Taishi

After a few days, Chi Luoyue ordered someone to bring me a lot of things, and while carefully receiving the things, I asked the guard who delivered the things: "I haven't seen the princess consort recently, are they very busy?"

The guard replied respectfully: "Recently, the princess son-in-law is discussing with the Khan about sending troops to fight against the Huns, and she is indeed very busy and can't get away for the time being."

Is it finally time to start...

This time, Xianbei must be advancing and retreating with Luo Guo. In fact, after careful calculation, Luo Guo has a great chance of winning.The few small tribes around the Xiongnu are actually very weak. Even if they get together, they will not be a big threat to the Luo Kingdom.

It's really not a wise move to act impulsively.

A few days later, Chi Luoyue came to my residence in a hurry to see if she had something important to say to me.

"Princess, what happened?"

"Talented, Luo Guo has come."

I put down the teacup in my hand and felt a strange feeling in my heart, a little happy and a little nervous, with a little bit of anticipation in the tension: "Who is... who?"

Chi Luoyue also put down the teacup in her hand: "It's Your Highness, I'm here to discuss preparations for war with my father."

The tension in my heart has faded a bit, if it wasn't for him: "En."

Seeing my indifferent appearance Chi Luoyue was a little surprised: "Don't you want to see him?"

I laughed at myself: "As a criminal minister of the Luo Kingdom, what reason do I have to meet the prince of the Luo Kingdom? It would only be a bad thing if I met him and faced him."

Chi Luoyue frowned: "How do you say that?"

He sighed in a low voice with some helplessness in his voice: "Because I am a broken sleeve, this reason is enough to explain everything."

Chi Luoyue glanced at me and understood clearly, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea, feeling a little lonely, after a while she raised her head again with a more tentative tone: "But what if the Third Highness insists on seeing you?!"

"not see!"

"Why?!" A person pushed the door and walked in, bringing in a chill of autumn.

It's Yuan Ying!

Yuan Ying stood in front of me in a busy manner and looked at the description that he came over directly after meeting Khan. I looked at Chi Luoyue in astonishment and she quickly explained: "It's all because the guards in the palace can't hide things from their mouths. The Third Highness accidentally Hearing the guard's conversation, he kept questioning me and my son-in-law, we really couldn't hide it, so we had no choice but to tell the truth."

So, I slowly got up and bowed very respectfully in Yuan Ying's direction: "Caomin has seen His Highness the Third."

Yuan Ying took a few steps forward as if he wanted to help me, paused for a while, and finally slowly lowered his outstretched hand, he turned sideways and said to Luo Yue: "Princess, can you let us two talk alone."

Chi Luoyue nodded slightly and walked out.

Yuan Ying sat down at the table, the corner of his robe was a little dirty: "How are you... how are you?"

There was an inexplicable sadness in his heart when he asked this question, I twitched the corners of my lips and replied: "Caomin is all well, thank you, Third Highness, for someone to take care of Caomin on the way."

A little loneliness flashed in Yuan Ying's eyes: "I didn't take good care of you, you... suffered..."

I smiled and felt sour in my heart: "The third highness has done enough for the grassroots, and the grassroots are very content." After thinking about it, I think it is necessary to emphasize, "Your Highness will not take risks for the grassroots again in the future."

Suddenly, he grabbed my arm and his voice seemed anxious and worried: "If I say I want to protect you, I will always protect you! You...will you?"

When I met his sincere eyes, my vision became a little blurred, and the corners of my eyes were a little moist. How could anyone be willing to help me when I was so down and down?

But it is precisely because I am too downcast that I shouldn't lead other people. I cleared my thoughts and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Highness, the grassroots don't want to hurt anyone."

Yuan Yi didn't answer directly, he was silent for a while and his suppressed voice sounded alone: ​​"But I don't think you are burdening me, I..."

"But the grass people don't want to!" Silently withdrawing the arm that was grabbed by him, I stood up and walked to the window, "Your Highness, forget about me, Your Highness still has a long way to go."

