Chapter 1720 Xirong spies?

Ah Zhen was about to slap her with a slap.

Xiao Xia hurriedly said: "This guard is actually from the Xirong Kingdom."

"Xi Rong?" Shui Lingyue was slightly surprised, and said, "There are spies from Xi Rong Kingdom in Qidu?"

Xiao Xia said: "It can't be said that they are spies. This guard claimed to be a dead soldier under the former Southern Chu Prime Minister Pei Sheng. Southern Chu was destroyed by the Northern Qi Dynasty. Pei Sheng took the Southern Chu Emperor Chu Feng to Xirong. Pei Sheng was in Xirong He was in a difficult situation, he heard that Chu Yi had become the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and found out that Pei Jingran had already arrived in the Northern Qi Dynasty, so he came to ask Pei Jingran for help so that she could persuade Chu Yi to help him."

Shui Lingyue suddenly realized, and said: "Pei Sheng has arrived in Xirong. I really didn't expect that when we went to Nanchu that day, he did bad things and wanted to catch us all. Now that we are in trouble, I want to ask Chu Yi for help. I want to come to Pei Jingran No matter how stupid you are, you won’t agree.”

Xiao Xia said: "Then Pei Jingran is indeed very difficult. She first asked about the number of them in Qidu, and then complained, saying that Chu Yi was going to marry Li Xiuxiu, the daughter of the guard of Yangzhou City, as queen. It has fallen out of favor, not to mention influencing the emperor's diplomatic decisions, even self-protection is difficult."

Shui Lingyue nodded slightly. Hearing this, she already faintly guessed what Pei Jingran was thinking. She was short of manpower now, and she still didn't hold on tightly to this force that fell from the sky?
Shui Lingyue asked: "What did the guard say?"

Xiao Xia said: "The guard thought about it for a while, and immediately knelt down to express his loyalty to Concubine Jing, saying that he was willing to listen to her orders."

Shui Lingyue nodded, "This guard is pretty smart and knowledgeable about current affairs."

Xiao Xia didn't think so, and said: "That's smart, but I think it's stupid. Later, Concubine Jing said that I can't protect myself now. You are willing to follow me, but I don't have anything to reward you. It will be life-threatening, you have to think about it carefully."

Xiao Xia imitated Pei Jingran's indifferent tone and said it, with a disapproving expression on his face.

Ah Zhen kicked him on the leg and cursed: "You little shrimp, what reward do you want?"

Xiao Xia was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned aggrieved, and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, calm down, Xiao Xia dare not ask for any reward, and is willing to cook shrimp for Your Highness."

A-Zhen waved her fist and said angrily, "You're just a big horse prawn."

Shui Lingyue looked at her, couldn't stop laughing, pointed at Ah Zhen, and said with a smile: "Ah Zhen, you have a big temper."

A-Zhen scratched her head in embarrassment, and said, "It's all because of them. I'd rather be A-Zhen, the girl's maid."

Shui Lingyue said: "I never regarded you as a maid, we have always been good friends, sister."

Ah Zhen was very moved when she heard it, and she said with tears in her eyes: "Girl..."

Shui Lingyue patted her hand, then asked Xiao Xia, "But how many people did Pei Sheng send to Beiqi?"

Xiao Xia said: "The guard said that there are 50 people, and three of them have broken into the Northern Qi Palace."

Shui Lingyue murmured, "Barely enough."

Shrimp was puzzled and asked, "What is enough?"

Shui Lingyue didn't answer him, but only asked: "Did they discuss tomorrow's action?"

Xiao Xia shook his head and said: "No discussion, Concubine Jing just told him to wait in secret outside the emperor and empress's new house tomorrow night, and if she needs it, she will call them."

Shui Lingyue asked again: "Then what is their contact signal?"

"A small boat whistle. It's very shrill."
