From summer to autumn, the Guogong Mansion is still green and gorgeous, and the breeze caresses like a beautiful woman flying. In the gazebo, the girl in pink in the garden picked flower petals, and the woman in yellow carried a flower basket to accompany her. The peony that oppresses the crowd is less petaled, the more delicate it is, and the weeds in the yard appear yellowish. The magpies in the trees chirped as if they were singing.

The sound of the piano fluctuates in the atrium and makes the heart sad, but the magpie sings the sad tune with joy. The young man stood in black with a voice, his eyes closed and he enjoyed a trace of peace that he had not seen for a long time.

There is no battlefield fighting, and the court noise cannot be heard. Teenagers always want to grow up, but they have so many troubles when they grow up. I often think of all kinds of past events, with my fists to fight a piece of the sky, and now I have a knife and sword in my hand, there is no chic, only responsibility.

The decision-making of the imperial court has little to do with the fact that he is not as good as the little general, and his words cannot change any pattern. I remembered my brother's words yesterday again, and the last joy in my heart was consumed. He has only been in the army for two years, and he is now the commander of the first army from the centurion. The speed of climbing is rare in ancient and modern times, and the younger generation of Daliang is afraid that only Xiao Kun, the king of Qi, can be compared.

A new army has been supervised for less than half a year, and from less than 3,000 people, it has already been expanded with the emperor's favor. This incident can be described as the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the most surprising thing is that he is a little general who has only been in the army for two years. The elder brother's words are always terrifying, and the thirteenth battalion has been pushed to the forefront when he is not in the war. Especially what Liu Zhiming said: "Your Majesty is going south." ”

Liu Ce once explained to his two sons the site selection of the eight major arsenals in Nanjing, all of which were the border fortresses of Daliang. In particular, the two docks in Huizhou are useless once they have thousands of ships. Thousands of warships can cut the Southern Chu and Eastern Wu from it, and the water supplies will continue to be transported from the Central Plains to the south. Qingzhou's 100,000 male soldiers have not sent troops for many years, and they are far from the combat power they see. Lin Xie's southern expedition was just to suppress the arrogance of the new emperor of Southern Chu, and the death of Wu Peng, the commander of the Changfeng Army, in this battle was an excellent reason to send troops.

Liu Zhixing in the court saw that the generals and princes who had been tired in the court for many years straightened their waists. Even Wenchen rarely stopped the construction of the Nanjing Arsenal, and Huping Mengshi even bowed to the imperial court. Everything is preparing for the southern expedition, and the establishment of the thirteenth battalion is not saying that Daliang can still raise a million male soldiers.

The sound of the piano gradually stopped, and Liu Zhixing said: "What's the matter, the sound of the piano is so sad." ”

Jade Hand slowly released the strings and said, "I saw him, and I didn't expect that the city would look like this now." Can Brother Liu go to see his father when he returns to the camp, it is not easy for an old man to survive the war. ”

Liu Zhixing said calmly: "I'll go and see, although I can't reorganize the family business, at least I can have food and clothing." ”

As everyone knows, a folding fan flew in, like a sharp blade cutting through the breeze. The folding fan had already appeared in the pavilion in an instant, and Yulian was stunned and breathed heavily. Liu Zhixing reached out and grabbed the folding fan and fanned it gently, as if nothing had happened. In the courtyard, only Xiuwen looked at the pavilion with a solemn expression, but Xia Er didn't care at all.

How could a national government be a novice assassin without movement, and there would be only a few people who could walk into the inner courtyard at will. The eldest prince served in the court, and some of his close friends also held important positions, and they rarely got together. Who else can come to the Guogong Mansion except those two for leisure and elegance, the government has long been accustomed to these.

Dressed in white, he wears a delicate white jade pendant at his waist, steps on white cloud boots, and a green hosta on his head. is like a handsome son, and the excellent skin is even more obsessed with the beauty. Holding a large package in his hand, he strode over. With a smile on his face, he kept saying, "Good kung fu, good kung fu, good kung fu." ”

Liu Zhixing looked at Yang Chen who came and said: "His Royal Highness the prince is still in style, I don't know how many pomegranate skirts have been lifted." ”

handed the burden to Xia Er, who came over, and sat down directly without being polite. Lifting the teapot and pouring tea, he twisted the teacup and said: "Our boss Liu is wonderful and gorgeous, there are beautiful women as companions in the border gates, and the younger brother is not comparable, you don't say hello when you meet again." ”

Xiuwen, who was standing outside the pavilion, couldn't help grinning and stepped forward, Yulian looked at Yang Chen with an unforgiving look and said, "I've seen Yang Gongzi." Xiuwen walked into the stagnation and put down the flower basket and said, "Yang Gongzi is deliberate. ”

"It's not as cute as Sister Yulian."

Xiuwen read a petal and said: "Yang Gongzi's fan is like a sharp sword, how can the little girl not be afraid." ”

took a sip of tea and quipped: "Miss Xiuwen, this is too much, it's a pity, the beautiful dress can't be seen in the beautiful dress." ”

Xia Er opened her burden and looked at three dresses, two of which were Yulian's Qingyun Ripple Skirt, Xiuwen's lace ripple redwood, and the bottom one was a goose yellow silk dress.

Yulian picked up the Qingyun Ripple Skirt, put it in front of her and said with a happy expression: "Young Master Yang, why did you bring it." ”

didn't care about Liu Zhixing's strange eyes at all, pinched the cup and squinted his eyes and said: "Since you meet how can you make a woman give out silver, my son is no worse than a little broken silver." Liu Zhixing's eyes were even more strange.

These three dresses are worth a lot of money at a glance, and Xiuwen Yulian is now considered a famous family. Especially how women don't like dresses and makeup, it's just that Yang Chen is not happy to dig the foot of the wall in front of him. Just looking at the joy of the two women, they didn't say anything, just what was going on with the goose yellow silk dress.

How can you not see the joy in Xia Er's eyes, this is not good. Women's clothes, how do you know the size of a big man, and you can see that it is Xia Er's dress.

Xia Er took the dress and asked, "Your Royal Highness, this is for me." ”

Yang Chen squinted his eyes and watched the beauty smile and said: "Of course it's for Xia Er, everyone has a share, where can Xia Er's sister be missing, that's not to slap Boss Liu's face." Liu Zhixing's face was even more embarrassed.

Just as she stretched out her hand to tease Xia'er, a folding fan snapped on the back of her hand. I only heard Liu Zhixing say: "Sister Xia Er took Yulian Xiuwen to try, but she can't live up to the kindness of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Watching the three women go away, Liu Zhixing said: "This is digging the wall and running to my house, Meng Xinming still remembers the pleasure under the buttocks." ”

Yang Chen snatched the fan and said: "It's not an accident that we met in Dongshi, how can you miss the beauty, you are not Boss Liu." ”

How else can I endure Yang Chen's scoundrel, and I don't ask how to meet acquaintances. Liu Zhixing sat down and suddenly asked, "You should know everything that happened during this time." ”

As the prince of Tianshui Wang, although he does not participate in politics, he still has some understanding of the political affairs of the imperial court, and he looks up at Liu Zhixing, who seems to have changed a person. Liu Zhixing, who didn't want to press the Taiping City at all and couldn't raise his head, once single-handedly chased the son of the criminal department for two whole days, and finally broke into the mansion with a spear, and was stunned to beat the young man's nose and face swollen. If Liu Ce hadn't come forward, Liu Zhixing would have almost gone to prison. It's just that I don't care at all, and I still show no mercy when I meet later.

Whenever the four of them got together and talked about state affairs, the most discussed was that the young lady was so good-looking, and how the girl of whose family was so ugly. In the past two years, Liu Zhixing seems to have changed as a person, and he didn't discuss beauties, but asked about national affairs.

Yang Chen said: "Fortunately, you have changed. ”

Some didn't understand what Yang Chen meant, Liu Zhixing said: "Where have I changed, am I more personable." ”

Yang Chen didn't say anything, but said: "Daliang is about to change the sky, and the prince seems to have done a lot of things in the matter of Nanjing this time. King Qi put almost all his energy here, and in the end it was empty. I believe that after this incident, the courtiers need to choose again, and it can be seen from the two Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household that His Majesty is deliberately suppressing the King of Qi. ”

Liu Zhixing nodded lightly and suddenly asked: "Yesterday, His Majesty ordered the expansion of the thirteenth battalion, and I am already a military general of the fifth grade." All the uncles seemed to be preparing for the southern expedition, and His Majesty didn't say anything, and Wenchen didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it. ”

Unexpectedly, Yang Chen, who never cared about this, said decisively: "Sooner or later, even if Your Majesty doesn't do it, whether it is the King of Qi or the crown prince ascending the throne and going south, you still have to sit down." You think that the death of Coach Nanjing in Fenyang Town can be solved by negotiations, although Nan Chu takes advantage of it. But the boss can die once than he can kill again, you see that the next time Nanchu raises troops to attack, it will only be more ferocious. I am afraid that it is not only Southern Chu now, Eastern Wu is ready to move, and there will be an unprecedented war in recent years. You can be promoted so quickly, how can it not encourage soldiers, as long as the glory of the meritorious court will not be lacking. And the most terrible thing about you is not the speed of promotion, there are many people who have been promoted faster than you throughout the ages. Fortunately, you are different, you can make mistakes in the army, and even a trivial army is fine, but after the battle, the thirteen battalions cannot be defeated. The existence of the thirteenth battalion is accidental and inevitable, and you can also see that the generals who can go to the battlefield are old, and there are a few people in the younger generation who can provoke the military and politics of Daliang. ”

