Yuan Gongchen lifted the curtain and looked inside, but saw Lord Zuo Du Rong Yanmen sitting in the sedan chair, and he was so frightened for a while that he didn't know how to withdraw his hand, only to feel that the corners of his mouth twitched badly, and he couldn't make a flattering smile.

Yuan Xun pushed him and said with a smile: "Second brother is quite satisfied?" ”

Yuan Gongchen knelt on the ground in a hurry, buried his head in his knees, and whispered: "Jiangguan Prefecture knocks to welcome Lord Zuodu." His shoulders trembled slightly, showing that the horror in his heart had not gone away.

Rong Yanmen snorted coldly, raised his feet and stood up from the sedan chair, dressed in a blue silk shirt, with a slender figure, a slight beard and white face, a handsome and handsome spirit, with a faint tiredness in his eyes, he glanced down at Yuan Gongchen, did not speak, and walked towards the main hall of the inner house. Yuan Gongchen got up from the ground and glanced at Yuan Xun suspiciously, Yuan Xun pouted inside, and also walked towards the house, Yuan Gongchen reached out and patted his forehead, a few doubtful hallucinations, but saw Yuan Xun standing in the threshold and signaling him to come in.

Rong Yanmen said: "Have you lived comfortably in Jiangguan all these years? ”

has the support of Tianji Xueqiu, Rong Yanmen, and his power in Nanping is not as good as that of the old emperor Yuanzhen. Yuan Zhen and himself still miss the relationship between brothers and sisters, but Rong Yanmen will not care about these. Yuan Gongchen only felt that the tip of his nose was oozing dense beads of sweat, but he didn't dare to wipe it off with his sleeves, his family knew his own affairs, over the years, he had guarded Jiangguan, and he really did nothing, but the Wu family couldn't offend Nanping, so he did the Taiping Metropolitan Mansion for so many years.

Rong Yanmen said: "I often hear people say that as long as you hunt beautiful girls, you often don't go to the yatang to act as military and political affairs in ten months, but you don't return Jiangguan to the Wu family, which is really amazing." ”

Yuan Gongchen was sincerely frightened, and he wanted to kneel on the ground again, let Rong Yanmen stretch out his hand to stop him, and said: "Gongchen doesn't dare to take credit, and the prestige of Lord Zuo Governor will keep Jiangguan fine." ”

"In that case, you will entrust the military and political affairs of Jiangguan to Yuan Xun, and you will stay in the inner house for this ten months."

Yuan Gongchen is just lustful, but not incompetent, seeing Yuan Xun and Rong Yanmen coming together, thinking of the fact that Yuan Xun and Rong Yanmen competed for the merit of Yu Zhang at the banquet a year ago, it was just a performance for the Wu family to see, so it seems that it is time to make a move on Cheng Yu.

Yuan Gongchen said: "The Han court has made a decision to go west? ”

The remnants of the old dynasty moved to Linxiangyi, Nanping County, with Linxiangyi as the capital, the city according to the Xijing system, built the palace and the palace, three generations of the old emperor lived here, and the people of Nanping called it the Han court.

Rong Yanmen's face sank, and he didn't answer, Yuan Xun said on the side: "The strategy of westward expansion is very secret, how can it be openly discussed in the court?" The Left Governor supervises the military on the left road, and goes west to worship the table, without the need for the Han Dynasty's edict. ”

Yuan Gongchen said: "The Shu Road is dangerous, the army on the left is arguing with the Huo family in Xiangyang, the left governor waved his division westward, and the Huo family took the opportunity to counterattack and plunder Jingzhou. ”

Yuan Xun smiled: "I thought that the second brother only knew how to play beautiful women in Jiangguan, but I didn't expect the second brother to also care about state affairs?" ”

Yuan Gongchen's old face turned red, and he saw that Rong Yanmen's face was as calm as water, and he couldn't see through what he was thinking.

