Everyone is busy.

I'm also busy.

I was so busy that I didn't have time for a big wedding, no time to cave a room, and no time to grieve.

Since I left, the front-line battle situation has been at a disadvantage, Wang Hui Huaishui battle was defeated, 200,000 troops are only 7,000 remaining, and now waiting for Zhao Xingyang; Yan Zhu surrendered to the enemy Huiji lost and fell; Juyang all the way to the 150,000 troops ambushed by the rebels on the way, with countless casualties, and the general Li Xi of the chariot and cavalry was martyred; Dongfang Shuo, who was with him, was arrested and sent to Juyang, and persuaded Liu Xiang to surrender to no avail, and was immediately killed with a rod; now the rebels have gathered 400,000 troops and have surrounded Xingyang into an iron barrel, and the people have guns and cannons. Thanks to Dou Ying's experience, he will not be in danger of breaking the city for a while, but if it goes on like this, it will be a matter of time before Xingyang is lost.

The urgent news continued, Liu Che was anxious, and stayed in the Xuan Room day and night with several important cabinet ministers, and the number of meetings with me was limited. This is exactly what I want, and I have my own things to do.

"I don't care if Wei Qing or someone else, contact him, tell him I want the detailed location of the rebel arsenal, and ask him to do everything he can to get it. ”

As a result, Han Yan told me that Liu Che had already explained this matter in the morning, but there was no response yet.

I sent someone to Bigu, and I remember that there was oil there. On the premise of ensuring the safety of their lives, let them get as much as they want, and maybe when they can use it.

The next day after returning to Beijing, I met my beloved apprentice Xiao Huo, after Wei Qing's accident, Wei's family was not implicated, Xiao Huo has been living in Xiao Liu Pavilion to study military affairs, after I came back, I followed me like a fart and lived in the examination room with me.

The situation is so urgent that it is impossible to make firearms and weapons, but simple weapons can still ———— such as mines and grenades! I took out the spirit of the eight-year anti-Japanese war and the three-year war of resistance, and the soldiers at that time could make their own earthen guns, earth cannons, earth mines, and grenades, and explosives, and I could too.

It was reported that the emperor sent Han Yan to my envoy, collected materials everywhere, and made gunpowder within three days. On the seventh day, the first grenade of the Han Dynasty was born, and on the same night, a mine appeared. During this period, Xiao Huo has been by my side and witnessed the whole process of the birth of new weapons.

The emperor gave full support to my work, and the examination room was constantly expanded, the number of personnel increased dramatically, and it was put into production in shifts, and I believe that within a month, it could be transported to the front in batches.

So I secretly prayed that the longer the battle for the defense of Xingyang was fought, the better, and the longer it dragged on, the more time it would win us.

Half a month later, in the evening, I returned to Weiyang Palace and arranged for Xiao Huo to live in the side hall. When I returned to the dormitory, I saw Liu Che, who was lying on my bed in Jinhua Hall and fell asleep.

I sat down on the edge of the collapse and quietly watched his sleeping face......

His eyebrows were furrowed, and there was a big word "Chuan" between his eyebrows. It's dark, it's also gone, and the corners of his mouth are tightly pursed, revealing a stubborn look.

It's a little sad, if it weren't for my appearance, he would have been his Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in a good manner, and he wouldn't have suffered this crime for no reason.

I think of a lot of the past, and I think about his benefits. Although he has always been an oppressor in my eyes, he forced me to do something I didn't want to do according to my personal wishes, including forcing me to be an official, forcing me to enter the palace, using my intelligence to squeeze my physical strength, and guarding me everywhere, deceiving me in everything, stealing my Hetian jade and doing everything possible to make me one of the three thousand beauties. But over the years, he has never really harmed me, except for being flogged in prison, it is more his favor and connivance with me, in the face of my persistence and stubbornness, it is always him who gives in in the end. Even for such a serious rebellion, I have an unshirkable responsibility, but to this day he has not said a word of gravity, not a word of reproach. Those smoky momentum and coercive means are just the usual methods used by emperors. I know for myself that even if his intentions for me are not a hundred, there will always be seventy, not to mention for the emperor, even if it is an ordinary person, this is already rare.

It's just that at that time, I was full of only Yan Qixing, and even if I could see it, I deliberately ignored it. Now Yan Qixing has given me a slap in the face, and when I think of these past events, I feel guilty and grateful.

You can see the distance but you can't see the near, just because the distance produces beauty. People, sometimes that's how cheap they are.

"I hope I can help you and repay your love. I whispered.

Lying down beside him quietly, it was natural, I didn't feel embarrassed, and I no longer had the heart to resist, because now I was his queen———— although it was only a nominal queen.

After a while, he didn't feel sleepy at all, staring at the high ceiling in a daze, his thoughts drifting to this undecided war. In fact, there is a better way, I can restore history without fighting, after getting the Hetian jade, I can run away and hide until that day comes, and then restore everything. But I can't do that.

Out of anger towards Yan Qixing or guilt towards Liu Che, I didn't dare to think deeply, for fear of digging out the ugliness and darkness in my heart, and finally even looking down on myself. Let me find an excuse above board, or this is not an excuse, but my original intention and choice. Think about it, what would I do if it weren't for Yan Qixing?

