Thousands of miles in the sky, as clear as a wash. The sun is shining and the breeze is gentle.

Le'an City, fluttering flags, ironclad silver guns, siege equipment, one after another, aroused a burst of smoke and dust. The sword light and sword shadow, under the illumination of the sun, looks particularly dazzling. At the front of the array, there were a few generals with spring breezes on their faces, and the soldiers at the back of the array had solemn faces. It is in stark contrast to the generals who are waiting for the city of Le'an, the atmosphere of slaughter lingers in the sky, and the city is still walking in a mixed manner, with strange clothes and strange goods in the streets and alleys, and the noise of the city is endless.

Walking to a mile from the Le'an city gate, the commanders of Xiangzhou and Zhongzhou pulled the reins.

The Governor of Zhongzhou raised his head, looked at Chen Yuqing and the others above the city wall, and asked the commander of Xiangzhou in that soft voice: "The person on the city tower is the City Lord Chen. ”

The commander of Xiangzhou nodded, and then shouted at Chen Yuqing: "City Lord Chen, the soldiers of Qingzhou have retreated, why don't you open the city gate quickly?"

Chen Yuqing, who was standing on top of the city tower, replied: "Who is under the city?"

The commander of Xiangzhou scolded: "This is the governor of the Heavenly Empire, and the Duke of Wei is also." City Lord Chen still hasn't gone out to greet the Governor of Wei?"

"It turned out to be the governor of Wei, please forgive me for being rude. ”

Governor Wei was very satisfied with Chen Yuqing's attitude, so he said: "The Sprinkle family came to take over Le'an City by the emperor's order, and the city lord Chen did not open the city gate and let the Sprinkle family and the army enter the city. ”

On the city tower, Chen Yuqing looked at Mo Li, saw Mo Li nodded, and then said: "Governor Wei came to Le'an City thousands of miles away, and he was supposed to prepare music, singing and dancing and good wine and food for the governor to catch the wind and wash the dust, but unexpectedly, a thief sneaked into the city and stole the seal of the house. Xia Guan should have apologized with death, but he was grateful to Huang Enhao, so he wanted to kill the thief first, clear the hidden danger for the governor, and then open the door to welcome the governor, and let the governor deal with it at that time. ”

"Oh, how dare any thief be so bold as to go deep into the city to steal the seal?" Father-in-law Wei pretended to be surprised, and then said: "City Lord Chen, open the city gate, and when the Sprinkle family and all the officers and soldiers enter the city, they will assist you in catching the thieves." ”

Chen Yuqing clasped his fists and said: "Governor Wei, this city gate cannot be opened now, it is a trivial matter to lose a city, if you let the thieves seize the secret treasure in the city, there will be endless troubles." The governor has a daughter's body, and the subordinate officials do not care that the governor is in danger, and he still hopes that the governor will be one or two. ”

"The clues that can be checked, who is responsible?" Wei Gonggong scolded in his heart, Chen Yuqing can't see shameless, I haven't seen you pretend like this.

Chen Yuqing said with an embarrassed face: "Governor, the lower officials can't say it." ”

"Why can't you say that there are these soldiers behind the Sprinkle family and the commander of Xiangzhou here, is there still a thief who still has the ability to turn the world upside down?"

Chen Yuqing sighed and said: "The lower officials are loyal to the country, how dare they have two hearts." Since the governor said so, the lower officials had no choice but to name the culprit who stole the copy. ”

"Who is it?"

"It is the person next to the Metropolitan Governor, the person under the King of Xiang. ”

Gonggong Wei looked at the commander of Xiangzhou beside him, and then asked: "Can you verify it clearly? King Xiang is now the king of Zhennan of my Celestial Dynasty, how can he steal the seal of your city? Do you know that if you can't come up with real evidence, it will be a crime of slander, and if the king of Zhennan and the saint are held accountable, I am afraid that your entire Chen family will be implicated." ”

Chen Yuqing's face showed a look of fear, and said: "Back to the governor, the lower officials are also suspicious, the king of Zhennan was ordered to send troops to retreat from the enemy, how could he covet my little Le'an City." What's more, this is the time for the Governor to come and take over. Xia Guan was at a loss for a while, but all the evidence pointed to the king of Zhennan, and he didn't know what to do!"

