Chapter 211: Yellow Sand in Mobei
Riding in the carriage to the palace, Chu Zui was pondering, what should he say when he said goodbye?
Don't you mind if you're drunk and crazy for a while? No, it's too frivolous;
I'm leaving, a little reluctant to you? No, it's even more misleading;
Chu Zui, who had been entangled all the way, finally decided to pretend that he didn't know anything, and directly coaxed him back to the Hou Mansion under the pretense of curiosity.
Well, that's it.
Dingbei Hou, who had made up his mind, entered the palace all the way to the emperor's warm pavilion, and sure enough, he met the emperor here.
The emperor is suspicious and sleek, and he prefers to pretend to be kind and unscheming, which makes people look jealous and twist for him.
Although I don't like this one in my heart, he is still a cheap brother of Tiansha Lone Star, but he still has to make a brother, friend and brother on the outside, and when he sees it again, Chu Zui still can't help but feel shocked in his heart.
"The imperial sister is here?" the emperor welcomed Chu drunk very warmly, and said: "This is going to northern Xinjiang, and the imperial sister will have to work hard again." ”
"Wherever there is a word, it should be shared. Chu Zui bowed his head and saluted, hesitated for a long time and pretended to be curious: "Why did the Fourth Highness come to the palace, is the food in the Hou Mansion unappetizing?"
When he heard his name, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Chu Zui's eyes that seemed to be smiling, and he couldn't see half of the panic and unnatural look there.
Sure enough, did he forget yesterday's events? Does that mean he can still get along with her as before?
After a brief period of excitement, a trace of sorrow rose inexplicably in Xiao Suiyu's heart, she forgot, what was her nervousness?
"Hmm, Fourth Highness?" Seeing that he was stunned, Chu Zui endured the condemnation of his conscience and asked again pretending to be innocent.
"Oh, nothing. Xiao Suiyu reacted and said: "You are leaving today, when I came to the palace, because the observatory of the palace is relatively high, I can see you for a while." ”
If Chu Zui couldn't remember what he had done drunk, he could still accept it calmly, and even praised the righteous son that the first emperor gave her to be sensible, but in the face of such a situation, Chu Zui couldn't understand the meaning of these words for a while.
Could it be that Xiao Sui meets the self he likes in his heart?
Chu Zui slapped himself hard in the bottom of his heart, and immediately scattered this thought.
A subtle embarrassment spreads in this little warm pavilion, and the innocent emperor becomes a fish in the pond that has been affected.
The emperor who couldn't stand the two of them who stared at him finally spoke, "What did the imperial sister say?" Although the fourth brother was given to you by the first emperor, after all, he is also a member of the family, and it is okay to go back to the palace often to see me, we are all a family." ”
casually answered the conversation very interestingly: "Yes, I want to take the imperial brother to see you off later." ”
"Oh, thank you, Your Highness. After Chu drunk and saluted, he followed Yu Xianggu and walked all the way, and wanted to say something several times, but the words came to his mouth and put them down.
The dignity and concerns of being an elder always made it inconvenient for her to speak, and for the first time, she felt that this emperor who valued literature over military force was much more pleasing to the eye.
When she arrived at the gate of the palace, when she stepped into battle, Xiao Suiyu grabbed a corner of her clothes: "I ......"
Chu drunk: "Huh?"
Sui Yu plucked up his courage and said, "I'm waiting for you to come back in the Hou Mansion." ”
"Okay, I'll be back again in Layue, and I often write letters!" Chu Zui was a lot more cheerful, and took the tall horse led by the soldier and stepped on it at once.
Stretched out his hand to take the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor, raised it high and shouted: "Go on the expedition!"
As soon as these two words were spoken, the 50,000 soldiers behind her did the same action as her, and the shouts were crisp and neat, but they called out the momentum of a big country in the Central Plains, which was enough to deter Qi Liefeng.
Chu Zui took one last look at the hundred officials, his eyes stayed on Xiao Suiyu's body for a moment, tightened the horse's rope, and rode his horse to the expedition.
Silver armor, white war horse, the girl walked at the forefront of the entire army, and carried the entire Tianyan with her narrow shoulders.
Suddenly I couldn't bear it for a while, and the other women in the capital, at her age, were either waiting for the words in the boudoir, playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or spending the moon in the arms of the lover.
And she is the only one who wants to go to the north of Xinjiang, guarding the battle between the two ethnic groups, every day the desert is lonely and the sun sets on the yellow sand. There was no retreat for her over the years, and once she retreated, the people and land of the frontier would be completely finished.
