Wang Zhan laughed, and then glanced around Zhao Zhen, "Mr. Zhao, I wonder if our eldest lady, He Yun, has come here with you?"
"certainly."
Zhao Zhen nodded, and at this moment, He Yun, who was following Zhao Zhen, also rushed out and said directly, "Uncle Wang!"
"Miss!"
Wang Zhan's eyes immediately lit up, and the men around him also laughed, reaching out and touching He Yun's head.
He Yun also smiled happily, without any discomfort, and this scene naturally made Zhao Zhen and others smile.
But at this time, Pei Yuanhu's eyes flashed and he said to Zhao Zhen, "Junior brother Zhao, you did it happily, but the consequences are hard to say. Zhou Jingshen will definitely report you to the court. Yes, there is also Li Yichen, Xiao Guanlan asked you to protect her, but you let Li Yichen fall into Zhou Jingshen's hands, what should I do?"
"It doesn't matter." Zhao Zhen smiled coldly, "If Zhou Jingshen sues me, I will sue him as well, and with Mr. Xiao inside, the court will not do anything to me. As for Li Yichen, don't worry about it, she She has a very high status, even if Zhou Jingshen controls her, he can only protect her well, what else can he do to her?"
After hearing this, Pei Yuanhu reacted and nodded.
While the two of them were talking, a tall figure wearing heavy black armor and a black cloak appeared from a distance. It was He Changkong!
"father!"
As soon as He Yun saw He Changkong, he immediately threw himself into He Changkong's arms. This made He Changkong laugh, rubbed He Yun's head, and then said to Zhao Zhen, "Boy, I didn't expect you to come so soon. .”
"Haha, I didn't expect that either."
Zhao Zhen also smiled, "But this is a good thing."
"Yes, it is indeed a good thing." Xiao Guanlan also smiled and nodded. He understood what Zhao Zhen meant, that is, Zhao Zhen had completely received Xiao Guanlan's support, otherwise he would not have come here so quickly.
"Okay, now everyone should dismount and follow me."
He Changkong smiled again, which caused the people following Zhao Zhen to dismount one after another. The cavalry were led by Wang Zhan and arranged to move elsewhere.
"Zhao Zhen, what do you think the atmosphere is like in Fengxue City now?"
At this time, He Changkong suddenly asked.
Zhao Zhen glanced around and found that although the atmosphere in Snow Wind City was solemn, the overall atmosphere was very quiet and orderly. He said naturally, "General He has a good command of the army. Although there is a war, there is no panic in the city."
"Haha, I'm not that capable. If war is really approaching, although I can ensure the stability of the city, I can't make the atmosphere so peaceful."
He Changkong shook his head and smiled.
"oh?"
Zhao Zhen's eyes flashed, "So, the situation in Fengxue City is not critical?"
"Well, to say it is critical, it is a bit critical, because Hanxue Dynasty has indeed gathered troops and made a gesture to attack Snow Wind City, but if it is not critical, it is not critical at all, because they are just doing He made a gesture of attacking, but never attacked."
He Changkong's sneer grew thicker, "And this is the interesting part. They didn't attack, and I didn't ask for help, but the imperial court sent Zhou Jingshen here. What does this mean?"
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "Seize power!"
"right."
He Changkong nodded immediately and said coldly, "I'm sure that Zhou Jingshen not only brought a will to support, but also a secret purpose, and this secret purpose was to deal with me. He definitely wanted me to step down. Even the attack gesture made by the Hanxue Dynasty must have been secretly arranged by someone."
"Well, the only ones with the ability to make such an arrangement are the Immortal Sect Yun Tianlong's faction."
Zhao Zhen responded. At this moment, he also understood what was going on.
At the same time, he also truly understood why Xiao Guanlan asked Li Yichen to come over. Rather than asking Li Yichen to be a talisman for them, it was better to say that he wanted to be a talisman for He Changkong so that He Changkong would not step down!
"So, although the external situation is not critical, the internal situation is actually very critical."
He Changkong said solemnly, "It will be very troublesome later."
"Well, it is indeed troublesome, but when trouble comes, we can only face it and solve it."
Zhao Zhen said the same thing.
"Yeah, let's go, let's talk again at the City Lord's Mansion."
He Changkong nodded, and then glanced at the group of people behind Zhao Zhen, with a vague look of surprise in his eyes.
As a strong man in the Wutian realm, he could naturally tell at a glance how outstanding this group of people were. Not only did they have a strong aura, but they also behaved with great grace, especially the white-haired girl who followed Zhao Zhen closely. He felt an inexplicable pressure.
"Haha, Yun'er, how are you? How are you getting along with Zhao Zhen during this time?"
He Changkong smiled at this time and looked at He Yun.
"Dad, what are you talking about?" He Yun's face suddenly turned red, and Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and said, "General, please rest assured, Senior Sister He and I get along very well, and we are making rapid progress every day."
"Yeah, I can see that."
