Zhang Shixing ninja severe pain, feet slammed the horse's belly, desperately running forward, after turning a hillside, a team of Yan troops appeared in front, the chasing soldiers behind gradually approached, he was seriously wounded, he couldn't pull the bow, couldn't shoot the arrow, it seemed that he couldn't escape, in order to avoid being captured and humiliated again, he pulled out a feather arrow from the quiver, aimed at his throat, and was about to pierce it.

Suddenly, a horse sprang out from the Yan army on the opposite side, and the person on the horse waved to Zhang Shixing and shouted: "Is it Commander Zhang on the other side?" ”

Zhang Shixing stopped his hand and looked at the person carefully, only to see that this person was tall and long-armed, with big shoulders and a round waist, sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, big ears, holding a long lance, a heroic spirit, it was the deputy chief soldier of the Southern Army.

Zhang Shixing was overjoyed, hurriedly ran towards him, and shouted, "General Ping save me." ”

Ping An smiled: "You kid, it's really good luck." I was leading someone to disguise myself as Yan Jun to scout nearby, and I met you. ”

While he was talking, at this time, the man in black chased after him, and Ping'an glanced at Zhang Shixing, urged him to step forward, put the long lance horizontally, blocked the way, and shouted to the man in black: "Who is coming?" ”

When those black-clothed people saw that Ping'an and the others were wearing Yan Jun clothes and armor, they thought they were their own people, so they clasped their fists and arched their hands: "I will escort the prisoners to the camp of King Yan on the order of the prince of Yan, and ask the officials to make it convenient." After that, he lit up the waist card, and it was indeed a sergeant under Yan Shizi.

Ping'an then asked, "Where is the prisoner?" ”

Those black-clothed men pointed at Zhang Shixing.

Ping An waved his hand and said, "Take it." ”

The soldiers behind him rushed up and tied up Zhang Shixing, Zhang Shixing screamed in pain, struggled, and obediently gave in.

Ping An said to the black-clothed man: "Our family is about to return to the camp, so I will escort you over first, so that he will not escape again." ”

Those black-clothed men waved their hands again and again and said: "This official, you can't help it, this is a key offense, we will personally escort it to King Yan." ”

Ping'an said angrily: "Then it is even more necessary for me to escort it personally, you can go back, and see you at the camp." ”

One of the men in black asked, "What is this official called?" Who's under it? ”

Ping'an pondered for a moment and said: "This general's name is Bao'er, and he is a hundred households under Zhu Dudu, and you will know when you ask in the camp." ”

After saying that, Ping'an turned his horse's head, waved his hand and led more than 100 cavalry under his command to the south like a gust of wind.

After running out of more than ten miles, Ping'an saw that the black-clothed people did not follow, so he asked someone to loosen Zhang Shixing's bonds, Zhang Shixing hurriedly thanked Ping'an, and briefly recounted his capture.

When Ping An heard that he was seriously injured, he checked the injury and ordered someone to temporarily set up a stretcher between the two horses, so that Zhang Shixing could lie in the middle to reduce the bumps.

Ping'an was afraid that the Yan army would chase after him, so he didn't dare to stay longer, and continued to run south.

Those black-clothed people returned to the same place, at this moment Hu Ying mobilized his internal breath, had broken through the sealed acupoint, and regardless of the image, wearing only underwear, he jumped out of the carriage, shouting everywhere, looking for Zhang Shixing's traces, and heard everyone report that Zhang Shixing was held by a hundred households named Bao'er, and had been sent to the camp, he hurriedly changed his clothes, jumped into the carriage again, and urged everyone to rush to the Dingzhou camp.

After walking for about an hour, everyone finally came to the Dingzhou camp of the Yan army, Hu Ying explained his intention to the sergeant guarding the camp, and after a while, someone from inside introduced him into the big tent of the Chinese army.

Hu Ying saw King Yan sitting in the middle, and a group of soldiers lined up on both sides, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Hu Ying, a grass people, knocks on His Royal Highness King Yan." ”

Zhu Di, the king of Yan, received news from Huang Yan, a eunuch in Beiping, yesterday, saying that Emperor Jianwen had sent people to negotiate peace with the prince, intending to establish him as the king of Yan, with the Yellow River as the boundary, and allowing him to establish a country independently.

