The poisonous concubine allures the city, the ghost king loves the sky

Chapter 158
Feng Wuxie has practiced for two months, and now he has only reached the third floor.

But this is already quite harmful, before she could only cover the object with a thin layer of ice, now as long as her internal force is strong enough.

It is not a problem to freeze people for a few minutes.

Han Yefei stood by the side, steaming in his hands non-stop, his brows and eyes curled into a smile: "If you want me to tell you, stop practicing, go back to the grassland with me, and be my concubine."

There, you can see cattle and sheep in the wind and grass, as well as delicious mutton and kumiss.

Oops, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

Han Yefei's homesick drooling, coupled with his wretched face, made Feng Wuxie frown involuntarily.

Pushing out a palm, Han Yefei felt a thin layer of ice forming on his body.

Shocked, he hurriedly used his internal force to melt the ice on his body, which prevented him from being frozen into an iceman.

He couldn't help but smacking his tongue inwardly, Feng Wuxie's martial arts were really domineering, and he had practiced to such a level in just two short months.

Feng Wuxie turned around and went down the mountain, leaving only Han Yefei standing on the top of the mountain alone.

He looked into the distance, where was Xichu's military camp, where hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed.

If the weather is good, you can see the soldiers in the barracks and hear the sound of the horn.

Han Yefei only glanced lightly, then looked away.

Then he followed Feng Wuxie's footsteps and ran down the mountain.

Beside Han Yefei's station, there was a ball of paper crumpled into a ball. After some time, a hand appeared in the forest and quietly took the ball away.

Open the note, there are only a few words, don't act rashly.

The person was dressed as a peasant woman and carried a bundle of dry firewood on his back. After reading the words on the note, he stuffed the note into his mouth and swallowed it slowly.

Then he carried the firewood on his back and went down the mountain step by step.

After climbing several mountains, the woman stopped at the foot of a mountain, where there was a thatched hut with curling smoke coming out of the roof.

The woman knocked lightly on the door panel three times, then knocked hard three times, and soon there were footsteps.

The door creaked open from the inside, revealing a bearded man. After seeing the woman, he shouted in surprise: "Master, are you back?"

Hongxiu stepped into the yard, patted the frost on his body, nodded and said, "Quick, is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death."

Hei San hurriedly brought a cup of tea, and handed it to Hong Xiu: "Yes, I just shot a roe deer the day before yesterday, and now there is only half a leg left, I'll go get it right away."

Hongxiu took a sip of the cup, but felt that the tea was bitter and astringent, and almost vomited it out: "The family is out of money again?"

According to Hei San's drunken appearance, how could he be willing to drink tea?
"The head of the family is about to enter winter, and the brother's work is becoming more and more difficult. Once the mountain is covered by heavy snow, who will come out?"

Ever since they withdrew from Yunyang City, the days have been getting worse day by day, Hei San sighed.

The brothers under him are still wearing thin summer clothes and shivering every day, and they don't know when the day will be the boss.

"Do you have a letter?" Hei San asked.

Hongxiu shook his head, with a puzzled expression on his face: "The king only told us not to act rashly, but our original plan is almost here. If we don't do anything, the longer we delay, the greater the danger will be for the king."

"Then what should we do? It doesn't matter if we suffer or suffer, but we can't just watch the king in danger."

As soon as Hei San heard what Hongxiu said, he immediately stood up.

"No, I'm going to inform the brothers now, let's do it tonight."

Hong Xiu kicked him in the chest and cursed, "I won't stop you if you want to die, but if you ruin the king's affairs, I'll wring your head off and kick it like a ball."

The red sleeves are pungent, and the black three have experienced it before.

As soon as he stepped down, his mind became clearer, and he sat down on the stool listlessly, scratched his head, looked at Hongxiu and said, "Then what do you think should be done?"

"Wait."

Wait for the king's order and wait for the time to come.

They have been lurking in Western Chu for five years, and what their hometown looks like has long been blurred.

Their existence is to secretly protect the king, help him get rid of Xi Chu's control, and return to the place where he should stay.

There are tens of thousands of people there who are in need of him.

Therefore, before they got the king's order, they could only be wild people, hunters, and bandits in the mountains.

The cold winter is approaching, and all the departments have submitted papers one after another, trying their best to prepare winter supplies for their departments.

However, there have been disasters in recent years, and the harvests in various places are really bad. Everyone is asking the emperor for money, and all the ministries are crying for poverty.

Emperor Chu was so agitated by these six-part memorials that he waved his hand, and all the memorials on the desk were thrown to the ground.

"What a bunch of bastards. Last year, I just allocated money to the Ministry of Industry, saying that it was to repair the dam. As a result, it was washed away by the water this year. Could it be that the money was eaten by dogs? Now the Ministry of Industry does not come to ask for money. The Ministry of War Come to join in the fun again, saying that the armor of the soldiers is already in tatters, and they are in urgent need of winter coats."

Emperor Chu pointed to Fu Sheng who was kneeling on the ground: "Tell me, how can I close this hole?"

Because this year's floods were so fierce, Emperor Chu knew that it was nothing to do with personnel, but for the sake of the royal prestige, he still gave the minister of the Ministry of Industry to him.

