Proudly follow your heart

"Cang Ao!" Jun Zhanran shouted.

Nangong Cang Ao did not make a sound, as if the sword blade had not been drawn on his body, and he had escaped the attack range of the sword move in a wrong step.

On the opposite side, Shangguan Yu, the leader of the Xia Kingdom, came out from behind the tree and wounded Nangong Cang Ao, known as the Eagle Commander, with a sword. If one person dies, the battle is over! Come on, let's have a showdown!"

Whether it is Nangong Cangao or Jun Zhanran, even if even one person dies here, it will be a fatal blow to Lin Nan's soldiers.

Some people didn't pay attention to Shangguan Yu's invitation to fight.

"How are you? Are you okay?" Nangong Cang Ao asked with concern.

"I should ask you this question!" Jun Zhanran frowned, and his tone became cold.

"Zhan Ran Mo Qi, look," the man in front of him smiled and raised his right shoulder, "It's just a flesh wound."

There was a streak of blood dripping from the shoulder blade on the back, which was nothing serious at all, but for Nangong Cang Ao, as long as he couldn't die for a while, it wouldn't be serious.

Jun Zhanran was a little displeased with his carelessness, "You—"

Nangong Cangao changed his expression, "As long as you are well, I won't get hurt, and you are acting like this yourself, so why blame me for not being careful?"

He raised his eyebrows, his words were obviously provocative, he was dissatisfied with Jun Zhanran for torturing his own body in such a random way every time, starting from the first thing about burying the needle.

It's not that Jun Zhanran can't hear it.

"I just want to know how much you care about me..." The figure walked by with a low voice.

Nangong Cang Ao didn't hear it very clearly, but the meaning in the words was clear, and he couldn't help frowning and smiling again.

On the other side, Jun Zhanran had already walked in front of Shangguan Yu, "It's not bad that you can lay an ambush here and strike first."

He said it was not bad, but there seemed to be no anger in his eyes, neither joy nor anger.

It seemed that he was the king who judged everything, and he was just looking forward to the emperor's appreciation. After doing so much, he finally got a "not bad".

It was not the first time Shangguan Yu saw this so-called King Zhan, but it was the first time he looked at him so closely, and suddenly had this ridiculous illusion.

"The world is in chaos, several countries are at war, Jun Zhanran, you want to kill your brother and seize the throne for your own selfishness! And you, Nangong Cang Aoning, committed treason and you also want to help him rebel! Have you ever thought about the people in the world? Have you thought about other things?" Countries? I am Shangguan Yu here today, if I want to harm Daxia, I must kill me first!"

Raising the long sword in his hand, the middle-aged Shangguan general was full of awe.

"Kill you? It's actually not difficult." Jun Zhanran turned his eyes from the wound on Nangong Cangao's shoulder blade.

He was about to go forward but was stopped by someone, "General Shangguan was born in a poor family, and he has always been unsuccessful in the court. This time, he was ordered to face danger. If it weren't for the high-ranking officials, he wouldn't dare to show up. It's not your turn to lead the army."

Nangong Cangao took out the wound medicine from his bosom and handed it to Jun Zhanran, "General Shangguan is dedicated to the country, but unfortunately, you are just a chess piece used by Huangde to delay the war."

Seeing them, one spoke in a calm manner, and one applied medicine to bandage the other's wound in front of him, Shangguan Yu's face turned ashen, did the two of them take him seriously!

"Stop talking nonsense!" He should have made good use of Nangong Cang Ao's injury, but for some reason, he didn't dare to act immediately.

Is it because of Nangong Cangao's calm and confident attitude, or because of Jun Zhanran's arrogant eyes?Shangguan Yu himself didn't know.

"For the sake of your concern for the people, let me ask you, how do you know our marching route?" Holding a knife in one hand, Nangong Cang Ao asked casually, as if he was not worried about whether he would answer or not.

Shangguan Yu didn't expect that, after a pause, he actually answered, "I am ordered by His Majesty to intercept here."

How did Huang De know their marching route? !Jun Zhanran and Nangong Cangao looked at each other, and they both thought of one answer, which they had already guessed.

"Let's go." Jun Zhanran nodded around Nangong Cangao's wrist, and the two of them just walked away.

"You guys come back!" Shangguan Yu was anxious!What about the invitation to fight just now?They really didn't take it seriously at all? !

They didn't care about Shangguan Yu at all, and they never took him as a hostage. They just left. Nangong Cang Ao stood on a high place and let out a long cry.

Shangguan Yu originally wanted to take advantage of his unpreparedness, but unexpectedly, under the leadership of Nangong Cangao, these Linnan soldiers had already trained the ability to remain calm. Yingshuai has always acted eclecticly. At a loss.

