Yi Song

Chapter 253 New friends and old friends
"Palace Master, when I left Ningxia City, Commander Jieh had already gone north. According to the plan, he built Shuofang City in Wulahai City and summoned all the tribes from Hetao, Hetao and Heishan Yinshan. In the past two days, he should have led the Red Tiger Cavalry Army to the Fifth Guards Station. Head north."

In the front hall of the Liufu Middle Courtyard in Xuanhuafang, Zhao Wuniang was sitting in the hall, with Yingxiu and Xiniang standing on both sides.

Liu Baoxiang stood at the door.

The hall door was curtained, keeping Wang Xun out of the room.

"The south and north of the desert are bitterly cold and vast. Brother Erlang is willing to take risks for a lost dog. Why bother?" Zhao Wuniang was a little depressed.

"Palace Master, Brother Richard is ambitious and talented. This defeat was due to the right time and place, and neither the people nor the people were in the right place. It was fate. Now he is fleeing to the desert. As time goes by, there may be big changes. Commander-in-Chief To rectify the division is to avoid future troubles.”

"The next trouble of the Western Thieves is in Liangzhou. The government and the public are discussing why brother Erlang doesn't march westward with a whole army, with a thunderous force, defeat the remaining enemies of Xixia in one fell swoop, regain the old territory of Longyou, and avoid future troubles?"

Zhao Wuniang asked puzzledly.

"If I go back to the palace master, I can defeat Xixia this time and regain the land of Lingwu in one fell swoop. Half of it is that Jieshuai detoured for eight thousand miles, borrowed tens of thousands of Monan cavalry to outflank the Xia army, and succeeded in one blow.

The other half was Tianshi Renhe. The Western thieves, monarchs and ministers were suspicious. After hearing about the defeat, Li Qianshun abandoned the ancestral mausoleum and the Taimiao and hunted Longyou. The soldiers and the people were disheartened and had no fighting spirit. Countless people surrendered.

Zhao Wuniang didn't answer, and the front hall was silent.

Liu Hu, the governor of Xuanfu in Hedong, Shaanxi Province, had a large and capable command, and was capable of planning far-reaching but capable of defeating enemies. Qingying Zhongzhao went to Fuxi Frontier. It is difficult to say things without words, but all the words are accomplished.

To strengthen the troops, the summons will be announced. Use Xirzhi, the picture is called my life. Can! "

"Yes."

"On the other hand, going north to pursue the remnants of Richard Brother, firstly, the Red Tiger Cavalry did not cost the court much money in food, and secondly, these cavalrymen could be sent out of the country as gifts. Commander Ji wrote all the reasons one by one in a memorial and presented it to the official Home."

Wang Xun received it respectfully, said a few more words, and then took his leave.

"Under the orders of Commander-in-Chief, I have sent the Xuanfu Envoy to the Privy Council and Zhongshu Province, as well as three to five other confidential matters. Once completed, I will return to my post. It is expected to set off back to Ningxia City in ten days."

"Under the sect. When you enter, you will be respected by Ji Heng to assist all the affairs of the world. When you go out, you will be sent by Ping Han to maintain the peace of the four countries. The king will be in charge of the emperor, so the scenery of the He Zongshe is beautiful. Le Chongchui Hong , so I answer Hao Qiong’s Pi Kuang.

"When you go back, remember to take a copy of the reward edict given by your father to Erlang's brother. This edict was read by the chamberlain in front of everyone at the Xuande Gate during the prisoner presentation ceremony. Mr. Xiang, give it to Wang Dalang."

However, after half a year of raising troops, we spent countless money and food, and our 300,000 soldiers and horses were exhausted. If we forcefully advance westward, we may be afraid of mishaps. In the Longyou prefectures, the Tibetan and Han aristocratic families have been in business for two to three hundred years and are deeply rooted. There are many Tibetan tribes in Hehuang and other places on the flanks.

"Back to the palace master, the young lady of the Xue family has been placed in the Yu Garden, and the expenses for the maid have been arranged." The woman reported respectfully, "There is more."

After Liu Baoxiang finished reading, he opened the door curtain and handed it to Wang Xun.

"Yes. Let me read it first." Liu Baoxiang replied.

Wang Xun talked eloquently.

Zhao Wuniang was silent for a while, "I don't understand the matter of military aircraft. Brother Erlang thinks it's feasible. Let the government and the public criticize it. If these people don't criticize things, they won't be able to survive."

Then a middle-aged woman came into the front room.

"When are you going back?"

She raised her head, hesitated for a moment, and continued: "An old palace maid, the two stable ladies have secretly seen her, the little lady of the Xue family is still perfect."

The strategy of entering and exiting with Tao Qian and the strategy of vertical and horizontal curtains. A thousand miles away, we can open up frontiers and conquer cities. On the third day of the month, they will offer food after victory, and the crazy enemies will be wiped out. The old territory of the Han and Tang Dynasties was restored to the royal territory. River Huang has wings, Lingwu returns to the map
You can be added as a loyal, fruitful, brave and heroic official, as the governor of the Yongxing Army, as the commander of the guard and horse army, and as the Taiwei, Yinziguanglu doctor, directly to the Xuanhe Palace, as the founding Duke of Fenghua County, and as the food There are three thousand households in the city, and one thousand households are sealed. The envoys, scattered officials, honors, and dispatches from the three towns of Fengguojun/Huainan/Hexi remained the same. The master implements it.

