The wound on Geng Di's body has been bandaged, but his eyes are still unable to see. He has turned around several places in the past few days, until now his eyes are covered, and Geng Di secretly guesses that this is about to happen.

It was expected that Geng Di fell into the current situation, but it was not expected at all. At least, he didn't expect that someone would dare to intercept someone under the emperor.

Geng Di had been ready since he came to Beijing alone. He assisted the three generations of Murong family monarchs, witnessed the decline and fall of the previous dynasty, witnessed Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty abolishing the emperor to stand on his own, and also witnessed the court turmoil in the last years of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty. The former prince is inevitable, let alone an outsider? This is probably the fate that any famous general can hardly escape. When he was young, he threw his head and blood, and when he was young, he fought everywhere and made great achievements. Geng Di was urgently recalled to Beijing, of course, thanks to Yin Yikun, a villain, but Geng Di knows that the root cause lies in the current emperor. The Geng family has been in Tongguan Luoyang for too long, and the emperor has become suspicious.

But Geng Di himself had a clear conscience, he rejected the radical proposal of the military counselor, left his nephews at the border, and brought only a few cronies back to Yedu. After returning to the capital, he immediately went to the palace to face the saint, impassionedly stated his loyalty, and reminded the emperor that he was close to his virtuous ministers and far from a villain. At the beginning, this method really worked. Geng Di was trapped in the general's mansion. Although his movements were restricted, he had no worries about food and clothing, and was able to tease his half-grown grandson every day. But the situation became more and more tense. In June, Geng Di was arrested and imprisoned. Although he was released later with the help of old friends from all walks of life, Geng Di could clearly feel that there were many eyes around him.

Geng Di's every move was monitored, he couldn't communicate with the outside world, and naturally he couldn't tell the Geng's army at the border. Later, what Geng Di was most worried about finally happened. Zhao Jun spread rumors at the border. A few days later, Geng's army took back Tongguan with difficulty. But this is like an introduction. Starting from Tongguan, wars of various scales broke out in other places on the border, and the entire Qi Dynasty fell into turmoil.

Although Geng's army stood firm against the enemy on the front line, the emperor's suspicion was completely ignited. Yin Yikun desperately preached that the Mid-Autumn Festival rebellion was caused by the cooperation of the Geng family and the Zhao army, and the Geng family had already had evil intentions. The emperor was already suspicious, but after hearing what Yin Yikun said, he became more and more murderous. Even if the old minister who had a good relationship with Geng Di offered his life as a guarantee, the emperor still ordered Geng Di to be executed.

Geng Di sighed after hearing the news. Although sad, it was not surprising, but it was a pity for Qi Dynasty's great foundation. He died peacefully, but was rescued by a group of mysterious men at the last moment. The mysterious man refused to reveal his identity or talk to him, but he treated him very respectfully. Geng Di saw it, and gradually had a guess in his heart.

As the group headed north, the wind became drier and colder, until it finally smelled of sand and hay. During the last transfer, Geng Di was blindfolded, walked around several times, and finally stepped onto the ground at dusk.

Geng Di knew that the base camp had finally arrived.

The black cloth on Geng Di's eyes was removed, because he was blindfolded for a long time, and he couldn't adapt to the sudden exposure to light. Geng Di used his years of experience in the army to quickly restore his mobility. When he was halfway charged, there was a sound of footsteps outside the curtain, and then a child opened the thick cotton curtain and ran in, flying onto Geng Di's leg Up: "Grandpa!"

Geng Di was startled, and picked up the child in disbelief: "Qilang?"

"Grandpa, Uncle He said you came back today, and you really came!" Geng Qilang hugged Geng Di's neck, rubbing his beard affectionately. Geng Di suddenly burst into tears. He was a soldier all his life, and he devoted very little time and energy to his sons. Later, several sons even died on the battlefield before him. Only the little grandson gave him the most simple family affection in the world, allowing him to live a solid and caring life during his stay in Beijing. When Geng Di was taken away by the court, he had nothing to worry about except his little grandson. He is quite old, he has been on the most dangerous battlefield, and he has also been on the most glorious celebration banquet. He has already lived enough in his life, but his grandson is still young and cannot die with him.

Geng Di begged many people, but he vaguely knew in his heart that the Murong family was the most ruthless, they would not leave any hidden dangers for themselves, Qilang probably would not survive. Geng Di was robbed, and his heart was ashamed, but he never thought that he would still see Qilang in this life.

Geng Di never showed any timidity when he was tortured in prison, but now when he hugs his lost grandson, he can't control his tears. He wiped away his tears, looked at Qilang carefully, then put him on the ground, and said, "Qilang, your mother is here too?"

Shichiro nodded. Geng Di said: "Go out and find your mother first, Grandpa has something to tell them."

Geng Qilang obediently went out. After the child left, Geng Di's voice was hoarse, and he said slowly: "May I invite your lord to see me?"

