As soon as Xie Xuan returned to Yiyang, he rushed to inspect the defense of the barracks again. Seeing that everything was in order and the army was determined, he smiled and nodded to Liu Yu who came up to him and said, "It seems that yesterday's victory really boosted morale."

Liu Yu couldn't help being secretly delighted by Xie Xuan's praise, and couldn't bear to say more, "It's just that I didn't expect that a mere Murong Yong could be exchanged for a Luoyang City. Emperor Yan is a fool?"

"Wrong. He can't give up on Murong Yong, and he is eager to stabilize the situation and go back to Chang'an to take care of the housework. He can only make quick decisions and get whatever he wants." Xie Xuan kept walking towards his handsome tent, just shook his head and smiled—— —Liu Yu naturally didn't know that Ren Zhen was willing to give not only Luoyang, the eastern capital, but also the Jade Seal of the Nation, which all heroes in the world dream of. "If it weren't for their internal strife, how could we take advantage of the situation and take advantage of it?"

At this moment, Yang Ping, the young servant who has been serving close to him, has come out holding Lan Tang, Xie Xuan removed his armor and bowed slightly to clean his face and hands - this is the custom of Wang Xie's family, even if he marches and fights, there is no interruption , Liu Yu was born in a poor family, so he didn't take it seriously, so he sat down first: "In my opinion, Murong Yong is a powerful general, even if Emperor Yan is willing to cede Luoyang and other places, you can't easily send him back .”

Xie Xuan handed the soft towel to Yang Ping, then lifted the robe and sat down, turned to Liu Yu and said, "You have always been quick-witted, so you must have clever ideas."

Liu Yu hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "He is a life-saving talisman, of course he must be firmly held in his hands. It would be good if he can take root in Henan in the future; if one day we want to withdraw to Jiangzuo, whether it is handed over to Murong Chui or Murong Yong, we You can sit on the ground and raise the price, isn’t it a great deal.”

Xie Xuan looked at Liu Yu with a smile that was not a smile: "Sure enough, I am a slave. This is to make me a person who does not trust me, and I will be laughed at by the world from now on?"

Like a bolt from the blue, Liu Yu hastily knelt down and confessed his mistake - Xie Xuan was in his heart - he should be like a heavenly man in the hearts of all Beifu army officers and soldiers. He has been in the army for many years, and he has been born and died. Why is it in front of him Standing out from the crowd, but now offending him because of an unintentional remark, the loss outweighs the gain!

Xie Xuanqu pointed to the case, and said slowly: "Killing on the battlefield means life and death, fighting with all your might, and is no different from others. Remember that a gentleman can do something and not do something!"

Liu Yu was sweating profusely, but he prostrated himself on the ground to plead guilty. After he retreated, Yang Pingfang turned around from behind and curled his lips, "Sure enough, he's a street boy!"

Xie Xuanben was also thinking about Liu Yu's matter - he originally cherished talents, so he made an exception to promote him, a humble warrior, and gave him careful guidance all the way. Who knows that this son is stubborn and mean, and he is afraid that he will not be the type to surrender in the future.At this moment, a familiar scent suddenly came into his nose, Xie Xuan frowned, and interrupted Yang Ping to complain: "I didn't say that, there is no need to burn this incense in the army."

Yang Ping hurriedly said: "Naturally, I didn't smoke the incense on purpose. I think it was contaminated by the clothes brought from home, and the lingering fragrance will never fade."

