"How was this new room going? It's cooler, but you see how bright the night pearl on the bottom of the sea shines here. Chun Yu Xianzhong looked at the man's face, as if he was showing off his merits, and like a child waiting for his praise after finishing his homework.

He continued: "I know that you don't like these luxurious things, but as you told me, don't we just spend our money for our families? ”

"I'm going to ask you for the guilt, Hengpu Pass has been lost, and Quzhou Mansion has also been lost. But you should be able to forgive me, after all, you went to bed happily, and it was inevitable that you would leave this mess to me. He lowered his head, clasped his fingers, and said, "I'm not good at this." ”

He also lay down, lying on the ice. Although he was wearing a fox fur, the biting coolness also seeped into his clothes little by little with his breathing. He held his head in his hands, blinked his eyes, and looked at the man, as if waiting for his response.

But there was no response.

He was not surprised, and after a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "What do you say would have happened if you hadn't helped that woman block that sword?" ”

"I may be a famous painter in the Central Plains, so I don't have to worry about these pickled things of the princes competing for hegemony." The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and the more he spoke, the less confident his tone became. "Fortunately, there are still sixteen days, and we will be able to meet in sixteen days."

Speaking of this, he suddenly became excited: "The national teacher said, as long as I catch all the nine hundred and ninety-nine girls, and when the sixteenth moon of the first month is full, I can use these magic circles drawn around me, and the national teacher will be able to extract their vitality and inject it into your body, and then you will be able to come back." ”

Saying that, he began to be a little sluggish again: "But they don't believe me, Yang Nanpu said that this matter is suspicious, and the ministers also said that I was deceived by the national teacher, and there is no magic to bring the dead back to life in this world." At this time, he was like a wronged child.

"But, I believe, because I've seen the Marriott Mystic, ten years ago I was a Marriott Mystic, and after stabbing you, I saved your last breath, so that today, you can still lie on this ice bed." He said it with some urgency.

"You know, I also captured a top-notch high-level Golden Pill Warrior." He seemed happy, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, as if his purpose had been achieved. "You know, the vitality of the Golden Pill Warrior is far beyond ordinary people, but this thing has been studied by Marriott for hundreds of years, and it is difficult to find a truly high-level Golden Pill Warrior. The national teacher said that when the magic circle is urged, with the vitality of the Golden Pill Warriors, they will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort. I will definitely be able to come back on the sixteenth day of the first month. ”

His eyes were full of expectation and longing, and he said, "At that time, I will return the throne to you, and it would be good for you to return my brother to me." ”

"They all kowtow openly and respectfully, but I know that they secretly don't know how many times they have scolded the tyrant. Come back, I really can't take this throne. ”

After speaking, he leaned on his brother's shoulder and was silent for a long time.

As the sub-clock rings, time enters the new year. The fireworks of the entire Xiyue City resounded throughout the Canghe Duan Mountain. No one noticed that at the southern foot of Duanshan, a group of dark shadows were quietly coming.

Just when the entire Xiyue City was immersed in the festive atmosphere, Canghe Water Village suddenly launched a cannon that transmitted the signal. This represents an early warning, although the people in the city think it is an ordinary firework, but it is not so beautiful. But the soldiers at the palace lookout were professionally trained, and immediately realized that something was wrong, so they immediately reported the situation.

After all, Xiyue City has not seen soldiers for thirty years since the positioning of the Great Ceremony. Since the artillery moved its capital to this place ten years ago, it has stood on top of the water village, and it has not seen any movement for ten years. It can be inherited from the family law of the eleventh family of the clan, and the matter of early warning of cannons must be recognized by the sergeant no matter when.

In the secret room, Chun Yu Xianzhong was forced to return to the third floor by a fierce knock on the door. But I heard a report from the captain of the city defense battalion: "My lord, a large number of troops suddenly appeared at the southern foot of Duanshan to attack my Canghe Water Village, intending to attack the city. ”

"What? How is it possible, in the past, the Great Liang would be allied, and the princes agreed not to fight in the New Year. At this time, how could someone sneak attack, or from the dangerous and difficult Duanshan. ”

At this time, on the Canghe Water Village, the military flag of the word "Liu" has been replaced, and the west wind is cold, blowing the iron armor cold light moon, and blowing the thousand-year-old war worries. On the water village, the young general was stubborn and stubborn, and only listened to the report from his subordinates: "General, the water village has been occupied." The gate of the village has been opened, but it is just a boat, and the water of Lixiu Lake is deep, and it may be difficult to force it to cross. ”

"It's okay, let the two and three battalions follow me to storm the West Gate, and you can wait for the secret crossing to sneak in."

