Zhangzhou.
At this time, the flag of Da Yue was flying on the towering tower.
A soldier named Otsuki stood on the tower with his head held high.
Perhaps none of them had thought that one day they would be able to stand on this tower and look back at their home. The feeling of immense pride made them all excited.
Looking back on the expedition up to now, everything seems like a dream.
In the main hall.
All the Otsuki generals were no exception, and they were all very excited.
In contrast, Ganfan Wang was very carefree. He looked at Lin Bai and said, "Brother-in-law, why are there only you and Yan Gang? Where are the others?"
This guy had no idea what was going on.
Lin Bai didn't say much, but asked: "What's going on over there in Xirong? Why was it suddenly released?"
Xu Da didn't know either.
According to this guy, when the initial negotiations failed, he wanted to take action.
But then, somehow, I was let go.
Lin Bai was also a little confused, but he had to give up because he couldn't figure it out, which was always a good thing.
At this time, several Dayue generals came over. Zhangzhou was a large city. Although it was captured, the people must be appeased.
These people dealt with related matters and came to report to Yue Qingchen, but no one was found.
Chen Linyun said: "I must have gone to Yanshui Pavilion."
The so-called Yanshui Pavilion is actually just an ordinary attic in Zhangzhou City. What is extraordinary is that at the age of twenty, Yue Qingchen and her mother were captured by the Loulan army and imprisoned in this attic.
Qie Yue Qingchen's mother eventually died in this attic.
now.
Yue Qingchen stood in the attic, looking at everything that was strange yet somewhat familiar, her eyes could not help but turn slightly red.
Twenty years ago, she and her mother were captured. In order to save her, her mother suffered all kinds of humiliation. She remembered the person who humiliated her until her death, namely King Gran and Prince Loulan. At that time, she swore that she would get out if she had the chance. , must avenge his mother.
Unfortunately, Loulan was too powerful, and she and her mother couldn't escape.
Just when she was almost desperate, King Jing's Netherworld Cavalry swept across Loulan's army and rescued her, but her mother was not so lucky.
"Mom, I'm here, and I will definitely bring King Gran's head to pay homage to you."
Yue Qingchen's silver teeth rattled, as if they were about to bleed.
At this time, a figure suddenly walked in, "I've seen the princess!"
Yue Qingchen calmed down her emotions, turned to look at the person who came, obviously startled, "Aren't you with my father? Why are you here in Zhangzhou?"
"By order of the king."
The figure said as he handed over a secret letter.
Yue Qingchen looked confused, then opened the secret letter, and her entire face instantly turned pale.
When Lin Bai arrived, her face was still ugly.
The talented man thought she was seeing things and missing people, so he looked around and comforted: "It's been so long, the past is over, don't think too much."
Yue Qingchen glanced at him and said, "Some things will never get over. Do you know why I hate Prince Li Chao?"
Lin Bai looked like I was listening.
Yue Qingchen continued: "Because when I was most desperate, it was King Jing who took me out of here. It was he who gave me hope, but in the end, he died in the internal fight between your princes from the Li Dynasty. Down."
Lin Bai nodded, it turned out to be his savior, so no wonder.
He immediately said that he was different from other princes.
Yue Qingchen ignored it and suddenly asked, "Have you ever thought about staying? Stay in Dayue!"
What do you mean?
Lin Bai was startled for a moment. Is this girl really dependent on her brother?
Yue Qingchen may also feel that these words are a bit explicit, and added: "Someone in Li Dynasty wants to kill you, but they will not send reinforcements and leave you alone in Dayue, leaving you to fend for yourself."
Lin Bai smiled and asked: "You are a general, and someone wants to kill you on the battlefield, so you just back down?"
Yue Qingchen said anxiously: "This time is different, the people who want to kill you are different."
Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, looked at Yue Qingchen and asked, "Do you know something?"
"No!"
Yue Qingchen denied, "My guess is that we haven't seen reinforcements yet. I must have many princes who want to kill you. They may have united. I just don't want King Jing's tragedy to happen again."
"Let's go! It's time to get ready."
Saying that, Yue Qingchen walked out of the attic.
Lin Bai asked casually: "What are you preparing for?"
Yue Qingchen said: "Of course I am preparing to continue the western expedition. This princess vows to cut off King Gran's head."
at the same time.
Somewhere outside Zhangzhou City, a huge goshawk fell again. The man holding the sword opened the note in the bamboo tube and sneered, "In order to kill him, I will do whatever it takes."
The man holding the sword didn't waste any time and handed over the note directly.
Nangong Buhui's face changed slightly, "It's really a big deal. Just to let Xirong block the mouth of Biandu and block the boy's escape route, he was willing to pay such a high price."
The man holding the sword snorted and asked, "Your apprentice won't betray you in the face of battle, right?"
Nangong Buhui said: "Impossible! I know who that girl is better than you. I'm afraid Da Yue won't be able to support her."
The man holding the sword asked: "Do you want to agree?"
Nangong Buhui thought for a while, "Promise! Why not agree? The princess wanted that boy to kill through the Hexi Corridor and meet up with Jingjue. The princess has already gone to Jingjue. If Li Chao is so ruthless, then that boy should be even more... Kill through the Hexi Corridor, then send your troops down when the time comes."
The man holding the sword said: "Then our people must hurry up. Zhangzhou has been lost. Loulan reinforcements are coming. King Gelan has fled to Heihe and is preparing to lure King Kunxie of the Xiongnu into the country. There are too few people around that boy. Once the big moon comes, Change and become more precarious.”
"..."
In the wing room.
Yan Gang stood aside quietly.
Lin Bai asked: "There is no news from Hexi?"
Yan Gang said: "Back to my uncle, there is no news yet. My subordinates have sent three groups of people over, but there is no news so far."
Lin Bai smiled and said, "Don't send any more."
Yan Gang opened his lips and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything and just nodded.
Lin Bai added: "But let people keep an eye on that side, there is also the weak water pass."
Yan Gang looked puzzled, "Staring over there?"
Does it make sense?
There is the Hexi army over there, and I only have a few people here. Even if there is something over there, it has nothing to do with me and the others.
Lin Bai said: "I suspect that Dayue has been threatened, and there is likely to be something unexpected over there."
Yan Gang's face changed slightly, and his eyes showed a look of disbelief.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Uncle, if this is the case, then our best choice is to retreat to the southwest from Biandukou."
Lin Bai smiled and shook his head, "If even Dayue is threatened, then Xirong is probably about the same. You might as well send someone to Biandukou to have a look. I'm afraid it's a sure-fire situation with an ambush from all sides. "
