Jinghong Tower

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ying's vision went dark and he fell from his horse.

He Ran looked around and bravely sniffed to make sure there was no poisonous smoke or anything like that. Damn, who can tell her that this man fell off his horse before she took action. Isn't it true that he wasn't poisoned? ?

She was really panicked at this moment. She hugged her thin self, pulled her neck and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, follow me and charge!"

Yang Ying, who fell to the ground, struggled to get up, but it was too late. The horse's hooves trampled over his body. When he melted into the earth, there were only two words in his mind - fierce!

Until daybreak, the war finally ended.

With more than 10,000 men fighting against an army of 80,000, He Ran had no chance of victory.

This battle was narrowly won because Li Ze died early.

As soon as Li Ze died, the morale of the army was in chaos. In addition, several generals were all drinking and their commands made mistakes.

He Ran also ordered Ran's army to be divided into several groups to outflank, giving the Jin army the illusion that the enemy's troops were powerful, and thus gained the upper hand.

From taking Li Ze's head to several generals, including He Ran himself, who all took the lives of enemy generals in a short period of time, these links are intertwined and indispensable.

He Ran didn't see Zhong Yi and his royal guards. She said to He Dali beside her: "Zhong Yi should be the first to do this."

He Dali had a grudge against Zhong Yi, who was the governor of the Imperial Guard, but he had to admit that if Zhong Yi had not won Li Ze's first victory, their subsequent battles would not have been so smooth.

"The general seconded the proposal!" He Dali said these four words from the bottom of his heart. If it were him, or if it were someone else present, no one except the headmaster might be able to do it as well as Zhong Yi. Complete this task.

Putting aside Zhong Yi's character, Zhong Yi did an absolutely beautiful job last night.

Looking around, there were corpses everywhere. He Ran personally led people to search for Wu Ju.

She had never seen Wu Ju. Fortunately, there were people from the Wu family army who had escaped from Lan County. However, she looked around and still couldn't see Wu Ju.

He Ran said: "If you want to see the person alive, if you want to see the corpse if you are dead, keep looking!"

Lan County was not He Ran's territory to begin with. The reason why she came here at the risk was for Wu Ju.

He Ran is utilitarian. If Wu Ju was not Wu Dongming's son, she would never act rashly.

Therefore, Wu Ju must be found, otherwise this battle will be in vain.

Because even if Lan County is captured, it must be returned to Wu Dongming. No matter whether Wu Dongming is reluctant to accept it or not, she will give it away.

"Keep looking!" He Ran ordered.

At this moment, a female soldier ran over panting: "Report to the master, we found four scholars in the Jin army's camp. They said they were traveling and were trapped here."

Scholar?

What stupid scholar comes to Lan County for a tour?

"Bring people here!"

Soon, five people were brought over. He Ran looked at a few of them. Although the clothes on four of them were dirty and torn, and the original color could no longer be seen, it could still be seen that they were dressed as scholars, and the other one was dressed as a scholar. Boy.

The leader was in his thirties, with a dusty face, but his facial features could still be seen to be delicate, and there was a bookish air between his brows. Although the clothes on his body were dirty and torn, his expression was calm.

The other three were younger, ranging from 12 to 16 or 17 years old. Although the three were a little nervous, they looked calm. This made He Ran have a good impression of them and wanted to chat with them. A few words.

"Name." A good impression is a good impression, and business-like inquiries are inevitable.

The leader stood up and saluted He Ran with clasped fists: "I'm Guo Shaoyan, all three of them are my students, Zhang Jinglin, Xu Weiyang and Xiao Yu."

He pointed to the boy again: "This is my servant Guo Changfu."

He Ran nodded and asked: "Why are you here?" Guo Shaoyan looked at He Ran with a clear look: "General, who is the head of Jinghong Tower?"

"Well, it's me." He Ran said.

Guo Shaoyan saluted solemnly and bowed to the ground, which surprised He Ran: "Mr. Guo, why is this?"

Guo Shaoyan said: "This gift is Shao Yan's way of thanking He for being the master of the family on behalf of his wife."

Before He Ran could ask, Guo Shaoyan gave another gift: "This gift is Shao Yan's own thanks to He Dajia."

An idea flashed in He Ran's mind, and she remembered something.

"Excuse me, who is Mr. Guo, Chief Minister Guo?"

Guo Shaoyan smiled: "It's my father."

He Ran smiled: "That's right."

At the beginning, Guo Shoufu's only son asked Jinghonglou to find his fiancée Shen Danru. Shen Danru was once a female official in the palace and disappeared after being released from the palace.

Jinghong Tower took over the case, and later found Shen Danru's relics in the palace, and found the bones under the back wall of Leng Palace.

Shen Danru was pregnant with the dragon seed of the former emperor. After the death of the former emperor, she was reported by the young emperor and later silenced by Min Lan. One corpse and two lives.

The last news that He Ran heard was that Mr. Guo escorted Shen Danru's body back to his hometown for burial.

He Ran said: "Master Guo, there is no need to say thank you, you have already paid me."

Guo Shaoyan said: "I still have to thank you. If it weren't for Jinghong Tower, Guo would have lost everything and still couldn't find the truth."

This is true, He Ran accepts it calmly.

He Ran asked about Guo Shoufu's current situation. Not long after King Qi came to Beijing, Guo Shoufu fell and injured himself at his home. Of course, He Ran didn't believe it. She always suspected that this was a life-saving strategy for Guo Shoufu, an old man.

Guo Shaoyan said: "The Holy Emperor was driving south, and my father was still injured. He didn't want to leave at first, but the emperor issued an imperial edict that my father must go with him. Shao Yan was still in his hometown at that time, and my father sent a letter asking me to stay in my hometown and not go anywhere. , but not long after, King Kaizhou sent me a message. In desperation, I had no choice but to take the three of them out.

But just after we passed Shunde, we were kidnapped by a group of refugees. As soon as we escaped, we were kidnapped by a group of strongmen and sold to Ren Yazi. "

He Ran

It turns out that Mr. Guo did not come out to travel, he was sold here by Ren Yazi.

An all-male lineup like Guo Shaoyan and the others would normally not be targeted by others, but once they are targeted, there are usually two places to go.

One is to sell it to the young man, and the other is to sell it to the mine.

This is the land of Jin. There is not much else but a lot of minerals.

He Ran asked: "Were you sold to Xinzhou by someone else?"

Mr. Guo's face was a little red, but due to his good upbringing, he did not appear embarrassed.

"Yes, we were sold to the mines, but the people in the mines didn't take a fancy to us. They originally wanted to kill us, but then they let a sergeant take us away for some reason. We have been here for the past few days. Working in the army.”

There are civilians in the army. Some armies will give them some money, and some armies will directly capture people to work.

He Ran looked at Mr. Guo and the others up and down: "With your stature, you must have suffered a lot these days." (End of Chapter)