"Yes!"

The general looked at Xiyue City with fireworks in the distance, and said: "Let me pay a New Year's greeting to this Chunyu prince, don't say that my king renounces the covenant and reneges on the alliance, but we only came out when the time comes." After saying that, a sly smile.

In the Wangyun Tower, the battle reports are one after another.

"Report! Canghe Water Village is lost! ”

"Report! A large number of enemy troops appeared at the west gate! ”

Chun Yu Xianzhong said: "Whose army is there and how many people? ”

The lieutenant replied, "It's still investigating." ”

"Rubbish! When people call the door, they don't know who called! ”

"The king is angry, it's really dark and night, it's hard to tell."

At this time, another sergeant came to report: "Simon is in a hurry, please send reinforcements to the king!" In addition, when you look at it with a diorama, the word 'Liu' is written on the flag of the enemy army, and it seems that the armor is Hengzhou soldiers and horses. ”

Chun Yu Xianzhong patted his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Chunqing! Liu Senke really sent him to be stronger than the Hundred Rivers and Thirteen Mountains! "I'm about to knock the wall off the paint." Get my armor! ”

"Great King, although the West Gate is tight at this time, considering that the water village has been lost, the enemy army may also force its way into the city from Lixiu Lake. And there are only 2,000 city defense battalions and 3,000 palace guards in the city, but I am afraid that the troops will be insufficient! ”

"The deepest part of Lixiu Lake can reach 100 zhang, with a radius of dozens of miles, and it is difficult for the army to cross without boats. Quickly order the palace guards, climb the palace lookout and Wangyun Tower, condescendingly deal with the bow and arrow, and the city defense battalion will come to the west gate with me! Chun Yu Xianzhong put on the armor with the help of the soldiers, and then carried the knife to the west gate, the southern tour did not experience the war for a long time, the famous generals withered, at this time the capital was attacked, and the lord himself was asked to put on the armor. If it weren't for Chun Yu Xianzhong as a prince, he often followed the first king Chun Yu Xianbo to lead troops to inspect the state capitals, but I was afraid that this huge Xiyue City would not be able to pick out a soldier.

At this time, Liu Chunqing was commanding the battle at the west gate of Xiyue City, they were lightly armed and simple, although there were more than 10,000 troops, but Xiyue City was high and deep, if he would never dare to attack this fortified city with light infantry on weekdays. But today I knew that the city was empty, so I came here to sneak attack. I think that two months ago, when Liu Senke, the king of Hengzhou, confessed to him, he took 20,000 horses and horses into a hundred rivers and thirteen mountains, until the Canghe camp poured out, and then assembled in Duanshan, in order to capture Xiyue in one fell swoop on this day.

"The military division attacked the east and the west, and the two of the Mu clan were suspected soldiers to feint against Yuzhang, and put on the eastward trend of my Hengzhou, so that the southern tour could concentrate on the enemy of Hengpu Pass, and I came to make this immortal achievement!" Liu Chunqing, a general in Hengzhou, is Liu Senke's confidant, personable, cunning, and cunning. Baixiao Pavilion is the sixty-seventh on the list of famous generals in the world, and at this moment, he is wearing chain armor and holding a Cangran Linming sword, ranking seventieth on the Kyushu weapon list. Wearing a square scarf without a scarf, he is a dashing young general.

On the city wall, Chun Yu Xianzhong also used a diorama to observe the situation under the city, saying that there were no less than 10,000 troops under the city, and he thought that the coast of Lixiu Lake should also be defended. He then ordered at the head of the city: "Send two groups of heralds at once, and one group will be sent to the nearby state capitals to transfer garrisons from all over the country." A group went east of the Canghe River to the south to patrol the city, and ordered the three princes to lead the willow camp to rescue. ”

The city defense lieutenant asked, "Then is General Yang recalled together?" ”

"No, the new original can't be lost, and the southern tour can't be lost!"

As the order was issued, I only heard the sound of the city beating on the city gate getting louder and louder. And on the castle tower, there are not enough crossbows and archers, if you can't stop this offensive, you won't be able to bargain for any bargains when the enemy enters the city and starts street fighting!

But at this moment, a cold arrow shot towards Chun Yu Xianzhong, and Chun Yu dodged with a side face, but saw that the cold arrow was firmly nailed to the pillar behind him. But I heard another person shouting in the city: "Liu Chunqing congratulates the king of the southern patrol for a good New Year!" ”

This is obviously humiliating, but Chun Yu Xianzhong has no time to deal with him. I only heard him instruct the colonel: "Quickly send an order, order all the fast catchers, prison guards, and regimental training in the city to gather at the West Gate!" ”

The little colonel had to be ordered to go, Chun Yu Xianzhong thought to himself, in this way, he could get another 3,000 soldiers, 8,000 against more than 10,000, and the battle of Jiancheng still had to be fought.

