Chu Xiaotian frowned, looking at Yun Yun's suddenly pale face, and he didn't know what to say. Maybe as a father, he was too strict, but he didn't do anything wrong, and what he taught them to walk was the right way. Yun Yun really can't have any entanglement with Han Shuo now, he just didn't say it right, and it hurt this girl's heart.

was thinking about whether to comfort her, but the door was suddenly pushed open. Chu Xiaotian was stunned, thinking that the emperor couldn't help but push the door in, but when he turned around, he found that it was Xie Yuchen.

He had seen this man many times, and there had been times when they had fought side by side along the way. But he is as unclear as Zhang Shu, although it feels very familiar to him, but it doesn't make him like it very much.

A manly man, be more open. What is cover-up?

Yun Yun turned his head sideways and saw the eldest brother, and the grievances in his heart were even more serious. If she hadn't told her father about her eldest brother, she would have really wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry.

"Master Xie, this is?" Seeing him walk in front of him, General Chu asked suspiciously.

Xie Yuchen was still panting, as if he had run over. I saw Yun Yun standing pitifully in front of Chu Xiaotian. knew that she must have been trained again.

"Niangniang is just a woman, and when she puts it outside, she is just an ordinary woman who weaves cloth and sews clothes. It is already unfortunate to be born in the Chu family, why should the general be so harsh on her? ”

Lowering his voice, Xie Yuchen's voice sounded rough and low. Chu Xiaotian frowned unhappily when he heard this: "This is the Chu family's housework. Master Xie seems to be too lenient. ”

Yun Yun naturally hid behind his eldest brother, just like when he was a child, he only showed one head to look at Chu Xiaotian. The eldest brother is used to protecting her.

This action made Chu Xiaotian stunned, and he had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it. Just looked at Xie Yuchen.

"The general forgives the sin, the minister has overstepped, and he has forgotten that he is no longer a member of the Chu family." He let go of his throat and looked at his father in front of him in his usual voice. said very calmly: "The reputation of the Chu family and other things have nothing to do with Xie Mou, but sister, Xie Mou still wants it." ”

Chu Xiaotian was shocked, his pupils constricted, and he almost couldn't sit still.

"You ......"

This voice, this voice is clearly ...

"Xie is offended." Xie Yuchen smiled slightly, bowed to General Chu, and resumed his rough voice: "Niangniang should also be tired, she has always known in her heart about right and wrong, and the general might as well discuss with the minister about how to resist the enemy." Han Shuo's army is coming this way. ”

Xie Yuchen, he used such a new identity to come back to life? Before Chu Xiaotian came back to his senses, his body had already stood up first and followed him out.

He is strong, I have heard before that Xie Yuchen came back from the border pass, and he is good at martial arts, loyal and patriotic. He had seen him so many times that he didn't even recognize him.

Took two steps. But it stopped. Chu Xiaotian frowned: "I remember that you made a big mistake, and you should be beheaded." ”

Xie Yuchen looked back at him: "Indeed, it's just that Xie was lucky and got a chance to atone for his sins." So for the rest of your life, you will use it to return it to the royal family, and you will not be embarrassed by your justice, general. ”

Chu Xiaotian twisted his eyebrows, obviously thinking about what was going on in the first place, even he was deceived.

"The general doesn't have to think about the past." The person in front of him understood very well what kind of person he was, and said helplessly: "Since people are not dead, they always have to do things." Xie has not thanked the general for burying Chu Hongyu in the ancestral grave. If you serve the country in the future, you will naturally serve the general. ”

The words are cold, and after some dialogue, there is almost no emotion in it. If an ordinary father finds out that his son is not dead, he will be very excited and happy. It's a pity that his father is Chu Xiaotian, and he may be thinking about whether to bring himself to justice again.

Xie Yuchen was a little sad in his heart, but he was used to it. It's just that he feels sorry for this sister, and his father shouldn't be so cold to her.

"If I knew that you had set up such a situation, the old man would never let your coffin go to the ancestral grave." Chu Xiaotian's face was ugly, and he stared at him and said, "I don't know where the ghost of the dead came from, but he also asked me to be buried in the ancestral grave, which is really a sin." If I can go back one day, I will surely remove the grave. ”

What a stubborn old man, Xie Yuchen sighed and nodded: "Yes, but first of all, let's find a way to recover the world." ”

Han Shuo's march was incomprehensibly fast. It seems that I haven't rested much, all the way? The river went. Rumors say that he is seriously ill, and it is not known whether it is true or not. If it is true, then Han Shuo is dead, such a hurry, it is strange if he is not sick and sick.

What's more, such an agenda will arrive in less than two days? On the riverside.

Chu Xiaotian and Xie Yuchen sink together? Stepping into the council hall, Sima Zhen was already inside, holding a map and looking at it carefully.

"Two Aiqing." Seeing them coming, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, Xie Yuchen was able to save Shen Xin.

"See the emperor." The two of them saluted together, and the emperor said flattened and beckoned them to come over to see.

