Volume 3 [The Mystery of Dragon Spring] 246: Fight for the world and bargain
() Dao Meimei said, "What do you want?"
"Retreat!" Condensed incense said: "You immediately retreat ten miles and release the mother of the King of Wei, Concubine Guan." I promised you to release these three hostages. Then you take the three princes away, and the king of Wei will be taken away by me. The enthronement ceremony will end today, and there will be fair competition in the future. The two princes each showed their abilities, and the capable ones let them go. Isn't that fair?"
When a loyal minister in the audience heard this, he stood up and said: "Ridiculous! The court cannot be without a king for a day, and the Ming Dynasty cannot be without a master for a day. How can state affairs be child's play, and you outsiders will make deals? Today's enthronement ceremony is attracting the attention of the people, so how can you obey the world?"
"Okay! Since someone disagrees, then don't blame me!" she turned to the chopsticks of the Zunwu Sect and said, "Kill these three hostages immediately!"
When Condensing Xiang said this, it can be said that his eyes did not blink and his heart did not beat. When the disciple of the Zun Wu Sect received the order, he immediately drew his bright sword and was about to swing it at Mu Qiuyang and the others......
"Wait!"
Xingyun immediately stopped: "Why should the Leng Junshi bother with a group of mediocre ministers? Desperately for a gossip and destroying this dynasty will only mess things up, and it will also make your conversation with me embarrassing." ”
Condensation Xiang immediately raised his hand to persuade his subordinates, and smiled at Xingyun: "It's still Sister Xingyun's sensible and knowledgeable pros and cons. Unlike some fools, who are courtiers in vain. There is a tone in the air, but he can't see his own catties clearly. ”
As she spoke, she glanced at the talkative minister just now, stared at him and said, "If it weren't for the Sanshanmen to support you here, it would be a question of whether you could survive until now, and you would still be here to fake your loyalty!"
The old minister was ridiculed by such an out-of-court lady as Condensing Xiang, and took out his official authority and shouted: "Boldly Diao Min, who do you say are fake loyalty? You are insulting the court officials!"
Condensation Xiang really didn't like him, took two steps forward, glared at him fiercely with foxy eyes, and said, "The court official? ha...... I don't think it's an official who doesn't want to die, right? The matter between King Wei and Long San has not yet been resolved, so where is the king? Where is the court? It is because of the use of you fools that the Ming Dynasty has caused turmoil in the government and the opposition. Now that the masters are gone, you shameless and empty ministers still dare to manipulate or manipulate the authority of officials here? You still dare to mention the word 'life official'! 'Life' is in front, 'official' is behind, and life is gone, where else is the official?"
She turned back to her position, looked at the Baili Nebula, and said, "Baili Xingyun? want to negotiate...... Kill these broken-mouthed men for me! Leave him to be unfavorable to you and me, to the court, and not to the people. ”
"Xian'er, kill him!" Xingyun ordered, without the slightest hesitation.
Everyone didn't expect Xingyun to agree to kill him, and they thought that they had heard it wrong, and they couldn't adapt for a while.
Xian'er hurriedly asked, "Eldest sister, do you really want to kill?"
"Kill!" Nebula repeated.
Although Xian'er was a little unbearable, the eldest sister had already given an order, so she had to take out the beauty and take out the moon, pierce the heart with an arrow, and shoot the courtier to death.
After the event, Condensation Incense applauded and praised Xingyun: "It's comfortable to do things with you." If it weren't for the enemy, I think I'd appreciate you. Even though we're enemies, I still like you. ”
"Hahaha...... Let's get down to business, I can agree to your request, but I have one additional condition. ”
Hearing this, Condensation Xiang said, "I guessed well, it should be your master Fan Shili and your stepmother Baili Frost, right?"
"Yes, if I ask for anything else, you won't say yes. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult, since the matter of ascending the throne has been temporarily put on hold, we can only exchange for the second elder, and we have fulfilled our filial piety. ”
"Hehe, it's good to put filial piety first. But why do you think I can agree to your request?
