Chapter 791: Extras (15)
Yuyang City was under martial law on all sides, tens of thousands of Yan troops were stationed in the city, and Liu Shining, the king of Changping, held a military talisman in his hand, and as a commander, he was naturally invited into the county guard mansion respectfully by the local garrison.
The Mongol army was defeated, and the wolf fled to the upper valley, and the soldiers and horses of the An Dynasty did not chase after them, lest they fall into the trap of the Yan army again. Xue Rui didn't send troops to chase after him, the reinforcements from Shanggu had arrived at this time, and it was no problem to clean up the remnants of the Tartars.
That night, in the most spacious room in the county guard's mansion, Xue Rui was sitting shirtless on a low couch, the brazier at his feet was red and prosperous, Jin Ke stood behind him, while dealing with the dense wound on his back with his hands and feet, while complaining:
"I said you really don't want to die, there was a lot of chaos at that time, it was too late to escape, you still dared to turn around and catch the Tartar leader, thanks to that arrow missed, otherwise you will never want to see your lover sister again in your life."
Xue Rui chuckled, his deep eyes flashing, and he didn't know what he thought.
"How could I spare my life, but I know that my eldest brother is secretly protecting me and will not let me have an accident." In the past year, he has long recognized Jin Ke, a chivalrous brother.
When Jin Ke heard that he trusted him so much, he was heartbroken, but he didn't let him go: "Next time you risk your life again, I won't accompany you to mess around." ”
This time, in order to win the trust of Timur, Xue Rui did not hesitate to pretend to be a prisoner, and played a bitter trick, so that the Mongolian army stepped into Yandi, borrowed the road from Shanggu, and became a turtle in the urn.
Wrapped in bandages, Xue Rui put on his clothes, picked up the wine jar on the table and poured a big mouthful, the burning knife was strong enough, his heart was hot, but it just relieved the pain of the wound, although the torture methods of the tartar were far inferior to the tortures he knew, but they were ruthless enough.
However, as long as he thought that he was one step closer to Anling City, he felt that this qiē was worth it.
"Drink less." Jin Ke snatched the jar and shook his head disapprovingly, he couldn't remember when Xue Rui developed this problem, as long as he didn't have anything serious to do and had wine at hand, he would definitely get drunk.
"I'll go around elsewhere, you hurry up and rest, I haven't closed my eyes for many days, aren't you tired?" After Jin Ke finished speaking, he left with the wine jar, and when he went to the door, he did not forget to tell the guards that they were not allowed to find wine for Xue Rui.
The county guard mansion is built very magnificently, this east chamber is connected to a large garden, out of the courtyard is a delicate wood-carved corridor, Jin Ke walked a few steps, and saw a few people coming to the front, but it was Yuyang Zhao Guard, behind him out of the steward, followed by two girls with curly gaits, wearing soft fur and brocade hats, red lips and pink cheeks, good posture.
"Ahh Zhao Shoubei recognized Jin Ke and greeted him with a smile, although his official position was two heads higher than Jin Ke, he was far less than Jin Ke in Dadu, close to the Son of Heaven, not to mention that Jin Ke was still the brother of King Changping, so he was naturally polite.
Jin Ke looked at the two girls behind him, stopped and asked, "Where is Lord Zhao going with someone?" ”
"Oh, I heard that the prince was injured, how can there be no one around to serve him," Zhao Shoubei said with a concerned face: "The maids in my house are stupid, only the daughters born to the two concubines are gentle and lovely, and they are sent to take care of the prince's daily life, and I have a heart." ”
Jin Ke said secretly: This old boy can be cheeky to find such an excuse to send his biological daughter to his brother's bed warmer, do you really think he can't see that he wants to climb the high branches? Don't inquire, if the king of Changping was a womanizer, the girls in most of the capital would have broken the threshold of the palace, not to mention that there is an eldest princess who is not dead.
"I advise Lord Zhao to save it," Jin Ke unceremoniously poured cold water on his face, "My brother is notoriously unfeminine, if you want to stammer, you might as well send a few jars of fine wine." ”
Zhao Shoubei laughed dryly, but he didn't retreat, and leaned sideways and said, "The head of the Jin Sect is busy with something." ”
Jin Ke saw that he didn't know the hearts of good people, and he didn't bother to stop him anymore, so he turned around and left, letting him run into a wall by himself. When his figure disappeared around the corner, Zhao Shoubei put away a smile, turned his head and explained to his two daughters:
"Wait until I see the king of Changping, learn to be smart, and let him fall in love with any of you, which of you is your creation."
The eldest daughter blushed, and the younger daughter pouted: "Dad, you said that King Changping is a first-class beautiful man in most of the capital, and even the princess likes him, shouldn't you lie to me?" If I see an ugly monster with a bull's head and a tiger's face later, I won't agree. ”
The local people in Yuyang are open, and girls are sensible early on, and they are not ashamed to marry men and women.
Zhao Shoubei said happily: "I'm afraid that you won't leave when you see someone later." ”
The three of them in this room are wishful thinking, who wants to wait for them to arrive in the East Chamber, and they won't even see Xue Rui's face.
The rebel army led by Feng Xiao was unfavorable, and suffered defeat in the first battle, or in the hands of the Tartars, and without waiting for Feng Xiaochou to report to the capital, he fought a battle inexplicably, and still fought with the Yan army back and forth, dealing with the Mongol army.
