429 Langu
"Great King," Kun was already weeping, "since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, and as a human minister, I cannot watch my father kill the king without stopping it; However, Kun, as a son of man, could not see his father die in front of the army. The king, please step on the kun, lest your subordinates be in this dilemma!"
"Well, it's okay—" Ji Hu sighed, "You have the merit to save the driver, and you can't ignore it." Lone can give up the pursuit, and your father's life and death will be left to heaven!"
"Ministers die to thank the king for not killing!" The Kun bowed his head repeatedly.
The fact that the royal city guards gave up the pursuit did not mean that the fate of the 30,000 cavalry would take a turn. When the Zhou army's ox cart crossbow array was swinging under the banner of the cloud cart, it had already loosened the wooden ramming wheel and masonry and started slowly.
At this time, a long dragon of crossbow machines was just in front of him, the horn was fierce and the arrows rained down, and the Zhou army was like a tide that met the mountains and rocks, and it rolled back with a bang. The iron cavalry of the guards behind them pressed down like a mountain and a sea, and the fan shape spread on three sides far exceeded the galloping force of the Yi army. In a moment, the sound of red and yellow staggered killing, and the whole earth trembled......
In just half an hour, the Sanchuan field fell silent in the autumn twilight.
"The guards and rescuers are late, and my king is frightened, and I hope that the king will forgive his sins!" As soon as Wei Houhe saw him, he fell to the ground.
Ji Hu hurriedly helped him up, and punched him in the chest: "You and I still say these polite words, don't you see the outside? To tell the truth, Mr. Rong Yi said that there were reinforcements from the Wei Nation, but he still refused to believe it, in this hurry, how can you mobilize 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses?"
"This has to talk about the merits of Mr. Rongyi's Fandi branch."
It turned out that the news of Yu Zhong's defeat was one day earlier than Zhi's Echeng branch. The branch leader made two preparations, one to send a letter to Rongyi, who was far away in Rushui, and the other to send a private message to Wei Houhe in Luoyi. Wei He had enough time to mobilize the more than 10,000 foot soldiers of the Eighth Division of Cheng Zhou, as well as his own 8,000 guards, and more than 10,000 guards of Luoyi City, and went south in time. This is constantly passing on the road on the horse, adjusting the direction of travel while walking, so that it can arrive at the intersection of Suizao Road in time to set up an ambush.
"What branch leader has such an aptitude for an unknown prophet?" Ji Hu was very curious.
"Well...... Wei He glanced at Ji Hu, his expression a little weird.
"What are you doing with your eyebrows? Which one exactly? Could it be that you can't recognize it?" For his own small hair, Ji Hu has never been taboo when he speaks.
"Okay, okay, I say, I say." Wei He lowered his voice and leaned into Ji Hu's ear and said, "Does the king still remember the 'Buzhi' building in Chaoge City?"
"Remember, what?" Ji Hu's heart suddenly moved, and he asked with a glare, "Could it be ...... Is that her?"
"Exactly." Wei He nodded.
In the past two nights, Ji Hu has lost sleep. When the pillow is on the opposite side, there is always a wisp of fragrance like the ice and snow in the distant mountains lingering on the tip of the nose...... The owner of Bu Zhilou, the leader of the Fandi branch of the Nanlin Society, the harem strategist in the mouth of Wei He and Lu Shou, with so many identities, how can she be familiar with a woman? What a mysterious woman.
He really wanted to ask Wei He and Lu Shou, what does this Wu Kui look like? But I'm too embarrassed to speak. It's better to leave a mystery, he thought.
Just when he was restless, Gongzi Kunlai resigned.
"What, you're going back to Hubei?" Ji Hu couldn't believe his ears: "Eyufang's betrayal has been revealed, your father and son have torn their faces, if you go back like this, aren't you afraid that he will kill you?"
"Your Majesty, your ministers understand. But after all, he is the biological father of the minister, and the minister is in the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, and his center is like a thorn every day, and he can't sleep at night. After thinking about it, the only way to return to Hubei was to persuade his father to change his course and seek the road of both worlds. If it fails, the father will definitely hit the stone with an egg, and the minister can only accompany him with death, with the righteousness of the whole father and son, and the festival of the king and the minister."
"You ......" Ji Hu looked at his resolute gaze, knowing that it was useless to persuade again, and sighed lightly, "Since you have decided, Lone can't stop it. Is there anything you have left to do that you can do with your might?"
"Great King," Kun arched his hand, "Kun has nothing to worry about, but when he was gone, he had already married a wife. She was originally a personal maid by her aunt's side, called an uncle. I also hope that the king will look at the thin noodles of the kun
Forgive her for her previous sins, and allow her a place to live and die in peace."
"Uncle? But the previous Xuanning Palace Order? How is she?" When Ji Hu heard this name, he had to be surprised.
E Kun didn't expect Ji Hu to remember such a past clearly, and he was even more worried in his heart: "Yes, but soon after she returned to China, she asked herself to leave the palace because of a disagreement with her father, and she has been living among the people for a long time."
Ji Hu waved his sleeves calmly: "But a palace maid, acting naturally obeys its master, how can Lone be so narrow, just promise you." Where is she now? Lone can send someone to take her to Luojing or Hojing, Xu Yi's house, and she will die in peace."
E Kun was overjoyed and kowtowed, "Before returning to China, the Nanlin Society has escorted her to the Lan Valley of the Fandi Branch. Oh, by the way," he said, taking out a crown of bluegrass from his bosom, and solemnly handing it over, "this is the legacy of my wife, and she will believe what the man says."
