As midwinter approached, the weather in Xichuan became more and more severe.

The wind and snow in the mountains are raging, the roads are slippery and the roads are dangerous, and the harsh environment makes marching in the field extremely difficult.

Yan Chongjin was wearing a white felt jacket, standing on a steep high ridge, almost blending with the snow-capped mountains behind him.He built a tent on the brow bone with his hands, and looked out to the canyon ahead.

This valley is narrow and long, curved like a bull's horn, with thousands of cliffs on both sides.Xichuan Mansion then built a fortress guarding the fortress, which is the only way to go east to Xichuan - Qingjiao Pass.

The walls of Qingjiao City stand ten feet high, all of which are built of huge brown stones.It can be said that one husband is in charge of the gate, and ten thousand husbands cannot open it.

It was noon at this time, and there was grayish-white cooking smoke rising from the sky above the stone fortress, it must be that someone set up a fire to make food.

Yan Chongjin's [-] cavalry raised their voices and feigned an attack from the front for four days.The main force of the infantry climbed over the mountains and circled behind the fort.

If there are no accidents, we will be able to raid and break through tonight.

He looked back at the group of soldiers who were as solemn as ice and snow, and said: "Everyone has worked hard these few days, work harder tonight, let's go to the city to have a warm meal!"

"The end will obey orders!"

"General!" A female scout ran in from outside the team and excitedly reported, "The subordinate caught a spy while lurking outside!"

"Caught alive? Well done, bring him here!" Yan Chongjin was planning a sneak attack, and he was really afraid that the enemy's sentry would find out his whereabouts.

However, when a prisoner swaggered up to him, Yan Chongjin's mask almost cracked.

"Father, why are you here?!" He looked at Chi Yue in astonishment and said, "Didn't you go to Nanhuang?"

Chi Yue brushed off the tiny snow grits on her sleeves, and said slowly: "Of course I'm done, I'll go back to the East Capital."

"Back to Dongdu? How did you get back?"

"Go straight east."

"Go straight to the east, and then you arrive at Xichuan?"

Chi Yue's eyes showed surprise: "This is Xichuan? No wonder it's so cold." He walked around the mountains for two months, but he didn't meet a living person, and he still thought he was in Nanhuang.

Yan Chongjin gave a dry cough, and looked at the blushing female soldier next to her: "How did you capture him?"

The other party replied embarrassingly: "When the subordinate was eating dry food, he jumped out of the forest by himself..."

"Then follow you all the way to ask for something to eat?"

"......Yes Yes."

Yan Chongjin looked up to the sky and sighed.

Such a father is really embarrassing.

Chi Yue tapped his forehead with a finger bone, knocking off the frozen snow on the mask.

"What's wrong with eating your dry food for my father? Do you know how long I have been eating and drinking for you?"

"That's not because of Lu Chi...don't fight!" Yan Chongjin held the opponent's fist, "Father, I'm leading soldiers to fight now, so show me some face."

Chi Yue glanced at the people around her, and teased with long and narrow eyes: "War? I still think you are leading a group of little girls to play house..."

Yan Chongjin knew that the other party had been a savage for several months, isolated from the world, and had no news, so he explained the reason for suppressing Xichuan's rebellion.

Chi Yue frowned when she learned that the Lin family had rebelled, and told her son the results of Nanhuang's party.

20 years ago, the Guimen Sect was eradicated by the imperial court, the suzerain Chi Yue feigned death, and the magic power withered.The Martial Arts League has recovered one hundred and eight demon sects one after another, but the demon sect in the Southern Wilderness has not been touched.Under the control of the Wu Clan, the Demon Cult's power has skyrocketed, and it has unified the various tribes in the Southern Wilderness. Now it has a faint momentum of reunifying the Demonic Way.

Sangman, the high priest of the witch tribe, is Chi Yue's old acquaintance. When he first saw this demon master come back from life, he thought he was going to do a big business, but he didn't know that the other party came to run errands for his son.

