Chapter 211 Husband and wife
The sound of drums is booming, and the sound of gongs is crisp.

"Boiling the beans burns the Osmunda, and the beans weep in the cauldron. They grow from the same root, so why is it too urgent to fry each other?" Wu Sheng brushed his long sleeves, his voice was high-pitched and vigorous, Xiao Sheng raised his eyebrows, his figure was cool and sad, and the two singing voices were mixed, The high one hits people's hearts directly, and the low one lingers in the ears, making people feel lost for a moment and feel hesitant and empty in their hearts.

Master Bao stood at the gate of the city, looked at the scene only fifty steps away, and sighed heavily. The owner of the theater troupe whispered beside him: "How...how did you know this princess."

"When she first went to the capital in the early years, she asked a friend to ask me to teach her how to change her face." Master Bao said in a low voice, "At that time, I only thought that she thought she was too beautiful and was afraid of being too conspicuous, so she did it. "

"She is afraid that others will recognize her," the host sighed, "I have also heard of her name. Aunt Su's name is known to everyone. I didn't expect that she has an even more surprising identity."

Master Bao nodded, watching Wu Changqiang pick up his spear, his face full of righteousness, Xiaosheng knelt down, and suddenly understood the purpose of Su Wanru's invitation to sing.

"Change the words in the second half." Master Bao said.

The owner was taken aback, looked at him and asked, "What's the matter, but the words are not written properly? Didn't she just ask for those two sentences, and we wrote them in."

"We are talking about the peace and prosperity of the family and the country." Master Bao frowned and said: "The princess means to be loyal to the Later Song Dynasty."

The owner's complexion changed, and he was so scared that he couldn't stand still, "I heard that she is very cruel, and she will kill if she says she will kill. She won't kill why when she gets angry, right?"

"Quickly change the words." Master Bao said, and found the master who wrote the script, and immediately changed the words in the second half.

Shen Zhan was listening to the music, but he had never heard of the knife in his hand, so he was going to kill all these people in the New Year's Eve.Marquis Deqing was arrested, and Xu Feng was also killed. These are all loose sands.

The wind was whistling all around, horses neighed, and swords and swords blew past. Suddenly, nearly a hundred people surrounded him without a sound. There were cavalry, infantry archers, and four or five people holding the ropes.

The crowd surrounded him and separated him from his soldiers.

With a glance, he saw Xu Feng sneering at him from outside the crowd, raised his hand across his neck, and shouted: "The kindness of the past is gone, Lord Hou, today either you die or I die!"

"It must be you," Shen Zhan looked at him, and suddenly rode his horse. The horse's head turned and stretched out, and hooked the nearest infantryman. The head was caught at his elbow, and his other hand fell on the opponent. overhead.

quack!

The infantry was like a ball of paper, he threw it away and knocked down a nearby cavalry.

Xu Feng's eyes were about to burst, he raised and lowered his hand!
The bridle rope was torn apart and circled around Shen Zhan's horse. He lifted the rein, and the horse jumped up and passed... The horse flew up and the others also left from the horse's back. Fly, the nearby cavalry fell to the ground.

The tripping rope failed, and the best opportunity was lost, but unwilling to give up, the archers on both sides retreated, and the arrows were fired at once, like a dense shower, Shen Zhan patted the horse's head tightly, and the horse turned around and rushed out of the crowd.

He was suspended in the air, the knife was spinning in his hand, and the arrow fell to the ground...

Xu Feng slashed open a soldier, squinting his eyes and staring at this side. After several rounds, they lost more than a dozen people, but Shen Zhan was not injured at all.

"Go!" Xu Feng shouted.

Those people swarmed up, and the offensive became more fierce.

Su Wanru stood on the tower, August turned her eyes wide to look for her father, while Lu Cheng walked back and forth on the side, "Ma'am, please go down and help me."

"Let me think about it." Su Wanru saw a knife brushing against Shen Zhan's waist. She was covered in cold sweat from fright, but she still said calmly, "He will be able to withstand it for a while."

Lu Cheng didn't speak, just picked the wall bricks and looked into the distance.

There are many people on the other side, three floors inside and three floors outside are built behind a human wall. Not only can people outside not see inside, they can't get in at all.

