Chapter 66: The War Begins
Su Qingluan sat in the carriage and didn't say a word, they left Northern Qi three days ago, and just this morning they received news from Xiaoyaowei that the crown prince's concubine Lin Xuan had died the night before. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info so since they received the news, they have accelerated their speed, hoping to return to Jingjing soon.
Thinking of the gentle and gentle Lin Xuan, I couldn't help but think of the first time she entered the palace, the Queen Mother summoned her into the palace, and met Su Qingluan in the imperial garden, with a warm smile on her face when she saluted gently and generously, this was her first impression of her.
After marrying Yiwen, she was not at all dissatisfied with the fact that she could not have an heir before the prince and concubine entered the door, and finally had a child but the pregnancy was damaged, resulting in a great injury after giving birth to a child, and now the child is less than eight months old and will be separated forever. I haven't heard the child call her mother concubine, and she hasn't had time to see her husband again, so she must be sorry before she dies!
It's not that she is too careful, she grew up in the most noble but ugly place in the world, and she is very familiar with the scheming between women for grace and for their children. The song is ...... Could it be her?
Time passed between the group in a hurry, and ten days later, in the early morning, they entered Jingjing, and the prince entered the palace to see Jinghuang Jinghou, and then went back to the house to see Lin Xuan for the last time.
Although the crown prince's side concubine could not stop for half a month, the queen mother made a decree, leaning on the emperor's eldest grandson, and asked the prince and concubine to wait until the prince came back to see the last person before entering the funeral. So Qu Zitian ordered someone to carve an ice coffin with ice, and then used ice to calm it all day, and waited until the prince returned.
Su Qingluan and Su Qingsong came out of the palace and came to the prince's mansion together, accompanied by Su Qingyu and Su Qingyuan. Several people gave Lin Xuan a pillar of incense and quietly withdrew, leaving the prince alone by Lin Xuan's ice coffin.
They all know that Lin Xuan's status in his feelings and hearts is more important to the prince than Qu Zitian, and at this moment, the best way to let him vent the pain in his heart is to let him vent the pain in his heart, and they are not good by his side.
A few people sat down in the pavilion in the garden, and after a while, Qu Zi came over with the emperor's eldest grandson, Su Haoqian. Xiao Haoqian is only eight months old, and at this time, he still doesn't understand that his mother has left him forever, but Lin Xuan is a little haggard after not seeing him for many days.
The song leaned over to the pavilion and saluted Su Qingluan first, and then Su Qingyu and Su Qingyuan got up to greet her.
Qu Zi sat down and took Su Haoqian from the nurse's hand, hugged him in his arms and teased softly, but the little man in his arms had no spirit. handed Su Haoqian back to the nurse on the side and let her hug her to play, and then chatted with Su Qingluan and a few others.
Speaking of Lin Xuan's death, Qu Zi couldn't help crying, "Concubine Lin has been in poor health since she gave birth to Qian'er, every time the imperial doctor comes, she says that she hurt her vitality when she was a child, who knows that her body will deteriorate after entering the autumn, and finally ...... Still went. Leaving Qian'er so young, alas, Qian'er doesn't understand anything but knows how to find her mother, and she has lost a lot of weight these days, which is really a pitiful child. ”
Su Qingluan saw the sadness of the song crying, and comforted, "You don't have to be too sad, no one can stop birth, old age, sickness and death, but Qian'er will have to worry more about you in the future." ”
Qu Zitan has lost a lot of weight because of sadness and fatigue these days, which looks pitiful. After sitting for a while, Su Qingsong had not yet come out of Lin Xuan's mourning hall, Su Qingluan and a few people got up to say goodbye, and a few people separated after leaving the prince's mansion.
After Su Qingluan returned home, he took a bath and rested, and after washing off his tiredness, he lay on the bed but was not casual, he simply looked at the top of the bed with his eyes open, and the figure of that person appeared in the South China Sea from time to time.
Drinking with him in the palace garden, drunk with the moon in the drunken fairy pavilion, his letter only reads, "If you don't see each other for a day, give you wine to relieve your sorrows." A page of letterhead, a kiss in the palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty, in the carriage he told the truth...
