Chapter 270

"You can understand it as a kind of water that can quench your thirst." Song Yan explained.

"Thank you sir."

Princess Yuhu took the Coke bottle and took a sip, and immediately felt a burst of air bubbles bursting in her mouth. The wonderful feeling was indescribable, and her eyes became bright.

In the end, Princess Yuhu only ate half of the bread and drank half a bottle of Coke.

Song Yan did not expose her little thought, and waved her hand, indicating that she could leave.

The next day, the team continued on the road.

The closer you get to the edge, the more barren the surrounding scenery becomes, revealing an autumnal bleakness.

Song Yan, who was riding on a horse, was yawning and felt quite bored. For some reason, he always felt like he was playing a real game. People who looked at the world were like NPCs.

Suddenly, Song Yan felt a pair of slightly timid eyes secretly watching him in the carriage. Even if he didn't look back, he knew who the owner of those eyes was.

Finally, in the evening, a small city appeared at the end of the earth.

"Young Master Song, there is Linbian City in front." Meng Bozhao pointed to the city road in front of him, and finally there was a hint of relaxation on his tough and tough face.

"Um."

Song Yan nodded, indicating that he saw it.

There is no city wall in the city on the water blue star. Song Yan still feels relatively new to see a city with a city wall.

"Who is coming?"

As evening approached, the city gates were closed, and entry and exit was prohibited.

And now is a special period, Limbian is only an isolated city in Qi Kingdom, so seeing this group of people approaching, the soldiers on the city wall are all nervous and shout loudly.

The city wall on the edge is not high, only about two meters. Not to mention Song Yan, it is not difficult for ordinary people to climb over it. If it hadn't been close to the frontier, this small city would have been conquered by the allied forces of Yan and Zhao long ago.

And Meng Bozhao wanted to rely on this small town to start his country and restore his country, he can only say that the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.

Meng Bozhao reined in the reins and shouted to the soldiers on the city wall: "I am Meng Bozhao, the Yangwu general personally appointed by His Majesty the King of Qi, and escorted His Royal Highness the Prince and the Princess here. Poison comes to welcome you!"

When the soldiers on the city wall heard that His Royal Highness had arrived, they were all shocked. However, the biggest defender of the city was only a hundred cavalry captains, who had no right to open the city gate, so they shouted to Meng Bozhao: "It turned out to be General Meng, Please wait a moment, the little one will report to the city lord."

"Then hurry up, you have delayed His Royal Highness's entry into the city, I'm asking you!" Meng Bozhao shouted coldly.

General Yang Wu is a fifth-rank military rank, and can command 5,500 soldiers, while Libian is only a county town, and the city owner is only a seventh-rank official. Therefore, the hundred cavalry commanders guarding the city did not dare to be slighted, and sent people immediately. Notify the city lord Shendu.

City Lord's Mansion.

The city owner Shendu is meeting a VIP.

The VIP was a middle-aged scribe, wearing a large brocade robe, and standing behind him were two strong men with swords and swords. Although they did not wear armor, judging from their calloused palms, they should be members of the army. people.

"Brother Shen, how are you thinking?" The middle-aged scribe asked with a smile.

"This...?" Hesitation flashed in Shen Du's eyes.

The middle-aged scribe's expression turned cold: "Brother Shen, what are you still hesitating about, now that the state of Qi has been destroyed, the border is just an isolated city, and there are less than a thousand soldiers and horses. If you surrender to our state of Zhao now, you can be considered a meritorious minister, otherwise , when my Zhao army arrives, I may ask, Brother Shen, what are you using to resist? Just rely on your 1,000 soldiers? By then, you will be a prisoner!"

Hearing Tu Xiu's coercion and temptation, Shen Du's eyes became even more struggling.

At this moment, a personal attendant came to report: "City lord, there is a person outside the city who claims to be General Yang Wu to escort His Royal Highness the Prince and the Princess here, and ask you to pick them up from the city!"

Hearing the words of His Royal Highness the Prince and the Princess, the middle-aged scribe couldn't help but light up: "Brother Shen, your chance to make a great contribution has come, if you surrender with the head of the Prince of Qi, the king of my family will surely be delighted, but you will be promoted to an official position. Jinjue is definitely not a problem!"

"This is absolutely not possible, then I will become a sinner of Qi!" Shen Du waved his hands again and again.

"Humph!"

Tu Xiu snorted dissatisfiedly: "Shen Du, you don't want to toast, don't eat and drink fine wine, now, Qi State has not perished, where did Qi State come from, I'm not afraid to tell you, my Zhao State army is only a hundred miles away from here, at most two You will be able to attack the city in the sun, and then you will have no chance to surrender, and you, as the city lord, will lose your life and be beheaded as a military exploit!" Having said this, Tu Xiu's tone has become extraordinarily severe: "I'll ask you again, are you cooperating with your subordinate to win the prince of Qi State to surrender, or will you resist? Don't forget, your family and children are all in the city, and when the army enters the city, your family and children will also become knives. The souls of the dead, as for the residents of this city, I am afraid that they will also suffer the disaster of soldiers and horses, do you really have the heart to see your family members and your city residents die innocently!"

Tu Xiu's remarks made Shen Du sweat profusely and his face was pale.

His family members and the residents of the whole city flashed in his mind, and finally nodded and bowed to Tu Xiu: "Thank you brother Tu for reminding me that I wish to return to Zhao State, but I have a request, can I leave the prince alive? "

"Forget it! The Prince of Qi will not kill him for the time being, and leave it to the king!" This time, Tu Xiu agreed very happily, and a hint of pride flashed on the corner of his mouth.

outside the city.

Song Yan and his party were waiting for Shen Du to come and pick them up.

Only half an hour has passed, and Shendu is still in the future.

Suddenly, Song Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, but he sensed that a large number of people were approaching the city gate, and the clairvoyant eyes opened, and found that there were no less than a thousand soldiers gathered after the city gate.

His wisdom was monstrous, and after a little thought, he guessed that the city lord Shendu should have turned against the water. He ambushed his hands behind the city gate, and I am afraid he planned to catch the turtle in the urn.

For a moment, his heart sank slightly, but he decided to wait and see the changes for a while. Although there were many thousands of soldiers, he wanted to leave, but he couldn't stop him.

Besides, Linbian City is the only city in Qi State, how can you just leave it?

"Crench!"

The two city gates opened, and a pair of people quickly walked out of the city. It was Shen Du who took the lead.

"Xiaguan Shen is late to pick up the drug, and please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to atone for his sins!"

With a thud, Shen Du and everyone knelt in front of the carriage.

The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing the immature face of Prince Jiang Dan. He raised his little hand in the air and said to Shen Du, "Flat body."

"His Royal Highness Xie!" Shen Du then got up and saw Jiang Dan and Yuhu in the carriage, a trace of unbearable flashed in his eyes, but they were immediately replaced by hardness.

"His Royal Highness has ordered the mansion to be prepared, and I respectfully invite His Royal Highness to enter the city to rest."

"Sir Shen, you've worked hard!" Jiang Dan lowered the curtain again.

"Escort the prince into the city!"

Meng Bozhao gave an order, and more than fifty soldiers escorted the carriage to the city, while Tu Xiu, who was standing beside Shen Du, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, looking extremely proud.
