Entering the City

Taking advantage of the three women's eyes widened and asked Gao Wenxin what bet they had made, Yang Ling quietly held the young lady's hand and returned to her nest.

I was still the dusty clothes, and I didn't have time to change them, so I returned to my bedroom.

The old mother stepped out, and the couple squatted beside the crib, holding hands, and sweetly looked at the sweet sleeping baby inside from between the railings.

At that time, there was no habit of making a crib. This was something that Yang Ling had learned to the young lady when she left Beijing, and there were bells hanging on it as small toys. When the child was about to be born, these things were prepared and placed in the bedroom.

It has been more than two months since a fat boy, his face is tight and strong, and his short legs are stinging open the quilt without being honest, and the wrapped diaper has also kicked away.

Women are a disaster, men are the root of disaster, and the baby shows a small small cock that Liu Jin must be jealous and envious when he sees it. The young lady is afraid that he will catch a cold, so she hurriedly covers him with a quilt. Yang Ling gently stopped him, and gently stroked the child's smooth and strong legs with his warm palm, while saying softly: "When you are fine, touch his body more, the baby will feel very comfortable and will increase the relationship between mother and baby."

Han Youniang looked at him admiringly and said, "My husband knows so much."

"That's right, I've been serving as the union chairman for two months," Yang Ling muttered in his heart.

The child was sleeping soundly with his head in his arms. Since he found out that he was very well-behaved and did not scratch his face, the young lady let go of his hands and feet and no longer tied him up straight when he was sleeping. The mother couldn't bear it. It seemed that the method that the aunts and ladies in the village were not applicable to every child.

The child woke up and opened his clear eyes, but did not cry. His eyebrows, eyes, and facial features were very beautiful. His facial features were more like young ladies, and his skin was like a mother. He was a little healthy and slightly dark, and his son followed his mother. It was true.

Because the young lady practiced martial arts since she was a child, she was strong in her body and was carefully taken care of by the goddess doctor Gao Wenxin, he was much stronger than the children of the same age who were more than two months old.

The baby's shiny eyes were not sure what to look at. Without a certain goal, his eyebrows were slightly frowning, and some spit bubbles appeared on his lips, but he was still trying hard to tighten, as if he was thinking in contemplation. Yang Ling couldn't help but praise: "Good, my son has the temperament of a philosopher."

As soon as Yang Ling finished praising her, the little guy moved. He kicked her feet a little and hit the railing twice. His feet were very strong, and his body turned sideways, shaking his cock. He soaked the boy's urine and shot out from the crack in the railing, spitting Yang Ling's face.

Very good, very strong, not wasted a drop, and there was no drop on the bed. After sprinkling the pee, the little guy happily kicked his little fat legs like lotus roots, and babbled, lazily burping his breasts.

Han Youniang covered her mouth and laughed, stood up and covered her son with a quilt. Yang Ling squatted on the ground in a daze, and whispered for a while before he wiped his face and shouted, "Mr. Yang... you... are you so awesome, are you treating your father?"

At this moment, there was a burst of footsteps outside the door, and Han Wei's voice hurriedly said: "Son-in-law, something big happened in the capital."

Yang Ling was shocked and stood up quickly. He thought along the way that he would go home quickly and not have any major problems at home. Seeing that the family was fine, he felt relieved and thought that he should go to Beijing to see the emperor immediately. The emperor had even been granted the title of Duke Wei, so he could not pretend to die at home. It was just that the family was full of trouble. In fact, he had been at home for less than an hour and had not taken care of these things.

Now when he heard Han Wei's tone was anxious, he didn't even bother to wipe his face, and hurriedly ran out and asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Wei whispered: "I don't know who left the nameless secret letter in the Golden Palace today to impeach Liu Jin. Because he could not find the person who submitted his letter, all the civil and military officials in the court, except for the six ministers and the ministers of the Inspectorate, were arrested by Eunuch Liu. Now the Jinyiwei is sending people to the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

When the people of the capital heard the news, merchants stopped the market and students stopped their school. People from the Hanlin Academy and Tai Academy encouraged the people to surround the Jinyiwei who escorted all civil and military officials, blocking the downtown streets. The officials from the Ministry of Justice came to inform me just now and asked me to go back immediately."

Yang Ling thought for a moment and immediately said, "Let's go, when you come back, you have to meet the emperor. I'll go with you."

The two hurried to the front house, called Wu Hanchao and his guards, and went straight to the capital.

