Chapter 104: The Battle of the Praying Mantis

Jiang Xuanjin looked at those four words quietly, and his dark eyes blinked extremely slowly. %d7%cf%d3%c4%b8%f3

It's not easy, I taught her calligraphy in Feiyun Palace, and I didn't let her write a word seriously for several months, but these four words were stroked one by one, which was very upright.

It's really what I mean to miss him.

With a slight sourness in his heart, he closed the letter and neatly put it back in the letterbox.

"Master, pen and ink." Chengxu was very considerate and sent something up, and put it in his hand, thinking that if he wrote a reply, he would be able to send it away immediately.

However, Jiang Xuanjin lowered his eyes, but waved his hand and said, "No need." โ€

I was stunned.

Lift the tent. He looked at the soldiers in full gear on the lowlands. In the last encounter, there were a lot of injuries, and there were not enough Chinese medicinal materials in the army, and many people were only slightly injured, but when they fell asleep, they couldn't get up again. On the way to Cangju Mountain, I don't know how many of my own people were buried.

The Northern Wei Dynasty was in turmoil, and the lives were ruined, not the time for his children's private affairs.

"Your Majesty." Yu Feng came back from outside, frowned, and said, "Letter from Liu Jun." โ€

The two sides are fighting, the upper army is fighting, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city. He and Liu Yunlie have been secretly competing, and they also want to talk to him, but Liu Yunlie has been reluctant to negotiate. Now that he has taken the initiative to send a letter, Jiang Xuanjin naturally wants to accept it.

After reading the letter carefully, he said: "Go and ask General Wu to go with Benjun to the mountainside pavilion." โ€

Chengxu was very worried: "The king will go in person?" โ€

"There is a pioneer camp to explore the way, why should you be afraid?" Jiang Xuanjin took the armor and put it on, "Furthermore." Liu Yunlie has known Benjun for many years, and Benjun knows very well how he will act. โ€

Liu Yunlie would not use this kind of pretext to trick him, knowing that he would not be able to do so, so if he wanted to see him, he would definitely go to the appointment seriously.

The mountain wind is quite strong, it is May, and it is still cool on Cangju Mountain. Liu Yunlie prepared a tea set in the pavilion on the mountainside, and poured water with his sleeves on, looking very leisurely. If it weren't for the many generals behind him, Jiang Xuanjin really thought that he was a boy who was tired of climbing mountains and resting here.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, how can Ziyangjun's demeanor not lose two points?" Seeing him coming, Liu Yunlie turned his head sideways and smiled, "This way, the foolish brother can't hide his embarrassment." โ€

"Captain Liu is modest." Jiang Xuanjin indifferently entered the pavilion and sat down, "In the previous battle on the mountain road, Du Wei was really imposing. โ€

The emperor fled to Feng Yi, and Liu Yunlie proclaimed himself the captain of all armies, although everyone in his army called him like this, but hearing this title from Jiang Xuanjin's mouth, Liu Yunlie inexplicably felt that there was two points of ridicule.

Putting down the teacup, he said: "The Ming people don't say dark words, your lord, you and I fight each other, and the injured are all soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty, we might as well stop the war first and work together to defeat Xiliang back, how about it?" โ€

Jiang Xuanjin glanced at him.

Liu Yunlie smiled very uprightly: "You can't let Xiliang sit and reap the benefits." โ€

Fingers tapped on the stone table, and Jiang Xuanjin said: "If I remember correctly, Du Wei's mรจi mรจi is married to the general of Xiliang." โ€

"Well, don't mention it." With a smile on his face, Liu Yunlie frowned and said, "When the marriage was first made, even if Your Majesty insisted on going his own way, I couldn't stop it." Now the Western Liang has entered the Wei Dynasty. Everyone scolds me for being a traitor, but who knows my suffering? The younger sister was young, and when she got married, she didn't want to let her go home, and I was also on fire, and broke off the brother-sister relationship with her, and she went directly to Xiliang as soon as she turned her head. โ€

The wind blew over, blowing away a few strands of Liu Yunlie's black hair, adding a little more desolation to his face.

"I was born as a person of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and death is also the soul of the Northern Wei Dynasty, let me watch the Northern Wei Dynasty being occupied by the Western Liang people, I am 10,000 unwilling!"

The words are full of pride, and those who listen to it really want to give him a beat to sing a big show.

There was a light in the ink pupils that flickered slightly, and it quickly dimmed, Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips and did not speak.

