The sky is blue and the wind is rustling.
Amid a loud cry of eagle, a white eagle spread its wings and glided down from the city wall, eagerly flying towards the gray eagle in front.
The two-headed eagles, one white and one gray, competed in voice, speed, spread their wings and hovered, almost taking away the beauty of the 30,000 troops below. Let them fly in the blue sky and white clouds!
"Xiaobai!"
Xiao Yi, who came on horseback, was dusty, but his beautiful face was radiant, with no trace of fatigue at all.
The golden sunshine gently shone down in winter. The two young men, who were only a few feet apart, looked at each other and smiled. Their dark eyes shone in the sunshine, as bright as cold stars.
They are not far from their goal!
Soon, the black flag embroidered with the word "xiao" was also placed on top of the city wall, juxtaposed with the silver-white flag. The two flags fluttered in the wind, making a hunting sound.
The soldiers of the Southern Xinjiang Army inside and outside the city all looked up at the two flags, their blood boiling, and the crowd was excited. Even the temperature around them seemed to rise with it, and bursts of cheers and gongs and drums broke out around them. It also made the two eagles even more excited, crowing one after another, circling and playing above.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Guan Yubai's mouth, he looked at Xiao Yi and said with a smile: "Ayi, you came just in time. Now that Zhongling City has been settled, the remnants flowing around..."
As soon as Guan Yubai's topic started, Xiao Yi waved his hand and interrupted casually: "Xiao Bai, we didn't agree that all the wars in Xiye will be decided by you!"
As soon as Xiao Yi finished speaking, Han Yu flew down and landed on Xiao Si's arm, as if he was echoing Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi glanced at Han Yu with raised eyebrows, his smiling expression seemed to say, Xiaobai, look, even your Han Yu has spoken!
Guan Yubai couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiao Bai!" Xiao Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows and grinned with a cunning fox-like smile.
Seeing this, Xiaosi on the side felt a thump in his heart, and had a vague hunch that Prince Xiao might have another weird idea on a whim!
Sure enough——
The next moment, Xiao Yi suggested enthusiastically: "Xiao Bai, the weather is nice today, shall we go hunting?"
The corners of Xiaosi's eyes twitched, and he thought to himself: These 30,000 troops are waiting to follow Prince Xiao into the city. It would be nice for him to say that he is going hunting out of nowhere?
Even Guan Yubai was startled. He originally thought that Xiao Yi would be tired from riding the horse all the way, so he planned to take him to the city to settle down and rest first. However, hunting doesn’t take much time anyway, so why not? !
Guan Yubai simply nodded and agreed.
"Xiao Bai, I knew you were happy! Let's go!" Xiao Yi laughed loudly, turned the horse's head and rode away first, followed closely by Guan Yubai and Xiao Si.
The three of them drove far away in the blink of an eye, only to hear Fu Yunhe and Yuan Lingbai's almost roaring inquiries coming from behind: "Brother, Mr. Marquis, where are you going?"
No one answered their questions, and the tens of thousands of southern Xinjiang troops behind were also confused by this scene. The prince and the marquis are still acting so irrationally. The two armies have just met, and their two coaches abandoned the army and left. What is going on? !
Guan Yubai and Xiaosi flew north under the leadership of Xiao Yi.
As careful as Guan Yubai is, he soon realized that the "hunting" Xiao Yi mentioned was by no means an ordinary hunting, because Xiao Yi followed official roads and had no intention of going to the mountains and forests. .
It was like this for half an hour, and it was still like this after an hour...
The further away from Zhongling City, the more empty and lonely the surroundings become. After the horses galloped for more than ten miles, no one from the Southern Xinjiang Army could be seen anymore. This long and endless official road There were only three of them left on the road, and they met no one else along the way, as if this road was specially opened for the three of them!
In the sound of strong and vigorous hoofbeats, the horses galloped forward tirelessly. Guan Yubai did not ask, and Xiao Yi did not take the initiative to speak, but even so, Guan Yubai had vaguely guessed Xiao Yi Where should I take him, but I don't know what Xiao Yi wants to take him there for.
The sun rose in the east and set in the west. I don’t know how long it took. Xiao Yi finally deviated from the official road and headed for a fork on the right without hesitation.
The map of Xiye has long been engraved in Guan Yubai's heart. He is even more familiar with this area from Zhongling City. Even if he has never been here, he can still judge that this path is through Xilin Mountain, Xilin Mountain is not high, and it is not a famous mountain range. If it were not for its special location, it would probably be just an unknown hill.
After the three of them galloped for another two miles from the fork in the road, they arrived at the foot of Xilin Mountain, then abandoned their horses and walked.
When they arrived at the top of the mountain, most of the sunset had already set, and the sky in the west was red.
Following Xiao Yi's eyes and looking down at the scenery below the mountain, Xiaosi let out a low cry in a rare rudeness.
To the northwest, the afterglow of the setting sun casts a layer of golden-red gauze over the city a mile ahead, making it look so majestic and inviolable.