For the sake of friendship with Liu Che, for the sake of the Han nation, and for the sake of correcting history, to do what I can and should do, this is Liu Dan's duty. Although the trip to Huiji was painful, it strengthened the original direction.

I'd love to see if they can really turn the sky upside down?!

Through his clothes, he touched Hetian Yu, who was hidden close to him, and his heart was very quiet. After all, this is not my place, and after a big joke on me, God finally opened the door to me to go home.

As for Liu Che, this man is destined to let him down. Forgive me, I can't pass on the hurt I received from another man to another man, especially one who treats me sincerely. Even to make up for emptiness and delusional comfort is extremely despicable. My love has failed, and personality cannot fail. I can't deceive myself, let alone deceive others, otherwise, I will be even more sorry for the man in front of me.

But...... I laughed at myself in my heart: You are not as noble as you thought, and in the end, you didn't use that agreement to get back Hetian Yu? However, when I go back to my world, this era will not leave any traces of my coming, and this man will not have any memory about me, he doesn't know me and hasn't seen me, but it's good. It's like I wish I hadn't known Yan Qixing.

This is the ending, and it will be the best.

"It's back. A hoarse voice sounded in his ears, and he woke up.

I subconsciously reached out and patted him, with pity in my words: "Sleep a little longer, you're too tired." ”

He said "um", hugged me with his backhand, buried his face in my neck, took a deep breath and said sleepily, "I want to talk to you." ”

"You need sleep right now. "I coaxed him. "Sleep, I'll be with you. ”

He snuggled up in my arms, closed his eyes, and whispered, "Do you know who the new commander of the 400,000-strong army is?"

My heart was shocked, and he asked, could it be ...... "Yan Qixing?"

Liu Che sighed and acquiesced.

"You've seen him. When he finally mentioned it, he smiled wryly, as if blaming himself for not being able to hold his breath after all.

"Yes. "I admit it. "We had a complete falling out. ”

Liu Che was silent for a moment, but couldn't help but ask, "Why?

I simply said, "The Tao is not the same." ”

I'm embarrassed to tell him that I've been dumped, my only remaining self-esteem.

"Alas. Liu Che sighed again. "I didn't expect him to be the master of Danxinqi. ”

I didn't want to talk about him, so I changed the subject: "How is Xingyang, can you keep it?"

He didn't speak for a long time, and it was estimated that the situation was not very optimistic.

"I want to do it myself. He sat up and stared at me in the dim candlelight.

I was startled and sat up, "Are you kidding?"

Now that he can see it clearly, Liu Che's eyes are bloodshot, and his expression is extremely serious: "The reinforcements sent by Han Anguo were blocked from advancing at the mouth of the three cliffs, and Dou Ying had to fight alone, and if this continues, it will be only a matter of time before Xingyang falls." I decided to personally lead my troops to the aid of Xingyang and fight the rebels to the death. ”

He must have fainted in the skull.

"Absolutely not!" I jumped out of bed and flatly refused. "You are the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and you can't take risks easily, not to mention that the matter is not serious enough to be that serious. Although we are temporarily at a disadvantage, with you in Chang'an, even if you fight to a single soldier, as long as you are there, the Han is there. But once you go to the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, in case you have any mistakes, our big man is finished, you can't go. ”

Hearing me say this, Liu Che's bloodshot eyes lit up, and he was instantly filled with a smile, and asked, "Are you worried about me because you're worried about me, or are you worried about me because you're worried about the Great Han Kingdom?"

"Is there a difference? You are the Great Han Kingdom, and the Great Han Kingdom is you. "I steer clear of his ulterior motives. "In short, I will never approve of the pro-conquest. It's not like there's no one in the court, so why do you want to go there yourself?"

Before he had time to express his opinion, Lu Guang hurriedly came to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Han is in a hurry, please move your Majesty to the Xuan Room." ”

Liu Che thought for a moment, took my hand and said, "Come with me." ”

Xingyang is lost.

The city wall was hit by artillery fire many times, several times to blow up the gap, several times by the defenders with stones and dirt bags, although barely supported, in the end the defense was fragile, all by the desperate resistance of the officers and soldiers on the city, paid a great price of casualties, blocked the rebels' attacks again and again. Beginning three days ago, Yan Qi's operation used two-thirds of his troops to carry out a non-stop attack on the eastern gate of Xingyang City, where the city wall was the weakest.

The defenders held out for a day and a night, and in the early morning of the next day, under the pressure of huge artillery fire, all the gaps that had been broken through in the previous days were blown open, and the rebels relied on the cover of artillery and arrows to enter Xingyang City.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Dou Ying was helpless, cleared the wilderness, burned all the granaries, fought to the death with the rebels, and finally broke out from the West Gate. At the mouth of the three cliffs, he encountered the rebel troops who intercepted the reinforcements, fought another big battle, joined the reinforcements, and defeated Liu Yang, Liu Che's strategy of fighting a decisive battle in Xingyang ended in failure. However, under such strong pressure, he actually held on for more than half a month, Dou Ying is also powerful, and Jiang is still old and spicy.

In the Xuan room, in the face of this bad news, one by one the important ministers of the court frowned deeply and were uneasy.