Yuan Xun continued: "After a little bit of the world's major events, very people can do it, now it is a patient in the neighborhood of Nanping, Chengyu, Jiangning, Xiangyang only, although Chengyu is dangerous, the power is weaker than Jiangning and Xiangyang, the Luo family in Rongcheng and the Wu family in Yuzhou are all unreasonable, and the subjects are not attached, plus they are far away from the danger and are not repaired, it is a good opportunity to attack, and the elite soldiers are lightly armed, and the Wu family found that our army has crossed the dangerous pass on the east side of Yuzhou, and the Wu family can go down to the Wu family in a battle; And Jiang Ning had no time to take care of himself at this time, and Xiangyang suddenly heard that our army was on an expedition of 10,000 miles, and he couldn't ease his mind for a while, even if they united several families to attack, Jingzhou was guarded by Ling Shuai, which was enough to resist it, and there would be no trouble. ”

Yuan Gongchen saw that his words were conclusive, and knew that Rong Yanmen had made up his mind, and it was definitely not something that his small Jiangguan Metropolitan Mansion could stop. Secret way: If Rong Yanmen succeeds in advancing westward, then Rong's [***] Han Ting will also. Over the years, only the Rong family was the most resolute voice of the restoration in the court, and it was the concentration of the Rong family's forces on the left side. The north of Nanping is on the left, and the military north of Linxiang is controlled by Rong Yanmen, and the army gathered in Nanping on this road is as high as 200,000 people, whether it is north, east, or west, the power of the Rong clan has been greatly expanded.

After the fall of the old dynasty, it was actually the Yuan family attached to the Rong family, and the Tianji Xueqiu pushed the Yuan family to Zhengshuo, and the Han Dynasty was resided by the descendants of the Yuan family, but over the years, there have been discussions between the two families with the same surname, and the two families have joined the surname just to facilitate the Rong family's children to steal the throne.

Yuan Gongchen looked at Rong Yanmen's eyes like dark corundum, a slight chill in his heart, calmed his mind a little, and said: "Gongchen is really worried, he forgot that Lord Zuo Du has always been a last resort. ”

Rong Yanmen said unmoved: "Gongchen has been in Jiangguan for a long time, should you know Wu Qingyi's fame?" ”

Yuan Gongchen is lustful and famous, Yuan Gongchen Ping said that he was not ashamed of it, but he heard Rong Yanmen mention it himself, he couldn't hold it on his face, and coughed a few times in embarrassment, and squeaked and said: "Wu Qingyi is the young daughter of Wu Liren, she has a beautiful name since she was a child, and Lu Zhi said, the audience is like a tide, sighing as a celestial, Gu Shida also sent courtship, and often said to his subordinates: If the Wu family does not succeed, he will raise troops to attack Yuzhou." The Wu family and the Luo family have become the Chengyu clan, intermarriage and marriage, Wu Liren will Wu Qingyi in and Lu Zhi will be allowed to Shu people Long Luo Changde, just wait for Wu Qingyi to be out of the pavilion, "Speaking of this, he sighed slightly, "The two families built Tsing Yi City on the bank of the Fujiang River between Rongcheng and Yuzhou, and Wu Tsing Yi lived in Tsing Yi City. ”

Yuan Xun said with a smile: "In ancient times, there was a golden house to hide Jiaojiao, and now there is a famous city to protect the beauty, this Tsing Yi City is probably quite heavily guarded, right?" ”

Rong Yan's protégé is serious and unsmiling, mentioning this matter is not just to humiliate himself, Yuan Gongchen cleared his throat and said: "Gu Shida sent a few masters into Shu, all of them were folded in Tsing Yi City, I... I've also sent some people to explore Tsing Yi City......"

