The matter is much more serious than Xiao Ming's resemblance, so far, Xiao Ming has only Gu Xiaoliu, Wu Song, and Guo Shouxin by his side, Qian Baguang's artillery battalion team doesn't know where it is, and the Tiger Guard instructor who was originally placed in the Western Expedition Army can't be contacted now, but Xiao Ming still decided to save Li Qianshun, otherwise he would feel sorry for his conscience.

For Xiao Ming's decision, Gu Xiaoliu and the others all objected, if they could rush out now, it would be best to rush out and go to find Yang Qizhong's good, besides, Xiao Ming was not safe alone, Xiao Ming vetoed Gu Xiaoliu's suggestion, he knew that he was responsible for the figure of the Heavenly Decision, and others couldn't get close to him at all, it should be very convenient for a person to do something, and if there were too many people, it would become a drag.

He arranged for Wu Song to repair the damaged balloon as soon as possible, although the hydrogen balloon that had lost its inner lining, it could fly by relying on the hot air balloon alone, and this was the best way for them to get out, in addition, even if they found the horses, they were quickly caught up.

After nightfall, Xiao Ming bypassed the guards at the door alone, sneaked out, and went straight to the emperor's bedroom, this palace is very familiar, he used to often loot treasures here, so he knows the terrain here, but tonight's emperor's bedroom seems to be more tightly guarded, and mobile patrol soldiers have been added, and the original Western Xia warriors have long been replaced by Xiao Ming, so now the guards are basically all Liao army.

These Liao troops are all people brought by Ami, so Xiao Ming can't be discovered by them, he can only hide in the shadows as much as possible, fortunately, his body is extremely fast, and there is basically no danger along the way, but Xiao Ming himself has not learned the light body technique of flying eaves and walking on the wall, he can only walk quickly on the ground, and only when there is no way, he will jump on the ridge of the high wall.

Li Qianshun's dormitory was in the northeast corner of the entire palace, and there were two guards with knives guarding his door, Xiao Ming sneaked in, and the two didn't notice anything at all, but there were several large butter candles lit in the dormitory, and the yellow curtain was as bright as day, Xiao Ming heard the faint voice inside, and had no choice but to run up to the roof along the pillars again.

When Xiao Ming entered the bedroom, he saw the scene in front of him, several eunuchs and palace maids who had been bribed by Ami were grabbing Li Qianshun, but standing in front of him were the two escorts beside Ami, who had been guarding Ami's side, the guards who had stayed by Ami's side since the Wuhuai Department went to Xijing, and the guards assigned by her father's old chieftain.

Now these two people are scolding Li Qianshun, "Don't be stubborn anymore!" How will the next plan of your master not die be implemented? ”

Li Qianshun was very flustered and said: "No! No, she promised me, she promised me, he wouldn't hurt me......"

"Your Majesty, don't delay, if you have any wishes, let's say it, and we can do something for you!"

Li Qianshun hurriedly said: "I want to see my daughter, I can't die, I still want to see my Bing'er ......!" ”

One of the guards said impatiently: "Didn't your daughter elope with that Xiao Ming a long time ago?" And she has already died in Liaodong at the hands of the Jurchens of the Jin Kingdom, if you want to see her, you can only go to the underworld to see her! ”

Another guard said: "Stop talking nonsense with him!" Hurry up, we're going to rush back to our lives."

As soon as the previous one waved his hand, the palace maid and eunuch behind him picked up a white silk and tied it to Li Qianshun's neck, regardless of Li Qianshun's crying, the people behind him were about to strangle him one by one, Xiao Ming saw that this was okay, and jumped down from the hiding place, and shouted at the same time: "Stop!" ”

The eunuchs and palace maids were frightened, they saw Xiao Ming as if they had seen a ghost! Anyone who saw Xiao Ming at this moment would be shocked, and when they saw Xiao Ming's appearance clearly, their horror was even worse, Xiao Ming was a person that everyone knew, and the king of the Southern Courtyard of the Great Liao Kingdom was like thunder! The two faint red eyebrows are the legendary red-eyed Thor! No one in the Western Xia Palace knows who doesn't!

