The eunuch nodded slowly.
Li Deming said indifferently: "I use people and never look at whether they trust me sincerely. What I value is their talents, and what I care about is whether they can help me in Daxia."
After a pause, Li Deming's face was a little ugly and said: "But from the current point of view, not only did their father and son not help me get any benefits for Daxia, but instead caused Daxia to fall into the field where I am today.
If my Daxia is going to die, their father and son must be buried. "
The eunuch heard Li Deming's words and solemnly said: "The slave must send someone to stare at their father and son closely."
Li Deming nodded slowly.
A few days later.
In Xingqing Mansion, the wind and waves were calm.
From time to time, detective horses came from outside the house, sending pieces of news to Li Deming.
After Zhao Zhen led hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to the border of Xixia, he did not invade Xixia. Instead, he sent an envoy to the Xingqing Mansion, which was naturally delivered to Li Deming.
After Li Deming got the news, his heart beat wildly.
"Zhao Zhen wants to force me to subdue, but he didn't destroy my Daxia mind?"
"Zhao Zhen deliberately sent envoys to humiliate me?"
"Zhao Zhen led seven to eight hundred thousand soldiers to the border of Daxia. It is impossible to easily let Daxia go."
"..."
In an instant, Li Deming had countless thoughts in his mind.
Ninety-nine percent of the thoughts all felt that Zhao Zhen would not let Xixia off easily.
But there are still so little thoughts, I think Zhao Zhen will let Xixia go.
Although hope is very slim, Li Deming's heart is still hot.
What if Zhao Zhen really let go of Xixia's thoughts
"Murle?!"
Li Deming put down the internal secret document in his hand and shouted loudly.
His confidant eunuch appeared in front of Li Deming at his call.
"My lord, it's a slave!"
Li Deming commanded: "Quickly send people to rush to the outside of Baichi City to meet the Song Envoy, and then send people to vacate the largest post in the city to prepare to entertain the Song Envoy.
Then find some beauties, rare mountains and wild treasures, to entertain the Song ambassador. "
"Song Ambassador?"
Mulle was taken aback for a moment.
Li Deming scolded: "Hurry up?!"
Mulle hurriedly said: "The slave will go now."
Under Li Deming's order, Mulle left the Xixia Palace in a hurry.
After Mulle left, Li Deming whispered very firmly: "Zhao Zhen, I hope you can be as wise as your father!"
As soon as Li Deming's voice fell, Mulle hurriedly returned to the hall.
Li Deming saw that Moore went back and forth with joy, and said with a puzzled look: "Is there anything else I haven't explained clearly?"
Mulle hurriedly entered the hall, and before he could give a salute, he hurriedly said: "Great King, escape! Flee!"
Li Deming said suspiciously: "What escaped?"
Without waiting for Mulle to speak again, Li Deming suddenly widened his eyes and asked: "Xia Yu and Xia Anqi father and son escaped?"
Moore nodded heavily.
Li Deming exclaimed excitedly, "God helps me too!"
Moore looked at Li Deming without knowing it.
Li Deming laughed loudly and said, "I'm worried about what gift I can bring to see Song Shi, and now I have it. If their father and son keep tolerating it, I still can't deal with them.
They have jumped out now, so I have a reason to clean them up. "
Li Deming told Mulle: "Quickly, send someone to get their father and son back!"
Mulle hurriedly nodded and said: "The slave has ordered people to arrest. After their father and son disappeared from their respective residences, the slaves sent the news, and they must have not escaped from Xingqing Mansion.
The slaves had already controlled all the important Dao in Xingqing Mansion, and they would definitely be able to take down their father and son. "
Li Deming pondered for a moment, and said, "Don't take it lightly! Xia Yu is very good at fleeing. He can escape from Bianjing City, and he may also escape from Xingqing Mansion. You take someone to arrest yourself, and you must arrest them and their father and son. come back."
Mulle nodded and left the Xixia Palace hall again.
It took Moore two days to catch Xia Wei and Xia Anqi.
After the father and son left the mansion, they did not rush to escape from Xingqing Mansion, but hid in the cellar of a flower house.
The father and son should have planned to escape long ago, so a lot of food was stored in the cellar, and a tunnel was dug in the cellar to lead to another place.
However, even though the father and son were prepared, Mulle still caught them.
Their father and son were clever. They hid their whereabouts, and they did not reveal any flaws.
But Moore's persistence couldn't stand.
