Qing Yan

The King's army of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in full swing, and the Beizheng army retreated steadily.With the assistance of Monan Iron Cavalry, Wang Jun's forward troops quickly took down several cities, and a letter of success flew to Yu Wenrui's central army.

Yu Wenrui was naturally happy. While encouraging the whole army to go all out to capture Zhengdu, she secretly warned herself against arrogance and impetuosity.

Contrary to the high morale on Dazhou's side, Beizheng's army was almost crushed.

In the past, Yang Can came out of the Great Zhou Dynasty. When the dynasty was first established, there were still some loyal generals around him, who could be regarded as concentric with each other.But the older Yang Can was, the more self-willed and self-serving problems that emperors often had.Later, Yang Lie forced the palace. Yang Lie was an extremely self-righteous person. He became the emperor, but he became the emperor by bloody means. Compared with his father, he was even more self-righteous than his father.Until Yang Lie died and Zhan Teng assumed power, the political situation of the Beizheng court was considered to be rotten to the root.Not to mention that the ruling and opposition parties deeply hated the Zhan family and there were so many people who dared to be angry and dare not speak out, even the guards of the cities, most of them also had the idea of ​​"saving life is far better than dying for the country".

Therefore, when the soldiers of Da Zhou and Monan arrived, [-]% of the ten out of ten defenders abandoned the city and fled, and the remaining thirty percent simply surrendered to the pool, and less than one percent still had the courage to fight, or died in the fight, or Unwilling to be humiliated by the enemy, he wiped his neck and committed suicide.

In this way, the only one that can still support it with all its strength is Zhan Yu's army, but it also fights and retreats until there is no way to retreat.

In the Forbidden Palace of Beizheng, the little emperor Yang You was reading the battle report in front of him. There was no good news in the thick stack of battle reports.

"Whoa-"

In a fit of rage, he overturned the contents of the case, including the stack of battle reports, to the ground.Because of his small size and weak strength, coupled with the anger in his belly, he gritted his teeth panting, his little face flushed red.

"Idiots! They are all idiots!" His tender childish voice echoed in the hall.

The servants and maids on duty in the palace knelt down and bowed down, not daring to make a sound.No matter how small and weak the emperor was, he was still the emperor after all. Even though all of them thought about how to escape when the Zhou army broke through the city, no one was hesitant to show their life-saving low profile under the low eaves.

"Dezi! Where's Auntie? Why haven't you been invited yet?" Yang You asked impatiently with a serious face.

The little waiter who was named bravely said obediently: "Your Majesty, someone has already sent someone to invite you, but..."

"But what?!" Yang You lost his patience when he heard him hesitating.

"The eldest princess... is ill..."

"Ill? I saw she was fine the day before yesterday."

"The people who sent it back said that the eldest princess has a high fever and has not had any water or rice for a day and a night." The little servant said truthfully.

"It's all my fault... If I hadn't been dragging my aunt to discuss military and state affairs day and night, my aunt would not have been so seriously ill! It's my useless..." Yang You slumped on the ground helplessly, his eyes glazed over.

"Did the imperial doctor go to see it?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has already gone to the eldest princess' mansion." The servant replied respectfully.

Yang You sighed, stood up, shook his robe, "Give me a ride! I'm going to see my aunt at the eldest princess' mansion."

Before the servant's "yes" came out of his mouth, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the hall.

"Who is making noise?" Yang You showed displeasure.

Before anyone could answer him, there were screams, the sound of weapons hitting, and the sound of combat boots slamming on the ground one after another.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty! Something is wrong! King Jin, King Jin..."

A servant ran in scrambling, with fresh blood on the skirt of his clothes.But before he could finish his sentence, he was nailed to the back of his heart by an arrow shot from nowhere, and he died without more humming.

Large swathes of blood stained from under the body of the dead body, seeping into the gaps in the floor tiles...

"Ah!" Yang You was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he sat down on the ground, trembling into a ball.

King Jin?

How is King Jin?

Could it be the other way around?

"You abandoned such a good thing? You Yang family are really prodigals." Zhan Teng in the red robe and black armor walked slowly to the side of the little emperor's desk, and bent over to pick up the jade seal that had been swept to the ground before. , hold it in the palm and look carefully.

Yang You's face was ashen, and he stared at the sword on his waist, fearing that he would draw the sword and slash at him in the next moment.

Zhan Teng raised his eyelids, and said sinisterly, "Are you afraid of me?"

Yang You shuddered, and subconsciously rubbed back: "You...what are you going to do?"

There was an evil smile on the corner of Zhan Teng's mouth: "Can't you see that? Of course they are here to kill you!"

Yang You's whole body was icy cold, "You, you want to rebel|rebel!"