What's more, the battle was already fierce, and Qiu Rong and his men were almost at a loss.

"Why don't you add more people. The army of Chengdu Mansion is not far away, let them out." Lin Zhengping said, "Shen Zhan can't bear it even if he has three heads and six arms."

The gongs and drums below then sounded, and the second half began.

"Lang Jun... I don't want your wealth and glory, I just want you to be safe and healthy..." Changing to a female voice, the babbling singing made the man's nose sore.

"Kill!" The boys shouted in unison, but they didn't cover the gentle female voice.

Su Wanru stuffed her son into Lin Zhengping's arms and shouted, "Go! Let's save Shen Zhan."

If you want to save people, you don't just rush to save them, but don't care about anything. Shen Zhan doesn't need such a rescue method. If he just escapes or protects himself, he doesn't need them to save him at all. He can break out of the tight encirclement by himself. , and then just stay in the city and command.

She knew that Shen Zhan didn't want to save his life, he wanted to take Xu Feng's head. If the chief general is captured and the deputy general is dead, it doesn't matter whether he is 60 or [-], he will become a paper tiger.

"Wanwan." Lin Zhengping followed her down the tower, "Are you going too? What are you going to do? You don't know martial arts."

Su Wanru said: "I'm in command, who said martial arts must be required to go to the battlefield."

"Be careful." Lin Zhengping was quite frightened, but he knew that he couldn't stop what his cousin wanted to do, "Lu Cheng, take good care of your wife."

Lu Chengying said, with the knife on his shoulder, "I know!"

As he said, he followed Su Wanru down the stairs like flying, and heard Su Wanru say: "I will collect another three thousand, and you will only have the time for a cup of tea."

"It's already ready." Liu Qing shouted, "Just wait for Madam's order."

Liu Qing was supposed to stay behind, but now that Su Wanru is back, she naturally obeyed her orders.

"Let's go." Su Wanru strode out of the city, the gate of the city was still singing, stepping on the snow, facing the cold wind, her gorgeous costume was stained with dirt, but her charm remained intact. She passed by, and Mr. Bao and his host trembled. Stand aside.

"After singing, let's sing the first month to celebrate the new year." Su Wanru said: "After the war, there will be a big reward."

The host breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly wiped off his sweat, and replied, "Thank you, Princess Xie." This is not a play, it's a folk tune, they usually don't bother to sing it, but today he didn't dare to say no.Immediately answered.

Looking back on Mr. Bao, indeed, he felt that she was very unusual at the time. Although she was full of smiles, she acted vigorously and skillfully. If you look at it again, she is much more mature than before, and she is more and more intimidating by the superiors.

The soldiers came out like a hurricane, but they didn't directly enter the battlefield, but circled around the city wall. Under the eyes of everyone, they circled all the way to the waist and abdomen on the left, where Shen Zhan was trapped. She shouted: "Light the fire!" .”

Xu Feng saw her, although he was only fifty or sixty steps away, he dared not go over.

I saw them setting up a fire in place, and when the cauldron was set up, the smoke rose, and the smell of meat wafted away in a blink of an eye. Immediately, the soldiers of the Zhou army involuntarily looked towards this side, stopped their movements, and were caught by the opponent the next moment. He picked his belly open and fell to the ground dead.

Xu Feng was furious, "This trick again."

"It's a coup, you can try it a hundred times and never get tired of it." Su Wanru smiled, and added a bunch of spices to the soup, the strong aroma made her greedy.

Shen Zhan in the crowd accepted the challenge, looked sideways in his spare time, and saw his daughter-in-law standing in the crowd, holding a bowl and drinking soup carefully, with a relaxed look on her face, he couldn't help laughing, and shouted: "Daughter-in-law, give me Save a bowl!"

"Yes, there are." Su Wanru said, "Soldiers, who else wants to drink?"

No one spoke, but there were many eager eyes floating over.

"Turn your head away." Xu Feng shouted, "Whoever looks distracted will be dealt with by military law."

Everyone didn't dare to look any more, Su Wanru and Liu Qing exchanged glances, Liu Qing immediately led more than 1000 people to the back along the left side...

Xu Feng remembered that this was the first time he saw Su Wanru, but he had heard the name countless times. At this moment, this woman was sipping soup, while his man was surrounded by people, fighting desperately.

