The remaining team will take two or three days to arrive, and Shuojin and the others can only stay in the Xiliang Palace for the time being, but this is Xiliang's territory after all, and Shuojin is still worried that something will go wrong.
After thinking about it, he decided to send his men away. After all, the fewer people here, the better. With his skills, he could completely guarantee that he would escape unscathed, but it would not be good if there were any shortcomings among the brothers.
"There's nothing going on here now. You guys should go back first. It's not safe to leave too many people here."
After arriving in the resting room, Shuojin closed the door. After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he spoke cautiously.
"Pavilion Master, are you really okay here alone?"
His men asked him hurriedly.
"Can't you really see it? Those people were clearly testing our skills just now. It would be too dangerous for everyone to stay here."
"But, we are worried..."
I'm worried that Shuojin will be poisoned!
"It doesn't matter, there are still more than ten days left, and the remaining people will arrive in two or three days. I will go back immediately after handling the matters here." Shuojin interrupted before they finished speaking.
It was his order to kill them, and he would never allow them to stay here.
Those people had no choice but to leave Xiliang and return to Hualing Kingdom according to the order of the Pavilion Master.
"What? Why did you miss this time?"
The Emperor of Xiliang said angrily. He originally wanted to make some small moves and sneak something away from him, but he didn't expect that he didn't even have a chance to get close to him.
"This is a subordinate who has neglected his duty. Your Majesty, please convict me."
"Bei Mingchen, it seems that I really underestimated him!" The Xiliang Emperor said to himself.
"Your Majesty, Bei Mingchen's skills have improved greatly. It feels very different from the last time we fought against him."
The people below reported Bei Mingchen's situation truthfully. If his moves hadn't come as a surprise this time, how could he have missed.
That man never expected that "Bei Mingchen" not only avoided the bowl of soup he had carefully prepared for him, but was also able to catch the bowl firmly.
The whole process was perfect.
"In this case, it seems that I have to think of other ways."
The Emperor of Xiliang leaned on his chair and pondered. It seemed that he could only use extreme measures.
He summoned all the secret guards in the entire palace and set up layers of ambushes around the main hall of the palace.
The guards nearby and the archers in the distance were all ready, just waiting for "Bei Mingchen" to send his "third gift" before they took action. This tone
, he must come out.
When the time comes, give him a trap to catch turtles in. As long as he gives the order, "Bei Mingchen" will be pierced by thousands of arrows and die. Regarding the sudden death of this prince who has always been weak and sick, he only needs to find an excuse to excuse it.
.
"Bei Mingchen" couldn't blame anyone else. If he wanted to blame him, he didn't take them seriously enough. He actually dismissed his subordinates and stayed alone in their palace.
.........The men escorted by Huanqing Pavilion to escort the Xiliang army quickly arrived at Xiliang Kingdom.
However, the palace was so important that so many troops were not allowed to enter at the same time, so Shuojin had no choice but to leave them outside the palace and go to the Xiliang Emperor alone to ask for orders.
"See Your Majesty. Your Majesty, this third gift from the king is a bit grand. Please move on."
The matters discussed before were all trivial matters, and what Shuo Jin was going to say next was the real purpose of his visit this time.
The Emperor of Xiliang sat in the central position, looking at "Bei Mingchen" and feeling a little strange. Last time, this kid looked carefree, but today he became serious and needed to move himself. He couldn't even see through his gourd.
What kind of medicine is sold here?
"Your Majesty, everything is ready and you can take action at any time."
The secret guard next to Emperor Xiliang saw that His Majesty was a little panicked, so he whispered in his ear.
Now their ambush was set up in the palace with three levels inside and three outside. Not even a fly could fly out casually, and the fifth prince did not dare to play any tricks.
"Hold your troops for now. I'll let him quietly. I want to see what he will bring." Emperor Xiliang ordered.
"Then please ask the fifth prince to lead the way." Then he raised his voice and spoke politely to Bei Mingchen.
The group of them then walked outside the palace. The palace door was slowly opened. Shuojin stood there and clapped his hands gently, signaling his men to remove the cloth covering the cages.
His last gift was very grand, it was the surviving Xiliang cavalry!
Looking around, such a long team must have at least a thousand Xiliang warriors.
