Chapter 72 Show the national prestige

The team slowly returned to the palace, but there was a small tail behind it, which was the 20-member mission brought by Shi Rong, the envoy of the Great Qi. Shi Rong was capable and different from those Confucian messengers. He always gave people a cold sense of oppression. It seemed that Sima Rui sent Stone Glory this time with a deep purpose.

"What do you think of this stone glory?" Leng Changxi disposed and asked Leng Wu in a low voice at the time of staggering.

Leng Wu thought about it and replied, "The light skill is good, and the long knife makes it amazing, but it is still much worse than that of the general. In time, it may not be able to catch up with the current level of the general."

"That's right," Leng Changxi's judgment is the same as Leng Wu. "A person whose martial arts skills are far inferior to me, why did he react to the poison darts almost at the same time as me? And his distance is farther than mine, that is to say, the reaction and speed he showed are still above me, which is not in line with our judgment just now, and I didn't know that someone was going to assassinate because of the warm reminder, so what about him?

What does the general mean?

Leng Changxi shook his head and continued: "And the five assassins are too incompetent. As a professional assassin, first, they must choose an appropriate time. Now that there is a rebellion in the Yellow Flag Barracks, the emperor's army will definitely be strictly guarded and choose to attack at this time, which is absurd and ignorant. Second, As an assassin, once captured, he will definitely keep his secret, but these assassins were almost easily captured alive and casually let people find out Beidi's tokens. Shouldn't this kind of identity be deliberately hidden when they do it? Leng Changxi squeezed his lips and looked at Qin Yunuan. "Third, it is the murderous atmosphere. I didn't notice the murderous atmosphere that Nuannuan felt at all. On the one hand, Nuannuan's sense of smell is indeed unexpected, but on the other hand, it also means that these five assassins don't want to kill Jing Donghua at all, or their purpose, root This is not Jing Donghua.

"Is the goal of these five people wrong?" Leng Wu touched his head, which was too ridiculous.

"No, these five assassins don't want to kill people at all," Leng Changxi has made a judgment in his heart. "They are just cannon fodder. The third-rate skills and unpopular action plan were simply deliberately arrested, in order to let the emperor relax his vigilance against Shi Glory, and more importantly, they provoked Xixia and Bei Di was already like walking on thin ice. Now, the previous contradiction between Xixia and Daqi has become the contradiction between Xixia and Beidi, but it took the lives of five third-rate masters to get such a good result. Sima Rui has some ideas.

"Then we have to inform the emperor as soon as possible." Leng Wu said anxiously.

Leng Changxi lowered his voice and glanced around as if nothing had happened. He was surrounded by his own people. Qin Yunuan and Man'er listened to Xue and others were protecting him. On the other side, the eunuch in front of the Xixia Palace was eagerly welcoming the 20 Daqi delegation into the palace, as if leading the wolf into the room, which made Leng Wu couldn't help frown. C cluster.

"Don't worry, the emperor must have seen the trick of this stone glory." Leng Changxi's eyebrows spread slightly, "Since ancient times, the envoy has been sent. Generally speaking, we should first welcome the messengers to the palace to salute, and then welcome the whole envoy. The emperor is eager to invite the envoy into the palace at one time. In the eyes of Shi Rong, he will definitely think that the emperor has been tricked and is eager to discuss the matter between Xixia and Beidi, but in fact, The emperor wants to catch them all."

"Really?" Qin Yunuan came forward and looked at the sharp Daqi mission members walking cautiously along the palace road in the distance. He seemed to feel that these people were brewing some big conspiracy in their hearts, and the eunuch in front of the palace was so flattered, as if inviting their ancestors. The face was only facing Jing Donghua. That's when you are so flattering.

Suddenly, Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned. She understood that when the eunuch in front of the hall raised his hand to invite, Qin Yunuan found that the eunuch's arm was a little stiff, and she knew that there was a knife in the sleeve tube.

"Let's go to Xihe Palace to see our mother." Seeing that most of the situation over there had been settled, Leng Changxi took Qin Yunuan's hand and walked directly in the direction of Xihe Palace. Bai Shishi had previously notified them to come back today, but Bai Shishi was still a little surprised when he arrived at Xihe Palace. He leaned over behind Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan with expectation, and his face surged up. A faint disappointment.

"His Royal Highness is busy accompanying the envoys of Daqi in the main hall, and he can't go back to the palace to visit the princess for the time being." Qin Yunuan naturally understands Bai Shishi's feelings for her husband. The two are separated these days. On the one hand, the Yellow Flag's military camp is difficult, and on the other hand, the palace is unpredictable. Although everything has been arranged for a long time, there will always be a sense of life and death, especially Bai Shishi. She and Jing Yuanxiao are not just a relationship of mutual help, but also have their own relationship between them. Affectionate.

Bai Shishi restrained her worries, but asked with some surprise, "Why did the envoys of Daqi suddenly come to Xixia?"

"I guess it was the killer of Si Ma Rui of Daqi who failed to go back in time. Sima Rui also guessed that Xixia's situation was not good and wanted to stop Xixia from sending troops to Daqi."

