Chapter 22 Chapter 21

But in the haze of being unnoticed, Xuanjo showed a smile on his face. His purpose has been achieved. He can't die.His country cannot die.Therefore, this person who is as gentle as the moon must be drawn into this war, not just wait and see. Although he didn't know Yang Yizhi very well, Xuanzu believed that if there was one person in this world who fought against Zhuo Wangsun, it must be this man in white. As the king of a country, he can easily see this.He believed that his kingdom would not fall in this war. He will definitely have the last laugh. Hirai Hideyoshi held a cup of tea.

The light dew in the morning wets the window lattice of the castle tower, or mist, or rain, faintly smeared on the light blue window paper, making people feel in a blurred dream. Only tea is warm.Or, there is that water-red woman. "Zhuo Wangsun ordered the King of Korea to be sent to Lingshan City." He said slowly, watching Acacia's reaction from the reflection of the tea.The tea was swaying slowly in the cup, and the reflection of lovesickness streaked across the surface of the water. "He has done this more than once. I am very puzzled, does he really want to send the King of Korea to us? Because Lingshan City has no danger, as long as I send out an army, I can break the city and capture the king in an instant."

Xiangsi's hand trembled, and the water pouring out of the pot trembled. At the same time, they thought of the man who looked like the sun, and felt a deep confusion at the same time. What exactly does Zhuo Wangsun want to do? Lingshan City is broken, and King Koryo is captured, so the Japanese side can almost control the whole situation.In this era of monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, if the king is captured, it means the defeat of the country. Ping Hideyoshi slowly unfolded the pale yellow scroll in his hand, which was the complete map of Goryeo.His slender fingers moved over it, and tapped out a few dots lightly.

That would be the hand of death strangling Lingshan City.Even Acacia can tell that as long as these important areas are occupied, Lingshan City will be a dead city. She has to do something. Acacia bit her lip lightly.What can she do? The purpose of her coming here was to assassinate Hirao Hideyoshi, but after so many days, she still couldn't tell who was the real Hirao Hideyoshi.Incarnation of hundreds of billions, the highest state of ninjutsu that is indestructible and invincible -- Onizo, makes Hirao Hideyoshi unpredictable and unfathomable, and no one can see through it. Perhaps, she can do more, for example, pass on the information she has obtained and let the people of Korea or Ming Dynasty know.

But how? There are very few people who can go up to the seventh floor of the castle tower.In other words, she didn't see anyone else except Hirai Hideyoshi.She has very few chances of leaving the cabinet, and she must have been strictly monitored by Hirai Hideyoshi. If she escapes, Hirao Hideyoshi will definitely change all strategies immediately, and these secrets will become meaningless. How To?To be able to give effective information?Acacia frowned slightly. Yang Yizhi looked at the map. His hand marked a few points around Lingshan City. These points are the Achilles heel of Lingshan City.If these points are occupied by the enemy, Lingshan City will be a dead city.Then, the core of the war to capture and defend Lingshan City lies in these points.What he has to do is to ensure the safety of these points.

He can do it. He carefully studied the map, each strategy was formed in his mind, and was constantly rejected, perfected, perfected, rejected.Finally, a smile appeared in his eyes. No matter how many enemies come, he is sure to win a victory. The princess looked at him quietly, watching the smile on his face.She laughed too. She believes that this man must be a dragon and phoenix among men, as long as he is given a sword, he can show the most brilliant light. Looking at Yang Yizhi, she couldn't help asking a question that she had thought about for a long time: "Why don't you oppose Zhuo Wangsun?"

Countless people wanted to ask this question, but they didn't. In today's world, in Koryo, if there is one person who can stand against Zhuo Wangsun, it must be Yang Yizhi.If there is a king who cannot tolerate tyranny, it must be Yang Yizhi.But Zhuo Wangsun acted so perversely, Yang Yizhi never had any resistance. Is he afraid of Zhuo Wangsun? impossible.They have long been enemies. Is he helping the evildoers? Less likely.Yang Yizhi is as clear as the moon, spotless.His kindness and compassion have long been known to the world. So, why? Yang Yizhi pondered.He has asked himself this question many times.