Yuan Xun laughed loudly and said to Rong Yanmen: "Zuo Governor is like a god, and there is really no need for me to prepare for this matter." ”

Yuan Gongchen was like falling clouds, but he heard Rong Yanmen's indifferent and somewhat lonely voice say: "If I transfer a thousand tiger benlang to you, how can you be sure that Wu Qingyi will be robbed back to Jiangguan?" ”

Yuan Gongchen said: "The army enters Shu, except for Jiangguan, Baidi, and Yuzhou, there is no other way, if it is a tiger Benlang, then directly go over the mountains and mountains to take a wild path, attack it unprepared, a thousand tiger Benlang is enough, but I don't know what to do after capturing Tsing Yi City?" ”

Rong Yanmen said: "I will take eight thousand tigers with me this time, and you will take the lead in attacking Tsing Yi City, capturing Wu Tsing Yi and guarding the city for ten days, then count your merits, Wu Tsing Yi, you can be included in the room." ”

Yuan Gongchen was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately pushed the mountain to bow down, and said: "Gongchen is not a man who seeks Tsing Yi, there are a thousand tigers and Benlang to help, but he can't succeed, and he will see the lord when he cuts his head." But he didn't know whether the young man he was referring to in his mouth was a famous city or a beautiful woman.

When the Lord of Jiangguan Prefecture entrusted all the affairs of Jiangguan to the new Jiangguan Military Horse Yasi Lord Yuan Xun, he hid in the inner house and avoided the guests. The people in Jiangguan City are not used to seeing it, and they all laugh that he has won a new beauty again, and he is wasting sleep and forgetting food to sow seeds and cultivate. Yuan Gongchen hid in a side courtyard of the inner house and did not come out, where it was guarded by a few healthy women, and the inner was also waited by a few women who came with the boat.

Out of the river Guancheng, the back mountain cliff is a thousand feet, there is a trail into the mountain, this trail is originally opened by Yuan Gongchen to take the female to visit the mountain to view the scenery, and it is said that the civilian merchants are approached. That night, Yuan Gongchen led a thousand tigers into the mountain from the trail, and the trail stopped for ten miles, only the majestic mountains and mountains were in front of him. Along the way up the mountain high valley deep, both difficult and dangerous, Yuan Gongchen and a thousand tiger Ben Lang from here to the northwest to Tsing Yi City, more than 500 miles are uninhabited, but in order to facilitate the mountains and mountains, in addition to the short blade, Mo bow, quiver, Jian Jia and other necessities, each person only carries eight military rations, digging mountains to open the road, encountering water crossing, Yuan Gongchen sent people from Jiangguan to sneak to Tsing Yi City several times, the line is also this extremely dangerous and remote road, the direction is not bad, the five hundred miles of mountain road has gone seven days but has not passed, the military food will be exhausted, there is still no one everywhere, The crowd came to a steep slope. The forerunner pointed to the bottom of the mountain, where there seemed to be a wild path leading into the distance.

Yuan Gongchen's face was happy, pointed to the wild path under the mountain, and said: "This road leads directly to Tsing Yi City, Wu Liren and Luo Changde selected nearly 1,000 girls from Shu to accompany them, and captured Tsing Yi City, Ren Er and other choices. ”

The surrounding generals were all indifferent, and the accompanying commander said impatiently: "The sergeant is tired from driving the mountain road for seven days, and this mountain cliff is a hundred feet dangerous, how can he go down?" ”

Eight thousand tiger Ben Lang is the pro-army of the left governor Rong Yanmen, the commander of the eight schools are Rong Yanmen's cronies, and the skills have to be taught by Rong Yanmen, and the general position is not lower than his small Jiangguan capital, although Rong Yanmen ordered a thousand tiger Ben Lang to obey Yuan Gongchen's orders on this trip, but looking at this situation, as long as he brought them to Tsing Yi City, he would be thrown aside.

Yuan Gongchen was smiling bitterly, a brown pony galloped on the path, a girl in red sat on the saddle sideways, folded a green flower branch, danced in front of her eyebrows, walked to a hundred zhang away, found the strange state on the cliff, covered her lips and snorted, hurriedly turned the horse's head, straddled the horse's back, whipped the horse's buttocks with the flower branch, and galloped into the distance. The master of the tiger chased after him, but he saw the brown pony galloping faster and faster, until he was behind, as if flying on the grass, he knew that he could not catch up, so he had to return from a distance.

