Chapter Eighty-One: The Situation Returns

The person standing at the gate of the courtyard was Qin Xi, in fact, Qin Xi was hesitating, he didn't know if he should step into this courtyard gate.

But then, before he could think about it, he saw Jade Dye standing at the window leaning out and waving at him. The next moment, without pausing at his feet, he walked all the way to the window where Yuran was standing.

"Qin Xi, why don't you come in and sit for a while?" Yu Ran looked at Qin Xi who stopped at the window in surprise, and asked with a slight wink.

Qin Xi stared at Yuran's face for a moment, then shook his head with a gentle smile, and said, "No need. ”

"Really? But it doesn't matter, I think you have something to say to me. Yu Ran's eyes were still shining, and it seemed that the embarrassment that happened in front of her between Rong Xi and Qin Xi a few days ago was swept away, or she could avoid it.

Qin Xi's reaction to Yu Ran had actually been expected, and Yu Ran told him that he was her friend and would never want to lose this friendship. On the contrary, if he continues to look at his connection with Tamarin in love, then they may be directly strangers to each other.

When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic, this is what Yuran has always hoped for, but it is also difficult for Yuran himself to do. Therefore, Yu Ran did not prevaricate Qin Xi for this reason, but used a more tactful way to look forward to a disguised ending.

"Actually, it's not important, I saw Miss Zhuo leave outside the courtyard just now, so I guess His Highness has already heard these words once." Xiu Ziqi's face was pale, and he paused slightly, and then said with a smile: "This time, I am afraid that His Highness will choose to stand up in person, then the first thing His Highness must ensure is his own well-being, otherwise even if the two countries of An Shang can be defeated, Ning Guo will not continue to be strong." And please - be careful. ”

Yu Ran looked at Qin Xi quietly, and after a while, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, and then nodded and said cheerfully: "Well, good." ”

Qin Xi's eyes swept over the jade-dyed cheeks, and he saw that the woman's face was still dazzling, her skin was brighter than snow, and her eyebrows were picturesque. He smiled casually at the eyes of Shang Yuran under Yuran's natural gaze, "Then Your Highness, I'll go back first." ”

"Go back? Don't you have anything else to say to me? Yu Ran seemed to be puzzled, and after she also received Qin Xi's surprised look, she continued to speak: "You just now meant that Ning Guo's current court is not the most stable, and it will definitely be very troublesome for me to leave, so—I'll bother you for the time being, Qin Xi." ”

Yu Ran suddenly grinned, she took a bright yellow edict on the table next to her and threw it directly into Qin Xi's arms, and then without waiting for Qin Xi to react, Yu Ran quickly closed the window.

As for Qin Xi, he held the edict in his palm, and stood there stunned for a long time, he seemed to hear her chuckle before Jade Ran closed the window.

Qin Xi looked down at the edict in the palm of his hand, and then spread it out again, just glanced at it roughly, and then understood.

It's just an edict, and the next moment you can pay homage to the emperor.

Qin Xi couldn't help but laugh a little when he thought of Yu Ran throwing the edict over so casually. He just stayed where he was for a while, then shook his head slightly, sighed as if holding the edict, and walked slowly to the outside of the courtyard.

Everyone was gone, and Tamzome was finally left alone in her room, sitting on the edge of her desk. Her elbows rested on the tabletop, her palms resting on her chin, and her other hand held a folding fan, sometimes tapping the tip of the fan against the tabletop.

After a while, Yuran suddenly couldn't sit still, she sat up straight, raised her head, and looked around the whole room.

"Rong is gone, why don't you let Yu Lan move back?" Yu Ran Wu whispered to herself, her left hand wrapped around the end of her hair, and after thinking about it, she began to talk to herself, "En...... Not good. The front yard is too deserted, Yu Lan is such a person who likes to be lively, so let her stay there for Leng Yan. She smiled, as if she had thought about a lot of things in her mind.

Jade Ran stood up suddenly, exhaled softly, and then crossed the screen as well, pushing the door open.

The wooden door was gradually closed from the outside, and in the last crack, a soft glimmer of light came in, reflecting the jade's clean and transparent face and a pair of dark and bright eyes.

Two days later, the two countries re-prepared their forces and pressed them to the west gate.

Late at night the day before, Yuran ordered to Taiwei Gong Hongyun that all the forces of the West City Gate could be used together in the next battle. And Yuran led another army from the South City Gate that night, intending to surround from the rear after the Anshang and Shang armies had lost their strength.

The two armies fought a diplomatic battle at the west gate of Ningguo for several days, and just when the two armies of Anshang thought that Ningguo's troops were about to be unable to support it, and the border city was about to be captured by them, suddenly an urgent letter came from the rear, saying that the army of Ningguo would raid from behind.

The general of the Anguo army this time is Sun Yi, the eldest king of Xiang, who is already at an age that is not confused, but the sharp edge in his eyes and the vicissitudes between his eyebrows can still show the feeling of leading the army for many years and riding on the battlefield.