Zhu Di pretended not to know, remained silent, and said: "Righteous man, please get up, why did you come to the Dingzhou camp when you didn't assist the prince in Beiping to defend the city?" ”

Hu Ying stood up, presented the holy decree brought by Zhang Shixing with both hands, and said: "The master of Beijing came to issue a holy decree to the prince, and the prince did not dare to be self-dictatorated, so he specially ordered it to be sent to the camp and asked His Highness to open the seal." ”

The guards of the Chinese army took the holy decree and handed it to Zhu Di. Zhu Di saw that the seal was still there, obviously this holy decree had not been opened, he nodded with satisfaction, and then opened the holy decree to take a look, only to see that it was written: "Feng, heaven carrier, the emperor's edict said: Gao Chi, the eldest son of Yanshu Rendi, is generous and polite, loyal to the country, and can be worthy of a great responsibility." Now he is ordered to attack the lord of the king of Yan, take the river as the boundary, and all the land from the north belongs to him, and allow him to establish a country, and he will always be a vassal auxiliary. Chin this. ”

Zhu Di was furious when he saw it, threw the holy decree to the ground, and said, "He is the king of Yan, and I am a concubine?" ”

When everyone saw that King Yan was angry, they didn't know why, they looked at each other, and they didn't dare to speak.

Zhu Di pointed to Hu Yingyi and said: "What about Zhang Shixing, who came to deliver the decree, this king will break his body into ten thousand pieces." ”

When Hu Ying heard this, some of the second monks were confused, and said timidly: "On the lower road, I met a hundred security guards under Zhu Dudu, and he said that he would escort Zhang Shixing to the camp and hand it over to His Royal Highness King Yan for disposal, and then handed over the prisoner to this person. ”

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Neng and asked, "Where is this security guard, quickly call him up and ask what is going on." ”

Zhu Neng also felt inexplicable, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "His Royal Highness King Yan, there is no one under the general called Bao'an'er. ”

Hu Ying's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he shouted: "They are all dressed in our army uniforms, and they keep saying that they are hundreds of households under Zhu Dudu, is there any fake?" ”

Hu Ying's master, Yuan Hui, saw that the situation was not good, and also said to the side: "Zhu Dudu, think about it, you have hundreds of hundreds of households under your command, and you may have forgotten their names." ”

Zhu Neng's face sank and said: "Mr. Yuan, I govern the army very strictly, and the generals of more than 100 households are all promoted by me, how can I not know if there is such a person in the army?" ”

Hu Ying's face turned pale at the moment, sweating like rain, and he pleaded with Zhu Neng: "Zhu Dudu, think about whether there is such a person again?" ”

Zhu Neng asked impatiently: "In this case, let me ask you, what does this person look like?" ”

Hu Ying heard the black-clothed man under him describe the appearance of peace, so he fixed his mind and said: "This person is tall and has long arms, big shoulders and round waist, big ears, tiger back and bear waist, very powerful, holding a long lance. ”

After Zhu Neng heard this, he groaned for a long time, and suddenly laughed.

Yan Wang Zhu Di was a little displeased and said, "Zhu Neng, what are you laughing at?" ”

Zhu Neng bowed his hand and said: "His Royal Highness King Yan, these hundred households are pretended to be by Ping Bao'er, the chief soldier of the Southern Army." ”

When Zhu Di, the king of Yan, heard this, he suddenly realized that he was so angry that he was full of anger.

