Chapter 816 Su Jiu, That's Her Fate

Xiao Tingchen always smiled.

He said softly: "I still remember the last time we met in Chang'an, you were still an ignorant young man. But in just half a year, you have become the overlord of the Northwest, and even tried to invade the Central Plains in vain. It's just that the overlord is easy to be, but the emperor of the world is not. Well done."

Jin Shixing had no expression on his face, "You have to try it to know whether it's good or not. There is a tower in the City Lord's Mansion, which overlooks the surrounding scenery of Boyuan City. It just so happens that you and I haven't had a drink together for a long time, why don't we go up to the heights and eat wine together? Tell my brother to see the demeanor of my Beiliang iron cavalry."

Xiao Tingchen followed him to the tower.

The roof is spacious, and a beautiful woman has set up a table of delicious food and wine.

The two sat cross-legged on the futon, and Jin Shixing pointed to the northwest, "Brother, did you see that, that is the camp where our Beiliang Iron Cavalry is stationed. As long as Gu gives an order, your [-] reckless army will be destroyed in an instant."

Xiao Tingchen was noncommittal.

Jin Shixing glanced at him, and said in a low voice: "As long as my brother handed over Su Runmo, Gu is willing to let you leave safely. Gu also knows how hostile those people in Chang'an are towards you. As long as my brother helps Gu pacify Daqi, Gu will How about making you the king of Daqi? My brother is a person who reads the books of sages and sages, and he knows that "a good bird chooses a tree to live in." I have millions of cavalry in Beiliang, and Daqi is no match for Beiliang at all. , Surrender is the best option."

Xiao Tingchen drank two cups of wine unhurriedly.

He put down the wine glass and pointed to the east, "What do you see?"

Jinshi woke up and looked around.

On the eastern horizon, billows of dust and smoke rose from the ground.

Su Runmo led one hundred thousand troops from Liangzhou, and they are on their way!

Jin Shixing frowned suddenly.

Xiao Tingchen ate the wine calmly, "You calculated that someone would break the covenant, and ambushed 12 troops near Boyuan in advance, and I may not fail to figure out your plan. Beiliang's [-] cavalry, against me Daqi's [-] troops , Guess who wins and who loses?"

Jin Shixing played with the wine cup, but said nothing.

Feeling irritated, he ordered coldly, "Go and bring the princess."

Whenever he can't control his emotions, he is used to hugging Xu Nuanyue.

Smelling that girl's unique sweet fragrance, feeling the softness of that girl nestling in his arms, he will feel a sense of solidity and security.

Xu Nuanyue is like his medicine.

The maidservant who went to find Xu Nuanyue came back quickly, and reported the incident in the wing room in shock.

"Run away?!" Jin Shixing said coldly.

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's..." The servant girl trembled, "The servant girl asked the guards in the mansion, and they said that there were indeed two maidservants who left the city lord's mansion and have not returned yet."

"boom!"

Jin Shixing squeezed the wine cup in his hand flat!

Xiao Tingchen smiled lowly, "Tsk, the woman ran away?"

Jin Shixing glanced at him, the gloating in the man's peach blossom eyes barely concealed.

He said lightly: "My woman eloped with your woman, what are you happy about?"

Xiao Tingchen: ...

Thinking about it, it seems to make sense.

Jin Shixing said in a deep voice: "Although Beiliang only has [-] soldiers and horses stationed in Boyuan City, they are not afraid of a single battle. If you don't want Boyuan City's people to be devastated and corpses scattered everywhere, then hand over Xu Nuanyue to Gu."

"It was my woman who took Xu Nuanyue away, not me. I have no right to comment on what she is going to do." Xiao Tingchen smiled, "What's more, the people of Beiliang are not afraid to fight, and I, Daqi, are also not afraid to fight. "

Jin Shixing's teeth itch with hatred.

Outside Boyuan City, the two armies confront each other.

However, without the order of the coach, no one dared to go to war rashly.

