In the palace, the guards below came to report that General Jiang Li was here. After General Zhao Xin heard this, he came up and asked first, "How many people does General Jiang bring with him?"
"Reporting to General Zhao, General Jiang only brought two soldiers."
Listening to this answer, both Yuan Yi and Zhao Xin couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. From this point of view, Jiang Li would have no problem. Otherwise, he should not only bring two people with him. This seems to have been the case.
Prove his innocence.
Of course, this alone was not enough to explain the problem. They still had to ask Jiang Li personally before they could really feel at ease.
So, Jiang Li was soon brought to the main hall of the palace. At this time, Yuan Yi was already sitting high up. General Zhao Xin stood aside, his hand touching the waist knife seemingly unintentionally. A picture of what if Jiang Li had done something wrong.
Behavior, he will take the first step to take it down.
Regarding these, Jiang Li naturally saw this in his eyes, and his heart was beating wildly, but his expression remained as usual. He bowed to Yuan Yi and said, "I have seen your Majesty at last."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, General Jiang. How is the battle situation on the tower?"
"If I tell you, Your Majesty, if the soldiers fight tooth and nail, there will be no problem in defending the city." Jiang Li replied with clasped fists.
"That's good." Yuan Yi felt relieved when he heard that the city was safe. Then he thought of business and asked with a serious face, "General Jiang, has anything special happened to you recently?
?"
"Ah! Does the king know?" After hearing this, Jiang Li suddenly raised his head, with a look of surprise on his face.
As soon as such an answer came out, the atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became tense, especially when General Zhao Xin involuntarily moved closer to Yuan Yi, as if he was protecting him and could unsheath his sword at any time.
Yuan Yi's expression was constantly changing, thinking in his mind, is this letter true? Is Jiang Li really going to betray him?
Just when Yuan Yi and Zhao Xin were guessing something, Jiang Li stood there and said, "Your Majesty, some Huns sneaked into the city to contact the general, and they also offered various benefits, but
Mo Jiang is the king's man in life and the king's ghost in death. How could he betray him? So without saying a word, he let people kill the Huns. Oh, the two captains of three thousand men under Mo Jiang knew about this.
Yes, your Majesty can go and ask. Hey, speaking of it, this is not a big deal. The general did not report it. Now that the King knows it, it must have been said by his subordinates. Haha, they are really loyal."
Following Jiang Li's words, things completely changed. Not only did he reveal himself, but he also hinted that Xiao Qi Wang Yuan Yi had arranged people around him. Otherwise, why would such a thing be known to the king?
Doesn't this mean that the king doesn't trust him?
Such a result was completely beyond Yuan Yi's expectation.
This answer also cleared away all doubts about Jiang Li. Looking at it now, it was clearly a countermeasure adopted by the Huns after they wanted to say that they could not work out with Jiang Li.
Thank you for not believing what was written in the letter. Otherwise, you would have wronged others and harmed your own strength.
Thinking that calling Jiang Li over this time had aroused the other party's dissatisfaction, Yuan Yi quickly stood up from his seat and said apologetically, "General Jiang, everything is a misunderstanding. Your people did not report to the other party."
Whatever the king reports, everything is caused by this letter."
As he spoke, Yuan Yi took out the previous letter and took the initiative to deliver it to Jiang Li.
With a trace of doubt, Jiang Li took the letter and read it. His heart beat faster at that moment. He didn't expect that he had done so secretly and was discovered by someone. Fortunately, he handled it well and turned the danger into a disaster.
install.
And after what happened just now, Yuan Yi would not send anyone to investigate this matter. Otherwise, wouldn't it show his distrust of Jiang Li?
"Hmph! These Huns, who have failed to bribe their generals, actually resorted to this kind of alienation trick." After reading the letter, Jiang Li, who came back to his senses, immediately expressed his stance.
"Yes, these Huns are so hateful, but this also shows that we fought well in the defense of Lucheng, and they are a little at their wits' end." General Zhao Xin on the side also stepped forward and expressed his opinion at the same time,
It is also equivalent to supporting Jiang Li.
The matter was settled, the suspicion was gone, and the harmony between the monarch and his ministers remained as before. Jiang Li looked angrily and expressed that he would return to the city tower and kill more Huns to avenge him.
Jiang Li has not forgotten that if he does not leave the palace for two hours, his soldiers will rebel. The situation is now very good, and there is no need to take risks.
Both Yuan Yi and Zhao Xin could understand Jiang Lisheng's hateful look, and immediately let him go and let him return to the tower.
A crisis was resolved like this. I don't know whether it was Jiang Li who handled it well, or whether Yuan Yi trusted his subordinates too much and was too confident in his own charm. But in a few hours, he would regret all this.
