At dusk, the last ray of warm spring sun shone down, Han Rui put on a rose-red cloak, and there was a goose-faced girl in the distance in front of her, with a slender body, fair complexion, and crooked eyebrows and eyes, as if hiding the vast starry sky at night, and the cowardice in her eyes was clear at a glance.

"Say hello to the second sister. ”

She bowed down, and Han Rui helped her up affectionately: "Too many things have happened these days, the second sister didn't care about inviting the fourth sister out, and the fourth sister will go to the Churui Palace more in the future." ”

Her affection flattered the fourth princess, and a shy smile appeared on Goose Dan's face.

"Yesterday, the concubine caused trouble to the second sister. ”

Han Rui waved his hand: "It's okay, as long as the concubine knows what is powerful, now that Yan Ning and the abolished prince are colluding with the King of Qi, the stability of the capital is particularly important, if someone has a heart to fish in troubled waters, it is impossible to prevent it." ”

"The second sister is the princess who protects the country, and her vision and strategy are incomparable to us, fortunately, the second sister is as wise as a torch and pulled out this nail. ”

The fourth princess in front of her looks generous, looks beautiful and moon-like, and has a good temperament, which is indeed much stronger than the third princess Yan Ning.

She couldn't help but make a comparison between the two in her mind.

"The fourth sister is serious, Mama Chen is just a palace person, you and the concubine can just rest assured. ”

The two chatted speculatively, and Han Rui simply left the fourth princess for dinner in the Churui Palace, and asked Rouge to order the kitchen to make a few more dishes.

"Fourth sister, the salmon at this time is the most delicious, you can taste it. ”

She took a chopstick and put the salmon into the bowl of the fourth princess.

"Thank you, second sister. ”

The meal was delicious, and when it was getting late, Han Rui asked Rouge to pick up a few horses of material from the treasury of the Churui Palace and bring them back to the fourth princess.

Rouge made tea and brought it over: "The princess really likes the fourth princess?"

Han Rui smiled at the corner of her mouth, "Who doesn't like such a cautious and very measured girl, how did you inquire about it?"

The slave maid heard that Concubine Mei and the Queen Mother actually entered the palace at about the same time, and Concubine Mei has never been very favored, and the Queen Mother has always protected her, but then she suddenly became pregnant, and the two were separated. I heard that Concubine Mei suffered when she gave birth to the fourth princess, and almost collapsed and injured her body, and she couldn't get pregnant anymore after that. ”

"Hongu knows. ”

She said lightly, but her intuition told her that this matter was not so simple, and Concubine Mei was definitely not just secretly pregnant.

Rouge gossiped: "Will the princess and the fourth princess be so close to the queen mother? ”

"I know it. ”

Starry night, Ling Xin finally arrived at Fengshan, here is only a few hundred miles away from the capital, is a heavy city, but in the face of hundreds of thousands of iron horses of the king of Qi, Fengshan City is rumoring, many people in the city have already run, in the past this prosperous city was a little depressed in the night.

Ling Xin turned over and dismounted, and General Ma, the guard of Fengshan City, was already waiting at the city gate.

"The last general will see Master Hou. ”

Heli's holy decree has been announced to the world, but no one dares to underestimate this young man in front of him, his prestige has already resounded throughout the Jokhang Kingdom, and his dignity is not by marrying the eldest princess, but by accumulating military achievements.

Ling Xin threw the reins of the horse to Chang Shan, "How many troops are there in the city now?"

General Ma respectfully followed behind him and introduced: "Our Fengshan City is an important frontier city, and we have always amassed 30,000 troops, but now we haven't hit this Fengshan City for many years, and the 30,000 people who can go into battle to kill the enemy are probably less than 20,000." ”

Ling Xin frowned, turned around and walked along the city wall, reaching out to touch it from time to time.

"Gather men to strengthen the city walls at once, quickly, twelve hour shifts, and the soldiers will practice?"

