Jiang Xuanjin looked at the four words quietly, blinking his dark eyes very slowly.
It's not easy, when I taught her calligraphy in Feiyun Palace, I didn't let her write a single word carefully after several months of teaching, but these four characters were written one stroke at a time, which was very correct.
I really miss him.
Feeling slightly sour, he closed the letter and neatly put it back in the letter box.
"Master, pen and ink." Chengxu thoughtfully sent something up and put it in his hand, thinking that he would send it away immediately after he wrote a reply.
However, Jiang Xuanjin lowered his eyes, but waved his hand and said, "No need."
Taking advantage of the emptiness and astonishment.
Open the tent. He looked at the fully equipped soldiers on the low ground. There were a lot of injuries in the last confrontation, and there were not enough medicinal materials in the army. Many people were only slightly injured, but they couldn't wake up after falling asleep. On the way to Cangju Mountain, I don't know how many of my own people were buried.
The Northern Wei Dynasty was in turmoil and people were dying. This was not the time for his son and daughter to have an affair.
"Your Majesty." Yufeng came back from the outside, frowning and said, "A letter from Liu Jun."
When the two sides are at war, go up to fight against the enemy, secondly to fight against the enemy, and then down to attack the city. He and Liu Yunlie have been competing in secret, and he wanted to have a talk with him, but Liu Yunlie has been unwilling to negotiate. Now that Jiang Xuanjin took the initiative to send a letter, he naturally wanted to answer it.
After reading the letter carefully, he said: "Go and ask General Jiuwu to accompany me to the pavilion on the mountainside."
Chengxu was very worried: "Your Majesty, go in person?"
"There is a vanguard battalion to explore the way, why am I afraid?" Jiang Xuanjin took the armor and put it on, "Furthermore, Liu Yunlie and I have known each other for many years, and I know how he will act."
Liu Yunlie would not use this kind of pretense to deceive him, he knew that he would not be able to deceive him, so if he wanted to see him, he would definitely attend the appointment in a serious manner.
The mountain wind is quite strong, it is May, and the Cangju Mountain is still cool. Liu Yunlie prepared a tea set in the gazebo on the hillside, and poured water with his sleeves folded, looking very leisurely. If it weren't for the many generals behind him, Jiang Xuanjin would have thought that he was a son who rested here after being tired from climbing the mountain.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, why is Lord Ziyang's demeanor still the same?" Seeing him coming, Liu Yunlie tilted his head and smiled, "Brother Yu can't hide his embarrassment due to the wind and dust along the way."
"Lieutenant Liu is modest." Jiang Xuanjin entered the pavilion and sat down indifferently. "In the previous battle on the mountain road, the captain was really imposing."
The emperor fled to Feng Yi, and Liu Yunlie proclaimed himself Captain of the Ten Thousand Army. Although everyone in his army respected him like this, when he heard this title from Jiang Xuanjin's mouth, Liu Yunlie inexplicably felt that there was a hint of sarcasm.
Putting down the teacup, he said: "Ming people don't speak dark words, Your Majesty, you and I are fighting, and those who are injured are soldiers from the Northern Wei Dynasty. Let's stop the war first and join hands to drive back Xiliang, how about it?"
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at him.
Liu Yunlie smiled very honestly: "We can't let Xiliang take advantage of it."
Pointing her fingers on the stone table, Jiang Xuanjin said, "If I remember correctly, the captain's younger sister married a general from Xiliang."
"Hey, don't mention it." The smile on his face stopped, and Liu Yunlie frowned, "At the beginning of the marriage, it was His Majesty who wanted to go his own way, and I couldn't stop it. Now that Xiliang has entered the Wei Dynasty, everyone calls me a traitor My sister, but who knows my suffering? My younger sister is young, and she is determined to be married, and she doesn't want to let her go home. I also got angry and severed the brother-sister relationship with her. Xiliang."
The wind blew over, blowing away some strands of Liu Yunlie's black hair, adding a little desolation to his face.
"I was born as a member of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and I will die as the soul of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Let me watch the Northern Wei Dynasty being occupied by Xiliang people. I am ten thousand unwilling!"
Every word and every sentence is full of pride, and after hearing it, Wu really wants to give him a beat for a big show.
There was a light flash in the ink pupils, and then quickly dimmed. Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips and did not speak.
Liu Yunlie knows him well. One look at his expression and he knew that he was persuaded by himself, and he said quickly: "I originally planned to escort your majesty to Lidu, but who would have thought that your majesty would insist on me sending troops to help the people of Xiliang to break through the capital?" I didn't want to, so His Majesty took Concubine Ning to Feng Yi. Otherwise, why do you think Your Majesty would part ways with me?"
These words are very convincing, Jiang Xuanjin nodded slightly, and asked: "How does the captain want to join hands to fight against the enemy?"
