A Thousand Mountains Qingdai Section 151
"I have hurt the most undeserved people because of the hatred in my heart. If parents know about it, they don't want to see it. Seungpyeong," he turned to his old friends on earth again.
"I have no brother or brother, although I have a different temperament from you, I like you to be a man, so I have always treated you as a younger brother in my heart. Hatred can never be let go, but have those defenseless ordinary people hurt you, use hatred as an excuse to release the evil in your heart, you shouldn't do this. β
"I'll give you one last chance, will you retreat or not?"
Cheng Ping slowly opened his eyes, tilted his face, and looked at him.
"I can't get the woman I like in my heart; The woman who likes me, I have failed her, and it is impossible to make up for it; My only friend became an enemy. The only pleasure left in my life is to fight and conquer the enemy, and now you don't even allow me to do that......"
He struggled to lift the broken arm and pointed to his neck, "Come here, just give me a good time." β
Pei Xiaoyuan looked at him for a moment, and a fierce look flashed in his bloodshot and red eyes, he picked up the dagger in the snow, and slashed at his throat with a wave of his arm.
"Pei Langjun spares his life!" Shi Xuan pounced desperately, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
"Lang Jun!"
At this moment, He Jin, who was ordered by him to find Cui Daoji tonight, rushed over on horseback from a distance and shouted loudly.
"Lang Jun, it's not good! How could Master Lu be here! She's going to set fire to the granary! β
As soon as He Jin's words fell, almost at the same moment, in another direction, the person who had been sent to find Cui Daoji also galloped on horseback.
"Great Khan! Oh no! Choi Youxiang ran away! A woman who appeared out of nowhere climbed the arrow tower and wanted to burn the grain depot! β
Pei Xiaoyuan was taken aback and rose from the snow. Chengping also opened his eyes suddenly, and after being stunned for a moment, he turned over from the ground and got up, got on a horse with the help of Shi Xuan, and galloped away in the direction of Shucheng.
When the group arrived in front of the grain depot in the city, they only smelled a pungent smell in their noses, and the ground was drenched, and fire oil was everywhere. On an arrow tower in front of the grain depot, at this moment, there is a young girl dressed as a teenager but with a disheveled head, holding a fire staff in her hand, and the roaring fire reflects her pale and beautiful face, which is Lu Wenjun, the county lord of Danyang.
There was no enemy army to confront here, the guards in various parts of the city were lax, the officials who guarded the warehouse went to drink and sleep, and the remaining two soldiers were mixed with the wine and medicine by Lu Wenjun with her own drug, obtained the key to open the door, poured fire oil on the inside and outside of the warehouse door, and then climbed up to a nearby arrow tower used for lookout.
"County Lord!" Pei Xiaoyuan shouted at her from afar.
"Come down! Dangerous! β
"Brother-in-law, I bother you to see my princess and sister next time, and accompany her for me, I will worry her again! And my aunt, I left a book for her. You can help me with another word, so that she really don't have to be sad, I am very happy today, really! She smiled.
"Wenjun!" Chengping rode up and called out to her.
"What are you going to do? Come down! β
Lu Wenjun saw him from a distance, and his smile became sweeter and sweeter.
"You're here? How did you treat me that night in Qingyue Tower? And the time you begged me, you said it yourself, you have wandered enough, and you want someone who restricts you all your life. I believe you and do something wrong. The reason why I didn't kill you last time was because I hadn't seen you become a traitor, and I still didn't give up after all. This time you have truly betrayed what you have said to me. I can't stop it, and I don't have the opportunity or ability to kill you, but I can't swallow this-"
Soldiers nearby had already heard the news and had drawn their bows to shoot her from above.
"Stop! Stop it! β
Cheng Ping's eyes were torn and he shouted, "Who hurt her!" I'll kill him first! β
Shi Xuan rushed forward and whipped away the man who wanted to shoot the arrow.
"Wenjun, come down! You're obedientβ"
"Ashina, aren't you going to lend people grain and grass so that they can come and beat us?"
Lu Wenjun turned a deaf ear.
"You're good at it!"
Without the slightest hesitation, she threw the torch in her hand towards the door of the warehouse, and then, with a leap of her body, jumped off the arrow tower, and fell straight from the air like a bird with broken wings.
At this time, whether it is Chengping or Pei Xiaoyuan, there are still a few zhang away from the arrow tower.
Pei Xiaoyuan watched her fall, and there was nothing he could do.
Cheng Ping was even more frightened, and in a heart-rending shout of "Wen Jun", regardless of the injuries of his arms, he stood up from the horse and flew forward, but in vain, he fell to the ground.
Just as the body was about to fall to the ground, a figure suddenly rushed out of a shadow under the arrow tower, and the man desperately stretched out his arm to pick up Lu Wenjun.
Even though Lu Wenjun is petite, he jumped from a height of ten zhang, and the impact can be imagined.
