The concubine of the Southern Dynasty was expelled, and the world was in an uproar.
Inside Zixiang Pass, there is a big tent in the handsome camp.
The emperor of the Northern Dynasty, who was discussing the next step of war strategy with the generals in the camp, suddenly received this news, his deep face suddenly changed, his eyes were sharp, and he stared straight at the person kneeling on the ground, "Is the news true?"
The guard replied: "Report to Your Majesty, it is absolutely true!"
A bearded general laughed infinitely after hearing this: "Zongzheng Wuyou didn't even want the country because of a woman, but he didn't expect him to leave Jiang for less than two months, and the woman couldn't bear the loneliness. Such a big green hat. Haha, he must be mad!"
Zongzheng wrinkled his brows wryly, and glanced over with deep and unpredictable eyes, gloomy and angry, obviously displeased. A lieutenant next to him hastily shot the gloating general with his hand. The general was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that the imperial concubine of the Southern Dynasty was His Majesty's former wife, and he couldn't forget the reason why His Majesty set up a harem Princess Le Chang. He was startled, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze, and he stopped quickly. "Low your head.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, the other general changed the subject and said: "Your Majesty, we won the last battle when the Southern Emperor returned to the Southern Army. The Southern Army's morale was unstable. Now, they are retreating to Yunguan. Are we going to take this opportunity to send troops in one fell swoop? Take back the lost city?"
A general added: "Yes, Your Majesty, after this blow, the Southern Emperor must have no intention of fighting. We should take advantage of the high morale of our army and annihilate them in one go."
The counselor who sat on the seat shook his head and said, "That's not right. Although the Southern Emperor is in Jiangdu, the Ninth Prince and the temporary commander of the Southern Army, Wuxiangzi, should not be underestimated! Moreover, the people in Wuyinlou are too powerful. Although they only have 7,000 people, But it is equivalent to 70,000 elite soldiers. Every time we fight, we will lose a lot of soldiers. If we continue to fight like this, we will lose both sides. Even if we win in the end, we will still be wounded in our vitality. Your Majesty, I believe that attacking by force is not the best policy."
A general asked, "According to what the military adviser said, what is the best policy?" The counselor said, "There is a valley more than 20 miles south of Yunguan. The road is narrow and long, and the southern army must pass through when transporting grain The road, there are huge rocks and mountains on the left and right sides, and the snow is hard to melt. The heavy snow a few days ago will not melt for more than a month. During this time, there must be no traffic. We might as well wait for them to feed Exhaust it, put it in the city, so that it won't cost a single soldier, and win without fighting, that's the best policy." The counselor looked at the emperor who was in charge, and wanted to ask the emperor's opinion, but he saw the emperor's eyebrows drooping , I don't know where to look. And there was unconcealable anger and confusion in the expression between his brows. He couldn't help calling: "Your Majesty!!!
Zongzheng had no way to recover. At this moment, his mind was full of the injured woman. He glanced at them and said indifferently: "You all stand down, and we will discuss this matter later."
The generals looked at each other and took orders to withdraw, while the guard who came to report the news was left behind.
There was a heavy snowfall in Zixiangguan in February, and the weather was still very cold. Zongzheng Wuchou stood up and paced in the room wearing a big cloak. The initial shock made him uneasy, and then he calmed down and thought about it carefully.
Others who don't know Rongle may believe such absurd rumors, but he doesn't even need to think about it, if Rongle is that kind of casual woman, then she would already be his woman! Who was it that framed her and ruined her reputation? What is the purpose? How could Zongzheng Wuyou believe something that he didn't even believe? All kinds of doubts, he was entangled in his heart, turned around and ordered: "Tell me the ins and outs of the whole thing in detail."
"Yes, Your Majesty. On that day... from the day when the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard discovered that the imperial concubine had a man in her bed, he started talking about it until the imperial concubine was injured and left the palace alone.
