Demon girl, don't even think about my ruthlessness!

A group of people and horses entered the capital, and they rushed over the crowded crowd. To be precise, it is not called crossing, but the people who are afraid of death are scrambling to avoid it. It is reasonable that even first-rank officials cannot run amok on the streets of the capital. disturb the people.

But this team was an exception. The leading man was dressed in shiny black armor, with iron cloud patterns printed on his shoulders and knees, the pattern of a hungry tiger on his chest was ferocious and bloodthirsty, and a golden waist plate was tied around his muscular waist. .

A young policeman with tender faces wanted to stop this group of people for questioning, but was stopped by the old policeman. The experienced old man looked at the group of people, as if thinking of something, with deep scruples in his eyes.

The young policeman was still not convinced: "Why can't they be stopped? Even a general must have an order to gallop in the capital. Why can't these people of unknown origin be stopped for questioning?"

The old catcher stroked his half-gray beard, squinted his eyes slightly, and explained: "That's the Hungry Tiger Guard who directly belongs to the current Holy Majesty, and they usually carry out tasks in hidden places, and usually it's not a particularly important and urgent matter, and they won't even cover it up." If you don’t do it, it will be exposed in front of everyone.”

The young policeman nodded thoughtfully, looking at Hungry Tiger Guard's long-disappeared ponytail, he felt yearning in his heart.

Royal Palace.

Emperor Xuan Yi took a magnifying glass to look at the "Pictures of the Western Regions and Dangers". Next to him was General Wang Liangshan and Prime Minister Heping Hongbo. They discussed the strategy of food and distribution of troops to resist the Turkic army that came to burn and plunder every autumn and winter.

"Prime Minister, General Wang, see if you can take this piece of land." Emperor Xuan Yi pointed to the map ambitiously. There is a large prairie on it belonging to the Turkic barbarians, which has raised countless horses. As long as you get this prairie , the strength of his army can at least be increased by [-]%, so how can he not be overwhelmed.

Prime Minister Ping Hongbo said excitedly: "Your Majesty, we have been planning for many years. We have secretly recruited troops and bought horses for a long time. In order to reduce the loss of the army, we did not hesitate to deceive the Turkic barbarians with tricks, in order to wait for the day when the Turks attack and lurk around the Turks. The troops on the border will swarm up and encircle the Turkic army, and the Turkic territory will be owned by the Holy One."

Emperor Xuan Yi burst into laughter, and shouted several times: "Good! Good! Good! The group of Turkic nobles were fed with precious and luxurious gifts such as gold, silver, jewelry, porcelain, tea and silk. They were complacent and thought that I would fear them Who knows that after eating my gift, sooner or later you will have to break your guts in exchange for it! Hahaha—”

Prime Minister Ping Hongbo flattered and responded, and General Wang Liangshan frowned. The Turks would come every year to burn and plunder, and many of his soldiers died.

But the Holy Majesty said that he would get rid of the foreign troubles that have plagued him for many years in one fell swoop, and even pretended to be a cowardly and faint king, and offered gold and silver treasures, including the lives of the people and soldiers on the border. The country's long-dormant [-] troops completely wiped out the Turks.

At the last step of the plan, the [-] troops are ready to wait for the arrival of food and grass, which is the day of the Turks' demise.

Eunuch Liu entered the door from the outside, bowed his waist to Emperor Xuan Yi and said: "My lord, Hungry Tiger Guard has something important to report."

Emperor Xuan Yi frowned suspiciously. Generally, Hungry Tiger Guards were not concerned with important matters and would never leave the scope of their missions. This time, something must have happened when they suddenly went to Beijing.

"Call them in."

The leader of the Hungry Tiger Guard did not say much when he saw the Holy Majesty, and immediately reported: "Your Majesty, the Turkic army will arrive at the border in five days."

It was expected that the Turks would attack in two and a half months. At that time, they had already prepared enough food and grass, but now that the Turks attacked earlier, whether their plot was exposed.