Past Liu Yang, it is Chang'an. The rebels have been directed at the center of the Han Dynasty.

Han Anguo's military newspaper said that all preparations had been made to redeploy the battle situation, and Liu Yang would never fall into the hands of the enemy. But this kind of empty check is really not credible, and the most important thing now is to find a turnaround in the crisis. In the past, I watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms admire Zhuge Liang's five-body throw, and felt that as long as he frowned and thought about it, he could win any war. But after experiencing real battles, I found that if there is no strength as a foundation, it will have no use. Money, troops, weapons, accurate intelligence and strategy are always the main themes of war.

And we, the difference is only in weapons.

Weapons, weapons......

The emperor and his courtiers expressed their opinions on Han Anguo's new strategy around the military map, and I, a layman, couldn't interject at all, only listened. While talking, Han Yan came in from outside in a hurry, and said something in Liu Che's ear, Liu Che looked at me with a happy face.

Han Yan said proudly: "Queen Mother, I have great news for you." ”

Sure enough, it's great news, whether it's Wei Qing's undercover agent or not, he really got the detailed address of the rebel arsenal———— Shouchun, Huaiyin, and Yingyang. Today, all three are in the rebels' sphere of influence, with Shouchun being the largest.

I am not familiar with the territory of the Han Dynasty, and I completely rely on Han Yan's explanation, so I can't see that this kid still has some military acumen, and the terrain he talks about should be a little bit of the way, plus the deployment of troops in each city obtained from the intelligence, plus the situation of Liu Yang, I made the following preliminary plan:

Support Han Anguo's deployment: The venue of the conference battle was relocated to Liu Yang. Dou Ying and Wang Hui were both troops, and one was stationed in Gongxian County in front of Liu Yang, which was the only way for the rebels to attack Liu Yang. Another army was sent to set up an ambush in Dayu and move with a feeding machine. If the battle of Liu Yang is certain, if it is successful, it will completely turn the tide of the war; if it is defeated, it will retreat to Wuguan on all fronts and strive to protect Chang'an, so as to plan for the future. Wang Hui led his troops south to Huaishui, and once again went all out to destroy the rebels' grain route.

Take out the rebel arsenal. Shouchun was the center of the rebels' forces, so they abandoned it first, focusing on Huaiyin and Yingyang, Huaiyin's troops were weak, and they sent their boat divisions south along Huaishui to feint on Huaisi, and at the same time sent elite elites to secretly cross Chencang to try to enter Huaiyin City, and blew up the arsenal and arsenal at all costs. The other is the closest to Chang'an, the most heavily guarded, and it is expected that it can only be attacked, even if it cannot be attacked, it can also be used to attract part of the army of Yan Qi and reduce the pressure on Liu Yang. If the Han army moves quickly and attacks it unprepared, with a new gunpowder weapon, Yingyang may not be unrestrained. Of course, it would be better if you could outwit it, and it would depend on the mind of the general with the troops.

Han Yan received Huaiyin's errand, and seeing his enthusiastic appearance, my heart moved, thinking of those oils, and an idea gradually formed in my heart.

Regardless of the dissuasion of the ministers, Liu Che insisted on recruiting Liu Yang in person. The reason for the pro-conquest was high-sounding, but his eyes unconsciously glanced at me, and I was suspicious. Look at his eager look, what did he say to encourage morale, he simply wanted to fight, or was there a reason for Yan Qixing? No, I shook my head secretly. As an emperor, it is impossible to be so capricious.

In the end, the ministers could not resist the emperor and gave in.

Back in Jinhua Palace, Liu Che was excited about the upcoming battle, and even his haggard face looked bright.

I poured cold water on my head and said, "Your Majesty, no matter what, you can't go to Liu Yang." ”

"I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more. "He took out the emperor's style to press me.

I patiently persuaded him: "For the sake of Your Majesty's safety, you really can't go." As the saying goes, doesn't it say that a country cannot be without a king for a day. ”

He turned his head to look at me, and he gave me another strange look. To be bad!

Sure enough, in the next second, he lowered his face and said, "You, don't you want me to fight against Yan Qixing?"

I rolled my eyes and sneered: "I think, I am a very vain woman, and I especially want a man to beat me up and break the bloodstream, so as to prove that my charm is not good? Go ahead, go ahead, I'm not going to stop you. ”

He had never spoken to him in such a tone, and he was snatched away coldly, and he couldn't understand it for a long time, Liu Che was a little stunned.

I smiled wryly, softened my tone and said, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry. I am mostly responsible for this situation, and I should clean up this mess rather than let Your Majesty take risks. ”

As he spoke, his heart became hot, and he walked up to him in a few steps and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, I'll go, isn't it just to encourage morale? I'm the Empress of the Han Dynasty, isn't it the same if I go for you?"

"No, I can't. This time, he categorically vetoed it.

"Why?" I raised my voice. "When it comes to fighting, I have more experience than Your Majesty, and in terms of martial arts, I am also one of the best in the entire Han Kingdom, and more importantly, I know how to use new weapons on the fly. In this way, it seems that no one is better suited than me. Your Majesty, I'll go. ”

Liu Che looked at me with a sinking face, his eyes flickering.

"Don't think about him. "I collapsed.

