The barbarians moved in full force, and the heavily armored army raided Yanhui City. It was a desperate effort. It was difficult for Daliang to support the heavy armor. What did the barbarians of the eighteen tribes think?

Probably "exhausting all the fat" is no longer enough. The bone marrow has to be scraped three times.

They are a warlike nation that grew up in the same den as wild wolves, and with the addition of long-planned and heavily armored troops, they should be invincible with all their strength.

It's a pity that we bumped into the Black Iron Camp.

Xuan Ying swiftly captured the giant kite, and Xuan Jia captured the barbarian prince alive. With Gu Yun's acquiescence, he killed the remaining Northern Barbarians in the city. The battle was over before the sun set that day.

But this was not over yet, Gu Yun took care of the foreign enemies, and then turned his weapons on his own people with lightning speed. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was shocked by the power of Xuantie Camp, he captured Yanhui City, Changyang Pass and others in one go.

More than 60 generals, big and small, on the front line in Northern Xinjiang were all detained pending trial. For a time, Northern Xinjiang was in turmoil and everyone was in danger.

Chang Geng and Ge Pangxiao were temporarily placed in the residence of Master Guo, the prefect of Yanhui. Master Guo trembled when he saw Gu Yun, for fear of being implicated. Only when he heard that he was asked to take care of the young prince did he realize that he had escaped. That was really

Not daring to neglect him at all, he sent two rows of messengers to listen at the gate of the courtyard where Chang Geng and the others were staying, and had to go in person to fetch tea and water.

Ge Pangxiao took advantage of Chang Geng and also enjoyed a royal courtesy.

The little fat man recovered from the chaos of the war. When he thought that his family was ruined, he cried first. Halfway through the cry, he remembered that Chang Geng was also lonely like him. Although he still had a relative like his adopted father, Uncle Sixteen

There was not even a shadow of a person, and no one came to see him. I couldn't help but feel sympathy for him, and I was embarrassed to express my sorrow in front of Chang Geng.

But there was nothing else to do if he didn't cry. Ge Pangxiao flexed his fingers and tried to think clearly about all the joints in the matter, but finally gave up. The matter was too complicated for him, and it was all a mess no matter how he thought about it.

, then asked Chang Geng: "Brother, they say your father is the emperor, is Aunt Xiu the queen?"

Chang Geng held half a handful of "sleeve silk" in his hand. When he was saving Ge Pang as a child, he knocked out a piece of sleeve silk from the iron wrist buckle, and later secretly picked it back up when cleaning up the battlefield.

In general, it is difficult for iron objects to coexist with sharpness and strength. Even though the silk in the sleeves of the Yunpan button is as sharp as mud, it is not very strong. The tip has been folded into the barbarian's heavy armor and was cut off by the hot purple stream.

, the blades were all gone, and it became a bare black piece of iron.

While Chang Geng used an iron nail to scrape off the bulge on the broken knife, he said to Ge Pangxiao casually: "It's not like all the emperor's sons are born to the queen. Many of his sons are wives, and Xiu Niang is a barbarian, and I'm nothing like that."

Prince, it’s that barbarian woman who wants me to pretend to be the prince.”

Ge Pangxiao: "..."

After hearing this answer, the youngest son of the butcher's family became even more puzzled. He opened his mouth and was stunned for a long time. He felt that his elder brother was so pitiful. All birds and animals have parents, but he was the only one who couldn't figure himself out.

The ins and outs of the situation, parents are like a mess that cannot be untangled, and I don’t know where it belongs.

Ge Pang Xiaoxin vowed: "Brother, don't worry, no matter if your father is the emperor, a member of a hundred households or an opera singer, you are still my eldest brother!"

After hearing this, Chang Geng raised the corner of his mouth dryly at first, then probably tasted it a little bit, and finally showed a vague smile.

Ge Pangxiao: "It would be great if I could also enter Xuantie Camp in the future."

Before Chang Geng had time to answer, someone outside the room suddenly said: "Xuantieying is no better than ordinary soldiers. Daily training is extremely difficult. Can you bear the hardship?"

The two teenagers looked up and saw Shen Yi pushing open the door and coming in.

Shen Yi changed out of the terrible black armor, and in a blink of an eye, it was the mother-in-law and the down-and-out scholar with the word "poor" all over his body. He walked in with two food boxes and put them on the table: "Midnight snack" , eat.”

Mr. Guo attaches great importance to health care. The only midnight snacks in the house are soup and water. The adults don't care. One more bite and one less bite. How can this half-grown boy stand it? Ge Pangxiao even drank three large bowls of chicken noodle soup, but he still only felt that After drinking a lot of water, even the five-flowered fat that was warm in winter and cool in summer was dim. At this time, I opened the food box and saw the actual steamed buns, steamed buns and meat inside. My eyes turned blue, and I immediately jumped on it with a cheer. Forget about the black iron camp and the white iron camp.

However, this little fat man was very interesting. He had forgotten that the world had not forgotten his elder brother. He first brought a big bun to Chang Geng and said, "Brother, you eat it."

