Chapter 41: Emperor Yuelu
After Xu Buling came out of the city, he rode his horse upstream along the banks of the Baihe River and soon arrived at the mouth of Fengshan River.
This time, the battle against Xiangyang was led to the war, and the basic position was still in Nanyang. The tower ships naturally remained in the stable rear and would not follow them directly to Xiangyang.
It was too hot at noon, and the girls on the boat were all staying in the house. Eunuch Jia and Manzhi found a cool location by the river to fish, and crossed the channel to chat about the world and the world.
There should be no commander in the army, so Xu Buling immediately had to chase the army. He didn't have much time to stay, so he simply flew into the tower without disturbing the girls.
When I passed by the tea hall, I found Cui Xiaowan, who liked to be alone, was brewing flower tea in the tea hall alone.
The building is full of female family members, and the weather is hot, so they are not so particular about their clothes. Cui Xiaowan only wore a moon-white gauze skirt, which looked like a vacuum inside, bent over, making the skirt on her buttocks collapse tightly, revealing flesh-colored, and almost even the texture of her skin can be seen. !
Xu Buling paused in a hurry, turned his head and glanced at him, but saw Cui Xiaowan making tea while humming the little song he taught to the baby:
"The mouth of the wolf smoke and wind and sand~ Please drink less~ The road ahead is not easy to walk~ I'll be waiting at home..."
The voice is three-point natural and childish, and the back is even more pleasing to the eye.
Xu Buling was a little funny, so he glanced at his upturned buttocks carefully. He wanted to ask Xiaowan who she was waiting for at home, but time was really in a hurry, so I'd better forget it.
When he came outside the living room, Xu Buling raised his hand to call Xiao Qi out and kept saying a word.
Soon, Xiao Qi stood up and walked out of the living room. Seeing Xu Buling standing in the corridor, she was a little confused:
"Husband, why did you run back? Have you forgotten to get something?"
Xu Buling thought for a while, took Xiao Qi's hand, went to the study room on the second floor, took out Fu Bao's grandfather's letter, told what he had just said:
"This sentence must be for Song Ji. I would rather be a toy under my knee than be Song Ji's queen; if Song Ji saw this, I would be embarrassed not to dismember my six horses."
Xiao Qi took the note and sat down on the Taishi chair behind the desk with her legs crossed, her eyes slightly strange:
"You have brought you home with the Queen Mother. You can't keep the fire. Sooner or later, there will be such a day, but you dare not act as a result?"
Xu Buling spread his hands: "What dares not do, Miss Cui and I are innocent and have not done anything yet..."
Xiao Qi didn't believe it at all: "It's useless to say this to me, the emperor must believe it. Cui Xiaowan left Taohua Valley, and since someone gave it regularly, the Cui family would definitely find out. But this matter was harmful to the Cui family but not beneficial. It must be that the Cui family wanted to tell the emperor the news...
...I guess right, it was probably the last time you and Cui Xiaowan met Song Ying in the eastern suburbs of Chang'an. The emperor found clues, so he specially sent someone to Peach Blossom Valley to check. So sooner or later, the emperor will know about this news. Grandpa Fubao just pushed him behind his back, so that Song Ji didn't have to check it around, and just lifted the table with you."
Xu Buling thought for a while: "Although there will be such a day sooner or later, it will directly add fuel to the fire, and it feels a bit...unstable."
Xiao Qi put down the note and shook her head: "In the prosperous era, we need to simmer the country in a warm and slow simmering situation, and peace and stability in troubled times must be carried out. Wars in the north and south of the Mo River were everywhere. In just half a year, it destroyed the treasury savings that Song Ji had been in power for nearly ten years, and now it has begun to burn the family of the late emperor. The four kings in the east recruited troops and grain, and no one cultivated the farmland. After the autumn, the food was stored and eaten, famine followed one after another. We can afford to drag it down, but the people can't. Grandpa Fubao fanned the flames and wanted to push you and Song Ji to run away. It is reasonable."
Xu Buling naturally knew that fighting would hurt national strength. He thought for a while: "What would Song Ji react to knowing that he would become 'Yue Green Emperor'."
