Ancient vines and old trees, dim crows,

Small bridges and flowing water, people’s homes,

The ancient road has a westerly wind and a thin horse.

The sun sets in the west,

Heartbroken people are at the end of the world!

As a group of people walked on the country road, looking at the farmhouses with smoke rising from the kitchen stoves, Yang Ming suddenly felt the desire to recite poems and compose poems. Unfortunately, after holding it in for a long time, I could only release my emotions by Ma Zhiyuan's "Tian Jing Sha. Autumn Thoughts".

"Whatever the human heart moves, things will do the same!"

Liu Chengu, who was in charge of the rear, kicked a strange-shaped stone on the roadside into the stream, then pointed at the Jin Zhiyuan sisters in the middle of the team and joked to Yang Ming.

"Brother Yang can still find the feeling of autumn in the fields in the middle of winter, which is really admirable. Especially the word "heartbroken man" is more appropriate, hugging him from left to right, it really makes others see that his heart is broken!"

Liu Yan'er also laughed when she heard this.

Mr. Yang is also a strange person. What he creates does not look like poetry, but the scenes he depicts are very immersive. Especially this kind of bumpy and wandering life, you can feel it from the lines of the words.

"Excuse me, Mr. Yang, what is the name of this poem? The format of this poem is not like five characters and seven rhymes. Is it possible that Mr. Yang did it on purpose? The words of this poem are appropriate and brief, but it also has a different artistic conception... What's wrong?"

Yang Ming, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and looked around. His serious expression shocked Liu Yan'er.

This self-esteem is quite fragile! I was teased just now. Is it possible that I can’t stand it anymore? Yang Ming's appearance made Liu Yan'er think that this pampered young man's self-esteem had been hurt.

"Relax. You walked in with a carefree attitude when there were hundreds of people around you. Why are you feeling uncomfortable now that there are only a dozen people? I brought all my daughters in, so don't scare me!"

Liu Chengu was depressed. The group of people went to the countryside to help Governor Zhang of Qizhou heal his injuries. Why did the atmosphere have to be so tense?

"Brother Liu, please let me know in advance before entering someone else's ambush. My sensing ability is not as good as yours. I only noticed that there are more than a dozen guards hidden around me..."

This was great. I originally thought I was facing only a dozen guards, but I didn't expect that Liu Chengu would face hundreds of people with just one mouthful. This is quite stressful for Yang Ming, as he also has to protect sisters Jin Zhiyuan.

The three girls in the middle of the team were also stunned! It's so good. A second ago, he was reciting poems and composing poems and admiring the beautiful scenery of the countryside. How come he was ambushed in the blink of an eye? Aren’t we here to save people?

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Two cold arrows came quickly from the forest and shot into the soil in front of Yang Ming. The force of this short-range burst raised up waves of sand and dust.

"Who is coming? Raise your hands and take off all your equipment!"

A powerful voice came from the forest. In their understanding, at such a close distance, Yang Ming and his group had already entered their ambush circle and were unable to fly!

"Enter the riding commander, Luhou Yang Ming, and ask to see Dingyuan County Duke Zhang, Commander-in-Chief!"

Yang Ming knew that this should be Zhang Gongjin's guard, but he felt uncomfortable being targeted with an arrow, so he asked quietly.

"Brother Liu, if you take action to clear out these guards, can you stay to protect my woman's safety?"

"Husband, please leave us alone and return to Lingxiao Pavilion quickly..."

Before Yang Ming finished speaking, the two sisters hugged Yang Ming's arms with tears in their eyes. They felt like they had become Yang Ming's burden again!

A friend in need is a friend indeed. This scene made Liu Yan'er feel very uncomfortable. She had never heard of love words in all her life. All they had were some deceptive lies promised to her by her senior brother!

"Look at the power of the arrow just now. At such a close distance, the lethality must be the weapon of the army. Not to mention your woman, I may not be able to protect even my daughter."

Liu Chengu shrugged and replied helplessly.

He thought that Yang Ming had brought him to rescue people, and the route and surrounding guards should be familiar with it. The person he rescued had a distinguished status. It was normal for him to be the governor of a county and have hundreds of guards, so he didn't pay much attention to it just now.

"In this environment, there is no cover. No matter how good a person's martial arts is, he can't resist the arrows coming from all directions! Brother Liu, just cover the three of them and step back twenty steps, and they will be safe!"

"Brother Yang, don't think so badly of me. If you don't stay to help carry the arrows, I'm really not sure that I can make the three of them return safely!"

After Liu Chengu finished speaking, he jumped into the field on the left and put himself in a defensive position.

"Hey! I thought the Qingzhou Zhao family was too simple! I actually brought you to their ambush. Don't worry, Brother Liu, if the person living here is not Zhang Gongjin, then we will return directly to Lingxiao Pavilion!"

Yang Ming gave up hope and silently raised his commanding officer's token in the direction of the forest. He also thought that there was really a traitor among Yuan Tiangang's bad guys, so he asked the messenger to deliver false news and lure them into an ambush.

You know, even if Zhang Gongjin quietly came to Qizhou to recuperate, he would not be able to bring hundreds of guards with him.

In the first year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin was extremely poor.

The Weishui Alliance used a large amount of strategic materials to send Jieli Khan away. Coupled with the recent natural and man-made disasters, Li Shimin did not have so much spare money to squander on his subordinates!

The army in the Qingzhou area is doing pretty well. The Tang army guarding Longyou Road is probably eating dirt at this time!

Even Li Yuanchang, the extremely wealthy royal family member of Han Dynasty, only had a few dozen guards when he traveled far away. Zhang Gongjin is just a acting county governor, and it is even less likely that he will have hundreds of people to protect him.

Just as Yang Ming was preparing to break out, a green-faced man with fangs wearing infantry armor jumped out of the woods.

This man is unusually tall, estimated to be about two meters tall. From a distance, he is not much different from Ding Daniu. However, from a physical point of view, it is still a bit smaller than Ding Niu. Normally, it only weighs more than 200 kilograms!

"Huang Laoji, a low-ranking official, came to see Luhou! The guards just now didn't know that Luhou was coming, so they were offended. They also asked Luhou Haihan. My governor is inconvenienced, so he specially asked a villain to come and lead Luhou to Shenquan Island..."

The green-faced and fanged Huang Laoji came in front of everyone. After bowing and saluting, before he could finish his words, Liu Chengu jumped up and grabbed Yang Ming's sleeve and asked.

"What?? Not only do you have an official title at such a young age, but you also let Li Shimin make you a marquis?!"

The father and daughter thought that Yang Ming was just a simple son of aristocratic family, and that reporting his family status to Lin Zhong just now was just a delaying tactic and was done as a last resort in order to escape.

Unexpectedly, the young man in front of me not only had an official title, but also had a rather small official position. The Captain of the Mounted Cavalry should be a high-ranking military officer. As for the title of Marquis of Lu that Yang Ming held, Liu Chengu was rather vague. . .
