Changqing Ci

Anaf is as cold-blooded and ruthless as her king's father. Today, the vanguard died in battle, but she didn't show any sympathy. When the night wind blew outside the tent, Anayan looked at Baiyan's cold body, raised her sleeves, and slapped her. Putting it on Anaf's face, she smiled softly: "Whatever I do in this palace is the chief general of these 20 horses. You don't need to beak it. If you are not convinced, you can go back to the capital."

The sudden slap stunned Anaf, and she clenched her fists, "Auntie, you seem to have forgotten that you are the lord and general, but the lord of Daqi is my father, not you, so don't mess around and collude with Daqi." But capital punishment."

The hatred in her eyes did not hide from Ana Yanran, her eyes swayed slightly, Bai Yan's death suddenly made her see something clearly, a heart-wrenching pain surged in her heart, and it penetrated deep into her heart again, she squeezed Anaf touched Anaf's chin, "How about I give this seat to you, you are so powerful, and you are also in the same class as Wei Ling Ci, you should be very familiar with her martial arts routines, if you win her on the battlefield, you can attack her." It's time to go to Daqi, I will send Baiyan's body back to the capital tomorrow, and I will give you this place."

The tone was so clear that Anaf was horrified, but when she heard that she was going back to the capital, she was very excited. She turned around and walked out of the unlucky tent, walked a little further, and immediately ordered her own soldiers, "Go back to the capital first. , Tell the lord that Ana Yanran wants to turn against her, let the lord be more careful with her."

She sneered, her eyes were like blades, Da Qi had already broken through several cities, Ana Yanran had already opened this door, it was useless to keep it, why not let her leave, imprison the capital, and see how she can capture the capital of Da Qi.

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

Compared with the morale of the frontier, the soldiers in Xiangzhou City of Daqi were fighting like a raging fire, and it was rare for them to breathe a sigh of relief. They admired the new marshal so much that they didn't dare to underestimate women.

Xun Yisu didn't like the noisy atmosphere in the army, so he climbed up the city wall to look for Wei Lingci. The moonlight was beautiful, as beautiful as Wei Lingci in white clothes. No matter where such a person goes, he can't help but make people look sideways.

Wei Lingci didn't like the atmosphere in the barracks either, but Yuan Yu liked it and got into trouble with them every day. Fortunately, Yuan Yu blocked those soldiers for her today, otherwise she would be dragged into the tent and unable to come out.

She leaned against the city wall, tapped the wall with her fingertips, her eyes brightened, "You can go back to Daqi, Changqing said that he will return your status as Princess Daqi."

"It doesn't matter whether I go back or not. I have never been greedy for that identity. Perhaps in the heart of the concubine mother, I would rather die now."

Just ask which mother can accept that her daughter likes a woman and stay with her for life.

Wei Lingci laughed and said: "It's because you are timid. As long as you live, it is more important to your mother and concubine than anything else. It's up to you. Anyway, Changqing's words will never change."

Xun Yisu's thinking is different from Wei Lingci's. She has no experience of two lives, can't see through life and death, and succumbs to the world's vision. She raised her eyes and said, "I will go back after you and Your Majesty get married."

With the empress as a shield, not many people will pay attention to the matter of Xun Yisu and Yuan Yan.

Wei Lingci saw her thoughts, smiled lightly, and did not speak again. I don't know when the emperor and empress will get married, let alone whether Xun Changqing can keep himself in the imperial capital and resist the temptation.

Xun Yisu is different from the ecstatic Yuan Xun. Everyone thinks it's a pity that Wei Lingci didn't kill Ana Yanran, but she knows that Wei Lingci never trades at a loss, and she can support Xun Changqing to ascend to the throne , we can see that she is indeed a counselor.

Only when the border is stable, the little emperor of Da Qi can rest easy, and there are not many generals of Da Qi who can beat Gu Liang, Xun Yi is one of them, but he has power in his hands and will not go out to war, and Wei Ling Ci is different, she thinks To make Emperor Xun Changqing more stable, the only way to hold the military power, and the 20 soldiers in the southwest are in the hands of Xun Yi, then she must have 20 soldiers to contend with.

Recovering the frontier, far more than 20 soldiers and horses, seems to be a dark road, but Wei Lingci has the ability to confidently walk into a sunny road.

It's just that she didn't understand why Wei Lingci let Ana Yanran go. At this time, no one was there, so it was a good time to ask her.

