Although the sudden arrow did not hit the county lord of Huairou, she was startled, this arrow feather was too close to her, if it deviated a little, it could kill her. The county lord of Huairou raised his head, only to see a knight in front of him stretching his bow and arrows.

This man was dressed in leather armor, he looked like a soldier in the army, his index finger was full of calluses, I don't know how many arrow feathers he shot, the man saw the lord of Huairou County, still took the arrow, shot out from a distance. The county lord of Huairou was stunned, she couldn't figure it out, that person obviously saw herself, and actually shot an arrow?

The little white rabbit in his hand had already come out of his hand and jumped away with difficulty, leaving the county lord of Huairou looking at the front with a dull face, the arrows were shining, breaking through the wind, and he was getting closer and closer to the county lord of Huairou. Suddenly, the county lord of Huairou reacted and screamed, but she trembled in both strands and couldn't dodge it for a while.

The barb on the arrow cluster can already be clearly seen, if it is shot, even if it does not die, a piece of meat will be lost, the county lord of Huairou closed his eyes, his body trembled slightly, and he was already extremely scared. However, after waiting for a while, the expected arrow feather did not hit her. Lord Huairou opened his eyes in confusion.

Ahead, Yang Lian was holding a long knife in his hand, and there was a broken arrow on the ground, it was he who appeared in time and split the arrow feather in half, and the county lord of Huairou breathed a sigh of relief, and it was Yang Lian who saved her.

Yang Lian, who was riding on a war horse, narrowed his eyes, even if that person didn't know the county lord of Huairou, it was certain that he couldn't see the county lord of Huairou! And when he saw it, this person still shot arrow feathers, if he didn't want to deliberately kill the county lord of Huairou, then he was a ruthless murderer.

"You are here, be careful, don't go!" Yang Lian commanded, and as he spoke, he rode his horse and ran towards the man.

The man was also taken aback, he didn't expect Yang Lian to suddenly appear, so that his plan to kill the county lord of Huairou failed, seeing Yang Lian rushing towards him, the man hesitated slightly, and finally rushed forward, if he could kill Yang Lian, it would be excellent.

The crisp sound of horses' hooves sounded, and both of them charged towards each other, Yang Lian clenched the long knife, and slashed down the two arrow feathers shot by the man in a row, the man was a little surprised that Yang Lian's knife skills and strength were surprisingly powerful, at this time the distance was already close, and the power of the arrow was not great, so he immediately pulled out the spear behind him.

"Kill!" The two men intersected with each other, making a soft sound. The long knife in Yang Lian's hand slashed at the body of the man's spear, and a crack was cut.

The man was taken aback, he didn't expect Yang Lian's long knife to be so sharp, and he was nervous in his heart, and the spear was broken into two. The man realized how powerful Yang Lian was, and ran forward with the horse in front of him, with the county lord of Huairou in front. She's a powerless woman, and if you can kill her, it's best.

Yang Lian was surprised when he saw him hurrying towards the rear, and hurriedly turned his horse's head and chased after him. Yang Lian's horse was fast, and he quickly chased after him, and the man was taken aback, and turned around with an arrow. Yang Lian pushed away with a long knife and also saluted him with an arrow.

The two were fighting in front, and the county lord of Huairou was extremely nervous, very resentful of that person, and clenched his fists, hoping that Yang Lian could kill that person. Sure enough, Yang Lian lived up to expectations, fought with that person for more than 20 rounds, and slashed that person in the chest with a knife. The man fell to the ground on a slanted slope, his body trembling slightly.

Yang Lian did not let his guard down, looked at him coldly, and suddenly took off his bow and arrows, brushed two arrows, and shot the man's arm. The arrow feather sank into the ground, and even if the man tried to deceive, he couldn't. Yang Lian jumped off the war horse and walked to the side, fiddling with his body with a long knife.

The man's Adam's apple suddenly made a sound, Yang Lian was taken aback, this person was going to commit suicide. Hurriedly stepped forward and turned his body over, and after a closer look, it turned out that he had swallowed poison, which was very violent, and his body shook a few times in an instant, his face became extremely terrifying, and his eyes were bulging, which looked very scary.

"You can't die, who sent you!" Yang Lian stepped forward and grabbed the man's shirt and wanted to save him, but it was too late, the man's head tilted and he fell to the ground.

Still a step too late, Yang Lian sighed in his heart, and became more and more puzzled in his heart, why did this person kill the county lord? At this time, the county lord of Huairou came over and said from afar: "Yang Lian, are you okay?" ”

"Don't come here!" Yang Lian shouted. This person's death is very terrifying, and it has only been a moment now, and his face has become as black as ink, and he doesn't know what kind of poison is so powerful.

The county lord of Huairou thought that Yang Lian was injured, so he ran up very worriedly, and when he saw the man's face, his face turned white and he almost vomited.

"Looking back, I'm fine." Yang Lian gave the order briefly.

The county lord of Huairou hurriedly turned his head and no longer looked at Yang Lian.

Yang Lian took a deep breath, and when he looked closely, the skin on the man's neck also turned black, and he didn't know if it was the poison of the cobra. Yang Lian looked down again, and suddenly his heart moved, and he tore the person's leather armor apart.

When the man's chest and arms were exposed, Yang Lian couldn't help but be stunned, on the man's chest, a lifelike tiger claw was carved, which was almost the same as the mark on the Taihu Lake water thief at the beginning! This is definitely not a coincidence, Yang Lian thought in his heart, and tore the leather armor again, looking at it carefully.