Although they were attacked while they were resting, the soldiers quickly adjusted their state without any panic. Shangguan Yu Yuezhan was more frightened. What a strong army Xia should be now!

And these people were originally soldiers and horses borrowed by Rinnan.

This battle did come out of nowhere, but in the end it did not go as Shangguan Yu wished. He injured Nangong Cang Ao, but did not receive any retaliation, which was beyond his expectation.

Are these two people arrogant, noble, ambitious, or for the sake of the people?Shangguan Yu was completely confused.

In the end, the interception was unsuccessful.

Shangguan Yu dispatched troops to set up an encirclement circle in addition to his first group of troops, but was easily broken through. Nangong Cang Ao and Jun Zhanran seemed to be throwing away useless things, and they didn't even look at him left.

At this time, Shangguan Yu suddenly understood that their purpose was not to damage his troops, nor did they care about winning or losing at this moment.

Their goal is only one -

Imperial City, Shundu.

Under their leadership, Lin Nan's soldiers fought and marched, and were chased by the troops led by Shangguan Yu all the way to their destination.

Shangguan Yu pursued closely, secretly worried, and now the rebel army seemed to be being chased by him, but as long as he saw the situation clearly, he would understand that it was not he who was driving them away, but that group of people were going all the way to Xia Guo's confidantes. land!

If the imperial capital falls, if Emperor Pingkang is taken down, and the imperial capital falls, what is the use of bringing more troops to catch up?

The closer it was to Shundu, not only Shangguan Yu was nervous, but also Jun Zhanran and Nangong Cangao became more cautious.

On this day, they stopped halfway because the people from Zhanjiazhuang sent another urgent message.

Zhanli's business is very big, where there are merchants and hawkers, there is his intelligence network. Thinking of the choice to form an alliance with Zhanjiazhuang, Jun Zhanran feels that he has not chosen the wrong person.

"Lu Feng, what did your king say before you left?" In the temporary tent, a man in long clothes and sleeves was looking at the letter in his hand, with a white cloth wrapped around his wrist, holding the letter. His hands are as steady as a rock.

Lu Feng thought for a while, Junxiu's face was blank, "The villain doesn't remember what else my king said."

"Did he say that he would send reinforcements?" On the other side, Nangong Cang Ao was holding a wine cup. In order to keep himself sober, he usually did not drink alcohol on the march, and only had a rare drink when he was resting.

Hearing his question, Lu Feng suddenly realized, "The villain asked Mr. Xiao Hu a while ago to send me a letter when someone went to the posthouse. My king must have read the letter and knew that King Zhan is in danger now. The reinforcements have not yet arrived, and there are chasing troops, so..."

"I didn't say that Xi Su came for reinforcements, you know?" Eagle eyes raised, and their eyes fell on Lu Feng.

Lu Feng was taken aback and reassured, "Since Yingshuai asked this question, it must be my king who sent reinforcements here. As an envoy, isn't the little one here just to judge the situation? And I, Wang Yingming, Employers are not suspicious, seeing what I said in the letter, they sent soldiers and horses to help."

Lu Feng seemed timid, but his mind turned quickly, and he answered like this. After a while, Nangong Cangao took out another letter.

"You are right. Here is the letter sent by the king of Xisu. Because of your advice, he sent tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to reinforce. But I want to ask you. Does your king know that if you want Breaking into the border of Xia Kingdom is not that simple."

The letter was in his hand, Nangong Cangao's eyes were deep, although his expression was gentle, Lu Feng felt that the underlying thoughts were difficult to discern, and after thinking about it, he dared not speak indiscriminately, "At present, the Xia army is at a loss, they want to stop us, but also want to attack us." I'm afraid...it won't be easy to stop the reinforcements sent by my king, right?"

Not only is it not easy, it is as difficult as climbing the sky.

This battle has been going on for a long time, which of the city lords in the Xia Kingdom is not desperate to protect themselves, even if they have soldiers and horses in their hands, who is willing to use the bargaining chip of self-protection as a weapon?

As long as it doesn't threaten the safety of each city, and it's just passing by, there must be no serious problems.

Jun Zhanran rubbed the paper under his hands. The Suyue Menghua used to be used for calligraphy and painting is now more used to describe terrain and arrange troops. reaction."

"Princess Beijiang is in our hands, so naturally it will not hinder us from doing things, and Beijiang is far away from Xia Kingdom, even if Queen Beijiang wants to send reinforcements, it will be too late." Fingertips on the table, Nangong Cang Ao drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

I only heard a "pop" on the table, "It won't be long before we know the result."

