A torch burned, making a crackling sound, and the firelight flickered, illuminating Yu Wenwen's face uncertainly, and at this moment, he sat on the edge of the couch in the palace dormitory.

According to the palace maid, this is the couch where the Son of Heaven slept and Queen Yi also slept with him.

The Son of Heaven is Yuwen Wen's son Yuwen Weicheng, and Queen Yi is his princess Wei Chi Chifan.

Yuwen Weicheng is still a child, although he has slept alone when he was in the palace, but after being proclaimed as the new monarch (puppet emperor), there are strangers everywhere, and of course he has to be accompanied by his mother when he sleeps at night.

Yuwen Wen sat on the couch where his wife and children had slept dejectedly, without saying a word, closing his eyes and sniffing lightly, wanting to smell the smell of his wife and children, but except for the residual smell of incense, he couldn't smell the familiar smell.

The firelight outside the hall flickered, and the shouts, fights, and wails converged into a sea, but it had nothing to do with him, opened his eyes, looked around, and looked at the dormitory where his wife and children had lived for several months, Yuwen Wen was speechless and choked.

When he first came in, he scurried around like a headless fly, trying to find traces of his wife and children's lives to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

However, nothing useful was found, and according to the palace maid, when the Son of Heaven and Queen Yi left, they took away their clothes and common utensils, and all that was left were large items that did not need to be taken away, such as the couch.

None of the bedding covered by his wife and children was there, and Yu Wenwen touched the couch several times, trying to find what small toys his son left behind, and trying to find any jewelry left by his wife, but found nothing.

He only felt sad in his heart, he had worked very hard, took a huge risk to plan a night attack, tried his best to attack the enemy camp, and came to the palace, thinking that he could save his wife and children, but he did not expect to pounce.

Yuwen Wen clenched his fists and gasped: Obviously... Obviously I've worked hard, why...

Zhang Yu stood not far away, silent, Yuwen Wen's performance after entering the palace was extremely abnormal, and he was no longer in high spirits, like a poor man who lost his wife in middle age and children in his old age, desperately looking for the relics of his relatives and wanted to leave a memory.

He didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only stand silently, but the master mother and Xiao Langjun just went to Yecheng, and there will definitely be a chance to save them in the future.

And now, there is a war going on outside, and you can't stay here for a long time, Zhang Yu feels that Lord Lang, as the commander of the whole army, can't stay too long, so as not to be taken advantage of.

Just as he was about to say something, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, Zhang Yu turned his head to look, but saw a group of soldiers coming to the outside of the hall, stopped by the guards at the door, and after whispering a few words, the soldiers walked in with a man.

Zhang Yu stepped forward with a knife, he would not be easily fooled, Lord Lang was in a bad mood at this time, and he was in a trance, who wanted to approach at this time, he had to check it well, so he had to interrogate him carefully.

The two sides approached, and after Zhang Yu saw the man's face clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Zhang Sima?!" ”

Zhang Dingfa, who was tired, smiled at Zhang Yu, didn't care about greetings, walked towards Yuwenwen, and knelt down on one knee near the front and back: "Humble Zhang Dingfa, I am not effective in protecting the princess and the prince, so I have come to ask the king for guilt!" ”

Yu Wenwen was distracted, raised his head when he heard the words, looked at the other party blankly, and came back to his senses after a while: "Uh... Zhang Sima? ”

"Humble duty."

"You... Why is it here? That's great! ”

Yu Wenwen pulled Zhang Dingfa up, looked at the other party and asked again: "Why are you here?" ”

"The king, you are incompetent...."

"Long story short, time is urgent, this is not the place to speak."

Yu Wenwen regained his spirits, Zhang Dingfa is not the kind of mother-in-law, briefly explained why he was here, and then informed Yu Wenwen of the news: The adulterous minister somehow returned north with the Son of Heaven.

"The widow knows, it's a step too late..."

