In the Qiangcheng County Shoufu, this has always been Xiao Jingqi's residence, and Xiao Jinghong also lives here.

There is warm sunshine today, and Xiao Jinghong is pushing a wheelchair to the courtyard to blow the wind and bask in the sun.

That night, Xiao Jingqi wanted to rape Qiu Ruoruo, but was abolished by Lei Jun.

Xiao Jingqi's meridians were all broken, and he could only sit in a wheelchair, and he needed to be served even by eating and drinking.

Xiao Jinghong saw Xiao Jingqi raise his hand tentatively, and comforted: "In another month, when the meridians are better, you will be able to walk on the ground." ”

Xiao Jingqi looked hideous, and said angrily: "Qiu Ruoruo, that slut, dares to abolish the palace, and the palace wants their entire Qiu family to die in Kyoto!" ”

Xiao Jinghong drank tea and was silent, but he was thinking in his heart: If it weren't for Qiu Ruoruo to stop Lei Jun, you would have become a lonely ghost, and you would want to destroy the Qiu family.

"Why hasn't there been a reply to the letter sent to Kyoto?" Xiao Jingqi asked.

For months, he had people send messages to Kyoto telling them what was happening here.

He naively thought Kyoto would make a move.

To this day, however, there is no one from Kyoto, let alone a letter from Kyoto.

When Xiao Jinghong wanted to speak, Yu Zhi walked in.

"Xiao Jingqi, you are not a little worse than your two imperial brothers. When you are dying, you still think that someone will come to Kyoto to save you? ”

"I just tell you, none of your letters have been sent out of Qiangcheng."

Yu Zhi looked at the miserable Xiao Jingqi with a disdainful expression.

Anyone who wants to hurt Qiu Ruoruo deserves to die.

Xiao Jingqi glared at Yu Zhi angrily, like a lion, but this lion lost its fangs and claws, and there was no threat at all.

"Yu Zhi, a rebellious minister and thief, if my father knows, he will definitely kill you, and everyone in Qiang City will die with you!"

Yu Zhi smiled contemptuously and said, "Fifth Prince, it seems that you still don't understand..."

Yu Zhi turned his head to look at Xiao Jinghong on the side.

"The prince can see better than you, know current affairs better than you, let him tell you."

Xiao Jinghong smiled bitterly in his heart, when Yu Zhi appeared, Xiao Jinghong probably guessed some clues.

After today, Yu Zhi was afraid that he was going to make a move against Xiao Jingqi and even Da Chu.

Xiao Jingqi looked at Xiao Jinghong in shock, his eyes full of disbelief. "Jing Hong... You, are you a person who knows Yu? You are a child of the royal family, why do you want to take refuge in this rebellious minister and thief? ”

Xiao Jingqi couldn't have imagined that Xiao Jinghong, who set off from Kyoto with him, fell to Yu Zhi early.

Xiao Jinghong put down the teacup in his hand and sighed: "Jingqi, in vain, you claim to be Wen Taowuluo, but you can't even understand this." From the moment we left Kyoto, we were dispensable. ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Jingqi asked.

Xiao Jinghong understood everything, so he stayed in Qiangcheng for a year, looking at the mountains and rivers and customs of Ximozhou, just as a trip.

"Your Majesty sent you to Ximozhou to take charge of the Beidou Battalion, is it really a chance to give you a chance to win the heir? You're wrong, it's just pushing you into a dangerous situation. If you can capture the Beidou Battalion, it will be great. ”

"But you can't take the Beidou Battalion? Or is it trapped in Qiang City like now? ”

Xiao Jinghong laughed sadly, as if it was the wail of an abandoned beast.

