After a while, heavy snow fell again in Stone City, like cotton wool, and a carriage came out of the Guardsman's Mansion. The man driving the carriage was hunched over and looked like an old man in his fifties. He

Wearing a thick cotton coat, only a pair of eyes are exposed. If you look closely, you will find that these shining eyes do not belong to an old man. However, with such heavy snow, no one will pay special attention to such a driver.

people.

In Stone City, Shangguan Jue visited the soldiers guarding the city as Marshal of the Northwest Army.

Stone City is not as good as Yuancheng, and the soldiers who defend the city here must be more difficult than the defenders of Yuancheng. Quan Dashuan did not expect that King Qin would come to Stone City, and there was no notice in advance. Of course, he would not have thought of this.

It was just a trip with their wives for their marshal's personal use.

After listening to Quan Dashuan's report on the defense of Stone City, Shangguan Jue squinted his eyes and stared at the big man below. His gaze made Quan Dashuan's heart feel cold, and he repeatedly thought about whether there was something wrong with what he just said.

Something was wrong, otherwise why would the marshal look at him with such eyes? It made him feel a lot of pressure in his heart.

"Your Highness, King Qin, is there anything wrong?" After a while, Quan Dashuan asked, dripping with sweat.

Shangguan Jue then retracted his gaze. Although Quan Dashuan had no education, he had been in Stone City for many years and had rich experience in fighting Beirong. Since the end of the civil war in Beirong, Stone City had strengthened its defense. These

The work was said to be well done.

This is by no means the first time that Shangguan has worked with Quan Dashuan. It can be said that he is extremely brave on the battlefield and can be regarded as a figure. However, such a man has made such a mess in his inner house. It is really confusing. His wife is using

It hurts, why marry someone and let others torture you?

Because of the relationship between Qingluan and Sister-in-law Quan, Shangguan Jue naturally believed that these mistakes were the fault of others, and that Quan Dashuan could not even protect his own wife, and was simply a coward.

Quan Dashuan still didn't know that he had been given the impression of a "useless" in Shangguan Jue's mind. He only felt that His Highness the King of Qin was now more unfathomable than before.

"Okay, this kind of defense is quite rigorous." Shangguan Jue turned his eyes and looked into the distance. Because of the heavy snow, he couldn't see very far. There was a vast expanse of white far and near. Fifty miles further north was Beirong.

The land is bounded.

Quan Dashuan breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the oncoming wind could almost cut a person's skin when he was standing on the city wall.

"Your Highness King Qin, why don't you go down and have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up." Quan Dashuan suggested cautiously.

Shangguan Jue was covered with a thick coat, but after standing for a while, a thick layer of snow accumulated on his head and shoulders.

"Why don't you invite me to sit in your palace?" Shangguan Jue asked, raising his eyebrows.

Quan Dashuan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Your Highness, King Qin, please."

Shangguan Jue nodded slightly and then went down from the city tower. Because there were a few scattered villages on the outskirts of Stone City, there were people waiting to go out of the city for investigation at the entrance and exit of the city gate. Perhaps it was because of the sudden heavy snow that the people entering the city were not allowed to enter.

We were not prepared in time, so the queue out of the city gate was very long.

After Shangguan Jue and others got off the tower, several soldiers soon brought the horses.

The wind and snow are getting stronger and stronger, almost making people unable to open their eyes.

Thick snow had accumulated on the road, and people stepped on it, making a "swish" sound. Shangguan Jue jumped up and got on the horse. Seeing this, Quan Dashuan and others behind him also got on the horse, swung his whip and went

March in the direction of the whole government.

Although it was not yet noon, the stalls on both sides of the street were closed. Although winter in the northwest is windy and snowy, such heavy snowstorms are still rare.

On the main road, just a cup of tea away from the city gate, an inconspicuous carriage came oncoming.

Shangguan Jue only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze. The carriage and the horse passed by each other. Shangguan Jue's body stiffened and he pulled the reins fiercely. He turned around and stared at the unhurried man with his eyes like an eagle.

The carriage was moving slowly. Later, when Shangguan Jue thought about this moment, he always felt that it was a kind of tacit understanding and understanding.

When Quan Dashuan and others saw Shangguan Jue stop, they all pulled the reins. They followed Shangguan Jue's gaze and found that he was staring at an inconspicuous little carriage, and as the carriage moved forward

, gradually disappeared from their sight.

“Stop—” Shangguan Jue suddenly shouted in a loud voice.

People who were running against Shangguan Jue and others on the road stopped one after another. Only the driver of the carriage seemed not to hear and continued walking. Shangguan Jue's eyes became sharp and he pinched the horse's belly with his legs to turn.

He chased after him.

The rest of the people followed and soon surrounded the carriage.

Jiang Yao was stiff in the carriage. She did not expect that Shangguan Jue was also in Stone City, nor did she expect that she would bump into him on the way out of the city. What went wrong?

The carriage was driven by a man whose face was wrapped tightly. After the carriage was forced to stop, he seemed to suddenly notice Shangguan Jue and the others. He fell off the carriage in fright, gesticulating with his hands and feet, obviously

A mute.

Shangguan Jue raised his eyebrows slightly. The coachman looked very inconspicuous, but he felt a sense of violation. What was wrong but he couldn't explain.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted up, and a person dressed as a maid emerged from inside. The person jumped out of the carriage and saluted Quan Dashuan: "Master, this servant is the maid beside the Second Madam."

Jiang Yao couldn't show her face at this time. She was afraid that Shangguan Jue would recognize her. However, if she continued to be entangled, she was afraid that Shangguan Jue would notice something was wrong with the coachman. After careful consideration, she had no choice but to let the maid get out of the car, hoping that she could rely on the whole family.

