"Alright, my princess, it's time for me to go home now, and you have to be happy in my absence. ”

The young man in white with a sword put down the teacup and stood up from his seat and said softly: "Don't leave it here, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will come back to Shuyue." ”

The girl looked down at the ups and downs of the tea leaves in the cup, her lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

As if sensing her sadness, the young prince turned his head to look north and said softly: "Tens of thousands of young people from the Golden Horde are gathered on the border of my Yin country, as the prince of the Yin country, now is the time for me to fulfill my responsibilities, my country is calling me, and it is my honor for Chu Xiaohua to serve the country." It's a pity that I'm going to leave after a few years with you, this is my biggest regret, I hope I can come back to Shuyue in the future, and go to Qingzhu Lake with you to listen to you play the piano. ”

"Is that so?" the girl's voice paused, and after he left him, would he be able to endure those unaccompanied nights?

The young man turned over and grabbed the horsewhip and said seriously: "I promise you, I will definitely come back to Shuyue to find you, give me three years, I won't lie to you." I hope you can be happy when I'm not with you. I hope that one day when I look at the whole world, I can hear the sound of the hooves of my Yinguo Iron Rider, no one dares to invade our land again, and one day someone mentions the word Yinguo, no longer with disdainful contempt, but with fear of awe!"

The young princess pursed her lips and looked at him infatuatedly.

"Well, goodbye. He grinned as usual, rode his horse north, and soon disappeared into the snow.

Only the maiden and her attendants were left on the border, she looked down at her face in the teacup, her soft face was as white as a cloud, her long silver hair fluttered with the cold wind, tears slowly slipped from her skin, dripping into the teacup, and the sound of horses' hooves in her ears gradually subsided.

Although this is not Yongjue, but her heart is so sad, Chu Xiaohua's calm and calm left herself, just like when he saw himself in those years, he fell in love with this prince from Yinguo, not because of his background and appearance, Chu Xiaohua's personality is not pleasing, except for his justified fiancée, there are not many people in the palace who like him.

And there aren't many people he likes, and he's always willing to talk to him, which is good.

She likes his cynicism and calmness, he remembers what you say when you don't know it, surprises you without you knowing, and always speaks to you in such a calm tone no matter what happens. It feels like everything is under his control, and he always has a way to solve your difficulties, even if the mountain falls, he is also helping you.

"Don't look at him always as a child, he is still young, but he is a reliable person, you will not suffer if he marries you in the future, if you become an emperor, you must be a benevolent king, you are always right to marry him. ”

Her father that night

Lying on the bed and casually, the father and daughter held their fingers.

Shuyue princess Tai Ningsu was twelve years old has been famous in the west, but also has a peerless appearance, the appearance of the country and the city, play a good piano, the sound of the seven-string guqin is empty and far, with a cold rhythm, listen carefully and slowly as if a woman confides, it is said that the emperor listens to the princess's piano every time, the perennial headache can always stop, every time the emperor meets the minister, the princess will take the piano to play, the emperor looks down on the hundred officials on the high seat, the figure under the brocade curtain behind him shakes, the sound of the piano is long, people can't help but be obsessed and intoxicated.

But when the princess was thirteen years old, the prince from the Yin Kingdom came to Shuyue as a concubine, and was summoned by the emperor to enjoy the snow and listen to the piano in the Qingsheng Palace.

His name is Chu Xiaohua.

"Na, Chu Xiaohua, it's snowing in Shuyue, are you okay in Yinguo?"

The young princess knelt on the bamboo mat and looked up at the snowy sky, the snow on the bamboo leaves fell in the snow one after another, with a cold and soft temperature, slowly spreading in the bottom of her heart.

"Chu Xiaohua, the peach blossoms in the palace are blooming, but it's a pity that you're not here. ”

"I have always carried the jade pendant you gave me, and after winning the war, you must come and marry me. ”

"This year's freshly picked tea leaves are very sweet. ”

"If you don't marry me again, I'll marry someone else. ”

"My father died......"

"My daughter has just been born, I will name her Tantai Tranquility, if you give birth to a son, I will marry my daughter to your son. ”

Fragmentary memories came from all directions with voices, her voice gradually became blurred, many memories and voices were intertwined in her mind, some like her memories, some like her fantasies, making her feel that her consciousness was getting farther and farther away from herself, and finally there was only a voice left in her heart.

Like the cough of the father, the dying person is like a lamp with zero oil, and there is no wind to extinguish.

The old man explained the last thing, and the military attachés passed by, and the young figure by the bedside was in tears, without words.

