A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king
Chapter 841: Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey
Chapter 841: Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey
The girl from the Fang Dangbu department was not willing to give in and said aggressively:
"Is it like this? The enemy wants our leader dead, so you kill the tribal leader and give him to the enemy, cede land and pay compensation to ask for a truce? Aren't you just letting people bully us even more?"
The King of Huaxu still stood tall in front of the young Khan. Upon hearing these words, his already sinister brows suddenly raised.
She angrily waved away her wrist-guarded hand and subconsciously blocked the male Khan behind her. Her every move was intimidating without even showing any anger!
"Who said that the leader of the Yeli tribe was killed for the enemy? The cause of her death was that she flirted with the Khan and was disrespectful to him! If you, the eight Tangut tribes, don't even respect the Khan, and you come to the Central Plains and act on your own, wouldn't that be chaos?"
"Oh, so you are using Sister Yeli as an example to scare the monkeys and pave the way for this male Khan to establish his authority?"
The girl in the room crossed her arms, her eyes full of sneer.
The armored little king on the opposite side accepted it calmly and responded in a deep voice:
"That's right! I'm just trying to establish his authority."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Xiangyang governor said:
"Do you still have any conscience? A few days ago, you were desperate like rats crossing the street, and it was our young master who took you in regardless of past grudges. But you guys are still picking on her because you can't control the little thing in your crotch?"
When the host, the prefect of Xiangyang, said this, the shortcomings of these people were exposed. The seven tribes of Dangxiang shut up at that time!
After all, he was right!
Now they are living under someone else's roof. The food, clothing, shelter and transportation of tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers are all provided by others. These leaders also eat, drink, defecate and urinate in Xinye. How can this be, eating from someone else and then scolding them?
With the blatant favoritism of the small ruler of Huaxu State towards the male Khan and the incisive warning from the host governor of Xiangyang, the matter came to an end.
Yuan Wuyou also specifically ordered that the body of the leader of the Yeli tribe be taken out, put in a good coffin, and then sent to the leader of the Yeli tribe to comfort Bai Lan, the victim, as he felt that she was the best at comforting people.
After the arrangement was completed, everyone understood that the King of Huaxu was killing a chicken to scare the monkeys tonight in order to establish the authority of the male Khan in controlling the Tanguts. However, the seven Tangut tribes were more convinced of the female King.
After all, she is the real Khan and ruler of Huaxu, and now she is the host who provides them with food and lodging.
The Dangxiang were under control, but Yuan Wuyou knew that they were not convinced. They might even have been willing to endure humiliation and live under someone else's roof because she was the ruler of Huaxu and was in charge of Xiangyang.
However, Yu Fei, the prefect of Xiangyang, had always looked down upon the Dangxiang Khan Tuoba Ningcong.
Because he knew how Dangxiang Khan had recently used his young master to assassinate high-ranking officials of the Zhou State.
Moreover, this guy has a criminal record. Three years ago, not only did he lead troops to rebel against the State of Zhou and Queen Huaxu, but now he has also harmed his own young master, making him unpopular in front of the State of Zhou.
However, his young master was magnanimous. He not only forgave him and kept him by his side, but also supported him in front of a group of Dangxiang bandits, making an example of him. The governor of Xiangyang was not very happy about this.
Therefore, in front of several Dangxiang tribal leaders, the governor of Xiangyang bluntly told Yuan Wuyou not to develop real feelings for the Dangxiang Khan, even if it was just for fun, he was an ungrateful person from the northwest, a male Daji who was hiding deeply, and would sooner or later bring disaster to the country and the people.
After hearing the straightforward warning from the Xiangyang governor, Yuan Wuyou was quite surprised. It was the first time for him to dislike someone so much.
"Ah? Why are you suddenly concerned about my personal affairs? Even when you first learned about my relationship with Gao Yanzong, the male fox of Northern Qi, you didn't react so strongly."
The Xiangyang governor said sadly, "King Ande of Qi is old, but at least he has the age and experience. He knows what he is doing and will not kill you. But this kid is different."
"He won't kill me."
"But he is capable of doing all kinds of wicked things! He has no idea when he does it. Look at what he did today, he has dragged you into it. What if the Zhou Kingdom really regards you as a rebel? The one in power in Chang'an is not the emperor, but the prime minister." The governor of Xiangyang cited the example in front of him, and what he said was reasonable. Not to mention that the young Khan standing next to her could not refute it, even Yuan Wuyou was speechless. She could only smile and wave her hands.
"...Okay, I won't do this again."
Seeing that the queen still favored her own Khan, Mi Qinlin immediately became emboldened and began to argue unwillingly:
"Hey, aren't you being too harsh, old man? Our innocent little Khan grew up with her. They know each other very well, better than we do. I can't even persuade them about their affairs, so why are you interfering?"
The Xiangyang governor rolled his eyes at him and said, "You kids are just ignorant. Do you understand that private affairs are the most detrimental to your work?"
Seeing Mi Qinlin opening his mouth to refute, he immediately followed up:
"Let's just say that today he used our young master to escape from prison, attempted to assassinate the county lord, and was hunted down by the army. If this happened to your young master, wouldn't you be worried? Wouldn't you try to persuade him?"
Mi Qinlin spread his hands:
"I tried to persuade him, but it didn't work. If he had listened to me, we would have invaded Xinye City right outside of it."
Upon hearing this, Yu Taishou was immediately furious, "You are a bunch of traitors!"
Yuan Wuyou had been listening to the quarrels for the whole afternoon. Seeing that it had come to an end and only he was left making harmless noises, he did not dare to really offend her, so he simply ordered:
"Don't just stand here, go make a fire and cook. If there's anything, I'll go negotiate with Bai Lan tomorrow."
After saying that, Yuan Wuyou pulled the young man in black beside him and wanted to sneak him out.
The prefect of Xiangyang noticed it and quickly stretched out his arm to stop her, "Young master, wait a minute!" As he said that, he took out a bundle of thick red ropes from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Yuan Wuyou.
"There is a poppy bush in the backyard. Go and tie the poisonous sign with a red string so that those Tangut fools will be careful and don't eat it by mistake."
Yuan Wuyou nodded, took the red rope, pushed Wan Yuwuyu's shoulder, and left side by side.
The two of them went in through the back door, stepped out of the threshold, stood on the steps and looked into the flower bed below. They really did find that there were poppies planted in the fence, and there was a stone tablet next to it with three words engraved on it: "The whole plant is poisonous"!
She tied the red rope around the stone tablet as instructed, but the rope was quite long, so she had to reach behind her back to draw her sword and try to cut it off. The next moment, a short knife handle was handed to her.
"Give."
He spoke in a clear and cold voice. The hand holding the blade had distinct joints and the five fingers were exceptionally white and slender.
Wan Yuwu Yu guessed what she was thinking tacitly, and immediately took out the dagger from his body and gave it to her, and considerately pointed the handle towards her and the tip of the knife towards himself.
Yuan Wuyou didn't bother to be polite with her. He took it and gave it back to him after cutting the rope.
After finishing the work, the two stood side by side, looking at each other in silence.
She looked at the young Khan in front of her. The bright crescent moon emitted a piercing white light, which flowed along the wolf-tail braid on his head and hit his handsome face that was as handsome as a sculpture of ice or jade.
He also covered the silver armor he was wearing with a cloak that made him almost disappear.
