Defecting to Dingxi cannot be said to be a bad idea, and Zhao Yanli is not resistant to changing masters.

Yes, if he defects to Dingxi, Zhao Rangan's life will probably be worried. But what does it matter?

How many of those who have become great things since ancient times are children who are in love with their children? Don't say it too early, don't say it far away, only talk about Dingxi, Puqin and Ran Xing, who just died in the country. Ling Hu Feng and Ling Hu Yong's uncle and nephew, one of them is deeply in love with Guo Baiju, but he wants to kill his own uncle, and the other is said to be when he is running for his life, his son Ling Hule can not do it, and even try to shoot him to death with his own hands; Since Pu Mao ascended the throne, he has shown "benevolence" everywhere, but when he killed Pu Changsheng, he did not hesitate at all; Not to mention Ran Xing, for the sake of the "throne" of the two counties, father and son killed each other, uncles and nephews killed each other, and killed each other for several generations.

Another example is Qu Yuanguang, which Zhao Yanli doesn't know, for the sake of tribal independence and the "great ambition" of not being "enslaved" by the Tang people, he can also design a frame-up for his brother Koji Zhu.

With Zhao Yanli's repetitive nature, the fate of his son Zhao Rangan is the same as that of Aliluo, and he doesn't care about it at all.

Zhao Ran didn't care, but his life was very important.

Lu Ming, Ji He, the two prison guards, are not bare-bones commanders, and they also have soldiers and horses under their hands, which is one of them; Tianshui County also has a garrison, and the number is quite large, Pu badger Sun lost the camp in Longxi, moved to Tianshui, his headquarters was lost, Pu Mao gave him five thousand soldiers, plus the original garrison of Tianshui, now there are about seven or eight thousand Rong and Tang Shizhong in Tianshui, this is the second.

Two reasons caused Zhao Yanli, although she felt that Zhao Xing's suggestion was good, but when it came to action, she still had to think twice.

On this day, Zhao Yanli, Ran Sengnu, Lu Ming, Ji He and other commanders arrived in Tianshui County and joined Pu Badger Sun.

After only three days of rest, Lu Ming and Ji He obtained the consent of Pu Badger Sun, and asked Zhao Yanli to take advantage of the excellent opportunity that Lu Shuang had returned to Guyin and Linghu Qufang to Longxi, Wudu, and Yinping, and had not yet familiarized themselves with the situation, and sent troops to harass the Longxi County Koji Ball Department in front of him to probe and see if he could launch a major offensive and recapture Longxi in one fell swoop.

Zhao Yanli was full of reluctance, and could only listen.

Pu Badger Sun, Pu Luogu, and Gou Xiongshang can't beat the camp of koji ball, but Zhao Yanli has no fighting spirit?

The two were only a little contact, and without the koji ball, Wang Shuwang led the Jian'er battalion to charge, and the Tiefu soldiers were defeated and returned.

Lu Ming broke into Zhao Yanli's tent and questioned him: "Do you want me to play the king and impeach you for fear of war?" ”

Zhao Yanli had no choice but to order Zhao Xing to personally lead the troops and attack again.

In this way, the tug-of-war in Longxi, which lasted for a long time, kicked off in Zhao Yanli's bitterness.

……

But not to mention the war in Longxi, nor to say that after Linghuqu and Beigong Yue arrived in Wudu and Yinping one after another, with the help of Li Liang and other local clans and powerful forces, while strictly preventing the secret envoys of Ran Seng and slaves from sneaking in, they suppressed and shared and digested this newly acquired territory.

It is only said that Dingxi is in the middle school.

……

In midsummer, one day in the second half of the year is Ling Hule's birthday.

The birthday of the lord of the country is celebrated by the whole country.

The governors of Shazhou, Longzhou, and Qinzhou sent officials to the capital in advance to contribute to the capital.

The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee congratulated the ministers for days and days.

The five cities of Guyin, under the organization of Pankuan, put up lanterns early, and the tricksters from the Western Regions and the local warlocks began to compete in the streets from the middle of the year, performing illusions, swallowing knives and spitting fire, planting melons and trees, slaughtering people and horses, and it was very lively.

The Buddhist temples and temples inside and outside the city also open dojos or offer sacrifices to pray for Linghule. The monk of the Western Domain, Kumarosh, has become the leader of the Guyin Buddhists, and he and the monk Daozhi personally ascended the altar and presided over the ceremony.

