Chapter 442: The War Rests
The first place in the test was not this Tanhua, but to another person who ranked fourth, and he won a second place, although this result is already good in the eyes of many people, but this person is very unconvinced, in fact, this is deliberately arranged by Dongfang Luo. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A person with an impure mind, even if he is given great power, will be a disadvantage in the future.
And the fourth place, although the writing is a little worse than the first one, but the eyes are clear, and it can be seen that he is a plastic talent, so it can be regarded as an exceptional promotion.
Because under normal circumstances, the top three in the list of Tanhua will be tested, and this change is relatively large, Li Yubin turned out to be the Tanhua Lang this time.
For a time, Li Yubin was famous, although he would try to take second place, after all, he was young, and the emperor wanted him to experience a few more years, so he decided to make him Tanhualang and directly appointed him as an official in the Hanlin Academy.
This is good news for the Li family, Li Yubin is still young, everyone in the capital is more assured, Zhao Haiyi is also good, one of the top twenty, and is still waiting for the final arrangement.
"Oh, today's results are out, you two are good boys, you did well in the exam, grandpa is very happy, congratulations." Li Qingshan is very happy today.
Li Hui also came to congratulate after learning the results, one is a younger brother who grew up together, and the other is a brother-in-law who loves his sister, there is no reason not to congratulate.
"Thank you, grandpa!" The two of them are the object of everyone's attention today, but the Li family has another Jinshi and a Tanhua, which is a great honor, especially Li Yubin, who is in the limelight close to Lin Xu, who is the most optimistic young man.
"But ah, don't blame grandpa, we're not going to celebrate this year, let's just sit down with our own family and have a meal."
"Well, we know, that's fine, we just need to know for ourselves." In such a chaotic time, it is better not to be so public, the important thing is that Li Hui is also a direct victim of this war, and now there is no news from Dongfang Ye on the battlefield.
At this moment, Li Hui couldn't help but think of the original time when Li Yujin and Li Yuqian were in high school, they still came to the capital with several of their children, and then step by step to the present, as if these were all natural things.
In the blink of an eye, the literate kid who followed her was also a high school visitor, and he never dared to think that there would be such a day, perhaps because he didn't think it would happen so soon.
In fact, this is also thanks to everyone's efforts, thanks to the self-motivation of Li Yujin and others.
It's just that in this joyful atmosphere, she can't help but think of Dongfang Ye who is still on the battlefield, and she doesn't know how he is doing now, for so long, he hasn't sent a letter.
Dongfang Ye, who was talked about by Li Hui, sat in the council hall in armor at this time, looking at the generals below: "What are your opinions on these sneak attacks?" ”
Since arriving at the border pass, he has planned several sneak attacks, but every time he reaches a critical moment, he is discovered by the enemy, if it is not for the rich experience of Dongfang Night, the Tanglin soldiers will suffer a big loss.
"Lord Wang, the last general thinks that there is a spy inside us, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence every time." A slightly younger general replied boldly.
Dongfang Ye nodded slightly, as long as the generals with a little experience will suspect that there is something wrong with the internal this time, but in front of them are people with high prestige in the army, no matter who they suspect, it will be more troublesome.
It's just that at this time, the generals have different expressions, and they don't know what they are thinking, and if they continue to talk about it, everyone is suspicious, and everyone has the opportunity to betray the news.
"This king knows, we are secretly acting every time, and we only know a few of us, so this news, I don't know if it has anything to do with everyone here, if you know it's wrong, this king will give you the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, if you are obsessed, don't blame this king for being ruthless." Dongfang Ye's fingers tapped evenly on the tabletop, and the business of Dongdong knocked on people's hearts.
"Lord Wang, now I suspect that everyone is distrustful of their own people, so don't make inferences!" A lean, bearded man in his fifties sitting on Dongfang Ye's right hand side said.
I saw that his eyes were sharp, and the precipitation was the vicissitudes of the world, looking at his dress, his position was not low, and his prestige in the army was not low, and as soon as his voice fell, several people nodded in agreement.
"Okay, there have been several sneak attacks in a row, and the soldiers are tired, let's rest for a few days to recuperate, but we can't take it lightly." Dongfang Ye nodded slightly.
Since the culprit can't be found for a while in this incident, then I can only secretly investigate, I only hope to find out the thief as soon as possible, or I don't know when this war will end.