Everyone who was preparing to execute Li Qianshun didn't dare to move, but the two guards were not among them, they didn't dare to make a move on Xiao Ming, but if Xiao Ming was allowed to sabotage this execution, Ami would not be able to deal with him, so he gritted his teeth, pulled out his waist knife with a brush, and stabbed Li Qianshun in the stomach, Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, and rushed forward, but it was too late!

Li Qianshun was stabbed under the heart with a knife, and suddenly the blood gushed like a spring, and he fell to the ground, Xiao Ming hurriedly supported him, and his fingers flew out to seal Li Qianshun's several acupoints to stop the bleeding, and in this chaotic stall, the two guards threw down the knife and quickly escaped out of the door, and the eunuchs and palace maids behind them also dispersed in a hurry.

Xiao Ming gave first aid to Li Qianshun, but he did not have a surgeon on hand, and Li Qianshun suffered a wound to his abdomen, his abdominal artery was severed, and his spleen was also ruptured! Although the bleeding has been temporarily stopped, it is obviously hopeless without surgery! Xiao Ming was sweating profusely, if Li Qianshun died, not only Bing'er would be sad, but the situation in the entire Western Xia Kingdom would be chaotic!

Li Qianshun opened his eyes and saw Xiao Ming, and suddenly smiled, he shook his head at Xiao Ming and said, "Don't be busy, I can't do it, pity my Bing'er, I haven't seen her again!" "Saying that, I struggled to get up.

"If you are disturbed, you will die!"

Li Qianshun grabbed Xiao Ming's arm and said, "King Xiao! I should have hated you, but you kept my throne, and you took away Bing'er to keep him away from all this deceit and filth, so I should thank you! ”

Xiao Ming said: "I'm late, you shouldn't have died!" ”

"Forget it......!" Li Qianshun said weakly: "It seems that my life should be like this, I only have one request, I hope you will agree to me...... I want you to ...... Hope you can...... Can be good to Bing'er...... Good......! ”

Xiao Ming nodded, and Li Qianshun suddenly widened his eyes and said, "You promise me...... Promise me, ...... Take care of Bing'er for the rest of your life! If you can't do it...... I...... Even if you are a ghost, I won't let you go! ”

Xiao Ming nodded again and said, "I promise you, I will take care of her for the rest of my life, and I will be good to her!" Don't worry."

After getting Xiao Ming's promise, Li Qianshun seemed to be satisfied, and he also let out his last breath, his body was crooked, and he died of anger!

Xiao Ming felt very helpless, he couldn't save Li Qianshun's life with all his might, and he also had a heart problem on his back, that is, how to explain everything that happened here to Bing'er! Just as Xiao Ming was sighing, suddenly there was a noise in the outer hall, and a large amount of smoke rolled in, and the eunuchs and palace maids cried for help and ran around.

It turned out that after the two guards took out the dormitory, they were ruthless and set fire to the dormitory, they wanted to destroy the corpses and destroy the traces. On the other hand, he also wants to burn Xiao Ming, as soon as Xiao Ming dies, it will be a hundred, and Xiao Mimi's major event will be almost half!

The smoke is getting thicker and thicker, and you can see that there is already a red light outside, such a fire can't trap Xiao Ming at all, but Xiao Ming's heart is cold, and he is completely dead to Ami! looked at Li Qianshun's corpse on the ground, and knew that the monarch of Western Xia actually died because of himself, and he would be destroyed after death......

In the middle of the night, the fire in the emperor's dormitory of the Xixia Palace burned down a large area of the palace in the southeast corner, the palace was a chaos, everywhere was the noisy sound of people shouting and neighing, everyone whether it was the eunuch palace maid or the Liao army guards plus the patrolling soldiers all ran to put out the fire, until the second half of the night, the fire was controlled, but no one noticed that there was a black balloon rising above the palace at this time, and then slowly floated away.

Xiao Ming returned to the lower place overnight, and immediately ordered Wu Song to prepare the balloon, and then he climbed on the roof, broke the tile on the roof, and everyone worked together to refill the balloon with hot air, and the four of them got into the cockpit, taking advantage of the fire in the dormitory and the chaos everywhere, they escaped from the palace from a high altitude and went to the direction designated by Xiao Ming, that is, Dingzhou.

