Chapter 306: The inside should be combined with the outside
The seven families have been operating in Lingyang for a long time, their forces are intertwined, and there are countless marriages between each other, and it is not strange that Lu Jin's granddaughter-in-law is a member of the Shangguan family, in fact, the Ouyang family, the Xie family and the Shangguan family also have in-law connections.
However, this time Shangguan was in civil strife, and in order to stabilize people's hearts, the collateral involvement of the Shangguan family was not very large.
But to say that Lu Jin's granddaughter-in-law has different intentions because of the destruction of her family, it is not impossible to lure the wolf into the house.
Everyone could understand what Xie Ling meant, Qin Yun said: "Since this is the case, then we can't act rashly, we must try to select experts to supervise, so as to prevent the grass from startling the snake!"
"Qin Shaoxia is reasonable, I mean to leave this matter to you to master, we are at your disposal, what do you think?" Ouyang Changtian asked with a smile.
Let me be in charge?
Qin Yun was very surprised, he looked at Li Jin, Xie Ling and the others, everyone's expressions were similar.
In fact, Li Jin and the others were both surprised by Ouyang Changtian's sudden proposal, and they also felt that it was reasonable.
From the beginning of the suppression of the civil strife in the Shangguan family, Qin Yun proved his strength with seemingly incredible things, killing Shangguan Wuyan, refining the best talismans, subduing the sunset divine skill, and destroying the masters of the Chu army with a sword
It is no exaggeration to say that if there was no Qin Yun, Shangguan Wuji's conspiracy would very likely succeed, and the current Ling Yang might have fallen, and he was even more indispensable to being able to repel the strong attack of the Chu army today.
If it was just high strength, they might not be willing to let Qin Yun preside over the overall situation, but it could be seen from Qin Yun's performance just now. Although he is young, he has a clear mind and extraordinary experience, and he analyzes this matter to the head, and he is completely free from the immaturity and frizz of a young man.
Could it be that the disciples of the Heavenly City Sword Sect were all such geniuses? Many people had a strange feeling in their hearts.
Ouyang Changtian didn't wait for Qin Yun to answer, and directly clapped his decision: "Then it's decided!"
Since there was no objection, Qin Yun felt that there was no need for him to be hypocritical, whether it was killing the enemy on the city wall. is still cleaning up thieves and spies in the city, all to protect the relatives and family of Master Shui Wanning, and also to protect the 300,000 innocent people up and down Lingyang.
"Good!" he agreed!
.........
Lingyang West City. The Lu family's mansion.
The Lu family is a famous local family in Lingyang, and when Lingyang was captured by Dachu, it was out of the need to calm people's hearts. The Lu family did not suffer much embarrassment and calamity, and the people of the Zidi clan had a lot of power.
The night was dark, and the lights were still on in the inner room of one of the annexes of the mansion, and a beautiful woman in palace costume sat on a brocade chair, and a gray-clothed servant woman poured hot tea for two uninvited guests.
One of the two late-night visitors was a beautiful woman, slender and graceful, but in the middle of winter, she wore a tight skirt with her arms and legs exposed, and her snow-white neck and wrists and ankles were adorned with fine silver ornaments.
She has an indigo tattoo on her left cheek that resembles a petal branch that extends down to her neck, giving the impression of beauty and bewitching. She is a Miao girl.
Miao Nu's companion was a young man with a gloomy face, with a sturdy physique and a black robe, his bare head and face tattooed with countless dark blue ornaments, and a pair of slender eyes that shone with a snake-like cold light.
When the servant woman poured the tea and retreated to the side, the palace beauty said in a deep voice: "Both of them are masters of the Miao family. Sneaking into Lingyang at risk must have something big to do, although I, Shangguan Yunxia, am small and weak, but where I can use it, the two of you can speak!"
This palace beauty is Shangguan Yunxia, the eldest grandson and daughter-in-law of the Lu family, and she didn't expect that someone would secretly find her at this time, and it was also two black seedlings.
Shangguan Yunxia was born in everyone. She was definitely not the kind of ignorant village woman, after the initial shock and panic, she quickly calmed down: "The two of you must have entered the Lu Mansion through the secret passage of the Lu family, right?
The location of the Lu family's secret passage is a secret in the family, but Shangguan Yunxia has been married to the Lu family for nearly ten years, and she has long known this secret and told her family, and she also knows that many people in the Shangguan family have escaped, and the other party sneaked in so unknowingly to find herself, and she must be inseparable from the fleeing clansmen.
The glamorous Miao girl and the black-robed man glanced at each other, and the former smiled: "Mrs. Lu is really smart, your younger brother Shangguan Aoyang asked me to bring you a few words, they are all in the Great Chu Army now, and it is safe to have the ancestors of the Shangguan family to take care of them, just wait for the capture of Lingyang to avenge the clansmen, please rest assured!"
Hearing Shangguan Aoyang's name, Shangguan Yunxia's face was filled with excitement.
She and Shangguan Aoyang are half-siblings, although one has a concubine and a son-in-law, but the sister-brother friendship between the two is very deep, and when she heard that Shangguan Aoyang was safe and sound, she immediately let go of most of her heart.
