Beiming Xianglucheng

The lord of the country, Yutai Hongshi, returned to the national capital, and as he expected, the Western Vietnamese army raided Daxia, and the entire Daxia faced the crisis of fighting on two fronts. If it was according to the covenant, Great Xia could even come and borrow troops from him. But in this situation, the company did not intend to abide by the covenant. can make the national strength of Great Xia decay, which is not a good thing for Beiming.

During these days, Tangtai Mingyue looked extremely depressed, even if the prince's tassel had removed the grounded guards, Tangtai Mingyue still did not go to the court to participate in court politics. In addition to reading Duan Lang's letters to her every day, she writes poems and paintings to express her lovesickness.

Knowing that Duan Lang defeated 80,000 soldiers and horses in Xiyue with an army of less than 30,000, Tangtai Mingyue was also happy for Duan Lang. Mingyue ordered someone to bring a pot of wine, and she, who rarely touched the wine, looked at the portrait of Duan Lang's horizontal knife and drank it all. Tantai Mingyue even fantasized that one day she would be able to follow Duan Lang to conquer the world and walk on a song.

Standing on the pavilion, looking at the plum blossoms and snow in the garden, looking at the mountains and cypresses in the distance, the drunken and confused Mingyue raised his glass and said.

"The plum fragrance is proud of the independent frost, and the mountains are verdant and red.

The king stepped on the sky to conquer Wanyu, and the concubines followed each other to hold the sword to the end of the world.

Don't seek the prosperous stars in the next life, and get drunk with gold.

I hope that in this life, I will patrol the country and be drunk with you. ”

Yutai Mingyue was drunk, and she was drunk for the first time in her life. The noble princess who hugs in front of others can only hold hands in a drunken dream when she is lonely.

The lord of the country, Yutai Hongshi, did not comfort his beloved daughter, but rewarded the prince tassel. Xiyue fulfilled his promise and gave Bei Minh a windfall. But the good times did not last long, and on the border between Beiming and Moro, news of a fierce battle soon came.

War, sometimes brings not only wealth, but also a desire for hegemony. The Moro Kingdom originally wanted to temporarily reconcile with the Northern Ming Dynasty, and took the opportunity to invade Western Vietnam with a large army. Unexpectedly, among the five kingdoms in the world, Nanping took the lead in launching an attack on Great Xia. Immediately afterwards, Xiyue also participated. It is said that this kind of opportunity is a rare occurrence for the Moro Kingdom in a hundred years, but what makes the Moro Kingdom angry is that the Northern Ming Dynasty actually pressed in with a large army and put on a posture of war. In a fit of rage, the lord of Moro ordered the crown prince Wu Batu to lead a large army to fight against the Northern Ming. Without the containment of Western Vietnam, the Moro Kingdom gathered all its troops and prepared to swallow this door-to-door meal into its stomach.

For Beiming, Wu Batu was extremely resentful in his heart. Thinking of the humiliation of that day, Wu Batu hated to set foot in Xianglu City, and killed the Lantai clan with his own hands. Of course, he wants to stay with that Lantai Mingyue, and Wu Batu wants to let Duan Lang of Great Xia see that the current Lantai Mingyue is only worthy of being his slave.

The border was tightened, and the lord of the country, Yutai Hongshi, began to get nervous. Above the court, the civil and military officials had different opinions, and the prince's tassel had no corresponding strategy except poetry in his mind. The anxious Tantai Hongshi remembered his daughter Tantai Mingyue.

"Where's Mingyue? Why didn't she come to court? Hurry, Xuan Mingyue will come to the court to discuss matters. Yutai Hongshi hurriedly ordered.

Many courtiers in the court looked at it coldly, and said in their hearts that they remembered Princess Mingyue at this time, and it was not with your acquiescence that the prince tassel dared to put Mingyue under house arrest. Don't look at Mingyue as a woman and young, but what she has done for Beiming in the past few years has been recognized by everyone. In particular, the measures aimed at the border between the two countries were very much approved by the generals. If it weren't for her inability to inherit the great cause, she wouldn't have been able to take the tassel to the throne at all.

After a while, Tangtai Mingyue walked into the court, and her father summoned her to come, but Tangtai Mingyue's face was like a frost.