"According to the priest, last time you were infected with rotting blood Gu. This kind of Gu does not parasitize through oral administration, but enters the body from the wound on the host's body, and breaks eggs into worms in the blood vessels. The symptoms of the infected person are similar to tetanus, If you don't remove the Gu in time, you will definitely die within three days." Chi Yue stood under the Qiongshu Yinhua, her eyes were colder than snow, "Chongjin, do you know who killed you?"

Yan Chongjin's soles felt cold: "Could it be... the clothes and quilts given by His Majesty? Impossible! Liang Han will not harm me."

"I don't know if he has the intention of harming you, but he doesn't need to use insidious means such as voodoo to deal with you. The emperor is the best at buying people's hearts in the world. The little bean sprouts are very powerful."

"I'm up there."

Chi Yue smiled sarcastically: "Have you slept with a man a few times before you lose your mind?! You were on the verge of death because of him again and again, but you were beaten dozens of times and sent to prison. In the end, not only did you not complain, but you Willingly ran to Xichuan to work for him. An idiot like you can't find it with a lantern!"

"No matter how stupid I am, I still know the east, west, north, south... Ah!" A huge snowball hit his forehead without warning, Yan Chongjin covered his face and backed away, hit a pine tree behind him, and was instantly thrown down majesticly The rime was buried.

A depressed complaint came from the snow bag under the tree: "Father, can you not slap your face?!"

Chi Yue clapped her hands: "Yes, if you like to be spanked by me in front of the armed forces."

"..."

The soldiers standing in the distance stared blankly at the two of them with complex facial expressions.

The active female soldiers could not help but whisper to each other.

"Uncle looks good, but he's also scary..."

"Yeah, did our commander grow up with a violent education? It's so pitiful."

"Did the general wear a mask because his face was mutilated?"

"Is it disfigured? Doesn't His Majesty have a strong taste?"

"I heard that the emperor likes ugly ones, that's why he neglected the beautiful empress..."

The topic of gossip among women quickly spread to the sky, Yan Chongjin crawled out from the snowdrift, patted the snow on his body and said: "I'm afraid that this matter will have something to do with Tantai Ye, anyway, His Majesty will not harm me. "

"Prevention is essential, there is nothing impossible in this world." Chi Yue said coolly, "Your father looks harmless to humans and animals and has no brains, right? Didn't he stab me when he was an undercover agent?"

Yan Chongjin smiled: "You can be fooled by him because you are obsessed with sex, right?" After speaking, she turned her head abruptly, narrowly avoiding a murderous snowball.

"It is precisely because my father has suffered from masculinity that I don't want you to be confused about this matter! Can a night of sleep change the difference between the monarch and his ministers? Being with the king is like being with a tiger. Can you be so lucky next time? How much do you have?" Fate to play with him?"

Yan Chongjin suddenly woke up.

In his previous life, he had already lost his life for Liang Han, and this time, he naturally did not want to repeat the same mistakes.

Seeing that the other party finally listened, Chi Yue sighed, and said earnestly: "The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear, but the bystanders will never wake up the chess player. I know that your head is full of bean sprouts, and you can't see other people in your eyes. Take life and death seriously. But don't forget that you are the young master of the Yan family, the only son of Buli and me, and as a father, you don't want a white-haired man to give away a black-haired man!"

The last sentence pierced Yan Chongjin's heart like a knife, causing him to suffocate for a while.

What kind of heavy blow was it to the two fathers when he died in the battle in Nanhuang back then?

He only remembered that he was a subject of Dachun, but he forgot that this life not only belonged to the king, but also belonged to his family.He only remembered Liang Hao's bright eyes, but he forgot the [-] heroic spirits buried in the scorched land of the Southern Wilderness, who never closed their eyes.

It was hard to live a new life, there are so many things that need to be corrected, so many people need to be saved, how can you die so easily?What right does he have to not take care?

