"Let the soldiers go up and annihilate them!" Yun Zhi looked at the white flag fluttering not far away, and was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said.

"Your Highness?" Hearing Yun Zhi's words, Yu Yao turned his head and said, "This, they are already about to descend." ”

"A group of bandits, do you know if it's a fake surrender?" Yun Zhi said: "For the sake of safety, it is better to annihilate them all." ”

"Your Highness, these people don't look like bandits, but like people from the Mongolian tribes on the steppe, do you want them to send someone over and ask them where they come from before making plans?" Zhang Lun said cautiously.

Originally, he didn't seek merit but no fault, but at this time, seeing that Liu Mingzhao and Yu Yao didn't speak, he could only speak. Like Liu Mingzhao, he has fought a lot of battles, and has been in the guard post on the front line of the Great Wall for half of his life, and has fought too much with the Mongols, so he knows at a glance that they must be from a large tribe with a lot of power, and he is worried that if he kills a nobleman of a large tribe, he will anger this big tribe and cause instability on the border. Although Da Ming was not afraid of reprisals from the Mongols, his security guard was right on the border and was very troublesome for him. For a general who is no longer motivated in his career, the less troubles the better.

"It's not uncommon for bandits to come from the big tribes of the steppe." Yun Zhi insisted on killing them all.

"Your Highness, they won't be the bandits who besieged Ganzhou City two months ago." Zhang Wuji said: "At that time, the minister led the soldiers from the city gate to kill them all the way to the Suwang Mansion, and he still knew more about the bandits, and these Mongols in front of him were different from those bandits, and they would not be the bandits who besieged Ganzhou City two months ago. ”

"Guard Zhang, are you sure?" Yun Zhi opened her big eyes and stared at Zhang Wuji and asked.

Zhang Wuji didn't dare to look up at her, in fact, everyone present didn't dare to stare at Yun Zhi, and they all lowered their heads when they answered. "I'm sure."

Yun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, Commander Liu, you send a few people to contact them, ask them all to lay down their weapons, jump off their horses, and surrender to Daming." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Liu Mingzhao agreed, and sent a commander with a few soldiers to contact.

After a while, more than 1,000 people got off their horses and threw their weapons on the ground.

"Aren't the Mongols afraid that the Ming are tricking them and slaughtering them after they surrender their weapons?" Yun Zhi was a little strange to see these Mongolians so well-behaved.

"Your Highness, the minister has the courage to say that the reason why they are willing to surrender and contact the commander of Nahu must be to say that His Highness is here, otherwise they will never agree to surrender so quickly." Yu Yao said.

"Why? Why are they willing to surrender when they are alone? ”

"Your Highness, as the princess of the Ming Dynasty, how could she do such a deception?"

Actually, the reason is very simple. For people of the princess and prince of the Ming Dynasty, it is not cost-effective to go back on their own words for the sake of more than 1,000 people. After the Mongols were expelled from the Central Plains, they also actively studied the culture of the Han Chinese and knew this. So when they heard that the princess was here, they laid down their arms with pleasure.

After a while, an old man and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child came over, walked to Yun Zhi's horse head and knelt down, and said at the same time: "Minister Mongolian Warat Department Dehuan/Mongolian Asute Department Arutai, I have seen Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Huainan of the Ming Empire!" ”

"Joy? Remember that you are the son of Mahamu? "Yun Zhi hadn't heard of Arutai's name, so she didn't react; But after hearing Tuohuan's name, he paused and asked.

"Your Highness, the minister is indeed the son of Mahamu." Tuohuan replied.

'Warat sent people to the vicinity of Lanzhou City, and it seems that they are not so deferential to the Ming Dynasty. Yun Zhi said secretly.

But this thought was just a flash of her mind, and it was more of a regret. The reason why she wanted to lead the troops to chase them out was to annihilate the bandits who besieged Ganzhou City that day and eliminate her nightmare, but in the end she found that she had misjudged them, and they were not the bandits she wanted to eliminate, of course she regretted it.

"Why did you two lead your people to the north of Lanzhou City? Didn't you know that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was here, and he wanted to plot against His Majesty! After a while, at Yun Zhi's signal, one of her female guards named Wei Lan scolded loudly.

"Your Highness, you have been wronged!" Tuhuan and Arutai shouted at the same time: "The ministers don't know that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is here, how can they plot against His Majesty?" ”

"Then why are you two leading your troops here?"

"Your Highness, the ministers are here to pursue the ghost power." The two of them said in unison.

……

……

Seeing that Arutai ordered a white flag to be raised, Tuhuan asked, "You want to surrender to the Ming army?" ”

"At this time, how can you survive without surrendering?" Arutai said: "Both ends have been blocked, and there is no way to escape; If you abandon your horse and flee from the hills on both sides, even if you escape from here, how can you return to the tribes of the steppe? ”

"It's better to surrender to the Ming army in exchange for your life." After saying this, Arutai turned his head and called several generals over and told them what to do.

Tuohuan's eyes flashed, and he touched the handle of the knife on his waist. He was assessing how high he might be able to capture Arutai in one fell swoop.

