Tan'er's sudden shout made everyone in the yard startled. Yunzhu and Jin'er ran down from the building on the side. In the next room, Xiaochan, who was still in confinement, followed Xing'er. came out. Ning Xi slapped this way, fell down in the yard, and then got up again with a confused look on her face.
"What's wrong..." Yun Zhu ran over and hugged Ning Xi, slapping the dust on him.
"To the battlefield..."
"Don't make trouble, go back! Xiaochan, I told you not to get out of bed..."
In the sound of Ning Yi's shouts, in the room, the newborn child was crying, and more commotion was still outside, Su Wending and others also ran to the gate of the courtyard, looking this way. Tan'er was pressed on the door by Ning Yi, and she just said, "Xiang Gong wants to go north, he's going to the battlefield." Hearing Yunzhu and the others' faces fade away, only Jin'er said hesitantly, "This time... can we go? Is it..." She finally knew that she was a concubine, but when Tan'er was there, she didn't say much, just stared at Ning Yi.
"I'm here to do business, not to go to the battlefield..."
In Ning Yi's defense, a voice came from the courtyard gate: "Second sister, I'm going too. We are here for the country and the people, you shouldn't stop brother-in-law." It was Su Wenfang who spoke. Before he could finish his sentence, Su Tan'er turned his head sharply: "Shut up, you are going to have a child in your family, and your younger brother and sister are three months pregnant!"
Su Wenfang raised his head: "Everyone has a small family. It's a man's duty to protect his family and the country. It's a good thing for me to go north with my brother-in-law!"
Ning Yi waved and shouted, "Shut up for me."
Su Wenfang was a little aggrieved: "Brother-in-law..." Beside him, a woman who was recently diagnosed to be pregnant was pulling on his sleeve. Her face turned red and then white, she looked at Ning Yi, then at her husband Su Wenfang, her eyes were complicated for a while, but she didn't make a sound. When Ning Yi was in the courtyard, she explained a few more words, and the cry suddenly sounded from the courtyard gate. When he got up, Su Wending's wife choked and asked, "You, are you going too?"
"Man protects the family and the country! These things are not for you women to talk about. Put away the face of this crying little daughter. Otherwise, I won't take care of you..."
Then the cry was contagious. A louder sound rang out.
The corners of Ning Yi's eyes jumped wildly, and he rushed to the gate of the courtyard: "Shut up for me! What's going on now! It's just a walk north, why are you crying! I'm looking forward to your husband's death!"
He has absolute majesty in this family. The harsh words came out. The surrounding family members were scared and restrained. Wen Ding Wenfang raised his head proudly: "That's right, who said you would die, you bitches..."
"Wen Ding Wenfang, shut up for me too!" Ning Yi pointed at them. "Let them cry! How can you not let them cry! Crying for you is because I worry about you, and I have you in my heart! If you can see this, just keep it in my heart... What to do with her, see if your second sister won't deal with you!"
Ning Yi's indiscriminate reprimand is definitely inconsistent and double-sided, but everyone is not easy to say anything. After he finished swearing, he took a breath, looked around, and his tone was really serious.
"The family is going to go out to do things, worrying is the right thing to do, but your second sister thinks too much, it is not so dangerous! In the past, didn't I kill Liangshan with dozens of people? We are just doing logistics on the periphery of the battlefield, it will not be true I'm going to the battlefield. This is to make you feel relieved to tell you the truth. The Jurchens are amazing, and I don't face them face-to-face, so what are you afraid of!"
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment: "But no matter what we are going to do! The Jurchen is fighting, and we are all going to meet the enemy! Your husbands and brothers used to be in Jiangning City, and they were a group of people who only knew You scoundrel of eating, drinking, and having fun! That guy Wenfang is still a bit sissy now... but they are men now! They are upright and upright! If you have children, you can tell your children who their father is and what happened to them! You guys You can be responsible and proud, and I will be responsible for bringing them back safely! When they go out, they can be a pillar and support a big family!"
"Okay!" Ning Yi raised his hand, "I don't have much time, I have to leave in the next two days. If we want to be together, we can be together. If you have anything to say, if you want to cry to them, go back and cry. Come on. Don't make a mess of people here, it's the same as before, how can it be so exaggerated! Go back! I still have my own people to coax... "
He sighed, turned around, and looked at a few people in the yard: "Okay, if you want to cry and show me, let's go to the house and cry, shall we?"
Jin Er wiped her eyes and sniffed: "You'll be fine, I won't cry." A smile appeared on her face, but the tears kept falling, Ning Yi walked over helplessly and hugged her. Live on her body, and then pull everyone back to the room...
*************
Beimen Street, Dai County. The noise of fighting in the city came from all directions. Wanyan Xiyin rode a warhorse, with his arms on the hilt of the sword.