In the Four Seasons Palace in Midtown, a grand banquet was also held on the day of Ling Hule's birthday.

Pan Kuan, Chen Sun, Sun Yan, Xin Er, Cao Fei, Zhang Hun and so on all attended. A few days after Koji Shuang returned to Guyin, he also participated. Bai Chun, the king of the Western Regions Qiuzi Kingdom, and the group of protons and Aliluo sent to Guyin by various countries were also invited to participate.

The banquet starts in the morning and continues until nightfall.

Linghu Le because he was happy, he didn't sleep well the night before, the child's physical age, his energy was not good, and he couldn't hold it anymore, and in order not to teach him badly, there were no singing and dancing girls in the palace, and the ministers were all following the rules, he inevitably felt bored, so his eyelids kept going down, and little by little, he dozed off.

Zhang Daojiang was also at the banquet, his official position was low, and he failed to sit in the forefront, but the power of Cao's examination was great, and as Cao Shi, his seat was not very low. He noticed that Ling Hule was bored and sleepy, so he put down the wine cup, attended the line to His Majesty, and said respectfully: "I wish the king a long life!" ”

Ling Hule opened his eyes and saw that it was Zhang Daojiang, he was dazed and paused, and said affectionately: "You come close." Since you left the palace, Lonely and you haven't played with the hidden hook for a long time. The slaves and maids in the palace are all stupid, hiding and hiding, and no one can deceive Lone, and they are always guessed correctly by Lone, and they are very bored! You play two games with Gu, okay? ”

Zhang Daojiang bowed down and said: "The king has issued an order, how dare the Dao general disobey." It's just a play of hiding hooks, which requires many people, and it can't be played with only ministers and kings. ”

"Hidden Hook" is a popular game at the moment.

The gameplay is: divide the participants into two groups with an equal number of people,—— if the number of people is odd, one person is attached to the game, called "flying birds". Take anything and use it as a "hook". One group hides, one group guesses. The "hook" moves around in the palms of the Tibetan people, and finally falls into the hands of one person, while others try to make false appearances to confuse the other, "showing the slightest trace of suspicion and revealing suspicion." If the final guesser guesses who the hook is in the right hand, the guesser wins, and if the guess is wrong, the Tibetan side wins.

Ling Hule smiled: "The hall is full of people, and there are not enough actors, why is it difficult?" Looking towards the hall, the first one looked at Xin Er, who was sitting nearby, and exclaimed, "Agua! Come here! ”

Zuo sat next to Ling Hule, and when he heard Ling Hule's shout, his eyebrows frowned slightly, rubbed Ling Hule's head, and said in a low voice: "King, how many times have I told you, the general of the auxiliary country is now an important minister of the court and a pillar of the country, you can no longer call him by his nickname like before." As the lord of the people, you have to be polite to the minister. ”

Ling Hule stuck out his tongue and said, "Okay." He changed his words and said, "Auxiliary General! Please come here. ”

Xin Er had already arrived at His Majesty on the Throne of Linghule, and saluted and said, "Ministers and Xiner have come to see the king." I don't know what the king's will is to call his ministers? ”

"The queen mother is not allowed to drink alone, it is really boring to be alone. Agua 、...... Fuguo, would you like to play a game of hidden hooks with Lonely? ”

Of course, Xin Er would not refuse, and responded: "Yes." After a pause, he said with a smile, "Only the minister is stupid and upright, and he is not good at hiding, but I am afraid that he will not play well and sweep away the king's Yaxing." ”

Ling Hule said: "The auxiliary country is alone in the Western Regions, opening up the territory and prospering, and can win on the battlefield, how can a small Tibetan hook stump the auxiliary country?" Said happily, "One auxiliary country, one Zhang Caoshi, one queen mother, and one lonely." There are four of us now! The more people in this play, the more fun it is, find a few more people to come! ”

A person sat next to him and said timidly: "Can a concubine be counted as one?" ”

It was the daughter of the Song family who spoke, Song Wufang, the living favorite concubine of Linghu Feng.

After Linghu Feng's death, especially after the fall of the Song family, Song Wufeng had a very difficult time.