It's not worth it for Shen Zhan to work hard for such a woman!
"Mister." Su Wanru suddenly shouted at Shen Zhan: "The pavilion is not bad!"

Seeing that, Shen Zhan shook his hand, struck harder, his eyes turned red immediately, and killed several people in a row. He turned his head and coughed, and said, "Be serious!"

"Understood." Su Wanru looked back, and saw the flames in the barracks, bursts of noise came, and in a blink of an eye, a large area of ​​tents were burned, and she called Xu Feng with a smile, "General Xu, General Xu!"

Xu Feng turned his head with difficulty and glared at Su Wanru.

She smiled and pointed to the barracks, "Your house is on fire."

Only then did Xu Feng notice that his barracks had burned into a sea of ​​flames, and the people inside ran out in a panic. He shouted, "Don't panic, what are you panicking about!"

"Kill Shen Zhan!" Xu Feng shouted.

Su Wanru and Lu Cheng said, "Go ahead, it's up to you."

Lu Cheng clasped his fists and rushed over with two hundred cavalry, targeting Xu Feng directly.

Xu Feng didn't expect that they would also come to intercept and kill him, he hurriedly responded, the gongs and drums sounded again, and he sang "The New Year is in the first month."

I don't know where there was a low cry, first ups and downs, there were not many people, then it was full of crying, melancholy made people feel sad.

Today is the New Year, not only can't they even go home, they are still working hard here, that's all, and they can't even eat enough.

Smell the broth, but can't take half a mouthful, this feeling and taste, how can I not feel melancholy...

"Those who want to surrender, go to the pot and drink soup, it will be enough to keep you full!" Shen Zhan said: "The New Year's Eve dinner in the city is ready, just waiting for you to eat."

With a bang sound, when Shen Zhan slashed over with his knife, the man under his knife dropped his weapon, knelt down, and shouted: "Master Hou, I surrender, I surrender, I want to eat meat and drink soup..."

As he spoke, the man burst into tears.

All Zhou Bing looked at Shen Zhan, because they didn't believe that Shen Zhan would really accept them, instead of killing them, they would give them back to eat.

"Go, you fucking let me carry you there?" Shen Zhan said, kicking the man away, and then turned around to kill the next one. When the man saw his brother running around and crawling, his eyes widened. As soon as the light came on, he immediately dropped his weapon and said, "Master Hou, I... I also surrender, and I also surrender."

The two passed by, and some Zhou Jun along the way couldn't bear it and wanted to kill them. Song Jun, who appeared out of nowhere, actually protected them, and the two stumbled all the way to the meat pot safely. The bone soup was handed over, and the two looked straight at the eyes, and when they looked up, they found that it was the princess of the Later Song Dynasty.

"Thank you, thank you!" The two were incoherent, squatting on the side of the pot with a bowl in their hands, and began to eat in a huff. Someone handed over a bag of crispy rice, "I'll eat the rice in the evening, eat some crispy rice first."

The two soaked the crispy rice in the broth, and their mouths were full of oil.

Zhou Jun's eyes were red.

"Despicable." Xu Feng was furious, but being surrounded by people, he narrowly caught Lu Cheng with a knife, and he had no time to distract himself. When he came back to his senses, there were already more than a dozen people around the cauldron, squatting and eating meat. no more.

"Traitor!" Xu Feng shouted.

Su Wanru replied: "Although they are soldiers, they are also people and common people. They are traitors or not, as long as they are loyal to themselves."

On the right, the tune should be heard more clearly, so the crying became louder and louder. Some people lost their weapons and cried, and the descendants clamored to go home to serve their parents and never come out again.

And in the army, they were forced to run out by the growing fire, and it was too late to save some weapons and horses.

In Zhou Junzhong, the scene was chaotic.

Xu Feng became colder as he beat his heart. When he recovered, he was trapped in the middle. Lu Cheng came up and chopped half of his shoulder with a knife. He fell off the horse's back and rolled on the ground before getting up. The horse's hoof stepped on him. Head and face.

"Although he is not considered a famous general, he is also very famous. It is really tragic to die like this." Su Wanru said.

Zhou Jun, who was drinking the soup, said: "His life is his life, and ours is also our life. Knowing that he can't win, he desperately wants to gamble for meritorious service. The bet is not the lives of the brothers."

