Central Plains·Junting·Weishui River
"Go forward at full speed, take advantage of this momentum, cross the Weishui River in one fell swoop, and plant the 'Jun' flag of our Jinghong Hall on the remains of the Qingdeng Tower on that East Street."
As expected from that glance back, on the Weishui River, Tie Luhan led a flotilla of Jinghong Palace ships, galloping towards the East Street.
"Report~~! General Tie, there is a white-haired young man on the bank of the Weishui River, holding Her Royal Highness the Princess's 'Qing' flag in his hand!"
"What? The banner with the word 'Qing'? Could it be that Princess Nanling got there first?!"
Tie Luhan raised his eyes and saw Yun Musheng holding the flag on the shore, feeling resentful in his heart. "That damn thing, he took advantage of the loophole in the Sword Assembling Competition back then, and the woman next to him lost his hands a few days ago. Today is the perfect day to avenge my hands!"
As he said that, he subconsciously hit the pillar on the side with a pair of iron hands made for him by the demonic path of Jinghong Hall.
"Lu Han can't act rashly. Since Her Royal Highness the Princess has come in to add some firewood, you and I don't know how deep the strength is on the other side at this time, especially the woman in red with terrifying strength, not to mention our Jinghong Palace." The four Xingxiu lords have all just experienced the war, so it is definitely not a wise move to confront the princess at this time."
The person who spoke was Captain Zan of the Pioneer Army of Wu'an Jinghong Hall, Xiu Shan. Although this man's martial arts were mediocre, he was the brother of Xiuchuan, the second-level star of Jinghong Hall, and he was calm and calm, just like Tie Lu Qian. That punch had complementary personalities, so he was placed in the army.
"Hmph, it is difficult for a young Confucian scholar to go to the battlefield. You are so cowardly at your age. You are far from your brother, Master Xiuchuan. Today, I, Tie Luhan, will definitely win this East Street for Jinghong Palace."
————
"No, the vanguard sent by Jinghong Hall will be that lunatic Tie Luhan. This guy is young and energetic. Even if he faces the princess's banner, I'm afraid he will still bite the bullet and attack."
The general beside Leng Leng said worriedly.
"Don't worry, it's all Mr. Huimou's plan." Mo Yuqing waved the folding fan in her hand and said calmly.
"According to what Mr. Huimou said, if the vanguard is Tie Luhan, he will definitely attack us. When it is discovered that we do not have the princess to help us, he will definitely send a message back to Jinghong Palace to send troops, and the vanguard will Our military captain, Xiu Shan, is a cautious person. If we can capture Tie Luhan alone at this time, Xiuchuan will definitely withdraw his troops."
After Leng Leng thought about it, he had been in the Marquis Mansion for many years, but he had never heard of a person called Hui Mu. A look of confusion appeared on his face for a moment.
The Buwu monk on the side saw the confusion in Leng Leng's heart, and immediately replied: "It's that crazy person who often appears in front of the house and talks nonsense. Today, the donor Yun Xu thought that person was interesting, so he believed him. plan."
"That person...is crazy and always behaves irrationally. Can he really be trusted?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired boy on the bank of the river suddenly waved Xue Han in his hand and shouted: "Quick snow, clear weather, Han Che!"
A burst of icy sword energy gathered the waves of the Weishui River and rolled towards the fleet of ships in the Jinghong Hall. This sword came with such force that the river water on the shore froze into ice, making it impossible for the ships to dock.
And the ice blade emerging from the water also chopped off the heads and limbs of the soldiers in front, causing everyone in the vanguard to panic for a moment.
Tie Luhan immediately jumped up and landed on the ice. He held a giant ax in his iron hands and shouted at the army behind him: "Don't panic, abandon the ice on the ship and rush to the other side on foot!"
As soon as he gave the order, two figures suddenly came out from under the ice, their steps were strange and shadowy. Before the iron man could blink, his limbs were entangled in iron chains.
