Sang Tianjiao girl is a little sweet

Chapter 823
In the Eastern Palace, Hua Qian was lying on the imperial concubine chair, feeding the koi in the pond while listening to Ying Yi talking about the incident in the court.

It was very depressing to learn that all the ministers participated in Yue Xia's performance because of the moat bursting.

"These ministers are really busy, not thinking about how to solve the problem, but they are always holding on to A Yue's mistakes, offending the prince, what good is it for them!"

Standing beside Hua Qian, Ying Yi bowed his head and said, "I'm afraid the person behind can't sit still."

Hua Qian put down the food for the fish, and looked back at Ying Yidao: "There are not many ministers in the court who support A Yue, why can't the person behind him sit still?"

The corners of Ying Yi's lips raised slightly, and he explained: "The little master doesn't know, although there are not many ministers who support the crown prince, there are only Lord Zhang, Marquis Xiaowu, and Prince Ping's son, but these three are not simple.

As a civil servant, Mr. Zhang has quite a few disciples. Although there are only two or three officials in the court, there are his students in all the major states and capitals of Daqi, which should not be underestimated.

Xiaowuhou's Mansion is not simple, it is the title of marquis proclaimed by the first emperor, hereditary.

Although the Wuhou Mansion experienced ups and downs during this period, it still stood firm.In Xiaowuhou's generation, there are many talented people, and the most outstanding one is not a man from the Xiao family, but a concubine lady. "

When Ying Yi talked about this passage, his eyes sparkled, and Hua Qian's curiosity also burst out.

"Is the concubine of the Xiao family the older sister or younger sister of Marquis Xiaowu?" Hua Qian asked.

"That Miss Di is Xiao Wuhou's elder sister and the eldest daughter of the Xiao family. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also knowledgeable and resourceful.

When she was 16 years old, Mobei invaded the border of Daqi, and the old Hou Ye was sent by the first emperor to escort the grain and grass.

After Miss Xiao knew about it, she was very worried, because she knew her father's ability, and it would be absolutely no problem to simply transport grain from one city to another, but it would be difficult to transport grain and grass all the way to the war-torn border crossing. Task.

But the first emperor's imperial edict has been issued, so the old Hou Ye can only obey the order.

So, Miss Xiao had no choice but to disguise herself as a man and followed the old Hou Ye in the army ration escort team. Unexpectedly, Xiao Wuhou discovered her sister's secret and followed her quietly.

Sure enough, there was a situation on the road. First, the bandits came to rob the grain, and then some people with ulterior motives who didn't want the grain to be sent to the border set fire at night, intending to burn the grain.

However, they were all resolved by Miss Xiao's resourcefulness.

However, the closer to the border, the more dangerous situations encountered, and the old Hou Ye finally found out that his daughter and son were mixed in the food protection team, so he was angry and anxious.

It is impossible to drive them back, after all, the way back is not safe.If someone escorts them, I'm afraid that the military rations will not be able to be sent to the border.

In desperation, he took them to the border together.Fortunately, Lord Hou made this decision, otherwise he and the soldiers escorting the rations would all be finished! "

Hearing this, Hua Qian wanted to know what happened next, "Hurry up and talk!"

Ying Yi didn't dare to procrastinate, and continued: "That night, the team was resting in a dense forest, but encountered a surprise attack by Mobei cavalry.

There were no more than a hundred soldiers escorting the rations, but there were a full 300 cavalry in Mobei. With such a disparity in strength, the soldiers of Daqi were naturally invincible. More than half of them were killed or injured, and all those who survived were captured.

The general leading the army in Mobei was very proud of seeing Daqi's soldiers so vulnerable, so he was not in a hurry to leave with food and grass. Instead, he rested on the spot and ordered Daqi's soldiers to cook and pour wine for them.

Daqi soldiers were naturally unwilling, and they would have to be hacked to death by Mobei barbarians. Seeing this, Miss Xiao recommended herself to cook for them.