"Father, my son is not filial." Yan Chongjin immediately knelt down and knocked his head heavily in the snow, "I am too selfish and useless. Such an adult still makes you worry and frighten and work hard. My son must be careful and cherish everything in the future. life......"

"Take a string in your own heart, just don't be dazzled by that little emperor." Chi Yue flicked her sleeves, "Okay, get up. lest your subordinates think that I am relying on the old to bully their commander."

Yan Chongjin stood up and said: "Father, did the Wu Clan reveal who controls the Putrescence Gu?"

Chi Yue shook her head: "Rotten blood Gu is not uncommon in the Devil's Cult. There are many people who can lay Gu, and it will inevitably spread to the Central Plains."

After the old leader Lei Xuan died suddenly by mistakenly taking the longevity Gu, Xianyu, a member of the Wu clan, turned around and took over the teaching power.Some of the old people who lost power in the Thunder Department surrendered, and some fled in all directions. Many insect masters fled to the Central Plains. I'm afraid this matter should be checked from the clothes and quilts.

Yan Chongjin naturally suspected Tantai Ye.

But although this person is not familiar with him, nor is he hostile, he even recommended him to Liang Han.The Yan family and the Tantai family are both aristocratic families, and have the same interests to a certain extent, so there is no reason to target themselves.

Just as he was resting his chin in thought, a gust of cold wind blew through his body, and icy snowflakes penetrated into his neckline, Yan Chongjin suddenly shivered.

wind?wind......

God, it turned out to be like this!

He turned his head and asked Chi Yue: "Father, if I died in prison last time, what would you do?"

Chi Yue replied without batting an eyelid: "Kill the king."

"Sure enough." Yan Chongjin said horribly, "The symptoms of putrid blood gu are very similar to tetanus. I was injured at the time, and I was beaten by Liang Hao. If you die from the gu, you will definitely pay the bill on his head."

"The person who played the voodoo harmed me is second. His real purpose is to kill people with a knife, and to use my life to drive a wedge between the emperor and the Yan family. The person he really wants to get rid of is actually Liang Han!" Tan Taiye actually hid such a thing in the court hall For many years, the more Yan Chongjin thought about it, the more frightened he became, "Is the Tantai family planning to rebel? Then... I have brought out the soldiers now, will there be any changes in Dongdu?"

Chi Yue also felt serious when she heard it, her daughter-in-law is still in the imperial city.

"How about this, don't scare yourself, and fight in Xichuan with peace of mind, go back and see the situation for your father."

"But..."

"Don't be wordy, you are the commander of the first army, and you still want to leave these girls and run away?" Chi Yue waved her hand and walked forward swaggeringly.

Yan Chongjin looked at his back and said worriedly: "Father, I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, even if someone sneaks in, I can at least rescue your father, grandpa, grandma and your milk donkey."

"but..."

"Okay, if the bean sprouts are not dead, save them for the sake of cookies."

Yan Chongjin took a deep breath and shouted unbearably: "But you really went in the wrong direction!"

......

The majestic Eastern Capital City is like an eagle trapped in a cage, with messy wings and crippled beak and claws, but it still has ambition and sharp eyesight, which makes people daunting and even chills.

After being besieged by the four battalions for half a month, the Forbidden Army of the Imperial City was at the end of its strength, and everyone was fighting hard to stick to their posts.Under the command of Qian Louyang and Chu Qing, this last line of defense is like an old man on the verge of death, who is still standing firm in his last days, even though the situation is over.

The craftsmen in the city are rushing to make ammunition and bows and arrows day and night, but the speed of manufacturing can never match the speed of consumption. The inventory of the arsenal will soon run out, and the soldiers have to use rolling stones and kerosene to resist the enemies who climbed up the city wall.

Qian Louyang received the news today that the rolling stones and giant trees will also be exhausted, and the stone bricks and beams on the houses have already begun to be demolished in the city.

The situation in the capital is precarious, but the feudal towns all over the country choose to wait and see.Even though the imperial order had been sent out of the city by all means, none of them came to serve the king.Either they didn't respond, or they used all kinds of excuses to prevaricate. The only one who agreed to send troops was Beishu, but because of Lu Yao, they couldn't arrive for a long time.

