Chapter 253
There has been a saying since ancient times, those who know the current affairs are heroes.

Shen Yuexi felt that Lin Kui could be called a "hero".

Xiao Zhuo's [-] infantry and Mei Dai's [-] cavalry marched for more than half a month and arrived at Zhangwu in early May.Dajun got the news while he was still on the road, and Lin Kui ran away.

Shen Yuexi didn't believe that victory came so easily.After the army arrived in Zhangwu, she asked the people in the city to find out.

At that time, King Doma of Xirong was leading an army to attack the city, and the two sides were fighting fiercely. When they heard that Xiao Zhuo was leading his troops, Xirong withdrew immediately.Lin Kui probably felt that it was impossible for him to fight against Xiao Zhuo, so he led his army back to Yongwei.

Xiao Zhuo occupied Zhangwu without a single soldier.

Shen Yuexi's joy hadn't passed yet, another news came from Leshan, the general of Leshan probably feared that Xiao Zhuo would attack him next, so he withdrew his army ahead of time, and went to Yongwei to join Lin Kui.

Of the four counties in Xiliang, Xiao Zhuo got two at once.Only Nanping in the north is in the hands of the Xirong army, and Yongwei in the south is in the hands of the Dingbei army.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.Now Shen Yuexi knows what status Xiao Zhuo holds in the eyes of the enemy.

Now that she has captured Zhang Wu, she immediately ran to Mei Dai, intending to ask about Bai Ling.

Mei Dai is worshiping at the tomb of Xiliang King Meicheng.At that time, Yongwei was being occupied by Xiao Kai, and Xiliang Wang Meicheng and his concubine were buried in Zhangwu.

Looking at Mei Dai who was bowing solemnly in front of the king's tomb, her shoulders twitched as if she was crying, Shen Yuexi felt that it was not appropriate to disturb her at this time, so she quietly left again.

After returning to Zhang Wu's prefect's mansion, he entered the door when he heard a woman's crying voice coming from the hall.

"Hiss, no one can take away what's yours, no, I took it all back..."

This leaking voice, except for Mrs. Li, did not run away.

Shen Yuexi entered the hall, Mrs. Li and Li Wan were showing the joy of parting and reunion in front of Xiao Zhuo.

Mrs. Li was raising her hand to wipe her tears, and Li Wan, who was helping her by the side, also shed two lines of tears.Crying to the point of emotion, the two hugged each other again.Standing next to them was a middle-aged man who looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

This scene is almost the same as Mrs. Li's mother and daughter's first arrival in Xiaogang Village.

Xiao Zhuo stood there in embarrassment, looked up and saw Shen Yuexi coming, and quickly winked at her.Shen Yuexi understood, stepped forward and said to Mrs. Li: "Auntie, it is a happy event to say goodbye and reunite..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Li turned her head and saw her, and hugged her: "Oh, my niece and daughter-in-law."

"Biao sister-in-law, I didn't expect that we would meet again one day." Li Wan also came over and hugged her from behind, and the two women caught her between them and cried.

Shen Yuexi stood upright, thinking that the mother and daughter were really haunted, and Xiao Zhuo had just occupied Zhangwu when their mother and daughter appeared.It's fine if you don't say anything, but when they speak, they cry even more fiercely.

With Shen Yuexi dealing with Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, Xiao Zhuo finally freed up and said to the middle-aged man:
"Master Liu, Xiliang is in constant war, thanks to you protecting my aunt and cousin..."

"Ah, Liu Yi," Shen Yuexi turned her head and shouted to the middle-aged man when she heard Xiao Zhuo's words, "You are the prefect of Liangzhou who arrested us earlier."

Liu Yi, the prefect of Liangzhou, smiled awkwardly, and said to Shen Yuexi: "At this time and at that time, Your Majesty has an order, and I dare not disobey it."

After explaining to Shen Yuexi, Liu Yi turned around and knelt down to Xiao Zhuo and said, "King Qi attacked the capital and forced His Majesty to set himself on fire, which is a great treason. Although Liu is not talented, he will never bow down to surrender. From today on, Liu is willing to stand on the saddle for the crown prince and work together. Seeking rebels."

Xiao Zhuo reached out to support Liu Yi and said: "Prefect Liu, the four counties of Xiliang have been fighting all the year round, and the people are in dire straits. They just need officials like the prefect to govern."

"His Royal Highness, don't worry. Although the officials are not good at fighting, they still have confidence in governing the region. The three counties of Dongliang are in the pass and have not been harmed. Now they can recruit troops and collect food for the prince..."

