Chapter 301
In the early morning of the next day, the gate of the royal capital slowly opened, and a man in a dark blue robe walked out from inside.

He was dressed in simple and clean clothes, and he did not look like a member of the royal family, nor did he tie himself out of the city.

Lei Jin led the army to stand under the city tower, looked at the approaching people from a distance, and slowly raised his hand involuntarily.

Just when he was about to give the order to attack the city, from the open city gate, a large number of people were walking towards the outside of the city.

The suspension bridge over the moat was lowered, and the man in dark blue robe walked across the suspension bridge and stopped less than ten meters in front of Lei Jin's horse. He slowly raised his hand.

A small number of officers and soldiers from Western Portugal filed out from the city gate and lined up in front of the moat. Behind the officers and soldiers were unarmed civilians, all of whom had death-defying expressions on their faces.

Wu Yao looked calmly at Lei Jin who was standing on the horse. He had been walking the border of Daxing all year round, and he knew that this man was Xiao Jingtian's capable general.

"General Lei, Spain and Portugal can surrender, but the royal family cannot be humiliated!"

"Spain and Portugal can surrender, but the royal family cannot be humiliated!"

The soldiers and civilians behind Wu Yao repeated in unison, everyone was united, and the voice was like a mountain, shaking the sky and the earth.

Wu Yao smiled sadly and said: "There are thousands of troops behind the general. Although there are few guards and people in the capital, if Daxing insists on humiliating our royal family, the whole capital will use flesh and blood as a wall to defend the last dignity of our country. !"

Facing a large number of unarmed civilians, Lei Jin couldn't help tightening his grip on the reins, "Are you threatening this general?"

If Xiao Jingtian's order had not been fulfilled, he would not have wanted to do this massacre of the city.

Wu Yao said in a loud voice: "Xipu Elementary School, in front of Daxing's iron cavalry, is there any threat to talk about. It's just that I know that General Xiao is looking for someone. I just happen to have news about this person. I just ask General Xiao to let him go." Sipu this time!"

Lei Jin sneered, "People who have broken the covenant, why should Daxing trust you?"

Wu Yao's face turned pale instantly, and he said decisively: "The nest is about to be overthrown, if the general doesn't believe it, Xipu has no other way!"

This is the retribution of their treachery. If they really can't reverse the fate of subjugation and family destruction, then he will take the news of Ning Yuezhao to his grave!

"The general is here!" Someone shouted from afar.

The soldiers behind Lei Jin quickly moved out of the way, looking as far as the eye could see, there was smoke and dust billowing in the vast field, and someone came on horseback.

Because Xipu had given up resistance, it only took one night for Xiao Jingtian to lead 5000 troops from Kaiyang Town to Xipu King.

It's just that he let 5000 people camp ten miles away, and he brought a few personal soldiers to the capital first.

Naturally, Jiang Nian would not lag behind. The two rode side by side at the moment, secretly competing with each other, but neither of them could overtake the other.

"General!" Lei Jin got off his horse and knelt down to Xiao Jingtian with all the soldiers.

"Shut up!"

Xiao Jingtian and Jiang Nian reined in their horses at the same time, Lei Jin raised his head, and happened to see Jiang Nian who was side by side with Xiao Jingtian.

Lei Jin opened his eyes wide, "His Royal Highness?"

All the soldiers present who were close to Lei Jin heard his exclamation.

The man in front of him was impeccably handsome, like a piece of natural and uncarved jade, luxurious and natural, but the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed showing a trace of indifference.

"Get up."

Xiao Jingtian looked coldly at Wu Yao standing in front of the moat, and then glanced at the soldiers and civilians behind him.

"Didn't the general say that? If the royal family of Western Portugal doesn't bind themselves out of the city and accept surrender, they will burn this place to the ground. Lei Jin, didn't you hear the general's order?"

Lei Jin knelt down again, "General, I will finally realize my mistake."

Wu Yao took a few steps forward and walked in front of Xiao Jingtian, "General, it's not that General Lei wants to disobey your order, but Wu Yao proposed a deal, and he can't make the decision."

Xiao Jingtian sneered, "You guys alone are not worthy to talk to this general!"

Just as Wu Yao was about to speak, Xiao Jingtian raised the whip in Xiao Jingtian's hand. Wu Yao was caught in the middle of his mouth by the whip, spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered back a few steps, and couldn't stabilize his figure, and knelt down on one knee, clutching his chest down.

Xiao Jingtian's eyes slowly filled with murderous intent at this moment, if it weren't for these treacherous people, how could Ning Yuezhao's whereabouts be unknown!
Even if the whole of Spain and Portugal were slaughtered, it would not be enough to appease his anger. Why should these people negotiate terms with him!

"The whole army obeys!"

"Slow down!" Jiang Nian loudly stopped Xiao Jingtian's order to slaughter the city.

Xiao Jingtian looked at Jiang Nian and squinted his eyes, "His Royal Highness, Xiao, as the commander of the Northwest Army, please don't interfere with the affairs before the army!"

Didn't Jiang Nian feel that Ning Yuezhao's disappearance was all his fault?He is going to let Jiang Nian see how he rescued him!

Wu Yao opened his mouth to speak, and blood overflowed from his mouth uncontrollably.

Jiang Nian got off his horse and walked slowly towards Wu Yao.

Following Jiang Nian's imperial guards dismounted quickly, and followed him in the posture of a guard.

Xiao Jing had to grit his teeth due to the weather, and Jiang Nian stood in front, so it was difficult for him to give orders.

Jiang Nian took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a pill, and handed it to Wu Yao's lips.

