Lin Yuan and Zhao Yun have been running to the palace recently, and they have to help Jiu Gu come up with an idea or something. It was raining heavily this day, and Lin Yuan and Zhao Yun had to stay temporarily.

Tao Youran likes the sound of rain the most, she has never gone out again since her brother died, and today is another rainy day, Tao Youran plans to go out for a walk to relax and relax her mood. The rain was so heavy, as if it was falling on Tao Youran's heart. Holding the umbrella statue in front of him, suddenly the wind picked up, and the umbrella was blown away.

Tao Youran didn't pick it up, and let the bean-sized raindrops keep hitting his face and hands. It was as if there was a puddle of water in his heart that slowly spread across his chest, until he finally submerged his whole person.

Lin Yuan came out to get pastries to eat, and saw Tao Youran who was constantly drenched in rain on the side of the road. Lin Yuan walked under the corridor, so he had to hurriedly shout, "Tao Youran!" Miss Tao ......", but unfortunately the rain was too loud and the people who shouted did not hear it.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to run to the rain and pull Tao Youran under the corridor, "Miss Tao, what's wrong with you, why haven't you brought an umbrella yet?" What should I do if I get sick? ”

Tao Youran shook his head, "It doesn't matter, no one cares what happens to me anyway." ”

Lin Yuan sensed that Miss Tao's mood was not quite right. remembered the news that came recently, saying that Tao Youran's brother died on the battlefield. Knowing this, Lin Yuan hugged Tao Youran, "I know you're feeling sorry for your brother, in fact, everyone will come that far, right?" And he's just gone to another place, and he'll always be with you. ”

Tao leisurely Yang Lei flowed out instantly. Panting heavily, the sadness in his heart could not be controlled. "But I miss him so much, and no one else treats me well but him. I only have him. ”

Lin Yuan patted Tao Youran's hand, "If you don't mind, we can all be your very good friends." Don't be sad. Everything will be fine. ”

Tao nodded leisurely, and left with the oil-paper umbrella sent by Lin Yuan and his subordinates.

Lin Kite went to find Jiugu. Jiu Gu was worried at this time, worried about the war between the two countries.

Lin Yuan spoke, "I saw Miss Tao today, it seems that the death of my brother hit her quite hard, walking alone in the rain, I feel distressed when I look at it." I've been crying, hey, it's also providential. ”

Jiugu frowned, "It's hard for him to think about what has happened these days." Anyway, I can't help him. ”

Lin Yuan shook her head, "Okay, I'll just tell you, I'll go back." ”

After Lin Kite left, Jiu Gu sat there quietly, thinking about what had happened recently. He did have a bit of anger and deliberate avoidance of Tao Youran. I thought she was the queen mother, and I didn't want to be involved too much, but when others said that she was so sad, I felt a little distressed and guilty.

The next day, above the court.

It was still the minister who was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, the minister proposed to marry Miss Tao Youran, and asked the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible, this matter is related to the desire to comfort the loyal ministers and good generals, and please ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Jiu Gu remembered what Lin Kite had said last night. He knew that he was a little distressed about Tao Youran, but Tao Youran was the queen mother, he couldn't and shouldn't have any emotional involvement.

Jiu Gu said lightly, "I said, this matter will be discussed again." But here's one thing to warn you about. The monarch of southern Xinjiang has always been me. ”

After retreating from the court, Jiu Gu sighed helplessly in the Qing Palace. He felt so helpless that he couldn't do anything. There is a deep sense of frustration.

At this time, a subordinate hurriedly rushed into the palace to report to him.

"Your Majesty, the Dongying Kingdom has seized four cities in our country. Now they are heading north in less than a month. and they will be able to attack us. The subordinate was still panting, "Now that our troops are insufficient, we really can't stop it." I also ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible to bless the people of southern Xinjiang with a long and healthy life. ”

Jiu Gu nodded to indicate that he already knew, and the subordinate quickly left, with Jiu Gu's complicated eyes behind him.

Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan came to Jiugu, "We already know that the Dongying Kingdom has occupied the four cities in southern Xinjiang. I originally wanted to tell you in advance this time, but it was delayed because there were too many things. ”

Jiu Gu raised his head, "You mean you can send troops to lend me money?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded, "Actually, I didn't agree to let Lin Yuan accompany the Holy Maiden to your southern Xinjiang before. But when I first ascended the throne, the court was unstable, and it was not safe to follow me. I thought I could get some protection from you, but I didn't expect that I was not the only one in this world who was unsatisfactory. So you can rest assured. I'm not going to break my word. ”

Lin Yuan suddenly remembered that Zhao Yun was reluctant to come by himself, but later agreed, it turned out to be this truth!

