In the vast hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the fragrance was wafting, and the two ladies knelt outside the beaded curtain, listlessly waiting for the summons of the master, looking drowsy.

In the hall, Yan Xiuli reflected the candle flame, closed a briefing again, and finally stretched her waist, with a worried look on her tired face.

It was learned from the briefing that Ruyi and Chen Lin's son Chen Hai Chen Ziqing stole Chen Lin's order and participated in political affairs in Mengjin privately, and in the name of the military envoy, supervised the transportation of 50,000 Hu grains and grass prepared this time, and had crossed the river and headed towards Luoyang.

These two people think they are doing seamlessly, but where do they want to get Ruyi and Ziqing are all children of important ministers, how can the family ignore it, even if Ruyi has practiced martial arts since childhood and has the ability to protect herself, Yan Xiuli is also secretly arranging countless secret guards to ensure her safety, so she knows everything that happens in Meng Jin, and the wishful thinking of these two people naturally can't hide it from her.

But since they have the heart to do things, although Yan Xiuli is worried, it is not good to deal with Ruyi's emotions, so they let the secret guards continue to protect secretly, fortunately, there is a large army escort on this road, and the prefecture and the subordinate place have undergone several rectifications, which can be regarded as orderly, and there are few chaotic people and chaos, and Ruyi should not have safety worries when he goes.

Busy all day, at this time finally have leisure, but it is already midnight, although the spring is strong, but this time it is already late at night, the cool breeze is coming, Yan Xiuli but feel cold, casually put on a cloak, lifted the curtain and came out, waking up two groggy and half-dreaming women.

The ladies hurriedly got up and bowed to each other: "The slave and maid are waiting for the lady to rest." ”

Yan Xiuli didn't feel sleepy at the moment, shook her head and said: "The moonlight is very good tonight, you can't live up to it, and go to the pavilion with me to sit for a while." ”

The ladies bowed in answer, each took his coat and put on his coat, and led the way by the light of the lamp, and came to the pavilion in the backyard.

Since Yan Xiuli took up her official position, she gets up early and goes to bed late every day, and she is busier than before, sitting in the pavilion and admiring the moon like this, I don't know how long ago it was.

When the full moon is in the sky, the flowers and trees in the backyard are reflected, and in the quiet long night, it looks a little lonely.

The coolness gradually increased, Yan Xiuli took a sip of sake, dispelled the chill of her body, looked at the full moon in the sky with a confused gaze and said, "How long has the prince been on this expedition?" ”

The lady mung bean replied: "The prince has set out for the expedition just after the year pass, and it has been more than four months. ”

Yan Xiuli rubbed her sullen temples and muttered: "Time flies so fast, four months have passed in a blink of an eye, the world is vast and thousands of miles, every time the prince goes on an expedition, the long is more than a year, the short is a few months, the food and clothing are not good, every day with knives and guns as a companion, I don't know if he is healthy." ”

Mung Bean said: "The prince is an iron body, and there will never be anything wrong, but madam, you get up early every day and are greedy for darkness, and you have lost weight several times, but don't be tired." ”

Yan Xiuli smiled bitterly: "The great Prime Minister's Mansion, hundreds of people, all of them must be controlled, and there are even more important military aircraft that cannot be put on hold. ”

Seeing that the lights in the east wing room were bright, and the only son Lu Xing, who lived in it, had obviously not slept yet, he asked the lady to summon him to come.

The lady was ordered to go, and after a while, she led Lu Xing over.

Lu Xinggong worshipped: "What is the matter with the mother calling her son? ”

Yan Xiuli asked him to sit down and replied, "It's late, why hasn't Xing'er slept yet?" ”

Lu Xingdao: "The son knows that his father is fighting outside, and his mother is also busy all day long, and he can't rest for a moment, so the son wants to learn more and share the worries of his father and mother earlier." ”

Yan Xiuli looked at Lu Xing's thin figure, far less than his father's physique when he was young, but inherited more of himself, coupled with congenital deficiencies, although there were countless treasures and medicines supplemented, he was still an ordinary teenager in the end. Fortunately, he is diligent and hardworking, smart and studious, although he has no ability to fight on the battlefield, he has the ambition to stabilize the country and the country, which makes Lu Bu and Yan Xiuli, who are parents, feel a lot more at ease.

At this time, listening to what he was thinking about, he was even more moved to his heart, and said softly: "Xing'er is still young, it is the time to grow the body, you must not stay up all night and hurt your body, learning is important in perseverance, not overnight." It's not early today, so go to sleep. ”

Lu Xing nodded in agreement, and said: "Mother also rests early, tomorrow the government will deal with it, tired body, father comes back to blame the son for not taking care of his mother." ”

Yan Xiuli's heart was filled with warmth, and she said softly: "Okay, go to sleep, my mother is also tired." ”

Seeing Lu Xing return to her room, Yan Xiuli ordered the lady to clean up the decorations and go back to the bedroom to rest.

At this moment, the lady of the outer courtyard hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Madam, the commander of the guards has spread the word that the military advisor Sima Lang has something important to see. ”

Yan Xiuli's heart moved, the military advisor came late at night, there must be an urgent event, and she didn't dare to delay a little, so she led the woman back to the front hall.

