Chapter Seventy-One: The Granary Catches Fire

The soldiers under Qingfeng's hands laughed at the emperor of Yanjing for being a seedless, and they made such jokes as soon as they appeared.

The victims who could be relieved by Nangong Yan, as soon as they heard the news, rushed to their military camps, threatening to go into battle to kill the enemy, and not let the people of Xichu underestimate them.

Xue Yu looked at the victims who kept pouring in, and glanced at Nangong Yan in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, this..."

"It's a good thing to open the way, let them come in and sign up, and the people of the west will be of the same mind as us." Nangong Yan was still looking down to study the route of the western city, and he had heard the sound of movement outside early in the morning.

"Yes!"

Xue Yu got the order, walked out directly, and instructed the soldiers outside to arrange for the influx of victims to sign up.

The victims were indignant one by one, they thought that the monarch of Yanjing had abandoned them, but when they saw what they did yesterday, they realized that they were not abandoned.

As soon as the ridicule of the soldiers of Western Chu came into their ears, it aroused the hatred in their hearts for them, since they invaded the western border, they have killed, plundered and looted, and done all kinds of evil, but it is a pity that they have no power to restrain the chicken, and now that someone has come to support them, they naturally want to unite and stand on the side of the Yanjing soldiers.

After studying the road map, it was already evening.

Xue Yu walked in from outside and told him to the victims who had signed up during the day, "The victims of the disaster in the western border, those who can join the combat force, have basically signed up in the barracks, and the old, young, women and children who have no combat effectiveness are also willing to contribute to the fire cooking for the soldiers in the army and take care of the wounded." According to statistics, there are about 10,000 people. ”

Nangong Yan listened carefully and nodded slightly, "Settle them well." Also, in the past two days, let the soldiers practice well, and there is no need to attack and fight for the city for the time being. ”

Xue Yu was stunned, although he didn't understand why he did this, but thinking that as the emperor, he couldn't control the orders he ordered, and he only had doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to bring it up, so he could only nod his head and say yes.

After he walked out, Nangong Yan looked at the smoke wafting from the incense burner in front of him, his eyes darkened little by little, and the boundaries around the city were even more complicated than he imagined. When he was in the palace, he had looked at the map several times, but when he came here yesterday, he realized that the real scene was different from the map.

It is conceivable that during the reign of Emperor Yan Jing for so many years, how negligent was the jurisdiction of the western boundary, and the people in the west did not chat, not only because of the drought, but because of the accumulated grievances accumulated over the years. But they are grateful, yesterday he only asked the soldiers to take out half of the military rations to help the victims, and today they spontaneously organized to sign up for conscription.

Thinking of this, there was a place in his heart that softened a little.

Nangong Yan fled in the first battle, and her passive attitude towards the battle soon reached Yu Qiqi's ears, and she kept asking Ah Jian to pay attention to the battle situation in the western realm.

When Ah Jian told her the truth about what he heard, she had just drunk the fetal pills, but the fetus in her womb still kicked her, she frowned, and a painful look appeared on her face, "This should be his battle strategy." "Qingfeng is just a right-hand man of the King of Western Chu County, how could Nangong Yan be stumped, she believes in Nangong Yan.

"Princess, don't worry, there is good news and bad news." Seeing the painful look on his face, Ah Jian hurriedly said: "The victims of the disaster in the western border have all gone to the barracks to sign up for conscription, so that the emperor's manpower will be stronger. ”

"He knows how to govern the government, but he has just ascended the throne, and he has not done much for the people, and if he often visits the people to inspect them, they will definitely recognize him as a monarch." Yu Qiqi comforted the child in her belly and asked him to kick her less mother.

Seeing that her mind was calm, Ah Jian retreated outside, and as soon as she went out, she was dragged aside by Chu Peiyu and reprimanded her, "What are you talking to the queen mother about, now that her confinement is older, if she is stimulated by your words, there will be three long and two short, and we will be guilty, and the emperor has just left Yanjing City." ”

Ah Jian was a little stunned by his reprimand, but after thinking about it, what he said was indeed right, so he muttered: "But if I don't say it, the queen will also be worried..."

"Next time, just say that the emperor is in the western border, and everything is fine." Chu Peiyu glanced inside and whispered to her.

