Helian Ding never knew that his sister was so stubborn.

"Are you sure you want this? The Buddha may not be as generous as it seems, maybe this is a trap set by him and the other ministers, one soft and the other hard, just waiting for you to jump down."

Helian Ding soothed his sister's affection.

"If you want to lead troops from Western Qin to attack Guzang, I am the most suitable target, once there is a real change in Beiliang, I will definitely be used, why do you want to sacrifice like this?"

"Because Mulan may not be able to wait this long. If he really falls into Bei Liang's hands, at least Brother can save him back."

Helian Mingzhu's face turned indescribably pale, "A hero like him will never die casually, but if it is a conspiracy, he may not be able to prevent it. I don't feel comfortable with other people......"

"At the end of the day, it's for Mulan."

Helian Ding sighed again and again, "You like Mulan won't know, I actually proposed marriage to him, but he didn't mean to marry you at all. If you have a marriage contract with the Buddha, he will not dare to fall in love with you. You're completely out of love."

"I'm just going to let go completely, brother." Helian Mingzhu smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Actually, I like a man like His Majesty, but I don't like his harem. I am different from Mulan because he is different from other men. I've seen men like this, and the men in the world can't see them in my eyes anymore. If you marry if you are wronged, it is better not to marry and do what you feel is meaningful."

She let her go to comfort her brother, "Since Your Majesty said that it was an expedient measure, then it must be a word, I just went to live in the palace for a few days. Anyway, I'm used to being with Mrs. He before, so you don't have to worry about me. It's best if Mulan is fine, if something really happens to Mulan, what do you want me to do? Do you spend the rest of your life regretting that you can't help with anything?"

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

In fact, judging from the values of this era, Tuoba Tao is indeed a good match for all aristocratic women. The Xianbei nobles of this era did have many monogamy, but Helian Mingzhu was not a Xianbei person, but a princess of the Xia Kingdom, which determined that she could only marry the emperor unless she married the Xianbei clan.

It is impossible for the ministers of Wei to let a princess with a brother with military power marry someone else, she will either not marry or marry the emperor for the rest of her life, and there is no third way to go.

It is the wish of many women to become a human being, such as Princess Xingping in Beiliang, Princess Lelang in Beiyan back then, and so on.

But as Helian Mingzhu said, when she saw the two excellent men who might be the most brave and upright in the world, the others couldn't see it, but she couldn't accept Tuoba Tao's messy harem, so being single for a lifetime was no different from entering the palace to fulfill a marriage contract.

What's more, Tuoba Tao also agreed to let Kou Qianzhi divinate the discord between the two, which ruined the marriage.

Helian Mingzhu couldn't accept that hero, her benefactor died in a foreign land so miserably, even a little bit might not be able to bear it, so she could only gamble.

'There are countless women in this world who love Mulan......

Helian Mingzhu smiled at the corner of his mouth.

'I may not be the purest one, but I am the one who is the most open-minded.'

"What? Helian Mingzhu agreed to enter the palace?" When Tuoba Tao heard the reply from Su Hejun, he thought he had heard it wrong, he was reviewing the fold at this time, and when he heard the news, the pen was shocked, and Zhu Pi drew a long stroke, which ruined the payment.

Tuoba Tao is also willful, and he completely covered up the wrong painting with cinnabar, threw away the pen, and bowed his head to ask His Royal Highness Su Hejun.

"Are you going to marry me?"

It's finally grinded down!

She really cares about her brother's future!

Su Hejun glanced at Tuoba Tao sympathetically, "She promised to make a marriage contract first and enter the palace to be married. Helian Gong means that when His Majesty comes back, he will ask Kou Tianshi for divination."

That's what it means to be a show.

"In addition, Helian Zhishui, as a family member for marriage, will be in the capital and will also live in the West Palace."

Even the hostages were left behind, and Helian was full of sincerity.

"I don't understand, am I so ugly? Or is it an eccentric personality? Or is it an abomination of words?" Tuoba Tao touched his face.

"Why is Helian Mingzhu reluctant to enter the palace?"

Su Hejun originally wanted to say that people just don't like you, but he felt that his head was about to be broken when he said this, so he had to pout his lips and think of a statement that would not make Tuoba Tao angry: "I think that Princess Helian is willing to enter the palace, I am afraid that it is not for the future of Helian Gong, but that Hua Mulan, who has no news, will have an accident."

"You mean ......"

Tuoba Tao felt like he was going crazy.

"Ahem, maybe the princess has a crush on General Hua......"

Su Hejun covered his mouth and pretended to cough, but in fact, the corners of his mouth grinned.

"What a mess!" Tuoba Tao was angry and funny, "I'm not as good as Mulan?"

He patted his chest.

