Chapter 183 Goodbye relatives, farewell is imminent
The man stood up, ordered everyone around him to retreat outside the tent, and said to the maid: "Kill King Lanling, and then blame Xie Zhen!
It’s still up to you to do this! "
The maid was a little puzzled: "May I ask why the plan was changed? The secret letter I received said to kill Xie Zhen to stop this peace negotiation!"
The man gave the maid a cold look and said: "What I said is also what the master meant. You don't have to ask too many questions, just do it!"
"yes!"
The maid retreated hesitantly.
As soon as the maid left, the man called another maid, Ah Yan, to come in, played with a wine glass in his hand and said:
"Do you know why I do this?"
"The gentleman is far-sighted, but I can't guess what he means!"
"About the peace talks, Xie Zhen and Governor Wei must have reached an agreement, and the matter cannot be changed. If the life of King Lanling can be spared, the Qi State will lose a strong general, and the leader of the Qi State is not wary and cowardly. , Presumably he will not retaliate against our Zhou Kingdom because of a prince. What’s more, he doesn’t care at all. Didn’t he also hear that the king is still coveting the beauty of Princess Lanling? "
"Indeed!"
"If we blame Xie Zhen later, this talented man's reputation will plummet, and he will even become an imperial prisoner of Qi State, with no place to live. When that happens, we will bring him to Zhou State, That can be regarded as a talent for our king of Zhou!"
When the man said this, he added even more proudly:
“This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone!”
Ah Yan was so enlightened that he frowned and asked, "Then why didn't Mr. Lang want to tell the female envoy just now?"
"This Anu, she is a craftsman of the Qi State, and she has her own master who she is loyal to. We can only be considered allies when we have the same goal as her master, so this person can be used, but not trusted! "
"I see, Lang Jun, you are more thoughtful!"
After Ah Yan finished flattering, he smiled brightly, and the man smiled even more proudly. He took the female envoy into his arms and drank the freshly brewed green ant wine together!
……
After the maid changed into night clothes, she took advantage of the darkness to sneak into the tent of King Lanling and Xie Zhen. When she saw that the two people on the couch were already asleep, she immediately pulled out a She was about to stab Gao Changgong with the dagger, when suddenly she felt the air around her freeze, her spine went cold, and an extremely cold sword pressed against her neck.
The maidservant froze, and her heart suddenly fell into the ice cellar!
"Who came up with such a stupid idea and sent a fool like you to design an assassination?"
Following a sneer from behind, a rush of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the camp, and several soldiers actually surrounded the camp!
At this time, Prince Lanling and Xiao Jinyu also sat up from the couch.
The maid saw that the two men were clear and clear, and there was nothing strange about them, so she immediately understood that she had fallen into a trap.
"So you..."
"Yes, we have nothing to do. We are just trying to lure the snake out of its hole!"
Xiao Jinyu got off the bed and was about to walk in front of the maid. Gao Changgong grabbed her, stopped in front of her, knocked a dagger out of the maid's hand, and asked Gao Yanzong to pull the scarf off her face.
Seeing the face of the maid next to Yu Wenya, Xiao Jinyu said: "It is indeed you!"
"Tell me, who sent you here?"
At this time, Wei Xiaokuan also led people into the camp, including Yin Zhenggong and Yu Wenya.
"Are you the craftsman?"
Wei Xiaokuan was also very surprised to see the maid wearing night clothes revealing her true appearance. He looked at Yu Wenya and asked, "Isn't this the maid next to the Fifth Lady?"
Yu Wenya was a little confused and couldn't figure out the situation. It was clear that the maid had told her half an hour ago that she should wait a little longer until King Lanling's medicine took effect, and then he would bring her to the tent. The maid would come first to explore the situation. By the way, get that Xie Zhen outside the camp!
But what’s going on now?
"Anu, why are you so careful? You didn't come here..." She did not dare to say the next words, but she immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and explained to Wei Xiaokuan, "Captain, this matter has nothing to do with me. "Although she is my maid, I didn't ask her to kill anyone!"
"Anu, tell me what's going on, tell me clearly!"
