Chapter 880: Scheming

In the early morning of the next day, one by one, the tiger masters walked into Xue Shao's tent with a look of surprise and shock on their faces.

The Turks, who really moved their camp and retreated.

They moved overnight, retreated ten miles, and are re-encamping.

Xue Shao sat on the handsome seat and quietly looked at the tiger generals.

The Tiger Master will be silent. The previous provocation and dissatisfaction were gone, and no one even looked up at Xue Shao.

They thought that it was time for Xue Shao to be majestic. He will use his roar to scold all of us to the blood. It is even possible that he will catch one or two people to make an example of the boss and make an example.

It was quiet in the tent. The sudden "uproar" sounded shocking to all the generals.

It turned out that Xue Shao spread out a thick parchment march map and slapped his palm on the map, "Arrived?" - Debate. ”

The generals were stunned: This is the end?

"Not yet?" Xue Shao's voice sank.

The generals suddenly came back to their senses, walked to the side of the big map, and held their breath one by one.

"The Turks retreated ten miles back and went down again. I have sent scouts to reconnoiter and learn that the terrain is slightly sloping, and the front of the camp is a smooth road with a wide view. Cavalry were prone to sudden gallop charges, which were very beneficial to them. On the east and west sides of their camp, there were glaciers and streams, which were conducive to the army to get water and drink horses. Xue Shao pointed to the map and said to the generals: "It can be seen from the new site of the camp chosen by the enemy that they have shifted from a fierce attack to an undefeated strategic defense, and they have obviously made preparations for a long-term confrontation and tug-of-war. ”

The generals listened quietly, nodding their heads occasionally, but no one interjected.

Xue Shao looked around at the demeanor of the generals and smiled slightly with satisfaction, "Where the enemy army is encamped, let's call it the Burial Soul Slope." ”

The military council was dissolved.

The tiger generals each walked out of the tent with a command arrow in their hands, and they all got on their horses and ran separately. The tasks assigned by Xue Shao's orders were not easy, so they were in a hurry, and they didn't care about complaining to each other in private.

Xue Shao stood at the door of the tent with his hands on his back and watched the generals leave, with a smile on his face.

"Very good, I'm satisfied with your current attitude!"

After lunch, after taking care of some military affairs, Xue Shao came to find Xuan Yunzi alone.

Xuan Yunzi smiled when he saw him, "The young marshal is here, and he wants to give a gift?" ”

Xue Shao smiled and raised the small package in his hand, "If you get delicious food, you don't dare to be greedy." It was specially used to share with the fairy girl. ”

Xuan Yunzi was suddenly curious, "The young marshal is so gracious, I really need to eat more." ”

Xue Shao laughed, then let out a long breath, put the package on the table, and opened it.

Sure enough, it is the caramel from the south of the Yangtze River, the fruits from the Western Regions, the roast lamb with oil flowers, and a beautifully carved wine jug.

"It's like a feast. Are there any generals in the army who are married? Xuan Yunzi asked.

Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "Yuan Zhen gave it to me." ”

Xuan Yunzi couldn't help but be stunned and slightly stunned.

At this moment, Xue Shao thought of the moon slave strangely in his heart. It seems that except for Princess Taiping and Linlin, Yuenu gets along very well with everyone around her. The love of women is not separated from each other, and the love of men is not drunk after a thousand cups of brothers. Okay, that guy who is a hero from all walks of life in Guangzhou and is more straightforward, must not have forgotten to tell Xuanyunzi about me and Ai Yan!

Now Xuan Yunzi's expression has confirmed Xue Shao's conjecture in his heart.

"Yuanzhen...... "Xuanyunzi's mouth was slightly swallowed, "It's deliberately messing with your mind." ”

Xue Shao smiled, "How can you see it?" ”

"Knowingly ask!"

