The news of the recovery of Yinzhou soon spread to Beijing, and became a hot topic of discussion among the people in the streets and alleys, and it made Emperor Liang Long Yan Dayue change the state of neglect in the past.

On this day, Emperor Liang had lunch with Concubine Jingjia in Zhanghan Palace, and the maid served a plate of braised pork with fresh ginger, and the whole shape of the dish was just like a mountain. Emperor Liang was very happy when he saw it, and said: "This dish has the meaning of 'dominating the country', I like it very much!" ”

Concubine Jingjia replied with a smile: "As long as the emperor likes it, the concubine's cook is ready to listen to the emperor's orders." ”

"Concubine Ai really has a heart, reward, you must reward!"

"Then the concubine thanked the emperor first!"

"This Yinzhou has been recovered, and a piece of my heart disease is also gone, and this battle can be won, but thanks to Qi'er. I have read the military documents, and the Xuanjia Army has really made great contributions, and when they return to the court, I will be rewarded! Speaking of happiness, Emperor Liang picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of ginger into his mouth and chewed it slowly. But he didn't notice that Concubine Jing Jia's face quietly changed.

"I'm full, I have to go back to Chongwen Pavilion to continue reading the chapter."

"Okay, the concubine sends the emperor."

"Concubine, I have neglected you for a few days......"

"The emperor pretends to be the affairs of the world, and the concubines understand, fortunately, Sheng'er can enter the palace to talk to the concubines."

"Well, let Yun Sheng enter the palace more, with him with you, I can rest assured."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Looking at Emperor Liang's distant figure, Concubine Jingjia immediately took off her docile mask, turned her head and said to the maid beside her: "Go and invite King Xiang into the palace immediately!" ”

"Oh? General Fan will also have times when he misses, didn't he plan it before, how did he get to this ending? Qi Diaole was half-lying on the eagle seat, playing with the jade wrench on his fingers, and looking at Fan Yu kneeling in front of him with a pleasant expression, as if the Yinzhou he had just lost was not a big deal.

But for Fan Xi, it is completely different, if he loses Yinzhou, he is the first responsibility, at this moment his forehead is already oozing sweat, in the face of this moody master, he is very worried, afraid, and no longer so arrogant on the battlefield. Standing like Fan Xi is also Wei Chizong, he is a lot easier, as one of the six department masters, he was originally ordered by the prince to assist Fan Xi, and he also tried his best in the battle of Yinzhou, and he also lost a lot of troops, not to mention that the order to retreat was still under Fan Xi.

"Originally, my ambush plan was not only to greatly damage the vitality of the Xuanjia Army, but also to capture the commander, but ....... But just when he was about to succeed, a team suddenly appeared, opened the city gate, and let Yang Zhong's army enter Yinzhou City, leaving our army to suffer from the enemy! And then...... As soon as the head of Wei Chi's department withdrew, his subordinates lost a strong arm, and they no longer fell in love with war. Fan Xiao kept his head down and replied.

"General Fan is not a general's demeanor when he throws the pot to me!" Of course, Wei Chizong could not sit idly by and bear the responsibility for the loss of Yinzhou.

"So the general still doesn't understand who the team that suddenly appeared is?"

"Back to the Khan King, when the scouts report that the team is the private armed forces of the Bai family of Annan!"

"The Bai family of Annan was the largest medicine merchant in the Liang Dynasty, and their business spread all over the country and they also had trade with me in the Tang Dynasty." Zhuo Lingyi, who had been standing aside, spoke, and her opening immediately attracted Qi Diao Lezheng's attention, but he saw Zhuo Lingyi's plump breasts. "I just didn't think that a small private armed force could have such an impact on the war?"

"Since Master Zhuo said that he was the largest medicine merchant in the Liang Dynasty, it would not be difficult to have a private armed force with considerable combat effectiveness." Fan Yu grasped any reason that could alleviate the responsibility.

Zhuo Lingyi disdained it, and instead admonished: "King Khan, now that we have lost Yinzhou, the Liang Dynasty should not make any more moves for the time being, and it is time to guard against Xiliang." ”

"Hmph, where will Emperor Liang's mediocre old man have the courage to challenge again, you are right, Xiliang is also a hidden worry, the national strength has been growing over the years, and Luo Lerong has killed his father and brother to usurp the throne, and he has also set up a killer organization, and his ambitions are not small!" Qi Diaole regarded Xiliang as his opponent, but he was a little contemptuous of Liang Chao. "Lingyi, Xiliang, you have to keep an eye on it!"

