Li Kong and Li Qin were sitting in the car, listening to the discussions outside and not daring to open the window.
They were afraid that if they showed up, the people of Xiao would see them and tear them alive!
The two of them came to Daxiao secretly. Naturally, they could not bring many people and horses with them. This carriage was still rented.
In order not to attract attention, there is not much decoration.
Fearing that Da Yu's costumes would arouse the anger of the Da Xiao people, they simply did not change their clothes. Instead, they followed the local customs and wore the clothes of the Da Xiao aristocrats.
They have kept a very low profile.
However, no matter how low-key it is, the flag of Dayu has to be clearly displayed.
This is the request of the Queen and Leng Yi.
If the flag is not even lit, it will not deter Xiao Lin, and their deal will naturally not be concluded.
In fact, Chang Sui, who went to Jincheng to deliver a message, had not returned yet. However, when Li Kong heard the news of the visit from the Four Kingdoms, he decided to take a risky gamble.
After all, if you win the bet, you can make a lot of money!
Zong Hui captured the Changlin Army, which made the people of Dayu proud. The new prince also became more and more arrogant because of the glory of his mother's clan.
If he doesn't produce outstanding results, let alone the position of Prince of the East Palace, he may not even be able to save his life!
This military achievement is very important to him!
If we can really capture Jincheng, we will naturally have the leverage to be evenly matched with the new prince!
Li Kong was lost in thought when he suddenly heard a "boom" from outside the carriage, as if something hit him!
The force of this hit was quite large, and the carriage trembled slightly!
The next moment, a putrid and unpleasant smell filled the air!
At the same time, suspicious liquid slowly seeped in between the wooden cracks in the carriage!
"What is this?" Li Qin was shocked!
Before Li Kong could reply, there was another "boom"!
This time, Li Qin saw clearly.
That's a stone as big as a fist!
The stone thrower must be an expert, he was able to use this stone to smash a big hole in this hard carriage!
The stone shook a few times beside the wooden hole and rolled into the carriage.
Li Kong looked out along the wooden hole and saw a flood of people, roaring in unison and surrounding them!
"The evil thief from Dayu dares to appear on our territory of Great Xiao!"
"Kill the Dayu dog and avenge the soldiers of Changlin Army!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Public anger is like a landslide and a tsunami!
"Dong dong dong!"
Those debris and rubble rained down on Li Kong's carriage fiercely!
Although brother and sister Li Kong and Li Qin had made sufficient mental preparations in advance, their expressions changed at the same time!
"Brother, these people won't kill us, right?" Li Qin said nervously.
"No!" Li Kong was still calm and said hoarsely: "The people from Honglu Temple will come out to speak soon..."
Before joining the messenger convoy, he had guessed that this disaster would happen.
Leng Yi also gave countermeasures.
I just hope this countermeasure works!
Sure enough, soon, he saw people in Da Xiao official uniforms standing up and shouting to the people: "Don't be impulsive! Da Yu is here to negotiate peace!"
Negotiate peace?
Everyone was startled, but soon cursed angrily: "Who wants to negotiate peace with them? Changlin's army fell into their hands, and the blood debt must be paid with blood!"
"That old man who talked about peace talks, did you ask His Highness the Crown Prince about this nonsense?"
"His Royal Highness will never negotiate peace with Dayu Dog!"
"That's it! Everyone, keep fighting! Kill these bastards!"
Everyone really hated Dayu to the core. While shouting, they continued to pick up the things at hand and throw them at the Dayu carriage. Even more enthusiastic young people rushed out and wanted to pull the messenger out of the carriage and tear him alive!
Meng Yiping, the young minister of Honglu Temple, was so anxious that his official hat was tilted when he saw this chaos!
"How could this happen?" He raised his foot and kicked Si Cheng Jiang Hu next to him, and cursed: "Didn't I tell you to ventilate with Huang Yi in advance? Where are the others?"
Jiang Hu grimaced: "My subordinate has already said it! He also said that he would greet him on the street in person! Why haven't I seen anyone now?"
After saying that, he stood on tiptoes and looked behind the crowd.
But there were too many people, and there was a surging trend. It was impossible to see who was who in this huge crowd.
Huang Yi was among the crowd at this time, accompanied by several officials from Nanjun.
Jiang Hu was not wrong. After hearing about the visit from the Four Kingdoms, he indeed agreed to go to the street to greet them.
After all, he had already heard about the visit of the Four Kingdoms to Xiao, so it was nothing unusual.
But he didn't expect that the original Four Kingdoms would suddenly become Five Kingdoms when they arrived in Nanjun!
And this extra country is the Chongqing country that should not appear in the Great Xiao!
The two countries have been at odds with each other for a long time. No matter whether the border residents or the armies of the two countries meet, they will fight to the death with blood dripping!
Huang Yi felt that no matter how stupid Emperor Xiao was, he would not invite Dayu to join Xiao!
As for the peace talks Meng Yiping said, he didn't believe it even more!
The corpses of Changlin's army are still cold, who wants to negotiate peace with them?
Even the common people in the countryside understand the truth. Is it possible that these officials in the capital don't understand it?
This Meng Yiping has always been a staunch royalist and has a feud with the Xie family. If he suddenly does this, he must have a shady conspiracy!
Huang Yi couldn't figure out what Meng Yiping was going to do.
However, it is definitely not a good thing for enemy envoys to suddenly appear!
As a county guard, if he really lined up to greet him at this time, those who didn't know about it would think that he was in cahoots with Meng Yiping!
As a local official, Huang Yi was unwilling to participate in the battles between the DPRK and China.
He is not a royalist, nor a princeling, he is just a small official who can get by.
At this time, it is best to be a turtle.
Of course, the most important thing is that Huang Yi was very displeased when he saw the bird flag of Dayu!
If the people want to make trouble, let them make trouble!
Anyway, the law does not blame everyone.
The late emperor is also dead, and now the prince is in power. No matter how angry the old boy Meng Yiping is, without the backing to rely on, nothing can be done to him!
Huang Yi stood on the street corner watching the excitement.
Meng Yiping was so anxious that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, as if they were being roasted on a rack!
On one side, Jiang Hu was urged to find someone else, and on the other side, he directed the escort team to stop the young people from causing trouble. He himself was in danger of having his head smashed, and rushed to the people to comfort him.
"I know that you are sincere, but this time Dayu is here to apologize..."
Someone yelled and retorted: "Guan Guan, if I chop you up, can I apologize to you again?"
"That's right! If you owe a blood debt, you have to pay with your life!"
"This is the truth, but as the saying goes, if two countries are at war, the envoys will not be killed without killing them!" Meng Yiping wiped the sweat from his face and tried his best to persuade, "Our huge country can't even have this kind of magnanimity and etiquette. No, wouldn’t it make people laugh? There are also envoys from the four countries looking at us! Besides..."
He coughed and raised his voice a little higher, "Besides, they were invited by the late emperor. No matter what happens to the two countries in the future, it will all be decided by His Highness the Crown Prince! We can't kill them so roughly! In this way, how can we Aren't you just starting a war out of thin air? When the war breaks out, the border people will naturally suffer! You are impulsive and reckless, and our compatriots will have to pay the price with their lives! Think about it, is it worth it? "
