Chapter 1300 1300: You have a serious illness (Part 2) [Please vote for me]
Mei Meng looked towards the direction of the final battle.
【good. 】
Her answer was so soft that it could be blown away by a breeze.
The two of them rested for a while. Mei Meng got on her horse, riding Qi Cang's war horse, while Qi Cang managed to make do with his own two legs: [I am old and disabled, but I still have to lead the young man's horse. You Don't you feel a little guilty? 】
Mei Meng said: [Aren’t you faster on foot? 】
A brave warrior can't just transform into a war horse.
Qi Cang took the initiative to give up his war horse. Why should Mei Meng be polite to him? She actually wanted to buy an old horse for traveling with the caravan, didn't Qi Cang look down on it? He also said that if you ride this thing, you will never be able to reach it in the next life.
He is the one who finds fault, and he is the one who complains.
The fact that he has survived to such a young age is all due to his strength.
Otherwise, he would have been beaten to death by people who couldn't stand him.
Qi Cang said: [Humph. 】
Taking advantage of Mei Meng's distraction, he looked back at the direction of the teahouse with his peripheral vision without leaving a trace, and with another snort, the two of them disappeared at the end of the path: "We are so familiar, why don't you call me daddy?" 】
[Did you wake up from the dream? 】
Why does she want to be a dwarf?
Moreover, she looks like she lacks fatherly love?
Qi Cang clicked his tongue in disgust: "I don't know how to praise." 】
His level of cultivation is here. If word gets out that he plans to adopt children, how many people will line up to kowtow to him?
The tea shop is not far away.
[Either follow her or follow me. ] Shen Tang slapped Lu Jue on the shoulder to prevent him from turning into a wife-watching stone, [If you go with her now, it will be too late to catch up. 】
Lu Jue looked away: [No. 】
Shen Tang didn't lie to Mei Meng. Lu Jue was really injured by the military stick, which hurt his heart and was unable to use force for ten days and a half. However, brave warriors can get up as long as they have one breath left due to their rough skin and thick flesh. He secretly hid in the dark to see Mei Meng off for the last time, and Shen Tang couldn't help but wonder if he was beating a mandarin duck.
[I won’t blame you for choosing her. 】
Shen Tang always considered himself the social boss of the company.
As a boss, you have no right to ask your employees to choose a company and give up their marriage. This is unrealistic. When you start a company, it’s normal for employees to come and go, join and resign. If Lu Jue chooses Mei Meng, she will respect her blessings, but will not allow Lu Jue to continue to hold important positions. You can't have your cake and eat it too, Lu Jue must choose.
Shen Tang's tolerance also has limits.
Lu Jue said bitterly: [I will be abandoned only if I catch up. 】
Shen Tang: […]
Lu Jue sighed: [She has never been the kind of person who would regret teaching her husband and look for a title. If a person doesn't even have his own way, he will only rely blindly on another person, as if he was born for the other person and lives for the other person. How sad. 】
Madame's love was as proud as she was.
She can accept strong love, but she cannot accept that the owner who gives this love has no self: [Compared with a man who is addicted to the love of men and women and is willing to be a bird in a cage, she will appreciate it more than a man who is addicted to the love of men and women but is willing to be a bird in a cage. A falcon wearing the coat of a caged sparrow. 】
You can be a bird in a cage, but you must have the ability to fly. Only by truly becoming a hero can he be qualified to bow down.
The strong man has a taste for bending over and bowing his head, while the weak man just lies there.
Shen Tang said: [That’s fine. 】
I don’t know for a moment whether I should say it’s a love brain or a career brain.
If he was alive to take off his armor and return to the field, he would... Lu Jue took one last look in the direction where no one could be seen, got on his horse, galloped his horse to keep up with his master, and left without looking back.
Mei Meng was defeated and died, but the leader of Qi State and the remaining leaders of the allied forces were still there. Shen Tang didn't add any fuel to the fire and directly announced the truth about how these people escaped - they didn't break out of the siege, but disguised themselves as deserters and blended in before escaping.
In other words -
All the soldiers and horses left behind became abandoned.
This news was a fatal blow to the reputation of these people.
After the leader of the Qi Kingdom fled, he did not dare to say anything. He was surrounded by soldiers and suspicious people all day long. After more than ten days of such fear, he finally reached a relatively safe place. This is an important border town of a small country affiliated to Qi State. It belongs to the subordinate country in name, but the generals guarding the gate are from Qi State.
After setting foot here, her tense nerves finally relaxed.
The most important thing right now is to gather the remaining troops and make plans.
The situation in Kang State has been established, and Qi State's continued resistance will be a dead end. Her plan was to send an envoy to negotiate, and it would be best if she could negotiate terms that were satisfactory to both parties. If not, she could retreat appropriately. This does not mean that she will give in without any bottom line. If Kang Guo bullies Taishi, she will resume the war and fight to the death.
If it is a peace negotiation, who will be sent?
If it's a fight to the death, who else can he use?
