379.

"Hehe, joking with you......" Ren Xiaoyao looked at her affectionately, and his big hand slowly stroked her emaciated cheeks, full of love and pity: "It's hard for you, a woman is unfamiliar with this place in the capital, sleeping in the open every day, just to secretly protect me, a person who doesn't know martial arts, I will keep this affection in my heart for the rest of my life, Yueniang, you treat me so well, it really makes me feel sorry for you......"

When Luo Yueniang heard this, her beautiful eyes were suddenly covered with a faint mist, and she choked up: "With your words, I will die for you to block the knife, and it is worth it." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Ren Yao, I know that you are now in a high position, a very popular minister, I also know that you are now a general, tens of thousands of soldiers under your command, order the flag to point everywhere, don't dare to disobey, you have a heavy responsibility, for the court, for the people every day, you look smiling in front of others, but I know that you sit in the courtyard every day, looking at the sky, you have too many burdens in your heart, you are actually very bitter in your heart......"

"Ren Xiaoyao, I, Luo Yueniang, am just a powerless female bandit, I don't understand state affairs and politics, I can't share my worries and sorrows for you, the only thing that helps you is my martial arts, I want to be your shadow, protect you by your side, just like tonight, when you are in danger, you can think of me, you will care about me for the rest of your life, and you will not forget me......"

Luo Yueniang smiled and wiped the tears that kept flowing from her pretty face, looked at Ren Xiaoyao stupidly, and murmured: "Ren Xiaoyao, do you know what a shadow is?" It's the opposite of the sun, when you are dressed and angry, enjoying the cheers of the court and the people, and doing your best in the glory of this life, you can never see it, but when you are lonely and sad, you just need to turn around slowly, and you will find that your shadow has been silently following you, never leaving you......"

Ren Xiaoyao heard the tip of his nose sour, his eyes immediately turned red, gently hugged Luo Yueniang's delicate body in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her sideburns, and murmured: "No, you will not be a shadow, you are my wife, my wife, my daughter-in-law of my Ren family, and in the future, you will be the mother of my son Ren Xiaoyao, the grandmother of my grandson...... I wish to have one heart, the white head is not separated, Yueniang, don't go anymore, follow me, when I finish the current things, I will resign, and then take you away and fly high, the world is so big, you can go wherever you want, I can even take Mi'er and Yanran to Qinglong Mountain, and make a cameo appearance as bandits for a few days......"

Luo Yueniang sneered, buried her pretty face in Ren Yao's chest, greedily sniffed the familiar smell on his body, and then nodded lightly.

Ren Xiaoyao smiled, kissed her lovingly, and suddenly his expression froze: "Oops! Big things are not good! You protect me in secret every day, so you can see the appearance of me and my wife doing things in the light of you? That's not right, I'm going to criticize you...... Let's do it this way, next time we will do the same thing in front of them, we will have contacts and dealings, and we will not suffer from each other......"

"Bang!"

"Ahh

“……”

“……”

※※※

In the main building of the Xicheng Tower, the oil lamp is like a bean, and under the jumping light, Luo Yueniang's pretty face is more and more delicate and moving. Ren Xiaoyao held her hand and couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly, at this moment, he still had a feeling as if he was in a dream.

A woman who has not left the cabinet, alone in the capital silently guarding her sweetheart, I don't know how much she has suffered and how many sins she has suffered in the past half a month, thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyao's heart is more and more moved, and the more distressed she is. After the crossing, these wives he found, each of them has a deep affection for him, this is Ren Xiaoyao is currently the most satisfied, the fame and fortune of the official are fleeting, and the only one who really accompanies him for a lifetime is only the wife next to the pillow, fortunately, his luck is good, very good, he found a few wives who are very outstanding in both character and appearance, Ren Xiaoyao can't help but want to take the wives out together, and show off to the world.

Two by two, wordless, but sweet. Ren Xiaoyao and Luo Yueniang sat opposite each other, the two looked at each other silently, the sweetness and happiness in their eyes were like a jar of honey that had been overturned, thick but not greasy.

But there are people who have come out to disturb this rare tranquility.

There was a knock on the door.

Ren Xiaoyao frowned, turned his head dissatisfied, and shouted, "Who? I don't care about you! Don't bother Lao Tzu! ”

Vinson's voice came cautiously from outside the door: "My lord, there is a son surnamed Xiao who wants to see ......"

Ren Xiaoyao was furious: "What kind of bullshit surnamed Xiao?" Lao Tzu is not a statue in the square, who wants to see it? Lao Wen, the more you mix up, the more you go back, let him get out quickly, don't make Lao Tzu angry! ”

Immersed in the joy and happiness of the reunion, he was interrupted rashly, and he couldn't help but lose his temper.

