Chapter 283: Quid pro quo (I)

Wan Yanzhen pulled out the saber at his waist, picked up Yun Qing's chin, and was about to ask her how she wanted to die, but suddenly felt that the more she looked at this woman, the more familiar she became.

No! He's definitely seen it somewhere!!

The more Wan Yanzhen looked at it, the more he felt that this woman's complexion was wrong, so he stretched out his hand and wiped it vigorously on Yun Qing's face, and sure enough, he wiped a lot of ash.

"What are you waiting for!!!" the enraged Khan couldn't help but urge.

Wan Yanzhen realized that something was wrong, and said to his subordinates: "Go! bring a basin of water and wipe this slut's face clean for me!!"

After the ash on Yun Qing's face was wiped off, his original white and beautiful face was revealed, and many people around him were stunned, this ugly monster actually looked so beautiful?

Wan Yanzhen and Khan glanced at each other, and were shocked and angry for a while: "Concubine Yun!!"

"What?Concubine Yun? This cheap maid is actually a concubine?!! everyone looked at each other for a while, as if they were a little incredulous about this sudden change.

"Haha!!" Khan let out a sarcastic laugh: "This dog emperor can!! Even his own woman is used!

Yun Qing sneered: "Your Majesty didn't send me here, this palace was inadvertently captured by your own soldiers among the people, it's no wonder that this palace is a little funny!"

Sure enough, as soon as Yun Qing's words came out, Khan and Wanyanzhen's expressions were like swallowing a fly.

"Who captured her?!!!"

Wan Yanzhen calmed down a little: "Father Khan, now is not the time to worry about this, let's deal with this woman first!"

"Yes, yes!!, let's kill her first" After saying that, he drew his knife and prepared to cut Yunqing, but was stopped by Wan Yanzhen.

"Father Khan ......"

"What do you do?!!!"

"Father Khan, don't be impulsive, are you really ready to withdraw like this?"

"What else can I do?!Waiting for the soldiers to starve to death here?!!"

Wan Yan Zhen said: "My son heard that there was a lost Concubine Yun in the palace, and the emperor has been looking for her for more than a year, which is enough to see how important this woman is to the Dog Emperor, this woman may not have been sent by the Dog Emperor, maybe the emperor is also looking for her whereabouts!"

"You, what do you mean?"

Wan Yanzhen showed a sneer and said: "Anyway, things have come to this point, why don't we use this woman as a bargaining chip and fight for it? Let's see if that dog emperor will be mistaken by beauty? By the way, exchange my sister back!"

"How is that possible?" said the Khan, without even thinking about it, "Are you as lustful as the emperor and you?!!?

"That's not necessarily! How many Ming Jun were planted in the hands of women, isn't Father Khan ready to gamble?"

The Khan hesitated, and asked him to just collect his troops and go back, and he was really unwilling! If this was the case, the emperor would never let them go!

It's better to gamble......

"Okay! Let's take that woman as a bargaining chip!"

As soon as the Khan's words fell, his subordinates hurriedly came to report: "Oh no, Khan, Your Highness, the emperor has chased after him with Han soldiers!!"

"Withdraw first, bring this slut with you, when it comes to last resort, this is our bargaining chip!!"

Yun Qing was tied to the horse by the Khitans, and ran behind the horse. Occasionally, he was dragged by horses, and his wrists were worn out by the heavy hemp rope, and his flesh and blood were blurred.

It was rare for her to suffer this kind of sin, and after running for a long time, she really didn't know how she survived this morning.

Rong Cheng and his soldiers quickly caught up, and the two sides fought without hesitation, but the morale of the Khitans was not as good as before at this time, and some were in a downward trend.

Yun Qing was dragged to the back, tied all over, and gagged. Yun Qing could only watch them fight in the grass not far away.

Despite the large number of soldiers and horses, she still saw Rong Cheng very easily.

He was dressed in silver-white battle armor, and he looked much more handsome than other soldiers on this occasion, but there was no ambiguity in killing people, and it could even be said that he was the most ferocious, Yun Qing only felt that thousands of troops and horses seemed to have become his foil.

Of course, the Khitan people also understand the truth of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, I don't know how many people want to take Rong Cheng's head, and he will inevitably be stabbed by the sword, Yun Qing is frightened when he looks at it, and he can't take care of the injuries on his wrists, for fear that if he doesn't pay attention, he will become the ghost of someone else's knife.

