That Person In That River and Lake Chapter 46

  Chapter 46 Willing to die for the people

Ning Qing is an elderly man. Not only does he walk very slowly, but he also seems to be struggling. The simple knife in his hand is more than three feet thick, one finger thick, and weighs at least ten catties, but he holds it very steadily. Get up and walk in step by step.

When Tang Yun saw Ning Qing, she frowned, because she felt endless murderous aura from Ning Qing, as well as a determination that shouldn't appear at Ning Qing's age. She didn't doubt that Ning Qing would be bad for her, but feel puzzled.

   "Old Ning, what are you doing?"

Ning Qing is a great practitioner, and has enough capital to make Tang Yun treat each other with courtesy, not to mention that Tang Yun was escorted by Ning Qing all the way when she went to Beimo, and she owed a lot of favors. History, Tang Yun had to treat it with caution.

Ning Qing bowed slightly to salute, he is a courtier, and he always maintains great respect for the royal family at all times, even now that he is full of murderous intent, he still does not forget etiquette, and slowly said: "Princess Qi, old minister, I am going to kill people! "

Tang Yun's eyelids twitched, and she hurriedly said: "Old Ning, I know that you and Gu Qingci have become enemies. According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, maybe it is your life and death, but you are a member of the court, and so is he. You must follow the rules, you cannot go Kill him, and even though Gu Qingci contradicted me, he is not guilty of death, I forbid you to kill him."

  Ning Qing shook his head and said: "The veteran is not going to kill Gu Qingci, but someone else."

   Tang Yun was taken aback for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Didn't you kill Gu Qingci?"

Ning Qing nodded lightly, and said: "Although Gu Qingci and I have become enemies, and I really want to kill him, but now, I will definitely not kill him. On the contrary, if necessary, I can also replace him. to die."

  Tang Yun asked in surprise, "What does Ning Lao mean?"

  Ning Qing said: "Princess, there are over ten thousand soldiers in Beimo. Just outside the Qiling post, there are five thousand cavalry, including two thousand heavy cavalry. Do you know what this means?"

   "What, there are more than ten thousand soldiers, and there are heavy cavalry!" Tang Yun was shocked, and stood up from the bed at once, and said urgently: "Beimo has another purpose, and it's not just to fight grass valley!"

Ning Qing nodded and said: "Hu Yulie was originally the main combat faction. Now that he controls Beimo, he will invade my Daxia sooner or later. Therefore, I guess that these ten thousand soldiers are the vanguard troops, mainly to test our Great Xia's reaction."

"Ten thousand people can attack if they advance, and they can leave directly when they retreat. They use the name of Dacaogu to let us relax our vigilance. If our Great Xia remains the same as in previous years and chooses to turn a blind eye, they will immediately Incarnate as a vanguard, directly attacking the city and conquering the territory, we will be caught off guard, so now, we must block them, and princess, you must go to Weicheng in person, notify the local defenders, and come to reinforce Gu Qingci."

   Tang Yun's face was pale, very ugly, and she said seriously: "Old Ning, are you sure?"

Ning Qing nodded, and said: "Ninety-nine is not far from ten. I had already guessed before, but I was not sure. Seeing Gu Qingci's reaction today, I think he guessed it, so he directly took all the soldiers in Changling County They have all gone, and, according to my inquiries, he also made the gangs and aristocratic families in Changling County prepare to help at any time."

  A trace of disbelief flashed in Tang Yun's eyes, and she said, "Mr. Ning, you said that Gu Qingci knew the seriousness of the matter, but he still went without hesitation. This...how is it possible?"

Ning Qing sighed for a long time, and said: "I didn't really believe it at first, but just now I went out to inquire about Gu Qingci, and found that my previous guess was wrong, he is not what I thought Arrogant and domineering, on the contrary, he is a good official, a good official who has won the hearts of the people, a true gentleman who loves the people like a son, and is willing to take risks for the people!"

   "But he..." Tang Yun felt unbelievable when she heard that Ning Qing had such high regard for Gu Qingci, and said, "Is that really the case, then, Old Ning, do you still want to kill him?"

Ning Qing nodded, and said: "Only with the support of the people in Changling County, can he defend Changling County and gather the people to fight against Beimo, so he can't die, at least not now. Well, you absolutely can't abandon my Daxia's safety for the sake of personal grievances, so the old minister would rather die than protect him."

   Speaking of this, Ning Qing suddenly knelt down and knelt down in front of Tang Yun, so frightened that Tang Yun hurriedly protected Ning Qing, wondering: "Old Ning, what are you doing?"

Ning Qing is a great practitioner, but Tang Yun is just an ordinary person. If Ning Qing doesn't take the initiative to get up, Tang Yun can't help Ning Qing up, so she can only maintain one movement, saying: "Old Ning, get up quickly, Let's talk slowly!"

   Ning Qing shook his head slightly, and said: "It's too late, the veteran must catch up with Gu Qingci as soon as possible, there are two innate warriors in Beimo, Gu Qingci can't stop him, if the veteran goes late, Gu Qingci will undoubtedly die."

Tang Yun was about to say something, but Ning Qing interrupted directly, saying: "Princess, when I was a child, my whole family was killed by Beimo people. Do you know that at that time, I was so helpless. I hate the injustice, and I hate it even more. At that time, I failed to meet an official who dared to fight the Beimo people for the sake of the people."

"Now, seeing the people in Changling County, I really envy them. They have met a truly respectable county magistrate. There is such a parent official who is willing to take the lead and stand on the battlefield with a sword for the common people. And I , Ning Qing, a great cultivator, there is no reason to hide behind, I am worried that after a hundred years, I will have no face to face the relatives who died in front of me."

   "But, princess," Ning Qing slammed his head on the floor, blood was soaked on his forehead at that moment, he choked up and said, "I implore the princess, for the sake of thousands of people, you must go to Weicheng yourself."

   "Old Ning..."

Tang Yun hesitated. Weicheng is the first military defense line in the north of Daxia. It is three or four hundred miles away from Changling County. If she agrees, it means that she is likely to die on the road. Beimo must be deployed on this road. There is a net of heaven and earth.

However, if she doesn't go, and only relies on the people sent by Gu Qingci, it is impossible to call for reinforcements immediately, because Weicheng will definitely send troops after several confirmations, and by then, it will be too late. It was too late.

"Princess..." Ning Qing kowtowed again, with a hoarse voice, and said, "The old minister is deeply favored by the emperor, and he shouldn't have asked the princess to go into trouble, but the old minister really couldn't bear to see thousands of people fall into the abyss. When this is over, the old minister will definitely apologise with death!"

"No, Old Ning," Tang Yun hurriedly said, "Old Ning, I promise you that you will live a good life, but what I am worried about now is that it is a long way to go to Weicheng, and I don't have enough people. I'm afraid it won't make it at all."

   "This..." Ning Qing was stunned.

  At this moment, a soldier came in from outside the door, cupped his hands and said: "Princess Qi, there is a woman outside the inn who claims to be sent by Master Gu Qingci, please see the princess!"
