That night, after returning to the house, Li Xin'er announced the news. The wives and concubines of the pen www.biquge.info were both surprised and happy. In fact, the eldest sister Huang Ying's attitude towards Wang Yuan is careful, and everyone can see it, and her words and deeds on weekdays are suspicious. Many people also suspect that Wang Yuan has already done something to Huang Ying, after all, he is a person who serves him closely. From Chang'an to Chengdu, Huang Ying followed all the way, and it is no longer an ordinary identity, it stands to reason that he is actually older than the qualifications of other women around Wang Yuan.

Everyone went to say hello to Huang Ying, but Huang Ying was so ashamed that he didn't dare to see anyone at all, so he hid in the house and didn't come out. The women who urged the narrowness did not relent, chattering and making fun of each other, making endless trouble.

In the front hall, Wang Yuan specially set up a banquet and invited Zhao Qing to stay and drink, Zhao Qing often accompanied Wang Yuan to drink, but he didn't feel unusual. It wasn't until a few cups of stomach that Wang Yuan mentioned that he wanted to marry Huang Xingxu to Zhao Qing, and Zhao Qing suddenly understood why when the handsome man came back from sweeping the tomb in the afternoon, everyone looked at him differently. Huang Xing hid far away from herself, occasionally looking at herself secretly from the car.

Of course, Zhao Qing is very willing, after his wife passed away, Zhao Qing followed Wang Yuan to run around endlessly, and he never thought about his own affairs, now Dashuai takes the initiative to care about his life, and wants to marry Huang San's sister, who is closest to Dashuai, to himself, of course Zhao Qing can't ask for it. Not to mention the relationship between Huang Xing and Wang Yuan, just take Huang Xing as an example, this eighteen-year-old girl is beautiful and has a lively and lovely temperament. I am nearly thirty years old, and it is a blessing to be able to take a yellow flower girl as a wife. And he married Huang Xing, so the relationship with Dashuai went further, I heard that Dashuai was going to accept Huang Ying as a concubine, so wouldn't he be a brother-in-law with Dashuai, this relationship is much iron.

As a general of the pro-guard army who has followed Wang Yuan for many years, Zhao Qing's connections around Wang Yuan are actually the weakest. Tan Ping, who is also a general of the Pro-Guard Army, is said to have had a relationship with Dashuai a few years ago. Tan Ping's parents died to save Dashuai, and Tan Ping's sister married Huang San, and these two layers of relationship can be seen. Not to mention Liu Jun, he is the righteous son of the handsome, and this relationship is also untouchable. Even if it is Liu Dehai, the relationship is more iron than himself, this Liu Dehai was born and died with Dashuai, Dashuai went to Fanyang when he was the envoy of Deposed Zhi, Liu Dehai protected Dashuai and the Xi people in several bloody battles, and his subordinates died seventy-seven eighty-eight, and this credit is not comparable to others.

And Zhao Qing met Wang Yuan back then, but he was casually sent by Xian Yu Zhongtong to protect Wang Yuan's entry into Shu and serve as the deputy envoy of Jiannan Jiedu. Later, he gradually walked into Wang Yuan's side and became his confidant, but there was almost no origin when it came to the origin. Fortunately, Wang Yuan is also fair, even after Tan Ping entered the pro-guard army, his official position has always been under him, so that he did not use his origin to get close, which is also where Zhao Qing admires and appreciates Wang Yuan. But all in all, being able to climb a relationship with Wang Yuan is tantamount to a great joy falling from the sky for Zhao Qing.

So Zhao Qing immediately knelt down to thank him, saying that he was one hundred and twenty percent willing to marry Huang Xing as his wife, and said that he would definitely be good to her, and he would definitely not disappoint the handsome. Of course, Wang Yuan was also very happy, and asked Zhao Qing to go back to prepare the dowry and invite a matchmaker to come together, and do it according to the custom of marriage. Zhao Qing agreed, and the two drank until the first shift, and Zhao Qing went happily.

