Manual of the East Palace Mutual Performance Section 105
General Song's move was indeed too shameful, and even he almost couldn't bear it. If she relied on the tiger talisman on her body, or the prince's private seal, it was okay to be tough and go in directly.
But that would only make the relationship between His Highness and General Song more stiff. Qing Heng naturally didn't want to do this in his private heart, and he was going to persuade her to say a few words, but he didn't expect that she didn't have a seizure at all.
More than 500 people, even if they didn't bring many things, they checked one by one, and by the time they were confirmed to be in the city, two hours had passed.
The night was early and dark, and the wind was heavy in the north, and the night was even colder.
The hands and feet were cold from the cold, but he was not annoyed, and even thanked the leading general when he opened the city gate.
Chapter 93
◎God bless me Da Zhou, this battle will be won! ◎
The general did not dare to accept it, but turned sideways and invited them into the city.
It looks like it's going to snow.
He took two breaths on his hand, rubbed it warm, turned over his horse, and was led by their men into the inner city. At this hour, there were no pedestrians on the road, only guards patrolling.
The neat footsteps of the guards shook their armor, and the moonlight was hazy, shining cold to the bone.
She shuddered—maybe it was just too cold. But the utter unfamiliarity of the realm is still unsettling. In her two lives, except in Jiangnan or in Beijing, no matter whether life is good or not, she has never seen this kind of scene.
He couldn't help but touch the private seal hidden close to him—like touching his hand thousands of miles away.
The moment you hold the private seal, you can forget your fear for a while.
Seeing that she was indeed very cold, Thinking of His Highness's instructions, Qing Heng drove forward, "Miss Song, it's late at night, should you go and settle down first or ......?"
Zhichi shook his head and said straightly: "Go see General Song." Then he glanced back at the more than 500 guards who followed him, "Now that you have entered the city, let's settle them first."
Since Song Xuan instructed them to stop them at the city gate, he must still be awake at this hour. If she doesn't go to see her, it won't be in courtesy.
Qing Heng naturally didn't really pay much attention to her, and asking questions was just a routine, and he didn't stop him when he heard the words, so he went to negotiate with the person who led the way.
The man threw his fist at her and led her to a house.
The house is small and secluded, but it is heavily garrisoned in front and back. Rank Chi glanced at it, this should be Song Xuan's residence in Xingguang City.
Only Qing Heng was left by her side, and in order to show her respect, she dismounted from a distance and walked over step by step - although she now nominally represents the crown prince, she came to transfer troops to ask General Song. What's more, General Song has been stationed in northern Xinjiang for many years and has made countless achievements, even if Ning Xun came in person, he will be more respectful.
As soon as he approached, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
The guards were divided into two sides, and one person stepped out of it, about forty, who was in the prime of life, but his sideburns were white because of the wind and frost in the north. His eyes are sharp, and although he is not armoured, he can also see the evil spirit of being on the battlefield for a long time.
Zhichi took a shallow breath, and before the person who came to speak, he blessed his body: "The younger generation is ordered by the prince to come to Xingguangcheng to visit the general." ”
Song Xuan was wearing a military general's uniform, the regulations were not chaotic at all, and his laughter was hearty, as if he was not the one who deliberately made things difficult: "The girl has tormented the old minister." In the letter from the prince, he specially instructed that seeing you is like seeing the prince. Today is the late arrival of the minister, this man is old, forgetful, and remembers the wrong day. ”
Qing Heng, who was waiting on the side, jumped when he heard this.
The words "the minister came late", when His Royal Highness and General Song were in Yunfeng to fight the enemy, he followed His Highness to listen to it a lot. Several times His Highness was in danger, it was all because His Highness himself fought a bloody path, and General Song was late and did not hesitate to confess a crime.
Ning Xun dared to say that seeing her was like seeing the prince, she didn't dare to really suffer like this.
The title pool saluted again, neither humble nor arrogant: "The general's words are serious, the younger generation is just a people's daughter, thanks to the trust of His Royal Highness, he is entrusted with a heavy responsibility, how can he afford it?" ”
Song Xuan accepted her salute, and looked at her with something more in his eyes, but he only smiled and said nothing.
Zhichi raised her eyes to meet his gaze, and did not retreat or avoid - she had already mentioned that she had a "heavy responsibility" on her body, and since General Song didn't ask, she could only take the initiative to mention it herself: "The junior is ...... this time"
Song Xuan inadvertently interrupted her, "It's not too early, there will be martial arts exercises in the camp early tomorrow morning." ”
He called the guards to come close and "take Miss Song to the residence to settle down." After speaking, he looked at the rank pool: "Since you have arrived in Xingguang, you will naturally be safe and sound, and you can rest in peace." As for the rest, the prince shouldn't be in a hurry tonight, right? ”
When he said this, he didn't say anything for a while, so he was blessed and followed the person to the residence first.
Unexpectedly, Song Xuan's martial arts performance took five days.
In the past five days, she couldn't find out where General Song was, let alone discuss the transfer of troops.
It's not that I didn't ask the shadow guard to look for someone, but I can't find it or can't find it—after all, she's the only one who is in a hurry.
Although he also wanted to transfer troops to Yunfeng to support His Highness in his heart, His Highness had already instructed that Qing Heng could only turn a blind eye to Song Xuan's shirk.
On the sixth day, he went to Song Xuan's residence to wait.
It snowed heavily yesterday, and although it has stopped now, it is cold and snowy outside, and it is not comfortable to wait for a long time.
After all, she was hand-picked by the prince, and through the letter, after the bright side, if she was really here, what happened in front of everyone, General Song must be difficult to explain.
Song Xuan is not there at the moment, but his guards here are not blind, and someone will always send him a message.
She didn't want to make such a decision, but she was afraid that if it dragged on for too long, Ning Xun would change.
Yunfeng City.
30,000 Khitan elite soldiers are close to the city, looking at this posture, if it is not for the new king who can't gather the old department of the third prince in such a short period of time, the number of people besieging the city is afraid to be doubled.
Before putting on the armor, Ning Xun stroked the sachet that he had been wearing close to his body - the white crane pattern embroidered on the bottom, although the workmanship could be seen with care, the stitches were sparse and dense, and it could be seen at a glance that the person who made this sachet was indeed not a good woman.
It was a New Year's gift given to him by the Title Pool on Chinese New Year's Eve last year.
Few people know that His Royal Highness the Prince, who doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, never leaves the sachet that he keeps is a paper talisman.
Ning Xun clenched the sachet and the talisman inside in his palm, paused for a few breaths, and then let go of his hand and put on light armor.
The talisman was still begged for by her in the autumn of the year - I heard that it should be asked for once a year, but this autumn is too complicated, and she didn't care about it.
The news that she went to Xingguang safely had already come back, but I don't know what she was doing these days.
Ning Xun raised his hand to tie his pocket, his mind suddenly retracted, and he strode out, raising his eyes to look at the beacon fire in the distance.
Night is approaching, and the remnants of the burning clouds in the sky have wiped out the first blood.
The soldiers were already lined up, and there was no end in sight. Ning Xun glanced around, "You have also heard of Lone's temperament, you fight well, kill a lot, and pay homage to the marquis." ”
The prince has also been in northern Xinjiang for a long time, and he has always been rewarded for meritorious service, and the soldiers under him are not thin, and people with lofty ideals can achieve some meritorious deeds - this is almost known to everyone.
"But if you take a step back, the land under your feet, the city guarded by your colleagues with flesh and blood, and the women, children, old and young behind you, will all be reduced to the iron cavalry of the Hu people!"
At this point, Ning Xun drew his sword out of the sheath, and the long sword roared loudly, pointing directly at Hu Qi, "The land of the family and the country, how can the barbarians be trampled on!" God bless me Da Zhou, this battle will be won! ”
Suddenly, the mountain shouted: "God bless the Great Zhou, this battle will be won!" ”
The pond waited until nightfall to see the shadow of General Song.
It's not that no one has persuaded her, but she herself refuses to leave, and others don't dare to do anything to her.
Although she was clothed in a big hat, but the cold of the north was like a knife, she had not yet fully adapted to it, and stood outside for two hours, although her cheeks were frozen red, but her lips were pale.
The guards were frightened and went to give it to Song Xuan non-stop.
When the sky darkened, the cold became faster, and even the hot breath she exhaled quickly condensed on her eyelashes, embellished into fine Xiaoice beads.
When Song Xuan came back, he saw her standing in front of the door as if she was frozen, looking at the posture, if he didn't come back, she could freeze into an ice sculpture here.
He shook his head in his heart, what a girl, stubborn as a donkey. I don't know what the surnamed Ning used to deceive people so that they didn't even want their lives.
Seeing Song Xuan coming, his eyes lit up, and he saluted: "General Song." ”
Song Xuan glanced at her and blocked the words she was about to exit in time, "Let's talk about it first." ”
The house lit a lamp and burned three pots of charcoal.
After freezing for too long, the pond consciously moved away from the charcoal basin and slowly rubbed his hands to warm up.
Except for the guards guarding the door, there was no one else in the house, and his own place was not afraid of the wall having ears, Song Xuan said bluntly: "You are here to transfer troops, yes or no?" ”
Not much surprise, he was able to guess the intention of his trip, nodded generously and admitted: "Yes." ”
Song Xuan lit another lamp, "Take a break from this thought as soon as possible." ”
The hand of the chichi was clenched tightly, and it was loosened again - it was true that she had a tiger talisman in her hand, but the Song family army had only obeyed Song Xuan's orders for so many years, and relying on the tiger talisman alone, even if she forcibly transferred people, she was afraid that she would not move along the way.
"The difficulties of Yunfeng City General Song must know better than me, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a difficult battle, and he ......is a little careless" Title Chi paused, "General Song, I know that there is some relationship between the prince and the general, but ......"
Song Xuan looked at her and couldn't help but be a little surprised-knowing that this girl was not light in the prince's place, but he didn't expect that the prince would even tell her the past that he didn't want others to mention.
He laughed and interrupted: "Since you know the grievances between me and the crown prince, you shouldn't be delusional. To put it mildly, there are no eyes on the battlefield, even if there is really something, it is fate. ”
- When he was still a deputy general in the army, because of the matter of the former empress, General Qi Guang was ordered by the emperor to meet the enemy, but when he was killed in a tragic battle by the enemy on his back due to the wrong edict, others also said that it was fate.
Zhichi frowned, and couldn't hold back for a while: "But in the end, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just a junior, how much does it have to do with him back then?" ”
"If it is really as the general said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ......" His words were too unlucky, she didn't want to say it, so she simply said directly: "There are only a few princes in charge of the court." The mother family of the Second Highness is the Zhenguo Mansion, and if he gains power, the military power will not fall into the hands of foreign surnames. ”
"And the Fourth Highness is merciful, even to the Hu people has always been lenient, the Lord and the non-war, the general should have heard of it."
"Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows how to make good use of people, governs the army strictly, and rewards the soldiers for their merits, and has never deliberately suppressed the generals."
She looked directly at Song Xuan, and since she had already spoken, she simply said in one breath: "The general is a man of temperament, but even if he doesn't plan for himself, he should plan for the tens of thousands of soldiers who were born and died in the frontier for the Great Zhou." ”
The author has something to say:
