There is no "minister who dare" who is used to following closely, Yue Bai's voice is deep: "Qinzhou is one of the important granaries of Great Xia, and the emperor is willing to bait in order to lure Beiting. If Qinzhou is lost, how many people in Great Xia will be hungry, has the emperor calculated? ”

Duan Shuqing said gloomily: "You come all day and night, do you want to talk to me like this all the time?" ”

Yue Bai: "The minister is now worried about his sister's life or death, and he has slightly offended the emperor, so he will be at the emperor's disposal." ”

As soon as he was like this, Duan Shuqing's tone immediately softened: "Tang'er will be fine with you, he will return safely, and I can still joke with your sister's life?" ”

Yue Bai looked at her: "Maybe he will die of some negligence, no matter what, the emperor can't be blamed." ”

Duan Shuqing was annoyed and reprimanded, "Yue Bai, how can you talk to me?" ”

Yue Bai got up, bowed to Duan Shuqing, and said, "The minister is arrogant." ”

There are only these three words, and there is no usual sentence behind it: "I implore the emperor to forgive my sins." ”

Duan Shuqing clearly felt Yue Bai's anger, even though his tone was still as calm as usual. There was a panic in her heart that she hadn't seen for a long time, as if something was passing quickly, and she couldn't grasp the slightest thing.

At this moment, she really wanted to immediately fly a pigeon and send a message to Hong Ding, so that he could save Yue Tang's life no matter what, instead of "life and death are with her" as before. But she can't do anything now, Yue Bai is sitting here, except for the news, he is also watching her.

She felt aggrieved again. Her Bailang had never treated her like this, and even when he watched the face walk out of her inner sanctum, he didn't blame her for a word.

Jiao was secretly angry, Duan Shuqing really didn't know what to want, and said for a while: "When the matter in Qinzhou is decided, the North Court is weak, take the North Court in one fell swoop, and never have any worries, I ...... I, we can go galloping as often as we go. How are you? ”

Yue Bai's eyebrows didn't move at all, and he asked, "Who does the emperor plan to assign to attack Beiting?" ”

Duan Shuqing seemed a little surprised that he asked this question, but said in a gentle tone: "Except for you, I don't trust others either. ”

Yue Bai's face was still unwavering, and he said, "The minister's order." ”

Duan Shuqing rebuked angrily: "It's okay to be unhappy if you're not happy, what is such a coy attitude?" Believe it or not, I immediately let people rebuke you? ”

Yue Bai looked at her and said calmly: "Before the minister went to encircle and suppress Lanxi, the emperor said to the minister: 'I don't want you to be hurt again. The minister thought that the meaning of this sentence was that this was the last time the minister would go on such a large-scale expedition. He stared at Duan Shuqing's slightly stunned eyes, "It seems that the emperor doesn't remember anymore." ”

Duan Shuqing really couldn't remember whether she had ever said this, but she knew that she had definitely said it when she looked at Yue Bai's appearance. She wanted to explain but couldn't get out, she knew that all explanations were powerless. And Yue Bai had already saluted her slightly, retreated to his seat, returned to his previous posture and sat quietly at the door of the palace, and continued to wait for news.

Duan Shuqing looked at him in amazement for a while, and there was a little anger in this abruptness, but in the end, the anger dissipated in Yue Bai's quiet and lonely eyes looking at her, like a storm and clouds, and disappeared without a trace.

Inside the city of Qinzhou.

Cheng Li and other rebels were captured, more than 6,000 people, no less than a lot. Cheng Li and other leaders were closely guarded, and the rest of the heat was temporarily put into prison in the city. Cheng Li said to Xue Huai before being escorted away: "I don't know anything, if you want to follow General Guiying, don't try to ask any ...... from my mouth, you thief in the North Court."

Xue Huai interrupted softly: "No need, I don't have anything to ask." ”

Cheng Li looked at him strangely: "Why don't you ask who is planning to instruct?" ”

Xue Huai smiled faintly: "I already know." He motioned to the soldiers to take Cheng Li down to be detained, what else did Cheng Li want, Xue Huai said again: "The people who came to reinforce you have been taken, don't count on it anymore." ”

Cheng Li was taken aback, and said while writhing to resist being taken away: "Impossible, you have only been around for a long time, and your men and horses are not 30,000 at all, but there are more than 8,000 people!" How can there be more spare strength to deal with reinforcements! ”

Xue Huai: "You have reinforcements, I will also cherry" He waved his hand again to take it away, and no longer answered a word.

The surrounding soldiers began to clear the streets of debris and drag away the dead and rebellious. Xue Huai told the soldiers to check the situation of the people left in the city, instructed them to be properly settled, and then blocked the news in the city and did not allow anyone to leak it, and ordered someone to bring Cheng Li's henchmen to come, and ordered him to write a good message according to the previous message with the capital, and ordered someone to send it to the capital.

After everything was arranged, Xue Huai was a little relieved, but he saw a figure jumping very quickly on the roof not far away, floating lightly on the ground, and his breath was still very steady and said: "There may be a fire and thunder under Qinzhou." ”

The person who came was Lao Bai.

Xue Huai was slightly surprised, and Lao Bai continued: "The general has also dug up fire mines in the ground outside the city, and there are quite a few of them. At present, it is impossible to determine how many volcanic mines there are in this area, so we can only check them everywhere. The general will withdraw the people first, so that you can see if it is convenient on the back mountain. ”

The mountain foundation is deep and hard, inconvenient to excavate, and it is not a good place to bury.

Xue Huai immediately said: "I will immediately send someone to evacuate the people to the back mountain, and it will be safer for you to let her evacuate outside the lake in the southeast direction." ”

Lao Bai left in response. Xue Huai instructed the soldiers: "Send someone immediately to ask the people who has excavated the land and where since the turmoil in the city, the more detailed the better!" ”

A soldier who had been following Xue Huai's side said: "Lord Lang, Qinzhou has been stabilized, and I forgot you to go to 'Rongquan' to relieve your fatigue." ”

Xue Huai: "No need, the city is busy." ”

The soldier insisted: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has a generous gift, and she must go. ”

Xue Huai frowned slightly: "If I insist on not going, what will you do?" ”

The soldier smiled and approached him, saying, "Even if you can see the one you want to see, won't you go?" ”

Xue Huai had actually guessed, but still insisted: "Don't go." ”

The soldier added: "But she has a strange poison in her body, and it may be the only one you can solve." ”

Xue Huai was shocked: "What?!" ”

Soldier: "According to the detailed report, she drank the wine given by the empress before leaving Beijing, which was poisonous. ”

Xue Huai's heart lit up and asked, "You can't detoxify without retrieving my head?" ”

Soldier: "Yes." ”

Xue Huai was confused for a while, and said, "When are you going?" She...... Why did you come? ”

The soldier smiled: "The rest will be handed over to General Ke, I believe he will be able to do it." ”
