Chapter 323: Foggy Moon City Changes Owners (2)
At that time, he wanted to sit in the position of king, which was just a breeze, but he would not do it. The four major families on the mainland had a transcendent status. In fact, with their ability, which one of them could not be self-proclaimed as king, but why not do this? Because of the limitations, once self-proclaimed as king, either take the path of continued expansion. Xiao Han was obviously unwilling to fight for dominance of the world, so it would not work, or he would go to his own territory. Once you cross the boundary, you would inevitably be warned by neighbors, thinking that if you want to expand, you would inevitably provoke a war. Therefore, self-proclaimed as king seems to be glorious, but it is somewhat expansive. But being a marquis is different. His behavior does not represent the behavior of the state. Even if your power is spread throughout the continent, as long as you fulfill your duties in every country and pay taxes according to the rules, those countries will naturally not hostile to you.**
If Xiao Han becomes the king, he will lose his transcendent status on the continent, so he will not do such stupid things.
Outside Yongle Town, the Black Armored Army Camp.
"Report! Marquis, the 3,000 inner-level troops of His Highness the Second Prince surrounded the camp of our Black Armored Army!"
"Report, the guards of His Highness the Second Prince asked for a visit!"
Marquis Cage kept paced in his central army tent. The situation was already quite serious. The second prince ordered the inner army's army to surround his Black Armored Army camp to have obviously believed the rumor!
The reason why I stayed here was to prove my innocence, but no one believed his proof. He really regretted that he had spread rumors when he heard Ye Zhiqiu's words, which made the second prince Yuehao collided directly with Fengcheng, and he sat in the mountains and watched the tiger fight!
Now, I've shot myself in the foot!
The storm has been coming for many years, and Marquis Cage believes that he will not be able to survive this time.
"Come, change clothes, I'm going to see His Highness the Second Prince!"
"Marty, you can't go. This time you go, it's a sheep entering the tiger's mouth!" Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly grabbed Marquis Kechi and said.
"Mr. Ye. If I hadn't listened to you, how could this marquis have fallen into such a situation?" Marquis Kechi said angrily.
"Marty, it was Zhiqiu who suggested that the Martyr spread rumors. But no one would have thought that there was really a treasure under the manor?" Ye Zhiqiu said aggrievedly.
"Mr. Ye. You are said to be a perfect plan. Why did you drag the Marquis into such a dangerous situation this time? You are the spy sent by Fengcheng!" Master Xilin pulled the sword in his hand and was about to rush over and chop Ye Zhiqiu with a sword.
"Rareless. Military Advisor Xilin has been with this marquis for several years. The wind demon Xiao Han has only risen for a year or two. How can we calculate today's affairs? It's too arbitrary!" Marquis Kage scolded.
"Hmph!" Xilin snorted coldly, withdrew the sword and retreated.
"The villain has seen the marquis!" The guard who was asking for his meeting was released and entered the central army's tent.
"Have you sent you something?" asked Marquis Cage.
The guard said, "The Second Highness said that he finally went home to reunite with his wife, and he worked tirelessly for the sake of treasure. The Second Highness couldn't bear it, so he sent someone to bring his wife and Lord Xia to reunite with you!"
"What?" Marquis Cage was furious when he heard this, his eyes turned dark and he leaned down and fell backwards.
"Marquis!" Xilin's great sword master was wise and his hands were almost holding up the fallen body of Marquis Kechi.
"Child Yuehao, you're too bullying!" Marquis Kage did not faint and Xilin pushed her so hard. He had already opened his eyes Qingming and shot out a strong hatred gaze and roared!
Although the fat woman was reluctant to die now, the second prince actually captured his wife and brother-in-law, obviously he was trying to tear her face off for the sake of treasure!
Marquis Cage suddenly felt that the biggest mistake he made in his life was to choose to cooperate with the second prince, a narrow-minded person!
"The Second Prince also asked me to tell the Marquis that what should be yours is yours, and what should not be yours will never get it."
"I will remember, come and see the guests!" Marquis Kage was so angry that his whole body was trembling. If he was still a little rational, he might order the guard to behead him and break with the second prince Yuehao publicly!
"Marty, what should I do now? The Second Highness is forcing you to the dead end!" Xilin asked. In fact, he also wanted to know if the treasure fell into the hands of Marquis Kage.
Marquis Cage remained silent. Now he was only surrounding the camp of the Black Armored Army. But until tomorrow, if no treasure was found underground, it would be more than just surrounding it. It is possible to meet with swords and weapons.
"Mr. Marquis, why not ask the two adults to rescue the wife and Viscount Xia back?" Ye Zhiqiu said.
"Time is too tight, and we have completely lost contact with the outside world. We don't know where our wife and Viscount Xia are locked up. How to save it?" Xilin retorted, "In my opinion, the best way now is to find someone to sneak out and return to the city to dispatch troops. As long as our army arrives, what can the Second Highness do to me?"
"Then General Xilin thinks, how many soldiers should we transfer?" Ye Zhiqiu asked with a sneer.
