Chapter 49
Li Muhan raised his hands impatiently: "What's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow. It's so late, don't just wander around here by yourself, go and rest. You have half a day's rest tomorrow, and then you will continue to set off to attack An Lan."

"Because of this, my subordinates are restless and unable to sleep, so they came here to hang out. My lord, before beating An Lan, my subordinates have something to report." Han Feng's firm expression was very serious.

Li Muhan had no choice but to stop, and turned to look at him: "Then tell me, my lord, listen."

Han Feng said: "Mrs. Hua has been missing for many days and her whereabouts are unknown. My subordinates suspect that she is in Qixia Mountain, where she is with the little prince."

Li Muhan suddenly burst into cold eyes, turned around and walked quickly to Han Feng: "How do you say that?"

Han Feng said: "That day Huabao took out a topographic map for us to look at, and analyzed the battle route so thoroughly. Everything was arranged properly, but it didn't look like his style. I heard that he was more than brave but not resourceful. How could he think So thorough? With that painting, how could it be him who painted it?"

"You mean... it's Hua Man'er?" Li Muhan's eyes were burning.

"Yes! This subordinate once saw her draw a portrait of the Empress. The style of the painting is as delicate and exquisite as this topographical map. However, my subordinate was not sure after all, so I sent someone to inquire privately. Not good at painting." Han Feng analyzed.

Li Muhan took a deep breath, his face slightly gloomy.

"Furthermore, although Huabao asked to see Mrs. Hua at that time, he gave up after we fudged him. Two months have passed and he has not mentioned it again. This is against common sense, unless he already knows the whereabouts of Mrs. Hua, and I'm very relieved." Han Feng's analysis was unraveling.

Li Muhan's eyes became even darker.

"Mrs. Hua has always been smart. According to the analysis of my subordinates, this time the leopard was able to bring [-] soldiers to the rescue, and the strategy of dividing the troops into two groups should be Mrs. Hua's strategy. The purpose is nothing more than to protect the little prince." Han Feng continued to analyze.

But as soon as his words fell, Li Muhan finally couldn't hold back and broke out: "Protect the little prince? If it's just to protect the little prince, why doesn't she come out to see the king? Will the king eat her? Didn't we have an agreement to treat him kindly?" Hua Zehao? He is my own younger brother, what is she worried about? Is this king so violent?"

Han Feng really wanted to say "yes", but finally held back, and just complained slightly: "Although the prince will not eat her, it seems that beating her and scolding her is commonplace! If it is a subordinate, the subordinate Faced with such a situation, you would also want to run away. If you were a prince, wouldn't you want to run away?"

Li Muhan seemed to be choked, and was speechless for a while.

After a long time, he finally said: "That's because she did something wrong and hurt Rou'er and this king. If she comes back and behaves well, this king will naturally not embarrass her!"

"Haha, this is what the prince said." Han Feng heaved a sigh of relief and laughed, "The prince shouldn't have said this to me, he should have told Mrs. Hua. When this battle is over, the prince should go and invite Mrs. Hua back. "

Li Muhan kept his face sullen and didn't speak, Han Feng glanced at him, thinking that he probably didn't lose face, and didn't force him to agree to anything right now, just sighed up to the sky, and continued to persuade.

"Well, it's a long way, and it's after the battle to invite her back. But the problem is here, even though Hua Qiu and Hua Luofu are helping her, Mrs. Hua is leading the battle alone, so isn't the prince worried? "Han Feng looked at Li Muhan intently and asked.

Li Muhan stared at Han Feng, and twitched, "Are you worried? You can't sleep because of worry? She is so strong, she thinks she can handle everything by herself. What is there to worry about?"

Han Feng was choked.This strong sour taste is so direct that it has never been seen before.

Han Feng couldn't help thinking about the fact that Li Muhan rushed over to punch Hua Man'er that day, and was speechless for a while.

Seeing that Han Feng didn't speak, Li Muhan said that he was guilty, and sarcastically said: "When you go to the capital, she was worried about you, so she asked for a peace amulet to wear for you. If you are worried about her now, you can also ask for her safety." symbol."

At this moment, Han Feng suddenly realized that the prince was jealous because of such a thing.