Jiang Li left safely and returned to the city tower, and became more determined to cooperate with the Huns. Without him, his actions were noticed by others. This time, he dealt with it properly, but next time, I'm afraid,
You won't have such good luck again and again, right?
In order to prevent long nights and long dreams, the only way to determine the overall situation is to quickly connect the Huns into the city. Then naturally, you will not be afraid of anyone staring at you.
And if all this was known to Suoshou, he would definitely be dumbfounded. Speaking of which, it is no wonder that he is, after all, in the eyes of Xiao Qi Wang Yuan Yi, he has always been an outsider who dare not even show his face, and his words have some meaning.
How many people can be trusted?
It was evening soon. The Huns army had already retreated, and Lucheng fell into the silence of night again.
After Jiang Li got off the city tower, he came to the west gate and began to make preparations to open the city gate.
After what happened during the day, neither Xiao Qi Wang Yuan Yi nor Zhao Xin doubted him anymore. He would use this short opportunity of trust to do what he thought was right.
At midnight, more and more Xiongnu troops appeared outside the West City.
In order for this operation to go smoothly, not only the Ganren people's army came, but also 20,000 Huns cavalry. They will be the first batch to rush into the city after the city gate is opened. Only in this way can we guarantee that nothing will happen.
Accident.
As soon as midnight arrived, the west city gate was opened from the inside, and a torch appeared, shaking several times in the air.
The code was correct, and 20,000 Huns cavalry entered the city quickly. The sound of cavalry stamping on the ground soon caused chaos in the whole Lucheng. In the palace, the Huns cavalry entered the city. When the news reached Yuan who had just been pulled up,
When Yi heard it, he naturally didn't believe it. Until General Zhao Xin, dressed in armor, led people into the palace and came to his side, explaining that the Huns cavalry entered through the west gate, where General Jiang Li was guarding the gate.
, he suddenly realized.
"Oh my god, this Jiang Li actually betrayed me and betrayed me. He is such a bastard. He gave Lucheng away. It didn't matter that he harmed me. He also harmed the fifty thousand soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people in the city. What’s your last name?”
At this time, Yuan Yi was very remorseful. Why didn't he arrest Jiang Li after receiving the letter? If he did, how could these things happen?
By now, it was too late to say anything. Under the protection of Zhao Xin and his personal guards, Yuan Yi and his party could only find a way to break out. But when they had just gathered and took their weapons, outside the palace He was surrounded by the Huns cavalry who entered the city.
"King Xiao Qi, you have been surrounded. Surrender now and you can avoid death." Soon, the sound of rape came from outside the mansion.
"Fart, I would rather die than surrender to you aliens. Come on, follow me and fight out." Yuan Yi said angrily, and then asked someone to open the door of the palace and rush out.
At the gate of the palace, two thousand Huns cavalry and archers had been waiting here for a long time. After seeing someone rushing out with swords and guns, without saying a word, bursts of arrows rained down. Poor little Qi King has an unyielding heart, but in Under the rain of arrows, he looked so small and fragile. When the arrow pierced his chest, he still fell to the ground.
When Jiang Ligang stabilized the military camp and asked the soldiers not to resist before coming to the palace, what he saw was the scene of Xiao Qi Wang Yuan Yi being shot to death by random arrows. He also saw General Zhao Xin, who also died on the side. A pair of eyes were wide open, with a look of death.
Lucheng fell. In the next three days, the Huns soldiers did not seal their swords, but robbed and robbed the city. As long as it was something they liked, it would be used for them, but if someone stopped it, it would be a word. --kill!
In three days, Lucheng was looted. Not only did all the wealth in the city fall into the hands of the Huns, more than 60% of the women became playthings in the hands of the Huns. There were more than 10,000 people who resisted. People were killed in the streets.
As a result, corpses can be seen everywhere in the city, and everything is filled with the smell of blood.
The Huns were so unreasonable and killed innocent people indiscriminately, which fell into Jiang Li's eyes, making him very angry. For this reason, he went to find Wei Qian'er, told the various crimes of the Huns, and asked the princess to help the people in the city. Call the shots and restrain the illegal behavior of the Huns soldiers.
The reason why you were polite to Jiang Li before was because you needed him, but now that even Lucheng has been conquered, how can you care about his ideas anymore?
Wei Qian'er refused on the grounds that she could not influence the army, and also said that Jiang Li should restrain his subordinates and avoid any conflicts with the Huns, otherwise he would bear the consequences.
He did not expect such a result. Thinking that it was because he had harmed King Xiao Qi and the people of the whole city, Jiang Li regretted his previous actions. But now that he had done it, regret was useless. On the contrary, he He must also restrain his soldiers not to conflict with the Huns soldiers, otherwise, his life may not be saved.
