Chapter 321: Conspiracy and Calculation
A few days later, it was night.
In the Qin Hao Embroidery Brocade Workshop, a man in a black robe knelt respectfully in front of the disfigured old woman with her head embroidered with flowers, and said respectfully:
"Your Highness, my subordinates have personally traveled to Hanyong Guangling City in accordance with your orders these days, and they have already met with the young master.
The two Northern Dynasty guards with a high martial arts realm beside the Southern Dynasty Doctor, according to the young master, may be the head of the 36 Divisions of the Northern Dynasty Handyong, the person of the Yuwen Department Hulu Holy Altar.
Some time ago, these people seemed to have made a name for themselves in Guangling City, and one of them had saved Tuoba Hong, the emperor of the Northern Dynasty, in the martial arts festival of the Hanyong Dynasty;
As for the female guard with a scar on her face, her origin is even more difficult, according to the young master, she is actually the deputy envoy of the Hulu Altar who had just passed away. Since the death of the Holy Envoy of Malaya, the new Holy Envoy has gone into retreat at a young age, and now the Holy Altar of Hulu is in charge of her. β
"What?"
Ning Po stopped her movements, frowned and said:
"The deputy envoy of the Hulu Altar? How is this possible, Hulu Holy Altar is the holy place of the Yuwen Department in the 36 parts of Handyong in the Northern Dynasty.
The people of the Northern Realm have always been arrogant, especially the people of the Northern Dynasty who have a high martial arts realm, and they have always looked down on the people of the Southern Dynasties.
How could the deputy envoy and master of the Hulu Holy Altar be a guard for a sick and weak Southern Dynasty healer with a low martial arts realm? This is not quite right, is the news that Ayi inquired about true? β
The man paused slightly, and hesitated for a moment, but still said:
"Your Highness, the young master has been operating in Handyong for ten years, so there shouldn't be a mistake in thinking about the news?"
Ning Po shook her head in disbelief, her face confused.
Yes, her ninth brother Su Yi has been lurking in Handyong for many years, and even entered the Yuwen Department, the head of the thirty-six departments of Handyong, and it stands to reason that the news from the Hulu Holy Altar will not be mistaken.
It's just that this conclusion still doesn't make sense when you think about it.
She vaguely remembered that the female guard beside Xie Yilu from the Southern Dynasty seemed to be a master with a knife.
So Ning Po confirmed again and asked:
"Since you said that the female guard next to the Southern Dynasty Doctor Law is the deputy envoy of the Hulu Holy Altar, and she is also a famous and surnamed figure, then her natal weapon should not be a secret, and the weapon used by the deputy envoy is a knife?"
The man immediately bowed his hand and replied:
"Your Highness, the weapon used by Bo Xuan, the deputy envoy of the Hulu Holy Altar, is the most used knife by the people of the Northern Dynasties. I heard that the knife was urged by internal force, and the blade faintly sounded the sound of a dragon's groan, so it was called 'Crying Dragon Waste'. β
Ning Po shook her head in horror.
She nodded thoughtfully and said, ".' Crying dragon famine'? Then you can't be wrong, the scabbard in the female guard's hand is indeed engraved with the seal of the dragon, which can match. β
Ning Po felt that this matter was quite tricky.
The Yuwen Department, the first major department of Hanyong in the Northern Dynasty, has produced countless queens of the Middle Palace of the Northern Dynasty, and their clan altar Hulu Holy Altar is famous and well-known in the entire northern grassland.
It stands to reason that the people of the Hulu Altar will never leave the altar for no reason, let alone when the Holy Envoy is newly mourned and the young envoy is young, the deputy envoy who will be in charge of the authority of the Hulu Altar in the next few years is actually far away from the Arro Grassland, and travels in all directions with a little-known Southern Dynasty goddess doctor, isn't this nonsense?
Ning Po's throat was choked by smoke in the fire back then, so her voice was inevitably a little hoarse when she spoke.
She muttered to herself, "This Xie Zhao. Who the hell is it? Her origins are definitely not simple. β
Ning Po had an ominous premonition in her heart, as if something was gradually getting out of her control.
She pondered seriously for a moment in silence, and suddenly said decisively:
"What else did Ayike explain? We have recently finished many matters on the side of Muskton as soon as possible, and then we will withdraw from Muskton City.
At that time, I will hide in the town government on the western border, waiting for the opportunity to find out the information of Muskton City at any time; And you will take all our men and go to the Northern Dynasty to look for Ah Yi at onceβthis place should not stay for long, otherwise it will inevitably change later. β
The man was stunned and said:
"-What? Your Highness, how can this be? We can't leave you alone in Western Xinjiang! β
Ning Po looked solemn, shook her head slightly, and then said coldly:
"You just have to do what you are told, and now that there is such an unknown 'strongman' in Muskton City, I am really uneasy.