He hastily reached out and took the amulet out of his neck, threw it on the stone table, and smiled wryly: "If the lord is for this matter, then this subordinate should throw it away and never wear it again. But please don't misrepresent Mrs. Hua." mind."

"Mrs. Hua originally wanted both of us to go to the capital to rescue the empress. We are safe, and the empress will be safe. This is a meaning of praying for safety, and there is no personal relationship! If there is any personal relationship, we will also If you hide it, you won't be so frank."

"If the prince is uncomfortable, then his subordinates don't wear it, just throw it away. Please don't blame Mrs. Hua for this matter!"

"Now this subordinate speculates that she is in Qixia Mountain, and worrying about her safety has no other meaning. Isn't it because the prince was anxious to find Mrs. Hua's whereabouts before. The subordinates have clues, so naturally they should report to the prince! And it is also a reminder Wang Ye, there will be a battle in the future, please pay attention to the whereabouts of Mrs. Hua."

"As for worrying about her safety, I hope that she will return safely. It is also for the sake of the relationship between the prince and his wife. Besides, having Mrs. Hua here is definitely beneficial to speeding up the integration of Dazhao and the barbarians. For the sake of the overall situation, the subordinates must do the same Do it. In the future, if the prince is on the throne and the harem is stable, then the government will be stable, right?"

What Han Feng said is reasonable.

Li Muhan remained silent, turned around and went back to his room.

When he was about to enter the room, he said coldly: "Rest early, we have to fight tomorrow, so don't think about it."

Han Feng smiled wryly, but shook his head, and went back to his room to rest.

He thought to himself, maybe the prince knew he was wrong, but he didn't admit it face-to-face.

In the cool courtyard, the moonlight is like water, and the surroundings are silvery white, hazy.

Shi Yirou wore a purple cloak over her white gauze skirt, walking lightly in lotus steps towards the stone table.

She stretched out her slender hand, gently picked up the amulet on the stone table, and held it tightly in her palm.All knuckles are visible with full strength.

That beautiful and refined little face was still stained with tears, but the once clear and innocent beautiful eyes revealed a sinister aura.

"Hua, Man, Er." She silently recited these three words in her heart.

The resentment that was full just now turned into deep hatred at this moment.

She could tell that Li Muhan was jealous of Han Feng just now.Being able to make Li Muhan jealous shows that he still has his heart set on her!

Do not!Can't!
If the prince is not interested in any woman, then his knot in her heart will gradually fade as time goes by.But if during the fading period, Li Muhan empathized with other women, how could she get her back?
Thinking of this, fine beads of sweat broke out all over Shi Yirou's body.

No!She can't let this happen!
She is Huamaner, whether she is Li Xuqing's daughter or Hua Yiyang's daughter, she deserves to die!
She will never forget the pain they inflicted on her!

Shi Yirou quickly wiped away tears, walked back to the room quickly, and repaired a book overnight, and Feige passed the letter to Shi Hongchang...

Hua Man'er was in Qixia Mountain, preparing for battle carefully and diligently training soldiers and horses.Occasionally, he personally directed the soldiers to collect herbs and refine them into dazzling powder.Whenever nearby heard

On this day, they finally got good news from Li Muhan's army.An Lan had already been captured by Li Muhan, and Li Xuqing personally marched and stationed in Suijia, waiting to fight Li Muhan to the death.

At just the right time, Huabao also sent an attack signal to the little prince, and Huamaner was about to set off to attack Huangning.

Unexpectedly, before the army set off, they heard a sound of shouting and killing coming from the foot of the mountain, and the shouting shook the mountain.Soon, news came from Huaqiu that it was originally Shi Shiyu who brought an army of 20 to suppress the border.

Fortunately, a formation was set up at the foot of the mountain, and Shi Shiyu was temporarily besieged, unable to go up the mountain for a while.

However, Hua Man'er knew that the number of enemy soldiers was huge, and this formation could only siege them for a while, but not for a lifetime.Within three hours, it will definitely be breached.After all, she has only learned superficially about the formation in a short period of time, and she has not yet reached the subtleties.

"What should I do? Princess, we must find a solution as soon as possible. Hua Luofu is leading the army to resist desperately, but it seems that he will not be able to hold on." Hua Qiu was anxious like an ant on a hot nest, walking back and forth non-stop go.

