106. Containment

At the end of the night, when the east was white, a team of reinforcements arrived in the distance.

Wei Qian smiled calmly: "The overall situation has been decided." "Look at the flag, this is the people of the cavalry battalion in the Jiangnan camp. It was the reinforcements that Wei Qian found with the tiger talisman.

As soon as the reinforcements arrived, the Tongyuan Sect people saw that the situation was not good and fled in the other direction.

"Niangniang, do you want to send someone to chase after you?"

"Isn't that okay?" The officials and the others walked up to the city wall after being safe, and when they heard that a general was chasing after them, they immediately retorted: "Poor Kou Mo chase, what if it causes them to fight to the death?" ”

"Yes, welcome His Majesty back to the palace first, this is the right way." Find Situ Yun, return to Daming Palace, and slowly send people to clean it up when the time comes.

"But what if these fugitives disturb the people?" Wang Zheng retorted: "There are still thousands of these demons, and if you choose a small city to attack, it will inevitably cause chaos." ”

"However, the snake has no head, and now that His Majesty is not here, how can we act without permission?"

Wei Qian pondered, and secretly let the avatar watch in the air. But after she saw the northern dragon qi rising, she understood that Situ Yun had best prepared.

So he said: "Waving the flag and shouting, sounding gongs and drums, General Liu sent three thousand light cavalry to pursue." But don't catch up, and drive them north. In addition, send someone to prepare a wolf smoke signal to greet the Jinling side. Emperor Taishang Shengming naturally knows how to do it. ”

After Wei Qian's order, he ignored the objections of others and let people clean up the battlefield. Record the names of soldiers who died in battle, and record the heads of meritorious soldiers by the way, so that they can be rewarded in the future.

"Speaking of which, Niangniang personally went into battle to kill the enemy, I don't know what the result was?" Xiangling said with a smile next to her.

Yang Kai tapped it, and then walked over with a strange expression: "Niang Niang is brave, good at riding and archery, and killing enemies in total...... Kill ......"

"How many kills?" The Wenchen next to him couldn't help but prick up their ears.

"One hundred and three."

"It can't be!" Scholar Mei's face changed: "You said that Concubine Ning's mother, women and children killed hundreds of people at once?" ”

"That's right, the bow and arrow used by the mother are specially marked. Niangniang had five quivers and one hundred and fifty arrows. Some people were hit twice, and only eight arrows fell off and were blocked by people. ”

But they did not believe, but went down to the city to see it. I saw one hundred and three corpses lined up, with arrows shot by Wei Qian stuck in them. There is a small plum blossom at the end of the arrow, which is the arrow mark that Wei Qian has always used.

What a terrifying archery achievement!

Although you don't know how to ride and shoot, you also know how much strength and persistence a person like Wei Qian who can shoot five pots of arrows in a row needs.

Even the generals and even the soldiers looked at the women on the city wall with a look of astonishment. Hundreds of people were punished in a row, and they belonged to the top ten people who killed the enemy in this battle.

The army admires martial arts, and when he saw what Wei Qian did, he couldn't help but admire.

"A hundred people, that's a bounty." Xiangling's face was innocent, not as much as those people next to her thought. "Niangniang, go back and ask your majesty for this money?"

The woman was dressed in a military uniform, shook her head slightly, and instructed Wang Zheng: "Forget about this palace, you will pay for the families of the dead in the name of the Queen Mother and Your Majesty." Alright, now all things are done. You are ready to welcome Your Majesty, and the palace will first go to the Queen Mother to report the good news. ”

Wei Qian left straight after speaking.

The ministers looked at the woman's back, and I don't know which official suddenly said: "This lady will not live long." ”

Yes, a woman who can be civil and martial, which dynasty and which generation can tolerate it?

Jia Yucun's eyes flashed, and he secretly glanced at Jia Lian: "Lord Yushi, Concubine Ning is in danger!" ”

Jia Lian is stronger than his father, at least he can understand the situation, and his face is a little unsightly.

If something happens to Concubine Ning, will their Jia Mansion rely on Jia Yuanchun? What will happen to his knighthood then? According to Jia Yuanchun's love for his younger brother, as well as the old lady's thoughts, I am afraid that his title will have some twists and turns.

Of course, Jia Lian has the confidence to deal with it, but more is better than less, if he can save Wei Qian, it will be good for Jia Wei's second mansion.

"What do you do?"

"This matter needs to be so ......" Jia Yucun whispered beside Jia Lian, Jia Lian's expression changed uncertainly, and it was difficult to choose.

However, it was said that the remaining party of the Tongyuan Sect saw that the situation was not good, and Huang Bao led everyone to flee to the south. However, when passing through Jinling City, Emperor Taishang issued an order to block the southern road and force the Yuanjiao to go north.

The Emperor Taishang was not stupid, he immediately understood what she meant when he saw the signal sent by Wei Qian, and then beat the water dog to force Tongyuanjiao to the northeast road.

"But what's in the Northeast? Could it be that Yun'er is really guarding over there? Is this really their collusion? ”

A lie told a thousand times is the truth, and the most outrageous excuse has some truth when one incident after another is used as evidence.

