"Okay, go down and pack up your things, keep your mouth tight, and whoever asks will say let's go back to our hometown to raise the baby." When the master commands, let's go out. Yang Wanyin waved her hand impatiently, and when she got the maid out, she leaned on the soft collapse and sighed for a long time. According to the rules, she is now pregnant and wants to take the initiative to take a concubine for her husband, but her husband has not allowed it, and there is a precedent for the eldest sister to monopolize the king's favor, so she would rather bear the name of "jealous woman" and refuse many ladies to send concubines into the mansion.

Fang Caijun suddenly proposed to let her go to the island, and her first thought was the same as that of a maid, but then she felt that something was wrong. However, she doesn't plan to dig deeper. Outside the male lead, inside the female lead, the man makes a decision, and the woman follows is the smartest thing to do. Although she often envies her eldest sister for living so freely, there is only one Zhongshan King in the world, and her husband treats her with a thousand loves, so even if he really plans to take the newcomer into the house, she will smile and agree, as for the sting in her heart like a knife, there will always be a day when she will heal...

As the sun rises and the moon sets, the first snow of the winter finally falls as the north wind blows tighter and tighter. The people of Qingxian County got up early, saw that the world was silver and white, and quickly changed into the thickest winter clothes, and the rich people pondered calling friends to find a place with a wide field of vision to enjoy the snow and drink, while the poor people did not have this leisure, copied their sleeves, and walked through the streets and alleys selling sugar gourds, burning firewood or a mouthful of hot soup, hoping to earn enough food and clothing for the family to survive.

However, there are still people who are busier in such a snowstorm, and the official roads outside Qingxian County have been very lively recently, and from time to time there will be a tightly loaded convoy passing by. Although most of the convoy did not stop, and it was a night trip, it was still discovered by sharp-eyed people, and they talked about gossip in private, but after all, it was irrelevant, and in the end, no one mentioned it. If someone carefully counts the number of carriages, I am afraid that they will definitely lose their big teeth.

At this moment, in the general's mansion located in the middle of the military city, General Wu looked at the falling snow outside the door, and was circling around the hall like a trapped beast.

In previous years, when it came to such a time, he would take his proud subordinates into the mountains to hunt, and any snow fox, sable, and black bear would harvest some of them, and send the fur to the old house in Kyoto, and the old father would take care of it for him. But now he doesn't talk about hunting, he even has to hide in Tibet in his own mansion, for no other reason, it's all the King of Zhongshan!

The imperial history of the court has already come to investigate, and he has also led people to check all the defense lines, there are no loopholes, and it is absolutely impossible for the barbarian cavalry to enter Daqi quietly.

Princess Zhongshan couldn't say that she was plundered by thieves disguised as barbarians, but King Zhongshan refused to believe it and insisted that he send troops to attack the Northern Barbarians. This request is simply unreasonable, if it was someone else, he would have let the soldiers beat people to death a long time ago, but it was the king of Daqi Yipin, the well-known royal lineage.

Thinking of this, he sighed again, grabbed the teapot and took a sip, the tea was actually cold, and when he was about to get angry, a confidant general hurriedly walked in from outside the door.

"General, there is an urgent matter to return to the general."

General Wu frowned and asked casually, "What happened, why are you so panicked?" ”

The general glanced around vigilantly, and saw that there were no servants in the hall, and his face softened a little, but he still approached General Wu and whispered, "General, the spies from the north have sent news back." If there is a big event, let's open a secret room. ”

General Wu raised his eyebrows in shock, the spies in the north were still inserted by him with a lot of trouble at the beginning of his tenure, and they were not damaged in a few years, and there were only two left. In order to keep this dark line, he had already given an order not to act unless there was anything serious, so as not to end up with the annihilation of the whole army. Now that the dark line has finally come back after two years, it goes without saying that something big must have happened.

"Send someone to find Vice General Li and Vice General Zhang, and say in the secret room."

The partial general hurriedly responded, and soon found two deputy generals, and the four of them entered the secret room together, and seven or eight personal guards were arranged outside the door to guard them strictly, and even General Wu's concubine brought the tonic soup and sent it, but they were all forced back.

The secret room of the General's Mansion was originally intended to be used for strategic discussion in wartime and to prevent the enemy from spying on secrets. However, the Great Qi and the Northern Barbarians did not go to war for many years, and this became General Wu's small study, where some letters and belongings from Kyoto were stored.

Today, I suddenly received three foreign guests, but it seems a little cramped, and even the chairs are a little insufficient. Fortunately, the three lieutenant generals knew that the general was definitely not drinking tea and gossiping when he invited them in, so they stood in front of the table one after another, not only relieving the embarrassment but also showing respect for the general.

