Chapter 352 The Emperor Walks His Hawk Every Day
The Beidi army took turns on duty all night, but the Beiyan army did not make any movement.
In order to prevent the enemy from using the tactic of tiring out the soldiers, Li Tieniu divided the Northern Army into three shifts.
Anyway, they have bombs, so they don't need so many people.
He just didn't understand what the Northern Yan army was doing?
Playing house?
For several days, whenever Ba Huai was about to attack, a letter would be delivered by a flying eagle, ordering him to return to the capital immediately.
Every time he walked a few miles towards the capital, he would receive a message from an eagle, asking him to attack immediately.
Seeing that the army's food and supplies are almost exhausted, the generals have no intention of fighting, let alone morale.
Some soldiers even set up private bets on whether to return to Beijing or attack today.
Li Tieniu and the Beidi Army found it very funny to see the Beiyan army carrying things back and forth.
Is this a leg-walking exercise or training escape skills?
After repeating this several times, Ba Huai also lay down.
He neither moved his camp back to the capital nor advanced to attack. He just stayed in the big tent every day waiting for the eagle to deliver letters.
Beiyan Palace.
Gu Xi goes to the palace every day to perform magic on the Emperor of Beiyan, and now he is very skilled in mind control.
It’s a pity that the time is too short and there are no other upgrade tasks now. I can only take down Beiyan first to upgrade this skill to the palace level.
Chu Zhao finally learned about Gu Xi's new skill.
"Axi, let's take advantage of this hour to negotiate with the Emperor of Northern Yan and sign the letter of credence."
Gu Xi hesitated and said:
"He is only controlled mentally, not a puppet. The talks may not be successful. After all, those ministers will definitely strongly oppose it. Even if he can sign the letter of credence, he will regret it once the time limit expires."
Chu Zhao said:
"But we have been here for a few days, and every day we just watch the Emperor of Northern Yan send messages by flying eagles. It's so boring. Don't we want to do something?"
Gu Xi looked at him lovingly:
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'm free anyway, so I might as well go and have some fun with the civil and military officials of the Northern Yan court."
The palace hall.
All the civil and military officials in the court came to court, waiting as usual for their emperor to have a seizure.
For several days in a row, the emperor took the eagle for a walk every day. I don’t know if the eagle was tired, but Ba Huai probably went crazy.
Gu Xi continued to use mind control techniques, and after Ji Mie issued another order to Ba Huai, asking him to withdraw his troops, Gu Xi and Chu Zhao suddenly appeared in the center of the hall.
Everyone was frightened by the sudden appearance of the two people, and the timid minister sat down on the ground.
"Who are you?!"
the ministers asked in horror.
The emperor also suddenly stood up from the dragon throne, his eyes wide open.
Gu Xi greeted everyone with a smile:
"Hi, everyone. Let me introduce myself first. I am the empress of Fengyi Country!"
Everyone was shocked.
"What?! The Queen of Fengyi Country?!"
"Where are the Golden Palace guards? Come and protect the emperor!"
There was chaos in the hall.
Some ministers fled and hid in all directions, losing their hats and shoes.
A large number of guards also rushed in and surrounded Gu Xi and Chu Zhao.
"Quick! Catch them!"
"Capture the Empress of Fengyi Country and you will be rewarded with a million taels of silver!"
Under the reward, there must be a brave man.
The guards rushed towards Gu Xi and Chu Zhao with spears.
Then suddenly I lost my target.
The two disappeared on the spot.
Some of the guards couldn't stop and bumped into their companions, and worse still, some even stabbed their companions.
"Where are the people?" Everyone looked around in surprise.
"It's above your heads." Gu Xi and Chu Zhao sat on the beams of the hall, swinging their legs leisurely.
Everyone was shocked. What kind of kung fu was this?
It suddenly appears, suddenly disappears, and suddenly appears above your head again.
"Archers come in to protect the emperor!" shouted the commander of the guards.
A group of guards rushed in with bows and arrows, shooting straight into the sky.
As soon as their arrows were shot, the two people on the beam disappeared again.
"Tsk tsk, look at how little courage you have. There are only two of us, can we eat you all?" Gu Xi's voice came.
Everyone looked and saw her standing next to the emperor.
Ji Mie was also shocked.
"You, who are you?"
Gu Xi glanced at him and said:
"Didn't I just say this? I am the Queen of Fengyi Country. I came to Beiyan this time to discuss a business with you."
Seeing that group of archers were aiming their arrows at Gu Xi again, Chu Zhao stood behind Ji Mie, took out a dagger and put it on Ji Mie's neck.
"Put down your weapons!" Chu Zhao shouted.
When the commander of the guards saw that the emperor had been kidnapped, he was so frightened that he quickly stopped the archers.
"Don't hurt the emperor!"
Ji Mie's face changed drastically, but he still maintained the dignity of an emperor and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, please retreat. With their skills, you won't be able to stop them if they want to kill me."
It is still within an hour, and Ji Mie is now an emperor who is wholeheartedly doing good.
Moreover, as a person who has been an emperor for twenty years, his IQ is also online. He can see that this man and woman have no intention of killing him, otherwise he would be dead now.
The commander of the guards had no choice but to obey the order and leave the hall, but he still stood guard outside, watching the interior of the hall with a keen eye.
They retreated and Chu Zhao put away the dagger.
Ji Mie breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Empress of Fengyi Country, I have heard of you. It is said that you are a messenger of God, and your Kung Fu is indeed superb. I wonder why you came to my Beiyan? If you want to rent land, this matter can be discussed. I have already discussed it with my ministers."
Gu Xi said:
"It's not just about renting land. In fact, I've been here for a few days. The root cause of all the things you've been discussing in the court is nothing more than one word: poverty."
The ministers were originally moving slowly towards the hall from their hiding places, but when they heard what Gu Xi said, they staggered in fear.
How many days have you been here?
Also attended their morning meetings?
And they were totally unaware.
I used to think that the identity of the Empress of Fengyi Kingdom’s divine envoy was to fool the common people, but now it seems that she is not a human being at all!
Ji Mie was also shocked, but as an emperor, he had to remain calm.
"Oh? This year's disaster is serious. Beiyan's treasury is indeed empty and there is no food to provide relief to the victims. What do you think the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom should do?"
The ministers were quite depressed.
Your Majesty, how could you reveal your secrets to the emperor of an enemy country?
But if you think about it carefully, if the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom really hid in the hall and eavesdropped on the court meetings for a few days, she would be able to guess it without the Emperor revealing it.
Half an hour had passed. Gu Xi had no time to waste and said directly:
"It's actually very simple. As long as Beiyan submits to my Fengyi Kingdom, the people of Beiyan will be my people, and I will not starve them to death.
"I can promise that we will solve their food and clothing problems this winter, and within three years, we will help them become wealthy and well-off. No one in Northern Yan will die of hunger and cold anymore."
As soon as Gu Xi said this, the ministers were immediately furious.