"Rebellion?" Zhan Teng looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had heard a very funny joke.

"I really want to rebel! I didn't expect your Yang family to be so unsatisfactory. Before I rebel against you, you will be finished first!"

"You...you..." Seeing the fierce look on his face, Yang You was terrified.

"If I had known this, I should have killed you sooner!" Zhan Teng roared, "staggering" and drew out his sword.

"However, it's not too late now!"

"I am the Son of Heaven! How dare you kill the king!" Yang You shouted hoarsely with the courage he didn't know where he came from.

Zhan Teng laughed loudly: "Emperor Dazheng? What a fart! Now you are the only brain that is still useful..."

Inside and outside the main hall, there were dead bodies lying here and there, like a bloodbath.

Zhan Teng shook off the blood on the blade, and said coldly: "If there is one in the harem, it counts as one, and half of them will not be left alive!"

Chang Xiao, who was dressed in black, nodded yes, but said worriedly, "Where is the eldest son..."

Zhan Teng snorted coldly: "Nizi who doesn't know what is good or bad, let him go!"

He pondered for a moment, and then said: "You take the people back to the palace yourself, and no matter what happens, you must protect the princess and Zhan Ying. Gu entrusts the safety of their mother and child to you!"

Chang Xiao shivered, "Don't worry, my lord!"

He said again: "Where the eldest princess is, the prince must be careful!"

Zhan Teng said disdainfully: "She is dying of illness, even if she is not ill, what can a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken do to me?"

Beizheng, the residence of the eldest princess.

"Hanqiu, is there any news from the palace?" Yang Xi asked the personal maid with a haggard face, supporting his weak body.

"Your Highness..." Hanqiu hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter? Did your Majesty come down to ask the Palace to discuss important matters?" Yang Xi asked urgently.

"Your Majesty, he...he..." Hanqiu bit her lips, wondering if she should tell the bad news to the seriously ill Eldest Princess.

"What's the matter? Are you going to die in a hurry?"

Han Qiu's heart thumped, "Your Majesty, he..."

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

Several cannons fired one after another, which was deafening, and Hanqiu's words were also drowned in the sound of the cannons.Immediately afterwards, the sound of shouting and killing was loud.

"What noise!" Yang Xi left the bed in a panic, "Could it be Zhou Jun..."

"Your Highness!" Hanqiu rushed forward to support her, "You are still sick!"

"Don't stop me!" Yang Xi suddenly waved her arm away, "This must be Zhou's army attacking the city! I must hurry to the palace to see you..."

"Your Highness! Hanqiu let out a mournful voice, "Your Majesty, he...has, already passed away! "

"You said... what?" Yang Xi's eyes were bloodshot, in disbelief.

"It's the King of Jin! The King of Jin rushed into the palace with his troops, and gave all the people in the palace..." Hanqiu couldn't continue.

Yang Xi only felt a strong dizziness hit her, her eyes went dark, and she fell to the ground.

The capital of Beizheng was broken by Wu Bin's vanguard.The siege battle was not very strenuous, and all the difficulties Wu Bin expected did not arise.Zhou Jun and the people of Monan lost some horses, but it was far less tragic than Beizheng's side.

The city wall was dilapidated, and a hole was torn open. The smoke had not yet cleared, and the air was still filled with the smell of blood.Wu Bin rushed across the moat and stepped into the capital of Beizheng.

Now that Zhengdu is broken, the imperial power of Beizheng has since become history, and the unification of the Great Zhou Dynasty is just around the corner.Wu Bin couldn't wait for the memorial, and as soon as he captured the city, he ordered people to hurry up and report the good news to Yu Wenrui.He himself remained patient and excited, and led his troops into the city——

Emperor Yang is still in the palace of Zhengdu, the people in the city need to be appeased, and the messy battlefield needs to be sorted out... There are too many things to do, he has to hurry up and try to sort out these things as much as possible before Yu Wenrui arrives That's it.

However, what was waiting for him in front of the Beizheng Palace was not the surrendered Yang family, but a burly middle-aged man dressed as a general, followed by a group of followers, all of whom abandoned their weapons obediently and remained silent. silent.

The scene in front of him was not within Wu Bin's expectation.He was stunned for a moment, led his horse forward, and said loudly: "This general is the vanguard officer in front of the Emperor of the Great Zhou. Who is in front?"

Unexpectedly, the man in the red robe put a brocade box in front of his forehead, and said in a high voice: "Wu Chenglie of the Great Zhou Dynasty was the successor of the king of the Lie Dynasty, and Sun Yuwenqing of the former prime minister of the king of the Lie Dynasty, endured humiliation and burdened the foreign country for twenty years. Live up to the boldness of our ancestors in the Great Zhou Dynasty who raised Jinyang to be the world's advocate, and live up to the hardships of the Taizu Emperor in creating an imperial career. Qing has killed the Yang family against the emperor, and together with the jade seal, presented it to the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty !"

