455. 164 Departure to Dongsheng
V Half a month ago, Linyue's 800-mile urgent report mentioned that Linyue had begun to prepare grain and grass everywhere and cast weapons, and it was expected that troops would soon be sent to the Hua Dynasty. Sure enough, only half a month has passed, and they have already begun to act.
It was not different from what she had expected, and the direction in which the Linyue army was advancing at this time was indeed Jizhou City. In addition, there are two other roads, one is from Fusang, Linyue and the intersection of the three kingdoms of the Chinese dynasty. The other is close to Dongsheng, and it is very likely that he wants to use Chu Xuanxiao to reduce the risk of war.
Not only that, but the defense of the border between Linyue and the Chinese Dynasty suddenly increased, and the number of soldiers increased by one to two times at each of the passes adjacent to the Chinese Dynasty. I think it was to avoid the counteroffensive of the Chinese Dynasty after the war was triggered.
She knows all the three people who lead the army, one is Feng Shaoqin, one is Feng Yin, and the other is Sima Fengye, the Great Sima of Linyue.
"There are really three people who are not easy to deal with." Hua Qingmo stared at the bright yellow fold in her hand, and the smile on the corner of her lips was particularly profound and lonely. She casually threw the fold on the low table, and pulled out a crimson embroidered purple peony pillow from a large pile of books.
Hugging the pillow, Hua Qingmo's eyes looked at the fold again, and the bottom of her eyes was extremely dark.
Feng Shaoqin is very smart, so smart that Hua Qingmo feels annoyed. Since he came to the Hua Dynasty, he has never left. His actions these days, Bai Zixiao has been monitored, and Hua Qingmo really wants to praise him for what he has done in the Hua Dynasty.
This person is very good at using the art of war, and knows how to reduce the burden of his own side with the art of war of "taking it for the country and giving food to the enemy". He raised grain and grass and purchased weapons in the Hua Dynasty, which not only reduced the transportation from Linyue to the Hua Dynasty, but also saved time, which can really be described as killing two birds with one stone.
However, he would never have expected that his grain, grass and weapons were all bought from Bai Zixiao.
Feng Yin's person, Hua Qingmo didn't know how he was now. It's just that she is sure that Feng Yin will definitely not be the willful and wanton prince at the beginning. After going through so many things, Fengyin is bound to be difficult to deal with today.
As for Feng Ye, she had only heard some rumors, and she had also had a relationship at the palace banquet in Linyue. He is the adopted son of Feng Yu, and he began to cross the battlefield at the age of fifteen, and he is not an ordinary person.
After thinking about it for a long time, the corners of Hua Qingmo's lips were slightly raised, and the smile on her delicate and elegant face was gentle and quiet, like a clear spring that was not moving. She looked up at Yun Xie who was guarding the side, and her voice was soft: "Yun Xie, the war between Linyue and the Hua Dynasty has nothing to do with us, so I naturally won't intervene." Next, I may need to go to the East Sage, whether the Sixteen Horsemen of the Clouds stay in the Hua Dynasty or go with me to the East Sage, you can choose. ”
Hearing Hua Qingmo's words, Yun Xie knelt down on one knee, his voice respectful but revealing a hint of shallow softness: "Young Master, Youyun Sixteen Cavalry is the ace killer army of the Baili clan, so they naturally follow the Baili clan. Besides, the young master went to Dongsheng this time, and it was inconvenient to follow many people around him, so as not to attract attention. But considering the safety of the young master, it is best to be accompanied by the sixteen horsemen of Youyun. ”
As soon as Yun Xie's words fell, the five people of Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan, Liu Jing, Mo Huai and Mo Bo knelt down on one knee. Immediately, Mo Huai spoke up, and his voice was respectful: "Madam, although what Yun Xie said is reasonable, but the overseer has instructed the five of us to guard by Madame's side." ”
"I think so." Hua Qingmo was not surprised by Mo Huai's words. When she found out that Bai Zixiao did not bring the five of them with her, she guessed that this was the case.
Looking at the six kneeling people in the room, Hua Qingmo fell into deep thought. Her eyes were slightly drooping, and her long eyelashes cast a thick, dark shadow on her eyes.
After a while, Hua Qingmo looked at them again, and her voice remained gentle and calm: "In this case, Mo Huai, the five of you will accompany you, and in addition, the seven people of Yun Xie, Qinghu, Mao'er, Shuhua, Yuyang, Xifeng, and Mianyi can follow." ”
After finishing speaking, Hua Qingmo looked at the cat standing on the side, dressed in a cyan skirt, and said loudly: "Cat, a few days ago, there was a letter from King Liang, one of which was from Princess Xianyu, she complained to me, saying that you sent her back to cheat with fake pills on that day. ”
"She attacked her subordinates, and her subordinates just scared her, what qualifications does she have for revenge?" The cat's tone was respectful and her voice was cold. Then, a trace of fluctuation appeared in her eyes when she looked at Hua Qingmo, as if she had something to say.
However, the cat did not speak, but quickly lowered its head and said nothing, as if it was hesitating.
Seeing the cat's hesitation, Hua Qingmo could guess one or two. She thought for a moment, and then spoke directly: "Cat, let Feng Shuyong follow." ”
"Young master?" When the cat heard this, she immediately looked up at Hua Qingmo, her eyes full of doubts and surprise.
