Chapter 61: Guo Xin

Guo Ying was still immersed in the joyful sigh of the past eventful years, and he didn't pay any attention to Yan Lingbin's abnormality, and he was still talking endlessly about the customs and customs of the border pass, and at the end, he sighed: "It's just that the situation in the frontier today is very different from twenty or thirty years ago." ”

Yan Lingbin was silent for a moment, raised his delicate willow eyebrows, and asked curiously, "How do you say this?" ”

"Usually Anxi is thousands of miles away, but today's border defense is in Fengxiang, which is different." He sighed softly, his eyes wandering.

"That's the truth, speaking of Anxi, I heard that there is a Langjun in the Guo Lang clan who served as the queen of the four towns of Anxi, and led the Anxi army to stick to the Western Regions, and he is a hero!" Yan Lingbin mentioned Guo Xin lightly and subtly.

"Oh? Do you actually know my cousin Guo Xin? Guo Ying was a little surprised, he thought that Yan Lingbin, a pear garden opera, had heard all the wind and snow, idle and interesting things, and he would never care about the border affairs, and he didn't want her to know both the Anxi Army and his own brother, which made him quite surprised.

Yan Lingbin smiled and said: "Although the concubine was born in a pear garden, she has also heard of Guo Jiedu's prestige, but unfortunately I have rarely heard of Anxi news in recent years, I don't know if the mountains and rivers are safe?" ”

Hearing him mention Guo Xin again, Guo Ying also sighed, this cousin who is more than 20 years older than him, since he went out to the border to patrol Hexi and Anxi thirteen years ago, he has never returned to Zhongzhou since he was appointed as the fourth town of Anxi.

This cousin was known as the iron-blooded county king in later generations, and when the king's order was blocked, Anxi asked for more than ten years, and he didn't know whether the Central Plains had changed dynasties, he still regarded the border as his mission, resisting the erosion of Tibet day after day, and never slackened, and defended the Western Regions for more than 40 years until he sacrificed his life for the country.

It can be called a generation of loyal martyrs!

Just like Wen Tianxiang said in his poem - the minister's heart is a magnetic needle, and he refuses to rest if he does not guide him.

And Guo Xin is not a mediocre person with a spirit of loyalty and righteousness like Shi Kefa in Guo Ying's imagination, he can control the Anxi Army until he dies, and prevent the Anxi Army from causing civil strife in this precarious situation, and also develop internal affairs, carry out farming, mint coins, and accumulate strength, which is really commendable.

However, the Western Regions Protectorate has become an abandoned son of the imperial court, the Central Plains does not give money, and the second does not give people, only to give it to officials, no matter how prosperous the border soldiers are, Guo Xin and his old, weak, sick and disabled Anxi army still have to defend the lonely city, and they will not be able to return to the Chang'an City in their dreams for the rest of their lives.

Of course, this can't be entirely blamed on the ruthlessness of the court, and there are also reasons forced by the situation.

First, the west of the Longyou River was owned by Tubo, and the Tang army had no spare strength to march to recover the two places.

Second, back and forth is the relocation of the Tang Dynasty.

This bureaucrat once took advantage of his father Mo Yansi's conquest of the Qiangsi, Ge Lulu, and the nine surnamed Tatars, and launched a palace mutiny to kill the pro-Tang brother and Emperor Daizong's sworn brother Ye Hu, Prince Ye Hu, who was a figure like Li Er, ambitious, and had always regarded the Anxi Court as a thing in his pocket, and eyed it.

If he doesn't die, Anxi Court and the Central Plains will be separated for a long time.

Thankfully, he was dying.

Guo Ying is sure.

Because he saw a UnionPay advertisement in his previous life, "The Last Transfer of Datang Mobei", he was moved at the time, and later learned some relevant information, so he knew a lot about the things in the Jianzhong period.

If he remembers correctly, there will be a coup d'Γ©tat next year, and when the pro-Tang faction of Don Mohe takes the throne, perhaps the tension between Tang and Hui will ease a little, and the envoys from Anxi and Beiting may also be able to reach Chang'an smoothly.

It's just that Li Shi sent reinforcements or money and food to go back to the road to aid Anxiting, which is impossible.

He has always been a man of interest paramount.

Thinking about the Jingyuan Mutiny in history, in order to quell the civil strife, he was able to summon the Tubo soldiers into the country, and promised to cede Anxi, Beiting, Jingzhou, and Lingzhou, Guo Ying had long had no expectations for him.

There are evil examples of the Five Hu Chaohua and the Houjing Rebellion in front of him, and Li Shi dared to summon soldiers into the country, which is also commendable for his courage to be honest.

When Emperor Suzong and Emperor Daizong recalled Su to the south, at least Hui was still a serious vassal?

He's good......

However, if the Hui Dao can be colluded, it will always be a good thing, and then the imperial court will definitely send an envoy to canonize the new Hui Khan, if Guo Ying has a heart, it is not difficult to compete for the position of an envoy, and at that time, he may be able to send a group of strong death row prisoners to Anxi as reinforcements to help his cousin.

