The Beloved in the Palm

Chapter 219: Feeling suspicious

Lin Gu quickly summoned the generals, and when he asked, no one knew.

"Then he can only be taken away by General Dou." Lin Gu said solemnly.

After all, they are all from the Xingyuan Army. Of course, Yao Minghui has to speak for Dou Ruyun: "There should be a risk of exposing his identity before he would take the risk of directly kidnapping the person. This is a good thing. The Imperial Master has an extra hostage."

Lin Gu: "...But where did the hostages go?"

Give him the hostage instead!

Yao Minghui frowned, thinking this was too bizarre.

"Did they be discovered by Prince Xuan's guards when they were kidnapped? They were pursued by soldiers, so they had to take a detour, so they didn't arrive in Yizhou for a long time?" he guessed.

"Will King Xuan go crazy?" Suddenly a general asked.

Yao Minghui: "What?"

The general said: "What happened in Beidi seems like yesterday. I really didn't expect him to go crazy now."

Yao Minghui said solemnly: "It's so difficult to attack the Liang Dynasty. You and I already know it. But I didn't expect... It happened so well that something happened to Princess Xuan in the capital, and King Xuan asked to change the title to Yizhou. Otherwise, now, We have already reached Fengxiang Mansion and are approaching Jingzhao Mansion."

Lin Gu pondered for a moment and quickly came up with an idea: "Find a random woman in Yizhou, cut off her hands and send them to King Xuan. Since he thinks I kidnapped his princess, let him think so. I We must fight quickly.”

Yao Minghui interrupted: "Do you think anyone can pretend to be Princess Xuan?"

"How can you recognize someone if you cut off your hand?"

"Beijing calls her 'vase beauty', which shows that even stupidity can't hide her stunning beauty. And for a woman from the capital who was raised as pampered as she is... how can anyone in the border town pretend to be her? You can tell the difference at the first sight of her skin. "

Lin Gu frowned: "In your opinion..."

Yao Minghui said: "Do you know about King Xuan's rebellion against the Anxi Army?"

"Why are you talking about this for no reason?"

"When King Xuan left the capital, he returned part of his army to the emperor. The emperor in turn gave him the Anxi army."

Lin Gu understood: "Can the Anxi Army provoke... I wonder where they are stationed?"

"If I were King Xuan, I would not lead the Anxi army to Yizhou, lest trouble occur on the battlefield and endanger the lives of my family." Yao Minghui said firmly, "I will definitely stay in Xingzhou!"

Lin Gu narrowed his eyes: "You want to attack from both front and back."

Yao Minghui said: "That's what I mean."

This man is indeed somewhat capable and has not been dazzled by King Xuan's fame.

"The original idea was to lure King Xuan into the city and kill him, but the spies sent out have not yet returned with a message." Lin Gu shook his head, "Just follow General Yao's wishes. You can march and fight better than me."

Yao Minghui's face turned slightly warm and he nodded.

This is why Prince Zhang's old tribe united with the Mon people.

The Mon people are not a barbarian nation.

They also unified writing and reading, and were more able to work together. Those in high positions are not scornful and disdainful. On the contrary, they can put themselves in low positions and ask for advice generously.

These "rebellious ministers" of the Liang Dynasty were only like honored guests here.

"While the imperial army has not yet been mobilized...if the Xuanwu Army arrives at once, no matter how thick your city wall is, you will not be a match for King Xuan." Yao Minghui said.

Lin Gu laughed loudly: "That's okay. From what you just said, I can also tell that the Emperor of Liang Dynasty was not at ease with his son. Otherwise, how could he take away part of the soldiers in his hand and divert the Anxi army instead? Give it to him? In this case, the emperor will probably not let all the rest of the Xuanwu Army come here, because this is King Xuan's fiefdom, and once they come, they will not go back. "

Yao Minghui said solemnly: "But things on the battlefield should not be left to chance."

Lin Gu said solemnly: "Yes."

Yao Minghui immediately recruited several more men and asked them to disguise themselves and sneak into Xingzhou.

Lin Gu said: "Princess Xuan was kidnapped, and now Xingzhou's entry and exit may be strictly controlled."

