Chapter 303: Snowy Night (1)
Xia Hanqiu sat up violently, except for the cold sweat on her forehead, she behaved as calm as usual, no, more calm than usual!
"Princess, are you in ...... health?"
"There's no time, Lan Yu, go hit the bell, Lan Die, let Uncle Ming invite General Yu to go to the Yamen, be quick."
Qiwang's Mansion is very large, at the beginning of the construction of the mansion, a big bell was put in the main house, as soon as it rang, it could be heard everywhere in the house, and in the dead of night, I am afraid that the people who lived around could faintly hear it.
This is the first time I've used it.
Lan Yu and Lan Die glanced at each other, knowing that something was wrong, and quickly ran out of the house.
When the deep bell rang, Xia Hanqiu couldn't help but touch her chest, and this sound seemed to knock on her heart, making her heart sink straight down.
Ruyue and Huayue came in together, neatly dressed her in a coat, her long hair was coiled behind her head, and she shook her head to stop them when they were about to put on jewelry, what else did she use these to do at this time, but when the two of them were not paying attention, they touched a hairpin and hid it in the sleeve.
The body was already bulky, he wore a lot, and he wore a thick cloak when he went out, Xia Hanqiu didn't have to walk over by himself, and was helped by the two of them to sit on the sliding pole.
Zhilu Dao several mothers-in-law are doing their jobs well, but Ruyue still couldn't help but order: "Go slower." ”
"Miss Ruyue, rest assured, the old slave and others are not greedy for speed, and everything is important to the princess."
Xia Hanqiu's place of residence is close to the main hall, but when she arrives, everyone has basically arrived, and even Xia Wei is one step faster than her.
Seeing her coming, he hurriedly went over to get close to her. I also reached into my sleeve to shake her hand, and I put my heart down when I felt that it was hot, this weather, and this hour, I was most susceptible to cold, but what happened when my palms were wet like this?
Xia Wei is not a woman who does not know the world, and if she has doubts in her heart, she also knows that this is not the time to ask, if there is nothing to do, she will not make such a big fuss.
Wu Wei sat at the top. Chen Chen stood beside him. was personally serving him tea, when he saw the little junior sister come in and asked, "What happened?" ”
Being looked at by so many pairs of eyes, Xia Hanqiu bit the tip of his tongue, and the pain spread. People are calmer. "Min Guo picked such a day to do it. And the shameless tricks, no matter how closely we watch, the city was also mixed with a lot of sand. If it weren't for ......"
Xia Hanqiu was extremely glad at this time that he would actually think about holding it in his hands, and he succeeded, if he was really caught off guard, he would lose the army of the Fujian State!
What will happen if she loses her base camp, she can't imagine!
Xia Wei helped her daughter to sit down, and silently went to make tea in person, she couldn't help with these things, so don't go to the trouble.
In the house, except for Wuwei and steady, everyone else changed their faces, there was no movement for so long before, they thought that Min Guo would not do it, but they did it in this climate now.
Chen Chen exhaled a heavy breath of turbidity, "I was prepared before, and I didn't relax in defense, now that we know, they may not be able to take advantage, junior sister, give an order." ”
She was thinking about it all the way over, and said without hesitation at this time: "First, send someone to Bajing City, let Old Man Zheng find a way to draw troops back to help, and second, send someone to Wuyang City to find Qi Zhensheng, so that he can recognize the situation clearly, without us in front of him, he can't occupy Wuyang City for long, and the Min State can't tolerate him, remember to send people out of Lu in several ways, since the Min State dares to do it now, it must have been arranged, and people are afraid that it will not be good to break through to the city." ”
Chen Chen nodded and walked out, "I'll arrange it." ”
Xia Hanqiu looked at Wuwei, "Master, I want to borrow your prestige, please go to the yamen with me." ”
"Autumn ......"
"Mother, I have to go, especially at this time, if I hide in the Qiwang Mansion, people's hearts will be in turmoil."
Xia Wei looked at Wuwei Daoist, hoping that he could veto, but when he thought of Wuwei, he said: "If you go outside, you must first settle inside, you are right, even if you don't let me show up, I have to go with you to rest assured." ”
Before Xia Wei could speak, Wu Wei shook her head at her, "In the name of the princess, this is her responsibility, don't forget that now Chang Zhi and Bai Yu are both outside to defend against the enemy, and she is the one with the highest status in Huiting City, if she wants others to work for her, how can she hide behind." ”
"But Qiu'er is still pregnant!"
The room was quiet, and Wuwei felt that his throat was astringent, how could he not feel sorry for this disciple, but the current situation was ......
"The enemy won't retreat because I'm pregnant, if the pavilion is lost, my fate won't be much better, mother, I don't have a choice."
Looking at her daughter's calm and almost silent face, Xia Wei shed tears, knowing that Lu Dao's identity would bring such a great danger to her daughter, she should not agree to this marriage!
It's just that she has never been qualified to oppose it.
Xia Hanqiu took Ruyue's hand and got up, "Everyone in the family belongs to you, Ru Niang, you take care of my mother, leave a few in the nursing home, and the others will go with me." ”
Three people came out of the crowd, "Please bring the princess and the three younger brothers." ”
Xia Hanqiu remembered them, it was the three of them who escorted her to escape from Wuyang, and she still remembered that they said that they still had unfulfilled wishes, and when they needed it, they hoped that she would allow them to leave for a while.
But at this time, she didn't care about those things, so she nodded hurriedly, tightened her cloak and said, "Master, let's go." ”
It was already cold in the wind and snow, and it was even worse in the middle of the night, the wind blew on the body with a piercing pain, obviously wearing a thick dress, Xia Hanqiu couldn't help but shiver, and pulled the cloak tighter.
The carriage stopped in the front yard, Xia Hanqiu wanted the master to go up first, but Wuwei saw that her lips were so cold that her lips changed color, and motioned to the maid to help her up, and sat on the wheel by herself, "It's not far, my old bones can still survive, sit firm, sit down." ”
Yu Changgong didn't go home in Japan, and as soon as he heard Uncle Ming explain the situation, he moved, since he was going to besiege the city, the military camp was the top priority, and they must cut off all possible support from the pavilion.
In addition to the soldiers defending the city, there were about 2,000 people in the military camp, and Yu Changgong did not introduce these people into the city, but hid them outside the city as soon as possible, intending to appear as a surprise army, led by the Chen army.
The news of the imminent enemy attack also reached the ears of the soldiers as quickly as possible, and even those who were still a little sleepy were shocked and dispersed, and they went to grab a handful of snow and rub it on their faces, and they suddenly woke up and couldn't be more sober.
Of course, Yu Longbow will not forget to send news to each family, and the guards who are very decently trained have all picked up weapons and gathered, at this time, they are no longer people from any family, but a part of the Huiting City guarding the city.
By the time Xia Hanqiu arrived at Yamen, almost the whole city knew that there was an enemy attack, and almost everyone moved, whether it was for self-protection or to protect the city, but on the surface, Huiting City was still asleep, even if it was still a little uneasy, and it was also blown invisible by the wind and snow.
Seeing the carriage approaching, although Yu Longbow had been mentally prepared, at this moment, he still had more respect for this princess who was not tall, did not look strong, and was clearly pregnant. How could you have that guts? How can anyone be convinced?
But now he dares to say that the princess's order is ordered to stop!
"General Yu has been waiting for a long time." As soon as he got off the carriage, Xia Hanqiu said.
Yu Changgong shook his head, his armor was on his body, and he did not make a big salute, but just made a gesture and said, "The princess is in the palace and commands. ”
"It's too guarded there, I won't have a sense of crisis, and I won't be able to make the right decisions." Xia Hanqiu explained, and said: "General Yu just charges in front, even if I don't help in the back, and my master is in charge, I will not let General Yu be constrained, the master once calculated that there will only be a surname Duan in this world, believe me, Huiting will never lose." ”
General Yu looked at the Wuwei Daoist, and when he saw the Wuwei Daoist nodding, he suddenly felt that his heart was settled, the Wuwei Daoist who was known as a god was called a god, what else was there to fear!
"Please give an order to the princess, and 12,300 people under Yu Longbow will be dispatched!"
Glancing at the master gratefully, Xia Hanqiu no longer wasted half a moment of effort, and said in a deep voice: "I have only one order for you, defend the city, no matter what methods or tactics you use, let you play, as long as you can defend the city!" ”
This is the order that the general wants to receive the most, taking a deep breath, Yu Longbow suppressed the surging mood in his heart, "The last general will take the order!" ”
Seeing Yu Longbow walking away with his personal guards, Xia Hanqiu looked up at the sky, and there were snowflakes again, this night, it's so long!
There was a sound of a car rolling not far away, and soon someone jumped out of the carriage, "Wechen see the princess." ”
It was Song Jiang, Xia Hanqiu was surprised, and was about to ask, when the sound of cars came one after another, one after another, and Song Jiang smiled next to him, "It seems that everyone can't sit still at home, so it's better to stay in the yamen." ”
What's more, even the pregnant princess came, but as a man, she was still living at home, it was too bad in her heart, they didn't want to respond to the words they heard that day, man, who doesn't want to stand up to the sky!
Xia Hanqiu glanced at him and didn't squeak.
When the people in the carriage came down one by one, Song Jiang stopped talking, and the people who came were not only men, but also a few female dependents who were obviously sent by their husbands.
"Why are you all here? What time has it been? ”
Yan Shengnan shook his head, "I can't sleep at home, I heard that you were coming, so I came with me to take a look, but I didn't expect to meet you sisters on the road." ”
Yes, General Peng followed and changed to the battlefield, and Katsunan was afraid that he would not be able to sleep at night.
Wu Linlang answered, "It's snowing again, let's go in and say something." ”
His eyes stayed on the man beside Wu Linlang for a moment, Xia Hanqiu nodded, and was helped up the stairs by Ziye Zishuang who rushed over, no matter how anxious she was, she didn't walk fast, at this time, her slightest discomfort would only be in vain. (To be continued......)