She relied on the clan power and Linghu Feng's favor before, and she didn't have much respect for the Zuo family. Ten years in the east of the river, ten years in the west of the river. Now that Zuo has become the queen mother, Linghu Le has become the king of Dingxi, and her family is in decline, even though Zuo is not a careful person and has not embarrassed her too much, but the palace maids and eunuchs of Lingjuntai, out of the sake of pleasing Zuo, it is conceivable that they will deliberately treat her slowly.

Song Wufang didn't dare to complain.

In order to avoid a worse situation, after Song Hong left the capital and Song Fang was killed, in these months, except for asking An Zuo's family in the morning and evening, most of the time, he stayed in his deserted palace, and he didn't even go out of the door.

But today is Ling Hule's birthday, anyway, she is one of the two queens of Ling Hu, but she has to show up, so she also appeared at this banquet, and the seat is closest to Ling Hule and Zuo.

Ling Hule was young, and although he didn't have a good impression of Song Wufang, he didn't have much bad feelings, and after listening to her words, he nodded and said, "Okay!" You're one too! "In the inspection hall, three more people were selected, one was Bai Chun, the king of Qiuci whose head was clamped, one was Chen Sun, and the other was Huang Rong, who was a regular attendant.

Eight people, you can play.

Linghu Le divided eight people into groups, he, Zuo, Xin Er, and Zhang Daojiang were in a group; Song Wufang, Huang Rong, Chen Sun, and Bai Chun are in a group.

The eunuch held a pearl.

Ling Hule smiled: "Let's have a lottery!" The first color head, alone! Whoever guesses right, this pearl will be given to whom! Said to Xin Er, "The next lottery, just ask the auxiliary general to come out, okay?" ”

Xin Er coughed and said, "The minister's family is poor, and he can't take out such a pearl!" ”

"Anything!"

Xin Er promised.

Linghu Lexiao said to Huang Rong and the others: "The color head is alone, and you can't guess it alone." This pearl is up to you to guess! ”

He dragged Zuo down from the throne and motioned for Xin Er and Zhang Dao to stand side by side with them.

How dare Xin Er and Zhang Daojiang stand side by side with Ling Hule and Zuo?

The two of them leaned back slightly, standing sideways, standing beside Zuo. Zhang Daojiang's position is humble, standing at the outermost, next to Zuo's.

A faint fragrance blew into Xin Er's nose.

Xin Er is already very familiar with this fragrance. This is Zuo's clothing fragrance, and it is still the spice he brought back from the Western Regions.

It was a hot day in May, and although there were ice cubes to cool down, Zuo was also sweating.

Sweat blends with the fragrance of clothes, forming an indescribable and inexplicable smell, like the smell of gentle and luscious meat, which lingers around the nose.

From the beginning of the banquet to just now, there were constantly people toasting Xin Er, and Xin Er mostly tasted it, but in general, he drank a lot. The smell of sweat and the strength of the wine, for a while, the blood surged, and the spirit shook.

He secretly said "oops", and hurriedly pinched his fingers hard, forcing himself to settle down.

Zuo's robe is dressed in a splendid cloud light robe, the collar is decorated with bright moon beads, with jade pendants, a gorgeous crown, clouds and temples are piled up, like light smoke and dense fog, the phoenix hairpin trembles, with flying gold plum blossoms, the forehead is dyed yellow, and there is a ruby pendant hanging in the ear.

The grace is graceful, and the face is peerless.

Xin Er half-bowed, and the first thing that jumped into her eyes was her bright red and tender lips, and her delicate chin was like a ceramic mouth, which was extremely seductive.

Xin Er swallowed his saliva and struggled to twist his face away.

Song Wufang and the other four stood in their positions and lined up opposite Ling Hule and the others.

Ling Hule grabbed the pearl, held it in his hand, put his hand behind his back, lifted his eyes, turned around the faces of Song Wufang and the other four, and pretended to say, "Who is Lonely?" …… Zhang Caoshi, come here, give it to you! When Zhang Dao came to his side and put his hand behind him, he said, "It's better to give it to the queen mother!" Zhang Caoshi, you better go back to the station. ”

Zhang Daojiang responded: "Yes." He clenched his palms and returned to his place.

Ling Hule did give the pearl to the Zuo family.