It is difficult for him to hide his identity, and even if he conceals his identity, he can't hide it if someone from their Warat Department comes, and it will definitely be known by the Ming army.

This is not a good thing for their Warat. In order to eliminate the consequences as much as possible, he wanted to capture Arutai alive, and at the same time confess Arutai's conspiracy to the Ming army, and make meritorious contributions.

But just as he called a few of his cronies over and was making preparations, Arutai ordered a few generals, turned his head and said, "Little prince, the two of us have to talk to each other, and we can't be detected by the Ming people." ”

"Right for what?"

"Why are we here?" Arutai said: "The people of the Ming Kingdom will definitely ask why we came to the north of Lanzhou City, especially their emperor is here now, and our answer is a little careless, which is the end of the head falling to the ground." ”

"How is the Taishi going to talk to the people of the Ming Kingdom?"

"Say we're here to chase Ghost Lichi. Don't talk about those schemes! As soon as those plots came out, I ordered that the mastermind of the assassination of the Ming Emperor would be executed by Ling Chi, and the tribe would also be hunted down by the Ming army; Since you know about this matter, you are also an accomplice, and you will also be executed, and the Warat tribe will not be attacked by the Ming army, but it will not be good. Arutai said.

Listening to Arutai's words, he was shocked and shocked. He realized that he had not thought it through the moment. He exposed Arutai, and Arutai could still let him go? Surely he was complicit. At that time, his own life will not be saved.

Arutai quietly let go of the hand holding the hilt of the knife, began to listen carefully to Arutai's words, and agreed that when the Ming people asked, they insisted that "we saw Gui Li Chi leading two thousand soldiers and horses to separate from this one, and came to kill Ghost Li Chi and strayed into the land of the Ming Dynasty." After finding out that we had come to the land of Daming, we decided to continue the pursuit of the Ghost Power Chisuo Department with luck, and only then did we arrive at a hill in the north of Lanzhou City. ”

……

……

"You guys are so daring! Knowing that Ghost Lichi had already led his troops into the realm of the Ming Dynasty, he still pursued it, and he didn't take the Great Ming Wei in his eyes! Yun Zhi listened to the reasons of the two of them and felt that it was reasonable, and looked at Liu Mingzhao and the others, and saw that they had no objections, so Wei Lan scolded them a few more words, and ordered the soldiers to tie them up, guard the ordinary people, and bring them back to Lanzhou City to listen to Yunxi's disposal.

They had just returned to the north bank of the Yellow River, and Yun Zhi was still talking to a few commanders, when Wei Lan suddenly gently pulled her arm: "Your Highness, it's Gonggong Xiao Lu." ”

"Little Grandpa Lu?" Yun Zhi immediately became sad when she heard the name. Xiao Lu's father-in-law is the eunuch who serves Yun Xi personally, and Yun Xi must have sent him over to ask her to go back; And calling her back in such a hurry is indispensable for a reprimand. Maybe even a grounding.

"Sister Wei, you immediately cross the river to find my sister-in-law and ask her to intercede for me." Yun Zhi watched Xiao Lu's father-in-law run towards her, and hurriedly instructed Wei Lan. Wei Lan agreed, jumped off his horse and ran towards the dock.

After a while, Xiao Lu's father-in-law ran over, took a breath and conveyed Yun Xi's order to her, and sure enough, she was asked to return to her line immediately, without hesitation. Yun Zhi didn't dare to be disobedient anymore at this time, and immediately dismounted and took a boat back.

……

……

"Aunt Mei, prepare a suit of clothes, I want to change them immediately. I still have to go to see the royal brother, and I can't delay it. Ah, Brother Huang, my sister has seen Brother Huang. Yun Zhi ran back to Xingzai, planning to change into the princess's regular clothes before going to see Yun Xi, so she ran to her house, but she didn't want to go into the house and just said a few words, she saw Yun Xi sitting on a chair with a sinking face, and said busily.

"Brother remembers, I asked you to see me as soon as you come back, but you went back to your dormitory first, according to the law of Da Ming, you are disobeying the order." Yun Xi said.

"Brother Huang," Yun Zhi was about to lean over, and said as she walked, "Sister, don't you think it's inappropriate to dress to see Brother Huang?" I want to change into a neater outfit and see you again. My sister-in-law is also there, and I have seen my sister-in-law. Miaojin agreed softly.

Yun Zhixiang leaned against Yun Xi and coquettishly coquettish, but Yun Xi shook her arm off with a flick of her hand. Yun Zhi panicked now. Yun Xi had never treated her like this before, even if she was angry with her, she hugged Yun Xi's arm and coquettishly behaved, and he scolded a few more words, but this time he even pushed her arm away, which showed that he was really angry.

She wanted to dissipate Yoon-hee, but she didn't know what to say. In a panic, he raised his head and looked at Miaojin and said, "Sister-in-law, help my sister persuade the imperial brother." ”

"Yun Zhi, you've gone too far this time." Miao Jin said: "In Ganzhou before, the city was besieged by bandits, and you just fought with the bandits, but this time you didn't have to be ordered by your imperial brother to lead the troops out of the city to fight!" ”
