Chapter 61: The Final Chapter
"Last time, did I cause trouble for my senior brother?" She remembered that after she was injured, Nian Zhaojing retired from the army.
"Then there was another victory, and you don't have to take it to heart." Yufeng presented the potion to her and helped her drink it.
"As long as my senior brother is okay, I will be relieved."
A smile twinked between her brows and eyes, and she lay back on the bed. Cover her with the quilt and walk out of her tent against the wind.
When Luo Jingsheng walked out of the camp tent of the New Year's Awakening, it was already evening.
Seeing him come out, Yufeng hurriedly walked up to him and announced, "Childe, Miss is awake." ”
"Is she okay?" As soon as he heard the news, Luo Jingsheng walked towards Yun Wu's camp, she had been in a coma for so long this time, which really worried him.
"I fell asleep after drinking the medicine, and I guess I'm still asleep at the moment." Yufeng followed behind him, whispering.
When Yun Wu's tent was opened, Luo Jingsheng saw that she had already gotten up, half leaning on the cushion, and when he saw him, Yun Wu's eyes were full of light, and the corners of his lips were full of smiles.
"Xiao Wu, how's it going?" He walked over and sat down in front of her bed.
She smiled, "It doesn't hurt anymore." Seeing Yu Feng go out, she got up soon after, she knew that Luo Jingsheng would come to see her, but she didn't expect that after waiting for so long, he must be busy with military affairs.
"What are we going to do next?"
Yun Wu stared at him, wanting to know how they were fighting.
"As long as Duan Wangchen asks Jin Luan in the south of the town for reinforcements, we will be ready to attack at any time." Their tactics have not changed, but there are many places where they need to be guarded to make sure nothing goes wrong.
"As long as you can win the battle, I'll be relieved."
After she finished speaking, she coughed a few times. Xu waited for him for too long, and he was a little tired.
Luo Jingsheng also saw the tiredness on her face, and hurriedly asked her to lie down, "You just woke up, don't talk too much, wait until your body is healed." ”
She had lost so much blood that her lips were still white.
"Hmm."
She was indeed tired, and she closed her eyes after glancing at him again.
When he came out of Nian Zhaojing's camp, he had already written a letter to Emperor Xuanyuan asking for reinforcements, and the lieutenant general beside him was hurrying back to Chang'an City with a letter.
As soon as their reinforcements arrived, Duan Wangchen would definitely speed up and ask Jin Luan for reinforcements.
After Song Qingge left, Duan Wangchen had been staying in the study, and the bowl of clear soup on the table was already cold. He sat on a wooden chair, his eyes falling on the clear soup.
In my heart, I felt a sense of loss.
Bian Luo walked in from the outside, Duan Wangchen's face didn't look very good, but he still opened his mouth and said, "Master Hou, the soldiers in the camp have been adjusted. You can't be so frustrated, we still have a good chance of winning, and this battle can't be delayed. ”
Duan Wangchen's eyes moved, and he raised his head to look at him, "What have they been doing lately?" "In the days he has been locked in his study, they have not come to make trouble once.
"I heard that he has sent his lieutenant general back to Chang'an to ask for reinforcements, and I think that their reinforcements will arrive in a few days." He told him all the news he had been inquiring about in the past few days.
Duan Wangchen got up from the wooden chair, walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and handed it to him, "Take it and give it to Jin Luan." ”
What he wrote was also a letter asking for reinforcements.
"Do it as soon as possible." There was a hint of anxiety on his face, if their reinforcements arrived later than the New Year's Summons, the odds would be much less.
"Yes!"
Bian Luo didn't dare to slack off, and after taking the letter, he retreated.
Thinking of Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin, he instructed the servant, "Send someone to take care of the eldest lady and the second lady, especially these days, don't let them make any trouble." ”
"Yes." The waiter answered, and then went down to command.
Hearing the movement outside the courtyard, Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin came out of the house, only to see that it was the guards in the house who surrounded their courtyard.
Not long after, Duan Wangchen walked in from outside and looked at the two of them, "You all listen to me, no one can release the eldest lady and the second lady out of the hospital without my order in the past few days, and those who violate the order will be killed!" He said it very simply, and there was no trace of warmth in his words.
