Mu Chennian looked puzzled. He felt that he should be a person who threw his life and blood, but should not be like this.

"I also feel that the temperament emanating from his dyed hair is that he dares to fight against powerful people, and dares to take injustice."

Bai Haoyu, who has been silent, also expressed his thoughts.

"What should we do next? The city gates around the city are closed and it's freezing. Camping outside the city like this is not a long-term solution." Mu Yunshen said with a worried look.

Several people looked at each other and fell silent. If a war started, life would be ruined.

"Why don't we sneak into the prefect's office again and capture Prefect Zhang." Mu Chennian suggested.

Bai Jianxing sighed: "Your Majesty, you are still too young. The prefect Zhang's martial arts are outstanding and cannot be dealt with by ordinary people. At that time, his martial arts dared to be ranked second in the capital, and no one dared to be ranked first. If you want to win It is simply a delusion to capture him. Not only is he powerful in boxing and kicking, he is also very powerful in marksmanship, and he can easily pierce an enemy with a hundred steps. Moreover, he is not a reckless man, and his literary talent and strategy are also outstanding."

Mu Chennian and others were even more unbelievable, how could such an outstanding person with both civil and military skills fall to this level.

Prefect's Office

Li Changshi looked at Prefect Zhang who was sitting in front of the case and was drawing something unknown and asked: "Mu Shizi and the others should have reunited with the eldest son Mu and the others safely. What should we do next?"

"How are the people in the city doing?" Zhang Taishou asked with a normal expression.

"They are all like frightened birds, hiding at home and not daring to come out." Li Changshi replied.

"How is the supply of food and grass?" Zhang Taishou asked again.

"The food and fodder have been packed, and the troops and horses have been gathered together. We are just waiting for the Lord to speak."

After hearing Li Changshi's answer, Zhang Taishou put down the pen in his hand and looked at the painting he had just finished.

It is a portrait of a woman. The woman in the painting has green hair like a waterfall, red lips like cherry blossoms, eyebrows like willow leaves, eyes like autumn water, pink face and peach cheeks, a bright yellow dress, and a smile like a flower. She is exactly what Pingyang is today. Mrs. Hou, the former Princess Anle.

Zhang Taishou looked at the people in the portrait carefully, raised his head, and said solemnly: "Leave a group of people to guard the south gate and close the gate tightly. No matter what happens outside the city, as long as they don't attack the city, there is no need to pay attention. Early tomorrow morning, we will set off from the North City Gate."

"My subordinates will go down and make arrangements now." Li Changshi clasped his fists and exited.

Zhang Taishou looked at the person in the painting and did not regain his consciousness for a long time.

Capital

Pingyang Houfu

The eldest princess was already in confinement, but because of the cold weather, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stayed indoors.

"I don't know how Chennian and eldest brother are doing, and whether the governor around the city can be dealt with easily." Xiao Zixi looked sad.

"Don't worry, they will be fine. The governor around the city won't do anything to them." The eldest princess said confidently.

Xiao Zixi was a little surprised. The eldest princess sounded like she knew Prefect Zhang, and then asked: "Why are you so sure?"

"He is from the imperial brother's palace. No matter what he does, I can be sure that he will never harm my child."

The eldest princess looked complicated. She didn't know what the truth was, whether it was the villager from Shanjia Village who made the false accusation. How could he do something so reckless as to save human lives.

"Come from the imperial uncle's house?" Xiao Zixi and Ji Ruxue looked curious.

"More than 20 years ago, the emperor's brother brought back a child without a father and mother from the border."
