Chapter 457: The Enemy Comes to Attack
The next day, the weather was clear and sunny. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the most luxurious and spacious crystal hall of the royal palace, King Erzen entertained distinguished guests of the dynasty, officials of the kingdom and some of the common people.
The delicacies, the fresh fruits, the exquisite wine and tableware, the handsome king and the beautiful queen, and the beautiful Haixi women singing and dancing are really beautiful.
The ones who have a special feeling are Kusong Jushi and Ah Yi. Kusong monk has not descended the mountain in Huangshan for more than 20 years, and has long been accustomed to the quiet and idle life of the mountain flowing water and cicadas, and feels quite strange and interesting to this colorful and lively lifestyle, and even reminds him of the scene of the Chinese New Year or the marriage of a large family when he was a child. And Ah Yi was bought by Meng Lizhu to train as a killer when she was a child, and then lived alone for many years, always bleak and lonely, and she also felt that this kind of scene was very interesting, and she secretly envied the loving king and queen in her heart, remembering that she was also a beautiful and beautiful little girl back then, with high martial arts, but her sweetheart had other feelings, and she had been lonely for so many years. She was both envious and bitter at this lively scene.
Suddenly, a sturdy Haixi warrior dressed as a guard ran in from outside, he first whispered a few words to Zhu Miao, the minister of state beside the king, Zhu Miao's face changed, and Sha Buying next to him was smiling and looking at the dancing Haixi beauty, I don't know if he remembered the flowers, and there was a little melancholy in his smile. Jiang Zhan had already seen all this, but he was very calm and quiet, and Zhu Miao would definitely inform him in time if there was anything. He took the queen's hand intimately and watched the performance with her.
Zhu Miao and Sha Bu should have whispered a few words, and then they got up and whispered to Jiang Zhan: "Your Majesty, the tanma you sent to Great Xia has returned, and King Jinping has decided to join forces with Northern Yan. ”
Jiang Zhan asked very calmly, "When will the Great Xia army leave?"
Zhu Miao said: "In the early morning of the day after tomorrow." ”
Jiang Zhan nodded: "Prime Minister, the Sword Alliance should have attacked here earlier than the Western Xia army," he looked at the lively scene in the hall: "This gathering is still too late to make it complete, and it will not be too late to arrange it after the girls finish dancing." ”
Zhu Miao bowed and said, "Zhu Miao obeys the order." ”
When the beautiful beauties in light veils finished dancing and left the center of the hall lightly, Jiang Zhan stood up: "Distinguished friends, officials and people of the kingdom, the enemy is about to invade Haixi. Don't lie, Mr. Sha should arrange for everyone to go to a safe place, as for me,"
He drew his sword: "I will fight for Hercy, and I hope you will believe in your king." ”
The queen stood up at once, and the maid beside her hurriedly supported her.
The officials and the people in the temple were noisy for a while, and then they were quiet. Zhu Miao stood up and said in Haixi dialect in a crisp and mellow voice: "Believe in our king, Haixi will definitely be a land of peace and happiness!"
Immediately, the officials and the people all knelt down and said in unison: "Believe in the king, Haixi will be happy and peaceful." ”
Jiang Zhan nodded slightly: "Everyone obey Mr. Sha's arrangement, he will take you to a safe place for temporary shelter." ”
He put the sword back into its scabbard and said to Zhu Miao: "Please discuss the affairs of the friends of the country." ”
In the inner room, Jiang Zhan said: "Seniors and friends, there will only be five of us here, of course, and my Minister of State, Zhu Miao, she is a native of Haixi. There are six of us, and no matter how many members of the Sword Alliance come, we must use this power to compete with them for the Secret Way. ”
Meng Yu said: "If you can resist the Sword Alliance, it is best to destroy them all, and you can't be soft." We can wait another day, my father will definitely find a way, if King Jinping withdraws his army, we can not fall behind. And the Great Xia army did not arrive, and the Northern Yan did not dare to enter the territory of Haixi in one direction. ”
The Lone Crane experienced more storms and dangers, and he muttered: "I really want to see what kind of masters the Sword Alliance is. ”
Kusong Jushi smiled: "I am fighting for my apprentice. ”
He seemed to remember Jiang Zhan's sentence just now: "Fight for Haixi." Jiang Zhan smiled embarrassedly, he hadn't seen his master for many years, and he couldn't imagine that when he was facing the most dangerous situation, it would be the master who came to help him.