Wu Yao himself knew medical skills, and the fragrance from the pill told him that it was a good healing medicine.

At this moment, the blood in his chest was churning, he couldn't speak, so he could only swallow the pill first.

Jiang Nian ignored Xiao Jingtian who was behind him, and said in a voice that only he and Wu Yao could hear: "You kidnapped her."

Who is she referring to, needless to say.

After Wu Yao took the medicine, a sense of coolness spread through the viscera, and the turbulence of qi and blood was relieved a lot in an instant.

He just heard Lei Jin call the noble man in front of him the emperor's husband, so he is the husband of Empress Daxing.Although Ning Yuezhao asked him to send a message to Xiao Jingtian, but now that her husband is in front of her eyes, wouldn't it be more appropriate to tell the imperial husband than to tell Xiao Jingtian.What's more, now Xiao Jingtian can't listen to anything at all.

"Yes." There was a hint of regret on Wu Yao's face.

"She's in Beiqi." Jiang Nian still used an affirmative tone instead of guessing.

Wu Yao pursed her lips and nodded, "She has something for me to bring to...you."

Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows. Ah Zhao definitely didn't know that he would come to the Northwest at this time. I'm afraid it was Xiao Jingtian who she asked Wu Yao to pass on the message.Fortunately, I came here in person, otherwise, with this reckless man's temperament, Sipu is now a purgatory on earth, and Ah Zhao's news will be delayed!
Wu Yao saw that Jiang Nian's people were all around, and both of them deliberately lowered their volumes, and they were about to tell what happened.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, arrows were suddenly fired from the city tower, and the targets were Jiang Nian and others.

Jiang Nian quickly drew out the soft sword at his waist, swung it and knocked down the cold arrows like dense rain.

The imperial guards behind him also quickly blocked Jiang Nian and waved away the arrows with him.

Xiao Jingtian was in front of the army, and soldiers holding huge shields had quickly built a line of defense in front of him.

"Protect the imperial husband!" Despite some dissatisfaction, Xiao Jingtian still couldn't let Jiang Nian have an accident at this time.

Soon, the soldiers with shields expanded their circle and protected Jiang Nian and others.

Wu Yao, who was still standing by the moat, looked up at the tower, but the target of the arrow avoided him, and he shouted loudly toward the tower: "Stop!"

At this time, a woman appeared between the walls of the city tower. It was Princess Longna. She said loudly: "You despicable and shameless Han people have cheated me of many good horses and beautiful jade from Western Portugal under the guise of an exchange market. Now you still want to humiliate me!" My royal family? Dreaming!"

After speaking, she ordered the archers to continue shooting arrows.

Wu Yao was short of breath, so he could only run back to the city and climb up the tower.

"Stop it!" Wu Yao approached Takina angrily, "Do you really want the century-old foundation of Western Portugal to be destroyed?"

Long Na turned around, raised her hand and slapped Wu Yao, "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking, you fell in love with that Empress Daxing, and you didn't dedicate her to Beiqi at all, that's why you caused the current disaster!"

Wu Yao turned his head away from her slap, and he smiled sadly, "In the eyes of the princess, is this the subordinate?"

Takina's heartbeat was thrown out of rhythm by his weak smile, she was about to open her mouth to say something, but felt that the whole tower shook violently.She was unstable and fell into Wu Yao's arms.

Wu Yao supported Long Na and looked down the tower.

Xiao Jingtian was surrounded by a huge shield in front of him, no matter how the archers shot their arrows, it was just a waste of arrows.And just now, when he was talking to Long Na, Xiao Jingtian ordered someone to carry out the trebuchet.

Three trebuchets were aimed at the tower of the capital, and the basket of one of the trebuchets was already empty. The tower shook just now because Xiao Jingtian ordered to attack the city with boulders.

Long Na held Wu Yao's arm tightly, "It's over..."

The city wall of the royal capital was built when the country was founded, because it has aged without war for many years, so it can't stand the attack of huge stones.

Wu Yao pushed Long Na away, "If you hadn't ordered people to shoot arrows just now, I would have persuaded Daxing Emperor to retreat!"

Long Na wanted to say something more, but Wu Yao had already pushed her away and jumped onto the battlement, "Husband Daxing, would you still like to hear Wu Yao's words!"

Jiang Nian quickly moved to Xiao Jingtian's side, and said in a low voice, "This person has the information we need, stop attacking the city immediately."

Xiao Jingtian looked at him with raised eyebrows, "The Spanish Portuguese don't keep their promises, so you still believe him?"

Jiang Nian said: "Destroying Xipu is like crushing an ant to Daxing. What's the harm in listening to him? It's better to be wrong than to miss it!"

Xiao Jingtian raised his hand to tell the soldiers not to start the trebuchet.

Jiang Nian asked the shield soldiers to retreat, and walked slowly towards the tower under the protection of several imperial guards.

The soldiers below the tower knew Jiang Nian's identity. No one dared to stop Jiang Nian for a while, and let him climb the tower smoothly, because of his power and the awe-inspiring guards of the forbidden army.

Wu Yao pointed to the double-eave building on the wall platform, signaling Jiang Nian to come inside.

The layout in the double-eave building is simple, with only one table and four chairs.

What they want to talk about cannot be known to outsiders, so this double-eaved building is the most suitable place to talk.

"That's how things are. Now she is the young lady of the Xu family in the North Qi army, and she is fine for the time being."

After Jiang Nian heard the whole story, his brows became serious, "I am trapped in the enemy's camp, and my identity will be exposed at any time. How can I be safe?"

 There will be updates tonight, thank you everyone.