"Hey, great changes have happened before leaving the army, what should we do? 20 troops! They are focused on dealing with Li Muhan, how do they know that we are hiding here? How could they leak the news?" Hua Qiu kept chattering.

It's no wonder he said, no one can calm down when they hear the number of 20.

Hua Man'er also bit her lips and said bitterly: "There must be an inner ghost, so they rushed here so quickly. I just don't know whether the inner ghost is from our side or from the king of Yi. In this way, we All plans have been disrupted."

She paced back and forth, forced herself to calm down, thought for a while, and said, "Hua Qiu, we must calm down. In my princess' opinion, it's not that there is no chance of returning to the world. On the contrary, it may be a opportunity."

She looked at Huaqiu fixedly, and ordered decisively: "In this way, our side will also divide into two groups. Hualuofu will fight desperately at the foot of the mountain, as long as we can. And you and I will bring 5 horses , go out from the back of the mountain by a small path, and take a detour to take Huangning. Well, fortunately, during the past two or three months of collecting medicine and refining poison, I accidentally found another small path down the mountain. However, it is not easy to walk, it is very dangerous, and , the action must be fast, otherwise, Hua Luofu will not be able to resist, and it will be futile if we cannot reach Huangning in time!"

Hua Qiu nodded and said: "This is a clever plan to build the plank road openly and pass through the warehouse secretly. However, these 3 horses have to resist 20 troops. It is conceivable how long they can resist..."

He smiled wryly, still full of sadness.

Why is Huaman'er not worried?Just by hearing the number, one can tell that even if they succeeded in attacking Huang Ning, the [-] barbarian soldiers would probably be used as cannon fodder.Before leaving the army, the casualties would be so heavy, Hua Man'er gritted her teeth, wishing to immediately pull out the inner ghost and tear it into pieces.

But is worry useful?Knowing that there is a dead end ahead, she can't show a sad face in front of the soldiers now.She must give them hope, give them confidence!
"Shut up! Hua Qiu, if you dare to make such remarks again to disturb the morale of the army, you will definitely be executed!" Hua Man'er stared at Hua Qiu with burning eyes.

Hua Qiu suddenly realized, her face was full of shame.Anyway, he is also a veteran in the battlefield, and in the face of difficulties, he is actually worse than a princess who was pampered since childhood!
"Yes! The general will be convicted! Please punish the princess!" Hua Qiu immediately pleaded guilty.

Hua Man'er said: "Now is not the time to plead guilty, you hurry up and let those sky lanterns and archers also divide into two groups, one for Hua Luofu, and the other for us to take away. Then, send a word to Hua Luofu : To capture the thief, first capture the king, and after the sky lantern is used, kill Shi Shiyu immediately, so that we can get twice the result with half the effort!"

"Yes, the general will do it right away!" Hua Qiu immediately took the order and left.

Here, Hua Man'er immediately put on the red-tasseled armor, took the Yiyue sword, took care of Hua Zehao, and left with Hua Zehao.

Before leaving, she also informed those old and weak women and children who were too late to evacuate, and asked them to hide in hidden caves and wait for the news of their victory.

5 people followed Hua Qiu and Hua Man'er down the narrow path and the cliffs. The thorns scratched their faces, and the sharp rocks broke their hands, but everyone, including the little prince, did not complain. March silently and at top speed.

This could not but be attributed to Hua Man'er's usual strict military might.

After finally spending more than half a day, they successfully withdrew from the mountainous area, and they quickly headed to Huangning without stopping.

At the foot of Huangning City, Hua Man'er ordered Hua Qiu to lead a group of troops to attack the city first, and after the prefect opened the city gate to send troops to fight, she then ordered the soldiers behind to release sky lanterns!All the sky lanterns are covered with words.

It says--

"Surrender without killing, disarm without killing!"

"Embracing the order of the new emperor, exempt from taxation for three years!"

"Oppose exorbitant donations and extortion, and promise to live and work in peace and contentment!"

……

The rising sky lanterns are as beautiful as stars, but this is not the focus of the Jochow soldiers, what they focus on is those words.

All kinds of inspiring words made those Jokha soldiers couldn't help but look up, just when they were fascinated by watching, Hua Man'er ordered to shoot arrows.

The bow and crossbow team immediately launched a rain of arrows, all over the sky, shooting at the sky lanterns.

