Emperor Phoenix

Chapter 280

He lay wet on the bank of the river, the tide ebbed and flowed, submerged his face, receded again, submerged again, receded again, again and again he lost all his strength, and even hoped to be carried to the bottom of Qingma River by the tide, never having to float up , Never have to face these things that are always missed in the world of mortals, never to be chased.

In her life, he was one step too late, so he was doomed to be a passer-by forever, the poor child who shrank under her skirt and fell down in the dust.

Bai Yuan smiled lightly.

In a flash, so many years have passed.

Later, he went down the mountain early before he finished his studies, just because of the unwillingness in his heart. It wasn't until he got close to her that he realized why she ignored him back then.

Few people in the world know that Liu Wanlan, Queen of Dongyan, who is famous all over the world for her beauty, is unparalleled in the world, and is also known as a twin sister with Queen Qin Changge of Xiliang, is a person with speech barriers.

She can't use her tongue to speak freely, so she has always chosen to use the sound of the piano to express her thoughts. After listening to it for so many years, he has become familiar with her sound of the piano to the point that he can know the meaning of each syllable at different times.

On weekdays in the court, all the memorials go through his hands first, and he will give her a solution within the fastest time for her to review, and she only needs to say a word or two.Yes, or no.

Within five words, she has no problem.

Because of this, in the Eastern Yan Dynasty, it was always rumored that he was arbitrarily authoritarian, that he had the heart to usurp the throne, and that he controlled the government and emptied the Queen.

so what?It has nothing to do with me that the world slanders me, praises me, insults me and greedies me.

Just her, trust me.

Bai Yuan's eyes flickered in the twilight... In the blink of an eye, for more than twenty years, the world of mortals was turbulent. He had exhausted all the people in the world, and finally there was one person who insisted on never being burdened. In the past few years, every day is a day of happiness. Every day is torture, he watched her step by step to a high position, and step by step further away from him, he watched her little bird clinging to the side of Wang Fu, the husband and wife were loving and affectionate, even mentioning him in the music of the zither Full of lingering joy.

How can it be.

He was beside her, so close, so far away.

... The sound of the piano vibrated suddenly.

Bai Yuan's eyebrows raised up—is she sick again?

Just as he was about to fly down to the pavilion to have a look, the vines swayed behind him, and the fragrant wind sent him secretly.

Frowning slightly, but when he turned around, his expression was normal, Bai Yuan smiled, "Your Majesty is out for a walk?"

Wanyan Chunzhen sat down with a half-smile, turned his head to look at Bai Yuan, his expression was a bit charming like a little girl's, "I'm here to see a play."

"Oh? What play?" Bai Yuan remained expressionless, "Your Majesty ordered a play?"

"I'm looking at the excellent singing and writing of 'Unintentional Girl Caresses the Music in the Bibo Pavilion, and the Infatuated Minister Lingxu Listens to the Qin'." Wanyan Chunzhen smiled, "I wonder if Bai Guoshi is interested?"

"Really? It sounds really good," Bai Yuan smiled lightly, "It seems much more exciting than the 'Kuixing Pavilion moves the Forbidden Palace with a song in the Kuixing Pavilion, and two kings in Yiping Palace fight for a concubine' I heard last time when I passed by the Northern Wei Dynasty?" "

Wanyan Chunzhen's hand, which was gently touching the railing of the pavilion, paused for a moment, and then returned to normal. She smiled charmingly, flicked her fingers, and a homing bird in the small woods in the distance suddenly screamed and fell, and the ground rustled. A layer of dead leaves fell.

"I have never heard of the play that the national teacher talked about, but if you and I still talk about the play here, I'm afraid we will sing 'Mang Xiliang attacked Yunzhou at night, cowardly Wei Yan feared the battle and abandoned the city'" A new legend."

"Oh?" Bai Yuan slightly raised his eyebrows, "Sneak attack?"

Wanyan Chunzhen didn't speak again, just looked at Bai Yuan with a half-smile.

Smiling slightly, Bai Yuan was already impatient with the femme fatale playing the kind of devious tricks that high-ranking people like to play. He hadn't had time to check the piano sound in the pavilion just now.

"If there are no accidents tonight, Xiliang may move the Queshang Dike. I have sent heavy troops to guard there, and I will go there in person later."

"It's better for me to go, you stay and deal with Xiao Jue, that's not a good match," Wanyan Chunzhen smiled coldly, "Some people, I have long wanted to have a good meeting."

Bai Yuan hesitated for a moment, and instinctively felt that he should go, but the vibrato just now scratched and scratched on his heart like a string, or a thin thread wrapped around the apex of his heart, so entangled that he was reluctant to break it.

how is sheTraveling long distances is not something her body can bear, but don't catch a cold.

Wanyan Chunzhen is the descendant of the Wanyan family, who has the ability to disperse the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He may not be able to do it himself. It should be no problem for her to go.

It's just that that person...

It's just that Wan Lan...

The thoughts in his heart were overturned several times, and Bai Yuan finally nodded slowly, saying: "Your Majesty, be careful."

Wanyan Chunzhen opened her arms with a slightly evil smile, turned around gracefully and walked down, and said in a charming voice: "Master, you are wrong, you should tell them to be careful..."

Her enchanting figure gradually faded away, Bai Yuan frowned, turned around, and quickly threw himself into the warm pavilion.

The night is dark and the wind is chilling.

