Comprehensive martial arts: Qixia town storytellers, the beginning of the tie to Qiao Feng

Chapter 280 Double Dragon Enters Chang'an!
After observing the situation in Yangzhou City, Ruan Ruan's expression turned extremely ugly.

These days of heavy rain have indeed created good conditions for them to store water.

But it also created good conditions for Xu Jingye to retreat.

She knew without guessing that the scouts must have not carefully observed the situation in Yangzhou City because of the continuous heavy rain.

Otherwise, it is impossible for 100,000 people to withdraw from Yangzhou City in just a few days without any clues!
Thinking of this, Ruan Ruan wished to kill all those dereliction of duty scouts!
Qiu Shenji arrived behind Ruan Ruan. He saw Yangzhou City, which was empty, and his expression was extremely ugly. He asked, "What should we do now?"

"Don't break the embankment, let the water out slowly!"

Ruan Ruan gritted her teeth and ordered!

It doesn't make any sense to burst an embankment and flood an empty city now, and the flood will stop their pursuit.

These days of heavy rain have made the ground near Yangzhou City muddy.

If there is another flood, I am afraid that this place will become a swamp country, at least it will take ten and a half days for the flood to recede.

After the ground is dry and ready to march, it will be almost a month later.

When the time comes to chase Xu Jingye, I'm afraid he won't even be able to see him!
Qiu Shenji had no choice but to accept his orders and leave.

Ruan Ruan turned and returned to the barracks.

When she returned to the barracks, Yu Rui was still in the tent.

She looked at Yu Rui coldly, and said in a deep voice, "You broke the rules!"

Yu Rui looked at Ruan Ruan and said, "Rules are dead, but people are alive."

Ruan Ruan said coldly: "Even if Xu Jingye started to retreat in advance, but he brought hundreds of thousands of people, he couldn't go fast at all!"

"I'll go after him when the rain stops tomorrow morning. I'm sure I can catch up to him!"

"Even if he escapes to Jiangnan, I will chase after him!"

Yu Rui heard Ruan Ruan's words and said, "So, you don't plan to break the embankment."

Ruan Ruan ignored Yu Rui, she turned her head and said to the guards: "Go and arrest the scouts who have been performing missions near Yangzhou City these days, and behead them for public display!"

"Wait a minute." Yu Rui stopped Ruan Ruan, "They are innocent."

Ruan Ruan laughed back angrily, and said, "Innocent? Xu Jingye spent so many days evacuating Yangzhou City, they didn't know anything about it, so he neglected his duties, how could he be innocent?"

Speaking of this, Ruan Ruan seemed to have thought of something.

She suddenly took a deep look at Yu Rui and asked, "Could it be that Xu Jingye's army didn't retreat at all, and you are just deceiving us?"

Yu Rui didn't expect Ruan Ruan to be so smart and to react so quickly.

Now that Ruan Ruan has noticed the facts, she no longer hides it and said, "This is indeed our strategy."

At this time, when Yu Rui admitted that all of this was a trick, Ruan Ruan wanted to understand everything.

The reason why the scouts didn't find out that Xu Jingye's army and the people of Yangzhou had evacuated was not because of dereliction of duty, but because there was no such thing at all!

All of this is Yu Rui's scheme.

Yu Rui deliberately asked Xu Jingye to stand the grass man on the city wall, first creating the first illusion for her.

The whole city was ordered to turn off the lights, and the heavy rain affected the sight line, creating the illusion of an empty city.

In fact, as long as she was more cautious and went into the city to investigate, she would naturally find flaws.

But because of the previous illusions and Yu Rui's lies.

In her heart, she was convinced that Yangzhou was an empty city.

In this case, it is very unlikely that she will go to the city to investigate again.

This was a huge gamble between Yu Rui and Xu Jingye, and in the end they won the bet.

Thinking of this, Ruan Ruan couldn't help feeling extremely angry.

But this anger was not aimed at Yu Rui, but at herself.

She was conceited and clever, but she never expected to be tricked by such a simple trick!

It's so embarrassing!
"I can still order the flooding of Yangzhou City!"

Ruan Ruan looked at Yu Rui angrily.

Yu Rui smiled slightly and said, "Since you have already lost, naturally you won't do such a thing again."

Ruan Ruan gritted her teeth and said, "I'm a member of the Demon Sect, so what if I lose to you now? As long as the final victory belongs to me, that's enough."

