599, Victory without force?(1/2)
"Where is the murderer?" Bai Jingrong asked with a gloomy expression.
The guard lowered his head and said, "He is missing and is being traced."
Bai Jingrong said nothing, and the hall was also silent.
After a while, I heard Bai Jingrong say coldly: "Go over and have a look."
"Your Majesty." A man in black walked out of the inner hall and bowed: "My Majesty, the murderer may still be in the palace, so be careful."
No one else showed any surprise at the sudden appearance of a man from the Queen Mother's inner palace, as if they were already used to it.
Bai Jingrong sneered and said, "I want to see who is so bold and dares to act so recklessly in my palace!" After that, he walked out first.
The man in black didn't say anything more and followed silently.
Luo Junyao and Bai Ning looked at each other and quickly followed.
The masters under Bai Jingrong lived in a row of houses behind the Queen Mother's chamber, which was exactly in two completely different directions from where Luo Junyao lived.
Ji Zhan then walked to the side and sat on the empty seat left for himself. A loud snort of disdain came from next to me. Wei Qian's expression changed, and she didn't even look at this person less.
Ji Zhan snorted heavily and said: "Ji Xu still thinks that those who oppose me are the rabble in the Western Regions, but the regent is more powerful than me."
There was silence for a moment outside the small hall.
"At most 100,000 people!" the guard reported.
Everyone's expressions changed.
Ji Zhan was sitting outside the dark tent drinking tea. Yao Zhong was sitting opposite me, with a leisurely expression, as if he was not in A Rong, a foreigner, but in the home where he felt most at ease.
"A Fang." Luo Junyao greeted him with a smile, "Zhang Chuan is dead. You are not afraid at all. Where did he go?"
Sure enough, the news he brought was really shocking.
"I've met my mother before, and I've met Brother Wang."
What's more, I don't have so much free time now to resolve the relationship with Luo Junyao. The most important thing now is the sudden attack of soldiers and horses from Arong Yili.
Wang Cheng turned to look outside the door and asked, "Are you going to check?"
Ji Zhan was not angry, and said fiercely: "Although you have never been on the battlefield, you are still willing to do your part for Brother Wang and the Qi people. My cousin thinks you are good, but who knows my cousin?"
Except when I found out, the knife hadn't reached my heart yet.
But the Qi people are now ten years old. If there is really a war, how can the Qi people be willing to give up the east, where the environment is worse, and go all the way back to the small desert?
But that is not a difficult matter. Ji Xu is now well-known and majestic, and the mother-son fight between him and Luo Junyao makes many people feel satisfied.
"Your Majesty, your army is slightly defeated. The right general is asking for support!" Outside the small hall, the slow footsteps of the guards made people feel inexplicably panicked.
After all, no matter how small your ambition and dignity are, it is worth more than the fear of possible annihilation of your race.
The assassin's matter was finally settled. The palace was in a state of uproar, but not even a hair on the assassin's body was found.
"Report! Your Majesty, the smoke is burning in the west. The people of Yin are coming from the southwest and northwest to Arong. It is expected that they will arrive at the earliest tomorrow evening!"
As usual in court meetings, everyone sat on both sides of the table. His Highness Ji Xu still occupied the low position, and next to me on the left was Luo Junyao.
Wei Qian said: "Brother Wang, I don't have a thousand elite soldiers under my command, so I can add them to the Qi tribe's small army."
Ji Xu frowned slightly, "Why are you here so late?" I sent someone to summon Ji Zhan first. I wanted to have a few words with the brother after the discussion, but I thought Ji Zhan was the last to come.
After all, he is the heir of Zhan Chengwang, but he still doesn't have the same spirit as me.
After decades of fighting life and death with Xiao Sheng, the Qi tribe had already lost four out of ten famous generals, and the remaining young master just wanted to live in peace and contentment.
Wei Qianna said indifferently, Wei Qianna glanced at you sideways and said, "He wants to ask, did I send someone to kill him?"
"How could this happen?!" Ji Xu stood up, with a look of shock and anger on his face.
"Where's Apa? Let me come to see you." After walking out of the room, Luo Junyao looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice.
"Are you kidding me? Let him lead the troops. Does he know which direction to go in?" the middle-aged man sitting next to Ji Zhan said with a warm smile.
"I know, let's go up." Ji Zhan said calmly.
The Qi people are the same as those in the Central Plains, and there is no tolerance limit on the number of guards that nobles and ministers can have. The strong men, slaves and soldiers of each small family of the Qi people are also an important fighting force of the Qi people.
This is a certain uncle of mine. Occasionally, I like the soft-looking Ji Zhan. Ever since I went to Xiaosheng for a protonectomy and came back, I have become even more pleasing to the eye.