When the Xiliang army rushed to the vicinity of the Queshang embankment at the fastest speed, they found some sporadic torches lit there. There was a team of defenders on each side of the embankment and a row of tents. It was late at night, but there were still groups of soldiers Tour up and down the embankment back and forth.

With a wave of Qin Changsinger, the subordinates of the Five Hundred Phoenix Alliance immediately left the team silently and walked around from the other direction.

They wrapped their whole bodies tightly so that the wind could not blow in. Their heads were tied with black cloth, their faces were painted with black mud, they held short daggers in their mouths, and tied fire mines around their waists. Things like shovels and thunderbolts, these masters of the Phoenix Alliance with internal strength and lightness skills are the main force for digging embankments, and one person can be equivalent to dozens of ordinary soldiers.

Qin Changge stood in the darkness, slashing down hard with his hand.

The [-] elite soldiers immediately rushed over silently, and rushed towards the patrolling defenders who hadn't noticed the approach of the enemy.

A soldier was patrolling along the embankment with a gun, when suddenly a hand appeared like a ghost, and quickly covered his mouth!

The soldier was shocked and struggled desperately, but another hand wrapped around his waist tightly.

The soldiers kicked vigorously, and the toes of their boots brought up yellow dust and smoke.

Suddenly, "poof".

The dull sound of the tip of the knife entering the flesh.

The kicking leg trembled violently, trembled a few times, and gradually stiffened. The soldier let out a last dull moan that was trapped in his chest.

Someone let go of his hand abruptly, and the corpse fell to the ground limply. With wide-open eyes, he was staring at the dark sky unwillingly and blankly.

There was a crackling sound, the corpse was dragged away, and everything returned to calm.

In the air, there was a faint smell of blood.

Under the embankment, beside the road, behind the grass, such ambushes were repeated again and again. Assassination was an indispensable course for the sturdy elite soldiers trained by Chu Feihuan himself. The soldiers on night watch have been dealt with.

Qin Changge and Chu Feihuan floated up and flew over the tents. Every time they passed by a tent, Qin Changge silently cut open the tent, and blew a pipe in his hand into the tent.

While you are sleeping, I will kill you.

In a blink of an eye, dozens of tents have been settled.

Suddenly there was a loud shout, resounding through the quiet night.

"Who!"

Almost immediately after the sound of drinking, the flames lit up.

A man in brown clothes flew over from a tent, his footwork was extremely fast, he soared up like a goshawk, then made a strong turn in mid-air, and flew over like a stray bullet.

Qin Changge looked at his posture and felt vaguely familiar, but it was by no means Bai Yuan.

The man landed on the ground, without even saying hello, he raised his hand with a sword, and said coldly: "Sure enough, you are here!"

Qin Changge smiled, flicked the soft sword at the side of his waist, and caught his sword lightly, and suddenly found Chu Feihuan swaying on the side of his body. He was on the edge of the sword energy but did not retreat. over his chest.

Qin Changge was startled, and hastily stretched out his hand to pull, but instead of retreating, Chu Feihuan advanced, and slid to the opposite side, without looking back, he stabbed the man's back with his sword.

Qin Changge immediately slashed at the man's heart with a sword in an extremely tacit understanding.

The two masters attacked back and forth, the sword wind was fierce, the man's martial arts were not low, but he was by no means an opponent of two people, and he was about to die under the sword.

The man suddenly yelled angrily, leaned back and slammed into Chu Feihuan's Feiyujian.

With a puff, the sound of the sharp blade piercing through the shoulder bone could be heard very clearly in the quiet night. The man sneered in the blood rushing wildly, and rushed forward fiercely, pulling his shoulder out of the sword edge. A stream of bright blood drops slipped out.

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Two cheers sounded at the same time.

It was Qin Changge first, and her eyes were full of admiration. The other party's martial arts were not too high, but his resilience and determination were excellent. She saw in a hurry that Chu Feihuan had been injured not long ago, and half of her body was not flexible enough, so she chose In order to hit his sword, and this person's determination is really extraordinary, since he hit the sword's edge, his body was pierced without changing his face, he was really brave.

The last sound was Wanyan Chunzhen.

She has arrived with her subordinates.

She wanted to cover up quietly, but it was a pity that Qin Changsinger's elite soldiers were so skilled that she found the enemy almost as soon as her subordinates approached. She didn't even have time to set up the formation, the death squad who hated the Wei Yan coalition army to the bone He had already pounced on him, slashing with knives, swords, spears, and whips, silently but murderously, facing the people brought by Wanyan Chunzhen like a hungry tiger.

Because Xiao Jue was attacking the city fiercely, all the city gates were not spared, and the cavalry on the left and right sides responded to each other, and they would reinforce where there was any change. Wanyan Chunzhen absolutely did not dare to lead the army to open the city gate, otherwise Xiao Jue would definitely entangle him immediately. Not only was it delayed to arrive at the embankment, but it might also be lost to Xiao Jue's hands.

Wanyan Chunzhen brought her own subordinates, not many of them, but all of them were masters, they came out of the city from the west city gate and came here by performing lightness kung fu.

The Death Squad doesn't care who you come from. It's either a colleague or an enemy. The shouts of killing sounded almost instantly. This narrow embankment is beyond the woods. There is only a long open area for camping, and it is impossible to ambush. Even the battlefield couldn't be spread out in a wide range. Those people could only squeeze each other and fight together. With the addition of the awakened dike defenders, it became more and more melee, which led to Wan Yan The masters brought in couldn't be used, and they were trapped in the flow of people, using the same blood and muscles to fight brazenly.
