Chapter 420: The Tiger Falls to Pingyang
Chapter 423
Cheng Dalei shook around Toad City, and finally went to find Li Wan'er with his things.
At today's award ceremony, Li Waner did not appear. Cheng Dalei wants to hand over the prize to her in person, in fact, these days, Cheng Dalei tries to have more contact with Li Wan'er, but in his heart, Cheng Dalei is reluctant to meet Li Wan'er.
Chang'an and Qinchuan Pass are far apart, and there is a certain time lag for news to be transmitted here. Although Cheng Dalei will not be involved in this troubled water, he has been collecting news from Chang'an.
In the past few days, the news from Chang'an City has reached here, and the situation is not very good. As for the matter of the Righteous Sect burning, killing and looting in Chang'an City, Cheng Dalei was not even surprised. In this era of cold weapons where eating is a problem, Cheng Dalei cannot expect everyone to have a high moral quality. What is the war for, isn't it just to grab money, food, and women? If it weren't for the lack of food, who would believe in the toad god.
But the news is terrible for Li Wan'er. Her father, Emperor Ming, was killed, her sister was abused, and her relatives became dead under the knife...... Cheng Dalei himself didn't know what he would do if he were to change to Li Wan'er's position.
Now these things are still hidden from Li Wan'er, but with Li Wan'er's cleverness, Cheng Dalei doesn't believe that she will not notice it at all. Cheng Dalei wanted to chat with Li Wan'er more to comfort her mood, but he concealed these things in his heart, Cheng Dalei was a little weak after all.
"Ha, busy!"
When Cheng Dalei walked into the courtyard, he saw Li Wan'er sitting in front of the courtroom reading, flipping through a copy of "Mountains and Rivers Can Be Examined". Cheng Dalei feels that reading is always a good thing, and his mind is in the book, and he doesn't care about things far away in Chang'an.
Li Wan'er glanced up at Cheng Dalei, with a smile on the corner of her mouth. Somehow, the calmer Li Wan'er behaved, the weaker Cheng Dalei became. If she suffers for a while, Cheng Dalei can relax more.
"Why didn't you go today, let me tell you, it's a lively day. Qin Man defeated Guan Yu, Guan Yu was not convinced, and he had to make an appointment to fight again. Cheng Dalei put things down: "Oh, quietly, the silk from Jiangnan, it is not easy to get such goods now." ”
After the food was satisfied, Cheng Dalei began to develop light industry, and now paper and numb toad city can produce it by itself.
Li Wan'er held the silk in her hand and expressed her gratitude and praise. However, Cheng Dalei always felt that the other party was holding himself and chatting, as the most spoiled princess of Emperor Ming, Li Wan'er had never seen anything, this kind of silk was a treasure in Cheng Dalei's eyes, I am afraid that in the eyes of others, it would be too good to lay a kennel.
Then, Li Wan'er raised her head and asked, "Is there any news from Chang'an City?"
"The situation in Chang'an is fine, it's ...... anyway" Cheng Dalei noticed Li Wan'er's eyes, he planned to say something casually like before, but at this moment he didn't want to deceive again.
After all, sooner or later it will have to be faced.
"Chang'an has been breached. "Cheng Dalei.
"Oh, I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”
Contrary to Cheng Dalei's expectations, Li Wan'er's eyes were very calm. I didn't even ask about the aftermath of the siege, I'm afraid that those would have been thought of a long time ago.
Cheng Dalei was about to say some comforting words, but he felt that it was superfluous to say anything. Encountering this kind of thing cannot be comforted by a few words.
In the end, Cheng Dalei didn't say anything and left the courtyard gloomily. Some things have to be faced by Li Wan'er herself after all, and Cheng Dalei can't replace them with himself.
Fortunately, Li Wan'er behaved very calmly, if it was Li Wan'er in the past, I am afraid that the sky would have been turned upside down. No, the thunder is a little nostalgic for Li Wan'er who used to make trouble. Li Xingzai said that Princess Mingyu of the empire was already dead on the grassland, and she was afraid that at the moment when she decided to make peace, the former Li Wan'er had been killed by herself.
Cheng Dalei walked on the street, thinking about his heart.
"Big boss, big boss......"
The high-flying leopard ran briskly from the opposite side, with an anxious look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Dalei was a little absent-minded.
Gao Feibao has been a little aggrieved these days, he can't compare to Fan Lihua in riding, and there is a group of people pressing him in the cottage alone, he wanted to get a ranking in this martial arts competition, but in the end he didn't catch anything, and even his leopard army couldn't raise his head.
He came over in such a hurry, did he want to talk to himself about it, but Cheng Dalei's current mood, where does he have time to care about this.
"Big boss, it's not good, my eldest brother is here!"
Cheng Dalei's eyes lit up, and only then did he have some energy. He glanced at the other party: "Your eldest brother is here when he comes, what is a big thing that is not good, where are you now?"
used to fight side by side, and the feelings were naturally different from others, and Cheng Dalei was also very happy about Gao Feihu's arrival.
But Gao Feibao had a bitter face and said, "My eldest brother was blocked in the middle of the road, and he can't come over now." ”
"Uh...... Where are you blocked?"
"Liangzhou, Morning Glory Valley. ”
"Let's go, go to the city lord's mansion to talk, and call everyone together. ”
Cheng Dalei appeared in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, he sat behind the handsome case, and on his left hand were Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Zilong, Fan Lihua, and Gao Feibao. On his right hand are Xu Shenji, He Shen, Wu Yong, etc.
Recently, there has been no big deal in the cottage, and Cheng Dalei is by no means a person who must do everything himself, and there are still few people in the cottage who are so together.
In front of Cheng Dalei, there was a person standing with injuries on his body. His name is Xu Song, and he is Gao Feihu's subordinate, and this time he rushed out of the encirclement to report the news.
"Tell me, what's the specific situation?" asked Cheng Dalei.
Xu Song didn't see the thunder in the process, and it was Gao Feihu's subordinate who was later accepted. Of course, he is no stranger to Cheng Dalei's name, and knows that this is his boss's boss.
It turns out that if there is chaos today, Jiangnan will not be at peace. Li Xing embraced his own troops and wanted to cut off the emperor, and Gao Feihu's group of people became a thorn in their side.
Today, Gao Feihu also has 10,000 horses under his command, which is not a small force in Jiangnan. I don't know how many people are staring at this group of people, and several waves of people come to be lobbyists every day, trying to pull Gao Feihu under their command.
Gao Feihu also saw clearly that the situation was not good, either he was enough for people, or he was afraid that he would be swallowed as prey.
Simply, Gao Feihu gave up the foundation of Jiangnan and came to Liangzhou to join Cheng Dalei.
Although Cheng Dalei stayed at home, he also had his reputation in the world, and everyone knew that he built a city in Liangzhou and became the lord of Qinchuan and the hero of Liangzhou.
Gao Feihu's journey was not smooth, trekking through mountains and rivers, and finally arrived in Liangzhou. It happened that he was stopped at the border of Liangzhou, fought a battle with the defenders of Liangzhou City, lost the enemy, and hid in the Morning Glory Valley of Liangzhou.
That's why Xu Song broke through the siege and asked Cheng Dalei to solve the siege.
