47, fail!
Baili Qinghong walked into the tent and looked at Tuoba Yin sitting in the main seat without saying anything. Tuoba Yin looked up at him and frowned slightly. For a moment, the atmosphere in the tent became a little solemn. Both of them seemed to know what to say, but if they kept stalemate like this, it would only make the atmosphere even more awkward. Even the guards who led Baili Qinghong in seemed to feel this embarrassment, and they looked at the two of them for a moment at a loss.
In fact, the grudge between Baili Qinghong and Tuoba Liang is well known in Shangjing Imperial City. Although the two people involved seem to be barely peaceful over the years.
Princess Lingxi and Baili Qinghong were originally unmarried couples, but later Baili Qinghong married Princess Zhaoguo and Princess Lingxi entered Prince Chen's mansion. The relationship between the two was originally awkward. After Princess Lingxi died, there were rumors that Baili Qinghong had not yet fallen in love with Princess Lingxi, and Prince Chen's friendship with Princess Lingxi was even more... So, the situation is really embarrassing now.
"Sit." Tuoba Yin spoke first and said lightly. It seemed that Baili Qinghong was just an ordinary person and had no grudges with him.
Baili Qinghong was not polite, and walked to the side and sat down.
The guard quickly seized the opportunity and said, "I will leave." He hurriedly retreated.
There were only two people left in the big tent for a moment, and the atmosphere couldn't help but stagnate again.
"Your Majesty shouldn't have asked the prince to help me?" It was probably Tuoba Yin that finally felt that sitting here and looking at each other was a very stupid thing, so he decided to fight quickly and ask again. Baili Qinghong nodded slightly, Tuoba Yin turned his head and thought for a moment, and said, "Xie Tingze." At the same time, the eyes that looked at Baili Qinghong also changed slightly, but Baili Qinghong couldn't tell whether this look was good or bad.
Although Tuoba Yin did not like the intrigue in the court, he really didn't know anything. He just didn't like it. So, of course, he understood why Tuoba Liang sent Baili Qinghong to kill Xie Tingze for, and since Baili Qinghong took on this task, what did it mean to him and the situation in the future of Northern Jin.
Tuoba Yin snorted lightly and said lightly: "Then I wish the prince consort a success, but... from the situation just now, the prince consort seems to be not going well. Rong Wang reminds you that the matter of the eldest prince of Western Qin... cannot happen."
Although Qin Shu's death in Shangjing was not arranged by Tuoba Liang, since Baili Qinghong agreed to Tuoba Mingzhu to kill Qin Shu and Qin Shu finally returned to Western Qin alive, Baili Qinghong could not be doubted. Not only others suspected Baili Qinghong, but even Tuoba Mingzhu had suspected it. Not to mention that Tuoba Mingzhu was angry by Tuoba Liang because of this. Although I don't know how Baili Qinghong explained, Tuoba Liang probably didn't believe it. However, if Baili Qinghong could really bring Xie Tingze's head back to Shangjing, then everything before could naturally be written off. Even if Baili Qinghong was really still in a second mind, it would be his only choice when he killed Xie Tingze and Beijin.
"Thank you." Baili Qinghong finally said the first sentence after entering the war, although there were only two words.
Tuoba Yin seemed to not want to talk to him anymore, but just glanced at him lightly, called the guards guarding outside to arrange residence for Baili Qinghong, and then lowered his head and continued to look at the file in his hand. Baili Qinghong didn't say anything else, and followed the person who came in and walked out silently.
After a while, Tuoba Yin raised his head and looked at the empty tent, and suddenly sneered, "The eyes of Emperor Tianqi are really not very good."
The arrival of Baili Qinghong seemed to have not changed anything, and it seemed that something had changed quietly. Tuoba Yin still entered the Cangyun army as before, but Xie Tingze appeared in front of the army less often. Obviously, Xie Tingze was not the one who was holding on for the sake of face. He knew in his heart what Baili Qinghong wanted to do, and he knew that he was old and was not a match for Baili Qinghong at all, so he simply did not give Baili Qinghong this opportunity.
"Did Your Majesty ask the prince-in-law to supervise the army?" Tuoba Yin looked at Baili Qinghong, who was also sitting on the horse's back, and asked calmly. It has been two days since Baili Qinghong arrived. Except for Baili Qinghong's sudden attack on Xie Tingze when he first arrived, Tuoba Yin hardly saw him do anything. Whether it was the matter in the army or the assassination of Xie Tingze. As a general, Tuoba Yin disdained to use such means to deal with a veteran general, but as the King of Shen of the Northern Jin Dynasty, Tuoba Yin did not mind using any means to end this meaningless confrontation.
