After disembarking, cross Luogu, pass Xiegu Pass, and arrive at Meicheng.

The carriages of several people had just passed the city gate when they were stopped by a person in the street.

Let's look at the woman who stopped the car, with high bun, flaming golden crown, wine red long dress, and heroic appearance.

Between the eyebrows, if the handsomeness is more, it will appear vigorous, and if it is less, it will lack arrogance.And a pair of bright eyes glowed with blazing heat and enthusiasm.

"Ma Mengqi! Are you finally willing to come back!"

The woman raised a scimitar and flew up.

Ma Chao sighed, "Again?"

"Pong!"

Although the woman's swordsmanship is good, but in front of Ma Chao, it will take a moment to be restrained, but Ma Chao has never been serious with her, and every time he plays with her to the fullest.

On the long street, the two fought and blocked each other.

Pedestrians walked quickly, for fear that a sword without eyes would be brought to themselves.

No, the woman turned the scimitar, put it on her waist, and said angrily: "Ma Mengqi, I don't need you to let me go."

Ma Chao stepped forward and grabbed her scimitar: "I won't fight today, I have friends coming."

The woman looked back, but she saw Zhao Yun sitting on the horse, nodding slightly at her, the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix is ​​no exaggeration.

The woman stared blankly for a few moments before returning a bright smile.

"Hey! Han Xiuning! You are enough!" Ma Chao howled in dissatisfaction.

Zhao Yun dismounted and walked up to her: "Miss Xiuning."

"Hey! Zhao Zilong! You are enough!"

Ma Chao's angry roar echoed in the street, but unfortunately, Han Xiuning had already led Zhao Yun and others away.

Meicheng is where Han Sui's main power is located, so Han Xiuning is also used to "showing off his power". After walking a few steps, he patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder and called him a brother.

"Zilong, you said you met Meng Qi in Jingzhou?"

"Ah."

Han Xiuning nodded thoughtfully: "Unexpectedly, he actually carried me behind his back and slipped away so far." Xiuning frowned, and then said, "No, next time I must let him take me with me!"

The carriage stopped at the gate of the house, Han Xiuning said: "This is his house in Meicheng, it is very big, you should rest here first, and I will introduce you to my father when my father comes back."

Liu Chan got out of the carriage first, with a pink face, Han Xiuning screamed strangely, and ravaged his face, but was slapped away by Liu Chan.

She also put her hands behind her back in a dignified way: "Girl, don't do anything rude."

When Zhao Yun helped Guo Jia off the carriage, he suddenly heard a shout.

"I'm going to retire Ma Mengqi!"

Coincidentally, at this moment, Ma Chao caught up with a few people, his face was gloomy, like the eve of a rainstorm.

Han Sui was not in the city, and Han Xiuning said that his father went to Chang'an with other generals in the northwest.

Zhong Yao, the captain of Sili School in Guanzhong, sent someone to quickly inform them that the Southern Xiongnu Shanyu had sent an army to the west, intending to take Hedong.

Guo Jia suddenly said, "Shanyu Huchuquan?"

Ma Chao said: "Yes. This is the person. It stands to reason that my father should also go to Chang'an, but this time even the eldest and second brothers went together. I don't know why."

Guo Jia: "How long have they been gone?"

Ma Chao replied, "It should be Chang'an. General Han is nearer, he should have already arrived."

Han Xiuning shook her head: "I don't know, there is no news from my father yet."

Ma Chao and Han Xiuning didn't know, but Zhao Yun knew what Guo Jiading was thinking, so in order not to disturb him, he invited the couple out.

The autumn wind in the northwest always comes earlier.

Liu Chan held a withered autumn leaf in his hand, withered and yellow, with curled edges.

"Zilong." After staying with Zhao Yun and the others for a long time, he also called him "Zilong" just like Guo Jia.

"I don't know where father and the others are now." Liu Chan stuffed the withered yellow leaf into Zhao Yun's hand, "When we parted, was it the end of summer?"

