Rong Sleepy Crane said: "Lone is hope, taking advantage of the fact that Fu Zhen is unwilling to play hide and seek with Lone on the grassland, turn back, intersperse from the northwest direction, and wait for the opportunity to return to the Western Xinjiang and join the Western Xinjiang Army." ”

"Then contact the Southern Xinjiang Army and ask the Southern Xinjiang Army to enter Western Xinjiang through the old road and participate in the grand event!"

"But the relationship between the Southern Xinjiang Army and us is nothing more than the help they helped when they invaded Western Xinjiang earlier. The henchman reminded him, "It's because they're in secret...... That secret decree was given by Concubine Shu when she was there, and now not to mention that Concubine Shu is no longer there, the surviving Shu Zhaoyi also looks like her status is not guaranteed. In fact, in the recent news from Chang'an, the Leyi Palace, where Shu Zhaoyi is located, has changed from being lively in the past to being crowded. ”

"Although the main Zhaoyi has never fallen out of favor, what Emperor Xuanjing has done in the past two years has become more and more unpopular. ”

"To say that earlier this Son of Heaven was able to make behemoths like King Gaomi and the Meng Clan full of jealousy, and they didn't dare to go too far, so they were all submissive to the Shu sisters and didn't dare to make mistakes. Now his prestige is not enough to influence the affairs of the court!"

"In this situation, Shu Zhaoyi is favored again, what can she do?"

A few days ago, Meng Guiyu announced that the queen had good news after Shu Zhaoyi to encourage people...... Now the concubine who cares most about Chang'an City is none other than the queen. ”

"Shu Zhaoyi is already in a state where she is about to be forgotten...... At this time, there is no one who is quite weighty to go to the southern Xinjiang army to persuade them, but I am afraid that they may not be willing to move?"

Rong Sleepy Crane shook his head and said: "After all, Mr. Le Yang is a literati, although he has the qualifications to control the Jishan thieves, but how many Jishan thieves are there? How many people are there in the Western Xinjiang Army now? Because this lone army is going deep, the slightest carelessness will be the disaster of the whole army, and the people who bring it over are all henchmen among the henchmen. It can be said that since Jiang Gu took over the Western Xinjiang Army, the elite found has been exhausted!"

"So the Western Xinjiang Army, which is still in the Western Frontier, seems to be outnumbered, but in fact, Mr. Le Yang's support is bound to be difficult!"

"This is still the reason why Fu Zhen took the initiative to abandon them in anger. ”

"Something really happened...... Not to mention the rout of the whole army, the vitality is greatly injured and languishing, it is a common thing. ”

"The Western Xinjiang Army is the foundation of Lone, if there is a trend of chaos today, how can Lone leave for a long time?"

He also said, "What's more, although the Southern Xinjiang Army is not too familiar, they also had contact when they ambushed Saili together. Lone thinks he knows something about them, and although those people are a little scared, they are not completely unthinking about the future. ”

I really don't have any idea, after receiving Emperor Xuanjing's secret decree, will he still send troops to the western frontier so happily?

After all, because the Southern Xinjiang Army has no strong enemies, it is leisurely, and even a little bit of retirement.

In this case, if they don't have ambitions, they can learn from Xu Zijing and try their best to stay out of the matter.

Instead of seeing the secret decree and taking it...... Speaking of which, didn't you think that Rong Sleeping Crane was excellent in itself, his bloodline was close to Emperor Xuanjing, and he also had the support of the very favored Shu sisters, and it was a matter of time before he entered the East Palace, thinking that he could hug a good thigh?

Therefore, it does not matter whether Gu goes to persuade in person or not, what is important is that Gu must show the ability and future worthy of their trust. ”

"In this way, don't say that Lone doesn't go over in person, Lone just doesn't pay attention to them at all, and they may not take the initiative to send them to the door!"

He looked around at everyone, "But if Lone has been on the grassland and his whereabouts are unknown, or even if his life and death are unknown...... How can we make the southern Xinjiang army excited? Let alone convince them?"

"If you go south by sea to Namfu-gun...... Even if everything goes smoothly along the way, how can there be enough time for less than a month and a half?"

"Can we afford to delay this situation?"

The henchmen discussed a few words in a low voice, and the original opposition gradually subsided, and they turned to discuss the route back to the western frontier from the northwest and the issues that needed attention.

