Blue clouds, yellow leaves.

On the official road covered by the forest, the scattered teams stepped on the scattered leaves, and walked out of a bleak feeling that complemented the west wind.

Of the 5,000 people, only about 3,000 remained, and many of them were still suffering serious or minor injuries.

And this is because Xiao Fengshan fully revealed the battle array experience he had accumulated for half of his life, and risked the arrows and stones to resist the young man who was really as brave as a natural flying general, so that he could avoid a one-sided massacre.

The price was a deep bony scar under his ribs.

He may not have lost to Xia Yunfei, but to age.

But to lose is to lose.

Under the sword, everyone is treated equally.

On the battlefield, just look at the results.

His lips turned slightly pale from blood loss, but his hands were firmly on the reins, and his eyes were calmly staring straight ahead, as if the shocking news and a hand-to-hand defeat had not left any ripples in his heart.

But everyone knows that this is just a façade of force.

"General, why don't you rest on the spot first?"

Xiao Fengshan shook his head slowly, "You go and appease everyone, let's go back to the camp tonight and rest in the camp!" And to tell you, I have already arranged the next things, so there is no need to worry. ”

The adjutant general nodded, knowing that the military was serious at this moment, and turned his horse's head to leave.

Xiao Fengshan stretched out his hand and pressed the wound under his ribs, lightly clamping the horse's belly, the horse didn't know what was happening, and still walked forward with light steps carrying the heavy person.

Back in the barracks, it was already a burst of cooking smoke, the night was hazy, Xiao Fengshan galloped straight into the Chinese army's big tent, and then immediately raised the tent.

When the generals arrived one by one, from their unnatural looks, Xiao Fengshan knew that they had learned the news.

"You've already learned the news from Zhongjing."

Xiao Fengshan sat behind the desk and opened the head of the chat with a nonsense sentence.

The generals nodded silently.

Xiao Fengshan's gaze swept over everyone's faces, "After learning the news, you are still willing to come by order, I am very pleased." ”

He propped up the table with his hand and said in a deep voice: "You can rest assured, I have successfully turned the tables in a more severe situation than this, and now I have so many chips in my hand, there is no reason to admit defeat and not be able to beat." As long as we work together, the changes in Zhongjing will only be a small obstacle on the road to our great cause. And you will be the ones who will receive the most rewards and the most glory in the future! ”

According to Xiao Fengshan's expectations, when these words were finished, these people should have knelt on one knee and shouted that they were willing to die for the adults, but at the moment, everyone was silent, just looking at him silently.

Clearly, something went wrong.

"What? Don't have confidence in who you are? ”

He asked tentatively.

An adjutant general sighed and said, "My lord, you were leading the troops in the battle before, and there may be some things that you are not very clear, please let the last general know more." ”

Then he told him exactly what he had learned.

When he heard the adjutant general talk about the seemingly extremely tricky situation of Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Tai being captured, the Black Ice Platform being destroyed, and Xuanhu being nowhere to be found, Xiao Fengshan was not too moved, although it was an extremely headache, but some things were not unsolvable.

When he was suppressed by Emperor Chongning for ten years, he was accustomed to man-made tenacity, and his previous success also brought him strong confidence.

However, when he heard that Xia Jingyun ghostwrote for the new emperor and wanted to hunt down him and the British duke, he changed slightly, "Do you know the content of the text?" ”

As a literati, he knows too well how the literati's pen can kill.

What's more, Xia Jingyun is a person who is famous in his own right.

However, when he took the text from the deputy general and opened it, he found that he still underestimated Xia Jingyun too much.

[The thief Ming took advantage of the mound, dreamed of being favored by the tree, was in the Eastern Dynasty, and the thieves Lu Rusong and Xiao Fengshan relied on each other to return to the traitor. 】

[He Wu is mad and unrestrained, and he helps with evil, and finally rebels. The hearts of the four seas are broken, the people and gods are crying blood, and since the birth of the people, they have not heard of disasters. 】

[The first Holy Spirit, knotted in the hearts of the people, against the great number, the heavenly reason, the country without a father, there is nothing in the world. 】

[Today, the thief has it, but there are thieves Lu Rusong and Xiao Fengshan who are free, and they should spread the word to the world and gather people with lofty ideals in the world to attack it! ] The culprit of the hero, Shaoxue's revenge! 】

[The situation is ugly and unrelated, and people and ghosts are back. It will be like pouring fireflies into the sea, crushing eggs in the mountains, and the success can be expected! 】

The ink words were like knives, piercing his heart all at once.