Moreover, Fan Ze happened to be in the Criminal Department, if he could gain a firm foothold in the Criminal Department, there should be some chance that this matter would be completed.

Thinking of this, Guo Ying's eyes lit up slightly, he looked up at Yan Lingbin, and said softly: "Although the mountains and rivers are sick, but the people with lofty ideals and the generals of the border cities are like good doctors, as long as the people with lofty ideals in the world do not die, the mountains and rivers will always have a day of rejuvenation." ”

"I hope so."

"Since this is the case, don't you hear that the clouds are open and the moon is bright." Guo Ying bowed slightly, and then changed his words, and said: "Since I have arrived in such a place, I have been talking to you for a long time, making me seem to be a person who worries about the country and the people, in your opinion, is it a bit sanctimonious." ”

Yan Lingbin shook his head with a smile: "Where is Lang Jun?" I know you're not that kind of person who doesn't do what you do. ”

"Hehe, lady, you can afford me." Guo Ying chuckled, suddenly remembered something, and added: "I don't know the lady, can you be with me tonight...... Not? ”

His tone was vague and suggestive.

Yan Lingbin's face was slightly red and he bowed his head and didn't answer, he only used the tea cup in his hand to block his shyness, but the watery peach blossom eyes were half-drooping, which made people peek through the delicate state, which made Guo Ying's heart more and more ape-like.

Guo Ying's heart itched so much that she couldn't wait to rush forward, and pressed the beautiful woman in her arms under her to take pity on her, but she was afraid that this was a hall, and she was worried that it would annoy the little lady, so she pressed her temperament and said, "But the lady doesn't want to?" ”

"What did Lang Jun say?" Yan Lingbin put down the teacup in his hand, raised his head, and said with a look of wanting to refuse and welcome.

"What do you think?" Guo Ying smiled and leaned closer, leaned over and rubbed Yan Lingbin's cheek.

Yan Lingbin heard that there was a faint trace of shyness and struggle between his eyebrows, but he still hesitated and bit his lip before whispering: "Concubine...... The concubine doesn't know. ”

"You have shared the bed with me and gone to Wushan together." Guo Ying is colorful.

Yan Lingbin was stunned for a moment, Rao was expected in her heart, and she didn't expect Guo Ying to say so directly and openly that she wanted to be happy with her, it was not that no one had told her this in the past, but it was all vaguely mentioned, but the person in front of her was so frank and frank that she felt ashamed.

She subconsciously felt that Guo Ying's request was very child's play, this kind of thing shouldn't be drunk and slightly drunk, and it will come naturally after flirting with you and me, why do you have to roar and roar?

Is he trying to get married overnight?

When I Yan Lingbin is something!

But she carefully observed Guo Ying's expression and saw that he was serious, obviously not joking, which made her feel a little apprehensive, and she couldn't help but hesitate to ask, "Is Lang Jun serious?" ”

"I'm serious." Guo Ying said as a matter of course.

When he kicks the door this way, he speaks very generously.

"But I'm ...... Later, I will also preside over tonight's wine party. ”

Yan Lingbin said.

"Just say that you are in poor health, just let Xi Jie replace you."

"But tonight's wine party is not ordinary, dozens of literati attending the meeting are coming with calligraphy, painting and poetry, when everyone is drunk, it is necessary to compete with each other, and it must be very interesting to taste it?"

"For me, these are not as good as a smile, if Qing is willing to take off his skirt and feast his eyes on me, that is really fun."

Guo Ying said with a smile.

Yan Lingbin glared at him, and immediately seemed to think of something, and suddenly smiled: "Lang Junxiu is going to have fun with his concubine, but there is an old friend of yours tonight, you really don't plan to see him?" ”

"Oh? Who is it? ”

Hearing Yan Lingbin mention the word "old man", Guo Ying's expression finally changed slightly, he sat up straight, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's falcon, and he said in a deep voice: "Who has a reason with me?" ”

"Longxi Li Yi, isn't it?" Yan Lingbin smiled at the corner of his mouth and asked slowly.

Guo Ying's pupils shrank sharply when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure, he casually fiddled with the jade wrench he was wearing on his wrist, and said lightly: "It's really not, such a pickled character, I have always looked down on him, and Qing will have less contact with him in the future." ”

To tell the truth, Li Yi and other contemporary Chen Shimei, he really can't look down on him, and it would be humiliating to ask him to fight with such people.

And Yan Lingbin saw that Guo Ying's attitude was so flat, and his expectations or evaluation of him in his heart couldn't help but rise one layer higher, his face was like a peaceful lake and his chest was thunderous.

Guo Lang, but if you are a father, you will worship the general!

Thinking of this, she suddenly thought about the next

There are eight more points of anticipation and two points of fear for what is going on.

She's afraid of pain!