"Cat, I know your concerns. We can't interfere in the problem between you and Feng Shuyong, but it is not certain whether Feng Shuyong is friend or foe, and at this moment, it is best to let him stay in a place where he can be monitored at any time. Hua Qingmo opened her mouth gently, and her eyes were shallow, as if the spring water of bamboo was reflected between the mountain streams. Immediately, her eyes seemed to be dyed with an indelible layer of black, which made people feel cold. "Moreover, he was once used by Wenjing, and I can't trust Wenjing's people."
Hua Qingmo's words made the cat's body stagnate, and her indifferent expression seemed to become in a trance in an instant. Soon, however, she was back to normal.
She nodded, her voice was indifferent, but there was a hint of silence: "The cat understands that the cat can't trust him, let alone the young master." ”
Listening to Mao'er's words, Hua Qingmo just smiled shallowly, her expression and eyes softened a lot compared to just now: "Although I don't trust Feng Shu to use this person, I believe that his feelings for you are not something that anyone can do, and go to protect another person with his life for the sake of one person." ”
Regarding Hua Qingmo's words, the cat did not answer out loud. just slowly lowered his head, and his body looked extremely thin and slender.
Then, Hua Qingmo's gaze turned to Yun Xie, and he commanded in a gentle voice: "Yun Xie, you let the Youyun Sixteen Cavalry temporarily wait in the city closer to the Eastern Saint and Linyue countries, so that both parties can take care of it when the time comes." ”
After finishing speaking, Hua Qingmo looked at Mo Huai and commanded again: "Mo Huai, you pass on my orders to those people who came to Cloud City last time, let them hide in the shadows for the time being, and don't have more right and wrong." Secretly annex the surrounding cities when confronting the Hua Dynasty in Linyue, but let them remember that they can't confront the Korean and Chinese armies at any time. In addition, let the teacher's family, Jinyiwei and Ouchi spy all go to Youzhou. ”
"Yes, young master, the cloud evil obeys."
"Yes, ma'am, my subordinates obey."
After that, Hua Qingmo told them to pack their luggage and prepare to leave here in the evening.
In the middle of the night.
Hua Qingmo stood outside Cloud City, looking back at the raging fire burning in the city, and suddenly understood what Bai Zixiao asked Mo Huai to convey to him.
He said that in half a month, he would burn down a qiē here.
Originally, Hua Qingmo thought that he was talking about those books that recorded the secret techniques of the Ghost Valley, but it was only now that she understood that what Bai Zixiao was going to burn was all the traces of their life in Cloud City.
In doing so, Situ Xuan and the others would know that they had been in Cloud City, but they were completely nowhere to be found. And if they come back to Cloud City again after that, they will definitely not attract attention. Of course, the most important point is that there is a lot of important news left in Cloud City that needs to be destroyed.
"Sister, Mo Mo is asleep." Hua Yuqing spoke, and there was indescribable doting gentleness in her voice. He stood a little behind Hua Qingmo, holding the sleeping Mo Mo in his arms. The firelight reflected the snow-white skin of Momo, like a bewitching blooming red plum, cold and delicate.
"I originally wanted her and Xiaoxiao to follow Acacia to Youzhou, but my sister forgot, Momo, this girl is very sticky to me." Hua Qingmo turned around, her eyes gazing at Mo Mo's sleeping face gently, and her voice was extremely soft. She walked up to Hua Yuqing and took Mo Mo from his arms. Immediately, her gaze turned to Hua Yuqing, and she looked at him with great concentration: "Yuqing, do you really want to be with your sister?" ”
"Well, Brother Yun Xie said that Bailian is not as good as a line, although this will cause trouble to my sister, but Yu Qing can only rely on my sister now." Hua Yuqing spoke calmly, and her words were not at all like a child of his age. He looked at Hua Qingmo, his eyebrows and eyes were warm like a green jade carved mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, so soft, so quiet, so calm.
Looking at Hua Yuqing like this, Hua Qingmo just gently stroked his long hair, and her voice was gentle: "Yuqing, there is no shame in relying on others, what is shameful is to hide under the protection of others forever." Just like lion cubs, they are alive because of the lioness's care. However, over time, they will become the hegemons of one side. ”
"Hehe......" Hua Yuqing couldn't help but smile when he heard Hua Qingmo's words, he held the hand that Hua Qingmo put on his hair, and there was a hint of naughtiness in his voice: "Overlord? Yu Qing doesn't have such high ambitions, I just want to protect my sister. But my sister is so powerful, I'm afraid I can only do useless work for the rest of my life. ”
"You're going to make fun of my sister." Hua Qingmo broke free of her hand and knocked Hua Yuqing lightly. Immediately, she looked at the horses in front of her and the people standing next to her, and her voice was slightly deep: "Let's go, Yuqing." ”
"Yes, sister!"
Hua Qingmo and the others hurried up, and after about ten days, they arrived at the East Customs at the junction of the Hua Dynasty and Dongsheng.
At this time, the news of the invasion of the Chinese Dynasty by the Linyue army had spread throughout the entire Chinese Dynasty, and Situ Xuan sent Chu Yanqian and Situ Yuanche to lead the army to meet the battle. And Feng Zhilan, the fourth princess of Linyue, who was previously named Concubine Lan, had disappeared before the news of Linyue's troops came.
Such a situation is understood by those who should understand. Linyue asked Feng Zhilan to marry the Hua Dynasty, but she just wanted Situ Xuan to let go of her vigilance against Linyue. From the very beginning, they aimed at the world of the Hua Dynasty.
At the same time, Chu Xuanxiao led his ironclad elite cavalry and hundreds of thousands of troops to approach the Eastern Customs.