"I see."

Ah Jian rolled his eyes and hurriedly agreed.

......

As soon as Ning Shenyuan heard that the Western Chu people were attacking the western border, and after Nangong Yan led the troops to go out, he was anxious to return to Yanjing, his family was in Yanjing, and now Gu Xia was also guarding Yanjing City alone, I don't know when the king of Western Chu County would make a move on Yanjing City, he would go back, at least he could help Gu Xia.

Yan Shiqing looked at his anxious look, and thought that Yu Qiqi was alone in the palace, and after hesitating, he found Lin Chaoge.

Lin Chaoge brought a cup of ginseng tea to his room, she wore a twisted gold brocade and silver silk dress, and her hair was twisted into a bun, which was the dress that a wife should have, with a touch of elegance between her delicate eyebrows and eyes.

She sat down in front of him, as if she had guessed what he wanted to say to her, and there was no confusion on her face, but she looked at him fixedly, waiting for her husband to speak.

"Ge'er, I want to go to Yanjing with Brother Ning." He took her hand and put it in his palm, asking for her opinion.

"Brother Qing is not at ease with the Seventh Princess, right?" Like him, she called Yu Qiqi the Seventh Princess.

"She's pregnant, and she's alone in the palace, if something happens, maybe I can help." Yan Shiqing didn't hide his intentions, and later, he explained, "But I just want to help her, I don't want to see her in dire straits." ”

"I understand my husband's intentions. It's just that the person who is against Yanjing is your maternal grandfather, will you be in a dilemma if you go? ”

Lin Chaoge, you care about what happens to others, she only cares about Yan Shiqing the most.

A touch of affection flashed between Yan Shiqing's eyebrows, and he grabbed her hand tighter, "Since he can treat my biological mother like that, and he can treat me so hard, I don't have any pity for him for a long time." ”

Once, he still had some affection for this grandfather who had only met once, but after knowing what he had done, his affection had long since disappeared.

"That's fine, I just want you to come back well and safely." The implication is that he has already promised to go to Yanjing City.

"You are waiting for me in King Yan's mansion."

Yan Shiqing took her into his arms and stroked her arm. Originally, he was afraid that she wouldn't let him go, but he was careful, and she was used to being the most considerate.

When Ning Shenyuan was about to leave to return to Yanjing City, he saw Yan Shiqing also pack his baggage and walked out, and looked at him inexplicably, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'll go back to Yanjing with you." Yan Shiqing decided in a hurry, and he didn't have time to tell him.

"What are you kidding? Yanjing is in danger now, and now you have just gotten married. Ning Shenyuan reprimanded him a few words, he didn't want to be a sinner.

"My husband has made up his mind, and I sympathize with him." Lin Chaoge stepped forward and spoke for Yan Shiqing.

"You, you, are really married to a good lady." Ning Shenyuan shook his head helplessly, since Lin Chaoge had said so, he couldn't say anything more.

got into the carriage with Yan Shiqing, and the two rushed to Yanjing together.

Lin Chaoge stood in place, looking at the carriage that was moving away.

Su Xin said behind her, "Miss, aren't you afraid that your uncle and the seventh princess will rekindle their old relationship?" ”

"Where did the old love come from? The seventh princess never liked Brother Qing, and now she is pregnant. ”

Lin Chaoge's words dispelled her confused thoughts for no reason.

Su Xin scratched her head, with a shy look on her face, and followed her into the house.

Unfortunately, on the way to Yanjing, their carriage encountered the army of Western Chu, and Qingyu hurriedly drank the horses and hid behind the mountains.

After the carriage settled down, he whispered: "Lord Shizi, Master Ning, there is the army of Western Chu in front. ”

Hearing this, Yan Shiqing and Ning Shenyuan hurriedly lifted the curtain, and really saw the mighty army outside the mountains, just outside Yanjing.

"It's not good, the king of Xichu has done it!" Ning Shenyuan's eyebrows tightened, everything was the same as he expected, as soon as Nangong Yan left Yanjing City, the King of Xichu County would keep an eye on Yanjing City.

"Brother Ning, don't worry, we can't mess up at this moment, when they set up camp at night, we will quietly rush back to Yanjing, tell your uncle the news first, and let them prepare." Yan Shiqing grabbed his arm and pulled him back.

