After the eastern expeditionary army composed of Qing and Western countries won the city of Linjiang, there was no natural danger in the East. Ling Jingxuan issued an order as an Army division of the two armies. Prince Shengqin Wang Hao led 300000 troops to attack the city from the left and right. He and Sikong tamfu broke through from the middle road. Millions of soldiers were divided into three routes, echoing each other from a distance. It seemed that they were in a competition, and they were frantically attacking the city of the East In just four months, they arrived at Jialing City, which was only one step away from Shengjing city. Despite the dissuasion of the royal family and civil and military officials, Qilian city finally decided to drive the army. Although, all those who have eyes know that it is too late, there are only a few cities left in the eastern Kingdom, and the soldiers are only less than 200000.
On the other hand, the number of the eastern expeditionary army was growing. After seeing the flag flying over Jialing City, the troops of three routes quickly gathered together, and hundreds of thousands of majestic divisions came under the city.
"Report, the envoys of the East are here!"
The soldiers are still encampment, and they will not attack for the time being. However, at this time, the envoys of Qilian city have arrived. They are studying how to break the city, how to annihilate the remaining 200000 troops of the enemy, and prevent Qilian city from escaping. At this time, they all raise their eyebrows and raise their heads. At this time, will they send envoys? It's not going to make peace with them, is it? What did you do?
"I want to hear what they want to say."
The old God Sikong Tamarix was sitting on one side, watching the land of the eastern kingdom was almost taken into their arms. Only the last Jialing city and the Shengjing city behind it, as well as several surrounding small cities, were left. Nao was also a little unable to keep calm.
"Bring him in."
Yan Shengrui gave the order directly and sat down with Ling Jingxuan in his arms. Sikong Hao could not help but pick his eyebrows. The generals also found their own chairs to sit down. After a while, three middle-aged men dressed in Chinese responsibilities came in under the leadership of the soldiers. Once they saw their eyes above their heads, they did not dare to be flattered, but they did not dare to be superior. The facts have proved clearly Yes, Dongguo has been defeated miserably in less than a year.
"After the emperor of the west, Prince Sheng, princess, Prince Hao!"
After the soldiers who led them down, the three men took the initiative to greet them. Sikong Tama was as indifferent as ever. Xue Wuyang clubbed his head lazily on the armrest of his chair, and Sikong Hao cocked his legs. His eyes were just evil charm, and he was strict and powerful. However, Ling Jingxuan was habitually indifferent. If you ignore the indifference and estrangement of Shuangdan Fengyan With Feng Han, he seems to be the most gentle and weak person in the audience.
"Say it, what kind of tricks does Qilian city want to do?"
They had already torn their faces. Yan Shengrui was not in the mood to be polite to them. As soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the theme. Facing his awe inspiring tiger eyes, three ministers of the eastern kingdom could not help shrinking their necks. One of them bravely touched out a letter and handed it: "I am the Prime Minister of the eastern Kingdom, Ying Zhanpeng. This is our emperor's personal letter to the princess."
Although it has been known for a long time that Princess Shengqin is the military division of the whole eastern expedition army, they still don't understand how a princess can command the three armies, which deserves Her Majesty's attention and even sends them letters in person.
Hearing the letter to Ling Jingxuan, Yan Shengrui frowns reflexively. Ling Jingxuan stealthily grasps his hand and does not forget to wink at Li Ruhong. Li Ruhong is also shrewd. He takes the letter and hands it to him. Ling Jingxuan opens the letter in front of the three envoys. When he sees the contents clearly, he can't help but draw a sneer on his lips.
"Won the prime minister? Do you know what your emperor wrote in his letter
After handing the letter to Yan Shengrui, Danfeng's narrow eyes slowly turn to them. The focus of her eyes is on Ying Zhanpeng, the leader. Where is Qilian City confident? At this time, you dare to play with him. Do you really think that Dongguo is the same as Dongguo? It's not nice to say that the east country, which only means a few cities, is not as big as their king's manor.
"I don't know!"
Ying Zhanpeng replied truthfully that he did not know. His majesty sealed the letter directly after he had written it, and he never mentioned the contents of the letter to them.
"He's such a good emperor. You're almost sold by him. You're still counting money for him, you know? As soon as you have a little hesitation, my concubine will accept the three of you. Look at the three people who are also from responsible families, they must be loyal to the royal family, right? "
Ling Jingxuan's words seemed to have no clue. They all understood the last question. After all, they understood all the questions. After all, he was the Minister of the eastern kingdom. He still had this brain. Ying Zhanpeng raised his head and looked at him with one hand on his back. He said without any hesitation: "how dare I be unfaithful when I win the Royal favor for generations?"
The status of the winner in the East is the same as that of Zeng family in Qing state and that of weichi family in western country. They are all the families that are at the top all the year round. The difference is that the Zeng family has made great achievements in war, while the winner and weichi family depend on official career!
"Is it? But your emperor doesn't seem to think so. As far as I know, the daughter of prime minister Ying is still the queen today? Look at what your good son-in-law says in his letter
Ironically, Ling Jingxuan throws a look at Sikong Hao, because the letter has already reached his hand.Si Kong Hao was also full of evil spirits. He handed the letter to the bodyguard next to him. The guard held the letter to Ying Zhanpeng, holding a lot of doubts. Ying Zhanpeng opened the letter. When he saw the content of the letter clearly, his hands shaking when he pinched the letter. His majesty actually asked them to die No matter how loyal people are, they can't stand such betrayal from the monarch. They don't come as envoys at all, but the sacrifice that your Majesty gave to Princess Shengqin as a show of sincerity!
