Su Wan, your blood is my antidote.

This sentence itself was a little ambiguous, but she understood that it could put her to death at any time, no matter how evil he was, her life was more important.

"Ah Cheng, I think you are too deeply poisoned, and you will be delirious and talking nonsense at this time. ”

Breaking his hand, she turned her head away, "I really should go." ”

When she left, he didn't stay, just said something lightly.

"Su Wan, I am a card in Zhao Yu's hand, he will never let me die, but what about you?"

Su Wan really stopped because of this, but she didn't flinch: "I know what you mean, you want to tell Zhou Jinhuan about my tricks on you, and let her attack me, but don't forget, it's easier to kill you now than to kill an ant." ”

"You won't, if you kill me, you will have no value in existence, so to speak, if you kill me, you will also die!" Ah Cheng sat up from the bed, this ten-year-old child has intelligence beyond his age:" You don't understand what I mean, I mean that if you want to die, naturally I don't have any way, you can pull me as a back, but if you want to live, you must pass through me, and I must have the autonomy to report you to Zhou Jinhuan, after you return to her, if I make a move here, you will lose your life, and I am a card in Zhao Yu's hand, he will never let me die, Gu poison In addition to the blood of the person who gave the Gu, there is another solution. ”

Ah Cheng's every sentence is impeccable, Su Wan's death is in her own hands, but life is indeed in Ah Cheng's hands.

"So, what do you want to do?" When Su Wan asked this, her heart was already half cold, and her heart hurt when she thought of her father who died in vain.

"Su Wan, I want you to promise that you will never hurt her. "Zhou Jinhuan is far away in Shuozhou, he has more than enough heart but not enough strength, but Su Wan, as a person close to her, even if she can't help her, don't hurt her thoughts.

"Ah Cheng, do you think she is a fool, if I really have the idea of hurting her, can she keep me until now?" As if hearing something ridiculous, Su Wan smiled.

"Is it, are you so sure that you didn't hurt her?" Ah Cheng whispered softly, Su Wan's smile froze on her face, and she lowered her head and said, "Okay, I promise you, I hope you can do not say much." ”

The two reached an agreement in secret, and Su Wan temporarily detoxified Ah Cheng, and when the matter was done, she went to the palace again.

Zhao Yu has always regarded her as a meticulous work, just asked her to inquire about the news, and was not responsible for other things, and this summons did not have a stick of incense time to let her go back.

Two days after coming to Yecheng, she rode back to Shuozhou with a slightly heavy heart.

Shuozhou at this time is the best time, Xiao Jingzhi has mastered the army, and Zhou Jinhuan can also do a good job of logistics in the Xiao Mansion with peace of mind, but all this beauty is not like that in Su Wan's opinion, according to her judgment, Zhao Yu will definitely not let them go like this, if they are happy, Zhao Yu will be unhappy, and Zhao Yu is not a person who will make him unhappy.

Imagine that the whole world is his, and there are still things he can't do?

Zhao Yu's action came immediately.

Most of the Great Zhao Kingdom is Han Chinese, so they also cultivate for a living, but the Great Zhao State relies on Xianbei, Xianbei lives by water and grass, there is no food in autumn and winter, and the Great Zhao State gives food to Xianbei, and its own survival has become a problem.

When survival is a problem, they have a desire to plunder.

Things didn't start with the Great Zhao State, but the Great Liang State located in the south, and the reason why the Great Liang State sent troops was not to plunder grain, but simply wanted to expand its territory.

As the saying goes, where you fall, you get up from there, and the general sent by the Great Liang State this time was Hu He, who was defeated at the beginning, and the place of attack was also Zhangzhou City.

Zhangzhou City is Xiao Jingzhi's medal, but at this time, Zhangzhou City did not swear to protect it Xiao Jingzhi, only Hu He, who was eager to try it and was bound to win.

Hu He's attack was so sudden that even Zhao Yu was startled, but he has always been good at dealing with emergencies, but his decision made the Manchu civil and military people uneasy: he actually ordered Xiao Jingzhi to relieve the siege of Zhangzhou.

From an economic point of view, Zhangzhou City pays much more taxes to the central government every year than Shuozhou, and the two cities are not a heavyweight at all; but in terms of geographical location, Shuozhou City is located on the border of Dayan and Dazhao, and borders the Xianbei Dynasty to the north, and this sensitive geographical location is definitely much more important than Zhangzhou City.

