In the autumn of the fifth year of Tianbao, the young emperor promised the Uesugi Tiger in the cold and snow far north in a secret letter: "I will exchange Sean for returning home." "Therefore, a generation of famous generals Uesugi Tiger gave up the northern fortress that had been in operation for more than ten years, and only returned to Shangjing with Tan Wu with his own military camp, because he believed that the Son of Heaven had no jokes.

As a result, Sean returned to China, but the emperor refused to let him out, because the emperor wanted to know Sean's secret.

At the same time, the Queen Mother wanted Sean to die, because Kuhe didn't want Sean's secret to be known by anyone.

Because Jinyiwei stared too closely, Uesugi Tiger did not have a strong help in Beijing, but just by relying on his prestige in the army, whether it was the queen mother or the emperor, they had to give him a little thin face, and they didn't dare to force him too much. This kind of situation is something that the Northern Qi Palace does not want to see, so they must grasp it if they can find an opportunity to weaken the strength or prestige of the Shangshan Tiger.

Like today.

looked at Tan Wu beside the carriage solemnly, knowing that after this incident, even if he couldn't convict Uesugi Tiger, as long as he caught Uesugi Tiger, the personal guard of the year, I believe that Uesugi Tiger's reputation in the army would also suffer a fatal blow, and colluding with Nanqing was a crime that no soldier could bear.

At this moment, Tan Wu tilted his head, opened his lips and scolded: "The Nanqing people of the dog." ”

Shen Zheng smiled slightly and said: "The loud noise before, this official is clearly ruthless, except for the three places of the Nanqing Supervision Yuan that can make these fancy things, who else can there be? Nanqing people help General Tan rob the prisoner, this matter is decided." ”

Unexpectedly, Tan Wu ignored him, just looked back at the nine subordinates behind him, the marshal's personal guard battalion was trained by himself, and he had already died a lot tonight, if it wasn't for the treachery of the Nanqing people, he would definitely be able to lead everyone to escape.

He looked back at Shen Chong, and suddenly bowed and said, "Please send a word to Shen Chong." ”

"What's that?" Shen Zhong didn't force him, because he still had the idea that he could catch it alive in case.

"My killer...... Fan Xianye!"

Tan Wu, as a handsome henchman, naturally knew several parties to this plan, and Fan Xian, as the commander of the Southern Dynasty Supervision Yuan, happened to be in Shangjing, and the role he played in it was naturally obvious. The name Fan Xian, shouted out from his mouth, full of resentment and resentment, clearly reached the ears of hundreds of people in the audience!

Fan Xian on the tall tree had a calm face, as if he hadn't heard it, but he knew in his heart that the Uesugi Tiger would definitely understand the disgraceful role he played in this matter afterwards, not to mention that Tan Wu roared like this before he died.

As soon as the words fell, Tan Wu flipped his wrist, and the sword light slashed from the bottom to the top like snow, shaving off his cheek!

Immediately after that, there were nine brushing sounds, and it seemed to sound at the same time, and the nine heads were washed away from the body of the man in black by the blood and water, rolling to the ground, and rolling to the same place with Tan Wu's angry eyes, blurred flesh and blood, and extremely miserable faceless head.

It is very strange that Shen Chong did not stop them from committing suicide, but just looked at this qiē indifferently, and after a while, he said softly: "These are the warriors of the country, but it is a pity that they died in the Nanqing people's yīn scheme, everyone, good life and good burial." ”

When Tan Wu committed suicide in disfigurement, Fan Xian's heart on the tall tree trembled slightly, and he heard Shen Chong's words with his superior ear power, and then he knew that Shen Chong was really not simple.

............ All the captives were dead, and only the lonely carriage was still surrounded by the brocade guards, and everyone knew that Sean, the ancestor of the brocade guards, the old man who had long since lost his bravery, was in the carriage at this time.

Without warning, the carriage burned brightly without knowing what was attached to it!

The fire was so fierce that in a moment it enveloped the whole carriage, and the horses in front of them were frightened, but they could not neigh, and they were about to rush forward with the carriage!

Shen Zhong looked at the burning carriage indifferently, not knowing what he was thinking. Deputy Commander Xiao glanced at the adult, and said a little anxiously: "My lord, quickly put out the fire, Your Majesty wants Sean to live." ”

Shen Zhong smiled slightly, waved his hand, stopped his subordinates' actions to fight the fire, motioned to Deputy Commander Xiao to come to him, and said softly: "But the Queen Mother wants Sean to die." Deputy Commander Xiao grimaced, knowing that his previous statement was a little impulsive, and then he found that a very strange feeling appeared in the corners of his heavy eyes and eyebrows, and he listened to the adult whisper to himself: "After being locked up for so many years, since you can't get out, you will die...... Maybe it's also a good choice. ”

The flames rose into the sky, and in a short time the carriage was burned and collapsed, and fell into the street, and the black ash gradually rose, and the heat was soothing.

