Abandoned woman's glory

Chapter 196

Offer up the city and surrender.

When these words were uttered, a gust of biting cold wind blew by, blowing my long hair and his long hair into the air, with the black hair fluttering, there was a little cold star in the eyes of both of them.

He slowly said: "The Empress Dowager wants Li Jun to surrender? To whom?"

"The Nangong family. Ask Li Jun to hand over the seal of Fengxiang City to Nangong Mizhen. You must hand it over to him, and you can only give it to him!"

There was a smile in Yu He's eyes, and he seemed to nod his head slightly, but he said again: "But, Li Jun may not agree."

I frowned slightly.

Indeed, Li Junnai is the crown prince and grand tutor. He devoted himself to his duties, obeyed the public, and restrained himself. Even if he was killed, he would not be able to do such a crime as dedicating the city to surrender. What's more, it was me who made this request, and it was even more impossible for him to agree easily.I thought for a while and said, "Mr. Yu He, please tell Li Jun that in this extraordinary time, extraordinary means must be used to break the siege of the White Tiger Army. I advise him to do it himself."

"What if he insists on refusing?"

"If he insists on refusing—" I took a long breath: "Sir, you are highly skilled in martial arts, and you can kill him with a single gesture. You can replace him!"

Yu He glanced at me, was silent for a long time, nodded and said: "I understand."

After finishing speaking, he looked at me again: "With this message, do you want to bring the little prince back to the Queen Mother?"

"..."

I gritted my teeth and shook my head.

Yu He's expression froze slightly.

"Now is not the time. When Mister arrives in Fengxiang, we must stop him. Don't make him rush to act. As long as you are protecting Fengxiang and don't let Shui Xunyou get close to the child easily, I will feel relieved."

Yu He immediately understood that the "he" I meant was the ghost face, and when he looked at me, there was an unexpected appreciation in his calm eyes, he nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Yes. "

After saying this word, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, got up and left, I looked at his back, and suddenly said: "Mr. Ji——"

This was the first time I called him by his surname instead of his nickname, Yu He immediately stopped and looked back at me.

I looked into his eyes and said solemnly: "I know that Mr. Ji is an expert in Guigu, with a romantic style, a mastery of swordsmanship, excellent martial arts, and extraordinary knowledge. He is an unmatched general in the world. In the future If you succeed, Mr. Ji will be the Great General of Hussars in our court, in charge of the soldiers and horses in the world, no one will be replaced by hereditary successors, and the honor will be honored for all generations!"

Yu He looked at me, and there was a slight ripple in those calm lake-like eyes.

From the conversation Mr. Guigu had with him that night, I knew Yu He's plan. It was his heart's wish to be a general and a prime minister. I have kept him for so many years in the hope that he can meet the Ming Lord, and I only hope that I am a good tree that he is willing to choose.

Yu He looked at me silently. After a long time, he turned around slowly, shook his clothes and looked solemn, and fell to the ground with his long body——

"Thank you Queen Mother!"

When he got up slowly and straightened up and looked at me, there was a faint smile in his eyes, as if he had decided something like me at this moment.

And this worship also predestined many things for the future of the Central Plains.

With a wave of his sleeves, he turned and left without looking back.

When his back disappeared from my eyes, I sat back slowly, and when I recovered some strength, I walked out of the garden.Ling Si and Shi Shi stood at the door, and when they saw me coming out, they hurried forward and followed me cautiously, while I walked out, I said, "Call Ling Yi and the others here!"

"Yes!"

There was no hindrance along the way, all the way to the door of the house where I was training before, Ling Yi and the others had all appeared in front of me, bowed down and said: "See the Queen Mother."

I walked up to them and ordered: "Ling Si and Shi Yi continue to follow Ben Gong's orders. Ling Yi, you lead the rest of the people and immediately rush to station outside Fengxiang City!"

Ling Yi looked at me with some doubts: "I don't know the Queen Mother—"

"Fengxiang City will soon fall into the hands of the Xuantie Army. At that time, Shui Xunyou will definitely send messengers to the camp to report. This palace wants you to block all the messengers from Fengxiang City, regardless of their identities, they will be killed without mercy!"

