The side alleys and corridors surrounding the inner garden of the Qingyuan Duhu Mansion are guarded by government soldiers, but they are far away from the back hall, and they can't hear the sound of fighting here, and when the servants who heard the movement rushed over to inquire, the warrior loyal to Zhou Xuan stopped in front of the door and said: "Madame Yu is secretly interrogating important criminals inside, and she is being executed, so you should retreat, don't disturb." ”

As it was, the servants and servants all retreated with relief.

The ropes are all ready-made, Lan Xiangyu and Lan Lianchang sisters and brothers were tied so strongly that they fell to the ground, Lan Xiangyu's right shoulder was severely injured, it is estimated that it was dislocated, and the pain was so painful that she broke out in a cold sweat and shrunk her legs, but there was still half of her snow-white round thighs exposed outside the raised royal blue tube skirt.

There were bloodshot at the corners of Lan Lianchang's mouth, Zhou Xuan's kick was so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist or relieve the pain, and the shock in his heart was even worse than the pain in his lower abdomen: "Who is the person who kicked me?" Why is the voice so familiar, and the appearance is familiar, Pan Yujiao calls him the county prince-

"Zhou Xuan, he's Zhou Xuan!" Lan Lianchang shouted, he was lying on his stomach now, turned his head to take a look, and confirmed whether it was Zhou Xuan?

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "It's not too late for Gongzi Lian Chang to wake up, Ma Huiling said goodbye, I didn't expect to meet again in this situation!" Alas, the world has been turned upside down, and it is difficult to reverse the expectations! ”

Lan Lianchang's reaction was not slow, he quickly figured it out, and said angrily: "Xiahou tassel! It must be Xiahou Tassel's cheap maid who helped you do this trick, this has really become the scourge of my Qingyuan, and I regret not killing her early! ”

Zhou Xuan raised his foot and kicked him in the back of the waist and shouted: "Lan Lianchang is rude! Xiahou tassel is my wife's room, and if you dare to say disrespectful words, torture waits. ”

Lan Xiangyu spoke: "Is this the famous Marquis Zhou?" Lan Xiangyu is not unjust when it falls into the hands of Zhou Houye, I don't know what Zhou Houye is going to do with my sister and brother? ”

Zhou Xuan sneered twice, but did not answer, putting mental pressure on Lan Xiangyu's sister and brother.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone outside the hall shouting: "Lord Du Hu has arrived!" ”

The four idiots kicked out very quickly, and the two kicks hit the back of Lan Xiangyu's sister and brother's neck. The two of them could not speak.

Chen Si'an, who was tall and thin and white-faced and bearded, came down to the front of the back hall stairs surrounded by a group of civil officials and military generals, and the four Qingyuan warriors who had been loyal to Zhou Xuan who had stayed in the front hall before followed at this time.

At this time, it was already the end of the unitary period, the sky was dark, and Chen Si'an stood at the foot of the steps. frowned and said, "Why don't you have the lights in the hall?" Lianchang - Lianchang - "

Two people, one tall and one short, bowed and saluted together, and the tall one bent down and raised his face so that Chen Si'an could recognize him, and said: "Lord Duhu, Mrs. Yu and Prince Lian Chang have taken Pan Yujiao to the secret room of the bamboo forest in the back garden for interrogation, and let the humble post wait here for the lord to come back." ”

Chen Si'an let out an "oh". The mood was agitated, and he caught Pan Yujiao, which was enough to reverse the defeat, and nodded: "The five of you have made great contributions, and when Deputy Lieutenant Xiahou comes back, you will be rewarded together." He walked towards the bamboo forest secret room in the back garden, and suddenly his left arm was grabbed by a person beside him. A voice said urgently: "There is blood!" ”

It was at this time that the four idiots made a sassy move. The body is like a wind, the knife is like lightning, and he bullied Chen Si'an with a snap of his fingers. The shakugo short knife pointed directly at Chen Si'an's throat——

With a sound of "bang", a knife in the horizontal ground opened the four idiots with a thunderous blow.

The shouts were loud, and in an instant, there were five or six people stopped in front of Chen Si'an, all of them were strong in martial arts, holding swords in their hands, and the four idiots who were good at ambushing and assassination were helpless in the face of this situation, and if they were entangled slightly, then there would be more and more enemies. The situation is very bad. Although there are Lan Xiangyu's sisters and brothers as hostages, Chen Si'an may not necessarily be able to throw a mouse bogey.

Hearing this, Zhou Xuan shouted: "Don't do it yet." When? ”

The four warriors who followed behind Chen Si'an raised their swords, two of them slashed over the captain Si Li on Chen Si'an's side, and the other two put their knives on Chen Si'an's neck.

Everyone was shocked, and the fight stopped.

Chen Si'an was only wary of the four idiots in front of him, where did he think that the warrior behind him would fight back! was held on the neck by two knives, creepy, and did not dare to move.

The firelight in the hall was reflected, and Pan Yujiao and the Qingyuan warrior walked out carrying Lan Xiangyu and Lan Lianchang respectively.

The four idiots retreated to Zhou Xuan's side, beware of cold arrows.

Zhou Xuan stood on the high stairs and said loudly: "I am Zhou Xuan, the official of Xinzhou County of the Tang Kingdom, and I was ordered by the Tang Emperor to arrest Chen Si'an, and as long as the rest of the people repent, surrender and surrender, they will not be held accountable for the crime of rebellion." ”

The crowd was shocked again and looked at each other.

Zhou Xuan took advantage of their shock and motioned for the four warriors to escort Chen Si'an over and stay away from Chen Si'an's subordinates.

