The sky grew bleak, and Qin Nuo led everyone down the city wall.
Although Hengdao City is deserted, the visit of the imperial driver is also to be greeted with a banquet.
The drinks and dishes served in the City Lord’s Mansion are naturally far less than the banquets in the palace, but in places like Hengdao City, they are already extremely luxurious. Especially at the banquet, Qin Nuo ordered people to present many drinks produced by the Neifu.
A bottle of luxurious crystal cups and wines were laid out, crimson, light green, golden, gorgeous in color, and mellow. Not only Li Yi, these soldiers looked straight, and even accompanied the Beishuo envoy to the north. The eyes of the people are shining.
The wines in the inner palace have long been well-known in the world, and they will be sold out as soon as they are listed. Compared with the convenience of the capital's dignitaries near the water, the distant northern border can almost only be greedy.
But it is even more difficult for Beishuo to taste the taste. The small amount of beverages that flowed into the Northland were all in the bag of the top dignitaries and could not be tasted in leisure.
Now Qin Nuo ordered people to put out the red rainbow golden flames of the water, the nectar of the breeze... are all famous wines worth ten thousand gold.
And the emperor said more boldly, that there are enough wine and water pipes, let you taste it, anyway, this time brought enough! The atmosphere of the banquet rose instantly.
Han Guangzhao drank two glasses, drew a toast in front of Qin Nuo, and said with a respectful smile: "His Royal Highness the ten-mile red makeup wedding team, if a half of the dowry box contains these fine wines, wait until the Beishuo Shengjing city, I am afraid that most All the noble military commanders in the capital have to kowtow to the princess and beg for grace."
Thirteenth’s Princess was married, and the emperor loved it so much. Before Yujia went on the road, he had sent several teams to transport dowry supplies and stocked them in this Hengdao City. On the road, the team stretches for dozens of miles, and the wealth they bring is countless.
"Han Qing is polite." Qin Nuo seemed to be amused by his words and laughed loudly.
Han Guangzhao smiled and said: "The ministers didn't have a lie, and they didn't lie to each other. Even the lord of the country, who drinks banquets every day, ordered this kind of wine. It's a pity that it's rarely seen in the palace recently."
Because the barbarians of the Tubi nationality looted Changlong Guan, the business between the two countries has been interrupted. There has been no business exchanges for more than a month. This kind of drink was originally stuck in the palace. In Beishuo, even in the palace, there is no too much. More inventory.
"Why worry, at this hour of tomorrow, won't the monarch of your country be able to feast on it?" Qin Nuo smiled and raised his glass and drank it.
Tomorrow morning, Qin Zhi’s frame will set off northward. According to the distance between the two cities, it will arrive at ten-thousand-miles city at sunset. If the emperor of Beishuo is impatient, he can get three or two bottles from the dowry as soon as possible.
"The emperor makes sense." Han Guangzhao also drank the wine, his eyes flashing, full of smiles.
Seeing his complacent smile, Qin Nuo added: "The dowry of the emperor sister, it must satisfy your country."
"It's the blessing of the emperor and the princess." Han Guangzhao complimented.
The atmosphere was lively, and Han Guangzhao leaned forward to toast at the official clan table accompanied by the officials on the banquet, and he stumbled a little along the way.
Everyone can see Master Han's joy. After all, he completed the task of giving off the marriage, which is a great achievement. It is no problem to go back and get promoted.
When the toast arrived at King Shu's table, Han Guangzhao's pouring hands became unstable. He spilled half a bottle of fine wine, making everyone around him feel distressed.
Only occasionally when he met Qin Xun's line of sight, there was a trace of clarity, which made Qin Xun understand that this person was not as gaffe as he might seem.
Qin Nuo sat on the table and looked down at the two figures passing by.
The banquet did not last too long, and the customs at the border should not be too relaxing and indulgent at any time.
Not to mention that tomorrow, when the princess will go north, there will be many tasks to be busy.
At the middle of the moon, the banquet was over, and the City Lord's Mansion fell into silence.
Under the dark night, even the hound guarding the door and the war horse in the stable fell asleep.
In the back hall of the City Lord's Mansion, it was cleaned up half a month ago and reorganized to welcome the visit of Yujia.