"Who is this man who is slandering Liu Jin? Liu Jin was very popular these days, as if he was the first person in the capital than one person. The Qingliu faction was remediated by him. Most of the power of the Censorate had been taken away by him. Someone dared to write a letter to oppose him. Isn't this the same method as his method of asking Qian Ning to get materials and punishing Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning?"

While galloping on the horse, Yang Ling quickly analyzed the situation in Beijing based on the information she had. Suddenly, a thought jumped into his mind: "It's not that Yun'er knew the news of my death, so she asked someone to do it? No...... Her news shouldn't be that fast. I left the mountain on the third day and returned to Beijing for a while. My death news was delivered to her. How many days would it take for her to send someone to Beijing?"

It turned out that Yangling passed by Jiguan Cliff that day and looked at the sloping grass and trees beside the stream, and suddenly found some broken marks on the slope. Although there were not many, among the primitive plants and trees that were not touched all year round, if you were interested in seeing it, it would be a bit conspicuous. Out of caution, Yangling ordered the army to stop moving forward.

After ordering the guard to rest on the spot, Yang Ling took the opportunity to observe the situation around him.

Jiguan Ridge may have been a large cave in ancient times. Due to strong earthquakes or crust changes, most of it collapsed, leaving only one side of the mountain wall and a continuous dome that protruded from the top like eaves. Although the mountain wall on the side has been weathered for tens of millions of years, it is still steep and difficult to climb.

Taking advantage of the scattered soldiers everywhere, Yangling went down to the river to observe for a while. Since Tuoba Yanran only needed some explosives to place explosives, and used the explosive force to produce earthquakes to cause the cliff to collapse, there were not many stones chiseled from the dome. The gravels directly fell to the ground were swept up by Bawang and threw them into the water. There were few stones splashing directly into the grass, but they were washed away by the mountain torrent after the rain, and there was no flaw at all.

Yang Ling looked up at the dark cliff top, which was unattainable to climb. Moreover, the plates shaped like upside down on the cliff top were even more unlikely to climb up. Could it be that it was just broken when the businessmen in the past were resting?

Yang Ling went to the bamboo forest opposite for a little convenience, but because he found nothing, his suspicion gradually faded, but once people became suspicious of something, they would think of many things they usually ignore. Yang Ling thought that when he went to Fujian, if He Shen, who was lying on the road, was his own person, he would definitely die when he ambushed himself. At that time, he didn't expect that Fujian officials would attack him.

This time, there are more people who came to Sichuan. The remnants of Duzhangman who fled, and Zhu Rangjin's subordinates who were dug up, all of them have an incomprehensible revenge against themselves. Will they make trouble on the way?

He even thought of Tuoba Yanran. When she saw her off at the Yamaguchi, she turned around and showed bright mandarin ducks on her waist scarf. Judging from the letters of the two, she and Zhu Rangjin were in love with each other. Even if she knew that the person she loved was a sinister and cunning person, she would no longer have love in her heart, and she would not find a new love so quickly. Why did she wear a mandarin duck scarf on her waist?

Be careful of sailing for ten thousand years, all kinds of doubts passed by. Yang Ling couldn't help but become cautious again and imagined various possibilities for setting up ambush: throwing a stone? The top of the cliff is like a dome, and people are under the dome, and standing on the cliff cannot hurt people; ambushing soldiers? Although this post road has been repaired by the government, it can only accommodate two vehicles in parallel at the widest point. Seven rows of soldiers marched, and a sharp arrow shot down in front of them. How many people can be injured? Or they set up blocking stones to flood the seven armies?

Thinking of this, Yang Ling laughed in silence. The road was at the bottom of the mountain, with a stream next to it. The terrain on the opposite side was even lower. If the flood was storing down, the water had not yet reached this point and had already turned into the forest, so it was impossible.

With the last trace of instinctive doubts, Yang Ling sent a few personal soldiers up the mountain to search to see if anyone had any trouble. The general Lu Qianhu, who was sent by Li Sen, had passed by several times, but the master was reluctant to leave. He came and asked in person, and bowed: "Sir, the army has almost rested. Should we set off now? If we are late, I am afraid that I will not be able to get to Jiankou Town at night, so I can only spend the night in the mountains."

Yang Ling said: "Lu Qianhu waited for a moment, and our personal soldiers went up the mountain to survey. It would be not too late for us to leave after they got down the mountain. Let everyone have a rest."

