Chapter 104: Waiting for the Rabbit

Zhu Qiwen couldn't hold it anymore after crying for a while, and the queen comforted him softly, and didn't allow him to cry anymore, for fear that he would hurt himself.

When Zhu Qichao came in from outside, Zhu Qiwen had already fallen asleep in the queen's arms.

This scene is really glaring, but it is not the first time.

Since he was a child, his second brother has not been in good health, and he can faint when he cries when he is a child, and the queen mother regards him as the root of his life, for fear that when he wakes up one day, others will be gone.

As a result, now that he has reached the crown, he is still hanging half-dead.

But it's not right for you to say that he hangs, he can walk and jump, sometimes cry for a long time and faint, and wake up again after a while.

If he hadn't watched him grow up since he was a child, and he was the brother of his own mother, according to Zhu Qichao's temperament, he would have been ruthless to him a long time ago.

Who knows if he's pretending?

A person who always thinks that he will see Hades tomorrow, and still wants to marry a wife and have children, he is not afraid of dying on a woman's belly one day!

was being ruthless in his heart, and the queen had already glanced at him lightly: "You are here." ”

"Queen Mother," Zhu Qichao asked the Empress for peace, "What's wrong with the second brother?" ”

As a result, he didn't ask, but when he asked, he aroused the queen's tears, and the tears fell desperately as if they were worthless, one after another: "Your second brother ...... him"

She couldn't go on, but the prince was startled.

Could it be that the idea in his heart has come true, and he is really going to die?

But he didn't die on the woman's belly, but in the arms of the queen mother?

Fortunately, before he could ask these words, he heard that the queen had already whimpered: "Your second brother is tired of crying and has already slept, Qi Chao, you can't ignore your brother, he has grown so big with great difficulty, if you don't care about him, no one can care about him!" ”

Zhu Qichao's face was a little strange for a while.

The queen cried so much that her eyes were red: "You also know that this time it was your second brother who highly recommended him, but General Cui suffered a little defeat, so King Qi is not easy to deal with......"

Before she finished speaking, Zhu Qichao's narrow eyes narrowed suddenly: "A small defeat? ”

The crying was even worse, the queen's mouth moved, and finally changed her words: "No, General Cui was so frightened that he ran back to the suburbs of Beijing." ”

"What?!" Zhu Qichao couldn't help but shout.

The queen hurriedly covered his mouth: "Ah, what's your name, don't you think your brother is not miserable enough?" If this matter is known to your father, the life of the person surnamed Cui will definitely not be guaranteed, and how will your brother marry the eldest lady of the Cui family at that time......"

The more she talked, the more sad she became, and the more she said, the more she felt pitiful for Zhu Qiwen: "You said that when you grow up so big, what can Qiwen like, and with someone who doesn't know if there will be tomorrow today, I finally fell in love with a girl." ”

The queen looked at Zhu Qichao with teary eyes: "You are his eldest brother, can't you help him?" ”

"Erchen ......" Zhu Qichao rarely had a feeling of being speechless.

And this feeling will always only be felt when facing the queen mother and his second brother.

There was a crazy jealousy burning in his heart, but the surface naturally couldn't show anything.

Suppressing his dissatisfaction, Zhu Qichao took a deep breath and helped the queen to sit down: "Queen Mother, this is a big deal, do we still have to lie about the military situation?" This is the sin of deception! ”

"That's it," the queen heard this, and the tears that she had finally stopped flooded again, "then what about your second brother?" ”

Die! Wouldn't it be nice to die?

The prince thought in his heart, and there was already a smile on his face: "Queen Mother, the second brother will be fine, victory and defeat on this battlefield are a common thing in soldiers, where are there generals who will never lose a battle?" According to Erchen, he still told his father and sent an additional army to the rescue, which is the right reason. ”

"No way!" As soon as his words fell, the queen hurriedly interrupted him, "This palace does not agree!" ”

After shouting a sentence, the queen cried again and fell on the soft collapse: "You don't care about your brother's life and death if your wings are stiff, if it weren't for Qiwen's weak body when he was born, your father would not have made you the crown prince so early." ”

"Your brother has suffered so much over the years, how can you be so ruthless!"

"We're not lying about the military situation, but we're not reporting it for the time being, you go and ask your father to send reinforcements, General Cui will turn back the same way, as long as he has made military merits, he can come back."

"You don't want to do such a thing, you have such a bad idea!"

"Why did this palace give birth to such a son as you......"

The queen cried and scolded, crying so much that she woke up Zhu Qiwen who was lying on the collapse, and she didn't react for a while.

Seeing that the queen was still crying, Zhu Qiwen first persuaded two sentences, and then cried with him after two sentences.

