Chapter 13: Wen Zhao
——
Isolated from the Golden Court in the Northern Regions, tall and majestic is synonymous with it, and the banner of the Great Zhou Dynasty hangs over the city wall, as if it is announcing its strength to the Northern Regions.
Since Tang Gengzhou, when Beihu learned that the Emperor of the Great Zhou was a woman, he couldn't help but question the strength of the Great Zhou, and unanimously decided that the Tang Dynasty was now corrupt, so he would let a woman become the emperor and change the name of the country to Zhou.
After that, most of the new people in the Golden Court were crowned for a few years and that unrealistic deeds.
For the Beihu people, it was naturally unbelievable, so it aroused the Beihu people's thoughts to attack the Great Zhou.
Seeing that the Great Zhou did not say anything, he became more and more convinced that the Great Zhou was corrupt, and soon gathered an army of 800,000 and began to conquer Jinting.
The Jin court was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was impregnable, but the Beihu army was broken through in less than a year, which made the Beihu Khan convinced of the corruption of the Great Zhou, and then fought a series of battles, all the way from the Jin court to Beiguan. But he never thought that all this was just Yang Qice's strategy, and after the battle of Beiguan, Beihu has been in a slump since then.
——
The winter solstice solar term, heavy snowfall.
In the Yang Duhu Mansion,
Lin Yixiao stood alone under the eaves, looking at the falling snowflakes outside the house stupidly.
The cold wind came with endless coolness, but Lin Yixiao didn't seem to feel it, she sighed lightly and withdrew her gaze, turned around and walked towards the court.
The plum blossoms in the courtyard are in full bloom, and the white petals exude a faint fragrance, refreshing people's hearts, and the plum is plain white.
She stared at Lamei with watery eyes, full of thoughts.
There has been no news from her parents so far, and Yang Qice has been busy with important military affairs all day since she arrived in Jinting, so she has no time to take care of her.
The sun set again, but you still didn't see you.
Yang Qice has not returned to the mansion for four days, and yesterday, a letter was sent from the barracks to the mansion.
The letter indicated that Yang Qice had led his troops to attack the important places of Beihu some time ago.
I don't know when I'll be able to return.
With more than a cup of tea, Lin Yixiao looked back, gently stood on tiptoe, and walked back to the wing room without looking at the quiet snow scene in the courtyard.
The half of the warm incense in the house can't dispel the little melancholy in Lin Yixiao's heart, and the plate of vegetarian dumplings on the vermilion desk has been cold, Lin Yixiao sat quietly in front of the desk, and the coagulated soft wattle picked up the elephant chopstick, and gently picked up a vegetarian dumpling and put it into the vermilion lips, which was always difficult to swallow, like a fish in the throat.
——
When Yang Qice led his troops to attack the Tongluo tribe, he found that in a camp tent, there were scarred Da Zhou women, and when they saw that the door curtain was opened, they all retreated in horror.
Just as Yang Qice was about to put down the curtain and leave, he inadvertently found a woman dressed in tatters, and the jade pendant on her neck loomed, and the outline of the jade pendant was somewhat similar to what Lin Yixiao gave her. Yang Qice then walked forward quickly, grabbed the woman's hand, and pulled her up from the ground. I saw that the woman's expression was full of panic, trembling slightly, and the hand held by Yang Qice kept trying to break free, and her body shrank back.
Yang Qice had no pity for the jade, and directly ripped off the jade pendant, looking at the jade pendant that was no different from Lin Yixiao's, Yang Qice couldn't help but wonder, although this woman's appearance was not half as bad as Lin Yixiao, but there was no similarity, but why was this jade pendant exactly the same.
Seeing that Yang Qice forcibly took his jade pendant, the already weak woman actually broke free from Yang Qice and wanted to take back the jade pendant that was taken by Yang Qice.
Faced with such a situation, Yang Qice subdued him in an instant, after all, Yang Qice has experienced a hundred battles, how can a weak woman be defeated.
The woman who was caught by Yang Qice's backhand had a hoarse voice and said to Yang Qice with a slight cry
"I beg you, you can do whatever you want to me, can you return the jade pendant to me......"
When Yang Qice heard this, he immediately let go of his hand and asked
"What does this jade pendant have to do with you?"
"This is my token with my daughter... Worthless... Please..."
The woman sat on her knees, her eyes full of pleading except tears.
Daughter?
