Zheyue Lan opened her eyes again, and the sky was already bright. In fact, she used to get up on the fifth watch day to practice, but when she woke up for the first time this morning, she didn't want to be too alert, and she was really tired from rushing yesterday, so she fell asleep again.

After dawn, Zheyue Lan finished washing. The wing room where she lives now is where the family of the folded family lives. Zhi Yuelan wanted to go out of the house to have a look, but was blocked by the two mothers-in-law guarding the door: "The lord has an order, there is a big event today, and the inner family is not allowed to go out of the second door." ”

"I'm not a relative of your house, I want to see Captain Zhe, and I have business to talk to him."

"The captain has not commanded, if the girl is let out, the old woman's head will not be protected."

Lu Mei jumped out: "My lady is the head of the Dai Zhou Zhe family, and she is also on an equal footing with you Zhe Taiwei, you eat leopard gall and dare to imprison my lady?" ”

When they were arguing, Zhe Yueru rushed over when she heard the sound and persuaded: "So that my sister can know that the whole city is under martial law today, and I can't go out, not for my sister." ”

"I wonder what the big things are today?"

"Sister, why don't you come to my residence, let's drink tea and play chess, it's better than sitting in our own room."

Zheyuelan followed Zheyueru. After the two sat down, Zhe Yuelan asked, "I haven't seen my brother-in-law yet." I wonder where my brother-in-law is now? ”

"Didn't you say that there was a big event today, and all the men in the house went out on business?"

"I don't know what the big deal is, so exciting."

"Sister, you put your ears in, I'll tell you." Zhe Yueru lowered her voice, "Today, the army of the Jin Kingdom crossed the border from Fuzhou to fight the Jinning army. The whole city of Fuzhou is on guard to prevent him from destroying the enemy by false means. ”

Zheyuelan put the teacup on the table: "The army of the Jin Kingdom? Can't even call a rope? ”

"Sister, be quiet." Zheyueru said to her maid: "You go to the door and keep guard, and Hugh will call the living people to approach." ”

She lowered her voice again: "Yankang also said that this thing is wrong, but we are here, we are always a guest, and we can't use our strength." ”

Zhi Yuelan became vigilant: "My sister is also here to join relatives and friends, and I can't help my sister anything." ”

Zhi Yueru said: "Several brothers here, the tenth, fifteenth, and nineteenth, are not willing to compromise with the Jin State, but after the deputy of Zhe Xuan was placed under house arrest, the dragons have no leader and no name. ”

"My sister is just a white woman, and I can't help my sister."

"It's okay, as long as my sister has a heart, wait for a few brothers to come back, and make a decision with my sister."

The army of the Jin State has already gone straight to the Jinning army. For a whole day and night, the seventy or eighty thousand troops of the Jin Kingdom, including the signing army, stopped outside the city of Fuzhou, making every soldier on the city wall feel nervous. Thankfully, they were finally gone.

After completing the task of monitoring Jin Bing, the children of the Zhi family who went out on business and Hu Yankang, who completed the task of monitoring the Jin soldiers, returned to the state government hall one after another to resume their lives. After the eldest son, Zhi Yanwu, was the last to return, reported that he was following the Jin Soldier Brigade, and confirmed that they would never be able to kill a horse pistol in a day, Zhi Keqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very good, Dalang, you can go down and rest first."

Zhi Yanwu went to sleep, but his brother Zhi Yanwen fought hard and fought with his cousin Zhi Yanqing, Zhi Yanwei, Huyan Yankang and Zhi Yuelan.

"Tenth brother, my father just wants to preserve the strength of the folding family, why did he come to this point? When the younger brother finds an opportunity, persuade his father to ......" Zhi Yanwen looked at his sister Zhi Yueru for help, hoping that she would say something.

Zhi Yueru said: "Yes, it's all a family, no matter how well you persuade your father, why bother to use swords?" ”

Hu Yanyankang coughed, and with a sound, Zhi Yueru was like a child who had done something wrong, and said: "I'll go and prepare some supper for you, and discuss it slowly tonight, there will always be a solution." ”

After Zhe Yueru withdrew from the room, Hu Yanyankang said: "There is time to persuade slowly, but the Jinning army can't wait, and the Yongxing army can't wait." If Wanyan Sticky Han and Wanyan Lou Room converge, Hexi Sixth Road will be lost. Brothers, think carefully about the gains and losses.

Zhi Yuelan looked at Hu Yan Yankang, this surnamed Hu Yan is also ruthless enough, it seems to be more decisive than Hu Yan Geng, this is the old man who wants to deal with him.

Zhi Yanqing suddenly asked Zhi Yuelan: "Third sister, can there be soldiers and horses in Hedong?" ”

"There are still some township soldiers and archers in Daizhou, but it's too late to transfer now?"

"Country archers, don't count on it. Then I'll ask the third sister one more thing, if it is in case, I wait for the wrong hand and don't rescue the deputy Xuan, can I ask Hu to appease the name of the name, in the name of the Beiyang pacification department, to take over the Linfu army. ”

"This ......"

Seeing Zhi Yuelan's hesitation, Zhi Yanwen said: "I'll just say, in the name of appeasement, it's not so easy to borrow, let's wait for the opportunity with peace of mind, let me persuade my father." ”

Zhi Yanqing said: "No, time is not waiting for me." Anyway, looking for appeasement is also the last resort, and it may not be used. When he said this, everyone looked at Zhi Yanwen.

