Bold, how dare you break Ben Hou

I haven't seen him for a few months, he seems to be a new person. I saw him for the first time in Chang'an city that day, but he is a weak young man. Who would have thought that such a gentle and courteous person would indeed have changed into a military uniform at this moment, with a smudge on his forehead. It is to take off the crown bestowed by Gu Jixiu.

If you send him to Sichuan to practice hard, maybe he can become a generation of face-changing masters.

Seeing Qingzhi staring at him like this, Mu Tai was not angry, but instead walked in: "Master Xinyang, long time no see."

Qingzhi pursed his lips and did not make a sound, and heard him continue to say: "Gu Wang, you seem to have been promoted to a noble, not just a marquis, right, Baili Xiang?"

Qingzhi sneered: "Gu? A mere Tartar, actually imitated me to prosper the dynasty. It's a pity. Gu is just what the emperor called himself thousands of years ago. You want to rebel, but you are not brave enough. If you dare to call "Zhen" falsely, you can only choose another name, but in my eyes, he is just a clown, and he is just a clown."

Mu Tai also just smiled, not angry: "Oh, it's so boring to be seen through by Baili Xiang so easily."

Qing Zhibu continued to talk to him in a roundabout way, pointing to the point: "You should know that I came here as an envoy to persuade you to surrender this time. The emperor has a decree. If you can return from the wrong way, you will be spared from death. It can be a blessing to the common people in the world.”

"Your Majesty? Gu is the Emperor of Xiliang, so how could the Emperor have a purpose?"

Qing Zhi laughed out loud, he didn't expect Mu Tai to react like this, "So you have already made up your mind?"

"What do you think? Lord Baili?"

Qing Zhi smiled unabated, and nodded along: "Yes, if you hadn't made up your mind to go to war with Da Xing Dynasty, you wouldn't just tie me up and throw me here."

"As expected of Baili Xiang." Mu Tai squinted his eyes: "But I also want to hear your so-called persuasion words to persuade you to surrender. Let's see what you can say?—"

Qing Zhi shook his head and said: "I never thought of persuading you to surrender, because I knew from the beginning that you would never be persuaded. I came here only for the soldiers of my Xing Dynasty."

Rebellion is not about three-year-olds getting into a fight, and when they get tired of playing, they don't take it seriously.This is a matter related to his wealth and life, so Mu Tai wouldn't be so stupid as to eat and hold on and say, oops, I haven't exercised for a long time, let's play a rebellion and exercise our muscles and bones!

Mu Tai was a little surprised when he said this, "..."

"It's just that you, as the majesty of Xiliang, don't think about your people, and only focus on your own selfish desires. Even if you succeed, Xiliang will become an independent country again. You have absolute confidence that you will take over this country. Is the construction better? Your Xiliang is just a land in the northern wilderness. If you don't have the clothing and food supplies from the Central Plains, do you really think that your people will live better?" Qingzhi sneered. "For example, in winter now, I saw all the way when I was escorted. Many people didn't even have a warm coat, and they were wrapped in rags to barely resist the cold. As the weather gets colder and colder, in the deep winter, you Without being able to graze, wouldn’t many people starve to death?”

"Well--"

Qingzhi didn't pay attention, was kicked hard by Mu Tai and fell to the ground.

There was a fishy smell in his mouth, and he spit out a mouthful of saliva, which was slightly red.

"Ha ha."

Knowing that he had angered Mu Tai, Qingzhi was not afraid, but excited.Left and right are just stabbing his head, making him angry and earning some money back.

"For your own selfish desires, you want others to suffer with you. The Xing Dynasty treats you well, and it is not a bad thing for you to rely on them to survive. Not to mention that you have a queen in Xiliang, if After all, maybe you have to call Gu Jixiu uncle! Or you have to call me too! Hahahaha!"

Qing Zhi looked at Mu Tai's leaving back and laughed loudly.

For the rest of the day, they were carried in that dark and unreasonable cage. Food was not delivered every day, and even if it was delivered, it was just leftovers.

Although Qingzhi is not a delicate life, but the shell of the young master is very delicate.The wind and cold I suffered before hadn't recovered, and now I came to Xiliang to blow the northwest wind, and I didn't eat well every day, so the natural illness came like a mountain.

Qingzhi curled up together, the smells of beef jerky and goat milk on the side impacted his sense of taste, he sighed, before in the mansion, he always disliked the lack of skill of the cooks in the mansion of the young master, now In comparison, that chef can be called a chef.

"how is he?"

