But I'm a male fox

"Wait a minute, I'm... woo woo woo."

Regardless of King Hunhe's struggle, the guards covered his mouth with their hands, and then...

It is the addition of fists and feet.

In the sky, Li Cheng in the form of a sparrow watched quietly as King Hunhe was beaten up and his head was cut off. After five steps of blood spattering, he flew away in satisfaction.

May all the dead including Qiu Dongjing rest in peace.

Later, Li Cheng returned to the capital through the east gate.

However, as soon as he entered the city, he felt that the atmosphere on the street was not right, some...

Too secure.

He originally guessed that when the general came back, he would definitely slaughter the children of the aristocratic families in the city!

At the very least, the head of General Zhang who guards the city gate in the north should be cut off, right?

However, there was no sign of chaos in the city.

Li Cheng frowned slightly, and went straight to Cao's mansion.

Naturally, Cao Yueying did not come back, but Wei Tong, Liu Kai and others were all waiting here safely.

He turned into fox-eared form again, quietly stopped Wei Tong in the corridor and asked, "Where's General Ma Tuo's men? Didn't they do anything?"

Wei Tong was taken aback. After recognizing the person, he calmed down and answered all questions gratefully: "Your Excellency doesn't know anything..."

"What? Ma Tuo is dead?"

Chapter 150 Seven: This Capital City, Don't Wait!

During Weitong's narration, Li Cheng learned what happened after he left.

At that time, the morale of the children of the aristocratic family was all broken, and they were chased and killed by the general's men all over the mountains and plains. The scene was very chaotic.

At this moment, a brand new army suddenly appeared on the east side!

Everyone rides horses and wears armor, majestic and majestic.

The master of this army does not belong to any faction in the capital, but another uncle of the current emperor, King Zhou Yan of Changliao!

Unlike King Hunhe and King Changyang, who stayed in the capital to enjoy the blessings, Zhou Yan took the initiative to choose to go to the remote northeast fiefdom when he was first entrusted, and resisted the attacks of the surrounding barbarians several times. , has guarded the frontier for 30 years.

From a certain point of view, Zhou Yan, like Ma Tuo, was born as a "frontier general", but the former has a more noble bloodline, and the latter has made more contributions.

As soon as King Changliao's army appeared, they began to attack Ma Tuo's men.

Coincidentally, because Ma Tuo's people were focused on hunting down the family members, they were very scattered among each other, and it was impossible to temporarily form a defensive formation, and the loss was huge in a short time.

Ma Tuo hurriedly asked his adopted sons to gather the army, while he brought a few personal guards to the front of the formation, trying to use the strength of a third-rank master to force the Changliao king to retreat temporarily, so as to buy time.

Then, there was an accident.

In King Changliao's formation, a masked third-rank swordsman came out, and his strength was quite impressive!

At this time, Ma Tuo was already being roasted on the fire. If he avoided the battle, it would mean giving up half of the elite, so he had to bite the bullet and go forward to fight with the mysterious sword repairer.

It stands to reason that a feudal lord in a bitterly cold place should not have (actually not allowed) strong masters under his command.

But this mysterious swordsman was surprisingly strong, and his moves were also very strange. He pressed Ma Tuo to fight, and within a few moves of the fight, the general was stabbed all over his body.

But at this time, a few priests from aristocratic families who hadn't gone far took the opportunity to return. They have the strength of the peak of the fourth rank, but they can threaten Ma Tuo...

The situation took a turn for the worse, Ma Tuo was flustered, and he didn't pay attention for a while, but the sword repair broke his body's true energy and came in front of him.

A sharp sword light flashed, and Ma Tuo's head fell to the ground.

Half an hour ago, this great general, who was once in power, was still preparing to enjoy the victory. Now, he was killed on the spot by an unknown master like this. His blood was spilled on the outskirts of the city, and he didn't even leave a last word.

Such a drastic change caused all parties to fall into a short period of confusion.

It can only be said that the world is amazing.

Then, naturally, this time it was the general's turn to lose morale.Fortunately, the adopted sons were quite capable. They immediately snatched back Ma Tuo's body, and then commanded all the soldiers to retreat to the west.

King Changliao immediately led his army to pursue - the sword repairer immediately stopped after killing Ma Tuo and no longer participated.

The end result...

