One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 201
In the Hou Mansion, the mistress is seriously ill, and the daily affairs of the East Courtyard are still organized in an orderly manner without any chaos.The Imperial Physician is here for a consultation, although His Majesty told him to cure Mrs. Hou, but unfortunately she is terminally ill and unable to recover.

The imperial physician was telling Hou Shizi that Mrs. Dingyuanhou was done for the past two days, so there was no need to worry about it, and then she went back to the palace to report to His Majesty.

Emperor Feng Yuan was also in poor health, so he could only send the prince and princess to visit.After all, she is a biological aunt, and the Crown Princess wanted to stay in the Hou Mansion to take care of her cousin Yuan Zhao's illness, but was declined by the Prince Hou on the grounds of "considering the fate of the royal family".

It is better to believe in luck than to believe in nothing.

There is an example to learn from, the injury of Feng Wu, the son of King Duan, is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and it is impossible to return to Duanzhou, for fear that his injury will not withstand the bumps and die on the way.He is now unconscious, and his mother, Princess Duan, is on her way.

Even the common people know about the hard news about the princess of Anping, let alone the royal family?Jiang Lingyu, the Crown Princess, did not dare to ignore any matter involving the royal family, so she had to let it go.

With the efforts of the doctor and the medical officers, Jiang woke up and had the energy to chat with the princess.Jiang Lingyu knew that she didn't have much time, and she must have a lot of things to explain to her family, so she didn't dare to disturb her, so she went back to the house after chatting a few words.

"Mother..." In the inner room of the east courtyard, Hou Shizi knelt in front of the couch with a gloomy expression.

"My illness has been going on for a long time, and it has nothing to do with this matter. You don't have to worry about it." Seeing his ashamed face, Jiang comforted him, "Forcing Taifu Zhao to leave is the last thing I can do for Zhao'er..."

Hou Shizi listened with his head bowed, tears streaming down his face.

It turned out that the day Mrs. Zhao came here happened to be the most energetic day for Mrs. Jiang.She knew that time was running out, so she wanted to take the opportunity to go out for a walk and visit the Hou Mansion again.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Taifu Zhao trying to break into the house to find A Zhao's whereabouts.

Where Yuan Zhao went, Shizi Zhonghe has already reported to her.Seeing that Guan Shi could not restrain him, and he was full of hostility towards his daughter, he had a plan.

Before she came forward to negotiate with Taifu Zhao, she had asked Shanhu to seek help from the princess after she fainted; at the same time, she informed Hou Shizi and asked him to seize the opportunity to sue Taifu Zhao.

This dynasty lacks good generals, but if there is a glimmer of hope, Emperor Feng Yuan, who was born as a martial artist, will definitely not miss it.

Due to the opposition of Zhao Taifu and other civil servants, he has made a concession and let Yuan Zhao take charge of the army in the name of the eighth prince.In the end, Grand Tutor Zhao still refused to let him go, insisting on exposing His Majesty's scheme and hitting him in the face, which emperor would bear it?
As soon as Hou Shizi filed a lawsuit, Emperor Feng Yuan was in his arms.

But Taifu Zhao is the emperor's teacher after all, the emperor will not execute him easily, expelling him from the capital to prevent him from interfering in the government is the greatest punishment.

Unless he seeks his own death and goes back to the countryside to speak ill of the emperor...

"Since he was expelled from the capital, you don't have to pursue it any longer unless he comes back." Mrs. Jiang warned, "Teacher Zhao is gone, Zhong He, you have to be careful about Song Jijiu in the future..."

If Taifu Zhao is a mad dog that bites people everywhere, then Song Jijiu is definitely a silent poisonous snake that bites people when they are not prepared.

"Zhaoer was taught by her father since she was a child, and it is common for her to see the life and death of guards and servants around her. It is inevitable that she will be notorious for being unreasonable. But she is sincere and true to her relatives, Zhonghe," Jiang looked at the second son. ,road,
"I hope that your brother and sister will work together and advance hand in hand in the future, and don't let down the hard work of your parents."

"Mother, don't worry, my son will be of one mind and one mind with Ah Zhao, and we will be the same in this life." Hou Shizi promised with tears, "Mother don't have to worry, just rest well, and I believe that A Zhao will send back news soon. Wait for her to bring father back , our family can be reunited..."

