Chapter 74 The Fall of Taixing
Chapter 74 The Fall of Taixing
The personal guard thanked Chen Nian and hurriedly took people out of the camp.The people searched along the river for a long time, and finally found Zheng Lun who was drunk and passed out in the grass.He only heard about this from Wen Daya on the second day of Chennian, he hesitated and said: "When I saw him before, he was still conscious, how could he be so drunk?"
Wen Daya smiled and said: "One can tell that the master has never been drunk before, the strength of the alcohol will come and go, sometimes people are fine after drinking, and when the strength of the alcohol turns up, it will not work. If you don’t believe me, go ask General Zheng now, I guess he doesn’t even remember seeing you last night.”
He didn't mean to say this, but Chen Nian listened to it intentionally, the embarrassing thing happened last night, she didn't even have time to hide from Zheng Lun, how could she ask him if he still remembered what happened last night.Chen Nian smiled, but did not speak, but Wen Daya misunderstood what she meant, he thought she didn't believe it, so he pointed to the sparrow next to him and said: "If you don't believe me, ask her, but that's it."
Ling Que is quite the opposite of Chen Nian, although she is also a young girl, she is very good at drinking.When she saw Wen Daya pointing her head, she smiled and said: "Brother Wen is right, it is true." Then, she turned to Fang Xun and asked, "Boss Fang, why did you reply last night?" Get a tent, remember?"
Fang Xun was also very drunk last night, and he was still a little dizzy until now. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Miss Lu, stop teasing me, I don't remember this."
The few of them were discussing the matter of getting drunk, when they heard a series of footsteps coming from outside the tent, after a while, Zheng Lun came in with his generals.Wen Daya and the others stopped talking and laughing, Chen Nian also raised his eyes to see Zheng Lun, saw that although his face was still a little pale, his expression was as calm and calm as before.
Zheng Lun slowly glanced around the crowd in the tent, and did not stop when his eyes slid over Chen Nian, and said lightly: "Sorry, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
With his attitude, Chen Nian was not sure whether he still remembered what happened last night, so he said calmly after hearing the words: "It's okay."
Everyone had seen the ceremony and sat down according to their order. Then Zheng Lun looked at Chen Nian and said straight to the point: "Master Xie, you and our two armies cooperated sincerely, so that we can successfully wipe out He Lanyuan's army. After this battle, Zheng Lun Lun is about to lead the army to break the siege of Taixing, what is your army's plan? Do you want to go west together?"
Chen Nian had already made a decision in his heart, but since he had not formally discussed this matter with other rebel generals, he could not answer Zheng Lun directly, so he said, "I still have to discuss this matter with my brothers in the army."
Zheng Lun nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, I'll wait for the reply from the head."
Only the next day, Chen Nian wrote back to Zheng Lun, saying that the rebel army would march westward with Zheng Lun's army to rescue Taixing.Chen Nian didn't say anything in person, but sent Wen Daya and Fang Xun to discuss with Zheng Lun the matter of going west.Zheng Lun thought that Chen Nian was avoiding him on purpose, so he was in a complicated mood, so he was silent for a moment, and asked Wen Da Ya, "Where is Master Xie?"
Wen Daya replied: "Oh, the head of the family has something to do, and she will be away for a few days. She has entrusted me with all the affairs of the general, and told us to listen to your restraint. After she finishes her work, she will catch up from behind. .”
Zheng Lun was surprised when he heard Chen Nian's sudden departure, and couldn't help asking: "Where did she go?"
Wen Daya smiled, and said: "I don't know about it, after all, it's a private matter of the head of the family, it's not easy for us to ask about it."
Hearing what Wen Daya said, Zheng Lun pursed his lips and didn't ask any more questions.
In May of the fourth year of Xinwu, Zheng Lun assigned [-] troops to Song Yan, who was stationed in Yiping, while he led the rest of the troops to the west via Feilongxing.At this time, Feng Junyang had also defeated the Murong Department of the Xian Clan and led the army to approach Yuzhou.Although he has a slight advantage in military strength, Bu Liuguxiao has the advantage of waiting for work at ease.For this reason, Feng Junyang was not in a hurry to start a war with Bu Liuguxiao, but first stopped at Ningquan, a small city in the east of Yuzhou, to rest and reorganize the army.
When the news of the rebel army marching westward with Zheng Lun was sent to Ningquan, Shunping didn't dare to report it to Feng Junyang.Before Zheng Lun intentionally enhanced Chennian's prestige, Feng Junyang was extremely annoyed. Now that Zheng Lun disobeyed Feng Junyang's order and brought Chennian to the west together, Feng Junyang would be furious if he knew about it.
Shunping didn't know what kind of evil Zheng Lun had fallen into. He was clearly extremely loyal to the prince, but he acted against him in this way.He didn't dare to hide the news, and secretly scolded Zheng Lun again and again, and then he bit the bullet and reported the matter to Feng Junyang.
Feng Junyang didn't want to listen to it, but he was not as angry as last time. Instead, he smiled mockingly and said, "Zheng Lun's thoughts are really ridiculous."
Shunping was confused and didn't know what Feng Junyang meant.
Feng Junyang raised his eyes and glanced at him, and ordered: "Go and run yourself and tell Zheng Lun that if he really has feelings for Chen Nian, stop her and don't let her get involved in the Taixing war. On one side is her Biological father, on one side is her adoptive father, you can ask Zheng Lun, do you want to force her to death?"
Shunping just thought of this, he was startled, and hurriedly replied: "I understand."
This matter cannot be delayed, Shunping immediately left Ningquan with a few guards, and quietly went east to meet Zheng Lun, but he didn't know that a few days ago, the He family's navy stationed in the Fuping water village on the south bank of the Wanjiang River , led by He Ze, took advantage of the thick morning fog and flowed down the river, clinging to the south bank.
Two days after the Taixing navy left, Qiu Mulingyue led his troops to besiege the city again.He Zhen didn't know if it was a coincidence, or if Qiu Muling had noticed something, he didn't dare to ignore it, and stayed on the city wall more often every day.On this day, he stayed on the tower until it was getting late, and when he heard someone report that Bai Zhang was looking for him, he turned around and went down the tower, heading into the city.
When they arrived at the gate of the city guard's mansion, they happened to meet Yun Sheng returning on horseback, so He Zhen stopped and asked calmly, "Going to the city wall again?"
"Yes." Yunsheng nodded, got off the horse, threw the rein in his hand to the guard behind him, walked quickly to He Zhen's side, followed him to the mansion, and asked, "Daddy, I heard someone say Zheng Lun has already defeated He Lanyuan, is it true?"
Yunsheng returned home long before Taixing was besieged, and never left.Later, when Qiu Muling attacked the city more and more fiercely, He Zhen once thought about sending his daughter to Yunxi's grandmother, but he didn't want Yunsheng but insisted on not leaving, and he wanted to stay in Taixing to live and die with his family.For this daughter, He Zhen has always been pampered and pampered, and seeing her like this makes her feel even more guilty.Now that he heard her asking about military affairs, he didn't take it seriously, he just said: "It's true."
Yun Sheng hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help asking: "I also heard that sister Chen Nian was there and made great contributions, isn't it?"
She suddenly mentioned Chen Nian, and He Zhen couldn't help but pause. He turned around and silently looked at this sensible and well-behaved daughter since she was a child.Yun Sheng was so guilty of being scrutinized by his father, he glanced at his father carefully, and called softly, "Daddy..."
He Zhen raised his hand to repel the guards following behind him, and asked his daughter softly, "Yunsheng, what do you want to ask Daddy?"
"I've met Sister Chennian a few times before, and she's very good." Yun Sheng replied cautiously.
He Zhen knew her daughter very well, and knew that there must be other words behind her words, so she nodded slowly and remained silent.Sure enough, Yun Sheng took a deep breath, and then asked again: "Daddy, what kind of woman is Sister Chennian's mother?"
She has kept this question in her heart for a long time. Ever since she knew that such a person existed, she has been curious about what kind of woman it is, who can make a serious and upright father marry an open media despite the objections of her family, and how can she treat that person? Heartfelt, infatuated life.
She was very curious, what kind of outstanding woman is that Princess Xian?
He Zhen never thought that Yun Sheng would be the first to ask him about this matter. He opened his eyes slightly for a moment before returning to his senses, and asked calmly, "Why did you ask this?"
Yun Sheng smiled covertly, and explained: "It's because of how outstanding sister Chen Nian is that I wonder what kind of character her mother will be." Although her mind is not as deep as He Zhen, she is also clever, After saying this, he was afraid that He Zhen would not believe him, so he simply retreated, and asked his father, "Daddy, do you love Princess Yashan very much?"
He Zhen was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked forward slowly.Yun Sheng couldn't figure out what his father was thinking, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just quietly followed him.The father and daughter walked along the bluestone path in the mansion for a while, when He Zhen suddenly said softly, "Yes, I love her very much."
Yun Sheng couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he couldn't help asking: "How did Daddy meet her?"
There was a moment of trance on He Zhen's face, and he said, "When I met her, your uncle was still alive, and I was a well-known libertine of the He family. I was idle all day long and caused trouble."
Yun Sheng was stunned when he heard the words, he couldn't imagine that his serious and upright father would be a libertine when he was young.
He Zhen smiled lightly, and said again: "At that time, I only wanted to be a knight-errant, fighting swords in the rivers and lakes. I was beaten by my family several times for this, but I didn't know how to repent. Once, I went to Jiangnan to play with a few cronies. When I was in Jiang, I met her."
He only said one beginning and then stopped, standing there in a daze.
He intentionally kept all of this in his heart, hoping that one day he would be able to forget all of it, but now that he thought about it, it was still as vivid and clear as yesterday.He remembered so clearly that she was wearing a water green shirt and a veiled cap on her head that day. It was obviously a very inconspicuous attire, but because her figure was too slender and charming, she still attracted people's attention.
The few of them are the sons of the rich and powerful in Taixing City, and they are used to lawlessness in daily life. When they see such an outstanding woman, they must comment on it.Several companions kept guessing what this woman looked like, and he got tired of hearing it, and said impatiently: "What does she look like, go over and take off her veil, and you will know if you take a look."
After he said this, everyone gambled with a banquet and pushed him out to do this, but they didn't want to make him lose his mind.
He Zhen closed his eyes, not daring to recall any more.
Yun Sheng couldn't wait for the follow-up for a long time, and couldn't hold back his thoughts for a while, and asked aloud: "Qiu Mulingyue was the princess's guard at that time?"
He Zhen withdrew his mind and replied, "Yes."
Yun Sheng couldn't help asking again: "What did he look like then?"
He Zhen squinted his eyes unconsciously, looked at his daughter, and asked, "The more curious you are about Qiu Muling?"