Xiao Si stared at the city. He had never been here before, and it was the first time he saw this city. From this distance, he could not even see the Xiye characters above the city gate.
But, he knows where this place is——
Western Night Capital City.
Xiaosi clenched his fists unconsciously, his face still expressionless, but there were two clusters of flames burning in his dark eyes.
But why did Xiao Yi bring him and the young master here?
Xiao Si narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Yi doubtfully.
At this time, Xiao Yi took off the big bow on his back. This bow seemed to be a little bigger than an ordinary bow. It made Xiao Yi's tall and straight figure look slightly thin. There was a quiver in the quiver behind him. There is only one arrow, and there is a strip of cloth folded into a long strip tied to the arrow, and there seems to be some words written on it...
Xiao Si still had many questions in his heart, not to mention what Xiao Yi was planning to do. However, Guan Yubai already knew. He pursed his lips slightly and looked at Xiao Yi with a deep look in his eyes. After a moment, it seemed that what I was looking at was not Xiao Yi, but a memory from a long, long time ago...
A cold mountain wind came towards me, making the surrounding branches and leaves rustle, and also caused the strands of hair on Xiao Yi's cheeks to fly back, revealing his angular silhouette.
The young and handsome face seems to be one part calm, two parts cold, and three parts arrogant.
The feathered arrow has been placed on the bow by him, and the bowstring has been fully pulled by him in one go. The cold-light arrow tip points directly to the city at the foot of the mountain...
At this moment, Xiao Yi’s eyes were sharper than arrows, but he still had the usual careless smile on his lips, saying: “Fortunately, we arrived before dark, and the light is just right now!”
Before he finished speaking, his right hand had already been released. With a "clang" sound, the arrow shot out like lightning, leaving only the thin bowstring vibrating in the air and making a gentle buzz. The sound was instantly drowned out by the mountain wind...
The three people's burning eyes fell on the arrow that had left the string.
"Whoosh——"
The long arrow carried the fierce wind and flew towards the city at the foot of the mountain, or in the direction of the city wall. It flew farther and farther, but showed no sign of slowing down. It was even getting faster and faster, like a It streaked across the sky like a meteor, and the cloth tied to the arrow was swaying in the mountain wind...
Guan Yubai stared at the speeding arrow without blinking, and many pictures flashed through his mind.
Before this expedition to Xiye, he and Xiao Yi spent several days and nights in Qingyunwu discussing various strategies and countermeasures for the trip, just to be sure. One of the nights, when the two of them were drinking bamboo wine under the moonlight, he jokingly mentioned that when he was young and frivolous, he had thought that one day he would go to Xiye alone and personally deliver the letter of war to the wall of the capital city of Xiye. Go ahead, let everyone in Xiye know the power of his official family and military!
This was just a joke he made while drunk, but Xiao Yi unexpectedly remembered it and actually did it!
Guan Yubai clenched his fists in his sleeves. Gradually, his eyes became sour, but he still stared at the arrow, which seemed to come from the past.
The next moment, I saw that the long arrow accurately hit the cup-shaped flagpole on the city wall. The tip of the arrow pierced out from the other end. The flagpole instantly collapsed, and the Western Night flag hanging above was broken. The flagpole fell down...
The city wall was nearly a mile away from Xiao Yi and the others, so of course they couldn't hear anything, but at this moment Xiaosi felt as if he could clearly hear the sound of the flagpole breaking.
So crisp, so neat, so satisfying!
It turns out that this is what Xiao Yi called "hunting"! The corners of Xiao Si's mouth raised slightly at an angle that Xiao Yi couldn't see.
The three young men stood quietly in the mountain wind. After a moment, the gentle voice of Guanyu slowly sounded: "Five hundred steps to penetrate the pole, Ayi, your archery skills have become better again!"
"That's natural!" Xiao Yi responded triumphantly, high-spirited.
At the same time, there was already a commotion on the walls of the capital, as restless as a pot of water that was about to boil.
The fall of the flag immediately caused several Xiye soldiers to shout like frightened birds:
"The enemy is attacking! The enemy is attacking!"
More and more soldiers heard the sound and went up to the city wall, looking around, only to find that there was peace outside the city wall. The empty plains were clearly visible, and there was no trace of the enemy at all.
"But where did this arrow come from?" A Xiye soldier pointed tremblingly at the feathered arrow still stuck on the flagpole, and stammered, "It can't be...it can't be Was it done by ghosts?"
As he spoke, he looked outside the city. At this time, the sunset had almost completely set, the sky was already dim, and the earth looked desolate and dark, indicating that the night was about to fall.
Immediately afterwards, another Xiye soldier beside him shouted as if he had seen a ghost: "Guan, there are two words for Guan... Look, is this the word 'Guan' for Dayu?"
