The envoy of the Tang State trembled across the square full of corpses, and when he was halfway there, a gust of wind blew, and the white cloth covering a corpse beside him suddenly lifted up, revealing the unrecognizable corpse below. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It can't be considered a corpse anymore, it should be said that it is a pile of rotten meat, if it were not for one of the human hands, and the complete eyeball on the top of the rotten flesh, it would not be possible to connect it with a human corpse.

"Vomit ......" The envoy of Tang Guo felt a tumbling in his stomach and opened his mouth to vomit, but because he didn't eat anything all night, he retched for a while but couldn't vomit anything.

The two guards next to him hurriedly ran over, re-covered the white cloth covering the corpse, glared at the envoy of the Tang State and returned to their positions.

The envoy of the Tang Kingdom stood on the side trembling, and it was not until the eunuch who led the way in front reminded him that he suddenly woke up, and hurriedly ran towards the main hall on the steps.

The eunuch sang loudly outside the main hall, and the sound of announcing his entry immediately came from inside, and the eunuch signaled, and the envoy of the Tang State hurriedly hunched his waist and walked inside, but because he was too nervous, he tripped over the threshold, and the whole person staggered and ran two steps before a flying pounce fell to the ground, and slipped from the door to the middle of the hall.

The people standing around knew what was going on, and they almost laughed when they saw the embarrassed appearance of the envoy of Tang Guo, but fortunately, many people who reacted quickly hurriedly gestured to everyone to be quiet, so there was no goof. After all, they are pretending to be the bitter master now, if they laugh on the spot, then how will they act later?

"Uh-huh. Prime Minister Li Si deliberately pretended to cough, one to remind everyone to pay attention, and the other to start entering the script mode. "Then the envoy of the Tang State, this is the palace of my Qin State, what kind of system do you have like this?"

"The lower official stumbled for a while, and stumbled for a while. The envoy of Tang Guo hurriedly tried to get up, but because he was too nervous, he stepped on his robe and almost fell again. The faces of the people around him twitched again, but they quickly held back. This guy didn't notice everyone's strange appearance because he kept his head down, and when he got up again, everyone was ready to look at each other angrily.

The envoy of the Tang Kingdom, who had just gotten up, secretly glanced at the surrounding environment, but it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he almost didn't lie down again. I saw that about seven or eight of the surrounding officials had obvious bandaged marks on their bodies, and the white cloth bands were wrapped around the wounds, which was very obvious. In addition, he also saw that some people had slight blood marks on their faces or palms, which belonged to the kind of minor injuries that scratched a little oily skin, but the number was very large.

These are not the most scary, the most scary is the King of Qin.

I saw a large bed under the imperial steps in front of King Qin, and a woman with a face like gold paper was lying on the bed. The envoy of the Tang State didn't recognize who it was at first, after all, this person was covered in a quilt, only revealing a bloodless face, and the ornaments on his head had been removed, which was obviously very different from what he could usually see. If it's an acquaintance, it's okay, he feels a little impressed by this woman, but he can't match it for a while. But after seeing the man glaring at him next to the bed, he suddenly understood who was on the bed.

"Damn, Miss Bai, what's wrong, won't be ......ridden by that spirit," the envoy of the Tang Kingdom felt that he probably wouldn't live long. He was more afraid of offending Bai Qi than offending King Qin, because King Qin was hindered by the diplomatic relations between the two countries, maybe he could spare him, but if Bai Bingyu died, Bai Qi would be able to let him go.

After the envoy of the Tang State guessed that the seriously injured man on the bed who smelled of medicine was Bai Bingyu, his eyes began to move upward, wanting to explain a thing or two to King Qin, but when he raised his head, his whole body began to tremble.

I saw that on the royal steps, King Qin was not sitting on the throne, but lying on a temporary sleeping couch, his head was not crowned, but wrapped around a circle of gauze, and the blood oozing from under the gauze could be faintly seen.

Standing beside King Qin was the Ninth Princess, who had the highest voice among the younger generation of the Qin Kingdom, but at this time, the Ninth Princess had one arm hanging from her neck with a bandage, and a splint was on the outside, which was obviously a fracture!