"My lord, they should be in Jiangxia now." Zhao Yun knelt down in front of him and looked him squarely.

Liu Chan frowned, but he was only six or seven years old, but he had an inexplicable calmness.

"That day, Jiajia told me to make friends with Ma Mengqi more. He said that it would be very good for me in the future. Zilong, do you know what Chan'er will be like in the future?"

No, but Zhao Yun asked him back, "What will the eldest son want in the future?"

Liu Chan pursed his lips and did not answer for a long time.

Han Xiuning dragged Ma Chao aside and whispered, "Did your father agree?"

"No." Ma Chao said blankly.

Han Xiuning stomped her feet: "What about you? Marry or not? If you don't marry, I'll find Zilong."

After hearing this, Ma Chao leaned forward and backward with laughter, and immediately said "marry" three times.

"Since you are definitely not going to be able to marry Zilong, it's too difficult for Chao to marry you."

"You! How do you know that Zilong will miss me!"

"Because he already has someone in mind."

"Who?"

Ma Chao pointed to the room.

Han Xiuning stared at Ma Chao in a daze for a long time, and then she had an epiphany, and then slapped Ma Chao's shoulder hard.

"Well, in fact, I have already seen it. Then how do you plan to persuade your father?"

Ma Chao pointed to the room again: "Feng Xiao said, he will persuade my father."

Guo Jia pushed the door open at this moment, "Meng Qi, go to Chang'an."

"Now?"

Guo Jia nodded: "Now. How many people can you mobilize?"

Ma Chao: "There is my garrison in Huaili, about [-] troops, which can be dispatched at any time."

Han Xiuning interjected, "Mei Chengjun, I can mobilize some of them."

Traveling east along the Wei River, you can drive straight into Chang'an.

Several people galloped on horseback, although Ma Chao and the others didn't understand why Guo Jia was in such a hurry, but seeing that he was riding the horse with them, they knew that he must have something in mind.

The sky was getting dark, and the group still didn't want to rest at all.

Ma Chao and Zhao Yun had fought for a long time, and they ran long distances, so it was no problem, but it was Guo Jia's suffering, and the two hands holding the horse rope were worn out and blistered.

Zhao Yun asked him if he should take a rest first.

Guo Jia said, "Meng Qi, how many days will the army arrive?"

"Within two days."

Guo Jia didn't want to stop, so Zhao Yun had no choice but to change horses and ride with him.

In the silence of the night, one can almost hear the sound of the waves of the Wei River not far away, crashing against the shore and shaking the rocks, making a deep sound.

But to Guo Jia's ears, it was more like the death knell of those generals in the Northwest in Chang'an City.

Suddenly there was a large sound of screeching in the forest, the eyes suddenly brightened, clusters of flames blocked the way ahead.

Ma Chao's face turned serious, and he patted his horse forward: "Who is blocking the way?"

"Ugh-"

In the light of the fire, the sound of the horn whimpered, piercing the vast night.

With such a familiar horn, even Ma Chao unconsciously grasped the Zhan Jin spear in his hand and retreated to the two of them, his words couldn't hide his shock.

"Hun."

Outside the city of Chang'an, when did the Xiongnu army enter and leave in such a frenzied way!

Ma Chao finally understood that Guo Jia's words were true. His father, or those generals who claimed to dominate one side, were really lured into the dragon's pool and tiger's den.

The sound of the horn fell, the sound of killing suddenly rose, and the scimitars raised high cut the silence instantly.

Ma Chao shouted: "Back off."

I have already deployed the tiger-headed golden gun and rushed into the enemy's formation.

It was full of flames, but I saw him, one shot at a time, wearing a blood cloak, under the horse's hooves, there were corpses stabbed to death one by one by him.

It seemed that there was no end to the killing, only the sky was full of blood, pouring down like a torrential rain.

