Chapter 663, Infinite Spring

The people who got up early in the morning saw a procession of thousands of men and horses clustered around many large carriages, but they didn't think anything special, they just thought it was a routine movement of the army. Such transfers occur from time to time not only in Bianliang, but also in all parts of the country, so the people do not feel anything unusual.

The team left Bianliang City and headed eastward, because there were still two months left on the date of the meeting with the Empress Dowager of Liao, and there was plenty of time, so Yang Peng decided to go east first, and after arriving in Shandong, he turned around and went to Yanjing. At this time, winter goes to spring, the ice disintegrates, thousands of trees spit green, and the originally silent birdsong echoes in the mountains and forests; The mountain stream, which had previously been silent due to the freezing of the earth, has also been revitalized, flowing through the valley with a clear and pleasant sound.

Yang Rui and these children were very excited, probing out of the carriage, pointing and chirping. The mothers were on hand to explain to them all sorts of things that seemed new to them.

Not long after the team left Bianliang, a messenger rushed up and delivered a letter to Yang Peng.

Yang Peng rode on a horse, opened the envelope, took out the stationery, and unfolded it. It turned out to be the news about Xiliao forwarded by the cabinet. Not long ago, the Western Liao suddenly invaded Khorezm with 100,000 elite soldiers, according to the news from the fine work and merchants, Khorezm because it was attacking the Seljuk Empire, and was caught off guard, so the Liao army was like a broken bamboo into a no-man's land, the eastern cities fell one after another, many lords who shouldered the responsibility of defending the land surrendered one after another, the entire eastern region of Khorezm was in chaos, the situation was very favorable to the Liao army, and it was very unfavorable to Khorezm.

After reading the report, Yang Peng thought to himself: 'Khorezm must have seen that the situation of the Seljuk Empire was in danger under the onslaught of the Crusaders, so he wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot; He also saw that Western Liao was fighting a fierce battle with our army, and expected that there would be nothing to do in the east in a short time, so he calmly attacked the Seljuk Empire. In the case of the defeat in the eastern battlefield, he immediately discovered the fighters in the western battlefield, so he immediately reached a peace agreement with our army and mobilized troops and horses to conquer Khorezm! This is to have a mental calculation or not, Khorezm did not expect that Western Liao would mobilize a main force so quickly, so there was not much force deployed on the eastern border! If Khorezm doesn't deal with it properly, I'm afraid there will be a big problem! ’

Yelu Hanyu rode to Yang Peng's side and asked, "Big brother, is there anything big?" ”

Yang Peng handed her the letter. Yelu Hanyu took the letter, read it, smiled, and sighed: "Yelu Longqing is really not simple!" I didn't even realize that he was actually a hero! ”

Yang Peng said: "When Xiaoxiong doesn't have a chance, he won't expose himself. However, once the opportunity came, they were like a unicorn that had encountered a storm, and instantly turned into dragons! Seeing Yelu Hanyu looking at himself with a smile, he asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" Yelu Hanyu smiled: "Big brother, this seems to be talking about yourself!" Yang Peng snorted, and then laughed. The other women saw Yang Peng and Yelu Hanyu laughing from a distance, and they were all very curious.

Yang Peng restrained his smile and looked at Yelu Hanyu with a solemn expression. Yelu Hanyu was a little surprised. Yang Peng said: "Mei'er, that Yelu Hanyu ......" Yelu Hanyu guessed what Yang Peng wanted to say, and said with a smile: "The Western Liao built by Yelu Longqing actually has nothing to do with Da Liao!" Besides, even if it's the inheritance of Da Liao, you don't need to have any scruples, big brother! I, as well as the thousands of Khitan people, have been wholeheartedly loyal to Yanyun, and they all wholeheartedly consider themselves to be a part of Yanyun! No matter what decision the eldest brother makes, we Khitans will definitely fully support it! Then he smiled, put his palm into Yang Peng's big hand, and said softly: "What's more, we all think that in the big family of Yanyun, the Khitan people can get real happiness!" ”

Yang Peng felt very relieved and looked back at Yelu Hanyu with a smile.