There was a voice outside the door, and Qingzhi naturally pricked up his ears.

"&*..." It was a bunch of Xiliang dialect, so he had no choice but to give up with a sigh. During this period of time, he was locked in this temporary prison cell and knew nothing about the situation outside.Sometimes I want to take the opportunity to eavesdrop on the guards outside to see if I can get one or two pieces of information, but I fail because of language problems.

Sure enough, mastering a foreign language is very necessary!

The sound outside stopped, Qingzhi closed his eyes again, and gathered the rags on his body again - he was still a human being when he came, wearing gold and a fox fur coat.

After being locked up here by Mu Tai's order, I don't know if he acquiesced, the guards here changed every day, and all the valuable or useful things were taken away from him.Now Qingzhi is only wearing underwear, not even shoes.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps, Qingzhi stood up vigilantly, and saw someone coming, it was Mu Na.

Holding the steaming porridge in her hand, she said something to the back, and the guard had no choice but to lower the curtain, leaving the two of them alone.

"I know you people from the Central Plains are not used to food from the grassland, so you should eat this first." After saying that, he handed the bowl to Qing Zhi.

Qingzhi didn't even think about it, she stretched out her hand to snatch it, not afraid of being burned, just sucked it a few times, and it's bottomed out.

"Don't worry, I'll go to Grandma Su Ma to see if there is any rice left. You know, we don't produce rice in Xiliang—it's left over from the emperor's brother's visit last time."

Qingzhi threw the bowl aside, wrapped himself in the rags, and lay down again.

Mu Na squatted on the spot, at a loss, after thinking for a while, she moved closer, reached out and touched Tan Qingzhi's forehead, a little anxiously: "Are you sick?"

She didn't want to answer her at first, but Mu Na turned his body and saw Qing Zhi's pale face, she quickly patted him to wake him up: "You wear so little, and Xi Liang is much colder than your Chang'an, how can you bear it?"

Qing Zhiqiang raised his spirits, half-closed his eyes and smiled, "You know that too? Then your soldiers snatched my clothes, isn't it just because I can't stand it?"

"They..." Mu Na couldn't speak, and finally got up abruptly, took off her robe, and put it on for Qing Zhi.

A warm feeling came over, and Qingzhi didn't care anymore, and stretched out his hands to wrap them tightly.

"Wait!" Seeing him like this, Mu Na stood up, stomped her feet, and ran outside.Qingzhi didn't have any other energy, so he let her go.

It seemed that after a while, footsteps were heard again, and the curtain of the tent was lifted again. The footsteps heard belonged to two people.

"Second brother! Look at him—"

Hong Ji squatted down, took Qing Zhi's pulse carefully, and frowned even tighter.

After Qingzhi was arrested, he also asked the maharaja if he would kill him.But Mu Tai just smiled and didn't answer. He just explained to him what the ultimate purpose of the pre-war envoys of the Daxing Dynasty was.

"So Lord Baili... didn't mean to persuade him to surrender?" Hong Ji asked in surprise.

Mu Tai nodded, with a gloomy expression on his face: "Gu has been studying the culture of the Daxing Dynasty all along, in order to be able to win all battles as they say. Gu Jixiu's secret history is only known to them, but they don't know Gu Jixiu's early years. I knew something about it in "A Tale of Mountains and Seas", so as soon as they let go of the front foot this time and sent someone to come, I knew Gu Jixiu's conspiracy."

"That's why the majesty asked for Lord Baili to come?"

"Gu also heard about Bailiqing. During the Consort Contest, I wanted to observe in secret, but I didn't expect Gu Jixiu to come to my door in person. I thought I could make Gu Jixiu fancy as a concubine. He is a capable person, maybe all the rumors in Baili Qingzhi's market are not true. After all, you and I have heard of Bailiyi's reputation. But later—Gu discovered that he is indeed a vain prince Lord, you were born with a good name, but you are actually just a waste."

"...If he came here, we don't have to worry about any trouble." Hong Ji nodded and said, "In this case, Majesty, why do you need to abuse him like this? How about treating him as a prisoner of war? Anyway—in name He is also the messenger who came to ask for peace."

Hearing this, Mu Tai laughed loudly and asked: "Gu is indifferent to Baili Qingzhi. He is just a waste anyway. As far as Gu is concerned, he can't pose any threat. It's just that whenever Gu looks at his face, it is difficult to control yourself."

"His... face?" Hong Ji frowned, and Qingzhi's face was gradually outlined in front of his eyes, as if——somewhat understood.