However, it was the first time Zhao Yun saw Ma Chao fighting against the enemy for the first time, and Zhao Yun couldn't help secretly praising him for his bravery.

At this time, the Xiongnu army passed Ma Chao and went straight to kill Guo and Zhao. They were actually deceiving them, isn't it like Ma Chao?

Zhao Yun protected Guo Jia with one hand, threw away the silver spear, and killed three people in the blink of an eye.Zhao Yun didn't like fighting either, he only picked off those enemies who attacked him.

"Zilong, make a quick decision." Guo Jia drew out his green sword, "Don't worry about me."

Zhao Yun hesitated, and said again: "Understood."

With less scruples, Zhao Yun immediately rushed into the rebel army.

At that time, the Huns only saw two flood dragons, one gold and one silver, raging in the formation. The two colors of gold and silver burst out with light, like a golden crow and a silver moon hanging in the sky together, reflecting each other.

It was the Xiongnu army that was overthrown, screaming miserably.

Seeing that the two generals were too fierce, the Lord General of the Xiongnu slaughtered the hundreds of soldiers he had brought with him.If you continue to fight, you will have the name of a centurion on your head, but you will become a loner.

When Ming Jin withdrew his troops, he did not forget to let go of his harsh words: "Chang'an is already in the bag."

Ma Chao was in full swing, and wanted to pursue him, but was stopped by Guo Jia: "It's important to enter Chang'an first."

At sunrise, the gate of Chang'an city was opened wide, and the three of them entered Chang'an amidst the crowd.

Chang'an, the ancient capital, is different from the bleakness of Luoyang, but Chang'an is very lively, with people coming and going on the streets, and bustling scenery everywhere.

Zhao Yun sighed: "You will know only when you enter Chang'an. Only when the world is stabilized can the people be restored."

Guo Jia sighed: "I only hope this time, it's still...Chang'an."

At the tea shop facing the street, Guo Jia didn't say a word, his eyebrows were locked, and his complexion was a little pale.

"Feng Xiao, General Ma Teng is not an ordinary person, so he should not be in danger so easily." Zhao Yun ordered a few dishes of Chang'an's famous dishes.

"I'm afraid we're still late." Guo Jia turned to look at him and said, "In the old days, Emperor Xin deceived the four princes into Chaoge, and those people were not famous. What's more, who would have thought that there would be people in Chang'an City colluding with the Xiongnu."

"What did you say?" Zhao Yun asked in shock.

"When the Southern Xiongnu came to attack, it is understandable for Captain Sili to ask Ma Teng and the others to defend against the enemy. However, it is enough to state clearly in the letter. At most, they should be asked to lead the troops to guard the pass. How could they all be called to Chang'an for no reason? Come?"

Guo Jia took a sip of tea, "I think Zhong Yao decided to order it from the court, but...Cao Cao is now in the south, the court, hehe, how can he have time to send any letter from the court now?"

Zhao Yundao: "So, this matter is a trap set by Zhong Yao."

Guo Jia, however, shook his head: "Zhong Yao has been serving as Captain of Sili for so many years, if he has the heart, it will not take so many years to live in peace with Ma Teng and the others."

Zhao Yun was puzzled and asked, "What does Feng Xiao mean?"

"If Zhong Yao is not dead, he is no doubt a puppet."

Zhao Yun was shocked: "Then...the Chang'an City right now...isn't it..."

On the stairs, hurried footsteps sounded in a hurry, as if they were going to break the floor.

Ma Chao's face was pale, even paler than Guo Jia's.

When he walked to the table for the two of them, his feet went limp and he fell straight away. Zhao Yun quickly helped him to sit down.

"Meng Qi, what's the matter?" Zhao Yun asked him.

Ma Chao held the tea bowl in his hand, making an unstoppable clashing sound.

After taking a sip of tea, Ma Chao knelt down in front of Guo Jia.

"Feng Xiao, please save my father and brother."
