Slave to Empress: One Night Bride - C524 cheering
Yanjing had convened for the first time since spring.
At the meeting, other than the establishment of the puppet emperor to kidnap Zhao Deji, the most intense discussion was about the relocation of the Yanjing s. This suggestion was made by Jin Wushu. In his early years, Jin Wushu was an intense main fighting faction. Regardless of whether it was the early stage of the war against Song Jin or the later stage of Song Jin’s negotiation, Jin Wushu’s great achievement naturally gave him authority to speak up. Over the past year, he had practically spared no effort in carrying out all kinds of Han Dynasty movements, allowing the Jinguo to use Song Liao’s bureaucracy, books, and even abolish the slave system, turning the large amount of nomadic animals in the Jinguo into labour force, and cultivate a large amount of fertile land.
The Joint Stinger never had any decision, but his little brother, Wan Yanhailing, was unhappy. This person was his stepfather, Zong Gan’s eldest son, and was very close to He Wei. Under Jin Wushu’s command, he gradually rose to power, and after reaching the power of kickboxing, he was promoted quickly, with the momentum of a youngster.
Although Wan Yanhailing did not dare to openly oppose Jin Wushu, he had long since disliked him and had immediately raised a strong objection to moving to a Yanjing.
“Everyone is aware of the Fourth Prince’s outstanding achievements, but the Northeast Imperial Fortress is the place where our great wealth flourishes. How can we just abandon our ancestors’ businesses so easily?”
Jin Wushu did not have any good impression of this nephew who had revealed such an extraordinary talent, but he still patiently stated his advantages and disadvantages. With the gentle climate of the Yanjing, the lush aquatic plants, and the advantageous geographical location, if they went south to the Central Plains, repelled from north to north, they could attack and retreat, how could they not win against the remote Shang Jing?
Although he was inclined towards brothers, he was afraid of Fourth Prince and did not want to offend anyone. Thus, he refused to ride and hunt, allowing Wan Yanhailing to accompany him, all he said was for Fourth Uncle to have the authority to punish him.
Returning to the Fourth Prince Palace, Wu Qimai immediately said: “Fourth Prince, Wan Yanhailing is too rude, what an insolent child.”
This was the first time Jin Wushu saw the other face of his nephew. He faintly realized that not only was this Hai Ling being arrogant, he was also extremely scheming and sinister, afraid that he would become a disaster in the future.
At this time, a scout stepped forward to report: “Fourth Prince, Qin Gui has already stationed himself fifty kilometers away from open seal.”
“How many?”
“Yang Yizhong, one hundred thousand people protect you.”
“Alright, immediately send someone to deliver a letter and invite him to a secret meeting.”
The spy revealed a troubled expression, “Fourth Prince, Qin Gui has repeatedly asked for the whereabouts of his wife.”
Jin Wushu secretly cursed “old thief”. This old thief had obviously already become aware of the danger, it truly wasn’t easy for him to obey his orders.
“Madam Wang is very good. She told Qin Gui not to worry, I will naturally give her a satisfactory answer.”
As for Zha He, after going into Stealth mode and crossing the river, he did not dare stay any longer and rushed straight to savage tribe. Although the distance was not more than a hundred li, this was a completely different world. Spring was warming and flowers were blooming. The barbarians were harvesting land, and it was a bustling scene.
Zha He went straight to the King Qin’s Imperial Palace, but was stopped by two guards.
Panting, he took out the contract stone. “I have an important meeting with the King.”
“The King is not here.”
He anxiously asked, “Where did the King go?”
“He went back to see his son.”
Zha He screamed in shock, King Qin had already left? How is this possible? He couldn’t just go back to see his son, could he?
“No, I don’t believe it. Where is King Qin? I must see him. ”
The two guards exchanged a look. “You are not to be disturbed by idle people. Leave quickly.”
Seeing the two’s expressions, Zha He felt that it was extremely strange. Could it be that the King Qin was in the “Imperial Palace”? He reached out his hand to push them away, “Hurry, I have urgent matters to attend to, I can’t delay any longer.”
“Don’t be rude …”
Zha He was enraged: Are you guys going to report or not?
The two guards took out their blades and slashed at Zha He: “Why aren’t you getting lost?”
Zha He was furious, he immediately rolled on the ground and dodged their attacks, only to hear one of them shouting: “Hurry up and stop, what are you doing?”
Zha He was overjoyed: “Brother An, it’s great that you’re here. I want to see the King.
An Zhigang asked coldly: “What do you have to do? Just tell me. ”
Zha He was startled, when he saw An Zhigang, he thought that they were acquaintances, and did not expect that An Zhigang’s attitude was so cold, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask for help: “We are surrounded by the Fourth Prince, the situation is very critical, I ask the King to send troops over …”
An Zhigang interrupted his words: “Sorry, the King is not here, we can’t help it.”
“Has the King really gone back?” Zha He was extremely suspicious, “Then why didn’t you go with me? An Zhigang, you can do it, but we need your help … ”
An Zhigang’s attitude was even colder: “Zha He, if you say you’re not here, then you’re not. “Hurry up and leave.”