"Let's disperse first, General Liu stays!" Dongfang Ye left that old general, that's right, the lean general who spoke just now was Liu Jingshan, the father of Concubine Liu Xiangru.
"Lord Wang!" Liu Jingshan was respectful and respectful on his face, but he actually disdained it in his heart, he was not just a young man, no matter how good he was at using soldiers, he was not his opponent.
And his daughter suffered such a big crime in the palace, the emperor Dongfang Luo did not pity him at all, how could he be worthy of being the emperor, how could he be worthy of his dignified general to work for him.
Hmph, when he negotiates with Beiming, when the time comes, he will unite with Beiming and capture Tanglin in one fell swoop, he will be the Son of Heaven above ten thousand people, and he doesn't have to surrender like anyone.
Thinking about it, his blood boiled, as for the traitor's matter, it was the rumor that he deliberately released, just to attract Dongfang Ye to go on the expedition, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and he will solve Dongfang Ye here, and the one in the capital is not a threat at all.
Liu Jingshan thought very well in his heart, but he couldn't underestimate the young man in front of him, he must act when he was unprepared, he didn't believe it, he had been operating at the border for so many years, and he would not be able to solve an oriental night.
"General Liu must understand this matter, it is very important, I hope that General Liu can help this king to find out the thief and repel the Northern Underworld." Oriental Night's tone was extremely sincere.
"Don't worry, the last general will do his best!" Liu Jingshan swore a promise.
"Okay, General Liu has worked hard, when this king returns to Beijing, he will definitely ask for the general's life and give you the title."
"Lord Xie, the last general will retire first!" Liu Jingshan looked surprised, withdrew from the conference hall, and after turning around, he immediately changed his expression and sneered, his goal was not to be those worthless titles at all, but to be the one who could be knighted at will.
I have to say that Liu Jingshan's wolf ambition is not for a while, for this matter, he has been planning for more than ten years, and Concubine De's entry into the palace was also arranged by him.
He was not a person who was content with the status quo, and his heart began to stir in more than ten years, especially after tasting the taste of power, he was no longer willing to let go.
From the beginning of guarding the border pass, to the end of the people here are the only ones, his words are holy decrees for those who live in the border all the year round, and then the desire in his heart gradually swells, until finally he has the heart to seize the throne.
At this moment, he has been waiting for a long time, and the high position is his.
In the tent, seeing Liu Jingshan leave, Dongfang Ye's eyes became deeper and deeper, when he was discussing just now, everyone's expressions couldn't escape his eyes, especially Liu Jingshan, although he was casual on the surface, but Dongfang Ye's sixth sense knew that he had a problem.
So in the end, Liu Jingshan was left for the final judgment.
Liu Jingshan's performance was no different from before, but the subtle expression on his face at the moment he turned around when he left did not escape Dongfang Ye's eyes, he squinted slightly, it seemed that Liu Jingshan had a problem.
"Lord Wang, do you see something?" In the dark, a man came out, dressed in black, completely integrated into the corner, unnoticed by anyone.
"Han, pay attention to Liu Jingshan, see who he usually contacts and who he deals with the most, and if there is a letter sent, where it is sent, you can't let go of the slightest clue!" Dongfang Ye's cold order, Liu Jingshan is not a simple character.
"Lord Wang, is there something wrong with him?" Although Han was carefully observing in the dark just now, he was not as careful as Dongfang Ye, and he was still in chaos.
"I hope there is no problem, you go in person, I don't worry about handing it over to others, you have to pay attention, Liu Jingshan is strong in martial arts and has a sensitive mind, you must be careful not to be discovered."
"Yes, lord, my subordinates retire!" Han quietly left the chamber, followed Liu Jingshan's footsteps and left, and began the task of monitoring Liu Jingshan for twelve hours a day.
Dongfang Ye was left alone in the council room, pinching his temples, it had been half a month since the army arrived at the border pass, and there was nothing to gain, and several sneak attacks ended in failure.
However, this is also part of his strategy, on the way he analyzed the battle, and probably had a vague idea in his heart, several sneak attacks were also planned by him, that is, to give some people some chances, so that they can show their feet.
It seems that his guess is good, some people's desires can no longer be satisfied, among them, the most likely person to do this is Liu Jingshan, he has been in the army for many years, and the connections and prestige he has established make it easy for him to send the news out.
It's just that the fox always shows its tail, and he doesn't believe that anyone will do it so perfectly that there is no clue at all, but these few feigned sneak attacks have also made the soldiers tired a lot, and in the past few days, they will temporarily stop fighting and recuperate.
