〖In the eighth month of the 14th year of Tongtai, the public was proficient in military training, so he made a contract with Rong Yuan to take Xiangyang together. , Destroyed Xiangyang, and heard that Jiangzhe, the Marquis of Chu State, was defending Gucheng, so he mobilized his army to attack it. Zhe was playing the qin in the city, and the public heard it and retreated, sighing and saying, "My teacher should not commit crimes lightly, just stay for a night."

When Jingling's troops retreated, Rong Yuan was furious when he heard that the Duke had taken Xiangyang, and even made two false accusations that the Duke supported the soldiers and respected himself. At that time, rumors began to spread among the people, and the song said: "King Lu issued a new order, and a thousand battalions called together."

The public did not know what was going on in the south of the Yangtze River, so he attacked Gucheng for ten days, and the generals came down. Knowing that Xiangyang was in danger, he abandoned Gucheng and returned to the division, and the Yong army was defeated outside the city. When I heard about it, I even suspected that the public was secretly communicating with the people of Yong, so I urged the lord of the country to issue an edict to call him back. Had to return. Lin Feng cried and said, "The great cause has not yet been completed, and the Middle Road has crossed south, and there will be no hope of the Central Plains from now on."

The public class teacher, the elders of Xiangyang stopped the horse and said: "We will help the general to defend the city, and the Yong army will rule Xiangyang with military law, and I will not forgive him."

When the public heard the words and wept, he slowed down and waited for the people to move south. When Yong Jun heard the anger, he attacked hard and did not retreat.

In the ninth month, Gongban went to Anlu, and envoys were sent to the army to urge the public to enter the capital lightly, but the generals might persuade him to oppose him.

— "The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties·Zhongwu Gongzhuan"〗

Wei Ying knew that at this time, the main general of Huaixi, Shi Guan, was in Shouchun, but Lu Yun was leading the flying cavalry battalion against the Yong army under Zhong Li. Over the years, Lu Yun has traveled between Suzhou and Xiaoxian, avoiding the enemy's sharp edge and attacking. The enemy's weak spot is already a very famous young general. Especially in the past two years, Lu Yun and Shi Yujin often went into battle together, looking at each other on the left and each other on the right, causing the enemy soldiers to turn their backs. If they can get Lu Yun's support , Raising his arms, at least the Huaixi Army will support him. Father and son are connected, or Lu Can can be forced to rebel. You don't even have to raise the flag of rebellion, as long as you deliberately provoke a border provocation and start a war with Dayong, Shang Weijun will definitely not dare to kill Lu Can easily. Thinking of this, Wei Ying rushed to Zhong Li overnight, regardless of his hard work. He knew that once Lu Can was captured, the imperial envoy would also go to Huaixi, so he must hurry up and dare to stand in front of the envoy.

On September 22, Wei Ying, who was dressed in dust, rushed to Shouchun. He was not ready to enter the city, but rushed to Zhongli to meet Lu Yun. Unexpectedly, he saw a man in silver armor at the city gate. The young general wearing a blood-red cloak led more than ten personal guards and rushed out from the city gate. The young general carried a silver gun, and where the gun shadow flashed, the sergeants who were guarding the city all fled, allowing the young man to rush out. city gate.

Wei Ying avoided the road and looked around, only to see that there seemed to be a person sitting in front of the young general, and he wrapped the person firmly with a big cloak. But Wei Ying felt a chill in his heart when he saw it. Although the young general was dressed in military uniform, he also recognized that it was Lu Yun's wife Shi Yujin. Shi Yujin is an unusual woman. She has been fighting side by side with Lu Yun for the past few years. She is a lieutenant of the flying cavalry battalion. She is braver and stronger than men. name. She is a very famous young general in Southern Chu and the daughter of Shi Guan, how could she come out of Shouchun City. When Wei Ying was hesitating, those people had passed by him like a rush of lightning, and the cloak was blown up by the wind, revealing the face of the person in front of Shi Yujin, who was actually a beautiful and beautiful girl. What shocked Wei Ying was that the girl was actually Lu Can's only daughter, Lu Mei. Shi Yujin was already five months pregnant, otherwise she would not have left Zhongli and returned to Shouchun to recuperate, but at this time the horse galloped wildly. Could it be that the imperial envoy had already made a move against Huaixi, or Shi Guan had done something. Before Wei Ying had figured out the matter, she saw a sergeant in the color of the forbidden army rushing out of the city, arrogantly chasing after Shi Yujin and his party.