After dinner, Wang Yuan lit candles in the study to read books, took a copy of "Taigong's Art of War" and read it carefully, and soon after reading it, he couldn't help but use books and inkstones on the desk as a study of the terrain and the deployment of troops and horses. When I was fascinated by it, suddenly the candle flame dimmed, and the candle on the candlestick went out, and the light suddenly dimmed.

Wang Yuan didn't care, he got closer and continued to read, he knew that someone would come to change the candles, and Wang Yuan would have a maid to serve him when he was studying in the study. The footsteps rustled, and someone came in and changed the candlestick, and after the candle flame was bright, he quietly walked out. Wang Yuan inadvertently glanced at the corner of his eye, and was suddenly stunned, he found that the little back that walked out was Huang Ying's back. Huang Ying quietly came in, changed the candle and left quietly, without disturbing Wang Yuan at all.

"Big sister? How are you? Isn't Xiaozhu'er here to serve? Wang Yuan said in surprise.

Huang Ying lowered her head and came over, her face feverish. After today's matter was clarified, Huang Ying saw Wang Yuan with an indescribable shyness.

"Oh...... I...... I happened to be passing by. Huang Ying said in a low voice.

Wang Yuan smiled: "It's such a coincidence, it's so late, how can you pass by the study?" Why don't you rest in the back house? Isn't there a little bead waiting for you here? ”

"Xiao Zhu'er is not feeling well, she went to tell me, I am afraid that you have something to serve, so ...... I'll take a look. I...... I'll boil a pot of boiling water to make you tea, and then I'll go to sleep. Huang Ying said busily.

Wang Yuan thought to himself, probably not that Xiao Zhu'er was unwell, but that Huang Ying asked Xiao Zhu'er to rest and come here to serve him. So he put down the book with a smile and beckoned to Huang Ying, "Come here." ”

Huang Ying lowered her head and walked over slowly, Wang Yuan reached out and held her little hand, which was not as soft as the hands of other wives and concubines, on the contrary, she did too much rough work such as laundry, cooking, serving tea and water, which made her hands rough. And it was cold, trembling slightly in Wang Yuan's hands.

"Why is it so cold?" Wang Yuan asked.

Huang Ying bowed his head and didn't answer, and Wang Yuan suddenly understood: "Have you been standing outside?" Otherwise, why are your hands so cold? ”

Huang Ying bowed her head and was silent. Wang Yuan felt grateful and compassion in his heart. He whispered: "Even if you want to come, you have to stay in the study, how cold it is outside now, it will be cold and sick." ”

"I'm afraid...... I'm afraid of disturbing your reading, and I'm afraid of ...... Jokes were seen. Huang Ying whispered like a mosquito.

Wang Yuan laughed and said: "You weren't afraid before, but now that I'm going to marry you, you're afraid." You little thing, come, let me warm you up. ”

Wang Yuan gently pressed his hand and pulled Huang Ying into his arms. Huang Ying couldn't stand on her feet and pounced on Wang Yuan, who reached out and hugged her body tightly. Huang Ying's body trembled so much, the first time he was in Wang Yuan's arms, it was like a dream, the arms of the Wang family brother were really warm, and he still smelled the good smell of his body in his nose. This breath is very familiar to me, every time I wash the clothes for the Wang family's brother, the clothes are full of this breath, and the smell is reassuring.

Wang Yuan put her hands on his chest and warmed her hands. Huang Ying's whole body shrank in Wang Yuan's arms, trembling like a leaf in the wind. Wang Yuan reached out and picked up Huang Ying's chin to look at her, their faces were less than a few inches apart, and their breaths smelled each other. Feeling the hot breath of Wang Yuan's breath blowing on his face, Huang Ying's heart almost stopped beating.

