Luo Zixing.

Wang Laohu and the others quickly rushed to Luo Zixing Town.

Zhang Zheng, Jia Wang and others immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"How's it going here?" Wang Laohu asked.

"Childe, Luo Zixing has been taken down by us and more than 600 people have been captured by King Ning." Zhang Zhengdao.

Wang Laohu nodded, King Ning retreated all the way, from Tiehe, Luo Zixing, it is all good news, the most important thing now is to have news of King Ning, "What about King Ning?" ”

"We're looking around, we're looking for his whereabouts." Zhang Zhengdao.

Could it be that King Ning ran away, or was he hiding among the soldiers?

"We didn't find King Ning, but we caught another person." Zhang Zheng said, let someone bring someone from the bottom, Wang Laohu looked at it, but it was an old friend, Hou Ping.

The two agents escorted Hou Ping to Wang Laohu, Hou Ping seemed to be very reluctant, and shook the hand of the person in his hand vigorously, but he did not break free.

"There is a meeting in the mountains and rivers, Hou Ping, come to Luo Zixing, what do you think now?" Wang Laohu asked.

Hou Ping snorted, "King Ning has fallen for your ghost scheme, if you come from Mingli, you are not his opponent at all." ”

"You don't know remorse until you die, King Ning, where are you now? He also knew that the general situation was gone, so he left here, the soldiers here, and fled for his life. Wang Laohu said.

"The prince will definitely make a comeback, Wang Laohu, you wait."

"Only you will believe that King Ning will make a comeback, how can he come back? His men have been wiped out by me, and what power does he have at his disposal? ”

"When the prince rushes back to Nanchang, please come to reinforcements and see how you run."

"It turns out that you are still counting on the soldiers and horses in Nanchang, do you know the current situation in Nanchang City?"

"The prince has asked people to return to Nanchang City, and now the city is impregnable."

"So up to now, you still have illusions, didn't King Ning tell you? It is my people who return to Nanchang to help, and I am afraid that Nanchang City has been peacefully liberated now. ”

"Peaceful liberation?" Hou Ping didn't understand this.

"Nanchang, you can't count on it, now King Ning is flying separately when a catastrophe is coming, and they are all thinking about how to protect themselves." Wang Laohu said, "My people are rushing to Songhukou now, and when the Songhukou problem is solved, this matter will be completed." ”

Hou Ping didn't expect that Wang Laohu not only took the lead on the battlefield, but even Nanchang City had already been arranged, and now, is King Ning really as Wang Laohu wrote, and his qi has run out.

"Take it down first, and keep it under strict control." Wang Laohu commanded.

Leaving with Hou Ping, Zhang Zhengdao: "Son, there is something I want to report to you, Li Tian, Li Tian is ......." ”

"Li Tian, what's wrong with him?"

Several members of the Minghu team carried up a person, who was wearing a masked newspaper, which was unique to the second team of the Minghu, and was embroidered with a tiger character in a masked suit. Wang Laohu had a bad feeling in his heart, this person, he would be...... He stepped forward to take a look, and then looked at Zhang Zheng. Finally, he wiped off the cloth that had been brought up by the masked man and saw his face clearly.

Li Tian, it turned out that the person who came up was Li Tian. Wang Laohu had tears in his eyes, this brother who was born and died with him, but he didn't expect to die here.

"I buried Brother Li Tian well." Wang Laohu said.

By the time Wang Laohu and the others arrived at Songhukou, the battle here was over. Chang Yuchun and Qishun stepped forward and said, "Childe." ”

"Yuchun, Qishun, have you found King Ning?" Wang Laohu asked.

"King Ning doesn't know where he is hiding, and our people haven't found him." Often meet the spring road.

"Did King Ning just disappear like this? Immediately send someone to continue the search, and you must find him. Wang Laohu said.

"Will King Ning run back to Nanchang City?" Rong Yu asked.

Wang Laohu thought for a while and said, "Impossible, I have already told him that the flower god who came back from Nanchang City will be my person, and the possibility of him returning to Nanchang City is very small, and King Ning will not risk going back." ”

"That's weird, where will King Ning go?" Rong Yu said.

"There are several generals under King Ning, Duanmu, and Qi Lian, I know that Qi Lian was ordered to guard Nanchang, so where is Duanmu? and the Tang King who counterjudged with him. Wang Laohu said.

