Since she was pregnant, Lu Qing has been more careful with maintenance, she used to go out for a walk, but now she doesn't even take a step at the door, her whole mind is on the future child, thinking about what clothes to make for the child and what to name it? Will it be a boy or a girl, I have sustenance in my heart, and I don't feel bored.

At night, there was a light rain in the sky, Lu Qing sat alone in front of the window, holding her cheeks and thinking about her thoughts, leaving in the afternoon, but Lu Qing was wondering if she would meet her husband in Xiapi County?

In fact, with Lu Qing's wisdom, how could she not see Chuchen's thoughts, every time her husband came out, she would find all kinds of reasons to hide, but at the same time she was unwilling to leave her mansion, Lu Qing is also a woman, how can a woman not understand a woman?

In fact, it's not that Lu Qing doesn't want to fulfill her, but is he willing to be a wife? And if the husband is willing to accept her, if these premises are not handled properly, the matter will be revealed rashly, and everyone will be embarrassed, and in the end, they will break up unhappily, and good things will become bad things.

Lu Qing couldn't help but sigh softly, and at this moment, she faintly heard 'Ah! It seemed to be a woman's scream, and Lu Qing was so frightened that he stood up suddenly.

"Yu'e!" She hurriedly shouted.

A female guard appeared briskly in front of the window, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

"Did you hear someone shouting?"

"I heard that, too, and I wanted to go over and have a look."

Lu Qing looked at the dark courtyard and tree shadows outside, she felt scared for the first time in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Don't go!" ”

"Yes! Madame, rest assured, I will not leave. ”

Lu Qing glanced back and asked again, "What about Ah Yuan and Lixiang?" ”

"They went to Jiangyang, and they don't seem to have come back yet."

'These two dead girls, are you dizzy from playing?' Lu Qing complained in a low voice.

Just then, another shouting was heard outside. "Who are you, stop!" Two screams followed, this time very clearly, the voice of the female guard in the outer courtyard, and the voice of a man.

Lu Qing's face turned pale with shock, and he took a few steps back. I saw two people rushing in from the gate of the courtyard, both dressed in black, holding a short sword with cold light in their hands, the person at the head was very short, like an ape, I saw him lightly, soared into the air, and rushed towards Lu Qing.

The female guard Yu'e was startled and turned around and rushed away. But he was stopped by another man in black, brush! Brush! Brush! stabbed three times in a row and forced the female guard.

Lu Qing screamed in fright and turned to run, but she tripped over the table and fell to the ground all of a sudden, so frightened that she curled up and covered her mouth with her hands. Looking at the killer in front of him with a frightened face, the thin man ripped off his mask. It was Shang Huaizhu, who had a cruel smile on his face, and walked towards Lu Qing step by step with his sword.

"I, Shang Huaizhu, never kill women, but this is a military order, and your husband owes me, so I have to make an exception."

He swung his sword and killed Lu Qing. At this moment, I heard an angry rebuke above my head, "Death to the thief!" ”

Shang Huaizhu only felt a chill on his right neck, and he was horrified in his heart, and fell to the left in the direction of the cold wind. 'Poof! His neck escaped, but his ears were cut in half.

Shang Huaizhu was so frightened that he jumped into the yard twice, and before he could get up, there was another cold wind behind him, so he had to 'click!' With a thud, his right arm was slashed off.

"Ahh

Shang Huaizhu screamed in pain, got up and fled out of the courtyard without his life, at this time, a group of angry female guards rushed in front of him, they were merciless, and the swords were thrown together, and the faltering Shang Huaizhu couldn't dodge, and was pierced through the body by seven or eight swords, and died tragically on the spot.

Shang Huaizhu until he died, and he didn't know whose hand he planted, behind him stood a woman in red with a sword, it was Zhang Chuchen who went and returned, she saw the female guards surrounding another man in black, and seeing that she was about to kill the killer, she was so anxious that she shouted: "Don't kill him, stay alive!" ”

The female guards knocked the man in black to the ground and quickly tied him up, Zhang Chuchen ran towards the house, at this time, Lu Qing had already stood up, holding on to the wall and still in shock, Zhang Chuchen hurriedly supported her, "Sister Qing, let's go to the inner room!" ”

Zhang Chuchen helped Lu Qing, who was retching for a while, into the back room and sat down, poured her another glass of water, Lu Qing drank the water and slowly calmed down.

"Wu Niang, aren't you leaving? How did you come back again? ”

"Don't mention it!"

Zhang Chuchen smiled bitterly: "When I went out, I saw three people sneakily staring at the mansion in front of the opposite wine shop to discuss something, I didn't care at first, but the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and I got off the boat halfway and rushed back, which was also an eye-opener, just in time, otherwise I would regret it for the rest of my life." ”

Lu Qing was very grateful in his heart, took her hand and said, "It was God who sent you here and asked you to save my life, and also saved the life of the child in my womb." ”

Zhang Chuchen was a little embarrassed and said: "Don't say that, we are like sisters, how can I not save you." ”

"I wonder who wants to kill me?"

