After time travel, I became a talented lady
Chapter 127 3 and
At Qingshui Pass, the army advanced deep into the enemy's territory alone, hiding during the day and traveling at night. Sure enough, one night when the sky was filled with dust, they found the place where the Tata tribe was stationed.
Taking advantage of the dead of night and the enemy's slackness, Daqi's soldiers rushed forward and packed the large white tent in the middle like dumplings, making it impossible to get in or out.
The general Chen Qian, who led the army, smiled so much that his white teeth sparkled in the night. It worked! There was hope for promotion!
The soldiers of the Tata tribe could never have imagined that the soldiers of Daqi would dare to go deep into the heart of the desert. They were sleeping soundly when suddenly an unexpected soldier came from the sky and chopped them up like cutting vegetables, silently. Therefore, the army of Daqi rushed to the tent guarding the king's tent, and then the soldiers of the Tata tribe reacted!
There were fireworks everywhere, shouts of killing, and the howling of ghosts and wolves.
The leader of the Tata tribe suddenly woke up because he had to pee urgently. As soon as he opened his eyes, the tent was opened and his personal guards rushed forward to hold him down!
"Chief, it's bad, the enemy is coming! Go!"
The leader of the Tata tribe was so scared that he almost peed himself. He stretched his head and looked outside. God wants to kill me. No, as long as there is a green mountain, there is no fear of running out of firewood. There are still my troops stationed in Tuerling. I will fight back! I will run away first~
"Chief, please take my concubine with you~" The concubine who was so tender, sweet, lovely and pitiful last night now rushed towards the chief naked. The chief didn't even look at her, but kicked the delicate white jade-like body to the ground, lifted the fur on the rack, wrapped her up in a hurry and ran out of the tent!
More than a dozen personal guards risked their lives and finally fought their way out and rescued the leader.
When Chen Qian and Song Qi fought out, they found that the leader had escaped. However, the spoils were still huge. The leader's wife, children, and elderly mother were all captured, as well as countless baggage carriages. It was a complete victory!
All the generals were very happy. After all these years of being in a cowardly state, this year they could finally hold their heads high and show off!
When Emperor Yuanwu heard the news, he felt greatly relieved. Look, there is no kingdom that I cannot conquer!
The leader of the Tata tribe fled overnight, eating only coarse food along the way, and finally ran to Tuerling. When he arrived at the camp, he saw that his brothers were drunk and had gained a lot of weight. How could they mount their horses and carry their guns? !
During the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Daqi Dynasty, it was too cowardly. The Tata tribe won battles one after another, resulting in the brothers of Tuerling having no place to use their troops. The brothers only plundered and played around for fun. In the past, they just ate, drank, gambled, and had their hands and feet worn out!
A hero never suffers a loss in front of him. Even King Gou Jian of Yue was still sleeping on firewood and tasting gall!
The leader of the Tata tribe raised a small white flag overnight. I surrender and am willing to be a vassal of Daqi. I will pay tribute every year and ask Daqi to show its great power and release my mother, wife and children. We will live in peace and prosperity together.
Emperor Yuanwu held the state letter which looked like a ghost painting, and his expression was very mysterious.
The servant was extremely frightened. He didn't know whether to kneel down or stand up straight. He had to bend over and hold his breath. It was so uncomfortable!
Cheng Deqing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, don't pursue a desperate enemy. Since Daqi has enhanced its national prestige, the rest of the country should rest and develop the economy! As Daqi is strong and the people are rich, foreign enemies will naturally not dare to invade again!"
Cao Lu also echoed, "Yes, yes," Wen Zhonghan from the Ministry of Revenue was almost scratching his head bald, and he was numb when he heard people whispering about food and fodder in his ear...
Song Qi, Chen Qian and other generals were quite unconvinced. Chen Qian was straightforward and stared straight into Cheng Deqing's eyes.
"Sir Cheng is the top scholar, and his literary talent is superior to ours, but I am afraid he is not as good as me in terms of battlefield affairs. In my opinion, we must attack Huanglong in one fell swoop and prevent the Tata tribe from reviving."
