On this day, Helian Yi had just returned from Zanmeng's palace, and the attendant handed her the letter she had just sent, and Helian Yi couldn't wait to open it and look at it. Shen Liuxiang saw her sad expression after reading it, and couldn't help asking, "Princess, is Your Highness okay over there?" ”

Helian Yi let out a long sigh: "More than ten cities have been captured, but now the whole people of the Wuyu clan are soldiers, and they are fighting hard to resist the enemy. He also said that Helian Dingbang also planned to send troops to reinforce the Wuyu clan, and His Royal Highness wanted to cut through the chaos quickly, but he was afraid that everything would not be satisfactory. ”

"There are Buddhist halls everywhere here, and I'll go and ask for more tomorrow." Shen Liuxiang glanced at He Lianyi after speaking, and saw that she looked tired and indifferent, but she didn't seem to hear her words. For these days, she had not been able to figure out what Helian Yi was thinking, but she kept letting Qi Yue secretly wander between Daning and Lengyougu, and it seemed that she had decided to part ways with Xiao Yunyan.

Helian Yi stared straight out of the window, I don't know what kind of ghost made the power of God, Helian Yi took out the letter that Qi Yue brought back to Helian Yi from the cold valley, and there was no word on the letter, only the word "from the heart".

......

A small city in Wuyu is full of banners of "Xiao" and "Liang". Obviously, this place has been encroached upon by Xiao Yunyan. In the big tent of the Chinese army, Xiao Yunyan arranged tomorrow's marching formation for a group of generals, and suddenly a young general came in to report: "Your Highness, the spies have reported that the Ning army has entered Gaoyang City this afternoon." ”

Xiao Yunyan asked, "How many people came?" Who led the army? ”

"I heard that it is 120,000 troops, Luan Muling's army."

"120,000?" Xiao Yunyan snorted, as if he didn't believe it at all, and then looked back at Leng Qingquan, the staff member recommended to him by his maternal grandfather Yang Zhengwu, and asked, "Mr. Leng, do you know anything about Luan Mu?" ”

"I have some understanding, I heard that he and Feng Mi are Helian Dingbang's right-hand men, and both of them were present at the Changning Palace Palace Incident that year. Luan Mu made waves in Ningguo, and helped Helian Dingbang kill many loyal and innocent people, and everyone knew that this person was an arrogant and domineering person. With his temperament, he would not take the king of the Wuyu clan in his eyes. After Mr. Leng finished speaking, he asked the young general: "How much grain and grass did Ning Jun prepare when he came this time?" ”

The young general replied: "I have never seen any grain and grass. ”

When Xiao Yunyan heard this, he immediately looked at Mr. Leng, who was also surprised, "Your Highness, maybe this Luan Mu's 120,000 army is here to help us?" ”

Xiao Yunyan nodded, remembering that Helian Dingbang had never restrained or even connived at his subordinate generals, and suddenly slapped the table hard: "Okay, what this king is waiting for is someone like Luan Mu, and what he is waiting for is this opportunity." After thinking about it, he ordered: "A truce will be held in the next few days, right?" You pay close attention to the movements of Gaoyang City, and report at any time. ”

"This won't work, Your Highness." When the generals saw that they and others had discussed for several hours, the results were all out at once, and they were all puzzled, and Luo Hong took the lead in stopping them.

Mr. Leng had no choice but to explain for Xiao Yunyan: "The reason why the Wuyu Clan in the land of small balls has allowed us to fight for so long is because all their people are united in hatred of the enemy, just to protect their home country. But now it's different, once the Ning army enters, they will soon be torn apart. ”

The generals thought for a long time before they realized that what Mr. Leng said was not unreasonable, and Luo Hong said: "Mr. Leng is reasonable. ”

Retreated.

For several days, the Great Liang army has been sticking to the city, and no matter how much the Ning army calls the battle, they will not fight. After waiting for ten days, until early on the morning of the eleventh day, Luo Hu hurriedly came to report: "Your Highness, the state minister of the Wuyu clan has asked to see His Highness. ”

Xiao Yunyan had already prepared that the Wuyu clan would inevitably send someone to ask for a meeting in the past few days, but when he heard it, it was the minister of state, and after looking at each other with Mr. Leng, Xiao Yunyan still said: "Hang him for a few hours first, let him wait first." ”

"Yes."

