The guard laughed bitterly. "They are the people of Yile, unarmed people, men, women, young and old, all of them..."

"They were also forced. If they retreated, the Iranian soldiers would chop off their heads without hesitation."

His words were like a spark that accidentally flew into a pile of firewood, quickly igniting the anger in the hearts of the soldiers.

"Is King Yilie crazy? Even if he was fooled by Anda, he would not let his own people go to the battlefield, right?"

"All the people are dead, what kind of king is he!"

"I really don't understand. I suggest he go to our Daliang Xinglin Pavilion to have his brain checked out."

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Rong Ba's mind.

"What we are saying is, is there a possibility that King Yilie also wants to take this opportunity to annex Wusun?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and Rong Liu looked at Rong Ba in disbelief.

"Brother, are you possessed by a ghost? How can your brain be so flexible?"

"Get lost! Don't sleep too deeply at night, I'll kill you sooner or later!"

Rong Ba kicked him unhappily and looked at Xie Yuheng who had remained silent. "What do you think, Master?"

"Not impossible."

Xie Yuheng put down the teacup, stood up, and glanced at the bitter-faced guard, "I have something to go out for, you don't have to follow me."

Rong Liu and others nodded like obedient puppies. After Xie Yuheng left, they secretly looked at Rong Shi's expression.

The master doesn't bring Big Brother with him when he goes out. Does this mean Rong Shi has fallen out of favor? Now is their chance!

Rong Shi didn't even bother to move his eyelids. He had followed Xie Yuheng the longest and knew the most things.

He thought that his master should be looking for the Wudesi spy in Jiaohe City.

After all, the Western Xiongnu was a vassal state of Daliang, but we couldn't make a rash decision based on their words alone.

Just as Rong Shi expected, Xie Yuheng did go to the Wudesi Jiaohe City stronghold.

This guy is actually not that bad, he is still useful sometimes.

After exchanging secret codes with the shopkeeper and handing over the token given by Chu Chen, Xie Yuheng was led into the backyard.

As soon as she entered, a young man came forward and bowed to her, "Greetings, Marquis Jiangling!"

"No need to be polite. I came here to ask..."

Xie Yuheng asked the spies from the Wude Division to verify what the Western Xiongnu said.

The young man warmly led Xie Yuheng to sit down and said, "It is true."

"Also, according to the reports from the spies ahead, it seems that there were also disagreements among the Western Xiongnu, which is why they were unable to withdraw their troops in time."

"My Lord, are you planning to support the King of Xixian?"

Xie Yuheng nodded, "There is another girl from the Pei family who was rescued by the King of the West and she is also accompanying them this time."

The young man hesitated and said, "Excuse me, but it is too dangerous to rescue him at this time."

"Why don't you wait until the army sets out before we act together?"

Xie Yuheng refused. It would take a long time to wait for the army to move out from Yumen Pass!

Be it Pei Qiu or King Xixian, neither of them can wait that long.

Moreover, the information about Pei Qiu was of great importance. If the information was cut off, it would take an unknown amount of time to investigate.

As for danger, it's not certain who is in danger...

Xie Yuheng raised his lips to smile, looked up at the scorching sun in the east, and changed the subject.

"Have you received any news from the country recently? How is the war situation with Fuso along the coast?"

The young man went into the room and took out a few small rolls of letter paper, and handed them to Xie Yuheng, "The last time I received news was in early May."

"Former Goryeo Crown Prince Jin Xiao has been ordered to rush to the front line of Youzhou. He has gathered many Goryeo people to fight against Fuso together with the Youzhou army."

"There is also the governor of Yangzhou, who invented a small thunderbolt. Although its power is not very strong, combined with the belief in ghosts and gods, it has frightened the Fuso people for quite some time..."

Xie Yuheng smoothed out the letter paper and looked at them one by one.

After learning that the country was safe, she left the Wudesi stronghold and waited to reach a deserted place.

Suzaku came out from her clothes and blinked his bird eyes in confusion, "Chijiji?"

"You really want to go to Wusun King City, what if something happens in Daliang at this time?"

In this era when travel depends entirely on foot, even if one changes horses along the way and travels all night, the human body cannot bear it.

It is certain that he will die within two days of riding, go to heaven, and become one of the immortals.

Xie Yuheng did not answer its question, but just walked along the streets of the city. Everywhere he looked was desolate.

Even though the war did not extend to this place...

Even though the Daliang army under Chu Chen never massacred a city...

There were not many common people in the city. Occasionally, she saw a few, but they all walked in a hurry and did not dare to look at her.

Whether it was the news of the coalition's defeat or the news of King Xixian's siege of the city.

They all know it, but what’s the use of knowing it for those at the bottom?

Without even the money to escape, I can only stay here and wait for the unknown tomorrow.

On the street covered with yellow sand, the young man in red stood tall and slender.

Although she was wearing bright colors, her every move and gesture revealed the aura of a dignified gentleman, a flower on the mountain top, making people dare not approach her.

The above is what the Wusun girl thought while hiding in the dark and watching.

If the officials in Daliang knew about this, they would definitely shake her shoulders and tell her to wake up, saying that this guy is a black sesame.

Just believe it, and then you won’t say anything!

The girl hiding behind the window frame had doubts in her eyes and murmured something.

"The people of Daliang seem to say something different from what the court said."

"They didn't kill or rob as soon as they entered the city, and they didn't even rob women."

Even the Wusun army couldn't do this...

She had seen too many civilian girls being spotted by soldiers and then being kidnapped, and the soldiers would say that it was a blessing for that family.

When the young man in red passed by the door, he seemed to glance at the window unintentionally.

The compassion in his eyes burned a hole in the girl's heart. She was sad, but she didn't know why she was sad...

She dodged in a hurry, pressing against the wooden wall behind her.

After waiting for a long time, she mustered up the courage and looked outside again, but the red figure was no longer on the street.

……

within the space.

Xie Yuheng placed one on a branch, and her long legs hung naturally, also sitting on the tree.

She raised her eyes and looked towards the Xie family treasure house not far away, and asked, "I have never asked you why the divine power dissipated?"

Suzaku: O.o?

It paced back and forth on the branch, thinking hard...it couldn't remember...

Seeing its silly look, a light laugh came from above Suzaku.

"Forget it. We don't expect our Pig-Sparrow Divine Bird to remember anything."

Zhuque always felt that something was not right, so he tilted his head and thought about it carefully.

After it figured it out, it flew off the branch angrily and returned to its original shape.

The red feathers of the Vermilion Bird can reach a wingspan of ten meters, but there is not a single spark on its feathers.

If you use a lighter, you might be able to set the bird on fire and roast it.

Zhuque was angry, "Are you secretly calling me Zhuque? Don't think that birds can't hear it!"

Xie Yuheng smiled and asked, "How could that be?"

Just when Suzaku thought that someone was going to deny it outright, he heard her say, "It's rare to have such good brain power."