This result refers to the result of the battle, the result of who lives and who dies, when Nangong Cang Ao said it, he could only hear the eagerness to try.

Lu Feng lowered his head, not letting the man on the opposite side notice the seriousness in his eyes. As long as these two men work together, it seems that there is nothing in the world that they cannot get.

If the Kingdom of Xia is destroyed, a new Great Xia will be born. At that time, what will happen to the rest of them?

Now they support Jun Zhanran to overthrow Emperor Pingkang. On the day when he comes to rule the world, even if the four countries are no longer vassal states, they don’t need to pay tribute every year, and they don’t need to be monitored by the Xia army, but in fact, Daxia is still the most powerful country in the world. big country.

In the end, wouldn't Xizu, as the four small countries, still have to rely on others?

Thinking of this, Lu Feng raised his head helplessly, and was shocked to find that both Jun Zhanran and Nangong Cangao were looking at him, and quickly coughed a few times, "Uh, the villain suddenly thought, what happened to Miss Tiemei? She let it out?"

After that day, Tiemei was put under arrest. For Xiao Hu's sake, Yin Jiu didn't ask questions, but Lu Feng always cared about her.

"Are you worried?" Jun Zhanran asked for some unknown purpose.

"I am also from another country. The villain knows that it is not easy to be a minister. She must be a king, so I want to intercede for her. I hope that King Zhan will give her a lighter sentence." Lu Feng's words were sincere, but he didn't know what his words were. For the public, somewhat private.

Nangong Cang Ao's eyes turned, he did not speak for a while, and poured himself another cup.

A hand came to take his wine glass, so he added some more to the glass, "I won't be angry with your hand from now on, you take care of it for me, if it happens again, I'll just tie it with a rope .”

"I have a sense of propriety." Jun Zhanran waved his hand, the wine was brewed with warmed pear blossoms, and the aroma of the wine was intoxicating. After drinking, he exhaled and watched the white mist disperse in front of his eyes.

The light from outside penetrated the mist and shone on his face. On that thinner and more defined face, the black eyelashes and jet-black eyes appeared so dim in the mist, like the deepest star, sometimes flashing Too bright.

Nangong Cang Ao looked a little lost in thought, and couldn't help leaning over, his warm lips fell on those eyes.

Jun Zhanran's eyelashes moved, and he vaguely saw Lu Feng's curious and envious eyes. He didn't think this scene was weird, and he didn't think there was anything wrong, he just watched it.

"You go down."

"Yes, I will step back now, little one." After finishing speaking, Lu Feng withdrew the curtain for them after exiting.

"You're really worried about me." Raising his wrist, Jun Zhanran never deliberately hurt himself again since he understood his inner thoughts.

"Nonsense, why don't you worry." Nangong Cang Ao kissed his hand, "You understand?" He suddenly asked.

"Understood." Jun Zhanran replied.

"Anyway, no one will care about your life or death. Anyway, you live in this world for revenge. Anyway, no one cares whether you are alive or dead, or half alive. Therefore, it doesn't matter how you torture yourself, as long as you can get revenge That's enough—" Narrating Jun Zhanran's heart, Nangong Cangao seemed to have discovered it a long time ago, but he didn't say it until now.

"Extreme, isn't it?" Jun Zhanran snorted.

"You can only live if you are cruel enough to yourself. This kind of thinking is not wrong for you at that time, but don't forget, you have me later," Jun Zhanran's palm was tightly grasped , "With me here, you still do this, do you look down on me?!"

Speaking of this, Nangong Cang Ao's tone was filled with anger.

"With me here, you are still torturing yourself like this. Do you not trust me? Or do you not put me in your heart? My feelings are not important to you at all?!" If you don't make it clear to him, you may not know when he will want to Recklessly, Nangong Cang Ao intentionally put on an angry and disappointed face.

Jun Zhanran was really anxious, "No! Of course not!"

He frowned tightly, and heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the tenderness in Nangong Cang Ao's eyes, "You bastard."

He punched him, and Nangong Cangao caught his fist, "Don't forget that I am a sick person, and the wound is not healed yet, can you be gentle?"

The wound Shangguan Yu drew on his back was not deep, but the cold weather slowed down the healing speed.

"He hurt you, I should have killed him then." Jun Zhanran's face turned cold.

"But you didn't, and I didn't do it either." Nangong Cangao looked at him and said, "Because he's still useful."

Jun Zhanran could only nod his head, his eyes met, everyone understood why, sometimes he was too rational and had to destroy his emotions. Fortunately, the other party was also rational and could understand what he was thinking.

"You have already started to think in the way of an emperor." Nangong Cangao said with approval.

"Aren't you the same?" Jun Zhanran replied after glancing at him.