Even in his wildest dreams, Zha He would never have thought that the subordinates of the King Qin would actually reject assistance. He was enraged as well, “Don’t forget, the King Qin had taken the initiative to send people over to ally with us.”
“That’s because my king is reminiscing about old friendships …” An Zhigang smirked, “It’s best for us to be on par with each other. Our forces are strong, what does your Da She Tribe have? To put it nicely, it’s an alliance with all of you. To be honest, it’s just that the King pitied a woman in Madame Yue. We have already given you our weapons and fodder, and we have done our best. What else do you want? ”
“An Zhigang, I want to see the King himself!”
An Zhigang shot him a glance, “Who do you think you are? The King will see you? To be honest, ever since the King gave birth to his son, he had decided to sever all ties with Madame Yue. He still needs to work with Master, and everything he does in the future, needs to be done for the sake of his son.
Zha He was enraged hearing this, but at the same time, he said in disbelief, “An Zhigang, do you think the King Qin is as despicable as you? How could the King Qin be like this? He would never do that! ”
“The King said that we have a lot of enemies now, so we can’t waste a single soldier.”
Zha He slowly came to his senses, “We’ve been surrounded for so long, you should have received the news a long time ago.
An Zhigang laughed sinisterly, declining to comment.
“Could it be that King Qin can’t even save The little boys? The little boys sent me. An Zhigang, I don’t believe that the King Qin is so good to the The little boys … No, An Zhigang, I must meet the King, if he personally tells me that he won’t save you, I will immediately leave and definitely not disturb any of you anymore! ”
An Zhigang lowered his voice, gritted his teeth, and said, “Zha He, don’t cause trouble for the King. It must be known that this was the lord’s territory, not the king’s sea. People have to bow their heads under the eaves, we must obey the Lord here. The Lord has also heard of your siege, he said. This is the test of whether the King shares his heart or not. If the King were to go and save you, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the Lord and cause a rift in the cooperation between the two sides. Moreover, there are so many Golden Army s. If we go, we will be like eggs striking a stone, and our strength will be lost for nothing. Furthermore, the King Qin has never seen his own son before.
“Don’t forget, if we are done for, and you all lose your terrain barriers, the Fourth Prince will find you all very soon. You are his ultimate goal.”
“Zha He, you probably don’t know this, but Jinguo will probably move to the Yanjing already. My lord has already secretly ordered us to give up this area, and the army has already begun to move …”
“You! You actually used us to resist the Golden Army, and took the chance to run away? ”
“Zha He, don’t make it sound so bad. We gave you fodder and weapons a long time ago, so it could be considered as giving you assistance in advance. “You’re lucky to be here today, and there’s still people here. In two days, you won’t even be able to see these barbarians …”
It was only then that Zha He noticed that most of the wild people were collecting, hunting, and loading all sorts of things into their carriages. It was obvious that they were prepared to set off on their journey.
Zha He’s heart grew cold. He had already determined that King Qin had never left this place, because An Zhigang was his personal retainer, and was definitely not Ye Lvdayong’s person. Since he made such a ruckus, even the King Qin did not come out.
“Zha He, why aren’t you going back yet? Maybe you won’t even be able to see the last time with the Madame Yue!”
Like a clap of thunder, Zha He turned and ran. There was no way to save him. If the Golden Army took the opportunity to attack, he would not even be able to see the last of the The little boys.
Smoke. Fire.
On the left side of the river, Golden Army finally found an opening. There was a big tree that had withered away for many years, its trunk extremely dry. At the end of spring, there were several sunny days in succession. The fire took advantage of the wind to burn her house. As the fire spread out, it completely spread through the forest. The smell of sulfur and other fuels mingled with the smell of charred bodies of small animals that had not escaped in time was so strong that it made one want to vomit.
This was the first time in their lives that the barbarians who had lived in the forest for generations had seen a mountain fire on such a large scale. They were shocked to the core.
Hua Rong and Da She were also terrified by the fire, but they did not care about it, and anxiously ordered everyone to calm down, arranging their troops to prepare for the upcoming life and death calamity.
With much difficulty, Da She managed to stabilize the group. With a head full of sweat, he ran over: “Leader, is there any news from Zha He?”
Hua Rong quickly comforted him: “Don’t be anxious, Zha He will definitely bring back reinforcements as soon as possible.”
Da She was not sure: “Will King Qin really help us?”
“Definitely!”
Zha He estimated that he would need at least half a day to return. As long as he could lead reinforcements there, he would have a chance at survival. When Da She saw her unquestioning gaze, he felt as if he had swallowed a pill of relief, and immediately chased his clansmen away.
However, the current situation was such that the only exit was near the river. As the fire got bigger, the moment they got closer to the Flower Lamp River, they were discovered by the Golden Army. They waited idly and immediately surrounded them. Fortunately, there were not many Golden Army s here, so the crowd quickly attacked. Just as they opened a path for the women, children, and children, another group of Golden Army s rushed over.
This time, there were too many Golden Army, and no matter how good the fight was, Ren Ye’s people could not defeat them. In their panic, the women, children, and children could only retreat while wailing.
Hua Rong saw that her side had suffered more and more casualties, yet there was no news of Zha He. She was burning with anxiety, but she never thought that the King Qin would not save her.