Wei Ying almost didn't fall off the horse. This forbidden army was too arrogant. They were chasing Shi Guan's daughter in Huaixi. Shi Guan only had to give a hint, and someone would encircle and destroy them. That's it, doubts arose in my heart. Could it be that Shi Guan took refuge in Shang Weijun so quickly, so he wanted to harm Lu Mei, but Shi Yujin violated his father's order and rescued Meier. Then, Wei Ying saw a group of Huaixi Army cavalry also rushed out of the city gate, and his heart became more and more anxious. At this moment, Wei Ying didn't want to go into the city to see Shi Guan. If Shi Guan had already turned to Shang Weijun, then he would be Rescue Shi Yujin is completely useless. If not, then you don't have to worry about it. It's better to rush to Zhongli immediately to make Lu Yun feel better. It's just that the shadow of failure has already poured into Wei Ying's heart. Could it be that loyalty and righteousness such as the Lu family can't be seen by the sky, and only let that insidious and cunning person succeed? Could it be that he really has no chance at all

Shi Yujin's face hidden under the helmet was already pale. She hadn't ridden a horse for several months, but she felt a lot of rusty, not to mention the faint sense of discomfort made her feel a little dizzy, but she still sat firmly on the horse, unwilling to show it. A little tired. Holding Mei Er tightly, her heart was full of anger. More than ten days ago, she learned that her father-in-law Lu Can was harmed by slander, and she felt uneasy. What shocked her even more was that the personal guard beside her father secretly came to tell him last night that Shang Weijun had sent a messenger, saying that the general had been captured and brought to Beijing, and he wanted to keep the three brothers and sisters of the Lu family in Huaixi a secret. Captured back to Jianye, and his father had agreed, but only asked to keep himself alone.

Shi Yujin hated her father's injustice, and did not delay, she immediately went to find Lu Mei, and rushed out of Shouchun City with only her personal guards. She didn't care to tell Meier the truth, she just hurryed on her way. Fortunately, the sergeants in the city didn't dare to fight with her, so she easily rushed out of the city gate. Not long after she left the city, she noticed that the forbidden army was chasing her, and she was so upset that she led her bodyguards back to the horse to kill.

Although those banned troops have also been trained in recent years, they are only newborn calves compared to the Huaixi military elite cavalry who have been fighting for years. Although they greeted them without fear, they were easily defeated by Shi Yujin and his party. Taking the lead, a shot sunk into the chest of the leader of the forbidden army. Shi Yujin was trying to lift the corpse away, but she felt that her hand softened, her strength dissipated, and blood splattered. Her silver armor was covered in blood. Fortunately, Lu Mei had already She protected her chest with a cloak, so she didn't get any blood. Shi Yujin took a deep breath, pointed the silver spear to the soldiers of the Imperial Army who were fleeing in all directions, and said loudly, "No one will be left."

At this moment, the smoke was billowing in the distance, but a middle-aged general rushed over with more than a hundred Huaixi sergeants. Those Huaixi sergeants stretched their wings, like their arms outstretched, to protect the guards of the Imperial Army who fled in their direction, and the leading general said loudly: "Major General, the general has an order, please Major General and Miss Lu immediately return to Shouchun. ."

Shi Yujin said angrily: "Chen Ming, how dare you come to take me, do you forget who took the revenge on you for killing your brother, you are worthy of Brother Yun and me."

