The next day, the Pioneer Battalion barracks ......

The clouds were thick, the melancholy was heavy, the soldiers in the camp were calm, and the gloomy atmosphere filled the surroundings of the school grounds, which seemed to be overflowing with infinite sadness and decline. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info war horses are in groups, crying constantly, and the cold soldiers are ironclad, and they are rattling. The bell of death is ringing intermittently, and prayers are being prayed for the rest of the deceased......

In front of Zhao Zichuan's camp, the firewood was piled up on an elevated platform, and Li Yuru's body was lying on it. With a quiet face and a gentle smile, the elegance of the "Hibiscus Woman" is still in my eyes. It's just that this time I said goodbye to the living and was about to pass away, maybe there were too many reluctances and regrets in my heart, but what Li Yuru took away was more than just grief......

Zhao Zichuan and other battalion officers and soldiers stood in front of the wooden pile, their eyes were extremely sad. Zhao Zichuan stood in front of him with a torch in his hand, his eyes were even more solemn, and he was about to personally send his deceased wife on the road, Zhao Zichuan felt a faint pain in his heart......

"Sister-in-law ......" From last night to now, Su Jia has been crying, she is very self-contained, and she has not been able to protect Li Yuru, even if she tried her best.

Xiao Tian didn't say anything, stood beside Su Jia, gently grabbed Su Jia's shoulder, and accompanied her to share the pain in her worries.

"Woo......" Su Jia couldn't hold back the tears in the corners of her eyes, and lay in Xiao Tian's arms and cried secretly - Su Jia, who was usually strong, also shed tears of grief at this time.

"I'm really useless, I can't protect my sister-in-law......" Tang Zhan was on the side, and he also gritted his teeth and said sadly, "I am a dignified pioneer general, but I can't save the lives of my relatives and friends, what am I ...... to be" Saying, Tang Zhan clenched his fists and kept venting the resentment in his heart.

"Blame me......" Xiao Tian gently hugged Su Jia and said to Tang Zhan beside him, "If I were in Xiangyang, I obeyed your orders from Brother Tang Zhan and intercepted and killed Wuliang Torodo, there would be no current result......

"It's not your fault...... Tang Zhan shook his head lightly and added, "It's my fault, it was my carelessness at that time that I let Wuliang Tuoduo go in Xiangyang...... Jing'er is right, Wuliang Tuoduo is our henchman, and now that he has killed Yuru's sister-in-law, we will never let him go when we meet next time-"

"I'm going to break him to pieces!-" Xiao Tian said resentfully......

Not only the soldiers of the pioneer battalion, but also the disciples of the Emei faction also "said goodbye" in front of Li Yuru's body. Among them, Qingxue cried the most sadly, as the sister with the most special relationship with Li Yuru, seeing the cremation of her sister with her own eyes, Qingxue's heart was extremely painful.

"Miss Li...... Miss Li ...... "Qingxue was sad for a while and didn't know how to speak, but she kept chattering sadly on the side.

Aojing Shitai saw it, and his eyes were misty: "We used to treat you like that, but you didn't care about your past suspicions, not only helped Hua Ling and Qingxue, but also saved me and saved the life of the Emei faction, and we Emei faction all owe Miss Li a favor to you......"

"......Uhh Woo ah...... "An An was still crying on the side, knowing that her mother was about to pass away, An An was extremely sad.

Zhao Zichuan hugged his son and handed it to Yang Xiaofei and said, "Xiaofei, help me take care of An An, I will personally send Yuru on the road...... I'm afraid that An An will be even more sad and sad when she sees her mother leave......"

Yang Xiaofei took the child, nodded softly and said, "Well, leave it to me......"

"......Uhh Woo ah......" Yang Xiaofei kept comforting the child, but An An still cried, and his eyes kept looking in the direction of his mother's body......

