"Ah, you, you are really Brother Ye!" Hua Ji pulled the brocade quilt and sat up in surprise, and then her face turned pale, and she said urgently: "Brother Ye, you, you go quickly, go quickly." ”

Ye Zhao coughed dryly and said, "You get dressed." He turned and went to the outer room.

Sitting on the sofa, Ye Zhao picked up a newspaper and read it, and there was silence inside for a while before he heard the sound of squirming and getting dressed.

After a while, I heard Hua Ji get out of bed and pull on her shoes and walk out slowly, her little face was pale at this time, obviously she had thought of Ye Zhao's identity, and came to the sofa and knelt down gently, her small body looked shaky.

Ye Zhao smiled and pointed to the sofa on the side seat, and said, "Sit down, what's the matter, Brother Ye has become a prince, so it's not Brother Ye anymore?" ”

Hua Ji was both happy and scared in her heart at the moment, it turned out that Brother Ye, who had been taking care of herself, was the prince, and it turned out that the prince was a very good person, but Brother Ye was the prince...... Ye Zhao said again: "Fujin, I'm joking with you, don't be afraid, sit down first and settle down." Picked up a few bells and shook them, and soon a delicate little maid walked in, and Ye Zhao said, "Make two cups of hot coffee." Looking at Hua Ji and said, "Get up, sit down, what's the matter, do you want Brother Ye to hug you?" ”

Hua Ji blushed, hurriedly got up, sat down carefully, and secretly looked at Ye Zhao, and when she saw Ye Zhao's gaze, she hurriedly lowered her head.

Ye Zhao smiled, didn't speak, just flipped through the newspaper, it was produced by the Silent Hall of the Ministry of Rites, and now it is only distributed on a small scale, limited to various yamen, which is equivalent to the internal publications of later generations.

When the coffee was delivered, Hua Ji hurriedly got up and took it, and said timidly, "Thank you, sister." ”

The little maid was stunned, didn't dare to say more, and retreated lightly.

Ye Zhao looked at her and smiled slightly: "Settle down, in the future, if you want to call me Brother Ye or call me Brother Ye, I will take you to eat pork ribs when I have time, okay?" ”

Hua Ji whispered: "Slave maid, slave maid listen to the prince." Although she is timid and submissive, she is a little more lively in front of "Brother Ye", but now, that liveliness has disappeared.

Ye Zhao sighed in his heart, he knew that it would be like this, and beckoned, "Sit down and drink coffee." ”

The room fell silent, except for the sound of Hanahime taking a sip of coffee.

I don't know how long later, the little maid outside the door came in and said, "Lord Wang, the two Fujin are back." ”

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, but continued to flip through the newspaper, the coffee in Hua Ji's cup over there was already empty, holding the empty cup, lowering his head, and not daring to speak.

Ye Zhao finally got up and went out.

Grandma Jin Er and Rong'er are talking in the Daisy Pavilion, and the big beauty is sitting on the soft mound of the bed, with red gauze nightgowns, crisp breasts and buttocks, and snow is greasy and charming; The little beauty moon white pajamas and pajamas, sitting at the head of the bed with a pair of small flower socks crossed, her little feet are shaking proudly, carved in pink, cute and indescribable.

One big and one small two beautiful dolls, infinite style.

Looking at Grandma Jin Er pulling the little red embroidered slippers, the faintly exposed snowy little feet Ye Zhaoxin was hot, and then remembered what was annoying, so he snorted.

The two Fujin were chatting happily, they didn't hear the footsteps, and when Ye Zhao spoke, it was obvious that the two Fujin were startled, and Grandma Jin Er hurriedly got up to salute, Yingying Wanfu, "The slave maid asks for peace to the master." ”

Rong'er also jumped off the bed and was about to say goodbye, but was held in her arms by Ye Zhao like a child, Ye Zhao smiled and kissed her little face, "Little guy, you're naughty again, aren't you?" ”

Rong'er is not disgusted with Ye Zhao treating her like this, but is happy, feeling that she is favored by her husband, but at this moment, her heart is weak, she lowers her head, and she doesn't squeak.

Looking at Jin Er's grandmother Ye Zhaoke, she was not so polite, and frowned: "You are getting more and more bold." ”

Grandma Jin Er wore a red gauze nightgown, hazy and tempting, in the later life, it is definitely a sexy underwear that makes men crazy, the surname is coquettish, but at this time she knelt on the ground, at the hem of the nightgown, a pair of snow-white beautiful legs loomed, kneeling on the red felt, and the buttocks outlined a wonderful arc, and the charm was boundless.

