Chapter 207 Walking in the Snow (6)

After disposing of a Nanya minister, the knights of the Dragon Clan who attacked this night were excited and raised their spirits to a higher level, and then finally turned their attention to the woman standing in the middle again.

They were very much looking forward to the upcoming dialogue between Zhang Dalongtou and the queen, and some people even expected whether Zhang Dalongtou would introduce their respective names and hometowns to the queen, as if this would bring them some proof.

But unexpectedly, after Zhang Xing dealt with Zhang Shizhao, he looked at the queen again, but he was a little less interested. He no longer had the questioning gesture before, and just slightly cupped his hands: "His Royal Highness, please sit down. Go to the backyard to deal with it, but since things are complicated here, please try to stay still in the hall as much as possible."

These words were polite and practical, the queen could only sit down in silence surrounded by a few palace people.

When Zhang Xing saw the other party's cooperation, he didn't say a word. Instead, he went to the side and brought a chair over, and then sat seven or eight steps away from the queen, and then waited without saying a word.

I don't know how long it took, but a quarter of an hour after the restless Knights of the Dragon Gang slaughtered the fourth person who was about to sneak away, a stream of light that was not very conspicuous in the night suddenly flew over and landed on the ground. In the courtyard, there was a figure looking around along the way, quickening his pace, and when he finally broke into the hall, he couldn't hold back his excitement, and his breathing was heavy for a while.

It was Xu Shiying.

"How?" Zhang Xing, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke out again.

"As Da Longtou said, that Xue Liang was indeed no match for me. I found an opportunity to cut off half of his hand in the air, and my true energy was about to dissipate, but he fled into the army camp." Xu Shiying looked at him. Looking away from the queen sitting in the middle, he hastily raised the standard machete stained with blood to answer. "General Zhonglang in the army is quite reliable. He formed an formation along the camp early. I didn't dare to chase him in. I just took advantage of the opening in his back when he landed and bit his shoulder from behind with true energy. , and withdrew back... Unless there is a master who cultivates the true energy of eternal life, he will definitely not be able to fight again within a month."

"That's good, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Xing was also determined, and by the way, pointed his finger at the ground that had been quiet for a long time. "Cao Wang is here, Zhang Shizhao is here, Gao Jiang is here, the queen is here... Shen Ding is also here... Luo Fang is actually unlikely to be the opponent of King Xiongtian, but don't worry about it for now, as long as you can Hurt Xue Liang and come here early, the overall situation has been settled by seven points, and the remaining three points are to prevent the leaders of the two garrison troops from counterattacking at night."

"The empress is here, the prefect is here, the minister and the governor are also here, how dare they urge the army to attack?" Xu Shiying glanced at these people, feeling determined in his heart, and immediately turned around and smiled. "Third brother is very powerful, he used small tricks lightly to reverse the strong and weak, and the victory and defeat are two points... If you want me to say, the matter here has been settled since the third brother was stationed in the horse to push the cart for those servants... These people probably don’t know how we got in until now.”

"This is not the time to talk about these things." Zhang Xing waved his hand slightly, and continued to be serious. "I also think that if the Tunjun doesn't come now, I won't dare to come tonight, but there are still a group of people who should be back soon. It may not be impossible to fight at night, so be extra careful..."

"Li Qingchen, Qin Bao, and Lu Changheng, are these three black ribbons?" Xu Shiying became more energetic in the first battle, and his tone was a little louder. "If these three people come, I am willing to be the third brother."

"Li Qingchen won't be able to fight in the short term, but Qin Bao and Lu Changheng, the two former troops, should each have more than a dozen riders, and they will go to Gushu and Xiayi to scout in exchange. See if you can stop me for a while. Stop." Zhang Xing gave such instructions, and Fu pointed to the surroundings of the hall again. "And it's not just these three people, I'll rest for a while, and I'll leave it to you to deal with... Anyone who wants to escape will be killed, and anyone who wants to talk nonsense will be silenced."

