There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy. -------Tang Dynasty. Du Fu "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind"

It is said that Chen Long successively saved Liu Xian and Huang Gai at the head of the city, and turned around to save Liu Xian. Just as he was about to forcibly climb the wall to look for it, he suddenly saw a yellow turban general on the main street near the city gate, wearing heavy armor and white horse steel guns, commanding the troops under the city to capture the city gate. The sound of equipment slamming the door outside the city gate became more and more urgent, and the city gate hole was full of shadows, crowded with soldiers on both sides, and it was impossible to see who was still resisting. Chen Long thought to himself, is Liu Xian still guarding the city gate?

In the narrow city gate hole, there is almost no space to stay, the Yellow Turban soldiers are not afraid of death, stepping on the corpses of the Yellow Turbans in front of them to attack in waves, vowing to defeat the defenders, seize the city gate, and let the siege troops on the periphery enter. Chen Long couldn't rush in several times, making him angry, and suddenly his heart moved, so he grabbed a spear by his side, stomped on the city wall with his right foot, the spear in front and behind, turned into a long arrow, drilled through the air current, and shot at the white horse general who commanded like a rocket.

The white horse general is none other than Sun Xia, the deputy marshal of the Yellow Turban Army. This siege of the city, Xing Daorong had to teach the saint face-to-face the plan of attacking the northern city and attacking Xiangshui secretly, and it was really successful in one fell swoop. Sun Xia led 30,000 horses from his lineage, all the way south from Xiangshui, taking advantage of the lax combat readiness of the ferry in the middle of the night, crushing the few Lingling warships, successfully landing from the east bank of Xiangshui, and entering the city from the west city. The Lingling soldiers were outnumbered, and it was only a matter of time before they fell, Sun Xiazhi was complacent, and he was not very defensive with many soldiers, so he sent his own soldiers to the city gate to kill the enemy.

Suddenly, the alarm sounded in his head, and he saw that one of the people jumped up with a gun, and rushed towards him, as fast as a goshawk fighting a rabbit, Sun Xia was caught off guard, and he didn't have time to think at all, but fortunately he had rich combat experience, and he was agile, and he subconsciously raised the steel gun and knocked it, only to hear a loud bang, Sun Xia saw sparks splashing in front of him, only to feel that the tiger's mouth was hot, and he could no longer hold the steel gun, and flew out with a whoosh, and it was only after a long time that he fell to the ground.

Chen Long was blocked by Sun Xia's shot, and although he shot Sun Xia's weapon away, his body also fell to the ground. When he looked up, Sun Xia had already pulled out his matching sword on the white horse, and looked at him with fierce eyes, and the yellow scarf next to him saw that the boss was attacked, and he rushed over like a tide. Chen Long secretly screamed that it was not good, stomped his foot and pulled it out again, the Han family's marksmanship was like flowing water, Sun Xia was busy waving his sword to meet each other, the two fought a few rounds in an instant, Sun Xia only fell half covered and half blocked, and it was very hard to resist, Chen Long was anxious, so he simply carried light skills, and flew around his white horse, Sun Xia did not turn well on the horse, and only had a short sword to defend himself, only to feel that his eyes were dazzling, and he was secretly screaming that it was not good, and his temples had already been hit by a heavy shot, and when he landed, his mind was like turning over the river and the sea, fainted, and fell off the horse with a pop.

Chen Long quickly pulled out the Qinglong dagger and pressed it against Sun Xia's throat, at this time the Yellow Turban infantry had already closed, and when they saw that the commander was captured, they stopped one after another, looked at each other, and shouted: "Don't hurt General Sun!" "Let go of Vice Marshal Sun!". Chen Long realized that he had caught the big fish of Sun Xia, and while they were stunned, he grabbed Sun Xia and jumped on the white horse, put Sun Xia in front of the saddle, and shouted condescendingly: "Wait a minute, your lord Sun Xia is now in my hands, you immediately retreat, otherwise your lieutenant's life will die in your hands!" Some of the lieutenant generals in the Yellow Turban Army slowly retreated when they heard this, and the battle in the city gate cave also stopped temporarily.

Chen Long shouted loudly: "None of you are allowed to move, General Liu Xian, are you in the city gate cave?" I'm Long Chen, I have their deputy marshal in my hand, you come out quickly! Chen Long escorted Sun Xia, rode a white horse and slowly approached the city gate, driving away the yellow scarf blocking the road, and the person really trembled and walked out of a person, with one eye and thin eyebrows, and a bloody robe, it was Liu Xian. Liu Xian had already lost his strength in battle, stumbling three times at a time, and when he saw Chen Long's white horse, he stumbled over, and the yellow scarves around him did not dare to move, but gave way to a passage.

