Chapter 68: The Hequ Coup

It is said that Lu Yi Jianzheng and Wen Yue got together in the idle court, and the two talked about the Beizhou mutiny, the Wang Ze who preached "the decline of the Buddha Shakya, the Maitreya Buddha should hold the world", gathered believers to rebel, a group of peasants, lower-level soldiers, prisoners gathered into an army, occupied a Beizhou, as if occupying the whole world, can't wait to build the country and call the emperor.

The reason why they talked about this matter was only because Wen Yanbo wrote to himself and begged to lead the troops to suppress it. He also said that when Bei meets Wen, he will be defeated. Saying this, Wen Yue shook his head and sighed unconsciously.

Lu Yijian didn't think so, and said: "I have raised three sons, except for the second brother, even if the other two are added together, they are not as good as a second man in your family, he is a thoughtful and courageous person, so you don't have to worry about it." ”

Wen Yue said: "If he is bent on making meritorious contributions, what do I care about, it is nothing more than being afraid of him, and I am still obsessed with the people who should not be worried about and the things that should not be remembered." ”

Lu Yijian was embarrassed, and said, "Didn't I hear that your second brother is not discussing marriage with the lord of Anyang County?" ”

Wen Yue sighed: "Don't mention it, but whenever the county lord of Anyang is mentioned, he doesn't nod or shake his head, he only buries his head in front of the public case all day long, and doesn't ask anything about it, and even the teahouse is lost to his mother." Even if he told us that he still thought about her, it would be successful, but he didn't say a word. ”

Lu Yijian said with a smile: "Even if he tells you, what's the use, what status does that one have now, he can't easily deserve it." ”

Wen Yue's eyes were full of complexity, and he said, "If she hadn't picked up the matter, she would have entered my house earlier." I used to see her soft and weak, but I didn't think there was anything. On that day, she played a game with the princess of the Liao Emperor, and she knew that it was good, and she would not be able to do anything if she was trained by my wife's side! It's really pitiful and sad to get into such a charcoal explosion again. ”

Lu Yijian was silent for a long time and said: "For her, whether it is a blessing or a curse is unknown. ”

Just as he was saying this, he suddenly heard a report from the steward and said: "I heard that the younger brother of the Liao Emperor launched a coup d'Γ©tat in Hequ, at that time, the rich officials were in Xinzhou, I don't know if they were implicated, in short, there is no news." ”

Lu Yijian and Wen Yue glanced at each other unconsciously, and Wen Yue sighed: "It's really eventful!" He suddenly thought of it, so he waved his hands to Lu Yijian and said: "I'm afraid that Your Majesty will be in a hurry again, I will go back to the house to change the court clothes first, Lu Gong, take your leave." ”

Lu Yijian returned the salute, he rubbed the chess pieces in his hand, watched Wen Yue leave, and had an idea in his heart.

However, it was said that Fu Liangbi failed to escape from Xinzhou in time, so he had to wander among the refugees and wait for an opportunity.

The night began to shorten after Qingming, and before the moon set, the sky gradually glowed with blue light, so that he could see clearly this scorched earth, ruins and broken walls, and corpses pillows. There are many birds and finches chirping on the branches, mixed with the sympathetic cries of women and children.

Lao Chen walked towards him with wind and dust, he was already old and his face was full of wrinkles, and after experiencing the influence of war, he looked even more depressed. He sat down next to Fu Liangbi and said, "No, I grabbed the land and wiped it out, and I couldn't even find Zhang Hu Cake." ”

Fu Liangbi looked at Lao Chen and asked, "I'm asking you to find a way out." ”

Lao Chen said: "If you are hungry, how can you have the strength to work." He licked his dry, peeling lips and said, "Mr. Fu, I see something strange about this. ”

Fu Liangbi looked around and said, "You say, where is the strangeness?" ”

Lao Chen said: "I don't know if the Yelu brothers are fighting in the nest or not, but the vanguard of the Volcano Army led by Yelu Chongyuan is the Western Xia Iron Harrier Army. ”

Fu Liangbi frowned and said, "The Iron Harrier Army is the famous Yuanhui's personal guard, are you mistaken?" ”

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Lao Chen was anxious and said, "The heavy armor of the Iron Harrier Army can't penetrate it; He also tied his soldiers and horses with hooks and locks, so that even if a man died, he would not fall off his horse and would continue to charge towards the enemy. How can this be wrong! The Jingsai Army of the Song people, the Tielin Army and the Leather Room Army of the Khitan people, the Tiefutu and the Kidnapping Horse of the Jurchens have all suffered the losses of the Iron Harrier Army. ”

Fu Liangbi's heart moved, and he said: "If Yelu Chongyuan and Yuan Hao reach an agreement, and the inside and outside should join forces to rebel, then this matter will be a big deal." ”

He raised his eyes to look at the full moon, and there was only a transparent outline left in the blue sky, and the earth was slightly wrapped in a warm orange, indicating that today would be a sunny day.

