Changqing Ci

Chapter 73 Envoys

The knife in Yun Shen's hand did not have time to put it down. Hearing this, he put the blade on one of them and blew gently on the blade, "Tell me what's going on in the frontier. Huang Fulin is dead. If you don't obey me, you will be killed." Go with him, he is probably very lonely."

The man shook his body, grabbed Yun Shen's clothes, and hurriedly kowtowed: "My lord, please forgive me, I don't know... I just listened to General Huangfu's order, and the soldiers in the barracks were all suffering from wind and cold, but no matter how they were treated, they couldn't be cured." Okay... Someone advised the general to report to the court, but he was afraid of being held accountable by the court, so he concealed it... But who knew that today's frontier suddenly attacked... We couldn't resist... so... just... ran away... Your Excellency Ah, we're just doing what we're told."

There was no one in the hall, except for the heavy panting of the man whose neck was stabbed by the knife and the sound of sweat dripping to the ground. Yuan Xun was so shocked that he could not speak, and his mind was full of how to defend with more than [-] soldiers in Yizhou. That gate.

Earlier, she even thought about losing the border city, but if it was lost, the border city would retain at least half of its strength, but now that the entire army has been wiped out, there is not a single soldier left for her. How can she get the troops to defend the city now...

There was confusion in her eyes, she paused for a long time, then rushed out and opened the door, shouting: "Quickly, order someone to send an urgent report back to the Imperial Capital, and ask His Majesty for support."

Immediately someone responded, and she hurried back to the hall, looked at Wei Lingci and the two of them, her face was solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid you two can't leave, Miss Wei stays and guards the city, as for Changqing, I think you should go to the border town."

"No," Wei Lingci blocked Yuan's line of sight, and stood in front of Xun Changqing, with a cold expression, proud of the ice and snow, "Yuan, I can stay and defend the city, but Changqing must return to the capital, here she stays." No."

Yuan Yu excitedly said: "Why not, now she is the only one who can delay the time, just a few days is enough, otherwise hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the frontier will go south, how will Jizhou defend, Wei Lingci, I know you are very smart, but you have no soldiers in your hands , you are not a fairy."

"Since the frontier has broken the agreement, there will be no empty feelings. Personal feelings are now above the family and the country. Yuan Yu, don't think too much about people's hearts." Wei Lingci sneered, looking at the long dragon burning outside the lobby His eyes were ruthless and fierce, and his voice was quiet but colder, "Yuan Yu, you should know about Changqing's situation in the imperial capital. If you go to the border town and meet someone you shouldn't see, you are letting her fly away." Moths to the flame."

"Try it and you will know that no one in Jizhou knows her identity, and she will not be introduced to the imperial capital; if the two armies are at war, if they don't kill her, Ana Yanran will not do anything to her..."

"Yuan 谢..." Wei Lingci stopped abruptly, and turned to look at the pale-faced person. She dare not mention the name of Ana Yanran, for fear that she will be sad if she hears about it. After all, the two are together After so many years of friendship, now each of them is working independently, it is more than reasonable for Xun Changqing to go to the frontier as an envoy of Daqi to explore the reality.

Xun Changqing's eyes were empty and lifeless, he grabbed Wei Lingci's sleeve, at a loss, and murmured: "You mean that the coach of Frontier is my concubine mother?"

Wei Lingci grabbed her flustered hand, felt guilty, and didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at her. Yuan Yu was anxious and had nothing to do at the moment, so he stared at her and didn't let go, "Changqing, what's the situation in the border town?" , no one knows, you have traveled as an envoy of Jizhou, first to delay time, and second to find out the truth."

"Yuan Yu," Xun Changqing's voice was cold, "If the coach opposite is really the concubine mother, I'll go all the way, anyway, I also want to see her." She wanted to ask the concubine mother why she left without saying goodbye, why she was sent Abandoning it, why is she so heartless, the wind and rain are drifting in the imperial capital.

