Chapter 34: The Beginning of the Journey (Part II)

Approaching step by step, Huan Ke's gaze was uncertain, with a monstrous momentum, but it was more calm and waveless like an undercurrent. I looked at him without fear or avoidance, but I was caught off guard by him and into my arms. He has a very light sandalwood on his body, and just a light smell is refreshing.

Word by word, he was resolute and earnest, restrained and fiery, I rested my chin on his shoulder, only to feel that he gradually tightened his arms with the words, so carefully forced, as if he was holding on to the treasure that he knew he would lose: "My mother is not because of you, you are not a so-called profit tool, let alone a senseless deception." You are Xiao Yuemu, your compassion is enough to help the world, your wisdom is enough to be thorough in troubled times, and your beautiful heart is enough to be praised by beautiful women who are captivating the city and the country. You are the princess of Pingzhou who Huan Ke announced to the world. It is unparalleled in the world, and the ice is clear and jade. Don't be presumptuous. ”

The voice is forbearing, but there is not a word that clearly involves the wind and the moon. My body froze, my mind was in chaos, my heart was uneasy, and I didn't know how to react at this time. Those who deal with others are fluent and confident, and they don't know how to go to the clouds.

Tightening his arms again, and quickly letting go of his hand, I seemed to hear him sigh briefly, but I couldn't confirm it after all. Restrained and polite, he lowered his hands, separated from me at a decent distance, Huan Ke looked at me and smiled, clinging to me, but it was as thick as a morning cloud: "I know what your heart wants, and I also know what you want and want." Huan Ke will do his best to help you get everything you want. After that, stay or go, which is right and wrong, Huan Ke will no longer interfere with it. It's just that...... At least for now, at least at this time, the identity of the princess of Pingzhou can protect you thoroughly, and can make Huan Ke accompany you in a dignified manner and tide over the difficulties with you. ”

"I hope you will be fulfilled, Huan Ke has few minds."

is so sad and so low, I can only listen silently, unable to say more, unable to say more. His heart shook and hesitated, as if he was infected by his emotions and suddenly felt inexplicably sour, and the softness in the deepest part of his heart slowly rose up with sighs and touches.

Prompted by this throbbing, he had to lower his eyelids, and he saw that Huan Ke also withdrew his affectionate gaze, turned sideways and chuckled, pretending to be nothing, avoiding the important and light: "Since you tell me a secret, I will exchange a story with you." Do you remember when you asked me, why doesn't the imperial sister like the word 'obedient'? ”

I bowed my head and whispered, I tried my best to listen to him, but my heart was still unsettled, if the fawn touched my heart.

"It's because of me."

"When I was young, my mother was not favored by my father, and my sister and I have never been noticed by my father. Until I was thirteen years old, my father occasionally talked to me and chatted, and I did my best to answer the rules of the world in the Book of War. My father, the Emperor, was overjoyed and began to take me on the expedition. After the Pingzhou Rebellion, I was crowned the king of Pingzhou, and at that time, the imperial brother Fang was registered as the crown prince, and the regent was very suspicious. In order to warn me not to have a rebellious heart, the two of them joined hands to ask my father to change my original name to 'Ke', and set the title of the emperor's sister as 'obedient'. The meaning of the word 'Ke' is still vague, but the meaning of 'obedience' is obvious. The imperial sister always felt that if there was no reason for her, I would have suffered less humiliation, so she hated this title and did not allow it to be mentioned in the house. ”

"The princess and you are really sisters and brothers." I couldn't help sighing, and remembered that the word "Congshun" was quite similar to the "Mirror Flower" palace and the "Lingyue" emperor back then, and I couldn't help but bow my head and sneer. Looking up at Huan Ke, I asked, "Then what was your original name?" ”

"Huan Junchi." Huan Ke said lightly, "I also had a small character back then, called Chengkuo. ”

"Chengkuo?" I then read lightly and said, "For thousands of years, the word Chengkuo has not been obtained." The first emperor did have high hopes for you. ”

Huan Ke just smiled. As soon as I looked into those starry eyes, I suddenly remembered his heartfelt words, and I hurriedly collected my eyes, looked at him left and right, and relayed other things: "That day...... Pang Ji, who was sent to Joyama, left safely? ”