Several soldiers swallowed nervously. After a closer look, they saw that there was indeed a word written on the end of the cloth tied to the arrow, a word that was very familiar to most Xiye soldiers——
Official.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the city walls boiled instantly.
Guanyu Bai is coming!
He shot down their Xiye banner with one arrow, so what will he do next? !
The Xiye soldiers on the city wall looked around uneasily, feeling that there seemed to be some beast hidden in the dark corners, staring at them eagerly...
"Quick, present this arrow to the king!"
After someone said something, the feather arrow was quickly removed and sent to the palace immediately...
When the arrow left the sight of Xiao Yi and the others, they left Xilin Mountain without any hesitation, then mounted their horses again, this time embarking on the journey back to Zhongling City.
What followed was another nearly four or five hours of galloping. However, none of the three young men felt a trace of fatigue. While the horses' hooves were flying, they felt happy and energetic.
On the way back, it was still just the three of them speeding along, watching the sunset completely set on the horizon, watching the stars and moon in the night sky appear and fade away, watching the eastern sky once again reveal its white belly...
At this time, Zhongling City also appeared in front.
From a distance, the arrival of three horses attracted the attention of several guards on the city wall. As soon as they saw that it was the return of the Crown Prince and An Yihou, they immediately took action. Some went to report to the general, and some The others arranged for manpower to open the city gate.
Before dawn, Zhongling City woke up to the rumbling sound of the city gate opening.
Xiao Yi, Guan Yubai and Xiaosi entered the city without stopping, and went all the way to the mansion where Guan Yubai temporarily lived.
They had just dismounted when they saw Fu Yunhe, who had just received the report, coming up to him with a strange look on his face. He had obviously just gotten up from the couch, his eyes were sleepy, his hair was messy, and his blue robe was full of wrinkles.
Fu Yunhe yawned sleepily, crossed his fists as a salute, and then deliberately asked: "Brother, Mr. Marquis, didn't you go hunting? Where is the prey?"
Xiao Yi, Guan Yubai and Xiao Si walked for a day and night before returning. Even though Fu Yunhe somewhat believed that they were going hunting at first, he later felt something was wrong.
Fu Yunhe looked at the three of them up and down, with curiosity in his eyes.
Xiao Yi didn't intend to do what he wanted, so he dismissed him casually: "Let's solve it on the spot!"
At this time, Zhuzi came in a hurry. Seeing that Xiao Yi and the others had returned safely, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then asked for instructions: "Master, there is chicken shredded porridge simmering in the kitchen. Do you and the Marquis want to use some?"
As soon as Zhuzi asked, Xiao Yi suddenly felt hungry and asked Guan Yubai to drink porridge together.
Fu Yunhe felt as if there were countless ants tickling his heart. He was really curious, so he followed him over and over, saying: "Brother, Mr. Hou, I'm hungry too! I Let’s have porridge with you!”
Until he finished two bowls of porridge, Fu Yunhe still didn't ask anything and could only watch Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai leave.
After Guan Yubai returned to the house, he rested. After a sleepless night, after the extreme excitement passed, he was so tired that he fell asleep... When he opened his eyes again, the sun was high in the sky. It's noon.
He actually slept for three full hours, and he never woke up once!
Recalling yesterday's scenes, Guan Yubai's corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he felt that his heart felt a lot lighter...
After having some lunch, he sat alone by the window of the study and read, letting the warm sunshine at noon shine on him, and everything was quiet.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was a burst of messy footsteps outside the study, and Xiao Yi’s familiar voice: "Xiao Bai! Xiao Bai..."
Guan Yubai suddenly looked up from the book, feeling something was wrong.
Soon, there was a sound of curtain lifting, and Xiao Yi strode into the study, holding a piece of tissue paper in his hand, and his slightly frowning eyebrows could not hide the look of anxiety.
"Xiao Bai, I have something to discuss with you!" Xiao Yi said, handing the silk paper in his hand to Guan Yubai, "This is the letter from home I just received..." As he said, Xiao Yi His face became more and more ugly. This letter home was really too late!
Letter home? ! Guan Yubai was startled, his face condensed slightly, and he naturally guessed that something happened in the palace.
Guan Yubai took the letter and looked down at it. The golden sunlight shone through the window lattice, casting a strange light and shadow on his jade-like face.
Xiao Yili's face almost wrinkled, and she sighed worriedly: "Hey, Ayue must be scared, but I'm not in Luoyue City!" Xiao Yi looked like he wanted to fly back to southern Xinjiang, Gritting his teeth, he thought to himself: This is the real thing. If you want to die, you have to die in Luoyue City, so as not to cause trouble to A Yue!
At this time, Guan Yubai also finished reading the letter, his eyes flickering under his half-lidded eyes, thinking deeply...
After a moment, he handed the piece of silk paper back to Xiao Yi, raised his eyes to look at him, and said with certainty: "Ayi, this person should be Ayimu, the former saint of Baiyue, the eldest prince Kuilang And the biological mother of the sixth prince Carrero!"
