Chapter 420: Carry forward
The exterminator nodded slowly, "That's the best." Closing his eyes, the exterminator remembered something at this time, opened his eyes, and a trace of melancholy flashed on his face, "This year's martial arts conference, we are Emei, I'm afraid there is no way to get ahead!" ”
Among the major sects, the head of Wudang died, but there were still more than a dozen brothers waiting for the top, but on Emei's side, in addition to exterminating Shitai, the only powerful point was Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo's swordsmanship can be regarded as the second below the master in Emei, but when competing with the major masters, it is far, far behind.
Zhou Zhiruo knew that the prestige of the martial arts alliance leader and even Emei was very important to the master, and seeing the master's expression in front of him, when Zhou Zhiruo was hit, he also gritted his teeth, and said stubbornly and resolutely, "Master, the apprentice will work hard!" ”
"You?" The exterminator glanced at Zhou Zhiruo sideways, and said mercilessly, "I'm afraid that under other masters, you won't be able to pass five moves!" ”
Zhou Zhiruo bit her lip, but nodded stubbornly, "The apprentice will work hard!" Starting tomorrow, get up early to practice! ”
If Zhou Zhi has this kind of thought, it is of course good, at the beginning, she was a weak woman who was despised by others, didn't she also rely on hard work and hard work to achieve Emei?
The exterminator looked at Zhou Zhiruo with great relief, then patted Zhou Zhiruo's little hand and said, "Master, here you are, it's absolutely right!" If you are angry, the master will be at ease! And the woman who poisoned the master, will you help the master avenge it? ”
"Yes!" Zhou Zhiruo nodded affirmatively, that day, the appearance of the mysterious black-clothed man and the little Lori was a day that subverted Zhou Zhiruo's thoughts, not only was his master put down by one hand, but the arrogant and arrogant head of Wudang, who was admired and turned away many scholars, was hacked to death on the spot.
Those two, no matter who they were, their enmity with Emei was concluded. "The disciple is now practicing martial arts for only two things, first, to carry forward Emei; Second, avenge the master! ”
Extinction raised the corners of his mouth and smiled with relief, and then closed his eyes, and fell asleep in Zhou Zhiruo's massage with peace of mind, and a generation of simple and lovely women Zhou Zhiruo, because of her master's stubbornness, is going to become cruel and ruthless, all of this is caused by the moon, and the night is too beautiful and gentle......
In the first battle in the Northeast, An Lushan wanted to pick up the rebel soldiers, but none of them were wiped out, and the heavy rain fell for two consecutive days, and during this time, the rain finally stopped.
It's just that the ground is still full of stagnant water and mud, and Mei Niang's army marched back to Hebei Province with great difficulty, without stopping along the way, and it looked like it was about to return to the capital.
Mei Niang sat in the carriage, still wearing armor, but she frowned, "In the past few days, no one in the capital has written to me to report, what is going on?" ”
"Maybe Zhuge Wo Silkworm marched to the gate of the capital and waited outside, maybe...... The capital has been attacked by Zhuge Lying Silkworms, and your people can't give you news. Han Hanzheng, who said the two possibilities, was lying comfortably on Mei Niang's lap, Mei Niang squinted her eyes and thought deeply, these two situations are indeed possible.
The former is fine, the latter is ...... That's not good!
Wu Meiniang's army entered Chengde County, and dared to go for a day and a night, and at night, stationed five or six miles away from the capital, the sky was dark, not suitable for marching, the only few thousand soldiers camped, each hid in the tent to rest, and Mei Niang, naturally, slept with Han Han and the Queen Mother.
After arranging the number of soldiers patrolling at night, Mei Niang returned to the tent and saw that the body of the Queen Mother, who exuded mature charm, was already asleep in Han Han's arms.
Han Han, who was lying on the bed covering the quilt, held the queen mother's waist with one hand, and when she saw Mei Niang coming in, Han Han grinned, "In the past few days, she hasn't slept well." ”
The 'she' in Han Han's mouth refers to the Queen Mother, on the way back, the Queen Mother is faintly worried about Zhuge Lying Silkworm and the capital, with confidence, the Queen Mother believes that as long as there are people under Zhuge Sleeping Silkworm, then this wonderful old man will definitely regain the country for himself.
However, what if Zhuge Lying Silkworm did not raise an army to subdue the capital? The queen mother is about to abdicate, so that Wu Meiniang will become the female emperor completely, and after she loses her identity as the queen mother, no one will pay attention to her anymore.
Besides, if Zhuge Wo Silkworm has now invaded the capital, and even controlled the rebels in the entire capital, then this is a good thing, this time, Mei Niang is really only the remnants of the defeated generals, only a few thousand people, how can they get the court?