"It's no use being afraid now. Where else can you go?" Ji Xu said in a deep voice.
Wei Qian waved her hand and ordered the guards to come in. She glanced at everyone with a serious look and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, have you heard this? They must be planning to flee with their families now. Do they know what to do?"
He was lying on the ground, his face turned to one side with wide eyes, as if he had seen someone or something extremely horrifying.
"Once the news of Qu Fang's defeat reaches Arong, the entire Qi tribe will definitely be in chaos." Yao Zhong looked at the handsome young man opposite and said, "Prince Ji Zhan should have made preparations early."
"That's all." Ji Xu waved his hand impatiently, "Sit down."
"As he wishes."
But the price Ji Xu needs to pay is definitely something I am willing to bear. In the current situation, once Wei Qian's throne is secure, what can Luo Junyao do?
Everyone looked at Ji Zhan with a bit of surprise in their eyes.
"Bastard!" Ji Xu was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Even I was defeated. Are these people really not that powerful?
The guard said: "Your Majesty, the right general...encountered an ambush, and whether he has met the opponent face to face, he hasn't yet...the right general sent someone to ask the king to send troops to support quickly, otherwise I'm afraid it's a trivial matter."
Wei Qian nodded and asked, "Who will we send to lead the troops?"
As soon as the news of Wei Qian's defeat came out, it was like pouring a ladle of water out of a frying pan, and the entire small hall exploded in an instant.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The mother and son who have no Central Plains blood have brought the Qi people to the situation they are in today. If we want to help, it is natural that we can only rely on one mouth.
"so?"
Yao Zhong raised his eyebrows and said: "If we wait for half a month, everything will be bad. But now, the conditions are probably acceptable to Ji Xu. Your Majesty, he has no plans?"
"Is the queen asking you?"
As for why Ji Zhan came to me, it is indeed convenient to tell it behind the scenes at this time.
Wei Qian replied, naturally the relationship between Wei Qian and I is on bad terms.
Everyone exchanged glances with each other, no one just started talking loudly among themselves, and no one took the initiative to speak.
Bai Jingrong was following beside him when he suddenly heard Luo Junyao's voice. He looked up and saw Luo Junyao looking at him.
Ji Zhan was skeptical and changed the topic fiercely, "That person is Ah Rong of the Qi tribe after all. In this battle... Xie Yan may not always win."
"How many people are there?" Ji Xu asked with a hot face and gritted teeth.
Ji Zhan smiled at me, stood up, straightened his clothes and walked inside.
The man in black who was following Bai Jingrong stepped forward and quickly inspected the body. He stood up and walked to Luo Junyao and said loudly: "He was stabbed to death with a dagger at close range. The murderer made a clean move and cut off the heart with one knife."
pulse."
The middle-aged woman was choked by the two brothers and was speechless for a moment. It was quiet outside the small hall for a moment, and then she heard me snort and said: "With all due respect, the king doesn't have many troops to mobilize at the moment."
To support?”
"Qu Fang brought the most elite soldiers of your Qi tribe. It will only be a few days... When did these trash from the Western Regions lose their ability?" If these rabble-rousers from the Western Regions could defeat the Qi tribe's soldiers and horses so easily,
He will also be as young as Da Fugao in front of the Qi people.
Hearing this, Luo Junyao frowned slightly, "Ji Rong, why should I come to him?"
No one could help but glance up at Luo Junyao, who was sitting aside, and saw that your expression was as calm as a mountain. You didn't feel guilty at all for causing the chaos in Qi Clan Wei Qian later.
"Mr. Yao has been with you for so long, does he want to see the expected results?"
Yao Zhong chuckled and said, "You know that Xie Yanhui will win, but you know that Wei Qian and Luo Junyao will definitely lose."
Luo Jun shook his head, "No one will do those things, so why bother him? Let's go."
It must be placed ten years later. At that time, I am afraid that everyone in the palace will not be so excited that they will ask for a battle.
Qu Fang's defeat was a minimal psychological blow to us.
The guards took the order and left. Luo Junyao ordered people to inform Mrs. Jixu about what happened in the palace, and sealed off the entire palace to catch the murderer.
Bai Jingrong nodded and quickly shook his head.
Everyone knows the purpose of Ji Xu calling us here.
"Just say what you want to say."
Wei Qianna quickly said yes.
Ji Zhan smiled loudly in his heart, but there was no trace of relief on his face.
Luo Junyao sighed: "Why would he think that way? You know it too. You hope so."
Wang Cheng looked at you, his eyes deep and silent.
Wei Qianna said: "Look, he seems to have nothing to say."
Mr. Zhang was still lying on the floor of the room, and a pool of blood spread from under him, staining the surrounding ground red.
