Shen Wuhua lost her mother at a young age, she lost her father just before she got married, her husband treated her like a passerby, she had nothing but an empty queen position, and even the real power in the harem was in the hands of Zhang Lihua and others, Shen Wuhua was only left out in the cold, so that she could only eat fast and chant Buddha in the palace every day.

And in the end, she became a slave of the dead country for no apparent reason, as the titular queen of Chen Shubao, if it weren't for Le Chang's help, she might only have the fate of being arbitrarily distributed like the rest of the royal women.

From beginning to end, she didn't enjoy the love and wealth she deserved, but just wandered in the cold palace. All these years of grievances and sorrow seem to have been written in this poem, so how can she not be in pain and crying?

But before Li Xinchen could stand up and walk over, Shen Wuhua had already come back to his senses and fell to the ground in panic: "The slave maid is out of shape for a while, and the crime deserves death!" ”

Li Xinchen smiled bitterly, obviously this woman's recovery ability and endurance ability are far stronger than she imagined. But it's not incomprehensible when you think about it, people who can tolerate indifferent treatment like Chen Shubao are naturally not idle. What's more, this is also a member of the Shen family anyway, her father Shen Junli and uncle Shen Jungao are both outstanding people.

Stretching out her hand to support Shen Wuhua, Li Xinchen sniffed the woman's faint fragrance: "Have a good rest, I don't blame you." If you are sad, just cry out. ”

"Slave and maid, thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Wuhua said in a low voice, subconsciously taking a step back, keeping a certain distance from Li Xinchen. Obviously, the close contact just now had made her a little frightened.

And Shen Wuhua's reaction was seen by Li Xinchen, which was a little strange. It stands to reason that Lechang arranged Shen Wuhua in this East Palace, although it is not as straightforward as the arrangement of Zhang Lihua and Kong's two people, but it also has the meaning of leaving it to Li Xinchen to enjoy, Shen Wuhua should have been mentally prepared for a long time, such a clear meaning of keeping a distance, so that Li Xinchen didn't know what this woman was thinking for a while.

However, the twisted melon was not sweet, and Li Xinchen didn't plan to do anything to her directly, so he whispered to Yuan Dashe to prepare some rewards for Shen Wuhua, and strode to the front yard by himself. For the current Li Xinchen, there is no shortage of women, and Shen Wuhua's support for the sky can only be regarded as a small episode today, and Li Xinchen did not come to this East Palace to find a woman.

The front hall of the East Palace has completely changed, and the scrolls and so on that used to hang on the walls have been put away, replaced by one map after another, and the officials who come in and out are anxiously carrying all kinds of documents.

And in the middle of the main hall, a sand table covering the entire Guanzhong region is taking shape, with people from Guanzhong like Yang Su on the side to guide, plus the news collected by the white robe, so although this sand table cannot guarantee perfection, it is enough to be almost the same.

"Your Majesty." Seeing Li Xinchen coming, Yang Su hurriedly bowed.

"You're busy with yours." Li Xinchen waved his hand, making the officials who stopped and bowed to move, "How is it?" ”

I don't know what Li Xinchen meant by the "how" he asked, Yang Su said thoughtfully: "In the battle of Nanyang, the ministers thought that it should be ranked first, Your Majesty, please." ”

Li Xinchen bowed slightly, looking at the marks on the sand table, it was obvious that the Nanyang area was also the first. Nanyang, that is, Wancheng, is located in the basin and belongs to Jingzhou in Kyushu in terms of geographical division, but because it is still a certain distance from Suizhou, Xiangyang, Dengzhou and other places in the north of Jingzhou, in fact, the local culture is more inclined to the Central Plains that is closer, and in the Han Dynasty, Nanyang was included in Jingzhou more to take into account the staggered way of rule.

Now Xiao Shilian led an army of 50,000 troops to garrison Xiangyang, preparing for war while cultivating land. At the same time, Huang Wan led 20,000 soldiers and horses and Chun Yucen, who also led more than 20,000 people, to encircle Nanyang. These 90,000 troops are the largest number of troops that the Han can take out in the direction of Jingzhou now, and of course, in Hanzhong, Li Xinchen also has 30,000 troops ready to go down the river to support the Nanyang battlefield.

However, these armies will be used to attack Guanzhong in the future, and they can be invested in the battle of Nanyang, but they must not be consumed, otherwise the family of the Han in the past few years will be shaken clean.

Of course, now Yang Jian has only six or seven thousand soldiers and horses in Nanyang, and for this lonely city outside the pass, Yang Jian only adheres to the attitude of being able to maintain one day at a time. Li Xinchen attacked it with ten times as many soldiers and horses, as long as Yang Jian would not go out of Wuguan to rescue, then Nanyang County was just in the bag.

Nanyang, as the imperial hometown of the Eastern Han Dynasty, naturally has considerable political significance for Li Xinchen, the emperor under the banner of the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, Nanyang is also the only big city that the Han can find and control in the Central Plains, Xiangyang on the south side is a little far away from the Central Plains battlefield, and Luoyang, Xuchang and other places are obviously Yu Wenxian will not let it out. Li Xinchen wanted to collect and transfer grain, grass, soldiers and horses more conveniently to prepare for the battle of Guanzhong, and Nanyang, a foothold, was naturally indispensable.

"Hanzhong and the northwest have mobilized 50,000 troops and horses to prepare to attack the valley." Yang Su then led Li Xinchen's gaze to look in the direction of Hanzhong, "Now Li Bi has laid out three camps in the sloping valley, and then relied on Gudao County (now Feng County) and Qizhou to form a defense line connecting the sloping valley and Sanfu. ”

Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows, in fact, after taking Hanzhong, Xiao Shilian, who was the commander of the north side at that time, once occupied Gudao County and formed a fist that stretched out to Guanzhong, but at that time, the Han had not yet taken the northwest, so this fist was more like a piece of meat sent to the enemy's mouth, so Li Xinchen could only retreat first.

But there is no doubt that now Li Bi realizes the importance of Gudao County and re-fills the defensive line.

"Your Majesty, our best method of attack is actually from the northwest." Jiang Yuanxun next to him said in a deep voice. This old general is actually almost at the age of understanding Jia Guitian, although he has the title of a Zhennan general, but in fact, Chen Zhishen on the east side and Li Xun on the west side are in charge of the affairs of the south, and no one dares to really let this old general go to the southern wilderness. Therefore, Jiang Yuanxun was actually still in charge of the capital guards in the capital.

This time's strategy obviously made the old general see the opportunity to make contributions and prove himself, so he hurriedly ran over to mix and mix, and Li Xinchen had no opinion on this, after all, Jiang Yuanxun can be regarded as a horse for the first half of his life, and his experience is still real here, unlike Yang Su, a person who has never been in charge at all.

Therefore, Jiang Yuanxun can be regarded as having a guarantee here, lest Yang Su's idea be too unrealistic.
