Han King Changshi Mansion Order: From now on, all guards and soldiers are forbidden to cause trouble in the city, and they will start exercising at the school every day.

Early in the morning, Zhu Gaoxu went to the school field in the south of the palace to inspect the guards and horses. The civil and military affairs of the royal palace were arranged according to the etiquette system.

As the sun rises, the bells and drums on the school field sound in unison. There are hundreds of people singing and dancing in front, and the lyrics are probably like poems, "Draw your sword and raise the soil, and ride the horse to set the Huan District...... The general's star is around, and the warrior's moon is curved......"

After a while, everyone finished dancing, and the soldiers of the army listened to the drums and ordered the banners, and slowly marched towards the side of the city wall.

Each team of the phalanx has a sergeant with a cowhide drum around his neck, and the other holds a suona and plays military music. In the midst of the noisy propaganda, mixed with strange commands such as "march in unison" that had not been available before, the armies marched in line according to the drum orders.

While marching, the cavalry lined up in a huge formation, and after the sound of the trumpet, thousands of people stood in place. Then the exercise began, and everyone held spears and danced with the head of the instructor, just like doing exercises, and the school field was very lively for a while.

Zhu Gaoxu inspected the army and nodded to the surrounding civil and military forces to express his satisfaction.

Although the scene is a bit nondescript, it doesn't matter. Because the drills of the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty are different, and even the establishment is different, it is mainly related to the art of war and habits handed down by each general. Zhu Gaoxu taught the soldiers in Yuezhou, and everyone naturally thought that this was the habit of the Han King's guards.

Zhu Gaoxu made his rounds for a short time and soon left the school grounds. At this time, he had no interest in teaching the soldiers, he just wanted to gather them all together and prepare them to be mobilized at any time.

As soon as he walked into the Duanli Gate, he saw Wang Gui waiting in the gatehouse. In front of the carrying hall in the distance, more than 300 guards and soldiers guarding the palace were running with weights, and they had to go to the Wenlou to learn to read and write after running.

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and told everyone to disperse. At this time, Wang Gui stepped forward and whispered: "Yao Fang is in the restaurant in the north of the city, saying that there is something important. The slave and maid asked him, but he only wanted to report to the prince in person. ”

Didn't Yao Fang go to Dali? At this time, Zhu Gaoxu heard that Yao Fang had suddenly returned to Kunming, and guessed in his heart: I'm afraid something has happened!

He looked around him, and it was the morning, and he saw that there were people on duty everywhere inside and outside the palace. Zhu Gaoxu immediately said: "Prepare the car." Tell Chen Dazhui and Zhao Ping to take some people out with me. ”

Wang Gui bowed and said, "Obey!" ”

After getting ready, Zhu Gaoxu changed his clothes and went out in a carriage from the Tiren Gate in the east.

He came to the restaurant, went straight into the courtyard behind, and saw Yao Fang in a living room. Yao Fang stepped forward and saluted with his fists and glanced at the eunuch Wang Gui.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu said: "Yao Baihu has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Yao Fang hugged his fists and said: "Hu Keguan met a woman surnamed Duan in Dali and learned that Emperor Jianwen was hiding in Lanfeng Temple in Diancang Mountain. But Lanfeng Temple was sheltered by the Dali hermit Duan Baoji, and it is said that Xu Tao, the chief military officer of Dali, was also Duan Baoji's person. Hu Keguan told the last general to return to Kunming City immediately, and asked the King of Han to send reinforcements to search for Emperor Jianwen! ”

A woman with the surname Duan? Zhu Gaoxu immediately remembered Duan Yang's family. He asked Yao Fang again, and asked Yao Fang to roughly describe the woman's appearance, and he was even more convinced that the woman was Duan Yang!

Yao Fang also seemed to want to take advantage of this incident to make meritorious contributions, and then persuaded him: "The last general doesn't seem to be trying to deceive us when she sees that woman, otherwise she won't be able to escape if she falls into the hands of our brothers, this matter is worth a try!" ”

"Rest easy." Zhu Gaoxu said, "The whereabouts of Hu Hu and the others, as long as they have not been discovered by Duan Baoji, there is no need to panic about this matter for a while. If the Han Wangfu makes a move, then it should be fought for, and the soldiers are fast! ”

Yao Fang exhaled and said, "The prince is reasonable. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "I'll go back to the palace first, and then I'll do it after I make arrangements." ”

Yao Fang clenched his fists and said: "The letter has been brought, the last general will return to Dali first, and wait for the prince's army to come!" He looked tired, but said that he would return immediately, and he was really in good spirits.

Zhu Gaoxu said indifferently: "There is no army, only a team of elite horsemen, and it is enough." ”

……

There is a street outside the main gate of the Xiping Hou Mansion; If you want to go from Xiping Houfu to Yunnan Sansi Yamen, you generally have to take this street.

There are a number of shops on both sides of the street, but one of them has been closed for a few days.

Inside the wood-paneled gate, the light is dim during the day. Sunlight peeked through the crack in the door into the dark room, like tangible white lines, and fine dust danced briskly in it like small insects.

It had just rained last night, and it was dawn. The house is a little leaky, and there is a wooden basin in the house, which should have been put by the owner, and the sound of water droplets is sounding from time to time in the wooden basin.

Inside the door was a woman sitting on the floor with her back to the plank. She carried a long wooden scabbard in her arms and a crossbow in her hand.

