Chapter 100: A Conspiracy Emerges
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head, put these things behind him, then sat up and began to run the "Holy Formula" exercises.
The Red Flame Forest was never a place to stay for long, so he had to recover from his injuries quickly and leave here.
The star power began to flow slowly, and as the nine Star Swirls rotated in unison, a layer of misty white light appeared on Ren Yaoyao's body. It had been running for nine weeks before he let out a breath of turbidity and opened his eyes again. After these nine weeks of luck and healing, the meridians have been unimpeded, which is enough to support the free flow of star power.
Ren Xiaoyao stood up and was about to walk out of the rock crevice.
At this moment, the fiery red figure returned, and Fire Dance held her helmet in her hand, and in the helmet was some freshly picked wild fruits. Without the restraints of the helmet, Huo Wu's long fiery hair spread out like a waterfall and hung down to the bottom of her buttocks, and the breeze blew through it, and her long hair fluttered like a burning flame.
Huo Wu's posture was so beautiful, but when Ren Xiaoyao saw her face, he couldn't help laughing: Huo Wu's face was smeared with black and gray, and the whole face became a big flower.
"Girl, what's wrong with you, was your face kissed by a wild boar?"
"Huh?" Huo Wu didn't know why, she immediately took out the magic mirror she was carrying, and when she saw her face in the mirror, she couldn't help but scream: "Oops!"
Then, Huo Wu threw down the helmet in his arms and ran out to find a place to wash his face.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head, and then walked out of the rock crevice. Then he saw a mass of freshly burned ashes on the ground not far ahead, and on top of the ashes was a wooden stick with a roast rabbit on itβbut it was already roasted.
Seeing this, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but understand: it turned out that Huo Wu turned black because he was roasting rabbits!
It's hard for her, a dignified princess of a country, she must have never done any work, but now she has to do this. It's just that her barbecue skills obviously can't be complimented, and a good rabbit has been roasted into black charcoal by her, and it is estimated that if it is placed in front of the dog, the dog will not eat it......
After a while, Fire Dance washed her face and ran back. Seeing that Ren Xiaoyao had come out and was looking at the roasted rabbit and laughing, she couldn't help but look disgusted: "Hmph, I see that your body has just recovered, so I gave you a roast rabbit to make up for it, and you still laugh at me!"
"Uh...... Well, it's me who doesn't laugh anymore. Ren Xiaoyao said that he didn't smile, but he still couldn't help but smile.
Huo Wu pouted angrily and went straight into the rock crevice, but after a while, he took out the helmet full of fruit: "Na, the rabbit has nothing to eat, you can eat some fruit." I have carefully distinguished these fruits, and they are not poisonous. β
"Hmm. β
Ren Xiaoyao took a wild fruit and found that the fruit had been cleaned, and couldn't help but secretly suspect in his heart: This little devil is actually quite careful, but she is so considerate today, it seems a bit abnormal......
Seeing that Ren Xiaoyao was staring at her, Huo Wu's eyes dodged for a moment, and a touch of blush appeared on her face, and then she said angrily: "What do you see, haven't you seen such a beautiful person as Princess Ben?"
"I haven't seen it. Ren Xiaoyao replied truthfully.
His words caused Huo Wu to blush again. can make this famous "little devil" blush repeatedly, presumably Ren Xiaoyao is also the first person in history.
"Okay, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's leave here after eating the fruit. You saved me once last night, and I healed your wounds, and now you still want to take me captive?" said Fire Dance.
Ren Xiaoyao suddenly realized, no wonder the fire poison in his body was discharged, it turned out that Huo Wu had healed himself. As for how she healed her wounds, Ren Xiaoyao didn't know and didn't think much about it.
He thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, for the sake of you healing me, I won't arrest you." Besides, my injuries are not healed now, and I may not be able to catch you. β
"Oh, you told me that your injuries are not healed, and you are not afraid that I will take the opportunity to do something to you?"
"Hehe, if you want to do it, I won't be able to see the sun today. Besides, even if my injuries are not healed, it is still okay to protect myself in your hands. β
"Hmph, megalomaniac. Huo Wu snorted, and then his expression became serious, "Ren Xiaoyao, speaking of which, I really don't understand, why do you want to work for Han Linfu? Could it be that your Ren family, who is also the minions of the Han family, want to rebel with them?"
Hearing this, Ren Xiaoyao's heart shook wildly. The holy decree ordered the Ren family to go to Xiliang, and Ren Xiaoyao always thought that this was a conspiracy and was controlled by the Han family behind the scenes. But he never knew what this conspiracy was and what the purpose of the Han family was.
But these things that he wondered, Fire Dance seemed to be clear!
He hurriedly asked, "What did you say, the Han family is going to rebel?"
"You don't know?" Huo Wu looked suspicious, and quickly understood. She paced back and forth in place, thought for a while, and then said, "I understand, your Ren family is just being used by the Han family. Tell me first, how did you send troops to Xiliang?"
"Our Ren family sent troops to Xiliang to follow the holy decree of the Snow Star Emperor. The holy decree said, there are soldiers and horses in your Xiliang Kingdom, and you intend to invade Great Xia, so you order us to attack the territory of Xiliang Kingdom first. Ren Xiaoyao replied truthfully.
"Soldiers and horses are changing?" Huo Wu snorted angrily, his face full of gloom, "It must be Han Linfu's old fox who is spreading rumors in front of the Snow Star Emperor! We Xiliang people have always loved peace and longed for freedom, how could we take the initiative to invade other countries? The Snow Star Emperor is really believing that old fox's slander!"
Ren Xiaoyao nodded, believing Huo Wu's words.
