"Report to your lordship, the latest news from Qixing County is that the Northern Wei Dynasty Criminal Luan Department suddenly broke through Caiyang County and Shangchuan County with heavy troops, and Deguang County is in danger. ”

"General Zhang Huishao broke through the Tianluo Department of Pengbei Wei and annihilated more than 10,000 enemy cavalry. ”

There is a courtyard in the city of Gaotang County that is heavily guarded, and in one of the largest quiet rooms, Zong Fengyang sat behind a long table and looked at the tens of dossiers sent in the early morning, and there were two subordinates in front of him, dictating some important military information that needed to be told in advance.

Jiangzhou Gaotang County's geographical location in the Southern Dynasties was not important before, but after the intensification of the war between the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties, Gaotang County has become a fortress connecting the central and northern parts of the Southern Dynasties.

This courtyard is where the Military Intelligence Department of the Ministry of War is located, and Zong Fengyang was specially transferred from the Military Intelligence Department from the Tianmi Academy in Jiankang City, which is an institution that specializes in compiling military intelligence briefings to the emperor.

Judging from the adjustment and design of Emperor Xiao Yan's entire dynasty elite, it is very likely that these people in the Tianmi Academy will also become scholars around the emperor in the future, become strategists who help him give advice, or become the heads of various divisions.

Such a person, even if he does not have to do anything too amazing, as long as he follows the rules, shows enough diligence and dedication to his duties, he will definitely have a very bright future.

There are some houses in front of this courtyard, and some flowers are clinging to the walls.

Even in Jiankang in the Southern Dynasties, the climate is not warm enough, and the Lingxiao flowers are not suitable for growth, and they are rarely seen in the streets and alleys.

The few Lingxiao flowers clinging to the walls of these houses here have obviously grown for seven or eight years, and the stems are thick enough, but compared to the Lingxiao flowers that grow in the warm land of the real south in all seasons, they still seem too languishing, and they always seem to lack some color.

A cloth-clothed girl with a sword was walking by the side of these Lingxiao flowers at this time.

This girl is very tall, although she does not look stout, but it does not give people a feeling of thinness, her facial features are not very good-looking, but they are extraordinarily three-dimensional, with sharp edges and corners, her lips are slightly thick, at this time her face is cold, but there is some emotion in her eyes.

Who would have thought that such a Southern Dynasty official with such a brilliant future would be a secret agent of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

......

Zong Fengyang is not only diligent, he has performed extremely well in the Tianmi Academy and the military intelligence department at this time.

If nothing else, he should be transferred back to Jiankang in the autumn of this year to take on a more important position.

It's just that the girl who appeared today was an accident.

A subordinate pushed the door in, came to the table, and whispered, "Ni Yunshan asks to see your lord." ”

Zong Fengyang's fingers were flipped through the dossier and paused, and then raised his head.

Any line of work that can reach the first position will be somewhat famous, let alone the first in the world of cultivators.

This girl, who was the first among the new generation of cultivators after the birth of the new dynasty, was too famous, and Zong Fengyang naturally knew a lot about her.

It's just that he is famous, but he doesn't necessarily have to see it.

"Nope. ”

He paused for a breath before speaking.

"I can't see it. ”

This subordinate of his took a deep breath and said, "She brought General Dingyuan's hand to come over, and the passage is unimpeded." Even if you can't say so, she's still here. ”

Zong Fengyang's brows furrowed deeply, and then he stood up and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

Since you can't see each other, the report just shows that the other party is polite, then you can only see each other.

On the bluestone road outside the courtyard gate, he met the legendary girl.

High, without any too sharp aura, just casually, standing there like a tourist.

"It's really tall, how can there be such a tall woman. ”

At the first sight of Ni Yunshan, he was a little stunned, and he couldn't help but have such thoughts in his mind.

Too much taller than ordinary people, almost no other girl is taller than her... This is also a trait.

Even though she didn't show any cultivator's aura at all at this time, even though she was very much like an ordinary passerby, Zong Fengyang had already felt the difference in her.

There were no words to identify themselves, and since both of them knew who the other was, according to their temperaments, neither of them said much.

Zong Fengyang walked out of the courtyard gate and bowed his head.

Ni Yunshan held the junior salute and bowed slightly.

"What's the matter?" Zong Fengyang looked at her and asked.

"Why do you do things for the Northern Wei Dynasty?" Ni Yunshan's expression did not change, and the way she looked at Zong Fengyang's eyes was almost no different from looking at those Ling Xiaohua who did not grow well, but they did not need to fight for their lives. Because her lips are a little thick, even if she asks such a sentence directly, her expression is still generous, and she still feels like a passerby asking a very common thing, asking why there is no salt in the beef in the store.

Zong Fengyang fell silent.

His expression was a little tired, but there was no special change in his expression.

"All of them?" he said, after counting the hours.

Ni Yunshan nodded, "General Dingyuan's evidence is conclusive, and a piece of evidence should be in Jiankang City now." ”

Zong Fengyang also nodded, "Then why did you come to me alone?"

Ni Yunshan said: "I will join the Dingyuan Army in the future, so I asked General Dingyuan about it." I can keep your family, but you also have to do something for me. ”

The look in Zong Fengyang's eyes suddenly became strange, he looked at Ni Yunshan, and didn't ask anything else, but asked, "Do you think our Southern Dynasty can win this battle?"

Ni Yunshan said: "There is no definite outcome of the victory, you should want to ask, I think the Northern Wei Dynasty or the Southern Dynasty has a better chance of winning." ”

Zong Fengyang said: "That's right. ”

"In all fairness, the Northern Wei Dynasty has a much better chance of winning. Ni Yunshan looked at Zong Fengyang and said, "Could it be that you have no confidence in our dynasty because you bet your fate and future on the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

"Putting aside the problem of personal emotions, in my opinion, the chances of the Northern Wei Dynasty defeating the previous dynasty are far greater than the success of Xiao Yan's mutiny. My choice is largely based on my own judgment. Zong Fengyang said: "What do you want me to do?"

"Fight me fairly, kill me, or be killed by me. Ni Yunshan said calmly: "But in my opinion, the possibility of you killing me is also very small. ”

Zong Fengyang was a little stunned, it was impossible for him to reveal the Northern Wei secret agents who had contact with him and the channels for confessing information exchanges, but he never thought that the other party would just make such a request.

"Why?" he asked, puzzled.

"Your official position is high enough now, and you are from the Qiyun Academy of the former dynasty, and ten years ago, you were also recognized as the best among the talented young generation of the Southern Dynasty like me. Ni Yunshan said: "Killing you is enough to cause a sensation, and no one should suspect that I am the first person in this generation of cultivators, and then I can do another big thing that I want to do." ”
