Concubine Tang through space

Chapter 55

A few days later, before lunch time in the morning, Li Shimin slipped Su Lin from the training team into the military tent, handed Su Lin a task list, and said, "Go and try your skills."

Su Lin stood in front of the desk and looked at the contents of the paper in her hand. There were about 700 robbers in the rock mountain, with insufficient equipment, and their combat strength was between the mob and the elite soldiers. They were comparable to ordinary militiamen. Half a month ago, because of killing two rich households in Yancheng, the prefect of Yancheng angered the prefect of Yancheng. The prefect invited five hundred elite soldiers from the Northern Hebei Army to prepare to completely wipe out this group of bandits. Participated as a lieutenant, did not lead the troops and did not obey orders, fought alone as a training, how many bandits killed were counted as military merits, recorded in the Ministry of War, after a while, she felt that there was no problem, so she nodded and said: "Yes, I promise to complete the task. "

"Ah."

When she arrived in Yancheng, she took Shan Zheng and took the military order document Li Shimin gave her and her own military badge to meet with the general who led the battle this time. After a little understanding of the attack time, general attack route and combat strategy, she went to the station to rest Four days later, she set off to Yanshan together with the [-] troops. The soldiers and bandits had casualties after several times of mutual inspection. She didn't lose her mind either, and her heart became colder and harder as she raised and retracted the knife again and again.

In the afternoon of that day, the two sides fought in a small valley. The killing intent aroused by thousands of people in the battle gave Su Lin a wonderful feeling, fire in the water, flames in the ice, the heart is cold but the brain is hot, and the internal force is running When the strength is constant, the feeling is endless, and in the middle of the battle, the wonderful feeling seems to have reached a certain climax. When she slashed and killed a person with a horizontal knife, a gray-black breath suddenly floated from that person. At the same time, the poison law in her Tianling acupuncture point moved.

While cleaning up the people around her, she slowed down the movements of her hands, and manipulated the law of poison to make it float 20 inches in front of her. Every time she killed a person, a wisp of gray-black breath floated from the corpse , was instantly absorbed by the law of poison, and after more than ten times, a flash of understanding flashed in her heart, and she knew that the gray-black breath was death energy, and the law of poison could absorb purer death energy as nourishment besides poison in the orthodox sense.

After the battle, the enemy captured more than 200 people. She had no right to intervene, and returned to the city with the army. After returning to the Xuanjia army barracks, it was already dusk on the day of arrival. The setting sun was like a huge duck egg yolk, exuding a lukewarm orange light.

Ordering Shanzheng to deal with trivial matters, she went directly back to Li Shimin's camp. There were lights and candles hanging in front of the study room door, indicating that Li Shimin was still dealing with various affairs inside. Looking at the hard cloth door, she was stunned. , suddenly felt that he was not working hard enough, and approached for a moment: "My lord!"

"...Come in." Li Shimin frowned and glanced at the brochure he was reading, put it down for a while, and looked up at Su Lin who came in. Seeing that the clothes on Su Lin were clean and tidy, there was no sign of bandaging. Lin was not injured this time, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "How is it? Are you used to fighting and practicing martial arts?"

Su Lin nodded, walked to the three steps in front of the table and stood still, she smiled a little when she heard the words, and said, "Return to the lord, my subordinates are very adaptable, and hope to have more opportunities to participate in the battle."

Li Shimin also laughed, feeling expected. "It's good to be able to adapt. There are many opportunities for this." Now, the forces that have arisen from the turmoil of the Sui Yang family to the establishment of the Tang Li family have not been completely settled down. In many places, there are still forces against the Tang Li family who want to stand on their own. What is lacking is the combat that can train warriors, and what is lacking is warrior talents who can control violence with violence.

Since then, Su Lin has often received some missions to go to various places to participate in small-scale battles. Sometimes she and Shan Zheng are alone on the road, and sometimes they go on the road with the large troops of the Xuanjia Army. There are more and more, and by the end of the year, he will be a sixth-rank Lieutenant Zhaowu. According to the law, he is qualified to lead a thousand to 7000 people to command operations in the ordinary army. official position.

Changsun would immediately adjust her treatment in the palace every time her military rank was promoted, and she asked Lianniang to exchange most of the rewarded finances into gold and silver for the funds needed for the medicinal materials and herb seeds that the Su family gave her. .

In mid-December, the Changsun family arrived at the expected date of delivery and sent Li Kuan back to Qi Yuan. When she got the news, she followed Li Shimin back to the palace from the military camp to look after Li Kuan. A few days later, the Changsun family gave birth to the fourth prince Li Tai, and Li Shimin went to the palace that day. Not in the mansion, she took the concubines and servants of the palace to receive the three imperial edicts from the palace to make Li Tai the king of Yidu, Li Luo the king of Changsha County, and Li Kuan the king of Nanyue County. After that, she and Yang Xixian After congratulating the eldest grandson in the delivery room, and congratulating each other, they returned to Qiyuan with Lianniang and others with the imperial decree to seal Li Kuan.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, she sat cross-legged on the bed, frowning, thinking about it, her strength has steadily increased, and she has more autonomy. Previously, Li Kuan only had the name of a prince and no title, so as long as there are enough people around him, it is enough. There is no problem with her arrangement, but now that Li Kuan suddenly has the title of Cong Yipin County King, the people around him who should be matched are very different from before, and the number of people who pay attention to Li Kuan will definitely increase a lot. The concubine's room treated the county king badly, and nine out of ten would give her enough servants to sell her body, and remind her to arrange people around Li Kuan.