Ning Shenyuan turned his head, the anxiety on his face was clearly visible, at this moment, the mountains were full of people from Xichu, if they made a little noise, they would most likely be discovered by them, even if he was in a hurry, it was useless, after thinking about it, he had to lower his head, and the ancestors agreed to what Yan Shiqing said.

The person who led the army of Western Chu was the king of Western Chu, and after Wu Lian rushed to the western boundary of Yanjing, he also set off for Yanjing, and at this moment, Nangong Yan was attacked from both sides, and he didn't believe that he could come back alive from the crack.

And Nanzhao is right, he is not afraid that he will do anything unfavorable to Xichu.

After marching until the evening, they set up camp tents on the road, Qing Yu ran back from the front, and after reporting to them, he led his horses and continued to Yanjing, bypassing the camp they had set up, and walked in front of the king of Western Chu unknowingly.

As soon as he got rid of the Western Chu army behind, Qingyu rode his horse to Yanjing.

When the sky was slightly bright, they returned to Yanjing, and there was still silence in Yanjing City, no different from the past, and they did not notice the abnormal movement of Xichu.

Shen Feihong, who was ambushed outside Yanjing, frowned when he saw the carriage rushing towards Yanjing, and then the little soldier who chased back from the front replied to him: "General Huiyu, it is Ning Gongzi of the Earl's Mansion and Yan Shizi of Nanzhao who have returned from Nanzhao. ”

Only then did he put his mind at ease.

It's just that Yan Shiqing came back with him, but he was puzzled, it stands to reason that he shouldn't go back to Yanjing City again. But after thinking about it, he probably knew the news that Nangong Yan led the troops to the western boundary and Yu Qiqi stayed alone in the palace, so he rushed over, which is reasonable.

As soon as he entered the city, Ning Shenyuan went to Gu Xia and told him the news that the king of Western Chu County had sent troops to Yanjing City.

Gu Xia didn't look very surprised, he only raised his eyebrows, "It seems that the emperor expected it right, that old fox really made a move." Don't worry, the emperor has already explained before leaving, and your uncle has already prepared countermeasures. He patted his chest.

"It turns out that the emperor has expected it?" Ning Shenyuan's face was a little more surprised.

"This is a secret of the imperial court, and it can't be leaked too much." Gu Xia sold a pass, and before Nangong Yan left, he told him that this matter could not leak out.

"In that case, then I'm relieved." In order to rush back, they didn't close their eyes all night, and now that Gu Xia had a countermeasure, he could go back to rest with peace of mind.

Yan Shiqing was waiting for Ning Shenyuan outside Gu Xia's mansion, and when he saw him coming out of it, he hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

Ning Shenyuan got into the carriage by himself, his face did not have the anxious look of Fang Cai, he only waved his hand, "Uncle has already prepared a battle strategy, you should go to the palace to take a look at the queen mother." ”

"Hmm."

In this way, Yan Shiqing didn't ask any more, after all, this was a matter of Yanjing and Xichu, and he couldn't interfere too deeply.

The carriage drove all the way to the palace, and when it was halfway there, Ning Shenyuan went back to his earl's palace first, and Yan Shiqing went to the palace alone.

When Ah Jian saw him, she almost screamed, but now that she could see someone who could be caught, her heart was more stable, and she hurriedly took Yan Shiqing to Fengluan Palace.

"Princess, look who's coming?!"

She ran into the dormitory, smiling and playing dumb riddles with her.

Every day, in addition to going to the garden to relax, Yu Qiqi comes back to lean on the cushion, watch the play, and tell the story of the play to the children in the womb.

"Who's coming?"

She looked at Ah Jian in confusion.

Ah Jian smiled and pulled Yan Shiqing in front of her, "The son of the world is here!" After pouring a cup of tea for Yan Shiqing, she hurriedly retreated.

Chu Peiyu looked inside uneasily, "He won't do anything unfavorable to the queen mother, right?" ”

After all, he has become a relative, who knows if he is still as vindictive towards Yu Qiqi as before, if he has a desire for revenge, it will not be good.