Zuo couldn't help laughing, asked Ling Hule's opinion, and said, "You gave me the beads, so who should I give them to?" ”

Ling Hule said: "Give it to the auxiliary country!" ”

Zuo turned his head and said to Xin Er: "Please stretch out your hand, general." ”

Xin Er took a half step forward and reached behind Zuo's back.

Zuo couldn't see behind him, so he only shook his right hand holding Mingzhu, and then spread out his empty left hand to remind Xin Er where to pick it up. Her outstretched left hand is narrow and slender, soft and fair. Xin Er shook his head and hurriedly handed his hand to Zuo's right hand. He drank the wine, his mind couldn't be steady, and his outstretched hand couldn't help but touch Zuo's arm.

I felt that the arm was greasy and slippery, and when it was touched on the hand, it was really the same as a ball.

Zuo was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to pull his arm out from behind him, in front of the public, Song Wufang and the other four people were not able to do such a gaffe. Her breathing was slightly short, and her noble face showed her shyness, and she added some spring color to her cheeks, similar to being drunk, but fortunately she also drank at the right time, so she covered up the past and was not noticed by Ling Hule, Song Wufang, etc.

She hurriedly let go of her hand and dropped the beads to Xin'er.

Then, Zuo withdrew his hand and hid it in his sleeve.

Xin Er's heart beat like thunder, pretending to be calm, and said with a smile: "The queen mother gave the beads to the minister." His Holiness gave it, and it is impossible to say goodbye. Then this bead will be held by the minister. Said to Zhang Daojiang, "Zhang Caoshi, don't blame me for being stingy." ”

Zhang Daojiang said respectfully: "How dare Dao generals!" ”

Ling Hule said to Song Wufang and the other four: "Okay, let's hide it, guess it!" ”

Bai Chun guessed that the beads were in Ling Hule's hands.

Ling Hule looked at Bai Chun's flattened head with pity and did not speak.

Huang Rong and Chen Sun guessed that the beads were in the hands of Zhang Daojiang.

Ling Hule smiled and waited for Song to guess.

Song Wuflaw's dress is plain and unfat, but it shows off her skin is delicate, light and beautiful.

Ling Hule urged her and said, "Guess quickly." ”

Song Wufang hesitated, his soft lips opened lightly, revealing his teeth as white as milk, and said weakly: "The one who guessed the pearl of the concubine is the general of the auxiliary country." As she spoke, her eyes stopped on Xin Er's body, as if she didn't dare to look directly at Xin Er, who had single-handedly knocked down their Song family, her eyes were low and upward, and the frightened rabbit was like, and her black and bright pupils were scared.

Xin Er said in his heart: "She actually guessed it?" Showing his hand to reveal the pearl, he pleaded guilty to Ling Hule, "The minister is incompetent, too stupid, and can't hide it from Cao." ”

Ling Hule waved his hand generously and said, "The game, how can you definitely win?" If you lose, you lose. Again! ”

But because Shicai touched Xin'er's skin, Zuo had no intention of playing anymore, she pretended to be tired and said, "I'm tired." King, it's not early, the birthday banquet should stop, let's play again in the future! ”

Ling Hule pouted, unhappy, but there was no way.

Jun didn't joke, and the pearl was given to Song Wufang.

……

The banquet was about to disperse, and Zuo and Ling Hule left the palace first.

On the way back to Lingjuntai, Ling Hule fell asleep.

Zuo hugged him lovingly, gently stroked his cheek, and said in his heart: "The king is getting older, and in the first two months, when chatting with Agua, Agua said that it was time to set a family affair for the king; At today's banquet, Chen Sun also said that it was time to marry the king, and proposed a candidate, who was the daughter of Koji Shuang. I wanted to ask Agua for his opinion, but I never got a chance at the banquet. Let's wait for tomorrow! I summoned him to the palace and asked him carefully. ”

Thinking of the scene when the two people in the hall met their hands, Zuo's cheeks couldn't help but turn crimson again, and she thought, "I don't know if anyone has seen it?" That's it, I still won't summon Ah Gua into the palace tomorrow, but instead call Shen Ai into the palace, and ask her to go back and ask Ah Gua on my behalf. ”

……

After sending Zuo, Linghule, and Song Wufeng back to the palace, Xin Er and others also went out of the palace and returned home.

Until he returned to the house, Xin Er was still unsettled.

I simply didn't sleep.

Bringing the recent military newspaper from Longxi, he read it in the study all night.
