There are tens of millions of mansions in Ande, which can shelter the poor people all over the world and make them happy. -------Tang Du Fu's "Song of Thatched Cottage Broken by the Autumn Wind"
It is said that Chen Long rescued Liu Xian and Huang Gai successively at the top of the city, and then turned around to save Liu Xian. Just as he was about to force his way up the wall to search, he suddenly saw a yellow turban general on the main street near the city gate, wearing heavy armor and a white horse with a steel spear, commanding the troops under the city to capture the city gate. The sound of instruments banging on the door outside the city gate became more and more urgent. The city gate was filled with shadowy figures and soldiers from both sides. It was difficult to see who was still resisting. Chen Long wondered whether Mr. Liu was still guarding the city gate?
There was almost no room to stay in the narrow city gate. The Yellow Turban soldiers were not afraid of death. They stepped on the corpses of the Yellow Turbans in front of them and attacked in waves. They vowed to defeat the defenders, seize the city gate, and let the surrounding siege troops enter. . Chen Long failed to break in several times and became very angry. Suddenly, with a thought in his heart, he grabbed a spear from beside him and stamped his right foot on the city wall. The spear was in front of him and behind him, and turned into a long arrow. , got through the airflow, and shot like a rocket towards the commanding general on white horse.
The white horse general is Sun Xia, the deputy commander of the Yellow Turban Army. In this attack on the city, Xing Daorong taught the saint's plan face to face. He attacked the North City openly and secretly attacked the Xiangshui River. It was a success in one fell swoop. Sun Xia led 30,000 troops from his direct lineage all the way south from the Xiang River. Taking advantage of the relaxation of war preparations at the ferry in the middle of the night, he defeated the few Lingling warships, successfully landed on the east bank of the Xiang River, and marched straight into the city from the West City. . Lingling had few soldiers and it was only a matter of time before it fell. Sun Xiazhi was so proud that he relied on his large number of soldiers and was not very defensive, so he sent all his own soldiers to the city gate to kill the enemy.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded in his head. He saw one of the people leaping up with a gun and rushing towards him. He was as fast as an eagle fighting a rabbit. Sun Xia was caught off guard and had no time to think. Fortunately, he had rich combat experience and was agile. Subconsciously, he raised the steel gun and struck it, only to hear a loud noise. Sparks flew in front of Sun Xia's eyes, and he felt the tiger's mouth was hot. He could no longer hold the steel gun, and flew out with a whoosh. After a while, he landed with a clang.
Chen Long was blocked by Sun Xia's shot. Although Sun Xia's weapon was knocked away, Chen Long himself also fell to the ground. When he looked up, Sun Xia on the white horse had already drawn his sword and was looking at him eagerly. The yellow scarf next to him saw his coach being attacked and came over like a tide. Chen Long secretly screamed that something was wrong, stamped his feet and pulled out again. The Han family's spear skills were like running water. Sun Xia hurriedly waved his sword to meet him. The two fought for several rounds in an instant. Sun Xia was only half-blocked and half-blocked. It was very hard, Chen Long was anxious, so he used Qinggong to dance around his white horse. Sun Xia couldn't move well on the horse, and he only had a short sword to defend himself. He felt that his eyes were dazzled, and he was secretly screaming that something was wrong, and his temples were already heavy. After being shot, my mind was in a state of confusion, I fainted, and fell off my horse with a thud.
Chen Long quickly pulled out the Green Dragon Dagger and put it against Sun Xia's throat. At this time, the Yellow Turban infantry had closed up. Seeing that their commander was captured, they all stopped, looked at each other, and shouted: "Don't hurt General Sun!" "Let Deputy Commander Sun go!". Only then did Chen Long realize that he had caught the big fish Sun Xia. While they were stunned, he grabbed Sun Xia and jumped onto the white horse. He placed Sun Xia in front of the saddle and shouted condescendingly: "Listen up, your General Sun Xia is now in my hands. You must retreat immediately, otherwise your deputy general will die in your hands!" Some of the leading deputy generals in the Yellow Turban Army slowly retreated after hearing this, and the fighting in the city gate also temporarily stopped. Come down.
Chen Long shouted loudly: "None of you are allowed to move, General Liu Xian, are you in the city gate cave? I am Chen Long, and I have their deputy commander in hand. Come out quickly!" Chen Long escorted Sun Xia , riding a white horse, slowly approached the city gate, and drove away the yellow scarves blocking the way. As expected, a man walked out tremblingly, with a single eye and thin eyebrows, and a bloody robe all over his body. It was Liu Xian. Liu Xian lost strength in the battle and staggered forward. When he saw Chen Long's white horse stumbling over, the yellow scarves around him did not dare to move and instead gave way to a passage.
