At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu seemed to hear Xu Huizu's voice again: or because he didn't know everything and couldn't confirm what others thought, it was safe to do a little, watch a little, and keep speculating and confirming......

That inopportune cranky thought was a little spoiled for a while.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Chi Yue's crimson drunken face and tangled and confused gaze, but he still couldn't help but test it.

He gradually approached Chi Yue and walked very slowly, for fear of frightening her. The usual high and cold look on her face is long gone, and there is a pitiful look in her beautiful eyes, as if she is a little charming.

"Gaoyang Wang ......" Chi Yue sat on the chair, her hands tugging at the corners of her clothes, her whole body seemed to be tense, and even her voice changed, "What did you misunderstand and remember, just say it now." ”

"I misunderstood your affection." Zhu Gaoxu spoke softly and moved very slowly. Chi Yue was very nervous, but he was very careful.

Ji Yue's eyes flickered, and she bit her lower lip and shook her head silently.

In ancient times, there didn't even seem to be a word to confess, anyway, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't think of it. It's all by hints, by guessing...... What did she say, "Even if King Gaoyang didn't tie her up before, she would never reveal King Gaoyang's whereabouts, and she wouldn't even hesitate"; And what do you say, "go slower, go faster". Not a hint of affection?

Sometimes Zhu Gaoxu feels that his thinking still can't keep up with the people of this era. He is accustomed to the logic of proving the same as the problem, and no matter how complicated the process, the conclusion must be derived from known conditions; But Chi Yue's thoughts seemed to be more ethereal and more elusive.

It's like the flying catkins, gently undetermined, and directionless.

"Why are you holding on so tightly? I'm not a bad person, so relax a little bit. Zhu Gaoxu was talking with good words, and at the same time put his hand on Chi Yue's jade-white soft barley.

Chi Yue withdrew her hand slightly, but she didn't break free, her strength was very soft. She glanced at Zhu Gaoxu, and suddenly said with disgust, "How can I look at King Gaoyang and not look like a good person......

Zhu Gaoxu's hand began to move carefully, shook his head and said, "I'm just relatively dull, that time I met in Qingquan Temple, you asked me to hold you, I actually missed it!" ”

Chi Yue was even more ashamed when she heard this, and said in a trembling voice, "At that time, King Gaoyang was full of good intentions, but now he only has a lustful heart. ”

Zhu Gaoxu's head was soaked with beads of sweat, and he couldn't care about it much, as long as Chi Yue didn't resist hard, he would have to inch in.

After a long time, the entangled breath suddenly stopped. Chi Yue reached into her abdomen and grabbed his big hand hard, she raised her head, her voice was much clearer, and there seemed to be a look of fear in her eyes, "If I do this, how will I deal with myself in the future?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu's strength from her hand felt her firmness and seriousness. His palm was placed there, and he didn't know what to do for a while, and Chi Yue's words just now kept ringing in his ears like an echo.

At the beginning, Chi Yue was kidnapped and locked in this wine cellar, which was forced by the situation, and now if he uses force, it is really a bit of a danger to take advantage of others. What's more, Chi Yue was born in a scholarly family since she was a child, and she has been influenced by a lot of etiquette, so she lost her innocence in this wine cellar without knowing it, and she is afraid that it is really difficult for her to accept.

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu gradually calmed down.

After a while, he was back on the surface, and as he walked out of the utility room, he took a long breath of cool air.

……

I thought that I could relax for a while when I returned to Beiping this time, but a few days later, Zhu Gaoxu received an order to go on an expedition. When Yao Guangxiao returned to Beiping, he brought a letter from King Yan to replace Zhu Gaoxu and go south to the front.

After Zhu Gaoxu went to Beijing to meet Li Jinglong and others, King Yan seemed to have finally made up his mind and decided to implement a new strategy.

This time, the Yan army may no longer be limited to Hebei and Shandong!

Zhu Gaoxu ordered the headquarters to gather within a time limit and cleaned up himself. At the beginning of June of the third year of Jianwen, Zhu Gaoxu prepared to go out of Beiping again to meet with King Yan.

The damaged Qingtang iron armor has been carefully repaired. However, the materials that were repaired were different from the old and new, and the colors were different, and the patches of iron on them were like his war experience.

With the help of Wang Gui and others, Zhu Gaoxu finally put on heavy armor. He looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and his expression was not calm.

"Lord Wang." Wang Gui picked up the Yanling knife with both hands and handed it over.

Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his hand to take it, and the words he had said sounded in his ears again: What is so great about the emperor, he can still pull off the horse!

He pulled out the Yanling knife, inspected the brand-new edge, and sent it back to the scabbard with a "bell", hanging the scabbard around his waist. In a trance, I remembered what Yao Ji said: Don't forget the kiss of the skin, don't lose the words.

He was suspicious of Yao Ji, but one thing was certain: Yao Ji had not done anything unfavorable to him, and it was also a fact that she had saved her life in Jingshi; And Zhu Gaoxu promised her, but he didn't do it.

The grievances in this world are sometimes difficult to distinguish.

Bidding farewell to Princess Xu, Shizi and others, Zhu Gaoxu returned to the county palace, and saw that Wang Bin, Wei Da, Chen Dazhui and other generals and soldiers had been dressed in strong and stubborn troops inside and outside the gatehouse, and the civil official Hou Hai, the eunuch Wang Gui Cao Fu, and the servants in the palace all came to see him off.

Du Qianrui was also by Wang Gui's side, and it was the first time she saw Zhu Gaoxu covered in iron armor and fully armed.

