Text Chapter 488 A Thousand Kinds of Tenderness Like Your Spring Breeze
In fact, there is no need for the prince to remind him, that very important day in his life, Yuan Zhao will not forget.
What does a great husband who is worried about the world give up the feelings of those closest to him for the sake of the overall situation? What do you say that a tall and noble person who shows his style and festival will abandon his family in order to save the common people? For example, the ancient holy king Dayu, and thousands of years later, so-and-so...... Similar false nonsense, Yuan Zhao has always scoffed at it!
A person who can't take care of even the closest people, a person who can't guarantee even the most basic human feelings, can he do his best to save and protect people who are more alienated from strangers? Can he consciously and voluntarily shed his last drop of blood for the country and the nation?
Yuan Zhao came to this era alone and received the kindness of many people. He already felt sorry for the woman who was far away in the blue sea, and whenever he touched the sachet he was carrying, guilt always haunted his heart. And the beauties around Chang'an, he will never live up to it again.
There are good people, and they are affectionate. The rest of your life will live up, and you will never forget your original intention.
However, in the current situation, the wedding gift of marrying Lingzhi and Suxi naturally cannot be too extravagant. Yuan Zhao didn't intend to be extravagant and wasteful, but he took this opportunity to have a good excuse.
Whether it is Su Lingzhi or Su Xi, they are all women who understand righteousness and will not care about these worldly forms. After the disaster and rain, the peach and plum in Nanshan, is full of fragrant trees, some people break a few branches with their hands, slightly shy, gentle smile, just like this spring breeze ten miles, ten thousand kinds of tenderness.
"Yuan ...... You don't have to worry about that. During these days, you have been running around for your father and the people, and it has been hard enough, we all know it. ”
"Suxi, I didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, so that you are also frightened and tired, I really don't want to go. The day chosen by His Majesty himself will come soon, but it is not good to change it, so it can only be done. You...... Hehe. ”
Under the peach blossom tree, the falling flowers are colorful. After late spring, the last petals are about to bloom and soon begin to bear fruit with green leaves. When Su Xi, the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, was held by her sweetheart and hugged in her arms, the emotions in her heart were as bright as the sunshine in this spring.
"You, why are you saying these things when you know we don't care? As long as you treat us well in the future. ”
"We? You mean......?"
"Of course it's me and Sister Lingzhi! Does this need to be asked? ”
Hearing the coquettishness of the jade man in his arms, Yuan Zhao's chin twitched slightly between her soft silks, feeling that he might have made a small mistake by letting the two of them stay together these days!
"You two? Hehe, what have you been discussing in the past few days? Let's hear it. ”
The princess, who was enjoying the tenderness and sweetness, wrinkled her nose mischievously, although she was a little reluctant to bear the warmth of this embrace, but she resolutely refused to tell him about the small alliance that the two had quietly made. She raised her head and looked into Yuan Zhao's eyes, a teasing smile welling up on the corner of her mouth.
"If you have the ability, you can ask Sister Lingzhi yourself! Forgive you for not daring, right? Hum! She said you're a little pervert...... Hmm, hmm...... You...... Yuan Lang ....... ”
originally wanted to rely on Sister Lingzhi's words to support the delicate princess who came to ridicule the other party, but before she could finish speaking, she was suddenly attacked by brutality. I only felt a tightness around my waist, and then Sakura's lips were calmly kissed, and the breath of the young man enveloped her breathing, and under the fluttering heart, her body fell into the tenderness of the other party in an instant.
Su Xi was a little dizzy, and between a kiss, the sky was old. She thought that a lot of time had passed, but she didn't know that it was just the moment when the peach petals fell from the branches to the ground.
"Suxi, thank you, no matter what happens in the future, I won't let you down."
Hearing the whisper in his ear, Su Xi didn't dare to open his eyes, not only because he was shy, but also afraid that it was just his hallucination. She really wanted to relive it again, it turned out, is this what love tastes like?
However, the good dream will soon wake up, the sound of squirming footsteps sounded from behind the tree, like a frightened deer, Su Xi broke free from Yuan Zhao's embrace, and saw that it was Su Lingzhi who came from there, she was so ashamed that she almost wanted to get into the cracks in the ground.
Lingzhi hadn't seen the scene just now, but Su Xi's somewhat messy hair and blushing face made her guess a little. Yuan Zhao saw her eyes and rubbed his forehead helplessly. It's strange that he has always had a sister-like respect for Lingzhi, but from now on, this woman who first took his hand and led him home will become his little lady!
"Suxi, it's time for you to go back to Chang'an. You are the identity of a princess, no matter what you say, you can't get married too hastily. Brother Yuan, what do you say? ”
Su Lingzhi knew that Su Xi was thin-skinned, so he wouldn't be curious about what happened just now. She came over to tie her somewhat loose hairband, but it was Yuan Zhao who asked.
Yuan Zhao nodded. Although he already had a simpler idea in his heart, it was still necessary to obtain the consent of the emperor and empress in advance. Lingzhi is right, Su Xi's identity is the eldest princess, even if everything is simple, it can't be too cold after all.
"Let's go back together tomorrow. I think Mr. Master has already prepared everything. You've been working hard with everyone these days, and your body is not in the way, right?"