As soon as the envoy of the Tang State saw this situation, he instantly felt a blackness in front of him, and the whole person staggered again and almost sat on the ground. Originally, he was not so frightened, the key is that he didn't sleep all night last night, plus he didn't eat or drink, and his body was almost to the limit, which would be mentally fluctuating and naturally unbearable.

Fortunately, the envoy of Tang Guo only shook it twice, and he didn't really faint, but he probably hoped that he could faint.

"Big big ...... King. The envoy of the Tang State stammered a little when he spoke, and the whole person was constantly trembling. Before, he still felt that he was the envoy of the Tang Kingdom, and it was impossible for King Qin to touch him if he said anything, but now he felt that he was afraid that he was really going to die. Not to mention the nearly 1,000 corpses in the square outside, just the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty plus the damage of King Qin are terrible, and it is not too much to cut him ten times.

King Qin, who was sleeping on the couch, pretended to be lacking in energy, did not speak, but weakly raised a hand to signal, and then Ying Ying stood up. "The lower echelons are the envoys of the Tang Kingdom?"

"Yes, yes, it's a villain. "He doesn't care about any etiquette at this time, let's think about how to save his life first. In normal diplomacy, he certainly can't call himself a villain in another country, because he represents the Tang Kingdom, but if he plays a big name now, wouldn't that be a death? He is not the kind of person with integrity, and he also grabbed this mission, because he thought that this was an opportunity to brush up his merits, and who knew that it was actually a business with a severed head! I would have known that I would not have come to kill him!

"Do you recognize this person?" Ying Ying shouted and pointed to the side.

Two black-armored guards dragged one of them to the Tang envoy, and one of the guards grabbed the man's hair and pulled his head back, forcing him to raise his face and face towards the Tang envoy.

As soon as he saw this person, the envoy of the Tang Kingdom almost fainted again. As soon as "Shao ......" shouted a word, he quickly stopped, because he suddenly thought that in this case, it seemed that he should not recognize the person in front of him.

It's a pity that as soon as Yingying above waved her hand, Helan, who was gagged, was dragged down without saying a word.

"Looks like our investigation is correct, and you know each other. Ying Ying stood on it and said coldly: "Tang Guo is really a good means." First of all, you, the envoy of the Tang Kingdom, will send this demon king with incomplete seals into my Great Qin Palace under the pretense of offering gifts, and then the young sect master of the Tang State Talisman Sect will go out to unlock the seal in my palace, release the demon king, and want to eradicate all the important people in my Qin Kingdom. It's really a good calculation, a good means. ”

Ying Ying gritted her teeth when she said above, but the envoys of the Tang State below listened to it with fear. "The young sect master broke the seal, almost released the demon king, no wonder so many people died, no wonder the people of the Qin State had such an attitude towards themselves. Understood, everything understood. It's just that my little life can't be saved!"

Seeing that the envoy of the Tang State wanted to explain, Bai Qi immediately pretended to be out of control, shouted that he wanted to avenge his daughter, raised his hand and smashed the ivory wat board in his hand, and followed the people to rush up. Meng Tian rushed out to intercept according to the previous script, shouting to calm him down.

The envoy of the Tang State didn't expect Bai Qi to suddenly erupt, he was completely unprepared, he was smashed on the head by the wat board, and the blood came down in an instant, after all, Bai Qi is a cultivator, and his level is not low, even if he looks like it, it can't be too fake, and it is easy to make flaws if he smashes lightly.

The wat board not only smashed the head of the envoy of the Tang Kingdom, but also knocked off his crown, and the whole person looked embarrassed. In normal times, the envoy of the Tang Kingdom would have jumped up a long time ago, but now he was like a quail, holding his head in horror and squatting on defense, until he saw Bai Qi being stopped by Meng Tian before he dared to pick up his crown.