He wrote that the man was in Thorn. Even if Wei Ye sends someone to arrest him, he will definitely look for it in the direction of Guisang. What's more, Wei Ye is now lacking in skills, so he must not be able to distinguish the reason for thinking carefully. Huan Ke turned around and looked at him with a smile: "Pang Ji also praised me in the letter for being discerning, and I could see Wei Ye's rebellious heart, just by tapping and provoking from the side, I can make it into my hand." But I didn't know that there was a female military division behind me. But I take the credit for you. ”

"If you hadn't told me that Wei Ye was a person, and you told me about the situation around Dingshan, and Guo Chuan, the general of the town army, was leading troops outside, if you want to fight, you must be chosen, how could I have come up with this plan?" I chuckled, "It's the right time, the right place, and the right people, and it's indispensable." I'm not a female military teacher, don't laugh at me. ”

raised his eyebrows in response, and there was ridicule in his voice, I was about to fight, Huan Ke begged for mercy again and again, and teased each other. Pushing the boat down the river, I only did that hug and those words did not happen and did not hear it, and seeing that Huan Ke did not mention it anymore, I secretly sighed in my heart. That kind of love is as deep as the sea, and I don't ask for anything in return, and it's definitely not something I can afford. Huan Ke deserves a better woman, maybe not so smart, maybe not so illustrious in his family, but he is simple and harmless, and he can accompany him through his life safely. And Xiao Yuemu ......

Wei Ye was originally fanned by Pang Ji and started his reaction, not to mention that the situation I ordered Pang Ji to say at that time was that Huan Ke would never turn over again. After many days, Wei Ye saw that no one came to fight, and he really had no fear, and he was singing in Dingshan City, singing every night, and he had begun to send a small number of soldiers and horses to Xingzhou, with bad intentions. The people near Dingshan were panicked, and the situation forced Huan Junlie to start Huan Ke again. Huan Ke was named the general of Huaihua and went to Dingshan as a deputy general; The main general, Guo Chuan, handed over the corresponding military affairs of Raolu City as soon as possible, and then rushed to converge. Although Huan Ke is only a deputy general and his power is not complete, with his prestige, he can still respond to every call in the army, and Guo Chuan is still the same general when he arrives.

It's just that right and wrong are rugged and raw, but it's about me. Huan Ke fears that if I stay in Guisang, I will be taken advantage of by those who are eyeing him when he leaves. But if I go with the army and have no position, and the battlefield is also sword and eyeless. Huan Wei resolutely objected to me going with Huan Ke: "Yuemu is already the princess of Pingzhou, who dares to take her?" But when fighting on the battlefield, even the king of Pingzhou, who is revered by everyone, is ignored, let alone the princess? I see that Ke'er, you are worried about the sky, and your concern is chaotic. ”

Putting down the chopsticks, Huan Ke also looked serious: "Ordinary mortals naturally don't dare to move the emperor, but what if he is the regent?" ”

"Uncle Huang?" Huan Wan showed a look of surprise, and after thinking for a moment, she said uneasily: "Yes, I actually forgot this heavy ...... Although the emperor's original wishful thinking has come to naught, if there is anything unexpected in Yuemu's Pingzhou Palace, not only will Lianghong have a gap with the night, but the queen mother, the regent, the emperor and others will take this opportunity to push you to be the scapegoat. The Pingzhou Royal Mansion has become the target of public criticism in Guisang, and it is indeed difficult to protect Yuemu Zhouquan with my strength alone...... But Yuemu is her daughter's family in the end, how can she go to the battlefield with Ke'er? ”

"If you only accompany as the princess of Pingzhou, no matter who else, only the soldiers will not be convinced." Huan Ke groaned and raised his eyes to look at me: "So according to my intentions, the emperor should not go out as a military advisor." ”

"Strategist?" I was amazed, and sighed, "Why are you making fun of me with the words of the day?" I don't know how to fight, where to deploy my troops, and any soldier in the barracks can take me down. Not all women can be Qi Lianyi. ”

"It is precisely because of her as a precedent that your identity as a military advisor will not be troubled." Huan Ke relaxed a little and chuckled: "Since there are already female generals, why not female military divisions?" Besides, only if you go with the army, and the army turns defeat into victory because of you, will the imperial brother and others really trust us, and the expedition to Lianghongfang is just around the corner. ”