He took out the prepared map and put it on the table. Liu Yunlie pointed it out to him: "Now that the capital is under siege, you and I are east of the capital. If Xiliang attacks us backhandedly, your majesty will be attacked by the enemy. On the contrary, if you and I cease fighting, Ziyang's army returned to the capital from the Changhuai River area, and I led people to rush all the way back from Luoshui, and you and I joined forces in the outskirts of Beijing, which would help Lin Jun and others to drive away the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xiliang."
Eyes brightened, Jiang Xuanjin nodded: "Yes."
Liu Yunlie was overjoyed, and took out his inscription and put it on the table: "Exchange tokens, and use this as proof."
Jiang Xuanjin touched his waist, he was wearing a thick amulet given by Huaiyu.
"I'm sorry." He said, "Mingpei, my lord, was taken to play by two innocent children."
There was a crack in Liu Yunlie's gentle smile.
Taking a deep breath, he gritted his teeth: "If your majesty wants to show off that your wife gave birth to twins, you can just say so."
"The captain is so well-informed?"
nonsense! On the day Li Huaiyu gave birth, this man opened a granary like crazy to release food. The whole Northern Wei Dynasty knew that Lord Ziyang had an amazing daughter-in-law, and he had both children!
Is it amazing! The majestic Lord Ziyang is not afraid of embarrassment if he alarms the world because of such a trivial matter! As if anyone would envy him, hum, he wouldn't be envious!
The blue veins in the forehead are throbbing. Liu Yunlie said: "Congratulations, sir."
"It's not a big deal." Jiang Xuanjin raised the corners of his lips lightly.
With a "click", the teacup in Liu Yunlie's hand shattered.
Just looking at Liu Yunlie's distorted face, Wu Wu thought for a while, he seemed to be in his thirties and had no children. Alas, it's not easy for him to plot against the world. If something unexpected happens, he will kill off all children and grandchildren.
The two chatted for a long time in the pavilion. You come and go, open swords and dark guns, and finally ended the conversation smoothly.
"See you in Kyoto." Liu Yunlie smiled and cupped his fists.
Jiang Xuanjin saluted him back, took Jiuwu and left.
The smile on his face grew bigger and bigger, Liu Yunlie hurried down the mountain, and murmured in a low voice: "It's been so long, it's time for me to win once."
This Cangju Mountain was occupied by Jiang Xuanjin. If he attacked it, he would injure the enemy eight hundred and injure himself a thousand. It would be easy to trick him into going to the capital. When he arrives in the capital, he will understand what it means to be attacked by the enemy!
"Ziyang Lord agreed?" the military adviser asked in surprise.
Liu Yunlie smiled and nodded: "This person is good everywhere, but he trusts others too easily. If he doesn't fall out of the trap I tailored for him, he won't succeed."
With the current truce, the pressure on his side is also much less, and he is comfortable and ready to go on the road. At least he can live a peaceful life for a month. Thinking about it, he feels happy.
However, for some reason, luck was extremely bad on the way to Kyoto, and several military camps of the branch encountered many ambushes. The other party said that they were rebels, and they always intercepted the small backward troops by surprise, and disappeared without a trace.
The number of people lost at one time was only a few hundred, but Liu Yunlie became a little annoyed after the number of times, so he found a city to repair, and continued after the people behind him knew how to learn.
The report said. The speed of Ziyang's army is about the same as theirs, and it is estimated that they will arrive in the suburbs of Beijing three days after them.
Therefore, Liu Yunlie turned around in peace of mind, and cleaned up these groups of unknown people.
When he arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, he was planning to send someone to contact the nearby Xiliang army, but unexpectedly, a large number of soldiers rushed from all around and surrounded them fifty miles east of the suburbs of Beijing.
The thunderous sound of the drums made Liu Yunlie stunned on the horse.
The historians of the Northern Wei Dynasty called this battle the "Battle of the Praying Mantis", because Ziyang's 100,000 troops arrived in Kyoto at an astonishing speed, successfully supported Lord Changlin and Lord Nanping, and quickly swallowed up the west with the momentum of mantis catching cicadas. Liang's 30,000 siege troops turned around and directly met Liu Yunlie, who thought he was a "sorrel" who was rushing this way.
How did Lord Ziyang know the marching route of the Liu army? Later generations never knew, but that battle lasted for half a month, and the suburbs of Beijing were soaked in blood. Lord Ziyang took the lead and killed seven soldiers with a long sword. Eighteen heads greatly inspired the morale of the army.
With this battle as a turning point, Xiliang and Liu Yunlie retreated steadily.
Li Huaiyu waited and waited on the window, but he still couldn't wait for Jiang Xuanjin's letter from home.
She was a little wronged, her eyes were red, she turned her head and asked Qingsi: "Does he miss me at all?"
