Chapter 151: Difficult Choice
Dou Ting paused for a moment, then stared at Liu Yuxuan tightly, and then said: "Brother Liu's Dragon and Tiger Gang has a wide range of people, and it has already surpassed the Qinglong Gang and become the number one gang in Da Chen. Now, you are the big horse of the dynasty, your status is extremely noble, and you will go straight to the clouds in the future, and the future is limitless!
If you want to make an alliance with me, I will rejoice. However, with all due respect, I have a small request. If Brother Liu can promise me, I will return to Yan Kingdom and persuade my father to make an alliance with you! ”
"Oh, what is the request? Please also ask Prince Dou to come and hear it! ”
Liu Yuxuan raised his brows slightly, his eyes flickering.
Dou Ting hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Although I can't be this Da Chen's big horse, I have a soft spot for Princess Xinrou. If Brother Liu can give Princess Xinrou to me and help me achieve beautiful things, don't say that I made a covenant with you, as long as Brother Liu needs my Dou Ting to contribute in the future, I will be duty-bound and willing to serve the dogs and horses! ”
After he said this, he raised his eyebrows and stared at Liu Yuxuan to see how he reacted.
Liu Yuxuan's heart suddenly stirred up a thousand waves like a stone, it was really a ripple layer, but thinking that he had spent a year of effort, I don't know how much suffering he had endured, and how many people's faces he had seen, so he finally had a little status today, and he was able to realize the dream of restoring the country of Great Chu, how could he delay a major event because of his children's personal feelings?
"Although Xinrou loves me, I also have a secret affection for her. However, after all, there is a chasm between us, which is difficult to overcome! Instead of breaking up and grieving in the future, it is better to turn the long pain into a short pain, so as to break the thought of her. Leave aside the troubles of this child's selfish affairs, so that I can completely settle down and complete the great cause as soon as possible! ”
Come to think of it. As soon as he was in his heart, he nodded with a smile and said, "This is not difficult. If Prince Dou can really keep his promise, I, Liu Yuxuan, will also think of a plan to ask Princess Xinrou to marry you as his wife! ”
"Really? That's great! ”
When Dou heard this, he was really overjoyed, jumped up unabashedly, and strode over. grabbed Liu Yuxuan's hand, very excited.
The two held hands and talked happily, clapped their hands and made a verbal agreement.
"Brother Liu. What do you want me to do now? ”
Liu Yuxuan leaned over and said to him in his ear: "As long as Dou Ting is like this, he can achieve beautiful things!" ”
After listening to this, Dou laughed. Stretched out his hand and patted Liu Yuxuan's shoulder. He laughed in a low voice: "Brother Liu, Brother Liu! If Princess Xinrou is ruthless to you, this matter will be hopeless. But if she has feelings for you, this time, it will be a great success, and we will all be happy! ”
Liu Yuxuan nodded with a smile, but a strong sadness gradually surfaced in his heart.
Ten days later, the 100,000-strong army of the Yan State suddenly approached the border of Dachen. In less than half a day, three important towns were captured one after another. All of a sudden. The border is in an emergency.
Chen Yu was shocked and urgently convened important ministers of the DPRK and China to discuss the matter.
Chen Deyong was worried, and stepped forward to play: "Holy Lord, our Dachen has been peaceful for more than ten years, and this time the Yan Kingdom actually invaded my border and captured my Dachen land. I'm afraid it's just for the sake of choosing a colt and being expelled from my Dachen some time ago.
Looking at our Da Chen, although there were many military generals of the Manchu Dynasty, most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and they were even young and yellow. And the 100,000 army of Yan is already close at hand, but we can't pick out the person who can lead the army, which is really worrying! ”
When Chen Yu heard this, he looked around at the military generals standing above the court, but it was really as Chen Deyong said, and he didn't feel a little panic in his heart.
"Then what is Uncle Huang's strategy to deal with this crisis?"
Chen Deyong saw that he was really anxious, but his face softened, and he leaned over and saluted: "Holy Lord, when we chose to choose a colt last time, aren't our two colts Da Chen ready-made candidates?" They are incoherent written exams, or martial arts exams, all of them are beyond the others, and they are the talents of generals that my Da Chen urgently needs at this time! ”
After hearing this, although Chen Yu was very reluctant to let Liu Yuxuan go into battle on this adventure, but, after all, this time was a major event related to Chen Guoyun.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "What Uncle Huang said is very true, and immediately announce the two horses into the palace." ”
Half an hour later, Liu Yuxuan and Lu Wen hurriedly entered the hall when they heard this.
Chen Yu announced the summons in court and appointed Liu Yuxuan as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, and Lu Wenting as the deputy marshal. In the early morning of the second day, the two of them were to lead 50,000 elite soldiers of Dachen to meet the enemy.
As soon as the edict was issued, the whole Dachen was boiling.
In the Dragon and Tiger Gang, everyone rejoiced and was proud of Liu Yuxuan. In the palace, there are joys and sorrows.
After Chen Xinrou learned the news, for some reason, she was always inexplicably uneasy in her heart, and wanted to go out to give Liu Yuxuan a ride, but because the time was too tight, it was difficult to make the trip.
