The three of them unexpectedly went out of the customs smoothly, Liuning thought that it should be Tang Changyu who let them out of the city, she looked back at the city tower, only to see Tang Changyu standing in the wind, looking deeply at the direction they were far away, although they were far apart, Liuning could also feel his eyes staring at him, his eyes were like a pool of deep water, calm, deep, suffocating emotions seemed to envelop her, Liuning was getting farther and farther away from him, until his outline had become no longer clear.

Zhao Nan found Tang Changyu on the city tower, reported on the relevant matters of taking over the Yumen Pass, and asked him to go down to meet the emperor, but he saw that he was looking into the distance intently, and saw his back clearly, and said very worriedly: "I'm afraid it's not good for you to be so serious about this princess." In exchange, Tang Changyu was silent.

Zhao Nan saw that the other party ignored it, and said: "You just ordered the encirclement to be removed and let go of the enemy's king and general, although they were wiped out this time, and the princess saved your life twice, but after all, this is to let the tiger return to the mountain, I am afraid that the emperor will blame him if he knows." ”

Tang Changyu opened his mouth to answer at this time, his voice was calm and straight, as if he was talking about something insignificant: "I have already had a countermeasure to this matter, now we have taken the Yumen Pass, the troops of the two passes of the back door have already been transferred to the Yumen Pass, and now they are all wiped out, the back two passes must be empty of troops, tomorrow we will send troops to level the main pass, and then attack the Huanyou Pass, we will definitely be able to capture it, and then the three passes will be connected within three days, and the emperor will definitely reward them, and will not delve into today's affairs." At this time, the back in Tang Changyu's eyes had completely disappeared from his sight, and Tang Changyu followed Zhao Nan down the city wall to meet the emperor.

Liuning Liubin helped Jingli to rest in the distant woods for a while, Liuning bandaged Jingli simply, and said to Jingli: "Brother Wang, now that we have escaped death, we have to find a safe and peaceful place for you to heal well and regroup." ”

Jingli said without thinking: "The troops of the last two levels have been evacuated by us, but I am afraid that they will be broken in the near future, and now we can only retreat to Duming City, and then mobilize troops and horses to support the front line. ”

Liubin pulled up Jingli and helped him and said, "Okay, let's go quickly, retreat from the path, so as not to encounter a large army that is going to fight." ”

Li Shimin in Yumen Pass was overjoyed and said: "All Aiqing in the first battle of Yumen Pass have worked hard, and I want to set up a banquet for all the generals to reward the three armies." ”

Tang Changyu replied: "Back to the emperor, Weichen thinks that now I have won a big victory in the Yumen Pass, morale is high, we should take advantage of the victory to pursue, the spies have reported that the troops in the main pass and the Huanyou Pass are weak, and the defense is not strict, we will be able to capture it, and it will not be too late to celebrate in the Huanyou Pass." ”

Li Shimin already had such a plan in his heart, and when Tang Changyu spoke, he immediately agreed: "Okay, the three armies will rest today, and tomorrow they will send troops to level the main pass." ”

The development of the war is unexpected, **morale soared, it can be described as majestic, all the way through the pass, occupy the right time, place and people, three days later, **successfully won the main pass, advance into the Huanyou Pass, **stationed in the Huanyou Pass, the emperor ordered to rest in the Huanyou Pass for three days to celebrate the feast, reward the three armies, three days later into the Ming City.

Liuning Liubin and Jingli came to Duming City, Jingli couldn't care about his injuries, and hurriedly discussed the strategy of defending the city with the generals in Duming City, at this time Jingli received a letter from Wanyan again: **Stationed in Huanyou Pass, three days later into Duming City.

Jingli finally decided to send people to the Turkic royal city and Duming city to recruit troops and horses and collect grain and grass. At this time, the Turkic people were plagued by wars, and the people were struggling to make a living, so Liuning Liubin persuaded Brother Wang to try slowly, not to rush for quick success, and to attach too much pressure to the people, otherwise it would arouse the people's resentment boiling.

But Jingli saw that the current battle situation was urgent, and in three days, ** would be in the city, afraid that there would be another accident in the battle situation, and they would not be allowed to have the kindness of a woman, so they would speed up the reorganization of the army, train the three armies, and lay down a sharp arrow formation outside Duming City, which had both defensive power and could resist the ** attack.

In the Huanyou Pass, Li Shimin held a banquet to reward the three armies, ** The military camp was a song and dance, the sound of silk and bamboo music lingered in the ears, the dancers danced, the aroma in the military camp tent was pleasant, the generals raised their glasses and put them down, a piece of joy, it was definitely not the army outside the camp tent that stepped on, the grass and trees were all soldiers, and it was lifeless.

Li Shimin raised his glass and said: "Everyone, Marshal Tang led all the generals to connect the three passes in three days, I am very relieved, let me raise a glass together, congratulations to Marshal Tang, for all the generals, for my Tang Congratulations, cheers." ”

Wanyan sat beside the emperor, raised a glass with everyone in the tent, drank a cup, and said to the emperor with a smile: "The concubine is so happy to see the emperor today, it is better to let the concubine sing and dance for the emperor and cheer for the emperor." ”

Li Shimin smiled and said very happily: "Okay." ”

Wanyan changed into a cyan dance dress, pulled up her black hair, and put on some plain flowers decorated with red gems, looking at the simplicity of the dress, but it gave people the beautiful beauty of "clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving", Wanyan held the pipa in her hand, the jade hand stroked, Qianqian's jade fingers plucked on the strings, the show mouth opened, and the voice was tactful:

The society is up and down, the beacon smoke is burning, and it has been up and down several times in the troubled times.

The general is a hero, the prancing horse rises, and the battlefield battle is resting.

