Chapter 282: Breaking into the Northern Han
Qiu Yue looked back and saw that no one was following, and no one was secretly watching around. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so he turned back to Li Hanqiong and said: "If it is really what you said, it is understandable, if it is really you who are cruel and maliciously treat Princess Wende, you will not have a good life." ”
Li Hanqiong smiled bitterly and said: "Although she is the daughter of the king who surrendered to Natu, but in the end, she is the relative of Emperor Xu, if she doesn't do such a big rebellious thing, how can I treat her like that." If I don't like her, it's a big deal to ignore her, so why beat her? As to whether what I said is true or not, you will know after reading this letter. ”
Qiu Yue nodded slowly, and was about to take a step forward, just two steps away, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong, because he found that there was a powerful coercion spreading from a roof not far away.
She immediately withdrew and returned to Li Hanqiong's side, Li Hanqiong was not alert, so she was immediately restrained by Qiu Yue again.
Then, Qiu Yue looked up and saw that in the night, the gray-robed old man was standing on the roof, revealing half of his head, and was looking at him in amazement. He didn't expect that Qiu Yue, who was two levels below him, would actually notice that he was hiding on the roof not far away, just because he was about to make a move to reveal the coercion.
The gray-robed old man originally wanted to wait for Qiu Yue to leave a little farther away, and then fall down to intercept her, this person dared to hold the general hostage, and he couldn't let her go easily, but he didn't expect to be noticed by Qiu Yue.
Qiu Yue said coldly to Li Hanqiong: "General Li, it seems that your subordinates don't listen to you very much, they still have to prepare to deal with me, what do you say?"
Li Hanqiong pointed to the gray-robed old man on the roof and shouted: "Ben Lei Weng, tell you and your people to withdraw quickly, don't intercept, this girl has no ill will towards me, who dares to intercept it, to disobey the military order!"
The gray-robed old man's name was Ben Lei Weng, and Qiu Yue was taken aback, because she had heard Feng Qiuyu tell her about the celebrities in the rivers and lakes before, including this Ben Lei Weng. This person has a set of thunder punches, and there is a faint flash of thunder when he punches, which is extremely powerful. Mainly haunted in the northwest area, famous in the rivers and lakes, but unexpectedly surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty army, and became the escort of Li Hanqiong, an important military general in northern Xinjiang.
Ben Lei stood up, bowed, and then waved his hand, and several people in the room jumped off the roof with him and retreated into the yamen.
Li Hanqiong watched them retreat into the yamen with a gloomy face, and then her face softened slightly, yes, Qiu Yue said: "If the girl is still worried, I can send the girl to wherever you want to go." ”
Qiu Yue estimated that no one else dared to disobey the military order anymore, so she smiled and said: "To be honest, they can't stop me if they want to stop me, I just don't want to do things that are quick for relatives and enemies, after all, I am also a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty." Hope that the general won the battle between the Northern Han and the Khitan, and immediately succeeded, and took his leave. ”
The rumors that the Great Song Dynasty wanted to use troops against the Northern Han Dynasty had long been spread throughout the government and the opposition, but no one knew when to use troops, so it was no secret. Qiu Yue's words did not surprise Li Hanqiong. "If you can find my wife, tell her that if she gives up those bastard ideas, I'll treat her well." ”
Qiu Yue nodded, didn't speak again, her figure flashed, and she disappeared into the night, the speed was staggering.
Li Hanqiong looked at the direction in which Qiuyue disappeared and was stunned for a long time. This woman has such cultivation at a young age, especially since she has all kinds of powerful magic weapons on her body, she is indeed a powerful character, but unfortunately she doesn't know whether she is friend or foe.
………………
Qiu Yue walked through the streets and alleys, until she was sure that there were no pursuers behind her, and then she pulled out the letter under the window where the lights were still on, read it hurriedly, frowned, and then put the letter back in the envelope and returned to the inn.
The crown princess sat nervously at the table, holding the lamp, holding the cheeks, looking at the door, hearing footsteps, and then there was a gentle knock on the door, I couldn't help but feel happy in my heart, got up and walked out quickly, opened the door, saw the autumn moon dressed in black outside the door, and said happily: "Are you back?"
"It's all right, I heard the whereabouts of Princess Wende, she is not here, I saw her husband, however, her husband said that she left a letter and left, I have brought the letter, you see. ”
Qiu Yue handed the letter to the crown princess, turned around and fastened the door, the crown princess walked to the table, took out the letter paper from the envelope and sat in front of the lamp to watch, after reading it, she couldn't help frowning together.
This letter was written by Princess Wende to Li Hanqiong. Tell him that if he does more injustice, he will kill himself, and let her not help the abuse, and it is not too late to rebel against the Great Song Dynasty at this moment. She is now going to Jinyang and unite the Northern Han and Khitan to jointly exterminate the Great Song Dynasty. At that time, he was still obsessed, and once he became a prisoner, he would regret it too late.
After reading the letter, the crown princess was stunned for a moment. Qiu Yue sat down beside her and asked in a low voice, "Was the letter written by Princess Wende?"