Chen Si'an suffered a big change, the steel knife was added to his neck, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and he heard that the guy with thick eyebrows and thin eyes in front of him was actually Zhou Xuan, and he really couldn't understand how Zhou Xuan suddenly appeared in his capital protection mansion? How could his underground warriors help Zhou Xuan counterattack him?

The fire in the hall is getting brighter and brighter, it turned out that it was not a light, but Pan Yujiao put a fire on the hall, and the fire burned bigger and bigger, and the fire would spread out immediately.

Zhou Xuan said: "Chen Si'an, you are gone, accept your fate, I don't want to hurt people's lives, I won't hurt your family, hurry up and let people put out the fire, don't burn the entire Duhu Mansion to ashes." ”

Chen Si'an blushed his face and gritted his teeth and said: "Tear down the fire road, don't let the fire spread." ”

Zhou Xuan's eight people escorted Chen Si'an and Lan Xiangyu's sister and brother to the gate of the Duhu Mansion, and ordered to prepare three carriages, Zhou Xuan escorted Chen Si'an, Pan Yujiao escorted Lan Xiangyu, and a Qingyuan warrior escorted Lan Lianchang, respectively, and sat in the carriage, and the four idiots and the other four Qingyuan warriors who surrendered to Cheng followed both sides of the carriage and went to the west gate.

At this time, Quanzhou City was full of flames, and it was dozens of Panshi Shanha sent by Pan Yujiao and scattered in the city to set fire.

Zhou Xuan lifted the curtain of the car and let Chen Si'an see the scene of the fire in the city, and Chen Si'an's face was like ashes.

It's ridiculous that people keep chasing after the carriage, not trying to rescue Chen Si'an, but reporting to Chen Si'an, reporting that there is a fire here, and there is a fire there, and that the Tang Army's forward troops have broken through the defense line of Dongtian and Xiangyundi, and are approaching the south gate and the west gate.

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "It seems that Chen Duhu is too authoritarian in peacetime, and now there are no dragons, completely scattered sand, open the west and south gates, order the defenders not to resist, surrender is the only way out, His Majesty the Tang Emperor is merciful, you can keep the head of Xiang Shang, you will be a loose official with no power and no position in Jinling, and you can live a lifetime under the forest." ”

Chen Si'an was tied into a zongzi, silent, the carriage swayed, the firelight dragged down, Zhou Xuandi's words made him feel extremely absurd, this is a dream, my Chen family has been worried about the eleven counties of Qingyuan Erzhou that have been operating for decades, and this is the end? My Chen Si'an's fate was decided by this Zhou Xuan? No, it must be a dream, a nightmare, just wake up-

Chen Si'an is not a nerd after all, this kind of thought is just a flash, he understands that the real trend has gone, and the thousand-mile causeway will collapse once it collapses, and it is no longer possible to clean it up.

Not only did Chen Si'an feel like he was dreaming, but Chen Kai and Chen Ji's uncle and nephew, who led the army into Quanzhou City in the early morning of the next day, were also like a dream, and Quanzhou City was taken without spending a single soldier!

Zhou Xuan, Chen Kai and Chen Ji met, and they were overjoyed, and they came out to calm the people and appease Chen Si'an's subordinates.

In the evening of the same day, Zhou Xuan hosted a banquet for Chen Kai's uncle and nephew, Pan Yujiao, and the generals of various armies in the Qingyuan Protectorate.

Pan Yujiao drank a lot of wine, and she was not humble to Zhou Xuan's praise of her, and accepted it calmly, but her eyes were a little more tender.

The five Qingyuan warriors were also at the banquet, and Zhou Xuan immediately told Chen Shilang about the promise he had made to five people and five ranks, and asked Chen Shilang to show the merits of these five people when he reported his merits to the imperial court.

Chen Kai laughed and said: "The virtuous nephew has made this miraculous feat, how can Your Majesty pity this military lord!" ”

The five Qingyuan warriors were all overjoyed, thanked Zhou Xuan and Chen Shilang, and followed Pan Yujiao's men to pick up their families outside the city overnight.

The four idiots didn't drink, knelt quietly beside Zhou Xuan, and reminded: "Master, tomorrow I have to fight insects with the Snow Pig Prince, where are the insects?" Aren't you going to catch tonight? ”

Zhou Xuan was three points drunk, and said with a smile: "Pass the order, let the people of Quanzhou offer green-backed crickets, there is a heavy reward, I don't believe that there are few good insects in the huge Quanzhou City!" ”

The four idiots said: "Didn't the Snow Pig Prince say that he could only catch it by himself when he made a bet?" ”

Zhou Xuan shook his head and smiled, this fourth child was really brainless, so he said: "Tomorrow, the people will offer fierce insects, and you will quietly place them in front of my door, and I will wake up in the morning and catch them?" ”

The fourth idiot knew that Zhou Xuan was talking about helping the third brother again, so she snorted lightly, got up and went out by herself, she wanted to catch a good insect with her own hands.

Today's mood is comfortable, Zhou Xuan is half drunk, Chen Ji helped him back to the room to rest, it is an independent courtyard in the Qingyuan Protectorate, more than ten exquisite wooden buildings, Chen Si'an's concubine who originally lived here has been cleared out for Zhou Xuan and Chen Ji to live temporarily.

After the two of them finished bathing, they were about to talk at night, when they suddenly heard a guard outside the door say in a deep voice: "Zhou Jungong has rested, please don't disturb Lord Pan." ”

I heard a crisp female voice say again: "Just now, why did you fall asleep, are you so drunk?"
