"How far away?!"
Zhao Mi was a little depressed. When they came in, they met Wang Qi who had just gone out. Now Xiao Yaksha has come back, and they are still on the road.
There was no way, although this troop transportation road was much wider than the Han Road, there were so many of them, and it was their first time here. According to Li Qiong, this thing was used to frustrate Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, although the purpose was not the same. It's not for transporting troops, but things like ventilation holes, niches for placing oil lamps, and obstacle tickets - even if you're walking well, the roof will suddenly drop down, and anyone who's not paying attention will be hit with a bloody head. The obstacle wall , traps, leg blocks, everything.
Although there was Xin Zan's mark, and most of the soldiers in front also wore helmets in addition to armor, many people still stumbled, so the march could not be accelerated.
Wang Qi knew that Zhao Mi was asking about the location of Li Qiong. He was not very familiar with this place, so he just made an estimate and said:
"Ride half a stick of incense!"
The sound of the two people's questions and answers carried very far in the passage, and this answer made Zhao Duzhi a little irritable.
It would be fine if Li Qiong didn't know, but he clearly knew... Could he take it seriously and let these tens of thousands of people enter the city?
It was just that he was confused and no one could answer it for him.
When Wang Qi arrived at the command room, Xiao Yaksha was already a little tired. Although he was riding a horse, he did not dare to neglect the time. Similarly, it was also because of Li Qiong's confusing behavior that he could not help but He was a little anxious, but when he got anxious... the horse's butt had been beaten to pieces, and his arms were sore.
When he came down, he didn't even have time to take a breath. Wang De and Xin Zan surrounded him, especially Xin Zan. The old man had just been trying to persuade Wang De to ask someone to kill Li Qiong, but he was waiting aside. Jin Sai was slapped several times. Among the others, he was the most excited at this time.
Li Qiong was sitting in the same position as before, as if he had been in this position since Wang Qi left. If he hadn't been holding the teacup in his hand, Wang Qi would have been in a trance.
"How? What did the officials say?"
"Speak! What is going on!"
"Agree or not, whether you want Bozhou City or not, you have to say!"
The three people surrounded him and kept asking him questions. Wang Qi's face became a little strange when he thought of the appearance of Zhao Guan's family just now.
Wang De knew his son's temper. Seeing him like this, he knew that the emperor must have made an unexpected decision. Although he just said that he had confidence in Zhao Guan's family, it was the elixir of immortality after all!
When he came back to his senses, he was no longer as sure as he was at the beginning.
The most calm person is Li Qiong. In his opinion, the Zhao Guan family will definitely not be able to refuse the thing he throws out. This is not an embarrassing thing. The weight between longevity and Yicheng may not be the same for others. You can't say for sure, but the more precious your life is, the better your choice will be.
Since it is a destined answer, why bother asking so many questions?
Wang Qi gently removed the six hands on his body, then walked in front of Li Qiong, ignoring Wang Shizhong and Jin Sai who looked defensive, and sat directly opposite Li Qiong.
No matter who used the tea cup, he picked it up and drank it in one gulp.
"Surrender now, and the officials will forgive you, and you will be credited with meritorious deeds for the city."
"As for talking..." Xiao Yaksha looked at Li Qiong and tried his best to express the emperor's contempt just now, "Are you qualified?"
Li Qiong's smile finally froze on his face, and Wang Qi's admiration for the emperor in his heart increased. After being in Bozhou for so many days, this was the first time Xiao Yaksha saw Li Qiong's expression.
I don't know why, but I feel a little happy in my heart.
As for the people at the other end, Liu Zhan, who was not too surprised when he heard the elixir of life just now, became extremely surprised after hearing the decision brought by the emperor. Wang De was okay. After all, he knew it well, although he didn't He knew where his confidence in the emperor came from, but Yaksha just felt that the officials would not agree to the scholar's request.
Xin Zan seemed to have heard something extremely gratifying, and the pain on his face subsided a bit. As for Wang Shizhong and Jin Sai, they frowned and looked embarrassed.
Could it be that in the eyes of the Zhao Guan family, these traitors are not even qualified to negotiate?
"The official said that if he is willing to surrender, he will not let you down, but if he wants to fight..."
Xiao Yasha pinched his throat and looked like a eunuch, and the eunuch look was the greatest performance he could give.
Because in his heart, eunuchs are born with dog eyes and speak to be beaten. Using their tone to speak to Li Qiong is already the greatest contempt.
"He will not let you down."
Li Qiong was a little unbelievable: "The Zhao family read my letter. Could it be that..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Qi smiled and said, "Uncle Li, the official didn't read your letter."
"this……"
"Don't look at your nephew like that. The letter has naturally been given to the official, but they just didn't read it."
Didn’t even look at it!
"Not only did I not read it, but the official was going to the toilet. Thanks to your letter being delivered in time, it saved the official a lot of paper."
These words became more and more exaggerated. Wang De knew that this was something the emperor could do. He looked at Li Qiong happily but also worriedly for a moment, fearing that the scholar would be provoked and try to kill him.
At that time, you can only see the real chapter under your hands.
Unexpectedly...
Li Qiong stood up. He had already stood up when Wang Qi said that the emperor didn't read the letter, but he lowered his head so that no one could see his expression clearly.
It was only after a while that he smiled and laughed out loud.
At first, he just closed his mouth and laughed hummingly, which was hard to understand. Later, he opened his mouth and laughed. His smile was a little heroic and a little wild.
Wang Qi calmed down a little at this time. For him, the people from the Front Division and the Infantry Division were behind him. As long as they got here, it would be too late for Li Qiong to hide his backhand. .
After capturing Li Qiong and his two lieutenants, Bozhou City was no longer able to resist.
"Time is fate, time is fate!"
"What did he do in the early years, and why has he changed to this kind of virtue now?"
"If, if this had happened long ago, could Hebei be lost? Can Kaifeng be lost? Can Marshal Zong be exhausted to death?"
"Why should he look back now, huh? Why should he look back now?!"
Li Qiong didn't know who he was asking, but his voice was getting higher and hoarse, as if he had spent all his energy and could no longer care about his previous elegant and gentle manner. He became a little... ...went crazy.
Wang De sighed: "Forget it, scholar, surrender. You can't win against the officials."
"good."
"Um?"
Wang Yaksha thought he was hallucinating, but he didn't expect Li Qiong to push Wang Qi towards him. Xiao Yaksha's attention was always on Wang Shizhong and Jin Sai. He didn't expect that this thin Uncle Li had such a big body. He staggered due to his strength. Although he did not fall, he did collide with Wang De.
Then, a fence fell from above, isolating the Wang family and his son to the side of Tang Dao, while the three of them and the two old men stood on the side of Han Dao.
"Scholar, what do you want to do?!"
Li Qiong looked at him and ordered Jin Sai:
"Since Zhao Guan's family is not interested in immortality, let him make another choice."
"Whether we want the elite of the Song Dynasty King's Division in this troop transport road, or the hundreds of thousands of people in Bozhou City."
"You go out from Gunxue Road and tell Zhao Guan's house the original words, asking him to make a choice. Otherwise, many people will die, many, many people will die."