Luo Yueniang glared at him with disgust, "Can't you talk well?" You've always been so fierce to your subordinates? ”

"I've always been quite kind to my subordinates......" Ren Xiaoyao smiled, then lowered his face again, glared coldly at the door, and said evilly: "...... But I don't have such a good temper with those stupid subordinates who don't have the ability to see. ”

Wen Sen's embarrassed voice came: "Your Excellency, that Xiao Gongzi said that his name is Xiao Huaiyuan, and he has an urgent military situation to tell your Excellency, and he also said...... Also said...... This military situation is related to Shenlie Mountain and the life of the emperor......"

"Xiao Huaiyuan?" Ren Yao: "...... Is it still about the emperor's life? Damn it! That kid has been chattering all the time, and he can talk about big things bigger than the sky, didn't he fool me again this time? ”

I didn't want to see him, but I was worried that he was really in some emergency, after thinking about it, I glanced at Luo Yueniang again, Ren Yao gritted his teeth reluctantly, and said stupidly: "Okay, let him in, Wen Sen, by the way, arrange five hundred sword and axe men outside the door......"

Vincent was stunned: "My lord, what do you want a knife and axe for?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head and said viciously: "Later, if this kid surnamed Xiao doesn't have any emergency military situation at all, but comes to talk nonsense with me and talk about the sky, you will listen to me and throw the cup as a signal, and the knife and axe hands will rush in together and chop him into dog meat sauce......"

“……”

"Brother Ren, Brother Ren! Big things are not good! Emperor...... Your Majesty, he is in danger! ”

Before I saw him, I heard his voice. Ren Xiaoyao saw a depressed figure staggering into the door, and after stepping in, before he could see the person clearly, he began to howl and scream, and his voice was terrible, like a funeral.

"Someone! Get on the knife and axe, chop him up for me! Ren Xiaoyao didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly asked people to do it.

"Ahh Brother Ren, why is that? Xiao Huaiyuan's face was full of grievances.

"Ah, Brother Xiao, because every time I see you, you are pretending to be a ghost, and my little brother is very unhappy, so I want to chop ......you up," Ren Xiaoyao patiently explained to him.

"Ahh Brother Ren, the younger brother is wrong! ”

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, very good! Come on, the axeman is standing outside, don't come in yet, and I'll talk about it when I'm upset......"

The two of them were one after the other, as if they were singing on the stage, and Luo Yueniang, who was sitting on the side, hid her face and laughed wildly.

Xiao Huaiyuan saw Luo Yueniang's peerless appearance, and saw her chuckling silently on the side, and was stunned for a moment.

"Brother Ren, I don't know if this young lady is ......"

"Oh, she's my wife, your sister-in-law, don't have crooked thoughts, otherwise you don't have to wait for the knife and axe hand to come in, little brother, I will chop you up ...... myself" Ren Xiaoyao smiled at Xiao Huaiyuan, and bared his teeth not very friendly: "Do you know what 'Ku Ding Xie Niu' is?" The younger brother is willing to demonstrate it to the younger brother. ”

"Ahh It turned out to be my sister-in-law, who was offended, guilty of sin...... "Xiao Huaiyuan was sweating profusely and hurriedly gave a salute.

Knocking on the table casually, Ren Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows at Xiao Huaiyuan: "Come to give a gift?" ”

"Huh?" Xiao Huaiyuan's forehead began to sweat again: "No...... No. ”

"Huh?" Ren Xiaoyao frowned unhappily: "My Hua Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and what we pay attention to is the exchange of courtesies, and we welcome those who are sent to, not even a little meaningful, Brother Xiao, you are too rude." ”

"Giving you gifts has always been a blessing......" Xiao Huaiyuan muttered in a low voice.

"Presumptuous! It's so rude! Axemen ......"

"Ahh Brother Ren slow! Little brother, I really have an urgent military situation to tell you today! Xiao Huaiyuan hurriedly shouted.

Standing up Erlang's legs, Ren Xiaoyao shook twice, and then said slowly: "Brother Xiao, get straight to the point and get straight to the point." Say, what's the emergency military situation. ”

Speaking of the theme, Xiao Huaiyuan suddenly put on a frightened and anxious expression, and shouted: "Brother Ren! Big things are not good! Your Majesty, he is in danger......"