"Have you met a killer?" Bai Shishi clearly sent a lot of bodyguards to protect Jing Yuanxiao, and also stressed the need to protect Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan, and the Huangqi barracks were heavily guarded. She really didn't expect that there would be killers from Daqi.

"Jing Yuanchu and Sima Rui are originally a dragonfly. What can't they do?" Leng Changxi sneered, "However, now their wishes are going to collapse."

The warm sun shines the golden glazed tiles of the palace. The palace is full of white plum blossoms that Bai Shishi likes. Trees are hidden in the corner, or open in the middle of the yard. Along the way, the plum blossoms are fragrant and the sunset is really warm. Thinking of the bloody wind and rain on the top of the wall in the Yellow Flag Barracks, Qin Yu is warm and cold. Changxi really had a feeling for the rest of his life after the disaster. This feeling was very exciting, but from the perspective of Leng Changxi's heart, he would never want Qin Yunuan experience such a thrill again.

Asked about some other trivialities and details, Bai Shishi led them all the way along a secluded path. For the sake of safety, Bai Shishi secretly took the eldest princess to his palace, and the place where the eldest princess used to live still kept traces of daily food delivery and life. Others seemed that they really didn't know. It turned out that the eldest princess would hide in such a remote yard behind the Xihe Palace.

"According to Mrs. Leng's prescription, I ordered people to wipe the eldest princess's body and stimulate her acupuncture points with potions. A few days ago, the eldest princess could open her eyes. I have visited the eldest princess every day these days. This morning, she also said thank you, Mrs. Leng, you are really a magic doctor."

Qin Yunuan lowered her head and smiled implicitly: "The princess is flattered."

When she walked to the door, the princess was about to let the maid of honor push the door in, but Leng Changxi suddenly heard a strange movement inside. He suddenly kicked open the door, but saw that a masked man in black had tied the eldest princess to himself with sheets and was ready to escape from the window door. Seeing Leng Changxi breaking the door, he was even more He left quickly without returning.

Leng Changxi didn't say anything and chased directly in the direction of the man in black.

Qin Yunu has internal strength and does not have any light skills. He can only tell the cold frost and mandarin ducks around him: "You two, copy from the east side of Xihe Palace and western bread respectively, and you can't let this person go far." Then he ordered Xue and Man'er to say, "You two secretly go to inform the eunuch and the maid of honor, and say that there is a thief in the palace, pass on the order of the crown princess, and close all the palace doors."

When Qin Yunuan calmly ordered, Bai Shishi, who had always supported the overall situation, was dumbfounded. She had always been confident in taking care of the eldest princess. This yard was the quietest yard, and she had been pretending to be the traces of the eldest princess's survival in the palace before. How could anyone find it? Here, she was entrusted to complete the task of protecting Jing Yuanxiao and exposing Jing Yuanchu's mask so perfectly for her, but she couldn't even keep a person.

"How can this happen? It's impossible. It won't be like this." Bai Shishi leaned her back against the door frame, and her body couldn't help sliding down, and her eyes were frightened.

"It's okay," Qin Yunuan quickly pulled up Bai Shishi. "Changxi's light work is unmatched. That man is a heavy burden and can't run very fast. It will be fine."

At the same time, in the main hall of Xixia, a seemingly peaceful but mysterious conversation was unfolding. Xixia's old minister and Jing Donghua sitting on the dragon chair had a serious attitude, while Shi Rong, who led the team of 20 people, held his head high and boldly put forward his ideas and suggestions without humility, and his tone was firm. It doesn't seem to be asking, but asking.

The content is nothing more than wanting to count the shameless behaviors of Beidi, including those past aggressions, especially exaggerating this assassination. Shi Rongrong deserves to be a good lobbyist. If Jing Donghua does not see through Shi Rong's tricks at the beginning, he will definitely be moved by Shi Rong's words.

Shi Rong talked, and Jing Donghua also listened carefully. Just when Shi Rong thought that he had moved Jing Donghua, Jing Donghua waved. A team of maids of honor walked up from outside the hall with a tray in their hands, and a white porcelain teacup was placed in the center of the tray, with a cup of temperature and the cup. The new tea has just been brewed.

"This is Xixia's specialty tea sparrow tongue tea. It takes a lot of time to talk about it. It's better to moisten your throat first and then discuss it."

Shi Rongrong glanced at the tea, and the alertness in his heart couldn't help but improve several degrees.

"You don't need to drink tea. As for what I'm talking about, I hope your emperor can consider it carefully. Beidi bullies people too much. Even if it is far away, he will be killed."

Shi Rong's attitude is tough, as if he wants to lift the table and force himself to do it. In this case, Jing Donghua will not be polite. He turned his head sideways and smiled and said, "Tea must be drunk. Everyone has come from afar. If Xixia hasn't given me a cup of hot tea, won't it be my way to treat guests?"

It was when the two were arguing, and suddenly there was a noise outside. He saw a black man break in with something wrapped in cotton cloth and shook the cotton cloth in his arms, and the person inside fell out. It was none other than the eldest princess.
