Xiangyang City, thousands of miles away from Lin'an City.

Returning here, Li Tingzhi didn't take a deep breath, it seemed that he could still feel the smell of gunpowder here, and on the mottled city wall, he also recorded the fierce battles, which made people look thrilling.

"Brother Xiangfu, I don't know what I gained from this trip?"

At that moment, a person walked out of the city gate and bowed down to Li Tingzhi.

"Brother Chu Ran, you also know the origin of that Xiao Feng. Like you, they are all people who have returned to the north. And in my court, I have always been antagonistic to the people who returned to the north, how can I easily agree?" Li Tingzhi couldn't help but shake his head, looking at the double ten young man in front of him, but he felt a little sad, and said: "Just as the general said. That Xiao Feng has now formed an opposition in the imperial court, not to mention the conclusion of an alliance, or whether it will be hostile, it is still unknown. What can you gain from looking like this?"

Jiang Cai smiled bitterly, touched the scar on his arm, but this scar was the injury he had suffered when he was captured by the Tatars, and sighed: "This is also true!" Thinking of his current situation, Fu You felt a little annoyed, and said indignantly: "I knew this was the case, I went directly to the Chifeng Army at the beginning, why did I come here?" seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and raised his head again and asked, "But when the time comes, will you hunt me down?"

"Don't worry. With your friendship with me, how can I drive you to your death?"

Li Tingzhi shook his head and vetoed, laughing at himself again: "It's just that when you plan to leave here, let me know." Is that okay?"

Others may not know, but Li Tingzhi understands that Jiang Cai's talent and martial arts are not inferior to himself, but because of his identity, he is rarely promoted, and he has always stayed in the identity of a defensive envoy, and has not been promoted and reused.

Shrugging his shoulders, Jiang Cai responded: "This is nature. Pointing to the tent camp in the distance, he commanded again: "Also, General Meng is waiting for your news." Don't slack off. Got it?"

Li Tingzhi replied with his head in his head: "Don't worry, I will tell General Meng everything about everything fifteen and ten." ”

Walking in from the city gate and coming to the yamen, Li Tingzhi was a little apprehensive.

He knew that the purpose of this trip was not ideal, at least for Meng Heng, because once the Song Dynasty and the Chifeng army clashed, then Xiangyang would have one more enemy out of thin air.

Originally, it was quite difficult to deal with Mongolia, if the Red Phoenix Army also raised troops to attack at this time, even if Meng Heng was a genius, how could he face enemies in two directions at the same time?

Stepping into the military tent, Li Tingzhi looked at Meng Heng in the distance, but found that Meng Heng was already frowning at the moment, obviously thinking about how to face it!

"Xiangfu. Can you tell me what Xiao Feng had in mind when he went to Lin'an City this time?" At this moment, Meng Heng in the distance raised his head slightly, and looked at Li Tingzhi with a clear gaze.

"General Meng. ”

Li Tingzhi immediately straightened his waist, bowed to Meng Heng, and said, "General." I'm really ashamed of your cultivation, and I haven't been as sharp-eyed as you are to see what Commander Xiao is planning. ”

Meng Heng's brows furrowed, as if he was in a difficult choice, and asked, "Does that mean that no agreement has been reached yet?"

"That's right. As you might expect, the meeting was not successful. The officials of the court and China have always refused to accept the title of king, and Xiao Feng has also made up his mind that he will not accept negotiations unless he is crowned king. The two can be described as deadlocked. As far as the current situation is concerned, there may be conflicts between the two anytime and anywhere, so I have to prepare in advance. Li Tingzhi was stunned for a moment, then showed a bitter face, and then reminded Meng Heng.

In any case, he did not want the alliance between the Red Phoenix Army and the Song Dynasty to be shattered.

