Quyang.

A heavy rain washed away the mottled blood of a day and a night.

In the distance, a group of men and horses rushed out of the rain curtain and quickly entered the city.

"Young master, the people have been brought back, as you expected, they are hiding in Li Village, ten miles away." Chang An strode in with a body of water.

"Huh?" Lu Zhong raised his eyebrows lightly: "Is it really nearby?" Can the grain and grass come with him? The goal is too big, it probably won't. ”

"Except for Zhao Yan and a few of his own soldiers, nothing else has been found yet."

"Who is he instructed to be?"

Chang An shook his head: "I didn't say a word, but I kept shouting that he was framed, he was the son of the world, and we have no right to interrogate." ”

Lu Zhong got up from behind the case: "Let's go, I'll go see him." ”

In the cell, Zhao Yan glared angrily at the two guards: "Blind your dog's eyes!" Those who know each other hurry up and let go of this world, otherwise you don't know how you died! ”

The two guards stood straight, deaf to his words.

"Shizi seems to be in good spirits." Lu Zhong came in from outside, pulled a chair and sat down across from him.

"Lu Zhong?" Seeing him, Zhao Yan's expression was slightly sluggish, and his arrogance weakened a little.

"The loss of grain and grass has nothing to do with me, I was ordered by the emperor to escort grain and grass, who knew that I was ambushed halfway, if it wasn't for the desperate escort of the guards, I'm afraid I would have died halfway."

"Do you know how many soldiers of the Zhenxi Army died tragically because of you? My uncle broke his legs because of this. ”

"I've already said this, and I'm also a victim."

Lu Chong's fingers scraped his eyebrows twice: "Tsk, if you don't explain honestly, it will be difficult for me to do it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two guards stepped forward and carried him to leave his seat.

Zhao Yan's color changed: "Lu Chong, what are you going to do?" Let me tell you, I am the prince of Chengbohou, and my aunt is the concubine of the dynasty, do you dare to touch me? ”

Lu Zhong leaned forward, supported his knee with one hand, and his gaze suddenly sharpened.

"You messed up your errand, lost grain and grass, delayed the military situation, and killed more than half of the Quyang defenders, just these are how many heads you have to lose!"

Zhao Yan broke away from the guards, and said disdainfully: "Don't scare me here, you are obviously in Cloud City, why are you here?" I disobeyed the military order and left my post without permission, and you dare to interrogate me? Lu Qi lost the battle because he didn't have the ability to do it himself, and he wanted to drag me into the water, so first ask Your Majesty and the concubine if they agree! ”

"Will be outside, the king's order is not subject to it, I want to touch you, who dares to stop you?"

Lu Zhong said and got up: "Take it down first to beat a hundred military sticks, if you don't die, then let Your Majesty deal with it after entering Beijing." ”

Chang An whispered: "Young master, will a hundred military sticks be too heavy?" No one in the army can stand it, in case they kill someone......"

Zhao Yan struggled and roared: "Lu Chong, if you really want Your Majesty to favor you, you can be lawless?" I have already sent a letter to Kyoto to ask for sin, and the holy decree will come soon, and if you dare to lynch it, you will disobey the holy decree! ”

Lu Zhong glanced at him and smiled: "Hmm, why don't you take advantage of the fact that the holy decree has not arrived, and quickly drag people out for me?" ”

The two guards received the order and immediately escorted the people out.

Not long after, Zhao Yan's screams came from outside.

Chang An worried: "Zhao Shizi's identity is special, Your Majesty will personally inquire into this matter, you made a mistake before you were punished to Shouyun City, in case you are investigated......"

Lu Zhong raised his head and fought for days, causing a layer of cyan stubble to emerge from his resolute chin, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.

"According to Your Majesty's temperament, this matter will definitely turn into a big thing in the end, the Zhenxi Army has suffered heavy casualties, and my uncle has not woken up yet, there must be someone behind this who is secretly operating, and this matter can't be just settled."

While the two were talking, a soldier came to report that Zhao Yan had recruited ......

On the outskirts of Quyang, an inconspicuous carriage stopped beside the sheep intestine path, and after a while, a middle-aged man ran over with a panicked expression.

"Lu Chong is here, he only brought more than 100 people to dare to break into the enemy camp at night to capture the enemy generals and reverse the defeat of Quyang...... In the unlikely event that it is traced to me, I am afraid that sooner or later, according to his ability, it will find you here. ”

The curtain of the car was lifted, and a cold-skinned, delicate-looking face was revealed: "Don't worry, I have already arranged your way, there is some entanglement here, you go out first to avoid it, and I will take the initiative to contact you when something happens." ”

The middle-aged man was overjoyed, hurriedly took his things and said goodbye, and then turned around to leave.

However, he had only walked out a few steps before his back suddenly cooled, and then the whole person slowly collapsed......

The heavy rain dripped down Zhao Yan's face, and the back of his waist was still hot and painful.

Since childhood, where has he suffered such hardships, more than a dozen boards went down, and he cried his father and shouted for his mother and began to beg for mercy.

"Lu Chong, you are ruthless and can't die well. When I enter Beijing, I must go to the Holy Lord and sue you severely! ”

Lu Zhong stood under the porch, his upright posture like a narrow knife tucked in a sheath.

"Keep fighting."

As the rain fell, there was soon a dull crackling sound of sticks hitting the flesh again.

"I said, I said, I have a gentleman surnamed Zhang......" Zhao Yan was overwhelmed and finally spit out a sentence.

But halfway through the words, the whole person screamed in pain as if someone had choked his throat.

Lu Chong's expression changed, and he rushed to the front with an arrow step, but Zhao Yan suddenly twitched, and he just opened his eyes wide and lost his breath.

Chang An was shocked after probing the artery in Zhao Yan's neck: "Young master? ”

However, there are only a dozen boards, and their people control the strength, not to mention the dead, even if they are disabled, it is impossible.

But the man died right in front of his eyes.

The prince of Houfu, the concubine's nephew, if this matter is spread out, it will definitely not be good.

"What do we do now?"

Lu Zhong raised his hand to wipe the rain on his face, cursed a dirty word in his mouth, and said sharply: "What are you still doing in a daze, go and call Lao Cai to come over and find out the cause of death." ”

……

"It's raining!"

The hungry and thirsty earth was greedily absorbing the blessings of God, Li Guilan and the others happily took out pots and pans, regardless of the heavy rain, and sent them all outside to receive water.

There are a total of fifteen houses in Heishui Village, and so many people came to Hula at once, and ten were distributed to Shenjia Village, and the brothers in the village could only squeeze in the remaining five rooms aggrievedly.

Yang Chuan sat on the chair, his face was calm, and he squeezed out a sentence for a while: "Hurry up when the rain stops, we don't have any food left here to entertain you." ”

Losing to a little girl, now he is not happy in his heart.

Shen Xinyue touched the little yellow hair of her little sister Shen Jiyue, raised her head and said, "Not only is it to hide from the rain, but how can you let Yang Da be in charge." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Shen Yingyue: "It just so happens that the charcoal basin is lit on fire, so let's roast a few sweet potatoes and potatoes to eat." ”

Seeing them take out the food, the mountain bandits in the cottage stared at it.

The naked gaze made the Shen Yingyue sisters very uncomfortable.

"Ahem!" Yang Chuan coughed vigorously, and the group of subordinates only restrained a little.