In autumn, the wind on the city wall is even more bleak. Wei Lingci is wearing a summer tulle, and after blinking her dark and beautiful eyelashes, there is a strange glow of confidence, "Actually, that sword killed her, and at most it hurt her severely." That's all, the frontier lord is old, and the princes under him are jumping up and down, and the most annoying thing about this lord is suspicion, otherwise he wouldn't have given the military power to Ana Yanran and not to his own son. Today not only you see When it came time, I deliberately didn't kill her. I believe many people in the frontier army on the opposite side saw it. In addition, Ana Yanran was the mother of His Majesty Daqi, and it is also possible that I have been ordered by His Majesty to spare her. She can return to Daqi."

Xun Yisu was startled when he heard such concise and clear words, and retorted: "If no one is fooled by the other side, then your success will fall short?"

"There is no rush for this matter. The future will last forever. There are plenty of opportunities. Today is just planting a seed." Wei Ling closed his eyes, smiling like a cloud under the moonlight. If Xun Changqing was here, he might hug her and kiss her a mouthful.

Xun Yisu looked at Xu for a while, his expression uncertain, and after Wei Ling's words were silent for a long time, he said: "I heard some news in the frontier, that Ana Yanran was forced to marry Daqi, I guess she has a loving person in her heart, As for who it is, I guess it's probably dead, she attacked Da Qi, as if she wanted to get revenge on Da Qi and force her to marry him."

"It's a little bit reluctant to take revenge on Daqi. The person who should take revenge and forced her to get married was the one who made the marriage 15 years ago... Then it should be her own brother, the current king. She is a little paranoid." Wei Lingci was also puzzled, In her previous life, she paid too little attention to these things. She didn't even know who the frontier coach was. Now she can only take one step at a time.

In the next few days, the opposite side became much quieter, and no one came to yell or scold. In the quiet days, Wei Lingci took Yuan Yan and the others to observe the terrain of Xiangzhou, and even went to spy outside the barracks opposite.

The frontier army lost once, but they are still training in an orderly manner. I'm afraid they will make a comeback in the future.

Yun Shen and the others were a little impatient, thinking that if they won, they should take advantage of their momentum to fight again, so as not to lose this opportunity with high morale.

But Wei Lingci did not move, and even read the military book when no one was around, which was incredible.

On the fifth day, the spies came to report that Ana Yanran left the barracks and headed north with a coffin.

Wei Lingci slowly put down the book of war, glanced at the map, looked at the confused people, clicked on Xiangzhou on the map, and said: "She must send Baiyan's body back to the capital, and someone should call for battle tomorrow. Yun Shen, go try it first, without Ana Yanran, you should not be afraid anymore."

Yun Shen, who was named, was stunned, but before he could react, Yuan Yu in front of him spoke first, "I will go tomorrow, there is someone on the opposite side using Ling Yunzong's sword technique, Yun Shen will definitely not be able to beat it, so I will go."

Huiling Yunzong's swordsmanship must be complete, Wei Lingci thought for a while, and insisted: "Yunshen, you should go first, if you lose anyway, then lose more beautifully. If necessary, Yuan Xun Go to meet you, but Yuan Yu, you can't win, you can only lose, and you have to lose without leaving a trace."

"What?" Yuan Yu's heart trembled. The person opposite the Lingyun swordsmanship was just a child. Yun Shen didn't know that if he lost the Lingyun swordsmanship, he would lose. Inferior, now it is too shameful to lose to a child, "I can't lose, I can't do this job."

Wei Lingci raised his eyes and looked at her, with a faint smile on his lips, he said seriously: "Yuan Yu, if you win tomorrow, I will send someone to send Xun Yisu back to the Imperial Capital in the afternoon. How decent is it for Princess Qi to stay in the barracks?"

The snake hit seven inches, laughing until Yun Shen and Shang Hong couldn't straighten their waists, Xun Yisu is Yuan Yu's spiritual food right now, sending her away is more uncomfortable than killing her.

Yuan Yu was so angry that his face turned red, and he had nothing to say. He held his long gun for a long time, and then said: "I will try, if not, I will admit defeat, who won't." Compared with A Su, A Su is still more important."

On the second day, the frontier army really came to attack the city. After Yun Shen went out, he was knocked off his horse with only a few moves. Combining equestrian skills, she defeated Yuan Yan with dozens of strokes. Fortunately, she ran fast, otherwise she would end up in the same fate as Bai Yan.

This was repeated for several days, and just like the previous days, Da Qi couldn't leave behind closed doors.

But when Anaf saw the people running away, she didn't ask for money to withdraw her troops, she was eager to win, thinking that the morale of Daqi's army was as low as before, and the defense was weak. Instead, she led a strong attack on the city a few days later. Under the city of Zhou, horseshoes splashed dust, and the shadow of swords and swords confused everyone's eyes.

But only Yuan Yu was guarding the city on the top of the city tower. Wei Lingci bypassed the army when the soldiers were assembled, led them into the frontier barracks, burned the food and grass, and burned down the barracks. The Xifan people who stayed behind in the barracks did not know that someone would come The surprise attack, the army was already defeated, and they ran and fled, and when Anaf led the troops back, there was only a pile of ashes left.