Ma Tuo died, and four of the eight adopted sons died. Six out of ten of the elite under his command fled to the north of Dagan, which is the hometown of the general.

King Changliao entered the capital surrounded by the children of the family, and it is estimated that in two days, he will start to discuss meritorious deeds...

Speaking of this, Weitong let out a long sigh, obviously not satisfied with the result.

He explained: "The front door drives away the tiger, and the back door enters the wolf... Ma Tuo is certainly arrogant and domineering, but is the king of Changliao really Yi Yi's generation? Approaching the capital, if it is normal, these two points alone are already treason..."

"Besides, the king of Changliao is also surnamed Zhou!"

Hearing this, Li Cheng also knew why Wei Tong was not happy about Ma Tuo's execution.

As we all know, the emperor at that time was a fool, and there were many dissatisfied people in the ruling and opposition parties. Even the dragon guards were more slack in their work than when the first emperor was there.

After all, the original Ma Tuo was just an outsider who was born as a general. His surname was not Zhou, but King Changliao was different... Theoretically, the latter still has the possibility of going up.

If that kind of thing really happens, there will inevitably be a chain reaction...

You know, the little emperor's uncles are not just the king of Changliao.

It is conceivable that the court will not calm down in the days to come.

The empress dowager will definitely not welcome this powerful prince, and the aristocratic family is likely to be divided into two factions because of this. Oh, and don't forget, four of Ma Tuo's sons escaped...

Those people still have fans in the frontier, and they will definitely come back for revenge!

"Alas, the people's livelihood is so difficult in today's world, but the imperial court is focused on internal struggle." Wei Tong sighed again, and then saluted Li Cheng: "Your Excellency is equipped with thaumaturgy, I don't know..."

"Not interested, bye."

I'm a fox, and I don't want to go through this muddy water.

In the entire capital, he only cares about those few women, as long as nothing happens to them, he doesn't care who becomes the emperor—well, it's better to persuade the mother and daughter of the Xiao family to leave this chaotic place.

The antlers have been obtained, the task has been completed, and it is time to take care of the funeral.

Li Cheng cupped his hands and stopped answering, so he bid farewell to Weitong and went straight to the restaurant that he had made an appointment with Bai Yutang.

As soon as I approached the door, I heard chattering inside...

"...At that time, not only did I take away the money blackmailed by the bully, but I also wrote about how he likes to watch his wife have an affair with other men, and posted it at the entrance of the village!"

"Good job, these bullies should be dealt with severely!"

He stretched his head to look, and saw Bai Yutang and Xiao Wan'er sitting at the table, eating snacks, chatting in full swing!

Huh, it seems that the relationship is good.

In fact, Li Cheng didn't know that when Xiao Wan'er first saw Bai Yutang, her heart was full of vigilance.

In the eyes of the girl, every pretty woman of the opposite sex around Li Cheng is suspicious, not to mention that Bai Yutang is as much a monster as Li Cheng.

But after actual contact, she found that this dog monster is straightforward and righteous, with a clever mind, but because of his low education level, he seems a bit naive... However, this type is what she dislikes the most.

What's more, Bai Yutang, as a thief with ideals and integrity, punishes evil and promotes good, robs the rich and helps the poor, and his behavior style is very appetizing to Xiao Wan'er.

After coming and going, the girl's vigilance has dropped, so that there is a tendency for good sisters to join each other...

"senior!"

When the two girls saw Li Cheng coming back, they greeted him happily.

After a few simple greetings, Li Cheng told the whole story of what he saw and heard that day.

Bai Yutang was only happy about the death of King Hunhe, while Xiao Wan'er's reaction was quite similar to that of Weitong, who was very sad about the development of the matter.

She sighed faintly: "I'm afraid sister Yueying will have a headache again after returning to the capital."

Li Cheng took over the conversation: "I can't help it, she is from the Cao family... However, I also advise you to leave the capital."

"Actually, if you don't tell me, I want to leave too."

Xiao Wan'er wanted to leave, because on the one hand, she felt that the capital was not stable, and on the other hand, she wanted to seek progress in martial arts.

She thought that it would take a long time for her to break through the eighth rank, but now she is about to hit the third rank. In this way, the hip-pull Guozixue really can't meet her needs.

