The representative of the vassal king's camp, the king of Shu, died, and it became logical to cut the domain. No one dared to speak out against the new emperor's move at the court meeting.

Liu Yue didn't have to go to the court meeting after that, and now he was more concerned about another matter, that is, the whereabouts of Su Zhe, the king of Chu, who had colluded with the king of Shu, in Han Sheng's mouth, but unfortunately, not only the people in the camp of the king of Shu said that they didn't know, but even Han Sheng's own words were ambiguous.

If the scourge of the king of Chu is not eliminated, it is always Liu Yu's heart disease.

Now the three most important things in the court, the war in the north, the cutting of the feudal domain and the big exam, for the time being, Liu Yu has withdrawn from the matter, created evil, and went home to wash away the bad luck of his body, and when he was sleepy, Qi'er came in with a towel to wipe Liu Yu's back.

"Qi'er, why are you here?" Liu Yue was very curious, it stands to reason that Qi'er would not be so sensible, and even the Han sisters were not so knowledgeable.

Sister Xu said...... Yesterday, Qi'er shouldn't have slept by herself, Qi'er did something wrong. ”

Sure enough, it was a good example of a good wife and mother, Liu Yu praised Xu Xuanzhu in his heart, and then asked with a smile: "What else did she tell you?" ”

Qi'er's face was almost red, and she said, "Go back...... Let's talk about it when we go back to our room. ”

Liu Yu nodded, anyway, he had almost washed himself, stood up suddenly, Qi'er's eyes widened, and then he hurriedly took steps and fled back to the room.

Liu Yu got dressed and came out on his own, Xu Xuanzhu came over, smiled at him, and then urged him to accompany Qi'er.

"In broad daylight, isn't it right?"

Liu Yue looked around, and he could see the female guards everywhere, these guards were the most gossipy on weekdays, and the representative of them, Lu Chuer, was unwinded. At this time, Lu Chuer was staring at the door like a paparazzi. She seemed to have sniffed out some gossip.

Xu Xuanzhu saw that Liu Yu just looked at Lu Chu'er and didn't leave. Knowingly nodded. Then he called Lu Chuer to the house, and then the concern of "marrying" and "big girl" made Lu Chu'er stare there.

Liu Yu went to Qi'er's room, and as soon as he entered the room, he found that Qi'er had changed into yesterday's wedding dress, dressed in a dark formal suit, like a mourning dress, which made Liu Yu look unhappy.

"Why are you wearing this?"

"Sister Xu said that she wanted Qi'er to make up a wedding night with Brother Liu."

Liu Yu nodded. Xu Xuanzhu is still thoughtful, yesterday's newlywed was ruined, and he will come again today. After that, do you want to be a bride at any time? It seems a little out of order.

Qi'er has a mother, usually a royal girl with a mother to marry, and the details of the new marriage are told by the mother to the daughter, and the female official is not allowed to ask. But after all, Qi'er's mother Lin Meiren was indifferent and didn't know how to teach her daughter these things, so Qi'er's "enlightenment" work became the responsibility of Xu Xuanzhu.

Liu Yu sat on the chair, and Qi'er worked hard to pinch Liu Yu's shoulders and beat his legs, although he was undisciplined. However, Liu Yu still felt very comfortable. Just as Liu Yue was itching and preparing for the next move, Qi'er suddenly burrowed under the table. began to untie Liu Yu's clothes.

Liu Yu was lamenting that Xu Xuanzhu's education was in place, and he was enjoying it comfortably, but there was an ominous thought in his heart, he knew that Dao Qi'er was a little fetish before, and now he didn't want to let go when he saw her grasping it, and the long-standing worry in his heart was finally confirmed. When Liu Yu reacted and hugged Qi'er to bed, Qi'er reluctantly stretched out her hand, as if her beloved thing had been taken away.

Liu Yu sighed in his heart, it seems that some of them will be busy in the future.

…………

The newcomer welcomes the door, and the old man cannot forget.

In addition to comforting other wives, Liu Yu also went to see Li Shaer. Now Li Sha'er is already slim, in terms of age, she is older than Qi'er and the Han sisters, but she is only one or two years older, and she knows more things in the Qinglou than the wife in Liu Yu's family.

In the past few days, Liu Yu has continued to do nothing.

In addition to continuing to investigate who caused the robbery and explosion in Chang'an City, he is also continuing to track down the whereabouts of the King of Chu.

Sister Liu Jue's marriage is also near, Liu Yu has already found the buyer of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion through Sui Yu, and received the money and only waited for the sister to deliver it after she got married.

The buyer is a big businessman, the official mansion, and it is the residence of the Marquis of Dingguo, which can be said to occupy the official atmosphere, and it is the young eunuch of the Department of Commerce and Trade, and the Marquis of Wuyi personally came forward. The buyer paid twice as much as expected, enough for Liu Yu to buy hundreds of acres of cooked land outside the city.

Liu Yu used the money to buy a field, and on the day of his sister's wedding, he handed over the land deed to his sister as a dowry. In the future, even if Qi Fang likes the new and hates the old, his sister and little nephew will also have a fall, and the little nephew Cao Zhan will not worry about whether he will be a writer or a martial artist in the future.

Seeing April 24, the first list of the imperial examination has just come out on this day, and the city is very lively, whether it is a candidate who has passed or not, he always has to play tricks with his strength, and there are a lot of troubles on the street.