"At least I'm more handsome than her, and I'm much more powerful than her!"

I'm still the emperor!

Is it really normal for you to be more handsome and physique than a woman?

When I thought that my Great Wei relied on a monarch like you to fight in the north and south, I was very worried about those soldiers......

Su Hejun lowered his head, not wanting to fight (ride) (li) Tuoba Tao anymore.

"There is no need to say this gossip. Speaking of Mulan. [,！ There's something even funnier." Tuoba Tao pulled out a letter from the bookcase.

"This is a letter sent by Li Shun before the accident, because it was not a military newspaper, so he came later, and it was left ...... when he was in Qin Khan City."

Su Hejun stepped forward to take the letter.

Tuoba Tao has his own set of channels, and this letter did not go from the Egret official, I am afraid that it is Li Shun's secret letter.

When I opened it, Su Hejun suddenly sprayed.

"Poof! Ginseng Mulan 'disrespectful yin and yang, chaotic betrayal of morality'? Well, Hua Mulan is a man, and she is suspected of being lucky...... "Su Hejun is about to go crazy," just her 'color', should anyone believe it?" If she loves women, then it is called disrespectful yin and yang! "

"It's just a bit of fun."

Tuoba Tao waved his hand, "Since you have caught Li Shun's corruption, go back and copy the Li family, maybe you can copy the gold and silver sent by Bei Liang, and you can stay in Pingcheng for a long time."

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate to move the Li family now, Li Shungang went to ......" Su Hejun has a suspicion, "At present, Beiliang has not rebelled, and it is normal for the affiliated countries to give filial piety, not Beiliang, even Beiyan has filial piety to many courtiers, which is not a crime."

"In this way, Li Shun's death is cheap."

Tuoba Tao heard that it was inappropriate, and he didn't take it to heart.

When the two of them talked about Mulan, they were a little unable to lift their strength. Although Tuoba Tao didn't say anything, the northwest and northeast were inappropriate at the same time, and he went straight to the northeast, which showed that in his mind, Tuobati's brother was more important.

But he was willing to release Helian Ding for the sake of Mulan, and sent troops to help, and he, as the lord, could be regarded as benevolent and righteous to his courtiers.

Su Hejun has been dealing with the affairs of the Egret officials, and he also knows a little about the situation on He Mulan's side, and it is not a dangerous errand to send to Beiliang, and the twists and turns of doing something like her can be regarded as a ghost, and later even tossed the death of Daxingyi, which made his heart feel like a big stone has been pressed.

Both of them are worried about Mulan's situation, but both of them can't reach it, so when it comes to Mulan's affairs, they are a little cautious.

At this time, there was a sudden report from the guards outside, saying that it was Sima Di Ye Fei who was a high-roller tiger and asked to see him.

After Di Yefei received the high car tiger ben, he had the right to enter the palace at any time, he spent most of his time outside training or protecting the iron-smelting land, but every few days he would enter the palace to report, and now it was only two days before he left Pingcheng, and it was not time to come back at all, the guards outside reported that Di Yefei was coming, and Su Hejun and Tuoba Tao were stunned.

"How did he come back? Declare! "

Di Ye flew to a high position, got Cui Hao's point, and has been a low-key person.

He knew that he didn't have the ability of Hua Mulan yet, but it was definitely right to learn Mulan's style of acting, so for a period of time, Tuoba Tao and him got along quite well, plus Di Yefei was indeed a person with no bad intentions, and Tuoba Tao dared to use him with confidence.

Di Yefei, who is on the verge of spring breeze, now has his own house in Pingcheng, but he usually often goes to see the second elder and Hua Mutuo who live in Huafu.

Hua Mutuo is now learning literacy from You Ya, although it is a little late, but You Ya likes his pure character very much, and treats him no different from his own children and nephews.

Something happened to the Beiliang Mission, he could hide it from others, but he couldn't hide it from a number of people around Gu Bi, he was originally dealing with all the documents for Gu Bi, as soon as he saw that the Great Departure of the Beiliang Mission was dead, he immediately knew that something was wrong, this Beiliang must have something behind, and while hurrying to send a letter to Di Yefei, he was anxious to find out the news in the palace.

This investigation was half cold in his heart, His Majesty drove away in person, Helian Ding may be sent to the south of the Western Qin to deter the Northern Liang, and Jingzhong is just preparing to send an army to the city of Qin Khan to inquire about the news.

If you change to an unreliable coach, you will travel all the way to the mountains and rivers, and the march will be slow, something will really happen, and the bones will be cold when you arrive at the place.