Liu Che furrowed his eyebrows: "Do you know who I am thinking?"

"Isn't it just Yan Qixing?" I turned and sat down on the bed, panicking in my heart. "Is Your Majesty worried that I won't be able to do anything about his old affection, or is he afraid that I will defect and help him in the middle of the battle?"

"Will you?" he asked earnestly.

"No, it won't. "I'm sure I looked him in the eye and wanted him to see my sincerity.

Sighing, he sat down beside me, his face flushed a little, and said, "Anyway, I ...... I don't want you to see you again. ”

It turned out to be jealous!

I couldn't help laughing, took his hand, and swore solemnly, "In that case, I promise not to meet him." ”

After a moment of silence, he said, "In that case, well, I will allow you to go with me!"

It seems that he is determined to go to war.

Naturally, I opposed it to the end, tried hard to persuade each other, but it was ineffective.

But I'm not worried, even if I can't persuade him, there is still one person———— hehe, if there is another person in the world who can restrain him, it must be Wang Huan.

On the first day of July in 133 AD, the Empress of the Han Dynasty, on behalf of His Majesty the Great Emperor, increased her troops by 100,000 and personally conquered Liu Yang!

The sun is scorching and the sky is clear.

The armor of the school military field is layered, and the halberds are cold, shining people's eyes. Liu Che was dressed in a military uniform, his eyes were majestic, and he sacrificed to the heavens and then made some generals. The general of the Chinese army was appointed by the Zhonglang general Tang Meng, and I went out on behalf of the emperor to lead the military supervision.

The hunting battle flag is fluttering and fluttering, and the Zheng Zheng declaration is thrilling.

Among the 100,000 iron horsemen, there is a general with a bronze mask, and there is a child riding a sweaty horse. The bronze mask is to fulfill the promise not to meet, and the little P child is a crying, making trouble, and hanging himself. Liu Che smiled bitterly and said that he knew that this method was feasible, and he also followed it, but unfortunately someone was one step ahead of him, his mother, the Queen Mother, so he was the one who succumbed.

Xiao Huo and I were dressed from head to toe in military uniforms, majestic and murderous, after the oath of the general, in the sound of rolling iron hooves, out of Chang'an!

Immediately looking back at Chang'an, Liu Che was faintly seen staring at the high city gate...... In fact, I knew in my heart that in addition to boosting morale, he was willing to let me go on the expedition this time, and it was somewhat of a test and other nature: he wanted to know if I was really willing to be willing to give up my old feelings for him and the big man, and even fight against the man I loved. Still, I am grateful to him, and it took considerable courage for him to trust me and entrust me with a heavy responsibility in the face of uncertainty.

The supervising army, equivalent to a military division, "between the strategy and the square inch, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away", hehe, that's Zhang Liang, not me. However, maybe I am fortunate to be able to worship Zhang Liangzuo's master.

Fight for 100,000 skull blood, and you must save the world!

The 100,000 iron horsemen were magnificent, winding and winding without seeing the tail at a glance, galloping like a raging dragon under the hot sun, rolling up the smoke and dust in the sky, and quickly driving towards Liu Yang.

It's going to be battle, it's going to war, and the opponent is him!

Forcibly suppressing the sudden rush of sorrow, I shook the reins and followed the surging army towards the end of the future.

The situation of the rain in Liu Yangcheng has not changed because of the addition of 100,000 troops and a queen. The only thing that made me feel useful was that the arrival of the Empress was a morale boost.

Ammunition was delivered to the front, along with 2,000 soldiers who were skilled in the use of ammunition, and they were tasked with the task of coaching.

For the next three days, I would go to the soldiers every day, fulfilling my duties as a military supervisor, mingling with the soldiers in addition to patrolling and supervising, and caring about their daily life, food, and drills. With the dignity of the queen of a country, such a courteous corporal has invisibly improved the cohesion of the army.

Han Anguo was very interested in what I brought, but in order not to waste resources, everyone could not use real ammunition during training, but only wooden sticks of equal weight instead. After seeing the power of the humble grenades and mines, the morale of the soldiers was unprecedentedly high, and they were full of enthusiasm for the comical practice of throwing with wooden sticks, and they all scrambled to be the first to throw farther than anyone else.

After the fall of Xingyang and the reorganization of the army, Yan Qixing did not attack Liu Yang for a long time, as if we were deliberately leaving time to prepare for the war, but the war was so cruel, of course this assumption would not be true. Han Anguo sent people to Wang Hui and Dou Ying, asking them to closely observe the enemy's situation and be careful of the enemy's sudden attack. (Han Anguo, according to the records in the history books, is really unlikeable.) But this time I came to Liu Yang, and I saw with my own eyes that his ability and wisdom were indeed outstanding, and he did everything himself, his diet and daily life were exactly the same as those of the soldiers, and he was strict in governing the army and approached the fine army, so his impression of him changed. ）

As a result, the rebels really attacked suddenly that night, but fortunately, Dou Ying had already made preparations, and the ambush troops set up in Dayu were exhausted, using rolling stones, wood, and rockets to successfully counter the sneak attack, and retreated to Gongxian. This was the first victory of the Han army since the beginning of the war, although it was only a small victory, but it greatly boosted morale, and let everyone see that the rebels with muskets and artillery are not invincible.

