Three days after Nanping was destroyed, the news came, Zhang Wenbiao was cornered, his family set himself on fire, Hengzhou City fell, the Tang army rushed into the city like a wolf and a tiger, killed all the rebels, followed by 50,000 horses and suddenly counterattacked, and on the occasion of the celebration, Yang Shifan led 20,000 horses were all disarmed and seized, leaving 10,000 horses to guard Hengzhou City, and 40,000 people returned to Langzhou under the leadership of Yang Shui.
Zhou Baoquan was shocked when he heard the news and hurriedly gathered troops to resist. It's a pity that the Tang army marched quickly, and before they could react, they opened the gate of Langzhou City with the cooperation of the special combat team personnel, and the Wuping army resisted to the death, but was defeated by the Tang army, and was annihilated one after another, Zhou Baoquan was captured alive by Yang Shui and sent back to Jinling.
Wuping was spread all over the country, and the Southern Tang Dynasty went to the next country. When the news was transmitted back to Jinling, Li Yu immediately summoned the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs and Li Congshan, the king of Zheng, and ordered to carry out the ritual of worshiping ancestors and worshipping the sky, thanking the ancestors and God for their blessings.
Dozens of officials sent by the Southern Tang Dynasty were in place to take over, and the original officials of Nanping and Wuping were all transferred to serve in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and all of them were promoted to one level.
Hubei and Hunan were pacified one after another, and all the original surrendered soldiers were transferred back to Jinling, and elite troops were dispatched to defend them, exempting Nanping and Wuping from taxes for three years. All the officers and men participating in the war were given 10 acres of land, a total of 800,000 acres of land were distributed to private individuals, and the families of the soldiers who died in the war were each given a pension of 500 taels of silver, and the officers were rewarded according to their ranks.
All the dispositions were stopped, and Sun Zhen, the commander of the expeditionary force, and Yang Shu, the deputy marshal, retreated and returned one after another. Such a huge military operation was naturally impossible to conceal, and the Jiangbei Northern Army received news one after another, knowing that the two countries had been wiped out by the Southern Tang Dynasty, and immediately reported to Tokyo.
In the past ten days, Xiao Han and Murong Qiuyu stayed in the rented room and watched quietly, and all the news was transmitted by their own Wudang disciples. When he learned that the Demon Sect was guarding the palace, he knew that Sun Zhen would not stop them from taking people away, and it would be a trouble in the future, and he also gave Zhao Kuangyin an excuse to send troops to Jiangnan.
Following Tang Wenxing's 24-4 faction to attack and strangle more than 1,000 people from the Demon Sect, Xiao Han was very happy for him. Hearing that the man in yellow rescued the palace master of the Four Palaces, he and Murong Qiuyu guessed for a long time, but they still couldn't figure out who that person was.
Seeing that the situation has been decided, calm has also been restored in Jiangling City, the Demon Sect has fled to Xishu, Xiao Han is proud, and takes Murong Qiuyu out of the city, and his own Wudang disciples have found horses, and the two of them talk and laugh and ride horses down the east of the river. Now it has become the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the officials sent have been carefully trained by the imperial court, everyone knows that they have a great responsibility, and there are hidden dragons and war tigers secretly supervised, and they are all dedicated to doing things, which is very popular with the people, and it is several times better than when the two countries ruled before.
The two walked slowly, seeing the bleak autumn, the leaves on both sides of the avenue fell one after another, although it was Jiangnan, they also felt a slight chill. Xiao Han suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned his horse head with Murong Qiuyu and rushed to the riverside, and took a merchant ship back to Jinling.
After meeting King Zheng, it goes without saying that he had a polite entertainment. Jinling City held a grand celebration ceremony, Sun Zhen and Yang Shu were promoted two levels in a row, awarded the title of earl, and their generals were rewarded.
After King Zheng gave Li Yu a gift, he rewarded the Wudang faction with 30,000 taels of silver and 3,000 horses of brocade and silk, and his own disciples of Qinglongtang escorted them back to Wudang.
