Chapter 248 Scene 33 Neither Enemy nor Friend 5
Before he even got close to the tent door, Jiang Yan saw his servants were threading a skinned and washed lamb through iron and putting it on a bonfire outside the tent for roasting. When he entered the tent, he found that not only was it paved with gorgeous and exquisite
Wool blankets, charcoal stoves, fire pots, and even incense, fine wine, and exquisite shiny silver dishes and chopsticks have all been arranged neatly.
Soon, a servant poured carefully warmed, steaming wine into the cups for the two of them, and then presented them with thinly sliced, fat and thin mutton, covered in fat. In a trance, it seemed like the two of them were
The king was not at the northern border at all, but in a luxurious palace somewhere in the south.
"Silver can be tested for poison, and Hehan can drink with confidence and eat large pieces of meat. Here, this is Weiliang's famous wine for drunken spring wine, and it is no worse than the Salha from your grassland!"
Luqiu Borong had obviously come prepared and had thought very carefully. However, this made the black-eyed boy feel a little restless. He pushed the silver plate and silver cup with the mutton in front of him away, and the wine in the cup immediately overturned.
On the table, juice flows freely:
"What exactly do you want to say? Please say it quickly and don't make people's appetites."
The woman opposite stopped beating around the bush, cleared her throat and said seriously: "Since you and I are both at the foot of Wuping Mountain today, I think the places we need to go to should not be too far apart -"
"I'm going to look for Chilang and seek justice for the dead. But you may not."
Jiang Yan interrupted the other party's words, seeming quite disgusted with this deliberate approach.
"Is He Han still brooding over the battle at Yujing City?"
Seeing how wary he was, Lu Qiu Borong couldn't help but ask. Unexpectedly, the black-eyed boy suddenly picked up a pair of silver chopsticks on the table and stabbed them hard at the table. There was only a crisp sound, without any sharpness.
The chopsticks were actually driven by his arm strength and penetrated the thick surface of the table:
"I won the next battle in Yujing City! What I despise is that you watched the galloping wolf ravage the entire Changzhou and did nothing to save it, so that my beloved wife died tragically in Yujing City!"
Hearing this, Lu Qiu Borong was suddenly startled, his face that had always been smiling suddenly lost color, and his eyes gradually dimmed.
"You are not the only one who lost your loved one in that earth-shaking chaos..."
Jiang Yan raised his eyebrows and asked provocatively: "So, did you go to save people at that time?"
"I... didn't..."
The woman's face showed deep guilt and heart-wrenching sadness. It can be seen that she really loved the deceased person. However, the expression did not stay on her face for long, and soon it disappeared.
He returned to his usual calmness and indifference.
"With such cold-blooded determination, no wonder he would take advantage of the situation to gain power and occupy the magpie's nest. In your opinion, these are just ordinary things. He is indeed the emperor of Daxin!"
Jiang Yan snorted heavily, his sarcasm was palpable, and he obviously wanted to use words to anger the other party. But Lu Qiu Borong smiled slightly:
"Then according to Da Hehan, what is the best way to deal with the chaos in the world before us?"
The woman said, picking up the wine glass in front of her and drinking it all in one gulp, "Now ferocious beasts are raging, mountains and rivers are broken, and mourners are everywhere. If I don't stand up and command the world, will I just watch it fall apart and fall into hell, with no relief for eternity?!
What's more, our Luqiu family is originally a branch of the Baijiang family. As the saying goes, those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. In this world, only those who fight for the common people of the country can be called true heroes!"
Luqiu Borong's words were so conclusive that even those eloquent ministers at the Yujing court might be moved by his passionate words.
However, the black-eyed boy couldn't listen to this at all:
"How can you call yourself a hero?"
"Why can't I?"
When the woman opposite heard this, she was not angry, but was amused and laughed, "Looking at all the countries in the world, as powerful as Yubei, Ye, Cheng, etc., they are all at the end of the day and have no time to care about themselves. But Ben
Weak people like Yu, Dun, Sui, and Huaiyou are unable to make changes at all! Although the Peng Kingdom holds the Blue Flame, Ying Ren lives in a corner and only wants to be a free prince. Now, I am the only one left.
Wei Liang has the heart and strength to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the world!"
Speaking of this, the eyes of the founding emperor of Daxin actually became a little moist:
"I think of my Luqiu Borong. Since I succeeded Liang Guozuo, I have worked hard and worked hard to govern, and finally won the favorable location and people. Now all the countries in the world are sincerely convinced, and even the people and the heads of Guizhou have high hopes. I should obey the heavens and learn from the emperor Baijiang in those days.
Like this, we have made a contribution that will last forever! And our Luqiu family’s glorious reputation will forever be immortalized in history and be famous for generations to come!”
Lu Qiu Borong was so excited that she stood up and walked slowly to the tent door. She held a glass of wine that had just been filled, but she didn't take a sip. Instead, she raised it above her head and poured the clear wine into the cup.