The poor number of people were arranged to go to Beiyan randomly with Gu Bi this time, and they couldn't interfere in the affairs of the west at all, and the only people he could ask for help in Beijing were a few wolf heads and Di Yefei, and after asking for help on both sides, a number of wolf heads promised to convey the news of Beijing to him at any time, and Di Yefei rushed back directly from Pegasus.

Some people knew that Di Yefei was the same as themselves, and they didn't worry about others going to pick up Mulan, so it was self-evident what they were rushing back for.

So as soon as Di Yefei entered the hall, he immediately knelt down and asked for his life.

"Please lead the army and go to the city of Chin Khan!"

Tuoba Tao and Su Hejun glanced at each other, Su Hejun was not surprised, but Tuoba Tao didn't expect Di Yefei to give up the opportunity to go to Beiyan with Jun for the sake of Mulan.

Everyone knows that this trip to Beiyan will definitely be broken back, and the high-speed car people lack the combat merits to stand on their feet, and this is the best time to make meritorious contributions.

"If you do this, the other soldiers of Gaoche Tiger Ben are also willing?"

Tuoba Tao didn't believe that the Gaoche people were willing to save Mulan like him, after all, the military exploits in front of him were ready-made, and it was likely that going to Chin Khan City would just be a trip for nothing.

If the high-speed car man disobeys the yin and yang, it is likely to delay his big event, and he was originally going to send Su Hejun to run this trip.

Unexpectedly, Di Yefei nodded very affirmatively.

"The Gaoche Tiger Army fought side by side with the Tiger Army before, the two armies have a deep relationship, and the affairs of the mission are very important, and General Hua is kind to our Gaoche people, and we are willing to go!"

The matter of the coal mine was mentioned by He Mulan, Di Yefei never hid it from the patriarch and elders, and Gaoche Huben and Huben had marched together and practiced together for the matter of the Yuan family in Chenjun before, and the friendship was no better than that of other armies in Beijing

[,！ It was the high car Tiger Ben who heard that Hua Mulan and the Tiger Ben Army might be in danger, and they were all indignant and willing to follow Di Yefei to help.

Grace?

Could it be the grace of Jinshan to relieve the siege?

Tuoba Tao didn't expect the Gaoche people to be so faithful, and unexpectedly looked at Su and Jun.

Su Hejun thought for a while, and then said, "I think this matter is feasible. The high-rook tiger has now changed all of its weapons, although the number is small, but the weapons and armor are very sophisticated, and it is by no means a rabble. And this time it's not a battle, it's a long journey, and it's easy to march if there are not many people, and it's also suitable for a high-flying tiger......"

Su Hejun looked at Di Yefei, who was happy, and changed his words: "It's just that General Di doesn't know the path after all, and his experience is also insufficient, Helian Gong is going to Western Qin, and he is one south and one north, and it is not a good way, if the news is not clear, and General Di cares about it, it will be inappropriate."

Di Yefei was in a hurry, and bowed his head: "The last general is willing to act as a deputy general and go to Qin Khan City with the experienced general!" Let's give us a chance! "

Su Hejun and Tuoba Tao were waiting for Di Yefei to raise this point by himself, Di Yefei showed his attitude, and Tuoba Tao immediately nodded.

"That's very good, Su Hejun is calm and proficient in martial arts, so he led the high car and tiger to the city of Qin Khan. Although you are brave in martial arts, you lack experience, so you should listen to Su Hejun's advice in everything, and do not act on your own."

Di Yefei knew that Su Hejun and Hua Mulan had a good personal relationship, and he would never neglect this matter, so he was even more pleasantly surprised, and immediately thanked Jun En.

"The matter of Beiliang, I will entrust it to you."

Tuoba Tao arched his hand at Su Hejun and Di Yefei.

"For both public and private, Mulan can't be lost, I hope you can help me bring her back."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"The last will never give up!"

The war in Beiyan is tight, and Pingcheng has its own set of emergency measures, Tuoba Tao has not personally driven the expedition once or twice, Jingzhong has only made three days of preparations, and Tuoba Tao has already led Pingcheng's Yulin army out of the north.

Before leaving, Tuoba Tao sacrificed to heaven and earth, and appointed his eldest son Tuoba Huang as the crown prince and ordered him to supervise the country.

If something happens to Tuoba Tao this time, then Mrs. He may be the only mother who is the crown prince, but she did not die because of this incident and sat on the throne of the queen mother.

In the twenty-four military halls around Pingcheng, there were only less than 10,000 elite soldiers left at once, this time Tuoba Tao in order to fight for the battle, it can be said that it is the power of Pingcheng, the generals in the city in order to fight for the merits of the family and nephews, one by one also put on the battle, with private troops and grain and grass to go with the car.