Long before the start of this war, the Ren family's eyeliner had already returned: there was no change in Xiliang Kingdom. On the contrary, there are a lot of rumors that there are soldiers and horses in Xiliang, but now that I think about it, it is all rumors deliberately spread by the Han family.
"Tell me in detail, what is the conspiracy of the Han family, how to rebel? What does their rebellion have to do with the attack on Xiliang? Also, do you have any real evidence?"
Huo Wu began to explain in detail: "A few months ago, our spies from the Western Liang Kingdom intercepted a secret report, which was sent by Han Linfu, the prime minister of your Great Xia Imperial Court, and the recipient of the secret report was Yun Ze, the crown prince of the Great Mongolian Kingdom. In that secret report, Han Linfu gave Yun Ze a detailed introduction to the domestic power situation of the Great Xia Imperial Court, and vaguely mentioned things like 'sending troops'. Do you think that he, as the prime minister of the Great Xia Imperial Court, had a secret correspondence with the crown prince of the Great Mongolian Kingdom, and the content of the letter was these, isn't it doubtful?"
Ren Xiaoyao fell into deep thought.
"Great Mongolian ...... It seems that the claws of the Han family have really stretched far enough! The three major forces of Wu Jixing, Great Xia, Dameng and Xiliang, have all been calculated by the Han family. β
Ren Xiaoyao still doesn't know much about the specific steps of the Han family's plot to rebel, but he can already guess a thing or two: Damengguo must be an accomplice that Han Linfu is trying to fight for, and Xiliang is a force he taboos, so he wants to get rid of it in advance!
Historically, the three kingdoms of Great Xia, Great Meng, and Xiliang have always been three-legged in Wuji Star. However, the Great Xia Imperial Court was always the most powerful, and Da Meng and Xiliang were slightly inferior.
The relationship between the three kingdoms, Daxia and Xiliang has always been friendly and friendly, and the people of Dameng are fierce, and they have invaded Daxia and Xiliang many times in history. Due to the invasion of Dameng, the Great Xia Imperial Court has repeatedly proposed to join forces with the Western Liang Kingdom to destroy Dameng. But Xiliang was free and uninhibited by nature, and he never wanted to form an alliance with Great Xia, and it was always difficult to destroy Great Meng with the power of Great Xia alone.
Therefore, in Wuji Xing, the three-legged momentum has been maintained, and it can be regarded as stable.
Now, Han Linfu first provoked the dispute between Great Xia and Xiliang, and when the two countries were exhausted, he would unite with Dameng to send troops...... At that time, I am afraid that Daxia and Xiliang will be in danger of subversion!
......
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyao already had some calculations in his heart.
First of all, the war between Great Xia and Xiliang really shouldn't continue.
The Ren family is a force loyal to Great Xia, and the Xiliang Kingdom is also a friend and not an enemy, and the war between them is just internal friction, which is in the hands of the Han family.
Secondly, find a way to expose the conspiracy of the Han family.
The Snow Star Emperor has been deceived by Han Linfu, and he must first know that Han Linfu is a traitor, and with the power of the Great Xia Imperial Court, he can deal with the huge Han family!
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyao immediately said: "Fire Dance Princess, I will now negotiate with you on behalf of the Ren family and the Black Armor Army, hoping that the two countries can temporarily cease fighting, and it is a secret truce!"
Huo Wu is also a smart person, what Ren Xiaoyao thought of, she also thought of, and nodded and said, "Well, on behalf of Xiliangguo, I agree." β
......
The two went on to talk a lot.
Regarding the armistice, since the Ren family has the imperial order, they cannot withdraw without authorization, otherwise they are likely to be bitten back by the Han family. Therefore, Ren Xiaoyao and Huo Wu agreed that the Ren family and the Black Armor Army would continue to be stationed in Tianchi City, and the two armies would pretend to face the enemy, forming a stalemate in order to delay the war.
On the other hand, Huo Wu mentioned that they had sent people to the Heavenly Capital many times to explain the situation to the Snow Star Emperor. But the people sent out were like stones sinking into the sea, and they were never heard from again. Obviously, they have all been wiped out by the Han family.
Therefore, the two decided to personally take risks and rush to Tiandu to expose Han Linfu's conspiracy to the Snow Star Emperor! I believe that with the identity of Xia Huowu, the princess of the Western Liang Kingdom, the words she said will have a certain weight, plus Ren Xiaoyao also has the identity of "Ren Fengshuang", which can also attract the attention of the Snow Star Emperor.
The two agreed on everything, and then separated for the time being, and each returned to each other's camp to prepare.
............
Ren Xiaoyao returned to Tianchi City and explained the situation in detail to his father and others. Ren Canglong and the elders also had the same views as Ren Xiaoyao, believing that the Han family was plotting to rebel.
However, regarding the fact that Ren Xiaoyao wanted to go to Tiandu in person to meet the Snow Star Emperor, Ren Canglong and the elders were not very relieved.
After all, Ren Xiaoyao is the hope of the Ren family in the future, and the risk of going to Tiandu is really big!
However, Ren Xiaoyao tried all kinds of ways to persuade them. He will disguise himself and rush to Tiandu by water, plus he will be accompanied by Fire Dance and the masters around Fire Dance all the way, I believe that he can minimize the danger.
Because Ren Xiaoyao insisted on insisting, Ren Canglong and the elders had to agree.
And the battle at the border pass, as agreed between Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Huowu, fell into a subtle "stalemate". The two armies faced off against each other, but there was no real large-scale clashes, and the casualties of the two armies did not increase.
"Tiandu, Han family...... Finally, it's time to deal with the Han family head-on......"
Ren Xiaoyao clenched his fists tightly, thinking of the hatred he had for the Han family in his previous life, and he was full of motivation.
