"Ah Rong?" Bai Jingrong raised her eyebrows slightly and said with great interest: "My taste is indeed good, Chu Chuke is really very popular."
Playing with the small porcelain bottle in his hand, Bai Jingrong asked: "What did Ah Rong ask you to do? Give me this medicine? What benefits did he promise you?"
Luo Junyao shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no. Your Highness Ji Rong said... let me try to get Mr. Qu to take this. He said that he would not hurt the empress."
"A Fang?" Bai Jingrong frowned slightly, "He wants to kill A Fang?"
"He said...it won't poison people, it will only make Mr. Qu temporarily unable to move." Luo Junyao said carefully: "His Royal Highness Ji Rong also said that as long as I do it, he will send me to the Central Plains and give me a lifetime to spend."
Endless money."
Bai Jingrong was not angry, looked at her with a smile and said softly: "Then why did Chu Chu tell me? Don't you want to go to the Central Plains?"
Luo Junyao didn't say anything, just shook his head vigorously.
Bai Jingrong looked at her, and after an unknown amount of time, he sighed softly and said, "What a silly girl."
"Your Majesty..." Luo Junyao raised his head and said cautiously: "I... I don't want to betray your Majesty, but Your Highness Ji Rong..."
Bai Jingrong thought for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "Don't be afraid. He doesn't dare to do anything to you while I'm here. Just treat this matter as if you haven't said anything about it before."
After saying that, Bai Jingrong put the medicine bottle in his hand back in front of Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao raised his head in surprise, his face full of confusion.
"Mother, I..."
Bai Jingrong said: "Since it won't hurt A Fang, it doesn't matter. You keep it for now, and I'll tell you what to do later."
Luo Junyao nodded quickly, and then carefully stuffed the small medicine bottle back into his bag.
There was a hint of caution in Bai Jingrong's lowered eyes that Bai Jingrong didn't see.
Bai Jingrong is really doubting Qufang.
It was very quiet inside the tent, but the noise outside was getting louder and louder.
Luo Junyao looked up at Bai Jingrong with some uneasiness. Bai Jingrong drank tea calmly, "There are only those Bai family troops in the royal city. Even if they all rebel, they cannot be the opponents of the Qi tribe defenders. There is no need to worry. What's more, not all of them may be there."
You've rebelled."
"That's what the Queen said."
After all, Bai Jingrong has been leading the Bai family army for decades. Although the internal sentiment of the Bai family army has been divided over the years, there are always people who are loyal to Bai Jingrong.
There are also those who have taken refuge with Ji Zhan, and it is impossible for them to change their stance just because two generals died.
Repeated villains are not welcome wherever they go.
Sure enough, after Luo Junyao sat with Bai Jingrong in the tent for half an hour, the noise in the distance gradually died down.
"Your Majesty." A middle-aged man came in and bowed respectfully.
Bai Jingrong put down the teacup and asked, "How's it going?"
The man said: "I'd like to inform you that the rebels have been driven out of the palace by General Ji Xu. Those rebels wanted to break out of the palace and fought with the defenders of the palace near the camp, causing quite a stir."
"Where are the rebels?" Bai Jingrong said solemnly.
"Wu Jun led about 10,000 people under his command, and they have rushed out of the imperial city. Some of them... have surrendered to the king."
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "In addition to some of the people who rebelled against Wu Jun, there are about two to three thousand people under General Wu Ye who are waiting to be dealt with by the empress."
When Wu Ye was mentioned, Bai Jingrong's face became a little ugly. He slapped his palms on the table and said coldly: "What's going on with Wu Ye? Have you found out?"
The middle-aged man lowered his head and said, "Go back to your Majesty, we found some letters in Wuye's mansion between him and the Dayin people."
"So, Wu Jun and his people defected out of the royal city and went to join the Dayin people?" Bai Jingrong asked.
"It's not impossible." The middle-aged man said: "Although Wu Jun brought more than 10,000 people, he had no food supplies. Without support, he would not be able to survive in the desert for a long time. The royal city is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. Dasheng
It is impossible for people to provide any support to Wu Jun, but it is Dayin people..."
Dayin was not far from the royal city of the Qi people, and King Chaqin was so ambitious that he was eyeing the Qi people's sphere of influence.
Speaking of King Chaqin, Bai Jingrong's face became more and more gloomy.
She has played with men in her hands all her life, but this time she suffered a big loss at the hands of King Chachin.
This not only damaged her face, but also caused a big blow to Bai Jingrong's psychology.
It was only now that she really began to wonder, wasn't she old? Because her appearance was not what it used to be, that's why she couldn't control King Chachin.
"Where is King Chachin now?"
The middle-aged man said: "I forgive you, I don't know."
"Go and check! If you find any trace of him, shoot him without mercy!" Bai Jingrong said coldly.
The humiliation brought to her by King Chachin can only be washed away with his blood and life.
"Yes, empress."
The middle-aged man also talked about the current situation in the royal city. Ji Xu had already taken back the palace, and they would soon return to the palace.
However, due to an unexpected incident last night, all Bai Jingrong's arrangements were disrupted. No one can say what the situation will be like after returning to the palace.
