.

The Zhao brothers were sentenced to beheading, and the relevant officials were all questioned. All 27 of the traffickers were sentenced to beheading, and as many as 130 children were recovered from the three states involved.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Yun Zhao came to the upper study alone.

"Your Majesty, there are more than 100 men and women in the Zhao family, and they don't know about the bad karma committed by the Zhao brothers, please treat it leniently."

"The queen has come to you to intercede?"

"Nope." Yun Zhao raised his head, "The sins of the Zhao brothers and others are unforgivable. But the family is innocent. "

"So Dali Temple only sentenced to exile, and there was no continuous punishment."

Yun Zhao was shocked, and she looked at Ji Xingyan's eyes. There was too much scheming and indifference in those eyes, but there was always a little bit of warmth hidden when I looked at her.

Maybe she really ignored it before.

"Ah Yan, I have something to say to you."

Ji Xingyan's whole body trembled, and his eyes shone brightly, which was terrifying. Before he could speak, Hu Sanhai had already waved his hand and withdrew with someone.

There were only two of them left in the study, and Ji Xingyan stood up and walked in front of her, smiling.

"Ah Zhao, what do you want to say?"

"I think I failed you."

Her mindless words made Ji Xingyan frown. She continued: "Someone once said to me that Ah Yan may have a crush on me, but I never saw our relationship as a man and a woman. "

Ji Xingyan's face was frighteningly cold.

"Ah Yan, I shouldn't take care of your family affairs. But when these women enter the palace, whether they want to or not, you are their heaven. "

"You want to persuade me to be nice to them?" Ji Xingyan sneered, "You really have a compassionate heart." "

Yun Zhao lowered his head: "I just want to say, I'm sorry Ah Yan, I can't respond to your feelings." "

Ji Xingyan wanted to strangle her like this. Then no one will be able to torment him, no one will be able to crush his heart into the dust.

"Even if he's dead, what's not going to happen?"

Yun Zhao raised his eyes in surprise. He saw a flash of doubt in her eyes, and secretly blamed himself for blurting it out.

"Your Majesty, I ......" she hesitated when he snapped her call.

"Get out!" Ji Xingyan turned around and didn't look at her, "Get out!" "

Yun Zhao bowed his head silently and bowed to his back: "The minister retreats." "

Out of the study, Fang Jingliang was guarding the door.

Yun Zhao lowered his eyes and saw the sachet on his waist, and asked him, "Can you mention the marriage with the Marquis of Xuanping?" "

Fang Jingliang's face flushed, and he didn't know how to answer.

"I want to come to the Hou Ye because I don't look down on my Ronglai Hou Mansion."

Fang Jingliang hurriedly said: "No, no, Master Hou, my father is just ......."

Yun Zhao raised his hand to stop his words, stared at him and asked, "I just want to know, what do you think." "

"Glory and wealth are nothing outside my body, I just want to marry Yunduo, I will always be good to her, Lord Hou, please believe me. If my father does not agree, I will ask Your Majesty to grant me a marriage. If Your Majesty does not agree, I will take the clouds away and fly away. "

Yun Zhao stared at his eyes, a little moved. If she had such an affirmation at the beginning, she and Yanshu might not have ended up separated from yin and yang.

"Come to the Hou Mansion for dinner tomorrow, Yunduo shouldn't have seen you for a few days."

Fang Jingliang scratched his head embarrassedly: "Thank you Master Hou for your success." Duo'er goes to school all day, but I'm afraid I'll forget about it. "

He has some resentment, and he is a little cute in Yun Zhao's eyes, which is a match for Yun Duo's girl.

"If she revolves around you every day, I'm afraid you're going to be annoying."

"Duo'er is not annoying at all. She's not a girl who chatters endlessly, I like to talk to her, she says so nicely......"

Yun Zhao interrupted him with a smile: "Okay, if you have something to say, you can say it tomorrow." Don't show off my sister in front of me. "

Fang Jingliang blushed.

In the autumn, the weather was getting colder, Yun Zhao was sick for a few days, and she wanted to go to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion to talk about Yunduo's marriage, so it was delayed again, but fortunately, she ().. co

.

It's still small, not so anxious.

She mentioned it to Yunduo, but Yunduo didn't care.

"Sister, don't worry about me, I just want you to take care of yourself."

Yun Zhao survived another long autumn and winter, and it was the spring of the following year that he really got better.

In March of the third year of Xinghe, the Yuyang Pass began to regain its vitality after the ice and snow melted, and the farmers who ploughed the land for spring planting were all happy.

At the end of March, it was the time of spring ploughing, the prince of Western Qin led a large army to conquer the northern line, Gu'an Pass was lost, Gu'an City was slaughtered, and Shuozhou was in an emergency.

Yun Zhao learned the news from the fifth child, and he didn't have time to change his court clothes, so he hurriedly entered the palace.

She made her way to the upper study unimpeded. The emperor just raised his eyes lightly: "Let's all go down." "

Yun Zhao knelt down at him: "The minister asked for orders to go to Shuozhou and take back Gu'an Pass." "

She knelt down with the emperor and didn't say anything, and she didn't let her get up.

"The minister asks the emperor to play."

After a long time, a pair of gold-threaded dragon pattern black boots appeared in front of her eyes, and Ji Xingyan bent down to scoop up Yun Zhao.

"In the past few months, you have not entered the palace, ignored the affairs of the court, and only raised your body in the house. Cultivate more and don't worry about these things. "

He was really scared, he thought she was getting better, but she would suddenly collapse.

