The first favorite of rebirth

As the night deepened, Jue Yun's movements also stopped, and he slowly put Pei Jiqing on the bed, "It's really hot here, do you want to take a bath?"

"Wait a minute, I'm so sleepy." Pei Jiqing didn't care about the stickiness on his body, and stretched out his hands and lay flat on the bed, Jue Yun also lay down with his head on his arm, stretching out his hand to play with his hair.

"You're so big, don't press me down." Pei Jiqing pushed Jue Yun's head, "I told Fu Congjin, we must find a way to make King Huai rebel, so that we can use this as an excuse to take back his soldiers and horses, why don't you Here again? I see King Huai's attitude, but I'm afraid of you and Fu Congjin."

"When you were away, something happened in the capital." Jue Yun turned around and gently put his arms around his waist, and then said in a low voice: "Huang Yushi stated that he impeached Lin Chen for using power for personal gain, abused torture to extract confessions, and said that Empress Lin accepted bribes. , Lin Chen promoted many people in private, and the evidence is conclusive. But Lin Chen has always had an extraordinary relationship with Fu Congjin, and no one dared to question him. Thinking of Fu Congjin personally admonishing Lin Chen not to abuse his power and fined his salary after being demoted, I thought it was Fu Congjin's plan to slow down the army, but recently I heard from Xiao Wansheng that Lin Yan was very dissatisfied with this and complained more than once."

"Lin Yan likes Xiao Wansheng very much, but I don't think she will tell lies." Pei Jiqing asked, "What's the name of that Huang Yushi?"

"I heard that he is a Jinshi of the new department, you definitely don't recognize it." Jue Yun thought about it, "Huang Li, he is not very old."

"Lin Chen is so powerful, even a Jinshi of the new science department, he should have heard of this country's uncle, who may be cannon fodder." Pei Jiqing thought for a moment, "Lin Chen sometimes makes his own ideas, Fu Congjin is indeed a little dissatisfied with him, Huang Yushi The matter is probably an excuse, just to catch Lin Chen out."

"Not only Lin Chen, but also me." Jue Yun said in a low voice: "The regent sent me tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and asked me to come to Lingnan with King Huai to withdraw the vassal. Incorporating the imperial court, that's how it is, King Huai was very nervous, thinking that Fu Congjin knew what he meant. He was afraid that I would become suspicious, so he tied you up immediately. But I think that in the end, King Huai is nothing to worry about, probably because you are in a hurry Going to Lingnan made Fu Congjin feel that we should cooperate internally and externally. When King Huai raised an army, he must be suppressed by generals, but no matter who he sent to go, he was not at ease. Anyway, King Huai was a softie, so he simply withdrew the vassal."

"Fu Congjin's personality has not changed. He has never trusted anyone from the beginning to the end." Pei Jiqing smiled, "Then he will not completely delegate power to you when he entrusts his soldiers and horses to you. You have to be careful of the people around you."

"I have a lieutenant beside me who has half of the Tiger Talisman in his hand. I guess he will report to Fu Congjin every move he makes recently." Jue Yun lowered his head and rubbed against Pei Jiqing, and said pitifully, "Uncle Pei, your baby is living like this!" Miserable, are you still willing to leave?"

"If I'm not bound, I'll really believe your nonsense." Pei Jiqing sneered, "Why don't you untie my uncle soon?"

At this moment, there was a maid knocking on the door, and both of them hurriedly silenced their voices. After getting permission, the maid opened the door and came in. She put a bucket of hot water on the ground, and the steam filled the room instantly.

"Golden and jade beauty, she is a perfect match, I am reluctant to open it." Jue Yun picked up Pei Jiqing and put it gently into the wooden barrel. He unbuttoned his underwear and sat down Come in, hold Pei Jiqing in his arms from behind.

Pei Jiqing struggled a few times, and said with red eyes: "I warn you, don't be messed up again, be careful when someone comes in later."

"You said... 'come in'?"

