Chapter 24: Good luck for dogs

CHAPTER XXIV

As he spoke, a soldier took out a seizure document plastered with Jingbei City and handed it to the halberd bearer.

Lin Anyan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat at the moment.

He knew the halberd bearer in front of him, this person's name was Han Yuancai, and he was considered a personal disciple of King Zhennan.

It stands to reason that the generals who followed Jiang Fengyang, the king of Zhennan, were the worst who could also seal one side too much.

As a personal disciple of King Zhennan, Han Won was appointed Minister of Health in his early years, in charge of 200,000 Kyoto forbidden troops.

However, because he was too upright, when he was in power, he did not know how many children of officials and eunuchs were arrested by him on various charges.

But none of that has brought him to where he is today.

What really made him deposed was the Chishui War.

At that time, Han Yuan was in charge of all the grain and grass transported from Jingbei City to the front line, and in order to ensure that King Zhennan had no worries about the grain and grass on the front line, he even did not hesitate to open the warehouse door of the disaster relief grain.

Seeing that the relief granary was being emptied day by day, the civil officials of Jingbei City were anxious, and many of them were united by the old and lost children who were killed by Han Woncai and prepared to impeach the matter.

But literati always have to be much more elegant in doing things.

They even, Han Yuancai, as Jiang Fengyang's personal disciple, was definitely protected by the emperor during the war.

Therefore, they simply did not do anything, and the 36 people led by the crown prince and the prince of the dynasty jointly impeached Jiang Fengyang, who was still the general of Zhennan at that time, and made great achievements.

As long as the impeachment is successful, the Battle of Chishui will have no results, and even if Jiang Fengyang does not fall at that time, who will be able to protect this Minister of Health who dares to open the door of the granary for disaster relief?

However, what these thirty-six people didn't expect was that the day after they played the impeachment of Jiang Fengyang, a coffin was erected outside the Taiji Hall.

Han Yuan carried the coffin and died.

As Jiang Fengyang's personal disciple, Han Yuancai, under the indifferent gaze of the emperor, analyzed the six wins, six defeats and twelve results of the Battle of Chishui, and finally concluded that the Battle of Chishui could be lost and not withdrawn.

No one knows if the emperor really listened to the theory of six wins and six defeats.

The world only knows that after the Battle of Chishui, even the 36 people who impeached Jiang Fengyang at the beginning were promoted to one level because they "cared about the war and shared worries for the country".

Only Han Won was demoted to the rank of halberd-wielding general.

Faced with such a person who dared to threaten the emperor with his life, Lin Anyan really had no choice at the moment.

Seeing that Han Yuancai was holding the arrest paperwork, he paced around Qi Liyun in a circle, and every foot seemed to step on Lin Anyan's heartbeat.

At this time, Qi Liyun was looking around seemingly indifferently, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

In fact, she was observing every corner of the Shenwu Gate Tower.

Although relying on Tie Qimen's unique mental method, Qi Liyun, who has no internal strength, can still move forward against the wind within ten miles, but she definitely can't escape alone.

She was looking for a flaw that would allow her to leave Jingbei City with Lin Anyan at the moment she was arrested again.

But after looking for a long time, Qi Liyun frowned helplessly.

Although she didn't know Han Yuancai, she could see that the arrangement of troops on the Shenwu Gate must have been done by a master.

There were only thirty halberd-wielding langs, and they actually defended the entire Shenwu Gate from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside.

Just as Qi Liyun was unwillingly carefully inspecting the guards' arrangement, Han Yuan grabbed her reins and said in a calm but serious tone:

"Lin Gongzi, I'm sorry, the woman you brought is somewhat similar to the murderer being arrested by the imperial court, and the villain has to be brought back for interrogation. ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Lin Anyan to stop him, the ten halberd-wielding men guarding the gate of the Shenwu Gate instantly surrounded Qi Liyun.