"General Bai, please also pay attention to your words and deeds. This palace knows your mood, but this is the main hall, and you are the general of the King of Qin. ”

Bai Qi pretended to be a little calmer, and bowed to Ying Ying: "The minister was emotional for a while, and asked the king to atone for his sins." ”

King Qin on the couch raised his hand, Ying Ying immediately bent down and leaned his ear over, King Qin's mouth moved, but the envoy of the Tang State below couldn't hear what he said. Ying Ying quickly stood up again, and then said to Bai Qi: "Father said that he didn't care about this matter, General Bai's beloved daughter was seriously injured, and it is normal for people to be emotional, so you don't have to mind, but please note that you can't do it again." ”

"Your Majesty knows. Bai Qi accepted the criticism, but turned around and glared at the envoy of the Tang State again, and that look seemed to say, "Wait, I'll kill you sooner or later." ”

The envoy of the Tang State is really about to pee now, and the fierce man who kills the most people in the world is worried about trying to kill him, who can stand this Nima!

The envoy of the Tang State was trembling, and above the imperial steps, Ying Ying said again: "The conspiracy to slaughter my Qin King City, even if the demon king harms the common people, the despicable behavior of your Tang State is extremely hateful, but my Great Qin is a state of etiquette and a country of gentlemen, and we still know the truth that the two countries do not fight each other." Therefore, this palace is now here to officially inform you that I, Daqin, have declared war on your Tang State, and will send troops soon. You go back to Tang Kingdom first and tell the Tang King, don't say that our Great Qin does not declare war, you don't want to be embarrassed, but I, Great Qin, want to talk about etiquette. ”

"The King...... King...... No, princess...... We in Tang Kingdom really don't know about this!"

The envoy of the Tang State now felt that he was absolutely hopeless. The Tang King asked him to come to the Qin State to humiliate the Qin King, and he was good, and he directly brought a war book back, and the Tang King could spare him? Now it's just that the Qin people want to kill him, but when he returns to the Tang Kingdom, it will become that both the Tang and the Qin people want to kill him. Nima, what about the merit that I said was good? Am I here to die? No, I can't just go back, otherwise this little life will really not be saved. The Qin people also have to take care of the two countries not to cut the troops, and the Tang King will not be soft at all when he cuts people.

"What else do you have to say?" Of course, Ying Ying didn't want Qin Tang to go to war, so she still had to leave a chance for him.

As soon as he heard Ying Ying's words, the envoy of Tang almost cried, and it was good that he could explain it, it was a turning point.

"The king, the princess Mingjian! Although the spirit horse was sent by the villain on behalf of the Tang Kingdom, what happened after that was really not what my Tang Kingdom meant!"

"Hmph, who doesn't know that Baoding Xuanzong is the protector of your Tang Kingdom, and the young sect master of Baoding Xuanzong personally came to my Tang Kingdom to attack, what else do you have to quibble?"

"It's not like this, it's not like this. The envoy of the Tang State thought for a moment and suddenly said, "The princess is clear." Baoding Xuanzong has a transcendent status in my Tang Kingdom, and the young sect master is the only son of the great sect master, and it is too late for the big sect master to cherish it, if my Tang Kingdom really has a plan to release the demon king, then this trip is tantamount to a suicide action, how can the great sect master let his beloved son perform such a task?

Ying Ying pretended to think, and an official below suddenly stood up and said, "King, princess, what the envoy of Xia Guan Jue said does have some truth. If this matter is really premeditated by the Tang Kingdom, just send a dead soldier to come, and it will never sacrifice the young sect master of Baoding Xuanzong to carry out the assassination. ”

Meng Tian also stood up at this time and said: "The king, the princess, although they are very indignant about Tang Guo emotionally, Meng Tian also feels that this matter is a coincidence. ”

"What did General Meng say about this?" asked Ying Ying.

"Ben General was ordered to garrison the Qin-Tang border, so it can be said that he has some understanding of the troop movement in the border area of the Tang State. If the Tang State really plotted such a major event, it would inevitably deploy a large number of troops on the border, and once our royal city was slaughtered, they might as well immediately overwhelm the border with a large army and take advantage of the leaderlessness of our country to invade our country. However, in fact, Ben Jiang did not receive a report of a large number of troops on the border from the Tang State, so Ben Jiang felt that this incident was an accident. ”

"Thank you, General Meng, for justifying my Tang Kingdom. The envoy of Tang Guo hurriedly felt.

Who knew that Meng Tian immediately said to each other: "Get out of the way, who has justified your name." General Ben just thinks that my Great Qin is not ready for soldiers and horses, and rashly starting a war is just a needless loss of the names of the generals, who wants to defend you Tang people. ”

The envoy of the Tang State was blocked for a while, but it was not easy to attack, so he could only hunch his waist and wait for the ruling from above.

