In the dense forest about two miles outside Zhongshan Wuji City, Zhen Yi looked at Wuji City with a gloomy expression when he learned that the housekeeper and the other family members did not follow in order to delay time. γLatest chapter reading. γ
"Master, it's not easy to stay here for a long time! The price of the old housekeeper and those family members with their lives is to hope that the head of the family can successfully break out of the encirclement and return to Liaodong safely. Otherwise, all the hard work and sacrifices of the old housekeeper will be in vain, and the princess and mother are still looking forward to the safe arrival of the head of the family in Liaodong as soon as possible, please get on the war horse quickly! Gao Shun on the side fully understood the grief in Zhen Yi's heart at this time, but it was not safe here at the moment, once Feng Ji found that Zhen Yi was missing, he would inevitably go out of the city to search and pursue on a large scale, so he must take this opportunity to quickly get out of the encirclement, and carefully help Zhen Yi to step onto the war horse at the moment.
Gao Shun's preparation can be described as very thorough, in order to increase the chance of a successful breakthrough, all the war horses' hooves are wrapped with thick cloth, just like this, under the cover of the dense forest, Gao Shun covered Zhen Yi quietly and quickly got out of the heavy encirclement of Feng Ji.

In Wuji's Zhen Mansion, Feng Ji led a large number of soldiers to rush into the hall and found the bodies of the old housekeeper and all the family members.
"Go up and see if Zhen Yi committed suicide in fear of sin." Feng Ji commanded his subordinates on the surface, "Hmph! If you want to kill yourself, I will never let you die so happily. In his heart, he thought viciously.
"Report, General Feng, Zhen Yi is not here!" The soldier replied after turning over the bodies one by one.
"No?" There was no one here, and Feng Ji didn't give up and took a closer look at it in person, "Don't pull the entire Zhen Mansion up and down for me to search carefully." β
β¦β¦γ
"Report, General Feng, we searched up and down the Zhen Mansion, but we still didn't find any trace of Zhen Yi, and there seems to be no one else in the entire Zhen Mansion except for these dozen corpses." One of Feng Kee's generals said.
"What?" Feng Ji roared a little out of shape, and his face was extremely distorted.
Feng Ji Tie came to the front of the general in charge of the siege with a blue face, slapped him fiercely at the moment, and was furious: "Didn't you say that you can't even run a fly? Where are the others now? β
The general said in fear: "Big ...... My lord, before the last general besieged the city, according to the report of the spies in the city, Zhen Yi's was indeed still in the Zhen Mansion. β
"And what about the others now?" Feng Ji was still furious.
"My lord, even outside the city, there is nothing out of the ordinary. It seemed as if Zhen Yi had suddenly disappeared out of thin air. β
"Disappear into thin air?" Feng Ji was puzzled, "Immediately send someone to carefully inspect inside and outside the city, Zhen Yi, I want to see people alive and dead to see corpses!" β
"My lord, are these corpses going to ......?" A soldier asked.
"Humph! Since you are so willing to die in place of Zhen Yi, then it will be fulfilled for you, put these corpses outside the gate of Zhen's mansion, and first storm the corpses for three days! "The extreme way of shamelessness.
Originally, the soldiers were moved by the sacrificial spirit of these people and were ready to ask Feng Ji to bury them in the ground, but they didn't expect Feng Ji to even let go of the corpses, and the soldiers couldn't help but hesitate.
Seeing that the soldiers were grinding and grinding, and not catching Zhen Yi had already made Feng Ji's psychology a little perverted, and now the soldiers were a little reluctant to carry out the order, and said angrily: "What are you still doing in a daze, do you want to disobey the order?" β
The soldiers trembled when they heard this, and the soldiers knew very well the means of killing people in discipline, so they slowly dragged the corpses out.
And one of the fast bluestones vaguely seemed to have some traces of rubbing, but it was covered by the blood of the housekeeper and the family, and was ignored by Feng Ji and the others.
β¦β¦γ
"What's going on?" In the Yecheng conference hall, Yuan Shao also looked a little out of shape when he heard Feng Ji's return, and said in shock.
"Back to the lord, Feng Ji turned the entire Wuji City inside and out, but he couldn't find Zhen Yi, just like ......?" In the end, Feng Ji was a little slurred.
"Like what?" Yuan Shao gradually recovered, but his expression was still unpleasant.
"Back to the lord, it's as if he disappeared out of thin air!" In order to avoid Yuan Shao's blame, Feng Ji could only use this argument to shirk.
"Disappearing into thin air? How is this possible? Yuan Shao didn't believe it.
"So, has the Zhen family's property been seized?" At that moment, Yuan Shao asked eagerly, this is what Yuan Shao is most concerned about.
"Back to the lord, the Zhen family's huge family property seems to have disappeared overnight, and there is nothing." Whenever he thinks back to the soldier talking about this, Feng Ji feels a little incredulous, how can the Zhen family's huge family property be said to be nothing?
"What?" After listening to Feng Ji's answer, Yuan Shao's body was a little far away and he almost fainted.
"Father, Lord,......γ"
At this time, I saw a person walking out slowly and asked, "Yuan Tu, are you saying that before the siege, Zhen Yi was still in the mansion, but when he attacked it, Zhen Yi suddenly disappeared?" β
This person is another strategist under Yuan Shao - Xu You.
"Exactly!" Feng Ji replied.
