Chapter 598: A Small Border Town
"Seclusion in the mountains...... Qing'er lowered her head and groaned, thinking, she couldn't help but have a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and she already had a yearning in her heart.
She clearly remembered that Bai Song once said that the life he longed for was a life of guarding a landscape, surrounding a group of children, and hugging a few beautiful wives and concubines, without any troubles.
If everything is as Grandpa said, it would be a good thing......
At this moment, Qing'er's heart finally moved, but she was not for herself, but to fulfill Bai Song's wish.
"Grandpa, if everything is as you say, will the prince really be okay with the past and let us live in peace and stability?"
"You should know that what the prince wants is not a one-time gain or loss, if the Shenwu cannon can help us win the world, then he is the hero of the New Tang Dynasty, how can the prince deal with a hero? Even if the prince can't tolerate others in his heart, what about the Mo family? Are you worried that the Mo family's ability will not be able to protect you and Bai Song? ”
"Not only the granddaughter and Bai Gongzi, but also Bai Gongzi's family...... Grandpa wants to promise me that no matter what the cost, he will bring Bai Gongzi's family over safely. ”
"Fool!" Mo Lao shook his head helplessly, but sighed again, "That's it, since you are willing to share a man with other women, grandpa promised you." ”
"This matter cannot be rushed, with the character of Bai Gongzi, he will never agree to this matter in a short time. The crown prince must give me enough time, and the granddaughter will try her best to let Bai Gongzi loosen her mouth. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, when we get to the hinterland of Shuzhong, we have time."
Qing'er thought for a while, had already made up her mind, and nodded: "If there is nothing else, the granddaughter will retire first." ”
"Go ahead."
……
In the first battle of Chengdu, the imperial court won a complete victory.
Li Jing took the opportunity to go all the way south, and within three days, Jiangzhou and Qianwei were two percent.
I wanted to pacify the southwest region of Bashu first, but a heavy snow fell.
Winter came, and the army had to pause and recuperate.
Although the results of the battle were not maximized, several major towns in Yizhou County had been breached, and the army of the imperial court was like a sharp sword crossed into the hinterland of the rebels, dividing the left and right rebels into several pieces, and the end could not be taken care of.
But until now, the imperial court only believed that the rebellion was caused by the Holy Lotus Sect, and did not know that there was a more ambitious New Tang Dynasty hidden behind the Holy Lotus Sect.
This New Tang Dynasty has a lot of plans, and the rebellion caused by the Holy Lotus Sect this time is just the beginning, and even as the prince of the New Tang Dynasty, he does not have much hope for the Holy Lotus Sect, because people with a discerning eye know very well that it is difficult to have an impact on the foundation of the Tang Dynasty with a cult like the Holy Lotus Sect as a call.
The Holy Lotus Sect is just an outcast, as long as it can stir up some of its storms in the Tang Dynasty, it will be considered to have completed the task.
The New Tang Dynasty has been dormant for more than ten years, whether it is the Mo family or Li Jiancheng's remnants, they all know how to endure humiliation and burden, and they are also good at waiting.
Starting from the withdrawal of troops from Chengdu, after a ten-day trek through mountains and rivers, the remaining remnants of the army were stationed in Yizhou City.
The prince of the New Tang Dynasty and the core members of his various ministries went all the way west and entered Yongchang.
And Bai Song naturally followed the brigade to stop and arrived at the city of Yongchang.
Bai Song got out of the car and looked at this small border city in the wind and snow.
In my memory, this place should indeed be Yongchang, but when I look at the door number on the city tower......
Bai Song rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen something wrong.
The stone carving seal on the city tower is engraved with two words - "New Tang Dynasty".
Bai Song frowned, and said in his heart that these people are so bold that they have actually tampered with the city without permission!
Looking at the traces of the lettering, it is obvious that it has experienced a lot of feng shui and sun exposure, leaving a lot of traces of time.
It's not a recent thing.
There were people on the border of the Tang Dynasty who planted the flag in a grand manner, and the imperial court did not receive any news.
Bai Song sighed in his heart, the so-called Zhenguan rule should have been a prosperous era, but the experience was full of holes and various hidden dangers.
Bai Song can cure diseases and save people, but if a country is sick, he can't cure it.
Bai Song sighed deeply, and then Qing'er, who got out of the car, posted over: "Childe, don't worry, Qing'er promised you that she would help you leave." Here, let's stay in peace and wait for the right time. ”
Bai Song nodded, he was in a hurry to leave, but not now.
Even if no one stops you, in the depths of the Bashu Mountains, wanting to get out of the mountains in winter is tantamount to death.
Everything will have to wait until the beginning of spring.
But when spring begins, my own half-year period, there is not much time.
As a prisoner, Bai Song was asked not to leave New Tang City.
As long as you are in the New Tang City, there will be no restrictions on what you can do, and all the requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation will be met first.
Bai Song's treatment was even more generous than that of the prince's close ministers.
After all, the New Tang Dynasty City is not as good as Chang'an, there are fewer people in the city, and there are no big houses.
Mo Lao assigned Bai Song a mansion, with a front and back yard, a total of seven or eight rooms, and a vegetable garden that was not too small, which was already the top mansion in the city.
In fact, it doesn't matter where you live, in order to keep Bai Song, the best configuration is to accompany Miss Mo Jia day and night.
When he was in Chang'an, there was more of a primary and secondary distinction between Bai Song and Qing'er, and Qing'er acted more as Bai Song's deputy who was not a subordinate, helping Bai Song deal with all the idle and trivial matters, so that Bai Song could be a shopkeeper with peace of mind.
But this reunion after a long absence, whether it is in Bai Song's heart or Qing'er's feelings, the relationship between the two has become more intimate subtly.
Especially on the way to New Tang City, Bai Song and Qing'er took the same car, slept on Qing'er's lap every day, and had long been accustomed to the taste of Qing'er.
On the first day of coming to Xintang, the two arrived at the new house, but they had to sleep separately.
Bai Song was uncomfortable that night, he always felt that something was missing, and he was not used to the days without sunny children.
Bai Song also knew very well that this was a ploy by Mo Lao and the prince, who wanted to use Qing'er to tie himself up and soften his heart.
However, Bai Song's heart was very firm, no matter what happened, the Shenwu cannon would definitely not be handed over to them.
But Qing'er he wants it too!
Since Qing'er left the Mo family to follow him, Bai Song never thought about letting Qing'er go.
Before, it was just that the time was not ripe, and there were still many girls around who didn't determine their identities in their hearts, and they couldn't take care of Qing'er.
Now it's okay, being in the enemy camp, and not leaving for a short time, the only thing you can do is to fall in love with Qing'er.
Since God has given such an opportunity, Bai Song naturally wants to push the boat along the river and let the relationship between the two develop further.