Song Qingge stared at him tightly, without a trace of a smile on his face, "Cousin, you still decide to fight Nian Zhaojing to the end?" ”
She thought that Wang's death would wake him up, and she also thought that he locked himself in the study to reflect.
But unexpectedly, he would rather make mistakes again and again.
"That's right, the two of you are both chess pieces in my hands, even if I lose, there are still these two chess pieces of you, I don't worry that Luo Jingsheng and Xuanyuan Jing will be hard with me."
He gave her a cold sneer and turned to leave.
Song Qingge stood in place in astonishment, tears flashing in his eyes.
"Why bother talking to him so much, he's already crazy." Jiang Wanyin came over and helped her, her words were already full of disappointment.
At night, Luo Jingsheng called Yu Feng to him and said to him: "Ah Ge and Jiang Wanyin are still in the palace of Bian Luo, and Duan Wangchen must have watched them very closely these days. I want you to infiltrate the palace, stay with the two of them, and rescue them when the time comes. ”
He had thought about this strategy for a long time, but there was never a suitable time for him to get involved.
Yufeng immediately agreed, "Yes." He turned and left the tent.
Three days later, Nian Zhaojing's lieutenant general came from Chang'an City with reinforcements, and he brought 200,000 troops sent by Emperor Xuanyuan.
And the reinforcements that Duan Wangchen asked for from Jin Luan were still on the way, but fortunately, there were still more than 200,000 troops in his hands.
Moreover, he also has two chess pieces, Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin. No matter how you calculate, he won this game of chess. He didn't know that at that time, Yufeng had already blended in with the guards guarding the courtyard.
According to the previous plan, Nian Zhaojing and Luo Jingsheng first went to attack Zhenbei City with the 250,000 army in their hands, and after luring Duan Wangchen out, he retreated and took the 100,000 troops in his hands to intercept Jin Luan.
When Wu Yangyang's army arrived outside the north of the town, Duan Wangchen was already waiting at the city gate with Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin.
Seeing Luo Jingsheng, he opened his mouth and sneered: "Childe, do you remember who this is?" He took Song Qingge over and stood in front of him.
Luo Jingsheng's eyes flashed, and he held the reins tightly in his hand, "You let go of her!" It can be seen that Song Qingge was pinched by him very painfully, and even his brows were frowning tightly.
"Okay, only if you can attack her, I'll let her go, how about it?" After he finished speaking, he pushed her away with a hard push.
"And her, you'd better go back and tell Xuanyuan Jing that his woman is still in my hands, if he doesn't know what to do again, I can't guarantee that what you bring back is not a corpse."
His face was full of coldness, and he had long since lost his temperature.
Luo Jingsheng and Nian Zhaojing glanced at each other, and then he immediately pulled out the long sword at his waist and shouted loudly: "Kill!" ”
Duan Wuchen didn't expect that they would attack so resolutely regardless of the safety of Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin.
Hooking the corners of his lips, he also shouted coldly: "Release the arrow!" ”
A rain of arrows fell from the city gates, but with the experience of the previous time, their casualties were much reduced, and the city gates were breached in less than an hour.
A trace of panic appeared on Duan Wangchen's face, and he asked Bian Luo sharply, "How long will it take for Jinluan's reinforcements to arrive?" At this rate, they can only hold out for about half a day.
"Two hours to go." Bian Luo twisted his brows and replied.
"You two, take care of them!" Leaving Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin at the city gate, Duan Wangchen picked up his sword and ran down, he didn't want to lose this battle.
"Yes."
The people who guarded them were the palace guards mixed with the wind.
As soon as the city gate was broken, Luo Jingsheng quietly retreated with an army of 100,000, and at that time, the soldiers were in chaos, no one cared about anyone, and no one noticed their direction.
The 200,000 troops brought by Jin Luan were ambushed on the road and intercepted by the army of Luo Jingsheng. Duan Wangchen fought among the enemy army for a long time, but he didn't wait for Jin Luan, he rushed to Bian Luo and asked him loudly, "Where is Jin Luan?" What about reinforcements?! ”
Bian Luo's face was also full of panic, the sky had slowly darkened, and it stood to reason that Jin Luan's reinforcements should have arrived, but now several hours have passed, but there is still no movement at all.
