As mentioned before, Song Qingshu designed a plan that has been quietly launched. Naturally, it is a countermeasure that has been tried and tested in Chinese history. Lin Pingzhi was sent to pretend to recruit the Mu brothers. Followed by a series of expansions.
Song Qingshu didn't expect the Sichuan side to act so fast, Lin Pingzhi had already come here to discuss with the Mu brothers, his eyes were full of praise for his efficiency.
It's a pity that this is not the time to reminisce about the past, the two exchanged glances and decided on the next steps, Song Qingshu said: "I will lure away the pursuers for you."
"Okay!" Lin Pingzhi didn't show any pretense, he knew how high Song Qingshu's martial arts were, so there was no danger in luring the pursuers away for him.
After Lin Pingzhi left, Song Qingshu purposely ran up to the group of pursuers and waved, luring them in the opposite direction.
Let’s say that not long after Lin Pingzhi returned to the room, there was a hasty knock on the door outside. Before he could respond, the door was violently knocked open from the outside, and brothers Mu Yuqi and Mu Wangrong left immediately. Come in.
"What are you two doing?" Lin Pingzhi pretended to have just woken up.
When Mu Yuqi saw that he was actually in the room, he couldn't help being startled, and exchanged glances with Mu Wangrong: "It's nothing, there are thieves in the house, and worried that Song envoy would be in danger, so he came here to check."
Lin Pingzhi naturally knew what was going on in his heart, but on the surface he still had to pretend to be grateful: "Thank you two kings for your concern, I haven't seen any thieves here."
Mu Yuqi nodded, and looked around the room for a week. He didn't see anything unusual, so he turned and left: "Emissary Song has a good rest, and don't go out recently, so as not to cause any danger."
"I must keep it in mind, and the two kings must be careful." Lin Pingzhi sent them out politely.
After the two brothers left his yard, Mu Yuqi looked at his subordinates on the side: "Are you sure the thief is on the other side?"
The soldier replied: "It's sure, the brothers saw with their own eyes that the thief fled to the west wing."
At this time Mu Wangrong stepped forward and said, "It seems that we are worrying too much, that thief is not an envoy of the Song people."
"If it's not the Song envoy, then who could it be?" Mu Yuqi frowned.
"Our brothers have made a lot of enemies in Xixia, and I think most of them are from Emperor Uncle Li Ganshun." Mu Wangrong snorted coldly.
Mu Yuqi nodded and said, "I also think he is the most suspect, and King Yi Li Liangzuo is also quite suspicious."
Mu Wangrong suddenly thought of something, and said: "Let's not worry about it for now, the Snitch has arrived in the West Chamber, isn't that where the family members are?"
Mu Yuqi's face changed, and then he came to his senses: "Go, let's go there quickly!"
Let’s talk about Song Qingshu leading the guards around in circles. Originally, he could easily shake off these tails, but in order to buy enough time for Lin Pingzhi, he finally ran for a while and then deliberately stayed and waited for the guards to prevent them from catching up. But it won't be lost.
But after a while he felt something was wrong, and suddenly a large number of guards rushed over from all directions. Although he was good at lightness kung fu, he could easily go in and out of the heavily guarded palace on weekdays. He sneaked in before reacting, but now there are guards everywhere, so many eyes staring at him, no matter how good his lightness skill is, he can't disappear into a fly.
Seeing brothers Mu Yuqi and Mu Wangrong from a distance, Song Qingshu gradually understood what was going on. They were generals who controlled half of Xixia's military power, and they probably mobilized soldiers to rush over.
Song Qingshu was forced to have nowhere to hide by the soldiers coming from all directions. In fact, with his martial arts and lightness skills, it is not difficult to rush out, but he is worried that he will startle the snake, and he is still thinking about the scimitar mentioned by Lin Pingzhi just now. In his plan, whether the Mu brothers really surrendered or pretended to surrender does not affect the overall situation, the key is to convince some people that they really surrendered, and to do this, tokens are the key.
For the Xixia people, the scimitar that a person carries is like himself, representing determination and credibility. If he can get his scimitar silently, then the matter is at least half successful.
Song Qingshu wanted to stay and steal the scimitar, but there were more and more guards around him, and his range of activities was restricted. In desperation, he could only simply hide in a nearby room. After all, there are so many rooms here. It is not easy to find someone who is hiding.
However, he frowned as soon as he entered the room, because he was so focused on avoiding the guards' arrest just now that he didn't notice that there was already a person in the room!
"Who?" The person on the bed obviously also noticed the change, sat up and looked at this side suspiciously.
Song Qingshu knew that if the other party called out and led the pursuers over, today would be a little troublesome. In a flash of desperation, he threw himself down beside the man and covered his mouth before the other party shouted out.
"Huh~" Song Qingshu suddenly smelled an elegant fragrance, and his hands were soft-tender and greasy, and he couldn't help being startled. The voice of the other party's words was a little distorted, and he couldn't tell that she was a woman.