If this girl is Lin Yixiao's mother, why is there no resemblance at all?
"Lin Yixiao is your daughter?"
"Ah.......h
Hearing his daughter's name, Cai Wenzhao suddenly panicked, mistakenly thinking that his daughter was also captured by Beihu, and hurriedly knelt in front of Yang Qice, begging bitterly
"I beg you, spare my daughter... I can really do anything... I beg you..."
Seeing that Yang Qice didn't say anything, Cai Wenzhao was just about to kowtow, and a red cloak fell on her body, Yang Qice then helped her up, without any words, and directly took Cai Wenzhao's hand and walked out of the tent.
Ben still wanted to resist something, but when he thought of his daughter, Cai Wenzhao could only let Yang Qice hold his hand, and followed him silently with his head down.
"All the Da Zhou women who have been captured here will be sent to Jinting and taken care of in peace."
went out to camp tent, Yang Qice said lightly to Chen Yujue, who was guarding the side.
At this time, Cai Wenzhao slowly raised his head and saw clearly that Yang Qice was wearing a Great Zhou Xuanwu fish scale armor......
Yang Qice let go of Cai Wenzhao's slender hand, stepped onto the war horse, and then stretched out his hand to Cai Wenzhao
"Come on."
Hearing this, Cai Wenzhao stretched out her slender hand with some twisting.
Yang Qice held Cai Wenzhao's slender hand tightly, and carried it to the horse with Lin Yixiao's ease.
"Ahh
I don't know if Cai Wenzhao was frightened or Yang Qice's slender hand hurt, and couldn't help but let out a soft snort.
Cai Wenzhao is such a little woman, and it is no different from Lin Yixiao's first ride with Yang Qice, and what is even more incredible is that both were rescued by Yang Qice in the Beihu camp.
Although his personality is a little similar to Lin Yixiao, there is no similarity in his appearance, which can't help but make Yang Qice puzzled.
——
It was night, and the moonlight was very bright, reflecting the snow, and illuminating the tent.
The night breeze gently lapped against the tent walls. Yang Qice has taken Cai Wenzhao to the camp where the army is temporarily stationed.
Inside the tent, Cai Wenzhao stood tremblingly by the brazier, the faint light of the fire reflected on her white skin, the tattered clothes, faintly revealing the whip marks on her body, and the sludge on her body had already been wiped away by Yang Qice.
When riding a horse with Cai Wenzhao, Yang Qice inadvertently saw the palace sand on Cai Wenzhao's wrist, and mistakenly thought that he was mistaken.
After the soldiers put the water into the tent and retreated, Yang Qice directly picked up the handkerchief in the basin, and in Cai Wenzhao's surprise, he wiped the dirt off her body, and also saw the palace sand on her hand at this moment.
Cai Wenzhao didn't know why Yang Qice became so cold after wiping the skin on his cheeks and hands for himself, and he was suddenly a little scared.
"Won't you explain?"
"What... What..."
"Lin Yixiao is not your daughter."
"She's a concubine's daughter!"
Cai Wenzhao was a little overwhelmed for a while, and her eyes seemed to be deliberately avoiding Yang Qice.
Yang Qice didn't say anything more, and directly pulled out the horizontal knife to pick Cai Wenzhao's clothes open, and his white skin was immediately exposed under the faint firelight.
Cai Wenzhao hurriedly squatted down in a hurry, frightened.
Yang Qice didn't look at her, but said with his back to her
"Didn't you say you'd be happy with anything for your daughter? Now regretted it? ”
"Concubine... The concubine is not..."
Cai Wenzhao's voice trembled slightly with crying.
When the words fell, Cai Wenzhao seemed to be thinking about something, for a long time, a line of tears ran down her white cheeks, and Cai Wenzhao also stood up at this moment, covering her body with her torn clothes in both hands.
"Concubine... I see... Just ask for the general... Let go of the concubine's daughter..."
I thought it was out of the wolf's den, but it turned out to be a sheep in the tiger's mouth.......
Seeing Yang Qice take off his armor with his back to him, she immediately understood what was going to happen next, and she was already desperate, she quietly closed her eyes, and couldn't hold back the tears flowing out of her eyes.
After a while, the imaginary thing did not happen.
After Yang Qice took off his armor, he took off his shirt and draped it on Cai Wenzhao's body.
"What's going on with Shoumiyasha?"