Sima Lang was walking back and forth in the front hall, and when he saw Yan Xiuli appearing, he hurriedly bowed: "I disturbed Mrs. to rest, but there is one thing I have to explain to Mrs. ”

Yan Xiuli instructed the lady to serve tea and said, "The military advisor sat down and talked, what was it that made the military advisor come in person late at night, could it be that the battle on the front line was not going well?" ”

Sima Lang shook his head and said: "The prince has captured Nanyang, and is leading the pursuing troops to pursue Liu Bei's remnants, and there is no updated battle report yet." It's just that I just received an urgent report from General Zhang Liao for 800 miles, saying that General Cao Cao secretly mobilized thousands of elite cavalry from Runan, and he didn't know where to go, and he was likely to raid the grain route behind the prince, so I was asked to prepare early. ”

Yan Xiuli was taken aback, her husband is now in Nanyang, if she follows the direction of the military situation, she is afraid that she is already preparing to attack Xiangyang at this time, the battle line behind her is long, and the grain road is particularly important, so she must not lose.

However, the people who transported the military rations this time were the guards and horses of the Mengjin and Prefecture Chamber of Commerce, and the number was only a few hundred, and there was Ruyi in it, once it was lost, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The journey of transporting grain is slow and the road is long, if the cavalry of Cao's army raids, it is really impossible to prevent it, and he urgently asked Sima Lang: "The trip to transport grain must not be lost, and the military division can have good generals, so let him lead the cavalry to reinforce and protect him immediately." ”

Sima Lang said: "Now that the war is raging, the generals are stationed in various counties, the prince and the marquis have also transferred most of the generals when they go out on the expedition, and the northern guards are far away from quenching their thirst. ”

Yan Xiuli frowned, Guo Yan was severely punished by Lu Bu for the crime of dereliction of duty, and it was difficult to escape death, but in the end, Cai Yan pleaded hard, so that a group of civil and military officers had pity on him, so he was only taken away from his official position, and he was recuperating at home at this time.

Yan Xiuli knew that the war situation was urgent, and she had the intention to go there in person, but Anyi still needed someone to sit in charge, and the war situation was urgent, and she had no experience in leading troops, so she was afraid that she would miss a major event, so she said: "General Guo Yan didn't make any big mistakes, since the prince has punished him, he can be regarded as ending his previous mistakes." Now that the war is urgent, Guo Yan, as a general, should be useful, and the tired military division immediately ordered Guo Yan to lead the 2,000 cavalry guarding the city, and urgently rush to the aid of the grain army, so as not to let Cao's treacherous plan succeed. ”

Sima Lang came here to ask for Yan Xiuli's permission to allow Guo Yan to make meritorious contributions, but at this time, listening to her words, he was busy: "What Madame said is very true, I will go and order General Guo Yan." ”

Seeing Sima Lang retreat urgently, Yan Xiuli still couldn't let go after all, and sent Ding Xu, the commander of the guards, to come and ordered: "The battle strength of our army in front is tight, and there is a suspicion that there is a Cao army behind you who is plotting against you, you immediately lead the Prime Minister's Mansion to escort three hundred, rush to Luoyang to meet our grain army, and be sure to protect the safety of grain and grass." ”

Ding Xu said worriedly: "I'll wait for me to leave, what should I do if the Prime Minister's Mansion is safe, only more than 100 people will be left, I'm afraid I can't stop it in case of accidents, please think twice." ”

Yan Xiuli said with a solemn expression: "The big thing is important, there are 100 guards in the Prime Minister's Mansion for the time being, and there are more than 10,000 city guards in Anyi, you can go, there is no need to worry here." ”

Ding Xu saw that she had made up her mind, and she opened her mouth several times to stop talking, so she had to turn around and leave, but she heard Yan Xiuli instruct again: "Ruyi is now in the army of grain transporters, you must protect her when you go." ”

Ding Xu took the order and ordered the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion to assemble overnight, and from time to time they were like a gust of wind, whistling away.

Yan Xiuli stared at the moonlight, and at this moment she was even more sleepy, her heart was full of worries, only looking at the faint white clouds covering the moon, she suddenly felt drowsy in her head, and fell to the ground as soon as it was dark.

When he was in a daze, he could only hear the woman beside him exclaiming: "Madam, what's wrong with you." ”

However, it was said that Ruyi and Ziqing followed the grain army all the way south, crossed the Yellow River and Luoshui, and had arrived in Yiyang, a suburb of Luoyang.

Yiyang is backed by Songshan Mountain, the road is rugged and dangerous, and the grain army is moving slowly, stopping and stopping along the way, and I don't know how many carriages have been damaged.

Ruyi slept with the army all the way, and finally experienced a military life, but there was no imaginary suffering, and he was full of interest and asked Mao Ling, the captain of the grain transport, and said: "General Mao, Yiyang City is close at hand, and our carriages and horses have been damaged a lot, do you want to take a break in Yiyang, and then go south to replenish the carriages and horses?" ”

Mao Ling said: "Exactly, now that the carriages and horses are damaged, some of the carriages and horses are overloaded, if the carriages are not replenished in time, I am afraid that the timing of the delivery of grain and grass will be delayed. ”

Ziqing looked gloomy beside him, all the way down, but he had suffered a lot that he had never tasted in his life, he had always been pampered, and he had already been trying his best to insist, and when he heard that he was going to rest in Yiyang, his eyes were suddenly bright, and he said happily: "Great, these days are clear soup and little water, and I have lost half of my weight." Hurry up, hurry up, I heard that Yiyang barbecue is famous far and wide, and I can't help but taste it. ”