Yang Tong, who was sitting in the carriage behind, saw this scene, was jealous, and said angrily: "That fox spirit is seducing her husband again!" ”

The son Yang Yinglong, who was sitting next to him, said innocently: "Mother, Aunt Yelu is also my father's wife, why is she a fox spirit?" Yang Tong turned around and said angrily: "Silly boy! If she hadn't been a vixen to seduce your father, how could she have become your father's wife! Yang Yinglong was confused, blinked his big clear eyes and said: "Before my mother became my father's wife, I wasn't my father's wife!" According to my mother's meaning, isn't my mother also a vixen before, and she became my father's wife because she seduced my father? The maid sitting next to her couldn't help but laugh, and immediately realized that she really shouldn't laugh, so she quickly covered her mouth. Seeing Niangniang's eyes glaring, she couldn't help but feel very uneasy.

Yang Tong turned his head, poked his son's forehead with his finger, and said angrily: "Silly boy, do you say that?" Seeing his son's innocent eyes, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he only felt that he really shouldn't say such things in front of his children, that would teach bad children. As soon as he thought of this, he hurriedly said: "Long'er, my mother is telling a joke!" Don't take it seriously! Yang Yinglong suddenly realized, nodded his head and smiled: "It turns out that my mother is telling a joke!" No wonder Long'er thinks it's unreasonable for her mother to say it well! Yang Tong looked at his son's innocent appearance and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

That night, the team camped in the wilderness. Bonfires were lit, Yang Peng and his wives sat together and chatted, and the children were happy on the grass by the stream under the care of the nurse and the palace maid, so happy; The Hidden Killer Guards were scattered around to guard the perimeter, while the Flying Phoenix Female Guards were preparing the food for the evening, and the smoke rose in the mountains and forests, and the fragrant smell of the food was mouth-watering.

A Feifeng female guard walked in front of Chen Xiao and the others, hugged her fists and said, "Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, the food is ready. ”

Yang Peng and the others raised their eyes to look for the children, only to see the children playing happily on the grass. Several mothers shouted their children's names and asked them to come back for dinner. Several children came back under the leadership of the nurse and the palace maid, and they all looked excited, much more energetic than when they were in Bianliang. A few children plunged into their mother's arms and chattered non-stop! Rui'er plunged into her father's arms, shaking her little ass and spoiling! Chai Yonghui next to him said with some jealousy: "Rui'er likes her father the most, and she always hangs her mother aside!" ”

Yang Peng smiled. Rui'er immediately left her father's arms, got into her mother's arms, and said coquettishly: "Rui'er also likes her mother the most!" Chai Yonghui smiled and said angrily: "Little slippery head!" ”

Yang Peng clapped his hands and stood up, and said to everyone: "Okay, it's time to eat." Everyone stood up, followed Yang Peng to a bonfire, and sat down around it. Naren and the other female guards were about to prepare plates of fragrant barbecue meat and distribute them to individuals, and then delivered water and fruits to individuals.

Everyone chatted and ate and drank at the same time. Naren and other female guards of the Khitan tribe danced their own dance around the bonfire, and everyone couldn't help but clap their hands for fun, and the atmosphere was very warm.

"Huh? What is that? Yang Rui, who was sitting next to her mother, suddenly pointed to the dark place behind her. Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a fluffy thing lying on its stomach not far away, and they couldn't help but be surprised. Naren and the other female guards immediately drew their swords and ran up. A moment later, Naren came back with a furball. Naren smiled, "It's a little bear, maybe it smelled the smell of food." When the children saw the fluffy, chubby, cute and bubbling bear in Naren's hand, their eyes were already bright, and they looked like children in modern society had seen their favorite toys.

