Just after Sun Buli and Sang Niang left, two heads slowly poked out from the rock gap in the sea cliff.

"You follow Sun Buli, and I will reply to the Lord. Everything is proceeding as planned."

"Yes."

The two shadows separated quickly, facing two different directions, and disappeared into the thickest night before dawn.

It is thousands of miles away from the West Sea to the capital.If you want to return to the capital as soon as possible, you can only take the waterway, go eastward along the Lingjiang River, and reach the capital of Daling. The new emperor Yin Dongyou named it—Pingan City.

Decades ago, the young late emperor Yin Han paid homage to Nian Wanniang, the daughter of the Taishi, as a general.It is said that the first emperor Yin Han made an absurd decree to marry the female general and the eldest princess Yin Ning. Unexpectedly, before Nian Wanniang returned triumphantly, the eldest princess jumped down from the top of the city and fell into the moat. Can't find it.

Nian Wanniang held a heavy army, and in order to appease her, Yin Han gave her an iron coupon of the Danshu, saying that he would never doubt the general in his life.Although Wanniang was brave this year, she was also a person who kept her promise. She also promised in the court that she would guard the mausoleum in this life and serve the emperor for the rest of her life.

Nian Wanniang was never married, and relying on her power, the first emperor named her a first-rank general, and specially gave her army the name Yanling Army.In the army, there are four second-rank generals in the east of the town, west of the town, south of the town, and north of the town. Each second-rank general commands [-] soldiers and horses and sets up camps in the southeast, northwest, and north suburbs of the capital.

Nian Wanniang already holds 3 troops of the Nian family's direct lineage, plus the soldiers and horses of the four second-rank generals under her seat. She can take down the capital at any time and sit on the dragon chair of the emperor.The imperial guards of the first emperor and the standing army of the capital were no more than [-] horses. For any emperor, he would only be afraid of Nian Wanniang, and would not have the so-called trust at all.

Emperor Piansheng was a strange person. He never had any doubts about Nian Wanniang, and even personally bestowed a marriage on him, marrying Zhenxi General Wei Chi Rongxi to the crown prince.One sentence he repeatedly said to the prince was - to control the general of the year, there are only two words, and there is no doubt.There is another sentence, the first emperor said it to the crown prince before his death, the crown prince was speechless for a while, when he came back to his senses, Yin Han had already passed away.

After Crown Prince Yin Dongyou ascended the throne, he is now the new emperor, and General Zhenxi has also become today's empress.Strange to say, I thought that the new emperor would not favor the Yanling army of General Nian like the previous emperor did, but who would have thought that he would favor the Yanling army even more than the previous emperor.When other civil servants talked about the new emperor, most of them sighed and shook their heads, only lamenting that the queen's pillow style is so powerful that it has fascinated the new emperor's mind.

At this time, the eyes of the officials would involuntarily fall on the new emperor's younger brother Wei Wang Yin Donghai—this is a gentle and elegant young man, good at poetry and prose, gentle in nature, especially good at rhythm, and is often called Ya Wang by the people.

If the new emperor is the king of Wei, after Nian Wanniang dies, the Yanling army will be leaderless, and maybe one day they can be disbanded, and the uneasy feeling in every official's heart that the female ministers are in power can also disappear without a trace.

Just because the courtiers had such thoughts, I don't know which adult took the lead, and secretly set up a swallow hunting alliance in the capital.So in recent years, incidents of assassinating Nian Wanniang and her four generals have happened occasionally, but Mr. Tingwei can't find any trace of the murderer in every case.

Since they couldn't find out, Nian Wanniang naturally didn't want to interfere too much with Ting Wei's investigation, so she could only order the four generals to assassinate carefully.

Half a year ago, General Zhendong fell off his horse suddenly during his daily patrol. He would not have died, but for some reason, the medicinal herbs were mixed with poisonous weeds, which penetrated into the flesh and blood. On the sick bed.

