Chapter 790 If you want to destroy Beiling, just lock me up
Xiahou Ling stopped abruptly.
The purpose of the Emperor of Wei.
It’s Southern Qi!
The Emperor of Wei had never thought of asking Beiling to cease fire, nor did he want to use Song Jinxiu to take over the National Master's Mansion.
He just wanted to use Song Jinxiu as a fish to stir up trouble in the royal court, and take advantage of the fact that the commander-in-chief has not been decided to delay the time for Beiling to go to war. It is true that he transferred troops to Mu Nan Pass, and it is also true that he let Yin Bao secretly go to the southern border.
The Emperor of Wei wanted to turn the fake play into a real attack on Southern Qi.
Even Xiahou Ling couldn't hide the shock on his face.
The Emperor of Wei actually risked being attacked from both Beiling and Southern Qi, wanting to take down Southern Qi before the civil strife in Beiling made it difficult to send troops!
How dare he?
Even though Southern Qi was not as powerful as Beiling and Wei, it was not a place that could be taken over in just a few days. If the two countries made any mistakes in the war, they would lose everything.
Isn't he afraid that if he fails to conquer Southern Qi, he will become too powerful to control, and his forces will be tied down by Southern Qi. If both sides go to war at the same time, it will destroy the Great Wei? ! !
Xiahou Ling said urgently, "Send a message to the royal court immediately, saying that I have an important matter to discuss with the Khan!"
The servant hesitated: "But the Imperial Master is still under house arrest..."
"Go tell the Khan that if he wants to destroy Beiling, he can lock me up!"
Xiahou Ling shouted angrily, but when he saw the shocked and horrified looks from his subordinates and superiors, he forced himself to suppress his anger.
"You should tell the Khan that there's something fishy going on between the Wei Dynasty and the Southern Qi Dynasty. Song Jinxiu is the Wei Emperor's man. They're not only planning to take over the Imperial Master's Mansion, but the entire Beiling. The Princess' Mansion and the other tribes have all fallen into their trap."
"Tell the Khan that I have something very important to discuss with him in person. He must see me, otherwise something terrible will happen."
The servant felt a little nervous after hearing Xiahou Ling's serious words.
"I'll go right away."
…
Princess Mansion.
Wu Ya raised an eyebrow: "You said Xia Hou Ling asked to see the Khan?"
"yes."
The people below knelt on the ground and said, "The people at the Imperial Master's Mansion said that the Imperial Master had important matters to discuss with the Khan, which were related to the survival of Beiling. They also said that the Imperial Master said that Song Jinxiu was the Wei Emperor's man, and that the princess, her husband, and the elders of the various tribes had all been deceived by him."
Wu Ya laughed out loud upon hearing this: "Look, is Xiahou Ling anxious?"
She leaned on the couch and said to Ji Rongqing beside her:
"I thought he was something extraordinary, but he couldn't sit still after just a few days of being locked up, and he even said such things. If Song Jinxiu is the Emperor of Wei's man, then what is he who picked Song Jinxiu up in the first place?"
Wu Ya did dislike Song Jinxiu, but that didn't mean she would believe what Xia Hou Ling said.
Everyone knows how miserable Song Jinxiu was when he escaped from the Wei Dynasty. After being picked up by Xiahou Ling and brought back to Beiling, he was even more like a stray dog, kneeling in front of him begging for his life.
Wu Ya also heard that Song Jinxiu's parents and relatives were all killed by Emperor Wei, and his once prominent family was completely destroyed by Emperor Wei.
Will he help the Emperor of Wei and become his spy?
It's ridiculous!
Wu Ya laughed and taunted a few times, then turned to look at Ji Rongqing, only to see that his brows were slightly furrowed.
She paused: "Why, do you still believe Xia Hou Ling's words?"
Ji Rongqing shook his head: "It's not that I believe what he said, but I think Xia Hou Ling's behavior is a bit strange."
Wu Ya raised an eyebrow: "What's strange?"