Assassination came suddenly.
The sudden condensed murderous aura seemed to thin out the light of the sky and blocked the sound. A silent edge with a piercing murderous intention shot out from a small building that collapsed on the side of the road. When everyone reacted, they had already shot straight at Yan Xiyin. In front of the war horse, the edge was cut down in the air.
Among Wanyan Xiyin's bodyguards, one person suddenly shot arrows from the side and rear, and the other person threw a spear. As the sharp edge slashed down, he shouted sharply: "Wow—" The shrill and eerie sound was like the cry of a night crow.
The cloak on Wanyan Xiyin's body roared and unfolded in the air. On the street in the afternoon, the warhorse stood up, and it seemed like a cloud of sunlight broke out in the air. With a "ha" sound from Wanyan Xiyin, he drew his sword and slashed, and the golden sword of Yuan Wang brought a golden light and collided with the mournful and deadly breath in the air.
The attacking assassin was slashed and flew away, but he was an ugly dwarf with a small stature, with a weapon in his hand like a scythe like a scythe. Extremely sharp. He rolled on the ground a few times, and just stood up, and the guns were already coming.
"what-"
He shouted, his body flew back, the arrow shot through his shoulder, the spear followed, and he slashed with a knife, only a moment later, he was forced into the dead corner of the roadside ruins, and several spears pierced through his body. Almost picked him up. He held the sickle in his hand, looked at Wanyan Xiyin, blood came out of his mouth, and he was still shouting "Ah-". But then. The strange cry also disappeared.
This dwarf is small in stature. The strength is not enough, but he has been practicing martial arts and has practiced the way of assassination to the peak. I just hope that I can kill the general with one blow. Just miss a hit and die.
Wanyan Xiyin rode on the horse and looked at the corpse: "It's a Lulin man from the Wu Dynasty. He's very skilled. After breaking the city, hang him on the city gate."
He put away the heavy sword in his hand, and the guards led him away.
On the third day of the eighth lunar month, in any case, this afternoon, the blade that Wu Chao Lulin people assassinated was handed to the top generals of the Jin Kingdom for the first time. It's just that the identity of the assassin was not known to many people for a while.
Not long after, the southern gate of Dai County was completely captured by Jurchen, and the massacre of the city began. And all that happened in the north was just a little prelude to the invasion of the Jin people to the south. Soon after, they swept down and invaded the ancient city of Xinzhou...
****************
Although she consciously resisted Ning Yi's Bei up and down, but the real thing is coming, women can do nothing but cry and worry, there is no more choice.
For Ning Yi, although he once had the idea that even if the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, as long as the side is in a corner, it has been overturned at this time. When the situation is really overwhelmed, he has no more options to go to. pick. In the end, I can only appease the most important family members with the greatest patience.
In any case, the ease and peace of the past year, from the moment Tan'er cried, was indeed cut off by something. Looking back at this moment, I can immediately feel the preciousness and happiness that accompany the relaxed and leisurely life.
He hasn't even come to choose a name for himself and Xiaochan's child...
As the sun went down, and before the meal was served in the house, Ning Yi and Tan'er went for a walk on the nearby streets. There is a small river passing through the city near the yard. There is a stone bridge on the small river. There are not many pedestrians around. The autumn sun shines on the leaves and falls into the river. Watching Wu Peng's boat pass under the stone bridge, Tan'er leads him. hand. Not far around, there are many guards and servants who follow.
"I originally... wanted a simpler life." Tan'er smiled, "It's good to be like Jiang Ning, you don't have to go out and always bring a lot of people with you, for fear of being called by others. You can walk leisurely and watch leisurely. Scenery, Xianggong, do you remember? There is a bridge like this near my home in Jiangning. Sometimes when you come back, I will meet you there... I saw it when I first moved here, and I thought to myself. , when the sun went down, I went for a walk here on the bridge, and then I saw you coming from the other side of the bridge..."
After the things about Zhuji and Ning Yi became bigger and bigger, the family members had to bring guards and bodyguards when they went out. When they went home, most of them were in carriages, and there was almost no chance of going for a walk outside. Ning Yi lowered his head, while Tan'er shook his head.
"I also know what you want to do, Xianggong, and I will support you in everything. But there is only one thing, I don't understand in my heart, things in the world are done by people in the world, why... Xianggong has so much urgency in your heart, just Like this time, if you stay in the capital, you can obviously do it, and the efficiency will definitely be poor, but it's almost there. When I was at home, in front of Yunzhu and the others, I didn't dare to ask you this, but I didn't understand what… "
Ning Yi held her hand tightly. After a moment of silence, he sighed and whispered, "I want to see the battlefield..."
