Chapter 408
After confirming the target, Wei Lingxiao's team went all the way south, but at the fork in the south and west, Wei Lingxiao stopped the team.

"Leave 2000 people tomorrow, and bring the rest back to Lincheng." Wei Lingxiao asked Wei Ziqiao to come to him and tell his plan.

"Fifth brother, you only take 2000 people there? There are hundreds of thousands of troops there!" Wei Ziqiao was surprised, he thought he would follow along all the way.

"You also know that the opponent is hundreds of thousands. Even if you bring everyone, can you resist the hundreds of thousands of troops?" Wei Lingxiao had his own thoughts, and two thousand elites were enough for him.

Wei Ziqiao choked when she was told, but the fact is true, no matter how powerful their people are, they can't resist so many people. "Fifth brother doesn't need me to go with you?" He finally found an excuse to leave Lincheng!It won't be long before he will be driven back again!
"There are still many things to deal with in Lincheng, and you look very idle..." Wei Lingxiao's answer was taken for granted.

"..." Wei Ziqiao was speechless.His laziness was seen out!In fact, he didn't have to take part in this operation personally, but he has been trapped in Lincheng all these years to deal with trivial matters, and he was almost crazy to be annoyed.After finally finding an opportunity to slip out, it wasn't long before he was driven back again.Wei Ziqiao looks pitifully at the sky... What evil did he do in his previous life!
"Well, how about the two children?"

"Take it back to Lincheng, and follow us all the way. There may be potential dangers. Mr. Sun's kung fu has recovered, let Shen Chang go with you. Be careful in everything." Originally, he planned to take his two children to practice. Yes, but considering that they are still young and their self-protection ability is too weak, they will give up for the time being.

Although he wanted to train his children, he would not make fun of their safety.

"Okay. I'll set off after noon." It wouldn't be so boring if there were two little guys accompanying me along the way.

On the carriage, Ning Erlan looked at the two little buns who had already fallen asleep.

The two little buns have grown taller than when they first left Wuming Island. Brother Jin's eyes are so similar to Wei Lingxiao's, even the way he sleeps is almost exactly the same.

Brother Yin actually looks a bit like himself, but his personality is quite different from Brother Jin.

"The children are all asleep?" Wei Lingxiao got into the carriage silently, looked at the two sleeping little guys and said softly.

"Well, I'm asleep, and I should be tired after a long morning." Ning Erlan looked at Wei Lingxiao with a smile. He went to Wei Ziqiao just now, and he should have something to explain to him.

"I asked Zi Qiao to take the two children back first, and we will bring 2000 people to the south." Wei Lingxiao said his decision.

"It will be much safer for the children to go back with Zi Qiao. After treatment, in a few months time, Old Sun's kung fu will be able to recover to at least [-]% of his kung fu. With Old Sun here, we can rest assured." Ning Erlan knew, Wei Lingxiao sent someone to investigate Mr. Sun's details, but he didn't tell himself in detail.

If he didn't know exactly who Sun Lao was, he would never let him stay with the children for so long.

"Your mother and mother were taken to Lincheng. With them here, the two children will be well taken care of."

"kindness."

When the team was divided into two, the two little guys were still asleep.Ning Erlan kissed them on the cheek, and after saying a few words to Sun Lao, she watched their team leave.

"How long do we have to go to reach the border city in the south?" Ning Erlan asked softly when Wei Ziqiao and the others disappeared from sight.

"If the speed is fast, it can be reached in five days."

"The people who are afraid of General Guan already know our whereabouts." Out of curiosity, Ning Erlan also asked Guan Furan about General Guan before, but Guan Furan has never met his cheap biological father after crossing over. , just a little understanding through the memory of the predecessor.

General Guan and his eldest son have been guarding the border all year round. Emperor Zhaowu was afraid that they would have dissatisfaction after guarding for a long time, so he changed their guard positions every five years.This year is the third year that General Guan has been in Huocheng, a city on the southern border.

Thinking of Guan Furan, Ning Erlan sighed from the bottom of her heart.

Inside Huo City.

Standing in the mansion of General Guan in Huocheng.

A soldier with quick steps walked through the corridor to the main courtyard of the mansion.

"General, my subordinates have something to report."

Inside the room, a strong and mighty figure in a gray python robe sat high on the main seat.After hearing the announcement, he said: "Come in." Although the voice was low, it was thick and powerful, revealing infinite power.

"General, there is a person outside the mansion asking to see you." The soldier who walked in was quick, and he knew at a glance that he was not an ordinary person.

"Who is it? Can you sign up?"

"Return to General, this person said he was sent by the Bianjing Palace."

"Imperial Palace?" Hearing this, General Guan's voice sank a bit.Those who guard the border must have arranged their own spies in Bianjing, and what happened in the palace was sent by Feige yesterday.