This is the remnant of the Xianbei tribal system, the Great Khan personally conscripted, the tribal lords and patriarchs around the country are picking up cheap with the Great Khan, although the grain and grass and their own troops feed themselves, the spoils and benefits that can be obtained are also real, once the family has children and nephews who are very brave, and they can quickly pass guò This method is promoted.

Cui Hao was left behind to assist the crown prince of the prison country, Helian Mingzhu lived in the harem because of the marriage contract made by Tuoba Tao before leaving, just waiting for "asking for a name", Helian Ding took three hundred Yulin troops and three hundred personal soldiers out of the city secretly, and marched straight to Western Qin.

Everyone thought that the five-year-old prince Tuoba Huang must have dozed off after sitting on the throne for a while, who expected that although he was only five years old, his personality was very calm, and he sat on the throne all morning, and listened to the following hundred officials to discuss politics is also the same, sometimes the hundred officials are arguing about something, and the prince can even use the excuse of "I want to rest for a while" to immediately suspend the court discussion, and then wait for the hundred officials to calm down before continuing.

Tuoba Tao became the prince at the age of twelve, and he was just a martial prince before, and he was definitely not as good as Tuoba Huang when he was five years old.

And as the saying goes, "three years old looks at life", this prince is only five years old, and he already has the demeanor of a king, even Cui Hao, who did not think too highly of Tuoba Huang before, was shocked, and began to teach him with all his heart, praising him for having "his father's style".

Everyone knows that this prince was personally taught by Tuoba Tao and the Empress Dowager Dou, and there are female officials from the Langya Wang family who are close to serve, and when they see his bearing so extraordinary, they can't help but have a feeling of "famous teachers and high apprentices", so that Wang Muyun's family, which was originally unattended, has many people who propose marriage, and want to set a marriage in advance, and when she is released from the palace at the age of twenty-five, she will get married.

At this time, the world attaches great importance to the virtue of women, and the greatest thing is the ability to teach future generations.

The reason why Empress Dowager Dou is so respectable is because she taught an open-minded and promising monarch like Tuoba Tao as a woman.

Once Wang Muyun is engaged, even if Tuoba Tao returns to Pingcheng, it is impossible to set her up as a nanny, and many families have their own ideas, and they also go to Wang's house to ask for marriage.

In such a situation, the Yuwen family directly sent troops to seal the Wang family's house outside Beijing, so as to prevent Wang Muyun's parents from being annoyed to death by an endless stream of suitors and people with bad intentions.

On the seventh day after Tuoba Tao left, a letter from the city of Chin Khan shocked the government and the opposition.

The mission strayed into the Windy City in the desert and encountered a great storm, and the prince of Beiliang, Fuqu Bodhi, the princess of Xingping, and the chief envoy of the mission, Mulan, were all lost in the storm.

In addition, the marrying general Meng Yulong was seriously injured, about 1,000 of the 5,000 people of the Tiger Ben army were missing, more than 600 people were confirmed to be dead, 46 people from the Wei delegation were missing, 12 people died, and 19 people died, which can be described as heavy casualties, and most of the ministers sent by the Beiliang mission were killed or injured, and almost all of the people who survived were insignificant.

The remaining people, under the leadership of Mulan's left guard Na Luo Hun and the chief bookkeeper Yuan Fang, finally found the nearest oasis alive, but because they lost a lot of supplies, they also had a lot of precious wealth. [,！ The thing was buried by the wind and sand, so the whole army did not dare to leave the Windy City too far, and now it is trapped in the oasis.

Only a small fraction of the people broke through the desert and arrived at the city of Chin Khan to report the news.

There is water in the oasis, and the grain, grass and wheat flour of the Tiger Ben Army can probably support them for about a month, if the supply of Qin Khan City is not available after half a month, they can only abandon the oasis, stop searching for Princess Xingping, Bodhi Shizi and Hua Mulan, discard the belongings buried in Windy City, and go to Qin Khan City.

The news was an urgent report from the army, but even so, the letter had been sent at least more than two months ago. What is the situation on the Beiliang side, whether the Wei delegation waited for the rescue of Qin Khan City, and whether the missing person is alive or dead has become a mystery.

This matter is related to internal affairs and the next "Pingliang Policy", the prince of the prison country immediately ordered the Hou official Ling Su Hejun to lead the Bailu official to Beiliang to investigate the matter thoroughly, Di Yefei led the Gaoche Huben escort there, and on the second day after receiving the letter from Qin Khan City, the army left Pingcheng.

The five-year-old prince Tuoba Huang had just been in charge of the country, and he encountered a series of external troubles, and for a while, everyone at home and abroad was full of emotion, waiting to see how Tuoba Huang could respond.

At this time, Di Yefei and Su Hejun's men and horses completely abandoned their baggage and hurried towards Qin Khan City in the starry night.
