Wolfbane followed: "The city gate has been opened, but it's just ajar!" Yeqi Guanyin said: "My handsome guards are chasing me. Two of you, one will stay here to guard, and the other will go to the palace immediately to report!" The general hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, it's inappropriate for you to only lead a few hundred guards to pursue me!" The Bone Governor nodded, "There are also several hundred Koreans, and they are obviously brave and murderous. Sir, if there is a fight, I’m afraid the king will not be able to secure victory!”
Ye Qi Guanyin glared and said: "I have my own sense of proportion, you can just carry out the order!" The two of them did not dare to say anything more and agreed in unison. Ye Qi Guanyin raised her voice and said: "Guards, follow me!" Then he led hundreds of female guards under his command and galloped out of the city gate.
Wolfbane said worriedly: "The king only leads the guards to chase, I'm afraid he will be in danger!" The Bone Governor couldn't help but be a little worried, "The princess always has no plans, she must have her own plan! Since the princess has given such an order, she shouldn't If there is a problem, we will act according to the princess's instructions!" Wolfbane nodded, "Then which of us will stay here and who will go to the palace to report?" Bone Governor said: "Whatever, brother." "Then I will enter the palace. Report the news!"
Wolfbane rushed outside the palace and asked the guards to inform him that there was an emergency and he needed to see the saint. The guard rushed in. Not long after, the guard came back and said to Wolfsbane: "I'm sorry, General, your Majesty just went to bed and no one was seen!" When Wolfsbane heard this, he left.
Turning his eyes to the other side, Yang Peng and others ran southward after leaving Zhongjing. Wang Kai had already prepared for them along the way. Almost every county they passed had hundreds of horses prepared in advance for them to transfer. Since Yang Peng was the newly promoted general of Xiaowei, under the protection of this important status, he had a smooth journey. At the same time, Ye Qi Guanyin was rushing behind, changing horses all the way. Naturally, she did not prepare horses along the way like Yang Peng did. However, he was the Ye Qi Guanyin of the imperial court. It is very easy to change horses.
Two days later, Yang Peng and his party arrived at the southern foot of Hushen Mountain. The vast sea was already in sight, and two large ships were docked under the cliff on the seaside in front. At this time, the rumble of horse hooves came from behind. Everyone turned around and looked around, only to see Ye Qi Guanyin from the Liao Kingdom leading hundreds of female guards.
Yang Peng reined in his horse, and when everyone saw this, they also reined in their horses. Yang Peng said to Yelu Guanyin and Cheng Shijie: "You all go to the beach and get on the boat first, and I will take over!" Yelu Hanyu said angrily: "There is no reason to leave you behind!" Cheng Shijie nodded. Yang Peng didn't insist anymore. Several hundred people turned their horses to face the oncoming pursuers.
After a while, the pursuers came to a stop a dozen steps ahead. Yang Peng raised his voice and asked, "Did Ye Guanyin come here to see me off?" Ye Xi Guanyin stared at Yang Peng angrily, "It's really you! It's really you! It turns out that you are the one who messed up our Liao Kingdom. There is chaos and panic! You hateful man!"
Yang Peng wiped off the disguise on his face and raised his head. Wasn't it the hateful face that she remembered every night? Ye Qi Guanyin was so angry that she screamed and urged her horse to kill Yang Peng. Yang Peng immediately urged his horse to meet him. Ye Qi Guanyin stabbed fiercely with her spear, but Yang Peng did not pull out the weapon, but just dodged sideways.
Seeing that Ye Qi Guanyin missed the hit, he struck again. Yang Peng grabbed the barrel of the gun and said angrily: "Do you really want to kill me?" Ye Qi Guanyin glared and said: "Nonsense! You are my Daliao Kingdom My biggest enemy, I **** want to kill you every night!"
Yang Peng sighed and let go of the gun. Ye Qi Guanyin took back her spear and shouted: "Take out your weapons, let's fight openly and openly! Either you die or I die today!" Yang Peng had no choice but to pull out the Japanese sword. Ye Qi Guanyin scolded and stabbed Yang Peng. Yang Peng raised his sword to block it. Ye Qi Guanyin kept attacking fiercely, and Yang Peng kept blocking with his sword, making a loud clanging sound.