The crown princess nodded and said, "It's indeed her handwriting, and it's very similar to her personality." When his father was about to surrender, the crown prince and Princess Wende were the strongest opponents, and even knelt on the ground and begged bitterly. But my father still decided to surrender. The crown prince left with me, but Princess Wende followed her father to the capital of the Great Song Dynasty. I don't know why she didn't leave with the prince, but she was going to the capital of the Great Song Dynasty. Now I understand that she wants to go deep into the Great Song Dynasty to find an opportunity to help the prince restore the country, maybe this is what she planned with the prince. Judging from today's letter, I suspect that her marriage to Li Hanqiong was not the intention of the Great Song Emperor, but that she proposed it to the Great Song Emperor after reporting to her father and mother. She wants to control the border generals, so as to instigate the border generals to rebel against the imperial court and recover Wu Yueguo, which is really a good plan. ”
"She thinks too simply, how can the Great Song Bian General listen to her and a woman will raise an army against the Song Dynasty?"
The crown princess glanced at him and said, "You don't know, Princess Wende is naturally beautiful, extremely coquettish, and has a lot of tricks to deceive men, she is very confident in her own skills, so she wants to achieve her goal through women." ”
Qiu Yue nodded and said: "I also heard Li Hanqiong say that she instigated one of Li Hanqiong's lieutenants to assassinate Li Hanqiong, but she really injured Li Hanqiong and was killed by Li Hanqiong's guards, and she instigated another general to go out of the city with a team of men and horses to the Northern Han, which shows that she does have this ability to encourage men as you said, and she has also succeeded." ”
The crown princess folded the letter and handed it back to Qiu Yue, saying, "Will the Northern Han listen to her?"
"The Northern Han and Khitan alliances are ready to deal with the Great Song Dynasty together, and they need the prince's people to respond to the Great Song Dynasty, so it is likely to hit it off. ”
The crown princess nodded and said: "I'm not interested in their recovery of Wu Yue, since she has fled to the Northern Han Dynasty, then let's stop there, the Great Song army is about to go on a northern expedition, and we should leave this place of right and wrong." ”
After saying that, the crown princess stood up, hugged Qiu Yue's waist, looked up at her with a pretty face, and looked at her with expectant eyes.
Qiu Yue reached over and patted her round face gently, and said, "I have promised Wen Xin to help him rescue Princess Wende." Although the current situation is different from what we knew before, and she is not living a dire life as Prince Qian said, but now she is in a more dangerous situation, because it is located in the land of the Northern Han Dynasty, and the Great Song Jianfeng refers to the Northern Han Dynasty. It's better to take her away and leave the land of right and wrong. - This is Princess Wenxin's wish, and I must help her fulfill it. ”
The crown princess was slightly disappointed in her eyes and said, "However, we don't know where she is. The Northern Han Dynasty is so big, even if it is only the capital Jinyang, the whole city is so big, how do we know where it is? and where to find it?"
On the way back, Qiu Yue had already thought about this question, and immediately said: "Let's go to the Yamen first to ask, and then to the Northern Han army to ask." Or I'll ask, you can wait for me at the inn. ”
When the crown princess saw Qiu Yue say this, she knew that her attitude was clear and unchangeable, so she had to nod her head and agree, saying, "Then we will do our best, but if we can't find her, then we have to leave as soon as possible, after all, that place is still too dangerous." ”
Qiu Yue knew that what the crown princess said was true, if the Northern Song Dynasty army came to besiege the city in the future, it would be very difficult to get out, and there was no need to risk herself. So, she nodded and said, "That's it, ten days, we'll look for her for ten days." If we still don't get any news from her in ten days, we'll leave, okay? Anyway, after the Great Song Emperor has to hold the spring examination, he will raise troops for the Northern Expedition, and after counting, there will be more than two months. ”
The two agreed.
After dawn, he hired a carriage and drove to Jinyang Mansion, the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty.
When they entered the border of the Northern Han Dynasty, they were not strictly examined, because the Northern Han knew that their army was too weak to resist the army of the Great Song Dynasty, so they concentrated all the troops of the whole country in the capital Jinyang to hold on, waiting for reinforcements from the Liao Dynasty, and there was no decent army to defend at the border.
Prior to this, the Northern Song Dynasty had held three Northern Expeditions, each of which was because the Liao Dynasty sent troops to aid the Northern Han Dynasty, but in the end it failed to get what it wanted. The Northern Han also pinned all their hopes for defense on the assistance of the Liao Dynasty.
They successfully entered the territory of the Northern Han Dynasty and went straight to Jinyang along the official road.
Along the way, they saw many ordinary people who were fleeing the military disaster, dragging their families and mouths, and walking on the official road with difficulty, preparing to escape from the Northern Han Dynasty and avoid the war. This is the atmosphere deliberately released by Song Taizong when he was preparing for the Northern Expedition, wanting the Northern Han to cause civil strife first, and the people to flee first, so that the national strength of the Northern Han Dynasty would be weakened, and the attack would be much smoother.
This trick is really powerful, for the common people, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, what matters is the safety of their own lives and property and that of their families. Therefore, whenever it is clear that there will be war, the people in the war zone who can flee will drag their families and flee.
Unlike these fleeing people, Qiuyue and their carriage went to Jinyang City, where the battle was about to take place, attracting the strange eyes of many refugees on the road.
Coming to Jinyang City, Qiuyue lifted the curtain to take a look, couldn't help but gasp, saw that Jinyang City is very majestic, the city wall is higher than the city of Tokyo Bianliang in the Great Song Dynasty, standing under the city gate and looking up, it is simply high into the clouds.
