When the group arrived at Yihong Courtyard, Zhao Ning first sent his subordinates to find someone.

Qinglou is an elegant place, listening to music and appreciating paintings and other idle things, not without women in and out, but there are very few people who do not dress up as sons and men, and the geisha guests are not surprised to see the proprietress and Hongkou.

The so-called surprise, half of it is naturally because a woman blatantly came to the Qinglou, and the other half is because of the appearance of the proprietress, who compared the best looking Qinger in the Qinglou.

Zhao Ning waved his hand to disperse the old bustard who was going to entertain, and sat down at a random table in the lobby with everyone, the Zhao clan had been upstairs to find someone for a long time, and they didn't need to stay long.

This is the first time for the little girl Hongkou to come to a place like Qinglou, looking around with curious eyes, quite a bit of a countryman entering the city, and she doesn't forget to praise the sisters here for how good-looking.

The waiting time was longer than expected, Zhao Ning thought that the proprietress would be angry, and she would be impatient at the most unlucky, but it turned out that he was wrong, the proprietress was very calm and relaxed, and her demeanor was more normal and normal.

Ever since she walked out of the tea shed, she seemed to have truly detached herself from the world, and she didn't care about anything, especially the fact that there was no emotional change because of the dog man in her mouth.

For a long time, a middle-aged man dressed in white who looked like a snow scholar appeared in the field of vision of Zhao Ning and others.

This person is long, with the elegance of a student and the free and easy attitude of a hermit outside the world.

Looking at his red face and staggering, it seemed as if he would fall down the stairs in the next moment.

Of course, this is an illusion, even if he stepped on the air when he was pouring his head up, he could accurately crook in the arms of the plump Qingqi'er, and was supported by the other party.

Maybe his hand touched the wrong place, which always made Qingqi'er angry.

I only listened to this person's drunken eyes and muttering while going downstairs: "Su Niang grabbed her waist and limbs, and the snow and dust were wonderful...... The starry eyes are in good spirits, and the sleeves are windy, and the figure is ......"

hiccuped, touched the pretty face of Qing'er next to him, and when the other party shy and avoided,

The scholar smiled, changed the first word and continued to chant: "The town is with you, don't throw away, sit with Yi with needlework, and me." lest you be young and your time is too ......"

After that, in the adoring eyes of the Qing people, he laughed out loud and was very romantic.

When I arrived in the lobby, I finally saw Zhao Ning and the others, the scholars with scumbags on their faces, shook their arms and got out of the support of the Qing Qi'er, and drank the wine in one go.

Throwing away the wine jug, the scholar bowed to the Qing Qi'er, and sighed very reluctantly: "This past year, it should be a good day and a good time, and there are thousands of styles...... Don't say it, don't say it!"

Flicked his sleeves, ignoring the outstretched hands of the tearful Qing'er, the scholar had already turned around and came straight to the table of Zhao Ning and the others.

"Brother Zhao, Brother Xuanyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm?"

The scholar arched his hand at Zhao Ning and the old man, and before they could return the salute, his eyes had already fallen on Hongkou, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but admire: "This is Hongkou, right?"

"The last time I saw you was ten years ago, when you were only playing in the mud, and I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, you had become a big girl. is born so smart and beautiful, the future husband must not be an ordinary man!"

After getting the compliment, Hongkou was very happy, and forgot for the time being, when she just saw the other party hugging left and right, she couldn't help but feel bad in her heart, and she greeted each other in a proper manner.

Finally, the scholar glanced at the proprietress and saw that the latter did not squint and did not see him at all, so his eyes quickly moved away, as if he were just looking at an object.

"Brother Zhao and Brother Xuanyuan are here together, but Yuan Muzhen has already arrived?" the scholar sat down at the table.

From beginning to end, the proprietress who didn't change her expression at all, but at this time, she couldn't hold back, and an extremely gloomy aura flashed under her eyes, as if she could eat people, and she didn't spit out bones.