The old man held his daughter's hand and wanted to say something, but was always interrupted by his own cough.

This man who has worked hard for Shuyue all his life, although he has not made any outstanding contributions to the dynasty, can be regarded as guarding the country and society of Shuyue, and will not let every inch of Shuyue suffer from the disaster of Hou Chu Tieqi.

The old man did not leave a single tear until he died, the old man lay on the bed with his mouth open, his breath seemed to be exhausted, she put her fingers through her father's fingers and held them tightly, but she knew that no matter how tightly she held them, she could not save the old man from leaving. The old man's life is over, and everyone knows it.

The old man's face was pale and there were blood stains on his lips, but

I don't want to wipe it off for him.

"Over the years, many people have died, my father's old friends, your uncles have all died, even your brother has walked in front of your father, and now even your father is leaving you. ”

The old emperor held her hand and said with difficulty: "But the sky will not destroy my Taitai royal family, and you still want to live, many people around you will help you, and my father hopes that you can one day lead the people of Shuyue to capture the land of Houchu, so that we can achieve the final victory, and leave it to you to do what my father can't do...... Ahem, ahem. ”

Her tears slipped down her face and dripped on the back of the old man's thin hand, she felt for the first time that the old man was so thin, far less tall than him in the court, and the old man confided softly: "Don't cry, my father doesn't regret such a life, I married a wife, gave birth to a child, and finally died on a warm bed, although there is no regret in such a life." ”

He nodded, and clenched the old man's hand more and more, the old man shook his head and said: "But I can't accompany your mother to grow old, and I can't see my children and grandchildren calling my grandfather under my knees...... Ahem, Chu Xiaohua's bastard boy didn't come back to you, it's the biggest loss in his life! But Su'er, a person's life is very long, you have to find someone to accompany you to go on, the life of a lonely person is really not good, my father has tasted it, my father doesn't want you to think about him for a lifetime, even if you can no longer be a husband and wife, but it is always good to leave a good memory. After you and your brother were born, the happiest time was when he saw you and your brother playing the piano, and when he saw that everything was okay with you, his father felt at ease. It's a pity that your father didn't protect your brother well, and let his white-haired people send black-headed people, which is the only place where my father complains about himself. ”

The girl couldn't stop crying, and covered her mouth with her other hand.

"In the future, when the Qingming Festival is in the future, just pick some bamboo leaves and put them in front of the monument of the father, people die like lights go out, and the living do not need to have too many thoughts. ”

"Daughter, the foundation left by my father in this life has been given to you, hundreds of thousands of spearmen in Shuyue plus millions of households in Limin, when you are tired in the future, you can blame your father, but your father doesn't want you to be so tired, I'm sorry......"

The girl stopped crying and said calmly, "I will do these things well." ”

Then the father was relieved. ”

The old emperor slowly closed his eyes, and the girl looked at the old man's face for a long time, wiped away her tears, and walked out of the room, holding a strip of silk in her hand, and slowly tied it to the top of her head.

She slowly knelt in front of her father until her forehead touched the floor, and her long silver hair covered her expression.

The emperor died.

After a long time, she walked out of the gate of the dormitory, and from the moment she walked out of this door, she was no longer a princess, but the emperor of Shuyue!

In front of the dormitory, the wind and snow whimpered, and the bamboo leaves flew.

The courtiers who had been waiting outside the door for a long time looked at the particularly bleak white on the princess's head

Su Su slowly knelt in front of the emperor's bedroom, and the cry gradually rose, deafening.

She looked at the courtiers and felt that they were crying like dogs.

Standing silently at the door, the monks passed by him and walked into the room, with a Sanskrit voice in his mouth, wishing to die.

The king died.

......

......

This largest civil war in the history of Shuyue began the moment Ningsu left Shuyue, but the real termination ended at the moment when Yinguo Railway rode into Lijing.

The Yinguo Iron Cavalry has been coming in from the frontier with the power of destroying the withering and decaying, and even the Danyang cavalry they are proud of have been defeated, but the final turning point of this war occurred on the Concubine Pass, and the Yinguo Iron Cavalry was wiped out by the Yinguo Iron Cavalry with a terrifying mountain of mountains, and the entire battlefield was piled up with a huge mountain of corpses, and the entire Concubine Pass was stained red with blood, and the dragoons from Qingguo took advantage of this to go west to burn the Fujian City, so that the army of Shantai Ningsu suffered a very heavy price, if it were not for the Yinguo Iron Cavalry to advance with a resolute will not retreat at the Feizi Pass, the final winner of this war would belong to the Shantai Ninghua。

In that war, the people of Lijing City witnessed on the city wall that this iron disaster in the Northern Regions, known as the world's first, was crushed into pulp under the terrifying mountain array, and the Tangtai Ninghua actually united the people of Qingguo, and the dragon swallowed the flames above their heads, destroying this army was as simple as crushing ants, and the results of the war were already obvious.