Abandoning Shuozhou to save Zhangzhou, this deal seems to be too cost-effective, right?

"Jingzhi, Shuozhou and Zhangzhou are far apart, Zhangzhou is now besieged, I'm afraid that when you arrive in Zhangzhou, what awaits you is only Hu He's sharp knife, Zhao Yu obviously wants your life!" Zhou Jinhuan looked at the edict, his face was ugly, Xiao Jingzhi just looked at the edict, and did not speak, she stepped forward and saw an important sentence, and her anger was a little uncontrollable: "Zhao Yu, what does he mean?"

Both of them saw the sentence in the edict: Mrs. is not allowed to join the army.

"Jin Huan, after I leave, I will let Zhang Zilang and Big Brother Hei live in our mansion temporarily, you don't have to worry, wait for me at home, as long as you are in the Xiao Mansion, you will be fine......"

Xiao Jingzhi hugged her in his arms, she couldn't see his expression, she only felt a slight coldness in her neck: "Jin Huan, you have to wait for me with peace of mind, at least ten days and half a month, at most three or two months, I will definitely come back, I promise you." ”

"No, you're not by my side, I always feel uneasy, you clearly promised me that you will take me with you no matter what you do in the future, you obviously promised my ......" She always felt that in this battle of Zhangzhou City, he was more than lucky, so she was very scared.

"Well, madam, I'll be sorry again, and I'll be with you when I get back, okay?" he put his arm around her, and tightened it tighter, his hands trembling.

Xiao Jingzhi is also a human being, he should also be afraid, he is afraid of Hu He who comes to revenge with a strong hatred, and he is also afraid that Zhou Jinhuan who is not by his side will be in danger, he is afraid!

"Jing Zhi, you believe me, right?" Zhou Jinhuan sensed his fear, but calmed down, gently pushed him away, brushed his eyes with his hand, and lightly printed a kiss: "Since it is the emperor's order, then you can go with peace of mind, don't worry, no matter what others say, no matter what rumors are unfavorable to me, you must believe in my ability, my ability to turn evil into good fortune, don't be distracted for me, just come back well, remember that I am waiting for you in Xiao Mansion." ”

She didn't want to let herself be his weakness, it was very dangerous to go to Zhangzhou, he could only use all his energy on Hu He, in fact, Hu He was not an easy person to deal with.

"Okay, I promise you. Xiao Jingzhi kissed her lips gently, with a smile like a breeze on the corner of her mouth, she gently lay on his chest and closed her eyes slightly.

Their farewell was very short, and the day of farewell was the same good weather as the day they left Yecheng.

The send-off personnel included Zhang Zilang, Hei Asan, Zheng and his wife, Cao Ming and Fan Zhi.

Xiao Jingzhi had already instructed Zhang Zilang and Hei Asan for a long time, and he didn't say much when he said goodbye, but just put his fist on his head, and there was no exception for Cao and Fan.

"Madame, I'm leaving. "He did not wear the white garment they had seen for the first time, but the black, and he was on his way in a hurry.

"Go early and come back early, and when you come back, I'll make you sweet and sour tenderloin." She tiptoed, whispered in his ear, and tilted her head: "Did you bring the silk handkerchief?"

He smiled, and it was a very cheerful smile, a smile that she was obsessed with.

"The silk handkerchief embroidered by the lady herself should naturally be carried with her. ”

He took out the silk handkerchief embroidered with his name from his sleeve, and she also pulled out her own silk handkerchief, and her voice was a little unsteady: "These days, you will fight well, don't think about me, and when you come back triumphantly, you will miss me tenfold and hundredfold, you know?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Xiao Jingzhi finally hugged her, got on the horse sideways, and waved at the crowd: "This Shuozhou depends on you, and Jinhuan ......."

His eyes were fixed on her for a moment, and then he rode away.

Only then did she realize that he was really leaving, ran after his horse, and waited until she had no strength before stopping, shouting at his back: "Xiao Jingzhi promised me to come back, you are a man's husband, if you don't keep the contract, I will definitely not let you go!"

I don't know why the autumn sun is so strong, she feels a little sore pain in her eyes, and when she was about to reach out to block the sun, suddenly there was a shadow above her head, she looked at Xiao Jingzhi who came back from riding a horse in some disbelief, and she didn't know what to say for a while, just looked at him stupidly, covered her lips, shed tears, and muttered his name in her mouth: "Xiao Jingzhi, Xiao Jingzhi, Xiao Jingzhi......"

