This Hengzhou city is beautiful, quiet like a painting, but it makes people feel too ethereal, no matter where it looks like a city, more like... It is known as the god capital of fairyland by the people.

On a quiet night, under the bright moonlight, Zhang Youtao and Ji Yu sat on the eaves, just like that night. It's just that this time it's the state of mind.

The two of them looked into the distance where they couldn't see clearly, and their eyes straightened.

"Where will you go in the future?" Ji Yu asked suddenly.

Zhang Youtao thought for a moment and shook her head, "I don't know." ”

She wanted to go back to Zhangjiacun now, and she left resolutely, thinking that she could change the whole world by herself, but finally found that all this was a joke.

She really hasn't thought about where to go in the future, she may stay in Zhangjia Village, she may find a place to live an ordinary life, or she may stop and go, and even she herself doesn't know where to go.

"What about you?" Zhang Youtao asked rhetorically, this time she obviously felt that the relationship between Ji Yu and Xiliang had changed, although most of the time it was Ji Yu who took the initiative.

Ji Yu pulled out a smile, which was particularly bright in the moonlight, "Of course I'm with you." ”

Zhang Youtao's eyes were dazzled, and there was only one thought in her heart, what good things did Xiliang, a dog man, did in his last life to be loved by such a beauty, it is really not poor.

At that time, when Ji Yu said this, she didn't think that one day they would be separated, and it wasn't until a long, long time later that she realized that there was no banquet in this world.

"Be brave if you like." Zhang Youtao had five flavors of grains in her heart, and she talked nonsense casually, and even she didn't know what she was talking about.

But after finishing speaking, she felt that there was nothing wrong with those bright and seductive eyes. A woman like Ji Yu, when she meets someone she likes, she can't take the initiative without taking the initiative.

After tasting the daughter red in the wine bag, Zhang Youtao's throat tightened, her eyes turned red instantly, and she coughed violently, "Ahem, cough, cough!" ”

She suddenly remembered Jiang Yiling's dog man, there had been no one since he finished eating, he couldn't just run away now!

Jiang Yiling didn't run, but after that day of unhappiness, it was like a barrier had been raised between the two, and they didn't care about each other. Even the most wooden Xi Liang sensed this embarrassment, let alone others.

Hundreds of miles away, the place separated by two cities is Zhangjia Village, and the next road can only ride a horse or a car, thinking about the pain that is still fresh in his memory, Zhang Youtao decisively chose to take a carriage.

Therefore, Ji Yu, a lazy thing, also climbed up, sleepy in the carriage as if he had no bones, and still had a dog's tail grass in his mouth, shaking with the bumps of the carriage, and the people who watched were dazzled.

Zhang Youtao kicked her angrily, "If you don't go to accompany Xiliang, what are you doing in front of me?" ”

Ji Yu lifted his eyelids, but he was also extremely reluctant, "He was angry." ”

Zhang Youtao was happy, no matter what it was to find like-minded friends, it was an exciting thing, but she was even more curious, "What did you do that people and gods are angry about, and you actually made Xiliang's stuffy gourd angry?" ”

As a killer, he has long broken off his seven emotions and six desires, and being able to be like Ji Yu and Xiliang is already a blessing in misfortune, even if he dies because of the enemy in the future, it is not too sad.

Ji Yu rolled his eyes, hugged his chest and closed his eyes, and did not continue the topic.

After five days of running around day and night, I finally returned to the familiar and nostalgic Zhangjia Village, which seemed to have no change, but it could not coincide with the place in my memory.

The sound of horses' hooves pulled her thoughts back, and the exhaustion of running for a long time made her brain chaotic at the moment, and she couldn't wait to find a place to sleep.

"I'll spend the night in town tonight, and I'll send you home tomorrow." In the dark night, Jiang Yiling's words blew into her ears along with the wind.

Zhang Youtao shuddered all over, and her jaw acquiesced. At this time, the whole village is quiet, even the dogs are asleep, and going back will only cause some trouble, so it is better to find a place to rest earlier.

There is a small town next to Zhangjia Village, not big, only one inn, when the store was woken up, the face was clearly written with the words "do not disturb the living", or there has been no business for a long time, and the cool breeze blows, which looks particularly desolate.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man, with a big belly, and his big dark and greasy face dangled in front of their eyes, as if he hadn't woken up yet, and his tone was full of displeasure, "What are you doing at night?" Sharpen or stay in the hotel? I don't know if I ask for directions. ”

"Stay in the hotel." Xiliang spit out two words indifferently.

The shopkeeper's whole body was excited, and he woke up from his dream in an instant, and looked at the five big living people outside the door, as if he was looking at a silver coin, and let go of the bloated body, and his voice was sharp and loud, "Oops! Ladies and gentlemen, please come in. ”

The faint candlelight radiated through the lantern, and the inside of the house was not much brighter than the outside, on the contrary, the stuffy musty smell in the house made people's chests stuffy, if it weren't for such a small town, I am afraid that Zhang Youtao's first reaction would be to think that this was a black shop. Sogou Library

The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed, and the smile pulled the fat on his face, and the candlelight in his hand was particularly terrifying, and he looked at several people.

