The East China Sea battle report brought news that shocked the ruling and opposition parties.
In Jiashen in May, Japanese pirates in the East China Sea pretended to be paying tribute and raided Henghai County, an important town in Langzhou.
The navy of the Celestial Dynasty was unprepared, rushed to the battle, and suffered a disastrous defeat. Seventy-five warships were wiped out, and none of them returned. Zonggan, the envoy of Henghai County, died on the spot.
Thirty miles of high platform, eight thousand miles of beacon fire, flying to report to the imperial capital. The deputy envoy Nie Ji retreated to the city, and led the Henghai soldiers to fight fiercely with the Japanese bandits for days.
More than 200 warships of Japanese pirates gathered at sea and attacked the city day and night.
Three days later, corpses floated thousands of miles above the sea, and rivers of blood flowed beneath the city.
Xu Shan, a bandit along the coast of Langzhou, and others colluded with Japanese pirates, cooperating inside and outside, and lured wolves into the house.
Dinghai, Henghai City was broken.
Nie Ji and twelve soldiers under his command defended to the end, and then killed more than 800 enemies, and committed suicide on Guanhai Terrace.
Japanese pirates entered the city to slaughter the common people, robbed property, kidnapped hundreds of women in the city, and then set fire to the whole city.
Henghai is an important town in the East China Sea. Once the city was destroyed, the hinterland of Langzhou was exposed. The neighboring states and counties were unable to cope and were all invaded.
From here, the Japanese pirates went straight to Langzhou, attacked Wenzhou, and plundered along the coast of the East China Sea.
There are even rogue bandits such as Xu Shan, who were originally important generals of the Marquis of Dongyue. Eight banner boats, slaughtered, looted, burned and killed, with arrogance.
In just a few days, five cities in the East China Sea were looted, Japanese pirates were brutal and tyrannical, and more than 30,000 people were killed.
The raging sea and turbulent waves swept in, and the first-tier cities and counties along the coast of the Celestial Dynasty turned into a hell on earth.
The people in the East China Sea rose up to resist, and retreated to Aoshan under the leadership of Langzhou Inspector Pang Yuan, desperately defending the country and stopping the Japanese pirates, but they were weak and were urgently waiting for reinforcements from the imperial capital.
When the battle report was sent to the imperial capital, it immediately caused an uproar.
Over the years, the Japanese pirates have suffered a lot, but such rampant invasion is rare.
It is tolerable, what is unbearable!
Above the court, civil servants and military generals were filled with righteous indignation, and they all felt that the country was humiliated and humiliated, and that nothing could be done without a war.
All of them were of one mind and had no objection, King Li even went out to ask for a fight, vowing to destroy the pirates.
The next day, under the imperial decree.
Zongqian, the envoy of Henghai County, was posthumously named General Jingyi, Deputy Envoy Nie Ji, and the twelve generals.
Pang Yuan, the patrol envoy of Langzhou, was the general of Zhendong, commanding the military affairs of the four states in the East China Sea.
The 100,000 sailors from Pingjiang Road in Zhechongfu rushed to Langzhou within three days to cooperate with the three heavenly armies of Wenzhou, Xianzhou, and Jingzhou to fight against Japanese pirates.
Granted the Xuanlong Talisman and the Tianzi Sword to King Zhan, and went to Langzhou to supervise the battle as Prince Jiuzhang.
It's not King Li, but King Zhan. The handsome and suave King Zhan, the elegant and noble King Zhan, the only King Zhan who can still threaten the throne.
The trip to the East China Sea seems to be a road of no return in the eyes of everyone.
However, two days later, the imperial edict was issued again.
The queen's daughter was given the name Yuanyu, named Princess Lanyang, and bestowed three thousand in the city.
Yuan Xiu, the son of King Zhan, was granted the title of Prince of Changling County, and he was given five thousand in the city. He lived and studied in Dazheng Palace, and was educated by the queen himself.
In the end, the imperial decree of the Jin Dynasty to confer the son of Prince Zhan was nothing more than a battle report from the East China Sea, shocking both inside and outside.
In Hanguang Palace, there are bright pools of spring water, layers of wisteria flowers in full bloom, like butterflies dancing in a row, hanging jade exquisite, deep and shallow purple day by day, quiet and light fragrance.
In front of the Jiuqu corridor, the green vines are deep green, and the flower vines hang down, covering a piece of thick shade. Qing Chen is leaning on the bamboo couch in front of the corridor, holding a hosta in his hand, under the faint light and shadow, his eyes are quiet and far away.
Plain hands are like jade, and white jade gels fat.
Strands of thin gold are embedded in the soft white jade, carved into an elegant orchid, with neat branches and leaves, just covering the traces of the fracture, the conception is exquisite and seamless.
More than three months ago, when she woke up from a few days of drowsiness, Ye Tianzhan had gone to the East China Sea, and only this hosta was placed next to her pillow in a wooden box carved with orchids.
She lightly stroked the exquisite inlay on the jade hairpin, and there was no flaw in the tentacles. The crack was repaired so completely under the delicate gold leaf, and it firmly connected the broken ends. The ingenious embellishment made this ordinary hairpin Look different.
