At this moment, the little boss doesn't pay much attention to Shangguan Beloved, the best scholar in the world in the past in the Jinluan Palace. He talks obscenely and looks like a street gangster.
"Keep an eye on me, General Shangguan. If anything goes wrong, come to me." After showing off his brave words, the leader left a cruel message and hurried out of the small courtyard to find the concubine he had just snatched. The dragon and the phoenix are gone.
Facing the Lanzhou Prefecture soldiers who filled the yard, Shangguan Chong'er did not argue anymore. They returned to the house and sat on the chairs angrily without saying a word.
Listening to the meaning of the little boss's words, Helianduo wanted to use the five thousand soldiers brought by Shangguan Chong'er from Zhangye. It seemed that he had to send someone to notify the guards stranded outside the city as soon as possible, and he had to find a way to guard against Helianduo's secrets. Attack.
"General, what should we do now?" A guard frowned and asked in a low voice.
¡°We shouldn¡¯t have entered the city so easily,¡± another relative also opened the conversation, quite resentfully.
Shangguan Chong'er raised his head and glared at him, causing him to lower his head in a hurry.
"The relations between the twenty-seven countries in the Western Region are complicated and they are not monolithic in nature," Shangguan Chong'er said easily. "Helian Duo has great ambitions but little talent. If he dares the world's disapproval and is stuck on a cliff without knowing it, there is nothing terrible about it."
"General, have you made arrangements?" The former resentful guard raised his head in surprise and asked.
Shangguan Beloved smiled and said: "Don't worry, since I dare to take you into the city, I will naturally keep you safe."
"General, you are serious. We are deeply loved by the old general. The old general treats us like his own children. We will not hesitate even if we go through fire and water."
"Helianduo imprisoned us today. It is obvious that the situation has changed." Shangguan Chong'er analyzed with his wise eyes flashing, "If I am right in my estimate, Liangzhou soldiers are probably on their way to Lanzhou."
"The soldiers from Liangzhou and Guyuan, plus the soldiers from Chang'an, are no less numerous than the soldiers from Lanzhou. And the biggest bargaining chip that Helian Jin relies on now is probably the country of Tubo."
"Alas -" Shangguan Chong'er sighed suddenly, "It's a pity that I thought he was leading the troops this time. I never thought it would be Cui Xuanji. I'm afraid Daxing Palace has changed beyond recognition not long after leaving."

"General, what should we do now? Should we just wait here?"
"No one will come looking for us," Shangguan Chong'er said with a confident smile.
Shifang Inn
When Chang Zheng led the Lanzhou soldiers to retreat, the peace of the past was restored.
Yang Xiao and Wei Dongyang are both happy. Wei Dongyang is no longer worried about exposing his identity as a Liupanshan robber, and Yang Xiao is also not worried about his soil bomb being discovered by them.
Daniu and Black Bear, the second leader of Liupan Mountain, had the same idea. They went to the first floor to buy some wine and started drinking. Yang Xiao said goodbye to Ge Liang and Wei Dongyang and returned to the room.
Muya¡¯s expression in the room was dull, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked as if she was heartbroken.
Yang Xiao waved away the young soldiers guarding the room, then walked over and sat next to her.
Looking at that petite and helpless body, Yang Xiao's heart softened suddenly, and he said softly: "I don't want to ask who you are. You lured Erwa out to steal his soil bomb and wanted to assassinate Heliando. I want you to be with me." He has a blood feud, and I won¡¯t delve into this matter. I will let you go now, but there is one condition you must agree to, that is, you must keep the secret of the soil bomb for me. "
When Mu Ya heard what he said, her delicate body trembled, her eyes regained clarity, her two black eyes stared at Yang Xiao closely, and after a long time she said: "Master Yang, please help us." After saying "Plop!" He knelt down with a cry.
"You-what are you-doing?" Yang Xiao was startled. The girl remained silent and resorted to this method as soon as she came.
"I can't help you," Yang Xiao said seriously.
"Mr. Yang, you helped me, and I will repay you in the next life as a cow or a horse." Mu Ya said as tears welled up from her eyes again.
"You get up first," Yang Xiao sighed, "Helianduo is your enemy. I know you are eager for revenge, but as far as I know he is the Tu Emperor in Lanzhou City. You failed to assassinate him this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it again. Like ascending to heaven¡±
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult." Seeing that Yang Xiao's tone was a little relaxed, Mu Ya quickly stood up and said, "You have a magical weapon that can block ten with one. I have seen it on Liupan Mountain. The robbers on Liupan Mountain are entrenched on the mountain. There are ten For several years, both the Liangzhou Prefecture soldiers and the Lanzhou Prefecture soldiers have been able to avoid seeing each other without meeting. But when it comes to your hands, the fight is over before it even starts. As long as - just??¡ª¡ªYou sold us the secret recipe for making that artifact¡ª¡ª"
¡°Oh¡ª¡ª¡± Yang Xiao sneered, ¡°You¡¯ve been waiting for me here for a long time, why do you want the secret recipe?¡±
"We can buy it, pay a lot of money"
"How much money do you have?" Yang Xiao said coldly.
