Even though she didn't want to sit back and watch this terrible neighbor, she grew stronger. But they Xirong, because of the civil strife in the court, also urgently needed a chance to breathe.

It seems that it can only be temporarily compromised for the common needs of the two countries.

"Since you and I both want peace talks." The Empress Dowager didn't hide, "Then ask your troops on the border to withdraw first. Especially your General Mo Qiaosheng, he is simply barbaric and rude. For the sake of talking to you, I have long since assembled our Xirong army and officially fought with him."

In just a few days, the terrifying General Mo Qiaosheng of the Jin State led a cavalry without luggage, each carrying only a few days' worth of food, like a steel knife, and drove straight into the hinterland of Xirong.

There was no one to stop him all the way, and he has reached a place less than fifty miles away from Haojing.

Cheng Qianye took out a letter of credentials from his sleeve, with several treaties written on it, and offered it with both hands.

A war without the smoke of gunpowder unfolded above this hall, tug-of-war from morning to sunset.

The two sides haggled, back and forth, until the details of every treaty were hammered out.

When it was time to sign and seal, Cheng Qianye casually added: "By the way, the queen mother, I want to beg someone with you."

...

The hell where the sun never sees the light,

The heavy iron door creaked open.

Old Li raised his head and saw a group of attendants in bright clothes and bright armor came in at the dimly lit gate, and among them was a woman in a splendid costume.

The woman didn't mind the filth of the prison at all, and quickly walked down the stairs and went straight to the door of the prison next to him.

The author has something to say: Let's talk about the decision of Cheng Qianye's personal mission.

First of all, this must be a very wrong decision. As the monarch of a country, it is too impulsive to put himself in danger just to save a counselor.

Only Mo Qiaosheng could be persuaded by her. If it was Zhang Fu or Xiao Jin, it would be impossible for her to go.

What I want to say is that because of her system ability, Chiba looks like a radiant and perfect person. But in fact, she has her own emotions, and she will make irrational decisions on impulse.

In fact, we can also see in history that many monarchs have made unwise actions. For example, the typical King Huai of Chu went to Qin State with his own will, and the result was of course very bad. Because of Guan Yu's death, Liu Xuande did not listen to Zhuge Liang's advice, and insisted on taking his troops and horses to take revenge, and his company was set on fire.

But just because they are flesh and blood people, there are various possibilities in life.

Another point is that the state of Jin is still only a small state of vassals, and Cheng Qianye is still different from those great kings who are high above the temples.

Finally, let's rectify Zhang Fu's name. Mr. Zhang is still innocent. How did you go to the group?

Chapter 84

It was a dimly lit, muddy prison.

Because there is no ventilation, and it is full of people, the smell is very unpleasant.

Cheng Qianye didn't have time to pay attention to these, her eyes were one by one in the cells separated by thick wooden railings, the pure amethyst.

The accompanying Xirong officials were about to order the jailer to bring the person up when they saw the Jin princess in a splendid dress, ignoring the hem of her skirt dragging on the ground in the mud, and walking straight towards a cell.

Cheng Qianye walked quickly to the cold and wet cell,

I saw the bloody body shrinking in the corner.

Her eyes were red for a moment, she raised her fist and smashed the railing made of rough wood, gritted her teeth to restrain the anger in her heart.

She couldn't associate the tortured prisoner with faceless Zhang Fu, who had always been well-dressed, smiling and curvy, and gentle and handsome.

But on the stained body, a mysterious purple radiance shone brightly, a unique radiance, letting her know that she was not looking for the wrong person.

Cheng Qianye stabilized his emotions, turned his head and whispered to Cheng Feng: "Save people."

The jailer opened the cell door, and Cheng Feng bent down and stepped into the cell.

He squatted beside Zhang Fu, first checked his face, and then stretched out his fingers to probe Zhang Fu's carotid artery, feeling a faint throbbing there, and nodded to Cheng Qianye outside the door.

"Mr. Zhang, we are late." Cheng Fengfu said something in Zhang Fu's ear, then took off his cloak, wrapped Zhang Fu's body, and carried the man out of the cell.

"Mr. Zhang? Zhang Fu!" Cheng Qianye frowned and called out twice.

Zhang Fu was in a coma when he heard a voice calling his name.