It seems that she is really attracted to him, is this good or bad, just about to accept him, the study finds that he has discovered a secret that she does not want others to discover.
In fact, as smart as him, it is not difficult to find out about this matter through clues, but she has some bad feelings in her heart. She thought that it would be best if she told him about it herself at the right time, and now that she had not decided whether to tell him or not, or before she could tell him, he knew it clearly......
She was stunned when she thought of this, it turned out that in her heart, she did not exclude him from knowing about it, but she was entangled, so she took the initiative to tell him instead of him finding out by himself.
It turned out that before she knew it, her heart didn't know when to accept him, and when? Was it the kiss in the Northern Qi Palace, or the letter, or was it his first confession to her?
Connecting with her inner thoughts, her whole person was relaxed, no matter what time it was, in short, she was already tempted by him, so in order to punish him for not reporting Fu Mingxuan's affairs, she decided to dry him for a while. Thinking of this, she finally felt sleepiness attack, this time she was no longer entangled, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
……
At the beginning of September, the war between the Wa Kingdom and Nan Chen finally began, because Gong Xuelian led the wolf into the house, resulting in the loss of three cities on the Nanchen border within half a month, at this time Gong Xuelian finally found out that something was wrong, and Nan Chen also found out what Gong Xuelian had done and imprisoned Gong Xuelian, but the Wa State came prepared this time, and Nan Chen only had the power to defend. Presumably, Nan Chen will ask the Three Kingdoms for help in the near future, but this news was sent by Xiaoyaowei through a special channel, and Dajing and the other two countries will know about it at the latest tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Su Qingluan couldn't help but admire Gong Chuli a little, in order to completely get rid of Gong Xuelian, she did not hesitate to sacrifice three cities, I believe that even without the help of the Three Kingdoms, she would have a way to recover those three cities and drive the Wa Kingdom out of Nanchen, but only by making Empress Nanchen feel uncomfortable and painful, she can completely get rid of Gong Xuelian, and even get rid of other opponents in this war.
Know how to make trade-offs. Therefore, Gong Chuli is a woman who is naturally suitable to be the emperor, and she is only suitable for making up for Dajing and protecting as many Dajing people as possible.
Sure enough, on the second day, Emperor Jing received a letter for help written by Empress Nan Chen, hoping that Emperor Jing could send troops to save Nan Chen from fire and water, and he would be grateful one day.
For a hundred years, Nanchen and Dajing have maintained a good relationship, so for Empress Nanchen's request for help, Emperor Jing agreed as a matter of course, and sent General Huwei as the commander and Su Qingyu as the deputy general, leading 30,000 elite soldiers to Nanchen early tomorrow morning to support.
Su Qingluan took the initiative to ask to take her 300 Fengxiang army to Nanchen, and it was considered to be experienced, and Emperor Jing agreed to her request after thinking about it, and named her as a prison army to accompany the army to Nanchen, on the condition that 2,000 more forest guards were sent to follow and protect.
Su Qingluan understood that Emperor Jing was worried about him, although he would not feel that it was dangerous, but these two thousand Yu Lin Wei were her private soldiers, and it was much more convenient to use them if they were not under the jurisdiction of General Huwei, after all, she was still stretched thin with only three hundred female soldiers in her hands, so she readily agreed.
However, when she left the palace, she warned the two thousand Yu Lin Wei in advance, "Although my father sent you to protect me, but from now until you come back from Nan Chen, you are all under my jurisdiction, and if you dare to disobey orders, give me back now." ”
Yu Linwei understood what Su Qingluan meant, I am afraid that this errand will not be easy to do, and when the time comes, if something happens to her after they are transferred by Su Qingluan, they will not be able to cut off a hundred heads, but if they are driven back now, then their fate can be imagined.
Knowing what the Yu Lin guards were worried about, Su Qingluan comforted, "Don't worry, even if something happens to me, I won't blame you, my father will naturally say it! Now I'll ask again, if anyone finds it difficult to do it, stand up, of course, I will also tell her father that I won't blame you!"
The Yulin guards looked at each other, and then said in unison, "I respectfully obey Her Royal Highness Princess Jing'an!"
Su Qingluan nodded with satisfaction, and drove to the mansion of the eldest princess of Jing'an first.
