The sun is blazing, scorching the originally thirsty earth. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The cicadas on the branches roared desperately, their cries shaking every leaf. It has been a few days without rain, coupled with dry weather. The gates were closed, and the people of the city were already thirsty.

There used to be a well on the outskirts of the city, but now even sand has been dug out. There is really no water source, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that more people will die. Xiao Yihan, who fled from the Rong soldiers outside the city, met Wang Qibo here.

The east and west gates could not be penetrated. What's more, Chu Junhao was in the city, one was afraid of being held hostage by the soldiers, and the other was a message yesterday. It is said that Qi Su and Xianyun are ready, just waiting for Duanmu Kang to open the city gate in person. But now, it seems, there is no movement.

Standing under the big willow tree to escape the summer heat, Wang Qibo was a little restless: "If it goes on like this, won't you sit and wait for death?" Where are the soldiers at the Yaguan Pass, they will come back to rescue in two days. If we don't enter the city again, I'm afraid we're all going to die here......"

However, he got a message from Chu Junhao, saying that he should not act rashly. Xiao Yihan listened to Wang Qibo's continuous persuasion, and he had no idea for a while. He looked at Wanning, who was sweating profusely, and unconsciously fetched water for her. Xiao Yihan had no intention of battlefield, which made Wang Qibo very helpless.

"It's better to save some," Wan Ning took a sip of water, and then handed it to Xiao Yihan and said, "Keep it for you and General Wang to drink, otherwise you will lose your strength." Pingsu Wang Qibo didn't have a very good impression of Wanning, and when he saw the kettle handed over, he turned his face away.

Drink water, save some water. Wang Qibo's ears kept echoing these words. Suddenly, he slapped his head, and his eyes lit up: "If they refuse to open the city gate, we will cut off the water supply!" It happened to be a hot weather, and I believe they won't survive for a few days! ”

This is a good note, and Wang Qibo quickly ordered his subordinates to go upstream of the Ganges River with Xiao Yihan. Then cut off the water source, as long as it doesn't rain. Then the city will soon be in chaos, and he Duanmu Kang will inevitably open the city gate.

When the time comes, and death by thirst, there will be great chaos in the city. As long as you take advantage of the chaos to enter the city, then the restoration of the country will be hopeful. In the past, there was a Wei water irrigation beam, and now there is the Ganges River who breaks Kyoto. By about the time the incense was burned, the Ganges had already been intercepted.

Looking at the soldiers guarding the city tower, Wang Qibo couldn't help but feel a little proud: "If you want to drink water, open the city gate quickly!" I don't want Kyoto to become a dead city! Looking at the soldiers who hurriedly prayed, Wang Qibo smiled coldly, as if he had a chance to win.

The wind blew, scorching every inch of the land. There had never been such a hot weather before, Xiao Yihan wiped the sweat for Wanning. also shielded her from the shade and told Wanning that she was about to enter the city. "I have to bear with me," he fanned her gently.

"You cut off the water source, what should Jun Hao do?" Wan Ning just waited for Xiao Yihan to come back, immediately grabbed his wrist, and shouted anxiously, "There are still so many people in the city, can you just bear it and watch them die of thirst?" Her words were heard by Wang Qibo.

Looking at Wanning's anxious expression, Wang Qibo unconsciously explained: "It was my idea, there is no matter of Xiao Yihan here...... How can a woman like you accomplish great things? The words he said were heavy, and they hit Wanning's heart hard.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, what Wang Qibo said is not unreasonable. She looked at the gate in a daze, hoping to open it soon. So that she can see Jun Hao soon, see Qi Su and Xianyun. It's just that her worry made Xiao Yihan on the side secretly clench his fists.

At noon, the sun became more poisonous. The sun was scorching the earth, and even the gilding on the door melted. The leaves of the branches also drooped their heads listlessly. The cicadas were tired of screaming, and fell asleep quietly on the branches.

The dust beside the road was burned by the sun. At this time, everyone outside the city was looking at the city gate. Longing for the moment of opening. Especially Wang Qibo, he didn't want to bother so much, but he couldn't get results. With a "creak", the gates opened.

Wang Qibo squinted his eyes and saw that there were no more guards on the city tower. Then he waved his hand and shouted at the soldiers he had brought with him, "Brothers! Let's go into town! Rescue the Emperor! Kill the soldiers! Chong-" So all the people suddenly doubled their spirits a lot.

Carefully calculated, such an entanglement with Rong Bing has taken a lot of days. I just don't know what the situation is in the city. Wan Ning sat in the carriage, and Xiao Yihan drove the car into the city. It's just that she didn't lift the curtain, she was afraid to see the miserable situation of the people.

Sitting in the carriage, although she covered her ears. But you can also hear the sound of weapons handing over outside the car. The people wept and cried out, and the footsteps of fleeing in all directions. Suddenly, she looked up suddenly. Lifting the curtain and looking around, she wanted to find Jun Hao.

Is it her monarchy, who is also in this crowd. She saw the scenes of the separation of her relatives and the scenes of corpses strewn all over the field. For a moment, I remembered the fire a year ago, when the fire burned down the palace. It's like this, it's a mess.

