After rebirth, I made the princes cry

After starting to think independently, Yingshu first thought of Madam Wei's special status. Although Madam Wei had no power to transfer the palace guards, she was responsible for the trivial matters of the palace, such as food and daily life. This time, knowing that it would not be easy to escape, Yingshu had of course made preparations in advance. She brought a lot of incense and poison, which were of no use in the Weiyang Palace, but could they be used now?

"If we get the information from Jiang Gaofan and confirm that he has made all the arrangements, we should be able to use poison to kill some of the enemy soldiers on the day we escape."

The reason why not all of it is because it is impossible for Mrs. Wei to directly poison the food.

As an inner lady of the imperial court, Madam Wei certainly could not cook meals for the palace guards herself. It would be more natural for her to leave it to the existing palace maids in the palace. However, these people would not obey Madam Wei's order to poison the food. Besides, the only confidants around Madam Wei were Hong Tao and Bai Li. They might be able to sneak into the kitchen, but there was no way they could avoid the crowds and put the poison that was enough to kill more than a hundred people into the pot.

"The poisoning plan won't work." Yingshu also quickly realized this.

"The palace guards are numerous, and unlike our envoy guards, they don't cook three meals separately. Even if we can put poison into the pot without anyone noticing, we have no way of controlling how the poisoned food will be distributed. Of course, we can first inform our own people not to eat the poisoned food, but there is no guarantee that the palace guards of the Northern Han Dynasty will eat the poisoned food together. For example, the people on duty and those off duty have different eating times. If only some of them are poisoned, the plan will be exposed immediately."

The safety of the Lord of Shenyuan Palace cannot be compromised. The risk of poisoning is too great and cannot be adopted.

Yingshu stared at the palace garden below. She no longer felt the pressure of the aura that had made her feel uncomfortable. Her mind was working fast, so she naturally didn't pay attention to the expressions of the people around her.

Sikong Yuehu put one hand behind his waist and the other hand on the railing, with his face slightly tilted. When he lowered his eyes, he saw a woman's equally drooping but incomparably soft face, like a half moon floating out from between dark clouds. That half moon became a treasure mirror for some fairy who was passing by. The fairy came closer, and the treasure mirror transformed into eyebrows, eyes, and facial features, like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, and he no longer seemed to be in this world of mortal world.

The more she focused on mundane matters, the more he could have a moment of distraction.

The dangerous building and the valley are hundreds of feet high, and it is difficult to reach the sky. On the top of the Zhongnan Tower, this moment of forgetfulness of the world makes him even more grateful to be born in this world of fireworks. The smile that blooms from the bottom of his heart brightens his eyes that sometimes even seem lonely. This autumn feeling between heaven and earth seems to be only connected with the vibrant summer, and will never be related to the winter when everything withers.

But he was free only for a moment.

In a moment, he had heard her calm, stranger-like words.

"We will have to stay here for at least 30 days. Madam Wei can appoint Hong Tao and Bai Li to be responsible for purchasing the necessary fresh ingredients. This way, we will not lose contact with the Flying Eagle Division. We should have a chance to use the opportunity to smuggle crossbows into the palace!"

"Forget about the crossbows. A few bows and arrows won't do much good."

Seeing that the woman's brows were frowning again, Sikong Yuehu did not give any more reminders.

"Poisoning won't work, and neither will fighting head-on. We can only take advantage of the situation. Although Dongping Gate is the closest gate to the ferry, we don't necessarily have to break out from Dongping Gate. For example, if we go out from Xiping Gate, although we can't use a boat to cross the water, we can use a bamboo raft. Since it's a sneak crossing, of course we have to choose the middle of the night. We just need to think of a way to control Yang Neichen and other palace people without alerting the palace guards. It's best to sneak across the Ba River from Xiping Gate... No, this is not foolproof. What if the palace guards are alerted and chased? They have bows and crossbows, and we are completely unprotected on the bamboo raft, and we can't ensure that everyone can cross the Ba River safely."

Yingshu lacked practical experience and was at a loss as to what to do.

"There is no foolproof strategy." Sikong Yuehu finally lent a helping hand: "It's great that you can think of breaking out from Xiping Gate. Think about capturing the leader first."

Capture the king first before capturing the thief?

Ying Shu was very skeptical about this direction: "If it was Jiang Cang who led the team, taking him hostage might have some effect, but now the palace guards of Northern Han only obey the orders of the commander. Even if the commander is captured, will it be enough to force them to surrender?"

Ying Shu's eyes suddenly lit up: "I understand, the hostages are not important, kill the commander first, without someone to give orders, and the incident happened suddenly, the enemy was caught off guard, and they are like a pile of loose sand!"

Sikong Yuehu nodded and said, "In fact, the military organization of each country is similar. Five people form a squad and march with the squad leader. Ten squads form a team and obey the commander's orders. The palace now has two teams of palace guards, which means there are two commanders. One commander is responsible for archers and the other commander is responsible for infantry. It is unrealistic to get rid of both commanders at the same time. We can get rid of the infantry commander first."

