Chapter 196: The Covenant between the Two Kings
Outside the smoke and clouds, the fire shone through the sky, making the snowy night cold, like daylight.
Inside the city wall, the people of the King of Xiliang suddenly surrounded the cloaked people. Rama and Meizi who arrived later were surprised, "King of Xiliang, is he going to rebel?"
Seeing the enemy approaching step by step, the cloaked man waved his sword like rain, and cold lights slashed away. He said sternly: "Liu Tingxi, do you want to rebel?"
"Who, who is this person? He actually called the name of King Xiliang."
Everyone gathered their eyes and guessed in their hearts. How mighty Liu Tingxi was? He rushed towards him before the cloaked man could finish his words.
"Hoho, Minar, wear a cloak, I don't know you anymore? Also, does the Lord know about the dispatch of the Imperial Guards?"
The cape man was stunned, "Nonsense, when did the emperor transfer the army?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it! Then wait until I catch you..."
"Bang bang...bang bang", a firearm exploded, and Minar had a black hole in his hand and a musket with smoke.
Liu Tingxi was suspicious, "This guy is so good, right? I don't know where he got it? Well, that's great!"
A trace of cunning flashed in King Xiliang's eyes. He said to Rama behind the cloaked man: "Why don't you tie him up? This man is a spy from the Northern Tang Dynasty. He had an affair with the enemy country and dispatched the imperial guards. What are you doing?"
Rama was originally an imperial guard. When he heard the King of Xiliang ordered the cape to be captured, he questioned in his heart: "Prince, who is he?"
The cape man shouted: "Bastard, are you blind? I am Prime Minister Minar!" As he said that, the cape man pulled away the black veil covering his face.
"Oh, he is really Prime Minister Mi! Who should we listen to?" Rama and others were a little confused. The plum beside him was sober and whipped over and said, "Rama, who are you listening to?"
"Kill, kill..." Outside the city gate tower, there was a shocking sound of killing. Everyone hurriedly looked at it, and a large group of people rushed into the city gate, and a red-maned horse appeared immediately. The horse was full of heroic posture and fluttering clothes.
"Tsk tsk, how handsome is this general? He is so handsome!" Mei Zi smiled charmingly, raised her soul-catching eyes and threw them over.
It turned out that the person on the horse was Shangguan Zheng, the prince of Northern Tang. At this time, outside the Beimo City Gate had already been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside the Northern Tang army, and it was blocked from water.
The sound of trumpets sounded, and there were people and horses neighing, which caused panic and commotion in the city.
In the palace, there were scouts who reported: "Emperor, outside the city gate... all the troops of the Northern Tang Dynasty were surrounded. In the east gate, the King of Xiliang led soldiers to fight against each other, but there were only a handful of people and horses."
"What's going on, what about Zheng Chunhe?" Emperor Baili Lang looked frightened, his hands and feet trembling.
"Your Majesty, I have not seen Lord Zheng and others..." In the corner of the court, several guards responded. Suddenly, the officials in the court began to panic, like frightened birds, fleeing everywhere.
The Minister of War Jie Yue clapped his palms and roared: "Are you a rat or insect? If the country is in trouble, it will flee in panic. It is really hateful and sad!"
In an instant, he stepped on the hall gate and was guarding with anger. He commanded the guards to draw their swords in a flash, and the cold light flashed, blocking the ministers who were about to escape.
The emperor was also angry at the dragon throne in the palace. He angrily scolded the ministers below for their uselessness and virtue, saying things like loyalty to the emperor and serving the country, and that every man is responsible. However, at this time, there was also chaos, and the palace maids and eunuchs and concubines burst into tears. In the Qingle Palace, someone set off another fire. The raging fire spread, and the fire became bigger and bigger in the snow, burning half of the sky red. The sound of explosions and collapses... scared the concubines in the harem so much that they hugged their heads and fled, and they wailed for a while, and countless people were killed.
"Emperor, Empress Dowager, Empress..." Hu Tian robbed the earth, and the palace wall of Qingle Palace fell to the ground with a bang, killing a group of palace maids on the spot. Empress Hu Yue was seriously injured and fell in a pool of blood.
After hearing this, the emperor rushed to Qingle Palace without hesitation... The eunuchs and guards around him hurriedly stopped him: "Your Majesty, it's important to take care of the dragon body, and Empress Wu... She...is afraid she won't do it!"
"Quanyue, Qiongyue" Baili Lang cried in pain. His queen was pregnant with Liujia, her round belly was pressed by a thick wall, and the black and red blood had penetrated into thick snow.
"Your Majesty... Save... I'm going to save... I!" Jun Yue begged weakly, and the tears of sorrow washed the snowflakes on her cheeks.
"You, hurry up, save the queen, save the queen!" Baililang shouted loudly, but the guards and the palace people ignored them and only focused on robbing the palace's property.
Emperor Baililang was deeply sad and angry, and his roar continued in the sea of fireworks for a long time.
...
