Tianshui County, the county guard.

Watching the light of the candle swaying in the wind, Wang Kun was extremely irritable in his heart.

As the county guard of Tianshui, Wang Kun is now under semi-house arrest. He could go anywhere in Tianshui City, except for the city gates, and he didn't even have a chance to come into contact with any of the soldiers. The two partial generals in the army, Ma Shu and Yin Qian, have completely controlled the army, and there is no doubt that their allegiance is to the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Yang Jian, and they have nothing to do with Wang Kun, and they are even more mortal enemies with Li Xinchen outside the city and those families who are in trouble.

The huge Tianshui City was like a cage, enveloping him in it.

This made Wang Kun helpless, he asked himself if he was not a good official who loved the people like a son, he originally thought that it was okay to wait for death in this position, and he didn't expect any opportunities to be promoted and then soar.

As an ordinary magistrate, in the state that the local tycoons have rebelled, he doesn't need much to do, cooperate with the grass kings in these places, obediently accept the change of dynasty, and then either be driven away, or continue to be his parent official. Wang Kun asked himself that the relationship with Tianshui Liang and other families was not bad, so he didn't think that he would step down, or that the reason why he was able to sit so stable was because he had always supported these local families, so they would not deliberately create chaos and cause trouble for Wang Kun when evaluating their political performance and so on.

It's just that Wang Kun didn't expect that all this went smoothly and came to an abrupt end in the middle of the process, and now the city no longer belongs to him, and the generals who take over the city may kill him at any time because they really don't like him.

There are not many garrisons in Tianshui, and there is not much contact with the officials in the city on weekdays, Wang Kun asked himself if he has much friendship with them, although now Wang Kun wishes that he can call them brothers, but it is too late.

"Enlightenment is too guarded ······" A servant cautiously pushed open the half-closed door, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Someone has come to visit at the back door." ”

"What?" Wang Kun was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard.

"There is someone at the back door, who claims to be a friend of Taishou, who has not seen him for many days, and misses him very much, so he came at night." The servant said hurriedly.

Wang Kun was a little stunned, but he immediately vaguely realized something, and hurriedly stood up: "Let's go, I'll go with you to meet you." ”

It's just that Wang Kun didn't expect that before he could walk to the backyard, a figure had suddenly appeared in front of him, which made Wang Kun stunned for a moment, but when he saw the person coming, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Liang, why did you come here without saying hello, and you made it so mysterious." ”

As he spoke, Wang Kun subconsciously took two steps back. At least from the current standpoint, the two are friends and foes.

It was Liang Luan who appeared in front of Wang Kun, but at this time, Liang Luan also wanted to cry without tears about this question in his heart. As the confidant of the family, he often travels back and forth between various forces, so he should be regarded as the Liang family that Wang Kun is most familiar with, so there is no problem in letting Liang Luan come as the envoy of the Liang family.

But for Liang Luan, what is the difference between this and walking on the knife mountain with his head? Not to mention that behind him is a little madman who is simply a copy of Li Xinchen.

In the darkness, a person unconsciously moved from behind Liang Luan and appeared in the dim light, which made Wang Kun startled, and the lantern in the hand of the servant next to him also fell directly to the ground. The man wrapped in the cloak smiled and picked up the lantern, re-illuminating Wang Kun's uncertain face. Wang Kun realized something, and glared at the servant fiercely, and the servant hurriedly bowed and retreated.

At this time, the man in black said unhurriedly: "It's a hurry, since the back door is only half-hidden, then take the liberty to come in, and please don't be surprised." ”

Liang Luan smiled bitterly, and then said: "Brother Wang, it's cold and windy in the middle of the night, don't you want to invite us in and sit down?" ”

Wang Kun only reacted at this time, and hurriedly made a gesture of please.

Although he didn't know why Liang Luan and this black-clothed man of unknown origin appeared at this time, he could also vaguely realize that something must have happened. At this time, after Liang Luan walked into the room, he just smiled slightly: "Taishou is sitting alone in the study, he must have been trapped for a long time." ”

Wang Kun frowned: "We are friends and enemies, please say anything if you have something to say." If it's procrastinating, don't blame my men for being ruthless. ”

Liang Luan laughed, but did not speak, and the man in black, Shi Shiran, sat down, stretched out his hand and lifted the cloak on his head, and said with a smile: "Why should Taishou be angry, now that Taishou is in such a situation, he has already told us that you will not do this." Why not just do it and listen to what we have to say. ”

Wang Kunhu looked at this man in black suspiciously, not only was he not polite, but also a little aggressive, this guy looked like he was in his early twenties, but it seemed that Liang Luan was just his subordinate. Wang Kun knows Liang Luan very well, as a confidant of the Tianshui Liang family, although his status is not high, but who dares to underestimate it? This word and deed represents the Tianshui Liang family, so the characters on the stage also have to be polite to him.

But today, it is obvious that Liang Luan is polite to this man in black.

"Introduce yourself, Sun Sheng, the chief secretary of the marching army under the command of the general of Zhengbei." The young man said unhurriedly at this time, solving the doubts in Wang Kun's heart.

Wang Kun's hand trembled, of course it was impossible for Changsun Sheng not to know that the young head of the Changsun clan was actually acting on behalf of the Changsun clan now, and the Changsun clan and the Longxi Li clan and the Hongnong Yang clan were already standing together, but behind Changsun Sheng were Li Xinchen and Yang Su, how could Wang Kun not be surprised?

"I didn't expect it to be the eldest grandson and the young head of the family, it's polite." Wang Kun hurriedly stood up and saluted, and it was obvious that putting up a fight with this kind of person who was born much nobler than himself was just asking for hardship.

Changsun Sheng smiled and got up to return the salute, and then said: "Taishou doesn't need to be so polite, we don't say secret words, Brother Liang told a certain that Taishou has always agreed with the general, but he was trapped in the city, and he used the relationship of the Liang family in Tianshui to venture into the city, just to be able to meet Taishou and help Taishou stabilize the situation in Tianshui." ”

"The soldiers and horses of Da Situ are coming soon, and they are ······ at this time" Wang Kun suddenly frowned. He still knows the methods of the Northern Zhou Dynasty Situ Yuyi, which is why Wang Kun accepted his fate after that, after all, he had to face the attack on the wing later, and rebellion at this time was not necessarily a good thing. And this undoubtedly strengthened the confidence of the generals defending the city.

This is also where he feels strange, no matter what Changsun Sheng says, he is also the young master of the Northern Zhou Great Family, how could he not know how terrible it is for Yu Yi to kill such an old man?