It's enough to show my sincerity, you can't be insatiable, you have to make inches, right?"
Xingyun smiled: "If I have to make an inch, I will ask you to release Nangong Yao as well." But I know that Nangong Yao is not in your hands, so I can't be strong. At present, Fan Shili and Baili Frost are of little use to you. Don't forget, as long as I give an order, don't say that King Wei can't take you away, and even the entire Dragon and Tiger Gate will not be able to escape. ”
"Okay, I'm scared of you. Tonight, you bring Concubine Guan here to exchange hostages. With that, with a smile, he led Cai Hu Nan and Wei Wang and others down the high platform.
Xingyun said, "Zimo, summon General Nan and ask her to retreat ten miles. Do not act rashly before the time of the child. ”
Condensation smiled proudly, and dropped a word: "Hundred miles of nebula......?
Xian'er watched Condensation Xiang and the others swagger away, and said unwillingly, "Sister, did you really let them go like this?"
Xingyun asked helplessly: "Otherwise, Qiuyang, Mu Tong, and Lu Shaoan are all in her hands." We can't afford to watch our brothers die in vain!"
Dao Meimei said: "So, the Zunwu Sect took advantage of our unpreparedness to sneak attack Canglan?"
"Not necessarily!" Xingyun analyzed: "The capture of the Qiuyang brothers and sisters can conclude that Canglan is indeed lost, but whether it is the Zun Martial Sect or not, we can't make a conclusion. I think no matter how ambitious Condensation Xiang is, he won't be so bold as to go to war with us at the moment. My guess is that it was probably the desert that attacked the camp. ”
"Desert?" Xian'er wondered: "The desert went to attack Canglan, why did the Qiuyang brothers and sisters be in the hands of Condensation Incense?"
"It's simple, they're a bunch. Condensing incense will use the hand of the desert to sweep away the major forces in the Central Plains, which is also where she is smart. Let the desert do the things that harm people, let the dragon and tiger men do the things that rats touch the dogs and thieves, and the benefits are the Zunwu Sect. Zun Wumen can not only maintain its strength but also expand its scale. can also leave a good reputation and become the savior of martial arts. Hey! I really looked at this person at the beginning. Nebula sighed.
"So what now?" Bai Zimo asked.
"Fortunately, the Daming Palace has not been lost. Until the hostages are rescued, we cannot act rashly. With Nan Yingying and Chao Hu here, we will first help the prince enter the East Palace, take advantage of this time to set things right, and strangle the unhealthy trends in the court. Tonight, once Qiuyang and the others are successfully rescued, we will make the next step. They are back, and things are clear on the Canglan side. ”
At this time, Nan Yingying's Pingbei army had withdrawn ten miles away one after another.
Condensation Xiang dismissed the major forces in the rivers and lakes, and fled from the capital with the King of Wei and the people of Longhumen......
"Sir, are we going back to Lin'an or?" Cai Hu Nan asked in the car.
"No! We're going to set up camp when we leave the capital!" Condensation Xiang closed his eyes and stared, as if to relieve the smoldering fire that had just accumulated during the negotiation with Xingyun......
King Wei and Cai Hunan glanced at each other, and said very puzzled: "Encampment? Now there are 100,000 troops in ambush around the capital, if we don't hurry up and flee for our lives, we still want to set up camp here?"
Condensation Xiang still had a straight face, closed his eyes and said, "We will set up camp when we go forty miles." Cai Zhangmen, Wei Wang, Chouduyi, and several Dragon and Tiger Sect elders stayed behind and rested in place tonight. The rest of the disciples continued to drive back to the Dragon Tiger Gate. ”
Cai Hunan said worriedly: "Sir, let's stay here...... Wouldn't it be inappropriate? If the Pingbei army comes to kill us, a few of us will definitely not be able to bear it, and then King Wei and we will both die!"
"Don't do what I say, you'll die faster. Hurry up and give the order!" Condensation said impatiently
Cai Hunan had no choice but to jump off the frame and run to the front of the team to deploy one by one according to Condensing Xiang's instructions.