"Xianggong, yes, I want Jin Feng to do it." Rong'er whispered to excuse Jiner's grandmother.

Ye Zhao turned around and kissed her, and said with a smile: "You are the main culprit, kiss it!" Accomplice, to hit the board! "It's clearly eccentric.

Grandma Jiner's voice was soft, so charming that water dripped out, "The slave is at the disposal of the prince." She didn't panic, she hadn't heard that arranging a concubine for Xianggong would be disgusted by Xianggong, even if she was angry for a while, she would turn her head and pass.

"Get up!" Ye Zhao glared at her.

"Yes." Grandma Nishiki got up lightly.

In fact, Ye Zhao can understand Rong'er and her thoughts, he is the regent of the Northern Dynasty and has an honorable status, but now there are only two Fujin, and there is no concubine.

Maybe Rong'er has always been a heart problem in this matter, and she feels sorry for her husband, and she, a genuine lady, is even more derelict in her duties, so she naturally hit it off with Jin Feng.

pondering, Ye Zhao said: "If you go back and find her a job, go to the big theater, also go to be a line dance teacher, and live with Sava too." "The same people who have fallen from the end of the world, and they are wandering here from their hometowns, there may be common topics.

Grandma Jin Er was stunned for a moment and said, "Lord, that ......"

Ye Zhao knew what she wanted to say, waved his hand, and said, "If there is something to do, you can be cheerful, as for the rest, let's talk about it." Ye Zhao did not resist Hua Ji entering the house, although he had a wife and concubine in the third room, but almost every time he was alone in the empty room, he had a good physique, and he felt that his body was getting stronger and stronger, this whole day there is no husband and wife life endocrine I don't know if it will be out of balance, it is good to have a warm foot girl, but the timing is very wrong today, wait and see later, if Hua Ji contacts the outside world and has a sweetheart, this matter will be stopped.

"Yes." The prince took the idea, and Grandma Jin Er was naturally obedient, and then went out to make arrangements, and turned back after a while.

Ye Zhao sat at the head of the bed with Rong'er in his arms, and pointed to the soft pier and said, "Jin Feng, sit." Seeing the big and small beautiful dolls sitting beside each other smiling and chatting with themselves, Ye Zhao's heart gradually became peaceful, only to feel that the warmth was infinite, and the disturbances in the world gradually flew away.

Later, Ye Zhao said to tell the story to Rong'er and Jin Feng, and hugged Rong'er into the brocade quilt, Rong'er likes to listen to Xianggong's storytelling the most, as before, her small body is close to Xianggong, and when Xianggong's right arm covers her shoulder, she is tired of falling into Xianggong's arms. Ye Zhao often hugged her in front of Jiner's grandmother, she was used to it, and she didn't feel shy.

Ye Zhao smiled at Grandma Jin Er at this time: "You can come up too." His left arm patted the empty seat at the head of the bed, "Come and lie down, Xianggong will also hold you." ”

Rong'er and Grandma Jin'er opened their mouths in surprise, although Grandma Jin'er did everything to please Ye Zhao, but the three of them slept together, what could they say?

Ye Zhao smiled: "You guys, what are you thinking, it's getting cold, it's comfortable to chat like this." "It's true that Ye Zhao doesn't have any evil intentions now, and he is chatting happily with the two.

"Don't want to hear my story? Then you go back to your room, I'll tell Rong'er myself. Ye Zhao kissed Rong'er's snow-white forehead again, and Rong'er grinned.

Rong'er and Jin'er's grandmother can feel that Xianggong is not a ridiculous idea today, just now the three of them laughed and chatted, but they felt that their mood was closer, and Jin'er's grandmother was really reluctant to leave, but the master rarely chatted with her seriously.

Seeing Ye Zhao stretch out his left arm again, he smiled and said, "Come up if you don't leave." Obviously, she wanted to hug her like holding Rong'er to tell the story, Grandma Jin Er was so surprised that she was really flattered, so she hurriedly took off her embroidered slippers, got into the brocade quilt with a beautiful body with a sense of surname, and carefully leaned her neck on Ye Zhao's left arm, for fear of pressing Ye Zhao.

The fragrance of young girls and the fragrance of beautiful flowers linger on the nose, on one side is a crystal clear young beauty, and on the other hand, there is an infinite temptation of inch by inch of charming bones**, that feeling, it is almost like a Buddha to become an immortal, Ye Zhao helplessly pulled his arm from the neck of the two, and said: "Stay away from me, otherwise this story will not be told." ”

Grandma Jiner smiled, her delicate body moved back slightly, and Rong'er hurriedly stepped back from her small body next to Xianggong.