Chang Geng glanced behind Shen Yi, but didn't see the person he wanted to see. He suddenly lost his appetite. He waved his hands with no interest, suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and greeted half-heartedly: "General Shen."

"I don't dare to take it seriously." Shen Yi knew what he was thinking just by looking at his face. He sat down next to him as if nothing had happened and explained: "Dear Marshal Gu is really incapable of doing anything during this border cleaning. It's just that in his heart he feels sorry for His Highness." I was very concerned about it and specially asked me to come and have a look."

"Your Highness, you don't dare to take it seriously." Chang Geng lowered his head indifferently, and after a moment of silence, he said coolly, "Ten... Mr. Marquis, who has so many things to do with his day, still bothers to think about us. It's really flattering."

Shen Yi smiled and said: "If the commander knew that His Highness was so angry behind his back, he would definitely feel sad. It's a pity that he would never say it directly if he felt bad in his heart. He would only find other ways to find trouble. , it’s a pain for those of us who are subordinates.”

Chang Geng didn't answer indifferently, his whole mind seemed to be on the broken knife in his hand. He carefully selected a position on it and started drilling holes in it with iron nails.

He had a clear mind and didn't believe that Shen Yi was any ordinary subordinate. Even if he went on patrol incognito, would an ordinary subordinate dare to order Marquis Anding to wash the dishes and cook porridge at will? Unless it was an old man who hanged himself - he was too impatient to live.

No one said anything, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward for a while.

Shen Yi smiled and cursed in his heart, because Chang Geng's expression was entirely for Gu Yun to see. Gu Yun, the bastard, covered his eyes and didn't dare to look, so he pushed him over to push the cylinder. He thought to himself: "Follow me. From the day I boarded the pirate ship named Gu, nothing good happened to me."

Shen Yi was born in a family. Speaking of which, he was somewhat related to Mr. Gu's grandparents. When the old Mr. Hou was still alive, he took him to live in the Gu family. Gu Yun's mischievous and heroic deeds since he was a child were half as many as those of Shen Yi. of military exploits.

Later, the old Marquis Gu died, and the two went their separate ways. Gu Yun took the title and entered the palace, while Shen Yi went back and took the merit examination. However, after high school, he refused to enter the Hanlin Academy. Instead, he invited himself to the Imperial Academy despite everyone looking at him as a madman. "Lingshu".

The Lingshu Temple here is not a doctor. They don't cultivate the human body, they only repair the body. Together with the imperial army, they are directly subordinate to the emperor. They are the biggest debt collectors in the household department, and also the food and clothing parents of the two departments of work and soldiers.

Among the seven military branches of "Kite", "A", "Cavalry", "Qiu", "Eagle", "Car", "Cannon" and "Jiao", all the equipment design drawings, improvements and updates, and even the untold secrets of Xuantie Camp , all from Lingshu Academy.

The Lingshu Academy often mocks and humiliates itself as the "Queen's Long-Armed Masters". They hardly speak on important matters in the court and appear to be of low rank. They spend most of their time in the Lingshu Academy teasing those tough guys.

But no one dares to compare them with the folk craftsmen who make a living in engine oil.

The reason why Gu Yun was able to restart the Xuantie Camp back then was not just due to the emergency of the war or the emperor's light edict. To a large extent, it was because Shen Yi, an old friend, helped him clear the relationship in the Lingshu Academy. At the critical moment, Lingshu The court stood behind the young general and gave him the most favorable support. Only then did the military power, which had been in decline for ten years, once again overwhelm the busy literati clan.

After Xuan Tieying came back from the dead, Shen Yi accepted Gu Yun's invitation and left the Lingshu Academy to become Gu Yun's exclusive armorer - of course, these messy things were not possible with Chang Geng's knowledge and experience at this time. knew.

Shen Yi had no intention of explaining, he just raised his head and said to Ge Pangxiao: "I have a few words to say to His Highness Fourth Highness, you..."

Ge Pangxiao immediately responded smartly: "Yeah, you said, I feel sleepy after eating, so it's time to go back to sleep."

After saying that, he put two buns in his arms, took a big elbow in his mouth, jumped off the chair and ran away.

There were only two of them left in the room, and Shen Yicai said slowly: "When the war situation in the Western Region was somewhat stable, Marshal Gu received a secret order from the emperor, ordering him to go to the northern Xinjiang area to find the fourth prince who disappeared with the concubines and sisters. Your Highness."

Chang Geng stopped moving his hands for a moment, raised his eyelids, and looked at Shen Yi without saying a word.

Shen Yi's expression was sincere and did not seem to be hypocritical, and he spoke eloquently: "When we were returning to the wild geese, we found signs of Northern Barbarian activities outside the city gate. The eldest son of the Wolf King has always been ambitious and disobedient. The commander-in-chief is worried about the Northern Barbarians. Fearing that something strange might happen, he stopped to check, and unexpectedly met His Highness among the wolves. The Marshal followed the eldest princess fourteen years ago and had an acquaintance with the Concubine. When he first saw His Highness, he felt familiar until We sent you back and met with Xiu Niang before confirming that you are the Fourth Highness we are looking for."

