Chapter 44 Win a Thousand Miles
Sheng Qian immediately waved to take Wei Fuyan and Yu Sikou to a safe place, and then took the people and horses to the place where Fang Cai Xiuji was. King Tuo's eyes fell in the distance and did not take it back for a long time. When he realized Sheng Qian's intention, his face was immediately gloomy. He took out a palm-sized black token from his arms and gave it to the bodyguard beside him and said, "The tiger charm is here, and the whole team of the southwest army is preparing for battle!"
Hearing this, Sheng Qian immediately turned around and stared straight at King Tuo with the same gloomy face and asked, "Your father's Southwest Army is to protect your country. How can you use it to compete for the throne?"
As soon as this word came out, the people around them suddenly calmed down for a moment. I don't know who suddenly shouted, "I want to fight!" King Tuo is going to war!" The crowd suffocated again, and immediately cried and howled. In an instant, they dispersed as birds and beasts.
Wei Fuyan and Yu Sikou couldn't help looking at each other. Yu Sikou gasped, and Wei Fuyan couldn't help but be nervous.
This dispersion, the confrontation between the two sides is particularly obvious. King Tuo stood with his hands on the guillove, kneeling next to the guard who took over the tiger charm. The leader on the opposite side is Sheng Qian, who swept away the childishness of the past, and behind him are four attendants with knives.
"Third brother, our two brothers have not been very close, but I, Lao Jiu, respect you as a general who loves the people and a hero who defends the country! I didn't expect that one day you will face the people of your own country with your skills! I really can't afford the title of prince, let alone be the king of a country!"
King Tuo waved his hand to the bodyguard to leave with the tiger charm, and then sneered motionlessly, "If it hadn't been for my father's bias, I wouldn't have been defeated here!" There are no outsiders here. Why don't you tell me what happened to the imperial edict just now? How on earth can the father, who has been poisoned and illusion, escort such an imperial edict for Lao Si, who is thousands of miles away? Do you want to talk about whether it's me or his fourth injustice?
Sheng Qian couldn't see what others said about Zhou Huaiyi. Hearing what King Tuo said, he looked even worse. He immediately said rudely, "There are gods three feet up. All kinds of good causes will naturally get good results. You and Chai Guifei deserve it today!" In those years, my mother's concubine was not good at fighting in the harem, and she never asked for anything from her father. The garden she lived in was not even bigger than Chai's peony garden, but you can't tolerate such undisputed people! If it hadn't been for the fact that Chai Guifei killed my mother, and you and Chai Guifei lured my brother into the depths of the jungle and almost fed the wolf, how could there be all this now? You all suffer for yourselves!"
King Tuo immediately lost his composure and gritted his teeth and asked, "What happened in the palace? Where's my mother?"
Wei Fuyan was also a little confused. The appearance of Yu Sikou clearly escaped from the palace, so now the king of Tuo should have an advantage in the palace. Why did Sheng Qian say that King Tuo suffered by himself, as if King Tuo had been completely defeated now?
Sheng Qian raised his face and said contemptuously, "I won't be as cruel as you! My people have never touched a hair of Chai Guifei! However, she didn't live long. Her father's legacy was clearly written in black and white, and the queen, Princess Chai and Concubine Tong were buried together!"
Yu Sikou suddenly burst into tears and couldn't help whispering, "Aunt...Aunt..."
King Tuo was sluggish for a moment. Wei Fuyan thought he was going to rush back to the palace immediately, but he smiled clearly and said, "Fate is fate! All right, let's explain it to me in detail now! After all, they are brothers, let each other understand before the war!"
Yu Sikou got up laboriously and said, "Ninth Prince... Sikou has something to ask for! The ninth prince asked the silk buckle to talk about this matter! Sikou promised him, and he promised Huai Wang... Sikou can't save him, but also wants to let him go at ease... Please beg the ninth prince!"
Wei Fuyan looked at the blue-green coat on Yu Sikou's body for a moment of sadness. She has always sent Men Qingsong to contact the Yu family and Tong Fei, but whether it is the Yu family or Tong Fei, almost all of them are Yu Sikou, and she doesn't know when the two secretly fell in love. She is also half the master of Men Qingsong. She usually has a close relationship with Men Qingsong. Now that Men Qingsong is no longer there, you can imagine the sadness in Wei Fuyan's heart.
Thanks to Men Qingsong and Yu Sikou, Sheng Qian's heart is full of gratitude. Therefore, after being stunned, he immediately nodded solemnly.
Wei Fuyan Fuyu pulled forward, and the two hidden guards who did not know when they approached immediately stopped between Wei Fuyan and King Tuo to beware of the sneak attack of King Tuo. After standing, Yu Sikou opened his mouth with a difficult time:
"When I was 13 years old, I went out of the city to play. Unfortunately, I got lost in the forest and almost became a wild wolf. Fortunately, I got a life after being rescued by King Huai. Since then, I have vowed not to marry Huaiwang. My aunt Tong Fei deliberately promoted it after learning about this. However, Luohua deliberately and ruthlessly, Huaiwang will never turn a blind eye to my thoughts.
"One day this year, my aunt found that the emperor's dragon body was getting worse and worse, and there were almost no days left. My aunt knew the emperor and knew that the emperor was most afraid of doing politics in the harem, so she would definitely let several powerful favorite concubines be buried with her. Although my father is full of experience, he doesn't know how to be an official. If my aunt is not here, it will be difficult for our family to have today's glory again. My aunt pityed me for losing my mother since I was a child, and there was no brother's help, so she decided to join hands with King Huai, which naturally allowed me to enter the palace.