The middle palace cried, and those who didn't know thought that the emperor was dead!

Zhu Qichao was so crying that he had a headache, so he had to come down temporarily, as if he was chasing a fierce beast behind him, and he fled.

The queen was still sobbing and hitching, hugging Zhu Qiwen sadly.

Zhu Qiwen's fair face was gently buried on the queen's shoulder, and he turned his back to the door, facing the house, so no one saw his already cold look, and the fierceness in his eyes.

Although the coach was not there, Chang Ziqing did not retreat and was still stationed on the periphery of Binzhou.

Jiang Mengyun climbed up the city tower and took a look.

The camp of the other party was very neatly stationed, and although the soldiers moved around from time to time, they were not disorderly, and seemed to patrol at regular intervals.

Xu Yacheng was eager to try beside him: "How about it, Your Highness, do we want to capture them?" ”

Jiang Mengyun shook his head, didn't say a word, and led people back to the camp again.

Mo Ziqi was studying the map, and the county magistrate on the side was telling him about the state of Ning Jun some time ago.

Seeing her come in, Mo Ziqi raised his hand to interrupt the chatter of the old county magistrate and asked, "How?" ”

Jiang Mengyun shook his head: "Strictly guarded, iron bucket general." ”

Mo Ziqi nodded: "Sure enough." ”

The old county magistrate has already told him about the other party's movements these days.

Chang Ziqing's troops surrounded Binzhou City, which seemed to be menacing, but it was very strange that they only guarded the city gate, and occasionally came to harass twice, and there was no serious intention of attacking the city at all.

Before in Liaozhou, it was reasonable for Cui Shi'an to procrastinate.

The city of Liaozhou is difficult to attack, and there is no appropriate time, and if you go to attack the city, you will only suffer heavy losses.

But Binzhou is different.

They have crossed the river and arrived at the city gate, which is not as high and thick as Liaozhou, and as long as the cloud ladder is set up, it is almost an instant matter to capture the city.

But not only did they not move, but they dragged on until now.

Why is that?

Jiang Mengyun sat down and took a sip of hot tea: "I guess Cui Shi'an gave the order to give Chang Zi Qingming an excellent chance, but he could only stop there and not move." ”

She narrowed her eyes, "If this guess is correct, we have a way to deal with him." ”

Mo Ziqi didn't say anything and looked up at him.

King Qi and his wife have a good heart, and they can guess what the other party thinks with one look, but they are bitter for the old county order.

The old county commander looked at them inexplicably, confused: "What do you mean?" ”

Jiang Mengyun smiled: "Don't worry, adults, we are here for these things, and we will help you defend Binzhou City." You don't have to worry about anything else, help us prepare some oil. ”

"Oil?" The old county commander touched his beard and said strangely, "Do you want to stir-fry the two highnesses?" Then the lower official asked the chef below to stop stewing vegetables today, and get some stir-fry for the two of you to taste? ”

"No," Jiang Mengyun said with a smile, "about ten barrels of oil." ”

Ten barrels of oil is easy to say, but the actual amount is still very large, especially Jiang Mengyun wants the kind of barrel the size of a rice tank.

The old county commander probably guessed that this was going to be used against the Ning army, and he didn't dare to collect it with great fanfare, so he only let his subordinates go to the people to collect it quietly.

As a result, the news spread in private, everyone knew that this was what King Qi and his wife wanted, and they gave generously, and a few people could not find anyone to secretly collect oil, so they poured the oil in a bottle and placed it directly at the door of the camp.

Xu Yacheng got up early in the morning to practice and saw it, and was startled, thinking that someone was going to harm them.

Difficult task, strangely quick to complete.

Mo Ziqi and Jiang Mengyun quietly collected the oil, and let Xu Yacheng and the servant guard on the city wall for a whole day, figuring out the route of the other party's patrol, and when the time was ripe, they would accurately sneak attack the fire attack.

It's a tried-and-true strategy.

Especially against people like Chang Ziqing, who just want to defend and don't want to attack.

If he wants to defend, he needs enough food and grass, and there is no material to receive in the rear, as long as a fire burns his baggage camp, there are only two possibilities.

First, he was forced to withdraw his troops, and only when Ningguo reinforcements could he make a large-scale counterattack.

Second, he was forced to attack the city and enter the city to grab grain and grass in order to ensure his survival.

Chang Ziqing sat in the big tent, and the guards hurriedly rushed in: "General, there are people on the other side's city wall watching us all the time. ”

"All the time?" Chang Ziqing narrowed his eyes, "How long?" ”

"I've been watching it all day!" The guards felt that something was very wrong with this, "They didn't send out troops and horses, and they didn't even have normal clamour, so they just watched it all day." Someone changed shifts in the middle of the shift, but they kept looking at us. ”

Hearing this, Chang Ziqing closed the military book in his hand.

