Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Page 431

Jiagu Xienu himself was entangled by Shi Jin who was thrusting obliquely, and couldn't escape.

After two rounds, the warrior on the left wing of the Jiagu tribe was also picked off by Yue Fei.

After the three warriors from the Jiagu tribe fell off their horses, although they immediately got up and fought forward desperately, none of them could match the three of Ximen Qing when they were riding on the horses. Chance?

In a short while, the three samurai were beaten black and blue, with wounds all over their bodies.

However, seeing that Jiagu Xienu was still fighting hard with Shi Jin, the three Jurchen warriors of the Jiagu tribe gritted their teeth and refused to back down.

"I admit defeat! There is no need to fight any more!" Jiagu Xie Nu shot feignedly, withdrew from the battle group, and simply surrendered.

Jiagu Xienu fought Shi Jin for more than a dozen rounds, and the fight was inextricable, but his three subordinates couldn't stop Jiao Ting and Yue Fei.

At this time, Ximen Qing, the main general of the opponent, didn't even make a move. The situation of victory and defeat was too obvious, and there was really no need to make his soldiers suffer.

Therefore, Jiagu Xienu saw that he was invincible, so he had no choice but to put up the battle and admit defeat.

Wanyan Zongxiong rode up to Jiagu Xienu, and sighed to him, "Hey, why bother? Why didn't you listen to my advice?"

Jiagu Xienu looked back at the smiling Wanyan Wulu on the stage, and replied bitterly: "Mu Lianghu, if I don't give it a try, I will always feel unwilling! This time I am completely convinced. Uluh picked a good son-in-law."

Wanyan Zonghan also rode to Ximen Qing's side and expressed his congratulations to Ximen Qing.

With the emperor Wanyan Aguda publicly announcing the final result of the martial arts competition, Ximen Qing finally won the chance to marry the eldest princess Wanyan Wulu.

The emperor Wanyan Aguda told the nobles on the stage that three days later, it will be a good day, and the eldest princess Wanyan Wulu and her son-in-law Ximenqing will marry in Huining City and hold a grand wedding ceremony.

All the ministries in the polo field cheered together when they heard the news.

The martial arts contest to recruit relatives came to an end in a joyous and peaceful atmosphere.

After seeing Emperor Wanyan Aguda, Empress Tang Kuo, and princess Wanyan Wulu, Ximenqing took his brothers and left the polo field amidst the cheers and blessings of the crowd, and returned to his camp.

At dusk that day, Wanyan Zongjun, Wanyan Zongxiong and Wanyan Zonghan came to Ximen Qing's camp together, and wanted to ask for a spoonful of wedding wine first.

Ximen Qing ordered his subordinates to kill a few sheep and roast them, and warmly treated Yan Zongjun and the other three.

Jiao Ting, Shi Jin, Huangfu Duan, Yue Fei and others were also present at the banquet.

The three of Wanyan Zongjun were full of praise for the martial arts of Ximen Qing and others, and Ximen Qing also expressed his gratitude to the three of them for their help.

Wanyan Zongjun and the other three were in charge of hosting this Martial Arts Competition, and they revealed a lot of information to Ximen Qing in advance, which made Ximen Qing fully prepared.

The strength of the four Ximen Qing is the key to be able to defeat the challengers from various ministries this time, but the competition rules designed by Wanyan Zongxiong and Wanyan Zonghan also helped Ximen Qing, preventing him from being challenged by the warriors of various ministries.

It can be said that the three of Wanyan Zongjun also secretly helped a lot.

After the mutton was cooked, Wan Yan Zongjun left the table again, and after a while, he brought back a distinguished guest for Ximen Qing.

This person is none other than Tang Kuo Talan from Tang Kuo Department.

Chapter 7 and One End Yan Zonghan's Invitation

Tang Kuo, who had broken his bow during the day, walked lazily into Ximen Qing's camp, and met Ximen Qing with a smile, just like old friends meeting each other.

At this moment, there is no trace of hostility in the martial arts arena.

After drinking for three rounds, Ximen Qing and Tang Kuo Talan had a lot of open-minded chats. Only then did Shi Jin, Jiao Ting and the others understand that Tang Kuo Talan's participation in the Martial Arts Competition was entrusted by Wanyan Wulu and Wanyan Zongjun to help him. Ximen Qing cleared some obstacles.

If the Tang Kuo tribe had not already decided to secretly support Ximen Qing, how could the Wanyan Zongjun brothers and sisters arrange Ximen Qing's camp next to the Tang Kuo tribe camp and accept the protection of the Tang Kuo tribe.

