200 Death of a parent
The news of Lan Junyao's arrival couldn't hide from Lu Zhirun's ears and eyes, and Ling Qixuan took her with her, appearing on the wall of Lingxiao City in such a grand manner, others didn't know her identity, Lu Zhirun was scheming, where could he not know.
In Chongling City, in addition to Lu Zhirun, there was another man in a python robe sitting with him in the city guard's mansion. In the room were the soldiers kneeling in the city, and he reported to his master the movements on the opposite wall.
The man sitting at the head of Lu Zhirun looked at the past and looked two points similar to Shuang Xiujing, but it was the puppet prince Shuang Bichi who was picked by the queen, and he was a partial branch of the royal family of the Southern Frost Empire, and his blood was not pure. If it weren't for the fact that Emperor Nanshuang was not angry, the harem was only a girl, and the queen would not have bothered to find this man.
He looked at Lu Zhirun with a flattering face, this person usually doesn't learn at home, relying on the little blood with the royal family, he has made ten top ten, fighting cocks and lackeys, robbing people's girls, he is proficient in everything. On that day, he was wandering on the street with a few fox friends and dogs, and he might as well be suddenly surrounded by a group of royal guards and wanted to take him to the palace.
This frightened a fart and urine, and the people clapped their hands one by one for unknown reasons. Unexpectedly, when he arrived in the palace, the queen mother looked at him carefully and asked him a few more questions. He didn't have much ink in his stomach, and the question of answering questions was also a donkey's lips and a horse's mouth, and he didn't want the queen to be satisfied, so he left behind to be the idle prince who was the envy of countless people.
Hearing the spy talk about the importance that Ling Qixuan and Lan Qingyue attached to that person, a flash of excitement appeared in Shuang Bichi's eyes, and he suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted the spy's words: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, if we arrest that person as a threat, they will definitely give in." So that the two of them are maintained in every way, presumably the taste of that person must be extremely **. After saying that, he licked his lips obscenely, looking obscene.
He seemed to have thought of the person's tactful and coquettish appearance under him, and he must be a little more romantic than the most seductive little man in Cuiyanlou, but when he turned his head, he was frightened by the cruel color in Lu Zhirun's eyes, and he unconsciously restrained his face, how could he forget that the queen's aunt had confessed, telling him not to be presumptuous in front of this person.
Lu Zhirun resisted the urge to break his neck, it was a miracle that such a person could survive by his side, if it weren't for the fact that he was the one sent by the woman, he would have been in a different place.
His prey is not to be touched by others, not to mention that it is unusual. As a good hunter, the most interesting thing is to make the prey willingly jump into his trap. After a few days of not seeing him, the prey was a little arrogant, and he laughed and told the spies to continue to investigate, and report to him again if there was a situation.
In this generation, the Southern Frost Kingdom has declined, the Southern Frost royal family is not prosperous, and the only person who can be responsible is the sixth prince Shuang Xiujing, who has been in exile for more than 20 years before returning, how can he tolerate the possibility of the Southern Frost Empire coming back to life.
The old emperor was so angry with the queen as early as half a month ago that the prodigal woman now only knows how to play with the guards, indulging in the desire of **, and I don't know where to find a straw bag and stuff it to him, which is called the future monarch of the Southern Frost Empire.
After this war, the once glorious Southern Frost Empire will definitely not be able to escape the end of breaking the country, and he has no reason to let go of the fat in his mouth, and the Southern Frost Empire can only submit to the Western Continent Empire. He will control the Heavenly Maiden in his hands again, and four points of the world will eventually be ruled by him.
Lu Zhirun played a good chess hand, and he started his hands and feet in the Dongling Empire early, everything developed step by step according to the tricks he planned, even if there were deranged chess pieces, he would definitely return them to their original positions as soon as possible, just like the Heavenly Maiden Lan Junyao.
Yin Shi is the most difficult time for people, and when they see that they have to change shifts, the soldiers at this time must be the most lax. Early in the morning of the second day, at such an hour, there was a constant resounding outside Lingxiao City, and the sound of insults woke up the soldiers defending the city, and Nanshuang's army launched the first round of offensive.
On the walls of Lingxiao City, the large stones that had been prepared for a long time, hot water and arrow rain densely attacked the city. The veterans straightened the brims of their hats, listened to the filthy words of the city, and each did his best to repay them.
"These bunnies, only they can do this kind of thing. The person who said this was the veteran who used to laugh at Lan Qingyue.
"You old thing, the general told you to guard the city, but you were lazy, beware that the general heard and cut off your head. The people on the side were fighting with him to see who threw more stones, and the speed of his subordinates couldn't help but speed up.
"Don't talk about Lao Tzu first, look at your little rabbit, the eye droppings in the corners of your eyes haven't been wiped clean. The veteran laughed at him unceremoniously.
"Nonsense, black paint, which eye you see. He said this, but he believed the old soldier's words, and wiped his sleeve in the corner of his eye.