Only then did Xie Xuan express his gratitude—he came from a family with outstanding looks, and when he was young, he often went to school with the children of Guijie, a young boy from Wuling, and he also acquired a lot of flower habits during the time spent together day and night, and he was especially good at mixing incense. The way, the cup of violet incense made by him was popular in Jiankang back then, and all princes and grandchildren flocked to it. At that time, the head of the family, Xie An, learned about this, so he invited his nephew to play with him, and said that Xie Xuan usually loved a set of incense. The utensils are the lottery, and after winning, he burned all the belongings in front of him, and then smiled gently at Xie Xuan and said: "My family's Zhilan Yushu, which is not stained and fragrant, can also shine in the family." Xie Xuan is so smart and early-witted, he immediately understood At the uncle's will, he immediately knelt down on his knees with a flushed face, took off the sachet, embroidered handkerchief and other accessories one by one, and threw them into the fire. He likes metaphysics, quits all the bad habits of rich kids, after serving as a leader in the army, he is rehabilitated for fear that others will see a little bit of "femininity" and secretly despise him, and he is careful not to show weakness.Only the ziluo incense he made in his early years is still loved today, and he was often smoked when he was an official at home. Over the past ten years, his relatives and friends have become accustomed to it. After his uncle Xie An died, he succeeded as the head of the family, and no one in the family would mention and this case.After thinking about it for a while, he unconsciously remembered that Ren Zhen ordered someone to send him a brocade robe last night—he had always thought that Ren Zhen had an upright personality, a glorious personality, and an indomitable husband. His body as an emperor would deliberately flatter and flatter him - but he did it deliberately for his lover - or because of such a heart disease that he didn't want others to mention!

Xie Xuan looks graceful and indifferent on the surface, but there is still an inherent arrogance in his bones. No matter what his situation is, whether it is ups or downs, it cannot be extinguished and cannot be changed.As far as he is concerned, for others to "deliberately bother" him, Ren Zhen might as well fight him openly.

Yang Ping turned around and served new tea, while he wanted to slander him, the number one "rogue" in the sky, but suddenly he heard a commotion in the barracks, both the master and the servant were surprised——Beifu Army Discipline It is strict, and no one has ever dared to make noise without reason.Xie Xuan frowned lightly, hurriedly got up from his clothes, rushed out the door, and saw that the northern barracks was indeed in chaos - that was where Murong Yong was imprisoned!

He didn't dare to be careless, so he hurried away, and was stopped by Liu Yu in a short time: "Commander, Murong Yong just wanted to escape from the camp, but he has been restrained by the last general and detained again." Xie Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, twisted Eyebrow said: "It's not that I ordered you to take strict care, how could there be such a mistake!"

Liu Yu bowed his head and said: "Murong Yong thought that he heard about the Yan army besieging the city to rescue him, so he used the soldiers in the army to make food and change their defenses to subdue the guards, and then changed clothes and escaped - but the governor can rest assured, the last general has already died. Lay out a net to separate the captives of the Yan Army and keep them in secret, and with him alone, Murong Yong will not be able to escape even if Marquis Wen is alive!"

Xie Xuan nodded slightly, but he couldn't rest assured: "Murong Yong is brave, brave and wise, so don't underestimate him. You must keep it secret and be careful—to prevent leaks and Yan's army robbing the camp!" With Murong Yong in hand, it's like strangling a snake Seven inches, although he trusts Zhen Zhen and dare not bet on Murong Yong's life and death, soldiers are also tricky, and he must not underestimate the enemy carelessly.

Xie Xuan bent down to enter the room, and when he saw Murong Yong again, he was bound tightly to the pillar, and he was still wearing a Jin army uniform, but he was tall and had braided hair, which was very different from the southerners. Only then was cautious Liu Yu saw the flaw and rounded him up.

Xie Xuan ordered someone to untie him, and slowly sat down on a bed in front of him with his hands in his sleeves, slightly raised his chin and pointed towards him: "It seems that the wound medicine in our army is very curative, and the general's wounds have already healed, and he has strength. It’s just that the general is a distinguished guest, so even if he wants to go back, he has to send it off according to the etiquette. If a soldier under his command is careless and accidentally injures the general, how can Xie pay for it?”

When Murong Yong heard this, he immediately guessed that Ren Zhen had met Xie Xuan, and they had reached some kind of agreement - one can imagine what a huge price it would be to make the person in front of him agree to release him.His heart was torn apart, with mixed feelings, but on the surface he didn't show a trace of panic, and kept silent on his own.