Lao Chen continued: "I have inquired at the east gate, the west gate and the north gate, all of them are heavily guarded, the Que Tower is guarded day and night, the soldiers are vigilant, and the guards are strict, so we can't escape for the time being." ”

Fu Liangbi groaned for a long time, and said: "No, we must leave as soon as possible, and if we stay, Bianjing will definitely change." ”

Lao Chen smacked his lips and said: "It's easy for you to say, how to escape, there are checkpoints at major intersections, and there are soldiers patrolling the road, I can't help it, you have the ability, you can make up your own mind." ”

As he was saying this, a group of junior soldiers approached, holding a portrait and examining it in the crowd.

Fu Liangbi lowered his head and asked softly, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Lao Chen said: "Yelu Lingyun, the youngest princess of the Liao Kingdom." ”

Fu Liangbi frowned unconsciously, he glanced at Lao Chen, and went to observe the soldiers looking for people, and saw that they did only pay attention to women, but suddenly, he saw a person running in the distance, holding another portrait in his hand, he chuckled in his heart, and secretly felt that it was not good.

Sure enough, the soldiers began to grab the men and compare the portraits.

Fu Liangbi said softly: "It seems that they already know that I am also in Xinzhou." ”

Lao Chen held the dagger at his waist and stared at the group of soldiers with his eyes. But when he heard a chaotic sound, there was already a fight on his right hand - Yelu Lingyun held a short knife to block left and right, injuring several people.

The soldiers who were looking for people stacked the picture scrolls and rushed to the rescue with their knives drawn.

Yelu Lingyun still had a few fierce generals around him, and when he saw the distance, several Xixia military halls came straight with swords, so they had to shout: "Suo Luole, quickly escort the princess away!" Let's go, let's go! ”

Fu Liangbi recognized that the person who was called Suo Luole was the one who beat the soldiers of the army in front of the royal car of Baojin Tower, and he didn't feel that he said: "This is very strange!" He saw that Suo Luole was escorting Yelu Lingyun to evacuate, and hurriedly took Lao Chen to follow quietly.

Solole took Yelu Lingyun to run in the alley, stabbing an arrow head-on, hitting his calf, he howled, only to see that before and after, there were black chasing soldiers surrounded and annihilated, he yelled at Yelu Lingyun: "Enter the alley, quickly enter the alley!" Find a place to hide! ”

Yelu Lingyun'er trembled slightly, and said hurriedly: "Then what should you do!" ”

Solo shouted, "Go! With that, he raised his broadsword and faced it.

Yelu Lingyun endured her grief and went into the alley, she ran all the way, almost ran out of breath, the footsteps behind her were mixed, the armor clanged, she couldn't find a place to hide, and entered a dead end, but there was a wooden ladder.

She looked back and saw that the person who was chasing was the Xixia Xiang army that she had fought yesterday, and she was already close at hand, and she clenched her short knife and was about to kill the enemy head-on.

Suddenly, two snorts were heard, and the two Western Xia soldiers in the back row fell in response, and the advancing soldiers boarded up and stood on guard in the rear.

Yelu Lingyun saw that there was a turnaround, and hurriedly climbed the wooden ladder, the Xixia soldiers heard the news, and hurriedly continued to pursue, but heard two more sounds, Yelu Lingyun climbed the wall, looked back, the leading soldier fell to the ground, but heard the sound of armor, at the mouth of the alley, a column of crossbowmen flew over, she hurriedly jumped off the wall, but at that moment, an arrow was hit in the back.

She suddenly lost her strength, her legs were weak, she knelt on the ground, and a green silk shirt appeared in front of her, her heart trembled, and when she raised her eyes, she saw him holding a round of red sun, under the light of the bright sun, he couldn't see his face clearly.

He picked her up, and Yelu Lingyun saw clearly that it was Fu Liangbi, the envoy of the Song State.

