"What about you? Don't you have a solution? Say! Say it! Xiangyan grabbed Zhao Yan's collar and shook it wildly, and there was a slight moisture in her eyes.

Why does she want to cry? Why do you want to cry?

Is it fear of death?

Still afraid of losing?

Xiangyan didn't understand why she was so nervous, she just wanted to seize the opportunity.

Zhao Yan looked down at the woman who was about to cry out while grabbing his collar, the person who usually dared to do this had already been killed and fed to the dog, but now, he felt a little trance, and his momentum was also restrained.

"Why don't you come with me? Come back to Sangzhou with me, stay away from the suffering of this war, be my woman, what you want, don't think about anything, leave everything to me. Zhao Yan said softly, why would he say such a thing? Is it pity for her?

"No, I can't go, everything for mine is here! Tell me the way, please. Xiangyan's voice choked slightly. She can't go! If she leaves, the entire Wuzhou City will be finished.

[How?] Still begging others like a person? It's disgusting! 】

【……】

[Heh, it's so good to leave at this time, leave the burden in front of you, follow this powerful queen, and go back to be a grinding goblin on his bed. 】

【……】

[How?] Don't speak? Intrigued? Enough of friendship games? Want to abandon them? A monster should look like a monster...... What are you doing with this green thing! I don't care about you! Yes! 】

"Xiaoyan, calm down, don't listen to her."

The magic sound disappeared by Canglong's interference, and Canglong advised Xiangyan, hoping that she would not lose her mind in this adversity, and was robbed of her body by the magic sound.

"I'm fine......" Xiangyan responded weakly to Canglong, cold sweat flowing.

As long as she has the intention of giving up, her body will become very heavy, but she always insists that she can't give up until the last moment! Even if there is a real war, we don't know who will kill the deer!

"Bursting the levee!" Zhao Yan said in a deep voice, this is a way to completely annihilate the army without spending a single soldier! But...... The price is also very high!

"Bursting the levee?" Xiangyan repeated.

Outside the west gate is a low-lying depression, there is a river channel flowing out of the East China Sea, the river is turbulent, there is a branch at the mouth of the river, the main stream flows to the East China Sea, the branch is blocked by a levee and flows slowly to Wuzhou City, through the depression outside the city to irrigate the farmland and finally flows into the moat of Wuzhou.

"As long as the troops are under the city, the lord of Xiangcheng can send people to break the embankment and annihilate the enemy army without blood."

"No! When the levee breaks, the people of the villages outside the city will be ruined! On the pavement! The farmland was also destroyed! If the river is turbulent and washes away the walls of Wuzhou City! It may also flood the entire city of Wuzhou! After the flooding, if the plague is rampant, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

"This is not something you should consider, this is the matter of the Lord of Xiangcheng, this method can solve his danger, it depends on how he measures it or not! What you think about is also right, after the embankment bursts, the flood will be raging, the entire agriculture of Wuzhou City will be destroyed, there is no hope of agricultural revival within a few years, famine, and plague will follow one after another, so, you follow me back to Sangzhou, this method I will send my cronies to send it for you, you don't have to think about anything, just follow me. ”

It's a poisonous ploy! This note, although it can solve the urgent need, but in the future! Wuzhou will be slaughtered!

"Why do you care so much about me? I don't know you, I was just entrusted by the Lord of Xiangcheng, and now I'm going back to restore my life, so don't let Zhao Gongzi say goodbye! After Xiangyan finished speaking, she turned around and ran, her brows were tightly locked, and she was very anxious in her heart!

This is a small way to lose a big one! But after all, it's a solution! She wanted to go back immediately to discuss with everyone, and send troops in advance, but the method Zhao Yan said was to break the embankment again, and she was in a dilemma!

"Wait!" Zhao stretched out his hand to grab Xiangyan, but he just grabbed her sleeve.

"Tear~"

He didn't catch Xiangyan, but ripped off one of her sleeves.

"Young master." Han Rui watched from a distance, but he could still hear what they were saying, and he came over when he saw Xiangyan leaving.

Zhao Yan looked sad, looking at the sleeve in his hand blankly, not noticing that Han Rui was talking to him at all.

"What a clever plan the young master! It is a matter of time before Li Fen breaks through Wuzhou City, rather than let them fire and then Li Fen is the master of Wuzhou City, it is better to break the embankment and flood Li Fen, and then Wuzhou is exhausted, our army can take Wuzhou effortlessly after breaking through Suzhou, and it will be more than one stone! The lowly five-body who admires the young master's conspiracy is thrown to the ground! ”

"Hmm...... Hmm......" Zhao Yan heard what Han Rui said, and responded with a smile, Han Rui was right, he was indeed thinking about how to help Xiangyan retreat from the enemy from the perspective of their gains, take Xiangyan away, and the lord of Xiangcheng broke the embankment and retreated from the enemy, things should have developed like this.

But...... She is gone, unwilling to go back with him, the city lord breaks the embankment, what will happen to her? Killed by the rebels? Drowned in a flood? Or do you die of the plague?

Either way! He won't allow it! He wants her alive! He wants to be able to see her anytime and anywhere!