"Get in!" Xiao Yihan saw Wanning poking her head out, and hurriedly covered her eyes, "The emperor is in King Kang's mansion, and when you get there, you will be safe......" His voice was very fast, and it was buried by the sound of fighting that followed. But Wan Ning could vaguely hear that Jun Hao was in King Kang's Mansion.

That's good, that's good. She sighed softly, and her heart finally let go. It's just that the people are pitied, and the war is raging. It's always them who get hurt in the end. Even though she was in the carriage, she could hear it. The resentment in the hearts of the people, and their tears.

I don't know how long it took, but there was no more noise in my ears. Xiao Yihan stretched out his hand and led her into King Kang's mansion. It used to be a barren place, but now it's like this. It is hard to imagine the painful expressions of the people who complained.

The days after the restoration of China became extraordinarily long. Wan Ning remembered that after Jun Hao was reinstated, the first thing he did was to recuperate. At least in five years, the vitality of the eastern foothills will be restored. It is also necessary to attract immigrants from other places and encourage agricultural measures. It seems that Jun Hao, who is in exile, has grown up a lot.

Later, Wanning gradually learned how to behave in the world. Although she is a maid in front of the palace, she also has the responsibility of serving the harem. At that time, she led the harem, and everything was simple. shared weal and woe with the people, and was called the "most beautiful maid" in Donglu by the Baixin.

With every step along the eaves, Wanning's heart beats rapidly. She has been separated from Jun Hao for a long time, but she doesn't know how to face it and what to say. She was a little excited, but the moment she pushed the door open. But I saw it, Jun Hao with an angry face.

"Don't you want to stand still?" Jun Hao slapped the table anxiously and yelled at Xiao Yihan, "Qi Su told you, Xianyun will persuade Duanmu Kang!" It's good now, Xianyun is held hostage by Duanmu Kang! Tell me, what should we do? ”

How could it be, how could it be this result. Wan Ning didn't know about this at all, she turned around and looked at Xiao Yihan, her eyes were a little confused. Later, Xiao Yihan told Wanning that Xianyun would use pregnancy as an excuse. Let Duanmu Kang open the city gates, and not a single soldier is needed.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Wan Ning suddenly understood why Jun Hao didn't let them send troops. Now it's good, not only hurt the people, but also cause Xianyun's plan to fail. Duanmu Kang became suspicious and wanted to punish Xianyun. At this moment, a dark cloud rose outside the window.

The wind wrapped the lotus leaves on the surface of the lake, mixed with wisps of freshness. Blowing slowly along the eaves of the porch, blowing away the hot summer without a trace. The lotus flowers bloom in a variety of colors, rendering the freshness of summer. Despite this, it could not be blown through the Zhengyang Palace.

Zhengyang Hall is the main hall of the Donglu Imperial Palace, the main hall where the king went to the court to discuss. The hall is divided into two halls in the east and west, and the palace pavilion is in the shape of the arch moon, and the Zhengyang hall surrounds it. It means that "the stars hold the moon", symbolizing that the king has supreme power.

The east hall is the main one, and it is the sleeping palace where the king rests. At this time, Duanmu Kang was waiting for Xianyun angrily, and his stomach was full of anger. What he didn't understand was why so many soldiers and horses were rushing into the city. The streets were full of people fleeing in all directions.

And according to the report of the spies, it was said which soldiers and horses were led by Wang Qibo. It is coming in the direction of the Imperial Palace. Duanmu Kang, who was angry, grabbed Xianyun's wrist. He asked viciously: "Yu Xianyun, what do you want to do before you give up?" Am I dead? ”

looked at Duanmu Kang's blood-red eyes and his deep voice. Xianyun's tears suddenly filled his eyes, and he shook his head aggrievedly: "Originally, I wanted to do this...... But I can't bear it...... Brother Kang, you believe me, you believe me-"

In fact, Xianyun didn't know what was going on, and he said it was okay at the beginning. With a fake pregnancy as a threat, let Duanmu Kang open the city gate. Who knew that later, Wang Qibo outside the city cut off the water source, causing civil unrest. So he entered the city without permission and disturbed the people's hearts.

On this point, Xianyun is completely unaware. She was still wondering if the ruler had changed again. Now listening to Duanmu Kang's hysterical roar, she has completely understood in her heart. It was supposed to go according to plan, and it was foolproof.

It's a pity that Wang Qibo is impatient by nature, where is he willing to listen to this so-called plan. He did what he wanted to do, although he took the urgent need, but he made Xianyun subject to Duanmu Kang. The tearful eyes rippled in the clouds, so that Duanmu Kang's raised hand slowly put down.

Because of his scruples about Xianyun's "son in the womb," Duanmu Kang finally endured his anger. He didn't want to say anything more, but he was afraid that he would relent. "Let's go!" Duanmu Kang turned his back to her and said coldly, "I don't want to see you again, just as, we have never met ......"