"Son, see Father." The bright moon of the platform bowed.

"Flat, Mingyue, why haven't you come to the court recently?" Yutai Hongshi asked with a little displeasure.

"Qi Qi father, the son is a woman, and he does not dare to interfere in politics."

Yutai Hongshi frowned, he knew that his daughter was angry with him. Yutai Hongshi said embarrassedly, "Mingyue, at the moment of war, you must not make a child lose his temper. Father asked you, the border is tight, what is your best plan? ”

Tantai Mingyue looked up at his father, Emperor Yutai Hongshi, and said mockingly, "Father, you can give half of the 20 million taels of Xiyue to Moro, maybe you can eliminate this war." Of course, if the Moro Kingdom has too much appetite, it will be difficult to say. ”

The old man Hongshi blushed and reprimanded angrily, "Nonsense, court affairs, how can it be child's play." ”

"Father, son-in-law is not joking. 20 million taels not only bought a war, but even bore the name of treachery. Father, do you think it's worth it? Yutai Mingyue looked at his father without fear.

"Are you blaming me?" Yutai Hongshi asked with a pale face.

The tassel also scolded angrily, "Mingyue, do you talk to your father like this?" Xiyue enshrined 20 million taels of silver, why can't you take it? Could it be that if you reject it, the Moro Kingdom will be reconciled with my Beiming Dynasty forever? ”

Yutai Mingyue snorted coldly, "Superficial! As the crown prince, he is responsible for the future of Beiming, but he pays attention to small profits and does not look at the overall situation. I hope that in the future, you will not live up to Beiming. ”

Yutai Tassel's eyes were cold, "What do you mean, do you want to pass on to you, a female streamer, to be satisfied." ”

Yutai Hongshi patted the royal case, "Shut up for me!" ”

Yutai Hongshi suppressed his anger and asked again, "Mingyue, there is no need to mention the past, my father asked you, is there a good plan for the border war~ ?" ”

Mingyue looked at her father, then at the expectant gazes of the ministers, and sighed secretly. She didn't want to participate in court politics anymore, and Tantai Mingyue had already decided to follow Duan Lang. But Beiming is her homeland after all, and no matter how good Tai Hongshi is, he is still her father.

"Father, there is no shortage of fierce generals in my Beiming, but what is lacking is a wise man. It is unwise for an army of 300,000 to guard the border and let people lead their noses. If you want to turn the situation around, then ~ ask the eldest brother to come out again. ”

As soon as Tai Mingyue's voice fell, not only was Tantai Hongshi a little stunned, but the ministers looked at Princess Mingyue in surprise. The eldest prince of Tantai Moli was a concubine, but a few years ago, he was angry for killing the concubines in the harem and was almost beheaded by Yutai Hongshi in a rage. For this reason, the military power and royal qualifications were reduced, and he was assigned to the border to guard the pasture. Tantai Mingyue suddenly brought it up now, and many courtiers were worried that it would anger the lord.

The crown prince tassel hurriedly said, "Father can't, Mo Li's assassination of the concubine is a capital crime, and the father is kind enough to spare his life, if it is reactivated, what face does the queen mother have in the harem." ”

Yutai Hongshi's fingers trembled slightly, and he forcibly suppressed his anger, "Mingyue, this is your good plan?" ”

Yutai Mingyue sighed, saying in her heart that the national disaster was at the head, and she actually had to save face for the harem. Everything in front of him couldn't help but make Tangtai Mingyue feel unusually cold.

"Father, other than that, the son has nothing to say."

"You can step down!" Yutai Hongshi said with a cold gaze.

Yutai Mingyue smiled dismally, and her eyes swept over the faces of the courtiers one by one. Seeing that many people showed kind and worried eyes, Tantai Mingyue bowed slightly. Under the gaze of everyone, Tantai Mingyue walked out with a hint of sadness.

As soon as he returned to Yuxue Garden, Yutai Mingyue immediately ordered someone to find Han Feng. When Han Feng learned that Mingyue was leaving Beiming, he was not surprised, he thought that it was the same as last time, it was nothing more than going to Daxia to take a turn and come back. But after listening to the specific arrangements of Tangtai Mingyue, Han Feng couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"Mingyue~You're here~ not planning to come back?"