At this point, Zhang Xingfu turned his head to look at the leaders around him: "You too, if you work hard again, divide into two teams, one team rests, and the other team works hard for one or two nights... When you look for a chair, find a chair, close your eyes and rest your mind Just close your eyes and meditate, don't leave, just stay in the hall in the middle of the night."

Some of the leaders who were still waiting for Zhang Dalongtou to introduce the queen were greatly disappointed, but after this battle, how many inside and outside were convinced by three points, but no one dared to speak out, but they responded one after another.

Zhang Xing was also grandiose, so he took a rest in the hall.After a while, as the noise in the hall calmed down again, although there was constant noise and wailing outside the hall, the person still snored slightly and fell asleep on the spot.

To be honest, people are pretty cheap.

These leaders were very disappointed because Zhang Xing did not introduce to the queen.But after a while, as some of the leaders came back to their senses from the previous raid that was so hearty and almost fatal, they became a little uneasy and afraid of the situation. Relaxed a little.

The north wind is cool, and the rain and snow are cool.

It was a winter night, and the north wind outside kept whistling, and the noise and wailing inside and outside the hall did not stop at all, and Zhang Xing, who didn't bother to pay attention to the thoughts of the leaders, slept for an unknown amount of time, and was finally disturbed by the surrounding noises. startled, and opened his eyes.

"Where's Xu Dalang?"

After sweeping over the moaning captives on the ground and outside, and looking at the leaders in the hall who closed their eyes and meditated, Zhang Xing immediately asked Jia Yue who was pacing left and right.

"That Lu Changheng came back first, and Xu Dalang took Zhou Xingfan and Guo Jingke out to stop him, and started fighting outside the annex." Jia Yue held the knife, expressionless, and calmly narrated. "Although he has fought once, it was Ning Dan who fought the strange scriptures and gained the upper hand."

Suddenly, Zhang Xing continued to ask, "What did King Xiong Tian say?"

"There is no explanation, they should still be entangled." Jia Yue continued. "It's not so easy to tell the winner of the alchemy realm, but it's impossible to wait too long."

Zhang Xing nodded, and then asked again and again: "Is there anything else?"

"Yes." Jia Yue suddenly pointed in the direction of the queen behind Zhang Xing. "Before Xu Dalang left, suddenly came a concubine and princess who threw themselves into the trap."

"What do you know?" Zhang Xing was speechless. "Even if the queen is captured, it is also the safest place in the chaos. It is better for the princess and concubines to escape here than to stay in scattered residences outside. How can it be considered a self-inflicted trap?"

As he said that, Zhang Xing couldn't help but follow the other's finger to look, but laughed on the spot.

Without him, the concubine with her head bowed and trembling all over was fine, the princess was actually an acquaintance.

What's more interesting is that when Zhang Xing came to see, the little princess who was hiding behind her mother and poking her head, who was only about eight or nine years old, seemed to recognize him immediately, and immediately smiled back.

Zhang Xing found it interesting, so he recruited casually.

The next moment, before the concubine who lowered her head could react, the little princess jumped out, passed her concubine mother and the queen, and came to Zhang Xing.

For a moment, everyone below the queen, as well as the captives whose legs had been broken, including the leaders and knights of the Dragon Gang who were awake, all looked sideways... Of course, her mother was almost paralyzed with fright.

"Why did you break Eunuch Gao's leg?" The child of this age was of course overly curious, so he asked directly.

"No way." Zhang Xing, who subconsciously raised the bloody knife behind his back, spoke frankly. "Without breaking his leg, he'll run."

"But... aren't you one of Eunuch Gao's subordinates? Mammy said, well, all the men and women in the palace are under the control of Eunuch Gao except our family and Eunuch Niu."

"I used to be, and now I'm not."

"You got promoted?"

"No, I rebelled."

"What do you mean by rebellion?"

"It's just...your father, Eunuch Gao, and these other people always control me. I feel annoyed, so I want to control them instead."

"Can they let you manage?"

"No, and they want to break my legs and throw me into the Luoshui in Xiyuan... So I ran out first, looking for someone who could beat them, and now that I found them, I beat them back, and beat them first I broke my leg, and I’m going to cut through the ice on the river outside, and tie it to a stone to sink..."

