Standing in the courtyard, Liu Xi felt a little melancholy in addition to the loss, he and Ma Xiu met by accident, and then met in the covenant of the sons, both of them understood each other's identity, but never mentioned a word.

Don't ask about the past, treat each other sincerely, and unconsciously have an extraordinary friendship, just as Ma Xiu said when he first met that day, if he has a heart, he can trust his life.

Therefore, after Liu Xi was imprisoned, Ma Xiu, who was in a dilemma, made a plan to rob the prison in this life and the lord of Shurou County, running around, tired and thin.

Now, he's gone.

Alas......

With a deep sigh, the sudden night wind made people feel chilly, and when they looked up, the dark clouds covered the stars and closed the moon, and they couldn't see the tired birds in front of them.

"See you again, I don't know when."

Qu Lang could probably sense Liu Xi's loss, so he stood aside, without words, and when he heard this, his eyes were full of sadness.

Suddenly, a squeak came, and the little girl flew over, hugging Liu Xi's body and trembling continuously, "Childe, my brother is gone today......

The words were choked, and the tears were silent.

This is the second time Ma Xiu said goodbye, last year when the sons of the appointment, the little girl and Ma Xiu are just the first acquaintance, but because of his departure and often depressed, now they have been together for a long time, and they have already had feelings that cannot be abandoned, this is the sentimental Wu Shuang'er is naturally sad to the extreme.

Tears soaked the clothes on Liu Xi's chest, and in the other room in the small courtyard, Lin Yi sighed sadly under the oil lamp, and the scroll in his hand had not turned a page for several hours; Dawu sat at the head of the bed with a calm face, Xiao Wu, who was standing in front of the window, had no smile on his face, and a rare sad expression between his eyebrows; As for Tian Xun'er and Qin, who were extremely soft in their hearts, they still listened to Wu Shuang'er's cry and couldn't stop breaking the thread, and they poured down, and their jade hands wiped them with handkerchiefs, but they couldn't wrap up the tears.

Enduring the bitter taste in his heart, Liu Xi sent the crying tired Wu Shuang'er back to the room, put it on the bed, covered the quilt, and wiped the remaining tears on the little girl's face with his hands, and then quietly retreated.

Outside the house, the day seemed to be darker again, and Wu Gou, who had been said to be obscure before, could not see the slightest, as if a dark cloud had drifted silently, covering the blue and dark, and the cold wind was blowing and whining in the ears.

"It's going to be a change......

After a long time, Liu Xi said softly, walked slowly towards the room, picked up the oil lamp, sat in the flickering fire, slowly closed his eyes, and did not move.

Tanglin Palace, after the vermilion gate was opened, a cold wind immediately poured in, and the Dongling King, who was sick and weak, shrank into the jacket on his body again, "This day, I'm afraid it's going to change......"

"The prince is right, the saint has also explained to the old slave, don't let the prince catch the cold."

Saying that, Ma Sanping hurriedly took the white fox from the small place next to him and handed it forward, but the king of Tanglin shook his hand, "This white fox is the favorite thing of the emperor's brother, the monarch and the minister are different, and this king still can't exceed the etiquette." ”

As he spoke, he got into the carriage, and the driver was still the black-clothed coachman, and without command, he threw his horsewhip straight and drove towards the imperial city.

As the prince of Li Tang, naturally there was no need to get off the horse and unload the car in the royal street, and he traveled all the way, and soon arrived at the foot of the imperial city.

After getting out of the carriage, before the king of Tanglin could stand firmly, he heard a call behind him, and turned his head, but it was Ling Chengsheng, the secretary of Shangshu Province. In the distance, two carriages came galloping, although they did not often go out of the house, but the king of Tanglin could still recognize this as the official of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province.

"Lord Wang, Lord Cheng, but something important?"

Gu Bin of Zhongshu Province walked over quickly, and after bowing his hand, he asked out loud, behind him, Wang Meng's body was fat, so he was already slightly out of breath after a few steps, and he said with a white mist in his mouth, "Could it be that there is a change in the east?" ”

In the east, of course, the people present understood what they were referring to, in the past, there was the Wujiang River apart, the river was full of water, and the people of Liu Han were not good at water, and the court could live a stable life.

But in the harsh winter festival, even in Wujiang, there are times when the ice is as flat as the ground, at this time, that is, the most dangerous time, although the king of Zhenxi is guarding in Xinyang Town, but after all, things are always changing rapidly, and there will always be a place beyond the reach of the whip.