In ancient times, communications were not well developed, and we had no way of knowing what the situation was in other theaters at the first time, and it was often three or four days after the battle was over, and it would be good to get a war report here. Liu Yang was close to the Gongxian military camp, and it was the next day after receiving the battle report. A day later, the vanguard of the rebels attacked Gongxian, led by Lei Bei.

This time, the ammunition delivered played a pivotal role. For a long time, the rebels relied on the superiority of artillery, and although it was not like exploring the city and plundering the land, it was always one-sided in the end, and this time it suffered an unprecedented heavy blow in the small Gongxian County. Dou Ying actually used the long-distance re-throwing equipment of the stone throwing machine to throw the explosives package into the besieging enemy, plus grenades, the rebels were caught off guard and immediately fell into chaos. The rebels lost more than 7,000 men and horses, and countless were wounded.

Lei was unwilling to fail, regrouped and fought Gong County, fought bloody for three hours, and finally took Gong County, and after they all entered the city, they were greeted by an empty city and an earth-shattering loud noise. The rebel vanguard units were all killed in the minefields. Turning into ashes, there were more than a dozen Han soldiers who were responsible for controlling the mine engine.

The great victory in Gongxian boosted the morale of the entire Han army, swept away the pessimistic and decadent Tang Dynasty in the past, and even the gloomy court seemed to see the clouds, and Liu Che's commendation order was full of joy.

I know this is just the beginning.

Because you can get away with it by surprise. Now that their own family background has been revealed, they have lost their advantages, and the future wars will be even more cruel.

The Yan Qixing Division, which had suffered defeat, did not move for several days, and we were also reorganizing the army. The battle clouds were dense in the front, and the rear was not idle, and the newly baked ammunition was continuously sent over to prepare for Liu Yang's general battle.

In the dead of night, I couldn't sleep.

Counting the days, the war has been going on for more than a month. There are still two months, and there are still two months to come to the fourth year of the Han Dynasty, and I will usher in the third Mid-Autumn Festival.

I'm afraid it's also the last Mid-Autumn Festival.

I hope that this Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a round moon and a clear sky.

Just thinking about his thoughts, a soldier sent a small brocade silk, saying that someone was outside the city asking to see the queen's mother. When I opened it, there were a few words written on it: The deceased is visiting, please give me a visit. The payment is Zhao Min.

This Zhao Min is really elusive.

After the last goodbye, I don't know if she made a decision. Do you want to go away or get back to your lover?

When looking for me at such a sensitive time, you must be guarded against.

I changed into civilian clothes and went to the castle tower. Liu Yangcheng was heavily guarded, and the soldiers on watch were all in good spirits, and they did not show any fatigue.

"See the Queen's Mother. The guard at the bend was actually Xiao Huo, holding a halberd taller than him in his hand, and his little face was tight, but he looked decent. I habitually raised my hand to rub his head, but I felt the cold helmet and felt a shock.

"Are you tired?" I asked him.

Xiao Huo shook his head firmly: "Back to Niangniang, you are not tired of being humble." ”

In the dark night, his eyes were as bright as stars, full of enthusiasm and anticipation———— enthusiasm and anticipation for the battle. I almost forgot that he was originally a general, and he only did one thing in his life, which was war.

The night breeze is cold, and the lights of the city tower are hanging high. Looking down by the light, Zhao Min was riding alone and looking up. When he saw me, he smiled.

"Let her in. I said.

The dishes are fresh, the wine is overflowing, and the two women who were friends and rivals in love, and now they can't figure out whether they are friends or enemies, are full of pride, and they toast three times in a row.

After drinking, it is natural to remember the past.

"I remember when I first met you, you were just a fifteen-year-old girl. Unconsciously, it has grown up. I looked at her delicate face and said. I haven't seen her lose weight for a few days, and this is the season for weight loss.

"Actually, I was 18 years old at the time. "She's a little embarrassed. "A fifteen-year-old girl seems to be more trustworthy. ”

After being stunned, I smiled bitterly: "Even this is a lie to me?"

She smiled and said, "Now Brother Dan should know that I was a natural liar." ”

I laughed, "So what are you going to lie to me about this time?"

The smile on her face deepened, and she suddenly asked me mysteriously, "Do you want to know what the biggest deception is?"

I pointed my finger at myself in surprise: "Me?"

She nodded.

I laughed and said, "I think the biggest deception for a woman is the deception of feelings." Are you lying to my feelings? Fortunately, I'm not gay. ”

"What is homosexuality?" she asked, puzzled.

"Longyang's fetish. "I understand it now.

Zhao Min smiled. After a long time, he said: "If Brother Dan is a man, maybe I will like you." ”

"Well, you still don't like me. I shook my head. "I'm a person, usually nothing, and I'm more ruthless than an exterminator, and it's hard to entrust me for life. ”

"So you simply want to be ruthless to the end and come back to be Liu Che's queen?" her words suddenly sharpened. "You want to get revenge on him?"

It turned out that she knew everything.

"We're just going to talk about friendship today, okay? I don't want to talk about anything else. "I was picking up the food and lost my appetite for a moment. "If you come for another purpose, I'm sorry, this glass of wine is my send-off. "Pick up the cup and drink it all.

