Yuwen Chengchao naturally saw the old marquis spurting out a mouthful of blood, and was taken aback, rushing straight over like a hungry wolf.

"The eldest son!" Yuan Shangyu shouted, stretched out his hand and wanted to hold Yuwen Chengchao, but Yuwen Chengchao's speed was extremely fast, and he was empty for a while, and in the blink of an eye, Yuwen Chengchao had already rushed out three or four steps away.

The old marquis of Yuwen naturally heard the movement here, turned around, and saw Yuwen Chengchao rushing over, and said sharply with all his strength: "Stand down!" ”

Yuwen Chengchao's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he looked at the old marquis in surprise.

"Stand down!" The old marquis repeated.

Yuwen Chengchao really didn't know what was going on, but he saw the white shopkeeper say to this side: "Don't worry, the eldest prince, there will be nothing wrong with the Hou Ye, we have some small things to discuss, you listen to the Hou Ye's orders, and retreat for the time being." ”

Yuwen Chengchao knew that the appearance of the white shopkeeper was unusual, but this retainer of the Yuwen family for more than 20 years, as at the beginning, had a gentle tone and a faint smile on his face, which seemed to be no different from the elder he was familiar with.

He slowly retreated with some reluctance.

"Using two forged secret letters, the Yuwen family thought that they had found a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to eliminate the Zhen family. After succeeding, the Yuwen family was killed on the charge of indiscriminately killing the marquis of the imperial court, so that the two major families of Xiling could be easily eradicated, which was really a good means, a good means. The old marquis of Yuwen recovered, and said with a mocking smile on his lips: "Jing Zhai, you are really far-sighted, and the old man is ashamed of himself." Gazing at the white shopkeeper, he asked, "The old man wants to know, is all this the layout of the imperial court, or are you planning it alone?" ”

"Xiling's biggest enemy is the Xiling family, and cutting off the Xiling family is the strategy of the imperial court." The white shopkeeper said: "I just followed the strategy of the imperial court and made a little trick to make the Hou Ye smile." ”

The old marquis bowed his head and said, "What you said is not wrong. Xiling's biggest enemy is indeed the Xiling family, the Xiling family has a home but no country, otherwise there would be no today's situation. He glanced at Fan Ziqi and said, "The Fan family has naturally secretly knelt down to the court a long time ago, and the old man is very curious, how can the court accept the Fan family's bowing." ”

"Don't hide it from my brother, the Fan family promised the court that they would fully cooperate with the court to eliminate the Xiling family." Fan Ziqi said: "For example, this time, the soldiers and horses of the Fan family are completely subject to the dispatch of the imperial court, and in addition, after the Tang army is stationed in Xiling, within half a year, my Fan family will follow the will of the saint and move the whole clan into the customs." The saint Buddha Heart has given the Fan family a manor in the Guannei, which is enough to make the Fan family worry about food and clothing, and since then, the children of the Fan family have devoted themselves to farming, never seeking officials, and living on the land given by the saint. ”

The old marquis smiled faintly and said, "I see." Looking at the vacant east seat, he said, "There are four seats set up tonight, in addition to the three of us, there should be one more guest, but I don't know when that guest will arrive?" ”

"It should be almost there." Fan Ziqi looked up at the sky and said, "The life and death of the Yuwen family will be decided by him." ”

The old Hou Ye said "oh", and the white shopkeeper had already said: "Hou Ye, I have been in the Yuwen family for more than 20 years, and the Hou Ye treats me like a guest, although I am loyal to the imperial court and want to help the imperial court exterminate the Xiling family, I don't want to see the Yuwen family suffer a catastrophe." ”

"What Jing Zhai said is very true." Fan Ziqi said: "So I discussed with Jing Zhai, hoping that my brother can take the initiative to ask for sin, so that the saint may be able to open up the net and let the Yuwen family have a way to live." The two of us will also try our best to intercede for the Yuwen family. ”

"Who is the person who decides the life and death of the Yuwen family?" The old marquis asked, "Is it an envoy sent by the sage?" ”

"Brother, don't worry." Fan Ziqi said: "He will be there soon." He picked up the teapot and poured tea for all three.

The night wind is cold, and when it is approaching, it is getting closer and closer to dawn.