"King Khan rest assured".

"As for your ......" Qi Diaole looked at Fan Yu with interest and said, "King Ben Khan will give you a chance to atone for your sins!" ”

It has been many days since the Yinzhou reconquest, Bai Luoyao stood on the Yinxiang Pavilion, looking into the distance with her eyes wandering, she was originally the eldest lady of the Bai family who was decisive and resolute, but now she was always restless.

"You like that kid?" I don't know when, Bai Yuting stood behind Bai Luoyao, and a sudden question made Bai Luoyao a little speechless.

Bai Yuting gently grabbed his daughter's shoulder with one hand, "Dad watched you grow up, although it is difficult to guess the thoughts of your daughter's family, but after all, she is her own daughter, and Dad still understands your thoughts." You like that kid named Xuan Shaoning, right? ”

Although Bai Luoyao is very prestigious in charge of the family, he still can't avoid the little woman's shyness at this time, so he just nodded slightly.

"The girl has a good eye, that kid is indeed a talent, brave and strategic, and can be regarded as our future general!" Hearing his father praise Xuan Shaoning so much, Bai Luoyao seemed to empathize, and he was very happy, but it didn't take long for him to be happy, and Bai Yuting changed his words: "But this person is bent on making meritorious contributions, I'm afraid that he won't be a child, daughter, you better stop here." ”

Bai Luoyao's face turned red, she didn't expect her father to use a trick to suppress first and then promote, and he said it so clearly! She didn't know what to do, so she looked at her father with wide eyes in surprise.

"Maybe it's hard for you to understand your father's words at this time, you've been in business for your father for so many years, and you've seen a lot of people, and you think your eyesight is okay, but your father just doesn't want you to be hurt." Bai Yuting treats his daughter with infinite tenderness.

"But ......" Bai Luoyao just wanted to refute, when he saw a domestic servant running over, "Master, miss, His Royal Highness King Yu has arrived!" ”

"Okay, the main hall is invited!"

Bai Yuting was about to raise his legs and leave, but suddenly stopped and looked back at Bai Luoyao and said, "Think about it, don't let yourself regret it." ”

Bai Luoyao didn't understand what his father meant for a while, Bai Yuting had already walked towards the main hall.

The battle of Yinzhou relied on the help of the Bai family, and many wounded were healed, although the king of Yu was in the royal family, but he never trusted his identity, but was very friendly and grateful.

"His Royal Highness King Yu! Bai Yuting see His Royal Highness King Yu! As soon as Bai Yuting stepped into the main hall, he didn't hurry to salute.

"Sect Master Bai is polite, hurry up and get up!" King Yu smiled and stretched out his hand to support Bai Yuting, "We can be regarded as fighting side by side, besides, you are the master and I am the guest, so these false gifts can be avoided." ”

Bai Yuting was not informal, and got up heartily to lead King Yu to sit down, "It's rare that His Royal Highness is so friendly, then give Bai a thin face, please take a seat, don't shirk." ”

King Yu was not polite, and simply sat down. "Come on, serve tea!" As soon as Bai Yuting saw King Yu sitting down, he immediately ordered his subordinates to arrive.

"I came this time to thank the Bai family for not only sending troops to rescue me, but also to heal my Xuanjia Army soldiers."

"Your Highness is polite, Yinzhou is my Daliang land, I have thought that Yinzhou has fallen into the hands of others for many years, Bai has also seen a lot of people in the Tang Dynasty oppressing my people, and now His Royal Highness can lead the troops to recover the country, what Bai has done is really insignificant compared to His Highness."

"Sect Master Bai really understands the righteousness, no wonder the business can be so big."

"Your Highness has praised it!"

At this time, a servant brought two bowls of teacups, respectively placed in front of the table of King Yu and Bai Yuting, the refreshing fragrance of the celadon white jade tea bowl slowly diffused in the main hall, King Yu was attracted by this unique tea fragrance, couldn't help but close his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"This tea is from my Bai family's tea garden, I named it Yunwu Qingbai, it is not a famous tea, but the aroma is overflowing, the taste is elegant, Your Highness may wish to taste it."

King Yu raised the teacup, took a small sip, and immediately felt a sweetness surging in his throat, and at the same time, the fragrance began to permeate the internal organs. "Sect Master Bai is really too modest, this tea can be ranked among the top ten famous teas in my Great Liang."

"Haha, it's really not what Bai wants, I just hope that someone who understands can taste tea with Bai, and Bai will be satisfied."