He Changkong smiled and nodded, and then said, "But just getting along well is not enough. When you two become partners, I will really feel relieved."
As soon as these words came out, everyone around him was stunned. He Yun's face turned as red as a ripe apple.
Zhao Zhen was also stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly in his heart. He did not expect that He Changkong would suddenly attack him again.
But he would naturally take care of the atmosphere in the scene, and said with a sudden smile on his face, "Of course it's good. It's my honor to be able to partner with Senior Sister He. However, Senior Sister He seems to have always looked down on me, so I'm worried too." ah."
Hearing this, Yun Duo and others were stunned. It was the first time for them to see Zhao Zhen like this, so naturally they couldn't react.
"You're right, I just despise you and want to be my partner. You are just dreaming!"
He Yun was extremely embarrassed at this time and said directly to Zhao Zhen.
"Huh? I don't think so. Maybe one day my dream will come true?"
Zhao Zhen smiled again and said, "After all, there is a famous saying in martial arts, if you never forget it, there will be an echo."
Hearing this, He Yun glared at Zhao Zhen in shame, suddenly moved his body, and ran away.
Looking at this scene, He Changkong also burst out laughing, and Pei Yuanhu and others couldn't help but smile, looking at Zhao Zhen with a strange look in his eyes.
After all, Zhao Zhen's impression on them has always been that he was cold, determined, and unyielding. Now, Zhao Zhen suddenly became so joking, which naturally surprised them.
However, this feels good, because at this time, Zhao Zhen really looks like a young man, not that kind of fanatic.
Soon, everyone arrived at the city lord's mansion. He Changkong quickly arranged accommodation for everyone, and Zhao Zhen and others immediately entered a state of rest.
Although everyone is a master, traveling for more than ten days has consumed a lot of energy and energy, so naturally they need to replenish it.
And this supplement lasted three days.
In these three days, the city gate has not been opened. Even though Zhou Jingshen sent people to call the door several times, the city gate did not move at all. He Changkong seemed to treat them as if they did not exist at all.
This situation continued until the fifth day. On the fifth day, a sergeant suddenly came to report in the city, saying that the Hanxue Dynasty army had made some changes and had begun marching towards Snow Wind City. It was expected that they would reach the Forest of Death in just one day at most!
This made He Changkong, who was discussing martial arts with Zhao Zhen and others, change his expression.
And Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes, "Yun Tianlong's group is really resourceful. In order to force General He to let Zhou Jingshen enter the city, they even did not hesitate to let the Hanxue Dynasty make a real attack."
"Yeah, but it's easy to understand. The Immortal Sect is the master of the Dragon Continent anyway. Although it has very weak control over the star-level dynasties, it has extremely strong control over the mortal-level dynasties below. It can do this It’s nothing.”
He Changkong looked serious, "And what I'm worried about is not them, but the eldest prince of the Hanxue Dynasty."
"Oh? What's so strange about him?"
Zhao Zhen was moved in his heart. The sect of Han Mei and others was destroyed by this eldest prince. Naturally, he was also curious about this person's abilities.
"He is a genius. He is only nineteen years old this year, but he has already reached the peak of the eighth level of martial arts. There are rumors that the reason why he does not break through the ninth level is to accumulate strength so that he can break through the ninth level and Wutian realm in one go in the future."
He Changkong said seriously, "Of course, the most important thing is that this eldest prince is proficient in military strategy. He once led an army to defeat the Desert Dynasty, forcing the Desert Dynasty to cede territory and pay compensation. He even fought with our northern neighbor Tianyun Dynasty. Even if we fight, it will be a great victory.”
Zhao Zhen looked equally serious. He was nineteen years old, at the peak of the eighth level of martial arts, and yet he was so proficient in the art of war. He was indeed very strong, better than him. After all, he had never had the experience of leading an army in battle.
The most important thing is that if the other party can cooperate with the Yun Tianlong faction to attack Fengxue City at this time, it proves that the other party has been noticed by the Immortal Sect and is even secretly supported. Then this person is really a dangerous person.
"Dad, you have guarded Snow Wind City for so many years, I believe you will be able to hold it this time."
He Yun said seriously from the side.
"If it's just him, of course I won't worry. Although he is a genius, he is still too young. What I am worried about is Zhou Jingshen behind him. I have said before that Zhou Jingshen came with an army of 200,000 people, ostensibly for support. He is seizing power behind his back. Although I have left him out in the open these days, once the war starts and resources are consumed rapidly, the city gate will have to be opened. Then Zhou Jingshen will come in and it will be troublesome."
He Changkong frowned.
Zhao Zhen and others listened with solemn eyes. They also knew that this time was really dangerous. There were enemy troops outside and Zhou Jingshen inside. If they opened the door, Zhou Jingshen would definitely suppress He Changkong with his will. If he didn't open the door, then It can only consume a large amount of troops and resources in the city.
This is a dilemma.
After a moment of silence, He Changkong sighed suddenly.
