Chapter 76: The world is at war (5)
Chapter 76: The world is fighting (5)
Baiyue does not think that the situation cannot be changed.
The alliance between Zheng and Chu is inevitable, but if the Qi State can be successfully destroyed, or the Qi State can be killed, and the attack of Zheng and Chu State can be resisted for a while, then the war will be able to be halted. At that time, the weak Qi State can be easily destroyed after several years of cultivation and rest. Zheng and Chu are definitely not a country that can be defeated in just a short time.
Many Black Wolf King and the civil and military officials of Zhou State were celebrating and discussing the rewards. After winning the battle, they should hope to receive generous rewards.
When Baiyue thought about this, she couldn't help but sigh. She looked at Yue Fei in the bucket, and the latter said, "Are you the Princess of the Moon?"
"No," Baiyue replied, and took two sips of tea before saying, "You said, how many cities are King Zheng willing to exchange for you?"
Yue Fei said coldly, "Don't dream in the daytime, King Zheng will never agree to such a request."
"What's the point of trying?" After Baiyue said that, she laughed and said, "I think King Zheng is willing to exchange you for at least five hundred cities."
"Imagination!" Yue Fei disagreed with it. He believed that King Zheng had no friendship and had only had many heroic officials and generals for the sake of the stability of the royal power. He even failed to let the Ling family, which had conquered half of Zheng's country. How could he give up five hundred cities for her?
"What if it does?" He stood up with a long body in the moonlight and said leisurely, "If King Zheng really agreed to the exchange, would you be grateful to me?"
"Hmph." Yue Fei looked at him disdainfully and felt that it was impossible.
"If King Zheng was a wise king, of course he would not agree. Unfortunately, he was a confused king. Therefore, it should not be strange if a confused king did a confused thing."
At this moment, the spring envoy rushed over and reported that "Qi Yue Fei, Tian Jizi led 300,000 Shenhun Army to the north, saying that he had been ordered by the emperor. Xing Feifei sent a letter to her, saying that the emperor had sent a letter to her to transfer 300,000 troops to the east gate of the Shenhun Kingdom."
"Tianjizi held that you have the command arrow?" Baiyue asked with a grinning eyebrows. Chunzhi quickly answered "Yes." Then, he asked carefully, "Yes, Concubine Yue really doesn't know?"
He pondered for a while without making any sound. He looked at Yue Fei in the bucket and led the Chun-selves out. After walking away, he said, "No wonder the king wants to use Tianjizi. It seems that he wants to use Tianjizi to govern the Zhou Kingdom in the north. It is clearly because he wants to use Tianjizi to punish the military and civilians in the north to escape with Tianjizi's torture. The king is afraid that there will be changes in the north, so he transferred the troops and horses of the old Zhou Dynasty and sent the soul army to the old Zhou."
Chunzhi asked in confusion, "But the situation in the north has been settled. If the Star Concubine is in charge of a major event, what are you afraid of?"
The moon suddenly stood firm, looking at the spring, saying, "We are afraid of it!"
"This, this..." Chunqiu was stunned and couldn't figure it out at all. "The princess and the lord have always been in the same heart, how could the lord be so cautious?"
"He was just afraid that the soldiers of our leaders from Beidi and Old Zhou would advocate a ceasefire, so my words just now made him feel worried."
Seeing that Bai Yue's face changed, Chun'er hurriedly asked carefully, "What should we do?"
"Let's talk about it if you destroy Qi. He told Xingfei to be responsible for dispatching the old Zhou soldiers and horses to let me know his intentions and can do nothing at this moment."
"But everyone thought that the situation would be decided after destroying Qi, and they could take a break. If they barely fight, the generals were exhausted..."
"Okay, don't say anything that affects the morale of the army from today. Otherwise, if the Lord wants to kill you, I may not be able to save you."
Baiyue said firmly, and the Chunzhi quickly agreed in a low voice, unable to understand Baiyue’s current calculations.
Speaking of which, Zhao Ji dressed up in disguise and rushed to Zhengdu with her portraits all the way. She asked for directions. Finally, she found Mrs. Li's manor outside the city and knocked on the door to ask for a meeting.
Unexpectedly, the butler who opened the door looked at her a few times and said, "Mrs. is not here."
Just as he was about to close the door, Zhao Ji hurriedly said, "Please report to Mrs. Li, saying that he is an old friend of Shenhun Mountain."
The butler paused, said a word to her wait, and then went in again.
After a while, he came out and opened the door again. "Please come in."
Zhao Ji followed the housekeeper all the way and found that the manor looked ordinary on the outside but occupied a large area. Unexpectedly, the construction inside was very complicated. It should be rich and luxurious on the inside, and the simplicity on the inside was fresh and pleasant. Only then did he realize that the lady Li in Shenhun Mountain looked ordinary on the outside, and it turned out to be so rich.
When meeting Mrs. Li in the study, Zhao Ji shouted happily, "Zhao Ji pays homage to the immortal."
Mrs. Li couldn't help laughing, and brought tea to someone, pulled Zhao Ji to sit down and talk.
When he was in Shenhun Mountain and Bu Jingxian was at the bottom of Qifu Cliff, Zhao Ji was alone with her and often called her an immortal.
"What is the urgent matter of Beijun sending you, a confidant general, to Zhengdu at this time?"
Zhao Ji hurriedly took out the portrait from her arms and spread it out, "To ask her wife to help find someone."
Unexpectedly, when Mrs. Li saw the portrait, her face changed. She looked at it in a daze for a while. Zhao Ji found something strange and turned a deaf ear to her even shouting several times.
Mrs. Li couldn't help but pick up the portrait and looked at it carefully. After a while, tears suddenly fell from her eyes.
Zhao Ji knew that Mrs. Li must know the woman in the painting, and would not be just a common friend, so she couldn't help but feel sad. Mrs. Li was so sad that eight out of ten women in the painting were no longer in the world.
"Where did this painting come from?" When Mrs. Li put down the painting, she wiped her tears and asked herself.
"The painting by the Lord only tells you to send it to Mrs. Li no matter what, and ask Mrs. Li to help inquire about this person."
Zhao Ji answered, looking at Mrs. Li and the woman in the painting. The more she looked, the more she felt that her facial contours and facial features were very similar. However, Mrs. Li had been away for many years, with rough, black and yellow skin and some wrinkles. The woman in the painting was well maintained and youthful and beautiful. If she had not compared this way, she would not have noticed it for a while.
‘Is it Mrs. Li’s sister?’
"Why did Beijun look for this person? Why did he paint this portrait?"
"Zhao Ji really doesn't know."
Mrs. Li was silent for a while and suddenly said, "Let's stay for dinner. When it's dark, I'll take you back. I know the woman in the painting, but I just want to tell Beijun in person."
"Thank you, Immortal!" Zhao Ji was happy and couldn't help but call out this title. Then he said, "But you may be in Qi at this moment, so you have to work hard on Mrs. Li."
"Why are you working hard? I am an immortal, I know the magic method." Mrs. Li laughed and joked with Zhao Ji. After laughing softly, a faint sadness appeared in her eyebrows.
In the afternoon of that day, Zhao Ji visited Mrs. Li's mansion for half a day, and saw many treasures that had never been heard of in the past. She was also attracted by the magical treasures collected in Mrs. Li's arsenal. She also saw Bu Jingxian snatching the flying umbrella from Wu Fei's hand.
"Zhao Ji has seen this umbrella."
