358 The Finale 04
In the winter of Jiujiang City, the surface of the moat has already frozen, and the people are waiting at the gate of the city one after another, hoping to enter the city as soon as possible.

Shen Yan took the people from the patrol battalion to check one by one, screened out the suspicious people and sent them to prison, and put the others in temporary places in the city.

Qu You and Ling An stood in front of the temporary thatched hut, scooping up miscellaneous rice spoon by spoon and distributing it to the fleeing people.

"Come on, line up, don't grab, everyone has a share!" Jin Xiu and Huan Shan maintained order in front, trying to let everyone get it.

An old woman in ragged clothes led a four or five-year-old boy in her hand, and walked up to Qu You tremblingly with a bowl in her hand, "Please, sir!"

Qu You glanced at the little boy, seeing that her grandparents were really pitiful, picked up the cloth bag beside her, scooped up a few more spoonfuls of flour, and stuffed them into the child's arms.

"Thank you, thank you nobleman." The little boy 'Putong' knelt down, startling everyone.

"Get up." Qu You walked around the rice bucket and carefully helped the boy up.She lightly brushed the thin ashes on the child's body, and touched the top of his head, "A man stands upright, don't kneel down easily, the difficulty is temporary, and I, a man of great Chu, will definitely be able to annihilate the invaders."

The little boy nodded ignorantly, kowtowed to Qu You again, and then walked back to the old woman's side.

The old woman wiped her tears and walked back holding the child's hand, but she didn't win sympathy for her difficulties.

Qu You nodded at Ling An, and chased after Ling You with her, "This mother-in-law, please stay!"

The old woman turned her head, her eyes were cautious, she secretly clenched the boy's hand and hid him behind her back.

"This lady is polite!"

"What madam, this is the first-class Princess Rui." Ling You shouted tenderly.

The old woman was slightly stunned, and knelt down while holding the boy's hand, "The old woman doesn't know, please forgive me, Wangfei."

Qu You gave Lingyou a white look, and helped the grandfather and grandson up, "Where is the mother-in-law's house?"

The old woman pursed her lips, lowered her head, unsure of what to do.

Qu You waited calmly, neither arrogant nor impetuous, nor discouraged.In today's Jiujiang City, the common people are in danger. As far as the army can win the battle, they have no hope at all. It is just that the city gate is blocked, and they are only allowed to enter and not to exit. They have no choice but to choose to surrender.

"Princess, please come with the old lady..." After the old lady finished speaking, she took the little boy's hand and continued to walk forward. Eating it will burn high incense, after all, there will be fewer good people!"

Lingyou glanced at the old woman in displeasure, and wanted to go forward to argue, but was pulled by her arm. She snorted softly, and supported Qu You to continue walking.

Passing through the dilapidated alley, a few people came to a small courtyard. Looking at the dusty gate, it seemed to be in disrepair and uninhabited.

The old lady looked back at Qu You, pushed open the door, and walked in.

"Mother, are you back?" A thick voice came from inside the house, and a man with a stick in one hand opened the door curtain.

"Xiaohao, bring the rice to your mother."

Xiao Hao bowed to Qu You who was behind him, and walked towards the kitchen with a rice bowl in his hand.

The man was stunned, and then saw Qu You's master and servant, he looked sideways at the old woman, with puzzlement in his eyes.

The old woman stepped aside and slightly raised her hand, "Princess Wangfei, please come in with the old woman."

Qu You smiled and nodded, and walked in first.

The man was full of vigilance, and he followed step by step, fearing that Qu You's master and servant would hurt the old woman.

The old lady let Qu You to the upper seat, served tea, then sat down at the bottom, and sighed heavily, "The old lady's family name is Yao, and her family is in Yangcun, a hundred miles away. My husband was the head of the village when he was alive. Although the life is poor, it is enough to have enough food and clothing, and the family is happy together. However, Jiang Guo called..." Yao's trembling voice was full of hatred, and his thin hands wiped away tears.

Qu You lowered her eyes and sipped her tea. She wanted to comfort her but she couldn't speak. She could only utter with embarrassment, "Ms. Yao, you have to believe in the country, trust in our good man from Chu!"

The old woman's eyes were full of resentment, and more of it was the helplessness of being deprived of her home.She lowered her head, covered her lips, and sobbed softly, every sound was like a thin needle, piercing Qu You's heart.

"My nobleman, I don't know which master you are. If you know the marshal, please let me know. I am willing to return to the barracks again to serve the country." The man listened for a long time, leaning on a wooden stick, Excitedly rushed in front of Qu You.

Lingyou turned sideways, narrowed her eyes, and stared at the man for a long time.

The man scratched his head in embarrassment, and looked at Qu You with bright eyes, "My lord, you..."

Qu You slightly raised his hand, "Are you a retired soldier?"

The man stepped forward two steps quickly, "No, no, the little one is just injured and needs to be recuperated temporarily."

The old woman raised her head and yelled loudly, "Chengren, do you want your father to die in peace and make my Yao family die?"

The man swallowed his saliva, his eyes dimmed, "Mother, if everyone has such an idea, how can Jiang Guo repel him, and how can he promote my Great Chu Guowei?"

Well, well said, a man!

There was admiration in Qu You's eyes, and he glanced at the man calmly. Under the expectant gaze of the man, he got up and said goodbye to the old woman.

"Aunt Yao, I have made a promise today that the Jiang Kingdom will definitely be defeated!"

"Princess..." Yao's mouth was sticky, and she looked over in shock.

Qu You nodded slightly, got up and walked out.

The man clenched his fists tightly, beat the wooden stick under his armpit on the ground repeatedly, and hurriedly rushed out of the room.

Lingyou turned to look at the man, raised his hand to stop him slightly, "We know the way back, so we won't see you off!"

"I..." The man turned his head repeatedly, looking at Qu You outside the door.

A smile flashed across Lingyou's eyes, "Brother Yao has something to say to Princess Wang."

The man nodded again and again, straightened his back and shouted: "If the Japanese pirates are not eradicated, why should we call ourselves home?"

Well, what a pirate is, how can he be at home if he doesn't get rid of it!

Lingyou's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked up to this ordinary farmer.She ran outside the door and whispered something to Qu You, then turned and returned to the man.

"Brother Yao is inconvenient. Although he can't fight the enemy, he still has a heart to serve the country, and the princess is deeply moved." He said, and passed the token in his hand, "This is the token of the Jiujiang Marshal's Mansion. , Brother Yao will come to the mansion tomorrow to take up the post of a staff member."

Yao Chengren held the token excitedly, and the seven-foot-tall man had tears in his eyes, crying like a child.

A few days later, in the thatched hut, there was an old woman, wearing clean clothes, standing beside Huanshan neither humble nor overbearing, maintaining order and distributing rice grains together.

In the fifth year of Longyu, Jiang Guo colluded with Qin State and sent 50 troops to raid Jiujiang City again.Chu Yu led people to resist to the death, but the reinforcements could not wait for a long time, the people in the city were panicked, and there were wailing sounds everywhere.Qu Xiao led his troops out of the city to meet the enemy, and after several lives and deaths, Jiujiang City, which was originally weak, fell into death again.

"Let go of me, I want to go back to the country and ask why that white-eyed wolf colluded with Jiang Guo." Ling An raised his hand to Jin Xiu, turned and rushed out.

"Ling'an..." Qu Xiao slowly moved out with gauze wrapped around his chest, supported by Zi Mu.

Ling An's footsteps paused slightly, and tears of distress flowed out immediately. She ran back regardless of her appearance, and stomped her feet angrily, "You are all injured, why did you come out?"

Qu Xiao coughed heavily, and walked back with his arms around Ling An's slender waist.The new emperor of Qin ascended the throne and monopolized the political power. He not only dispersed the Blue Banner Army, but also hunted down and killed Ling An's former subordinates wantonly.

Ling An's eyes were filled with grayness, and she couldn't resist the tears flowing out of her eyes. She looked back from time to time, feeling deeply guilty in her heart.At the beginning, she came all the way to the Great Chu Kingdom, and with the help of Qu You, she took advantage of the shareholder style of 'full of gold and jade' to push the new emperor to the throne in one fell swoop. man wolf.