After a few moves, Yang Peng fended off the opponent's spear, then subconsciously swung his sword to counterattack, and the Japanese sword struck Yeqi Guanyin head-on. Ye Qi Guanyin faced the Japanese sword but did not dodge it. She even stabbed Yang Peng in the chest with her spear. It was like they were both going to die together!
Yang Peng frowned, quickly withdrew the Japanese sword, swung the sword to the side, and blocked the spear thrust by Ye Qi Guanyin. Then he stretched out his left hand and hugged Yeli Guanyin's slender waist and hugged her over. Ye Qi Guanyin's soldiers were startled and wanted to step forward to rescue him, but they dared not act rashly.
Ye Qi Guanyin looked at the man in front of her, feeling extremely calm and closed her eyes, "Kill me!" Yang Peng sighed and murmured: "How could I let it go!" Ye Qi Guanyin quickly opened her eyes and stared at Yang Peng's eyes were filled with complex feelings. Yang Peng put her under the horse and sheathed his sword, "Go back!"
Ye Qi Guanyin glared at Yang Peng, "Although you let me go today, if you fall into my hands in the future, I will never let you go!" Yang Peng nodded with a smile and said teasingly. : "Is it like what Ye Qi Hucheng said, tie me to your bed! That's what I want!" Ye Qi Guanyin stared at Yang Peng with a red face.
Yang Peng sighed, "Why are we enemies?" Ye Qi Guanyin couldn't help but feel shocked. Yang Peng looked at Ye Qi Guanyin and sang loudly, "Ask the world, what is love, how can it teach life and death? Traveling from the south to the north, the old wings have been in the cold and summer several times. Joy is fun, parting is bitter, and there are even more crazy children. Jun. What should be said: Thousands of miles of clouds, thousands of mountains with dusk snow, who are the shadows going to? On the Hengfen Road, the flutes and drums were played in the loneliness, and the desolate smoke is still clear. How come the soul-calling Chu has come to complain, and the mountain ghosts secretly cry in the wind and rain. The sky is also jealous , Before you believe me, the orioles and swallows are all in the loess. For thousands of years, I have reserved it for the poets, who sing and drink wildly and come to visit Yanqiu."
Yang Peng turned the horse's head and returned to the crowd. Yelu Hanyu rolled his eyes at Yang Peng and complained: "It's the same old habit again!" Yang Peng chuckled, "Okay, let's go!" Then a large group of people turned around. The horse's head ran towards the sea. Yang Peng raised his hand and waved behind him. Ye Qi Guanyin couldn't help but waved to him. When he reacted, he couldn't help but feel very upset about his behavior. Suddenly remembering something, I quickly got on my horse and chased after him. Riding his horse up the cliff by the sea, he shouted to the two tall ships that had already set sail: "Yang Peng..."
Yang Peng turned around, looked at the beautiful figure on the top of the mountain, and raised his voice: "What...?" "Is what you said that night true?" "That night?" "Two days ago, at my brother's house. …”
Yang Peng remembered it, smiled, and said loudly: "It's true!" Ye Qi Guanyin couldn't help but flush her cheeks, and a joy she had never experienced before welled up in her heart, but then this joy was drowned by thousands of melancholy. . Staring blankly at the building boat gradually disappearing, my heart seemed to be taken away. The female guards came up. Ye Qi Guanyin came to her senses and ordered: "No one is allowed to tell anyone about this matter!" The female guards agreed.
Yelu Hanyu poked Yang Peng's rumors and asked jealously: "What exactly did you say that night?" Yang Peng said: "I said, Yang Peng loves her too!" Yelu Hanyu rolled her eyes at Yang Peng, " You, you are so merciful!" Yang Peng sighed melancholy, "This feeling is really uncomfortable!" Yelu Hanyu couldn't help but put his head on Yang Peng's shoulder, and smiled: "Speaking of which, I am much happier than her!"
Ye Qi Guanyin returned to Zhongjing, saw Bone Governor and Wolf Poison, and asked, "Does Your Majesty know about this?" Wolf Poison shook his head, "Your Majesty has been in a coma for a few days!" Ye Qi Guanyin frowned. , "How could this happen?" "I'm not sure about the specifics. I just heard that Your Majesty may have an emergency caused by typhoid fever!" Ye Qi Guanyin hurried towards the palace.
When I arrived outside the palace, I saw almost all the important civil and military officials standing guard outside the palace, with worried looks on their faces. When everyone saw Ye Qi Guanyin coming, they all came up to pay homage.
