Meng Yan had a big dream. He remembered that he was hit by an arrow when he and Zhong Roulan were drinking and returning to the camp, but in the dream he was floating in the clouds, as if he was seeing his father and mother whom he had never seen before.

But he couldn't see their faces clearly. His father and mother pulled him and kept running outside the clouds. He kept running but never felt tired. They pushed aside layers of soft clouds, and suddenly those clouds turned into dark clouds, dark clouds.

With a big bloody mouth that seemed to swallow the three of them, he suddenly heard the voice of Cang Shu Haoyue. He looked back and saw a dark cloud flying in front of him and covering his eyes. It took a lot of effort.

It took him enough strength to see Haoyue's fleshy face clearly. The tears on his face were not yet dry, and his hair ornaments were all crooked. He wanted to raise his hand to straighten Haoyue's hair accessories but couldn't, so he had to say something.

He suddenly found that he could not speak, as if something was stuck in his throat. He held his breath and wanted to cough it out, but who knew that a large mouthful of black blood spurted out from his throat.

"Okay, spit out the poisonous blood, just keep it, you won't die." Ye Bohuai breathed a sigh of relief, but that hateful mouth was still mean.

Meng Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him and said with difficulty: "Yue'er, why are you here?"

Cang Shu Haoyue's face was full of tears at this moment and she couldn't say anything. She could only cry. In the distance stood Zhong Roulan who was full of tears and gently leaned against the door frame. Meng Yan woke up and decided to leave.

"Is Shaonanguan still there?" Meng Yan suddenly thought of what happened before he fell into coma.

"Don't worry, you're still lying in Shaonanguan. I'm already here. Wouldn't it look like I'm incompetent if I lose Shaonanguan?" Ye Bohuai joked.

"Who is it?" Meng Yan asked.

"Gu Yingfeng has been caught. He is tied up in prison and waiting for you to wake up and skin him. I have thought about what knife to use. I think an ox bone knife is suitable." Cang Shu Haoyue was stunned, but Ye Bohuai understood.

What he meant.

Meng Yan looked around the room and suddenly smelled a familiar smell. He looked at Ye Bohuai, who looked harmless, and said, "Ayue, I'm hungry, give me something to eat."

Cang Shu Haoyue followed his eyes and looked over, knowing that Meng Yan was going to talk to Ye Bohuai, so she said knowingly: "You just woke up, talk less, don't be too tired."

Cang Shu Haoyue walked to the door and wanted to win over Zhong Roulan, but after thinking for a while she gave up and whispered: "Roulan, look at him, don't make him angry."

"Has he been here?" Meng Yan said weakly.

"Here you come, I called you. I spent three days and three nights healing your wounds and breathing. I left for the first half of the day. That's it. What else do you want to know?" What is supposed to come will always come. Ye Bohuai is not an irresponsible person.

It's better to lie than to tell clearly.

"Sanniang, help me up." Meng Yan struggled to get up, but she was unable to do so.

Zhong Roulan helped him up expressionlessly. He looked at Ye Bohuai with disappointment, puzzled and sad. After all, he still wanted to ask clearly: "Did he ask you to come to me?"

"No, when he left the Central Plains that day, he let us make our own choices. I came to you myself. That's it. I have never deceived you except about his affairs." Ye Bohuai said very calmly.

"Why did he betray me?" The question weighing in Meng Yan's heart may get an answer today. No matter good or bad, he only wants one result.

"I don't know!" Ye Bohuai answered simply, "I really don't know. I was still handling affairs in Jincheng that day, and suddenly I received his secret message asking me to leave the Night Guard immediately and gather at the stronghold on the outskirts of Luochen City. When I rushed

By then the other brothers and sisters have decided to take refuge in Dongyang City temporarily."

Meng Yan was silent. The question mark was still unknown. Ye Bohuai would not lie to him about this matter. With Ye Bohuai's nature, he had never been the same person as Yang Boqin. During the previous mission, only Ye Bohuai would ask why. Meng Yan decided

I believe Ye Bohuai, he believes that things will eventually come to light one day, "How many men and horses were lost?"