"But we must do what we can when sending troops to fight. Daqi is now in dire straits and the people are suffering. This success is all due to taking risky moves, which were beyond the enemy's expectations. If we continue to pursue, not to mention the horsepower and manpower, Daqi will not be able to afford the cost. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"
Cao Lu also echoed.
Emperor Yuanwu then looked again at the attendant holding the box. The attendant felt relieved and quietly retreated.
When the good news from Qingshui Pass reached Shangjing City, the people were excited and proud.
The rich and powerful in the city happily lit up fireworks, which made a crackling sound and the atmosphere was even more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
The operas were also arranged in the opera theater. The common people in the imperial city and below were all in high spirits, and they could even sing a few lines from the opera.
Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu Yun, one was calculating the income of South Beauty, and was very happy; the other was calculating that her husband would return soon, and was very affectionate, and was very happy.
Liu Yunniang simply ordered all the materials in the warehouse to be moved out, and bought summer clothes for everyone.
"Oh, Madam, please don't just focus on us. You should also buy some bright clothes. It's a good thing that the Second Master is back. It's a pleasure to see him." Cui'er was silly and her words hit the nail on the head.
"I heard that the silk shop has just received a batch of Ning Zhu gauze, which is worth a thousand gold coins and is not inferior to Jiao Qiao gauze. The wives of officials are lining up to make reservations. I also sent Xiao Huan to make an appointment yesterday. The female shopkeeper will probably come to measure the clothes today." Ru Ping also interjected with a smile.
Speak of the devil, here he comes, the doorman bringing the female manager of the silk shop to the door.
Several pieces of pearl gauze were hung on the shelves in the living room, sparkling and dazzling.
Liu Yunniang carefully looked at these expensive goods. They were exquisite and gorgeous. If they were made into large-sleeved shirts and worn on the street, they would be the most beautiful thing in the capital. There would be no one more dazzling than this within ten miles. She was a little embarrassed. She thought that people should be more low-key. Isn't this too ostentatious?
"Not ostentatious, not ostentatious. Madam is very noble and beautiful. This pearl gauze makes Madam look even more like a fairy. The two complement each other. How can it be ostentatious? Madam, look~"
"Your skin is as white as jade. When you put on this pearl gauze, you will look like a fairy with bright eyes, white teeth, and fair skin."
The shopkeeper spoke eloquently, and he gestured with the pearly gauze for a while, praising Liu Yunniang as if she were a fairy descended from earth. Liu Yunniang was deeply moved.
It's really beautiful. As long as it's not too ostentatious, which woman doesn't want to be beautiful every day?
Liu Yunniang waved her hand with great generosity, "Buy! Cui'er~"
The shopkeeper's face suddenly lit up with a smile, "I'm not saying this, Madam is the most dashing and beautiful person I've ever seen~"
Liu Yunniang was so confused that she decided everything in a daze.
Anyway, when my husband comes back, he will like my beauty and will definitely love me like a treasure, hehe~
The whole city was happy, but Princess Wenhui in the harem was the only one who was trembling with dismay.
Along with the good news, there was also an imperial edict requesting for marriage, and Wen Hui was going to marry.
Even though her mother was locked up in the cold palace, and her second brother and third prince were stripped of their titles and imprisoned, she still held on to hope. No matter what, she was a princess, she had no fight for the throne, and had never participated in a palace coup. Although she was not as noble as Pengcheng in her life, she was also the only two princesses of the retired emperor.
And when her later proposal for peace through marriage was rejected by the new emperor, she became more and more grateful.
She even naively thought, could it be that the emperor still treated her like a sister? Otherwise, why would the new emperor abandon such a convenient way to maintain diplomatic relations since ancient times? !
But before she could be happy, the decree of marriage arrived in her palace.
It was like the sky was falling apart, the earth was splitting, the sea was crying and the rocks were exploding!
The leader of the Tata tribe is over 40 years old and can be her father. How can she bear to sleep in the same bed with him and have children with him!
Wen Hui had no choice but to run to Kunning Palace to ask the Queen for mercy.
Queen Xia leaned on the couch holding the child in her arms and said lazily, "Just tell her that I'm tired and let her go back."
"Yes."
