Return of the Swallow

Pang Xiao shook his head, patted Ji Zeyu on the shoulder and said: "Good brother, I accept your wishes. You have a bright future, there is no need to delay it for me, let alone can you really let go of the frontline war? You are more familiar with me here in Northern Xinjiang. After many years of fighting with the Tatars, we finally saw the light. Wouldn’t it be a pity to give up? As generals, we must not only consider ourselves, but also the people. If we give up now, what will happen to the people at the border? "

Ji Zeyu was struck by what he cared about, and his expression was a little shaken, but in an instant he became firm: "Then I won't allow you to go back and die!"

"I mean it all, A-Lan, there is no need to stop me." Pang Xiao said goodbye to Ji Zeyu solemnly, turned around, lifted the curtain and strode out of the tent.

Mu Jinghu stood in front of the camp, "Decided to go back?"

"Yeah." Pang Xiao smiled.

But when he looked up, he saw the army officers and soldiers surrounding him.

The Pingnan Army, Huben Army, Long Xiang Army and the soldiers and horses collected along the way had followed Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu for so long, and they had already become extremely convinced of them. At this time, they all looked at Pang Xiao with concern.

"My lord, are you going back to Beijing?"

"Yes. The Holy One has decreed that even though this is a critical moment, I have no choice but to go back." Pang Xiao's voice was blown away by the strong wind carrying snowflakes. His messy hair was blown up by the wind, and he showed a sincere smile. handsome face. 33 novels are updated the fastest. Mobile version: https:/

"In the future, we will have to rely more on you to fight against the Tatars. Duke Dingguo is like a god in his military skills. I believe that with Duke Ding in charge and you guys standing firm, it will be easy to deal with the Tatar children!"

When the soldiers heard the words, they were not as excited as usual. Everyone's eyes were downcast and complicated.

Xu Weizhi sighed: "Your Majesty will undoubtedly die when he returns to the capital. Do you really not think about it anymore?"

Pang Xiao smiled and shook his head slightly.

Huzi wiped his face and suddenly threw the saber to the ground, "Your Majesty! I will accompany you back, and we will die together! The emperor is unkind and unjust. You are fighting the Tatars at the border, but the emperor kidnaps your wife and children. This is such a fucking thing! You are loyal and loyal, but you have always been suspected and suppressed. When you brought our brothers from the Pingnan Army and the new men who joined the army back to the capital, the emperor didn't even let us enter the city gate. Ah! I knew long ago that your loyalty was not worth it! But now, my wife and children are all tied up!"

Huzi turned around, stamped his feet and roared, "We were throwing our lives and blood at the front, but our home was ransacked, or by our own people. Brothers, do you think this is something that people do!"

Everyone has already heard about how the emperor treats Pang Xiao. These days, there are also many rumors about the emperor urgently summoning Pang Xiao back to the capital.

If Huzi scolded him in anger, everyone had already scolded them in private. These men are brave enough to fight with the Tatars. How would they feel if their wives and children were kidnapped because they were afraid of themselves?

What's more, they have always admired Pang Xiao as a person. He was always the first to charge and the last to retreat. Although he was a prince, he ate and lived with them. He never did anything special. He would train with them even if nothing happened. The skills of boxing and swordsmanship, a comrade who has been rolled in the trenches, naturally have extraordinary feelings.

Now that the person they respect has been violated like this by the emperor, how can these passionate men endure this!

"This is too much! What is this!"

"When we were hungry, the Holy Father didn't give us enough to eat. The prince and the princess themselves gave us money to eat. Why didn't the Holy One stop us at that time?"

"It's so chilling for the emperor to do this!"

"Isn't it because I think the prince has military power?

Is he worried? "

"But the prince has never thought about taking his position. If the prince really wanted to take his position, he would have become the emperor a few years ago!"

"Shh, you don't want your life!"

"I'm afraid of a bird! If you piss me off, you'll rebel against his son of a bitch!"

"Yes, you rebelled against him, you son of a bitch!"

…

The morale of the soldiers was high and they roared angrily. As long as Pang Xiao nodded, they could immediately rebel.

Pang Xiao helplessly held his forehead, waved his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, please be quiet."

The roaring like ocean waves gradually subsided. In the camp surrounded by a sea of ​​white, many people have gradually moved closer to this direction.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Pang Xiao hurriedly reprimanded loudly: "Everyone should do what they are supposed to do, don't gather here! The Tatars may organize a counterattack at any time, what's the point of gathering here!" It’s all gone! Go back to your respective positions!”

The soldiers hesitated slightly after hearing this. Some continued to patrol and stand guard, but others stopped where they were and inquired about the situation in Pang Xiao from a distance.

Today, more than 400,000 people are stationed in the camp. The tents stretch for dozens of miles, forming a white barrier between the Tatars and the Great Zhou Dynasty. When the soldiers gathered around the Chinese military tents, they already gained momentum. It's so vast, if it really makes everyone angry and causes a mutiny, it will be uncontrollable by then.

Pang Xiao saluted everyone around him, "Calm down, everyone, please listen to me. The emperor has urgently called me back to the capital. Maybe there is something important to discuss. I have been delayed for many days, and now I am planning to listen to the order. You are here. Only by listening to Duke Ding's arrangements with peace of mind, defeating the Tatars, and protecting the mountains and rivers can you live up to your title of Great Zhou Erlang."