"Well said." Su Wanru said: "These people only want to make meritorious service, you rush to fight in the front, he shrinks in the back, look at our Marquis, he is always the first to kill and clear the way. "

Everyone nodded.

The song sounded again, and suddenly the fighting stopped, and someone shouted: "Marquis Deqing was captured, Xu Feng was killed in battle, you still don't surrender?"

"Xu Feng is dead? Deqinghou was arrested?" Zhou Jun couldn't believe it.

At this moment, on the city tower, Xu Feng's body was hanging down by a rope, and Marquis Deqing was tied up, with half of his body sticking out of the city wall.

Zhou Jun was in an uproar.

"Fuck!" One after another, someone dropped their weapons and shouted: "We surrender, whoever owns the world, my grandfather was still a soldier of the previous dynasty."

"Yes, we distribute military rations on time. We have food, meat and clothes. Our pension is 15 taels per person!" Qiu Rong shouted, "Come or not!"

More than 5 people shouted in unison, "Come!"

They don't care who the emperor is as long as they have food to eat and enough money to give them a pension when they die.

"Call back the troops, squat down where you are, and distribute the steamed buns." Qiu Rong shouted, and the people on the tower shouted, "The steamed buns are here."

Su Wanru interjected, "Master Bao, change the song, Garden of Dreams, the best part!"

"Yes!" Master Bao agreed, and when the gongs and drums were changed, the female voice was so soft that one's bones were half-crushed. Master Bao smiled and said to his host: "Princess should mean that."

To tease people, these soldiers who tease some eat, some drink, and don't have the heart to think about anything else.

"Don't worry." Su Wanru said to everyone: "As long as Shen Zhan has a bite to eat, you will have a bite to eat. Let me tell you, the money of the Later Song Dynasty, not to mention fighting for a year, even fighting for another ten years, is worth it." I can afford you."

"Long live the Later Song Dynasty." Someone shouted.

Su Wanru covered her face and smiled, Shen Zhan rode over, looked at her and said, "Are we celebrating the New Year here today?"

"Okay." Su Wanru said: "Let the soldiers in the city come out together, clean up the battlefield together, burn more than a dozen bonfires, buy two cars of fireworks, and set them up at dawn overnight!" Let everyone in the world know that Zhao Zhiang's 6 No one is left here.

Let the world see how many [-] Zhao Zhiang still has.

During the New Year, it was snowing everywhere. Su Ji wiped off the snowflakes from his face, and said to Duan Zhen who was following him: "Mr. Duan has been to Fujian, and further south, at this time, he is only wearing a single coat."

"I haven't been to the south." Duan Zhen laughed and replied, "However, if we travel faster this time, we can still spend the winter in Fujian."

They crossed Huizhou, entered Jiangxi, took Nanchang the day before yesterday, and went south tonight.

He brought his own 1 soldiers plus Xiaoshan's [-] soldiers, like a sharp sword piercing into the territory of Jiangxi.

This was his original plan, Shen Zhan defended Xuzhou, he fought south, took half of the country first, and then went north with all his strength.

However, Xuzhou was stalemate a few days ago. He was afraid of Xu Feng's sneak attack, but the other party had no food and grass, and after the retreat was cut off, he sang an empty city plan in Luzhou and led his troops into Jiangxi.

"Okay," Su Ji said, "then go to the beach to celebrate the New Year."

The 2 people walked without making a sound, and while walking, someone was handing out steamed buns on the side of the road, huge steamed stuffed buns filled with meat, I heard that there was roast mutton to eat at night, it was bought by Su Ji along the road, it has been washed and killed, and it is waiting to enter Fuzhou City, roast mutton to eat.

When they didn't arrive at Fuzhou City, some people came to welcome them halfway. The visitor knelt down and saluted, and cupped his hands and replied: "The next year is Fuzhou Wei Xiaoqi, and I have been ordered to welcome Second Brother Su into the city."

"This is..." Duan Zhen said excitedly, "How many people have you captured Fuzhou City?"

Nian Li replied: "We 300 people, sleepy Master Zhizhou at night, and forced him to order the withdrawal of the guards, and all [-] forbidden troops will be locked in the prison of Zhizhou!"

