Chapter three hundred and ninety fifth: vicissitudes

Shui Yiyuan's face was shrouded in the robe. Ye Guan could not see his expression, but he obviously felt that Shui Yiyuan's eyes changed for a moment and quickly returned to normal. It was obvious that his words just now made some changes in this person's heart, but this change was not obvious, but it was enough to make Ye Guan suspicious.

Ye Guan had no choice but to agree to Shui Yiyuan's proposal. Such a threat was kept in front of him. Even though everyone in the Eastern Prince's Mansion was fearless, he was resurrected after his death and became someone else's puppet. This is something that no one saw from afar, and even felt a little scared in his heart.

Ye Guan looked at Kou Long standing beside him, and looked at his pale face, and a strong sense of sorrow rose from the bottom of his heart. This feeling quickly turned into anger in his heart, and the hatred for Tianqing City was already to the core.

The more he felt hatred, the calmer he was, facing such a powerful Tianqing City, Ye Guan felt a strong sense of powerlessness. In front of Tianqing City, the entire Dongwang Mansion was like an ant, recognizing people and kneading. Now he could only agree to Tianqing City's request and protect the lives of the senior officials of the Dongwang Mansion, that's all. Moreover, when he joined Tianqing City, he could clearly know the plan and purpose of Tianqing City. This was also a good thing for the Dongwang Mansion.

Shui Yiyuan looked at Ye Guan quietly for a while before speaking, "You have decided, and you are ready to go with me."

Ye Guan frowned slightly and looked at Shui Yiyuan. He didn't know what the purpose of Tianqingcheng using such cumbersome tricks was to force him to join. If they showed such profound means at the beginning, things might be easier. They threatened themselves with the lives of all the senior officials of the Eastern Palace, even if they were unwilling to, they would agree in the end. It seems that forcing themselves to join Tianqingcheng was not their main goal at all.

Their attack on Zhu'an City is likely to have other purposes.

"No hurry." Ye Guan whispered: "What about my soldiers in Zhu'an City now? What about the forces of the Eastern Prince's Mansion in the enclave? You should give me an answer."

"They can leave by themselves, we won't stop them." Shui Yiyuan whispered: "You can't understand what we want to do now. Follow me and everything will have an answer."

Ye Guan was silent. The more urgent the other party was, the more he felt that there was something wrong with it.

Shui Yiyuan naturally saw Ye Guan's hesitation, and only heard him say, "Since you have made a decision, I can give you time to arrange the things after you enter Tianqing City, you have no relationship with the Dongwang Mansion. After arranging the things you are now, let's go with me."

The tone of these words was obviously not as peaceful as before, and it was a little threatening. Ye Guan heard the threatening meaning and was still shocked. Although he was prepared in his heart that after joining Tianqing City, the matter of the East Prince's Mansion might not be able to control so much, but the words said from Shui Yiyuan's mouth still made Ye Guan's heart tight.

"What if I don't leave you now?" Ye Guan looked at Shui Yiyuan and his tone became tough. The Eastern Prince's Mansion was Ye Guan's always belief and illusion, and it was impossible for him to give up easily.

"No." Shui Yiyuan said: "If you don't go with me, I will leave by myself, but I can't guarantee what will happen later." As he said, Shui Yiyuan looked at Kou Long standing beside him without any trace, and the meaning was self-evident.

Ye Guan frowned and thought about it again and again, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, I agree, but you have to give me some time and arrange the matter here, and I have to meet someone else."

"You can handle it yourself. I will take you to see who you want to meet. It cannot be too long, up to three days." Shui Yiyuan's tone was calm, but Ye Guan heard the unquestionable meaning in this sentence.

Now that things have come to this point, he has no choice. Now the forces that the Eastern Prince Mansion enters the enclave are still in the hinterland and cannot evacuate in a short time.

If you break up with Tianqing City, you may face a situation of no return.

There was no choice but to agree objectively. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay, three days are only three days. Since I have agreed to you to join Tianqing City, all the actions of the East Prince's Mansion in the future, Tianqing City will not intervene anymore. The East Prince's Mansion will use the fastest time to evacuate the enclave and will not enter again from now on."

"It's up to you." Shui Yiyuan said lightly: "Don't interfere in anything, just make arrangements. Three days later, I will go to find you, then..." As he said, Shui Yiyuan looked at Ye Guan with a deeper meaning, and the words he didn't say later were self-evident.

Before Ye Guan could express anything, Shui Yiyuan waved his robe and the blazing red light rolled up and disappeared in an instant. After the red light disappeared, there was no Shui Yiyuan and Kou Long in the room. It seemed that these two people had never appeared before.

Ye Guan stood there blankly, his mind was confused, and he was increasingly unable to understand the purpose of Tianqing City. He had thought he had guessed the plan of Tianqing City before, and they planned to use the Eastern Palace as a springboard to unite the entire enclave, and then attack the Qitian Empire in one fell swoop. But now it seems that this may not be Tianqing City's plan at all, or it is part of their plan, and it is not worth mentioning at all.

The Eastern Palace is only with Tianqing City, and may not even be a stumbling block. If they really want to get serious, they may die overnight, and then be resurrected by them with this strange method and use it. With such a means, they can easily control the entire Eastern Palace's power. With the current capabilities of the Eastern Palace, there is no way to resist.

Kou Long's pale face suddenly flashed through Ye Guan's mind. Thinking that the Emperor Yuanwu Emperor Yongning might also become like this, he felt a deep chill in his heart. He would never let such a thing happen. He had three days left to make good arrangements and try to consider everything, leaving a way out for the Eastern Prince's Mansion.