Then suddenly, a pair of boys and girls came galloping from the shore at a speed that could hardly be seen. They cooperated with the two people who tied up Tie Lu Han, so that there was one person on each limb of Tie Lu Han.
Tie Luhan was dragged away by the four men at a speed that no one had time to react. Several soldiers behind him were about to catch up, but they were stopped by Nazan Military Academy Lieutenant Xiu Shan, who shouted: "Princess Qinghe is ambushing you with heavy troops ahead. When all the officers and men listen to the order, they can turn the bow of the ship and retreat!"
Following Na Xiu Shan's order, the vanguard troops retreated one after another, leaving only Tie Lu Han's angry barking voice that was getting further away: "Damn Xiu Shan! When I go back, no matter who you are related by blood." , I will kill you in the name of disobedience on the battlefield!"
Central Plains·Junting·Xiaoyaohou Mansion
The white snow rises in the wind, for whom the death knell tolls; you bury your bones in the mud under the spring, but I leave my head full of snow in the world.
The sound of the bells of Xiaoyao Hou Mansion resounded north of the Weishui River. All the people and generals of the Hou Mansion were wearing sackcloth and mourning, playing a farewell elegy for Xiaoyao Hou who had guarded the east of the Weishui River for countless years.
Although the Xiaoyao Hou spoke in official style, he treated everyone in the Hou family and the people north of the Weishui River as close relatives. This is the evaluation of him by future generations, and it is also the evaluation of Yun Musheng and his party. The reason why people really intend to stay in the Hou Mansion for the time being and retreat from Jinghong together.
Many of the funeral bureaucracies have passed, and except for the previously displaced Dongjie people who temporarily live in the tents sheltered by the Houfu army, the rest of the people have left.
In the mansion, only the original key members and Yun Musheng and his party were left. Everyone was silent, and the silence inside the cold high wall was terrifying.
The master in charge, Xiaoyao Hou, has already driven away to the west, and the two bodyguards of the Hou Ye, Lei Yu and Lei Ao, have also been seriously injured and are still on the verge of death.
For a time, there was no one in this hall who could take charge of the overall situation.
"Amitabha, even though the Lord is gone, you can all go your separate ways and no longer have to guard these leaderless dragons under the dangerous building."
The words of Monk Buwu finally broke the dead silence. At this time, among the left and right guardians in the palace, Buwu and Leng Leng were the highest-ranking people in the Hou family. The older Zuo Guardian, Fuwu, was naturally the most powerful. The person with the right to speak.
"What about you, Master Fuwu?" Protector Right asked coldly.
"Amitabha, the poor monk once swore to my Buddha that from the moment he returned to the prince's mansion, he would live and die with the prince's mansion."
"Then I will be cold as well."
Yun Musheng sat aside and was holding back what he was saying, not knowing whether to say it or not. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said: "If you have nowhere to go, you are willing to join Yun Mou and join the princess's command. We are all capable people with lofty ideals." , I believe Her Royal Highness the Princess will welcome everyone to join us.”
Everyone fell into silence for a while. These words seemed so inappropriate, but they seemed to be the most appropriate arrangement.
"Hahahahahaha!"
A burst of laughter came from outside the door, which seemed particularly harsh in the heavy atmosphere.
"Joining the princess' command? Are you worthy of a few defeated generals who were beaten by Jinghong Palace and were unable to fight back?"
As soon as these words came out, all the backbone members of the prince's palace in the palace were furious. They were already feeling uncomfortable and had nowhere to vent, but the words they looked back at ignited everyone's anger.
Yun Musheng hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to him without knowing why: "Mr. Huimou, what are you doing? You asked me to propose that everyone join the princess in the palace. It is a bit inappropriate. If you are so agitated again, I am afraid that To be kicked out.”
Looking back, he did not answer Yun Musheng's question. He just walked to the center of the hall, found a chair and sat down like a fool, and said to the members of the Hou family below: "Hey, Xiaoyao Hou's bones are not cold yet, you people's aura , which is even more chilling than his corpse!"