"Okay. Thank you for your hard work." Su Ji said, "Go to the city!"

A group of people marched into the city, but did not touch a single person. Su Ji met Zhizhou, arranged for the imperial army, killed a group and kept a group. After a day's rest in Fuzhou, after the New Year's Eve, he led people to advance into Fujian unexpectedly on the morning of the first day of the new year. territory.

Ganzhou asked for help from Guangdong Zhun. Before the year passed, he was ready to make great contributions in the first battle, but unexpectedly he went to Fujian.

This side waited empty, but the other side was beaten like a bird or a beast and fled in panic...

Half a month later, both Fujian and Jiangxi fell into Su Ji's pocket. He stopped outside Shaozhou City and set up camp without any haste.

"Your Highness." Duan Zhen said with a smile: "Although it's a little warmer here, it's still cold. Let's go further south."

Su Ji couldn't help laughing, and asked someone to bring the Yaoqin. Outside the empty city gate, he cleaned his hands, burned incense, and played the piano...

"I haven't played it for many years." Su Ji smiled lightly, and said, "Sure enough, some hands were born."

And the second day of the middle school year in Yanjing City was also extremely lively. Zhao Zhiang made Zhao Zhiting his grandson, and the court congratulated Zhao Jun... Zhao Jun sat in front of the crowd and drank tea, watching Zhao Zhiting put on a fitted python robe and a jade hair crown. With a click, he put the teacup on the table, and a smile flashed across his eyes.

"The higher you climb now, the worse you will fall in a few days." Zhao Jun murmured.

Zhao Zhiting was high-spirited, and returned to the Prince's Mansion with the imperial decree. Hu Qiongyue greeted him at the small gate, knelt down when he saw him, and said: "The concubine kowtows to His Highness the Grandson!"

"Please get up quickly." Zhao Zhiting helped her up modestly, the two looked at each other and smiled, Zhao Zhiting said in a low voice: "Yue'er, I told my grandmother that I want to make you a concubine."

Hu Qiongyue smiled and said: "I believe His Highness, it will definitely be possible."

"I'm going to talk to my mother." Zhao Zhiting said, "I'll come back to you later."

Hu Qiongyue nodded and watched Zhao Zhiting take the lead into the inner courtyard. She stood at the side door for a while, and a servant came over to greet her, and said in a low voice: "Miss side concubine, the matter has been settled, that woman will go to the yamen to attack soon." Drum, sue the empress."

"Okay, let her recite what she is going to say clearly, don't be frightened and lose your soul after being scolded on the spot, and talk nonsense." Hu Qiongyue said.

The servant should think that Hu Qiongyue's method is very good, and find someone to sue her for pretending to be Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law, so that her so-called identity as Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law will be self-defeating.

At the beginning, she was passive in admitting relatives, but now she was accused of impersonation. This matter has nothing to do with her from the beginning to the end, and she cleaned it up.

At that time, she will not be afraid of being pushed out by Zhao Zhiang to threaten Xiao Shan.

"Your Highness!" Someone rushed in at the door and called Zhao Zhiting, Hu Qiongyue frowned and shouted: "What's the matter, such a fuss."

When the visitor saw that it was her, he knew that Zhao Zhiting would tell the side concubine everything, so he immediately replied: "A letter from Xuzhou, Marquis Deqing was captured, Xu Feng was killed by his horse, and the entire army of [-] soldiers and horses was wiped out!"

"Impossible." Hu Qiongyue said: "There are only so many of them, how can they beat Marquis Deqing?"

The visitor shook his head and replied, "It's absolutely true. Shen Zhan and his wife killed 6 people without blinking an eye."

Hu Qiongyue's complexion was heavy, and she was suddenly a little scared... Could it be that Su Wanru can really succeed?

Can she really build the Later Song Dynasty again and continue to be her Princess of the Later Song Dynasty?
"Impossible." Hu Qiongyue shook her head, and went to the inner courtyard in a daze, "How is this possible?"

Five days later, Su Wanru was holding August, and she and Shen Zhan had already stood in Kaifeng. Henan was divided into two, half occupied by them, and the other half occupied by Zhou Chao's troops.

　I'll fix the typo later... Most of yesterday's has been corrected!