She complied, and Yuan Xun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered someone to arrange a room for them in the government office, and he non-stop recruited officials in charge of Jizhou to discuss how to resist for a while.

Only Wei Ling remained silent and said nothing, only looked at Xun Changqing, and after entering the room, said in a low voice, "I'll go with you." She was different from Yuan Yan, she not only wanted to defend Jizhou, but also I want to guard the person in front of me.

Xun Changqing shook his head, his eyes were clear, the corners of his lips were slightly curved, pretending to smile, "No, the border town is too dangerous, I can go alone, she...should not embarrass me,"

Wei Lingci glanced at her, "You have an ugly smile, you know that?"

"Then give me a laugh." Saying that, Xun Changqing jumped at her, and the two of them turned over on the bed a few times. Wei Lingci hugged her, put his forehead on her hair, and stroked her. Xu Yu said in a low voice: "She is not your biological mother, your biological mother has passed away long ago."

"So what, she treated me well when I was young, that's enough, Xun Yi is my biological father, you can abandon me and don't care, I don't mind if I have a blood relationship with her, two lives and thirteen years, I haven't known each other Before you, she was the only one in my life... I secretly thought that it would be good for her to leave the Imperial Capital, but I don't want to be on my own."

After waking up, she was full of hostility towards everyone in the world, but seeing what the concubine mother did for her, she felt that the heavens still had pity on her, at least she still had someone she could trust, she was from the frontier, and she could Da Qi learned etiquette so well, everyone in the palace admired her, and the two side concubines dared not do anything to her.

"When I woke up, I heard the conversation of the two side concubines, saying that she was not pregnant... They thought I was young and ignorant, but they didn't know that I had already been reborn... I guessed the reason, but she didn't mind , treat me as my own, that's enough, I don't bother to care about who my biological mother is, or she may have passed away long ago, I am not ruthless and miss the person who gave birth to me, but there has never been one in my life, how can I think about it , to read..."

After the lights were turned on in the room, only one was left on the table in front of the couch. Under the warm yellow light, Wei Lingci brushed the messy hair from her cheeks and stared at the tears that were about to fall in her eyes. , My heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and it suddenly ached.

Wei Lingci kissed her slender and wet eyelashes, "Changqing, I will accompany you if you want to go, and I will ask Yuan Yu to arrange someone to meet her, and she will not harm you, but between the two countries, you Don't think about those old things, and go back to the Imperial Capital immediately after you come back."

"I don't want you to go, it's too dangerous." Xun Changqing closed his eyes, put away his messy thoughts, put his hands around her waist habitually, and nestled in her arms obediently, There was still some cool wind blowing late at night, it was unavoidably a little cold, but Wei Lingci blocked the wind from the outside, and the temperature right now was just right.

The word "dangerous" got into Wei Lingci's eardrums and climbed into her heart. She raised her hand and pinched Xun Changqing's waist in pajamas, and heard a long gasp before saying: "I didn't hear what you said just now. Say it again."

She suddenly pressed him down, and the hand on Xun Changqing's waist still did not relax, as long as Xun Changqing said something that shouldn't be said, she could repeat the same trick.

Xun Changqing's two hands were actually encircled by one of hers, unable to use his strength, he struggled a bit, but still insisted: "I can go by myself, I will be careful, you are not allowed to follow."

"Yeah, you're old enough to make up your own mind, I won't force you anymore." Wei Lingci sneered.Under the bright light, she has a beautiful face, black hair and porcelain skin, bright eyes, blushing and small earlobes, with a beautiful woman at her side, which makes people feel excited, but if there is no hand at the waist, I am afraid that Xun Changqing will be relaxed and happy.

Xun Changqing looked at her bright eyes, and felt timid in her heart. Maybe Wei Lingci was a spotless person in her heart. Now that they are lying on each other's necks, it is so beautiful, but she seems to have gotten into trouble again. Ling Ci pinched her waist hard, met her flickering eyes, and shouted: "Master, it hurts so much...you are unreasonable..."