This battle lasted until the night, Yun Qing has been paying attention to Rong Cheng's situation with concern, it is impossible for Rong Cheng not to be injured, he has been stabbed by a sword many times, and he has been hit by a few arrows, but fortunately, he was not injured in an important position, and his head was not successfully taken off by the opposite side.

Yun Qing knew that Rong Cheng was good, and it was the first time he had seen it.

The Khitans were beaten back and forth. fled for dozens of miles before he landed. Yun Qing was relieved to see that Rong Cheng was fine, and at this time, he noticed the injury on his wrist, which hurt very much.

Wan Yanzhen looked at the sad Khan and said, "Father Khan, don't hesitate, try it with this woman......"

Rong Cheng's team stopped not far away, discussing the next matter with a few soldiers, and suddenly a guard reported that it was a letter from the Khitans.

Rong Cheng opened it and looked at it, his eyes slightly gloomy.

The soldier on the side cautiously spoke: "Your Majesty, what does the letter say?"

"Are the Khitans going to surrender?"

Rong Cheng accepted the letter and said: "The Khitan people said that they caught the person who set fire to the grain and grass, and said that they wanted to give it to me as a gift, provided that I personally went to the front of the battle to discuss the conditions. ”

After hearing this, those soldiers snorted disdainfully: "Talking about conditions?

"Yes, what if they really catch the person who set the fire? No matter how great the merit of that person is, it is not worth the lives of many of our soldiers who have died!!"

In fact, if Yunqing does not burn grain and grass, there will only be more casualties, and these soldiers have the meaning of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. After all, no matter how great the credit of this person is, it will not be enough for His Majesty to exchange

The soldiers tried their best to dissuade them, but Rong Cheng interrupted them and said: "I really want to see who set fire to the grain and grass of the Khitans! The Khitan Khan is not a fool, and if he dares to negotiate conditions with me at this time, he must feel that he has enough chips in his hands." ”

"Your Majesty......"

Rong Cheng ignored the opposition of the soldiers, and for some reason, he had a strong idea in his heart and was ready to find out.

Rong Cheng led his soldiers to hurry overnight, came to the front of the battle, confronted the Khitan army, and said to the Khan: "Khitan Khan!

The Khitan Khan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, why don't you listen to our conditions first?!"

"Presumptuous!!" The soldier beside Rong Cheng said angrily: "Khitan Khan, where did you come from to negotiate terms with Your Majesty?"

"Huh!" Rong Cheng raised his hand, interrupted the soldiers, and said with a smile: "The Khan might as well talk about what the conditions are." ”

"First, put Xi'er back!"

"That's easy to say. "Since the Khitan people put forward this condition, it shows that they still care about Wan Yan Xi, Wan Yan Xi is a dispensable person for Rong Cheng, if he can really exchange it for the person who burned the Khitan grain and grass, it is worth it! Rong Cheng is not a person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge.

"What about the second condition?"

Khan said: "The second condition is to exchange your majesty for you!!"

"Poof......

As soon as Khan's words came out, there was a burst of merciless ridicule.

"Fart!!Khitan Khan, are you daydreaming?!"

"Is it that the grain and grass have been burned, and the Khan's brain is not easy to use?"

Soldiers on both sides lit torches, illuminating the dark night. Rong Cheng didn't seem to want to continue talking nonsense, and said coldly: "Khitan Khan, surrender, lest I kill you all!"

Khan's face was pale, he couldn't imagine that he would be defeated like this, he was really unwilling!!

"Your Majesty really doesn't want to see who the person who burns grain and grass is?"

Rong Cheng didn't say anything, he didn't believe it, this Khitan was really bad in his brain, he dared to put forward this kind of condition, he still had some capital in his hands, and he wouldn't make up his mind easily before seeing the final result.

Rong Cheng said: "Khan, don't sell it, if you want me to agree to your conditions, you must hand over that person to me, right?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this person will definitely satisfy you, bring it up!!"

At the Khan's order, Yun Qing was escorted forward, and a bright knife was placed on her neck.

The moment he saw her, Rong Cheng's eyes widened instantly, and then, there was a monstrous anger on his face.

Satisfied with Rong Cheng's reaction, Khan was a little relieved and said with a smile: "Your Majesty recognizes this woman, right?"