Sui Yu suddenly hated the emperor who was standing beside him, and Chu was drunk and loyally did this for the Tianyan Kingdom, but he was still constantly doubted and suspicious.
If this country is his, will his beloved general not have to struggle to survive on the edge of life and death, and will not be careful inside and outside the enemy because of his belly and back.
If this country is his......
The army walked out for dozens of miles, Chu Zui couldn't help but look back at the bald city wall with a thousand miles of telescope, all the civil and military officials had already left, and the emperor had also left, only a small ink-colored figure stood in the wind, looking firmly into the distance like a lighthouse, and for a moment it made Chu Zui have the illusion of being desolate.
"What's wrong? I'll see. Qi Liefeng curiously took the binoculars and looked back in the direction where Chu Zui was looking, and said in surprise: "Master Hou, if I'm not mistaken, this is the Fourth Highness of your Hou Mansion, right?"
"Hmm. Chu Zui replied vaguely.
"It's really kissing you, when I left the Hu clan, my father Khan didn't even see me so far. ”
"You're talking a lot of nonsense. Chu drunk and snatched the binoculars unhappily: "The prince should think about the division of the mutual market business area at that time!"
Chu Zui clamped the horse's belly between his legs, took the lead, and walked away.
Qi Liefeng didn't understand very much: "Praise your righteous son for his filial piety, why are you angry with me here?"
The further I went, the closer I got to the frontier, and after walking for more than a month, I had arrived at the Jiayuguan station in northern Xinjiang.
Chu drunk settled the soldiers and sent Qi Liefeng away, and returned to the tent tired at night, the first thing he did was to pick up a pen and paper and write a letter to the Hou Mansion.
From what I saw and smelled on the road, I wrote about the strange and strange game in the desert, and the last few paragraphs of understatement to express my feelings of longing were written with my relatives.
As soon as he arrived at the frontier, Chu Zui suddenly became much more enlightened, although this place is regarded by many people as a bitter cold place, but for Chu Zui, the iron-blooded affection here is much more comfortable than the black smoke miasma of the capital.
Thinking that the throbbing of the young man's love will disappear after a period of time, he can sleep with peace of mind, and he is not afraid that the bed board is hard.
The mutual market business area continued to be established, and Chu Zui stared at it for two months in a row, and only then did he see a little effect in the spring season.
was about to write a letter to the emperor to return to his life, and accidentally saw a flower outside the room standing proudly and unexpectedly, Chu drunk on the battlefield for many years naturally did not have the love of the official lady, so he simply picked the flower, made it into a specimen and wrote a letter to Xiao Suiyu.
A few days later, he hastily received the Qi Liefeng who came to stare at the mutual market together, and the agreement on the mutual market was officially signed, and Chu Zui let go of the soldiers to guard.
But there may be some people who are just working hard, and they always want to rest when they are busy, but they feel uncomfortable when they are free.
It just so happened that Chu was drunk and bored these days, and was competing with a few sergeants, when suddenly a pathfinder soldier came to report:
"Master Hou, I found a dense forest outside Egret County, more than a hundred miles away, and I detected small prey such as pheasants and rabbits. ”
Chu Zui immediately became happy when he heard the news, and he didn't compete anymore and said directly: "Ben Hou wants to go hunting in that forest, who of you are interested in going with me, I only bring twenty people, first come, first served!"
As soon as Chu Zui's words fell, the soldiers rushed to sign up, and then clicked on the horse, took a lot of bows and arrows, and marched directly to the forest overnight.
Chu Zui and his party arrived in the forest on the morning of the second day, and the soldiers were used to the journey, and they did not feel tired, and as soon as they entered, they began to compete to see who hit the most prey.
The early morning sunlight shone down, and the filter belt through the forest was a little soft, and it looked very comfortable, and the day's competition did not end until the evening, and the soldiers made a fire on the spot and began to roast their prey.
was joking and playing, when suddenly a wolf howl came from the mountain not far away.
Immediately afterwards, the wolf howl triggered a larger-scale wolf howl, and the wolf howl was far or near, one after another, making the group dangerous in an instant.
Suddenly, a green eye in the dark jumped up, and rushed directly to the cooked rabbit meat in Chu Zui's hand, Chu Zui's eyes quickly let go of his hand and dodged sideways, and a whip hit the wolf.
Immediately after, the second, the third, more and more wolves pounced on the small legion of only two dozen people.
"Master Hou!What should I do?!"
