Yun Chu told Yuan Zhen about the Dongshan Village. At any time, talents are extremely important resources, not to mention that the current critical moment when the imperial court is declining and the heroes are competing for the victory. Therefore, after hearing Yun Chu's words, Yuan Zhen was a little moved, "If Han Xiaozhen had such ability as his wife said, I would like to visit the cottage three times and invite him in person, and also take him under his command."

Yun Chu said that this man is cold-tempered and strong, so he can't help but ask for help. Only the strong can make him obey. If you want to take him under your command, you have to think of other ways.

Perhaps because of the sudden attention of Dongshan Village, news about Dongshan Village suddenly came to their ears frequently. They found that the various luxury goods that were highly sought after in recent years in the city were actually circulated from Dongzhou, which is said to be burned by Dongshan Village. A living Bodhisattva appeared in Dongshan Village. Yongzhou City, which almost became a dead city due to the plague, was brought back to life because of her medicine. Dongshan Village developed and improved agricultural tools received attention from the court. The court sent people to spread the word that the owner and the R&D of Dongshan Village came to the court to meet the emperor, promising to submit the position and become an official title...

It is said that Dongshanzhai is a pure land on earth and a paradise...

Dongshan Village is so famous. And these are things that Yun Chu has never seen in his dream, which makes her feel a little nervous. She originally wanted to dress up as a woman to go to Dongshan Village as a lobbyist. After all, there is such a thing in her dream, but the current situation in Dongshan Village is obviously different from that in her dream. Such an accident made her frightened. She is essentially a weak woman, so where can she get the courage to explore it personally?

She thought about it again that there was no such thing as Dongshan Village in her dream. Perhaps it was because it was not worth mentioning. Now Dongshan Village has attracted the attention of all parties, and it is probably not a good thing. Maybe it will disappear like fireworks in a blink of an eye. After thinking about this, she breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Yuan Zhen was still worried and pondering, she comforted him and advised him not to care.

As for Yunzhu, how long has it been since Yun Chu forgot her.

Dongshan Village became famous and attracted the attention of many forces. There were many spies from all directions, but they were blocked in front of the huge iron gate and could not see the inside. However, even if they could not see the inside of the village, all the visitors were shocked by the wealth of the village established outside Dongshan Village. This was the paradise!

There are so many people coveting this rich land. The soldiers and horses of all sides only need to send troops in the name of suppressing bandits. Unfortunately, the soldiers who came are basically unreturned. They either died or were captured and rebelled, and all of them were added to Dongshan Village. The iron gate blocked not only spies, but also thousands of troops. For a moment, the forces of all sides had no choice but to use it. They could be said to be truly self-proclaimed as kings and were free from the law.

There are also many rich people who covet various technologies in Dongshan Village. People who think too high-profile think that they are too soft and want to be tough. In the end, not only can't get it well, but they are hijacked and ask their families to redeem them with money. This is considered extra money. Every time, they have to eat and drink and celebrate inside and outside the village. Is it so happy?

Gradually, the population is increasing. With the Dongshan Village as the center, a high city wall has been built several miles away. So this place has become a city, and Ancui is named Xiaocheng. The folk customs of Xiaocheng have become quite fierce and bandit-like. Men, women, young and old are heroic and domineering people. Compared with the thin and timid people in other places, the gap is clear at a glance.

The emergence of Xiaocheng triggered a sense of crisis among all forces. The King of Zhenbei personally sent troops to suppress the bandits. Yun Rong and he worked with him to slaughter the shame of being captured three years ago. Then, during his experiences along the way, he noticed something was wrong.

"Everyone in Xiaocheng knows the interesting things between the village leader and his wife. Three years ago, the wife said before marrying the village leader that she was born jealous and could not tolerate other women. If he dared to marry a concubine, she would break his legs..."

"I have been fortunate to meet that lady. She is really a dragon and phoenix figure, and she is the most beautiful in the world. I have never seen such a dazzling and dazzling woman in my life. She has a certain extraordinary background. No wonder those who try to use women to seduce the leader of the village ended in failure..."

“…”

The more Yun Rong listened to this information, the more he felt that something was wrong. A very ridiculous guess came to his mind. That lady... could not be his sister Yunzhu? No, no, how could it be Yunzhu? He would not know how much Yunzhu has? It was just a coincidence in time...

He hesitated and suspiciously arrived at the boundary of Dongzhou. The local officials in Dongzhou had actually colluded with Xiaocheng. As soon as they came in, An Cui knew about it.