"If everyone in the world is like Sect Master Bai, then the world will be peaceful."

"The world asks for different things, how can they come reluctantly. Just like His Royal Highness's subordinates, Bai wanted them to stay for a few more days, but as soon as he heard that His Highness had come down, he wanted to leave with His Highness regardless of it! ”

"Then it seems that I am the only one who will persuade myself."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

In Wenmo Palace, Luo Lerong gently put down the military text in his hand, stretched his waist very comfortably, and said to a person standing under the hall with a relaxed face: "Xia Tang has been handed over to him, not to mention expanding the territory, I am afraid it will not be easy to hold the existing territory, hum!" Then Basilon laughed disdainfully.

The person in the hall was still dressed in a gray robe, but this time he did not cover his face, when he heard the words of Luo Lerong, he slowly raised his head, and the light from behind made his face not so clear through the contrast between strength and weakness, and he could vaguely distinguish that this was a vicissitudes of life, a scar from the corner of the left eye across the entire face to the right cheek, if there was no scar, this man could be regarded as handsome, and it could be seen that his facial features were a little different from that of Luo Lerong, with obvious characteristics of the Central Plains.

"This time, the Liang Dynasty has been able to exalt its prestige once, and after recovering Yinzhou, Emperor Liang should rest." His voice and face matched very well, low and hoarse, and his tone was full of contempt for the Liang Dynasty.

Then Luo Lerong was still in that lazy posture, and looked at the people in the hall with a sly smile, "Song Mi has died at your hands, which can be regarded as a little comfort, right?" I understand your hatred for the Liang Dynasty, but even if you want to destroy the country, you can't do it overnight, right, you Central Plains people say so, General Huangfu? ”

The person under the hall was none other than Huangfu You, the leader of the reverse scales, he raised his face even higher, and said in a louder voice: "In just one year, the Liang Dynasty not only uprooted our Cloud Village, but also recovered Yinzhou, with the presence of King Yu and the Xuanjia Army, they are definitely our fierce enemies, not to mention the support of Qingshan Academy behind them. Your Majesty, I do have an idea. ”

What Huangfu You said was very clear to Luo Lerong, and during this period of time, he had also watched the Liang Dynasty win successive battles, and at this time, he was aroused by Huangfu You's interest. "If you have any ideas, General Huangfu will say it directly!"

"If you want to destroy the Liang Dynasty, you must first remove the Xuanjia!" Huangfu You's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and the corners of his eyes were upturned, and he was indescribably vicious. "Since we and the Lower Tang Dynasty have both suffered defeats at the hands of the Liang Dynasty, it is better to ally with the Lower Tang Dynasty, and all the spies we planted in the Liang Dynasty before will be used to annihilate the Xuanjia in one battle!"

Luo Lerong was obviously rendered by the momentum of Huangfu You, and couldn't help but leave the throne and stood up directly, "It sounds a little reasonable, so how to implement it?" ”

"Your Majesty, you might as well listen to me." Huangfu Yu lowered his head at this time and once again concealed himself behind the light.

According to the laws of the Great Liang, half a month after the end of the war, the commander needed to return to Beijing to resume his life, and when the deadline came, King Yu and Yang Zhong respectively reorganized their armies, and the security of Yinzhou City was temporarily handed over to Chen Jiale, the assassin of Annan.

Before leaving the Bai family, Shi Gong Zhengyuan pulled Xuan Shaoning to a secluded place and said very seriously: "Luo Yao is a rare good girl, don't hurt her." ”

Xuan Shaoning looked at Shi Gong Zhengyuan with wide eyes in surprise, he never thought that these thoughts had been seen through by him!

"Don't be so surprised, as soon as you look at the restrained behavior when you and Luo Yao meet, you know that there is a problem between the two of you. I'm not Duan Lang! ”

"I'm just....... Didn't think about ........"

"Nothing is easy to face in life. Leaving this time, and I don't know when I can see you again, why don't you go and say goodbye? ”

In fact, Xuan Shaoning also had an idea about this matter, and he should go because of reason, but he was still afraid that he would be at a loss when facing Bai Luoyao, he knew that she had a good impression of him, but ...... In a place in his heart, there was the figure of the woman in the yellow shirt, and the amulet she gave was still hidden deep in her chest. However, she is just a centurion from a humble background, and she is Emperor Liang's favorite princess Yunxuan, and the gap between them is simply the difference between cloud and mud, which can be said to be completely impossible; And although Bai Luoyao is said to be the daughter of the Bai family who is rich and rivals the country, she has a friendship with classmates after all. Xuan Shaoning, what do you think?!

