On July 15th, during the Hungry Ghost Festival, several Huai'an families jointly tricked the Huai'an guard into opening the city gate, Qi Tingyan quietly entered Huai'an, and Ye Shiyi's 50,000 Rakshasa army went around from Siyang to the back of Suqian.
Before the arrival of the Raksha army, there was a sudden thunderstorm in the originally sunny weather. Under the cover of the thunderstorm, the Raksha army rushed into Suqian, which had no time to close the gate.
After a bloody battle day and night, and after paying a huge price, Suqian fell into the hands of the Raksha Army.
The transportation lines of the canal and the Yellow River were all cut off.

In December, 20,000 elite Rakshasa troops crossed the mountains of Bianzhou Road to surprise Baidi City, captured Fengjie, and opened up the Yangtze River Passage.
Sichuan and Shu outside the Guan were at war at the same time, so He Li slowed down the pace of attacking Jiankang, while Chen Bing Tangquan in Chuzhou, while cleaning up the remaining forces of Zhao Mingliang and King An in Jiangbei.
This year, Bianjing snowed early, and on the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, there was a blizzard one after another.
Outside the window was covered with snow, and the flowers and trees were like ice sculptures, but the children dressed in brocade clothes and carved from jade were having fun in the snow.
Seeing Ling Qingyu looking up and looking out of the window from time to time, Alan smiled and said: "Okay, they have night souls and they will watch, and nothing will happen. Let me tell you, just be good and stay in the room, or when will you catch a cold? Talent? You are not afraid of exhausting Shisan to death."
Ling Qingyu smiled sarcastically, grabbed a handful of peanuts from the low table and gave them to her, and said with a smile, "Come here, eat more, this time give me a daughter." Winter came early this year, since I went down Qilian Mountain, Not only was July 14 not as severe as before, but even the chills were much better. When the snow fell, she would go to the snow with the children to play wildly.
Alan squinted her eyes, turned to Cheng Yuqin and said, "Your daughter might as well be brought over to her."
Cheng Yuqin covered her mouth and smiled softly: "My daughter is very naughty, it's good to come and play, I'm afraid my sister will get annoyed after a long time." Ling Qingyu here not only adopted Xiao Zheng, but also Lan, who was basically thrown over by Alan. Bao, the other few are the children of those generals. Occasionally, Su Wanyun and her and the children of a few female officers will come over to play together. To be honest, in Ling Qingyu's place, not only people like Su Hexiang and Mr. Zhu come to teach, even martial arts There are experts like Ye Fei Ye Po who teach, but in the eyes of a scholar like Fan Zheng, this is not a place where girls can come.
Ling Qingyu smiled, turned her head and looked out of the window again, amidst the snowflakes, Ye Po stood quietly in black, watching the movements of those little guys, she would glance over from time to time, and meet her eyes Then, the eyes will be slightly bent, with a warm smile, and then turned away.
"By the way, Wanyun, how is Fang Qingyan doing now?" Alan moved her big belly and asked enthusiastically.
Su Wanyun was holding a piece of snack in her hand, and when she heard her question, she smiled and said, "I heard that things are going well. Wasn't General Gao injured when chasing Zhao Mingliang? That girl is taking care of the whole process, I think, as long as the fighting stops , I’m afraid something good is coming.”
The war... There are still remnants of fighting in the north, northwest, Sichuan, southern Xinjiang, including Jiangbei, but here in Bianjing, I don't seem to feel it at all. The bloodbath half a year ago has completely faded away, just like this original Dingguo Mansion, like the current Ling Mansion, after the old forces were purged, new forces moved in, the market returned to prosperity, and the streets were still bustling with people.
However, Bianjing is not a good location for the capital city. The sea transportation has already begun, and the port city is the best place for development. After the world is settled in the future, the capital must be moved.
"Speaking of which, General He is in his early thirties, right? He really doesn't plan to marry a wife?" Cheng Yuqin smiled, and glanced at Ling Qingyu with a smile.
