Yuan Gongtai, who was walking quickly on the road, stopped and turned around, only to see Wei Gao and his men approaching with great force, blocking his way. Although there were only a hundred people accompanying them, their momentum was not weak.

Yuan Gongtai was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the guards on the left and right to step forward and protect him within the circle. When he was about to negotiate with Wei Gao, an arrow grazed his temple.

"Yuan Shijun, where do you want to go?" Pei Jiaoran's frosty voice came from behind.

Ignoring Pei Jiaoran, Yuan Gongtai said: "Why does Commander Jie do this?"

After hearing this, Wei Gao looked up at Pei Jiaoran. Seeing her nodding, he waved his hand to his sergeants to attack Yuan Gongtai.

Sergeant Haozhou had just fought with Pei Jiaoran, and now he saw this evil god standing in front of him. Coupled with the bravery of the Huainan army, he was heartbroken and immediately lost his weapons and fled.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Gongtai ordered his personal guards to stop the Huainan army. He personally fought his way out with a knife, fighting and retreating under the protection of his personal guards. He was killed, but there were fewer and fewer people around him, and in the end there were only a few dozen people left.

"Let him go farther away. I've prepared a gift for him from the north." Pei Jiaoran drove his horse closer to Wei Gao, speaking softly.

"Mr. Pei is truly an extraordinary person."

While the two were talking, Yuan Gongtai had disappeared.

Yuan Gongtai, who finally got rid of the fighting and pursuit, fled to the north of the city in panic. Contrary to what he imagined, the north gate of the city was closed tightly, and there was no sign of being captured. After a short rest, he led the crowd up to the watchtower, blocked the door, and then made plans.

The watchtower can be seen both inside and outside. Seeing the crowds of people outside the city, Yuan Gongtai immediately ordered people to open the city gate. He almost forgot that there were Cai Xilie's remnants and followers of Zihua God at the door.

The city gate was opened, and the rebels at the door also received Yuan Gongtai's signal, and rushed into the city to pick him up. Not long after the group of people walked out, they happened to bump into Pei Jiaoran and others who were chasing after them.

"Prime Minister Pei, if I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?" Yuan Gongtai sighed.

"Noisy."

After she coldly dropped the word, the two sides clashed again. It is still the most primitive fight between iron and blood. In close combat, strength is the greatest advantage.

Being firmly involved in the battle. Pei Jiaoran looked at Wei Gao who was preoccupied with himself. Withdrawing his sword neatly, he picked up the spear on the ground and started fighting. The light and elegant swordsmanship can no longer fully exert its power under the attack of the long soldiers. Abandoning the sword and holding a gun is the only choice.

However, since I had never used a gun before, it was a bit difficult. Pei Jiaoran controlled the direction of the gun head as much as possible, but the sharp blade still scratched his side, and the smell of blood filled the air.

Avoiding the sharp edge that pierced her neck, the next moment the blade immediately hit her in the abdomen. Pei Jiaoran was knocked to the ground by the huge force. Before he could get up, a sharp edge struck him. He rolled to the side subconsciously, but was pierced through his shoulder by a sharp blade.

The sharp pain in her shoulder reminded Pei Jiaoran of her current situation. Looking at the sky hanging upside down in front of him, Pei Jiaoran closed his eyes and sighed. He released the Ming Dy hidden in his sleeve.

After the sharp sound fell, she could almost hear the sound of horse hooves getting closer. There was smoke and dust in the distance, and shouts of death rushed into her ears. It was the ambush force she had hidden the deepest that was dispatched.

However, at this moment, a blade passed by her eyes. Pei Jiaoran looked at the ferocious Yuan Gongtai gently, with a smile on his lips. Then the next moment, the blade was opened by Han Li, and his flesh and blood body was penetrated by Li Feng. Someone called her in the noise.

When she closed her eyes and opened them again, she saw someone reaching out towards her. Looking up from his hand, he saw a pair of eyes filled with anger and regret. He was supposed to be gentle and profound.

He's here too. But shouldn't he stay in the city to help her stabilize the situation and wait for her to return?

