Ye Hanxi finally saw the face that made her lose her soul and made her heart beat faster.

"The courtiers have seen the prince."

The prince hurriedly helped her up, "I never felt that your appearance was bad, so why should you feel sorry for yourself?" I didn't come to see you in time because I had some urgent matters to inform Lou Sanniang, Han Xi must not think too much. ”

Ye Hanxi was guessed in his mind, and his face turned red, "The heart of the courtier and the villain, I hope the prince will forgive his sins." ”

"You and I will be one husband and wife, how can we talk about forgiveness? You are the crown princess selected by A-Niang and me. ”

The crown prince gave her the most important affirmation, when the queen and the prince discussed the choice of the crown princess, they took a fancy to Ye Hanxi's gentleness and humility, down-to-earth generosity, and distinguishing between right and wrong, such a woman is the most suitable to be the future queen. If you want to ascend to the throne smoothly, everyone around the crown prince is crucial.

Ye Chuzhang has always been conscientious in the history of Jinzhou Thorn over the years, and Jinzhou has also become the richest Shangzhou in the region, and can even do it at night without closing the door and leaving the road behind, so the people of Jinzhou love Ye Chuzhang very much.

Emperor Shun admired his honest and honest character of putting the people first, so he promoted him to Zhongshu Ling. With such a father, the daughter who teaches will naturally not be bad. In short, the queen is very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

For this draft, some people are happy and some are worried.

In the mansion, Lou Qihuai looked at Chu Yuxian and Lou Xuanyi and his wife, all of whom had bitter gourd faces. Since the female official came to celebrate Lou Yunxiao's selection as the Nine Emperor Princesses and took away the worry-free, this family has been as sullen as a dark cloud.

Lou Qihuai took the lead in breaking the deadlock, "Perhaps, it is not a bad thing for Xiao'er to marry the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

"Not a bad thing? You and I see how Cangyuan treats Xiao'er, and you told me how Cangyuan was good at the beginning, but now why have you changed your tone? Chu Yuxian's face was full of displeasure.

"Xian'er is not in a hurry, even if she is in a hurry now, it is useless, Xiao'er is already the future princess of the Nine Emperors."

"Poor Xiao'er and Brother Cangyuan love each other but can't be together." Su Rongyan said regretfully.

"I don't know how heartbroken Cangyuan would be if he knew that Xiao'er was about to marry the Nine Emperor Princes, and Xiao'er, I heard that she was very sick when she was selected." Lou Xuanyi also sighed.

Two days ago, Mu Lingci had already led his army to camp outside the city of Huizhou Erli, and according to the report of the sentinels sent to investigate in the past two days, the strength of the bandits in Huizhou was mainly concentrated in the south of the city, southeast of the city, and southwest of the city. However, the cities in the area of Jiannan Road all have one thing in common, that is, the city walls are extremely high, one is to block the miasma and fierce beasts in the mountains and forests, and the other is because the terrain of Jiannan Road is dangerous, and if the city wall is not high enough, it will be easily captured.

But it is such a high city wall, it can't stop the bandits, if it weren't for the thieves who would fly the eaves and walk through the wall, then someone would be in the city of Huizhou.

The next day, Mu Lingci led his troops to the city, and the black clouds overwhelmed the city, and a vicious battle was about to break out.

The Northern Saint Army called for battle outside the city, and the Huizhou bandits stood on the head of the city and saw the banner of the Northern Saint, so they immediately sent someone to inform the bandit leader.

After a while, a burly man slowly walked from the city wall, looking about twenty and six.

The man shouted at the city: "Is it Mu Lingci? I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

This question made Mu Lingci a little puzzled, "Who are you?" ”

"Back then, you were the one who designed to encircle and suppress my father during the First World War in Lingzhou and took down his head. You and I have the same hatred for killing our fathers! ”

Mu Lingci then remembered that when he was thirteen years old, he had gone to Lingzhou with the Duke of Zhongguo. At that time, the younger brother of the king of Tule, Ashina Dango, led the most courageous black cavalry of Tule to press the border, and the Tule people were brave and good at fighting, and the soldiers were strong and strong, and the Northern Holy Army lost two battles in a row.

Seeing that the Tule army was about to capture Lingzhou City, Zhongguo Gong took Mu Lingci and led 5,000 Xuanjia troops to rush to help. However, no one would have thought that it was because of this battle that the so-called invincible Tule Black Cavalry was actually played around by a thirteen-year-old boy.

Ashina Dango died in the trap set by Mu Lingci because of the underestimation of the enemy, and his head moved on the spot, spilling blood on the battlefield.

Since then, Tule has never raised troops to attack, thinking that they were beaten obediently, but unexpectedly, it was Taoguang who was obscure and waiting for an opportunity to move.

"It turns out that you are Como, the son of Ashina Dango, since you are a defeated general, why bother to be bored, surrender as soon as possible, and maybe leave a whole corpse!" Mu Lingci shouted.

Ashina Como was so excited that he gritted his teeth, and Mu Lingci was clearly mocking his father's dead body, "Mu Lingci, today I will avenge my father!" But before I do that, I want to play a game with you, and if you win, I might as well consider letting you die a happy death. ”

I saw Ashinakomo wave his hands, and an elderly man and a drooping child were escorted out on both sides of the city wall. They were tied with ropes around their waists, and the other end of the rope was tied to the pillars of the city wall. Before the Northern Saint Army could react, the two were pushed down.

"You can only choose one of the two of them to pull up, and the other will fall to death, but if you can save both, then you win!" Ashinakomo smiled evilly, "This old guy and this kid are grandchildren, think about it, hahahahaha." ”

Mu Lingci looked at the two people hanging on the high place, and couldn't make a decision for a long time.

