Although Li is Li Laixiang's aunt, but the age is not as old as him, Li has long passed the age of marriage, but because Li Zicheng has been delayed in the southern and northern wars over the years, Li Laixiang has always been very interested in the marriage of this imperial aunt, but has not been looking for a favorite, the young and beautiful Li is very famous in the Dashun Dynasty, in the first ten years of her life, she did not eat enough, and the last ten years followed her father to rebel, and she was displaced, and she did not have a day of peace, until Li Laixiang temporarily took a firm foothold in Jiangnan, It's just that at this time, she has become an orphan, and she has obtained the title of this imperial aunt by virtue of the prestige left by her father, and she is also a woman with a hard life. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Last year, there was news from the Ming court, saying that in order to make the relationship between Ming and Shun closer, the King of the Ming Han Dynasty was willing to accept the eldest aunt of Emperor Dashun as a concubine to show the friendship between the two countries.

Li Laixiang almost didn't blow up his lungs at that time, and beheaded the messenger who came back from the Ming court in a fit of anger, and took this as a great shame.

Li Laixiang, who was furious, rushed straight to Xiao Han, if it weren't for the ministers to dissuade him, he would have announced that he would immediately raise troops to crusade against Nanjing, and after a few days, he gradually calmed down his anger, and he was glad that he didn't do anything stupid, but how to reply to the Ming Court has become his nightmare, marrying the imperial aunt will undoubtedly make the world laugh, if you don't marry, will Wang Lanping give up? I really don't know how this madman Wang Lanping could come up with such a disgusting and unpaid request on the way to conquer Sichuan, I knew that this was the case, and it would have been slaughtered in Huaining City that year.

Li Laixiang first gave a respectful salute, and said softly: "The emperor's nephew greets my aunt"

Li was dressed in a purple gauze skirt, his waist was less than a hand, the whole person was small and exquisite, standing there with a smile, his skin was like snow, his cheeks were red, there was a thin layer of fragrant sweat on his forehead, and there was an indescribable brightness and nobility between the shallow smiles and low groans, even if it was his nephew, he couldn't help but admire.

This woman does have proud capital, and after being a hero, although she lacks the delicacy of a boudoir woman, she can behave with a good demeanor, which has another flavor. Coupled with her deliberate dress today, she is a little more pitiful than usual. I don't know, can she evoke the love in her heart in the eyes of King Han?

Li Laixiang has no blood relationship with her, and while he was staring at her like this, a very evil thought suddenly popped up in his mind: I am the dignified Emperor Dashun, so beautiful, why don't I use it for myself, why should I give it to others to enjoy, is the peace exchanged for women really useful?

"Why did the Imperial Aunt come to me?" Li Laixiang turned his back to hide his greedy gaze from nowhere, as if he wanted to get a woman who had a relationship with Wang Lanping.

Li didn't see what he thought, and waved his hand to make the maids around him retreat.

"Your Majesty, I heard that King Tinghan pacified Sichuan, right?" I don't know why, she couldn't help but show a hint of crimson on her face when she talked about King Han.

Although Li Laixiang didn't see her expression, he heard a concern in these words, and a kind of jealousy suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Why did the imperial aunt suddenly ask about him, have you seen him?" Li Laixiang was still facing away from her, and the expression on his face was a little distorted.

Li Shi took a deep breath, took a few steps to the side with Luo's skirt, just right, there was a rockery on the side, she gently stroked the stone surface with her fingertips that were no longer rough, and pretended to say casually: "Where have I seen him, just casually asked, by the way, the emperor, I don't know if the emperor has made a decision on the matter of peace and marriage proposed by Nanjing that time, and it has been more than half a year."

Li Laixiang gritted his teeth, tried his best to calm his anger, turned his face to show an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and was angry and jealous, and raised the corners of his mouth and said, "How does the imperial aunt want me to reply?" ”

Li Shi looked at the rockery and said softly: "Although the imperial aunt is your elder, you are the emperor, and the imperial aunt is the emperor."

Li Laixiang's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched his five fingers involuntarily, "Does the imperial aunt want to go or not?" ”

Hearing this, a scene suddenly appeared in Li's mind, with the support of thousands of troops and horses, Wang Lanping, the king of Han, rode a high-headed horse, and walked through the long street in the gaze of tens of thousands of people, and no one along the way did not bow to him, and he was sitting in the carriage behind him quietly looking at the majestic back of the Han King, who is he and what does he look like?

