The Elegance of the Emperor: The Little Wife of the Wolf King

Chapter 138 Forcing the Palace
Murong Lianrui and Xiao Jinyu's army headed west all the way, as if they had entered an uninhabited land, they did not encounter substantial resistance at all, the army advanced rapidly, and soon reached Qicheng.One hundred thousand troops surrounded Qicheng so tightly that not even a single bird could fly out.

Xiao Jinqi stood on the high ground, looking at Qicheng from a distance, his eyes were a little misty.

There are white clouds under the blue sky, and a city stands under the white clouds. Outside the high city wall, a moat passes around the city, like a white belt enclosing the city in the center. It is dinner time, and the city is full of smoke. A peaceful atmosphere.

"Aqi, what are you looking at?" Agudamu stood behind Xiao Jinqi, stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance. There was nothing but city walls and houses?He looked at Xiao Jinqi suspiciously.

"Look at my hometown!" Xiao Jinqi spit out three words, his eyes became distant and deep.

"Hometown! Hometown!" Agudam murmured, and a layer of cloud was cast over his iron-red face.

"Missing your wife?" Xiao Jinqi turned to look at Agudam who hadn't said anything for a long time.

"Yeah! I haven't been home for a year. I don't know if my son will recognize me!" Agudam smiled naively. When he mentioned his son, his face was filled with a touch of happiness, "Go It was only so little when I was young, and I should have grown up now!" Agudam carefully compared the size of the child, for fear of making a mistake.

"I've been out for a long time too. I don't know what happened to Xiaotao and my son?" Xiao Jinqi heard Agudam talking about his son, and remembered his home in Quanrong. "Hurry up and finish the fight, and go back early!" Qi flicked his horsewhip, patted Agudamu on the shoulder, then turned his head and walked down the mountain.

"Xiao Jinqi, you must take me with you when you go back! I don't want to stay here any longer!" Agudam's voice came from behind, and Xiao Jinqi smiled.

Hometown is just a thought, a childhood memory, and a kind of sustenance of the soul when you are lonely. When you really walk into the hometown and get close to the hometown, you realize that the hometown is no longer what you remember, and the hometown is far away!

Where is our hometown?
A place with a wife is a home, and a place with a home is a hometown!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinqi finally let go of the knot in his heart. He walked quickly to the camp. He wanted to resolve the war as soon as possible, because he was homesick and wanted to return to the warm home of Quan Rong.

Xiao Jinqi walked into the tent of the Chinese army, Xiao Jinyu and Murong Lianrui were planning to attack the city in front of the map.

"Let's attack from here first. Your army will attack the east gate first to attract the enemy to rush to help. The other three gates will also attack, but don't attack too hard. Once the enemy transfers all the reserve troops to the east gate, we will Lead the army and start storming Ximen again, make sure to hit it with one blow and take down Ximen in one go!" Xiao Jinyu was talking about the strategy of attacking the city, and Murong Lianrui nodded repeatedly.

"Brother!" Xiao Jinqi came in and interrupted Xiao Jinyu, "We won't attack the city!"

"What? If we don't attack the city, what are we doing all the way here?" Murong Lianrui was confused by Xiao Jinqi's words.

"Murong City Lord, Xiqi and Quanrong are separated by Beimo, and we can't reach it. Even if we capture Qi City now, can Quanrong bring Xiqi into its territory?" Xiao Jinqi's question made Murong Lian Rui was a little confused.

After Murong Lianrui occupied Donghuang, he did not proclaim himself emperor, but called himself the Lord of Donghuang, and was attached to Quanrong in name, but in fact it was just empty talk, Donghuang had complete autonomy.

"Then what do you think?" Xiao Jinyu also had no idea, he was not afraid of war, but was afraid of using his brain to think about things.

"Negotiate peace!" Xiao Jinqi finally spit out two words.

"What? We have an absolute advantage now, but we are going to negotiate a peace? The total number of defenders in Qicheng is only 5. If we attack the city, I am absolutely sure that we can take it!" Xiao Jinyu yelled, pointing The little black dot on the map said confidently.

Murong Lianrui didn't say anything, but looked at Xiao Jinqi, waiting for him to continue talking.

"After the capture? Will you be the emperor? Or he?" Xiao Jinqi pointed to Xiao Jinyu and then pointed to Murong Lianrui.