The kid on the right was crying, his eyes full of fear. The old man on the left shouted hoarsely at Mu Ling, "General Mu! Please save your old grandson, he is still young, please save him. ”

Shen Jinfeng saw Mu Lingci's hesitation and immediately fanned the flames, "Marshal Mu, how long do you have to wait, this is a life-threatening matter, if you wait any longer, I'm afraid that both of these grandparents and grandchildren will die." The dignified marshal is so indecisive, how can he lead thousands of troops! ”

When Shen Jinfeng said this, the soldiers behind all looked at each other.

"If Vice Marshal Shen can make a decision, he can do it himself! Climbing the marshal here, don't you want to replace him! Le Ji immediately replied.

"You!"

"Ashinacomo! Marshal Ben thought it out. Mu Lingci shouted.

One by one, the Turks on the walls of the city took their scimitars and aimed them at the ropes.

Mu Lingci pointed to the old man on the left with one hand, and put the other hand on the bow at his side, "I choose him to live." ”

Almost as soon as he spoke, the rope on the right was cut, and the child screamed and fell vertically. At the last moment, Mu Lingci held a bow and arrow, and three arrows were fired at once, one of which hit the broken rope steadily and got stuck in the crack of the city wall.

The crying child stopped falling instantly, and Mu Lingci rode away on the horse as soon as his legs clamped the horse's belly, but the rope could no longer withstand the pressure, and the arrow was slowly pulled out of the crack in the wall.

In an instant, the arrow in the crack in the wall was completely pulled out, and the child began to fall again.

Just when the child was about to fall to death, Mu Lingci stepped on the back of the horse and jumped into the air, stretched out his hand to catch him. The child was so frightened that his face turned blue, and he cried in Mu Lingci's arms, Mu Lingci hugged the child's shoulders tightly, and flew back the horse the same way.

Just when everyone thought that the old man and the child had been rescued, Ashinakomo, who was standing on the city wall, walked behind the old man and stretched out his claws.

"Bang!"

Mu Ling heard the prestige and hurriedly covered the child's eyes. There was a piercing laugh from the city wall, and the blood from under the old man's body slowly flowed out, and his eyes were still looking at his grandson, as if he was entrusting all his hopes of life to the child.

The Tule army rampantly laughed at Mu Lingci's stupidity, and Mu Lingci's scarlet eyes looked at the group of Tule people who were inferior to the beasts, and his heart seemed to have been stabbed several times.

At this moment, the child in his arms suddenly convulsed, rolled his eyes, and closed his eyes without struggling twice. He was helpless to hold the child in his arms, and could only watch him die in front of him.

"Do you still like this meeting gift, Marshal Mu?" Ashinacomo laughed wildly, like a bloodthirsty demon looking down on the world.

Mu Lingci's hands were trembling while holding the child in his arms, and he handed the dead child to Leji, "Bury it well." ”

"Yes." Leji stretched out his hands, took a deep breath and took the child over.

The Northern Saint Army watched the innocent people they had sworn to protect being so brutalized, and they all clenched their fists one by one, and when Mu Ling gave an order, they would hold butcher knives and slash the enemy army.

Shen Jinfeng on the side showed a weird smile.

Mu Lingci trembled and pulled out the knife from his waist, his eyes stared at Ashinakomo like a cold pool, and he raised the big knife and shouted, "Kill!" ”

Tens of thousands of soldiers behind him heard the order and took up their weapons one after another.

The soldiers shouted: "Kill! ”

Qi Qi rushed towards the enemy-controlled Huizhou City, and suddenly the sound of iron armor rubbing and soldiers roaring outside the city sounded. The voice was like a hand stretched out to hell, and the people of Huizhou, who were bullied by the Turkish army, were instantly filled with hope.

The Turle archers on the city walls were already ready to shoot, full of bows and arrows to fire volleys. In an instant, countless arrows flew in the sky, and the Northern Saint Army formed a huge protective array with shields in hand, blocking all the arrows of the Tule Army.

Under the cover of the infantry's shields, the three catapults of the Northern Saint Army moved forward step by step, stopped nearly three hundred paces away from the city gate, and smashed the three stones at the same time, impartially smashing on the body of the Tule army.

The Turk army suffered heavy losses in an instant, taking advantage of this gap, the crossbow went into battle, and several arrows were fired in unison, only to see a rain of arrows shooting in the direction of the Turk army.

Ashinakomo swung his scimitar to block the rain of arrows, but the Turks around him were knocked down by several of them, and the city wall was instantly covered with dead corpses.

Just as the Northern Saint Army was attacking strongly, Mu Lingci suddenly shouted, "Stop!" ”

I saw the flag of the Northern Holy Army waving and issuing a flag order to the soldiers, and the stone throwing cart and the crossbow hurriedly stopped the attack.

When the soldiers looked up to the city wall, they found that there was already a row of people from Huizhou who were firmly tied up with grizzled faces and sad expressions.

The people knew that they were hostages used by the Tule army to hold the Northern Saint Army hostage, and they also knew that they were likely to be killed by the Northern Saint soldiers who came to protect them, so they all had the heart of death.

The soldiers of the Northern Saint watched their compatriots being held hostage, holding the weapons in their hands but unable to do anything.

The Tule army was happy, and they were sure that the Northern Holy Army would not kill their own people, so they blocked the people of Jiangzhou in front of them and made human shields.

"Generals! Leave us alone! Kill these brutes! ”

Suddenly, a woman in the middle of the line shouted.
