There are countless large and small boats on the river bank. Opposite is the Yan Kingdom, and the two armies are facing each other across the river.
Luo Zhao, the governor of the Song Dynasty, was handsome in appearance, tall in stature, and nicknamed "Langjun with a Jade Face". He was dressed in silver armor and climbed high on the bank of the river. He looked into the distance with his starry eyes. He held the sword at his waist and hunted in the wind with his white cloak, rippled by the rolling river water.
After watching for a while, he turned around and went back. Someone brought a white horse. Luo Zhao got on the horse and rode away, accompanied by guards.
Returning to the central military tent, he was about to take off his shoulder shawl when someone approached from behind and removed his armor.
Luo Zhao's nose twitched slightly, his eyes lowered, and he saw a pair of white untied catkins wrapped around his neck from behind. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he drew his sword with a clang, turned around suddenly, and placed the sword across the neck of a thin pawn. , shouted: "Where did the assassin come from?"
The pawn in the felt hat was startled and raised his head in panic, revealing his beautiful face. When he saw the playful smile on Luo Zhao's face, he immediately knew that he had been tricked.
I wanted to give him a surprise, but instead I was shocked.
He didn't care about the sword or not. He immediately raised his long and fair neck and slammed into the sword's edge, Ying said: "You try to kill me."
His teeth are white and his voice is very pleasant.
The pawn is none other than Feng Guan'er, Luo Zhao's wife, disguised as a man.
Dressed in a soldier's male attire, it is difficult to conceal his stunning beauty, like a fish or a wild goose.
The two met in the capital of the Song Dynasty, when flowers were blooming.
Luo Zhao came back from the battle and led his troops into the city. They had silver spears and white horses, and silver armor and white armor. They were so heroic and heroic. They were right in front, attracting shy whispers from many beauties.
When Lord Lingxiao came down the mountain, Feng Guan'er, who was visiting the capital, also made way for the crowd as the army entered the city. From the whispers of the crowd, he knew who the general with the silver spear and the white horse was.
As he passed by her, a bird chirped from the trees behind the backyard wall, causing Luo Zhao to look back and see her on the roadside. Their eyes met, and it was difficult to separate them. Luo Zhaole's truce horse raised its hands, and the army stopped advancing.
Luo Zhao turned his horse back, and with the sound of hoofbeats, he came to her and looked down at her.
Feng Guan'er, who was still a young girl, refused to accept it and raised her head proudly to confront him.
After looking at her for a while, Luo Zhao smiled, held the gun in his hand and said, "I, General Luo Zhao, would like to grow old together with this girl."
The crowds around her were in an uproar, and Luo Zhao had already leaned over and stretched out a hand to her.
Feng Guan'er blushed a little and said with disdain: "You are a general of the Song Dynasty after all. Isn't it embarrassing to be so rude?"
"I'm not afraid, girl, are you?" Luo Zhao asked with a smile.
By some strange coincidence, Feng Guan'er stretched out her hand and put it into his palm. Then she exclaimed, and Luo Zhao waved her arms and lifted her onto the horse, holding her in his arms and riding with her.
Feng Guan'er, who was accompanying him, was shocked and shouted: "General Luo, don't be rude!"
Luo Zhao didn't care about them, and left alone amidst the shouts and chases. He abandoned the army behind him and galloped straight to the imperial city.
Amidst the sounds of surprise along the way, there were countless envious glances.
He brought Feng Guan'er into the palace to face the Emperor of Song Dynasty and asked the emperor for marriage. When he said this, he didn't even know who Feng Guan'er was or even his name. Emperor Song was inexplicably upset by him.
Fortunately, someone around Emperor Song knew Feng Guan'er and knew that Feng Guan'er was the granddaughter of the previous head of Lingxiao Pavilion.
It was easier to deal with knowing his identity. The emperor's adopted son was a good match for the granddaughter of the newly appointed head of Lingxiao Pavilion. The Song Emperor agreed, but he said that Lingxiao Pavilion would agree. After all, Feng Guan'er's identity lay there.
The emperor agreed. When Luo Zhao led Feng Guan'er out of the palace, he was stopped by the people guarding the palace from Lingxiao Pavilion.
