At the same time, the west gate of Chuyang City at nightfall is full of fire, like day, looking from the city wall, the crowd is crowded, there is no end in sight, among the crowds under the city, a catapult, a ladder, heavy bows and crossbows and other siege equipment are constantly being transported.

The biting cold wind blew, and the soldiers on the city wall bowed to the full moon, but they were already sweating down, and each of them could not see the slightest fear on their faces, and occasionally the frightened soldiers looked up at the towering figure standing in the middle of the city wall, and all the uneasiness and fear disappeared in an instant.

The figure of the soldier Yan Zòng was as calm as a mountain, the cold wind lifted his fiery red general's cloak, grinning, his gray hair on his temples flew in the wind, and there was no trace of old age on his body.

He stared at the more and more enemies gathered under the city with a pair of tiger eyes, and his fighting spirit was strong and high-spirited.

This person is none other than Zhao Zhong, the king of Chuyang who did not participate in the Luoxia Mountain Cultural Conference tonight, he is old and strong, his majesty is undiminished, the commander of the three armies of Chuyang City, and he deserves to be the Dinghai Divine Needle!

Zhao Zhong recognized that the sturdy man with high cheekbones and a fur crane was Bao Changtian, the big leader of the mountain tribe, and the silver and glamorous woman in the middle was Miao Wang Bai Ling, and the one on the right side of Bailing was wearing a horn crown, even in the middle of winter, the big man who was still showing his chest was the barbarian king Nanmen Shuo.

At this time, Bao Changtian took a step forward and said straight to the point: "Lord Zhao, we don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, the elites of the three major tribes of Miao, Barbarian, and Mountain People have exhausted their elites, and there is only one request, as long as Zhao Wangye responds, we will immediately collect the troops, and from now on, the well water will not violate the river water!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhong frowned, and he said in his heart, this time my Chuyang elite lost 20,000, a large number of soldiers were scattered, and the city was empty, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture Chuyang City, for them, what was more important than attacking the city?

Although he was puzzled, Zhao Zhong still laughed loudly: "Oh? In this case, Leader Bao might as well come and listen, how to say that we are also neighbors, now the three leaders' families are so poor that they come to the door to ask for food, if they can help, I, Zhao Zhong, are naturally the first to do it, that is, to feed one less dog..."

"Haha..."

As soon as Zhao Zhong's voice fell, the soldiers all over the city immediately burst into laughter.

Zhao Zhong really deserved to be a general of a hundred battles, even in such a tense moment, his short sentence not only broke the morale of the other party, but also successfully dispelled the fear of the soldiers.

It is also strange to say that the three leaders under the city were so sarcastic by him, and none of them were angry, so Bao Changtian also laughed, and said noncommittally: "It's not about something, but about a person, as long as Prince Zhao sends this person, we will immediately withdraw the army..."

Zhao Zhong frowned again: "Oh? Who do you want? ”

Bao Changtian said: "Miss Zhao Ruoxin! ”

Zhao Zhong was completely incredulous, and subconsciously asked again: "Who do you mean??? ”

This time, King Miao took the lead and said, "Miss Zhao Ruoxin, how about it, let's not ask too much, right?" As far as I know, Miss Zhao Ruoxin is just a maid in your house, and your Lord Zhao has been on the battlefield for a long time, but the 100,000 Chuyang men under our command are not bad seeds! ”

Zhao Zhong's brows were wrinkled, and he couldn't figure out how the three major tribes of Miao, Man, and Mountain People did their best to send out 100,000 elites, just to get Zhao Ruoxin, a little maid!

Although I thought so in my heart, but Zhao Zhong has never been a soft lord, what are you kidding, you Chen soldiers 100,000 came to my door, and said that if you want someone, I will give you someone, so how will I, Zhao Zhong, rule this Chuyang 200,000 soldiers and civilians in the future.

"Haha..."Zhao Zhonghu's voice was deafening, his fighting spirit was raging, and he said extremely protectively, "The 200,000 people of Chuyang are all the flesh of my Zhao Zhong, not to mention a maid, not even a single hair!" ”

"You..."Bao Changtian was furious, "Lord Zhao, this is forcing us to capture your Chuyang City!" ”

Zhao Zhong said in a deep voice: "It's the three big leaders who are forcing me Zhao..."

In just a few words, the war was about to break out, and the atmosphere in the city and under the city soared to the highest point in an instant, making people's breathing become short.