Baili Qinghong turned his head and said calmly: "I will naturally do what Your Majesty told me to do, but how to do it...it seems to have nothing to do with King Chen."
Tuoba Yin said: "Six years ago, Your Majesty ordered the son-in-law to pursue Xie Tingze, and Xie Tingze disappeared. Three years ago, the son-in-law went south to assassinate Emperor Yongjia, and Mr. Baili changed his target without authorization. Emperor Yongjia was safe and sound, and Mr. Changli was seriously injured. Half a year ago, the eldest prince of Xiqin was assassinated, and the eldest prince of Xiqin was resurrected from the death..." Baili Qinghong's eyes changed slightly and he said coldly: "What does King Chen mean?" Tuoba Yin said: "I am just reminding the son-in-law that you have no capital to lose again, so it is best not to change your goals by yourself. I don't care whether Xie Tingze dies, but... Your Majesty may not care."
"No need to remind King Chen." Baili Qinghong said coldly: "King Chen has the ability to care about my other people's business, so it's better to care about Tuoba Luo." After that, Baili Qinghong ignored Tuoba Yin and turned around and left the formation as he lifted the reins. The deputy general who followed them to listen to their confrontation frowned and couldn't help asking, "Prince, that Baili Qinghong won't really..."
Tuoba Yin looked at the place where Baili Qinghong left, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "When it reaches this point, even if it is fake, it can only become real. There is no need to worry, I can't kill Xie Tingze... He doesn't have to go back."
The deputy general was a little uneasy, "Your Majesty really wants to use this person?" It's not that he judges a gentleman with a villain's heart. Of course, Baili Qinghong is not a gentleman either. But... it is really scary to be able to achieve the level of Baili Prince Consort. If your Majesty dares to use such a person, isn't you afraid that Baili Qinghong will backfire? Tuoba Yin naturally understands what his subordinates are thinking and said lightly: "Your Majesty lacks a top master like General Tuoba. He has no choice but to Baili Qinghong."
In fact, if it is normal, Tuoba Yin is the most suitable person to replace Tuoba Xingye. If he is given a few more years, his reputation in martial arts may not be inferior to Tuoba Xingye. But now, the most unlikely Tuoba Liang is to use Tuoba Yin. The stronger the Tuoba Yin, the more Tuoba Liang needs a fairly good master to check and balance him.
The deputy general frowned and said, "Didn't you hear that Queen Jinlian's brother is also an amazing person?"
Tuoba Yin said: "Why is the wolf master from the frontier who is willing to live under others? How can the brother of a queen who has no descendants be assured as his biological father who is his grandson?"
The deputy general nodded, "That's right."
How could it be? If the deputy general reads more historical records from the Central Plains, he will know that not to mention the biological father of his nephew, even his own father may not be reliable.
In the big tent of Xie Tingze's army, Xie Tingze sat in the tent and closed his eyes to rest. There was some fatigue between his eyebrows. His old face looked much haggard under the candlelight at this time, like an old man who was over 70 years old. A light sound came from outside the tent. Xie Tingze opened his eyes vigilantly, and the sharp light in his eyes shot towards the door. The door of the tent was silent, and the footsteps of soldiers patrolling not far away could be heard quietly.
However, Xie Tingze did not relax. He quickly turned around and looked at the screen behind him. At some point, a figure had already appeared behind the screen.
Baili Qinghong walked out of the back of the screen in a black suit in silence. Seeing that it was him Xie Tingze, he was not surprised. He just looked at him for a long time before saying, "I don't know... the ability I taught you back then actually asked you to do such a thing?"
Baili Qinghong was not only taught by Xie Tingze, but also martial arts. However, Baili Qinghong is indeed talented. Xie Tingze once said that Baili Qinghong could surpass his superiors if he was only as good as the champion. Later, he did respond. But Xie Tingze was naturally extremely happy, and was very comforted because he had successors. If you could think that Baili Qinghong, who had become the top master in martial arts in more than ten years, did not use his ability to protect the country and the people as he expected, but instead used his ability to assassinate his own teachers.
"Sorry, teacher." Baili Qinghong's voice was a little calm and she lowered her eyes.
Xie Tingze raised his hand and interrupted him, saying, "No need to do this. It has been so many years, and both you and I should like it. Now it's just for their own masters. Let's do it."