The middle-aged woman lowered her head, beads of sweat dripping from her forehead. Ying Xiu quietly winked, and the woman hurriedly saluted and left in a hurry.

Once there is an accident, all previous efforts may be wasted. Not only will the army be lost, but the old land of Lingwu may also be lost again. "

After she left, Liu Baoxiang persuaded: "Palace Master, Erlang sent the little lady of the Xue family back to Bianjing intact. The meaning is very clear."

"What does he want? If I don't agree, I'll get the reputation of being jealous first." Zhao Wuniang said with a pout.

"Palace Master, the Xue family is the head of the Han family in Hexi. If Erlang wants to stabilize the old land of Lingwu as soon as possible, he has to rely on them. Sometimes he has to take the overall situation into consideration and has to do something against his will."

Zhao Wuniang looked at Liu Baoxiang and said, "Mr. Xiang, is this what Brother Erlang told you in his letter?"

"Yes."

"Then what's his opinion on how to deal with the young lady of the Xue family?"

"He said it's all up to the Palace Master." "Hmph, I haven't bothered him about you and Thirteenth Sister, and now here comes another Xue Jinchai. There are Han families in the Hexi family, and there are also Han families in Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

At that time, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun will be recovered, and each prefecture will receive a young lady. The overall situation is the most important thing. When the time comes, the Liu Mansion in Xuanhuafang will not be able to accommodate so many warblers. "

It is difficult for Liu Baoxiang to answer these sour words. Like Yingxiu and Xiniang, the eyes look at the nose, the nose looks at the heart, and the mind looks at ease.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Wuniang stood up and said: "Go to Yuyuan, let me see what the Hexi family's young lady is like."

The group of people arrived at the gate of Yuyuan, and after receiving the news, the maid Bilian ran into the inner room crawling on the ground.

"Sixth Sister, here you come, here you come!"

Xue Jinchai was reading a book and was startled when he heard Bilian's panicked words.

"Who's coming?"

"Palace Master, Palace Master Houde."

Xue Jinchai stood up in a hurry, at a loss.

"How to do?"

"Sixth Sister, I have read the Bianjing Chapter Reply, and I have told a few stories about the jealous mistress, how she abused her concubines, pricking her fingers with bamboo sticks, twisting her fingers, and wearing red-hot copper shoes. Scary. Sixth sister, what should I do?”

The more Bi Lian spoke, the more frightened she became, trembling all over with fear.

Xue Jinchai's face turned pale, and he forced himself to smile twice, "Now that the matter has come to this, we can only trust in fate."

The master and servant waited nervously, hearing the footsteps coming from far to near, from light to heavy, their hearts beating so fast that they almost jumped out of their throats.

With a creak, the door was pushed open and four people walked in.

Before she could open her mouth, Bilian fell to her knees with a pop.

Xue Jinchai's heart skipped a beat. He lowered his head, bit his lower lip, and forced himself to hold on.

The footsteps stopped in front of me, and the faint fragrance penetrated my nose. Such an elegant scent, fresh but not strong peony scent.

The footsteps circled three times and finally stopped in front of him.

"Raise your head." A clear voice sounded.

Xue Jinchai raised his head and saw a face of national beauty, as bright as the bright moon and as delicate as a peony. Those starry eyes stared closely at him.

"Sure enough, he is a good person. His beauty conceals the present and the past, and the lotus flowers put his jade face to shame. I never thought that there is such a beautiful person in the bitter cold land of Hexi. I admire him greatly when I see him, not to mention Brother Erlang."

"The little girl has never seen Jieshuai." Xue Jinchai mustered up the courage to say.

Zhao Wuniang was stunned and asked in disbelief: "Never seen it before?"

"I have never seen it before. The little girl has been placed in Lingzhou City. Jieshuai first fell into Jingzhou and then Fuxingzhou. Then he led his troops to the west to inspect Yingli and Kalochuan, and then went to Helan Mountain to worship Xixia The old mausoleum. When the little girl was sent to Chang'an, Commander-in-Chief was touring the states in Henan."

Zhao Wuniang was silent for a while and said, "Brother Erlang has great ambitions but short love for his children. Since he has sent you back home, you can stay here in peace and wait until he comes back."

"Thank you, Palace Master."

Zhao Wuniang turned and left, leaving only lingering fragrance.

Bi Lian rubbed her sore legs and stood up, and said with lingering fear: "Princess of the Song Dynasty, she is so powerful. The drama article said something about the former Princess Taiping of the Tang Dynasty. When I saw her today, I kind of believed her. "

Xue Jinchai looked at the door, thoughtfully.

Zhao Wuniang went back to my hometown building and sat down. There was a report from her maid.

"Palace Master, someone wants to see you."

"Who?"

"He said he was Liu Langjun's old friend, his surname was Fang, and he was from eastern Zhejiang."
