The seven families have been operating in Lingyang for a long time, and their influence is intertwined. There are countless marriages between them. It is not strange that Lu Jin’s grandson is a member of the Shangguan family. In fact, the Ouyang family, the Xie family and the Shangguan family are also related by marriage.
contact.
However, this time there was civil strife in Shangguan. In order to stabilize people's hearts, the Shangguan family's sideline was not too involved.
However, it is not impossible to say that Lu Jin's grandson's daughter-in-law had different intentions because of the destruction of her family, so she could lead a wolf into the house.
Everyone understood what Xie Ling meant. Qin Yun said: "In this case, we must not act rashly. We must try our best to select experts to monitor to prevent us from alerting the enemy!"
"Qin Shaoxia's words make sense. What I mean is that I leave this matter to you. We, the men of several families, are at your disposal. What do you think?" Ouyang Changtian asked with a smile.
Let me take charge?
Qin Yun was very surprised. He looked at Li Jin, Xie Ling and others, and they all had similar expressions.
In fact, Li Jin and others were surprised by Ouyang Changtian's sudden proposal, but also felt it was reasonable.
Starting from suppressing the civil strife in Shangguan's family, Qin Yun used seemingly incredible things to prove his strength, killing Shangguan Wuya, refining the best talisman, subduing the sunset magic skill, and destroying the masters of the Chu army with his sword.
It is no exaggeration to say that without Qin Yun, Shangguan Wuji's conspiracy would most likely succeed. Lingyang might have fallen now, and he was indispensable for repelling the Chu army's attack today.
If they were just powerful, they might not be willing to let Qin Yun take charge of the overall situation. However, it can be seen from Qin Yun's performance just now. Although he is young, he has a clear mind and extraordinary experience. He analyzed this matter clearly and completely.
The immaturity and impatience of young people.
Are all the disciples of Tiancheng Sword Sect such geniuses? Many people have a strange feeling in their hearts.
Ouyang Changtian didn't wait for Qin Yun to answer, and directly said: "Then it's settled!"
Since there was no one to object, Qin Yun felt that there was no need for him to be hypocritical. Whether he was killing enemies in a bloody battle on the city wall or purging the traitors and spies in the city, it was all to protect Master Shui Wanning's relatives and to protect everyone in Lingyang.
Three hundred thousand innocent people.
"Okay!" He agreed immediately!
………
Lingyang Xicheng. Lu family mansion.
The Lu family is a prominent local family in Lingyang. When Lingyang was captured by Chu, out of the need to stabilize people's hearts, the Lu family did not suffer many embarrassments or disasters. The descendants of the family spread their branches and became quite powerful.
It was dark at night, and there were still lights on in the inner room of a courtyard of the mansion. A beautiful woman in palace attire was sitting on a brocade chair. Next to her, a maid in gray clothes poured hot tea for two uninvited guests.
One of these two late-night visitors was an extremely beautiful woman with a slender and graceful figure. In the middle of winter, she was wearing a tight skirt that exposed her arms and legs, and she had exquisite silver jewelry on her white neck, white wrists and ankles.
There is an indigo tattoo in the shape of a petal on her left cheek, which extends down to her neck. It gives people the impression that she is beautiful but also enchanting. She is clearly a Miao girl.
The companion next to the Miao girl is a young man with a sinister face. He is muscular and wearing a black robe. His bald head and face are tattooed with numerous dark green tattoos. A pair of slender eyes shine with a snake-like coldness.
.
After the maid poured the tea and stepped aside, the beautiful woman in palace clothes said in a deep voice: "Both of you are masters of the Miao family. To risk your life and sneak into Lingyang must be something big to do. Although I, Shangguan Yunxia, am small and weak,
But if it can be of use, you two can just speak up!"
This beautiful woman in palace attire was Shangguan Yunxia, the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family. She did not expect that someone would secretly come to find her at this time, and they were two black men.
Shangguan Yunxia comes from a wealthy family. She is definitely not the kind of ignorant village woman. After the initial shock and panic, she quickly calmed down: "You two must have entered the Lu Mansion through the secret passage of the Lu family? I wonder if my family can now
fine?"
The location of the Lu family's secret passage is a family secret. However, Shangguan Yunxia has been married to the Lu family for nearly ten years. She has long known this secret and told her family. She also knows that many people from the Shangguan family have escaped.
To sneak in and find him so unknowingly must be inseparable from the fleeing tribesmen.
The beautiful Miao girl and the man in black robe looked at each other, and the former smiled and said: "Mrs. Lu is really smart. Your brother Shangguan Aoyang asked me to bring you a few words. They are all in the Chu army now, and there are Shangguan family members.
My ancestors are taking care of me and I am safe. I am just waiting for the capture of Lingyang to avenge my clan, so please rest assured!"
Hearing Shangguan Aoyang's name, Shangguan Yunxia's face showed an excited look. She and Shangguan Aoyang are half-siblings. Although one concubine and one legitimate son, the friendship between the two is very deep.