Meng Heng's lips opened slightly, expelled the turbid qi from his lungs, and said: "Get ready? How easy is this to say? Originally, our army's strength is insufficient, and it is already our best to resist Zhang Rou's attack, if the Chifeng army descends from the Yangtze River at this time, how can we hold Xiangyang?" Fu You clenched his five fingers and shouted in a low voice: "At that time, if Xiangyang is lost, it is convenient to use the naval army to drive straight in and directly attack the place where I am in the heart." This kind of scene must not be allowed to appear. ”

"That's why the general pushed for an alliance with the Red Phoenix Army?" Li Tingzhi looked at Meng Hui with some surprise.

Meng Heng nodded and replied, "That's right." The so-called prince is just a mere name, so why should he take it to heart? And if our dynasty can conclude an alliance with the Song dynasty, the border will be stable, and the pressure on us to resist Mongolia will be much less. ”

"In this way, does the general support Xiao Feng to become the king?" Li Tingzhi asked again.

Meng Heng nodded lightly: "That's right." And that Xiao Feng also said that he was willing to give up things like Yulu, just to be able to protect the people under his rule in the name of the prince. I didn't do anything, I got a state out of thin air, how could I not support such a thing?"

"But those court officials said that Xiao Feng was not qualified to be crowned king at all according to legal principles?" Li Tingzhi thought of what the ministers of the court and the central government did at the beginning, and he actually made Xiao Feng angry and left.

These guys, is it possible that they don't know what the situation of the Song Dynasty is now?

Meng Hui chuckled lightly and said with disdain: "In the whole world, if this woman can't be crowned king, then no one in this world can be crowned king." As for those civil and military officials, you don't have to pay attention to them. These guys are just mediocre people, so there's no need to worry. It's just that do you know, what exactly is Xiao Feng's plan at the moment?"

For the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China, Meng Hui has dealt with a lot, so he naturally knows that these civil and military officials seem to be noisy, but among them is just a strong inward, only need to use a little real force, and those powerful ministers such as Qin Hui and Shi Miyuan in the past can tilt the power of the government and the opposition, and overwhelm everyone.

"Xiao Feng, I talked to her before I left. At present, this person is not entangled in the affairs of the Chifeng Army, but he seems to be confronting the Zhu Mansion. The reason for this seems to be because of a maid she came with her. Li Tingzhi thought about it for a while, and then said Zhu Yuzhen's matter and Meng Heng's 1510 clearly.

"So that's it?"

Meng Hui couldn't help laughing and complained: "I didn't expect this person to have such courage and dare to confront the Zhu Mansion? Could it be that she doesn't know what the identity of this person is? The descendants of the Zhu family are definitely not something that ordinary people can offend." ”

After all, Zhu Xi is also a generation of masters, and there have always been many protégés and former officials under his command.

And these protégés and former officials are entrenched in the imperial court, which can be said to occupy every corner, even Zhao Yun, the official of the Song Dynasty today, does not dare to make any moves, so as not to be scolded by these Confucian scholars who claim to be the successors of science.

Li Tingzhi shook his head and smiled helplessly: "I don't know." However, before I left, it is said that the Zhu Mansion released a rumor, saying that if Xiao Feng dared to leave Lin'an City, they would dare to break into the Fengwu Mansion and arrest the escaped abandoned girl. If there were them, presumably Xiao Feng would not leave Lin'an City in a short period of time. ”

"Oh, I thought that if the official family couldn't help it, they might make a move, but I didn't expect this Zhu Mansion to explode first. But that's fine, at least let those guys understand why the Red Phoenix Army has such strength, and why we need to ally with them!" Meng Hui naturally felt extremely happy after hearing this.

Since Xiao Feng had never left, there was still hope for the conclusion of the covenant, so they could continue to work hard in order to survive this desperate situation.

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

Lin'an City, Fengwu Mansion.

Standing on the school ground, Xiao Feng said to Zhu Yuzhen in front of him: "You have a good foundation, and you have already achieved the realm of true yuan, but because you have lived in the boudoir for a long time, you have not been destroyed by fire and water, and yin and yang have been subverted, so you can't carry the true yuan, so that it can be transformed into a sword, and then kill the enemy." ”

Now, this Lin'an City is treacherous, and the Zhu Mansion is also eyeing Zhu Yuzhen.

