clang!
clang!
clang!
Knives come and guns go, and guns go and swords greet each other.
Gao Biaoren was well versed in the exquisite marksmanship inherited from his family, and he broke through the enemy's siege in just a few rounds.
but.
Although he is powerful.
Two fists can't beat four hands.
In desperation.
Gao Biaoren could only retreat step by step, and finally crashed into the streets of the city.
"Where to go!"
Seeing that Gao Biaoren was about to escape, Yuwen Chenglong immediately took a step forward and swung the eyebrow-level stick in his palm, directly towards the back of Gao Biaoren's head.
clang!
I felt a sudden bad wind coming from behind.
Gao Biaoren didn't look back and shot out with his backhand.
moment.
Two weapons clashed.
Yuwen Chenglong was so shocked that he took a dozen steps back. Finally, his legs weakened and he sat on the ground.
Seeing this, other soldiers came over to check on Yuwen Chenglong.
And just take advantage of this opportunity.
Gao Biaoren dragged his gun away, swerving and hiding in the street.
He walked quickly along the streets he knew well.
Gao Biaoren returned to his home near the residence of Duke Qi.
unexpectedly.
Outside the gate of the Duke's Mansion of Qi.
Already surrounded by hundreds of soldiers.
The newly promoted Zhuguo general Wang Shiji was leading his troops in and out of the palace.
"Yu Wen moved so fast! I wonder how my father's safety is in Prince Jin's Mansion?"
Gao Biaoren hid behind a wall, thinking secretly in his heart.
"Brother Wang! Why are you here?"
At this time.
A big hand patted Gao Biaoren's shoulder.
at the same time.
A voice also sounded from my ears.
Hear this.
Gao Biaoren was shocked.
He turned around suddenly and looked at the person behind him.
But I saw that this man was stout, wearing coarse linen clothes, and his eyes were shining.
"Who are you?"
Gao Biaoren asked in a low voice.
"This is not the place to talk. Brother Wang, come with me!"
The man didn't answer, but grabbed Gao Biaoren's wrist, pulled Gao Biaoren gently, and pulled Gao Biaoren to the small carriage next to him.
"I'm not……"
Gao Biaoren was about to struggle, but unexpectedly, the man's hand was so strong that he dragged Gao Biaoren onto the carriage.
"who are you?"
Gao Biaoren got into the carriage with a gloomy expression.
"The little Wu Bao is a general under King Zhongxiao!"
The man slightly cupped his hands and said.
"King Zhongxiao?"
Gao Biaoren was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly relaxed a little.
King Zhongxiao is Wu Jianzhang.
I think back then, when Yang Jian had not yet proclaimed himself emperor.
Gao Jiong was persecuted by Gao Wei at a young age and defected to the Northern Zhou Dynasty in anger.
Gao Wei was angry and sent several troops to chase Gao Jiong.
Starting from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it was Wu Jianzhang who was responsible for supporting Gao Jiong.
The two men were in the enemy's formation at that time, each armed with a long gun and fought seven in and seven out, defeating the Northern Qi soldiers and horses, thus establishing a deep friendship.
therefore.
When Gao Biaoren heard that the person who came was none other than a general under King Zhongxiao.
He quickly raised his hands in salute and said, "I wonder what the general is here for?"
Wu Bao said: "Young Master, the eldest and second young masters of the Qin family have successfully left the city. Now the Yuwen family is searching for your whereabouts all over the city. They don't want you to confront the prince of Jin in the palace, so my master will send a young general to pick up the young master. When the time comes, When the limelight is over, let the young master go directly to Renshou Palace to meet the emperor and explain the reasons."
Hearing this, Gao Biaoren nodded slightly and said, "King Zhongxiao thought carefully, I understand."
Subsequently.
Wu Bao then drove the carriage, quietly avoiding the soldiers of the Yuwen family in front of the Duke of Qi's palace, and went straight to the palace of Prince Zhongxiao.
It didn't take long.
The car stopped steadily at the gate of Prince Zhongxiao's Mansion.
Gao Biaoren followed Wu Bao into the palace, met with Wu Jianzhang, and talked about Gao Jiong being called into the Jin palace.
"Uncle, since Yuwen Zhiji is afraid that I will confront him, why not let me go directly to Prince Jin's Mansion and explain the reason in front of Prince Jin?"