The image of her lying in bed and having no love lingered in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

"As a general guarding the frontier, this is the duty of the minister."

The emperor smiled lightly, and the hand that squeezed her arm became harder and harder: "You have been sick these days, but you are well?" "

"The minister has been healed."

"You're very picky about your illness." The emperor's gaze was light and cold.

Yun Zhao looked at him in surprise, vaguely groping for what he meant.

"Even if the illness is not cured, the minister will ask for orders to go on the expedition." Yun Zhao looked at him persistently.

"Now there are wars in the south and in the north, and there are troops in the east. Even if I agree with you to go, I can't give you reinforcements, so what's the use of you going alone? "

"If the minister dies, he will definitely recapture Gu'an Pass."

The emperor's eyes staring at her were hairy, and he smiled coldly and shallowly: "Death? It's so easy for you to spit out that word now. If it weren't for this loyalty, you wouldn't have survived, would you? "

"Does the emperor think that if I die, is it not worth it?" Yun Zhao looked at him, glared at him, viciously and resentfully, "In four years, the land south of Shuozhou can finally grow crops. The people of Shuozhou have lived a peaceful life for four years. Gu'an was lost, Shuozhou bore the brunt, and the people of the five cities were also His Majesty's people. If you can use your ministers to exchange for thousands of people to sleep peacefully night and night, Yun Zhaojiu will not regret his death. "

Ji Xingyan collapsed in her gaze. He almost gave up, her gaze so pure that he didn't dare look at it.

"Okay, I'll let you go. But you must come back safely. "

"The minister will never be dishonored."

Yun Zhao left Yun Duo behind and handed her the title deeds of all the Yun family's properties.

"If I can't come back this time, you will go to Yuyang, you can keep these things well, enough for you to live a lifetime with plenty of food and clothing."

The candlelight was shadowing, and her face was blurred.

The clouds wept in fright, and their puppy-like eyes filled with tears. She looked at Yun Zhao and asked, "Sister, don't you want to come back?" "

Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment, as if his childhood self appeared in front of him. It's like she dreamed countless times in her dreams that her father was leaving, and she wanted to ask him if he just didn't want to come back.

But that was a long, long time ago.

Yun Zhao gently touched her head and smiled at her: "I'll be back." I haven't married you yet. "

"Then you have to come back to support me and see me get married, Sister, I can't live without you." The clouds slipped into her arms aggrievedly and hugged her waist tightly.

"Okay, I promise you. You also promised me that it would be fine to be alone at home. "

"I'll wait for Sister Ah to come back."

On the way to the south, Yun Zhao often thinks that if he ().. co

.

There is really something wrong with this, is it a relief? She was finally able to find the inkstone.

But she still thinks about the clouds, and the one in the Chaoyang Palace. She hasn't found a satisfactory Langjun for Yunduo to pave the way for her in the second half of her life, and she hasn't helped His Majesty open a peaceful and prosperous world.

Yanshu, you wait for me a little longer.

Yun Zhao arrived at Yuyang Pass, and returning to the barracks was an exciting thing.

The soldiers were very excited when they saw her.

"The Purple Marquis is back!"

"Master Hou is back!"

"There is hope!"

Yun Zhao burst into tears because of this. She has been in the capital for too long, immersed in her own children's love, and now the wind on the frontier has awakened her will to sleep for too long.

She is not only the prime minister of the court, not only the Marquis of Ronglai in the capital, but also the commander of the three armies, she is the Marquis of Purple in the south!

Several generals were also very excited to see Yun Zhao, and they looked at her eagerly, all with tears in their eyes.

"The last general welcomes the boss back to the camp!"

Yun Zhao stood in front of the door of the tent, flicked his cloak, and turned to look at the soldiers. The enthusiastic and excited faces that looked at her made her feel another life.

"Soldiers! I am back! Her voice trembled with excitement, "Four years ago, we captured Gu'an Pass, and the bloody battle of Laoshankou was exchanged for the stability of Shuozhou in the past four years. This time, we still have to attack Xiqin and recapture Gu'an Pass! "

"Recapture Gu'an Pass!"

"Recapture Gu'an Pass!"

"Recapture Gu'an Pass!"

The enthusiasm and high morale made Yun Zhao tremble. The spring breeze is steep, and the cold can't resist the heat wave surging in her heart. new

In the tent, several generals gathered around the sand table and talked about the current situation to Yun Zhao.

"The 150,000 troops of Western Qin are now stationed outside the old mountain pass, and General Cheng has led his troops to guard the old mountain pass for three days." General Yu frowned, "The prince of Western Qin is personally on the expedition, and now is the time when morale is high. "

General Gu took a sip, stared at a pair of round eyes and scolded: "These Western Qin people are all untrustworthy guys, we have clearly agreed not to invade each other for ten years, a bunch of dogs!" "

His loud voice made Yun Zhao feel more cordial. Even though his temper was short, Yun Zhao still smiled gently.

"Although the prince of Western Qin has been favored, he is still young, and he urgently needs military merit at this time, and he must win a quick victory. They have recaptured Gu'an, they shouldn't venture again......" Yun Zhao frowned and stared at the sand table, "Is there any change in the Gully Pass?" "

"There has been no change."

"Let Lu Han keep an eye on it, we can't stand the enemy now."

Yun Zhao's worried appearance made everyone a little worried.

"What about Lu Xiao, the general of Gu'an?" She asked suddenly.

General Yu arched his hand and said: "Lu Xiao abandoned the city and fled, and His Majesty ordered to arrest and return to Beijing." "

Yun Zhao felt something beating in her mind, stirring her upset. co
