"It's so bold, you actually want to welcome Xiao Hou into Chang'an, you are delusional." Yu Wenhua regarded Empress Xiao as a forbidden person early on, how could he let Ji Gang take Empress Xiao away, stood up violently, glanced around, and thought about finding a weapon to kill Ji Gang.

"Father, wait." Yuwen Chengdu blocked Yu Wenhua and said to Ji Gang: "Just now you said that you exchanged the news for Empress Xiao, say it!" What's the news? "Yuwen Chengdu himself is a little dissatisfied with Yu Wenhua and coveting Empress Xiao, and now if he can let Empress Xiao leave the camp because of this, he is still willing.

"Sima Dejia is ready, ready to wait for the attack on the camp." Ji Gang glanced outside, but saw that the sky outside was dim, there were already stars rising in the sky, it was getting late, and it was just the time to make an appointment with Shen Qianqiu.

"Impossible, his soldiers and horses have been thrown into chaos, how dare he rebel?" Yu Wenhua retorted.

"Kill! Killed Yu Wenhua and. At this time, suddenly there was a shouting sound in the distance, and Ji Gang suddenly showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, looked at Yu Wenhua, and said, "Lord Yuwen, let's find a way to deal with Sima Deji!" Remember, after the rebellion is put down tomorrow, the last general will return to Beijing after welcoming Xiao. ”

"Come back tomorrow!" Yu Wenhua's face was gloomy and uncertain, looking at Ji Gang, the corners of his mouth showed a hint of sarcasm, and then his eyes flashed fiercely, and he glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, and the father and son didn't care about Ji Gang, so they committed suicide outside, beckoning soldiers and horses to prepare to quell the rebellion.

And at this moment, in the imperial camp, Empress Xiao listened to the shouts outside, her face was pale, and her eyes showed a look of fear, she couldn't forget that one night not long ago, it was also night, Yang Guang was killed by Yu Wenhua in a mutiny.

"Look, mother." Suddenly, a palace maid beside her pointed to the ground in the distance, and Empress Xiao looked over, and the carpet on the ground arched higher and higher. Then there was a "stab" sound, and a sharp blade suddenly rushed out, and then a big man appeared from the entrance of the cave, Xiao Hou's eyes lit up, and she recognized that the other party was Shen Qianqiu who she had seen before.

"Mother, come with us." Shen Qianqiu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Taking advantage of the melee between the two armies, Niangniang will come with us." ”

Xiao Hou was stunned for a moment, and soon understood that the big battle outside was not good because it had something to do with Shen Qianqiu and others. I didn't dare to slack off at the moment, I didn't even care about packing my clothes, so under the leadership of Shen Qianqiu, I went into the hole, at this time, what etiquette and dignity had been left behind, and it was the most important thing to be able to escape with my life. She knew that if she stayed here, she would be killed by Yu Wenhua sooner or later, and if she was the worst, she would be possessed by the other party. Although this is the case. In the troubled times, it is also normal, Empress Xiao even made this kind of preparation, but for the enemy who killed her husband. Let her sleep in the other party's arms, she still can't bear it, so she followed Shen Qianqiu to Chang'an so happily.

Behind her, two palace maids also followed. As for Ji Gang, he was the last to fall into the tunnel, but after only a few hundred steps, Empress Xiao felt the breeze blowing outside. Let her be open-minded.

"Mother, get on board." Shen Qianqiu's voice came again, and Empress Xiao realized that she didn't know when, there was a canopy boat on the side of the canal, and Shen Qianqiu was standing on the bow of the boat.

"The general is thoughtful." Empress Xiao couldn't help but praise, her face was full of smiles, and she didn't know if she was happy after escaping from the cage, or if she was really praising her.

"Mother, please." Shen Qianqiu was very happy when she heard this, not to mention whether the woman in front of her would become Li Xin's pillow person in the future, that is, her two daughters were at least with Li Xin, and with her words, it was worth the risk this time.

The canopy boat soon disappeared by the canal, except for the distant shouts of killing, and flames that appeared out of thin air, shining in the sky like bright sparks in the night sky.

In fact, the fight between Yu Wenhua and Sima Dejiao did not last long, although Yu Wenhua and he was in a hurry, but in the end he had the upper hand in terms of numbers, and there was a strong Yuwen Chengdu, the battle ended in just one hour, and calm was restored in the camp, and Sima Dehuan, Zhao Xingshu and others were killed.

"Damn, hateful Li Xin." Yu Wenhua and before he had time to be happy, he received the news that Xiao Hou had disappeared, Yu Wenhua and immediately knew that he was afraid that he was in the chaos of the army, Li Xin's people took Xiao and left the camp, and when he felt the imperial tent, he found that Ji Gang and others had premeditated and dug a tunnel from the side of the canal, which easily took Xiao Hou.

There is still a fragrance left by the beautiful woman in the big tent, Yu Wenhua and he didn't have time to care about these, and immediately ordered the army to set off north, he now got rid of Sima Dejiao and others, although the 150,000 army lost some, but he still has strong combat effectiveness, the army ran over, the next is Li Mi, Yu Wenhua and is ready to attack Li Mi first, seize the overlord of the Central Plains, and then attack Luoyang, this is his plan. As for Empress Xiao, she could only put down this kind of mind for the time being.

Hedong City, Qu Tutong stood on the city wall, looking at the big camp in the distance, his face was gloomy, his side was his son Qu Tushou, he was here to persuade him to surrender, and Qu Tutong was also ready to surrender.

"Xianhe, how about it, isn't Rao Junsu unwilling to surrender to His Majesty the Emperor?" There was a sound of footsteps behind him, but he saw the general Sang Xianhe leading the generals over, Qu Tutong knew that it was impossible, but he still asked carefully.