In the Anguo military camp, the lights are still bright at night, many soldiers are gathered together, their faces are haggard, and in the camp tent, Changsun Yi is kneeling cross-legged in front of the table, looking at the formation spread out on the security case, and his brows are furrowed for a while.

"General, now that our Anshang and Shang armies are both under attack, it is too difficult to get out, but if we continue to attack hard, the chance of winning is extremely small. How good is that? Anguo's young lieutenant Xue Yan stood beside the desk of Changsun Yi, frowning.

Eldest Sun Yi frowned, tapped his fingertips on the table, and then said in a deep voice: "Ning Guo's general this time is Helian Yu, the princess of Dingguo who has always been dressed in men's clothes is indeed not simple, and it is no wonder that Ning Jun, who has died, will attach importance to her to this point." No matter who she is, no one dares to deny her, she can become the regent because of her true skills.

"I've always heard about her deeds, and I heard that the last time Anguo almost lost to Huaguo, it was because of her that it was resolved. This time the An Chamber of Commerce attacked Ning Guo, if I didn't expect it wrong, then she must have guessed it the moment Ning Jun Helian Qing died. ”

Xue Yan's face was solemn, "According to the general's meaning, she will also think that if we join forces, we will definitely start from the nearest west gate of Ningguo." And she took advantage of this to create a false impression that Ning's army was invincible, so she could use a surprise attack to inflict heavy losses on our two armies. ”

"Yes." Changsun Yi nodded, and then rubbed his eyebrows with some headaches, "I didn't agree when the monarch proposed to join forces with Shang to attack Ning, Anguo has just lost a Lexue City, and the other border city is still protected because of Helian Yu, and the two battles with Huaguo have made the troops very tired, and the risk of sending troops at this time is really great." ”

When Xue Yan heard this, he paused, he sighed, and then said, "General, is he still not willing to believe you?" I have been fighting with the general for more than five years, and I know best in my heart that the general is loyal to the king, and the king should actually listen to your opinion. ”

Eldest Sun Yi waved his hand and motioned for Xue Yan not to continue.

"The current situation is all in the hands of Ning Guo, the people of Anshang and Shang have been scattered, and now there is not much military strength left, and this battle is difficult to win. Moreover, even if the war is won, Anguo's military strength will be exhausted, and if the Shang State defects at that time, and Hua Guo sees the opportunity to join together, then Anguo will really be in danger. "Eldest Sun Yi's words are convincing.

"But General, if we want to withdraw our troops, it will not be easy. With Helian Yu here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to do it. Xue Yan frowned and said.

Changsun Yi was silent for a moment, suddenly raised his head, his eyes were like torches, and he said, "Yes, so, the first thing we have to find a way to solve is Helian Yu's point." ”

"The general means ......"

"Xue Yan, you immediately send a team of people around to Ning Jun to carefully investigate Helian Yu's current news, without further ado." Eldest Sun Yi said loudly.

Xue Yan clenched his fists and bowed, "Yes, General." ”

When the three kingdoms of Ning, An, and Shang were in turmoil, the only one who was not involved was Huaguo. According to Yu Ran's words, it is best for Hua Guo not to send troops this time, and Huajun Murong Qi seems to have acquiesced.

In the middle of the night, the lights in the palace of King Hua gradually went out a lot, but the Chentai Hall was still bright.

Chentai Hall is the new dormitory of Huajun to the four princes of Huaguo, so this is the dormitory of Rong Xi.

It's just that at this time, the atmosphere in the front hall of Chentai Hall is almost suffocating, and a feeling of tranquility and weirdness can't help but arise spontaneously. Rong Xi faced Murong Qi and his father without saying a word.

Rong Xi stood there, he was still dressed in white and clean, his black hair was not tied up behind him, he looked smooth as silk, and his exposed skin was as bright as snow. Looking at his face again, although he is sickly pale now, it is still difficult to hide that he is as warm as jade and as warm as the moon, and he is still very beautiful, so beautiful that men and women will be frightened.

Rong Xi gently twisted a scroll in his hand, he stood quietly in place for a while, looking at the person in front of him, and after a while, he suddenly laughed, he just nodded slightly towards the person, and said warmly: "Father." ”

The person who appeared in the Rong Xi Hall was the monarch of Hua, Murong Qi.

Murong Qi focused his gaze on Rong Xian's body, and he stared at Rong Xian, as if he wanted to see through something from Rong Xian's smile. It was only after a long time that Murong Qi suddenly smiled the same, a sharp color flashed in his eyes, and he spoke: "It seems that if it weren't for being personally sent to the carriage by Zhuan Xuan because of an injury and coma, you wouldn't be willing to come back?" ”

"Father, I won't." Rong Xi still smiled slightly. Rong Xian's body looked a little thin, and the autumn wind blew from outside the temple, blowing on his body, blowing his clothes and hair, and he seemed to be unaware of the wind, and still stood there calmly, without moving a single point under his feet.