"Don't worry, the king is quite strange about returning to the north this time, I think it's something in the court?" Zhang Dingfa guessed that his news was obviously not smart enough******* he was sick, and he fell into the water in Chai Village and suffered a cold, and later his condition worsened, thinking that he was afraid of an accident and slipped back to Yecheng. ”

"I see, no wonder I suddenly returned north."

Yu Wenwen's source is the palace maid, although the palace maid has a humble status, but there are many sources, not Zhang Dingfa's 'young and strong with the army' can be compared, in fact, most people in the military camp are not clear.

Zhang Dingfa's identity is 'young and strong with the army', and there is no way to get close to the core figures, only knowing that the Son of Heaven (Shizi) and the prime minister have returned to the north, and the team is vast, and he and his subordinates who are also pretending to be 'young and strong with the army' have no reason to accompany him, so he stayed in Beidaying.

Someone attacked at night tonight, and the movement was very loud, Zhang Dingfa and his subordinates pondered it, and felt that they couldn't follow the prince back to Yecheng anyway, so it was better to 'return to the team'.

It's just that the camp is in chaos, there are fires everywhere, and it is easy to be injured by friendly soldiers who attack the camp in the chaotic army.

Zhang Dingfa and his subordinates tried their best, what else did Yu Wenwen have to blame? In the Yecheng Incident, Zhang Dingfa and others were fortunate to be able to save their lives, but as for the princess and the prince under house arrest, it was a helpless thing.

Yuwen Wen's lonely appearance, Zhang Dingfa saw it in his eyes, it was the first time he saw Yu Wenwen like this, he compared his heart to his heart, and felt empathy, if his wife Liu Caiyun and his son were arrested, he would also be restless.

It's just that Yuwenwen is so lonely that it doesn't help, Zhang Dingfa opened his mouth to persuade: "King, there is Wu Dianwei over there in Yecheng, don't worry, the king." ”

Yuwen Wen nodded when he heard this, patted Zhang Dingfa's shoulder and said with a smile: "Since you have returned to the team, let's go back to the city together!" ”

After adjusting his mood, Yu Wenwen walked out of the hall, attracted by the sky-high fire in the north, and turned his head to look, only to see that the wharf on the bank of the Rushui River and the granary where the grain was hoarded had turned into a sea of fire.

This time, Yuwenwen led the troops to attack at night, and he didn't save people, and he didn't behead him, but he burned down the granary, turned the Beida camp upside down, and turned it into a sea of fire, which was a great victory only from a military point of view.

Only the northern battalion was disturbed, but in fact not many people were killed, many enemy soldiers just broke and fled, and they could be retracted afterwards, and the enemy army still had three battalions in the east, south, and west, and the cumulative strength was still quite a lot, so the threat faced by the hanging gourd still existed.

But after burning the other party's grain and grass, the situation is different, no matter how many soldiers there are, there is no war at all without grain and grass, and the besieging army, which mainly relies on the upper reaches of Rushui to transport grain and grass, after the main granary is burned, how long can the surplus grain last?

Zhang Yu approached and reminded in a low voice: "Lord Lang, it's not too early." ”

"Then let's go, go according to the plan."

Yuwenwen walked a few steps, and suddenly looked back at the palace, looking at the couch where his wife and children had slept on, Zhang Yu thought that Lang was going to take this couch away, but he didn't know that what he heard was the order to burn the palace to the ground.

The wooden structure of the building is easy to burn, Yu Wenwen looked at the skyrocketing fire, without the slightest regret, what can he do if he takes the couch back? It's so unlucky.

He is not dead his wife and children, he has to rely on relics to remember, this time he can't save people, so next time, what if Yu Chi Chifan and Yuwen Weicheng return to Yecheng, he must attack to save people.

Thinking of this, Yuwen Wen looked to the north and sneered a few times.

Exacerbation? I wish you a cold to turn into tuberculosis!