Under the city, Bao Changtian asked, "Two big leaders, what should I do now?" Zhao Zhong would rather go to war than hand over Miss Ruoxin! ”

Bai Ling glanced meaningfully at the majestic Zhao Zhong on the city wall: "This is what I have expected a long time ago, Zhao Zhong would rather not have 30,000 elites, and he will find Miss Zhao Ruoxin, it can be seen that Miss Ruoxin is also first-class and important to him, not to mention that now we have 100,000 Chen soldiers, even if Chen Bing is 200,000, looking at Zhao Zhong's current posture, he would rather die in battle than agree to release people!" ”

The barbarian king on the side snorted coldly: "Then what should I do? If you don't have someone, it's hard for us to come in vain this time? ”

King Miao pondered for a moment, then the flowers bloomed, and then said, "Fight! Whether you want to get someone or not, let's fight him first, Zhao Zhong has already folded 20,000 elites, if we don't do it when we get to the city, first, Zhao Zhong will look down on it, and secondly, when it reaches the ears of Ruoxin girl in the future, won't it make her feel that our three tribes are hypocritical..."

Bao Changtian nodded, agreeing with King Miao's opinion, he looked back at the more and more troops, and then at the barbarian king, and said: "Then let's fight, let Miss Zhao Ruoxin see our sincerity, I know that your barbarian king has a son, who has followed a Jianghu stranger to learn art since he was a child, and the children in our tribes want to learn art from a teacher, but it all depends on your barbarian king..."

Saying that, the three of them retreated into the midst of a large number of troops, and the long-range attack weapons were pushed to the front with a bang, and they heard Bao Changtian shout: "Since Prince Zhao refuses to hand over people, then only we will come into the city to invite..."

"Catapults prepare, siege the city..."

At this point, a big battle in the west of Chuyang City began, which lasted from the beginning of the curtain to the early morning of the next day, and the armies of the three major tribes, which were originally pretentious, slowly retreated until the early morning of the next day.

……

Zhao Zhong stayed awake all night, sticking to the mountain wall of the city wall every inch, until noon the next day, when all the armies of the three major tribes retreated, he collected his troops and returned home.

Although the person is walking back, the question in his mind is even heavier, Zhao Ruoxin... Zhao Ruoxin, the three major tribes Chen soldiers came with 100,000 soldiers, just for a little maid in my house, she! There must be a lot of things that this king doesn't know.

He was thinking about this thing that he couldn't understand, and just a few steps after he walked into the gate of the palace, he heard a large group of maids whimpering: "Mother Liu, don't, come down, come down quickly..."

Zhao Zhong followed the prestige, and immediately saw that under a big tree opposite, Liu Ma was dragging a white silk and hanging, the face that couldn't see the nose was wet with tears, and the appearance was extremely miserable, if it wasn't for a large group of maids pulling, it would definitely be hanged.

Zhao Zhong's face sank, he took a few steps forward, and asked: "Mother Liu, what are you doing, you are also an old man in the house, crying and shouting at this gate, what kind of system has it become, what are the difficulties, can you mention it to the princess?" ”

Mother Liu, who was dragging Bai Aya, saw Zhao Zhong appear, and Wu Wawa cried even more aggrieved: "The old slave should die, the old slave should die, Lord Wang, you will fulfill the old slave, let the old slave die..."

"Bastard..."Zhao Zhong was furious, "Pull Mother Liu down to this king..."

After speaking, Zhao Zhong snorted angrily again, and the armor on his body shook and rattled, and he immediately walked forward again.

Passing through several corridors, passing through the front yard, and in the atrium garden, there was another crying maid's voice: "Don't want the five county lords, don't think about it..."

"The lord of the five counties, come down quickly, we can talk about anything, slave and maid, please come down, will you come down..."

Zhao Zhong followed the prestige, and saw Zhao Wanyu standing on the stone table in the middle of the garden, holding a white silk ribbon in her hand, tears had already cried her face, and when she saw Zhao Zhong coming over, she cried even more, and said aggrievedly: "Dad... Daddy! You're back... You're going to call the shots for your daughter! It was really not my daughter who did it, my daughter was wronged! ”

Zhao Zhong was inexplicable, he just saw Liu's mother hanging herself at the door, and it was only a few steps, and when he saw Zhao Wanyu hanging herself, his face sank even more: "Yu'er, come on, what's going on?" Where's your mother? ”

As soon as she heard the blame in Zhao Zhong's words, Zhao Wanyu felt even more aggrieved, and grabbed Bai Aya and wanted to hang her again: "You don't believe your daughter, you didn't do it by your daughter, you really didn't do it with your daughter!" Dad, mother, why don't you believe Yu'er? ”

"Nonsense..."Zhao Zhong shouted again, angry, "Pull down the five county lords to this king..."

