The cold wind blowing in from the mountain pass was whistling mixed with ice and snow debris. Ye Tianzhan flicked his wrist before entering the tent, and the curtain that he randomly swept up was raised high, and he slammed it up, whipping the The cold wind also dissipated.
The hot air in the military tent was blowing towards your face, Ye Tianzhan had a gloomy expression on his face, but the person behind him didn't keep quiet because of his expression: "Your Highness, this is the only way, it's better to make a decision sooner, otherwise it will be troublesome. "
Ye Tianzhan glanced at the guards who were waiting in the tent, and said, "Go out."
The two guards knew that he and Gong Sicheng had an important matter to discuss, they didn't dare to delay, they held their breath and quietly retreated.
Ye Tianzhan put down the whip, untied the cloak and threw it aside, revealing the handsome clothes he was wearing inside. The black armor iron suit lined his slender figure, but it was elegant, and there was an innate leisurely nobility in it, but the black color made those gentle eyes a little darker. He put his hands on the long case and pondered for a moment, and when he turned his head, his handsome face was as pale as jade, and the haze just now had disappeared.
"Mr. Gong," he said in a pleasant and gentle tone, "You want me to withdraw immediately. If the 100,000 troops in Nangong Jing run out of ammunition and food and then lose their reinforcements, they will all be wiped out. This consequence, you should compare I thought of it earlier."
Gong Sicheng didn't wear armor, and the clean robe under the cloak showed his identity as an aide, while the circle of velvety mink fur and the hard-to-find worsted fabric on the robe made him look different from other aides. Different, he nodded: "That's true, but if you don't keep this arm, the Chinese army is in danger, and now you can only abandon the pawns to protect the chariot. At this time, the Chinese army can still advance and retreat freely, but once Conan Xu puts the five-element yin-yang formation 'Yang Dun The third game's arrangement is completed, and we are really stuck in it. The West Road should still be outside the Qimen Pass, Li Bu has a good way of using troops, no matter how powerful King Ling is, it is impossible to break through the Qimen Pass in three to five days."
Hearing Li Bu's name, Ye Tianzhan narrowed his clear eyes slightly: "It's an unforgivable crime to abandon the light and turn to the dark. Could it be that Mr. Gong has nothing to do with Conan Xu's escape from the sun?"
Gong Sicheng sighed: "Conanxu is the best talent in Jiangdong. Looking at the world, I am afraid that only Zuo Yuansun of Nanling can compete with him. I am not very sure. And the most important thing is the food. This time the food is taken away. The robbery was really unexpected.”
Ye Tianzhan frowned: "It's not good for the Ministry of War to send anyone, but Wei Qian. I have already ordered this person not to be used. Who appointed him as the envoy of the right capital of the three armies?"
Gong Sicheng said: "Now King Xi is in charge of supervising transportation, and he should be in charge of all personnel."
Ye Tianzhan held a cup of tea casually, and said, "This is to show favor to the Wei family."
Gong Sicheng smiled: "It's better to say that it's for His Highness to see. That seat is not for King Xi's turn, and everyone knows that. Before this expedition, King Xi was standing on our side, and the Jingji Wei in his hand was quite Some weight."
Ye Tianzhan sipped the fragrant tea slowly, and the thin cloud cup was turning between his fingers. He seemed to have tasted the fragrance of the tea, and Fang said: "Sir, don't underestimate Brother Wuhuang, he has always acted prudently and carefully." , this time I was a little surprised at Chaoshang."
Gong Sicheng said: "King Xi's status is limited, so he can't allow him to have too many thoughts. The real thing to guard against is King Ling, especially the emperor. There seems to be some worrisome omens. The emperor has let Ling Wang intervene. Hubu, this is very intriguing. If it weren’t for our strict defense, the Hubu would have been in chaos. After careful consideration of the matter of King Ming years ago, it is clear that it is inextricably related to Lingwang’s mansion. The most intriguing thing is Princess Qingping. Marrying into Prince Ling's mansion as the interim Xiuyi, the emperor clearly put Feng's family on King Ling's side, and then conferred the title of Concubine Lian..."