Rong Cheng's face regained his calmness, his eyebrows were furrowed, and the soldiers on the side said angrily: "Khan, the two sides are at war, what kind of ability do you have to catch a woman?

"Heh, this is no ordinary woman! This slut burned our grain and grass! Killed our soldiers!" said the Khan, his teeth itching angrily: "If it weren't for the friendship with His Majesty in the past, how could Ben Khan have left her this cheap life until now?!"

Rong Cheng never thought that the grain and grass were actually burned by her......

It's just that she didn't escape, how did she get into the Khitans, and burned the Khitans' grain and grass.

Now is not the time to care about this, Rong Cheng said: "Let her go!Otherwise, I will definitely kill you all!!"

"Haha, will Your Majesty let us go if we let her go? Your Majesty will not be able to do anything when we are stupid?!

Rong Cheng was silent, and the soldiers on the side saw that the situation was not good, and they dissuaded him one after another.

"Your Majesty, you must not!"

"Your Majesty thinks twice......"

Rong Cheng's face was pale, and when the Khan saw that Rong Cheng hesitated, he smiled and said: "Ben Khan will not force Your Majesty, give you three days to think about it, if it is then, you haven't thought about it clearly, this slut's life, Ben Khan will not continue to keep!!"

As he spoke, Khan glanced at his subordinate, who pushed the knife a few points deeper into Yunqing's neck, and several lines of blood slid down his neck.

"Khitan Khan!!!You let her go for me!!" A violent cry came, Rong Cheng really couldn't sit still, for fear that the person holding Yunqing hostage would be unstable in one hand, and the knife would really die if it went a few points deeper.

If Yunqing has a case, then he, then he......

Rong Cheng didn't dare to think about it, and his whole body was filled with a huge panic.

"Let her go, so long as Your Majesty agrees to my terms, I'll let this woman go, if not......"

Khan looked at Rong Cheng's pale face with satisfaction, it seemed that this woman was really extraordinary to the emperor. If it were a different person, with the temperament of this emperor, it would never be like this.

There was a cold sweat on Rong Cheng'......s forehead: "Stop!!!"

"Your Majesty!!I can't agree!!" The subordinates dissuaded one after another, if Your Majesty went, it would be over.

Khan was not in a hurry, looking at the reaction of Rong Cheng, who had always been rational and indifferent, he knew how important this woman was to him: "Your Majesty doesn't need to reply in a hurry, give you time to think about it, this woman is safe with us." ”

Seeing this, Yun Qing cursed a dirty word in his heart, and simply stretched his neck forward, as if he was about to commit suicide.

Fortunately, the soldier was quick and withdrew his sword almost instantly. Yun Qing didn't stand firm, and fell straight forward.

"Yunqing !!" Rong Cheng snorted violently, and his heart almost rose to his throat.

Yun Qing looked at him now, and still said with a little emptiness: "Your Majesty, this Khitan people are extremely insidious, even if you come, they will not be able to let me go!!! You, you leave me alone!"

"Shut up! I'm going back to clean you up!!"

"Your Majesty and Concubine Yun Niangniang have any old things to talk about, let's wait until later! The Khan was obviously a little impatient, so he directly ordered someone to take Yun Qing down.

Rong Cheng asked the soldiers to stay for the time being, and he went back to the palace to pick up Yan Xi in person.

It's just that I didn't expect that this matter spread in the palace, and after a little thought, Rong Cheng understood that there was someone from the Queen Mother in the barracks, and the Queen Mother found Rong Cheng and personally admonished her.

"Emperor, that's just a woman, don't be confused!!She is important, can she be more important than this country? You have no children under your knees now, if there is a case, is it difficult to give the country to Prince Rong?!!

The queen mother said that the head is the way, Rong Cheng did not answer with a gloomy face, he was speechless, he knew the truth better than anyone else, but ......

Naturally, he would not give up the throne to Prince Rong, but Yunqing, it was impossible for him to ignore it. Now that he has identified her, it is impossible to ignore her in this life!

Rong Cheng paused, sighed and said: "Don't interfere in this matter, the son knows in his own heart, the throne will not be passed to Prince Rong, and your position as the queen mother will not be shaken!"

"You, are you going to be angry with the mourning family?!!" The Queen Mother was trembling with anger.

"Erchen will give you a satisfactory answer!"