Yun Sheng was startled by his question, nodded calmly, and said: "Curious. I think he was just a guard next to the princess before, why is he now a general? Tuoba Yao Still trust him."
After hearing this, He Zhen said, "Tuobayao didn't trust him, but Bu Liuguxiao. If Tuobayao trusted him, he wouldn't have asked him to lead the Beimo people to attack Taixing." Looking at Yun Puzzled, He Zhen smiled unconsciously, and said, "You are still young, so you don't understand these things, just remember that even though Qiu Muling has [-] Beimo soldiers, he can't even enter the city." ...and relax your mind, you don't have to run to the city wall every day."
Yun Sheng seemed to understand, but asked, "Why?"
He Zhen didn't want to say any more, just smiled and shook his head.Yunsheng was afraid that her father would become suspicious, so she didn't dare to ask further questions, so she resigned from her father and went to the inner courtyard alone to find her mother.He Zhen stood where he was, and watched his daughter go away, so he called his confidant Cao Yin and ordered: "Ask someone to keep an eye on Yunsheng and see what she does every day."
Cao Yin took the order to leave, and He Zhen then turned to Baizhang.
Baizhang was the only one in the room, and he was sitting under the lamp playing chess. He raised his eyes and saw He Zhen approaching, smiled, and said, "Looking at you, the outside of the city should be pretty safe."
He Zhen nodded, sat down on the bamboo chair opposite Baizhang, and said, "Yes, Qiu Mulingyue did not attack the city."
Bai Zhang put down the chess record in his hand, and glanced at He Zhen with a smile: "You old fox is the most daring, knowing that Qiu Muling is staring at this place, but still dare to tell the navy to go east. You, the He family, have abandoned Jiangnan, not to mention hiding your strength here, but you still want to stab him in the back, beware of retribution."
He Zhen and Bai Zhang have known each other for more than [-] years, He Zhen has always treated him with courtesy, and Bai Zhang has saved He Zhen's life several times, the relationship between the two is already extremely close, and there is no scruple in their conversation.He Zhen was not angry when he heard this, but said lightly: "Feng Junyang is to save Jiangbei, not to save the He family."
Hearing the words, Bai Zhang chuckled, leaned forward and took a teacup from the tea tray, poured a cup of clear tea for He Zhen, and said, "Try it, this water is the morning dew that I asked someone to harvest."
He Zhen took a sip of the tea and felt that the taste of the tea was indeed a little different from the past, but he couldn't say anything good about it. Seeing that Bai Zhang was still staring at him, he could only agree casually: "Good tea."
Then Bai Zhang smiled.
He Zhen asked again: "Why are you looking for me?"
Bai Zhang lowered his head and collected the pieces on the chessboard leisurely, and said with a smile, "I want to tell you a story."
He Zhen didn't want him to invite him here just to tell a story, so he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What story?"
Bai Zhang raised his eyes to look at him, with a smile on his fat and fat face, he said seriously: "Once upon a time, there was a family of martial arts, who could be regarded as the dominant one in the Jianghu. In this generation, there is a weirdo in the family." , actually felt that the family tradition was too vicious and domineering, so he insisted on going out to learn from a teacher. His father was furious, and uttered cruel words, saying that if he insisted on leaving, he would sever the father-son relationship with this son. But this strange The fetus was so stubborn that he ignored his mother's begging, kowtowed three times to his parents, and then left the house. That year, he was 12 years old."
At this point in the story, He Zhen already heard some clues, and asked, "Then the martial arts family is in Lingnan?"
Bai Zhang laughed softly when he heard it, and said mockingly: "It turns out that General He Zhenhe will remember what he did to his heart. I'll pretend you forgot all about it!"
He Zhen remained calm on the face, but secretly tried to stimulate his inner strength, who knew that the dantian was already empty, unable to gather any true energy.
Bai Zhang glanced at him indifferently: "Just a little bit of Qixiang Ruanjin Powder can make people's muscles and bones sore and lose all their internal strength. General He, don't waste your energy in vain. You'd better listen to me and finish the story with peace of mind." He Still picking up the chess pieces in a leisurely manner, he continued, "That young man changed his name and surname, and he has been away from home for ten years. After leaving the house, but after all, he couldn't bear to leave his blood relatives. He was planning to go home secretly to take a look, but he heard a bad news. The martial arts family offended some powerful people, and they were wiped out. In one night, all 37 members of the family were killed. was killed."
He Zhen heard from Baizhang that the young man had excellent medical skills, so he already guessed that it was Baizhang himself.He remained calm and said in a deep voice: "I have nothing to do with the annihilation of the Shan family in Lingnan. I obtained the skills of the life-threatening sword and the soul-seizing palm by accident. When I learned that they belonged to the Shan family, I specially sent people to Lingnan. I found a son with a single surname and returned it."
"What a despicable and hypocritical General He!" Bai Zhang looked up and laughed, his voice suddenly turned cold, "He Zhen, you coveted the Shan family's unique skills back then, and wanted to ask my Shan family to secretly train killers for you. But my father didn't Yes, you came up with such a poisonous plan. First, you asked someone to destroy my Shan family, robbed the martial arts secret books, and hypocritically adopted the children of the Shan surname, and asked them to work for you. You think you have a well-planned plan, but you don’t know that the Shan family still has me. Such an unworthy person left home early. I searched secretly for several years before I found you, the culprit. In order to get close to you, I ruined my reputation, sacrificed my legs, and endured 20 years of hard work in your He family before I finally came here. one day."
At the beginning, the ghost hand Baizhang was chased and killed by several enemies because of his ruthless behavior.Since then, He Zhen has been raised in the He family, saved his and He Ze's lives several times, and finally gained He Zhen's trust and regarded him as a close friend.But he didn't expect Baizhang to be the son of the Shan family, and all of this came from his design.
He Zhen raised his eyes to look at Bai Zhang, and asked calmly, "If you want to take my life, you don't have to wait until now. You just made a sudden attack today, but there is another reason?"
"Take your life? How can just taking your life be enough to avenge my Shan family!" Bai Zhang sneered, and said, "He Zhen, I won't kill you, I want you to watch this Taixing city collapse and the He family die !"
He Zhen's complexion changed drastically, he stood up with force, and shouted angrily, "Bai Zhang, how dare you!"
Cao Rong, who was waiting outside the courtyard, heard that there was something wrong in the house, and rushed in with his guards. Seeing the situation of He Zhen and Bai Zhang, he obviously turned his face for some reason, and stepped forward to support the crumbling He Zhen called out, "General!"
Without waiting for orders, two people stepped in front of He Zhen to protect each other.The rest of the people drew out their swords one after another and surrounded Baizhang to prevent him from changing.
He Zhen couldn't stand still, grabbed Cao Rong's arm, and only ordered: "Quickly send an order to all the gates of the city, ordering them to close the gates tightly, and take strict precautions. No matter who comes or what kind of warrant they are holding, they are not allowed to open without authorization." City gate. Anyone who is suspicious will be killed without mercy."
Bai Zhang sneered when he heard the words: "It's late, He Zhen, at this moment, Jing Yuxuan may have brought someone to open the city gate!"
He Zhen was shocked when he heard that, Jing Yuxuan had been in and out of Taixing many times in the past six months to find Baizhang to heal his wounds, he had known about this for a long time, and even deliberately recruited him, but because the female devil was too moody, he gave up , I don't want her to be used by Bai Zhang.
A look of madness appeared on Bai Zhang's face, and he said again: "Although Jing Yuxuan is a devil, she is a trustworthy person. I will broaden her meridians, and she will spread the letter between me and Qiu Muling. You are Qiu Muling. Why didn’t Mu Lingyue besiege Taixing recently? Really thought he was afraid of you? He was just waiting for your sailors to go east, waiting for me to find an opportunity to open the city gate for him! Hahahaha..."
He laughed wildly a few times, then stopped abruptly, and sat on the wheelchair with his eyes wide open, without any movement.The guards on the side were all shocked and terrified. One of them carefully went forward to sniff Baizhang, turned around and said to He Zhen in a trembling voice, "Dead, dead."
He Zhen couldn't care about Bai Zhang's life at this moment, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and issued a few orders in a row, and when the guards left in a hurry, Cao Rong carried him back to the main hall of the front yard.Before he could walk out of the courtyard, he heard a sudden scream of killing from the north of the city. He Zhen's feet softened and he almost fell to the ground.
It's over, the city is broken!
Sure enough, not long after, a general came from the North City Gate to report the news. The North City Gate was forcibly opened by a group of men in black with strong martial arts from the inside. The enemy had already been killed into Beicheng by the Beimo people.
The main force of Taixing has already gone east, as long as Qiu Muling opens the city gate, Taixing will be lost.He Zhen's face was livid, his teeth clenched tightly, and it took a while before he recovered from his breath.Several confidants and generals had already arrived upon hearing the news, hearing that Qiu Mulingyue had already entered the city, they all advised He Zhen to abandon the city and flee, and make plans when the navy is transferred back in the future.
He Zhen shook his head slowly, he can't run away, he is He Zhen, he must never abandon Taixing and run away.If he escaped, it would be tantamount to handing over Taixing to Qiu Mulingyue, even if He Ze rushed back with the navy in the future, it would be difficult to take Taixing back.For the current plan, the only way to survive is to fight Qiu Mulingyue to the death in the city to make He Ze come back.
"I can't go, the North City is lost, just go and get it back!" He Zhen stabilized his mind, reassigned the city's defense, assigned those generals, and then ordered his confidant to go to the backyard to find Yunsheng.
After a while, Yun Sheng hurried over with Cao Yin, and when he entered the door, seeing He Zhen's appearance, he couldn't help being shocked, and rushed to his father's knee, asking anxiously, "Daddy, what's wrong?"
He Zhen smiled wryly, and replied: "Qiu Mulingyue has already invaded Beicheng, and Taixing City has been destroyed."
Yun Sheng was stunned when he heard that, his father had just told her that Taixing was fine, how could he be suddenly attacked by Qiu Muling?He Zhen put his hands on his daughter's hair, looked down at her deeply, and said in a deep voice, "Yunsheng, listen, Dad wants to entrust you with something, listen carefully."
Yun Sheng's mind was already in a mess, and he could only nod in panic when he heard the words.
He Zhen said: "You take your mother and younger brother, as well as your twelfth brother's wife and children, out of the city through the secret road, and take refuge with your grandmother in Yunxi."
"What about you? What about you, Daddy?" Yunsheng immediately asked.
He Zhen smiled faintly, and replied, "Daddy needs to stay in Taixing, and wait for Ze'er and your Uncle Mo to bring the navy back."
Upon hearing that He Zhen would not leave, Yun Sheng shouted: "No! I will not leave! I want to stay in Taixing with my father, I—"
He Zhen interrupted his daughter: "Yunsheng, listen to Daddy."