When Hu Ying heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "The grass people don't know the peace, so they let go of the criminals, and ask His Royal Highness King Yan to forgive their sins." ”

Yuan Heng hurriedly said on the side: "Governor Zhu, don't hurry up and send someone to chase after you." ”

Zhu Neng shook his head and said, "Presumably, that Ping Bao'er has already fled, where can he still catch up." ”

King Yan pointed at Hu Ying and scolded: "Useless things, this little thing can't be done, what's the use of keeping you?" ”

As soon as Yuan Heng heard that something was wrong, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded for his apprentice: "Your Highness, my apprentice is a mountain village man, he has never seen the world, and he was deceived by Naping Bao'er today, he will definitely atone for his sins one day, and beg His Highness to look at the old man's thin face and spare his life." ”

King Yan stepped down from his seat, helped Yuan Jue up, and said, "Mr. Yuan is polite." In several major battles, thanks to Mr. Yuan's guidance, our army was able to defeat the enemy army by gaining the upper hand, and Mr. Yuan made great contributions. For Mr. Yuan's sake, the king spared his life to see the aftermath. ”

Yuan Hui thanked him again and again, and Hu Ying also kowtowed.

King Yan waved his hand and ordered Yuan Heng to take Hu Ying down.

King Yan passed the holy decree to the generals and asked them how they would deal with it.

Since this matter involves the son of the world, everyone does not dare to say more.

Seeing that everyone was silent, King Yan ordered them to retreat, leaving Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County, alone, and asked, "Gao Xu, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu hesitated for a while and said, "Father, the child has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" ”

Yan Wang Zhu Di said in a deep voice: "There are no outsiders here, but it doesn't hurt you to talk about it." ”

Zhu Gaoxu whispered: "During the detention of my eldest brother and I in Beijing, my eldest brother had a very close relationship with the courtiers, especially with the young master teacher Fang Xiaoru, who had a very good relationship, and often talked about the past and the present, even late at night. It is said that my eldest brother and I were sent back to Peking because Fang Xiaoru said a lot of good things in front of the young master. At this moment, I want to repay the favor, it's human nature, my father doesn't have to care too much. ”

When Yan Wang Zhu Di heard this, he immediately stood up, slapped the table and said: "Okay, day and night, it's difficult to prevent thieves." The prince has different intentions, and we will return to Beiping immediately. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "This time, my father has been out for a long time, and I am afraid that there will be changes in Beiping City, so I should go back and rectify it." ”

The next day, the Yan army marched from Dingzhou and returned to Beiping. The southern army's transportation was restored, Sheng Yong in Dezhou, Zhending Ping'an, and Emperor Jianwen in Jingshi were all relieved, and the imperial court finally survived another crisis.

Halfway through the journey, Yongping Mansion 800 miles of fast horses reported urgently, saying that the governor Yang Wen led the Liaodong soldiers to attack the city again, and asked King Yan to send troops to rescue.

King Yan pondered for a moment, and then gave an order to his soldiers: "Liu Rongdu, who rescued Beiping last time, was very capable in command, and this time he was ordered to lead his troops to rescue Yongping. ”

After the soldiers received the order, they hurried to Beiping and sent the order to Liu Rong, who then led the army to Yongping to rescue.

Yang Wen heard that reinforcements were coming from Beiping, so he originally pretended to show the imperial court, then withdrew from the siege, and led the troops to Shanhaiguan to wait and see the situation.

Liu Rong was stationed in Yongping Mansion for more than ten days, and when he did not see Yang Wen attacking, he made a big fanfare, claiming to return to Beiping, and after going out of the city for fifty or sixty miles, he rolled up his flag and sneaked back into the city in the middle of the night, and ambushed him.

After Yang Wen detected that Liu Rong led his troops away, he really came to attack Yongping again. Liu Rong suddenly opened the city gate and sent troops to cover up the killing, Yang Wen was caught off guard, was killed and defeated, beheaded thousands of levels, and then heard that the Tatar troops under the King of Zhongning were attacking Guangningwei, and he was shocked, and hurriedly led the army back to rescue, and the siege of Yongping was relieved.

After January, King Yan led his troops back to Beiping City. Zhu Gaochi, the son of King Yan, led a group of civil and military officers in Beiping City to wait for the king in front of the main gate of Li, and when he saw the king of Yan approaching, Zhu Gaochi knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "The son of Gao Chi welcomes his father." ”

King Yan didn't get off the horse to help, but just said coldly: "I'm a concubine, how dare I work for King Yan?" ”

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he stayed on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