"Well, what do you like to hear? Is the story of Xiao Li's flying knife good? ”

"Okay." The two girls replied crisply together.

Ye Zhao was very happy in his heart, and immediately talked about Li Tanhua, Ah Fei, Lin Xian'er, and after a while, he asked Jin'er Grandma and Rong'er to tell stories separately, Rong'er learned some small stories in the textbook, Ye Zhao praised a few words, Xiao Bu was very happy, talked for a while, and fell asleep in Ye Zhao's arms tiredly. When Ye Zhao asked Jin's second grandmother to tell a story, she was worried, and Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Let's just talk about your past, there are always some fun or angry things about doing business, right?" ”

Grandma Jiner racked her brains and picked a few things to say, happy and depressed, but she was teased by Ye Zhao, saying that she was "unclear" and "stingy" Yunyun, Grandma Jiner just smiled, and her soft snowy feet gently scratched Xianggong's calves, her eyes were like silk, and her heart was infinitely sweet, she could talk and talk about her heart like this, which woman in the world had such a blessing?

…… At the end of September 1858, a new army formation of the Great Qing Dynasty marched south along the junction of Hunan and Jiangxi, intending to quietly penetrate into the Jiangxi border, attack Ji'an, or even go south to Ganzhou and Shaozhou in one go, which is called the Southern Expeditionary Army.

In the left of Yuanzhou Mansion, the new army's southern expeditionary army was discovered by the local patrol battalion, and then met with stubborn resistance from the patrol battalion, fierce battle for a long time, the Qing army annihilated more than 1,000 people in the patrol battalion, but because the intention of the southern expedition was exposed, it turned west and retreated into Changsha.

Immediately, the world shook, the first battle of the Great Fresh Army, the unprecedented heavy damage to the invincible Pingyuan Army, although it was only a local force, but it also made the Qing Army prestige from all walks of life.

But then, at the beginning of October, Su Hongniang, commander of the Western Route Army of the Pingyuan Army, led two thousand elite rifle teams into Guizhou, and went through the state like a devastating state, defeating the green battalion and countless bravery, and the heaven and earth in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, the fair party immediately rose up and responded, the Western Expeditionary Army attacked the state and broke the house, such as chopping melons and vegetables, not a month, Duyun, Pingyue, Xingyi, Anshun and other prefectures and counties all fell, and the Pingyuan Western Expeditionary Army seemed to know the situation of Guizhou's city defense well. The Western Route Army swept the entire territory of Guizhou for a while, pointing at Chengdu, and several lonely cities in Guizhou either raised white flags under the siege of the righteous army, or they were defeated and retreated to Yunnan, Hunan, and Sichuan, and by the beginning of November, the banner of King Su had been planted all over Guizhou.

On November 6, the governor of Yunnan, Lao Chongguang, changed his banner and returned to Guangzhou.

In the same month, the Hunan army entered Guizhou to quell the rebellion, and the second town of the Pingyuan army launched an attack on Changsha, and fought fiercely with the Jizi battalion of the Hunan army and the Daqing army under the city of Changsha.

In Jiangxi, Han Jinchun's troops were stationed in Ruizhou to prevent the Qing army from taking advantage of the opportunity to move south, while Li Xiucheng's troops of the Nanchang Taiping Army and several bandits immediately attacked the camp in Fuzhou, Jiangxi, and were bound to pull out the thorn in the throat that had threatened him for a year.

Shi Dakai of Jiujiang Mansion avoided the main force of the new army of the Qing army and led the bandits to attack Wuchang Mansion.

In Fujian, Zhao Sanbao's sword pointed at Fuzhou and fought with Luo Zenan on the Minjiang River.

For a while, the land of China was full of war, and the imminent war between the North and the South was like a powder keg thrown into Mars, which broke out immediately.

In the Yin'an Hall of the County King's Mansion, Ye Zhao silently looked at the military maps hanging on the hall and paced slowly.

The matchmaker swept Guizhou is not unexpected at all, Yungui soldiers and horses, mainly cold weapons, the so-called musket is not worth mentioning, the two thousand elite riflemen who are not afraid of death, are all fair party bandits, now well-equipped, and contact the heaven and earth that is still in contact with the matchmaker will be fair party response, Yungui green battalion is naturally vulnerable, and this kind of rogue tactics is the usual tactics used by the chaotic party.