"Little sister, where have you been these past few days?" Yeli Hucheng asked angrily. Yeyi Guanyin said: "Kanaze and the others escaped, I went to chase Kanazawa!" Yeyi Hucheng was stunned, "What does this mean?" Yeyi Guanyin frowned and said: "I found out that Kanazawa may be from a foreign country. I was a spy, so I took people to his house to capture him. Unexpectedly, by the time I arrived, he had already run away. I have been chasing him for the past few days, but I still let him run away!" Ye Qianhu! When Cheng heard this, he was furious, "That bastard! I still regard him as a good brother! I didn't expect him to harbor evil intentions!"
Ye Qi Guanyin took a look at the palace and asked anxiously: "How is your Majesty?" Ye Qi Hucheng put Yang Peng's affairs aside for the time being, frowned and said: "The situation is not good, the imperial doctors have tried their best to find nothing. I can make His Majesty wake up! Those useless trash! Now it’s up to Divine Doctor Li!”
"How could this happen? Isn't it just typhoid fever?" Yeli Hucheng frowned and shook his head. At this time, in the palace, the retired imperial doctor with white hair and beard, Dr. Li, who had just been invited out of the palace, was carefully giving the emperor acupuncture. The old doctor pulled out a silver needle from the needle bag and carefully inserted it into the emperor's Baihui point. The emperor, who had been silent for several days, suddenly spurted out a large mouthful of black blood. Everyone present was startled. The Concubine and the Queen of Goryeo quickly called out: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!..." Then the emperor fell asleep again.
The queen asked the old doctor angrily: "What's going on? You didn't use the wrong needle, right?" The old doctor quickly explained: "The empress has misunderstood. The black blood your majesty spurted was not caused by the acupuncture given by the minister, but The poisonous blood accumulated in His Majesty's heart!!" As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed, and the Queen shouted: "You have made it clear, what is this poisonous blood about?"
The old doctor glanced at the emperor on the bed and frowned: "Weichen has been practicing medicine for more than seventy years. It can be said that he has seen all kinds of strange poisons, but he has never seen this kind of strange poison! Although this kind of strange poison is extremely poisonous, But it will not kill people immediately, it will only slowly devour the vitality of the poisoned person. The initial symptoms are like a cold, but the condition will become more and more serious, and in the end it will be like now, unconscious... "
The queen said anxiously: "Since you said it so eloquently, there must be a way to cure it!" The old doctor hesitated for a moment, "I can only give it a try, I really can't guarantee it!" Concubine Goryeo rushed to say: "Since there is The solution is to rescue her quickly!" The Queen glared at Concubine Gao Li angrily.
The old doctor immediately used golden needles to unblock the meridians. The emperor sprayed several mouthfuls of black blood and gradually regained his consciousness. Finally, the old doctor wrote a prescription, and several imperial doctors and palace maids and eunuchs immediately went down to prepare the medicine. Soon after, the medicinal soup was delivered, and the queen personally fed the emperor.
After another half an hour, the emperor woke up completely and exhaled a long breath, "I feel as if I have died!" The queen cried with joy, "Your Majesty, you are finally awake!!" The emperor glanced at the queen. , glanced at Concubine Gao Li again, and said with emotion: "It's really difficult for you!" Concubine Gao Li said hurriedly: "I have nothing to do, I am just very worried about Your Majesty! Now that His Majesty has woken up, I have finally let go of my worries. !” The emperor smiled and nodded.
The queen turned to look at Concubine Gao Li and asked in a cold voice: "His Majesty's daily life is taken care of by the concubine, why was he poisoned?" Concubine Gao Li was startled, knelt down quickly, and cried: "I don't know what happened. What's going on? However, it is indeed my fault that I failed to detect any clues. Your Majesty, please execute me!"
How could the emperor be willing to execute this charming and considerate concubine? Seeing her crying and pitiful, his heart was melted. He said softly: "My concubine, you are serious! I know you are innocent!" Gao Li The imperial concubine was deeply moved and said: "Thank you very much for your majesty's trust in me!"
The queen was very upset, but she couldn't say anything more. The emperor looked at the old doctor, smiled and said: "I want to reward you heavily! It was you who saved me!" The old doctor quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't dare to be a humble minister! I failed to save your majesty!" Everyone Very puzzled, Concubine Goryeo asked anxiously: "What do you mean by this? Isn't Your Majesty fine now?"
