Success?
At this moment, these two words appeared in the minds of the three of them. The emotions in their hearts were agitated and difficult to calm down.
Feng Jin and Qiguan Rang's performance was considered calm and restrained. They did not have too obvious expressions. Xu Ke stood up excitedly.
His voice trembled slightly because of his agitation.
"Are you sure that the head on the city gate belongs to the bandit leader of the Tsing Yi army?"
The imperial guard who reported the news cupped his fist and said, "I specially disguised myself as an ordinary citizen and went to the west city gate of Xiangyang district to investigate. I found that the city gate was already open. The guards on the city gate were not from the Tsing Yi army but the personal guards of district magistrate Liu. I was afraid that it was a trap. I wandered around and asked the citizens entering and exiting the city. The head is indeed the bandit leader's. "
Upon hearing the news, Xu Ke heaved a long sigh of relief. The exhaustion from worrying for a whole night came over him.
His vision suddenly darkened. He staggered backward involuntarily and almost lost his footing.
Fortunately, Qiguan Rang was by his side. He extended his hand and supported him. Only then did he avoid the miserable state of being intimately in contact with the ground.
Feng Jin said to Luo Yue who specially rushed over, "Chief Luo, please give the order to break camp. Langjun has just taken over Xiangyang district. I'm afraid the manpower at hand won't be able to control the situation. To prevent the remnants of the Tsing Yi army from escaping and calling for reinforcements, Chief Luo, please quickly bring people to support. "
Luo Yue said, "This is what I should do. Master Huaiyu, you don't have to do this."
Knowing that Jiang Pengji had successfully taken over Xiangyang district, the citizens who followed were emotional. Many of them put their palms together and sincerely thanked the gods. Taking over Xiangyang district meant that they would soon have a place to settle down. Perhaps they could take root here from then on. Along the way, Jiang Pengji did not let the people suffer much. However, compared to a wandering life, they preferred a stable and comfortable environment.
Packing their luggage, the people followed the imperial guards and slowly approached Xiangyang district.
Feng Jin slightly tidied up his appearance to make himself look clean and refreshed. Then he climbed into the horse carriage where Wei Jingxian was resting after giving birth.
Among the people, Wei Jingxian and her daughter probably had the best days.
"I'll lean against and rest for a while …"
There was only his wife and daughter in the carriage. Feng Jin was really exhausted. He leaned against the carriage lazily.
He bent one knee and curled the other to reduce the space he occupied. His eyelids were so heavy as if they were filled with lead.
Xu Ke and Qiguan Rang narrowed their eyes slightly. Xu Ke and Qiguan Rang could only force themselves to stay awake and ride.
There would be no harm without comparison.
Under the careful care of the maidservants, Wei Jingxian's confinement was not bad, and her body was recovering well.
She leaned against the table in high spirits and sat up. "Are we going to enter the city?"
Before she fell asleep last night, she vaguely heard news that Jiang Pengji was going to bring people to attack Xiangyang district at night.
If Jiang Pengji failed, her husband would not have such a relieved expression.
The only possibility was that Jiang Pengji had won. She had led her men to conquer Xiangyang district!
Wei Jingxian was smart and quick-witted. She didn't purposely ask for information and deduced the information she wanted from the details.
"Mm." Feng Jin narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly. His breathing gradually stabilized.
Wei Jingxian saw that his body was shaking along with the jolting of the carriage, so he could not sleep well. Her heart softened. She quietly put Changsheng, who was sleeping soundly, on the bed, then stretched out her hand to support Feng Jin's pillow. Feng Jin sensed movement and opened his eyes halfway. Seeing that it was his wife, he closed his eyes again and rubbed his head. He found a comfortable position and fell into a deep sleep not long after.
The carriage was specially made by the Liu residence. The shock absorption system was very good. Sleeping in the carriage did not feel much jolting.
Qiguan Rang rode on the horse. He looked left and right but did not see Feng Jin. He felt depressed and kept fanning himself.
"Sigh … He has a lovely wife and daughter. Rang also has one, but the treatment is so different."
Feng Jin sneakily went to sleep. He had to keep his heavy eyelids open and resist sleepiness. Thinking about it made him feel bitter.
Xu Ke turned his head and looked at the stable carriage behind him. He said bitterly, "I also have a wife at home."
However, wasn't he the same as Qiguan Rang? He was not a single dog, but he was better than a single dog.
The two men looked at each other and sighed. Then they looked away tacitly.
At such a time, they were still showing off their affection. They felt that they had suffered a great deal of damage.
Because they were carrying nearly 20,000 people in Shangjing, the whole procession naturally moved at a slow pace.
When the sun rose high in the sky, they saw the Xiangyang district lying dormant on the horizon.
Seeing the city, the two of them had the same feeling in their hearts.
The wind and clouds of this life would rise from here!
"Jia —"
On the other side, Jiang Pengji looked at the sun and estimated that it was almost time.
Thus, she asked someone to fetch a bucket of water to wash away the blood stains on her body. She changed into a clean set of clothes.
If it was not for the lingering smell of blood around her, no matter who saw her, they would praise her as a "handsome young man."
"Let's go and welcome Xiaoyu and the rest outside the city. I estimated the time. They should be here soon." Jiang Pengji said cheerfully to Meng Hun, who had been busy all night and had dark circles under his eyes. "When they arrive, there will be people to share the burden."
Meng Hun was originally dispirited, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he immediately perked up and subconsciously straightened his back.
She waited for a quarter of an hour outside the west city with about 20 troops. Qiguan Rang and Xu Ke's figures appeared in her sight.
Both of them looked tired. They probably hadn't slept the whole night.
Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on her face. Her eyes flickered and she couldn't help but feel excited. She urged her horse forward.
"You're finally here!"
Qiguan Rang and Xu Ke pulled the reins tightly, dismounted and bowed to her.
"My lord!"
Jiang Pengji helped them up and smiled. "No need to be so courteous. It's been hard on you. You're tired from the journey. Go into the city and rest for a while. "
Qiguan Rang looked serious. "Rang, it's no big deal. It's just a little hard work, not worth mentioning. My lord has just taken over the Xiangyang district. The people's hearts are still unsettled. There are still many unresolved matters. To prevent any accidents, it's better to stabilize the situation and make arrangements for the people who follow my lord. "
Xu Ke thought so too. Although he was really sleepy now, business was more important.
The viewers in the streaming room who watched the whole process were delighted.
The two strategists had walked the longest path. It was definitely their lord's trick!
There were even some viewers who condemned her righteously.
Qu 'er: "# laughtercry. Streamer, doesn't your conscience hurt by squeezing two trembling subordinates?"
Feather Dang Diao Qingtian: "The streamer replied with a cold face. Of course it doesn't hurt. Squeezing employees is the basic skill of every boss. "
Go to the toilet with finger: "Tsk tsk, I've been following the streamer's streaming room for three to four years. I've never seen her have that kind of thing."
Jiang Pengji ignored the bullet screen. Of course her conscience wouldn't hurt.
"Eh, where's Huaiyu?"
She glanced around and didn't see Feng Jin.
Qiguan Rang pointed at the carriage behind him with his feather fan.
Jiang Pengji glanced at the carriage and sighed with emotion. "It's good to have a wife who loves me."
The two married men in front of her felt their knees hurt.
My lord, your words hurt!
