293 dead
Looking from a distance, the man had an arrow in his chest and blood was flowing out of his heart. More importantly, his eyes were closed tightly and he was obviously dead...
The man fell under a tree. After all, Jiang Wu was far away and couldn't see anything clearly, but she could hear that the person who died should be a Beirong man. There were four envoys from Beirong this time, and there was another
It is Prince Yeluye.
One of the envoys stepped forward to inspect the body, turned around, and said sternly: "Daye kills my people! Blood debt must be paid with blood!"
The envoy raised his arms and shouted. The Beirong warriors who had gathered together to rest all picked up their weapons and stood up. The danger could be said to be imminent. Next to Jiang Wu was Song Qi. At this time, Song Qi's face did not look good either. She
He whispered: "If trouble occurs later, you must remember to stay away from here. Swords don't have eyes."
Jiang Wu pursed his lips and frowned slightly. This matter was indeed a big deal. Beirong people died on the spring hunting ground in Daye. If this matter was handled slightly carelessly, it would affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries.
important matters.
The distance was a bit far, and Jiang Wu couldn't see clearly what the corpse was like under the tree. She didn't know what the discussion between the Beirong envoy and King An was about. The current chaos seemed to be under control for the time being, but suddenly,
I don’t know what happened, but the Beirong people suddenly shouted, and then someone quickly set up a bow and arrow. Before Jiang Wu could realize what happened, someone had already shot an arrow at the seats where the female relatives were sitting.
!
There were screams from the female family members. Jiang Wu's seat was already close to the front, but now it was like a living target. Fortunately, there was Song Qi next to her. After a few times, Jiang Wu noticed something was wrong. The arrow was clearly aimed at
Here she comes!
When Jiang Wu was attacked again, Fu Heng came rushing towards him on horseback: "Stop!"
A shadow was cast in front of Jiang Wu's eyes. Fu Heng was riding a tall horse, with sharp sword eyebrows and a stern expression. Even if he was alone, he had the aura of a thousand troops.
"Zheng——" There was a sound piercing the air, and a black arrow shot straight towards Jiang Wu. Fu Heng's eyes moved slightly, and he raised his hand to block the arrow. The arrow was blocked by his knife. Then, he looked
Looking at Song Qi, he took the bow from her hand and said, "Lend it to me."
Fu Heng narrowed his eyes, picked up the arrow that had just fallen on the ground, nocked the bow and shot——
Several people in Beirong wanted to fish in troubled waters. At this time, as long as they stabbed Jiang Wu, they would definitely destroy the diplomatic relations between the two countries. However, they did not expect that there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and a sharp arrow was stuck directly at his feet.
It was only two inches away from his toes!
The man recognized that this arrow was the one that shot his meal, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Fu Heng put down his bow and arrow and said loudly: "Yelunye, do you, Beirong, want to start a war with me, Daye?"
There was some blood on Yeluye's face, and he looked a little violent, "I don't want to start a war, but I can't let the prince of Daye kill my people indiscriminately!"
"Kill your people?" Fu Heng walked down from the seat without looking at the corpse.
"Yes! In broad daylight, everyone is watching. The arrow on the corpse has a name engraved on it! This clearly has the word "Duan" written on it!"
Fu Heng then took a few steps forward to look at the corpse. There was blood at the corner of the mouth. The corpse was indeed wearing the clothes of a Beirong warrior. He had been hit by an arrow in the chest. There was dark red blood on his heart, and there were some scratches on his hands and feet.
, maybe he was injured during the hunt just now.
King Duan came over, his face a little pale. Although his martial arts was not as good as his two brothers, he was not a fool. How could such a big mistake happen?
He looked at Fu Heng with a somewhat pitiful look. After all, there were Beirong people here, so he couldn't say much, so he said tactfully: "My king... I really don't know what is going on."
Fu Heng lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Then he suddenly said: "This person is dead, but the cause of death is still unknown. If it is confirmed that we in Daye are indeed at fault, we will also give you Beirong a reasonable solution."
Yeluye sneered: "The evidence is right in front of you, what else is there to say?"
Fu Heng did not answer him. On the contrary, he walked to the seat where the women were sitting. Jiang Wu frowned slightly, perhaps thinking deeply about something. Fu Heng said, "What do you think?"
Jiang Wu said: "There must be something fishy about this matter. It's rest time now. Even if King Duan loses his mind and goes crazy, he won't kill anyone at this time."
Song Qi heard her voice, "Could it be a trap set by the Beirong people?"
"No." Jiang Wu shook his head: "If possible, I would like to see the body."
…
While several people were talking, the emperor's assistant also arrived.
Jiang Wu felt that the emperor must really want to scold his mother now. He was so old, and he was called back after taking only two steps.
This time, he arrived in a simple carriage and on a chariot. He did not put on a gorgeous show of support.
The chariot is surrounded by a fragrant wood frame, with hollow dragon patterns carved on the railings, a dragon seat in the middle, four pillars carved with tiger claws and dragons, surrounded by reliefs of auspicious clouds, a bright yellow satin curtain swaying slightly in the wind, the emperor wearing bright yellow uniforms, sitting
On the chariot, wherever they went, they all fell to their knees.
Jiang Wu followed the crowd and knelt perfunctorily. Fu Heng walked to the front, clasped his fists and saluted, and explained the whole story. The emperor's eyes swept over the kneeling people, and then - fixed on
On Jiang Wu's body.
Jiang Wu had a sudden heart attack.
Yeluye gave a half salute to the emperor, and then said: "This tribute is intended to reflect the friendly relations between Beirong and Daye. We are here to establish friendly relations with Daye. To show our sincerity, we only brought more than a dozen people with us."
A brave warrior came to participate in the spring hunting, but he did not bring any soldiers, but..." He paused, his tone full of pathos.
"But our warrior died on this spring hunting ground while he was resting! I kept my words to the people in Daye, but if this matter were spread back to Beirong, it would inevitably chill my father's heart."
Yeluye had a good mind. He first expressed his loyalty, then talked about the man's death, and finally added an implicit threat.
For some reason, the emperor kept looking at Jiang Wu, but Jiang Wu lowered his head and didn't see it.
Although the emperor was already very old, he still maintained his majesty when he spoke: "Our country in Daye is rich and powerful, so naturally we will not bully you Beirong. This man died in our Daye, so why don't we let our people in Daye do an autopsy? As long as
After examining the body, the truth will naturally come out."
Yeluye and the envoy behind him looked at each other, and the envoy said anxiously: "Your Majesty! Why do you need to conduct an autopsy? We saw it with our own eyes. Your prince Daye's name is written on this arrow!"
"Oh?" The emperor narrowed his eyes. He was obviously smiling when he spoke, but his words were filled with an undeniable coldness, "So?"
