Chapter 53: Yiquan pursues the soldiers
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, how are you?"
The earthquake came suddenly, and the Empress Dowager Kezuhun hurried to the bedroom of Emperor Murong Wei of Yan, at this moment, all her worries were a mother's unadulterated false expression.
It's not that she doesn't love her children, it's just that in the face of power, she prefers the latter.
"Queen Mother, the emperor is fine, don't worry."
Murong Wei hurriedly got up from the imperial chair, and when it came to the tremor, he didn't notice it.
If someone hadn't reported it, he wouldn't have thought about the earthquake on Long Street.
"It's good if there's nothing to do, if there's nothing to do, the queen mother will rest assured."
But Zuhun breathed a long sigh of relief, she reached out and touched her son's face, such a real touch can make her feel at ease.
"The Queen Mother."
Murong Wei was stunned, since he ascended the throne, the queen mother has never ** him so gently as when he was a child.
The queen mother always said that to become an emperor, you must have the posture that an emperor should have, but I really forgot that he is just a young man who has not yet reached the weak crown.
But Zuhun suddenly came to her senses, she withdrew her hand suddenly, Wei'er is now the king of a country, how can she still take care of him like a child.
"Your Majesty, the mourning family has just received the news that Murong Chui and his son are extremely cunning, they did not go to Dragon City, but turned back from the north and went to the west!"
The Queen Mother's attitude changed very quickly, so that Murong Wei didn't react for a while, and the long-lost warmth of her mother disappeared in an instant, is this the sorrow that an emperor should choose?
"Westside?"
"Your Majesty, that's the road to the Qin State!"
"Heyang came to report, they killed my Dayan officials all the way, King Wu rebelled, and now he is confirmed, his ambition is clear to the world!"
Murong Wei couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, uncle, uncle, in the end, did you turn the other way around!
Use the blood of the officials of Yan State to open the way, this big Yan, this Yecheng, you really let it go!
Are you really going to compete with me?
"According to the queen mother, what should I do now?"
"They have crossed the Yellow River to the west, and Murong Qiang, the Duke of Xiping, has no time to rush back to transfer troops, and now the plan is to send Wu Gui, the lord of Yiquan, to pursue as soon as possible!"
"Pass the order of the lonely army, Yiquan Wu Gui, quickly adjust two thousand elite horses, intercept the king of Wu and the others, life and death are not mattered!"
At this moment, his eyes were no longer ruthless, but the decisiveness of an emperor.
It's better to kill the wrong one than to let it go!
****
As soon as the Queen Mother left, Murong Chong, the king of Zhongshan, urgently asked to see her.
"Brother Huang! Qin Guohu has a clear heart, and wants to use the matter of King Wu to incite chaos in Yecheng! ”
He handed over the arrows and letter evidence he found from the Fanyang Palace's palace to Emperor Murong Wei of Yan.
"On the surface, they are hypocritical, but in fact they are plotting against me!"
"There is such a thing!"
When Murong Wei looked at the letter, he was shocked on the spot.
Thinking that Qin Envoy looked simple, Qin Yan was good between the lines, but he didn't expect Qin Guo to secretly make a trick behind his back!
It's just that suddenly, he looked at the arrow again, just looking at the texture of this arrow, it seems to be produced by Yan State, based on this letter alone, and Emperor Fenghuang's personal speculation, it is too hasty to say that Qin State has the heart of Yan.
"Please give an order to the imperial brother and let me arrest Yang Ding back for interrogation! I'm afraid that they Qin State have other premeditated plans! ”
"Emperor Feng, you're late, this morning the Qin envoy resigned and left early on the grounds of the earthquake in Yecheng."
"What! I'm going to the city gates! ”
"Wait!" Emperor Yan suddenly shouted at Murong Chong.
"Emperor Feng, no matter what the Qin State wants, now that the two countries of Qin and Yan are on good terms, we have not given the city, and it is already a loss. You must pay attention to your actions, and you must not damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries and give the world a false pretext. ”
"Compared to the matter of the Qin State, Yecheng has just been shaken, and you have to pay more attention to disaster relief."
Murong Chong was stunned for a moment, and replied slowly, "Brother Chen understands. ”
He could hear that the imperial brother just wanted to turn a blind eye to this matter.
He slowly retreated, and his heart was heavy and he didn't let go.
Diplomatic relations between the two countries?
Knowing the ambitions of the Qin State, how can we not take strict precautions, Yang Ding dares to commit a crime at the foot of my Dayan Capital, and our Dayan has the right to arrest him!
Does it have to be the day when the soldiers meet each other before the imperial brother can recognize the status quo of whether the two countries are on good terms?
"Yuan Xiang."
"The end will be."
"You take someone to dress up in disguise and go to the city gate to ambush everywhere to see if you can intercept Yang Ding."
Yuan Xiang was stunned, the prince was so concerned about Yang Ding's matter, how could he not act in person?
"If I come forward, I'm afraid it will damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries."
He sneered, as if he was laughing at himself, and he sighed helplessly.
****
"Murong Chong, the next time I Yang Ding comes to Yecheng again, it will be the day when your Yan Kingdom City is broken."
The man's eyes were contemptuous, and the knife was aimed directly at the young man's heart.
After a day and a night of tossing, he was really tired, leaning on the collapse, and quickly fell asleep.
But after a while, he woke up from the nightmare, and he suddenly clutched his heart, gasping for breath, as if there was a sense of oppression that he had never felt before, impartially, and choked his throat tightly.
He took a deep breath, but the dense beads of sweat on his forehead did not disappear.
"Yuan Xiang." He was half-propped up and shouted urgently.
"The minister is here." Yuan Xiang happened to come back from outside the palace, and vaguely heard the call of the King of Zhongshan, so he hurriedly rushed in.
Murong Chong wiped the sweat from his head, but he was still panting, he frowned and asked, "Is there any news from Yang Ding and his party?" ”
When Yuan Xiang heard this, his shoulders shook slightly, it seemed that the prince was very jealous of this person.
"When the subordinates went out of the palace to investigate, the Qin envoy and his party had already left Yecheng. I'm afraid that the thief Yang Ding also slipped out! ”
"Yang Ding, let you run away again!"
The young man burst out and slapped his palm on the edge of the couch, and the rosewood exploded in an instant, and the broken branches fell to the ground.
Yuan Xiang was taken aback and took half a step back.
"Check again!"
If you, Yang Ding, are still in Yecheng, then our contest will really begin!
"Subordinates take orders!"
****
Murong Chui and the others crossed the north bank of the Yellow River, changed horses, and continued to rush overnight, at this time they were not far from the border of Qin.
But they did not dare to relax, except for the work of drinking water, they were all walking day and night, and the day they arrived, the day earlier they were away from danger.
As for what will happen to the Qin State, they can't and have no intention of estimating, they only need to be sure of one thing, that is, the way back is certain death.
They had no choice but to move forward with their heads covered.
The night was thick and the wind was strong, and when everyone was tired from a day's journey, they only heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, and the dazzling light of the torches illuminated the dark forest strangely, as if they were looking forward to a contest.
"You escort your father first, and I will meet the enemy!"
Murong Ling looked back, the black armor and undulating firelight made him suddenly startled, there are not a few people coming!
"Big brother be careful!"
Murong Bao's brothers knew that the situation was urgent and could not be delayed, so they quickly protected their father and ran away.
