Chapter 25 Zixuan's heart

Li Jin's eyes widened, "Miss Zixuan, you are so smart!" It's just that this matter will be left to Li Jin, you are a woman, don't risk it on the battlefield. ”

Zixuan thought about it, it's okay, as long as you leave, who will still come to see me, and I won't be able to go down at that time? So I agreed.

Li Jin took two steps and turned back uneasily, "Don't go down!" ”

Zixuan waved his hand, "Got it!" Got it! Go ahead! ”

Li Jin entered the battlefield and shouted loudly, "Song Laosheng has been captured!" Song Laosheng was captured alive! ”

When the soldiers of the righteous army heard this, they believed it and were greatly encouraged, and they also shouted, and suddenly the entire battlefield was full of shouts, and the news of Song Laosheng's capture spread like a wind.

When the Sui army saw the enemy shouting that his master would be captured, it was expected to be true, and his fighting spirit was completely lost and he collapsed in an instant.

Seeing this, Song Laosheng even held his breath and took a fire, wanting to climb the heights and shout to prove that he was not captured, and then thinking that Li Yuan was a well-known marksman, if he showed his head, wouldn't he become his human target? It's still important to run for your life. So he hurried to the city gate.

However, the defenders of Huoyi City also thought that Song Laosheng had really been captured, so they had already closed the city gate and pulled up the suspension bridge. Just when Song Laosheng called the heavens and the earth to be unspiritual, the defenders in the city actually saw him, and the defenders saw that Song Laosheng was fine, so they hurriedly threw down a rope and wanted to save him.

Song Laosheng was overjoyed, turned over and dismounted, jumped into the moat, as long as he crossed the trench, he could escape with his life. But he didn't expect that there was someone behind him who was faster than him, and Liu Hongji, the general of the righteous army, rushed over and stabbed Song Laosheng with a knife.

Zixuan saw that at this time, the Sui army had only the ability to parry and had no power to fight back, so she rushed down the mountain with all her worries. picked up a helmet strap on his head, and hurriedly ran in the direction of Li Shimin.

At this time, Shimin was standing on the horse and directing the rebels to pursue the fleeing Sui soldiers, only to feel that someone was holding his leg. When I turned around, it was Yang Zixuan, who was panting, "Why did you run to the battlefield, what are Li Jin doing?" ”

"You...... Are you hurt? Zixuan was so worried about him, the moment he saw Shimin, an emotion broke through the defenses in his heart like a flood and gushed out; At that moment, as if drinking Daigo, an electric current ran through his body, causing Zixuan to tremble. She finally understood her heart, for him, it was not just a worship of the first emperor of the ages, a feeling had already taken root in Zixuan's heart, and that feeling turned out to be love!

Although he is domineering and strong, although he has repeatedly doubted her, although he likes his sister, she is still in love with him. Because he is by her side, and even these days he gets along day and night, his talent is no longer the words in the history books, but is vividly displayed in front of her eyes!

Shimin looked at her intently, "No, I have the blood of the enemy all over me. ”

"I ......" Zixuan didn't have time to finish speaking, only to hear a "poof" sound behind him, and some warm liquid splashed on him. As soon as he turned around, he saw the pale Jiancheng holding his sword in his right hand, and there was a blood stain on his left shoulder, which was as stained as a red plum and spit out. Under his horse was the head of a Sui soldier rolling, and the owner of the head was still standing behind Zixuan, and the big knife in his hand had not yet fallen.

Zixuan was stunned, he had been thinking about the people before, and he had forgotten the horror of the battlefield. If it hadn't been built, he would have died a long time ago!

Jiancheng came over and picked her up and let her sit in front of his horse, Zixuan looked at his left shoulder, "The eldest prince ......"

"It's fine, just an arrow." Jiancheng took her to continue to gallop across the field.

After a day of fierce fighting, the Sui army's 30,000 horses were annihilated. At dusk, twilight rose, and Li Yuan led the army to capture Huoyi City in one go.

Li Yuan talked about rewarding meritorious deeds, and some officials reminded that some people were born as slaves in the past and should not be rewarded like ordinary soldiers. Li Yuan said: "What are these words? When charging into battle, can the flying stone flow arrow recognize the high and low? So he only talked about meritorious deeds, regardless of identity, and rewarded them aggressively.

If you talk about merit, the person who shouted that Song Laosheng had been captured is a person of great merit. Li Jin didn't dare to be greedy, so he had to say that this idea was Yang Zixuan's idea.

Li Yuan's face was displeased, he didn't know that Shimin had brought Yang Zixuan in the army, "Shimin, don't you know that there is an ancient saying: it is ominous to have a woman in the army?" ”

Shimin said: "Father, this old saying cannot be fully believed. Yang Zixuan is in the army, and he is not an ominous person to my righteous army, but a lucky star of our righteous army. She is a good diviner, and that hexagram is extremely spiritual. At the beginning of Jahubao, she calculated that the heavy rain would stop in August, and on the first day of August, she really looked at it. If it weren't for her, the son would not dare to persuade his father not to withdraw the army. ”

"Yes, father. She was also ordered by her second brother to brave the heavy rain to chase the left army, and almost fell off the cliff. This time, her idea helped the rebels quickly turn the tide and almost lost their lives on the battlefield. Father, since she is judged to be rewarded regardless of her status, how can she erase her merits just because she is a woman? Jiancheng said.