When the commander of Xiangzhou saw Chen Yuqing pointing at the king of Zhennan, he was furious, and scolded: "Bastard, I am dignified Xiangzhou, how can I take a fancy to you in this projectile land." Besides, didn't you send the seal from the adjutant general of the army?"

Without waiting for the commander of Xiangzhou to continue to scold, General Cao on the city tower jumped out at this moment and said: "Who are you, when has I seen you!

Chen Yuqing suddenly understood everything at this time, and said: "Le'an City is just a small city, and my Chen clan is only a hundred lowly people. Since Emperor Wen was merciful a hundred years ago, my Chen clan has guarded here, and I dare not slack off. If Zi Sheng wants to take back Le'an City today, even if it is the life of the Chen family, the lower officials should give it with both hands. Chen Yuqing was heartbroken, and said with a wry smile: "The husband is not guilty, but I didn't expect that a rumor could make countless people in the world red." The king of Zhennan wants to exterminate my Chen clan and the innocent lives of this city. Governor, the honor and disgrace of my Chen clan does not matter, but we also receive the emperor's favor, and we eat yellow sorghum, and the Celestial Empire cannot be humiliated. Governor, please also make decisions for the lower officials, for these thousands of soldiers, and for the people of the Celestial Empire who are full of cities. ”

Chen Yuqing burst into tears, which was moving, it was difficult for Gonggong Wei to ride a tiger, he knew that Chen Yuqing was slandering the king of Zhennan, and on the surface, he looked at the pillars of the country and was a loyal person, but in fact he harbored evil intentions. The purpose is to create a gap between himself and Xiangzhou, and he will be punished by words, this trick is to kill people with a knife, but he doesn't know how to pick it up.

The commander of Xiangzhou was angry and scolded: "Chen Yuqing, you are bold. The king of Zhennan is something that you, a little city lord, can insult. Hmph, you are acting in this drama just to drive a wedge between the friendship between my Xiangzhou and the monarchs and ministers of the Celestial Empire. After speaking, the commander of Xiangzhou turned to Gonggong Wei and said, "Governor, wait for me to personally cut off the head of Chen Yuqing's second child, open the door and welcome the governor into the city." ”

Gonggong Wei stretched out his hand to stop the commander of Xiangzhou, and shouted to the city tower: "City Lord Chen, you, the Sprinkle family, and the king of Zhennan are all loyal to the Heavenly Dynasty. There must have been a misunderstanding in the matter of the theft of the seal. Why don't you open the city gate and let the Sprinkle family be the master, how about you eliminate the misunderstanding with the commander of Xiangzhou, and give the Sprinkle family a face?"

"Thank you Dudu, the Chen family cannot be humiliated, and the prestige of the Celestial Empire cannot be humiliated. ”

Seeing Chen Yuqing refusing his face like this, Gonggong Wei said in his heart, since you are looking for death yourself, you can't complain about the family. Then he gave the commander of Xiangzhou a look, and sent the soldiers of Zhongzhou to move half a mile to the west.

The commander of Xiangzhou gave orders: "Shi Qian and Feiyu ordered the two of you to go and behead Chen Yuqin's old thief." ”

Two people behind the commander of Xiangzhou stepped forward, one was thin and short, holding two short blades in his hands, and the other was wearing a feather coat made of white feathers, holding a long sword in his hand, and flew towards the city tower.

"Chen Liu, Zuo Ling, fight!" Mo Li said to the two of them when he saw this.

"Yes!"

After speaking, Zuo Ling carried a spear, Chen Liu's hand held a long sword, and he greeted Shi Qian and Fei Yu.