Just when Lin Anyan and Qi Liyun were a little flustered and didn't know what to do, they saw a white horse galloping in the city.

"Han Yuancai, the king of Zhennan has an order, and immediately take people back to the Taiji Hall to guard the emperor. ”

Han Yuancai looked at the young man on the back of the white horse, frowned, and did not salute, but asked directly and simply:

"His Royal Highness said that the king of Zhennan has an order, but there is an edict?"

Jiang Zifu, who had been at odds with this father's disciple since he was a child, looked at Han Yuancai coldly.

"There is an assassination in the Taiji Palace, the matter is urgent, there has been no handwriting, you go back and see my father with me, naturally everything is clear. ”

Han Yuan looked at Jiang Zifu and then looked back at Lin Anyan.

He was well aware of the inseparable relationship between these two gentlemen of Jingbei City.

But he also knew very well that with Jiang Zifu's ten guts, he didn't dare to use the assassination as an excuse to support the halberd bearer.

Han Yuan is just not clear that Jingbei City has been safe for twenty years, why someone happened to assassinate at this point in time.

But it was a matter of the emperor's life, and Han Yuan didn't dare to delay too much, so he had to arrange two halberd-wielding men to stay in place, optimistic about Lin Anyan, Qi and Liyun waiting for him to come back.

Who knew that he was just about to leave when he was stopped by Jiang Zifu.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? The king of Zhennan has an order, and all the halberders will return to the palace to protect them. ”

"Returning to His Royal Highness, this woman is a little similar to the criminal who has been pursued by the imperial court recently, and the lower officials feel the need to arrest her for interrogation. ”

"All the halberd bearers, go back to the palace to guard. ”

Listening to Jiang Zifu deliberately bite out the word "all", Han Yuan stared at His Royal Highness the Prince in front of him, and gritted his back molars unwillingly.

"Han Yuancai, obey!"

After Han Yuan left with the halberd bearer, Jiang Fengyang hugged his fists and watched Lin Anyan and Qi Liyun leave Jingbei City.

In fact, he didn't expect to meet the two of them here, but maybe it was God's arrangement, after he found out that these two people were entangled by the halberd Lang, he simply used the matter of guarding the palace to relieve the siege for the two.

The assassination is true, and everything is false.

However, as soon as he thought of this, I am afraid that Lin Anyan would not mind the rudeness to his sister-in-law in the morning, Jiang Zifu couldn't help laughing.

.................................................................

"Alas, the Shenwu Gate is all built by my family, who can stop me. ”

Qi Liyun, who had just experienced a crisis, settled down at this moment, imitating Lin Anyan's tone and laughing at him.

Hearing this, Lin Anyan didn't care, but frowned, as if thinking about something.

"What's the matter, Master Lin, you haven't recovered from being scared?"

"No, I'm wondering why someone assassinated Jingbei City at this time after it has been quiet for twenty years. ”

Qi Liyun naturally understood the meaning of Lin Anyan's words.

"You mean, someone deliberately arranged this assassination to relieve the siege for the two of us? Who would be so bold, isn't it Old Man Lin?"

"No way. Lin Anyan shook his head firmly and said, "The people of my Lin Mansion definitely don't have the ability to assassinate the emperor." I think there's only one possibility. ”

"We are lucky, this kind of rare thing in 20 years has made us bump into each other. ”

Qi Liyun pursed his lips disdainfully, and no longer paid attention to Lin Anyan's hippie smile.

"Qi Nuxia, how are we going to go this way?"

"Go back to my house first. This road is difficult and dangerous, and we have to move some help. ”

After speaking, Qi Liyun galloped on his horse and ran in front of Lin Anyan in an instant.

"This is to compete with the master. ”

Lin Anyan, who has been extremely confident in equestrianism since childhood, smiled slightly, and rushed up with a "driving".

For the next few days, the two of you chased after me like this.

Because of Qi Liyun's special identity, the two avoided crowded places as much as possible along the way.