"King Tang has been captured by us, but it's really strange that we haven't found Duanmu either." Often meet the spring road.

Among the soldiers who died, after careful identification by everyone, Duanmu was not found.

Could it be that he, like King Ning, fled?

Now there is still hope, King Ning is back in Nanchang City, and Wang Laohu hopes to find him in Nanchang City.

Nanchang City.

"Prince Wang." The fairy greeted him at the gate of the city, "Nanchang City opened its doors to welcome the prince." ”

Wang Laohu and Wang Sizhong arrived in Nanchang City together, Wang Laohu said: "Okay, fairy girl, let me introduce you, this one is Wang Sizhong." ”

The fairy saluted Wang Sizhong.

"Fairy girl, when did you control Nanchang City?" Wang Laohu asked.

"Back to Wang Gongzi, we took down Qilian and King Kang who came with us two days ago." The fairy said.

The fairy recalled the events of the previous two days, "'King Kang, General Qi, let's have a bowl. 'Fairy said.

'Good, good. The fairy girl's wine still has to be drunk. King Kang said.

Qi Lian was still a little worried, because it was his responsibility to guard Nanchang City, and he said, "You drink, I have a heavy responsibility." If the thieves attack again, what should we do? ’

"General Qi, you are too disappointed, everyone is so happy, but you say such things, besides, Wang Laohu's people have not come to attack the city for two days, they must be afraid of us." 'Fairy said.

'The fairy girl is right, we and the flowers

When the gods arrived in Nanchang City, those thieves were afraid and would not come again. King Kang said.

You see that the past two days have been peaceful, maybe Wang Laohu has already sent someone here, so it's not wrong to be careful. Qi Lian said.

General Qi is reasonable, but no matter how much you drink, it doesn't have much effect. King Kang said.

'Yes, General Qi, aren't you as good as me as a woman? As he spoke, the fairy raised the bowl in his hand, came to Qi Lian's side, and said again, "General Qi, we drank this bowl." ’

Qi Lian was also embarrassed, so he had to raise the bowl in his hand, barely bumped into the fairy, and drank a bowl of goodong.

With the first bowl, this second bowl is much easier to say.

'Haha, you're right. King Kang said, "Come, come, this king will also give you a bowl." ’

After a few rounds of wine, King Kang's wine came up, and Qi Lian was a little more conservative, but there were also seven or eight bowls of belly.

The fairy smiled, and glanced at the left and right protectors who had been standing aside, and they would understand, looked around carefully, and gently pulled out the arrow in their hands.

The right protector drew his sword and slashed the guards behind King Kang with one blow, and the left protector rushed behind General Qi and also dealt with one of the soldiers he had brought. Qi Lian drank the wine, and was frightened by the unusual behavior of these two Dharma protectors, and most of them sobered up.

'What are you doing here?' Qi Lian asked.

'Don't you see that?' The fairy said, "We were ordered by the prince to come back and forth to guard Nanchang City." ’

'Prince Wang? ’

'My son, you also know, is the famous Wang Laohu. 'Fairy said.

'King Tiger! Qi Lian was taken aback, "It turns out that you are Wang Laohu's people." ’

'You know it's too late. The fairy said, "Today is the day to take Nanchang City." ’

Qi Lian put his hand on the waist knife he was carrying, and said, "Do you think that if you take me, you will be able to take Nanchang City?" There are tens of thousands of generals defending the city, and your plan will not succeed. ’

You mean that your group of soldiers, how many people can be loyal to you, as long as you solve these sworn friends of yours, the rest of the people will not worry. 'Fairy said.

If you really want to do that, you'll have to get past me. Qi Lian said and pulled out the waist knife on his body, a whirlwind stood up from the ground, and the right protector flew forward with a sword, and the sword flew straight over and hit the knife on Qi's side. 'When, when' the sword and the sword light and sword shadow, the left protector also flew up with a sword, raising his sword from the side and stabbing directly.

Two swords, one knife, the three of them fought in the room like this, after all, they drank a few more bowls, and after more than ten moves with the left and right protectors, they were caught. ”

"We have investigated the cronies of Qi Lian and King Kang, and we have arrested them together at the time of the incident." Fairy Road.