Hearing the words, Yun Sheng just shook his head stubbornly, with tears in his almond eyes, and said: "No, I won't listen! If you want to leave, everyone will leave, or if you don't leave, no one will leave. We are a family, we must Inseparable, life and death are together."
Her words were obviously childish nonsense, but He Zhen smiled when he heard them, even his already cold heart didn't feel a little hot.He supported his daughter's head with both hands, stared into her eyes, and said word by word: "Yunsheng, do you want to watch your mother and younger brother die under the swords of Beimo people? Be obedient and take them with you." Go, protect them well, Daddy believes that you can do it, you are no worse than Chen Nian at all."
Yun Sheng met his father's gaze, his face became firmer, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll take them away."
There were already trusted guards waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw Yun Sheng coming out of the hall, they immediately followed.After walking a few steps, Yunsheng couldn't help but stop again, turned around and glanced at his father sitting in the chair, then turned around resolutely, and walked quickly towards the backyard.
On May [-]th, the city of Taixing was broken, and Qiu Mulingyue, the left general of the Xian clan, led his army into the city.He Zhen defended Taixing to the core, and the defenders competed desperately with Beimo soldiers and horses in the city. The casualties were exhausted. That's why the Beimo people captured the Taixing city guard mansion.
Qiu Muling jumped off his horse, stood under the stone steps, and looked up at the open gate of the city guard's mansion.
In the second year of Yongping, he walked out from here with A Yuan on his back. At that time, behind him was the flames that soared into the sky, and in front of him were inexhaustible evil spirits. A Yuan brought out the door.From then on, there was no heart in his chest, only one thought was left, he wanted to avenge A Yuan, he wanted to kill back, enter through the main gate, and kill no one in the He family.
After 23 years, he finally stood here again.But A Yuan, where have you been?You might come back and take another look at me?Watch me follow the road you walked that day, step by step into the He family, kill the heartless people who betrayed you, kill those He family members who murdered you, and use their blood to pay homage to your undead.
A Yuan, you stay by my side, stay with me, okay?
As the sun set in the west, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Qiu Mu Lingyue's armor. It was clearly an extremely warm color, but it shone with an icy light, chilling the surrounding air.Qiu Muling slowly picked up the long knife in his hand, pursed his thin lips tightly, and walked towards the door step by step with murderous intent on his upright and resolute face.
In the main courtyard, He Zhen was neatly dressed in armor, leaning on a pillar with a long sword in his hand, waiting for Qiu Muling to approach him step by step.There are not many guards left in the courtyard, and those who can stay here at this moment are all He Zhen's dead soldiers.Although they were overwhelmed by Qiu Mulingyue's bravery, they still rushed forward regardless of life and death, trying to stop Qiu Mulingyue's advance.
Qiu Muling became more expressionless, and slashed all the way with a long knife in his hand. He didn't stop until he knocked the last person to the ground, and then looked up at He Zhen who was in the corridor coldly.
There was no look of fear on He Zhen's face, but instead he smiled faintly at Qiu Muling, and said, "Qiu Mulingyue, I haven't seen you for many years."
The more Qiu Muling had no intention of reminiscing with He Zhen, he just said in a cold voice, "Draw your sword."
He Zhen was poisoned by a strange poison, and his martial arts were useless. Hearing the words, he shook his head slowly and said, "It's not necessary. If you want to kill me, just do it. But before that, I just want to know one thing. What did you say before you died?"
Qiu Mu Lingyue's eyes seemed to be frozen, and he exuded a cold air: "You don't deserve to know."
While speaking, other soldiers brought many crying, struggling men, women, old and children into the hospital. A guard of the Xian family came forward and reported: "General, all members of the He clan are here, only the wives and children of He Zhen and He Ze are here. Can't find it."
Qiu Muling glanced at He Zhen more and more, and said in a deep voice: "Divide into two groups of men and horses to chase, one way goes east along the Wanjiang River, and the other way crosses the river to Yunxi."
The guard led the way.
He Zhen looked indifferently at those members of the He clan who were crying for help, smiled mockingly at Qiu Muling, and said, "The people who killed A Yuan back then, except for me, the chief culprit, have all passed away. It is useless to kill all these people."
Qiu Muling was already taciturn, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with the man in front of him at this moment.He only looked back at the men and women who were kneeling on the ground crying, turned his head and continued to look at He Zhen, and said ruthlessly, "Kill."
After uttering one word, the scimitars in the hands of the soldiers over there will fall one by one, regardless of whether it is male or female, old or young, they will kill them all.There was a river of blood flowing in the courtyard for a while, which was horrible.
Although He Zhen's face didn't change, the veins in his hands holding the sword hilt were bulging, revealing his true inner emotions.After a while, the cries in the courtyard gradually faded away, and when the head of the last person was cut off with a machete, the screams stopped abruptly.He Zhen slowly closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, but suddenly he raised his head and burst out laughing.
Qiu Muling stood there motionless, only looking at He Zhen coldly.
He Zhen laughed for a long time before he stopped, but the corners of his eyes were already a little wet, and he asked, "Qiu Mulingyue, do you think this is how you killed the He family? No, you can't kill the He family, you will never kill them." I can't kill them all. Even if everyone is dead, there is still Chennian, and the Chennian that you raised. She is the daughter born to me by A Yuan, and the blood of my He family is flowing on her body."
He Zhen's eyes turned blood red at some point. He stared at Qiu Mulingyue and said word by word: "Chen Nian is the daughter of A Yuan and I, the daughter born of the fusion of flesh and blood between me and A Yuan." .She was in Jizhou, and killed 10 horses from your Xian family's Helan tribe. She is the daughter of my He family!"
Qiu Muling pursed his lips more and remained silent, he just stepped forward and stabbed He Zhen's chest with a knife.
Blood was bleeding from the corner of He Zhen's mouth, but with a smile on his face, he leaned into Qiu Mu Lingyue's ear and said intermittently: "Do you think that she is yours when she dies by your side? You are wrong, she has always been It's not yours. Her person and her heart are only me from the beginning to the end. Whether it's love or hate, it's just me, and it has nothing to do with you, Qiu Muling."
Qiu Mu Lingyue didn't have the anger that He Zhen expected, only deep contempt and disdain in his eyes: "She said she regretted it."
He Zhen froze all over.
Qiu Muling withdrew the knife and said, "Ah Yuan's last words, she said, she regretted it."
He Zhen's expression was a little dull, thinking about what A Yuan regretted?Did you meet him, or did you marry him?Or did he regret believing that he would protect her well, but ended up killing her?
Blood foam kept pouring out of He Zhen's mouth, making it more and more difficult for him to breathe.He Zhen's vision gradually blurred, and the surrounding voices gradually faded away.The world slowly sank into darkness, but suddenly brightened again. He seemed to be back on the ferry again, with her at the bow and he at the stern.Jiang Feng blew up a corner of her curtain, revealing a touch of delicate whiteness inside.Although it was just a glimpse, it made his heart beat like a drum.He pretended to be calm, held the long sword in his arms, and walked towards her step by step in the eyes of everyone.
The reeds are green, and the white dew is frost.The so-called Iraqis are on the water side.Backtracking from it, the road is long and obstructive.Traveling back from it, Wan is in the middle of the water...
A Yuan, do you know?I also regret it, I thought, I can hurry back.
On May [-]th, He Zhen died in the Taixing City Shoufu.Qiu Muling Yue ordered his men to chop off his head and hang it on the top of the city. At the same time, he sent troops for seven days and let the Beimo soldiers burn, kill and plunder him as a reward.So far, Taixing has completely fallen.At this time, the Taixing navy had not yet received the news that Qiu Muling had invaded the city.
Taixing City, the largest city in Jiangbei, is also the most important town in Jiangbei. It was once said: if Taixing is lost, the natural danger of Wanjiang River will not be enough.During the Shengyuan period, Zhou Zhiren, a famous general of Beimo, led hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege Taixing for two years. Taixing was still impenetrable, but this time Qiu Mulingyue only used [-] Beimo miscellaneous troops. Captured Taixing City.
Taixing lost so quickly, the world was shocked.
After Qiu Muling captured Taixing, the first thing he did was to send a message to Bu Liuguxiao in Yuzhou on his flying horse that all the people in the desert of Daobei came for money.If Taixing is to be stable, another elite soldier must come to defend the city.
When Bu Liuguxiao received the news, he made a decisive decision, leaving 4 troops to guard Yuzhou, and taking the rest of the troops to Taixing.At the same time, Feng Junyang's army did not know that Taixing had changed hands, and had just set off from Ningquan and headed for Yuzhou.On the other hand, Zheng Lun's army, who rushed to Taixing for rescue, had just marched halfway, and was still thousands of miles away from Taixing.
And Chen Nian is still in the Taihang Mountains at this moment.
In addition to Chaoyangzi and Xiaobao, there is another resident in Mrs. Yang's small courtyard, but it is Chaoyangzi's younger brother, Mr. Qiao.
At first, it was because Feng Junyang suspected that the "Master Xie" in the rebel army was Chen Nian himself, so he ordered Qiao Lao to come to check.After sending the news back, Feng Junyang learned that Chen Nian really came out of the mountain, and his daughter Xiaobao was only taken care of by Chaoyangzi, so he sent Qiao Lao back to protect Xiaobao.
Based on Chaoyangzi's dislike for Feng Junyang, if Feng Junyang sent someone else, Chaoyangzi would try every means to drive them away, but this person who came was his junior, poisonous, poisonous, beating, beating .Even though Chaoyangzi was reluctant in every possible way, he could only ask Mr. Qiao to stay.
Chaoyangzi was only worried about how to explain to Chennian. He didn't want Chennian to come back to see Mr. Qiao, but he didn't react too much. Instead, he treated Mr. Qiao very politely.Chaoyangzi looked at it strangely, and couldn't help but secretly asked Chen Nian, "You and Feng Junyang are reconciled?"
Chen Nian was coaxing Xiaobao to play, and upon hearing the words, he just replied casually: "Qiao always comes to protect Xiaobao, I must treat him politely, what does it have to do with Feng Junyang?"
Chao Yangzi blinked his bean eyes, and said emphatically, "He was sent by Feng Junyang."
Chen Nian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter who sent it, as long as it is for Xiao Bao's good, I am grateful."
Chaoyangzi was speechless, rolled his eyes at Chennian, and saw Chennian coaxing Xiaobao with a pastry, he couldn't help but said: "It's time to eat, you give her such a big snack, why don't you call her?" Have a meal?"
Chen Nian had just given the pastries to Xiaobao, and he felt a little regretful after hearing this, so he discussed with Xiaobao in a good voice: "My dear little treasure, give the pastry to mother first, and let's eat this after dinner, okay?" it is good?"
