Chapter 138: The hostages of the whole city enter the tiger's den
Yu Guifei listened to him call his full name without feeling, slowly approached his ear, and said softly: "Ning Jue, you'd better think clearly, do you want Ning Liucheng's life, or protect Gu Qingwan's safety?" It's not a difficult choice! ”
After a pause, she reiterated with a wink, "Moreover, this palace wants to catch Gu Qingwan only because she is useful, and she will not want her life for the time being." However, your own brother Hongu doesn't dare to guarantee it. Others may not know, but this palace knows, you must care about Ning Liucheng in your heart, right? What's more, Gu Qingwan has nothing to do with you! ”
Ning Jue listened to her words, his fists couldn't help but clench tightly, he really wanted to strangle the woman in front of him, but she was in control of Ning Liucheng's life, so he had to let it go.
He closed his eyes, turned the horse's head and flew away directly, no longer caring what the jade concubine did.
Yugui looked at Ning Jue's choice with satisfaction, and ordered people to prepare boats to cross the river.
Gu Qingwan and the others were able to retreat to Huaicheng, and they heard the soldiers outside come in and report that Xiyu was going to attack Huaicheng again.
Chen Baixing took a sip and scolded the Xiyu people for making inches, and then turned around to prepare for the battle.
"Listen to the people in Huaicheng, let your princess come out, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Under Huaicheng, the leading generals of Xiyu shouted for battle, but the soldiers of Huaicheng scoffed.
"Do you think you are something, let our princess come out, and our princess will come out?" One of the guards scoffed.
The general who was calling the battle below looked stiff, "Come on, bring that group of Diao people up!" ”
Soon, some soldiers escorted the people in Pingzhou City to the front of the battle, and more than 200 people looked particularly dazzling against the backdrop of the dark Xiyu soldiers.
"What does that mean?" The Qin family army, who was guarding the Huaicheng, looked at the people of Xiyu in front of the battle, with a blank expression, "They don't want to threaten us with the lives of the people of Xiyu, right?" ”
Is this a mistake?
"Hey, what do you mean by that?" A young general of the Qin family army squinted and asked.
"Qin Jiajun listen, give you a cup of tea, if we don't see your princess again, we will kill someone, and if we don't come out, we will kill one every quarter of an hour until your princess comes out!"
When Qin Jiajun heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, the Xiyu people meant to force their princess to come out? Moreover, how can they do it with more than 200 people?
The young general barely calmed down, "Do you think it's useful to threaten our princess with Xiyu's people?" That's your own people, what does it have to do with Mobei? ”
"It's not related to you that your group of shrimp soldiers and crabs will know, hurry up and report to your princess, otherwise don't let more people die because of her." The commander who led the troops disdained to be authentic.
Shameless!
The people of the Qin family couldn't help but be angry, are the people of Xiyu full of food? I actually want to threaten the people in Pingzhou City!
The Xiyu soldiers underground looked at the Qin family's hesitation and were thinking about what to do, after all, taking the people as hostages was a shame for a soldier, not to mention their own people. When this battle is over, I am afraid that their Xiyu army will be notorious.
However, even the Nine Emperor Princes can't control this kind of thing, what can they do, Concubine Yu only commands behind her, but it is they who are infamous on their backs.
Hades fights, and imps suffer. That's probably the case, right?
A moment later, Yu Guifei rode forward from the back of the crowd, looked at the hesitant Qin Jiajun, and a sneer hooked up on the corner of her lips, and directly pulled out a sword from the hand of a soldier next to her and stabbed it at a person kneeling in front of the formation. The sword hooked a blood injection from inside, spraying behind the trembling people. The people who were very close couldn't help but scream and squeezed to the side in fright.
This change is not to mention the Qin family's army, even the soldiers of Xiyu can't help but have a sense of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox. They must be ready to give their lives whenever the superiors need it. The army of Xiyu looked at the cruel Jade Guifei and felt infinite disgust in his heart, but who made her His Majesty's favorite concubine?
"If you don't want more people to die because of her, let Gu Qing come out!" Concubine Yu said loudly to the Qin family army on the city wall.
"Joke! You don't care about your own people, why should our princess listen to you? Don't make the reason so high-sounding, thinking that the people are brainless? The young general on the city wall said contemptuously.
Originally, at the beginning, they were resentful of Gu Qingwan because of Concubine Yu's words, thinking that they were all affected by Gu Qingwan, but later after listening to Qin Jiajun's words, they suddenly realized that they were really born and raised in Xiyu! Even the concubines didn't care about their lives, why did the princess of Mobei, who had nothing to do with them, enter this Longtan tiger's den for them?
"You are presumptuous!" After speaking, Yu Guifei picked up the sword that was still dripping blood and slashed at the body of another person.
The people closed their eyes in despair, waiting for the slaughter of Yu Guifei and Xiyu soldiers.
"Dang" The sound of weapon handover sounded, numbing Yu Guifei's arm, and the sword in her hand fell out directly, and fell to the ground with a "clang".