Zhao Ning bowed slightly: "It's almost, just in the past two days." ”

Leaving the Qinglou, everyone went to the Zhao Mansion together.

After personally arranging the accommodation of the proprietress and others, Zhao Ning went to the study to meet Zhao Xuanji.

"If your majesty is not bad as expected, your majesty should have left Bianliang today, and the child should be on the way back to Bianliang in July. ”

Zhao Xuanji had a chessboard full of chess pieces in front of him, before Zhao Ning came, he should be playing against himself, after Zhao Ning sat down, he put down the chess pieces in his hand and sighed:

"I just received a report from your fourth uncle, and the Beihu army gathered in Weizhou has begun to cross the river to attack Yangliu City. In this situation, it is inevitable that the army of Yangliucheng will collapse, and the city will be broken in a moment.

"Yuan Muzhen didn't come to Jinyang immediately, he should be waiting for the Beihu army to capture Yangliucheng and gain a firm foothold, and when he returned to Bianliang at this time in July, the situation he had to face was very difficult. ”

Zhao Ning could see at a glance that Zhao Xuanji was using the chessboard to deduce the battle situation, and the other party was the most proficient person in Daqi, although he was not in the center, there were changes in the entire battlefield in his eyes at all times.

Zhao Ning said: "After confirming that Yuan Muzhen is leaving, my sister will appear in Bianliang." With our previous layout in Bianliang, my sister's safety will not be a problem. As for whether my sister can handle complex situations, I don't think it's a problem. ”

Zhao Xuanji bowed slightly, "We blocked Chalahan in Jindi, and you won a big victory in Yunzhou, so the military and people in the world will trust our Zhao family even more."

"Even if the situation is critical, your sister should be able to get a lot of soldiers to follow when she raises her arms in Bianliang.

"In addition, with the solid flank of Yunzhou, the Central Plains is not alone, and the generals of the family know this, and they will not be reluctant to give it a go. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xuanji glanced at Zhao Ning and said in a deep voice: "If Yuan Muzhen arrives in Jinyang today, we will have a much greater grasp."

"But if Yuan Muzhen waited until the Beihu army captured Yangliu City, and then set off to the north, with this period of recovery, the damage caused by the forced destruction of the realm by the jade seal of the country before would basically disappear. If we want to overcome him, we will not be very sure. ”

Of course, Zhao Ning understands this truth.

If Yuan Mu really relied on his unique heavenly and human realm and came to Jinyang directly after the Bianliang War, it would naturally be what Zhao Ning wanted to see. But Zhao Ning knew that this was extremely unlikely.

Yuan Muzhen's behavior of fighting Bianliang alone looks extremely arrogant, but in fact, the other party is not an imprudent person. If he doesn't get back to his best, he can't be sure that nothing goes wrong, and he basically won't be in danger alone.

"Whatever the situation, we don't have a choice, it's just a fight. We have done everything we can, and we don't know immediately before victory or defeat arrives, so we don't have to be afraid of him. "Zhao Ning has seen and heard in his previous life, and his confidence is greater than Zhao Xuanji.

Zhao Xuanji nodded slightly.

In fact, as Zhao Ning expected, when Yen Mujin did not appear in Jinyang.

At noon the next day, Motomu really came to the sky above Jinyang.

When the horror and panic had not yet spread in Jinyang City, Zhao Ning and the others greeted them as soon as possible.

.......

Bianliang City.

Walking on the busy and flowery streets of the past, Chen Anzhi was worried.

The shops are basically closed, and the people who are dragging their families are running out in a panic with their bags on their backs.

The cry of a child, the urging of an old man, the cursing of a man, and the call of a woman are like a pot of boiling water, and the ears are like numbness.

The emperor fled, the cultivators of the Wang Extreme Realm fled, the Beihu army crossed the river, the defenders of Yangliucheng retreated, and Bianliang was only a few dozen miles away from the fall, leaving not much time for the people to survive.

