"But our army has traveled here, and it has taken a lot of time, so we are really unwilling to return in vain!" Hu Feng frowned, this unexpected change made his plan to kill all sides come to naught, making him feel a little depressed in his heart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Nie Chen's eyes flashed: "It's better to be like this, I'll take the first step, rush back to the capital to see the saint, and inquire about the reason for this matter." ”

"This, I think it's better for the prime minister to follow the army, at least the safety is guaranteed. "Tiger Wind means something.

Nie Chen smiled, then nodded, and did not insist any more. Her original plan was to get out first. Since Hu Feng is suspicious, it would be better to stay for two more days.

In the past few days, Nie Chen has already understood that there are no three protectors in the army. This is good news for her, she can get out of the way at any time without worrying about being blocked.

Hu Feng returned to his camp, thought a little, and called a cronie. instructed him to return to Beijing as soon as possible to find out the changes in the palace and why he suddenly withdrew his troops. Hu Feng had a vague premonition in his heart that returning to Beijing this time was very unfavorable to him, and he needed to prepare in advance.

The army marched the next day and returned along the same route, but the march of 100,000 men was not as simple as 10 men and 8 men. All kinds of baggage are carried with you, and the speed is naturally greatly reduced. In addition, Hufeng deliberately delayed, and after traveling for several days, he walked less than 100 miles.

"Master, let's go?" the turtle, which had turned into a personal soldier, approached and suggested to Nie Chen. After learning that there were no monks with them, several of them had already gathered around Nie Chen.

Nie Chen shook his head: "Wait a few more days, and leave now, I'm afraid it will arouse Hu Feng's suspicion." In case of other accidents, our previous efforts will be in vain. ”

According to Nie Chen's plan, she was going to wait for the army to march for a while before finding a way to get out and leave.

When the time comes, he will change himself and directly restore his original appearance, as for the loss of a Zuo Prime Minister, let Hu Feng slowly find it. Anyway, according to Nie Chen's recital, there is no good result for this tiger wind to go back, and he doesn't care about adding this guilt.

However, this tiger wind was very cautious, and strictly guarded Nie Chen along the way, not giving Nie Chen a chance to get out at all.

Of course, this is because Nie Chen cares about the overall situation and is unwilling to reveal his identity. Otherwise, with ten times more sergeants guarding, Nie Chen could easily leave. However, she is now playing the role of Prime Minister Zuo, and if she escapes by force, she will inevitably let Hu Feng see the flaws. If there is another accident because of this, then your previous efforts will be in vain.

A tiger wind, Nie Chen doesn't care, what she is worried about is the tiger wind's subordinates, the 100,000 army.

And so it was three days before the army came to a city. This city is called Fengtai, with a population of more than 100,000, and in this time and space, it is already a medium-sized town.

On the grounds that the army was tired, Hu Feng ordered to be stationed in place to rest. Then he found Nie Chen, saying that he was invited by the prefect and invited Nie Chen to a banquet together.

Nie Chen wanted to refuse, but he couldn't help but insist. Especially what Hu Feng said, Prime Minister Zuo and the prefect have been friends for many years, and it is a bit unreasonable to avoid it. Nie Chen had no choice but to agree to go to the banquet together.

"Master, the two of us will go with you!" said the turtle and the unicorn in unison.

Nie Chen thought about it for a while, but shook his head: "Hu Feng insisted on inviting me to the banquet, which feels a little weird. Stay in the barracks, keep an eye on the movements of the army, and notify me of any changes. ”

"Yes the hosts. The two responded in unison.

The banquet was arranged for the evening, and Hu Feng arranged a carriage to carry Nie Chen into the city.

In the center of the city, inside the prefect's yamen, the banquet has been prepared. In one hall, there are more than a dozen long tables, on which all kinds of delicacies are listed, exuding this alluring color and fragrance.

Nie Chen glanced at it, his eyes couldn't help but light up, coupled with the pungent fragrance, it made Nie Chen feel a sense of coveting. If he hadn't estimated his identity, he would have been a member of the dynasty, the emperor's side of the emperor, and Nie Chen would have pounced on him.

"Brother Yuntai, long time no see. An old man in a navy blue robe, Shi Shiran walked up to Nie Chen and said with a smile.

"yes, yes! long time no see. Nie Chen smiled, but he didn't know who the person in front of him was, so he had to deal with it.

Fortunately, Hufeng was on the side, but he solved the dilemma for Nie Chen: "Governor Ma and Prime Minister Zuo have been friends for many years, so this time we have to talk about the old days." ”

"It turns out that he is the prefect. Nie Chen's heart moved, and with deep meaning, he glanced at the tiger wind in front of him.

Since Governor Ma and Prime Minister Zuo are old friends, this banquet should be Governor Ma taking the initiative to invite Nie Chen. But now, everything is arranged by Tiger Wind, which is inevitably a little unreasonable.

Ma Zhifu nodded: "Yes, yes, it's time to reminisce about the past, I haven't seen Yuntai for many years, and we are a little rusty with each other." Brother Yuntai, hurry up and take a seat, today I have prepared a few of your favorite side dishes, let's either get drunk and not go home. ”

Hearing the food, Nie Chen's index finger moved, and he instantly put his doubts aside. Under the arrangement of the prefect of Ma, he sat in his place. Sniffing the fragrance, Nie Chen nodded with satisfaction, and without waiting for the other party to be too polite, he took a sip and put it in his mouth.

"Well, it tastes good. Nie Chen exclaimed, the quality of this dish was much better than the tavern outside.

"Brother Yuntai likes it, which is my Ma Yu's greatest honor. Come, Brother Yuntai, taste the drunken Nanshan for the past thirty years, this is your favorite wine. Ma Zhifu raised his glass and invited.

Nie Chen hesitated, but still raised his wine glass. Nie Chen doesn't know how to drink, but he has cultivation, but he doesn't have to worry about getting drunk. And this Prime Minister Zuo obviously drinks a lot, and if he refuses rashly, it will inevitably look a little abrupt.

Raising the wine glass, Nie Chen followed the example of Ma Zhifu, made a gesture of invitation to him, and brought the wine glass to his lips to drink it all. But at this moment, Nie Chen's nose asked a strange breath.

Nie Chen was stunned, made a slight distinction, and found that the breath came from the wine. Taking a gentle breath, the corners of Nie Chen's mouth became a little more playful. What was added to this wine, Nie Chen still didn't know, but its effect was easy to identify in front of a Yuan Baby.

"Poison me, or this strong poison, what do they want to do!

Kill me? No, if you want to kill me simply, then a tiger wind stab is enough. Even if you don't want to get into trouble, there are plenty of opportunities to get rid of me casually, after all, in front of them, I'm just an incompetent old man.

Since they didn't want to kill me, they wanted to use it as a threat to achieve their goals. The possibility of this point is still relatively large. ”

Thinking of this, Nie Chen raised his neck and poured all this glass of wine into his mouth. But at the moment when he swallowed it, there was a power of cultivation that shrouded it, turning the glass of wine into a clean one.