Zongzheng finished listening silently, his face darkened, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. It seems that the person who set up this situation is not targeting Rong Le, but Zongzheng Wuyou. With such a clumsy method, that person must know Zongzheng Wuyou and Rong Le very well. Their purpose is not to frame Rong Le, nor is it to drive a wedge between the emperor and concubine of the Southern Dynasty. They are sure that Zongzheng Wuyou will not believe Rong Le He thought that he would definitely come forward to protect her. In that case, the Southern Emperor would lose the morale of the army, ministers and people. At that time, they would stir up a mutiny and set off a rebellion to achieve their ulterior purpose. But he never expected that Zongzheng Wuyou would break their situation in such a direct way, making their second moves useless. This time's strategy is even more despicable than the last time he spread rumors about the white-haired evildoer to incite soldiers, and the methods are so similar! As for the person who uses this trick, he no longer needs to guess.
Zongzheng's face became more and more ugly. Zongzheng Wuyou broke the situation in this way, maybe it was a way to protect her, but this way hurt her! It not only ruined her reputation and hurt her body, but also hurt her heart. After Concubine Yun Gui's broken bones and ashes, in Zongzheng Wuyou's heart, isn't she the most important thing? He made various speculations in his mind.
Zongzheng Wuyou, in order to get revenge, you treat this woman for whom you could have given up your country, your dignity, and even your life? The power of hatred is indeed infinitely powerful. And Rongle, Zongzheng Wuyou like this, would you still love him
"How bad is she hurt?" After pondering for a while, he softly agreed with this sentence, just five words, which secretly tied his emotions. That sword, he believed that she didn't commit suicide, but to let her remember the pain, and despair? She is not a person who takes life lightly.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the stabbed was in the abdomen, and a lot of blood flowed out. Probably... the injury was serious!"
Zongzheng Wuchou's eyes were gloomy, and there was deep distress and worry in his eyes. He paced back and forth in the spacious tent, and the dull footsteps revealed the emotions in his heart at the moment. A pair of hands, clenched and loosened, loosened and clenched.
Rong Le, where will she go after leaving Nanchao? She loathed him so much, and also hated Emperor Qiyun, now, being expelled from the Southern Dynasty by the person she loves so much, where else could she go
Zongzheng Wuchou took a deep breath, suppressed the suffocation and confusion in his heart, turned around and said: "Quickly check where she is staying, and report it immediately after finding it. There must be no mistakes."
The guard hurriedly withdrew as ordered, and when they reached the door, Zongzheng seemed to have thought of something, and shouted again: "Wait a minute. Send more people to the land adjacent to Chenfeng Kingdom in the Southern Dynasty."
"Follow the order."
In February of Dust Wind Country, the weather has already warmed up. The royal racecourse is vast and vast. On the endless barren grass, fresh green shoots emerged. The calm sky was as blue as clean, and groups of horses galloped wantonly in the racecourse, with strong bodies and strong hooves.
Ning Qianyi, the king of Cangzhong who was sleepy walking by the racecourse, was wearing a big tiger fur fur. He was heroic and stood upright. His heroic and handsome face was a little more solemn and calm than before. He was followed by several ministers, looking at the racecourse together, all in a very good mood. The middle-aged man who once went to Lintian Kingdom with King Cangzhong laughed loudly, "Your Majesty, this batch of horses is better than the previous ones. This year's horse selection is going to be lively!"
A minister said with a smile: "Yes, except for the Southern Dynasty, all the other fourteen countries have sent letters of credence. This time, the ones who came here may not be the former envoys, but the emperors of various countries."
When mentioning the Southern Dynasty, a military official immediately changed his face, his face was angry, and said: "If the emperor of the Southern Dynasty dares to send someone, I will tell him to come and never return." The reason why this person was so angry was because he was sent to The envoys of the Southern Dynasty were his cousins.
The etiquette of monarchs and ministers in Dust Wind Country is not as strict as other countries, but much more casual. When the other ministers saw that the military official was so excited, they tried to comfort him. They also expressed that they must not cooperate with the Southern Dynasties.
