Just as Ji Ye was on his way to Yu Country, the north behind him was also undergoing great changes.

Among them, Fang Yunjing fled back to the palace in embarrassment with several masters, as well as cavalry guards, and began to dispatch some of the guards of the northern border and various cities back to Beijing to discuss, preparing to rest for a period of time and then regroup and recover the lost territory. In this defeat, almost all 40,000 elite soldiers were lost, and none of the people who escaped from the siege were a big injury, but for the population of the vast land of Snow Country, it was not a big loss.

On the Siam side, the national teacher returned to Qingzhou with Fang Qiu and Burning Meng, and Burning Dream finally met Jiang Zhexian after a long absence.

After the two hugged each other for a while, Ran Meng told Jiang Zhexiong about the jade seal being stolen by Ji Ye on the way back, and as he spoke, he was aggrieved in his heart, and he cried with rain.

Jiang Zhexiong hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Sister Meng, don't take it to heart, the jade seal is just a symbolic thing, and it is harmless." Burning dreams gradually collected tears.

Subsequently, Siam gradually encroached on a large area between Qingzhou and Yanjing, although Jiang Zhexiong did not blame the burning dream, but because of the loss of the jade seal, several big cities refused to surrender, saying that after the death of the Snow Emperor, the great prince should ascend the throne, Siam had to send troops to besiege and even attack, losing tens of thousands of troops, so that the border was advanced to the Yanshan Mountains after two months.

And Fang Yu was also introduced by Chen Shu, and under the coercion and temptation, he also attracted several prefectures and pastors in the southwest and northwest, and quietly developed in the same way.

It stands to reason that with the expansion of the scale of private soldiers, paper can't contain the fire, and there will still be news after all, but now the attention of the entire northern border is attracted by the struggle between the two countries, and Fang Yun is extremely contemptuous of Fang Yu, so even if some of the ministers mention the phenomenon of private recruitment, they will turn a deaf ear.

Therefore, the three-legged momentum has begun to appear, but Fang Yu is a little small in the face of the two behemoths, but with his brilliant mind, holding the "Founding Classics" on the left side, and countless gold and silver in his hand, it will not take long for Fang Yun to face it squarely.

Besides, Ji Ye traveled south day and night, and fortunately, the horses under his body had excellent patience to withstand this long-term attack.

Ji Ye looked at the south, and returned to Yuguo on this trip, he always thought of Li Ruolin in his heart, but because she was about to get married, every time he thought about it, he was like a knife, and he didn't dare to face it.

After more than half a month, Ji Ye finally stepped into the border of Gangneung, and because he was reluctant to let this horse, he deliberately took a big boat to Gangneung Ferry Pass.

After several inquiries, Ji Ye came to the army, pretending to deliver a letter for Yang Ting. One of the generals informed him that General Yang had recently returned home, and that his mansion was thirty miles west of the place.

So Ji Ye rushed to the mansion as he said, and stayed in a nearby inn for the time being.

When he jumped into the courtyard wall of the mansion, he saw that although the Yang family's general's mansion was clean and tidy, it was far less rich and generous than their Li family's mansion in Kuizhou, and his disgust for Yang Ting in his heart was slightly reduced.

After Ji Ye came to the main house, he couldn't see any general through the crack in the window, only a slave and maid were cleaning in it, Ji Ye simply jumped in from the window, and before the slave and maid could scream, he covered her mouth, put a long sword to her throat, and threatened in a low voice: "I only ask you something, and when I let go, if you shout, I will kill you with a sword." ”

The slave's expression became more and more determined, and Ji Ye tried to let go of her hand and asked her, "Where is this master now?" ”

The slave and maid liberated their mouths, but raised their eyebrows and said coldly: "You villains want to persecute my master, even if you die, you will never let you succeed, let alone take away adultery!" She shouted loudly, "Come on!" Come on! ”

Seeing that she was actually such a reaction, Ji Ye panicked in his heart, and subconsciously stretched the blade forward to make a threatening shape, but who knew that the slave maid actually showed a resolute face, and her neck hit the blade directly.

The Rotten Ke Sword was so sharp, the maid's throat was cut in an instant, and blood spurted out, and before Ji Ye could react, he had fallen at his feet.

This change in the blink of an eye made Ji Ye unable to react, and he was stunned for a while, he only intended to ask where Yang Ting was, and he didn't have the idea of slaughtering, but this servant girl was so resolute and determined to kill herself, which really made him feel uneasy.

It's just that Ji Ye's heart is full of doubts, who is the 'you villains' that this servant girl said, and why did you mention adultery? She should have recognized me as someone else, and the guilt was even worse when she thought about it.

Just looking down at the corpse, the shouts and footsteps of several subordinates were heard in the distance outside the house, and Ji Ye saw that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, jumped out of the window, and jumped down the courtyard wall in three or two steps.

The two subordinates chased to the courtyard wall, and Ji Ye listened outside the courtyard wall, only to hear the two people say: "This thief is also better, and as soon as the shout came out, the figure disappeared in a blink of an eye." In the past few days, many maids have disappeared in our house, and according to others, a gang of bandits deliberately provoked and arrested young women in the house, most of whom were raped and played to death. ”

Another person said: "Looking at the death of Cuiguo cutting his throat in the main house, he must have been killed by desperate disobedience, and I don't know when our general will return, if the general is in the house, how can this gang of thieves be allowed to be presumptuous?" ”

It turned out that someone had been making trouble in the dark for the past few days, no wonder the servant girl reacted so violently, but this unintentional murder was to be borne by the gang of thieves, Ji Ye thought to himself. Besides, listening to the two of them, Yang Ting doesn't seem to be in the house, so it's better to go back to the inn first and explore it another day.

The next morning, Ji Ye went out of the inn to Yang Mansion again, but from a distance, he saw several elite soldiers in black shirts guarding the front of the mansion, and the mansion did not seem to be peaceful, Ji Ye clearly remembered that this black armor costume belonged to Yu Guo.

He felt that something had happened, so he went around the courtyard again and jumped down, but just as he saw a Yu soldier raising his sword and stabbing into the heart of a subordinate.

Yu Guobing personally killed and raped the civilians of his own country, isn't this exactly what Burning Meng said that the old man of Yuhuang, who lives in the imperial capital, can instruct? Ji Ye's mind flashed with a thought, and without verifying it, the long sword struck, and the tip of the sword slashed through Yu Guobing's throat, taking his life effortlessly in the blink of an eye.

After the battle of Yanjing, nearly a hundred people died at the hands of Ji Ye, and with more comprehension of the offensive sword intent of the nameless sword technique, even in the face of hundreds of ordinary soldiers, it was easy to solve it as smoothly as breathing.

Worried that what happened in this corner would be discovered and cause trouble, Ji Ye hurriedly left, but fortunately, it seemed that the battle in front of the courtyard had not completely touched the backyard, so Ji Ye came to the main house again.

Inside the main house, a middle-aged beautiful woman was holding a six- or seven-year-old child shivering, peeking outside the house from time to time.