Thinking about it, Li couldn't help but smile lightly, and after discovering his inappropriate move, Emperor Li Laixiang was staring at him with a hostile gaze.

Li straightened his waist, turned his face away, and said: "I'm just a woman, the country and the court are insignificant, presumably my marriage is not my own decision, if the emperor wants me to go, the imperial aunt will not hesitate to marry, for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of the Dashun Dynasty, and for the emperor Your throne is eternal, in order to comfort my father's soul in the sky."

Li Laixiang's eyes narrowed into a slit, "The imperial aunt wants to go?" ”

"Didn't I say it, everything is up to the emperor, but if the emperor thinks of the hard-won foundation of the Dashun Dynasty, he should sacrifice me, an insignificant woman, even if it can only be exchanged for a few years of peace, it is not in vain to be the daughter of my father and the emperor."

Li Laixiang snorted, turned around, and stepped on the bricks under his feet, "Emperor Taizu (Li Zicheng) started from the grass, and fought in the east and west to conquer this country, what a majestic majesty that waited, I will never be humiliated even if I am a nest, the dignified aunt admires others as concubines, where do I put this face, do you want the prestige of Emperor Taizu, imperial aunt, I am determined to decide, I will definitely not agree to this matter"

Li Shi showed a touch of loss on his face when he heard this, in the end, he was already past the age of marriage, and he has always longed for things between men and women, especially for heroes who have been rumored to be miraculous by the people of the world, heroes like his father, how can he not be tempted in his heart, but this concubine is really disgraceful, but she is not only fond of King Han, after all, this is a major event in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, Dashun is her father who exchanged his life with a knife and a gun, and finally took root and cannot be destroyed. At this time, it is definitely not a good thing to offend the powerful people of the Ming Dynasty.

Li said: "Then the emperor is not afraid that the King of Han will use this to rejuvenate his teacher?" ”

"Diplomatic relations, I don't think he will do it like this" I don't know why, Wang Lanping is getting more and more unbearable under his mouth, it seems that if he doesn't scold King Han for a few words, the fire in his heart will not come out.

Li nodded slightly, and said: "I hope what the emperor said is right, the current Dashun country can't afford to toss, alas, okay, I'm leaving, it's still the same sentence, if the emperor changes his mind, I don't object, sacrifice me alone to keep the people safe, and there will be no regrets about dying."

Although the Li family has lived a life of exile in recent years, they have also gained a lot of experience and knowledge, which is no longer comparable to the rural village girls of the past.

As soon as Li finished saying this, he saw that the emperor's expression in front of him changed greatly, and he stepped forward and grabbed her hand tightly, grasping it so hard.

"I don't send it, I don't send anyone else" Li Laixiang almost roared, "I don't need women for peace, he wants to fight, I will accompany him, I'm afraid he won't succeed"

Li's flower was pale, and she struggled hard, but she couldn't break it away, she said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you, you hurt me, let go, don't be rude"

As everyone knows, what she said, Li Laixiang was even more energetic, and suddenly took her in his arms and said: "Imperial aunt, I will not give you away, never, you are mine, you belong to me, everyone knows, I have no blood relationship with your father, I am older than you, you, you stay by my side."

When Li Shi heard him say this, he immediately exerted all his strength and pushed him away, his face flushed, "Your Majesty, you, how can you say that, I am your imperial aunt, you can't have such thoughts"

Li Laixiang didn't seem to care about this, and said hurriedly: "I know that the imperial aunt is lonely in the palace, and I have long been in love with the imperial aunt, if the imperial aunt can donate this worldly name, I will be a long-term couple with the imperial aunt in this palace, no one will know, imperial aunt, are you willing to stay by my side?" ”

Li's face was white and red for a while, his silver teeth were bitten, and he took a few steps back, then he took a deep breath and said slowly: "The emperor is self-respecting, I am your elder, I shouldn't have heard these words, the imperial aunt retired" After that, she turned around and left, turning back step by step, for fear that the nephew emperor would catch up again.

**

After surviving the mountains and the long road, it is just to meet the soldiers. Hanzhong, in the Three Kingdoms period a long time ago, it was an important battlefield that could control the Central Plains, for thousands of years, no one knows how many battles have been fought here, how many soldiers have been buried under every inch of land here, blood and sand, glory and glory, all grew up here, who knows who will come out of here today.

The weather is sunny and the sun is shining.