After some thought, this method is still the best I can come up with at the moment. When we left Guisang with Huan Ke, we only announced to the outside world that the king of Pingzhou and the prospective princess had a deep affection and were inseparable, and the princess wanted to send the prince to the barracks. It wasn't until he stood side by side with Huan Ke on the high platform of the barracks that Huan Ke saw the opportunity and announced to the soldiers in the battalion that I was the commander of this battle: "I haven't seen you brothers for many days, I don't know if my martial arts can be improved?" After a while, Huan Ke invited a few brothers to discuss with each other, but it was much more than those false courtesies. ”

"Yes!" The audience was high-spirited, I saw Zhufeng, he winked at me, I smiled and pursed my lips, and listened to Huan Ke laughing: "You are concentrating on martial arts in the military camp, and you don't know yet." Standing beside Huan Ke is the future mistress of the Pingzhou Palace, the future princess of the Pingzhou King. ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately changed color, and even if the military discipline was excellent, they couldn't help but have a small commotion. Qi Lianyi's face was cold and the side, and he was about to have a seizure at any time, I was busy pulling Huan Ke's sleeve, and he nodded knowingly: "What Huan Ke said now is a family matter, brothers don't have to be nervous, just casually." ”

The team immediately dispersed, and everyone rushed up, asking eagerly: "General, this girl looked at her eyes, but she didn't know which one she belonged to, and she quietly became a princess?" "Tell me how the two of you got to know each other, everyone wants to know!" "Hey brethren!" My face turned red, and Zhu Feng broke the siege in the audience and said: "The princess is thin-faced, and you can't ask anything if you are so noisy." It's better to see the rumors in person, if you want to know the truth, you might as well come and ask me! ”

The soldiers really pounced on Zhufeng again. I couldn't laugh or cry, got closer to Huan Ke, and whispered, "You haven't told me about such a scene." I didn't want them to be punished, but now it seems that it is better not to be a good person. "I said that the soldiers led by Huan Ke are strictly disciplined, but they are worthy of the name." Huan Ke turned his head, his eyes full of sly smiles: "But what happens to them when they don't train and don't fight, I can't control it, and you haven't asked." ”

was so annoyed that he poked him, but the audience suddenly burst into laughter. I was ashamed and anxious, so I had to stare at Huan Ke, and he didn't know for a long time before he waved his hand to stop laughing: "Okay, if you continue to make trouble like this, it will be this king who will suffer." "Huan Ke!" With a low snort, I ignored him angrily, and he gradually smiled a little: "The generals will listen to the order!" ”

It was indeed an astonishing speed, and the soldiers who were still scattered just formed into a team in an instant, and there was not a trace of a smile on their faces. I was surprised and admired in my heart, and listened to Huan Ke finally get back to business: "This time the princess came with her, but it is not that the children are long and heroic and short of breath. The princess will go with me on this trip, and she will be appointed as a military advisor, and everyone must not joke! ”

There was still no one to speak, but everyone looked at me with different eyes, and even Zhufeng and several people were full of doubts. "The princess's skills can only be revealed in wartime. It is reasonable for you to be unconvinced now. But this time Huan Ke was able to escape, and he was able to stand here at this time because of the princess's plan. Therefore, if anyone dares to be disrespectful to the princess, it will be like being unrighteous to Huan Ke, and Hugh blames Huan Ke for being ruthless! ”

"Yes!" There seemed to be no objection to the response, but I knew that this hurdle was far from passing. Sure enough, when night fell, the first people to inquire were the four of Zhufeng. With a funny smile on his face, he took the lead in teasing and recalling: "Earlier, the emperor and the general understood each other, and they trapped us in the horse post with the inside and outside, so it turned out that it was the beginning of the beginning? If that's the case, we'll miss out on a lot of good things when we're in a daze. ”

Without waiting for me to reply, Zhufeng quickly picked it up again, smiling: "Regardless of the past, just look at the present." Emperor Ji was still duplicitous, but now that she has figured it out, she has finally achieved a positive result with the general, which is indeed gratifying! ”
