Chapter 64 The lost jade pendant (8)
The attendant looked pale and said with sweat on his head: "I don't know either. I had the courage to ask the officer leading the army, and he said... He said he wanted to catch the Huns' spies!"
"Spy? From the Huns? Who?" Motuo's eyes suddenly became dark and he asked one after another.
"Yes...it's you!" the attendant said, lowering his head, and then continued in a voice as low as a gnat.
"They said... they said that the Huns invaded and killed many soldiers and civilians on the border. His Majesty was furious, so that's why he sent them to the post house?"
"What? The Huns invaded the territory? Or at this time?" A sharp look flashed in Murtuo's eyes.
This is what his good uncle did on purpose!
Does he want him to stay in Dazhou forever and never return to the Huns?
It is indeed a deep calculation!
However, the Northwest King always guarded the northwest gate of the Great Zhou Dynasty tightly. How could the Xiongnu invade so easily this time?
Motuo's eyes narrowed and he said coldly: "Prepare some paper and ink for me. I want to write a note to the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty. This matter has nothing to do with me!"
After hearing this, the attendant hurriedly prepared things for him, and he immediately started writing quickly. After a while, a memorial was written.
He dried the ink on it, handed it to the attendant and said: "Go, quickly go and give it to the officer outside, and ask him to deliver it to the Emperor of Zhou on my behalf."
The attendant responded repeatedly and went out, but after a while he came back with a pale face. Seeing the fold in his hand, Motuo's face darkened again.
"What's going on?"
"The officer refused to hand it over on his behalf," the attendant said with a grimace.
"Why?"
"They said that the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty said that it was abominable for the Xiongnu to renege on his promise, so if our Xiongnu did not retreat, he would not see His Highness. If our Xiongnu dared to take another step forward, the Great Zhou Dynasty would tie the prince to the border town.
Sacrifice the flag on the flagpole!”
"What!" Motuo sat on his seat with a blue face and said bitterly, "Confused, really confused. I didn't expect that the Emperor of Zhou was actually a fool who only wanted to please women?"
At this moment, I heard a cold voice coming from outside the door: "Your Highness, who are you calling a fool? Don't forget where this place is!"
As he said that, a figure flashed into the room. When he saw the person, Murtaugh was immediately stunned...
…
The news of the Xiongnu invasion came when He Bayu was in Moyou Palace that night.
When he heard the news, his expression changed and he immediately left and returned to Qinzheng Hall.
Mo Wanyi woke up after being drunk and found out about this, so naturally she was very unlucky.
I lamented that a good opportunity to go to bed was spoiled by the Huns' Tatars.
And by the next morning, all the better-informed concubines in the palace knew the news of the Huns' massive invasion, and they started talking about it.
After all, the Xiongnu and the Zhou Dynasty had not been at war for nearly twenty years, and now they are at war again. It is not known how long it will last.
When this news was brought to Liangxi Pavilion by Xiaoyu, Ah Jiu was sulking.
However, the child she gave birth to this time was not He Bayu's child, but Lin Wanqing's child.
Especially when I saw Thirteen shivering at her feet, and the recovered neck bell on his neck, I had mixed feelings in my heart!
She said that the sword was real, but the neck bell was no longer the one belonging to Thirteen. Instead, someone had already taken advantage of her.
