Chapter 122 Dragon and Phoenix County
Chapter 122 Dragon and Phoenix County
"Didn't you let me go?"
Li Deli turned back to look at Tang Bo tremblingly and asked in a low voice.
"Yes."
A hint of mockery appeared on Tang Bo's face. "I will indeed let you go, and I will also give you some silver. You took the trouble to send the silver from Shengjing, so I want to return the favor!"
"Thank you, sir. I don't want it anymore. Just let me go."
Li Deli no longer had the courage to ask Tang Bo for money.
He also knew that Uncle Tang was not that kind-hearted.
Moreover, when he sent the silver over, he often used words to bully this person.
"Haha, didn't you come here just to get away with the money I have?"
Tang Bo sneered at Li Deli and asked, "Why don't you want it now that I'm offering it to you?"
"me."
Li Deli felt increasingly cold in his heart, and now he was stuck in a dilemma.
"I will give you a chance to live. Do you want it?"
"Yes, I want it. What opportunity?"
Li Deli seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and hurried to kneel beside Tang Bo.
"As long as Lord Tang is willing to let me go, I will do anything."
"Good, good, good!"
Tang Bo stood up and patted his robe.
He said coldly, "As long as Boss Li is willing to go to the Seven Nations Alliance in An Province and tell the person in charge there that it was Emperor Li, that bastard, who destroyed the Misty Rain Pavilion in Shengjing in conjunction with the Northern Huan Cavalry, that's all that matters."
"You... aren't you asking me to die?"
Li Deli is no fool.
Although he is an administrator of Shengjing Yanyu Pavilion, he is not an important figure in the Seven Nations Alliance of Daxia.
Normally they are well managed, but if there are any mistakes, the G7 will not hesitate to get rid of them.
But now, it is not a small mistake.
Shengjing Yanyu Pavilion was directly destroyed. No matter who destroyed it, he, the manager, would surely die.
By then, the State of Zhao, on which he relied, would not stand up for a small character like him. In fact, it might even be the first to come forward and execute him because he knew too many secrets.
"As long as you do as I say, I will save your life."
Tang Bo said to Li Deli with a solemn oath.
"How can I believe that what you say is true?"
Li Deli looked up at Tang Bo, staring into his eyes, and said coldly, "Although you are an official from Liaoan Province, the Seven Nations Alliance will not give you face, right?"
At this moment he knew that there was no use in being afraid.
If you're going to die anyway, you might as well be tough.
What's more, he has evidence of Lin Zhen and Zhao Guo's conspiracy.
When Situ Ming first came to Shengjing.
Lin Zhen asked Situ Ming to let him surrender to him, in order to secretly inform Lin Zhen of the order given to him by the State of Zhao.
Although Li Deli did not agree at that time, he did not refuse either.
He served Situ Ming very well during those days. To express his gratitude, Situ Ming left him a token that Lin Zhen gave to all those who surrendered from the "Seven Nations Alliance" and asked him to think about it.
Although Li Deli didn't pay much attention to the matter at the time, he was still cautious and didn't tell anyone about it.
"I don't have that much face, but that doesn't mean the young prince doesn't have it."
Tang Bo said in a deep voice, "Besides, this matter won't do you any harm. The news of the destruction of the Shengjing Misty Rain Pavilion will eventually reach Lai Liao'an Province. All you did was muddy the waters and let the leaders of the Seven Nations Alliance blame the damn emperor for this."
"All right!"
Li Deli nodded in agreement, like a deflated ball.
Seeing his appearance, Tang Bo smiled and helped him up.
He said loudly, "Remember, you can say what you should say. But you must not say things that you shouldn't say. Otherwise, even the young prince can't protect you."
When Li Deli heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but it was hidden so well that Tang Bo did not notice.
"Master Tang, today I want to experience the joy of being a man. I will report to Yanyu Pavilion tomorrow. You also know that I am going..."
"Humph, you're still thinking about sex when you're about to die."
Tang Bo sneered in his heart, but on the surface he laughed and nodded in agreement.
.......
The outskirts of Longfeng County, an important town bordering Liaoan Province and Shengjing.
"Your Majesty, five kilometers ahead is Longfeng County in Liaoan Province. Would you like me to go there first and notify the local governor to come and welcome you?"
An Bilie rode up to Emperor Li and asked in a low voice.
"unnecessary."
Lin Tian looked at the city wall not far away and said meaningfully, "Liao'an Province is not as safe as you think right now. If it is not necessary, please do not reveal my identity. Just treat us as ordinary soldiers rushing to the front line from Shengjing."
"According to the order."
An Bilie bowed and replied.
Pulling the reins, he came to the front of the team again.
"Your Majesty, why is the name of this place called "dragon and phoenix"? Doesn't this represent the Emperor and Empress of Daxia?"
Qi Mengchan was wearing armor, and her long black hair, as black as a waterfall, was combed into a strand, rising and falling as her warhorse moved forward.
It can truly be said that women are as good as men.
"I didn't expect you to know so much about Daxia's culture?"
Lin Tian smiled and looked at Qi Mengchan, explaining, "It is said that before Daxia was founded, the founding emperor's hometown was here. Later, after Daxia was founded, the first capital was also built here. However..."
Lin Tian suddenly remembered that he had read in documents why Daxia moved its capital, and he felt a surge of emotion in his heart.
He whispered softly, "The emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies for the country."
"Back when Daxia was founded, wars were still raging in the north. Although Ningfeng Province was Daxia territory, it was still in enemy hands. The First Emperor was determined to completely defend Daxia's borders, and that's why he moved the capital to Shengjing."
"Your Majesty, the enemy you are talking about is not our Beihuan, right?"
Qi Mengchan asked with an embarrassed look on her face.
"No, it's a Rakshasa."
"What about us Beihuan at that time? Is there any record of it in the history books of Daxia?"
Qi Mengchan asked like a curious baby.
After the collapse of Northern Huan last time, many secret historical records kept by the monarch have disappeared, resulting in many things being impossible to investigate.
"you?"
Lin Tian was also stunned by Qi Mengchan's words.
It seems that there is no record of the Beihuan people in Daxia at that time. Since the records began, the Beihuan people seemed to have reached a certain scale.
It feels like these Beihuan people just popped out of rocks.
"I don't know either."
Lin Tianzhen is really good at telling the truth.
When Qi Mengchan heard this, a hint of disappointment suddenly appeared on her face, but she quickly recovered.
Given the current situation in Beihuan, it is not so important to dwell on past history.
It is not easy to continue the Beihuan nation.
"Then after Ningfeng Province was recovered, why didn't your royal family move the capital back to Longfeng County?"
Qi Mengchan asked again.
"By then, Shengjing had already grown to a considerable size, becoming one of the largest capitals in Daxia. Furthermore, the palace had already been built, and relocating the capital would have required a significant investment in rebuilding it."
Lin Tian explained as best he could.
"Don't you Daxia people miss your ancestral land?"
Qi Mengchan was a little confused.
According to the customs of Beihuan, no place is better than the ancestral land.
So over the years, no matter what happened, the Beihuan people were unwilling to leave that land.
This is also one of the reasons why the population of Beihuan has never been able to break through.
None of them wanted to expand their territory. Even if new territory was available, high-ranking Northern Huan officials like the Wolf Lord wouldn't go there.
"As long as it's Daxia's territory, it doesn't matter where it's built, right?" Lin Tian asked with a smile.
"However, the governor of Longfeng County has always been a member of the royal family. He is a descendant of the first emperor's younger brother. This has remained unchanged for so many years. Perhaps this is also another form of commemoration."
