Gan Xiaoning came over to help Ma Xiaoshuai straighten Gaocheng, and said, "There is someone below the tower begging to see you!"

"Who?" Gao Cheng frowned: "If the group of scholars who are full and have nothing to do, they will rush back...cough cough..."

"No! He said he was carrying an imperial decree..." Before Gan Xiaoning finished speaking, he heard someone going upstairs.

Gao Cheng sat on the ground and looked up at the person. The person was wearing a Huanglong jacket and long boots. This attire was obviously the costume of the second-rank Xuanzhi eunuch next to the emperor.The man's face was a little unclear under the light of the torch, but the pair of eyes were bright and deep, so dark that it was frightening.

"Zhenbei Hou Gaocheng accepts the order!" The man drew on the eunuch's usual high-pitched voice.

Gao Cheng subconsciously knelt down.The man opened the golden brocade scroll held high in his hand: "By heaven's blessing, the emperor said, Zhenbeihou Gaocheng is loyal and fearless, fierce and strong. I am very happy. I can't bear to break the general. I specially ordered Zhenbeihou and the officers and soldiers guarding the city to withdraw their troops and hide." , Start from the future with a picture! This is it!"

The eunuch looked at Gao Cheng and the others, Gao Cheng stared blankly at the brocade scroll in his hand, Ma Xiaoshuai jumped up, and had already put it on the eunuch's neck, and said sharply, "It's another spy sent by He Shen!"

Gan Xiaoning snatched the imperial decree from the eunuch's hand, opened it for a closer look, Gao Cheng stretched out his hand: "Bring me to see!"

The eunuch looked at Gao Cheng's wide-eyed eyes and carefully looked at the imperial decree, with an ugly face, and took out a small bottle from his arms: "This is the imperial wound medicine. I think Gao Hou is seriously injured, so let's stop the bleeding first!"

Ma Xiaoshuai's knife was close to his neck: "Don't move!"

Gao Cheng finally waved his hand weakly: "It is indeed the real imperial decree, the emperor's private seal, I know it!"

Ma Xiaoshuai's eyes widened, and the hand holding the knife slowly lowered: "Then...then...we..."

The eunuch took the opportunity to put the wound medicine into Ma Xiaoshuai's hand: "It's not peaceful here, our family will stay here soon, Lord Gao should go to the inner city to hide as soon as possible!" Then he turned and went downstairs.

Gan Xiaoning was taken aback, then turned to Gao Cheng and said, "He just left? Where are we going to evacuate so many wounded soldiers?" As he spoke, he stood on the tower and looked down, but there was no one there, and he couldn't help mumbling: "Run away How fast!"

Gao Cheng looked at the quiet city, there were not many people left, everyone had heard the announcement just now, and now they all looked back at Gao Cheng.Gao Cheng looked at the young faces, numb, but there was a desire to go home in his eyes.So he finally waved his hand: "Withdraw, I guess the South City Gate will not be able to get out, everyone go to the inner city to find a place to hide!"

Only a few dozen soldiers left gathered quickly and went downstairs.Gao Cheng seemed to have collapsed, he shook a few times, and finally closed his eyes and fell forward... In a daze, he heard Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning shouting.

Yuan Lang was wearing a royal blue tunic with flowers, waving a gilded paper fan as he entered the lobby of Zuixiaolou, and was walking with the dancer Miao'er, Miao'er swayed the clear red gauze on his face with a smile that was not a smile :"You are late!"

The corner of Yuan Lang's mouth twitched, and he smiled evilly: "Could it be that you miss me too?"

Miao'er giggled, her slender waist under the red gauze twisted back and forth: "You even tease me, but I'm afraid you won't be able to serve me!" With a soft voice, she leaned against Yuan Lang's ear.Seeing the two getting close, the people around laughed and laughed at the joke, Miao'er stretched out his hand to grab Yuan Lang's shoulder, when the sleeves of the two intertwined, Miao'er stuffed something into Yuan Lang's sleeve pocket, the two of them smiled tacitly.

After entangled for a while, Yuan Lang looked up to the second floor. Mrs. Wei had seen him from the moment he entered the door. Seeing him look up now, she hurriedly turned her head, pretending not to notice him, and hugged Cheng Cai to speak.Qinyu at the next table also kept looking at Yuan Lang, and said to the children beside him, "Oh, I didn't wait so long for nothing. Look, look, the master is here!"

The children all tilted their necks and pretended to be reserved and looked down. Yuan Lang raised his hand with a smile and "wow" to open the fan, and strolled upstairs. The dude was full of style. Men and women were either aboveboard, or secretly peeping at him.

When Chengcai saw Yuan Lang going upstairs, he hurriedly stood up and hid, Madam Wei grabbed him: "Why are you going? You haven't finished your drink yet!"

Chengcai glanced at Yuan Lang who was walking over from the corner of his eyes, and whispered, "Young Master Yuan..."

"Never mind him!" Mrs. Wei curled her lips: "Let's just have fun with us!" As he spoke, he pulled Chengcai hard, but Chengcai had no choice but to stand beside Mrs. Wei.