A middle-aged man in green shirt came in from outside the door curtain, he bowed his hands to Geng Di, and said: "Old General Geng Di, I have long admired his name."

Geng Di stared at the man in the green shirt for a while, and asked firmly, "Are you Uncle He that Qilang said?"

"It's He." He Guang stood up, and said with a gentle smile, "The old general protects his family and defends the country. He has admired him for a long time, but because of his poor health, he couldn't meet the old general in person. Please forgive me, the old general."

Geng Di waved his hand and said, "I'm afraid Mr. He is being modest. You were able to save me from the imperial guards, and you were able to pick up Qilang and my youngest daughter-in-law from Yecheng without anyone noticing it. Your skills are evident. The old man is a warrior, how dare he greet you personally as Mr. He?"

He Guang heard that Geng Di seemed to have misunderstood something, his smile remained unchanged, and he said, "It's our honor that the old general agrees with us, but, old general, I am not the master. Our master is someone else."

"Oh?" Geng Di was surprised. Seeing that He Guang was thin and thin, but he had an aura of victory, he thought that the man in front of him was the leader of the operation. Unexpectedly, He Guang is not the lord? Geng Di became curious, and asked: "He Gong is resourceful and charming, but he is not the master. I don't know what kind of demeanor he should have for someone who can make He Gong willing to follow him?"

He Guang smiled without saying a word. He changed the topic, and his face became serious: "The old general is a smart man. I don't need to say more about it now. The old general has already guessed it. In this case, He also Instead of going around in circles with the old general, you might as well talk straight. What does the old general think of the current situation in the world?"

Geng Di's face also sank, his eyes are old but not cloudy, like an old falcon, even if all the feathers fall off, it will not lose its sharpness: "My dynasty has been established for many years. Confrontation. I can't wait for a martial artist. How can I know the situation of the world when it comes to eating the king's salary and loyalty to the king? What the Holy Majesty plans to do next will determine how the world's situation will develop."

He Guang's smile became more gentle and elegant: "The emperor trusted the treacherous and treacherous, and he suspected the old general Geng for no reason. He sent the old general to prison several times and almost killed the general. After all this, the old general still refuses to live with another master?"

Geng Di didn't speak for a long time, after a while, his eyes showed emotion, and he sighed: "This old man has fought and killed all his life. He once thought that my best destination is to die on the battlefield. After death, I can fall into a coffin. Great luck. It is an unexpected joy to see my young grandson again. I am grateful to your master for your heart. However, a man will always look up to the sky and bow down to the ground. What your master wants to do, The old man cannot agree."

He Guang frowned secretly. It took them a lot of effort to rescue Geng Di because they took a fancy to Geng Di's influence on the southwest border. He knew that Geng Di was stubborn and loyal, but He Guang didn't expect him to be so difficult to deal with. If Geng Di didn't cooperate, their army would be very threatening, and their strength would not be enough to compete with the Geng's army stationed in Tongguan.

After Murong Yan left Yanzhou, he immediately connected with the army and quietly returned to Huaishuo Town, the place where the Murong family started. Huaishuo is one of the six towns. The six towns in northern Xinjiang used to be the most important military force in the previous dynasty. The ministers are all promoted from the Six Towns.

Six Towns was originally a fierce folk, but since then it has developed into a pure military town. There are no civilians in the city, and every household is a military household. Both men, women, and children practice martial arts and archery. Later, when the former dynasty moved the capital, some Xianbei nobles stayed in the six towns, while the other moved to Luoyang with the former dynasty. Later, this part of the nobles who moved the capital took advantage of the reform to seize power and became vested interests. Instead, the traditional Xianbei nobles who stayed at the border and guarded their homes were marginalized. Afterwards, the power of the Six Towns was taken back again and again, the military households in the Six Towns suffered financial difficulties, and their political discourse rights were lost. In the end, they couldn't bear it anymore, and the Six Towns Rebellion broke out.

After the former dynasty moved to the south, they were obsessed with pleasure and worshiping the Buddha. How could the army beat the cavalry-based Six Towns Army? In the process, a large number of warlords and officials were trained. For example, the current Murong family in the Northern Qi Dynasty was born in Huaishuo Town, and was finally recruited by the previous court. Another example is the Murong family's nemesis, the Helan family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, who also came from Wuchuan Town, which is also one of the six towns.

Although the previous dynasty suppressed the rebellion of the Six Towns, it was eventually destroyed by the people of the Six Towns. The Murong and Helan families took their place and became prosperous, but the Six Towns inevitably declined day by day. Coupled with Yin Yikun's power in the court, many traditional Xianbei families have been squeezed out one after another. These people have been dissatisfied in private for a long time. What's more, now the emperor is the second son of Emperor Wu of Ming Dynasty, and he has never been raised as an heir. It is the former prince who really comes forward to socialize with the young children of the families. After the outbreak of the East Palace Change, the emperor and courtiers, Changshan King favored Yin Yikun and other cronies, and the original warlord family's status became more and more embarrassing. So whether it is public or private, there are quite a few Xianbei people who secretly support Murong Yan, regardless of personal feelings or future considerations. Murong Yan was able to leave the capital in Changshan King's net, these people contributed a lot.