Dingzhou Mansion Yin Cao according to Lord Cao is also Xiao Ming's old man, Xiao Ming has arrived in Dingzhou City at dawn, he went directly to find Cao Zhi, Dingzhou is now different from the past, the excavation of coal mines has made Dingzhou City almost the most gathering place for Song Dynasty merchants, but also to Dingzhou brought rolling financial resources, Cao Zhi is now a two-person personnel, neither subject to the control of the Western Xia court nor appointed by the Liao army, he only obeys Xiao Ming's orders.

Xiao Ming's arrival surprised Cao Qizhong, and hurriedly visited, Xiao Ming didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly confessed everything that happened to him, hoping that he would escort him to the border area of Song Xia, he must see the division of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, and let him send troops to support Yang Qizhong immediately, if he finished going, he was afraid that Yang Qizhong would also be poisoned, but Cao Zhao dissuaded him.

Cao said: "Now the Great Song Dynasty does not know that General Yang was killed by Yelu Xiaoju Die in collusion with the Uighurs, but only knows that the Liao army in Western Xia did it, and General Yang Qizhong does not belong to the establishment of the Song army, but under your banner, the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty is currently on full alert to attack Western Xia to drive away the Liao army and dominate the Western Xia Kingdom, your public identity is the king of the Southern Courtyard of the former Great Liao Kingdom, it is estimated that the seed division will not trust you!" ”

"But the emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom was killed, so it is easy to provoke a civil uprising, the forces in the court of the Western Xia are already complicated, and now with the power of the Empress of Liao, they hook up with the Uighurs, so in this case, the Western Xia will definitely be in chaos, and at that time the Jin State will come to insert a lever if it is not good, and at that time, the people will suffer together in the war, but how is it good?"

Cao Yi bowed down and said: "The king is kind-hearted and can't bear to see the people suffer, Cao admires it in his heart, but now that the situation is unclear, it is not good to act rashly!" ”

Xiao Ming said: "Then what should I do?" ”

Cao said: "It is not the best way to expect any party to send troops for today's plan, they can't hide the news of Emperor Chongzong's killing, and then look at the reactions of all parties, the king might as well settle down here with me first, I will send someone to the border with you to meet the personnel, if the king can personally lead the troops, it will be a deterrent to all forces!" ”

"But I have only one artillery squad of less than two hundred people, how can this person control the situation?"

Cao Ju suddenly asked: "Can the king remember that there is a Yongning City in the southeast of Caizhou and Dingzhou, which is now occupied by General Li Cunzhong, what if you borrow troops from him?" ”

Xiao Ming's brows tightened and said: "Li Cunzhong saw the emperor suffering, and he didn't want to save the emperor but tried to protect himself, he can be described as a disloyal minister, I can't believe him."

Cao said: "Then how can it be good if there are no soldiers and horses?" ”

Xiao Ming said: "Then wait and talk about it, I need to send a letter to Chang'an, I don't know if you have a business name in Dingzhou City?" ”

"Yes, Richanglong firms are all over the northwest, and they have already opened businesses here!"

The distance between Dingzhou and Chang'an is not too far, and I received a reply on the same day, saying that Qian Baguang's artillery team had just arrived in Chang'an and was resting, and asked how to arrange it, whether it would enter Xixia and go straight to Xingqing Mansion as originally planned?

Xiao Ming's reply to them was: "If the plan is changed, go north to Yan'an Mansion now, don't go to Gyeongju anymore, go straight to Xiazhou, Xiao Ming will arrange someone to pick them up in Xiazhou, and let them come as soon as possible!" ”

Qian Baguang's reply was that it would take five days at the earliest, Xiao Ming had no choice but to wait in Dingzhou for a few days, for the sake of safety, Cao Ji sent someone to Xiazhou to pick up Qian Baguang, and Xiao Ming still stayed in Dingzhou, closely following the development of the situation.

Because Xiao Ming thought he was missing, Ami couldn't make a judgment, but this incident had happened, and the news of Li Qianshun's death finally leaked out, and rumors spread for a while, saying that the Liao army was in civil strife and wanted to kill all the people in Western Xia, and now that their emperor was also killed, the next step would be to slaughter the people! The entire Xingqing Mansion was in chaos immediately!