The middle-aged general had a shy look on his face, but said uneasily: "Major General, I dare not refuse to obey the order of the army, the general ordered me to tell the general, the world is big, and there is no place to escape, instead of staying alive, it is better to fight for loyalty In addition to the fact that the general will write to the letter, it may not be without life, and I also ask the major general to be considerate of the general’s hardships and not to assume the name of infidelity and injustice.”

Shi Yujin's nature is like a raging fire, he pointed a silver spear at Chen Ming and scolded: "I don't care about loyalty, if it's about loyalty, who else can beat the general, but with the will of the lord, you can put the father-in-law in jail, I won't let Brother Yun, the second brother and Meier go to Jianye to die. Go back and tell my father that he also facilitated the marriage at the beginning, and our Shi family was even brought up by the Lu family. If he was ungrateful, he would help the If the traitor comes to embarrass our husband and wife, even if I die, I won't recognize him as a father."

A strange look flashed in Chen Ming's eyes when he heard the words, and said, "Since the major general said that, then the last general can only offend him. Your Excellency, the general has a life, and you are not allowed to hurt the major general and Miss Mei."

Shi Yujin was furious when he heard the words. He never thought that Chen Ming would actually dare to take action. Just as he was about to raise his gun, a few guards grabbed it and said loudly, "Let's go first, the major general, and we'll break it later."

Shi Yujin was stunned. If it was in the past, let alone breaking his subordinates, he would be a step behind in his charge, and he would regret it for a few days. But thinking about his current situation, and thinking of Mei Er in his arms, it is better to go first than to be trapped here. , not to mention that each other is not an enemy, as long as they escape, those sergeants can abandon their weapons and surrender, and if they want to come to Chen Ming, it will not be difficult for them. Thinking of this, she said sharply: "Chen Ming, if you kill them, sooner or later you will die. Under my gun." After saying that, he rode his horse and ran away, and eight guards followed, and half of the guards automatically stayed behind to stop the pursuers. But for a moment, the backs of Shi Yujin and others disappeared without a trace. Those guards fought desperately to resist, Chen Ming was blocked for a moment, and he was too late to catch up. Surrender, go back with me to see the general and plead guilty."

Those personal guards were all from Shiguan's old army, but they were chosen by Shi Yujin to be the personal guards. If it wasn't for the major general, they would not have fought against Chen Ming. Hearing that, they were all heartbroken, and two personal guards were shot down first. When they got off the horse, the other guards also dropped their swords with a wry smile and let the sergeants under Chen Ming bind them up.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a forbidden army came up with a steel knife and slashed down. Chen Ming and others did not expect that when a guard fell in a pool of blood, the forbidden army was restrained by the rest of Huaixi sergeants, and the forbidden army was still there. Unyieldingly said: "These rebellious thieves should be killed. If Chen Xiaowei protects them, it will be the same crime."

A fierce light flashed in Chen Ming's eyes, his mind changed, thinking of the general's strict order, he finally resisted his anger and said: "They have violated the military law, naturally the general will deal with them, but you don't need to worry about it, this is Huaixi, not Jianye. "The Imperial Guard finally realized the anger in the eyes of everyone, thinking that now he is only a few people, if he is killed and silenced, but he can't even say the word "wrongful", he should go back to see the imperial envoy and add more fuel to it. Thinking of this, his arrogance immediately descended, and his eyes even showed fear. Chen Ming gave him a cold look and said loudly, "Back to the camp!" After saying that, he stepped forward and picked up the body of the slain personal guard, mounted his horse and ran away. The rest of the Huaixi sergeants looked at each other and cut off the ropes of those who surrendered to their guards, letting them mount their horses and go back on their own, lest they be mutilated by the forbidden troops again and turn around and leave. Those who survived were secretly angry in their hearts, but they didn't care about the bodies of their companions. They just rode their horses and followed the Huaixi Army away, so as not to die in a puzzling manner after being left alone.

