"Gao'er, are you afraid?"

The middle-aged lady looked towards the outside of the city where the war was raging and said calmly.

Her voice is like a trickling stream, making people feel wet, but without losing her majesty.

The young man shook his head and said in a childish but firm voice: "My mother is not afraid, and my sons and ministers are not afraid either."

The middle-aged woman stroked the boy's bun and said:

"Then let's leave the city."

The young man had firm eyes, nodded, raised his head and shouted.

"Princess Zishu, for the sake of the people of Xiqi, comes out of the city to negotiate peace!!"

After the young man finished speaking, there was a burst of crying in front of the palace gate.

Xiqi City Gate opened a side door.

The young man supported the middle-aged woman and walked towards the side door under the concerned eyes of the Xiqi military and civilian fathers.

Xiqi City was immediately filled with people kneeling on their knees, crying and shouting in unison:

"Congratulations to Princess Zishu!"

At this time.

At the end of the street where Xiqi soldiers and people were kneeling, an old woman with gray hair came out.

Behind her stood a dozen handsome young men with similar looks.

The eldest one exudes scholarly spirit.

The old woman with gray hair in a bun blocked the middle-aged woman's way, looked at her quietly and said:

"Concubine Shu, what do you want to do when you leave?"

The middle-aged woman also looked at her and said calmly:

"In response to the rebels' request, we went out of the city to discuss peace and retreat the 200,000 enemy soldiers for our people in Xiqi."

The old woman looked at her for a long time and said:

"There are 200,000 rebels outside this gate. My husband dare not retreat here. How can you, a woman, say such big words?"

"Your trip is very dangerous. If you don't come back..."

Middle-aged woman: "Then I'll never come back."

The old woman stared at her for a long time, trying to discern something from her eyes, but in the end she found nothing and said calmly:

"I am Queen Xiqi. If you want to talk about anything, I am the one to go to. Why did the rebels designate you as a concubine to go out of the city on behalf of the king?"

"Sister, can you tell me the reason?"

The middle-aged woman said quietly:

"What the rebels want to talk to is not you and me, women, but the forces behind us."

"You have the Xin family, but your country and family were destroyed hundreds of years ago, while my Chengtang foundation is at its peak."

"Is it useful for the rebels to find my sister?"

After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she passed by the old woman and continued to say calmly:

"Sister Si, please come back."

"Don't you think Mr. Xin wanted to get rid of me a long time ago? Why should you pretend to care about your sister's life and death?"

"Emperor Yi returns as his sister, a match made in heaven."

"As everyone knows, my father, Emperor Yi, married me to Ji Chang. It was a match made in heaven. When Ji Chang married me, he not only regarded himself as a small country, but also followed all the etiquette."

"I am a concubine, but I have robbed you, the queen of hair, of the glory you deserve."

"You hate me very much."

After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, her clothes and sleeves were flying, and she walked out through the door holding a sword.

"you!"

A coldness flashed across Tai Si's eyes. When she saw the middle-aged woman walking out of the city gate, she snorted coldly:

"The city gate is locked."

"Princess Zishu is willing to sacrifice herself and lead out the rebel leader for the sake of the people of Xiqi. This is a great cause of justice!"

"Once the peace talks begin, we will take this opportunity to kill the rebel leader."

"The rebels are nothing more than a bunch of chickens and dogs. If they kill the rebel leader who calls himself Passerby B, they will naturally fall apart."

"yes!"

After Tai Si finished speaking, the dozen or so young men behind her clasped their fists and left, walking to the city wall and giving secret orders.

After Taisi finished speaking, she said to herself:

"Since sister Zishu wants to die, don't blame me."

After Tai Si finished speaking, several men with tawny skin and deep-set eyes walked out of the darkness.

They don't look like the people of Xiqi. They are foreigners from nowhere. They wear long skirts and handkerchiefs, and have khaki turbans on their heads. They clasped their hands together and nodded:

"The Queen is decisive in killing and should be the mother of the country."

Taisi looked at a few people with alert eyes and said calmly:

"I hope that some of you have the ability to make our Xiqi soldiers fearless of life and death, and not afraid of the rebels."

Several people had Virgin-like smiles on their faces, holding a bottle in their hands, with a few drops of water in the bottle, and sprinkled it in the air.

The water in the bottle turned into thousands of Brahma lights and enveloped Xiqi City.

The four people were sitting in the city, with their hands clasped together, and a low chanting sound came from their mouths:

"When you meet a Brahmin, you should wish all living beings to practice the holy life forever and avoid all evils."

"If you believe in me, Brahmin, you have no fear of death or injury; if you see me, Brahmin, you have no fear or pain..."

The low sound of chanting quickly spread throughout Xiqi City, and the Xiqi soldiers suddenly felt that the world was changing.

Their eyes were blurred and they were mumbling to themselves. They soon regained their clarity and became high-spirited.

Tai Si nodded and said calmly: "Western Taoism is indeed extraordinary."

The four men in turbans kept chanting sutras with their eyes half-closed, and their expressions grew darker with each verse.

After a quarter of an hour, they stopped chanting, stood up, and showed indifferent smiles:

"Wise Queen, the wonderful blessings can last for three days."

"In three days, Sergeant Xiqi will fight one against ten, and he will not be afraid of death."

"Queen, rest assured, the rebels cannot attack."

Taisi looked at the soldiers around her. Their eyes were firm, but there was an indescribable hollowness and numbness in their eyes.

She murmured to herself:

"As long as we can defend the city, everything can be done cheaply."

"Husband, I have tried my best. I hope you will come back soon."

After speaking, she looked at the four masters who called themselves Western Bharata, and finally smiled on her face, saying:

"Princess Shu used her body as bait to lure the rebel leader, and then issued a secret signal, ordering the Xiqi soldiers to fire arrows at random, and died together with the rebel leader."

"She used her daughter's body to resolve the crisis in Xiqi and should be regarded as a heroine."

"Follow me to the city wall to see Princess Shu off."

…

at this time.

In front of the rebels.

Passerby Yi held the secret decree that had just been sent from Chaoge in his hand, his eyes full of awe and reverence.

"General, the princess is coming out."

At this time, a general suddenly spoke.

Passerby B nodded.

He raised his eyes and saw a graceful middle-aged woman holding a long sword and leading a young man out of the Xiqi King's City.

She has an extraordinary temperament between her brows, and she shows no fear in the face of an army of 200,000 people.

Passerby B raised his hand and said loudly:

"Generals, listen to the order and send the order to the whole army!"

"From now on, the first military order of the entire army is to protect the safety of my great Shang Wangji!"

The secret decree in Passerby B's hand was rustling in the wind, with simple words written on it that only they could understand.

"The late Emperor Yi married Wang Ji Zishu to Ji Chang as his concubine. On the pretext of negotiating peace, you lured Wang Ji and Young Master Ji Gao out of the royal city."

"After Wang Ji leaves the city, Queen Xiqi may take the opportunity to kill her quickly."

"You must protect Wang Ji's safety."

"Subsequently, in the name of great righteousness, he supported Wang Ji's son Ji Gao to ascend the throne, and built a city and country east of Qishan Mountain."
