Chapter 231: A Game Within a Game
At the same time that the fierce general Li Zhongqiang's army captured Xiao Songxi, there was also a team of men and horses slowly infiltrating the perimeter of Nalan's camp.
The group was masked and armed with sharp blades.
I saw that this group of men and horses fell with the gesture of the leader, and they raised the sharp blades in their hands one after another, and quickly stabbed towards the camp tent!
"No one, search!" The leader had a fierce face.
The man in black took advantage of the moonlight to carefully screen Nalan's figure.
Just when Nalan saw Xiao Songxi, he exclaimed, "Eldest princess, go quickly!" ”
After speaking, he patted the horse next to him, and he stood behind alone.
Xiao Songxi was wondering why the Praetorian Guards had arrived so quickly when he saw this group of men in black attacking.
Without thinking about it, Xiao Songxi had to flee on horseback.
Most of the men in black were fighting with Nalan, and a very small number of them chased after Xiao Songxi, who escaped.
Nalan looked at this group of people and said sharply, "Who are you?" ”
The leading man chuckled, "Lord Nalan, today, you are destined to die here, who let you stand in the way of others!" ”
Nalan Shankun realized that these were not from Beiling, but from Dajin.
"Who the hell sent you?" Nalan glared with his sword.
But these black-clothed men didn't say much, and went straight to the sword.
In the process of fighting, Nalan found that these people were not bad, not like ordinary soldiers, and it seemed that they were killed today.
Nalan, who gradually couldn't parry, had to retreat while fighting.
until you retreat to the edge of the cliff.
The man in black quickly assembled into a phalanx and approached Nalan step by step.
"Die!" With the leader's order, everyone rushed towards Nalanqi.
Nalan glanced at the turbulent river, and secretly sighed that he had been frank all his life, and he ended up like this!
In a hurry, I had to jump down......
These black-clothed people probably didn't expect Nalan to jump off the cliff, and walked to the edge of the cliff one after another.
"Lord Liu, if you are so tall, you will definitely die!" The other said to the leader.
Lord Liu bent down and picked up a stone from the hand, threw it down hard, and after carefully distinguishing the falling sound, he said: "It's so high, the downstream is a waterfall, he can't live!" Walk! ”
The other side.
The man in black chased Xiao Songxi all the way to the west.
Xiao Songxi tightened the reins and kept looking back at the man in black.
The man in black behind him was also galloping on his horse.
Just when Xiao Songxi confirmed the man in black again, he saw that the man in black quickly threw out a flying knife, and in an instant, it pierced the horse's leg, startling the horse's hooves and neighing.
Xiao Songxi, who had rolled down in a circle, felt like she was cracking, and before she could react, she saw the man in black stabbing at her.
Xiao Songxi covered his bleeding arm and roared, "Who are you? ”
I saw a man in black and said: "Our emperor never makes a loss-making business, instead of asking for a few cities, wouldn't it be better to take Beiling into his pocket?" ”
Xiao Songxi was instantly shocked, "You are from Huo Jiheng's faction?" ”
The man in black looked at the frightened Xiao Songxi and laughed madly, "It's so beautiful, it's a pity to die, otherwise, you come to beg your brother, perhaps, I can leave you a whole corpse." ”
Xiao Songxi snorted sharply, "You are also worthy!" ”
The man in black turned pale, "Then don't blame me for being rude!" ”
After speaking, he raised his hand to stab Xiao Songxi.
Just as the tip of the sword was piercing straight towards him, suddenly, a "Whoosh!" sound came from his ear. ”
I saw a dagger hit the sword of the man in black, and suddenly, the sword body collapsed in half.
Xiao Songxi turned his head, and it was the generals under his command who arrived on horseback.
"Eldest Princess!" The general led a group of men and horses to rush towards this side.
The man in black saw that there were many people and horses, and they retreated one after another, "Go!" ”
The general, Long Hai, wearing armor, ran to Xiao Songxi's side and helped Xiao Songxi up.