"Gee, what are you thinking? How could the prince do that to the princess! You are living in the belly of a gentleman with a careful heart! ”

She has been in Yanjing for so long, and she only remembers this sentence.

"Okay, okay, I'll spend the belly of a gentleman, I'm guarding here, do whatever you like." He crossed his hands in front of him and ignored her.

Zhao Niang shook her head helplessly, since Chu Peiyu stayed by Yu Qiqi's side, the number of times she quarreled with Ah Jian was really increasing, and even he, who had always been silent, talked more.

Sometimes she can't intervene if she wants to, so she can only let the two of them make trouble, as long as she doesn't quarrel with Yu Qiqi in the palace.

"Brother Qing, how can you come back to Yanjing at this time?" Yu Qiqi is different from A Jian, she didn't expect this layer, she just felt that Yan Shiqing was happy to appear in front of Yu Qiqi.

"I just know that at this time, there is no one around you who can protect you, so I came back." Yan Shiqing sat down in front of her, her eyes full of tenderness.

"There are Ah Jian and Chu Peiyu here."

She glanced at the two men who were arguing outside.

"Besides, you've become a relative." After a pause, she whispered a reminder to him.

A look of embarrassment flashed in Yan Shiqing's eyes, "I know that I have become a relative, and I shouldn't put too much thought on you, but don't worry, I'm just worried about your safety." When this period is over, I will return to Nanzhao. ”

"Then, sister-in-law, she..." knew that she couldn't resist him, so she had to ask Lin Chaoge what he meant.

"She's already allowed me to come." There was a flash of clarity on his handsome face.

In this way, Yu Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise she would have become a sinner.

Yan Shiqing's eyes fell on her drama, and there was a burst of softness between her eyebrows, "I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, you have been pregnant for more than six months." ”

"Yes, in two months, it will be a baby, I hope that by then, the emperor has returned." Yu Qiqi took his words, but as soon as Nangong Yan was mentioned, the light in her eyes became brighter, which was completely different from the previous appearance of Nangong Yan.

"The battle of the western frontier will not last that long, and he will definitely be able to come back before you give birth." Yan Shiqing was also happy for her, and only hoped that Nangong Yan and Nangong Yan would not spend too much time on the battle of the western border.

When Zhao Niang walked into the dormitory again, Yu Qiqi had already rested, and Yan Shiqing turned his head and made a booing gesture at her.

She understood, and stepped back again.

The place where Ah Jian arranged for Yan Shiqing to settle down was the Yunshui Pavilion where Yu Zhengyan lived before.

"When our five princes came to see the princess before, they lived here." She raised her eyebrows and said very happily.

After everything was settled, Ah Jian left.

Yan Shiqing walked to the edge of the bed, and when he reached out and touched the edge of the bed, the tips of his fingers touched something, like a small porcelain bottle.

He frowned, and looked down to see a small white porcelain vase tucked into the crack on the edge of the bed, as if it had been left behind.

He stretched out his hand, and it took a long time to take out the small porcelain vase.

As soon as he opened the mouth of the bottle, a rich and pungent smell burst out, and he coughed dryly twice, and hurriedly closed the mouth of the bottle again.

Qingyu heard the cough and hurriedly ran in, "Shizi, but what's wrong?" He looked at him nervously.

He shook his head and raised the small porcelain bottle in his hand to him, "This, it should be left behind by the Fifth Prince, I smelled it, it looks like poison." ”

Hearing this, Qing Yu's expression immediately tightened, "Poison?!" ”

Yan Shiqing eased his mind and nodded, "However, I don't know who he used it on." He turned the small porcelain bottle around, only to find that there was a Chu character written on the bottom of the bottle.

His expression changed immediately, so it was very likely that Yu Zhengyan was colluding with the Western Chu people.

"This, do you want to tell the Seventh Princess?" Qing Yu's attention was still on the bottle of poison that suddenly appeared.

Yan Shiqing shook his head, "Don't!" The fifth prince is her own brother, and if she is told, she will inevitably think about it. ”

He put the small porcelain vase back on the edge of the bed, and his eyes darkened.

No wonder Yu Zhengyan suddenly came to Yanjing to see Yu Qiqi at that time, it turned out that he had colluded with the Western Chu people...