"Shut up!" Ren Xiaoyao couldn't hold back any longer, and said angrily: "Xiao Huaiyuan, don't keep talking about the four words 'in danger', don't joke about military affairs, if you are alarmist, I will try the general's military law with you!" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan was stunned, as if he didn't expect Ren Xiaoyao to be angry, and then hurriedly argued: "Brother Ren, I didn't make alarmist remarks this time, the emperor is in a very dangerous situation now!" ”

Ren Xiaoyao frowned, looked at him a few times, and found that he was not talking nonsense, so Ren Xiaoyao's face also became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?" Make it clear. ”

Xiao Huaiyuan wiped his sweat, swallowed his saliva, and said astringently: "Brother Ren, you have to send someone out of the city to go to Shenlie Mountain now, please ask the emperor to avoid it quickly, otherwise the emperor will be in danger, the emperor and you have calculated everything, but there is still one thing missing......"

"What's the matter?"

"The prince's private army, there was originally more than one, there were two, and the other one had never shown up, and it had been lurking at the foot of the northern part of Shenlie Mountain, with about 20,000 people. The crown prince has now completely attracted the attention of the two armies of Longwu and Longxiang, just to create an opportunity for his other private army to attack Shenlie Mountain from the north, when the emperor's forces around him are empty and unable to resist, and the two armies of Longwu and Longxiang are far apart, and it is too late to rescue...... Brother Ren, the emperor's current situation is very bad! ”

"What? Prince...... There are two private armies? Damn it! Why didn't you say it earlier? When Ren Xiaoyao heard the news, he jumped up in shock, pointed at Xiao Huaiyuan's nose and scolded.

Xiao Huaiyuan looked infinitely aggrieved, and said with a pout: "Brother Ren, the younger brother also just found out......

"You...... You ......" Ren Xiaoyao pointed at Xiao Huaiyuan's nose, and wanted to scold him for a few swear words, seeing him pouting aggrievedly, his disgusting appearance made Ren Xiaoyao's scalp numb, so he had to give a thumbs up against his will, and praised: "...... Damn it! You can do it! ”

Immediately, Ren Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "Slow!" How do you know? It's been a whole day since the emperor left Beijing, and I ordered the closure of the four cities, where did you know the news? Brother Xiao, the situation is critical, don't sell Guan Zi anymore, this matter is related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. ”

Xiao Huaiyuan licked his dry lips, his expression became sad, and he said astringently: "Of course I know it from the Prince's Mansion, Brother Ren still remembers Miss Sisi in the Prince's Mansion?" I found out under the pillow in her room just now when I found a note she left for me, and that's when I found out......"

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes widened, and he said blankly: "I don't remember, I have no contact with the Prince's Mansion, except for you, I don't know anyone else at all." ”

"It's the girl who plays the lute."

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head, cautiously glanced at Luo Yueniang, who seemed to be smiling, and quickly denied it: "Don't talk nonsense, this official has always been clean and self-conscious, and has always kept a distance from other women, not to mention playing the pipa, I don't know the girl who plays cotton, I don't know it, I don't know it, I definitely don't know it." ”

Xiao Huaiyuan glared at him coldly: "It's the girl who sat in your arms and poured you wine at the prince's flower viewing party last year, so you always have an impression, right?" The one with a thin waist and a big chest......"

"Oh-" Ren Xiaoyao suddenly realized, and slapped the table hard: "It turned out to be ...... Ahem, to the point, don't talk nonsense! Lao Tzu sat in his arms and didn't mess up, and he didn't do anything to her. ”

Xiao Huaiyuan said with a bitter expression: "Sisi...... She is actually the prince's confined, and she has always been in love with the prince, but ...... At last year's cherry blossom viewing party, the prince pushed her into your arms without hesitation, treating her as a gift that could be given to each other, and since then, Sisi has been cold to the prince......"

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at Luo Yueniang with a sad face, and interjected: "Let me emphasize again, it was the prince who insisted on pushing me into my arms, I really didn't touch her, you know, Young Master Ben has always been quite shy about women......"

Xiao Huaiyuan looked at him with disdain, ignored him, and said to himself: "...... Later, by chance, I met Sisi in the prince's mansion, and at that time she was full of sorrow and frowned, so I often enlightened and comforted her, and came and went......"

"You hooked up." Ren Xiaoyao looked at him coldly, this kind of bloody plot is too old-fashioned and has no new ideas, he can even continue to say the following follow-up plot: "You went to the prince's mansion to run an errand, it was originally for another purpose, and now the prince's personal woman is deeply dissatisfied with him, you just pushed the boat down the river and instigated her to collect intelligence around the prince......"

