Du Ming's reinforcements arrived at Mibo Mountain five days later, with 20,000 infantry and 10,000 migrant workers led by Du Ming's deputy general.
With so many people, the speed of building the cottage was much faster. After handing over the general affairs, Meng Su was ready to go to Lanzhou. Ling Qingyu originally wanted to visit Yanzhou. I heard that Du Ming's wife was doing very well. The food planting there was fruitful, but Meng Su and Lieutenant General Du Ming persuaded her to go directly to Dai County. Although the party is now in chaos because of Li Yuanqing's killing, Yanzhou is still on the front line, and there is no natural danger to stop it, and Meng Su's army is not there, so it is really not safe.
Meng Su and Ye Shiyi sent Ling Qingyu two hundred miles away, and when they saw that they were on the official road, they turned around and left for Lanzhou.
The history of the Hexi Corridor in the hands of foreigners began and ended during the Xuanping period.
As the Mid-Autumn Festival gradually progresses, the summer heat subsides in Dai County, the wind brings a hint of coolness, the sky is as blue as washed, and the white clouds change into various shapes.
At least in Alan's eyes, all the blossoms became food. With a long sigh, Alan moved his butt. His stomach was already eight months old, and it was really inconvenient to move. His figure had already doubled in size, and his appetite was particularly good. He would feel hungry again soon after eating.
If that girl saw herself like this, she would definitely widen her eyes and then laugh, that guy! It must be done...
I don't know what happened to that girl? The death of Ying Jiu and Yan Qi must have dealt a great blow to her. That girl can't see her own intentions clearly, and now she must be so hurt that her heart is riddled with holes, and she still has to bear it...
"Miraculous doctor! Miraculous doctor!" A soldier stumbled into the courtyard and shouted, "Miraculous doctor! The lord is here!"
"Ah?" It took a while for Alan to realize that the lord was referring to Ling Qingyu. Ever since he heard that Ling Qingyu had erected the Ling family banner on Guangnan Road, the names of everyone here have changed, and those who don't want to change have to change. , such as Fan Zheng, who changed his title in the face of He Li's cold disobedience and kill your whole family.
"Girl!" Alan jumped up from the rocking chair after reacting, and the ghost doctor who was about to bring food in a panic dropped the plate and supported her and shouted: "Ancestor! Take it easy!"
Supported by the ghost doctor, Alan quickly walked towards the gate. It has been more than a year, and he still doesn't know what happened to that girl, that girl who is strong on the outside and does nothing on the inside!
A few steps away from the gate, Alan slowed down and looked at Ling Qingyu who stood at the gate and stared blankly at the bright as new plaque on the mansion gate. Her eyes were full of leisure and memories, and even more secretly hurt. pain.
Taking a deep breath, Alan yelled: "Damn girl! You still know how to come back!"
Ling Qingyu came back to his senses, looked at the chubby woman in front of her with a face full of astonishment, and called carefully: "Alan?"
I rely on! I just knew this girl would look like this! Alan snorted, raised his head slightly, and said, "What? Are you jealous? Are you envious?"
Ling Qingyu rubbed her nose and laughed a few times, hurried forward a few steps, carefully and respectfully raised her arm, after Alan waved away the ghost doctor's support in disgust, the two walked a few steps into the yard, I couldn't help but ask, "Whose?"
Uh... Alan looked down at the sky and replied in a low voice: "You don't know until you're born." Seeing Ling Qingyu's face, don't you know? Alan blushed unconsciously, and then said in a low voice confidently: "Damn girl, do you know who you are pregnant with?"
Ling Qingyu laughed, no longer entangled, anyone's is fine, as long as you know it's Alan's.
Walking into the main courtyard, seeing Ling Qingyu staring blankly at the courtyard that was exactly the same as when she left, even where the stones were placed, Alan held her hand and said: "There are people cleaning here every day, He Li will come and live whenever he has time. Living in a wing, sometimes sitting in the yard for an entire afternoon."
Ling Qingyu's expression moved slightly. As soon as he entered Dai County, he knew that after He Li returned to the army, he led the army out of the customs and fought all the way from Shuozhou to Datong Mansion. , only returned to the customs a few days ago.