Shi Yujin rode his horse for a long time before he remembered to see Lu Mei's situation. He ordered everyone to stop their mounts, lift up their visors, open their cloak, and inspected it. Seeing that there were no scars on Lu Mei's body, I was relieved. With a whimper, she looked in surprise, but saw that Lu Mei's beautiful face was full of tears, she felt Shi Yujin's nervous eyes, she raised her head, summoned up her courage and asked, "Sister-in-law, what happened? Why? They said that Daddy was jailed, why did Uncle Shi want to arrest us?"

Shi Yujin felt a pain in his heart and said, "Meier, you don't have to worry, although my father is a little bit difficult, but there is no room for change, my father is wrong, and I despise him, but I think he won't kill him. , let's go find your big brother first, and there will be a flying cavalry camp to protect you, and no one dares to do anything to us."

There were tears in Lu Meiming's eyes, she whispered: "I know that everyone is reluctant to tell me the truth, and the queen mother wants me to be a concubine, but I don't want to, but the second brother tricked me to come to Shouchun, but Don't tell me the truth, the same is true for sister-in-law now, it's all Meier's useless, can't help everyone, and also drags sister-in-law down."

Shi Yujin became more and more sour, and said in a low voice, "Silly girl, you are the jewel in the palm of the Lu family. If you want to worry about battles on the battlefield and court battles, what else do you want us to do? Don't worry, I'm just fighting. Your life will also protect your safety, at most your elder brother and I will shoot out of Huaixi."

When Lu Mei heard this, tears rolled down her cheeks. She leaned on Shi Yujin's chest and choked up. The eight guards were also eclipsed, and one of them said bitterly, "The general is very loyal, how to rely on the prime minister this time, even the major general. I don't care." As soon as the words came out, they felt lost, and saw that Shi Yujin's face was getting paler and blood was running out, Lu Mei couldn't help but exclaimed and stretched out her hand to support Shi Yujin. Fan's rush to escape from Shouchun is not as painful as her father's actions. The personal guard felt remorse and slapped himself severely. Shi Yujin opened his eyes and said lightly, "It's none of your business, that's all, let's go to Zhongli first."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone agreed in unison, but at this moment, a cold voice said: "Zhongli is far from the road, I am afraid that you will not be able to go, or let this seat send General Shi and Miss Lu to Huangquan Road. Bar."

Everyone heard the sound and looked around, but they saw on the left path, a woman in blue clothes walking more than a hundred feet away. She seemed to be moving very slowly, but in a flash, she was close to the front. Although there are some traces of time at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, she is no less attractive than the 28th girl. She has nothing on her body except a Qingfeng sword on her back, and she looks more and more simple and unpretentious.

Shi Yujin frowned, looking at the woman in Tsing Yi. She had also learned Emei martial arts, not only martial arts that can only be fought on the battlefield. At a glance, she could see that this woman's eyes were cold, and her sword was arrogant. She was a rare master. , If the battlefield is to fight, I still have a few chances, if it is to fight in the rivers and lakes, I will definitely be defeated.

Gently patted Lu Mei, who was trembling slightly, Shi Yujin said loudly, "Who are you, how dare you block the way of this general?"

A hint of ridicule flashed in the eyes of the woman in Tsing Yi, and she said lightly, "This seat, Feng Feifei, may not have heard of this name before coming to the Major General."

Shi Yujin felt a little dazed and felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard the name before. For some reason, Shi Yujin felt that the woman's sarcastic expression was not aimed at him, but more like a self-mockery. But at this moment, she couldn't think about it, she winked, and one of the guards came over and whispered: "Offend." Then she stretched out her hands to hug Lu Mei and put it on his horse. Although Lu Mei was a little uneasy, the guard was already in her thirties. She was like her elder, and she acted cautiously. Lu Mei was worried about Shi Yujin, so she didn't show a strange expression.