Baili Qinghong's eyes were dull for a moment, but Xie Tingze's eyes were firm and sharp, just like a knife that made Baili Qinghong feel a little painful.
Baili Qinghong raised his hand silently, and a dagger appeared in his hand.
Xie Tingze stood up, stared at Baili Qinghong and said coldly: "Do you even dare to come out the sword now?"
“…”
For Xie Tingze now, there is actually no difference between Baili Qinghong using a dagger or a sword. No matter what he uses, Baili Qinghong is sure to kill Xie Tingze in one move without making any sound. If he was ten years younger, Xie Tingze might still have the power to fight Baili Qinghong. Now Xie Tingze is indeed old. Xie Tingze stared at Baili Qinghong and said in a deep voice: "Draw the sword, take action."
Baili Qinghong closed his eyes, and the next moment the dagger disappeared in his hand. A silver light swept up, and he had already drawn his sword and unsheathed the sword and pointed it straight at Xie Tingze. Xie Tingze did not move. He was standing between the table and the chair, which was not suitable for action. Moreover, with his current physical strength and reaction, he could no longer avoid Baili Qinghong's sword. So he did not dodge or avoid, but just looked at Baili Qinghong steadily.
With a clinking sound, a figure swept into the tent like lightning and blocked Xie Tingze's.
Swords collided, and Mars flew everywhere.
Baili Qinghong quickly took a step back, looked indifferently at the person who suddenly appeared in front of Xie Tingze and said, "I haven't seen you for half a year, and the princess has improved again." It was obvious that he drew the sword first, even though he did not use all his strength, the visitor could snatch his sword in front of Xie Tingze and blocked Xie Tingze. He came first and then came first, and this skill should not be underestimated.
The person who came was Chu Ling. Chu Ling looked like he was exhausted at this time and obviously came in a hurry. He just blocked the sword for Xie Tingze. Although it did not fall below, Chu Ling's face was still a little pale when the internal force stormed and collided.
Chu Ling looked back at Xie Tingze and smiled at him, then turned around and looked at Baili Qinghong and said, "The Prince Consort Baili, it's not appropriate to break into the camp of Cangyun City at night?"
Baili Qinghong said, "Is that so? Is it appropriate for the princess of the dignified God Blessing to appear in the camp of Cangyun City at this time?"
Chu Ling smiled and said, "Does the prince consort think there is something inappropriate?"
Baili Qinghong stared at Chu Ling and after a while, he said, "Princess, you know too much and you care too much. Get out of the way."
Chu Ling said, "Mr. Prince Consort, if I were you, I would leave immediately without looking back. Do you think you have me here, do you still have a chance tonight?" Even if she is really not a match for Baili Qinghong, as long as they fight, they will immediately alarm the soldiers in the camp. How can Baili Qinghong have a chance? What's more, she doesn't think she will not be able to beat Baili Qinghong. Baili Qinghong was silent, but Chu Ling stood in front of Xie Tingze with a smile on his face.
I don't know how long it took, Baili Qinghong suddenly turned around without saying a word and disappeared in front of the two of them.
Seeing Baili Qinghong's figure disappearing outside, Chu Ling blinked for a while before breathing a sigh of relief, "It's considered leaving."
"Master, Princess?" Xie Tingze looked at Chu Ling in surprise. Chu Ling walked to the side and tilted into the chair. He smiled at Xie Tingze with exhaustion and said, "Gen. Xie, you are rude."
Xie Tingze said, "Thank you for saving your life, but... Princess, you are..." Seeing Chu Ling's listless look, Xie Tingze said in confusion. Chu Ling smiled helplessly. They were already a little late when they received the news, and Chu Ling didn't care about waiting for Xiao Shi to meet up and rushed to the ground. Even when he was leaning against Cangyun City, he heard that Baili Qinghong had arrived, and Chu Ling didn't dare to delay at all. Even Yun Xingyue was left behind by her. Fortunately, she rushed all the way and just happened to catch up. Otherwise, when they arrived here, Xie Tingze would have been cold.
However, if Baili Qinghong really fought with her desperately just now, she might not be able to stop Baili Qinghong's desperate attack in this state of fatigue.
Only then did Xie Tingze realize that Princess Shenyou came to help him, and he was also very moved. He was loyal to Ancestor for most of his life, but a few years ago, he was really disappointed by the Ancestor court. But His Highness came day and night to help him, and even saved his life. I have to say that things are unpredictable.