"Because I trust him." The princess looked at him in surprise: "Do you believe him?" Even if Zhuo Wangsun has done so many unforgivable bad things, Yang Yizhi still believes in him?Obviously, everyone in the world will be surprised by this answer. Yang Yizhi didn't answer.All kinds of past events flashed before his eyes like floating phantoms.Over the past few years, he and his acquaintance, drinking together, sword testing, and breaking up are all in front of his eyes. Are he and him friends? "Yes, I believe him." He answered firmly. But with a hint of bitterness.

Then, he turned around and walked towards the faint smoke and rain in Lingshan. The princess looked at him. His white clothes looked so eye-catching in the green rain. Dazzling and melancholy.Just like the song "Yulunpao" he played for her under the peach blossom tree back then. The voiceless sound is high and far, and the tone moves with the flowers.He used Fengyue as the piano and peach blossoms as the strings to play a song of nature. Dance to the end of the romantic only lingering fragrance. He was originally a good son in troubled times, but he was helpless in ups and downs.

All of a sudden, there was a tinge of loneliness in her heart of the emperor's aristocrat. The second day after Yang Yizhi left, the princess waited patiently. For this strategy to succeed, the key is not to attract Zhuo Wangsun's attention.If he finds out about their arrangement, as long as he swings Shang Fang's sword in front of Yang Jisheng, Yang Yizhi will come back obediently, and this plan will immediately fall apart. Therefore, don't let Zhuo Wangsun know. So, she pretended to be impatient, and kept complaining to the people around her that the weather in Pyongyang was bad, the place was too small, and there was nothing to do.Then she also mentioned that when she was in the capital, she often went out to Xuanwumen to hunt