The old doctor raised his head and blamed himself: "I am incompetent. The poisonous blood has already flowed all over Your Majesty's body, and I can't completely remove it!" The emperor frowned; the queen became nervous again; Concubine Goryeo hurriedly said: "You Let's speak more clearly!" The old doctor said: "In other words, Your Majesty is just having a flashback now. When the poison breaks out again, I'm afraid that even the gods can't save it!" The Queen felt dizzy immediately and almost fainted. Then he shouted sternly: "You must cure your majesty! Otherwise, you will lose your life!" The old doctor said: "Wei Chen is really powerless, please execute me!" The queen was so angry that she even thought of it. Call someone. But the emperor waved his hand, "Queen, don't make things difficult for him!" "But Your Majesty..." The emperor said very freely and honestly: "Death is inevitable in life, so why force it! What can he, a doctor, do about what is destined to happen?" He glanced at the old doctor and said, "No need to kneel, get up and talk!" The old doctor stood up.
The emperor asked: "Tell me honestly, how long do I have to live?" The old doctor thought for a while, "I dare not speak nonsense!" "Say! I forgive you!" "Yes." He raised his head and looked at it. Looking at the emperor, he said, "Based on your majesty's aura, complexion, pulse and poisonous blood, I estimate that your majesty only has five days to live at most!"
Everyone was shocked, the queen couldn't stop crying, and Concubine Goryeo also lowered her head and sobbed. The emperor was stunned and sighed, "There are only five days! I still have a lot of things to do!" He smiled bitterly and said, "That's all!" He said to the trusted eunuch beside him: "Go and get Han Derang, Yedi Guanyin, Call me Yeqian Hucheng, Yeqian Xiuge, Zhanmeihe, Dalan, Yeqian Zongjun, Yeqian He'an, Yeqian Hongji and my mother, the Queen Mother Xiao."
The eunuch responded and ran down. After a while, several people named by the emperor followed the eunuch and hurried in. "Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted together. The emperor glanced at everyone and said calmly: "I have some bad news for you. I only have five days to live!" Everyone was shocked. Ye Qian Hucheng said angrily: "Brother, why are you saying such things?" Ye Qian Hongji said anxiously: "Father will live a long life!"
The emperor shook his head, "This is a fate, something decided by ghosts and gods. Even though I am an emperor, I cannot disobey it!" Seeing what Ye Qi Hongji and Ye Qi Hucheng wanted to say, he raised his hand and said: " Stop talking and listen to me!" The two had no choice but to shut their mouths.
The emperor said: "After my death, Ye Hongji will inherit the throne..." Ye Hongji showed disbelief. No wonder he was in disbelief, because he was only the emperor's son, and his two younger brothers were still there. It is impossible for him to inherit the throne. "I have many sons, but only Hongji is like me. Only Hongji can inherit the unfinished business of my brother and I!" He glanced at everyone, "You must work together to assist Hongji, just like you assisted my brother and me. Same!" Everyone agreed in unison.
"After I die, I will be buried next to my brother! If one day we destroy the Song Kingdom and Yan Yun, you must tell me and my brother!" He turned to look at the gloomy sky outside the door, and subconsciously felt a very bad feeling in his heart. I had a premonition, but time was running out and I couldn’t care about anything else.
Three days later, Emperor Ye Qian Longxu of the Liao Kingdom died. His posthumous title was Emperor Lie, and his temple name was Taizong of the Liao Dynasty.
After the emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, Ye Qi Guanyin was immediately ready to submit evidence to the new emperor to deal with the man behind the assassination of the late emperor. However, at this moment, she received very bad news. The most important witness in the dungeon of the Princess Mansion died inexplicably! When Yedi Guanyin learned the news, she was very shocked. She wanted to simply use force to get rid of the mastermind behind the scenes, and then apologize to the emperor! But the man behind the scenes seemed to have noticed it a long time ago and had already returned to his military camp. Ye Qi Guanyin had no choice but to put the matter aside temporarily and wait for the next opportunity. The mastermind must be eliminated, but she could not take the risk of the Liao Kingdom falling into civil war.
When Yang Peng received the news of the death of the Liao Emperor in Yanjing, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional. Throwing the report on the desk, he said to Wang Laozhi who was standing below: "Your poison is really powerful! Even the miracle doctor Li couldn't save him!" Wang Laozhi said: "He should have discovered it relatively late. Otherwise, it will be difficult to say!" Yang Peng nodded.
