Yanjing City under the night sky is still majestic and solid, standing quietly on the plain. Wind lanterns hung at intervals on the city wall illuminated the city wall like a giant dragon lying around the city, guarding the largest city in the north. In the courtyards of the houses in the city, the dim lights are revealed, and outside the gates, on the side of the street, there are red lanterns hanging all over the street, illuminating the street with joy. Although the people of the city have now returned to their homes like tired birds, the lanterns on the streets and the colorful flags hanging all over the streets can still make people feel the excitement and celebration of the city during the day.

There was snow cover, and the moat was not visible. Yu Liyan and Gao Yun also overlooked Yanjing City with interest. The silver bottle on the side for Gao Yun warmly introduced Yanjing City, the northernmost is the three streets and six cities, the highest tower is the relics of Tianwang Temple, the southwesternmost corner is the Qingliang Hall on the city wall......

Zhou Nan didn't want to be like Zhuozhou anymore, it was already late at night, and when Xiao Laoliu's subordinate generals arrived, he was far away; Second, Yu Liyan and the others were already tired, so instead of wasting time, it was better to fly directly over the city wall and land in the palace. There are no guards in the palace except for some maids, and the palace is large, as long as you land in the northeast corner of the palace, you are not afraid of being attacked by the soldiers on the city wall.

Zhou Nan added charcoal to the furnace in a row, blowing the fire, and when there was still half a mile away from the city wall, the hot air balloon carrying the four people gradually rose, and the city wall below became smaller, and the roof of the Qingliang Hall seemed to be already under the divine chariot.

The silver bottle pointed to the Qingliang Hall and said to Gao Yun, "Look, this is where the horse rescued the princess, and the horse jumped off the city wall from here......"

Gao Yun took a closer look below and asked in disbelief, "How did you jump down so high?" ”

Yu Liyan said with a smile, "Don't worry, Zhou Lang is not a fool, so he refuses to jump directly." It's just that I was startled when I watched it below, but he put his robe on the rope and dragged it down with both hands. ”

Gao Yun looked at the seven or eight zhang high city wall, although the matter had already passed, he still had palpitations and said, "Da Lang, don't be so dangerous in the future." ”

Zhou Nan was staring closely below at this time, although he wanted to fly over secretly, but the sky was full of stars, and the ground was reflected with snow, and the guards on the city wall had already discovered Zhou Nan and them, and with the whistle, more soldiers immediately appeared on the city wall, holding bows and arrows, like Zhou Nan driving a magic car to shoot arrows, as if to prevent Zhou Nan from flying over the city wall.

Fortunately, Zhou Nan had already raised the divine car, otherwise the arrow shot below just now would have hit the hot air balloon.

Amid the shouts of the soldiers on the city walls, the chariot had already flown over the city walls and continued to fly north. The palace below is also full of lanterns, illuminating the palace as bright as day, which is convenient for Zhou Nan to land in a hot air balloon.

Zhou Nan stared nervously below, and observed the distance between the divine car and the hot air balloon from time to time. He had to land within the walls of the palace outside the range of the bows and arrows of the city guards, which required him to time his landing. If you land early, you will be shot with a bow and arrow; If you land late, you will hit the palace wall because of the reduction in height.

Zhou Nan looked behind him again, decisively pulled the hemp rope in the airbag, and stepped on the fan to offset the wind, so that the god car almost stayed in one position and slowly descended down.

The heat in the airbag quickly escaped from the top, and the furnace Zhou Nan had already turned off. The divine car floated past the waterfront hall in the center of the palace and flew in the direction of the Yuanhe Palace. The guards on the city wall shouted, and some of them flew down, as if they had found that the ball was about to fall into the palace, and rushed from the city wall to enter the palace.

Zhou Nan knew that the soldiers guarding the city would not be able to enter the palace for a while, and besides, there were other special guards arranged by Xiao Laoliu to guard the palace, even if there was something, he would not let the soldiers on the city wall break in.

Zhou Nan nervously controlled the hemp rope, opened the mechanism again and again, and closed it quickly, while paying attention to the landing speed of the divine car. It wasn't until the divine chariot landed extremely slowly that he let go of the hemp rope and concentrated on pedaling the fan car, allowing the divine chariot to land in front of the Jianing Hall he had chosen.

