Last night, the back was sore after carrying the clearance, but today she took the children to incense for a whole day. Gu Jiao was sympathetic to her husband, and consciously put the little Taotao in the drawer back into two boxes.
I don't know where my husband's toughness came from, but he walked over in a daze, opened the small medicine box, and took out Xiao Taotao, who was put back by her.
One box, two boxes, three boxes.
That's right, he also aggressively added a box!
Gu Jiao: "..."
Do you have any misconceptions about your own duration
The two spent an indescribably enchanting night that didn't stop until dawn.
And the couple who were supposed to go to the Guogong's mansion on the second day of the lunar new year couldn't get up this time.
…
The three Xiaodouding are sensible children. They seldom make trouble with their parents, usually uncle Shangguanqing. Now that Xuanyuanxi is back, the three of them have changed to make trouble with him.
Xuanyuan Xi experienced the despair of being dominated by Xiaodouding again, and was dragged from the bed by the bun army led by Xiao Yan at dawn.
Children are so energetic.
The three want to ride a horse today.
The main reason was that Xiao Yan wanted to ride. She voted for three people by herself, but Xiao Cong's objection was invalid.
Xuanyuan Xi took three little tails to find Little Eleven.
Little Eleven is not in the stable at the moment. He went to the Heifeng King to flirt with him, but he was chased all the way by the Heifeng King, and fled to the frozen lake and fell directly into the splits!
Heifeng Wang was the same age as Gu Jiao. He was twenty-four this year, which was an old age for a war horse.
Ordinary war horses began to enter old age at the age of sixteen. The horse's back gradually sagged, and its muscles atrophied and became weak. However, these phenomena did not seem to appear in Batu King.
It's still strong and robust.
Little Eleven was beaten badly.
After going out for a year, I thought my wings were hard, but when I came back, I realized that I was naive.
Little Eleven is aggrieved.
However, if you look closely, you can still see the difference.
In the past, the Black Wind King pushed it and beat it, his face was not blushing and he was not breathing, but now he was gasping for a long time after the beating.
Little Eleven stood up with a messed up horsehair, came to Heifeng King's side, and rubbed his head against it.
As if asking, eh, are you alright
The Black Wind King walked away proudly.
After all, its back is not as strong as it was when it was young.
Over the past seven years, countless war horses from various countries have challenged its authority. It has never been afraid of challenges. It has defended the honor of Heifengqi with absolute strength and created its own legend.
It walked in the cold and windy snow. Although it was panting heavily, it was still graceful in its steps and calm in its posture, with an innate killing spirit and a domineering king.
Little Eleven silently followed behind it, stepping on its footprints mischievously.
The Black Wind King turned back.
Little Eleven looked at it blankly, opened his mouth at it, and smiled!
The Black Wind King silently retracted his gaze and continued to move forward proudly.
…
In the first month, the palace was immersed in a cheerful atmosphere of the Spring Festival, but suddenly one day, a message from the border of Zhao Kingdom broke the atmosphere.
The western border of Zhao Kingdom was broken, and more than ten cities fell!
"Did Liang Guo do it?" Gu Jiao asked the guard who came to deliver the letter.
The western border of Zhao State is actually bordering Yan State, but Yan State did not do such a thing, nor would it do such a thing, so only Liang State remained.
Liang State is located in the southwest of Zhao State, but it is farther than Yan State and separated by a long waterway.
The guard hurriedly said: "I'm wrong, I'm wrong, it's not the western border, it's the eastern border!"
"Chen country?" Gu Jiao still remembers the battle of Yuegucheng defending the city eight years ago, "How could Chen country fight with Zhao country?"
Is Yuan Tang crazy
Two years ago, Emperor Chen died and Yuan Tang ascended the throne.
He once offended Prince Bo and fell out with Concubine Rong's mother family, the Rong family. His situation in Chen State was not as peaceful as it seemed. Where did he come from to attack Zhao State carefully
Besides, Yuan Tang had no reason to do this.
The guard bit his head and said, "It seems... it's not the army of the state of Chen, but of the state of Wei!"
There were two doubts in Gu Jiao's heart: Why did the Wei State attack the Zhao State? Why did the army of Wei State successfully enter the State of Chen
The guard said again: "In addition, there is one more thing, the name of that Liu Xiang, the shadow department found out, it is Liu Yisheng."
Although there had been speculation, Gu Jiao was still shocked when it came time to confirm.
