On this day, Ye Yao received three urgent military reports in a row, with the cavalry general Nie Qian from the wind cavalry army, Ye Yao was secretly surprised, the Yongbei border is garrisoned by wind cavalry, in March this year, Yang Chuan led troops to sweep Beiyin, how could he gather troops so quickly. But I thought of the change of Emperor Dayong's throne in the past year, in addition to the wind and snow horses in his hands, there was no loss, and all the armies in the territory were greatly injured when they blocked the Wuling army, and it is said that Huizong had saved his family funds in the fief for decades before he ascended the throne, and almost fought in the battle of Tonglinguan.

In addition, the 20,000 Wuling troops originally stationed on the Yongtang border mutinied, and the newly appointed Han Wang Yehe transferred 200,000 troops to the eastern border to strictly prevent the movement of the Tang Dynasty. If Beiyin finds out again, the 30,000 wind cavalry that Duanmu Jingye brought to the Yongtang border and exterminated the Wuling Army did not return to the northwest, but it is really possible to attack on a large scale.

Thinking of this, although Ye Yao was reluctant to leave Ye Xingcan, considering that she had just recovered, she was even more reluctant to take her to the front line to suffer, so he left Huo Yue to protect Ye Xingcan, and set off from Cangge City with the secret guard Yang Jun.

After Ye Yao left, Ye Xingcan actually felt a little relieved, and it was also strange, this time when he woke up, for some reason, he always had a sense of strangeness and even a little fear towards Ye Yao, who had grown up together and had been attached since childhood. I also found that most of the palace were people, and even the grandmother and maid who used to take care of me were gone, and the personal maid was also replaced by Lingxiang from Cui'er.

Once Ye Xingcan asked the housekeeper, he only said that after the death of the old prince, King Yongning thanked the old people in the mansion for their loyalty to the palace all their lives, so they all let go of their free bodies, gave them a coil, and allowed them to return to their hometown. He also said that two years ago, the original maid and grandmother of Xingyue Pavilion were bought by Princess Ancheng and injured the princess, that is, herself, and were all killed by the prince's staff, so she changed another batch.

When the two compartments are combined, it seems that the entire palace is mostly newcomers.

Wait for Ye Xingcan to ask, what happened back then. The housekeeper only said that the prince was angry back then, and later, he forced the saint to send Princess Ancheng to Beiyin and his relatives before giving up.

And kiss, Ye Xingcan reacted at this time, before Ye Yao mentioned that not long after he and Lu Li, Princess Ancheng and Beiyin felt strange, and I didn't know where there was a problem. Now that I think about it, it is unreasonable for Ancheng and Qinbeiyin to be unreasonable, and then I understand that it turned out that Princess Ancheng hurt herself, Ye Yao was furious, not only did not let her father remarry, but also forced her father and queen to send Ancheng to kiss.

But Ye Xingcan clearly remembered that Ye Yao was good to Ancheng back then, but what happened later made his brother ruthless to Ancheng and forced Beiyin and his relatives to stop. You know, Beiyin is located in Mobei, the conditions are the most bad, the king of Beiyin is more than sixty years old, and married more than a dozen rouge, if you want to be with your relatives, you should also go to the Tang Dynasty, the scenery is beautiful and rich, it is said that the king of the Tang Dynasty is the first talent in the Tang Dynasty, and he is not very old.

Later, Ye Xingcan cautiously asked Ye Yao again, but he said the same thing as the housekeeper, asking a few more words, and only saying that it was better to forget about the past.

Unable to get an answer left and right, Ye Xingcan leaned sullenly against the fish viewing pavilion by Yanfei Lake, drooping his head, recalling his past with Princess Ancheng.

I remember that when I was fifteen years old, my father changed the name of the year from Jingning to Chu Can, although she did not say the reason, but she always told herself that this was her father's order to commemorate the dead mother concubine, Chu Yu, Ye Xingcan, and Chu Can.

During that time, Ye Xingcan was always very happy, until he heard that the Duke of Ancheng was going to come to Jianxing. Ancheng was married, but the original husband Yongchang Marquis died unexpectedly, so he begged for a decree to build Yongning Palace, saying that it was to recuperate and relax, but the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River was beautiful, and the warmth and beauty could not go, but he ran to the northwest to see the desert?

That year, Ye Yao was nineteen years old and succeeded to the throne of Yongning for three years. After the reorganization, the wind cavalry army, which has always been known as 300,000 cavalry, but the actual cavalry only accounts for one-third of the cavalry, will be reorganized, and the wind cavalry will be expanded and the snow cavalry will be built. Following the ancestral training of Yongning Palace, troops were dispatched in spring and summer year after year.