Yuan Ying also stood up, his eyes were as dim as that beautiful jade lost its luster, and the flowers lost their color, he gave a low wry smile: "As expected."

"If this is what you wish, I will follow you." After a few steps, he stopped at the door, "Second brother will come to Xianbei tomorrow, if you want to see him, you know what to do."

Because of Yuan Ying's last sentence, I was stupefied all afternoon. He will come when we crusade against the Huns, and he... will come...

The news of the upcoming war spread throughout the streets and alleys, and the people of Xianbei lived in panic. After all, no one likes war.As long as there is war, there will be casualties, families will be destroyed, and wives will be separated.

The sun is setting, and a bright moon hangs high in the treetops, curved and white like a dog's tooth.

"What are you thinking?" I was startled when Zeng Fan came out from under the shadow of the tree.

I was standing in the courtyard blowing the cool breeze, and when he disturbed me, I immediately lost interest and got up and walked into the house. Zeng Fan followed into the house with a shy face: "The Second Highness will arrive in Xianbei tomorrow, if you want to see him, tell me in advance Let me arrange it for you."

I didn't lift my head back to him: "No see!"

"Hey, you still have a backbone?!"

I pouted and said nothing.

"I've heard about the things between you and the Second Highness. In fact, the Second Highness cares about you very much. Otherwise, why do you think he deliberately angered the Huns and ruined the marriage?"

I expected that this matter was related to me, but it was still a little uncomfortable to hear a bystander say so Shi Shiran, so I gave him an angry look: "I want you to take care of it!"

He raised his eyelids with an unpredictable smile: "This time, His Royal Highness will stay here when he arrives in Xianbei. You can do whatever you want. But don't blame me for not reminding you that once a war starts, no one can guarantee who will survive." When you come back, don’t do anything you regret.”

Yes, a sword has no eyes.

Recently, I seem to be too sentimental about autumn, because I didn't close my eyes all night because of Zeng Fan's words, so both eyes became panda eyes the next day.

As usual, I went shopping around the street and went to the bookstore to read a few books, and then I entered the restaurant. The owner of the restaurant knew me very well. I came in and greeted me immediately: "Mr. Zhang is here, what do you want to eat this time?"

I waved my hand and said boldly, ""Let me have a few jars of wine and a few plates of appetizers, but this time I want a private room. "

The boss grinned and went to make arrangements, and I followed the waiter up to the second floor and entered a private room.

After a while, the table was full of wine and food.

He picked up a wine jar and raised his head and took a big gulp. After a while, he drank totteringly.

I remember who said that being drunk can relieve a thousand worries, but unfortunately I am so drunk that I am still depressed.

I grabbed the wine jar and kept muttering nonsense, and then the shop waiter opened the door and came in and sent me back to my residence.

After sleeping until dawn, my brain hurts after dawn.

I think I should be stupid, and I still can't figure it out, because I went to the restaurant again that day and was sent back drunk as well.

The third day, the fourth day... every day is like this...

I didn't drink until the tenth day, because the war between the Xiongnu and the Xianbei of Luo State officially kicked off on this day.I no longer have to worry that I can't help but look for him. He should get up and go to the barracks now.

Sitting idly in the courtyard, enjoying the wind and eating snacks, leisurely...

The door was knocked open suddenly, and the person who came was a young general covered in blood.

I know this person, he is Zeng Fan's confidant, seeing his description right now makes me feel cold.

The young general who stepped forward to support him suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, which made me tremble with fear: "How is Zeng Fan?!"

The blood stains on the young general's face looked terrible and tragic: "My son-in-law, he is fine..."

"It's fine, it's fine..."

Suddenly, an extremely bad premonition quickly spread in his heart. If Zeng Fan was fine, why would he come here with injuries all over his body? Could it be...

"The two princes of Luo Kingdom are surrounded by enemy troops, and the son-in-law said that the little one must take you there!"

Yuanyi and Yuanying are under siege!