Tang Kuo Talan helped Ximen Qing defeat Pucha Shijianu, clearing away a major enemy for him.It's a pity that he failed to suppress Jiagu Xienu in the second round, so Tang Kuo Talan had no choice but to break the bow in his hand, pretending to make a mistake, and withdrew from the martial arts tournament.

Therefore, it seemed that there were many competitors in this martial arts competition, but under the favorable competition system and the support of Tang Kuobu, Ximenqing actually only faced two opponents.

If he couldn't win in this way, he could only blame Ximen Qing for his lack of strength, and he couldn't blame others.

Now it not only maintains the tradition, but also makes the ministries have nothing to say, and makes Ximenqing and Wanyan Wulu's lover finally get married.

Wanyan Zongjun, Wanyan Zongxiong, Wanyan Zonghan, and Tang Kuo Talan are considered to have completed their meritorious deeds and lived up to Wanyan Wulu's entrustment.

In fact, in a sense, the four of them also relieved the troubles in the heart of the emperor Wanyan Aguda who loved his daughter.

It's just that everyone is tacit about this meaning.

Ximen Qing looked at the important ministers of the Jin Kingdom around him who were doing their best to help him, and he was secretly proud of himself. This is how helpful I am, Ximen Qing, a senior official!

Tonight's dinner can be described as a celebration banquet for Ximen Qing, Wanyan Zongjun and others.Everyone speaks freely like their own brothers.

After drinking a few rounds of wine, Yan Zonghan suddenly said to Ximen Qing: "Brother Ximen Qing, you have a lot of talents under your command, would you like to go west with me and make contributions?"

After hearing this, Ximen Qing's heart trembled, and he was half sober.

Ximenqing remembers that in the past, Wanyan Zonghan next to him later became the Grand Marshal of the Jin Army and the commander-in-chief of the West Route Army. No.1 in the Golden Army.

Why, is Wanyan Zonghan going to lead the army to the west so soon?

Under Ximen Qing's questioning, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongxiong told Ximen Qing why the emperor Wanyan Aguda would announce that he would marry the eldest princess three days later at the Martial Arts Recruitment Conference. expedition.

Ever since Yeluyu saw the fall of gold, the kings and ministers of the Jin Kingdom had learned a lot of the inside story of the Liao Kingdom, and they could see more clearly the weak nature of the Khitan of the Liao Kingdom.

Under the active planning of the main combat faction headed by Wanyan Zonghan, the emperor Wanyan Aguda has decided to attack the Zhongjing Dading Mansion in the Liao Kingdom again.

The purpose of calling the Jurchen ministers to Ningcheng this time is not only to observe the eldest princess Wanyan Wulu's martial arts contest to recruit relatives, but also to unify the forces of various ministries and launch a new attack on the Liao Kingdom.

Because of the maritime alliance with the Song State, before Ximenqing arrived in Huining City, the Jin State had already sent envoys to Bianliang City, the capital of the Song State, and agreed with the Emperor of Song Dynasty on the date of sending troops together.

It can be said that the Dajin Kingdom is sharpening its sword and rushing to Khitan.

Just at this time, something happened to the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, which was already occupied by the Kingdom of Jin.

Yesterday, Lu Yanlun, who stayed behind in Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, sent an emergency military report.

After Yelu Yu, who stayed behind in Zhongjing of the Liao Kingdom, saw the fall of gold, Yelu Yanxi, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom, urgently appointed the brave Khitan general Yelu Mage who was stationed in Raozhou to stay behind in Zhongjing and command the Khitan army in Zhongjing.

At the same time, the Khitan army, which was defeated and scattered along the way when the Jin army attacked the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, Liao Kingdom, gradually gathered under the defeated general Xiao Yixue.

Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom Yelu Yanxi appointed Xiao Yixue, the governor of the Northeast Road, to stay in Shangjing, and asked him to lead his troops to advance to the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing and recover the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing with Yelu Mage's army.

With Xiao Yixue and Yelu Mage's army under pressure, the Khitan general Yelu Tat, who had already surrendered to the Dajin Kingdom, had no ambitions, and wanted to cooperate with the inside and the outside, and opened the gate of the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing to let the Liao army enter the city.

Lu Yanlun, the leader of the Han army in Linhuang Mansion, did not choose to rebel with Yeluta Buye to return to the Liao Kingdom this time, but led the Han army to fight against the Khitan army in the city, and drove all the Khitan troops out of Linhuang Mansion .

Yeluta was defeated by Lu Yanlun, lost control of Linhuang Mansion, led the remnants of the defeated generals to flee in a hurry, and joined Yelu Mage's army.

Xiao Yixue and Yelu Ma's army then surrounded Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing.

While Lu Yanlun held fast to the city, he sent someone to ask for help from the Jin army.
