Wind and Rain Empire

Chapter 61 Countermeasures

In the evening, in Lan Xueyi's tent, she was processing the military report that had been put on hold for a while, when Xiaosi came to report outside the tent

"General Lan, there is news"

"Come in"

Lan Xueyi was sitting at the desk, writing a letter, when Xiaosi came in, she continued to write as usual in the military camp without raising her head.

"you say"

small four newspapers

"The prince, princess and queen of Xixia have been properly settled in the prefect's mansion and additional soldiers have been sent to guard them"

"Very good, is there any more?"

"Master Liang, the prefect, invites you to discuss matters in the past."

Lan Xueyi looked up and looked at Xiaosi

"now?"

"Yes"

"Prepare the horse"

Lan Xueyi finished writing the last few strokes extremely quickly, stood up, put on the cloak, and started to walk outside

Xiao Si cupped his hands, "Obey!" Then he ran out to lead the horse

Outside the residence of the magistrate of Xingyuan Prefecture

Zhang Tiancheng, Zhang Tianyu, and Lan Xueyi got off their horses, and the butler was waiting outside the door, and when they saw the three coming, they greeted them

The housekeeper hadn't seen Lan Xueyi for a long time, and looked at him carefully

"Your honor is General Lan and General Zhang?"

Lan Xueyi walked in while talking

"Butler, it's fine if you don't know General Zhang, but you don't even know this General in the past three months? Is this General a regular visitor to your house?"

The housekeeper quickly followed Lan Xueyi

"That's that, even if you kill the little one, you know General Lan, please come inside General Lan," he stretched out his hand to invite

Lan Xueyi, Zhang Tianyu and Zhang Tiancheng entered the magistrate's office.

In the living room, Li Xiaoliang was pacing and talking

"Now that the news from the spies has been confirmed, Li Quanshan, a bastard, actually did such a rebellious thing. He sent someone to kill the elder brother of a compatriot, and even wanted to kill us all on the way back. This bastard is really outrageous."

Li Siqin looked at Li Xiaoliang worriedly

"Brother, are we going back now?"

"Go back? What's the use of going back? The power is in his hands. If we go back, we will either be executed or put under house arrest by him, or we will be exiled..."

Li Xiaoliang paused while talking and shook his head

"No, we have to find a way"

"What do you think?"

"Don't think about it, he has already given us the answer"

Lan Xueyi walked into the living room and threw a sheepskin scroll at Li Xiaoliang

Zhang Tianyu and Zhang Tiancheng followed up, and Li Xiaoliang read it quickly, then threw it on the ground with a sullen expression on his face

"This unashamed dog thing"

Li Siqin asked Li Xiaoliang

"Brother, uncle, what did he say?"

"He said that we can go back to Zhongxing Mansion to see him, as long as I hand over the queen and you, I can avoid death"

Li Siqin was puzzled and continued to ask

"Why is that?"

Li Xiaoliang continued to pace with his hands behind his back

"He said he wanted to marry the current queen and betroth you to his cousin"

Li Siqin pointed to himself and asked

"Betroth me to my cousin? Isn't my cousin only 12 years old? Is he mentally ill?"

Li Xiaoliang shook his head

"It's all excuses. If you send you there, you don't know what he will do to you. He's just a shameless old bastard!"

Empress Murat of Xixia enters the door

"The two princes, my concubine is willing to go"

Li Xiaoliang glanced at Murat

"Queen, it's not a question of whether you want to go, but a question of whether you can go"

Murat bowed his head

"I understand that now our Emperor Xia is no longer alive, and I have no meaning in living, so I am willing to accompany you with death. Before that, my concubine will kill your uncle Li Quanshan."

Li Siqin looked at Murat

"You are a weak woman, how are you going to kill him?"

Murat took a step forward and looked at Li Siqin

"Didn't he want to make me his empress? Then we will do what we can, and you will send me back to the Zhongxing Mansion and dedicate me to Li Quanshan."

Li Xiaoliang vetoed it

"Your trip is too dangerous, and you cannot guarantee the success of the plan with your personal ability. On the contrary, if the plan fails, many people will be affected, so I will not hand you over just like this."

When Li Siqin heard it, he immediately agreed

"Queen, and I, I am willing to go with you, the two of us can kill him no matter what."

Li Xiaoliang thinks Li Siqin is unreasonable

"Little sister, are you crazy? Are you risking your life?"

"Brother, what he wants is the two of us. If I go, I can protect the queen."

Lan Xueyi stepped forward to suggest

"I have a way to ensure the success of the plan (to Li Xiaoliang) Brother, since your uncle is lustful, when you take the queen and Siqin to see your uncle, you say that you want to pay tribute to a few other beauties from the Song Dynasty Be loyal to him, and when he indulges in beauty, you will have a chance to take him down."

Zhang Tianyu looked around

"But how can we have any beautiful women here?"

Lan Xueyi pushed Zhang Tiancheng, and Zhang Tiancheng was pushed in front of everyone

"If you don't have one, get a few out"

Zhang Tiancheng looked at Lan Xueyi in surprise

"You mean... let me pretend to be a woman?"

Zhang Tianyu clapped his hands

"Hey! That's a good idea. There are so many soldiers in the camp. Just find two or three to pretend to be. If the camouflage is more subtle, you won't be noticed."

Lan Xueyi nods

"Exactly, after Li Quanshan relaxes his vigilance, you will act again"

Zhang Tiancheng complained angrily

"Why should I do this? I don't want to be a woman"

Lan Xueyi glanced at him

"You don't have to do it if you don't want to, then please just go home tomorrow, you won't be of much use anyway."