Bai Jingrong thought of her two disobedient sons, and a sharp edge flashed in her eyes: She must not lose the power in her hands!
After the middle-aged man stepped back, Bai Jingrong looked at Luo Junyao who was sitting in a daze and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Luo Junyao seemed to have just come back to his senses. He hesitated and said, "Empress, do we really want to go back to the palace?" Bai Jingrong looked at her with a smile, "Afraid?"
Luo Jun shook his head.
Bai Jingrong said: "Don't be afraid. You have to remember one thing. As long as a person is alive, nothing is impossible. What's more, do you think Ji Zhan and Ji Rong will kill me?"
Luo Junyao shook his head quickly, "Your Majesty is the mother of the King and Prince Ji Rong, how could they..."
Bai Jingrong smiled and said, "Yes, they won't kill me, so don't be afraid."
Of course they won't kill her, but not because she is their mother.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! More than ten miles away from the royal city of the Qi people, a war has just ended.
Outside the Royal City Oasis is a large expanse of Gobi, and beyond that, the end of the sky in the distance is full of yellow sand.
The wind carrying yellow sand blew from the northeast, seeming to take away the smell of blood that filled the air.
Xie Yan stood next to a huge stone and looked ahead.
Not far away was the place where the Qi defenders were stationed. The defenders, who had just experienced a bloody battle, quickly rebuilt their defense line and looked as if they were indestructible.
"No wonder the Qi people have been able to dominate the Western Regions for decades. They are really brave." King Chaqin came over from behind with his people. He still had some minor scars on his body. It was obvious that he had just fought a battle himself.
Seeing Xie Yan dressed in black and still looking neat and spotless, King Chaqin rarely showed a slightly jealous expression.
"I've long heard that the regent of Dasheng has incredible martial arts skills, but it's a pity that I haven't been able to see it in person." Naturally, Xie Yan didn't need to take action in person for this kind of trivial temptation.
But even if Xie Yan doesn't take action, several people around him are still brave and good at fighting.
As far as he knew, Xie Yan did not bring any generals who were good at fighting this time, and the few who came with him were just guards.
But these people should not be underestimated either.
King Chachin did not have much wariness or hostility towards this.
If it was Dayin in the past, he would naturally regard a person like Xie Yan as his lifelong enemy, but for the current King Chaqin, Xie Yan is not his enemy, at least not the enemy in front of him.
Nowadays, Dayin is just content in the extreme west. It can't even sweep across the desert to unify the Western Region. What grudges can it have with Dasheng, which is thousands of miles away?
On the contrary, they are now the most solid and reliable allies.
Because they all have a common enemy - the Qi people.
Xie Yan said calmly: "If King Chaqin is interested, you can have a discussion."
King Chaqin thought for a moment and shook his head decisively to express his refusal.
He doesn't want to ask for trouble.
"The regent really wants to wait for the Qi people's royal city to send reinforcements?" King Chaqin asked: "Why not directly defeat the Qi people's defense line, and then you will send your troops to attack the Qi people's royal city. Wouldn't it be great?"
Xie Yan said: "Although the Qi people don't have many soldiers and horses now, there are still hundreds of thousands of people wandering around the royal city and nearby areas. King Chaqin should know that the Qi people are all soldiers. If they are pushed into a hurry,
I have only 100,000 troops from the Western Regions under my command, and King Chaqin has only 30,000 troops, so he may not be their opponent."
King Chaqin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, are you going to waste time with them? But Your Majesty, please don't forget that you and I have come from afar, and I'm afraid the food and grass won't last long."
Xie Yan nodded and said: "Yes, so the outcome depends on when King Chaqin's subsequent troops will arrive. Could it be that King Chaqin thinks that you want to annex the entire Qi tribe with just 30,000 troops?"
King Chaqin smiled, looked at Xie Yan and said, "Compared to the regent who has nothing to show for his actions, I am still inferior."
After all, he sent 30,000 troops and horses. Except for a very small number of Dasheng's elite troops, Xie Yan's troops and horses were almost all recruited from various countries in the Western Regions. And once the Qi people were really wiped out, all the countries in the Western Regions would
I'm afraid more of them will be invested in Dasheng.
This made King Chaqin feel a little unhappy.
Xie Yan did not argue with him, "I am not the one who wants the royal court of the Qi clan." The royal court of the Qi clan is too far away from Dasheng, and Dasheng cannot effectively control it in a short period of time.
King Chaqin naturally understood this truth. If he spent all his efforts to conquer the Qi clan's royal court but ended up returning to Dasheng, he might as well keep the Qi clan.
It is much easier to compete against Ji Zhan than against Xie Yan.
"Okay, Prince Regent, don't worry, my troops will arrive within seven days."
Xie Yan nodded slightly without comment.
The shadow behind him quickly stepped forward, stood in front of Xie Yan and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, a message has come from the princess in the palace."
Xie Yan said sorry to King Chaqin, then turned around and left with Duoying.
King Chachin, who was left alone, didn't care, but touched his chin and thought with interest.
Did Xie Yan actually leave his princess in the Qi Clan’s royal city?
Speaking of General Luo's beloved daughter, the regent princess of Dasheng, she seems to be a wonderful person as well.