"Why did you get here?" Xiao Songxi was stunned.
Long Hai said: "Thanks to the news from the palace, Emperor Dajin deliberately dragged you, and then, sent a message to His Majesty, Emperor Dajin said that if you donate, you can ask Beiling for half of the country!" ”
Xiao Songxi's heart was cold when she heard this, she was smart, how could she believe Huo Jiheng......
Nanalan......
Immediately, Xiao Songxi was so distressed that he gritted his teeth, and his eyes cracked and said: "Today, he hurts me with a lot of gold, and tomorrow I will make them pay the price of blood!" ”
At the gate of the city, eight hundred miles are urgent.
A horse galloped towards the palace.
Li Qing was holding the envelope at this time, his face was full of sadness, and he trotted all the way into the Zhengxin Palace.
"Your Majesty, secret letter!" Li Qing presented the envelope.
Huo Jiheng took the envelope and saw that it was clearly written: "Beiling." ”
After opening the envelope with great trepidation, Huo Jiheng was stunned.
"Xuan Wanzheng!" After a long time, Huo Jiheng came back to his senses, and his voice was weak.
Li Qing didn't dare to delay, and immediately found someone to inform Wan Zheng.
After a while, Wan Zheng walked in solemnly.
"See the emperor."
Huo Jiheng looked calm and handed the letter to Wan Zheng, "Take a look." ”
Wan Zheng hurriedly took the envelope and looked at it carefully.
This look made Wan Zheng sweat too, "How is this possible?" ”
"Has Lin Xian'an arrived?" Huo Jiheng's whole mind is chaotic now.
Li Qing hurriedly replied, "Lord Lin will be here soon." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xian'an came in with a sweaty head.
Similarly, after reading the letter, Lin Xian'an didn't say a word for a long time.
"How's the battle going in Beiling?" Huo Jiheng asked.
Wan Zheng happened to have just received the news and replied: "I just received the news, the eldest princess, with the support of the old department, unexpectedly captured the palace, and the Beiling Emperor has fled south. ”
At this moment, Li Qing didn't care about the ministers talking about things, and dared to come in and report: "Your Majesty, Wen Chang is back." ”
This is the person who knows the details best, and Huo Jiheng immediately announced him in.
It's just that after Wen Chang came in, Huo Jiheng was stunned, only to see that Wen Chang's whole body was covered with blood, his clothes were almost all soaked in blood, and the whole person was weak with only breathing out and no signs of breathing.
"Where's the Imperial Doctor! Tell the Imperial Doctor! ”
After hearing Huo Jiheng's voice, Wen Chang, who was originally unconscious, struggled to open his eyes half-open.
"Wen Chang!" Huo Jiheng hurried closer.
Wen Chang saw that it was really the emperor, and he couldn't help but leave tears in the corners of his eyes, "The emperor-Shang-"
"Beiling came to report to Xiao Songxi and threatened that Dajin was plotting against half of Beiling, and wanted to join forces with Emperor Beiling to put her to death, how could this be? What's going on? Huo Jiheng said anxiously.
Wen Chang really didn't know why, so he had to shake his head, "I only saw a group of men in black chasing and killing Xiao Songxi. ”
"Where's Nalan?" Huo Jiheng asked.
Wen Chang shook his head, "I don't know ......"
Now, Huo Jiheng has no clue at all, he is inexplicably charged with this crime, he can't bear it no matter what!
Lin Xian'an analyzed: "The war in Beiling is tight, and if you want to send troops to Dajin, it will take time. However, until the situation is clear, the army must always be ready. ”
Huo Jiheng furrowed his eyebrows.
"With whom?" Huo Jiheng, who was standing by the window, asked coldly.
Lin Xian'an pondered for a moment and replied: "Right now, General Chang Bojiang and Tang Yan are the most powerful in the army. ”
No one saw it, and a trace of regret flashed in Huo Jiheng's eyes......