Juan'er rode a pony to find Su Runmo's big tent, and saw the man studying the sand table map.

She held up a peach blossom branch, "Mr. Su, will this battle be fought or not?"

"It's hard to say..." Su Runmo rested his chin, "Privately, I don't want to fight. There are no tactics, no ambushes, no conspiracy, and a war won by brute force is really boring. If you fight hard, you can only fight." I can kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, for me, winning is no different from losing.”

Judgment nodded.

She grabbed the peach blossom branch, her eyes rolled around.

After a while, she said with a crooked smile, "Then I'll go find Sister Su!"

Su Runmo nodded, not paying attention to her words.

Pan'er rode a pony and galloped along the post road, and finally caught up with Su Jiu and Xu Nuanyue at dusk.

Because of the silver chain on Xu Nuanyue's feet, she couldn't ride a horse, but could only take a carriage.

Because of this, the speed at which she and Su Jiu escaped was greatly reduced.

Juan'er said crisply: "Sister Su, Sister Su! Wait for me!"

Su Jiu poked his head out of the car window and saw that it was her, so he signaled the driver to stop.

She got out of the car, "Pan'er, are you going back to Liangzhou with us?"

Judgment nodded.

Her voice was childish: "Sister Su, I heard that the princess of Beiliang has disappeared, and now Boyuan City is in chaos. Beiliang's 12 cavalry and Daqi's [-] soldiers are in a stalemate. As far as I know, the king of Beiliang is furious. The whole city is searching for his concubine, if he can't find him again, I'm afraid Da Qi will be angered, and the war will officially begin! The king of Beiliang is like a lunatic, he doesn't care about injuring eight hundred enemies and one thousand, it's terrifying!"

Su Jiu was stunned.

In the carriage, Xu Nuanyue frowned, her hands clenched into fists unconsciously.

She closed her eyes and got out of the carriage suddenly.

She held Su Jiu's hand, "Susu, will you send me back?"

Su Jiu was unwilling.

Xu Nuanyue looked in the direction of Liangzhou City.

That quaint frontier city, hidden in the distant twilight, is beyond reach.

She knew from the time she married Beiliang that there would be a land she would never return to.

Going back or something is just wishful thinking after all.

She hugged Su Jiu tenderly, "Susu, send me back. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Boyuan City, and it is not a place where war should take place. Even if there is a war between Beiliang and Daqi sooner or later, it shouldn't be." In Boyuan City. I have been stupid since I was young, and I can't do anything well, but I am willing to go back to Jin Shixing for the sake of those common people."

Su Jiu's nose turned sour.

The sun sinks in the sky.

The smoky purple clouds stretch across the sky, and above the wind and sand in the Gobi desert, it is absolutely beautiful.

Xu Nuanyue took a last look in the direction of Liangzhou, and stepped into the carriage without hesitation.

The yellow brick post road meanders to Boyuan City.

In the carriage, Xu Nuanyue leaned gently on Su Jiu's shoulder.

The four little hands held each other tightly, and they knew very well that in this life, they might never have the chance to talk at night by candlelight, or wander around the old Jinling courtyard hand in hand...

Pan'er was riding a horse with an innocent and pure smile.

She tilted her head and hummed a folk song from Beiliang, which was desolate and beautiful, but also revealed a bit of weird joy.

Xu Nuanyue's return made Jin Shixing feel like a treasure.

When he heard the news, he even ran out of the city lord's mansion regardless of his identity, and went all the way to meet the carriage.

He hugged Xu Nuanyue tightly, wishing to rub this girl into his flesh and blood.

Su Jiu stood beside the carriage, wanting to hug Xu Nuanyue again, but Xiao Tingchen hugged her slender waist.

He said softly, "It's time to go back."

"But Nuan Yue—"

"Su Jiu, that is her destiny."

In front of the City Lord's Mansion, the lantern flickered lightly.

The melancholy red light bloomed in the hazy cold night, like blood all over the ground.
