At this time, Ying Yi looked at Huo Jinyan, who hadn't closed his eyes for a few days, and felt very remorseful in his heart, if he hadn't disobeyed his master's order to leave Beijing, things wouldn't have turned out like this!

At that time, it was indeed as Tang Xi guessed, Ying Yi was not in the capital when she was attacked, the reason was that Huo Jinyan had left the barracks for nearly two months, but it still had an impact on the morale of the army, coupled with the sudden sneak attack of the enemy, they were defeated and withdrew from the city they had just captured.

Huo Jinyan faced such an embarrassing situation when he went back, because his mistake had such a big impact on their team, so in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Huo Jinyan immediately punished himself with one hundred lashes! And it was a public execution, without a little water was whipped a full hundred whips, after the execution, Huo Jinyan almost went to half of his life, but even though his already painful legs were weak, his face was pale and bloodless, but he still insisted on walking in front of everyone, deeply expressed his apologies to everyone, and promised that now that he is back, he will definitely make the other party pay!

Huo Jinyan's ruthlessness to himself successfully allowed him to win back the lost military heart, but the hundred whips were too ruthless, and Huo Jinyan had to lie in bed for at least a month before he could recover.

But Huo Jinyan was worried about Tang Xi and wanted to understand the matter here as soon as possible, so after just half a month's work, he didn't listen to the advice and insisted on leading the troops to attack the city in person.

The consequence of this is naturally nine deaths, although it did capture the city, but at the same time, it also made his already incomplete injuries more serious, Huo Jinyan's bedridden illness made some impure people have bad intentions, and wanted to empty his power and control him like a puppet.

So after the situation was finally stabilized, there was civil strife on their side, after Ying Yi knew, he was worried, so he ignored Huo Jinyan's instructions, left the capital and rushed to South Vietnam, although he was punished by Huo Jinyan, but in the end he helped Huo Jinyan solve the civil strife as he wished, and when he was about to leave for back, Shangguan Yu brought back a news that Tang Xi was arrested by Li Linglong.

Keichi was stunned at the time, and then immediately realized what a mistake he had made! People always have luck in their hearts, but once you have such thoughts, the final result will definitely be that reality slaps you hard.

Ying Yi is like this, because Tang Xi has been locked up in the palace by Feng Lie, so he thinks that she will not be in any danger, so he let go of Tang Xi and went back to help Huo Jinyan, but he didn't want to make a big mistake just because of this luck!

He deeply understood the importance of Tang Xi to Huo Jinyan, she was like the only beam of light shining into Huo Jinyan's heart, if something happened to her, Huo Jinyan would fall into darkness forever.

So he immediately asked for his life to go back to save people, but he still couldn't stop Huo Jinyan's desire to go back to save people in person.

Obviously, because he left without permission, he had made a big mistake before, and he was punished with a hundred lashes, but now when he heard that Tang Xi had an accident, he chose to save her in person without the slightest hesitation.

Of course, with the lesson of the last time, this time Huo Jinyan had already made proper arrangements before leaving, at least there would not be any more turmoil in the army's morale like last time, so that the enemy army would take advantage of the weakness to enter.

And when Huo Jinyan left, in order to convince others, he also promised everyone that after he returned, he would personally lead his troops to take three more cities within a month!

Three cities in a month can basically bring the progress back to a normal level, which means that his departure will not delay the progress, so after everyone discussed, they finally agreed to Huo Jinyan's request to leave.

After that, Huo Jinyan rode all the way, didn't sleep for several days, couldn't hold on until he fell asleep, and immediately continued to hurry after waking up, even Ying Yi, a person who was used to this, was already exhausted, not to mention Huo Jinyan, a person who had just recovered from a serious injury.

However, in this way, the effect is also significant, and it was supposed to take at least a month to reach Shacheng, but it was shortened to twenty days.

As soon as they arrived in Shacheng, they heard that Shacheng had closed the city gate to Beiyang, but fortunately they came from Fengyuan's territory, otherwise they would really be trapped outside the city.

Seeing that the city gate had been sealed, Huo Jinyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a cold face, "Feng Lie is still a little guts. ”

Shadow wiped the sweat from his forehead, which is called a bit of guts? You've done a great job, okay? An emperor who does this for a woman is basically ready to be scolded by the world, not everyone can be so decisive and ignore the world.

However, Ying Yi knew that Huo Jinyan was angry at this time, if Feng Lie hadn't insisted on leaving people behind, Tang Xi would not have been arrested, but if he left people but couldn't protect her, Huo Jinyan would naturally be angry.