With a bang, she still fell to the ground, and the man was also pressed under her, and let out an earth-shattering scream: "My legs! β
Almost at the same time, another cavalry figure galloped out from under the arrow tower, chasing after the torch that Lu Wenjun had just thrown, but the torch fell too fast, even if he was already chasing with all his strength, the palm that reached out was still half an arm's length away.
Seeing that the rod of fire was about to fall to the ground, and a fire stretched out, and was about to burn the years of accumulation in the granary, the man suddenly shook the whip in his hand, snapped on the ground, and rolled the torch up, and lifted the torch high, and held it firmly in his hand.
The person who put out the fire is Yu Wenzhi. He caught the torch, immediately turned the horse's head, nodded at Pei Xiaoyuan, and then quickly left the granary with the torch, far away.
And the person who was pressed down below was Cui Daosi.
All of this happened in a few moments.
Pei Xiaoyuan rushed to the bottom of the arrow tower, and saw that his uncle's legs were pressed under Lu Wenjun's body, he was so painful that he didn't even have the strength to scream, his face was like gold paper, he grabbed Pei Xiaoyuan's arm, and said weakly: "Look at the county lord!" β
Lu Wenjun's eyes were closed, and the person was lying on the ground, motionless. Pei Xiaoyuan probed her snort, but fortunately there was still a little bit of heat, and she should have passed out.
He immediately shouted for someone to tear down a door panel, picked up Lu Wenjun himself, carefully put her up, and then ordered someone to carry her away with his uncle for medical treatment.
"Wenjun!" Cheng Ping was almost unable to stand at this time, but he still gritted his teeth, trembling and waiting to chase, and a sword scabbard suddenly reached out and blocked in front of him.
"She doesn't want to see you anymore! Hugh is going to be annoying! β
Yu Wenzhi raised his eyebrows, said a word, and then called his entourage and left with Pei Xiaoyuan and his party in front.
"That's right!" Yu Wenzhi rode a few steps, and suddenly turned back.
"Ashina, listen up again, I'm saying this for the princess. Even if Pei Erlangjun dies in this battle, I will also die in battle, even if the court loses, it will only be temporary, princess, she will not give up, and she will not allow you to trample on her people! β
After he finished speaking, he left Chengping and rode away.
More than a month later, in the early spring afternoon of Chang'an, although the wind was still a little cold, in the air of the imperial garden, it seemed that the breath of the young buds and leaves of the weeping willow could be faintly smelled.
Su Yu clutched the battle report he had just received in his hand, and rushed quickly, almost rushing to the main hall of Ziyun Palace.
The window is ajar, and the bright afternoon spring sun is shining in from behind the window, shining on a brocade couch set by the window.
She saw the emperor sitting on the couch, holding her little girl, and gently shaking a rattle.
Xiao Jiao'er was four or five months old, and I don't know when she suddenly became interested in grabbing the emperor's beard. At this moment, he giggled, stretched out a small meat hand, and grabbed the emperor's beard, and the strength was not small.
"Oops! That's not a good idea! β
Over the past year, the emperor's beard has become increasingly thin, and every time he combs his hair, the old palace eunuch has to be cautious. Seeing this, he went up with a smile and softly coaxed the doll to let go.
"Don't make noise, let him catch him if he likes it, don't scare my little good grandson!" The Emperor immediately stopped.
Her little girl was probably the only person in the world who could do that to her irascible Aye.
Su Yu stared at this scene, and couldn't help but stop next to the mallet door, holding her breath, lest she be disturbed.
The emperor teased the little doll for a moment, and suddenly, slowly, asked, "Is there any news?" β
"Yes. In the decisive battle of Guangming City, I won a great victory for the heroic division. β
"In addition, Ashina retreated before the war." She said again.
The emperor gently placed the little baby on the couch, let him grasp his fingers, and kept dancing his little hands and kicking his little feet. His expression didn't look very joyful.
"What about that kid from the Pei family? Fighting and killing all day long, except for the missing fingers, nothing else, right? The Emperor closed his eyes for a moment, then asked.
"Probably not less!" Rain should be.
"Did you tell him that you gave birth to a little Jiao'er?" The emperor asked again, and his palm lovingly stroked the little baby's fleshy little face.
"No, I didn't." She should.
The emperor's hand paused slightly.
"I only discuss court affairs with him, and I have no selfish correspondence."
Her eyes looked out the window at the clear sky, and she said in a flat voice.
Chapter 142
In the field at dusk, the howling of the fighting gradually subsided. Stacked corpses, discarded armor, folded flags, and blood stained the snowy earth a mottled crimson color. Before the smoke was extinguished, among the billowing pillars of smoke, vultures could not wait to come from all directions, hovering under this sky full of sky.
The great battle that took place in the wilderness outside the city of light has just ended.
Before the war, the defeat of the siege of Dache had become a thick dark cloud hanging over the heads of the rebels in Western Tibet. The pressure is not only due to the dashing hope of retaking the grain route, but also from the battle to break the siege itself.
