For Emperor Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty, the recent days have been really difficult enough. Nothing went his way, and he was irritable about everything, which made him almost like a mad beast, with his fangs open, ready to devour at any moment.

First, after Xiao Yu'er was robbed, Zhu Houzhao tried his best to restrain his anger and ordered Yang Tinghe to sit in the military department and take full responsibility for this matter. At the beginning, Yang Shen said that his Qianhu Xu Qian was rash and fell into an ambush by the thief army, and he had beheaded him for questioning, and at the same time begged Zhu Houzhao to give him a little more time, because he had thought of a very careful strategy to control the enemy, and it was currently in full swing to implement it, according to his prediction, as long as his method worked, he would keep the thief army and surrender without a fight within a month.

At that time, Zhu Houzhao saw Yang Shen say this, thinking that this person was a great talent, how to say that he was also a smart person, and he would not fire guns indiscriminately, so since he said so, it should probably be feasible, so he approved his request.

As a result, I didn't expect that it was less than a month, but half a month later, the news of the defeat of Ulju came one after another.

800 miles of urgent secret report from the inner factory: The battle of the former army in Ulzhou was unfavorable, General Zhang Rui led 5,000 troops deep into the enemy's rear to ambush, was discovered by the enemy, lured into the gourd valley to besiege and kill, and now the whole army has been wiped out!

Xichang 800 miles urgent secret report: Ulzhou front army suffered a major defeat, after Zhang Rui was besieged, Wei Ying led the Shenji battalion to the rescue, but the thief army encircled the point to send reinforcements, and now it has fallen into the siege of the thief army, the army of 6,000 Shenji battalion was all annihilated, and Wei Ying's life and death are unknown.

Dongchang 800 miles urgent secret report: The former army of Ulzhou suffered a major defeat and suffered heavy losses, and there are less than 7,000 people left in the current 30,000 army......

One after another, like a hammer, slammed on Zhu Houzhao's head again and again, which really made him unbearable. I can't take it anymore.

"Summoning Jiao Fang, Yang Tinghe, and Liu Daxia to see me, no, summon all the courtiers from the cabinet and the six ministries to me!"

When Zhu Houzhao spoke, he held the seized blood-drinking long knife in his hand. His chest kept rising and falling, and it felt like he was about to blow up.

Soon, the courtiers arrived, and Yang Tinghe crawled in on his knees from the door, but he couldn't dispel the anger in Zhu Houzhao's heart at all. He jumped up and slashed down, desperately wanting to slaughter the bastard.

Fortunately, Jiao Fang and the others were quick to go up and hug him together, so that Yang Tinghe did not have blood splashed on the spot, otherwise, it is estimated that Zhu Houzhao would be able to chop him into seventeen or eighteen pieces alive.

However, even so, Zhu Houzhao was furious and immediately put Yang Tinghe in prison. Just waited for Yang Shen to be caught, so that they could be beheaded together.

Subsequently, Zhu Hou followed Liu Daxia and Zhang Yong to Ulzhou with the Holy Decree and the Sword of the Son of Heaven to arrest Yang Shen.

This news naturally reached Yang Shen's ears quickly, so Yang Shen was really full of depression at that time, and he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, at this time, God sent him a great savior. He was actually in the midst of the chaos and captured the county lord of Weiyuan, hehehehe. At this moment, Yang Shen is definitely fearless.

Therefore, when Yang Shen accompanied Xiao Yu'er to Ulzhou City, he had already ordered people to hurry up 800 miles to win the battle in Ulzhou. At the same time, the matter of "rescuing" the county lord of Weiyuan has been reported to the imperial court.

At the same time, after he arrived in Ulzhou, he immediately handed over all affairs to his deputy, and then he led a thousand elite soldiers to personally escort Xiao Yu'er to the capital.

It is conceivable that when Yang Shen's battle report reached the capital. When it was transmitted to Zhu Houzhao's case, what kind of mood did Zhu Houzhao have. He was overjoyed, he was really overjoyed, he didn't expect Yang Shen to turn the tide of the battle and win the Battle of Ulzhou, let alone that Xiao Yu'er was actually found again and brought back.

"Hahahaha-hahaha-"

Zhu Houzhao held Yang Shen's fold in his hand, looked up to the sky and smiled, after a long time, after he looked at the fold again and again, he couldn't help but be "Bang!" With a bang, he slammed the table and shouted to Gao Feng: "Quickly spread my will, send people to 800 miles to expedite to recover Zhang Yong and Liu Daxia, and at the same time send 2,000 people to Ulzhou with the Beijing camp to welcome the return of the county lord of Weiyuan!" ”

Is the Lord of Weiyuan back?

When Gao Feng heard the news, he was stunned for a long time, and then he hurriedly went to draft the decree and arrange a lot of matters, but Zhu Houzhao was here with a big intestine in his heart, walking back and forth in the leopard room, and he was really happy that he didn't know what to do.

"Get my skateboards, by the way, and the sleds, they're all ready, and when little Yu'er comes back, I'm going to go skiing with her!"

"Also, send someone to release Yang Tinghe, this, how to arrange him, by the way, he is still the first assistant of the cabinet, Jiao Fang will be wronged for the time being, and be a second assistant."

"That's right, the white fox Qiu that the Western Regions paid tribute to last time was found by me, and I will personally put it on for Xiao Yu'er when the time comes, she must look good in it."