Yu Guifei looked at the sword that was knocked down by the stone, and turned her head to stare fiercely at Ning Jue who was riding from behind.
"Yu Guifei, don't go too far!" Ning Jue's eyes were cold, and he stared straight at her.
"This group of Diao people can sacrifice for the country, and that is also their honor!"
"Shut up, the war of the nation, the war is not for the people. If you dare to do this today, tomorrow there will be thousands of people to play, not to mention taking Huaicheng, even the people of Xiyu will also attack it in groups! Ning Jue squinted slightly and looked at her coldly.
"This palace is a small family for everyone!" Yu Guifei quibbled. She doesn't care what the group is up or not, all she has to do is catch Gu Qingwan, and after completing the task, she will retire after completing the task, what does it matter to her that trouble?
"You are a communiqué personal vendetta! Don't think that this prince doesn't know your purpose, you and the princess of Mobei are only afraid that you have a personal grudge, right? Ning Jue sneered.
"You..."Yu Guifei's heart was broken, and she was speechless for a while, only looking at him hatefully.
"You'd better stop it as soon as possible, otherwise this prince will definitely not let you go!"
"Hmph, after all, you're not the woman who protects Gu Qingwan's water-based poplar flower?" Concubine Yu snorted lightly, ignored Ning Jue no longer, and stared straight at the city gate.
"Come on, kill!" Her eyes were full of cruelty. This time, it was not the Xiyu soldiers who killed people, but the people brought by Yu Guifei from Dongli. They raised their knives and killed three people in one go.
The people of the Qin family army looked at the panic and despair of the people of Xiyu under the city, and a figure quietly slipped away and went to the city to tell Gu Qingwan, but at this time, Gu Qingwan was defeated with a face on his face, Nishang and Zhuyin were waiting beside him, his eyes were full of worry.
Gu Qingwan had morning sickness for a while, he couldn't eat anything, and he would vomit out even after drinking the medicine. This will lie on the soft couch for a short rest. Gu Qingwan raised her hand and gently stroked the baby who was tossing her in her abdomen, her eyebrows and eyes were full of helpless smiles.
Baby, do you have to toss your mother so much? Is it that your mother has neglected you recently, and you are losing your temper in protest? Or are you also missing your dad as much as your mother?
"Princess, something happened outside the city." Yue Thirteen walked in quickly.
"What's wrong?" Gu Qingwan, who had just cleaned up, immediately sat up, "The Xiyu army has attacked Huaicheng?" ”
"Yes and no." Yue Thirteen said ambiguously, and his face was distorted violently, "This time, it was Xiyu's Yu Guifei who was calling outside, saying that she wanted to see the princess, and she also threatened the lives of the people of Pingzhou." ”
When Gu Qingwan heard this, he locked his eyebrows deeply, it seems that she has to come forward this time?
"Concubine Ben went over and took a look." Gu Qing stood up and asked Zhuyin to draw some heavy makeup for her to cover the pale weakness on her face.
"No, the princess, you are weak now, and the other party is menacing, your safety is the most important thing." Yue Thirteen stopped.
"It's okay, Concubine Ben just went over to take a look and see what kind of fame she wanted." Gu Qing's eyes were slightly dark, and his tone was cold.
Under the city, Ning Jue watched one after another people die at the hands of the Dongli people, his eyes were red, and now, he finally knew that only power could be convincing. It's a pity that he has no power and power, even if he is a manager, he is powerless in the face of this situation. He wants to protect Ning Liucheng's life, and he also wants to protect Qingwan's safety, so he can only let Yu Guifei do whatever he wants.
"Squeak-" The heavy city gate slowly opened from the inside, and a white list figure slowly appeared in front of everyone, and there were only two people behind her, a man and a woman.
"It's the princess, it's the princess of Mobei!" The moment the people below saw Gu Qingwan come out, tears came out of their eyes, they all had a certain death mentality, if they had no feelings for Gu Qingwan before, and even had some resentment, but at this moment the dissatisfaction in their hearts all disappeared, and they didn't even want to see her come out to face the vicious Yu Guifei.
knew it was a ruse, knew it was a conspiracy, but she still walked out. With an indifferent look and a cold temperament, even if she is only alone compared to the thousands of troops of Concubine Yu, it makes people feel at ease inexplicably.
She walked towards the Jade Concubine step by step, standing a few feet away from them, looking at them with a raised eyebrow and a light smile.
Ning Jue couldn't help but feel a dull pain in his heart when he saw Gu Qingwan with a cold expression, and only now did he understand that the man who was presumptuous on the outside and arrogant on the inside was the most suitable for her, because he could do whatever it took to protect her and prevent her from being harmed, but he could only watch her go towards the conspiracy.
"Gu Qingwan, you are finally willing to come out!" Yu Guifei looked at Gu Qingwan, who was still dazzling even in plain clothes, and snorted coldly.
"Isn't your purpose to force this concubine out? Now that the concubine has come out, you can let the people go. Gu Qingwan raised his eyes and said lightly.
"Hmph, they are just cheap lives, and it is also their honor to be able to exchange them for the princess of Mobei!"