Lu Qianhu said in surprise: "Going the mountain?" He looked up at the mountain and hesitated: "This mountain is bare and nothing, what are you doing to go up the mountain?"

Yang Ling pointed to the broken weeds on the roadside and said to him, but the grass and trees were trampled on by the soldiers, and they had no shape at all, and there was no abnormality.

After hearing Yang Ling's doubts, Lu Qianhu couldn't help laughing and bowed to Yang Ling, "I don't know how long it will take, so it's ridiculous that the coach saw that there were always weathered fragments falling on the roadside. It's not uncommon to smash the flowers and plants, not to mention that some merchants occasionally stopped to draw water to wash their faces, so it's not uncommon to break them.

It’s okay to climb up from the side, but the top of the cliff is like an eaves, so we cover it below. What if there are evil people standing on it? It’s better...... It’s the responsibility of the officials to protect the master. When he came out, Lord Li Sen repeatedly told him to ensure the safety of the master at all costs.

The adults are suspicious and nervous... Let's do this. After a while, the adults will lead the guard of honor to walk through the bamboo forest. The subordinates will lead the ceremonial guard convoy on the main road. We crossed the dangerous place of Jiguanling and then gathered again. At the beginning, the sun is slightly off and shining on this road. The autumn tiger is also shining on the autumn tiger. The adults will walk in the bamboo forest, both shade and enjoy the scenery. We are separated by a stream. If someone really sets up an ambush here, we can still echo and support each other. After walking through these two dangerous roads, we will meet again."

When Yang Ling heard him, he felt as if his plants and plants were all soldiers, and he felt a little embarrassed. Moreover, Lu Qianhu was a local general, so he should be more familiar with the situation than himself. He was about to reject Lu Qianhu's kindness, and Liu Dabanchui licked his thick lips and spoke:

"Master, I think Lu Qianhu's words are reasonable. Let's walk in the bamboo forest and cooler. Look at our soldiers, all from the capital, are not as resistant to the mountain roads. Now they are sweating profusely. When they enter the forest, don't bask in the sun. When they turn over this cliff, will the mountain be in front turn? The sun cannot directly bask in us."

Yang Ling has always been easy-going to his subordinates, otherwise Liu Dabangcui would not dare to raise any conditions to complain to the general. After his statement, Yang Ling agreed, because if he didn't go, no matter how tired or hot his personal soldiers would leave, they would not leave him half a step.

When Wu Hanchao led his men down from the mountain, no abnormalities were found on the top of the mountain. Everyone was more relieved. Yang Ling also left 80% of the doubts in his heart, just thinking that he was suspicious. However, since he agreed to Lu Qianhu and Dabanchui, he changed his words and was still divided into two groups according to President Lu Qian's proposal.

When General Lu Qian ordered the army to gather, the soldiers ran out in chaos. Yang Ling and his 300 personal soldiers did not come out of the forest. In order to be safe, Lu Qianhu left him 200 people. He divided into three teams, and the guards were in front of Yang Ling's personal soldiers, behind and on the side of the dense forest, just in case.

The two teams advanced simultaneously through the stream and bamboo forest. The team in front was about to walk out of Jiguan Cliff. Yang Ling also felt that the strange thoughts he had just been too careful. If he was still on the spot, more than two thousand people would not have much food to bring, and he would go hungry in the mountains.

At this moment, a few thunder-like explosions were heard, and then a loud rumbling sound, and the entire mountain collapsed. Stones of all sizes were smashed down, and some big stones hit the ground and made a sound. They rushed in like wild boars throwing into the forest. The branches and bamboos that hit the rattle broke one after another, and the forest was scattered, which was so shocked that Wu Hanchao and others pulled Yang Ling and hurried out to the depths of the forest for more than ten feet.

At this time, the dust that was overwhelming in was also swept in, and my eyes were fascinated. When the strong and pungent smell gradually faded, Yang Ling and his personal guards all became warriors and stood in a daze in the forest. He looked at the place where it turned out to be a steep and towering cliff. He could no longer make a sound.

In just a moment, the towering cliff turned into a low mountain. The roads and lands turned into part of the low mountain. In the dust, two thousand troops disappeared, not only but the entire post road river disappeared.

Yang Ling's hands were trembling: dynamite must be explosives. In this era, some people actually thought of using explosives that were extremely strict in the imperial court to explode the mountain! Who is this?