Qingsi combed her long hair with the comb: "Your Majesty must have thought about it."
"Then why didn't he send me a letter? Even a word is fine." Huaiyu pouted, "I wake up every day looking forward to it, looking forward to it, looking forward to it until dark..."
The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, she hugged her knees and sniffed: "I didn't know before that waiting for someone turned out to be such an uncomfortable thing."
Qingsi didn't know how to comfort her anymore, so she could only bite the bullet and said: "There is good news from the front, Xiliang has already started to withdraw troops out of the country."
"Then what?"
"... Then, the emperor wanted to build a new capital in Feng Yi, but he encountered some resistance and couldn't build it."
"anything else?"
"... Also, your skirt today is pretty." Qingsi turned her head away.
Li Huaiyu pouts. Very angrily hugged the little bastard and the little scourge onto the soft couch, and lined up in a row.
"Mother told you! Your father is such a bastard!" She snapped her fingers and complained to her daughter and daughter, "He is cold, easy to get angry, and not easy to coax when he is angry, and he will be six hundred and seventy when he leaves. Two hours! He still bullied your mother before, he would kill me if he didn’t love me or love me, but now mother is so magnanimous and doesn’t care about it, he doesn’t even give me a letter from the family!”
The little scourge stared at her blankly, and the little bastard vomited a bubble. The expression is very innocent.
Qingsi was very speechless: "Your Highness, this...isn't right?"
"What's wrong, I'm their mother, what I said is right!" Huaiyu continued to sue angrily, from the time when Jiang Xuanjin didn't talk to her while eating, to when he slept with his arm on her neck up.
Qingsi looked out of the window silently, thinking that it would be better for the Lord to come back earlier, and when he came back a few years later, the two children would definitely think that their father was some heinous monster.
Lu Jingxing took time to visit the Princess Mansion, and he was greeted with a resentful face.
He spread his fan and smiled: "The beauty rolled up the beaded curtain, sat deeply and frowned. But seeing the wet tears, who do you hate?"
Li Huaiyu turned his lips and said, "I will hate anyone whose grandmother comes to provoke me!"
Lu Jingxing: "..."
Women are really unreasonable!
"Why do you come here when you are free?" Huaiyu squinted at him, "Isn't business very busy recently?"
"Yes." Lu Jingxing said. "Thanks to your lord, the situation in various places has stabilized. I think that money is really easy to earn."
Li Huaiyu rolled his eyes at him: "Only you, Shopkeeper Lu, can say that."
Wars are raging, business everywhere is difficult, and many merchants have gone bankrupt and fled. He is the only one who has the courage to buy in large quantities when the shops are unattended. As soon as the situation stabilizes, he sits down and raises prices, and the money rushes into his pockets. Flow, so that other people's eyes are red and there is nothing they can do about him.
"Here, your lord has helped me a lot, so I have to give you a gift in return." Lu Jingxing waved his hand and asked the person behind him to hand over a long sandalwood box, "Take it."
Huaiyu took it and glanced at it, and found that it was a piece of fine jade, carved with a handsome man. This man was wearing a fox fur cloak, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, with a straight back and a strong character.
No need for him to say who it was, Li Huaiyu looked at it twice and his eyes turned red.
"Did you do it on purpose?" She gritted her teeth, "You know I miss him so much, why did you send this here?"
"Hey, don't get excited." As soon as the fan closed, Lu Jingxing said with a smile, "This was consecrated in Hanshan Temple, the host said it. This jade has spirituality, you just need to hold it for seven or forty-nine days, and the jade carving people will appear in front of you."
Only a fool would believe this kind of lie!
Li Huaiyu stared at it for a long time, but couldn't help asking: "Really?"
Lu Jingxing took a deep look at her and nodded, "Really."
Holding the jade carving in his arms, Huaiyu said viciously to him: "If it's fake, I'll break your leg!"
Thus, Qingsi found that her highness no longer sighed every day, but just carried the jade carving everywhere, eating and sleeping, even taking a bath, and even wanted to take it to the toilet once, but she tried her best to stop it.
Aside from being funny, she felt a little distressed.
Jiang Xuanjin held the brush and looked at the letter paper in front of her, hesitating for a long time.
"Master." Chengxu came in and reported, "Liu Yunlie fled to Feng Yi."
After a slight pause, he put down the pen in his hand, stood up and asked, "Can you catch up?"
Shaking his head in a false way.
Liu Yunlie's army was defeated like a mountain, and he was pursued by various princes. For some reason, he turned his head and went straight to Feng Yi, and no one could stop him.
Eyes darkened slightly, Jiang Xuanjin was silent for a long time.
Li Huailin is the orthodox emperor, even if he has no real power at the moment, he still holds the jade seal.
"That's all." He said, "Even if you can't catch up, let's go and see."
