The other side.

The king of the Meng tribe returned to Zicheng.

He sat naked on the throne, with several slave women kneeling beside him, applying medicine to him.

The Mon king's injury was not serious.

After all, He Songning had no intention of fighting him to the death...

When it was applied to the wound on his neck where the blade was pressed, he hissed.

When everyone heard the sound, they immediately knelt down and said, "I'm despicable and derelict in my duty." "We will die if we fail to protect the king!"

The king of the Meng clan waved his hand, and a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes.

However, when he thought that he would not be the only one who would be disappointed soon, he gained a temporary balance in his heart.

"Let Qiao Teng have a good meal today," the Mon king said.

"And then send him on his way?" the minister answered blankly.

The king of the Meng clan scolded: "It was brought in exchange."

"Now that Princess Xuan is gone, do I have to hand over this... too?" The ministers looked worried.

The king of the Meng clan said calmly: "Well, the status of a national teacher is valuable."

The ministers sighed on their lips, but they were still very moved in their hearts, thinking that if they fell into such a situation, the king would not be willing to abandon them easily, right?

The letter exchanging hostages was quickly delivered to King Xuan's desk.

After King Xuan opened it and read it, he passed it on to others for review.

Fang Chengzhong sneered: "You want to exchange for Qiao Teng? Then Qiao Teng is the father of King Wei's concubine! What does it have to do with us?"

The others didn't say anything, but they thought so in their hearts.

The more serious thing is to get the princess back.

"Qiao Teng has been missing for a long time, but it turns out he is still in their hands?" Fang Chengzhong still felt something was wrong.

King Xuan said in a deep voice: "Change."

Fang Chengzhong looked horrified: "Your Highness?"

"The princess will be taken back by the king myself." King Xuan said in a cold tone.

Fang Chengzhong was helpless: "This Qiao Teng still has Yizhou soldiers in his hands. If he doesn't come back, I'm afraid he won't be alive in the future..."

Having been a prisoner in the enemy camp for too long, I no longer have the trust of my superiors when I come back.

King Xuan stood up and said: "The princess has sacrificed herself, what should you do?"

Their hearts skipped a beat and they suddenly reacted.

yes.

Anyone who is not a fool can imagine that the princess is the most important person to His Highness King Xuan! So after all, Qiao Teng is still in the hostile camp.

But the Mon still took Qiao Teng in exchange.

It can only mean that the princess gave in on her own. Why? Putting the overall situation first? Don’t want His Highness to have a reputation of only caring about women?

In short, the princess is kind-hearted!

Their hearts were moved, their faces were full of murderous intent, and they shouted in unison: "We must attack the Meng tribe and capture their king!"

King Xuan said calmly: "Well, then we must keep in mind the appearance of the Mon king."

The next day.

The two armies exchanged hostages.

King Xuan asked the King of Meng to come in person to exchange. The King of Meng thought the same and wanted King Xuan to come in person.

On the rare flat land between the cities.

The two armies faced off against each other, with flags flapping in the wind.

The king of the Meng clan came to the front of the formation in a carriage.

On the Liang Dynasty side, several young generals were riding majestic horses.

Only a loud shout was heard: "Welcome to Your Highness!"

The young general divided the two sides to make way. Then the young and once famous Prince Xuan of Liang Dynasty slowly walked into the sight of everyone on horseback.

His aura was so powerful that he suddenly overpowered everyone else.

"Where is he?" the king of the Meng clan asked, staring closely at him without taking his eyes off him.

Finally, he confirmed...

That man is really not King Xuan!

The man in front of her is her real husband!

Indeed... young and handsome.

With the nobility that seems to be inherent in Liang Dynasty people.

This time King Xuan waved his hand.

Someone brought up the national master Lin Gu.

His head was tightly wrapped in white cloth, and although he staggered, he could still walk.

"Why is it wrapped like this?" The king of the Meng clan frowned, "Did you use a fake one to pretend to be?"

King Xuan was taciturn and just nodded slightly to the subordinates beside him.

Then someone walked over and opened the white cloth on Lin Gu's head.

The Mon people took a closer look.

Lin Gu actually lost an ear!

Even the tip of his nose was partially shaved off.

Other than that, there was no other change in his face, except that he became thinner and looked...more gloomy.

Then the two sides began to exchange hostages.

There was a large army pressing down on the formation, but there was no trouble. Qiao Teng just walked back to the Liang Dynasty army.

He has a strong body, is well maintained, and walks much more smoothly than Na Linggu.

When he came closer, Qiao Teng knelt down with a pop, with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me! And thank you, Princess Xuan, for saving me!"

No one was surprised.

As expected, the princess is kind-hearted...

Qiao Teng opened his mouth immediately, but he still had something to say.

At the same time, the king of the Mon clan also raised his voice and said loudly: "Princess Xuan is no longer in our Mon clan!"

After hearing his words, the Liang Dynasty army became dissatisfied.

Isn't this lying with open eyes?

Someone even pressed on the handle of the knife.

The Mon king followed closely and said: "Yesterday, a man sneaked into the Mon camp and took people away under the guise of Princess Xuan's brother."

He paused and pointed to the wound on his neck: "This is what the man left."

The king of the Meng clan looked at King Xuan and felt that he was in the same boat. He said, "What? Didn't they return to your army? I'm afraid they eloped together!"

The king of the Mon clan felt that Xue Qingyin's various emotions at that time could not be faked.

But since that man is not King Xuan.

Then it could only be her lover.

It turns out that King Xuan couldn't get her love either...

The king of the Meng clan felt balanced.

"Nonsense!"

"You Mon barbarians wantonly smear my princess, you deserve to die!"

For a time, the whole army was in a state of excitement.

Why are you using your brother's name?

Princess Xuan does have a brother!

My brother has indeed come with the army!

Damn the Mon people are full of filthy words!

The king of the Meng clan was shocked by the formation.