Children are the most protective food. How can you return what you got?It's good that Chen Nian didn't say this, but when he said this, Xiao Bao twisted his small body, avoided his mother left and right, and shouted inarticulately: "No, no."
Chen Nian couldn't coax his daughter back, so he felt helpless for a while.Chaoyangzi was on the side laughing, obviously wanting to watch a play.Chen Nian glanced at him lightly, then turned back to look at Xiao Bao, saw her small hands holding the piece of cake tightly, he bent his lips and smiled, and suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted: "Look, Xiao Bao! There are tits! "
After all, Xiaobao was still young, so he immediately fell for the trick, and raised his head to look for the tit in the sky.Chen Nian hurriedly leaned over and quickly took a big bite of the dim sum in Xiao Bao's hand.Xiao Bao looked up and couldn't find the tit, just about to lower his head, Chen Nian pointed to the sky on the other side and shouted: "Over there!"
So, Xiaobao hurriedly turned around to look for it.Taking advantage of this time, Chen Nian took another bite from the pastry.Chaoyangzi didn't want Chen Nian to be so shameless, he stared at him dumbfounded, with his mouth half-opened and speechless.Xiao Bao raised his head and looked around, but couldn't see any tits, so he couldn't help but turned his head and looked at his mother in confusion.
At this time, Chen Nian had swallowed the snacks in his mouth, and said innocently: "Oh, the tits have all flown away."
Little Treasure seemed to understand, put down the tit, and then remembered the snack in his hand. When he saw that there was not much snack left in his hand, he was startled for a moment, then his little mouth twitched aggrievedly, and immediately raised his face and let out a loud voice burst into tears.
Chen Nian hurriedly picked up Xiaobao, turned around and pointed at Chaoyangzi who was still squatting stupidly on the ground, and sternly accused him: "Bad Daoist, grab our Xiaobao's snacks, it's really bad!"
When Xiao Bao heard this, he was naturally even more wronged and cried louder.
Chaoyangzi was about to vomit blood, and watched Chennian coax Xiaobao to leave, then realized, pointing at the backs of Chennian mother and daughter, shouted angrily: "This girl, this bad girl!"
At dinner, a few people ate around the small table, Xiaobao still remembered Chaoyangzi's grudge against her for grabbing her snacks, and refused to pay any attention to him.Mr. Qiao and Mrs. Yang didn't know what happened, they both had strange expressions on their faces, Mr. Qiao couldn't help but asked Chaoyangzi, "Brother, why did you provoke Xiaobao?"
Chaoyangzi glared at Chen Nian bitterly when he heard the words, and replied angrily: "It's not the Daoist who provoked it. The Daoist was framed! Someone played tricks on a child who was less than two years old. And he blamed others, and made Daoist a villain."
Don't say that Mrs. Yang can't understand these words, even Mr. Qiao is getting more and more confused.
Chennian pursed his lips and smiled, lowered his head and whispered a few words in his daughter's ear, and he didn't know what he said. Xiaobao refused at first, then stood up from the low stool, clenched his little hands Handing the deformed dough cake to Chaoyangzi, he yelled inarticulately, "Daodao, eat."
Little Treasure was already very good-looking, tender and tender, white and fat, with pink makeup and jade-like polish, and when he talked to Chaoyangzi in such a childlike voice, Chaoyangzi's whole heart seemed to melt, and he hurriedly took Xiaobao into the room. In his arms, while eating the noodle cake, he said generously to Chen Nian: "For Xiaobao's sake, I won't argue with you, Daoist."
Chen Nian blinked and said, "Thank you, Daoist."
Chaoyangzi just wanted to snort, but suddenly remembered Xiaobao in his arms, and quickly suppressed the cold snort, ignoring Chen Nian's answer, just coaxing Xiaobao to talk with a smile on his face.
It was late in the mountains, and after everyone had dinner, the sky was already dark.Xiaobao had been playing with Chennian for a long time, and he was already sleepy and tired. Mrs. Yang wanted to take Xiaobao back to the house to sleep, but she didn't want Xiaobao to cling to Chennian and refused to let go.Seeing this, Chen Nian couldn't bear it, so he said, "Ma'am, I'll take her in later, and sleep with me at night."
Mrs. Yang returned to the room with the lamp, but before leaving, she sighed, turned around and said to Chen Nian: "Don't tell her to fall in love with you like this, or if you leave in two days, the child will inevitably cry again, even more so." suffer."
After saying this, the rest of the people at the table fell silent.Chen Nian lowered his head, stared blankly at Xiao Bao, and went to Yang Zi for a moment of silence, but suddenly said: "Why don't you take Xiao Bao with you! Qiao Yu and I are protecting you. With you, nothing will happen."
"No." Chen Nian flatly refused, she raised her eyes to Chaoyang Zi, and said coldly, "That's a battlefield, swords have no eyes."
Chaoyangzi also felt that what he said just now was ill-considered. Hearing what Chen Nian said, instead of staring at him to refute, he lowered his head apologetically.
Seeing him like this, Chen Nian explained again: "Master Daoist, I have no other intentions."
Chaoyangzi said in a muffled voice, "I know."
Because it was Chaoyangzi who hijacked Xiaobao, Chennian was forced to go out with him and get involved in the chaos of the war. For this reason, Chaoyangzi always felt guilty towards Chennian's mother and daughter.Chen Nian also knew his mentality. After thinking about it, he explained to him: "The west side is different from Jizhou. Hundreds of thousands of troops gather together. It's not enough to just point out cleverness. You have to have real skills. There are so many famous generals. From marching to fighting, everyone is better than me. I just go to have a look first, and if I don’t need me, I will come back.”
She spoke easily, but both Chaoyangzi and Qiao Lao knew that things were by no means so simple.The more Feng Junyang and Qiu Muling confront each other, no matter who wins and who loses, who is killed or injured, it will be a heartache for Chen Nian.
All of a sudden, Chaoyangzi felt regretful, regretting that he shouldn't use the word "great righteousness" to press Chen Nian.What does the common people in the world have to do with her?Even if she grew up eating a lot of food, she still survived those tens of thousands of refugees, and it was enough to return them back!Why should she be forced to carry this "righteousness" alone!
The more Chaoyangzi thought about it, the more he hated himself, couldn't help raising his hand and slapped himself several times, cursing: "I'm an old man who picks persimmons and bullies honest people, why don't I persuade that Does Tuoba Yao feel sorry for the common people in the world?"
Chen Nian and Qiao Lao looked dumbfounded, but it was Chen Nian who came to his senses first, quickly reached out his hand to stop Chao Yangzi, and shouted in a low voice: "Master Daoist! What are you doing?"
Chaoyangzi hit him hard, just for a moment, the cheek on that side was already swollen, he gritted his teeth and said, "No, don't go to Taixing, stay here and take Xiaobao with peace of mind."
Chen Nian knew his intentions and was moved, but said in a deep voice: "Master Dao, I have to go. Not only for righteousness, but also for personal reasons." She lowered her head to look at Xiao Bao who was sleeping soundly in her arms, He raised his head to look at Chaoyangzi again, and forced a smile at him with the corners of his mouth pulled, "Master Daoist, you and Mr. Qiao must take care of Xiaobao for me, and wait for me to come back."
Two days later, while Xiaobao was sleeping, Chen Nian bid farewell to Chaoyangzi, Qiao Lao and others, and rode out of South Taihang to the west one by one, chasing Zheng Lun's army that had already rushed to Taixing.Her speed was much faster than the army's march, but she caught up in just a few days. She didn't want to see Zheng Lun, but she saw Shunping first.
Chen Nian was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the big flag erected in front of the tent, seeing that it was indeed Zheng Lun's handsome flag, he finally settled down.
Shunping just came out of the tent, when he looked up to see Chen Nian, he was both surprised and happy, and said: "Finally, I've waited for you, I thought I'd miss you."
He arrived earlier than Chen Nian, seeing that Chen Nian was not in the army, he thought of continuing to go east to stop her, but because he was afraid of getting lost with Chen Nian, he had to wait for her in Zheng Lun's army.After waiting for these few days, and finally waiting for Chen Nian, Shunping suddenly felt relieved.
Chen Nian nodded slightly, without asking why Shunping appeared here, passed him and went straight to the big tent, asking the guards outside to inform her.
Zheng Lun was the only person in the big tent, and when he looked up to see Chen Nian coming in, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.He already knew from Shunping the reason why Chennian broke up with Feng Junyang, and also knew that Chennian gave birth to a daughter for Feng Junyang.Junpei told him these things, just to let him get rid of those thoughts that he shouldn't have.But for some reason, instead of dissipating his thoughts, he became more eager to move.
Now that she has broken with the prince, can she continue to be Xie Chennian?Thinking of this, Zheng Lun couldn't stop feeling hot in his heart, but when he saw Chen Nian's slightly cold face, his heart sank slowly.She didn't know what he was thinking, she even thought he had always loved Yunsheng.
He was thinking wildly, but Chen Nian had already explained to him: "I have some private matters to do, I didn't think it would take so many days, luckily I caught up with you in time."
Zheng Lun said nothing, just nodded with a sullen face.
Chen Nianhui misunderstood what he meant, smiled lightly, and said again: "General Zheng, don't blame him, it's because he was in a hurry and didn't care to come and say hello to you."
Zheng Lun guessed that she must be visiting her daughter when she left suddenly. Seeing that she refused to tell him even a word of the truth, she was inevitably a little disappointed, and lowered her head to hide the wry smile on her lips. "It's okay." He paused, then asked again, "Did you see Junpei outside just now?"
Chen Nian said: "I see, I just said a few words."
Zheng Lun raised his eyes and took a deep look at her. He didn't think of other excuses to stop Chen Nian as Shun Ping asked, but said bluntly: "He came to deliver a message for the lord, and the lord doesn't want you to go." Taixing."
Seeing Shunping outside the tent just now, Chen Nian guessed that he must be here to work for Feng Junyang, but he didn't want to just spread the word.Zheng Lun glanced at Chen Nian's expression, saw that she was a little dazed, and added: "My lord is afraid that you will be in a dilemma."
Chen Nian came back to his senses and asked Zheng Lun, "If you were me, would you stay out of the matter and turn around because you were afraid of being in a dilemma?"
Zheng Lun thought for a while and replied, "No."
A slight smile appeared on Chen Nian's lips, and he said: "I won't either. I know he has good intentions, but this matter cannot allow me to escape. No matter what the result is, I will always do my best. Waiting for someone to tell me the result."
Zheng Lun looked at her intently, and after a while, he replied in a deep voice, "Okay."
As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes outside the tent, the two people in the tent had very good ears, they could hear the rapid sound of horseshoes coming from the west, and their expressions changed slightly.