Ye Bohuai smiled, knowing that Meng Yan chose to trust him, "One-third of the five battalions were injured, and most of Meng Huan's battalion was damaged."

"Now that you are in charge of military affairs, how do you plan to deal with Gu Yingfeng?" Meng Yan had thought that he would lose a lot of troops, but he did not expect that there would be so many.

"The current situation is that Gu Qufeng can't fight in, and we can't fight out. I think we can just spend it like this. After all, our advantage now is that we have no shortage of food and grass." Ye Bohuai said his decision.

"What about Gu Yingfeng? Fifth brother, you have been avoiding this matter." Meng Yan also felt that there was no problem with Ye Boyhuai's handling, but he seemed to have reservations about Gu Yingfeng.

"I didn't think about it. It would be a pity to kill him. It's not cost-effective to send him back. There may be unexpected variables when he is taken to Wuyang City. I also have a headache."

"Why don't you give it to me and take it away." Zhong Roulan, who had been silent all this time, said calmly.

"What do you want him to do?" Meng Yan asked in confusion.

"After suffering a loss in the southern border, do you think the royal family will not find a place to vent their anger? I received a letter from Brother Fan yesterday. Yu County is restless. That is my fief. I must intimidate Fan Lihu from Chuzhou." Zhong Rou.

What Lan said makes sense.

"Are you planning to make a fool of Gu Yingfeng? But the Gu family is not of the same mind as the royal family. Will the royal family care about Gu Yingfeng's life and death? Besides, do you plan to return to Dongyang?" Meng Yan said it in one breath, and suddenly felt a blockage in his chest.

I was panicking and coughing non-stop.

Zhong Roulan habitually rubbed his back to calm him down, and said with a perfunctory smile: "After all, I am still from Dongyang City, and Yu County is my fiefdom. It is not good to just stay in the southern border."

Let’s go.”

"What did you hear?" Meng Yan frowned. In the past few years, there had been rumors that Zhong Roulan had an affair with him. He had never taken it seriously. Now it seems that things are developing in the wrong direction.

"It's nothing, really. Second brother, take good care of yourself and don't think too much. It's not like I won't come back. You have to keep my room in your house for me." Zhong Roulan forcibly returned to her usual expression, but her eyes were

It's a lot more complicated.

Meng Yan did not refuse Zhong Roulan's request to take Gu Yingfeng away. She was a little reluctant to see Zhong Roulan's figure disappear in her eyes, and her back had a sense of farewell.

At this time, Ye Bohuai said tremblingly: "Zhiwu, I have to remind you that people will change. The appearance of Shi Xinggong may have caused changes among the two of you. You must be prepared to face the changes in your life."

The first hurdle."

Meng Yan lay down quietly and said softly: "Fifth brother, why don't you remind me like this, we actually have our own thoughts, whatever the storm will be in the future, it will come as it comes."

The situation at Shaonan Pass is already hopeless. It is only a matter of time before both sides retreat. However, there has been a tense confrontation on Yinqing Road. Ma Tong seems not to make things easier for Xiao Yu. In order to increase the cost of the fight, both sides consciously

Xia Houming secretly increased his troops. Xia Houming used his power to privately mobilize some soldiers to support Xiao Yu. The person leading the troops was Xia Houying. Xia Houming really couldn't resist the request of his daughter.

"Why are you here? The battlefield is not the place you should be." Xiao Yu was more disgusted with the lack of surprise at Xia Houying's arrival.

"I don't worry about others coming. If you don't like me here, I'll leave tomorrow." Xia Houying felt sad when she heard Xiao Yu's words.

"We're already here. It's not safe to go back at this time. Just stay here and don't run around. This place is no better than home." Xiao Yu didn't want to treat her like this, but he softened after seeing Xia Houying's disappointed expression.

"I just came over and saw that the opposite side is also undergoing repairs. Ma Tong is planning to fight with you. This situation is very unfavorable to us. Most of our soldiers and horses are newly recruited, and the battlefield strength is not as good as the opposite side." Xia Houying analyzed

.

"Yes, this is the problem now. It seems that we have blocked the Yinqing Road and they cannot go south. But in the long run, the soldiers will not be able to bear it. Once one person collapses, the entire team will collapse instantly." Xiao Yu said with a look on his face.

's sad face.

"Actually, Ma Tong is not having a good time either. Before he came, his father said that the war at Shaonang Pass was basically over. However, Shaohou was seriously injured after being assassinated, and it was difficult to help us for a while. The Gu family was obviously short of food and grass, and Ma Tong's army was

They must also be short of food. How about we organize a sneak attack?" Xia Houying stepped into the role.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said helplessly: "In the past few days, I have continuously attacked and robbed the camp, but in the end I failed because of the fear of the soldiers. Even Uncle Cong was injured."

Xia Houying seemed to have remembered something and said, "Is there anyone from Yuan Changli in Ma Tong's army?"

Xiao Yu's expression brightened and then darkened instantly. He stared straight at Xia Houying and said gloomily: "Yuan Changli's affairs are top secret. How did you know about it?"

"My father and Yuan Changli are old friends. When I was sorting out the letters for my father, I saw that the prince has handed over the matter of contacting Yuan Changli to my father." Xia Houying met Xiao Yu's eyes and said without reservation.

Xiao Yu's expression softened, he leaned back on the chair with a forlorn feeling, and said quietly: "My uncle originally entrusted me with the responsibility for dealing with Yuan Changli, but now it is entrusted to Mr. Xiahou, and I don't even know about it. Ying

Son, do you think I am a failure?"

Xia Houying moved behind Xiao Yu and gently touched his temples, and said softly and gently: "Since I marry you, I am your Xiao Yu's woman. You and I are one and the same. No matter what happens in the future, I will be willing to do so."

"Ying'er, that's your father." Xiao Yu enjoyed Xia Houying's massage.

"I know my father's thoughts. If you need me, I will fight for my father for you." Xia Houying said with determination.

"The nephew of King Zhenbei, Duke of Zhanchuan. In the eyes of outsiders, I have great glory. Who knew that my life was so unbearable and difficult? I am at odds with the princess. My uncle has been alienated from me a lot this year. You

It can be seen that the General Secretary's intelligence from me is not as timely as Meng Yan's." Xiao Yu said angrily.

"I know you have great ambitions. Don't care about other people's opinions or jealousy. Only when we are strong can we be strong. We still don't know who will belong to the world in the future." Xia Houying changed her previous humiliation in front of Xiao Yu.

.

"Ying'er, you are right. You can't achieve great things by being afraid of wolves in front of you and tigers in the back. Let's see who will win in this prosperous world." Xiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, "Ma Tong's deputy general Duan Wan is Xu Shaoting's man. I and I

He has some contacts, would you like to run a trip for me?"

"When will we leave?" Xia Houying agreed without thinking.

"I'll ask Uncle Cong to accompany you tomorrow night," Xiao Yu hesitated, "Ying'er, this trip is very dangerous, so you don't have to agree."

Xia Houying said with a rare smile: "How could you forget that we are husband and wife, you will not care about my safety. Besides, my own martial arts training can save my life. Since you have friendship with Xu Shaoting, I think this paragraph

Wan will not do anything out of the ordinary. As long as you allow me two things, I will definitely bring Ma Tong's head back."

"Oh, what's the matter? Tell me?" Xiao Yu became interested. He didn't expect that Xia Houying, who had always been indifferent to worldly affairs, would have such a side.

"The first is food and grass, and the second is wait and see. Ma Tong's army is short of food. As long as you give Duan Wan enough food and grass, he will not refuse. As long as you wait and see if you don't send troops and let them return safely to Lincheng, Ma Tong's head will be obtained." Xia Houying was full of confidence.

.

Xiao Yu thought for a while and felt that giving up the attack on Lingling would be a bit of a loss. But if Ma Tong's head could really be obtained, he would let Lingling be in the hands of the Gu family for a while. Besides, the imperial army retreated to Lingling, and the Gu family also

It won't be very welcoming.

"Ying'er, please think carefully. If we do this, it will be tantamount to betrayal. Are you sure you will go with me?" Xiao Yu asked seriously.

"It was all my idea, what does betrayal have to do with you?" Xia Houying smiled happily, as cold and beautiful as the snow lotus blooming on the iceberg.
