Chapter 199 Princess: The Secret Guard in Palace Clothes

When Concubine Luo successfully took over the Minzhou and Lan'an prefectures, Qin Shou was able to conquer Qingzhou.

However, Concubine Luo's side is far away, unlike Qin Shou who is not close to Yunzhou.

Therefore, Lan'an didn't need to worry too much. Concubine Luo took the army and went to Dali first. She had to rush to Dali before Qin Shou, so that she could stop Qin Shou in Yunzhou.

After all, once Qingzhou is over, Yunzhou is next to it, which is really close.

And these days, the commotion between Concubine Luo and Qin Shou has been so loud that it has already alarmed the vassal princes of other states. At this time when everyone is in danger, there are those with evil intentions who are already ready to move, just waiting for an appropriate one. Timing, imitating Qin Shou's behavior and reversed.

This Dali is like this.

Concubine Luo hadn't arrived in Dali yet, only Chuchu was halfway there when she got the news——Dali was reversed!
She raised her eyebrows, and simply let Bai Ye lead the Suzaku cavalry battalion to take the lead to deal with the Dali rebels, while she led the rest of the soldiers to rush day and night.

While she was going to Dali, Qin Shou who was far away in Qingzhou even got the news one step earlier than Concubine Luo. He had captured Qingzhou for several days, but he was not in a hurry to go to Yunzhou.

He knew in his heart that according to the book of war, he should go to Yunzhou as soon as possible, so that the two kings of leisure and leisure would be caught off guard. In this way, even if Concubine Luo captured Dali and arrived in Yunzhou, he would still be able to stop them Outside the city gate.

However, he was just lazy and didn't want to move, like a ferocious beast that fell asleep after eating and drinking, and didn't even want to scratch his paws.

He didn't worry about Qingzhou's general affairs, Yan'an calmly brought his staff over from Rongzhou, which was enough.

Qin Shou was idle to recuperate from his wounds, he didn't go out, and spent all day in his study, either flipping through military books or painting with splashed ink, he clearly wanted to draw something else, but as soon as he put down the pen, his hand would spontaneously outline Concubine Luo's figure.

Otherwise, he would ask Yan'an once a day if there was any reply from the princess.

The noisy Yan'an didn't dare to move towards the prince recently, even though he didn't say anything, but when he looked at those clear and cold phoenix eyes, he knew that the prince was waiting for the princess to reply again.

When the messenger finally came back, Yan'an led him to Qin Shou, but he avoided him far away.

Qin Shou was holding the scroll in his hand, and it took him a long time to turn a page. He glanced at the messenger, "Where's the letter?"

The messenger bowed his head on one knee, and replied bravely, "The princess has never replied."

Qin Shou lifted his eyelids, and a chill emanated from him.

The messenger hurriedly said again, "The princess has something to tell the prince."

"Say." Sen Han's breath slowed down slightly, and Qin Shou's thin lips were drawn into a straight line.

The messenger almost had the determination to die, and he closed his eyes and repeated Concubine Luo's original words, "The princess said, let the prince die."

After saying these words, a small puddle of water was already dripping in front of the messenger.

Qin Shou didn't seem to be surprised at all, he nodded, and said flatly, "Back off."

As if he had been pardoned, the messenger quickly stepped back and closed the door of the study. When he walked out of the courtyard, he saw Yan'an waiting at the gate, still waving.

The messenger only felt lingering fears, as if he had narrowly escaped death. When he came to Yan'an, he cupped his hands and said with a mournful face, "Master, in the future, it is okay not to let the little one deliver the letter from the prince to the princess? The little one has not married a wife and wants to live a few more years." .”

Yan'an hummed a few times, took out an ingot of silver from his bosom, and stuffed it, "Thanks for your hard work."

In the study, Qin Shou stood by the wooden window with his hands behind his back. He saw Yan'an's little movements clearly, frowned and thought for a while, then he went to the desk, slowly studied the ink, and after a while, he rolled up his sleeves and wrote. road--

"This king recovers from his injuries and is in good health. He can live to be a hundred years old. His wife is widowed and unable to do so. It is very sad, very sad."