Although the damage caused by the earthquake to various places on Changle Plateau is not large, after all, there is some clean-up work to be done, and in the past few days when Yuan Zhao was away, the two of them followed the Leng family sisters and everyone to be busy. At this time, looking down from this high Taoyuan, Changle Plateau has already returned to calm.
"It's all right! Everybody's so good, how can we do any heavy work? Ha ha! ”
Lingzhi held Su Xi's hand, and the two of them were indeed like sisters. They have been dating for more than ten years, and if it weren't for this affection, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to treat the matter of sharing someone together so calmly.
Yuan Zhao was dressed in green cloth, Lingzhi was wearing a pink Hunan skirt, and Su Xi was wearing a plain white long skirt. The spring breeze swept through the grass and trees of Zhongnan Mountain, and the peach blossoms fell into a row, and their hearts were full of infinite expectations for the future.
The sound of horses' hooves broke the peace, and a fast horse came from a distance, disrupting Yuan Zhao's arrangement. He didn't wait until tomorrow to return to Chang'an with them, but immediately jumped on his horse and followed the comer.
The person who came from Pegasus was Li Kang, the general of Yulin, who brought the emperor's edict and ordered Yuan Zhao to enter the Weiyang Palace immediately to see him, and there was an important military situation!
The urgent report of the general Wei Qing was finally delivered to Chang'an. The Han army lost the first battle, losing 8,000 soldiers! After this news was delivered to the emperor in an eight-hundred-mile expedited horse, no one else knew about it yet.
When Yuan Zhao rushed to Weiyang Palace and received the military report written by Wei Qing himself from the emperor, his face was also a little heavy. The loss was somewhat unexpected, and the sacrifice of nearly 8,000 Han soldiers was certainly painful, but what was more serious was that part of the Han army that surrendered to the Xiongnu after being captured was bound to create obstacles to the next step of the battle. In particular, the defection of the protector general named Pang Xin may cause more serious consequences, and even cause a series of chain reactions.
After listening to Yuan Zhao's analysis at the first time, Emperor Liu Che nodded. Wei Qing had already pleaded guilty in the letter, and the death of 3,000 soldiers of the Black Eagle Army was even more shocking!
The sky gradually darkened, the chamberlains turned on the lamps, and the emperor looked at the young Shang Shuling who was frowning and pondering, and saw that he had been running around for the disaster for days recently, and he had obviously lost a lot of weight. I couldn't help but sigh softly, walked to the side, and reached out to touch his shoulder.
"Yuanqing, you are about to get married, and you shouldn't have to worry about these things anymore. However, the battle with the Xiongnu was a big matter, and although the soldiers on the front line used their lives, the DPRK and China lacked a unified dispatch after all. Since I have abolished the captain, I should naturally take care of these things myself. It's just that everything in the court is complicated, and the palace is also very complicated, so there is no need for me to do it myself...... Alas! ”
At this point, the Emperor paused, as if to consider the following words. Yuan Zhao had already taken a step back, bowed down, and said loudly.
"Your Majesty doesn't need to think about it! These things were supposed to be done by his subordinates. If Your Majesty can be trusted, Wechen is willing to ask for orders, assist the two conquest armies, and make every effort to do all the backup matters in order to achieve a complete victory! ”
You don't have to say it clearly, just a little bit. The so-called monarch and minister get along like a fish in water, that's it! Emperor Liu Che was overjoyed. He hurriedly helped each other with his own hands and praised him sincerely.
"Yuanqing, how fortunate I am to be able to have your assistance, it is really a blessing for the Han Society! I didn't expect that this year would be an eventful year, with natural and man-made disasters coming one after another. Of course I can trust you! Now I can entrust the power to you, let you be fully responsible for the military preparation, and command the overall situation in Chang'an, what do you think? ”
Since the removal of the position of Taiwei a few years ago and the monopoly of power by the emperor, he can say such things, which can be regarded as the greatest trust in his courtiers. Yuan Zhao didn't agree immediately, he carefully read Wei Qing's urgent report again, and was secretly surprised in his heart.
"Your Majesty, until the end of this war, the minister is willing to act on orders and temporarily act as an agent for military preparation. However, I'm afraid I can't stay in Chang'an ....... ”
What do you mean by that? Is the situation so tense that you need to go to the front in person? ”
The Emperor asked, somewhat surprised. Even if you lose a battle against the Huns, you don't need to be so nervous, right?
Yuan Zhao nodded heavily. There are some things that cannot be said with such certainty in front of the emperor before they happen. But he will never leave it to chance. In some cases, the evil of human nature is worse than that of tigers and wolves! Wait until it happens to remedy it, and it's too late.
"This time, our Han Dynasty fought on two fronts, which is related to the fortunes of the country, and the victory or defeat is extraordinary! And the key to this is not the confrontation with the Xiongnu in the three cities of Shuofang in the north, but in the army of the western expedition. If the Western Expedition wins, His Majesty will see an unprecedented favorable situation. If the Western Expeditionary Army loses, the previous achievements will be lost, and both the west and north will lose, and the general trend will be suspended! ”
Yuan Zhao's expression was solemn, and the emperor suddenly changed color, and sure enough!
