After the city gate was opened, dozens of defenders in the corridor knelt down and saluted Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi sighed softly, got off the horse, and helped one of them up himself.

"Get up and talk."

After all the soldiers stood up, Cheng Yi asked again.

"What the hell happened?"

"General," a soldier stepped forward, crying, "A month ago, the Goguryeo people suddenly sent troops to camp the city. In the past month, the Goguryeo people have attacked the city six times."

Hearing this, Cheng Yi frowned suddenly.

He hadn't thought that Goguryeo would really have the guts to attack Yingzhou City.

After all, the gate of the city was not a place to talk, Cheng Yi interrupted the soldier, and ordered the Shence Army to set up camp outside the city, and then went into the city with the defenders inside the city.

At this time, the people of Yingzhou City who heard that the Shence Army had come opened their homes and took to the streets.

After they really saw Cheng Yi, they were all overjoyed.

"General Cheng!!!"

"As expected, General Cheng is here!!!"

"Yingzhou is finally saved!!!"

Following the cheers of the common people, Cheng Yi and the defenders in the city went to the Governor's Mansion.

"Why is there no one on the city gate?"

While walking on the road, Cheng Yi suddenly asked.

The soldier who spoke earlier said with a bitter face: "The general doesn't know something. After Goguryeo's several palaces, there are not many defenders left in Yingzhou City."

Hearing this, Cheng Yi carefully sized up the soldiers following him.

Seeing his disheveled face and bloodshot eyes, he understood immediately.

"go on."

Cheng Yi motioned.

The soldier nodded immediately, and continued: "Yesterday, the Goguryeo people launched the sixth Miyagi against Yingzhou City. The little ones resisted desperately, and finally defended Yingzhou City, but..."

While speaking, the soldier's bloodshot eyes, which were already dissatisfied with blood, suddenly became even redder.

"But what?"

Cheng Yi asked a question along the way.

"Lord Inspector takes the lead, and finally, finally..."

The soldier couldn't help but burst into tears, and didn't finish his sentence.

However, Cheng Yi already understood what he meant.

At this moment, the Governor's Mansion, which was all white, appeared in front of Cheng Yi.

"Go in and have a look."

Cheng Yi stopped and patted the soldier's shoulder, and immediately walked towards the direction of the governor's mansion.

The governor's mansion was already covered with white flags, and a coffin was placed in the courtyard.

In the not-so-big front yard, perhaps because there were too many people who came to mourn and offer incense, it still looked smoky.

"you are……"

Seeing Cheng Yi coming in, the steward of the Governor's Mansion hurriedly greeted him.

It's just that he had never seen Cheng Yi in Yingzhou City before, and he didn't recognize Cheng Yi for a while.

"Butler Wang, this is General Cheng."

The soldier before immediately stepped forward to introduce him.

"General Cheng...?"

Hearing the soldier's words, Steward Wang didn't realize it at first, but he understood it almost in the blink of an eye.

"General Cheng?!"

Looking at the shocked Wang Steward, Cheng Yi nodded slightly.

"I'm going to offer a stick of incense."

Cheng Yi said.

Wang Guan hurriedly nodded his head and got out of the way.

After coming out of the Governor's Mansion, Cheng Yi went straight out of the city and went back to the Shence Army camp.

Chapter 64 An Enemy Attacks!

It was night, Li Feng, Shen Zihe, Qin Shandao and others gathered in the main tent.

The current situation in Yingzhou City is not good. There are not many defenders left in the city, and the food is probably already in jeopardy.

Although I don't know why Goguryeo suddenly attacked Yingzhou City.

However, if they hadn't come in time, I am afraid that the predicament faced by the people of Yingzhou and the defenders would not just be the siege of the Goguryeo people.

"My lord, this subordinate feels that there is something very strange."

After everyone was seated, Shen Zihe spoke first.

Hearing this, Cheng Yi set his eyes on Shen Zihe.

"whats the matter?"

Cheng Yi asked.

Shen Zihe frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "According to common sense, Liaozhou City is a town closer to Goguryeo than Yingzhou City. Why did the Goguryeo people leave Liaozhou City unmoved? Do you have to go far and come to Yingzhou City?"

In fact, Cheng Yi had doubts about the matter Shen Zihe asked about.

"Did the people you sent to Yingzhou City find out anything?"

Cheng Yi didn't answer Shen Zihe's question, but asked another question instead.

Shen Zihe took a deep breath and said, "This is exactly what this subordinate wants to tell your lord."

Cheng Yi nodded, motioning for Shen Zihe to continue talking.

"According to the investigation, the Inspector of Yingzhou ordered someone to send a letter to the Inspector of Liaozhou when he first saw the clues of Goguryeo's conspiracy with the Japanese state. But for some reason, the Inspector of Liaozhou never replied to the letter."

Shen Zihe looked at Cheng Yi and said.

"Later, the Inspector of Yingzhou sent several letters to the Inspector of Liaozhou intermittently. At first, there was nothing abnormal, but later, all the letters failed to enter Liaocheng Prefecture without exception."

Hearing Shen Zihe's words, Cheng Yi frowned.

"The governor of Liaozhou..."

If Cheng Yi guessed correctly, the most strange thing in this whole thing was the governor of Liaozhou.

"Do any of you know the details of Liaozhou governor?"

Cheng Yi asked suddenly.

There was a moment of silence in the tent, and just when Cheng Yi thought he would not get a response, Chang Sun Chong suddenly spoke.

"General, before we set off, my subordinate's father mentioned the governor of Liaozhou to his subordinates."

Hearing this, everyone in the tent turned their attention to Chang Sun Chong.

Suddenly getting everyone's attention, Chang Sun Chong rolled down his Adam's apple nervously.

"Father doesn't know much about the governor of Liaozhou, but he still told a rumor he had heard."

"What rumor?"

Cheng Yi asked.

Changsun Chong took a deep breath and continued: "Father said that as early as when the governor of Liaozhou was still an official in Chang'an City, someone who was at odds with him had investigated his details."

Everyone quietly listened to Chang Sun Chong's words.

"But those people searched and searched, but they couldn't find anything important. Just when those people were about to give up, a rumor suddenly popped up in Chang'an City, saying that the father of the governor of Liaozhou was actually a Goguryeo man. .”

"Goguryeo?"

Cheng Yi frowned even tighter.

Chang Sun Chong nodded, and said again: "It is said that the person who spread the news was his mother. It seems that after he was born, his father abandoned his biological mother and brought him back to Goguryeo."

"Since he brought Goguryeo back, why did he appear in Datang again?"

Cheng Chusi couldn't help asking a question.

Changsun Chong sighed and shook his head. Even Changsun Wuji didn't know the truth of this matter.

"Has anyone checked the identity of his father?"

Cheng Yi asked again.

Chang Sun Chong nodded first, and then shook his head: "Someone did think about it at the beginning, but every time someone wants to find out about his father, all kinds of accidents will happen."

"All sorts of accidents?"

Cheng Yi asked suspiciously.

"Some of them were suddenly found guilty and were either beheaded or exiled. Some were killed suddenly. After a long time, no one would investigate him anymore."

Changsun Wuji looked at Cheng Yi and said these words.

"The more you can't find out, the more strange it will be."

Qin Shandao said suddenly.

Cheng Yi rubbed his chin, and suddenly let out a chuckle.

"It seems that the life experience of the governor of Liaozhou may really be very interesting."

"My lord wants to check?"