Seeing this situation, Rong Sleeping Crane beckoned to a confidant and whispered: "The Southern Xinjiang Army still needs people to come into contact with it, after all, from Southern Xinjiang to Western Xinjiang, even if there is a secret path, the road is far away." And the soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first...... You send a letter to Lone's father-in-law as quickly as possible, and ask him to help Zhang Luo!"

…… said that it was the fastest speed, and it was already a few days after Sheng Lanci received the news here.

At this time, the news that Na Fu Zhen gave up going to the grassland to besiege and kill Rong Sleeping Crane and turned to attack Da Mu has already been reported.

The three families of Nanfeng County were speechless, and they were worried about the reputation of the sleeping crane, and the focus was on the people's hearts.

Sheng Weiqiao was calm at this point, saying that the people have always been forgetful, and at this time they have suffered in the hands of Ruru, although some people will scold Rong Sleeping Crane for harming them, as long as Rong Sleeping Crane makes a contribution to protect Li Shu, there will be few people who will come out to sing praises to him, and at that time, what Ruru is doing now will naturally not be recorded on Rong Sleeping Crane's head.

In fact, the elders of the three families know this truth better than her, and the reason why they are nervous is also for her and Rong Ruibin's sake in the final analysis.

Since he was so concerned about the future of Sheng Weiqiao's family, after listening to his son-in-law's request, Sheng Lanci immediately threw down the matter at hand and planned to visit the commander of the Southern Xinjiang Army.

I didn't want to be stopped by Sheng Weiqiao, who heard the news, and said, "Daddy, let me do this, right?"

Of course, Sheng Lanci refused: "Good girl, firstly, this matter was entrusted to me by Mizhen, and secondly, it is difficult for women to enter the barracks." What's more, in front of your father, where is the reason for you to show your face?"

"It's just that the top brass of the Southern Xinjiang Army are moving, and they don't have to go to the barracks. Sheng Weiqiao stepped forward and grabbed his arm, half coquettish and half explained, "I was in Northern Xinjiang before, and I had contact with Uncle Zhao several times, and when I left, the barracks commander didn't take a serious look at anything!"

He also said, "What's more, I have dealt with Uncle Zhao, who has always been loyal to my father-in-law earlier, and I have been told about it, and now I am more or less familiar with the Southern Xinjiang Army." ”

However, Sheng Lan was reluctant to let her daughter run around, and secondly, she felt that although the Southern Xinjiang Army had always had a good relationship with Rong Mianhe, it was not so reliable after all.

Who knows if Sheng Weiqiao will be in danger if he goes?

So I didn't want to say yes.

Helplessly, Sheng Weiqiao was resolute, and also pulled Old Lady Feng to help him speak: "Lan Ci, this kind of thing, if Qiao'er can do it, you should really let her do it? Why? Our Qiao'er has a reputation for being spoiled and squeamish, and I'm afraid that there are few people in the world who don't know it! When she was a girl at home before, can she still say that she is a pearl in her palm, and she should be squeamish." But now that she is the princess of the county, her future prospects are even more limitless, and she has no achievements, how can she serve the public?"

He whispered again, "Do you want Qiao'er to be said to be useless in the future except for good luck and favor, and it is all by mistake that she became Mizhen's wife?

Sheng Lanci was awe-inspiring, but she was still not at ease, and finally decided to accompany Sheng Weiqiao with Old Lady Feng.

When they went, including Old Lady Feng, who had always supported Sheng Weiqiao, there was a little suspense in their hearts, because the Southern Xinjiang Army said that it was in the south, but Damu had a vast area, and the garrison of the Southern Xinjiang Army was still a long way from Nanfeng County.

There is even a distance to the power of Nanfeng County, and it has nothing to do with the Southern Xinjiang Army at all.

Even if the Southern Xinjiang Army has always been at the bottom of the three major border armies, it is still an unrivaled behemoth for the powerful people in the counties...... At this time, they went to other people's territory, and the southern Xinjiang army treated each other politely, and if their commander had other ideas, or worse, had already been preempted by other lobbyists, then they would really have been sent to the door!

However, we all know that now is a critical moment, if Rong Sleeping Crane really doesn't have a suitable candidate, he won't ask for his father-in-law's door, because the two of them didn't say a word, but they both explained in private what to do if the trip didn't go well, and even after everyone fell into the hands of the Southern Xinjiang Army, the focus was on the arrangement of Rong Ruibin.

