When Zhu Yaoshi saw Murong Ling agreed to marry Zhu Xuehua, he knelt on the ground and thanked her profusely. Zhu Xuehua pulled Murong Ling and looked at Li Xiaofei: "Master Li, go and buy a wedding room for us."

Li Xiaofei also laughed out loud: "Okay, okay, I'll buy it for you. I must buy it well." Murong Ling glared at Li Xiaofei and made a murderous gesture with her hands.

The group of people worked hard in Liyang City for a long time and built a large house for Murong Ling and Zhu Xuehua to use as a wedding room. Xiang Xiaoyu prepared account books in advance and collected the gifts at the door. He also sent troops to deliver wedding invitations to wealthy merchants in the city. Come and send them.

The congratulators lined up for half a mile, waiting to arrive with pigs, cattle, sheep, money-making blankets, furs, tables, chairs, and cabinets.

Murong Ling kept Li Xiaofei by his side. When they were praying, Li Xiaofei was about to leave, but was dragged down by Murong Ling to worship together. Everyone laughed together. Li Xiaofei got up and hid quickly, but was pulled back by Murong Ling: "Master Li,

You can’t escape our wedding banquet today.”

Li Xiaofei secretly complained, but Pharmacist Zhu came up to him and said, "I am also the head of the family today. My little sister is getting married. As the elder brother, I must accompany everyone to drink well."

Li Xiaofei glanced at Pharmacist Zhu and said, "I'm afraid your brother-in-law will be tortured by your brother-in-law today."

Xiang Xiaoyu counted the gifts and put them in the treasury. He also collected the account books and went to the table. When he saw Pharmacist Zhu volunteering to pour the wine, he secretly thought something was wrong and said to everyone: "Today is the big day for General Murong and the Zhu family girl. Xiang Xiaoyu should

I just got drunk and rested, but the expedition is about to begin, and the deployment of personnel and materials is all on Xiang's shoulders. Xiang drank two bowls first to express his happiness, and then went to deal with all these matters." After saying that, he drank two bowls in a row to congratulate Murong Ling and Zhu Xuehua.

The couple didn't force anyone to stay, they just asked him to drink again at night.

When Xiang Xiaoyu packed up and went to the banquet in the evening, everyone except Murong Ling was drunk. Zhu Xuehua lay on the bed early. Murong Ling wrapped the others neatly in blankets and placed them by the fire.

He wouldn't freeze to death. But Murong Ling looked at Xiang Xiaoyu without changing his expression: "Come on, let's drink together." Xiang Xiaoyu waved his hands in confusion: "I've already drank the wine during the day, so I'd better send the others back to your bridal chamber first.

We can't leave a bunch of drunks here on the night of flowers and candles. It would be a joke if word spread."

Murong Ling and Xiang Xiaoyu called some soldiers and sent the drunken Li Xiaofei, Pharmacist Zhu and others back. When they woke up the next day, Xiang Xiaoyu and Murong Ling had already gathered their troops, and they were only waiting for Li Xiaofei, Pharmacist Zhu and others.

Li Xiaofei and Zhu Yaoshi walked forward with support, and Zhu Xuehua also rushed over from behind. Zhu Xuehua grabbed the reins of Murong Ling's horse: "If you want to leave and you don't even say a word to me, am I still your wife?"

Murong Ling smiled faintly: "If you don't wake up, I will let you sleep."

Zhu Xuehua punched Murong Ling: "If you don't tell me, forget it. If you want to leave, don't take me with you."

Murong Ling touched her head: "It will kill someone."

Pharmacist Zhu shook his head and walked over: "Brother-in-law, no, General Murong, how can you drink more than us who drink like water? I'm really convinced. Sister, you can stay in the city with peace of mind, we

All we meet when we go out are enemies, our swords have no eyes, and we have to be distracted to take care of you, how can we fight this battle?"

Zhu Xuehua then let go of the reins, pulled some of her hair and tied it to Murong Ling's wrist: "You must come back to pick me up, don't run away."

Li Xiaofei looked at Xiaoyu and was about to leave, and asked: "We are all gone, who will defend the city?"

Xiang Xiaoyu pointed to a veteran on the top of the city: "This is my deputy Ye Xiaoyi. It is no problem for him to temporarily guard the city for two months. Moreover, a messenger came last night to report that the imperial court sent General Zhong Zhiming to take over Liyang."

and other places, we just have to fight.”

Li Xiaofei nodded: "It turns out that we are in the front and the imperial court is in the back to take over the city. That's fine. I've been bored in Liyang City for dozens of days."

Xiang Xiaoyu shouted to Ye Xiaoyi again: "Brother Ye, after we leave, you just have to guard the city according to our rules. General Zhong is here. Give the seal to General Zhong. Everything is at General Zhong's disposal."

Ye Xiaoyi waved at the top of the city: "My lords, I must guard the city and wait for the adults to come back and drink!"