What's more, the situation of the Guizhou Prefecture, these years the Internal Affairs Bureau is very probed, to say that the world attaches great importance to military intelligence, the first to recommend Ye Zhao, and most of the Qing army is ignorant, all the righteous troops are even more smeared, it is said that the Taiping Army Northern Expedition, for the situation of the state capital along the way is ignorant of nothing, to Henan, for only a thousand defenders but there are a large number of materials to supplement the Kaifeng Mansion abandoned, because they thought that Kaifeng Mansion is an important town, set a strict guard, but to attack Huaiqing, in order to obtain supplementary supplies, the military situation is unknown, into the Qing army encirclement, In the eyes of posterity, it was a very serious strategic mistake, but given the situation at the time, the commander-in-chief had no choice.

And the Pingyuan Western Expeditionary Army will not face this situation at all, which state capital can fight, which can be slowed down, how can Lord Su not count this detailed information? Not to mention the huge advantage of hot weapons over cold weapons.

Now on the West Road front, Ye Zhaoquan is not worried, the Pingyuan army is all the way, but the most pressure is Shenbao, in the face of Li Xiucheng's elite bandits, tens of thousands of people, and they have been suppressed for a year, like wolf cubs waiting to be fed, this first town in Pingyuan is going to go through a bloody battle.

Pacing and thinking silently, Ye Zhao also knew that now the barracks yamen must be flying like snowflakes of paper and telegrams, and logistics scheduling and communication support are the top priorities, and the barracks need to coordinate from them.

"Lord Wang! Yunnan Governor Lao Chongguang arrived! The guards entered the temple to pray.

Ye Zhao just smiled: "Please." ”

It didn't take much effort, a guard led the official with gray hair to walk in, Lao Chongguang is a Daoguang twelve-year jinshi, close to the sixtieth year, but the spirit is strong, enter the palace door and kneel respectfully: "Sinner Lao Chongguang see the prince!" ”

Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Lord Futai, please get up, Futai cares about the common people, knows the way back, and avoids the misery of life, what is the crime?" Don't say that again. ”

"The prince is magnanimous, and he doesn't dare to be a lowly officer." As Lao Chongguang spoke, he slowly got up, lowering his head but not looking at Ye Zhao.

Lao Chongguang actually had correspondence with the two palaces for a long time, the Pingyuan army was like a bamboo in Guizhou, and Yunnan became a lonely place in a blink of an eye.

It's just that standing on this Yin'an Palace at this moment, he is not in a calm mood, although the Southern Dynasty has a queen mother and a Tongzhi master, but everyone knows the power of the dynasty and the hand of the king.

King Su, a young man who fought in the north and south, and was a general, even if he was placed in the history books, only with his current merits, he was also a first-class celebrity, but the land of Zhongzhou has not seen such a prestige and such a prominent figure for more than a hundred years.

It's just that the country is about to die, and there will be demons, and now the Qing Dynasty is in turmoil, and such a figure has descended from the sky, but I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

Lao Chongguang sighed in his heart, his face remained silent, and he listened to King Su ask about the situation in Yunnan, and answered one by one. took the time to sneak a glance at King Su, the golden crown and powder, the dragon robe and jade belt, the extravagance is compelling, the yellow cancan group is auspicious, and he is a good young prince.

"Futai can play in Guangzhou for a few more days, if it weren't for the cumbersome military situation now, Yunnan depends on Futai to maintain, but I really want to stay in Futai for ten days and a half months."

"Don't dare, I also hope to observe and experience more, if I can make some gains, it will be great." Lao Chongguang has heard rumors in Guangzhou, and there are mixed reviews, but this King Su can pull out an elite army that has won a hundred battles in just a few years.

Ye Zhao smiled again and asked, "Have you ever asked the Queen Mother and the Emperor to say goodbye?" ”

Lao Chongguang's heart was shocked, I was afraid that the words were coming, but I also knew that the affairs of Guangzhou could not be concealed from the master in front of him, and said honestly: "I have already been to Guanyin Mountain." ”

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, and said: "In Yunnan, there are many barbarians around, but now that Zhongzhou is in turmoil, you need to pay more attention, don't be taken advantage of by these barbarians." ”

Lao Chongguang hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, I must be cautious and cautious. ”

In fact, although the Yunnan Green Battalion Regiment said that if the Heping Yuan Army took the battle, it would definitely collapse at the first touch, but if it was said that to deal with the border people, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and other barbarians, there were two Guangdong as the base camp support, it would naturally be more than enough.

