Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 549: Gaochang Lost His Wife and His Army
After hearing Zhao Mu's far-fetched reason, the envoy was speechless.

Seeing the bewildered look on the envoy's face, Zhao Mu continued, "Okay! It seems that you don't understand what I mean. To put it simply, you and I have no grudges. But your marriage with the Liao Kingdom threatens the safety of my Qi Kingdom. So one of you and the Liao Kingdom must die. However, Qi is not as powerful as the Liao Kingdom, and I can't swallow the Liao Kingdom, so there is no other way. I can only let you Gaochang die!"

Hearing Zhao Mu's arrogant and completely unreasonable remarks, Musa couldn't help but laugh.

The envoy said at this time: "Your Highness Prince Qi is too unreasonable! Our marriage with the Liao Kingdom is our own business. Your country has no right to interfere. Your Highness Prince Qi launched an attack just for this matter, which is unbecoming of the Central Plains country of etiquette!"

Zhao Mu laughed when he heard this, "Haha. Is that proper? When you die, you can ask Confucius for this matter. I won't talk about propriety with the dead."

Then Zhao Mu's face changed, and he said, "If the envoy came to see me just to talk nonsense about morality, then please go back."

At this time, Musa also said: "Mr. Envoy, now it is you who are begging us. Don't expect Liao to help you. If you are here to seek peace, then show your sincerity. What can you give us?"

The envoy's attitude softened at this time. He said: "If His Majesty the Prince of Qi is willing to withdraw his troops, then our Majesty is willing to do so."

Zhao Mu interrupted, "Alright! I don't want to hear it. You are no longer qualified to negotiate. No matter what you can give me, as long as I rush into the city, everything will be mine. Why should I need you to give it to me? You entered into an alliance with the Liao Kingdom without my permission, and this is your sin."

Hearing Zhao Mu's attitude, the envoy did not stay long and left Zhao Mu's camp to report.

The envoy returned to Gaochang City and informed the Uighur civil and military officials in Gaochang City of Zhao Mu's attitude.

At present, the Uighur ruler and his ministers were frightened by Zhao Mu's attitude.

They were not afraid of Zhao Mu making demands. They were just afraid that Zhao Mu would not make any demands.

If Zhao Mu made a request, even if it was very demanding, they would find a way to satisfy it. But now Zhao Mu had no request, he just wanted to kill his way in. This made them completely panic.

The Uighur King looked at the ministers and asked, "What do you all think we should do?"

However, the officials of the Western Region Uighurs were helpless at the moment.

Because Zhao Mu's cavalry came too fast, before they had time to escape, the cavalry of the Qi army surrounded Gaochang City.

Moreover, they had sent messengers to borrow troops and seek help before, but these messengers, like the messengers, were intercepted and assassinated by the Mingjiao people.

Although the Ming Cult was no match for the massive Uighur army of Western Region, its masters were still capable of robbing and killing a few envoys.

Although there are still 30,000 soldiers available in the city, the Uighurs of Xizhou have no confidence that they can defend the city under the command of Zhao Mu, the god of war of the Song Dynasty.

At this time, the Uighur King complained: "Everyone advised me to marry the Liao princess and make peace with the Liao Kingdom. But I didn't expect that it would bring such a disaster."

At this time, the envoy said, "Your Majesty, don't panic. Since the King of Qi is raising an army to punish us, he is afraid that we will ally with the Liao Kingdom. Why don't we hand over the princess of the Liao Kingdom to the King of Qi? Anyway, the princess has only arrived recently and has not officially married Your Majesty yet. If we hand the princess over to the King of Qi, it will be an explanation to the Qi Kingdom."

The Uighur king asked, "But what if Liao comes to call for punishment again?" The envoy replied, "Then your majesty can put all the blame on Qi. If Liao goes to attack Qi, we can take the opportunity to unite with Liao to avenge today's humiliation. But if Liao does not move, then Liao will also understand our difficulties."

After thinking it over, the Uighur King said, "But now, as King Qi said, we are no longer qualified to negotiate. If he gets the princess and doesn't withdraw his troops, then won't we lose both the lady and the troops?"

The messenger continued, "But we have no other way to go except this one. Qi State has not sent any envoys to us, and has not launched any attacks. It seems that the King of Qi is waiting for the follow-up troops to arrive. If we wait for his infantry to arrive, then everything will be over. Your Majesty, we can give it a try now."

At this time, all the Uighur ministers also gave advice to the Uighur king. Although the Uighur king was reluctant to let go of the fresh peach that was about to be in his mouth, he had no other choice at the moment.

So the Uighur king sent an envoy again, this time bringing enough gold, silver and treasures from the palace as compensation, and then handed over the Liao princess's carriage and the accompanying Liao envoys.

This morning, Zhao Mu had just gotten up.

The attendant came again to report that the Uighur envoy had come again.

Although Zhao Mu wanted to send him away, he became interested when he heard that he had sent the princess of Liao.

Zhao Mu thought, "Haha, Yelu Yanxiu has been a smart woman all her life, but she was sold out by her husband this time. Well, for her sake, I will meet them this time."

Zhao Mu then ordered his attendants to bring the Uighur envoy to see him again.

Zhao Mu sat down in the military tent, and soon the Uighur envoy arrived outside Zhao Mu's central military tent with a flower carriage.

Zhao Mu looked at the float outside the tent, and a lewd smile appeared on his face. He was now looking forward to seeing Yelu Yanxiu's expression.

Zhao Mu was already prepared to laugh at her, and this time she fell into his mouth, Zhao Mu would definitely not let her go.

Although Zhao Mu hated Yelu Yanxiu, he did not hate her appearance or her soft and smooth body. The reason why Zhao Mu did not touch her before was because this woman always wanted to use her as a bargaining chip to make him let go of the Liao Kingdom.

But destroying Liao was Zhao Mu's goal, so how could he give up his plan because of a woman?

He wanted to touch Yelu Yanxiu, but the person he wanted to touch was not the Princess Zhao of Liao State, but a Khitan woman, Yelu Yanxiu, who became his slave.

Soon the Uighur envoy entered Zhao Mu's tent, but before he could speak, Zhao Mu waved his hand and said, "Alright! I am not in the mood to listen to your nonsense. Since you have brought the princess of Liao, please ask Her Royal Highness to come and talk to me in person!"

At this time, Zhao Mu also shouted to the carriage outside: "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for many days. Your Highness really came here. How does it feel to be my prisoner now? I reminded you before, but you refused to listen. How does it feel to be betrayed by your husband now? Please show up and meet me, Your Highness!"

As Zhao Mu finished speaking, the curtain of the flower carriage slowly opened.

But when Zhao Mu saw the person getting out of the car, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