Of course, this is hidden from Sheng Weiqiao.

But what they didn't expect was that after they met with the high-level leaders of the Southern Xinjiang Army, the other party was unexpectedly polite and enthusiastic.

For the request to cooperate with Rong Sleeping Crane, he nodded almost without bargaining, and even looked at their posture, he couldn't wait to go back and pack his luggage and set off.

So that after the matter was completed, I was worried that there would be a change, and I used the excuse that there were still things at home, especially Rong Ruibin's young age and inseparability from my mother, so I hurriedly said goodbye, and walked out dozens of miles in one breath, and when I was far away, I looked at each other and discussed: "Have they admired Mizhen for a long time?"

"Could it be Mi Zhen, and there is any news coming from it?" Sheng Weiqiao guessed, "And it's good news?"

Old Lady Feng and Sheng Lanci also thought so, so the next way was to slow down the itinerary and inquire, who knew that they didn't hear any news along the way...... This is also normal, because the Southern Xinjiang Army is at the bottom of the three major border armies, and in the end it is the army of the imperial court that guards the border, and the sources are not comparable to ordinary people.

It is the three families of Nanfeng County, who can quickly and comprehensively know the situation in the far north, and it is also because of Rong Sleeping Crane.

At this point, even the county guards of Nanfeng County may not be comparable to them.

Especially at this time, it is approaching the end of the year, the south has not been burned, and every household is preparing for the New Year, where do you still have the heart to care about things far away?

After the group realized this, they no longer delayed, and hurried back to Nanfeng County, and sure enough, there was already a message from the Wuyi camp here: more than ten days ago, Rong Sleeping Crane returned to Damu smoothly, but it did not converge with the Western Xinjiang Army, but quietly sneaked to the Northern Xinjiang Army that was retreating all the way.

Although this victory came very well and had little significance for the entire battle situation, it had a great impact on the encouragement of the hearts of Da Mu's side, especially the recovery of Rong Mianhe's personal reputation.

Moreover, Rong Sleeping Crane had calculated the success of King Gaomi earlier, and gathered his subordinates, most of them could not stand by at this time, and they all made a noise, hyped up Rong Sleeping Crane's great achievements, and said a small victory, which was like saving the world and helping the people, and it was not much worse than His Majesty the Founding Emperor Taizu of Da Mu.

This situation not only made Fu Zhen's plan to attract the hatred of the people of Damu to Rong Sleeping Crane bankrupt, but more importantly, Emperor Xuanjing and Meng Guiyu were all hacked in a quiet manner: As the rightful master of the world and the current de facto regent, Ru Ru has been in for so long, what have these two people done?

Nothing!

Although everyone is not aware of this yet, looking at this situation, as long as Rong Sleeping Crane has any more military exploits or other achievements in the future, the idea of "what is the use of this kind of faint king and this kind of traitorous minister" will be promoted sooner or later.

In this situation, it is no wonder that the Southern Xinjiang Army will be so happy to respond to the request to send troops.

"Let's be obedient is blessed deeply!" The future is in sight, except for the Sheng family in Nanfeng County, this New Year is full of joy.

The Sheng family can't say that there is no festive atmosphere at all, but it is probably in the big room, as for the second and third rooms in the Forbidden Snow Hall, because the big house plans to leave, there is a lot of chaos, but there is not much interest in the New Year.

But Sheng Lanci and his wife ignored this, and only taught the people below to dress up inside and outside the mansion seriously, celebrating the New Year's Day, Feng Shi watched the people below cut the window flowers, and after itching, he personally took the red paper and cut out a complicated and gorgeous flower crown, opened it, and put it on the head of his grandson Rong Ruibin, kissed him happily, and said softly, "Ruibin is also ...... You're a family of three, we're about to be reunited, aren't you?"

The half-year-old child could not speak, but only looked up curiously to grab the flower crown on his head, while making a babbling sound, he tried to reach the movement of the flower crown, as if he nodded slowly, and then said: "Xiao Shizi is young!

The delicate laughter of the maids, mixed with the childish voice of the baby, resounded throughout the courtyard, making Sheng Weiqiao, who could step into the threshold, shake his sideburns and step, and subconsciously bent an upturned arc.

This is the Chinese New Year's Eve of the 34th year of Xuanjing.

The snow is overwhelming in the north, but the south wind is still full of flowers.

It is also Sheng Weiqiao's last year in his hometown.