The letter fell to the ground lightly, and Ying Zhanpeng closed his eyes with grief. The other two ministers picked up the letter and looked at it. They were not afraid to die. In fact, the United forces of the two countries had already reached this point, and they were ready to die. However, they could not accept his Majesty's practice of betraying their loyalty. Too It's chilling.
"I don't know whether the monarch is important or the people are important in your mind. In my mind, the monarchs and officials are only serving the people. We have a superior status, so we should think about the people everywhere. However, when our army was fighting from Tianmen pass to Jialing City, what I saw was that the generals of the eastern kingdom not only did not withdraw from the people in advance, but also fought After the defeat, I pushed the people out to stop the pursuit of soldiers, and I ran away in the same panic as GUI Sun Tzu. I am not a great person, but I can't do such things as a pig or a dog. The death of the east country has been doomed. If you have a little conscience, you should not resist any more. Instead, you should surrender with the king's head to avoid the next massacre. Maybe my concubine and the empress of the Western kingdom will not let go You, but your family members, as long as they are not involved in political affairs, can mostly save their lives. My wife was born as a farmer, and she would not pay attention to the matter of filling them as slaves or military prostitutes. The most important thing is to strip them of their wealth and make them civilians. The prime minister should be smart and know how to choose. "
Since qiliancheng wants to play, he doesn't mind playing with him at last. However, he has a lot of dreams at night, so he'd better add an insurance. Although there are not many soldiers in Qilian City, and he is doomed to fail, he has not forgotten that there are a group of Royal shadow guards with high martial arts around him. If he lets those people sneak in, how much will he bring them Trouble, and above all, he couldn't let him slip out of the sight of the Royal shadow guards.
"The princess really gave birth to a pair of poisonous tongue, and she is also good at taking advantage of the most vulnerable side of human beings. I admire her very much!"
Ying Zhanpeng didn't give a positive reply, but just clasped hands at him. Everyone was smart. In fact, Princess Shengqin didn't have to let them know the content of the letter, but he did. And with his eloquence, they had no choice at all.
"I'm flattered by the prime minister. I'm not interested in the prey. You go back and tell Qilian city by the way. I promise him."
Knowing that he would do something even if he didn't send him to the head of Qilian City, Ling Jingxuan would not talk nonsense any more, and waved his hand and ordered him to leave.
"Goodbye!"
Ying Zhanpeng did not mean to stay any more. They turned around and were ready to leave.
"Wait!"
Ling Jingxuan suddenly stops them. Ying Zhanpeng looks back in doubt. Something flies in the face. Ying Zhanpeng reaches out to catch it reflexively. Before he can see what it is, Ling Jingxuan's voice rings again: "it's poison made by my imperial concubine. Seeing the blood sealed Marquis, it may be helpful to Prime Minister Chen."
"The princess is not afraid to use it against you?"
Holding the small porcelain bottle in his hand, Ying Zhanpeng asked in a voice. Even if the poison was made by him, he could not have given the antidote to everyone in the army, right? Is he not afraid to become a criminal of the whole eastern expedition? You know, the reputation of the first poison imperial concubine of the Qing state has been spread all over the world. Even a little poison made by him is enough to kill many people, let alone a bottle?
"Since I dare to give it to you, I'm not afraid that you can use it on us. If Prime Minister Ying doesn't want to use it on others, it can be used on yourself and your family when the eastern expedition army broke the city. I promise you will leave this world without any pain."
If they refuse to cooperate, he will no longer have to protect their families. On the day of the collapse of the city, he will not take his family with him to commit suicide. When those people fall into their hands, the method of death will be greatly different. This is also a threat in disguise.
"Goodbye!"
With a puff on his face, Ying Zhanpeng turned and took a big stride away. Xue Wuyang turned away and said, "you are too kind to them. Return the poison to him. If you want me to say, you'd better kill them directly. In any case, they are also given to you by Qilian city."
"You think it's too simple."
Ling Jingxuan glanced at him faintly, took the tea cup which Yan Shengrui handed him, sipped it gently, and then continued: "only we both know about the letter. It is known to all that the two armies don't kill envoys. If we really kill Ying Zhanpeng and others, we will undoubtedly ignite the hatred between the remaining soldiers and Baixin. This kind of thing can't be easily explained If we don't destroy the city after we break the city, otherwise the two * * teams will inevitably suffer a defeat. Qi Liancheng is right about this point and will use them to gamble with win Zhanpeng. Whether we kill or not, it has no effect on him. I'm not stupid to know that it's a pit or jump in it! ""I said," don't swearing around the corner, will you? I'm not that I don't know Qilian city's despicable, just don't like trouble, as for let you say is a fool? "
Hearing his last teasing, Xue Wuyang resolutely blew his hair. Many people present, including sikongtama brothers, couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker, while Ling Jingxuan himself was the big Lama's smile. It was not that he thought the atmosphere was too heavy and wanted to ease them up!