If Li Yuan hadn't listened to what his two sons said, he really wouldn't have imagined that this little girl would have such ability.

So he summoned her and said to her, "Miss Zixuan, I have heard that you have done the rebels a great favor in both Jiahubao and Huoyi, and the old man is very grateful. Now the army is rewarding meritorious deeds, but you are not a soldier and a girl, so you will be rewarded with this box of jewelry, can you be happy? ”

Zi Xuan looked at the box of jewelry, and thought to himself that he was really ashamed of it, history records that in this battle, someone on Li Yuan's side shouted that he caught Song Laosheng, but there is no record of who shouted, he just faithfully realized the historical record, and did not have any ideas, "My lord, Zixuan is not very fond of dressing up, and there are many places to use money at the beginning of the righteous army, it is better to save this box of jewelry in case of emergency." ”

Li Yuan looked at her gently, "You kid, you are very sensible. Then what do you want the old man to reward you? ”

Zixuan said: "My lord, Zixuan doesn't need anything, just ask for one thing, Zixuan's sister has been missing for a long time, after the adults successfully raise troops, can you help Zixuan find her sister?" ”

Li Yuan praised: "Miss Zixuan is a person who values love and righteousness, and the old man promised you that after the matter is completed, he will do his best to help you find your sister." ”

After taking Huoyi, Li Yuan ordered the army to rest here for a few days. This morning, Zixuan combed Shimin's hair as usual.

"Yang Zixuan, how many hairs did you cut off from me? I have grown a little bit a few days ago, why have I gone back in the past few days? Shimin feigned anger.

"Oh, second son, I'm sorry, I'll be careful." Zixuan felt his hands tremble. Since discovering his feelings for him, Zixuan feels very awkward to get along with him again, especially the intimate act of combing his hair.

Shimin said: "Hurry up, my eldest brother has something to discuss with me." ”

"That's it."

Seeing off the people, Zixuan sat alone in a daze. I can't love him! Zixuan made a decision.

Zixuan has never been in a relationship since she was a child, and she is a typical nerd. It's not that there are no boys chasing her, it's just that her heart is in history, and she doesn't care about other people, so those boys can only find another goal, and they can't hang themselves on her tree.

Since childhood, Zixuan has been accompanied by all kinds of history books. Books about the pyramids of ancient Egypt, the mysterious Mayan civilization, and the Italian Renaissance have all made her fall in love, and of course, her favorite is the magnificent 5,000-year history of China.

Zixuan felt that he would fall in love after he went to college, and he would also find someone who liked history, so that he could have a common language. She never thought that one day she would come to the Tang Dynasty and meet the most admired emperor Li Shimin, Tang Taizong, and fall in love with him.

But she said to herself: I can't love him, not to mention that there is a gap of 1,400 years between me and him, and I am my sister...... He and his sister love each other, and I can't rob my sister of a man!

Ziyi's life was hard and she lost her parents. Mom once told Zixuan that as long as it is something that my sister likes, let it be given to her, don't make my sister feel more bitter in her heart. She has seen how her sister is so emotional about Shimin, how can she bear to snatch away her sister's most beloved man?

Besides, she is not qualified to rob it, Li Shimin has always loved her sister, and she just stopped doubting her. It's just that she's making a lot of love here. This feeling had to be hidden deep in my heart, silently by his side, pulling all the deviated history back on track, and helping him become the first emperor of the ages, so that it would be fine.

Zixuan found all kinds of reasons to convince himself and tried to take back his feelings. But how easy is that? She could still clearly feel that she was unconsciously following his gaze, and that hand that she didn't know where to put it when she saw him.

Jiancheng and Shimin rode their horses to the small hill near Huoyi, overlooking the turquoise ocean in the sun.

Shimin asked, "Big brother, what are you talking to me about today?" ”

Jiancheng said: "I want to tell you about Yang Zixuan." You have told me about your suspicion of her, and I admit that your suspicion is very reasonable. But Shimin, sometimes we can't just use our eyes to look at people, you close your eyes and use your heart to take a look, what Yang Zixuan has done along the way, do you still think she is a spy? ”

Shimin said: "What the eldest brother said is that everything she has done is beneficial to our Li family, how can I still doubt her?" ”

Jiancheng said: "Shimin, since you no longer doubt her, don't let her be in danger again." On the cliff, outside Huoyi City, she almost lost her life twice. She's just a girl, and she's your sister-in-law. ”

"I see, big brother. Let her chase you on a rainy night, and test her in this way, I didn't think about it. And outside the city of Huoyi...... This girl has too many ideas, and she actually deceived Li Jin. I'm going to have to look at her more. Shimin thought of her clever eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously smiled.

After resting in Huoyi for four or five days, Li Yuan's army continued south. On August 8, it occupied Linfen County; On August 13, he conquered Jiangxian; On August 15, he arrived at Longmen on the east bank of the Yellow River, and on this day Liu Wenjing, who had sent a Turkic envoy, returned with 500 Turkic warriors and 2,000 war horses that the Turks had supported Li Yuan.