"Girl..." Alan called softly to bring her back to her senses, and said with a smile, "I know, I know what you mean..." The dead should not be chased, cherish the person in front of you, this is what Alan has always said to her. After reaching the big tree in the yard, he asked in a low voice: "Alan, you already knew about Yan Qi's injury, right?"
"Yes, he was seriously injured in Crouching Dragon Peak. If he could rest in peace, he could live for a few more years. I told him at that time that even if I gave him medicine, if he still followed you like this, he would not live for three years. " Alan took Ling Qingyu's hand into the study, sat on the soft couch, and said: "At that time, he smiled and said, three years is enough... He said, if he hadn't met you, he would have died in the West Lake , and there will be no such happy days in the future, he is enough... "
"Girl... cry if you want to cry..."
It was already night when He Li got the letter and rushed back from the pass, the light in the study came out from the window, and the figures of the two women leaned together, whispering.
He Li stood at the gate of the yard in a daze for a moment, and was about to take a few steps forward, but was blocked by Ying Shisan, who was hidden by the door, and said in a low voice, "Don't disturb them."
Four people close to her died within a year, and her heart was already full of holes. She kept suppressing it because she didn't want them to worry. Only in front of Alan could she really cry. He Li glanced at the study room, followed Ying Shisan went to the side courtyard nearby. Ying Shisan handed Meng Su's letter to him, and then briefly explained Meng Su's plan.
"Well, now is a good time to attack Xiliang," He Li said while opening the letter: "Tongguan and Chang'an are both in our hands, so there is no worries for the time being. When the internal turmoil in the party is still uncertain and people are in panic, it is the best time to send troops. it is good."
"Ye Shiyi and the Thousands went with him."
He Li was slightly taken aback, then read the letter at a glance, pondered for a moment, then laughed softly, and said, "Ye Shiyi, give him some more time and actual combat, this kid will be in trouble in the future! Meng Su wants to take him with him." "War is no better than one-on-one, it doesn't matter if you have high martial arts, even if you have the best martial arts, facing an army of tens of thousands of people, you can only die. Fighting depends on courage and resourcefulness, as well as the ability to control the army, Ye Shishi This kid is ruthless enough, and he can hit the nail on the head when looking at problems. You can tell from his assassination of Li Yuanqing this time, but he still has a lot of thinking modes of fighting alone. If he can really switch to the thinking mode of a general in the future, it will be A terrible general.
Three days after Ling Qingyu arrived in Dai County, Taiyuan Magistrate Fan Zheng led a group of civil officials to visit him.
Most officials were unwilling and disdainful to pay respects to a woman, but under the watchful eyes of the guards on both sides, especially He Li who was standing under the woman, they lowered their heads no matter how disdainful they were.
After greeting the civil servants with a smile on his face, Ling Qingyu ordered someone to summon Mrs. Fan Zheng to meet him, and said to Ying Shisan: "San Shisan, send someone to Guangnan Road and ask Mr. Zhu and Su Hexiang to come. "
A group of duplicity literati, even if they are suppressed by He Li's force now, they will rebound if they have the opportunity in the future. Han Bian is fine in business and general affairs, but in government affairs, Zhu Weili is still needed. Only Weili can suppress them, and then during this period of time, let the lower officials be replaced by members of the Ling family. In this way, when Heli attacks the Central Plains, Hedong Road can become a truly impregnable rear.
Ling Qingyu recalled that in Chang'an, he was shocked when he heard that Ye Shiyi had wiped out fifteen big families overnight, but now that he thought about it, that was the most direct method.
"Master, Mrs. Fan is here." Sum raised the door curtain and said in a low voice.
Ling Qingyu tidied up the expression on his face, and went out with a smile. Seeing not only Cheng Yuqin standing in the yard, but also Su Wanyun, he was truly overjoyed.
After entering the study, Cheng Yuqin let go of her hand, and Yingying bowed down and gave a full salute.
"Yuqin?" Ling Qingyu helped her up in confusion.