Several children screamed for joy and ran to Naren, outstretched their hands and shouted, "Give me a hug!" Give me a hug! "This makes Naren embarrassed, they are all princes and princesses, who should I hand them over. As soon as he had an idea, he said, "This is still a bit dangerous." Then he walked to Yang Peng's side with the bear in his arms and handed the bear to Yang Peng, as for which child His Majesty handed over the bear to, it was not her business.

Yang Peng saw that Xiao Xiong's eyes were staring at the steaming barbecue, and a pair of small paws stretched out to the barbecue, and a low cry came out of his mouth. Apparently he was hungry. Yang Peng put the little bear in front of him, took the plate of barbecue that he had eaten, and put it in front of it, the little bear cheered, sat on the grass, and gobbled up the barbecue with his two paws, eating very cute.

Several children gathered around, watching the bear eat with big eyes, looking like they liked it very much. Yang Rui suddenly stood up, ran to his food plate, picked up his food plate with both hands and ran back, and put it in front of Xiao Xiong, and said longingly: "Little bear is good!" I've got you something to eat! Seeing this, the other children hurriedly brought their own food for the bear to eat. However, the little bear was very small, and naturally he didn't eat a lot, and Yang Peng couldn't finish the rest of the barbecue, so he was full, so he didn't touch the food brought by the children. When the children saw this, they were very disappointed.

The little bear moved his chubby body to Yang Peng's feet, arched his head over Yang Peng's calves, and let out a whining sound in his mouth, looking very intimate. Ya Yin Guanyin smiled: "It treats the eldest brother as a mother!" The crowd laughed. Yang Peng smiled: "No! Ya Kannon said, "Animals are like this, whoever nurses them, they will recognize them as their mother." ”

Yang Peng smiled: "This little guy's mother must be nearby, it just likes me because it eats my things." ”

Ya Yu Guanyin nodded and said, "There is also this possibility." Then he frowned and said, "If the big bear is nearby, it won't be safe at night!" He turned his head to Naren and said, "Go and tell Wang Kai to carefully search the surrounding mountains and forests." If you spot a bear, don't be alarmed and come back to report it immediately. Naren answered and ran down. A moment later, I saw that the hidden killers on the periphery took action.

Yang Rui and the children squatted on the ground to tease the bear, and the bear looked very scared, clutching Yang Peng's trouser legs tightly. The children only thought that the bear looked even cuter, and wanted to hug it, but they didn't dare to.

Soon after, Wang Kai came back and reported: "Your Majesty, the surroundings have been searched, and no trace of any wild beast has been found. Not even a trace. ”

Yang Peng looked at Ya Yu Guanyin. Ye Yu Guanyin glanced at the little bear holding Yang Peng's trouser legs, and said, "The mother of this little bear may be dead, otherwise the mother bear will never be nearby!" "A couple of women who already had children thought the bear was so pitiful!

Yang Peng glanced down at the bear. Yang Rui tugged on Yang Peng's sleeve and begged: "Dad, this little bear is so pitiful!" Let's adopt it! The other children also looked pleading. Yang Peng originally had this meaning, and said with a smile: "Okay, just adopt it!" The children cheered. Xiao Xiong hugged Yang Peng's calf and looked at the cheering Yang Rui with an innocent face.

In the following days, the group marched slowly all the way, enjoying the spring along the way, and the children had already played with the bears, and the joyful laughter was full of joy.

In the afternoon of this day, the procession passed through a village and town in the Hebei region, where Yang Pengji had been here when the Liao army invaded southward, and it was full of devastation, houses were destroyed, rice fields were barren, and the wilderness was full of dead people's corpses, and vultures were hovering in the sky. But now, the scene is completely different, with delicate wooden houses eyeshadow between the mountains and rivers, small bridges and flowing water, farmland contiguous fields, pastoral songs echoing melodiously in the fields, and everyone's face is filled with happy smiles. In the distance, a group of naughty children were not afraid of the cold in the stream, giggling laughter and the sound of the murmuring water of the stream. In fact, along the way, the places passed through were such peaceful and beautiful scenes. In today's Central Plains, it is hard to imagine that it is still a bloody and chaotic killing ground for a few years! The changes in the past few years can be described as vicissitudes of life, which makes people feel emotional!