But something unexpected happened, everyone could hear the sound of breaking the sky from the clouds, and a whole city suspended in the clouds floated towards the Concubine Pass, and the city began to fall, smashing the Stone Pass with a boulder wall weighing 10,000 catties.

The terrifying array was buried under the rubble, and by the way, several dragons were killed, and the plight of the remnants of the Yin Kingdom was solved, and the war horses ran around to avoid the falling rocks from the clouds, and the fear in their eyes could not be dispelled, and they let out a sharp neigh.

In such a terrifying situation, the army of Tantai Ninghua was still standing firm in the snow, intending to fight to the death and launch a final attack, and above their heads, there was a sound of metal grinding, like the low laughter of Hades.

Everyone saw the scene of their lives, the steel spirits from the clouds stepping on the snow, their bodies covered in steel, holding a man-high heavy sword in their hands, dragging an extremely long stream of qi flames behind them.

On the iron armor on their chests, there are eagles soaring.

The Northwest Eagle, which soars.

This army that seems to come from outside the world has subverted everyone's imagination, and Tai Ninghua has no idea of organizing the army to resist or even retreat, and the steel demon god from the Yin Kingdom launched an attack on the Concubine Pass, sweeping the entire battlefield with that one-person-high heavy sword or battle axe, this scene is as terrifying as the king of Hades swielding a life-killing sticker in the world, they charge and trample on the battlefield unscrupulously, leaving a sticky one behind them

Blood Mud.

At the last moment, the third prince of Da Yin, Chu Xuanzhao, slashed several dragons with unprecedented courage, all the way to the front of Tantai Ninghua, and the kings met in the wind and snow, and they held the weapons in their hands for the final battle.

This army from the Yin Kingdom was exposed to the world for the first time, before the Wind Eagle Iron Cavalry was completely wiped out, but the old things were always replaced by new things, and this new army completely abandoned the previous way of charging on war horses, and instead stuffed the cavalry into this giant armor that was nearly three people tall and was called Iron Shura.

The news spread all over the world at the speed of a spark, and the Yin State had a flying cavalry army!

Flying cavalry army!

Prior to this, only the Zhao dynasty could control the sky, and when Long Wumastiff dragged his injured body back to Luoyang City, the nine generals of the Dragon King, who had never tasted defeat, brought the news of the destruction of the dragoon army to Zhao Wentian, and the sleepy emperor was so frightened that he almost rolled off the throne.

Before this, the Dragon Protector army had never had the experience of dying in a foreign land, but the people of the Yin Kingdom had done all this!

The young emperor roared and smashed the paperweight on the sandalwood table, and roared at the trembling officials: "This is impossible! How is this possible! How can there be a flying cavalry army in this world?!"

Empress Zhao, who was sitting behind the main hall, looked at the angry emperor, Her Royal Highness the princess above ten thousand people, and a rare trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.

At the concubine gate, all the previous offensive methods in the history of the war of the Iron Shura world, smashed through the walls of Lijing City in one breath, and Chu Xianzhao, who was covered in blood, dragged the decapitated Tantai Ninghua into Lijing City, and the people knelt down in front of him, and admitted their stupidity, declaring that Tantai Ningsu was their emperor, and Tantai Ninghua was just a traitor.

In order to ensure the stability of the upper position, Li detained hundreds of people from the imperial family as hostages in Li Jingcheng, holding the life and death of these important people, when the usurpation of the throne was successful, these people naturally became the top priority of his care, they also tried to escape, but they were all captured by the ruthless means of the Tai Ninghua, and now with the empress's entry into the city, they were rescued from the dark prison.

Only those courtiers who supported the rebellion of Shantai Ninghua now have two different opinions in the city, some people think that these rebellious ministers and thieves should be executed in front of the temple, in order to comfort the souls of the innocent people who died in the hands of Shantai Ninghua, only with a painful lesson can deter the younger generations, tell them what the end of the rebellion is, but some people think that there are many traitors, and now it is appropriate to deal with these traitors by means of Huai Rou, and execute those who are guilty of serious crimes, and the rest of the people are imprisoned in the black prison according to the severity of the punishment and sent to the frontier。

With the arrival of Tie Shura, the pattern that should have been victorious was reversed in an instant, and now their opinions are no longer important, and these people of Li Jing City can only watch the Yin Guo Iron Horse enter Li Jing City, no matter what

No matter how unwilling they are in their hearts, they can only choose silence now, which is also remorse.