The state minister of the Wuyu clan waited from morning to almost noon before he was finally summoned by Xiao Yunyan.

Seeing the minister of the Wuyu clan who was dressed in cloth walking in with Luo Hu, Xiao Yunyan got up to greet him: "This king personally supervised the training of the troops this morning, and the army just had to rest, so that the minister of the country waited for a long time, and he also looked at the minister of the country, Haihan." ”

The prime minister was both sincerely frightened, and his face was gloomy, "Don't dare, don't dare, the foreign minister has seen His Royal Highness King Ji." ”

Xiao Yunyan asked knowingly: "I don't know what the Minister of State is here?" ”

The prime minister didn't go around in circles, and went straight to the point: "His Royal Highness King Ji, that Luan Mu is simply a robber with a beast's heart and a mad heart, they connived at the army to trample on the people, not only burning, killing and looting the food in the people's homes, but also robbing the wives and daughters of the people's families, and they don't treat the people as human beings at all." And that's not all. Even to my king is insulting in every way, he treats Changning Palace as if it is his own home, acting recklessly, even my king's concubines are occupied......" The minister sighed, but he couldn't say any more.

Xiao Yunyan sneered, "Didn't Luan Mu come here with your majesty wagging his tail and begging for mercy?" ”

The minister shook his head again and sighed, "Who would have thought that Helian Dingbang would be cheating and cheating and lose his ......conscience," he said, he took out a letter from his sleeve, "His Royal Highness King Ji, in front of His Royal Highness, I don't say secret words: This is a letter from my king to His Royal Highness King Ji, and my king knows that His Royal Highness King Ji is generous and benevolent, so he specially ordered the ministers to present a letter to His Royal Highness with a sentence......"

"What?"

"My king only wants to live in the world in the future......"

Xiao Yunyan read the surrender book, and as he guessed, after Luan Mu entered the Wuyu clan, he wantonly trampled on the people, causing the hatred of the people. Earlier, the Wuyu clan was united in their confrontation, and now, many people have threatened to rebel if they do not surrender the Liang army. After Luan Mu entered the country of the Wuyu clan, the king of the Wuyu clan was in an even more difficult situation. The king of the Wuyu clan made up his mind again and again, knowing that he would eventually either vote for Daliang or Daning, and the left and right countries would not be national, so it was better to choose a good tree to live in while he could still choose a good tree. He also thought that Helian Dingbang was cruel and unkind, and even killed his own flesh and blood brothers wantonly, and he would definitely find an opportunity to kill himself in the future. And Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Yunsheng's reputation for generosity and kindness are praised by the world, they govern the army strictly, even if they capture the city, they have always been kind to the people, maybe they can let themselves end up well. So, he asked the courtiers to come and ask for surrender.

Xiao Yunyan asked: "Prime Minister, since this is the case, you can give this king a bottom, how many people are coming?" ”

"It's called 120,000 troops, but it's actually 60,000, 50,000 of them have already entered the national capital Gaoyang City, and there are 10,000 waiting outside Gaoyang City to obey orders at any time. As soon as Luan Mu came, he forced my Wuyu clan army to act as the vanguard. My king would not have wanted it, so they put my king under house arrest. Your Highness, look at me like this, I have now come to His Highness secretly without their eyes and ears. ”

"So, the people in this city are all the Wuyu clan's army?"

"Your Highness, forgive me, except for Luan Mu and a few cronies, the others are all Wuyu clan troops, Luan Mu forced them to call a battle, and they had to obey."

Xiao Yunyan smiled, "Prime Minister, you are a smart person, and this king will not play dumb riddles with you, if this king makes a move at this time, it is nothing more than helping your majesty clean up the mess." If this king doesn't make a move, the people of your Wuyu clan will naturally do something to Luanmu, this king is nothing more than watching the tiger fight from the other side, not only is there no benefit to this king, but there are also benefits. ”

The minister said: "Then it seems that His Royal Highness King Ji has the conditions to mention?" ”

"Since the prime minister of the country is so refreshing, this king will not go around in circles with you, this king wants Luanmu's head, once it is done, this king will attack the city immediately, and he can also be the master in the future to treat the king of the Wuyu clan well, so that he can die a good death."

After thinking about it for a long time, the minister felt that there was no way out, so he had to grit his teeth and promise: "Okay, His Royal Highness King Ji, the ministers of the three days will definitely present Luanmu's head." ”