After speaking, he ignored Zhao Wanyu, he went straight to the backyard, muttering and complaining: "What is Qing'er doing, the subordinates are not sensible, and her daughter is also messing around, which is really worry-free..."

After walking through a few corridors for a long time, he finally walked to the backyard, and at the end of his gaze was Du Yuqing's specially arranged room.

"Qing...", he opened his mouth to shout.

But as soon as the words reached his throat, he heard the voices of several mothers-in-law crying from the opposite room: "Princess, you just want to open it..."

"Princess, the old slave begs you, is there anything you can discuss with the prince?"

"Princess, the old slave begs you, don't hang yourself? That's not a big deal, you want to open some..."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhong immediately became nervous, he knew that Du Yuqing had always been calm and wise, and now even she was going to hang herself, it seemed that something big must have happened in the house last night.

I saw the wind under his feet, and rushed into the room with a breath, and when I looked up, I saw that Du Yuqing was also crying like a tearful person, and the white silk hanging down from the beam of the room had already been put into her neck, if it weren't for a few mothers-in-law holding her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He hurriedly stepped forward to drink his mother-in-law and put down Du Yuqing: "Qing'er, what happened?" ”

"Erlang..."Du Yuqing threw herself into her arms, "Qing'er is sorry for you!" Last night, last night, that brute of You Xiaojiang teased Qing'er... Whining... Erlang, Qing'er is sorry for you, you just let Qing'er die! ”

At that moment, Du Yuqing couldn't cry and told her how You Xiaojiang teased her last night.

Although Du Yuqing was not given anything by You Xiaojiang, this kind of thing happened to him as a prince, and Zhao Zhong still couldn't accept it at all.

As soon as Du Yuqing's voice fell, he heard Zhao Zhong's voice infused with internal force and shook the whole room: "You Xiaojiang, this king is going to kill you, and he wants to break your body into ten thousand pieces..."

After a long while, Zhao Zhong remembered that Zhao Wanyu was also going to hang herself, and as soon as he asked, he heard Du Yuqing tell him again about what happened on Luoxia Mountain last night.

After listening, Zhao Zhong didn't understand why it had anything to do with Zhao Wanyu's hanging.

Then I heard Du Yuqing say again: "In the whole banquet last night, Yu'er and those maids who didn't drink were intact, and all the guests in the house today made a fuss about Yu'er's doing, and Yu'er drugged their wine... Yu'er has suffered an injustice and has bitterness in her heart... So... All of them hanged themselves..."

"Ah...," Zhao Zhong was shocked, "What happened to the guests in the capital?" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Du Yuqing to say anything, Zhao Zhong ran to the guest courtyard of the palace like the wind.

However, before I walked into the guest house, I heard the voices of ouch ouch inside from a distance: "Ouch, my ass, who the fuck did this, I'm seventy years old, and I can do it, old man, I'm not alive..."

As soon as he heard this voice, Zhao Zhong also roared in his heart, and quickly quickened his pace, as soon as he walked into the courtyard, he stood in place in shock, motionless, and the scene in front of him really shocked him.

It turned out that at this moment, the courtyard of Nuoda was full of white silk fluttering, waving in the wind, and all the distinguished guests from the capital were covering their buttocks with one hand, old tears flowing, and the other hand was dragging the white silk belt hanging down from the beam of the house to the neck.

Some of them have already been hung up five or six early, and a pair of legs are hanging in the air and trembling, it seems that they are about to run out of breath, and the rest are still climbing up one after another.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Zhong was stunned and stunned, and he couldn't react at all for a while, he was originally just two sideburns with gray hair, but at this moment they were all white, white hair like snow, silver silk dancing!

……

Later, someone wrote a poem to praise and say: "The staggered selection of the guests is welcomed, the chrysanthemums are scattered and the white silk is missing, the carefree maid rides the wind, and the prince of Chuyang is like snow..."