"Forty thousand black armored troops, leave 10,000 to defend the city!" Xilin said.
"Have General Xilin considered that once the Marquis transferred his army to come, it would confirm the fact that the treasure was obtained by our Marquis. The Marquis may not be able to explain clearly even if they opened a hundred mouths." Ye Zhiqiu said.
"What do you think of? Let's wait for death here?
He glared at him.
Ye Zhiqiu was also silent. The game in front of him seemed to be a dead end. No matter what decision Marquis Cage made, he would enter the underground passage tomorrow. It would be fine if the treasure was revealed below, and everyone would be happy. If there was no treasure, it would be quite bad for Marquis Cage.
Although Cage is the local master, there are too many strong dragons. How can a local snake beat so many strong dragons?
"Send someone to send an order to transfer the Black Armored Army over!" Marquis Cage made this decision, as if he had suddenly become ten years older.
"Yes, Marquis!" Xilin looked at Ye Zhiqiu coldly and turned around and walked out of the central army's tent.
Si in Xilin's eyes understood that at the most critical moment, it was still a fist to solve the problem, and it was useless to rely on his mouth!
Ye Zhiqiu had to set the responsibility for causing this situation. If it weren't for the fact that he had encouraged Marquis Cage to take advantage of the greed of the second prince Yuehao, he seemed to have designed a good show of watching the tiger fight, and everything would have deviated from his vision. And even a master used his move to drag Marquis Cage in, and the deeper it became, and he could not extricate himself!
As a plan, Ye Zhiqiu found that he was a complete failure in Zi Yun's hands. He was still a little dissatisfied. This time, even his opponent was completely defeated, and it hit his proud heart in an instant!
I, Ye Zhiqiu, really can't do it? Time, he felt sorry for his wisdom!
Ye Zhiqiu left the army tent in a lost state and returned to his tent in a daze.
Ye Zhiqiu had no relatives. Apart from the two maids whom he called, there was rarely a fourth person in her tent. Moreover, he did not like extravagance or lust, but only had something to do in the cup, so his tent was never short of good wine.
The Marquis of Cage also regarded his preferences and collected a lot of good wine to give him. Therefore, the affection between the master and the servant was considered to be profound, which was one of the reasons why he tried his best to plan for him.
He was not a man in the army or a counselor, so the heroes around Marquis Cage were qualified to have a separate tent.
"Huh!" Ye Zhiqiu lifted the curtain, and what was greeted by him was not the two tender maids who were as tender as water, but a sharp blade that shone with cold light.
"Ye Zhiqiu, Military Advisor Ye?" A cold greeting came from Ye Zhiqiu's ears.
In the huge tent, Zhiqiu saw that the two beautiful maids serving him were tied together back to back, and both of them had cloth sticks in their mouths, making them unable to make a sound.
"Who are you?" Ye Zhiqiu asked in horror. He didn't dare to turn around, and he didn't even dare to turn it, for fear that the sharp blade would cut his throat.
"Marquis Cage is very respectful to Military Commander Ye. These two delicate beauties are willing to give them to you." Chen Yu turned around with a smile. Marquis Cage's Black Armored Army camp was basically unguarded for thieves like Chen Yu. She came in as long as she wanted to come in, and went out as she wanted to go out.
"Miss, we have no grudges recently, and we have no grudges in the past. Besides, I don't know you, why do you treat me like this?" Ye Zhiqiu asked nervously.
"Of course, you don't know me, but I can't come to you for no reason. Why don't you guess your wisdom? " Chen Yu smiled, and he couldn't help but make Ye Zhiqiu feel in his heart. The woman who caught him was several times more beautiful than the two who were tied up and could not speak!
"What are you guessing?" Ye Zhiqiu asked naughtyly.
"For example, what are you trying to catch me?" Chen Yu smiled.
Ye Zhiqiu calmed down and said, "You must not be sent by the Second Highness. I basically know who the Second Highness has, and none of them match you."
"Where am I from?"
"I think you can only be sent by the Deputy General Ziyun General of the Head of the Head. Apart from her, I really can't think of anyone who would be interested in me, a strategist who has no power!" Ye Zhiqiu said.
"You really treat yourself as a character!" Chen Yu smiled, "But you really guessed it right. I did come by the orders of the Chief Ziyun."
"But she ordered you to kill me?" Ye Zhiqiu asked nervously. After all, people are afraid of death. Not afraid of death is because there are reasons why they are not afraid of death.
"If you want to kill you, you won't let you live to this day." Chen Yu took back the short sword in his hand and said with a smile.
Ye Zhiqiu is not the kind of uninformed civilian. Although the other party took back the dagger, if he made a move to escape or reported the news to the outside world, it would have become a corpse before he could do it.
"What do you want me to do for you?" Ye Zhiqiu asked.
"Ye Zhiqiu, has Marquis Kage sent someone back to mobilize troops?" Chen Yu asked.
"How did you know?" Ye Zhiqiu's face changed drastically.
"Your conversations in the central army tent are all in my ears. Why don't you know?" Chen Yu smiled as he played with the short sword in his hand.