General Wu was very satisfied with this, and raised his hand to order the general, "The people are here, you can tell me what news the spies have sent." ”

The partial general hurriedly saluted, and only then did he whisper at the end, "General, the news from the north says that the princess of Zhongshan is indeed in the barbarian king city now, and she is also very favored by the second prince of the barbarians. In addition, the king of Zhongshan once led people to break into the royal city to rescue him, but for some reason there was no news. Later, the spies inquired in many ways and really discovered a shocking secret. ”

Everyone raised their hearts and urged urgently, "What secret? The barbarians want to invade my Daqi? ”

The partial general nodded and said, "The Northern Barbarians have suffered heavy losses in the past two years due to natural disasters, and they originally planned to invade our Daqi recently, but before they could send troops, they met the King of Zhongshan to save his wife. The two princes didn't know how to get the news with the king of Zhongshan, and after the two negotiated, the king of Zhongshan promised to exchange 50,000 loads of grain for the safety of the princess of Zhongshan, and the northern barbarians would no longer invade Daqi. ”

"What?" General Wu was so shocked that he directly dropped the jade paperweight in his hand, and the other two lieutenants also widened their eyes, and cold sweat instantly soaked through the clothes inside the armor. It turns out that Beiban actually has such a plan, if there is no such thing as Princess Zhongshan, wouldn't it be that the military city is already full of war. The Beiban is well prepared, but they are defenseless, the odds of victory are really less than fifty percent, if they are unlucky, maybe the city will be broken a long time ago...

"Bastard thing! For such a big matter, why didn't the spies come back with news earlier? Vice General Zhang was angry, which provoked the partial general to quickly explain for his subordinates, "Originally, the spies were going to report immediately, but they happened to encounter the plundering of Princess Zhongshan, so they waited a few more days." However, it is precisely because of this that I heard the big news of the treason of the Zhongshan King in the mouths of the two Fujin of the second prince of the Northern Barbarians. ”

General Wu frowned and thought for a long time before waving his hand and cautiously asking, "Is the news from a woman's mouth reliable?" ”

"I guess it's not wrong, those two women were very angry because the second prince doted on Princess Zhongshan, and they deliberately went to find fault but suffered a loss, and after getting drunk, they lost their vigilance and leaked their breath."

"Smack!" General Wu slapped the sandalwood table in annoyance, and said angrily, "This damn King of Zhongshan comes to the door every day, forcing me to not even dare to hunt." Unexpectedly, he secretly wanted to fund the enemy's food and grass, and ignored the entire Great Qi for a woman! It's hateful! ”

Vice General Zhang also echoed, "The general is right, who can guarantee that the barbarians will not invade Daqi if they get grain and grass, if they use these grains as military rations, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings?" ”

"That is, the general should immediately go to the court and inform the world of the behavior of the king of Zhongshan." The partial general was also indignant, but Vice General Li, who had never spoken, had a different opinion.

He coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, and then he said to General Wu, "General, my subordinates feel that this matter cannot be played to the court." If the plan is calculated, maybe the general will earn a lot of credit. ”

"Merit?" General Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and the slightest essence leaked out, and he asked, "What did General Li say about this?" ”

Vice General Li was at ease, but he still said in his mouth, "General, the King of Zhongshan is the king of Daqi, and the matter involves such a serious crime as treason, if there is no real evidence, it will be difficult for the general to win the trust of the emperor." It's better for us to think in the long run, and it's best to catch the current when the king of Zhongshan is trading with the Beiban, and even send troops to fight the Beiban by surprise. When the time comes, the human and material evidence will be complete, and then some barbarian soldiers will be sent into Beijing. The general successfully repelled the invasion of the Northern Barbarians, and captured the ghosts of the enemy, if the emperor does not reward the general with a marquis, the last general will be the first to scold him for being biased! ”

Hearing this, not to mention General Wu, even Vice General Zhang was also excited, "General Li is worthy of being the brain trust of our border army, and this strategy is really ruthless." A few days ago, there was news in the court that the crown princess was pregnant, and the emperor Xu is now also aware that Zhongshan is a needle in the eye and a thorn in the palm. We also did the emperor a great favor! ”

The partial general is also a clever one, so he should ask for an order first, "General, give the order!" It's time to make a difference! ”

"Haha!" General Wu laughed loudly, stood up and said proudly, "It is a great blessing that our border army has such capable and fierce generals!" ”

"The general is false!" Vice General Li bowed in unison, "Please give the general an order!" ”

"Okay, Vice General Li listens to the order!"

"From now on, the outside is loose and the inside is tight, and the first-class combat readiness! When the time comes, send your troops out! ”

"Yes!"

"General Chi will listen to the order and send people to keep an eye on the temporary residence of the King of Zhongshan, and report back at any time if there is news!"

"Yes!"

One after another orders were issued from General Wu's mouth, and a large net was immediately spread, just waiting to quietly catch one big fish after another, and glory and wealth seemed to be as easy as being at your fingertips.

Don't you know, the rabbit will bite when it is in a hurry, and the big fish will naturally have to flutter twice, and the result depends on whether the big fish is strong or the fishing net is strong enough.

Murong Huaide was standing by the window at this moment, listening to Jia Yi's report while blowing a cold breeze. For some reason, he trembled in his heart for no reason, and an inexplicable crisis crept into his heart, causing him to frown.

When Jia saw this, he thought that the north wind was too cold, so he hurriedly stepped forward and closed the window, and comforted, "Lord Wang, the master mother has the second prince to take care of her in Beiban, and she must not be wronged." You must take care of your health, the food has been gathered eighty percent, and the day of the trade is about to come, if you fall ill, what should you do? ”R638