The beauties have broken intestines, looking forward to the return of the king, and waiting to wear autumn water from time to time.

Chivalrous tenderness, dreams are haunted, peace and tranquility are waiting for the king's return.

The song fell, Wanyan put down the pipa, the cyan water sleeve flicked, spreading a new world, she stood on the ground with her right foot, her body also rotated, the skirt lingered out of the flower, the arm shook gently, the water sleeve drew a beautiful arc in the air, gently moved the lotus step, the beautiful eyes flowed, and the smile was touching.

Zhao Nan raised his eyes and looked at Wan Yan, between the light stones, Zhao Nan felt that the pretty figure burned his eyes, Wan Yan saw Zhao Nan's concentration, and smiled at him, if Zhao Nan was asked to recall the scene of that day and that smile after many years, he would definitely say, a glance for ten thousand years.

After singing and dancing, everyone in the tent was amazed, and the emperor looked at his concubine intently, and said with some excitement: "Concubine Ai, how many amazing things do you have that I don't know, this song should only be in the sky, this dance is only danced by fairies, and the concubine is really like a goddess descending from heaven, and it is moving." ”

Wanyan bent down to make a blessing: "The concubine thanked the emperor, and the emperor praised it falsely." Wanyan walked straight back to the seat beside the emperor, passed by Zhao Nan's side, bowed her head and smiled at him, no one noticed that Zhao Nan looked away a little embarrassed, but the corners of his mouth were smiling.

Everyone was still immersed in the joy of the feast, the banquet was staggered, Zhao Nan's eyes glanced in the direction of Wanyan from time to time, with a smile on his face, Tang Changyu saw that he was a little strange, so he asked Zhao Nan what he was looking at, Zhao Nan smiled and shook his head.

After another half an hour, Li Shimin was tired from drinking, went back to his camp to rest, and let the others have fun before they dispersed, and everyone dispersed after a while.

Zhao Nan drank a lot and ate a lot, and couldn't sleep in her stomach for a while, wandering around the barracks, walking to a secluded place, and seeing a woman sitting on the ground, her black hair spread out and draped over her shoulders, shrouded in the moonlight, she looked up at the moon, and her back was a little desolate. Zhao Nan ghost sent a god to the back, the woman heard the footsteps of someone coming, hurriedly turned back, Zhao Nan saw that it was Wanyan, and hurriedly saluted: "The last general has seen Concubine Yan, Niangniang is a thousand years old." ”

Wan Yan smiled lightly: "General Zhao, please get up quickly, there are no outsiders here, General Zhao doesn't have to be so polite, let's sit together." ”

Zhao Nan sat next to Wanyan, Wanyan was still wearing the cyan dance dress, which looked a little thin, the original light color seemed to be integrated with the moonlight, different from the appearance of Wanyan's beautiful eyes at the banquet, her eyes were now more sad.

Zhao Nan opened his mouth and asked, "Why is Niangniang looking at the moon here alone?" ”

Wanyan replied: "The emperor is happy today, he has drunk a few more glasses, and he has already fallen asleep. ”

Zhao Nan looked lonely when she saw Wanyan alone, looked at the moon stupidly, and asked, "Niangniang, do you miss your relatives?" ”

Wanyan nodded, looked at the waning moon on the horizon, and said lightly: "The moon is not round, personnel are impermanent, now I send people under the fence, committed to the harem of the Tang Dynasty, trembling, walking on thin ice, once envied the glory of the Tang Dynasty, now I am here, in the eyes of outsiders, I am favored by the emperor, brocade clothes and jade food, and I miss the grassland more and more, free and unrestrained." ”

Wanyan took a breath of cold air and continued: "Harmony with my parents is a matter of life and death with my hometown and family, now that my father has died, ** and my brother have met in battle, the emperor has made up his mind to pacify the Turks, and when that day comes, I am afraid that I miss my hometown, and the sorrow of lovesickness will no longer be placed, so it is better to take advantage of the month of my hometown now, so as not to forget it in the future." ”

Wanyan had never and did not dare to say such intimate words to the emperor, but now she said the sad words in her heart, her heart was sour, and she closed her eyes and two lines of tears ran down her cheeks.

Zhao Nan never thought that Concubine Yan, who is now the most favored saint, would be so sad, seeing her eyes closed, letting the tears slide down her beautiful face, he raised his hand, wanting to wipe away the sad tears, but his hand stopped in mid-air.

He condemned himself fiercely in his heart: Zhao Nan, what are you doing, this is the emperor's concubine Yanniang, the emperor's woman, as a man who stands up to the sky, the word loyalty needs to be remembered at all times, how can the emperor's woman be comforted by him, this transgressive thing is really in vain to read the book of sages and sages, and to accept the Tang Dynasty in vain. Zhao Nan's hand hanging in the air fell, lowered his head and was silent, not knowing how to comfort the woman with pear blossoms and rain in front of him.

Wanyan was sad, wiped her tears, got up and said: "It's rare to be able to release emotions at will today, Wanyan is very happy to talk to General Zhao, we will be friends in the future, we don't have to be so polite in private to care about those red tape, it's getting late, Wanyan went back to rest first, General Zhao should also rest earlier, greedy for the moonlight, beware of cold." ”

Zhao Nan saluted respectfully and sent his mother away, Zhao Nan looked at the waning moon in the sky again, thinking that he finally understood the poem of the ancients today, and recited in a low voice: There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent. One look at the city, and then look at the country. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

However, there is a saying called creation and man, the world is often not perfect, sometimes the will of heaven is so, manpower is helpless, people often say, weak water three thousand I only take a scoop to drink, we are all in the vast sea of people hard to seek, just to find the right person, since then white, just at the wrong time to meet the right person, the beauty has become an unattainable person.