"Hey, I'm not interested! My Donghuang's affairs are still in a mess! I'm just showing my brotherhood by following you. You decide whether to fight or not!" Murong Lianrui hurriedly shook his head, he was really right Rights have no interest.Donghuang is just a small country, and he is so busy with political affairs, and if Xiqi is added, he will not even have time to sleep!
When Xiao Jinyu was told by Xiao Jinqi, he also stood there silent for a long time.

"Brother, don't you want to be the emperor?" Xiao Jinqi poked the silent Xiao Jinyu with his fingers, and asked again tentatively.

"Bullshit, where do I have that ability? I didn't mention the war, but please forgive me after reading the memorial!" Xiao Jinyu finally woke up, and hurriedly said to Xiao Jinqi.

"Since we don't necessarily want to capture Qicheng, then we will negotiate a peace. As long as Qi Yun agrees to our conditions, we will immediately strike and withdraw to Donghuang!" Xiao Jinqi said firmly.

"Okay!" Murong Lianrui nodded.

"Okay!" Xiao Jinyu also nodded.

"Okay!" Agudam on the side also nodded and said yes, it's good not to fight, and he can return to Quanrong as soon as possible if he doesn't fight.

Everyone agreed, and Xiao Jinqi and the other four began to discuss some details of the peace negotiation.

When the news of the army besieging the city reached Qicheng, the whole city of Qicheng had already been under martial law.

Some high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Qicheng were trapped in the city before they had time to leave the city. The news spread randomly, and the people in Qicheng were in panic, especially some merchants, who were afraid that if there was a war, they would lose their personal wealth in the end.

The hearts of the people in Qicheng were unstable, and the court became even more chaotic.In the first early court after the army besieged the city, the ministers quarreled into a group, the main battle faction, and the main peace faction quarreled in the hall, each insisting on their own words, Qi Yun's head hurts listening to it!

"Stop arguing!" Qi Yun finally showed his power and roared, and the hall was suddenly quiet, for fear that the emperor would drag them out again and spank them.

"Arguing, arguing, arguing! Will there be a result of the arguing? War, who can lead the army? And, who can be sent as an envoy? There is no result of arguing, but they are all yelling here! If you yell, the army outside the city will be able to retreat? "Qi Yun pointed at the minister below and scolded.

"Your Majesty, the enemy army is besieging the city. The troops we mobilized have not yet arrived. Even if we do, it will be a drop in the bucket. I will definitely not be able to resist!" Let the enemy camp break the siege of our city with the power of words."

"The prime minister is really loyal and courageous!" Qi Yun's face finally relaxed, and he let out a long sigh, "The country's affairs are difficult, all ministers and workers must unite as one, and go to the national crisis together! Don't tear each other down and destroy the Great Wall!"

"Follow the emperor's will, and go to the national calamity together!" The ministers in the hall shouted, unable to kneel.

"Let's retreat!" Qi Yun looked at the minister kneeling in the hall, said something helplessly, and then left first.

Qi Yun hasn't made up his mind yet, whether to negotiate a peace or not, his heart is shaking!

Qi Yun locked herself in the study for a whole day and night without taking half a step out of the study.When Qi Yun walked out of the study the next day when he went to court, his black hair turned white overnight!

"Your Majesty, you?" the father-in-law who was waiting close to him exclaimed.

"It doesn't matter, let's go to court!" Qi Yun's eyes were bloodshot, his face was haggard, the pain of losing his son and the besiege of the capital, these two sudden events almost completely overwhelmed him, he was just trying to hold on. Take a deep breath, otherwise the hundreds of years of Xiqi's foundation will be completely collapsed.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" As soon as Qi Yun sat on the dragon chair, the prime minister ran in from outside the hall. Perhaps he ran too fast, and the hat on his head was also crooked, and the belt on his clothes was also undone, hanging down on the ground. waist.

"What's the matter?" Qi Yun knew that nothing good would happen when he saw him like this!

"Good thing, good thing!" The prime minister shook the letterhead in his hand, with a smile on his face.

"Prime Minister, you have a big heart! You can still laugh when the army is besieging the city?" Qi Yun felt panicked when he saw the prime minister's smile.

"Your Majesty, the enemy army agrees to the peace talks! This is a condition. If the Emperor agrees, send envoys to the opposite barracks to discuss the specific details. Once the peace agreement agreement is signed, the enemy army will automatically retreat!" The prime minister handed the letter in front of the steps in the hands of the father-in-law.