Shi Yujin took Lu Mei aside, and with a sense of relief, pointed the spear at the woman in Tsing Yi and said, "No matter who you are, if you want to take the life of Major General Ben, you have to ask if my silver spear will answer."

The woman in Tsing Yi, Feng Feifei, gave a cold smile. Shi Yujin only felt a flower in front of her eyes. The sword shadow in the sky was already in front of her. Shi Yujin couldn't care to distinguish where the sword was coming from. A strong sense of crisis surged in her heart. Stab out, straight into the center of the sword shadow, this shot is full of the vigor of bloody battles in the battlefield, it is already a lose-lose move, a crisp sound, like a shock from the snow sword light, but the sword light shows no signs of weakening, just like The tide rushed over. Shi Yujin only felt that there were sword shadows in front of her eyes, and she couldn't even see the figure of the woman in Tsing Yi. She simply closed her eyes slightly and did not look at the dazzling sword light. , The shadows of the guns are like pear blossoms, scattered like snow. With the marksmanship of thousands of troops, he actually blocked the sword light, but Shi Yujin knew that he was just relying on the experience of disregarding life and death and the experience of bloody battles on the battlefield. , you will be wounded by the sword. Shi Yujin is a valiant general on the battlefield, not a woman from the rivers and lakes. Thinking of this, he doesn't care about the rules, and loudly said: "Everyone, go up and kill this person."

The guards had already been ready to fight. When they heard Shi Yujin's order, except for the two guards who stayed behind to protect Lu Mei, the rest of the guards had already raised their guns. kill. Although the woman's swordsmanship was brilliant, she was under siege by Shi Yujin and the six guards, and she was in a situation where she was more defensive than offensive, not to mention that the six men and horses helped.

Feng Feifei was a little annoyed, and sneered: "Although Shiguan's daughter is young, she is a valiant general in the field, and she is brave and good at fighting. Now it seems that she is only relying on a large number of people." , Within a zhang and Xu Fangyuan, there are sword waves and snow shadows, rolling like a tide.

Shi Yujin ignored her. If he was preoccupied with anything on the battlefield, there was no possibility of winning. A silver spear became more and more magical, and the sword waves leaped and leaped, like a dragon playing in the water. Gradually forgetting the crisis-riddled situation, years of bloody battles, life-and-death crises, coupled with frustration and indifference to life and death, she miraculously entered the realm of gunmen and gunmen, only feeling the silver gun in her hand. As if he had his own life, he automatically blocked the enemy's attack and stabbed at the enemy's vital points. The crisp sound of guns and swords clashing was incessant. Although Feng Feifei was highly skilled in martial arts, after all, the sword was not as good as a long spear, and he only felt that his inner organs were repeatedly affected. Shocked, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, and I had the idea of getting out.

But right at this moment, Shi Yujin suddenly felt a pain in her stomach. She fought so hard that she was already feeling the gas of her fetus. Feng Feifei was a top-ranking swordsman in the world. Taking the opportunity to shout fiercely, silver light shot out of his hands, blood splashed, and he shouted several times. Several guards were already clutching their throats and fell to the horse. Fei unexpectedly took advantage of the rare opportunity to kill the six guards who were assisting in the back. The sword light converged, Feng Feifei had already withdrawn a few feet, and her face looked a bit pale. She also tried her best with this sword. Consume a lot.

