The return of Duan Lang and others suddenly made Yushanguan lively. Especially He Lianjia, waiting for Shangguan Xuanwu's return to the city. Yushanguan has been temporarily taken over by Liu Shenyu, and he did not return to Beijing to report on his work, so he could only wait for the arrangement after returning to Beijing with Qincha. However, He Lianjia felt that he had bet on this treasure correctly, and he should be able to get a good reward after returning to Beijing.

Yushan Guanfu is inside, and the New Year is as lively as the New Year. Fang Yan pestered Duan Lang to ask this and that, and learned that Tangtai Mingyue was not married to the prince of the Moro Kingdom, and Fang Yan was also happy for her. However, Zhang Ruming and Li Jianshan looked at Duan Lang with a thief, and felt that this guy was a little too much for Fang Yan. But Duan Lang didn't know that they didn't dare to tell Fang Yan a story.

That night, Liu Shenyu held a banquet to wash the dust for Shangguan Xuanwu and others. Don't look at the unpleasant quarrel between the two, as the temporary boss of Yushan Pass, Liu Shenyu must pretend to be enthusiastic. However, Fang Yan found that Duan Lang and Li Jianshan had disappeared. Whether it was Liu Xusheng or Cui Zhiliang, they didn't see Duan Lang's whereabouts. At this time, Duan Lang and Li Jianshan came to the secret office of the Yushan Pass Investigation and Defense Division.

Under the careful care of the secret beast lang, Da Fei's injuries were basically healed. Duan Lang stroked Da Fei's smooth feathers and asked softly.

"Da Fei, can you soar in the sky now?"

Da Fei whispered happily twice, responding to Duan Lang's question. Duan Lang happily carried Da Fei to the courtyard, and he could only rest assured when he watched Da Fei leave from here. Otherwise, Li Jianshan's ghost head and toad-eyed guy may not know what to do to Da Fei.

Li Jianshan quietly called the beast Langzhong over and asked softly, "How is it, is there any result?" ”

"Adults, small ones have several harrier eagles to accompany this falcon. But they are not all the way, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to match. ”

Li Jianshan sighed, "Alas~, when will Lao Tzu have such a falcon." Forget it, let's take the time to ask Duan Lang to see if I can let Da Fei steal a little falcon back. ”

Da Fei's recovery made Duan Lang feel very good, and Li Jianshan didn't dare to delay time, so he hurriedly dragged Duan Lang back to the mansion for the banquet. Anyway, he is still a member of the Investigation Division, and he has to give Liu Shenyu a face.

As soon as the two returned to the mansion, Fang Yan suddenly pulled Duan Lang and asked angrily, "Sneaky, why did you go?" ”

"What's sneaky, I'm going to see Da Fei." Duan Lang said with a smile.

Before leaving, Duan Lang told Fang Yan about Da Fei's injury, but he didn't say that Da Fei was treating his injuries in Miya. After all, it was the territory of the Investigation Division, and it was inconvenient for Duan Lang to let Fang Yan go over.

"Ah, how is Da Fei now?" When Fang Yan heard that she was going to see Da Fei, she also asked worriedly.

"The injury is healed, I guess now~ I have to find a place to live." Duan Lang pointed to the sky.

As soon as she heard that Da Fei was fine, Fang Yan was also happy for it. The two of them came to the banquet, and Zhang Ruming was like a storyteller, boasting about how heroic he was in Beiming. Duan Lang didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he came to the black armor guard, and began to push and change cups with his brothers, and drank freely.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Liu Shenyu picked up the wine glass, "Lord Shangguan, this glass of wine I Liu Shenyu respects all the brothers in your Heavenly Master Palace." Under your insistence, Yushan Pass has not become a place of war, and such a great achievement should be celebrated with this cup. ”

Zhang Ruming also stood up, "Okay, Lord Ben is also very pleased that the Heavenly Master Hall can have such heroic guards." Come, dry this glass. ”

Duan Lang led the black-armored guards to stand up, and all the people at the tables in the entire mansion compound looked at them. They were able to establish a real peace with the Northern Ming Dynasty, and they also lost dozens of brothers for this. Although the number of this black-armored guard is small, the fearlessness of waiting for the city gate is very admirable.