King Wei pondered in his heart for a long time: Cai Hunan, the leader of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, why should he grovel to this woman and obey his words? And I, as a prince, actually want to put my life in the hands of a woman, this is too child's play, right? The more I thought about it, the more I didn't feel it, and after pondering for a long time, I finally couldn't help but say to Condensing Xiang: "Miss Leng? According to this king, it is better to follow Cai Hu to the south to step on the Dragon and Tiger Gate. After all, Longhumen has a large number of people, and it is far away in Lin'an......"
"Shut up! Where to go...... It's up to you to decide now!" Condensation Xiang still did not stop thinking about the next step.
However, her warning of contempt for King Wei made King Wei encounter the contempt he had never suffered in his life. Since he was a child, no one has dared to contradict him, and this woman has just openly lectured herself in front of this crowd. In terms of age, he is ten years older than Condensation Incense. In terms of background, he is a dragon son, and Condensation Incense is just a grass people. In terms of affection, reason, and age, she shouldn't despise herself so much.
King Wei's heart suddenly had a huge gap, and he stood up suddenly in a fit of anger. Unexpectedly, its burly and tall body crashed into the crossbar under the canopy of the carriage. 'Bang' startled the condensation incense's face suddenly changed.
King Wei screamed miserably, and snorted at Condensing Incense: "You, you are so arrogant and rude in front of this king...... ,”
Condensation Xiang slapped his hand on the seat, glared and shouted, "Okay, okay! If you don't want to die, sit down for me!"
King Wei was shocked by this woman's roar, and he didn't know why he was naturally stunned when he saw her deep eyes. Staring at her for a moment, she forgot to penetrate her eyes, and there was a terrifying mystery hidden in the turbulent black water. In his heart, he was just like a tamed beast, obediently sitting down......
Condensing incense said: "You are no longer a prince, so please put away your royal style." If I hadn't saved the lives of your mother and son, I am afraid that you would have been sentenced to be a rebel and thief by now, and you would have been hacked to death with a knife. You're useless to me, kill you...... All I have to do is move my lips and tongue. It's a big person, a little self-aware!"
King Wei thinks about it, and now he is exhausted, and the tiger has fallen into Pingyang. What right do you have to shout at others? So he changed his previous irritability and asked in bewilderment, "Since I am already a useless person, why do you save me?"
Condensing incense had just opened his mouth, and he didn't have to say a few more words, so he clarified: "I saved you because I took a fancy to your position." Even if you are useless, at least you are still a royal bloodline. If you want to compete with the three princes, except for you, I am afraid there is no second choice in this world. And 'you' is also the best excuse for me to meddle in the imperial court and check and balance the Sanshan Gate! As long as you listen to me, I will find a way to let you return to Daming Palace." If you don't listen to me, you can get out of the car immediately, and from now on it has nothing to do with me whether you live or die!"
Condensation's words are already very clear. In her thinking, even if this emperor didn't let King Wei do it, he would never let Long San do it. Because Long San became the Ming Lord, he would naturally strengthen the power of the Three Good Sects, thereby weakening the position of the Dragon and Tiger Sect. Only by supporting the waste of King Wei can we tamper with the Ming Law and better seek benefits for Longhumen.
In this way, unconsciously, the convoy of Longhumen has walked more than forty miles. They stopped in a secluded forest forty miles from the capital. On both sides of the trail is an endless jungle of wild trees......
Chouduyi got out of the car with condensation incense, and King Wei, Cai Hunan, and more than a dozen subordinates of the Dragon and Tiger Gate also unloaded the package. Cai Hunan ordered more than a dozen people to escort Mu Qiuyang, Mu Tong, and Lu Shaoan back to the Temple of Heaven to exchange for Concubine Guan, the mother of King Wei. The rest of the people rushed to Lin'an as planned.
After condensing incense and the others saw the convoy march south, they entered the lush woods and prepared to set up camp......
