Mou Liangbi ordered his men and horses, prepared food and grass, and was about to go down the mountain. He handed the wine bag full of poisoned wine to his cronies and told him to take it carefully. He changed into his official uniform, and added a thin ring chain armor inside. . After the fifth battalion of soldiers and horses were ready, he got on the horse and was about to order to go down the mountain when suddenly someone flew over from a distance. Mou Liangbi looked and saw that the man was one of Wanyan Chongde's subordinates, his name was Sa'erbei. Wanyan Chongde's personal companion.
"My lord, please go to the Cold Riding Camp, Your Highness... Your Highness accidentally fell from a high place while climbing a mountain this morning and was seriously injured."
Mou Liangbi's complexion changed, he looked at the team behind him who was ready to go, he pondered for a moment and told his cronies: "Let the team wait here, I have seen that His Highness will come back soon. He got off the horse and followed the cavaliers. Go behind Erbei to the Hanqi camp."
"Why did your Highness fall?"
"Early this morning, His Highness said that the weather was exceptionally good, and he planned to climb the mountain to wait for the sunrise. He only brought a few relatives to accompany him. Just now, the person who accompanied His Highness up the mountain carried His Highness back, saying that he accidentally stepped on the ground when he reached the top of the mountain. The stone rolled down and fell halfway up the mountain, with injuries all over her body, the princess cried and lost her mind, so please hurry over there."
Mou Liangbi was overjoyed when he heard these words, and said to himself that it was God's will to help me. The Hanqi battalion has always been a concern for him. There is no doubt about the combat power of these barbarians from the Northern Liao Dynasty, but they only listened to Yan Chongde's orders, and it was impossible for others to mobilize the Hanqi camp. Mou Liangbi had been thinking about how to control the ten thousand brave cavalry, but he couldn't think of a way. Who would have thought that Wanyan Chongde would actually seek death by himself.
"Take me there quickly."
Mou Liangbi looked anxious, turned around and ordered his own soldiers to invite his own medical officer to rush to the Hanqi camp immediately.
Sarbei said as he walked: "Your Highness has been in Shiwanda Mountain since he was a child. Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to stumble. No one thought that this would happen. When he was carried back, he was almost out of breath, and he didn't even have the strength to speak." There is no medical officer in the Cold Riding Camp, so the princess asked me to come and beg my lord to send someone there immediately."
"rest assured!"
Mou Liangbi said: "Your Highness and I are life and death friends, so I will try my best to save him."
Mou Liangbi was thinking as he walked, it would be best if Wanyan was seriously injured and intractable, and if there was still a glimmer of hope, he would order the medical officer to find a way to get rid of him. Wanyan Yunshu is a woman, although those cold cavalry soldiers respect her, but how does she know how to march and fight? As long as he finds a way to keep this team from returning to Shiwan Dashan, this Wanhanqi will be the sharpest knife in his hand in the future.
After arriving at the Hanqi camp, he found that the men from the Northern Liao region were crowded outside Wanyan Chongde's big tent. Princess Wanyan Yunshu of Beiliao waited anxiously at the door and couldn't help but look around, seeing Mou Liangbi coming from a distance, she hurriedly greeted him.
"How is Your Highness injured?"
"It's heavy."
Wanyan Yunshu said: "When I was carried down, I was already unconscious. I only woke up when I sent people to look for the lord, but the consciousness has been blurred and I can't recognize people. I know that the medical skills of the Han people are very good. My lord must do it. Save my brother."
"Don't worry, I'll let the medical officer do his best."
Mou Liangbi said something and walked towards the big tent. He looked at the cold cavalry soldiers around him, hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "It's not appropriate for the soldiers to surround here. It's best not to let them know about His Highness's injury, so as not to cause the army's morale to be unstable. They go back."
Wanyan Yun gave a special hum, and immediately ordered his cronies to disperse the surrounding cold cavalry soldiers.
Mou Liangbi opened the curtain and entered the big tent. After adapting to the dim light in the big tent, he took a closer look, and saw a person lying on the couch, covered with a thick quilt, and there were several Beiliao people on the side of the couch. The shaman on the ground is dancing weird dance steps, still muttering words.