Facing the wrath of Emperor Chu, Fu Sheng knelt on the ground in fear, not daring to say a word.

Eunuchs are not allowed to discuss government affairs, otherwise they will be killed without pardon.

No one could answer Emperor Chu's words, and the entire Shengde Hall was so quiet that even a needle could be heard.

After a while, Emperor Chu let out a long sigh, and said to Fu Sheng, "Get up."

Only then did Fu Sheng kowtow to thank him, and carefully picked up all the memorials scattered on the ground, and put them on Emperor Chu's desk.

Emperor Chu propped his forehead with one hand, and inadvertently glanced at a booklet, took it out, and read it again.

He slammed the table and said angrily, "Presumptuous."

Fu Sheng knelt down on the ground again, waiting for Emperor Chu to throw the memorial to the ground again.

But for a long time, he didn't hear anything, his knees were sore, but Fusheng didn't even dare to move, at this moment, he heard Emperor Chu laughing.

"Go, call King Jin and King Xuan to the palace."

Gong Moran and Jun Yeli were summoned into the palace overnight. Emperor Chu sat on the bright yellow dragon chair with an angry expression on his face.

After the two saluted, Emperor Chu ordered them to sit down and asked Fu Sheng to present the memorial to them.

After Gong Moran and Jun Yeli both looked at it, Emperor Chu said to them: "You two emperors, what's your opinion?"

Gong Moran and Jun Yeli looked at each other, and Gong Moran first said: "The governor of Jiangnan is so bold that he dares to collude with people from all corners of the country. He uses the martial arts conference to make money on the surface, but secretly has an unknown deed. Bobo, the imperial court has to guard against it."

Emperor Chu nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Jun Yeli: "Lao Liu, what do you think?"

"Ningcheng in the south of the Yangtze River is the gathering place for the remnants of the previous dynasty. As the governor of the south of the Yangtze River, Xiao Tianrui is in charge of a hundred thousand naval forces. To collect money, I heard that if anyone who passes through his hands wins the first place in the martial arts conference, the youngest will be a battalion commander, and he will be punished if he doesn't pay attention to the imperial court."

Jun Yeli paused for a moment, and then said: "What's more, the Ninghe River leads directly to the Yongjiang River. If Xiao Tianrui's defense is not good, it will attract hundreds of thousands of Nanzhao troops to use the waterway to go north. Once Ningcheng falls, it will be like a broken bamboo. It’s too late to go back to Beijing to rescue him.”

Jun Yeli didn't say any more when he finished talking, but Emperor Chu was in a cold sweat.

From Ningcheng to Yunyang, if the marching speed is fast, it only takes three days to arrive.

Even if the Northern Defense Army can take back Ningcheng to rescue him, it may be too late.

"Then what clever plan do you two have?" Emperor Chu looked at Gong Moran and Jun Yeli.

Xiao Tianrui has the military power in his hands, if one is not handled properly, it will cause him to resist, which is also the most troublesome thing for Emperor Chu.

But the general was outside, and the military orders were not accepted, and the Emperor Chu had nothing to do with him.

In the past, he could turn a blind eye and close one eye, but this Xiao Tianrui is becoming more and more lawless now, and the taxes collected by the local people are even more than what the imperial court collects.

Now the tumor has grown bigger and bigger, and it has to be pulled out.

Both Gong Moran and Jun Yeli understood Emperor Chu's mind, and they made a move in unison: "Assassination."

Xiao Tianrui's snobbery is too great, if it is clear that it is difficult to guarantee that his subordinates will not accept him, he has made great military exploits, if he dies in the hands of Emperor Chu.

I'm afraid that people will mistakenly think that Emperor Chu killed the ministers in vain, and the whole body will be affected by one hair, and the whole court situation will be in turmoil.

The attitude of these two people won the favor of Emperor Chu. If it was not forced, the court would not be tempted to kill the meritorious minister.

At that moment, Emperor Chu waved his hand and said, "This trip, you two should do it, there must be no mistakes."

After Jun Yeli and Gong Moran thanked them for their kindness, Emperor Chu saw that the two of them were still not moving, so he asked, "What else can I do?"

"My fourth brother and I are too abrupt, why don't we find a woman to go with us, so as to lower Xiao Tianrui's vigilance, it is best to have some medical skills."

This trip was too dangerous. In case of any accident, it would be much more convenient to have a doctor by his side. Jun Yeli told Emperor Chu of his thoughts.

Emperor Chu thought for a while, a woman needs to be a doctor.

Suddenly, his eyes brightened, and he had a choice: "I think Feng Wuxie will go with you. The three of you pretend to be brothers and sisters and sneak in while the martial arts conference is in order. That's very good."

Gong Muran was slightly worried: "The court suddenly lost two princes and a deputy head, I'm afraid it's not right."

"It doesn't matter, father just needs to find an excuse to let the two princes think about their mistakes behind closed doors, and the head of the hospital is sick and bedridden, so no one will doubt it." Jun Yeli glanced at Gong Moran lightly, and suggested.

"Okay, don't argue, just do what Lao Liu said." Emperor Chu settled the matter with a wave of his hand.