Shi Yujin just held her hand, and several of the bodyguards who accompanied her in the bloody battle had already died on the spot. She couldn't help grief, but the pain in her stomach came again, and she couldn't help being terrified. At this time, Feng Feifei was already fit and pounced. Shi Yujin didn't dare to fight anymore, and said sadly: "Come on." Before the voice fell, he had already galloped into the wilderness, and the bodyguard who was protecting Lu Mei also chased after him with his whip, while the other was originally holding a knife. The bodyguard who was protecting Lu Mei rushed towards the woman in Tsing Yi. The three and two horses hadn't run far before they heard screams behind them. The only remaining guard looked back and saw that his brother's head flew up and his body was being kicked off the horse by the woman in Tsing Yi. , The woman had already landed on the saddle and was about to chase after her. On the horse ahead, Shi Yujin was already crouching on the horse's back and seemed to have fallen into a coma. The guard felt miserable in his heart, and his livid complexion showed a ferocious look. He said loudly, "Miss Mei, you are protecting the Major General." After speaking, he left the saddle, landed on the ground, stood in the middle of the road, and flew towards him. 's pursuit.

Lu Mei cried out in pain, but although she is young and knowledgeable, she is also the daughter of a general. She knows that life and death are at stake at this moment, and the two and three lives are in her own hands. Fortunately, she can also have some riding skills. At this moment, Shi Yujin had lost consciousness, her body was shaky, Lu Mei's heart fluttered, and she flew away, regardless of her life and death, she jumped onto the saddle behind Shi Yujin, and her grip had loosened. horse reins. Feeling a cold sweat, Lu Mei secretly rejoiced. Originally, when she practiced this trick with her second brother, she would fall off the horse nine times out of ten. Fortunately, there was a family guard who did not break her neck. Pro-ban is forbidden to practice such dangerous tricks again, but fortunately this time I got away with it. After calming down a little, she was afraid that the woman in blue clothes was chasing after her. She didn't have a whip in her hand. She was ruthless and pulled out the dagger she used to defend her waist and stabbed it at the horse's buttocks. Lu Mei only felt the wind blowing in her ears, and she couldn't see the scenery on both sides. She could only hug Shi Yujin tightly, tighten the reins and let the horse run wildly.

But she didn't know that Feng Feifei was gnashing her teeth and scolding behind her. How could she still chase after him? The martial arts of the personal guard who finally blocked her were insignificant. Unexpectedly, there were whistling sounds of different lengths from the mouth. It was rushing in all directions, and even the war horse under her was mad, trying her best to throw her off. When she lost her mind, she let go of the reins. Fortunately, she was extremely successful and flew up without being injured by the frightened horse. Seeing that the horse that could be used to chase the enemy was lost, she could only stab the guard to vent her anger. Unexpectedly, the guard actually hugged her right leg desperately. Although she was in her thirties, she was still unmarried. She couldn't help but panic. She chopped off the guard's hands and got out. . Seeing the blood-red eyes of the guard's wide-open eyes, her anger welled up in her heart, and she slashed the body of the guard into seventeen or eight parts with a fierce sword before finally dispelling her anger. Looking into the distance, she didn't know where the two targets had fled, so she could only sigh and prepare to go to Zhongli to wait. She moved her body, but felt a pain in her vest, and then the feeling of numbness spread from her back to her whole body. She tried to lift the sword with difficulty, but when she released her hand, the long sword fell to the ground, and then her body fell forward, and she felt When her body lost consciousness, she tried her best to shout: "Who is it? It's not a hero."

A cold voice came from behind: "The three girls of Fengyi Sect have now become assassins who hunt down the families of loyal ministers and famous generals. Could it be that this is a famous disciple? In my opinion, they are not as good as these loyal soldiers who protect the Lord. It's a pity that I came a step late, these heroic men, Miss Feng, under Jiuquan, I don't know if you have the face to see the respected teacher."

Feng Feifei could feel the passing of her life, her eyes gradually darkened, and hissed: "Who are you, I want to know who you are?"

The man behind him chanted: "Loose flowers and flowing water are two loves. Hate is unfounded. Dreams are hard to come true. Leaning all over Langan, the wind is still clear. ) People who are dying, why do you need to know so many things, do you still want to entrust your dreams to your seniors and sisters?”