Hahaha... A sound of horse hooves came. There were already crowds of people inside and outside the palace. A large number of soldiers rushed into the palace. Several generals shouted at the horns: "The one who gave the Baililang will be rewarded with ten thousand taels!"
"Anyone who offers Baililang and anyone who offers jade seals will be rewarded with ten thousand taels!"
"Those who take the initiative to surrender will not be killed!"
The wind was heard and the morale was extremely high. Qin Zifei, the general of the Northern Tang Dynasty, read the letter of surrender over and over again.
㗭㗭㗭旭日…After a hustle and bustle, a group of officials walked out with white flags in Deqing Hall.
"Report to General, Baililang has already died in Qingle Palace..." The surrendered minister Musuli whispered.
"Where is the body?"
Qin Zifei said seriously: "I have to see people in my life, and I have to bury my body when I die!"
"Brothers, start the counting, and thorough investigations will be made in Yanyun Palace. Anyone who presents the jade seal or the emperor Baililang will report to the court. Your official position will be promoted to the third level and your salary will be doubled!"
Haha... squeak, a series of deep footprints were left on the snow. Everyone actively searched separately, just to capture the Emperor of the Northern Desert.
"Sir, I know where the jade seal is hidden. Once handed over, can I count the words of the adults?"
"Of course, what I promised will never stop!" Qin Zifei rode on the horse and promised solemnly.
On the other side, Liu Tingxi led the army to take down the palace. His general Xu Quan bravely took the lead, and Minar, the man with a cloak. Everyone at the scene was confused. How did the soldiers in Beimo assassinate their own people?
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It turns out that Zheng Chunhe, the Minister of Revenue in Beimo, entered the Beihan Pass under the protection of two guards, and the stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground.
While enjoying free accommodation and accommodation, they were waiting with peace of mind to go to the Liu family's Corps to handle the next day.
The north wind was whistling... The snow outside the window became heavier. After drinking and eating, Lord Zheng and the two guards were shaking and lying on the bed and fell asleep.
I don’t know how long I slept, but Lord Zheng felt that his hands and feet were so cold that they felt so cold... He wanted to rub his eyes, but his hands and feet couldn’t move... He was shocked and sweated out in a cold body. The alcohol was scared away most of the time...
"General Wu... Lord Zhang" Zheng Chunhe shouted loudly, but his voice was only rumbling in his throat, and he couldn't even hear it himself.
There seemed to be nothing else in his ear except the wind and snow roaring. He struggled for a long time, but still couldn't make a noise. His forehead and eyelids seemed to have lead blocks hanging. In a daze, Zheng Chunhe fell asleep again.
until…
"Hey, Lord Zheng, wake up..." A sharp voice called him. Then, with a puff, cold liquid sprayed on his face. Zheng Chunhe opened his eyes, and several faces were shaking in front of his eyes.
"Prince Xiliang, I finally see you!"
"Why, are you here to bring reinforcements?"
"Yes, yes! Prince, what's going on?"
Zheng Chunhe glanced at it and then realized that his hands and feet were tied to a strong position. However, he tried hard to remain calm.
"Oh, thank you Lord Zheng for your hard work! You have to feel wronged first. I will not hurt you. But, I am afraid that the people and affairs in Yanyun City will disappoint you! Now, the Northern Tang Kingdom is the only one who returns to the world and enjoys all families!"
He glanced at the two guards Wu and Zhang beside him and said calmly: Two brothers, welcome back to the Liu family's corps!"
"You? They are actually from the Liu family's army?" Zheng Chunhe looked at Prince Liu and the two guards in surprise.
"Yes, I'm going to tell you, we have been under the prince since we were young. For many years, our Liu family army has been hit by the court. Today, it's time for my Liu family corps to change our destiny!"
Guard Wu stared at Zheng Chunhe and said slightly excitedly.
"Also, I am Shangguan Zheng of the Northern Tang Dynasty. Haha... Haha, those who know the current affairs are heroes! Lord Zheng, give up. Looking at the present day, only the Northern Tang Dynasty can stabilize the world! Do you agree?" Shangguan Zheng said with his handsome eyes, bright and energetic.
After saying that, he raised his hand and gently tapped Zheng Chunhe's fingertips a few times... and immediately untie his paralysis acupoint.
"Okay, Lord Zheng will do it!"
Alas... Zheng Chunhe sighed. Tears were already pouring in his eyes.
In fact, when he asked for an order to go to the King of Xiliang, he was not sure that he could bring reinforcements. He even knew very well that the Northern Desert court had already been full of holes.
At this moment, even if he was so sad, angry, unwilling, and sad, it was a fact that this country would be out of power. The Northern Desert Dynasty was like snowflakes, gradually melting into the rolling world.
Facing Liu Tingxi's choice to surrender to the Northern Tang Dynasty... Zheng Chunhe burst into tears, and he was sad and pulled away his hair in an venting manner. He circled the snow for a long time, and finally staggered... and rushed into the vast white field like crazy.