After so long, she was still too weak to leave the bed, but she could hear from him every day.
At the end of May, the Langzhou navy defeated the Japanese army in the coastal waters of Xiaoshikou, destroyed 28 enemy warships, wiped out more than 5,000 enemies, and recovered Henghai.
After the victory in the first battle, the navy of the Celestial Dynasty took a rest. At midnight, under the leadership of several old local fishermen, a hundred warships and 40,000 elite soldiers raided Langgang Island, smashed the bandit Xu Shan's lair, and captured Xu Shan alive. . Three days later, they used the strategy of luring the enemy to lure another bandit force to the sea and wiped it out.
King Zhan ordered Xu Shan and more than 30 Japanese bandits to be beheaded for public display, and the enemy's blood was sacrificed to Guan Haitai to pay homage to Nie Ji and other loyal soldiers.
The people of Langzhou hated Xu Shan and others deeply, and everyone praised them with their foreheads and hands. Although Xu Shan died, public outrage could not be appeased. His body was finally hacked into pieces by the people and thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
At the beginning of June, Japanese pirates attacked Aoshanwei again. The navy of the Celestial Dynasty attacked head-on, severely injuring the Japanese pirates, beheading nearly ten thousand enemies, and greatly boosting the morale of the army and the people.
King Zhan sent his army to pursue the victory. With the cooperation of land cavalry, 60,000 elite soldiers besieged Cangnan County, which was occupied by Japanese pirates. After two days of bloody battle, the Japanese pirates were defeated and fled the city.
Afterwards, the Heavenly Army won nine victories in Langzhou, annihilating the enemies who invaded Langzhou, and splitting their attacks, successively recapturing Chengshan, Yueqing, Lintai and other counties occupied by Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates were forced to retreat to the sea.
However, the war did not end here. Emperor Hao once again sent another 100,000 troops to the East China Sea, and the supplies of food and grass were continuously transported from Bianshui and Lianshui to Langzhou.
King Zhan has sufficient troops and has no worries about the future. The army is ready to go, ready to counter-defense and attack the East China Sea, and completely eliminate the coastal pirates.
The coast of the East China Sea was a battlefield with thousands of miles of waves and fierce artillery fire. Before he had time to say a word to her, he called for the battle and went away from the imperial capital.
How many days have passed, but the tearing gaze from that day is still in front of my eyes, "I promise you."
This time, she won the bet.
The bargaining chip is her life and his heart.
He finally gave her that precious promise, a promise to settle the country.
Many years ago, he whispered to each other in the Ningcui Pavilion, and since then, the love for this life has been destined. He gave her everything she wanted, and she gave him nothing in return.
I thought he owed her at first, but now I realize that what she owes him will never be repaid.
Whoever you love, who you owe, maybe if you continue to love in the next life, who will you repay in the next life. After decades of traveling in the world, you come and go, weaving a world of mortals, joys and sorrows. If one day I go back, but have no regrets
"Writing rhyme, please ask your mother to be safe." A soft greeting awakened Qing Chen from his thoughts. Under the sun, amidst the shadows of flowers, writing rhyme, dressed in a blue dress, bowed in front of the table, smiling with bright eyes.
"Get up." Qing Chen struggled to get up, and Shu Yun hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "Is your mother better today?"
Qing Chen supported her hand and sat up, "With you coming to take care of me every day, I feel better every day. Your golden needle technique has been truly taught by Zhang Dingshui."
Writing rhyme took out the gold needle, smiled, and said: "I have studied with the master for seven or eight years in Muyuantang. If I still don't like it, wouldn't I be ashamed of the master? In the future, I will ask my mother to teach me more." .”
Qing Chen saw that her hands were steady and confident, and she nodded in praise. In a few years, she would really be better than blue. Looking at writing rhyme, she still couldn't help but think of another woman who killed her child and almost ruined her life. Both are young and beautiful, and the same are beautiful, one has turned to ashes, and the other is rejuvenated by a wonderful hand on the line of life and death.
It would be self-deception to say that she does not regret the pride and conceit of the past, but at this moment, her heart is still at peace after all, and she can't help but sigh softly: "I really didn't expect that you would save me that day."
The shadows of the thin golden needles were reflected in the beautiful apricot eyes with a steady luster, and she said: "My medical skills are accomplished by my mother alone, and I should repay my mother for her kindness."
Qing Chen said: "People perfect themselves, this is your own blessing."
Writing rhyme raised his head, Qing Chen looked at her and smiled, under the pale golden sun, the shadows of flowers were dancing, the breeze was warming, and the whispers of the maids and the laughter of the little princess could be heard from the corridor. After Shu Yun collected the golden needles, Baguio hugged the little princess and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, look at the little princess is smiling again, the eyes of the little princess are exactly the same as your mother's when she smiles, very beautiful."
Although Yuan Yu was born prematurely, he was very healthy. He just woke up at this time, not crying or fussing. His dark eyes were looking around. When he saw Qing Chen, he began to move around in the swaddling baby, with small hands and feet. Stretching restlessly, as if to come to the mother.