Wu Hanchao has checked the top of the mountain. If there is an explosive, it must be on the inside of the cliff, and the explosion point is absolutely large. The inside of the cliff is smooth and steep, and it is impossible to imagine how to climb up. How much manpower, material resources and time does it take, and it must be not paid attention to by the merchants in the past to take out so many explosion points, place enough explosives to collapse the entire mountain?

Two thousand people, who is so vicious? If it weren't for Dabangmao's favor and wanted to walk on a comfortable road, he had been persuaded by Lu Qianhu to change his mind, all five hundred people would have been buried alive, and no one living on the scene could have been left.

Under such natural danger, with the help of human power, who can resist the earth-shaking power?

Yang Ling's eyes were red. He was about to run out to see what he could understand, but the spies exploring the way forward ran back, saying that they saw a large number of men wearing local people's clothes and holding steel knives rushing towards this place along the mountain road and the stream.

Wu Hanchao asked in horror: "How many people are there?"

The spy shook his head and said, "I can't see it, but the number of people will definitely exceed ours."

At this time, the spy who had cut off the back sent the same news. Wu Hanchao got the news and did not dare to find out the news again. At that time, Yang Ling struggled despite the situation and was struggling with Liu Dabangchui and left. More than 200 people retreated quickly to the depths of the dense forest.

Judging from this situation, the enemy is clearly prepared. If the enemy sent the spies back to the top of the mountain to spy after searching the mountain, then the squads hidden in the bamboo forest will probably be difficult to hide. They will be seen by the people on the top of the cliff. There are countless ambushing soldiers on both sides. The situation is unclear at this time. The best strategy is to leave and leave the green mountains and leave the funeral of Xu Tuzhi. Only when he is alive can he have a chance.

Wu Hanchao and others did not distinguish between north and south. When they encountered swamps, puddles, and vines in the primitive dense forests blocked the road and took a detour. The people sent by Bawang to search for the living did not find their traces. In the end, even they could not find their place because they were lost.

At this time, it was dark and there was no other way to go out. The soldiers caught some wild animals and cooked fires in the forest to fill their stomachs. The mountains were high and the forests were dense, and the trees were towering. Even the sunlight could be seen through this primitive jungle. Even if the fire was made at night, they would not be afraid of being seen by people a hundred feet away.

These people rolled and crawled, all of them became muddy little ghosts. Yang Ling felt sad and couldn't eat at all. He knew that if he was the one who took the lead, it would be just a matter of letting the army live for more time. The steep arm was brought with him, and he didn't know where to use the force to climb up. And I don't know how long it took, so how ridiculous the commander saw a broken path and a broken branch on the side of the road, so the army turned around.

However, if I was more careful and suspicious, I could at least divide the team into several groups, and after all, I was careless. Lu Qianhu's words had already dispelled his doubts. If it weren't for the big stick...... Yang Ling had a clever cold war, looked around his eyes, and the soldiers were all sad and lonely.

At night, Yang Ling tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. After thinking about it, Tuoba Yanran's figure always wandered in front of her. She suddenly waited under the maple tree at the foot of the mountain, moved the mandarin ducks on her waist scarf while moving in the wind, and her charming look as sweet as wine when drinking...

Tuoba Yanran is suspicious. She has the ability to get so much gunpowder and so much manpower to accomplish this big thing. But... why should she do this? She is just Zhu Rangjin's beauty, and the facts prove that Zhu Rangjin has hidden a lot of things from her. It would be good if she didn't let her go without her sleeves. Will she take great risks to kill the imperial envoy?

For love? Would she be so stupid and still have deep love for Zhu Rangjin?

Speaking of which, there are three other forces. They have more reasons to kill themselves than her, and they also have enough manpower and financial resources. First, they are all in charge of the remnants of the barbarians. It is difficult to guarantee that one or two small villages will not be left behind in the deep mountains and forests. In addition, if the barbarians are scattered and fleeing, if they gather together, they can do it with their "living on the cliff" habit, and they can only do it in terms of manpower, and only gunpowder is not easy to do.

For the sake of the revenge of the deceased clan, this reason is enough.

The second troop is Zhu Rangjin's remaining troops who escaped after hearing the news. If they have the courage to come and seek revenge from themselves, the problem of gunpowder will not be difficult to solve. Yang Ling remembered the gunpowder that Zhu Rangjin cheated from the garrison. The amount of gunpowder was not enough to equip the army, and it was not enough to bomb this mountain. Obviously, he was making gunpowder by himself.