Wang Laozhi glanced at Yang Peng, "Although the leader successfully assassinated Ye Qian Longxu, Ye Qian Hongji successfully succeeded to the throne. It seems that the desired effect was not achieved!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Don't worry. , The Liao Kingdom will not be stable for long! Ye Qian Hongji is just a young man with no military exploits and no achievements. Do you think the kings and generals of the Liao Kingdom who have heavy troops will be convinced?" Wang Laozhi smiled and nodded. .
Jiang Li rushed in and handed over a letter, "There is news from the south!" Yang Peng took the letter, opened it, and read it again. He smiled and said: "The imperial court once again defeated the invasion of the Liao Allied Forces. This time the losses were huge! The emperor seems to be no longer as afraid of the Khitans as before, as if he intends to launch the Northern Expedition!"
"If the imperial court can really launch a large-scale Northern Expedition, it will indeed be a good thing!"
Yang Peng nodded. A few days later, another news came from the north. Emperor Ye Qian Hongji of the Liao Kingdom, who had just ascended the throne for just ten days, unexpectedly died inexplicably in his palace. Brother Ye Qianxiu and others supported Taizu's eldest grandson Ye Qiangan as the new emperor, and Brother Ye Qianxiu was granted the title of Nanyuan. The king and envoy of the Privy Council commanded the entire Khitan army. The noble concubine of Goryeo was granted the title of Empress Dowager Wulie, and was given the power to participate in major military and political affairs with the power of prime minister. However, at the same time, rumors abounded in both the government and the public in Liao. The rumor that brother Ye Qianxiu teamed up with the Empress Dowager Wu Lie to kill Ye Qian Hongji could be said to be very popular. Many kings and generals in the Liao Kingdom who held heavy troops did not follow the court's orders and took a wait-and-see attitude. Both the court and the people were in panic.
Yang Peng read the report and smiled slightly. Wang Laozhi said with great admiration: "It's just as the leader expected!" Oops! Suddenly there was a shout in the distance. Yang Peng and Wang Laozhi quickly followed the sound and saw that Yang Jing was lying on the ground, while a particularly majestic and elegant horse was running in front. A large group of people were shouting and trying to stop the horse. The scene It's a mess.
Yang Peng laughed and ran over quickly, and Wang Laozhi also ran over. Li Zheng helped a soldier stand up and spit out the mud in his mouth. Yang Peng felt relieved when he saw that he was fine, and joked: "Li Zheng, didn't you have enough food this morning? Why are you chewing mud here?" The people around him burst into laughter. Li Zheng said angrily: "I didn't chew the mud! It was that horse that threw me off! That damn horse, I must cut it into pieces and roast it!" It happened that John, the horseman, took the lead. The horse just came over. Friends who have read the previous article should still remember the Englishman who came all the way from the West to the East to hunt for gold. He is now the chief officer in charge of horse breeding under Yang Peng.
As soon as John came over, he heard Li Zheng saying that he wanted to roast his precious horse, and he immediately shouted angrily: "You don't know how to ride a horse and insist on riding it, but you blame my horse for falling! You are so unreasonable!" Li Zheng glared. He said: "It was your horse that threw me. Come here and let me punch you twice!" John's expression changed and he said loudly: "You are so unreasonable! It's your fault, but you want to hit me!" Li Zhenglu said If you roll up your sleeves, you will go forward and hit someone. John was so frightened that he quickly hid behind Yang Peng and shouted: "Your Majesty, save me! Your Majesty, save me!"
Yang Peng stopped Li Zheng and shouted angrily: "Li Zheng, stop fooling around!" Li Zheng stopped and glared at John and said angrily: "A big man is so evasive!" John protested. Said: "You are just like a monster, how dare I fight you!" Li Zheng laughed proudly. In his opinion, calling him a monster is just a compliment!
Yang Peng looked at the horse held by John and said with emotion: "What a horse!!" When John heard Yang Peng praising his horse, he immediately forgot what happened and said with joy: "This new breed Our horses are not only much bigger than the original horses in the East, but also bigger than our horses in England and France! I didn’t expect that the hybrid breeds from the East and the West are so good!” Li Zheng interjected: “In that case, I should Just find someone from your side to be your mother-in-law!"
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