At this moment, he finally understood where the worries and doubts he had been faintly lying in were coming from.

It came from the sword that Dongfang Ming stabbed at Emperor Chongning that day.

That sword not only penetrated the heart of Emperor Chongning, but also penetrated his self-proclaimed loyalty, patriotism, and upright heart.

What fell suddenly was not only Emperor Chongning's body, but also his self-deceptive belief that everything in his self-perception was for the sake of this country and the common people.

Improper position is a thorn that can never be pulled out of his heart, making it difficult for him to sleep;

Killing the king and killing his father was a shadow that lingered in his heart, and all his fears and insecurities came from this.

So, he doubts, he worries, he worries, he suffers.

He feared that everything in front of him was just a dream, and he feared that the glory of the moment would be boiled by fire, because good would eventually triumph over evil.

And he became evil.

He is no longer a seemingly ordinary but flawless rock as before, but a peacock bluffing with gorgeous feathers, but in this bluff, he reveals his ugly timidity.

Now, all this that was originally hidden under the monstrous power has been ruthlessly pierced by this article with cold words.

These words are like a sharp sword, and like a beam of majestic light, so that he finally saw everything in his heart in the military camp of Sixiang Prefecture.

He looked at the last paragraph,

【. Now the general trend has been achieved, the prestige has been received, the cheap has made meritorious contributions due to change, and the snow is tired; If something is not obtained, it can be disobedient, and second; If there is a guard, the party will be a murderer, and the punishment will be unforgivable, and five cases will be killed. The subject of rewards and punishments is like the sun and the moon. The original fire is burning, the foreign body is the same as the ash, fortunately for many blessings, and there is no regret. 】

He could almost imagine how many people would wander when this article spread all over the world, and even those who were originally biased towards them would fall to the king of Jiaodong because of this.

He was already a little weak after suffering a minor injury, but at this moment he only felt his qi and blood surging, and he couldn't help but feel dizzy in his head, and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the soldiers on the side hurriedly supported him.

Xiao Fengshan pursed his pale and bloodless lips, waved his hand, and said forcefully: "It is the absolute henchman of Benxiang who sits in Xiangyang, and he can't get out of Yunmeng Prefecture for a while, and the soldiers and horses of Longshou Prefecture in the east are stopped by us, and Zhongjing City is isolated. ”

He took a few breaths, "For today's plan, the only way is to return to the army quickly, take advantage of their unstable situation, and set things right!" After that, there was still a lot to be done. ”

His eyes swept over the soldiers under his command, and a trace of madness and determination flashed in his eyes, "Gather the army tonight and return to Beijing tomorrow!" Contact the British duke, talk to him about the interests and disadvantages, and agree to return to the army together. Tell him that the emperor will choose another son of the Dongfang clan to succeed him, and the one who enters Zhongjing first will be the regent! ”

The generals left, Xiao Fengshan relieved his strength, slowly walked outside the big tent, and looked up at the sky.

The moon was full and late autumn, and he couldn't turn back.

——

Sujiawu, the council hall.

Yue Yang Taishou sat first on the left, and sat around a large table with seven or eight other scribes of different appearances, on which were placed maps and various documents.

They didn't look at the paperwork, but looked at the old man sitting on the throne with some reverence.

The first champion of the dynasty who even won the three yuan;

Renowned all over the world, recognized as a generation of virtuous ministers;

assisted Emperor Chongning in dragging Daxia out of the quagmire in the first ten years of his succession, revealing the absolute hero of the image of Zhongxing;

The old husband of the Su family, Su Zongzhe.

In this battle, except for Yue Yang Taishou, the rest of the people were all famous people from all over the world who had grown up listening to the great reputation of Su Lao Xianggong since they were children, and they all gathered under his wings convincingly at this moment.

"Over there in Xiangyang, how is the battle going?"

After all, Old Minister Su is not young, and his voice is not loud, but with a calm and peaceful temperament, it clearly enters everyone's ears.