Yao Minghui smiled and said: "Why go into the city? Xingzhou City is small, not as big as Yizhou. Most of the troops are stationed in the suburbs."

Lin Gu sighed: "Having General Yao is really a blessing for the dynasty."

Yao Minghui paused and said suddenly: "There is one more thing..."

"Um?"

"You don't know much about Dou Ruyun's abilities, but I do. If he was just avoiding the pursuers, he wouldn't have heard anything from him so far. I think... it's very possible that he took a detour to the king's tent."

Lin Gu was shocked: "If that's the case, why are you hesitating? Immediately write a letter asking the king to send someone to me! I heard that Princess Xuan has another child in her belly... If this is put on the wall, I'm afraid that King Xuan will not bow his head. ? Even if he doesn’t like his wife, he still wants to save face!”

Lin Gu wrote the letter quickly.

That night it was in the hands of the Mon king.

The Mon king tore it apart expressionlessly.

Now that this time has come, of course he will not leave this Central Plains beauty to anyone.

Because faith is a secret message.

It's not surprising that he would tear it apart after seeing it.

Lin Gu didn't wait long before he saw the person who wrote the letter.

He looked back and asked, "Where are the people?"

Xiao Bing shook his head blankly: "The king didn't entrust anyone to me."

Lin Gu frowned: "Did General Yao guess wrong?"

Yao Minghui also frowned: "That's right. If it's wrong, I will at least tell you where Princess Xuan came from?"

Lin Gu felt unhappy in his heart.

"Then if it is really in the king's tent, why don't you give it to me? The king has read far better books on the Central Plains than me, but he was fooled by the so-called gentleman's way!" Lin Gu's tone became more and more unhappy.

Yao Minghui advised: "Just write and ask."

Lin Gu nodded.

Lin Gu sent three letters back in a row.

The ministers began to wonder: "Is the war going badly?" "If we are in trouble, shouldn't we send the hostage earlier?"

The Meng clan king kept silent.

When they asked.

He smiled: "I was just thinking about how I should reward the national teacher after he wins."

In the evening.

The Meng clan king came to Xue Qingyin's tent again and sighed: "I really have to kill him now."

Xue Qingyin looked at him in confusion.

The Meng clan king said: "The national teacher sent three letters to ask me for you, how can I hand you over?"

Xue Qingyin thought to herself, are you reluctant to give you up?

You are upset because you sent three letters in a row.

"Reward him with two more generals." Xue Qingyin gave him advice.

"Hmm?" The Meng clan king paused, then reacted and asked: "The bigger the better, right?"

Xue Qingyin nodded.

The next day.

An imperial edict was sent to the camp of King Xuan.

"Your Majesty means that Your Highness should be patient and not to mobilize troops easily. King Wei will lead the army to arrive soon."

After hearing this, King Xuan's face did not change, but Fang Chengzhong was full of anger.

"Our princess is lost!" he blurted out.

You told us to be patient?

"What?" The herald officer was also stunned.

King Xuan waved his hand: "Take him down and settle him down first."

The herald officer shuddered, fearing that King Xuan would vent his anger on him. So he opened his mouth, but finally dared not say anything.

"What does your majesty think? Send King Wei... His dish is not enough for others to eat!" Fang Chengzhong scolded.

King Xuan glanced at him.

Fang Chengzhong quickly shut up.

King Wei was going to war for the first time, full of ambition, so he raised the flag and marched all the way, so impressive!

He didn't even care about Qiao Xinyu's body.

He thought that she wanted to come anyway...

This was too conspicuous, and the news naturally spread to the Meng army.

"Bad news, your Liang Dynasty emperor really doesn't trust your husband, and actually sent another son to lead the army. Your husband is being guarded against." The Meng king immediately found Xue Qingyin after receiving the news.

Another son?

Xue Qingyin raised her eyebrows.

Emperor Liang De had several sons, but not many of them were adults...

He Songning hasn't recognized him yet, it must not be him.

Then it can only be... "King of Wei?"

"That's right."

Xue Qingyin's mouth twitched.

This idiot.

"Well, now you can get what you want. Lin Gu will win the first battle."
