The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 231 Journey

After Liu Wei received the imperial edict, he couldn't help being surprised.

Why did the Holy Majesty suddenly ask him to go to Southern Tang as an envoy?

He couldn't figure it out, but even if he couldn't figure it out, the edict had been issued, and he had to go to Southern Tang.

The imperial edict didn't say much else, it only said that the ruler of the Southern Tang Dynasty should not go in response to the imperial edict of the Great Song Dynasty, making him blame him.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to show the power of the great power and ask Li Yu to bow his head and admit his mistakes.

This is a difficult task, and it is a dangerous difficult task. Although the Southern Tang Dynasty has bowed its head to the Great Song Dynasty, no matter whether it is the lord Li Yu or other ministers in the Southern Tang Dynasty, they are not reconciled to their current status. There are countless more, if I go too far, it will definitely cause their dissatisfaction, but if I don't blame enough, and I can't complete the task assigned by Zhao Kuangyin, this mission will be regarded as a failure, and it will definitely be regarded as a national mission. sinner.

Difficult, difficult, difficult!

Liu Wei shook his head three times in a row, said three difficult words, then ordered people to prepare his luggage, and went to Washington quietly by himself.

After seeing Qiushuang and Dongyu, Liu Wei explained the appointment of the imperial court, and then asked Qiushuang for her opinion. Qiushuang frowned slightly, and then smiled slightly: "My lord must go this trip. As for going to the South I'm afraid we can only talk about Tang's matter after we're gone, but with your lord's ingenuity, why can't you adapt to change and save the day?"

Liu Wei shrugged: "I didn't expect Miss Qiushuang to be so confident in me."

"It's just that the adults do have the capital to make me confident in you."

Liu Wei smiled without saying a word, at this moment Dong Yu suddenly asked: "Who will the adults take?"

"Naturally, it's those people from the government office. You should just stay in Prince Xing's mansion. I'm here today. Apart from telling you these things, I also want to ask Miss Qiushuang to take care of the city of Prince Xing's mansion. I don't know where I am going. When we can come back, then Jiang Jie and Wen Lei will definitely not let it go, but fortunately we have Wen Lei's weakness under control, as long as we are a little vigilant to him, he will not dare to act presumptuously."

After Liu Wei finished speaking, Qiu Shuang smiled slightly: "Your Excellency, you can rest assured, but based on my guess, it may be difficult for you to return to Xingwangfu City."

Hearing Qiushuang's words, Dongyu's face suddenly changed: "Sister Qiushuang, what are you talking about, your lord is going on behalf of the Song court, how dare the people of Southern Tang do anything to you?"

Seeing Dongyu like this, Qiushuang knew that she was thinking too much, so she smiled lightly: "I didn't say anything about your lord, I just think that your lord has made great achievements in going to the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the court will reward you, so you won't let your lord go back to the Xing Palace again. Just be a magistrate, and..."

"And what?"

"And don't you think it's strange, you are just a magistrate of Prince Xing's mansion. If you want to go on an envoy to the Southern Tang Dynasty, there are many ministers in the court. How could it be your turn?"

This is exactly what Liu Wei didn't understand.

"The only explanation is that some people don't want you to stay in Xingwang's mansion anymore, so they want to transfer your lord away from Xingwang's mansion and go to the Southern Tang Dynasty. If that's the case, do you think you can return to Xingwang's mansion?"

Qiu Shuang's words made Liu Weimao suddenly enlightened, but he couldn't figure it out, did the people in the court want him to leave Xingwang's mansion?Liu Wei deeply felt his own weakness, if his spies spread all over the country, he would definitely be able to hide the affairs of the capital from him.

After they finished speaking, Liu Wei was about to leave when Hua Qiongxian suddenly appeared and stopped Liu Wei.

"Are you going to Nantang?"

Liu Wei nodded: "Holy fate is hard to break."

"I also need to go."

"This... has nowhere to place you!"

Hua Qiongxian smiled: "I'll go with Qin Yun. She's going to Nantang to do business, so I'll just follow her."

Liu Wei was a little speechless, but Hua Qiongxian had already found a reason, so he couldn't say anything more.
-
Things were dangerous in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Liu Wei didn't want Princess Ruyi to follow her.

But when Liu Wei expressed his thoughts, Princess Ruyi shook her head and insisted on going.

The two have been together for such a long time, and Liu Wei also has a little understanding of Princess Ruyi. She is a very tough person, and it is difficult to change once a decision is made. I know that I can't persuade her, so Liu Wei has no choice but to let her decide. .

After tidying up, Liu Wei and the others left King Xing's Mansion for the Southern Tang on the second day after receiving the edict. Because the land route was difficult and slow, they planned to take the water route and go straight to the Qinhuai River.

Moreover, it is safe to walk by water, and you will not encounter the troubles of various checkpoints along the way.

Just as Liu Wei and others were heading towards Jinling, Lu Duan, Cao Jue and others also set off with their envoy team on the capital side.

The mission team is very large, with more than ten thousand people following.

