May you live in peace

Four days later, Bingzhou, Dingxiang County.

In mid-June, the wind in Hui was smooth and cloudless.

Li Da's carriage drove slowly on the street.Different from the prosperity and wealth of the capital, Dingxiang County is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the terrain is dangerous, and the development of agriculture is limited, but it has become an important military location.

Open the curtain and look at the people on the street.After the battle in Dingxiang, the streets were sparsely populated, and most of them only had tea shops open, buying tea money from passers-by.

After stopping the carriage, Takasugi ordered a pot of tea, looked at the guards who were constantly patrolling the city gate, and asked.

"Shopkeeper, how is the battle here?"

The shopkeeper looked at the two warily, Gao Shan seemed to feel that the question was a bit abrupt, and said again.

"Shopkeeper, we are the original from it, please rest assured the storekeeper."

He looked at the two of them again and again, seeing that they looked like the enemy, he replied while wiping the table.

"What else can I do? The war has been dragging on, and everyone is in a state of panic. The general has reported to the court many times. It's been so long, but there is no news at all."

Li Da looked at Gao Shan suspiciously, seeing that her expression also changed, and felt that something was a little strange.

The two rested for a while, then dropped a few copper coins, got into the carriage, and prepared to move on.

"Ada, go to the general camp."

"it is good."

The gate of the barracks was wide open, only a few soldiers were guarding it.Li Da stepped forward, took out a seal from his bosom, and handed it to the soldier.

"Please give this thing to the general."

Seeing that the visitor was cleanly dressed, with a dignified face, extraordinary demeanor, and the material of the seal was not simple, the soldiers did not dare to neglect, so they hurried in to report.

Gao Shan walked to Li Da's side, lowered his body and asked.

"Is that Xi's private seal?"

"Yes, the Eldest Princess is considerate, and I have given this seal to me long ago, so as not to cause us any trouble outside."

Gao Shan's eyebrows drooped and he didn't speak. It seemed that Xi was already prepared to protect himself, so he couldn't help curling his mouth slightly.

Seeing her shallow smile, Li Da didn't specify, looked at the general who rushed over, and said.

"coming."

"Humble duty to meet the two adults."

Takasugi said as he lifted up the general and wanted to bend over.

"General, let's go in and talk."

"well."

Seeing that the two people walking in front of them are not very ordinary, the general who has been fighting all year round naturally knows that the two are from the camp, so he asked.

"Dare to ask the two of you?"

"My name is Takasugi."

The general was taken aback, almost everyone knew Gao Shan's name, everyone knew it.A soldier who was born in a humble background, and later became a son-in-law. He has always been a legendary figure that soldiers in the army love to talk about.

Seeing his reaction, Gao Shan frowned even more, seeing that he had already announced his name, but he did not act.Moreover, it has been a few days since he assassinated the eldest princess, but they didn't arrest him because of it. Could it be that Bingzhou and the capital have been separated?

"Is General Zhengbei in the camp?" Gao Shan asked, she needs to figure out the situation now.

"Uh, yes, yes, the general is discussing the strategy of retreating the enemy with the soldiers."

Gao Shan was stunned, that day in the hall, the captain clearly said that the general had been 'assassinated' by himself, but today, when he checked, he heard that the general was still there and was discussing military affairs, it seems that some things are no longer expected As expected.

"I also hope that the general will take me to see the general."

"promise."

In the camp, Gao Shan and Li Da entered the tent, looked at He Jun, General Zhengbei who was sitting at the top, and saw that he was looking at the seal in his hand.

"The seal of the eldest princess, the general should recognize it."

He raised his head, looked at the somewhat familiar face, and asked.

"Who are you?"

Seeing that Nuo Da's tent didn't even have a guard, and in his own camp, he was also fully armed, Gao Shan already knew something was wrong.

"General He, my name is Gao Shan, and his name is Li Da."

"Consort?"

He Jun was taken aback, no wonder his eyes were so familiar.In the past, I often heard Fan Yu mention him and saw several portraits, but I didn't expect to meet him here.

Seeing that He Jun hurriedly stood up and wanted to salute himself, Gao Shan hurriedly stopped him and said to him.

"Gao Mou couldn't stand the general's gift. Besides, Gao Mou came to see the general to clarify one thing."

"What did the son-in-law say?"

Leaning forward a little, he lowered his body and asked.

"General, is someone watching you?"

As soon as He Jun raised his head, he looked at the young son-in-law in surprise. He had already known about it before he said anything.

"Don't be surprised, General, let Gao ask again, have you lost contact with the imperial court?"

"You..." He Jun was a little unbelievable. This person was beyond his expectation. Could it be that the eldest princess had realized that something was wrong and sent her son-in-law to Bingzhou?But, it's not right, how could the eldest princess know the real situation on her side.

Guessing what he was thinking, Gao Shan finally knew what Yin Pan's plan was.She guessed that the captain who came to the capital to deliver the letter must have been controlled by Yin Pan and fabricated his rebellion in order to win the military power of Bingzhou.As for why Xi sent letters many times to inquire about Bingzhou but did not reply, it seems that it was also because the letter was stopped halfway.And the person who stopped the letter must be the man placed by Yin Pan. This person must be in the barracks and is also responsible for monitoring and controlling He Jun.

