Chapter Thirty-Four: All the Years Have Been Passing By

"Yuan has Zhi Xi and Lan Li, Si Gongzi Xi does not dare to speak"

After the "childe" Yuan Peng sent the trace, he said that he inquired about the latest situation of the Northern Wei Dynasty, so he hurried to the corridor and told Yuan Yu all this.

Yuan Yu glanced at Su You, "I'll talk about it later" Seeing that she had gone deep into the dream, it was not good to wake her up, he gently picked up Su You and took her back to his bedroom.

"What do you want to know again" Yuan Yu flicked his sleeves and walked towards his study from the outside of the retrospective bedroom with a light breeze. Yuan Peng followed Yuan Yu closely and told him everything he had found out today.

"Childe, there is a letter from the mother country, which was sent to you by the Nanyang King Yuanbao Torch" After speaking, Yuan Peng looked at Yuan Yu's ear and whispered a few words.

After receiving the letter, Yuan Yu looked worried, although he and Yuan Baoju's father Yuan Yu are clan brothers, as early as the Xuanwu Emperor period, Yuan Yu's family has declined, but he pity his imperial sister-in-law, who was still pregnant at the time, followed the imperial brother after giving birth to the youngest daughter in prison, this matter is not regrettable. Speaking of which, he has never met his nephew Yuan Bao Ju, and he has nothing to do with it, Yuan Bao Ju believes in him, this. Yuan Yu was still half a surprise. "Ingot Torch"

Yuan Yu pinched the envelope for a long time, without the slightest intention of opening it, he looked at Yuan Peng and carefully connected the whole beginning. "Yuan Peng, is the relationship between this King of Nanyang and the current emperor average?"

After hearing this, Yuan Peng didn't think so, as we all know, the Yuan Bao Torch family was questioned for their father Yuan Yu's rebellion, and Yuan Xian, who was closest to Yuan Yu at that time, was almost also questioned. "But my subordinates heard that this Xiaozhuang Emperor Yuanzi and the King of Nanyang are not brothers, but they are better than brothers. Moreover, the old King Jingzhao did not agree with Emperor Xiaozhuang's father Yuan Xian to give birth to their respective wives in the future, a man and a woman became husband and wife, and the daughter was a sister and a son was a brother. Therefore, their relationship is not just an ordinary friendship between kings and ministers as rumored."

After hearing this, Yuan Yu shook his hand, feeling that it was not so: "This matter is by no means as simple as it seems, it is because Yuan Yu and Yuan Xian's wives were close friends in the boudoir, and the two wives were pregnant at the same time, so there was such an agreement, and now it seems that writing a letter is not that the King of Nanyang wants to win me over, but Emperor Xiaozhuang" As soon as he said this, Yuan Yu couldn't understand why Emperor Xiaozhuang obviously had Er Zhurong's big backer. But he came to him at the near and far, besides, Empress Erzhu is about to give birth, why would Emperor Zhuang win over me at this time.

"No, Emperor Zhuang is afraid, if the queen gives birth to a prince, then this child will be the prince in the future. As long as the crown prince is sure today, in this way, it doesn't matter if you want the emperor or not, think about it, the emperor expected all this, so he wanted to win over the Yuan clan and confront Er Zhurong" Yuan Peng said this, Yuan Yu quickly covered Yuan Peng's mouth with his hand.

"If you say such a big rebellion, be cautious" After saying that, Yuan Yu looked at Yuan Peng with a cold face. Yuan Peng also realized the seriousness of the matter and nodded slowly. Yuan Yu saw that Yuan Peng had understood what he said, so he withdrew his hand and looked at Yuan Peng's saliva that was still stained on his hand, and Yuan Yu rubbed his hand on Yuan Peng's clothes with some news.

"Childe, I insist on gargling, I" Yuan Peng pointed at Yuan Yu and wanted to say something, Yuan Yu looked at his hand and walked away in disgust.

It was night, it was already more than half of the third watch, Yuan Yu still didn't mean to be sleepy, he put the letter sent by the Yuan Bao Torch on the table, and stared straight for more than an hour, but he still didn't insist on opening it.

"Childe, no, let's not look at it, look at you, you are all sitting here, you have been sitting for an hour, you are not sleepy, your subordinates are sleepy for you" Yuan Peng yawned, "Ah~~~" deliberately prolonged the yawning sound, seeing that Yuan Yu still didn't know what to do, Yuan Peng was also a little impatient.