I believe that with such a fuss, the energy of the soldiers of the Northern Underworld is not much.
The men and horses on both sides were in a state of stalemate, because Dongfang Ye was in charge, they no longer dared to rush up as before, they were very jealous, Dongfang Ye did not take the initiative, and they did not dare to send troops.
In the past few days, Dongfang Ye has time to think about his own affairs, thinking about the little woman in the capital, I don't know how she is now, whether she misses him, he misses her very much, he can't sleep when he thinks about it, and he feels distressed when he thinks about it.
Lifting the pen, the dignified night prince racked his brains to write a letter to the little woman, hulahula, he tore off the letterhead, he always felt that it was not good to write, how could he use that tone?
Pick up the pen and write again, and after a while, the ground is already covered with pieces of paper, and the Night King's brows are getting deeper and deeper: "Forget it, that's it!" "Finally finished a relatively satisfactory letter!
"Someone!" With his order, a man in black appeared from an unknown corner: "Send this letter back to the capital, explain it, and send it to the princess." ”
"Yes, Lord Wang!" Then the people who came left silently, just as they came.
Eight days later, the capital, the Night King's Mansion
Li Hui numbs herself with busyness, she doesn't want to be in the night, she doesn't write to him, she doesn't mess with him, she distracts him, and only when she is busy can she forget her deep thoughts and forget the man engraved in her mind.
At this time, the housekeeper Zhu Fu led a man in black into the study: "Princess Qiyu, the prince has sent a letter back!" Zhu Fu was very excited, his voice trembled a little, Dongfang Night went on the expedition, and his worries were no less than Li Hui's.
"Get it!" Li Hui stood up suddenly, and the ledger in her hand fell to the ground with a click.
didn't care about saying anything, so he directly took the letter in the hand of the man in black: "You guys go out!" ”
Under the expectant gaze of the housekeeper Zhu Fu, Li Hui gave the order to drive people out.
It wasn't until the person left that Li Hui pretended to sit down calmly, and opened the envelope in his hand tremblingly, with a total of three pieces of paper: "Hui'er, I'm fine here, what about you?" Then there was a lot of talk about his life at the border and asking her if her life was good.
Until the last sentence, Li Hui sneered: "Lady, I miss you, do you miss me?" The words are clearly not as smooth as the previous handwriting.
It can be imagined that when writing these words, Dongfang Ye's heart was so entangled, sending a letter from afar, writing such love words, but it was not the character of Dongfang Ye, a cold person, who was obviously entangled for a long time to write these words.
After laughing, Li Hui sighed, her longing for Dongfang Ye became stronger and stronger, seeing Xinsi people, she could imagine how hard Dongfang Ye's life was at the border pass, otherwise she would not have written back so long.
However, the fighting has stopped in the past few days, and there should be no danger in the silent confrontation between the two sides, so she can rest assured.
Carefully put the letter away, thought about it, should give a letter back to the man, I was afraid that he would be distracted, but seeing the man in black who was brought by the housekeeper, Li Hui knew that this was a unique way to send the letter, and after thinking about it a little, the smooth text jumped on the paper.
Thanks to years of contact, Li Hui's handwriting is already good, although the style is insufficient, but there is already a trace of modern fountain pen words, and her modern handwriting is good.
Soon, a letter was written, unlike the entanglement when Dongfang Ye wrote the letter, Li Hui was obviously calmer, and the letter told her thoughts and concern for him, she must pay attention to safety, she must not be injured, and there must be no accidents.
Finally, in the end, he said that he brought him some dried meat, which was durable and could be eaten, and in such a difficult environment, even if the grain and grass were sufficient, the conditions were not much better.
"Where's Steward Zhu?" After Li Hui finished writing the letter, she opened the door of the study and asked the maid in the yard.
"Back to the princess, Steward Zhu is in the front yard, and the slave maid will help you!"
Li Hui nodded, and the little maid rushed out in a hurry.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhu Fu came: "Princess, do you have something to do with the old slave?" ”
"Well, Uncle Fu, can you help me send this letter out and write it to the prince." Li Hui suddenly regretted a little, what if it was inconvenient?
"Of course you can, the one just now was specially sent to deliver the letter, and now he is still waiting in the house, don't worry, the old slave will call him over, but can the old slave ask you a question?"
