The system swallowed an eagle before it digested it

The huge phantom of the mountain fell heavily.

The stone slab was shattered, the strong wind was surging, the six people hurriedly retreated, the smoke and dust filled the air, Tang Zheng didn't want to fight, and disappeared into the air.

When the soldiers regained their sight, Tang Zheng had already arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Xu An blew on the heat from the tea, and whispered to the two kneeling on the ground: "A guest is coming, go and greet him!"

Yuan Yi got up immediately, and finally expected someone to come, and quickly walked towards the door.

As for Chen Kangshi, he was winked by Xu An and disappeared in place.

This is a hidden game, and Xu An doesn't want to expose it too early.

From the moment he stepped out of the imperial capital, Xu An had planned everything, including the conflict between Tang Zheng and Ning Jun, and Fang Rong named him Marshal of Zhenjiang!

Every step was carried out in an orderly manner under Xu An's careful design.

In the absence of Shangguan Yuande, Xu An thought that no one could compete with him.It's a pity that he still forgot one person, a person who made Shangguan Yuande feel ashamed.

Even if it is the current national teacher, it can only be a tie with it.

Tang Zheng, who came to the City Lord's Mansion, sensed the familiar aura and instantly entered a fighting state.

Yuan Yi was still wearing a mask, and his white robe was not stained with a speck of dust. He waved at Tang Zheng, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, come with me!"

After Yuan Yi finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the inner hall. Tang Zheng followed behind him with doubts, and kept vigilant all the time.

"System, is there any danger around?"

【Ding! 】

[You need to pay 30 spirit points for inquiry. 】

Tang Zheng almost didn't fall, and managed to save some spiritual points, the system is thinking about it all the time!

Holding back his curiosity, he followed Yuan Yi to the hall of the inner hall.

Tang Zheng saw Xu An sitting on the main seat at a glance, and couldn't help but stop, feeling like he had seen this person somewhere.

"Does it look familiar? That's right, when you entered the prime minister's residence, Xu was lucky enough to attend the banquet."

Surname Xu?Could it be that he is...

Tang Zheng suddenly remembered something, and gradually two figures overlapped in his mind, indeed very similar to the middle-aged man in front of him.

Among the prime ministers of the current imperial court, one of them is surnamed Xu.

He vaguely remembered that his father-in-law had mentioned that the two were deadly rivals. Although they were both disciples of the national teacher, they had a very uncompromising style of conduct. They had fought countless times in private, and neither of them got any advantage.

Withdrawing his mind, Tang Zheng bowed slightly to Xu An, "See Mr. Prime Minister! I don't know how you came to Yanjing City?"

"The national teacher has something important to do, and I am ordered to come here to resolve the conflict in the northern territory and cooperate with the prince to quell the war."

The corner of Tang Zheng's mouth chuckled, it would be strange if he could believe these words.

Your father-in-law is from the north, the national teacher really wants to order something, why did he send you here?
Unless, what is going to test you?
"May I ask, Prime Minister, where are the members of the Jin family and the Tang family locked up?"

Tang Zheng changed the subject and spoke bluntly.Xu An put on a pensive look, and did not give an answer for a long time.

As the current prime minister, he actually got together with the Sirius Sect, probably the same as Ning Jun.

As the understanding of the Sirius Sect deepened, Tang Zheng couldn't help but secretly startled, how many of them were there in the court, maybe even members of the royal family.

Thinking carefully, Tang Zheng didn't dare to think about it any longer, and looked up at Xu An.

Feeling that the time is almost up, Xu An suddenly smiled and said:

"Ning Jun's army will arrive soon, and there are two roads in front of you."

"The first way is to go to the Tianyuan River in the frontier. The people you are looking for are all there."

"The second way, stay and fight out with your partners!"

The dilemma made Tang Zheng fall into a predicament.

It turned out that from the very beginning, he was delaying time in order to trap himself.

Yuan Yi sneered under the mask, admiring Xu An's methods in his heart, but luckily he didn't become an enemy with him, otherwise, he wouldn't know how he died.