Wei Lingci smiled faintly, and seeing her aggrieved appearance, he added some strength to his hands, and said casually: "Yes, there is no need to reason."

"It hurts...Wei Lingci, lighten up, it will become more and more violent...it hurts," Xun Changqing slightly dodged to the side, but his eyes were tightly locked on her eyes, the eyes were gloomy, and he bit his lip: " It's so dangerous, think about it again, I don't want you to have something to do, I will definitely come back safely after I go."

Wei Lingci squinted his eyes, and when he looked at the person below him, his eyes were sharp, his expression remained unchanged, and there was an unexplained smile on his lips, and there was a little threat in his words: "Xun Changqing, you should think about it." It's you, if you go back to the Imperial Capital tomorrow, Yuan Yu won't tie you to the border town."

"I promised Yuan Yu, and besides, I can't disregard Jizhou. I still feel... it hurts..." Xun Changqing frowned, his eyes trembled, and he didn't dare to speak any more. It seems that meat can only be slaughtered.

Wei Lingci repeated stubbornly and firmly: "Go on, I don't force you as a teacher. I haven't touched you since the moment you entered my door. You can try today."

Xun Changqing gritted his teeth, Tao Hua's eyes were full of helplessness and the desire to eat the person in front of him, "You...are an unreasonable person, you have done so much for me, and if you lost your life for nothing, you will regret it, Wei Ling Ci!"

Something seemed to flash across my heart, and it disappeared in a flash, like a meteor across the sky, leaving only a faint trace. Wei Lingci's eyes froze, "That's my business."

"Don't pinch me all the time. Why are you so strong? If you have something to talk about, it hurts..." Xun Changqing yelled a few times, frowned, took a deep breath, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead , "If you want to go... hiss... just go."

Wei Lingci finally moved his hand away, patted her slightly swollen face, felt the touch of soft skin from his hand, and smiled softly: "Good boy!"

Xun Changqing snorted twice, moved to the inner side of the bed, hugged the blanket, rubbed the place where he was pinched, and said to himself: "I regret it..."

The words "I regret it" came in a very low voice, and the two petrified people outside the door didn't hear it, but the tea in Li Xiang's hand was already unstable, and when he was about to let go, Yun Shen caught her and dragged her out. , the two came to deliver tea, but they heard a good show. They didn't expect the majestic little princess outside to be so 'obedient'.

Xun Changqing hugged the quilt and stayed away from the outsiders. Looking at her calm and breezy look, he leaned forward unwillingly and tried to negotiate: "It is agreed that you will listen to me, and you will stay here."

"It's time for you to go to bed." Wei Lingci turned over and rescued the shapeless blanket she was kneading in her hands, and then spread it out to cover her body. After extinguishing the candle, he lay back down again, with a calm expression, as if he had just met with her Xun Changqing was not the one making trouble.

Xun Changqing's face darkened, knowing that even if she disagreed, Wei Lingci would go, stubborn and arrogant, she turned over and faced her, after thinking about it, she calmed down and said, "You just pinched the pain I'm dying, and it still hurts..."

"Then what are you going to do, let you bite back?"

"I don't want to bite you, bite you, my teeth hurt."

There was silence in the darkness, and suddenly there was a heavy sigh. Wei Lingci turned over, reached out and hugged her, and pressed her whole body into his arms, mixed with a helpless, gentle and comforting voice: "So , you are satisfied."

Xun Changqing smelled her unique fragrance, and said with disgust: "Wei Lingci, you are the most stupid person I have ever met."

Wei Lingci pursed the corners of his lips, and said unhurriedly: "You are the most stupid person I have ever met, knowing that there is danger and insisting on going, Ana Yanran will strip you alive."

Xun Changqing tapped her chest with his fingertips, touching the cold and tender skin, circling in circles, and said, "If I peel it off, I will peel you off too. The two are one, and you can't escape."

Wei Lingci didn't bother to talk to her, so he just closed his eyes. Fortunately, the person in his arms settled down wisely. After an unknown amount of time, a vague voice appeared in her ear, and she said, "Wei Lingci, you and I, in this life, life and death Together."