Lu Qing remembered what the thin assassin said, understood a little in his heart, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and hating: "These despicable villains, who can't beat my husband on the battlefield, but came to assassinate his family, what kind of hero is this?" ”

Zhang Chuchen sighed in his heart, she was born in Huofeng, this kind of thing has been seen too much, as long as many people can achieve their goals, they will never consider what means to use, if Lu Qing is assassinated, Zhang Xuan is very likely to withdraw from the army, and the purpose of those people will be achieved.

Thinking of this, she put her arms around Lu Qing's shoulders and said in a deep voice: "From now on, I will not leave you, and only I can keep you safe. ”

．．．．．．．

Zhang Xuan did not know that there was an assassination of his family in Jiangdu, at this time he led the killing into Pengcheng County, it was getting late, Zhang Xuan set up a large camp about ten miles northeast of Pengcheng County, he was very worried that the Menghai Guild would break through in the direction of Qingzhou in the north, and specially ordered Pei Xingyan to lead the cavalry to bypass from the north to block the northern retreat of Menghai Gong.

But this is also the case, at the same time that Zhang Xuan led the army into Pengcheng County, Meng Haigong finally accepted Han Zhishui's suggestion and divided the troops into two routes, he left his younger brother Meng Qigui to lead 20,000 troops to defend Pengcheng County and drag the Sui army, and he himself led 30,000 troops to retreat in the direction of Lu County.

Meng Haigong finally accepted the reality, he could not resist the attack of the two armies of Yang Yichen and Zhang Xuan, and had only one way to go north to Qingzhou and build another foundation in Qingzhou.

Zhang Xuan did not immediately pursue Meng Haigong, with Pei Xingyan's cavalry to contain it, Meng Haigong's northward retreat would not be fast, and he needed to discuss with Yang Yichen the next course of action.

"General, Yang Dashuai's army is here!" A soldier reported at the tent door.

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, and quickly walked out of the camp, and saw a huge Sui army coming slowly to this side under the reflection of the sunset, dozens of cavalry scouts rushed to investigate, and in a moment, the army stopped a few miles away, and a group of cavalry followed the scouts to the side of the camp.

Headed by a general in his fifties, he was tall and thin, with sharp eyes, and a wisp of beard floating under his chin, which looked particularly majestic and elegant, and it was Yang Yichen, a famous general of the Great Sui.

Zhang Xuan greeted him with a smile, hugged his fists and saluted: "See the big handsome!" ”

Zhang Xuan's official position, title and qualifications are far below Yang Yichen, and even Zhang Xutuo will respectfully salute Yang Yichen, but Yang Yichen is not a little condescending, he laughed and saluted Zhang Xuan back: "I have long admired General Zhang's youth and promisingness, and when I see it today, it really deserves its name!" ”

He smiled again: "Although it is only the first time to meet General Zhang, we should have a tacit understanding." ”

Zhang Xuan knew that he was referring to the attack on Sun Xuanya, when Sun Xuanya and Meng Haigong formed an alliance, and Yang Yichen, who served as the general guard of Pengcheng, stared at Meng Haigong to death, so that Sun Xuanya was isolated and finally defeated by Zhang Xuanya.

"Dashuai is right, he has already cooperated with Dashuai in Langya County, and this is the second time we have cooperated, and it is still so tacit!"

Yang Yichen laughed and took Zhang Xuan's arm and walked into the camp, which showed that the two of them had a close relationship.

Walking into the handsome tent, Yang Yichen followed Zhang Xuan to the map, the map is the sand table of the four counties of Xuzhou just made by Zhang Xuan, the city, the town, the river, the bridge, the hills, and the road are clear on the sand table, Yang Yichen was immediately attracted, he looked at it for a long time, and praised sincerely: "This is a good treasure for war!" I've been in Xuzhou for four years, and I'm afraid I don't know this thing in detail. ”

Zhang Xuan smiled, picked up the wooden pole and pointed to a small town north of Pengcheng and said: "This is Jiawang Town, our army is stationed in the west of this town, about ten miles away from Pengcheng County, at present, the thieves are divided into two roads, one way to refuse to defend Pengcheng, and the other way to Qingzhou, I want to discuss with the marshal, the marshal is responsible for recovering Pengcheng, I will pursue the north thief army, I don't know if the marshal agrees?" ”

Yang Yichen smiled slightly: "I have more troops than you, it should be me to pursue the main force of the enemy." ”

"That's not it!"

Zhang Xuan hurriedly explained: "Most of the brothers in our army are from Qingzhou, and when I heard that Meng Haigong led the army to invade Qingzhou, the brothers were anxious, so it was up to me to pursue, and in addition, I have sent a cavalry team to harass the thieves, and they can't go fast." ”

Yang Yichen pondered for a moment and said, "That's it! I have a great deal of confidence in capturing Pengcheng, I will take Pengcheng County as soon as possible, and then I will lead the army north to help you, what do you think? ”

Zhang Xuan nodded happily, "Then we'll make up our minds!" (To be continued.) )