Wang Yuan looked at the delicate face of the girl in front of him, Huang Ying, who did not apply powder, had a natural and pure beauty, her eyebrows were curved like the moon, her nose was straight like a diamond, and her two thin lips were red like two rose petals. It turned out that Huang Ying was actually a very beautiful girl, but she had never looked at her carefully. The daughter who was born in a civilian family doesn't know how to dress up and swagger, and in the loneliness of no one paying attention, she quietly grows into a delicate flower.

Wang Yuan slowly leaned over, stretched out his mouth and kissed the two petal-like lips, the moment the lips touched, Huang Ying was so nervous that he almost stopped breathing, and the whole person was almost suffocated. Huang Ying was kissed for the first time, and she was clumsy and didn't know what to do. I didn't know whether to open or close a mouth, and Wang Yuan's mouth and tongue ached. Wang Yuan patiently and slowly guided Huang Ying gently, teaching her the method of honey kissing with lips and tongues. Famous teachers are apprentices, and soon after, Huang Ying finally mastered the essentials and gradually got better.

I don't know how long it took, and the lips parted. Wang Yuan laughed in a low voice: "Are you happy?" ”

Huang Ying was so ashamed that he didn't dare to raise his head, and buried his head in Wang Yuan's arms and gasped slightly. Wang Yuan asked again: "Is it still cold now?" ”

Huang Ying realized that her originally cold body was now hot and sweaty, and her hands, feet and body had become warm.

"This is the best way to keep warm in the world, and when you get cold in the future, you will come to me." Wang Yuan said shamelessly.

……

In the early morning of the next day, when Wang Yuan had just finished washing up and was about to prepare his horse to go to the political affairs hall, Li Mi hurriedly came to the palace in the morning light to ask to see Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan met him in the front hall. There was another person who came with him, it was a man in his forties, with a long face and a square mouth that looked similar to Li Mi, that was Li Mi's eldest son Li Zhenyuan. As soon as he saw Li Zhenyuan, Wang Yuan knew that there must be news of Li Mao.

"Marshal, Zhenyuan has just come back and found out where Li Mao is, so he doesn't dare to delay, so he has come to report. Zhenyuan, tell the marshal about the situation. ”

Li Zhenyuan was dusty, his face and clothes and armor were covered with dust, his expression was very tired, his lips were bloody, and his eyes were bloodshot. Obviously, I had just returned from a long journey, and I had suffered a lot on the way.

"Qiyu Marshal, the last general went all the way north, investigated Li Mao's traces, and arrived in Yuanzhou, and finally figured out Li Mao's movements......"

Wang Yuan was stunned, Yuanzhou is in the east of Longyou, close to the Qinling Mountains out of the mountain pass, Yuanzhou is more than 100 miles east of the range of Longyou Road, nearly 300 miles away from Chengdu. It turned out that Li Zhenyuan arrived in Yuanzhou in two days and two nights and ran back and forth. No wonder he looks so tired and embarrassed, running such a long distance in two days and two nights, I am afraid there is no time to rest.

"General Lee has worked hard. Did you follow Wonju? Li Mao has gone so far? Where did that go? Wang Yuan frowned.

"Yu Dashuai, Li Mao and the others went to the northeast and went to the north of the Qinling Mountains to exit the mountain pass. That road could only lead to the area west of the Shuofang River, so it can be concluded that he went to the area west of the Shuofang River. Li Zhenyuan said.

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What did he do when he went to Shuofang Hexi?" ”

Li Mi said in a deep voice: "The old man guesses that he should go to Li Guangbi and Guo Ziyi's army. As for what to do, the old man can't guess. Is it to oversee the army? It is unlikely that Li Mao will go to supervise the army, is it not a distrust of Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi. Is it to preach the message? Even if it is to convey His Majesty's will, it will not be enough for Li Mao to go in person. ”

Wang Yuan was silent. He didn't understand what Li Mao was doing here? But there is one point, Li Mao must have been ordered by Xuanzong to leave this trip, what must be a secret plan?