She was spinning around in the Qinxiang Garden, her heart was pounding, and when she raised her eyes to look at the sky, it was already nightfall.
"If I don't see him today, I won't be at ease anymore. No, I'll have to go see him anyway! ”
Thinking of this, as soon as she gritted her teeth, she ordered someone to summon He Yong and begged hard, so that she was able to change her clothes and sneak out of the palace.
Liu Yuxuan was sitting at the table, staring at an oil lamp on the table in a daze.
There was a knock on the door, and he looked back, but saw Chen Xinrou hurrying into the door.
"Xinrou, why are you here?"
Before he could get up, Chen Xinrou had already thrown herself into his arms, and cried in a low voice: "Yu Xuan, you are going to the battlefield tomorrow, I am really panicked, I must see you, this will be at ease!" ”
Liu Yuxuan heard her sad voice, and there was a pain in her heart for no reason, and she lowered her head to help her tearful face, but she was meeting her big eyes with sadness and affection.
Liu Yuxuan took a deep breath, avoided her eyes, and said in a low voice, "It's already dark, why did you take the risk of going out of the palace to see me?" In about half a month, I will definitely return here. Don't worry about me anymore! ”
Chen Xinrou looked at him stupidly, not only did she not feel at ease in her heart, but she was even more anxious, shook her head and said, "I don't believe what you say!" The last time I pretended to be dead, I almost misled it for real! This time is different from before, you are going to lead the army to the battlefield, you must keep your promise and return safely! Otherwise, I will go with you!" You must keep it in mind! I, Chen Xinrou, in this life, in this life, in life, I am your Liu Yuxuan's person; Death, it's your Liu Yuxuan's ghost! Don't forget! ”
"Xinrou, you...... I don't deserve your heart to be so committed to me! ”
Liu Yuxuan couldn't bear it anymore, tears flowed from his eyes, and his heart was even more painful, he lowered his eyes, unable to face her.
Chen Xinrou smiled softly, sighed and said, "Fool! Since two years ago, when you and I met in Youzhou in a hurry, there was only one you in my eyes and heart! Later, we met again. I am so overjoyed, and I am grateful that God has treated me well! Although we are still separated, no matter what, we can agree on marriage now, and I can become your wife in the future, which is already my Chen Xinrou's greatest happiness. Where do you come from? ”
Liu Yuxuan's heart was even more painful, but he was ruthless, gently pushed her away from him, and said softly: "I'm going to leave tomorrow, but your coming here has disturbed my mood and added to my sadness." It's better to go back quickly, don't think about it. ”
Chen Xinrou was full of tenderness, but his cold words were like a basin of cold water poured down, and her heart was even more flustered.
She stared eagerly at Liu Yuxuan's gaze, wanting to see the nostalgia in his eyes, but there was nothing but coldness.
Chen Xinrou felt a pain in her heart, lowered her head unconsciously, nodded and said, "I know." I shouldn't have run to disturb you. You, remember what I just said, and you must return safely! ”
After saying this, she held back the tears in her eyes, quickly turned her head, turned her back to Liu Yuxuan, and the tears in her eyes poured down like a broken embankment.
Liu Yuxuan instinctively stretched out his hand and wanted to keep her, but finally retracted his hand weakly, simply closed his eyes, and didn't look at her trembling back.
Chen Xinrou stood silently for a long time, but the person behind her was speechless, her heart was cold, she gritted her teeth, and strode out of the door as soon as she stomped her feet.
The sound of hurried footsteps was heard, and it faded away until it disappeared.
Liu Yuxuan opened his eyes at this time, burst into tears, lowered his head and said to himself: "Xinrou, don't blame me for being ruthless. I can't help myself! ”
In the early morning of the second day, Liu Yuxuan was dressed in military uniform, and together with Na Lu Wenting, he led Da Chen's 50,000 military horses and rushed to the front line.
Before leaving, Xiao Yu begged bitterly and wanted to follow Liu Yuxuan, but he flatly refused.
"Xiaoyu, if you really have me in your heart, you should take this opportunity to stay away from me! I am no longer the same person I was today! In the future, I can't guarantee that I won't ruin your life for my own selfishness! ”
In desperation, Xiaoyu had to stay in Beijing and wait for news.
The 50,000 elite soldiers had already been assembled five miles outside the Beijing Division. And the people of Jingshi, almost all poured out, and they all came here to send these soldiers on the expedition.
When the people saw that Liu Yuxuan was really majestic, his appearance was extraordinary, and he even had a natural kingly demeanor, handsome posture, and they were really proud of him in their hearts, they all cheered.
Liu Yuxuan sat firmly on the horse, his eyes were bright, and he looked into the distance, very calm, which caused the people to cheer thunderously.
Lu Wenting sat on the horse, followed closely, and was also a handsome and majestic.
The procession passed slowly in front of them until three hours later, when it vanished.
The people were reluctant to give up, but they had to return to Beijing separately. Suddenly, the post station was crowded with people, but it was empty. (To be continued......)