"I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do..."
He looked panicked and didn't dare to look at him.
Duan Wuchen took two steps back, and suddenly, he ran towards the city gate, as long as Song Qingge and Jiang Wanyin were still in his hands, Luo Jingsheng and Nian Zhaojing would not dare to act rashly.
On the city gate, there was only an army of two sides fighting, and the two of them had long been gone.
"What about the Grand Lady? What about the second lady? He grabbed a soldier and asked him coldly.
The little soldier shook his head, and his whole heart was terrified, "Master Hou, the little one, the little one doesn't know." Duan Wangchen snorted coldly and shook him away.
He didn't know that as soon as he stepped down from the city gate, the wind rescued the people from the city gate.
Before it was all dark, they had been defeated.
Nian Zhaojing stood in front of him, his sword was still dripping with blood, "Master Hou, go back to Chang'an City with Ben." In the end, he persuaded him.
Duan Wangchen smiled, his eyes falling on his face, "What about Luo Jingsheng?" He wondered if he had come up with this tactic.
"Childe has already led people to intercept Jinluan's reinforcements, and your reinforcements will not return." Nian Zhaojing raised his eyebrows, but told him the truth.
He smiled again, sadly, "I knew it was his idea. It's just that he didn't expect that he would lose so quickly, or at the hands of Luo Jingsheng.
In his life, he lost to Luo Jingsheng.
"Master Hou, put down the sword in your hand, don't resist anymore." As soon as Nian Zhaojing's words were finished, Bian Luo's voice suddenly came from behind, "None of you should move Master Hou!" ”
He raised the sword in his hand and rushed towards this side, but before he could rush in front of Duan Wangchen, he had already been stabbed to death by the guards guarding outside.
Duan Wangchen looked at him with his own eyes and fell in front of him. The light in his eyes as he looked at him was full of temperature.
He shook his head and said, "No, it shouldn't." The next moment, the long sword in his hand had pierced into his abdomen, and the whole person fell to the ground.
A burst of astonishment flashed in Nian Zhaojing's eyes, and when he walked in front of Duan Wangchen, he had already lost his breath.
When Luo Jingsheng returned to the camp with the rest of the soldiers, there was already a person waiting in front of his tent. He curled the corners of his lips, ran towards her, and called her, "Ah Ge." ”
Song Qingge turned around, and a smile appeared on his face, "Brother Xiao, I'm relieved to see that you're okay." ”
"Good thing you are too." He reached out and took her into his arms. On the way to intercept Jin Luan, he had been worried about her safety, for fear that Duan Wangchen would do something to her.
"That's it."
She leaned into his arms, her words filled with joy.
Yun Wu stood outside the tent and let Yu Feng help him back to the tent. Luo Jingsheng has Song Qingge this time, and there will be no her in his heart.
The next day, after they were in order, they returned to Chang'an City.
Xuanyuan Jing saw that Jiang Wanyin was safe and sound, and a hanging heart fell. Emperor Xuanyuan was very happy, knowing that this time he was able to pacify the two traitors, Duan Wangchen and Bian Luo, all of them relied on Luo Jingsheng.
When Nian Zhaojing recommended Luo Jingsheng to him, Luo Jingsheng stood in front of him with his eyes low, not daring to accept the reward given to him by Emperor Xuanyuan.
"Childe wants something, you might as well say it directly. I promise you, no matter what you say, I will grant your request. Emperor Xuanyuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was very happy.
"The grass people really have a wish, I hope the emperor can achieve it." He still kept his head down.
Emperor Xuanyuan was happy and waved his hand, "Say it." ”
"The grass people want the emperor to redress the grievances suffered by the Xiao and Song dynasties." As soon as Luo Jingsheng finished speaking, he raised his head.
When he met Emperor Xuanyuan's eyes, he saw the panic in his eyes.
