Qin Qiong's successful sneak attack on Jieli in the Hunhe River made the Turks lose countless supplies in one fell swoop, but this was just the beginning, in the next period of time, Qin Qiong led this elite cavalry like a pack of wolves, staring at Jieli to death, often taking advantage of the Turks to relax and bite a few bites, which also made Jieli dare not divide the troops at all, let alone relax, and retreated all the way to the direction of Yinshan.

In the rear of Dingxiang City, Zhao Deyan temporarily took over the affairs here, Li Jing has also led the army to leave, I heard that he is going to catch up with Qin Qiong and Li Ji's army, and then start a decisive battle against the Turks, but Zhao Deyan always felt that Li Jing was afraid that the credit would be robbed by Qin Qiong and Li Ji, so he hurried over.

There are tens of thousands of former Sui remnants in Dingxiang City who need to be managed, and Zhao Deyan is only temporarily taking over, and after Li Xiu sends officials in the rear, he can go back to Chang'an to return to Li Shimin, but during this time he is full of sadness, because the Yang family, who should have come back a long time ago, has not had any news, and he has not even seen any guards who protect her, which makes Zhao Deyan also very worried about her safety.

Although there is a huge age difference between Zhao Deyan and Yang, and it was only a political marriage at the beginning, after a period of getting along, Zhao Deyan is also very satisfied with Yang's gentle woman, and he has experienced the pain of family ruin, and he cherishes his family very much, but he didn't expect that seeing that he was about to succeed, Yang had an accident on the road, which made him also unable to sleep and couldn't sleep all night.

Empress Xiao also saw the worry in Zhao Deyan's heart, and also guessed that her granddaughter might encounter an accident, but she was a smart woman, and she only hinted a few times in her words, and even strictly forbade Yang Zhengdao to ask about the whereabouts of the Yang family, so as not to make Zhao Deyan sad.

Early this morning, Zhao Deyan patrolled the security in Dingxiang City, when Li Jing left, he left five hundred defenders, plus Empress Xiao's original five hundred guards, it was barely a thousand defenders, but the food in the city was still very short, when it was occupied by the Turks before, the city was about to starve to death, fortunately, Zhao Deyan immediately gathered all the food after taking over the affairs of the city, and then distributed it to the people in the city to tide over the difficulties, but these grains did not last long, Fortunately, Li Xiu in the rear had already sent someone to inform him, saying that a batch of grain and grass had been prepared, and it was estimated that it would be delivered today.

Thinking of Li Xiu, Zhao Deyan's heart is also full of gratitude, it can be said that in his life, Li Xiu is the biggest noble person in his life, if there was no Li Xiu's recommendation, he would not have had the opportunity to get close to Jieli, let alone have the opportunity to avenge his family, now the Turks have shown signs of annihilation, which is also inseparable from him, when he thinks of these, Zhao Deyan has an indescribable happiness in his heart.

At this moment, suddenly a guard rushed to report that there was a group of people from outside the city, which made Zhao Deyan immediately climb to the top of the city, and at a glance he saw that the leader was a young man with a high spirit, it was Li Xiu, who had not seen him for many years, and behind him, there were teams of carriages, which knew that they must be transporting various materials without asking.

Seeing that Li Xiu actually came in person, Zhao Deyan couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and hurriedly went down to the city at the moment, and then opened the city gate in person to welcome him out. When Li Xiu saw Zhao Deyan, he couldn't help jumping off the horse and laughing: "Brother Zhao has been going through a long time, don't come unharmed?" ”

"Pony! The villain ...... "Facing Li Xiu, Zhao Deyan only felt extremely excited, and he had already become a little whimpering as soon as he said a word, if he said that the person who could understand him best in the world, I am afraid that only Li Xiu in front of him would be."

"Brother Zhao, everything is over, and I have a surprise for you!" Li Xiu also stepped forward to support Zhao Deyan at this time, and then said to him again with a mysterious face.

"Surprise?" Zhao Deyan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then raised his head and looked at him puzzled.

At this time, I saw Li Xiu smile, and then pointed behind him, and then Zhao Deyan realized that Li Xiu was followed by a carriage, not the kind of carriage that pulls goods, but with a carriage, and it is very gorgeous, and it is very comfortable at a glance, and it can only be used to carry people.

Just when Zhao Deyan was puzzled, he suddenly saw the carriage door being opened, and then a familiar figure walked out of the carriage, and when he saw Zhao Deyan, this person also jumped out of the carriage in surprise and rushed over and shouted: "Husband, I finally saw you!" ”

"Ping...... Ping Niang? You...... How did you come with the ponies? Zhao Deyan's eyes widened in shock when he saw Yang, and he even asked in disbelief, Yang had disappeared for several days, and he had been worried about her safety, but he never expected that she would come to Dingxiang with Li Xiu, which was unbelievable.

"Haha~, the reunion of your husband and wife is naturally a gratifying thing, but we have been on the road for a long time, so let's go into the city and talk again!" At this time, Li Xiu interrupted the joy of Zhao Deyan and his wife when they reunited, after all, it was not a way for them to always block the city gate, and the brothers in the escort team behind were also waiting to enter the city to rest.

Hearing Li Xiu say this, Zhao Deyan came to his senses, and he didn't have time to ask about Yang's experience in the past few days, so he hurriedly invited Li Xiu into the city, and at the same time asked people to arrange to receive these materials, a small part of these materials were used by the people in Xiangcheng, and the other large part was to be sent to the front line to support Li Jing's army.

"Pony, why are you here yourself?" After arranging the above things, Zhao Deyan remembered to ask this question, after all, things like escorting materials really couldn't make Li Xiu go away in person.

"Actually, it's nothing, we received a battle report before, General Qin Qiongqin has defeated the Turks in the Hunhe River, so that the Turks have lost a lot of supplies, and now the Turks are only caring about fleeing all the way, and our army is also pursuing all the way, Dingxiang is closer to the front line, and it is also convenient for the dispatch of materials, plus I heard that you are also in Dingxiang, so I decided to come here to have a look, and by the way, arrange someone to send Empress Xiao and others to Chang'an!" Li Xiu replied with a smile at this time.

"I see, but Your Majesty really won't embarrass Empress Xiao and King Sui?" Hearing Li Xiu's words mention Empress Xiao, Zhao Deyan couldn't help but ask with concern, although Li Xiu had assured him of this matter before, he was still a little uneasy.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty is also very happy to know that Empress Xiao and the others have surrendered, so after Empress Xiao and the others return to Chang'an, they will definitely be properly settled!" Li Xiu reassured at this time.

Hearing Li Xiu's words, Zhao Deyan finally put his mind at ease, and then he finally remembered the matter of the Yang family again, and asked again: "Don Ma, how did you meet my wife and them?" ”