The people of Suzhou rumored that the Taihu Lake water thieves were an evil force supported by the Southern Tang Dynasty, so it seems to make some sense. Yang Lian took a closer look, this person was dressed in leather armor, and his bow and arrows were extremely sophisticated, judging from his equipment, although it was not a military system, it was not much worse than the military system.

"Don't hunt today, go!" Yang Lian made a decisive choice, this person ambushed here, it was definitely premeditated, no matter how important the hunt was, it was not more important than his life, Yang Lian would not take his own life, take the lives of others to easily send him to death.

After tying the man to the war horse, Yang Lian called the county lord of Huairou to prepare to go back.

The county lord of Huairou squatted on the ground and vomited. She is a delicate flower in the greenhouse, a noble woman who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers, and it is common sense that she can't bear it when she suddenly encounters this situation. Yang Lian didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he picked her up on the war horse, and led the little red horse back to the station.

The station is busy, many families are busy cooking, and some people have caught their prey, and are disemboweling, washing the prey. Seeing Yang Lian from afar, Lushang ran over and said, "General Yang." ”

Yang Lian looked solemn and said, "Quickly pack up your things and go!" ”

"Why?" Green's eyes widened.

"Don't talk so much." Yang Lian's eyes widened, quite scary.

Green clothes didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly ran back, at this time the face of the county lord of Huairou was a little better, Yang Lian took water for the county lord of Huairou to drink, and the warm water was in the stomach, and the face of the county lord of Huairou was much better.

"County Lord, I suspect that someone wants to deal with us, this person seems to have something to do with the Taihu Lake water thieves. You can't stay here for a long time, so let's go back to Jinling first. Yang Lian said in a low voice.

The county lord of Huairou relieved herself, and at this time she had no master, so she had to nod and say, "I listen to you." ”

Yang Lian handed her the water bladder, stood up, walked to Emperor Zhou E's side, and said in a low voice: "Gongzi Zhou, it was no accident that the county lord of Huairou was ambushed just now, and now it is very dangerous here, I and the county lord want to go back first, is Zhou Gongzi going back and staying here?" ”

When Emperor Zhou E heard that the county lord of Huairou was ambushed, his face suddenly changed, and he said with some fear: "I'll go with you!" ”

"Simply pack it up, and the tent will stay here to attract others." Yang Lian whispered.

Emperor Zhou E nodded, and said, "The sixth prince doesn't know where he went, do you want to inform him?" ”

"It's too late, the enemy is in the dark, I don't know when I will attack, take a step earlier, the less dangerous it will be. Where is the identity of the six princes, no one dares to do it. And he had several guards by his side. Yang Lian said.

Emperor Zhou E is right to think about it, who would dare to provoke the identity of the six princes? He immediately stood up, beckoned to the maid, and the group rode on horseback, carrying almost nothing, and hurried away.

It was noon when he returned to Jinling, and there was naturally no resistance to entering the city as the county lord of Huairou, even if it was so strange for Yang Lian to drag a person behind his war horse - but when Yang Lian took out the token of the command of the Shenwu Army at the same time, the soldiers guarding the gate were all stunned, and sent the county lord of Huairou and Yang Lian into the city with a smile.

Yang Lian first sent Emperor Zhou E back to the mansion by the way, but it happened that Zhou Zong was not there, otherwise he would have been trembling when he saw Yang Lian sent back to Emperor Zhou E. Yang Lian saw Emperor Zhou E enter the house, so he let go of his heart, and then took the county lord of Huairou back to the palace of Qi.

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, is teasing birds in the house, as a prince, Li Jingsui is not very interested, poetry and teasing birds are two of his favorites, which is also the way to deal with entertainment after government affairs, at this time Li Jingsui has just dealt with a few things, and is thinking about things while teasing birds.

In the chaos in the north, Liu Zhiyuan took the opportunity to enter the Central Plains, and the Khitan lord Yelude died, which made the situation in the north even more chaotic. At least judging from Liu Zhiyuan's career, he recovered most of the Central Plains without experiencing a major war, and although there are warlords in the rest of the place, most of these warlords have existed since the end of the Tang Dynasty, as long as they are not forced too much, they will not rebel.

"What a missed opportunity!" Li Jingsui thought in his heart, and felt that he was really short-sighted, if he insisted at the beginning and listened to Yang Lian's opinion, he might have recovered Luoyang, Bianliang and other places. Datang's prestige will surely be restored.

However, things have come to this point, Liu Zhiyuan has temporarily stabilized, fighting with the Han Dynasty is not a good strategy, and there is Wu Yueguo watching from the side, the Tang Dynasty must not suffer from the enemy, or wait and see the changes in the Central Plains, but now it seems that there is probably no such good opportunity anymore.

However, what made Li Jingsui slightly relieved was that Huaibei fell into chaos, and many people sent envoys with heavy gifts to express their willingness to join the Tang Dynasty. This shows that Datang still has a certain strength in the eyes of all forces. Li Jingsui considered whether to include Huaibei in the Tang Dynasty's sphere of influence. If Huaibei is owned, Huainan can be sheltered.

Huainan is stable, taxes are increasing, and the situation that the treasury is about to be depleted has been alleviated, and the Tang Dynasty court has more ample room for dispatch in all aspects.