Never met? Xianyun chewed on these four words carefully. My heart hurts like a bee sting, and I still remember what I encountered. It has only been four months, and now it is about to be separated. This is a fact that Xianyun will never accept.

At that time, he said that he would stay together for the rest of his life. What's wrong now, it's just a small misunderstanding. "Duanmu Kang, how can you drive me away?" Xianyun pretended to stroke his lower abdomen and cried in a low voice, "I don't want the child to be born without seeing his father-"

I wanted to pretend to be happy, and I deceived Duanmu Kang. But who would have thought that Duanmu Kang would treat himself like this. It's heartbreak, it's sadness, it's relief, it's relief. Every word he said warmed Xianyun's heart. At that moment, she didn't even want to help Qi Su anymore.

"Do you know that if you do this, I will die," Duanmu Kang grabbed her shoulder tightly, looked into her eyes and said seriously, "You are my wife, why do you always have to help outsiders?" Sister Yun, listen to me. Now hurry up and go with Dieyi, return to the grassland, and you will be safe! ”

After hearing these words, Xianyun knew. It turned out that Duanmu Kangdu had already made arrangements, as long as he went out from the south gate. Someone will pick you up, and you'll be able to walk north to the grassland. At this time, Xianyun regretted what a stupid thing he had done.

In the East Pavilion, there is a faint fragrance of gardenias. Looking over the window, it was a gardenia. Moistened by the spring breeze and summer rain, huge petals have been born. White as snow, the stamens are tender and yellow. A new sprout grows around and is full of vigor.

I still remember when I left the palace. The gardenia took root here, and a year passed. didn't die, but still stayed in the cold Zhengyang Palace. Quietly watching the world, the red dust clutched. Xianyun was tidying up in the room when she heard a commotion outside.

She got up in horror and hurriedly asked Dieyi to see what was going on. Who knew that Dieyi had been gone for a long time, but she still didn't come back. Xianyun was a little worried, so he took a step to see it for himself. When she walked to the main hall, she saw a picture that made her happy but frightened.

The soldiers who surrounded the hall surrounded the water. At this time, her heart was terrified, no wonder, no wonder Duanmu Kang didn't let her come out in the first place. It's just Duanmu Kang, Xianyun's mind is blank. She looked left and right, and finally found him.

Sure enough, it's Wang Qibo! But I saw him holding a long sword and holding it on Duanmu Kang's neck. Then he kicked him to the ground and shouted at Xianyun: "If you want to save him, hand over the jade seal quickly." I don't want to cause unnecessary harm! ”

Isn't it, isn't it all over? Xianyun looked at the captured Duanmu Kang and understood something in his heart. What Duanmu Kang did before was all for himself. If it weren't for Xianyun, Duanmu Kang wouldn't have been caught. For a while, Xianyun regretted it.

"What are you going to do?" Duanmu Kang suddenly roared at Xianyun, then glared at a pair of blood-red eyes, and said with resentment, "Did you come to see my joke?" Heh, I didn't expect that I, Duanmu Kang Yingming I, would be destroyed in the hands of a woman like you-"

No, this is not Duanmu Kang's true words. Xianyun couldn't help shaking his head, but he really heard these words. The heart is tangled, the gentle him, the ruthless him. Xianyun couldn't tell the difference, but one thing was certain, Duanmu Kang was sincere to her.

It's just that now that he has been captured by Wang Qibo, he must have said this in order to leave by himself. Xianyun mustered up his courage and said to Wang Qibo boldly: "General Wang, I have always respected you as a hero in Xianyun. How can you kill the father of a child for the sake of your own fame? ”

Everyone has weaknesses, and Wang Qibo also has them. Xianyun, who grew up in the palace, naturally knows what Cong Li said. The saddest thing for Wang Qibo is the tragic death of his wife and children. Thinking of this reason, it should be able to persuade him. Xianyun breathed rapidly, staring intently at the long sword.

Sure enough, Wang Qibo's eyes were a little hesitant. Duanmu Kang took the opportunity to hold the sword with his backhand, and he didn't care about the blood in his palm. Instead, he knocked Wang Qibo down with a palm and quickly fled from his men. "Brother Kang?" Xianyun stroked the wound on his hand, and shed tears of pity for a while.

It's just that now is not the time to be sad, Duanmu Kang clutched Xianyun's hand tightly. Then ran towards the back garden, Wang Qibo, who came back to his senses, waved at the army behind him and said, "Follow me into the palace and capture Duanmu Kang alive!" At the sound of the order, the soldiers swarmed in.

After a cup of tea, the soldiers who arrived at the eastern foot followed. Soon occupied the palace, and then surrounded Chu Junhao into the main hall. Can it be regarded as a successful restoration, Chu Junhao wants to get the jade seal. Then, the remnants of the Rong soldiers were driven to the Mobei grassland.

"If I want to withdraw from Kyoto, it is naturally impossible," Duanmu Kang knelt in front of Jun Hao, quite proud, "Calculate carefully, Xiao Yihan's army is also coming...... "This is his last hope, he wants to grasp this last straw and gamble."
