Zhang Hongyi was not worried about his wife at home, not to mention that this time the emperor promised him to be rich and noble, and promised that if he made a great contribution this time, he would be recommended by Deng Zhizhou, and he could be appointed as the governor of Jiangzhou, and he could have the right to recruit soldiers on his own. In normal times, the emperor would definitely not dare to do this, but at this time he was forced to have no choice but to make a promise first.

Deng Zhizhou has the grace of knowing Zhang Hongyi, and he has always liked him very much, so he lent him 40,000 soldiers and horses, and allowed him to return 20,000 if he succeeded, and the remaining 20,000 horses were sent to him.

Zhang Hongyi was ready to go north to settle down the royal family, so he immediately took the lily to Jiangzhou, so before leaving, he borrowed people from Deng Zhizhou at the same time and took the lily to the capital.

This incident caused a sensation in the entire Yingzhou, the scoundrel in the market that day, who would have thought that after going to the battlefield, there would be such a splash of wealth and wealth?

Near the mouth of the North Hutong, Zhou Dalang heard that Zhang Hongyi had now been promoted to the governor of Jiangzhou, and he trembled with excitement: "Zhang Hongyi, is it that Zhang Hongyi?" He asked a series of questions, and Sister-in-law Zhou was also a little uncertain: "I said that I was a pig killer, but I don't know if it's the same person." ”

"It should be, it should be, the one who came back said it was a pig killer." Zhou Dalang clasped his hands together and kept bending over and nodding: "Ancestors bless, my father and mother have a spirit in the sky." I didn't expect that the Zhou family should be rich and noble this time, clean up, and when he has made a great contribution, maybe the emperor will think of us and take us back. ”

Zhou's sister-in-law didn't say anything, Zhou Dalang saw Zhang Hongyi's face that day, and drove people away without putting on a good face, and said that Lily married Zhang Hongyi that day to remarry, and he should commit suicide for Ye Shizi, and the surname Zhang was a violent temper at first glance. I'm afraid it may not be like what my husband said. I can think of them for the lily's sake.

But looking at her husband's happy face, I remembered that he used to be the prince of Houfu, and now in this small courtyard, the food and clothing are not as good as before. Even because of his thin stature. On weekdays, I don't even dare to open the door. I was afraid of being disturbed by the local scoundrels, and I stayed at home all day long. Even if Sister-in-law Zhou didn't think so, she didn't dare to say anything when she saw her husband full of hope.

In fact, she also hopes that Lily can take care of the old feelings, even if it is not for Zhou Dalang's sake, but also for the sake of her former in-laws, she will think of them, and she can share the wealth with them, although she knows that the hope is very small.

She is fed up with this kind of life, the infestation of the ruffians around her makes their family like a frightened bird, she was originally a girl from the official family, and this kind of life is really unbearable.

At this time, Lily and Zhang Hongyi were separated from each other and were taken back to Beijing.

In the plot, Zhou Baihe dreamed of going back, but at that time, she didn't take a step back to the imperial city until she died, and now by chance, when Lily came to fulfill her wish, her wish was completed, but unfortunately it was the Zhang butcher who Zhou Baihe had always looked down on in the plot.

The surrounding scenery is constantly changing, this trip to take the lily into Beijing the army is in a hurry, Zhang Hongyi's army has even begun to transport grain and grass to Beijing a few days ago, the remnants of the abandoned prince's tribe have surrounded Kyoto. There were not many troops in Beijing, so it was best for them to enter the city with Zhang Hongyi when he arrived, no matter how bad it was, they couldn't be too late for him, otherwise they would be in danger if they encountered the remnants of the old princelings.

On that day, the Zhou family was embarrassed and was driven out of the capital, but they didn't expect that a few years later, Lily would be able to go back in a carriage again one day.

It was getting closer and closer to the capital, and the person who escorted her even came to tell her that it was at most a day away from the capital, and the group couldn't help but show a relieved look on their faces.

The closer you are to the capital, the more you can feel that something is wrong, the people in some villages along the way estimate that something is wrong, they have already fled, ten rooms and nine empty, and occasionally you can see a few corpses wearing military uniforms on the road, on a hot day, some have rotted and emitted a burst of stench. If you look closer, you can still see the traces of the army passing by, and the wheel prints left behind are very obvious, it should be Zhang Hongyi and his party who arrived first. The road was bumpy, sometimes a group of people didn't even dare to find an inn, and now it was hard to arrive quickly, once you entered Beijing, there must be hot water, delicious food, and even a beautiful girl.