The person in the arms is really stupid, she is more than ten years older than her, how can she live and die together.

........................................................................

The city gates of Jizhou were blocked, and people were not allowed to enter or exit. Many people who escaped from the border towns were refused outside the city gates.

The people had no choice but to stay outside the city, but they still didn't want to leave. Yuan Yan and the others stood on the tower and watched for a few days. They saw that there were all the people below, and there was no suspicious person. After thinking twice, they opened the city. The people rushed in, and the heavy city gate was closed again after a while.

The city of Jizhou has a large area, and tents and pots and stoves were set up in remote places to provide two meals of rice porridge a day.

Yuan Yu's actions are benevolent and righteous, but in the end, spies will sneak in, and they will repeat the same mistakes, and they will be drugged like a military camp in a border town.Xun Changqing thought of a compromise, ordering people to guard these people and not allow them to enter, or send them out of Jizhou directly, so as not to contaminate any grass or thing in Jizhou city.

The post sent by Yuan Yu's order received a quick response, and the opposing coach was indeed Ana Yanran, who agreed with her opinion.

There are still refugees outside the city of Jizhou. After opening the city gate again, the refugees rushed in like wolves and tigers, but after seeing the swords in the hands of the soldiers, they slowed down. There is not much food in Jizhou. Fortunately, a batch was sent earlier The people left.

Xun Changqing went against these refugees, but some refugees still followed them and went to the border town like them to look for their lost family members.

They only walked a few tens of miles before they saw frontier soldiers camped out, countless tents, smoke rising from the ground, and soldiers patrolling back and forth outside. It seemed that the main force was here.

Xun Changqing seemed to smell the smell of blood again, she drove her horse forward, stopped at the gate of the wooden fence, handed in her post, and said in a clear voice: "Tell you princess, just say that the envoys of Daqi and Jizhou are here. "

The gatekeepers cheered up when they heard Daqi's words, but they were slightly relieved when they saw that there was no one behind her. Post, go in and report.

Wei Lingci glanced at the surroundings casually, and found that the soldiers were practicing in an orderly manner, without a trace of panic and distraction, and his heart sank. Jizhou lasted to the end with [-] soldiers and horses. It would take half a month for reinforcements to come here. The siege of the city is likely to be more dangerous than good, too many soldiers and horses have been lost in the border towns, Jizhou is already too busy to take care of itself, and it is common sense for Yuan Yu to go crazy.

Xun Changqing took half a step back, stood beside her, and said in a low voice, "The frontier is well prepared, I'm afraid Jizhou... will be difficult."

Wei Lingci remained silent, Yuan Yu thought too simply, when Ana Yanran appeared in the frontier, whether she held Daqi's defense map or not was the first thing to do, if it was really in her hands, then she would tell Daqi The deployment in various places is clear, coupled with the strong soldiers in hand, it is really unstoppable.

After a cup of tea, the soldier who ran in ran back and asked the two of them to go in, just wanting to buckle the long sword in Wei Lingci's hand.

The Qingfeng sword in Wei Lingci's hand is a fine blade, which has been passed down to her for several generations, so how could it be easily handed over to the enemy army? She only glanced coldly, scaring off the soldiers who approached, but was also blocked outside the door.

After a few people made a noise, several people in the army rushed out and shouted sharply: "Back off!"

The gatekeepers had no choice but to bow their heads and back out. If they shouted a few times late, Wei Lingci might not be able to bear it. Xun Changqing poked his head and looked at the female general in black robe and silver armor who came out from behind the generals. With a click, the word "mother and concubine" that was about to come out was swallowed back into his mouth, and he only said: "Princess, the two armies are at war. The barracks will still be afraid that a long sword will fail."

Ana Yanran inquired about the girl in front of her without a trace, doubts crept into her heart, she never cared about her sarcasm, her eyes fell on her somewhat familiar cheeks, and she asked in puzzlement, "Why did you two come here?"
