Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 919 The Queen Has Been Mad

The Tubo soldiers watched with bated breath as the officer approached Ying Cheng Lin Bu Chi step by step.

"Let him come here." Following Ying Cheng's order, the Tubo soldiers automatically backed away to the two sides, making way for the officer of the Xiangfu Kingdom.

"I am Fu Hongliang, the military judge of the White Tiger Legion of the Xiangfu Kingdom, begging for surrender from your army." In Fu Hongliang's throat, he uttered these words with great difficulty. Ying Chenglin and Huangfu looked at each other, and the former said: "Where's Yang Yanguang? Why doesn't he come?"

"Here is the head of General Yang. The general's last words, please recite the virtue of your army in heaven, and let the people in the city have a way out. This is the Lanzhou household registration book!"

Yingcheng Lin Buchi was taken aback, and frowned tightly: "Yang Yanguang is dead?" A soldier took the wooden box from Wen Zitao's hand, opened it, and it was Yang Yanguang's head!
"General Yang hopes to exchange his head for Lord Yingcheng Lin Buchi's kindness."

Yingcheng Lin Buchi didn't answer Wen Zitao, holding his whip and looking at the dilapidated city of Lanzhou, he didn't know what it was like, and his face was a little ugly.He naturally knew that Yang Yanguang was the son of Yang Jiye, the general of the Zhu Kingdom who was in charge of the country's troops and horses in the Xiangfu Kingdom.Originally, according to his plan, he wanted to take down the territory of Lanzhou, and then use the release of Yang Yanjun as the main bargaining chip to ease the relationship with Xiangfu Kingdom as much as possible.

After all, they attacked Lanzhou under the pretext that Liangzhou, which originally belonged to them in Tubo, was acquired by Xiangfu Kingdom, but from the original intention, Ying Chenglin Buchi didn't want to fight with Xiangfu Kingdom forever.He has even made up his mind that after taking down the territory of Lanzhou, he will look at the situation. If Xiangfu Kingdom does not send troops, he will stay there, and even tell Xiangfu Kingdom that the Song Dynasty sent people to rob and kill the head of the White Tiger Army according to the situation. Han Hu's family also used explosives to kill the mansion of An Duo Xiagao, a division of Wu Shengjun, and secretly instigated dissension, which made Han Hu and An Duo Xiagao lead troops to avenge each other and start a war.Afterwards, if Xiangfu Kingdom wanted Lanzhou, he would exchange Liangzhou for Lanzhou to bargain on the basis that Liangzhou belonged to Tubo.Such a series of arrangements can greatly ease the hostile relationship between him and Xiangfu Kingdom.

However, now that Yang Jiye's son Yang Yanjun is dead, this will inevitably greatly affect his wishful thinking.

"Take his household registration book. I promise you that after entering the city, I will never invade the people." Ying Cheng Lin Bu said in a low voice.

"Thank you, Master Ying Cheng Lin Bu Chi!" Fu Hongliang bowed to Ying Cheng Lin Bu Chi, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Several personal soldiers rushed up, turned over Fu Hongliang's body, and found a dagger stuck in his chest.

"Bury this person generously." Ying Cheng Lin Buchi sighed.His eyes moved over the wooden box containing Yang Yanguang's head, and he ordered loudly: "Get ready to enter the city!"

At this moment, a noise was heard from the direction of the east city. Not long after, a soldier came running on horseback and shouted, "That Wen Zitao led a group of cavalry to break through from the north gate of Lanzhou city!"

In the end Wen Zitao led three hundred cavalry to escape.

So far, in Lanzhou, apart from Gaizhu City, the gateway from Lanzhou to Shunzhou, which is still in the hands of Xiangfu Kingdom, Lanzhou City and the three county towns have all fallen into the hands of the Tibetans.

It has been six days since Xia Jing and Ye Chen ordered Deng Chongxuan and Zhang Dawei to lead the Suzaku Legion and Qinglong Legion with 5000 people each, plus [-] special brigades from Bai Canghai to Lanzhou for support.Counting the time, the nearest Suzaku Legion is almost here.But Ye Chen knew that if there were no accidents, Yang Yanguang in Lanzhou City would not be able to wait for the moment when the reinforcements arrived.In addition, the Ministry of Security has further confirmed the news that the White Tiger Army was almost wiped out and that Han Hu died in the country.This is the first senior general above deputy regiment commander to die in battle since the founding of the Xiangfu state. If the White Tiger Legion is not counted as the infantry brigade that participated in the Western Expedition, only the Xuanwu Legion suffered heavy losses when it was founded last year. Compared with the time when the state was ambushed.

After Ye Chen's consent, "Xiangfu News" and "Xiajing Express" reported the battle of Lanzhou with some reservations while reporting the three consecutive victories in the Hexi Corridor.Although the White Tiger Legion was defeated, compared to the time when the Liao army entered Yinzhou last year, the people were shocked, but they didn't panic. Joking around, big countries like Song and Liao were defeated by His Majesty's army, little Tubo What are people afraid of.Lanzhou City was defeated for a while, but it was just a trick of the enemy. After the reinforcements sent by His Majesty arrived in Lanzhou, Lanzhou City would naturally be taken back easily, and by the way, it would avenge the soldiers of the White Tiger Army.This is the thinking of most people in Xiangfu Kingdom.

Government Affairs Hall, Xiaochaohui.The ministers are discussing the secret report sent by Liu Jinyuan from the distant South China Sea.