What they didn't expect was that the envoy team was suddenly attacked as soon as they left the Song Dynasty and entered the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

It was noon at that time, and everyone was taking a rest after lunch, when a white-branched sharp arrow suddenly came from the forest, someone was hit by the sharp arrow, and the entire mission team was in chaos, but Lu Duan was able to maintain his stability, Immediately organize people to resist the sharp arrows, in addition to sending people on fast horses to attack.

Cao Jue has always been very heroic, so he took the lead and charged forward with weapons in hand, but when Cao Jue led his troops to rush forward, the attackers had already scattered away.

The casualties of the mission were not serious, but everyone was very angry and aggrieved by such a disturbance.

"His grandma, Nantang is too deceitful. They started to make trouble for us as soon as we entered their territory..."

"Master, fight with them..."

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were still very bloody at this time, but Lu Duan shook his head after hearing it: "What a big deal the two countries are going to war, and what's more, the matter is not clear, so how can they kill you at will? Everything will be done after meeting Lord Liu Discuss."

Cao Jue was a little unconvinced after hearing Lu Duan's words. Could it be that their Da Song was still afraid that the Southern Tang would fail, but although he was not convinced, he was told by his father in every possible way when he came, that he must listen to Lu Duan's words, so he had no choice but to endure.

And just after the attack on the Great Song Mission, Pan Weiji, who was far away in Duanzhou, nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

"As long as you keep harassing the Great Song Mission, the soldiers of the Great Song will not be able to bear it anymore, and will eventually have a conflict with the Southern Tang. If the Southern Tang and the Great Song can really fight, there is hope for my restoration of the country."

After Pan Weiji finished speaking, Li Shengnan nodded in agreement: "Young master's plan is clever. When the Southern Tang and Wuyue countries were sent to the Song Dynasty, we stopped them, but because both of them had scruples about our Song Dynasty. , so they dare not attack, but our Song Dynasty is a big country. If they are attacked frequently in the Southern Tang Dynasty, it will be strange if they can bear it. I'm afraid I can't help it, and there is Cao Jue, a reckless man in the Song Dynasty mission, and other soldiers can bear it, but he may not be able to bear it."

Pan Weiji smiled: "Not bad, not bad." After saying this, Pan Weiji said again: "How is the arrangement at Liu Wei's side?"

"Don't worry, my lord. There are already people waiting for him at sea. It's best to kill him. Even if you can't kill him, you have to frighten him."
-
The autumn colors become stronger the further north you go.

It's not very obvious on the surface of the sea, but when you look up at the sky, you can always feel an indelible worry.

Liuwei's boat is very big, and there is more than one of them. They have been floating on the sea for a few days. The days are very boring, and they can only move around in such a small place on the boat every day.

Therefore, for some lively and active people, they will not be able to stand the loneliness here, so they always want to find something to do.

Just when they were always looking for something to do, something came along.

It was before evening, the sea breeze was not broken, and the setting sun seemed soft in the future.

Liu Wei's boat was suddenly surrounded by fleets rushing from all directions.

Every boat was full of people, and the sharp arrows had already been set, and Liu Wei and the others might be shot to death on the boat at any time.

Princess Ruyi was a little nervous, and said, "A person from Southern Tang?"

Liu Wei shook his head with a smile: "It's just a mission. Li Yu, the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is not stupid enough to send someone to assassinate us."

"Then who are they?"

Who are they?Liu Wei shook his head, he didn't know who these people who appeared suddenly were, but since they appeared, Liu Wei would never let them go out alive.

"Retreat to the cabin."

Liu Wei said lightly one after another, and then ordered: "Let the arrows go."

Shoot arrows, but how do you shoot arrows in the cabin?

Arrows can also be shot in the cabin, because just after Liu Wei gave an order, small holes were suddenly exposed in those cabins, through which, Liu Wei's guards could freely shoot arrows in the cabin.

They can shoot the enemy, but the enemy cannot shoot them.

This was specially designed by Liu Wei after he wiped out those pirates, which is also the reason why he took the sea route, because he had such a secret weapon by sea.

Sharp arrows were shot from the cabin, and many people on the surrounding boats were shot and killed. Seeing this situation, those people immediately rushed into the cabin, and now they surrounded Liu Wei's boat, as long as Liu Wei dared to come out , They will be able to kill Liu Wei, unless Liu Wei hides in it all his life, but this is obviously impossible.

The enemy hid in the cabin to preserve their strength, Liu Wei snorted coldly, and called Daniel over: "Break their boat."

Daniel has long been tired of the boring life on the boat. Now that he has something to do, he is naturally very excited. He takes out his bow and arrow, finds a hole, and shoots one arrow after another.

Not long after, the surrounding boats were shot full of holes by Daniel's arrows, and the water was gushing in, and the boats were about to sink.

"His grandma's, jump ship."

If they didn't want to die, they could only jump off the boat, and right after they jumped into the water, Liu Wei led people to rush out, and for a moment, sharp arrows shot at those who fell into the water, and the sea was soon red, like a sea of ​​blood .

A crisis was resolved by Liu Wei in this way.