He reluctantly opened his eyes, and vaguely saw a familiar face.

So he murmured in a low voice: "Lord, lord. I...I can see you again."

Cheng Qianye turned her face sideways and gritted her teeth, she didn't want to show weakness in front of the enemy.

"Let's go." Cheng Qianye said.

A group of people came suddenly and walked quickly.

There was a hum of discussion in the prison.

"Okay, stinky boy. You really waited for it." Lao Li looked at the reopened prison door and spat, "This is the first time I have seen someone who went out alive. It's a pity, there will be no free tomorrow. Eat it."

Cheng Qianye and others took Zhang Fu out of the prison and boarded the carriage.

early in the convoy

Prepare two military doctors and one medicine,

As soon as Zhang Fu was taken to the car, two military doctors surrounded him and bandaged him.

The military doctor's hands were quickly stained with blood, and Zhang Fu's painful and deep guttural voice sounded from time to time in the carriage.

Cheng Qianye sat silently in the corner of the carriage, looking at the young face who was still frowning in a coma.

Because of Zhang Fu's composure and intelligence, Cheng Qianye was always too reassured about him, thinking that he could handle all problems.

Looking at this bloodless face at this moment, Cheng Qianye couldn't help but regret it. But at the same time she has some admiration. With such a weak body, this person took risks alone and completed an extremely difficult task. He is a scholar with no strength, and a real hero.

"His Royal Highness." A doctor turned around and saluted Cheng Qianye.

"The inside of the car is narrow, no need to be polite, how is the situation?" Cheng Qianye raised his hand.

"There is no fatal wound on the patient's body," the doctor hesitated for a while, "but in prison, some destructive tactics are used to torture people, and the treatment will make the patient suffer. At this moment, this adult's body is very weak, and I'm afraid... don't stop."

Cheng Qianye frowned tightly and his eyes were cold: "Mr. What is the best strategy, please speak bluntly."

The doctor was taken aback by Cheng Qianye's cold gaze. He was a military doctor, and he was used to seeing generals with imposing manners on the battlefield.

Unexpectedly, this beautiful princess in front of him could actually give him the feeling of being on his back like those generals full of murderous intent.

He answered cautiously: "It is recommended by the low-ranking officer that we can only briefly bandage it first, rush back to Zhengzhou as soon as possible, and then carefully adjust the body for this adult and properly diagnose and treat it."

Cheng Qianye thought for a moment, lifted the curtain of the car, and whispered to Cheng Feng who was guarding the car: "Turn the horse's head, we won't go back to the post house, we will go out of the city now to prevent accidents from happening again."

Cheng Feng promised in a low voice that they went straight to the east gate and left the city with the credentials that were not signed by the queen mother.

the next morning,

Sitting in the palace without hiding the queen mother, she slowly turned the string of dzi beads in her hand and reviewed the general details of yesterday's negotiation.

"You said she got Zhang Fu and left the city immediately?"

In front of her stood respectfully an official in Xirong who was in charge of receiving foreign guests. The man bowed and replied: "Princess Jin arrived at the Qiuguan Office prison last night, picked up the Fu, and stayed in the carriage for a while. Then she said to the subordinate. The peace talks are over, since the Queen Mother has signed the credentials with them, they should return to the country earlier, so as to know the lord, so they hurried out of the city through the east gate."

Xirong is a newly established country. Before the founding of the country, it was a nomadic people who only knew how to herd horses and sheep, and there were no standard etiquette regulations to be found in the reception of foreign guests.

The ceremonial official looked at the Queen Mother's expression and felt that he might have done something wrong.

He was afraid that the queen mother would know that yesterday he and the gatekeeper had received a big gift from the princess of Jin, so he quickly opened the door and released him.

So he hurriedly remedied: "Xiaguan also wanted to report back to the Queen Mother last night. Because it was late, the palace people outside the door said that the Queen Mother had been placed, and Xiaguan did not dare to disturb him, so he came to report it early this morning."

The Empress Dowager didn't hide her brows and waved her hands to chase people away: "It turns out that she went around in such a big circle for Zhang Fu."

No Saffron, who was sitting on the side, was surprised when he heard this.

"No, no, sister." No saffron said, "Is this contract she came to sign all fake?"