When I heard that Shangguan Aoyang was safe and sound, I immediately felt relieved.
The beautiful young girl continued: "Since Mrs. Lu is willing to help us, that's great. In fact, we didn't take the risk to come here for a big deal. The most important thing is to take a few people back."
"Don't call me Mrs. Lu. Now everyone in the Lu family regards me as a disaster. Even my husband has moved out with the children. If you leave, just take me with you!" Shangguan Yunxia said with a bitter smile: "You guys
Who do you want to find?"
"You don't have to worry about this. As long as you protect the two of us, we will find a way to find the person." The beautiful young girl said, "It's okay to take you away when the time comes!"
"That's no problem!" Shangguan Yunxia said without hesitation: "Although I have lost power in the Lu family now, it is very simple to protect you two. No one usually comes to this villa, so you can stay here with peace of mind.
If you need anything, just ask Aunt Fang to do it."
She pointed to the servant girl standing beside her and said, "Aunt Fang is my personal person brought from Shangguan's house."
Shangguan Yunxia dares to let this servant girl stay here, so there is no problem with her loyalty.
The beautiful young girl nodded and said, "Then you prepare a few sets of clothes for the servants and maids for us, and I will think about the rest."
"The clothes are very simple, just for your appearance." Shangguan Yunxia hesitated.
The tattoos on their faces are so conspicuous that it is impossible to hide their identities even if they put on ordinary people's clothes.
The beautiful young girl smiled and said nothing, but the tattoos on her face gradually faded and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Look, it's easy!" she said.
Shangguan Yunxia didn't hesitate anymore: "Okay, I'll ask Aunt Fang to send it over in a moment. You two will live here first. I'm in the wing next door and opposite. You can call me anytime if you need anything."
She stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.
When she just walked to the door, the beautiful young girl suddenly said: "Miss Shangguan, this matter is very important. I have placed a heart-grabbing charm on you, but don't worry, I won't do any harm to you if nothing happens."
Shangguan Yunxia's delicate body trembled, and then she smiled bitterly and said: "I can understand, you can rest assured!"
After saying this, she took the servant girl and left without looking back.
After the two of them walked away, the man in black robe said sadly: "You can't trust this woman."
The beautiful young girl played with a strand of black hair hanging on her chest and said calmly: "I know that although she is from the Shangguan family, she has been married to the Lu family for ten years, and they have been married for a hundred days, let alone have
Two children.”
"But I guess she doesn't dare to play any tricks. As long as we find people from the Qinglian Sect, we will leave."
The black-robed man's eyes flashed: "What about the blood poison?"
"I'll find someone, and you can set up the formation, but you must be careful not to make a big noise." The beautiful Miao girl said in a deep voice: "There are also many masters in Lingyang City, especially Lu Laodaoshen from Huilongguan in the city.
It’s unpredictable, even my master wouldn’t dare to underestimate it, so don’t be careless and lose your life.”
The man in black robe said with a sinister smile: "Why are you afraid of him? The blood Gu refined by Master himself is the most concealed and difficult to prevent. By the time the old Taoist discovers it, I'm afraid it will have spread throughout the city, and the credit for conquering Lingyang will still be lost."
On us!”
There was an unspeakable arrogance in his words. The beautiful young girl frowned, but said nothing and looked out the window.
At this time, the night was getting dark, the full moon in the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the city of Lingyang shrouded in darkness was extremely quiet.
Under the dark night, I don’t know how many things are happening quietly.
On the morning of the next day, the Yannan Fortress woke up to the sound of horns blowing frequently.
The Chu army launched another attack, seemingly not intending to give Ling Yang much breathing space.
But unlike yesterday's craziness, the Flying Tigers no longer used the human sea tactic, but mobilized a large number of catapults to blast the city wall, intending to destroy as much as possible the fortifications and ballista equipment deployed on the city wall.
For a moment, there were raindrops of stone and oil bombs flying in the sky, which made the defenders almost unable to raise their heads.
The Flying Tiger Legion's attack direction was no longer limited to the south wall. Instead, it conducted simultaneous tests from the East City and West City, and established a long-term siege posture step by step.
The battle lasted from morning to dusk. The Chu army did not send out its elite main force. It always used Cheng Xia's army as cannon fodder to attack repeatedly. It was not until nightfall that thousands of flying tiger warriors were sent out to attack fiercely.
However, the Lingyang City Guards held firm under the command of Li Jin and used catapults and ballistae to fiercely counterattack the enemy's attacks. After a day of fierce fighting, the Chu army lost at least 3,000 weapons under the city wall.
corpses, and finally retreated back to camp without achieving any results.
And when the fighting was at its most intense, the side door at the old alley in the backyard of the Lu family's mansion in the west of the city quietly opened, and a girl wearing a headscarf and dressed as a maid came out carrying a bamboo basket.
She walked straight to the street, looked around for a moment, carefully avoided the patrolling soldiers, and quickly disappeared among the passing crowd.
But this girl didn't know that every move she made was in Qin Yun's eyes!
