Qiu Gang, the king of Zhenbei, started to act earlier than they budgeted.

He adopted the method of encroachment, and did not attack directly to the south, but first attacked several small cities near the northern frontier.

At the moment when Ling Tiancheng was talking to Concubine Yi, the small city had already become Qiu Gang's bag.

The urgent report at the border gate was still on the way, but they knew the news one step ahead.

But this news can't be spread out for the time being, in that case, it will expose Concubine Yi, and it will also remind King Zhenbei.

Ling Tiancheng sat in front of a bronze mirror, watching from the mirror as Zhuang Siyan combed his hair smoothly and pinned it to the top of his head.

In the mirror, he still looks cold, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a little tenderness in his eyes.

The situation is too chaotic, every day is spent in busyness and calculation for him, and only when facing this little woman, the peace and happiness born from the bottom of his heart will make him feel the gentleness in this world.

He stretched out his hand and pulled Zhuang Siyan's hand over: "I expected that Qiu Gang would not wait until the autumn queen, and he would definitely act in advance, although it would make our time tighter, but it was not unprepared, you don't have to worry." ”

Zhuang Siyan shook his head: "I'm not worried, although Qiu Gang is good at calculation, he may not be able to count you over." ”

Ling Tiancheng raised his head, raised his head slightly, looked at her and smiled: "I have so much confidence." ”

Zhuang Siyan smiled back: "That's for sure, you are the man I chose, how can it be bad?" However, there is one thing you do that is too unauthentic. ”

Ling Tiancheng asked with a smile, "Did Qiu Gang not let you see him when he came to Beijing?" ”

When these words reached Zhuang Siyan's heart, she simply dragged a chair over and sat down next to Ling Tiancheng.

In the bronze mirror, the two sat side by side, their hands still clasped together, a pair of vigorous and powerful, and a pair of delicate white and soft.

Zhuang Siyan looked at it and laughed.

Ling Tiancheng didn't know why she was laughing, and looked at her sideways.

She raised her hand, pulled his face back to the front of the mirror, looked inside, and said, "It's a pity that there are no cameras here, otherwise we can take a picture like this." ”

Ling Tiancheng didn't understand what he said, but from her eyes, he still saw something, and he said, "When I'm free, can I draw a picture for you?" ”

Zhuang Siyan knew that he was talented, and he sighed with admiration just because he wrote that handwriting, but the two had been together for so long, and they had never seen him draw.

was about to ask again, but Ling Tiancheng spoke first: "Let's not talk about this matter first, when the painting is finished, I will give it to you, now let's talk about Qiu Gang's problem." ”

Only then did Zhuang Siyan put his mind back and asked, "Yes, Qiu Gang was in the capital for a long time at that time, and his daughter had entered the palace, why didn't you let me go to see him?" ”

Ling Tiancheng lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a bottomless hue inside.

His pupils are particularly black, different from everyone Zhuang Siyan has seen, the black is covered with a layer of light, so when he usually looks at his eyes, he always ignores the color of black, but is attracted by the bright light inside first.

Only by staring at him and looking down, did I find that his eyes were like a pool of water, and there was no bottom to be seen.

At this time, although Ling Tiancheng looked at Zhuang Siyan, she didn't know what he was thinking, and she didn't know what he would say next.

It's just that with the experience of the two of them, she feels that the next words should be very important.

Ling Tiancheng said: "Qiu Gang has already understood all the people in the capital, including Ye Yuanpei and me.

He has been planning for so many years, the purpose is to beat me down, and he himself sits in this position.

But why didn't he start until the entire court was cleaned up by me a few years ago? ”

Zhuang Siyan couldn't answer this question, these big conspirators, what she had in her head was something she couldn't understand.

She just loves money, and she is very content, almost fine, and basically doesn't force too much.

But these bigwigs are different, they want power, they want the country, and they want something that Zhuang Si will not think about.

Ling Tiancheng saw that she didn't speak, and then continued: "He has been in Northern Xinjiang, although he knows me in various ways, but he has never met anyone, so he doesn't believe in hearsay.

When I went to Beijing that time, I said that I asked him to come, but it was better to say that he wanted to come on his own, and the purpose was, of course, to get to know me better, including the people who are now used by the DPRK and China.

He saw it, so when he went back, he started a war with the Northern Barbarians.

It was a fluke that I could come back alive, and according to Qiu Gang's algorithm, he would have left me in Northern Xinjiang no matter what. ”

Ling Tiancheng was very calm when he said this.

For him, those things are in the past, and now they are just memories, and memories are all to be narrated, without emotion.

Zhuang Siyan listened to the anger.

