Chapter 170: The Princess

"Leave it to death and come back to life, after two rounds of resistance, abandon Xia City, and transfer the wounded and people to Xiliang," Gong Jingyu Chang finger drew from one side of the map to the other, "I can't wait for reinforcements, we must fight quickly, since Zefeng's trebuchet needs ice, we will send them some," he pointed to the long river between Xia Cheng and Xiliang, as well as Changfeng Mountain in the east, "Our army retreats to the Xiliang city wall, how much explosives are left?" ”

"About 2,000 stones."

"Use them all," Gong Jingyu pointed to Changfeng Mountain, "Capture Xia City, Zefeng's army will definitely drive straight in, send four thousand cavalry to make a detour to attack, Xiliang City Wall archers are ready, and the explosives are located in these places, in case of an avalanche, it will not affect our army." "The palace mirror domain points to a few points on the map.

General Liu hesitated: "Lord Wang, the last general also thought about sending someone to make a detour to attack ......"

"Why not?"

"In case the cooperation is not good......" General Liu stopped under the compelling gaze of the Palace Mirror Domain.

"You go and arrange for the transfer of the people and the wounded, and let Vice General Shen come in and see me."

General Liu didn't dare to say more, he retreated in shame, and after a while, a rugged middle-aged man entered the camp, "The last general will see the prince!" “

Gong Jingyu didn't talk nonsense, explained a few words to the deputy general, and finally said, "Can you do it?" ”

"The last general commands!"

Gong Jingyu went to change his battle robe, he climbed the wall of Xia City, and saw a fight outside, and occasionally a few pieces of gravel flew up and were split by him with his sword.

It seems that their trebuchets are indeed quite powerful.

Gong Jingyu looked at Zefeng's attacking army from a distance, and the trebuchet looked different from their army, suitable for fighting in the plains, and the first transportation in the mountains was a problem, and Xia Cheng was not so easy to deal with.

Looking at the battered northern defense, Gong Jingyu felt a little sad in his eyes, how much effort did the emperor spend to stabilize the country, but now the defense line is collapsed with one blow, Xiling has only been stable for decades, and the soldiers are scattered, but it is a civil strife that uses the army, and it actually hurts the vitality, but Qiyuan is still guarding against him at this time......

Kyoto.

Su Yingtong went to Guanhua Temple to burn incense, she knelt on the cushion devoutly, looked at the Buddha who embraced all things in the world, and silently thought in her heart, the Buddha is above, such as today's uncertain situation, the common people are all affected by the war, if the Buddha can purify all sentient beings, but also ask Buddhism to be merciful, so that sentient beings can get out of the sea of suffering...... The prince is the leader of the Xiling army, even if his hands are stained with blood, it is also for the sake of his family and country, and he also asks the Buddha to bless the prince to return safely...... If there is a sin, the little girl is willing to bear it in the place of the prince.

She bowed deeply three times before standing up. Today is already the fifth day of the first month, and there are still three days left in the divorce period, and for the first time, she hopes so strongly that time can go a little slower, and the palace mirror domain is racing against time at the border, even if she can't come back as scheduled, it doesn't matter, as long as it's safe, it's enough.

Qingmei helped her out of the Buddha hall.

When Su Yingtong stepped out of the palace door, a kind voice came from behind him: "Miss Su, please stay." ”

Su Yingtong turned around and saw that it was an old man with a kind face, seeing that she was wearing the clothes of the people of the Xiangyuan Palace, Su Yingtong hesitated a little, how could this person be so strange?

"The slave maid accidentally listened to a few words just now, but Miss Su is praying for the prince?" Seeing that Su Yingtong was wary in his eyes, the old man smiled, "It just so happens that the master of the slave is also there, does Miss Su mind moving and talking?" ”

This old man is wearing the clothes of the people of the palace, who can be the master of the palace who can match the people...... Su Yingtong was taken aback, and already had an idea in his heart, "Please lead the way." ”

Walked into the Buddha hall, in front of the innermost small room, there were two mothers-in-law standing at the door, the old man took Su Yingtong directly in, there was a plainly dressed woman with her back to them chanting, the old man said softly: "Princess, Miss Su is here." ”

Really.

This is the princess who has always lived in simplicity, the mother concubine of the palace mirror domain.

After so many years, she finally stepped out of the palace, is it for the palace mirror domain?

The princess turned around, and sure enough, it was what Su Yingtong imagined, just like the orchid left by the precipitation of the world, and she was full of indifferent and demure atmosphere.

The face has not left too many traces of time, and the beauty of her youth can still be seen, but in her peaceful temperament, she has precipitated elegance and dignity, and between her eyebrows and eyes is the kindness of insight into the world, but it makes people feel that they are rejecting people for thousands of miles, and people dare not approach.

As soon as the princess spoke, she broke the sense of distance that Su Yingtong felt. "The wedding date is coming, are the girls ready?"

Su Yingtong didn't know how to answer for a while.

The princess sat down, and she pointed to the chair next to her with her left hand: "Girl, please sit." ”

"The younger generation is rude, don't blame the princess." Su Yingtong saluted before sitting down.

The princess looked at her softly: "It's going to be a family soon, why are you so exquisite." ”

Su Yingtong blushed.

The princess said: "I will arrange the affairs in the house in the next few days, the eighth sedan chair will go out, and Xiangyuan will rush back, rest assured." ”

Seeing that Su Yingtong didn't speak, he asked, "But do you still have concerns?" ”

"No," Su Yingtong smiled, "I didn't expect to see the princess here, I have also lived in the palace, but I have never met the princess." “

"But I've seen you." A smile appeared on the princess's indifferent face.

Su Yingtong was surprised.

"Your celebration of Yi'er's birthday is really exciting, and I have seen it too."

Su Yingtong suddenly felt a little creepy for some reason, it turned out that the princess had been secretly paying attention to the palace! Since she can't rest assured, why didn't she preside over the feed.

As if seeing Su Yingtong's question, Princess Tai said: "I am a selfish person, the palace has always been supported by Xiangyuan, since Xiangyuan chose you, I believe you also have the ability to help him take care of the palace, and I will still rely on you in the future." But he didn't say why.

Su Yingtong naturally wouldn't ask the elders' **, but the princess valued her so much, she still felt flattered, and at the same time she was curious, what did the princess go through, can be so desireless? In the glory and wealth of Kyoto, he avoided all personnel and accompanied the green lantern safely, like a person outside the world.

"The palace is so big a responsibility, and the princess still wants to help ......"

"Ying Tong, outsiders say that the Xiangyuan Royal Mansion is prosperous, but you and I both know that wealth and wealth are in danger, and when the old prince was still there, the first emperor was also ...... I have rarely taken care of Xiangyuan, but fortunately, Xiangyuan is also a capable child, so I don't need to worry too much, whether it is for the old prince, or Yize, Xiangyuan...... I haven't done enough, now that you are by Xiangyuan's side, he will be much better, and in the future, the palace will still want you to worry more. ”

"I will." Su Yingtong didn't know why the princess wanted to die alone like this without touching the palace at all, but it was already good that she could appear and arrange their wedding when Xiangyuan was not there this time. (To be continued.) )
