Hearing Gao Wei and Gao Anaqi's angry words, Feng Xiaolian watched coldly and said nothing, but in the depths of her eyes, a trace of ridicule and disappointment slipped through. She had already seen Gao Wei's absurdity, but she never thought that Gao Wei would say such words: she would rather give Jinyang City to Yuwen Yong.

The king of a country can be so cowardly and narrow-minded. I'd rather let the great country fall into the hands of the enemy than get it from my brother, and there are countless royal relatives who have died in his hands over the years, and there are countless ministers and generals who have died unjustly.

It is ridiculous that Mu Tiva, one of the three nobles whom Gao Wei has been very favored by for so many years, abandoned him as soon as he left Jinyang City and surrendered to the Zhou army. If it weren't for Gao Wei and the others who were familiar with the path, and they were traveling day and night, all the way non-stop, I am afraid that they would have been captured by Yuwen Yong and returned to the camp. And Hu Luguang and others, who he regarded as a thorn in his side, did not show betrayal until they died.

Although his status is extremely lofty, what he does is so small that it is disgusting and shameless, and there is no trace of the demeanor and majesty of an emperor at all.

Why haven't you realized your mistake until now, and haven't changed in the slightest? Even if you wake up, we still have a way to make a comeback!

Quietly looking at Gao Wei, who was roaring angrily, Feng Xiaolian's heart was bitter, and he secretly shouted. When she thought of the outcome she was about to face, she couldn't help but shudder and was very confused.

"Your Majesty, it's not too early, let's go on our way! Gao Yanzong's name is not right, and he will not give up with His Majesty, and now we are weak, so we should return to Yecheng first and then slowly try to eliminate the chaotic party in one fell swoop! ”

Gao Anqiu and Gao Wei vented for a while, and the latter looked up at the sky, and then said.

"Whew-"

Gao Wei let out a breath of white air, looked at the sunset in the west, snorted coldly, and then said, "Go, go back to Yecheng!" Gao Yanzong, you wait, I must break your corpse into ten thousand pieces! ”

As soon as he thought that he had spent the rest of the month on the run like a lost dog, Gao Wei became angry, raised his foot and kicked a dead branch in front of him out of his heart, and after his heart was uncertain, he immediately turned over his horse and galloped away to the southeast.

Gao Anaqiu and Feng Xiaolian glanced at each other, and then got on their horses one after another, following Gao Wei's footsteps.

With Gao Wei, there were a total of forty or fifty Northern Qi officials, and there were two thousand guards, but now they are still following him, and there are less than a thousand people left who have not escaped alone. It is really sad and lamentable, to think that the king of a country should be reduced to such a desolate situation.

Gao Wei has always distrusted others, but now that Gao Yanzong has usurped the throne and the situation is delicate, he does not dare to be careless at all, lest he be taken by some people who are eager to make meritorious contributions to Gao Yanzong. Therefore, along the way, Gao Wei dressed up in disguise, trying to avoid the avenue city, and even if the supplies were mostly procured by the personal guards.

In October in the north, the weather is already very cold, especially at night, and the dripping water turns into ice, which is even more unbearable. In the face of such harsh conditions, Cushman & Wakefield had to continue on his journey, and these days he had to endure more hardships than in his entire life.

Of course, Cushman & Wakefield's hard work finally made him return to Yecheng three days later, although the whole person suffered a circle, and he couldn't afford to be sick in Yecheng, but as long as people lived, there was hope for everything.

……

The wind was cold, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, and the earth was shrouded in darkness. Although the situation has been turbulent and people are panicking in recent days, Yecheng is not on the front line after all, and it is much quieter than Jinyang, who is depressed and nervous. This is especially true on this cold night, when the empty streets are eerily quiet and eeri.

The majestic palace stands quietly in the center of Yecheng, like an old man who is about to die, with endless twilight and sadness all over his body. Although it is still so magnificent judging by the little fire that shoots from the palace building, its Chinese gloom is still impossible to hide.

At this moment, a thin black shadow suddenly came to the palace gate from the deep palace. The man was dressed in black, and he was covered with a wide cloak, making it impossible to see his face. The guard in charge stepped forward impatiently, and was about to scold the visitor to vent his frustration after being disturbed, but when he saw the golden token in the firelight, he was filled with excitement and swallowed the words that came to his mouth alive.

The golden token was carved with exquisite dragon patterns, and in the center were engraved four vigorous and powerful small letters: I am here.

"The little one has seen the adult, and the adult will forgive me for the offense!" The guard immediately fell to his knees and said in fear.

"Keep your mouth shut, or else—" The man in black's voice was a little hoarse, but the cold tone made the guard tremble, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said "Don't dare."

The man in black snorted coldly, and then tucked the token into his sleeve, and only then did the guard notice that the man in black's hands were so slender and slender, his fair skin glowing in the firelight, and his pink nails were trimmed just right.

This is a flawless hand that is as beautiful as a woman.

The guard guessed in his heart, but he just glanced at it and then urged his head down again, silently waiting for the man in black to leave the palace before slowly standing up, just looking at the figure that gradually walked into the dark void, his heart was full of surprise.