"This gift is for my brother, thank you for collecting his body." Cheng Yuqin said with a red eye, still smiling. Now, it is self-evident who Cheng Jia wrote the ten-thousand-word book for. However, Cheng Jia died for her, and she did not owe his affection, even to the point of helping him collect his body regardless of life or death. If Ling Qingyu didn't go, My father didn't have the guts, so Cheng Jia's body would probably be thrown to the dogs by the order of the Fourth Prince.
Ling Qingyu didn't feel her eye circles turn red, she sat on the soft couch and said, "Are you blaming me for saying that?"
Cheng Yuqin shook her head, shook her hand and said, "Don't worry too much, it's just one reason why my brother likes you. He did this for the common people of the world. I already know many decrees of the Ling family. They are all from the old brother. want to do but can’t.”
"Those decrees were originally implemented in accordance with the national policies written by Cheng Jia." Cheng Yuqin's eyes lit up when Ling Qingyu said with a smile, and he sighed softly that it was true, and then asked, "I don't know where my brother is buried?" Bianjing changed a lot on the day Cheng Jia died. It would be nice if Ling Qingyu could escape by herself. Cheng Jia's body would definitely not be brought out. Maybe it was buried somewhere. If she knew the place, she could find a way to rebury it.
After thinking for a while, Ling Qingyu said bluntly: "Cheng Jia, I buried him in the Spirit Snake Valley under Crouching Dragon Peak. Outsiders can't enter there, and the body can be kept as new for a thousand years. If I die, I will also be buried there."
In that case, did you take your brother out as well? The corners of Cheng Yuqin's eyes moistened, and she said, "So, Yuqin would like to thank you even more. It has always been my brother's wish to be with you..." Brother must be satisfied with not being in the same quilt in life, but in death.
"Okay, we finally got together again." Su Wanyun wiped away their tears with a handkerchief, and then bowed deeply to Ling Qingyu, saying: "Wanyun also wants to thank sister for helping."
Ling Qingyu's eyes turned red again. When she left, she said that Su Wanyun was afraid of danger if she stayed in Bianjing, but it was Yan Qi who arranged for someone to rescue her. Even if she didn't say anything, she could still know who she was thinking about. Yan Qi, who did everything without making a sound, is no longer around...
"What are you doing? Hold your head and cry for a meeting?" Alan came in holding his stomach, and after yelling in surprise, he said to Sum: "Boy, go and make some snacks like yesterday for Auntie, remember, your family Put more sugar in master's, and less in mine."
When Sum went out, Alan leaned back on the soft couch carelessly, waved to the three of them and said, "Okay, okay, I finally survived, think about what to do in the future, girl, the one you mentioned What the hell is going on with the Women's League?"
"Women's League?" Su Wanyun asked in surprise.
"Yes, you see, all the officials outside are men now, because we women can't do what?" Ling Qingyu glanced at the three of them, and said with a smile: "Of course not, it's just that this society doesn't give opportunities That’s all, why not give it a chance? Because men just want to use this to suppress women. Without a job and no financial independence, women are just their playthings. To change this, first of all, we must allow women to come out and do things. things that can be done.”
This statement was indeed bold, but it made Su Wanyun and Cheng Yuqin's eyes open.
"When the party plan is confirmed, we must attack the Central Plains. When the army is dispatched, the logistics will be indispensable. I think, first of all, we must call women to make military uniforms, make medicines, and form two departments. The heads are also held by women. The Ling family is in Yinzhou, Yanzhou. The collection of military rations is all in charge of a woman, and now she is doing better than men."
"So, I don't know what I can do? If I want to make clothes, a few maids and I can also do it." Su Wanyun blushed and said.
"Just you guys can't do it. We need to mobilize the military first, and then pay for the women outside. We don't want to eat a fat man, but we can start with the first step. If Wanyun is willing, can she be my steward? It’s just that this is for publicity.”
Su Wanyun lowered her eyes, and after thinking for a while, she raised her head and said firmly: "I am willing, anyway, I am now an abandoned wife of the Mei family, and my natal family also treats me as a dead person, what am I afraid of!"
The waves hit the rocky cliffs and made snow-white spray, and the splashed water droplets were like pearls and jade, and a few drops fell on Zhao Yinfeng's shoe.