The maidservant shed tears like rain, and said helplessly and bitterly: "Fifth lady, I'm sorry, actually I am from Qi, my family is in Qi, someone took my family hostage, and asked me to come to Zhou Guoyuwen Everything is done carefully, and today's assassination of Prince Lanling is the last thing she wants me to do. If it is done, my family will be released immediately. I...I have no choice but to..."
"you--"
Yu Wenya was so angry that he stamped his feet, and then asked strangely: "According to what you said, you are from Qi, so why did you kill King Lanling? Does your master's family have a grudge against King Lanling?"
The maid shook her head: "I don't know that!"
"Who is your master?" Gao Yanzong also asked angrily.
The maidservant's eyes suddenly showed fear:
"No, I can't say it. If I say it, she will definitely not let my family go..."
After saying that, his heart skipped a beat, as if he wanted to wipe his neck, Ling Ye sheathed his sword in time and knocked the maid unconscious.
Yu Wenya looked at the maid who was lying softly on the ground, her eyes still a little straight, and suddenly she heard "Xie Zhen" say in her ears:
"Ms. Yuwen, since this maid is a spy sent by Qi State, then we want to bring her back to Qi State. Doesn't Madam Yuwen have any objections?"
"No objection! Absolutely no objection! How dare I stay with such a person? Since you all want it, just take him away!"
Xiao Jinyu smiled and turned to Wei Xiaokuan: "Today, I would also like to thank Governor Wei for coming to witness this and accompanying us in this play!"
Wei Xiaokuan could only feel lucky at the moment. If the assassination of the maid was successful and King Lanling really died in his military camp, then for him, his reputation would be ruined, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries would also be ruined. Yuwen Mamoru is bound to put all the responsibility for this matter on him alone!
Fortunately, Xie Zhen seemed to have the ability to predict events and noticed this in advance, thus avoiding this disaster.
Thinking of this, he also thought of Yuwen Hu's fate mentioned by Xie Zhen during the secret conversation during the day.
He has also heard that there are some capable people and strangers in the world who have mastered mysterious skills. They can predict the good and bad luck of people and predict people's destiny. As for whether it is accurate or not, it depends on the individual's ability. Could it be that Xie Zhen has also learned such mysterious skills?
While he was thinking, Xiao Jinyu continued: "Since the peace negotiation has been completed, we will return to Qi tomorrow!"
Wei Xiaokuan woke up from his deep thoughts and said with a smile: "Okay, then I won't leave any thanks to the envoy and King Lanling!"
As soon as Wei Xiaokuan left, Gao Yanzong asked Gao Changgong and Xiao Jinyu eagerly: "Could this detailed work be planted in the Zhou Kingdom by that woman from Lord Lu? I heard that she controls the largest spy organization in our Qi Kingdom!"
The two were silent for a while, then nodded without hesitation.
Gao Yanzong was so angry that he slashed a sword on the couch, cutting it into two halves!
"This woman! It's not enough to kill my eldest brother. Now she wants to kill my fourth brother! When I return to Qi, I..."
"Yanzong, the more this happens, the more you have to endure. He Shikai and Lu Lingxuan are afraid that they won't be able to find your faults. As long as you make a little mistake, they will exaggerate or even exaggerate it in Gao Zhan's ears. What's more, Or distort the truth!”
She suddenly remembered that Gao Yanzong seemed to have made a straw man of He Shikai because of Gao Xiaowan's death. He would shoot arrows at the straw man every day to vent his hatred for He Shikai. Because of this, He Shikai He found an excuse to whisper in Gao Zhan's ears, saying that the idiot was His Majesty. Gao Zhan believed it without even checking, and immediately summoned Gao Yanzong to the palace and ordered Liu Taozhi to almost beat him to death.
Gao Yanzong glanced at Gao Changgong and listened to him: "Listen to Minister Xie and don't act rashly in the future!"
"Yes, fourth brother, fourth...thank you, Minister!"
"Then this detailed work..."
"Since she has family members in Qi State, she has concerns. This person can still be used!" Xiao Jinyu said.
"Okay! Let's keep her alive!" Gao Yanzong said somewhat unhappily.