Li Mi suddenly pulled Wang Yuan to the side and whispered: "Handsome, the old man has a guess that shouldn't be said, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

Wang Yuan said: "That's right." ”

"Lao Yu thinks that His Majesty is worried that His Majesty will let Li Mao secretly leave Chengdu to go to Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's army...... Ahem...... I don't know what to say. In a word...... You should know what I mean. Li Mi covered her mouth and said in a low voice.

Wang Yuan instantly understood what Li Mi meant, what Li Mi meant was that Xuanzong felt that Chengdu was too dangerous, so he let Li Mao escape to Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's army in advance, so as to avoid chaos in Chengdu, and the Li family's royal family was completely eradicated and there was no successor. Let Li Mao go to Li Guangbi and Guo Ziyi's army, which is equivalent to leaving a seed, if there is chaos in Chengdu, there are still people who can hold high the banner of Li Tang, and there will not be no owner in the world.

Wang Yuan took a breath of cold air, if this was the case, it would mean that he had long lost the slightest trust in Xuanzong's heart. Xuanzong has completely regarded himself as his biggest threat, and the two are actually incompatible. However, Wang Yuan didn't think he had anything out of the ordinary, and Xuanzong's words and deeds didn't show it.

After a moment of thought, Wang Yuan denied this speculation. Xuanzong is not stupid, if he concludes that he will take action against him, and will only make a false deal with himself at this time, how can he make such a move to stimulate himself. Obviously, if Li Mao suddenly disappeared into Chengdu and did not return for a long time, it would expose Xuanzong's defense and suspicion of himself.

"Old General Li is too worried, Your Majesty can't think so. How did General Li think of that? Wang Yuan said with a smile.

Li Mi smiled and said, "I just said that, otherwise why would Your Majesty quietly order Li Mao to leave?" And he gave his night lion white to Li Mao to ride, maybe he was too old, but he always felt very strange. ”

Wang Yuan said lightly: "Whether this is really the case, it depends on whether Li Mao will come back, if Li Mao does not return to Chengdu, I am afraid that Your Majesty really has that mind." If so, it would be surprising. While we are working hard for the Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty is suspicious of us, seriously...... It's really helpless. ”

Li Mi hurriedly said: "The old decay is just a blind guess, maybe it's not the case." Maybe it's just Li Mao going to pass on a message or something, or maybe it's like the marshal taking His Royal Highness King Feng to the army to have a good experience, and it is unknown whether His Majesty hopes that Li Mao can also go to the army. But in any case, I always have to tell you, otherwise it will make everyone think cranky. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't think about it, this matter ends here." If Your Majesty wants to be suspicious of us, there is no way, and I will wait for a good conscience. The weather has become colder, the north wind has been strong in the past few days, I estimate that the first winter snow is coming, and the resettlement of the people needs to be accelerated. Yan Zhenqing: They are a little overwhelmed. General Li, you go to the camp and order 3,000 soldiers to maintain law and order, and you must take some coercive measures from today onwards, otherwise many people will die in the winter snow. ”

Li Mi promised in a deep voice and hurried away with Li Zhenyuan.

learned of Li Mao's whereabouts, Wang Yuan did not let go of his heart, but added to the blockage. Wang Yuan kept asking himself, is it worth it for Xuanzong and the Tang Dynasty to work for him and for him? No matter what Li Mao's purpose was when he left Chengdu, but obviously he was secretly doing something, Xuanzong didn't even confide in a word, which shows that he is already strict against himself. Wang Yuan didn't know what kind of counterattack he would suffer once the situation reversed, in short, once he was suspected and suspicious by Xuanzong, the end would be miserable.

However, Wang Yuan didn't have time to think about this. Yesterday there was a day's wind, and last night the wind was stronger. Wang Yuan slept in Princess Aluo's room last night, there were a lot of trees in Aluo's yard, and the whistling of the north wind at night made people feel even more cold.

