The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 308 Royal Family Transaction
Outside the east gate of Xiujiang Town, soldiers of the Song Army were still cleaning the battlefield.

At this time, someone came slowly.

He came out of the darkness and appeared under the light of Song Jun's torches.

Immediately, Song Jun noticed and asked, "Who is here?"

Li Wangyuan had two knives stuck in his waist, "Princess Dayuan Mingzhu personally guards Li Wangyuan, and begs to see the Emperor of Song Dynasty."

The Song soldiers around were slightly awe-inspiring.

Princess Pearl's personal guard?

Although they didn't know about Princess Mingzhu being captured, they didn't even know who Princess Mingzhu was.But hearing that it was the princess' personal guard, he didn't dare to take it seriously.

Who knows why this guy begged to see the emperor?
These soldiers obviously didn't dare to make up their own minds about this kind of thing.

At that moment, some soldiers ran towards the commander.The commander came over, saw Li Wangyuan, and said: "You wait here, I will arrange someone to report to the emperor."

Li Wangyuan nodded and sat on the floor.

Some soldiers ran towards Xiujiang town.

At this time, Zhao Dongting had just fallen asleep, was dreaming, and was awakened by the report outside.

"Your Majesty, someone outside the town claims to be Princess Mingzhu's personal guard and asks to see her."

Zhao Dongting was a little annoyed that his sleep was disturbed one after another.When my mind cleared up a little, I was a little doubtful again.

He thought that Huang Liangce or the two swordsmen might return to Xiujiang Town to rescue Mingzhu after learning the news of Mingzhu's capture, but he never thought that they would ask for a meeting outside the town openly.

"Go and take him to the Palace Square."

Zhao Dongting gave instructions to the outside, pondered for a while, and then said: "Please invite the Hall Master to come too."

Huang Liangce or the Dual Swordsmen are both extremely powerful in martial arts, Zhao Dongting really didn't dare to deal with them casually.

The guards took orders.

Zhao Dongting put on his clothes and went out, and went to Fuya Square with dozens of offerings.

When he arrived, Le Wuhui had already arrived.

Zhao Dongting walked up to Le Wuhui, and said, "Senior, Princess Mingzhu's personal guards are asking to see you, what do you mean by that?"

Le Wuhui said: "I'm afraid you want to use some conditions in exchange for her to go back?"

"condition?"

Zhao Dongting pondered, "What conditions can they offer?"

It is impossible for this matter to spread to Zhongdu so quickly.But Zhao Dongting didn't think that Monto had any ability to offer conditions.

After all, Monto is just a general under Boyan's command. Does he still dare to make any claims?
Soon, Li Wangyuan was also brought.

Seeing him alone, Zhao Dongting was slightly surprised, and then said: "Hehe, I didn't expect us to meet so soon."

At this time, Li Wangyuan's arm was completely stained red with blood.

But he was really a tough man, although his face was slightly pale, he didn't even frown.

After staring at Zhao Dongting for a few moments, he suddenly cupped his hands and said, "Li Wangyuan has met the Emperor of Song Dynasty."

Zhao Dongting didn't want to make false claims with him, so he said directly: "You came here to redeem your princess? Tell me your price!"

He really didn't think there would be any other reason why Li Wangyuan came here again.

"Do not."

However, Li Wangyuan shook his head and said, "Li is here to see you as a descendant of the Western Xia royal family."

The Western Xia royal family?

Zhao Dongting couldn't help showing surprise, "Are you from the Xixia royal family?"

He knew that Xixia had been subjugated for decades, but he never thought that the double-swordsman would have such an identity.

Li Wangyuan looked neither humble nor overbearing, "I am the grandson of Li Wei, the last emperor of Western Xia."

This made Zhao Dongting even more surprised.

After pondering for a few seconds, he finally said: "You didn't come here to redeem Princess Pearl, why?"

Li Wangyuan looked at the surrounding priests and soldiers.

Zhao Dongting said: "But it's okay to say."

He never thought of giving Li Wangyuan a chance to be alone with himself, who knows what he said is true or not.Being stabbed one after another has already made Zhao Dongting cautious.

Li Wangyuan had no choice but to say: "I want to make a deal with the emperor. The Yuan Dynasty is powerful, and the emperor's army is now surrounded by the Yuan army. This must be clear in the emperor's heart. Li is willing to persuade me, an old minister of Xixia, to come out of Dayuan and help the emperor. , to break the siege of the emperor in the shortest possible time."

Zhao Dongting was not moved when he heard the words, just smiled lightly, "Tell me about your conditions."

Li Wangyuan said: "I just hope that the emperor can take Princess Mingzhu as a pledge and exchange it with Yuan Dynasty for one person."

"Who?"

"Concubine Shu, Li Xiushu."

"Is she also your Western Xia royal family?"

"She's my own sister."

Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "I didn't expect that you still have a younger sister who is a concubine in the Yuan Dynasty. This deal is fine. But, how do I know if you can persuade those old ministers of your Western Xia? You Western Xia have been subjugated for 60 years, right? The original ministers are probably dead, even if they have descendants who still hold power in Ningxia Road, but the Yuan Dynasty is powerful, would they still be willing to take risks for you?"

Li Wangyuan said: "Although I am a hostage in Zhongdu, there are naturally people in my royal family who secretly have contact with those old ministers."

"Row."

Zhao Dongting said: "I have done this business with you. But... what I need is not only you to rescue me, and you may not be able to make it in time. What I need is for you to help Da Song completely beat Boyan and Ye Su'er back. , when the Yuan army is defeated, when will I exchange Princess Mingzhu for your sister, how about it?"

"it is good."

Li Wangyuan agreed succinctly, bowed his hands again, and then walked towards the government office.

When his figure disappeared at the gate of the government office, Le Wuhui said softly: "Your Majesty, can you believe this man's words?"

Zhao Dongting said quietly: "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, anyway, Princess Pearl is still in our hands. How to use it, or how to use it."

He is no longer the former Zhao Dongting who just came to the Song Dynasty. For some things, Zhao Dongting doesn't mind using dishonorable means.

If you want to resist the Yuan Dynasty and revive the Song Dynasty, you have to give up some things.He is not so pedantic as to use any insidious means.

He looked at the government office, and thought about it, at this time, the messenger who was going to Wuzhou to deliver the letter should have run far away, right?

After that night, he was finally able to sleep peacefully.

In the wild, dozens of Song troops are gathering towards Xiujiang Town in various parts of Tengzhou.

Tengzhou is such a big place, and it doesn't take long for the scouts to gallop fast and send a letter.

Zhao Dongting's order was conveyed to each group army headquarters, and each group army sent orders to each division headquarters.Several waves of scouts, there will always be one who can arrive safely.

However, there are also many troops in the Yuan army who are on their way overnight.Their encirclement circle shrunk, obviously trying to completely cut off the road for the Song army to go to Xiujiang town.Especially in the north of Xiujiang Town, most of the Yuan army's military strength converged here, leaving only Monto to restrain the Song army in Xiujiang Town.

Oh, and Song Bitao who was tricked by Yang Fan.

After Song Bitao was beaten back to the camp, Yang Fan did not give him any orders to move.

He is like a dead chess piece placed on the side of Xiujiang Town, keeping it an eyesore.If the Song army sent troops to destroy them, it would obviously be more in line with Yang Fan's wishes.

But Yang Fan probably didn't expect that Zhao Dongting had no intention of killing Song Bitao at all.

Song Bitao's words came for the prosperity of the world, which can be said to have touched Zhao Dongting's heart.

People who can have a heart for the sake of the whole world usually don't have a bad heart.Zhao Dongting was unwilling to kill such a person.

The next day.

Zhao Dongting got up early in the morning, practiced sword intent and swordsmanship, and had breakfast, it was already around eight o'clock.

Le Chan was in his courtyard, wearing a green palace dress, smiling, looking at Zhao Dongting foolishly all the time.The sweetness in those eyes, needless to say.

She had to go back to Baicao Valley, so she felt that the time spent with Zhao Dongting was extremely precious.

No scouts have arrived at the division headquarters yet.

After Zhao Dongting put away his sword, he smiled and said to Le Chan, "Le Chan, do you want to follow me to meet the famous Princess Pearl of the Yuan Dynasty?"

Le Chan nodded with a smile.

It doesn't matter who you meet.The important thing is that she can stay with Zhao Dongting.

It is said that a woman can turn refined steel into tender fingers, but when a woman truly falls in love with a man, is it possible that an iceberg can also be turned into snow?
At this time, Le Chan's face could no longer see the slightest aloofness, and she looked like a happy and sweet little woman.

Seeing the appearance of his eldest daughter at the side, Le Wuhui didn't know what to think of, and shook his head helplessly.

Probably he was thinking in his heart that his daughter might not be saved?
More than ten people surrounded Zhao Dongting and Le Chan and went to the main hall of the government office.

Opening the door of the hall, a trace of light shone from behind them to the hall and left, casting their shadows.

Princess Pearl, who was still tied to the pillar, woke up and screamed hysterically, "You bastard! You actually kept Ben Gong here overnight."

Le Chan was slightly taken aback when she saw the delicate Pearl Princess being tied up on a pillar.

Zhao Dongting, on the other hand, said cheaply, "You're still in good spirits. You're worthy of being a princess who grew up eating delicacies. Well, I can go hungry for a few more days."

This sentence stopped Princess Mingzhu's shouting abruptly.

Hungry or not, only she knows in her heart.She is because I am afraid that Zhao Dongting will starve her for a few more days.

Thinking that she has never experienced the feeling of starvation, this kind of pain in the stomach is more uncomfortable than killing her.