Zhao Min looked at me in a daze, his eyes were red, and he seemed to have nowhere to vent his grievances, so he poured himself a glass of wine and swallowed it. Looking at her posture with the wine cup, it seems that she has been drinking.

"I have something to say. She said.

"The words are in the wine. I said.

So the two of them didn't speak, you drank one by one, the wine was rice wine, it wasn't intoxicating, and if you drank too much, you just had a red face and a hazy look.

"I went back. I came out of nowhere, but I understood it, and my heart began to feel uncomfortable.

"I admire you. Again, I still understand it, but it's even more uncomfortable.

"Have pity on you. "It was harsh, but I thought I understood it, so I was very annoyed.

"Because you've been deceived. She looked me straight in the eyes, and there was a strange look in her eyes, some pity and some sadness.

I couldn't bear it anymore, so I put down the wine cup with a "bang", and pointed out of the city without grace and said, "I won't send it far." "Get up and go.

"Brother Dan. She cried out, and suddenly fell on the desk and wept bitterly.

I can't see tears the most, especially women's tears, so I panicked for a while, so I had to go back to her side and comfort her repeatedly: "What are you doing? Why are you crying when you have nothing to do? What have you been wronged about? Tell your sister when you have been wronged, and my sister will be angry for you." ”

Zhao Min burst into tears and snot, grabbed my hand and shouted, "Don't go against him, count me begging you, don't go against him again." ”

A basin of cold water was poured on his head, cold from head to foot, so cold that his heart was so cold that he was cold when he spoke: "I thought something was wrong, it turned out that I was holding grievances for him." I said don't mention these things, do you have to make me uncomfortable for you to be comfortable?"

"He's going to die. Zhao Min shouted hoarsely. "And you're going to regret it. ”

"He wants to die, no one stops him, even if he dies to the side, even if he regrets it, I will never regret it. "I was angry, tough, mean. From the beginning of the war to the present, it is clear that he has led all the way and gained the upper hand, and no one will be able to die. Running to me for a victor to intercede, this woman is dizzy.

Zhao Min gasped and said, "Are you really so ruthless?"

In the face of her accusations, I really couldn't cry or laugh, and said angrily: "Miss, do you want to figure it out." Sadly, he's not me. I, just do what I have to do. When I repay the debt of affection, pat my ass and leave, and from then on, the mountains and rivers will not meet, and I will be happy and pure. ”

suppressed the fire, sat down next to the desk, sighed and said, "That dead guy made me hurt and sad, and if you finally calm down, you can let me stop a little." If you want to sit for a while, drink more and talk less. I really want to say, talk about some interesting topics, otherwise I don't have to open my mouth. ”

Zhao Min wiped away her tears and said, "Okay...... I'll tell you my sister's story. ”

I looked up to the sky and sighed, to be honest, I really don't want to hear it, how can I be in the mood to listen to the story now? However, looking at her tears, alas, "I don't talk about politics, I don't talk about war, I don't talk about sensitive issues." "Whatever her purpose is, reluctantly, listen.

After taking a sip of wine, her face became more and more red, and she said slowly: "When I was twelve years old, my sister took me to officially join Dan Xinqi. My sister is a very beautiful person, and she is the closest to me, and we talk about everything. One day she told me that she had seen her master. Our master has always seen the dragon with a head but not a tail, and when he appeared, he wore a mask, and no one ever saw his true face. My sister was really excited to see her master's face by chance...... Later, she told me that she liked the host. ”

"Expected. I held it up and muttered to myself. A female subordinate falls in love with a male boss, and the old story is old.

Woman, isn't it just that little bit of a mess? annoying, very annoying, annoying to the word "love", because it is covered in bruises, alone in the night like a beast TS wounds, until now it has not been flawed, and when I touch it, it hurts to death. Love, cut, is simply the best weapon for killing, much more powerful than any modern weapon, I don't know who invented it, it's really killing people and not paying for their lives.

Scratching his hair irritably, alas, it's really lately, and the resentful mentality is unacceptable, because of a stinky man, because of a broken love, his temperament has changed drastically, it's not worth it. People who are worthy will not make you sad, and people who make you sad are not worthy at all. The classic words of modern people have won my heart.

After thinking about it, I didn't hear what Zhao Min said next, until she stabbed me, and I came back to my senses and looked at her blankly: "Huh, what did you say?"

She looked at me plaintively, "Don't you want to know which master it is?"

I said, "It's better not to be Yan Qixing." ”

She asked curiously, "But why?"

I pointed at myself and then at her, and said with a wry smile: "I, you, add one more her, is there no man in the world?"

Zhao Min stared at me steadily, his slightly wine-induced eyes were charming, and his red face was like a blooming rose, bright under the lamp.

I rolled my eyes.

"My sister used to be open-minded and lively, but since she liked her master, she has become taciturn. Because she can't see her master often, and her heart is naturally unknown to her master. ”

There is no more painful and sweetest thing in the world than a crush, and I know this very well. My first love was also the sweetness and pain that I can never say.

I'm a little ashamed, because he's Xiao Jian, and I've hardly thought of him in the past year. After deciding that we would never see each other again, we will meet again. I don't know if God is deliberately playing tricks on me.

