Yang was extremely aura, although he heard the emperor shouting behind him, and did not stop.

The old temple man and two small temple people were hurriedly closing the palace door, and when they saw Yang Ling, they knelt down with a "plop": "Your Royal Highness the princess, you will spare the villain! Last time, because of your departure from the palace, the villain was fined for half a year, and he was also beaten with a board on his buttocks, which hurt so much that the villain couldn't get off the ground for a few days." If you go out of the palace again today, I'm afraid of the villain's ass - oh, it's not just the ass, I'm afraid that even this head will be difficult to keep. Even if you barely keep it, you can only drink the northwest wind every day!"

The two small temple people also hurriedly knelt down: "I beg Her Royal Highness the princess to spare her life, please don't leave the palace!"

The people of the temple were in a hurry, and they didn't care about the humility and etiquette, and they said a bunch of "butts" and "heads" there, and Yang Ling became more and more annoyed, so he was willing to stop. He only turned around and shouted to the palace: "Today is Yang Ling's own exit from the palace, and it has nothing to do with them." They have fulfilled their duties, please don't embarrass them!"

I didn't go to break into the palace gate, I just jumped and went up the wall, and there was no figure after a few ups and downs, leaving only a few temples standing in place with staring eyes and not knowing what to do.

Yang Ling found a fast horse and hurried out of the capital of Cang Yu, but he was a little confused in his heart: "This Cang Yu is really disappointing!

If you want to go south to find abandonment, you will eventually feel that it is not appropriate. Abandoned in that rampant army, even if you see it, I am afraid that it will be very embarrassing.

A thought suddenly flashed through my mind: Why don't I go back to Guzang and see what has become of the royal court? Also, where has my cousin gone, but there is no news?

Make up your mind in your heart, hurry up, and embark on the road to the west.

After traveling for more than ten days, he gradually approached Guzang, and the scenery around showed a familiar appearance, and Yang Ling was very touched in his heart.

The battle ahead is imminent, and there are grain, grass, soldiers and horses everywhere, and the inventory of towns along the way is becoming more and more strict.

Fortunately, Yang Ling could speak Guzang Tu, changed into men's clothes, put on a cone hat, hunted some skins with a hunting bow, smeared his face and hands and disguised himself as an Orion, and evaded several times when he encountered interrogation.

On this day, Yang Ling came to a three-way intersection. A small shop at the intersection, where several customers are resting.

"Guest officer, what do you want? There is tea, wine and meat in the shop!" Xiao Er saw the guests coming, and hurriedly greeted them.

Yang Ling walked hungry and thirsty, ordered a pot of tea at random, asked for two cakes, and ate a plate of side dishes.

"Big brother, what is the idea of this dragon army not fighting, retreating and not retreating? It makes us have to take a detour from here every time, an extra two or three hundred miles, it's really annoying!"

A middle-aged businessman at the same table took a sip of wine: "Brother, you don't know anything." The one guarding Guzang is Yuwen Chai, who has tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, who is good at using bows and crossbows, known as the "Flying Feather Army", but it is not so easy to provoke. Long Fang Lao Shan Yu personally led the army to Guzang, but he did not want to fight him, but only to drag him down, so that his son could relax in the south. ”

"I see! Big brother, I heard that the war in the south is also very stalemate. ”

"Ha, Jian Heng is careless this time, and he boasted that he could win the dragon side in three or five days, but he knew that a dozen would be half a month, and the outcome has not been known so far. It is said that the Dragon Fang Kingdom has sent an army of mechanists, which is very powerful!"

"If you continue to fight like this, when will it be a head?"

The middle-aged man smiled and took another sip of wine: "I'm just afraid it's going to be soon!"

"Why?" the young businessman was puzzled.

"It's late autumn now, and snow will begin to fall in this Guzang territory in half a month. Once the heavy snow covers the mountain, it will be even more difficult for the dragon side's grain, grass and armaments to be transported over. Lao Shan Yu has fought all his life, and he must know this. The middle-aged merchant was a little proud, "When the time comes, I won't have to take a detour to the north, just go to Guzang!"

"Big brother Gao Jian! come, come, little brother respects big brother a cup ......"

There is indeed some truth in what this man said!, Yang Ling thought to himself.

I also heard that the war in the south was stalemate, and the Long Fang sergeant was brave, so he didn't feel a little more worried.

"Xiao Er, settle the account!" Yang Ling took out a silver ingot and handed it to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er saw that he was dressed as a hunter, but he made a generous move, and he was curious: "Where are you going?"

"Naturally, I went to Guzang. Yang Ling looked up at him, "I don't know what the little brother has to say?"

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! The guest officer went to Guzang to do business? ”

"Why?"

"Now that the big war is coming, I'm afraid that the guest officials won't be able to enter the city. ”

"It's okay, I don't go into the city, I just go to a relative's house near the royal city. ”

"Go to relatives, don't be too small, now they are all people who have fled from the royal city, and there are people in a radius of dozens of miles, all of them are empty, but I am afraid that you may not be able to find your relatives." ”

Yang Ling got up: "I was on the way, if I can't see him, just turn back, it's okay." But you don't have to look for the money, you should have made you a friend. Thank you, little brother!"