"Why is it the infantry commander?" Yingshu was puzzled.

The biggest threat should be the archers, so why not eliminate the archer leader first?

"Patrol, the archers are the most important." Sikong Yuehu said: "Therefore, the archer commander is generally more vigilant, and it is very difficult to kill him by false pretenses. Moreover, even if the archer commander is killed by false pretenses, there are still four sergeants. The archers will not completely lose their initiative just because they don't have the commander's orders.

The patrols during the day will not be very strict, but the uprising should be carried out at night. At night, at least 30 archers will be on duty, and the commander will not leave the sentry post without permission. If a bamboo raft is used, the prince cannot swim, and it is easy to be chased and attacked by arrows, which is too risky. However, if we do not evacuate from Xiping Gate, we can create a riot at Xiping Gate. Once the riot starts, the infantry will go to check it out first. But at this time, the infantry commander is already dead. What will the archer commander think? "

Yingshu tried to put herself in the situation, but was powerless: "If I were the leader of the archers, I wouldn't even know if there were spies among the palace guards."

"Most of them will think as Deputy Envoy Zuo does."

Sikong Yuehu pointed at Xiping Gate and said, "After setting fire to the gate tower of Xiping Gate, everyone knew that there would be turmoil in the palace. However, the archer commander must first think that it was a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so he would not withdraw from his post, and would notify the infantry commander to check. However, when he learned that the infantry commander had died inexplicably, he thought that the reason they were transferred to the palace was mainly because Queen Mother Yao was making trouble in Chang'an and was determined to kill the Palace Master and the Left Deputy Envoy. The infantry commander died in a strange way, and it was difficult for the archer commander to determine whether someone in the infantry palace guards was bribed by Queen Mother Yao to deliberately create turmoil. He would definitely personally confirm whether the Palace Master was safe."

Ying Shu frowned: "But if we use this opportunity to lure and kill the archer commander, Baohua Palace will inevitably be besieged."

"But what if Baohua Palace has been 'bloodbathed'? Deputy Envoy Zuo, you should also think that Yang Neichen is actually very confident that he can win the fight, right?"

Looking down from a high place, Yingshu looked at the lake behind Baohua Palace and between it and another palace garden, and the outline of the "evil plan" had already emerged in her mind.

This time, her idea was recognized by Sikong Yuehu.

"I will leave the palace first, so the left deputy envoy must take the lead in what happens next." Sikong Yuehu said.

"You want to leave first?"

"Yes, because I will not go out of Wuguan with you. I want to sneak to Hanzhong."

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from somewhere in the sky, golden waves rose and fell between heaven and earth, and horns rose in all directions. Yingshu stood in the Zhongnan Tower, but she felt as if she was in the Tai Chi Hall. At that time, she thought she was not facing the life-and-death battle alone, but when she died, the person who gave her the confidence to win did not come back.

Just like now, he told her - I have to leave first, you have to rely on yourself.

Yingshu smiled.

"I hope for a great victory in Hanzhong."

Her eyes looked into his for a moment, which should be the most serious moment since her rebirth, and then she looked away. The sky seemed even more desolate, so empty that not even a trace of cloud or mist remained. If there really was a god who dominated the heaven and earth living in the ninth heaven, then this god should have opened his heart to everyone in the world at this moment. It was empty and desolate, without a trace of emotion. This was the coldest and hardest heart, but also the most real.

Yingshu had done her duty and arranged a way for Sikong Yuehu to escape first.

Not many people noticed that the delegation was missing a member. Later, Yingshu, Dianjun and Liang Hui climbed up the Zhongnan Tower again and told them about her perfect plan. It was after the Mid-Autumn Festival. There was no bright moon to appreciate on this Mid-Autumn Festival. It was raining that day. Before falling asleep, she could hear the sound of the waves of the Bashui River on the high bed in Baohua Palace. It was different from the sound of rain, heavier, but very much like the lingering sound of rain. After the rain, the weather gradually became colder day by day.

"Ah Shu, Xin Sujun should have arrived in Hanzhong, right?"

On the day when he put on the cloak, the prince asked.

"It should have arrived." The matter in Hanzhong had nothing to do with Yingshu anymore. It was not a battlefield where she had to go. Naturally, she had not thought that Sikong Yuehu would bring a letter. The secret report she had just read was written by Nanci and delivered via the Flying Eagle Tribe. It must have been sent by order of His Majesty A Quan himself.

Uncle Qiao led his troops to Xiangyang, and Nanci went with them. They had already met with Ran Zhugu, so it was impossible to attack Wancheng. However, if Wancheng sent troops, Uncle Qiao would attack and stop them, and would not allow Northern Zhao to divide its troops from Wancheng, so that they could reach Wuguan without any hindrance. In this way, Jiang Tai could "escape" without any worries, and as soon as he left...

Something is about to happen in Wuguan.