Xue Shao was still laughing, "I returned it to him, and he gave me such a gift." It's kind of interesting. ”

"The two armies fought wits and courage against the enemy, and the war was done to the extreme. The wisdom, adaptability, and mood of the commanders of the two armies are also a competition. Xuan Yunzi said, "You put Du Xilu back so that he could pass on the inside story of the Yinchuan War to Yuanzhen." At the same time, the huge panic left by that battle will also be transmitted to Yuanzhen. Wonjin definitely doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the same mistakes. With his resourceful and cautious nature, the Turkic retreat was almost inevitable. ”

"Quack", Xue Shao applauded, "Well said, continue." ”

"Talkative women are disgusted, I won't say it." Xuan Yunzi shook his head.

Xue Shao smiled, "I don't hate it, you go on." ”

"No." Xuan Yunzi was also stubborn, "You have already expressed it more than once, you hate women who pretend to be smart and have many tongues and love to be capable." ”

"Yo, are you insinuating?" Xue Shao smiled, "Or are you here, deliberately pulling hatred?" ”

- Alluding to Empress Dowager Wu?

Xuan Yunzi's expression of "speechless and happy" kept blinking, as if he was pondering the metaphor of the new word "pulling hatred".

"Forget it, don't talk about it." Xue Shao pointed to the pile of food, "Do you want to taste a little?" ”

"I heard that the woman who was poisoned was covered in black and had a swollen face, protruding eyes, and bleeding from seven orifices. So, I don't eat. Xuan Yunzi said.

Xue Shao's hand had just reached out to the roast leg of lamb, and suddenly stopped, "Hearing you say that, I have lost my appetite!" ”

"Aren't you afraid of Yuan Zhen's poisoning?" Xuan Yunzi asked.

Xue Shao shook his head, "He must have imagined ten thousand ways to kill me. However, poisoning this packet of food is the least likely. ”

"That's right." Xuan Yunzi said, "The two sides are very well guarded in battle, and Yuan Zhen will not be stupid enough to use such an unruly little trick to assassinate. ”

"Yes." Xue Shao snorted, "He won't want to poison me." But he's really disgusting me! ”

Xuan Yunzi was slightly stunned, and then laughed, "Did he succeed?" ”

"Like, a little bit." Xue Shao pouted.

"It seems that you still have a little bit of it, you care!" Xuan Yunzi said with a smile.

Xue Shao turned his head to look at Xuan Yunzi, grinning and frowning, with a rare and strange expression, and said angrily: "Stop being cynical, okay?" ”

Xuan Yunzi now understands why Xue Shao came to her.

The coach is also a human being, and if he is a human being, he has joys, sorrows, and sorrows. Young Marshal Xue was disgusted by Yuan Zhen, but this "private" emotion could not be vented to anyone else in the army.

Therefore, I can only find her Xuanyunzi.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yunzi hurriedly smiled and apologized, "I apologize." ”

"It doesn't have to be." Xue Shao breathed a sigh of relief.

"You know that Yuanzhen is going to be disgusting, and he is here to deliberately mess with your mind. Why do you have to fall for it? Xuan Yunzi asked.

"Maybe that's what makes him smart!" Xue Shao smiled slightly bitterly.

"Maybe......" Xuan Yunzi nodded lightly, "People's emotions are not always under their control. Otherwise, where would there be so many disputes and misfortunes in the world? ”

"Well, that makes sense." Xue Shao smiled, "Hearing you say this, I feel much more comfortable." I thought I was really a waste wood basket who didn't care about life and death because of my children's affection! ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled suddenly, "If you are really such a person, you should be in the Divine Capital now, and enjoy the gentleness and richness." ”

"But I have to admit that now, I have a little more thought in my heart. There is also an extra layer of scruples. Xue Shao frowned slightly, and his expression was slightly more serious.

"Is it because ......" Xuan Yunzi asked cautiously and tentatively, "Do you still love her?" ”

Xue Shao was slightly stunned. When such words came out of Xuan Yunzi's mouth, it always felt strange to taste. However, she asked the most central question.

I pondered for a long time.

Xue Shao shook his head gently, "I don't even remember if I really loved her." ”

Xuan Yunzi couldn't help but be a little stunned, "Then you still ......"

"Indebted." Xue Shao let out a long sigh, "It's because of debt!" ”

"As far as I know, you don't owe her anything." Xuan Yunzi said, "It's some of her actions...... I don't agree more! ”

"You mean, what happened on the day of my wedding to Princess Taiping?"