The groans that had just erupted in the hall were inexplicably quiet, but the groans outside were revealed again.

The little princess poked her head out of curiosity, and was immediately taken aback, because there were too many people, and the visual effect was quite scary when they piled up together. Fortunately, Xu Shiying probably handled things better than someone else. Someone put out the extra lights outside, so it was impossible to see the red snow in the yard.

"Did you beat so many people?" Looking back, the little princess was obviously a little nervous.

"Yes." Zhang Xing tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded. "They won't let me beat Eunuch Gao and Xianggong Zhang, so I can only beat them first."

"Don't they hurt?"

"It hurts a lot."

"Isn't it cold outside?"

"It's very cold."

"Then you are pretty bad." The little princess also tilted her head, and made a more accurate evaluation by the way, which caused the figure beside the queen to visibly tremble again.

"Indeed." Zhang Xing sighed. "No way, adults are equally bad. In this world, if you are not bad, you can't live or do anything..."

"But I still like you." The little princess thought for a while, turned her head around, and gave an unexpected statement.

It was rare for Zhang Xing to be dazed for a moment this night, and then he asked seriously: "Why? Is it because last year at the foot of the northern mountain, when your father abandoned you and ran away, did I take you on horseback?"

"No, it was earlier, when I was looking at the coffin in the car, they all made me cry, and they all looked at me with a straight face. The concubine mother secretly hugged me and cried, and you are the only one who is willing to smile at me. It's the same tonight, everyone is crying and stern, only you are smiling at me..."

"..."

"Why didn't you speak?"

"I was thinking about what happened at that time. It's been a long time, more than a year... So, at such a young age, you have been a long-standing widow." Zhang Xing came back to his senses for the second time, slightly Grinning, showing a row of teeth. "It's a pity that I don't deserve a yin marriage."

"Mother and concubine, what is a widowed family? What is a marriage with a yin?" The little princess was not frightened, but turned around in confusion.

Her concubine mother was only in her early thirties, standing beside the queen like two generations, but maybe because of this, she didn't dare to say a word at all, but she couldn't help but look up to peek at her daughter.

The little princess also seemed to notice something was wrong with her mother's expression, but she was a little dazed, so she went back to look at Zhang Xing.

"Go to your mother and concubine." Zhang Xing sighed upon seeing this. "There are a lot of things going on tonight, you are young, go to bed early, wrap yourself in a blanket, just don't catch a cold."

Only then did the little princess turn around with a hint of doubt, but she did not forget to bow to the queen who was the only one sitting in the hall, proclaiming herself queen, and then flew to her birth mother's arms.

"Add a chair, find a blanket for..." Zhang Xingnu mouth gestured, but he became a little dazed, as if he wanted to ask the other party's name or title (although she is young, she should have something to say when she became a widow last year) , but for some reason, he stopped there instead.

After talking halfway, but without delaying Jia Yue's understanding, he immediately moved a chair, and found a clean blanket in the side room outside the courtyard. The concubine didn't say a word, but quickly hugged her daughter and hid behind the queen live.

So far, the cordial and frank exchange between the leader of the rebels and Princess Wei has finally come to an end.

But to be honest, although this scene is a bit bizarre, it is still a bit disappointing... After all, the leaders around, after stepping into the hall, thought that there would be a more classic scene tonight. Debating the legality of rebellion, Zhang Dalongtou will lead everyone to show enough etiquette to the queen, or Zhang Dalongtou will kill a few people to add to the fun.

But nothing, Mr. Zhang sealed Mr. Zhang's mouth, broke many people's legs, and then sat in silence with the queen, and even snored, but a little princess came out like a rabbit.

Just like to those servants before, he said a lot of nonsense for no reason.

Of course, a little bit of disappointment can't hide the excitement and results of the knights of the Dethrone Dragon Gang tonight. The prestige of Zhang Dalongtou has not diminished. From tonight to tomorrow morning, he is here to say the same thing for the time being.

But soon, after the little princess was settled, Queen Ye took the initiative to speak: "Zhang Qing..."