The queen was pregnant recently, but there were still one or two frightening incidents of wild cats, and she almost had a miscarriage.The emperor was very concerned about this matter, and since then he has been almost inseparable from her. Even if he is going to court, he must take the queen with him, let the queen sit under the dragon platform, within his sight, and even eat and drink every day. , must be the same as the queen.

The life of General Zhendong and General Zhenxi is not easy, and the life of General Zhennan and General Zhenbei is not much better.

The Louchuan was driving along the Lingjiang River to the direction of the capital's Ping'an. The night breeze was cool, and the moonlight shone on the "Xie" flag on the Louchuan. It seemed that the words on the flag were blood red.

"It's my turn, heh." Zhennan General Xie Nanyan picked up the decoction, frowned and drank it in one gulp, then smiled lightly.

Standing in front of her was the man with eyes like copper bells last night, he was her left lieutenant, Mu Ah.

Mu'a shook his head and said in a solemn voice, "I will have a different opinion on this matter at the end."

Xie Nanyan's smile became even stronger. She squinted her eyes and played with the medicine bowl in her hand, and said lazily, "Tell me."

"If the people from the Swallow Hunting League want to kill you, the barbed thorns should not be quenched with numb poison, but highly poisonous." Mu'a said seriously, "Besides, if you can kill the general with one blow People, it is impossible to just hit the general's vest, even if the barbed caltrop is not poisoned, as long as it hits the dead point in the back of the head, the general will not be alive."

Xie Nanyan nodded with a smile, "According to what you said, I want to thank this person for saving my life." After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes to look at Mua, "But, since you don't want my life, why do you still pretend to be my wife?" In a wooden box, dragged into the sea?"

This is also what Mua couldn't understand the most.

Seeing that Mua couldn't speak for a while, Xie Nanyan carefully put down the medicine bowl in her hand, "This bowl is still useful, and I can use it next time I drink the medicine, so I can't drop it for a while." Saying that, she Slowly stood up, walked to the side of the low table, and picked up the scroll on the low table.

On the scroll was a beautiful woman, with eyebrows like willow leaves, eyes like autumn water, dressed in fluttering white clothes, coming in Lingbo, as if she would go away with the wind at any time.

On the bank of the beauty's jade feet stepping on the water, there is a line of small characters - a gift that never leaves in mid-spring.

"This junior sister, Sun Buli, is really pretty." Xie Nanyan praised lightly, and handed the scroll to Mua, "Look, don't those eyebrows look alike?"

"Who do you look like?" Mua took the scroll and looked at it carefully, but couldn't see it for a while.

Xie Nanyan smiled wryly: "If you really want my life, why would you drag me into the sea when someone is picking pearls? How could you leave me a dagger so that I can struggle to save myself?"

"General, why are you talking back?" Mu'a was even more confused.

Xie Nanyan flicked Mua's forehead, took the scroll from Mua's hand, and covered the lower half of the beauty's face with the other hand, "Look, who does it look like?"

Mua took a closer look, and felt familiar, "It's... the one I knocked out..."

"That's right, that's the one Master asked us to find." Xie Nanyan twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled, "I watched her for a long time last night, and I'm sure I won't admit it." He continued excitedly, "Think about it, after the wooden box falls into the sea, the sea water will definitely pour into the wooden box after a long time. If I can't break free, I will die. Why is it such a coincidence that I am not one step too slow or one step faster? , I was rescued? The person who saved me happened to be the person we were looking for, don't you think it's funny?"

Mu'a's back felt cold when he heard it, and he couldn't help but laugh.

"General, you have to guard against it!"

Xie Nanyan squinted her eyes and smiled, "Defense is impossible, besides, I have never been a passive person." Her eyes gradually lit up, and she said word by word: "I am not a prey, where do they want me to go?" , where should I go?" The smile gradually disappeared, and Xie Nanyan only had the word "serious" left on his face.

"Girl, the water in this section of the Lingjiang River is the most turbulent. If you jump in, you will only die!"