Gao Biaoren asked Wu Jianzhang.
"You think things are too simple... If you don't show up for a day, the Yuwen family will take care of your Gao family... Your father is more talented and can mediate, but you are only here Live in the mansion, and after the Lantern Festival in one month, I will send you to the Renshou Palace. By then, I will naturally clear up your misunderstanding about Mr. Gao."
Wu Jianzhang stroked his beard and said slowly.
"I see...my nephew is here. Thank you uncle for your help!"
After hearing this, Gao Biaoren immediately fell to his knees and kowtowed.
"Get up! I'll rest here today. I'll ask Wu Bao to go to Jin Prince's Mansion to find out information. If there is any information, I'll come back and report it immediately."
Wu Jianzhang said.
Gao Biaoren nodded and lived in Prince Zhongxiao's Mansion from then on.
really.
It was late afternoon.
Wu Bao returned to Prince Zhongxiao's Mansion.
He reported to Wu Jianzhang and Gao Biaoren: "Today, the Duke of Qi was planning to confront Puyang County Duke. Fortunately, King Changping persuaded him, and this trivial matter was easily dismissed... However, later Yuwen Chenglong came to report and said that Biaoren Master Ren, armed with a sharp knife, ran rampant through the streets and wounded the soldiers guarding the gate... The King of Jin was furious when he heard this, and immediately sent Ma Shumou, the admiral of the capital, to lead troops to search the whole city... Now, five or six hundred people have been deployed at the entrance of the Duke of Qi's residence. Man, Mr. Gao is under house arrest and has nothing to do!"
"Yu Wen's deception goes too far! Why does His Highness the King of Jin only listen to one side of the story?"
When Gao Biaoren heard this, he was so angry that he was about to take the gun and leave to live with his father.
"Don't get confused! At this time, they are trying to make you confused and seize the flaw!"
Wu Jianzhang waved his hand and said to Gao Biaoren.
"Uncle, what should I do now?"
Gao Biaoren looked at Wu Jianzhang and asked.
"Wait! As long as you wait until the New Year's Eve Festival, you will have a way to leave the city!"
Wu Jianzhang stood with his hands behind his back and said slowly.
Lantern Festival.
It was the day when Wu Yun, Marquis of Nanyang, called him back to visit his relatives.
By the time.
Gao Biaoren mingled among Wu Yunzhao's soldiers and was able to leave Daxing City easily.
…
Northern Territory.
Youzhou.
Dingbeihou Mansion.
The gusts of wind blew away the flying snow in the sky.
Wang Ke, Xu Maogong, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and Wang Junke were sitting in the Nuan Pavilion.
Next to it, there are women with red whisks carrying charcoal to cook wine and mixing incense with bare hands.
"How will the people in Jizhou, Pingzhou, and Yunzhou survive this kind of weather?"
I drank a glass of hot wine made by the red whisk girl.
Wang Ke looked at everyone and asked casually.
"Thanks to my lord Hongfu, the harvest in Jizhou City is good this year. We have also exchanged a lot of fur goods with the Turks, and the people are living well."
Wang Junke said with a smile.
"The same is true for the people in Pingzhou and Yunzhou... A few days ago, General Su Dingfang and General Song Jingang sent letters, saying that the people had hunted a lot of treasures in the mountains, and they followed the Shi brothers' trade route and exchanged a lot of winter supplies. …Many young men thanked the lord for his kindness and joined the army one after another. Those two big cities have already accumulated 14,500 soldiers and horses!"
Wait until Wang Junke finishes speaking.
Xu Maogong smiled slightly and said to Wang Ke.
"Hahahaha! It's hard for them not to come to Youzhou for reunion this year...Tomorrow, I will send Tianyou to deliver some fine wine, cattle and sheep to reward the soldiers of Pingzhou and Yunzhou!"
After listening to Xu Maogong's words.
Wang Ke laughed loudly, picked up another glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Lord!"
At this moment.
Wang Tianyou walked in quickly outside the door.
"What's the matter?"
Wang Ke turned his head and asked.
"An imperial envoy has arrived from Daxing! He has already rested at the hotel outside the city."
Wang Tianyou handed over his hand to report.