Thinking of this, he remembered Shen Feihong, who died not long ago, when it was rumored that he was poisoned by the Western Chu people in Mingyufang, and at that time, Yu Zhengyan was still in Yanjing City.

In this way, it is right!

However, how could he be so careless and leave the poison in the Yunshui Pavilion?

Yan Shiqing thought about it, and always felt that something was not right, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he could only put it on hold first.

As soon as the king of Xichu County went outside Yanjing City, he was ambushed by the 30,000 army led by Shen Feihong, and when he saw Shen Feihong standing in front of him unharmed, he was stunned.

"King of Xichu County, how are you doing lately?"

Shen Feihong sat on the red horse, his eyes were sharp, and he held the reins in his hand tightly.

In the thick smoke, he sneered at the Xichu County Dynasty, "So you didn't die?" The funeral that Nangong Yan held for him was too beautiful and hid from everyone's eyes.

He remembered the scene when Yu Zhengyan met him when he returned to Nanzhao, and a burst of anger arose in his heart. It turned out that he was helping Nangong Yan act with him!

"Thanks to you, your life is big, and you can't die if you fall into your hands several times." Shen Feihong shrugged his shoulders senselessly, his words full of sarcasm.

"Nangong Yan had long expected that I would attack Yanjing City?" Looking at the Yanjing army that surrounded them, and the soldiers at the city gate not far away, the king of Xichu County narrowed his eyes.

"The emperor naturally has a countermeasure, so he will lead the troops to go out, and his trick is to lure the enemy deeper. Unfortunately, you've been tricked. ”

Shen Feihong waited for him here for two whole days before he personally fell into this trap he had laid out, so he naturally had to be proud first.

"This king will actually fall for his trick." He lowered his head and snorted unwillingly. However, thinking of the dance mercy he quietly sent out, the anger in his heart was half gone, but he was attacked from both sides, and he may not have a chance of winning.

The city gate of Yanjing City was lined up with archers prepared by Gu Xia in advance, and reinforcements from the city also poured out, vowing to wipe out the king of Western Chu County.

However, he still had reservations, and only sent 20,000 reinforcements to aid Shen Feihong, and wanted to keep his troops to protect Yanjing City.

The king of Xichu County glanced at the army in Shen Feihong's hands and the army that Gu Xia had photographed, even if they were ambushed just now, it would be more than enough to deal with these people.

The two armies faced each other, and both sides were tense, but neither attacked first. The King of Xichu County had a look that was neither salty nor indifferent, "Uncle Guo, you have thought about it, now that you fight with me, you will not have the slightest advantage." ”

"Humph! Could it be that when your reinforcements come, I will be able to take advantage?! Shen Feihong felt ridiculous, at this moment, only the first strike was the most important.

He clenched the reins in his hand, drew his long sword, and roared, "Rush! ”

In an instant, the 30,000 army behind him immediately rushed towards the army of the king of Xichu County, the scene was shocking, the sound was deafening, and the people of the entire Yanjing City knew that there was a fight outside!

On the long street, there was chaos.

Ning Shenyuan heard the sound and ran to the city gate, Gu Xia was still guarding the city gate, observing the situation outside, if Shen Feihong was in trouble, he must order the soldiers to open the city gate as soon as possible and rescue them!

"Uncle, how's it going?"

Ning Shenyuan ran to his side, the wind on the city gate blew his white clothes and blue sleeves, and his face was full of anxiety.

Gu Xia snorted and reprimanded him, "Oh, what are you doing here?!" "He's just a man of letters, he can't dance with a sword, and coming here will only cause trouble!

"Don't worry, I won't trouble you!"

As he spoke, he took down the sharp arrow behind his back, put it on the bow and arrow, and shot it at the Western Chu army outside, one shot at a time.

Gu Xia was dumbfounded, "When did you learn archery?" ”

"Brother Shiqing taught me." He didn't make friends with Yan Shiqing for nothing, he promised him to teach him a bow and arrow, his arrows shot well, and Ning Shenyuan also learned a hand from him.

"Okay, my uncle will let you stay here."

Gu Xia glanced at him with relief, now he also knows that he has defended his family and the country, he was always unhappy to let him enter the court as an official before, but this time it seems to be a different person.