"Han Shuo is competing with me this time." Sima Zhen smiled and said: "Nearly 230,000 soldiers have been gathered along the way, if these people survive smoothly?" River, that's incredible. ”

Xindu is on high ground, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. But if they can't be stopped in front, and the troops are really coming to the city, Xindu will run out of food, and they will have to surrender within a month.

The river is a natural danger, and he wants to gather everyone to cross it together. It will take half a month. Chu Xiaotian looked at the map and said in a deep voice: "If he is marching and waiting for the people behind, then in this valley, we can ambush first." ”

Finger on? In the valley by the river. The terrain is steep, making it a good place to fight.

"Like Han Shuo pursued us last time, archers and trebuchets can be set up here, the valley is narrow, and at most seven people can pass at a time, and when they pass here, the troops will inevitably be greatly damaged."

"General Chu is right." Sima Zhen nodded: "But first, we must have enough bows, arrows and stones. The boulder is taken from heaven and earth, and it is natural not to worry. And the bow and arrow ... As far as I know, it's very lacking. If it's all used here. Then it will be difficult to defend the city in the future. ”

They lack weapons and other things on their side, although they have been constantly rushing to make them, but they are not as good as those exquisite bows, arrows, knives and guns in Luoyang. Besides, the number is really stretched.

Xie Yuchen thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Speaking of these things, the concubine seems to be the best. Chen always remembered that she had the ability to 'exchange grass for cattle'. ”

The emperor looked at it curiously: "What is 'grass for cattle'?" ”

Chu Xiaotian frowned and pondered, and seemed to have the same idea as Yuchen, so he didn't stop him from continuing.

Sima Zhen knew who Xie Yuchen was from the beginning, so he sat down with great interest to listen to him tell the story before Shen Xin.

"When Niangniang was a child, she played with her ministers, and when she saw a cow passing by on the street, she ...... with Han Bet with people. Almost saying Han Shuo, Xie Yuchen was shocked, and quickly changed his voice and continued: "I said that I would exchange a piece of grass for a cow and come back." ”

Sima Zhen didn't seem to care about his slip of the tongue, and said with a smile: "How can this be? Who can suffer such a big loss. Swap the cow for grass with her? ”

"The ministers also thought so back then." Xie Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth curled: "As a result, Niangniang really did it, she took a piece of grass and coaxed an aunt to exchange it for a bundle of grass." Then she used the bundle of grass to exchange a bundle of firewood for her family's playmate who owed her sugar man on the next street. Then there is firewood for chicks, chickens for hens, hens for lambs, lambs for ewes...... After such a string of exchanges, it was really replaced by a cow in the end. ”

Sima Zhen opened his mouth wide: "Are those people really willing to exchange with her?" ”

Xie Yuchen smiled and nodded: "She is clever, and the people she is looking for either owe her favors or like her very much." In this way, with some coquettish rolling, he finally came back with a cow. ”

Chu Xiaotian didn't appreciate this matter very much, he felt that the exchange was quite unfair, and it was not a legitimate gain. But it is undeniable that the girl has been very smart since she was a child.

"What's the point of the process?" At the beginning, the girl led the cow in the yard, and said happily: "I didn't steal or rob, and finally changed to the cow, wouldn't it be good?" ”

Sima Zhen seemed to be able to see the person's delicate and cute appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "Concubine Ai is really amazing." ”

"Well, so the minister thinks. While we are trying to figure out a way, we also let the mother help with ideas, maybe there will be some unexpected gains. Xie Yuchen said.

"But......" the emperor looked at him in embarrassment: "Concubine Ai ignored me, and said that she never wanted to participate in these things again." I don't want to force her. ”

Xie Yuchen paused, thought about it, and said: "That's not difficult, Niangniang has been competitive since she was a child, and she said that she didn't want to care, but she was heartbroken." Wait for the minister to talk to Niangniang, she let go of the past. Naturally, you can help the emperor. ”

The Emperor sighed and nodded.

"In addition to this valley, there is a river ahead...... "The three of them continued to discuss matters.

Yun Yun sat in the Pujia Palace, holding his chin and listening to Hugh talk about the news outside.

"Taiwei Zhao has been sick recently, and his daughter Zhao has been taking care of him all the time. The slave maid thought that the girl looked too much like the mother. I can't help but pay more attention. Nothing new, though. In addition, Han Shuo's vanguard army has arrived? On the riverside, boats are being prepared. Han Shuo was rumored to be seriously ill in bed, and he never appeared on horseback all the way, all in the car. And he recognized Hanxiao and took her with him this time......"

"Hugh, you don't have to talk to the palace about those things." Yun Yun rubbed his eyebrows: "It's okay to tell the palace about the parents in the market, the palace doesn't want to listen to people and things related to the government." ”

Hugh Yu paused and nodded: "Also, the slave maid told you about the affairs of the young ladies and young masters of each family?" For example, Miss Changge is now in Xiyuan, and she seems to be a lot haggard......"

"Hugh." Yun Yun looked up helplessly.

Half past two o'clock
