Zhao yuelou is not a famous restaurant in the capital, but it is on the way from Tiefu to the main gate of the capital.

At zhaoyuelou, tiekui got off his horse and said to Asao, "it's noon. After dinner, I'll go back to the barracks."

A Shao nods: "OK."

When entering the box, there was no one else in the room. But when the dish is finished, the Falcon comes out of the dark door.

Tie Kui saw a Shao draw out a knife, hurriedly said: "my own people." I didn't tell ashow that I didn't trust him, but the less people knew about it, the better.

In recent years, tiekui has not disclosed his identity and contacts with ashow. But as tiekui's confidant, I didn't find out that it was impossible. But his family's lives are all saved by tiekui. Even if he has doubts, he never asks.

Hearing this, a Shao put the knife back into the tip of the knife and said in a low voice, "master, I'll go outside to take care of the wind."

"No." If you go out to take care of the wind, it will arouse suspicion. And since tiekui can come out of the dark door, it shows that Zhao yuelou is their territory. In this way, there is no need to control the wind.

Zhao yuelou has been in operation in the capital for more than 30 years, and the owner of the restaurant was a merchant dealer of the emperor. Later, the banker joined Yan matchless and sent his daughter to the imperial palace as a concubine. I don't know. The dealer even joined the Ming king.

Tiekui asked the Falcon who sat down, "what's so urgent?" If it were not for an emergency, I would not have met him at this juncture.

The Falcon said calmly, "Gao Dongnan is going to transport tung oil to the Imperial Palace and burn it all." If you only burn one or two palaces, you don't need so much tung oil.

Tiekui was not surprised: "it would rather be destroyed than left to the enemy, which is the unique style of Yan."

"It's a pity if the palace is burned down." I don't know how much manpower, material and financial resources it will take to build this palace. If reconstruction, a short time is impossible.

Tiekui understood as soon as he listened to the words and asked, "do you mean to ask me to stop Gao Dongnan?"

Tiekui nodded.

Seeing that tie Kui didn't refuse, a Shao fell into deep thought and was in a hurry: "master, it's too dangerous. Yan Wushuang doesn't trust you all the time. He lets a lot of people spy on you. If the general has any movement, he will surely find out. " Once found, the master will surely die.

The Falcon did not speak, but looked at tiekui.

After a while, tiekui asked, "is that what you mean, or do you mean by the prince and the princess?" For tiekui, it's very important.

The Falcon said, "the princess has made an order. You can't force your uncle to do something he doesn't want to do."

Hearing the three words of uncle, a Shao stared. He seems to know a wonderful thing.

Tiekui was relieved. Yuxi didn't ask him to die because of a palace.

"Where is the Lord now? When will it arrive? " This is very important. Only when Yunqing arrives with the army will he start. Otherwise, he would be in danger. No matter how important the palace is, it's not as important as his life.

"According to my calculation, the army will not arrive until noon tomorrow at the earliest," tiekui said After a pause, tiekui said, "I'm afraid Gao Dongnan will burn the palace at night."

Tiekui shook his head and said, "don't worry about it. Gao Dongnan won't order the imperial palace to be burned before the last moment." Burning the imperial palace will surely be recorded in history. No one is willing to leave a bad reputation in history books unless there is no way.

I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. But the Falcon didn't say that when he looked at tie Kui. Tiekui is different from other people. He dare not force: "once Gao Dongnan orders to burn the palace, we will start. Uncle, do you think it's ok? "

"Yes." When it comes to the point of burning down the Imperial Palace, it means that the capital is about to be destroyed. Although everyone knows that the capital can't be defended, Gao Dongnan will surely be able to defend it for some time now that he has made up his mind to die.

After a pause, tiekui asked, "how is Zhan now?" He is most concerned about this son.

Falcon has not received any news about Ning Zhan recently: "your young master is in the palace, and the princess will take good care of him." Ning Zhan is the cousin of the princess, and tie Kui is working for him. There is no one who doesn't take good care of him.

At this time, Yan Kai, the follower, said outside, "general GUI has sent for you to go back."

Tiekui asked quietly, "are the rebels coming?" If it wasn't for the rebels, Gao would not have rushed him back.

Yan Kai walked into the house, and the Falcon was no longer there. "I don't know. The visitor didn't say it." If not for the arrival of the rebels, it must have something to do with it.

Looking at a table that didn't move very much, tiekui said to ashow, "pack and take it back." Although the food in zhaoyuelou is not as expensive as that in wangyuelou, it is not cheap either.

Seeing Gao Dongnan, tiekui asked anxiously, "general, what's the matter? Did the rebels come? "

Gao Dongnan said with a solemn face: "the rebels have been fifty miles away." He didn't expect the rebels to come so soon.

Tiekui was secretly happy, but he still showed a look of horror on his face: "so fast? Doesn't it mean that you have to arrive at noon tomorrow at the earliest? "

"They were marching last night, too." That is to say, the northwest army is on its way day and night without rest. Before Baoding, I had a rest for three days. Now, I have been on the road day and night. Gao Dongnan can't figure out the number of Yunqing's roads.