Fuzzy images appeared in Feng Feifei's mind, the misery of the death of both parents when she was a young girl, the glory and glory after joining the master's door, the hard work of practicing swordsmanship to win the master's favor, the scenes of the teachers and sisters chatting and laughing, scene by scene. When she got up, gradually, everything turned into a cloud of smoke, her body gradually stopped struggling, and her eyes lost their vigour.

The man turned Feng Feifei's body over, his eyes fell on her blue-gray jade face, and sighed: "Although you only know what others say, but you have been keeping yourself clean all these years, and you have not humiliated your teacher too much, now that you have Even if you die, I don’t want you to suffer more humiliation, Qing Ben, beautiful woman, how can you be a thief, and today you return to the loess, and don’t want to renew your grudges.” After that, the man poured the medicine in the jade bottle on Feng Feifei’s body. , But for a moment, the pink beauty turned into a pool of clear water, seeping into the ground, leaving only a few scattered things, that person was buried with loess, and then walked along the horseshoe prints, and soon disappeared into the wilderness.

On September 23, in Zhongli City, Lu Yun, who had just returned from the Suzhou battlefield, and Wei Ying, who had been waiting in Zhongli all night, learned the news of Shi Yujin and Lu Mei's disappearance. Wei Ying regretted not protecting the two daughters and went to Zhongli together. Lu Yun's expression was as calm as water, without a trace of agitation, and he didn't seem to care, but Wei Ying could clearly sense the deep sadness in this young man. After consoling Lu Yun a few words, Wei Ying opened his mouth to persuade Lu Yun to raise troops to save his father, but Lu Yun just shook his head without saying a word, a light flashed in the eyes of Lu Feng, who was already tearful next to him, and said sharply, "Brother, you just don't hate it. They made my sister-in-law and sister disappear, don't they care about father's life?"

Lu Yun withdrew his indifferent gaze and said, "I have sworn to serve the country with the same loyalty as daddy, and I will die without regrets. If daddy is bound and refuses to rebel, how can I ruin the name of daddy's loyalty."

Lu Feng said angrily: "In the name of loyalty and righteousness, can you ignore your family's life and death? They want to kill them all, not only to kill father, but I'm afraid they will kill you, even sister-in-law and Meier, that is Mother and younger brother can't escape death, why should our Lu family have to die to the death, it is loyal and righteous, bastard!"

Anger flashed across Lu Yun's face, he waved a slap, knocked Lu Feng to the ground, pointed at Lu Feng and scolded, "If you have this heart, then you are not a descendant of my Lu family. Have you forgotten what Daddy taught you every day?"

Lu Feng spat blood from his mouth and said tragically, "Father always said that Lu's children should not be loyal even if they die, that they would not regret their lives for the country, and would not hesitate to honor or disgrace for the people of Li. But I am not reconciled, and I will never be reconciled."

Lu Yun said coldly: "Since you remember, how dare you make such a rhetoric, if Daddy is willing to rebel, how can he be bound to Beijing, how can I rebel if Daddy is still like this, if I send troops to kill Jianye, I'm afraid I just happen to do it. When the Yongjun vanguard is appointed, then the traitor can justifiably kill his father. As a son of man, how can he be trapped in disloyalty and injustice. What's more, he does not want to see hundreds of millions of Li Shu in Jiangnan die in civil strife. , I also think so, even if our family is dead, if we can avoid civil strife and disaster, we will die in the right place."

Tears of blood dripped from Lu Feng's eyes, and he hissed, "Could it be that the lives of mother, sister-in-law, Mei Er, and younger brother didn't matter to the elder brother at all?"

A trace of pain flashed in Lu Yun's eyes, and he said softly: "Second brother, mother and younger brother are now Jianye, if I raise troops, I will definitely kill them first. Although Yu Jin and Mei Er are missing, they haven't seen them yet. The body, maybe there is a possibility of surviving. Daddy and I died for the country without any regrets, but you can't stay here. Now you change your name and surname immediately, fly away, and leave a line of cigarettes for my Lu family. It's your credit."