Moore leaped out of the Xixia Palace, sent someone to investigate, but found nothing.
So he took a large number of people and began to search inch by inch.
When he arrived at the place where the Song people lived, he simply digged three feet to find it.
Even if Xia Yun and his son were able to hide, they couldn't help Mulle looking for it.
After Mulle caught Xia Wei and his son, he escorted them into the Xixia Palace.
Xia Wei met Li Deming again, and the situation was completely different.
Li Deming stood on the hall with his hands on his back.
Xia Yu and his son were escorted like thieves, kneeling on the ground.
Li Deming stared at Xia Wei and sighed: "I remember that when I first saw you, you were very arrogant. Not only did you not bow to me, but instead asked me to bow to you.
I know you are talented, so I handed it over and bowed to you. I hope you can help me revitalize Xixia.
But you seem to be sorry for my courtesy. "
Xia Wei had a gloomy face, without words.
Li Deming stared at Xia Wei and continued: "Why did you want to escape from my Daxia? I treat you very well. But when my Daxia was in danger, you left me behind?"
Li Deming saw that Xia Yu was still silent, and said: "I have chosen such a time. You Xia Yu is a smart person. You should know how likely you are to be caught when you run away at this time."
Xia Wei finally spoke. He stared at Li Deming and said solemnly: "If I don't run away now, I will definitely die."
Li Deming wondered: "Why? I am not dead in Daxia, who can hurt your father and son's lives."
Xia Wei stared straight at Li Deming.
"you!"
"I?!"
Li Deming was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile: "Why would I take the lives of your father and son?"
Xia Wei resolutely said: "Because you have been killing my father and son long ago?"
Li Deming squinted subconsciously, "When?"
Xia Wei snorted coldly: "I propose that you send someone to assassinate Kou Ji."
Li Deming slowly nodded, staring at Xia Wei and asked: "How did you find out?"
Xia Yun did not hide it, and frankly said: "From that time, you began to send people to monitor me and my son. That is, at that time, I guessed that you were going to kill our father and son. It's father and son."
Li Deming paced in front of Xia Wei and asked with a smile: "Then tell me, why did I have murderous intentions against your father and son?"
"Because you want to use the heads of my father and son to calm the anger of the Song Emperor!"
Xia Wei said frankly.
Li Deming smiled and nodded, and exclaimed: "You are really smart."
Xia Wei snorted coldly: "I am not smart, I know in my heart, but you are stupid and pitiful."
"presumptuous!"
The loyal Mulle heard Xia Wei's rude words, and shouted angrily.
Li Deming waved his hand without any anger on his face. He stared at Xia Wei and said, "Tell me carefully, why am I so stupid and pitiful?"
Xia Yu coldly snorted, "Da Song has already come to the city with 700,000 soldiers and horses hoarding on the border, how can it be easily stopped. In this case, you don't think about retreating the enemy, but instead want to take my father and son. Isn't it stupid enough for the head to calm down the anger of the Song Emperor
Our father and son are Da Song’s Qin guilty, but our father and son are not important enough to allow Da Song to stop the Ge. "
The smile on Li Deming's face slowly faded, and replaced by a cold face. He stared at Xia Yu and snorted coldly: "Xia Yu, are you still here now
Are you really the only smart person in the world
Do you really think you can count the world
If that is the case, you will not escape Bianjing in embarrassment, let alone be caught by me.
What you can think of, how can I not think of it.
I also know that the Great Song Soldier will never give up when approaching the city.
But the elite soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are as large as seven to eight hundred thousand.
The elite soldiers in my hand are no more than one hundred thousand.
How can I compete with Da Song
Now that the Emperor Song Dynasty sent envoys to Daxia, it gave me a ray of life.
Even if I knew that hope was slim, I had to fight for it.
Because I have fought, I have the opportunity to survive in Daxia.
If I don't fight for it, Daxia will not have the slightest chance to survive. "
Xia Wei sneered and said, "It's useless to fight for it. Da Song will never let go of the meat on his lips."
Li Deming stared at Xia Wei coldly, "There are some things that you will know when you do it. Do nothing, only wait for death. I was showing my weakness to Da Song and begging Da Song to spare me Da Xia; I summoned me at the same time. All the troops in Daxia were ready to fight Da Song to the death when Da Song soldiers approached the city.
I'm trying everything that I can do, all the ways I can survive Daxia.
