Chapter 167: War in the Northwest

Following Mo Lost's gaze, Duanmu Qing really saw a few people who didn't look like Xiqi standing not far away and talking.

The reason why it is certain that these people are not Xiqi people is because their appearance is obviously special to everyone.

But it is clear that in this place, no one cares.

As soon as I rounded a rockery, I heard a groan that made people blush and heartbeat.

Duanmu Qing suddenly stopped, frowned slightly, and turned in another direction without thinking about it.

Mo lost and said, "It's the third miss." ”

Hearing this, he immediately stopped and looked over there.

The turquoise shirt half-faded at the waist, the hairpin that kept shaking with the crazy movements of the two, and the face with the eyes closed.

All of them confirm Mo Loss's statement.

However, the man who pressed Duanmu Bi on the rockery, Duanmu Qing didn't recognize it.

The place was so chaotic that you couldn't find anything when you came in.

And the key is that Duanmu Qing really doesn't like the atmosphere here, so he couldn't help frowning: "Let's go back first." ”

Don't know what she was thinking, and no longer hesitate, the two of them went to the place where they had just entered.

As he was walking, he suddenly noticed that the person sitting and playing the piano on the other side seemed to be somewhat familiar.

After looking closely, Duanmu Qing recognized it.

There, it was the top brand that I saw in the Shenyu Pavilion that day.

Didn't she enter the Three Kings' Mansion?

How did you end up here?

couldn't help but look back at Duanmu Bi again.

In this place, so far, she and Chu Chu are the only two people they know.

Don't......

Coming out of that strange courtyard, Mo Lost directly sent Duanmu Qing to the gate of Liuqingzhu, and then turned around and went back to the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

But Han Lingyan hadn't slept yet, and was still waiting for her quietly in the room.

still didn't ask where to go, only said lightly that he was back, which was regarded as a greeting.

Day and night, the aura that emanates between them is completely different.

Because of the emperor's illness, the atmosphere in the entire court hall became even more weird.

After half a month, everyone seems to be a little anxious, and everyone's hearts seem to be tense.

It seems that as long as you gently flirt, there is a danger of madness.

And this heart-tugging hand suddenly appeared.

A small city in the northwest was suddenly attacked by inexplicable forces.

Because of the rapid attack, the border guards did not have any preparation, and they immediately collapsed.

And the army that doesn't know the origin of the army is quite a bit broken by its sharp spirit.

When the information reached Tianjing, the government and the opposition were shocked.

It has been a long time since Dongli reached an agreement with Xiqi more than a decade ago, and Xiqi has not been at war.

What's more, the emperor was still lying on the bed at this time, and there was a feeling that the house was leaking and it was raining overnight.

Above the court, the atmosphere is delicate.

The land of the border, the line between life and death.

For a while, people were panicked.

It's not that I'm afraid of the sudden force, but I don't know which side to send at this time is the key.

At this time, the four princes have become a corner, and if one is not careful, he will be defeated.

No one dares to act rashly.

Therefore, in the court, no matter who proposes to lead the troops, there will be people who will raise objections.

Pang Taishi and Zhao Yuxing are not emperors after all, and they do not have the right to dictate a word.

Therefore, after such news reached Tianjing, it was unresolved for three consecutive days.

Although Han Lingxi is only a small official, he is not a blind person in the court.

The situation and the plot are clear.

At this time, seeing such a form, I secretly analyzed it in my heart, and finally prepared behind my back.

On the fourth day, Mrs. Wen finally put forward a pertinent opinion.

That is, Duanmuhe, who was in the northwest camp, was invited to lead the 20,000 soldiers in the northwest camp to meet the enemy.

As soon as this remark came out, no one had any objections.

The reason is very simple, above the court, everyone knows that the Yongding Marquis Mansion is not attached to any faction.

When the news reached Duanmu Qing's ears, the will had already been sent to the northwest.

In the apricot eyes, the light sank, and I couldn't help but think of Chu Chulai that night.

At this time, Duanmu Qing also had to face this war seriously.

For the sake of the heir, Chu Yan had already followed Duanmuhe to the northwest camp.

At this time, there were only two in the Yongding Marquis Mansion, Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Su.

Duanmu Qing had a faint premonition in his heart.

"Miss, look who's back!"

In such an oppressive atmosphere, Lu Xi's suddenly excited voice was like a ray of sunshine.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Yun Qian's delicate face with fluttering wind and dust.

Seeing him suddenly, Duanmu Qing was also stunned for a moment, but he was still very happy in the end.

"I heard that the imperial court sent Feiyuan?"

There was no due greeting when they met, and Yun Qian opened his mouth like this.

Duanmu Qing didn't talk much nonsense, nodded and said, "Yes!" The order was given suddenly, but it made sense. ”

"Do you know where that army came from?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Qing was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "The person I sent has not come back yet, and it is really incomprehensible to call from there, there is just a desert there." ”

"Have you ever heard of Far Country?"