Zhao Guo probably never dreamed that the Liu family orphan who was bullied and beaten by Quan Zhaodu like a rat crossing the street would actually take Wei Guo's forces to break through the border of Zhao Guo in one fell swoop eight years later, winning twelve seats in a row. city!
Gu Jiao murmured: "He is Yuan Tang's cousin. His army entered the Chen country, and Yuan Tang would sell his face. However, Zhao Guo's troops are not vegetarian, why did they fall so far?"
The guard sighed: "Speaking of which, it was also his coincidence that the Marquis of Xuanping returned to the feudal land with Princess Xinyang and was not in the court. The old Marquis of Ding'an was already old, and the most suitable general to fight against was the new commander of the Gu family's army, Gu Changqing. And Tang Yueshan, the Marshal of the world's military and horses."
Gu Jiao frowned and said, "The two of them have a good chance of winning."
The guard said: "It's a big deal. The problem doesn't lie with the two of them. The Emperor of the Zhao Kingdom followed the example of the Yan Kingdom and let the crown prince go on expeditions on behalf of the emperor to strengthen the army's heart. Never thought..."
Gu Jiao said for him, "I never thought that the prince was a scumbag, who fell into other people's tricks, and gave him a blind command when he was in battle.
The guard nodded: "That's the reason."
"Who is the traitor?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Fourth Prince... Your Majesty," the guard replied.
Gu Jiao almost didn't have this number in her memory. It was only now that he mentioned him that she remembered that she had met the fourth prince when she first came to Zhaodu.
Liu Yisheng was ill, and the fourth prince was dissatisfied with his own treatment of Liu Yisheng. He asked her for trouble in the street, and then accidentally bumped into Xuanping Hou, the fourth prince was good at giving up.
However, the presence of this person is not strong, and it is not a big deal, so Gu Jiao turned her head and forgot about him.
Who would have thought that after ten years of dormancy, he would actually stab the prince like this.
Gu Jiao asked, "He colluded with Wei Jun?"
The guard replied, "Yes."
Gu Jiao said lightly, "He used to despise Liu Yisheng the most, but now he is collaborating with Liu Yisheng, which is ironic."
"Isn't it?" the guard sighed, "But he didn't get anything good. After the incident, Liu Xiang turned his head and stabbed him out. He also sent all the evidence of collaborating with the enemy and treason to Zhaodu and handed it over to the emperor. The emperor became ill on the spot, and now it is Empress Dowager Zhuang who is handling the affairs of the state."
Speaking of this, the guard couldn't help but sigh, "Liu Yisheng is really cruel!"
First, he tempted the fourth prince to cooperate with the enemy and treason, and then he used the hands of the fourth prince to confuse the prince, so that the soldiers of the three armies would be chilled, and the people of the world would be chilled.
In the end, a knife stabbed into the heart of the emperor.
No wonder it was able to help the King of Wei unify the thirteen ministries, this method, this strategy, is too terrifying.
The guard sighed again: "After this war, whether the Zhao Kingdom is destroyed or not, the future of these two sons is equivalent to abolished."
The common people will not accept a prince who is collaborating with the enemy and treason, nor will they submit to a prince who has lost half of the kingdom.
"Who is the general of the army?" Gu Jiao asked.
The guard said: "Gu Changqing. The prince was captured. He desperately rescued the prince and was seriously injured."
He paused, and then stopped.
Gu Jiao continued on for him: "If the emperor wants to protect the prince, he must find a suitable scapegoat and say that everything was made by that person. There is no more suitable person than the commander-in-chief of the Gu family army. And if the emperor really does this Now, that is to make Gu Jiajun also divorced from him, and he will be completely alone."
The more the guard thought about it, the more shuddered he felt: "This guy named Liu Yisheng... the calculation is really deep!"
…
Xuanyuan Xi rushed into Gu Jiao's study as soon as he heard this: "Jiao Jiao! I'll fight! Take back the city of Zhao Kingdom!"
He grew up in Zhao State, which is also his home.
"You are waiting for my news in Shengdu!"
However, this time, Gu Jiao didn't let him go alone.
…
In February, Zhao Kingdom lost another city.
Gu Changqing was wounded and fought against Gu Chengfeng, leading the Gu family's army to retake the two cities.
And the Wei army doesn't seem to care about their plunder in the rear, just push towards the hinterland of Zhao Kingdom, if you capture one, I will take another one, and see who is faster!
Gu Jiao confronted Wei Jun under such circumstances.
It was a cold spring morning, the sky was gloomy, and the clouds were dense, and the two armies were fighting with each other on the banks of the Licheng River.