Zhao Zichuan came to the wooden pile with a torch in his hand, and finally it was time to send the deceased on the road...... "Yuru, this is the last time I look at you like this......" Zhao Zichuan looked at the peaceful body of his wife, and said silently, "I was really stupid, I quarreled with you every day, and contradicted you every day, but I didn't know that I was the happiest at that time...... Now that you are at rest, and finally stop arguing with you, I can't be happy anymore...... You're right, becoming husband and wife in this life is a blessing that we cultivated in our previous life, but unfortunately the good times are too short, only two years...... You are so cruel, leave me and the child alone, I am really stupid and useless, and I have no ability to protect you...... When you come to heaven, I hope you lose your temper every day, and it is useless to scold me for being a fool, and I may feel better in my heart...... If there is an afterlife, if we can meet, I will not marry you in the next life......"

Zhao Zichuan said too many testimonials in front of his wife's body, all of which were nicknames between husband and wife, without any words of grief and indignation. But the more such words are said, the more painful it is to hear, Xiao Tian and the others heard it behind their backs, and their hearts were even more entangled and sad......

"That's it, lest you hate me again......" Zhao Zichuan looked at his wife with a smile, but there were bitter words in his heart, but in the end, it was inevitable to part, Zhao Zichuan retracted his expression, and said silently, "Let's go, let my husband personally give you a ride......"

After speaking, Zhao Zichuan torch lit the pyre......

The fire spread rapidly, and the raging fire soon surrounded Li Yuru's body. Looking at his wife's beautiful face for the last time in the firelight, Zhao Zichuan gritted his teeth and grieved in his heart.

"Woo-ah-woo-" Watching her mother gradually disappear in the firelight, An An let out the most heart-wrenching cry......

"Woo......" Su Jia was also crying, lying in Xiao Tian's arms, not daring to look at Li Yuru being incinerated by fire.

"Woo......" Murong Ying also stood silently in tears alone, standing beside her brother Murong Fei.

Murong Fei and Nangong Jun watched Li Yu return to the sky like a soul, and the two brothers were also resentful that they couldn't rush back that night to save people......

Zhao Zichuan was still standing at the front, watching the fire and green smoke take away Li Yuru's soul, Zhao Zichuan swore in his heart: "Yuru, don't worry, I will definitely avenge the enmity between you and the eldest brother-Wuliang Tuoduo, if you kill my wife and eldest brother, I will definitely personally cut your blood and use your head to sacrifice the soul of my deceased wife and brother in the sky!"

The fire burned more and more, and in the end, Li Yuru was completely invisible......

The officers and men in the army were still silently sad, leaving only An An's miserable and sad crying, lingering in the cold and empty barracks and school grounds for a long time, which made people feel sad......

At noon, in the position on the outskirts of Bianliang, an army was slowly marching......

"A letter from the pioneer battalion?" Zhu Yuanzhang got the news from the soldiers of the vanguard army and couldn't help asking.

"Yes, Your Majesty—" the soldier continued, "General Tang Zhan asks the Emperor to send this letter to the Army Division......

It seems that Tang Zhan has already sent a letter to tell Lu Jing, who was with Zhu Yuanzhang, about the news of the pioneer camp.

"I know, you go down first......" Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers who sent the message to leave.

"Yes, Your Majesty—" The soldier replied and quickly left the army......

Zhu Yuanzhang took his cronies, accompanied by Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, to the station near Bianliang, intending to negotiate with the envoys of Bianliang. The day before yesterday, he had sent a letter to Bianliang Taishou Zuo Junbi, and Zuo Junbi also agreed to negotiate, and the time was tonight. And Lu Jing of the pioneer battalion has accompanied her all the way here, and she still knows nothing about the turmoil that happened in the pioneer camp last night, so it seems that the content of the letter sent by the soldiers of the pioneer battalion today can be imagined......

"Your Majesty, the garrison has arrived-" Chang Yuchun followed Zhu Yuanzhang's side, always reporting on the military situation.