"Your Majesty knows what the situation in Qiangcheng is, but what if you don't know? He will pretend to send a holy decree to rebuke Yu Zhi, and then let Yu Zhi kill you. After all, if you die, Your Majesty is just a dead prince. And you should know better than me how many princes there are in the palace. ”

"The last thing you should do is to attack Qiu Ruoruo. What kind of marriage, do you really think that if you marry Qiu Ruoruo, you can become the prince and the emperor? ”

Xiao Jingqi listened to Xiao Jinghong's explanation in a daze, his face pale.

The truth is brutal, like a merciless blade piercing through the chest.

Xiao Jingqi's breathing stagnated for a while, followed by a big gasp.

"No... No way, my father would never do this to me. ”

"Xiao Jinghong, you dare to betray this palace, this palace will kill you and destroy your Zhao Wangfu."

Xiao Jinghong looked at Xiao Jingqi pitifully and sighed helplessly.

Yu Zhi was right. You are far worse than the crown prince and the third prince. ”

Xiao Jingqi struggled to get up, trying to grab Xiao Jinghong's sleeve.

Xiao Jinghong dodged backwards, only to see Xiao Jingqi fall out of the wheelchair in a daze, and the whole person was lying on the cold ground, unable to move.

Yu Zhi turned around and walked away and said, "Let's go, let him calm down." ”

Xiao Jinghong didn't look at Xiao Jingqi, turned around and followed Yu Zhi's footsteps.

Yu Zhi took the initiative to speak: "I'm going to Kyoto." You go back with that part of the Beidou Battalion soldiers. ”

Xiao Jinghong smiled bitterly: "You will definitely not have anything good going to Kyoto." ”

"I don't want to hurt anyone, but someone has bad intentions for me, so I have to guard against it." Yu Zhi continued, "Those soldiers who returned to Xiao Jingqi, you brought them back to Kyoto, which can be regarded as an explanation to Xiao Yuande. ”

Xiao Jinghong thought for a while and asked, "What about Xiao Jingqi?" ”

Yu Zhi glanced at Xiao Jinghong, knowing Xiao Jinghong's situation in his heart.

After today, if Xiao Jingqi returns to Kyoto and talks nonsense, he Xiao Jinghong will be finished.

"Xiao Jingqi left it to you." Yu Zhi said.

Xiao Jinghong understood what Yu Zhi meant, and there was no need to say much between smart people.

"You're a smart man, isn't it good to be an idle man? Do you have to get involved in the court? Yu Zhi said.

Xiao Jinghong thought that there would be many dangers after entering the court, although he was walking on thin ice, he did not regret it.

"The ambitions are different. If it weren't for the troubled times, there would be no day for a sensitive son like me. ”

"And what are your ambitions?" Yu Zhi asked, "A supreme minister, or that throne?" ”

Xiao Jinghong seemed to smile and did not answer Yu Zhi's question.

I only heard Yu Zhi continue: "No matter what your ambitions are, don't mess with me in the future." ”

After speaking, Yu Zhi didn't wait for Xiao Jinghong to answer, and left the county guard's mansion.

At the same time, the mighty steppe wolf rode from Tianshui City and marched towards Ximozhou.

The Steppe Wolf Court declared war on the Western Desert Prefecture, and the first city was Hengsha City, the northernmost city in the Western Desert Prefecture.

Xiao Hongqing, the king of Qingcheng, has long been waiting in Hengsha City.

Since the pacification of Ximozhou, Xiao Hongqing has been so leisurely that his bones are lazy. I never thought that the Steppe Wolf Court would come to Ximozhou to join in the fun.

Xiao Hongqing naturally did not agree.

In the first battle, the two sides were evenly matched.

Xiao Hongqing suffered some small losses. After all, it was the first time to face the steppe wolf rider, and the speed and mobility of the opponent were by no means comparable to the defenders of Hengsha City.

Soon, the Beidou Battalion in Qiang City also came to Hengsha City, bringing a clever plan by the way.

Li Qingru, who was far away in Qiangcheng, glanced at the map, analyzed the situation between the two sides, and just said: "Just a wolf ride, the backhand can be destroyed." ”

As a result, Li Qingru was still in Qiangcheng, and the decisive victory was thousands of miles away.