The Emperor Taishang could not have imagined that these two people had a very high degree of tacit understanding, and Wei Qian used his incarnation to find out where Situ Yun was, and prepared to send the Tongyuan Sect to Situ Yun from all walks of life.

Situ Yun and Wei Ying were in the center of the army at the moment, and he was slowly rushing to Jinling City by mobilizing troops and horses from Yangzhou and Suzhou.

Suddenly, I received a report from the front, saying that the remnants of the Tongyuan Sect had fled to the north.

Situ Yun's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered people to arrange troops and make dumplings firmly for the people of Tongyuan Sect.

The two armies confronted each other, and Situ Yun rode on his horse and laughed: "Tongyuan Sect traitor, I am here, don't you want to assassinate?" I'm going to give you a chance to compete! ”

In front, Situ Yun blocked the road, and then Wei Qian and Emperor Taishang ordered people to pursue, and finally forced the remaining 3,000 people of Tongyuan Sect to the west.

Looking at the smoke and dust all the way, Wei Ying asked curiously: "Brother-in-law, don't you chase it?" ”

"No, you don't." Situ Yun Chengzhu was in his chest: "There are people from the Jiangnan camp in the west, and I left a secret letter for them to continue to encircle." The art of war is cloudy, ten times more than the enemy, surround but not kill. Why get your hands dirty? Wouldn't it be better to force them to be tired of coping and go to a dead end on their own? ”

The three armies did not move the grain and grass first, and now where did the Tongyuan Sect go to scavenge for grain and grass? Hunger in the future can starve them to death.

Situ Yun said, and couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth. After all, he still had a wound on his leg, and he was pulling nerves every moment when he barely rode a horse. But in the end, it was a strong-willed person who endured the pain and led the army back to the palace.

Wei Qian ordered Liu Baohe to go after the army of the Tongyuan Sect, and then went to the Queen Mother to report it.

When the Queen Mother heard that Wei Qian had personally killed the enemy, she blurted out and praised: "What a female concubine." It's not in vain that my son was married to Ming Media back then. ”

With an eager face, Wei Qian was left in the palace.

Of course, Empress Dowager Chen knew the thoughts of those people outside, but she had already made up her mind that this kind of virtuous help must be left to her son. At present, Situ Yun's country is still unstable, and the emperor is here, so there is no need to worry about the concubine's chaotic government.

Moreover, Empress Dowager Chen was convinced of Wei Qian's "feelings" for Situ Yun, and even ignored the hints of the concubines, and pulled Wei Qian to welcome Situ Yun back to the palace.

Wei Qian and Situ Yun made eye contact, and Wei Qianjiao said: "The concubine is fortunate not to be dishonored, and every qiē is acting according to His Majesty's plan." ”

took the initiative to throw away the credit, Situ Yun pretended to laugh: "It is also the concubine who executes it well, and the ministers did not obstruct it." After returning to the palace, I will reward them one by one. ”

After sweeping their eyes around the ministers who were kneeling and bowing, Jia Lian and Jia Yucun immediately said: "Your Majesty, Niang Niang is virtuous, a qiē plan has been prepared for a long time, how dare I and other courtiers take credit?" ”

Three or two sentences characterize this matter. This is Situ Yun's intention, even if someone wants to question it? As long as the people believe it, and the two of them did come up with the results of the battle to pit the Tongyuan Sect. Doubts are also useless.

"After this incident, His Majesty's popularity among the people is enough for him to sit firmly on the throne of the dragon, and even the Emperor Taishang will not be able to depose him lightly." Wu Lao Xiangguo smiled bitterly, I am afraid that this struggle between imperial power and prime minister power has gradually come to fruition.

"It's just ......" Seeing Situ Yun and Wei Qian greet the Queen Mother together, Wu Lao Xiangguo sneered in his heart: "With such a smart concubine, how long can this majesty be able to tolerate it?" ”

At this time, Situ Yun would never attack Wei Qian in order to ensure his reputation. But secretly...... It's too easy for a concubine to die of illness in the palace.

After Situ Yun and Wei Qian said goodbye to the Queen Mother, Situ Yun looked apologetic: "It is the crime of the sons and daughters to disturb the Queen Mother this time." ”

"It's because Hongu is weak and difficult to help you preside over the overall situation. Fortunately, Concubine Ning is capable, and she finally didn't delay your business. You have to thank Concubine Ning when you go back. The Empress Dowager created an opportunity for the two, and when they did not meet the ministers, the two first came to Concubine Ning's palace for information exchange.

After Situ Yun learned the latest news from Wei Qian's side, he was relieved: "Thanks to the help of Concubine Ai, my reputation has finally been saved." ”

An emperor pays the most attention to two things. The right to be alive, the name after death.

This matter does not work well a little, and it is an infamy that has been satirized by later generations through the ages. But now, as long as it is done properly, it can be completely transformed into its own merits.

He ascended the throne for several years, and this kind of merit was needed to lay his foundation.

The two carefully matched their lines again and prepared to go to Jinling to meet the emperor.

"Concubine Ai has contributed a lot this time, I don't know what you want?"

"Nothing else." Wei Qian said coldly: "I just ask Your Majesty to give me the jade brocade clothes, so that the concubine can go on the road in peace." ”