Pei Jiqing's eyes were red, and he really looked like a soft rabbit. Jue Yun couldn't help but bite him lightly, but he really didn't do anything. Instead, he lowered his head and uncuffed him, "Your skin is so soft White, it looks even better with gold, King Huai has raised so many beauties in vain, and he knows a lot about sex."

"King Huai is cowardly again, but in front of Fu Congjin, you must also threaten King Huai with him. This image is not easy to change." Although Pei Jiqing blushed again, her tone relaxed a little. He took the handcuffs from Jueyun's hand to look at them, and said with a smile: "Since we are all here, how can we do what the Regent wants? This is another chance. From tomorrow onwards, you will treat me like King Huai. Generally, if you punish me, you must make King Huai feel that we are still at odds."

Jue Yun laughed and said, "What did you just say? 'Rectification'...?"

Pei Jiqing pinched her thigh, wishing that she was dreaming, and when she woke up, Jueyun was still that brat, and then she held him in her hand and beat him up severely.

Unfortunately, the root of the thigh still hurts.

On the second day, Jue Yun brought Pei Jiqing to the barracks outside the city. As soon as he entered the barracks, a general who had never met immediately stepped forward to greet him. The deputy was Wang Yue, who was holding half of the tiger talisman. Although he is Fu Congjin's man, he is very humble when facing Jue Yun.

Someone came to report in a hurry that the food and grass transported by the second team had been robbed by bandits. Jueyun ordered some men and horses to hand over to the general, and ordered: "We have walked all the way, and there is no flat land here. Presumably the bandits are too." They dared to rob the imperial court’s rice grains only when they couldn’t sustain themselves. If they sincerely surrender, then don’t kill them all.”

Jue Yun issued orders with a certain posture, Pei Jiqing couldn't help smiling, Jue Yun turned his head and pinched him, "You also prepare quickly, King Huai is coming soon."

King Huai will come to the camp for a banquet today, Jue Yun took Wang Yue away, Pei Jiqing immediately ran to the kitchen, mixed the ink with the chili sauce used for barbecue, and spread it on himself with a brush, the oil from the barbecue sauce It was stained on the white clothes, and there were patches of brownish-yellow marks. Apart from the smell of barbecue, it really looked like deep blood stains left after being beaten hard.

After the banquet, the soldiers began to practice. King Huai walked out of the main tent with several generals. Pei Jiqing sat alone in the stable, still wearing the handcuffs, and a golden chain was hung on his handcuffs. Fasten securely to the stable stakes.

It's just that it's hot in Lingnan, the chili sauce on his face can't hold together, it feels like it's going to melt soon.

Fortunately, King Huai only took one look at him from a distance, then turned around as if nothing had happened, he didn't feel that he had betrayed Pei Jiqing, Jue Yun looked at his expression, smiled and said: "Thank you, my lord, for sending this person to me, I have severely punished him yesterday. , presumably he will not run away again, he fled here, probably like the little prince, he felt that the beautiful mountains and clear waters in Lingnan were suitable for escaping, not for anything else..."

When Fu Congsi was mentioned, King Huai immediately nodded with guilt: "Of course!"

At this time, a soldier suddenly knelt in front of Jue Yun, "My lord, General Lang... our people are back, but the food and grass of the second team..."

Jue Yun frowned, feeling that the soldiers and horses must be at a disadvantage, "My lord, this mountain bandit in the south of the Lingnan dared to rob the court's rice grain?"

Jue Yun hadn't finished speaking, the team rushed over just now, almost one-third of the original number of people were lost, and the soldiers were all in a state of distress, seriously injured, some had a purple face, and a deep hole in their arm. With Broken Arrow.

Jue Yun's face was calm, but his heart was extremely angry. He knelt down and looked at the man's wound, but the man took a step back and said in horror: "General, don't touch me, this arrow is poisonous!"

"It's okay, it's poisonous, so you have to pull it out quickly." