Chapter 729: Thorn Rose
Jin Er Mazi had a bitter face.
The Sea King wants the northern frontier, then everyone can see it, but the northern frontier is too far away from them, and it is impossible to take it by force, after all, if it really fights, it is the fortifications of the northern frontier that are rotten, and it is the northern barbarians who are happy.
“…… I try as much as I can. ”
Fang Ruohua chuckled: "It's not difficult, Bai Shao will be ours, and of course Northern Xinjiang is also ours." ”
She pondered for a moment, "As for the evidence of King Ming's collusion with the Northern Barbarians...... I recently got a piece of news, there is a most mysterious thorn rose under the command of King Ming, which is the most loyal, but recently he suddenly had a conflict with King Ming, defected, this person, it is very likely that he has important evidence of collusion between King Ming and Beiban. ”
He also knew about the so-called Thorn Rose, but he had only heard a little rumor that they were spies raised by King Ming, and no one knew their names, ages and appearances except for a few people.
They have been carefully cultivated since childhood, are proficient in camouflage, have multiple identities, and directly obey the orders of King Ming......
If you can really master a thorn rose, there is a lot to do.
Jin Er Mazi was in good spirits, and when he and the Sea King discussed hard for a long time, came up with seven or eight sets of action plans, left the center of the lake, and were about to go to work, he suddenly came back to his senses and slapped his forehead.
“…… I knew that His Royal Highness the Sea King must have other intelligence agencies besides our intelligence room. ”
He was not angry, but a trace of pride floated from the depths of his heart.
His Royal Highness the Sea King has the ambition to fight for the world, so he will pay so much attention to intelligence collection from the beginning.
As the master of one party, it is impossible to have only one eye and one ear, if he really has one intelligence power, then he will not dare to do it, after all, Jin Er Mazi himself is very self-aware, and his ambition is not too big.
Outside Linchuan County
Nanfeng Ancient Temple
This nunnery was built in the ninth year of Chen Yongen, when Lord Chen and his beloved daughter Princess Pingjiang passed through Linchuan County, and Princess Pingjiang, who was only 21 years old, suddenly decided to become a monk, cut off her long hair, and swore to convert to Buddhism, so as not to cause trouble in her life.
Lord Chen was helpless, but he loved his daughter, so he had to order someone to build a nunnery no less than the princess's mansion.
Speaking of which, it has been nearly 200 years since then.
In the past, the incense was at its peak, and the Pingjiang Nunnery, which was very large-scale, has long been dilapidated, and the deserted people are extremely rare, and there are only a few shelves left, and you can still see the appearance of the year.
Xie Lan dug out the arrow at the shoulder blade, and after using the medicine, it didn't hurt much, but half of his body was paralyzed and weak.
She barely closed the window to block out some of the wind and rain outside, and turned against the wall to look at the already mottled idol.
I don't know if it's because of the state of mind, or when it was first built, this nunnery is not very serious, she always feels that the clay statue is not dignified or sacred, but brings out some depression and melancholy.
"Huh."
Xie Lan sneered, reached out and touched his hot forehead, struggled to sit up, took out a handful of herbs from his pocket, stuffed it in his mouth and chewed and swallowed.
The bitter taste made the tongue unconscious.
When the princess was thirteen years old, she married Lord Rong as a side concubine, and eleven years later, Lord Chen won the battle of Longyuan Valley and welcomed back his beloved daughter.
The gentlemen respect Princess Pingjiang very much, and they always analyze those eleven years in detail.
It was indeed a glorious eleven years.
A woman who has made a great contribution to her homeland in a foreign land.
She was also very envious of Princess Pingjiang when she was a child, but later, she gradually understood that the life of that princess was not good at all.
In the past eleven years, she sacrificed love, sacrificed three sons and one daughter, and collected intelligence for Chen Guo, and the final result was only to win a war.
When she returned to her home country, she found that she didn't know how to live.
This is obviously the place where she was born and raised.
She can obviously live her life like when she was a child, reading, riding, and jujuing.
But she couldn't do it anymore.
Later, Princess Pingjiang took refuge in Buddhism, but unfortunately the Bodhisattva couldn't save her, and nothing could save her.
At the end of the second year after returning to her hometown, Princess Pingjiang committed suicide by throwing herself into the river, ending her young life.
Xie Lan can understand her, it is estimated that the girls from the secret camp can understand this princess very well, she just got the news a few days ago, and her senior sister has lost the news.
The girls in the secret camp, losing the news means death, it may be because of the sacrifice of the mission, or it may be secretly executed by their own people.
Because the secret camp cannot exist, even if they are killed, no one will know.
It is estimated that it will not be long before she Xie Lan will become a disappearing symbol in the hearts of other junior sisters.
But she didn't want to die.
Xie Lan hugged his shoulders and leaned against the wall, sorting out the clutter in his mind more smoothly.
What is she doing?
Why did it suddenly break out and betray King Ming? How could she betray King Ming, obviously in the past ten years, her greatest wish is to one day appear by King Ming's side openly, stand under the Yang Pass, and announce to everyone that she is the princess of the secret camp and the righteous daughter of King Ming.
To say disillusionment does not seem to be accurate.
Xie Lan knew very well from a long time ago that King Ming was not a hero, he was a tragedy, an afterimage of the old dynasty.
However, Xie Lan still believes that King Ming and those of them have faith after all.
Regardless of whether this belief is outdated or not, but since she Xie Lan has received her great favor and lived, she is willing to sacrifice her life for the other party's faith.
However, now that King Ming wants to cooperate with the Northern Barbarians for his own selfish interests? So what kind of Da Chen is he revived, or what Da Chen?
When Chen was martyred, he was most worried about the arrival of the new dynasty, whether the soldiers in northern Xinjiang had military salaries available, and the last person to deal with was the minister who embezzled military salaries.
At that time, a righteous man persuaded him to collect money and let the prince take him south, in order to restore the country in the future, but Lord Chen ordered the prince to bring the last remaining batch of military salaries, grain and grass to the north to block the invasion of the northern barbarians.
The crown prince died in battle, and the lord of Chen also died, only the king of Ming fled the capital with a group of loyal ministers and righteous soldiers.
That kind of Da Chen may have all kinds of shortcomings, all kinds of weaknesses, and the combat effectiveness of the army is not very good, the reason why people still miss it today, and there are still righteous soldiers who want to believe it, is because the kings of Da Chen, most of them have a soft heart and love the people.
If you lose this heart, how can you be worthy of being the lord of the Chen country, and how can you be worthy of calling yourself the king of Ming?
Xie Lan has no name and no identity, but she still thinks that she is a citizen of Chen State, and she will never recognize a man who colludes with the Northern Barbarians as her Ming King.