Therefore, Ying Yi did not open his mouth to refute Huo Jinyan's words, but only opened his mouth to persuade, "Master, since Feng Lie has blocked the city gate in time, then Li Linglong and they can't escape from here, and now I don't know where they have gone, why don't you take a rest first, and I will take someone out to investigate and then think about it in the long run?" ”

Huo Jinyan frowned slightly, "No, Tang Xi will be more dangerous if he is in their hands for a moment, I have to personally take someone out to investigate." ”

Eichi hurriedly stopped, "Master, don't worry, with your current tired state, why do you spend your energy on such things that anyone can do?" It's better to recuperate, and when you find out the whereabouts of Miss Tang, you can take action yourself. ”

Seeing that Huo Jinyan had a little hesitation on his face, Ying Yi continued to say, "And you think, now the other party must have learned the news of the lockdown, so in order to ensure your own safety, it is more likely to be wandering around Shacheng, the area around Shacheng is so big, the master you are alone, at most you can investigate in one direction, in case you pick the wrong direction, you rush back from that side, but it will be a waste of time, so it is better to wait for the result, can't you shoot more accurately?" ”

Huo Jinyan pondered for a long time, and finally agreed with Ying Yi's words, he pursed his lips and said, "Okay, the matter will be handed over to you, our people have entered the city in five batches, a total of thirty people, you make proper arrangements, be sure to find Tang Xi's whereabouts as soon as possible." ”

Ying Yi promised that he would do this well, so he finally coaxed people to sleep.

Huo Jinyan was indeed too tired, almost as soon as he dipped his pillow and fell asleep, Ying Yi left two people to protect Huo Jinyan, and then gathered his subordinates who entered the city in batches outside the city, divided into six teams, and took Shacheng as the center point to go to different directions to find out the news.

And Ying Yi's guess was right, at this time, Li Linglong and the others did not enter Shacheng, but camped in the wild south of Shacheng, and at the same time sent spies to the city to find out the news, while they were recuperating and waiting for the opportunity.

Fu Jinglan had already decided to switch to Lifeng at this time, but now she didn't know the news of Lifeng, so she found an opportunity to ask Li Linglong, "Princess, does the prince have a reply?" Will he come to our rescue? ”

At the mention of this, Li Linglong's face sank, and she snorted coldly, "That fox of Li Feng, how can you bet everything with me?" He only promised to meet me outside the city, and said nothing else. ”

Hearing this, Fu Jinglan was a little discouraged in her heart, didn't that mean that she had no chance to come into contact with the strong wind at all?

But at this time, Li Linglong continued, "But Beiyang and Feng Yuan have been opposed for so many years, if you want to come to Shacheng, there must be someone who is strong in the wind, and the other party will definitely find an opportunity to assassinate Feng Lie at that time, which can be regarded as a way to help us divert our attention a little." ”

"But...... If the prince has a hand, why doesn't he say it? ”

Li Linglong sneered, "He doesn't want to expose his hole cards too early, let me do my best, and then he will catch cicadas with the praying mantis, and the yellow finch will follow, heh, it's very good, I won't let him get his wish." ”

When Fu Jinglan heard this, a glimmer of hope immediately rose in her heart, if she said this, it was still very likely that they would escape from Sand City at that time? Thinking about it, her eyes flashed, heh, as long as she can escape from Sand City, she will definitely find a chance to take Tang Xi to find Lifeng!

Early the next morning, the spies came to report, "Princess, our people have noticed that there seem to be several forces around us who are searching outside with Sand City as the center, and we are afraid that we will be discovered here in a short time." ”

Li Linglong frowned, "Tell me to go down and divide into several teams to enter the city separately." ”

The goal of their group is too big, and only by spreading out can they hide from each other's eyes and ears.

"But princess, wouldn't that be too risky?" If the princess is recognized, it will be too late for them to help.

Li Linglong shook her head, "It's okay, isn't there still Tang Xi in hand?" It's really not good to take her hostage, you can always hold on for a while, as long as you hold on until you all rush over, you still have the ability to fight. ”

Her gaze was a little complicated, "Now that we've reached the point of breaking the boat, what can we do without taking risks?" ”

After she finished speaking, everyone in the tent fell silent, their current situation is indeed precarious, even if they don't do anything, they are destined to not escape, it is better to risk a battle, and still have some life.

Of course, if they don't go to Shacheng and find a place to hide in Fengyuan, it's not impossible, but with Feng Lie's posture now, there is a great chance that Tang Xi will not give up, if they don't show up for a long time, she suspects that Feng Lie will even take the initiative to launch a war against Beiyang, and then her situation will be even more embarrassing, holding Tang Xi's trump card in her hand but not getting half of the effect, and Beiyang will hate her to the bone, she can't go back to Beiyang, and the things she wants will be even more lost.