Yue Yang Taishou hurriedly said: "Back to Xianggong, Xiangyang General Wang Jixiong is a veteran general in the army, and he is the first deputy general of Xiao Fengshan that year, he is loyal to the puppet emperor's rebel party, and the garrison is especially strict, and all the generals on the front line have exhausted all means, and they have not been able to take the city for the time being." ”

Everyone was a little worried when they heard this, don't look at the momentum now, it seems that they have won the land of Sanzhou, but Surabaya Prefecture is difficult to attack but also difficult to get out, the main passage of Yunmengzhou to the north was blocked by a Xiongcheng, and the only Longshou Prefecture that can directly threaten Zhongjing, now there is also Xiao Fengshan, who is extremely familiar with Longshou Prefecture and has a high prestige, for the first time with an army of 20,000 to directly conquer, this situation is not as easy as outsiders rumored!

Old Minister Su didn't seem to see everyone's expressions, and continued to ask, "Have the rebellions in Surabaya Prefecture and our Yunmeng Prefecture been quelled?" ”

A scribe stood up, "Hui Xianggong, all have subsided, now don't talk about it elsewhere, just say that our Surabaya Prefecture and Yunmeng Prefecture, at least the rebels are hidden, the people are safe, I think it won't be long before I come, there will be a grand occasion of political communication and harmony, and all kinds of waste are prosperous!" ”

The people who answered were all excited, but a few people in the audience were quite unimpressed.

There are more than these two states in the world, what's the use of just taking these two states?

After governing these two states well, how can they win the reputation of a political and well-known people?

Once the imperial army attacks, how should it be handled?

Could it be true that it is just a local government that divides its dominance?

Old Minister Su said slowly: "This is very good. We are raising the banner of righteousness and raising righteous teachers, but it is for the sake of the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers, and to promote the humanity of heaven and earth, and we must not do things like rebels and bandits. You and others need to take stock of the recent events as soon as possible, including how to persuade local officials to surrender and minimize losses in the process of attacking; The characteristics of bandits, how to exterminate the most easy and reasonable; After the extermination of bandits, how to govern a city and a place, and what are the common policies. In this case, a charter should be drawn up as soon as possible so that it can be used in the future. ”

Everyone responded spontaneously, but they sighed a little in their hearts, Su Lao Xianggong didn't know if he was old and confused, or if he was a literati prime minister after all, and he didn't know the bloodshed and cruelty of the world's hegemony.

Now that their strength is still weak, they have not stopped to work on these internal affairs at all!

At this time, although the matter of local security is heavy, it is more important that we should directly gather the troops of the two states first, make every effort to conquer Xiangyang, and open up the road to Zhongjing!

Then the soldiers came to Zhongjing, seized the big position, and set things right, this is the right way to fight for the world!

What is this doing now?

is still blocked at the door of the house, and has he already begun to think about the wind from all directions?

Isn't it too ambitious or too much to take for granted?

As soon as they thought of this, some of them even began to worry about whether their choice was correct or not.

Footsteps sounded outside the door, there was a light knock on the door, and a messenger walked in quickly, and was about to speak with a little excitement, looked at the rest of the people, silently shut up, and just handed over a letter to Su Lao Xianggong.

Looking at the messenger's windy appearance and excited expression, everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes to Su Lao Xianggong, who was slowly opening the letter.

Seeing that he read them one by one, his expression was as flat as if he had drunk a sip of white water, and if he added a sip of wine to the water, it would not be so bland.

After reading it silently, Su Lao Xiang folded the letter paper fairly, "Where did you just say?" ”

A scribe smiled bitterly and said, "Su Xiang, tell us what the news is, you can see that our hearts are like cat scratches." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, "Yes, Su Xiang, let's talk about it quickly!" ”

Old Minister Su smiled faintly, "It's nothing, haven't you been wondering where the king of Jiaodong is!" Yesterday morning, he and Xia Jingyun got into trouble in Beijing, broke through the palace city, captured the puppet emperor, and now he is in the middle palace and succeeds to the throne. We have to speed up, otherwise we won't be able to keep up with Zhongjing's pace! ”

There was a sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground, and everyone was so shocked that they couldn't care about any manners, they stood up one after another, and asked in a gossipy voice:

"Really?"

"How is that possible!"