Gu Jiao, dressed in red and black armor, rode icyly on the horseback of Heifeng Wang, who was in all directions, and beside her were Xiao Shi and Xuanyuan Xi who were also wearing battle armor.
Said to be the army, but in fact there were only two of them.
The rest of the people were still on the road, and their war horses were not as fast as the Black Wind King and the Little Eleven.
Wei Jun is happy, they are 5,000 troops, isn't it just a game to capture two people alive
"Who is coming?" asked a general of the Wei army. His surname was Mo, and he was a young general in his thirties.
Xuanyuan Xi rode a horse and took a step forward, the young man said wildly: "My sister's name is also worthy of you to ask? Let Liu Yisheng come out!"
Gu Jiao and Xuanyuan Xi have a very strong aura, but they are too young, Gu Jiao is already twenty-four, but her face is tender, and she looks less than twenty.
Not to mention Xuanyuan Xi, a thirteen-year-old child cannot pretend to be an adult.
In addition, the two were almost single-handedly, so General Mo did not take them seriously.
Gu Jiao said lightly, "I want to see Liu Yisheng."
General Mo sneered disdainfully, "Did you see Prime Minister Liu when you saw him? What kind of thing are you! I might as well leave my words here, even if the prince of your Zhao Kingdom is here, our lords are also missing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a white shadow flashed from behind the Wei army and rushed towards Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao didn't dodge.
Xuanyuan Xi's first reaction was a sneak attack, and just as he was about to open his bow and arrow to shoot him to death, Gu Jiao gently squeezed his wrist.
Xiaobaiying rushed into Gu Jiao's arms.
Gu Jiao hugged the fleshy little dumpling and asked in surprise, "Xiao Shi?"
"Meow~" It rubbed against Gu Jiao.
Nine years ago, it was fostered by Gu Jiao in Liu Yisheng's house. At that time, it was just a small kitten, but now it is several times bigger and heavy, almost filling Gu Jiao's arms.
"Ah, it, is it Xiao Shi?" Xuanyuan Xi was stunned.
He had only heard of Xiao Shi from Jiaojiao's mouth, but he had not really met him yet.
Wei Jun was even more surprised than him.
They had already recognized that cat as their prime minister's beloved pet. The prime minister loved cats like his life and took it everywhere. It was the only guy who dared to tear the prime minister's book into shreds without worrying about being punished.
It's squeamish.
Super fierce, super difficult to serve, and does not like to be close to people.
Except for the Prime Minister, no one can touch it.
I heard that the emperor of Chen State was scratched by it.
At this moment it actually... throws a hug to a stranger
Are they dazzled
Or did the young man use some means to deceive it
General Mo slammed out the sword from his waist: "Let go of the prime minister's favorite pet! Otherwise, he will be killed without mercy!"
"stop!"
A cold voice sounded from behind, and General Mo was startled.
The Wei army automatically gave way, and a man in Wei army armor slowly rode out.
Xuanyuan Xi did not know him.
Gu Jiao felt that he looked familiar, and after watching for a few seconds, she frowned, "Jun Xiuhan?"
Jun Xiuhan is a student of the Canaan Academy of Yan Kingdom. Eight years ago, he was Gu Jiao's competitor when he was selected as the commander of the Black Wind Rider.
He successfully advanced to the final round, but he took the initiative to hand over his bamboo tube to Gu Jiao in the bamboo forest, and said to Gu Jiao, "I owe someone a favor, and now I will give it back to you."
Gu Jiao never understood who he was talking about.
Is it—
Jun Xiu Hance came to Gu Jiao, Xuanyuanxi stopped him with his spear, "Don't get too close to my sister!"
Hearing that elder sister, Jun Xiuhan's eyes were not surprised, he looked at Gu Jiao calmly, and said lightly, "Commander Xiao, we meet again, Master Liu wants to see you."
Once Liu Xiang's hole is filled, it is almost done.
Shangguan Yan's emotional drama will not be detailed, leaving a little space for everyone's imagination.
Recently, I have had a cold, my brain is a bit muddy, and I am a little reluctant to finish writing it, so I always dawdled, but no matter how much I dawdled, there will always be a day to say goodbye to everyone.
I really really like Jiaojiao, she is my favorite heroine, and I also deeply love other characters in the text, A Heng, Jing Kong, Long Yi, Auntie, Big Brother, Xiao Fengfeng... Too much too much, no way, my tears have been a little low recently.
good night, see you tomorrow.