Luo Zhao handed over the sword in his hand to Feng Guan'er. The two had a good understanding, and Feng Guan'er took advantage of the situation and drew his sword out, ordering the people in Lingxiao Pavilion to move away.
In this way, Luo Zhao took Feng Guan'er home. Someone from the palace was sent to remind Luo Zhao not to mess around until Lingxiao Pavilion agreed.
Luo Zhao said that if he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life. He would not allow Lingxiao Pavilion to regret it, so he would sleep with him first!
I really did it as I said. The wedding was something that happened in the future, so I arranged the wedding in advance on the same day.
As expected, Lingxiao Pavilion didn't even have the chance to object. It was already like this, so it could only agree. It's just that there are countless disciples in Lingxiao Pavilion who are enamored with the granddaughter of the former headmaster. Who would have thought that she would be suddenly taken away by an outsider, and many Lingxiao Pavilion disciples are devastated.
Emperor Song was also holding back his emotions. He originally wanted to marry his daughter, a princess, to Luo Zhao. Who would have thought that Luo Zhao, who had always been steady and steady, could actually do such a thing...
At this time, Luo Zhao was afraid of accidental injury, so he withdrew the sword from his arms without looking at it. With a swish, the sword was sheathed, and a pair of pink fists were pounding on his chest.
Luo Zhao laughed loudly and grabbed her wrists.
Feng Guan'er smiled and asked, "How did you know it was me?"
Luo Zhao: "You can recognize a beautiful woman by smelling her fragrance."
Feng Guan'er snickered.
Luo Zhao suddenly became serious, "Why are you here?"
Feng Guan'er's bright eyes flickered, her arms hooked around his neck, and she looked up lovingly and said, "I miss you. How about I stay with you and add fragrance to your red sleeves?"
Luo Zhao shook his head: "In the army, there is no room for adultery between children. Come back quickly!"
Feng Guan'er tiptoed, her cherry lips pressed against his lips, and she hugged him tightly...
The guards outside the tent pulled the curtain, and a row of people stood guard outside the tent to prevent anyone from approaching.
When the spring breeze came, the sound of a musical instrument sounded in the back tent, and the couple was covered in thin clothes.
Luo Zhao was sitting cross-legged and playing the piano. Feng Guan'er, with disheveled hair, had flushed cheeks and was lying on his back with his eyes squinted, a look of warmth and enjoyment on his face.
Luo Zhao, who was playing the piano, said: "The army is not a place where children can stay together for a long time. It is easy to shake the morale of the army. Go back to the capital as soon as possible."
Feng Guan'er: "I don't know when the war will end?"
Luo Zhao: “It will naturally end when it’s time to end.”
Feng Guan'er: "I heard that the decision has been delayed for a long time, and we have already entered into a confrontation with the Yan State. It is a waste of people and money, so it is better to withdraw our troops as soon as possible."
Luo Zhao smiled and said nothing. The situation has reached this point. How can we easily withdraw our troops? Even if we can't fight, we will have to spend a lot of time. I am afraid that all the kings of the country will know this opportunity to consume the strength of the spiritual world. As a Song Dynasty, he How can the governor of the country not understand this? This is why he will not attack easily.
There are some things that those who can understand can naturally understand, but they must not be said out loud, even if they are a couple, he cannot say it.
…
On top of the red hunting eagle, looking at the distant mountains, Lei Zongkang and Wu Sanliang looked at each other. Even though they were well prepared, their eyes were still filled with horror.
The high mountain is a natural plateau barrier that separates the Kingdom of Zhao and the State of Wei. The highest peak deep in the high mountain is where the Piaomiao Pavilion is located. No other sect in this area dares to do so. Get a foothold.
"Let's go!" Wu Sanliang shouted in a deep voice, and the red hunting eagle quickly turned around and left, not daring to approach that area at all for fear of being seen by people there.
This was what Yuan Gang had warned in advance. He had pointed out in advance that the Golden Wing he was following was most likely going to Piaomiao Pavilion. If confirmed, he must not approach the Piaomiao Pavilion area and turn back immediately.