When the fugue was too empty, I listened to Zhao Min babbling about the past. It's nothing more than the feelings of children, the joys and sorrows of secret love, and the situation every time we meet...... It seems that the relationship between her sisters is really good, so good that Zhao Min talked about all the situations in great detail.

As I listened, my heart began to ferment, and little by little it became sour.

Listen to Yan Qixing to Zhao Min's sister...... Oh, it's called Zhao Xiuzhu, (the name is much more elegant than Xiujiao) is not without affection, after all, she is the first woman to see his true face, since she is reluctant to kill, it is inevitable that there will be a strange feeling, but unfortunately the relationship between the two of them has always been in an ambiguous stage, and before it has time to move forward, Xiuzhu died.

"In order to win the trust of the Han Ting, another master, Lord Fuyong, secretly helped the master to arrest the criminal, and even deliberately leaked the secrets of Dan Xinqi to the outside world, and led the embroidered messenger to come to clean up, and the master took advantage of this to win many meritorious deeds and soar to the top of the official fortune......" She smiled bitterly and couldn't continue.

"Who knows, but it is stepping on the corpses of many of your brothers and sisters in Danxinqi, and ascending all the way. That's what you're trying to say. I widened my face and narrowed my eyes, sneering softly. I haven't seen anything in the organization for so many years, and it's expected, which is very commonsense. But selling one's own people for profit is exactly what I hate.

Who am I falling in love with? And a belly of acetic acid quickly volatilized and dissipated without a trace, leaving only a large hole that was corroded.

He won't betray even a woman who loves him wholeheartedly.

Zhao Min continued to tell the story: "Five years ago, Dan Xinqi was once again surrounded and suppressed by the Han Dynasty, naturally, this was also arranged in advance. The casualties were very small, but the people who died were all important people in Dan's heart. I don't understand why Fuyong-sama did this, or if these important people have different intentions? It was also on that occasion that my sister blocked a sword for the injured Fuyong-sama and died of serious injuries. ”

She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "My sister thinks that she sacrificed her life to save her beloved, but she didn't know that the one who stabbed her with a sword was." She didn't know that all this was fake, and that the master's sword would never take the life of Lord Fuyong, but her sister suddenly broke out and hit the tip of the sword. Lord Fuyong is also benevolent and righteous, dragging his injured body and trying his best to save her life, but unfortunately he is still unable to return to the sky. ”

"It's all face-to-face, doesn't she even know that Yan Qixing is the master of the Dan Xinqi she loves?"

"When she was hit by the sword, she found out that the person who stabbed her was actually the person she loved deeply, but you know how shocked she would be at that time......" She described as bleak, still related. "My sister said many things to me before leaving, but there was one sentence that she repeated three times: "Don't take revenge!" I think she understood it by then, but I didn't know until recently. ”

I can't compare to her. Although I can't agree with this approach, I respect it. For this woman, I don't feel a little respect.

"Brother Dan, do you know why I fell in love with my master?" said the word "love", her expression darkened, and the light in her eyes seemed to wane.

"Your sister is on her deathbed, and she wants you to love him forever and take care of him forever instead of her. "The words are not accurate, but my intuition is very accurate, but I can't use Yan Qixing.

Sure enough, Zhao Min showed a look of amazement, then smiled, took a sip of wine and said, "I often wonder, are you an immortal?"

I said slowly, "I'm wondering, do you really love Yan Qixing, or is it for your sister's entrustment?"

Zhao Min was stunned and quickly lowered his head.

"But I don't understand, how do you know that the one your sister loves is Yan Qixing and not Fuyong, before that, you weren't kept in the dark all the time, and you didn't know that Dan Xinqi had two masters, didn't you?"

Zhao Min sighed slightly and said, "My sister's milk name is Xiaozhu, and there is only one person in this world who calls her that. When the incident started, the two masters showed their true faces, and when they saw me, the master said: You look really like Xiaozhu. ”

After a pause, a painful look appeared on her face: "Do you know how I felt at that time? She is the enemy who killed my sister, and she is the one my sister loves deeply, what can I do?"

I said, "It's all wrong, so I'll just walk away." "The simplest and most irresponsible way is something that everyone can do, both ancient and modern.

Yan Qixing must have seen the pain and struggle in her heart, so he sent an errand and asked her to return the qin to me, so as to give her time to make a decision.

is so thoughtful and considerate, is it out of guilt for my sister, or is it intentional for my sister?

Not sure.

Ever since we turned our faces, to be precise, from Sifang Town, I have lost the ability to grasp the mental activities of Yan Qixing. Think about him in the bad way, I'm afraid that my perspective is not right, and my mind is dark: think about him in the good way, and I feel that I am too exalted to him. In a word: uncertain.

"But in the end I went back to my master. When he said this, Zhao Min looked very calm, although facing me...... This former "big" wife is not half embarrassed. "You ask me if it's because of my sister's entrustment or if I really like him, and I can answer you, I, really like him. Am I wrong?"

With that, she looked at me quietly, watching my reaction. But what would you like to see me react to? jealousy, sadness, anger?