The reception feast was very happy, and it was over when it was nearing the end of the day. He Lianjia did not leave, and Liu Shenyu did not return to the secret office. In the hall of the government council, the core figures of Yushanguan gathered together.

Liu Shenyu looked at Zhang Ruming, "Lord Shangguan, Your Majesty has a decree to let you return to Beijing immediately." It seems that Your Majesty really misses your lordship. Liu Shenyu smiled falsely.

"Admiral Liu, since Your Majesty has a will, then we will leave immediately tomorrow morning. I would like to ask, what is the situation on the side of the northern camp? Lao Tzu has lost dozens of brothers here, so it can't be just counted. Zhang Ruming asked.

"The Northern Battalion? Hehe, Wei Ran has been dismissed. As an important minister of the first emperor, His Majesty gave him a good place to retire. At present, the commander of the battalion is General Ma Ruzheng, who has taken over the battalion completely. Liu Shenyu said.

"What about Yushanguan? How did Lao He arrange it. Zhang Ruming then asked.

Liu Shenyu smiled, He Lianjia hurriedly stood up, arched his hand and said, "Thank you Lord Qincha for your concern, this time Xia Guan will return to Beijing with your lordship." As for how to arrange it, we can only wait for news from the Ministry of Officials. ”

"Okay, Lao He, don't worry, after returning to Beijing, I will personally go to Your Majesty to help you ask for credit. We can be regarded as friends of life and death, and we will all be a family in the future. ”

When He Lianjia heard this, he hurriedly bowed excitedly, "Thank you Lord Qincha for your kindness, and I have to ask your Excellency to take care of me in the future." ”

Duan Lang thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Lord He, since you are leaving Yushan Pass, can I ask you for someone before leaving?" ”

"Someone?" Not only He Lianjia, but Zhang Ruming was also stunned.

"It's Zhang Qifeng, the head of your city gate camp. The courage of this person to stand up in times of crisis is very commendable. It's a pity that he stays here. It just so happens that our Black Guards are also going to replenish our troops, and I want to bring him to the Black Guards. Of course, I asked if Mr. Qian was willing to do this. ”

"Haha, of course he does. However, this matter has to be agreed by Admiral Liu, and now I have no right to give it to you. He Lianjia said happily.

Duan Lang looked at Liu Shenyu, clasped his fists and said, "I don't know if Lord Liu, can you give this person to me Black Armor." ”

Liu Shenyu smiled heartily, "Since Commander Duan has taken a fancy to it, of course Liu will not stop it." ”

"Okay, I'll immediately order someone to inform General Zhang that he will go to Kyoto with us tomorrow."

Last time he was above the city gate, Duan Lang had been worried about this person. In any case, this Qian always was able to stand up and live and die with the Black Armor Guard brothers at the critical moment when the firearms battalion was shooting, and this favor was worthy of Duan Lang's help. Otherwise, as soon as He Lianjia leaves, I am afraid that this person will be buried in the small city of Yushan Pass for the rest of his life.

Since His Majesty has a will, Zhang Ruming and the others do not dare to delay. Early the next morning, the black armor guards assembled their teams and left Yushan Pass with high momentum under the farewell of the officials and people of the city.

Fang Yan didn't take a car, and walked side by side with Duan Lang. It is Li Jianshan, since his leg injury, it seems that riding in the same car with Zhang Ruming has become his unique treatment. Now the leg injury has long been healed, and this guy is still stuck in the car. Zhang Ruming also wished that someone would talk to him, but the two smelled the same.

"Jianshan, you said that if Duan Lang told Miss Fang the truth, would Fang Yan turn his face with him?" Zhang Ruming asked while knocking on the nuts.