Ying Ying asked the meaning of the officials below, and then the surrounding officials came out one after another to express their opinions, some people said that it was intentional by Tang Guo, some said it was an accident, and some were neutral, anyway, there were all kinds of ideas, but in general, most people were inclined to be accidents.

Although the envoy of the Tang State was still apprehensive when he heard the conversation between these people, he was finally not so desperate.

After listening to the opinions, Ying Ying pretended to discuss with King Qin, and after a while she stood up again and said: "Whether this matter was an accident or premeditated cannot be determined for a while, but the losses suffered by my Great Qin Wangcheng are irrefutable, and the sources of losses are all from your Tang people, and you can't shirk this responsibility."

However, my father, the king, has mercy on the people of the two countries and does not want to start a war lightly, so I am willing to exercise restraint and give you a chance to explain. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness Princess Xie!" the envoy of the Tang State hurriedly thanked him. At this time, it is necessary to pretend to be a grandson.

Ying Ying waited for him to finish his worship and continued: "Now General Meng will escort you back to Tang as soon as possible, and after you go back, report this matter to the Tang King in detail, and inform the Tang King to send enough envoys to my Great Qin to explain the matter as soon as possible." As for the young sect master of the Baoding Xuanzong...... Temporarily detained in my Great Qin King City. Rest assured, our country will not hurt him in the slightest until the matter is clearly explained. ”

"Yes, yes, the little one understands. ”

Ying Ying nodded lightly, then turned to Meng Tian, "General Meng, after you send the envoy of the Tang State out of the country, you will immediately rectify the military affairs, and all border garrisons will enter a wartime state. In a few days, General Bai will reorganize his armaments in the royal city, ready to support you at any time, and if there is an incident on the border, he will send a report quickly, and the army will be able to set off to help on the same day after receiving the battle report. ”

"The last general commanded. Meng Tian saluted and then turned to the envoy of the Tang Kingdom and stretched out his hand: "Special envoy, please." No matter how slow the action is, I'm afraid that Brother Bai won't be able to restrain it. ”

As soon as the envoy of the Tang State heard what he dared to say, he turned around and ran quickly, and Bai Qi cooperated desperately to release the murderous aura behind him, so frightened that this guy almost ran out with a roll.

It wasn't until Meng Tian took the envoy of the Tang Kingdom away completely out of sight that a burst of laughter suddenly broke out in the hall. King Qin sat up from the sickbed with a snort, laughed and said, "Hahahaha, your Qing family is doing well, then the envoy of the Tang State is afraid that he will be seriously ill when he goes back." ”

Ying Ying also said immediately: "The key is that this matter will develop, as long as Tang Guo doesn't want to start a war with my Great Qin, he has to apologize to us." ”

Taiwei Guan De said: "Tang Guo has no intention of starting a war with my Great Qin, and he will never suddenly change his strategy, this matter is certain." ”

Imperial Doctor Lu Tianzheng also followed: "That young sect master Helan is still in our hands, this is a hostage." Tang Guo threw a rat bogey, and he must first redeem this young sect master with a heavy amount of money. I'm just taking the opportunity to knock on a stroke, so that I can vent my anger for everyone. ”

Bai Bingyu, who was lying on the bed and cosplayed the seriously injured, suddenly sat up, turned over and jumped to the ground, and then asked, "Do I want to disguise myself in the mansion during this time?"

King Qin also thought of this, and hurriedly called Tianyou, who was hidden on the side of the main hall, over. The previous plans were all completed by Tianyou and everyone together, so now King Qin habitually wants to listen to Tianyou's opinion, after all, the first half seems to have a significant effect.

Tianyou was not polite, and directly began to elaborate on the details of the arrangements after that. In fact, it is just the guidance of public opinion in the future, but there is no computer network in the Shenzhou Continent, no mobile phones, and no television, so the propaganda work can only rely on the gossip ability of the three aunts and six wives.

King Qin and the ministers only had a understanding of public opinion by spreading rumors, but Tianyou, who had been bombarded with all-round information in his previous life, was familiar with it, and casually introduced a few small means to make everyone feel that they had benefited a lot.