Xie Xuan raised his hand, Yang Ping lowered his head and held a black brocade robe, he got up and took it, put it on Murong Yong's shoulders himself, continued with a slight smile: "This is a robe from him, Xie Mou I’m not used to wearing old clothes, so let’s borrow flowers to present Buddha. Throughout the ages, even if the captive generals were rescued, they all fell into disarray after returning to the country because they hurt the emperor’s face—I thought that being a general might save me from this bad luck. In the final analysis, I really envy you. I didn't expect him to cede the land of Henan, and even—" He raised his head slightly, and whispered in his ear, "Hand over the Jade Seal of Chuanguo."

Murong Yong's mind was like thunder, and he could no longer force himself to be calm. He pressed the robe on his shoulders, looked up at Xie Xuan in disbelief, his lips were trembling but he couldn't say a word - how did he know!And he...how could he be willing!

Xie Xuan straightened up, his inner brilliance stared at Murong Yong whose heart was loose and about to collapse—no matter how strong and resolute he is, there are weaknesses in his heart, as long as he is a human being, he cannot be invincible.He said softly: "The general has a high status, so you should treat him with courtesy. As long as you can wait until the day of negotiating the deal, why don't you worry about seeing you again?"

Murong Yong was stunned for a long time before slowly turning his head and looking fixedly at Xie Xuan—the handsome general in front of him had a smile on his brows and eyes, as if the spring breeze had turned into rain, but when the continuous rain fell on his heart, he realized that even his smile was cold and piercing .He opened his mouth, and waited for Xie Xuan to tilt his head slightly to listen before he said seriously and solemnly: "When can we have dinner? I just exercised a lot, and I am already hungry. Since the governor is a guest, why don't you wait here?"

Now Xie Xuan was stunned - this Murong Yong was really extraordinary - he really had the danger of mountains and rivers in his mouth, and the strictness of the city in his chest!After a while, he smiled and nodded: "Naturally, Xie immediately ordered someone to prepare meals for the general."

Murong Yong thanked him nonchalantly, there was nothing strange about it—it was said that Jiang Zuo Xie Lang was the best at attacking people's hearts, and it was as expected.A few words and a few words can provoke people to feel guilty, every word punishes their hearts, and they wish they could die.It's just that he, Murong Yong, will never be as impulsive as he was during the Battle of Guyuan - why is it difficult to die?It is the most painful, sad, painful, and regrettable thing in the world to only pay attention to the one you love, regret, regret, and even stay with you!He wants to live, regardless of the future, life or death will never give up!

It wasn't until everyone retreated that Murong Yong clutched the brocade robe, stared at it for a long time as if lost in his soul, and finally buried his head in the lightly scented fabric - the dark pattern brocade pattern was embroidered indistinctly. There are two simple totems, which seem to be words but not words, but only the two of them in this world can comprehend them - that is the word "Ping An" in simplified Chinese.

No matter how perceptive Xie Xuan was, it would be difficult for him to discover the true meaning.

Ren Zhen did everything possible just to let him know that he didn't want him to escape from the camp again, and he didn't want him to be in danger again. He wanted him to wait at ease, and he wanted him to believe that he would do whatever it took to get him out of danger.

If you can return safely, it doesn't matter if you spend the whole world.

Although Ren Zhen got a verbal agreement, Xie Xuan did not dare to underestimate the enemy's carelessness at all. He patrolled the camp day and night and strengthened the city's defenses. He also paid close attention to the movements of the Yan army outside the city.

In order to show his sincerity, Ren Zhen ordered the army to retreat ten miles to station, while Murong Yong, who was trapped, seemed to have given up on fleeing and became a hostage with a calm expression.

Five days passed by, Xie Xuan did receive a letter from the other party, and still made an appointment to meet alone at the foot of Fenghuang Ridge.He subconsciously closed the letter, sniffed it, and sure enough, there was no more fragrance of purple.He twitched the corner of his lips coldly, guessing that it was because changing prisoners would lose the dignity of a general of a country, so he wanted to avoid people's eyes and ears, but Ren Zhen was thoughtful and considerate to the extreme for him.