This is the first time I issued a kill order, everyone seems to be taken aback, staring at me with wide eyes, Ling Yi reacted quickly, and immediately knelt down on one knee: "Yes!"

Everyone else immediately bowed to the ground.

"Remember!" I took a step forward, looked down at them, and said in a deep voice, "If anyone leaves Fengxiang to deliver a message, I will destroy your nine clans!"

"Subordinates lead!"

Back in unison, these people immediately got up and turned to leave. Looking at their backs going away, I felt a little unevenness in my breath. I supported myself by the door frame, and Ling Si and the others hurried forward.

"The Queen Mother..."

Maybe it was because of my stern voice just now, they have never seen me like this before, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes, or Ling Shiyi thought it over and over again before asking softly: "I don't know why the Queen Mother left us two. Will?"

"These days, I will stay in Ruyiju to recuperate."

"what?"

They probably didn't expect that after I made the decree just now, I thought I would take action immediately, but I was just recuperating in Ruyiju. Both of them looked at me with wide eyes in surprise. I didn't explain anything, and continued: "The two God, you guys should also take a good rest, there is still a big thing to do for the person I am waiting for."

The two looked at each other, and Ling Si looked at me: "The Queen Mother—who are you waiting for?"

I smiled lightly and didn't speak.

In the next few days, I really stayed in Ruyiju, recuperating with peace of mind. Liang Chengxin's medical skills really lived up to his reputation, and soon made me recover more than half, and he also used diet therapy to treat my stubborn diseases in the body.

Gradually, I can move freely, and I also try to take a slow walk in Ruyiju, which can be regarded as the purpose of recovery.

One day, I was walking alone on a secluded path. I looked at a fine house in front of me. The rich door was half-closed. There was a coughing sound coming from inside. I heard it carefully. It seemed to be Young Master Ling. Sure enough, it was him, sitting on a chair reading a book.

He looked up and saw me, smiled and waved, and I walked in.

"Did you catch a cold?"

"Well, no. The arrow wound hurt my heart after all, and Chengxin has been supporting my heart all these years," he said with a faint smile, "It only happens when it's cold, but it's nothing on weekdays. It's just, Riding and archery is no longer possible, I can only read books and do some learning.”

"Oh." I looked at the booklet in his hand: "What are you looking at?"

""Emperor Fan"."

""Emperor Fan"?" I frowned slightly. The meaning of these two words is—the norm of the emperor. Who would dare to write such a text? How brave!
Seeing my question, Young Master Ling just smiled and said: "I found it from some books brought by Guigu, but it is said that this "Emperor Fan" was not made by Mr. Guigu, but Mr. Guigu admired it very much. by a stunning woman."

Could it be that the woman that Mr. Guigu admires is Mrs. Murong?
My heart sank slightly again. It seemed that Young Master Ling didn't know the relationship between the Ling family and the Murong family, so he could speak so easily. I didn't intend to reveal this matter, so I took the brochure he handed over to me. , casually flipped through it for a few times——the article is really majestic, the diction is concise and powerful, and there is no lack of beauty, all of which are necessary for the emperor to govern. !

After I finished reading the whole article, it had been a while, and when I looked up, I found that Ling Shao was looking at me with a smile, and said, "I thought that if you knew about the child, you would rush over to rescue him, but I didn't expect , you can be so calm."

Why don't I want to rescue him immediately, but can it be saved?

The child fell into the hands of Shui Xunyou and the others. One mistake is enough to make me regret for life, so I have to make arrangements for this matter to be foolproof before I can make a move.

So he said: "In a real war, it is not necessary to go to the battlefield to draw a knife and bleed. Sometimes, attacking the heart is the best strategy."

Ling Shao looked at me, smiled and nodded.

He suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, there is another sentence in the "Emperor Fan": If you don't teach people to fight, it means abandoning them. The little prince is going to be involved in such a fight at such a young age. In the future, greater responsibilities will fall on him, as the emperor, it should be so.”

emperor?I think he seems to be confused, the current Qinglong Emperor is Ling Shaoyu, the future emperor will naturally be Shaoyu's heir, how could it fall on my son's head?

