The strong wind blew away the water, and the boat slowly approached Fox Nagisa.
Li Xingzai stood on the bow of the boat, and the wind lifted up the skirt of his clothes. Xu Wentian held the pole with one hand and looked ahead with the other. Now the two of them were getting closer and closer to Fox Nagisa.
"Your Majesty, why do you think Nohara Huo must meet with you? Is there any conspiracy involved?" Xu Wentian asked.
"You ask me, how do I know?" Li Xingzai sighed and said, "Old Xu, you are quite sinister. According to your estimation, what conspiracy does Nohara Huo have?"
"This..." Xu Wentian smiled awkwardly: "Since my subordinates have taken refuge in His Majesty, they have been loyal and loyal to His Majesty."
Li Xingzai waved his hand behind him and said, "Let's chat casually."
Xu Wentian thought about it seriously, and Li Xingzai didn't say he was wrong when he said he was sinister. If he compared his feelings with others, he might really understand Nohara Huo's thoughts.
After a long while, Xu Wentian said: "The wolfish ambitions of the Rong clan must not be taken lightly. However, my subordinates cannot guess the conspiracy behind them."
The two parties made an appointment to meet at Fox Nagisa, a place with wide open fields and it was unlikely that there would be any ambush. In this case, one has to wonder what kind of medicine was sold in Nohara Hui's gourd.
"The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge." Li Xingzai said leisurely: "The soldiers will come to block the water and earth. No matter what conspiracy they have, we will know if we go up and take a look."
Li Xingzai is indeed a master he has met before, and his heart has been tempered to the point of being calm. At this moment, the enemy is facing him, and no one knows what is waiting for him ahead, but he is still calm and calm, with no fear on his face.
Xu Wentian secretly admired this magnanimous attitude.
When the boat arrived at Foxuzhu, Xu Wentian used his pennant to prop it up, and the boat came sideways and leaned against the shore.
The two left the boat and went ashore. Xu Wentian walked in front, cutting the reeds with the short knife in his hand to clear the way for Li Xingzai.
After boarding Huzhu, Xu Wentian's heart was lifted. I don't know what will happen today. If there is one mistake, Li Xingzai's life will be lost here. Li Xingzai is the absolute leader of Jiangnan. He
If something goes wrong, Jiangnan's army will fall apart. Nohara Huo will seal the victory of this war in advance.
Unconsciously, he has stepped into the most critical point of this battle.
From Li Xingzai's face, we couldn't tell what he was thinking. In short, his expression was very calm.
Both the Jiangnan Army and the Rong tribe had stepped on Fox Island in advance, and now there was a newly erected pavilion in the center of the island.
Nohara Huo landed on the island before Li Xingzai and was already sitting in the pavilion.
There was one person standing in front of him, who was the escort accompanying him this time, and another person was tied up with five flowers. It was Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi. At this moment, he was languid, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured.
Li Xingzai had long wanted to meet Nohara Huo. He was a legendary figure who could unify the grasslands and spread the flames of war to the empire in a short period of time. Now that the opponent was so close, Li Xingzai could no longer suppress his curiosity.
Nohara Huo turned his back towards Li Xingzai, and saw that he was wearing a dark red robe. It was not too extravagant, but it had a heavyness after being washed away from the prosperity.
Staring at Nohara Huo's back, Li Xingzai stopped and thought to himself: This is the man who stirred up trouble in the world and almost destroyed most of the empire.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Nohara Hui turned around, holding a cup in his hand, not knowing whether it was tea or wine.
Li Xingzai's eyes fell on Nohara Huo's face. He was wearing a hood and the brim of the hat was lowered, but Li Xingzai could still see his appearance clearly.
After a while, Nohara Hui stood up and waved his hand: "Please."
Li Xingzai put his hand to one side: "Please."
When the two met, they neither saluted nor addressed each other. This was the awkward part of their meeting. One of the two now occupies Jiangnan and the other occupies Jiangbei. They are both considered to be the most respected people in the world. Nohara Hui took the throne with his own hands.
It turns out that Li Xingzai inherited the throne from his ancestors.
It is not unreasonable for the king not to see the king. If two people address each other as emperor, it is equivalent to acknowledging the legal status of the other party, and it is also equivalent to admitting that they are illegal.
In the pavilion, Li Xingzai and Nohara Huo were sitting opposite each other, with one person standing behind each.
Xu Wentian was good at one-handed axes, and he was carrying a big ax behind him at the moment. However, the weapon used by the man behind Nohara Hui was also an axe.
Nohara Huo and Li Xingzai hadn't done anything yet, but they looked at each other. This time when Wang met Wang, both parties agreed that they would only need to bring one guard. Li Xingzai's guard was Xu Wentian, while Nohara Huo's guard behind him was Chen Meng. Cha Cha
He is Xu Wentian's apprentice.
After the city of Chang'an was destroyed, Chen Meng, together with the Luo family and his son, defected to the Rong clan. Like a master, there would be a disciple. With Xu Wentian's temperament, it was not surprising that Chen Meng would do such a thing.
When master and disciple met, each was a little embarrassed. However, Nohara Huo and Li Xingzai hadn't said anything yet, and it was hard for them to say anything. They just kept a dark face and pretended not to look at each other.
Li Xingzai and Nohara Huo seemed unaware of what was happening behind them. Nohara Huo waved his hand and said, "Tea or wine?"
Treat guests with tea and friends with wine. Nohara Hui understands this principle, and Li Xingzai also understands it. But, are they guests or friends?
Li Xingzai waved his hand and said: "Wine is too harmful to the body, and tea is difficult to nourish the mind."
The two are neither friends nor guests, they are enemies. Li Xingzai understands this, and Nohara Huo also understands this.
Li Xingzai smiled: "I'm here today for General Ma."
Nohara Huo nodded: "General Ma suffered some injuries, but his life is not in danger."
Li Xingzai clapped his hands and ordered Xu Wentian to untie Ma Mengqi's body. Ma Mengqi was indeed injured, so Nohara Huo dared to bring him over. Otherwise, if he and Xu Wentian teamed up, no matter how many people came, they would have to stay.
.
Ma Mengqi was quite capable, but since he was born, he has suffered in every aspect. This time he was a prisoner again, and he was still conscious, but he was too embarrassed to see anyone, so he had to close his eyes and pretend to be unconscious.
"It's windy on the river, so you can send General Ma to the boat first." Nohara Huo turned back to Chen Meng and said, "Wait for me on the boat."
Xu Wentian asked Li Xingzai with his eyes, and Li Xingzai nodded: "Send General Ma to the ship first."
Chen Meng and Xu Wentian left the pavilion almost at the same time. At this moment, only Li Xingzai and Nohara Huo were left in the center of Fox Nagisa.
The air around them seemed solemn, and neither of them spoke, remaining silent to each other.
After a long while, Nohara Huo finally couldn't help but said, "You really don't recognize who I am?"
As time has passed, their identities have changed, and their appearances have also changed a lot.
It's not strange that Li Xingzai couldn't recognize Nohara Huo. However, with Li Xingzai's chicken thief, how could he not recognize him?
Li Xingzai frowned, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Have I ever met Your Excellency?"