Da Shuan successfully passed the border.

Although there have been a lot of people in the house since my mother moved in, my maid Quan Da Shuan still recognized him. He frowned slightly and glanced at the carriage. The curtains were tightly covered, so he couldn't see.

When he saw the situation inside, he

Although he was rarely in the house, he was still very polite to his younger brother and sister. He and Quan Xiaoshuan were brothers from the same father and mother, but Quan Xiaoshuan never informed him of his marriage, and he was also the one who moved in when Mrs. Quan moved.

I only saw this younger brother and sister after I came over.

"Where are you going in such a heavy snowstorm?" Quan Dashuan asked.

"Earlier, the Second Madam asked the servant's family to find someone. Because he is the Second Madam's only relative, she couldn't wait any longer after hearing the news. She wanted to take a look. It's not far away, just outside the city, Furong Village." The little girl said.

With her head hanging down, in the freezing weather, her back was sweating slightly. She pulled her sleeves hard to prevent her voice from trembling.

Shangguan Jue raised his eyebrows and then said in a deep voice: "Open the car curtain."

The maid was startled, and the people in the carriage turned pale when they heard this.

Quan Dashuan looked at Shangguan Jue and saw his firm expression, so he directly said to the maid: "Second Madam, please get out of the car."

The maid's body trembled, and her face showed a look of bewilderment. At this moment, the coachman who was curled up on the ground suddenly turned around and dodged directly into the carriage. Wen Renmeng knew that if he wanted to go out of the city at this moment, he would have to do it.

The Princess of Qin inside was held hostage.

Wen Ren suddenly moved, and the appearance of his body that was completely different from that of the coachman made both Shangguan Jue and Quan Dashuan change their expressions. Shangguan Jue stepped forward and was about to jump into the carriage, but saw that the curtain of the carriage was shattered by a strong force.

, but inside it was Jiang Yao holding Wei Qingluan hostage with a dagger.

Her thoughts were consistent with Wen Renmeng's. Since she couldn't hide it, she would simply act openly. With Wei Qingluan in hand, she was not afraid that Shangguan would never surrender.

Shangguan Jue's pupils shrank sharply, looking at the people who got off the car, it turned out that Jiang Yao was really not dead. Damn it, at first he only sent people to search within the Yuancheng area, but he didn't expect that Jiang Yao was actually in Stone City.

And she even openly became the second wife of the general's mansion.

Quan Dashuan's face tightened and he blurted out: "Brother and sister, what are you doing?"

Jiang Yao sneered and said: "His Royal Highness King Qin, you are fine."

"If I were you, I should cherish this hard-earned life." Shangguan Jue said slowly.

Jiang Yao's beautiful face flashed with a look of madness: "Cherish, hide here and there? Aren't you happy all your life?" As she spoke, she pressed Qingluan's acupuncture points, and Qingluan, who was originally sleeping, woke up.

.

Opening her eyes, she faced such a scene. Qingluan's heart twitched violently. The last thing she saw in her mind was Jiang Yao's crazy smiling face. It turned out that what Yuancheng saw that time was not an illusion.

It's just Jiang Yao who is hiding in Stone City.

"What do you want?" Shangguan Jue saw that Qingluan was awake, caught the flash of confusion in her eyes, and felt slightly anxious.

Jiang Yao wanted to use Qingluan to get out of the city, but when she saw that Shangguan Jue cared so much about Qingluan, she felt uncomfortable again. The hand holding the dagger pressed slightly, and the sharp blade touched Qingluan's neck.

A line of blood was left on his neck.

"Stop." Shangguan Jue raised his voice.

When it came to Qingluan, maybe it was because the weather was too cold, but he didn't feel any pain. He only felt the thick blood dripping down and became cold instantly.

"You feel distressed." Jiang Yao's voice contained a hint of joy and a hint of discomfort, "You feel distressed just for a small injury? Why don't you feel distressed and distressed for me? I have loved you for so many years and waited for you for so many years.

But you gave me a ruined family."

Jiang Yao's voice had a hint of complaint, and Wen Renmeng frowned. When he jumped into the carriage, Jiang Yao was one step ahead of him. Both of them were going out of the city, and Wen Renmeng didn't know how to do it.

When fighting with Jiang Yao, he thought this Daxia woman was quite decisive at that time, but now he heard the tone of voice and felt that this woman was born of love and hate.

Wen Renmeng didn't care about the dispute between Jiang Yao and Shangguan Jue. He was only afraid that once this woman, who was carried away by her emotions, went crazy, the situation that was finally established would be destroyed by her. Thinking of this, Wen Renmeng

He raised his hand fiercely and planned to snatch Qingluan directly from Jiang Yao's hand.

He and Jiang Yao were standing side by side, and his move was obviously not considered by Jiang Yao.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Yao grabbed Qingluan's shoulder with one hand, but blocked Wen Renmeng's attack with the other.

Jiang Yao's kung fu is not weak, but she was injured when she escaped from the prison, so her kung fu is not as good as before. Wen Renmeng's strength was so strong that when the two collided, Jiang Yao was knocked to the ground.

Two steps back.

At the same time, Shangguan Jue rubbed his body, grabbed Qingluan's hand with his right hand, and raised his palm to attack Jiang Yao with his left hand. All this happened in just the blink of an eye. When everyone reacted, Qingluan

He was already in Shangguan Jue's arms, but Shangguan Jue forcefully received Wen Ren's fierce palm.

Although Quan Da Shuan, Xiao Fanzi and others were a little slow, they also stepped forward. Shangguan Jue saved Qingluan with a palm injury and then retreated. Wen Renmeng is worthy of being Beirong's number one general. This time

The palm broke Shangguan Jue's shoulder blade, and his lungs were seriously injured.