He took her in his arms, lifted her to the horse, kissed her more and more tears, and said softly: "Zhou Jinhuan, I promised to come back well, and you also promised me to wait for me to come back obediently in Xiao Mansion, you know?"

"Okay, I promise you. Obviously I thought about it from the beginning, don't see him off with tears, but in the end I cried in front of him, she felt that she was useless.

He habitually rubbed her hair, picked her off the horse, and smiled at her: "I watched you walk back. ”

"Okay, the last thing I should do right now is tie you down. She agreed, she did go back, but backwards, in order to look at him a few more times, but in the end, his figure became more and more blurred, and finally became a small dot, his Jingzhi, his husband, was gone.

"Look, don't go back, everyone else is gone. Before they could speak, she spoke first, but her head was lowered, for fear they would see her red and swollen eyes.

"Jinhuan, you ......" and a few men exchanged glances, Rujin quickly caught up with her, she didn't object, but she didn't speak, the two sat in the carriage together, only Rujin was talking comforting words.

"Rujin, I'm a little dizzy at this moment, and I want to rest for a while. Her refusal was very tactful, Rujin wanted to say something, but as soon as she said this, she could only be silenced.

"Mrs. Zheng should go home, what my wife needs most now is rest. As soon as he got out of the carriage, Zhou Jinhuan gave Su Wan a look, Su Wan said what she said, but Rujin did not accept it: "I have already agreed with my husband, I will rest in Xiao Mansion in the past few days, Jinhuan, you don't really want to drive me away, do you?"

Well, if she wants to stay, let's stay.

For several days after Xiao Jingzhi left, Zhou Jinhuan's mood was very low, although she said that she didn't need to be accompanied, but Rujin was by her side, which was somewhat comforting to her.

After she finally came out of the depression of Xiao Jingzhi's departure, something happened in Shuozhou: the Great Zhao State sent people to attack her!

The Great Zhao Congress sent troops to attack Shuozhou, which is something that everyone knows well.

The Great Zhao Congress took advantage of Hu He's attack on Zhangzhou City to carry out a surprise attack, which is something that many people know well.

But no one would have thought that their movements would be so fast, starting before Zhou Jinhuan had completely come out of the loss.

There are only a dozen states and counties in the Great Zhao Kingdom, but this does not mean that their combat effectiveness is very weak, on the contrary, they are not weak.

"Da Zhao Guo is taking advantage of people's danger, and it is a little too shameless. Rujin has been in Shuozhou for many years, and he has no good impression of the Great Zhao State, and Zhou Jinhuan said a fair word: "The Great Zhao State and the Great Liang State are so far away, although the Great Yan is fighting on two fronts, it is not too much of a loss, after all, the two countries cannot be attacked, and now it is the former Cao and Cao who are guarding Shuozhou. Fan and the two, and even more big brother Hei and Zhang Zilang, and although the siege of Zhangzhou City lost the time and place, the people of Zhangzhou City have a good impression of Jingzhi, and their concerted efforts are very strong, and they occupy people, and the time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people, and theoretically Jingzhi still has the advantage. ”

"Since you are so good at analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the battlefield, why have you been crying for so many days?" Rujin replied unceremoniously, which made Zhou Jinhuan a little unable to catch it.

The development of the battlefield was far from what she thought, on the contrary, no matter how well the soldiers of Shuozhou practiced, they could not compare to the cavalry of the Great Zhao State.

Those cavalry were completely trained according to the Xianbei Dynasty, and were equipped with Xianbei high-headed horses, and the horses of the nomads had always been superior to the horses of the Central Plains, which was a congenital defect and could not be made up for at all.

"Have they thought of a countermeasure?" Zhou Jinhuan did not go to the barracks, these news were all told to her by Rujin, and most of Rujin's news also came from Zheng Liu.

"Our war horses in the Central Plains are not as powerful as Xianbei's war horses, what can be done about this, they probably think more about improving their weapons, after all, the gap between Xianbei children and us in terms of weapons is quite obvious. ”

Rujin's idea is quite good, but the war horse is flexible, and the weapon is dead, so it must be difficult to restrain the living with the dead, right?

Is there no other way?