The two of them heard that the three sects had returned to their respective factions, and Tang Wenxing led the factions to track the westward advance, and they breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, knowing that the Demon Sect would converge for a while, and the rivers and lakes would have a period of peace, which was indeed a good thing for Xiao Han, who fought and killed every day.
With the help of King Zheng, the Qianlong personnel of Jinling City detected everywhere, and finally found the traces of Jun Mowen in an inn on the Yangtze River in the north of Jinling City.
Xiao Han immediately rushed over with Murong Qiuyu, and sure enough, he found that Jun Mowen and Shen Zi were drinking together, and the two of them stepped forward to meet the second elder, but they didn't see Gu Zhonghe and Sunan Xing, and they couldn't help but be disappointed.
Murong Qiuyu's eyes were red, and he stayed in front of Shen Zidu and refused to leave. Shen Zidu drank too much, and had a verbal fight with Jun Mowen, and the two immediately fought without saying a word, almost demolishing the inn, scaring the guests to flee in all directions.
Where did Xiao Han dare to persuade, seeing that the two were fighting fiercely, he was afraid that Jun Mowen would hurt Murong Qiuyu in a hurry, so he hurriedly pulled her out.
The two of them heard the banging in the inn, followed by two figures, one white and one green, rushing out of the inn, fighting all the way to the west, disappearing into the vast reeds.
Xiao Han smiled bitterly: "Sister, let's go back like this." Murong Qiuyu said helplessly: "This look is really not good, you don't even dare to see your sister now, if you go back like this, won't you let the Wudang disciples laugh off their big teeth?"
Xiao Han shook his head and said, "These two old monsters don't do business, and they disappeared before I asked Senior Sister Su where she was, how can this be good?"
Murong Qiuyu frowned and said, "It's better to ask King Zheng to help search for Senior Sister Su's news, I don't want to go back with freckles on my face." ”
The two were talking, and they heard a woman's voice behind a willow tree by the river say coldly: "The appearance is just a skin, what's wrong with this appearance?" followed by a bewitching masked woman dressed in yellow turned out from behind the tree, followed by a young masked man.
Xiao Han was overjoyed and hurriedly rushed over to see. After the four of them greeted each other, Sunan Xing glanced at Xiao Han coldly, and said with a complicated gaze: "Master Xiao has a good means, when did he collude with the government and do the act of destroying the country?"
The rivers and lakes are like this, even if he plans everything, he can't do it without leaking a single rumor. The rumors were actually extremely unfavorable to Xiao Han, after all, the Wudang faction was built in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and if Zhao Song learned that he was involved in this matter, he didn't know how to deal with him.
Hearing Su Nanxing say this, Xiao Han of course tried his best to deny it. Sunan Xing ignored him anymore, turned around and walked back to the inn, the inn had been disabled by two old monsters, and the shopkeeper almost cried to death. Gu Zhonghe was full of apologies, took out the silver to compensate for the loss, Xiao Han rewarded the store with a tael of silver, and the store broke into tears and laughed and opened a room for the four of them.
Sunan Xing took Murong Qiuyu in first, and after a while, Murong Qiuyu walked out and returned to her original appearance, Xiao Han looked at her tranquil and quiet face, and was so excited that he almost jumped up and kissed her. Sunan Xing said coldly: "If you look like this again, I won't care." ”
Xiao Han said with a hippie smile: "This is not good, if you always look like this, your little junior sister doesn't know the head of this family, and she has to cry to death?"
Sunan Xing's eyes were cold, and she pointed to a chair in the room and said, "Sit down and close your eyes." Xiao Han didn't dare to say much, obediently went over and sat down, and after some operation, Sunan Xing took back the human skin mask and asked Xiao Han to clean his face with water and restore his original appearance.
Xiao Han took the bronze mirror handed over by Murong Qiuyu and looked at it non-stop, and Sunan Xing said angrily: "What is there to see with a broken face? You helped me, I helped you, let's clear up from now on, and don't see each other again." ”
Xiao Handeng jumped up and said, "That's not good, you are Miss Li's senior sister, you are my senior sister, and I didn't offend you, why can't we meet?"