Xiao Huaiyuan clenched his fists, glared at Ren Xiaoyao deadly, and said angrily: "What incitement and demagogy? I'm sincere about Sisi! ”

Ren Xiaoyao sneered: "Really? Really, can you watch your beloved woman lying in the arms of other men every day and be indifferent? Brother Xiao, I can't see that you are so broad-minded, are you still a man? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan's face turned pale when he heard this, his expression was extremely painful, he grabbed his hair wordlessly, and his eyes were full of sadness and despair.

"I won't talk nonsense with you, I'll get the news out first......" Ren Xiaoyao stood up and shouted: "Vinson! Come on in! ”

Vinson hurried in.

"Prepare the horses! The general wants to go out of the city in person, and if there is an urgent military situation, he must report it to the emperor! Ren Xiaoyao straightened his clothes and armor and said loudly.

"Ahh Impose, adult! Vinson was shocked and hurriedly stopped.

How did this Lord Ren come out one by one? I almost died under the guards of King Shou just now, and now I have to go out of the city to deliver news, how do you think this adult has the potential to be an outlaw recently, where is the lively and lovely Lord Ren who was greedy for life and afraid of death?

"Brother Ren, you can't go, it's too chaotic outside the city, the crown prince and the emperor's army are fighting, it's too dangerous for you to go out of the city." Xiao Huaiyuan also stood up and persuaded.

"Ren Xiaoyao, let me help you go, I have martial arts, and I am not afraid of chaos." Luo Yueniang walked behind Ren Xiaoyao and said softly.

"No! How can there be a reason for a woman to charge into battle? Now the emperor's situation is critical, his life is in danger, the so-called lord humiliates the minister to death, this general is a loyal minister, how can he see the emperor in prison? How can this make me a courtier? Ren Xiaoyao looked sad and said with righteousness.

Everyone looked at Ren Xiaoyao with respect.

"My lord, your subordinates know your loyalty to the emperor, but the son of a daughter can't sit down. My lord, the garrison of the capital is particularly important, and the task of going out of the city to deliver news will be handed over to the subordinate brothers! Your subordinates will never let your adults down! Vinson's eyes were red with emotion, and he clenched his fists and choked up.

"No! Let me go! It's the duty of a courtier! Ren Yaoyao shouted sadly.

"Your Excellency, think again! Let your subordinates go! Vincent hugged the enthusiastic Lord Ren and urged urgently.

"Let go of me! Why are you holding me back...... I am a loyal servant! ”

"My lord, don't go ......"

“……”

“……”

Long.

Ren Xiaoyao stared at Wen Sen with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "General Ben's loyalty to the emperor, you all understand?" ”

Vinson clenched his fists and said loudly, "Understood! Subordinates vow to learn from adults! ”

"Okay, you send your brothers out of the city, I won't go......" Ren Xiaoyao finally smiled, looking very pleased.

Everyone is full of black lines: "......"

"What's that...... I'm too weak, and if I'm caught by the prince's army, I'm afraid they won't even have time to recruit me, so I won't be able to recruit anything, so I won't make trouble for everyone, quack......" Ren Xiaoyao smiled dryly, and explained with a snake.

“……”

"Wen Sen, send his brothers out of the city, go north, cross the Yangtze River, outside the Dongmen Town on the north bank, the Xiazhou border army Dong Cheng's department should have ended the battle, you immediately send someone to tell him, let him lead his troops to the foot of the northern part of Shenlie Mountain, annihilate the prince's other private army, King Qin's escort!"

"Yes!" Vinson commanded loudly.

"Also, send my brother to Shenlie Mountain, find a way to bypass the battlefield where the two armies are fighting at the foot of the mountain, and pass the news to the emperor and Feng Qiudao, and ask Feng Qiudao to quickly divide his troops up the mountain to protect the emperor!"

"Yes!"

The heavy north gate of the city quietly opened in the night, and a dozen fast horses galloped out of the city in the darkness, braving the slightest drizzle, and after stepping on the suspension bridge, they turned and galloped away in two directions. After the knights had left the gates, the heavy gates were quietly closed, and then the winches creaked and turned, and the drawbridge gradually retracted, and soon peace was restored.

Xiao Huaiyuan and Ren Xiaoyao stood silently on the city tower, watching the knight on the horse beat the horse away, Xiao Huaiyuan's expression was sad and lonely, his eyes were staring at Bei Ren intently, not knowing what he was thinking.