"If you're sleepy, go down and rest first" Yuan Yu ignored him and said coldly. Then he fixed his whole gaze on the envelope, and Yuan Peng looked at him, suddenly like a deflated balloon.

"Since the prince can't make a decision, let's take a look, after reading it, if there is no conclusion, then we will restore the king of Nanyang straightforwardly, and when the time comes, it will not offend in two places" After Yuan Peng finished speaking, he quickly walked to Yuan Yu's side, and opened the envelope with three times and five divided by two.

"You" Yuan Yu didn't have time to stop it, the letter had been dismantled by Yuan Peng, Yuan Yu patted his head helplessly and looked at Yuan Peng, "Who told you to dismantle it", Yuan Yu was about to be angry with Yuan Peng.

Yuan Peng pointed to the letter, and then pointed to himself, feeling that he was not a person inside and outside now. "I'm not looking at you for your hesitation, so I'll make a decision for you"

Seeing this, a trace of anger gradually appeared on Yuan Yu's face, he looked at Yuan Peng with annoyance, and then pointed at him, eager to throw him into the lotus pond outside the courtyard. "What I care about is not what this letter is written at all, what I care about is whether the letter will be sent by someone with a heart, we have been used, you are good, just open it for me" Yuan Peng thought that he had misunderstood what Yuan Yu meant, and hurriedly ran to Yuan Yu's side in a panic, and asked eagerly, "Then, Childe, since the letter has been opened, is the image big?" ”

"You say that!" Yuan Yu looked at him quietly.

Seeing this, Yuan Peng didn't dare to say anything, so he had to spread out the letter, hand it to Yuan Yu, and then said in a panic, "Then, Childe, let's see if writing a letter is harmful to us."

After reading it, Yuan Yu threw the letter aside, and then said slowly, "This letter is just an ordinary family letter, nothing more than Emperor Xiaozhuang's condolences to Ben's life during his time in Nanliang."

"The emperor won't be so boring, just this matter, and he also wrote a special letter to condole" Yuan Peng's whole person spread on the ground, and he was almost frightened to lose his soul.

"He's not bored, have you ever heard of a sentence, "Lian Po is old, can you still eat" This is what the emperor wants me to go back. After Yuan Yu finished speaking, he picked up the letter and lit it to the candle.

"Childe, you" Yuan Peng originally wanted to reach out to stop it, but when he thought of Yuan Yu doing this, he must have his own meaning. "Is that boy going back?" Yuan Peng asked.

Yuan Yu shook his head, he said to Yuan Peng, "It's not the time yet, wait"

When Yuan Yu said this, he really confused Yuan Peng, "Then when will we go back, and my subordinates should go and pack up their things."

"Even if we go back, it won't help, now, no one can compete with the Erzhu clan, and going back is also a mantis arm blocking the car, we can only wait, wait for a suitable opportunity for us to go back"

The next day, Su You slowly woke up, and found that she was already in her bedroom, after she washed up briefly, she walked to the study, and found that Yuan Yu was not in the study, she carefully searched for a lot of places, and finally found Yuan Yu in the hall, I don't know how, the recent Yuan Yu is very different from the past.

"Ah Yu, how did you practice your sword," he said, and Su You slowly walked to Yuan Yu's side with tea. Yuan Yu put the sword behind him and drank the tea with his other hand. Su You saw that he was practicing swordsmanship, and he was sweating a lot, so he picked up a handkerchief and slowly wiped his forehead for Yuan Yu.

In the past, he always put his hair down, but today, all their hair is tied up high, and today it is very different from the usual warm and jade-like hair. "What are you laughing at," Yuan Yu said softly in her ear

"It's nothing, Ah Yu is dressed like this, and she really looks good" Su You Waner smiled and planned to leave. Yuan Yu dragged her back, "Do you want to learn martial arts?" I'll teach you."

"Ah" Before Su You could react, Yuan Yu put the saucer in her hand on the table beside her, and then pulled out a sword from the scabbard on the side, and taught her one stroke at a time as if she had taught her to write.

In the evening, Yuan Peng saw Yuan Yu sitting alone in the courtyard, so he asked Yuan Yu the doubts in his heart, "Why does the son want the girl to learn the art of dancing and swords, you must know that the most taboo of a girl's family is to dance and make swords, it is easy to hurt yourself."

