The snow fell for two days, and did not stop until noon on the third day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The entire capital is wrapped in thick snow, and from a distance, it looks like a pure and dreamy ice and snow world.

As the sun peeks out of the clouds, the snow begins to melt, and trickling down the eaves of the house, destroying the tranquil world.

After two days of silence, the capital was lively, with the wooden wheels of horse-drawn carriages leaving long ruts on the snow-covered ground, and pedestrians wrapped in thick clothes, despite the bitter cold of winter, running around.

In recent years, the nobles' farms outside the city have also delivered long-delayed harvests, and teams of horse-drawn carriages have run over the avenues that are gradually frozen into ice, adding a bit of noise to the capital.

On the side of the street and in front of the door, on the bare branches, the red lanterns are hung high, and the atmosphere of the New Year is getting more and more intense.

Everything was as peaceful as in previous years, but many officials in the DPRK and China began to frown.

"We've had two days of snow here, and it hasn't had any impact, but the grasslands to the north have been hit by a snow disaster."

Qi Jinzhi's expression was solemn, and he sat cross-legged on the big kang near the window and talked to Gu Jialuo.

Outside the window, under the eaves hangs a row of sparkling ice cubes, which are condensed by flowing snow. There are big and small, thick and thin ice cubes, but each one proves to the world how cold the weather is outside.

"The temperature on the grassland plummeted, countless cattle and sheep were frozen to death, and the herdsmen on the grassland were cut off from their livelihoods,"

Qi Jinzhi picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of hot tea, and sighed worriedly: "I'm worried that those Tartars will attack the border city if they are in a hurry." ”

Qi Jinzhi is not alarmist, nor is it unfounded, but a reasonable speculation based on the experience of previous years.

Gu Jialuo also sighed, "Yes, although the Wuliang Ha Sanwei in the north has long been submitted to the imperial court, they are alien races after all, once they encounter a disaster, they will definitely invade the south and pass the disaster on to the people of the border city." "Nomads have always been like this, and when they can't get by, they turn around and plunder and kill the farming people.

Nowadays, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court stationed in that area are divided into two parts, one part is naturally the guard station, and the other part is the Liaodong camp of the Gu family.

The matter involves his own family, how can Gu Jialuo not care?

Lifting the teapot and adding some tea to Qi Jinzhi, Gu Jialuo said: "I received news from home, saying that the sage summoned my grandfather to the palace the day before yesterday, and discussed it with the cabinet for half a day. The mother also said that the grandfather may have to go to Liaodong in person. ”

The Gu family has been operating in Liaodong for decades, not to mention how powerful they are in the local area, the name Gu Chong alone is a big banner.

With his old man personally sitting in Liaodong, those Tartars have to weigh even if they want to do it.

But the problem is that Gu Chong is no longer young. Although the body bones are tough, if it is about killing the enemy on a horse, it is not as good as a young man.

Gu Jialuo was worried that after his grandfather went to Liaodong, the Tatars really attacked the pass, and the war was inevitable, and the sword had no eyes on the battlefield, if his grandfather had a ......

She hurriedly shook her head, not daring to think about it any further.

Qi Jinzhi knew what Gu Jialuo was thinking, reached out over the kang table, held Gu Jialuo's hand, and persuaded softly: "Don't worry, my grandfather has been riding horses all his life, and he has seen all the winds and waves, how can he not deal with a handful of hungry and cold Tartars?" ”

Not to mention that there are still 30,000 elite soldiers trained by Gu Chong himself in the Liaodong camp, and there are not one or two capable young generals under his command.

Gu Jialuo was not persuaded so easily, and smiled bitterly, "I believe in my grandfather's ability, I, what I'm really worried about is not the Northeast, but, but there!" ”

The index finger pointed in the direction of Miyagi, and the meaning was self-evident. The external enemy is not terrible, but the terrible thing is the internal strife, and once the internal strife and the foreign enemy attack at the same time, the consequences are really unimaginable.

Qi Jinzhi's expression became more and more serious, leaned forward, and asked in a low voice, "How is the plan over there?" What progress has been made? ”

The bait has been dropped, just waiting for the big snake to come out of the hole.

As time passed, Qi Jinzhi's nerves became more and more tense, and sometimes he couldn't help but worry: what if things really broke out and they couldn't control the situation?

After all, this time is different from the last 'Kudulu Incident', all kinds of powerful relationships are intricate, and there are a large number of forces involved, and if one is not done well, it may cause turmoil in the court and chaos in the capital.

If there is a day when the couple will be sinners of the Great Qi!

"Xiao Shisan said that everything is normal, the master's spirit is getting worse and worse, Liu Chuchu stays in front of the bed every day to serve the decoction,"

The corners of Gu Jialuo's lips curled slightly, and he said with a slight mockery: "Liu Chuchu's relationship with the master is changing day by day, and in less than ten days, the master has rewarded her with countless treasures one after another, and let Xiao Ba, who is the most useful, protect Liu Chuchu." The streets and alleys of the capital are all known, and the master and Liu Chuchu have a deep love for their 'mother and daughter'. Regardless of his physical weakness, the master specially ordered someone to go to the palace to ask the saint for an edict, wanting to give Liu Chuchu a seal. Now, Liu Chuchu is the hottest noblewoman in Beijing, if she hadn't stayed in the palace to serve the sick, she would have become a guest invited by all the noblewomen. ”

At the same time, Liu Chuchu, who was discussed by Qi Jinzhi and his wife, was very obediently guarding outside the main bedroom of Furong Garden, with a standard smile on his face, but his ears moved slightly, as if he was trying to listen to something.

In the bedroom, Emperor Xiao Ye of Daqi, dressed in civilian clothes, was sitting in front of Miaozhen's couch, his eyes full of distress and concern, "I haven't seen you for a few days, you have lost weight like this." Auntie, didn't you say that your body is no longer in serious trouble, why are you still like this? Could it be that those damn doctors didn't do their best? Or, I ordered someone to bring Qi Yao's family? ”

Miaozhen's face was sallow, and she had lost weight to a handful of bones, she lay on the couch weakly, and pulled out a smile with difficulty, "Brother, I won't be able to do it, it's not that the doctors are not dedicated, but that my life is up." In my life, I have suffered hardships, suffered sins, and enjoyed glory and wealth, although my parents are shallow, but there is also a brother, your dear eldest brother, even if I die immediately, I have no regrets. ”

"Auntie, don't let you say that, I—I won't let you have anything to do."

Xiao Ye's eyes flashed with water, and in a hurry, he didn't say anything 'me', he carefully held Miao's leathery hand, and repeatedly comforted: "Auntie, there are many strange people in the world, the waste of the hospital is useless, Qi Yao's family is seriously ill and can't go to the clinic, but there are always hidden miracle doctors in the mountains and countryside." You just have to bear and raise, I-"

Miao Zhen shook his head and interrupted him, "Brother, I know my own body, I invite you here today because I can't rest assured about a few things." While I'm still awake, I'll listen to you, and you can help me remember. When I go someday, I'll leave those things to my brother! ”

"Ah-" Xiao Ye wanted to interrupt Miaozhen's words several times, but seeing that her eyes were full of persistence, she still endured it and said with tears: "Say it, I, I promise you!" ”

Miao Zhen smiled, her thin face showed a childlike satisfied and bright smile, she calmed down her breathing a little, and then said slowly: "The first one is Chu Chu's child......"
