"This prince accompanied the sixth princess back to the capital to mourn, I don't know why the young general didn't let me go?"

Ouyang Shaoqian didn't answer, but turned around and went down the city tower, Xiao Qian was angry when he saw this, but he held back the irritability in his heart.

When Su Jingchen led the men and horses into the city, he was afraid that he would not be able to take a small Zhuozhou?

Xiao Qian thought about it in his heart, thinking that he was nine out of ten.

At this time, a dark guard rushed to the front of the formation.

"Lord Shizi! Lord Shizi!! ”

Seeing this, Xiao Qian's whole body began to tremble inexplicably, and a sense of fear pressed his nerves, spreading around his body little by little.

Seeing that the secret guard didn't care about the image at all, the sixth princess looked back at Xiao Qian, and there was more disdain in her eyes: "Why, can't you even manage a subordinate?" ”

Xiao Qian was flustered because of his panic, his eyes stared at the people who crawled over, and he didn't hear what the sixth princess was saying.

"Lord Shizi! Our army is buried in the tunnels! ”

The Dark Guard threw himself on the dusty ground, crying and grabbing the ground.

Xiao Qian's body shook uncontrollably when he heard this, and he almost fell off his horse.

"All buried?!" The sixth princess had no time to take care of Xiao Qian, so she hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and rushed to the secret guard in three or two steps, "That's 60,000 people!" ”

The snot and tears of the secret guard's crying were mixed on his face: "Only part of it was buried, but the tunnel was blown up, and the air wave was partly lifted, and many people in the back took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the elites were all in front, and the subordinates really couldn't catch so many people who escaped!" ”

Xiao Qian listened, pursed his lips slightly, and fell off the horse's back as soon as his eyes were closed.

"Lord Shizi! Lord Shizi!! ”

Cai Sang was originally behind, afraid that he would cause chaos when he stepped forward, but Xiao Gan fell off his horse, and he couldn't go over in time to catch the person, so he could only hold Xiao Qian in his arms and shake it all at once.

At the same time, King Xiao on the outskirts of the city also found that the talisman he was carrying was missing, and then, like Xiao Qian, he saw a secret guard crawling and falling into his courtyard.

"Lord Wang! Oh no! ”

"But the prince has led troops into the city?!" King Xiao also thought that although the timing was not right, the army had sufficient food and grass equipment, and even if the troops were sent now, there should be no mistakes.

Who knew that the secret guard was crying with a sad face, and wailed: "The 60,000 troops that the prince ordered to enter the city through the tunnel have all been wiped out!" ”

"How is this possible?!" King Xiao slapped the table and scolded, "How can 60,000 people be buried in that tunnel?!" ”

"It's not just buried!" The secret guard cried and told King Xiao what had happened, which was no different from the version Xiao Qian had heard.

Not to mention that father and son are connected, after listening to the words of the secret guard, King Xiao and Xiao Gan reacted the same, and fell down as soon as their eyes were closed.

The two main backbones on the palace side have fallen, and the secret guards really have no choice but to listen to the words of the six princesses for the time being, and take the rest of the men and horses to camp outside the city, standing by in place.

The governor's mansion was also in chaos.

First of all, the account room of the mansion exploded inexplicably, and the outer walls of a series of houses along the account room were shaken and cracked, and I saw that all kinds of rockery pavilions in the Zhizhou Mansion were damaged.

Jiang Zhizhou was already worried about the emperor's collapse, and now he is even more like a headless fly.

"Father, this..."Jiang Yan has more or less known about some of his father's small actions in secret recently, and he can probably guess it. At this moment, the mansion was robbed, and I only felt that it was King Xiao who retaliated against the Zhizhou Mansion.

"This femme fatale didn't let us go when she arrived." Jiang Zhizhou was half happy and half worried.

The good thing is that King Xiao's army failed to enter the city from the Zhizhou Mansion, which can dispel the court's suspicion of him, but looking at this devastation, Jiang Zhizhou feels sorry for the silver in his pocket.

Jiang Zhizhou suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly sent people out to investigate, and sure enough, he got the news that King Xiao had lost more than half of his army.

"It's over, it's really going to be over." Jiang Zhizhou slumped on the chair, looked at his son in despair and said, "King Xiao must think that I did it, thinking that I had already discovered the secret way, so I put him along." ”

Jiang Yan looked at his father in a daze, and thought for a long time before he understood what was going on.

In the past, Su Xueniang was in charge of the account room, and she must have dug it out a long time ago, and this matter has nothing to do with her.

Xu thought of the same thing, and the father and son suddenly looked at each other.

"Crisp Niang!"

For a while, Su Niang has been in the account room, and now there is a mess in the house, but this woman has not even shown her face.

Jiang Zhizhou immediately took heavy steps, and walked towards Su Niang's bedroom at the fastest speed he could use in his life.