On the uneven wilderness, hundreds of thousands of Qing troops and hundreds of thousands of Ming troops spread out in the north and south, black and oppressive like ant colonies, and like huge waves cascading in layers.

After the confrontation, no one knows exactly when it started; It seems that there is a fight in front from the beginning. Where the two armies fought, countless men and horses were frightened away in confusion, and the arrows flying in the air seemed to be a torrential rain on a clear sky.

Wang Lanping looked at it, a forest of long weapons and iron armor, and the dust was billowing and he couldn't see the head and tail.

It was difficult for him to see clearly how the Qing army was deployed, as if at this time, it was useless to know and not know, Hong Chengchou could see his lineup clearly? Looking at it, I can't see my lineup clearly.

However, he knew very well that this battle was about the survival of the country and himself, and the impact was significant! If you want to climb up again, the battle of Hanzhong is the best time.

The rumbling war drums, the whimpering horns, and the dense black dots in the air opened the prelude to the Ming army's attack.

In the dust and fog and the sound of killing, the horse's hooves roared, as if there were ten ambushes and thousands of troops and horses killed together, and when it was still far from the front of the Qing army's position, Wang Lanping could feel that the iron flow that could engulf everything was slowly forming in front of him.

Soon, after a few rounds of artillery fire from the Qing army, the two battalions of the Ming army, with a total of about 30,000 people, pulled out a five-mile-long battle line and rushed up.

Thousands of arrows flew in the air, the human brain was beaten into a dog brain, and nearly 70,000 people were instantly crowded into a position within a radius of two miles in the middle.

The battle in front of him was about to be white-hot, Wang Lanping couldn't see clearly, only the northeast wind was blowing in his face, and the sand and stones were flying in the whistling sound, and the sand and gravel hit his face and hurt, and the dust was blown by the wind, so that people couldn't open their eyes.

Wave after wave, the soldiers poured up one after another like the tide of the sea, people kept falling, people kept wailing on the ground, the soldiers on both sides had become a pot of porridge, and all long-range weapons quickly lost their effectiveness.

Hong Chengchou at the head of Hanzhong City can only vaguely see the smoke rising from the battlefield, he is also anxious, more anxious than Wang Lanping, he can't be defeated in Hanzhong, and the end of defeat is the same as Kong Youde in Yangzhou, but he is earnest, and if he wants to become an indispensable figure in the Qing court, he must solve Wang Lanping's fierce opponent once and for all, and if he wants to defeat him, it seems that only such a fool's decisive battle can work, and only relying on the cavalry of Manmeng can have a better chance of winning.

Hong Chengchou looked at the battlefield in front of him for a while, looked in the northeast direction for a while, and asked around him a little impatiently, "Where are the reinforcements from Xi'an?" ”

"It's still in the city, it's hard to move an inch"

Hong Chengchou was a little sad, as desperately as on the battlefield in front of him, he was sure that both sides could not afford to kill this person, and the best way was to take advantage of the melee of the army, and the 100,000 reinforcements from Xi'an quickly interspersed behind the other party, cutting off the return route of the Ming army's retreat from the south of Hanshui, first messing up its army's morale, and then encircling the Ming army with more than 500,000 troops.

Wang Lanping's side seems to have only given a military order at the beginning and then stopped giving an order, as if he was really a spectator watching nearly a million people fight today.

watched the Guan Ning army rampaging in the Ming army array, killing countless people, and finally saw Wu Sangui being pierced by dozens of spears in the chaotic army, saw tens of thousands of cavalry being squeezed so that even the horses were pierced into a sieve, saw the Chinese character banner constantly falling and rising, saw the blood rolling in the air, the sky was dyed red, and nothing could be smelled in the air except the smell of blood.

This has become a giant meat grinder, which is devouring countless lives without limit, as if this machine cannot be stopped until one party is completely dead.

It was slightly dark, and the wind had subsided.

Suddenly, there was a burst of vigorous artillery shelling in the direction of Hanzhong City in the distance.

Wang Lanping's tense face finally showed a hint of relief, and the Dingyuan battalion began to attack the north gate of Hanzhong.

At the same time, he seemed to see some changes in the position of the Qing army, the tail of the formation moved, and a group of men and horses were slowly withdrawing from the position and heading towards the direction of Hanzhong City.

Wang Lanping pointed to the forward position and repeated the military order again, "At all costs, press the whole line, bite him to death, and not a single soldier will allow him to be transferred back to the city."

War drums and trumpets rose in the sky...... (To be continued.) )
