Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Chapter 46 Just for appreciation
  The night was already deep, and the large Ming court paper outside the tent was blown fiercely by the wind. The crackling sound of the fire inside the tent, compared with the sound of the cold wind blowing outside the tent, was like the whisper of a mother's cradle.

Hai Lanzhu had already fallen asleep lying on the table, her slender legs were kneeling on the ground, two round pieces were placed on the edge of the table, they were gathered together in a large scale, like clouds, her hair was half-covered and her face was half-covered. After just one glance, she Get your blood pumping.

Wang Qi reached out to pick up the tea bowl and poured a cup of herbal tea before he could control his mind and continue reading with his head down.

At this moment, Qin Erbao's voice came from outside the tent.

"Sir, there is a group of people visiting, carrying the flag of Horqin Prairie Royal Court, and they are already three miles away."

"The flag from the Horqin Royal Court must be treated well," Wang Qi said expressionlessly as he continued to flip through the book in his hand: "Send the order, everyone gathers, the cavalry is mounted, and the crossbows are cocked!"

"Yes!" Tai Erbao received the order and silently retreated.

Wang Qi turned around and saw that Hai Lanzhu had woken up, her hair as scattered as clouds, and her beautiful eyes looking at Wang Qi with a hint of confusion.

"The King of Horqin has sent someone to pick you up," Wang Qi closed the book with a snap.

Hearing this, Hai Lanzhu's beautiful eyes flashed, and she wanted to get up and go outside to take a look, but when she saw Wang Qi sitting there peacefully, she bent her legs again and continued to sit at the table without moving.

At this time, outside the big tent, all the Ming troops were already wearing fine armor and holding bows, waiting for Wang Qi's order.

In the distance, Horqin Mongolian cavalry holding torches swaggered towards the Ming army's camp.

Not long after, in front of the horse gate, a strong Mongolian young man wearing a bright red velvet hat came out on horseback. He was very domineering and arrogant: "Tell your general to come out and speak!"

"Here, take off your armor!" Qin Erbao's voice was rich and majestic. Behind him were dozens of Ming soldiers with fine armor and crossbows, already aiming at the incoming man.

In the darkness, there were nearly a hundred cavalry on standby with crossbows.

The cold moonlight reflected on the fine steel arrow clusters, and the light was particularly stunning.

Even though the cavalry on the Mongolian grasslands are brave, unfortunately, within ten steps, the Ming Dynasty's crossbows are the most lethal!

Seeing this battle, the Mongolian man's eyes couldn't help but twitch. He believed that if he dared to take another step forward, he would be shot into a hedgehog immediately!
  "Your Highness Su He, we are here just to pick up Hailanzhu Gege. A little impatience will mess up the big plan. There is no need to conflict with the Ming army..." Next to the young man was an old man with a long beard, facing the opposite side. The Ming army armed with fine steel bows and crossbows was also a little timid!
  Su He snorted coldly, turned over and dismounted.

The cavalry behind him also dismounted.

"You can only go in and see my lord by yourself!" Qin Erbao glanced up and down at the Mongolian Highness with a captivating look. He seemed to be estimating how many punches he could take to kill him.

Su He tightened the python belt around his waist and took a deep breath. He came here with the mission assigned by his father. He couldn't back down when he was about to attack!
  In the cold eyes of the Ming army, Su He stepped away.

With a crash, the vertical curtains of the tent were pulled up from both sides, and Suhemai stepped into the tent.

The fire in the tent was swaying and dim.

A young and excessive Ming army general sat behind the table, with Hai Lanzhu standing beside him like a maid, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"Mongolian Horqin Suhe has seen the Ming Dynasty general!" Suhe has seen the battles outside and feels that it is better to show some respect to the man in front of him.

"Why are you here?" Wang Qi sat on the long rug made of grizzly bear skin, leaning against the stove, his expression unclear.

Su He glanced at Wang Qi and quickly lowered his eyes: "Little Wang, come and welcome our Hailanzhu Gege." The Horqin Prince's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his body was trembling slightly. Just now, At a glance, Wang Qi was sitting there, exuding an aura that was very familiar to Su He.

Jianzhou Jurchen, Huang Taiji!

Su He had also seen such power in Huang Taiji. His father once commented on Huang Taiji: He swallowed mountains and rivers with anger, and he was the most powerful person at that time.

And he came here today because he wanted to bring Hai Lanzhu back, so that he could marry Huang Taiji and promote a major marriage. Even if the Ming court envoys arrived, the situation would have been decided and there would be no way to change it!

But now that the young Ming Dynasty general is here, I'm afraid things won't be so easy.

Su He didn't dare to look up at Wang Qi, so he could only take a deep breath to calm down his mood.

"Have you seen Huang Taiji?" Wang Qi, still sitting behind the light, hidden in the darkness, seemed to ask casually.

"Hou Jin." Su He subconsciously wanted to answer, then suddenly raised his head and blurted out: "No!"

Beads of sweat fell from Su He's forehead, and the prairie prince could almost hear his own heartbeat.

How did this man know his father's plan?
  Huang Taiji had just arrived at the Royal Court of Horqin Grassland yesterday. The faction that had joined the Ming Dynasty such as Battelle had become weak, and the forces that had fallen to Hou Jin had taken the initiative, so his father arranged for him to gallop through the starry night, hoping to kidnap Hai Lanzhu on the way. Those who go back will directly contribute to big things! !

As for why you should not choose Hailanzhu?
  One is that his status is valuable, and the other is that Huang Taiji once met Hailanzhu once and fell in love at first sight!

"General, this matter has nothing to do with the Jianzhou Jurchens, but with Hai Lanzhu's father, Horqin Beile Zhai Sang is seriously ill and wants to see his daughter," Su He's big beads of sweat dropped from his forehead. For some reason, facing Wang Qi , to avoid being nervous about King Horqin Khan.

"My father is seriously ill. He should have sent someone close to him to pick up Hai Lanzhu. Why did he send you here?" Wang Qi shook his head and directly rejected Su He's request. He replied: "Go back and tell Huang Taiji that he should come here." Wait for me at Horqin Palace, I am very interested in meeting him."

"General, Huang Taiji is indeed not in our department. I apologize for not being able to tell you this." Su He felt at this moment that Horqin had suffered an unreasonable disaster.

Caught between the two monsters of Hou Jin and Daming, if you don't pay attention, it will be a disaster.

"You can go," Wang Qi waved his hand, indicating that he could see the guests off.

Su He opened his mouth, but hesitated. After a long while, he seemed to have made up his mind before bowing and saying: "The tribe of the small Horqin country, please show your respect when the time comes!"

Hunched over and not hearing Wang Qi's answer for a long time, Su He pursed his lips tightly and slowly exited the tent.
  "Are you really going to see Huang Taiji?" Hai Lanzhu, who had been silent since Su He entered the tent, spoke for the first time.

From the beginning to the end, Hai Lanzhu thought that Wang Qi would not enter the royal court until Huang Taiji left.

Because the Jurchens of Jianzhou and the Ming Dynasty met at such a sensitive time, I am afraid it was not a simple encounter with swords.

Wang Qi stood up slowly, looked outside the tent and saw the Su He people who had already left on horseback, and slowly said: "I heard that Huang Taiji is a powerful figure in the world, and I just admire him a lot."

"Outside Zhenwu Fort, you defeated the Jianzhou army led by Huang Taiji," Hai Lanzhu asked.

"Ha," Wang Qi turned sideways, with half of his face completely shrouded in shadow, and said slowly, "So, just for appreciation."