In this way, tomorrow, she can order her women's army to get ready and go to the suburbs of Pyongyang to relax.She is a princess, and no one will be surprised if she wants to go hunting.Then, she can rush to Baishan.The 50,000 soldiers stationed there can only be mobilized by her holding the Tiger Talisman.Then, she could fight side by side with Yang Yizhi. This is the most critical moment for him to make great achievements. She must be by his side and watch him defeat the Japanese army with her own eyes. Then she came back quietly and continued to complain that the deer, musk deer, rabbits, and sheep were all scared away by this nasty war.She hit nothing.So what if Zhuo Wangsun doubted it?Anyway, their plot is over. Such an arrangement can be called perfect. The princess smiled secretly. So, she frowned and sighed in the palace, and complained to Qin Yan, who came to accompany her, how boring the river view of the Datong River was, how crowded the city was, and how boring a bunch of big men were.She frowned, her face was depressed, but she was secretly laughing.Qin Yan relieved her unconsciously, making her feel that her plan was perfect. At this time, the eunuch from the Little Yellow Gate came in and said, "The envoy from the Kingdom of the Rising Sun is asking to see you." The princess frowned and said, "The messenger of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun? Why do I want to see you?" After repelling the little yellow gate, the princess continued to complain to Qin Yan.The Kingdom of the Rising Sun still knows etiquette. Hearing that the princess is coming, he came to pay his respects.But what a noble person Her Royal Highness is, how could she go to meet the envoys of such a small country. She didn't find anything suspicious about it. The next day, the princess ordered the lady army to prepare chariots and horses and go hunting outside the city. The Detachment of Women went down to prepare, but came back angrily: "Princess Qi, Zhuo Wangsun ordered that the princess is not allowed to leave the city." The princess suddenly stood up, her brows bristling: "No? What kind of thing is he?" Where did the people around make noise?But he heard a voice from outside the hall, and replied indifferently: "I am the commander in chief of this war, the master of Pyongyang City." The princess turned her head in surprise, and saw Zhuo Wangsun standing in the middle of the courtyard with his hands behind his back.He waved his hand slightly, and several young eunuchs came in holding several large trays. On the tray are the Fengguan Xiapei and the bright red Qiankun Sheji jacket. This is only used when the princess is out of crops. The princess was startled, and said: "Zhuo Wangsun, what do you mean?" Zhuo Wangsun said indifferently: "What is the purpose of the princess coming to Korea from Zhongyuan?" The princess proudly said: "I came here to supervise the army, to make meritorious deeds, and to achieve extraordinary feats that will never be seen in the world." Zhuo Wangsun smiled faintly, his smile was tolerant, but it made the princess feel very uncomfortable.That is the tolerance of adults when they look at children and watch them talk about childish and unrealistic ideals. The princess was annoyed: "What are you laughing at?" Zhuo Wangsun: "But I thought that the princess came here to make peace." The princess's complexion changed drastically, and she said sharply: "Presumptuous! I am the emperor's nobleman, the only princess of the emperor today, how can I go to make a marriage? A marriage, that is..." But she stopped suddenly. She originally wanted to say, marriage, isn't it the Han Dynasty who pretended to be a princess with a folk girl from the draft to deceive a barbarian who has never seen the world?She is the real founding emperor!What's more, the emperor loves her so much, how could he take her for a kiss! But she suddenly remembered, a year ago, wasn't she the one who, under the arrangement of King Wuyue, was sent to Mongolia to be married to I Dahan? To her, this incident was an unspeakable shame. She spent a whole year to heal her injuries, but she couldn't recover.It wasn't until the Battle of the East China Sea, where she fought side by side with Yang Yizhi and established her achievements, that she gradually forgot about it.During this period, she must have kept convincing herself that it was just King Wuyue's treacherous scheme to deceive her father, and it was not her father's original intention.And this kind of thing will never happen again. But now, these two words are mentioned again. Every word Zhuo Wangsun said pierced her heart like an awl. She looked at Zhuo Wangsun coldly, and said sharply: "I will pardon you this time, and next time I dare to speak nonsense and punish you!" Zhuo Wangsun didn't speak, but just looked at her quietly.The princess met his gaze without fear.Zhuo Wangsun's gaze did not change, but the princess's heart suddenly hesitated. Could it be... She didn't dare to think about it any longer, she looked back at Zhuo Wangsun with serious eyes, as if this would make her more confident. Zhuo Wangsun: "Shen Weijing." Shen Weijing hurried in, fell down and saluted. Zhuo Wangsun: "What did the emperor say when I ordered you to send the peace agreement to the capital?" Shen Weijing bowed down and did not dare to raise his head, and said in a low voice: "The emperor said that all matters of war must be played by Zhuo Shuai. Zhuo Shuai's decision is the court's decision." Zhuo Wangsun: "Submit the list of collegiality." Shen Weijing stepped forward tremblingly, put the letter in his hand on the case in front of the princess, and opened it. Next to the big characters circled by the vermilion pen, there is the seal of the current emperor's jade seal impressively. "Welcome Emperor and Princess Ming as the Empress of the Land of the Rising Sun." The princess was startled, as if she couldn't believe her eyes.She eagerly grabbed the watch in front of her eyes, the lines were clear and there was nothing suspicious about it.The princess also naturally recognized the seal of the jade seal, and it was absolutely impossible to