Xu An was not in a hurry, and quietly waited for Tang Zheng's choice. Knowing the result, he looked at Tang Zheng with a hint of pity.

Both are dead ends, it depends on how many people Tang Zheng wants to accompany him to die.

At this time, the more sympathetic people are, the more people will be killed.

"Sorry, I never like to take the path arranged by others."

"My lord prime minister, farewell."

Tang Zheng smiled calmly, and before leaving, he made a gesture of wiping his neck to Yuan Yi.

Seeing Tang Zheng's back disappearing into the City Lord's Mansion, Xu An sighed slowly.

"My lord, is there something wrong?"

Seeing Xu An frowning, Yuan Yi asked aloud.

Xu An, who got up and walked out of the inner hall, did not know where he went, leaving Yuan Yi alone with doubts.

Chen Kangshi appeared, his faint murderous aura was quickly caught by Yuan Yi.

"You are the prime minister? Since Mr. Ning is the envoy, why do you call him the guardian?"

Seeing that Chen Kang was still calm, Yuan Yi couldn't help but feel relieved, he was really afraid that Chen Kang would lose control of his emotions and kill Tang Zheng face to face, ruining the plan.

Regarding Chen Kangshi's doubts, Yuan Yi briefly introduced to him the positions in the Heavenly Wolf Sect.

Under the leader, there are two elders, and there are two guardians under each banner.

As long as a Dharma protector dies, the envoys below will have a chance to take over.In the current Tianyuan Empire, there is only one guardian, and the second elder is going to let Ning Jun be the guardian.

As for the congregation, they are divided according to the number of blue wolf heads, the highest being three blue wolves.

Yuan Yi said, revealing the three green wolves with ferocious necks, and the strange and mysterious totem, which made Chen Kangshi's eyes horrified.

Every time I see it, it will cause fear deep in my heart.

"Let's go! Go and see the excitement. Maybe you can kill all the enemies at once!"

Yuan Yi gave an evil laugh, causing Chen Kangshi's eyes to show anticipation and murderous intent.

In Yanjing City, the elite soldiers of the dungeon guards began to rush towards the city gate. As the number of soldiers and horses increased, Shangguan Yunlan and the others changed their expressions slightly, hoping that Tang Zheng would come back as soon as possible.

Jin Bowen led people out of the city gate, and reported to Shangguan Yunlan: "There is no one at home, and they must have been arrested."

"Boss! The situation is not optimistic, we should withdraw."

The soldiers and horses surrounding the vanguard army were close to 2000, twice as many as them. If they didn't leave, they would not be able to leave in a while.

Shangguan Yunlan quickly made a judgment without any hesitation.

"All troops retreat!"

"Drive~"

Shangguan Yunlan took the lead to leave. Jin Bowen was about to speak out to dissuade him. Seeing that everyone had no intention of staying, he could only bite the bullet and retreat with the vanguard.

Shangguan Yunlan was going to lead the vanguard back to a safe zone, and sneaked into Yanjing City alone to look for Tang Zheng.

Linger and the others thought the same way. Seeing the vanguard retreating, the Yanjing soldiers were relieved.

If the two armies go to war, if word spreads, won't the Yan and Xiao families see it as a joke?
There is no one who confronts his own people with swords and swords, and the beliefs that everyone upholds do not allow them to do so.

Tang Zheng, who had climbed over the city wall, followed far behind, and You Long Xianying's body speed was comparable to that of a real powerhouse.

Since Mr. Ning was in ambush by the Tianyuan River, it must be full of dangers, Tang Zheng decided to ambush there first and check it out, lest the vanguard army die innocently.

Ning Jun's strength and strategy are both superior, Tang Zheng had to be cautious.

After passing several afterimages, Tang Zheng quickly rushed to the riverside.

From a distance, I saw Ning Jun standing on the river, many cages, half submerged in the water, Jin Hai and Jin Quan stood out.

The old man of the Jin family seemed to be injured, Tang Zheng raised his heart, he never thought that Ning Jun would actually dare to kill him.

He is not afraid, the court will pursue it?
Tang Zheng clenched his fists secretly, a strong wind suddenly struck behind him...