These questions kept swirling in her mind.
Until she received the tragic news that Mei Meng had died in battle.
"Jinghe, Jinghe has already—"
You Bao looked sad: "Mei Xiang has done his duty for the country."
After hearing this, the leader of Qi State felt a bitter taste in his tongue.
She had been mentally prepared for this, but she was still heartbroken when she actually heard the news. For Mei Meng, her feelings are very complicated. Love and hate intertwined, relying on each other and wanting to get rid of each other at the same time, entangled. Death is like a lamp going out, and all the past events disappear.
"Jinghe...well, did you mention anything about her death?"
As the Prime Minister of Qi State, Mei Meng's body is also valuable.
Whether it is beheading in public or hanging in front of the formation, it can greatly damage the morale of the southwestern countries, especially the Qi country. As an old friend, the leader of the Qi State did not want Mei Meng's body to be humiliated; as the leader, she also did not want to make things worse because of Mei Meng...
"Mei Xiang was buried at the foot of the mountain, and his body could not be found."
Not a whole body remained.
Naturally, it was impossible to be dug out and humiliated by Kang Guo.
This realization made the king breathe a sigh of relief. He was glad that Mei Meng had preserved his dignity after his death and did not have to be humiliated. He was also glad that he did not have to face a dilemma - Mei Meng's body was really in the hands of Kang Guo, regardless of whether Kang Guo was humiliated or not. , Qi State must respond. Whether it is sending troops or paying money, Mei Meng's body must be brought back to avoid chilling people's hearts.
Mei Meng sleeps at the foot of the mountain, and the difficult problem is solved.
The leader of Qi State had a thought in his heart and showed sadness on his face.
You Bao comforted her: "Please give me your condolences."
It's okay not to say it, but when it comes to the leader of Qi State, he bursts into tears.
I even cried until I fainted.
It's okay if she doesn't cry.
Kang Guo was exaggerating that she was a deserter because of her greed for life and fear of death, leaving Mei Meng to escape. How about she used Mei Meng's funeral to make some fuss and guide public opinion in the direction of Mei Meng's voluntary sacrifice, arousing the sentiments of the soldiers sharing the same hatred with the enemy. Her situation It's embarrassing.
Not only must he be sad, but he must also arrange a funeral for Mei Meng.
If the body cannot be found, clothes will be used to replace it. She is also overly sad externally and unable to restrain herself.
When Cui Xiong came over on behalf of the Cui family, he saw such a complicated situation. Internal and external troubles coupled with heavy filial piety made his face thinner, and his angular contours did not reveal the childishness of a boy. His posture when meeting the monarch also shows his mature demeanor.
"Why are you? Where is Cui Qing?"
The person the leader of Qi State most wanted to see was Cui Zhi. Cui Zhi was Cui's talker and the head of the southwest branch of the Society of Gods. Cui Xiong is the future heir and is of little use at the moment.
Cui Xiong was neither humble nor arrogant. He leaned down and worshiped: "My grandmother has recently lost her life. My father is grieving uncontrollably and his heart has been hurt. He has been ill for half a month. He paid a lot of money to hire Xinglin doctors to stay at the house, but he can't come to save her."
The leader of Qi State did not believe it at first.
But looking at Cui Xiong's condition, there's no doubt about it.
I could only suppress my anxiety, try to express concern in a gentle elder tone, and finally found an excuse to leave space for Cui Xiong and You Bao. Regardless of whether Cui Zhi is really critically ill or is pretending to be ill, since Cui Xiong was sent here, Cui Xiong is now a hostage.
Still a significant hostage.
If he makes good use of it, Cui Zhi will also have to use it as a rat weapon.
Cui Xiong also knew the king's plan, but he was more concerned about You Bao's situation. The last time the two met, You Bao still had some flesh on his face, but now he is almost as thin as a piece of paper, and there are also traces of frequent frowns between his eyebrows. He looked at it and felt really distressed.
"I asked the cook to cook what you like."
All the concern was choked in the throat, only this sentence remained.
The first faint smile in recent days appeared on You Bao's face: "We haven't seen each other for so long, and the first thing you said was to let me eat. Are you bothering me because you think I'm too talkative, so you blocked my mouth with your chef's pastries?"
Cui Xiong suppressed his blush and said, "You know that's not what I meant."
You Bao looked at the hem of his underwear and was no longer embarrassed.
She had gotten to know Cui Xiong's family relationship in the past few years since she was engaged, and knew that he was close to the elders of his mother's clan. It would be hard to live through the sudden loss of a blood relative. Food can make people feel happy, and she finished all the pastries Cui Xiong brought.
Cui Xiong frowned: "Bring it back tomorrow."
"In the land of right and wrong, what are you doing here?" You Bao wiped his fingers with the handkerchief he handed him, expressing his disbelief at Cui Xiong's behavior of throwing himself into a trap. Cui Xiong is ignorant, so doesn’t Cui Zhishan understand?