"Since receiving the news, the last general has been stepping up his training and not daring to slack off. ”

"That's good, I got the news, King Qi's people have gone out of Shandong a day ago and rushed straight to Fengshan, the importance of Fengshan Benhou doesn't say that you also know, if Fengshan is lost, the capital may be difficult to hold, so this time Benhou and you live and die together. ”

The iron-clad words ignited the blood of the guards.

"Swear to live and die with the Hou Ye. ”

"Swear to live and die with the Hou Ye. ”

"Master Hou, all the way through the wind and rain, the last general has already asked people to prepare meals, let's use some first, and the subordinates of the city wall will be arranged immediately. ”

Ling Xin stopped him: "In addition to the reinforcement of the city wall, the weapons and arrows that can be used in the city must be checked, and these are the top priorities at very moments." ”

"Master Hou rest assured, these generals have already sent someone to check, and there is no problem. ”

Ling Xin nodded and followed the person designated by General Ma to the General's Mansion.

Fengshan City is an important frontier city, and the general's mansion is also very luxurious, and it can be compared with his own Yasukuni Mansion.

He followed the leader into the mansion, and the housekeeper immediately welcomed him into the main hall, and General Ma stomped in from the outside.

"Master Hou, it's already been arranged. ”

"Hmm. ”

The food delivered was simple, General Ma brought out a jar of good wine, and he already smelled the rich aroma of wine before he opened it.

"Save this wine and drink it when you win the battle. ”

After running around for two days and two nights in a row, Ling Xin was indeed hungry, and regardless of whether the food in front of him was as exquisite as in the Hou Mansion, he picked up the bowl and swept the clouds.

"General Ma, where is the topographic map of Fengshan?"

He put down the bowl and didn't even have time to rest, so he followed General Ma to the front hall, where there was a huge sand table on the table and a map on the wall.

She leaned over to look at the sand table, her fingers moving over it.

"Changshan, how long will it take for King Qi to reach Fengshan?"

"Three days at most. ”

"Okay, the day after tomorrow you take five thousand people and camp in this place. ”

Everywhere he pointed was to a canyon in Dafeng Mountain, where the mountains on both sides were high and densely forested, but it was a good place for ambushes.

"Yes. ”

General Ma rubbed his hands and was eager to try: "Master Hou, it's better to let the last general go, the terrain here is dangerous, and the last general will definitely stop people in this place." ”

Ling Xin glanced up at him, walked to the map on the side of the wall, and then returned to the sand table, he pointed to another place: "General Ma has more important things. ”

"The last will listen to you. ”

"Once Changshan catches the people of King Qi off guard here, they will definitely retreat here, and what you have to do is to wait for the rabbit, you don't have to fight, run away after the fight, harass them many times while they are repairing, make them sleepy and tired, and as soon as Dong Tingbo arrives, Ben Hou will lead the army to kill out, and it will not be a problem to take down the traitors. ”

When General Ma saw him, he arranged everything in an instant, and immediately patted his ass.

"It is worthy of being a Yasukuni candidate, and he is indeed a natural general, it turns out that the last general is still worried, but now that the Hou Ye arrives, the last general's heart can be regarded as returning to his stomach. ”

"General Ma took Ben Hou to see the soldiers. ”

In Fengshan City late at night, a few fast horses flashed by, Ling Xin followed General Ma to the school field in the south of the city, the school field in the middle of the night was very quiet, the two soldiers guarding outside the door were in good spirits and never relaxed, Ling Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

"From tomorrow onwards, General Ma will send people to guard the city gates, strictly check the people who enter the city, and do not mix with the traitors' spies. ”

"Yes. ”

After ordering all this, he turned his horse's head and went back to the general's mansion again, General Ma had already asked people to clean up the best room, he was not polite, pushed the door in, a strange aroma immediately lingered on the tip of his nose, in the darkness he saw a graceful figure moving behind the screen, he walked to the table and lit the candle.