"Han Rui! Whatever the method, bring that woman back! Zhao Yan's face was gloomy, and his voice did not carry a trace of emotion.

"Young master? The top priority is to return to Sangzhou immediately, the battle of the lord in Wuzhou is nearing the end, after taking Lingzhou, we can send troops to Suzhou! Young Master...... Yes, sir! Han Rui bowed down and persuaded, and when he looked up at Zhao Yan, the look in his eyes like a dead thing made him tremble! The majestic momentum overwhelmed him, that was a natural king! He could only bow his head and obey.

Xiangyan ran hard, through the crowd, through the market, leaving a brief shadow in the eyes of passers-by.

The situation is urgent, and the stakes are high! She can't care about avoiding people's eyes and ears anymore!

……

Dock.

Zhong Liyao watched the people on the street mercilessly.

Tomorrow, will the people here be as happy and laughing as they are now?

Since Wuzhou City changed hands to Xiangyan succeeded to the throne, Wu Zhibo cooperated with Ziying to reform the legal system, abolished the laws left by Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Sichuan, collected the laws of all dynasties, melted the thoughts of all the sons, took its essence, discarded its dross, and made a unique legal system, and the people applauded when they saw the new law!

It's just that there is one thing that makes people feel uncomfortable!

This is the equality system between men and women proposed by Ziying! And cancel the husband as the wife in the three outlines!

The low status of women is common sense in the hearts of the world! Even most women themselves engrave this point in their hearts!

They are born inferior! Just to pass on the lineage! The words of the matchmaker of the parents, marry the chicken with the chicken, marry the dog with the dog.

In order to change this situation, Ziying and Wu Zhibo are very busy! Although the results are minimal! But it does improve somewhat!

You can also see some unmarried women coming out in groups to shop and laugh!

A few days ago, a drunk dragged his wife to the street to beat and scold, and Tian Shaoqian immediately led someone to put him in prison! The reason is only because he is drunk and beats his own wife!

These things! Except for Wuzhou City, unheard of! See the unseen!

"Lord Yao, the ship is here." Wang Zhen reminded that he spent a lot of money on the black market to find a ferryman, and the ferryman would not have come out of the boat at night! But! Money can make ghosts grind!

Zhong Liyao nodded, turned around and entered the boat, Wang Zhen following behind.

"Let's go!" The ferryman sang happily, humming a little song by the way, although there were only two passengers in the canopy boat, but he was very happy! These two masters gave twenty taels of silver! That's as much as he pulls 400 passengers!

The boat and Wuzhou City were getting farther and farther away, and Zhong Liyao looked back at the dock, and the people coming and going were still crowded, just like the first time! That fleeting figure suddenly appeared in his eyes! Then disappear into the crowd!

Xiao Zhao!

Zhong Liyao walked quickly to the stern, he was watching! Will that figure ever appear? Look, look, look, until there is only a shadow of a spark left......

Wang Zhen watched all this silently, although he wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say...... In the end, I could only watch quietly.

"Guest officer, the sea is cool on the autumn night! You better go back to the tent, this trip to Huizhou, it takes two days and two nights, if the guest officer doesn't bring enough things, you can buy it when you arrive at Wuhui Port tomorrow night, if you feel cold, the old man still has a few gourd shochu! The old man at the ferryman saw that Zhong Liyao had been in the stern of the boat for a long time! I was afraid that he would get sick, so I could only persuade him.

Zhong Liyao turned a deaf ear, still indifferently looking at the direction of Wuzhou City, where he could no longer see anything.

Wang Zhen said: "Uncle, then bring me a gourd." ”

"Okay." The old ferryman walked into the pengli, took out a scoop of gourd from a wooden box and threw it to Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhen took it and opened the gourd stopper, sniffed it, and the fragrance overflowed! Tasted it! Lips and teeth!

And one more word!

Violent!

"What wine! Uncle, this wine is good! How much? I bought this gourd wine. Wang Zhen asked, this is completely different from their northern wine!

"Hahahaha~ No money~ This is made by my daughter, the guest officer said okay, my daughter will be satisfied!" The ferryman laughed.

Who knew that Wang Zhen said seriously: "Then how can it be done!" How can I drink your wine for nothing! Is two taels of silver enough? ”

Wang Zhen took out two taels of silver and stuffed them into the ferryman's hand, and then drank a few more sips, dripping with joy!

"Hahaha~ Thank you so much for this son!" The old ferryman smiled and rowed the boat and thanked him.

At this time, Zhong Liyao got up, walked into the canopy boat, snatched the gourd in Wang Zhen's hand, and drank it in a big gulp!

Singing when you get is gone,

Sentimental and hateful.

Today there is wine and today there is drunk,

Tomorrow's sorrow comes, tomorrow's sorrow.

……

When Xiangyan rushed to the Ma Yu Inn to change her clothes and rush back to the City Lord's Mansion, everyone gathered in the council hall with a frown and a heavy heart.

"Lord, where have you been? It's a big deal! Wu Zhibo was the first to speak.

"What's wrong? So flustered? ”

Big things are not good? Is there anything worse than Yunyang City sending troops ahead of schedule?