Pei Jiaoran took hold of the arm stretched out to him, and was instantly pulled onto his horse and held in his arms.

"Li Xiujing." Pei Jiaoran called in a deep voice.

"I'm here."

"It's time to close the net."

"it is good."

The Boshan furnace is filled with the scent of Xunling Shili incense. The light blue gauze curtain covers the autumn sun, but there is still a faint sunlight sneaking into the tent quietly. Pei Jiaoran's eyes trembled slightly and he wanted to turn around, but his whole body hurt terribly. After being silent for a while, she slowly opened her eyes. She wanted to raise her arm, but found that the person outside the tent was holding her hand firmly.

Looking outside through the curtain, even though it's not clear who it is. But she also caught a trace of remorse and relief on the other person's face in the hazy state.

"The situation..." After saying half a sentence, Pei Jiaoran swallowed it back and said warmly: "Thank you."

The light and shadow lifted up the curtain and fell on Pei Jiaoran's face. Looking at Li Xiujing who was leaning in halfway, she pursed her lips.

"Are you thirsty?" Li Xiujing asked with a smile.

"Thirsty." Pei Jiaoran pursed his chapped lips. She actually wanted to ask what was going on now, but her intuition told her that it was not the time to ask this question yet. While Li Xiujing went to pour water, she lowered her head and looked at herself. The wounds on his hands and body had been carefully bandaged. However, the pain in her abdomen and shoulders reminded her of what she had been through.

The curtain was lifted again, and Li Xiujing handed her water. Lift up the gauze curtain and hang it on the jade belt hook, letting more sunlight fall on Pei Jiaoran. Then he gathered his clothes and sat on the edge of the couch, looking sideways at the people around him.

"Why don't you ask me the result?" Li Xiujing held her hand and placed it against his heart. His voice was gentle and gentle, but still had a hint of persistence.

When asked, Pei Jiaoran blinked, his eyes slightly lowered and completely closed, "Because I believe you, so I don't need to ask about the result."

"Yuan Gongtai is still alive and is currently in the state prison. The followers of Zihua God have been wiped out and the temple has been demolished. Cai Xilie's remnants were all escorted back to Chuzhou by Wei Gao." Li Xiujing Looking at her, his tone was calm, "What else do you want to do? I'll help you."

"No." Pei Jiaoran rubbed the edge of the lamp with his thumb and said lazily: "If you come back to save me this time, Chang'an will have to give them an explanation. I will do it."

"You are still injured." Li Xiujing reached out and touched the tea cup in her hand to confirm that the temperature was acceptable. "It's nothing more than a salary. Don't worry, Jiajia, I still have some savings."

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran laughed out loud. Passing the tea cup to Li Xiujing, "Du Neng should have received the news. I'm tired from lying down for a few days, so come with me for a walk."

"The doctor said your wound hasn't healed yet and you can't see the wind. Just stand by the window." Li Xiujing helped her get up. "Zhou Mancao and Bi Fei are also helping you with the aftermath, so you can rest assured."

Pei Jiaoran slowly moved to the window and looked around.

"This is not a state house." Pei Jiaoran said.

"After all, this is a place that Yuan Gongtai has governed for many years. There is no guarantee that there will be no remnant of his troops hiding in it. I don't dare to bet." Li Xiujing hugged her gently and spoke softly, "When I saw you like that, I was thinking about what might happen to you. If something happens, cutting Yuan Gongtai into pieces with a thousand swords will not be enough."

He and Guo Shun broke through two city gates at the same time and fought all the way in. When they were about to find Pei Jiaoran, they were told that she wanted him to occupy the prefecture and the arsenal. He listened to her arrangement, but news came again that Yuan Gongtai had escaped from the north of the city, and she pursued him personally.

He didn't think much about leading the troops to chase him personally. As a result, he saw Pei Jiaoran in danger. He tried his best to save her.

"That would be too cheap for him... I have to make his death worthwhile." Pei Jiaoran took a deep breath, "I will see him in a few days. You can't let him die."

"it is good."