Qu You spent sleepless nights researching countermeasures, drawing pictures and calculating quickly. Suddenly, she slapped the table and said, "Go and tell Mu Qianhun about the elixir. , All brothers withdraw from Qin, take all that can be taken away, and burn all that cannot be taken away."

"Your subordinate obeys!" The elixir got up and jumped out quickly.

Royal Palace.

When the court was discussing matters in the early court, it sent troops to support Jiujiang City. The courtiers in the hall had a fierce quarrel. Emperor Longyu's brain hurt from the yelling, and he rubbed his forehead from time to time.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Jiujiang is imminent. If you don't send troops, the border will definitely be breached by Jiang Guo. At that time, the country will not be a country. Why should it be home..." Nanyang King was heartbroken, and he cupped his hands and went out.

"Your Majesty's words are wrong." Hong Meng, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, retorted loudly, "Although Jiujiang is important, His Majesty's life is even more important. The imperial court has not conscripted troops in recent years, and there are only more than [-] soldiers on the list. If you send all of them to the border, will you Where do you put His Majesty's safety?"

Nanyang Wang Nunuuo mouthed, and retreated in embarrassment.

Emperor Longyu raised his head, looked at Hong Meng with a burning gaze, and when he was complacent, he shouted sharply: "Come here, remove Hong Meng from his post as secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and put him in the prison for trial later."

Hong Meng raised his head in disbelief, and suddenly knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I have been wronged, I have been wronged..."

Habayashi Wei majestically went to the hall, set up Hong Meng on one left and one on the right, and quickly lifted him out.

Emperor Longyu glanced down and stopped on King Nanyang, "Although I am worried about the border defense, but I am still in the high wall, the small thief of Qin, betrayed his promise, disregarded the agreement of the four-nation alliance, and joined forces with Jiang to attack our border fortress. Now, the soldiers are suffering heavy casualties, and the common people are living in dire straits, I am a king in vain!"

"Your Majesty..." The courtiers below fell to their knees, and the mournful voice resounded through the hall.

King Nanyang straightened his waist and stepped forward, clasping his fists, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to Jiujiang to support Prince Rui and protect the people of Great Chu!"

"Okay, I will lead the people of the world, thank Uncle Wang for his righteousness!" Emperor Longyu got up and bowed deeply to King Nanyang.

In the autumn of Emperor Longyu's fifth year, the King of Nanyang led an army of 30 troops to support Jiujiang in the north. Since then, the war has intensified.

The city walls of Jiujiang were covered with kerosene. Jiang Guo couldn't attack for a long time, so he came up with a vicious idea. He threw fire bottles into the city with a speculative car, trying to trap everyone in the city alive.

Qu You slapped down the vermilion pen fiercely, put on a fashionable dress, and strode out of the Marshal's Mansion.

"Where is the marshal now?" Qu You turned around and asked.

"If you go back to the princess, the marshal is on the tower at this time, trying to find a way to retreat from the enemy." The guard did not dare to raise his head, and replied cautiously.

Qu You glanced at Lingyou, raised her legs and got on the carriage, "Go, go to the tower."

"master!"

Qu You thought for a moment, tightened her lower lip, and looked at Lingyou, "Go, go back to the mansion and get my Luyi Qin!"

Take the violin?The war is just a moment of anxiety, what's the use of taking the harp?Lingyou was puzzled and hesitated.

"Not yet..."

"Master, don't be annoyed, the servants will pass right away."

Qu You closed her eyes, tapped her index finger on the low table, and searched hard for inspiring lyrics.Half a moment later, she suddenly opened her eyes, and there was a little bit of starlight in her watery pupils.

Lingyou left very quickly, almost at the same time Qu You opened his eyes, the famous Luyi Qin was placed on the carriage, and along with the Guqin, there was also the 'giggle' straight Laughing fat doll.

"He... messed around!"