Chen Long pulled Liu Xian onto the horse. At this time, the city gate made a loud bang, and the door latch was finally broken. There were cheers outside the city. Chen Long knew that he would never be able to leave if he didn't leave, so he pushed the unconscious Sun Xia The man in the city gate was thrown away with great force. The white horse turned around without hesitation and rushed quickly along the main street. The yellow turban infantrymen surged up in a black mass, and the white horse gradually became unable to accelerate. Chen Long simply flew up, stepped heavily on the horse, jumped to the roof next to him, and quickly disappeared into the endless night.
Passing through the streets and alleys, Chen Long saw that the Yellow Turban Army had occupied most of the important strongholds in the city. He knew that Lingling City had fallen, and wondered what would happen to the prefect Liu Du. After a fierce battle, Chen Long was already tired and vomiting blood. He was carrying Liu Xian and finally approached the front door of the mansion. Suddenly, a tall man in black appeared from the shadow of the mansion door. It was Ma Yuanyi.
Chen Long was shocked. This man in black was very powerful in martial arts and his light kung fu was not weaker than his own. He was carrying Liu Xian on his back. How could he fight this fight? After putting Liu Xian down, he saw that Liu Xian had fainted and obviously lost too much blood. Chen Long was so anxious that he rushed forward to take action. Unexpectedly, Ma Yuanyi shook his head slightly and moved out of the battle circle to avoid the attack and get out of the way. Seeing that he had no intention of taking action, Chen Long wondered if Zhang Ning had told him not to stop him, so he carried Liu Xian on his back and walked towards the house. Passing by the man in black, the man in black suddenly coughed lightly and said: "My lady asked me to stop the Yellow Turban army from harassing the Huang Mansion. My lady's love for you, Chen Long, must not be let down." Chen Long. Long was slightly startled, but before he could speak, he rushed straight to the house.
The servants in the mansion hurriedly picked up Liu Xian and moved him to the ear room where Liu Xian was recovering from his injuries. Chen Long followed the ear room and saw that Huang Gai's family, including Taohua and Zhang Ning, were there. Zhang Ning was giving Liu Xian a hemostatic wrap regardless of the filth. . Chen Long sat down on the wicker chair, feeling like his whole body was about to fall apart. Taohua hurriedly came over to give him a gentle massage to see if he was injured. She said, "Thanks to Mei Niang, the doctor here, we can even apply a bandage to stop the bleeding." No." Zhang Ning turned to look at Chen Long and winked at him. Chen Long hurriedly said gratefully: "Mei Niang is really the best doctor in the world." Zhang Ning smiled when he heard this, and then went back to Liu Xian.
Seeing Zhang Ning's busy forehead, Chen Long was sweating. He knew that he only helped Liu Xian and others to treat their injuries for his own sake. He also thought of Ma Yuanyi's words, and felt warm in his heart. He looked at Zhang Ning's eyes. It’s different. Zhang Ning looked back at him from time to time, and the two of them just looked at each other in front of everyone. Chen Long quickly looked at Huang Gai and the others. Fortunately, they were all helping the wounded. No one noticed the little ambiguity between them, and he felt a little sorry. Peach Blossom, I had no choice but to close my eyes and rest. As the saying goes, beauty cannot be seen.
After Zhang Ning finished his work, both Liu Xian and Liu Xian fell into a deep sleep. While everyone sat down to rest, Chen Long reported the situation to everyone and told Huang An that he could never leave the city now and could only wait for the outcome of the war. Make plans again. Everyone sent servants to wait for the wounded and went back to their rooms to rest. Taohua kicked out Chen Long who had followed him to the bedroom, saying that he was giving Zhang Ning and Zhang Luo a bath in the bedroom. Chen Long, who returned to the wing, heard the news next door. The sound of water filled his head with longing thoughts, but Chen Long, a great hero, neither despised nor dared to peek at a woman taking a bath. Then, with a flushed face and ears, a wave of tiredness hit her, and she finally fell asleep.
It wasn't until daybreak that Chen Long finally woke up from his deep sleep. The magical effect of the group breath technique reappeared. Even though he was exhausted as yesterday, he woke up in the morning full of energy and vitality. Chen Long remembered that he had dreamed of Zhang Ning just now, and secretly wondered why he always dreamed of this girl before waking up. Could it be that he had fallen in love with her? I was troubled.
