"Who is the King of Xu Shu?" After entering the military tent, Taishu Yi stabilized his body and bowed his head, and asked hurriedly.
"I am." Xu Mu stood up and looked at the person in front of him hesitantly.
"Your surname is Taishu. So, who are you, Taishu Wang from Hebei?"
"It's my father." Tai Shuyi breathed out, not hiding anything.
"The son of an old thief must be a spy!" As soon as Tai Shuyi's voice fell, Zhao Di was already furious and hurriedly called for the people to capture him.
Taishu Yi was neither humble nor arrogant, "If you want to kill me, please give the King of Shu time for a stick of incense. After that, whether you want to kill me or behead me, my Taishu Yi will do as you please."
"Lobbyist?"
"He is considered a lobbyist, but he is not from the Queen Mother of Cangzhou."
"Where?" Zuo Shiren frowned.
"I came here for the people of Cangzhou." Tai Shuyi closed his eyes and knelt down to worship. "For a long time, I, Tai Shuyi, have been a poor scholar in Yanzhou. The disaster caused by the war was not my original intention."
"But in Cangzhou, I am the Queen Mother's black-robed messenger and a battle aide. Therefore, I know what will happen next. The south gate is wide open, not to ask for surrender. When...the Allied troops enter the city, the city will be on fire.
The fire is so intense that not only the soldiers, but also the 70,000 households in the city will be reduced to charcoal."
"You are lying--"
"What he said is true." Xu Mu raised his hand and interrupted Zhao Di's angry shouting. He used a wooden kite to check and found that Tai Shuyi was not lying. The Demon Queen was indeed preparing a plan to burn the city.
"King Shu, I really can't bear the people in the city to die fighting."
"Are you from the Central Plains?"
"No..." Tai Shuyi gritted his teeth, his face full of sadness. It seemed that when he was in Yanzhou, as the captain of the local brave, he led the neighbors to resist the Rouran people, which became a great joke.
"What needs to be said has been said. Uncle Tai is willing to die. I also ask the King of Shu to consider it. Don't enter the city easily, for fear of raging fire and causing disaster to the people."
"If I don't kill you, where are you going?" Xu Mu thought for a while and asked.
"Leave Cangzhou, stay anonymous, and if you make money, start teaching children in a private school."
"How about you stay in my tent?"
Tai Shuyi shook his head and said, "Forgive me, King Shu, but I don't like fighting."
"If there is peace in the world, there will be no wars to fight."
Tai Shuyi held his hands and bowed again, "If the King of Shu does not kill me, I have decided to leave. Please forgive me."
Xu Mu sighed.
He understood that Tai Shuyi's coming this time was not the intention of the Demon Queen. However, he had already spied on the Fire City plan.
"Six heroes, give me a good horse, plenty of water bags and dry food, and give me a hundred taels of silver as a gift. Send Mr. Taishu away."
"Brother Xu, this is not good. After all, he is the son of an old thief——"
"Leader Zuo, I, Xu Mu, would like to guarantee that if Tai Shuyi is the Demon Queen's trick, no matter what the consequences are, I, Xi Shu, will bear all the consequences."
Seeing Xu Mu say this, Zuo Shiren hesitated and nodded. Zuo Shiren had no objection, and the rest of Zhao Di and others had no choice but to give up.
Tai Shuyi, who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Xu Mu took two steps forward and slowly helped Tai Shuyi up.
"When I was in the mountains and forests, I met hundreds of refugees, and my husband must have been among them."
"Exactly, I was the Queen Mother's messenger at that time, and I wanted to spy on the movements of the King of Shu..."
"After my husband left, I asked many refugees, and they all said that my husband was protecting them all the way. Without him, the defeat of the army in Cangzhou would have been a disaster for them."
"Although each one has his own master, I, sir, have great righteousness. If there are any difficulties in the future, please come to Xishu. I, Xu Mu, will sweep the bed and wait for you."
"I remember...Thank you so much, King Shu. But my great uncle, Yi, once served as the Queen Mother's staff and did many evil things. So he cut off three of his fingers to settle the grudge."
"gentlemen--"
Before Xu Mu could stop him, Tai Shuyi had already hit the ground with three fingers, one finger was broken and the other two were twisted.
"Farewell, farewell, please King Shu remember that the fire plan in the city may affect 70,000 households." Tai Shuyi looked pale, propped himself up, bowed again, and then turned around and left.
"Six heroes, go see me off." Xu Mu sounded regretful.
In the Chinese military tent, the atmosphere became a little tense for a while because of the intelligence brought by Tai Shuyi's appearance.
"Brother Xu, is the information true?"
"it is true."
Now, Xu Mu simply told the spying information.
"This Demon Queen is so vicious! She is really hateful!" Zuo Shiren raised his hand angrily and slapped it heavily on the table.
"They also tied together the 70,000 people in the city to die for the country!"
Xu Mu also fell into deep thought.
In fact, he didn't need Tai Shuyi to know the evil plan of the Demon Queen. Putting aside Tai Shuyi's war-weary factor, maybe... Tai Shuyi's war-weary actions were also part of the Demon Queen's plan?
After all, the Demon Queen didn’t know about Mu Yuan’s affairs. That’s why she plotted against Tai Shuyi. Will she bring him the information about the Fire City plot?
When she announces herself to her family, what is the demon queen going to do?
…
In Cangzhou, under the flags whistling in the wind.
"Queen Mother, Tai Shuyi has left the city."
"I understand." Demon Empress Su's face was not moved at all, "I know my son Mo Ruo. His father wrote in a letter that Tai Shuyi was born in Yanzhou since he was a child. He is too kind-hearted. Although he is full of strategies, he may one day
, will show the kindness of women."
"He guessed it right, and so did I."
Demon Queen Su sighed.
"I heard that after Tai Shuyi went to the enemy camp, he failed to surrender and left Cangzhou alone... Do you want to send someone to chase him?"
"Let him go. After all, he is also the son of a teacher."
"Pay close attention to the enemy's movements outside the city. No matter what the situation is, report it immediately."
…
At the Allied camp, two miles away.
Yin Hu walked for two miles before he cupped his hands and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Brother Yin, wait a moment." Tai Shuyi, who was riding on the horse, hesitated and spoke.
"The King of Shu is so righteous that my great-uncle will never forget it... Regarding the Queen Mother, I heard something, please tell Brother Yin to the King of Shu."
"Mr. Taishu, please speak."
"My father, Uncle Wang, accidentally said that the Queen Mother is a person who mixes lies with truth. But after saying this, my father realized that he had made a mistake and stopped talking."
"A person who confuses the real with the fake?"
Tai Shuyi nodded, "In this troubled world, there are too many intrigues and intrigues. Although I have only been an official for a short time, I am already very tired of it."
"Where are you going, Mr. Taishu?"
"Visit the inner city and go to the Hebei area. If my father dies, he will collect his body. After observing mourning for three years, he will open a private school, marry a girl, and live in peace and stability."
"Brother Yin, I'm leaving."
"Mr. Taishu, we have a long way to go. We are destined to meet again."
Under the sun, Tai Shuyi raised his head with a calm smile, "If the world is peaceful one day, I will come uninvited to visit Brother Yin and King Shu."