Liu Yu resolutely disagreed with going to the meeting alone - he no longer dared to hold hostages and sit on the ground to raise prices and other things, but felt that the soldiers were not tired of deceit, and Emperor Yan had suffered such a big loss, how could he know that he would not set up an ambush for revenge?

Xie Xuan also thought it was right this time, so he handed it over to Liu Yu to arrange, and brought another elite soldier to follow secretly, so as to be safe.

Before leaving, he deliberately changed into a wide-sleeved Confucian shirt, with long hair tied up in a casual way, with a handsome demeanor, like a good man in troubled times.Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the appointed place, he saw that Ren Zhen was neatly dressed, holding a silver gun and riding a war horse on his hips, and his bright armor was shining brightly.

This situation and this situation are just a change from a few days ago.

Even though the atmosphere was chilling and the situation was tense, Xie Xuan couldn't help shaking his head and smiling secretly with a black line on his face—the man in front of him really didn't play cards according to common sense.

Ren Zhen clasped his fists on the horse and saluted him from a distance, his eyes drifted to the well-covered carriage behind Xie Xuan: "The things have been brought, can the governor let you go?"

Xie Xuan said leisurely: "The emperor is really impatient. The 'thing' must be inspected first, it's good to open your eyes."

Ren Zhen frowned impatiently, raised his hand and ordered his attendant to follow Wu Lie, who was holding a red sandalwood box, and patted the horse forward, and slightly opened the lid in front of Xie Xuan, revealing a corner of lustrous white jade.

No matter how calm and calm Xie Xuan was, he still felt a little short of breath at this moment—this is the Jade Seal made by Heshibi!Since the first emperor, all the emperors have taken this as an orthodox image, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. Unfortunately, after the rebellion of the eight kings in the Western Jin Dynasty, the land of Shenzhou sank, and Sima Rui, the king of Langya, had no choice but to lead the people of the Central Plains to travel south to establish the Pian'an River Left and Eastern Jin Dynasty. Orthodoxy, but has not been able to regain the jade seal of the country. It has been nearly a hundred years, and it is the biggest heart disease of the Southern Dynasty regime-if he really makes such a great contribution today, the Xie family will be honored!He collected himself, raised his hand, Yang Ping raised the curtain, and Murong Yong stepped off the carriage under the escort of an Eastern Jin warrior.Accompanied by Xie Xuan himself, he walked towards Ren Zhen step by step.

The two had been separated for half a year, and now they suddenly met again, they were relatively speechless.Ren Zhen swept his eyes away and saw that Murong Yong was wearing a plain military robe. He had no external injuries and his eyes were clear and his expression was as usual. Thinking that he hadn't suffered anything, he quickly turned his eyes away, stopped looking at him, and turned to thank him. Xuandao: "Xie Dudu really keeps his promise. Let's exchange it."

Xie Xuan nodded, and took the wooden box steadily: "The remaining prisoners of the Yan army who are in custody will be sent back to your barracks in a few days. In this way, Xie will receive this great gift from the emperor." His face was calm, and his subordinates But he already instinctively went to open the wooden box. Because of his haste, his finger was cut by the sharp edge of the box. He sucked it in his lips nonchalantly, and then hurriedly looked at the heavy white jade inside. On the front of Fang Xi, there are indeed eight bright red ancient writings printed on the front - "Ordered by the sky, it will last forever".

Xie Xuan couldn't help being dazzled for a while, and was immediately attracted by it with all his energy. He repeated Mosuo several times, and suddenly he was taken aback. The next moment, he dropped the wooden box and jumped up, like a goshawk fighting a rabbit, and went straight to Ren Zhen attack!

Murong Yong, however, seemed to have eyes behind him, he stretched out his arms, and stopped the person halfway, taking advantage of the wind and sticking him sideways, thereby taking off most of Xie Xuan's attack, and then he clenched his palms into fists, preemptively, and slammed Blast to Xie Xuan—the fact that he was injured by Xie Xuan's design and captured by Xie Xuan's scheme that day has always been a dull pain in his heart. Bird spirit, how can you show mercy?Naturally, the move is fierce and the aim is to kill.