So in today's situation, no matter what she says, she has to fight once, and if she wins, everyone is happy; If you lose, you will never recover.

After that, the team was broken up and divided into different teams to enter the city in turn, of course, the time could not be too dense, so the team composed of Tang Xi and the other two men entered the city the next morning, and Li Linglong and Fu Jinglan were one step earlier than them.

Of course, considering that Feng Lie was very likely to have arrived in Shacheng, they didn't dare to take risks, so they dressed Tang Xi up again, and repeatedly told her that she was not allowed to speak casually, and when she really needed to speak, her voice should be lowered.

Tang Xi knew that she was guarding against Feng Lie, and the fact that she pretended to have amnesia had already begun to work, and at the last moment, Li Linglong was likely to let her go directly in order to ensure her safety, so she really didn't need to risk anger, so she agreed very obediently.

Both of them pretended to be elderly women this time, with three family members by their side, and they passed the interrogation smoothly when they entered the city.

As Li Linglong said, Shacheng is on the border between Beiyang and Fengyuan, and it is impossible for these people with merit and ambition not to infiltrate their forces into Shacheng, so Li Linglong also has his own people here.

So after they entered the city, they all gathered in Li Linglong's courtyard here, there was a porcelain shop in front of it, and behind it was their own yard, the yard was not big or small, and they could barely accommodate dozens of people when they squeezed down.

And Ying Yi's side found the camp where the other party was stationed before not long after Tang Xi and the others left, and after carefully checking it back and forth, through the judgment of the number of people and some life information left behind, he felt that it was very likely to be Li Linglong's team, but unfortunately it was still a step too late.

However, it can also be judged from this that the other party is likely to have entered the city.

Thinking like this, Ying Yi didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly returned to the city to inform Huo Jinyan.

Since Huo Jinyan and his entourage are not people who will be welcomed by Feng Yuan, they must also be low-key in Shacheng, in addition to shadowing and taking people out of the city to search, Huo Jinyan also began to pay attention to Shacheng after resting and recuperating his spirits, and then found that in Shacheng now, the guard is indeed a little too strict, the streets and alleys are full of murderous atmosphere, and most of the pedestrians on the streets in the past are less than half, and there is a posture of mountain rain coming and winding all over the building.

In addition, Huo Jinyan also noticed that the guardrails of the General's Mansion seemed to be several times more than usual, and it stands to reason that if you want to find someone, the General's Mansion really doesn't need to send so many people, and now it can only mean that there are extremely important people in the General's Mansion who need to be protected.

It was a little intriguing to think about it like this, he remembered that a few days ago, there seemed to be a spy who said that Feng Lie was unwell and suspended for two months...... He originally thought that Feng Lie was worried about Tang Xi's safety, and he didn't have the heart or so much energy to focus on things in the court, so he stopped the early court for two months, but now it seems that ...... Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes, it seemed that Feng Lie, this kid, had paid a little more than he imagined, and he actually chased after Shacheng in person!

You must know what a dangerous move it is for the emperor of a country to secretly come to the place where the two countries meet, if the news leaks, it is likely to be assassinated by the enemy, I can't imagine that Feng Lie can do this for Tang Xi, so even Huo Jinyan seems to be unable to ignore him as before...... If it wasn't for the fact that Tang Xi couldn't have other feelings for him from the beginning, then Huo Jinyan would definitely regard him as the biggest rival in his life, and if it was easy, he would never mind solving him.

But now, he knew that Tang Xi only had a brother and sister before him, no matter how much he paid, he would never get what he wanted, so he faintly felt a little sympathy for him......

However, with Feng Lie personally in charge, Huo Jinyan was also much more relieved, at least in this way, he also felt that he had a greater chance of rescuing Tang Xi.

So when he got the notice from Keichi, he thought about it and said, "Let someone send the news to the General's Mansion." ”

Now that Shacheng is looking for people with such fanfare, it is not doubtful to find someone to offer the news and receive a reward, as long as the news is transmitted to Feng Lie, Feng Lie will definitely block Shacheng as soon as possible, so Li Linglong and others can't do it even if they want to go out again, catch turtles in the urn, everything is much simpler, under the double search of Feng Lie and him, Li Linglong and others must be found in less than two days after hiding.

On the second day after Li Linglong and the others entered the city, Shacheng was completely blocked, and at the same time, their mood also sank completely, and they understood that there was no way back now, and they had to fight a battle.

