Fan Ziqi's heart shuddered when he saw several wives and concubines huddled together, and said coldly, "What are you afraid of?" But he opened the car curtain, walked out of the carriage, stood at the front of the car and looked over.
Under the setting sun, I saw a group of people blocking the way ahead.
The first person was wearing a coarse linen shirt, riding a tall horse, and wearing a bamboo hat on his head. His appearance could not be clearly seen. Behind him, to the left and right, were two women, both riding horses, wearing large cloaks, and both wearing bamboo hats.
At the rear were twenty or thirty horsemen, all wearing black cloaks and bamboo hats, and everyone was wearing a sword.
Fan Ziqi originally thought it was a group of horse thieves blocking the road, but upon closer inspection, it didn't look like it.
He felt a little uneasy, but he thought that he also had dozens of well-trained and brave cavalry, and Mo Cangxing, a master, might not be able to cope with the difficulties at hand. .??.
"Fan Ziqi, Bai Jingzhai, I have been waiting for you for a long time." The man in coarse linen clothes said loudly.
Fan Ziqi's expression changed slightly, but soon he saw a person walking up from behind, wearing brocade clothes, it was Bai Jingzhai.
Bai Jingzhai actually just returned to Xiling from the Wutuo Khanate.
Changes occurred in Wutuo and Brother Narusheng was assassinated. Bai Jingzhai knew that something was wrong and immediately set off to go to Wutuo in person, hoping to win the support of the Wutuo people.
He had stayed in the Wutuo Khanate for many years and got to know many Wutuo dignitaries. Li Tuo was able to gain the support of the Wutuo people and proclaimed himself emperor in Xiling. Bai Jingzhai played the most important role.
However, the tribes of Wutuo were fighting fiercely for the new Khan King, and they would not care about Li Tuo's life and death. Bai Jingzhai returned without success.
Returning to Xiling, as soon as I arrived at Fancheng, I learned that the Tang army had conquered Turtle City and captured Zhen County.
Bai Jingzhai was also preparing to go to Fengganfu City, but under Fan Ziqi's persuasion, he fled to Wutuo together.
The situation in Xiling can no longer be reversed. Going to Fengganfu City now is to seek death.
Fan Ziqi claimed that Li Tuo would definitely be able to escape and that they could meet in Wutuo. The most important thing was that if he wanted to make a comeback, he had to save his life first.
For Fan Ziqi, he took Bai Jingzhai to Wutuo with him because he knew that Bai Jingzhai was on good terms with the powerful people in Wutuo. With Bai Jingzhai by his side, he might be able to get good treatment from the Wutuo people.
Seeing Bai Jingzhai walking past his car and heading straight forward, Fan Ziqi was a little surprised and said hurriedly, "Prime Minister, don't go there!"
"Your Majesty, how can we avoid the arrival of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?" Bai Jingzhai said calmly, "Now it's time to settle the matter!"
When Fan Ziqi heard the words "Emperor of the Tang Dynasty", his whole body was shocked, and he looked forward suddenly, staring at the man in linen shirt.
Could that person be Qin Xiao?
Qin Xiao already smiled and said, "Sure enough, Mr. Bai
You have never forgotten me, and you can recognize me just by my voice. This is really an honor." He raised his hand, took it off his pocket, and revealed his face, it was none other than Qin Xiao, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Bai Jingzhai also smiled and said, "I have thought about how I will die countless times, but I never thought that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would personally come to take my life."
"When I left Xiling, I promised that I would come to you personally." Qin Xiao said with a smile, "I am the emperor, I must do what I say, and I must keep my word."
Fan Ziqi's pupils contracted.
He could never imagine that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was supposed to be thousands of miles away in Kyoto, could appear at Kunlun Pass?
"Mo Laowu, you piece of shit, you actually worked for the traitor." Suddenly, a woman behind Qin Xiao scolded, "Get over here yet." The woman raised her hand and took off her bamboo hat, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.