Zhou Nan had already reminded Gao Yun and the others, and asked them to step on the thick mattresses and blankets in the hanging baskets, and even the leather robes they wore on their bodies, to slow down the impact when they landed. When he was still a foot high from the ground, Zhou Nan dragged the rope connecting the hanging basket and slid down, and as soon as his feet landed, Zhou Nan immediately pulled the rope hard, pulled the god car, slowly pulled the god car down, and landed firmly on the ground.

The huge airbag is now deflated and crumbling. Zhou Nan hurriedly dismantled the hanging basket and asked Yu Liyan and the others to come out of the hanging basket and walk farther. Zhou Nan pulled the rope connecting the hanging basket on the airbag by himself, and pulled the shriveled airbag to the ground, so that the airbag lay flat on the ground, allowing the hot air in the airbag to dissipate, and finally spread it on the ground.

At this time, under the summoning of the silver bottle, the palace maids ran over from the palace one after another, took Yu Liyan and others into the palace, and looked curiously at the air sacs that were dissipating the heat from time to time when they left.

Zhou Nan untied the connecting rope between the airbag and the hanging basket and poured out the charcoal fire in the furnace. It was only then that the shouts of soldiers and the light of lanterns could be heard from the south.

The leader of the team was a school officer of the Black Iron Army, who was arranged by Xiao Lao Liu to guard the palace, and just now I heard from the soldiers guarding the city that someone flew in with a round ball and landed in the palace, so this school officer led someone to break in and take a look.

Even at night, the school officer recognized that the person who was collecting the airbag was the horse, and hurriedly stepped forward to meet Zhou Nan, and explained that it was the guards of the city wall who warned him that he had brought people in.

Zhou Nan naturally didn't blame him for breaking into the palace at night, and said a few words of relief, saying that he flew in with the princess in a magic car, so there was no need to panic. While he was talking, another group of people hurried in from outside the palace.

When Zhou Nan looked carefully, he saw that it was Xiao Lao Liu who took the lead, and he hurriedly greeted Xiao Lao Liu. When Xiao Lao Liu saw that it was Zhou Nan, he laughed and said, "The children reported that a monster flew into the palace, I wondered if it was a magic car you made, so I rushed to take a look, and sure enough, it was you!" ”

Now that they knew that it was a false alarm, those guards all retreated, and even the guards brought by Xiao Lao Liu himself were driven out by Xiao Lao Liu. Since Zhou Nan has returned with the princess, of course these guards are not suitable to stay in the palace.

Zhou Nan called a few palace maids to move the folded airbags and hanging baskets into the room. Xiao Lao Liu looked at the air bag that was carried away by the palace maid, and asked puzzledly, "This is the magic car that burned the Xi Bing grain depot?" When Zhou Nan was in Xianghe City, he sent a letter to Yanjing City to tell him about the Shenche, and later after recovering Zunhua and pacifying the Xi clan, Yang Keshi sent more news to Yanjing, and Xiao Lao Liu naturally knew about the Shenche.

Zhou Nan nodded and said, "Exactly." This time, the heavy snow closed the road, and it was difficult to take a horse and a car, so this magic car was used to fly the princess all the way from Sanssouci to the capital. ”

Under the guidance of the palace maid, the two came to a hall and sat down, Xiao Lao Liu was very interested in the magic car, and kept asking. Zhou Nan said with a smile, "I have ordered the craftsman to rush to make it, and when it is made, I will send one to my uncle." ”

Seeing that Zhou Nan was thinking about himself everywhere, Xiao Lao Liu smiled and said, "If you can think of my old bones, I won't blame you for leaving me alone for the New Year." ”

Zhou Nan told Xiao Lao Liu about the heavy snow in Yizhou and the knee-high snow on the road, and asked, "How is the situation in Yanjing City?" ”

Xiao Lao Liu asked and said, "The snow here is not big, and it will not delay the merchants in the city to sell grain to Jizhou." It's just that something happened in Yanjing City. ”