Xiao Qi didn't understand why, but she could tell the meaning from Xu Buling's expression and raised her eyebrows:
"If it were you, what would you do?"
"He was given the ashes."
"That's all, but Song Ji will definitely not throw your ashes openly. After all, this matter is shameful. You can lead troops to attack Xiangyang first. I will pay more attention these days and think of countermeasures and write to you."
Xu Buling nodded. Time was tight and he didn't stay for a long time. He turned around and went out... ——
Outside Nanyang City, three thousand Xiliang troops were in front and nearly 20,000 government troops were in the back, and they marched on the plain in a mighty manner.
Suddenly, I had to go out to Xiangyang. The soldiers who had just trained for a few months were obviously all cheering in my heart. Although after Xu Buling's "chicken blood" day after day, I would not be afraid to move forward, the soldiers of the government knew the difficulty of Xiangyang. With 20,000 people running to fight, it felt that it was no different from going to die.
At this time, the two imperial generals of the palace soldiers came to Xu Ying and asked questions about everything and wanted Xu Ying to understand the truth.
Xu Ying would definitely not tell the generals of the military soldiers about his Xiliang Army. If the news leaked, it would lose the effect of the surprise attack. At this time, he looked mysterious and unfathomable, such as "the master helped the war, the Fire God came to the world" and so on, and he was fooled.
Behind the army, mules and horses followed with food, supplies and supplies.
Zhongli Jiujiu and Zhongli Chuchu were sitting in the carriage, and they were not idle when they marched, and they were still preparing various medicines.
Outside the carriage, Ning Yu sat on the horse in light armor; Ning Qingye was dressed in the same dress and walked in front.
Since leaving the city, Ning Qingye has never spoken again, just staring at the sea of people ahead without saying a word.
There was nothing else to do except for the warning surroundings for a long-distance marching. Ning Yuhe followed him for a while and gradually realized that Ning Qingye was not in a good mood. She rode to her apprentice and spoke softly:
"Qingye, why don't you talk? Do you want to get into the carriage and rest for a while?"
Ning Qingye did not turn his head and looked at the wilderness outside the official road, his voice was dull:
"No, I didn't sleep well last night, I'll take a rest after camping."
Although it is still as quiet as before, the feeling of coldness and indifference is obviously different.
Ning Yuhe felt the slightest distantness, and for no reason, she was not sure. She just said that Qingye was in a bad state, so she stopped disturbing her and walked behind the carriage, allowing Qingye to calm down alone.
The team had been moving for about an hour, and Xu Buling, who had finished talking with Xiao Qi, came from behind.
Step on
The familiar sound of horse hooves went from far to near, and Ning Qingye's body tightened significantly, but the armor was covered with her body, and there was no difference at all. She gently clamped the horse's belly and walked forward along the side of the team.
Xu Buling was still thinking about the matter of Emperor Yuelu Song Ji. He came to the carriage and greeted Jiujiu Chuchu Yu. Seeing that Ning Qingye had not come, he came to Ning Qingye.
Ning Qingye's heart suddenly became confused, "You bastard who bullies the master and destroys the ancestors" was about to come out, but she was leading troops to fight. Even though she felt a lot of anger and grievance in her heart, she was just pressing her heart. She still endured it without any expression and turned her eyes to the other side.
This has always been the case with each other in the past. Xu Buling also felt that there was something wrong, and he was about to put it in a smile:
"Qingye, why don't you pay attention to me?"
Ning Qingye held the reins tightly, turned his head and glanced at Xu Buling, his voice was dull:
"I'm having a period of time, I don't want to talk." ?
Xu Buling was stunned and secretly calculated the time: "It's not time yet. Why don't you let Jiujiu show you?"
Ning Qingye's eyes were slightly condensed, but soon he was covered by indifference again and shook his head:
"No. Go and do your business, I'm fine."
Xu Buling had to go and meet with the leader Xu Ying, comforting him, "Okay, just talk to me any time you have something to do", and drove the horse and walked quickly to the front.
Ning Qingye sat on the horse, looked at Xu Buling's back, and then looked back at the side face of Master. Suddenly, the scene of Xu Buling drawing chakra sand for Master suddenly appeared in his mind.