At that time, the prestige of the royal family of the Cao Dynasty was newly held in her hands, and the Queen Mother was still the Queen Mother, the woman of the first emperor, and the queen mother of the emperor, but in this way, the Queen Mother couldn't let go of Han Han again.
Between the left and right, it is difficult to choose, the Queen Mother has been preoccupied and depressed in the past few days, and Mei Niang also knows it.
Smiling indifferently, Mei Niang slowly took off the armor on her body and put it neatly at the head of the bed, and then climbed into Han Han's quilt in thin obscene clothes, "If the Queen Mother is not so persistent, she will not have so many troubles, if Zhuge Lying Silkworm really helped her regain the capital, at that time, the officials of the world must have fallen to her side again, supporting the Queen Mother to recruit me as a thief, at that time, the emperor's position is not important, as long as she is willing to send troops to station in Xiliang, then I have nothing to worry about." ”
Han Han nodded slowly, thinking about this messy world affairs, his head was groggy and uncomfortable, "However, according to the character of Old Man Zhuge Zhuge , he will not sit idly by, maybe the capital has really been recaptured by him." ”
Mei Niang's body tensed, and then she squinted her eyes and frowned, "If Zhuge Lying Silkworm occupies the capital, then his next step ......"
Thinking about it carefully, Mei Niang was startled, immediately sat up from the bed, and then ran outside while wearing armor, "Something is wrong!" I'm going to put the soldiers on guard! ”
"No need to bother, haha." A vicissitudes of laughter sounded, Han Han smiled stunned, the appearance of Zhuge Lying Silkworm was really unexpected.
Thinking that he was still holding the Queen Mother, Han Han pushed her with some palpitations, and then jumped up and ran to another bed.
At this moment, the figure of Zhuge Lying Silkworm appeared in the tent, and behind him, there were more than a dozen soldiers of the Cao Dynasty, "Those soldiers of yours have fallen asleep with drugs, and no one is injured in old decay, so it is a good thing to arrest you!" ”
Four hundred and seventy-seven chapters of reward
The bright-eyed Zhuge Lying Silkworm smiled calmly, waved the goose feather fan that had been dried in his hand, and saw the Queen Mother who had just opened her eyes from sleep on the bed, Zhuge Lying Silkworm was stunned for a moment, and then waved her hand and said, "The Queen Mother is sleeping here, and you still don't quit, so recklessly, beware of treating you as offended." ”
In fact, the soldiers behind didn't see the Queen Mother's beautiful sleeping posture much, because Zhuge Lying Silkworm didn't look old, but his body was not small, and he blocked their sight all of a sudden, and he didn't see anything.
Several people hurriedly withdrew, but Mei Niang drew her sword from the table next to her, held it in her hand, and stared coldly at Zhuge Lying Silkworm, "Your people have left this tent, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" ”
"You can't!" Zhuge Lying Silkworm smiled calmly, looked at Wu Meiniang who was holding the long sword with a sinister face, and smiled, as if she didn't look at the sharp long sword in her hand, "You have the ability, you come to cut me!" ”
"Look for death!" This seventy or eighty old man embarrassed himself everywhere, Mei Niang had already treated him as a mortal enemy, but remembering that he was Han Hanru's brother and friend, Mei Niang decided to just scare and scare him, holding the sword and taking three steps, Mei Niang's eyes were dark at this time, and a dizzy feeling hit her heart, and then, Mei Niang was about to fall to the ground.
It was still Zhuge Lying Silkworm who was quick and prepared, stretched out his hand to support Mei Niang, and then pulled her back to the bed.
smiled and looked at the queen mother who was wearing a quilt on the bed and still had a shocked expression, Zhuge Lying Silkworm made a move, and then said, "Zhuge Lying Silkworm is fortunate not to be dishonored, as a person from the Cao Dynasty, he saved the royal family of the Cao Dynasty and returned to the capital." ”
"Good!" With a melancholy smile in her eyes, the Queen Mother looked sideways at Han Han on the side, and then was silent, and only after a moment did she raise her head and say to Zhuge Lying Silkworm, "Mr. Zhuge has made great contributions to the Cao Dynasty, and when the mourning family returns to the capital, he will be rewarded immediately." ”
"One more thing, I hope the Queen Mother doesn't mind." Zhuge Lying Silkworm waved the goose feather fan, and his expression that had been calm was a little apprehensive, the Queen Mother was strange, tilted her head slightly, and said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"The capital and the palace are almost in tatters, I hope the Queen Mother will not blame, because everything is for the tribe...... For the sake of the Cao Dynasty. ”
Zhuge Lying Silkworm pinched a pill between his fingers, and when this pill was crushed and the smell wafted out and was smelled, it was already poisoned.