Cangzhong Wang Nong raised his eyebrows slightly, listening to their discussion, he did not express his opinion. He just took a few steps forward, with his hands behind his back, looking forward.
Southern Dynasties, a place related to that woman.
"Let's go back to the palace to hold a banquet." He let out a heavy breath towards the sky, suppressing the regret and loss in his heart, and showed others a hearty and heroic spirit. After speaking loudly, he turned and led the ministers back to the palace.
The Dustwind King's Palace has a majestic exterior and a magnificent interior. The Palace of Carnival, gold bricks and green tiles, carved beams and painted buildings. King Cangzhong sat at the same table with several ministers, and ordered them to prepare songs, dances, wine and delicacies. In the Dust Wind Country, it is common for the monarch and his ministers to have a feast together.
In the palace, on a large velvet carpet, more than a dozen beauties were barefoot and bent, dancing to the cheerful rhythm of Guqin, silk and bamboo.
All the ministers were delighted to see it, shook their heads, happily hummed a familiar tune to the songs of the singers, and the atmosphere was very joyous and harmonious.
The king of Cangzhong sits on the dragon seat, accompanied by two concubines on the left and right. Every time he heard the sound of the piano, he would always think of the half song of high mountains and flowing water in the other palace of Yunlian Mountain in Lintian Kingdom, and he couldn't help but feel sad. The image of that woman in my mind is still lingering.
A year ago, as soon as he returned to China, he heard that she was beautiful and white-haired. He was heartbroken and even assembled the army to rescue her, but before he left, he heard that she was missing. He sent people to inquire around, only to learn that she had become the imperial concubine of the Southern Dynasty, and she was very affectionate with the Southern Emperor. He had already seen that she was in harmony with the Northern Emperor, but in fact she was with the Prince Li at that time. Now, she can finally be with her The one he loves stays together, he should bless her and be happy for her, but the regret and loss in his heart can never be filled. Over the past year, he has been paying attention to all kinds of things about her all the time.
Since ascending to the throne, the country's affairs have been smooth, and there are three thousand beauties in his harem, and no woman can replace her in his heart. That woman has just become the only regret in his life of more than 20 years!
The world is uncertain, and wars are raging. Although the Dust Wind Kingdom is not big, it is famous for its war horses, and has become the target of all nations vying to win over. He has no intention of competing for the world, as long as he finds the most powerful partner from among these countries to ensure the stability and smoothness of his country after the world is settled, that's enough. If that woman can be by his side, then his life can almost be called complete. It's a pity, but I'm sorry
"My lord, do you have something on your mind?" Concubine Han on the left stepped forward and asked their young and handsome king with a smile.
Cangzhong Wang was slightly stunned, then passed her upstairs, and said with a hearty smile: "In this harem, Concubine Han is the only one with a delicate mind, especially her eyes are the most powerful!"
The tea concubine on the right was not happy, and said with a sour tone: "Is the king saying that the concubine is careless?"
Cangzhong Wang laughed, "My concubine is jealous!" After saying that, he stretched out his hand and came over. Concubine Cen immediately laughed, "What's on your mind, tell me and let my concubine help you share it."
Cangzhong Wang raised his thick eyebrows, and his eyes sank unconsciously. He withdrew his arm, picked up the wine bowl on the table, and without speaking, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, his movements were crisp.
At this time, a guard came to report, "Your Majesty, there is news from a messenger from the Southern Dynasty."
Cangzhong Wang's eyes lit up, and he said, "Quickly tell me." Everything about the Southern Dynasty must be related to her.
The guard hurriedly reported the news from the courier lurking in the Southern Dynasty in detail,-
"nonsense!"
Before the guard could finish speaking, Cangzhong King had already stood up, his face so excited that he overturned the table in front of him. That woman is the most holy place in his heart, it is impossible for someone to say that she is in the harem!