Yuan Gongchen said: "In this way, only by going down from this cliff and attacking Tsing Yi City non-stop, can it be successful, if you take a detour, it will be a day later to get to Tsing Yi City. ”

The commander of the army pondered for a moment and asked, "How does the capital go down?" ”

Yuan Gongchen's cultivation was eroded by the woman, there was not much left at this time, and he was exhausted after entering the mountain, and the last two hiking roads still needed help to barely get through. At this time, he couldn't get off this cliff with his own strength, Yuan Gongchen saw the disdain in the eyes of the commander of the army, his face sank, and he turned back to the generals and shouted: "Tsing Yi City is under the cliff, and those who retreat and fear can go back to see Lord Zuo Du to offer their heads." With that, he untied his military blanket and wrapped himself in it, jumped down the cliff, and tumbled down the steep slope of the cliff. The generals climbed the trees one after another, followed the cliff cliff, and went down to the bottom of the cliff.

Yuan Gongchen's face was short and fat, and at this time it was even more bruised and swollen, the corners of his mouth were oozing blood, and he pointed to the extension of the wild path and said: "If you make a contribution, you will become what you are today." Throwing off the hand that was supporting the person, he strode forward, and everyone was inspired by his courage, followed him closely, and hugged Tsing Yi City.

Although Tsing Yi City received a message from the red-clothed girl Pegasus, they did not believe that an army could be born out of thin air from the barren mountains and mountains, and the city gate was not closed. Before the sentry came out of ten miles, he encountered the Tiger Benlang army led by Yuan Gongchen and was shocked. Dozens of masters rushed out of the Hu Ben Lang army, and rushed towards Tsing Yi City after the Tsing Yi Sentinel, and the East Gate Sentinel heard the message of the Sentry, and before he could close the city gate, he saw two Hu Ben Lang holding the Pu knife and killing him violently, followed by dozens of Jiang Dong Jianyong with short blades and shirtless chest, and they were so frightened that they retreated into the city at the moment. Hu Benlang slashed and hacked to death dozens of guards guarding the gate, and controlled the east gate. A few men descended into the horrified crowd and slashed and slashed, causing panic and stopping the defenders of the city from taking the east gate.

Although Tsing Yi City is called a city, it is only the scale of the big fort, surrounded by two miles, the official offices of the Metropolitan Government, the Military Horse Division, the Metropolitan Judgment Division, and the Zhidu Cao are all available, and there are thousands of garrisons. Wu Cheng, the guard general in Tsing Yi, listened to the message of the girl in red, and was lying drunk in the capital, and when he first heard the news of the enemy, he was not panicked. After half an hour, he heard that the east gate had been taken by the bandits, and he woke up from the wine, and he had heard of no more than thirty or fifty people, so he couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Gu Shida deceived my Wu family too much. "Urgently ordered people to prepare horses, instructed the entourage not to alarm Miss Tsing Yi, and asked the deputy general to lead his Jingwei to guard in Tsing Yi Garden, so as not to fall into the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. He rode to the army and horses, and ordered three hundred soldiers to go to the east gate. When I saw the east gate, I saw two men on the long street pushing two carts, lying across the road, taking out the fire fold from their arms, and lighting up the sundries drenched with fire oil on the car, and then the fire started, and the two men pushed the blazing cart and rushed towards the three hundred soldiers. The sergeants went around to avoid the fire and made a mess. Wu Cheng took a breath and rushed out of the flames, but saw the two men fleeing far away, and before he could catch up, he dragged the train aside, but he heard the sound of fighting from the west gate, the south gate, and the north. At this time, I knew that the Zhentian Army suddenly descended to attack the city, and I was frightened for a while, and hurriedly led the soldiers to run towards Tsing Yi Yuan in the center of the city.

The people of Li in the city here are running around and crying ghosts, and there are bursts of killing sounds in all directions, fireworks are soaring into the sky, and the four gates are not prepared to let Hu Benlang kill into the city.

Wu Cheng led the troops to Tsing Yi Yuan, killed dozens of people from the bypass, and shouted in front of one person: "Your grandfather Su Chuan Gu is here." Wu Cheng can chop away with a thick-backed knife, the blade is pointed, full of energy, before he can see it, he has already felt that he has cut his face, Wu Cheng retreated sharply, avoided a knife, but saw that the tiger-faced big man did not accept the knife, directly obliquely to the side, dragged and smashed, the thick knife spine smashed on a sergeant's head, and smashed his white crystal brain.