Looking at these Yanjing troops rushing towards them, the eyes of the King of Western Chu County were as red as bloodthirsty, and the long whip in his hand had not seen blood for a long time.

Immediately, with a wave of the long whip, the Yanjing army rushing towards him poured a large piece on the ground, and a blood mark appeared on his neck.

Shen Feihong was stunned and looked at the soldier lying on the ground, wailing in pain, his long whip was poisoned, "It's really ruthless!" ”

The poisoned person does not die immediately, but falls to the ground and wails in agony, and dies three hours later. Their wails will cause panic among the Yanjing soldiers who rush forward to kill the enemy.

Shen Feihong, who was still killing the enemy, withdrew the long sword in his hand, rode his horse and ran towards him, his long whip was still waving forward, he raised the front hooves of the fierce horse, and the long sword in his hand swung towards his long whip, but unfortunately, he only wiped it, and a burst of sparks appeared, but his long whip was not cut off.

Around him, there were mourning soldiers, all with distorted faces, covering their necks, and the pain was terrifying.

"Uncle Guo is still satisfied with this gift?"

After he finished speaking, his long narrow eyes narrowed, and the long whip in his hand waved backhand, and all the soldiers who were sneaking at him behind him fell to the ground.

Shen Feihong gritted his teeth, "Despicable villain!" On his forehead, several clearly visible green tendons appeared, and once again swung his sword at his long whip.

The king of Xichu County held the reins of the fierce horse tightly, rode the horse to meet the enemy, but the long whip was not swung at Shen Feihong, he leaned down, the whip hit his red fierce horse, and suddenly, the fierce horse flipped back, Shen Feihong fell from the horse, fortunately when he touched the ground, he held the sword to the ground, so he did not fall too embarrassed.

"What about meanness? Now it's me who wins! ”

He raised his eyebrows, and the whip in his hand swung at him.

Shen Feihong ruined his plan several times, he couldn't wait to split his five horses, and the tricks he used at this time were fatal, he couldn't dodge, and he could only be forced to retreat by him.

Ning Shenyuan looked at the figure in silver armor, the sharp arrow in his hand, aimed at the hand that hit Shen Feihong, shot a sharp arrow, and noticed the cold wind blowing in his ears, and the king of Western Chu could only withdraw his outstretched hand.

The sharp arrow shot by Ning Shenyuan fell straight to the ground.

Shen Feihong found his flaw, and immediately swung his sword forward, cutting off his long whip with a sword.

The long whip in his hand was beheaded, which completely angered the king of Xichu County, he threw down the half of the whip in his hand, snatched the sword of a soldier beside him, and rode his horse towards him.

His sword came too fast, Shen Feihong couldn't dodge, and a bloody mark was scratched on the back shoulder, which was very eye-catching, "Where do I see you fleeing this time?!" The King of Xichu roared behind him.

"It's not good, Uncle Guo is in trouble!"

Gu Xia's hand holding the city wall tightened, and his thick eyebrows and big eyes were full of worry.

"Uncle, I can cover you here!" Ning Shenyuan's face also showed a worried look, wanting Gu Xia to rescue him.

"No, I can't leave here!" This is his duty, if the Western Chu army cheats, the entire Yanjing City will be in trouble!

Just when the two of them were in trouble, the city gate was opened, and a figure rode towards the chaotic enemy army, it was Yan Shiqing!

"Brother Shiqing!"

Ning Shenyuan's eyes widened as he watched him rush into the fight single-handedly, the yellow dust rolling up from the horse's hooves obscured his vision, and he still raised the bow and arrow in his hand to cover for him.

As soon as the sound of fighting outside the city sounded, Qingyu ran to him, saying that the army brought by the king of Western Chu had attacked outside the city, and the city was in chaos.

Yan Shiqing hesitated, but left the palace, went to a high place in the city, and kept an eye on the battle situation outside the city, and saw Ning Shenyuan and Gu Xia arguing at the city gate, he knew that it was for Shen Feihong's business.

He took Ning Shenyuan's previous token, asked the guards under the city gate to open the city gate, and rode his horse out.

The king of Xichu County didn't expect Yan Shiqing to suddenly appear behind him, and when the sword in his hand was about to stab Shen Feihong's heart, his wrist was suddenly slashed by the sword, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground.