"Well, well, it's pretty good here, not only is it very close to Bianliang, but the troops can advance or retreat, in case something happens, you can deal with it at any time......" Zhu Yuanzhang said casually, and then said, "Commander of the army, after an hour of garrison, come to my camp to discuss the military, and negotiate with Bianliang Taishou tonight, we have to make some arrangements in advance......

"Yes, Your Majesty—" Chang Yuchun obeyed the order.

"Oh, by the way......" Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have something to say, handed the letter in his hand to Chang Yuchun, and said casually, "This is a letter sent by General Chang's vanguard army, saying that it is for the army division...... You give it to her for me, say that it was given to her by General Tang Zhan. If I send it in person, I'm afraid the army division will have something to think about......" Zhu Yuanzhang's tone changed slightly.

However, Chang Yuchun didn't pay attention, but usually took the letter and ordered: "Obey, the emperor-"

Zhu Yuanzhang made a gesture and ignored this matter......

Arriving at the station, the army quickly began to set up camp and prepare to welcome Zuo Junbi tonight......

After garrisoning, Lu Jing also set up her own tent and followed Lu Jing from the pioneer camp, only Lu Jing herself. While thinking about how to negotiate with Zuo Junbi, and beware of what Zhu Yuanzhang had for him, Lu Jing didn't talk to anyone along the way, nor did he laugh, and he had a cold and dead expression throughout the whole process, as if he was going to attend the funeral of his relatives, but under the cold expression, there was more seriousness and caution......

"Army Division-" Just as Lu Jing was simply packing up her things in the camp, a voice suddenly sounded outside the tent door.

Lu Jing didn't reply immediately, but just turned around - the person who came turned out to be Chang Yuchun.

"General Chang?" Finally, Lu Jing opened her mouth and said the first sentence along the way, her voice was slightly hoarse, like a sad and bitter old woman.

"Hmph, I finally spoke......" Chang Yuchun saw Lu Jing's serious face, and as a general of the first army, he relaxed and joked, "It turns out that in the pioneer camp, listening to General Tang Zhan, they said that the army division has always loved to laugh and can often amuse the soldiers in the army." Who knew that along the way, the military advisor not only did not smile, but even did not say a word, as if he had encountered a funeral...... Even the emperor sometimes said that the army division came all the way without saying a word or offering a single strategy, and he didn't even laugh, just like a living dead......"

"The emperor will also joke, then the general is really invisible" Lu Jing couldn't help but make a joke, but his expression was still serious, and there was no trace ......of a smile, "General Chang suddenly came to the tent of the last general, it shouldn't be just for a joke......" Lu Jing asked cautiously in the "joke".

Chang Yuchun nodded, his "attitude" towards Lu Jing was not bad: "Well, to be serious-a letter was sent from the pioneer camp just now, saying that General Tang Zhan sent someone to hand it over to you...... Take it for yourself, neither the emperor nor I have seen it, you can rest assured......"

"Letter?" Lu Jing couldn't help but wonder, she couldn't imagine what news Tang Zhan would send to her at this time, and said secretly in her heart, "Is there something urgent? There is something wrong in the army...... No, I'm following Zhu Yuanzhang now, just as an entourage general, if there is really a sudden change in the army, it is more reasonable for him to send a letter directly to Zhu Yuanzhang or General Chang Yuchun, then what is the matter......"

With countless doubts, Lu Jing stepped forward to take the letter and opened it directly in front of Chang Yuchun......

"This ......" Lu Jing's eyes widened, and she seemed surprised and unacceptable by the content of the letter.

"What's the matter, what's on the letter?" Chang Yuchun looked at Lu Jing's surprised eyes and couldn't help asking, "Your vanguard army is also a subordinate of General Ben, so it shouldn't be too much to let General Ben know......

Lu Jing was surprised for a moment, then retracted her expression, and said with a serious face: "General Huichang, it's just a trivial matter...... said that last night, General Zhao Zichuan and General Nangong Murong went to General Chang's camp to mobilize cavalry soldiers and horses. Because General Chang is not here, so I said something, it's not a big deal......" Lu Jing held the letter in his arms, obviously deliberately making up a lie that seemed to be true - Zhao Zichuan and they did go to Chang Yuchun's camp last night, and Chang Yuchun happened to be absent.

