Just now he saw the Yong'an princess Xiao Lingjiang, whose appearance can be described as rare in the world, it is difficult to guarantee that the king will not have a heart of pity when he sees her, and will be bewitched by her, the princess of Da Zhou.

What's more, judging from the banquet, Xiao Lingjiang is indeed a martial artist, and he is even more silent between words and temptations.

In this way, what Gongi said earlier was not exaggerated.

It's just a beauty, such a scheming ability, it's not good to put it next to the king!

Gongji didn't get angry when he heard this, but shook his head helplessly: "What the general said, why don't I know?" To tell the truth, I didn't have the idea of Xiao Lingjiang when I went to Da Zhou. ”

"I had only heard about her deeds before, but as soon as I saw her, I found that this woman was indeed extraordinary. With such ability and means, how can the Great Zhou royal family be willing to send her to peace? ”

"Who would have thought, the Great Zhou Emperor would be willing." Speaking of this, Gongji's eyes couldn't help but show a little ridicule.

"The people of the Divine Palace pinched his mind and suggested that I, Xifan, ask to marry Xiao Lingjiang, the princess of Yong'an, and take the opportunity to get rid of it."

"The Divine Palace is willing to take the initiative to contribute, and Xifan can get rid of the big trouble in my heart, so I naturally can't ask for it. So, he did what he planned. ”

It's just that...... However, he never expected that the Great Zhou Emperor would be seriously ill and lose power, the crown prince would be in power, and the He family would be in power.

He originally thought that Da Zhou would inevitably change his choice with his relatives, who would have thought that Xiao Lingjiang would actually act according to the agreement, and the prince of Da Zhou also ordered Pei You to lead a thousand elite soldiers to protect him.

Now, it's tricky.

The covenant has been made, but it is not easy to repent. He could only bite the bullet and welcome people back, hoping that the people of the Divine Palace could successfully intercept and kill Xiao Lingjiang in the territory of the Great Zhou.

But what disappointed him was that the Divine Palace had failed several times, and Xiao Lingjiang was still alive now, and he had successfully arrived in Xifan.

If she dies in the Great Zhou, Xifan can put the responsibility on the Divine Palace and the Great Zhou's protection, but if she has an accident in Xifan, Xifan will have more or less a relationship.

It's just that now that he is in this situation, he can't care much about it. Almost as soon as he arrived in the territory of Xifan, it was difficult for Pei You to monitor his every move everywhere, so he immediately sent a message to the Divine Palace, planning to join forces with him again.

He looked at the flickering candlelight, and the murderous intent loomed in his eyes: "General, don't worry, whether this Xiao Lingjiang can go to the royal capital alive is still a matter of words." Even if she is hard-lived, there may not be a place for her in the royal capital. The king is not a foolish man who is obsessed with beauty or foolishness. ”

"At that time, Pei You, who escorted her, led the elite soldiers away, and she was far away from her homeland and trapped in the royal capital, which is a great ability, and it is expected that she will be unable to make any waves."

Hearing his words, Bu Chi couldn't help but feel a little relieved, it seemed that Daxiang had a plan in his heart. I went to the royal capital for 2,000 miles, and there were many accidents along the way, so I can't say it, so Princess Yong'an is unconvincing, so she goes.

The two took advantage of the darkness of the night to discuss for a while, and then went their separate ways.

The New Year has passed, but the winter has not yet receded. The terrain in Xibo was higher, and it snowed again on the second day, and the ice and snow had not melted.

Gongji consulted with the accompanying envoys: "Now the road to the direction of the royal capital is covered with snow, and it is difficult for the carriages and horses to drive. Looking at this situation, we need to stay in Akagi for a few more days. ”

For this travel arrangement, if Xiao Lingjiang has no special requirements, the envoy will not add more beaks.

What's more, if it weren't for the urging of the Japanese Gongji some time ago, they would have planned to wait until the weather warms up after the beginning of spring before setting off.

Isn't there a snow and ice closure right now?

"Since safety is important, everything will be arranged according to the big plan."

When Xiao Lingjiang heard about the arrangement, he only raised his lips and smiled: "Now that he has arrived at the realm of Xifan, he is not in a hurry." ”

She sneered in her heart, and then admonished: "After all, the people of the Great Zhou are in a different place now, and everything must be carefully guarded against. Diet and daily life, carriages, horses, grain and grass, everywhere must be careful. ”

Now that they are staying here, they do not know that Gongji and Buchike will secretly make some stumbling blocks.

Chicheng is not far from Liangzhou and Shazhou, but Xiao Lingjiang has not yet received the news of the destruction of the Divine Palace, and Gongji should not have received the news yet.

In the Divine Palace, there are still Yongmu, that is, Mei Cen Niang and others who are wandering around.

Gongji couldn't contact the shrine, so he naturally wanted to contact her.

The team of relatives stopped at Akagi to rest, no matter what Bu Chi thought in his heart, he was very enthusiastic about everyone on the surface.

And after a few days, it was time for the traditional butter lantern festival in Xifan.

According to custom, the people of Western Tibet would go to various temples to pray to the Buddha during the day, and hold a butter lantern festival at night on the octagonal street of Chicheng. At that time, all kinds of flower stands will be set up all over the street, and various images such as gods and Buddhas, people, birds and beasts, flowers and plants will be lively.

Although Chicheng is a remote border city, but now that the Tantric descendant and the current national teacher Master Tuozhi are here, and there is a team of Da Zhou and his relatives, this festival has become unprecedentedly grand.

Gongji and Tuozhi warmly invited, and Xiao Lingjiang naturally refused again, so he had to go out with them to watch the grand scenery and share the excitement.

Sitting on the high platform, you can see that the streets are surrounded by butter lanterns, in this small Gobi city, the lit lanterns are like stars falling, twinkling, a piece of brilliance.

The people of Xibo wandered in the flow of people in Denghai, laughing, singing and dancing, and lingering.

And when he arrived, he was dressed in Dharma robes and slowly ascended to the Buddhist pavilion. The people who had been happy immediately fell silent and looked up together.

I saw that he lowered his eyes slightly, the law was strict, and he reached the highest place of the Buddha Pavilion step by step.

Immediately afterwards, he clasped his hands together in front of his chest and recited the mantra in Sanskrit.

His voice was soft, obviously far away, but the Sanskrit sound seemed to echo in his ears. Anyone who hears it feels like a warm current flowing through their hearts, which makes people calm down suddenly, and then there is a faint sense of peace and joy.

This is the greeting of Gen-la Tuoji.

His Excellency the Buddha's people also folded their hands and prayed silently in their hearts.

When a spell was over, Tuo held the seal on his hand, and as his right hand was slightly raised, a streamer flashed, and the butter lantern at the top of the pavilion, which was a foot high, was instantly ignited. Then, from top to bottom, the lanterns on each floor of the Buddha Pavilion were also lit up in turn.

However, in the blink of an eye, the entire Buddhist pavilion was illuminated by countless lanterns, like a heavenly temple.

Under the high platform, the people exclaimed, and then raised their hands and cheered.

When Xiao Lingjiang saw such a scene, he couldn't help but laugh.

No matter what the relationship between the two countries is and where the future will go, at this moment, all the swords and intrigues are temporarily hidden, the joy and smiles of the people of Xibo are real, and her peace and light joy at this time are also real.
