Green bricks and dark tiles, flowers bloom on the paths, perfuming her clothes; vermilion gates and purple halls, she plucks stars with her bare hands, adorned in a rainbow.
Chapter 347: Taking Oneself as Hostage
"She actually came..."
Jun Yao, standing on one side of the city wall, watched through the telescope coldly as the hot air balloon Su Shengsheng was riding on slowly descended.
When the people trapped in the city heard the news from the radio, they immediately stopped worrying and started crying.
The Jun family said that the Qilin Army tragedy was also caused by the people of Yunzhou.
Even if the Qilin Army rescues them, they will not endanger themselves for them.
It was even more impossible to push Princess Xuanming out to block them.
Because the people of Yunzhou were also involved in the bloody incident that day.
But from the broadcast broadcast from high altitude, they finally realized that this was just the instigation of the Jun family.
Even if the Qilin Army was stationed between the two states, even if they only attacked from the outside.
But the Qilin Army did not harm the civilians.
Instead, the Jun family put swords and spears against their backs, forcing them to face off against the Qilin army's swords.
If they don't obey, they will die at the hands of those vicious criminals.
But now Princess Xuanming has fulfilled her promise and joined the Northern Rong army...
She could have ignored their life and death.
Because she is a princess and a woman.
But she still went at this critical moment...
This cheered up the people of Yunzhou, who were originally afraid of the criminals.
A woman took out the electric baton distributed to female workers in the textile factory and, under the cover of her family, attacked the criminal who had shown some signs of letdown.
Driven by a small number of people, more and more people joined in.
This gave the Qilin Army, which originally lacked time to rescue, a sudden opportunity to fight back.
A group of hot air balloons with fat chirp patterns formed a circle and moved towards Yunzhou.
Anyone who came close was shot down.
Yunzhou's Qilin Army will not retreat without a fight.
Those coming out from the inside must be enemy troops.
Even if he is not, he is still a deserter.
Anyway, they can also parachute to save themselves, so there is no need to worry about advancing quickly to Yunzhou.
Unfortunately, Su Shengsheng could not receive the news of the people's resistance in time.
I can only follow the plan and join the Beirong soldiers.
But Jun Yao's goal had been achieved. The moment she appeared, she allowed chaos to break out in the city.
The common people fought against the criminals on the list, and the Qilin Army, with the help of internal and external cooperation, gradually took control of the situation.
But Jun Yao only stopped doing all this the moment she was sure that Su Shengsheng's hot air balloon had landed.
After Su Shengsheng went to the appointment alone, countless Beirong soldiers surrounded her like a tide.
It was as if she had three heads and six arms, and could fly by sticking her arms.
This was the first time that the Northern Rong soldiers had close contact with the Princess Xuanming, who was rumored to have made even their emperor embarrassed.
She looked like a woman who would fall down at the slightest gust of wind.
Her bulging belly made her power even less powerful.
"Caught? Get out of the way, let me take a good look at what kind of woman she is."
A male general, breathing heavily and wearing half animal skin, rudely pushed away the onlookers.
Su Shengsheng raised her eyebrows and looked at him, her eyes showing surprise.
It turned out to be the most wanted criminal, General Jiagu.
The man rushed in front of him and showed a look of disgust after just one glance.
"Are you Princess Xuanming?"
His eyes were filled with disbelief, as if she should look like him, more ferocious, to match the image in his mind.
"Are you General Jiagu?" Su Shengsheng asked instead of answering.
The man seemed to have never been confronted by a woman before, and his expression immediately fell. "How dare you hang up my portrait? You've made me a laughing stock to the world. I'll skin you alive this time."
But before he could rush to Su Shengsheng with a muffled voice, he was stopped by someone, "General, His Majesty the Emperor is still waiting to see her."
With such a small body, if it gets kicked, it will die.
That would be a waste of His Majesty the Emperor's efforts to capture this man.
Su Shengsheng's eyes moved.
Emperor of Beirong?
Is he here?
The doubts that Su Shengsheng had been having in her mind were suddenly touched upon.
She always thought that it was Zong Zheng Ruijin who betrayed the Qilin Army and that the Jun family was in collusion with Zong Zheng Ruijin.
But now it seems that this is the real destination.
But before she could think about it, the person who tried to stop him from getting close was slapped away by General Jiagu.
"This woman has completely humiliated me. If I don't teach her a lesson, I won't be able to quell my hatred."
The person he lifted up had a purple face, simply because Jiagu had used all his strength.
He was about to go forward when he was stopped by the Chang tribe leader who was watching the excitement nearby. He slowly cut off a piece of beef with the short knife in his hand and said, "Don't worry, he will spare her life."
Hiding under the snow-capped peaks, I was almost frozen silly.
If you don’t warm up the atmosphere, will they still obey your orders?
Looking at General Jiagu who was walking towards him, shaking the ground, Su Shengsheng lifted her eyelids helplessly.
You can talk to those who have brains, but with those who don't, the only solution is force.
It’s a pity that she didn’t know it was him.
I don't know if the Northern Rong Emperor's target is her...
As Jiagu flexed his wrist and raised the corners of his thick lips in a mocking manner, Su Shengsheng slowly raised his hand.
Everyone thought that she was reacting instinctively and wanted to resist the harm.
But they were all disappointed.
With a deafening noise, the general, who was as strong as an ox and had no rivals on the grassland, fell to the ground with a bang.
There was no defense, no preparation...
He just stood there straight, as if hit by something, and then fell down with his eyes wide open.
This scene caught everyone off guard.
This also made Duke Ningguo, who had been paying attention to the situation here, and Jun Yao, who was standing in Yunzhou, look very serious.
The Northern Rong soldiers instantly moved from the bloody hole on General Jiagu's forehead to the face of Princess Xuanming, who remained expressionless.
What just happened?
How come General Jiagu died just by her raising her hand?
The beef in the hand of the Chang tribe leader, who had been so arrogant before, no longer tasted delicious.
Looking at the expressionless woman, she casually pointed the sharp weapon that killed Jiagu at his head.
A look of horror flashed across his eyes for a moment.
Even if ten people attacked together, they might not be able to seduce the general, but she killed him while chatting and laughing.
Anyone would be terrified. How on earth did she do it?
If she can be so terrifying alone, what about the entire Qilin Army?
"Do you want to negotiate now? Or go to see the King of Hell with him?"
The voice was as weak as a chick's, but it made his hair stand on end.
The Chang tribe leader asked in a trembling voice, "What negotiations?"
He didn't dare to ask any questions without negotiating.
Because even he couldn't understand why Jiagu died just by twitching.
Su Shengsheng slowly curled her lips, "If we negotiate, we can all survive. If we don't negotiate, we'll all go together."
The leader of the Chang tribe turned his eyes slightly, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
He seemed to think that Su Shengsheng only had two hands and could not be killed at all.
Su Shengsheng saw him move to the back of the crowd and asked without looking away, "Is that General Wendihan?"
The person who answered her was dead the next moment. Just as Wendihan had a bad feeling and was backing away from the people, another deafening sound rang out.
The shock of a crashing fall.
Everyone glanced at his horrified face, and their pupils shrank suddenly.