"Huh?" Tan'er turned to look at him.
Ning Yi looked at him with a smile, his eyes clear: "Do you know how long Pharmacist Guo resisted before the city of Yanjing was destroyed?"
Tan'er obviously didn't understand why he said this.
"He resisted for five hours, and fought evenly with Wanyan Zongwang for five hours. If there is no change and no one stabs a knife in the back, he may even defeat Wanyan Zongwang." Ning Yi continued, "We are in Guo Yaoshi's office. There are people around, not to the extent that they can control him or kill him, but they can know the original appearance of the whole thing. Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren pulled away on the battlefield and wanted to surrender, but Guo Yaoshi really wanted to win, this defeat After that, he returned to Yanjing, and if he held the city to defend it, he could defend it for a while, but he surrendered immediately, do you know what that means?"
"What?" Tan'er asked, but she might not care at all.
"Since Zhang Jue's death, the issue of surrender has become irrelevant to him. If there are no further bad things happening, he can fight, but because the two brothers decided to surrender and cannot change, he immediately knew that he would not fight if he continued. Meaning. From... Maybe after Zhang Jue died, he knew clearly in his heart that he was not optimistic about the Wu Dynasty."
Ning Yi smiled: "Also, at the beginning of the war, the one in the palace was going to make Guo Yaoshi the King of Yan. Can you think of what this means?"
Tan'er's eyes were puzzled, Ning Yi paused, and then continued: "Everyone in the court has probably seen it, the one in the palace... was frightened and scared. Of course, he may not find it himself, but He was desperately ill and went to the doctor. Before Pharmacist Guo won the battle, he directly sealed the king of Yan. He said that he bought bones with thousands of dollars, but what about the others? Without this precedent, what would the Western Army in Shizhen Xixia do? How to explain? He was scared, and he was about to put all the chips in his hand... And after the man in the palace, Tong Guan threw away Taiyuan and returned to Beijing. When he was about to come back, it was estimated that Yanmenguan and Yanjing City had not been broken. Woolen cloth… "
Tan'er was silent for a moment: "They..."
"The emperor in the palace, the minister in charge of the army, the front-line general at the border..." Ning Yi smiled, "They all don't believe that the Wu Dynasty can win. Oh, at least this time, they have become the most competent prophets. Well, you can talk about singing and dancing, all kinds of bastard things, everyone knows how many things in their hearts..."
Aware of what Ning Yi said, Tan'er didn't know what to say for a while. Ning Yi held her hand.
"Of course, things are not as bad as you think. No matter how a country collapses, it can be delayed for a period of time, but in the smallest probability, it is indeed possible for them to kill all the way and break the capital, even for several years or more. , destroy the entire Wu Dynasty. At that time, everyone may not be able to escape." He paused, "This possibility, after all, exists."
"I only care about you, in the end, it's these people in the family." Ning Yi took her hand, looked into her eyes and smiled, "There are tens of millions of people in this world, I hope they can live Good. But to be honest, if things can't be undone, even if tens of millions of people die in front of me, I can come back and live a good life. But if Jinbing really breaks Bianliang, or breaks Jiangning, chase after him. When we have nowhere to escape, when it really falls on you, what should I do?"
"It's fine if I can't do anything, but I can do it now. How can I put your safety on such a group of unreliable people?" He put Tan'er's fingers one by one. Bending up, clenching his fist, and wrapping it in his own palm, the woman's hand is not big, at this time, the figure of the wife in front of him seems to be small, he laughed, "So I'm going to the battlefield to see... "
From the beginning to the end, Ning Yi is a person who firmly believes in people's efforts and abilities. People have things they are good at and things they are not good at, but if they are willing to make arduous efforts, what they are good at can accommodate what they are not good at. Therefore, He also has to go to the front line of the battlefield to see, listen and feel. Just because you don't want to entrust your cherished things in the hands of others, people have to make their own efforts.
The woman hugged the man's body, and the silhouette of the autumn leaves was illuminated by the setting sun, merging the two figures into one. The thunder of summer has passed, and this is the last warmth in the early autumn. Next, is the icy killing, and the boiling blood river.
On the fourth day of the eighth lunar month, he made arrangements for the affairs of the house for the whole day, and at the same time, he had issued orders to Zhuji in the north. In the afternoon, he also met with the teacher. In the evening of the same day, Ning Yi bid farewell to the prime minister's mansion and everyone in his family, and left the still serene Bianliang City, where the lights of thousands of homes were shining, and he was the only one who heard people. Heading North…

To the north, Shi Jin and the others crossed the city of Xinzhou. The chaotic, cruel, bloody, and desolate scene of war unfolded before their eyes. After that, there were countless enemy troops... (Please search Piao astronomy, more Well update faster!