Wu Cheng didn't even dare to enter Tsing Yi Yuan, hurriedly left the sergeant and retreated to the south gate, glanced back, only to see that dozens of people killed among the three hundred sergeants, like a tiger into the flock, killed three hundred soldiers, collapsed, disheartened, knowing that he could not save the defeat with his own strength, he fled out of the city by his own strength, mixed with the refugees, looked back at the city, had hung the Nanping military flag, and was surprised: the tiger-faced man in front of Tsing Yi Yuan personally drank that he was a member of the Suchuan Valley family, looking at the reckless appearance of the big man, he must have inadvertently leaked secrets. I thought that Jiang Minao Yuan Gongchen was also salivating for Miss Tsing Yi, if Xu was really a Nanping military horse, he thought again: Yuan Gongchen has lost power for a long time, where will the small Jiangguan Metropolitan Mansion transfer this strong military horse.

Thinking of her failure to defend the city, Miss Tsing Yi was most likely attacked by thieves*, returned to Yuzhou, and her life was not guaranteed, so she summoned a deserter from among the refugees, handed over the seal of the capital to him, and said: "There is a great merit for you here, you go to Yuzhou to report the news, and say that Gu Shida has a surprise soldier trapped in Tsing Yi, and Miss Tsing Yi is trapped in the city." The deserter said, "You don't want to go to Yuzhou with this merit?" Don't lie to me. Wu Cheng sighed: "I am guilty of losing the city, I can't escape death in Yuzhou, you are a sergeant who desperately broke out of the siege and reported the news, and it is naturally different from me to go to Yuzhou." The deserter nodded and said, "Absolutely." He happily took the Tsing Yi Metropolitan Seal into his arms and walked towards Yuzhou.

Wu Cheng knew that there was no place for himself in Chengdu-Chongqing, and he was jealous that Gu Shida came here to seize the city, and suspected that it was Yuan Gongchen of Jiangguan who was making trouble, thought for a moment, and thought to himself: It is said that Xu Ruyu rose to Jiangning, recruited talents and selected talents, regardless of his background, he mixed into the homeless people who went to Jiangning, changed his identity, and relied on his own ability, it is not difficult to regain fame. Thinking so, he threw himself into the mountains and went to Jiangning.

Hu Benlang captured the east gate, Yuan Gongchen ordered the masters of Hu Benlang's army to go straight to the Tsing Yi Yuan in the center of the city, so as not to Wu Qingyi to escape from the city by taking advantage of the chaos, and instructed the masters of the Hu Benlang army to dress up as the people sent by Suchuan Valley Shida, although the Nanping military flag was erected in the city, no matter how effective it was, Wu Liren and Luo Changde would only be more shocked when they heard the news. When the Tiger Benlang generals completely controlled Tsing Yi City, Yuan Gongchen rushed to Tsing Yi Yuan in a hurry, as if the exhaustion of several days made the spring qing in his heart burn completely in an instant. Through the hall and over the room, he pushed the door and stepped on the threshold, and let the tiger Benlang Jingwei beside him escort a pretty maid in the garden to look at Wu Qingyi's residence.

Pushing the door to take a look, I saw a young girl in Tsing Yi sitting in front of the dressing table, combing her hair in front of the bronze mirror, her hair was combed, and she turned around to look, her appearance was beautiful, and her complexion was jade, Yuan Gongchen only felt infinite pity welling up in her chest, and took a step forward and said, "Miss Tang Tu Tsing Yi." "Reach out and take her hand.

Wu Qingyi was not moved, calmly tied his hair, and said with his hands: "The heroes of the world are just Xu Ru's foolish ears, how can Tsing Yi sleep with pigs and dogs?" Turning his hand from between his sleeves, a sharp blade against his chest was exposed, and his clear eyes looked at the tiger wolf in the room aggressively.