This order was issued, and all the public officials and military men in the city were mobilized. In the dungeon, the prison guards here also received orders, and they all took weapons and went to Simon, some of them were unarmed, and they also took two torture instruments to use as weapons.

At this moment, the outer hall of Mu Qinghan's cell suddenly became empty. The uncle was the first to see the clue, so he whispered to Mu Qinghan. "Don't you think there are all the jailers here?"

Mu Qinghan took a closer look, and indeed, not only was there no trace of anyone passing through the hall, but even the voice of the person on duty in the distance was gone.

"Looks like something big must be happening in the city." After speaking, he smiled meaningfully, and Mu Qinghan was a little hairy when he saw it. But when I asked why, I heard the uncle answer: "If you don't run at this time, when will you stay?" ”

Mu Qinghan said that I wanted to run, but the door lock was shackled and heavy, and it was difficult to leave.

Hearing only the sound of "heh", the uncle slowly took out two thin wires from his arms, and showed a sinister smile on his mouth: "Young man, do you know what it means to be more than a person?" ”

Mu Qinghan also looked at him in surprise, of course he knew that these two wires were the keys in the hands of the locksmith.

So, after half a burnt incense, the two of them successfully escaped from the dungeon. It's just that the shackles around Mu Qinghan's neck can't be untied, and everything else has been untied. But fortunately, this shackle does not affect the movement of the limbs, and the uncle also said when he opened the lock: "This shackle is not tied to hands or feet, only tied around the neck, what's the point?" ”

The two of them walked down the street and found that the market that should have been bustling was now empty. I think it's late at night, and each family goes to bed after the New Year's vigil. Just as they were thinking this, they suddenly saw another group of hunters coming from the east, and they were so frightened that they quickly hid in the corner.

One of them caught fast, as if he had just eaten and drunk a lot, and he didn't run very well, so he stopped there panting. I only heard his companion urging: "Hurry up, the king is in a hurry to recruit the whole city to go to the west gate, and be careful to get the board if you make a mistake!" ”

The tired catcher said: "What's the matter so anxious about this New Year, the bandits are attacking the city." ”

"I just heard from the head of the team that it seems that someone from the north has called."

"I'm here, fighting a war during the New Year, do these princes have a bit of humanity?"

The companion was anxious: "Shut up for me, watch your head, and go!" ”

The group hurried westward again. The two people hiding in the corner heard this truthfully, and they couldn't help but wonder why the prison guards disappeared for a while, and it turned out that there was a war. The uncle didn't think anything, but although Mu Qinghan was born in troubled times, the southern tour had already been peaceful for a long time, and there was still some novelty.

But I heard the uncle say solemnly: "If there is a war, the city gates must be closed, and there are soldiers to handle it, don't think about going out of the city." Alas, do you have a place to stay and hide in the city? ”

When Mu Qinghan heard this, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, and only secretly thought to himself, this time I have to trouble Brother Tang again, Brother Tang went north to do business, and I don't know if he came back, fortunately, Inspector Chen also knew each other, and he was expected to have a friendship with Yunlou in the future, so it was good to ask and avoid the limelight for a while. So he said there was a place to go.

The two of them trotted all the way, looking left and right, and finally arrived at the door of Shangli School again. For Mu Qinghan, he is already familiar with the road at this time. There was a tight knock on the door, and then Chen Huance, who opened the door, saw that it was Mu Qinghan, with a dusty face, dirty clothes, and a shackle on his body. So he quickly held him up and said, "Come in!" When he saw the uncle behind him, he was even more shocked, so after the two of them entered the door, he checked whether there was anyone following him before closing the door.

"Brother Mu, why did you end up like this?"

This sentence made Mu Qinghan seem to have a thousand words in his heart, although he was not too familiar with Chen Huangce, but he was also a person who could speak. When I walked to the front of the hall and saw the two girls Su and Meng, who were still in the old age, I suddenly felt that someone was talking about this bitter place, but I didn't know where to start.

When the people saw how he was so down, they wanted to ask him all the more, but he only said one sentence for a long time, and it was a long story.

The winter night was long, Chen Huance lit the long lamp in the wing, and everyone sat down to listen to Mu Qinghan tell about the past few days, no matter who said or listened, it was uncomfortable. The more Mu Qinghan spoke, the slower he spoke, and the softer his tone became, Su Mingxi was shocked when he heard about Gu Xiaowei, and he also shed tears. But Mu Qinghan is the person who should cry the most at this time, but his tears have been shed a lot a few days ago, but now he can't cry when he meets the deceased.