Seeing Gao Shan looking at him seriously, with firm eyes, he nodded and said in a low voice.

"Yes, someone is indeed watching me. Four..."

Raising his hand to stop what he was going to say, Gao Shan looked at Li Da.

"Ada, look outside and don't let anyone approach you. Once there is a noise, you shake the curtain to signal."

"it is good."

Seeing Li Da go out to guard, Gao Shan signaled He Jun to continue.

"The general continues."

"Okay. In April, the north suddenly stepped up its operations and mobilized troops several times in a row, which seemed to be a big move. When I learned about the situation, I immediately issued an order secretly and set up multiple ambushes to prevent accidents. Unexpectedly, all my defense lines were bypassed by them, and all the guards close to the mountain were even raped. So I immediately sent someone to send a message to the capital, but there was no news after that. I sent secret letters to The eldest princess, but there is no news. Therefore, I know that I may be under surveillance."

Gao Shan rolled his eyes. In this way, the sudden large-scale mobilization of troops in the north should be after he assassinated Yin Ran.Could it be that the war in the north was initiated by Yin Pan, and his purpose was to unite with foreign countries to deal with Hao Guo, and then win the throne?

"Is there anyone who doubts the general?"

"No, the people in the camp are almost all single-handedly selected by me, and they have no second thoughts."

Suddenly remembering the Wuliang rebellion, Gao Shan replied.

"General, you must be cautious. If there is no careful work in the barracks, then the watcher must have entered with another identity. And the ones who can get the news are not only the soldiers, but also some people who are not outstanding but are indispensable." people."

He Jun understood what she meant, and realized that she might be referring to those characters. After expressing his understanding, he asked again.

"My son-in-law, how is the eldest princess?"

Knowing that he was worried about Xi's situation, and knowing that the news from the capital had not reached Bingzhou at all, Takasugi said.

"Don't worry, the general, the princess is fine. But now there are people controlling the capital. I came to Bingzhou to find out some things. I also hope that the general can end the war with the north as soon as possible and lead the army back to Beijing to rescue her."

Finally knowing the news in the capital and the seriousness of the matter, He Jun straightened his face, but he was also a little ashamed.Thinking of his current embarrassment, he was a little speechless.

"If the general trusts me, I will help the general."

He Jun was overjoyed, he knew from the deeds of the son-in-law back then that he was not an extraordinary person, if he is willing to help now, it would be great.

"Thank you."

In the deep night, the lights of the tents kept shining until dawn the next day.Outside the plateau in Saibei, separated by the natural barrier of the Central Plains and a few tribes, it still looks as before, majestic and boundless, but a little chilly.

In the capital, after more than ten days after the assassination of the son-in-law, the incident gradually disappeared.

Ever since Yin Xi took away Yin Pan's control over the imperial guards, she didn't make any further major moves. Instead, she lived in the palace every day, approving memorials, and was busy with Yin Ran's burial in the imperial tomb.And what worries her is that although Gao Shan left the city safely as she expected, this man actually found the hidden guards he sent to protect her, and made them all return to him and disappeared. where is she.On the other hand, Yin Pan also seemed to have no action, staying behind closed doors in his mansion for many consecutive days.Yin Xi guessed his next move, not knowing whether he would deal with him openly or secretly.

Looking at the letter from Yin Luo on the table, all preparations have been made for the arrangement outside the city. Once the jackals hiding in the dark can't help showing their fangs, it's the moment they fall into the trap.

Looking at the sunset glow that has completely set outside the window, the sky is blue mixed with black, and the sound of gongs for lighting up lights is heard around, which is long and ethereal.

Walking out of the main hall slowly, the majestic imperial city showed its dominance and arrogance. Looking at the road leading to the main hall in front of you, it was so long and there were so many obstacles.

The little eunuch guarding the door stepped forward to ask the princess what to order, but Yin Xi stopped him.

A few geese flew across the sky, making a few hasty calls.Yin Xi narrowed his eyes, looking at the swaying branches and leaves without wind blowing, the water on the lake was rippling, glowing with faint light, and it was deserted.

'Whoosh', the piercing sound of sharp objects passing through the air startled the animals that were about to hibernate.Yin Xi turned sideways, narrowly dodging the flying arrows.

"There are assassins, escort."

The sharp sound pierced all the silence around, and as soon as the sound fell, countless arrow feathers rushed towards Yin Xi's position.The suddenness of the incident gave Yin Xi no time to think about who sent these people and how they got in.

When the eunuchs and guards guarding the door pushed themselves into the palace door, there was already a pile of corpses outside, and the ground was stained red with blood, which was extremely dazzling.

"Kill, kill Yin Xi for me."

Hearing the voice from not far away, an army in armor rushed in with a sword in hand. Yin Xi recognized the leader at a glance. The one who was taken away everywhere, is now the captain of the city gate.

Unexpectedly, since this person rebelled at this time, seeing the well-trained soldiers swarming in, the thousands of troops who rushed into the palace made Yin Xi's secret guards and generals feel a little bit palmy. Squeeze sweat.

Yin Xixu stared at the scene in front of him, had the defense in the palace become so unbearable, and let them force the palace so grandiosely.

"Princess, you hide first."

Looking at the empty hall, you can almost see everything at a glance, hiding?Where to hide?
