Evergreen Immortal

"This Lord Lu is a ruthless person. Before Cao Wei's soldiers entered the city, he knelt down on the official road with the head of Liu Shilang's nephew in his hands. He was willing to kill himself. The men of Mingguang Zong were sent to the frontiers, and the women were sent to the border. Enter the Jiaofang Division.”

"admire!"

In a valley with green mountains and green waters.

Ning Zhongtian leaned comfortably under a large locust tree and told Li Rui and others about the outcome of Mingguang Sect.

Everyone looked at each other.

I originally thought it was a battle between heavenly thunder and earthly fire, but I didn't expect this...?

Especially Tan Hu, the knife was almost worn out, and the fight failed.

Cao Wei captured Ming Guangzong without spending a single soldier.

Is it really An Ningwei that Mingguangzong is afraid of?

No.

It's the imperial court.

As the saying goes, the whole world is not the land of the king, and it is not just the territory of the Yu Kingdom, but also that as long as you dare to disobey the Yu Kingdom's court, you will be chased to the end of the world and you will die.

This is the will of the empire.

Even if Ming Guangzong could escape the siege of An Ning Guard, he would certainly not be able to escape being wanted by the government.

They can only hide in the mountains and eke out a living.

It won't be long before the inheritance is completely broken.

This Sect Leader Lu was also a ruthless person, and he actually chose to kneel down and surrender.

You know, even if you surrender, the end will be the same miserable.

Even though he knew it was miserable, he still chose this way, so he was called cruel by Ning Zhongtian.

This is no longer a strong man cutting off his wrists, but cutting off his hands and feet just to live.

Ning Zhongtian slowly stood up and patted the dust on his body:

"Let's go, we can't stay too long, otherwise it will be bad if Master Cao misses us."

The reason why he didn't take action immediately.

That's because Mingguang Sect surrendered, and that was the decision of the sect leader.

But it varies from person to person.

There are definitely many people who are unwilling. Conflict is inevitable, and the use of knives and guns is inevitable.

He would not use the lives of his own soldiers to accumulate military exploits for Cao Wei.

It's a good time to go now.

Ning Zhongtian stretched and walked towards Mingguang Sect.

It takes a cup of tea.

Benhuqi arrived outside the city of Mingguang Sect.

entrance.

An army of more than two hundred people was already waiting.

Ge Hong, Wei Ming and the other two general bannermen saw Ning Zhongtian appearing and went up to greet him.

Ning Zhongtian looked at the blood that had not yet been washed away on the street, and then at his own soldiers whose clothes were not even torn.

He nodded with satisfaction: "Well done."

He had already told Ge Hong and the others.

For things like besieging a city, it's enough to just put in the work and don't put in any effort. There's no need to fight to the death.

If something happens, just let Cao Wei's people rush forward.

The four of them also perfectly implemented Ning Zhongtian's policy, which was to make one enemy advance while the other retreat. Those who didn't know better thought they were supervising the war camp.

Wei Ming grinned: "Ning Tou'er taught me well."

Ning Zhongtian kicked him and scolded with a smile: "You didn't teach me this."

When he was first chosen by Lei Yong to join the Anning Guard, he was once a good young man who was devoted to his job. However, he was reduced to what he is today because of the guidance of Wei Ming, a veteran.

"Let's go, let's go take a look, but we can't leave it all to the Jiaofang Secretary."

He chuckled.

He quickened his pace.

The Department of Jiaofang was under the control of the Ministry of Rites, so An Ningwei had to pay when he went there, otherwise there was nothing he could do.

But before it was handed over to the Jiaofang Division, it was able to cut off the nonsense.

Many of the beautiful and well-educated maids of government officials came from here, because they used to be noble ladies.

You can get first-hand goods here.

The appeal to romance veterans is undoubtedly huge.

After a while.

Ning Zhongtian was walking on the road with others when he saw two rows of elders and disciples of the Mingguang Sect, their hands and feet shackled, walking slowly towards him.

He sighed inwardly.

"Being ahead of the game."

I couldn't help but feel annoyed. If I had known better, I should have burned a stick of incense in advance.

Now they are all being escorted out of the city, which proves that the best goods have been picked away.

Ning Zhongtian suddenly lost interest.

He has never been weaker than others in his life, including picking up women. They are just ordinary things that are left over, and he really doesn't interest him.

"Take a look and tell me if you like it."

Out of boredom, he simply found a stone step by the roadside, sat down, and regarded it as watching a show.

Wei Ming and the others are really rude.

Picked one and picked two.

Ning Zhongtian was not polite and asked someone to pull the woman out from the crowd.

Caused a commotion.

However, when the soldiers guarding him saw that it was Ning Zhongtian, they all tacitly chose to turn a blind eye.

Yes.

Very inhumane.

But war is like this, and it is a great gift for the defeated party to survive.

Although few people died in this war and there were no large-scale sword fights, it was still a war.

As long as it is war, it is destined to be cruel.

Li Rui heard Tan Hu say it.

When we were in the Northwest Frontier Army, most of the women were sallow and thin, and they were deliberately painted with carbon, and some even had their faces directly tattooed.

It's because what the barbarians in the north like to rob most are good-looking women.

Being snatched away basically means that the valley road is broken and the result is loss of life.

The Anning Guards are not the frontier army, but since it is a war today, there is no mercy or morality at all. It is just not as cruel as the frontier army's war.

But the essence is the same.

In the Yu State, there was almost no army that did not divide the spoils after a great victory.