Liu Yunlie knew him better, and when he saw his expression, he knew that he was moved by what he said, and hurriedly said: "I originally planned to escort Your Majesty to Lidu, who would have thought that Your Majesty would insist on letting me send troops to help the people of Xiliang break through Kyoto, I don't want to, Your Majesty took Ning Guifei to Feng Yi." Otherwise, how do you think Your Majesty would part ways with me? โ€

These words were very convincing, Jiang Xuanjin bowed slightly, and asked, "How do Du Wei want to join hands to fight the enemy?" โ€

took out the map that had been prepared and put it on the table, and Liu Yunlie pointed to him: "Now that Kyoto is besieged, you and I are east of Kyoto. On the contrary, you and I will cease fighting, the army of Ziyang will return to Kyoto from the Changhuai River region, and I will lead people all the way back from Luoshui, and you and I will join forces in the suburbs of Beijing, so that Lin Jun and others can help drive away the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xiliang. โ€

His eyes lit up, and Jiang Xuanjin nodded: "Yes." โ€

Liu Yunlie was overjoyed, took out his inscription and put it on the table: "Exchange tokens, use this as evidence." โ€

Jiang Xuanjin touched his waist, he was carrying a thick amulet given by Huaiyu.

"Faux pas." He said, "The Ming Pei under me was taken to play with by two ignorant children. โ€

Liu Yunlie's gentle smile showed a crack.

Taking a deep breath, he gritted his teeth: "If you want to show off that Mrs. Zun gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus, you can say it directly." โ€

"The Lieutenant is so well-informed?"

Nonsense! On the day Li Huaiyu gave birth, this person opened a warehouse and released grain like crazy, and the entire Northern Wei Dynasty knew that he Ziyangjun had an amazing daughter-in-law, and he had both children and daughters in one child!

Isn't it amazing! Dignified Ziyang Jun, for this little thing to alarm the world, and not afraid of being embarrassed! As if anyone would envy him, hmph, he wouldn't envy!

The frontal horn is full of green tendons. Liu Yunlie said: "Congratulations." โ€

"It's not a big deal." Jiang Xuanjin gently hooked the corners of her lips.

With a "click", the teacup in Liu Yunlie's hand shattered.

Just Wu looked at Liu Yunlie's distorted face and thought about it, this person seems to be in his thirties and has no heirs. Alas, it is not easy for him to plot against the world, and if there is any accident, he will directly cut off his children and grandchildren.

The two chatted for a long time in the mountain pavilion. You went back and forth, stabbing and shooting, and finally ended the conversation smoothly.

"See you in Kyoto." Liu Yunlie smiled and clenched his fists.

Jiang Xuanjin saluted him back, and left with him.

The smile on his face grew bigger and bigger, Liu Yunlie hurried down the mountain, and muttered in a low voice: "It's been so long, it's time for me to win." โ€

This Cangju Mountain is occupied by Jiang Xuanjin in a good terrain, and he will also hurt the enemy by 800 and lose 1,000 by himself, it will be easy to trick him into going to Kyoto, and when he arrives in Kyoto, he will understand what is the real belly and back enemy!

"Ziyang-kun agreed?" The military advisor asked in surprise.

Liu Yunlie smiled and nodded: "This person is good anywhere, but it is too easy to trust others, and the pit I tailored for him, he will not succeed if he doesn't fall off." โ€

Now that the war is going to be suspended, the pressure on his side is much less, and he can go on the road comfortably, at least a month of peace and happiness can be lived, and he feels happy when he thinks about it.

However, for some reason, the journey to Kyoto was extremely unlucky, and several military camps in the branch encountered many ambushes. The other party said that it was an uprising, and that the small army that was always unexpectedly lรกn jiรฉ backward disappeared without a trace.

There are only a few hundred people lost at one time, but there are too many times, Liu Yunlie is a little annoyed, he finds a city to repair, and then continues to walk when the people behind him will be mastered.

The war report said. The speed of the Purple Sun Army was about the same as theirs, and it was estimated that they would arrive on the outskirts of Beijing three days later.

So, Liu Yunlie turned around with confidence and cleaned up these groups of people of unknown origin.

When he arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, he was about to send people to contact the nearby Western Liang army, but he was caught off guard, and a large number of soldiers and horses came from all around, surrounding them fifty miles east of the outskirts of Beijing.

The earth-shattering sound of drums startled Liu Yunlie on his horse.

The historians of the Northern Wei Dynasty called this battle the "Battle of the Praying Mantis", because Ziyang's 100,000 troops arrived in Kyoto at an astonishing speed, successfully supported Changlin Jun and Nanping Jun, and quickly swallowed the 30,000 siege men and horses of Xiliang with the momentum of praying mantis catching cicadas, and then turned around and directly met Liu Yunlie, who came here and thought he was a "yellow bird".

How Ziyangjun accurately learned the marching route of the Liu army was not known to later generations, but that battle was fought for half a month, and the suburbs of Beijing were soaked in blood.

With this battle as a turning point, Xiliang and Liu Yunlie's side were defeated and retreated.

Li Huaiyu waited on the window, but never waited for Jiang Xuanjin's letter.

