Chapter Seventy-Three: Embarrassment
"A generation of Qi kings and princes died at the hands of rebellious ministers and thieves. If he hadn't met Jiang Qi, he wouldn't have been like this. Your Majesty, the demon girl has already been warned, so why hesitate? "Boguo Xuewu added a fire.
King Fuling was saddened by Xiao Zhaoxian's death, and said: "Father, no matter how deep the grudge between Jiang Qi and the Xiao family is, it has now become a state affair, the Xian clan rebelled, Wang Shizi was killed, and the prince was imprisoned. ”
One is an ally, the other is a parent, and they are all looking at themselves with anticipation at the moment, and they recognize him as a king and a father. If he can't come up with the emperor's decisiveness, I'm afraid he will really laugh at the world.
"That's it. Even if the pair of sisters are released, Jiang Qi will not miss me. Snow Witch, now that the matter is up to you, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"I will remove the troubles in your heart for Your Majesty."
"What is Snow Witch going to do?"
"Your Majesty, I will use the Xiao family's father and son as bait to lure her into the post house, and use the soul separation technique to force her to kill herself. If this plan fails, Your Majesty only needs to set up an ambush in the palace, and we will work together to introduce it into the ambush circle in the palace, so that she will not return; Moreover, secretly mobilizing the Imperial Forest Army to blockade the Imperial City, even if she can't be killed in the Imperial City, she will definitely not be able to get out of Ruian City. This triple defense is foolproof. ”
Emperor Qingli was displeased when he heard this: "Why did you introduce her into the palace?" There are many female dependents in the inner palace, how can you stop her? ”
"Your Majesty, if you want to kill Jiang Qi, you must be absolutely sure, once she is allowed to escape, there will be endless troubles. Just ask the whole world, where is it more in His Majesty's control than in the palace, His Majesty can raise the country's elite to ambush in advance, heavy defense, even if she has three heads and six arms, through one pass after another, to His Majesty's eyes, it is just the end of a strong crossbow. What's more, I set up a lore in the post house, maybe Jiang Qi won't be able to come to Miyagi at all, and he will die of anger. ”
Emperor Qingli saw that King Fuling was silent and asked, "What do you think?" ”
King Fuling did not hesitate for a moment: "It is all up to my father to decide." ”
Emperor Qingli nodded.
"There is another thing, father, there are many relatives in the imperial city, in order to prevent Jiang Qi's party from killing the emperor's relatives and relatives, the son suggested that the people of my Zhao royal family should be hidden in the palace that night in order to preserve."
And so it was. Prepare to go. Emperor Qingli finally made a decision.
Out of the palace gate, Boguo Xuewu thanked the king of Fuling: "The king of Fuling came really timely, and used the news of Xiao Zhaoxian's death to force His Majesty to make a decision. ”
There was wetness in the corners of King Fuling's eyes, and he clarified: "Xuewu misunderstood, Jiang Qi is more ruthless than I imagined, Zhaoxian is really in a different place......"
Only then did Xue Wu believe that he was not cooperating with his own acting.
"Jiang Qi hates the Xiao family like this, even Xiao Zhaoxian doesn't let go, and I want to meet this person even more."
Seeing that the King of Fuling was a little distracted, Xue Wu said tentatively: "If the King of Fuling is reluctant to give her, this seat can let her live." ”
King Fuling sighed, just think that he and Jiang Qi's past was a dream.
"If I really can't let her go, I won't continue to work with you. Snow Witch, this king chose to join forces with you, so he didn't think about backing down. ”
Previously, he had wavered and thought about trapping Jiang Qi with affection and letting her help him. It's no wonder that Jiang Qi is too smart and cold, and he doesn't fall into his trap at all. He had no choice but to abandon this move and take the most unpleasant path.
"King Fuling, there is one thing that is not clear in this seat, although Jiang Qi is not used by you, but it is also not used by others, this person is not a threat to you, why did you choose to join forces with this seat to get rid of her?"
Why? Because of love and hate, don't let others get her? No.
"You have also seen Jiang Qi's methods against the Xiao family, with the power of one person, he caused chaos in the world. Not to mention whether the civil strife in Nanyue and the counteroffensive of the Baimu clan in the southwest have anything to do with her, just saying that she turned the Qi country upside down, which is reassuring. The world is going to be reshuffled, and the king is afraid that there will be a woman as the emperor in the world, and she exists, and the king is afraid of it. ”
"I see. Then I wish King Fuling all his wishes come true as soon as possible and get what he wants. ”
Xue Wu smiled in his eyes, how could a mere Xiao Zhaoyi be worth his trip. What he was interested in was the thousands of miles of fertile land between Dawei and Boguo.
"King Fuling, those who achieve great things do not limit their children's affections, your heart is born to be an emperor, if Xiao Zhaoyi and King Liyang have half of your plans, why today. I'm waiting to compete with you in the future. ”
"Xue Wu rest assured, although there are thousands of miles of borderless land in the north, but the various tribes of the grassland are fighting each other, whether I am powerful or Bo wants to take it, it will take a hard battle. When the time comes, you and I will each be the lords of the same country, whether we are fighting or fighting, we will see you on the battlefield. ”
This is very true. In the past 40 years, Dawei wants to go north, Boguo wants to go south, all of them are bogey, afraid of being affected by a hair, and now the time is just right, and they have their own abilities in the troubled times. King Fuling, thanks to your invitation, I haven't seen a late-born descendant who can walk the world in this seat for decades, I really don't know if Jiang Qi is as you said. ”
"Snow Witch, you'll see her soon."