Nowadays, there are constant riots in the Southwest, and the Zhou army is also eyeing the border. The emperor is too tired to suppress the rebellion and is unable to care about other things. This is the best time to expand his power. However, Huaishuo and other places are located in remote areas, and the local families urgently need opportunities to make meritorious deeds. They also have first-class combat power reserves, which are simply god-sent bases. When Murong Yan returned to the army, his first stop was Huaishuo. On the surface, Murong Yan is just a young general who has just joined the army, but any family with roots knows who this is.

Many people knew that Murong Yan went in and out of the Huaishuo military camp wearing a mask, but none of the rumors leaked outside the city. This is also one of the advantages of the military town. Every family has practiced martial arts, and they have known each other for many years, and outsiders who don't know how to get in can't get in.

Originally, He Guang was worried that the people of Beizhen would be aggressive and unruly, and wondered if they could be subdued smoothly, but these things were resolved after Murong Yan came in person. Some people were dissatisfied with Murong Yan, who walked alone and always wore a mask when going in and out, but after Murong Yan easily defeated several groups of people with one victory, all doubts became convinced. Six towns are martial arts, these people are difficult to discipline, but as long as they are recognized by them, their loyalty is beyond doubt.

After all, the Murong family came from Huaishuo, and it was the peak of the town's military power at that time. It's hard to say anything else about the Murong clan since he came to power, but force never retreats.

After less than half a year's effort, Bei Zhen has basically subdued them. These people were already inextricably linked to Murong Yan, and their fortunes will also be tied to Murong Yan in the future. They can be said to be Murong Yan's personal soldiers. The troops in other places are not to be feared, but Geng's army under Geng Di's command has been stationed at the border all the year round. They have experienced hundreds of battles and are strong and strong, which is not a small threat.

Subduing Geng Di was an important part of their plan, and even Geng Di's imprisonment by the emperor was part of their alienation plan. He Guang was ordered to come to win over Geng Di today, but he didn't expect that after playing so many emotional cards, Geng Di remained unmoved. He Guang frowned, the most important part was wrong, which is not good.

He Guang didn't believe it, and persuaded him again: "Old General Geng, I admire your righteousness, but now the emperor is unkind, treacherous and sycophant, cruel to the loyal, why do you have to work for the faint king who almost killed you? How about..."

"What the emperor is doing now is being deceived by traitors. I just wish I could kill those despicable people." Geng Di's old eyes burst into a compelling light, "It's a pity that this old man is incompetent and cannot wake up the Holy One. He is not benevolent, but a minister cannot be unfaithful. Even if this old man died at the hands of Yin Yikun's grandson, he would not join another camp and betray the king and the country."

Geng Di closed his eyes, and with an expression of "I don't need to persuade anymore", said: "The old man's wish has been made, so there is no need for Mr. He. If you want to kill or cut, it's up to you."

He Guang frowned, Geng Di was more stubborn than he imagined, and it was quite difficult to make a move. He Guangzheng was about to give up, when a chuckle suddenly came from behind the door and window: "The general's words are just and awe-inspiring, but they only touched you. You keep saying that you are for the country and the people, so let me ask you, are you loyal to the country? Still you."

He Guang was taken aback, and turned around in surprise. Geng Di, who had an iron-like attitude just now, opened his eyes suddenly, and the eyes burst out with a light that did not look like his age. His eyes were like torches, sharp and deep, this is the eyes of a famous general.

"Who are you?"

He Guang walked quickly to the door, because he walked too fast, he accidentally choked and started coughing uncontrollably. He opened the curtain himself, coughed and said, "I have seen the young master...My lord, why are you here?"

Geng Di stood up with a bang, staring at the door with burning eyes. The twilight is all together, the night wind is blowing, and the sky outside has long been solidly dark. Because of the backlight, Geng Di stared there for a long time before slowly seeing the opponent's figure clearly.

He wears silver armor, a silver crown on his head, a complicated belt around his waist, and a slender knife hanging on his side. The thick armor further showed his slender legs, thin waist, and straight shoulders. However, the opponent's face was covered with a mask of cold fangs.

Geng Di's pupils dilated unconsciously, and the veins on his hands bulged: "Who are you?"

A beautiful and strong hand stopped under the mask, and his fingers snapped at random, just like this to take off the mask. The candles in the room suddenly made a crackling sound, the flame flickered, and the shadows on the ground also became erratic. Holding the silver mask in his hand, he turned it around casually. He raised his eyes and parted his thin lips lightly: "General Geng, long time no see."

Geng Di's eyes widened, almost cracking his canthus. He stared in shock for a while, then suddenly knelt down, with tears streaming down his face: "His Royal Highness Langya King, you are still alive!"