After seeing the maid he gave to Su Niang, Jiang Zhizhou hurriedly asked, "Where is your master?" ”

"The slave and maid don't know, the master went to the account room at noon, and he hasn't come back yet." The maid looked dazed, thinking that Jiang Zhizhou was worried about the safety of Su Niang.

Jiang Zhizhou took two steps back when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Right now, there is only one person who can save my Jiang family from fire and water." ”

Jiang Yan saw his father's solemn expression, and didn't dare to ask more, so he just followed behind him.

Not long after, the whole Jiang Mansion disguised themselves and left Zhuozhou as a wealthy businessman and went straight to the capital.

Jiang Zhizhou also wrote a long letter earnestly, leaving a small servant to send to King Xiao outside the Zhuozhou Pass, only to say that there was a spy in the house and blew up the tunnel.

But when King Xiao received the letter, he only felt that Jiang Zhizhou was suspected of wanting to cover up, so he angrily ordered the guards to cut off the head of the little guy who sent the letter and return it to Jiang Zhizhou.

Later, I got the message that the governor's capital was empty.

When one side fled and the two sides were stuck, in the beautiful landscape of the border city, I saw a sturdy man riding a horse, following behind a graceful woman, trying to persuade each other.

"I didn't mean to mention Aunt Hu, didn't you just say it when you asked?" Uncle Zhong deliberately suppressed his breathy voice and muttered cautiously.

Xin Yulan walked in front and turned back hatefully: "If I ask you, you will say?" You still say that in such detail? Isn't this angry with me? ”

"Eh, I really didn't want to be mad at you."

Uncle Zhong lowered his head and cautiously followed behind Xin Yulan, thinking that she would be able to dissipate her anger by walking for a while, but who knew that this woman was like being beaten with chicken blood, and she walked faster and faster.

Seeing that her steps were becoming more and more unstable due to the pain, Uncle Zhong finally couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped forward and dragged the person up and held him in his arms.

Xin Yulan was caught off guard and dragged onto the horse, and screamed in fright, causing a commotion in the bushes on one side.

A burlap bag tumbled down the dirt slope behind the tree and landed in front of the horse, so frightened that Uncle Zhong quickly pulled the reins.

Both of them were clubbed in front of the sacks.

"What is this?" Xin Yulan looked at it fixedly, and found that something seemed to be moving in the sack, so he buried his head in Uncle Zhong's arms, and didn't dare to take a second look.

Uncle Zhong can be regarded as a person who has seen the world, and at a glance, he knows that there is a person in the sack.

There was a gurgling sound from the bushes, and I couldn't really hear it, but I could feel the anger in it.

Uncle Zhong didn't have time to think, so he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, threw the sack on the horse's back, and the two had to sit closer again.

Fortunately, Xin Yulan has a delicate physique, otherwise the three of them would not be able to run away from each other.

This horse is a good breed in the Western Regions that Ouyang Shaoqian specially sought for Uncle Zhong, and it is not ambiguous to run. Uncle Zhong looked back and was relieved to find that a group of reckless men with curly beards who had come out of the bushes were far behind him.

I don't know how long I ran, but seeing that I was almost in front of me where the guards of the city tower could see, the two of them reined in their horses, Uncle Zhong turned over, and then supported Xin Yulan with one hand and helped her to fall to the ground steadily.

The person in the sack may have been jolting for a while, and he had lost his strength, and he didn't move at this time.

Uncle Zhong protected Xin Yulan behind him, leaned over to the sack quite defensively, and ripped open the rope that was tightly tied to the mouth of the bag.

"Master Hou?!"

When he saw a familiar face gagged and put in a sack, Uncle Zhong immediately carried the sack off the horse's back with his hands and feet and dragged the person out of the sack.

The Protector has obviously suffered a lot of torture, his hair is messy at the moment, his face is yellow and thin, as if he has experienced a long time of eating and sleeping in the open.

"Ah Zhong, is this the Marquis of the Protectorate?" Xin Yulan had seen the appearance of the Marquis of the Protector when she was shuttling in the homes of dignitaries and nobles in her early years, but now that this person looked miserable, she didn't dare to recognize each other rashly for a while.

"Yes, this is my lord." Uncle Zhong let the Hou Ye lean in his arms, took out a whistle from his cuff, and when the cry sounded, a silver pigeon flew immediately.

Xin Yulan watched Uncle Zhong's neat operation and sent the letter out, knowing that this was no longer a good time to visit the mountains and rivers.

She tugged at Uncle Zhong's clothes and whispered, "Why don't we go back to Zhuozhou first." ”

"Never." Uncle Zhong knew that the Marquis of the Protector disappeared after going to Zhuozhou, which means that Zhuozhou must be a puddle of troubled water, and if he rushes back at this moment, wouldn't he be caught in the net?