"What's this, it's a big deal to marry together."

"Then who is the wife and who is the concubine?"

"Of course Miss Fang is a concubine, but Mingyue is a princess."

"Hmph, if Miss Fang becomes a concubine, believe it or not, her father can kill Duan Lang."

Li Jianshan nodded, "That's right, Fang Jiye is not an ordinary person after all. Alas, poor Brother Duan, I'm going to be trapped by love now. ”

The two of them were chatting about Duan Lang in the car, and Duan Lang at this time really didn't know how to tell Fang Yan about him and Tangtai Mingyue. Before Beiming came back, Han Feng also specially explained to Duan Lang that for the sake of the great enmity of the Duan family, he must not give up this Fang girl. Only with the support of the western battalion can Duan Lang have the capital to confront. Otherwise, as soon as Emperor Yuning fell, maybe the Heavenly Master Hall would be eradicated at any time.

Fang Yan looked at Duan Lang, the two walked side by side for a long time, but Duan Lang seemed to be preoccupied, and there was not much communication between the two of them.

"Brother Duan, do you have something on your mind?" Fang Yan couldn't help but ask.

Duan Lang hesitated for a moment and said, "Fang Yan, this time I went to Beiming, I ~ agreed to someone." ”

"Promise someone? What do you mean? Fang Yan looked at Duan Lang suspiciously.

Duan Lang was ruthless, he didn't want to deceive Fang Yan, he always regarded Fang Yan as his best friend in Duan Lang's heart, and even like his sister. Besides, hiding it like this, Duan Lang felt very sorry for Tangtai Mingyue.

"Fang Yan, I promised Tai Mingyue, if ~ I can achieve great things in the future, I will go to Beiming to marry her and come back as a wife."

Fang Yan suddenly reined in the war horse, "What, you want to marry Mingyue of Tantai?" ”

Duan Lang nodded awkwardly, "Well, I promised her, unless I die, I will definitely go to Beiming to propose marriage." ”

Fang Yan looked at Duan Lang in shock, and the expression on her face froze suddenly. Fang Yan wanted to pretend that she didn't care, and even wanted to squeeze out a smile. However, she couldn't. This news was too sudden for Fang Yan.

"Brother Duan, then~ then bless you." Fang Yanqiang endured a sadness and pretended to be free and easy and said.

"Fang Yan, thank you. You're my most trusted friend, so I'm going to tell you about it. Duan Lang looked at Fang Yan sincerely, no matter whether Fang Yan would complain about him or not, after saying it, Duan Lang seemed to have a big stone in his heart.

Fang Yan smiled awkwardly, "Brother Duan, thank you for treating me as your most trusted friend." Let's go, let's not go, we both stopped. ”

Fang Yan said, and rushed forward with a dozen horsewhips. Fang Yan, who was running, unconsciously shed tears on her face. She wanted to cry, she wanted to find a place where no one was around.

The team continued to march, but Zhang Ruming and Li Jianshan found that Fang Yan was no longer walking side by side with Duan Lang, but walked among the black armor guards, and was 'happy' with everyone.

That night, the people set up camp on the edge of a small town. Early the next morning, Liu Xusheng sorted out the team and found that Fang Yan had lost her trace in the entire camp. In Fang Yan's tent, she found a letter she left for Duan Lang.

After reading the letter, Duan Lang let out a melancholy sigh. Duan Lang burned the letter and immediately ordered the black armor guard to set off. No matter how Zhang Ruming asked, Duan Lang just didn't say the content of the letter. Fang Yan revealed her heart in the letter, but this blow was indeed a bit big for Fang Yan. But Fang Yan didn't blame Duan Lang, she just told him that she needed to calm down.