fake it. She sat down slowly, her mind was at a loss.She tried hard to think about something, but felt that her mind was empty and she couldn't think of anything. It turned out that her father sent her to Korea just for the peace treaty. Her country, her court, and even her father, all deceived her again. They sent her to Korea to force her to marry someone she didn't know or like in exchange for peace after a war. It's like a deal. This is the second time that she has traded her life's happiness for peace.The second betrayal. The princess's body began to tremble, and when her eyes were raised again, there were tears. "You faked it, didn't you?" Zhuo Wangsun smiled mockingly and did not answer. The princess's heart sank a little bit. In fact, when she asked this sentence, she knew it couldn't be like this. She hated Zhuo Wangsun.Even though she knew she couldn't blame her for it.It has nothing to do with her father abandoning her and the country abandoning her. But she still hated him. Without him, maybe she didn't have to accept such a result at all. She sternly said: "I want to go back! I want to see my father! Even if we get married, I want him to tell me himself!" Zhuo Wangsun did not answer, but only slowly ordered: "Get ready for the princess. The messenger from the Kingdom of the Rising Sun is still waiting for the princess to summon you." At that time, the princess suddenly understood why the envoy from the Kingdom of the Rising Sun wanted to see her. "No, I don't dress up!" She suddenly stepped forward and looked up into his gaze, "If you insist that I summon the envoys from the Kingdom of the Rising Sun, I will carry the cannon to meet them." Zhuo Wangsun was silent for a moment, then smiled faintly: "You are tired." He turned around and left the palace: "Princess take a good rest. Tomorrow morning, there will be a luanjia to welcome the princess, and set off for the kingdom of the rising sun." Gently close the palace door. The main hall became pitch black, and it seemed that even the light was shut out. The princess stood blankly in the middle of the hall, so dazed. She didn't know what to do, or what to believe. The man in white is just a dream amidst the fireworks, becoming so far away. She is about to put on a bright red hijab, marry beyond the ocean, and marry the emperor who has never met. All this is far from her dream.She was supposed to command thousands of troops, assist her husband in making immortal achievements, and be famous in the annals of history together with him.This is like the life that an emperor and aristocrat should have.Unlike now, in order to cover up the incompetence of the country and the incompetence of the army, it is like a transaction or a gift, marrying to a remote and wild place. It shouldn't be like this. She bit her lip lightly. The sound of pattering rain came.It began to rain again outside the temple, and the sky of this country seemed to mourn the suffering of all beings.It has rained so much here since the war started. The princess woke up with a start. There should be no more waiting, she has run out of time. Their plan is that Yang Yizhi will go out of the city first to arrange everything, and then the princess will leave the city quietly. The two will meet up and go to Baishan together. If she is locked in the palace and cannot leave the city, then only Yang Yi will be left to deal with this war. Her hand raised involuntarily, tightly holding a delicate half-moon-shaped gold device tied on her chest. This is exactly the tiger charm that can mobilize the three armies. In order to stay by his side, she did not give the Tiger Talisman to Yang Yizhi.Without the Tiger Talisman, Baishan's army would not be mobilized. The princess knew Yang Yizhi's character very well, even without this army, Yang Yizhi would never refuse to save him.He will definitely rush to Lingshan alone, and live and die with this city. That will only have one result, that both jade and stone will be destroyed. She must not be locked into a marriage sedan chair and sent to the Land of the Rising Sun, but must rush to Baishan to rescue Yang Yizhi! This man cannot live without her.She, too, cannot live without him. But what to do now? Zhuo Wangsun would never let her out of the city.The marriage is a foregone conclusion. Although she doesn't want to admit it, once such a major national event is decided, it cannot be changed. To change, there must be a major change. She opened the gate of the palace, and a huge ritual curtain stood on the square of Pyongyang City. The lights spread from it to the surroundings, dyeing the willow trees on the banks of the Datong River red.On the left and right of the ceremony curtain, there are two tents that have just been set up.It is also full of lights.This is the etiquette of marriage.In one tent lived the envoys who welcomed the relatives, and in the other tent lived the ministers who sent them off. Tomorrow morning, she will leave this rainy city as a bargaining chip for peace. For this reason, the city is immersed in a convivial atmosphere. The celebration is due to her, but it does not belong to her. The dowry gifts from the Land of the Rising Sun filled the riverside, and they cheered and drank with the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, waiting to welcome their queen. That is the supreme respect, and it is also due to her, but it does not belong to her. All she wanted was a beam of moonlight. But Zhuo Wangsun's will is like a steel shackle, ruling the city.In this city, no one dared to defy him.She can't, and neither can Yang Yizhi. What's ridiculous is that the reason why Yang Yizhi didn't disobey him was because he believed him. "You trust him?" "Yes, I believe him." The princess bit her lip, and suddenly, a smile burst from her face. This is a last resort, if she is not careful, she will lose her reputation and even start a war. But it must be done so that she can stay here and save Yang Yizhi. What about Yang Yizhi?When he knew that he had used such a trick, would he blame her and despise her?Does he still trust her? Slowly, the princess sighed. Do you trust him? I hope so.