In the end, Chu Xiaohua walked into Lijing City with Tantai Ningsu, and announced to everyone that Tantai Ninghua was a usurper, and Yinguo would always be an ally of Shuyue.

From this moment on, Yinguo officially signed an eternal alliance with Shuyue.

......

......

In a house covered with falling snow, all the bright colors are covered in frost and snow, and from a distance it looks like an ink painting.

Chu Xianzhao was holding the fragrant and warm liquor in his hand, and there was a lingering sound of the piano in his ears, and the pine trees beside him were covered with ice.

He drank jugs and jugs of wine tonight, and seemed to be a little drunk, and looked at the woman in the red robe who knelt on the mat and played the harp for him, her hair as white as snow on the ground.

Not long after he entered the city, he received an invitation from this woman, and after thinking about it, he decided to take only one sword with him.

But since he stepped into this room, the woman had been playing the piano, and Chu Xianzhao didn't speak but looked at her quietly, drinking the liquor she had warmed for herself.

As soon as the song ended, Chu Xianzhao applauded her softly: "The song you played is very good, it reminds me of an old man, this is an elegy, right? ”

The woman in the red robe smiled and said, "This song is not played to the dead in the city, but to the dead wife of a husband." The poor woman watched her husband go out for the country, thinking about it all day and night, thinking about it for a long time, and finally died of illness on the bed, and when her husband returned to the field and pushed open the door of the house, she found that she only saw the bones of her wife, and she was so grief-stricken that she played this sad song, what did the three princes think?"

Chu Shuzhao said with a bdifferent expression: "What do you want to say to me with this song? You killed her, she told me that I want to live a peaceful life, to be a mother and give birth to children for the man I love, it was you who killed her, isn't it ironic to play such a tune to me?"

The woman said disapprovingly: "What does she want? Could it be that the Third Prince can give it to her?"

Chu Xianzhao poured a glass of liquor and walked to her side, when the woman stretched out her hand to take the liquor, Chu instantaneously poured the wine on the ground, the hot wine mixed with frost and snow emitted a warm mellow fragrance, the woman was not annoyed, and her gaze gradually became blurred when she looked at him.

Chu Xianzhao said: "This so-called alliance of eternity, probably means that after Shuyue, it will be the vassal state of the Yin Kingdom, just like Xilin, only by doing this can you comfort those soldiers of the Yin Kingdom who died on your land, originally all this should not have happened, this is all your choice." ”

The young man suddenly smiled and said: "You have made some choices, we naturally have to make some choices, no matter what the result of the choice is, this is not something you can decide, the loser must look like a loser."

Either you go to be a dog or you die, and now many people have made a choice, what about your choice?"

The ice cube in front of the eaves is crystal clear, but it is a little dark under a closer look, the blood robe on the vermilion-robed woman representing the blood python gang elder seems to wrap her in blood, but the bloody aura exuded by the young man in front of him is so strong, he doesn't know how he survived in the battle of Concubine Pass, but the price must be far beyond his imagination.

Chu Xianzhao looked at the woman with pitiful eyes, and said slowly: "We returned to Shuyue with Tantai Ningsu this time, the original intention was good, so that the people of Shuyue could see the sincerity of the ally of Yinguo, and in the end we won this war, but then we also fell into a dilemma, and we completely angered the Qing'an Dynasty when we lost both!"

The woman's eyes were gloomy, she really didn't expect that her father, who was extremely human right, actually had a relationship with the Qing'an Dynasty, she witnessed the scene of the giant dragon passing over the city of Lijing, and the terrifying mountain array and tens of thousands of soldiers could not stop this Yinguo cavalry, she said with some discouragement: "Chu Xianzhao, your Yinguo Iron Cavalry is really terrifying. ”

Chu Xianzhao smiled and didn't speak.

The woman in the red robe picked up the snow soaked in hot wine, gently stuffed it into her mouth, stared at him and said, "Just do you think it makes sense?"

Chu Xianzhao shook his head and said: "What is the meaning of many things, really meaningful things, most people don't like to do, otherwise why do you think I accompanied the mother and daughter all the way back to Shuyue, you must know that the royal family owes us a great favor to Yinguo, we have given what she wants, then we will naturally get what we want." As for your father, he has already received his punishment, so I want to come and meet you. ”

The woman's eyes widened and pretended to be innocent: "You don't want to come to ** me, do you?"
