The Nanman Queen sighed, a slightly sad look appeared on her face, which made her look even more lovable.
"After that silly boy returned to the Southern Barbarians, he asked his father for soldiers and horses, saying that he wanted to expand the territory for the Southern Barbarians. It took him a few days to attack two cities."
As she spoke, she glanced at Qin Rushuang sadly.
"That stupid boy acted so obviously, didn't he let his brother who was not a good person find the excuse? He just found an excuse and took away the military power in his hands, hoping to turn those two cities into our southern barbarians.
’s land.”
Qin Rushuang was stunned and said, "Indeed, the speed of the attack on the city is so fast that it's hard not to doubt..."
The Queen of Nanman glanced at her again, her eyes still a little sad, and said quietly: "I just don't know if he is really stupid...or if he can't wait for some people to come to Nanman to find him."
What these words said made Qin Rushuang unable to continue, so she could only start the conversation again.
"Then according to your wishes, Queen, the real person in charge of the Southern Barbarians' army now is Mu Duo's younger brother, so does Mu Duo's previous agreement with me not count?"
"It's hard to say. His younger brother Langzi is ambitious and definitely wants to really occupy these two cities. Moreover, he also used this matter to get Muduo to say that he occupied two cities effortlessly. He must be in conflict with
Da Qi has colluded, and now Mu Duo has been seized of military power. He has been waiting in front of his father all day long, and I don’t know when he will be finished..."
"Then today...why did the Queen come to me?"
Speaking of business, the Queen sat up straight, the enchantment on her body and face faded away, and there was a shrewd look in her eyes.
"I'm different from them. I have a clear mind and can see the situation clearly. It was only through your cooperation with Mu Duo that we could capture those two cities so quickly. It would be easy for Da Qi to send troops to fight back. It's a pity.
, the king and his brother could not see the situation clearly, and thought they could make mistakes and really capture those two cities."
"I don't have those vain thoughts, I just want more peace."
"So my idea is to ask King Huai to attack those two cities as soon as possible, so that the southern barbarians can recognize the reality, and also help me clear Mu Duo of the suspicion of collaborating with the enemy and treason."
"It's just..." the Nanman Queen's voice softened and she said, "Since Mu Duo led the troops to occupy those two cities as a show, I hope that when King Huai attacks the two cities back, he will also pity the lives of my Nanman soldiers.
.”
Qin Rushuang raised her eyebrows and finally heard the Queen's final purpose. She said calmly, "The Queen's request is said lightly..."
"Since the two armies are fighting, it is certain that there will be casualties. You ask King Huai to capture those two cities to clear Mu Duo's suspicion, and you also ask that the lives of our soldiers not be harmed. This is very difficult to handle!"
The Nanman Queen smiled cheerfully and said: "It's not difficult to do. I can give King Huai the distribution of the Nanman troops stationed in those two cities, and I can also tell you where the weaknesses of the Nanman soldiers are... With this information, it will be easy to win.
It is just a very easy thing to build two cities without harming the lives of the southern barbarian soldiers."
She glanced at Qin Rushuang and said, "My sincerity is enough. I just need Princess Huai to make it clear to my king that Mu Duo has not collaborated with the enemy and treason. Then the next step is to see Prince Huai and Princess Huai.
Isn’t your sincerity that sufficient?”
Qin Rushuang was very moved by the Nanman Queen's conditions, but there was no such thing as a free lunch.
It was impossible for her to let people take the initiative like this, so she said to the Nanman Queen, "The Queen also said that if our Qi soldiers and horses are serious about taking back these two cities, it will only be a matter of time, so why do we need to make a deal with you?"
?”
The queen smiled and said, "Since I dare to negotiate terms with you, I naturally have some information. As far as I know, your old emperor only gave King Huai 40,000 troops this time, right? With this number of people,
Shen Tai doesn't take me, the Nanman, seriously."
"Of course, I believe that King Huai and Princess Huai use their troops like gods, but if they use their true strength, these 40,000 troops may suffer heavy casualties after taking the city. Why bother?"
Qin Rushuang's heart sank.
This Nanman Queen looks like a beautiful woman, but I didn’t expect that the information in her hand is so well-informed, and she has a deep mind...
"Then what terms does the Queen want to negotiate with us?"
The Queen smiled and said: "My conditions are very simple. King Huai can leave the palace today and take the news I gave him to capture the two cities. As for Princess Huai..."
"I'm very curious about what kind of woman my son likes. Why not stay in the Nanman Palace as a guest for a few days."
"no!"
Before Qin Rushuang could answer, Xie Xun had already coldly rejected the Nanman Queen's proposal.
"Not to mention whether the information given by the queen is useful, how do I know if this is a trick by the queen to invite you to the urn? And even if everything goes well, as the queen expected, when the time comes you are unwilling to let him go, and I will find you again.
Who is going to reason?”
Of course, Xie Xun didn't say the reason. Apart from these, it was because of Mu Duo.
Mu Duo likes Qin Rushuang. When he was in Daqi, he did not dare to make any mistakes due to Qin Rushuang's status. Now in the Nanman Palace, he is both the prince and the queen's legitimate son. If he has any objection to Qin Rushuang,
think……
When Xie Xun thought of this, all the possible scenarios became more and more intense in his mind, making his face sink to the point of tears.
"How can I, the princess of Da Qi, stay in the palace of an enemy country and be put under house arrest by you! Where is the prestige of our country if word spreads!"
Queen Nanman glanced at him with an irritated look and said: "What did the prince say? What does house arrest mean? Princess Huai is my distinguished guest here, and we must treat her as honored guests."
"That's not possible, I don't agree."
Seeing Xie Xun's resolute attitude, the queen's face turned cold.
"It seems that we can't reach an agreement today. In this case, King Huai will find a way to regain those two cities on his own, but I'll say it first..."
"Even if someone slanders my son, he is my biological son after all. I will find a way to rid him of the suspicion after a while. But if you want to confront me, Nanman, more than one or two people will be killed or injured!"
Qin Rushuang knew that the queen was telling the truth. They really brought too few people this time. Even if they won, it would be a miserable victory.
Qin Rushuang was finally shaken.
"I can't believe the Queen's words. I only believe in Mu Duo. Where is he? If he says the same thing as you, Queen, I can agree to this deal for his sake."
When the queen heard this, her face was filled with a smile, and she shouted towards the corner: "Son, come out! Look, my mother said that Princess Huai still has you in her heart~ Didn't I just say that I only believe you and not me!"
It seems that you two really have a certain friendship, and I'm afraid that you're the only one who gets excited."
Qin Rushuang opened her mouth. She didn't know how to explain it. She just felt that she couldn't explain it. What did she mean?
When Xie Xun heard this, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Queen, please respect yourself! Rushuang is a married woman. We are loving husband and wife, and we already have Lin'er!"
However, the queen glanced at Xie Xun provocatively and said, "We Nanman don't care about this. It's natural for a man to fall in love with a woman. If two people fall in love, no matter what their status is, they can always overcome difficulties and be together."
"I'll leave it at that. My son likes Qin Rushuang. If Qin Rushuang is also interested in my son, then even if I travel thousands of miles to Daqi to ask for her, I will still ask Princess Huai to come to my Nanman for him to be his wife!"
Seeing Xie Xun's face getting darker and darker, Qin Rushuang coughed awkwardly and said to Queen Nanman, "Queen, if you still want our deal to continue, please stop talking."
If she continued, she was afraid that Xie Xun would immediately return to Kyoto to bring in troops and crush the Southern Barbarians!
