Chapter 190: The siege battle has not stopped, and the cause and effect are buried here
"You are generous, how about lowering the general's salary by two cents per catty?" His eyes were empty, but he was still saying so in his mouth.
Chu Feichen's face collapsed: "If it is two pennies lower per catty, it will really make my little brother bankrupt." Second sister, don't worry about this, the doctor said that your body is not very good, and you have to take care of it for a long time. ”
Yun Yun nodded.
"The emperor is really, knowing that you are restless, he should lock you in the palace and not release you." ‘
Speaking of Sima Zhen, Yun Yun smiled: "He is pampering me, although I don't know why, but it probably means to make me do whatever I want." ”
Chu Feichen raised his eyebrows: "This brother-in-law is good, although you don't necessarily like him as much as you like Han Shuo." But he is more reliable than Han Shuo. ”
Chu Feichen didn't know what happened in the middle, but now it seemed that it was difficult for the second sister and Han Shuo to be together. The emperor's brother-in-law is not bad.
Yun Yun began to wander again, was carried back to the yard and put away, drinking the medicine in a daze and not speaking. It's just that Chu Feichen stopped him when he was about to write a letter. Take a pen and write it yourself.
The battle report spread that the Korean army attacked the city eight times in a month, but failed to break the city. Han Shuo's side is in truce, and there is not enough food and grass. Wait for supplies. Sima Zhen's side is not going to be easy, the bow and arrows are running out, and the grain and grass are also running out. The porridge that the soldiers drank recently has become thinner and thinner.
"Master Jiang is on the way, and the grain and grass will arrive soon." Hu Tian arched his hand to the people on the seat: "The emperor doesn't have to worry too much. Take care of your dragon's body. ”
Sima Zhen coughed lightly twice, and subconsciously grabbed to the side, but he was empty.
Shen Xin hasn't come back yet.
"Well, as long as there is food, it will be easy to do." The emperor said in a deep voice: "If General Chu's side can complete the task. Xindu is still saved. ”
What do you do when you just save it? His palms were empty, and his heart was empty.
He suddenly wanted to see her, to see the tenderness in her eyes when she smiled, and to see the way she was struggling but telling him it was okay.
His contemplation, I don't know when it became so important, so important that he couldn't hold on anymore when she wasn't around.
Coughing violently a few times, Sima Zhen pinched the handkerchief and threw it away rather irritably.
Han Zihu is really a cunning fox.
Two days later, Jiang returned to Xindu, bringing with them the food they needed most, as well as a handwritten letter from Yun Yun.
The emperor took it and saw that the characters should be written with his left hand, but he didn't know when he practiced very delicately.
"My emperor personally enlightened. The concubine met her long-lost brother in Qiancheng, who was in poor health and is now temporarily living in his house. She looked at the word as if she were standing in front of him. Sima Zhen smiled slightly, and then looked down.
"When the concubines recover one or two, they will definitely come back and fight side by side with the emperor."
Side by side? The emperor smiled contentedly, he liked the word. Shen Xin is with him, and he will feel that he is not afraid of anything.
Then he wrote about some things in Qiancheng and the cost of grain and grass. He looked at them all. When his eyes fell on the amount and amount of grain and grass, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Jiang Aiqing, did Concubine Ai write the wrong number?" The emperor pointed to the letter in disbelief and asked Jiang Suiliu: "How can those silver coins buy so much grain?" ”
Jiang Suiliu also laughed when he heard this: "The minister doesn't know how Niangniang did it, but the number is indeed correct." Lord Taiwei has already asked the rest of the money to be paid to be transported to Qiancheng. ”
Sima Zhen was stunned for a while, and then laughed: "How did I forget, she has natural good luck and a brain that can move. ”
Calculating the price in this way, it is simply a clear grab.
Jiang Suiliu didn't speak again, nor did he say anything about Chu Feichen's 20,000 stone grain gift.
Niangniang said that this child does not need to tell the emperor anymore. She had already made him fall off the rockery once, and what she owed him had already been repaid.
With grain and grass, Xindu rebuilt the tools for defending the battle, and the morale was greatly boosted. However, the Korean army seems to have changed its strategy and guarded the new capital with heavy troops, but it divided several armies and took the cities around the new capital one by one, as if to isolate the new capital.
This battle was difficult to fight, Sima Zhen's physical condition was getting worse and worse, and Hu Tian couldn't help but ask the imperial doctor several times why the emperor's health was not good. The imperial doctor just shook his head and said that the conditioning was not enough.
Listening to Chu Feichen talk about the war situation, she rested in Qianfu for a month, and Young Master Chu gave her all precious medicinal materials to eat, and the dead could eat and live. After the doctor finally assured that no matter how much he ran around, the child would not have a problem, and then he got out of bed and planned to leave for Xindu.
However, before she could get into the car, there was news. The emperor came to a thousand cities.
"What's going on?" Slightly shocked, how could a good person come to Qiancheng? Don't you have to keep the new one?
"Probably the reason why Xie Rong is leading his troops to capture Qiancheng." Chu Feichen said casually: "Qiancheng is the rear of the grain supply, and it is not uncommon for them to come and cut it off, and the emperor himself will come to protect it." ”
Yun Yun frowned when he heard this. But after a month, is the battle so fierce?
There was some uneasy commotion in Qiancheng, and the people fled one after another.