"Okay, okay." Wang Laohu said, "The fairy girl is really good. ”

"Compared to Wang Gongzi, my methods are far worse." Fairy Road.

What happened two days ago, King Ning should have been lost after this incident. "In the past two days, have there been any unusual people coming to Nanchang City?" Wang Laohu asked.

"I knew it was a very important thing, so I had the gates guarded. We have strictly restricted the number of people entering and leaving the city for two days, and we have not found any strange or new people entering the city. "Fairy said.

"Elder Wang, although we defeated King Ning, there is still one more thing, from Tiehe to Luo Zixing to Nanchang, we have not seen King Ning."

Wang Sizhong said: "If you don't catch King Ning, this matter will not be over." Fortunately, we have already taken Nanchang City, and we can give the emperor an explanation. ”

At this time, Wang Laohu was thinking about several other things, the first thing, how to deal with the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses captured from King Ning; The second thing, it was wishful thinking to resist King Ning and was not authorized, and now that the matter has reached this point, after the matter is over, he will go to the capital to bear the guilt. No matter how it will be dealt with in the future, Wang Laohu will have to face this wave.

"Elder Wang, we are here to resist King Ning, but the emperor has no other news, until now that the matter has subsided, the emperor has no news."

"There will be news soon." Wang Sizhong said, "We are holding the banner of righteousness, and we have done it, so we are not afraid of anything else." ”

It turned out that Wang Sizhong also knew the consequences of this incident.

"Elder Wang, Nanchang City is very important, King Ning didn't catch it, I'm afraid that he will return to the city, so I will let Chang Yuchun stay in Nanchang, and I will withdraw my people when the court rearranges people to be stationed in Nanchang."

"It's very appropriate for you to do this, Nanchang is King Ning's lair, there will still be people who are loyal to him in Lengbuding City, and besides, King Ning has nowhere to go now, and it is very likely that he will sneak back to Nanchang."

Wang Laohu nodded and said, "Elder Wang, this Nanchang still needs you to watch more, and you can't let King Ning's death regain its ignition." ”

"I understand that." Wang Sizhong said, "King Ning's matter, but let me know some things, people are warm and cold, for the sake of this black veil on the top, some timid people are afraid of things and can't make a difference, but you, General Wang, the old man is impressed with you." ”

"Thanks to the king's affordability, I can make you look up to it, I am also content in this life, and this life is in vain." Wang Laohu said, "Since this matter has come to an end, I will leave Jiangxi first and go to the capital to report to the emperor." ”

"General Wang dares to act boldly, he is a real hero, and the old man admires it from the bottom of his heart. I believe that the emperor will investigate Qiu Hao. Wang Sizhong said.

Nanchang City.

Wang Laohu thought that this was his last night in the city, and after tonight, he didn't know what would happen tomorrow. What will the emperor do with him? But he knew that King Ning had done such a rebellious thing this time, and the emperor would not sit idly by

, He has not given an order, does it mean that the emperor has a lot of things that he can't be autonomous, and he has become such a big master in this matter, how will he do it, and how will the Eight Tigers deal with himself.

But I have to face it.

"Childe, you call me." Chang Yuchun came to Wang Laohu's room.

"Oh, yes. Tomorrow I will go to the capital to see the emperor, you will follow Wang Lao to guard Nanchang, and keep an eye on Nanchang City, pay more attention to your side, and see if King Ning is still staying in Nanchang City. ”

"Yes, Childe."

"In addition, I want to go and see the people we have captured, they are going to the capital with me tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Jail.

This time to suppress King Ning, the results are quite fruitful, and he has captured two generals of King Ning, Hou Ping and Qi Lian, two King Kang and King Tang who are pro-King Ning, and in addition, there are Mu Huaying. Among these people, Wang Laohu mainly came to see Mu Huaying.

Wang Laohu had just entered the prison, Mu Huaying was sitting on the bed, the bed in this prison was not as good as the bed of ordinary people, there was no comfort at all, it was simple, and there were only a few straws on the bed.

Wang Laohu waved his hand at Chang Yuchun and the other guards behind him, signaling them to go out, and Chang Yuchun and the others hugged Wang Laohu and retreated.

Wang Laohu came to the outside of the prison, and the wooden fence in the prison stopped him, Mu Huaying was in the prison, and Wang Laohu was outside the prison. He didn't speak, and kept looking at Mu Huaying in the prison, for a long, long time.