Chen Long dragged Liu Xian to the horse, at this time the city gate made a loud bang, the door latch was finally broken, and cheers sounded outside the city, Chen Long knew that if he didn't leave, he would never be able to go, so he threw the unconscious Sun Xia into the city gate cave and threw it vigorously, and the white horse turned around without hesitation and quickly rushed along the main street. The yellow turban infantry surged up in black, and the white horse gradually couldn't accelerate, Chen Long simply flew up, stepped heavily on the horse's back, jumped to the roof next to him, and quickly disappeared into the boundless night.

Walking through one street after another, Long Chen saw that the Yellow Turban Army had occupied most of the important strongholds in the city, and knew that Lingling City had fallen, and he didn't know what the result would be if he was too guarded by Liu Du. After a fierce battle, Chen Long was already tired and vomited blood, and finally came to the front of the mansion with Liu Xian on his back, and suddenly the tall man in black flashed in the shadow of the mansion gate, it was Ma Yuanyi.

Chen Long was shocked, this man in black has strong martial arts, and his light skills are not weaker than himself, and he is carrying Liu Xian on his back, how can he fight this fight. Putting down Liu Xian, I saw that Liu Xian had fainted to death, obviously because of excessive blood loss. Chen Long was so anxious that he pounced directly and was about to make a move, but Ma Yuanyi shook his head slightly, and lightly walked out of the battle circle to avoid the offensive and get out of the way. Seeing that he didn't mean to do anything, Chen Long wondered if Zhang Ning had instructed him not to stop him, so he picked up Liu Xian and walked to the mansion. Passing in front of the man in black, suddenly the man in black coughed lightly and said: "My young lady asked me to stop the Yellow Turban army from harassing the Yellow Mansion here, Miss has a heart for you, Chen Long, you must not let it down." Chen Long was slightly stunned, but he didn't have time to speak, so he rushed straight to the house.

The servants in the house hurriedly took Liu Xian and moved him to Liu Xian's healing ear room, Chen Long followed up the ear room, only to see that Huang Gai's family was even Peach Blossom and Zhang Ning, and Zhang Ning was ignoring the dirty and giving Liu Xian a package to stop bleeding. Chen Long sat on the rattan chair with his buttocks, feeling that his whole body was about to fall apart, Peach Blossom hurriedly came over to massage him gently, to see if he was injured, and said in his mouth: "Thanks to the presence of Mei Niang, we can't even stop bleeding and bandage." Zhang Ning turned his head to look at Long Chen and winked at him. Chen Long hurriedly said gratefully: "Mei Niang is really the best Lang Zhong in the world. Zhang Ning smiled when he heard this, and then went to Liu Xian.

Chen Long saw that Zhang Ning's busy head was sweating, knowing that he was helping Liu Xian and others to heal his injuries because of his own face, and remembered Ma Yuanyi's words, his heart was hot for a while, and his eyes were different when he looked at Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning glanced back at him from time to time, and the two of them looked at each other in front of everyone, Chen Long hurriedly looked at Huang Gai and them, fortunately, they were all helping the wounded, no one paid attention to the little ambiguity between them, and felt a little sorry for the peach blossoms, so they had to simply close their eyes and rest, as the so-called invisible beauty is clean.

When Zhang Ning was busy, Liu Xian and Liu Xian both fell asleep, and while everyone sat down to rest, Chen Long and everyone reported the situation, and said to Huang An that he would never be able to leave the city now, and he could only wait for the results of the war before making plans. Everyone sent domestic servants to wait for the wounded, and each went back to the room to rest, and Peach Blossom drove Chen Long, who followed him to the bedroom, out again, saying that he was bathing Zhang Ning Zhang Luo in the bedroom, and Chen Long, who had returned to the ear room, heard the sound of water next door, and thought about it, but peeking at the woman's bath, Chen Long, the big hero, neither disdained nor dared, so he felt a wave of tiredness in his red face and red ears, and finally fell asleep.

It wasn't until dawn that Chen Long finally woke up from his deep sleep, and the miraculous effect of the group breath reappeared, even if he was so physically exhausted yesterday, he woke up in the morning and was alive and well. Chen Long remembered that he had dreamed of Zhang Ning again just now, and secretly wondered why he dreamed of this girl every time he woke up, could it be that he had fallen in love with her? I was troubled.