Yun Yun stood at the gate of Qianfu and waited, she had been drowsy and wanted to vomit recently. After standing for a while, he was about to fall asleep on Chu Feichen.
There was a warm embrace that embraced her whole person, and the clear and beautiful voice recalled her senses: "Aifei, why are you trapped like this?" ”
When he opened his eyes, the emperor's eyes were full of warmth: "The weather is cold, what should I do if I catch a cold?" ”
Chu Feichen looked at the rumored emperor's brother-in-law dumbfounded, and was frightened by his gentle appearance and took three steps back.
Isn't it, how can the second sister be such a gentle man? Chu Feichen was shocked. Although he felt that this picture looked exciting, he subconsciously always remembered the appearance of the second sister and Han Shuo standing opposite each other in the peach blossom forest. One is cold, the other is grinning. Although there is no love, it makes him feel used to it.
The emperor's brother-in-law is too gentle...
"Well, I haven't slept well lately." Yun Yun smiled at him, and reached out to re-tie the knot of his somewhat loose cloak: "Go in and talk, it's cold outside." ”
Young Master Chu's chin was about to fall to the ground, and the second sister was so gentle to the emperor's brother-in-law, it wasn't the dominatrix appearance when she was chasing him!
It must be that he hasn't seen his second sister for too long, so he doesn't know how she usually gets along with her brother-in-law. You should get used to watching it, right? Chu Feichen muttered and followed them in.
"By the way, this is Chu Feichen. He is also a grain merchant in a thousand cities. After talking to the emperor for a while, he remembered that there was a younger brother behind him, and hurriedly pulled him over to introduce him.
Sima Zhen raised his eyebrows, finally understanding what was going on with the grain price. The second son of the Chu family turned out to be a wealthy businessman, which is really interesting.
"The grass people have seen the emperor." Chu Feichen saluted in a proper manner.
"Your own family, you don't have to be polite." The emperor stretched out his hand to help him up, coughed lightly, and said, "I also want to thank you for taking care of Shen Xin. ”
Chu Feichen smiled: "My own family, no thanks." The emperor just gave the grass people a plaque. ”
Yun Yun rolled his eyes: "It's your abacus that you are fine." ”
"No business, no treachery, but you said." Young Master Chu smiled: "Let's talk about my nephew..."
As soon as these two words were mentioned, the instep of the foot was stepped on fiercely. Yun Yun turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Second brother really doesn't have a long memory. ”
Chu Feichen grinned in pain, and then remembered that the second sister from the family had instructed that she should never tell the emperor about her pregnancy.
He wondered why, but he agreed. Isn't that a slip of the tongue?
"Nephew?" The emperor looked at him curiously.
"Nephew... It is the abbreviation of the outside business, and the businessman is easy to speak. Chu Feichen wiped his sweat and smiled over.
Sima Zhen felt that this child was a little strange. However, it is normal for someone to be gifted and behave strangely.
"Did the emperor personally come to Qiancheng to defend the city?" Yun said: "The concubine is thinking about returning to the new capital. ”
The emperor hooked his lips and smiled, his fingers lightly brushed her eyebrows, and sighed: "If I say that I just want to come to see Concubine Ai, will Concubine Ai be annoyed?" ”
Yun Yun was stunned for a moment, and then took his hand: "Don't joke, the emperor is going to war, Qiancheng is going to war, isn't it?" ”
What a woman who doesn't understand the amorous feelings. Sima Zhen nodded helplessly: "It's almost there." ”
He didn't worry about her. So pick it up in person. This time it was really he who was willful, but she didn't know.
Looking at the letter she wrote, he really wanted to reply, "Mo is blooming, but you can return slowly." But I was afraid that she would run back without regard for her body. It's not. I still ran here with my own eyes.
"There is no natural danger in Qiancheng, if Xie Rong leads heavy troops, there is a great chance of being captured." Yun Yun was a little worried: "What can I do about this?" ”
The emperor didn't answer, but looked around and praised: "This mansion is good, it's very warm. It's always been cold here in Qiancheng, and it should snow in early winter. ”
Chu Feichen didn't understand how he said that the weather was going up, so he could only smile and say: "You can still live in people, Xindu is as cold as Qiancheng, when the emperor and Niangniang go back, I'm afraid they should wear thicker." ”
He pursed his lips and looked at the emperor.
"Don't be annoyed." Sima Zhen looked at her like this, and chuckled: "I'm always worried about state affairs, it's hard to get out of it, so Concubine Ai will give me a vacation." Let's go out for a walk. ”
Her heart was very complicated, she listened to the battle report, listened to the emperor's defense of the city, and thought that Sima Zhen must be more kingly than before, and more ambitious in the world.
But I never thought about it, but now that I look at it, he is softer. It's not so much like an emperor as a hermit who looks down on everything. Yun Yun was curious about what was going on, as soon as she came back from Han Ying, he had always been like this. He clearly tried to defend the city, but he didn't care much about the war.
Is he going to give up?
This thought flashed, and Yun Yun quickly patted his forehead. No way, he couldn't give up. Even if the emperor wanted to, the Manchu civil and military would not allow it. Besides, Sima Zhen is not a person who will give up halfway and give up lightly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to lie on his back for so many years.
So, what is he hiding from her?
See you tomorrow, it's big, the first shift is 12:00, the second shift is 14:00, and the third shift is 15:30