"I respect your choice. "That's true. "Everyone has the right to choose the path he wants, whether it's a relationship or a career. Yan Qixing regards revenge as his life's work, so he gives up everything and chooses revenge, while you are the opposite of him, giving up revenge and choosing feelings. In fact, there is no question of right or wrong, it is a matter of choice, just look at what is most important in his heart. ”

Zhao Min asked me, "What about you, I know you don't like me mentioning you, but I really want to know, what is most important to you?"

I don't want to answer, but there is something to be revealed, someone to listen to me.

"It's a complicated question. I smiled wryly. "To be honest, I didn't know that before that. I used to think that feelings were the most important thing to me, so I gave up my principles to forgive him for everything he did to me, and as long as I could be with him, I could do nothing. But I was wrong, not just because he deceived me and used me. I'll admit that it hurts me a lot. But the biggest reason is that I can't pass my own level, which I believe Yan Qixing and Fu Yong can see more clearly than me, even if he doesn't deceive me and use me, we will eventually break up. Because I can't change him, he can't change me, and there's nothing I can do to accommodate each other. What is most important to me? After leaving Yan Qixing, I realized that it was not a relationship or a career, I thought that conscience was the most important thing to me, and no matter what choice I made, I had to be worthy of my conscience. Although this conscience is not necessarily the standard of good and evil, it is the bottom line of my life, and if I cross this bottom line, I will suffer, and the people around me will also suffer. ”

"I don't quite understand what you're talking about. Zhao Min thought thoughtfully. "What is the principle and what is the bottom line? But I know my conscience, you marry Liu Che and be an enemy of your former husband, so you are worthy of your conscience?"

"This question has also bothered me for a long time, because it really has a tendency to turn into hate because of love. And I don't deny that there is indeed such a dark psychology. But it's not the deciding factor...... If Yan Qixing and I weren't husband and wife, what would you think would happen to me?" I asked her, and I asked myself.

Zhao Min was stunned, and said in a deep voice: "You don't need to choose, you must help Liu Che." ”

"It doesn't matter if I'm married to him or not, whether I'm the queen of the Han Dynasty or not. Because there is no question of choice at all, but it is taken for granted. I added. That's what I came to after thinking about it. Moreover, I don't want to be a queen, and when this is over, I will choose to leave. ”

Zhao Min was stunned: "If that's the case, aren't you deceiving Liu Che? Aren't you violating your conscience?"

"As I said, my conscience is not the standard of good and evil, but only my own. I laughed self-deprecatingly. "There is no absolute good or absolute evil in human nature, and my standards are only so high. In the case of not posing a major harm, I allow myself to tell a small lie and make a small mistake, of course, I dare not guarantee that a small lie will not become a big lie, and a small mistake will not cause a big disaster. I'm talking about my intentions. Hum...... Sounds hypocritical, doesn't it? But it can't be helped, that's what I really mean. ”

Moreover, this lie will definitely not cause harm to Liu Che! Because it will become an absolute non-existence with my departure.

Zhao Min is really a smart girl, and she quickly thought of another question: "If you will leave in the end, why don't you leave now?

"Two reasons. I held out two fingers. I had never mentioned these thoughts to anyone, and I was willing to tell them somehow, or what I hoped for in my heart.

"First, I am responsible for most of this war, and I cannot sit on the sidelines. Second, although I don't know the ending, I don't want Yan Qixing's revenge to succeed. I wanted to do my best to stop him from seeing how wrong it was to wage a war for personal vendettas. ”

"I'm even more confused. Zhao Min scoffed at my claims. "If you don't want your life to be ruined, why don't you fulfill him? ”

"He's not going to make it. I said coldly.

"How do you know?" she asked me.

"I just know. "I don't want to say any more. If it weren't for Hetian Yu, I would have tried to stop this war, but I don't need to do it now, no matter how many people die, as long as I go back, none of this will happen. The reason why he threw all his strength into the confrontation was that he hoped that Yan Qixing would see that revenge was a wrong decision, and he gave everything he could, but in the end it was just a void. Of course, the premise must be a Han court victory.

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Min said, "Do you know why I told you about my sister?"

I shook my head.

"Because I want you to know that a man who can be loved by you, me, and my sister, and three outstanding women, must have a distinctive character. Zhao Min's eyes were full of unspeakable sadness. "You've been married to him for so long, do you really know if he really loves you?"

"What do you want to say?" I watched, my eyes pricked up.

"What ......if," she hesitated, apparently avoiding something. "You, never thought that he was cheating on you?"

I said, "He's really lying to me, he's been using me from beginning to end, and I already knew that." She seemed to mean something else.

"I mean......" she swallowed and smiled wryly. "yes, that's what he really deceived you. ”

"What do you mean by that?" I stood up, was there anything else I didn't know?

She also stood up and said, "It's getting late, it's time for me to take my leave." ”

After walking a few steps away from me, he suddenly turned around and said, "He has a last resort, why don't you go to the Tingwei Mansion to check the files of all the cases handled by Yan Qixing?"

I was stunned, this sound familiar, as if Fuyong had mentioned it.

"Hey, you can make it clear before you go. "My name is Zhao Min.

She turned back and said bitterly, "I can't disobey my master. ”

I had no choice but to watch her leave Liu Yang.