This time he didn't want a courier to send it, manpower was always too slow, so he directly asked Yan'an to tie the letter paper to the pigeon, and then met with the spies in the Suzaku army.

At that time, Concubine Luo was leading an army to meet Prince Gong in fifty miles on the outskirts of Dali.

She also didn't expect that before the forced palace failed, the escaped Prince Gong was hiding in Dali, and he took Dali into his pocket without anyone noticing. You have to stay on the sidelines and wait for the right time to act.

In the army, she was dressed in a bright red soft armor riding suit, fresh clothes and angry horses, very gallant and heroic, surrounded by either guards or Bai Ye and others, as dazzling as the stars arching the moon.

Prince Gong, who was a few feet away from her, was also wearing armor. He was sitting on a high-headed horse, staring at Concubine Luo with resentment, "My good niece, I can't imagine that we will meet again so soon."

Concubine Luo snorted coldly, she was sitting on a chariot with a large tasseled canopy flag, but that chariot was pulled by six horses, and there were sharp barriers on the chariot, it was ferocious and luxurious.

"Conspirator and traitor are also worthy of being king. With a dog like you in the Xi family, the ancestors will die in peace." In terms of tongue, there are few people who can be more vicious than Concubine Luo, even Qin Shou's cold temper Concubine Luo can also express her popularity in a few words.

Sure enough, Prince Gong was furious, he gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear Concubine Luo into pieces.

Concubine Luo raised her eyebrows and smiled contemptuously, "If you are sensible, you will be arrested without a fight. Maybe I will give you a decent death for the sake of the family name. Otherwise, I will clean up the unfilial descendants of the late emperor."

Because of the Empress Dowager, Concubine Luo was indifferent to the late Emperor, and she could see that she owed her existence to the Empress Dowager and her elder brother, which did not hinder the late Emperor.

On the other hand, after the late emperor left, he left a lot of mess with the emperor's brother, so it's good that she didn't blame him.

Prince Gong was so angry that his heart ached, he panted, and pointed at Concubine Luo angrily, "Today, the king will have to see, it's still unknown who will die."

"Huh," Concubine Luo didn't have much to say. She waved her hand, and the drummer began to beat the war drum. The Suzaku army on her side rushed to the sky and shouted, "The whole army obeys the order and forms a regular formation. Hit hard!"

Bai Ye immediately took a step forward and took Concubine Luo's position so that he could adjust the battle formation of the Suzaku army at any time following the fighter plane.

Prince Gong sneered disdainfully, "Xi Mi, you are just like your mother, the rooster watches the morning, as a woman, she should stay in the back house to care for her husband and raise her children, but you actually came to the battlefield, it's a good thing that the son-in-law King Rong didn't divorce you. "

As he said, the soldiers here changed their formation at all, he didn't pay attention to Concubine Luo at all, she was a girl, how could she know how to lead soldiers to fight.

"Besides, I want to see, if the concubine is not here, who else can help you." Prince Gong winked at the lieutenant general beside him, and he immediately stepped back to move the battlefield out.

Concubine Luo was at the back, and she coldly watched the majestic fighting on the battlefield. The blood covered the dust and dyed the entire battlefield crimson.

Wrapped in horse leather, the battle of life and death, but all in an instant.

Seeing that the battle was at a stalemate, Concubine Luo frowned, "I can't fight head-on with Prince Gong. The Suzaku army marches day and night, and they suffer physically from Dali's soldiers. Besides, my palace doesn't have the right time and place, and I can't delay."

Bai Yehan's eyes narrowed slightly, he stroked the hilt of the sword with his right thumb, and said after a while, "There is a way for a humble job, I don't know if it should be said or not."

"Zunzuo." Concubine Luo's voice was as delicate as jade, clear and powerful.

