Chapter 174: Surrender

Han Xiaoyue was reluctant to use the army to help Situ Sheng and Ding Yuechan find Yu Zhengmei, and Situ Sheng and the others really urgently needed to grasp Yu Zhengmei's situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Han Xiaoyue thought of a compromise solution, and was ready to introduce the two of them to Li Zhongxuan. Li Zhongxuan is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and relying on his relationship network may be the most reliable way at present.

As soon as they arrived at Cui's pharmacy, Mu Yaqin and Zhang Dafa were anxious to ask about the situation between the old lady and Dongfang Li. Han Xiaoyue only said that the second elder had passed away, and did not tell them that the real situation was that the old lady died tragically, and Dongfang Li did not want to be separated from her and made a funeral. However, how could Han Xiaoyue and Long Yan bear to tell him such a truth?

Mu Yaqin returned to the courtyard and told the old lady about her death, only to hear Ah Qiu and Xiao Wan cry immediately. From the crying, it can be heard that Xiao Wan's voice is more sad than Mu Yaqin and Ah Qiu. Only she knew in her heart that the reason why she was so sad was probably because the old lady could no longer support her, and the distance between herself and the owner of Fangcaohui was even more unreachable.

Zhang Dafa pulled Han Xiaoyue and said, "What else does the elder have to entrust?" Han Xiaoyue said: "The elder gave you the crutch he carried with him, and the right is regarded as a token of the leader of the beggar gang." As he spoke, he looked at the outside of the city and said, "The old lady and the Dongfang Elder have an order, ordering you and Miss Mu to lead the disciples to guard Tanzhou with me, so as not to let a single soldier of the Song Kingdom step into the border of Tanzhou! When the Song soldiers enter the city, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

After hearing this, Zhang Dafa wiped his tears and said, "Brother Han, this battle is ......" and sighed. Under Han Xiaoyue's questioning, Li Zhongyu said, "Xiaoyue, this is the important thing we want to tell you. The father and emperor have passed down the decree, and the Tang Kingdom has descended!"

When Han Xiaoyue heard this, all the ideas in her mind suddenly collapsed completely. A second ago, he was full of ambition and vowed to live and die with Tanzhou. And then the next second I heard the bad news that I had landed without a fight. In a trance, what he had done was vividly remembered - guarding Yan Tangxi too much before he was forced to die, risking his death to return to the mountain at night and being ambushed, and showing the formation to Tuoba Ye to demonstrate to him...... Piles and piles are presented in the mind. The surrender of the Tang State without a fight means that all these efforts are meaningless.

Han Xiaoyue panicked in her heart, took two steps back, and her mind went blank. Seeing this, the Li brothers stepped forward to hold him and said, "Xiaoyue, after receiving the holy decree, we are also extremely sad. Don't be in a hurry, listen to us slowly!" he said, helping Han Xiaoyue to one place. Long Yan kept wiping the sweat on his forehead, and secretly said in his heart: "It's good now, I finally don't have any burden, and we can hide from now on!"

"Jingxian...... Where is Jing Xian now?" Han Xiaoyue didn't want to hear them continue at all. What he was worried about at the moment was Li Jingxian's injury. Li Wei walked into the courtyard on one side, and helped Li Jingxian out in less than a moment. Li Jingxian's body was weak, and he sat with Han Xiaoyue and said, "Brother Han, I heard about Dongfang Li and the old lady, don't be too sad!"

Han Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "It was me and Yan'er who buried his second elder with my own hands, and I also fulfilled their wishes one by one, and I have no regrets in my heart." It's just this war...... Why do you say that you will surrender?" said, looking up at the Li brothers and sisters, and said, "Didn't you say that Your Majesty had the intention to fight, and also sent General Li Jianwei to help me? Why did the Song soldiers surrender in a hurry before they began to attack the city?"

Situ Sheng couldn't wait for them to say more, and was about to step forward to divert the topic, but was stopped by Ding Yuechan and said in a low voice: "Don't be like this! Look at Han Xiaoyue's state, can you still help us? Let's wait for him to finish dealing with the matter in front of him!" Situ Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside and waited.

Li Zhongyu continued: "I talked to Zhang Dafa about this matter, and it was indeed my father who couldn't withstand the pressure from the court, so he descended to the Song Dynasty. After the fall of the Song Dynasty, my Li clan retained their fiefdoms, and the rest of the prefectures and counties were all ceded to the Song Dynasty. In this way, the whole territory was saved from the scourge of war, and the people were saved from the suffering of war. After hearing this, Han Xiaoyue shook her head and said: "Hundreds of officials above the court can be lowered, but only Your Majesty cannot be lowered! Could it be that there are fewer similar tragedies in history?"