The status of these shamans in Northern Liao is extremely noble, which is equivalent to the status of Buddhist sect in Mongolian Yuan. The great shaman can even sit on an equal footing with the Great Khan of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and the succession of the Khan must be presided over by the great shaman to be considered legal. Shamans, on the other hand, are actually warriors with good cultivation, just pretending to be gods and tricks. If someone in the Northern Liao region was seriously ill and medicine was ineffective, shamans would be invited to expel the disease. Mou Liangbi would not believe that they would be effective by jumping around the patient.
"Please let these shamans go out too, otherwise it will be difficult for the medical officer to rescue them."
Mou Liangbi said to Wanyan Yunshu in a low voice, but Wanyan Yunshu was puzzled: "The shaman is doing something, and no one is allowed to disturb him at this time. According to the rules of our Northern Liao, it is wrong to disturb the shaman's practice." Changshengtian is disrespectful and will be punished by heaven. My lord... please wait a moment."
Mou Liangbi originally wanted to say that this was a foolish act, but then he thought that it would be better for these shamans to dance for a longer time, the longer the delay, the more unfavorable it would be to Wanyan Chongde's injury.
He nodded immediately: "Even so, I will wait for a while."
Wanyan Yunshu thanked him, and stood by him watching the shamans dance. I don't know what the dance of those few people means. It's just a few movements tossing and turning, but it's stinky and long. It seems that there is no end to the dance. Mou Liangbi stood in the tent and waited for half an hour. The medical officer had arrived for a long time, and those people hadn't finished yet.
"Soon… "
Wanyan Yunshu saw that Mou Liangbi's face was a bit unsightly, and quickly explained: "It's almost over."
Mou Liangbi saw that those shamans were sweating profusely, and thought that it was really exhausting for these people to pretend to be gods and ghosts. He was just thinking about Fang Jie's affairs, so he didn't want to delay too long. He took advantage of this time to organize his thoughts again, and suddenly felt that he might be a little too radical. The imperial envoy who delivered the decree was deceived by him to go to Hou Wushan and went south. Fang Jie was located in the northeast of Fangu.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I really didn't hold my breath. If he led troops to send food hastily, it would arouse Fang Xie's suspicion. At this moment, he had to rejoice again, fortunately Wanyan Chongde was injured and delayed his going to Fan Gu. If he really had to lead troops, even if Fang Jie was really poisoned to death, Fang Jie's 5,000 troops would not be easy to control, a fight would be inevitable, and the loss would not be too small.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone calling him in a low voice. He looked back and saw that it was his confidant standing eagerly at the door of the big tent. Mou Liangbi glanced at Wanyan Yunshu and saw that she had been staring at the shamans, then turned around and went out to ask the cronies what happened. The confidant said eagerly: "Another group of imperial envoys have come to announce the decree, all in flying fish robes, the leader is holding the imperial decree in his hand, let Fang Jie accept the decree."
"But the last group of people?"
Mou Liangbi asked in surprise.
"no!"
Mou Liangbi frowned deeply, thought for a moment and said: "You invite the person to the big tent first, and I will go back immediately."
He looked back into the tent, and found that the shamans had finally finished the weird dance, stopped and wiped their sweat while talking to Wanyan Yunshu in a low voice, and looked this way from time to time. For some reason, Mou Liangbi always felt that there was no kindness in the eyes of those shamans looking over.
He didn't have time to talk to Wanyan Yunshu, so he turned around and walked out quickly.
When he was leaving, Wanyan Yunshu also turned to look at him, because she was too far away to see the expression on her face clearly, if he got closer, Mou Liangbi would definitely squint because of Wanyan Yunshu. It became the eyes of the crescent moon and was surprised.
…
…
There was still some distance away from the school grounds, and Mou Liangbi heard a burst of cheers like a tsunami from the team. His expression changed involuntarily, and he quickened his pace and walked towards the camp. Seeing that it was about to arrive, the cronies he sent back before hurried back.
"My lord, something is wrong!"