No wonder, no wonder Bei Mingchen didn't look panicked at all. It turned out that he actually had such a trump card in his hand. The Xiliang Emperor thought silently.
"What do you mean, Fifth Prince?" Emperor Xiliang suppressed his emotions and pretended to be calm as he spoke to him.
With so many Xiliang cavalry still in his hands, the Xiliang Emperor was afraid.
In the current situation, Xiliang Kingdom cannot act rashly. If it accidentally hurts the fifth prince of Hualing Kingdom, it is a small matter, but if it hurts so many warriors of Xiliang Kingdom, what should they do?
"I will return all these soldiers to you."
Shuojin smiled slightly and turned around, looked at the Xiliang Emperor, and said simply.
The Emperor of Xiliang was shocked when he heard his answer. He returned them all? He never expected that the fifth prince of Hualing Kingdom would release those prisoners.
He could no longer maintain a calm mind and be as indifferent as before. He stared at the young man in front of him dumbfounded, his eyes full of doubts, thinking that this was another scheme of the scheming prince.
"Seriously?" Emperor Xiliang asked him doubtfully.
"Of course, I'm not a good person, and I can't afford to support so many people!" Shuo Jin said to him without hesitation, with a bit of arrogance.
Seeing him like this, the Emperor of Xiliang somewhat believed what he said.
However, the Emperor of Xiliang was still surprised that he would make such a choice. You must know that on the battlefield, either you die or I die. This matter is like an agreement. From ancient times to the present, all
All wars end like this.
However, this man did the opposite.
"Your Majesty, please listen to this king's advice. No matter what happens in the war, the common people are innocent. Only if you love your common people can you control this country." Shuo Jin said seriously to the Emperor of Xiliang.
Indeed, those soldiers are the backbone of their families. If they were to die, I don’t know how many families would be broken up and how many people would be displaced.
At this moment, the Emperor of Xiliang admired the man in front of him extremely. This young man really impressed him. He never expected that this young boy who looked like he was only in his early twenties would have such a broad mind.
"I, thank you very much, Fifth Prince, for your support."
The Emperor of Xiliang expressed his heartfelt thanks to Bei Mingchen and bowed deeply to him.
It is unprecedented for an emperor of a generation to salute a prince from a foreign country.
Xiliang, all plans are cancelled.
Bei Mingchen deeply surprised the Xiliang Emperor. His attitude towards him changed 180 degrees. He no longer hated him with gritted teeth, but now admired him very much.
"Your Majesty, can I leave now?" Shuojin asked tentatively, with a hint of youthful teasing in his tone.
"Your Highness, don't you plan to stay here for a while longer?" Emperor Xiliang said politely, this time with full sincerity.
"No, I advise your Majesty to think twice about anything you do in the future, and remember not to play tricks in front of me. I can capture you once, and I can capture you a second time. Your Majesty had better think about this matter, otherwise I can't guarantee that I will
If you will be in such a good mood next time, there is no guarantee that you will have such good luck next time."
Shuojin leaned against his ear and spoke to him softly.
"I really admire His Highness's broad-mindedness. Your Highness is welcome to visit Xiliang Kingdom at any time so that I can fulfill my friendship as a landlord. If there is any need in the future, Your Highness can just ask."
The Emperor of Xiliang patted his shoulder gently as he spoke. These words he said this time were all from his heart.
"Okay!" Shuo Jin agreed readily. "Your Majesty, please remember that I am here to make peace with Your Majesty. I hope that the two countries will not continue to be at war from now on, and that the people will not be implicated in this matter.
.”
The Xiliang Emperor agreed repeatedly, and then respectfully sent "Bei Mingchen" away.
Okay, that's all he has to say. Now that the gifts have been delivered and everything that needs to be said has been said, he has to go back quickly. After all, this trip will take more than ten days.
, he doesn’t have that much time.
It is important to gain power, but more important than cold power is to gain warm hearts.
It is more reliable that the Emperor of Xiliang is willing to make peace with him. Anyway, it is difficult to hide so many Xiliang soldiers with them, let alone manage them.
Rights and everything else are all cold, only the human heart is warm. Since he can have a warm heart, why should he pursue those cold rights?