She suddenly withdrew her hand, and the person also got up from the chair, her eyes widened, and she stared at Ling Tiancheng from a high place and asked, "You knew it when you went, right?" ”

Before Ling Tiancheng could answer, she had already burst out: "Are you stupid?" Isn't it stupid? Knowing that he colluded with the Northern Barbarians to kill you, are you still going? Do you know that we already had children at that time, in case you have three longs and two shorts, what will I do with the children? ”

He took a short breath, didn't give Ling Tiancheng the slightest chance to reply, and said: "Yes, you know, when you left, I was already pregnant, you stinky man, you don't care about our life or death at all, I still follow you with all my heart, but you just want me to be widowed." ”

Ling Tiancheng: "......"

He's talking about serious things, how did he get into her mouth and be crooked in an instant?

He looked at Zhuang Siyan in surprise, watched her scold and start beating herself, and suddenly felt distressed: "I'm sorry......"

"I'm sorry, that's it? You broke my heart, I'm sad, do you know? ”

Ling Tiancheng didn't know before, but looking at her at the moment, it was as if he suddenly realized that he might have really done something particularly wrong before.

He was only worried about Zhuang Siyan before, afraid that she would meet a strong enemy when she went out, so he sent all the powerful internal guards around him to her;

I was afraid that she would suffer hardship, so I would rather cut down on food and clothing in the palace, and save the silver for her use;

I'm afraid that she will go out and play crazy and don't want to come back, so I often have to set up a ban on her.

In these things, he thought about Zhuang Siyan's preferences, but he didn't think about her worries.

In other words, the past experience made him habitually put this little woman's worries at the bottom.

Now that the two of them were facing each other, looking angry, Ling Tiancheng was happy in his heart.

He took Zhuang Siyan's hand, and when he saw that she was about to shake off angrily, he hurriedly put his other hand on it: "I sincerely apologize to you, there will be no more such things in the future." ”

It was originally a good thing, but as soon as he said this, Zhuang Siyan's fire couldn't be suppressed, and it burned even more vigorously: "Hey, if I don't say it, you're going to do it again, aren't you?" Ling Xuan, let me tell you, where are you going in the future, who will you meet, what will happen, it is best to tell me clearly in advance, so that I can also prepare in advance, if this happens again, I will tell you, I don't want you when you come back. ”

Ling Tiancheng really annoyed her, took the person into his arms, coaxed left and right, his face was close to her face, and his voice gently and slowly blew into her ears: "I really know that I am wrong, I will not do this next time, if you are still angry, can you beat me?" Or if you want compensation, just tell me. ”

Zhuang Siyan was upset by the hot air he blew out, and said while avoiding him: "Compensation, what can you make up for me?" People who don't know think that we are in the palace, and we have endless silver to spend all day, and I don't know about you? The treasury is empty, and they are waiting to get some money for it. ”

"Then it's good to find me, you can relieve your anger." As Ling Tiancheng spoke, he grabbed her hand and hit him.

Zhuang Siyan really hit him a few times, and then put his hand down.

In the end, it was not a taste in his heart, and it was not that he could really fight well, he broke out of his arms and took a super long deep breath before suppressing the emotions just now.

"Where did we just say? You're all mad, really. ”

Ling Tiancheng didn't dare to talk about this matter again, and hurriedly said: "Speaking of Qiu Gang's matter of asking me to go to Northern Xinjiang, he knows a lot now, and he even knows exactly what kind of tactics I will use with him.

Ye Yuanpei's side was the same, although I don't know what happened to the two of them in Northern Xinjiang at that time.

But according to Qiu Gang's temperament, he must be trying to recover him while touching his old bottom. ”

Zhuang Siyan smiled in a cold voice: "Heh, did he carve a boat to ask for a sword?" Ye Yuanpei went to Northern Xinjiang a few years ago, after he came back from there, he went to Jincheng and Pingyang Pass, he was growing up, but Qiu Gang has always been in Northern Xinjiang, with what he knew about you, do you want to turn over the clouds? ”

She said angrily, and pulled Ling Tiancheng out and said: "And you, it was more than a year ago that you came back from Northern Xinjiang, and during this time, I saw you reading the military book, are all those things in vain?"

Not to mention fighting Qiu Gang this time, you don't have to go to the battlefield, even if you go, it will definitely be tens of millions of times better than what he originally estimated, why does he think he can win?

I haven't met him before, but you know a little bit about him.

If he is honest, he will stay in the north and stay still, and maybe he will live for two more years, and now that he has moved, let him have no return.

Can he buy the people in Northern Xinjiang, and can he buy the people of the entire Dasheng Dynasty?

In my opinion, even the people of northern Xinjiang must really listen to him, and the news you have heard is nothing but a rumor spread by his heart, and the purpose is to disturb you, and you can benefit from it. ”

Yang Yang said a bunch of words, almost stunned Ling Tiancheng.

Putting aside the fact that he liked her, he said this to her, Ling Tiancheng also admired her very much.

Although she is a woman and has lived in the inner courtyard of the deep palace for a long time, she not only understands the outside world, but also grasps it accurately.

The most rare thing is that she will not be flustered like ordinary women when she encounters things.

She always thinks of a way first, as if she has a way to solve everything.
