All the members are villains, and she just wants to show off when she is dressed as cannon fodder.

It has been some time since Nanlin City was conquered, and the coalition forces have also been reorganizing in Nanlin for a few days.

Because the grain and grass supplies were previously burned by Qu Baiyu, those in the southern city were also transported away in advance, and those that could not be transported were burned.

After Donghujun learned about it, he cursed Qu Baiyu for being a bastard and a dead child.

If the coalition forces want to continue to attack the capital, they can only stay in Nanlin and wait for the supply of food and grass from the rear.

Before you know it, winter has arrived.

The heavy snow is like goose feathers, rustling down.

Yuan Tong'er had nothing to do and was walking around the city. As he walked, he came to a familiar courtyard.

The iron lock on the wooden door of the small courtyard has a trace of rust, indicating that no one has been home for a long time.

I still remember that just over a year ago, the flowers and grass here were lush and luxuriant. Looking again now, only dead leaves are left on the dead branches sticking out from the other side of the courtyard wall, which have fallen layer by layer and piled up under the corner.

This is the small yard where Yuan Tong'er found Hua Buqi...

A strong gust of wind blew up, picking up the snow flakes that had not yet fallen to the ground, hitting my face with cold and pain.

Yuan Tong'er knitted his clothes and stood still.

She was thinking, if she hadn't come to find Hua Bu, would it have been another ending?

Maybe she would see him in a fur cloak here, meet him, be invited into the courtyard by him, have a pot of hot wine, listen to him playing the piano, and admire the boundless snow...

Or perhaps, she wouldn't be forced to run to Nanliang at all. Even if Yuan Wu usurps the throne, he will at least give her freedom.

Then where should she go...

She breathed a long sigh of relief, thinking more and more recently.

Life is unpredictable, and every step affects the direction of the future. Once you have passed it, you have passed it, and there is no chance of looking back. If this is the case, there is no need to regret it.

No matter what choice you make in life, there will be regrets, and no matter how beautiful the chapter is, it will eventually come to an end.

Time will gently rewrite everyone's face and destiny. From beginning to end, there will no longer be any trace of where they came from...

There was a faint sound of footsteps, and Shi Wuji walked over and put a white fur cloak on her body.

"Sister, go back. King Nanliang and others are waiting for you to discuss the war."

Yuan Tong'er wrapped herself in a fur cloak and walked back obediently, asking, "What's the matter?"

Shi Wuqi said: "The mountains are blocked by heavy snow, and the supplies from the rear are blocked at Shuiyue Pass. They may not arrive for a while. But a letter came from Shangjing City, saying that Qu Baiyu had captured the Lizhou army. At this time, it was already The troops came to the city and wanted to take the imperial city in one fell swoop.

The King of Nanliang wants us to take the first step. "

Yuan Tong'er wondered: "Did Qu Baiyu take over the Lizhou army so quickly?"

She thought it would take some effort for Qu Baiyu.

Shi Wuqi nodded, "He killed Yuan Ruo."

Yuan Tong'er stopped in shock.

"He...killed him?"

After all, he was an emperor. Yuan Tong'er had never thought that Qu Baiyu could be so bold!

Shi Wuqi said: "He arrived at the palace in the northern suburbs and went straight to Yuan Ruo's dormitory. Without saying a word, he killed Yuan Ruo. The Lizhou army belonged to his father, and after several of Yuan Ruo's cronies were also killed, It's easy to regain the old troops."

Yuan Tong'er was silent, remembering that when he first met Qu Baiyu, he was so vicious and cruel, and never sloppy in doing things.

After getting along with him as an equal for a long time, I forgot that he was this kind of person.

Because Nan Lincheng is located in the south, it has never snowed so heavily before. Because of the warm climate, when we arrived at Shuiyue Pass, no matter how heavy the snow was, it turned into water as soon as it hit the ground, and the water turned into ice when it hit the ground.

Perhaps it was rare to see rain and snow, and he lacked some experience in dealing with ice and snow, so the road outside Shuiyue Pass had long been frozen into ice. The soldiers and horses carrying food and fodder moved slowly and missed the opportunity.

The King of Nanliang waited until Yuan Tong'er came back and told her his thoughts.

