"...Just before the battle, the military governor Pei Zhong and his subordinates sent by the court to the army attacked the commander-in-chief. When the last general waited for others to rush over, the commander-in-chief was already... dying."

"The army was in chaos, and Daliao counterattacked and broke the city... When the Liao soldiers were driven out of Yanyun Pass, there were already countless casualties in the city."

"The Hunjun sent someone to block the news. Except for Pei Zhong, no one can leave Yanyun Pass with one ride..."

Xue Nan wiped away his tears: "Pei Chong's dog thief declared in public that the commander-in-chief was collaborating with the enemy, and he also held the Shangfang sword given by the emperor, saying that he has the right to kill first and then play..."

"When the army was in chaos, the last general led a group of brothers to leave secretly, and returned to Beijing after crossing Beiman Mountain, hiding under the dung truck and entering the city."

Xue Nan wiped his face indiscriminately: "Because the last words of the commander-in-chief will be brought to the son at the end."

Xiao Dingcheng clenched his hands into fists, his forehead was full of veins, like a hellish ghost.

He opened his mouth slowly: "Father, what did he leave for me?"

Xue Nan said: "The commander-in-chief said, let the son not forget what he said to you on your birthday last year."

"I see, you guys go to my room to wash and rest first, there is something in the kitchen, let's talk after eating..."

Xue Nan and the others were full of hunger and hunger, and they knew that Xiao Dingcheng might have something to do, so they wiped their tears after responding, kowtowed heavily in front of the coffin, and then turned and went out.

When he was the only one left before the coffin, Xiao Dingcheng slowly got up and walked aside.

When he was sure that no one was there, he took out the jade pendant that he kept next to him... It was a birthday present from his father the king last year.

At that time, the father said that this jade pendant had been with him for 20 years!

And the Zhenbei Army existed for exactly 20 years...

Xiao Dingcheng recalled that at that time there were secretly rumors in Beijing that his father had made great achievements, but his father just laughed it off and said to him: "I, Xiao Ceyuan, have been loyal to the monarch and protect the country all my life. If one day my loyalty is wrong, I will not be afraid of broken jade..."

Xiao Dingcheng slapped the jade pendant against the wall with a blank expression, and two things rolled down.

One is a soldier talisman...the other is a piece of silk folded into the size of a thumb, with handwriting on it.

After a while, Xiao Dingcheng put away the soldier talisman and silk, and summoned Xue Nan and the others.

"What are your plans for the future?"

They are equivalent to defecting, and the army will definitely not be able to return.

Xue Nan and the others ate and washed their faces, and knelt in front of Xiao Dingcheng together. Xue Nan grinned: "The old general's mother is no longer alive, and she is alone. She has nothing to fear... Now I have lived up to the entrustment." The commander-in-chief's words have been brought, so I'm going to kill Pei Chong's dog thief with these brothers!"

Xue Nan gritted his teeth: "The last general only regrets not being able to break into the palace and kill the faint king!"

Xiao Dingcheng looked calm: "Go and kill Pei Chong, no matter if you succeed or fail, you will die!"

Xue Nan didn't hesitate: "The kindness that the commander-in-chief has treated me is as great as a mountain, and he should repay it with death!"

Xiao Dingcheng looked at them quietly, and after a while, he said slowly: "If you die, you can't do anything. Pei Zhong is just a running dog, and he wants revenge... It's not enough to kill Pei Zhong."

Xue Nan looked over in a daze.

Xiao Dingcheng said: "I have to leave for a few days after I settle down my relatives tomorrow, can Big Brother Xue protect my relatives for me?"

Xue Nan was slightly startled, and then clasped his fists together: "The last general and others will give up their lives to protect each other."

Xiao Dingcheng looked at them, and said in a low voice: "Live well and wait for me to come back..."

Before dawn the next day, Xiao Dingcheng, Xue Nan and others hid his father's coffin in an unremarkable Yizhuang on the outskirts of the city, and then brought the family members to change places.

Xiao Dingcheng's explanation was that he was worried that someone would frame him, and no one except Sheng Nuan knew what happened, but with his previous experience, no one objected.

Xiao Dingcheng took the old lady's last gold bracelet and asked Xue Nan to rent a hidden but big enough house in disguise. He moved in that afternoon, and then stocked up enough ingredients and daily necessities in batches.