"It's just right." An Cui smiled and was pulling a small flag on the sand table. "Half a month ago, the Yuan family had already left the stage and joined the scramble. The court retreated step by step and had to move the capital to Yicheng. We are almost ready. The country is in trouble with internal and external troubles and the people are living in poverty. It's time for us to come and put an end to this chaotic situation."

Those who came to the meeting were all the trusted generals An Cui, including Han Xiao. They must know more clearly what An Cui’s ultimate goal is than most people, otherwise they will not be able to lead their soldiers to conduct qualified training.

So on the day the soldiers arrived, An Cui stood on the high city wall, looking down at the soldiers and horses rushing like black tides below. Their formation was originally arranged very neatly, but unfortunately, when the artillery fire on their side began to attack fiercely, they were defeated.

"boom--"

"Bang--"

The flesh and blood were flying, without any power to fight back. I retreated as soon as I came.

Yun Rong ran away with the retreating team. When she turned around, she saw a man wearing a gorgeous palace outfit on the city wall, with red and golden clothes fluttering, and her long black hair fluttering in the wind. Her eyes looked down at them coldly, as if she was looking down at an ant...

His pupils shrank into pinholes, and his incredible emotions surged in his heart, and he almost fell off his horse.

When he returned to the camp, he immediately ran to find the King of Zhenbei.

"What? You said that the city lord's wife in Xiaocheng might be your sister Yunzhu?"

"Yes, there is no mistake. Yunzhu is my legitimate sister. She was born very much like our mother. I will never read it wrong!" Yun Rong was determined.

The King of Zhenbei laughed, "Okay! God is really helping me! I originally thought it would be impossible to bite this hard bone, but I never thought that the city lord's wife was Yunzhu..."

"Brother Wuling, don't be too happy too early. Yunzhu knew that you were the one we were going to surrender to, but today he did not show any mercy. I'm afraid he's already holding a grudge against us." Yun Rong sighed and said. It's natural to think about it. A noble daughter from a noble family was forced to marry a bandit leader, but they never sent anyone to rescue her. In order to preserve the reputation of the Yun family, she just thought she was dead. No wonder she was resentful.

Thinking of this, the incredible force and weapons displayed by Xiaocheng made them covet, so they decided to send a message to An Cui, asking her to meet Yun Rong, say something good to coax her, and let Xiaocheng surrender to the King of Zhenbei to help them.

The letter was handed over to the soldiers guarding the city gate, and passed it up one by one, and finally came to An Cui.

An Cui looked at the earnest words above and sneered in her heart. If the original Yunzhu had probably still had a trace of nostalgia for their family affection, but unfortunately, the original Yunzhu's life had been two years ago according to the original work. She had not been able to wait for her family to rescue her for a long time and found that she had been abandoned. Yunzhu, who finally chose to commit suicide.

She replied to the letter and agreed to meet Yun Rong.

Not long after, Yun Rong quietly came to Xiaocheng. There was someone who responded to him at the gate of the city, and quietly took him into the city lord's mansion. Yun Rong did not notice something was wrong. He only thought that An Cui was just a woman after all, and if Han Xiao found out, it would be inappropriate. A group of bandits did not believe that there was really any kindness and righteousness.

As a result, he was just taken into the city lord's mansion. After a turn, the lead man suddenly disappeared. He was shocked and at a loss when a harsh sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded around him, and even a bell sounded quickly. The sound was so loud that the entire Xiaocheng people woke up from their sleep and rushed out of the house with their weapons.

Yun Rong was caught by the guards who rushed out. He was shocked. Seeing An Cui and Han Xiao coming over, he was clearly familiar faces, but he felt so strange.

On such a lively night, Yun Rong was pressed to the announcement stage in front of the city lord's mansion. Feeling the hostile gaze of the crowd gathered below, An Cui stood aside and said, "Driving away one after another, endlessly, we just want to live a stable life and never compete with them at all, but we don't want to be guilty of possessing a treasure. It is impossible for the world to tolerate it!"

The hostility in people's eyes has turned into hatred, and they all hold their weapons tightly, gritting their teeth with hatred.

Yun Rong didn't understand why An Cui did this. At this moment, he suddenly understood that she was not simply trying to retaliate against him, what she wanted was...

"In this way, why don't we fight for the world as well, and see who will control the country!"