"Your Highness is calling me?" Zhang Xing, who was trying to listen to the movement outside, turned around, unable to hide his surprise for a moment.

"Yes." The queen spoke earnestly.

"Please also call me Zhang Longtou, or Zhang Sanlang... Zhang Qing is unnecessary." Zhang Xing calmly responded.

At this time, whether it was the senior captives who were languishing on the ground, or the other leaders of the Dragon Gang who were resting or vigilant, they all raised their spirits to look at this side.

"That's good, Zhang Sanlang." The queen took a breath and came to the hall to ask. "I won't ask about the current situation, I just ask you, how are you going to deal with us people?"

Zhang Xing thought about it for a while, and still didn't hide anything: "Today's matter was originally due to my impromptu decision. Next, if Luo Fang Luo Zhu Shou wins and attacks later, or whoever of the two Zhonglang generals encourages the army to attack, we will naturally I want to take His Highness and a few senior members of the hall to break through; but if they are worried that they will die together, or if they dare not do it because they have lost their leaders, then I really have no idea how to deal with everyone in the hall... The only thing I can say is, Just please rest assured, Your Highness, I and the Chulong Gang have no intention of disturbing His Highness...as long as Your Highness cooperates, there is no need to worry about the safety of the harem."

The queen nodded, which seemed to be no different from what she thought.

But obviously, the other party only promised the security guarantee for the harem, but did not mention anything else.

As a queen, it is impossible for her not to ask and fight.

"What about the people outside the hall? They all had their legs broken, and the weather is so cold, so some people will freeze to death and get frostbite?" the queen continued to ask.

"There is a courtyard to shelter from the cold wind, if there are no other wounds, it wouldn't be so exaggerated." Zhang Xing blurted out. "And there is still a source of fire around... If the situation stabilizes in the second half of the night, if you free your hand, and His Highness is worried, I will ask people to light a fire and try to arrange them properly... As for the Mingri Glacier, there may be one, but it needs to be solved." Looking at people, it is impossible to throw innocent people into the river."

The queen reluctantly nodded, but continued to ask after a little hesitation: "What about going outside?"

"It's rare that Your Highness can think more externally, which makes me more or less convinced." Zhang Xing laughed. "But it's a pity that I didn't wantonly invade from the outside. In a short period of time, life and death outside are only decided by them."

The queen sighed instead.

At this time, there was a loud shout mixed with true energy from outside, the voice rolled like thunder, and immediately alarmed everyone: "Are you Qin Bao? Sure enough, you are good at martial arts! Xu Shiying from Caozhou is here, look at him For Mr. Zhang's sake, I won't kill you tonight! Take this Lu Changheng and get out!"

Zhang Xing listened for a while, then smiled for a long time, and turned around to face him: "Your generation has defeated the enemy, and I will recognize Xiao Xu with the Queen later, but I really need to think about how to deal with these people and this The situation is over."

The queen was naturally silent, and those people on the ground and those in the courtyard, counting from Zhang Shizhao and others, counted as one, but their expressions became more depressed.

Otherwise, would he still be able to stand up and kick Zhang Thief?
After a while, Xu Shiying returned with Xiao Zhou and others.

Aware of the thoughts of these leaders, Zhang Xing stood up, but started with Xu Shiying, and introduced and identified the knights' names, hometowns, and ages with the queen one by one, which really rekindled the atmosphere in the hall.

I don't know what's the point of telling the queen, but it's really hot, everyone is really excited, and I feel that tonight's raid is really a success.

While the hot pot was cooking in the hall, Qin Bao and several knights had already left the core area of ​​the annex in embarrassment with Lu Changheng, who was injured by Xu Shiying, and other wounded, and were about to go to the outer garrison...but suddenly In the meantime, as a gust of north wind stagnated, Qin Erlang suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him shouting, but it seemed to be calling for help.

It's just that the movement is too chaotic to make any guarantees.

"Second Master, let's go!"

The remaining patrol riders around were exhausted and terrified. "It must be a real call for help, but how many can we save? What's more, the voice is from the other side of the building, what if we disturb that Ning Dan?"