Suddenly, a low trumpet sound was heard from the east, and it was not long before the sound of horses' hooves was faintly heard from the east

People's eyes immediately looked to the east, and in a moment, dozens of figures appeared from the east, fast horses like flying, under the moonlight, only to see the dozens of horses with a faint cold light, the knights on the horses were all dressed in black horses, between the flying horses, the big horses floated.

As the rider approached, it could already be seen that the horses were equipped with armor and golden masks on their heads, and the knights on horseback were also in black armor, and all the knights were wearing strange masks on their faces, and the bridge of their noses was like spikes.

Yuan Shangyu saw it clearly, his face changed greatly, and he lost his voice: "Yes..... It's a night crow, a black ..... Black Feather Night Raven! ”

This White Tiger Battalion Commander, who had always been calm and composed, was shocked for the first time, and his voice trembled.

Black Feather Night Raven!

As soon as the four words came out, everyone around them changed color.

Qin Xiao was also taken aback.

Of course, everyone knows the reputation of the Black Feather Night Raven.

Sixteen years ago, 100,000 Wutuo iron cavalry was invincible in Xiling, almost everyone felt that Xiling was bound to be swallowed by Wutuo, Xiling Xia Du was killed in battle, the disparity in strength was huge, and the remaining 2,000 Du Guards were besieged by tens of thousands of iron cavalry in Heiyang City.

Although the Xiling family has begun to support the Duhu army, after Heiyang City was besieged, all the supplies were cut off by the Wutuos, and Heiyang City became an isolated city, and there was a shortage of soldiers and food, and it was only a matter of time before it fell.

The way of the imperial court, Heiyang City, was in danger, but it was unable to send troops to rescue.

At the moment of life and death, in that snowy night, General Black Feather took thirty light cavalry under his command and rushed into the camp of the Vedas with a suicidal attack, and before the Vedas could react, they killed dozens of enemies, rushed directly to the big tent of the Vedic Khan, and captured the Khan on a snowy night.

Those thirty light cavalry were the night crows under the command of General Black Feather.

At the cost of no casualties, the king of the Veda Khan was captured alive, and the king of the Veda Khan made an oath that he would not set foot in the Kunlun Pass again in his lifetime, and 100,000 iron horsemen returned with a feather.

This battle completely reversed the situation of Xiling, General Black Feather snatched Xiling from the mouth of the Vedas, and the first battle shocked the world, General Black Feather became the god of war worshiped by all Tang troops, and Black Feather Night Raven also became the strongest cavalry in the world.

After the Veda Rebellion, General Black Feather abided by the agreement between the imperial court and the Xiling family, and led the immortal army named by the sage to withdraw to the Guannai, and the Black Feather Night Raven never set foot in the land of Xiling again.

Sixteen years later, the Black-Feathered Night Raven has finally returned.

Although the Black Feather Night Raven has not set foot in the land of Xiling for sixteen years, their legend has never disappeared in this land, and everyone knows that if it were not for the Black Feather General who led the Black Feather Night Raven to capture the King of the Veda Khan, then Xiling has already been the territory of the Vedic people, and the people who grew up in this land will either become the soul of the Vedic people under the knife, or become the slaves of the Vedic people under their feet.

The people of Xiling are grateful to General Black Feather, and they are even more in awe of Black Feather Night Crow.

Under the night, the black feather night crow suddenly appeared, whether it was the tiger rider of the Yuwen family or the fan rider of the Fan family, in addition to being frightened, a sense of awe had risen in his heart.

Tiger Rider and Fan Cavalry in order to prepare for the fight at any time, are riding on horseback, at this time knowing that it is the black feather night crow of the world that is powerful, the cavalry on both sides of the cavalry actually got off the war horse, led their war horses, and bowed slightly to the black feather night crow over there, in order to show respect for this cavalry.

Qin Xiao also showed excitement.

When he was in the Governor's Mansion of Turtle City, he heard those yacha people mention the Black Feather Night Raven countless times, in addition to the mythical Snow Night Capture Khan, the Yacha heard more legends about this cavalry from somewhere, and in their mouths, the Black Feather Night Raven was like a god descending to earth.

Qin Xiao has never tired of listening.

