Meier felt sad in her heart and walked directly to the coffin of her eldest grandson Yuanxin.
Qin Xiao lowered his head and never dared to look into She Yue's eyes.
She Yue was so shrewd that she naturally noticed that something was wrong with Qin Xiao, but she only thought it was because Qin Xiao was acting cautiously in front of everyone and asked softly: "General Qin Qin, who is Li Chengqing?"
"His meridians are all gone and he only has one breath." Qin Xiao said: "Please give me the princess' instructions on how to deal with it."
She Yue frowned, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is he no longer a threat?"
"His despicable behavior has been made known to everyone, and his reputation has been ruined." Qin Xiao said: "He really can no longer make any waves."
She Yue sighed softly: "Today we are going to offer sacrifices to our father. Li Chengqing and his father are flesh and blood brothers. If he were to be killed in front of his father's spiritual throne, his father would be sad if he knew about it. Anyway, he has been deposed. Let's let him go first."
Lock him up and deal with him later."
Qin Xiao cupped his hands and said, "Princess is wise."
He was so polite, but it seemed like there was a distance between the two of them.
At this moment, a faint sound of thunder was heard from the horizon.
She Yue looked up to the horizon and murmured: "It seems like it's going to rain."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "After the heavy rain, it looks brand new."
Suddenly, he saw two commanders, Hu Haibiao and Dong Cheng, walking side by side. When they got to De Sheyue, they knelt down together and said in unison: "I will plead guilty to the princess and beg her to punish you!"
In the previous episode, Li Chengqing suddenly appeared and seized She Yue's military power with thunderous means, and even put She Yue and Changsun Meier under house arrest.
Hu Haibiao and Dong Cheng were both present at the time of such drastic changes, but they did not firmly follow She Yue.
Although the situation dictates
Forced, but the behavior of the two people cannot be said to be loyal.
Now Li Chengqing had been completely defeated. She Yue, with the help of Qin Xiao, turned defeat into victory. Naturally, the power of Xuzhou returned to She Yue's hands. The two people immediately came to apologize, hoping that She Yue could forgive.
Musk Moon frowned slightly.
In fact, She Yue certainly felt uncomfortable with the reaction of the two people that day, but she also knew that the next battle with the Kyoto army would be inevitable, and that would really require the efforts of these two people and their subordinates. Of course, these people could not be held accountable at this time.
.
"General Qin, what do you think?" She Yue glanced at Qin Xiao.
She Yue actually knew very well that with Qin Xiao's wisdom, it was impossible not to know how to deal with this matter.
I didn't pardon him right away. That was to maintain his power and let Qin Xiao intercede, and also to make these two people owe Qin Xiao a favor.
Since Qin Xiao came to Xuzhou, She Yue must have expected Qin Xiao to command the decisive battle with Tantai Xuanye, making the two generals owe Qin Xiao's favor, and they would naturally obey Qin Xiao's orders from then on.
Sure enough, Qin Xiao had already handed over his hand and said: "Princess, I also know what happened before. The two commanders were coerced by Li Chengqing, and their families were in Li Chengqing's hands. Moreover, Li Chengqing was using the banner of Li Tang, so we really cannot blame them all.
Commander." After a pause, he continued: "After the two commanders led their troops to Xuzhou, they did not lead their troops back to be loyal to Kyoto. They did not even consider their families and resolutely joined the princess. This shows that they have great respect for Li Tang.
of loyalty.”
She Yue said: "I know that they are loyal ministers of Li Tang."
"And today's performance proves that they are not only Li Tang's
Loyal ministers are also loyal ministers of the princess." Qin Xiao said sternly: "From the very beginning today, the two commanders led their soldiers to firmly support the princess." Looking around, he looked at She Yue and said: "Everywhere the princess can see, everything is there.
This can be proven.”
Thousands of soldiers from Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Jiangnan formed a semi-arc shape to surround the Xuzhou army. Everything was just as Qin Xiao said. Hu Haibiao and Dong Cheng made their position clear with their actions.
She Yue nodded and said: "Dong Cheng, Hu Haibiao, and General Qin have all said so. I will let bygones be bygones for what happened before."
The two of them looked at each other and said happily: "I will kill the enemy bravely and atone for my sins."
"It's going to rain heavily." She Yue said, "Pass this order from me, and the soldiers of each battalion will return to camp immediately."
Hu Haibiao said hurriedly: "Princess, what should we do with Xuzhou Camp?"
"I'll handle it." Qin Xiao said: "You each lead your troops and retreat." He looked up at the cloudy sky, then looked at the two grand masters who were still playing chess not far away, and softly ordered: "Hu
Commander, heavy rain is coming, please leave some people and let them set up three tents on the spot. We can't let the two great masters get wet in the rain, right?"
Both Hu Haibiao and Dong Cheng were ordered to retreat.
Seeing that the dust had settled, the dozens of Xuzhou officials on the scene were already whispering among themselves.
Suddenly someone heard someone say loudly: "Everyone, Li Chengqing's moral character is corrupt. He once made trouble for the position of the crown prince. Now he is still evil and uses the banner of Li Tang to deceive people's hearts. His purpose is to become the emperor himself. Fortunately, General Qin
He stepped forward and exposed Li Chengqing's conspiracy. Now that Her Royal Highness is here, why don't you go and pay homage?
?" But he was the first to walk towards Musk Moon.
When the officials saw that the speaker was Luo Xiang, who joined the military, although Luo Xiang's rank was not the highest among the officials, his words made the officials who were at a loss what to do immediately react and did not hesitate.
A group of people followed Luo Xiang.