Fang Yan went to the western camp alone, and Duan Lang was also helpless, but he couldn't leave the team to chase Fang Yan. Duan Lang felt that it was better to leave temporarily, and when he returned to Kyoto, Duan Lang would take the opportunity to go to the western camp. By that time, perhaps Fang Yan had calmed down. If Fang Yan's matter is not resolved, it is also a burden in Duan Lang's heart.

The team continued to move forward, this time Zhang Ruming did not delay on the road, and quickly traveled day and night, and came to Kyoto in less than ten days.

The news of the return of the Heavenly Survey Supervisor Xuanwu to Beijing immediately made the whole Kyoto lively. Not only the senior members of the DPRK and the Central Committee, but also the three princes are very concerned. The team of Qincha was mighty, Shangguan Xuanwu stood on top of the chariot in a flamboyant manner, and the team circled the city for a week, and then returned to the Heavenly Master Palace.

As soon as he entered the Heavenly Master Palace, Zhang Ruming immediately ordered someone to close the door, he knew that someone would soon come to invite him into the mansion. Sure enough, the major mansions in the capital issued invitations one after another, and the Heavenly Master Hall was overcrowded. Surprisingly, this Lord of the Sky Survey not only refused all the banquets of the dignitaries, but even the invitations of the three princes' mansions were turned away.

In the Heavenly Master Palace, Duan Lang looked at Zhang Qifeng and said to the Black Armor Guards, "Brothers, in the battle of Yushan Pass, this Chief Zhang is on our side regardless of life and death. Now, he's one of our Black Guards. I hope you old fritters, don't bully people who come from local city defense. Liu Xusheng, Cui Zhiliang, you two don't have any opinions, right? ”

Liu Xusheng said with a smile, "No opinion, Mr. Zhang is righteous, we accept it." ”、

"Lao Zhang, we will be a family in the future." Cui Zhiliang also said.

The Black Armor Guard brothers burst into laughter, they were very familiar with Zhang Qifeng along the way, and someone shouted loudly.

"Lord Commander, the newcomers are in the team, then your treat will be fine."

Duan Lang smiled, "Okay, I'll please." ”

In the midst of cheers, Duan Lang looked at Zhang Qifeng and said, "Mr. Zhang, you come to me to be the boss, you won't feel at a loss, right?" ”

"Lord Commander, look at what you say. My general soldier is not the general soldier of the big battalion, but the small general soldier of the city gate battalion. ”

"Actually, no matter what, everyone here is a brother, including our adult Shangguan Xuanwu. Therefore, it doesn't matter the size of the official position, the key is that everyone can hold together. Duan Lang said frankly.

Feeling the family-like atmosphere of the Heavenly Master Palace, Zhang Qifeng really didn't expect that there would be such a yamen in Daxia. He has been in Yushanguan for so many years, and he never dared to think that he would one day be able to enter Kyoto as an errand boy. Not to mention giving him a boss, that is, being able to be included in the black armor guard of the forbidden army, which made Zhang Qifeng feel glorious and proud of his ancestors.

That night, Zhang Ruming ordered people to set up the wine and food, He Lianjia and Li Jianshan lived in the Heavenly Master Palace, and everyone returned safely and triumphantly, so they had to celebrate. Just when Zhang Ruming finished changing his clothes and turned around and was about to walk out of the bedroom, he suddenly shuddered. He spotted a masked man standing behind him at some point.

"Ah~, there are assassins!" Zhang Ruming was so frightened that he sat on the ground.

With this shout, the entire Heavenly Master Hall was like a nest. Duan Lang and Li Jianshan rushed in almost at the same time, and saw a masked man looking at Zhang Ruming with his hands behind his back.

When Li Jianshan saw this masked man, he was shocked, and hurriedly shouted, "Stop, that's Lord Huai~!" ”

The masked man stood motionless, Duan Lang's knife was still an inch above his head, and he finally stopped the attack in time.

The masked old man turned around and looked at Duan Lang with a pair of sharp eyes. These eyes were plain, but Duan Lang felt that a cold air came out of his heart.