Beiyin is dominated by the grassland Gobi, the winter is bitter cold, life activities are compressed to the limit, everything begins to recover in spring, animals will seize the time to mate, reproduce offspring, in the summer the water and grass are abundant and the food is sufficient, the survival rate of offspring is also the highest, the animals are so, the Beiyin people are even more so, seize the time to accumulate energy, to meet the next winter.

Yongning Wangfu sent troops at this time for many years, and the pregnant Beiyin woman had to hide in Tibet, and in the end it was either an abortion or because of the war, the child was naturally gone, and the new strength was reduced, which could not be described as ruthless. By the time of Ye Yao, it was difficult for Beiyin to organize a large-scale attack, and he was stunned to withdraw from the border for more than 300 miles.

In the northwest, no one knows that the prince is young and handsome, his posture is as tall as a pine, his momentum is decisively like the sun, and his eyes under the sword eyebrows are as bright as cold stars. The whole Dayong, it is even more legendary that Yongning Wang Sheng's unborn good appearance, fresh clothes and angry horses, flying and jumping, bright and dazzling, when arrayed, he was murderous, white robe and silver gun, majestic and majestic.

Which young lady in the imperial capital doesn't want to marry, and which girl in the world doesn't want to marry, but King Yongning has a fiancée who is married to her fingertips, and she is a princess, and no one can grab it. The girls and ladies had to think about it, it would be better to be a side concubine and a concubine.

That year, Princess Ye Jiao of Ancheng had just turned seventeen years old, although she was similar to Ye Xingcan, but fourteen-year-old Ah Can grew slowly, and her goose-yellow shirt all day long was like a fluffy thorn ball flower, which was still half covered in the buds, and the thorn ball had not yet bloomed.

Seventeen-year-old Ancheng is a good year of jasper, beautiful but not charming, clear but not cold, with the unique grace and arrogance of the princess, looking like a peony up close, but like a blooming poppy from a distance, people are reluctant to leave after a glance.

On the third day of the third month of March, the red plums outside the gate were still blooming, Ye Xingcan changed into a red-edged white jacket, wearing a thick brocade skirt, tightly wrapped, only showing a small head, obediently staying by the side of the maid Cui'er, looking like a fluffy little rabbit. A pair of small hands pushed away the stove sent by Mama Feng, smiled sweetly, ran to Ye Yao's side, and stuffed the cold red little hands into his hands. Ye Yao shook his head helplessly, protected the fluffy Ye Xingcan in his arms, sighed, and warmed the hands of the little rabbit.

Last night, Princess Ancheng sent a message saying that she would arrive in Jianxing tomorrow. The old prince called Ye Yao back to the palace early in the morning to prepare to greet him, and then thought that Ancheng was the first princess to come to Jianxing in the past two hundred years, and pushed Ye Yao to wait outside the city with his personal guards, completely forgetting that Ye Xingcan was also a serious little princess.

Ye Xingcan naturally didn't follow, hurriedly put on his coat, and was about to go out of the city with Ye Yao, and the cavalry had to add a carriage as a last resort, and the speed slowed down. But it had been almost half an hour since they arrived outside the city, and Ye Xingcan was so cold that she threw herself into Ye Yao's arms, but she still didn't see Princess Ancheng's convoy. After another hour, Ye Yao was stunned and wanted to get angry, and he was reluctant to freeze Ye Xingcan anymore, so he coaxed and persuaded the little rabbit to push the carriage and let Huo Yue escort him back to the palace first.

Yes, Ye Xingcan didn't know what it was like when Ye Yao saw Princess Ancheng, but remembered that later that day, Ye Yao brought back Princess Ancheng and her party. Princess Ancheng was wearing a purple brocade robe and Ye Yao's cloak, but in Ah Can's eyes, it was still so cold, just curious, Ye Yao didn't feel annoyed at all, and accompanied her to the dinner party, not only sent back to the boudoir, but also took Princess Ancheng to Yuqi Mountain on the back of the palace early the next morning.

In the last days of my memory, Ye Yao was always rare, he either accompanied Ancheng to walk in the snow and enjoy the plum blossoms, or traveled to the lake to see the scenery together, and even went to the border patrol camp together.

————————

Here, Ye Xingcan couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of the past. On the other hand, Ye Yao rushed to Cangge City, only to learn that there was any urgent military situation, that is, Fengxi Fort was attacked, and two captains who were defending the city were injured, and a small group of Beiyin guerrillas who came to attack were killed by Fengcai, and a captain was tied up, and he was "waiting" in the dungeon.

The so-called wind cavalry suffered heavy casualties, just to bring Ye Yao over, who told him to never leave the palace since he took back the "Princess Yongning", the brothers were in a hurry, and they wrote a military newspaper with General Nie Qian.

made trouble and falsely reported the military situation, and Ye Yao also punished Shen Chun and Zhou Tan, who took the lead. Since he came, the prince was not idle, in addition to pushing the cup and changing the lamp, drinking from the sea, and checking the border guards by the way. It's just that he didn't stay for a few days, regardless of the brothers' stay, Ye Yao rushed back to Jianxing, only saying that Ye Xingcan's birthday was coming.