"You, what did you say? Emperor Xuanyuan thought that he had heard it wrong, after so many years, how could anyone still dig out the old accounts of the year.
"The grass people want the emperor to redress the grievances suffered by the Xiao and Song dynasties." And he really said it again.
Sensing that something was wrong, Xuanyuan Jing stood up from the side and stood side by side with Luo Jingsheng, "Father, son-in-law also begged my father to redress the grievances of the Xiao and Song dynasties, and return a wish to the son." ”
He bowed his head, his words full of pleading.
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at the two of them in disbelief, they were challenging his authority, if he redressed the grievance back then, it would be equivalent to slapping himself in the face.
"I can satisfy you with everything else, except this one!" His tone instantly became cold.
Luo Jingsheng stared at him and knelt on the ground, "But apart from this, Jingsheng has no other wishes." Jing Sheng is the old man of Xiao Wangfu, Xiao Yunqi. ”
There was a look on his face that looked at death as if he were at home.
"Xiao Yunqi..."
As soon as he heard these three words, Emperor Xuanyuan made a soft voice in his mouth, and he squinted his eyes, trying to see the face in front of him as clearly as possible.
"Like, really like..."
After taking a closer look at Luo Jingsheng, he found that his eyebrows and eyes looked very similar to the high-spirited Xiao Wangye.
"My father was framed back then!" Luo Jingsheng gritted his teeth, and his words were soaked in a little choked.
"Ugh."
After a long time, Emperor Xuanyuan sighed, this unjust case has always been a knot in his heart, but he has always been unwilling to untie it.
"When I knew that the Xiao and Song mansions were wronged, I didn't dare to rehabilitate. I have been sitting in this seat for so long, and I have always been a wise king, but because I am afraid of the power of the two loyal princes, I listened to the slander of the villains in the court, and gave them death, how can this heart be at ease. ”
He lowered his eyebrows, and his words showed a little shame.
"Father, if you know your mistakes, you can change them, and the people of Yan Kingdom will definitely be able to see your sincerity." Seeing that he was shaken, Xuanyuan Jing opened his mouth to persuade him again.
This is what he promised to fall into Jingsheng, if he can win Duan Wangchen, he will intercede for him in front of Emperor Xuanyuan, and ask his father to help him redress the grievances of Xiao Wangfu.
"Stand down."
Emperor Xuanyuan's face showed tiredness, and his tone became a lot lighter.
"Yes."
Luo Jingsheng was stunned, so he had to get up from the ground first.
Walking outside the hall, Xuanyuan Jing opened his mouth to persuade him, "Father and Emperor will definitely think about this matter, and you don't have to worry too much." ”
"The intentions of the four princes, Jing Sheng understands." He was already grateful for helping him like that.
"This king, this king will help you inquire about this matter." After he finished speaking, he walked towards Jiang Wanyin. She had been waiting for him outside for a long time, and had been by his side since she returned.
Luo Jingsheng raised his feet and walked up the steps.
Song Qingge was also already waiting for him outside the palace, and when she saw him walking out with a depressed face, she walked over and took his hand, "Your Majesty, he didn't agree?" ”
He shook his head, his eyes full of loss, "I guess he has to think about it, and we can only wait." He took her by the hand and got into the carriage with her.
When they returned to Changle Mansion, Yun Wu and Yu Feng had already packed their baggage.
"Where are you going?" As soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw the two of them walking outside with their baggage.
"Childe, we're going back to Wuluan Mountain first." Yufeng stepped forward and opened his mouth first.
He looked at Yun Wu, "It's okay, I'm relieved that there is a wind to escort you back." After you go back, don't talk back to Master, you know? He instructed Yun Wu.
"Okay, I got it."
Yun Wu pouted, and there was a hint of displeasure in his words.
Luo Jingsheng smiled, she had always been like this, he was used to it.
"Are you still leaving? If you don't go, I'm gone. Seeing that Yufeng was still standing, she turned over and got on the horse's back first.
"Oh, good."
Yu Feng regained his look, hurriedly turned on his horse, and chased after her. He knew that she was not very happy to see Luo Jingsheng and Song Qingge together.