It took a long time for the night's storm to subside. After everyone left, Gao Yanzong looked at the two people in front of him and suddenly felt a little sad: "Tomorrow we will return to Qi State, and the fourth brother will also go to Jinyang. We will be separated soon, so you must There are a lot of things I want to say, so I won’t disturb you anymore!” After a pause, he added, “I’ll send some more people to guard outside the camp. It doesn’t matter what you want to do!”
After saying that, he ran out of the camp with a red face and ordered dozens of troops to guard the perimeter outside the camp.
Ling Ye also hid in the darkness with his sword.
Although parting was imminent and they had thousands of words in their hearts, Gao Changgong and Xiao Jinyu seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding that night, neither of them said too many words. Perhaps they were afraid that the other would be worried, so both of them hid their reluctance and worries. Get up, just cuddle up to each other, and enjoy every breath of time together.
When she got up in the morning, Xiao Jinyu put a pill into Gao Changgong's mouth.
Gao Changgong couldn't help but asked curiously: "What is this?"
"It's a medicine that can save your life at a critical moment!" Xiao Jinyu replied, remembering that when they first met, he gave her a pill as a gift, but he didn't take it, so she asked, "The first time I gave you the anti-poison pill, , why didn’t you eat?”
Gao Changgong smiled and said: "I thought at that time, if this medicine is really miraculous, I would leave it to those who need it more. I never thought that it would be used on you later, which is not bad!"
"It's a waste, I don't need it, and it's not easy for me to produce such a pill. It requires a lot of rare medicinal materials and takes a long time." Xiao Jinyu said strangely.
Gao Changgong hugged her tightly and said with great emotion: "Ayu, the most right thing I did in my life was to save you when I first saw you, right?"
Because of the first life-saving grace, she felt grateful and tolerant of him, which gave her the opportunity to save him, get along with each other and understand each other again and again.
"Well, that's right!" Xiao Jinyu replied unceremoniously, "I am a very careless person. I will keep it in my heart if anyone is kind to me. If there is any grudge, I will retaliate. So, fortunately you are Belongs to the former!”
Gao Changgong just smiled.
Laughing and laughing, the two fell silent again.
Xiao Jinyu suddenly said in a deep voice: "Chang Gong, if you encounter Phoenix when you arrive in Jinyang, please help me take care of him!" After saying that, he also stuffed something into Gao Changgong's hand, "Also, please give me this bottle of medicine. Give it to him!"
She was afraid that it would be difficult to repay Phoenix's kindness to her, and she only wished him well in this life!
Gao Changgong could also feel the guilt in her heart and said softly: "That's natural!"
"And..." Xiao Jinyu paused and looked at Gao Changgong with clear and worried eyes, "Protect yourself well!"
After saying that, she covered his lips, taking in each other's warmth.
Let’s go to Jinyang. Winter will soon enter. If there are no big changes in this life, Yu Wenhu will tear up the alliance between Qi and Zhou and send 200,000 troops to Luoyang. At that time, Gao Zhan will ask Gao Changgong to rescue him. Luoyang.
Gao Changgong broke through the formation with 500 horses and rushed to the gate of Jin Yong City. From then on, he became famous in one battle and his reputation rose!
At that time, he will truly be as famous as Duan Shao and Hu Luguang, and he will be invincible in every battle and attack!
Although this was the case in the memory of the original owner's past life, Xiao Jinyu was still worried that things would change in this life, so she repeatedly told Gao Changgong to be careful in everything and put his life first.
…
After the Qi delegation set off from Yubi City, three letters were sent from an inconspicuous tent in Yubi City. One of them flew to Yecheng of Qi State, the second to Chang'an of Zhou State, and the other to Chang'an of Zhou State. Sanbian only reached the nearby Nanyang Fort.
"The incident failed, Xizuo was captured, and the Qi envoy has left Yubi City!"
In Nanyang Fort, a man wearing purple clothes and a beautiful face received the letter from Fei Ge, and immediately delivered the letter to Yu Wenhui, who had already led troops and was stationed in Nanyang Fort.
After Yuwen met, he couldn't help but get angry: "You know a maid can't accomplish anything!"
Immediately he ordered: "Take two hundred cavalry and catch up with Lanling King Gao Changgong!"
"yes!"
Yubi City is only more than 500 miles away from Jinyang, and it goes deep into the east of the river, directly threatening the safety of Jinyang. Therefore, Emperor Shenwu Gao Huancai has always regarded it as a target.