He has been leading troops to fight all year round, and has always been known as the second thousand-year-old, so that he always habitually attaches importance to all enemies.

If he is also like that Cui Shi'an, he has no one in his eyes, this time he is only afraid of more evil and less auspicious.

The Jiang family is really all generals.

When Jiang Zhengdao and Jiang Yunxi and Jiang Yunfeng were alive, he couldn't compare, but now that they are dead, he won't even be able to fight Jiang Mengyun!

If he really loses this battle, he will die of shame without others laughing at him again.

Chang Ziqing stood up suddenly: "Send me heavy troops to surround the baggage camp, and everyone is on standby, pretending to leave a gap on the right side." ”

He suddenly laughed: "The last time they used a trick against General Cui, they would use it as an official, wouldn't they use it as an official?" Wait for the rabbit, and the official will try to succeed. ”

The guards were taken aback by this: "The Liang army wants to attack our baggage camp?!" ”

"Yes." Chang Ziqing's face was expressionless.

The guards were so shocked that they were eager to run out: "How can this be done, in case the baggage battalion is captured by them, the grain and grass are destroyed, and our 20,000 troops have no food and drink, it is not defeated without a fight!" ”

Chang Ziqing laughed: "So you have guarded the baggage camp well." ”

He took two steps forward and pondered: "Since it is here to sneak attack the baggage camp, there will definitely not be many people, maybe it is King Qi who is taking the lead, after all, his martial arts are the strongest among them." ”

Stretching out his hand, Chang Ziqing pointed to the grain and grass not far away.

"If we arrange it properly, we may be able to take down King Qi in one fell swoop. Taking down Mo Ziqi is a great achievement, and Cui Shi'an just wants to take this battle merit for himself, and it is not so easy. ”

The guard nodded in response, and was about to go out when he was called back again.

"Then Jiang Mengyun is scheming, I'm afraid it's not that simple, the baggage camp is guarded, and important places such as armory hangers must also be guarded, and a few sentinels are sent to keep an eye on it, as long as the other party has any movement, come over and report immediately!"

There was more and more heroic air in the chest of the guards, and they only felt that General Chang was really powerful.

Lang Sheng should be, and then he turned around and went out.

Chang Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but be a little complacent.

If you want to deal with him Chang Ziqing, it's not that easy.

Jiang Mengyun ordered Xu Yacheng and the waiter to take turns to watch it for a day, and they confirmed that they had really watched it for a day, and they did not gather at the camp until the early morning of the next day.

Mo Ziqi sat on the top, and Jiang Mengyun drank tea beside him.

Xu Yacheng had bruises right now, nodded and dozed off: "Your Highness, sleepy, trapped me, watching that group of people walk around, I don't see me asleep now, but I can be regarded as living up to expectations, and I have already recorded their movements." ”

Jiang Mengyun put down the teacup: "Wrote it down?" ”

"That's right," Xu Yacheng was eager to try, "Does Your Highness want to listen?" ”

As a result, Mo Ziqi waved his hand at him: "No, you have worked hard today, go back early to rest, if there is something, this king will send someone to call you." ”

"Huh?" Not to mention Xu Yacheng, even the servant was stunned for a moment, "Don't the two highnesses want to know their arrangements?" ”

"Yes," Mo Ziqi said, "but not now, that Chang Ziqing is not Cui Shi'an, they are people who march regularly, and someone must already know about your actions." Today you have seen a day, and from tomorrow they will change. ”

"Then ......," the waiter wondered, "do you need to read it again tomorrow?" ”

"Not yet." Mo Ziqi shook his head, "In two days." ”

Here Xu Yacheng and the servant had to go back to rest first, until the sky was getting dark, the moon was on the branches, Mo Ziqi and Jiang Mengyun fell asleep, and the Ning army camp was very nervous.

Chang Ziqing didn't sleep well, and he was a little surprised: "How is it outside?" Did the Liang army come to attack the camp? ”

The guards were taken aback by him and hurriedly rushed over: "No, no, it's quiet outside." ”

Chang Ziqing couldn't sleep more and more, so he simply approved his clothes and went outside to look.

The gate of Binzhou City is closed, although there are soldiers on duty, but there are only sporadic fires, and the city is indeed very quiet.

But the quieter it is, the more likely it is to make mistakes.

He didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and passed on the order: "Hold on to tonight, no one can relax in the slightest!" ”

Jiang Mengyun is scheming, is it just a false shot during the day?

Chang Ziqing finally became a little irritable, but even if he knew that the other party might be a false shot, he had to cheer up.

What if not!