"How could it be! How do they do it? ”

"Su Xiang, you won't lie to us, will you?"

Old Minister Su glanced at them slowly, and said lightly: "It seems that your hearts are already in turmoil, and this matter can't be discussed." The letter is here, you read it slowly, that article, study it well, the old man sees that there are always some of you who disagree with Xia Jingyun's talent in private, look at this article, you may be able to write it. ”

He got up slowly, "Wait until you're settled, let's talk about it!" ”

Looking at the back of Su Xianggong's calm departure, some people couldn't help but sigh: "It is worthy of Su Xianggong, after the ups and downs, this indifference and calmness is really worth learning from me." ”

"Such a big event can be so calm, breathtaking, breathtaking!"

"Today, I know that my lord's mind can accept the heavens, the earth, the mountains and the sea!"

Everyone sighed with emotion, and then they all stepped forward and watched the letter.

The crowd was too crowded, and Yue Yang, who was closest to him, simply picked it up himself and recited it directly for everyone.

"Yue Ping, the middle guard army, led a thousand soldiers, attacked the arsenal first, and the arsenal division was promoted to the old department, opened the door and let it go, and then Fengyang Gong raised hundreds of dead soldiers of the Qin family, and the king of Jiaodong County led hundreds of dead soldiers, and gathered in the palace city. Shang Zhicheng, the former commander of the forbidden army, ordered the general to open the Donghua Gate with his prestige, but when the commander of the forbidden army ordered the fox sword to lead the troops to kill, the two sides fell into a bloody battle, and the king of Jiaodong County and Xia Gongzi did not retreat from the battle, so the righteous army did not collapse although it was blocked. ”

"Prime Minister Wan Wenbi Punishment Department, Jingzhao Mansion Governor Xing Shi Guding Jingzhao Mansion, Concubine De'an Patrol Battalion. However, the black ice platform black cavalry arrived, the momentum was amazing, fortunately Xia Gongzi had taken advantage of the night to order people to stumble in advance, delaying the black cavalry offensive, and then the patrol battalion arrived, and when the rebels were desperate, the patrol battalion defected. ”

"In the palace, Xia Gongzi arranged in advance to launch an uprising of the inner servants, captured the puppet emperor, the forbidden army collapsed, the righteous army entered the palace and the Beijing division was decided. The puppet emperor killed the king of the East Palace, and the prince was more than 100 nobles. The king of Jiaodong County was supported by hundreds of officials to succeed to the throne, and three days later, he was enthroned. ”

After everyone listened, hundreds of miles away, it seemed that they could hear the clamor that resounded inside and outside the palace at that moment, and the frantic heartbeat of all the people involved.

As they looked at each other, a smile slowly bloomed at the corners of their mouths, and then turned into a hearty laugh, echoing in the room for a long time like a triumphant song of victory.

They finally understood how far-sighted the old minister's arrangement was, and how shallow and ignorant they were compared to the old minister.

But this does not irritate them, because they won!

"Where's the text?"

After being overjoyed for a while, and digesting this great news for them, a person reacted and hurriedly asked.

Yue Yang Taishou also hurriedly looked for it, "I found it." ”

In the eyes of everyone, he cleared his throat, "Serve the world for the new emperor." ”

"The first emperor is in power. Fight with evil, eventually kill rebellion, the pain of the holy bow away from the poison, the sorrow of the fall, the heart of the four seas, the blood of the gods and gods, since the birth of the people, the first holy spirit of the disaster has not been heard, and it is knotted in the hearts of the people. Today, Dongfang Bai, the king of Jiaodong County, avenges his father and captures the thief in the palace, and is righteous in Beijing."

He read slowly, and before he knew it, the whole room fell silent.

"Today's thief has the culprit of the hero, and Shaoxue is ashamed. Ugly and unrelated, people and ghosts are back. It will be like pouring fireflies into the sea, crushing eggs in the mountains, and the success can be expected! ”

"Now the general trend has been achieved, and the prestige has been received. The original fire is burning, the foreign body is the same as the ash, fortunately for many blessings, and there is no regret. The book is announced, and the salt makes it known. ”

When the last word was finished, the room was still quiet enough to be heard.

Everyone has been immersed in this sharp and piercing and dignified text for a long time, they are all knowledgeable people, even if they are proud of being a scholar, they don't have the face to say that they can write better than this.