Life is proud and frustrated, the reader is so ambitious, useless is a scholar, the hand is not bound, the chicken has no strength and no ability to carry firewood, it is incompatible with the world, they will not do anything else except reading, so no more, the depression in the heart can be imagined.

For candidates, if they do not make the first list, they may still be re-admitted to the second list, although the chances are slim. Even if it is in the first list, I hope to play well in the palace examination and win the top three in the world.

It was also on this day that Liu Yu saw the first battle report from the border from the military headquarters.

The Great Shun Dynasty and the Turkic War went very smoothly, the Great Shun Dynasty from the three passes to the six road army marched, the final destination is Shaowuguan north of the nine hundred miles of Jinyao City, this Jinyao City is more than 600 years ago in the Central Plains Dynasty a famous anti-Xiongnu general Jin Yao repaired, after the pacification of the Xiongnu, this city in the north for more than 600 years without falling, although at this time Jinyao City has been occupied by the Turks, but it is also the most difficult city of the border trade between the two countries, and it is also the only city under the rule of the Turks.

On the one hand, the struggle for power within the Turks has not yet ended, and without the Khan under the orders of the center, it is difficult to effectively coordinate the various departments to form an effective defense. For the sake of their own interests, all the ministries also had the idea of retreating. Therefore, the advance of the imperial court did not encounter obstacles, that is, it was in the midst of "successive victories".

At least that's what the people in the military department think, thinking that the victory of the imperial court is not far away, and it can even break the Turkic royal court.

Liu Yu was speechless, these people, including Min Shaoqing, ignored an important point, they didn't know where the Turkic royal court was, how could they break it? Now the advance is going well, but the Turks have no losses, the march of the Great Shun Dynasty will accelerate the power struggle of the Turkic high-level to produce results, the Turkic cavalry may be tied in the ravine-covered Central Plains, but in the endless grassland, it is absolutely vigorous and invincible, and Liu Yu is also most worried that Min Shaoqing's division strategy will become a loss of heart.

Everything was as Liu Yu expected.

On April 29, ten days after the start of the war, Liu Yu was taking a nap at home, and Wu Gonggong came to Liu Yu in a hurry, saying that the emperor had something important to meet. After Liu Yu entered the palace, he found that Yuan Bolang, Lan He, and the people from the military department were there, and everyone had anxiety on their faces.

"Master, you're here!"

Liu Yu belongs to the kind of person who is idle at home, he can't be on call, every time he comes, he is almost the last one, except for military affairs, these people generally will not wait for him.

"Your Majesty." Liu Yu glanced at Su Yan, who was full of urgency, and then looked at the expressions of the other ministers, and asked, "What happened?" ”

"Master, something is wrong, something is wrong!" Su Yan said nervously.

As he spoke, Su Yan handed over a battle report from the front to Liu Yu.

The battle report is not troublesome, three things, the first is that the Turks have a new khan, called Dongmao Khan, this name makes Liu Yue feel cautious; Second, the early 20,000 Chinese troops led by Min Shaoqing had already reached Jinyao City, and they took the city without much effort and gained a firm foothold.

The first two things cannot be regarded as urgent, or still a good thing, which proves that the imperial court has marched in moderation. But the third one made Liu Yu look at it with a headache.

The third thing to sum up is that the other Fifth Route Armies did not arrive at Jinyao City on time for different reasons, and then were either blocked or annihilated by the Turkic cavalry, even if there were no losses for the time being, they could not enter the army, and the grassland could not form an effective defense, and two Route Armies had withdrawn to Shaowu Pass.

"How so?" Liu Yu saw that the battle report was not detailed, and looked at everyone and asked.

Qu Zhu, as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, explained, and Liu Yu realized that the Turks had actually set a new khan last month, but it was not announced to the public. It is a pity that the information obtained by the Great Shun Dynasty is inaccurate, and it is thought that the Turks are fighting among themselves and have no time to take care of the war, and the retreat of the southern Turkic tribes at the beginning of the war is only an illusion.

In fact, the most critical factor that made the other Fifth Route Armies of the Great Shun Dynasty not arrive at Jinyao City on time was that the Central Plains people were not accustomed to the water and soil on the grassland.

Direction is the biggest problem, even the guide who leads the way, can not accurately say the location of Jin Yaocheng, these people who go to do business outside the customs, are all crawling to Jin Yaocheng, in the middle to turn back a lot of roads, often find that the wrong way, and then follow the road back, find the right way and then go. And the weather was also one of the reasons, a heavy rain hindered the march of the various armies.

Min Shaoqing immediately ordered to continue to march in the rain, but because the order was not conveyed smoothly on the grassland, the other armies received the order before and after the time difference, and when they reacted, they went to catch up, Min Shaoqing's Chinese army had already traveled for a day or two.

Then there was the sudden nuisance of the Turks, and many tribes that had already retreated, after receiving unified orders, were like eagles on the grassland, blocking the various armies of the imperial court from within the range of 300 miles of Jinyao City, and at the same time, Min Shaoqing's Chinese army cats did not dare to go out of Jinyao City. As a lonely city outside the fortress, there is a lack of water and food around Jinyao City, just like being trapped inside and waiting to die.

If it weren't for the fact that less than half of the army of the Great Shun Dynasty was equipped with new firearms, the first round of the Turkic offensive alone would have wiped out the entire imperial army. However, even so, the imperial army still suffered heavy losses, losing more than 40,000 soldiers and horses.

It has only been ten days since the war began. (To be continued......)