She planned to go to the Cao family's fief with her mother, and then look for a reputable sect nearby to bring an art investment teacher.

At the same time, Bai Yutang also said that he would leave the capital.

The dog demon girl didn't think that she could level up in a short time, but that the capital city was still a bit too dangerous for her.

"I want to go to a place where there are fewer masters, and find like-minded people to teach skills. When the time comes, we will act together and empty half of the county in one night!"

It seems that after cooperating with Li Cheng, she has realized the beauty of teaching apprentices and having reliable teammates. The dog demon girl is looking forward to the imagined future with her chest up.

Li Cheng thought to himself: Good guy, you are going to start a thief company!

To sum up, except for the native Cao Yueying, the two women and one man decided to escape from the super-first-tier city under their feet.

In the next time...

After Bai Yutang and Li Cheng shared the spoils, and returned the broken gun and other things to Xiao Wan'er, they solemnly bid farewell to the two, went back to pack their things, and prepared to set off.

She said: "The rivers and lakes are far away, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, Miss Xiao, senior, we will meet later!"

"There will be a period later!"

When the dog demon girl left, Li Cheng and Xiao Wan'er saw that it was getting late outside and there was another empty bed in the room, they looked at each other, and they had a good understanding...

Ok.

Silent night...

At dawn the next day, Li Cheng and the girl got up together.

After a short time of tenderness, they cherished each other and agreed to keep in touch with wooden birds in the future.

Afterwards, Xiao Wan'er rushed out of the city to find Xiao Yumei.

On the other hand, Li Cheng first went to the group of night watchmen who were still struggling to catch fugitives, and used magic to create illusions, making them firmly believe that Li Youxin was spotted by a mysterious female monster passing by, and then kidnapped.

Although it sounds bizarre, Li Cheng thinks it is still true that there is a certain demon girl Zhuyu in front of her... Anyway, he has temporarily canceled this false identity.

After finishing his work, Li Cheng cheered up, turned into a wild goose, and flew towards the southwest.

It's time to save Liuli Cave!

Chapter 150: The fox is gone~ The tea is not cold~

On the afternoon of the second day after the scuffle in the north of the city, Cao Yueying got the news and turned around and returned to the capital.

After understanding the situation, she really had a headache as Xiao Wan'er expected.

She had seen Zhou Yan, the king of Changliao before. He was tall and mighty, with the appearance of an eagle watching a wolf and Gu Zhi. That was really an old father's farting-dad (dominant) air exposed!

Moreover, after the king of Changliao cleaned up the remnants of the general Ma Tuo, he even asked for rewards for his subordinates and the children of the aristocratic families who participated in the war that day. Over 500 official titles were created overnight, so that the treasury was used for the new generation. The sable tails used by officials to make crown decorations are not enough, so we can only use dog tails to continue...

Those who received the reward were naturally full of praise, and they blew King Changliao into the great savior and hero who turned the tide—hey, what a coincidence, Ma Tuo also enjoyed this reputation when he first came to Beijing.

But in Cao Yueying's opinion...is this something a vassal should do?The rewards should all come from the Holy Majesty himself.

Besides, 500 people in one night... This, this is too much!

If there is trouble in the country and rewards are distributed indiscriminately, won't everyone be looking forward to trouble in the future?

However, in the face of such abnormalities, His Majesty's wisdom said that his mind is calm... well, he probably cannot understand the nature of these behaviors.And the empress dowager and empress, who were supposed to stand with him, didn't want to run into trouble when King Changliao was in full swing.

The only good news is that the mysterious sword cultivator who followed King Changliao to the capital was said to have left the city alone after being visited by the national teacher once, and lived in seclusion in the nearby mountains and forests, never showing his face again.

But in general, Cao Yueying can only be depressed by herself.

She is a little confused now.

As a child of an aristocratic family with ideals and talents, when she first became an official, she still wanted to help the society and be a capable minister of the world.

But after working hard for more than half a year... It can't be said that the results are remarkable, at least it can be said that the effort was in vain.

His Majesty is a good person, but he is also a fool, a typical example of a person who is not bad but useless.

Inside and outside the court, generals and vassal kings are another bunch of careerists.Although there are many talented people in the family, more of them are addicted to pleasure and can't be used.

However, outside the capital, the people all over the world are suffering terribly...