(End of this chapter)
The personal guard thanked Chen Nian and hurriedly took people out of the camp.The people searched along the river for a long time, and finally found Zheng Lun who was drunk and passed out in the grass.He only heard about this from Wen Daya on the second day of Chennian, he hesitated and said: "When I saw him before, he was still conscious, how could he be so drunk?"
Wen Daya smiled and said: "One can tell that the master has never been drunk before, the strength of the alcohol will come and go, sometimes people are fine after drinking, and when the strength of the alcohol turns up, it will not work. If you don’t believe me, go ask General Zheng now, I guess he doesn’t even remember seeing you last night.”
He didn't mean to say this, but Chen Nian listened to it intentionally, the embarrassing thing happened last night, she didn't even have time to hide from Zheng Lun, how could she ask him if he still remembered what happened last night.Chen Nian smiled, but did not speak, but Wen Daya misunderstood what she meant, he thought she didn't believe it, so he pointed to the sparrow next to him and said: "If you don't believe me, ask her, but that's it."
Ling Que is quite the opposite of Chen Nian, although she is also a young girl, she is very good at drinking.When she saw Wen Daya pointing her head, she smiled and said: "Brother Wen is right, it is true." Then, she turned to Fang Xun and asked, "Boss Fang, why did you reply last night?" Get a tent, remember?"
Fang Xun was also very drunk last night, and he was still a little dizzy until now. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Miss Lu, stop teasing me, I don't remember this."
The few of them were discussing the matter of getting drunk, when they heard a series of footsteps coming from outside the tent, after a while, Zheng Lun came in with his generals.Wen Daya and the others stopped talking and laughing, Chen Nian also raised his eyes to see Zheng Lun, saw that although his face was still a little pale, his expression was as calm and calm as before.
Zheng Lun slowly glanced around the crowd in the tent, and did not stop when his eyes slid over Chen Nian, and said lightly: "Sorry, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
With his attitude, Chen Nian was not sure whether he still remembered what happened last night, so he said calmly after hearing the words: "It's okay."
Everyone had seen the ceremony and sat down according to their order. Then Zheng Lun looked at Chen Nian and said straight to the point: "Master Xie, you and our two armies cooperated sincerely, so that we can successfully wipe out He Lanyuan's army. After this battle, Zheng Lun Lun is about to lead the army to break the siege of Taixing, what is your army's plan? Do you want to go west together?"
Chen Nian had already made a decision in his heart, but since he had not formally discussed this matter with other rebel generals, he could not answer Zheng Lun directly, so he said, "I still have to discuss this matter with my brothers in the army."
Zheng Lun nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, I'll wait for the reply from the head."
Only the next day, Chen Nian wrote back to Zheng Lun, saying that the rebel army would march westward with Zheng Lun's army to rescue Taixing.Chen Nian didn't say anything in person, but sent Wen Daya and Fang Xun to discuss with Zheng Lun the matter of going west.Zheng Lun thought that Chen Nian was avoiding him on purpose, so he was in a complicated mood, so he was silent for a moment, and asked Wen Da Ya, "Where is Master Xie?"
Wen Daya replied: "Oh, the head of the family has something to do, and she will be away for a few days. She has entrusted me with all the affairs of the general, and told us to listen to your restraint. After she finishes her work, she will catch up from behind. .”
Zheng Lun was surprised when he heard Chen Nian's sudden departure, and couldn't help asking: "Where did she go?"
Wen Daya smiled, and said: "I don't know about it, after all, it's a private matter of the head of the family, it's not easy for us to ask about it."
Hearing what Wen Daya said, Zheng Lun pursed his lips and didn't ask any more questions.
In May of the fourth year of Xinwu, Zheng Lun assigned [-] troops to Song Yan, who was stationed in Yiping, while he led the rest of the troops to the west via Feilongxing.At this time, Feng Junyang had also defeated the Murong Department of the Xian Clan and led the army to approach Yuzhou.Although he has a slight advantage in military strength, Bu Liuguxiao has the advantage of waiting for work at ease.For this reason, Feng Junyang was not in a hurry to start a war with Bu Liuguxiao, but first stopped at Ningquan, a small city in the east of Yuzhou, to rest and reorganize the army.
When the news of the rebel army marching westward with Zheng Lun was sent to Ningquan, Shunping didn't dare to report it to Feng Junyang.Before Zheng Lun intentionally enhanced Chennian's prestige, Feng Junyang was extremely annoyed. Now that Zheng Lun disobeyed Feng Junyang's order and brought Chennian to the west together, Feng Junyang would be furious if he knew about it.
Shunping didn't know what kind of evil Zheng Lun had fallen into. He was clearly extremely loyal to the prince, but he acted against him in this way.He didn't dare to hide the news, and secretly scolded Zheng Lun again and again, and then he bit the bullet and reported the matter to Feng Junyang.
Feng Junyang didn't want to listen to it, but he was not as angry as last time. Instead, he smiled mockingly and said, "Zheng Lun's thoughts are really ridiculous."
Shunping was confused and didn't know what Feng Junyang meant.
Feng Junyang raised his eyes and glanced at him, and ordered: "Go and run yourself and tell Zheng Lun that if he really has feelings for Chen Nian, stop her and don't let her get involved in the Taixing war. On one side is her Biological father, on one side is her adoptive father, you can ask Zheng Lun, do you want to force her to death?"
Shunping just thought of this, he was startled, and hurriedly replied: "I understand."
This matter cannot be delayed, Shunping immediately left Ningquan with a few guards, and quietly went east to meet Zheng Lun, but he didn't know that a few days ago, the He family's navy stationed in the Fuping water village on the south bank of the Wanjiang River , led by He Ze, took advantage of the thick morning fog and flowed down the river, clinging to the south bank.
Two days after the Taixing navy left, Qiu Mulingyue led his troops to besiege the city again.He Zhen didn't know if it was a coincidence, or if Qiu Muling had noticed something, he didn't dare to ignore it, and stayed on the city wall more often every day.On this day, he stayed on the tower until it was getting late, and when he heard someone report that Bai Zhang was looking for him, he turned around and went down the tower, heading into the city.
When they arrived at the gate of the city guard's mansion, they happened to meet Yun Sheng returning on horseback, so He Zhen stopped and asked calmly, "Going to the city wall again?"
"Yes." Yunsheng nodded, got off the horse, threw the rein in his hand to the guard behind him, walked quickly to He Zhen's side, followed him to the mansion, and asked, "Daddy, I heard someone say Zheng Lun has already defeated He Lanyuan, is it true?"
Yunsheng returned home long before Taixing was besieged, and never left.Later, when Qiu Muling attacked the city more and more fiercely, He Zhen once thought about sending his daughter to Yunxi's grandmother, but he didn't want Yunsheng but insisted on not leaving, and he wanted to stay in Taixing to live and die with his family.For this daughter, He Zhen has always been pampered and pampered, and seeing her like this makes her feel even more guilty.Now that he heard her asking about military affairs, he didn't take it seriously, he just said: "It's true."
Yun Sheng hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help asking: "I also heard that sister Chen Nian was there and made great contributions, isn't it?"
She suddenly mentioned Chen Nian, and He Zhen couldn't help but pause. He turned around and silently looked at this sensible and well-behaved daughter since she was a child.Yun Sheng was so guilty of being scrutinized by his father, he glanced at his father carefully, and called softly, "Daddy..."
He Zhen raised his hand to repel the guards following behind him, and asked his daughter softly, "Yunsheng, what do you want to ask Daddy?"
"I've met Sister Chennian a few times before, and she's very good." Yun Sheng replied cautiously.
He Zhen knew her daughter very well, and knew that there must be other words behind her words, so she nodded slowly and remained silent.Sure enough, Yun Sheng took a deep breath, and then asked again: "Daddy, what kind of woman is Sister Chennian's mother?"
She has kept this question in her heart for a long time. Ever since she knew that such a person existed, she has been curious about what kind of woman it is, who can make a serious and upright father marry an open media despite the objections of her family, and how can she treat that person? Heartfelt, infatuated life.
She was very curious, what kind of outstanding woman is that Princess Xian?
He Zhen never thought that Yun Sheng would be the first to ask him about this matter. He opened his eyes slightly for a moment before returning to his senses, and asked calmly, "Why did you ask this?"
Yun Sheng smiled covertly, and explained: "It's because of how outstanding sister Chen Nian is that I wonder what kind of character her mother will be." Although her mind is not as deep as He Zhen, she is also clever, After saying this, he was afraid that He Zhen would not believe him, so he simply retreated, and asked his father, "Daddy, do you love Princess Yashan very much?"
He Zhen was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked forward slowly.Yun Sheng couldn't figure out what his father was thinking, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just quietly followed him.The father and daughter walked along the bluestone path in the mansion for a while, when He Zhen suddenly said softly, "Yes, I love her very much."
Yun Sheng couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he couldn't help asking: "How did Daddy meet her?"
There was a moment of trance on He Zhen's face, and he said, "When I met her, your uncle was still alive, and I was a well-known libertine of the He family. I was idle all day long and caused trouble."
Yun Sheng was stunned when he heard the words, he couldn't imagine that his serious and upright father would be a libertine when he was young.
He Zhen smiled lightly, and said again: "At that time, I only wanted to be a knight-errant, fighting swords in the rivers and lakes. I was beaten by my family several times for this, but I didn't know how to repent. Once, I went to Jiangnan to play with a few cronies. When I was in Jiang, I met her."
He only said one beginning and then stopped, standing there in a daze.
He intentionally kept all of this in his heart, hoping that one day he would be able to forget all of it, but now that he thought about it, it was still as vivid and clear as yesterday.He remembered so clearly that she was wearing a water green shirt and a veiled cap on her head that day. It was obviously a very inconspicuous attire, but because her figure was too slender and charming, she still attracted people's attention.
The few of them are the sons of the rich and powerful in Taixing City, and they are used to lawlessness in daily life. When they see such an outstanding woman, they must comment on it.Several companions kept guessing what this woman looked like, and he got tired of hearing it, and said impatiently: "What does she look like, go over and take off her veil, and you will know if you take a look."
After he said this, everyone gambled with a banquet and pushed him out to do this, but they didn't want to make him lose his mind.
He Zhen closed his eyes, not daring to recall any more.
Yun Sheng couldn't wait for the follow-up for a long time, and couldn't hold back his thoughts for a while, and asked aloud: "Qiu Mulingyue was the princess's guard at that time?"
He Zhen withdrew his mind and replied, "Yes."
Yun Sheng couldn't help asking again: "What did he look like then?"
He Zhen squinted his eyes unconsciously, looked at his daughter, and asked, "The more curious you are about Qiu Muling?"