Ling Qingyu smiled, and before he could answer, he heard a commotion outside the yard, and then the two radish heads in the yard jumped out while shouting for their godfather.
A group of people walked in outside the courtyard. The leader was tall and tall, wearing a red iron armor with a majestic look, and the red cloak fluttered in vivid colors in the wind and snow. With a gentle smile on his mature and handsome face, he hugged him with one hand. A child pounced on him, pricked his beard stubble to make the child laugh happily, and looked at the main house with gentle eyes.
Seeing Ling Qingyu rushing out, Cheng Yuqin and Su Wanyun glanced at each other, then lowered their eyes, and sneered in their hearts, those members of the Fan family were still thinking about sending him to He Li's bed, but fortunately, they didn't speak out.
Throwing the child to the hands of the people behind, He Li hurriedly took a few steps, took off his cloak and put his arms around Ling Qingyu's body, saying: "How can you come out dressed like this? It's just a little bit and I didn't pay attention. What if I catch a cold again?"
"Yeah, I know, I know, I'll talk about it as soon as I get back!" Ling Qingyu said with a slight smile on his brows.
He Li rubbed her head, looked at her slightly pouting lips, his heart was full, even the pain in his stomach seemed to be gone, he said with a smile: "If you don't take good care of it for two days , I’m afraid the New Year’s Eve dinner won’t last.”
"Hey, yes, it's troublesome to think about it. Going to socialize with those people, really, why can't you go alone?" Ling Qingyu frowned unconsciously, with a hint of coquettishness in his tone.
"Hey, master, don't we call it entertainment? You can't even abandon us." He Dongping poked his head out from behind and smiled.
Seeing her eyes brighten up, He Li smiled and said, "They drew lots and kept Gu Cheng and Gao Liu there, and everyone else came back to celebrate the New Year, but they can't stay for long."
"That's a good thing, you guys go home quickly, come back after a long time, spend more time with your wife and children, and bring them here to play tomorrow." Ling Qingyu said with a smile. After the invasion of Bianjing, people like Wei Langhe Dongping sent people to bring their family members into Bianjing. Anyway, there are many vacant houses in Bianjing, and the distance is shorter, so they can spend some time together.
"Then let's go back first." Wei Lang gave a salute, helped the others, and retreated from the courtyard with a smile.
Su Wanyun Cheng Yuqin hurriedly got up and said goodbye together, if she said she didn't know before, and still can't understand now, then she is blind.
According to the habit of the Ling family, they will gather together for a meal during the Chinese New Year, which is the busiest time, and this year's annual meeting will not only have those from the Ling family, but also more officials who have defected, including Bianjing Huai'an Those aristocratic families in Yangzhou and other places.
It's no wonder this person didn't want to go, she didn't like to socialize with unfamiliar people, so she scraped Ling Qingyu's pouty lips, and while removing her armor, He Li said with a smile: "You don't have to keep arguing like in previous years. In the end, the tables are all separated, so it makes sense, just leave earlier.”
Aristocratic family, Zhao Mingliang defended Jiankang according to the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and absorbed the power of the original family in Jiankang, Suzhou and other places at an extremely fast speed, and reached an alliance with the Hangzhou Zhao family of the Murong family in Suzhou who has not officially expressed their position. , and informed the Murong family about Ling Qingyu's ancestral home in Wu County. Fortunately, Zheng Xi was in Shanghai Port at the time. After receiving the letter, he took a boat from Shanghai and ran away. empty. It's just that the Ling family still has a lot of farm shops in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are a lot of people in them. Now those two families are greedy for those properties and don't move them. They just collect the goods and property, but if the attack method is not good, they can't be ruled out. The dog jumped over the wall and took those people as hostages.
The best way is to pacify Sichuan and Shu first, Xiao Se and Ye Shiyi return to the army, and Nianyuan's navy above will attack together. However, He Li sighed slightly in his heart, but his body does not allow time to drag on for too long .
