Before dawn comes, the darkest hour of the night.

At the end of the sky, a bright royal blue star hung high.

It was so bright that the stars around it were eclipsed.

Standing by the window, looking up at the morning star at the end of the sky, Liu Wei took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.

"Your Highness!" As he stared at the night sky, a soft call came from behind him.

Cai Yan, who had fluffy hair and a little tiredness on his face, gently clasped his loose collar with both hands, and walked lightly behind Liu Wei.

"Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, Your Highness should rest in peace earlier!" Standing behind Liu Wei, Cai Yan reminded him softly.

After drinking with Liu Xie until late at night, Liu Wei came to Cai Yan's bedroom.

thought that after some upside down, he would sleep sweeter, but for some reason, it was difficult to sleep no matter what.

It was really difficult to sleep, so he had to get up and walk to the window, look at the night sky outside the window, and think about something that seemed to be out of the way.

"Akihime go to sleep first!" Looking up at the sky, Liu Wei said softly: "I don't know why, this king is not tired at all!" ”

"Your Highness just has too many obstacles in his heart!" didn't turn around and go back to sleep, Cai Yan said softly: "If His Highness is worried about the obstacles in his heart, how about the concubine as His Highness strokes the qin?" ”

"Very good!" Looking back at Cai Yan, Liu Wei said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Zhao Ji strokes the qin, it will definitely make the obstacles in this king's heart disappear!" ”

"Someone!" With Liu Wei's promise, Cai Yan called outside.

Every night, two maids are guarded outside the door of the inner room.

Hearing Cai Yan's greeting, one of the maids entered the house, folded her hands in front of her, and quietly waited for her instructions.

"Put the princess's piano in the courtyard!" After giving an order to the maid, and when the maid left, Cai Yan said to Liu Wei: "The night is dark, although it is deeper and heavier, if you stroke Yaoqin in the courtyard, it will have a different taste." The concubine is good at making claims, and I hope that His Royal Highness will not be strange! ”

"Zhao Ji is a talented woman!" With a smile on his face, Liu Wei slowly nodded his head and said: "Talented women are always different from ordinary people, more deeply exposed, and playing the piano in the courtyard is even more funny, how can this king blame Zhao Ji!" ”

"Let's go, go to the courtyard with this king!" Stopping Cai Yan's shoulder, Liu Wei greeted softly.

Cai Yan didn't put on palace clothes, but just wore the clothes he wore when he sleek, and he argued with Liu out of the inner room.

Dawn is approaching, and the night is very dark.

When the two of them walked into the courtyard, although they were followed by two maids with lamps in their hands, it was still dark in front of them.

Under the guidance of the maid, Liu Wei and Cai Yan walked to the low table placed in the courtyard.

After saluting Shi Ran to Liu Wei, Cai Yan asked softly: "Does Your Highness listen to the piano on one side, or sit with the concubine?" ”

"You and I sit together!" Smiling slightly, Liu Wei helped her sit down on the cushion next to the low table.

The cushion spread next to the low table was slightly larger than the usual cushion, and after Cai Yan sat down, Liu Wei knelt behind her, which was just enough for the two of them to sit properly.

Surrounded by Liu Bian, Cai Yan raised her hand and gently plucked the strings twice, and when the strings sounded trembling, she turned back to Liu Bian and smiled and asked, "I don't know Your Highness, what do you want to hear?" ”

"How about Zhao Ji playing a song with eighteen beats?" With his arms gently wrapped around Cai Yan's chest, Liu Wei whispered: "Since Zhao Ji made this song, this king has not listened to it yet!" ”

"Hu Ji eighteen beats, because the Huns entered our Central Plains, and the concubine body was grateful for the suffering of the people." Snuggled in Liu Wei's arms, Cai Yan said softly: "This tune is too sad, His Royal Highness is not very happy in his heart, listening to it at this time, but something is wrong?" ”

"But whatever Zhao Ji plays, there is nothing wrong!" Shaking his head, Liu Wei put his hands on Cai Yan's chest and said to her: "This king is in the middle of an obstacle, but it's not that his mood is not high, Zhao Ji just plays the music, don't worry too much!" ”

His chest was hugged by him, and Cai Yan only felt that her two palms were pressing on her twin peaks, which were not very large.

Pursing her lips and answering softly, she pressed her hands on Yaoqin.

The slender ten fingers gently played, and with her playing, a song with a strong pathos but melodious and gentle song floated in the night.

The tune is soft, and in the quiet of the night, when you listen carefully, it is unusually clear.

Holding Cai Yan in her arms, Liu Wei put his chin on her shoulder.

Listening to the melodious tune, he didn't make a sound, and he didn't make half a superfluous movement.

When the Huns entered the Central Plains, there were still few soldiers and horses under his command.

On the same day, the Xiongnu were defeated, although they had the intention to annex them, but the soldiers and horses in Liu Wei's hands were insufficient.

If the persecution is tight, and the Huns will make trouble again, he will definitely be in a hurry and difficult to deal with.

Leaving Liu Jian in the court of the Xiongnu and putting him in the position of Da Dan Yu, Liu argued that once the strength was enough in the future, he would completely eliminate this perennial wandering in the north and bringing deep suffering to the Central Plains.