Xie Tingze solemnly bowed to Chu Ling, "Thank you for your life-saving kindness."
Chu Ling was startled and hurriedly supported Xie Tingze and said, "The old general doesn't have to be so polite. Isn't this what you should do? Jun Wuhuan is far away on the border. Even if I am not Princess Apocalypse, it's unreasonable to be able to save me nearby but not save me." Chu Ling was really afraid of losing her life after such an old man who had devoted himself to the Apocalypse to pay homage to her. Just looking at Chu Ling's condition, Xie Tingze knew that she was very tired. No matter how many she had, she wouldn't say much at this time, so she had to go out to exchange for the soldiers in the camp and let someone prepare a residence for Chu Ling. Fortunately, there were still one or two more tents in the army, and soon someone came to report that the residence had been arranged.
Chu Ling broadcasted the few people in charge of Xie Tingze's safety on demand before he went to rest with a look of sleepiness.
So many people protected Xie Tingze and were quietly sneaked into the tent. It is indeed time for these people to practice.
"You failed again."
Baili Qinghong just stepped into the place where he was standing, and stopped just after stepping into one foot, looking sharply at the person sitting in the tent - Tuoba Yin!
Tuoba Yin sat upright behind the desk, looking at the door and looking at Baili Qinghong coldly. Baili Qinghong said sternly: "If I remember correctly, this is my residence!"
Tuoba Yin said: "This is my army."
Baili Qinghong snorted coldly, and one hand pressed on the hilt of the sword around his waist. Tuoba Yin naturally saw it, but he swept over as if he had seen nothing and said: "Your Majesty sent someone to send a letter."
Upon hearing this, Baili Qinghong frowned slightly. Tuoba Liang's letter came just a few days ago. Could it be that Tuoba Yin was staring at him? If so, why would Tuoba Yin tell him?
Tuoba Yin reached out to hand over a letter. Baili Qinghong lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, but still reached out to take the letter.
When I opened it, it was indeed Tuoba Liang's handwriting. The content of the letter was not beyond Baili Qinghong's expectations. It was just instructing Tuoba Yin to let Baili Qinghong kill Xie Tingze. Tuoba Liang certainly would not write boring words like Tuoba Yin surveillance Baili Qinghong, but he repeatedly reminded Tuoba Yin to assist Baili Qinghong in completing this task at all costs. He didn't say anything else. Obviously, Tuoba Liang absolutely believed that Tuoba Yin could understand his meaning himself. If Tuoba Yin could not understand, then he could not be King Shen.
Tuoba Yin looked at Baili Qinghong who was looking down at the letter in front of him, and recalled the words at all costs in his heart, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
What did Tuoba Yin think he was doing? He was willing to spend a lot of money for the chess piece Baili Qinghong.
Baili Qinghong raised his head and looked at Tuoba Yin, and said in a deep voice: "Why do you want to show me this? Are you in the inner room?"
"Inside?" Tuoba Yin's voice was a little strange, and his eyes were also a little strange when he looked at Baili Qinghong. After a while, he asked indifferently: "Do you need this king to be alienated?"
Baili Qinghong frowned, "What's that for?"
Tuoba Yin said: "Of course, it is to execute Your Majesty's order. Your Majesty wants Xie Tingze's head. I want to cross this roadblock to reinforce the border. Maybe the prince-consort can afford to drag it, but I and the soldiers of the Northern Jin Dynasty cannot. So... I hope to be able to fight quickly and decide quickly according to Your Majesty's instructions." When he said this, Tuoba Yin's eyes were also staring at Baili Qinghong. There was no change in Baili Qinghong's face. After a long time of silence, he frowned slightly and said, "Chu Qingyi is here."
Tuoba Yin was slightly stunned, Baili Qinghong looked at it and repeated, "Chu Qingyi has arrived in Xie Tingze's army, so I failed. If King Chen wants to do anything, it would be best to even count Chu Qingyi."
Tuoba Yin raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "Chu Qingyi...how did he appear here?"
Baili Qinghong did not answer, Tuoba Yin thought for a moment before sighing, "No matter why she is here, since she is here, I can only think that she is our enemy. The plan needs to be changed. Is Baili's son-in-law interested in listening?"
Baili Qinghong said, "Look at me with your ears."
Tuoba Yin reached out and spread the map on the side, spread it on the table, saying, "Please look at the prince consort."
In the big tent, two men who originally disliked each other really stood together and discussed things calmly for the first time because of the same enemy.
Chapter completed!