In this solemn atmosphere, Tang Xi was not alone to eat and sleep, of course, she was actually nervous, especially after thinking that Feng Lie was also in Shacheng, although Shacheng has been sealed now, but it is difficult to guarantee whether Beiyang will be willing to give up this great opportunity to kill Feng Lie, in case the other party grits his teeth and directly starts the war again? This is too dangerous for Feng Lie!

Of course, judging from the anxious state of Li Linglong and the others now, Beiyang doesn't seem to have such a plan, and all Tang Xi is not in a hurry to the point of risking escape.

Another day later, when Tang Xi was walking in the yard after breakfast, he happened to hear Li Linglong talking to others.

"What do you say? Are there other forces in Sand City looking for our whereabouts? Li Linglong frowned, seemingly puzzled.

"Yes, I also accidentally bumped into it when I went out to buy something, the other party was not wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, and he acted in concealment, so it shouldn't be Feng Yuan's person." The spy replied earnestly, paused and said, "Princess, will this be ...... Is it the power that the prince left in Shacheng? ”

Li Linglong shook his head with a solemn face, "It's unlikely, with Li Feng's personality, he will definitely assassinate Feng Lie first, how can he risk exposing his whereabouts to find out our whereabouts?" ”

"Who could that be?" When the man heard this, his eyes became more and more confused.

"Perhaps...... It is not necessarily the power of the great cadres. "Perhaps, Tang Xi is indeed very important in the eyes of Daqian, so they can't bear to come to save people? In addition to this possibility, Li Linglong really can't think of any other answer, after all, the one who is willing to wade into this troubled water at this time must be a big force, or a big force that takes Tang Xi very seriously.

"In short, the other party is friend or foe, just avoid the other party." After speaking, Li Linglong asked again, "Have all the forces in the city been contacted?" ”

"Back to the princess, everything is almost ready, when are we going to do it?"

Li Linglong's eyes narrowed, and the sense of urgency in her heart became more and more serious, so she finally decided, "Just tomorrow night." ”

Tang Xi hid aside and listened to Li Linglong's conversation, and then quietly retreated, and at the same time was surprised in her heart, there was still a force looking for her? What she can be sure of is that it will definitely not be a big cadre, for a big cadre, she is a chess piece, and it will not be important to this extent at all, not to mention that if it is a big cadre, she will definitely come directly and clearly, there is no need to hide.

So who could this person be? The answer seems to be on the horizon.

Tang Xi sighed, obviously he didn't want to cause trouble for others, but trouble came one after another, and now he still had to work hard again to save her, but I don't know if he also came over in person? Although he didn't know the answer, Tang Xi probably guessed that most of them came over in person.

She smiled bitterly, those people who followed Huo Jinyan in South Vietnam probably hated her to death, but when they were extremely important, she repeatedly affected Huo Jinyan, which should have caused them a lot of trouble, right?

But fortunately, Li Linglong will be ready to act tomorrow, everything will have a result, whether it is dead or alive, at least she will not be tired of others to embarrass her.

Just thinking about it, they didn't know where they came from, "Where have you been, county lord?" It's hard for me to find. ”

Although they complained, but there was no anxiety in their eyes, Tang Xi saw it in his eyes, and his heart was much more at ease, it seemed that her amnesia had fully taken effect, and they had already acquiesced in her loss of memory, so the care of her had been loosened a lot, if it was before, where could she have the opportunity to wander around by herself?

She smiled softly, "I'm just taking a walk in the yard, and I eat a little bit at night." ”

They didn't say anything when they heard this, they just spoke, "The princess has already ordered it just now, and we will act tomorrow night, you must be obedient and don't make trouble for the princess, you know?" After a pause, he said, "If there is really no other way to assassinate Feng Lie at that time, you can only rely on you, the county lord." ”

Tang Xi nodded, "I know, you can rest assured." ”

The next morning, the people were assembled, and then they approached the city gate in several ways.

In order to avoid the officers and soldiers, they were in the most remote area of Shacheng, a little far from the city gate, and now in order to facilitate their movements, they divided into several teams and went to the city gate, where there was also a shop by Li Linglong, and they decided to stay there until the evening, and then move.

This way over, it seems to be very smooth, but in fact, he has been targeted by Huo Jinyan in the dark, he stared at the slightly bloated back, squinted his eyes and said, "Shadow One, send someone to follow, don't startle the snake." ”

Ying Yi was slightly stunned, followed Huo Jinyan's gaze, and saw the bloated back of a woman and the old mother beside her, frowned and said, "Are you sure it's Miss Tang?" ”

"I'm sure." No matter how much he changed her appearance, he could see her at a glance, not by eyes, but by feeling.
