After a while, Su Zicheng opened his eyes and looked at Li Xiaoyi, and said even more blankly: "I can't think of it, it's all gone, there's nothing, my heart is empty, it's all empty, it's very uncomfortable." Li Xiaoqi looked at him with pity, sighed, reached out and shook the hand he put on the table and comforted: "Then don't think about it, what you want on weekdays is just a sentence, you don't think about it, and naturally you don't particularly want it, such a day is already a fairy day." Li Xiaoyi's hand was warm and soft, but he held Su Zicheng's half of his body frozen, and after listening to Li Xiaoyi's words, he hurriedly denied it: "No, no, there is ••••••"

Li Xiaoqi stretched out his hand and touched the cup, raised his voice to call Haitang to come in and change the jujube soup, pushed the lid cup in front of Su Zicheng and said with a smile: "Don't drink tea, drink a bowl of jujube soup and sleep well at night, it's late, I have to go tomorrow, the prince should rest early, I will leave." Li Xiaoqi said as he jumped off the house, Su Zicheng stood up and walked out of the tent, Su Zicheng said in a low voice abruptly: "Let me think again." Li Xiaoqi stopped, turned to look, and said with a solemn smile: "Forget it, don't think about it, what if you really want to wander the world and explore the rivers and lakes?" Aren't you embarrassed by yourself? It's best for you to be your virtuous king, and it's also a kind of immortal day, as long as you are not the emperor, you are all immortals. Li Xiaoqi laughed, and in the night, Su Zicheng's face darkened again.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Li Xiaoqi climbed into the car with difficulty and continued to sleep, Su Zicheng had already gone to the grass racecourse, rolling all the way to sleep until three poles on the sun, Li Xiaoqi got up and cleaned his face again, looked at the light moon and sighed: "Look at how quickly this person gets used to it, he couldn't sleep yesterday, but he can fall asleep today, and when he arrives in Huaiyang, if he doesn't roll around like this, I won't be able to sleep." Danyue laughed out loud by what she said, Li Xiaoqi ate half a bowl of porridge, a few pieces of snacks, Danyue cleaned up, took two cloth bag rolls and handed them to Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "This is an hour ago on the post road sent over, one is for the girl, the other is for the prince, around Pingdan, Nanning came over to pass the master's words, saying let me tell the girl, the prince is not in these days, the post road sent over the things for the girl to dispose of." Li Xiaoqi exhaled for a long time at the two cloth bags, one gray and one yellow, and asked her to dispose of it on her behalf! What can she dispose of?

Li Xiaoqi took his gray cloth bag, looked at the lacquer seal at the mouth of the bag, took the silver knife from Danyue's hand and opened it, looked at it carefully one by one, and replied with his hard and very fine brush, a bunch of letterheads sandwiched Yu Yuanshan's name, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly picked it out and opened it, the letter was full of three, the handwriting was flying and excited, Li Xiaoqi quickly swept it, patted the letter a few times and laughed, Su Zicheng really as he said before, the fold of Yu Yuanshan and other Liangdi prisoners was the topic of this year's imperial examination, Last night, the dragon gate was opened and the crowd came out, as soon as Yu Yuanshan got the letter, according to his words, he was dizzy with excitement, he didn't dare to show off outside the Yuanfeng Hall, and there was a banquet in the hall for a night, Li Xiaoqi looked at the car window and went out for a long time, but take it to make a policy topic, and the people of Liangdi can be excited like this? Can you make Yu Yuanshan's liver and brain smeared on the ground? She still has countless estrangements from this world.

Danyue looked at her carefully, Li Xiaoqi exhaled, put away the letter and put it in a coarse cloth bag, which was full of letters to be incinerated at night. After sorting out his own things, Li Xiaoqi picked up the yellow silk bag, took out the folds inside, looked at them one by one, and tied them together again in different categories, as long as it was not 100,000 urgent, burning eyebrows, it was better to wait for him to come back and dispose of it himself.

The way to Huaiyang Mansion was different from the last time I came back, along the way I traveled early and rested late, just rushed to the itinerary, and set up a tent to stay in the field at night, Su Zicheng rushed back from the grass racecourse, and went out to check the river defense a few times, until Huaiyang, and I didn't have much with the team. However, in ten days, the group rushed to Huaiyang, crossed Huaiyang, and rushed straight to the temporary line not far from Yongcheng Pass.

Su Zicheng convened the generals to discuss it for a day, Li Xiaoqi carefully looked at the Huainan Road spy report handed over by the long term, and then placed Begonia and Dayu in the middle to send dim sum soup and prepare lunch to Su Zicheng, along the way, I don't know from which day, this matter of arranging food fell on his head, Dayu came over in the morning and evening to ask if it was okay to eat this? Is it feasible to do that?

was busy until the night fell, Su Zicheng strode to Li Xiaoqi with excitement, and said with a smile as soon as he entered the door: "It's all right, this battle, Wu Jun didn't dare to look at it directly!" Li Xiaoqi put down the small pieces of paper in his hand, straightened up and was considered a courtesy, Su Zicheng didn't need Li Xiaoqi to let him, he sat straight on the couch, Danyue hurriedly poured tea and sent it up, Su Zicheng took it and drank it all, Li Xiaoqi put a few pieces of paper into the box, turned his head and ordered: "Hurry up and pass the rice." Danyue agreed, while letting people pass the word, while bringing the little girl in with hot water, waiting for Su Zicheng to clean his face and hands, Li Xiaoqi jumped off the bed, turned into the back clean room and washed his hands and face.