Yu Rui replied, "Then why don't you give the order?"

Ruan Ruan was in a hurry.

Of course she had time to order the embankment to burst and flood Yangzhou city.

But she didn't want to and didn't bother to do it.

She will use other methods to attack Yangzhou City again, this is her pride!
Yu Rui looked at Ruan Ruan's unconvinced look, and said: "Although you are very smart and resourceful, and you speak cruelly, you are still a very principled person."

"At least in some respects, you are principled."

Ruan Ruan snorted coldly, but didn't buy it.

Yu Rui cupped his hands towards Ruan Ruan and said, "On behalf of the people of Yangzhou City, I would like to thank Miss Ruan Ruan for not killing her."

Ruan Ruan waved her hands a little irritably and said, "Hurry up, I'll be annoyed when I see you!"

Yu Rui didn't stay any longer, and said with a smile: "The poor Taoist will leave now."

Ruan Ruan looked at Yu Rui's leaving figure, feeling extremely depressed.

It's okay for her to be looked down upon by Lu Yan.

Now that she lost to Yu Rui again, she was really upset!

"Wait until I use another method to take down Yangzhou City, let's see what you do!"

After Yu Rui left the barracks of Qiu Shenji's army, he went straight to Yangzhou City.

She flew into Yangzhou City and came to the barracks, and said loudly: "Xu Shuai, Pindao is back."

As Yu Rui's voice fell, immediately a middle-aged man in armor came out of the darkness.

"Is it done?"

"Fortunately not humiliated."

Hearing Yu Rui's answer, Xu Jingye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When he heard that Ruan Ruan was going to flood Yangzhou City, he was really shocked.

When Yu Rui offered him this plan, he was always in fear.

Now that he heard that the plan was successful, he was relieved.

"Thank you Fairy Yu!"

Xu Jingye bowed deeply towards Yu Rui.

Yu Rui shook his head and said, "Xu Shuai doesn't need to thank me, the poor are just thinking about the innocent people in Yangzhou."

Xu Jingye straightened up and said, "This thank you, Commander-in-Chief, is to thank Fairy Yu on behalf of the innocent people in Yangzhou."

"It is not a pity for us people to die, but if innocent people are implicated because of us, it is really our sin!"

Yu Rui said in a subtle tone: "Actually, I should thank that Ruan Ruan for this matter."

After Yu Rui told Xu Jingye about the matter, Xu Jingye didn't expect that Ruan Ruan would see through Yu Rui's scheme at a critical moment.

Fortunately, Ruan Ruan is not really an unscrupulous person.

Otherwise, they would still be unable to escape the flooding tonight.

Yu Rui looked at Xu Jingye and said, "Xu Shuai, please put the people of Yangzhou City first, and don't let the people be implicated again."

Xu Jingye nodded and said: "This commander will definitely find a way to settle down the people of Yangzhou City, please rest assured Fairy Yu!"

Yu Rui nodded lightly and said: "If you are so poor, I will leave first."

……

Chang'an City.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling left the caravan, one person and two horses, traveling day and night, and finally arrived at Chang'an City from Yumen Pass.

Looking at the big banner with the word "Tang" erected on the top of Chang'an City, both of them felt extraordinarily cordial.

On the way to Chang'an City, the two inquired about the news again.

They already knew that Li Fan, the king of Shu, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in Chang'an City, and restored the Tang Dynasty.

"Let's go, advance to the city."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling led their horses towards the west gate of Chang'an City.

Now Chang'an City is surrounded by martial law, but the city gates are still open in normal times.

It's just that if you want to enter the city, you need to be closely interrogated. Once you find any problems, you will be taken to the prison for interrogation immediately.

In the past few days, a lot of secret works from the capital of God have been discovered.

Although Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were dressed as outsiders, they were also subjected to extremely strict interrogation when they entered Chang'an City.

Fortunately, neither of them had any problems, and they were able to enter Chang'an City after obtaining the pass.

Although it is said that Chang'an City has just changed hands, because it used to be the western capital of the Tang Dynasty, the people here have a high sense of identity with the Tang Dynasty re-established by Li Fan.

In addition, most of the nobles in the city are from Guanlong, and they are all closely related to the Li family, so there is not much war atmosphere in the city.

Kou Zhong looked at the bustling scene in the city, and said to Xu Ziling: "It seems that this Li Fan has managed Chang'an City pretty well."

