The Beloved in the Palm

Chapter 220 Unlucky!

After learning that King Xuan was approaching Yizhou but had not yet mobilized his troops, King Wei was very happy. This was the right time for him to show his strength.

So when he arrived, he did not rest and went straight to the general's tent.

King Wei's personal guards walked on the right and opened the curtain for him.

He stood at the door, but did not rush in. Instead, he bowed and said, "Brother, I haven't seen you for many days. How are you?"

King Xuan sat upright in the tent, and several fierce generals sat on his left and right.

When King Wei's voice sounded, they turned their heads and stared at King Wei.

King Wei was startled and instinctively wanted to retreat, but thinking of his current status, he held back.

He thought to himself, these people are really rude!

At this time, Fang Chengzhong stepped forward to greet the King of Wei and whispered, "It's not good, Your Highness."

The King of Wei was attracted by the first half of the sentence and didn't bother to rebuke Fang Chengzhong for being rude. He spoke before the King of Xuan spoke.

"It's not good?" The King of Wei frowned and showed an anxious look, "Is it that the Meng army is particularly fierce? Even my brother..."

Unbeatable?

The King of Wei did not say those three words directly.

The King of Wei's mood was very complicated for a while.

There was a little bit of secret joy. King Xuan was afraid of difficulties!

But there was also a little bit of hidden worry. If it were him, wouldn't it be more difficult?

"It should be said that it was terrible. Our princess disappeared..." Fang Chengzhong's tone became heavier.

He glanced at the army waiting in the distance behind the King of Wei.

What a big battle.

Fang Chengzhong was even more unhappy, but he said, "Since the Prince of Wei has come, I'm afraid this matter will have to be entrusted to the Prince of Wei."

The Prince of Wei was stunned for a moment before blurting out, "Xue Qingyin is missing?"

He paused, and felt that it was inappropriate to call her by her name. After calming down, he awkwardly changed his words and said, "Sister-in-law... is missing? How could this be? Could it be that... she fell into the hands of the Meng people?"

The anxious look on the Prince of Wei's face gradually became more intense.

Fang Chengzhong looked at his expression and suddenly had an idea...

The princess may not be considered "missing"!

His Highness Xuan Wang likes the princess so much, but he is still very calm. Compared with the situation of the Prince of Wei at this time, the Prince of Xuan seems to have everything under control.

No wonder...

No wonder the Prince of Wei came to seize power, and His Highness did not have any emotional ups and downs.

Even the matter of "rescuing" the princess can be handed over to others...

Fang Chengzhong's heart was instantly calmed, but his expression did not change, and his brows were frowned more than the Prince of Wei.

"This matter... leave it to me! I think my brother is in a bad mood, so I won't bother him any more." The King of Wei bowed again and turned to leave.

He even had to run to the back.

He was anxious to go back and discuss with He Songning.

He was also anxious to get farther away... lest the King of Xuan lose his wife and vent his anger on him.

He had just become the Grand Marshal of the March, so he must not lose face in front of his subordinates.

As soon as the King of Wei walked away, the generals sitting below the King of Xuan immediately spoke up and said bitterly: "What kind of war can the King of Wei fight? He took away your command right as soon as he came, which is really too much!"

"It was like this in the capital before, and it is still like this now that you have come to the fiefdom! Your Highness has fought for the court for many years, but has the court ever considered your Highness?"

"The princess' whereabouts are unknown, but your Highness can only reluctantly hand her over to the King of Wei to rescue... but I don't know if the King of Wei can afford it?"

The more they talked, the angrier they became.

The words were just short of expressing dissatisfaction with Emperor Liang De directly.

Fang Chengzhong hurriedly advised: "Everyone, everyone, there are so many people talking, let's swallow these words back into our stomachs."

They suddenly stopped talking, sighed heavily, and then turned to look at King Xuan, with some hidden worries in their eyes: "Your Highness..."

King Xuan's face was still cold, he said: "Go back."

"Princess..."

"I will find a way."

"Alas... yes."

They looked at King Xuan's cold and unmoving appearance, and felt that His Highness was forbearing.

There were too many injustices, which made them all feel resentful towards the one in the capital.

King Xuan took their expressions into his eyes.

First, Yin Yin "disappeared".

Then King Wei arrived.

The army immediately became united against the enemy...

He lowered his eyes and drank tea.

He thought, sometimes bad things are good things.

Xue Qingyin finished her meal and stood up to leave the tent.

She was stopped after taking two steps.

She was a "hostage" and naturally could not move around freely.

"Then go and invite your king." Xue Qingyin was not in a hurry at all.

With the Meng king accompanying her, what can't she do in the Meng camp?

The guard did not doubt it, just thinking that she had something to say to the king, and immediately went to invite her.

"Do you want to talk to me about the King of Wei?" The Meng king came close soon.

Xue Qingyin shook her head: "No."

"That's..."

"I ate too much, I have to walk around to digest it."

"..."

"Who told me to be a hostage? I have to ask the king to accompany me." Xue Qingyin said lightly.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with using the Meng king as an escort.

"The king is busy with all kinds of things, why don't I accompany this girl? This girl is a woman from the Central Plains, right?" But a voice interrupted from the side.

Xue Qingyin turned her head to look over.

Then she saw a man dressed in Central Plains clothing, smiling at her.

The King of Meng said to the man with a smile: "What girl? This is the Princess Xuan of your Liang Dynasty."

The man was shocked, and then said: "The King is really amazing! He even captured the Princess Xuan."

Xue Qingyin frowned slightly, looked at the man, and guessed: "Are you from Yizhou?"

The man was shocked, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

But this gesture undoubtedly showed that Xue Qingyin had guessed it.

The King of Meng smiled and said: "You see, your Princess of Liang Dynasty is really smart. She guessed your identity at a glance."

The man's face immediately looked like he had eaten a bowl of rotten rice.

After the King of Meng said that, he continued to say to Xue Qingyin: "He is a subordinate of the Yizhou Jiedushi, named Xue Liang."

Xue Qingyin: "..."

He has the same surname as her, but he is still so flattering.

It's really unlucky!

Xue Qingyin's eyes moved, but she suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly, "Are you Qiao Teng's subordinate? Then where is Qiao Teng?"

The officials of the palace who escaped at that time only said that Qiao Teng's whereabouts were unknown.

She remembered that Qiao Teng was Qiao Xinyu's father.