"A manly man, for the woman you like, you have to snatch her back, so that you can live up to the woman's deep affection for you. Brother Xiao, for the sake of the two of us getting along well, and you have helped me many times, let's say, where does that Sisi girl live in the Prince's Mansion now? While the prince was out of Beijing, Lao Tzu sent someone to secretly get her out for you. Ren Xiaoyao patted Xiao Huaiyuan on the shoulder and smiled.

Xiao Huaiyuan lowered his head and said sadly: "She...... Now at the foot of Shenlie Mountain, in the prince's military tent......"

Ren Xiaoyao was taken aback: "Won't it?" The prince took her with him on the march and in battle, and she was favored to this point? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan's face twitched, and he said in a low voice: "The night before the prince left Beijing, she inadvertently knew this secret, originally the prince planned to kill her, maybe the prince was reluctant to kill her, so in order to prevent this secret from leaking out, the prince took her with him and did not let her contact anyone, Sisi picked up the gap that night before writing a note and put it under her pillow, she knew that I would go to her room......"

Ren Xiaoyao sighed, he couldn't help it, the two armies under Shenlie Mountain were fighting, and unless the prince was defeated, he would not be able to rescue a woman from the thousands of troops.

Ren Xiaoyao looked at Xiao Huaiyuan steadily, for a long time, he held Xiao Huaiyuan's hand and shook it, and shook it again: "Brother Xiao, you are very good!" Very capable! Really, for the first time, I felt inferior to you. ”

Xiao Huaiyuan smiled bitterly: "It's nothing, I'm just passing on the news, it's the former soldiers who really fought bloodily......

Ren Xiaoyao didn't wait for him to finish, turned around and left, pouting as he walked, and said secretly: Who told you this...... can make the prince cuckold, I'm afraid there has never been one since the founding of the Chinese Dynasty, this is not a skill?

Thinking of the green patch on the prince's head now, he didn't know it, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but smile happily.

Damn it! It's so relieving! Xiao Huaiyuan, this kid is a talent!

※※※

At the foot of Mount Shenlie.

At this time, it was almost dawn, the sky was still drizzling, the battle under the mountain was becoming more and more tragic, the plains and hills were as far as the eye could see, full of corpses and stumps and broken arms, and the fires that were burning everywhere, some of which were extinguished by the rain, turned into billowing smoke, and filled the battlefield with rivers of blood, making this extremely cruel battle more and more hazy, just like the state of mind of the soldiers when they fought bloodily. What is this war for?

A rebel adjutant general exhausted all his strength, stabbed the steel knife in his hand into the chest of a Longwu soldier, blood burst out, when the soldier opened his frightened eyes, fell to the ground weakly, and his whole body kept twitching, the rebel general quickly drew his knife, mercilessly slashed through the soldier's neck, and then he quickly turned around and pounced on another Longwu soldier.

After slaying several enemies with his bloody courage, the lieutenant stood up straight, stretched out his blood-stained hand, held the helmet on his head, and opened his confused eyes to scan the sound of fighting around him that had gradually faded away.

Then he gritted his teeth, wiped the blood stains on his face, spat on the ground again, put away his knife, turned around and ran towards the prince's military tent.

"Your Highness, Your Highness......" The adjutant general staggered and knelt on the grass in front of the military tent, crying out in mourning.

"What?" The soft curtain of the military tent was lifted, and the prince's cold face appeared in front of him.

"Your Highness...... Withdraw, Your Highness! The brethren suffered heavy casualties, and could no longer be stopped, and now our army was less than 10,000 men, but the enemy was several times larger than ours, and they were about to put themselves in position and surround us...... Your Highness, withdraw, the brothers have been robed for many years, and the last general can't watch them die! His Royal Highness ...... "The lieutenant general knelt in front of the prince, and the five-foot-tall man cried with tears on his face and howled in grief.

"Huh!"

The blade, which flashed with a cold and cold light, quickly slashed through the neck of the lieutenant general, and then disappeared. The adjutant general's wailing stopped, his eyes widened, and he stared at the prince's sneering face in disbelief, and soon a trace of blood appeared on his neck, and then the blood marks became wider and deeper, and the scarlet and even steaming blood flowed out.

The lieutenant's body trembled a few times, and then he fell softly at the prince's feet, his hands clutching the grass on the grass, his knuckles gradually white, as if full of unwillingness and resentment, and then gradually let go, and the whole person was silent.

"If there is anyone who slows down the heart of our army, cut it!"

Facing the numb faces of the soldiers outside the tent, the prince said this coldly.

Then he turned his head sideways, looked at Beiren of Shenlie Mountain, and said lightly: "Order the whole army, grit your teeth and resist until the last moment, - the moment when Lone is about to succeed!" ”