"Let me say," Gao Wenhe watched the strong waves crashing down the cliff, took a step back cautiously, and said, "Let's change places."
Zhao Yinfeng glanced at him and said with a smile: "Why, are you afraid?"
"I'm afraid of heights, don't you know?" Gao Wenhe glared at him, and then said, "What exactly are you planning?"
"What do your family members say?" Zhao Yinfeng asked.
"Brother can't move. My sister-in-law, nephew and niece have all come out. My father said that he and his mother are getting older, so they won't be frightened by that. Let's see what the Chai family can do." Gao Wenhe said calmly.
Chai Jinzhong took all the honorable families in the capital as hostages. After the Bianjing Incident, he gathered the dead Gao family members back to Beijing to bring their families out, but his parents were unwilling to leave, saying that their family had a blood oath. Someone Gao must not be that treacherous person, but if the Chai family betrays their righteousness, then there is no need for Gao Jiaerlang to serve the Chai family anymore, and he can do whatever he wants.
However, what Zhao Mingliang is doing now is to force Chai Jinzhong to act. He, Zhao Mingliang, can care about his grandfather's life or death, but he even brought their Gao family with him, and he didn't say hello, which made him extremely resentful. After the dead Zhao Yinfeng came back secretly, he did not hesitate to take refuge in Zhao Yinfeng. Of course, there was no refuge in fact. He was Zhao Yinfeng's iron buddy.
"It seems that Zhao Mingliang is not going to give us the armaments and military pay behind him." Zhao Yinfeng squinted his eyes and looked at the sea level. When he was pretending to be dead, Zhao Mingliang still sent a lot of things to win over his army. , Now that he is alive, Zhao Mingliang is afraid that he will not give him a copper coin if he is so angry.
"I said, you give me a letter, what should we do? Now Zhao Mingliang is watching Chai Jinzhong and Chai Jingchao start a war in Haozhou, which has already made Chai Jinzhong furious, and I'm afraid he will attack the Zhao family soon." Gao Wenhe raised his voice a little. He shouted at the top of his voice amidst the sound of waves.
Zhao Yinfeng picked out his ears and said, "Zhao Mingliang has been waiting for such a day. Didn't you see that he has already entered Chen Xuzhou? If you don't mind, I want someone to knock your old man and old lady out unconscious. how?"
"Do you still have someone in Beijing?" Gao Wenhe looked at him suspiciously. During the Bianjing incident, in order to save Ling Qingyu's men, Zhao Yinfeng's little power in Bianjing was completely exposed. Now all the guards have withdrawn. The brother who made friends with him was also transferred back. Where is he in Bianjing
"Our people have been watched to death, but some people are not noticed by them." After Zhao Yinfeng finished speaking, he walked down the cliff, and the shadows of two large ships appeared on the sea far away.
Gao Wenhe looked at the shadow of the boat in surprise, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. I said, Zhao Yinfeng, why did you build a simple pier in such a place where nothing to shit, and blow the sea breeze here every day like a Wangfuya !
"When did you hook up with the Ling family?" After jumping off the cliff a few steps, Gao Wenhe chased him and asked, "No, the Ling family is willing to support you?"
"I took refuge in Ling Qingyu." Zhao Yinfeng stopped suddenly, grinned at the stunned Gao Wenhe, and said, "I will fight Liao Kingdom for her, and she will be in charge of my military supplies."
"Who's going to get the fight?" Gao Wenhe still couldn't accept it, he grabbed Zhao Yinfeng and said, "Let me tell you, please clarify, is she going to fight for us, or are we going to fight for her?"
"Wen He, tell me, among the forces in the world, who is most likely to win in the end?" Seeing that the ship was still some distance away, Zhao Yinfeng simply found a cliff and sat down, and asked.
Chai Jinzhong? If he dared to kill Mr. Zhao, he would be dead! Chai Jingchao, directly deny it, what can be done with a bunch of pretentious families? Zhao Mingliang? If Zhao Yinfeng is determined to confront Zhao Mingliang, then Zhao Mingliang is definitely out of the game. The other scattered armed forces can be ignored. Then only He Li from Hedong Road and Meng Su from Shaanxi Road are left. Both of them belong to the Ling family...
