Regardless of national interests, the Han Dynasty successfully handed over Maling Mountain to seek marriage. Both the emperors and ministers of the Eastern Qi Dynasty and the Chu Kingdom's envoys were greatly surprised.
The king of Dong Qi seemed to be a little unconvinced and asked: "Is what you said true? Malingshan... was really given to me?"
Beitangfeng had lost face in the Prime Minister's Mansion last night and had been holding his breath. When he saw the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, he suddenly felt refreshed. He stepped forward and said, "My father ordered me to bring the certificate of credence and the map." They all were brought over. In the letter of credence, the land to be handed over was clearly stated, and it was also marked on the map. As long as the king agrees to the marriage, the letter of credence can be accepted today. Within three days, The garrison in Maling Mountain will evacuate the first batch of people, and within a month, all soldiers and horses will be withdrawn from the southeast of Maling Mountain."
The ministers of the Eastern Qi Dynasty who were present heard that the Chu State made Princess Tianxiang their queen, and they felt that the Han State could not offer more favorable terms anyway. After all, the Han State emperor was old, and the Han State had already had a queen, so there were many People felt that the overall situation had been decided, and it was inevitable for Princess Tianxiang to go to the Chu State. However, the Han State ceded territory to seek marriage, which was naturally much better than the conditions after the establishment of the Chu State.
Not to mention the real benefits at hand, the most important thing is to occupy Maling Mountain. If Dong Qi has an extra barrier, this is a benefit that no matter how much money is spent and how many lives are spent, it may not be able to get it.
Almost instantly, the civil and military officials of the entire court knew that as long as the king of Eastern Qi was not confused, there would be no doubt about which country Princess Tianxiang would marry.
Beitangfeng turned around and made a gesture. An attendant held a long scroll and walked forward with his head lowered. He walked around the pool and was greeted by a young eunuch. Beitangfeng had already said: "Your Majesty, please allow the attendant to serve you." Specify the land being donated.”
At this time, the king of Dong Qi was convinced that Han had really ceded land, and he was extremely excited. If he could capture Maling Mountain in his hands, it would naturally be regarded as an expansion of territory. Since the founding of Dong Qi, the territory has not increased by an inch. Today, this is happening This opportunity can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I was in a great mood and said with a smile: "It's okay, I want to see what places the Emperor of Han Dynasty gave me."
The attendant bowed slightly, holding a long scroll in both hands, walked past the little eunuch, and climbed up the jade steps.
The ministers of the Eastern Qi Dynasty were all beaming with joy, whispering to each other, and many people were filled with emotion.
The people of Eastern Qi were rejoicing, and the people of Northern Han were high-spirited. However, Qi Ning and others were solemn at this moment. Qi Ning knew that the interests of the country were the first priority. At present, the actual benefits provided by the Han State far exceeded those of the Chu State. Under the circumstances, even if he is eloquent and has a sharp tongue, he may not be able to win back the hearts of the people of Dong Qi.
Although Linghu Xu said that he was partial to Chu in his heart, he was the Prime Minister of Eastern Qi after all. Since Han offered such a big piece of cake, he had no reason to turn it away, so he did not say anything at this time.
Qi Ning's mind was racing, thinking of ways to reverse the situation. At this time, he saw that the Northern Han Dynasty attendant had walked to the desk in front of the Eastern Qi monarch, knelt down on one knee, and spread the long scroll on the desk. The Eastern Qi monarch's expression Happy, his body leaned forward slightly, and he stroked his long beard with his hand. At this moment, he heard a voice shouting: "That's not right...!" The voice was cold and stern, but it was Shen Tuluo who had never said a word.
Everyone still didn't understand what was going on, but they heard a stern voice shouting: "Death to the foolish king!" Then they saw that the Northern Han Dynasty attendant actually pulled out a dagger from the unfolded scroll and stabbed the king of Dong Qi directly. past.
This turn of events was truly unbelievable. Many people present were dumbfounded and confused for a moment.
The face of the King of Dong Qi changed greatly, and when he saw the dagger about to pierce his chest, Qin Ning saw the body of the King of Dong Qi floating backward like a kite, as if there was a force pulling him back, and the entourage followed him like a shadow. , stepped forward, and followed closely. At this moment, a figure flashed, and a figure snatched out from the side. He slapped the follower with both hands, but it was exactly the figure who had been waiting beside the King of Dong Qi. An old eunuch.
The king of Eastern Qi was always accompanied by two old eunuchs, who lowered their heads and were extremely humble. They never expected that in times of crisis, this old eunuch would be so sharp in his actions.
The old eunuch held a small black piece of iron in his left hand. He didn't know what it was. He slapped it down at the Northern Han Dynasty attendant Tianling Gai. The Northern Han Dynasty attendant held a dagger to block it, and there was a loud bang. weird.
"Protect the Emperor!" Shen Tuluo roared loudly and rushed towards the jade steps. The warriors guarding in front of the palace heard the movement and rushed in with spears in hand. More than ten people rushed in at once and blocked the door.
The King of Dong Qi's body floated backwards, but before he hit the ground, another old eunuch reached out to grab him, and then put him down gently. The Prince of Dong Qi was the only person in the palace with a sword, and he had already rushed in front of the King of Dong Qi. , holding a long sword, protecting you in front of him, the king of the Eastern Qi Dynasty was in shock, and his face was pale. When he came to his senses, the Northern Han Dynasty attendant had already fought with the old eunuch for more than ten rounds.
From both sides of the hall, dozens of warriors wearing heavy armor rushed in and escorted them to the side of the King of Dong Qi. The King of Dong Qi came back to his senses and shouted sternly: "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin, I will kill her." Shattered into thousands of pieces!"