"Your Majesty, stop trying to comfort us! Your Majesty wants you to go back because he wants your life!"

"If you want your ministers to die, they must die. I, Pang Xiao, am loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty. I cannot have any intention of going beyond my limits. Even if I die, I will have no regrets."

"Your Majesty!"

"I have given up. Please disperse." Pang Xiao saluted again.

The soldiers were helpless at this time. After all, they were soft-spoken, but they were really serious about themselves. The emperor sincerely wanted to embarrass the prince, so what could they do?

Everyone dispersed in frustration, making way for Pang Xiao.

Pang Xiao sighed and turned to look at Ji Zeyu who pursed his lips.

"Alan, I'll have to do more for you in the future."

Ji Zeyu clenched his fists hanging by his sides, veins popped up on his forehead, and his whole body was trembling.

Pang Xiao smiled at him, turned around and left. His messy long hair and black robe corners were flying in the wind and snow. Just looking at his back, one could feel the desolation of a hero at his end.

Wherever he passed, the soldiers looked at him with mixed feelings. Some were anxious, some were trying to save him, and some were wiping tears with their sleeves.

Huzi took a deep breath, picked up the saber and chased after him. (first release, domain name (please remember_three

Xu Weizhi also said goodbye to Ji Zeyu and followed him resolutely.

Pang Xiao heard the footsteps, looked back, and said with a helpless smile: "You can just stay. Mr. Xu is a great talent, and he can just help Duke Ding."

Xu Weizhi waved his hand and said calmly: "I have old bones all over my body, and it is enough for me to follow the prince for so many years. Ignore the dragon and the tiger's den in the capital, I will accompany the prince to make a breakthrough."

"Yes." Hu Zi also said, "I have followed the prince for so many years. Even if I lose my head, you still want to leave me behind."

After Huzi finished speaking, he saw dozens of elite tiger guards also lined up, walked up to them in unison, and all held their hands together. Although they didn't say much, their intentions were obvious.

Pang Xiao's phoenix eyes were a little red.

But he just smiled and said, "Why do you have to do this?"

"We will follow the prince to the death." Huzi and Jinghuwei saluted together.

Pang Xiao was quite helpless. Knowing that going back would be a dead end, they didn't want to take these people with them to death, but they insisted on following him. For a moment, Pang Xiao couldn't think of how to dissuade these people, let alone how to find a way out for them in Beijing.

Just when Pang Xiao was in a dilemma, a man suddenly came quickly from outside the camp and said, "Your Majesty! Guard Tang is back with someone!"

Pang Xiao was stunned and said quickly: "Please invite them in quickly."

When Tang Xiu came back, Pang Xiao was not in a hurry to leave, and instead met in the tent.

Xu Weizhi vaguely felt that things had turned around, and discussed with Ji Zeyu to organize the soldiers to disperse first. Ji Zeyu also had a high prestige in the army. When he spoke, the others naturally did not dare to disobey him, and they quickly dispersed.

Not long after, Tang Xiu came to the main tent with a group of elite tiger guards.

"Your Majesty!"

"Why are you back? Where is the princess doing?"

Tang Xiu lowered his eyes and said, "Back to the prince, five days ago..."

Pang Xiao's brows gradually furrowed as he listened to Tang Xiu's reply. When he heard how many injuries Qin Yining suffered when he escaped from the capital, he was already furious. When he heard that they were hunted down on the way and Qin Yining's shoulder was pierced by an arrow, he was already furious. My heart ached like a knot, and my eyes were about to burst.

"My lord, thanks to Tianjizi this time, if she hadn't dared to stand in front of the princess at the last moment, the princess would probably... It's just that Tianjizi was hit by an arrow in the back and an arrow in the leg. Girl Bingtang said that Tianjizi, she The situation of the elderly is not optimistic.”

Mu Jinghu on the side turned pale when he heard this, "You mean, Master might..."

Tang Xiu nodded and said: "The arrow hit the vital point, and she lost a lot of blood. I hurriedly diverted the pursuers to find the prince, so I really don't know what will happen next. In fact, at that time, Miss Bingtang said that the princess The situation with Tianjizi and her old man is not optimistic. Fortunately, the young master and the young lady are well protected, and not a single hair has fallen off." 33 The novel was first published.

Pang Xiao stared straight ahead, his eyes bloodshot, his body swayed, and he staggered two steps before he managed to stand still.

It was hard for Pang Xiao to imagine how desperate Qin Yining would be when he was being chased in the forest. When she went to distract the pursuers in order to protect her children, was she determined to die? If she died at that time, then he would only be able to find out about her after many days since he was so far away. There was nothing he could do for her, not even time to cry.

When she was in despair, did she ever feel resentful? Do you regret marrying him? What's the use of having the children alive if she's gone? He can have many children, but Sister Yi only has one!

"Where are they going now?" Pang Xiao's hoarse voice seemed to be no longer his.

Tang Xiudao: "Shopkeeper Zhong Da said that the princess also has property in the north. I am trying my best to avoid the pursuers and take the princess and Tianjizi to their property to treat their injuries. I think if they are settled well, Mr. Xie will find a way to help them. It’s a letter from the prince.”

After Tang Xiu finished speaking, she lowered her head and saw the corner of Ji Zeyu's robe not far away from the corner of her eye. He did not dare to explain Qin Yining's whereabouts precisely because he no longer dared to fully trust the others.