The glamorous Miao girl continued: "Since Mrs. Lu is willing to help us, it is no better, in fact, we did not venture here to do anything big, the most important thing is to take a few people back. ”
"Don't call me Mrs. Lu, now the Lu family treats me as a disaster, and even my husband has moved out with the children, if you leave, take me with you!" Shangguan Yunxia smiled bitterly: "Who do you want to find?"
"You don't have to worry about this, you just need to cover the two of us, and we have our own way to find someone" The glamorous Miao girl said: "It's okay to take you away when the time comes!"
"That's no problem!" Shangguan Yunxia said without hesitation: "Although I am losing ground in the Lu family now, it is very simple to cover the two of you, no one usually comes to this courtyard, you can live here with peace of mind, if you need anything, just tell Aunt Fang to do it." ”
She pointed to the servant woman standing next to her and said, "Aunt Fang is the personal person I brought from Shangguan's house. ”
Shangguan Yunxia dared to let this servant woman stay here, and there was naturally no problem with loyalty.
The glamorous Miao girl nodded and said, "Then you prepare a few sets of clothes for us to wear by the servants and maids, and I will talk about the rest." ”
"The clothes are very simple, it's just your appearance," Shangguan Yunxia hesitated.
The tattoos on the faces of the two are too conspicuous, and it is impossible to hide their identities when they change into ordinary clothes.
The glamorous Miao girl smiled and didn't speak, but the tattoos on her face gradually faded and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Look, it's easy!" she said.
Shangguan Yunxia didn't hesitate any longer: "Okay, I'll let Aunt Fang send it over later, the two of you will live here first, I am in the wing room opposite next door, and I can greet you at any time if you have something." ”
She stood up and bowed, then turned to leave.
As soon as she walked to the door, the glamorous Miao girl suddenly said: "Miss Shangguan, the stakes are very high, I have put a heart on you, but don't worry, if it's okay, it won't hurt you." ”
Shangguan Yunxia's delicate body was shocked, and then she smiled bitterly: "I can understand, Your Excellency can rest assured!"
When she had said that, she took the servant woman and left without looking back.
After the two of them walked away, the black-robed man said gloomily, "This woman can't be trusted. ”
The glamorous Miao girl played with a wisp of green silk hanging down her chest, and said lightly: "I know, although she is from the Shangguan family, she has been married to the Lu family for ten years, and she has been married for 100 days a day, not to mention that she has two children." ”
"But I don't expect her to play any tricks, as long as we find someone from the Blue Lotus Sect, we'll leave. ”
The black-robed man's eyes flashed: "What about the blood Gu?"
"I'll go find someone, you come to set up the formation, but you must be careful not to make a big noise" The glamorous Miao Nu said in a deep voice: "There are also many masters in Lingyang City, especially Lu Lao Dao in the city who returns to Longguan is unfathomable, even my master does not dare to underestimate it, you don't want to give your life carelessly." ”
The black-robed man sneered: "What are you afraid of him, the blood Gu refined by Shizun himself is the most hidden and difficult to prevent, and when that old Taoist discovers it, I am afraid that the entire city has already spread it, and the credit for capturing Ling Yang will have to fall on us!"
There was an indescribable arrogance in his words, and the glamorous Miao girl frowned, but she didn't say anything, but her eyes looked out the window.
At this time, the night was thick, the full moon on the sky was obscured by dark clouds, and Lingyang City was quiet under the darkness.
Under the darkness of the night, I don't know how many things are quietly happening.
The next morning, the Great Yan Southern Xinjiang Fortress woke up to the sound of frequent horns.
The Chu army attacked again, seemingly not intending to give Ling Yang too much respite.
It's just that unlike yesterday's madness, the Flying Tiger Legion no longer uses crowd tactics, but mobilizes a large number of catapults to bombard the city wall, intending to destroy the fortifications and ballista equipment deployed on the city wall as much as possible.
For a moment, the sky was filled with raindrops of stone and oil bombs, so that the defenders could barely raise their heads.
The Flying Tiger Legion's attack direction was no longer limited to the southern city wall, but was tested from the east and west cities at the same time, and the battalion put on a posture of long-term siege step by step.
The battle lasted from morning to dusk, and the Chu army did not dispatch the elite main force, and always let the Cheng Xia army act as cannon fodder to repeatedly attack, until it was almost dark before thousands of Flying Tiger soldiers were sent to attack it.
However, the Lingyang city guards were very stable under the command of Li Jin, using catapults and ballistas to fiercely counterattack the enemy's attack, and after a day of fierce fighting, the Chu army left at least 3,000 corpses under the city walls, and finally did not achieve any results and returned to the camp.
At the height of the battle, the side door of the old alley in the backyard of the Lu family's mansion in the west of the city quietly opened, and a girl dressed as a headscarf and a maid walked out of it with a bamboo basket.
She walked straight out into the street, looked left and right for a moment, carefully avoiding the patrolling soldiers, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
It's just that this girl didn't know that her every move fell into Qin Yun's eyes!