Even if he is right

The legend of the Black Feather Night Raven is like a stream, but once you hear someone talk about these people, you will definitely come forward, even if you know that what those Yacha said is suspected of exaggeration, but the Black Feather Night Raven who took Xiling from the mouth of the Vedic is not too much to praise or even myth.

He even fantasized in his dreams about the majestic posture of the Black Feather Night Raven roaming the field.

The yacha all said that the most difficult thing to be a soldier was not to become a dragon scale warrior in the palace, but to become a night crow of the black feather general.

If you are born in a powerful family and rely on connections, you may also become a dragon scale warrior, but if you are not qualified, even if you are a royal noble, you will not be able to become a black feather night crow.

The Black Feather Night Raven stopped only a hundred steps away from the wine table, and under the gaze of everyone, a horse slowly came out of the middle of the Black Feather Night Crow, who was wearing a battle armor and a war helmet, tall and mighty, wearing a big sword, turned over and dismounted, and raised his hand, the Black Feather Night Raven behind him turned over and dismounted with the same standard movement at almost the same time, and then stood beside his war horse, his body was straight, like a javelin, motionless.

"That's General Black Feather?" Qin Xiao was excited in his heart, and when he saw the warrior striding towards the wine table, he couldn't help but ask Yuan Shangyu.

Yuan Shangyu shook his head and said: "I only heard the general's name, but I haven't seen him, and I can't be sure." Then he frowned and said, "But apart from the general, who can mobilize the Black Feather Night Raven?" But the general was sitting in Jiebei Mansion, how could he suddenly come to Xiling with the Black Feather Night Raven? ”

The mighty warlord strode to the wine table, except for the white shopkeeper's inconvenient legs and unable to get up, Yuwen Old Marquis and Fan Ziqi had already gotten up, and at the same time bowed to the general.

The general is nearly sixty years old, but his body is very strong, his gestures are full of the neat and neat atmosphere of a soldier, his beard is like a needle, he is smiling, and he arches his hand and says: "The two marquis, I haven't seen you for many years, you have always been good?" After 16 years of separation, Su returned to his hometown and was happy in his heart. He raised his hand and said, "Please be seated!" ”

"When the general arrived, he naturally changed tea to wine." Fan Ziqi took the wine jug and poured it full of wine for General Hei Yu.

After General Hei Yu sat down, he took off his battle helmet, revealing his gray hair, looked at the old marquis of Yuwen, without too much nonsense, and said straight to the point: "The white wolf king of Wutuo was killed, Brother Nalu Sheng is ambitious, no accident, within two years, he will definitely move eastward." Xiling is now scattered, two years has been very hasty, but if you hurry up, you can still be prepared, the mistakes of sixteen years ago cannot be staged again, Xiling must be completely under the control of the imperial court to be able to prepare for the war. ”

Old Marquis Yuwen's lips moved slightly, and he stopped talking.

"The old marquis killed Changxin Hou tonight, this matter is big or small." General Hei Yu said neatly: "I don't want to kill them all, if the old marquis has no opinion, I will leave for Kyoto as soon as possible to apologize to the sage." Mr. Bai's forgery of the secret letter naturally cannot be concealed from the saint, but it can not be publicized to the public, and when the old marquis leaves for Kyoto, he will ask you to present a fold on his behalf and you will take it to Kyoto. When you arrive in Kyoto, the saint will inevitably summon you, and when the time comes, you will present my excerpt to the saint, and the saint will be lenient and will be able to keep the Yuwen family safe. ”

The old Marquis Yuwen was stunned, suddenly stood up, tidied up his clothes, bowed deeply, and said: "The general is grateful for giving the Yuwen family a way to live, regardless of his previous suspicions." ”

General Hei Yu raised his hand and said, "Master Hou doesn't have to thank me. After entering Beijing, the sage will keep you as an official in Kyoto, and the Yuwen family will also migrate from Xiling to the customs, and the sage will give the Yuwen family a fief. If it will be Hou Ye, it will let the clansmen live in the fiefdom, after being an official in Kyoto for a year, Hou Ye can go to the sage to excerpt the son, return to seclusion, go to the fief to reunite with his family, since then the Yuwen family sunrise and sunset and rest, although it will not be rich and expensive, but it is also worry-free, the most important thing is to ensure the safety of future generations. ”
