Holding his breath and concentrating, the group of figures gradually approached, and when he ran close, he saw that the uniforms of the same color sergeants were all in the style of the leader, and the blade was like a curved silver moon.

Finally, we began to realize that something was wrong, and the team just started to retreat.

"We are escorting the princess out of seclusion on the orders of the Emperor of Wei. Who dares to lead troops to stop us? Are you not afraid that I will inform His Majesty and punish you?!"

"Consecrate us? Let's see if the Lord of Hell gives you a chance to complain first!"

The speaker was young and angry, and after saying that, he drew his sword and fought with them.

Kong Sheng and others came well prepared, and a fight was inevitable. The military leaders had always trained quickly, so it was just a small test to deal with these people. It didn't take long before half of them fell to the ground dead.

Seeing that there was only the last one left, Ti Zhen just opened the car curtain and called a stop, "Save his life for a while!"

Nianying responded and pulled the whip from his waist to strangle the man's neck. He was about to groan and torture him, but was cut off by Ti Zhen's extremely calm tone.

"What did Xiao Li tell you?"

No one expected this name to appear so suddenly.

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then his eyes swayed from side to side in a guilty manner.

Seeing this, Ti Zhen glanced at him and said coldly: "You don't need to hesitate. If I didn't know clearly, I wouldn't ask you. Where does Xiao Li plan to send me after negotiating with the emperor? Do you want my life? over you."

Then he called Nianying, "Bring the torch."

The wood of the torch burned red due to the intensity of the fire. It crackled a few times in the dark night, and some sparks flew out. If it was burned on the meat, it would probably become pus and smear together. In today's hot weather, inflammation is the only way to die. .

Finally, the fierce fire touched the skin for a moment, and the man cried out tremblingly, "Xin...Xin Ling! It's Xin Ling"

"and then?"

"Never again!" He stretched his neck and said.

"Marquis Wu'an just sent us to meet the Heqin team, and there is no other explanation! Even if there are other instructions, Marquis Wu'an has a deep mind, how can he entrust everything to us little pawns? You know better!"

Nian Ying slapped him in the face in disbelief, "Who are you fooling! You are the same raccoon dog, what don't you know!"

The man kowtowed with a frightened bang bang bang, "I really didn't lie. I'm a young person who talks so softly, but I really don't know what's going on!"

"Nian Ying." Ti Zhen thought again and again: "Maybe... he really doesn't know."

After a long time, he waved to the central leader behind him and said, "Take care of these people and don't disturb the palace. As for the others, Kong Sheng..."

"The minister is here."

"Deploy some reliable people from your army. Some of them will keep their appointments and go to Xinling. The other part of them will go into battle lightly and come with me to Jinyang City."

Cao You frowned and said, "But girl, Jinyang City is too close to Beilu Pass. If soldiers from Xiang Kingdom come over, it will be dangerous!"

"I'm going just because of the danger!" Ti Zhen said firmly.

Unconsciously, his face was full of sadness, "The old emperor betrayed the country and the land to kill our uncle. Wen Yu... didn't know anything yet. He thought that spies from the north were harming the country and made some mistakes. This is using the people in the north as a blackmail. Force him to die!"

"If Jinyang City is lost and we want to send reinforcements..."

She couldn't bear to think about the worst-case scenario. She made this clear to guard against gentlemen and villains. It was a pity that Wen Yu had such a compassionate heart to save the world, but instead it became a place for Liu Yao and his son to take advantage of him.

The fine white teeth gently bit her red lips, and her starry eyes widened, "The situation is urgent and there is no need to delay. I don't know the details in the north, for fear that the letter will be intercepted, which will make things worse. If I don't go in person, I'm afraid I won't feel at ease." He immediately said He took off his bright red wedding dress and threw it to Cao You, "Just go to Xinling and send me a letter if you have any news."

Then he said to Nian Ying: "Follow me to Jinyang."

"As for Kong Sheng..." She pulled a token from her waist and gave it to him, "I know you are suppressing the capital and can't leave easily. This is the token from the Prince of Qin's Palace. Seeing it is like being there in person. I'll tell you to hurry up and go Linzi asked the governor of the territory to give reinforcements to King Qin, maybe it is not too late."

