Bondage

"Master Song, everything is ready, do you want to go?"

Song Lan'an turned to look at hundreds of wooden boxes with simple and unique shapes, and ordered them to be sent to the front of the line.He himself stood there looking at the gate of Shangjing for a long time before turning around and getting into the carriage.

Everyone galloped all the way, but even when they arrived at the Suhe River, it was already spring time.

There were countless casualties in the battle between the two countries, and the Su River was even more stained with blood and bones, turning rusty red.Now that there is a truce, the sky is covered by the black smoke after burning, and there is no blueness to be seen.

Song Lan'an supported Shang Chong, who was seriously ill due to the long journey, and got off the carriage.

"Boss, can you still hold on?"

Shang Chong waved his hands, but he was speechless.

"My lords, please come inside."

A general in armor led several adults into the tent of the Chinese army. Seeing the blood in their eyes, Shen Qianyu stood up with difficulty.

"The prince has worked hard."

Song Lan'an looked at Shen Qianyu, who was covered with injuries and sunken cheeks, and only had a pair of shining eyes, and smiled lightly.

"The two countries are at war, and both of them are seriously injured. It's just that we have been exhausted for many years, and we can't last as long as Nanqing."

"It's not His Royal Highness' fault."

Shang Chong also nodded, and said with difficulty: "Your Highness has done an excellent job, just like Emperor Taizu."

Several courtiers all appreciated and echoed, Shen Qianyu walked up to everyone and kowtowed to the ground.Song Lan'an stepped forward to help, but Shen Qianyu knelt down on the ground and began to cry bitterly.

Zuo Zhengyan said with a smile: "Your Highness is really a man of temperament."

Signaling Wan Xiao to help the crown prince up, Shang Chong said, "Since we have arrived at Suhe, let's get down to business today."

He is old, and he has exhausted a lot from the hard work all the way, so it would be bad if he wasted any more.

Handing the emperor's seal letter to Shen Qianyu, everyone changed into official uniforms, holding the letter of surrender and the imperial decree, and crossed the Su River to the place where Nanqing garrisoned troops.Shen Qianyu stood to the east of the Su River, looking across the river at the team of hundreds of people, couldn't stop crying, while Wan Xiao gritted his teeth and looked at the rough wooden boxes at the end of the team, crying.

Song Lan'an supported Shang Chong, and entered King Ning's tent after going through multiple inspections.

King Ning stood on the high seat, seeing several people hurriedly get up and down.

"I have met Mr. Shang."

"Shang Daren has students all over the world, and I, Nanqing Wanmin, have also benefited a lot. You deserve this gift."

Nanqing Xinjun, His Royal Highness Ning Wang bowed to Shang Chong in the past, Shang Chong silently waved his hand, and the whole person seemed to be exhausted and found a seat at random to sit down.Song Lan'an was worried, and stepped forward to inquire carefully.

Ning Wang said: "Call the military doctor."

Song Lan'an bowed his hands gratefully, and King Ning smiled: "I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Song 20 years ago. I wonder if Mr. Song still remembers it?"

"nature."

King Ning didn't care about his attitude, if he was defeated, he might not have a good face.

Sitting on the high seat with a smile on his face, King Ning's eyes were full of triumphant victors.

He never thought that the battle with Dongning would be so long. If he knew, he might not be able to fight in person.

But now he has won a complete victory, not only won eleven cities in Dongning, but also countless gold and silver.Thinking of this, King Ning said with a smile: "Although several lords have come from far away, I should have done my best as a landlord in Nanqing, but Mr. Shang...how about finishing the business first and then discussing other things?"

Song Lan'an smiled lightly: "Naturally."

Zuo Zhengyan put the bright yellow brocade box in his hand in front of King Ning's writing case, and the generals beside King Ning stepped forward to take it and opened it one by one.

"The items sent are consistent with the list, and will be inspected one by one at the end, and there are no mistakes or omissions."

"Benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom are the soul of Dongning, and they disdain falsehood."

King Ning smiled, but opened the list with a full gesture.

"There are not only gold and silver on it, but also fur, porcelain and medicine?"

King Ning laughed: "Even this kind of thing came together. It seems that Dongning has lost a lot in this battle."

Everyone in Dongning didn't speak a word, their silence really pleased King Ning.

"The rice, flour, tung oil and other lowly goods have to be sent to Suhe after a lot of hard work. Your lords really worked hard."

Taking a hasty look at the quantity, King Ning folded it up satisfied, and signed an agreement with Song Lan'an that the two countries would not violate each other for a hundred years.

When King Ning was about to write, the Nanqing military doctor suddenly said: "My lord..."

When everyone turned their heads, they saw Mr. Shang Chongshang sitting where he was, with no life left.Song Lan'an was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and squatted in front of him, with regret in his eyes.

"Master Song."

Zuo Zhengyan stepped forward and called Song Lan'an in a low voice, Song Lan'an nodded lightly: "It's time."

Shen Qianyu was still standing blankly in front of the Su River, looking at the Nanqing military camp. He, Wan Xiao and the generals who had fought this battle for a long time had tears on their faces.Until there was a loud bang, Shen Qianyufang knelt down helplessly and bowed in the direction of the Nanqing military camp.

That loud noise seemed to be just the beginning. Since then, explosions have been heard one after another. The surrounding ground shakes, mountains shake, and smoke fills the sky. The black smoke seems to stretch for thousands of miles, and it can't be seen at a glance.

Shen Qianyu only felt a buzzing in his ears, which made him vomit out a mouthful of blood.

Wan Xiao also had tears mixed with blood, lying on the ground and unable to get up.

His heart aches...

In the battle with Nanqing, what Dongning lost was not only the money in the treasury of those generals, but also the treasury?

Dongning lost the humerus and spine that supported their walking for hundreds of years.

After a long time, the black smoke in the sky gradually dissipated, but there were deafening cries to the east of the Su River.

Shen Qianyu struggled to stand up from the ground, raised his finger and pointed in the direction of Nanqing: "Follow my palace to attack Nanqing, do not kill the surrender, do not kill the common people, do not kill women and children..."

After the words fell, the army crossed the Su River and moved forward after clearing the obstacles.

Wan Xiao led the people in the baggage camp to the deep pit, silently looking for the gold and silver things collected by the whole country.

A young man about seventeen or eighteen years old found a palm-sized rag of gold and silver embroidered crane head from the soil. He lowered his eyes and looked at it for a long time before holding it in his palm and weeping silently.

Wan Xiao was also sitting in the deep pit, pinching the half-faced Honglu Temple waist card that had already changed its shape, feeling distraught...