Mei Niang fell in three steps, and because of this, she handed the Queen Mother and Han Han the antidote, Zhuge Lying Silkworm waved her hand, and the group escorted these thousands of Xiliang soldiers on the way back.
When he returned to the capital, he sat on the boat, looking at the capital, which had become an ocean and even full of miserable monotony, the Queen Mother laughed angrily, and did not pursue the meaning of Zhuge Lying Silkworm, and a group of people returned to the palace, looking at this familiar and unfamiliar place, the Queen Mother was melancholy for a while.
The gold and silver items in the palace have been washed away by the flood, and only the high-walled and deep courtyard of the house is left, which looks much empty.
"Welcome the Queen Mother back to the court!" When she sat on the Xuanzheng Hall full of fishy smell again, looking at a group of local generals who had not appeared for a long time, and now they had only come to the fore when they returned, the Queen Mother smiled again, these people, are they really stupid to mourn the family?
The capital has to travel by boat for a few days, and of course, there are a few chic guys who swim around in the already calm water, treating the capital as a small lake.
Most of the soldiers who rebelled against Mei Niang had been killed, including those who had surrendered before, and they were all wiped out by Zhuge Lying Silkworm.
The turmoil in the Cao Dynasty seemed to have calmed down in this winter, and they did not punish the generals who did not save them when they saw death, and even the Queen Mother gave them a few hundred taels of silver each, saying that they had the merit of exterminating the thieves.
Do they have it? No! They know it themselves, and the Queen Mother knows it! But when they received the hundreds of taels of silver, they were even more frightened than being punished, their hearts were weak, and they felt guilty, so that these generals did not dare to say anything, hurriedly retreated, and after running back home from the palace, they wiped their sweat worriedly, "Lao Tzu almost lost his life!" You can't do such stupid things in the future! ”
The people and even officials all over the world learned that the Queen Mother, who had been taken hostage, suddenly returned to the palace to regain power, and officials large and small had their own careful thoughts and prepared to write letters to the Queen Mother, which was nothing more than flattering greetings.
On the first day of return, the Queen Mother did not seem very happy, after sending away such a group of hypocritical ministers, leaving the Xuanzheng Palace, the Queen Mother slowly walked to the imperial study, in this imperial study, but Han Han and Emperor Tang Wen were full of memories.
In addition to the guards, there is not a single eunuch or palace maid in the palace now. Pushing open the bleak door, looking at the damp wooden table with its feet facing the sky and the carpet washed into the corner, the Queen Mother smiled again.
Standing in a daze, the Queen Mother squinted at all this and said, "The world is hot and cold, don't go through a difficulty, it's a pity not to understand this throne!" ”
Han Han, who had been quietly following the Queen Mother, just smiled faintly and didn't speak, the kind of loneliness and loneliness on the Queen Mother infected Han Han, thinking that there was no one around the Queen Mother except herself, this kind of taste was really pitiful.
"Mei Niang has been imprisoned in prison." The Queen Mother turned her back to Han Han and said, Han Han nodded quietly, and the Queen Mother couldn't see the complicated color on his face, "Yes, the knife is fish." ”
"She committed such a heinous crime of treason, it stands to reason that she should be punished by the Nine Clans." The Queen Mother finally glanced sideways at Han Han at this time, and when she saw Han Han's calm gaze looking directly at her, the Queen Mother turned her head back, she couldn't bear to look directly.
"You say, what should the mourning family do with her?" almost snatched away his own country, which made the queen mother even more insecure, and her graceful and elegant side face was presented in front of Han Han, Han Han pursed his lips and smiled, his smile was a little helpless, "She said that if she loses, this country will be returned to you." ”
"But who knows if there's a next time?" The Queen Mother bit her ruddy lip, thinking about it, but she still couldn't help but say the sentence in her heart.
Han Han was very straightforward, smiled inexplicably, and asked, "You want to sentence her to death?" The Queen Mother turned her head and looked resentful, "You know, the mourning family attaches great importance to the country, especially Wu Meiniang, she once snatched it away, how can you let the mourning family rest assured?" ”
"So what do you mean? Or do you want to betray her for capital crimes? Don't look at Han Han's calm surface, but his heart is very worried, the Queen Mother didn't speak, just quietly looked at this messy imperial study, how many famous paintings and poems were washed away by this flood? It's a shame that I didn't stay.
In the prison, when Mei Niang opened her eyes, she saw Han Han sitting in front of her, Mei Niang's head rested on Han Han's lap sitting cross-legged, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Han Han's manly side face.