"Someone has to come, otherwise it will be difficult to explain."
"Come here, but you risk losing your life."
There was no surprise or fear in Cui Xiong's eyes, but he said very calmly: "If I don't come, who will? My father wants to hand over this big business to me. If something happens to me, I will push other people out, and I will Isn’t it just a villain to hide behind your back?”
He must shoulder the responsibility that is his.
Furthermore—
"You're here too, I can't help but come."
You Bao was touched by his words.
For the first time, she seriously looked at the husband in front of her, who was much younger than her. A willow leaf fell from the lake in her heart, and ripples appeared: "The marriage between you and me was decided by the Lord, and all the pros and cons were weighed. Not really taking care of your wishes.”
This marriage can be ignored.
Not to mention the unmarried, married people will go their separate ways when disaster strikes.
Cui Xiong's seriousness is unnecessary.
Youbao's response obviously exceeded Cui Xiong's expectations.
His pupils shook slightly. If he looked carefully, he was still shocked and hurt. He bit his lip: "How many marriages in this world are not made with a weighing of pros and cons? How do you know my wishes? How do you know it is not voluntary?"
Youbao: "..."
Her eyelids twitched fiercely.
The problem is, she is not Youbao, but Miao Ne.
Cui Xiong's heart is for "You Bao" and not for "Miao Ne", and she doesn't intend to live in confusion with other people's faces and names for the rest of her life. Mistakes should be corrected and things should get back on track.
Right, get back on track.
Not only to get back on track, but also to be glorious.
She was lurking next to the leader of Qi State not only to make him dizzy, but also not to discuss marriage with a man who was younger than her. When Mei Meng dies, Cui Zhi falls ill, and the leader of Qi State loses his arms; the southwest countries lose foreign wars, and the internal Eternal Life Sect rebels...a good opportunity to add fuel to the fire!
How could you miss such a good opportunity?
Is there any better "oil" than the death of the leader of Qi State?
"Time waits for me, Ximin—"
Miao Ne looked up at the moon and made up his mind!
Regicide is not an easy task.
No matter how the tiger falls in Pingyang, the leader of Qi State still has guards around him, and his residence is heavily guarded. It would be impossible for ordinary people to get rid of them, but Miao Ne has long been regarded as a confidant by the king over the years. The king believes that Mei Meng will not doubt her even if he kills the king.
Poison?
It is not easy to poison a king to death.
The leader of the country who holds the national seal is essentially no different from a literary scholar or a brave warrior. Her body has been strengthened and tempered by the energy of heaven and earth, and the poison that seals her throat with blood cannot kill her immediately. If he waits until the doctor Xinglin arrives, he will be blind.
Miao Ne has better props.
For example, the strings wrapped around her wrist.
She was as obedient as ever, serving the king through his meals and accompanying her in discussions with his ministers, until the middle of the moon. The king's face was visibly tired, and even his temples were covered with white hair.
Miao Ne felt some sympathy for the other party.
There are ways to fight and surrender. When a subject surrenders, he can change his court at any time. He can be a subject to the Qi State or a minister to the Kang State. He has flexible employment space; the situation is different for the head of the country, who is often in danger of his life.
After being the king for several years, how can he be willing to be a minister?
She was also filled with sorrow at this moment.
You want to keep your glory and wealth, but you also want to save your family and life, but you can't say your thoughts casually, and you have to pretend to be iron-clad, euphemistically saying that you can't live up to the sacrifice of the soldiers.
Can't choose?
It's okay, Miao Ne is willing to do it for you.
"You Bao, do you think Gu did something wrong?" The leader of Qi State had a headache. Her favorite minister walked forward and used skilled techniques to relieve her pain as usual. She closed her eyes and sighed, "If Jinghe was still there, I wonder how noisy it would be..."
Miao Ne said: "You might as well ask her?"
The king didn't understand it for a while.
The next moment, there was a suffocating pain in the neck.
Driven by her desire to survive, she grabbed at it and caught several taut thin threads with her fingertips. The thin thread suddenly locked in Miao Ne's hand and embedded deeply into her flesh. She tried to open her mouth to call for help, but something was blocked in her throat, and the warm breath hit her ears: "Does Your Majesty know that the two most powerful speech spirits among academy students are one of the two most powerful speech spirits?" Essential skills.”
The other party's voice changed subtly.
Transformed into a female voice that was completely unfamiliar to her.
She said with a smile in her ear: "I have been a top student for several years! Even Luan Gongyi has accidentally fallen into this trap."
Of course, it may also be related to Luan Xin's slow reaction.
|ω`)
Tang Mei can kill or not kill the leader of Qi State, so keeping her as a mascot will not affect anything (it is not difficult to recruit old ministers of Qi State, just Cui Zhi can come over), but Miao Ne refuses to let go of the leader of Qi State, this is about her Benefits (I have been pretending to be a grandson for many years, and I want to receive the principal with interest, which is somewhat related to personal grudges.)
