The queen cried the whole harem

Chapter 212 confession
Four years ago, Yan Lang was still young, but he knew very well the reason for the defeat of Lanzhou Pass.

In the Lanzhou Pass Survival Battle, Yan Yun took the lead in defending against the enemy.

Qi Jianxiu is the son of Uncle Qi Wang. Although he has a good relationship with Yan Yun, he will fight the enemy as a real soldier when he arrives at Lanzhou Pass. However, because of his noble status, Yan Bin did not let him go. Charged into battle, Yan Bin assigned him the task of defending the city.

The other Wuhou and Guanhou followed Yanyun to meet Jiang Guo's army.

But in fact, Jiang Guo's army was in the front, luring the main force of Lanzhou Pass out of the city, and a small number of soldiers were behind, hiding in the abandoned stone forest.

Just when the soldiers of both sides were fighting, black arrows suddenly flew out from the stone forest north of Changting Pass. Those arrows were not directed at the place where the battle was fought, but directed at Lanzhou Pass behind them.

Strange to say, that stone forest belongs to the boundary of Changting Pass, although it is close to Lanzhou Pass, but no matter how close it is, it is still the boundary of Changting Pass. It is at least five miles away from Lanzhou Pass, especially the city of Lanzhou Pass, but those arrows Ya is able to shoot over.

However, the wind was relatively strong that day. After all, due to the geographical location of Changting Pass, Changting Pass is often windy, sometimes strong and sometimes small. Storms do not happen every day, but they come once every few days, just like parents. But sometimes there will be no wind for several months. In short, among the Nine Passes and Nine Cities, Changting Pass has the strangest weather phenomenon.

Because it was windy that day, everyone thought it was because of the downwind.

At that time, Yan Lang also thought that Jiang Guo took advantage of the wind, but now, Yan Lang doesn't think so.

Yan Lang felt that it must be the fourth sister in front of him who did something at that time.

The defeat of Lanzhou Pass began when those arrows attacked the city gate.

The arrows attacked the gate of Lanzhou Pass, cutting off the back of the front army and the support in the city.

That was what Yan Bin told Yan Lang after the defeat. At that time, Yan Bin and Yan Yun and his party were fighting fiercely with the soldiers of Jiang Guo.

Yan Yun said that if the city of Lanzhou Pass was captured and the people were killed, it would be meaningless for them to win the war ahead.

Yan Bin was worried about Yan Yun and didn't want to go back, so Yan Yun planned to lead his troops back. At that time, the war in front of him had already reached a fever pitch, the strength of Lanzhou Pass was amazing, and Jiang Guo was gradually losing. It was considered safe, but a sneak attack from behind was dangerous.

When Yan Bin saw that Yan Yun was going back, he immediately changed his words. He let Yan Yun stay here, and he brought the soldiers back.

The Battle of Lanzhou Pass was divided into many battlefields, and this is not unique to Lanzhou Pass. When many Guan cities fought, they were forced to separate several battlefields, which also led to the separation of other Guanhous and Wuhous in Lanzhouguan.

But after they saw that Guancheng behind them was attacked by Jiang Guo, they also dispatched a small number of soldiers to return to the city for reinforcements.

Yan Yun had already achieved a small victory at that time, and this small victory refers to the war he led. The victory was basically assured, but he did not dare to take it lightly.

Yan Bin first led his troops back to the city for reinforcements, and later Wuhou or Guanhou led troops from other warring places to come back for reinforcements, and Yan Bin led his troops to attack Huanglong directly.

The arrows were all sent from one place, and Yan Bin saw that that place was the stone forest north of Changting Pass, so he took some soldiers who were not afraid of death without hesitation.

The Marquis of Guan and Marquis Wu all called him behind him, even Qi Jianxiu showed concern, but he had the duty to guard the city of Guan and the people, so he didn't dare to move.

Arrows definitely did not appear for no reason, even with the help of the wind, someone had to prepare those arrows, so, the stone forest to the north of Changting Pass must be hiding Jiang Guo soldiers.

How many soldiers were there, I don't know.

Whether there is an ambush there, I don't know.

Only when Yan Bin went did he realize that there were not only soldiers but also ambushes there.

After Yan Yun stabilized the situation of the war on his side, he sent someone to investigate the stone forest north of Changting Pass. He also noticed that the arrows flew past from the stone forest north of Changting Pass. He didn't move, he just sent brave soldiers Go to investigate first.

The soldier came back from investigation and said that Yan Bin was under siege and his life was in danger.

Yan Yun immediately led the soldiers to rescue the siege.

The arrows disappeared, Lanzhou Pass was safe, and the soldiers on Yanyun's battlefield successfully resisted Jiang Guo and returned smoothly. Qi Jianxiu was shocked when he learned that Yanyun had gone to the stone forest to the north of Changting Pass.

Regardless of everyone's advice, he ordered some soldiers and went to the stone forest in the north of Changting Pass.

In the end Yan Yun died in battle.

Qi Jianxiu died in battle.

Yan Bin was seriously injured and unconscious, and was brought back by the soldiers.

Lanzhou Pass was also defeated.

Everyone knows about the series of things that happened later, including the previous ones, but no one knows what happened after Yan Yun and Qi Jianxiu went to the stone forest in the north of Changting Pass.

Yan Bin couldn't recall it, because he said he was knocked out, and when he opened his eyes, he was already in a safe place.

And the soldiers who escorted him back didn't know what happened next.

Of course, it was Yan Bin who left first, and the news of Yan Yun's death and Qi Jianxiu's death came later.

So that no one knew that after Yan Bin left, what bloody things happened in the stone forest north of Changting Pass, which could make Yan Yun defeated and die in battle, and Qi Jianxiu be defeated and die in battle.

Yan Lang quietly listened to Yan Ning's words, and then said: "Fourth sister, what happened in the stone forest to the north of Changting Pass four years ago, how did brother Yan Yun die, and how did Qi Jianxiu die?"

After Yan Lang finished speaking, he looked at Yan Ning without blinking.

Yan Lang knew that in the battle between Qi State and Jiang State four years ago, the fourth sister in front of him, Mu Huajuan, was in control of everything.

Changting Pass was defeated first, and then the two stone forests lost their effect, but the Qiankun Formation in the northern stone forest should not have been destroyed at that time. Uncle Jiang Wang didn’t have time to manage a small stone forest at that time. It has been decided that Qi State will be defeated, and Jiang State will take over Nine Passes and Nine Cities. Uncle Jiang Wang is worried that the stone forest in the north will be used by Qi State, so he will destroy the Qiankun Formation there.

Then, on that day, so many arrows all flew towards the pass city of Lanzhou Pass. Apart from the Qiankun Formation, there must be other factors that caused the flight direction of those arrows, and could make those arrows fly far away. The shot came to Lanzhou Pass.

In the stone forest to the north of Changting Pass, there are other mysteries hidden.

Yan Lang knew very well that Yan Ning knew all about it, so it was up to Yan Ning to say it or not.

Yan Ning's expression froze, and the naked eye could see the strong emotions suppressed deep in her eyes.

No one would know what Muhuajuan was enduring when she became Yanning.

Facing Yan Lang's inquiry now, what is she enduring.

Let her live as Yan Ning, it would be great if she lived as someone else.

It's a pity that there is no if, she turned into Yan Ning, and she suffers from guilt towards Yan Yun and the Yan family every day.

Yan Ning was silent for a long time, and did not answer Yan Lang's question, she just said calmly: "This time you go to Lanzhou Pass, in addition to helping to defend against Jiang Guo's sneak attack, you also need to take this opportunity to help the Yan family get Go down to Lanzhou Pass."

"Four years ago, I was able to win Lanzhou Pass with the help of the stone forest in the north of Changting Pass. Four years later, you can too."

"Although the Qiankun formation was damaged by Uncle Jiang Wang, I can teach you other formations. After you learn it, you will understand how those arrows flew to Lanzhou Pass four years ago. Some things you don't understand Doubts will also be resolved."

"But about Yan Yun's death, about Qi Jianxiu's death, I can't tell you now, but in the future, when the Yan family regains control of Lanzhou Pass and I can face Yan Yun, I will tell you."

Yan Ning stepped forward and took Yan Lang's hand: "Yan Lang, I am very grateful that you accept me without distraction. I am also doing my best to help Yan's family, but please keep my real identity a secret forever. , don’t tell the Yan family, okay?”

Yan Lang's eyes moved slightly, he looked at Yan Ning silently for a moment, and nodded.

He just nodded and didn't speak. At this moment, even if he was asked to call out the words "fourth sister", he really couldn't.

But even so, Yanning is grateful.

At least Yan Lang accepted her identity and treated her as before.

But the rest of the Yan family may not accept her sincerely like Yan Lang.

And she needs these new family members.

Even if in the future, she chooses to travel the mountains and rivers and not live with the crowd, she still wants to have some connection with her heart and return to her home.

Yan Ning said: "The formation I use is composed of the spiritual energy of all things. You now have half-supernatural powers, and it's easy to learn. Come, Fourth Sister will teach you."

Qi Hengyuan was reviewing the memorial in the study, when the door of the study was knocked suddenly, Wang Gonggong came to open the door, saw Yan Lang standing outside the door, Wang Gonggong immediately turned his head and reported: "Your Majesty, it is Young Master Yan Lang who has come."

Qi Hengyuan raised his head, and Yan Lang said through the door: "Your Majesty, I have already bid farewell to Fourth Sister, and now I come to bid farewell to you. When I go back, I will pack up and leave for Lanzhou Pass in the afternoon."

Qi Hengyuan glanced at the sky, and in another hour, it will be noon, Yan Ning and Yan Lang have been talking for so long, he has been reviewing the memorial, but he didn't pay attention.

Qi Hengyuan sat there without moving, nodded: "Well, go, pay attention to your own safety."

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, I will."

Qi Hengyuan didn't say anything, and waved Yan Lang away.

After Yan Lang left, Qi Hengyuan didn't look for Yan Ning, he continued to bow his head and review the memorial.

Yanning just dismissed Nian Die and asked Nian Die to bring a pot of tea.

Nian Die went and returned, Yan Ning and Yan Lang were no longer in the flower hall.

Nian Die was slightly startled, and went out with a teapot to ask the palace people, only then did she learn that Yan Lang had already left, and Yan Ning had returned to the main hall.

Nian Die immediately returned to the main hall, found Yan Ning, and pouted: "Mother, why do I feel that you just sent the slaves away on purpose?"

Yan Ning was reading a book, when she heard this she raised her head with a smile and said, "I'm thirsty, give me a glass of water."

Nian Die immediately poured water courteously, and then asked: "Ma'am, has Master Yan Lang left?"

"Well, let's go."

"Will there be no problem for him to go to Lanzhou Pass alone?"

"No, he went to Dongchang Pass alone before."

Nian Die thought to herself, yes.

Nian Die asked again: "When will the Yan family arrive in Guiyang City? Ma'am, you haven't seen them for a long time, you must have thought about it?"

Yan Ning nodded while drinking water.

A master and a servant sat there, and began to gossip about family matters.

At noon Qi Hengyuan accompanied Yan Ning to have lunch, Yan Ning was a little quiet, no, very quiet, Qi Hengyuan couldn't help but glance at her, and then at her again, wanting to ask her what's the matter, but in the end he didn't ask.

After eating, Yan Ning didn't take a nap anymore, she walked out of the dining hall and looked outside the palace gate.

Qi Hengyuan thought she wanted to see Yan Lang off, so he said behind her: "If you want to leave the palace, I can take you out."

Yan Ning leaned against the wall, looked at the sky outside, only shook her head and did not speak.

Qi Hengyuan felt that she was a little depressed, but he didn't understand why she was so. He hugged her and asked, "Are you in a bad mood? Are you worried about Yan Lang? Or are you worried that something will happen in Lanzhou Pass?"

Yan Ning looked away and looked at him: "Your Majesty...concubine..."

Qi Hengyuan also looked at her, waiting for her to finish speaking, but she only said three words and stopped.

After a pause, she spoke again: "I'm a little sleepy, go to sleep for a while."

Qi Hengyuan frowned, he felt that what Yan Ning was going to say just now was not about these, but he didn't ask, and with a hmm, he returned to the main hall with his arms around Yan Ning.

In fact, what Yan Ning was about to say just now was indeed not the same sentence. Yan Ning wanted to say, Your Majesty, can my concubine go back to Lanzhou Pass with my father?

And what Yan Ning said about going back was not to go back with the status of a noble concubine, but to take off everything in the palace, how did she get here at that time, and how to go back now.

She came with nothing and will go with nothing.

However, Yan Ning also knew that His Majesty Qi would not agree.

If you don't agree and don't say anything, you might lose your temper.

Now that the war is in suspense, she doesn't really want to make extra troubles.

Then wait.

After Yan Lang went back, he called all the people in Yan's house to the main room, and told them that he was going to Lanzhou for a matter.

This trip to Lanzhou Pass is different from the last time I went to Dongchang Pass.

The last time I went to Dongchang Pass, it was to help in the war.

No matter whether he wins or loses, Yan Lang will come back.

But this time he went to Lanzhou Pass, Yan Lang had a premonition that he would not come back again.

Lanzhou Pass is his hometown, and the return of the Yan family to Lanzhou Pass also means that he has also returned to his hometown.

Maybe he will come to Guiyang City again, but when he will come, he may not know, so this time, he summoned all the people in Yan's house to the main room, and explained some things, expressing inside and outside the words, maybe he will not Come back again.

He said to Li's mother: "You keep Yan's house well, treat it as your own home, I will leave some money for you, if you feel really lonely, you can also go to my fourth sister's place, take care of my fourth sister, my fourth sister My sister is in the palace, and she needs someone close to her to take care of her, and Nian Die can also take care of her, but it’s more convenient if there are more people.”

He said to Wang Dazhuang and Mrs. Du again: "If Mama Li enters the palace, you two should go back to Ning's house. There are many people and things to do there. You two can help after you go back."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Guo Xin, then at Guo Xi, and called the two of them to the study.
