The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 253 meet again
After hearing Ran Hai's words, the four of them immediately regained their energy. They felt that Ran Hai's attention was indeed feasible.

He simply put all his chips on Gu Xinning, and might be able to wipe out the high priest and Gu Xinning in one go.

With a goal in mind, it would be much more convenient to make a plan. Many individuals decided on a plan and began to arrange their own arrangements, vowing to make Gu Xining's trip to southern Xinjiang never come back.

The four of them dispatched [-] elite soldiers from their camps, and ambushed near the border between Southern Xinjiang and Zhaoxuan Kingdom. They waited for Gu Xinning to appear, and the army surrounded and took her down. It was perfect, and it happened to kill the two of them.

At this time, a major event was happening in the Liuli National Army. Suddenly, someone took the emperor's letter and summoned Zhou Changsheng, the supervising army, to return to the capital immediately.

Zhou Changsheng remembered that he had just returned from the capital, how could the emperor summon him so soon?Suspicious in his heart, he secretly said: "I'm afraid the emperor has heard someone's gossip about me."

Thinking of this, Zhou Changsheng smiled and I replied: "Okay, I already know about it, please go back and tell the emperor, Zhou Changsheng will meet soon after he finishes handling military affairs."

The other party had no intention of leaving and said: "Master Zhou, I think I have read the imperial decree very clearly. The emperor invites you to go back with me immediately. There must be no mistakes. Please don't make things difficult for me, Lord Zhou."

Hearing this, Zhou Changsheng knew that the emperor's recall was definitely to get rid of him, so he continued to refuse with a smile: "But I have just returned to the army, and many things have not been arranged in time. If something goes wrong, why don't you stay in the army temporarily for a day or two, my lord, and return to Beijing with you after I finish handling the affairs."

"Lord Zhou, let me say it again, the emperor wants me to announce Lord Zhou back to the palace immediately. As for other matters, I will not ask any questions."

"If you lose a battle except for troubles in the army, can you take responsibility for it?" Zhou Changsheng saw that the other party would not accept his softness, so he frightened him with exaggerated words.

But the other party still didn't buy it, and just said lightly: "Wars are the business of soldiers, and I work for the emperor, just follow the emperor's orders, come here!"

"Yes." The official who delivered the decree gave an order, and dozens of attendants behind him immediately responded and stepped forward to stand in line, waiting for further instructions.

The man squinted at Zhou Changsheng and said to everyone: "The emperor ordered Zhou Changsheng to go back to Beijing obediently. If Zhou Changsheng refuses to submit and disrespects the order, he will be arrested and returned to Beijing. There must be no mistakes, my lord." Here, everyone obeys orders, Zhou Changsheng disobeyed the order and disrespected, according to the emperor's order, he was arrested and brought back to Beijing, and we will do it."

"Yes!" Everyone surrounded Zhou Changsheng after Ying Lian said.

"Presumptuous, why are you being rude to me? I am an important minister in the court, and the emperor trusts me the most. If you dare to be rude to me, when you return to the capital, I will tell the emperor to copy your home and destroy your family." " Zhou Changsheng shouted loudly while struggling.

"Hmph, after you meet the emperor, let's talk about it if you still survive, take him away!"

The crowd tied up Zhou Changsheng's five flowers, threw them into an empty grain truck, and was pulled by a horse towards the direction of the capital. Zhou Changsheng was still swearing continuously, and finally his mouth was slapped. Put it on with a cloth, and then it quieted down.

At this time, Zhou Changsheng began to regret a little, and thought to himself: "If I had listened to my uncle's advice, maybe I would not have ended up in the land I am today, no! No, it is the royal family of Zhaoxuan Kingdom who is sorry for our Zhou family. Why should I compromise? I just want to disturb Zhaoxuan Kingdom and make them feel uneasy. Even if I can't sleep with you, I will keep you in a state of anxiety and restlessness all day long. Ha ha ha ha ha."

Not long after Zhou Changsheng was taken away, the front line received another imperial decree, which stated that the entire army of the Liuli Kingdom should withdraw and return to their homeland, and it would be executed immediately without error.

After hearing this news, almost the whole army, from the general to the soldiers, rejoiced, as if they had received an amnesty. In the Liuli Kingdom, no matter whether it was a general or a soldier, anyone with a discerning eye could see For Zhaoxuan Kingdom, it is certain to be defeated, there is no chance of winning at all, but it has been hindered by the emperor's order, and has to do it for you. Now that the emperor personally ordered the withdrawal of troops, the whole army is naturally jubilant.

The hard work of the long-distance trek for days, the despair of running out of ammunition and food, at this moment, they were finally relieved. Originally, General Shi ordered to leave the camp and return home tomorrow morning, but the soldiers could not suppress their enthusiasm for returning home, and they all said that they would sleep anyway. If you don't realize it, it's better to drive all night, and you can return to your homeland one day earlier.

The general saw that everyone was returning home like an arrow, so he ordered the camp to be dismantled immediately, and traveled all night to return to Liuli Kingdom.