Li Zhongyu sighed and said, "We also understand the truth. It's not that he Zhao Kuangyin doesn't want to swallow the Tang Kingdom as a whole, but at the moment, all the subjects of my Tang Kingdom don't want to fight, what can my father do? If I have the morale of the Tanzhou army and people in the whole territory of Tang Kingdom, who doesn't want to fight? It's just that if my father doesn't agree again, the entire court will be shut down!" he said, looking at Han Xiaoyue and said, "Xiaoyue, speaking of which, the most sorry person here is you." At the beginning, my brother and sister tried their best to keep you in Tanzhou, but you let your beloved girl Long Yan go, so I agreed. Now that the imperial court has issued an edict, it has made your previous efforts in vain, and of course I am sad in my heart. As brothers, we owe you!" After that, the Li brothers and sisters bowed deeply to Han Xiaoyue together.

Han Xiaoyue hurriedly stopped and said, "What are you doing here?" between brothers, why do you owe anything?" she said, and said with a long sigh of relief, "That's fine, since there is no more war between Tang and Song Dynasty, I, Han Xiaoyue, have also regained my free body." However, I would like to remind you one more thing. The fief of the Li clan must not be wanted. If you surrender, you will have a false name. Otherwise, in the near future, you may be imprisoned!" Li Zhongyu nodded and said, "We have thought about this a long time ago. Maybe it won't be long before you want to see our three brothers and sisters again, and you'll have to go north to Bianjing!"

Han Xiaoyue snorted and said, "I don't want that day to ......happen," he said, got up and said, "In a while, you will go back to the Taishou Mansion with me to confer the seal and put it away." I can't do this Taishou!" Li Zhongyu nodded and said, "Don't be in a hurry, not in a hurry." Let's wait for your friends to recover for a while!"

Li Jingxian suddenly noticed Situ Sheng standing in the corner, and hurriedly pulled Han Xiaoyue and said, "Brother Han, Situ Sheng's thief is also there!" Han Xiaoyue glanced at Situ Sheng and smiled: "By the way, Jingxian, Situ Sheng is here to ask us for help this time." As he spoke, he beckoned Situ Sheng to the front of the placket.

"I'll introduce you. Zhong Yu, Zhong Xuan, Zhong Yi, this is Situ Sheng, the chief disciple of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. Han Xiaoyue continued, "Situ Sheng, these three people are the brothers and sisters of the Li family, the prince of the Tang Kingdom. ”

Li Zhongxuan nodded and smiled: "Situ Sheng, I recognize it." Why, it's only you today, but you can't see the shadow of Dongfang Ba?" Han Xiaoyue smiled: "Dongfang Ba has been injured by me and Yan'er, and he has left at this moment. Situ Sheng gave a deep salute and said: "It turns out that the person Han Xiaoyue introduced to me is His Royal Highness! Situ Sheng is polite!" Han Xiaoyue said: "It turns out that the two know each other. Okay, then tell Zhong Xuan what you have entrusted!"

Li Jingxian hurriedly said: "Brother Han, why are you ......" The implication is that after all, Situ Sheng, a thief, has always been an enmity with Han Xiaoyue, and no matter what the reason, he must not be moved to compassion for him. Han Xiaoyue waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm not helping him, I'm helping Yu Zhengmei." At the beginning, it was Yu Zhengmei who helped me avoid being harmed by Situ Sheng. ”

Situ Sheng saw that Han Xiaoyue and Li Zhongxuan were so close, but he didn't expect Han Xiaoyue to have this kind of relationship. Li Zhongxuan has a high reputation in the rivers and lakes, and he knew that this was the case, and he would never provoke characters like Han Xiaoyue.

Situ Sheng pulled Ding Yuechan to his side and said, "Yuechan, you come to tell the three highnesses about the robbery of the third sister." Ding Yuechan stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Ding Yuechan, the folk girl, has seen three highnesses. On the way home that day, the three of us encountered a group of masked men in black who wanted to plot against us. The three of us are outnumbered, and the third sister was also robbed by that gang, and her life and death are currently unknown...... Han Gongzi said that the three highnesses could help find clues, so they asked for help. "Say goodbye, give another salute.

After hearing this, Li Zhongyu looked at Li Zhongxuan and said, "Brother Huang, this is a matter on your rivers and lakes, you can make a decision!" Li Zhongyi stood aside and looked at him as well.