Everyone gathered together for breakfast. Taohua and Zhang Ning sat together and looked cute while eating. Because of the little thoughts in his heart, Chen Long didn't dare to look at Zhang Ning and kept his eyes evasive. Someone from Liu Xian and Liu Xian's side sent breakfast. After Chen Long and others finished eating, they went to Liu Xian and his wife's room to check on their injuries. They had both woken up, but could not move. They were eating, drinking, and urinating on the bed. Fortunately, they had servants serving them wholeheartedly. Liu Xian was worried, wondering what was going on with his father. Suddenly there was a sound of gongs on the street outside, followed by a broken gong voice shouting: "Common people, we are the Yellow Turban Army under Commander Zhang Daqu, and we have taken over the defense of Lingling." "Commander Zhang Daqu has an order, and he has done no harm to the people. Today the Yellow Turban army enters the city, and the people can come to the streets to welcome them!" The voice shouted over and over again, and the sound of the gong gradually faded away.
Huang An quickly called a few servants and went out to inquire about the situation. Chen Long was worried about the situation of Liu Yong and Zhou Buyi, so he took Huang Gai with him and asked everyone to wait patiently at home. After leaving the door, I saw that many people came out to see the situation and walked towards the North City Gate. Walking to the main street of the West Market, the Yellow Turban Army had posted a notice to calm the people. Chen Long saw that it contained some words about the Yellow Turban's promise that the people would live and work in peace and contentment, and that the former prefect Liu Du had been defeated and surrendered.
Knowing that Liu Du was not dead, Chen Long felt a little relieved, thinking that he could discuss it with Zhang Ning when he returned, so that the two people would not become sworn enemies. At this time, the sound of drum music was heard coming from the north gate along the main street, mixed with the cheers and applause of some people. It must be that the Yellow Turban Army entered the city and made its appearance.
The two of them stood on the side of the street waiting, and soon they saw the cavalry clearing the way. Each one had a distinctive saddle, and the head of the general was wrapped in a bright yellow scarf. He was in his thirties, with a long face, short beard, thick eyebrows, and high cheekbones. With a pair of big eyes and bright eyes, a strong back and a dagger hanging from his waist, he sat on horseback and kept gesturing to the crowd. Chen Long didn't recognize him, but he recognized the person behind him. It was Sun Xia who was knocked unconscious by him last night. Chen Long quickly lowered his head. At this time, Huang Gai asked in a low voice: "This general should be Zhang Mancheng, right?"
There was a steady stream of yellow scarf troops, neatly walking through the main street. Chen Long knew that these were just some troops selected for display. The military appearance was definitely neat. The army must still be stationed outside the city, but he did not know whether the food and grass in the city had been Kidnapped by the Yellow Turbans.
The two of them watched for a while, and seeing that they couldn't find out any more information, they turned back to Huang's Mansion. After returning home, Liu Xian and Liu Xian were able to get out of bed and walk with a limp. After informing them about Liu Du's situation, both of them were silent. How could the eggs be intact when the nest was overturned? Although they fought bloody battles with the Yellow Turbans for Lingling, since Liu Du had surrendered, he could not escape the charges. The mediocre court of the Han Dynasty would definitely put them into another book and make them wanted nationwide.
Chen Long sighed in his heart. After leaving, Huang Gai went to see his parents. Chen Long went straight to Taohua's bedroom. When he entered, he saw Zhang Ning mixing medicine for Taohua. Taohua came up to greet her with a smile. Chen Long told Taohua about the yellow scarf. Taohua was innocent and simple. , no matter who wins the world, Chen Long paid attention to Zhang Ning's face. Zhang Ning sat upright and carefully mixed the medicine, his face neither sad nor happy. After a while, the potion was mixed. Zhang Ning fed Taohua and let her lie down to rest for a while. He said to Chen Long: "Brother Chen, Taohua still has residual poison in her body. Let her rest for a while after drinking the medicine. Don't disturb her yet." He said to himself He walked out of the bedroom first.
Chen Long knew that Zhang Ning wanted to talk to him alone, so he said hello to Taohua and asked her to have a good rest first. He also stepped out of the house. He saw Zhang Ning far away from the peony bushes beside the courtyard wall, bathing in warmth. The late spring sunshine gave her enchanting figure a dazzling golden edge. Seeing Chen Long approaching, the two of them didn't know what to do for a moment, and both looked at the colorful peonies in silence.