The hallucination powder that had been hidden in the sky lantern fluttered down and landed on every soldier on the battlefield.

Here, except for Hua Man'er who had to take the antidote in advance, and covered her with a gauze to protect herself, the rest of the people were all sprayed by the medicine powder.

However, only the Jokhang soldiers had dizziness symptoms, and the barbarians were immune to all poisons, so they were fine.

Hua Man'er motioned to Hua Qiu.Hua Qiu immediately flew up to the tower, killed the prefect with a sword, took his head and hung it on the tower.

Hua Man'er raised his sword and shouted: "Come on, brothers, attack the city..."

"what--"

All the barbarian soldiers killed the guards like tigers coming out of their cages, and captured Huangning.

The fight at the foot of the mountain was even more brutal and bloody.

Although later, Hua Luofu also ordered the use of sky lanterns and sprinkled medicinal powder.But it was too late after all.At that time, under the attack of 20 Jokhang soldiers, the barbarian army had already stained the green hills with blood, and there were only less than [-] troops left.

After all, the number of sky lanterns is limited, and an army of 20 is lined up and stretches for several miles. How can we get all of them?
However, the key point is Shi Shiyu, Hua Luofu kept Hua Man'er's confession in mind.

Therefore, that day, the focus of the light was placed in the midair of Shi Shiyu's area, and the arrow shot the medicine, and Shi Shiyu also fainted, but Hua Luofu took a step forward and cut off his head.

As soon as Shi Shiyu died, before Hua Luofu had time to persuade the Jokhang soldiers to surrender, those soldiers rushed over and killed the barbarian soldiers.

In the end, Hua Luofu couldn't resist this overwhelming group of attacks, and died with several knives in his body.

The [-] barbarian soldiers added a bit of blood to Qixia Mountain, and the ghosts of the dead, from now on, will only wander in this Qixia Mountain.

After Huaman'er settled in Huangning City, she couldn't find peace for a moment. She stood on the top of the city tower and looked at the way she came from.

She was about to send Huaqiu to recruit reinforcements to rescue them, but she saw a large number of Jokhang soldiers swarming the border like a swarm of ants.Let alone 15.

Gradually approaching, Hua Man'er didn't see Hua Luofu, and instantly realized that it was too late.Thirty thousand soldiers are afraid that there will be no bones left.

Hua Man'er endured her grief, and said to the Jokha soldiers below the tower: "Soldiers, this princess is Li Xuqing's biological daughter, and she is also your compatriot. As the Jokha princess, I want to be your enemy now. You should know how much my heart hurts."

"This princess believes that each of you has read the crusade document, you know the ins and outs of this whole matter, and you all know the grievances of this princess! This princess just wants to say, I don't want to go this far, but I was forced to step by step by my father." We have come to this point! Soldiers, this princess only asks you, are you really willing to fight?"

Hua Man'er glanced at the Dazhao soldiers who started whispering under the tower, and continued to say sadly: "Aren't you tired of fighting for years? You just captured the barbarians, and then you went to attack Xuanyue, and now, you are attacking the soldiers led by King Yi again." The barbarian army, are you not tired?"

"Brothers here, how many of you have served in the Li family army? How many of you were trained by King Yi? Do you have the heart to fight against King Yi?"

The Jokhang soldiers under the city tower began to waver under Hua Man'er's three-inch tongue.

Hua Man'er continued to shout: "What's the benefit of following Li Xuqing? You follow him to kill people, and then you are not allowed to reunite with your family all year round. Every day, you have to watch your brother die before your eyes. Is this kind of life really easy? Is it really easy for you to work hard? At the same time, the young and old in your family have to bear the pressure of exorbitant taxes, is it really easy to live like this?"

"Now that Shi Shiyu is dead, if you are willing to report your surrender and return to the Yi King's army, the Yi King will promise you that starting today, at least ten years will be spent on recuperation, there will be no more wars, so that you can go home and reunite with your wives and children. Tax exemption for three years, tax cut in half for five years, this promise can make your little days gradually richer."

"Soldiers, this princess asks you one last time, are you willing to let go of your martial arts and follow King Yi?"

As soon as her words fell, roars erupted from the tower below: "Willing to—"

"willing--"

"willing--"

……

Hua Man'er looked around the audience, tears of joy burst out of her eyes involuntarily.