"Under the fame, there is no vanity, and Xia Gongzi is worthy of the name of a talented man!"

"The champion of Lianzhong Sanyuan, how can it be described by the word mere talent, it must be a rare talent in a hundred years!"

"This article is worth 100,000 soldiers!"

"Not to mention 100,000 soldiers, the overall situation of the world may be determined under this article!"

"Xiangyang is promising, the world is promising! Ha ha! ”

After some heartfelt approval and emotion, Yue Yang Taishou smiled and said, "Gentlemen, what are you waiting for, hurry up and get busy!" ”

Everyone nodded in unison and sat down with a beautiful expectation for the future.

And at this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded.

Immediately, two beautiful colors were reflected in this supposed solemn meeting room.

"Grandpa!"

Su Yanyan's voice paused, and he said eagerly: "Everyone, where is my grandfather?" ”

Yue Yang Taishou looked at Su Yanyan's anxious face, which was not as polite and polite as in the past, and smiled slightly, "Miss, Miss Qin, but you are here for the matter of Zhongjing?" ”

Su Yanyan and Qin Li beside him were stunned, "You already know?" ”

Yue Yang was too stubborn and smiled, "I have heard that the eldest lady has the style of an old minister, but now that I look at it, the old minister is still a good chess player!" ”

Someone on the side immediately chimed in: "Yes, when the old minister heard such good news, he was able to see no joy and anger, as if nothing happened, this kind of magnanimity and open-mindedness really amazed us." ”

"If you don't see it with your own eyes, if you don't believe that there is such a bearing in this world, this will definitely be the beauty of eternity!"

Listening to everyone's praise, Su Yanyan was slightly blessed, turned around and walked out.

Outside the meeting hall, Su Yanyan looked at Qin Li, "Sister, what do you think?" ”

Qin Li smiled slightly, "It's hard for me to say. ”

"There's something bad to say between you and me."

Qin Li chuckled: "If it was my grandfather, I am ten percent sure that he is pretending." ”

"Coincidentally, I'm 100% sure!" A hint of cunning also flashed in Su Yanyan's eyes, "Forget it!" Such a big person, save some face for him. ”

Qin Li smiled and said, "Sister accompany me to Yueyang Tower to have a look." ”

Su Yanyan turned his head to look at her in some surprise, not knowing how this topic came to this place all of a sudden.

Qin Li said softly: "I should be back to Beijing soon." ”

Su Yanyan was silent suddenly, turned to look at Sujiawu bathed in the morning sun, and couldn't tell whether it was joy or sentimentality in his heart for a while.

When the two figures, Yibai and Yiqing, under the escort of the guards, slowly walked towards Yueyang Tower, in the house at the core of the Su family, Su Lao Xianggong also slowly calmed down from the ecstasy.

He looked at the map copied in the room and said softly, "You did your thing, now it's our turn." ”

He opened the door and looked at the henchmen standing at the door, "Order, the front-line army, quickly assemble to Xiangyang, build siege equipment, and wait for the battle order." ”

A confidant took the order and left, and then he called the head of the Su family, "Go and arrange it, take Xia Jingyun's relatives over, and then let those who have plans to enter Beijing start to prepare." ”

The head of the Su family obviously also learned the news that made the entire Su family dock boil, and went overjoyed.

Xia Jingyun is sure to be the marquis in the future, although he has no ability in the eyes of others, but he first became the son of Xiangye, and then became Xiangye's cheap old man, tsk, life is impermanent!

Of course, Old Xianggong Su didn't know what thoughts were going on in his son's mind, he sat for a while, got up and asked people to push him to a small river in Sujiawu, and then quietly called another absolute henchman.

He sat down in his chair and hung the bait slowly, "Go and arrange it, you can act." ”

The man said respectfully, "Do you want to notify the other side?" ”

"Not necessarily."

"Yes!"

As the man left, Old Minister Su shook off the fishing rod in his hand and looked at the lake, "In order not to let the juniors specialize in beauty, this time we must not return empty-handed!" ”

Because it is a reaction to writing an essay, you must paste part of the original text to have a feeling. It has been cut and omitted as much as possible.

These duplicate words will be added in tomorrow's chapter with free word counts.
