Red waist breaking line

Chapter 809

With a shout and a flash of fire, the two forces were already fighting each other. In the chaos, the soldier hid in the dark, picked up a stone, and put his strength on his finger. With a swish, the stone flew out like a locust, killing He Xige's most valued old subordinate, and then disappeared into the dark alley.

The conflict escalated immediately, and the two sides were ready to fight to the death. He Xige quickly got the news and led his troops to fight. When he saw his old subordinate lying dead on the street, he was too impatient to care about anything else and swung his knife at Daiqin's chest.

Daiqin was also angry after being beaten, and the resentment accumulated over the years poured out at this moment. In terms of martial arts, he was not inferior to He Xige, and now he was fighting for his life and death, so he went all out. He was calmer than He Xige, and he could patiently look for the opponent's flaws even in the fierce battle. Finally, he waited for an opportunity, raised his long sword, and killed He Xige with one blow.

When the personal soldiers saw the enemy general fall from his horse, their morale soared. They raised their heads and shouted, and rushed towards He Xige's residence in one go, engaging in a fierce battle with the remaining forces.

The internal fighting lasted until the early morning, and the faction led by Daiqin seized control of Yandang City. After Daiqin captured the captives and interrogated them for a while, he learned about Mu Tong and the city defense map. Daiqin felt cold in his heart, secretly sighed that he had been tricked, and hurriedly ordered someone to bring Mu Tong to the court. However, Mu Tong had already disappeared. After asking carefully, it turned out that a soldier had rushed into the back hall and took Mu Tong away. Daiqin counted with his fingers and probably the two of them had already left the city and it was difficult to catch them.

On the small road outside Yunzhong City, Hongye was carrying a medicine box and looking anxiously with Baishu. Listening carefully, there was the sound of horse hooves coming from far away. It was Qi Ji and Mu Tong riding together, returning triumphantly. Hongye hurriedly smiled and greeted them: "Thank you for your hard work. You two are very capable. We can hear the shouting and killing in Yandang City from where we are standing here."

Qi Ji, who was dressed in soldier's uniform, helped Mu Tong to get off the horse. Bai Shu immediately stepped forward and took out medicine from the medicine box to bandage Mu Tong's wounds. Mu Tong rubbed the bruises on his body and smiled, "You are so vicious. I won't dare to mess with you in the future."

Hongye picked up a piece of ointment and gently patted it on his wound: "Great hero, there is no one in this world you dare not mess with. Okay, let Qiji take you back to rest, and leave the rest to me."

Mu Tong glared and said, "No, you have to let Qi Ji follow you. If Dai Qin gets angry, Qi Ji will be there to keep you safe."

Hongye patted his head and said with a smile: "No. You are my hope for the future, I have to protect you well and can't let anyone steal you away."

Mu Tong laughed.

When Daiqin heard that Empress Yueyin was asking for a meeting at the city gate, his face turned as hard as steel. If he had not been usually calm and composed, he would have started cursing.

But he still maintained his composure and led his personal soldiers out of the city gate to meet the murderer who had started this atrocity: "I wonder what advice the Empress has for you?"

Hongye smiled slightly and said, "I think General Daiqin must be heartbroken to learn that General He Xige met with an unexpected accident. Hongye couldn't bear to see the general suffer alone, so she came to help the general solve his problems."

Dai Qin finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Damn it, if it weren't for you..."

Hongye interrupted him and said, "If General He Xige had not killed our envoy for peace and committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, General Daiqin would not have taken action to rectify the social order. General, rest assured, if the emperor of your country asks, I will guarantee you. The general's action is indeed for the greater good, and there is nothing wrong with it. Now that the two countries are at war, both sides are hurt. I am willing to do my best for the people of the world, so I came here in person, hoping to meet with the emperor of the Yuanzheng Empire to discuss ways to make peace. If the general is willing to put the overall situation first and help promote the friendship between Yueyin and Yuanzheng, it will be another great achievement. In this way, the general's family will be famous for generations to come." Daiqin's face changed again: "...Thank you for the Empress's hospitality. The Empress is magnanimous and forgiving, and she is a role model for future generations. We are just the defenders of a city, how can we sacrifice public interests for personal interests? He Xige brought this upon himself, and no one else can be blamed. Please come into the city and have a seat. I will entertain you on behalf of the Yuanzheng Empire. After the discussion is complete, I will escort the Empress to Yandu City to reach a peace agreement."

Hongye smiled: "That's exactly what should be done."

The last time I came to Yandang City, I was still a little dancer. Now, when I came to the city for the second time, I had transformed into a female emperor who occupied half of the country. Even storytellers would not dare to write such a legend. Gossip was like the wind, blowing through every corner of Yandang City. Countless people crowded in front of the former Yizuifang to see the female emperor, just as they wanted to see the red-waisted dancer back then. If it weren't for Daiqin's heavy guards, I'm afraid Yizuifang would have been crushed by the wall of people.

Because of her different identity this time, Hongye could not impress everyone with her talent like last time. She could only open the window, smile and wave, looking as kind and amiable as a female Buddha.

Waving hands is a strenuous job, and she continued to wave until the sun was setting. She was exhausted and finally left.

Fortunately, Bai Shu was there to help her massage with his unique technique, otherwise her arms would have been useless due to all these social etiquettes.

She didn't have much time to spare. That night, Daiqin hosted a banquet at Yizuifang to entertain Hongye and his group. Even Hongye, who could drink quite a bit, couldn't resist the coming and going of favors, and drank until her face was red. Thanks to Mu Tong who helped to block the wine, she was able to rest for a while.

When the banquet was finally over, Mu Tong helped Hong Ye back to the guest room and ordered Qi Ji to guard outside the door. Then he pretended to laugh and said, "It's not easy to be an emperor."

Hongye nodded: "It's really hard to be such a good person. Just these favors alone are enough to kill people. Before, you and Yunxi shared the burden, and I didn't feel anything. Now that I have to fight alone, I am really exhausted. Ah, I really want to ask Yunxi to come and help."

Mu Tong laughed loudly: "Oh, do you think your Concubine Xiao is very good at this? Her alcohol tolerance is not even a fraction of mine. In the end, she still has to rely on me."

Hongye said with a snort: "You are the only one who knows how to drink? Don't be so proud, if you have the guts, drink with Yang Yizhao once. I don't believe you can beat him."

Mu Tong glared: "Just that pretty boy? I don't believe it."

Hongye raised his head, and became more and more proud under the influence of alcohol: "Humph, no one in the world can drink more than him. Even the Wine Fairy can't beat him... No, he is the Wine Fairy. He is not only the Wine Fairy, he is also the Dance Fairy, the Beauty Fairy, the Music Fairy, the Chess Fairy, the Painting Fairy, the Money Fairy, the Fighting Fairy..."

Mu Tong curled her lips and said, "What nonsense! Why don't you say he is an omnipotent immortal?"

Hongye also pouted and said, "He is the omnipotent immortal. No one can be better than him."

Mu Tong wanted to provoke her and asked, "Oh? Better than Concubine Xiao?"