"Okay, okay." When mentioning Xixing's daughter, Jiang couldn't help but worry about her.

However, she knew she couldn't wait.

"Sister? Sister—"

Outside, the Eldest Princess Feng just heard the news today, and rushed back to the Hou Mansion in a panic without even combing her hair.When she saw Jiang Shi who was too thin to be human, Feng Shi who came to the bed couldn't help crying.

……

Let's talk about the Pingxi Army, all three thousand are cavalry, traveling hundreds of miles a day, and reaching Xishan at the fastest marching speed.

On the way, they encountered stragglers in twos and threes from time to time, all under Bei Yueli's command.After leaving the main general, these people were not knowing where to go, they were recruited into the army by the Pingxi Army, and they walked to the Jinxi Camp.

However, Yuan Zhao led his people to arrive at Xishan ahead of schedule, and it took two days for the train from Lingchuan to arrive.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the Hou Mansion and the three thousand cavalry carried dry food for a few days.At the Xishan pass, I met Miss Qu and others and got another batch of supplies, saying that her father had prepared them, so I could temporarily relieve the urgent need.

Yuan Zhao knew in his heart that it was impossible to wait for the convoy to arrive. If there was not enough food, he could grab it, as her father taught.

"Eight days ago, General Beiyue took the remaining hundreds of people to escape into Duanling. Duanling is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The one who attacked him was a Daqi general named Lu Tu. Waiting for an opportunity under Broken Ridge..."

The scout reported.

The so-called waiting for an opportunity, of course, is that the people on the Broken Ridge run out of food, and they are too hungry to move and let others slaughter them?
"How many hundred are left?" The third brother was too anxious, Yuan Zhao frowned, "The rest are dead?"

"Dead or scattered, less than a thousand people."

"Lu Tu is the son of Duke Lu of Great Qi. He has little wisdom but no great strategy. He is good at using the terrain to ambush the enemy." You Changgeng told Yuan Zhao, "But he is very skilled and has a delicate mind. There must be ambushes at the pass to intercept our reinforcements. "

Moreover, when Lu suddenly came, his father, Duke Lu's army must not be far away.

The Duke of Lu and the Marquis of Dingyuan have fought for decades, but they have not won once.Now knowing that Marquis Dingyuan was seriously ill before the battle, he will definitely not miss the opportunity to capture the opponent's father and son.

Therefore, she not only had to cross the pass and enter Duanling to save her third brother, but also rushed to Jinxi to relieve her father, and she couldn't wait here.

But the solitary peaks on both sides of the pass were about three miles long, and the third brother wanted to get through by force, but he fell here. She couldn't make the same mistake.

"Major General," Yuan Xiong suggested, "Why don't you let Vanguard lead fifty elite troops to attack at night tonight!"

Compared with Daqi's [-] army, the number of [-] cavalry is not much, and he is the only lieutenant appointed by the court.Those who have combat experience and come here specially to assist her, the "eighth prince", have the most say.

"No!" The generals who fell from Beiyueli's army and were picked up by the Pingxi army and accompanied them all the way objected, "Our general sent two hundred elite soldiers to take turns to fight, but they were still defeated and suffered countless casualties. It won't work!"

The mountain road is narrow, and there are ambushes up and down, and Nalutu's ambushes have archers, stones, and all kinds of sharpened bamboo poles, wooden sticks and other weapons, which are very dangerous.

"That's your general's incompetence!" Yuan Xiong said contemptuously.

"Vice General Yuan must have experienced hundreds of battles and has a lot of experience." Before the general could refute, Yuan Zhao glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty asked you to be a lieutenant general under this general's command, it seems too condescending."

"The last general dare not dare!" Yuan Xiong is not stupid, and immediately apologized when he noticed her displeasure. Have a good plan?"

To be honest, asking him to serve as a lieutenant for a woman is really a shame.

What the hell, is Your Majesty in a hurry?Is the imperial court really out of generals? !The imperial decree clearly stated the eighth prince, but the person who announced the decree said it was a princess.

he:"……"

I always feel that this will be his last expedition, the kind that never returns.