Yang Peng and his entourage enjoyed the scenery all the way until late February, and did not arrive in Yanjing until late February. After arriving in Yanjing, settle down in the palace. The so-called palace is the palace of the king of Yan before, and it was the palace of the king of the southern courtyard of the Liao Kingdom at the earliest.

Yang Peng met with Yang Jiumei, the governor of Yanyun's sixteen states and the chief of the march, in the study. Yang Jiumei bowed: "Minister, please see Your Majesty!" ”

Yang Peng smiled: "Between the two of us, why do we need so many false courtesies!" ”

Yang Jiumei straightened her waist and looked at Yang Peng, her beautiful eyes flashed with a strange look, and her red lips lightly opened: "Your Majesty, I received news from the Liao State a few days ago that the Empress Dowager Wang Jun of the Liao State has led 30,000 escorts to the vicinity of the Gubei Pavilion. Yang Peng nodded, remembering what Han Derang had said to him before, and couldn't help but be very curious about the purpose of Wang Jun's trip.

Yang Jiumei said: "Your Majesty, this matter is a little strange. ”

Yang Peng nodded and motioned for her to continue. Yang Jiumei continued: "The Empress Dowager of the Liao Kingdom really has no reason to take the initiative to meet with Your Majesty! And aren't they even worried about His Majesty's sudden attack when they meet? The Empress Dowager of the Liao Kingdom is just a delicate woman, and Your Majesty, everyone in the world knows that she is a brave and unparalleled hero who shocks the world! If Your Majesty suddenly attacks, then the Empress Dowager of Liao is just a lamb under the claws of a tiger and wolf, and there is no room for resistance! ”

Yang Peng teased: "Ninth sister, is it true that in your eyes, I am such a rotten man who bullies women?" ”

Yang Jiumei blushed and said angrily: "I'm just talking about things, shouldn't the people of Liao worry about this?" ”

Yang Peng stood up, walked in front of Yang Jiumei, looked at her and thought, "You mean, what conspiracy might the Liao people have?" ”

Yang Jiumei frowned and said, "I do have such worries, but the strange thing is that our scouts and meticulous work have not found any suspicious signs!" The people of Liao don't seem to be playing conspiracy! But ......"

Yang Peng held Yang Jiumei's slender hand. Yang Jiumei was relieved, and the following words could not be spoken, she raised her head and looked at Yang Peng, her beautiful eyes were rippling with sea-like affection and strong resentment, such a look, as if containing a thousand words, Yang Peng already understood her thoughts. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel tender, and couldn't help but take her into his arms.

Yang Jiumei couldn't help but get emotional, subconsciously stretched out her hands to wrap her arms around Yang Peng's tiger waist, and murmured, "I miss you so much!" ”

Yang Peng's heart turned into countless soft silks, entwined with thousands of entanglements.

Yang Jiumei's heart suddenly sank, and she quickly pushed Yang Peng away. Seeing Yang Peng looking at himself with a puzzled expression, he hung his head and said with a red face: "It's not good to let them see it!" ”

Yang Peng smiled and said, "I'll look for you at night." Yang Jiumei's heart fluttered and she did not object. Thinking of the right thing, he hurriedly put his thoughts behind him for the time being, glanced at Yang Peng, and said, "I'm really worried about meeting Wang Jun!" Don't be careless! ”

Yang Peng smiled: "It's going to be fine." We are very well prepared, even if the Liao people have any conspiracy, they are just lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot! Yang Jiumei nodded, but she was still relieved. Remembering some information he received not long ago, he said: "I sent a red report from Bianliang, about the Heyue Li Dynasty in the west, and I recently received a report from the Wa Kingdom. ”