His brows tightened, blood flowed from his wrists, and he hurriedly turned back, and saw the appearance of a little concubine, "It's you?!" ”

He glared at Yan Shiqing viciously.

"Uncle Guo!"

Yan Shiqing rode his horse to Shen Feihong's side, stretched out his hand, and pulled him from the ground to the horse's back.

"I'm sorry, Lord Jun." After saying a word in a hurry, he took Shen Feihong, who was seriously injured, to Yanjing City.

"Withdraw!"

Seeing that Shen Feihong was rescued by Yan Shiqing, and their casualties were also a little heavy, the king of Xichu County shouted. The sound of fighting outside the city slowly subsided.

This stop can be regarded as a draw, and Yanjing's casualties are not small.

Gu Xia ordered to open the city gate and go out to the outside of the city to treat the wounded soldiers and clean up the corpses on the ground.

Yan Shiqing rushed back to the palace with Shen Feihong, Chu Peiyu got the news and immediately rushed over, Shen Feihong was lying on the soft couch in Yunshui Pavilion, and Qingyu called the imperial doctor to come over to clean his wounds.

The king of Xichu was very heavy, he was hit by several sword wounds in the back, and there were several in front of him, so he almost stabbed his famous family at him.

His back, mixed with blood and sweat, was soaked.

However, the person's consciousness was still sober, he looked at Yan Shiqing and thanked him, "Thank you Shizi for saving your life." "The breath is weak, but with sincerity.

Yan Shiqing curled the corners of his lips at him, and his clothes were still stained with his blood.

"Uncle Guo!"

Chu Peiyu ran over.

"Don't worry, I can't die yet." He looked at him with a smile. Chu Peiyu was stunned for a moment, feeling ashamed, and his eyes dodged.

"Oops, how did you get this bloody look?" Hearing the sound, there was also Liu Mo Nian. His body is so bony that he is about to fall apart when he rushes over when he hears the news.

"What? Afraid I'll go first, you're lonely, old man? He lay down on the couch and joked at him.

"Injuries can't stop you!" Liu Monian sneered him.

The Imperial Doctor touched his wound, causing him to gasp, and he had to keep his mouth shut.

......

The battle was in full swing outside Yanjing City, but there was no movement at all in the western boundary. Seeing that the soldiers of Yanjing had no intention of taking the city, the victims who came to sign up for the disaster did not dare to think about it, but only listened to Xue Yu's dispatch in peace.

Nangong Yan said that he was not really recuperating, he knew that Qingfeng was different from Chiying, he was rigorous and careful everywhere, even if Nangong Yan released such a smoke bomb, he did not relax for half a minute, and still sent people to keep an eye on his movements.

After resting in the camp tent for a few days, Xue Yu would go in for the first day or two to ask him when he would send troops to the city again, but he was sent away by his sentence of "wait a little longer".

In the next few days, he had to obediently train the soldiers outside, and no longer go in to harass him.

Nangong Yan also kept an eye on Qingfeng's movements, maybe he waited for several days and didn't see anything, and the people he sent to keep an eye on Nangong Yan began to slack off.

Taking advantage of his slackness in his eyeliner, Nangong Yan called a soldier in, changed into his clothes, left the barracks, and went to the edge of the city.

Under the entire city, there are Xichu's troops, only a few sand dunes can cover his figure, the night is very dark, there are few stars at night in the western realm, they all rely on torches to illuminate, Nangong Yan changed his shadow back and forth behind the sand dunes, and sneaked under the city.

It had only been long since Aomine had snatched the city down, and it was good to repair the surroundings, he walked around and found an entrance to the city, which they had specially used for emergencies. Although the surrounding area is full of Western Chu's army, there is no one guarding this entrance.

He slowly curled the corners of his lips, it seems that this Qingfeng is really scheming. If he hadn't come over quietly to investigate, he wouldn't have noticed that there would be an entrance to this unguarded place on weekdays.

He walked along the entrance, went inside, and after about a cup of tea, he walked inside. It was dark inside, and nothing could be seen.

Nangong Yan took out the fire fold he brought in advance, lit it up and looked at it, and when he came in along the entrance, it turned out to be a granary! Obviously, this is the entrance they used to escape!

