Chapter 246: The soldiers are divided into two ways
"It doesn't matter who you sacrifice, can you draw it sooner?" Chu Chengping knew that it was strange for him to sacrifice a person who was not related to him, but he couldn't tell Taifu Qi who Gu Qing was.
"No, it's important to the minister." Qi Shao's voice trembled. "There is an old man in the minister, who is called Gu Qing."
"Huh? The Gu Qing you know, is she a woman? Kissing curiously looked up at Qi Shao.
Could it be that he could also see immortals when he was a child?
How many children has the fairy grandmother fooled?!
"Minister...... Felt like she was supposed to be a woman. "Such a graceful and delicate little word, it should be a woman.
"Ah, that's probably her." Pingping and kiss ignored it and nodded.
"Taifu Qi, Gu Qing is an immortal. We are sacrificing a female fairy named Gu Qing. I heard that she often comes down to earth, have you seen her too? ”
"Also? You guys...... You guys...... Ever seen it? ”
Qi Shao did not answer their words directly, but relied on instinct to talk about them.
If other people heard the fairy tales of these two children, they would definitely reprimand them for nonsense, or simply leave them behind with the strange power of being silent, but the thoughts that Qi Shao hid in his heart had already taken root, and now he was involved, and it was extremely painful.
But any bit of news about "Gu Qing" is good for Qi Shao.
"Ah, I did." Kissing nodded, and was pinched by Chu Chengping on the side.
"I've seen ...... in my dreams," Chu Chengping replied to Qi Shao seriously.
"The two children have seen the goddess in their dreams, why do I want you every day, but you never fall asleep......" Qi Shao muttered something that no one could hear, his eyes were misty and heartbreaking.
Qi Shao is now in his thirties, and he already has wives and concubines and children at home, and he lives the same life as all scholars and doctors. He cultivated himself into a family, married the daughter of a world friend, and his parents' words of matchmaking were no different from other men.
But for the dazed and sweet "first love", he secretly maintained the little secret in his heart like the stupid scholar in every story. Just like the box that he will never open again, the water-tuned song head on that piece of flower paper has already been engraved into his heart, and he can never forget it, and he doesn't need to open it.
When he was young, he dragged on and refused to start a family, and asked people surnamed Gu everywhere in the capital. He stubbornly thought that such a wonderful poem must have come from the Gu family of the Jiangnan Shi clan, and the scope was much smaller.
He even went to Jiangnan once and secretly lingered for a month by the Wubao where the Gu family once lived.
He has also simulated in a place where there is no one at home again and again, he met "Gu Qing", what should he say to her.
He always felt that he would inquire about her, and he would do everything he could to stay where she was going out, just to finally have a chance to speak to her.
In those days, Qi Shao was like a good year in the wilderness, thinking about those words upside down day and night, and he had to squeeze the bone marrow in those words dry.
Sijun is like flowing water, how can there be a time to be poor.
And then he got older, and so did his younger siblings. The eldest brother has never been married, which is an obstruction of his younger siblings, his parents and brothers look at him more and more irritated, and his father even wants to go back to his hometown several times because of his marriage, because he really has no face to face the inquiries of the old people.
He succumbed.
So he lost his qualification to say those few words to "Gu Qing" forever.
Now, Li Mei and the Young Emperor told him that even if he kept waiting, he would not be able to say those few words to her.
Heaven and man are forever separated.
King Xiang has a dream, but the goddess has no heart.
"Mrs. Qi doesn't look good, is he going to cry?" Qinqin said in Pingping's ear in fear, "Why don't we leave for a while?" My dad said that when adults are emotional, children should leave for a while. ”
This situation generally occurs when Li Mao sees his kiss and gets into trouble again, and he wants to get angry.
In fact, it is an elegant way to tell the child to "get out".
"I don't think Mrs. Qi would want us to see him cry." Ping Ping nodded approvingly, took a few steps back with his kiss's hand, and secretly retreated to the door.
On weekdays, the two children would be found even secretly shaking their minds during class, but now, the two children ran out of the door all the way, and they didn't hear the voice of Qi Taifu's disapproval.
"Ah, does Aunt Fairy also owe Mrs. Qi an unfinished story ending." Chu Chengping, who was standing under the corridor, shook his head. "I really want to ask Mrs. Qi, can't we ask Mrs. Qi and then ask Aunt Immortal and let her give an answer?"
"Don't want it now......" Kiss sighed.
His father didn't allow her to enter the house every time he was "emotional".
Iniquity.
This fairy who uses stories to pit children all over the world.
On the second day, Qi Shao told Pingping about the way of governing the country of the Legalists as usual, and took the consequences of too harsh punishment in history as an example, and explained his views to the young emperor little by little.
Everything seemed normal, as if Qi Shao's "emotional excitement" yesterday was just an accident.
It may be more convincing if you can ignore the fact that this Taifu often shakes his mind for no reason.
On the third day, just when Chu Chengping and his relatives felt that the days in Pengcheng were too long, and Gu Qing had already walked around the Wei Mansion and felt that it was really boring, Qi Shao came to the main courtyard.
He brought a painting.
At this time, Gu Qing had already ended his "adventure" in the mansion. This expedition allowed her to find that the range of activities she could move around had expanded a lot.
Maybe in a little while, she will be able to run around the ancient streets as she wished.
Qi Shao handed over the painting to Chu Chengping, and left without looking back, as if he was afraid that the two children would ask something.
Ping Ping opened the painting and found that it was the "banquet picture" that he had asked for three days ago when he went to Taifu Qi.
The carved beams and paintings of the building are floating on the water, the windows of the cabin are wide open, and the cabin is covered with a table of wine and banquet. If you look closely, the table is full of delicacies, two wine glasses, and flowers.
On the deck, a white-clad master waited as if waiting for someone.
The bright moon above the painting, shining on the white-clothed coat on the bow of the boat, the artistic conception is extremely lofty, Gu Qing stretched out his head to look, and immediately remembered Li Bai's "Raise a glass to invite the bright moon, and the shadow becomes a trio".
Qi Shao's talent is really worthy of his name.
"Only wait for the bright moon, thousands of miles with you...... What the? Sacrifice Gu Qing?! "Gu Qing's last three words have been raised by a few octaves." You two bear kids! Having said I'm not a ghost! ”
"It's not like you're going to be able to eat, so you have to try it."
"I said, you won't really burn a beautiful man for me......" Gu Qing couldn't help but laugh and pointed to the scribe in white and wearing a high crown in the painting, and was speechless.
"Hey, yes, Pingping, do we have a Taifu painter?"
"No, I'll just ask him to draw some wine and food."
Kissing and touching this painting, I felt very thrilled, and I was a little reluctant to burn it.
"Pingping, what does this poem mean?"
"This is a sentence that expresses nostalgia, which means, 'When the bright moon rises in the sky, I will watch the moon with you, thousands of miles away, and send this distant thought.'" ”
"Of course I know that this poem means this, I am asking Taifu what it means to write this poem!"
“…… I don't know. ”
"Hey, this poem ......" Gu Qing scratched his face, feeling as if he had forgotten something, and he couldn't remember it.
After a long time.
"Oh, I said how can it look so familiar!" Gu Qing clapped his hands, "This is not the same as 'I wish people a long time, thousands of miles together'!" ”
The more Gu Qing thought about it, the more wonderful she felt, and she couldn't help but chatter.
"It's really fun to be a family. Qi Shao's uncle, Qi Yao, shouted for Li Meng to fall asleep as soon as he saw the screen in Li Meng's handwriting. This Qi Shao wrote a poem, and he and Su Shi were almost bosom friends. Gu Qing touched his chin, "Is this called 'the article is natural, and the magic hand gets it'?" ”
"If only he could go to Su Shi's world, he would definitely be able to become a close friend......
"Grandma, what are you muttering......"
"It's nothing, I said that if this Qi Shao goes to another world, maybe he will be able to meet the author of 'Water Tune Song Head'."
"What's the water tune?"
Water tune song? Little songs?
"Ah, you talk to myself, don't worry about me." Gu Qing looked at the painting and sighed. "This painting is so good, you better not burn it. If a big living person is burned, I can't afford it. ”
"That's what I thought, too. Pingping, put it away, and ask the painter to frame it when I return to Beijing. It's so beautiful, it's a pity to burn. ”
"Okay."
Gu Qing watched the painting being carefully rolled up by Chu Chengping and put it in the painting tube, and he sighed infinitely in his heart.
The student council president who laughed at two small dimples in the past is now so big that they are all older than her. And I haven't seen that pair of dimples a few times.
I'm afraid that the dimples hinder his majesty, so I don't laugh so presumptuously.
It's amazing how everybody is growing up and she's going backwards.
However, it also helps to adjust the "old woman" mentality when she travels back.
Whatever, when he went back, he just closed his eyes and slept again.
The young emperor stayed in Pengcheng for five days. Five days was too long for the Kyochu team, which barely lasted more than two days at every location.
However, when I thought of the rain that followed for several days, everyone was not impressed.
There are officials from Qin Tianjian in the team, maybe not as wonderful as Zhang Xuan back then, but it is always okay to budget for a few days of weather.
And Qi Shao, at this time, was discussing with several ministers because of the results of Wang Fang's spying.
"It's too risky!" Sun Ying, the squire of the military department, was the first to disagree. "Even if those people of King Xiangcheng leave Jingnan for various reasons, they may return at any time. If Your Majesty comes to Jingnan in person, there will be a miss......"
"What if His Majesty is here in person?" Qi Shao looked at Sun Ying, "If you send a stand-in in the name of Your Majesty?" ”
Sun Ying and several ministers looked at each other.
They are all Li Mao's henchmen, so they naturally know that Li Mei and His Majesty have exchanged identities for safety.
If Li Mei is in the light and the young emperor is in the dark, you can give it a try.
"I don't agree." Li Rui frowned, unwilling to suspect his sister. "King Xiangcheng is cunning and cunning, and his actions are unpredictable, no one can guarantee that he will not jump off the wall in a hurry."
"This is the best opportunity, to uproot the remnants of King Xiang Cheng and the second prince, and to regain his prestige." Qi Shao's voice was extremely firm. "Jingzhou is the thriving place of the Chu clan, and as soon as Your Majesty's power arrives, they will definitely defect one after another."
"I ......"
"General Li, if you don't worry, you can go out with the army." Qi Shao knew what he was worried about. The Li family's short-term protection is sometimes really a headache.
"But Your Majesty's side ......"
"Your Majesty will stay in Pengcheng, but on the Jiangnan side, the three thousand Xiao cavalry battalion and the private soldiers of the Jiangnan clan will stage a play to trick the remnants of the Yin Dynasty into coming forward. What we need to provide is nothing more than a guard of honor here. ”
Li Rui thought for a while, and finally believed in his best friend, the tens of thousands of cavalry behind him, and even more believed that he had the ability to let his sister retreat.
So he nodded.
"My Li family brothers and sisters, now it's for you to drive!"
"It's not for me to ......" Qi Shao, who has become more mature due to the years, smiled slightly.
"It's for Your Majesty, for the stability of Da Chu."
"What? Do you want to let your relatives leave the team with 20,000 troops and go to Jingnan? Chu Chengping's eyes widened, "I don't allow it!" My kiss only agreed to be a stand-in, and no one said that I would still fight! ”
Gu Qing sat on the small drum stool and nodded desperately.
Even if it's an ornament, it's too dangerous.
"Your Majesty, the ministers will also go with you, and you won't let my sister miss anything." Li Rui looked at the young emperor confidently, trying not to make him worried.
"We were never apart! If...... If she goes to Jingnan with you, who will appear in front of me for me? Chu Chengping shook his head and resolutely disagreed.
"On the bright side, Your Majesty will be in the car, from the direction of Daodu, to Qiantang......" Li Rui said Qi Shao's arrangement. But in reality, you have to stay in Pengcheng and wait to reunite with the Qiang and Li Mei who have returned from Jingnan, and then continue down to Jiangnan. ”
Gu Qing was dizzy when he listened to it.
Ping Ping looked in Gu Qing's direction and asked for Gu Qing's opinion with his eyes.
Li Mei on the side rubbed his hands and was eager to try.
She had long wanted to beat King Xiang Cheng and his gang who killed Pingping's father and brother into pigs' heads, but now that she had the opportunity, she couldn't wait to rush to Jiangling in Jingnan with thousands of troops and horses.
By the way, Pingping also has an older brother, and it is best to save it.
