Chu Zhao didn't know that Xu Hui had already set off for Xirong, nor did he know that Feng Guanlan had made up his mind to cut off her food and grass, and encouraged the ghost of He Yunjie to seek revenge on her.
At this time, she had followed Sulekundu into Xirong from Yumen Pass.
Yumen Pass is the passage for jade tribute from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, so it is named "Jade Gate". Among several countries rich in jade, the imperial jade of Xirong Kingdom is the most famous.
Xirong also developed from an unknown small country to the rich and powerful leader of the Western Regions because its ancestors had paid jade tribute to the Central Plains for generations and received the support of the Han Dynasty.
However, with the development of national power, there was also the ambition and courage of those in power. They believed that they were strong enough to no longer rely on the Han Dynasty for survival, so they began to feel rebellious and even eager to annex their former financial masters.
So, 200 years ago, they took advantage of the chaos of the Han Dynasty, gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Yumen Pass, and forcibly occupied the land in Liangzhou, preparing to fight from Liangzhou to the Central Plains.
Unfortunately, before they could approach the Central Plains, they were intercepted by Xiao Chi's army outside Chang'an City. After three days and three nights of fighting, they retreated steadily and withdrew from Yumen Pass from Liangzhou.
Even so, Xiao Chi still pursued them and beat them all the way from Yumen Pass back to their hometown in Xirong. They did not give up until the then monarch personally raised a white flag at the city gate to surrender.
Because of this battle, Xiao Chi became the iron-blooded god of war who frightened the countries in the Western Regions.
History is always surprisingly similar. In the past 200 years, the Dayan Dynasty has experienced from prosperity to decline, and the defeated country once again made plans to fish in troubled waters.
But they never dreamed that the iron-blooded general who had frightened them back then was also back.
Chu Zhao looked at the yellow sand in the sky outside Yumen Pass and couldn't help but want to laugh.
The Xirong people were defeated by Xiao Chi 200 years ago. If they are defeated by Xiao Chi again 200 years later, this will be an inevitable fate.
I wonder if they will doubt their life from now on?
But having said that, if the country is destroyed, their lives will end here. Just like a country called Loulan on the Silk Road, it was once so prosperous and glorious, but it was not buried in the long yellow sand in the end. Among them?
"why are you laughing?"
Sule Kundu and Chu Zhao were sitting in the same carriage. Seeing her happy smile, he had to admire her good attitude, "I really can't figure out why you, a prisoner, can smile so happily. Could it be that you have nothing but a smile on your face?" Are there any other plots to use poison against this king?"
"No, Your Highness the Prince is overthinking." Chu Zhao shifted his gaze from the endless sand dunes to his face, put down the car curtain and said with a smile, "I am a born optimist. No matter what the situation, I have to do it." Keep a good attitude and you won’t make your life miserable haha.”
Sulekun didn't believe it, always feeling that she had some conspiracy, and warned her with a cold face: "You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise I would rather die of poison than take you to hell with me."
"Okay!" Chu Zhao spread his hands disapprovingly, "His Highness may not believe it. Even if I go to hell, Lord Hell will not accept me. He will even send me back respectfully."
"..." Sulekun was speechless.
Of course he wouldn't believe this woman's nonsense, he would just think that she was too arrogant.
"When a person dies, he is dead. Who else do you think you can send back if you haven't seen the Lord of Hell?"
"I am Xi Hedi, the founding empress of the Great Yan Dynasty. Don't you know, Your Highness?" Chu Zhao said seriously, "I came back this time because Lord Yama begged me to come back."
Sule Kundu was even more speechless.
Maybe it was too boring to travel in this vast Gobi desert. Although he felt that this woman was talkative, he was still willing to chat with her to pass the boring time.
"Then tell me, why did Lord Yama ask you to come back?" he asked casually.
"Of course it's to deal with you restless little countries!" Chu Zhao winked at him and said mysteriously, "Your Highness probably doesn't know yet, but Xiao Chi, the great general of the year, is also back?"
"What?" Sulekun was shocked. He clearly didn't believe it, but he couldn't help but ask, "Where is he?"
Chu Zhao laughed: "He was in Xining, and your brother died in his hands."
Sule Kundu's expression suddenly changed: "You mean, the General Xiao who killed my brother was Xiao Chi?"
"Yes, who else besides him can annihilate your brother's entire army in one night?" Chu Zhao smiled and approached him, "Xiao Chi is your Xirong's nemesis. If your Highness does not want your Xirong to be destroyed, , you'd better be polite to me, otherwise my General Xiao will definitely turn the entire Xirong into ruins."
"That's nonsense!" Sulekundu's eyes suddenly turned cold and he said sternly, "Don't even think about using such nonsense to scare me. I won't believe it."
Chu Zhao raised his eyebrows, sat back and leaned against the car wall: "If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. We have to wait and see."
Sule Kundu looked at her face with cold eyes like knives for a long time, and finally fell silent.
There was not a word of truth in this woman's mouth, and he would not listen to her nonsense again, lest she disturbed his mind.
He would not believe such nonsense that Emperor Xihe was reborn and the general was reincarnated.
Seeing his silence, Chu Zhao stopped speaking and closed his eyes to fall asleep.
After dark, the team camped in an open area. Chu Zhao cooked a pot of herbs for Sulekundu that they bought before leaving Liangzhou.
In order to temporarily suppress the toxicity in her body, Sulekundu takes the decoction she boiled by herself every day.
In order to prevent her from adding other things to the medicine, Sulekundu always asked her to cook more and drink it in front of him.
Chu Zhao never resisted, and drank it down happily every time.
It was so refreshing that Sulekun felt that her cheerfulness was all a conspiracy.
Along the way, the thing he said most to Chu Zhao was, "You'd better not play any tricks. I'm not that easily fooled."
Chu Zhao always smiled and said nothing when he heard this.
This reaction made Sulekundu even more suspicious.
A few days later, when they were about to arrive at the King's City of Xirong, the spies sent the latest information, saying that a general calling himself General Xiao had assembled a hundred thousand soldiers and horses and was heading towards Xirong. He had already passed Yumen Pass.
"A hundred thousand troops? Where did they get so many people?" Sulekun was shocked and a little unconvinced, "Liangzhou and Xining have been fighting for several months, and everyone is almost dead. How can they get together?" Enough for 10 people, they must be bluffing, trying to scare us."
"Then don't panic, don't be afraid, and don't believe it." Chu Zhao said, "They will come over sooner or later. Your Highness will know with your own eyes when the time comes."
Sule Kundu sneered and said harshly: "So what if there are a hundred thousand troops? Didn't you say that he is Xiao Chi and you are Emperor Xihe? I want to see that the woman he loves is in my hands. He Do you dare to move forward?"
"He dares, I guarantee he will definitely dare." Chu Zhao said, "Although he loves me, he will not hesitate in the face of personal emotions and national justice. If he hesitates even once, he is not worthy of my loving him for 200 years. "
Sulekun was stunned and remained silent for a long time.
What this woman said seemed to be true. Could it be that she was really the reincarnation of Emperor Xihe, and that the person who was coming to kill Xirong according to the intelligence was really General Xiao Chi?
No, it's not possible.
How can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world?
They Xirong can't be so unlucky, running into General Xiao every time, right?
At this time, she had followed Sulekundu into Xirong from Yumen Pass.