After sitting for a while, Ye Guan stood up and immediately summoned the soldiers in Zhu'an City. The generals in the city, led by Tu Xingping, came to the place where Ye Guan was, waiting for Ye Guan's orders.

Ye Guan ordered all the soldiers to evacuate Zhu'an City immediately, and immediately notified Ren Zijin, who was driving the tunnel, to let him return on the same route, and all the soldiers acted in unison and evacuate Zongqiushan from the route incoming.

After ordering, the generals naturally looked at each other and fought fiercely for several days, especially after the battle last night, everyone knew that the battle in Zhu'an City has now entered a dead end. There may be only two ways: strong attack and defensive defense. If you return from the original route, you will not be afraid of the enemy's ambush?

Ye Guan naturally knew what the generals were thinking, but he did not explain much. The military order was issued, and no one could disobey. At the same time, because Kou Long died in battle, Ding Jiang was injured and unconscious. Ren Zijin and Tu Xingping were generals in the army, leading all soldiers to retreat. Be sure to return to the Black Stone Bridge within three days, join forces with the Black Stone Bridge guard Sha Shaoyuan, guarding the Black Stone Bridge to defend the Black Stone Bridge to death, waiting for all soldiers to withdraw, and then all orders and obey General Sha Shaoyuan's command.

After giving the order, Ye watched General Tu Xingping, who was reluctant to speak, smiled at the corner of his mouth, walked forward, patted his shoulder lightly, and said softly: "The things that happened next depends on you, and I will take all the soldiers away in a great way."

Tu Xingping didn't say anything, looked at Ye Guan and nodded firmly.

Ye Guan smiled, stopped talking, and ordered the generals to do their own things. He walked out of the courtyard and went straight to the streets of Zhu'an City. He wanted to take a look at the city that changed his destiny before leaving. Since he arrived in Zhu'an City, everything has been developing in a strange direction and is becoming increasingly uncontrollable. But now that things have come to this, Ye Guan can only face it.

Walking forward slowly, Ye Guan heard a footstep that kept following him gently. He ignored it and just walked forward so quietly.

In front of Zhu'an City

The door was closed tightly. The soldiers moved quickly, and the order had just been issued, and now the soldiers had already started preparing. On the wide streets of Zhu'an City, except for the sergeants that appeared from time to time, there were only dilapidated streets.

The fireballs fell across the sky last night, almost igniting the entire Zhu'an City. After a night of fighting, the current Zhu'an City was dilapidated and there was almost no intact building. Wherever you saw it, it was a mess, and the charred burned by the flames filled the entire city. The air was filled with a sense of dilapidation, which looked like Ye Guan's mood now.

Walking forward slowly, a few days ago, Zhu'an City might still be filled with laughter and joy, crowded with flowers, and the people of Zhu'an City are living their own lives, pursuing what they want to pursue, protecting what they want to protect, and living and working in peace and contentment.

A few days later, the originally prosperous city was already in ruins, and none of the people in the city were spared and were all harmed by Tianqing City. Ye Guan stood quietly at the largest intersection in Zhu'an City, with buildings burned by flames on both sides, and now they are ruins.

He closed his eyes and imagined what happened in this place before, and a deep sadness arose in his heart.

The footsteps behind him also stopped, not far behind Ye Guan, and did not step forward or speak.

"Do you know what I'm going to do? Don't follow me, go back with the army." Ye Guan sighed a long time ago, and looked back at him. Not far behind him, Xu Bao was wearing a guard costume and stood quietly. When he heard Ye Guan's words, Xu Bao grinned at Ye Guan.

"I am the general leader. Wherever you go, where I go." Xu Bao laughed softly.

"Go back." Ye Guan whispered: "You can't help what I want to do, and you can only die."

"This time I came out, my subordinates didn't plan to go back alive." Xu Bao still smiled and replied, "I did the thing to betray the little prince. The East Prince's Mansion can't go back. After arriving at the enclave, I betrayed the North Prince's Mansion, and I can't go back to my hometown."

"If you can't go back, your family members in the Beiwang Mansion may die." Ye Guan looked at Xu Bao quietly: "When you go back, you will die, but you can protect them. Isn't this the meaning of being alive?"

When Xu Bao heard this, he smiled and shook his head, saying, "You don't have to say that my family is afraid they have died long ago. So far, I have not had any news about them for four years. Every time I ask people from the Northern Palace, they will only be perfunctory. Not only me, but also the relatives of all the people lurking in the Eastern Palace, may end up like this."

Ye Guan was silent and didn't say anything. He had expected such a result.

When the Northern Prince's Mansion arranged for Xu Bao to plot against Huang Yuanwu, he must have planned to give up his pawn. How could his family survive if he was abandoned? Since Xu Bao was chosen as a detailed work of the Northern Prince's Mansion, his fate has been destined.

He looked at Xu Bao, and after a moment, he sighed deeply and said, "Okay, follow you, but the road ahead is long, there will be a lot of things to do, and I won't have time to take care of you."

"Don't worry, the general manager, I won't cause you any trouble." Xu Bao smiled at Ye Guan and saluted respectfully.

Ye Guan nodded gently and said, "Go and bring two horses and we will leave the city."

"Ode to the Lord!"

Xu Bao responded, turned around to the camp to pick up the horses. Ye Guan sighed deeply and walked to the gate of Zhu'an City.

At this moment, the city gate had been opened, and the soldiers on both sides were ready to set off. Seeing Ye Guan saluting one after another, Ye Guan nodded slightly, walked out the door, and turned back to see the city head of Zhu'an City.

Three big words of vicissitudes are written on the city plaque. I don’t know how many storms I have experienced.

After a moment, Xu Bao took the war horse, and the two of them turned over and headed straight for Changhui City.
