Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 661 Resistance
Chapter 661 Resistance
When the first emperor was still alive, he bestowed Tang Guixi as the county head and divided Xiangtai into her fiefdom.
Since the war with the Chen Army, everyone has called Tang Guixi General Tang.
She hasn't heard the name Xiangtai County Lord for a long time.
At this time, Wei Liao called her the Lord of Xiangtai County, just to remind her not to forget her original identity.
After Wei Liao finished speaking, he waited for Tang Guixi to kneel down and listen to the order.
As a result, Tang Guixi had no intention of kneeling at all.
She stretched out her right hand with a normal expression: "Give it to me."
Wei Liao: "This is against the rules."
Tang Guixi's tone was cold: "In my territory, my words are the rules."
Wei Liao looked at her steadily for a moment.
Just when Yu Youyou thought that they would tear their face apart, Wei Liao smiled suddenly: "Well, since the county lord has said so, then I will follow you."
He handed over the imperial decree.
Tang Guixi took the imperial decree with one hand, unfolded it on the spot, and read the whole content at a glance.
There are a lot of words written in the edict, most of which are unnutritious nonsense, and finally summed up in three points—
First, the emperor thanked Tang Guixi for leading the troops to repel the army of the Kingdom of Chen, rewarded the first two golds, and bestowed the title of princess, asking her to return to Beijing as soon as possible to receive the reward.
Second, she is a daughter after all, so she is not suitable to hold military power. The imperial court will send people to take over the Eastern Expeditionary Army and Liaodong County, and ask her to prepare for the handover in advance.
Third, Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoyao are important criminals wanted by the imperial court. Tang Guixi should have been punished heavily for hiding fugitives. , the emperor can let her go.
Wei Liao obviously already knew the content of the imperial decree, he cupped his fists and saluted, politely.
"Congratulations to the county owner, you will soon become the county owner.
When you arrive in Yujing, the emperor will give you more rewards.
From now on, you will enjoy the glory, and you don't have to take the risk of fighting with others on the battlefield.
If Old General Tang is still alive, he will definitely feel gratified for you. "
Unexpectedly, Tang Guixi threw the imperial decree at Wei Liao's feet with a flick of his hand.
"I appreciate the emperor's kindness, but I'm sorry, I'm used to living in Liaodong County, and I don't plan to move. Please go back with the imperial decree, and don't come here again."
Wei Liao couldn't help frowning, and reminded in a deep voice: "Master, this is an imperial decree, and resisting the decree is a death penalty!"
Tang Guixi suddenly said as if he just came back to his senses.
"That's right, as a subject, you have to obey the emperor's will."
Wei Liao bent down to pick up the imperial decree, wiped off the dust on it, and offered it with both hands again: "Since the county magistrate knows, please act according to the decree."
Tang Guixi smiled, "Then I won't be a courtier."
Wei Liao was stunned: "What did you say?"
Tang Guixi took a step forward and said every word clearly.
"At the beginning, Shen Zhuo voluntarily gave up the Dongzheng Army and Liaodong County. Now he wants to take the Dongzheng Army and Liaodong County back with an imperial decree. Are you dreaming? You go back and tell him that since you have decided to give up, don't think about it anymore. Take it back, from now on Liaodong County is my territory, Tang Guixi, and everything here is up to me."
Wei Liao's expression became ugly: "You want to rebel?"
Tang Guixi imitated Yu Niaoyou's way of talking before, spread his hands, and said almost like a rascal.
"You have to think so, I can't help it
Wei Liao had expected that this trip would not go well, but he did not expect that Tang Guixi would be so tough, not only resisting the edict, but even wanting to rebel.
Wei Liao continued to exert pressure.
"You have to think about it. Even if you hold the military power of the Eastern Expedition Army, you only have more than 100,000 soldiers left. If the imperial court wants to send troops to suppress it, can you really bear it?"
Tang Guixi was not afraid, but showed a confident smile.
"Then fight and see who wins in the end."
Her attitude made it clear that she would not look back.
It's useless to talk too much, Wei Liao put away the imperial decree and prepared the worst plan in his heart.
"The county lord told me such an important matter, I'm afraid he won't let me go back to Yujing alive."
Tang Guixi: "Don't worry, you let Niao Niao and Xiao Juan go once before, they owe you a favor, if I don't kill you today, I will treat it as repaying your favor for them, you go, go back and replace me Tell Shen Zhuo that Liaodong County will not be managed by Dayan in the future."
She paused at this point, since Liaodong County has been separated from Dayan, it can no longer be called a county.
She turned her head to look at Yu Niao, and asked, "Let's change the name of Liaodong County. What do you think is better?"
Yu Niao recalled the red flag fluttering on the city wall, on the flag was a flying "Tang" character, and said.
"The word Tang is very good. Our place is located to the east of Dayan, so let's call it Dongtang."
Tang Guixi's eyes lit up: "Okay, let's call it Dongtang!"
Then she looked at Wei Liao again.
"Did you hear that? From now on, this place will no longer be Liaodong County, but Dongtang Kingdom, which is my Tang Guixi territory."
Wei Liao: "..."
At this time, his mood was very complicated.
He didn't know whether he should be angry because of Tang Guixi's rebellion, or whether he should complain about their almost child's play naming method.
Tang Guixi sat down on the main seat, raised his right hand: "Master Wei, please go back."
Wei Liao knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time.
But he didn't move.
He looked at Yu Niaoyou and asked.
"Can I take a step to speak?"
Xiao Juan frowned: "Is there anything you can't say here?"
Wei Liao ignored him, and looked at Yu Niaoyou with fixed eyes.
Yu Youyou didn't want to cause unnecessary misunderstanding, so she said, "It's the same here."
Wei Liao: "Don't you want to know the recent situation of your father and younger siblings?"
Yu Niao curled her lower lip, feeling hesitant.
She really wanted to know how Yu Sheng and Yu Pingping were doing now?
Tang Guixi interjected: "If you really want to say something, it's the same here. Why do you have to drag you to talk elsewhere? Don't you mean to make the young couple feel bad?"
Yu Niaoyou nodded, expressing that what Guixi said was reasonable.
"Just talk here."
Wei Liao twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed at himself.
"I really don't give me any hope. Well, I'll just tell you. The emperor sent someone to monitor the members of the Yu family for you, but it didn't do them any harm."
Yu Niaoyou: "Thank you."
Wei Liao: "Actually, the emperor didn't intend to send me to Liaodong County this time. I asked for the job on my own initiative. I just wanted to come and see you. By the way, I would like to ask you, from Yujing to Liaodong, have you ever lived and died?" Was there a moment of regret?"
Yu Niaoyou replied without hesitation: "Never."
Wei Liao breathed out lightly as if relieved.
"As good as that."
After finishing speaking, he took a step back: "My task has been completed, so let's go and leave."
Wei Liao turned and left, striding out of the front hall.
Yu Niaoyou didn't know what he thought of, and quickly chased him out the door, shouting at his back.
"I've been forgetting to tell you, thank you!"
Wei Liao paused, but did not turn his head.
He waved his arm to show that he heard, and continued to stride forward.