No genocide was adopted, he simply led the Huns to the Central Plains.

When the Xiongnu got married, they must have to intermarry with the Han people.

Since the Xiongnu entered the Central Plains, Liu Wei issued a strict order, prohibiting intermarriage within their clan.

So back and forth, but for three generations, the Xiongnu in the territory of the Han Dynasty will disappear completely!

In front of Liu Wei, in addition to accepting Chan and ascending to the throne, there are also the Gongsun family in Liaodong, Cao Cao, who was defeated and retreated to Liaodong, and Wuhuan, Xiliang and other places that need to be pacified.

The north is uneven, and it is difficult for the army to go south!

There are many heroes, and what is in front of him is just a mess that is difficult to clean up.

Listening to Cai Yan's Yaoqin, Liu Wei's consciousness drifted far to the north.

Cai Yansu stroked his hands, plucked the strings, and played the sad tune "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji".

The maid who served Cai Yan had more contact with her on weekdays, and she had cultivated some talent.

Listening to the music she played, the maids raised their arms one by one and gently wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.

They had not experienced the war of the Huns invading the Central Plains, but listening to the sad tune played by Cai Yan, their hearts were as if they were hindered by something.

Letting go of the arm holding Cai Yan, Liu Wei stood up, put his hands behind his back, took two steps to the side, and looked up at the sky.

The morning star was a little dimmer than before, and the eastern sky was already faintly white.

Another dawn is coming!

Cai Yan behind him was still stroking Yaoqin, and the sound of the piano echoed in Liu Wei's ears, but in his heart, he was thinking about many things that he would deal with at the moment.

When he fled from Luoyang in the early years, although he had few soldiers and horses under his command, he only needed to lead the army to fight and gradually encroach on the surrounding forces.

Now with hundreds of thousands of troops, he has to face more complex things than then.

"Millions of male soldiers have passed five levels, and the horse rank ring is at the source of the three rivers!" Looking up at the sky that was already a little bright, Liu Wei read leisurely: "Back then, I raised my arms and raised my arms, and I came to Japan to pay for Jinluan!" ”

Hearing this, Cai Yan's fingers trembled slightly.

The fingers shook slightly, and the strings fluttered a little differently than usual.

Hearing a slight difference from her piano rhythm, Liu Wei's eyelids lowered slightly, raised his hand and said to her: "Zhao Ji doesn't need to play, the sky is gradually getting brighter, you and I should go back to the room to rest!" ”

"No!" In response, Cai Yan let go of his hand playing Yaoqin, stood up, and quietly waited for Liu Wei to enter the house.

Liu Wei had something on his mind and didn't sleep all night.

When he hugged Cai Yan and fell asleep, on the top of Song Mountain, Wang Liu had already gotten up early.

The left-handed sword that Nameless had studied was completely different from what she had imagined before practicing.

Unless left-handed, ordinary people use their left hand, which is somewhat awkward, and the force is definitely not as good as that of the right hand.

Originally, when practicing left-handed swords, he should abandon his strength and focus on lightness, but the nameless swordsmanship did not take the route of lightness, but opened and closed widely, and the momentum was extremely powerful.

Wang Liu, who got up early in the morning, went out of the room, held the sword in his left hand, made a starting gesture, and danced.

Twelve guards lined up on either side, looking at Wang Liuwujian without blinking.

The two maids were busy making a fire and preparing meals for everyone.

On the roof of the house, Nameless sat with one leg bent and very leisurely, with a green blade of grass in his mouth.

His tongue kept spinning against the blades of grass, looking at Wang Liu dancing with a sword, and the corners of his nameless mouth always had a faint smile.

After all, Wang Liu is a famous swordsman, she is not a blank sheet of paper to be smeared, she has her own swordsmanship routines.

I had fought with her before, and Nameless also knew that Wang Liu's swordsmanship was not as light as an ordinary female swordsman.

In her swordsmanship routines, strength often occupies an extremely important position.

Although this set of left-handed swords was his original, what could be taught to Wang Liu was not the original, but he had made some modifications.

According to Wang Liu's previous swordsmanship, after teaching her, Wang Liu mastered it very quickly, but in just two days, the long sword was swept by the tiger she danced with her left hand.

"Come, accompany General Ben to practice swords!" The sword in her left hand was already quite skillful, and Wang Liu's self-confidence gradually recovered, and she danced a set of routines, and after she closed her momentum, she pointed at a guard standing on the side with the tip of her sword, and greeted the guard.

The guard barely delayed, drew his long sword, and rushed forward to meet Wang Liu.

Seeing that the guard rushed towards Wang Liu, the corner of the nameless mouth sitting on the roof pulled a faint smile, and he snorted lightly in his nose.

The palace guards are all superb in swordsmanship, but they are only for ordinary soldiers.

If they were to compete with the swordsman, they wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.

As soon as the guard made a move, Nameless had already seen the victory or defeat, so he snorted lightly.

Rushing towards Wang Liu with a sword in one hand, the long sword in the guard's hand slammed forward, piercing Wang Liu's heart.

Wang Liu didn't dodge, his right hand was behind his back, his left hand slashed a semicircle, the long sword stirred, and then slashed against the long sword stabbed by the guard.