Her skin was pale, and although white, it lacked luster. The face is relatively small, the cheeks are full above, the chin is pointed, and the eyes appear larger, but the eyes are blank.

In her left hand, she held a hardened loaf of bread, and a bite she would have chewed on for a long time. Then she glanced at the crack in the door next to her. A ray of sunlight shone on her eyelashes, and the bright sunlight made her black eyelashes seem to turn pale, and she squinted her eyes and immediately moved away from the crack in the door. Then she picked up a water bag and threw her head up and took a sip of cold water.

The woman is Duan Xue hate.

…… Duan Xue's eyes left that ray of sunshine, and he suddenly felt a lot better. There were too many days of day and night, and now she was more accustomed to a darker environment, and the clear days were too harsh.

She has been waiting here for three days and three nights, but she believes that Mu Sheng will definitely pass by this street, and Mu Sheng will always go to the Sansi Yamen sometimes. She just waited for Mu Sheng to go out this time, and then she stabbed the enemy!

Occasionally, Duan Xue will think about a question, and according to the layout of his mother Duan Yang, he exposed Mu Sheng's harboring of Emperor Jianwen, and the whole Mu family is finished! What is the use of stabbing and killing Mu Sheng during this period?

Maybe it doesn't work, but it might be useful...... Duan Xue hated very well the deep hatred in her mother's heart, and she had to kill the big enemy with the Duan family's own hands before she could be willing; Mu Ying and her eldest son Mu Chun are both dead, and the biggest enemy will naturally be counted on Mu Sheng's head.

Anyway, Duan Xue hated and finally complied with her mother's arrangement.

This is my fate! The name is Snow Hatred, and he was born in the world to take revenge. If you don't take revenge, then what is the purpose of living for so many years?

…… Duan Xue hated to the side and glanced at the scene outside the crack in the door again. As in the street, as always, she immediately sat back down.

The dazzling sunlight flickered, and she felt a little dizzy. In a trance, the voices that had been read countless times by my mother echoed again as if they were imprisoned in my mind.

The white mantra, like a terrible soul in the middle of the night, and like the sound of the wind in her ears that fell into the endless abyss, will always haunt her heart.

Duan Xue couldn't help but touch the old scar on his arm, every trace seemed to hear the sound of a whip "snapping", and he could still feel the pain of the whip. What did my mother say was this pain? Your biological father was burned on his body with a soldering iron by the people of the Mu family, and every blow was ten thousand times more painful than this!

Sometimes Duan Xue hated to see the Buddha statue, and couldn't help but think that those perfect bodhisattvas had fallen into the boundless hell for some reason...... This is probably the impression of the late father.

And what kind of person her mother is, Duan Xue can't say. If it weren't for some moment, my mother would never smile at her; Duan Xue hated probably the same, and couldn't remember when she had laughed.

Duan Xue hated even that her mother hated her daughter, she hated everyone. However, the only person close to Duan Xue hated was her mother Duan Yang; Without Duan Yang's family, Duan Xue would not have grown so big.

…… In the past 20 years, she has learned a lot of things, most of which are stabbing and killing, poisoning, opening doors, and climbing over walls. If she fights with the martial artists in the sun, she is not necessarily better than others; What she wants is to take advantage of the unpreparedness and suddenly sneak attack!

The incident in the pear orchard last time resurfaced in front of me, and the attack that I thought was inevitable was also missed. That incident left a shadow on her, and Duan Xue hated that her heart was even more bottomless at this time, feeling that it was not easy to assassinate these martial artists who led troops to fight.

So for three days, Duan Xue Hate has been very suspicious, this time to assassinate Mu Sheng in broad daylight, can he really succeed?

However, if you miss this time, as my mother said, once Dali's incident happens, I'm afraid I will never have the opportunity to kill the enemy with my own hands in the future!

Duan Xue hated every period of time, and then glanced sideways through the crack in the door, and when he looked out from here, he could clearly see the situation on the street outside. At this moment, a team of people appeared outside the main gate of Mu Mansion and was slowly coming over here!

Duan Xuehan's body immediately tensed a little, and her eyes stayed in the crack of the door, carefully observing the situation on the street. She wanted to see Mu Sheng riding on a horse, not in a car!

After a while, she finally saw clearly, a team of guards was surrounded by a carriage, and I am afraid that the person sitting in it was Mu Sheng......

Duan Xue hated a chill in her heart, and suddenly a sense of fear surged into her heart. She thought that she was already dead and would not be afraid of anything, but she didn't expect that there was still a great fear at this time.

Is she afraid of failure or death at this moment? She can't say it, fear is probably difficult to restrain it, and people are born with it.

Duan Xue Hate sat back down, picked up the strong crossbow in his hand, and breathed slowly and long. She closed her eyes slightly, imagining the position of the group; Guessing how the horses pulling the cart were hit by the crossbows, the reactions of those people and the positions of their runs.

There was still a hint of panic in her heart.

Duan Xue hated silently said to herself in her heart: If people live, if there is only pain, hatred and fear, then death may be a relief. At least the hardships and tiredness that she didn't want to face could no longer be felt. It was as if the huge stone on her body had suddenly been removed, and a sense of relief beckoned to her.

She opened her eyes suddenly, there was only a cold and fierce light in her eyes, and she drew a crossbow arrow and pulled the crossbow string hard.