After hearing this, Yuan Yu let out a long sigh "Hey", he looked at Yuan Peng, in fact, he had also thought about these, but these were also unavoidable. "This king can't stay with her in Nanliang forever, and this king will never be a child of Daliang, if one day, we return to Dawei, you let her be a weak girl, what should I do then, so, I will do what I can for her, just do it for her to the extreme, even if one day in the future, we are not together, I can do the same, at least, she can take care of herself" Yuan Yu finished speaking, shaking his head helplessly.

I didn't expect all this to be heard by Su You, and I heard it completely in my heart. She held the freshly brewed tea leaves and cried quietly in the corner alone.

"Mu Qing, is your plan really feasible?" The last time the military tent discussed how to deal with Chen Qingzhi's strategic plan for this trip, everyone unanimously felt that the method that Er Zhuyan thought of had traces to follow. In addition, Yuan Hao is greedy and has no far-sighted plans, as long as he changes his mind and does not implement the agreement with Nan Liang, he will only have to destroy his relationship with Chen Qingzhi at that time, and at that time, once Chen Qingzhi is separated from Yuan Hao, this plan will succeed in one fell swoop.

Even if it doesn't work, then stop Chen Qingzhi from becoming bigger. Emperor Liang is suspicious, he is also afraid that the generals will gather the crowd, and when the time comes, it will not be controlled, and no one will obey him at that time. Therefore, Emperor Liang would not give Chen Qingzhi too many soldiers and horses, as long as Chen Qingzhi's grain and grass army could not be supplied, it would be a matter of time before he was annihilated in one fell swoop.

"Brother Heba, this is all on the bow, you will ask me again if it is okay. You can rest assured, since the marshal has agreed, this plan will not be a problem. It's just that later, you must see that the other party is Chen Qingzhi, you are rushing forward, otherwise I am afraid that he will smell wrong, and when the time comes, we will not be able to lead him to the tiger prison" Er Zhuyan patted He Bayue on the shoulder and asked him to relax, since he has come, he can only come and be safe.

Compared with He Bayue's impetuousness, Yuwentai was a lot quieter, he didn't seem to be in a hurry to watch the battle, but was very leisurely lying in the plank road that had been ambushed in advance, holding the grass and watching the white clouds on a sunny day.

He Bayue, who had eaten turtles at Er Zhuyan's place, still turned his gaze to Yuwentai, who had not cared much about the war, in a panic. "Kurose, get up, don't sleep," he said, and he subconsciously patted Yuwentai. Yu Wentai twisted his body with a look of ignorance, and continued to sleep.

"You kid, why can't you observe the battle situation well, you know how to sleep in a day" He Bayue reluctantly complained a few words about Yuwentai. Seeing this, Yuwentai had it, and glanced at He Bayue with a face that was unwilling to suffer.

"I don't usually see you talk so much, didn't Sister say it? Let's wait for the news, besides, this is not something we can come in a hurry, count the days, the general and they have already led troops to attack Luoyang, and after they attack Luoyang, Chen Qingzhi must feel that Yuan Hao is redundant, and flee back to Nanliang alone, at that time, he can go out, the closest road to Nanliang, that is, here. What are you panicking about, once the war starts, the first to run out must be the people in Luoyang City, there is no one at this time, which means that the general has not yet attacked Luoyang City, so this will, we only have to do one thing, that is, wait" After Yuwentai finished speaking, the hand that originally grabbed Yuwentai instantly loosened, and Yuwentai continued to move and moved the place, and continued to fall asleep.

He Bayue instantly felt like he had suffered a dumb loss, he was at a loss, he looked at Er Zhuyan with a stumbling face, and said slowly: "It seems that what he said is like this"

Seeing this, Er Zhuyan slowly said to He Batyue, "Brother Heba, you don't know, Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds: soldiers, national affairs, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored" After Er Zhuyan finished speaking, she saw the confusion on He Batyue's face, and then explained to He Batyue with a smile: "This sentence means that war is a major national event, and it is related to the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. Don't look at Atai, although he doesn't say it, but he has really done his homework, that's why you see him so calm and unhurried at this moment."

Seeing this, He Batyue understood the reason, thinking that he had been marching and fighting for many years, it was not as good as a boy's attitude of judging the situation and sizing up the situation, He Batyue instantly felt a little ashamed.

"Big man, don't think that if you don't speak, I won't know that you are shy" Seeing this, Yuwentai didn't forget to tease He Bayue.