After the two of them ate, Su Zicheng waved his hand and retreated from the girl in the house, leaned back comfortably, and said with a smile: "I will win the pass the day after tomorrow, and I will take Hancheng first." Li Xiaoqi looked at Su Zicheng, whose eyes were shining brightly and excited, wanted to ask and swallowed, first, she didn't understand, and second, such a secret, I don't know the best, Li Xiaoyi's mind turned slightly, and said with a smile: "In the long run, this trip has done well, and I have handed a lot of useful letters back." ”

"What letter?" Su Zicheng hurriedly sat down and asked.

"Look at it, these are all the most talked about in Yangzhou, Chuzhou and other places since the war between the eldest prince and the Empress Dowager Wu, it is this war, it is said that the Chizhou government army has robbed a county seat, and this one, saying that the Taiping army entered the village in the middle of the night to catch the husband and arrest the Ding, and this ••••••"

"What's the use of that?" Su Zicheng was a little inexplicable, Li Xiaoqi glanced at him and explained: "Didn't you say that the Empress Dowager Wu and the eldest prince are not stupid people, you took Huainan Road and stuck the key point of Wu, maybe the two of them will join forces to get back Huainan Road, let's take down Huainan Road, stabilizing the people's hearts is the top priority, if the people's hearts are unstable, it is the enemy on their backs, isn't that the case?" Su Zicheng nodded again and again, thoughtfully holding the piece of paper and was about to speak, Li Xiaoqi continued: "To stabilize the people's hearts as soon as possible, we have to take advantage of tricks and prescribe medicines, you see, the people of Huainan Road are afraid that people will be arrested and their wealth will be robbed!" ”

"It's easy! Or thoughtful as you think! Su Zicheng reacted very quickly, sat up straight with a smile on his face, and raised his voice to call Dongping to come in and order: "Order all the armies, enter Huainan Road to kill people, and kill those who rob money!" There is no offense with Minsuqiu! Dongping simply bowed down and was about to go out, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly pulled Su Zicheng and said in a low voice: "And! Let people write a good post, saying that the army and the people have not committed any crimes, and they have posted everywhere they have passed, and the people can feel at ease when they know it, and! Li Xiaoqi didn't say anything, and first smiled so much that his eyes were bent into a line: "If you stay overnight, you are not allowed to enter the house, and you have to clean the door of the master's house before leaving, and the tank is full of water." Su Zicheng laughed out loud: "This is too •••••• a bit hypocritical, I ordered to go down, the army passed by, and the villagers were edicted in the name of the lord, and the edict was written and shown to the girl first." Dongping agreed to withdraw, Su Zicheng turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "The way of hypocrisy will not last long, but there is no need to use it." Li Xiaoqi looked at Su Zicheng and muttered with emotion: "Who said it can't last long?" Alas! Su Zicheng was inexplicably sighed by her, and she often sighed strangely.

A few days before the battle, Su Zicheng and Li Xiaoqi were both busy for a moment, one was busy breaking the city in front of them, and the other was busy preparing to clean up the mess.

On this day, Li Xiaoqi wrapped in a thick cloak and rode on a horse, followed by Su Zicheng, under the protection of Mingzhu and other personal guards and the Tiger Wing Army, in the dark night out of Yongcheng Pass, near the end of the month, but it was a sunny day, the thin crescent moon seemed to be hidden in the starry sky, under the dim starlight, black clothes and black armor, quiet and fast like a ghostly crowd rushed out of the pass, ran in the direction of Hancheng Pass for less than two quarters of an hour, the team turned right, rushed to a high ground, here is one of the few high places between Hancheng and Yongcheng Pass.

Under the starlight, Su Zicheng was wearing a black round-necked narrow-sleeved shirt, his eyes were shining, and he pointed to the looming tall city wall in front of him with a horsewhip and said with a smile: "After Pingdan, we will be able to enter the city." Li Xiaoqi took a breath a little nervously and asked, "Wait a while, just rush up like this?" Su Zicheng laughed sullenly: "This first battle must be morale, the Wu army that fought was frightened, and it was all the tiger army, so I couldn't bear to rush forward." Li Xiaoqi glanced at him, Su Zicheng turned his head to look at Dongping, Dongping made a gesture, Su Zicheng nodded, turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "There is still half an hour, Hancheng is heavily guarded to the west, but to the east, stretching for five or six hundred miles are high mountains and deep ravines, nearly four hundred miles away from here, there is a trail in the mountains leading to Wu Land, when the eldest brother was guarding the pass here, let people find out, and he has been secretly sending people to watch, just prepare for such an opportunity today." ”

"You let people enter Wu Land from that path and sneak attack from the hinterland of Han City to open the gate?" Li Xiaoqi suddenly understood, and Su Zicheng smiled appreciatively: "You really understand as soon as you hear it, this is the most critical point of this battle, and it is also the first achievement of the first battle of Huainan Road. Su Zicheng decided not to say any more here, Li Xiaoqi shuddered lightly, Su Zicheng seemed to feel Li Xiaoyi's timidity, turned his head to look at her and said with a smile: "Fighting with soldiers, the so-called sword goes sideways, seeks victory in danger, relies on courage, and also relies on luck." Li Xiaoqi wrapped his cloak, looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Is the eldest brother going?" ”