"Miss, slow down, don't fall." But the more he said this, the more the whip in Yun Wu's hand slapped the horse's back.
Luo Jingsheng twisted his brows, Yun Wu's temperament could not be changed.
"Cloud Dance girl, she likes you very much." Song Qingge stood beside him and said softly.
"I hope she will soon know what I mean for her." He often told Yun Wu about this, but she didn't want to listen to it.
"Hmm."
Song Qingge nodded and walked with him to the mansion.
Without the cloud dance, Changle Mansion is a lot quieter. Song Qingge walked into the East Garden with him, and the gorse inside had long since fallen, leaving only the goldfinch full of eyes.
Just like when she stumbled into this garden.
"If the emperor can redress the grievances of the Xiao and Song Mansions, will you return to Wuluan Mountain?" Sitting in the garden, Song Qingge asked him.
Luo Jingsheng stared at her, "When I went down the mountain, Master had already promised me that he would not interfere with my freedom in the future. After a pause, he spoke softly, "It's just that Master, he has always been my savior, and if he has something to ask me, I will still go back to help him." ”
"Okay."
Song Qingge also stared at him, with tenderness between his eyebrows and eyes.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to sit here and talk to you like this in this life." She thought that they would never cross paths again in this life.
"Providence so."
Luo Jingsheng reached out and gently scraped the tip of her nose. She burst out laughing, and the sound lingered in his ears.
Xuanyuan Jing was really as he promised to fall into the mirror, and sent Qi Yuanzhao every day to pay attention to Emperor Xuanyuan's movements. He also sought several opportunities to persuade him in front of him, but he was afraid that the more he talked, the more disgusting he would be, and then it would be self-defeating.
Five days later, a holy decree came out from the palace, "Back then, Jiang Hechi slandered me in front of me for power and profit, so that the two families of the Xiao and Song Dynasty palaces were unjustly destroyed, and this crime should be punished." I remember that Jiang He has done a lot of work for Yan Guo in the court for so many years, spared him for capital crimes, and imprisoned him in the palace prison, and he will not be allowed to step out of prison for half a step in this life. ”
The notice was posted in Chang'an City for three days, and the people of the entire Yan Kingdom knew that the Xiao and Song mansions were wronged back then, and finally redressed this grievance.
After getting the news, a big stone in Luo Jingsheng's heart finally fell. Song Qingge also burst into tears, "Brother Xiao, thank you." Father and Uncle Xiao are under Jiuquan, and they can finally rest assured. ”
"Hmm."
Luo Jingsheng squeezed her hand and nodded vigorously.
It's just that Jiang Wanyin almost fainted when she heard the news, and she knew that her father had done such a wrong thing.
Fortunately, Du Shi was not punished, so she often went back to accompany her. Xuanyuan Jing also explained to her, reassuring her that the Prime Minister's family would not be implicated in any way in the future.
Now that she has reached this point, she doesn't dare to ask for too much, just ask for Du to be safe.
Luo Jingsheng took Song Qingge to the graves of the two mansions of Xiao and Song, and said to the monuments of the two elders: "Dad, Uncle Song, your grievances have finally been redressed. ”
He and Song Qingge took out the paper money they brought and burned it to comfort their spirits in the sky.
As soon as he returned to Changle Mansion, he saw Xuanyuan Jing's carriage, and Xuanyuan Jing got off the carriage, "Childe, my father said it, to apologize, this is something he gave you." ”
He handed the things given to him by Emperor Xuanyuan to Luo Jingsheng, and then got into the carriage.
Song Qingge walked up to him and glanced at the box in his hand, but didn't ask him what was inside.
Luo Jingsheng also glanced at the box in his hand and carried her into Changle Mansion.
He opened his mouth and said, "Master said, he wants me to return to the Boundless Mountain and succeed me as the head of the family. "This is the news he received yesterday, sent by Yufeng.
"Okay, I'll go back to Wuluan Mountain with you."
Song Qingge looked up at him, and agreed without thinking about it. Luo Jingsheng put his hand on her cheek and stroked it, his eyes full of tenderness.
As soon as the second day dawned, they got into a carriage and hurried towards the mountain.