When I woke up in the morning, the wind was still blowing. Although it was still a sunny day, Wang Yuan knew that once the wind stopped, it would snow. In previous years, there was a winter snow in October, but now in mid-October, this snow is coming. Listening to the whirring wind last night, Wang Yuan was worried about the people in the city who had not yet settled down. When he got up early in the morning and saw that Ah Luo had even put on his fur, Wang Yuan was even more worried. So he decided not to do anything today, and he must help Yan Zhenqing settle the people in the city, otherwise he will freeze to death many people if it snows heavily. Winter in Chengdu is no joke.

After Li Mi's father and son left, Wang Yuan immediately got on his horse and rushed to the political hall. When he arrived in the political affairs hall, he found that Yan Zhenqing and Wei Jiansu were not in the political affairs hall, and after asking, he learned that Wei Jiansu went to the Xicheng refugee camp, and Yan Zhenqing did not come to the political affairs hall at all. Wang Yuan was very puzzled, Yan Zhenqing came to the political hall very early every day, basically arrived at dawn, and after handling chores, he went to settle the refugees. I didn't come to the government hall today, I don't know why.

Wang Yuan didn't think much about it, and immediately rushed directly to the Beicheng refugee camp. Wei Jiansu went to Xicheng, so there was no one in Beicheng to settle down, and I don't know what the situation was.

A group of dozens of horsemen went straight to the north city. When I arrived at the inner street of Beicheng Square, I saw rows of simple shacks in front of me from a distance, and the Beicheng refugee camp occupied two blocks and a large area of Beicheng Square, where nearly 80,000 refugees lived. It is the largest of the six or seven refugee camps in Chengdu, and it is also the dirtiest.

Dismounted outside the camp, everyone followed Wang Yuan into the camp, but saw that the dilapidated grass huts were low and dark, closely connected one by one, and there were only a few feet in the middle to walk. There were coughs and cries of children in the shacks. The cold wind whistled through the corridors between the shacks, rolling up dead grass and dust, making it impossible to open your eyes. In the shacks, some refugees are nested in tattered bedding and look out with their heads exposed, their eyes helpless and sad, and their hearts are heavy when they look at them.

Walking to the depths, Wang Yuan suddenly heard a mournful cry, and unconsciously tightened in his heart, and hurriedly walked forward to see what was going on. When I got closer, I saw more than a dozen people surrounded by the door of a straw hut, whispering something. Seeing Wang Yuan and the others coming, the people all stepped aside, revealing a person sitting in front of the straw hut.

It was a thinly dressed woman, with a child in her arms, and she was weeping bitterly with her hair disheveled. Wang Yuan stepped forward slowly and looked at it carefully. The child, with his eyes closed, his lips bruised and straight, lay straight in the woman's arms, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. Wang Yuan slowly reached out to probe the child's snort, and found that the child was no longer breathless.

"Sister-in-law. What's wrong with this kid? Wang Yuan asked in a deep voice.

"Frozen to death...... The dog froze to death...... Dog's mother is sorry for you, mother is sorry for you. The woman cried.

Wang Yuan's heart tightened, what he was worried about still happened, the cold of last night had begun to freeze to death. The more you worry, the more bad things happen. The elderly, the weak, women and children were the first to fall victim to the cold.

"This official, save us, dozens of people froze to death last night, and if you don't save us, everyone will freeze to death." Seeing that Wang Yuan was dressed like a big official, the dozen or so people around all shouted one after another.

"Did dozens of people freeze to death?" Wang Yuan said with shock.

"Yes, dozens of dead people were carried out early in the morning, and the corpses were laid out in the open space of the porridge factory in front of them. The dog doesn't let people touch the puppy's body, and we're all here to persuade her. It's so cold, this grass hut can't stop the cold at all. Last night, a lot of grass huts were scraped down, and the soldiers who watched the battalion did not allow them to make fires to keep warm, and those outside froze to death. It's no wonder that they don't let the fire be lit, if there is a fire, everyone will die. Hey, how are we going to live, it's only October. The people cried.
