Qianqing Palace.

Inner hall, study.

The Great Xia Emperor Nangong Tianti stood at the table, staring straight at the calligraphy and paintings on the table.

The man in black stood aside and said respectfully: "The Praetorian Guard has been prepared, and there are no enemy troops fifty miles outside the imperial city." ”

"Additional guards have been deployed around the Imperial City, and all preparations have been made."

This man in black is Nangong Tian's henchman An Qiang, and after learning of Dongping's sudden visit, Nangong Tian felt uneasy, lest this group of people lead troops to raid the imperial city.

Nangong Tian nodded slightly, "Okay, pass on my will, and Xuan Dongping's envoys will come to see you." ”

To make sure nothing goes wrong, he has to be prepared to keep all dangers out of the way.

The little eunuch received the order and bowed down to the post official to announce the decree.

Here, An Qiang said with some concern: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that the purpose of Dongping's envoy's visit this time is not pure, and I also ask Your Majesty to think that the dragon body is healthy, don't hurt the dragon body because of the popularity of inconsegalitous people." ”

Nangong Tian's face was calm, and he tried his best to hide his tiredness, but the green silk and pale face under his eyes revealed his fatigue.

During this time, Nangong Tian had not slept well.

Because of the success of Dayue's raid, he became suspicious of the hundred officials of Great Xia.

On the surface, he sent the five princes and Lin Cang to investigate the turmoil in the court.

Secretly, he struck with both fists, while vigorously recruiting soldiers, developing military strength, and rewarding capable generals without hesitation.

On the other side, mobilize all the spies to thoroughly investigate the details of the hundred officials of Great Xia.

I don't know if I don't check this, I am shocked when I check it, and it is difficult to find even a clean official.

After thinking about it again and again, now is not the time to punish the traitors, and can only find suitable candidates to temporarily deter the officials.

Lin Cang has no foundation, is brave and strategic, and is obviously the most suitable candidate.

Seeing that Nangong Tian hadn't spoken for a long time, An Qiang saw his thoughts, and said with some unease: "Your Majesty, do you really think Lord Lin can handle this matter well?" ”

"Who else can you count on but him?"

Nangong Tian's tone was indifferent, and he waved his big hand, "Swing, Taihe Palace." ”

Taihe Temple.

The singing and dancing in the hall is leveled, and the aftermath is lingering.

After receiving the news, the hundred officials of Great Xia hurried to the Taihe Hall in an instant.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Nangong Tian sat on the main seat, swept over the civil and military officials with complicated eyes, and the killing intent in his eyes flashed.

In the end, his gaze fell on Lin Cang, and he sighed after all.

It was at this time.

The eunuch's high-pitched voice sounded, "The envoy of Great Xia asks to see." ”

Nangong Tian raised his hand.

The eunuch beside him pulled a sharp voice, "Xuan." ”

In the disgusted gaze of the hundred officials of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The three of them walked towards the center of the hall with a relaxed expression.

As soon as they arrived at the center of the main hall, the three of them bowed together, "Bai Fengxi, the lord of Huofeng County, Xiao Zhen, the prince of Wei Rui, and Qiu Feng, the envoy of Anping, visited the Emperor of Great Xia, and the emperor Wanfu Jin'an." ”

During the whole process, the three of them were all calm, especially Bai Fengxi, the lord of Huofeng County.

This Bai Fengxi is also a strange person, she was originally from a poor family, and she disguised herself as a man to fight for her father for several years, and she made many miraculous achievements on the battlefield.

After his identity was revealed, it was a capital crime to deceive the monarch, but Empress Dongping tried her best to protect her life, and she also appreciated her talent and made an exception to be appointed as the county lord to senate the court.

Bai Fengxi did not disappoint the queen either.

After she participated in the government and politics, she solved many problems in the Great Xia century with her ingenuity, and for a time her reputation spread far and wide, and the scenery was infinite.

She sneaked into Great Xia in private and knew a lot about the whole Great Xia.

Regarding the situation in the Great Xia court, even these Great Xia officials did not have a comprehensive understanding of her.

Prince Nangong Jingheng took a step forward and saluted: "Lord Huofeng, I have admired the name for a long time. ”

Bai Fengxi was blessed, and said with a light smile: "This is His Royal Highness the Prince, I have long heard that the Prince of Great Xia is a talent of Yiqun, and it is better to be famous than to meet Yushu Linfeng, a talent." ”

The corners of Nangong Jingheng's mouth rose, and he continued coldly: "The county lord has praised it falsely, I don't know what the county lord has to do with this envoy to Great Xia?" ”

Bai Fengxi was silent, and Qiu Feng, who was standing behind her, answered: "That's the case, this period of time coincides with the great drought and food shortage in our country, and the envoys of Dayue have allocated a lot of relief food. ”

"Now that the situation between Great Xia and Great Yue is critical, the Son of Heaven of our country has thought of the friendship between the two countries and sent me to inquire about Great Xia's attitude towards this matter."

"That's it, let's see how your country handles it."

Qiu Feng said it reasonably, and Man Chao was shocked when he heard it.

"What is Dayue doing with them to help us with food?"

"He has an attitude of caring about other countries' food relief, and I don't know if it is because my country has a request for them."

"I don't see them helping in the flood in my country, obviously they just want to rob it, why do you say these high-sounding words?"

.....

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all indignant and sneered at Qiu Feng's brazen words.

"Huh."

Prince Nangong Jingheng smiled sarcastically, "Now that the situation in Kyushu is turbulent, if Dongping really wants to start a war against Great Xia, even if he lets the horse come, there is no need to disgust people with these words." ”

The dignity of the country cannot be trampled on, and Nangong Jingheng, as the prince of Great Xia, will never allow anyone to threaten the interests of Great Xia.