Xu Ziling nodded and said, "I have nothing to do with Minqiu, and he is loved by the people. He can be regarded as a virtuous lord."

Kou Zhong glanced at Xu Ziling and said, "It is said that Dongfang Lan, the new generation of saintess of Cihang Jingzhai, is by Li Fan's side."

Hearing Kou Zhong mentioning Cihang Jingzhai, Xu Ziling couldn't help but think of the woman who once haunted him.

Kou Zhong looked at the subtle expression change on Xu Ziling's face, and said with a smile: "The previous generation of saintesses from the Yinkui Sect and the previous generation of saintesses from Cihang Jingzhai all have a relationship with you, and I don't know if this generation will. ..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Xu Ziling glanced at Kou Zhong, a little helpless.

At his age, it is enough to be a grandfather to the father of this generation of Yinkui sect saintesses and Cihang Jingzhai saintesses.

Kou Zhong smiled and said, "I mean I want you to be their master, where did you go?"

Xu Ziling shook his head, too lazy to talk to Kou Zhong.

The two stopped and walked on the street, and after reviewing the prosperity of Chang'an, they walked towards Miyagi.

With the strength of the two of them, they can enter Chang'an City without anyone noticing.

In fact they did.

Miyagi was heavily guarded, but no one found any trace of the two of them.

It wasn't until they entered the depths of the palace that someone appeared in front of them and stopped them.

"Who are you?"

Dongfang Lan looked at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling who suddenly appeared in the important area of ​​Miyagi, dressed in sheepskin fur and dressed as outsiders, with very vigilant expressions on their faces.

Kou Zhong looked at Dongfang Lan who was wearing a veil, and asked curiously: "Could it be that you are the saint of Cihang Jingzhai's generation, that Dongfang Lan?"

When Dongfang Lan heard Kou Zhong say his name, he frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Kou Zhong gave Xu Ziling a push, and said, "You are good at dealing with Cihang Jingzhai, so come here."

Xu Ziling was pushed in front of Dongfang Lan by Kou Zhong.

Dongfang Lan subconsciously drew out his long sword and tapped it on Xu Ziling's chest, shouting, "Don't go any further!"

"East, what happened?"

At this moment, Song Yuming hurried over from not far away.

When he saw Dongfang Lan drawing his sword, he subconsciously pulled out the long knife on his back and pointed it at Xu Ziling.

Kou Zhong saw Song Yuming's gesture of drawing his sword, and asked with great interest, "Are you from the Song family?"

Song Yuming looked at Kou Zhong with a frown and asked, "Who are you?"

Kou Zhong grinned and said, "If I'm not wrong, you should call me Uncle."

Uncle?

Hearing Kou Zhong's words, Song Yuming froze for a moment.

Immediately, he seemed to have thought of something, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"You...you...you are the second uncle?"

Kou Zhong nodded with a smile and said: "Stinky boy, since you know that I am your second uncle, why don't you kneel down and kowtow quickly?"

Song Yuming looked at Kou Zhong and said, "How do I know you're not lying to me!"

Kou Zhong laughed, and suddenly used his hand as a knife, and swung the knife towards the sky.

This sword flew like a dragon flying nine days, stirring up the wind and clouds, and the momentum was extremely huge.

Almost all the people in Chang'an City witnessed this vision of heaven and earth with their own eyes!

Song Yuming recognized at a glance that this was exactly their Song family's saber technique.

The heavenly sword technique inherited from his grandfather!
Even he, the direct descendant of the Song family, has not yet grasped the essence of this saber technique.

But Kou Zhong showed the essence of this saber to the fullest with a wave of his hand!

"I don't have anything else on me. The sword technique your grandfather taught me should prove something."

Kou Zhong looked at Song Yuming with a bright smile on his dark face.

Song Yuming had no more questions at this time, and immediately knelt down on the ground and said loudly, "Yuming pays homage to Second Uncle!"

Dongfang Lan looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment.

It is well known that Song Yuming's second aunt married Kou Zhong, one of the Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty.

If Kou Zhong's identity is true, then isn't she pointing her sword at Xu Ziling, one of the twin dragons? !
Thinking of this, Dongfang Lan took a step back, retracted the long sword into its sheath, and asked, "Are you Xu Ziling?"