Ye Tianzhan listened intently at first, but suddenly his eyes sparkled, and his fingers holding the teacup tightened imperceptibly. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Yanxi Palace.
In the late spring and early summer of last year, Qing Chen was still the concubine of Yanxi Palace. One day in Yanxi Palace, he saw Qing Chen standing on the wide and wide steps in front of him, looking up into the distance alone.
It was dusk, the golden crow was about to fall, and the pale moon was rising. The half of the sky behind the hall was filled with orange-like clouds, in which golden, red, and purple were intertwined, flowing slowly under the growing sky. The green eaves and golden tiles, Qionglou Feige are dyed all the way to the white jade-like steps, and there is also a vague stream of light on people's skirts.
Qing Chen was just a faint figure standing in front of the tall palace. The warm wind rippling through the willow branches lifted up her moon-white palace attire, and the silhouette of the flying skirt seemed to be floating and uncertain. I can't help but look at her indifferent appearance, making people feel that if she doesn't pay attention, she will disappear.
She didn't seem to notice that someone had entered Yanxi Palace, she just looked up at the strange scene in the other half of the sky. The dense clouds behind him are like fire, and the pale moon is rising in front of us, and the gorgeous cloud light gradually enters the West Mountain, giving way to the pure color in the sky, a piece of deep green ink. The half-string crescent moon hangs in the sky, like a very thin piece of brittle jade, with a slightly pale light.
Qing Chen looked at Danyue in a trance, with a distant expression, while Ye Tianzhan stood under the dark blue sky and looked at her neither far nor near. He seemed to be looking for something all the time, he looked up, and at this moment he knew what it was, it was so close. There was always some hollowness in my heart that was suddenly filled with no gaps, just like the fading twilight clouds fell in my heart, a moment of warmth and tranquility.
He didn't disturb her, and took his time to pace slowly, until Qing Chen looked back inadvertently, was a little surprised when he saw him, and then smiled faintly.
But Ye Tianzhan stopped in his tracks, that smile seemed to have been seen in a distant place, even though it was right in front of him now, it was still a haze of smoke across the night.
He nodded her with the jade flute in his hand: "It seems that you are the only one left in the huge Yanxi Palace."
Qing Chen smiled and raised his head: "Isn't there still you?"
Ye Tianzhan climbed up the steps, and the lights of Yanxi Palace were lit up one after another, outlining the solemn palace deep in the light, spreading out layer by layer. The evening wind blew her hair lightly, and it also made his water-colored gown rise and fall. When he was gossiping, he didn't ignore the vague melancholy in Qing Chen's eyes. No matter when they met, her eyes were the first to flash What is always there is such an emotion, which disappears in an instant behind the clear water-like eyes, but it pulls out the deep and shallow tenderness in his heart.
He didn't want to ask, he just felt that there was still time to turn around, until that day when the emperor's capital was covered with pink and pink powder, and even Huailuan County could feel the unsparing joy, and he stepped into the festooned palace Prince Ling's mansion saw the bright red wedding dress on her body. The plain white moon that I was used to seeing suddenly turned into such a dazzling red, just like the color of blood in the setting sun on the western mountain, but her smile was no longer like the cool moonlight in the mid-air, like the sky and water shadows blooming in the sky. The extremely high sky covered the sky and covered him.
In the drizzle in front of the leisurely jade lake, he lost his life once he lost his body.
"Your Highness, Your Highness?" Gong Sicheng had to intensify his voice.
Ye Tianzhan raised his head abruptly, the cloud lamp in his hand shook, and the amber tea was slightly cool, splashing a few drops: "What did you just say?"
Gong Sicheng sighed secretly, his eyes were full of clarity: "Nangong Jing is from Lingwang's mansion, now is the opportunity, he is like Lingwang's right-hand man, so he cannot stay."