That night, Xiaocheng was "forced" to join the battle.

Yun Rong was thrown into prison and realized that he was just being used.

He, King Zhenbei, and all the troops who came to suppress the bandits before, became legitimate reasons for Xiaocheng to fight for the world. Originally, people were living a very bad life because of the nobles' fighting for power and profit. No matter which force they offered, the people actually felt very disgusted and had no favoritism. But they were like ants, and no matter how disgusted they could do anything. They could only accept all this silently, and neither supported nor opposed it.

Now everyone in the world thinks that Xiaocheng was forced to go to the forefront and was forced to rise up. In addition, Xiaocheng's good reputation in recent years is probably a commoner who will empathize with them, and even think that they are the best destination, which is more trustworthy than any force.

No one knows what impact these ants, who seem small and don’t even think they have much energy, will have on the battle situation.

After entering prison, Yun Rong realized that the person who was the real leader of Xiaocheng was actually the city lord's wife rather than the city lord. The city lord's wife was indeed named Yunzhu. For a moment, he was extremely regretful and left Yunzhu alone for himself to escape, and underestimated this sister for himself.

...

Nowadays, in addition to Xiaocheng, there are four forces that want to compete for the world. Unlike Xiaocheng, they are all famous nobles of royal relatives and noble families. They are all nobles under the banner of high spirits. The real court has repeatedly moved the capital within three years, retreating step by step, collapsed and completely changed the dynasty.

The addition of Xiaocheng surprised them, but they didn't take it seriously. After all, compared with them who have been accumulating their strength for many years, Xiaocheng has no ability to compete with him no matter how he looks at it.

However, he did not expect that Xiaocheng won two cities in just three days without a single soldier, which was Dongzhou and Yongzhou City. Dongzhou officials had long colluded with Xiaocheng and opened the door to welcome him early. Yongzhou City was originally an abandoned city due to the plague. If it weren't for the rescue from Xiaocheng, the people inside would have been dead. Therefore, the people in Yongzhou City opened the city gate and welcomed them in. The joyful appearance seemed to have been waiting for this day in their hearts for not knowing how long it had been.

This was just the beginning. After that, the army of Xiaocheng was unstoppable. Often, the city guards they wanted to attack would be attacked internally and externally. The inside was the people who seemed to be fish and meat. They thought that they would have a future if they were ruled by An Cui and others. They turned from fish and meat into swords and chopping, so An Cui and others often did not need much effort to take these cities.

Soon, Xiaocheng captured several surrounding cities one after another, and its forces approached the other four major forces, so that they finally faced the opponent.

Yun Chu was extremely nervous about this because she recently received a message from the King of Zhenbei who had returned to Zhenbei to send all the Yun family members that the wife of the city lord of Xiaocheng was Yunzhu, and Yun Rong was in their hands now, and her life and death were uncertain.

How could this happen? Yunzhu not only did not die, but became Han Xiao's wife? It was obvious that Han Xiao was not close to the female sex in her dream, so she never took a look at her. Why didn't this happen in the dream? She really wanted to ask the old woman clearly, but how could she find it? She could only hold on to the jade pendant desperately, hoping to dream about something again.

Unfortunately, what I dreamed of was still the difference between her and Yunzhu. She was the one who should have entered the bandit's nest and became the second wife of the second in command, and Yunzhu...

Because of this, it gradually became difficult for her to have any new strategies that made her amazing. Yuan Zhen was a little disappointed with the changing situation and asked her to take care of her family well, so she didn't need to worry about these things anymore.

Yunzhu breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she was a waste of time. What does Yuanzhen mean if she likes her or not? Anyway, as long as she is his official wife and he becomes the emperor, she will naturally be the queen.

...

Nowadays, a nest of bandits and refugees have become princes who have ruled over the country. Due to the reform of agricultural tools and planting technology, there is sufficient military, horses, food and grass, and the lives of the people in the city included in it have changed immediately. After receiving support from Xiaocheng, there is finally a bright future. When the news spread, the people in other cities are ready to move, and the lords have strongly suppressed it, resulting in a vicious cycle.

There were also other people who borrowed the bill to deal with Xiaocheng. They pretended to be refugees and tried to sneak into Xiaocheng. Unfortunately, An Cui was prepared for it. It was not easy to identify whether it was refugees?

All the refugees were frayed and thin as if their feet were worn out, and their eyes were exhausted. No matter how spies pretended to be, they could not pretend to be a real refugee. Therefore, they were caught when they entered the city for inspection.

