The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 70
After discussing with Mo Luotang, Ran Hai and Mo Luotang left the secret room to prepare for the planned matters.

After Ran Hai left the secret room, Mo Luotang went back to the table and picked up a brush, wrote a note and hid it in his bosom.After that, he walked out of the secret room as if nothing had happened, came to an unoccupied corner of the courtyard, whistled, and a gray pigeon flew down from the roof.Mo Luotang stuffed the written note into the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, then threw the pigeon into the air and let it fly.

At the same time that Mo Xiaotang was sending out a carrier pigeon, Zuo Haobai, the leader of the martial arts alliance, also received a carrier pigeon. The carrier pigeon came from the capital, and it was a carrier pigeon sent by Master Leng.

After Zuo Haobai read Master Leng's superstition, he couldn't help but sighed a long time and said to himself: "Hey, why are you doing this? No matter who you want to kill, I can kill you for you. Why do you have to do it?" To put yourself in danger."

After Zuo Haobai finished speaking, he sighed again, and then stood up to make arrangements for his departure.

At dinner, Ye Junyan eats much slower than before, and looks at Gu Xinning from time to time, as if looking forward to something in his eyes, Gu Xinning understands Ye Junyan's expectation, Ye Junyan hopes that Gu Xinning will be honest with him, but Gu Xinning kept her head down and ate in silence.

Ye Junyan's gaze also gradually changed from anticipation to waiting, and finally to disappointment and helplessness.He had already seen that Gu Xinning chose to keep concealing it.Ye Junyan couldn't help but wanted to ask, but he hesitated several times.

After the long meal, Gu Xinning thought Ye Junyan bowed her body and saluted, then walked back to the room silently with her head down.Ye Junyan looked at Gu Xinning's back and shook his head with a sigh.Get up and go back to the main hall to watch the memorial.

Time flew by like a shuttle, and two days passed in a blink of an eye. These two days were tormenting for everyone.Some people are waiting, waiting almost to run out of patience; some people are looking forward to, almost losing hope; some people are guarding, guarding a secret that is almost no longer a secret; some people are rushing, and some are rushing to save others Yes, there are also those who are rushing to kill.

In the early morning, led by Zuo Haobai, there were more than [-] horses riding fast towards the capital. At this time, the team was less than [-] miles away from the capital. They are Zuo Haobai's extremely capable assistants. Not only must they be the best of the best, but they also have different unique skills. In this small team, everyone is chosen out of ten thousand.

In southern Xinjiang, Ying Keqing, the leader of southern Xinjiang, is calling the leaders of various tribes to discuss the content of superstition sent back by Mo Luotang.

Ying Keqing read the contents of the secret letter to everyone in public, and then continued: "According to the report from Xiaotang, Ran Hai is going to deal with Gu Xinning on the New Year's Eve of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, and it will definitely cause a disturbance. , I believe it can create a good offensive opportunity, what do you think?"

Ha Bishan stood up with displeasure on his face and said: "Last time Mo said that Ye Junyan was dead, let us gather an army to attack Zhaoxuan Kingdom, but Ye Junyan was safe and sound, but my elder brother died. We also lied to us and assembled all the troops, but in the end we returned in disgrace and without success, this time I don’t know if they are trying to harm us again.”

Ying Keqing knew that Ha Bishan was still brooding over Ha Qishan's death, and hated Mo Luotang, and the unhappiness between the two of them when the soldiers invaded the border last time made him accept Mo Luotang's statement at this moment. With difficulty, I had to try to explain for Mo Xiaotang: "I know that Patriarch Ha is still worried about Brother Ling's death. Afterwards, Xiaotang explained to me the situation at that time. It was indeed Ye Junyan who was too terrible. Xiaotang himself almost died, and he felt guilty for failing to keep Brother Ling, but I hope Commander Ha can understand two things."

Ha Bishan knew that Ying Keqing admired Mo Luotang, and expected that Ying Keqing would speak for Mo Luotang, but his face became even more displeased, and he turned his head to one side and said: "What does the chief have to teach, it's okay to speak bluntly, I ha Someone has a thick skin."

Ying Keqing looked closely at Ha Bishan and said: "Two things, first, no matter whether it is the Ha family, Mo family, Ying family or the chiefs of the tribes present, everyone's common enemy is Zhaoxuan country; second, The person who killed your elder brother Ha Qishan was the emperor of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, not Mo Luotang. Does Patriarch Ha want to harm the whole southern Xinjiang because of his own personal grievances?"

Hearing what Ying Keqing said, the patriarchs of various tribes cast their eyes on Ha Bishan one after another. Although Ha Bishan was still dissatisfied in his heart, he also understood the current situation. It was inevitable that he would be ridiculed or even hostile by other tribes, so he had no choice but to keep silent. After sighing, he returned to his seat and sat down unwillingly.

Ying Keqing nodded and asked everyone, "If you have any comments, you might as well say them all, and we can discuss them together."

At this time, another tribal chief stood up, saluted the leader and said, "Leader, Zhaoxuan Kingdom will fight sooner or later, but how can we be sure whether this time is really a good opportunity?"

Ying Keqing heard something in the other party's words, so he asked: "Is there any worry about Patriarch Tuoba? You might as well say it for everyone's reference."

