Chapter 953
Liaodong City has returned to calm, because the Tang cavalry outside the city have retreated.

The soldiers on the city wall also relaxed. Although they knew that the Tang army would attack sooner or later, they haven't come yet, so it's only a matter of time to hide for a while.

"It seems that Tang Jun is really playing tricks to lure us out of the city, otherwise he wouldn't have retreated so quickly."

"Yeah, yeah, everyone said that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was so powerful, but in fact he wasn't that great!"

"It's the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who underestimated us! He didn't even think about it, our ancestors blocked the million-strong army of the former Sui Dynasty!"

"Hey, look, there seem to be cavalry coming!"

"Where is it, where is it, is Tang Jun coming to harass again?"

"Look, where are they? There are only two riders!"

"There are only two cavalry. It can't be the Tang army. Could it be that Jian'an City sent cavalry for help? Could it be that Jian'an City can't resist so quickly?"

"Here we come, hey, look how this costume looks like a Tang Dynasty man!"

"Could it be that the comrades in Jian'an City changed into the costumes of the people of Tang Dynasty to break out of the siege?"

"It's not impossible!"

"Should I ring the alarm bell?"

"No need, it's only two riders, what's worth sounding the alarm? Could it be possible to attack the city?"

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this. There are tens of thousands of troops in the city, and each of them can drown them with a single spit.

While everyone was discussing, the two riders had already arrived under the city wall.

"Listen, people on the city wall, we are the imperial guards of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and we are here to give a generous gift to Gao Yanshou, the northern Xie Sa, by His Majesty's orders!"

The people on the city wall are already stunned. These two people in the city are really from the Tang Dynasty, and they even sent generous gifts to Master Xie Sa?
What's the situation?
Why does it feel like a weasel greets the chicken for the New Year?

No, no, how could their master Xie Sa be a chicken?

"Just wait until we report back!" They really didn't dare to spread the word.

In the Xunsa mansion, the generals have not yet returned. Although the Tang cavalry outside the city have retreated, the mood of the generals has not completely calmed down.

Because these Tang cavalry came and left strangely, it always felt like they came and slipped away before going back.

"Report, Sir Xisa, two Tang people came from outside the city, saying that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has sent a generous gift to Lord Xisa!"

The generals couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Gao Yanshou laughed calmly when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is also at the end of his rope, and he even wanted to give me some kind of gift to bribe me. It's really funny. My Gao family has received the favor of the king, so how could I be bribed?" ? I'm curious, what does the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty want to bribe me with? The throne of the Tang Dynasty? Then I can think about it!"

All the generals felt relieved when they heard this. Just now they thought that Master Xie Sa had some secret connection with Datang, but it turned out that there was no such thing. The relieved generals couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Extremely extreme, if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty buys it with the throne, then it doesn't matter if Master Xie Sa obeys them!"

"That's right, that's right, Datang will be our Goguryeo territory from now on!"

"Lord Xisa, do you want to let those two Tang people in?"

Gao Yanshou got up and paced, pondered: "I'm afraid that the gift given by those two Tang people is fake, but they are trying to play some tricks! So, don't open the city gate to let them in. As for what the emperor said If it’s a heavy gift, then put a rattan basket down, pull up the heavy gift, and let’s all open our eyes and see what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can give us!”

In fact, Gao Yanshou really coveted the so-called heavy gifts of the Tang Dynasty, the gift that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can give must be very expensive!

It's a pity that the person who reported it said it in front of all the generals, so it was difficult for him to keep it in private, so he could only see what the gift was.

Although the generals felt that there was nothing to guard against with just two Great Tang cavalrymen, there was nothing wrong with being cautious.

"What Lord Xisa said is that humble officials take orders!"

People on the city wall were also talking about it, not knowing what the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was up to, nor what the important ceremony was.

"Listen to the people of the Tang Dynasty in the city, our Master Xie Sa said, put the important gift of your Tang emperor in the rattan basket, as for you, it is inconvenient for us Master Xie Sa to see you, so you can go back and forth wherever you come from! "

The two imperial guards under the city wall were a little confused. Since it was inconvenient to see them, how could it be convenient for them to accept heavy gifts?This is clearly not daring to open the city gate!
Xisa is the governor of Goguryeo, the dignified governor of Goguryeo, this is really embarrassing!

However, as long as the heavy gift is delivered, it is fine, and there is no need to go to see the Goguryeo's Sasa.

"Forget it, then we will put the heavy gift in the rattan basket, and please make a special trip to give it to you!" The guard shouted loudly.

In fact, they were not worried at all. After all, so many people on the city wall had heard it, and no one dared to hide the gift. What's more, it was not a gift, but two heads. Who would hide it?

The two guards put the wooden box on the rattan basket, watched the rattan basket being pulled up, and then drove away with confidence.

The soldiers on the city wall took out the wooden box and hurriedly sent it to the Cansa mansion.

All the generals have not left yet, everyone is very curious, what kind of gift is the so-called heavy gift of the Tang Emperor?
The soldiers of the Xunsa mansion brought up the two wooden boxes, and the eyes of all the generals fell on the wooden boxes.

Gao Yanshou's gaze couldn't help but his eyes lit up, this wooden box is expensive and extraordinary at first glance, and the gift in the wooden box must be even more extraordinary!
"Hurry up and open it to see what's inside. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty can't be petty, right? If it's really a treasure, it's just right to present it to the king!" Gao Yanshou laughed.

After hearing this, the guards quickly opened the wooden box. Before they could fully open the wooden box, they smelled a bloody smell, and suddenly had a bad premonition in their hearts.

When the wooden box was opened, there were actually two human heads inside!

"It's a human head!"

"It's the first level!"

"Whose head is it?"

"Whose head is it?"

A group of generals couldn't help exclaiming, they always thought that the wooden box was really a great gift, a treasure from the Tang Emperor, and wanted to bribe Lord Xisa, but they never expected that there were actually two heads in the wooden box.

Gao Yanshou was also taken aback, in fact, the gap between this and expectation was too great.

"It turned out to be two heads! Did the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty use this trick? Do you think that just two heads can scare us? It's so funny, let's see whose head it is!" Gao Yanshou laughed.

Gao Yanshou and a group of generals couldn't see whose head it was, but the two soldiers holding the head could see it clearly, so their faces turned pale all of a sudden.