Suddenly, the voices of patrol soldiers sounded outside the cabin.

"Look, this girl can't be underestimated, she sneaked onto the deck." Xie Nanyan boasted with a smile, then took a robe and put it on, and walked out with a smile.

Mu'a quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, he knew that Xie Nanyan was going to deal with this girl.

At this time, Yunzhou was sitting on the railing of the bow. She poked her head and glanced at the turbulent river below the boat. The back of her head was still sore from being beaten last night. When she poked her head, she couldn't help shrinking back, warning that it was approaching. The patrolling soldier said, "Go one step further, I'll really jump!"

"Jump."

The crisp hoarseness in the voice was very familiar, Yun Zhou looked over at the prestige - it was her!

Xie Nanyan changed into a clean snow-white official uniform. At this time, the hem of the black robe was fluttering, and all the black hair was tied into a long ponytail. The hair hangs down on the back, just pressing down on the black robe.

She leisurely waved to Mua the Minotaur, and Mua brought her a grand chair.

Yun Zhou looked at her carefully, only to find that her eyes were clear and bright after they were no longer blurred, like the North Star in the sky.

"It's good that you're fine..." After Yun Zhou finished speaking, he finally realized that the woman just let her jump off.

Why is it so vicious?

Yun Zhou suppressed her smile instantly, and said with a cold face: "I kindly wanted to save you, but you kidnapped me. If uncle finds out, he will die in a hurry!"

"Oh?" Xie Nanyan didn't intend to explain, she ordered Mu'a to bring a cup of hot tea, and while fiddled with the floating tea leaves with the lid, she said calmly, "You jump off tonight, your uncle is not in a hurry to die, but Pissed off."

"You!" Yun Zhou suddenly regretted, why did he save her with Sang Niang last night?

Xie Nanyan met her eyes with a smile, "Isn't it? I didn't understand anything, so I ran to jump into the river and committed suicide. Idiots wouldn't do that, would they?" His brows raised slightly, as if provocative, "One, Come down obediently and go back to sleep. Second, I will ask Mua to help you and push you down, and it will be settled once and for all.”

Yun Zhou blushed anxiously, "You... don't you have a third choice?!"

"Yes." Xie Nanyan's smile suddenly became a little "scary", she stood up leisurely, and gave Mua a wink, "Use a rope."

"No!" Mua smiled and picked up the rope coiled on the side of the boat.

Yun Zhou asked in horror: "You... what are you going to do?" Before he finished speaking, the rope in Mu'a's hand seemed to come alive, and instantly wrapped around Yun Zhou's waist.

"Go down."

Xie Nanyan didn't know when she came to her, and after speaking lightly, she pushed suddenly, Yunzhou's center of gravity became unstable, and he fell towards the Lingjiang River.

"Ah! Killing—cough cough!" Before Yun Zhou could finish speaking, the rope on the waist pole was tightened suddenly, which made her unable to bear a series of violent coughing sounds.

Xie Nanyan poked her head and giggled, "This is the third one you chose, now I'll give you another chance, one or two?"

"One...cough cough...one..." Yun Zhou had to give in first. Living is more important than anything else!

However, Yun Zhou had only spoken half of what she had said, and Mua loosened her hand slightly, and her head plunged into the river, and was washed coldly by the river water.

After Mua pulled her onto the side of the boat, Yun Zhou stared at his red eyes and asked solemnly: "I obviously chose one...why you...cough cough..."

Xie Nanyan didn't look at her, but smiled sideways: "One is to wash your face and then come up, and the other is to take a shower and then come up, you choose without listening to me, you can't blame me."

"You scoundrel!" Yun Zhou yelled aggrievedly.

"Huh?" Xie Nanyan turned her face suddenly, and the "scary" smile appeared again, and she took a step closer to Yun Zhou.

Yun Zhou subconsciously took a step back.

Unexpectedly, Xie Nanyan just said in a soft voice, "I like it, will you bite me?"