In fact, the ministers around King Qin are all human spirits, and they just haven't thought about this aspect before, as long as they are a little thorough, they can create and play a lot of ways by themselves. The natives of the Shenzhou Continent may not have as broad their horizons as Tianyou, but their brains are definitely not stupid.

"So, I have to return to Zixiao Palace as soon as possible?" Bai Bingyu asked.

Tianyou nodded and said, "Yes, you are now seriously injured, and you need to be seriously injured, so you need to be sent back to the division for treatment as soon as possible." Of course, after returning to Zixiao Palace, you won't be able to pretend, and you don't need to pretend anymore. Just let my Great Qin and the envoys of various countries see that you are being sent away in a seriously injured state. In the end, most of this matter could not be hidden, but now that we have created an established fact, the matter of the spirit riding will not dare to be mentioned by the Tang people anyway.

There is also that Helan, the meaning of leaving him is indeed a hostage, but it is not about the ransom, and I, Daqin, do not lack that money. The real meaning of leaving him is to force the Tang people to bow their heads and admit that all this is their fault, as long as they still want to redeem Helan, they must knock out their teeth and swallow blood, and swallow this bitter fruit. ”

"Hahahaha, seconds. Even if the Tang people found something suspicious and knew that this was our ghost, they had to obediently comply. This is even worse than we used to!" said many ministers with a smile.

Tianyou thought for a while and said: "Tang Guo will definitely not dare to make any moves before the Helan handover is completed, the key is after." Normally, they shouldn't have made any moves, after all, they planned to trap us first, and we have the ability to retaliate back. But don't be careful. The Tang State should not be able to do a full-scale war, but it is still very possible to use some small means. ”

"Well, this has to be guarded against. You should perform your duties and take precautions, especially the generals who are in charge of the troops. ”

"Your Excellency understands. There was an answer.

After discussing for a while, everyone had breakfast in the palace and then turned their backs on King Qin to dismiss. After all the ordinary officials were gone, King Qin began to ask Tianyou. "The widow said that he would give you a reward before, but I didn't expect that before this reward came down, you made another meritorious service, just together, what reward you want to say. ”

King Qin also said, of course Tianyou can't ask for things casually, so he can only say politely: "Actually, the grass people didn't do anything, they just came up with some ideas, which seem to be important, but in fact they are just auxiliaries, and they mainly rely on the joint efforts of everyone." ”

After hearing this, King Qin didn't speak immediately, but thought about it before saying, "That's good." Since you said that your merits seem to be important, but in fact they are average, then I will reward you with a treasure that seems to be valuable, but in fact is useless. Saying that, King Qin beckoned, "Come on, go and bring the spirit horse that Tang Guojin sacrificed, and reward it to the Orion of Qingyuan Village." ”

"Huh?" Tianyou opened his mouth and was a little sluggish for a while, not happy or unhappy, he didn't expect King Qin to joke at all. "Please, I'll be polite, you just look at it and give me some rewards, what does it mean to give me a demon king horse soul? I took this thing and used it with a wool thread? The top masters of Tang and Qin have tried it, this thing is a waste product, you really let me play with it?"

Anyway, King Qin was so decided anyway, and Tianyou could only accept it helplessly, and he wanted to cry without tears and walked out of the palace with a time bomb. Fortunately, this time King Qin didn't cheat him, and added a powerful seal on top of the spirit riding horse soul, which is said to be a hidden master in the palace. I don't know how powerful it is.,Anyway, this thing won't go away without an outside box now.,It's just that it occasionally shakes endlessly.,Fortunately, the amplitude is not large.,God bless the right to recall the feeling of the phone vibrating.。

After returning to Baifu, Bai Bingyu was arranged to return to Zixiao Palace, and the trip was postponed to the second day, and whether it was Bai Bingyu who left, even Yingying and a few of them left together.

It wasn't until Tianyou sent them out of the city that he suddenly remembered that Ying Ying owed him the gold he hadn't given yet, and Tianyou had no headache because he didn't see the gold that should have been given to the female assassin. "You won't want me to pay for it myself, will you? This princess is too unreliable!"

