Enter the Room

Yuan Yunzhong turned a blind eye, turned around and left the meeting hall, and was personally escorted by Wang Commander and several other military attachés to the capital.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, with only the messy sound of horse hooves hitting the ground like a drum.

A black-feathered arrow shot through the moonlight towards Yuan Yunzhong.

"Be careful!" The sound of the arrow breaking through the air made Commander Wang, who was protecting him, twitch his ears and draw his sword to block the arrow.

But more arrows were shot at them under the moonlight.

"Neigh!" The horse neighed in fright.

"Protect some adults!"

There was chaos on the post road.

Yuan Yunzhong said nothing, pulled out his sword and threw it in the direction of the distant arrow.

Someone in the dense forest let out a scream.

"Where are the robbers!" Commander Wang said, and he rushed over with his sword and horse.

The sound of metal snapping sounded in the dense forest.

Yuan Yunzhong looked cold and said hurriedly: "Dismount! Hide! There is a bow!"

Everyone's expression changed.

The crossbow was a weapon only available in regular imperial guards. It had a long range and was extremely lethal.

Especially on this night with thick clouds and sparse stars.

Even if Yuan Yunzhong issued a warning in time, it was too late. Before they could dismount, there was another burst of arrows. Several horses screamed and fell down, and the captain was also injured.

Commander Wang and Yuan Yunzhong hid behind a tall tree, covering their injured arms, and whispered: "Master Yuan, he should be one of our own."

Yuan Yunzhong said nothing and listened carefully to the movements around him.

Commander Wang couldn't help but cursed in a low voice and said: "Those people from the Ministry of War are too shameless. They want to kill us all here. They pretended to be a refugee riot, which made the emperor furious and caused chaos in the court. The ministers were dissatisfied and treated these 50,000 refugees as bandits. Isn't he afraid that Mr. Jinghu and the Yuan family will find out and settle the score with them?"

Yuan Yunzhong said coldly: "I'm afraid it's not just a matter of the Ministry of War, but the six ministries have acquiesced!"

Commander Wang couldn't help but cursed again. He began to feel scared and whispered: "Master Yuan, what should we do?"

Since all six departments have a share, it is impossible to let them go back.

"Stay until dawn!" Yuan Yunzhong said, "My grandfather is not confused yet."

Liubu can hide it from him for a while, but it is impossible to hide it from him for a few days.

What's more, with his grandfather's personality, he should have been paying attention to the situation in Wanping County these days.

It's just that he doesn't understand why the food from the capital was not delivered in time?

Could it be that something happened to his grandfather?

Yuan Yunzhong looked at the incomplete moon in the sky, and his thoughts suddenly returned to the dilapidated wing in Zhaojiaji.

So was the moonlight that day.

It was just that Song Jiyun was by his side at that time.

I don’t know how Yun Duo is doing now?

He now regrets that he failed to make good arrangements for Song Jiuyun's future when he left.

However, since there are no arrangements, then make an effort to meet her!

Yuan Yunzhong made up his mind and became calmer.

He said to the king's commander: "It's dark, we can't see them, and they can't see us. Now hide well, make some noise from time to time, so that they mistakenly think that we are going to rush out, and tempt them to keep firing arrows." Everyone, please recharge your batteries, I’m afraid there will be a fierce battle later.”

Commander Wang promised softly.

Arrows are not easy to make, and each guard station does not have an unlimited supply, and it is not convenient to carry them with you. They do not have so many arrows to use. But when they run out of arrows, everyone will go into battle naked and fight with real guns and swords.

He gestured towards his long-time subordinate.

The subordinate nodded.

The sound gradually fell silent, leaving only the painful neighing of the horse, which was sad and terrifying in the night.

Occasionally, a sound would trigger a burst of arrows.

The noise gradually disappeared, and the sound of arrow feathers also gradually became quieter.

Until there was a sound of footsteps walking through the grass in the dense forest.

Commander Wang tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword.

The sound of arrow feathers breaking through the air suddenly sounded in the air.

Hurt exclamations came from the dense forest.

The arrow feathers became more dense and urgent, like a summer rainstorm.

Someone in the dense forest shouted in panic: "Who is it? Who the hell is shooting black arrows!"

What answered him was a more rapid sound of arrows.

"Get out! Get out quickly! Someone is betraying you!"

"Damn it! Who is causing trouble? If I find out, I will kill him!"

The king commanded the envoys and his subordinates to look at each other.

Yuan Yunzhong frowned even more.

A group of men wearing chainmail and helmets walked out of the dense forest holding crossbows and approached the group of people who had sneaked the attack before.

Commander Wang said in confusion: "Master Yuan, which guard is this brother from?"

Yuan Yunzhong didn't know why.

Someone poked his head out from behind a big tree not far away and waved to him.

The snow-white catkins glow like warm jade in the moonlight.

Yuan Yunzhong hid his face and smiled, until a clear female voice lowered her voice and said to him, "Hurry, let's find a way to get out of here." He let go, quickly dodged behind the woman's big tree, and hugged her. I shouted "Yun Duo", but I couldn't speak anymore.

She shouldn't have come.

But he was overjoyed.

Song Jiyun's heart was still hanging in the air. She understood his excitement, hugged him back, pushed him away, and said hurriedly: "Let's get out of here quickly. Five of the twelve guards above were involved in this." They were robbed and killed. But they were suspicious of each other and were unwilling to disclose their identities. They just hid scatteredly on the road you must pass back to Beijing, and were too timid to show their faces. We went back to Shijingshan. The commotion broke out, and there were four more people on the other side of Shijingshan. Wei and Mr. Bai should be able to hold on until the capital discovers something is wrong."

Just teach Mr. Jinghu a lesson.

Let him think that everything is under control, but he doesn't know that people's hearts are fickle.

How could you risk Yuan Yunzhong's safety?

Yuan Yunzhong hesitated for a moment: "But tomorrow, 50,000 refugees may have no food to eat!"

Song Jiyun smiled at him.

The charming eyebrows are like epiphyllum in full bloom under the moonlight, stripped of their beauty and extraordinarily bright.

"Why do you think I'm here?" she laughed.

Yuan Yunzhong's eyes lit up.

Someone came closer quietly.

Yuan Yunzhong looked over with sharp eyes.

The visitor immediately raised his hands and said softly: "It's me, Xu Guangzeng. I'm here to tell Boss Song that we have to leave quickly. They want Master Yuan's life and will not care about food. Shao Qing escorted him The food was transferred to Daxing and headed to Shijingshan."

As for him, he should continue to hide here, and wait until Yuan Yunzhong and the people from the Twelve Guards and the Ministry of War decide the winner, then he can decide whether to rush to Shijingshan or sneak back to the capital!

Yuan Yunzhong ignored him, but looked at the people who were fighting fiercely with the Twelve Guards in the dense forest and asked Song Jiyun: "Who are they?"

"It's a long story, I'll tell you on the way." Song Jiyun said, taking his arm and heading into the dense forest, "Let's leave here first."

Yuan Yunzhong glanced at the group of people wearing chain mail, and then followed Song Jiyun into the dense forest.