Murong Qiuyu's face changed slightly, and he turned his face slightly. Gu Zhonghe said softly: "Senior sister still has something to do, let's leave it at that." ”
Xiao Han shook his head and said: "This is not good, I also have something to inform the two of you, the Wudang faction is preparing to hold an inauguration ceremony, and invite heroes from all over the world to come to watch the ceremony, how can there be two missing?"
Su Nanxing said with a cold gaze: "I won't go." Gu Zhonghe followed: "Don't blame Master Xiao, I'm afraid I won't be able to go." ”
Xiao Han frowned and said, "If you don't come, you will miss a good show, don't regret it then." Gu Zhonghe smiled and said, "What kind of show? Could it be that you want to marry my little junior sister?"
Xiao Han's heart moved, and he said: "This suggestion is good, I really haven't considered it, let's take a look at it then, it's better to take the opportunity to do it together." ”
Su Nanxing snorted: "There is no right word, isn't it just a gang ceremony? Since there are three sects and thirty-six factions to go to the scene, what will be the good show?" Then his face changed slightly: "You want to attack the three sects?" Gu Zhonghe smiled awkwardly: "Senior sister told jokes, don't you care." ”
Xiao Han said happily: "You are all disciples of the Tianshan Sect, do you know about Senior Uncle Li and Senior Uncle Lan?" The two looked at each other, and their faces suddenly sank. Although the matter of the second elder is an open secret in the Tianshan faction, he doesn't want others to mention it in a joking tone, not to mention that the two of them are both senior masters of the Tianshan faction.
Sunan Xing stared at him coldly and said, "Do you dare to mention them one more word, believe it or not, I'll kill you now?" followed by a light wave of his right hand, and immediately pulled out his sword and pointed at Xiao Han.
Gu Zhonghe hurriedly stopped in front of her and persuaded: "Brother Xiao has always been enthusiastic, although this matter is a little rude, but there is no malice, how can you be angry because of this?"
Xiao Hanzhi was calm, his face was full of indifference, he was reluctant to glance at Sunan Xing, and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "I'm not joking, you really don't know this matter carefully." Uncle Li has been fighting against Uncle Lan because of his ashes, and he has been in trouble all his life, and the head of this family has already planned to stop and help them accomplish good things at the Wudang Sect's opening ceremony, don't you want to see it?"
The two looked at each other silently, and Su Nanxing said with cold eyes: "How can Uncle Li and Uncle Lan be at your mercy, do you really think that you are a character?" Gu Zhonghe heard that her tone was not good, and immediately said: "When will the Wudang Sect ceremony be held?
Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to Murong Qiuyu and said, "Sister, when did you say that our Wudang Sect ceremony will be held?" Murong Qiuyu knew that he was talking nonsense just now, and frowned: "November 20 is the auspicious day of the zodiac, it should be on that day." ”
Xiao Han clapped his hands and said, "Exactly, that day, I was waiting for you on the mountain with Miss Li and my sister-in-law." Sunan Xing snorted and said, "You wait." Turning around and leaving, Tanaka Crane hurriedly followed. Xiao Han watched her go away blankly, turned his head and sighed: "The good cabbage is arched by the pig." ”
Murong Qiuyu didn't know the meaning of his words, so he just frowned and said nothing. Xiao Han glanced at her, and suddenly said with a smile: "They must be looking for Shen Junming of the Emei faction, women are really strange, don't rush up, is it really beauty from distance?"
Murong Qiuyu said softly: "You keep saying those inexplicable words, I don't understand. Xiao Han apologized: "I was wrong, I will definitely say something you can understand in the future." Then look at Sunan Xing, which has disappeared into the vast reeds, and I don't know where it went.
Murong Qiuyu suddenly said, "Do you particularly like a woman like Senior Sister Su?" Xiao Han subconsciously said, "That's natural." Seeing that Murong Qiuyu's complexion changed slightly, he immediately defended: "Everyone likes beautiful women, and liking is not equal to love, let alone possession. A beauty like Senior Sister Su can only be watched from a distance and cannot be played with, I am just a little Wudang head, how dare I have other thoughts?"
Murong Qiuyu's beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she was just about to speak with a smile on her face, when she heard a cold voice in the distance say, "Duplicity, so shameless." ”