Xin Yulan's heart moved, and he also knew that he was not thoughtful enough, so he said that he was looking for an inn to live here now.

Then he took out the objects of the woman's makeup from the baggage and carefully described them to the protector, which can be regarded as a disguise.

But who knows, even so, the two still haven't been able to find a place to live, Guy needs an identity document to stay in the inn, where do they go to find a protector?

Fortunately, they were not far from the capital, Ning Xiang learned of this, and took the risk to spread the message in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city, but in a day and a half, someone from the capital came to find Uncle Zhong and his party, and at the same time brought a forged document.

Xu Qingyuan was an idle person, he set off as soon as he received the task, and he didn't delay for a long time, and he hired an ox cart on the road, and after meeting with Uncle Zhong, the ox cart also arrived.

"It's still the young lady's thoughtfulness." Seeing the token of "Fan Dai" presented by Xu Darttou, Uncle Zhong was relieved.

I thought that the war in Zhuozhou was tight, and he and Xin Yulan would have to be in the forest for a few more days, but he was nothing, but Xin Yulan was a woman, and it was not suitable to be in the deep mountains and old forests.

Xu Qing smiled happily, and a mouthful of white teeth lined with dark face shone brightly: "If it weren't for the master looking for me, I would still be thinking about asking for help." Damn, I'm suffocating my brothers these days. ”

The Protector Marquis was still in a coma, and after a few people entered the capital with fake documents, Uncle Zhong had to find a familiar doctor, who was raised by the Protector Mansion himself.

Under Ning Xiang's arrangement, several people lived in the small attic behind the rouge shop, and the bungalow in the courtyard under the attic still lived in the dart masters who Ning Xiang had rescued before, which was very safe.

Mrs. Hou got the news, and hurried to the rouge shop, this always patronized store, turned out to be the daughter-in-law's property, she was also greatly admired, after thinking about it, she felt that it was safer here than in the Hou Mansion.

For this reason, Ah Yan had to stay in the Hou Mansion all the time, pretending that all the Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou were missing.

But fortunately, Ning Xiang felt sorry for him and sent Miao Aya back, and the two of them were fighting, and it did seem that the quiet Hou Mansion in the past was in turmoil. It's also Miaoya's crooked temperament.

Because the body of the protector was damaged, even if he woke up, he was very weak and unable to come forward to preside over the overall situation, Ouyang Shaoqian got angry with his Lao Tzu for the first time, and wrote a letter to "scold" the second old man for being playful.

The letter was read by Uncle Zhong, and there was no sternness in his tone, and he even knelt down for the little master after reading it.

Mrs. Hou leaned back and smiled with a smile, looking at Hou Ye's black face and wanting to get angry but couldn't get out, she laughed angrily.

However, the letter also mentioned that the situation on the border of Zhuozhou was precarious, and there were some things he couldn't take care of. entrusted the second elder to be a matchmaker and held a wedding banquet for Uncle Zhong and Xin Yulan.

Mrs. Hou likes to mix these fun things the most, so she agreed and helped the two of them to register for household registration.

The backyard of the Beijing Pink Dai Rouge Shop is a happy scene.

A group of suspicious characters were also detained outside the gates of the capital at the same time.

"What a businessman, I think you're a spy!"

The soldiers defending the city saw that Jiang Zhizhou had a lot of family members, and after some interrogation, the donkey's lips were not right, Jiang Zhizhou insisted that he was a businessman at first, and later called himself a relative, but he couldn't say who he went to.

After all, he came directly to the Empress Dowager Cui, he can't say that he went to the Empress Dowager, right?

When the two were arguing, it happened that the Queen Mother moved to the city gate, which stabilized the scene.

Jiang Zhizhou also said that he was fortunate to have delivered a letter to the Queen Mother in advance, and seeing the Queen Mother at this moment was like seeing his own mother, and regardless of the fact that all the servants were watching, he even rolled and climbed down in front of the Queen Mother.

"The Queen Mother, save Weichen! This is really unreasonable! ”

The Queen Mother didn't have any impression of Jiang Zhizhou, but she had heard a few ears in the emperor's mouth, and she only knew that she was a character like a wall grass, and she couldn't use it.

"Master Jiang, please get up, the mourning family will be in charge with you."

There is cold and hardness in these words, and there is no temperature, but in Jiang Zhizhou's ears, it is a very reliable guarantee.

There were kneeling people in Wuyang and Wuyang all around, and they didn't even see what the Queen Mother looked like, so they saw that Yi drove back to the imperial city very quickly.

Jiang Zhizhou didn't feel disgusted at all, and hurriedly followed behind, until he reached the gate of the imperial city, and the guards stepped forward and politely stopped people.

"The Queen Mother heard that Jiang Zhizhou was related to Qingyang Bo, so she specially instructed the lower officials to guide the way, and brought the Queen Mother's hand to settle the Zhizhou Mansion."