"Fourteen years ago, Marshal Gu was just a young boy. Xiu Niang no longer remembers him. At first, we planned to reveal our identity to her and take you back to Beijing. Unexpectedly, we unexpectedly discovered that Xiu Niang was secretly communicating with the barbarians. Clause. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Gu Shuai secretly transferred some manpower from the Western Regions and thought of taking advantage of the plan and asking you to put him in a trap. This time, the elite of the eighteen barbarian tribes were wiped out, the prince was captured, and a lot of financial and human resources were consumed by themselves. At least they could Please ensure peace for the next five years in the Northern Territory of Daliang. I hope Your Highness, for the sake of the tens of thousands of people at the border, will not argue with the commander about his deception."

Chang Geng heard this, thought for a moment, and nodded in a reasonable manner: "Yes."

Shen Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Back then, the Northern Barbarian Sirius presented two treasures of the grassland to our emperor. One was Ziliujin, and the other was the Sirius Goddess. The goddess has a noble status. Your Majesty expresses gratitude to the Sirius for her sincerity. So I named her a noble concubine, the only imperial concubine in our dynasty. I have already told His Highness what happened that day. If the concubine knows about it, she will definitely be very happy to see that His Highness has grown so big."

Chang Geng sneered in his heart. According to this, isn't Xiu Niang Hugel his biological aunt? How can a biological aunt be as good as a biological mother?

Chang Geng: "I think according to common sense, this story should be that after the 'imperial concubine' discovered that she was pregnant with an evil child, she desperately wanted to escape, and she also wanted to kill the child with a bowl of abortion pills, right?"

Shen Yi: "..."

It is difficult to elaborate on the secrets of the palace, but this naughty boy’s guess is quite accurate.

But after all, Shen Yi is a vixen who has been dealing with the powerful since he was a child. He immediately pretended to be a little reserved and surprised on his face very realistically: "What are you talking about, Your Highness? If it is because of Miss Xiu, then there is no need to think too much. After all, Miss Xiu is It is understandable for foreigners to be loyal to their own clan, and His Highness is not her biological child. Moreover, even so, she has worked tirelessly to raise His Highness over the years, and she has also found ways to send a message back to Beijing with half of His Highness's mandarin duck jade pendant. She must have done it well. I am prepared to die for my country, and I don’t want to involve His Highness, probably because I care about blood and family ties. If my aunt is like this, how can my mother not love you?"

After a pause, Shen Yi continued: "His Royal Highness looks like he is carved from the same mold as the imperial concubine, but his temperament and temperament are just like the emperor's. Blood and family ties cannot be deceived. As for Miss Xiu breaking His Highness's toes, I think There is always something hidden, or His Highness was young at the time and his memory was wrong. It is also possible."

Mr. Shen's words are well-founded and eloquent. If Chang Geng hadn't clearly known that there was a poison in his body that slowly caused people to go crazy, he would have been persuaded by the stories he made up.

He could no longer completely trust the truth told by others. He had a lot of speculation and a stone of doubt in his heart. He couldn't help but break apart and read every word of others. After a little more in-depth study, he felt full of doubts.

Chang Geng suddenly felt extremely tired.

After lighting the incense, Shen Yi, with a smile on his face, was politely seen off by Chang Geng.

Chang Geng sent Shen Yi to the door: "I used to be short-sighted and thought that Mr. Gu had some shortcomings and was often verbose. I hope that Mr. Gu will forgive me."

Shen Yi lowered his eyes and could only see the hair on top of Chang Geng's head that refused to look at him. He had no choice but to sigh and left the small courtyard where Chang Geng and the others lived. He walked out of the courtyard gate and turned out of the path. In the garden, I saw Gu Yun, who was said to be "busy with military affairs".

There was a lot of silver elixir grass in Master Guo's courtyard. Gu Yun sat alone in a small pavilion, idly pulling out the leaves of the silver elixir grass. He took the leaves into his mouth, chewed them up and ate them.

He didn't know how long he had been sitting here alone, and the silver elixir grass almost made him bald, like a shrub that had been ravaged by goats.

Shen Yi coughed slightly, but Gu Yun seemed not to hear it. It wasn't until he came closer that Gu Yun narrowed his eyes with some difficulty and saw him clearly.

"Has the medicine taken effect?" Shen Yi sighed.

Gu Yun looked confused and subconsciously turned his face to the side, making a gesture of listening hard.

Shen Yi had no choice but to step forward and lean into his ear: "Go back first, and I will tell you when I get back - give me your hand, there are stone steps there."

Gu Yun shook his head and refused his help. He took out a "glazed mirror" from his arms, placed it on the bridge of his nose, and slowly walked out without saying a word. The two small moles at the corners of his eyes and ears seemed to dim. Go down.