"Rao Junsu said that he was sealed by the Son of Heaven, and was ordered by the Son of Heaven to assist the general to protect Guanzhong, and the general was favored by Sui Yang, why should he take refuge in the rebel at this moment?" Sang Xianhe's face was not good-looking, this sentence seemed to be talking about Qu Tutong, but in fact it was talking about the generals.

"What about you? Although Hedong City is a strong city, but there is not much grain, for half a year, the imperial court did not send a grain to Hedong, but King Zhao took pity on Hedong and sent a cart of grain. Qu Tutong sighed a little.

Sang Xianhe opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, is there no food in Hedong? The answer is that there is food, Hedong is an important military town, and it itself has a granary, and tens of thousands of troops can eat at least half a year, Qu Tutong said this, just making excuses for himself. In fact, he did not submit to Li Xin, but his philosophy was different from Li Xin, and he did not want to submit to Li Xin's command at all.

"Father, it's useless for someone like Rao Junsu to stay here, it's better to kill him." Qu Tushou said loudly. The rest of the generals had complicated expressions on their faces.

"Let him go! Tell the lieutenant generals and soldiers of the sù army that anyone who wants to leave Hedong should let them go back, and most of their homes are in Guanzhong. Their wives and children are also in Guanzhong, and those who want to go back to Guanzhong are let them go back. Qu Tutong suddenly thought of something, waved his hand and said.

"Father, there's an army of tens of thousands." Qu Tushou said loudly. The reason why Li Yuan attaches so much importance to Qu Tutong is because Qu Tutong has tens of thousands of troops in his hands. Now that Qu Tutong has asked these tens of thousands of people to leave Hedong with Rao Junsu, then Qu Tutong's value in front of Li Yuan will drop a lot in the future.

"A group of people with different intentions follow you, and you won't be able to sleep well." Qu Tutong waved his hand and said, "What His Majesty the Emperor needs is Hedong City, not anything else. If Rao Junsu is forcibly relieved of his military power, our people will suffer more casualties, not to mention. These people used to follow me. Pass the order! ”

Sang Xianhe and the others breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, they themselves were also from Guanzhong, and let their own people kill their own people, Sang Xianhe really couldn't do it, so Qu Tutong finally gave the order, which made him feel much better.

After half a ring, the gate of Hedong City opened, and Rao Junsu led an army of 12,000 Xiaoguo out of Hedong City. Qu Tutong did not stop it, but in a blink of an eye, he waved the white flag of Li Zhao, announcing that the important town of Hedong had completely fallen into the hands of Li Zhao, and the annexation of Hedong made Li Yuan occupy the entire annexed state. and will attack Guanzhong at any time, which is equivalent to a sharp sword suspended above Li Xin's head.

However, the return of Rao Junsu made Li Xin have more than 10,000 elite troops around him, and he personally came to the Yellow River to meet Rao Junsu. He was crowned the Marquis of Dongchuan, and more than 10,000 soldiers were placed in the two large battalions of Lantian and Bashang, so as to bring the old with the new. On the one hand, these veterans are stabilized, and on the other hand, their own army can quickly form combat effectiveness.

"Prime Minister, Princess Nanyang, please go back immediately." As soon as Li Xin had placed these soldiers, he saw Shen Guang leading the soldiers and horses over, and a trace of joy appeared on his face.

"Shen Guang, why are you so happy?" Li Xin quipped with a smile.

"Prime Minister, my brother is here." Shen Guang said with a smile: "He personally escorted a person to come, presumably he must be very happy after seeing him." ”

"Oh! Who the hell is coming? Li Xin asked curiously.

"Princess Yuerong." Shen Guang said with a smile.

"Princess Yuerong?" Li Xin's face changed, he calculated carefully, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly rushed towards Chang'an City, he calculated, Princess Yuerong actually left Jiangdu before Yang Guang died, otherwise, he would not have arrived in Chang'an City at this time.

"Li Xin." After arriving at the Wude Palace, I saw a thin girl rushing over, leaning on her arms and crying bitterly, the frightened Li Xin was at a loss, looking at the smiling Nanyang princess in the distance.

"Alright, alright, just come back, just come back." Li Xin patted Princess Yuerong on the back with some embarrassment, this naughty girl has now grown up, after losing her father, after a long journey, after seeing Li Xin, the grievances in her heart suddenly broke out.

"Li Xin, you have to avenge your father and kill Yu Wenhua and this dog thief." Princess Yuerong also realized that her situation was wrong, and she didn't care about the tears on her face, her face turned red, and she ran into Princess Nanyang's arms.

"This is natural." Li Xin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"San Lang, Yuerong came here, but thank you General Shen Gang. If it weren't for General Shen Gang, hey! Princess Nanyang looked at a young man in the distance, his face resembling Shen Guang.

"The last general, Shen Gang, has seen King Tang." Shen Gang fell to the ground.

"General, please, the general has worked hard." Li Xin liked this kind of loyal person very much, stepped forward to help him personally, and said: "The general is loyal and brave, guarding Yuerong all the way, and going through hardships, Li Xin thank you." Li Xingui was the king of Tang, but he said such things, although he did not promise any reward, but Shen Gang was very moved.

"That's how the end should be." Shen Gang blurted out without thinking about it.

"The general has worked hard, I won't keep the general today, Brother Ling is waiting for you, you and I will talk about it another day." Li Xin patted Shen Gang on the shoulder and said.

"The last will be retired." The corners of Shen Gang's mouth twitched, and a trace of excitement appeared on his face, so he retreated. (To be continued......)
