Chapter 510 That's another price.
"I swear to follow Your Highness till death! I only listen to Your Highness, no one else exists!"
His voice was like a bell, which made Xiao Lingyu forget what he wanted to say.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't remember it. Xiao Lingyu said a few "OK" perfunctorily and let the person go out.
What exactly did he want to say just now?
Xiao Lingyu stood there for a while, but in the end he still couldn't remember it, and sighed lightly.
It's really his blessing to have these subordinates!
...
On the other side, after listening to Uncle Zhang's entire plan, Xiao Yanli hesitated.
"How many years have you buried this chess piece?"
"Since I followed Your Highness, I knew that the prince is definitely the biggest obstacle. It's not a rainy day, but just to be prepared."
Uncle Zhang narrated calmly.
Xiao Yanli looked at him sideways, without saying much, just said: "I'll think about it."
...
Nanlong military tent.
Casas excitedly relayed the words of the three people to Jiang Zhiyu, and coordinated with body movements.
Jiang Wenjing couldn't help laughing twice, and was chased out by Casas. He was allowed to come in after he finished speaking.
Hu Yue sat in her seat, her long hair covering her face, and her expression could not be seen.
"They are right," Hu Yue suddenly spoke after a moment of silence.
Xiao Mingye frowned slightly: "You..."
"I really haven't made any merit now, and it is indeed my father's face that I can follow you in the main tent, but so what?"
Her words seemed to be different from what he thought, and Xiao Mingye closed his mouth.
"My father has made contributions to Tianqi. He and I are father and daughter. My father is willing to promote me. That is a family matter and no one else can interfere. If I commit a crime because of my father's promotion, it is a national affair and I should be punished."
"Not to mention that I haven't made any mistakes yet, Zhiyu has proved that women in Tianqi are not incapable of being officials. They just lack a platform. If they really go to the battlefield, they may not be worse than anyone else!"
"The future is still unknown, so why rush to make a conclusion? Didn't they say that fighting is a man's business? I want to be the first female general in the history of Tianqi!"
Her voice was firm, full of confidence and calmness.
[Quack, quack! Well said!]
[Good at speaking, you will definitely be successful in the future and flatter! 】
Jiang Wenjing: "..."
Xiao Mingye: "..."
Hug her thigh? Why should I hug her thigh?
Xiao Mingye coughed lightly: "It's best if Miss Hu is not affected. These three people are dissatisfied and may cause trouble. I will send someone to watch them. If they have any bad intentions..."
The rest of the words were buried in his cold tone.
...
As dusk approached, the soldiers of Nanlong approached slowly.
Gongta and several soldiers took the prisoner cart and stood a hundred meters away from the defense line.
Jiang Zhiyu and others looked at him from a distance.
"When you two went on a diplomatic mission before, you said that you wanted Nanlong to give you an explanation. I have brought the people with me, but unfortunately Princess Tudola hanged herself on the way here. Only the prince is left. Do you two want to do it yourselves, or do you want us to do it?"
"You also said that was before. Now the army is pressing in. If you want to withdraw, there will be a different price."
Jiang Zhiyu bit the apple with a crunch.
The other price...
Gongta's mouth twitched twice: "What do you want?"
"Of course it's Nanlong."
"No negotiation?"
"No negotiation."
Gongta stared at Jiang Zhiyu with a heavy look, the snake on his cane was almost as high as the cane, and when he spoke again, his voice was low and full of temptation: "You won't send troops these days, right?"
Suddenly, several loud voices rang out in the crowd: "Yes!"
Xiao Mingye turned around in shock and fear to look at the source of the voice, it was a few soldiers.
The soldier next to him understood Xiao Mingye's eyes and dragged him away with an ugly face.
[Is it pupil technique? Then can my divine pupil technique be cracked? ]
[It should be possible, I have one more divine word than it!
Jiang Zhiyu stretched out his hand and turned Jiang Wenjing's face away, staring at the snake's pupils.
No one dared to breathe, only the breeze blew gently. After a long time, the snake opened its mouth and sprayed out a stream of venom. The snake's body wrapped around the crutch again, and the snake's head lay motionless. The
ground where the venom splashed made a sizzling sound, and the toxicity was obvious.
Everyone took a deep breath and admired Jiang Zhiyu even more in their hearts.
Gongta nervously checked the weak snake, staring at Jiang Zhiyu with a sinister look. To some extent, his pupils actually overlapped with the snake's pupils!
Jiang Wenjing took a step forward calmly and blocked his line of sight.
"Go!"
Gongta's voice was full of chillness. The soldiers quickly turned their horses' heads, and a beautiful female voice rang out.
"Now that we are here, why don't you just leave the things behind? Why are you taking them back?"
Jiang Zhiyu stood on tiptoe and poked his head out from Jiang Wenjing's shoulder, his clear eyes full of contempt.
The army behind him acted as the atmosphere very appropriately and said "Tsk". The
Nanlong people were so angry that their hands were shaking: "You don't even want to withdraw your troops, and you want us to waste the prince and princess for nothing? Aren't these people of heaven too shameless, and..."
"Put down the prison cart."
Gongta's voice interrupted the soldier's impassioned speech. He opened his mouth slightly, looking a little funny: "Elder..."
"I said, put down the prison cart, do you understand?"
The soldier felt a bit of a chill and nodded hurriedly.
After they ran away, the soldiers who were first infested with insects ran over and pulled the prison van back.
There was only one body of Tudora in the prison van.
She had been dead for a long time, and the weather was hot, so the body was gradually rotting.
Just in case, burning it was the safest way. Xiao Mingye handed it over to the soldiers to deal with it, and he went to search the prison van.
Unfortunately, the prison van was completely dismantled, and nothing useful was found.
Several people went back to the main account. Jiang Wenjing noticed Jiang Zhiyu's pensive expression: "What's wrong?" "
I always feel something is wrong. He said Erzhu Huaji is still alive, but he didn't bring him here at all. If we agree to withdraw our troops, and we don't see anyone when we check the goods, wouldn't it be more disadvantageous to Nanlong?"
Jiang Wenjing: "Maybe he also knows that we will not withdraw our troops? But he still holds on to this hope, so he only brings the dead Tudola here. After all, a dead person is of no use to them."
"That makes sense," Jiang Zhiyu touched his chin: "Then why did he deliberately ask, we won't send troops in the next few days?"
Jiang Wenjing was also silent. This question was obviously unreasonable.
Jiang Zhiyu licked her lips: "I always feel that he is stalling for time."
"But never mind, the insects will be planted in a few days, so who cares what he does."
"It would be great if there was a sudden uprising."
Hearing that she was still fantasizing, Jiang Wenjing laughed helplessly.
...
"Are you ready?"
Gongta held the medicine bowl and carefully fed the snake on the cane.
"Yes, the elder has agreed."