Hearing this, Lu Feng wept, "Big Brother, no, let's go with me. Instead of killing them, let's go together."

Lu Yun turned his back and said lightly: "In Lu's family, apart from my father, I am the only one in the army. If I escape, the traitor will definitely add guilt and frame my father, not to mention that when I am away for a day, the traitor will I can’t be at ease, and I will definitely not let my mother and younger brother go. If I go to jail, they will relax their pursuit of Yujin, you and Meier. Don’t worry, my father and I may not have a chance to survive. "

Lu Feng cried and said, "No, I'm going to Jianye with my eldest brother too. If we die, we will die together."

Lu Yun scolded: "Confused, if you die too, who can Yujin and Meier, even mother and younger brother rely on in the future?" After saying this, the color softened a little, and he added: "There is one more thing. , you have to remember that when I went to Yongdu to assassinate the master, who knew that I didn't even have the opportunity to do it, I lost all face, but I also met a few friends. If you see them, they will definitely protect you. Even the master once said that if there is any danger in the future, you can go to him. But my Lu family's children, how can I go to the enemy country, so you must remember that even if you are in trouble In a desperate situation of life and death, you must not rely on Dayong, let alone become an enemy of Nan Chu."

Lu Feng knew that his elder brother's words were like a mountain, and he was quite fatherly.

Lu Yun didn't look back, his tone was a little more sad, and continued: "Go ahead, if the Huaixi army has not been dispatched, I am afraid that the imperial envoy has already arrived in Zhongli, if so, if you can still see Yujin, Tell her for me that she should not blame her father-in-law, she will understand her painstaking efforts eventually."

Lu Feng felt grief and anger in his heart, thinking that if Shi Guan had not taken refuge with Shang Weijun so soon, he would not have put his family in such a situation. He was about to scold when he heard the sound of water droplets falling to the ground. The elder brother was distressed and ran out crying.

After a long time, Lu Yun turned around and said to Wei Ying, who was standing silently on the side, "Father Wei, I've disappointed you. I still have to ask you to pay more attention to Daddy's entrustment."

Wei Ying only felt the pain in her heart, and she endured her grief and said, "The major general is worthy of being the direct descendant of the Lu family. I would have expected that even if Wei violated his wishes, it would be of no avail."

Lu Yun said in a low voice: "Yun You have lost my uncle's high hopes. If my uncle sees Zhuojing in the future, please tell him. The father-in-law is also a last resort. He just wants to force Zhuojing to fly away, and Zhuojing has a strong temperament. If my father-in-law doesn't do this, Zhuojing will never leave Huaixi for refuge."

Wei Ying sighed: "Ying has nothing to say anymore, so I will go to Huaidong to see Yang joins the army, and transfer to the command of the general." After speaking, he turned around and left.

Leaving Zhongli, Wei Ying ran all the way to Guangling, where the Huaidong army camp was located. As soon as he entered the territory of Huaidong, Wei Ying learned the news that Emperor Yong Li Zhi was furious because of the war in Xiangyang, Qi King Li Xian and Crown Prince Li Jun , Changsun Ji, the main general of Xiangyang, was reprimanded, and Jiang Zhe, the initiator of the crime, was even punished by demotion. Jiang Zhe, who was already a marquis of the country, became a county marquis again. Can't keep it either. Moreover, because of the unfavorable situation in the war, Li Zhi had already ordered the Yong army to retreat from the line of defense, and even a high-ranking official from Dayong wrote a letter to propose a truce and peace talks. If this news had been posted a few months ago, it would have been absolutely good news, but now, it is the post of the King of Hell that drives the soul to death. Wei Ying heard the news, and finally couldn't bear a mouthful of blood and vomited into the dust. At this moment, he once again After appreciating Jiang Zhe's ruthless and thoughtful strategies, he will never leave anyone the slightest chance.
