It was nearly dusk, and the sun was setting in the west. A group of people along the bank of the Han River to trace the river, and then go west about more than 20 miles, is the Huzhou important town of Liangxiang, the two cities are each other's horns, more than 100,000 soldiers, not only Huzhou town, but also known as the gateway of the southeast half of the country, the location is dangerous, it is the place where the soldiers of the past dynasties must fight.

If Jiangdu is the most prosperous place in the southeast, then Xiangyang City in the two Xiangxiang is the first hundred battles in the southeast, and the wars that have occurred here are not inferior to the Xiongcheng Zhongdu in the northwest. Now the Jiangnan Houjun Governor's Mansion is located in Xiangyang City, after the defeat of the Jiangnan Naval Division, the vitality of the entire Jiangnan Houjun was greatly injured, and its remaining forces all shrank to the Liangxiang area, holding on, far away with Sun Shaotang's Shu army in the White Emperor City, echoing each other, if the Wei army dares to attack the city easily, then Sun Shaotang's Shu army can go down the river, and the Jiangnan Houjun who sticks to the two Xiangxiang form a front and rear encirclement trend, so Xiao Jin after the battle of Dongting Lake, although he has taken most of Huzhou, and isolated Jiangzhou, but it is still not a long time to launch the final general attack on the Jiangnan Houjun。

Because of this, the area around Liangxiang has long become noisy, except for the occasional army scout, there are no ordinary people waiting to come and go, so this line of people is particularly dazzling.

At this time, in addition to the woman who acted as a groom, there were five people in the carriage of the carriage, which was slightly crowded, but it was still beyond the tolerable range, in addition to a pair of masters and apprentices, there were three brothers and sisters who were from the same door, but the three of them had different expressions, the oldest man had a complicated expression, as if he was at war between heaven and man, and the younger man was pale and leaned on the only woman. As for the woman, her expression was more complicated than that of the older man, and when she lifted the curtain of the car and could see the Xiangyang City from afar, she showed a kind of relieved calm, just like a person who was sentenced to be beheaded after the autumn, and finally survived the bitter summer season, ushered in the autumn of slaughter, and the deadline was approaching, and her heart was like ashes.

The pair of apprentices couldn't help but glance at the woman, such a high-ranking Daomen fairy was reduced to a prisoner under the order, and he was about to be escorted to Xiangyang City, I don't know what kind of fate he would end?

He has heard a lot of stories since he was a child, but in troubled times, the fate of a woman is the most miserable, especially if she falls into the hands of the enemy, a death is the best ending, more life is better than death, and even if you can't survive, you can't die.

He turned his head to look at his master again, a little curious about what the master was going to do with these people.

Suddenly, the earth began to tremble, causing his atrium to contract violently.

However, this kind of vibration is different from the "one-hammer deal" when the two earth immortals fight, but many small vibrations are continuous, and little by little they accumulate into great shocks.

Zhang Yuping, who was temporarily acting as a coachman, stopped moving forward and stopped the carriage.

Li Shentong quickly reacted, this is a scene that only happens when the cavalry of the brigade is running, so it is someone from Xiangyang City who came to answer.

He immediately lifted the curtains.

Sure enough, the vibration became bigger and bigger, and there were hundreds of cavalry running all the way in sight, and there was still a distance of more than ten zhang from the carriage.

Seeing Li Shentong's stunned appearance, Xu Beiyou patted him on the shoulder and said with a light smile: "What is this, you have never seen the cavalry army in the northwest, that is the first cavalry army of our Great Qi." ”

With that, Xu Beiyou got up and got out of the car.

The first rider had already turned over and dismounted, and arched his hand forward and said, "Return to the south, it's been a long time." ”

Xu Beiyou smiled and bowed his hand and said, "Governor Lao Yu personally went out of the city to greet him." ”

Li Shentong, who got out of the car after Xu Beiyou, was stunned for a moment at first, and then he knew who the armored military general in front of him was, one of the five major left governors of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, and Yu Kuang, the left governor of the rear army who led the Jiangnan war and was also in charge of the military and political power in Huzhou.

In Jiangnan, you can not know who the Zuo Governor of the Northwest Left Army is who has the most soldiers, or you can not know who the Zuo Governor of the Zuo Governor of the Son of Heaven is, and even don't know who the Metropolitan Governor is, but you must not know who the Zuo Governor of the Jiangnan Rear Army is, after all, the county officials are not as good as the current management, especially the big salt merchants like the Li family, it is inevitable to deal with the local garrison, and naturally they can't get around this mountain, so Li Shentong heard his name when Yu Kuang was not in office, not to mention that his master and this Yu Governor have a good personal relationship.

Yu Kuang accompanied Xu Beiyou to the Xiangyang City that stood on the bank of the Han River, and now the entire southeast half of the wall is pressed on this city, so whenever Yu Kuang inadvertently looks at Xiangyang, his face and eyes will become extremely solemn.

Someone brought Li Shentong a white horse, and Li Shentong rode it unceremoniously, holding the reins in his hand, and he still looked like he was clamped between his legs. In terms of riding skills alone, Li Shentong, who was born in a wealthy family since he was a child, is better than Xu Beiyou, although Xu Beiyou's dream since childhood is to be able to live in a gorgeous mansion and ride a high-headed horse, but over the years, he has never learned to ride a horse, and most of the time he walks on foot. Of course, when it comes to Xu Beiyou's current realm, there is no need to ride a horse, even if it is a horse, no matter how irritable the wild horse is, it will be obedient.

After entering the city, someone received Li Shentong and other people, and Xu Beiyou went to his study with Yu Kuang.

The last time Xu Beiyou came to Xiangyang, he was invited by Yu Kuang, and later met Qingchen Dazhen outside Xiangyang City, and then there was a Buddha palm to support the Buddha Temple out of the water, now in retrospect, it was only two years, but it seemed like 20 years later, it was a long time ago.

When they came to the study, the two sat down separately, and Yu Kuang got straight to the point and said: "Nangui, you and I are considered to have met and intersected at the end of Weimo, and some things I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded and said, "Governor Yu just spoke." ”

Yu Kuang hesitated slightly, and asked: "Since Nangui is sitting here, and he is saying so, then many things that cannot be said can be said, I want to ask Nangui, what is the opinion of the imperial court on me? ”

◇。 Positive (version p; hair b0

Xu Beiyou said softly: "Yu Du Governor is too worried, since the death of Emperor Gao Zongsu, there has been a change in Fu Zhongtian, affecting the entire court and civil and military officials, at this time just after the civil strife was pacified, the Metropolitan Governor was unfortunately martyred, and the temple is still too busy to take care of itself, so naturally you can't point too much fingers at the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, so this southeast half of the wall still depends on the Yu Du Governor to maintain it." ”

Yu Kuang hesitated: "But Dongting Lake is defeated......

Xu Beiyou waved his hand and said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, besides, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and this ending is also expected by the princes of the temple, so Yu Du Governor should not blame himself, now the court is the time to employ people, and can still tolerate a Wei Wuji, how can you not tolerate you Yu Kuang? ”

Yu Kuang was a little relieved, and took a sip of tea from the teacup on the table.

Xu Beiyou didn't say much, and drank tea silently with the veteran who supported the southeast half of the wall.

In the end, Yu Kuang asked again, "Nangui, now above the temple, the two Majesties Taizong and Gaozong have passed away, Gaozong has no children under his knees, and there is no successor." Looking at the kings again, King Zhao is dead, King Yan is deposed, may I ask who is in charge of this court? Is it Han Ge Lao, or ......?"

Xu Beiyou was silent for a moment and replied, "It's Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