In the three-day battle, the steppe wolf rode into quicksand and suffered heavy losses.

The Beidou battalion attacked the enemy camp at night, and the fire burned for a day.

On the sixth day of the war, the sect of 100,000 mountains came out of Qinggu and went straight to Beiliangfu to attack and kill the defenders of the Wolf Court, and the defenders of the Wolf Court lost more than 1,000 people in half a day.

For a time, the steppe wolf court was under attack and could only withdraw the army of Hengsha City.

When I went, it was violent.

When he returned, he died down.

However, in just six days, the steppe wolf court was like a frosted eggplant with no strength, and suffered the most painful battle in the past three years.

The war report reached Kyoto, and Xiao Yuande's gloom that had been backlogged for a year was swept away.

The invasion of the Steppe Wolves into the North was a pain in his heart.

And Tie Murong, the Great Khan of the Wolf Court in White Deer City, looked gloomy and reprimanded angrily: "Tell me, why did my majestic grassland army lose so quickly? In just six days, but in six days, even Hengsha City couldn't get through, so he tried to say something south? ”

The commander who led the army lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Great Khan, the last general did not expect the other party to be so despicable. At the end of the day, it will be revitalized and will be able to set foot in Ximozhou! ”

Temurong looked at Meng Geri again, since Meng Ge's death, Meng Geri sat in Beiliang City.

In half a day, more than 1,000 people were slaughtered in Beiliangcheng.

"Menggeri, why would the sect of the 100,000 Great Mountains attack Beiliang City?"

Meng Geri said in a deep voice: "Back to the Great Khan, his subordinates are still investigating..."

Tiemurong said coldly: "Still investigating? Do you wait until all the soldiers under your command are dead before you can find out? ”

The atmosphere in the tent was oppressive, colder than snow and ice.

At this time, Nomin walked into the tent and said, "No need to check. The sect of the 100,000 mountains had received Yu Zhi's great grace, and it was reasonable to help him. ”

Meng Geri stared at Nuo Min and said, "Since the county lord knew earlier, why didn't he tell me to wait earlier, otherwise he wouldn't have lost more than a thousand soldiers." ”

Instead, the blame is on me... Nomin also stared at Mongeri and said, "Even if I say it, will you listen?" ”

"I have long instructed you to restrain your subordinates and treat the people of Dachu well. But do you listen? ”

Nomin was right, but the current situation wouldn't make her reasonable.

Tie Murong said in a deep voice: "Nuo Min, since you expected that those sects would sneak attack Beiliang City, you should have said it earlier. ”

Nuo Min was aggrieved and angry, and said, "It's my fault. I advised you not to send troops to Ximozhou, and now it is my fault that I have failed miserably and lost more than 10,000 people? ”

Nomin knew that this would offend everyone present, because it was a joint decision of all of them to send troops to the Western Desert State.

Now Nomin's rebuke is undoubtedly blaming the entire Prairie Six Division.

Suddenly, Prince Gu Ri spoke up: "Nomin, you are a woman, don't talk about military affairs. This is not the place for you, get out. ”

Nuo Min was silent, looking at the pale-haired Prince Guyue.

Instead, Prince Guri said to Temurong again: "Great Khan, it doesn't matter if you win or lose. As long as my wolf court is fully prepared, straightens out the rear, sets foot in Ximozhou, and wades the army south, why worry about the great cause? ”

"No!" Nomin spoke up. "Rushing into the army will only make it difficult for the wolf court to ride the tiger. What if Da Chu and Ximo Prefecture fought back together? ”

Prince Gu Ri snorted coldly, "Let's just say that the little girl doesn't know how to march and fight." How could I be afraid of them? ”

"The six departments of the grassland, who can't fight. If you dare to come, you will fight! ”

"All the way south, kill him and turn his horse on his back."