Princess Pengcheng sat aside, seemingly not hearing anything. She poked the baby's chubby face with her slender fingers and smiled in amazement, "Sister-in-law, I saw him with chapped skin a few days ago, but he looks different today. A baby born in March really changes in an instant."
Queen Xia looked at the little prince in her arms lovingly, carefully tracing the baby's eyebrows and eyes, "The eyes are becoming more and more like the emperor's."
"That's right. The Imperial Grandmother also said that he will be like my brother and will grow up to be a handsome man."
Queen Xia pursed her lips and smiled. How could the emperor be such a gentleman? Whenever they were together in the palace, she always cried more and laughed less. At that time, he seemed to be more satisfied and complacent the more she begged and cried.
Thinking of this, a blush appeared on Queen Xia's dignified and fair face. Afraid that the palace maids and the imperial sister would laugh at her, she quickly raised her fan to block the sun.
Princess Pengcheng did not suspect anything and just stared at the little guy. "He moved. Oh, he is so small."
The little prince stretched out his hands, yawned delicately, and opened and closed his eyes.
Queen Xia couldn't help laughing at her sister-in-law's startled expression. "You used to be like a fairy, not caring about worldly matters. Now that I have given birth to a child, you have fallen into the mortal world."
Princess Pengcheng was stunned when she heard this, and her face turned red. "Sister-in-law, please don't make fun of me. If you make fun of me again, I won't come again."
Still the little girl's love.
Queen Xia thought about how cold and as cold as ice she was in front of the retired emperor, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She looked down at the child sleeping soundly in her arms, and couldn't help but feel lucky for him.
Wen Hui went to the Cining Palace again to ask for an audience with the Empress Dowager.
After listening to Wen Hui's request, the Empress Dowager could only comfort her and told her to accept it as this was her fate as a royal princess.
She doesn't accept it!
Since they are both princesses, why shouldn't Pengcheng be the one to marry?!
These words were on Princess Wen Hui's lips, but she held back and didn't say them out loud.
Wen Hui had no choice but to go to Shangyuan Palace to ask for an audience with the retired emperor.
The emperor looked at his daughter, who had been spoiled since childhood and now looked miserable and no longer innocent, and sighed that fate was fickle and could only comfort Wen Hui.
"Since the Tata tribe is seeking peace, they will certainly treat you with dignity. As long as your royal brother is alive, you will have a good life."
No matter how unwilling Princess Wen Hui was, she knew that there was no way back on this matter. The person who used to be naive and arrogant would now think things over carefully.
"Yes, I understand. I have an unwelcome request, and I hope your Majesty will approve it."
The emperor was a soft-hearted person. Seeing the girl he had grown up with being so sensible and obedient, he felt sad and said with a smile, "As long as it's not an unreasonable request, I will agree to it."
Princess Wen Hui lowered her eyelashes. "Even if Concubine Lin committed a capital crime, she is still my mother. We are mother and daughter. If I marry far away, I am afraid we will never see each other again in this life. I beg you, father, to allow me to meet her once. Then I will die without regrets."
The retired emperor was stunned and glanced at Eunuch Debao. Seeing that he also raised his eyebrows, he knew that they were thinking the same thing.
"If you had told her earlier, she would probably be even more unhappy. It would be better if you said goodbye before leaving."
It is better to be safe than sorry. Although the Lin family can no longer cause any trouble, Brother Hao is not in the palace, so it is better for all the elderly, the weak, women and children in the palace to be cautious.
Wen Hui bit her lips tightly, tears almost falling, "Yes, my daughter knows."
She bowed her head, without even looking at Renzong, and hurriedly retreated.
Renzong and Eunuch Debao looked at each other and both sighed at the same time.
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
Renzong was stunned and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "In the past, she was spoiled and willful, which gave me a headache. Now she is so sensible and pitiful, which makes me sad."
Eunuch Debao was busy trying to comfort her, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. You should be happy that Princess Wenhui has grown up. Since ancient times, princesses marrying to foreign countries have brought blessings to the people. This is a good story. What's more, this time it's a marriage proposal. The tribal leader will definitely not let the princess down."
"I hope so."
I only hope that the world will be peaceful, the harem will be harmonious, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and that the Great Qi will be passed down for a hundred years.