Yang Peng said: "You can tell me about these things in the evening." Yang Jiumei blushed and said angrily: "Do you still have the heart to listen at night?" Yang Peng smiled, picked up Yang Jiumei's chin with his right index finger, and said with a smile: "I'm not a faint gentleman, while entertaining, I won't forget to do business!" ”

Yang Jiumei said angrily: "Are you with me just for entertainment?" ”

Yang Peng said: "It's for the blending of feelings between the two of us!" In order for our feelings to be able to be sublimated in this kind of activity! ”

Yang Jiumei chuckled and glanced at Yang Peng, "Nonsense!" ”

Yang Peng hugged Yang Jiumei and couldn't help but say, "Ninth sister, I often miss you these days!" Yang Jiumei sighed, "I often miss you too!" Especially after a busy day! Yang Peng said excitedly: "Ninth sister, let's not torture each other!" Yang Jiumei frowned and shook her head, "No! He glanced up at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "Didn't I say it?" I'm a very selfish person and don't want to share my man with other women! Just let me be your lover, and then, whenever we're together, you'll be completely mine! Yang Peng smiled bitterly: "I really don't understand your thoughts!" Yang Jiumei smiled.

Gently pushed Yang Peng's chest and said, "I'm going to see the eldest sister." Yang Peng suddenly kissed Yang Jiumei's red lips, Yang Jiumei's heart trembled, and she couldn't help but kiss back frantically. Yang Jiumei used all her willpower to restrain her desires and gently pushed Yang Peng away. The two looked at each other, their faces so close that they could even feel each other's breathing clearly. Yang Jiumei said angrily: "Don't make trouble! Let me go! Yang Peng let go of Yang Jiumei.

Yang Jiumei walked out of the study, and her back was very graceful and moving. Yang Jiumei suddenly stopped, looked back and smiled, and said, "I'll wait for you at night!" Don't you want to come! Yang Peng's heart fluttered, and when he came back to his senses, the Yiren had disappeared without a trace.

Yang Peng couldn't help but sigh, thinking back to the many bewitching people around him, each with its own beauty, but they all had a deep affection for themselves. Yang Peng couldn't help but worry that his luck was too good, would God be disgusting to him in the future? Shaking his head, he threw these jumbled thoughts behind him. Thinking that he hadn't seen the appearance of Yanjing City for a long time, he called the guards, gave some orders, and then left the palace.

Yang Peng wandered around the streets and found that Yanjing City was very quiet, which formed a sharp contrast with the hustle and bustle of Bianliang. Only occasionally when merchants from the south and north pass by, there will be a bustle. Whether it is a merchant from the north to the south, or a merchant from the south to the north, they will not stay too much in Yanjing City, because their final destination is not Yanjing. The final destination of the merchants from the north was Bianliang, while the final destination of the merchants from the south and the north was Shangjing of the Liao State. Yanjing is no longer the center of Yanyun, but it has become a very comfortable place. When people are in it, they will subconsciously give birth to a feeling of laziness. The city is so peaceful and quiet under the sun.

"Big brother!" A call of surprise came from behind Yang Peng.

Yang Peng stopped and followed the sound, only to see a beautiful woman dressed in white mink fleece running with joy on her face, it turned out to be Zhao Xiangxiang, who she hadn't seen for a long time! Yang Peng couldn't help but be very happy.

Zhao Xiangxiang led her personal maid Ju'er to Yang Peng, and said excitedly: "I didn't expect to meet my eldest brother here!" ”

Yang Peng smiled: "I didn't expect to meet our talented girl here!" Zhao Xiangxiang's cheeks flushed. Yang Peng looked around and saw that there was a restaurant not far away, and there was also a sign of Fan Lou, which was a branch of Fan Lou and also belonged to the government industry, so he pointed to the Fan Lou and said: "Let's go and sit over there!" Zhao Xiangxiang nodded. The crowd then walked towards Fan Lou. The guards who were responsible for protecting Yang Peng on the periphery also followed.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