As soon as the fire stopped, a special servant of the Jinyi guard stepped forward and began to carefully examine the corpse in the car. After a while, he reported back: "It's Sean." ”

Shen nodded solemnly and asked, "Is the leg injury new?"

"Yes, no more than two months from the injury. ”

"Teeth?"

"Consistent with the record when the Wudu River was taken over, three were missing. ”

The heavy expression was a little weird, as if he couldn't believe that Sean was dead, it seemed that he didn't know what kind of expression to use to express his mood at this time, in short, that smile was a little weird and indifferent.

―――――――――――――――――――― the mansion of General Uesugi in the south of the city, a generation of famous generals Uesugi Tiger is talking with his wife, there is a gift list on the coffee table next to the two, and some chaotic sounds can be faintly heard in the courtyard, and Mrs. said with a slight worry between her eyebrows: "Master, the Queen Mother is a birthday, these few rì you can't leave Beijing, how can this be good?" If it is placed in the past, the mansion should be quiet at this time, I don't know why, today even the lady has not fallen asleep.

Uesugi Tiger's face remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice: "Nature is inseparable." ”

"What about this birthday ......ceremony," Madame bowed her head and asked.

"Naturally, you can't be prepared, madam, you better prepare your luggage. ”

As he spoke, a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist suddenly walked into the back hall. Mrs. knew that this person was the personal entourage of the handsome, but it was early in the morning, and the other party was uninvited, thinking that her unlucky conjecture must have come true, she looked at Uesugi Tiger in a little panic, and said in a trembling voice: "You really did it?"

Uesugi Tiger was not angry but mighty, a pair of black silkworm eyebrows gradually turned into a sword, and said in a deep voice: "I will be loyal to the imperial court, but if there is a disagreement, you must also allow me to be a little presumptuous." ”

Madame didn't say anything more, but retreated to the back room in silence, and no longer had the heart to take care of the gifts for the Queen Mother's birthday.

"Shuai, there are more nails outside the house. ”

Only those who are closest to Uesugi Tiger will stubbornly call Uesugi Tiger a marshal, not a general. At this time, the personal relative who spoke had no surname, just an orphan, and was later picked up by Uesugi Tiger from the snow forest, raised to such a big age, and gave the surname Uesugi, a single name and a broken character. His relationship with Uesugi Tiger is somewhat similar to the relationship between Uesugi Tiger and Sean, except that he is more in awe than affection for Uesugi Tiger.

"Wait for news. Uesugi Tiger sat steadily on the chair, his face calm, and there was no trace of nervousness at all.

Uesugi Po came out of the order, monitoring the movement outside the courtyard while preparing the follow-up measures.

............ After a long time, Uesugi Po returned to the backroom, half-knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "It's a failure." His voice didn't tremble, but somehow, he still couldn't hide a sadness.

Uesugi Tiger's right hand on the chair handle paused, closed his eyes, the force of closing his eyes was extremely great, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes bloomed like chrysanthemums, until this time, the real age of this generation of famous generals could be discovered.

He walked back to the back room, looked at his wife, who was sitting a little uneasily by the bed, smiled, and said, "It's late, why haven't you slept yet?"

The general's wife smiled a little uneasily: "I can't sleep." ”

Uesugi Tiger smiled and said, "We won't leave Beijing, let's discuss the gift list for the Queen Mother when we enter the palace in the future." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――― At this time, Tian Sè was at the darkest hour before dawn, and the messy courtyard below began to be cleaned up, and the Jinyi guards who surrounded it from all directions also began to disperse silently according to their respective duties, and the carriage that was burned to ashes and the corpses on the ground had also been taken over by the professionals of the Suppression Division, and after a while, the following returned to calm, and in front of the powerful machine of an empire, it was not impossible to cover up such a loud noise, an earth-shattering event。

The injured Jinyi guard at the back wall was still lying on the ground, occasionally letting out a few low screams, the damage caused by the explosion was very severe, most of them died, and even those who occasionally escaped were covered in ashes and blood.

At this time, someone was carrying the injured Jinyi guards to the yamen in the direction of Beicheng, and the doctors also followed nervously, and a long string of stretchers looked like a thin knotworm, twisting their waists and limbs forward.

Fan Xian cautiously crouched on the branch, tightened the muscles of his body, and then relaxed the muscles of his body, repeating it so as not to freeze for too long and slow down his reactions. He looked at the wounded on the stretchers in the alley under the tree, and thought to himself that if he hadn't loved to watch the silent lamb and the killer Leon, he would have really let the old man escape.