"Master, Mingyue has already done what she should do, and she doesn't owe Beiming anything in this life." Tantai Mingyue said sadly.

"However, there is currently a war going on in Beiming, can you rest assured?"

"Victory is also providence, defeat is also providence, even if the bright moon can stop it for a while, it can't save a lifetime. Maybe Beiming will experience this difficulty, and his father and second brother will work hard. In their eyes, Mingyue is a daughter after all, and she will marry sooner or later. Mingyue can't control Beiming's fate, but I will never allow others to interfere with my own fate. Master, I have already decided. ”

Looking at the resolute and resolute expression of Tantai Mingyue, Han Feng did not persuade. But the departure of the princess is not a trivial matter, and they must arrange it. Otherwise, Yutai Hongshi would never let them leave Beiming.

A day later, the bright moon suddenly asked for a seven-day retreat and fasting to pray for the blessings of the soldiers at the border of the Northern Ming Dynasty. No one could refuse this excuse, and Yutai Hongshi was so busy that he couldn't take care of his daughter.

On the day of the official retreat of Mingyue in Taitai, Han Feng left Xianglu City with thirty attendants and protected a carriage.

On the way south, the bright moon of Tantai stroked the harrier eagle Xiaobai in the car. They have been traveling for more than ten days, and they are about to arrive at Yushan Pass. Since leaving Xianglu City, Yutai Mingyue has been in a low mood, and in the face of this homeland where she has lived for a long time, she is indeed a little difficult to let go. But a few days later, Mingyue's mood gradually calmed down. Father is right, she is going to marry after all, and if she can stay with her lover for a long time, maybe this is her best destination.

Yutai Mingyue was pondering in the car, and suddenly the car stopped. Yutai Mingyue was stunned, lifted the curtain and looked at it.

"Master, why did you stop?"

Han Feng pointed forward with the horsewhip in his hand, "Mingyue, we're in trouble." ”

Tantai Mingyue looked in the direction of her finger, and not far ahead, a column of soldiers and horses blocked the way. They set up a checkpoint in the middle of the avenue, and a general rode mightily on horseback.

"It's General Mengdu, it seems that my father already knows the news of my departure."

"Mingyue, you don't have to come out, there aren't many people on the other side, let's kill them." As long as he enters Yushan Pass, Mengdu will never dare to step in. Han Feng said coldly.

"Nope! You wait here, I'll go over for a moment. Tantai Mingyue said and got out of the car.

Han Feng wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, he still ordered the others to get ready, and he followed alone.

On the opposite side of Han Feng, Meng Du, the head of the Beiming camp, was on a horse, and when he saw Han Feng, he knew that Mingyue must be in the car. Two days ago, he had received a message from the national capital, and the lord of the country, Tai Hongshi, ordered that he must intercept Mingyue and ordered him to be escorted back to the capital immediately. And above the oracle of Tai Hongshi, there is a strong will. That is, in case of resistance, shoot and kill.

Han Feng accompanied Yutai Mingyue to the front of the soldiers and horses, Meng Du hesitated, jumped off the war horse, and said with his fists clenched.

"The last general~ see Princess Mingyue."

"General Mengdu, but my father asked you to intercept me?" The voice of the bright moon was not loud, but it carried a majesty.

"Yes, the last general received an order from the lord of the country, and he did not dare to resist the order. An hour ago, the scout spotted Mr. Han, and the last general knew that it must be the princess coming. ”

Tantai Mingyue looked at the soldiers and said calmly, "In my father's edict, can you escort me back to the capital?" ”

"Yes, but I will send the princess back to Xianglu City."

"If we force our way through the pass, what will happen to General Mondu?"

Meng Du looked at the bright moon of Tangtai and sighed slightly, "The lord of the country has an order, if you resist~ kill no matter what!" ”

Han Feng's heart was cold, and his right hand was placed on the hilt of the knife. There was a faint smile on Mingyue's calm face, but there were two crystal teardrops hanging in the smile.

Along the way, what she felt most guilty about was the love that her father and mother had given her over the years. Unexpectedly, the guilt of this family affection was broken by his father, Emperor Tai Hongshi, like fragile thin ice.