Qin Bao shook his head in response: "Since it's a real call for help, it means that a brother is really trapped in it...you go first, and I will find someone by myself."

As he said that, he actually handed over the reins of the spotted leopard beast that was carrying Lu Changheng to his subordinates, and then turned around to follow the sound to save people.

It took a long time to find a stick of incense, and sure enough, a person was found on the snow at the edge of the annex, but it turned out to be Li Qingchen who climbed hundreds of steps with his arms in spite of his abdominal injury. Already gassed like a gossamer, it is difficult to move.

It wasn't until Qin Bao came over that he smiled wryly: "If it wasn't for Qin Er, you would be frozen in the mud like a shoe today."

Qin Erlang's heart was gloomy, he suppressed many thoughts, leaned over and carried the opponent on his body, and then chased his subordinates to the agreed place to garrison the army.When they went in and settled down, they saw Xue Liang who had lost half of his hand and was pale. He was even more speechless.

And soon, as expected, with a flash of pale golden light, Luo Fang, who was about to bottom out, fled to the army barracks in embarrassment. He also suffered obvious internal injuries and staggered.

Everyone gathered at this time, and naturally knew that the queen's residence was captured, the central palace was captured, and then the upper and lower cities were captured, the prefect of the county was taken down, the minister of the south office and the governor of the north office were also taken down. It was Shen Zhushou, It should have also been taken down, and the main force of the three groups of Jing'an Terrace patrolling in the annex should have been killed or injured, or at least lost their combat effectiveness.

For a time, there were only two Tunjun Zhonglang generals left, a county magistrate, a captain, and a local black ribbon, plus two slightly injured Zhu Shou, one slightly injured and one seriously injured Black ribbon, and a Qin precious.

The situation is as bad as it gets.

At this time, Luo Fang, who seemed to be the only one who could make up his mind, pressed his chest and thought about it. After thinking for a long time, he actually looked at Qin Bao first: "Qin Er, tell yourself that you are the only one here at Jing'an Tower. It's all right, and you came to inform the military situation first and lured me out of the annex... What's going on here?"

Li Qingchen was lying on one side of the couch, and had just recovered a bit, when he heard the words, he scolded desperately: "Luo Fang! Did Qin Erbao's reconnaissance ever make mistakes? I was arrogant and complacent before, and I wanted to go to Gushu alone Wasn’t it you? Qin Er can speak? Did you really think that everyone present at that time was dead? Besides, if Qin Erlang was a spy, Lu Heishou and I would have died in the other hall just now. The group of people must die!"

Even Lu Changheng, who had never spoken much, said in a muffled voice while pressing the wound on his thigh on the opposite stool: "Luo Zhushou, the person in front of you is Zhang Xing, the dragon slaying knife. Others don't know about his skills, so don't we? This person's ingenuity, ability, and determination, and having such a powerful force not weaker than ours, can manipulate him, and he arranged it in the dark, and suddenly killed us with one blow, isn't it normal?"

It was Qin Bao who finally said in a deep voice: "I admit, those people must have looked at Third Brother Zhang's affection, and did not do anything twice... But I am really not a spy."

Luo Fang glanced at Qin Bao, then at Lu Changheng, then at Li Qingchen, whose face was distorted while clutching his stomach after talking angrily, and Xue Liang, whose face was as white as paper, his heart sank completely... because things have come to this day , He has already realized that even he himself understands that Qin Er is definitely not a spy, and what he just said is just an expression of anger after the overall defeat overnight, and he still doesn't know how to deal with it.

If you lose, you have already lost, but not knowing what to do next is the biggest trouble.

"There are so many captives, what should we do?" In the night, after satisfying the almost boring demands of the leaders of the Dragon Clan, and waiting for the return of Xiong Bonan's victory, Zhang Xing soon realized that he It is necessary to seriously consider how to deal with these prisoners and how to clean up the situation.

Do you want to break out of the encirclement by night with only the queen and a few prisoners?So many captives left, just ignore it?

Are you kidding me?