When you are hungry, you will eat some boiled dry cakes and bacon, and when you are sleepy, you will find a tree to lean on and take turns to watch the night.

Qi Liyun originally thought that Lin Anyan, a gentleman, would cry and shout to go home in less than two days, but he never expected that Lin Anyan was full of energy every day and seemed to have endless strength.

In the past few days, Lin Anyan has also been able to take the opportunity to ask many questions that have not been answered before.

For example, why is there still a remnant party in Tieqimen, which should have been wiped out.

Qi Liyun chewed the dry cake with some effort and looked at Lin Anyan by the bonfire.

"Several of my senior brothers and sisters, originally all from the Tieqimen, they were still very young at the time, and when your army of Daliang came, the master of the Tieqimen Gate ordered them to stay behind to protect the people. ”

"They rescued me as an infant and my parents probably died in the battle. ”

"Senior brothers and sisters took me, along with the remnants of a hundred or so Northern Qi people, to hide in a cellar in a small village outside the city. ”

"The fate that awaited us should have been to be discovered, arrested, and slaughtered by the soldiers of the Great Liang. ”

"But the advisor showed up, and it was he who saved us and brought us to the village where we now lived. ”

This is the first time Lin Anyan has heard Qi Liyun mention people other than his senior brothers and sisters, and he has a feeling that this so-called "military advisor" must have a lot of background, and he should be the leader of the entire Northern Qi Remnant Party.

And Qi Liyun's words confirmed his thoughts even more.

"The military advisor was actually the younger brother of the master of the Tieqi Gate at that time, and at the time of the war, he happened to be not in the Northern Qi Dynasty, so he escaped a catastrophe. ”

"After rescuing us, he and his brothers and sisters rebuilt the Tieqi Gate, and I was his first disciple. ”

"However, because there are only a few remnants of the people, most of them are still old, weak, sick and disabled, so far the military advisor has not confiscated the second disciple. ”

Then, Lin Anyan took the opportunity to ask Qi Liyun a lot of things about the past of Northern Qi.

But Qi Liyun has been wandering around with the military advisor and the rest of the remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty since she could remember, and finally settled, and she doesn't know much more about the Northern Qi than Lin Anyan.

On the contrary, Qi Liyun asked Lin Anyan a lot of questions.

For example, what makeup do women in Jingbei City like to wear, what clothes they wear, and where do they like to eat dim sum on weekdays;

For example, what do wealthy families like Lin Fu eat during the New Year, what are they particular about, and so on.

Anyway, Qi Liyun didn't leave the food in three sentences, and Lin Anyan, who asked, was really a little embarrassed.

However, he could feel that although the environment in which Qi Liyun lived was not difficult, he had to live carefully every day.

In fact, Lin Anyan is still very curious, this group of remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty also has hundreds of people, what do they rely on to eat and drink.

However, Qi Liyun said that she didn't know about this problem, she only knew that the military advisor would leave the village from time to time, and every time she came back, she would gain something.

Lin Anyan couldn't help but make up a bandit who blocked the mountain and blocked the road in his mind, holding a machete in his hand, shouting in his mouth to rob the rich and help the poor.

But it was he himself who was poor.

Thinking of this, Lin Anyan suddenly asked, "There is another question for Qi Nuxia to answer truthfully." ”

Qi Liyun glanced at Lin Anyan with disdain, with an expression that saw through everything.

"You want to ask me why Tieqimen wants to steal your town's mansion stone, right? ”

Qi Liyun thought he had guessed Lin Anyan's thoughts, but who knew that Lin Anyan shook his head and said seriously:

"Who cares about that broken stone but my dad. What I want to ask is, are there any of your senior sisters in Tieqimen who are beautiful? ”

Qi Liyun looked at Lin Anyan calmly, but saw an extremely serious face that she had never seen before.

"Hehe, Lin Anyan. You're looking for death!"