"Wronged." Even Chen Huance, who is usually serious and self-controlled, couldn't help but sigh. He was used to seeing life and death, but after all, the people who were still alive in front of him a few days ago, hearing this, how many people could really be so unmoved.

Meng Zhichu frowned: "What else is there to say, kill Chun Yu Xianzhong to take revenge." ”

"He will be able to take revenge, and now he can come to you so downcast." This is the uncle on the side who spoke, and he gnawed on the nest head while talking. Although this is a merciless statement, it is also true. Mu Qinghan was also sour when he heard it, and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, Chen Huance remembered that there was an old man here, so he walked over and made a bow respectfully, "But I said thank you to my little brother for getting out of trouble, and Chen thanked me again." ”

Mu Qinghan was moved by this, compared with Chen Huance, Mu Qinghan and Tang Mingyin have a closer relationship, but Chen Huance can treat himself as a sibling because of Tang Mingyin, and at the same time, friends, others saved him, and he also had to thank him with a big gift. The righteousness of the Pingshui meeting is compared to the friendship of playmates since childhood, but it is like this, which has to be sighed.

But the uncle's words were extremely ruined, but he said, "It's okay, just take care of the food." "You can't live without food anywhere. But I heard Chen Huance say: "No problem, but I don't know how Lord Helian came to the southern tour and was captured by Chun Yu Xianzhong?" ”

The uncle's expression suddenly became serious again: "You know me?" ”

Chen Huance nodded: "In the past, I saw Lord Helian present a BMW to the first emperor in the Wenhua Palace. ”

"Oh," Helian raised his voice, indicating a sudden realization. "I remember, you are the secretary Lang Xiaochen of Zhongshu Province back then. I still remember that your goatee was also eye-catching. ”

When Mu Qinghan heard this, why do you know all this, why do all these faces I met know each other these days, but I don't know them? Then he asked, "Brother Chen, do you know each other?" ”

Chen Huance turned around and said: "This is the famous 'Northwest Sixteen Darts' Helian Chunhou, who was once crowned as a Shuofang transfer envoy by the imperial court because the first emperor transported good horses from the north, and I was fortunate to see it when I was an official in Dazheng in my early years. ”

Hearing this name, Meng Zhichu and Mu Qinghan both looked very strange, and the two exchanged eyes, although they did not speak, they had reached a consensus, and this name was really appropriate. However, hearing this name, Su Mingxi was also surprised, she was still immersed in the sadness of Gu Xiaowei's matter before, and Helian Chunhou had always had fluffy hair covering both sides of her face, so she didn't recognize it.

At this time, she hurriedly walked over to take a look, and sure enough, she hurriedly made a thousand blessings. Helian Chunhou looked at the beautiful female doll and saluted herself, and suddenly looked innocent: "Girl, do you also recognize the old man?" ”

Su Mingxi walked in and said, "Senior Helian, you really don't know me?" ”

"Oops!" Helian Chunhou jumped up, pointed to Su Mingxi's face, and said excitedly, "You are the one and that...... That little doctor girl who always follows Xiao Tang! I just said that how can I not affect such a beautiful female doll, I haven't seen it for a few years, and it has become more and more peugeot. ”

Su Mingxi couldn't answer what he said, this is normal, others praise you always have to be modest, but Helian this game, when he shook off his old bottom at Mu and Meng, it was not easy to answer anything, so he could only reply yes yes, okay.

Ke He connected a sentence, which made her regret coming to recognize this old man. Helian said: "You and Xiao Tang are married, do you even have children?" ”

Mu Qinghan's eyes expressed that he seemed to have heard something terrible, and the previous sluggish mood was swept away, and he subconsciously glanced at Meng Zhichu's reaction next to him. And Meng Zhichu's eyes at this moment told him that he shouldn't have seen her reaction.

Su Mingxi hurriedly explained: "No, how can I get married to him?" ”

"Huh? He hasn't said it yet, then I said, I heard him talk before, and he ....... to that surnamed Cao."

"Uh-huh!" Chen Huance coughed, stopping the momentum of the spread of this gossip. I just heard him say, "Lord Helian, there is still business, gossip and talk about it slowly?" ”

Helian was annoyed and said, "What's the matter, what's the matter?" ”

Chen Huance said cautiously: "For example, what you just said, is there a war now?" ”

Yes, when Shangli Academy was reminiscing about the grief and gossip, the brave man who created the tragedy was commanding a makeshift patchwork team at the head of Xiyue City to fight against Liu Chunqing's army of more than 10,000.