The confidant's face was extremely ugly: "I went to ask the imperial envoy who announced the decree to wait in the big tent, but those people ignored them at all, and they directly read out the decree. The school grounds were full of soldiers who were going to Fangu. The imperial decree was read out in front of the soldiers, saying that His Majesty rewarded each soldier with ten acres of land and rewarded with one hundred taels of silver. An officer is promoted."
"what else!"
Mou Liangbi asked eagerly: "And... and... appoint Fang Xie as the marching commander, preside over military affairs, and everyone is under his control."
"The Marching Chief... these imperial envoys are fake!"
Mou Liangbi's eyes immediately flashed a gloomy coldness: "Send my personal troops over, surround all those people, and let no one leave!"
His cronies immediately agreed, turned around and ran away. At this time, Mou Liangbi's personal army was also listening to the imperial envoy's announcement on the school grounds, and applauded along with the crowd. The decree is full of praise for the soldiers, and the rewards are generous, so the soldiers are naturally happy.
Seeing Mo Liangbi from a distance, someone immediately pointed to him: "Master Imperial Envoy, that is Lord Mou, and now he is acting as the commander."
"oh."
The imperial envoy Xuanzhi nodded, came down from the height, and walked towards Mou Liangbi with a group of flying fish robes behind him.
"Surround all these people!"
Mou Liangbi pointed at the flying fish robes, and the soldiers who had just rushed over were all taken aback. They first glanced at Mo Liangbi, and then looked for the answer in the eyes of their fellow robes. It's a pity that no one knows what the adults are so confused about.
"These people are fake, they are not imperial envoys!"
Mou Liangbi said loudly: "The imperial envoys sent by His Majesty have arrived a few days ago, and many people saw it with their own eyes! You idiots, why were you so deceived and didn't realize it?! These people are all fake, they are not from the imperial court at all. Those who came. Have you forgotten that the imperial envoy just left just a few days ago?"
The headed man in the flying fish robe snorted, sneered and said, "Master Mou, do you know the imperial decree in my hand? Do you know the clothes on us? You said that an imperial envoy came to announce the decree a few days ago. What about people?"
"Already gone!"
Mo Liangbi said loudly.
"oh?"
The man sneered and said, "You said that the man had already left, where did he go? You said that the imperial envoy had announced the decree, where is the decree? How dare you take it out for everyone to see."
"The imperial envoy passed... an oral order!"
Mou Liangbi said angrily, "Where did you come from, you dare to pretend to be angels!"
"Ha ha!"
The man laughed loudly: "An oral order? Your Majesty sent someone from thousands of miles away to deliver an oral order? No one would believe your words! What I have in my hand is the will written by His Majesty's royal pen, and His Majesty's seal as proof! It is clearly written that General Fang will be appointed as the marching chief to preside over military affairs, who will testify to your oral order? What is the oral order you got!"
Mou Liangbi said angrily: "Your Majesty's oral order is to let me take charge of military affairs!"
"oh… "
The man let out an oh, and looked at Mo Liangbi with contempt on his face: "Lord Mo, are you crazy for wanting to lead the army?"
This sentence made Mou Liangbi's expression change immediately!
wrong!
There was a flash of lightning in his mind, and some things that he didn't think to understand just now became clear immediately. Fang Jie did not come and sent a personal follower who said he would arrive at night, and also told him that an old friend came from the capital. This was deliberately told to him, in order to upset him. Then he mobilized food and grass troops and prepared to go to Fan Gu himself. But at this moment, Wanyan Chongde was injured, and he rushed to see Wanyan Chongde by himself. Those shamans were dancing endlessly weird dances to delay time! The purpose is to let these fake imperial envoys read the imperial decree in public!
Was counted!
Thinking of this, Mou Liangbi's heart suddenly sank, he pointed at the man and shouted loudly: "These people are all fake, come here, let me take them all!"
The imperial envoy holding the imperial decree held the horizontal knife in his hand and said angrily: "Mo Liangbi! Are you going to rebel!"
The surrounding soldiers looked at each other, and then all turned their eyes to Mo Liangbi. Even Mou Liangbi's soldiers were the same, looking at Mou Liangbi with strong doubts in their eyes.