He must win Jiangnan while he is still alive, and use the opportunity to send her to the throne. With the support of the army, those remaining literati from aristocratic families will have scruples and won't be too ignorant.
"He Li?" The man beside him fell silent suddenly, Ling Qingyu turned his head to look at him, and saw the deepness in his eyes and called out unconsciously.
A man in his early thirties is at his best age. As a commander in command of hundreds of thousands of troops, He Li is even more restrained and majestic. The aura of self-prestige is very frightening. Ling Qingyu has seen the scene where he didn't speak but just glanced at the other person lightly, making that person pee his pants in fright. He is mature, stable, handsome, and good-looking, so it's no wonder So many people turned around and begged her to come to her, hoping to send their daughter to his bed.
"Huh?" After answering, she didn't see anything else to say. He Li looked down and saw that she had a thoughtful but teasing smile on her face. He knew what this person was thinking when he thought about it.
Quickly stripped off the clothes on his body, and threw the person directly on the bed, He Li decided to use actions to answer her little thoughts.
After closing the door, Ye Po grabbed a child with one hand, motioned to Ye Fei, and the two of them took the children and retreated out of the yard.
Alan looked at the gate of the courtyard with his stomach full, and walked towards his own courtyard while holding Bai Wei's hand. He Li... girl, when will you realize it? You realize that this man is dying, but no matter how much the pain is, as long as you breathe, he will stand in front of you, girl, is your luck good or bad for this man
"Miraculous doctor, miraculous doctor..." Bai Wei called out several times, and seeing that she was still in awe, she unconsciously increased her voice and called out twice.
"Ah? What's the matter?" Alan came back to his senses and smiled. After Zheng Xi escaped from Shanghai, Cai Jingfang also sent many people out, and Bai Wei's family was sent to Bianjing, which happened to help her.
"Genius doctor, last time we talked about finding a few maidservants to serve in the master's yard. Why don't we procrastinate on this matter?" Bai Wei replied. Many of Ling Qingyu's personal guards died. Ying Shisan took charge of the Red Mansion. Apart from coming back at night, she also had many things to do during the day. Now she is surrounded by Ye Po Ye Fei and Ye Po Ye Fei, but those two people, it is impossible to be like him. In the past, Sum and the others did everything in their favor, so Bai Wei hired a few maids to do some chores in the yard. It's just that the news just broke out, and she didn't know how many people came here to ask for help. Although most outsiders still think that Ling Qingyu is a puppet, but this puppet is the best place to meet those golden bachelors of the Ling family. , just like Ye Shishi, as long as he comes back, he must be by her side.
Seeing the wry smile on Bai Wei's face, Alan couldn't help but smile and said, "Why, are you scared to receive the gift?"
"Genius doctor, don't make fun of me. How dare you accept me? Isn't that courting death?" Bai Wei smiled bitterly.
Alan couldn't help being a little surprised, so serious? Although I heard Ying Shisan tell Ling Qingyu as a joke, saying that someone from those aristocratic families found Chang Qing and wanted to send their concubine daughter in, at that time Ying Shisan still laughed and said that if someone really dared to go to Ye Shishi's bed, Ye Shili dared to kill her whole family, but he didn't care about it at the time, but seeing Bai Wei's appearance now, he couldn't feel a slight movement in his heart, that child Ye Shiyi, I'm afraid he would really do this
With a chuckle, Alan thought for a while and said, "I remember that Night Breeze brought his sister here last time. That girl looks very clever, let's try it with her first."
"Hey, Zizi, she likes Ye Po." Bai Wei sighed.
"Isn't that good? In Sixteen Nights, Ye Po and Ye Fei are the only ones who haven't married yet, right?" Alan pulled his cloak together and said with a light smile.
"Genius doctor!" Bai Wei couldn't help calling out, and gave her a look, you don't know, who is in Ye Po's heart
Alan sighed lightly, and said, "Let that child try."
Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, then thought about it, if Zizi could see Ye Po's thoughts clearly, maybe he could give up this thought, so she nodded.