Qi Yun took the letterhead from her father-in-law, opened the envelope, and the delicate handwriting immediately came into view: "It's the prince's handwriting!" His hands were trembling a little, and finally he got the news from the prince.

After reading the letter, Qi Yun sat there blankly without saying a word, and the ministers below did not dare to say anything, waiting for the emperor's news.

"Let's retreat!" The emperor finally spoke, waved his hand, and made everyone retreat. All the ministers wanted to ask the emperor, but no one dared to speak first, so they could only leave the hall obediently.Only the emperor was still sitting there motionless.

"Your Majesty?!" The father-in-law at the side finally couldn't help it, and called out softly, and Qi Yun woke up from his deep thoughts.

"Let's go!" Qi Yun stood up, waved at her father-in-law, and then walked to the front by herself. Seeing Qi Yun's hunched figure, her father-in-law couldn't help sighing, and silently followed.

On the second day, the news of the peace talks between the imperial court and the enemy army flew everywhere. The news was not leaked by the imperial court, but the news released by the enemy army outside. In the city, the streets and alleys in the city are full of peace agreements, and it is difficult for the common people to know.

"Xiao Jinqi, what are you doing? A hundred thousand troops are besieging the city, why are you still negotiating a peace? You really got kicked in the head by a donkey!" Yeluheng said angrily to Murongjing, holding the agreement that Yu'er picked up from outside.

"Your head was kicked by a donkey! Do you understand that if you don't fight, you will be defeated? You can achieve your goal by negotiating a peace, so why do you have to attack the city? Doesn't it kill people?" Murong Jing put down the gun in her hand. book, seriously told Yeluheng.

"Siege of the city will definitely kill people, but..." Yeluheng wanted to argue, but was preempted by Murongjing.

"But what? This is the real strategy. If you can solve it with words, you will never resort to force!" Murong Jing stood up and tapped Yeluheng on the head, and said with a smile, "Xiao Jinqi's strategy is getting more and more proficient. You have to learn more! Otherwise, you won’t know why you will lose your country in the future!”

"Hehehe, I'm not afraid! With you, the Dayan family, here, no matter how powerful Xiao Jinqi's strategy is, I'm not afraid!" Yeluheng pulled Murongjing into his arms, and his big hands were already groping up and down her body .

"Hey, when is it now, you still have the mind to do this!" Murong Jing was hugged in his arms, blushing, struggling to escape.

"No matter how urgent things are, there is no such urgency. If your belly is not bulging, I will not relax for a moment! Look at Yu'er, what if he doesn't want to be a profuse sweater in the future, what should we do? Do we keep doing it until we die?" I still want to be free for a few days! So, cheer up, have more sons, and I will have choices in the future!" After Yeluheng finished speaking, he walked to the bedside with Murongjing in his arms. Small gasps.

The two lay on the bed and didn't leave the house all day. Yu'er knocked several times, but no one responded.

Yeluheng only opened the door the next morning, and the street outside was like a frying pan, with people running around and shouting.

"What's the matter?" Yeluheng approached the door and asked the shopkeeper standing at the door.

"The peace talks are over, the enemy has retreated thirty miles, and the crown prince has returned!" the shopkeeper glanced at Yeluheng and said coldly.

"Is that the end?" Yeluheng asked the shopkeeper in disbelief.

"Then what else do you want?" The shopkeeper glared at Yeluheng.

Yeluheng felt the shopkeeper's hostility, so he didn't ask any further questions, and followed the crowd into the street, followed closely by his personal guards.

There are people coming and going on the street, bustling, so lively!

Yeluheng was caught in the crowd, walked forward along the crowd, and saw the prince sitting on the chariot in front of the emperor's guard of honor, Xiao Jinyu was standing beside him.

"Why is this Xiao Jinyu back, didn't he go to Donghuang?" Yeluheng asked the people next to him puzzled.

"Oh! Don't you know? General Xiao was also forced to do nothing! Now that the prince is back, the emperor abdicates. After the prince ascends the throne, he will personally help General Xiao Han and bury the Xiao family. How could General Xiao not come back? His Xiao family is full of loyalty, how can he bear the charge of treason?" The person next to him explained the situation to Yeluheng in detail.

Yeluheng still didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask again. He thought he'd better go back and ask the little woman who was still sleeping on the bed!Her words can always be right to the point, to the point, so that he can understand it all at once.