Yuan Lang came over and smiled at Mrs. Wei: "Oh, I'm late. I happened to meet some good friends on Qingyun Road, and they dragged me to buy a fan!"

Mrs. Wei snorted, she looked a little annoyed, but her voice was full of coquettishness: "Stop coaxing me, you must have gone to Fanxi nunnery, and that aunt Miaoyin was staring at you yesterday!"

"Oh, that's a nun, it's a sin!" Yuan Lang said with a smile, not at all sinful, just like a weasel who stole a chicken.

Mrs. Wei still pretended to ignore him, Yuan Lang was not annoyed, and turned around to say hello to Qinyu next door: "These three children are very handsome, I have never seen them before!"

Qin Yu twisted her weak and boneless waist and walked over to Yuan Lang, introduced them one by one, and said: "I took them to wait for Mr. Yuan to train and train them!"

"Teaching and teaching?" Yuan Lang smiled, with his crooked eyebrows and eyes twitching, he slipped past the three children, all of whom were new to the style, and all felt numb and tingling all over their bodies, and their hearts were beating thumpingly.

Qinyu covered her mouth and smiled, and said in a low voice, "Young Master Yuan is too lucky not to compete with us for business, otherwise, we would all beggars on the street and starve to death!" This is a bit exaggerated, Yuan Lang is a royal family anyway The descendants, compared with a young man, really lost their status. After Qinyu finished speaking, she also felt that something was wrong. She hurriedly lowered her head and carefully glanced at Yuan Lang from the corner of her eyes. She was relieved when she saw that Yuan Lang was not unhappy and was still smiling. .

But Mrs. Wei turned her face away in displeasure, pretending to watch the singing and dancing in the lobby, her face was a little ugly, she snorted and said: "It's almost three o'clock! I'm tired today, go back and rest early! Chengcai, you and me I'm going back……"

Chengcai lowered his head but didn't answer, but Yuan Lang turned his head and smiled: "It's already three o'clock? I'll just say it! I thought it was just nightfall, and it's all because of the sour scholar who bought a fan and said so much!"

The remnant soldiers on the tower retreated silently, Gao Cheng was already in a coma, Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning were about to go down the tower with Gao Cheng, but Gao Cheng suddenly woke up, and looked back at the red tasseled spear supporting the Gao character flag: "My... gun ..."

Both Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning looked over, Xiaoshuai let go of Gao Cheng: "I'll go and solve..." But Xiaoning grabbed him: "Stop messing around, we have to go hide, we will be caught with a gun, everyone He Shenjun knows this gun!"

"But..." Xiaoshuai turned his head to look at Gao Cheng, Gao Cheng turned a deaf ear to the conversation between the two, and stared stubbornly at the silver gun.

"Master Hou is burnt out, hurry up, it's too late if you don't leave!" Xiao Ning was injured in one arm, and she could hardly hold on now, not to mention that Gao Cheng's whole body was burning hot at the moment, although his eyes were open, he was obviously a little confused.

Xiaoshuai bit his chapped lips, finally retracted his gaze, and carried Gao Cheng down together with Xiao Ning. Gao Cheng looked back at the general flag and the silver gun weakly, until all these disappeared from sight. The person slumped and closed his eyes, falling into the boundless darkness again.

The three of them went down the tower, and the remnants of the surrounding soldiers had already packed up their things and hid in the inner city. Suddenly, a figure flashed on the tower, and Gan Xiaoning suddenly turned around: "Is there anyone else up there?"

Xiaoshuai was surprised: "It's gone, we are the last three... It's broken, and the scout He Xie is here!"

Gan Xiaoning frowned, and suddenly pushed Gao Cheng into Xiaoshuai's arms: "Take Master Hou and leave, I'll resist!"

"Xiao Ning..." Xiao Shuai carried Gao Cheng on his shoulders and grabbed Xiao Ning!

Xiao Ning shook off Xiaoshuai's hand, with a determined face: "I'll resist, before their army breaks through the city gate, you must take Master Hou to find a safe place!"

"What about you?" Xiaoshuai chased after him two steps.

"I..." Xiao Ning looked back at Xiao Shuai and Gao Cheng tragically, and firmly grasped the sword in his hand: "Go!" After speaking, he rushed up the tower quickly, and the sound of fighting came from above.

Xiaoshuai clenched his fists tightly, but seeing Gao Cheng's face like gold paper, he knew he couldn't delay, so he walked out with Gao Cheng on his shoulders.

Yuan Lang was leaning on the attic in the backyard, holding tea in one hand and slowly shaking a folding fan in the other, Wu Zheshi stepped up abruptly: "My lord, all the medicines you want are ready! It's not easy to get some medicinal materials in this time of chaos." .”

Yuan Lang looked at the direction of the North City Gate through the night sky. There was no sound of fighting tonight. I am afraid that the He Sheath Army will be able to capture Yunzhou before dawn. A smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Lang's mouth. Go look for Gao Cheng under the tower and give him the medicine for the wound, if his wound dies in two days, he probably won't be able to survive!"

Wu Zhe nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, you have to be careful! He Xueren will definitely find you!"

Yuan Lang nodded, and suddenly heard someone going up the stairs, Wu Zhe didn't have time to say more, turned over from the attic window.