Xiuwei didn't reach the Wang Ji realm, Chen Anzhi failed to evacuate with Song Zhi, and as a disciple of the Chen family, he didn't plan to escape like this.

Just looking at the devastated Bianliang City, the desire in my heart to fight a bloody battle seemed to be as untouchable as the stars in the sky.

"Get out of the way! Whoever dares to get in the way of grandpa will kill him!"

The angry and loud shouting and scolding broke into Chen Anzhi's ears.

As he followed, he saw a group of officials dressed in soap robes, wielding whips in their hands, beating and driving away the people who stood in their way.

Behind them were several officials who also rode horses, and several richly decorated carriages, and behind these carriages were followed by a convoy of boxes with no end in sight, guarded by a group of maids and servants.

Obviously, this is a fleeing team of dignitaries and dignitaries, even if they are fleeing, they still carry a lot of family wealth, and they can also let their servants and guards open the way.

Those ordinary people who could only carry sackcloth wraps and did not have much silver on their bodies, who were already frightened at the moment, and were running with the same dazzling people on the left and right, where could they avoid the horse teams of the officials in time?

Countless people were beaten, and people who were hit by horses were everywhere, and in order to avoid them, they rushed into each other and fell to the ground, and even those who could not control and trampled on each other, and let out a terrible scream, and the spread continued to spread.

Even if the sky falls apart and everyone is running for their lives, fairness still does not exist.

A woman with a three-year-old child in her arms and a woman in patches in her arms and wailing with her mouth open was pushed to the ground by a strong man in a panic behind her, and before her husband, who was also holding a child, pulled him up, the official's whip fell on him.

Seeing that the iron hooves raised high were about to fall on the woman, and when she and the child in her arms were about to be killed or injured, the official suddenly flew out with a man and a horse, and smashed several people riding horses behind.

Chen Anzhi, who was in front of the woman, turned around and ordered to get up quickly, and walked towards the frightened cavalry step by step, his low eyes were full of murderous aura, staring at the fourth-grade official who stepped forward and said:

"Lord Zhou, the prime minister has issued an order, so that the officials of Tokyo Prefecture must not escape, and must come forward to stabilize the order on the street, you disobey the order of the emperor, not to mention, and dare to kill the people in the street, what crime should you be guilty of?!"

The official surnamed Zhou, who had a mustache, because Chen Anzhi blocked his way to escape and injured his people, was angrily hitting the horse and wanted to beat the person who blocked the road to death, seeing that it was Chen Anzhi, the son of the prime minister, although he was a little surprised, but he did not have any fear:

"What kind of crime should I be guilty of? At this time, who will punish me? Your Majesty is gone, what is the use of the Prime Minister's order? If you don't want to die yourself, do you have to bury us all together?

"I advise you to get out of the way, otherwise don't blame the official for being polite!"

His words were finished.

His life was gone.

Chen Anzhi didn't talk nonsense with him anymore.

He chose to strike decisively.

Lowering his head, seeing the talisman sword pierced into his chest, the official surnamed Zhou glared at Chen Anzhi in disbelief: "You...... How dare you kill me...... I'm a fourth-rank officer! You're ...... You don't want to live anymore?"

Chen Anzhi pulled out his long sword with a pale face, and said coldly: "Those who mislead the country and harm the people will be punished by everyone!"

"Don't say that you are a fourth-grade official, even if you are a first-grade official, at this time, I will kill Chen Anzhi, who can help me?"

The official surnamed Zhou vomited blood and fell under the horse, and his eyes widened unwillingly until he died.

Standing on the head of the horse, Chen Anzhi held a blood-dripping sword and looked at the cavalry team that was shocked by him:

"From now on, all the officials in Bianliang City, those who dare to disobey the prime minister's order to defend the city, I will kill one of them! If anyone is not satisfied, come up and try the sword in Chen's hand!"