It is not the first time that the army of the Southern Frost Empire has done a sneak attack, and the soldiers are also used to this way, some soldiers are still dreaming of potpourri in the spring one moment ago, and the next moment they will pick up the water basin at hand and buckle it under the city wall, which is completely due to inertia.
In such a quiet night, a pair of centaurs were coated with the ashes left over from the cooking, and they secretly walked towards the west gate of Lingxiao City one by one. Lingxiao City sits in the north and faces south, the south gate and Chongling City sit opposite each other, at this moment the south gate is staging a fierce sneak attack and counter-sneak attack battle, at a glance, the defense of the west gate seems a little thin.
This group of people only set up a stout wooden pier and ladder for the siege gate, and even the movement of the road under their feet was light and light, and they wished to put on their wings one by one and fly over.
Sensing that the hour had come, a small detachment of about fifty men was slowly lowered from the eastern wall with hanging baskets, all of them wearing black tights, covered with black cloths, revealing only a pair of shining eyes. One of them carried a small jug, sniffed it carefully, and the pot contained pine grease.
The speed of this small team was very fast, they avoided the enemy, and after a while, they were far away from the range of Lingxiao City, they tightened the rope behind their backs, whether this battle was won or lost, it depended on whether they could succeed or not.
Most of the troops in Chongling City went to work, and Lu Zhirun only left thirty percent of the people to guard the city, which made it convenient for this small team to act. They stood close to the heavy mausoleum and poured all the pine grease they were carrying on the city walls.
I don't know if Lu Zhirun gave them too much confidence, until these fifty people smeared all the pine grease, and the people defending the city did not see any movement. The fifty men finished what they were doing, and they all gathered around the leader.
The person who led the sneak attack was indeed Frost Xiujing, and because of the identity of the Sixth Prince, there was no one more suitable to do this than him. When discussing countermeasures, Ling Qixuan said so.
He nodded to the man beside him, who consciously crouched beside him, and he stepped on his hand and rose upward, and then clung to the wall, on the smooth wall he walked alone like a gecko, and his every rise and fall tugged at the hearts of the people under the corner, and finally the kiln turned over, and finally climbed the wall.
When the people guarding the city wall saw him, the whole person was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't imagine that someone really climbed up to such a high city wall, and the warning sound in his mouth had not yet reached his throat, and his neck was cut off by Shuang Xiujing's knife.
Shuang Xiujing caught his body that was about to fall, dragged him to a dark place and pulled his clothes on himself, and made a whole set of movements, but none of the people next to him noticed any abnormal movement. A nightingale's cry sounded, and the people on the side laughed and scolded: "In the middle of the night, even this bird is lonely and impatient." ”
A few slightly louder nightingale cries at the foot of the city were of varying heights, as if echoing the previous one. The soldiers guarding the city did not doubt him, and said: "There is really a male bird on board, and when this battle is won, the brothers will go back to their mother-in-law's bed to stay warm for a night." ”
His words caused the people around him to laugh, and Frost Xiujing hung the rope from the city wall, and while paying attention to the movements of the city defenders, the people below climbed up with their hands and feet. They imitated the practice of frost repairing the scenery, and wiped the necks of these soldiers guarding the city one by one and changed their clothes, and before they knew it, the walls of Chongling City were another world.
On the side of Lingxiao City, the ** team of the Southern Frost Emperor, who thought they could sneak attack a surprise, arrived at the west gate of Lingxiao City, and they carried the siege wood on their shoulders, and the torches on the city wall were lit one after another, and the dense crowd stretched their bows and arrows, shooting at the people and horses below like locusts crossing the border.
The men wailed, and no longer caring about the sneak attack, the girl retreated. It's just that it's easy to come and it's hard to go, and the first round of feathered arrows has already lost a small number of centaurs here, while others have been crushed to death by siege logs. The second round of arrow rain was already full, aiming at these panicked Southern Frost Country soldiers, and in the end, only a few were able to escape back.
The south city gate is also a dead battle at this moment, Lu Zhirun is hiding in the army of the South Frost Kingdom, and is slowly approaching the direction of the city gate, and the soldiers on the wall of Chongling City only wake up at this moment, but it is too late. The city gate had been controlled by them, and they set fire to the city when Ling Qixuan issued a small order on the opposite wall.
Lu Zhirun had already followed the soldiers of the Southern Frost Kingdom besieging the city to the foot of Lingxiao City, and was about to make the next move, so a long call came from the city wall: "Lu Zhirun, you don't have to hide, I know you are down there." ”
Ling Qixuan's long call used three points of internal force, and he got up and floated up the city wall, surrounded by a circle of vigilant soldiers. Ling Qixuan looked firmly in the direction where Lu Zhirun was, and that kind of gaze made him have nothing to hide.
"It's worthy of being a terrifying god of war, and I really have some ability, yes, I'm here. Lu Zhirun pushed aside the guards who were blocking him and looked at Ling Qixuan on the high wall.