GUI Sanliang's face changed a lot and said, "that doesn't mean he will arrive tonight?" According to the speed of the northwest army, it's enough to get out of the city at night.

Gao Dongnan nodded with an ugly face. Where the northwest army is fighting at this speed, it is simply on its way.

Thinking of it, Gao Dongnan is desperate. He thought he could keep it for a month or two. But now, I'm afraid I can't keep it for half a month.

In fact, many people have doubts about Yunqing's behavior. Feng zhiao asked Feng Dajun, "Dad, the LORD was resting in Baoding for many days, and now he is on his way day and night. It's not right." I always think there is something strange here.

Feng Dajun said with a smile, "what do you want me to do? What are so many questions?"

"Dad, you don't know?" He thought fengdajun knew it! I didn't know for a long time.

"The Lord didn't tell me. It must have been a big deal." After that, Feng Dajun looked at Feng zhiao and said, "in the future, you should listen more, see more and think more, but you can't ask more." What you want to know will tell you naturally, and what you don't want to know can't be asked more. If you ask too many questions about whether it's a small thing to be despised, you're afraid to think that you have a big heart.

Feng zhiao nodded, "I know that."

Just as he was saying this, he saw Lu Bai come and say, "general Feng, please come to me." The army is in front, they are in the back. It's mainly that they ride horses at a relatively fast speed.

At the end of the year, Qianfeng camp was outside the capital. After a few hours' rest, we began to attack the city at dawn, and the attack was very fierce.

When GUI Sanliang got the news, he couldn't help swearing: "this is really a group of lunatics?" Day and night to keep on going, and then the war, do not have to rest.

Tiekui said with a straight face: "they have five hundred and fifty thousand people and can take turns to attack the city." Some attacked the city, some rested. However, they have few people, and their weapons and equipment are inferior to others. If they don't rely on the strong walls, they will lose their armor and discard their armor at most for three days.

Gao Dongnan was about to speak when he saw his entourage coming and whispering in his ear.

Gao Dongnan frowned, nodded, and then went down the wall.

After a quarter of an hour, Gao Dongnan's entourage went up to the tower and said to tiekui, "general tiekui, I need to find you."

Tiekui's heart thumped, but his face didn't show half a minute. He nodded, "OK."

Down the wall, tiekui entered the camp.

Gao Dongnan stared at tie Kui with a very complicated expression: "why did you go to Zhao yuelou on the way back from home yesterday?"

Tiekui guessed it was for this: "general, I told you about it yesterday." Yesterday he said casually that he wanted to have a good meal before the war. At that time, Gao Dongnan didn't think much, but now he has to think much.

Gao Dongnan looked at the table gently and said, "is that right? Then why do you eat with your sweetheart? " Without waiting for tiekui to open his mouth, Gao Dongnan sneers, "eating is fake, meeting people is true, right?"

If you are a normal person, you may think your legs are already soft when you hear this, but tie Kui's psychological quality is very strong. Not only did he not panic, but he smiled sarcastically: "General Gao, there is no excuse to add guilt. If you want to kill me, you can do it directly. You don't need to fix some of them. "

Gao Dongnan didn't argue with tie Kui about it: "I misunderstood you or you had a different idea. I will know soon." If tiekui had been a member of the Ming Dynasty for a long time, he would not have been able to tell the truth by torture. Even if the Emperor didn't get hold of him, he would be even more impossible. However, the attendant may not have such a psychological quality.

Tiekui said coldly, "these people are most willing to bend to fight for success. Instead of waiting for their confession, they would not treat me now."

Gao Dongnan stood up and said, "follow me." Since tiekui is not satisfied, let him be convinced.

He was beaten all over without a piece of good meat, and ashow didn't spit a word out. But when he saw his wife and children, ashow's face changed: "if you have anything to do with me, don't touch them."

Bai cayra, the spy chief who stayed to be responsible for the intelligence of the capital, stood in front of a Shao and said, "you should tell me what you know. I will not only spare them, but also you and I will let them go."

Ah Shao bit his teeth and said, "what do you want me to say? I said everything I knew. " He confessed tiekui's corruption and bribery. But these are not what Cayratia needs.

Brand a piece of red tiekui on a Shao, and Cayratia says with a sneer, "say not?"

A Shao's daughter-in-law has never seen such a posture, so she has not fainted. After a long time, she cried, "the head of the family, they want to know what, you tell them." It's very important to keep my family's life. As for tiekui, I can't care so much.

A Shao is still that sentence. He said everything he knew. I don't know. He doesn't want to make things up.

Cayratia pointed the arrow at the chest of his eldest son and said, "if you don't say it again, I will kill him with one arrow."

"Ah Shao's daughter-in-law knelt on the ground and said:" the head of the family, you know what to say Although tiekui is not thin to their family, it can't be compared with his son.

A shaohen can't eat Cayratia, but he can only compromise for his son: "what do you want me to say, I will say."

This words just fall, Cayratia's sword stabbed into the child's chest. After the child fell to the ground, Cayratia's sword pointed to the chest of the eldest daughter of a Shao“