When Xiaowuhou saw it, he also went to help.

Old Hou Ye knew that his daughter was a planner, so he brought others to cook with her.

Meals for 300 people are so easy to cook, not to mention other things, it takes half an hour to collect firewood alone.When the meals are ready, the sky is approaching dawn, which is also the most sleepy time for people.

Most of the soldiers in Mobei had already fallen asleep unknowingly, and the leading general didn't care at first, only thinking that they were sleepy, but when the number of people got more and more, they realized that something was wrong.

He ordered the cavalry who were still awake to kill Xiao Wuhou and others, but unfortunately it was too late. Not only could the Mobei cavalry not kill Xiao Wuhou and others, but the entire army was wiped out. "

Hua Qian was very excited when she heard it, and asked, "But Miss Xiao did something wrong while cooking?"

Ying Yi smiled and said: "Young master's guess is right. When Miss Xiao was picking up firewood, she discovered water lily grass. This water lily grass has two major effects. The leaves are refreshing when you put them in your mouth, and the smoke from the roots when they burn Qi, even a cow can sleep for a day and a night after smelling it, let alone a human being.

Miss Xiao took advantage of these two effects of the water lily grass, not only brought down most of the soldiers in Mobei, but also kept the soldiers of Daqi awake, which is wonderful! "

Ying Yi also admired this legendary Miss Xiao, but it was a pity that she was born at an untimely time, so she couldn't meet her.

"There are many enemies and we are few, and Miss Xiao can calmly outwit and wipe out all the barbarians in Mobei, which is really admirable!" Hua Qian praised from the bottom of her heart.

After hearing this, Yingyi agreed, but said with full regret: "It's a pity that the concubine died at the age of seventeen."

This result surprised Hua Qian, she stared at Ying Yi in disbelief, "How could you die so early?"

"Speaking of which, the old Marquis didn't think well enough. When submitting the book to the late Emperor, he pushed the credit for Miss Xiao's achievements to Marquis Xiaowu.

When the first emperor learned of Longyan Dayue, he bestowed Xiaowuhou as the deputy general of Yuqian Yubayashiwei. This was a position that many people wanted, but it was taken by the fourteen-year-old Xiaowuhou. Naturally, some people were dissatisfied.

The young and energetic Marquis Xiao Wu still doesn't know the reason that the officialdom is like a battlefield. When he went out to socialize with his colleagues, he even talked about the events of the day after getting drunk.

The matter was soon learned by the first emperor, and Longyan was so angry that he ordered someone to beat Xiaowuhou's board, and the old Hou was even thrown into a prison.

Later, it was the current emperor who interceded with King Xuan, and the late emperor let Laohou and Xiaowuhou go, but ordered Miss Xiao to enter the palace to face the saint.

The first emperor who met Miss Xiao had already decided in his heart to marry her to the then crown prince.It's just that the imperial decree has not yet reached the Xiao family, but Miss Xiao already knows about it.

At that time, she already had a crush on someone, and she heard that he was a poor scholar, and she met when Huliang was going to the border. Because of her outstanding literary talent, profound knowledge, generous and forthright personality, she was favored by Miss Xiao.

The two of them were brothers at first, and later when Miss Xiao came back from the border and passed by the town where the poor scholar was, she showed off her female attire.

Poor Xiucai was both surprised and happy, because after he separated from Miss Xiao, he often missed him, and he was not happy to learn that Miss Xiao was a woman.

However, despite being happy, he also knew the distance between them, so he made an agreement with Miss Xiao that he would take part in the imperial examination next year, and if he passed the top three in the imperial examination, he would come to propose marriage.

Miss Xiao knew what he was thinking, so she said that as long as he passed the Jinshi examination, she would marry him.

But who would have thought that the first emperor would marry her and the crown prince. "Speaking of this, Ying Yi sighed lightly.
