First brother conceived

, in the innermost room, he turned the candlestick standing by the door, and about ten steps fell from the roof, and Yuan Zhuo and the others climbed up one by one. The upper floor is a triangular space. , there are transom windows for ventilation, beds, and various daily necessities, but there are many places where you can't stand, and the space is a bit small, but this place is safe and unremarkable, and Yuan Zhuo and the others are not people who would mind such things.

Baihu talked with Chi for a few words, and learned that the six secret passages that Yuantuo and the others used to leave the city last night had been searched out according to Yuantuo's arrangement. All trapped in the city.

Yuan Tuo's plan was indeed very good, and it happened to meet the weakness of the emperor. The emperor is smart and easy to be arrogant. After Yuan Tuo and the others left the city, the emperor did not destroy the six secret passages leading to the outside of the city. He thought that Yuantuo would not only use such a good place once, and the capital was not hunting anyone. The emperor seemed to think that his capital was safe, and moved all his thoughts to the outside. The army strives for wisdom and finds various loopholes.

But both Yuan Zhuo and Yuan Tuo, who planned this matter, knew that this was just a tactic to delay the attack, and it would not last long. Sooner or later, the emperor would turn his eyes back to his feet.

Although Yuan Tuo has traveled a long way outside the city, he still tries his best to communicate with Yuan Zhuo. Although the capital city is no longer searched, the supervision of the city gate is stricter, and there are very few stationery news that can be brought into the city. At most, they can only pass on oral messages, so although they can't say affectionate words, it is enough for them.

Ten days passed in a blink of an eye. Yuan Tuo was wearing armor and sitting on horseback, watching his last line of defense leading to the capital. As long as he passed the so-called iron-armed copper wall, the imperial palace of the capital would be within reach. , the so-called courtesy first, soldier after all, after all years of being a minister, Yuan Tuo did not attack the city overnight, sent someone to send a letter to the emperor to persuade him to surrender, and offered generous conditions, as long as the emperor is willing to surrender to the Zen throne, he will be given a back cover and let him be a happy prince. Absolutely don't make things difficult for him, if a rational and smart person must know that half of the country has been injured by others, he is already a turtle in the urn, the situation has long been over, and he will definitely surrender at this time, but the emperor's arrogant temperament, how can he allow the past? The courtiers' persuasion to surrender not only killed Yuan Tuo's own officials who sent the letter, but also uttered nonsense to take the heads of Yuan Tuo and others.

The situation became more tense. When the news came out, Yuan Tuo was not surprised at all. The range was expected. Yuan Tuo planned to attack the city tomorrow. The last city in front of him was a tough nut to crack. There were at least 30 people in it. Thousands of soldiers, some gathered by the emperor from other places, and some retreated from the previous cities. Although they are miscellaneous troops, they are large in number after all. The general in charge of the military order is an old general with the same name as Prince De. The reason why he is still loyal to the imperial court is not because he is greedy for merit, power, and money, nor is he loyal, but because he is at odds with Prince De. Even if he knows that the emperor is bad, he will not be loyal to Prince De. Prince De once said that this man is his lifelong opponent, it is difficult to defeat him, but it is not easy for him to defeat himself.

Yuan Tuo did not dare to say that he was born out of blue in the military, so he was not sure about this man who even his father said that he would be difficult to defeat. After discussing with everyone for two hours, the boy didn't say anything. , Yuan Tuo himself is at a loss, the others are scattered, Yuan Tuo stands outside the tent and looks at the stars, and misses the person who thinks the most. If his lovely elder brother is here, he will definitely find a way...

When Yuan Tuo was hesitating about how to face the tough bone in front of him, the emperor in the palace was interrogating the prisoner.

The person who was interrogated was a very poor county magistrate surnamed Yang who had been captured from the capital. The emperor only heard that this person had had dinner with Anyang Yuanzhuo several times, and that Anyang Yuanzhuo had helped this family He secretly captured the family in Jingjing City.

The male owner of this family is a tough one. In the previous few times of torture, he insisted that he had never met anyone in Anyang's family, and he never knew any conspiracy.

Today the emperor interrogated himself and asked in a gentle tone. The county magistrate surnamed Yang didn't let go at first. Don't say anything, just cut open his wife's stomach. He and you are curious about what the five-month-old child looks like, and when he said that, he asked someone to clamp the woman whose face was pale from fright, and lifted up her clothes, revealing After touching the round belly, the eunuch beside him walked up to the woman and pressed the tip of the gleaming dagger against the woman's belly. The emperor reiterated that as long as he said, he would not do anything to his family. The county magistrate surnamed Yang still didn't let go, the emperor smiled faintly, and winked at the eunuch he got.