With such arrangements in place, everyone exchanged a few greetings and set off towards their respective territories.

July is a hot month, and the sun is shining brightly during the day, making it hard to keep your eyes open. When it starts to rain lightly at night, it feels cool instead.

Wen Yu, wearing a military uniform, wandered repeatedly in front of the sand table. He had previously reinforced Beilu Pass. Although he had lost troops and generals, he had generally maintained the status quo of Beilu Pass. There were countless enemies outside the wall. At least the crisis inside the pass had been resolved. When Xieyang's troops arrived, Upon arrival, the recovery of the three cities in Nuer Prefecture is imminent.

But when it comes to winning, I always feel cold in my heart. There was a rumbling wind, and it was always a mystery how the soldiers of Xiang State crossed Beilu Pass and entered the prefectures and counties in the abdomen.

What is even more suspicious is that all the state and county chiefs died for their country, without even a mouth that could speak. Although the prefectures and counties were small, it was impossible to resist the invasion of Xiang soldiers if they set up border defenses. It would be unbelievable to say that they were all dead.

"Yang Zuo," he squinted out the window intently, "order the corner flags and merchant flags to scatter left and right, and lay down for defense for six miles."

He stepped up to the city wall, took the clairvoyant eye and looked into the distance.

My heart was so disorganized that I didn't even know when He Bingzhu appeared. He Bingzhu sighed, "Before the storm comes, it's not a good thing to be too quiet. Your Highness doesn't get much rest lately."

Wen Yu nodded slowly, "You also feel something is wrong?"

He Bingzhu smiled faintly, looked at him and said, "Has Your Highness ever heard of the story of 'Zheng Beke Duan Yu Yan'?"

"In the pre-Qin Dynasty, in order to get rid of his younger brother, Zheng Zhuanggong deliberately allowed his uncle Duan and his mother Wu Jiang to rebel and work together to suppress him. Today, with the reputation of His Highness, it is not appropriate to go on an expedition to prevent his great achievements from shocking the Lord, but His Majesty insists on calling You come here, it is inevitable that you are playing hard to get."

"Look," he pointed to the rolling mountains in the distance, "the northern territory is dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Xiangguo has its own territory, it should be easy to enter, and the three places should not be lost in one day. ,unless……"

He took a breath quietly, clasped his fingers and said, "Unless the military defense plan is leaked."

The evening breeze seeped into his pores bit by bit, and the coldness almost took over all of Wen Yu's feelings.

He Bingzhu exhaled slowly, "Once such an important thing is leaked, the parents and officials of the northern territory will be killed together with their wives and children. Such a thing that harms others and does not benefit oneself, we know that the person who leaked may not be at the border, but... …”

Wen Yu had already guessed who he wanted to talk about. Although he had made some guesses, when others came out with the truth, he would still be shocked. Shocked that the Lord of the World had betrayed his people!

As a king of a country, he actually makes fun of the lives of the people in order to consolidate his position. This is really extremely ironic and ridiculous!

Wen Yu shook his head, "They are really crazy!"

He Bingzhu pondered and mourned, "Of course they are crazy... There are people in the center of power who are not crazy."

He raised his head and said, "To be honest, in my heart, I sincerely hope that one day you can be the leader of the world. Although your father is strong in governing the country, he is militant and not good at politics. Your uncle and the current emperor are too involved in politics. With internal fighting, the people cannot rest in peace. In fact, for the people of the world, what they need is not a vast territory or an emperor who is good at strategy, but a very ordinary and peaceful life."

"But unfortunately, there are indeed many things that the king does not know about himself, but these things are the only things that His Highness cares about."

As he spoke, he moistened his eyes and said with emotion, "It can be seen that Queen Huyan taught you very well about what it means to be a king."

This was the first time that Wen Yu heard his mother's name from He Bingzhu. That capable and powerful woman was also a pain that he could never let go of in his life.

The sky was as dark as thick ink, and the wind was blowing in the trees. I glanced at the moon uneasily, and suddenly heard the nervous and hasty voices from the soldiers below the city:

"There's someone in front-"

Everyone stood still when they heard the sound, only to hear the wind and sand hunting, and the occasional horse neighing. Wen Yu was slightly startled, his brows twisting and turning like distant mountains...