Zhi Yanwei said: "It's just turning my uncle upside down, and it's not taking his life, so I have to worry about it." ”

When Zhiyueru came back, everyone had reached an agreement, and Zhiyueru gritted her teeth: "You guys be careful, Hugh has been mixed with poison." ”

Fuzhou spent three days peacefully, and did not hear the news that the Jin soldiers turned around and attacked Fuzhou, so he slowly relaxed his heart, it seems that the Jurchens acquiesced to him to keep Fuzhou, and the vigilance in the city slowly relaxed.

Zhe Keqiu returned to his house from the state government, and there was nothing to do today, but there was always a trace of uneasiness lingering in his heart. He wandered around the study: "Go and invite my uncle." ”

Zhe Keqiu called Huyan Yankang over: "Yankang, you have been with me for a long time, help me bring a message to my in-laws tomorrow." ”

Zhe Keqiu asked Yanzhou Hujia not to resist Jin Bing, but to echo each other with Zhe Keqiu.

Hu Yanyankang wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he agreed with a cold face.

Zhe Ke asked to see his demeanor, and laughed: "Young people have blood, only when you sit on the seat of the envoy of the festival one day, will you understand that everything must be in power." ”

"Xie Taishan taught."

"It's not too early, you hurry back and clean up with the fourth sister, you don't have to quit tonight."

Hu Yanyan did not go back to his residence, but went to find Zhi Yanwei, who informed the rest of the people. Zhi Yanwen said: "Do you have to do it tonight?" ”

"Exactly."

Everyone agreed, Zheyuelan went to the corridor to get his mount, carried a gun and a bow, and left the mansion. A family member at the door asked, and Zhi Yuelan replied: "I'm bored, go out and run a horse." ”

It's already the end of the day, and according to the habit of asking for daily life, I've fallen asleep. However, there was always a trace of uneasiness and boredom in his heart, which was the vigilance developed by his thirty or forty years of riding horses, and he felt that there was an undercurrent surging around him.

He lifted his iron shovel and walked around the mansion, and saw that the side door of the mansion was still ajar. He couldn't help but be furious: "Call the housekeeper, why don't you close the door?" ”

The housekeeper came in a panic, and when he saw that he was angry, he hurriedly bowed down: "The third girl went out to walk the horse, and she hasn't come back yet, so leave the door for him?" ”

"Is there any reason to walk a horse until midnight? Or is the city gate closed and you can't get in? "It's already very late in ancient times.

The city gate officials of the four cities were asked to ask, and the city gate officials of the southern city said: "There is indeed a woman who has gone out of the city, but she is dressed in light armor, and is equipped with guns and bows. ”

"How can there be a big night to practice martial arts, it seems that she is out of the city to do errands, but she should always inform me. The third sister is not so ignorant. ”

Suddenly, he begged for a spirit: "She wants to go out of the city, but she doesn't tell me, then this matter is to be hidden from me, what kind of conspiracy does she have?" He thought about Zhiyuelan's behavior repeatedly, but he didn't have a clue.

"The four cities are all optimistic, beware of the enemy's sneak attack. If you let in half a fly before dawn, you are the only one who asks. ”

Zhe Keqiu returned to the study, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, he sent a mother-in-law to Zheyuelan's residence, and found that Zheyuelan's maid was still there, Zhe Keqiu ordered Lu Mei to be brought over, and asked her: "Where has your master gone?" ”

"Miss said to go out and walk the horses."

"Nonsense, how can a horse walk get so late."

"The slave doesn't know, the young lady doesn't come back, the slave is in a hurry."

Zhe Keqiu was just a little suspicious, but seeing that Lu Mei didn't say anything, he began to do it in his heart, Zhe Yuelan was aimed at himself, he nodded, "The old man is so good that if you don't say it, you have to suffer some hardships." He instructed a mother-in-law: "Hang her up for me and beat her until she tells the truth." ”

Zhi Keqiu sat sullenly in the study, Lu Mei's screams kept coming in, Zhi Yueru rushed to hear the sound, and said to Zhi Keqiu: "Beat her maid, the third sister must not look good." ”

"Zheyue Lan deliberately harmed me, but she had scruples about not looking good on her face."

"Daddy's anger, what can the third sister do to Daddy?"

"How are you hiding for her, do you know something?"

"The child doesn't know." Zhe Yueru said a few words and withdrew in a panic. She returned to her residence and asked Hu Yanyankang: "Daddy has found out, what should we do?" ”

"Lady, you have something in your heart, so you are suspicious, it's okay, you do it as usual, it's just a bowl of anesthetic."

It was already late at night, and the brows of Lu who was dying of beating drooped, and the mothers-in-law begged for a report from Zheke: "This girl only said that she didn't know, she was beaten so badly, I don't think it's fake." ”

Zhe Ke begged: "Then you can send her back to the room." He wandered around the study worriedly. At this time, Zhe Yueru came in with a bowl of soup: "Daddy, my daughter made a bowl of fresh soup and honored her father." Tomorrow, my daughter will go back to Yanzhou, and I will resign to my father, and I will not be able to pay filial piety to my father in the future. ”

Zhe Keqiu stared at the bowl of soup and looked at it for a while, "You put it here, I'll drink it later." ”

"Daddy, when the soup is cold, ......"

Zhe Keqiu raised his eyes and glared, but Zhe Yueru didn't dare to look at him and lowered his eyes. Zhi Keqiu asked a few more casual questions, and Zhi Yueru retreated in a panic.

For a long time, there was no sound in the study.