Xiao Er was happy in her heart, and when she saw that she insisted on going, she only said to her, "Guest officer, wait a moment." ”

He turned around and entered the room, took out a wooden card, and handed it to Yang Ling: "Guest officer, if there is any urgent matter that needs to enter the city, you are afraid that you will be able to use this thing." ”

Yang Ling took a look, and it turned out to be a waist card, with three words written on it: Gu Erkun, and there are several small holes.

Seeing that he was a little puzzled, Xiao Er hurriedly explained: "This waist card is a thing issued by the Guzang garrison to the people within a radius of 100 miles to mark their identity, and the three words on it are cheap names. As soon as the war began, it was difficult to get the ingredients, and there was no business. I'm just afraid that I will close this small shop in the next two days, and take my family to Uncle Cang's house. It's useless to hold this card, so it's better to give it to the guest officer. ”

"Oh!" Yang Ling was overjoyed, "Thank you so much, little brother!"

Xiao Er took out a bag of cooked meat and a few hard cakes, and stuffed them into her hands: "Within a radius of dozens of miles, there is no place to sell food." If you can't find that relative, use it to satisfy your hunger. ”

Yang Ling was very grateful and thanked him repeatedly.

After crossing the intersection, I went forward for less than half a day, and I saw the Guzang King City from afar. Yang Ling thought of his uncle, and his heart was inevitably a little desolate.

Huyan Yanya did not besiege the city, and the east and south gates of Wangcheng were opened every half hour, but they were all local residents who had fled outside.

Yang Ling lowered the brim of his hat and led his horse to the city gate.

"You want to enter the city?" the soldiers defending the city were a little strange, "what is the matter with entering the city?"

"My uncle has a disability in his leg, so I'm here to take him away. Yang Ling replied in the native language.

"Waist card!" the soldier saw that he spoke with an authentic accent, and was no longer embarrassed.

Yang Ling handed the card over, and the soldier took a book and compared the card upward.

Yang Ling glanced at it quietly and admired in his heart: The person who invented this waist card is really extremely smart.

It turns out that the first two small holes correspond to the numbers on the book, which are the book and page numbers. The soldier took out another book according to the number, compared it, nodded, and returned the waist card to Yang Ling.

"Get in quickly, get out quickly! We don't know how long this gate will open, and if there is a war, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out. ”

Yang Ling thanked the soldier and was about to enter the city, when he suddenly heard a soft shout: "Wait!"

"General!" the soldier saluted.

Yang Ling followed the voice, and a middle-aged man rode out of the city on a huge green horse. The man has phoenix eyes, straight eyebrows, wearing blue-purple armor, and his body is elegant, but he exudes a fierce aura like an arrow on the string.

"Bring it!" the general stretched out his hand in front of Yang Ling, his tone was very light, but it exuded a majesty that people could not refuse.

Yang Ling hesitated for a moment and handed over the waist card.

"Gurkun," the general stared at Yang Ling, "where do you live, and what do you do for a living?"

"The villain lives at the three-way intersection fifty miles east of the city, and lives on a small shop on weekdays. Yang Ling had already thought of these answers along the way.

"Haha, Gurkun, who do you see that is?" the general nodded, and suddenly pointed behind Yang Ling.

Yang Ling was shocked: Could it be that this general actually knew Gu Erkun, or had he met someone who was familiar with Gu Erkun?

Looking back in a hurry, where is there any figure?

But suddenly he felt that the top of his head was loose, the cone hat was gone, the turban was scattered, and the golden hair fell down.

The surrounding people all exclaimed, and more than a dozen soldiers had already surrounded them.

Yang Ling was so angry that his eyes were full of fire, and he only stared at him.

"Well, he was born rich and noble, but he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is good at using bows and arrows...... You have a daughter's breath all over your face, you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me. The general looked Yang Ling up and down, but he was not angry, "Tell me, who are you, why did you come to this Guzang King City?"

I've disguised myself layer by layer, this person can see so many things at a glance? Yang Ling was surprised in his heart.

But she never admits defeat by nature, and only tilts her head: "This Guzang Wangcheng is my home, I can come if I want to, can you manage it?"

"Since it is your family, you are here openly, why do you want to disguise yourself and steal this waist card to cover people's eyes?" The general still spoke softly, "I am Cangyu Wenchai, the commander of the Guzang garrison." The war is imminent, and the lives of the soldiers and civilians of a city are all on my shoulders, do you think I should take care of it?"

The general spoke slowly and logically, but there was no way to refute it, and Yang Ling couldn't help but think of the waist card again: this man is thoughtful and eyesighted, and that thing must have been invented by this man.

"Newspaper-" A cloud of yellow dust rolled on the ground, and a fast horse rode in the dust. Before he could reach him, the rider rolled off his saddle and fell to the ground. Quickly a soldier went over and helped him over.

"General Yuwen, the national capital, eight hundred miles in an emergency!" the rider was covered in dust, his lips cracked, and he took out a letter from his bosom tremblingly.

Yuwen chased down the horse and took it with both hands, only to see a few lines, and his face changed greatly.

Turning over his horse, he turned around and galloped into the city: "Urgently tell the soldiers and civilians in the city: The gate curfew will be opened for the last time today, and it will no longer be open after that! From now on, the whole city of Guzang will enter the state of the highest level of imminent battle, ready for the enemy army to attack the city at any time!"

After galloping two steps, he suddenly grabbed the reins and looked back at Yang Ling: "Temporarily detain her, take care of her, and wait for General Ben to interrogate her carefully in the future." ”

"Drive-" sounded, and the dust was gone.