But it was none other than Mr. Mu Yeji, the sixth master of Jiangu.
Mo Cangxing was calm and sighed, "Little junior sister, I am also your senior brother after all. We haven't seen each other for many years, and when we meet, I make rude remarks. Do you still have any rules? When you see your senior brother, don't you get off your horse and salute?"
"You're right. How can you not be polite when you see your senior brother?" A rider urged his horse forward from among the knights behind Qin Xiao. He took off his pocket and looked at Mo Cangxing, "Lao Wu, do you understand the rules?"
Neither Bai Jingzhai nor Fan Ziqi recognized the person who suddenly came forward, but Mo Cangxing recognized him at a glance. He was Tian Hongying, the fourth master of Sword Valley and the master of Tianjian Pavilion.
Suddenly seeing Mu Yeji and Tian Hongying appear at the same time, Mo Cangxing was still surprised. He hesitated for a moment, then turned over and dismounted, took a few steps forward, and said with a cupped hand, "I have met the fourth senior brother!"
Bai Jingzhai frowned, and Fan Ziqi was even more stunned. He really didn't know where these people came from.
But suddenly I thought that Mo Cangxing seemed to be from the same family as those two people, which was not a bad thing.
Mo Cangxing had been working as an errand for the Fan family for many years, and Fan Ziqi trusted and cared for him, thinking that if Mo Cangxing could deal with it, he might not have a chance of survival.
"Lao Wu, what my junior sister said is right. I haven't seen you for so many years and I haven't heard from you." Tian Hongying sighed, "It turns out that you have been working hard for the Fan family. I don't understand why you would let yourself down?"
Qin Xiao was also greatly surprised at this time. He did not expect that Mr. Jiangu Wu had been working hard for the Fan family.
It is unbelievable to think about it. It is really unbelievable that the dignified disciples of Sword Valley have become lackeys of the Xiling family.
"If you can't explain today, we won't recognize you as a disciple of Sword Valley." Mu Yeji raised her eyebrows.
When Bai Jingzhai and Fan Ziqi heard this, they were both horrified and looked at Mo Cangxing.
Of course the two of them knew the name of Sword Valley.
Hearing the names of several people, could it be that this Mo Cangxing is actually the fifth master among the six skills of Sword Valley? .???.
Fan Ziqi opened his mouth, even more unbelievable.
Mr. Jian Guwu has actually served the Fan family for many years?
"Master was harmed by the Demon Queen. We can't kill her, so we should raise troops to fight against her." Mo Cangxing said, "With my ability, no matter who I defect to, I can get military power. After I defected to the Fan family and gained military power,
You can force Fan Ziqi to raise troops, then capture Xiling first, and then enter the pass. Even if you can't bring down the Demon Queen, you can still disturb her peace!"
Fan Ziqi was stunned.
Tian Hongying and Mu Yeji looked at each other, and Qin Xiao also looked stunned.
"That's it?" Mu Yeji said in surprise.
Mo Cangxing sighed, "What else can be done?"
"Then you know now that the Demon Queen has been executed." Tian Hongying sighed, "And the Holy One has helped us recover the master's remains. His old man was buried in Sword Valley a long time ago. We all keep filial piety for our master in Sword Valley.
Only you are missing!"
Mo Cangxing was surprised and said, "Master has returned to Sword Valley?"
"You didn't contact us either. It's your fault that you didn't know." Mu Yeji said angrily, "When the master was buried, we were all there, but you were missing. When you die, we will see how the master teaches you."
Mo Cangxing lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, then suddenly turned around, went over and got on his horse.
"Commander Momo, where are you going?" Fan Ziqi said in shock when he saw this.
Mo Cangxing didn't look back, he just said, "Go back to Sword Valley, and keep your filial piety for your master!" He shook the horse's reins, and without caring about anything else, the Pegasus left.
Fan Ziqi saw Mo Cangxing gradually disappearing away, but his heart sank to the bottom.