He stood on the ice in front of him, muttering to himself:
"Please tell my father in heaven to tell my daughter, why are there still people accusing me of my faults?!"
After saying that, she suddenly looked back, but her eyes suddenly became sharp, "Now Dahehan is targeting me everywhere, but can I act openly and aboveboard? I would like to ask, since you are planning to pay tribute to the deceased on behalf of the deceased during your trip,
The Wolf Man seeks justice, but when you killed those Onma tribesmen, did you ever feel weak and hesitant? Who should they seek justice from?!"
Jiang Yan did not expect that the other party would actually draw the fire to himself. Although his tone was still tough, he was still defeated in terms of momentum:
"How can these two be compared? From the moment when Qihexu led the Onma tribe and colluded with the demons to raise wolves and cause harm to the grassland, we can no longer be regarded as grassland people! There are some things that we cannot control at all..."
"He Han is right. There are many things in the world that we cannot control at all. But there is one thing that we can control right now. Did you know that the wolf man just led his people across the Wuping Mountains the day before yesterday? What if?
My guess is correct, the other party has traveled thousands of miles to enter the ghost state to find the strength of the ancestors!"
Seeing that the other party was finally willing to listen to him, Lu Qiu Borong immediately brought the topic back to the present. Hearing this, the young He Han felt a thump in his heart:
"The power of the ancestors? Where did you hear about it?"
The woman opposite let out a long sigh: "I asked this from a mysterious guest before. Unfortunately, I had the opportunity to capture him and ask for more secrets. However, the man acted very carefully and escaped after all.
Okay. But Yamato is so determined to follow the wolf monster. Could it be that he has the same suspicion as me that there may be some connection between the two people? Or maybe he already knows his true identity?"
The black-eyed boy shook his head and said:
"I only know that Qihexu and Muhe all call that wolf man Mr. Kun."
Unexpectedly, Luqiu Borong clapped his hands fiercely as soon as he said these words, and his tone became excited: "It is indeed him! Ever since the mysterious guest who revealed the power of the ancestors asked for an audience with Jingshu, I felt that he had evil intentions. It turned out that he was the demon who was trying to kill the wolf!"
After saying that, the empress turned back to enter the tent, looked into Jiang Yan's eyes solemnly and said:
"Mr. Kun deliberately set up this situation. If he is allowed to seize the power of the ancestors first, it will not be a good thing for you, me, and the entire world. Now that you and I are both here for him, Whether it's revenge or seeking the truth, we should be considered like-minded! I am the first female emperor in the history of the Great Ascension Dynasty, and you are the first Nanhe Han in the grassland. The only two heroes in the world, We shouldn’t be fighting here!”
As Lu Qiu Borong spoke, he actually lifted up the wine glass that Jiang Yan had knocked over on the table with his own hands, and filled it up with his own hands, "I don't know if He Han is willing to make an agreement with me?"
Jiang Yan looked into the opponent's eyes, and then looked sideways outside the tent - at the moment, the soldier Guan Ning in silver armor and silver helmet was still standing neatly at a distance on one side of the tent, but he was already the same as Chi Yan under his command. The army started talking, changing from the previous tense situation.
This made him finally make up his mind and nodded: "You - tell me."
Lu Qiu Borong's face showed joy, and he immediately raised his hands and bowed:
"I, please kindly ask Dahehan to withdraw his troops and go back to your Yanluo Plain. I swear on the Daxin Sheji that I am willing to have eternal friendship with all the tribes in Shuobei, and I will never engage in war or conquest without permission."
"It turns out that you have spent so much words and energy just to persuade me to withdraw my troops. After all, you still plan to take the power of the ancestors as your own. I'm sorry, but I can't agree to this. For the sake of my homeland and close friends, and for the sake of Those people on the prairie!”
Yan Jiang put down the wine glass that he had just raised to his mouth. The woman opposite could not help but frown, as if she could not figure out what the young man with eyes as deep as the sea was thinking in his mind:
"Your accent - it seems that you are from Changzhou. I am suddenly curious. What is the reason that makes you not hesitate to share the same hatred with these grassland people who have been enemies for generations, and in turn turn against your own motherland?"
"The reason is very simple. I will be kind to anyone who is kind to me. I will not be able to comply with the order of withdrawing troops."
"Then is it possible that I did not entertain you well today? What do you want in exchange?"
Before the black-eyed boy finished speaking, Lu Qiu Borong's expression changed, and he slapped the table hard. Upon hearing the signal he sent, the carpet in the big tent suddenly opened, and all the clothes came out from underneath. Six armed Guan Ning warriors immediately surrounded the young Hehan.
It turned out that where they were to stand, a deep pit had been dug in advance. It was covered with wooden boards and piled with snow and ice. In just a moment, all the drinks and food piled on the table were knocked over to the ground. .
"Humph, it is indeed a trap! Are you begging me or threatening me?! In this case, I guarantee that no one in this tent today will live to see the sun tomorrow!"