He looked angrily, and said: "Princess Rong Le is definitely not that kind of woman! The Southern Emperor is so confused, listens to slander, hurts the princess so much, and drives her out of the Southern Dynasty, it is really abominable!"
The strong anger radiating from his body frightened the second concubine. They raised their heads and looked at him in astonishment. This was the first time they saw the king lose such a temper, and the reason for his anger was because of the concubine of another emperor! It can be seen that the weight of that woman is in the king's heart. The woman's intuition made them uneasy, and they couldn't help thinking sadly: If this woman is found and brought to the palace, will the king pay more attention to them in the future
The middle-aged man who had seen Man Yao had a happy expression on his face, and said: "Your Majesty, please don't get angry, this way, it will be a good thing for Your Majesty!"
King Cangzhong was taken aback for a moment, then stretched his thick eyebrows, pointed at the guard and said, "I don't care how many people you mobilize, go and find out the whereabouts of Princess Rong Le immediately!"
"yes!"
Yancheng, the place adjacent to the Chenfeng Kingdom and the Southern Dynasties, belongs to the territory of the Chenfeng Kingdom. The Linxi Inn is located in a remote place in the west of Yancheng, built against a dense jungle. The inn is divided into upper and lower floors, and the layout is relatively simple. A room on the second floor facing the dense forest is called the upper room, but the room can only be described as simple.
At night, it was very quiet around Ke Jian, only the sound of the wind blowing through the dense forest could be heard.
Man Yao was lying on the bed with all her clothes on, with her eyes open, she looked at the dark and gloomy roof. The bed board is very hard, chrome makes people hurt. She has stayed here alone for more than ten days. The wound on her abdomen is not deep. She has already bandaged it on the way, and she should recover after a few days of recuperation. But for some reason, I always feel more and more tired recently, but I am obviously very sleepy, but I can't fall asleep no matter what. If it's okay for a day or two, but this situation has lasted for more than a month, she should ask Xiao Ke to take a look at it before leaving the palace. The last time Xiao Ke helped her feel her pulse was when she returned to the palace from Yuzhou City.
"Dong dong dong..." The sound insulation of the room is very poor, and there are stairs outside the door. "As long as someone goes up and down the stairs, the voice is very clear.
Feeling restless for no reason, she frowned, sat up slowly, leaned against the head of the bed, and let her hands hang lazily. look like. A soreness suddenly surged in her heart, recalling his anger, his hatred, his pain, his helplessness, his struggle, his disbelief, and his pretended indifference and determination... That day Every movement, every look, every word of his is in her mind, in front of her eyes, and even more in her heart. She gathered the thin quilt covering her body, closed her eyes, and suddenly felt out of breath. Every time she thought of him, her breathing became so difficult.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock!" The three voices were neither soft nor loud, and the slow ending was elongated in the quiet night, and it lasted for a long time.
She immediately opened her eyes and looked at the door vigilantly. It was so late, who could it be? Counting the days, the person she was waiting for should have almost arrived! However, it shouldn't be late at night! With a puzzled expression on her face, she got up, put on her coat in a calm manner, smoothed her hair with her hands, and tidied it up before walking towards the door.
During this period, the person outside the door neither knocked nor called for anyone. Except for the first three knocks, there was no sound at all. The person stood quietly at the door and waited, seemingly very patient. .
She became more and more confused, and unconsciously clenched the sword in her hand. It's hard to say what else this guest was looking for, only these two doors were closed absolutely tightly, without leaving any gaps.
She raised her ears to the door and listened to the movement outside, except for the sound of light and well-proportioned breathing, there was nothing else. She frowned and stood up straight, feeling that the man was very, very close to the door. And the aura emanating from that person has an indescribably familiar feeling.
She hesitated slightly, but finally raised her hand.
The door was slowly opened, and when the man standing at the door came into view, her pupils shrank, her face changed suddenly, and she blurted out: "Why are you?"