The front tip of the dagger cut through the flesh, and blood rolled out. The woman cried and passed away, and the magistrate Yang finally couldn't stand it anymore, and told everything he knew. What he knew was actually Not many, but he also participated in this year's Hundred Days Banquet, so he revealed the truth. The emperor did not kill this man, but locked him and his wife up.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a group of people left the capital. Yuan Zhuo naturally got the news within a short time, but the capital was under martial law, and the emperor was probably using this to find people lurking in the capital. Yuan Zhuo was very anxious. The fire was imminent, and there was no way to send the news. In the end, he could only pray that his father's foresight ability could foresee this danger and avoid it...

75. Autumn Judgment

"The news still can't be delivered, what should I do, big brother?" Yuan Qian walked to Yuan Zhuo's side, because the news from the capital yesterday was too shocking, coupled with the struggle and anxiety of the next day, Yuan Qian's voice was hoarse because of the anger .

Yuan Qian and Bai Hu have been thinking of various ways to send the news out, but in the end none of them worked, and there was no place that could get out of the city that day, and all those who tried to get out of the city were arrested. The people Zhuo sent, if they didn't have the people from the city gate to respond, they would all be in jail by now.

Yuan Zhuo's face was full of tiredness, he raised his head to look at Yuan Qian, and said lazily: "The cells in the capital are big enough, and then arrest people inside."

"Brother, are you not in a hurry?" Yuan Qian was full of surprise at Yuan Zhuo's indifference at the moment.

"It's been a day, even if the news spreads, it's already too late, let's go and see." Yuan Zhuo looked at Yuan Qian's impatient look, reached out to touch his belly, and said lightly: "Let's Those guarding the city gates should pay attention, if there is anything unusual, please come and notify, the palace is the same."

Yuan Qian stood there in a daze for a long time, then thought about it, coughed twice, walked to the side and sat down.

Yuan Zhuo watched the anxious Yuan Qian calm down, turned his head to look at Bai Hu, Bai Hu immediately muttered knowingly, why the medicine hasn't been delivered yet, Yuan Qian said I'll go and have a look, then opened the descending mechanism, from the ladder The first two steps combined into three steps, and ran down the second floor. Baihu sat next to Yuan Zhuo and put his hands on Yuan Zhuo's stomach. Although the small things inside looked small, they were already dishonest. In Zhuo's belly, when interacting with his father, as long as you put your hand on the slightly convex place, the palm will bulge. Baihu likes this feeling very much. After Yuan Zhuo's consent, he will always put his hand on Yuan Zhuo's belly. Perhaps because of this interaction, the third child in Yuan Zhuo’s stomach was the closest to his godfather, Baihu, even his father Yuan Zhuo. Taku had to step aside.Yuan Zhuo shook his neck tiredly. He didn't sleep much these days, his eyes were sore and uncomfortable, he looked down at the silent Baihu, and said with a smile: "Baihu, you know what I'm going to do, don't plan to stop me ?”

"If they were really caught, if I were you, I would do the same thing." Baihu didn't look up at Yuan Zhuo, his eyes stopped at the hand on Yuan Zhuo's stomach, the little guy inside was bumping into his There was a strange feeling in the palm of his hand, "Just take him on an adventure, do you have the heart?"

"He'll be fine, and I won't let him be, as long as I live."

Yuan Zhuo's tone was firm, but his calm expression really didn't look like he was talking about life and death.Bai Hu looked up at Yuan Zhuo, "Then do you think you can come back alive?"

"My father said that I will spend 80 years with Yuan Tuo, and it is obviously not yet." Yuan Zhuo smiled indifferently, although he did not fully believe in his god-given father, but at this time, he said If it is, it is naturally regarded as the golden rule.Baihu was in awe of that Fengtian, he didn't think that person was a magic stick, because the first time they met, that person told his past in one word, since he believed in Baihu, he didn't say anything to stop him.

"Where is Yuan Qian, will he let you go on an adventure? Are you going to take him with you?" Yuan Zhuo stretched out his hand to hold the jade pendant around his neck, and said lazily: "I don't want to take him with me, but he may have to follow I can't, in my situation, if there is no one around, do you think it's okay? I can't take Doctor Lu with me either, so he's the only one left."

Bai Hu looked at Yuan Zhuo's laziness, as if he didn't care about Yuan Qian's life and death. If he won't die, he won't die easily," Yuan Zhuo said, leaning into Bai Hu's ear