¡°Isn¡¯t this why you Sui merchants took the Silk Road to ensure your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life?¡±
"You go ahead, I won't sell this recipe," Yang Xiao said calmly, turning his back.
"Young Master Yang, why don't you sell me to you?" Mu Ya said the last sentence with a voice like a gnat.
Yang Xiao snorted coldly: "You still don't understand what I mean. I don't know whether to praise you for being smart or for your superb acting skills. I think you are a prostitute, so you'd better leave."
"I-I-you-you-" Muya burst into tears, "Mr. Yang, I really have no other intentions. I just want to use your artifact to help me restore my homeland."
"Even if you are tongue-shaped, I won't sell you."
Seeing Yang Xiao¡¯s categorical statement, Mu Ya sat back on the chair dejectedly, returning to her despairing look.
Yang Xiao glanced at her secretly from the corner of his eye, and seeing that she didn't look pretentious, he opened his mouth and said, "You want the secret recipe? It's my patent and I can't sell it to you, but because of your desire for revenge, Come on, I have a suggestion."
"Oh?" Mu Ya looked at him in surprise with wide eyes.
"Since you are rich, how about I sell you the home bombs and you can take as many as you want?"
"Really?" Mu Ya jumped up happily and said, "This is a good idea. I will notify Uncle Chu to come over immediately."
The sunset falls into the valley
The cool breeze of late autumn brought a bit of chill.
After a brief discussion with Yang Xiao, Muya disguised herself and went out to contact the uncle she mentioned.
After Chang Zheng¡¯s disturbance during the day, although business resumed, most of the tenants and merchants quietly checked out and left.
The second floor, which was originally full, was now the only one left with Wei Dongyang and Yang Xiao.
At this moment, two people, one large and one small, suddenly came outside Shifang Inn. The older one was about fifty years old and wore a felt hat that covered most of his face. The younger one was petite and dainty, with a face covered in dirt, like a little beggar, but his eyes were as clear as water.
"Uncle Chu, he's up there." Xiao Jiaohua walked in with the man behind him.
Needless to say, this person is the girl Muya who went out to contact her uncle Chu.
The two of them climbed the stairs and came to Yang Xiao's room. They saw two young men standing like pillars outside the room, each of them standing straight.
The two teenagers just glanced at them and stopped caring, as if they knew their identities.
The door button clicked, and Yang Xiao's voice sounded in the room.
"come in"
The two of them pushed in. The old man took off his felt hat and looked at the back of the man who was sitting at the table with his back facing him and writing something. He felt inexplicably panicked.
The back of this man was very familiar, as if he had seen it before somewhere. The old man's mind was spinning rapidly. Could it be that the man in front of him was sent by Heliando to try to fool him? The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid. The old man quickly made a gesture towards Muya and said, "I'm sorry that I knocked on the wrong door."
"Uncle Chu is right," Muya suddenly didn't realize that her uncle Chu was constantly giving her a wink.
Yang Xiao turned around when he heard the words, and when he saw the old man's face clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"It's you¡ª¡ª"
"Ah - what - could - be - you -" When the old man saw the man in front of him, his face turned pale with fear.
"Hey - Uncle Chu, do you know Young Master Yang?" Mu Ya asked in surprise.
At this time, the room had already been locked up by the young soldiers outside. Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the old man stood aside slumped, silent.
"Hehe - of course we know each other" Yang Xiao stood up and sneered, "Murong Chu - Tuyuhun Imperial Master never thought that you and I would meet at this place."
Recalling the scene of being beaten outside the Qianyang Palace that day, Murong Chu still had lingering fears in his heart. This Huo Ran was the eldest grandson of the Sui Emperor, Yang Xiao, who did not follow common sense and was confused by Gu Bang's etiquette.
"Eh - how do you know we are Tuyuhun?" Mu Ya saw that Uncle Chu and Mr. Yang were old acquaintances, and thought things would be easier to talk about, and she couldn't help but feel happy.
"It seems that your name is not Muya anymore," Yang Xiao said calmly, "The surname of Tuyuhun is Murong. I'm afraid your real name is Murongya."
Although Murong Ya once again admired Yang Xiao¡¯s intelligence for guessingown name, but I also heard the strong murderous intention in his mouth.
It¡¯s true that Uncle Chu and Mr. Yang are old acquaintances. To be precise, they should be ¡°hostile¡± old acquaintances.
"What on earth is going on?" Murong Ya asked anxiously.
"Alas -" Murong Chu sighed and said, "Princess, it's a long story. I regret that I listened to King Long and opposed the prince of the Celestial Dynasty, so that he laid the foundation for the disaster and destroyed the entire Tuyuhun."
When Murong Chu said this, he suddenly straightened up and said generously: "Your Highness, the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Heaven, I took the blame on myself that day. Today, I am willing to kill you as I please. I just beg you to spare the princess's life."
Hearing this, Murong Ya also understood a little bit. She felt that the Young Master Yang in front of her was the famous Emperor Sun of the Celestial Dynasty. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but angrily said: "Uncle, you don't have to ask him. It was me, Murong Ya, who was blind and accepted a jackal as a friend." .¡±
Yang Xiao couldn¡¯t help but be startled. Before I lost my temper, this little girl started scolding me. .