"Well, what else needs to be done? Gao Feng, tell me, what do I have to do to make the county lord of Weiyuan happy? ”

Zhu Houzhao's words made Gao Feng a little depressed, he looked at Zhu Houzhao's restless and excited appearance, and he was really a little worried, but after a while, he said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the slave thinks that the person who the county lord of Weiyuan cares about the most is none other than her father." At present, the thief army has suffered a great defeat, and Liang Hong and the others have only fled to the mountains with some scattered personnel, why didn't Your Majesty send a decree to pardon their crimes? In this way, I think the county lord of Weiyuan will be very happy. ”

"yes, why didn't I think of that? That, you, go and draw up the decree and tell the world, just say that I am forgiving and benevolent, and I remember that these thieves have done evil not deeply, and now I have pardoned their guilt, and I hope that they can sincerely change their ways in the future, be dedicated to goodness, and faithfully serve my Ming court! Zhu Houzhao rubbed his hands and said happily.

"Yes, yes, the slave is going to draft the order," Gao Feng was about to retreat, but was stopped by Zhu Houzhao again: "That, is there any definite news?" When will they arrive in the capital? ”

"Your Majesty, when we received Yang Shen's recital, presumably Yang Shen had already escorted the county lord on the road, this time, I am afraid that I am almost past the Hengshan Mountain Range, and I am hurrying to the capital, the slave estimates, if it is not tomorrow, it should arrive the day after tomorrow." Gao Feng said to Zhu Houzhao.

"Okay, you go and inquire about me, see when they will arrive, and when they are almost there, tell me that I will personally go out of the city fifty miles to meet her!" As Zhu Houzhao spoke, he let out a long breath, walked outside, squinted at the vast white snow, unconsciously pulled out his long knife, waved it, and said loudly: "In the past, it was not enough to boast, but now it is debauchery, and the spring breeze is proud, hahaha, I can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day——"

……

"Brother Yang, what do you say people live for?"

The car gradually approached the capital, and Xiao Yuer became inexplicably nervous.

Hearing this, Yang Shen smiled helplessly. These days, after many conversations with Xiao Yu'er, he has been deeply impressed by her young talent, and even has a little like her in his heart. He finally understood why Zhu Houzhao loved this little girl so much. Yes, she is extraordinary, she is absolutely extraordinary, she can be described as one in a million, if it is herself, I am afraid that I can't help but take care of her, and love her deeply.

Along the way, Xiao Yuer has been talking to him paradoxically, many of her words can be said to touch the heart, so Yang Shen became more and more cordial to her, and finally the two of them had a feeling of seeing each other late, often talking and laughing together and chatting stupidly, when they were fine, they would also talk to poetry, in short, they were happy, unconsciously, Yang Shen did not call her the county lord, but called her Xiao Yuer, and Xiao Yuer also changed his name to call him Brother Yang, the two walked all the way forward, but their hearts gradually gave birth to reluctance.

"Brother Yang, if you were given a choice, would you take me away?" Xiao Yu'er looked at the white mountains, and suddenly asked Yang Shendao.

Yang Shen's heart trembled, and he looked at her up and down, unconsciously feeling something. Yes, she is eight years old, and she is eighteen years old, in fact, the age difference is not big, so, if you really can, do you dare to take her away?

Wandering the world and watching Caixia side by side from now on?

Yang Shen didn't dare to imagine it, shook his head desperately, and said to Xiao Yu'er helplessly: "I'm about to arrive in the capital, the emperor has already sent a will, saying that he will go out of the city fifty miles to meet you, this is an honor that many people can't ask for, let's speed up, I'm afraid that a little further, it should be where His Majesty's Luan is located." ”

"Really?" Hearing this, Xiao Yu'er smiled helplessly, then shrank back and sat back in the sedan chair, but then closed the curtain and continued to move forward.

"Yang Shen, I want to tell you something, I hope you can remember clearly, I don't have a bed, so, if you figure it out one day, you can come to me at any time, and I'll go with you-"

It's almost time to arrive at the post station, and as far as the eye can see, you can already see the bright yellow Luan driving canopy, but suddenly a sentence coming out of the sedan chair made Yang Shen stunned.

He didn't know why, when he heard that she didn't sleep in the matter, he actually breathed a sigh of relief, and even felt a burst of happiness, why? Why do you feel this way?

"The holy decree has arrived-Yang Shen has received the decree!"

"Chen Yang Shen takes the order!"

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Yang Shen, the former military governor of Ulzhou, fought bravely, was resourceful, swept away the thieves, and made great contributions, and also escorted the county lord back to Beijing, which made me feel very relieved, and I hereby named Yang Shen as the ...... of Weiyuan."

"Minister Yang Shen commanded, long live Emperor Xie Wu, long live, long live, long live—"

Yang Shen knelt in the snow and took the holy decree, but at the same time, a clear voice came from the side and said, "Brother Yang, I'm going." ”

"Xiao Yu'er?" Yang Shen looked up in a daze as the slender and thin figure walked forward little by little, but in the end, unconsciously, his vision was foggy. He knew that when she went, he was afraid that the two would never see each other again.

"There are beautiful women in the southern country, and they are like peaches and plums. Towards the north bank of the river, stay in Xiaoxianglan at night. The vulgar is thin and beautiful, who is the hair and teeth? Pitching the twilight of the year, glory is difficult to last long......"

Yang Shen read the poem softly and sighed, but in the end, he stood up helplessly, led his entourage, and turned away. (To be continued.) )