"Okay, let's talk in detail in the side room." Xiao Zhuo said, and went to the side room with Liu Yi.

Shen Yuexi blinked, is this a prefect-level official loyal to Xiao Zhuo?

After the death of Emperor Yongde, the state and county officials all over the country must now make a choice, whether to be loyal to King Qi or Xiao Zhuo.

The prefect of Liangzhou was the first to show allegiance to Xiao Zhuo.

I remembered that this guy was still chasing her and Xiao Zhuo with troops at that time, if the hot air balloon hadn't taken off, he would have caught him.Unexpectedly, now he has turned his allegiance to Xiao Zhuo, it's really an impermanent world.

Looking back, Mrs. Li and Li Wan were still holding her and crying.She thought what a headache, Xia Lan stayed in Xiaogang Village to take care of her sister, Yang Cong and Feng Zhang were going to guard Langya Pass, so they didn't bring her here.It's really hard for me to cope with the lack of people to command.

She reached out and patted Mrs. Li on the shoulder: "Auntie, you have suffered a lot these days, let's talk in detail inside the house."

"By the way, I haven't brought you to see anyone yet." Mrs. Li seemed to remember something, took her hand and walked to the other room, "I just met my nephew, and you happened to be away."

Shen Yuexi was a little puzzled, and followed Mrs. Li into the room.

Inside the room was a man with a burly figure and a face like bronze. He was dressed neatly and was about to go out.Seeing Shen Yuexi coming in, she quickly knelt down on one knee: "The last general pays his respects to the mistress."

Shen Yuexi was both surprised and happy, and said: "General Qiu Liming, you are still alive."

She always thought that Qiu Liming died in battle in Nanping, but she didn't expect to meet here, it seemed like a lifetime away.

Qiu Liming raised his head, with tears in his eyes, and said, "If it wasn't for the armor protection made by the mistress, the general would have passed away long ago."

Shen Yuexi thought for a long time before remembering what happened.

At the beginning, she made an inner armor for Xiao Zhuo, and later Xiao Zhuo rewarded it to Qiu Liming.Unexpectedly, this armor saved Qiu Liming's life.

"The last general was hit by several arrows and fell into the moat from the top of Nanping City and escaped his life. On the way back to Leshan, he met Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, and escorted them to Yongwei to find the lord. On the way, they met the second prince's army. When we learned that the lord was defeated and disappeared, we had no choice but to go east. We met Liu Yi, the prefect of Liangzhou, who protected us, and when we learned that the lord returned with his army, we came to see each other immediately."

After listening to Qiu Liming's story, Shen Yuexi said: "General Qiu fought bloody battles in Nanping and made great achievements. Now he is back in my husband's army. It's a great joy."

"The last general is incompetent and cannot defend Nanping for the lord. I feel very guilty at first, but the lord doesn't care about it," Qiu Liming said, "The last general is very moved, and he is willing to go on a horse to fight for the lord again."

"Okay, okay." Shen Yuexi agreed happily.

The husband won Zhang Wu, the two counties of Leshan, Mrs. Li's mother and daughter returned safely, the prefect Liu Yi declared his allegiance, and the general Qiu Liming returned.So many happy events came one after another, which made her very happy.

She planned to go to the street to see if she could buy something delicious to celebrate.

After reaching the gate of the prefect's mansion, Qiang Lin walked towards him with the help of a white-haired old man.

"Doctor Hua is here too!" Shen Yuexi was already happy, but when she saw Doctor Hua again, she almost jumped up.

Doctor Hua smiled and said: "I have been practicing medicine in Yongwei. I heard that King Zhao led an army to Xiliang, so I hired a carriage to come here."

While talking, Mei Dai walked over from the other side.

Doctor Hua turned his head to see Mei Dai, covered his head, and said to Shen Yuexi: "I am a little tired on the way, let me go into the house to rest for a while."

Shen Yuexi smiled and said: "Doctor Hua, Sister Mei is well now, and won't hit you with a stick."

Mei Dai bowed deeply to Doctor Hua, and said: "Doctor Hua, I was rude that day because I was afraid that you would find that Mei Dai was pretending to be crazy, and I would offend you."

Dr. Hua said: "So that's it. It's okay. The beating is not serious."

Mei Dai turned to Shen Yuexi and said, "Sister, I have something to tell you. Let's go for a walk on the street together."

Shen Yuexi didn't know what she wanted to say, so she said to Qiang Lin: "Let Dr. Hua go to the mansion to rest, and Sister Mei and I will go to the street to relax."

Seeing the seriousness on Mei Dai's face, it seems that there is something very important to tell her.