Not to mention that people in the martial arts world do not care about loyalty, but men who dominate the righteous still have land. With Zhu Rangjin's talents, they cannot be all mediocre.

The third force........ Yang Ling felt heartbroken when he thought of this. After Zhu Rangjin's incident, he was no longer so confident in the character of others that he saw with his eyes. Now the only thing about Zhu Rangjin's rebellion was that he had heard Zhu Rangxu tell him personally before he died. Although he instructed Zhu Rangxu not to mention it in the memorial at that time, which made him cry, how could he know that he would not think about it more and more fearful in the future?

This handle is in his own hands, and he, the King of Shu, was grabbed by himself. If he wanted to, he would stop him. If the new King of Shu was unwilling to be controlled by others, would he... no matter what others do, he could do too much land.

Thinking of this, he was a murderous intent step by step. He looked up at Bashu, and there was no one else who could be trusted.

Because of my carelessness, I will never be careless again for the second time!

On the second day, heavy rain started again. The heavy rain caused difficulties to the rescue work of Zhu Rangxu and others. Yang Ling and others also encountered difficulties in the mountains and forests. The mountain torrents made it even more difficult for them to find the way back. It was not until the early morning of the third day that they accidentally found a small village in the deep mountains.

After spending a lot of money to hire a hunter as a guide, they went out all the way and rushed to the land of Sanqin. Yangling is no longer a newcomer in the officialdom. He knew that if a force wanted to kill him, there would definitely be another one. Now he has no time to find the murderer, nor can he find a trustworthy helper, so he can only leave the dangerous place quickly.

Since the murderer is willing to use such a large formation and put in so much effort, he must be sure to win. If he knows that he is still alive, he will inevitably pursue various pursuits and assassins, so he can only leave, leave quickly, and leave the enemy behind forever. Then no matter how dangerous or powerful he is, he will lose his effect.

Only when you free up your hands and find your opponent can you turn the defense into an offensive.

Besides, he has two reasons to leave: family and Cheng Qiyun!

It took him three days to leave the mountainous area. A pile of mud monkeys touched a small county and got dozens of bad horses. Some guards even rode donkeys and mules and rushed to the big city in a mess. The rest of the guards had to slowly rush. When they arrived at the place, they continued to walk. After changing the horses, Yangling sent some people to contact the local local monks. At the same time, several people rushed to Zhejiang to report the news in person, so as not to show their power.

But he rushed to the capital without stopping. Kuaiyi? Kuaiyi was faster than the Dayuan horse he got from the local wealthy. He notified the local office, but the postman who reported the good news did not follow the prince of Shu to whip gold and silver, so he would not be exhausted and rush to the road, and he was not as fast as him at all.

Yang Ling was only worried that the news of his death would arrive in the capital before him. The young lady would do something stupid, so she could walk slowly. When she entered the safe realm, she would sleep in harmony with her clothes and sleep on her horse. The urgent need for the road was actually the first time in her life. Unexpectedly, she rushed to the door of her house and didn't see a dead body, but she actually saw a sedan chair.

Thinking of this, Yang Ling felt warm in his heart...

Judging from the time before and after, Cheng Qiyun's actions will not be faster than herself. Even if Qiyun has other spies, she should have been with Beijing for one or two days when she received the news of her death. She should not have time to make any moves. When she opened the tip to prepare for action, the news of her resurrection from the dead should have arrived.

The secret letter was actually his arrangements for his family and government affairs, and these things were not suitable for him. Since he began to trust Cheng Qiyun absolutely, he began to plan and have already started to arrange them.

The arrangement of his own family has made some changes in the latest plan. The emperor has always trusted Eng and the existence of his sister Tang Yixian, which can at least ensure that the already harmless Virgin Marquis' Mansion is not violated. What he is worried about is his plan to change the destiny of China's history and the powerful tools he has used to implement this plan: the inner factory!

Now, the local factory has a huge power. No one knows better than him that a spy agency that is above the law, even the East Factory, the West Factory and the Jinyiwei have become its peripheral organizations. At the same time, it has a huge source of funds that does not need to go through the Ministry of Revenue and the internal warehouse. During its business transportation, it not only has intelligence organizations spread all over the world, but also through the sharing of interests, a large number of elites from all walks of life, farmers, industry and commerce have attracted their fellow soldiers, farmers, industrial and commercial groups to join the people.
To be continued...