He suddenly jumped off the carriage, rushed forward in a few steps, knelt down facing Qin Xiao, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, I deserve to die. Back then, I also had my heart set on Li Tang and was unwilling to usurp the country by the demon queen, so that's why I started to fight now."
, I am loyal to Li Tang, please ask for guidance from the Holy One!"
Since he knew that Tian Hongying and Mu Yeji were disciples of Sword Valley, he naturally knew that the group of people behind them were all from Sword Valley.
Although he has dozens of cavalry under his command, facing a group of Sword Valley disciples, they are simply not enough to kill them.
"Your heart is for Li Tang?" Qin Xiao sighed, "If you rebelled against Xiahou, I don't blame you, but if you killed General Black Feather and many night crows, you deserve to die. You claimed that your heart was for Li Tang, but I
Three years after the restoration of Li Tang, why don't you come to Beijing and surrender?" Shake Yao
He turned his head and said, "Fan Ziqi, you are considered a person after all. Since you have done something, you should bear the consequences. Why should you be so despised?"
Bai Jingzhai put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Yes, you dare to do something. Fan Ziqi, at this point, do you think he can spare us? Weeping and begging for mercy, it is better to die like a man."
Fan Ziqi turned his head and said angrily, "If you hadn't bewitched me back then, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation. Do you want to die like a man? Then you die!" But suddenly he saw that Bai Jingzhai was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and he said in shock, "You
What’s wrong with you?"
Bai Jingzhai looked at Qin Xiao and said calmly, "I did want to revive Li Tang at the beginning, but my king is not you!" Then a look of pain appeared on his face, he raised his hand to cover his mouth, and his body swayed.
, sighing softly, "The winner is a prince and the loser is a bandit. There is no reason to fight for the world!" He stumbled forward and fell to the ground. His body twitched twice and then stopped moving.
Fan Ziqi stared blankly at Bai Jingzhai's corpse, seeming to realize something. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He turned back to Qin Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, I deserve death for my crime. I only ask that Your Majesty forgive my family."
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, and Du Hongye, who had been wearing a bamboo hat, finally said, "Master said that the benevolent are invincible. Fan Ziqi's death is not a pity, and there is no need to kill women and children."
"You have spoken, then let them out of the customs." Qin Xiaowei nodded and said to Fan Ziqi, "The wealth and silk of the Tang Dynasty will stay in the Tang Dynasty. Your family members can leave the customs to go to Wutuo and never return to the Tang Dynasty."
Fan Ziqi kowtowed to Qin Xiao, then stood up, walked to the back and gave instructions to the two cavalrymen. The two cavalrymen nodded and passed the order back, but the others were all noisy. Soon, several cavalrymen were seen in their pockets.
He turned his horse's head and urged his horse to go east. Seeing this, the others also turned back, and in the end only four or five cavalry were left.
Qin Xiao knew that the cavalry must have learned that the money and silk could not be transported out of the customs, but they continued to escort Fan Ziqi's family members out of the customs, leaving their hometown without being paid, so naturally they were not happy.
The few remaining cavalrymen should be considered loyal.
When he saw the cavalry escorting his family members to Kunlun Pass, Fan Ziqi saluted Qin Xiao again and said gratefully, "Your Majesty is merciful, I am deeply grateful." But he took a dagger from his body and held it in his hand.
, looked up to the horizon, the sunset had already set, he just shook his head, suddenly turned the dagger upside down, but without hesitation stabbed his own throat.
Blood spattered, and Fan Ziqi swayed, but fell backwards, twitched a few times, and stopped moving.
According to historical records, in the third year of Xingping, the emperor appointed Yuwen Chengchao as the commander and sent 70,000 troops out of Yongzhou. He was like a broken bamboo. In two months, he conquered three counties and restored Xiling. The leader of the thieves, Li Tuo, Bai Jingzhai, Fan Ziqi, etc. were all destroyed, and the general
Kill the traitor general Yuan Shangyu personally, and the world will celebrate!