Yun Sheng was startled by his question, nodded calmly, and said: "Curious. I think he was just a guard next to the princess before, why is he now a general? Tuoba Yao Still trust him."
After hearing this, He Zhen said, "Tuobayao didn't trust him, but Bu Liuguxiao. If Tuobayao trusted him, he wouldn't have asked him to lead the Beimo people to attack Taixing." Looking at Yun Puzzled, He Zhen smiled unconsciously, and said, "You are still young, so you don't understand these things, just remember that even though Qiu Muling has [-] Beimo soldiers, he can't even enter the city." ...and relax your mind, you don't have to run to the city wall every day."
Yun Sheng seemed to understand, but asked, "Why?"
He Zhen didn't want to say any more, just smiled and shook his head.Yunsheng was afraid that her father would become suspicious, so she didn't dare to ask further questions, so she resigned from her father and went to the inner courtyard alone to find her mother.He Zhen stood where he was, and watched his daughter go away, so he called his confidant Cao Yin and ordered: "Ask someone to keep an eye on Yunsheng and see what she does every day."
Cao Yin took the order to leave, and He Zhen then turned to Baizhang.
Baizhang was the only one in the room, and he was sitting under the lamp playing chess. He raised his eyes and saw He Zhen approaching, smiled, and said, "Looking at you, the outside of the city should be pretty safe."
He Zhen nodded, sat down on the bamboo chair opposite Baizhang, and said, "Yes, Qiu Mulingyue did not attack the city."
Bai Zhang put down the chess record in his hand, and glanced at He Zhen with a smile: "You old fox is the most daring, knowing that Qiu Muling is staring at this place, but still dare to tell the navy to go east. You, the He family, have abandoned Jiangnan, not to mention hiding your strength here, but you still want to stab him in the back, beware of retribution."
He Zhen and Bai Zhang have known each other for more than [-] years, He Zhen has always treated him with courtesy, and Bai Zhang has saved He Zhen's life several times, the relationship between the two is already extremely close, and there is no scruple in their conversation.He Zhen was not angry when he heard this, but said lightly: "Feng Junyang is to save Jiangbei, not to save the He family."
Hearing the words, Bai Zhang chuckled, leaned forward and took a teacup from the tea tray, poured a cup of clear tea for He Zhen, and said, "Try it, this water is the morning dew that I asked someone to harvest."
He Zhen took a sip of the tea and felt that the taste of the tea was indeed a little different from the past, but he couldn't say anything good about it. Seeing that Bai Zhang was still staring at him, he could only agree casually: "Good tea."
Then Bai Zhang smiled.
He Zhen asked again: "Why are you looking for me?"
Bai Zhang lowered his head and collected the pieces on the chessboard leisurely, and said with a smile, "I want to tell you a story."
He Zhen didn't want him to invite him here just to tell a story, so he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What story?"
Bai Zhang raised his eyes to look at him, with a smile on his fat and fat face, he said seriously: "Once upon a time, there was a family of martial arts, who could be regarded as the dominant one in the Jianghu. In this generation, there is a weirdo in the family." , actually felt that the family tradition was too vicious and domineering, so he insisted on going out to learn from a teacher. His father was furious, and uttered cruel words, saying that if he insisted on leaving, he would sever the father-son relationship with this son. But this strange The fetus was so stubborn that he ignored his mother's begging, kowtowed three times to his parents, and then left the house. That year, he was 12 years old."
At this point in the story, He Zhen already heard some clues, and asked, "Then the martial arts family is in Lingnan?"
Bai Zhang laughed softly when he heard it, and said mockingly: "It turns out that General He Zhenhe will remember what he did to his heart. I'll pretend you forgot all about it!"
He Zhen remained calm on the face, but secretly tried to stimulate his inner strength, who knew that the dantian was already empty, unable to gather any true energy.
Bai Zhang glanced at him indifferently: "Just a little bit of Qixiang Ruanjin Powder can make people's muscles and bones sore and lose all their internal strength. General He, don't waste your energy in vain. You'd better listen to me and finish the story with peace of mind." He Still picking up the chess pieces in a leisurely manner, he continued, "That young man changed his name and surname, and he has been away from home for ten years. After leaving the house, but after all, he couldn't bear to leave his blood relatives. He was planning to go home secretly to take a look, but he heard a bad news. The martial arts family offended some powerful people, and they were wiped out. In one night, all 37 members of the family were killed. was killed."
He Zhen heard from Baizhang that the young man had excellent medical skills, so he already guessed that it was Baizhang himself.He remained calm and said in a deep voice: "I have nothing to do with the annihilation of the Shan family in Lingnan. I obtained the skills of the life-threatening sword and the soul-seizing palm by accident. When I learned that they belonged to the Shan family, I specially sent people to Lingnan. I found a son with a single surname and returned it."
"What a despicable and hypocritical General He!" Bai Zhang looked up and laughed, his voice suddenly turned cold, "He Zhen, you coveted the Shan family's unique skills back then, and wanted to ask my Shan family to secretly train killers for you. But my father didn't Yes, you came up with such a poisonous plan. First, you asked someone to destroy my Shan family, robbed the martial arts secret books, and hypocritically adopted the children of the Shan surname, and asked them to work for you. You think you have a well-planned plan, but you don’t know that the Shan family still has me. Such an unworthy person left home early. I searched secretly for several years before I found you, the culprit. In order to get close to you, I ruined my reputation, sacrificed my legs, and endured 20 years of hard work in your He family before I finally came here. one day."
At the beginning, the ghost hand Baizhang was chased and killed by several enemies because of his ruthless behavior.Since then, He Zhen has been raised in the He family, saved his and He Ze's lives several times, and finally gained He Zhen's trust and regarded him as a close friend.But he didn't expect Baizhang to be the son of the Shan family, and all of this came from his design.
He Zhen raised his eyes to look at Bai Zhang, and asked calmly, "If you want to take my life, you don't have to wait until now. You just made a sudden attack today, but there is another reason?"
"Take your life? How can just taking your life be enough to avenge my Shan family!" Bai Zhang sneered, and said, "He Zhen, I won't kill you, I want you to watch this Taixing city collapse and the He family die !"
He Zhen's complexion changed drastically, he stood up with force, and shouted angrily, "Bai Zhang, how dare you!"
Cao Rong, who was waiting outside the courtyard, heard that there was something wrong in the house, and rushed in with his guards. Seeing the situation of He Zhen and Bai Zhang, he obviously turned his face for some reason, and stepped forward to support the crumbling He Zhen called out, "General!"
Without waiting for orders, two people stepped in front of He Zhen to protect each other.The rest of the people drew out their swords one after another and surrounded Baizhang to prevent him from changing.
He Zhen couldn't stand still, grabbed Cao Rong's arm, and only ordered: "Quickly send an order to all the gates of the city, ordering them to close the gates tightly, and take strict precautions. No matter who comes or what kind of warrant they are holding, they are not allowed to open without authorization." City gate. Anyone who is suspicious will be killed without mercy."
Bai Zhang sneered when he heard the words: "It's late, He Zhen, at this moment, Jing Yuxuan may have brought someone to open the city gate!"
He Zhen was shocked when he heard that, Jing Yuxuan had been in and out of Taixing many times in the past six months to find Baizhang to heal his wounds, he had known about this for a long time, and even deliberately recruited him, but because the female devil was too moody, he gave up , I don't want her to be used by Bai Zhang.
A look of madness appeared on Bai Zhang's face, and he said again: "Although Jing Yuxuan is a devil, she is a trustworthy person. I will broaden her meridians, and she will spread the letter between me and Qiu Muling. You are Qiu Muling. Why didn’t Mu Lingyue besiege Taixing recently? Really thought he was afraid of you? He was just waiting for your sailors to go east, waiting for me to find an opportunity to open the city gate for him! Hahahaha..."
He laughed wildly a few times, then stopped abruptly, and sat on the wheelchair with his eyes wide open, without any movement.The guards on the side were all shocked and terrified. One of them carefully went forward to sniff Baizhang, turned around and said to He Zhen in a trembling voice, "Dead, dead."
He Zhen couldn't care about Bai Zhang's life at this moment, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and issued a few orders in a row, and when the guards left in a hurry, Cao Rong carried him back to the main hall of the front yard.Before he could walk out of the courtyard, he heard a sudden scream of killing from the north of the city. He Zhen's feet softened and he almost fell to the ground.
It's over, the city is broken!
Sure enough, not long after, a general came from the North City Gate to report the news. The North City Gate was forcibly opened by a group of men in black with strong martial arts from the inside. The enemy had already been killed into Beicheng by the Beimo people.
The main force of Taixing has already gone east, as long as Qiu Muling opens the city gate, Taixing will be lost.He Zhen's face was livid, his teeth clenched tightly, and it took a while before he recovered from his breath.Several confidants and generals had already arrived upon hearing the news, hearing that Qiu Mulingyue had already entered the city, they all advised He Zhen to abandon the city and flee, and make plans when the navy is transferred back in the future.
He Zhen shook his head slowly, he can't run away, he is He Zhen, he must never abandon Taixing and run away.If he escaped, it would be tantamount to handing over Taixing to Qiu Mulingyue, even if He Ze rushed back with the navy in the future, it would be difficult to take Taixing back.For the current plan, the only way to survive is to fight Qiu Mulingyue to the death in the city to make He Ze come back.
"I can't go, the North City is lost, just go and get it back!" He Zhen stabilized his mind, reassigned the city's defense, assigned those generals, and then ordered his confidant to go to the backyard to find Yunsheng.
After a while, Yun Sheng hurried over with Cao Yin, and when he entered the door, seeing He Zhen's appearance, he couldn't help being shocked, and rushed to his father's knee, asking anxiously, "Daddy, what's wrong?"
He Zhen smiled wryly, and replied: "Qiu Mulingyue has already invaded Beicheng, and Taixing City has been destroyed."
Yun Sheng was stunned when he heard that, his father had just told her that Taixing was fine, how could he be suddenly attacked by Qiu Muling?He Zhen put his hands on his daughter's hair, looked down at her deeply, and said in a deep voice, "Yunsheng, listen, Dad wants to entrust you with something, listen carefully."
Yun Sheng's mind was already in a mess, and he could only nod in panic when he heard the words.
He Zhen said: "You take your mother and younger brother, as well as your twelfth brother's wife and children, out of the city through the secret road, and take refuge with your grandmother in Yunxi."
"What about you? What about you, Daddy?" Yunsheng immediately asked.
He Zhen smiled faintly, and replied, "Daddy needs to stay in Taixing, and wait for Ze'er and your Uncle Mo to bring the navy back."
Upon hearing that He Zhen would not leave, Yun Sheng shouted: "No! I will not leave! I want to stay in Taixing with my father, I—"
He Zhen interrupted his daughter: "Yunsheng, listen to Daddy."