She was a little aggrieved, her eyes were red, and she turned her head sideways and asked Qingsi: "Does he not want me at all?" โ€

Qingsi pinched the grate and combed her long hair: "The king must have thought of it." โ€

"Then why didn't he give me a letter? Even a single word would be fine. Huaiyu pouted, "I wake up every day and look forward to it, I look forward to it, I look forward to it, and I don't look forward to it until it gets dark."

The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, she hugged her knees and sniffed: "I didn't know before, waiting for someone turned out to be such an uncomfortable thing." โ€

Qingsi didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only stubbornly say: "There is good news from the front, Xiliang has begun to withdraw his troops out of the country." โ€

"And then?"

"Then, the emperor wanted to build a new capital in Feng Yi, but he didn't know what resistance he encountered and couldn't build it."

"What else?"

"Also, your dress looks pretty today." Qingsi turned her head away.

Li Huaiyu puffed out his mouth. Very angry, he hugged the little bastard and the little scourge on the soft couch and lined them up.

"Mother told you! What a bastard your daddy! She crossed her fingers and told her daughter, "I am cold, easy to get angry, and it's not easy to coax when I'm angry, and it's six hundred and seventy-two hours to leave!" He bullied your mother before, if you don't love me, you have to kill me, but now my mother is magnanimous and doesn't care, and he doesn't even give me a letter to the family! โ€

The little scourge stared at her blankly, and the little bastard spat out a bubble. The expression is innocent.

Qingsi was speechless: "Your Highness, isn't this appropriate?" โ€

"What's wrong, I'm their mother, what I said is right!" Huaiyu snorted angrily and continued to complain, starting from Jiang Xuanjin not talking to her when she was eating, until he put his arm around her neck when he slept.

Qingsi looked out the window silently, thinking that it would be better for the king to come back early, and come back a few years later, the two children must think that their father is a heinous monster.

Lu Jingxing took the time to come to the princess's mansion and walked away, and he was greeted with a resentful face.

He spread his fan and smiled: "The beauty rolls the beaded curtain, sits deeply and frowns." But when you see the tears wet, you don't know who you hate? โ€

Li Huaiyu rolled his lips and spit out a sentence: "Whoever grandma comes to provoke Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu hates whoever he wants!" โ€

Lu Jingxing: ""

Women are really unreasonable!

"How do you have time to come here?" Huaiyu squinted at him, "Haven't your business been busy lately?" โ€

"yes." Lujing Road. "Thanks to the king, the situation in various places has stabilized, I think it's really easy to make money."

Li Huaiyu glanced at him: "Only you, the shopkeeper of Lu Da, can say this." โ€

The war broke out, the business everywhere was not good, many merchants went bankrupt and fled, so he was bold, and bought a large number of shops when no one cared about them, and as soon as the situation was stable, he sat on the ground and raised the price, and the silver flowed into his pocket, and he couldn't do anything about him when others were red-eyed.

"Well, your lord has helped me a lot, and I have to give a gift in return." Lu Jingxing waved his hand and asked the person behind him to hand over a sandalwood box, "Take it." โ€

Huaiyu took it and glanced at it, and found that it was a fine piece of jade, carved a person with clear eyebrows. This person is dressed in a fox fur cloak, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and his back is straight, quite windy.

Needless to say, who did he say, Li Huaiyu looked at it twice and his eyes turned red.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?" She gritted her teeth, "I know that Lao Tzu thinks he thinks too much, and he still sends this?" โ€

"Hey, don't get excited." As soon as the fan was closed, Lu Jingxing said with a smile, "This is the light of Hanshan Temple, the host said." This jade has spirituality, as long as you hold it and sleep for seven hundred and forty-nine days, the person who carves the jade will appear in front of you. โ€

Only a fool will believe this kind of lie!

Li Huaiyu looked at it for a while, but couldn't help but ask, "Really?" โ€

Lu Jingxing looked at her deeply and nodded: "Really." โ€

Reaching out to hold the jade carving in his arms, Huaiyu said to him viciously: "If it's fake, I'll break your legs!" โ€

So, Qingsi found that her Royal Highness no longer sighed every day, but she just hugged the jade carving wherever she went, even if she ate and slept, even took a bath, and even once wanted to take it to the toilet, she tried her best to stop it.

While it was funny, she felt a little distressed.

Jiang Xuanjin pinched the brush and looked at the letter paper in front of him, hesitating for a long time.

"Master." Take advantage of the void to come in and say, "Liu Yunlie fled to Feng Yi. โ€

After a slight pause, he put down the pen in his hand, got up and asked, "Can you catch up?" โ€

He shook his head.

Liu Yunlie's army was defeated like a mountain, and he was pursued by all kinds of feudal monarchs, but he didn't know what he was thinking, but he turned his head and went straight to Feng Yi, and no one could stop him.

His eyes were slightly dark, and Jiang Xuanjin was silent for a long time.

Li Huailin is an orthodox emperor, even if he has no real power at the moment, he still holds the jade seal.

"That's it." He said, "Even if you can't catch up, let's go and have a look." โ€