Xu Ziling nodded slightly, and said, "Yes, I am Xu Ziling."

Hearing Xu Ziling's acknowledgment of his identity, Dongfang Lan's gaze at Xu Ziling inevitably became a little subtle.

She had heard a lot about Xu Ziling when she was a child.

I also know that there is a past between Xu Ziling and her master.

It's just that in these years, she has never heard Xu Ziling mentioned by her master.

Xu Ziling looked at Dongfang Lan, intending to inquire about Shi Feixuan, but he didn't say anything when the words came to his lips.

Since I had already decided to forget each other in the rivers and lakes at the beginning, why bother to ask more questions now, which would only increase my troubles.

At this moment, several figures approached from not far away, and the leader was Li Fan.

They were all attracted by the astonishing saber technique before.

"Dongfang, Yuming, who are they?"

Li Fan looked at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, and asked Song Yuming and Dongfang Lan curiously.

Although I don't know what happened to the knife just now, but since the two sides did not fight, they must not be enemies.

Song Yuming said to Li Fan a little excitedly: "Your Majesty, this is Shuanglong of the Tang Dynasty, and my second uncle and young marshal. They are back!"

When Li Fan heard Song Yuming's words, he was stunned for a moment, but soon his face showed surprise.

The people around Li Fan were also surprised and delighted.

Datang Double Dragon!

Kou Zhong Xu Ziling!
Although they have been away from Datang for decades, their legends have been circulating in Datang.

They have always been eager to see Ssangyong with their own eyes.

Now that Ssangyong suddenly appeared in front of their eyes, they were really pleasantly surprised!

"It's actually Shuanglong, it's Grandpa Kou and Grandpa Xu!"

Li Fan's grandfather was Taizong.

And Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are Taizong's brothers, so there is nothing wrong with his calling grandpa.

Immediately, Li Fan took a step forward, saluted the two of them, and bowed deeply.

"Li Fan met Grandpa Kou and Grandpa Xu."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling turned their gazes to Li Fan, both looking up and down Li Fan with scrutiny.

Li Fan is young and handsome, with a dignified appearance and an extraordinary bearing.

Although it has only been a few days since he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he already has the majesty of a superior.

Even in the face of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling at this time, he showed respect while maintaining his dignity as the emperor, and his performance was remarkable.

The first impression for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling was pretty good.

Kou Zhong smiled and took a step forward, helped Li Fan up, and said, "You are the emperor now, how can we grassroots afford such a great gift."

Li Fan looked at Kou Zhong and said: "Our Li family has always followed the ancient precepts and ruled the world with filial piety. As the grandson of the two grandfathers, I will not be too big to pay respects to you two."

Kou Zhong laughed when he heard this, patted Li Fan on the shoulder and said, "What you said seems to make sense."

At this time Kou Zhong's attitude towards Li Fan was very casual, but Li Fan was extremely happy in his heart.

Kou Zhong treats him casually, which shows that Kou Zhong treats him as one of his own.

Although he has proclaimed himself emperor now, the gods are still in Wu Zhao's hands, and most of the country is also under Wu Zhao's control.

But if they can get the help of Ssangyong, Wu Zhao is nothing!
"Grandpas, let's go in and talk."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling naturally had no objection to Li Fan's invitation.

They have been away from the Central Plains for so many years, and the Central Plains has already changed. They also have a lot of things to ask everyone.

When everyone was talking, Li Fan just chatted with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling about what happened in Datang these years, and never mentioned that he wanted to ask Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to help deal with Wu Zhao.

When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling heard that Yangzhou City was under siege and there were hundreds of thousands of innocent people in the city, they both frowned.

Yangzhou City is their hometown, so it would be fine if they weren't there.

Now that they are back, they must not just sit back and watch something happen in Yangzhou City.

The two made a decision immediately, and set off for Yangzhou later to break the siege of Yangzhou.

Regarding Ssangyong's decision, Li Fanfei didn't have any opinion, and he was even very happy.

Originally, Xu Jingye and the coalition forces of the princes are now at an absolute disadvantage. If Ssangyong takes action, they will surely be able to turn the crisis into safety.

For their Datang, this is definitely a great thing!

As for dealing with Wu Zhao, just take your time.

　It is said that the IQ of the author determines the IQ of the character.

　　As far as Yangzhou City is concerned, that's all I think of, so please don't be disgusted.