Gu Qing personally thinks that this plan is very reliable, at least Jin Guogong and Qi Shao both think that this is the least risky and the most profitable.
Like Chu Chengping, because the person involved in the danger was Li Mei, Gu Qing still hesitated for a long time.
Jingnan is not like the border pass, Chen has heavy troops, and there are not many government soldiers in total, as soon as the heavenly army arrives, it will immediately be annexed. It's just that King Xiang Cheng ran to Jiangling with the third prince so confidently, there must be some reason, in case Jiangling is full of traps, it will be too much for Li Mei to fall into it.
But in the end, Gu Qing saw Li Rui and Li Mei's eyes.
That's the look of a fight in the eye.
The same eyes as Old Taijun Li in Mrs. Qiu's memory.
She is no longer Mrs. Qiu. Even Mrs. Qiu can't forcefully ignore the ideas of her children and grandchildren, and use "for your good" to extinguish their dreams.
Li Rui's dream should be to be able to recover the territory and gallop on the battlefield, right?
Li Mei...... Li Mei is for Chu Chengping?
Seeking wealth and danger, Li Rui needs a war to establish his reputation. She knew that her grandson, he, the general of Wuwei, was not a real sword and a real gun, and she must have had some resistance in her heart. Now, if he can "justify the name", he must give it a try.
Li Mei......
Hey, this mascot deserves it.
Gu Qing looked at Chu Chengping and his kiss's expectant eyes, and finally nodded slowly.
Seeing the reaction of the fairy grandmother, Li Mei showed a smile of surprise.
Li Rui took 3,000 Praetorian Guards and the army into pieces in a few nights, and left Pengcheng in the name of scouting the road ahead. He only brought the cavalry, with the empty horses for the transfer and a few days' dry food and beans, and led this strange army to the neighboring Jingnan.
Li Mei also followed the team, riding a military horse alone, carrying the same armor that practiced martial arts in the school field, and a pair of bows and arrows stuck in the side of the horse.
This pair of bows and arrows, which only she and her brother can open, is Li Rui's treasure, and she asked for protection.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses went towards Jingnan, in order to lay the end of the story, all they relied on was speed. Reacted faster than the anti-thieves who cooperated with King Xiang Cheng.
Li Rui has had many experience in galloping, and the people have become accustomed to riding on horses, Li Mei has been taught by his eldest brother and other generals in the school field for more than a year, and it is also common on horses, this group of people showed the "yellow flag" on the road, and rushed to Jingnan from the avenue at a very fast speed.
The state capital southwest of Jingnan was the first to react. Li Rui asked several Praetorian Guards to enter the city with the emperor's handwritten edict, and then opened a guard of honor outside the city, and surrounded the "emperor" to the city, and hundreds of officials from Jingnan came to kneel to greet him, not daring to slack off for half a minute.
Li Mei has pretended to be mediocre too many times, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a "professional account for playing the emperor". Li Rui read the text written by Qi Shao that "the prince is about to welcome back the three princes, go to Jingnan to crusade against the rebellious ministers and thieves", and asked the hundred officials to distribute the text to the state capitals in Jingnan, and then continued to Jiangling with the cavalry.
Along the way, local officials who were interested in seeking meritorious deeds opened the city to greet them, gave way to the army, and some provided food and grass and sent government soldiers to follow.
Great Chu has not lost his way, Jingnan is the thriving place of the Chu clan, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is "Longyuan", it is often the banner of the little emperor that arrives, countless clans and heroes have "from the dragon", and when Li Rui embraces the inexplicable army to the city of Jiangling, these horses are enough to directly attack the city, and there is no need to persuade to surrender.
Although Li Rui is not afraid of fighting, he is not a person who is easy to kill and have a good reputation, not to mention that he still has his sister by his side, so it is naturally good to avoid fighting.
Even all the warriors of the Qianren were frightened by the prestige of this "Heavenly Khan", and with only 20,000 people without attacking the city, they drove all the way straight into the hinterland of Jingnan, and gathered countless men and horses to move closer to Jiangling to assist in the "crusade" against the rebels, which was a miracle in the eyes of these nomadic warriors.
Although Qi Shao and Jin Guogong had predicted this situation a long time ago, it was so easy that Li Rui was taken aback.
Only Li Mei didn't think there was anything wrong at all.
Grandma Fairy nodded, then this journey must be smooth, because there is a blessing from the gods.
If Qi Shao was here and knew Li Mei's thoughts, he would definitely feel funny.
The imperial court has never felt that there is a problem on the side of King Xiangcheng and the three princes, and no one has been conquest of Jingnan, one is the most eager to support the new emperor to ascend the throne, and the other is that no one wants to bear the reputation of "forcing the three princes to death".
Who knows if King Xiang Cheng will kill the third prince without doing anything?
Li Rui's royal division Chen Bing was under Jiangling City, and King Xiangcheng knew that the general trend had gone.
What he relied on was nothing more than the "orthodox name" of the third prince Chu Chenglie, as well as some soldiers and horses who supported the second prince, as well as the soldiers he raised at a huge cost.
Yin Tianyi's gang had already left one after another, and the group that had helped him stabilize the situation in Gangneung had also left Gangneung ten days ago.
They are just allies, not to mention that the other party's situation is stronger than others, and he can't control the going and staying of others.
King Xiangcheng took the three princes and escaped out of the city from the tunnel inside the east gate with the last manpower, but such a group of people appeared in the countryside of Jiangnan, and naturally many people found out. Poor King Xiangcheng is like a lost dog, many people along the road went to the king to report their whereabouts, and there were brave people who followed all the way in order to get a reward.
Li Rui took the scout camp with him, and it was all cavalry, and he caught up with the king of Xiangcheng and his party who fled in a hurry in less than half a day, and surrounded them.
Speaking of Li Rui and King Xiang Cheng, it is really indescribable, and the injustices of the two families can start from more than ten years ago.
Li Rui looked at the Xiangcheng Wang's family and the three princes who were pointed at by the Xiangcheng people with countless sharp arrows, and stood at the front with the reins and horses, and persuaded Xiangcheng King Chu Lian:
"You are also a member of the Chu clan, if you send back the third prince at this moment and follow us into Beijing, maybe for the sake of the same lineage and origin, Your Majesty can spare your life. The family behind you, young and old, can also be spared. ”
Jiangling City was opened by the frightened people, and the family of King Xiang Cheng left with the three princes through the secret road, leaving the subordinates of the second prince in Jiangling City, as well as the Lu family and the Sun family who fled with him in Beijing, as well as many clansmen who supported the three princes.
King Xiangcheng's meanness and affection can be seen in this.
King Xiang Cheng squinted at the young emperor who was surrounded from afar and sat on a white horse in armor, and shouted:
"Li Rui, you are just a small leader of the Praetorian Guard, what qualifications do you have to spare my life! Even if it is to persuade him to surrender, the little prince should personally persuade him! ”
He craned his neck and cried out like a martyr:
"The young emperor is the fourth, the third prince is older than him, this king supports the three princes as emperors, what's wrong!"
Li Rui rolled his eyes.
If it weren't for the two families behind him who would be holding the three princes, who would be patient to listen to what he said.
This old fellow, he still thinks that others don't know who those people he colluded with, right?
If it weren't for the three princes in his hands, he would have been shot into a hedgehog long ago.
King Xiang Cheng's performance continued in a clumsy way, he was scolding Da Chu for his poor treatment and disdain for his clansmen, but no one was destined to agree with his opinion.
Most of the knights behind Li Rui were Qianren, and they couldn't understand what King Xiangcheng was hysterical about.
Most of the Praetorian Guards were selected from the children of official families, and they were all ministers who were loyal to the little emperor, or the orphans of the guards left behind in the palace rebellion, and it was impossible to be moved by his words.
Now King Xiangcheng's shouting is more like a vent.
"I never wanted to be an emperor!" A shrill cry rang out like an emotional breakdown.
"You rebels...... You traitors! deserves to be cut by a thousand cuts, and there is no need to spare your life at all! ”
"They killed my imperial grandmother! Kill my father! ”
The author has something to say: Little Theater:
Iniquity.
This fairy who uses stories to pit children all over the world.
Li Ming: ...... I'm going to be the champion.
Li Rui: ...... I'm going to be a five-tiger general.
Li Mao: ...... Hehe, I'll mess around.
Li Jun: ...... Anyway, I married Zhu Rong.
Li Zhao: ...... XX is attached, and a layer is added.