"Don't make a sound, don't worry, I won't hurt you." Song Qingshu is not the kind of person who makes things difficult for women. Feeling her trembling body, he hurriedly comforted her, and then focused all his attention on the guards who were approaching outside.
To his surprise, most women would not be very rational in such a situation, and would react violently, but after hearing what he said, she actually calmed down instantly, neither crying nor making trouble, which made him feel a little nervous for a while. Did not respond.
Of course, his attention was mainly on the guards outside. Originally, he thought that with the help of the female family's residence, the guards would be wary. After all, men and women are different at night, but he didn't expect that group of guards to rush directly to the west wing without any scruples. , and now they are going from house to house and room to room to check.
"The atmosphere of Xixia is so open?" Song Qingshu was a little confused. Such a thing was absolutely unimaginable in the Southern Song Dynasty. No one would allow his soldiers to break into the women's house in the middle of the night to search people from room to room. , What if you see something you shouldn't see, isn't there a burst of green light on the head of the hero
"Search one by one, don't let go of every one. In addition, the archers outside are ready, and if the opponent tries to break through, they will immediately shoot ten thousand arrows!" The voice of the Mu brothers commanding came from not far away.
"It's really troublesome now." Song Qingshu smiled wryly. He wanted to take a chance, but he was blocked to death. Now that there are so many soldiers surrounded, it is not easy for him to leave.
These two people really deserved to be the famous generals of Xixia, they defeated the army of Northern Song Dynasty several times many times ago, and they experienced it personally today, they really lived up to their reputation.
"Dong dong dong!" Not long after, there was a knock on the door, "Miss, someone broke into the West Wing, are you okay?"
"Miss?" Song Qingshu was stunned, he didn't expect that he was so lucky, he broke into the room of his daughter directly, although he didn't know if it was the first lady or the second lady, but he thought of the Mediterranean style of the Mu brothers, and the three big five With a thick appearance, a daughter born of such genes should not be overestimated.
At this time Song Qingshu obviously felt that the other party was poking him with his fingers, as if he wanted to have something to say to him, Song Qingshu simply let her go, now that she yelled, it seemed that she could only win and rush out.
Who knows that the woman didn't scream and ask for help as she imagined, but said in a dissatisfied tone: "What's the noise, Miss Ben is asleep, go search other rooms."
Song Qingshu was taken aback, let alone her abnormal words and deeds, her voice alone seemed familiar.
The other party was covered with her mouth covering most of her face just now, and the whole person was huddled under the quilt. He didn't pay attention to her appearance for a while, but now he looked sideways out of curiosity. Although the light was not turned on in the room, he commented With the firelight coming in from the window, he could also see the other person's appearance clearly: the new moon was shining brightly, the flowers and trees were piled up with snow, a face was beautiful and extraordinary, with a pointed chin, a pale, smooth and crystal-clear complexion, and a nimble cherry mouth. Correct, with very thin lips, and two rows of thin teeth like broken jade, she is really a stunning beauty.
"Mu Wanqing!" Song Qingshu never expected to meet her in this situation.
Mu Wan gave him an innocent look, as if she was complaining why he only recognized herself at this moment. Although her skill was far inferior to the other's, and she couldn't see things in the dark as if they were daylight, the natural sensitivity of a woman made her recognize her lover's voice, and still There is the familiar feeling on the lover.
The guards outside obviously didn't give them a chance to talk about the past, and continued to knock on the door: "Miss, the king has sent an order to search every room, and I hope the lady will not embarrass us."
Mu Wanqing frowned her beautiful eyebrows, she heard determination from the other party's words, so she pulled back the quilt and said to Song Qingshu in a low voice, "Hide in quickly."
Song Qingshu was startled, he originally wanted to use martial arts to forcibly fight a bloody path, but now that there is a more convenient way, he will naturally not refuse, not to mention that the two have already hit it off, he is not Liu Xiahui who will be pedantic in this situation Talk about whether men and women can accept or not kiss each other.
Without any hesitation, he got into the bed all at once, only feeling a sweet fragrance, and couldn't help feeling that a woman's bed is indeed much more attractive than a smelly man's bed.
Because she was sleeping just now, Mu Wanqing's body under the quilt was dressed a little coolly. The two of them were so close together that they could almost touch her skin with a single movement. They felt soft and soft for a while, and Song Qingshu couldn't help but There was a burst of rippling.
Mu Wanqing was obviously much shyer than him, when touched by his body, she quickly shrank back like a frightened rabbit, and her breathing became a little short of breath.
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly knocked open by soldiers outside. Mu Wanqing exclaimed, pretending to pull up the quilt to cover her chest, but in fact it was to better cover her lover beside her: "Bold, what are you doing?" What are you going to do?"
"Wan'er, it was Daddy who made them knock on the door." Mu Yuqi strode in.