In the evening, everyone did not rest, wanting to rush to the root of the imperial city in one breath, when the sky was just dawning in the morning, the towering city gate wrapped in the mist could be seen in the distance across the mountain road, and the soldiers led by the front were in good spirits, and came to the lily carriage with their horses:

"Girl, it's almost there!" Although Zhang Hongyi has worshiped Deng Zhizhou as his father-in-law, and everyone knows that he will have a bright future after his meritorious service, he and Lily have not officially married, and although Zhang Hongyi now holds military power, after all, Lily has not been officially canonized by the imperial court, so the generals led by her only call her girl.

"It's all here, and I haven't encountered the rebels yet, maybe my lord has already cleared the remnants of the princelings in one fell swoop." When the soldier spoke, even if Lily sat in the carriage and didn't see his face, she could hear the meaning of her eyebrows dancing in his tone, she smiled, but soon she felt that something was not right, the wheels of the carriage were still rolling on the ground, but Lily vaguely felt a slight vibration underground.

She has been practicing Xingchen for two years, and her five senses are far more sensitive than others, this is a small group of people coming, and there should be something wrapped in the horse's hooves, so the movement is very small, it should be almost there to make her feel.

"Something isn't quite right, listen." Lily lifted the curtains of the car and said with a frown to the people outside.

The soldiers outside didn't care at first, just thought she was thinking nonsense, and smiled: "The girl thinks too much, now that she is closer to the capital, the adults lead the army first, and they are all almost at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the people and horses of the abolished prince are not the opponents of adults, and the girl is afraid that she has not seen adults for a long time, so she misses them." ”

As the group drew nearer, Lily shook her head, and the wheels of the carriage were still rolling on the ground, making a loud noise, which reduced everyone's hearing to a certain extent. Lily had a serious look on her face, and the soldier began to smile, seeing that her expression was not quite right, she thought about it and clamped her legs between the horse's belly, and shouted to stop.

Everyone didn't know what to do, the convoy slowly stopped, and the soldier jumped off his horse and pressed his ears to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the team that didn't know whether it was friend or foe came closer. Although the soldier is not as high as Lily's martial arts, but he has been on the battlefield for many years, and he is quite experienced, at this time he heard the sound of horses' hooves, his face changed, and the other party was getting closer and closer.

The number of people in the group is so large, and there is a woman, and the running and can't run fast, the soldier gritted his teeth, is not making up his mind, the team finally arrived, a group of about 20 people, wearing black clothes and covering their faces, riding a fast horse rushed, in the cloud, the person in front raised the crossbow in his hand, the sound of 'whooshing' breaking the air sounded, this is clearly to kill people and extinguish the mouth, the soldier has not had time to report the name of his general, and the horse under his horse was hit by an arrow in the eye, and began to launch a madness.

This team of people and horses did not speak and opened a killing ring, the team that protected Lily into Beijing was first caught off guard by this breakthrough, but soon came back to taste, everyone firmly protected Lily in the center, these people came prepared, and used the light and small bow and crossbow that only had in the army, and the killing and wounding of the bow and crossbow, but also caught everyone off guard, the bow and crossbow was smeared with poison, and soon the people and horses here were killed and injured in a small half, Lily wanted to get out of the carriage, but the outside was blocked firmly.

Hearing the screams outside, she kicked through the carriage, and the soldiers outside did not expect her strength to be so strong, and at the same time, Lily picked up a piece of the broken carriage board, and smashed it at the group of black-clothed men who were wielding bows and crossbows.

The advantage of the hand crossbow is that it is light and kills invisibly, but in terms of penetration, it is much worse than the bow. What's more, in such a close situation, it is already good to pierce the flesh of a person at most, Lily threw the carriage board over at this time, and the bow and crossbow could not penetrate this thing, and the carriage board was attacked by raindrops like arrows, but it did not lose its castration, and flew directly towards the group of black-clothed people.

The group of people killed when they saw someone, who would have expected Lily to react so quickly, not to mention that they didn't expect the manpower in the carriage to be so big, and when they reacted to dodge, they were on the horse, holding a bow and crossbow in their hands, and they couldn't hide if they wanted to.

There was a muffled grunt, and Lily jumped out of the carriage and snorted, "Catch them!" ”

At the beginning, this group of people suddenly broke in, everyone couldn't react, they could only defend passively, and many people died, and now Lily's actions reversed everyone's disadvantage, and several people were stunned for a while, and when they came to their senses, the angry group of people slapped their horses and rushed forward.

I thought that this group of people in black would flee as soon as they saw that the matter was revealed, but they didn't expect these people to flee, but after panicking, they quickly stabilized their position, saw a group of people rushing over, and began to feel out their weapons.

The man in black took out a silver spear, and in the foggy weather in the early morning, the silver spear flashed with cold light, as if he had seen the target, and rushed towards Lily, and someone stopped him all the way, but he picked it up under the horse with a shot. (To be continued......)
