Wu Meiniang knew what Du He was asking, and whispered without any concealment: I asked you to do it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Du He couldn't help but take a step back, although he already knew everything, he still hoped to hear a word from Wu Meiniang's mouth that was not hers, even if it was a deception, it would give him an excuse not to pursue it.

Wu Meiniang doesn't lie, but she doesn't lie to the person she loves the most.

"Why?" Du He was really hard to accept, he didn't care how Wu Meiniang dealt with the eldest grandson Wuji, or what low-level means he used, he knew that Wu Meiniang would do this, and it was all for him.

But Wu Meiniang's means this time, Du He really couldn't accept it, he didn't care that Wu Meiniang counted him, but he couldn't help but care, Wu Meiniang ignored the safety of tens of thousands of troops in the Tang Dynasty. used their life and death as a bet to bring down the eldest grandson Wuji. Wu Meiniang betrayed the intelligence of the Tang Army, which was a move to push the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty onto the cliff.

Although the situation was not bad, there were no terrible consequences. But if it weren't for Pei Xingjian's existence, if it weren't for him being one step faster than Songtsan Gampo, then the Tang army would have paid an extremely painful price.

Everything will be as Songtsen Gampo expected, the grain army will be wiped out, and the hundreds of thousands of troops he leads will become a lone army without food, trapped on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

When he arrived at that Jedi, even if the Tang Army was brave, it would be difficult to return to the sky. He Duhe was able to lead half of the Tang army back to the Tang Dynasty, which was considered a great luck.

In the best case, half of the Tang Army will be buried in other places, not to mention the worst.

Just like Xue Rengui's battle of Dafeichuan, it was because there was a problem in the rear of the army, and the Tang army, which had the advantage, paid the price of the annihilation of the entire army.

Of course, this did not happen, but despite this, Duhe still couldn't let go. Because Wu Meiniang's original intention was to use the defeat of the Tang Army as a cost, it was only the development of things that did not go as she intended to bring down the eldest grandson Wuji.

It is conceivable that if the Tang army is really defeated, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers, will they be buried in other places, will Li Shimin still be able to spare the eldest grandson Wuji as easily as he is now?

No way.

It was because of the appearance of Du He and Pei Xingjian that saved the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the adversity of the leaked information, turned defeat into victory, overcame this difficulty, and achieved the final victory, indirectly destroying Wu Meiniang's real plan and saving the life of the eldest grandson Wuji.

It's already happened, and all this doesn't matter anymore.

What Du He cared about was Wu Meiniang's original intentions.

Duhe asked himself if he was a saint who didn't have the power to save the world. But he was the commander of the three armies, but his wife planned to send his soldiers and his men to the tomb. and with their innocent lives, they will destroy their fierce enemies for Tazar.

How does this make him face Luo Tong and Fang Yiai, brothers who share life and death, how to face the brave battle of Du He who threw his head and shed blood for him and for the Tang Dynasty. , but in the current situation, he is in a dilemma: on one side is his dear and beloved wife, and on the other side is his comrades-in-arms and brothers who share life and death.

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have let the source of everything against the eldest grandson Wuji be on me"

Du He couldn't blame Wu Meiniang, and chose to attribute all the faults to himself, if it wasn't for his fancy to Wu Meiniang's ability and let her secretly form a force to deal with the eldest grandson Wuji, there would be no today.

Thinking that because of himself, the soldiers under his command who almost harmed him fell to death, his heart was like a knife.

The tears on Wu Meiniang's face rolled down, and she was a little relieved to see that Du He didn't blame her, and she was more heartbroken, and said with a miserable smile: "I'm just a woman, I don't know any big truths, and I don't care about any truths." I just know that this Du Mansion is my home, Du Lang is my husband, my everything. I'm going to protect all of this and not allow anyone to break it. Even if the enemy is the emperor, I am not afraid, even if tens of thousands or even tens of millions of people die, I don't care that the eldest grandson Wuji is in Du Lang's predicament, he is Du Lang's most powerful political enemy, his existence is too threatening, even if Du Lang did not give instructions at the beginning, there will be today's results So, if Du Lang wants to blame, blame Mei Niang, it is Mei Niang's heart, it is Mei Niang who hides from Du Lang, and sets up a bureau to sacrifice Du Lang's army to deal with Changsun Wuji. ”

When Wu Meiniang said this, her teeth were clenched, but her face was resolute and firm. These words come from the bottom of her heart, from the heart, even if she falls into a situation of no return, she Wu Meiniang has no regrets for this family.

Du He was moved, loving and pitying, he remembered what happened to Wu Meiniang. If she hadn't been bullied when she was a child and tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, how could she have such a biased character?

Looking at Wu Mei Niangyu's appearance with pear blossoms, he softened, stepped forward and hugged her gently, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, let him go in the past, don't do this kind of thing in the future." This time it's luck, and the next time it may not be so lucky. ”

Du He is very fortunate now, glad to have Pei Xingjian's existence, and he had one more heart at the beginning, so that the tragic thing would be alive.

If it is really as Wu Meiniang calculated, then he Du He really doesn't know how to choose.