In the dead of night, the hall was dim. Soon after the banquet was over, the emperor took a few cronies to the courtyard where the princess stayed.
The two brothers and sisters seemed to be talking the last parting words.
The servants in the palace evaded them with winks, except for a few close friends.
If Han Guangzhao sees the situation in the room clearly, his jaw will fall out of shock, making it hard to believe his eyes.
Standing in the room were two handsome boys, almost exactly the same, all dressed in plain white embroidered silver wavy clothes.
Thirteenth’s Princess Qin Zhi, dressed in men’s clothing, grabbed his brother’s sleeves with a face full of dismay.
Even though she has a cheerful personality and act boldly, at this moment, she still feels full of anxiety, just because what her emperor brother wants to start next is a plan that will shock the whole world.
Such a high-yield plan naturally faces high risks.
"Brother emperor, you are now holding the world's safety in your entirety. This kind of risk is too hasty."
The same words have been repeated many times, but Qin Zhi still couldn't help speaking, knowing that it was impossible to persuade the emperor to turn around.
Compared with Qin Zhi, and the tension between his left and right cronies, Qin Nuo relaxed a lot, took Qin Zhi's hand, looked at Qin Zhi two more times, confirmed that there was no flaw, and teased: "My sister wears this suit and returns to the capital to ensure Enchanted by countless famous ladies."
"Brother Emperor!" Qin Zhi couldn't bear it, and groaned, "This is not the time to talk about this. Let me go north, I will definitely complete the same plan. I am also the heir of Emperor Wu, and I will never shame my ancestors. ."
Qin Nuo raised a hand and pressed a finger to her lips, stopping the next words.
"Don't worry about it, this time the strategy is perfect, and you have a little confidence in your emperor brother, OK?"
Qin Zhi bit her lip, her big bright eyes floated with water, and she was reluctant to leave.
Qin Nuo was helpless, "His Majesty in the ten-thousand-miles city opposite, he has also set foot on the battlefield since he was a teenager. After all his battles, he is now fifty years old. Isn’t it okay? The emperor can go. On the battlefield, isn't I, the emperor, terrible?"
"This is different." Qin Zhi shook his head, "How can those barbarians compare with the emperor brother?"
"But these barbarians are the confidant of my Da Zhou. If it is not contained in time, the situation will gradually deteriorate in the days to come." Qin Nuo said sternly, "This time I will take the risk for a longer time. Peace of mind."
In the end, Qin Nuo approached Qin Zhi and hugged her.
"Be obedient, return to Hangu Pass, wait a few days, and then you can hear the news of the emperor's victory."
"I'm waiting..." Qin Zhi couldn't bear it anymore, choked and said, "Brother Emperor, you must come back safely, not only me, but Sister Huo is also waiting for you."
Qin Nuo nodded vigorously, then he took Qin Zhi's hand and walked to the door.
Fang Yuan stood there silently, staring at Qin Nuo.
"Guangxi, I have entrusted my most important family to you."
Fang Yuan fell to the ground on one knee, "The minister must protect the princess in peace."
Qin Nuo helped him stand up, then handed Qin Zhi to him.
Fang Yuan stared at Qin Nuo deeply, "The emperor must also take care."
Qin Nuo nodded. In his mind, he wanted to keep Fang Yuan by his side, but Qin Zhi's safety was more important to him.
Time is running out, and there are many farewell words, but time is short.
Qin Zhiyi reluctantly let go of his brother's hand and stood beside Fang Yuan.
"Don't show such an expression. If everything goes well, we will meet again in three days." Qin Nuo made a relaxed face and smiled at Qin Zhi.
"Brother Emperor." Qin Zhi bit her lip.
Finally, she took a look at Qin Nuo. She put on her cloak, followed in the footsteps of Fang Yuan, and left this other courtyard.
There was silence in the yard, Qin Nuo closed his eyes and thought for a while, then opened his eyes.
"Leave Li Yi here, the plan is about to begin."
************
Under the gloomy night, a group of people galloped and left from the south gate.
Not long after riding a horse, Qin Zhi began to feel tired. Fortunately, she was very active and liked riding horses. After Qin Nuo took the throne, she supported her hobby so that she could barely keep up with the team's speed.