Xuan Yunzi nodded slightly.

Xue Shao shook his head and smiled slightly wryly, "To this day, I still don't know why she did that. All I knew was that she wasn't trying to hurt me. ”

"I'm a woman too. I don't understand. Xuan Yunzi asked puzzledly, "When a woman doesn't care about chastity and fame anymore, and throws herself into your arms when you can't resist, how can you owe her anything?" ”

"......" Xue Shao was silent for a moment, and muttered: "There is one thing that even the moon slave knows very little. ”

"What?"

"When she left, she was pregnant with my child." Xue Shao took a deep breath and exhaled a long breath, "Later, I was born." ”

Xuan Yunzi was stunned and shocked.

"You may have heard of it. Son of the Turkic gods, Ashina 61 Krakus...... Actually, it's my Xue Shao's son! ”

Xuan Yunzi's expression froze completely.

Xue Shao smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly, "Count it out, it's still the eldest son." ”

"Then it's no wonder...... "Xuanyunzi let out a long breath, "I really don't know about this matter." ”

"You're the second one to know besides me." Xue Shao said, "Of course, Yuanzhen must know. The tricks of the so-called Son of God must have been carried out by him. ”

"Why would he do that?" Xuan Yunzi asked puzzledly, "Since you know that the child is yours, with the usual style of people like Yuanzhen, it seems inevitable to kill him." It's not surprising that even his mother was killed along with him. ”

"You're right. Once, I was also confused. It was only after getting to know the internal situation of the Turkic Khanate that I figured it out. Xue Shao said, "In our Datang, it is very important to be born in a family. In the steppe, tribal surnames are even more important. Ashina Aiyan is the only surviving lineage of the Ashina Khan clan. In her own right, she is a major political capital. ”

"I know." Xuan Yunzi said, "Several steppe rebellions and the current rise of the Turkic Khanate, they all played the banner of the Ashina clan. ”

"In Turkic traditions, the Ashina clan has always intermarried with the Ashid clan." Xue Shao said, "The grassland people regard the Ashina clan as a royal family, and the Ashid clan as a descendant. ”

"The king and the queen ......" Xuan Yunzi nodded suddenly in realization, "And Yuanzhen, the surname is Ashide!" ”

"Yes." Xue Shao said, "In the current Turkic Khanate, the power of the three brothers, Gu Lulu, Du Xi Lu and Mo Si, is undoubtedly the most powerful and unshakable. And Yuan Zhen, although he is trusted and reused by Gu Lulu and holds great power in an important position, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, and there must be many people who are jealous of him, and there must be more people who want to replace him. With Yuanzhen's foresight, he will definitely not put his future and safety at risk, just based on his personal feelings with Gu Lu. ”

"That's right." Xuan Yunzi said, "Only a fool would take the king's feelings and trust too seriously. ”

Xue Shao looked at Xuan Yunzi with a slight startle, "Are you insinuating again?" ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled bitterly, "I didn't-say Yuanzhen, Yuanzhen!" ”

It can be seen that Yuan Zhen must really want to marry Ai Yan, so as to achieve the marriage between Ashid and Ashina. This will be an intangible huge political capital for Yuanzhen. Xue Shao said, "Since you have set such a goal, Yuan Zhen will definitely try her best to protect Ai Yan and win Ai Yan." As for the love of children and so on, it is secondary. ”

Xuan Yunzi took a deep breath and nodded slightly, "But Ai Yan is pregnant again, and this matter must be explained to the people of the grassland, otherwise it will be difficult for Ai Yan to gain a foothold on the grassland." So Yuan Zhen concocted a 'son of God', and through various means, he continued to expand the influence of the son of God on the grassland. I have heard that when General Xue Rengui was still guarding Yunzhou, the Son of God appeared in front of the two armies? ”

"Yes." Xue Shao nodded, feeling an inexplicable tingling pain in his heart.

"One day, when Ai Yan really marries Yuan Zhen, all the benefits brought by the son of God will naturally fall on his own head!" Xuan Yunzi shook his head again and again, "Yuan Zhen, this person, the scheming city government, is terrifying!" ”