Lin Yuan was a little moved, "Big baby, thank you." ”

Zhao Yun smiled and hugged Lin Yuan's waist, "So sometimes, you have to listen to me, just like this time you have to argue that I can borrow soldiers from the fox, in fact, I am ready, I just want them to spend some troops first, and then we can obtain greater benefits!" ”

Jiugu chuckled, "Thank you too." ”

Zhao Yun smiled and didn't speak, and left with Lin Kite.

The next day, a third-party army suddenly appeared on the battlefield of the two countries. The general was like a bamboo, helping southern Xinjiang to attack Dongying, but Dongying was powerless and soon fled.

The people finally let go of their hearts by supporting the southern Xinjiang army.

Celebration banquet.

Jiugu drank a lot of wine. Lin Yuan and Zhao Yun both knew that he had been very worried recently, and he had died a lot of soldiers in exchange for half a moment of peace in this land.

Jiu Gu has been thanking the two of them to everyone at the celebration banquet, thanking them for everything they have done for themselves and their country.

The crowd was much drunk. I didn't notice that there was a person in the corner who had sneaked into Jiugu's imperial study. took away the retreat route negotiated by Jiu Gu and Zhao Yun.

The days of peace and tranquility were just over seven days. Something happened to everyone's surprise - the Dongying Kingdom came again.

Jiu Gu and Zhao Yun immediately arranged their troops to try to resist the ferocious attack of Dongying State. However, they seemed to have predicted the retreat route and terrain here in southern Xinjiang, and directly recaptured the previous three cities with great momentum.

Zhao Yun could no longer send troops, and all the previous troops had returned. Now, if you rashly turn back, you will be very lacking in food, grass and energy. Southern Xinjiang could only choose to fight hard, and for a time the morale was low, and the people fled out of the city one after another, fearing that this disaster would befall them.

Southern Xinjiang Imperial Study.

Jiu Gu was worried, "Only a few of us know the route of our retreat, why are they so clear?" ”

Lin Yuan nodded in agreement, "I don't understand either, as if someone can predict our plan every step of the way, and always take the lead." We simply have no room for defense. ”

Zhao Yun clasped the table with his hand, "A few of us won't say it, so there is only one possibility, that is, someone stole this secret." ”

"This can only be done by Dongying people!" Lin Kite agreed.

"No, not necessarily, it could be our people, just being bought." Jiu Gu explained coldly, "But now, we don't have the time and energy to find out this traitor or the outside." What we have to do now is how to arrange the troops, and I am afraid that southern Xinjiang will not be able to hold it in a few days later. ”

A few people slowly thought of a feasible countermeasure.

Lin Yuan suddenly spoke, "It's better for the two of you to go on a personal expedition, first, it can greatly increase the morale of the old people, and second, it can create a certain intimidation ability for the Dongying Kingdom." I'm secretly investigating who is behind the scenes, and we should be able to defend ourselves against this foreign enemy. ”

"Okay, I think it's possible, but you must keep yourself safe and wait until I come back, can you?" Zhao Yun instructed.

"I will, you should also pay attention to safety, if you have time, you can leave tomorrow!"

Zhao Yun and Jiugu went to the battlefield, and the border soldiers saw the two kings coming to the battle in person. , morale increased greatly, and for a time the blood was boiling and surging.

Zhao Yun stood on the high platform and looked at the soldiers below, "Soldiers, you are all our people, and we are willing to exchange your blood for your safety!" You have a family to worry about, and you have people who you can't forget. So this war is not only for ourselves, but also for our families! We will definitely fight with you to defend against foreign enemies! Give yourself and your family a peaceful and peaceful world! ”

Below, the soldiers raised their guns one after another, shouting, "Defend against foreign enemies and protect my family." ”

For a while, the shouts fell apart. Jiu Gu looked at the soldier in front of him and was full of emotion.

Zhao Yun planned to ambush a part of the soldiers first, and use a small part of the elite soldiers to induce the troops of the Dongying Kingdom to come to the canyon.

Zhao Yun arranged his plan. "Dongying Guo will definitely think that we are small in number, and they are not afraid of our ambush even in the canyon. So go and induce them to come. You are all carefully selected soldiers from my army. I believe you will come back alive. ”

At the same time, Lin Kite on the other side also found that the problem was abnormal, and she found that there was a palace person with an unfamiliar face but a familiar figure who frequently entered the mountain. Lin Kite secretly followed this person, and it could be found that this person was thoughtful, and even when he went to a deserted valley, he still wore a mask. Lin Kite found that this person had drawn a topography map in the valley. Could it be that he just told the people of Dongying Kingdom the secret of the retreat route in southern Xinjiang?

When Lin Kite hesitated and thought, the man found Lin Kite and secretly ran away while Lin Kite was stunned. Lin Yuan was even more worried after discovering that he was embarrassed, and always felt that this person's back seemed to be seen somewhere.

On the other side, the Dongying Kingdom was really fooled and came to the canyon, and at first they attacked the southern frontier with confidence. In the end, I realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. They were worried that there would be more rescuers in southern Xinjiang to help, so they had to retreat and leave.