Li Xiaoliang shook his head

"Really, this trip is too dangerous. How can we ask you to help us do such a thing? You are almost sending us to the border, and then we will go through Tibet. On the way..."

Lan Xueyi stepped forward and patted Li Xiaoliang on the shoulder

"Senior brother, don't mention that. King Xia died because of our poor escort. Everything is our fault. So we will be responsible for you two before arriving at Zhongxing Mansion."

Li Siqin looked at Lan Xueyi and smiled gratifiedly, while Zhang Tiancheng showed embarrassment

"Xueyi, I still don't want to..."

Lan Xueyi stared straight ahead

"Called General"

"General, I..."

Lan Xueyi looked sideways at Zhang Tiancheng

"If you talk nonsense again, I will hit you with fifty military sticks, and try again."

Zhang Tiancheng cupped his hands helplessly

"Little one obeys, General Lan"

Outside the gate of the barracks in the morning, Lan Xueyi, Xiaosi and Jixiang were riding horses to get out of the camp, Zhang Tiancheng ran out

Zhang Tiancheng yelled at the backs of the three of them

"General, general, where are you going?"

Xiaosi asked softly beside Lan Xueyi

"General, someone called you"

Lan Xueyi replied calmly

"I heard you, ignore him"

Seeing Lan Xueyi ignoring him, Zhang Tiancheng ran to the horse and stopped the group of people, and Jixiang shouted

"Bold, dare to block the general's way!"

"General, where are you going? Can you take me with you?"

Lan Xueyi was riding on a horse, looking down at Zhang Tiancheng

"Where is the general going, is it possible that I still have to report to you? (serious) auspicious, drive him away"

Ji Xiang jumped off the horse, took out a whip from his pocket, and greeted Zhang Tiancheng, Zhang Tiancheng began to dodge left and right

Zhang Tiancheng circled around the horse and kept running around

Jixiang waved his whip in a fit of despair, pointing at Zhang Tiancheng and scolding

"You! If you have the guts, don't hide!"

Lan Xueyi shouted

"Little Four!"

Xiao Si immediately jumped off the horse and grabbed Zhang Tiancheng, and hit him on the back of the head, knocking him out all of a sudden, and Zhang Tiancheng fell to the side of the road

Ji Xiang and Xiao Si got on their horses, Lan Xueyi looked at the two of them

"This guy will deal with it after we come back, you two don't forget to remind me"

Ji Xiang and Xiao Si said in unison, "Yes, General!"

Lan Xueyi roared "Drive!" and the three of them left the camp on their horses.

At the market in Mian County, Zhang Tianyu and Li Siqin were strolling with their horses, and Lan Xueyi, Xiaosi, and Jixiang rode their horses

Lan Xueyi and his party dismounted and walked towards Li Siqin

"Have you been waiting here long?"

Li Siqin shook his head

"Actually, we have just arrived not long ago. (Looking around) Speaking of which, there are a lot of people here, and there are also a lot of things for sale."

"This is a morning market, which is unique to the region. The sales in cities like the capital have been scaled up, so we can't see them anymore. By the way, what are we going to buy today?"

Lan Xueyi asked

Li Siqin counted with her fingers

"In order for the plan to be successfully implemented, we must purchase some costume jewelry and rouge powder, otherwise what can we use to pretend to be a woman? (Looking at Lan Xueyi) Do you have women's clothing?"

Lan Xueyi was a little surprised when asked

"Me? I've had one thing since I was a child. You've seen it before. It's in the capital."

Now it was Li Siqin who was surprised

"What? Not even you?"

Ji Xiang immediately asked

"Hey, Princess Siqin, is there anything special about choosing clothes?"

Li Siqin crossed her waist

"Ouch! There is a lot of knowledge here, materials, textures, colors, and weights all have to be considered!"

Lan Xueyi smiles

"I have to bring a woman back today, otherwise we will all be like blind cats"

Everyone looked at Lan Xueyi, and Lan Xueyi looked at everyone puzzled.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Zhang Tianyu smiled and sighed

"Hey, the gap!"

Li Siqin Zhang Luo

"Then let's go, I saw a few fabric sellers walking forward, maybe there is one in front"

Xiao Si shook the reins in his hand

"Then, hand over everyone's horses to your subordinates to lead them!"

Ji Xiang throws the reins to Xiao Si

"Be careful not to be led away by these horses"

Xiaosi gave Jixiang a punch

"How is it possible! You underestimate me too much"

Everyone handed over the reins to Xiao Si

A group of people walked forward, and it didn't take long to see a silk and satin shop with the words "appraisal clothes" hanging on it.

Lan Xueyi looks at the scenery while walking

"To be honest, the general has stayed here for so many years and has never visited here."

Li Siqin pointed to the two words on the sign and asked

"What do these two words mean?"

Ji Xiang quickly explained

"Back to the princess, these two words are pronounced as "juyi", which is a place that sells old clothes."

Li Siqin looked at Jixiang with wide eyes in confusion

"Who's going to sell used clothes? And who's going to buy them?"

auspicious smile

"The clothes made by big families in the county are sold here if they don't want them. Since the price will be lower than custom-made clothes, some people will buy them."

Li Siqin looked at Lan Xueyi

"Does that mean we're going to buy used clothes?"

Zhang Tianyu shook his head

"Hey! How can we wear old clothes? They have to be customized."

Lan Xueyi looked at Zhang Tianyu

"Customization can only be worn after the clothes are finished. If we are in a hurry, we can't consider customization."

"Then should we buy old ones or custom-made ones?"

Li Siqin asked Lan Xueyi

"That depends on how old the old ones are here. If they are too old to wear, they can only be customized."

A group of people walked into the house