"Your Majesty, from my point of view, Liu Jinyuan's establishment of a stronghold in the South China Sea, the expansion of the navy, and the vigorous development of maritime trade are more important than the Jurchen tribe buried in the Liao Kingdom. Just imagine, if the Xiangfu Kingdom suddenly made a big move one day. What kind of scene would it be if Liu Jinyuan led [-] sailors to land from the south of Song State when our Xiangfu State sent troops to Song State?" Han Xizai expressed joy and sincerely praised.

Ye Chen nodded and said: "I have sent a secret decree to Liu Jinyuan, asking him to develop his power and develop maritime trade as much as possible, but not to provoke Song Guo, and to conceal his strength as much as possible, so as not to arouse Song Guo's vigilance. "

At this time, a wolf howling with a unique charm came faintly from the direction of the harem. Ye Chen frowned, thinking that his precious daughter's silver wolf had become more and more spiritual recently, and Ye Chen estimated that it seemed to be no less than a wolf. The IQ of a seven or eight-year-old child.It's just that there are wolves howling from time to time in the palace, which is too unseemly!
Ye Chen was thinking wildly, when Hu Sanguang suddenly said: "Your Majesty! I just received a secret report from Shiwa and Huang Louping today. The Queen of the Song Dynasty Harem and Concubine Shugui gave birth to boys successively last month. After that, Zhao Pu and Cao Bin is getting closer and closer, and it is estimated that some kind of consensus or even an alliance may be reached. On June 25th, Cao Wei secretly left Kaifeng and went to the northwest. I just got the news yesterday that Cao Wei has arrived in Qinzhou. According to Shiwa's inquiries Judging from the news received, Cao Wei's coming to the northwest may be related to the Lanzhou war, and Cao Wei came at the request of Zhao Pu."

Ye Chen looked a little complicated, and said with emotion: "The old friend is here..."

Before Ye Chen could say anything more, suddenly a hidden guard hurried into the palace through the side door, knelt down with a thump, and said anxiously, "I want to report to Your Majesty, even the commander asked the humble officer to report to His Majesty, the empress may have gone mad in her cultivation."

Ye Chen's face changed drastically when he heard that, all the officials saw His Majesty the Emperor jumping up, his figure flashed, all the officials felt that His Majesty had disappeared, they couldn't help being stunned, and then looked at each other again.Only Han Xizai didn't know what he thought of, his heart was beating wildly, but he was very deep in the city, and he didn't show the slightest, and he took the lead in saying: "The queen's body is itchy, and your majesty probably won't be able to come back for a while, everyone, why don't you go away first!"

Everyone looked at each other, didn't speak, and didn't take this matter to heart, they walked out in twos and threes.Only Hu Sanguang and Li Junhao looked at each other, frowning.

Ye Chen knew very well that Yu Daoxiang's skills were special, and that being insane was a matter of life and death. He unfolded all the way, and soon arrived at the Dongtian Temple where Yu Daoxiang used to retreat and practice.

Ye Chen first saw from a distance the precious daughter Ye Yu, who was about to turn three years old, riding behind her little silver wolf in front of the Dongtian Temple, surrounded by a group of maids who were at a loss, and Lian Ji, who personally guarded the Dongtian Temple according to his order Cheng knelt in front of Ye Yu, looking at the 'Wolf Knight' with a dumbfounded look on his face.

When Ye Chen got closer, he realized that Ye Yu's big black jewel-like eyes were filled with mist, and his face was full of grievances.

Seeing Ye Chen coming, Lian Jicheng heaved a sigh of relief. Ye Chen found that Lian Jicheng, who was able to escape alive even in the face of the new generation of demon king Cui Xi, was covered with sweat at this time. Obviously Ye Yu gave him a lot pressure'.

"Father, I want to go in to see the queen's aunt, but he won't let me in." Ye Yu was eccentric, and before the court ladies and servants and Lian Jicheng finished saluting Ye Chen, he took the lead in complaining.While talking, she patted the little silver wolf on the head, and the little silver wolf lay down obediently. Ye Yu skilfully slid off the wolf's back and ran towards Ye Chen. Ye Chen picked him up casually, but He ignored her, glanced at Dongtian Temple, looked at Lian Jicheng and said, "What's going on?"

Lian Jicheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Eldest Princess wants to enter the Dongtian Palace to see Her Majesty the Empress, but I stop her. Her Highness the Eldest Princess, a silver wolf, howled in front of the Dongtian Palace. Immediately afterward, I heard some movement in the Dongtian Palace. I am worried that the queen has a problem with her cultivation, so I asked someone to report to His Majesty."

Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned, turned around and handed Ye Yu to a court lady, and said, "Take care of the princess."

While talking, he didn't care about Ye Yu's resistance and anguish, so he entered the Dongtian Temple, "Without my will, no one is allowed to enter." Ye Chen's voice came from afar, and Lian Jicheng respectfully said yes.

"Wow wow wow wow... Father ignores me." Ye Yu burst into tears suddenly, a group of court ladies panicked, and hurriedly took out all kinds of toys and delicious things to coax in a low voice, but at this moment the little silver The wolf suddenly jumped up and bit the throat of the court lady who had taken Ye Yu from Ye Chen before. With a click, the neck was bitten off, hot blood spurted out, sprayed Ye Yu, and Ye Yu was stunned. One moment, and the next moment the crying was even louder.

These court ladies have never seen such a bloody scene before. The ordinary court ladies screamed in fright and ran away in a panic. The little silver wolf hurt the princess, but these two court ladies were not ordinary court ladies, they were beautiful poison guards trained by the ghost doctor and Shui'er.