Qing Chen hurriedly said to Bi Yao, "Let me hug her."
Bi Yao squatted down and sent Yuan Yu to her arms. Qing Chen was weak in his hands, but he just hugged Yuan Yu, still supported by Bi Yao, his heart was tender but full of heart.
This is her child, she and Ye Tianling's flesh and blood, eyes are like hers, but the slightly straight nose bridge and thin lips are like Ye Tianling. His and her blood flowed in the small body, blending together and growing into one life miraculously, and they could never be separated again.
Looking at Yuan Yu's pretty face, she is still in a dream, all the pain and suffering are worth it, the satisfaction she has never had before.
Yuan Yu lay in his mother's arms, shaking his little hands with a smile, and finally grabbed Qing Chen's fingers, giggling happily. Writing rhyme: "Such a child who loves to laugh is not like the temper of the emperor. The little princess looks like a mother from the inside to the outside."
Qing Chen teased Yuan Yu, feeling somewhat proud in his heart. Yes, she hoped that her child would be like her, as lucky as her, that even through the ups and downs, she would have a lover who would stay with her whole heart and a life-and-death confidant. She hopes that her child will be healthier than her, grow up safely, and use her wisdom and courage to pursue the splendor of life to the fullest.
This is a child who loves to laugh. She brought her into this world, hoping that this world will bring her happiness from now on, that she can enjoy the beauty of this world, and that she also brings endless beauty to this world.
She couldn't help smiling, and suddenly saw the maids beside her knelt down one by one, and when she looked back, Ye Tianling was behind her, looking at her and Yuan Yu. Fragments of light and shadow fell on his eyes and shoulders, making it difficult to hide his dignity and solemnity, but his slightly tired expression was warm and full of smiles.
"Your Majesty." Writing rhyme hurriedly stood up.
Seeing her there, Ye Tianling nodded with a light smile, and asked, "Is the queen feeling better?"
Xie Yun replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as you don't worry about it, your mother will recover after a while, but after all, she has lost her vitality and blood, and I'm afraid it will take a year or so."
Ye Tianling said: "It's hard work for you to come to the palace every day."
Writing rhyme smiled and said: "I don't dare to write rhyme, this is the duty of a doctor."
Ye Tianling stood in front of the corridor and chatted with Shu Yun, Qing Chen handed Yuan Yu to Baguio, he turned around and glanced at Yuan Yu, raised his hand to ask Bi Yao to take her back, and Shu Yun followed suit Kneel down.
Ye Tianling sat down next to Qing Chen. He hadn't been to the Central Palace for several days. This was a rare event, but now he just said lightly: "Great victory in the East China Sea."
Although hearing the good news, a trace of melancholy flashed across Qing Chen's brows. Although Ye Tianling had shown great favor to Yuan Yu in the past few months, she had never been very affectionate. She remained silent for a while, and finally asked: "Fourth brother, are you Don’t you like Yuanyu?”
Ye Tianling was taken aback, "Why do you say that?"
Qing Chen said: "You don't like her that much, I can feel it, because she is a daughter?"
Ye Tianling frowned slightly, turned his head and said, "A daughter and a son are not the same, a daughter is like you, how could I not like it?"
Qing Chen looked into his eyes quietly, he was suddenly a little embarrassed, turned his head away, and after a while, he turned around and said: "Don't think about it, I just... When I see this child, I always think of that day, I..." He seemed Some didn't know how to speak, so they frowned, with a look of embarrassment in their eyes, and subconsciously held her tightly in their arms: "Qing'er, don't do that again, I dare not think about it."
Qing Chen's heart was so sore and soft that he couldn't speak, sometimes he was happy and sometimes sad. He is such a blade-like man, who can dominate the wind and clouds with a smile, kill thousands of miles with a rage, and the world is in his hands. At this moment, he is just an ordinary person in front of her. He has taken off his hard mask and no longer hides his weakness. with fear.
She will never forget the way he looked at her in front of the bed that day.
At that time, she really felt the breath of death, but he stubbornly stayed by her side and did not let go, which made this ray of soul that was about to dissipate so attached to the world, and refused to leave for a long time.
Death together is like life, she still has too many things she wants to do with him. She has survived, even if there are thousands of times, she will still survive, as long as he is still there.
She leaned on his shoulder, leaning against his warmth, and said softly: "Fourth brother, no more, ten years, twenty years, one hundred years, I will be with you all my life."
Ye Tianling gently stroked her hair, and said in a low voice, "I want to live forever."
Qing Chen smiled and said: "The next life is so far away, who knows, what if you get lost?"
Ye Tianling raised her face and looked at her deeply, as if he wanted to see everything about her. He suddenly leaned over and pressed a kiss on her forehead, and said in a low voice, "Life after life, use this as evidence."
Qing Chen smiled lightly, and kissed his lips tenderly: "From life to life, take this as evidence."
As tall as a green peak, proudly, like a leisurely autumn water, the bright waves of the jade lake under the corridor, illuminate the couple, the shadows of the two overlap, and they are accompanied by each other, and there is no separation.