"How many guest officers, how many rooms do you want?"

"Four." Without waiting for Xiliang to decide, Jiang Yiling said directly.

Since he opened his mouth, others didn't dare to have any opinions, according to Jiang Yiling's meaning, the shopkeeper directly took out a bunch of keys and led them upstairs.

The wooden ladder that has fallen into disrepair 'creaks' when stepped on it, as if with a little force, the wooden ladder will fall apart.

The further you go, the more dust drifts up where the candlelight shines, and cobwebs occupy every corner, and if you don't pay attention, you will run into them. If it weren't for the fact that they had no other choice in the middle of the night, or if they didn't have the energy to continue tossing, they would have turned around and left the moment they entered the door.

Zhang Youtao cautiously glanced at Jiang Yiling's expression, except for the corners of her mouth, there were no other suspicious changes, but she didn't know how to judge. The pampered prince has fallen to such a point, I'm afraid no one will dare to believe it!

"There is only one inn in the whole town, and you are lucky, there are still rooms left, if you came yesterday, there would not be so many rooms!" The shopkeeper walked in front with a round belly, and he didn't hesitate to talk to them.

Exhaustion covered each of their faces, and they didn't even bother to speak, let alone disassemble.

Maybe there is a comparison, when she saw the inside of the room, Zhang Youtao actually had a trace of relief in her heart, at least it wasn't so dirty!

She and Ji Yu slept in one room, and the rest of the people had one room for each person, and they didn't know what kind of urine sex it was, and the three big men had to sleep separately. No matter what she thought, the shopkeeper's face was smiling anyway.

Xu is a familiar place and even the breath is safe, she fell asleep when she went to bed, she didn't think about the chasing soldiers at all, she had already fled here, even if she was caught back, she wouldn't lose anything.

Far away from the capital, the palace of Minghuang was not as impassioned as before, and the civil and military officials in the hall were silent, and even trembled all over, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

The man in the high position seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight, his temples were as white as snow, and the eyes that once flashed emotionless were now only compassion, and he silently looked at every courtier in the hall, and finally sighed deeply.

Syllable!

The emperor threw the urgent report sent by the border pass in the center of the main hall, and the content of just a few pages would make people unable to calm down, but no one dared to pick it up now.

The emperor's voice sounded without anger and self-authority, "Before the reinforcements arrived, Xiliang broke through two more cities five days ago, you Aiqing have something to say." ”

As the words fell, the entire hall was quiet, and the longer this silence continued, the more angry the emperor's heart grew.

Sure enough, the next moment, the man in the high position stood up with a 'rub', glared angrily, and clicked a few times with his fingers in the air, with a hideous expression, "What am I raising you for?" No one can use it at a critical time, a bunch of waste! ”

The civil and military officials suddenly panicked, hurriedly knelt down in their official uniforms, and shouted in unison, "The ministers deserve death, and I hope the emperor will calm his anger!" ”

As everyone knows, this incident made the emperor even more depressed, and he was able to fight in the hall for a little thing on weekdays, but now he really encountered something and had nothing to say.

This scene is slapping the emperor in the face, telling the whole world that there is no one in Dayuan, even if they are occupied and there is no city, they don't even have a general who is willing to lead the army.

Suddenly, a eunuch hurriedly trotted with his head buried and crawled in the center of the main hall, "Your Majesty, General Xiao is asking to see you outside the hall." ”

These words were like a life-saving straw, which made everyone in the hall breathe a sigh of relief, even the emperor who was still in pain just now showed a trace of joy, and his excited words trembled, "Let him come in!" ”

The eunuch should go down and crawl out to let the life-saving straw in.

When Xiao Meng appeared in front of everyone, he was embarrassed, obviously he had just rushed back and hadn't even cleaned up, and the dust on his body was incompatible with the main hall.

He knelt down with his hands clasped into fists, "Meet the emperor, the minister insulted the emperor's order, and never brought the six princes and Miss Zhang back." ”

They are so cunning that I am no match at all. Xiao Meng couldn't help but slander in his heart, it was also cruel to be able to make a person willing to admit his incompetence.

The emperor didn't care about the unruly sixth son at all now, and only talked about the current predicament, "It's okay!" Presumably, General Xiao knew that the border was in an emergency, and I recalled you overnight for this reason. ”

"What does the emperor command?" Xiao Meng thought for a while, and added, "The minister will not dishonor the emperor's order." ”

These words made the emperor's heart, which had been depressed for a long time, finally get a little comfort, and the gloom between his eyebrows also dispersed a little, "Okay! I command you to lead the three armies to set off at once and recover the lost territory. ”

"If the minister accepts the order, he will definitely take back the lost land and live up to the emperor's grace." Xiao Meng did not hesitate at all, and responded directly.