Jiang Mo is still a hostage. After Ran Zhugu captures Chang'an and forces Jiang Tai to retreat, he will definitely abide by the agreement and send back the envoy of Dongyu in exchange for Jiang Mo's return to take charge of the situation. Yingshu is confident that she can get rid of the 100 palace guards and dozens of palace servants in the Lantian Palace, but she has not told anyone. There is no certainty of victory, and the probability of everyone escaping is less than one percent.

Someone will be buried in Lantian and their body will sink into the Bashui River. She can only try her best to protect the Lord of Shenyuan Palace. Except for the Lord, the danger of death may befall anyone.

So she went to Liang Hui privately and said, "No matter what happens, you must ensure that you stay with the Lord and escort him safely into Xiangyang City and back to Jiankang Palace."

She still wrote back to Nanci seriously, reporting only good news and not bad news.

One night, Yingshu had a dream. She returned safely to Jiankang, an environment she was very familiar with. However, she saw that her family was in mourning. Her mother and great-grandmother hugged each other and cried bitterly. She stood there at a loss, and no one saw her. After waking up, she felt that she must have dreamed of her previous life. She thought that after her soul entered into extinction, the remaining sorrow involved rebirth.

I won't die.

Yingshu used this word to remove the haze cast by the nightmare in her mind. I will never let my mother die before her. I have deceived Nanci, so I must not go back on my word. I said that I would go back to Jiankang and go with him. Therefore, Wang Yingshu, you must not die in Lantian. Don't forget that the people who killed Changle are still alive and well!

"No news from Xinsu-kun yet?"

One day, Dianjun asked again.

Yingshu shook her head.

She seemed to see a look of doubt in Dianjun's eyes. She was unsure, but she was on guard. Perhaps she shouldn't be so sensitive, but if Dianjun had the slightest distrust of her because of their romantic feelings, it could result in a complete loss, and they could not afford such consequences.

"My Lord, I guessed it. The person you like is Xinsu Jun." Yingshu chose to be frank.

The prince's eyes were in panic and he dodged subconsciously, but he did not deny it.

Yingshu breathed a sigh of relief. She was just about to tell Dianjun that the emperor had made his decision, but Dianjun didn't give her a chance.

"I gave up."

After saying this, Dian Jun was also relieved: "A Shu, you have to promise me that this is a secret between you and me, only heaven and earth know it, you know it, and I know it, don't tell anyone. I gave up, not because I was inferior, but because I figured out one thing during this period of time, that love is the most beautiful feeling in the world, and because it is too beautiful, it is hard to find.

I didn't know what emotions were before. My life seemed to have a set path. I had to work hard to revitalize my family, so I wanted to become the emperor's wife. I didn't understand why I was not qualified, but I seemed to know why I was despised. During that time, I was confused and in pain.

At that time, I was inferior, but I didn't want to face my inferiority. After making friends with you, I understood many truths that I never dared to think about in the past. But in fact, I still have the snail shell on my back. I am used to it. Whenever I feel timid, I will hide in the snail shell.

I admire my love for you, and I think the only way to express my admiration for him is to accompany him all the time, try my best to be close to him, and one day I will muster up the courage to tell him, "Even if the mountains are cut off and the sky and the earth are united, I will never break up with you."

I thought a person's sincerity was the most precious, but it's not true. Just like me, I regarded Deputy Commander Liang's sincerity as a burden. I couldn't force Xin Sujun to cherish my sincerity. When I figured this out, I felt relieved, but I still cared about him and worried about his safety. I haven't really let him go. Therefore, I made Ah Shu embarrassed again. It's better for me not to know than to know many confidential matters..."

Yingshu extended her hand. Shaking hands is actually the most intimate communication between people.

"I really don't know any news about Xinsu-kun, but I think no news is good news."

Before the great change, the grudge between Dianjun and Yingshu was finally resolved. Or perhaps it cannot be called a grudge, but Ziling had left Jiankang Palace and couldn't fall asleep because of the jokes made by the unscrupulous Sishui.

Si Shui said: "If the Fifth Prince was not childhood sweethearts with the Left Deputy Envoy... No, let me put it this way, if the Left Deputy Envoy was not the granddaughter of Lord Linyi, but was just a simple female official like us, I would definitely be a matchmaker for the Left Deputy Envoy and bring him together with that envoy guard... And that envoy guard, of course, is the one who beheaded two of Queen Mother Yao's personal guards, yes, yes, that's the cold guard, he is cold to everyone except the Left Deputy Envoy!"

Si Shui only discussed this with Xiang Yun, and Ling Shang Gong was not worried that rumors would arise and damage the reputation of the Left Deputy Envoy.

But, eh! How could Sishui that girl know that the person they called "Cold Guard" was actually Xinsu Jun!!!

Si Shui didn't even notice that Dian Jun also had a good impression of Xin Su Jun. In short... I hope that the nobles will not be obsessed with personal affairs, and must not cause the kind of love-hate tragedy that the public likes to see.