The reason for this warning was not only that Yuan Gang and Niu Youdao had considerable suspicions in advance, but also because Yuan Gang drew lines on the map to predict Jin Wing's whereabouts, which was consistent with his judgment.
The two of them spent a lot of time tracking the golden wing all the way to this point. Due to Yuan Gang's instructions, they found that they had to avoid all the mountains. They were also afraid that there were pre-set sight lines on the mountains and the terrain was too close to the red hunting eagle and it would easily be caught. Discover.
…
When a visitor arrived at the Thatched Cottage, three black jade sculptures landed, and the wheelchair on one of the black jade sculptures was lifted off. The person in the wheelchair was Meng Shanming, and the others were the guards sent to pick up the guests.
For Meng Shanming's safety, Guan Fangyi personally went out to pick him up, and only brought Meng Shanming from Fucheng. Not even Luo Da'an, the apprentice who pushed Meng Shanming's wheelchair.
Niu Youdao showed up in person to greet the guests. He quickly stepped forward and said with cupped hands: "Shuai Meng, it's really rude and presumptuous to invite you all the way. I hope Haihan can do that."
Meng Shanming returned the greeting, "The Taoist priest has embarrassed me, but I would rather live in the Thatched Villa forever."
Niu Youdao waved, and Duan Hu stepped forward to push the wheelchair and they went to the backyard together.
Shang Shuqing, who was nearby, heard the familiar sound of a wheelchair. She came over and saw that it was Meng Shanming. She was quite surprised, so it was inevitable for her to go up and greet her.
When they arrived at Niu Youdao's room in the inner courtyard, Guan Fangyi, Duan Hu and others all retreated, leaving only Niu Youdao and Meng Shanming.
After looking at this situation, Meng Shanming felt suspicious and asked, "What is the purpose of Master Dao?"
Niu Youdao poured tea with his own hands and placed it in front of him, "The reply I gave to the prince before was a bit rude. The prince won't blame me, right?"
Hearing this, Meng Shanming hurriedly waved his hands, "No! The prince was too impulsive. But there is a reason. Prince Ning spent his whole life fighting for the peace of the Yan Kingdom. The prince has the same style as his father. What's more, the prince is from the Shang royal family, so he can't Sitting back and watching, I will inevitably be a little impulsive, so please forgive me, Master Dao."
Niu Youdao smiled and said: "It's better to be impulsive. If you are a submissive person, you will not be a good commander. If you don't have some blood, how can you create a foundation in this troubled world? I will not stay with the prince to this day. But blood belongs to blood, brains It's not good if you have a fever. If the prince can listen to Meng Shuai's words, it's better to remind him more."
Meng Shanming nodded and did not answer directly. He asked instead: "Is this why Master Dao called me here?"
Niu Youdao waved his hand, "Shuai Meng is a generation of famous generals who are like gods in military use. This time I am interviewing Shuai Meng. I want to ask him for advice. If Nanzhou sends troops, how sure is Shuai Meng of quelling the chaos in Yan?"
This question made Meng Shanming silent for a long time, and finally replied in a deep voice: "It's easy to say, but it's hard to say."
Niu Youdao said, "How easy is it?"
Meng Shanming stroked his beard, and the light in his eyes slowly flickered, "If the conditions are met, give me a month, and I can defeat the Cangzhou rebels!"
Niu Youdao was surprised. It wasn't that he didn't believe in this person's ability, but that it was a bit exaggerated. It took a long time for the army to travel back and forth. How could the rebels be wiped out in a month? He reminded: "The rebels are now gathering two million people." , how can our Nanzhou troops suppress the rebellion in one month?"
Meng Shanming sneered, and an inexplicable aura came over him, "It's just a mob, it's really vulnerable. As long as the princes and horses work together, it can be quelled!"
Niu Youdao smiled bitterly: "The imperial court cannot make the princes obey orders, so how can the princes obey my orders?"
Meng Shanming's eyes flashed and he said: "Simple! Just make a battle plan and let the princes implement it. Those who fail to implement it will be destroyed! The Nanzhou army does not suppress the rebels, only the princes!"