Emperor Xuan Yi's face turned livid immediately, and his eyes showed a cold light: "Why!"

General Wang Liangshan then asked, "Has there been any accidents in Turkic?"

The leader of the Hungry Tiger Guard: "The holy snow mountain that has been enshrined by the Turks for many years spewed out lava, and many of the surrounding peaks became volcanoes. Khan, nobles and civilian soldiers, all ran to the border."

The cold light in Emperor Xuan Yi's eyes disappeared, it seemed that his plot was not exposed, but this natural disaster happened too unfortunately, if it was a month at night, their army would not be so hasty.

But looking at it from another angle, this volcanic eruption is not an opportunity, forcing the Turks from the sweat to the civilians to flee for their lives. There must be no preparations in a hurry, and they can just catch them all.

Emperor Xuan Yi sneered: "This time the Turks have thrown themselves into the trap, how can they not close their doors and beat the dogs... Prime Minister and General Wang will find a way to slow down the pace of the Turks as much as possible. The food and grass can be transported to the border in a month, or ten days."

Prime Minister Ping Hongbo suddenly came up with a plan: "Since ancient times, there have been marriages between the two countries. This time we sent the princess to negotiate. The wedding banquet is cumbersome and takes a long time to prepare. It just buys time for our army."

Emperor Xuan Yi thought for a moment, then agreed without hesitation.

"Good! But which princess should I send?"

……

The streets in the capital are a bit bleak, and the doors of every house are closed. Since the news of the Turkic attack spread in advance, the price of food has risen a lot immediately, which caused panic and scramble among the people for a while, and the capital

The starting price of the rice shop is twice as high as usual, and there is a limit to buy every day. The people who came to buy rice scolded them bloody.

Only the head of the rice shop knew that it wasn't that they wanted to increase the price, but that the granary was really running out of rice, and most of it was secretly transported in a carriage and left the capital long ago.

Princess House.

The turmoil outside has nothing to do with Xuan Hanyue, she is a princess of a country, and the people below have already prepared supplies, so it can be said that she can rest easy, but her heart is dull.

She's fine, but what about that female liar?

The maid Xiaogui opened the door, and saw the princess leaning against the window sill, her eyes half-closed, her shiny black hair draped over her shoulders, shadowy, her red eyes gloomy and unhappy.

I must have thought of that young lady again, I don't know why!With the princess's spoiled and self-willed temperament, she would let the liar go, and even ordered her servants to keep her mouth shut, concealing Yan Qing's identity as a woman.

But the master is the master after all, no matter how much she didn't understand and was not convinced, the liar still retreated under the connivance of the princess, and just left the capital today.

The maid Xiaogui sighed secretly, and helped the princess comb her hair: "Princess, that man left the capital today."

As soon as the words were finished, the maidservant Xiao Gui clearly felt that the princess's tender body trembled instantly, her brows were furrowed, and the indescribable sarcasm was fully displayed in that sneer.

"Get ready, the princess is going to enter the palace."

The maidservant, Xiao Gui, bent her knees and responded: "Xiao Gui will prepare immediately, may I ask who the princess wants to visit, so that Xiao Gui can prepare clothes for the princess."

Xuan Hanyue's eyes narrowed slightly: "Father, didn't he betroth the fifth princess to that barbarian prince a few days ago? That guy Xuan Zihe was crying like hell, and he was still pressed by the father in the palace to wait for the day of marriage .”

Few of the princesses who marry Turks will end well. The maidservant Xiaogui is chilled just thinking about it, but the princess has always hated the fifth princess. Why is she so concerned about her affairs this time, and asked curiously: "Where is the princess?" Do you want to intercede for the Fifth Princess?"

Xuan Hanyue smiled lightly, her eyes were so dark that she said, "I just want my father to choose someone else, so that I, the third princess, will marry the Turkic prince himself."

Maid Xiaogui: "...!!!"