Fu Liangbi asked, "Can you still walk?" ”

Yelu Lingyun nodded, and suddenly heard the sound of armor, Fu Liangbi took Yelu Lingyun to turn left and around, and fled into a medicinal herb shop, only to hear the pursuers arrive again, when he was anxious, he suddenly saw a well, and a flash of inspiration quickly took her to dive into the well water along the rope.

The pursuers rummaged in the courtyard for a while, and then heard the news from outside, and hurriedly evacuated. After they left, it took about a sentence or two before the two of them jumped out of the well water, and Yelu Lingyun did not know the nature of water, and coughed so that her eyes were swollen and her muscles were swollen, and her face was red. Fu Liangbi hurriedly held her mouth and made a sound again.

He listened quietly for a long time, and after confirming that the pursuers had left, he climbed out of the well by means of a rope. After looking around again, he pulled Yelu Lingyun ashore and took her into the house.

He listened to the movement outside the house, while kissing his own hands and feet, rummaging for clothes that could be changed, obviously this is a Song people's home, he took the clothes, turned around and saw Lingyun sitting on the kang, panting, first stunned for a moment, and then put the clothes beside her, and said, "Offended." ”

After that, he turned around and hesitated for a long time, the cold well water was so biting that he had to untie his robe and change his clothes. After he finished changing his clothes, he hesitated for a long time and asked, "I don't know Your Royal Highness the princess, have you changed your clothes?" ”

Lingyun said: "Turn around." ”

Fu Liangbi turned around at this time, but saw that Lingyun maintained the posture of Fang Cai, and did not make any moves, he did not feel surprised. But I heard Lingyun say: "I was hit by an arrow in the back...... Besides, I won't wear Song clothes. ”

Fu Liangbi suddenly, he sighed, and hurriedly went to the box to rummage for wound medicine, just when Lao Chen came to the house, Fu Liangbi was amnesty, and said with a smile: "I won't treat arrow wounds, you came at the right time!" ”

Lao Chen blushed, looked Lingyun up and down, and said, "I will heal her injuries, I am willing, not necessarily she is willing." ”

Fu Liangbi sighed suspiciously.

Ling Yun blushed slightly, pointed at Lao Chen and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you pull out the arrow for me first!" ”

Lao Chen was not happy, and said: "What is your situation now, and you are still putting up a princess shelf, do you believe that I threw you on the street?" ”

Ling Yun gasped and was about to cross-examine when Fu Liangbi interrupted: "The safety is uncertain right now, it's not the time to fight, it's important to heal quickly." After that, he glanced at Lao Chen, Lao Chen understood, took a handkerchief and folded it a few times, handed it to Lingyun, and said: "Bit, don't howl for a while, let the pursuers hear, you are a small death, even if you affect Mr. Fu, I will also suffer." ”

Lingyun glanced at Lao Chen, took the handkerchief, and bit it in his mouth.

Lao Chen bit her handkerchief, didn't even wake up, directly stretched out his hand to pull out the arrow, Lingyun wailed in a muffled voice, and was already in a cold sweat, almost fainting in pain.

Lao Chen pressed the wound with a handkerchief with one hand, looked at the arrow cluster, gasped, and said: "This arrow still has a barb, but it is lucky, it is not broken in the flesh." ”

Lingyun spit out the handkerchief, grabbed Lao Chen's arm, his eyes were round, he gasped, and scolded: "You wait for me, see how I clean you up in the future!" ”

Lao Chen said: "Don't move, this blood is spurting out." ”

Fu Liangbi was afraid of change, so he hurriedly stepped forward to replace Lao Chen.

Lingyun trembled angrily, she squinted at Lao Chen, and said, "Get out." ”

Lao Chen said: "I don't go out, it's going on outside, I'll go out to find death." ”

Lingyun said angrily: "Could it be that if I change my clothes, you won't go out." ”

Fu Liangbi hurriedly said to Lao Chen: "Go out." ”

Lao Chen had to leave in a huff.

Fu Liangbi didn't know what to do, Lingyun saw him like this, endured the pain of piercing his heart, unbuttoned his clothes, half-exposed his shoulders, and asked: "I see that you are old, and you are still so twisted, haven't you seen a woman's body?" ”

Fu Liangbi opened his mouth slightly, and kept rubbing his right thumb and index finger in a cramped manner.