"Lord Wang, you must be careful." Du Qianrui looked at him worriedly.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at her and nodded slightly, and saw Wang Gui and the others in the mansion bowing and saying goodbye, so he looked back and said, "Let's go!" ”

The horsemen left the gatehouse one after another, and Zhu Gaoxu took people to the north of the city to mobilize the people of the headquarters. At this time, he had 1,400 fine horsemen and more than 3,000 infantry troops, and a total of about 5,000 infantry cavalry. It turned out that the feudal cavalry in his possession was not in Beiping, but had already been in front of the south.

The weather was very hot in June, and Zhu Gaoxu led the people to march slowly, and camped at noon to rest, and they arrived at Lixian County several days later. This city changed hands several times, and was captured by the Yan army at the beginning of the year, and not long ago it became the camp of the Yan King.

But when Zhu Gaoxu arrived in Lixian, he heard that King Yan had led his army to cross the Hutuo River.

So Zhu Gaoxu was stationed in Lixian for a day, sending scouts to explore the specific location of King Yan, and sending troops to build a pontoon bridge. Early the next morning, before dawn, the army blew the trumpet to make food, and all the troops went out of the city and crossed the Hutuo River through the pontoon bridge.

That night, Zhu Gaoxu rushed to the camp of King Yan, ordered Wei Da Wang Bin and others to choose a place to build a garrison, and he rode to the Chinese army to meet his father.

…… When several generals in the big tent saw Zhu Gaoxu coming in, they all looked sideways, and they successively clasped their fists and saluted: "King Gaoyang!" "Meet the ...... King of Gaoyang"

Zhu Gaoxu returned the salute with a kind face, walked up from the middle, and bowed: "Erchen was ordered to go south to meet his father!" ”

King Yan looked happy, got up from his seat, walked in front of Zhu Gaoxu, supported his forearm with both hands, and supported Zhu Gaoxu, "Gaoxu has made a great contribution!" If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have decided to go south. ”

"It is only a matter of duty for the son to share the worries of his father." Zhu Gaoxu said busily.

King Yan frowned again and said, "I didn't expect you to be so dangerous, for my father to listen to Zheng He's report...... Alas! After he sighed, his expression changed, "Fortunately, I am blessed and finally saved from danger." ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "I hope that my father can come to Beijing as soon as possible." ”

"Good!" King Yan slapped Zhu Gaoxu on the shoulder, then turned around and walked a few steps, saying, "Sheng Yong is in Shandong, and peace is still along the Hutuo River." Ping'an didn't have many cavalry, and his infantry marched too close for fear of our ambush and surprise attack, so we didn't wait for him before they could move easily. ”

Jin Zhong said: "The prince's size is very close, and the court still doesn't know our plans!" In the evening, when I visited the Malay newspaper, Sheng Yong's army gathered in Jinan from all directions, thinking that we were going to cross the river to attack the city of Jinan. ”

King Yan laughed when he heard this, and the generals also laughed.

Zhu Gaoxu forced a smile while thinking of the wonderful brocade in the cellar. Xindao: If I hadn't locked up Miaojin, you would still be able to laugh so proudly at this time?

Jin Zhong said: "Since last year, Sheng Yong has held Shandong as a foothold, thinking that it is a perfect strategy. If our division attacks Shandong, Sheng Yong will defend Jinan Jiancheng; I also thought that our division would not dare to cross Shandong, just because the officers and troops came out of Shandong, they would immediately cut off our rear road and grain route. Unexpectedly, the prince wanted to point to the river! ”

King Yan nodded and said: "Sheng Yong's heavy troops are gathered in Jinan, and we just took the opportunity to attack the cities west of Jinan, and Zhuzhou County is empty and cannot be defended." In this way, we will be able to cross Shandong and go straight south! ”

The generals bowed and said, "The prince is wise! ”

King Yan waved his hand and said, "Everyone go back to the camp and pull out the camp tomorrow!" ”

The generals retired, and King Yan left Zhu Gaoxu alone. Zheng He, the eunuch next to him, also went out silently, and soon only the father and son were left in the big tent.

King Yan said earnestly: "Your two brothers, the eldest brother is unable to move, and the younger brother is too young to have much experience, so my father can only send you to do errands." ”

Zhu Gaoxu had thought of a routine before, that is, he kept expressing loyalty repeatedly, like advertising words! He said without thinking about it at the moment: "The life of the son is also given by the father, as long as the father gives an order, even if the sword mountain and the sea of fire are all over the place!" ”

Although he was full of grumbling, he said that it didn't work at this point...... He has been thinking about a question for a while: With King Yan's suspicious temperament, when the war is over, will all the injustices and suspicions that he Zhu Gaoxu is now suffering be transferred to the head of the prince? The prince is hiding in Beiping and living a good life now, but it may not be the future......

He then said: "My father sent his sons to Beijing, but the situation forced him. If no one responds to our division going south, we can't cross the river and break the capital, and my father doesn't dare to venture south at this time, and our difficult situation can't be changed. ”

"Hmm......" King Yan nodded slightly, "My father is in a hurry to call you here this time, and I also think that Gao Xu is loyal and brave, and he can help his father." ”

Seeing his father's calm expression, Zhu Gaoxu knew that his father was quite satisfied, at least he didn't have to worry about it.

"Go, Gao Xu." Yan Wang Road.

Zhu Gaoxu hugged his fists and said: "The retainers retreat." ”

When he walked out of the tent, it was completely dark. The barracks on all sides were lit with fires, and at a glance, there were no heads and tails. At this time, it is estimated that there are more than 200,000 people under the command of King Yan!

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu is also looking forward to the repetition of history without any deviation.