It was Tuoba Tu, the patriarch of the Tuoba tribe who spoke, and Tuoba Tu said, "I'm worried that it will be like last time, millions of troops have been mobilized to the border of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, but in the end Without even shooting a single arrow, the whole army was withdrawn. Such a large mobilization of the army is not a waste of time and money. An army of one million is afraid that it will inevitably be defeated by one blow."

Hearing this, Ying Keqing couldn't help lowering her head and began to ponder. She knew that Tuobatu's worries were not wrong. The hasty withdrawal of troops last time cast a shadow on the hearts of many soldiers. It plays the key to deciding the outcome.

The last time the troops retreated for no reason, it had already shaken the morale of the army, and it was unknown if a similar situation happened a second time, and it might even lead to a mutiny.Most of the soldiers in southern Xinjiang are not afraid of death, they care more about their own dignity.

At this moment, Ying Keqing has one thing confirmed in his heart. If he decides to send troops this time, no matter what the final result is, no matter whether the situation is favorable or unfavorable to him, he must go to war, and he must never return without success again. .Therefore, in Ying Keqing's heart, there is only one thing to weigh now, and that is, 'to send troops or not to send troops? '

Everyone is looking at Ying Keqing, Ying Keqing is biting his lip and considering how to make a choice.

Finally, a firm and resolute gaze appeared on Ying Keqing's expression, and Ying Keqing's vermilion lips parted lightly, ordering everyone: "All the ministries will return to the camp to prepare, and the army will be assembled soon, and we will fight Zhaoxuan again. I vow to take Zhaoxuan Kingdom, if not, I will return it with a shroud of horse leather." The phrase "return the body of horse leather" is equivalent to expressing the state of mind to all the patriarchs, and the people no longer hesitated, they all stood up and said respectfully: "We all respect the great leader and general order , don’t hesitate to shroud the corpse in horse leather, and swear to destroy Zhaoxuan!"

Ying Keqing looked at the crowd below with satisfaction, nodded and smiled and told them to step back and go back to get ready.Ying Keqing himself replied a secret letter to Mo Luotang, telling Mo Luotang that he was already making final preparations, and asked Mo Luotang to go all out to disrupt Zhaoxuan Kingdom.

When Nanjiang was preparing to dispatch troops, Ye Junyan was still immersed in the affair with his children, unable to extricate himself, Ye Junyan found that he cared more and more about Gu Xinning day by day, and what secrets were hidden in her heart?Do you care why she visits the Palm Printing Department at night?Care about what she dreams of who often suffers from nightmares?Who cares about the man who helped Gu Xinning?Who cares about Mo Luotang who is shouting in Gu Xinning's dream?

At this time, Ye Junyan was holding the memorial in his hand, but he couldn't read a single word. His mind was full of Gu Xinning's shadow. Although Gu Xinning was in the room twenty or thirty steps away, Ye Junyan felt that The distance between the two of them is so far away, the distance is like the moon in the sky, but what I can touch is only the shadow in the water.

Zuo Haobai rode more than [-] fast horses to the capital, and now he is still in Lengfu.When Master Leng saw Zuo Haobai coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him personally, and was about to kneel down to salute, Zuo Haobai stretched out his hand and asked, while stopping Master Leng, "How is the situation now?"

Master Leng told Zuo Haobai about the failure of sending him to intercept Zhao Yuning and Gu Xining's entrusting Nianse to his care.

After listening, Zuo Haobai asked, "Nian Se? The girl Ning'er brought with her? I've seen her twice before. Where is she now?"

Master Leng quickly replied: "I live in a wing room in the backyard, and my subordinate will take you there right away." Master Leng made a gesture of invitation while talking.

Master Leng took Zuo Haobai all the way to the room where Nianse lived. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Nianse sitting limply on the bed. Picking up Nianse's hand, after touching Nianse's pulse for a while, he turned around and said to Master Leng displeasedly: "Dispelling power? Leng Lengfeng, you were once a hero, how could you use such a method?"

Master Leng was shocked when he heard the words, knelt down and said: "The subordinates know their mistakes. At that time, they saw Miss Nian's martial arts skills are good, and they were worried that these subordinates would not look down on Miss Nian, so they made such a bad move. Please punish the left leader. "

Zuo Haobai knew Leng Feng's character, knew that he had no choice but to do it, and didn't intend to pursue it too much, but said with displeasure: "Quickly go and get the antidote."

"Yes." Leng Lengfeng immediately turned around to get the antidote.

Zuo Haobai turned his head to look at Nianse, Nianse was struggling to get up from the bed to salute Zuo Haobai, Zuo Haobai signaled Nianse not to get up, and said: "You are not my subordinate, so you don't need to deliberately salute, Leng Lengfeng treats you like this You, what do you want to do with him."

Nian Se shook her head slightly and said: "Master Leng did things for Nian Se's good, and Nian Se doesn't blame him." Women are indeed very entangled animals sometimes, scolding you to death, hating you to death, really But when it came time for her to make a decision, they would often let go of the person they hated to death.Because in fact, in their hearts, they know who is good for her, but sometimes they don't want to admit it.
