"That's it, that's it, the queen has always thought about the people of the Great Zhou, and she doesn't ask about the world, so let her chant and pray for blessings. Jane, come on, let's ......"

Emperor Wuchang has been indifferent to Empress Xu Mingzhu for a long time, and he is just looking for palace people to go through the motions. The queen didn't come, which was exactly what he wanted, and Emperor Wuchang was in a happier mood, able to drink freely, and was not restrained by some people.

Everyone is not used to seeing it, Queen Xu has lived in the Buddhist hall in the hall for a long time, chanting scriptures and participating in Zen, asking less about the world, and having no desires. Except for important ceremonies and festivals, it is now rare to attend banquets in the palace.

Hu House.

Located in Wenqufang, the Hu Mansion occupies a vast area, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is magnificent.

The food and clothing in the mansion were extremely extravagant and gorgeous, and the masters were able to enjoy the precious lychees brought from Lingnan earlier than the nobles in the palace, and even the footwashing buckets used by the masters were ironed with gold leaf and silver paper.

Inside the study.

Hu Yingwei and a middle-aged man sat on their knees.

"Gao Shangshu, how are things going?" Hu Yingwei asked coldly.

"Back to Xiangye's words, the spies in the Liangzhou army have been arranged, even if they catch Xianda Khan, Xianda Khan will never reach Chang'an alive. Yan Fu has been seriously injured by the secret guard, fell off the cliff, and now continues to search for his body, thinking that his whereabouts will be found soon, please rest assured. Gao Yi said flatteringly.

Gao Yi is the current secretary of the military department, and he is also the person recommended by Hu Yingwei.

"Just a bandit leader has been looking for months and useless. I don't think you want to sit in your position as the secretary of the military department. ”

Hu Yingwei held the teacup in his hand, raised his head, and looked at Gao Yi expressionlessly.

"Please calm your anger, please calm your anger. The subordinates also found that there was something very strange. Gao Yi hurriedly kowtowed to the ground and begged for mercy.

Hu Yingwei raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to continue.

"The spies of the Liangzhou army came to report that the original offensive route of the Liangzhou army was to attack the camp of Qishan Khan from the east to the north, but only a few days later, Li Yu suddenly attacked the camp of Yimu Khan in the west.

"Well, you're pretty smart. Benxiang also felt very strange, and immediately sent someone to investigate and report quickly. ”

"Xia Guan understands, please rest assured."

Gao Yi said a few words of flattery before bowing and retreating.

Hu Yingwei closed his eyes and pondered, now that there are fewer and fewer people available to him in the court, he needs to speed up his movements.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of August, and it was the day when Gu Huaixue was about to give birth.

As soon as Shen Yining stepped into Gu Huaixue's small courtyard, he saw a Lang Jun standing in the courtyard, who turned out to be the Tian master of the silk shop in Jiahuafang.

Tian Dangjia was pacing back and forth in the yard anxiously, his face full of worry.

"Shen Niangzi, you are here. The midwife said that Xue Niang had begun to have labor pains. ”

"Tian is in charge, don't panic, it will take a lot of time for a woman to give birth. Please be patient. ”

Gu Huaixue was still quite awake, and when she saw Shen Yining coming in, she hurriedly called her over.

"Aning, fortunately, fortunately, you came back safely. I'm but, but I'm worried......" Xue Niang gasped and said.

"Xue Niang, I'm fine, don't talk anymore, listen to the midwife's words, and ..... hard" Shen Yining hurriedly comforted her.

After two hours, I finally heard the loud croaking of the baby.

Tian Dangjia has been guarding the door, not leaving for a moment, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the child's cry.

"Xue Niang, it's a little lady, a fat little lady." Shen Yining excitedly hugged the child to show her.

A trace of disappointment flashed between Gu Huaixue's eyebrows, but it was fleeting, and she cried with a smile.

Month after month, spring goes to autumn, winter is cold and spring is warm.

The border was frequently reported, and the Beidi army was defeated and retreated, and soon retreated to the vicinity of Cen Pass.

In March of the 28th year of Wuchang, the two armies fought fiercely again in the town of Halle.

General Chen Jing changed his tactics many times and attacked the Beidi army from the rear, completely cutting off the rear supply of Xianda Khan's troops. The Beidi army was caught off guard and gradually tired of coping, Xianda Khan fled north with his family, and was finally captured by the Liangzhou army in a small inn on the way to escape.

The Beidi army suffered heavy losses, was disheartened, and had no intention of responding to the battle, and surrendered at Cen Pass on April 11. On May 20, Xianda Khan signed a peace agreement in Liangzhou Daying, and Beidi returned to the eight counties of Xizhou and bowed down to the Great Zhou. Xianda Khan and his family were escorted to Chang'an, the capital of God.

The Liangzhou army won a complete victory, and the division returned to the dynasty.

At the beginning of June, on the way back to Chang'an, there was an accident. The Khan and his princess committed suicide by poisoning themselves in the carriage.

In mid-June, the Liangzhou army finally arrived outside Chang'an.

Because of the long distance and the hot weather, the corpses of the Khan and the Great Princess had long since become decomposed, unrecognizable, and unrecognizable. The Great Khan of Beidi, who once dominated the Western Regions and commanded the entire Beidi, came to a bleak and lonely end, and no one cared about it.

In Hu's mansion, a man in black crossed the beam like lightning and went straight into the study.

"How?" Hu Yingwei turned his back to him, his face uncertain.

"Hui Lord, the virtuous khan and the princess are dead." The man in black replied neatly.

"How's the other thing going?"

"The subordinates traced it in many ways and found that Li Yu personally raided the camp of Yimu Khan that night, to save a woman, a doctor in a small pharmacy in Liangzhou City, whose name was Shen Yining. The epidemic in the Liangzhou camp before was cured by this person. ”

"You go down first and wait for my orders."

The corners of Hu Yingwei's mouth flashed with a sneer, a woman, still a langzhong, a little interesting.

Daming Palace, Taihe Palace.

Emperor Wuchang held a banquet to reward and reward the Liangzhou army for their military exploits. Imperial relatives and high-ranking officials in the court were invited to attend, and even Empress Xu, who had always been a widow, took the initiative to attend the banquet.

Sitting at the bottom of the left side is Hu Guifei, as well as several young beauties. On the opposite side sat the third prince, the Qin king, Li Cong, the fourth prince, the Chu king, Li Jin, the ninth princess, and the eleventh prince, Li Chen.

Qin King Li Cong's face was like a peach blossom, and several times the liquor was in his stomach early, and he caught a glimpse of several young beauties sitting down not far in front of him, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Li Jin, the king of Chu, was gentle and elegant, and greeted the civil and military generals who came to him one by one. also patiently coaxed the ninth princess Li Zhenyi, who lost her temper indiscriminately.

"Okay, okay, Zhenyi, don't make trouble, it's time to start the banquet......"

Li Zhenyi has been sitting in her position for a long time, bored and impatient. Li Zhenyi is the only princess of Queen Xu, who is over seventeen years old and has not yet married. Since she was a child, she has been pampered, pampered, and does whatever she wants, and few people in the palace can control her.

The eleventh prince, Li Chen, was only ten years old, and he sat obediently in his position, looking outside the palace gate from time to time, as if he was expecting someone.