"I heard that the god of flowers will arrest you, and you will be captured without resisting." Wang Laohu said.

Mu Huaying didn't look at Wang Laohu, and said, "It's all your people all around, what's the use of me resisting?" ”

"It's not like your personality." Wang Laohu said, "Now that the matter has come to this point, it is useless, tomorrow I will take you to the capital and listen to the fate of the Hou." ”

Mu Huaying smiled and said, "I already knew that I was ending up like this. ”

"If you had listened to me and left King Ning, this would not have been the result."

"I don't blame anyone, I chose this path myself."

Wang Laohu also smiled and said, "Do you remember what I said?" Justice may come late, but it will not be absent, you suffered at that age that you should not have suffered, and there was no one to help you sort it out. What you did at the beginning was just to avenge yourself, brutally murder the teacher, and bury the notoriety of your great witch. What happened afterwards was all your self-violence and did the wrong thing according to people's orders, I know that you are kind, so I want to fight for you. ”

"Huh." Mu Huaying smiled from the bottom of her heart, "This is my life." ”

"Have you ever heard of a change of life?" Wang Laohu asked.

Mu Huaying said puzzledly: "Change your life? How to change your life. ”

"Do you know what my fate is?"

"Your fate? You were born in a wealthy family, and your destiny is to be superior to others, without worrying about food and clothing, and you do not understand the suffering of the common people. ”

"This is just the surface of what you see, the previous me, you may not know, everyone hates, I have died once and changed my fate. Now, you too can change your destiny. ”

Mu Huaying shook her head and said, "It's too late, it's too late." ”

"If I gave you a chance, let you go, and choose your own path again, would you be willing?"

"You'll let me go?" Mu Huaying turned around and glanced at Wang Laohu.

Wang Laohu nodded and said, "I came today to let you go." ”

"I'm a court criminal, if you let me go, can you still be your commander? You have also committed a great sin. ”

"Do you think I'm not guilty of a great sin now? This time, I went out to study King Ning, and using soldiers without permission is a capital crime, and I am guilty of a capital crime, so what does it matter if I have one more? ”

Mu Huaying didn't expect that Wang Laohu would send troops privately, and along the way, he only relied on his own soldiers and horses to block King Ning's 200,000 people, blocked King Ning, and relieved the emperor's worries, but he still had to go to the capital to confess the crime, this kind of injustice not only happened to himself, but even a big official like the prefect could not escape the fate.

"Miss Mu, I have already arranged the back road for my family, you know that I am guilty of a capital crime, and my family will also be implicated because of it, so after I go to Beijing, I will let them go west."

"Heading west? The whole world is the imperial land, can they walk? Mu Huaying said.

"I know that all the land under heaven is the imperial land. But there are many mountains and mountains to the west, and there are many places to hide, and I have asked my generals to keep them safe, so that I can walk with some peace of mind. ”

Mu Huaying said: "It turns out that you have done so many things for your family. ”

"You don't know yet, I'm an ungrateful, strange-minded person, I've given all the ladies a layman, and I'm much more at ease along the way."

"Hehe, you're boasting about yourself, in order to protect them from being implicated, you divorced them, but you still want to send them to the west together, what does this mean?"

"You say that people are strange creatures, and it's hard to really let go of one thing." Wang Laohu said.

"If you can't let it go, why deceive yourself."

Wang Laohu thought, what Mu Huaying said was not unreasonable, he couldn't let it go, but he still needed to let go, in the face of the unknowns in the capital, he had to grasp the stakes and make plans early.

It's dawn. On this day, Wang Lao Hu will take Hou Ping, Qi Lian, King Kang, Tang Wang and others, accompanied by more than 2,000 horses such as Qishun, as well as Zhang Zheng, Rong Yu and others.

The Hujia army was led back to Hangzhou by Jia Wang to stand by, and the disciples of the Flower God Congregation still returned to Huaide first and waited for incorporation. The rest of the Hangcheng command post was brought back to Hangcheng by Qiu Huaishi.

I don't know the danger of going to the capital this time, and Wang Laohu doesn't have any bottom, so on the basis of more than 2,000 horses, he also secretly brought more than 500 members of the second team of Minghu by Qingyi to go north together in case of accidents.