But before she could catch her breath, Wei Lingci led people from nowhere and surrounded her remaining troops. When the two armies met, Anaf was in a state of panic, but she heard Wei Lingci sitting on the horse and said with a smile : "Ana Yanran's gift is really good, I will take our Daqi His Majesty to accept it."

Anaf's body shook. This woman is icy and snowy. Her horror is not because of her cold appearance, but because of her deep scheming. She looks like a white lotus, which makes people lose their defenses. But when you relax, she Give a killer move, kill you by surprise.

After she broke through, Yuan Xun was stopped by Wei Lingci when he led people to chase after her, and the cruelty was condensed in his eyes. Guarding Jizhou is the place where we really need to worry, and it is also a good thing for us to let her go back and make trouble."

It is easy to lose Jizhou, but extremely difficult to get it back.

According to Wei Ling's words, they spent nearly half a year outside the city of Jizhou, but the scene in Dijing was different.

In the first year of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, the year name was Ningyan, which means the peace of Daqi, the meaning of Haiqing and Heyan.

In the court hall, the emperor was still fighting against the Pingnan Palace. Gu Liangqian died on the way back to Beijing, and the rest had no choice but to send his body back, posthumously titled him Jingwuhou, and the eldest son Gu Liangyan succeeded knighthood.

On a summer night in the imperial capital, the sky is full of stars, and the moonlight is scattered and thin.

Tang Li became the emperor's right-hand man, and she could freely enter and leave the emperor's palace. For example, when she just came out of the Qianqiu Palace, she met the Empress Dowager who came to visit Xun Changqing. It made people feel terrified, "Empress Dowager, although Your Majesty will get married in two years, but now you can accept the imperial concubine and win over powerful ministers. You understand this, so why not persuade Your Majesty."

These days, the court is always talking about these things. Xun Changqing has been in charge of the government, but he has insufficient power in his hands. Sometimes Xun Yi acts without her consent. The appointment of courtiers below the third rank is his own disposal. Tang Mo reminded him several times The emperor accepted the emperor's husband as soon as possible to solve the immediate predicament.

However, the little emperor insisted on going his own way, and it didn't make sense for Tang Mo's tongue to shine like a lotus flower.

The Queen Mother smiled slightly, signaling her to be calm, and comforted her: "Your Majesty is young, you should take care of your close ministers, and Aijia will try it."

Tang Mo felt uncomfortable, and so did Xun Changqing, who was the emperor.

In the summer, because of these things, her heart was burning with fire, and she ordered people to put a lot of ice cubes around the bedroom. Now that Tang Mo was gone, she walked barefoot to the corner and stood in front of the ice cubes to blow the cold wind.

Dressed in red diamond gauze, she looks taller and taller. She has grown a lot in a year, and her peach blossom eyes have also opened up. She is charming and murderous. If it weren't for the colorful crown, others would not dare to look up. She, I'm afraid that everyone will look at her reluctantly.

The Empress Dowager, who gets along with her every day, sometimes guesses what her mother Liu Ying looks like to give birth to a person as charming as Xun Changqing.

But Xun Changqing does not have the grace and restraint of Jiangnan people, on the contrary, his temperament is more like Wei Lingci's, and his behavior style is also absolutely merciless.In the past year, it seemed that the Pingnan Palace was victorious, but Xun Changqing secretly cultivated new talents, and slowly infiltrated into the center of the court.

Temporary victory does not mean everything, on the contrary, Xun Changqing's patience really admired the Queen Mother.

When she entered the hall, she felt the coolness in the hall, and she couldn't find the figure of the emperor on the seat. She turned around and saw a girl in red with long hair in the corner, hiding there for the coolness, and there were a lot of piles on the imperial case. The memorabilia that I haven't had time to deal with, I turned over a copy of Tang Mo's on it, and it was nothing more than the words at the door.

Hearing the voice, Xun Changqing turned around and paced slowly, and said with a casual smile: "This Tang Mo is even more annoying than the old lady in the house. She will never marry herself in her life, but she wants me to accept the emperor's husband as soon as possible. If it doesn't work, she will get married soon." I'm not in a hurry when the candidate is selected, but she is as anxious as ants on a hot pot."

The queen mother saw that she was furious, and said with a smile: "I don't think your body is hot, but your heart is hot. Has Wei Lingci not written to you recently? Look at how long your face is stretched."

Xun Changqing pulled the Queen Mother to sit aside, and sat cross-legged on the chair, showing a pair of snow-white jade feet, and said aggrievedly: "Wei Lingci, this is my own job, if I know that the person I found forced me to marry Others may vomit to death."