"Did Chai Guifei have expected that my aunt would join hands with Huai Wang? I actually used the magic of witchcraft on my aunt, which made it difficult for my aunt to serve in front of me, but after all, my aunt is the most favored person, and you can't help but underestimate this 'most'! My aunt deliberately provoked Princess Chai and the one-sided concubine repeatedly, and finally got the antidote to the illusion! Didn't you expect it? Hahaha..."
"I always thought that your king's final goal should be King Huai, so I sent the antidote to King Huai early. At that time, my aunt forgot to tell King Huai the effect of this medicine because she was in a poisonous spirit many times. Until today, Hu asked Qing Song to take this medicine and come to me! It's really an endless road. You apply illusions to the emperor, and we happen to have an antidote to illusions! After unlocking the illusion, the emperor ordered Grandpa Wang to take out this long-made imperial edict and let me bring it. Your Highness Tuo, do you understand now?"
At this time, King Tuo's people and horses have gathered around this small guilloma.
King Tuo's smile became deeper and deeper, and his eyes staring at Sheng Qian became darker and darker. Sheng Qian said loudly without hesitation, "Brother, if it hadn't been for Chai Guifei's bullying too much, it would have been difficult for Tong Fei to have such a good opportunity. Do you understand now? If you hadn't bullied people too much, my brother and I would have nothing to do with it!"
"I'm not interested in the story of Tong Fei and Miss Yu. What I'm interested in is that when did my clever brother become so bold and dare to confront me so fearlessly?"
Sheng Qian's face changed slightly, but he returned to normal in a blink of an eye.
"Third brother, everyone will grow up. My brother has always taken care of me, and I also hope that one day I will protect him. In fact, I would rather be protected by my brother all my life than be a fool in your eyes, but there is nothing I can do. People will be forced to grow up. Third brother, are you going to war now? Hufu transferred troops, and the whole southwest army was sent by you. Do you want to sacrifice the whole people of Luodu to help you ascend the throne?
King Tuo did not answer. He stood proudly on the high platform of beheading, and his eyes seemed to fall on the place where Fang Caixiuji stood again. His whole body was full of lonely arrogance, and Wei Fuyan suddenly felt that he was very pitiful. Behind her were Zhou Huaiyi, flowers, Lu Zhong, Sheng Qian, Tong Fei and Yu Sikou, but King Tuo had nothing else but the southwest army - even Xiuji turned his back on him.
"The third brother has been sending someone to monitor my brother. I don't know that my father once sent a calligraphy and painting to my brother, right?"
Wei Fuyan suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing. The emperor sent Eunuch Wang to send a very strange calligraphy and painting to Huaiwang's mansion. There was a unique set of words on the rice paper, no painting, no inscription, no seal, and looked strange.
Sheng Qian continued: "Third brother, your father's love for my brother is in his eyes. Haven't you thought that my brother and I are the same mother's concubine. The father always feels ashamed of my brother because of the death of his mother's concubine. Won't he also feel ashamed of me?"
King Tuo's face showed a trace of confusion.
Sheng Qian nodded and said, "I finally know why you failed. Third brother, you are my opponent, but you don't know my brother until now. The fourth sister-in-law is still in the city. How can my brother leave her hand alone? I might as well tell you that I am not afraid of your southwest army at all, because there is an imperial edict left by my father in that word. The ink on the surface of the water splashed on the paper will fade, and there will be a royal pen book. My father left the military power of the whole northwest army, the southeast army and the forbidden army of Li except the Southwest Army, and my brother left it to me.
Sheng Qian suddenly raised his horse whip and only heard his footsteps surging like a tide. People and horses were like black clouds crushing the city. In a blink of an eye, soldiers and horses were spread from the distant city wall to the nearby roof. On the contrary, the soldiers and horses who besieged the guilloion were surrounded by dozens of times more people and horses.
"Come on, send Miss Yu to Huaiwang Mansion to recover from her injury. As for the fourth sister-in-law... Fourth sister-in-law, if you are all right, can you come to the palace with me? Princess Chai killed Concubine Tong and was killed by Grandpa Wang with wine, but the empress pulled the prince to usurp the throne. When I left the palace, the colorful girl Yao was stopping her with all her strength, and I don't know what happened now.
Wei Fuyan nodded, withdrew his eyes from King Tuo, and kowtowed three heads respectfully to Yu Sikou in public. When she kowtowed and wanted to leave with Sheng Qian, she heard Yu Sikou choke and say, "The body of Qingsong... I'm afraid of being trampled, so I hid under the table in the imperial study. Please help me bring him back..."
"Okay, I promise I will bring him back to see you." Wei Fuyan couldn't bear it. He hurriedly hugged Yu Sikou and sat on Sheng Qian's horse. Sheng Qian first ordered his subordinates to take care of Yu Sikou, and there was no lack of words to stare at Yu Sikou to beware of her suicide.
Wei Fuyan's eyes kept looking at King Tuo. King Tuo seemed to be standing in a stone statue without any sadness and joy. Sheng Qian still said after looking at it for a long time; "And, third brother. My brother and I did all this today to protect ourselves, because you have always mistakenly believed that my brother is your opponent. In fact, after our mother's death, our father spoiled us very much. Since my brother doesn't want to be the emperor, his father will naturally not force him. However, I advise you not to go to war, because a long time ago, we got the defense map of Luodu City from Yu Shilang. Now all the places you can think of are our people. You really have no chance of winning.
Tuo Wangyao glanced at the solid wall in front of him and suddenly smiled faintly: "Lao Siguo is really planning a strategy, winning thousands of miles, and joined hands with his father to make this game watertight. This time, he can finally get rid of his identity as King Huai, which is also a wish!"
Sheng Qian was happy to be praised by others. He grinned and picked up his horse's reed and said, "There is also the third brother. My brother asked me to pass on a sentence to you: If there is brotherhood in the afterlife, he will be your brother! Drive!"