Yongning Palace. There is still more than a month, Ye Yao put down the military affairs at hand, birthday banquet matters, no matter how big or small, one by one. It was so fine that Li Ying, the housekeeper of the palace, had a headache, and he couldn't wait for Beiyin to come to the border again to stir up, so that the king of Yongning, who had been in the palace all day, would go to the military camp for a few more days.

is different from Ye Yao's anticipation and eagerness, but Ye Xingcan doesn't pay much attention to this birthday, and he doesn't seem to be very close to Ye Yao, and the little girl who stuck to him every day when he was a child is like two people.

Ye Yao knew that she was annoyed by her confused debt with Princess Ancheng back then, and she made a fuss. made a special trip to explain several times, and also brought a dry witness, but Ye Xingcan only remembered that they stepped on the snow to enjoy the plum blossoms, a good story, but he didn't remember that Ye Yao rejected Ancheng.

What Ye Yao didn't know was that since he woke up, Ye Xingcan was always in a dream, one moment he was a young man in Xuanyi, and the other was a heroic general, a lot seemed to have happened in the dream, and the corners of Ye Xingcan's eyes and mouth were full of happiness in his sleep. But no matter how sweet the dream is, he will forget when he wakes up, only the blood light in the sky remains, a figure is in front of him, the sword passes through his body like that, and then he recalls, it is full of ice between heaven and earth, and the cold makes people shiver.

Many times, Ye Xingcan wanted to ask Ye Yao if he knew something, whether the dream was his lost memory, but he was afraid that he would say that it was hysteria, and he didn't know how to speak.

I had to secretly ponder by myself, asked the aisle, asked for a signature, and listened to Master Kongming talk about Buddhism for a day, and the answer I got was nothing more than the conjecture that hurt my head before; Or to put it simply, the dream is a dream after waking up, so why bother to dig deeper.

It's just that once I met Shen Qiubai, a famous genius in Jianxing, he said that he went back to study it for a few days, and later replied that sometimes dreams may also indicate the future, so scared that Ye Xingcan bought a bunch of soothing incense, and didn't dare to dream again, and then look for that person.

On the eve of Ye Xingcan's birthday, Shen Qiubai found Ye Yao and pulled back to the mansion the idle prince who had only been focusing on how to place the flower and the pillar was going to change its color. When he entered the study, he didn't talk about it, and directly told Ye Xingcan about his dreams.

Seeing that Ye Yao was suddenly lost, he continued, since he can't get rid of it, it's not a bad thing, it's better to use it just right, if, as the little princess said, no matter what is in the dream, when she wakes up, she only remembers the flames of war in the sky and saves him with a sword, then simply take advantage of the saint's order to level Beiyin, find a suitable battlefield, and play a play.

Although he knew that his friend was thinking about himself, Ye Yao was still angry, slammed the door and left, leaving only one sentence, Ah Can has been my princess since birth, I was the one who lost her back then, and now I can only recover her, upright, why fake. Be your good general and plan for this country.

Hearing this, Shen Qiubai didn't bother to send it again, sat back on the bamboo chair, and said behind the bookcase, "Great Military Master, I'll just say that this trick won't work, you have a bad idea, and you still let me say it, and I was given a lecture in vain." ”

A middle-aged man in Tsing Yi walked out slowly from behind the bookcase, but he was not annoyed, and said directly, "You don't know that kid is behind the bookcase, do you think that Jiangshan is for you to plot?" In the past few years, Xiao Yao has seen a lot of dirty things, and his hands are covered with blood, and it is rare to remember that he is upright, who has won such a Yongning King? ”

Shen Qiubai finally reflected, still hard-mouthed, "Who said no, back then, your nephew Qin Mo brought the elite of the Wuling Army to the "trap camp" to Jianxing joint training, Chunyang Guan performed martial arts, and the six thousand Wuling Iron Cavalry were the snow riding ace built by the 'Quanannihilation' prince himself-Duanxue Iron Cavalry, six thousand against ten thousand, and won beautifully." Thinking about the battle back then, I was excited, no wonder Daozong said that Qin Mo and Wang Ye were "Da Yong Shuangbi". ”

Qin Bingyi, the first strategist of the Yongning Palace, who liked to wear green shirts, seemed to be a little dazed, and said after a long time, "The prince lost such a game, you remember clearly, that year Beiyin gathered 400,000 troops, crossed the border all the way, feinted to attack Bada, actually surrounded Cangge, and wanted to take Chunyang Pass, or these two boys joined forces to kill Beiyin and retreat to the Mobei Royal Court." ”
