Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 78

[Chapter 78]

“It’s a good thing I had a good mind and got him back.” Zhang Kang broke into a cold sweat behind his back.

Chang Wei led the troops back in victory.

This means that all of Tuoba Lie’s plans failed.

“Also, the eunuch from the capital seems to have brought an imperial decree to King Yan…” Zhang Yue told Zhang Kang what he saw.   After Zhang Kang heard this, his face became even

more ugly. “Are they talking and laughing?

”   …   The Black Iron King Tent.   ”Crack!” A   whip volleyed down and hit Tuoba Lie’s face.   In an instant, there was a bloodstain on Tuoba Lie’s face.   Beads of blood gushed out from the wound.   Although it was painful, Tuoba Lie didn’t dare to say a word, but lowered his head even deeper.   ”Trash, such a simple thing can’t be done well. It caused us to lose 3,000 horses and over 2,000 servants in the black iron king’s tent. If this matter gets out, we will become a joke on the grassland.”   In front of Tuoba Lie stood a burly man.   The man was dressed in exquisite clothes made of wolf fur, the leather boots on his feet were pierced with wolf patterns, and the necklace around his neck was actually made of wolf teeth.   At this moment, there was anger on his characteristic black red face of the prairie people.   A fierce light flickered in the copper bell-like eyes.   ”Your Majesty, it’s Zhang Kang’s fault, otherwise I wouldn’t have failed.” Tuoba Lie wanted to tear Zhang Kang’s body to pieces.   If it wasn’t for the wrong information he provided, how could he be so bold.   He didn’t even notice that 3,000 people had left the Peking Camp.

He vowed that if he could go back this time, he would make Zhang Kang look good.

“Don’t use these excuses, Zhang Kang is also yours, and you are just as useless as him.” The man snorted angrily.

Walking in front of Tuoba Lie, he said coldly: “Our Black Iron King Tent has never suffered such humiliation. This humiliation must be repaid with blood. If Qiushou makes another mistake this time, both you and him will die!”

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty, there will be no more mistakes. According to Zhang Kang, the Yuan family also intends to get rid of this King Yan, and will not send troops to ask for help.” Tuoba Lie’s forehead was dripping with sweat.

There are ten tents in one court in Beidi, and one court is Khan’s court, which is the residence of Khan.

There are ten king tents under the khan, and the leader of each king tent is called a king, similar to the vassal kings of Dasong, each governing a grassland and obeying the orders of the khan.

And he belongs to the Ninth King’s Tent, a member of the Black Iron King’s Tent.

The man in front of him is the Nine Kings, named Kutu.

To him, what the king said was definitely not a joke.

“Well, it’s better that the Yanwang mansion is full of treasures and food as you said.” Kutu walked outside the king’s tent.

The wind from the north moves the boundless pasture like the ebb and flow of the tide.

The slight chill in the wind made him understand that the season of lush water and grass is coming to an end.

“Your Majesty, it is absolutely true. Although this King Yan is hateful, he has produced many weird things during this period of time. These things have earned him a lot of money. The fine wine that the King drank in the front row was also brewed by the Palace of Yan King. “Tuoba Lie exhausted the vocabulary in his heart to describe Yancheng as admirable.

He knew that only by saying this would he be worth something in Tutu’s heart.

“Furthermore, there are beauties in Yancheng recently. If you break into Yancheng, the beauties and wealth will belong to you, Your Majesty.

” The beauty is her own.

“The territory of the Beidi people has no boundaries. One day, we will lead the cavalry and crush the rivers and mountains of Dasong.” He remembered what Khan said when he stroked his head.

Turning his head to look at Tuoba Lie, he said: “Go back to Yanzhou, don’t let me down again.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Tuoba Lie bowed and slowly exited the king’s tent.

Wiping the cold sweat off his brow, he gritted his teeth and rode his fast horse towards Yanshan Mountain.

…

Yancheng.

After one day in Yancheng, Tong San will go back.

For him, Yancheng is still too desolate, far less prosperous than the capital.

There is no reason for him to stay for a few days.

“It’s really a pity that I can’t be close to my father-in-law for a few more days.” Zhao Xu sent Tong San to the south gate.

“Isn’t this little slave? It’s just that the emperor is waiting for this little slave to go back and reply to the order, so I don’t dare to stay any longer.” Tong San looked regretful.

“Since that’s the case, this king will not stay.” Zhao Xu cupped his hands.

Although I don’t like fake politeness, there is no way, that’s how communication is.

Tong San nodded, and escorted the Beidi prisoners to the south with two guards.

They were accompanied by a troop of pro-military soldiers.

After all, more than a hundred captives cannot be escorted by three or two people.

Watch Tong San leave.

Zhao Xu reined in his horse and turned back, and said to Xu Lie: “Go to Tianxiang Tower.”

A group of people entered Tianxiang Tower, and saw that the first floor of Tianxiang Tower was full of seats, full of rich merchants and children of wealthy families.

Xu E was sitting on the stage, playing the piano while singing the lyrics “Bodhisattva Man” that he wrote for him that day.

“The hills are overlapping and the gold is shining…”

Looking up and seeing Zhao Xu, Xu E’s gaze was fixed on Zhao Xu, but she sang freely.

The people below were also fascinated by the sound, and no one dared to make a noise.

After the song was sung, there was thunderous applause in the hall.   Someone

sighed: “I didn’t expect there to be such stunning words and such a beautiful song in the world   .

” Supported by Huan’er, she disappeared behind the screen.   Seeing Zhao Xu, he went straight up to the fourth floor and entered Xu E’s room.   ”Your Highness is here today to question the teacher?” Xu E poured Zhao Xu a cup of tea and asked softly.   ”Don’t you still expect this king to come and listen to your singing?” Zhao Xu snorted coldly, “If this king hadn’t found some clues, the corpse lying at the entrance of Qingfeng is my soldier.”   Xu E showed shame . , with reddish eye circles, “Your Highness, I didn’t expect such a mistake. They deliberately released this news to lure our people into being fooled. Now our Tianxiang Tower may also be targeted.”   ”Your Highness, forgive me for being rude. It wasn’t for my lady who revealed the news of the assassination to His Highness, the Zhang family would not have doubted that there are people from us in Qingfeng Village, and today’s incident would not happen.” Xiaohuan argued.   Xu Lie murmured: “Aren’t you trying to take advantage of His Highness?”   Xiaohuan looked at Xu Lie, “Saving Your Highness is both a business matter and a private matter…”   ”Shut up,” Xu E reprimanded at this time.   Upon hearing this, Zhao Xu cast a questioning look at Xu E.   Xu E smiled, and seemed unwilling to say it again, “This time it was indeed my Tianxianglou’s fault. If His Highness punishes you, I will be irrefutable.”   ”Forget it, you saved my king’s life after all.” Zhao Xu sighed.   After thinking for a while, he said, “It’s just that this king hopes that you can tell what you know. This is the sincerity of cooperation.”   Xu E was stunned for a moment, “What does Your Highness want to know?”

“What do you think this king wants to know?” Zhao Xu slowly leaned over and stared into Xu E’s eyes.