Facing the siege, Jiang Yan was not afraid at all. After pulling out Xiao Tianmo, he did not intend to defend, but instead put on an offensive posture. The light shining from his eyes was like an angry black dragon.
"How brave, who ordered you to set up an ambush here?!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Qiu Borong was so angry that he actually stepped forward and blocked the six soldiers with his arms, "This person in the tent is an honored guest from the grassland that I invited. If anyone dares to do anything without permission today,
, beheaded!"
"Stop acting in front of me. Whether it was you who set up this situation today or not, it doesn't matter anymore!"
The trust that the two parties had just established was destroyed in an instant. No matter how the other party tried to persuade him, the black-eyed boy could no longer listen.
However, an incredible scene happened. Emperor Daxin suddenly retreated to Young Hehan, then personally took the long knife from his hand and placed it on his neck:
"You can escort me out of the tent now. I want to see who is the traitor and traitor who dares to force you to kill the king in full view of the public!"
"It is better to obey orders than to be respectful!"
Jiang Yan, however, showed no mercy and pulled the empress viciously and walked backwards out of the tent.
Upon seeing this, the Red Flame Army and Guan Ning warriors, who had been chatting happily, immediately dispersed on both sides with a crash. Hostility appeared on each other's faces again, and they drew their weapons to confront each other.
Jiang Yan's throat twitched, and he was about to say something, when he saw the six soldiers on the opposite side suddenly rushed forward with their swords, and they actually struck Lu Qiu Borong's vitals!
Young Hehan hesitated for a moment, but he still waved his sword to block the killing blow for the hostage in his hand. He then realized that the soldiers on the opposite side were not just using a false shot, but were trying their best to take the life of the empress.
Only then did he finally believe that the Emperor Daxin in front of him was not a despicable villain with no bottom line, as the rumors said.
This unexpected turn of events also stunned the sergeants on both sides present. Then Jiang Yan loosened his hand around the woman's throat, protected her behind his back, and whistled at the stunned Red Flame Army:
That was the whistle for the grassland people to order an attack. Upon receiving the order, more than a hundred red-armored cavalry immediately spread their hooves and rushed forward.
Seeing this situation, the six soldiers in the tent who wanted to assassinate also understood that it would be difficult for them to capture the emperor for a while, and they immediately wanted to escape. However, the Chi Yan army was fast, and before the six people could run far away, they were already there.
He was chopped to the ground. However, he did not expect that in full view of the public, the assassin's corpse gradually turned into several bloodless, horrifying shapes covered with fish scales.
"These monsters - are they specially sent by Mr. Kun to infiltrate the soldiers? What a terrifying witchcraft!"
Emperor Daxin exclaimed on the spot. Young Hehan and the Red Flame Army on the side were also shocked by the scene in front of them, and their expressions changed drastically.
Seeing the Red Flame Army kill their comrades, although the hundreds of soldiers present did not understand the cause and effect of the matter, they still became excited and formed a formation to step forward to protect them. Unexpectedly, they heard Lu Qiu Borong, who had become a hostage, shout loudly:
"All soldiers must obey orders and must not harm Yamato Han at all! If anyone disobeys, the Nine Clan will be executed!"
Having said that, the empress suppressed the uncontrollable fear in her heart, raised her trembling right hand to touch her chest, bowed slightly, and gave a standard prairie salute to Jiang Yan and the Red Flame Army:
"The grace of saving lives should be repaid with a spring of water. If He Han asks for anything, I will do my best."
The young man's frowning brows finally relaxed, and he raised his hands in a high-level fist-cup salute:
"The emperor's kindness today will be kept in mind by Yan Zihui. However, I know that if I ask you to withdraw our troops, it will be impossible just like you asked me to withdraw our troops before. Why don't we just let us go back and we can do it without any hindrance."
yes."
Luqiu Borong did not expect that the other party would make such an extremely simple request, and he couldn't help but be deeply moved:
"Although I cannot promise to withdraw our troops, I can promise that if we meet again on the battlefield in the future, I will lead my troops to retreat ten miles and never fight against you!"
After Jiang Yan heard this, he took the rein of the horse handed over by the Red Flame Army beside him, jumped up and turned over Wu Chen, and looked back with a smile: "Please remember the promise today. But I hope we will never meet again in the future."
See you."
Unexpectedly, Emperor Da Xin stretched out his hand and grabbed his armor: "Da He Han, wait a minute, don't speak so absolutely. Come, get some wine and meat, and ask Da He Han to take it back!"
The black-eyed boy couldn't help but look puzzled: "Why is this?"
Lu Qiu Borong smiled:
"The climate in Guizhou is extremely harsh, and I don't know what difficulties and obstacles I will encounter on the road ahead. Now that I have the Wanzhou Chamber of Commerce to provide financial assistance, I have enough supplies and equipment, and the lunch box is a meeting gift for Dahehan. If it hadn't been for so many changes,
Maybe you and I can become sympathetic friends!"

You’ve all seen this, why don’t you pay attention quickly?