A hint of cunning flashed between his cold eyebrows.

After that, he threw the fire fold in his hand on the granary, hurriedly escaped through the entrance, and ran back to the barracks under the cover of the dunes.

The Western Chu army sent to keep an eye on him had already called it a day, and when he went back, he saw that there was chaos under your city, and only a few shouts were heard, "The granary is on fire!" The granary is on fire! ”

Qingfeng ran outside the granary, grabbed a small soldier, grabbed his shirt and asked angrily, "Good manner, how could the granary be on fire?!" ”

"General Aomine, subordinates, subordinates don't know... No one saw how the granary was on fire...", the creep he had caught replied with a shudder.

At this moment, he saw the two soldiers staring at Nangong Yan coming back, and immediately scolded them, "Where is Nangong Yan?!" ”

"General Hui, he has been in the camp all the time and has never left the camp." They really didn't see Nangong Yan go out.

"Rubbish!"

He shouted.

Although it is impossible to determine whether it was Nangong Yan who sent someone to set the fire, but now that their granary is burned, they can only send urgent mail to Xichu and let them transport military rations, otherwise they will not survive for a few days.

On the second day, Nangong Yan rarely called Xue Yu into the camp tent, he had already put on his armor and held a sword in his hand, "Tell the soldiers to gather and attack the city!" ”

His order was given suddenly, Xue Yu was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and hurriedly responded: "Yes!" Then he ran out and asked the recruited soldiers to gather the soldiers and blow the horn.

For a time, the barracks were full of soldiers, and Nangong Yan led an army of 50,000 to attack the city.

Qingfeng blocked the news that the granary was burned, but he didn't expect that Nangong Yan would move so quickly, and as soon as they came, they attacked the city gate.

The Western Chu army guarding under the city did not respond in time, and the two sides did not fight for long, and most of the soldiers guarding below had already fallen.

After a stick of incense passed, the situation changed, the offensive power of the Yanjing soldiers was very fierce, but the defensive strength of the Western Chu army was very weak.

Qingfeng's face was burning.

He twisted his eyebrows and personally went out with an army of 20,000 to meet the enemy.

Nangong Yan didn't give him a chance to breathe, as soon as he saw him appear, he immediately swung his sword and stepped forward, approaching his life, and Nangong Yan, who appeared in front of him for the first time, was like two people!

The cold sword qi scraped across his throat, making him feel a chill on his neck.

Fortunately, he hid in time.

"Your Majesty, you are hiding so deeply." Aomine hooked his lips and smiled, and a smile appeared on his cold face, which made people feel strange.

"My trick is called a trick." Nangong Yan stared at him coldly, there was no smile on his face, only the majesty of killing decisively.

"Okay, I'll meet you!"

Qingfeng finally met a chess opponent, naturally he was excited, but unfortunately, after a few moves, he knew that he was not Nangong Yan's opponent, he could delay time, but in the end he was afraid that he would lose.

In order to take care of the overall situation, he twisted his brows, decided not to entangle with him anymore, and when he wanted to escape, he was blocked by the cold air that Nangong Yan hit him, "Since you are here, it is not so easy to leave!" ”

The sword in his hand swirled backhand and slashed at his Adam's apple. Qingfeng's scalp was numb for a while, and just when he couldn't dodge, a soft sword blocked the long sword that Nangong Yan stabbed, and a flash of fire stabbed the eyes of the three of them, and all three of them took a step back.

As soon as the soft sword was retracted, it attacked towards Nangong Yan, and the speed was very fast.

"It's you again!"

Nangong Yan was in a hurry, the person who came was Wu Lian, she controlled the soft sword in her hand freely, it was like a poisonous snake that was entangled, no matter how she got rid of it, she couldn't get rid of it, plus when he fought with Qingfeng just now, he had already used fifty percent of his internal strength, and at this moment, in the face of Wu Lian's vicious offensive, he could only barely cope with it.

Qingfeng's palms were still cold, if it wasn't for Wu Lian's timely rescue, he would have returned to the West with his life.

"His life is mine!"

Wu Pian shouted at him in a hoarse voice.

Nangong Yan narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, no longer entangled with her, and shouted loudly: "Withdraw!" ”