In the forty-second year of Dawei, on a winter night, Ruian City began a curfew at sunset, and the gates of the whole city were closed, and there was no light.
Since ancient times, the common people have only survived, and they are more sensitive than anyone in power to perceive the coming danger.
The full moon hung obliquely, the bright moonlight shone on the beast head on the door of the post house, and the door knocker hung lonely, with a bit of a trance of day.
At this moment, Jiang Qi was standing in front of the door in a snow-white fox fur, and there was silence in the post house.
Forbidden to speak and laugh and not listen to advice, she went down the mountain without permission and even on the night of her disappearance, she knew that things were tricky. I rummaged around the city and found no trace.
The only omission is in the palace, it seems that the Zhao family and Xuewu have joined forces, and Emperor Qingli is going to intervene. In their hands, she is a bogeyman, waiting for the other party to offer conditions.
Until the afternoon of this day, Xue Wu sent a war letter and deliberately lured her to come to the inn, I am afraid that she had already done an ambush.
Before leaving, Ji Niang dressed in military uniform and came to return to her life: Don't worry, the garrison outside the city doesn't want to come in tonight.
Emperor Gyeongli quietly transferred the heavy army of Gyeonggi to besiege the city, and this action could not escape their eyes.
Qingge said: Master, the two members of the Xiao family are still in the post house, but they are forbidden to speak and laugh and are locked up in the palace, and an ambush is set up in the palace......
The other party's ultimate goal is to lure her into the palace, but she really needs to break off with the Xiao family in order to bring the curtain down on this revenge journey.
Uncle Lin said: Child, when you come back, the old man will go to the southwest with you to see King Jing.
All the words she heard in her ears. But they can't match the few numbers sent by the Boguo Snow Witch: the Boguo Snow Witch coerced the two medicine slaves and the Xiao family and his son to wait for the big driver in the post house.
After staying in Ruian City for a few months, she was supposed to take revenge, but because of the advice of the Hidden Country Master back then, she couldn't take the initiative and could only be forced to take the call. She didn't expect to be able to bypass the Zhao royal family, but she didn't expect that from the eldest princess of Wangjing to Emperor Qingli and King Fuling, they were so keen to join in the fun.
Since they are all so unconvinced, let's compare.
Jiang Qi stepped forward, and the closed door burst open. Inside, the door slammed behind her, with an ominous omen.
Inside the door, she seemed to have stepped into another world, where was the lonely cold moon winter night outside the post house.
In front of me is a heavy fog, white and boundless, unable to see the surroundings clearly, making people inexplicably panicked. The nameless scent of flowers poured into his nose, and scattered snowflakes drifted to the ground.
There was a slight cracking sound under her feet, and she looked down to find herself stepping barefoot on the dry fallen leaves, and when she looked up again, she found rows of trees standing in the thick fog, when did she get to the woods?
There was a deep breathing sound in her ears, she turned back vigilantly, there was no figure around, and then listened carefully, it turned out to be her own breathing.
She exhaled slowly, walked forward barefoot, and saw a corner of the house with glazed tiles, and a wooden chain bridge spanning a pool of water.
She stood at one end of the bridge and looked forward, and saw a little girl with pigtails running from the other end, she stumbled forward, and called back happily as she ran: "Second brother, second brother, I am here." ”
This scene is so familiar, isn't it her and Xiao Zhaoyi back then.
Xiao Zhaoyi was far behind, and said casually: "Qi'er, be careful, slow down." There was a completely different cold light in his eyes.
The little girl had already arrived on the bridge, and when she saw that the boy had not come, she shook the iron rope and urged: "Second brother, hurry up, hurry up." ”
Xiao Zhaoyi said: "Qi'er, what do you see in the water?" Look, there's big fish. ”
"Is there one?" The little girl stuck her head out, unaware that half of her body was in danger.
"Look, the big fish has run away......" Xiao Zhaoyi seduced her again.
The little girl stepped forward again, slipped under her feet, and fell into the water with a thud.
"Second brother, save me. Woo ...... "She fluttered pitifully in the water, crying wow.
Xiao Zhaoyi shouted anxiously: "Qi'er, don't be afraid, I'll save you." But the corners of his mouth were strangely upturned, and he admired the ugliness of his half-sister's dying struggle, and got perverted pleasure from it.
The water poured into the little girl's mouth, and death came.
Xiao Zhaoyi did not move. It wasn't until out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of King Qi and Yiwen's figures rushing to hear the news that he bravely jumped into the water and shouted, "Sister Qi, don't be afraid, I'll save you." Father, here we are. ”
……
Jiang Qi closed his eyes, and knew the later story without reading it. After being rescued, she was simple-minded, holding Xiao Zhaoyi's hand tightly and muttering: "It was the second brother who saved me, Qi'er likes the second brother." ”
She was only three or four years old, and she didn't have the ability to perceive people's hearts later, so she mislooked at Xiao Zhaoyi by relying on a blind eye, and let him be loved by his mother and King Qi step by step, but he didn't know that this was a bloodthirsty wolf cub since he was a child.
She hated herself so much, she wanted to die by herself! blame yourself for being too ignorant and casting all your faults.
Hehehehe......he
Laughter came from all directions, and someone watched her reaction from another place as if they were looking at a bronze mirror.
"Welcome to see your own heart mirror." Said the owner of the voice.
"Boguo Xuewu, I was invited to come." Jiang Qi couldn't see him, and there was still a mist around him.
"Shhhh Don't talk, keep going. The owner of the voice seduced her.