Since ancient times, a weak country has no diplomacy, but he Daxia has never been a weak country, and has always been the strongest iron plate!

The envoys of Dongping deceived people too much, insulted the prestige of our country, and will not be tolerated.

His eyes were scarlet, and his heart was filled with rage.

Qiu Feng stiffened, he didn't expect Nangong Jingheng to be so rigid.

Just when he was panicking.

A silver bell-like laugh rang out.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said seriously, I, Dongping, have always been good friends with your country, how can I meet with your country's soldiers."

"It's just that in recent days, our people have indeed been in dire straits, and Dayue has taken the opportunity to win us over, which makes us very embarrassed."

Bai Fengxi bowed to Nangong Tian, "Emperor Mingjian of Great Xia, the situation is turbulent now, and one more friend is better than multiple enemies." ”

Her voice was soft, but every word had a murderous intent hidden in it.

There was no fool in the audience, and who couldn't hear the threat in her words.

Dongping's purpose this time is self-evident, if he didn't want to reap the benefits in the hands of Daxia, he would have joined Dayue's camp a long time ago.

Hearing this,

The anger of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty was even greater.

On the dragon chair, Nangong Tian's face was extremely ugly.

Nangong Jingheng stood aside with a calm face, he didn't want to get involved in this matter.

Even if he said that he had won Dongping, Dongping would use this as an excuse to send troops to Great Xia, which would definitely make him a fuss.

There are lessons from the past, at this moment, Nangong Jingrong is not willing to give up personal gains and losses for the sake of national righteousness.

Seeing that none of the people present spoke, the expressions on the faces of the three Dongping envoys became more and more proud.

The officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other, all thinking about how to save the scene.

A hearty voice suddenly sounded.

"What you said is indeed reasonable, our two countries have deep feelings, and we must stand in the same camp and help each other in times of difficulty."

Hear that.

Everyone's eyes were on the speaker.

Lin Cang walked over from the corner, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What did Lord Lin say, why should we help them?"

"At this juncture, when it comes to national interests, Lord Lin should not make trouble."

"Shut up, you're everywhere."

"Don't say that, Lord Lin is witty and has a lot of ghost ideas, maybe he really has a way to clean up this group of people."

"I'll see the hanging."

...

Listening to the ministers talking to himself, Lin Cang didn't take it to heart.

Bai Fengxi was still smiling, and raised his eyes to look at Lin Cang, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

"A small official in Great Xia, Lin Cang." Lin Cang said lightly.

Lin Cang?

Is that the infamous forest dog?

Seeing such a wicked person, even Bai Fengxi, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

Looking at Lin Cang's face, thinking about Lin Cang's words just now, it was really as annoying as a rumor.

Bai Fengxi's face became a little ugly, and he said coldly: "It's Lord Lin from afar, and I'm afraid that everyone in the whole Kyushu knows Lord Lin's 'prestige'." ”

She gritted her teeth and said the word prestige.

The disdain in Xiao Zhen's eyes was even worse, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

It seems that the rumors are overestimating Lin Gou, but he is just a fool, and he thought it would be difficult to deal with, but he didn't fall for them.

Xiao Zhen said comfortably: "Lord Lin said so earnestly, presumably Lord Lin is qualified to be the master of the Great Xia Dynasty, right?" ”

"It's better for Lord Lin to know the current affairs, hurry up and provide relief food for us in Dongping."

Qiu Feng then added: "As long as the amount you provide can satisfy us, our two countries will always be one family." ”

The words fell.

Most of them were so angry that their facial features were distorted, and they wanted to punish the three of them on the spot immediately.

Unlike everyone, Nangong Jingheng and Nangong Jingchuan's party were overjoyed.

If you can take the opportunity to punish Lin Cang, this profitable business must be a great thing.

Nangong Jingrong asked worriedly, "Lord Lin, do you want to?" ”

Lin Cang waved his hand, signaling him to relax, his eyes fell on Bai Fengxi and continued: "It's okay to take relief food from our Great Xia, but we have to make a good fortune. ”

Bai Fengxi looked at Lin Cang suspiciously, and asked, "How do you set up a lottery head?" ”

Lin Cang continued lightly: "The three of you all have your own excellent skills, we might as well give it a try." ”

"As for what you will try, the referee rules will be discussed between the two sides, and we will win two in three games."

"As long as you can win, you can take whatever you want."

The words just fell.

The eyes of these three people suddenly lit up, for fear that Lin Cang would regret it.

Xiao Zhen hurriedly asked, "What if we lose?" ”

Hearing this, Lin Cang rolled his eyes and said lightly: "There is a shortage of people in my house, if you lose, stay with me as a servant." ”

"The lord of Huofeng County will be my foot-washing maid, Xiao Shizi will be the guard, and the envoy Qiu will be the little servant."

He said what everyone thought was the most incredible in the most serious tone.

Bai Fengxi was so shocked that the corners of his mouth twitched, and his face became a little distorted.

She took a deep breath and said as calmly as she could, "Lord Lin, don't tease us anymore at this time. ”

Lin Cang waved his hand innocently, "Didn't you tease us first?" ”

"Why can't you afford to play now, but you talk about me?"

"Are you surrendering?"

Listening to Lin Cang's soul three questions, Xiao Zhen just wanted to reason with him.

Nangong Jingchuan hurriedly interrupted and said with bad intentions: "Lin Cang's matter is a big matter, my father is here, what qualifications do you have to make decisions for national affairs?" ”

Lin Cang sighed, "I promise to only win and not lose, otherwise I will pay for my guilt with my life." ”