Murong Ling took off her hair and stuffed it into her chest, lifted the reins and said, "Let's go."

The team of three thousand people slowly headed north. Zhu Xuehua climbed up the city wall and kept looking at the team. She did not go back until she lost sight of them.

Two flowers bloomed, each representing one branch. Here, Pajaqili, the Great Khan of the Black Banner Khanate, received Hou Dong's letter asking for help, and discussed the southern expedition with the advisors and generals such as Ke Dunhulu and Hu Gao. As soon as he heard that his opponent was Chen Hongyi

, Pajaqili himself felt a little guilty, and the generals also couldn't agree. Most people advocated not to rescue Hou Tianjing, and just sit back and watch the Qin and Liang countries fight. Some people advocated going south to plunder and return. Hu Gao remained silent, Pajaqili

He was very surprised and asked: "Why don't you tell me your opinion, Master?"

Hu Gao sneered: "I'm planning to run away, so what can I say? If we follow the advice of the generals, our khanate will be destroyed sooner or later. What else do I think?"

Pajaqili and everyone were shocked: "I'm afraid the Imperial Master is drunk on kumiss. How could we be destroyed during the war between Qin and Liang?"

Hu Gao scooped up a bowl of kumiss and swallowed it, smacking his lips: "Tsk, how can I say you are stupid? The Qin army will definitely not be able to defeat the Liang army, and it will only be a matter of time before it is destroyed by the Liang army. After the Liang army destroys Qin, what will happen next?"

It's our turn when we get down. If we don't save the Qin State, we will be dead. If we go and plunder, it will give the Liang State evidence. When the Liang State attacks with all the strength of the country, what can we do to resist it?"

Pajaqili looked at Hu Gao: "Well, sir, we should immediately send troops to save the Qin State. We only saved the Qin State, but then we will get nothing by wasting our troops?"

Hu Gao put down the bowl: "Qin cannot be saved, and we have to save it. We have to completely defeat Qin, and then occupy the land of Yanzhao to fight against Liang. By then we have the land of Yanzhao in hand, and we will not be afraid of Liang."

The country’s millions of troops”

All the generals began to shout: "What kind of idea is this, the national master? To save or not to save, we still want to defeat the Qin State. It is difficult for us to defeat one family, and now we have to defeat two families. How can we fight?"

Hu Gao shouted loudly: "Idiot! Let's find internal agents in the Qin State first. When Qin and Liang fight, no matter which one wins, if these two people, Hou Dong and Hu Jian, are killed, the Qin State will completely collapse. We agree to send troops to rescue.

, he immediately sent troops to occupy Fan Yang and Xiang State. With Fan Yang and Xiang State hundreds of miles away, he then used our army's cavalry advantage to harass Liang Jun and wait for an opportunity to cut off Liang Jun's food route. At that time, there would be a chance to defeat Liang Jun.

"

But Dunhulu saw that everyone was confused, so he explained to everyone: "The national master has a good idea, let the wolf and the tiger fight. We will occupy the wolf's den and then drag down the injured tiger. Everyone understands."

All the generals cheered together: "The national teacher is wise and the national teacher has a good idea!"

Hu Gao said again: "Be sure not to plunder at will and drive the people of the Central Plains into panic. We won't be able to stay long!"

Pajaqili repeatedly said yes, and he and the generals went to arrange the expedition and find internal agents. They were looking for internal agents. Hou Tianjing and Hu Zhun of Qin State came to contact Pajaqili, willing to exchange the population and wealth of Yanzhao.

In exchange for the Black Banner Khanate sending troops to help Hou Tianjing become king. King Xiang was interested in the goddess, and the two sides hit it off immediately, and they made a plan to kill Hou Dong and Hu Jian. Regardless of victory or defeat, Hou Dong and Hu Jian would either return to Yecheng or flee to Fan Yang.

No one can escape the fate of being murdered.

But Dunhulu was slightly worried. When Pajaqili and the generals heard that they could plunder the people and property of the Central Plains, they were all excited and their eyes lit up. They originally wanted to follow Pajaqili in the southern expedition, but the royal court could not do without Hulu.

The guard, Hu Lu, had no choice but to say goodbye to Pajaqili, and repeatedly told Pajaqili to listen to the advice of the national counselor Hu Gao and not just plunder people and property.

Pajaqili agreed wholeheartedly, mobilized 20,000 horses and went to Fanyang. This led to the murder of Hou Donghu Jian.

The Black Banner Khanate occupied many prefectures and counties from Fanyang to Xiangguo. Following Hou Tianjing's idea, each county was still controlled by aristocratic families. The Black Banner Khanate's army was stationed in the two cities of Fanyang in Xiangguo. Pajaqili felt that Hu Gao was in the way, so he

He left Hu Gao and Hu Zhun in Fan Yang to guard the city, and left 15,000 men and horses to garrison Xiangguo. He led 3,000 men to plunder people and property near Xiangguo.