Ye Tianzhan took a deep breath and let go of the cup of herbal tea. He took another cup, and still poured himself a drink, his demeanor was undisturbed, and there was no emotion in his eyes. He didn't follow Gong Sicheng's words, but his tone was slightly aggravated: "Who is the opponent is the second priority. I am more worried about chaos from the inside. Let alone the song and dance workshop last time, look at the accounts of the Ministry of Finance. What is involved? I have reminded my uncle that he must be restrained when he employs people. Besides, in the Wei family, there has long been a cowardly concubine. Yan pretends to be smart."
Gong Sicheng said: "I don't quite agree with the matter of marrying the Wei family, but if Your Highness hadn't contradicted the empress like last time, it wouldn't be difficult to object this time."
Ye Tianzhan knew that this referred to the dispute between him and Empress Yin when he proposed to marry Qing Chen. Later, it was Gong Sicheng who persuaded him, and Empress Yin finally agreed, but the matter was still fruitless in the end. He straightened the sleeves on his wrists: "Mr. has been with the Yin family for decades. Speaking of which, both the mother and uncle should call you teacher. The mother is still willing to listen to you. This time I also know that I can't say anything else. So there is no objection." He spoke lightly, taking away the ever-changing look in his eyes.
Obviously, Gong Sicheng and Ye Tianzhan didn't need too much politeness, and he didn't hesitate to say anything. He just said: "To speak disrespectfully, the empress has a very strong temper. If your highness has something to do in the future, it's better to be tactful."
Ye Tianzhan smiled: "Sir, I will carefully ponder over what you say. I just talked about the withdrawal of troops. Although Nan Gongjing is a rare general, he will never be used by me, and I don't want to keep him. But he led Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have parents, wives and children. Once they are buried in northern Xinjiang, the 100,000 families of our dynasty will be mourned. Mothers will mourn their sons, wives will cry for their husbands, and children will lose their fathers. Mourning and destroying the family relationship? Wouldn’t it be inhumane for me to draw my salary from the bottom of the pot at this time? Furthermore, the reason why Nangong Jing was trapped in the Great Wild Valley was to keep the Chinese army safe. If he hadn’t acted decisively and self-destructed, the entire army would inevitably have to use Conan Xu’s trick to lure the enemy If I ignore it, it is unrighteous." He spoke unhurriedly, but his tone was very firm: "Mr. Gong, this matter must be done, but it must be done. I, Ye Tianzhan, don't bother to use such means. .”
Gong Sicheng originally thought that Ye Tianzhan didn't listen to what he said before, but who knew that he had already thought it through when he said it, "Your Highness, you still don't..." Halfway through speaking, he suddenly sighed: "Your Highness said today After saying these words, I don’t know whether it’s joy or sorrow!”
The gentleness in Ye Tianzhan's eyes was also slightly deep: "I don't want to do this, and I have another concern, that is Xia Bufeng and Shi Zhonghou. These generals of the Shenyu Army are the same as Nangong Jing, and they follow King Ling. People who are born and die will definitely not see Nangong competing to sit in a deadlock. If you abandon the vanguard and retreat at this time, it will be difficult to guarantee the morale of the army."
Gong Sicheng said: "Your Highness knows that they are all members of King Ling, so why did you use them in the first place?"
Ye Tianzhan smiled lightly and said: "The army is looking for good generals. If you can't even tolerate these few people, let alone the world? At least they don't miss the overall situation, and they are better than Wei Qian. Pass on my military order and order Shi Zhonghou to lead lightly armored soldiers to pass." Looking for the way at Ridge, we will try to rendezvous with Nangong Jing within two days, and then we will discuss how to deal with Conan Xu."
Gong Sicheng bowed his hands and quit. The snow stopped, but the wind did not stop, blowing people's beard and hair. A burst of hail and ice whizzed by in the wind, and the mountains with no way to know the way were almost monotonously white under the heavy snow. After watching for a long time, he felt irritable. He couldn't help but sighed slowly. The words that can be finished can't help but come to my mind again, King Zhan, it's still not cruel enough!