Everyone got together for breakfast, Peach Blossom and Zhang Ning sat together, eating cutely, because of the little caution in his heart, Chen Long didn't dare to look at Zhang Ning, his eyes were dodgy. Liu Xian and Liu Xian had their own people to bring breakfast. After Chen Long and the others finished eating, they went to Liu Xian's room to check their injuries, both of them had woken up, but they couldn't move, eating, drinking, and Lazar were all on the bed, but fortunately, there were people who served wholeheartedly. Liu Xian was worried, thinking that his father didn't know what was going on, and suddenly there was a gong on the street outside, followed by a broken gong and shouted loudly: "People, we are the Yellow Turban Army under Zhang Daqu Shuai, we have taken over the defense of Lingling, Zhang Daqu Shuai has an order, and there is no offense against the people, today the Yellow Turban Army enters the city, and the people can go to the streets to welcome!" The voice shouted over and over again, and the sound of the gong faded away.

Huang An hurriedly called a few servants and went out to inquire about the situation, Chen Long was worried about Liu Yong and Zhou Budo's situation, so he took Huang Gai with him and asked everyone to wait patiently at home. When I went out, I saw that many of the people came out to see the situation and walked towards the north gate one after another. Walking to the main street West Market, the Yellow Turban Army had already posted a notice for the people, and Chen Longjian saw that there were some words written on it that the Yellow Turban promised the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and the former Taishou Liu Du had been defeated and surrendered.

Knowing that Liu Du was not dead, Chen Long felt a little relieved, thinking that he could discuss with Zhang Ning when he went back, so that these two people would not become enemies. At this time, only the sound of drums came from the north gate along the main street, mixed with the cheers and applause of some people, it should be that the Yellow Turban Army has entered the city to appear.

The two of them stood on the side of the street and waited, and after a while, they saw the horse team that opened the way, one by one with bright saddles, the head of the general was wrapped in a bright yellow scarf, he was in his thirties, with a long face and a short beard, thick eyebrows, high cheekbones, a pair of big eyes and bright eyes, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a short sword hanging from his waist, sitting on horseback and constantly signaling to the crowd. Chen Long didn't know it, but when he saw it behind him, he knew that it was Sun Xia who was knocked unconscious by himself last night, Chen Long hurriedly lowered his head, and Huang Gai asked in a low voice at this time: "This general should be Zhang Mancheng, right?" ”

The Yellow Turban team walked through the main street in a steady stream, Chen Long knew that this was just some troops that were picked out for display, the military appearance was neat, and the army must still be stationed outside the city, but he didn't know if the grain and grass in the city had been robbed by the Yellow Turbans.

The two looked at it for a while, and when they saw that they couldn't find out more information, they turned around and went back to Huangfu. After going back, seeing that Liu Xian and Liu Xian had been able to get out of bed and limp and walk, and informed them of Liu Du's situation, both of them were silent, it was under the nest, how could there be no eggs, although the two fought bloodily for Lingling and the Yellow Turban, but since Liu Du had surrendered, he could not escape the charge, and the mediocre court of the Han Dynasty would inevitably put them into a separate book and be wanted nationwide.

Chen Long sighed in his heart, after leaving, Huang Gai went to see his father, Chen Long went straight to Peach Blossom's bedroom, and when he entered the door, he saw Zhang Ning mixing medicine for Peach Blossom, Peach Blossom smiled and came up to greet him, Chen Long told Peach Blossom about the yellow scarf, Peach Blossom is innocent and simple, who cares who has it in the world, Chen Long paid attention to Zhang Ning's face, Zhang Ning sat upright and adjusted the medicine seriously, his face was not sad or happy. After the potion was adjusted, Zhang Ning fed Peach Blossom to take it, let Peach Blossom lie down and rest for a while, and said to Chen Long: "Brother Chen, Peach Blossom's body still has residual poison, let her rest for a while after drinking the medicine, don't disturb her first." As he spoke, he walked out of the bedroom first.

Chen Long knew that Zhang Ning had something to say to him alone, so he said hello to Peach Blossom and asked her to rest first, and he also stepped out of the house, only to see Zhang Ning far away to the peony bush on the edge of the courtyard wall, bathed in the warm late spring sunshine all over his body, and put a dazzling gold rim on her bewitching figure. Seeing Chen Long coming to his side, the two of them didn't know how to start for a while, and they both looked at the purple and red peony flowers in silence.