If it were replaced by other ladies who were strictly educated since childhood, it would be impossible to complete this plan at this time.
Fang Yuan approached the horse and whispered: "The princess will hold on for a while, and when you get to the front, you can change to the carriage."
Qin Zhi nodded, gritted his teeth stubbornly, "I can hold it, I'm just worried about Brother Emperor."
Fang Yuan was silent, he was also worried about the emperor, just because the plan this time was too risky.
********
The news of the emperor's return journey at night, although it was very tight, was heard by a small group of people.
In the embassy mansion where he lived, Han Guangzhao did not have the slightest intoxication at the banquet before. His eyes were bright and he frowned, "What's the point?"
"It is said that the emperor couldn't bear to see the parting scene of the princess getting married. It was too uncomfortable tonight. After saying goodbye to the princess, he simply left without seeing it. The task of sending the marriage was entrusted to Lord Shu. "
Han Guangzhao snorted coldly, "What a real brother who can't bear to leave, he said so, he is not worried about his life."
After all, this time Emperor Beishuo came to welcome his relatives and brought heavy soldiers. The emperor of Great Zhou grew up in the hands of women since he was a child. Although he was kind and intelligent, he had never been on the battlefield. When he arrived in this wild place, he felt fearful. Intention is inevitable.
Recalling that on the city wall at dusk today, the young emperor saw the majesty of ten-thousand-miles city and the brilliance of the wolf camp. His face was not good at that time. Afraid of night long dreams, it is normal to just leave early.
For Han Guangzhao and their layout, this is a variable, but it is also expected.
Thinking in the bad direction, they would not be able to successfully capture the emperor this time, but in the good direction, without the emperor in the city, the plan can proceed more smoothly. And their goal in this battle is not necessarily to win the emperor.
As long as the pass breaks open, no emperor will be a problem.
So what Han Guangzhao cares most is: "How is King Shu?"
The attendant whispered: "King Shu just got the news and wants to come over to see Master Han you during the night."
A trace of anger flashed between Han Guangzhao's eyebrows: "Let him stay steady and don't act rashly. Even if the emperor is gone, Li Yi and the others will stare at him."
The attendant hurried to send a message.
Han Guangzhao snorted coldly.
How can this group of corpse-bit vegetarian meals, the royal family who only knows how to eat, drink, and play can be compared with their talented Mu Family?
The general trend of the world belongs to them after all.
On this special night, almost none of the senior figures in Hengdao City could sleep peacefully.
Not to mention the turbulent undercurrent between Qin Xun and Han Guangzhao, Li Yi heard the news of the princess's call and hurriedly followed the eunuch to the backyard.
He dared not enter, but knelt down in the outer hall.
However, unexpectedly, the Qingyue figure walking out of the back hall was not a princess, but a young emperor.
As the general of Hengdao City Lord, he had already received the news that the emperor had left the city and returned to the pass just now with his cronies.
The emperor, naturally he can go whenever he wants to, no one dares to stop him.
But what happened to the person who appeared in front of him now? Li Yi was full of fright and doubt, until the emperor stepped forward and personally helped him up.
"Li Qing doesn't have to doubt, I really still stay in the city."
"The one who took people back to the pass before that..." Li Yi suddenly tightened his eyes.
"Yes, it is my imperial sister who left." The emperor explained his doubts calmly. During the day, he deliberately made a frightened look in front of Han Guangzhao, and no one suspected that he had escaped early.
Li Yi was in a mess, and the princess returned at this time, indicating that the emperor didn't want to marry his younger sister. But the emperor of Beishuo had already come to welcome the bride in person. Just stationed in the ten-thousand-miles city, what should the emperor do?
Or, the emperor never thought about telling anything...
Years of experience at the border tells Li Yi that the development of things may not be optimistic, and the emperor's words immediately turned this lack of optimism into shock.
"I don't have to confess to this group of guys, because they didn't come to welcome their relatives, but wanted to meddle with the invaders of my great Zhou tens of thousands of miles."
Qin Nuo opened the door straight to the point and told the news that the Detective Qianlin had heard before.
Then followed by his own counterattack plan.
Li Yi couldn't believe his ears, the emperor's plan turned out to be...
