Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 312 The King Is Dead (16)
The soldiers opened the gate of the city wide, and Xianglai walked out slowly, with only a box containing the book of surrender in his arms, nothing else.

Inside the city gate, Xu Che led all the soldiers to kneel down. They didn't close the city gate until Xianglai walked a long way. Xu Che got up and came to the city to watch from a distance.

Xianglai came alone to Shi Yan and the others who were waiting outside, held the box with one hand and said, "General Shi's letter of surrender and hostages are here. Let the people go, let's retreat."

Shi Yan took the surrender letter and read it carefully, seeing that all the items he had listed in it had been clearly marked, so he raised his head, deliberately looked behind Xianglai, shook his head and said, "Tsk tsk, the people of Beiliao are so ruthless, Wangfei Giving up their freedom as hostages for them, and there is no one to give them away, not only makes me doubt the prestige of the princess, but also makes me doubt the sincerity of Beiliao's surrender!"

Xiang Lai said: "There's no doubt about it. I won't let them out. You should know how much General Shi's deeds make people hate you. Do you really want them to come and curse you?"

Before Shi Yan could reply, Lu Fusheng couldn't help shouting, "Lian Xianglai, where is my father!"

Xianglai hooked her lips and said with a sneer: "Your father... Let him stay in Beiliao. As long as I don't die, he won't die."

Lu Fusheng said: "But you promised to let him out before!"

Xianglai said: "Before was before, now is now, since Nanliao wants me, your father can only be held in Beiliao, if you want your father to go back, then tell General Shi to exchange me with him , or... you can represent Nanliao and stay in Beiliao as a military supervisor, it will be more convenient to visit your father!"

"you……"

Lu Fusheng was speechless, he knew that there was no place for him in the current Beiliao, if the angry people of Beiliao were really left behind, he would be torn apart.

Shi Yan pondered for a while and said: "Young General Lu, don't worry, with the concubine here, Old General Lu will not be in danger. We will negotiate slowly in the future, and Old General Lu will always come back."

He said that Lu Fusheng had no way to force him, so he could only stand behind him and stare at Xianglai bitterly.

The letter of surrender and the hostages had already been obtained. Shi Yan knew that Luo Jinxing would not be able to open the city gate to welcome his troops in, and that he could not spend any more time in Beiliao, so he turned around and said, "Let the people go!" .”

Only then did the soldiers withdraw the siege, untie the ropes, and let go of the thousands of civilians they had captured.

After releasing the people, Shi Yan asked someone to get a car, and said: "Princess, please get in the car, we are about to pull out the army and withdraw from the camp."

Without the slightest hesitation, Xianglai got into the car with the help of the soldiers next to him.

When I got into the car, I saw that although the car was not gorgeous, it was well paved, for fear of hurting the child in my womb by rushing.

She put her hands on Weilong's stomach without stopping, and thought silently: "My child, mother is sorry for you, you have experienced such twists and turns before you were born, and you really don't know what kind of suffering you will suffer when you really come to this world in the future! "

While she was thinking, the car was already moving slowly.

Xianglai looked back at the towering city walls of the capital, thinking that when she first came here, she felt complicated, but when she left here, she was even more sad.

On the top of the city, Xu Che looked at the Southern Liao soldiers who were gradually leaving and the shadow of the little carriage in the army, and his steel teeth were almost gritted with hatred!Thinking back to the time since I knew this woman, I have seen her calm and confident, but I don’t want to be so embarrassed after becoming a princess, and go to Nanliao alone while pregnant. I don’t know how much danger awaits her in the future. Will he be humiliated and bullied, but he can no longer be by his side to protect her!

He didn't know how much effort he had to endure the urge to lead troops down to the city to snatch Xianglai back.It wasn't until evening that all the [-] Southern Liao soldiers had withdrawn from the capital, did he turn his stiff body, and said, "Send someone on a flying horse to the border of Koryo, and inform my elder brother that the Southern Liao army has already withdrawn, and tell him not to Bring your men back again."

After finishing speaking, he went down to the palace to plead guilty to Luo Jinxing.

Xiang Lai and the Southern Liao army drove for a whole day, didn't even eat lunch, and didn't stop the army to set up camp until the end of You hour.

Perhaps for the sake of the child in Xianglai's stomach, Shi Yan didn't treat Xianglai harshly, and asked someone to prepare the best tent for her, and made the bedding as tidy as possible, but the meal at night was really bad , but a plate of vegetables and a bowl of rice.

Xiang Lai originally thought it was the intention of the soldiers, but when she walked to Shi Yan's Chinese army tent with the food, she found that the soldiers who were eating outside only drank a bowl of clear porridge, not even shredded vegetables.

She thought it was Shi Yan who didn't ask the sergeant to bring more rice in order to attack Beiliao, so she didn't take it to heart, went straight to the outside of the Chinese army, and entered inside without giving a report.

Shi Yan was also eating, the same as Xiang Lai, but a bowl of dry rice with vegetables.

Seeing that Fu came in with food, he thought that Xianglai was not satisfied with the food, so he said a little ashamedly: "I'm sorry Wangfei, our army doesn't have much rice, I have wronged Wangfei."

Xianglai came to his table, put down the food, and said: "General Shi misunderstood, I'm not as delicate as the general thought, and the rough and rotten vegetables are just as delicious. I came here to trouble the general."

As he said that, he sat down beside Shi Yan without noticing anything.

Shi Yanqi said: "I don't know what the princess wants Shi to do for me?"

Xianglai raised her hand to pick up the bamboo chopsticks, and said, "I haven't even eaten a mouthful of this food, I'll bring it here after the soldiers bring it."

As he spoke, he put a little bit of his own food into Shi Yan's bowl.

Shi Yan was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said in surprise: "Could it be that the princess is worried that Shi will poison you?"

Xianglai laughed and said, "Why would I worry about this? In the eyes of the general, the baby in my womb and I are as important as the whole Beiliao. It's just that the general doesn't want me to have an accident, but some people want us to go to the underworld together."

Shi Yan suddenly understood, and said, "You mean Mrs. Lu Shao and her sister."

Xiang Lai said: "That's right, the whole family are masters of using poison. My mother-in-law Xian Wangfei, my father-in-law Xian Bei Liao King, my uncle Qin Kai all died under their poison, even my Husband Luo Xuan almost died of poison when he was young, so he had to pretend that the remaining poison was not exhausted, but now people are swordsmen, and our mother and child are fish and meat, so we have to be very careful, so we have to use General Shi to scare someone."

As for these internal disputes in Beiliao, Shi Yan sent many spies over to investigate, and he was very clear in his heart. He picked up the bowl and ate the food from Xianglai, then put down the bowl and chopsticks and said: "Sorry, Shi Invite the princess to come to our army, but put the princess in danger."

Seeing him pick up the bowls and chopsticks after eating, Xianglai said: "It's okay, being a hostage is a narrow escape. I expected it before I came. You don't have to be so polite, as a woman, it's inconvenient to stay in the general's tent for a long time, so I will I’m going back, but I’m still going to disturb the general during the next meal, I hope the general won’t get bored.”