"Fart! You, a lunatic, are talking nonsense here!"
"Whoever let him in, the arrogant person in the court, arrest him!"
The backbone members of the prince's government below could no longer tolerate what they regarded as a crazy person talking nonsense in this situation, and they all cursed angrily.
On the contrary, the guardians on the left and right were cold and not as angry as the people below. They all watched silently.
Looking back, he suddenly slammed the table and shouted: "You arrogant person? If it weren't for me today, the banner with the word 'Jun' would have been planted in the East Street area at this moment, and tomorrow, it will be planted all over the east of the Weishui River. It's not a pity that you defeated generals will die! But have you ever thought about the kind of humiliation and abuse the people east of the Weishui River will suffer!"
The audience fell into silence for a while, and several people who had just shouted indignantly were speechless after Huihuo's words. After all, it was true that they were defeated, and it was also true that Huihuo's strategy delayed the strength of Jinghong Hall.
"Then when you look back at the donor, do you have any countermeasures to defeat the disaster together?" The monk Buwu on the side clasped his palms together and asked respectfully towards the look back.
"There are countermeasures, but we need to determine one thing first. Who has the final say in today's Xiaoyao Houfu? Whose territory is it? Which company's flag is planted? When I look back, I see who I am making suggestions for. "
These words will put Wu Wu in doubt. After Xiaoyao Hou died, even if he still claimed the title of Xiaoyao Hou, it would not be a long-term solution. Naturally, he had to find a person with a matching status to take charge of this place.
"If you are in a dilemma between protecting the Dharma Protector, I have someone to recommend."
Mr. Hui Mu raised his hand and pointed at Yun Musheng who was sitting in the corner. Yun Musheng was shocked when he saw this. He never expected that he, a person who had just arrived here, would be recommended to take over such a big project. of burden.
"Are you kidding? He is just a young boy. Although he belongs to Her Royal Highness the Princess, it is simply a fantasy for him to become the master of our group of people."
The aggressive girl named Shark sitting next to Yun Musheng immediately objected, and everyone nodded in agreement.
"Shark, don't be rude!" Bu Wu thought for a moment, and then looked back and asked: "Donor Yun is young and promising, born in Huayun. He is the top martial artist in the sword competition, and he personally kills the enemies of my Shaolin Sect. Han Xie has even become a spirit exorcist, sealing away evil spirits in Wuzhen. For such a feat, he is indeed a powerful candidate, but... he is actually a bit younger."
Leng Leng on the side also asked: "Does Mr. Huimou want him to be the envoy of Her Highness the Princess and temporarily take over the important responsibilities of the Hou Mansion for Her Highness the Princess?"
Everyone in the audience was chattering. It was naturally impossible for the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion to submit directly to Yun Musheng, but if it was to temporarily take over the Hou Mansion for the princess, this was a feasible excuse.
Unexpectedly, the man who looked back suddenly took out an object that looked like a gold medal from his bag and slammed it on the table, and said angrily: "It has only been ten years, have you forgotten who the real leader of the Central Plains is?!"
Everyone was startled by the gentleman who looked back at him, and looked at him with puzzled glances.
Bu Wu on the side seemed to have thought of something, and then there was a flicker in his steady eyes.
"This Junting, this Central Plains has always had only one co-owner! It's not Jun Mo, it's not Xiaoyaohou, and it's not Her Royal Highness the Princess." He looked back and showed the gold medal in his hand, and saw the word "安" engraved on it.
"He is the king of the Central Plains, Lord Anling, Shangguan Tuo! And on the appointment decree at that time, it was written in black and white that Lord Anling has a hereditary title, and this white-haired young man is the descendant of Lord Anling. Man, he is also the hereditary Lord Anling. Today, he is free to serve in the palace. He should return to his origins and respect Lord Anling as the true master of the royal court!"