Even if I really lost, I lost to the Song people.
I also died standing up.
And you Xia Wei will only run away.
Escaped time and time again.
Finally destined to kneel to death.
You are not afraid of me now, because you understand that the winners and losers.
Since I was caught, definitely there will be no chance of surviving.
But I can tell you now, I won't kill you.
I will give you to Song people, let them take you back to Kou Ji.
I also want to tell Kou Ji that it was your father and son's idea to let the Liao people pass.
The tragic death of tens of thousands of people in the northwest of the Great Song Dynasty is also the sin of your father and son.
Sending someone to assassinate him is also your father and son's idea.
Guess how would Kou Ji treat you when he saw your father and son? "
Xia Wei's face changed drastically.
Li Deming didn't take care of him anymore, but looked at Xia Anqi with a complicated expression, "If you are my son, it would be great. If you are my son, Daxia, even if my Daxia is destroyed by the Song, will soon come back.
It's a pity that you are not my son, and you have an unconscious father.
Not only did not enjoy the blessing with him, but also flee and die together with him. "
Li Deming really appreciates Xia Anqi.
Because he thinks Xia Anqi is very similar to when he was young.
I like to have the right source, like to stand on the tip of a knife and dance, like to seek benefits for myself through the struggle between others.
Although Xia Anqi's plan in the northwest had made huge mistakes, Li Deming knew that he couldn't blame him.
Xia Anqi's plan is not wrong, it can even be said to be perfect.
Otherwise, Li Deming would not use his plan, let alone abandon the rich territory to lead Liao people into the northwest.
Xia Anqi's plan in the northwest was defeated by the incompetence of the Liao people, and by the variable Kou Ji.
If Kou Ji hadn't appeared in the northwest, Xia Anqi's plan would definitely come true.
If the Liao people let go of their arrogance and despise their hearts, and pay a little more attention to Kou Ji, Xia Anqi's plan would be successful.
Xia Wei wanted to take revenge on Xixia's strength, but he didn't give Xixia much effort.
On the contrary, it was Xia Anqi, who frequently helped Xixia make suggestions.
Although Xia Anqi had the same purpose as his father.
But his approach is completely different from his father.
Li Deming could tell.
Xia Anqi gritted his teeth and stared at Li Deming and said, "The Lord... can you..."
Before Xia Anqi's words were finished, Li Deming shook his head decisively, "I won't give you father and son a happy one... It is more advantageous to give Da Song two living people than to give Da Song two heads...
In these few days, I will send someone to serve you father and son with delicious food and drink.
When the Great Song envoy arrives, I will send someone to give them your father and son. "
Xia Anqi sighed, clenched his teeth and lowered his head.
Li Deming waved his hand and said to Mulle: "Take them father and son down and watch them carefully!"
Mulle agreed and asked Xia Yun and his son to leave the hall.
Li Deming stood in the middle of the hall and sighed: "I hope you father and son can be of some use."
Li Deming's voice slowly dissipated in the hall.
After Xia Yu and his son were escorted to a very tightly guarded cell.
Xia Anqi gritted his teeth and said, "Father, you know that escape is the most dangerous at this time."
Xia Yun closed her eyes in pain, and said, "It's father's fault... it's father hurt you..."
Xia Anqi sighed inwardly, without words.
Xia Wei opened his eyes, staring at the dark prison cell, and muttered: "If our father and son wait until the soldiers of the Song Dynasty reach Xingqing Mansion, we will definitely escape Xingqing Mansion.
When the soldiers and horses in Xingqing Mansion come out, it will be very chaotic.
If we run away in the chaos, no one will find us. "
Xia Wei glanced at Xia Anqi, gritted his teeth and said: "But our father and son will not survive that time. Li Deming is eyeing our father and son, he will definitely kill our father and son before the war begins, to avoid future troubles.
I thought that our father and son could plan for more days and then escape.
But when I learned that the emperor of Song Dynasty had sent envoys to Xixia, I knew that if our father and son did not escape, we might die sooner.
Our father and son are useless to Xixia.
Li Deming will surely do a favor, send our father and son to Da Song and let Kou Ji kill.
Li Deming didn't want to go to war with Da Song, nor did he have the power to go to war with Da Song.
So he will do everything possible to please Da Song.
To seize the silver lining that does not exist at all.
Although I was in the palace, I was telling Li Deming everywhere, but his words were no different from what I had speculated. "
