Chapter 44: The False Path
"His Royal Highness King Yi, that Liaodan Khan, ran away."
"Ran away?" Jiang Tianluo picked up the long sword and was about to stand up, "I'll go and catch him back!" β
"What's the hurry! Come back! β
Li He stretched out his hand and carried her back.
"Senior brother, you just said that he has more than ten masters of the Pulling Machine Pavilion to take care of him, how can he let people run away!"
"Tell me about you," he stretched out his finger and nodded in front of Jiang Tianluo's nose, "when will you learn from your sister-in-law?" Calm down and think more about things - I don't know how Master taught you before, don't fight and kill every day. β
Hearing such a title, Li Qianyin raised her eyebrows, but she did not refute it.
"What's wrong with the fight, kill, kill!"
Jiang Tianluo's neck was horizontal, and one hand was slapped on his sword, "As long as I am here, the Liaodan Iron Cavalry will not want to step into the gate of Pingzhou!" β
β...... Tigress ......" Li Heyang muttered in a low voice, "Who would dare to marry such a violent woman." β
Jiang Tianluo sneered, glanced at Lu Wenyong, who had not yet fully come out of his grief, rolled his eyes, and said in a weird manner:
"Men are cold by nature, and their belated love is cheaper than weeds, some people want to marry, but the old lady doesn't want to marry!"
"Tianluo," Li Qianyin stretched out her hand to grab the angry girl, and then saw Gu Qingrang, who was sitting opposite and had red ears and wanted to speak, and interrupted her mouth with a smile, "The one who was let go is not Yelu Dejin." β
"Huh?"
"It's Xie Bi'an."
"The two are impermanent, driving away corpses and souls, although the seventh master is not good at force, he is a good hand at divination and astrology, and he has the kung fu of painting skin and changing souls, which is far more powerful than the disguise technique."
Li Hebiao frowned, and the tea cup in his hand couldn't help but clench a little.
"The opportunity is rare, that Empress Dowager Shulu will definitely try her best to let her second son die in Pingzhou, and the Seventh Master is going to their camp this time to confuse the public and drag them back. And I will go to Liaodan Linhuang with Yerod Jin to regain power for him. β
Although this matter is still too risky, only this move can make a gamble.
As long as he finds a way to make Li Kang forced to have no choice but to send troops to contend with the Empress Dowager Shulu, and wait until one of them is defeated before attacking from the Liaodan headquarters, he can reap the benefits.
"It's just that senior brother, you have deceived him so many times, and the distance from Pingzhou to Linhuang is not close, how do you make him believe you along the way?"
"Don't worry."
Li Qianyin's left hand gathered slightly, and under the light purple mist condensed at the fingertips, there was a small green worm, and the color was very terrifying.
"Yerod's heart is the Gu poison of this Gu, although it will not be fatal with one blow, but it will eat away at people's essence little by little, and finally die due to some extremely small diseases, this kind of death is no different from dying of illness, so it is often used in royal battles."
"Before coming back, Chu Yuening told me about this Gu, and the technique of the Imperial Gu is very similar to the needle method learned by His Royal Highness, all of which are the four methods of insertion and twisting, and with the method of the Imperial Gu, it is basically nine out of ten."
"It's just that I heard that there is a shaman priestess under the Empress Dowager Shulu, whose identity is extremely mysterious, and it is said that she can probe the life and death of every clansman, and I wonder if this person will come with her."
Gu Qingrang pondered for a moment, and his tone was erratic.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid that Lord Impermanence is going to have some trouble."
......
In the north, in the camp of Liaodan.
"See the Queen Mother."
Xie Bi'an's pretended to be Yelude saw the Queen Mother enter the door and respectfully made a big salute from Liaodan.
"When did you come back?"
The Empress Dowager Shulu lost her murderous aura and when she looked up again, she was already a loving mother.
"The queen mother was clever, fortunately, she sent a team of men and horses before the army arrived in the camp, and suddenly attacked when Pingzhou was turned upside down by that little girl, so that Erchen had the opportunity to run out of the chaos."
He lowered his head to hide the calculation in his eyes, but he glanced at a slender woman wearing a sleeved shirt and a horse-faced skirt behind the upright queen mother in front of him. It's just that because of the mask, I can't tell my age and appearance.
"Oh?" Empress Dowager Shulu's tone was indifferent, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of disgust, "The former prince of the Central Plains didn't even send anyone to guard it?" β
"Naturally, three or five people were sent, but at that time, Pingzhou was almost broken, and all the real strong soldiers were sent to the front line, and the guards were just some wounded who couldn't carry their shoulders and couldn't lift them."
He looked overjoyed, "I just don't know what the queen mother will do after that?" Since the king of Nayi has been defeated yesterday, why don't we go straight into it with one go, what does the queen mother think? β
"Dejin, you have always only known about rampage, but you don't know how to march properly, so the queen mother has not handed over all the military power to you for a long time."
The Empress Dowager Shulu shook her head in a serious tone.
"Pingzhou is already in the bag, so naturally there is no need to worry. Even if it is rare in sixteen states, but your father's last wish to expand the territory needs to be cut from the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains. β
"Does the queen mother want to be like her father back then?"
"Yes, Yingzhou borders Pingzhou, although there is a Yongding Marquis guarding it, but it is also a cold mouth and teeth - Wu'er Dejin, the queen mother has given you all hopes, you immediately reorganize the army, and lead 3,000 people to Yingzhou before dawn."
The Empress Dowager Shulu, who assisted the two generations of emperors of Liaodan and personally went into battle to fight, was full of light that she was determined to get, "Although the general who had made great achievements in the Central Plains a year ago was an enemy, he could not help but admire him, but such a character actually died at the hands of his own people, which is ridiculous." β
"You will go to meet the ungrateful Yongding Marquis who betrays the lord and goes to meet the ungrateful Yongding Marquis first, I want to see if this person is cunning, what waves can he make in the face of my Liaodan tens of thousands of troops?!"
About half an hour later, the shaman saw that "Jerod" had left the tent and walked barefoot.
"Queen Mother......" she hesitated a little, "There is one thing, the situation is very strange. β
"Say."
"I found two khans in the firewood!"
Seeing that the Queen Mother did not speak, the goddess continued:
"Tianhuo can explore the life and death of each of our clansmen, but people's souls are different, if others pretend, whether it is their own clan or a foreign race, they will definitely distinguish it, but just now in the burnt wood and heavenly fire, there were actually two identical souls!"
Empress Dowager Shulu stopped what she was doing and stared at her with a frown, "Are you sure?" β
The goddess fell to her knees at once, "I've counted many times, and I'm pretty sure!" β
"Where's the other one?"
"Another ...... On the way to Linhuang Mansion in Beijing. β
"Not good!"
The woman thought for a moment, then suddenly got up and gave a sharp order:
"Immediately send an order to the eight to intercept that manβ"
"If the crockpot does not break from the wellhead, the general will inevitably die in battle."
"No matter whether these two people are true or not, they must not be allowed to return to my Liaodan alive."