As he spoke, his eyes were red and he almost choked up.

What he said, not to mention Wu Bin, including the generals and soldiers behind him, as well as the former Beizheng soldiers who were present were stunned.

Most people in Beizheng don't know the history of the Zhou Dynasty, but those generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially the children of aristocratic families, all know it——

Yu Wenyue, the younger brother of Tai|Emperor Tai|Zu, who helped Tai|Zu raise an army in Jinyang. He was heroic, benevolent and brave, but unfortunately died young. In memory of Tai|TaiZu, he bestowed the posthumous title of "King Wu Chenglie".Yu Wenyue's two sons, the eldest son Yu Wenxin conspired against Gaozu during the reign of Emperor Gaozu, and was killed by his younger brother Yu Wenyi righteously, helping Gaozu quell the rebellion.

Besides Yu Wenqing, isn't that Yu Wen Chengji's only son?Didn't you send troops with the army in the early years and die in battle?The one that popped up now, he claims to be Yu Wenqing...

An older general of the Zhou Dynasty had seen Yuwen Chengji before, and couldn't help but look at this red-robed man——

Whoops!Not to mention, there really seemed to be a faint shadow of Yuwen Chengji between the facial features.

Wu Bin sat on the saddle, looked at the brocade box held up high by the man in red robe, there was no doubt that it was Beizheng Yuxi inside; then he lowered his eyes to look at the bloody package on the ground, maybe it belonged to the little emperor Yang You of Beizheng first level.Wu Bin was worried.

"Is the old thief bullying me without wisdom!" Yu Wenrui shouted angrily, throwing the letter on the ground.

Wei Shun was stunned, and thought, "Didn't Your Majesty be fine before?"He also praised General Wu for his good fight.What's going on here?

Isn't it the military report of General Wu announcing the good news?

He glanced at the letter paper on the ground, hesitating whether to pick it up.

"Who messed with you again?" A gentle voice sounded, and someone had already bent over to pick up the letter paper and patted off the dust on it.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager!" Wei Shun blushed, it was his own work, but this master picked it up, rude, rude!

"Sister-in-law!" Yu Wenrui stood up from his chair and met Jing Yan, his face still blushing with anger.

Jing Yan let her pull him to sit down, read a few lines of letters, and smiled: "Zhengdu is broken, the overall situation is settled, this is a good thing!"

Yu Wenrui snorted unhappily: "Yan'er hasn't read the latter yet! The latter is so talented!"

She inadvertently called out a title that only the two of them had when they were alone, Jing Yan's cheeks flushed immediately, and even Bingbi and Shimo bowed their heads in embarrassment.Still Shen Quan was clever, and left by looking at others, leaving only Jing Yan and Yu Wenrui behind.

Jing Yan's cheeks were still a little hot, she cast a reproachful glance at Yu Wenrui, carefully read the contents of the letter, and after reading it, she remained silent.

Yu Wenrui still hated himself: "Old thief Zhan Teng, you are really treacherous! I haven't killed him yet, so he came here first!"

As he said that, Fu gritted his teeth again and said, "Wu Bin is a good fighter in war, and he's too bad at handling emergencies! If I were him, I'd chop off the old thief's head first, and let him confuse the crowd!"

"Anxious again?" Jing Yanqin's cold palm covered Yu Wenrui's, and said solemnly: "Did you suffer too little before?"

Yu Wenrui pursed her lips, and the shallow scar on her cheek jumped twice because of Jing Yan's words, which reminded her of those days when she was in a desperate situation and almost died, and then suffered serious injuries and pain, the corners of her mouth drooped.

"Don't be impatient. In order to be able to stay with Yan'er for a long time, I will not be impatient anymore!" Yu Wenrui swore.

Jing Yanfang's face that had faded from the heat felt slightly hot again, but such words made her feel sweet in her heart, and she couldn't help but pull Yu Wenrui to stand in front of her, looking up at her taller and taller figure eagerly. , Cong fingered the patterns on her clothes, those were all stitched by Jing Yan.She sewed the clothes, so why didn't she sew in her own thoughts?

"Worriless, you have to remember, no matter where you are, I will always care about you..."

It was rare for Jing Yan to say such emotionally revealing words, and he felt a little uncomfortable.After a pause, she said again: "So, only you are safe, and my heart is safe."

Yu Wenrui lowered his head slightly, staring at her affectionately, his eyes almost softened into two puddles of water——

She really, can't wait, wants to have this beautiful woman in front of her.