Lingyou lowered his head, allowing Qu You to beat and scold him.She had no choice, who would have thought that she would be entangled by the little prince just to go back to the mansion to get a piano.It's strange to say that Mother Jiang, who usually follows the master, has disappeared today, and she tried to get rid of her several times, but she was always found by the little prince.

Qu You lifted the curtain of the car and looked in the direction of the city wall, reached out and hugged Chu Xiangqi tightly, and kissed his immature face.In the dark, it seems that everything is already doomed.Everything is fate, it's not in the slightest!
"Let's go..."

Lingyou got into the carriage in silence, looked at the mother and son hugging each other in front of her, clenched her hands tightly, and lowered her eyes secretly.

The city tower was not far from the Marshal's Mansion, and the carriage galloped away, but it was only the effort of a cup of tea, and it stopped steadily.

The young defender of the city knew the sign of Prince Rui's Mansion, and saluted respectfully, and made way for him.

Qu You hugged Chu Xiangqi, straightened her back, and resolutely walked to the front, "Where is the marshal, take me there."

"Princess, you..." Qin Yufeng greeted him, and glanced at Chu Xiangqi in Qu You's arms from the corner of his eye.

"Birth is different, but when you want to die, you have the same acupuncture point." After Qu You finished speaking, he spared Qin Yufeng and climbed up to the tower of Jiujiang.

Under the city, the soldiers of the two countries fought desperately. The cold spear pierced through the body made of flesh and blood, and the blood everywhere stained Qu You's eyes. She turned around slowly, handed Chu Xiangqi into Lingyou's arms, and pulled out the green ripple Qin sat beside Chu Yu.

She doesn't know many songs, so I want to thank my mother for her careful cultivation of this song. She always said that she has too many skills and doesn't overwhelm her body. She didn't care too much about it.

Qu You flicked his hands over the body of the piano, plucked the strings lightly, and made a 'clank' sound.

Chu Yu looked back, the corners of his cold mouth curled up, and his eyes were full of affection.

Qu You closed her eyes, and the wailing from below poured into her ears. She sighed silently, and her red lips parted slightly, "The smoke rises, the mountains and rivers look north, the dragon rolls up, the horse neighs, the sword energy is like frost, and the heart is like the vastness of the Yellow River. , who can resist in 20 years, hates the direction of the sword, how many loyal brothers and sisters buried their bones in their hometown, why do they die to serve their homeland, and they are speechless with tears in their eyes, horseshoes go south, people look north, people Looking to the north, the grass is green and the yellow dust is flying, I am willing to defend the land and open up the frontier, and the majestic Chu will let the Quartet come to congratulate..."

Chu Yu pointed his long sword at the sky and shouted loudly: "Kill..."

"Kill, kill, kill..." Qin Yufeng took a step forward, and the roar of internal force resounded through half the sky.

As Qu You sang, his fingertips bled and his hands were numb.

The Great Chu State retreated steadily, and the 2 people who left the city were instantly surrounded, and they were about to be swallowed up. At the critical moment, Chu Xiangqi suddenly rushed to the xylophone, and stretched out his hand to pluck the strings.

"Zheng...Zheng..." The xylophone made a loud noise, interrupting Qu You's singing.

"Little prince!" Lingyou was shocked, quickly hugged Chu Xiangqi, and retreated to the corner of the tower.

Chu Yu closed his eyes, and was about to beat the drums to withdraw the soldiers, but saw that the soldiers below seemed to have taken a pill, and suddenly they were extremely brave, like a divine soldier from the sky, killing all directions, and killing one person with a single swing of a knife , He insisted on defeating the coalition forces of the two countries, which were several times more than the Chu army, and retreated quickly.

"Victory, we're victorious!" The roar from below woke up Qu You, she opened her eyes in confusion, and looked down with a xylophone in her arms.

"A thousand years for the marshal, a thousand years for the princess..." Everyone hugged and wept, and rushed to tell each other.

Chu Yu held Qu You's hand tightly, and hugged her tightly, "Thank God for sending you to my king's side."

Qu You's eyes were full of surprise, she glanced at Chu Xiangqi out of the corner of her eye, but saw his eyes roll and giggle happily.