Qu Baiyu had arrived at Shangjing City and met Yuanwu's people outside the city.

However, Yuanwu had always maintained a conservative stance and refused to open the door no matter how much Qu Baiyu called for the formation. He also took the initiative to send someone to inform Yuan Tong'er and others, telling them to hurry up. Lizhou was so powerful that if they didn't come soon, they might just have to pick up the leftovers.

The King of Nanliang immediately made two preparations, one of which was to ask Yuan Tong'er to take Shi Wuqi and others into the city first! As long as we find a way to get the national seal first, people in the world will be more accepting of Yuan Tong'er under the pressure of rebellious ministers and traitors like Qu Baiyu!

When they arrived outside Shangjing City, Lizhou Army had already captured Shangjing City.

The entire city was heavily guarded in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and the main force was concentrated outside the south gate.

Yuan Tong'er understood that this was just in case the Nanliang Donghu coalition forces came over at some unknown time.

After all, what Qu Baiyu wants to get most right now is the Imperial Seal. If Yuan Wu hadn't guarded the palace tightly, as long as he got it, his next step would be to take Nanlin City!

Now, Yuan Wu and them are at loggerheads.

"Lu Xingzhou, if the people we lead face them directly, what are the chances of winning?"

Looking at the row of armored and armed soldiers on the city gate building not far away, Yuan Tong'er couldn't help but ask.

Lu Xingzhou shook his head, "If we only talk about combat power, let's say half and half! But we have to consider the defense. The defense here is tighter than that of the military camp, but the city walls are much higher than elsewhere. It may be difficult for us to break through alone. "

Shi Wuqi also nodded, "Even if we forcefully break in, the city is currently forcing the palace, and there are many soldiers. When the time comes to attack from both inside and outside, it will be even more dangerous!"

Ruan Hongzhu was suddenly startled, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Hey, when did our little Ah Qi grow up with a brain? Can we analyze things lucidly?! I thought you only knew sister, sister!"

Shi Wuqi was not annoyed, but followed her words and said: "Following my sister, I will naturally be influenced by my ears and my eyes! I won't learn from you!"

Ruan Hongzhu was blocked by him and didn't think of how to reply.

Yuan Tong'er didn't pay attention to their mutual quarrels at all, and looked at the city gate and thought deeply.

"Dangers have to be entered. Perhaps, we should learn from Qu Baiyu!"

The others looked at her with some confusion after hearing her words.

Yuan Tong'er's lips curved into a smile, and then she called them over and started whispering.

As the sun sets, a layer of mist gradually rises between the sky and the earth, covering the wild and hazy scenery outside the city gate.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the chill is approaching.

The soldiers guarding the city gate never relaxed for a moment, keeping a close eye on everything going on outside the city gate.

"Everyone, be energetic! Success or failure depends on this! If our county king proclaims himself emperor, the whole army will be raised up. We are all the heroes who founded the country, why are we afraid that we will not sleep in the future?!"

The guard general strolled on the tower and patted the dozing guard.

The guard was puzzled, "General, our county king is about to do it. If you don't put all your troops at the palace, why are you still heavily guarding here? Who are you guarding against?"

Another guard said: "We are guarding the south, so naturally we are guarding against the King of Nanliang in the south!"

The one from before said: "The army of the King of Nanliang is still trapped in Nanlin. Not being able to keep up with food and grass is a taboo on the march. Without food, they will starve to death, so why fight?"

If you want me to say, we should put all our troops in the palace, attack it in one go, and get the imperial seal. If the King of Nanliang and others come back, they will be rebellious officials and traitors! "

"You know nothing!"

The guard general patted the back of his head.

"Not to mention that Yuan Wu has already withdrawn all his troops to defend the palace. Even if we attack the city together, it will take some time. Just say that among the veterans of the Nanliang and Donghu coalition forces, none of them are among the corpses in the sea of ​​blood. Climbed out? Are you going to die if you underestimate them?"

The general said as he looked outside the city, his thoughts wandering to nowhere, and his voice became empty.

"Since they have chosen to take this path, how can they easily let others get what they want? Maybe their people are already ambush in some haystack..."