How have you never heard of this, Duanmu Qing's face became a little weird after hearing these three words.

Yun Qian also ignored it, and continued: "That distant country was destroyed by your grandfather and uncle back then. ”

Of course she knows this, and everyone surnamed Duanmu knows it clearly.

At that time, it was the first step for their Duanmu family to move towards Xiqi's meritorious service.

It is also a glory that the Duanmu family will not forget for so long.

But at this time......

"Master, what do you mean ......?"

"I always felt that this time they came unusually, first of all, this army is definitely not the remnants of a distant country."

Duanmu Qing nodded coldly: "They don't have that strength." ”

"Not bad!" Yun Qian said lightly, "Then who bothered so much effort to detour from there to start the attack?" What is the purpose? ”

Yun Qian's two words made Duanmu Qing's heart beat violently twice.

Because, there is only one answer to this, their target is not the imperial court, but the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

Who is there to have such a big hatred with the Marquis of Yongding?

When faced with this question, Duanmu Qing suddenly couldn't answer.

If you talk about several major forces in China, except for Zhao Yuhong, it seems that they all have some grievances.

But excluding the domestic forces, it is a distant country that has been destroyed.

Is there a remnant of iniquity? So which side of the force are they colluding with?

"You think about it, and find another way to let me enter the palace."

Hearing this, Duanmu Qing raised his eyes and looked at him in surprise, and then understood.

"I'll let Han Lingyan think of a way."

Looking at his back as he walked out of the room, Duanmu Qing frowned deeply.

For the first time, she felt like she was stuck in a fog that she couldn't sort through.

Over the next few days, almost everyone waited for news from the northwest.

Duanmu Qing was also in no mood at this time, and he paid attention to Duanmu Bi's abnormality.

Relatively speaking, she is more concerned about Duanmuhe's safety.

The message has already been sent to Tingfeng Tower, and the people of Astragalus should have already been dispatched.

I just don't know if those people are useful on the battlefield.

But when I think about it, it's just that people are going to protect Duanmuhe, not to fight on the battlefield, so there should be no problem.

My heart was a little more settled.

Ten days have passed, and there has been no news inside or outside the palace.

Tianjing also became panicked, even the common people did not know the news that the emperor was critically ill.

However, the war in the northwest could not be concealed in any way.

Duanmu Qing looked at the gloomy weather, his heart was even more irritable, leaning against the door, and his brows didn't seem to let go at all.

By this time it was already cold, and the wind was rising from the ground, indicating that a heavy rain was coming.

A cloak suddenly fell on his shoulder, and Duanmu Qing's expression softened a little.

turned his face, but found that it was not Cai Wei, but Han Lingxi, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

At this time, the domestic situation in Xiqi was tense, and although Han Lingyan was a person from the east, he had to consider his position at this moment.

Therefore, these days, the two of them have not seen each other much, and almost all the day, he has been in the outer courtyard to discuss things with those staff.

"It's cold, why are you standing in the wind."

At this time, there was no smile on their faces, I don't know if it was because of the tense situation outside, or because of the gloomy weather at the moment.

Duanmu Qing shook his head and did not answer.

It can be seen that she is really in a bad mood at this time.

Sighing in his heart, Han Ling showed a smile: "Okay, okay, don't be bitter anymore, it's been so long, I believe there will be definite news soon." ”

Duanmu Qing nodded, but was silent and did not speak.

Naturally, news will come, but the bad premonition in her heart is still lingering in her chest, and there is no way to let go of that breath.

"It's going to be good news."

Han Ling's rare serious tone was serious and affirmative.

As soon as Duanmu Qing looked up, he saw the firmness in her eyes.

At the bottom of my heart, I suddenly felt a little more steady.

"Miss, Miss, there is news from the palace, saying that it is eight hundred miles urgent, second young master...... The second young master won. ”

As if to confirm Han Lingxi's words, just as his words fell, Lu Xi hurriedly ran over.

After being stunned for a while, Duanmu Qing realized what she meant.

"What did you say?!"

"Victory, flying far victory."

This time, it was not Lu Xi's retelling, but Han Ling grabbed her arm, looked at her eyes and told her seriously.

Only then did he finally smile, and at the same time relieved: "Did you say when you will come back?" ”

Shaking his head, Lu Xi still had a smile on his face: "It's just the good news that just came, but it doesn't seem to be long after." ”

Thinking of something, Duanmu Qing hurriedly smiled and said, "Tell the carriage, let's go back to the Yongding Marquis Mansion." ”

When Han Ling heard this, he put away his smile and corrected: "It's to go to the Yongding Marquis Mansion." ”

was slightly stunned, and then understood what he meant.

At this time, she was in a good mood, and she said with rare obedience: "Yes, yes, yes, let's go to the Yongding Marquis Mansion." ”
