242. The war began

The two paper sticks were passed down by the flying pigeon to the prince of Xiliang, explaining the affairs in the Nanshao Palace, including his daily routine.

When Concubine Qin saw that she was exposed, she didn't beg for mercy, but said coldly: "Now that I have been caught by you, what else can I say?" It's just that the king, your so-called grace is not a favor to me at all, because the way you look at me is telling me that you are not looking at me, but her. ”

There was a sharp pain in her jaw, and Nan Yuechen's fingers pinched there almost crushed her bones, and she knew that she had hit his heart, and touched his scales because she mentioned "her". I knew that it would be useless for me to talk too much at the moment, but I just wanted to vomit it out as soon as possible, and spit out all the resentment in my heart for a long time: "King, do you know what I can tolerate the most? The hardest thing to tolerate me is that a living person can't compare to a dead person, Ning Ranqing is dead, but you are looking for her shadow on my face and body. You think I don't know about the so-called graces, but it's just because I have a face that looks like hers. ”

Shen Mo, who had been standing next to him with an expressionless face, was moved because of those three words, he had long known that this Qin Concubine looked very similar to her, but she was just like her, and had no charm.

"Humph!" Nan Yue Chen shook off heavily, walked back to his seat, and said condescendingly: "It's your honor to treat you as a substitute." Since you don't want it, then take it back. Do you know what happens to the enemy country's spies? Ling Chi was put to death and beheaded, and you are a woman, so you usually suffer more than that. "I was very satisfied to see that Concubine Qin's face turned pale in an instant, no matter what dynasty, female captives were usually treated harshly, most of them were used as military prostitutes, and then executed.

"If you're smart, tell me everything you know, who is the person behind you?"

Concubine Qin's face flashed with a different color: "Hasn't the king already found out, why do you bother to ask me?" Nan Yuechen pursed his lips and smiled, took two steps forward, and his eyes were compelling: "Therefore, you are so easy to be fooled?" ”

At this moment, something suddenly spit out from Concubine Qin's mouth and went straight to the door in front of him. Shen Mo stood beside him, and hurriedly dodged over to block it, but it seemed that there was no way to avoid it, but at an inch away, he was caught by Nanyue Chen.

Shen Mo's eyes turned slightly, he always knew that the king's martial arts were not weak, but he had never seen him make a move, and it was really hidden. The hidden weapon that shot out was a black nail, this Qin Concubine knew martial arts, and it was not easy to hide the secret weapon in her mouth with this trick. "Ahh

It turned out that her secret weapon raid was not intended to kill, but to lure away Shen Mo around her and then commit suicide. Nan Yuechen frowned, thoughtfully, as far as the fierceness of her suicide in the end, this temperament was very similar to her.

Concubine Qin's head was bloody, she couldn't speak, the blood filled her eyes, and through the blood red, she seemed to see a familiar face, as handsome as a person in a dream. Nanyue Chen stared at that place, and the red in his eyes opened up little by little, turning into the red in the snow of Beibi Mountain two years ago, which was particularly dazzling.

His chest began to heat up, and there he was close to the white cloth stained with her blood. As if only in this way would he feel close to her, never far away.

Concubine Qin on the ground finally closed her eyes, a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and her breathing stopped.

"Let's bury it." Spit out three words without emotion.

Xiao Xizi was already stunned when he saw it from the side, and when he heard this, he immediately trembled with his hands and feet to summon someone to collect the body, and he didn't dare to stay longer, and he didn't need to ask to know that the king and General Shen still had something to discuss.

Shen Mo saw Nan Yuechen walking to the window and looking at the clouds in the sky, and couldn't help but ask: "King, this concubine committed suicide, and the main messenger behind the scenes can't find out, what should we do next?" ”

The person with his back to him pulled up the arc of the evil charm at the corner of his mouth, his dark eyes flashed with essence, and he said slowly: "Didn't she already spit out the truth and say that she was Xiliang's spy?" ”

Shen Mo was puzzled: "But isn't that the appearance?" It's her identity that she deliberately revealed. ”

Nan Yuechen turned around and smiled: "It's not important whether it's true or not, it's the reason." No matter who the person behind the scenes is, he wants to point the spearhead at Xiliang, which is in line with Lone's intentions, and tomorrow he will tell the world that Xiliang will send spies into my Nanshao Palace to assassinate him, and he will wave his army to the west. ”

When two countries confront each other, fighting for no reason is called aggression, and being famous is called crusade, and there is a big difference between the two. The death of Concubine Qin was to break the gate of the Quartet, and the first stop was Xiliang. This plan has been stored in Nan Yuechen's heart for two years, and he can finally wave the infinite emptiness in his heart and embark on the road to the expedition.

Shen Mo was able to penetrate it at a glance, and he was completely involved in the prince's subordinates two years ago. The shadow gate originally belonged to a hidden force outside the imperial court, and he understood the truth that good birds choose trees to perch on, and in the situation at that time, if he didn't choose the right person, I am afraid that he would have been calculated. Sure enough, he didn't follow the wrong person, Nanyue Chen did have the strategy and talent of a king, and he also reused him, so that he could not only live in the dark but be a killer, he could go in front of people.