Reluctantly returned to Baifu, Tianyou wanted to cultivate but didn't dare, thinking about the aura of the last time, for fear of destroying another courtyard. Bai Qi has been busy reorganizing the army during this time, so he simply lived directly in the barracks. Although the Qin State did not plan to really send the Central Army to the Qin-Tang border, it seemed that it had to be sufficient. Poor Tianyou couldn't even find anyone to ask, so he could only enrich his theoretical knowledge first, and it happened that there was a book pavilion in Baifu, which contained some superficial knowledge about cultivation. Although they are some of the most basic things, they are just right for God Bless.

Half a month passed unconsciously, and the explanation staff sent by the Tang State finally came, but it was not a special envoy who came, but an envoy group, with more than 200 people, three of whom were said to be high-ranking officials of the Tang State, and a high-level of Baoding Xuanzong, the scale of which could be called luxurious.

Anyway, how to deal with Tianyou and King Qin have said in detail, during this time, Qin State's public opinion guidance has also done a very good job, and all countries have already believed that Tang State almost released a demon king in King Qin City, which can be regarded as completely pushing Tang State to the forefront.

When the Tang envoys were received in the palace, Tianyou left the royal city, because the time for Zixiao Palace to select disciples was approaching. According to the arrangement, the people who were selected on the Qin side must go over collectively, and the Qin State will send special personnel to protect them, after all, these people may be the pillars of the country in the future, and all countries need to take care of them.

Compared with other people in the same industry, who suffer from gains and losses, and worry about not being selected, Tianyou is much easier. Ying Ying and the others said before leaving, they went back first to escort Bai Bingyu on the surface, but in fact, they went back to call him the front station and help him arrange a special quota first. As long as the results of the Tianyou entrance exam are not bad, you can't see it, and it's basically a quota within it. With this assurance, he was still worried about something, and the journey was completely as if he was traveling.

As easy as Tianyou, there is also Guan Qingye, this guy has real skills, and his strength is not the top among his peers, but at least he is outstanding, so there is no pressure. In addition, this guy actually has the same quota as Tianyou, because he is the grandson of the Taiwei Guan De of the Qin State, so Zixiao Palace will sell face to some extent, as long as the qualifications are not too poor, they will generally be given entry qualifications.

The main ones who really suffer from gains and losses are those poor people, these people's qualifications are good and bad, but most of them have a very poor foundation, because there are no conditions to cultivate in advance, and they can only rely on outsiders to fund. Of course, this situation cannot be compared with the children of the big family, even if the congenital conditions are good, they will be a head worse than the children of the big family.

That guy from the mountain has been extremely anxious for a while, but he is not hostile to Tianyou now. Tianyou took the initiative to show favor when he was dealing with the spirit horse in the palace before, and then when he returned to Baifu, everyone trained together for half a month, and he and Tianyou have become friends. Although this guy has a bad temper, he is a little cautious, he doesn't have much knowledge, and he has a kind of small peasant mentality, but he is quite simple, so it is too easy for a human spirit like Tianyou to get close to him.

The team participating in the selection walked for more than ten days before arriving at the border village between the Qin State and the neutral zone. There are no walls, no separation zones, and no clear borders. This is mainly due to the fact that the neutral zone is not an independent country and does not have an army, so the walls are meaningless.

In addition, the area of the Shenzhou continent is very large, several times larger than the Asian region on the earth, so although there are ten countries squeezed on one continent plus a large neutral zone, in fact, the area of each country is not small. These countries are very large and unproductive, so they don't have a large population, unlike the earth, which is densely packed with people. Humans here are gathered in cities and villages, and there are large areas of no-man's land between cities and villages. There is obviously no need to set up checkpoints in such places, so the borders of the neutral zone are not clear in the first place. It is only known that the border village is the outermost village of the Qin State, and the next village before it is the village in the neutral zone.

"It's no wonder that the cultivators cultivated by each country have never been able to fight the major factions in the neutral zone, it turns out that it's not just a matter of exercises. As the team passed through the border village, Tianyou clearly felt that the concentration of aura around him was getting higher and higher, if it was true that the aura was getting stronger the more they went to the core of the neutral zone, then it was not difficult to understand why there were so many cultivators in the neutral zone. (To be continued.) )