When I rushed to the barracks without stopping, it was already the setting sun.

Outside the big tent, there was smoke and lingering wind, and the corpses of the fallen soldiers were piled up not far away, and the sound of fighting and howling continued.

I opened the curtain and walked in. Chi Luojing was discussing the battle plan with the generals. When I came in, I gave a wink to a soldier next to me, and the soldier took me out.

He led a team of people and took me to the place where the gunpowder smoke was strong in the distance.

As the gunpowder smoke got closer and closer, the nervousness and fear in my heart became more and more obvious, like a scourge becoming more and more irresistible. I asked the soldier in front of me, "Are they... still alive?" His voice was trembling, full of uncontrollable panic.

The soldier stared at the front with desolate eyes: "He is still alive, but the possibility of breaking through is too small."

It's not impossible, as long as you plan carefully, there will always be a way.However, this idea completely lost its convincing after I arrived in the valley.

The long and narrow valley was full of Huns soldiers. A group of soldiers in the valley was tightly surrounded by a group of Huns soldiers. Occupying a favorable position for combat made Yuanyi and the others even more useless.

"The top of this valley was originally our soldiers, but the Huns attacked the troops on the valley just after the war, which led to the current situation." The soldier said while looking at the corpses scattered all over the valley.

Yuanyi Yuanying was dressed in general armor, holding a long sword, covered in blood, and occasionally the knife slashed them, but they still gritted their teeth and insisted on not saying a word.

The long sword in his hand rises and falls, one by one figures fall, Huns soldiers, Xianbei soldiers and... Luo Guo soldiers...

Everything shocking in front of me is so real and so cruel, war always brings only pain.

All of a sudden, I came up with a plan, to treat the other person with his own way.

Maybe this is the only way to survive.

I resolutely said to the soldiers: "I have a plan to save them, would you like to give it a try?"

The soldier exchanged a wink with me and his eyes immediately became as firm as a rock: "Yes!"

Half an hour later, I took a small group of people and sneaked around the other side of the valley and went up the mountain. The enemy troops guarding above the valley were obviously relaxed because of their obvious advantages. They stood on the mountain and shouted for their soldiers. Notice us approaching.

When they realized that we had pushed them down the valley and quickly occupied half of the mountain, the soldiers who killed the enemy in the valley immediately regained their morale and started fighting again when they saw the reinforcements coming.

Amidst the smoke and sand, as the figures were fighting, a cold gaze pierced through and cast on my face.

I smiled lightly at the man, he seemed quite surprised and worried about his gains and losses, but that emotion was only for a moment, and soon he was thrown into the war again.

Slowly our army fought to create a gap in the Xiongnu army, and the soldiers began to rush to the gap desperately. At this moment, Chi Luojing also led reinforcements.

Attacked on both sides, the Xiongnu army was quickly killed out of a bigger gap.

Yuan Yi commanded all the soldiers to retreat quickly, but he was surrounded by the Huns. He was also surrounded by a few soldiers. Someone shouted, "There will be a lot of rewards for capturing the prince Shanyu of Luo Kingdom!" A little tired The Xiongnu soldiers became excited again.

Soon, all the soldiers in the encirclement were wiped out, leaving only Yuanyi to fight alone inside. Yuan Ying scolded Luo Jing and they were blocked by the rest of the Huns and it was difficult to approach.

While Yuan Yi wasn't paying attention to a Hun soldier slashing at his waist with a big knife, I couldn't help but exclaimed: "Second Highness!"

The distance between me and Yuanyi is already far away, and now the two armies are fighting and shouting, and I did not expect Yuanyi to hear the shouts.But in the rain of blood from the blade, Yuan Yi's lips were stained with blood, and there was a faint smile. He stared in my direction for a while, and he didn't come back to his senses until the Huns slashed on his shoulder again.

The cool wind swept across the area, blinding the eyes but not disturbing the heart.

At this moment, at this moment, I finally made my heart clear.

I don't want you to die, Yuan Yi, I don't want you to die!