The family and the country are not so important to him, a person who has been trained to be a killer since he was a child, but he is willing to assist South Vietnam in the great cause of becoming a great cause and taking over the world. After thinking about it, he still asked the question in his heart: "Did the king guess who is behind the scenes that Concubine Qin swore to hide?" ”

Nan Yuechen squinted his eyes and snorted lightly: "Lone will not guess in vain, but in order to see that this Qin Concubine and the fake Yuji should come from the same place, maybe there is no need to guess at all, the people who can stand side by side with Lone in the world's strategy are there!" ”

As he looked, the place he could see was the east, was it Dongyun?

Dongyun Zichen Palace, facing the two columns of ministers standing respectfully, the highest dragon chair was empty, but a table was placed next to the dragon chair, and sitting in it was the regent Qin Haorui. In the past two years, the emperor has often been absent, and all the affairs of the court and China are represented by the regent, and the ministers have become accustomed to it.

Today's report is the military situation, there are spies to report, Nanshao is in the army, it is said that the king of Nanshao sent spies into the palace to assassinate the reason that Xiliang wants to drive the expedition in person. This can be big or small, although the four countries have chaos from time to time, and the border is often out of the rogue bandits, but the real war has never broken out, every time it is a threat of pressure and intimidation, and occasionally small battles are also in the name of the clear stream of the koku, the scale is not large.

After the next court, King Rui went straight to the Fengran Palace. Now that the sixth brother's Ziyang Palace has become an ornament, he moved the dormitory into the Fengran Palace, and the reason is self-evident, the sixth brother has never come out.

I persuaded her more than once, Yiren has gone, why not let her go at ease. But the sixth brother replied to him that he could only sleep in the Fengran Palace, and he couldn't sleep anywhere. As soon as you enter the palace gate, what enters your nose is the scent of smoke, which is exactly the same as the original taste. After this incense is less musk, it can calm the mind and fall asleep when it smells.

In the palace, Xiao Hezi was waiting alone, and King Rui frowned and asked, "Where is the emperor?" ”

"Back to the prince, the emperor has just had a meal, took a nap on the couch, and before going to bed, he told the slave that if there is an emergency, he can wake him up, do you need the slave to wake up the emperor?"

"No need, this king can go in on his own."

Entering the inner room, the furnishings here are exactly the same as before, and the furniture that was destroyed during the bloodbath has been made by someone to make the same arrangement. Even the comb and mirror on the dresser have not changed, and it seems that the Yiren are still there.

Qin Tiance leaned heavily on the couch in front of the window, breathing evenly, as if he was really asleep.

King Rui hid his footsteps and came to him, not making a sound, just staring at his imperial brother. I don't know why, now the sixth brother doesn't even wear a dragon robe, and he is dressed in white single clothes every day, with a cold feeling all over his body. At this time, his brows were furrowed, even if he fell asleep, was he unhappy in his dreams?

Concubine Qing not only took away the sixth brother's heart, but also took away his soul. Even the world he loves the most, he can throw it to himself, ignore it, and only immerse himself in this place full of her memories every day. But this is not a good memory, it is a torture for the sixth brother. The heart hurts, and I feel distressed for the most beloved royal brother, how long will it take to torture myself endlessly?

"Ari, what's the matter with me?" A cold voice came, soft and emotionless.

"Did the younger brother disturb the sixth brother's sleep?"

Qin Tiance had already sat up and shook his head lightly, "I didn't fall asleep, I just wanted to lie down." Ari, did you say that she really didn't forgive me, so in the past two years, she has never dreamed of entering me. ”

"Sixth brother!" King Rui cried out in pain.

But he saw Qin Tiance waving his hand and said, "That's it, since you are here, there must be something that can't be solved in the court, so you will come to me." Is something going on? "The topic shifted, obviously I didn't want to talk about it.

King Rui had no choice but to straighten his mind and carefully explain the major events of the court: "The spies came to report that Nanyue Chen's personal expedition raised troops to press into the Xiliang border, and the war was about to break out. This time it doesn't seem like a strong momentum, Sixth Brother, what should we do? ”

Qin Tiance sneered: "He finally couldn't help it?" What excuse did he use to send troops? What happened inside Nanshao Palace? ”

King Rui was surprised, the sixth brother was obviously not in the court, but he guessed the reason. "A concubine died in the Nanshao Palace, and Nan Yuechen used the death of that concubine to accuse him of being a spy of Na Xiliang and wanted to assassinate him, which is the reason why he sent troops."

"Spies? Oh, Nan Yuechen has long been ambitious, if he wants to go to war, his first stop will be Xiliang, whether the concubine is a spy or not, he is just creating momentum. Dongyun did not move, strengthened his vigilance, passed on the order, and began to recruit good soldiers from today and prepare for battle. Only with adequate preparation can we be fearless. No matter how strong the national strength is, he will always be tired after a long period of war, and he doesn't have much energy to conquer our Dongyun. ”

King Rui was puzzled: "Why don't we take this opportunity to raise troops to attack the south?" In any case, it was he Nanshao who waved his troops first, and we can take this opportunity to raise the banner of justice to crusade. ”

Qin Tiance shook his head with a smile: "Ah Rui, Nan Shao has been stormy in the past two years, and he has already risen to become the strongest in the four countries. But no one knows its true national strength, and we can take this opportunity to find out. In addition, you and I both know that I have been slacking off in Dongyun in the past two years, and if I suddenly fight, what do you think will be the chance of winning? ”