I don't know whether this grievance is for herself or for Wei Ling's words. The queen mother saw that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, and she didn't want to force her. Candidates, wait for Wei Lingci to come back before discarding."

"Will Wei Lingci come back?" Xun Changqing gave her a cold look, then turned around immediately, facing the door, looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, and the lines on the corners of her lips. I don't know whether to cry or laugh, "If she knows I don't know, I might just run away, where can I find someone, I don't know who her kung fu is from, I'm afraid no one can restrain her."

Thinking about it, the queen mother smiled relievedly, looked at her aggrieved appearance, and said with a smile: "You, when Wei Lingci is mentioned, it's messed up. If you don't want to, you don't want to. It's just that after two years, Wei Lingci won't come back again. , How do you block the mouths of Youyo?"

"In two years, the situation has changed drastically. I am the emperor. Who dares to force me to do things I don't want." Xun Chang smiled lightly, as if there was no reason for the deep eyes in his eyes without a trace of emotion, not like her age As it should be.

She jumped down from the chair, rummaged through the imperial case for the good news delivered a few days ago, and handed it to the queen mother, "I know you don't care about the situation in the court, but it was sent by Wei Lingci, Jizhou has recovered In today's court, Xun Yibai asked for orders to go to Jizhou, but was rejected by Tang Mo, I believe that Xun Yibai won the order of King Pingnan and would not simply give up."

The queen mother took a look at the news, and she had heard about it in the past few months, but she didn't expect that Xun Yi would send Xun Yibai to help Wei Lingci, but the battle situation in Jizhou was stable, so there was no need to send another person.What he said was nothing more than fear that Wei Lingci would really regain the frontier and increase his troops greatly.When the time comes to contend with him, it will be difficult to maintain the balance he wants.

Qingyao brought up the snacks brought by the queen mother, golden and crispy, Xun Changqing picked one up, took a bite, and said: "When Tang Mo refuted in the court hall, she still saved some face. Queen Pingnan just sneered and said directly that he wanted to fight for merit, and Xun Yi was so angry that he did it on the spot."

The queen mother said: "Tang Mo is incomprehensible and has ulterior motives, but she is loyal to you, but the Ai family has a faint perception that she seems to be at odds with Xun Yi, so they repeatedly target her."

"My lord has offended a lot of people. The Shao family in the past, Tang Mo now, but Tang Mo only pointed out his faults, and she is also a bright person. I like her temperament. As long as she doesn't bother me about my marriage every day , I would still like to see her."

As an emperor, she was also very helpless. Tang Mo was indeed a pure minister, but she just took too much control, even her marriage.

The queen mother doesn't know about the past, but Xun Changqing will discuss with her when encountering major events. Marriage has always been a taboo for Xun Changqing. She also understands that after all, Wei Lingci has paid too much for her, and she is unwilling to interfere. .

After she put down the teacup, she talked about the purpose of coming here today: "You send the son of Xun Yiran's concubine and attendant to my Ning'an Palace. Let me remind you that Xun Yiran's blood flows in his bones, so take care I know you have thought about stepchildren, but Xun Yiran's son is definitely not suitable. No matter how good other people's heirs are, they are not as good as your own."

Xun Changqing also understood the meaning of the words, she deliberately misinterpreted, leaned half of her body on the table, and giggled with her chin: "The Queen Mother's words are too complete, I am someone else's heir, and I don't treat you wholeheartedly. Just hit me in the face, but it hurts."

The pink face was very close, and there was a rare smile on the corners of the lips that were decorated with rouge. The queen mother was also calm in her heart. After working as the emperor for a long time, this innocent smile became less and less. She also smiled and said: " Your Majesty, there is no other child like you in the world. I will watch over the child for you, but don’t make a decision so quickly. King Ning’s blood can also be considered. But don’t misinterpret Aijia’s words .”

Xun Changqing still had a joking expression, so pure that he couldn't see any flaws, he no longer looked like the gloomy look on the court, but his proud posture was like Wei Ling's Ci, "Changqing understands, but I chose Wei Ling's Ci, I will never have children in this life, and I will make a decision after Wei Lingci comes back, after all, it is still early, and you are lonely by yourself, so having your children with you is a good way to pass the time."

The Queen Mother saw that she couldn't persuade her, and she didn't want to continue talking. After all, if she interferes too much with the younger generation's affairs, it will only make the mother and daughter lose peace. Take some time to think about it."

Xun Changqing also got up to send her out, saying: "Changqing understands, let the Ministry of Rites draw up some names and send them over tomorrow for you to have a look."

The color of ink is rich, the moon is in the sky, Xun Changqing suddenly reached out to touch it, Wei Lingci, I have held on until now, don't let me down, come back sooner.