The man in black walked lightly and slowly, but not slowly, especially in this empty street, where she walked without making a sound.

Not long after, the man in black appeared in front of a remote courtyard in the northern city. Standing in front of the mansion, quietly staring at the confined, very ordinary door, the black-clothed man took a deep breath, stepped forward and knocked on the door gently.

Three long and two short, repeated this three times, the black-clothed man stopped his movements and stood quietly with his hands down.

There was silence in the courtyard, and there was no response, until about half a pillar of incense had passed, and the door of the confinement suddenly opened.

Behind the door came a man with a lantern in his hand, and by the flickering and dim candlelight, it could be seen that it was a middle-aged woman, with an ordinary appearance, dressed as an ordinary peasant woman. But if anyone really thinks that she is an ordinary peasant woman, it is a big mistake. Just look at her deep eyes and know that this person is extraordinary.

"The Young Sect Master has been waiting for a long time, please come in!" The middle-aged woman coldly glanced at the face of the man in black hidden under the cloak, and then said lightly, letting go of the body.

The man in black nodded slightly, and walked into the courtyard without speaking. Led by the middle-aged woman, the man in black soon came to a separate and secluded house. The lights were on in the room, and there was a beautiful silhouette on the window, as if she was writing something at the desk.

"Young Sect Master, the person you are waiting for is here!" The middle-aged woman walked to the door and said softly.

"Let her in, you go down and rest!" The silhouette on the window moved, and then a gentle voice came from the room, but the tone was a little cold, and it was even more revealing a faint majesty, which made people's hearts tense unconsciously.

"Yes!" The middle-aged woman respectfully agreed, and then made a gesture of invitation to the man in black.

The man in black nodded, then reached out and removed the hat from his head. Under the dim light, a coquettish face was suddenly revealed, and the corners of the eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but have a hint of nobility.

If Gao Anaqiu and others were here, they would definitely exclaim: Queen Mother. This man in black is Gao Wei's concubine Feng Xiaolian, and now the queen of the puppet emperor Gao Wei. It's just that I don't know why she left the palace late at night, and she was dressed like this, appearing here as a subordinate.

……

On the same day that Gao Wei fled back to Yecheng, the Zhou army, which had been resting for several days, finally made a new move.

Because the Northern Qi Dynasty suddenly abolished the old and established the new, and Gao Yanzong ascended the throne as emperor, the morale of the Qi army was greatly boosted and morale was high, so Yuwen Yong suspended the order to attack. Although this sudden change exceeded his expectations, Yu Wenyong was not afraid, let alone give up.

On October 25, Yuwen Yong divided 100,000 elites into four divisions to besiege Jinyang City, and built a fortified camp outside Jinyang City, apparently preparing for a tug-of-war with Gao Yanzong.

Zhou Jun was wearing brown clothes, similar to the soil, and now it stretches for dozens of miles, and it seems that Jinyang City is shrouded in endless black clouds in all directions, which has caused great psychological pressure on the soldiers and civilians in the city.

"Gao Yanzong, Yisheng is here again, do you dare to go out of the city to fight?"

"Gao Yanzong, are you just like Gao Wei's faint monarch and a turtle with a shrunken head, don't you dare to come out to meet people? There is a kind of you who will go out of the city and fight to the death with my Great Zhou heroes, what kind of man is a turtle in the city? ”

"Brother Wang, you're wrong to blame others. You must know that Gao Yanzong is famous for his brain and intestines, his belly is as big as a fight, and it is quite difficult to walk, how can he fight across a horse? If you want me to say that the Qi State really deserves to die, it is ridiculous to leave a coward, but let a pig be the emperor, it is ridiculous, ridiculous! ”

"Hahahaha!"

……

In the city of Jinyang, the palace hall.

"Your Majesty, please bring the last general 3,000 cavalry, and the last general will definitely take the dog head of Na Yisheng, so that he will not dare to make noise again!" Helan Leopard clenched his fists and said loudly with righteous indignation.

"Yes, Your Majesty, give the order! It is not a way for us to stay in the city like this after all, and only by completely defeating the Zhou army can we achieve victory! Mo Duo Jingxian also stepped forward, looking at Gao Yanzong with burning eyes, his eyes full of raging anger.

"Your Majesty, give the order!" Other generals also came out to ask for their lives, and everyone was emotional and angry.

In the past two days, the Zhou army came to the land of Jinyang City early in the morning, and did not attack, but only opened a battle position.

Because the new emperor of Gao Yanzong ascended the throne, the foundation was unstable, there were many things to deal with, and the Qi army was newly defeated, the quality of the army was uneven, and the management and scheduling also needed to be integrated.

However, when Gao Yanzong did not leave the station, Zhou Jun scolded loudly, and all kinds of vicious words emerged one after another, and he did everything he could to insult. The so-called lord humiliated the death of his ministers, although Gao Yanzong was secretly ridiculed by everyone before, but now he is the emperor and the master after all, how can everyone tolerate him being so slandered and insulted by the Zhou army, so the generals came to ask for their lives.