In the end, the victory was a victory, but Feng Xiao held back his anger, because he later learned from the interrogation of the captured Mongolian generals that he was a spearman for the Yan army for free, and this qiē was planned by Liu Shining, the commander of the Yan army.
Feng Xiao had nowhere to steam his anger, knowing that Liu Shining had retreated to Yuyang City, and within a short period of time, he didn't dare to send troops to attack again, for fear that there would be another trap. In fact, he has led the army for 20 years, and he has never seen such a deceitful person using soldiers.
Yin Yuanrong, who was the first to suffer defeat, asked for orders to fight, but he rejected it and did not move for the time being. Feng Xiao turned around and wrote a battle report plus a notebook, which was sent to the capital in a hurry
Three days later, the good news of Dingzhou came to the capital, saying that the Great Yan rebels colluded with the Mongolian Tartars and fought with the rebel army in Yuyang County, as a result, the Mongolian army was defeated and defeated, and the Yan army also retreated into Yuyang City, not daring to fight.
Emperor Chongzhen announced this good news in the court, and the ministers were excited, all thinking that the recovery of Yandi was in sight, and only a few people heard the inappropriateness, but they did not point it out in public.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen named Yu Shu and went to the Tai'an Palace. Yu Shu looked at him with a strange look and followed silently. When they arrived at the study one after the other, Emperor Chongzhen's face couldn't hold back, and he slammed the battle report that Feng Xiao sent back to the capital to the imperial case, and picked up a letter and threw it in front of Yu Shu.
"Let's see."
Yu Shu picked up the fold calmly, flipped through it and looked at the content, when she saw the paragraph "Liu Shining, the king of Changping, lured the Mongolian army to go to the valley by the road", she was slightly stunned.
Emperor Chongzhen said angrily: "When has Jiang Huaiying had more people around him, I have never heard of it, it is such a little-known king of Changping, who plays with my 100,000 rebel army!" ”
Yu Shu clearly knew the true identity of the King of Changping.
"I should have listened to your idea a long time ago, and waited for the Tartars to fight with the Yan thieves first," Emperor Chongzhen said without regret: "Now they are being used by them, except for one trouble." ”
He is not a book of war read in vain, the matter has come to this point, who could not have imagined that the Mongols were afraid of being "joined" by the imperial court and the Yan army, and they would not make a comeback in a short time. This is also why he called Yu Shu to the imperial study alone, and it was difficult to talk to others.
Emperor Chongzhen introspected, Yu Shu was not stupid enough to regret it with him, and complained about the emperor's not it, but persuaded: "The saint is a little restless, don't be impatient, Rong Chen think about countermeasures." ”
Emperor Chongzhen calmed his anger, sat down to drink tea, and gave her a seat at the same time.
Yu Shu sat and thought for a moment, and then he had something to say: "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, no wonder General Feng is in the battle of Yuyang, the saint is not in a hurry to reprimand him, but he wants to praise it, and first stabilize the morale of the army." The retreat of the Mongols was not necessarily a good thing, at least in this way, the Yan army was allied with the Tartars to fight against the imperial court. Yuyang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Feng Xiao's army is stationed in Dingzhou, at the moment it is just a waste of grain and grass, the minister came yesterday, there will be a heavy snow in the north ten days later, I am afraid that there will be a snow disaster, which is not conducive to our army's conquest, it is better to evacuate half of the 100,000 army, so as not to lose it. Wait until the weather is warm next year, and then make plans. ”
Emperor Chongzhen thought about it, although he felt that she was reasonable, but he was unwilling to show weakness to the Yan thief, and he was in a dilemma for a while.
Seeing this, Yu Shu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the emperor is also both civil and military, but it is a pity that he gave birth to an indecisive temperament, more than cold-blooded, but he can stretch and cannot bend. So she had no choice but to continue to persuade:
"The Yan army is good at fighting in the ice and snow, but our army is afraid of the cold, once the snow does not melt, it will become passive, and the Yan army may also take the initiative to attack." If you can't attack the city, you can't fight, so why don't you stay there and waste it?
"Well, that's fine, it's up to you."
"The Holy One is clear."
After leaving the palace, Yu Shu sat in the carriage, and all that came to her mind was the words "Liu Shining, King of Changping", which was the first time she heard the news of Xue Rui after parting, and it would be a lie to say that she was not a little excited.
Counting the days, they have been separated for a year, even if she doesn't miss him day and night, she always thinks about him as a person and remembers his promise that day.
But at that time, she was still a chess piece that could be pinched and flattened by others, and life and death were not up to her, at one time, at another time, but now she has stood at the top of Si Tianjian and looked down on everyone.
I wonder if he has heard about her, and how he feels?
Yu Shu shook his head and smiled, feeling that he had thought far ahead.
The carriage stopped outside the gate of Si Tianjian, and Yu Shu changed into a soft sedan chair and was carried to Taixi Tower. She spends more time in Si Tianjian now than at home, not because Zong Zhengsi's official duties are too busy, but because people ask to see her every day, and big and small things are waiting for her to make decisions.
When she arrived at Taixi Tower, before she got on the bridge, a black-clothed guard reported something to her: "The female prisoner in the dungeon is still clamoring to see you, and she bit her tongue and committed suicide this morning." ”
This is Ji Xingxuan. Yu Shu frowned and asked him, "Is the person dead?" ”
"Saved in time."
Yu Shu thought of Xiao Yu Guo, who was raised by her, turned around and said, "Go and see." ”r1152