"Maybe something is wrong in the north, this year's winter is unusually cold, and I heard that a lot of cattle and sheep on the grassland have frozen to death."

Cheng Sheng said in a low voice, the severe cold in the north is more serious than that of Jialing City, and Yecheng, Xiapi and Yangqu have also suffered disasters, and the household department just sent the fold to him yesterday.

Stomping his feet, King Tanglin looked at Ma Sanping, who was full of anxiety but didn't dare to speak, and said to the other three, "A few adults, let's hurry into the palace, and you will understand when you see the saint." ”

"That's what the prince said."

In response, the three Zhongshu orders followed behind the King of Tanglin, and they did not dare to stop rushing towards the Linhua Palace.

Outside the hall gate, the four Dongling Kings stopped, and Ma Sanping walked a few more steps, sticking to the wooden door and whispering, "Holy Lord, the prince and the three adults are here." ”

"Fast forward."

In the hall, Tang Emperor Li Shan's voice was slightly urgent, and the king of Tanglin did not take Ma Sanping to open the door, strode forward, pushed open the wooden door, the cold wind rushed in, and the lights in the bronze lamp in the hall immediately danced indiscriminately.

"Brother Huang, but something big can happen?"

Entering the hall, King Tanglin asked straight to the point, Cheng Sheng and the others all looked at Emperor Tang, the three of them have been by Li Shan's side for a long time, and they are naturally familiar with the joy and anger hidden in his words and deeds.

At this moment, Li Shan's brows were furrowed, and his thin mouth skin was tightly pursed together, this appearance was obviously angry to the extreme.

There was no answer, Emperor Tang took out a piece of white silk cloth on the bookcase, and Ma Sanping, who was waiting next to him, hurriedly took it and handed it to King Tanglin.

On the white silk cloth, he was red and dazzling, with a slight fishy smell, and it turned out to be a blood book.

"The Huns want to come south."

It's just five words, but it makes the face of the king of Tanglin change greatly, and the three of them are so shocked that they almost dropped the silk cloth to the ground, and the hall suddenly became silent, only the roar of the wind outside the hall can be heard.

"This is from the scouts I sent to the Xiongnu, the army of the northern land has gathered, and there are signs of southward movement."

Tang Emperor Li Shan broke the silence with a word, and Cheng Sheng hurriedly said, "The minister also received an excerpt from the household department yesterday, the bitter cold in the north has become a disaster, and it needs to be transported for disaster relief." ”

"Even my northern land is short of food, so the Huns are naturally uncomfortable, and this time they are going south, I am afraid that a big reason is to grab food."

Gu Bin said, and Wang Meng suddenly exclaimed, "That's not a good thing, there is a disaster in my north, and the people are uncertain, if the Hun army attacks, it will be difficult to resist it......"

For a while, several ministers were worried and panicked, and the king of Tanglin couldn't stop coughing, and it took a long time to calm down, "Brother Huang, no matter what, this matter should not be ignored, and the disaster in the north should be quickly opened to release grain to appease the people." And the matter of the Huns must not be spread out, otherwise Liu Han will take advantage of this attack, and my Datang will fall into the predicament of being attacked by the enemy. ”

"The prince is right."

Cheng Sheng nodded and agreed.

"What the imperial brother said is indeed reasonable, the stakes are very high, and it is indeed unspeakable, but who is the right person to go?"

As soon as Emperor Tang's words came out, Cheng Sheng and the three of them immediately discussed, and said that several important members of the court and the central government came, but King Tanglin coughed lightly, "The younger brother thinks that there is one person who is feasible." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Liu Xi, the new champion."

Hearing this, Cheng Sheng immediately shook his head, "Think twice, this trip is not trivial, even though Liu Xi is talented, but after all, he is not as old as a weak crown, he has never governed one side, and he has never led troops to meet the enemy, how can he take on such a heavy responsibility?" ”

"What Lord Cheng said, it is precisely because of this that this king recommended him to go, and the matter of the Huns is not publicized, so sending him to this five-grade official will not attract the attention of others. Of course, the imperial court will not be idle, and it will be dispatched in advance, so it will be sent to the three cities of Xiapi, Yecheng and Yangqu. ”

After pondering for a while, Emperor Tang nodded, "I will speak according to the emperor's brother." ”