Before leaving home, he went to see everyone in the family, including Liu Rumian, and seriously told him not to leave the hospital until he came back, and declared that this was a matter of life and death.

Liu Rumian was nervous but didn't know why, but she was naturally happy to be able to change to a better place.

Only Sheng Nuan knew what happened.

Xiao Dingcheng met Sheng Nuan before leaving, and held her hand tightly: "Nuan Nuan, if I can come back, I will make up for everything I owed you before."

After a pause, he said again: "If I can't come back..."

Sheng Nuan immediately interrupted him: "My husband will return safely, I will wait for you."

Xiao Dingcheng's eyes were slightly red, and then he nodded heavily: "Okay..."

That night, Xiao Dingcheng went out of Beijing in disguise...

The health of the old lady and the princess has improved, and they can walk out of the room and walk in the yard when they are free.

Their attitude towards Liu Rumian is much better now, after all, the family is in such a situation, and Liu Rumian is pregnant with Xiao Dingcheng's child.

It was rare for the old lady to take the initiative to see Liu Rumian... But Liu Rumian's mood was also different from the past.

If the old lady took the initiative to visit when the Zhenbei Palace was still there, she would have been flattered, but now, she is an old lady with a poor family background.

In addition, thinking of the old lady's cold treatment to her before, Liu Rumian couldn't hide her resentment, so when the old lady went to visit, she actually lay on the bed and didn't get up, her attitude was very contemptuous.

Nanny Gui, who was beside the old lady, couldn't stand it and wanted to have a fit, but was stopped by the old lady raising her hand. .seven

When the old lady left, Liu Rumian sneered: "Now I know how to be courteous, what should I do!"

In the end, she called Wen'er to her side and asked Wen'er to buy preserved fruit.

I have no taste in my mouth during pregnancy, so I want to eat these things.

Wen'er hesitated: "Madam, son, he told us not to go out."

Liu Rumian hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's okay, don't go too far, just find a place nearby to buy it and come back, something will happen!"

Wen'er was still a little embarrassed: "But those people are guarding the door viciously."

Liu Rumian said casually, "It's okay, I'll send people away later, you should be smart..."

Sheng Nuan was decocting medicine for the old lady, when the customer service suddenly reminded: "Wen'er was sent by Liu Rumian to buy preserved fruit, and met a servant of the Ninth Prince's residence."

Sheng Nuan was startled, and then cursed in a low voice.

After frowning and thinking for a moment, she called Xue Nan to her.

Before leaving, Xiao Dingcheng told Xue Nan and the others that everything in the family was under Sheng Nuan's control.

Sheng Nuan remained silent, and asked Xue Nan to take someone to send the old lady, the princess, and Nanny Gui away... It will be a while later, and I am afraid it will be impossible to hide.

Xue Nan knew the importance, without hesitation, took the money from Sheng Nuan and asked the brothers to pack up their things and take the old lady and princess away.

The old lady and the princess knew very well in their hearts, they left in a hurry without asking anything...

Not long after, Wen'er sneaked back from the outside. When she entered the door, she poked her head around and looked around. She didn't see those men, so she breathed a sigh of relief and hurried into Liu Rumian's wing.

In less than an hour, Sheng Nuan knew from the system that this yard was being watched.

If she had hesitated for a moment just now, none of them would have been able to leave...

That night, she cooked and decocted medicine in the kitchen as usual, then delivered food and medicine to the rooms of the old lady and the princess, and purposely said a few loud words to tell them to take a good rest.

In the south wing, Wen'er and Liu Rumian were talking while eating Wen'er's cooking.

Wen'er was a little suspicious: "Those men suddenly disappeared."

Liu Rumian snorted: "Don't pay attention to them, they are just a few vulgar servants..."

The master and servant lay down early after tidying up... Just before dawn, the mountain shook with a bang.

Liu Rumian sat up suddenly in shock: "What's the matter, what happened?"

Wen'er was also at a loss.

Soon there were noisy voices outside... Liu Rumian and Wen'er huddled under the quilt tremblingly, not daring to make a sound.

In the east wing, Sheng Nuan sat on the bed with a calm expression.

She knew that Xiao Dingcheng brought the Suzaku camp back...