Bai Ye tilted his head, looked at Concubine Luo's delicate and tender face, and said with a twist of the corner of his mouth under the crow feather mask, "Since Gong Wang doesn't like the princess, I think it's better to let Gong'e pretend to be the princess and pretend to be defeated. With Wang's temperament, he will definitely catch up, and at that time, the humble official will be able to catch the turtle in his urn, as long as he captures Prince Gong, it will not be a problem to win Dali."

Concubine Luo thought carefully, but didn't speak for a while.

Bai Ye stewed for a while, and said again, "Of course, the humble can also visit the enemy's camp at night, risking their lives to assassinate Prince Gong."

"No," Concubine Luo immediately vetoed, her black and white peach blossom eyes were moist, clear and bright, but the majesty of her eyebrows remained unchanged, "Assassinating the enemy general, this is the worst strategy that can't be done."

She remembered that Qin Shou specially reminded her about this plan, not to mention success or failure, the assassination alone can make the enemy grab the handle, and they should pay the ever-changing truth and falsehood. The depth of the other party is not allowed.

Seeing that the time was about the same, she ordered, "Ming Jin withdraws troops, and we will fight again tomorrow."

After a while, the drummers in the army started to beat the war drums, and Prince Gong's side also stopped at the right time. Both of them knew that there would be no winner for a while, so why not withdraw the troops for a while to find other strategies, so as to save wasting troops.

After returning to Daying, Concubine Luo dismissed the others, leaving only Liu Gong'e and Gu Shiwei, Bai Ye Jie Liang Yu and Xi Fu, and Mo Xin who had nothing to do.

Only then did she speak slowly, "Tonight, I will make arrangements tonight. I will say that I am delicate and weak, and fell ill. The army will retreat, and Prince Gong will come to chase after him tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, Ming Yu and Ji Xia followed the palace and fled to the south. Others pretended to stop Prince Gong's army. Thirty miles away from this trip, there was a reservoir. They used rockets to force Prince Gong down the reservoir, cutting off Prince Gong and Dali's army. As long as Prince Gong is captured, the Dali army will have nothing to fear."

Concubine Luo said lightly, but the people below frowned.

Bai Ye was the first to object, "It's absolutely impossible, how can the princess's golden body be used as bait? Please think twice, the princess, and send another person to pretend to be the princess."

Xie Liangyu also shook his head, "What the guard Bai said is that although this plan is good, there is only one thing. When the princess arrives at the reservoir, if she wants to force Prince Gong into the pit, the princess must be in the pit."

Needless to say, Liugong'e even said, "My servant is willing to take the place of the princess."

Xi Fu blinked her eyes as dark as purple grapes, and echoed in a low voice, "I also think what Mr. Xie said is right, although he wants to capture Prince Gong, but his sister is also in the reservoir, and Prince Gong will be jumping like a monkey." Wall, so what should I do if I hold my sister as a hostage?"

Xie Liangyu took a look at Xi Fu, a son is a son, what's the point of adding a small character?

Concubine Luo rubbed her brows, "Prince Gong is a member of the Tian family, and the Tian family is always suspicious. If Gong'e is pretending, he can see through it at a glance, so this bait must be done by the palace. As for how to force Prince Gong to go to the reservoir, this point Still need to discuss."

Seeing that Concubine Luo has made up her mind, everyone couldn't persuade her any more, so Bai Ye tightened her sword hilt, and said stubbornly, "Since the princess is putting herself to the test, as the princess's secret guard, the lowly duty must be by the princess' side to protect her safety."

Concubine Luo looked up at him, and saw his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, although she could only see half of his face clearly, but his eyebrows were firm, obviously she made up her mind and would not change.

Then she gave a relieved smile, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then Bai Ye's outfit of hidden guards won't work."

Bai Ye was taken aback for a moment, and when he realized what Concubine Luo meant, his eyes drifted away, but he still said firmly, "The humble job is willing to wear... a palace dress."