Suddenly the Liuli country barracks was brightly lit, and the soldiers looked rejoicing, which alarmed the soldiers of Zhaoxuan country stationed nearby. They thought it was people from the Liuli country who were planning to attack him at night, so they immediately sounded the alarm and stood ready.

Unexpectedly, the soldiers of the Liuli Kingdom did not seem to attack him at all, but ran in the opposite direction happily.

Seeing this, the general of Zhaoxuan Kingdom was a little puzzled and suspected that it was the enemy's trick to lure the enemy, so he sent a spy to investigate. When he got the news that the Liuli Kingdom's army had withdrawn, the Zhaoxuan Kingdom's army was also full of joy, and the general immediately He ordered that the good news be reported to the capital immediately at a speed of eight hundred miles.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Xinning set foot on the land of southern Xinjiang again. In order to welcome the arrival of the saint, the high priest personally led a team to meet her. When she saw the high priest, she was as tough as ever. , how is the high priest?"

"The old man has the saintess in mind, so it's hard to think about it. I've heard about the saintess these days. It's really difficult for the saints for more than a month. After several reincarnations, I believe the saints must be Stronger and more mature."

"High Priest, you're flattering me. By the way, I met a person on the way to southern Xinjiang this time. He said that he was related to my mother. I don't know if the high priest knows this person named Bai Shuan?" Gu Xinning thought about the high priest. Ask about Bai Zhuang'an.

Hearing Bai Shuan's name, the high priest frowned and said: "I didn't expect him to really look for you? This person's obsession is too deep, which ruined his life. Unexpectedly, he is still stubborn. Then How is he now?"

Gu Xinning said: "I have already trapped myself and died at the hands of my apprentice. Who is this person? What is his relationship with me? Why did he target me?"

"Oh, this is an old story, back then" the high priest coveted the former saintess Ying Xueru in Bai hurriedly, so that the saint finally made up her mind to leave southern Xinjiang, and later wanted to be unfavorable to Ying Xueru on the road and was later arrested. He told Gu Xinning everything about the former high priest's expulsion.

After listening to the high priest's explanation, Gu Xinning finally understood the grievances from that year.

Although the high priest hated what Bai Shuan did, but after all, he was a brother. The high priest was benevolent. After hearing the news of Bai Shuan's death, he couldn't bear it. After bowing his head for a while, the high priest sighed Said: "Hey, the saint, do you still remember the day when you cleared the poison for your lord, did the old man come late because of something?"

"I remember, at that time the high priest said that he encountered some real situations on the way and was delayed for a while. Could it be that he met this person?" Gu Xinning immediately understood the meaning of the high priest's words, and asked tentatively.

The high priest nodded and said: "That's right, you also know now that the saintesses of Southern Xinjiang are descended from a single lineage, and Bai Shuian heard about the return of the saintesses of Southern Xinjiang from somewhere, so he immediately thought of you." It's Xueru's daughter. On that day, he came to me and wanted to know about you. I made him die, but he didn't want to. When I found you, I thought it was an angry talk, but I didn't expect him to do it, to find you, alas."

Seeing that the high priest seemed to be blaming herself, Gu Xinning quickly comforted her, "You don't have to blame yourself for this, the high priest, it's hard to predict what will happen to such abnormal people. But the high priest These days, I have been bearing the pressure of the various ministries in southern Xinjiang alone, which really makes me a little unbearable."

Gu Xinning and the high priest walked slowly while talking, just as the two were communicating, suddenly there were shouts of killing around, and then soldiers poured in from all directions, raising yellow dust all over the sky, towards Gu Xinning and the high priest. Surrounded by priests.

The entourage brought by the high priest formed a big circle, guarding the high priest and Gu Xin in the middle. Gu Xinning looked calm and composed, and the high priest didn't seem flustered, as if they had expected all this a long time ago. .

Seeing Gu Xinning's composure, the high priest asked in admiration and doubt: "Faced with such a situation, the saint can still be so calm. Could it be that she has a plan for her?"

Gu Xinning smiled playfully and said, "I don't have any back tricks, but I know the high priest will definitely keep it, so the high priest is my back trick."

Hearing this, the high priest immediately said with a terrified expression: "Ah! Didn't the saint prepare a second move? I thought you had already made all the preparations, so I didn't make any second moves! This, this, this, what should I do? Do it, Holy Maiden, why don't we invest in it, or we can save our lives!"

Gu Xinning smiled and said: "It's a good idea, I agree, it's about investing in the future. The high priest is a symbol of the people's will in southern Xinjiang, and his life should be safe. However, I, the so-called saint, is also the queen of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, so I must not I will be welcomed by several major tribes and finally be persecuted to death, alas, my life is really miserable."

Seeing Gu Xinning's frowning expression, the high priest laughed and said, "Hahahaha, don't worry, the saint, the people in southern Xinjiang want the saint to be safe, and no one can touch you."

"Okay, then I will rely on the high priest for everything!" Gu Xinning's expression immediately changed from worry to joy.