Now that the tragedy has not happened, the guilt in Du He's heart has a limit.

The boulder in Wu Meiniang's heart finally landed, smiled, and fainted in Du He's arms.

Since Du He came back, Wu Meiniang has been like a tight leather band, panicked and trembling. She knew her husband and knew that Du He could forgive her everything, but she couldn't forgive her for this cruel method of ignoring the lives of thousands of soldiers. She didn't know what to do next, and even had the stupid idea that if she was expelled from the house, she would simply die, but now she was finally at ease, and no one could support it, so she fainted in Du He's arms.

Du He was startled, and hurriedly hugged her, and suddenly found that Wu Meiniang had a face, and tears left two distinct marks on her face, and she couldn't help but stretch out her hand to mo, only to find that her face was covered with a thin layer of rouge, and the skin under the rouge was pale and scary.

Du He's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ran out of the mansion and called the doctor in person.

Wu Meiniang was just frightened, her body was weak, and she was fine, as long as she had a good rest, she would be fine.

Du He looked at Wu Meiniang, whose face was as white as snow, and he was only worried in his heart.

Du He no longer mentioned this matter, but he could never forget it in his heart, he didn't blame Wu Meiniang, he only felt that he was a little sorry for the soldiers who went with him. Just like a person who has done something wrong, this guilt will be hidden deep in his heart and remembered for a lifetime.

In the evening of the same day, Du He accompanied Wu Meiniang, who had woken up, and suddenly got a report from his subordinates, who was the eldest grandson Wuji who asked him to come over to talk about it.

Du He's heart couldn't help jumping, he and his eldest grandson Wuji had different political opinions, and they were even more in the same place because of Li Chengqian. How could the eldest grandson Wuji invite him inexplicably, did he find something and set up a Hongmen banquet?

He glanced at Wu Meiniang with a weak heart, if the eldest grandson Wuji really found something, then he could only let go of everything to protect Wu Meiniang.

Compared with Du He's surprise, Wu Meiniang smiled lightly without care, and said a little weakly: "It should also come, Du Lang, go and it's time to dissolve everything." ”

Du He was puzzled: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Du Lang's understanding of the eldest grandson Wuji is not as good as mine, the eldest grandson Wuji has the highest status, the head of civil and military affairs, but his biggest weakness is that he has no real power, unlike Lord Fang and his father-in-law, who dominate Wenchen, nor like Duke Wei, General Qin, and General Li Ji, who have supreme prestige in the army. He was able to stand out in his own way in the court and override the civil and military forces, only because of His Majesty's trust and respect. Now His Majesty's heart is cold, the eldest grandson Wuji has lost his support, and he has no strength. For the sake of the eldest grandson's family, he sensibly chose to stay away from the court. Now the only person in the Changsun family who is in the court is Changsun Quan, who is the hope of revitalizing the Changsun family. But if Xianggong continues to struggle with the eldest grandson's family, the eldest grandson will have a hard time. If Mei Niang didn't guess wrong, the eldest grandson Wuji planned to reconcile with the prime minister. ”

Du He was a little unconvinced, and said with a smile: "The eldest grandson and old fox have the most eyes, and he hides a knife in his smile, and bows his head to me, right?" ”

Wu Meiniang shook her head and said: "If you can afford to take it and put it down, you are the big husband." If the eldest grandson Wuji is really a person who can't afford to let go, how can he be qualified to be an enemy of each other? ”

Du He thought about it, the eldest grandson Wuji was powerful, he had also experienced it personally, and nodded: "Then does he still have the opportunity to make a comeback?"

Wu Meiniang said: "At least in the Zhenguan Dynasty, it is unlikely, and the lost trust is not easily recoverable." However, who knows what will happen in the future, but it is certain that within ten years, it will be difficult for him to turn over. Ten years later, with the ability of the father-in-law, even if he cannot succeed the position of the father-in-law, he can be called the first general in the army. Although the eldest grandson family does not have the eldest grandson Wuji, there is still the eldest grandson queen. Mei Niang felt that Xianggong should choose to reconcile, which was more appropriate. The eldest grandson Wuji fell, and it was no longer interesting to continue to be the enemy of the eldest grandson's family. ”

Du He understood the meaning of Wu Meiniang's words, nodded, and accepted the invitation.

Du He is very interested in calligraphy, and saw that the invitation letter was written by the eldest grandson Wuji, just like Wu Meiniang's, the invitation letter was written very enthusiastically, and there was no shelf.

He accepted the invitation, accompanied Wu Meiniang for a while, and rushed to the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji at the invitation.

The glorious Guogong Mansion in the past is now a little bleak.

People go to tea and cool, and the glory is no more.

Du He was outside the Guogong Mansion, and he also felt a little touched, so he called the door and handed over the invitation.

When the old man who opened the door saw the invitation, he immediately became respectful, and said, "Lord Guogong, please come in,

When I entered the living room and sat down, my family had already instructed, and the Lord Guogong came, so I didn't need to report it, and I invited you to serve tea in the house.

Du He nodded, and under the guidance of his old family Ding, he strode into the long-lost Zhao State Mansion.