The reason is very simple. The brothers have already worked hard, put their heads in their belts, and won the battle. If they still care about the enemy and don't let the brothers feel happy, who will risk their lives in the future?

Expecting rewards from the court is just a drop in the bucket.

When the soldiers under his command rebel, the fun will be great.

This situation has happened many times to some officials who were parachuted from civilian officials to become military generals.

The imperial court also knew that it was too expensive to raise troops solely through taxes and money, so it turned a blind eye.

"Brother Li, don't you choose a warm quilt?"

Ning Zhongtian looked at Li Rui.

Li Rui is now a seventh-grade martial artist with a lifespan of one hundred and fifty years. There is no such thing as old age and weakness.

Li Rui chuckled: "They are all leftovers, there are no good ones."

Ning Zhongtian's eyes lit up:

"confidant!"

Li Rui sat next to Ning Zhongtian, and the two started chatting.

As Ning Zhongtian spoke, a flash of worry flashed in his eyes: "Brother Li, you have to be more careful in the future. Although our An Ning Guards don't have to get involved, there is no guarantee that we will be implicated."

He didn't say it clearly, but Li Rui understood.

Party struggle

With the addition of the new supervisor, the Lin Party regained the confidence to fight against the Xuan Party.

Under the emperor's control, it will definitely not cause too much trouble.

But what the Lord of the Dragon Court sees as being too big is very different from what people like Li Rui think. A word from a big shot is an insurmountable mountain for them.

The unjust death of several fifth-rank officials was nothing in the eyes of the emperor.

Li Rui also felt his heart sink.

"It's hard to have peace."

The Ghost Sect was not a problem at all in the eyes of the imperial court. Those big shots were more concerned about their own power.

This is true from the emperor to the national advisor and chief assistant.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about what’s in front of us: why Cao Wei became a general? It’s because of the fifth prince.

The relationship between Marquis Dingyuan and the fifth prince is unusual, and Cao Wei is most likely a member of the Xuan Party.

Party strife will inevitably affect the military, but it will not be as obvious as the imperial city and the government.

But just because it's not obvious doesn't mean it won't happen.

If any bit of scum from both parties falls on an individual, it will be a huge mountain.

Think about it.

Just like today's Mingguang Sect, the wife and daughter have become the playthings of the Jiaofang Secretary, and the end is so miserable.

Keep to yourself?

Harder.

At this time.

There was a commotion in the street not far away.

Ning Zhongtian and Li Rui turned their heads.

I saw a divine white horse walking proudly on the street, breathing white breath.

The surrounding soldiers all cast envious looks.

I saw a young man wearing silver armor riding a horse, but what made the soldiers envious was the woman who was immediately embraced by the young man.

The legitimate daughter of the head of the Mingguang Sect.

"Gaozhen."

A flash of disgust flashed in Ning Zhongtian's eyes.

Li Rui remained silent.

After this high-defense officer came to An Ningwei, he summed up in one sentence that he didn't do anything.

He has a perverse temperament and acts cruelly.

Chunyan Tower was so played by him that he almost didn't dare to open the door. Several women died, including the madam.

Later, Jiang Linxian personally scolded him and he restrained himself.

The only advantage may be that he has no intention of intervening in the security affairs, otherwise he will definitely be in trouble.

Ning Zhongtian glanced at his mouth, stood up, and patted the dust on his robe.

"Let's go."

"This place is dirty and unlucky."

Of course Li Rui understood that Ning Zhongtian was criticizing Sang and Huai.

Both of them are guards, and Gao Zhen is still from the Lu Yang Gao family. If he stays there for a few years, he will probably be promoted like Duan Yu.

There is no need to offend such a relationship household.

Therefore, even if Ning Zhongtian is unhappy, he will not be stupid enough to teach Gao Zhen a lesson and seek justice.

half day.

Mingguangzong was completely empty, and officers and soldiers from the Anning Mansion came to take over with officials from the Ministry of Rites.

Everything is taken care of.

Cao Wei then led his army back to the camp.

The corners of his mouth were raised, and he was high-spirited.

Even though he belongs to the fifth prince, he still needs to prove his ability with his achievements.

This time, taking down a big sect like Ming Guangzong without any effort will definitely be a credit to the fifth prince and Mr. Xue.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw Gao Zhen beside him.

He frowned slightly.

Gao Zhen was just riding a horse, and he also brought a woman with him. The key point was that the woman was the direct daughter of the leader of the Mingguang Sect, biting her red lips and trying to make ends meet.

"Dandy."

Even though Gao Zhen has joined his faction, it still cannot change Gao Zhen's image of a playboy in his heart.

According to law, the elders and disciples of Mingguang Sect must be handed over to the Ministry of Rites.

The legitimate daughter of the head of the Mingguang Sect is too famous. If she is seen by officials of the Ministry of Rites, she might get into trouble.

People from different systems may not be given face.

He had no choice but to come to Gao Zhen's side:

"Brother Gao, it's interesting to enjoy a beauty alone. Just ask someone to take a small road and send her back to Qinghe first."

When Gao Zhen heard this, he nodded with a smile.

Then he asked one of his men to take the woman in his arms away.

Seeing this, Cao Wei's expression improved, and he finally said something to dissuade him: "Brother Gao, men like us have great ambitions, but we should not be too obsessed with beauty."

"That's what Brother Cao said."

Gao Zhen's expression remained unchanged.

After Cao Wei left, the corner of his mouth curled up.

Addicted to beauty?