Ku Song said with a smile: "You and Meng Yu, when you studied art with me, one was honest and the other was naughty, but they were both smart, and now they are so promising, I am really happy to be a teacher." It's just a pity that your Bingxue smart senior sister Lanzi. In this life, no matter how many calamities there are, the most important thing is to have the courage to overcome them. ”
Meng Yu and Jiang Zhan said together: "The apprentice has remembered the master's teachings!"
After seven years of separation from Master, when we met again, both of them changed from teenagers to young people, and I felt that Master was a lot older, but I didn't treat Master as a strict person who didn't dare to get close to him like I did when I was a child, but now I feel as close as an elder.
Lone Minghe said: "Let's set off as soon as possible, the secret path is four or five miles long, and we have to gather on the side of Beiyan." This side close to Haixi and Daxia is to be guarded by Haixi warriors, and we will have news to send it to us. We will send people to pick it up, but we can't take too many people, because the Sword Alliance will inevitably attack from the direction of Beiyan first. ”
Meng Yu said: "There is a movement on the Beiyan side, Hou Lingshan will notify me, but if you can't seize control of the secret path, a few seniors will block all the people of the Sword Alliance, so that Hou Lingshan and I can bring down the mechanism." ”
Lone Minghe said: "The attack will indeed be launched from Beiyan, and they will rush in so that the people here can't reach the mechanism on Beiyan's side." ”
No one spoke, but their faces were solemn. The inner room was silent for a moment, and Jiang Zhan said in a deep voice: "Let's go." ”
Meng Yu took a closer look at the secret path, the entrance on the Great Xia side was wider than the exit on the Beiyan side, no wonder it was easier to land at this end. However, he didn't know what this mechanism looked like.
According to He Ye'er Salin, this secret path was also discovered by the ancestors of the Woodlands. Because the entrance is deep in the mountains and is blocked by dense tree branches, Beiyan is not close to the root of the mountain, so I don't know. Instead, it was discovered by chance by the ancestors of the Uron people who lived in the mountains. When they entered the cave, they found that the people of Hercynian used this secret path, that is, the lava edge, as a place for amusement and play, and the two sides met in the secret path so accidentally, although the language barrier was different, but they were very friendly in surprise, and since then hundreds of years of friendly exchanges have begun.
Now that the entrance location of the secret path is known to Beiyan, He Ye'er Salin is very angry, this is a major event for the Ulon clan. The rule of the Ulon is that they are not greedy, and they do not associate with the Northern Yan, especially the Northern Yan magnates. Therefore, He Yeer Salin immediately corrected the traitor who had accepted the bribe.
However, the secret of the Secret Path has been revealed, so he must cooperate with Meng Yu to protect the Secret Path as much as possible, and as a last resort, he will drop the mechanism that has not fallen for hundreds of years.
Jiang Zhan arranged Haixi warriors at the entrance of Great Xia, and said to Zhu Miao: "You stay here, I and the others go to the entrance of Beiyan, someone attacks in, you must send a message early." The key is to grab the mechanism, so the enemy on Beiyan's side is stronger, and I have to help. ”
Zhu Miao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I will accompany you, here is the leader of the guards, Shamil, he can complete the task assigned by His Majesty." ”
Jiang Zhan said: "No! The entrance to Haixi is equally important, and your task is also very heavy, this is the king's order, how can you not listen to it!"
Zhu Miao wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say anything. She glanced at Meng Yu wordlessly.
Meng Yu couldn't bear it in his heart, although it was dangerous everywhere, but he couldn't see her, he couldn't be sure: "Zhu Miao, you just guard this side, you must fire an arrow again if something happens, protect yourself." "Meng Yu also knew that if he arrived at the entrance of Beiyan, it was estimated that the palm qi of the battle would be able to cut people to death.
Zhu Miao had no choice but to nod tearfully.
