Concubine, she rises step by step

Chapter 258 Huo Jiheng begins to exert force

Huo Jiting had just arrived at Beiling border pass.

Then I received the news from Xiao Songxi.

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess wants to see Nalan!" Wan Zheng handed the letter to Huo Jiheng and said calmly.

Tang Yan kept looking at the few people calmly, adjusting his plan in his mind.

Huo Jiheng glanced at the border general Zhou Kun and said, "Where is Nalan?"

Zhou Kun cupped his fists and said, "Go back to the emperor, in the camp!"

Huo Jiheng immediately looked at the tent and said, "Let's go!"

Just when Huo Jiheng opened the tent, he was instantly stunned by the sight in front of him...

He saw Nalan Shankun chained up with iron chains, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair was messy, and his figure was shabby. Just this one look made Huo Jiheng feel his heart was clogged.

Huo Jiheng, who had a cold face, raised his hand slightly and said, "You all can get out!"

Tang Yan's heart, which was already pounding, suddenly rose to his throat, "Your Majesty, you must not do it. What if Nalan Shankun plots evil against you?"

Nalan sealed his mouth at this moment, but looked at Huo Jiheng and others with canthus-like eyes.

Huo Jiheng's eyes were cold, and he turned to look at Tang Yan indifferently, his brows slightly raised, and his tone was very soft, "What? I haven't even come to a conclusion yet. You have already decided that Nalan is a traitor?"

If Tang Yan dared to say anything again, he immediately replied, "I don't dare."

After saying that, he swallowed his dissatisfaction and bowed his head to exit.

The door is closed.

Wan Zheng was standing by at the door, but Tang Yan seemed more nervous about the emperor's safety than anyone else.

"Master Tang, since the emperor has done this, he must have the emperor's thoughts. Just wait here." Although Li Qing had some complaints about Tang Yan, he was quite satisfied with the fact that Tang Yan cared about the emperor. Rejoiced.

Tang Yan smiled with a complex expression, "Thank you, father-in-law."

Li Qing nodded, "Master Tang, you're welcome!"

And the anxiety outside the house spreads to the inside, and it becomes dull.

Seeing Nalan's tragic appearance, Huo Jiheng felt really uncomfortable. Nalan was also a young master from an aristocratic family. He had never suffered such torture. He couldn't help but feel regretful. He walked into Nalan, untied the cloth that sealed his mouth, and untied The handcuffs and anklets were taken off.

"Your Majesty! What crime did Nalan commit?" Nalan looked directly at Huo Jiheng with no fear.

Huo Jiheng was not in a hurry, "Have you ever told me what crime you committed after being here for so long?"

Nalan Shankun was immediately impressed by Huo Jiheng's confident and steady attitude, cupped his fists and said, "I am loyal to the emperor and will never have second thoughts!"

"So what exactly is the riot at the Beiling border?" Huo Jiheng said softly.

Nalan knelt down and looked up at Huo Jiheng, "That day, as soon as I returned to the camp, I heard the shouts of killing from the guards in Beiling. Then, in addition to the guards in Beiling, I also saw a wave of men in black. !”

"Man in black?" Huo Jiheng frowned.

"Yes, those people have extremely high martial arts skills and are not inferior to me. The most important thing is that they seem to know the camp where I am clearly and go straight in with their swords." Nalan is still confused when he thinks about the situation that day.

Huo Jiheng raised his hand to signal him to get up.

"Did they say anything?"

Nalan thought about it carefully and said quietly: "They said I blocked someone's way..."

Huo Jiheng slowly pondered these words in his mind, "That means someone wants to kill you and silence you."

Nalan nodded, "Yes! However, I still have one thing that I don't understand."

Huo Jiheng asked in confusion: "Oh? What happened?" "Luckily, I fell into the water after falling off the cliff, and then was rescued by a farmer. But after I woke up, I was tied up, and I was blindfolded along the way. Keep an eye on it until you are sent here."

Huo Jiheng was a little confused when he heard this, "You mean you were tied up again after you woke up, but they didn't hurt you, but sent you here?"

Nalan said: "Yes, so I am confused here. If there is one group of people, shouldn't we kill them quickly? But if there are two groups of people, the person who saves me seems to be able to guess the whereabouts of the emperor." , has been escorting me to the emperor."

This confused Huo Jiheng, "Did they say anything?"

Nalan thought for a while, "I'll serve you delicious food and drink, but I won't say anything if you ask me anything."

"This is strange..." Huo Jiheng couldn't understand.

“Then now——” Nalan was still not familiar with the current situation.

Huo Jiheng said: "Xiao Songxi said she wanted me to give her an explanation!"

Nalan asked anxiously: "What happened to her? Is she injured?"

Huo Jiheng shook his head, "When someone killed you, they also assassinated Xiao Songxi. Fortunately, she was not seriously injured. However, the person who killed her said that I wanted half of Beiling, so he ordered you to kill Xiao Songxi. .”

Nalan was immediately filled with righteous indignation and said: "What kind of bad tricks are these!"

It's hard to say whether it's bad or not, but in this situation, it can be seen that bad moves also have an effect.

"So, you must explain clearly to Xiao Songxi, otherwise, war will begin!" Huo Jiheng said solemnly to Nalan.

Nalan was angry and took the order: "Please ask the emperor to send his ministers there. I will definitely explain clearly."

Huo Jiheng asked deeply, "How do you explain it? How can Xiao Songxi believe you?"

Nalan was stunned when he was asked this question. How could he explain it?
Huo Jiheng then said quietly: "Let's make a plan and let the people who stir up trouble in the middle stand up."

At this time, Tang Yan could not bear it anymore and returned to his tent.

When he saw the mark on the edge of the tent, his expression paused, "You go in first, I'll go out for a while."

The attendant nodded.

Following the mark to a deserted forest, Tang Yan whistled.

In the shadow of the trees in the forest, I saw a figure swaying and landing steadily.

"The poisonous wolf meets Mr. Tang."

Tang Yan then asked, "Have the arrangements been made?"

Poisonous Wolf bowed and said, "My lord has agreed. As long as there are no problems with Mr. Tang, it doesn't matter if Jiangshan's surname is Tang."

Tang Yan's heart swelled rapidly, "Okay, today we will see the truth! If Xiao Songxi kills Nalan, then how many days can he be left alive? Just kill Xiao Songxi and Nalan directly; But if Xiao Songxi doesn’t kill Nalan, then maybe the emperor is already suspicious, and when the time comes, there’s no need to spare anyone, just kill them all!”

The wind is rustling and the clouds are rushing.

The wind and sand outside the fortress were even stronger, carrying murderous intent and making people suddenly feel sad.

Xiao Songxi stood on horseback and held a gun, with a stubborn look on her face.

Huo Jiheng wears battle clothes and looks unparalleled.

"Huo Jiheng, you must hand over Nalan to me today!" Xiao Songxi looked at Huo Jiheng and said.

Huo Jiheng looked at Xiao Songxi, "Eldest Princess, don't be anxious! Everything must be explained clearly! Nalan can leave it to you, but please also listen carefully to Nalan's explanation of what he discovered that day. Maybe , your target is not just Daikin..."

These words made Tang Yan, who was behind Huo Jiheng, tighten the reins with both fists and feel chills all over. Could it be...