Ji Rongqing said, "Xiahou Ling is extremely conceited. He has been operating in Beiling for many years, secretly entrenching his power in the royal court and various tribes. Even if the Imperial Preceptor's Order was taken away and he was trapped in the mansion, it didn't hurt him at all. Logically, he shouldn't have surrendered so quickly."
Given Xiahou Ling's temperament, after being "betrayed" by Huyan Min, he would definitely try his best to let the Khan know how powerful he is.
The Imperial Master's Mansion has accumulated power for many years, and countless people have defected to him, either openly or secretly. From the royal court to the army, as long as Xiahou Ling speaks, even if it is just to let those people stay in the mansion and ignore the orders of the royal court, it will be enough to make Hu Yanmin unable to cope, and the imperial city will be in chaos.
By then, Hu Yanmin will realize that he cannot leave the Imperial Master's Mansion and will definitely submit to Xiahou Ling.
Ji Rongqing had already prepared for how to deal with the chaos at that time. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to seize the power in the hands of those people and make Xiahou Ling suffer a great loss. However, he did not expect that Xiahou Ling would take the initiative to surrender and ask to see Huyan Min.
This is not like his character at all.
Wu Ya didn't think too much about it: "Maybe he realized that the situation this time was different from the past, and Hu Yanmin also wanted to destroy the bridge after crossing it."
Seeing Ji Rongqing still frowning, she said:
"Don't overthink it. Even if Song Jinxiu is the Emperor of Wei's man, so what? He's not targeting us now. Besides, we've finally managed to suppress Xia Hou Ling. Do we really have to let him go to see Hu Yanmin?"
"He's very eloquent. Hu Yanmin already feels a little regretful. If they were to meet, he would definitely help the Imperial Master's Mansion escape from this predicament."
Seeing that he still didn't speak, Wu Ya moved closer.
"Rong Qing, Xiahou Lingzuo is just spouting alarmist rhetoric. The most important thing right now is the commander-in-chief's affairs. If Xiahou Ling were to show up, he would definitely cause trouble and make it difficult for Sanqina to lead the troops."
"The dispatch of troops cannot be delayed for a few days. The power to lead the troops must fall into the hands of Zong Yu's troops. There must be no mistakes."
She is more qualified to be the Khan than Hu Yanmin, and cares about Beiling more than he who is scheming and scheming.
If Xiahou Ling had not used tricks to let the Shi family of Southern Qi take advantage of the chaos to kill Fu Khan, causing the chaos in Beiling and almost splitting it into pieces, the throne should have belonged to her and Zong Yu's tribe. How could it have been Hu Yanmin's turn?
She and her mother pretended to submit and waited for such a long time before finally getting this opportunity. As long as Sang Qina led the troops with legitimate reasons and defeated the Southern Wei, Beiling would be under the control of their Zong Yu tribe.
What will Hu Yanmin be by then?
Wu Ya leaned her head against Ji Rongqing's shoulder and wrapped her arms around his waist: "Rongqing, you will help me, right?"
Ji Rongqing reached out and grabbed the hand that was trying to climb up to his waist and get intimate with him through his clothes. He pretended to move away a little, and when Wu Ya suddenly raised her head and couldn't help showing anger, he took the initiative to hold her hand.
Ji Rongqing intertwined his fingers with hers, his expression full of tenderness.
"I will naturally help the princess."
"This Beiling Club belongs to the princess, and no one can compare to you."
Wu Ya's originally angry eyes were replaced by shyness. She looked at the handsome face of the man next to her, and saw his affectionate look. She couldn't help but blush and leaned closer to his arms.
"I knew you were the best."
Wu Ya raised her head and said to the people below, "Since the Khan has ordered the Imperial Preceptor to be confined to his residence, then let him reflect on his mistakes in the residence. No news from the Imperial Preceptor's residence must be reported to the royal court. Also, no one from the Imperial Preceptor's residence is allowed to leave the residence."
"Yes, Princess."
After the people retreated, Wu Ya's face regained its warmth and softness, and she extended her hand to Ji Rongqing's chest.
"Rong Qing, I think..."
"Princess, I'm not well yet."
Ji Rongqing grabbed her hand again.