"There are old friends here, so they must come out. His right arm was raised and lowered, and the soldiers of the Southern Frost Nation behind him stopped their attack and stood neatly behind him.
Under Ling Qixuan's order, the soldiers on the city wall also stopped attacking, and the soldiers who had rested behind them replaced those people who had just arrived, and drew arrows with bows and arrows, as long as these people made any abnormal move, they would end up in a different place.
Lan Junyao was dressed in men's clothes, standing side by side with Ling Qixuan in another convex groove, taking advantage of the convenience of the terrain, Lan Qingyue stood behind her sister in case she was unprepared. She looked at Lu Zhirun, with no joy or sadness on her face.
It was this appearance that made Lu Zhirun unstoppable, and he raised the Bichun in his hand towards the city wall. At this moment, the sky was slightly dark, and although others did not know what the green bead was, it was exactly what the people on the city wall had planned.
"This thing is familiar to the two of you. Lu Zhirun tossed the beads between his left and right hands, and said provocatively to the people on the city wall: "If you want this thing, you will follow me back to the Western Continent, what, agree or not?"
He lifted Bi Chun high, as if with some strength in the next moment, the Bi Chun in his hand would never exist in this world again.
"Don't think about it. Ling Qixuan glanced at him disdainfully, as if he was talking about a dream.
Lan Junyao waved her hand to stop Ling Qixuan's words that she was about to say, she looked pensive, and her face swayed several times.
"Eighth Prince, General Ling, you shouldn't have the right to sit down and make decisions for others. Lu Zhirun said sarcastically when he saw this.
"Okay, I promise you. Lan Junyao's face was full of determination, and before the words fell, she suddenly jumped down from the city wall, this action came so suddenly, Lan Qingyue only caught the corner of her sister's clothes, Ling Qixuan was about to jump down, but her subordinates hugged her legs.
On the top of the tower of Chongling City, the face of Shuang Xiujing, who had been waiting for a long time, turned pale, and he made a gesture behind him, he first threw the torch inserted on the top of the city tower towards the foot of the city wall, and the person behind him did the same, and the loose grease met the torch, and it soon burned. In addition, it is early autumn at this moment, the weather is hot, the wind fuels the fire, and the entire city wall is buried in a sea of fire.
They set fire to everything that could be burned on the tower, and then they turned around and ran towards the bottom of the tower, running out of the city while shouting loudly: "Bad thing, the people of the Western Continent have killed all the soldiers guarding the city, they have set fire to the city, everyone run!"
The shouts were heard far away in the city, and one by one the families in the city opened the doors, and when they saw that the city gate was really as he said, they couldn't help but panic, and they didn't have time to clean up, so they pulled their families and fled outside the city.
Passing by the foot of the city, I really saw some tokens scattered at the foot of the city wall, and the two big characters of the West Continent were very eye-catching. The people were angry, and it turned out that the help that the prince of the Western Continent kept saying was nothing more than the ambition of the wolf.
The time for this incident to happen is also short, since Ling Qixuan climbed the high wall, Frost Xiujing organized his subordinates to start planning. The angry people rushed in the direction of the Southern Frost Emperor's ** team, they wanted to reprimand their compatriots, why were they still obsessed at this time.
Lan Junyao's target is very clear, it is Bichun in Lu Zhirun's hand, but where can things be so easy, Lu Zhirun tucked Bichun into his waist, and his body was about to rise from the horse to avoid Lan Junyao.
There was a person behind him, but he suddenly attacked, and when Lu Zhirun slapped the horse's head, he made a lightning shot and got Bi Chun, who he was hiding in the back waist, into his hands. Lan Junyao's car also changed, her upside-down body suddenly flipped in mid-air, and she reached out to pick up the person who stole Bi Chun.
During this time, the people of the Southern Frost Empire had rushed to the tail of the army, and they were rampaging through the ranks, and when they saw the people dressed in Western Continent, they went up and beat them indiscriminately, rolling pins and stir-fry spoons together, and the whole formation was also rushed by them.
Lu Zhirun was furious, and was about to desperately arrest Lan Junyao and the others, but the secret guard beside him was protecting him to the side, and before leaving, he glanced at Ling Qixuan with a smug face on the high wall, and the anger in his eyes almost wanted to swallow him.
Lan Junyao successfully got Bichun, and Frost Xiujing also handed over the West Phoenix Claw to her last night. She didn't care what the endgame behind her was, she was accompanied by Mo Shi and rushed back to Gyeonggi day and night, and along the way, she had a good horse arranged by Ling Qixuan to hand over to her.
She worked so tirelessly that she even jumped directly into the high walls of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She rushed into her mother's room, and happily showed her father what she was holding in her hand, but there were two people lying quietly on the bed, and their eyebrows were peaceful, as if they had fallen asleep.
Bichun in Lan Junyao's hand fell to the ground and bounced a few times, she knelt down by her father's bed, and said, "Father, mother, my daughter is back, and I have retrieved the antidote." ”