Ling Yun looked at him for a long time, then turned around and muttered, "It's really useless." ”

Fu Liangbi had no choice but to put down her disordered thoughts, clean her wounds, and asked, "What happened yesterday in the river meander?" Why are there still Western Xia soldiers? ”

Lingyun said: "I don't know, I was sleeping in a blur, and suddenly I heard someone shouting that there was an enemy attack, I hurriedly put on my clothes and took my weapons to meet the battle. She gasped in pain, and suddenly, she felt a cool breeze gently blowing on the wound, and the pain was relieved, and she unconsciously glanced back at Fu Liangbi.

She hesitated for a long time, and then asked, "Do you know what happened to Solole and them?" ”

Fu Liangbi said: "They were all arrested. ”

Lingyun frowned.

Fu Liangbi said: "Everyone said that the younger brother of the Liao Emperor rebelled, but his personal entourage protected you from the crisis moment, don't you think it's strange?" ”

Lingyun thought for a long time and said, "It's really strange that you mention it like this. She paused and said, "Maybe he doesn't want me to be involved." ”

Fu Liangbi said: "He can lock you up and wait for the overall situation to settle." ”

Ling Yun frowned and said, "I said the same thing to him and the emperor's brother, if he has the idea of rebelling, I will kill him with my own hands." If the emperor's brother wants to murder him because of slander and suspicion, I will also kill the emperor's brother with my own hands. As long as I am here, this home is not allowed to be chaotic. Maybe that's why he wants me to stay out of this strife. ”

Fu Liangbi laughed, felt that it was inappropriate, and hurriedly pressed it down, and said: "It is better to lock you up than to let you run around in this situation." ”

Lingyun heard the laughter, looked back at Fu Liangbi for a moment, and asked, "What are you laughing at?" You don't think I have what it takes? ”

Fu Liangbi was stunned for a moment and said, "No, it's just that you remind me of someone." ”

Lingyun said: "What person, your sweetheart?" ”

Fu Liangbi thought for a long time and said with a smile: "No, she is my sister, and she always tries her best to maintain our home. ”

Lingyun sneered and said: "You men, you are so ambitious, fame and fortune, but you don't know that in this life, people are limited, power and wealth are just embellished, and the relationship between men and women is easy to change, only home is the most precious." ”

Fu Liangbi smiled and sighed softly.

Ling Yun turned to look at him again and said, "You don't look like a person who will do anything for fame and fortune. ”

Fu Liangbi smiled: "Really? ”

Lingyun said: "You have a saying in Zhongzhou called 'a gentleman seeks the country, and a villain seeks his life', you are a gentleman, and your sister should support you." ”

Fu Liangbi muttered: "She supports, she not only supports silently, she will also find ways to do whatever she can to help me." ”

Lingyun nodded and said, "It's good." ”

Fu Liangbi was silent for a long time, but said: "But I don't want her to sacrifice anything for me and for us." ”

Lingyun turned to look at him, she opened her eyes slightly, and said angrily: "You men, you are all boastful, do you know that you Zhongzhou still has a saying, 'the authorities are obsessed with bystanders', our perspective can see what you can't see, you just need to accept it, how difficult is it?" ”

Fu Liangbi looked at Lingyun deeply, his heart became bright little by little, and he smiled: "What the princess taught is that if a person is not a saint, who can do nothing." No matter how talented I am, it will be difficult for me to complete it. If you can be so lucky, you have someone who doesn't want to reciprocate and is obsessed with me, why do you have to leave it alone. ”

Lingyun looked at Fu Liangbi with a smile and said, "The son can be taught." ”

Fu Liangbi smiled and asked again, "What are you going to do next?" When he said this, Lingyun also happened to say this, and the two of them were stacked together, and they didn't even have a bad word, and they all laughed for a while.

Fu Liangbi laughed for a while and said, "I want to find a way to go back to the Song Kingdom first, what about you?" ”

Lingyun said: "I'm going to ask the truth, if he really colludes with Wei Mingyuan to rebel, I will kill him desperately." ”

Fu Liangbi froze in his hand and said, "Are you alone...... It's not that I'm underestimating you, it's really hard. ”

Lingyun said: "I'll figure it out." ”

Fu Liangbi saw that she was tenacious and couldn't be easily convinced, so he stopped talking.

After healing, he was about to leave the house, but he heard Lingyun say angrily: "I won't wear Song clothes, either you go find other clothes, or you wear them for me!" ”

Fu Liangbi didn't realize that his face was hot, and secretly regretted that he should have brought Maitia with him.

But listening to the mixed footsteps, the door suddenly opened, and he stood up abruptly in front of Lingyun.