Seeing that Liu Zhixing was about to speak, Yang Chen directly interrupted: "You will definitely say that I have not been to the border army, and most generals are brave and resourceful." But you must know that looking at a country's military politics is not only about the general, but also about the commander. You said that the entire Changfeng army can lead the army to be invincible, and it is invincible to drive straight into the siege and pull out the fortress. You would say Lin Xie, he is old after all. One year can be ten years, but what about twenty Chinese New Year's Eve. The time of Daliang Taiping is too long, everyone wants peace, but how can there be so much peace in this world. ”

"At the beginning of His Majesty's accession to the throne, he was called the Northern Barbarian by Southern Chu, which was not ridicule but fear. At that time, everyone in Daliang did not have enough food and clothing, and there was no food growing in the field, so the man had to join the army to eat food and leave the food to his family. Nowadays, not to mention the common people, the rivers and lakes are backed by aristocrats and are deeply rooted. The court is not afraid, isn't it just a group of rabble who can't make big waves. Once the Southern Chu war is combined with the Eastern Wu, as well as the northern Turkic and northwestern tribes, it can be said that they are enemies on all sides, and these people cannot be killed. The biggest root of the girder is not here, but the local power. Not to mention the four major clans of the Mengshi, Li, Lin, and Zhou clans, which are deeply rooted. In Tianshui, what my Yang family said was more useful than the imperial court, and it was not impossible to say that it was a small country. Besides, there are so many nobles in Taiping City that I can't tell who it is, and the older generation may be loyal to Daliang. But how many of these people are hereditary, at least a lot in the past 100 years. Your Majesty can still hold it down if he is alive, but what about the new emperor after he ascends the throne. ”

Staring at Yang Chen, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, who seemed to know Tianshui for the first time, chatted a few words as if he had finished a hundred years of Daliang. More than 20 years ago, Daliang can be described as a country of a hundred battles, and it is not until His Majesty ascends the throne today that there has been more than ten years of peace and prosperity.

Yang Chen got up and said: "Look at today's Liang, who still knows that Taiping is standing on millions of corpses, and the city only knows how to spend money like flowing water, fine clothes and jade food." In the past two years, you know how many people have died in Nanjing, and you know that there are 100,000 households in the land of Tianshui and the two states. Sometimes I really want to ask if this world is too comfortable to live, go to Tianshui to see the scimitar iron ride of the grassland. ”

Liu Zhixing sat down and said: "The thirteenth battalion seems to be beautiful, but it is a group of people who have not really been on the battlefield. There were only a few people who had been killed, and the army had expanded to 5,000 in less than a year after its establishment, not to mention that they were all new recruits, and no one in the entire 13 battalions had ordered more than 1,000 people to fight. You said that the southern expedition has become inevitable, just in the past few years, the imperial court is bound to be turbulent, Your Majesty wants to beat the tiger of Nanchu down in his lifetime, so that Daliang will have another twenty years of peace. ”

The two were speechless, and Yang Chen suddenly said: "Xiao Ming said that he wouldn't touch that position, if there is no prince, he may still want to fight." Do you know how much regret I have in my heart, and remember what I said after that drink? ”

Liu Zhixing said: "Remember, if Xiao Ming is the emperor, Yang Chen Tianshui will definitely not let the northern tribes step into the Great Liang alone, Lin Zhong wants to let all the clans lie on the ground, I, Liu Zhixing, will definitely be divided into the Great Liang to protect the peace of the world, think about how ridiculous." ”

After drinking the tea in the cup in one gulp, Yang Chen got up and said, "If he is the emperor, will it be a joke?" It's a pity that the prince is a compatriot of the same mother, even if he is worse, he is stronger than the king of Qi, depending on who his subordinates are, and how a group of reckless men govern the country. ”

Immediately stopped Yang Chen and said: "Don't say these words again in the future, just keep them in your heart." ”

When the two were silent, a green shirt appeared in the courtyard, black as ink fluttering, and a jade hairpin hung two pearls. The hair bun is slightly curled to hide the willow leaves, and the eyebrows are hidden from time to time, and the smart eyes are shy. Flawless face with light blush, a touch of rouge and red lips. Wearing a green shirt with cloud patterns at the corners and peonies on the placket to escape, it seems that she can't compete with the woman's appearance. Bent over the slender waist and bowed his head implicitly, his white neck was like mutton fat jade. The fingers are unnaturally bent like green onions, and a touch of the chest is slightly raised under the green clothes.

The breeze lifted the corners of the clothes, and a pair of delicate little feet stepped on the bluestone. Standing on his long legs, the breeze couldn't bear to exert himself for fear of hurting the slightest. The peony in the courtyard is slightly closed, swaying in the breeze as if chirping to say something.

Liu Zhixing was dumbfounded, and Yang Chen kept clapping his hands, shocked.

Biting his lip and slowly raising his head, his jade teeth moving slightly. He lowered his eyebrows and asked shyly, "Is it good-looking?" ”

The two said stupidly: "It's good-looking." "Beautiful."