As the center of Xiaocheng, it is like an iron barrel. It is a dream for a spy to enter.

However, the news about Xiaocheng was still flowing out. Today they lost their first battle. Although the loss was not big, there was no doubt that there was a traitor.

During the meeting, when An Cui said this, the generals in the lobby all glared at each other.

An Cui and Han Xiao sat in the main seat together, looking at the people below, some looked angry, some looked thoughtful, and some were flickering.

An Cui's eyes fell on Zhang Lei, the second-in-commander of the past, who was now the right general. "General Zhang, do you have anything to say?"

Zhang Lei said righteously, "If you betray your brother, your crimes will be unforgivable, and your crimes will be punished!"

"That's right!"

"I know who it is, I peeled him off!"

An Cui looked at the person below, took out a jade pendant from the box on the table, and said, "I found the token of the inner force from the prisoner of war. Can anyone recognize it?"

Qin Shixuan looked at the jade pendant and his face suddenly changed.

Zhang Lei was shocked and said, "This, this jade pendant! Third brother!" He looked at Qin Shixuan and felt heartbroken, "I know you have always been dissatisfied with your wife, but how could you be so confused? It is simply unkind and unrighteous to do such a thing!"

Qin Shixuan stood up suddenly and looked at An Cui and Han Xiao with a pale face. "This jade pendant was lost many days ago. I don't know how it fell into the hands of prisoners of war. Although I have always been dissatisfied with my wife, I will never joke about the lives of my brothers. Please observe clearly!"

No one spoke in the lobby for a moment, and everyone looked at An Cui.

Everyone knows that Qin Shixuan is dissatisfied with An Cui. He always thinks that An Cui is using Han Xiao, and this seems to have been confirmed when they start to fight the world. Han Xiao has always listened to An Cui, and he will fight wherever she asks him to fight. He is busy training troops without any matters in the city. She herself controls everything in the city and gains prestige and reputation. If you want to say who has greater power, it is undoubtedly An Cui.

But compared to the dissatisfied people, there were more people who were conquered. Han Xiao himself didn't mind. They and his relatives also lived such a good life because of her, and they also gained power and status. So why should they care about this? Therefore, Qin Shixuan was alone and he was resentful. He could really betrayal because of this.

"You can't prove your innocence, how can you believe it? Keep it up." An Cui said angrily.

Qin Shixuan kept calling for injustice, looking at Han Xiao and hoping that he would say something. However, Han Xiao just drank the wine in a depressed manner, not saying anything, and called him very disappointed, thinking that he had already been poisoned and had no medicine. After all, when the great cause was successful, he would only be kicked aside and the birds were hidden. After all, a daughter from a noble family married a man from a mud-legged background. Although she didn't seem to mind at all, maybe this was a thorn in her heart, and she would pull it out sooner or later.

After Qin Shixuan took him down, the others also retreated. Zhang Lei and the others shook their heads together and sighed that Qin Shixuan could do such a thing. When he returned to the mansion, his face changed. He immediately rushed to the study room and took out the letter from a secret lattice hidden underground. He wanted to destroy it, but he didn't want the door to be kicked open suddenly. He was frightened and turned around and saw An Cui's captain of the guard.

Qin Shixuan was released shortly after he entered the cell, and then he realized that the real traitor was Zhang Lei, and he was framed and blamed by Zhang Lei in the beginning to prevent being found.

Unfortunately, this defeat was actually planned by An Cui on purpose, and the purpose was to test whether Zhang Lei would betray him. As a result, he really betrayed, so he had to eliminate it as soon as possible. After all, knowing that someone was going to betray him, keeping it would only cause trouble for him. The subsequent battle would not be defeated once.

Many people were shocked because Zhang Leisuri was acting normally and had no dissatisfaction with An Cui.

With the conclusive evidence, Zhang Leibian was indisputable, so he simply showed his true face and looked at Han Xiao with resentful eyes, "If it weren't for you, the one who married her would be me, and all this would be mine today!"

Everyone understood and remembered that Zhang Lei was the first person to say that he wanted to marry An Cui.

When Han Xiao, who had always been relatively taciturn, finally put down his wine glass and stood up when he heard this.

He walked up to Zhang Lei, "From the beginning of your thoughts, you and I will no longer be brothers."

He killed Zhang Lei himself and cut off his head.
To be continued...