The prince shouted loudly: "Protect father and retreat." He personally escorted the Eastern Qi monarch to retreat, and seven or eight more warriors rushed forward with guns. However, the Northern Han attendant and the old eunuch were in a state of excitement, and they were as light as Yan, Qining's martial arts today are not what they used to be. It is clear that the martial arts methods of the Northern Han attendant and the old eunuch seem to be very similar.
Hearing a clear whistle, another old eunuch also flew up and rushed towards the Northern Han entourage. Two old eunuchs attacked the Northern Han entourage from the left and the right. The Northern Han entourage and the old eunuch fought alone but did not fall behind. However, with one against two at this moment, they were obviously at a disadvantage. More than a dozen armed guards surrounded them, but they could not find a chance to draw their guns.
The previous eunuch held an iron block in his left hand, and the later old eunuch held an iron block in his right hand. The weapons were exactly the same. Qining could see clearly, but he had never seen such a strange weapon before.
The entourage of the Northern Han Dynasty was barely equal to the two of them. The two old eunuchs, one on the left and the other on the right, cooperated tacitly, just like one person with four hands. The iron block was also extremely hard. There was a "pop" sound, and the iron plate in the hand of an old eunuch was already gone. It hit the Northern Han attendant on the shoulder. The Northern Han attendant swayed, but did not fall down. His movement was quite dexterous. He ducked around behind the old eunuch and stabbed the old eunuch's vest with the dagger, but he did not hit the target before it was hit. , another old eunuch had already rushed out from the side, reached out and slapped the iron block on the leg of the Northern Han attendant. The Northern Han attendant had obviously guessed it and wanted to dodge, but the old eunuch was too fast. , with a "pop" sound, the iron block hit the Northern Han attendant's leg again.
Prince Yu and Beitang Feng were stunned, their faces pale, and they stood motionless for a moment. The Northern Han Dynasty entourage followed them into the palace. Who could have imagined that it would turn into this moment in an instant. What was even more horrifying was that the assassin said it before Jiaochi is obviously a woman, and where did the woman come from among the Northern Han Dynasty’s entourage
Beitang Feng was stunned, but Qi Ning's mind was spinning. Wu Dalin and Qi Feng were worried about Qi Ning's safety and rushed to protect him. However, the weapons were confiscated before entering the palace, so they could only use their bare hands.
Qining saw that the Northern Han Dynasty attendant was fighting, his body was light, his hands and feet were stretched and soft, and his posture and movements were quite familiar. At this moment, he saw that the Northern Han Dynasty attendant had retreated to the edge of the pool, and the surrounding areas were surrounded by the pool. There was a circle of short jade railings. The Northern Han Dynasty attendant was forced to retreat to the edge of the pool by two eunuchs. His feet were already on the jade railings. The two eunuchs' tactics were extremely similar, and they cooperated extremely well. The Han followers had no power to fight back at this moment and could only parry.
The ministers in the palace were afraid of harming the fish in the pond, so they backed away one after another. Suddenly they heard another scolding from the Northern Han Dynasty attendant, his feet touched the jade railing, and his whole body had already drifted backwards, and he was over the pond. Suddenly, He heard a fierce voice shouting: "Where to go!" Suddenly a person appeared from the side and slapped the Northern Han attendant with one palm. The Northern Han attendant reluctantly tried to resist, but the other palm of the man appeared in the Northern Han Dynasty like a ghost. The attendant's chest was slapped hard on the chest of the Northern Han attendant.
The Northern Han attendant snorted softly and floated out. Two old eunuchs landed on the railing, one on the left and one on the right. Qi Ning could see clearly at this time that the person who took the opportunity to sneak attack from the side was none other than the Commander-in-Chief of the Dongqi Navy. Shen Tu Luo.
Shentu Luo slapped the Northern Han follower away with his palm, and followed closely. The Northern Han follower fell heavily to the ground. Before he could recover, Shentu Luo had already fallen from the sky. He stepped on the Northern Han follower with both feet. Although the follower was slapped and seriously injured, he still tried his best to roll a few times to avoid Shentu Luo.
At this time, a group of warriors rushed over with guns. The two warriors on the left and right drew out their spears and pierced the Northern Han follower. The Northern Han follower rolled again, grabbed the tips of the two spears, and waved his arms. The two people flew straight towards Shentu Luo like kites. Shen Tuluo reached out and grabbed the two of them and threw them aside. In this delay, the Northern Han follower had already opened the distance between him and Shen Tuluo and rolled on the ground. It suddenly bounced up and rushed towards Qining.
Qi Ning looked up at the Northern Han follower and saw the man's eyes. Qi Feng and Wu Dalin roared at the same time and were about to meet him. Qin Ning said in a deep voice: "Get out!" He stepped forward to bully the Northern Han follower and reached out his hand towards the Northern Han follower. He grabbed it with extremely fast movement. Although the Northern Han follower was seriously injured, he was still not slow. He twisted his waist, swept to the side, reached out, and actually grabbed Qining's wrist.
Wu Dalin and Qi Feng both changed their expressions in shock, but saw the Northern Han follower turn around and reach behind Qi Ning. The dagger in his hand was placed across Qi Ning's throat, and he said sternly: "Whoever dares to come close, kill him immediately! "
At this time, Shentu Luo was approaching. Dozens of Eastern Qi warriors surrounded the Northern Han entourage. Their silver spears were like snow, the cold air was overwhelming, and the surrounding was airtight. Qining opened his hands and said: "Don't mess around... !”