You are too conspicuous to stay in Muskton City, or you will be caught in the pot sooner or later. Quickly going to the Northern Dynasty to join Ayi is the best choice to preserve strength.
Don't waste any more time, what is the message that Ah Yi ordered you to bring this time, and what else does he need from our side to do something? β
Seeing her resolute attitude, the man didn't dare to persuade again, so he had to sigh and reply truthfully:
"The young master did have an explanation, he said that the 'nail' he had placed in the Zhaoge City in Kyoto of the Southern Dynasty had sent back the word that Emperor Jing, the son of heaven in the Southern Dynasty, intended to marry his sister-in-law, Princess An Ning, to Peng Xiao, the guard general of Langya."
Ning Po frowned, and said in a hoarse voice:
"What does this have to do with us? The left and right are just a marriage between a princess and a general, what can affect the overall situation? β
The man arched his hand and replied: "The young master said that the identity of this Langya guard is very different, but he is the personal disciple of General Xie Huanchen Xie in the past, and he can be regarded as the rising star of the Xie family in the army - if he dies in this stall, he may provoke some turmoil in the temples of the Southern Dynasty." β
Ning Po raised her eyebrows lightly and said puzzledly:
"What if that young general Peng Xiao is Xie Huanchen's disciple? If he dies, he will die, and how much splash can he make?
Even if his master Xie Huanchen was brave and good at fighting and had a prominent status, what could General Xie do now, but now General Xie is afraid that the bones and scum will rot, and the Xie family will have no one in the army for a long time.
And now the 'Thousand Years Old Sword Immortal', the most prominent in the Xie family's bloodline, has also been destroyed by the Southern Dynasty Emperor.
Even if we sacrifice a lot and let that Peng Xiao be stabbed to death, who will give a mere Langya guard a head? What kind of turmoil can his death provoke in the temples of the Southern Dynasty? β
The man replied: "Your Highness, the young master once said that the 'nail' he buried in Zhaoge City is now exerting force, provoking the dissatisfaction of another eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty with the Son of Heaven of the Southern Dynasty.
If our manpower can kill Peng Xiao on the way to Beijing, and then blame the Minghe Bai clan of the Southern Dynasty, then it will be reasonable and everything will be seamless!
At that time, the eldest princess of An Ning guarded the door, and the emperor of the Southern Dynasty personally gave the marriage to the horse master, but on the way to get married, he was 'assassinated' by the people of the Minghe Bai clan. β
Ning Po was stunned and said:
"Ah Yi actually plans to do this?"
She pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly:
"That's a brilliant plan! Although the emperor of the Southern Dynasty married the concubine of the Minghe Bai clan as the queen of the Yuan, he must also be secretly wary of the Minghe Bai clan, as can be seen from the fact that he set the descendants of the Xie family in the army as his son-in-law to the eldest princess of Anning, instead of reusing the men and horses of the Minghe Bai clan in the army.
If it is at this time, the people of the 'Minghe Bai Clan' assassinated the future military assistant and sister-in-law personally selected by the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, I am afraid that Tianchen, the little emperor, must hate him in his heart Minghe Bai Clan, and even feel that they are bullying the emperor and intending to overthrow him as an emperor, so that he will have no one to use in the future and can only rely on them! But "
Ning Po was puzzled, she frowned and raised her eyes to look at the man, and said puzzledly:
"In this way, there may be no impermeable walls in the world. If Ah Yi really made up his mind to take such a move, I am afraid that if Bai Mengxian's old thing knows that we are secretly blaming him, he will definitely have a grudge with us, and he will completely kill Bai's chess move in the future. β
The man replied respectfully:
"Your Highness, the young master said that there is no need to worry about this, now in Tianchen of the Southern Dynasty, he has raised enough 'nails', and they are all still useful.
As for the Minghe Bai clan, they have always been left and right, cunning and cunning, inadequate and scheming, and we use this to part ways with them, which is to kill two birds with one stone. β
Ning Po pondered for a moment when she heard this, and finally nodded.
"Okay, you go and pass on my instructions, and all our dead soldiers in the Western Frontier will immediately go south and join Ayi's men to act."
She smiled sadly.
Under the candlelight, her flickering face, after the fire burned, distorted like a ghost.
Ning Po muttered:
"Didn't Xie Huanchen like to meddle in things back then? Now he must be very lonely underground, so we will send General Xie's personal disciple down so that he can accompany him! β