Seeing my puzzled eyes, Young Master Ling just smiled and didn't speak.

But for some reason, I feel that there is something deep in his smile.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a strange wind outside, Ling Shao's expression changed, and he immediately said: "What's the matter?"

A voice from outside said in a low voice: "Someone broke into Ruyi Residence."

Ling Shao frowned slightly: "Have you caught it?"

"Not yet. She is a blond woman with strong martial arts and physical skills. She looks like someone from the Western Regions."

Blonde?People from the Western Regions?
Shut up!When I heard this, I hurriedly turned my head to look at Young Master Ling: "This man is here to look for me!"

Ling Shao glanced at me, seemed to understand something, nodded and said: "I see." After speaking, he stood up, walked to the door, and whispered something, the people outside the door immediately turned around After leaving, he came over and said, "You can go see the person you want to see."

With the deliberate guidance of Ruyi Juzhong's shadow guard, I just walked back to my room and sat down when the door was pushed open, a gust of fragrant wind blew in, and a slender figure appeared in front of me under the sun.

I raised my head, met those soft eyes, and smiled faintly: "Shui Mingji, long time no see."

Right in front of me is Guanguan——Shui Mingji. She is wearing a long fox fur dress, and the fluffy fur can't hide her exquisite curves. Her golden curly hair sways gently in the wind, shining with dazzling light. She is still beautiful. so dazzling.

She looked at me, raised her eyebrows lightly, as if surprised: "Are you waiting for me?"

"Waiting for a long time."

"How did you know I was coming to you?"

I smiled lightly and said: "Outside Fengxiang City, you once said that you owe me three things and that you will help me when I am in trouble. Now is when I am in trouble, and I believe that you, Miss Shui, will definitely show up. "

Shui Mingji looked at me and was silent for a while: "You seem to be a little different from the past."

"Oh?" I also looked at her: "Why is it different?"

She frowned slightly: "I can't tell, but you—" She seemed to be unable to tell. After looking at me for a long time, she finally gave up and changed the subject: "I know, your child was robbed by my sister." Gone, now in Fengxiang City, you wait for me to appear, do you want to ask me to take you to save your child?"

I looked at her and said: "Miss Shui is willing to show up, is she willing to accompany Bengong on this journey?"

"of course."

"However," I said with a smile, "I don't want to go to Fengxiang City this time. I don't know if Miss Shui is willing to go with me."

She looked at me with some doubts: "Aren't you going to Fengxiang? Then where are you going?"

"Longhu Gorge, the alliance camp."

Although Ling Si and Ling Shiyi knew that the time was urgent, they didn't expect that we would be on the road so soon. The two of them were in a hurry to prepare for the road.

And taking advantage of this time, I walked up to Young Master Ling and Liang Chengxin who had come to say goodbye.

Looking at such a pair of lovers, although they have gone through hardships, but they can stay together sincerely, which is indeed the happiest thing in the world. I smiled and said: "I hope the two of you will have smooth sailing in the future."

"Thank you."

I looked at Young Master Ling again: "What are your plans for the future?"

Ling Shao looked around and heard the bustling voices outside the gate. Obviously, the people coming and going from Ruyiju recently attracted the attention of Taozhou people. He laughed and said, "This place can't stay anymore. I plan to take Cheng Xin to the north, find a place where no one is around, and start everything from scratch."

Seeing the happy expression on Liang Chengxin's fair face, even the intoxicating smile in the dimples, I was slightly envious.

But——"It's not so easy for you to start everything from scratch."

"Of course I know," he smiled, and stretched out his hand to hold Liang Chengxin's hand: "I have made up my mind, since I want to leave, I must leave cleanly. From now on, Prince Qinglong will disappear completely, and there will be no Then there is the person 'Ling Shao'. I will take her last name and be a brand new person."

It seems that he wants to completely cut off from the past, not even this surname.

I looked at them: "Then what are you planning to do when you go to the north?"