Hearing the words, Yun Sheng just shook his head stubbornly, with tears in his almond eyes, and said: "No, I won't listen! If you want to leave, everyone will leave, or if you don't leave, no one will leave. We are a family, we must Inseparable, life and death are together."
Her words were obviously childish nonsense, but He Zhen smiled when he heard them, even his already cold heart didn't feel a little hot.He supported his daughter's head with both hands, stared into her eyes, and said word by word: "Yunsheng, do you want to watch your mother and younger brother die under the swords of Beimo people? Be obedient and take them with you." Go, protect them well, Daddy believes that you can do it, you are no worse than Chen Nian at all."
Yun Sheng met his father's gaze, his face became firmer, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll take them away."
There were already trusted guards waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw Yun Sheng coming out of the hall, they immediately followed.After walking a few steps, Yunsheng couldn't help but stop again, turned around and glanced at his father sitting in the chair, then turned around resolutely, and walked quickly towards the backyard.
On May [-]th, the city of Taixing was broken, and Qiu Mulingyue, the left general of the Xian clan, led his army into the city.He Zhen defended Taixing to the core, and the defenders competed desperately with Beimo soldiers and horses in the city. The casualties were exhausted. That's why the Beimo people captured the Taixing city guard mansion.
Qiu Muling jumped off his horse, stood under the stone steps, and looked up at the open gate of the city guard's mansion.
In the second year of Yongping, he walked out from here with A Yuan on his back. At that time, behind him was the flames that soared into the sky, and in front of him were inexhaustible evil spirits. A Yuan brought out the door.From then on, there was no heart in his chest, only one thought was left, he wanted to avenge A Yuan, he wanted to kill back, enter through the main gate, and kill no one in the He family.
After 23 years, he finally stood here again.But A Yuan, where have you been?You might come back and take another look at me?Watch me follow the road you walked that day, step by step into the He family, kill the heartless people who betrayed you, kill those He family members who murdered you, and use their blood to pay homage to your undead.
A Yuan, you stay by my side, stay with me, okay?
As the sun set in the west, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Qiu Mu Lingyue's armor. It was clearly an extremely warm color, but it shone with an icy light, chilling the surrounding air.Qiu Muling slowly picked up the long knife in his hand, pursed his thin lips tightly, and walked towards the door step by step with murderous intent on his upright and resolute face.
In the main courtyard, He Zhen was neatly dressed in armor, leaning on a pillar with a long sword in his hand, waiting for Qiu Muling to approach him step by step.There are not many guards left in the courtyard, and those who can stay here at this moment are all He Zhen's dead soldiers.Although they were overwhelmed by Qiu Mulingyue's bravery, they still rushed forward regardless of life and death, trying to stop Qiu Mulingyue's advance.
Qiu Muling became more expressionless, and slashed all the way with a long knife in his hand. He didn't stop until he knocked the last person to the ground, and then looked up at He Zhen who was in the corridor coldly.
There was no look of fear on He Zhen's face, but instead he smiled faintly at Qiu Muling, and said, "Qiu Mulingyue, I haven't seen you for many years."
The more Qiu Muling had no intention of reminiscing with He Zhen, he just said in a cold voice, "Draw your sword."
He Zhen was poisoned by a strange poison, and his martial arts were useless. Hearing the words, he shook his head slowly and said, "It's not necessary. If you want to kill me, just do it. But before that, I just want to know one thing. What did you say before you died?"
Qiu Mu Lingyue's eyes seemed to be frozen, and he exuded a cold air: "You don't deserve to know."
While speaking, other soldiers brought many crying, struggling men, women, old and children into the hospital. A guard of the Xian family came forward and reported: "General, all members of the He clan are here, only the wives and children of He Zhen and He Ze are here. Can't find it."
Qiu Muling glanced at He Zhen more and more, and said in a deep voice: "Divide into two groups of men and horses to chase, one way goes east along the Wanjiang River, and the other way crosses the river to Yunxi."
The guard led the way.
He Zhen looked indifferently at those members of the He clan who were crying for help, smiled mockingly at Qiu Muling, and said, "The people who killed A Yuan back then, except for me, the chief culprit, have all passed away. It is useless to kill all these people."
Qiu Muling was already taciturn, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with the man in front of him at this moment.He only looked back at the men and women who were kneeling on the ground crying, turned his head and continued to look at He Zhen, and said ruthlessly, "Kill."
After uttering one word, the scimitars in the hands of the soldiers over there will fall one by one, regardless of whether it is male or female, old or young, they will kill them all.There was a river of blood flowing in the courtyard for a while, which was horrible.
Although He Zhen's face didn't change, the veins in his hands holding the sword hilt were bulging, revealing his true inner emotions.After a while, the cries in the courtyard gradually faded away, and when the head of the last person was cut off with a machete, the screams stopped abruptly.He Zhen slowly closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, but suddenly he raised his head and burst out laughing.
Qiu Muling stood there motionless, only looking at He Zhen coldly.
He Zhen laughed for a long time before he stopped, but the corners of his eyes were already a little wet, and he asked, "Qiu Mulingyue, do you think this is how you killed the He family? No, you can't kill the He family, you will never kill them." I can't kill them all. Even if everyone is dead, there is still Chennian, and the Chennian that you raised. She is the daughter born to me by A Yuan, and the blood of my He family is flowing on her body."
He Zhen's eyes turned blood red at some point. He stared at Qiu Mulingyue and said word by word: "Chen Nian is the daughter of A Yuan and I, the daughter born of the fusion of flesh and blood between me and A Yuan." .She was in Jizhou, and killed 10 horses from your Xian family's Helan tribe. She is the daughter of my He family!"
Qiu Muling pursed his lips more and remained silent, he just stepped forward and stabbed He Zhen's chest with a knife.
Blood was bleeding from the corner of He Zhen's mouth, but with a smile on his face, he leaned into Qiu Mu Lingyue's ear and said intermittently: "Do you think that she is yours when she dies by your side? You are wrong, she has always been It's not yours. Her person and her heart are only me from the beginning to the end. Whether it's love or hate, it's just me, and it has nothing to do with you, Qiu Muling."
Qiu Mu Lingyue didn't have the anger that He Zhen expected, only deep contempt and disdain in his eyes: "She said she regretted it."
He Zhen froze all over.
Qiu Muling withdrew the knife and said, "Ah Yuan's last words, she said, she regretted it."
He Zhen's expression was a little dull, thinking about what A Yuan regretted?Did you meet him, or did you marry him?Or did he regret believing that he would protect her well, but ended up killing her?
Blood foam kept pouring out of He Zhen's mouth, making it more and more difficult for him to breathe.He Zhen's vision gradually blurred, and the surrounding voices gradually faded away.The world slowly sank into darkness, but suddenly brightened again. He seemed to be back on the ferry again, with her at the bow and he at the stern.Jiang Feng blew up a corner of her curtain, revealing a touch of delicate whiteness inside.Although it was just a glimpse, it made his heart beat like a drum.He pretended to be calm, held the long sword in his arms, and walked towards her step by step in the eyes of everyone.
The reeds are green, and the white dew is frost.The so-called Iraqis are on the water side.Backtracking from it, the road is long and obstructive.Traveling back from it, Wan is in the middle of the water...
A Yuan, do you know?I also regret it, I thought, I can hurry back.
On May [-]th, He Zhen died in the Taixing City Shoufu.Qiu Muling Yue ordered his men to chop off his head and hang it on the top of the city. At the same time, he sent troops for seven days and let the Beimo soldiers burn, kill and plunder him as a reward.So far, Taixing has completely fallen.At this time, the Taixing navy had not yet received the news that Qiu Muling had invaded the city.
Taixing City, the largest city in Jiangbei, is also the most important town in Jiangbei. It was once said: if Taixing is lost, the natural danger of Wanjiang River will not be enough.During the Shengyuan period, Zhou Zhiren, a famous general of Beimo, led hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege Taixing for two years. Taixing was still impenetrable, but this time Qiu Mulingyue only used [-] Beimo miscellaneous troops. Captured Taixing City.
Taixing lost so quickly, the world was shocked.
After Qiu Muling captured Taixing, the first thing he did was to send a message to Bu Liuguxiao in Yuzhou on his flying horse that all the people in the desert of Daobei came for money.If Taixing is to be stable, another elite soldier must come to defend the city.
When Bu Liuguxiao received the news, he made a decisive decision, leaving 4 troops to guard Yuzhou, and taking the rest of the troops to Taixing.At the same time, Feng Junyang's army did not know that Taixing had changed hands, and had just set off from Ningquan and headed for Yuzhou.On the other hand, Zheng Lun's army, who rushed to Taixing for rescue, had just marched halfway, and was still thousands of miles away from Taixing.
And Chen Nian is still in the Taihang Mountains at this moment.
In addition to Chaoyangzi and Xiaobao, there is another resident in Mrs. Yang's small courtyard, but it is Chaoyangzi's younger brother, Mr. Qiao.
At first, it was because Feng Junyang suspected that the "Master Xie" in the rebel army was Chen Nian himself, so he ordered Qiao Lao to come to check.After sending the news back, Feng Junyang learned that Chen Nian really came out of the mountain, and his daughter Xiaobao was only taken care of by Chaoyangzi, so he sent Qiao Lao back to protect Xiaobao.
Based on Chaoyangzi's dislike for Feng Junyang, if Feng Junyang sent someone else, Chaoyangzi would try every means to drive them away, but this person who came was his junior, poisonous, poisonous, beating, beating .Even though Chaoyangzi was reluctant in every possible way, he could only ask Mr. Qiao to stay.
Chaoyangzi was only worried about how to explain to Chennian. He didn't want Chennian to come back to see Mr. Qiao, but he didn't react too much. Instead, he treated Mr. Qiao very politely.Chaoyangzi looked at it strangely, and couldn't help but secretly asked Chen Nian, "You and Feng Junyang are reconciled?"
Chen Nian was coaxing Xiaobao to play, and upon hearing the words, he just replied casually: "Qiao always comes to protect Xiaobao, I must treat him politely, what does it have to do with Feng Junyang?"
Chao Yangzi blinked his bean eyes, and said emphatically, "He was sent by Feng Junyang."
Chen Nian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter who sent it, as long as it is for Xiao Bao's good, I am grateful."
Chaoyangzi was speechless, rolled his eyes at Chennian, and saw Chennian coaxing Xiaobao with a pastry, he couldn't help but said: "It's time to eat, you give her such a big snack, why don't you call her?" Have a meal?"
Chen Nian had just given the pastries to Xiaobao, and he felt a little regretful after hearing this, so he discussed with Xiaobao in a good voice: "My dear little treasure, give the pastry to mother first, and let's eat this after dinner, okay?" it is good?"