If it is said that the border war a few years ago was not enough for the name of the young man who had just emerged to spread all over the north and south of the river, then after that night, this name, not only defended the glory of the four words "descendants of the god of war", but also became a new generation of legends spread by the border army. As for how he led 800 warriors to slaughter in the camp of 10,000 people, unstoppable, and how he was able to summon divine power for his own use, it spread widely, and later, his name seemed to have become an invincible huge shadow.
The setting sun was like blood, and he was stained with layers of blood. This was the first time he had truly commanded an army and led his men into battle, and one enemy after another had been witnessing and offering as he fell.
The battle on the main battlefield was already clear in the afternoon, and He Lituo learned that Li Hu had quietly escaped, knowing that the situation was not good, and hurriedly fled west with the remnants of his cronies. He Du, who had captured Zhongdu before the war and then rushed to fight here, vowed to capture the betrayer with his own hands.
At this moment, at the end of the sunset on the horizon in front of the front, there was the shadow of the war horse that the brigade had turned around, and the shadow of the horse was jubilant, and the advance soldiers came to report that He Du had killed He Lituo, cut off the head, and was going to be brought to Chang'an to be presented to the saint and the princess at the sacrifice ceremony.
Li Yan never showed up, and Li Meng also escaped early, which is a big pity, but this long war, which lasted more than a year, was finally able to come to an end.
For more than ten months, the cycle of scorching heat and harsh winter, day and night on the line of life and death, partners were still there yesterday, and now they are buried in the yellow sand. Finally living to this moment, who doesn't feel homesick and doesn't want to see the faces of their relatives and loved ones?
The wrapped cloth on Pei Xiaoyuan's palm had been soaked with blood, and it was so slippery that he could barely hold the knife. He was also laughing, while bowing his head to untie the blood cloth, while listening to the celebratory voices of the soldiers who surrounded him in the middle, he exhaled slightly, and suddenly, a faint sense of melancholy and cowardice inexplicably surfaced in his heart.
This feeling lasted until half a month later, when he arrived in Weiyuan County.
The commander of the march, Ling Hu Gong, was wounded by a stray arrow while commanding the battle before, when Pei Xiaoyuan was still trapped in the besieged city, and both sides of the river were attacked at the same time, which made Hu Gong feel unprecedented pressure. Fortunately, he was a veteran from Pei Ji's account in the early years, with rich experience and good scheduling, and supported Pei Xiaoyuan to get out of trouble and join him, and the battle was won, Fang completely relaxed and fell down to recuperate.
In the past few days, Pei Xiaoyuan has actually been acting on behalf of Linghu Gong to perform the affairs of the general affairs, compensating for the casualties after the war, arranging for the soldiers to rest and recuperate, and appeasing the local border people who left because of the war. Everything is trivial, but none of them can be delayed. After being busy for half a month, he finally had time to visit his uncle Cui Daosi.
According to Ling Hu Gong's arrangement, Cui Daosi was supposed to be taken to the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion to recuperate, but Cui Daosi repeatedly refused, and Pei Xiaoyuan had previously arranged for someone to send him to the nearby Weiyuan City to settle down and temporarily live in the county guard's mansion.
Due to the impact of the war, many new residents have moved here in the past year, so when Pei Xiaoyuan arrived, this familiar border city where he had lived for many years was unprecedentedly lively. It was evening, and a market at the gate of the city had not yet dispersed.
After entering the city, although he had tried to lower the brim of his hood, he was still recognized by the sharp-eyed old city people, and when Pei Langjun came back, he was surrounded by people and stopped on the street, and the people nearby ran to see him excitedly and knelt down to worship. Many people still remember the old county guard and ask him about Pei Ji. He dismounted, bowed in return, and told them to get up. But they would not get up.
"It's not what it used to be, Pei Langjun must not torture the villains. Lang Jun not only led the army to kill the enemy this time, made great achievements, and kept the next party safe, I heard that he also made a Chang'an horse and married the princess of the dynasty! A stall owner who had been setting up a biscuit stall near the city gate for many years said to the people around him.
"Yes, yes! The princess has a smart and gentle temperament! can draw a good hand of immortals, and the beauty is unparalleled in the world! The stall owner of another pantry chimed in.
"And! Said the colt made Aya last year! The princess has given birth to a doll for the pony! Another man shouted.
When he landed, Pei Xiaoyuan was drowned out by the sound of congratulations one after another.
He was stunned for a moment, not knowing how the news of his work as a colt had reached this remote border city, and it seemed that everyone in the city knew about it.
Before she could react, she heard an old woman ask again: "Dare to ask Lang Jun, is the little lord a man or a woman?" If Lang Jun doesn't like it, tomorrow I will go to the temple to burn incense for the little nobleman, and all the gods in the sky will bless the little nobleman Jin Gui for good health! β
"Yes, yes! Let's go too! Many people echoed and looked at Pei Xiaoyuan.
Pei Xiaoyuan became more and more speechless, paused, endured the embarrassment, and said that he had good intentions, so that everyone didn't have to bother.