Xiao Feng felt that he was the only one here, and if he was trapped by others, the two of them would be in difficulty, so he thought about it and instructed Zhu Yuzhen so that he could further his strength.

Of course, this is also fortunate that Zhu Yuzhen himself has a good foundation, and he began to practice family martial arts since he was a child.

"I see, my lord!"

Zhu Yuzhen nodded hurriedly, his hands were a little nervous, and he held the long sword in his hand.

Xiao Feng complained again: "But you should also know. We women, in terms of strength and endurance, are far inferior to men, but only in speed and dexterity are higher than men. Therefore, if you want to be able to confront men, you need to borrow more from your surroundings and not have to entangle with each other more, you know?"

Zhu Yuzhen knew that this was a great opportunity, and nodded sharply to show that he understood.

"Good. Now that you have understood, then I will first use the Xuanling Fire Array to help you intensify the true element, only in this way can you break through the shackles and then enter the next round. Do you know?" Xiao Feng's face was solemn, and he immediately drank in a deep voice, and the red flames around him appeared, turning into dozens of firebirds in an instant, the firebirds were only the size of a palm, but they were extraordinary, and under the rotation of his eyes, he even revealed a bit of aura.

"Go!"

With a scold, the firebird immediately burst out and pounced directly on Zhu Yuzhen.

Zhu Yu was really frightened, and immediately rose into the air, avoiding the collision of the fire phoenix, but at this moment, another bird waved its wings and fell straight from the sky, just past its chest.

As soon as he was pierced by this firebird, Zhu Yuzhen immediately felt that his internal organs were like being burned, and he couldn't help screaming in severe pain, vomiting a few drops of blood from his mouth, and his movements were also congealed.

Standing in the distance, Xiao Feng couldn't help but frown, and opened his mouth to scold: "Remember, this firebird is not an ordinary thing, and its speed and sensitivity will far surpass that of a swallow." There are thirty-six of them, and you'll need to hold them up for an hour before you disarm the circle. Did you get it?"

"I, I know. ”

Zhu Yuzhen barely opened his mouth, his eyes flashing constantly, trying to catch those firebird tricks.

But there were so many firebirds that she couldn't catch them, let alone predict their tricks, so she was beaten several times.

I don't know what means Xiao Feng is hiding in this firebird, these firebirds obviously look as if they have life, but they don't seem to have any body, not only can they soar in the air, but even through stones, trees and even land, and if they bombard people's bodies, it is enough to make the attacker feel unbearable pain in the internal organs of the abdomen, and they can't raise the strength to dodge at all.

"Don't panic, concentrate carefully, don't rely on your eyes alone. Use your ears, nose and touch to 'see' everything around you. Xiao Feng, who was in the distance, looked anxious, and also opened his mouth to complain.

Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Zhu Yuzhen immediately closed his eyes, as if he wanted to judge the enemy by his ears and nose.

But this time, it was even more difficult for her to dodge the attack of the firebird, and she didn't even notice the gravel under her feet, and with an "oops" sound, the whole person fell to the ground, rubbed her hands over the rough stone, and scraped off a piece of the boss's flesh.

"Oops. Sister Zhu was injured. ”

Standing next to him, Yang Feng also saw this scene and immediately wanted to walk into it and heal it.

But as soon as Xiao Feng stretched out his hand, he pulled Yang Feng back to the placket, looking at her puzzled look, Xiao Feng shook his head and said, "It's just a little injury, it's not a big deal." Go on!"

"But my lord, looking at my sister's appearance, she is very painful. Yang Feng also heard Zhu Yuzhen's moaning, and his heart felt even more uneasy.

"What's such a little injury?

With a scold, the firebird immediately burst out and pounced directly on Zhu Yuzhen.

Zhu Yu was really frightened, and immediately rose into the air, avoiding the collision of the fire phoenix, but at this moment, another bird waved its wings and fell straight from the sky, just past its chest.

As soon as he was pierced by this firebird, Zhu Yuzhen immediately felt that his internal organs were like being burned, and he couldn't help screaming in severe pain, vomiting a few drops of blood from his mouth, and his movements were also congealed.