Children are the most protective food. How can you return what you got?It's good that Chen Nian didn't say this, but when he said this, Xiao Bao twisted his small body, avoided his mother left and right, and shouted inarticulately: "No, no."
Chen Nian couldn't coax his daughter back, so he felt helpless for a while.Chaoyangzi was on the side laughing, obviously wanting to watch a play.Chen Nian glanced at him lightly, then turned back to look at Xiao Bao, saw her small hands holding the piece of cake tightly, he bent his lips and smiled, and suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted: "Look, Xiao Bao! There are tits! "
After all, Xiaobao was still young, so he immediately fell for the trick, and raised his head to look for the tit in the sky.Chen Nian hurriedly leaned over and quickly took a big bite of the dim sum in Xiao Bao's hand.Xiao Bao looked up and couldn't find the tit, just about to lower his head, Chen Nian pointed to the sky on the other side and shouted: "Over there!"
So, Xiaobao hurriedly turned around to look for it.Taking advantage of this time, Chen Nian took another bite from the pastry.Chaoyangzi didn't want Chen Nian to be so shameless, he stared at him dumbfounded, with his mouth half-opened and speechless.Xiao Bao raised his head and looked around, but couldn't see any tits, so he couldn't help but turned his head and looked at his mother in confusion.
At this time, Chen Nian had swallowed the snacks in his mouth, and said innocently: "Oh, the tits have all flown away."
Little Treasure seemed to understand, put down the tit, and then remembered the snack in his hand. When he saw that there was not much snack left in his hand, he was startled for a moment, then his little mouth twitched aggrievedly, and immediately raised his face and let out a loud voice burst into tears.
Chen Nian hurriedly picked up Xiaobao, turned around and pointed at Chaoyangzi who was still squatting stupidly on the ground, and sternly accused him: "Bad Daoist, grab our Xiaobao's snacks, it's really bad!"
When Xiao Bao heard this, he was naturally even more wronged and cried louder.
Chaoyangzi was about to vomit blood, and watched Chennian coax Xiaobao to leave, then realized, pointing at the backs of Chennian mother and daughter, shouted angrily: "This girl, this bad girl!"
At dinner, a few people ate around the small table, Xiaobao still remembered Chaoyangzi's grudge against her for grabbing her snacks, and refused to pay any attention to him.Mr. Qiao and Mrs. Yang didn't know what happened, they both had strange expressions on their faces, Mr. Qiao couldn't help but asked Chaoyangzi, "Brother, why did you provoke Xiaobao?"
Chaoyangzi glared at Chen Nian bitterly when he heard the words, and replied angrily: "It's not the Daoist who provoked it. The Daoist was framed! Someone played tricks on a child who was less than two years old. And he blamed others, and made Daoist a villain."
Don't say that Mrs. Yang can't understand these words, even Mr. Qiao is getting more and more confused.
Chennian pursed his lips and smiled, lowered his head and whispered a few words in his daughter's ear, and he didn't know what he said. Xiaobao refused at first, then stood up from the low stool, clenched his little hands Handing the deformed dough cake to Chaoyangzi, he yelled inarticulately, "Daodao, eat."
Little Treasure was already very good-looking, tender and tender, white and fat, with pink makeup and jade-like polish, and when he talked to Chaoyangzi in such a childlike voice, Chaoyangzi's whole heart seemed to melt, and he hurriedly took Xiaobao into the room. In his arms, while eating the noodle cake, he said generously to Chen Nian: "For Xiaobao's sake, I won't argue with you, Daoist."
Chen Nian blinked and said, "Thank you, Daoist."
Chaoyangzi just wanted to snort, but suddenly remembered Xiaobao in his arms, and quickly suppressed the cold snort, ignoring Chen Nian's answer, just coaxing Xiaobao to talk with a smile on his face.
It was late in the mountains, and after everyone had dinner, the sky was already dark.Xiaobao had been playing with Chennian for a long time, and he was already sleepy and tired. Mrs. Yang wanted to take Xiaobao back to the house to sleep, but she didn't want Xiaobao to cling to Chennian and refused to let go.Seeing this, Chen Nian couldn't bear it, so he said, "Ma'am, I'll take her in later, and sleep with me at night."
Mrs. Yang returned to the room with the lamp, but before leaving, she sighed, turned around and said to Chen Nian: "Don't tell her to fall in love with you like this, or if you leave in two days, the child will inevitably cry again, even more so." suffer."
After saying this, the rest of the people at the table fell silent.Chen Nian lowered his head, stared blankly at Xiao Bao, and went to Yang Zi for a moment of silence, but suddenly said: "Why don't you take Xiao Bao with you! Qiao Yu and I are protecting you. With you, nothing will happen."
"No." Chen Nian flatly refused, she raised her eyes to Chaoyang Zi, and said coldly, "That's a battlefield, swords have no eyes."
Chaoyangzi also felt that what he said just now was ill-considered. Hearing what Chen Nian said, instead of staring at him to refute, he lowered his head apologetically.
Seeing him like this, Chen Nian explained again: "Master Daoist, I have no other intentions."
Chaoyangzi said in a muffled voice, "I know."
Because it was Chaoyangzi who hijacked Xiaobao, Chennian was forced to go out with him and get involved in the chaos of the war. For this reason, Chaoyangzi always felt guilty towards Chennian's mother and daughter.Chen Nian also knew his mentality. After thinking about it, he explained to him: "The west side is different from Jizhou. Hundreds of thousands of troops gather together. It's not enough to just point out cleverness. You have to have real skills. There are so many famous generals. From marching to fighting, everyone is better than me. I just go to have a look first, and if I don’t need me, I will come back.”
She spoke easily, but both Chaoyangzi and Qiao Lao knew that things were by no means so simple.The more Feng Junyang and Qiu Muling confront each other, no matter who wins and who loses, who is killed or injured, it will be a heartache for Chen Nian.
All of a sudden, Chaoyangzi felt regretful, regretting that he shouldn't use the word "great righteousness" to press Chen Nian.What does the common people in the world have to do with her?Even if she grew up eating a lot of food, she still survived those tens of thousands of refugees, and it was enough to return them back!Why should she be forced to carry this "righteousness" alone!
The more Chaoyangzi thought about it, the more he hated himself, couldn't help raising his hand and slapped himself several times, cursing: "I'm an old man who picks persimmons and bullies honest people, why don't I persuade that Does Tuoba Yao feel sorry for the common people in the world?"
Chen Nian and Qiao Lao looked dumbfounded, but it was Chen Nian who came to his senses first, quickly reached out his hand to stop Chao Yangzi, and shouted in a low voice: "Master Daoist! What are you doing?"
Chaoyangzi hit him hard, just for a moment, the cheek on that side was already swollen, he gritted his teeth and said, "No, don't go to Taixing, stay here and take Xiaobao with peace of mind."
Chen Nian knew his intentions and was moved, but said in a deep voice: "Master Dao, I have to go. Not only for righteousness, but also for personal reasons." She lowered her head to look at Xiao Bao who was sleeping soundly in her arms, He raised his head to look at Chaoyangzi again, and forced a smile at him with the corners of his mouth pulled, "Master Daoist, you and Mr. Qiao must take care of Xiaobao for me, and wait for me to come back."
Two days later, while Xiaobao was sleeping, Chen Nian bid farewell to Chaoyangzi, Qiao Lao and others, and rode out of South Taihang to the west one by one, chasing Zheng Lun's army that had already rushed to Taixing.Her speed was much faster than the army's march, but she caught up in just a few days. She didn't want to see Zheng Lun, but she saw Shunping first.
Chen Nian was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the big flag erected in front of the tent, seeing that it was indeed Zheng Lun's handsome flag, he finally settled down.
Shunping just came out of the tent, when he looked up to see Chen Nian, he was both surprised and happy, and said: "Finally, I've waited for you, I thought I'd miss you."
He arrived earlier than Chen Nian, seeing that Chen Nian was not in the army, he thought of continuing to go east to stop her, but because he was afraid of getting lost with Chen Nian, he had to wait for her in Zheng Lun's army.After waiting for these few days, and finally waiting for Chen Nian, Shunping suddenly felt relieved.
Chen Nian nodded slightly, without asking why Shunping appeared here, passed him and went straight to the big tent, asking the guards outside to inform her.
Zheng Lun was the only person in the big tent, and when he looked up to see Chen Nian coming in, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.He already knew from Shunping the reason why Chennian broke up with Feng Junyang, and also knew that Chennian gave birth to a daughter for Feng Junyang.Junpei told him these things, just to let him get rid of those thoughts that he shouldn't have.But for some reason, instead of dissipating his thoughts, he became more eager to move.
Now that she has broken with the prince, can she continue to be Xie Chennian?Thinking of this, Zheng Lun couldn't stop feeling hot in his heart, but when he saw Chen Nian's slightly cold face, his heart sank slowly.She didn't know what he was thinking, she even thought he had always loved Yunsheng.
He was thinking wildly, but Chen Nian had already explained to him: "I have some private matters to do, I didn't think it would take so many days, luckily I caught up with you in time."
Zheng Lun said nothing, just nodded with a sullen face.
Chen Nianhui misunderstood what he meant, smiled lightly, and said again: "General Zheng, don't blame him, it's because he was in a hurry and didn't care to come and say hello to you."
Zheng Lun guessed that she must be visiting her daughter when she left suddenly. Seeing that she refused to tell him even a word of the truth, she was inevitably a little disappointed, and lowered her head to hide the wry smile on her lips. "It's okay." He paused, then asked again, "Did you see Junpei outside just now?"
Chen Nian said: "I see, I just said a few words."
Zheng Lun raised his eyes and took a deep look at her. He didn't think of other excuses to stop Chen Nian as Shun Ping asked, but said bluntly: "He came to deliver a message for the lord, and the lord doesn't want you to go." Taixing."
Seeing Shunping outside the tent just now, Chen Nian guessed that he must be here to work for Feng Junyang, but he didn't want to just spread the word.Zheng Lun glanced at Chen Nian's expression, saw that she was a little dazed, and added: "My lord is afraid that you will be in a dilemma."
Chen Nian came back to his senses and asked Zheng Lun, "If you were me, would you stay out of the matter and turn around because you were afraid of being in a dilemma?"
Zheng Lun thought for a while and replied, "No."
A slight smile appeared on Chen Nian's lips, and he said: "I won't either. I know he has good intentions, but this matter cannot allow me to escape. No matter what the result is, I will always do my best. Waiting for someone to tell me the result."
Zheng Lun looked at her intently, and after a while, he replied in a deep voice, "Okay."
As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes outside the tent, the two people in the tent had very good ears, they could hear the rapid sound of horseshoes coming from the west, and their expressions changed slightly.
