A year ago.

The black hands of the court were pervasive, and Emperor Han fell to the bottom of the holy vein, and life and death were gone.

The north is a big trouble for the hidden dragon, as long as the northern border is safe and sound, unwilling to return to the court, obey his hidden dragon's command, the hidden dragon will be unable to sleep and eat for a day.

Where you lie down, how can you tolerate others?

Qianlong was not worried about such a huge force left by Emperor Han.

As far as he is concerned, the best choice is to let this group of old subordinates who used to be Emperor Han disappear completely!

As a result, the dragon began to plot a plan to assassinate the higher-ups in the North.

He wanted to split the Northern Imperial Army one by one, so that this group of people would kill each other and pay a heavy price in the end.

Soon.

The strategy of the hidden dragon has begun to bear fruit, and in the north, there is a faint set off a lot of storms.

First of all, the contradiction between Zhan and Ge led to many contradictions between Yuntai Pavilion and Lingdi Pavilion, and even turned against each other for a time.

Then the envoys of the Eight Directions left the northern border and went to their respective territories, never to turn back.

Then the people in the north were panicked, and many veterans and high-ranking soldiers left one after another.

The north has become an empty shell.

Many people even lost their lives in the chaos and became lonely ghosts.

This farce lasted until a year later.

Zhan and Ge are trying to maintain the stormy Northern Imperial Army, which will collapse at any time, and strive to maintain its existence

Until a certain day.

A special call came in.

That's the person they've been dreaming of.

But in the first sentence, that person wanted all the Northern Imperial Army to be disbanded!

In the end, fortunately, the Northern Imperial Army, which had been struggling to maintain for a whole year, was inevitably fragmented in the end.

Zhan Hege eventually abandoned the Northern Imperial Army.

All the old subordinates of Emperor Han have since run away from home and scattered all over the world.

And Zhan and Ge are missing.

Emperor Han knew in his heart that disbanding the imperial army in the north was a necessary and helpless measure.

There have already been too many people who have sacrificed themselves in order to hold on to the imperial army in the north, and they can't go on like this.

One day, he will make a comeback, lead the imperial army with thousands of troops and horses, reign over the world, and set foot on Beijing with iron hoofed horses!

Where there is life, there is hope.

Save the living force and make a comeback when the coming day comes!

The city lord of Moxi, Lin Yuezhi, is the first stop of Emperor Han.

......

"Brother Emperor, where are we going now?"

Xiaoluo pouted, holding the only rock sugar gourd in his hand.

In front of you, there are lofty mountains and mountains, 100,000 mountains.

As far as the eye can see, there are endless mountain ranges.

"Searching for an old man."

"Who is the deceased? Is it called an old man? ”

Xiaoluo, with her vocabulary, obviously couldn't understand the word.

"Yes, very old man."

Emperor Han opened his mouth slightly, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.

It's been a long time ago.

Later, the parties were transferred and did not see each other for many years.

Southwest.

100,000 mountains, stretching high mountains.

Emperor Han took Xiaoluo and took a dilapidated bus, I don't know how many mountains and cliff lanes I have climbed.

Finally, he slowly stopped in a deserted place.

"This guest, you have arrived at the place you are going, I really don't understand, sir, you don't look like an ordinary person, what is worth your journey to this deep mountain and old forest? Could it be that there are still your relatives in this poor and remote place? ”

The bus driver jokingly opened his mouth.

In the car, there were only two people, Emperor Han and Xiaoluo.

If he hadn't seen Emperor Han's generosity, he wouldn't have been willing to send this eccentric young man to this place.

Emperor Han didn't reply, but led Xiaoluo out of the car.

The bus driver muttered, "What a weird guy." ”

"The man is tall and handsome, and the little girl is very beautiful, like a little porcelain doll, and I don't know why I was lucky enough to run to this place."

"Forget it, let's go back quickly, if it's dark, I'm afraid this place won't be able to get out! Ouch, my crow's mouth, that thing won't fall on me! ”

"I have advised this young man many times, but he still insists on going his own way, God, you must not blame my head for his death!"

The bus driver quickly turned around and left the place where birds don't poop.

Xiaoluo looked in front of him, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Except for fewer people, there is nothing else bad.

"Brother Emperor, where is this?"

"Bixi Village."

"Huh? Does this mean the same thing as our valley? ”

"Almost."

In the distance, there was a small village.

At the door stood a few rickety old men, holding baskets, pouring grain, and feeding chickens and ducks.

Emperor Han took Xiaoluo by the hand and walked towards Bixi Village.

Several old people at the door saw Emperor Han coming over, as if they had seen a ghost, they pounced, and instantly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"Spare your life, don't kill me!"

The expressions on the faces of several old people did not look like they were pretending, but they were really scared from the bottom of their hearts.