Among the hundreds of officials, there were those who couldn't hold back and wanted to surrender, but their heads were beheaded to sacrifice the flag just at the first sign.Looking at the head hanging in front of the Anwu Gate, Man Chaowen and Wu trembled, and soon became as quiet as a chicken.

Liang Han sat in the imperial study with a headache, looking at the officials coldly.

Damn it, outside is a group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, and inside there are house thieves with ulterior motives.After this catastrophe, see if I can deal with you!

However, he must hold his breath now, because he still has to rely on these people to carry out the imperial order.

In just half a month, there were no fewer than fifty government orders issued by Liang Han himself.

Due to the disparity in strength between the offensive and defensive sides, in order to make up for the manpower vacancies, he had to consider recruiting the militia.

This is obviously a deadly business, not to mention wealthy families, even ordinary small households would not want their children to take risks.Liang Han thought about it again and again, and issued an amnesty order: Anyone who enlists in the army can be exonerated from the three crimes of lowly slavery.

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and compared with a heavy reward, the temptation for salted fish to turn over is greater.The [-] militiamen quickly gathered together to guarantee the logistics in terms of manpower.

After the closure of the city, the price of food and medicine in the eastern capital also skyrocketed. In order not to shake the hearts of the people, Liang Han had to find ways to stabilize the price.

He was discussing with the Minister of the Ministry of Households about opening a warehouse to release grain, Xia Rong came in and said, "Your Majesty, the leader of the martial arts alliance, Yan Buli, asks to see you."

"pass."

Liang Han said to the Minister of the Household Department: "Tomorrow, I will make a list of the detailed rules and submit a copy to me."

"The minister obeys the order."

"You all leave."

"I'm waiting to retire."

It was not the first time for Yan Buli to enter the imperial study, but the last time he had an audience was Emperor Xuan, and now it was a young emperor.

Liang Han was dressed in a yellow robe embroidered with dragon patterns, which set off his sharp features and majestic charm.When the army was besieging the city, he was still able to sit upright behind the desk, showing a bit more magnanimity than the old emperor.

Tsk, my son is quite discerning.

"The grass people kowtow to my emperor..."

"Master Yan, you don't need to be too polite, please hurry up."

Yan Buli is Yan Chongjin's father. Although there is a difference in respect and inferiority, Liang Hao, as a modern person, still doesn't like him kneeling down on himself.After all, the other party is his elder, what kind of words does it sound like a father-in-law kneels down on his wife... Ah no, it's outrageous for a father-in-law to kneel down to his son-in-law!

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yan Buli cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the dog may soon be in the capital."

"What?!" Liang Han was taken aback, "I didn't send him a letter?"

"It was the grassroots faction who found out the letter from the city newspaper. Counting the days, they should have received it."

Liang Han sighed: "He is far away in Xichuan, and he only has [-] soldiers in his hands. When he comes back, he can only hit a stone with an egg. Why bother?"

"But even if we don't deliver the letter, the news will reach Xichuan sooner or later. When he hears the rumors and doesn't know the details of the imperial city, he may feel even more panicked."

"It's still the lord who is more thoughtful than me."

Yan Buli smiled and said: "My son, I know a little bit about it. Baba has loved to study the art of war since he was a child, and his temperament is considered stable. If he knew that the fourth battalion was besieging the city, he would not rush to bring 2 people back to aid."

Liang Han nodded and said, "Did he reply the letter?"

"Supposedly the reply wasn't that fast, but today someone threw a token into Bifu." Yan Buli took out a white jade pendant from his bosom, it was Yan Chongjin's Yanzi Linglong Pendant.

The author has something to say: Liang Hao took the jade pendant in his hand, stroked it, turned it to the back, and saw eight small characters as thin as mosquito feet engraved on the jade:

The sun rises and the snow falls, Mr. Dongmenmian.