After hearing this, Xu You pondered for a while and said, "Yuan Tu, where are those corpses found?" β
"In the hall of the back garden of the Zhen Mansion."
"Yuan Tu, immediately send someone to the hall in the back garden of the Zhen Mansion, and carefully look for it to see if there is a passage like an authentic passage?" Xu You suggested.
"Impossible! Even if he really had a tunnel or something, it would have to go all the way outside the city, and such a project would not be able to be completed in a short time! "Actually, Feng Ji didn't think of the tunnel, but it was not easy to dig a tunnel to the outside of the city in a short time.
Xu You also fell into deep thought after listening to Feng Ji's words, and obviously realized this.
However, who would have thought that as early as a year ago, Wang Tianjie had sent Gao Shun and three thousand cavalry elites to secretly protect Zhen Yi's safety.
After Gao Shun, who was ordered to protect Zhen Yi's safety, secretly came to Zhongshan Wuji, he knew very well that Zhen Yi must not make the slightest mistake in the matter of secretly transferring family property. Because, this is not only related to Zhen Yi's safety, but also directly affects the success or failure of the lord's great cause! The whole intention must not be exposed because of their arrival, which Gao Shun will never allow. Therefore, Gao Shun, who had already come to Zhongshan Wuji, did not choose to contact Zhen Yi directly, but secretly protected Zhen Yi. At the same time, Gao Shun disguised himself as a horse dealer and entered Zhongshan Wuji many times, constantly observing the architectural layout of Zhongshan and the specific location of Zhen's mansion.
Therefore, as early as a year ago, he had already ordered the soldiers to secretly start digging from the dense forest outside Wuji City, and it took almost a year to finally open this simple underground passage to the outside of the city before Feng Ji.
Getting back to business, Yecheng, Jizhou.
Yuan Xi, who was beside Yuan Shao, suddenly asked, "General Feng, did Zhen Mi catch it?" Yuan Xilai said that the most concerned thing at present is Zhen Mi's problem.
"Back to the second son, Zhen Mi seems to have followed Wang Tianjie to Liaodong a year ago." This was heard by Feng Ji when he was searching for Zhen Yi's whereabouts in Zhongshan Wuji.
"What? Hasn't Zhen Mi always been in Zhongshan Wuji Zhen Mansion? Didn't anyone else see her in Wuji a few days ago? Yuan Xi also said loudly in disbelief.
"Back to the second son, it was actually Zhen Yi who found a maid in the house to pretend, and every time he went out, he brought a fake yarn that no one knew, but a year ago, someone seemed to see that Miss Zhen had left in a carriage with Wang Tianjie." Feng Ji recounted.
"It can't be!" Thinking that Zhen Mi was already lying in someone else's arms now, Yuan Xi's face turned pale, and his already extremely distorted face could not see the originally handsome face at all, and it looked so hideous and terrifying.
Although Zhen Mi doesn't like it, he can even say that he hates him to the core.
"You mean a year ago?" Xu You, who had been deep in thought, suddenly asked.
"Looks like it should be." Feng Ji couldn't be sure.
"Lord, if this is the case, all mysteries will be solved, why did Zhen Yihui suddenly disappear when the general attacked Zhen's mansion? Why did the Zhen family's huge funds suddenly fly overnight? Then, he turned his head to Feng Ji and said, "General Feng, you immediately send someone to the hall in the back garden of the Zhen Mansion, there must be a tunnel leading to the outside of the city in the hall." β
β¦β¦γ
"Back to the lord, after careful searching, I did find that the passage was found under the big bluestone in the hall, and the exit was found in the dense forest in the north outside the city." Feng Ji confirmed.
"Good! It's you Wang Tianjie again! After being confirmed, Yuan Shao's fists were already a little white.
"Ziyuan (Xu Youzi), do you think Zhen Yi and his party have escaped from Jizhou now?" Yuan Shaoqiang suppressed the anger in his heart and asked Xu You.
"Back to the lord, Zhen Yi and his party will never dare to run away openly and rashly, then their whereabouts will inevitably be exposed, coupled with the vast area of Jizhou, depending on the situation, Zhen Yi and their party should not have enough time to escape from Jizhou now. So, it's still too late. Xu Yu said slowly.
From Xu You's strategic analysis, it can be seen that Xu You does have his advantages, but he just doesn't use the place.
Knowing that he could still catch Zhen Yi, Yuan Xi gritted his teeth and said: "Father, Zhen Yi dares to betray your father, and you must not let them go!" β
Now, Yuan Xi can be said to have hated Zhen Yi to the core, it was Zhen Yi's excuse to shirk that he had not been able to get Zhen Mi, and now Zhen Yi actually gave Zhen Mi to a little-known nobody, and he was unwilling to marry his Yuan family, how could Yuan Xi, who had always been high-eyed and arrogant, swallow this evil breath.
"Pass my order, all the troops in Jizhou act immediately, and they must go all out to hunt down Zhen Yi, and they must not let him escape from the territory of Jizhou, whether they live or die!" It seems that Yuan Shao already hates Zhen Yi at this moment.
Although with the help of Gao Shun and three thousand elite cavalry, Zhen Yi was able to escape from Ascension under the heavy encirclement of the army led by Feng Ji, but Gao Shun and Zhen Yi are about to face the frantic slaughter of millions of troops of Yuan Shao's army, and face the test of life and death, how should Gao Shun escape the crazy killing of Yuan Shao's army......?