"Bastard boy, if you haven't been beaten for a few days, you have itchy skin, right?" After speaking, He Bayue couldn't help but want to teach Yuwentai a lesson, but because of Er Zhuyan's presence, he had to give up.

Just when He Bayue wanted to teach Yuwentai a lesson, a small soldier suddenly ran forward and reported that Chen Qingzhi and the others had begun to flee from the capital.

"Report, young master, General Hebal. The general sent a letter that they had killed Yuan Hao, and Chen Qingzhi was now fleeing to us. ”

Er Zhuyan listened, and then waved his hand to let the little soldier go down. "Okay, I see, you go down"

"No" soldier slowly retreated.

Seeing this, a small soldier next to him immediately said: "General, they have succeeded, then should we immediately call someone to surround this place, so that Chen Qingzhi will not come back?"

"No, what's the hurry, Chen Qingyi brought a total of 7,000 men and horses, our men and horses here, less than 5,000, 5,000 enemies and 7,000, you still want to catch him all at once, we can only wait until they enter Xingyang, divide him into two here, cut off the main force of the Liang army in front and behind, wait until their army escapes to half, close the gate, as for the back, they will be disposed of in the tiger prison, it has nothing to do with us" Yu Wentai glanced at the little soldier, and couldn't help but despise this little soldier in his heart, really has no brains, How could such a scheme be suggested. Then he continued to pretend to sleep as if nothing had happened.

The little general was so stunned by Yu Wentai that he was still speechless, so he had to give up obediently. He Batyue was a little puzzled, he looked at Er Zhuyan, and then raised his own questions. As a result, before he could speak, Er Zhuyan saw it. "Brother Hebal has something to say"

He Bayue said slowly: "This Emperor of Southern Liang, since he has the intention to let Chen Qingzhi come to my Great Wei to rebel, why did he only give him 7,000 soldiers and horses, it is really stingy, if it is increased tenfold, I am afraid that at this time, the history of my Great Wei will be rewritten."

Er Zhuyan shook his head and said with a smile: "Emperor Daliang wouldn't do that, he had also led soldiers to fight before, although he wanted to replace my Great Wei, but he didn't have a long-term plan." The country is easy to get, people's hearts are rare, for things that are not sure, Emperor Wu of Liang will not take the risk to do it, he asked Chen Qingzhi to come to my Great Wei, just to make Yuan Hao's face look better, and he didn't really want to help him seize power, even if Chen Qingzhi really succeeded in this trip, he would be suspicious of Emperor Liang when he went back, Emperor Liang was suspicious, this is probably the end of the bird, the good bow is hidden"

As he was talking, he saw a ragged woman under the building sign, her legs were all covered with mud, and she lived with a crutch that was about to break, and sang this nursery rhyme as she walked:

"You love Li Daochang, I love the monk under the moon. When Wen Jun came, he stepped on the thorns and admired the frost flowers and leaves. The weather is dry and there is nothing good, and the nectar is ready to cook wine. Wen Jun liked to learn when he was young, and he could distinguish between spring flowers and autumn moons. I have heard the intention of the young man next door, but I don't know anything. If I hear about the return date early, I will fold a glass of plum wine. The first time I saw the yellow flower for the spring, and the second time I saw the yellow flower cooking, I sat on the bridge for three autumns, and the fragrance of green plum wine was deep in the lane, and I didn't see the young man with an umbrella. ”

"What kind of song this lady sings, I have never heard of it" Er Zhuyan heard the song sung by this woman, and immediately felt a little confused, she looked at the people around her and said: "Why does this woman walk away with a cane alone, but sing such a desolate song"

"Hey" A soldier shook his head helplessly, obviously knowing the meaning of this song.

"You know what this song means," Er Zhuyan looked at the soldier who answered

"Yes" The soldier, after saluting Er Zhuyan, told Er Zhuyan the origin of this story in detail. It turned out that this mother-in-law and the childhood sweetheart in the poem were a pair of lovers, and the two broke up because of their different beliefs. Later, when one of them gave up his preferences to follow the other, he searched for a long time, and finally found that person in a deep alley, but the young man who originally admired him fell in love with someone else, and the old woman didn't want to believe the facts, so she kept waiting, waiting. She was waiting for the young man to come back. However, I couldn't wait for that person any longer. Maybe from the beginning, the two people were destined to be wrong, even if they were forcibly corrected and had different beliefs, they would still be strangers after all.