Although Xie Xuan is outstanding in martial arts, since the coronation ceremony, he has respected his status and refused to fight easily, but now he strikes like lightning like lightning, attacking more and defending less, regardless of he insists on breaking through Murong Yong's defense line, but is always beaten by Murong Yong. Stopped him, the more impatient he was, the more vain his footsteps were, and his moves seemed to be at a loss. Suddenly, Murong Yong went straight in, locking his throat with one move, and wanted to kill him!Sooner or later, there was a sound of wind, and a silver spear was thrown through the air. Although it was attacking Xie Xuan, it also imperceptibly blocked Murong Yong's killing move. Xie Xuan took half a step back, but he didn't appreciate it. Staring at the man watching the battle on the horse, he gritted his teeth and said: "Ren Zhen, be honest, how can you cheat!"

As soon as the words fell, Ren Zhen also jumped off the horse and joined the battle on his own initiative, but seeing him rubbing his body and separating the two people who were fighting again, he raised his elbow to block Xie Xuan's violent slap, With a look of surprise on his face, he said: "It's clear that Dudu Xie turned his back on his promise, but now he is blaming him?"

Xie Xuan trembled angrily, You said sharply: "This jade seal is fake!" Xie Jiabaoshu has always been calm and composed, talking and laughing and fighting, why has he ever lost his composure?However, in a master's fight, the victory or defeat is all in the blink of an eye, he lost his breath and was distracted, and Murong Yong caught a flaw, and a heavy punch came from a very tricky and dark place. It pierced through and hit Xie Xuan's vitals directly. At the same time, Xie Xuan coughed violently and vomited a mouthful of blood. In the next moment, he was already under Murong Yong's control.

Yang Ping screamed and cried bitterly behind his ears, he had been subdued by Wu Lie, but he still yelled "Master!" frantically after seeing this thrilling scene, and tried to run forward.Xie Xuan stared blankly at the criss-crossing dark red palms, as though lightning flashed through his mind, he raised his head suddenly, and shot his eyes at Ren Zhen like sharp arrows: "It's not that bad... is it?" It’s been a long time ago, it’s been poisoned!... Be careful everywhere, when did you get caught?!”

Now that the outcome has been decided, Ren Zhen looked at You Xuan who was firmly imprisoned with an unmoving expression on his face, but he sighed silently in his heart—if he hadn't been helpless, why would he ever want to make such a fuss with this orchid and jade tree?He took a few steps forward and said in a soft voice: "Then why don't you ask the governor to tell you how to know about the Jade Seal?" The original owner, Fu Jian, has absolutely no chance of leaking the news, only the Yan Kingdom can enter and leave the palace and prohibit the governor from participating in politics. Fang has a chance—who else is Dongjin's eyeliner beside him!

Xie Xuan raised his breath secretly, and felt that the dantian was empty, and Murong Yong had recovered from his "entertainment" with good food and drinks. Now his five fingers were formed into claws, like iron tongs, suppressing his dead point, and he naturally couldn't escape.But at this moment, he had already calmed down, and when he heard the words, he snorted coldly and refused to answer.Murong Yong's subordinates put more effort into Xie Xuan's throat, and he said coldly: "I'm no better than the governor, to repay grievances with kindness, if the governor refuses to cooperate, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive in this world!"

Xie Xuan didn't even hum anymore, and straightened his back indifferently, without squinting.Ren Zhen saw the fierce light in Murong Yong's eyes, and knew that he was really murderous because he had always been savage and vengeful—not to mention that apart from Xie Xuan, it was like cutting off the wings of the Jin Dynasty and teaching them to stay on the left side of the river—he hurriedly coughed lightly With a voice, he said sharply: "Now Dayan wants to make peace with Jin, but the governor is unwilling, so how dare he make things difficult? Since the governor has never seen a real jade seal in his life, how can he see through this fake? Can you tell me? "

Xie Xuan was silent for a while, and then replied in a hoarse voice: "At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a foreign relative, took over the government and poured power into the government and the public. He wanted to take the Liu family and replace him. Knowing that it could not be guaranteed, the Queen Mother threw the jade seal to the ground angrily, denouncing her wolfish ambitions—one corner of the jade seal shattered on the ground, and Wang Mang got it and ordered a craftsman to inlay it with gold. With all four corners, how could it be as perfect as the seal in his hand? !"