Zhang Ning said slowly: "Brother Chen, we have sent Liu Du to a farm in the suburbs, you can ask Liu Xian to go there to see him." He told him an address. Chen Long nodded silently and wrote it down, and asked, "How do you know that these details were told to you by your bodyguard?" Zhang Ning did not deny it, and said: "I have the most detailed report here, just ask what you want to ask." Chen Long thought for a while and asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Liu Yong and Zhou Budo?" Zhang Ning nodded and said, "In the fierce battle at the south gate last night, Liu Yong escaped from the city with some people. Zhou Budo I don't know, it's your friend? I'll go back and ask them to find it for you. Chen Long knew that Zhou Bu was a big ghost, but he was not worried, nodded and asked, "Then where is Liu Min?" Zhang Ning turned his head and looked at Long Chen strangely: "Do you care about Liu Min?" Instantly understood something, nodded and slapped Long Chen, and said with a smile: "Okay, it turns out that Liu Min claimed to have been kidnapped, but in fact, he had already surrendered to you, which allowed me to catch it." ”

Chen Long didn't expect Zhang Ning to be so smart, and hurriedly said half-jokingly: "The saint is really sage." Zhang Ning smiled and punched him again, saying, "you!" ”

Zhang Ning was smiling happily, and suddenly his pretty face froze, revealing a faint sad look. When Long Chen saw that there were tears in her beautiful eyes, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and he panicked. At a loss, Zhang Ning's voice came slowly: "The war here in Lingling is over, and I have prepared enough medicine for Peach Blossom for her, and I will leave tomorrow." ”

Only then did Long Chen understand what Peach Blossom was sad about, but he didn't expect that the time of the reunion was so short, and he felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to express it. Zhang Ning saw that Chen Long's face changed, and suddenly smiled again: "Brother Chen, before I leave, I have a gift for you, on the condition that you will send me out of the city tomorrow." ”

Seeing Zhang Ning's sudden joy and sorrow, Chen Long knew that she was not feeling well, so he hurriedly agreed, and said with a smile: "Mei Niang's gift must be the best." Zhang Ning grinned, took out a small official seal from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Long Chen's hand.

Chen Long saw that the official seal was exquisitely made, and turned it over to see that it was engraved with the four seal characters of Lingling Taishou, and set off a huge wave in his heart, and asked: "Mei Niang, this is the official seal of Lingling Taishou, do you think... Zhang Ning interrupted Long Chen, looked at Long Chen deeply with beautiful eyes, and said with a straight face: "Brother Chen, I just want to give Lingling City to you." After a pause, he continued: "Brother Chen, you have the talent to go through the heavens and the earth, but you care for the people, your political ideals are like the warm sun in spring, but you lack a piece of paradise for your ideals to take root and sprout." I have given you this city as a gift precisely because I want you to realize your ideal of political consultation and for the benefit of the people. ”

Chen Long was blown up by Zhang Ning's words, his chest was like a river and a sea, and his blood was surging, and suddenly Du Fu's famous sentence in later generations came to his heart, and he blurted out: "There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the cold people in the world are happy, and the wind and rain are not moving, and they are as safe as a mountain!" When Zhang Ning heard this, his beautiful eyes rippled, and his eyes changed when he saw Chen Long, and he said arrogantly: "That's good!" Great, the wind and rain do not move like a mountain, which is the greatest happiness of ordinary people! Chen Long secretly screamed ashamed in his heart, and actually soaked his sister with Du Fu's poems, but this gift was too heavy, and he wanted to excuse himself, Zhang Ning had already said with a smile: "Big brother can't be excused, the happiness of the people in this city is all in your hands." Today, I want to make a big bet with my eldest brother, can my eldest brother dare to fight me? ”

Chen Long was swayed by Zhang Ning's emotions, and when he saw that Zhang Ning began to laugh at Yan Yan, there was no pimple in his heart, and he said with a smile: "As long as it is a big move released by the saint, I will follow it." Zhang Ning said: "Giving Lingling City to the eldest brother today, it is not only my good impression of the eldest brother, it can be said that I want to give the eldest brother a test field." Tomorrow's handover will be the beginning of the experiment. This experiment is an experiment on how to govern the country, and if the Yellow Turban Army wins the world in the future, I will learn from you the experience of how to work for the welfare of the people. Long Chen nodded and asked, "Then what kind of big bet do you want to make with me?" ”

Zhang Ning said with a smile: "I want to bet on the world with my eldest brother today, do you say it's a big deal?" Today, the eldest brother already has a city, come to see if the eldest brother won the world first, or my father won the world first? ”