Luo Xiang was still seven or eight steps away from She Yue. He stopped, knelt down on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Luo Xiang, failed to protect the princess. He deserves death. I beg the princess to punish me!"
Everyone else also knelt down and said in unison: "Please punish me princess!"
The officials were at a loss what to do, but She Yue could see clearly and knew that for Xuzhou to function, these officials still need to perform their duties.
She raised her swan-like neck slightly and spoke slowly: "I know that you were just deceived by Ye Chaoxuan and Li Chengqing, so I won't blame you. Now that the culprit has been punished, you and the others are not guilty. You all go back to your office and perform your duties.
Do your job well, if you are negligent, I will punish you."
"I would like to thank the princess for your forgiveness!"
After the officials kowtowed, they were unwilling to stay any longer in the place where the dispute was taking place. Seeing that the officers and soldiers of each battalion had already begun to withdraw, they all left one after another and returned to the Yamen.
The soldiers of each battalion were well-trained. After the order was sent, the soldiers of Jiangnan Army, Yanzhou Battalion and Yuzhou Battalion retreated in an orderly manner. Another sergeant found tarpaulins and temporarily set up three tents under the altar.
One is specially built for the two great masters.
The Master and the Butcher seemed to have no sense of what was going on around them.
Moreover, the tent was specially set up with its door curtains opened to let in the light, so as not to make it dark inside, which would affect the chess game.
The camps were withdrawn, and Qin Xiao also went there in person
He went to the Sixiang Gate to give instructions to the old hero Kong and others. The old hero Kong led the people to say goodbye to Qin Xiao, and had the coffin of the eldest grandson Yuanxin lifted up and left the scene.
Mei'er and She Yue agreed to go with the old hero Kong and his group, as they were going to accompany her brother for two days.
Li Chengqing was already a living dead. Hu Haibiao sent people to find a stretcher to lift him up and temporarily imprisoned him.
There was another faint thunder in the sky, and the heavy rain had not yet arrived, but the wind had picked up.
When Qiao Ji and the sergeants of the Xuzhou Battalion under his command saw that the soldiers of each battalion quickly withdrew, they looked surprised and stood there, not knowing what to do for a while.
Seeing Qin Xiao walking straight over alone, Qiao Ji couldn't help but tighten his grip on the handle of the knife, but immediately let go. However, when Qin Xiao was only three steps away from him, he tightened his grip on the knife again.
The soldiers of Xuzhou Camp saw Qin Xiao's skills with their own eyes.
They couldn't see how powerful the two great masters were, but Qin Xiao's ghostly movement skills were clearly visible to everyone. Looking at Qin Xiao's eyes at this time, even if the other party came alone, there was still a look in the eyes of all the soldiers.
Looking frightened.
"I killed Ye Chaoxuan, do you want to avenge him?" Qin Xiao stared at Qiao Ji with eyes like blades, "If you want to avenge him, I am in front of you now, you can take action!"
Who dares to take action?
Even King Qing died in the hands of Qin Xiao. Everyone knows that if they rush forward now, whoever comes forward first will die first.
"What, don't want revenge?" Qin Xiao smiled faintly and said: "Commander Qiao, you can also lead your soldiers to fight hard. Ye Chaoxuan said that he was kind to the people of Xuzhou, and everyone was grateful to him. If you lead
It is not impossible for the soldiers and horses to regain control of Xuzhou and kill all of us. Do you want to give it a try?"
The corners of Qiao Ji's eyes twitched.
Although there were only a few hundred Xuzhou sergeants at the sacrifice site, there were thousands of people in Xuzhou City in total, and most of them were currently deployed to garrison the city walls.
However, Qiao Ji did not forget that compared to the Xuzhou Battalion, the other units combined had more troops. If the Xuzhou Battalion really caused chaos in the city, it would be quickly put down.
As for the people in the city supporting the Xuzhou Army, that is naturally just a joke.
Everyone knows that Princess Sheyue is the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Now that Ye Chaoxuan is dead and Li Chengqing has been deposed, it is simply fanciful for a Xuzhou battalion commander to lead troops who are enemies of the Princess of the Tang Dynasty and want the support of the people of Xuzhou.
When Qin Xiao saw that Qiao Ji was silent, he finally said: "If it doesn't work, you can lead your troops to defect to Tantai Xuanye, and I will never stop you. As long as you are willing, I can order the city gate to be opened. Who wants to go with you?
Just take them out of the city. What do you think?"
The muscles on Qiao Ji's face twitched.
"If you are still loyal to Li Tang in your heart and don't want to associate with the rebels, then there is only the last way. Take your men, be loyal to the princess, and become a great contributor to the revival of Li Tang!" Qin Xiao said slowly: "You are Ye Chaoxuan.
Under his command, each is his master and obeys his orders. There is nothing to blame. If you swear allegiance to the princess, I believe you will not let the princess down. I can also guarantee that the princess will not let you down. All the previous
Let the past be forgotten, you will still be the pillar that assists the princess in reviving Li Tang!"
Qiao Ji lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and finally said: "General Qin, princess, take it as a matter of course.
Not to blame?"
"Since I said it, I can guarantee it." Qin Xiao said: "Tantai Xuanye is about to attack. I am willing to fight against the powerful enemy together with you, and we are brothers!"
Qiao Ji loosened his grip on the handle of the knife and said nothing. Under the gaze of everyone, they saw Qiao Ji walking towards She Yue. He stopped a few steps away, took off his sword, and then knelt down in front of She Yue.
He placed the knife in his hand on the ground and kowtowed in submission.