Liang Chengxin's cheeks were flushed, he glanced at him, and said softly: "I still plan to serve the world and practice medicine to save people; as for him, he wants to open a museum to teach."

"Opening classes?"

"Yes," Ling Shao said, "I read a lot of books with Mr. Guigu, and I have gained a lot of knowledge. I have some new views on the way of the king."

He looked at me and suddenly smiled: "Maybe in the future, my students will be able to serve the imperial court. At that time, I hope Qinglong Kingdom has unified the Central Plains with your efforts, and the gift I gave you "Emperor Fan" can also be handed down forever."

Looking into his bright eyes, for some reason, a force slowly surged from my heart.

Yes, to unify the Central Plains, this is Chu Feng's unfinished wish, maybe - it's the only thing I can do for him.

I can!
At this time Ling Si came over and told me softly that the carriage was ready, I bowed my head and said goodbye to them, just as I turned to leave, Liang Chengxin suddenly called me: "Madam Chu, please stay."

I stopped and looked back at her, only to see that she took out a kit from her bosom and handed it to me: "I almost forgot about it. This precious pill, but the ghost face told me Serving Madam to take it, I see Madam’s trauma has almost healed, so you can decide when to take it.”

She said, looked up at me again, and said with a smile: "It's just a pity, Madam's celestial appearance, Cheng Xin has no way to see it with her own eyes."

I silently took the kit and was silent for a while.

Yuyan Pill, Mr. Guigu was entrusted by someone to refine this rare medicine for me—the medicine that can restore my appearance.

Can restore appearance...

I looked at the kit quietly, and after a while, I raised my head, smiled at Liang Chengxin and said, "Miss Liang, when a woman is the most beautiful, she is happy to be by her lover's side. The appearance of a person is the most enviable."

After finishing speaking, I smiled and nodded at them, then turned around and left without looking back.

Later, when I returned to Taozhou, Ruyiju was already empty.

I think this former Qinglong prince has put down everything and brought his beloved woman to the north, one hanging pot to help the world, one preaching and teaching. Even if we never meet again, I can vaguely imagine their life like a fairy couple. How enviable.

I also know that they don't want to be disturbed by anyone, so I kept silent about this and didn't tell anyone.

Later, this great Confucianist was indeed full of peaches and plums, and even his descendants became the mainstay of the school of kingly doctrine, providing many talents for the great cause of the unification of the Central Plains, and creating careers in the world.

Of course, these are things for later.

Leaving Taozhou, the carriage traveled westward, and the weather was getting colder and colder. From time to time, the cold wind lifted the curtains, and the eyes were full of snow.

It is naturally more difficult to walk in such a world of ice and snow.

A few flakes of snowflakes flew in with the wind and landed on the neckline, immediately brought a burst of coolness, I slowly opened my eyes, and met those soft eyes, Shui Mingji was sitting on the other side of the carriage, lost in thought looking at me.

"I don't understand."

"what?"

"Your child is in Fengxiang, why do you go west?" She looked at me thoughtfully: "Could it be that just because that child belongs to Ling Shaoyang, you hate him so much?"

My face turned slightly pale.

Until now, knowing many things in the past and the past that he carried, I do have a different view of him, but what he did to me that night is still a nightmare that I can't get rid of in my whole life.

The kind of pain that can penetrate into the bone marrow cannot be eliminated overnight.

But the child, after all, is a child, even if it is the product of an ugly rape, my blood still flows on his body.

However, there was a cold expression on my face: "It would be fine if such a wicked species were not around."

Sui Mingji looked at me with a complicated expression: "You, really hate him that much?"

"..."

Looking at my gloomy face, she suddenly seemed impulsive: "You know, actually—"

Before he could finish speaking, the carriage suddenly shook violently and stopped.

We almost fell down in the carriage, and I hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

The voice of Ling Shixi who was driving the car came from outside: "Queen Mother, someone is here!"

what?
I was startled, hurriedly moved to the door, lifted the heavy curtain and saw that in the snowstorm in front of me, I could vaguely see many figures in front of us driving towards us, causing bursts of snowflakes, and the sound of horseshoes echoed in the air. between valleys.

That is--