Ji Hu took Lampey, and his eyebrows jumped: This fragrance ...... Good student familiarity! Unconsciously, his mind moved, and he asked lightly, "Can the leader of the Fan Society be in Langu?"
"My wife once said in a letter that the leader was a woman who was masked with a black veil and took good care of her."
"That's her......
"Who does the king say?" The Kun was a little dazed.
Ji Hu smiled faintly: "Childe, please rest assured, Lone will personally go to Langu and take Madam Zun to Luojing."
E Kun was flattered: "How can the king of the cheap inner Lao be respected? Kill the ministers!"
"Hahaha...... Ji Hu smiled, "Gongzi is determined, and Lone can't be dissuaded; Now that Lone is determined, Childe doesn't need to persuade him!"
Fortunately, the original Fanguo hometown is near the entrance to the southern end of Suizao Road, and it is precisely because this geographical location is a critical place that the Eyu side is bound to swallow up Fanguo.
Fifty miles west of Fancheng is the Blue Valley. It is also named because the orchid grass flourishes and grows all over the valley.
Orchid grass, the flowers are light yellow and the leaves are light green, the fragrance is quiet and refreshing, the grass is also used as a flower and medicine, the heart of the people, the needs of the people, the wind and dust of the temple are all regarded as the beloved things. The people of Jianghan especially love orchid grass, and wear orchid grass ornaments far more than the Central Plains Peiyu. Later generations of Qu Zi Youyun: "Su Qiulan thinks I admire." That's what we're talking about.
Orchid grass benefits the world, and there is another great use, which is the wonder of orchid paste. Orchid paste is an oil made of orchid grass, if it is used to light lamps, it can not only produce incense but also repel insects; Women use orchid ointment and oil to make their hair moisturized like a cloud, and fragrant like a flower all day long. "Lisao. The Conjuring Cloud: "Lan Paste Bright Candle, Huarong Prepare Some." From this, the bluegrass got another name called Zelan, which is also called.
Seeing the green and yellow grass in the mountains and bluegrass in the sunset, as the mountains and valleys stretched endlessly, a little bit of wind and dust fatigue on the way of Ji Hu had already been thrown out of the clouds. Pulling Wei He off the horse to pick a few large handfuls of bluegrass, weaving into two green and yellow flower crowns, and weaving into a knee-long Lampey, with a flower crown on his head and a Lampey around his neck, dancing and screaming on the hillside.
Qi Zhong, the chamberlain who pretended to be a driver, was a little overwhelmed, and stepped forward to persuade: "King, the sun is over, it's better to hurry!"
Ji Hu was a little stupid: "Taking you people is a disappointment, and you can do everything."
"You can pull it down!" Wei He gasped and quipped, "If Mr. Rongyi or the Prime Minister come with you, you still dare to be so presumptuous?"
"Summoning Xiang is far away in Luojing, alas! Xu has already received the military report of the defeat of the Eighth Division of Chengzhou......" As he spoke, Ji Hu's mood suddenly became heavy.
Wei He saw that the haze between his eyebrows was gradually gathering, and quickly changed the topic: "Then Mr. Rongyi wants to follow, why are you desperately unwilling to agree? Could it be that you are afraid that the master and apprentice will be restrained from meeting and hindering you from talking about the past relationship with Miss Wu Kui?"
"Who has a relationship with whom? I don't know what it looks like? What's the story?" Ji Hu blushed: "They are all twenty-year-old people who are about to become fathers, and they still speak so out of tune?"
"A man is a teenager until he dies, what's wrong with being a father?" Wei Hehun didn't care, and suddenly said, "To tell the truth, the king, you are twenty-four, and seeing that Shen Jiang is eighteen, it should be married in two years at most." If...... Although I haven't dealt with this witch too much, I also understand that this kind of woman is by no means a human being, and when the time comes, ...... It's too early to say so much and do more
Yet!"
"Lone is just curious, nothing else." Ji Hu smiled indifferently.
Turning a mountain bend, the canyon suddenly opened, a sparkling and clear water waved in front of you, the sky and clouds, the mountains and trees and forests were all overlapped and reflected, and it was suddenly refreshing. Qi Zhong, the driver, watched for a while, and saw that the two mountains on the other side of the lake were intermittent, so he walked around the meadow by the lake.
"King, Langu Manor has arrived!" In the twilight, Qi Zhong raised his whip and pointed at it.
Sure enough, on the white stone cliff at the east end of the mountain pass, the two big red characters "Orchid Valley" are faintly visible. The hollow valley is secluded, and there is no protection at the mouth of the valley. Walking into the valley, it is already twilight, and I can see a little wind lamp flickering in the distance, and a piano sound floats in the valley wind, soothing and deep. Qi Zhong suddenly lifted the reins of the horse, and the cart quickly flew towards the light.
Gradually, a faint piece of buildings spine, the four corners of the high watchtower swaying huge wind lanterns, with the wind came the sound of fighting, an old shout is extraordinarily long: "The first shift has arrived, the tiled house lights out——"
Suddenly, the lights of the low tiled houses that undulated along the hill were extinguished, and only the three wooden buildings at the base of the hill flickered with a little light. Apparently, here is the owner estate of the Lan Valley.
When the horse team arrived at the square in front of the village, Qi Zhong came down and came to the gate of the village. At this time, the autumn moon has reached the top of the mountain, the majestic stone workshop is quiet in the moonlight, and there are three large copper lamps hanging on a high pole next to it, and the two big characters of "Lanzhuang" are impressively visible.