But for the Zhou State, it was a dangerous and dangerous place where Jinyang, the important town of Qi State, could be attacked when advancing, and the Fenhe and Yellow Rivers could be defended when retreating.
It took the Qi delegation three days to get out of Yubi City and approach the border of Jinyang.
The next journey had to be divided into separate lanes. Gao Changgong was extremely reluctant to leave and asked the envoys to stop and take a rest.
But they didn't expect that just after the mission had rested for a while, a scout came to report: "Fifty miles away, there are about 200 cavalry troops approaching here!"
Gao Changgong immediately ordered the more than a hundred cavalrymen he brought to protect Xianbei on full alert to protect Xiao Jinyu and other members of the mission.
Gao Yanzong and Ling Ye also ordered the troops they brought to line up in order.
When the cavalry approached, Xiao Jinyu recognized that the leader of the team was Yu Wenhui, the envoy of Zhou State whom he had met in Chen State.
Yu Wenhui led the army and stopped ten steps away from Gao Changgong's army.
Xiao Jinyu noticed that behind Yu Wenhui there was a "man" wearing purple clothes and a silk hat, but for some reason, he felt very familiar when he saw this man.
Gao Changgong was also very surprised when he saw Yu Wenhui.
"Yuwenhui? What are you doing here?"
Yu Wenhui then smiled and said: "Of course I'm here to kill you! Gao Changgong, I couldn't kill you in Nanchen, so I can do it here, right?"
"You want to kill me here?" A cold smile appeared on the corner of King Lanling's lips, "Just with the team you lead!"
"Gao Changgong, don't be arrogant. I know that you Baibao Xianbei are the strongest ones trained in the battle of hundreds of people. A hundred cavalry can be used as a thousand cavalry, but my team is not a vegetarian!"
Before Gao Changgong could speak, Gao Yanzong couldn't help but shouted: "Yu Wenhui, how dare you come here to intercept our Qi envoy?"
Yu Wenhui then smiled and said: "We don't have to worry about envoy Qi anymore. As long as you die, I will fake the illusion that envoy Qi was attacked by Turks. I can't be blamed for killing the envoy!"
The dead can never tell the truth! "
Gao Yanzong was furious and heard him teasing again, "Gao Changgong, you are willing to leave that stunning beauty of the Southern Dynasty in Yecheng, and you are not afraid that your licentious king of Qi will carry that beauty to his bed, but what he said is Speaking of which, you’ve owned this beauty for a long time, so it’s time to let her go, right?”
Before he finished speaking, he felt a strong wind blowing through his ears, and an arrow shot through the air and pierced his helmet.
"No need to talk nonsense, kill him!"
Gao Changgong rebuked angrily, and then rushed forward with a gun, pointing directly at Yuwenhui. Behind him, the troops of Baibao Xianbei and Yuwenhui soon fought together.
Yu Wenhui did not fight, but called the man in purple beside him: "Li Yan, go, kill Gao Changgong, I will give you a heavy reward!"
"yes!"
The man in purple responded with a yes, and just as he was about to run out, the halberd in his hand suddenly stabbed behind him, piercing Yu Wenhui's chest.
This scene shocked everyone, and Gao Changgong immediately ordered the army to call a truce!
Yu Wenhui looked at the "man in purple" in front of him with wide eyes in astonishment and disbelief. He thought that half a year ago, Li Yan brought hundreds of troops to join him. With this private army as his help, he could Only then did the Yuwen family have a better position than the crown prince Yu Wenxun. It was this staff member he regarded as a confidant who gave him advice time and time again, which allowed his father to hand over more powers to him. Now he is the governor of Puzhou and has taken over the throne. General Zhu Guo.
"Why? Li Yan! Are you also a spy sent by Qi State?"
The man in purple took off the drapery hat on his head, took off the hairpin that bound his hair, poked a drop of bright red blood on his fingertips, and smeared it between his lips.
At this time, Yu Wenhui discovered that his staff member was actually a pretty and heroic woman!
"Sorry, Mr. Yuwen Sanlang, my name is not Li Yan. A stray goose will eventually return home.
My real names are:
Xie, Yu, Xuan!"