Zhang Ning said slowly: "Brother Chen, we have sent Liu Du to a farm in a suburban county. You can ask Liu Xian to go there to see him." He told him an address. Chen Long silently nodded and took notes, and asked: "How do you know these details? Your bodyguard told you?" Zhang Ning did not deny it, and said: "I have the most detailed report here, you can ask whatever you want. Chen Long thought for a while and asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Liu Yong and Zhou Buyi?" Zhang Ning nodded and said, "There was a fierce battle at the south gate last night. Liu Yong took some people and escaped out of the city. Zhou Buyi I don't know, is he your friend? I'll ask them to help you look for it later." Chen Long knew that Zhou Busuo was a brat, so he wasn't worried. He nodded and asked, "Where is Liu Min?" Zhang Ning turned around and wondered. He looked at Chen Long and asked: "Are you concerned about Liu Min?" He understood something instantly, nodded and gave Chen Long a weak blow, and said with a smile: "Okay, it turns out that Liu Min claimed to have been kidnapped, but in fact he had already surrendered to you. This But let me catch you."
Chen Long didn't expect Zhang Ning to be so smart, so he quickly said half-jokingly: "The saint is indeed a saint." Zhang Ning smiled and punched him again, saying: "Fuck you!"
Zhang Ning was smiling happily, but suddenly his pretty face condensed, revealing a slightly sad look. When Chen Long saw her beautiful eyes filled with tears, he felt a pain in his heart and started to panic. When he was at a loss, Zhang Ning's voice came slowly: "The war here in Lingling is over. I have prepared enough medicine for Taohua. I will leave tomorrow."
Only then did Chen Long understand why Taohua was sad. He didn't expect that the time they got together would be so short. He felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to express it. Zhang Ning saw Chen Long's expression change and suddenly smiled again: "Brother Chen, before I leave, I have a gift for you, on the condition that you send me out of the city tomorrow."
Chen Long saw that Zhang Ning was happy and sad, and knew that she was not feeling well either. He quickly agreed and said with a smile: "Mei Niang's gift must be the best." Zhang Ning smiled and took out one from his sleeve. The small official seal was stuffed into Chen Long's hand.
Chen Long saw that the official seal was beautifully made. He turned it over and saw clearly that the four seal characters of Lingling Prefect were engraved on it. He felt a huge wave in his heart and asked: "Mei Niang, this is the official seal of Lingling Prefect. What do you think..." Zhang Ning interrupted Chen Long, looked deeply at Chen Long with his beautiful eyes, and said seriously: "Brother Chen, I just want to give Lingling City to you." After a pause, he continued: "Brother Chen, you are talented in the world. , but you take good care of the people. Your political ideals are like the warm spring sun, but you lack a paradise for your ideals to take root and sprout. I gave you this city as a gift precisely because I want you to realize your political negotiations and work for the people. The ideal of happiness.”
Chen Long's scalp was fried by Zhang Ning's words, his chest was full of emotions, and his blood was boiling. Suddenly, Du Fu's famous words came to his mind, and he blurted out: "There are tens of millions of mansions, and the great shelter will make all the poor people in the world happy. When the wind and rain do not move, it is as peaceful as the mountain!" Zhang Ning heard this, his beautiful eyes were shining brightly, and when he looked at Chen Long, his eyes changed, and he said boldly: "That's good! Great, the wind and rain remain still as the mountain, just like ordinary people. The greatest happiness!" Chen Long felt ashamed secretly in his heart. He actually used Du Fu's poems to seduce a girl. However, this gift was too heavy and he wanted to refuse. Zhang Ning had already said with a smile: "Brother, you can't refuse. The people of this city deserve it. Happiness is all in your hands. Today, I want to make a big bet with my eldest brother. Does your eldest brother dare to fight me? "
Chen Long was influenced by Zhang Ning's emotions. When he saw Zhang Ning starting to talk and laugh at Yan Yan, he felt relieved and said with a smile: "As long as it's the ultimate move released by the saint, I will follow it." Zhang Ning said: "Today, I will kill Zero Handing over Lingcheng to Big Brother is not just because of my good impression of Big Brother. It can be said that I want to give Big Brother a experimental field. After the handover of power tomorrow, the experiment will begin. This experiment is an experiment on how to govern the country. If I If the Yellow Turban Army conquers the world, they will learn from you how to benefit the people." Chen Long nodded and asked: "Then what kind of big bet do you want to make with me?"
Zhang Ning said with a smile: "I want to bet against the world with my eldest brother today, do you think it's a big deal? Today, my eldest brother already has a city. Let's see who wins the world first, or my father?"