"It's really nothing big?" Chang Yuchun asked with some "perseverance".

"Of course," Lu Jing continued, "General Chang, do you think that if there is really something important, wouldn't it be more reasonable to know that the last general will follow the emperor and General Chang together, and write directly to the emperor or General Chang?"

"That's ...... to say" Chang Yuchun was not suspicious, and nodded in response.

"Moreover, at the end of the pioneer battalion, they will ask me about everything, and when I am suddenly gone, they are naturally not used to it, so they just write to say hello...... Lu Jing continued.

Chang Yuchun also gradually believed Lu Jing's words, and no longer doubted: "That's right, after all, you have made great contributions to the vanguard army, and they all trust you......"

"May I ask General Chang if there is anything else?" Lu Jing continued.

"Oh......" Chang Yuchun remembered something important, and added, "The emperor has an order, in an hour, the generals will go to the main camp to discuss countermeasures for tonight's negotiations, and you are among them." ”

"The last general knows, General Xie Chang-" Lu Jing nodded slightly, and gave Chang Yuchun a polite sentence.

"Hmm......" Chang Yuchun nodded, and then left the camp.

Lu Jing watched Chang Yuchun leave, but she always kept the letter in her hand......

After a long time, Lu Jing's hands gradually clenched, and the letters in her hands trembled more and more...... Suddenly, on Lu Jing's seemingly cold cheeks, two scarred tears were left......

"Sister-in-law......" Lu Jing said silently - sure enough, the content of the letter was the news of Li Yuru's death. Hearing the news of Li Yuru's murder, Lu Jing's heart was like a knife, and she had a nervous breakdown for a while......

Lu Jing was the only one in the camp, Lu Jing choked up and cried "boldly", and kept repeating the content in her heart, Lu Jing felt remorse in her heart: "If I hadn't left and stayed in the camp with the fools, I wouldn't have ...... It won't ...... will not ......" It seems that Lu Jing is remorseful that Li Yuru was killed on the night she was not able to accompany her.

"Wuliang Tuoduo......" wiped away her tears slightly, Lu Jing's eyes turned sad to angry, and she clenched her hands and said, "I will definitely not let you go, I swear to sacrifice your blood to the souls of my sister-in-law and eldest brother Zijin!"

Thinking about it, Lu Jing faintly buried a blood oath in her heart......

An hour later, all the generals in the army gathered in Zhu Yuanzhang's tent to discuss the negotiation with Zuo Junbi tonight......

Zhu Yuanzhang was in the middle of the tent, and there were more close generals such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun beside him, who expressed their opinions on tonight's negotiations. And Lu Jing, who was particularly "concerned" by Zhu Yuanzhang, stood silently in an inconspicuous corner alone, just like in the past few days, without saying a word and with a cold expression......

"What if Zuo Junbi agrees to surrender on the surface, but goes back on his word after going back?" Things seemed to have reached the critical point, and Xu Da was afraid that Zuo Junbi would have the intention of rebelling, so he couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"So the negotiation must be foolproof, and he must be made to surrender willingly, and sacrifice the soldiers and horses in the city......" Zhu Yuanzhang hit the nail on the head, "There are only success and failure in this negotiation, and the result must be clear and not ambiguous...... Either fight or fall, the result must be well understood, the initiative must be firmly in our hands, and we cannot be led by the nose by the other party......"

"Who does the emperor mean to send to be the representative of tonight's negotiations?" Chang Yuchun asked on the side.

"Rong Zhen think about it, this matter can't ......be sloppy," Zhu Yuanzhang said, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Lu Jing's side.

Lu Jing didn't look at Zhu Yuanzhang squarely, she seemed to have something on her mind, and her expression was the same as before, cold and sad...... (To be continued.) )
