"I was amazed that Miss Sima was a brave and strong person, and would not make such a reckless move as suicidal suicide."

In the warm boudoir, the man covered in snow carefully moved the brazier to the side of the bed, Sima Tulan on the bed was covered with a quilt and shivered, a dry smile appeared on his pale cheeks, and his eyes flashed: "Where am I looking for a short view, but I want to lie in the snow to cool off, I have been stuffy in the house for the past two days." ”

"When you are bored, go out for a walk, the snow is very beautiful at this time, and it is a pity to miss it."

Sima Tulan lowered her head, gently arranging her slightly messy hair, and not far away, she saw the figure dragging a faint shadow on the ground.

Talking to Occasional Suiliang always gives her a sense of ease, he will not force her to say or do anything, even if he knows that she is lying, coquettish, and willful, he will still smile and tolerate it. This man who doesn't talk much but often speaks amazingly is very good, calm, sophisticated, and always sees things deeper and farther than others with a pair of eyes, but it's a pity that he is used to converging the light and following Yi Huaiyu behind him, like a star that is covered under the light of the bright moon, exists, but does not exude the light it should have.

You must be happy to marry this kind of man, right?

Sima Tulan smiled lightly, with self-deprecation.

She doesn't deserve to be good by chance, it has nothing to do with her status, it's because she's too dirty, dirty, and self-righteous, and blames her for giving a heart to someone she shouldn't have given and can't get it back.

Paranoid like her, even if she knows that she is wrong, she refuses to repent, and she always has to hit the south wall until her head breaks and bleeds to death.

The silence of the two of them made the atmosphere quite embarrassing, and then Sui Liang poured a glass of water and handed it to Sima Tulan, and inadvertently collided with his finger bones, and the coldness spread down his skin to his heart. Sima Tulan was very thin, originally the kind of healthy and tall thin, but now her unique aura is gone, replaced by exhaustion and trance, so haggard that it makes her conscience feel distressed.

At such a close distance, he wanted to hold those shoulders and whisper to her that it was okay, to tell her that everything was okay, that the sky was falling and he was willing to stand up for her, and that he was willing to hold her up when the ground fell. As long as she wants, he can give her the safest and most fearless feelings, just like the bright color she left in his life, unique and unparalleled.

But he understands that it is more difficult to make Sima Tulan empathize with him than to ascend to the sky.

"Is it warmer?" Resisting the impulse, even Suiliang is still polite, and his speech and demeanor are polite.

Sima Tulan nodded, leaned on the head of the bed and slowly closed her eyes: "I want to sleep for a while, I'm so tired." ”

"Then go to sleep, while it's quiet outside." Shake off the quilt and fold it carefully, and stir the charcoal in the brazier, crackling and burning happily, which is very different from the mood. After standing by the bed for a while, seeing that Sima Tulan seemed to be asleep, he retreated to the door and prepared to leave.

"I'm sorry, Suiliang."

The apology was low and faint, so light that people wondered if the woman who was lying quietly on the bed had really spoken just now. Occasionally, Sui Liang did not hear the general response, and after staying at the door for a while, he gently closed the door and left quietly, with a smile on the corner of his lips and no joy or sorrow.

It was perhaps the first and last time she called his name.

Three days later.

The news that Sima Yuan and Yao Junxian were looking forward to had not yet arrived, and the emperor's holy decree was lowered first, whether it was responsibility or marriage, all the mess was thrown aside, and the entire palace and imperial capital were plunged into an unprecedented panic.

On the border, Zhao garrisoned troops and declared war.

As a teacher who taught the art of war, Tang Ke, the general of Zhaoguo, was very sad and angry, and asked King Zhao to fight in the case of Bai Jingfu's refusal to fight meaninglessly, and after receiving permission, he led 30,000 elite soldiers and 70,000 border troops, a total of 100,000 troops stationed at the border.

I don't know what the Emperor of Yaoguo thinks, it was he who sent Yi Huaiyu to the south, and now Tang Ke led his troops to retaliate, he blamed Yi Huaiyu for causing trouble. Fortunately, the main battle faction fought hard to aggrieved Yi Huaiyu in the court, which exempted Yi Huaiyu from responsibility, but the emperor seemed to be determined to give up this "unprofessional" son, plus the defeated and retreating border army of the distant country, only gave Yi Huaiyu 60,000 soldiers and horses, and added a sentence at the end of the sentence "This war is a personal grudge between the second prince and General Tang", completely throwing the responsibility to Yi Huaiyu.

The ministers in the court are desperate and sigh, the only person in the country who can handle the troops will inevitably be damaged this time, and some ministers do not care, pinning all their hopes on the tripartite alliance of Sima Yuan, Yao Junxian and Yi Huaiyu, and some people are still quiet, sitting and watching the wind surge.

Yi Huaiyu calmed down and calculated the number of private soldiers he had now, no more than 20,000 of them could be flexibly transferred to the border, and if there was no support from Sima Yuan's soldiers and horses, his maximum of 80,000 men would definitely not be able to compete with the elite soldiers of Zhaoguo.

At this time, Sima Yuan had already turned him away for the third time because of illness.

"Tang Ke led people to capture my four cities in Dayao one after another, at this critical moment, Sima Yuan still had the heart to pretend to be sick, and the daughter of their Sima family is really worth a lot!" Yi Huaiyu, who had eaten the closed door, was calm and calm on the way back from the General's Mansion, but as soon as he entered the house, his face immediately changed, and he complained to Lian Suiliang again and again.

"General Sima has always lacked assertiveness, and many decisions have been made by Lord Yao, and I think the same is true this time." Pointing to the old and yellowed map on the bookcase, Sui Liang couldn't help frowning, "Gumen and Taocheng have been lost, according to the current Tang Ke marching route, it will take less than a month to reach Qucheng." Qucheng is the second largest city in the south, if it can't be defended here, there will be countless people who will suffer, and His Highness must find a way to gather enough troops to stop it as soon as possible. ”

Yi Huaiyu irritably rolled up the map and threw it aside, looking at the eyes of the occasional Suiliang with some annoyance: "How can you let me stop it?" What stands in the way? Before, Tang Ke was somewhat afraid of attacking the city and plundering the land, and his father and emperor were confused and made it clear that he didn't care, this is good, then Tang Ke has no scruples, and he has taken the four cities in the south one after another, and I can't even gather the troops to meet the enemy here, so what else to fight! ”

The eyebrows are burned but there are no soldiers available, Yi Huaiyu has a big temper under internal and external troubles, and even Sui Liang can understand, looking at Yi Huaiyu's depressed expression, it is not a taste in his conscience - it is the Dayao country that has been attacked, and it is the people of Dayao who have been displaced, why can the emperor and Yao Junxian and others be as stable as a mountain without worry? The country will not be a country, can't they hear the mountains and rivers crying blood and the people wailing?

Sure enough, the only person who can protect this land and his bloodline compatriots is Yi Huaiyu.

"I remember that His Royal Highness once said that if you want to become a king, you must give and take." Occasionally, he opened his mouth, but he brought up a memory of a time many years ago.

Yi Huaiyu groaned for a while, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Sui Liang, if you have something to say, you have something to say." ”

"The love of children and the society of the country, which one does His Highness want?" Without waiting for Yi Huaiyu to answer, even Suiliang had already made a choice on his behalf, and his firm eyes were like stars, "Since His Royal Highness has affection for Miss Sima, it won't be too difficult to marry her, right?" Tonight, I will give a dowry for His Highness. ”