Ye Zhao said again: "The previous time the lord of Siam wrote to me for help, now that the Yunnan road has been opened, after a while, I will send an envoy to Siam by land, and the diplomatic relations are friendly. ”

"Yes." Lao Chongguang felt strange in his heart, he didn't know why King Su was interested in these southern barbarians, uncivilized little, what could they encompass?

However, King Su must have a deep meaning in his actions, and he must carefully ponder and ponder after he goes back, and he really doesn't know anything about the customs and customs of these southern barbarians.

After chatting a few more words, when Lao Chongguang retired, Ye Zhao asked people to pass on Bakshi and Ding Qimei.

After a while, Bakshi and Ding Qimei came together, and Bakshi was still a military attache dressed in a coral-topped official hat and embroidered lion uniform, which was in stark contrast to the heroic posture of Ding Qimei, a female officer. The heroic yellow-green uniform military uniform, beret, and riding boots are very suitable for Ding Qimei, and they are delicate and heroic, which reminds Ye Zhao of the beautiful female military spies in later film and television works.

Ye Zhao led the two to the Zhejiang military intelligence map, pointed to the area around the designated sea, and said: "Your goal is here, together with the Marine Battalion, take it for me!" ”

"Wow!" The two of them fell to one knee in unison to receive the order.

Ye Zhao waved his hand and said, "Get up, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask." ”

Bakshi hesitated and said: "The minions are only afraid that there are no guards of the Flying Tiger Battalion in Guangzhou, and if something happens, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate, not to mention that the forbidden army has just been organized, and the minions are also worried that it will be difficult to take on a big job." ”

Ye Zhao nodded slightly: "What you are worried about is that I have transferred two battalions of garrisons to be stationed in Guanyin Mountain, not to mention the patrol of Guangzhou City, I can also trust it, in short, the soldiers are dangerous." You can bring me all the forbidden troops who can go to the battle array, and I am also very relieved to have our Blue Flag Guard warriors as the captains of each team, but you are wronged this time, listen to the command of the seventh sister, she has a lot of experience in surprise attacks and breaking the enemy. ”

Baksh hurriedly bowed and said, "The slave understands. "He has always been guarding the side of the prince, and he has no experience in attacking cities and plundering land, and he is really a layman.

Although he was unwilling, he also knew that this kind of thing was unwilling, so he could only secretly swear in his heart that he would make a name for himself.

Ding Qimei stared at the military map with big eyes, and said thoughtfully: "Master, can't this Ningbo City be touched?" ”

Ye Zhao smiled: "You have to have the ability, I will be happy to take down this Zhejiang Province for me, just be safe, I am afraid that your battle line will be long, you will lose naval support and supplies, and you will be attrition in a vicious battle, you have to remember that the Flying Tiger Battalion is a special force, and the core idea of the operation is strange, and the evil battle is not impossible to fight, but unless necessary, it can be avoided, and every battle will strive for zero casualties for me." ”

"The lowly duty is written!" Ding Qimei bowed her head slightly.

The 800 riflemen of the Flying Tiger Battalion, plus 1,500 of the newly formed Yulin Army, will go north with the sailors and land in Dinghai.

Dinghai and Shanghai across the bay from afar, spontaneously occupied Hangzhou and other state capitals, Dinghai became Shanghai and Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Jiangxi a place of transit, tea and silk want to export from Shanghai Port, must pass through Dinghai, and attacked Dinghai, almost represents Shanghai and the southeast half of the wall since lost contact.

Ding Qimei naturally understood the significance of attacking and occupying Dinghai, staring at the map again and again, the battle of Fangjin was steep, and the battle situation in various places was like chaos, but the prince obviously opened up another world in this chaos, attacked and occupied Dinghai, and the Qing army and Huai army in Fujian and Zhejiang became a rootless source, and the army was in turmoil, and the war situation in Fujian and Zhejiang would immediately become extremely beneficial to the Pingyuan army.

"Master, the slave and maid must hold Dinghai to the death, how many comes, how many slaves and maids kill him!" Ding Qimei's eyes rose a little fanatically.

Ye Zhao smiled, "You, don't think about killing people all day long, it's bloody, you can have less." Looking at the map, he said, "You guys go and prepare." ”

Bakshi and Ding Qimei hurriedly retired, Ye Zhao turned around and picked up a stack of military newspapers on the table again, and studied it carefully against the map.

(To be continued)