Ren Zhen felt ashamed, how could ordinary people know such anecdotes?Even if he knew it, how could he think of this flaw in such an instant?He cupped his hands towards Xie Xuan: "This time I was eager to save people, so I used a dirty trick. I hope Xie Lang will forgive me. The brocade robe given to me that day was soaked in Xianbei's secret poison 'Yinhuan'-this poison has a bad smell. It is thick but very special, that's why the purple fragrance was added to cover it up, but Murong Yong knew it when he heard it - it is usually fine, but once it is infected and the wound turns red, it will immediately dissolve into the blood of the bone and blood, greatly damaging the heart and healing. It's luck, the more the attack is accelerated, until he vomits blood and exhausts himself—and dies."

Hearing this, Xie Xuan suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly: "Okay, it's better to talk about scheming people's hearts!" His tone was cold and stern, which was very different from usual, Ren Zhen frowned slightly, and said to Murong Yong: "Let him go."

Murong Yong was stunned for a moment, he didn't think that Ren Zhen would really let go of this confidant enemy so easily, Ren Zhen didn't look sideways, his tone became heavier, and he repeated: "Let him go." Murong Yong let go of his hand slowly, Silently backing away half a step, Xie Xuan raised his hand to wipe away the corners of his eyes and laughed tears, while saying solemnly: "Ren Zhen, if you want to let the tiger go back to the mountain and let the dragon into the sea, don't regret it!" The ground broke through the air and flew into the sky with a scream.

After a while, Wu Lie said in a panic: "Your Majesty, a large number of Beifu troops appeared outside Fenghuang Ridge!" Dao Ge?Qiang, endlessly, the leader of the army is Liu Jinu, who showed his sharpness that day!

Xie Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, staring closely at Ren Zhen: "If all the tricks are exhausted, there must be an afterthought - now, why bother to cover up the sneakiness!"

Ren Zhen raised his hand, and there were many shadowy figures appearing in the shadows at the western foot of Fenghuang Ridge. They were lined up in a row, wearing strong and sharp clothes, and it was obvious that they were ambushed by the Yan army. , Mutual suspicion, enemies, intrigues, in the end it was all a calculation.Xie Xuan sneered and said: "We have known each other for many years, and we have never fought back in a dignified manner. I wonder if Xie has the honor to fight with His Majesty today!"

There is only one Xie Youdu who dares to openly challenge the supremacy of a country.The two armies confronted each other, swords were drawn, but Ren Zhen shook his head slowly: "The intention is to save people, and I never want to be an enemy." Xie Xuan laughed sharply: "Now His Majesty wants to get away, I'm afraid it will not be easy!"

Suddenly there was the sound of a horse's hooves breaking through the air, and he galloped to Xie Xuan's side, but Liu Yu got off the saddle, fell down in front of his knees, and said anxiously: "Captain, the imperial edict has arrived!"

Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty had just appointed a new monarch, the real military and political power was in the hands of King Kuaiji and his son.Xie Xuan's eyes flashed, and he said with a worried expression: "What is the urgent matter in Jiankang?!" Liu Yu quickly raised his head to look at him, then lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a low voice: "Qiao Zong, the prince of Xichuan, suddenly raised his troops and threatened Jing Yang. In Erzhou, the imperial court hastily ordered the governor to withdraw from Henan, withdraw the troops and return to the army to protect Jiankang!"

Hearing this, Xie Xuan's breath twitched, and he almost couldn't hold his hand, and wanted to vomit a mouthful of blood.He couldn't help raising his head, and glared at Ren Zhen bitterly—what a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao!