Emperor Han looked at the expressions of several people, and his expression frowned slightly.

He was here for the first time, how could these old men know him?

"You know me?"

Emperor Han asked.

Several old men raised their heads and stared at Emperor Han a few times, all shaking their heads.

"Then why are you so scared when you see me?"

Several old men looked at each other, looking at each other's faces.

"You, aren't you one of theirs?"

"They? Who are they? ”

Emperor Han opened his mouth in confusion.

Seeing this, several old men breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, "It seems that it is not their people." ”

An old man hurriedly got up and looked at Emperor Han worriedly: "Young man, why did you come to such a desolate place?" Hurry up and leave, if those people come, it won't be good! ”

"Yes, young man, we are old and have trouble with our hands and feet, and we can't escape from this place. There's a little doll next to you, so get out of here with her! Once it's dark, you really can't leave! ”

Emperor Han could see the sincere look in the old man's eyes, and their words were not deceiving.

They really want Emperor Han to leave quickly, so there is really something hidden here.

"I'm here to find someone."

"Who? Once you've found him, get out of the way! It's too dangerous here! ”

"Liu Yuanxu."

After hearing the name, several people looked at each other a few times and shook their heads.

"There is no one named Liu Yuanxu here. Young man, hurry up and leave with the little doll. ”

Emperor Han looked at a few old men.

"Thank you for telling me about the danger, but today, I won't leave without finding this person."

As he spoke, Emperor Han led Xiaoluo and walked into the village.

Several old men sighed and looked helplessly at the back of Emperor Han who was far away.

Along the way, many people saw Emperor Han holding Xiaoluo, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly ran to the house and locked the house tightly.

Emperor Han frowned and looked all the way over.

He found that there were no young adults in this village, and the youngest was an elderly man over 60 years old.

It's a veritable village for the elderly.

Why were they so afraid when they saw him?

Emperor Han's doubts became more and more intense.

Xiao Luo was also a little frightened, looking at the expressions of those old men who regarded them as demons.

"Brother Emperor, why do they look at me like that? Have we done something wrong? ”

Emperor Han shook his head and touched Xiaoluo's head.

"No, it has nothing to do with you."

"Someone else should be at the root of all this."

The village is not large, and there are only a few dozen households.

Soon, Emperor Han walked around and did not find the person he was looking for.

Not far away, he saw an old man on crutches, with his back to them.

Emperor Han walked up.

"Old man, are all the people in the village here?"

Hearing Emperor Han's voice, the old man trembled with fright, and his crutches fell to the ground.

He turned around tremblingly, his old face as pale as the bark of a dry tree, and his white beard swaying.

The old man folded his hands and trembled to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Seeing this, Emperor Han directly supported the old man.

"Old man, I'm not a bad person, I'm not in the same group as those people."

Although Emperor Han didn't know exactly what was going on, he had to find a way to get close to these old people.

"Really, really?"

The old man listened to Emperor Han's words, and a big stone hanging in his heart slowly fell to the ground.

"Then you, what are you here for?"

The old man's words stammered, obviously not fully trusting Emperor Han in front of him.

"I'm here to find an old friend."

"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for? ”

"Liu Yuanxu."

Suddenly, the old man's expression changed slightly.

"You're also here to find Liu Yuanxu? Since the beginning of this month, you are the fifth group of people who have come to Liu Yuanxu! But we don't have anyone named Liu Yuanxu here at all! ”

The old man said, a sad expression on his face.

"When those people heard that we didn't know Liu Yuanxu, they thought we were deliberately hiding it and wanted not to hand over Liu Yuanxu as a person. But our village is a village surnamed Wang, where is there a person surnamed Liu! Those people did not believe, so they ......"

"Hey! This group of people is, they are beasts!! ”

After saying that, the old man's emotions became extremely excited.

He clenched his fists angrily, if he could be thirty years younger, he would definitely beat this group of gangsters hard!

"Old man, don't panic, you speak slowly, I can help you."

Emperor Han stared at the old man, and the anger in his heart was slowly rising.

For these things, the responsibility on his shoulders made it impossible for him to stand idly by.

What's more, this matter is related to Liu Yuanxu, and it seems that many people know that Liu Yuanxu lives in this place.

Emperor Han knew Liu Yuanxu's identity, and he also knew why he was secretly targeted by so many people.

"You ...... Alas, it doesn't hurt to talk about it, this matter is too painful in my heart, and I want to find someone to talk to! Come and talk in my room. ”

The old man's stiff body, re-leaning on crutches, walked towards the house.

Emperor Han led Xiaoluo into the house, which was an extremely poor house, with nothing but some living utensils, beds and quilts.

Not even, there is even electricity.

"Everything goes back to half a year ago, when an old man suddenly came to Bixi Village, who was a little older and not much different from us."