Shi Gong Zhengyuan looked at Xuan Shaoning with a sad face and asked, "What's wrong?" Is it so difficult to say goodbye? ”

"I ......." Xuan Shaoning was interrupted by a shout before he could say anything.

"Zhengyuan, Shaoning! It's time for us to go! Duan Lang ran over with a big grin, "It's really hard for me to find you hiding in such a place." ”

"We're just walking around."

"Then let's go, King Yu will be pulled out tomorrow, and today we have to say goodbye to Uncle Bai."

Shi Gong Zhengyuan glanced at Xuan Shaoning and said, "Duan Lang is right, let's go together." ”

When Shi Gong Zhengyuan, Xuan Shaoning and Duan Lang came to the main hall of the Bai family's mansion, Bai Yuting was already waiting, and standing next to him was Bai Luoyao, the daughter of the Bai family.

"For many days, I've been bothered, and Uncle Bai has been entertained more." Shi Gong Zhengyuan bowed deeply, and the other three also bowed.

Bai Yuting smiled and raised his hand to help, and said: "A few can be regarded as young talents, they are not only the future visible generals in the Xuanjia Army, but also the classmates of the little girl Luo Yao, the old man should do his best." ”

"Uncle Bai, the general has decided to return to Beijing tomorrow with the whole army, so we must leave today, and we are here to say goodbye." Duan Lang explained.

Bai Luoyao's originally smiling face changed slightly after seeing Xuan Shaoning standing at the end, and although this change was extremely subtle, it was seen by Bai Yuting and Shi Gong Zhengyuan at the same time.

"It's time to go, Luo Yao might as well come with us for a while, so let's talk more." Shi Gong Zhengyuan wanted to avoid Bai Yuting, and then find an opportunity to let Xuan Shaoning and Bai Luoyao talk alone.

"Yes, Luo Yao will send it, and I will be with you for my father." I didn't expect Bai Yuting to come to such a move, which was really beyond Shi Gong Zhengyuan's expectations.

On the road from the main hall of the Bai family to the foot of the mountain, Shi Gong Zhengyuan did not say a word, Xuan Shaoning, Bai Luoyao and Bai Yuting had their own thoughts, and only Duan Lang was singing a one-man show.

"Uncle Bai, Luo Yao, just send it here, say goodbye today, and I don't know when I can see you again." Duan Lang didn't have the complicated thoughts of others, and his words made Bai Yuting stop.

Bai Luoyao said: "We are all still young, there will be a reunion day", although she said to everyone, but the corner of her eyes was peeking at Xuan Shaoning, but Xuan Shaoning turned his head to look at the market at the foot of the mountain. Bai Luoyao was slightly disappointed and withdrew his eyes.

Shi Gong Zhengyuan watched coldly, and also felt that Xuan Shaoning was rude, so he bumped him on the shoulder, completely ignoring Xuan Shaoning's surprised gaze, and said with a smile: "If you don't die in a catastrophe, there will be a blessing in the future, we thank Uncle Bai and Luo Yao again for their careful care, and he will definitely repay if he has the opportunity in the future!" ”

Bai Yuting said kindly and solemnly: "Going into battle to kill the enemy and defend the country is the best reward for my Bai family." ”

"Yes, Uncle Bai is very right!" Shi Gong Zhengyuan turned his head to Bai Luoyao and said, "Since you are still young, you don't need to worry. As soon as these words came out, Bai Luoyao was immediately a little surprised, and Shi Gong Zhengyuan continued: "Maybe you can get the answer on the reunion day, am I right, Shaoning?" ”

When everyone looked at him, Xuan Shaoning had an indescribable uneasiness, even compared to the battlefield, "Yes...... yes," he said with a slight stammer.

"Okay, you have to say goodbye to you for a thousand miles, Uncle Bai, Luo Yao, take care!" The group left without looking back, and Bai Luoyao stood in place and watched their figures disappear completely.

"Love always makes people lose themselves, Luo Yao, don't forget your identity, the Bai family still needs you to support it. The ancestral training of the Bai family has never been allowed to intervene in party disputes! Bai Yuting turned around and left, leaving Bai Luoyao alone in the wind, although there was some heartache and reluctance, but after all, she was Bai Luoyao, the eldest daughter of the Bai family, tightened her collar, and also turned around and did not look back.