According to the rules, Li Kuan must have at least four first-class maids, four first-class wives, four first-class eunuchs, and four nurses by his side. If she wants to serve Li Kuan personally, she must not accept the second-class match sent by the Changsun family. Double the third-class women and maids, etc., but they can't serve Li Kuan closely, so don't worry too much.

She has already weaned Li Kuan, so there is no need for the nanny to think about it. The four first-class maids can be transferred from the Su family. Well, it's not enough for her to transfer Jing Liu Jingyan there, she has to dig someone from Su's family with a clear background, and she can only be completely idle after waiting for the eunuch, she can't let someone she doesn't believe in be close Serve Li Kuan.

After making up her mind, Su Lin went to practice in the space. After breakfast, she counted the congratulatory gifts for the Changsun family, and told Lianniang, "Go to Su's house and tell Qiongniang about Li Kuan's situation. Once again, let her prepare four wives and two maids for Li Kuan to use within half a month, people can be dull, but their backgrounds must be innocent for us."

"Yes."

At the end of January, Su Lin asked Qiongniang to secretly send the person prepared by Qiongniang to Qin Wangfu even with his deed of sale under her arrangement, and temporarily placed them in her Qiyuan. After entering the main courtyard, he asked about Changsun's body, and then he talked about Li Kuan. "...Kuan'er is growing up and making a lot of noise. People around him always look down on him, so I want to pick more people. Don't be clever. Honestly, just don't attract Kuan'er. Let the princess be the master."

Regarding Su Lin's bringing the servants of the Su family into the palace, Changsun knew about it when she was the first person to enter the palace. Because Li Kuan needed it, and the number was not large and within the controllable range, she didn't stop her, and she was also in her heart. Knowing the purpose of Su Lin's visit to her today, the relationship between her and Su Lin has reached a relatively balanced point to a certain extent, and it cannot and does not need to be broken for the time being. Su Lin has already thought about Li Kuan's matter. Well, she was happy to fulfill it directly. "Well, if Ruren likes the servant, he can send someone to report to the big steward, and he can go to the big steward to get as much as he needs."

"Thank you, princess."

On the way back to Qiyuan, Su Lin asked Lianniang to take the deeds of sale of the people Qiongniang sent in to report to the big housekeeper, and she took the people to the place where Gao Yu lived. It's the expected date of delivery. According to the doctor, there are still two of them. As for whether it's twins or twins, it can't be diagnosed, and the belly is a bit scary.

Seeing Gao Yu's flabbergasted face and footsteps moving in the yard, she obviously wanted to have a smooth delivery, Su Lin felt a little emotional, and only hoped that Qianxi, who was a bit messy, wouldn't be such a jerk this time, even though You can't give Gao Yu old age, at least don't care too much about Gao Yu's mood when you were young. Anyway, Gao Yu has been pregnant for nine and a half months, and she has suffered too much.

At the end of January, Gao Mei gave birth to twins Xin Qi and Xin Ya all day and all night. Both fetuses were very small, but their skin was fair and ruddy. They are equally loud, but both of them can only drool and sleep, so that Su Lin can't tell who is Qianxi and who is Gao Yu's real daughter.

Fearing that things might change, she was supposed to hand over Li Kuan to the Changsun family and return to the barracks. She asked Li Shimin for a month's leave, and stayed in the palace every day by Gao Mi and the twins' side. After blocking many open and dark arrows from Xiaoyan, Jin and even Yin, it was not until the evening of the tenth day that Qianxi called out to Su Lin with a very weak consciousness.

Su Lin looked at the two fetuses, saw Li Shimin's eldest daughter, Xin Qi, nodding her little head, and made a habitual movement before Qianxi, curling her lips, and then she laughed, and replied to Qianxi consciously: "It feels like reincarnation. how?"

"It's really a pain." Qianxi said weakly: "I'm fine now, but my sister's fate is too shallow, and the evil spirit on you is too strong. Yesterday, I almost shocked my sister's soul and made her lose her life. You Don't stay by our side if you have nothing to do." After a pause, he said in amazement, "What have you been doing this year? How did you kill so many people and bear so much evil spirit?"

"Can't you inquire about the situation outside the mother's body during your reincarnation?" Su Lin was also a little puzzled. Didn't Qianxi know the outside world when she was in Yan Yu's body?
Qianxi snorted softly, and explained: "I almost exhausted my divine power by using reincarnation and life-gathering techniques. I was basically half-asleep and half-awake before I was born. These days, I used Qingluan's fate to recover a little bit. I have gained a little bit of divine power, and I can talk to you, so I don’t have the spare energy to find out.”

"Oh." Nodding her head, Su Lin roughly told Qian Xi about her coming and going to the barracks to practice martial arts and breakthroughs, except for the situation of the law of poison, and finally said: "I will be relieved when you are sober and able to practice." , after a few months, I still need you to find a way to take care of her."

"what happened?"

"The news from Meng Qian said that Wang Shichong occupied Yuzhou. He was originally Taiwei Shangshuling. Now in Luoyang, he is planning to proclaim himself emperor and change the country name to Zheng. The momentum is quite large. The court will finalize the plan to send troops in March and April at the latest. The prince I also want to seize the military power, but Meng Qian and I feel that the chance of success is not high. If the prince leads the army, I will follow. Wang Shichong's entire army has 10,000+, and it is not easy to defeat. I am afraid that the march will take a long time and the mansion will change. , spread to Kuan'er."
