The man who wielded the stick had kinked muscles and a fierce momentum. A cooked copper stick rolled like thunder, sending all the soldiers in front of him flying out. In an instant, he was in front of Yuwen Chengdu.
At this moment.
Yuwen Chengdu happened to rein in his own horse, but unexpectedly the man with the stick had already bullied him behind him, and struck Yuwen Chengdu hard on the back of his head.
but.
It happened that the war horse moved, and the stick hit empty.
However, the force of the stick did not diminish and it hit the ground hard, smashing several green bricks into pieces.
Until then.
Only then did Yuwen Chengdu look at the sneak attacker.
turn out to be.
This person is no one else.
It was none other than the warrior who was selling bows on the long street—Purple Faced King Xiongkuo Hai.
It is said that Xiong Kuohai gave the long bow to Yuwen Chengdu and left the place in large strides.
unexpectedly.
He just walked downstairs to the hero.
But they heard that Qin Qiong and others killed Yuwen Zhiji.
And Yuwen Chengdu is currently chasing Qin Qiong and others all over the city.
After hearing about this.
The vast sea dare not neglect.
He immediately rushed back to the inn, took his weapon, and then returned to the city. After searching everywhere, he finally found traces of everyone outside a dead end.
I saw Yuwen Chengdu at the bottom of the Yong Road, facing the alley, as if he was confronting someone.
Xiong Kuohai immediately stepped forward, rushed away the iron cavalry horses behind him, and headed straight for Yuwen Chengdu.
pity.
Although this stick came from behind and hit Yuwen Chengdu on the back of the head.
But Yuwen Chengdu's horse staggered and avoided the blow, and Yuwen Chengdu was able to survive.
At this time.
Xiong Kuohai picked up his stick again, whipped out the whistling wind, and struck Yuwen Chengdu in the face.
Now Yuwen Chengdu finally reacted, and immediately opened the gold-plated phoenix wings, covered his face with a bag, and threw it towards the majestic sea.
clang!
clang!
clang!
Three heavy attacks.
Xiongkuohai was forced to take three steps back.
immediately.
His face suddenly turned pale, and blood spurted out from his mouth.
"not good!"
Wang Bodang and Xie Yingdeng observed secretly.
When they saw that the vast sea was deflated, they drew up their bows and shot three more consecutive arrows.
When Yuwen Chengdu heard the sound of the wind, he naturally turned back to block and deflected six arrows.
However.
Just take advantage of this little free time.
Wang Bodang and Xie Yingdeng were like civet cats, flying out of the alley in a few steps, grabbing Xiong Kuohai, and said: "Brother Xiong! Let's run together!"
As they spoke, they dragged Xiong Kuohai and rushed outside.
I saw a few people escaping.
Yu Wencheng couldn't help but become angry.
He shouted sternly: "My sons, follow me!" While shouting, he chased Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng and Xiong Kuohai.
Those three saw the opportunity and ran away without their lives.
While running away.
Several people had just passed through a small alley.
Step out of the alley.
They met another group of troops head-on.
Seeing this group of troops, Uncle Wang was horrified, and he couldn't help but cry secretly: "That's all! We're going to stop in Daxing City today!"
unexpectedly.
Among this group of people, someone suddenly shouted: "Two worthy brothers and heroic brothers, come here quickly!"
Listen to this voice.
Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, and Xiong Kuohai were all refreshed.
turn out to be.
This voice was none other than the voice of their loyal partner - Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao.
And look at this army again.
In addition to Qin Qiong, Wang Ke, Chai Shao, and Li Shimin are among them.
"Second brother! Lord Marquis! You two young masters! Why are you here?"
Wang Bodang was surprised and happy, and asked quickly.
"This is not the place to talk. Follow me to a safe place!"
While talking.
Wang Ke led everyone into a nearby mansion and immediately closed the door.
Entered this house.
Wang Ke and others went straight to the main hall.
in the hall.
A vigorous old man wearing a brocade robe is already waiting here.
When Uncle Wang saw that the old man had an extraordinary appearance and had the aura of a superior, he naturally did not dare to be negligent and bowed to salute.
"A righteous man is exempt from any gift."
The old man waved his hand and said.
"I dare not ask the old gentleman his name."
Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, and Xiong Kuohai raised their hands and asked.
"This is the old prince Qiu Rui, the king of Changping in the imperial court. He also has another identity, but he is the uncle of the second brother Qin!"
I heard Wang Bodang and others asking.
Qi Guoyuan, who was always quick-tongued, replied immediately.
but.
Upon hearing this.
Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, and Xiong Kuohai were all surprised.
…
turn out to be.
This Qiu Rui is also a former Northern Qi general.
Think back to the beginning.
When the empress of the Northern Qi Kingdom came to power.
There are four jade pillars and golden beams across the sea in the court. They are Taishi Qin Xu, Prime Minister Ning Luchen, General Hu Luguang, and Lanling King Gao Changgong.
later.
The empress of Qi unjustly killed Gao Changgong and Hu Luguang, destroyed the Great Wall of the country, caused the collapse of the imperial court, and made traitors rampant.
Fortunately, Qin Xu and Ning Luchen were still in control of the court, so we could barely maintain it.
Let's talk about Qin Xu, who has a son and a daughter.
Daughter Qin Shengzhu married the up-and-coming general Luo Yi.
His son Qin Yi married Ning Luchen's eldest daughter Ning Jie.
Let’s talk about Prime Minister Ning Luchen.
He only had two daughters at his knees.
The eldest daughter Ning Jie married Qin Xu's eldest son Qin Yi.
The husband of the second daughter Ning Yu is the King Qiu Rui of Changping.
As for how Qin Qiong and Qiu Rui met now? But it was about the time when everyone was forced into a dead end.
At that time.
Qin Qiong, Qi Guoyuan, and Li Rugui panicked and jumped over the wall into the nearby mansion.
unexpectedly.
This large mansion is Qiu Rui's residence.
Qin Qiong and others ran forward from the back garden of the house and met Wang Ke who had just returned from Yue Gong's Mansion and was about to chat with Qiu Rui about the old affairs of the Northland Army.
Wang Ke saw a few people and had some guesses in his mind, but he still asked the reason.
Seeing Wang Ke asking.
Qin Qiong didn't dare to hide anything and told him everything about today's lantern show.
After hearing this.
Wang Ke looked at Qiu Rui next to him.
Qiu Rui, on the other hand, looked at Qin Qiong's face in shock, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"Qin Qiong, you are called the last general, but where did you become an official?"
Absolutely cold.
Qiu Rui asked.
"Um?"
Hear this.
Qin Qiong was confused.
but.
He answered truthfully: "The last general served as deputy general under Tang Bi, the governor of Yanzhou."
"Okay, okay! Let me ask you again, when did you join the army as an errand?"
Qiu Rui nodded slightly and then asked.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask, I studied as an errand in the Licheng County Government when I was eighteen years old, and was promoted to the head of the police squad when I was twenty. Later, because of my merits in handling cases, I was promoted to be under the command of General Tangbi."
Qin Qiong answered honestly, but he just hid the incident in Beiping Mansion.
"Qin Qiong, what does your senior do?"
unexpectedly.
He just finished speaking.
Qiu Rui then asked.
Asked this sentence.
Qin Qiong's heart couldn't help but pounding.
but.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he realized that there was no malice in Qiu Rui's eyes, not to mention that Wang Ke, Chai Shao, Li Shimin and others were all nearby.
After pondering for a while.
He replied: "When Jiazu and Jiayan were still alive, they were all officials... They all became officials in Qianqi."
"I wonder what the names of your ancestor and your lord are?"
Hearing what Qin Qiong said.
Qiu Rui then asked eagerly.
at this time.
There was already a bit of trembling and excitement in his tone.
"The family ancestor's official residence is Taishi, his surname is Qin, his name is Xu, and his surname is Dongming; his surname is Qin, his name is Yi and his surname is Dingchen, and his official residence is in the main town of Mamingguan."
Qin Qiong settled her doubts and then answered.
"Oh! He is indeed my nephew!"
I heard Qin Qiong say this.
Qiu Rui no longer had any doubts.
He laughed loudly, hugged Qin Qiong, and said.
"My lord, you are the last general..."
Qin Qiong raised her head, looked at Qiu Rui and asked.
"Does your mother have a sister?"
Qiu Rui asked with a smile.
"Exactly! Jia Ci has a long-lost sister whose whereabouts have never been known. Could it be that the prince is the uncle of the last general?"
Hearing this, Qin Qiong couldn't help but think of the section about recognizing relatives in Beiping Mansion, and asked.
"Exactly! Exactly! I am your uncle, and you are my nephew! Hahahaha! I have been looking for your mother and son for so many years, and I finally meet you today!"
As he spoke, Qiu Rui shed tears.
…
Back to the present.
Wang Bodang and others came to Qiu Rui's house.
Everyone had just sat down.
The servant outside the door came in and reported: "Your Majesty! Something bad has happened! General Yuwen Chengdu has led five hundred cavalry to the door of the mansion, saying that he is coming in to search for thieves and thieves!"