King Ling's rebellion was indeed a shocking news to him.

But... what are the people from the imperial city doing in Huocheng at this time?
"Do you have a token?" Not everyone can enter the General's Mansion.

The soldier took out a token, which was a token of the royal family.

General Guan stood up after seeing the token. "Bring people in."

"Yes."

After half a cup of tea, a man in a green robe and white robe was invited in.

"General Guan is polite." After the man walked in, he saluted General Guan.

The people sent by the Bianjing Palace, General Guan will naturally not be embarrassed. "You don't need to be too polite, please sit down."

General Guan looked up, and saw a plain face, and there was nothing that could be remembered at a glance.

General Guan was sizing up the visitor, and of course the visitor looked at General Guan calmly.

General Guan's pair of thick sword eyebrows are long and black, even though he is over fifty years old, his eyes are not cloudy, they are amazingly bright.His eyes are like a dormant lion, Fang Zheng's square face is flanked by black beards, black and thick.Even if he was sitting, the height didn't look short at all, and his visual height was at least 1.9 meters.General Guan just sat there, and there was a murderous air invisibly.

"I, Bai Ran, came to pay a visit to General Guan at the order of the Second Prince." Bai Ran calmly withdrew his gaze and revealed his identity.

"Young Master Bai came here from a long distance, I don't know what's the matter?" General Guan is not a person who likes to practice Tai Chi, and he likes to speak out directly when he has something to say.Wei Ziming would not send someone over in such a hurry without a reason.You know, Emperor Zhaowu died, according to the customs of Daqin, the royal heirs were not allowed to leave Bianjing for at least three months.

Bai Ran was not surprised by the directness of General Guan's words. "Presumably General Guan already knows what happened in Bianjing."

"I'm going to be far away in Huocheng, otherwise, even if I try my best, I will have to protect the emperor Zhouquan." Although Emperor Zhaowu has been deposed in the past few years, he feels angry, but he is the emperor of Daqin after all.

"Then General Guan must know who killed the emperor." Looking at the coldness in General Guan's eyes, Bai Ran continued with a slight twitch of his lips.

Hearing this, General Guan frowned and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Bai Ran continued: "General Guan should know that that person is coming towards the general. Wei Lingxiao rebelled and killed the emperor, it is a matter of heaven, and General Guan is loyal to the country, so such a person will definitely not be tolerated. Two The prince said that as long as General Guan captures Wei Lingxiao and his party alive, the Guan family will enjoy the inherited title."

The title inherited by the family is something that many people dream of.Especially for a family like General Guan, the inherited title means that the Guan family will not decline within a hundred years.

This is a fatal temptation for the Guan family.

"This general's duty is to guard the southern border." General Guan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally choked out such a sentence.

Bai Ran hooked her lips indifferently. "The general's words are wrong. Guarding the southern border is for the country, and arresting Wei Lingxiao's rebel party is also for the country. The reason is the same."

"Mr. Bai has been working so hard all the way, so someone will take Mr. Bai down to have a good rest." General Guan didn't answer Bai Ran's question again.Instead, let people take Bai Ran down. Before he is sure about some things, he will not make a decision easily.

Bai Ran was not annoyed by General Guan's attitude, but just followed his words and stood up. "I ask you to forgive me for bothering you so much. I will take my leave first. General Guan will understand the truth of what I said after thinking about it."

Not long after Bai Ran's figure disappeared, a figure hiding inside retreated out.

Bai Ran was placed in the guest courtyard of the General's Mansion.When he walked into the guest courtyard, he saw a figure following him out of the corner of his eye, with a light smile on the corner of his lips.

General Guan's eldest son, Guan Furan's elder brother Guan Zhengming rushed back after receiving the news that Bianjing had sent someone. "Father, my son heard that there are people from Bianjing."

General Guan, Guan Zhenghe looked at his eldest son who looked five points like himself in the eyebrows, and nodded.

"Father, my son received the news that King Ling's men will arrive in Huocheng tomorrow night." They knew it when Wei Lingxiao and the others entered the southern boundary.It's just that they don't know what the purpose of his business is, and he only brought more than a thousand people, so they haven't taken any action.

"En. The second prince wants us to capture King Ling alive." Guan Zhenghe explained Bai Ran's meaning to Guan Zhengming concisely.

After listening, Guan Zhengming also frowned, and suddenly he raised his head to look at Guan Zhenghe and said seriously: "Father also thinks that King Ling wants to rebel?"

In fact, what Guan Zhengming thought was that Wei Lingxiao's heyday was not now. If he wanted to rebel, why would he wait until this time?
"When Ling Wang was a child, he used to follow my flag." Thinking of Wei Lingxiao's childhood, Guan Zhenghe fell into memories.From the first time he saw him, he knew that Wei Lingxiao would definitely not be someone who would be taken for granted in the future.
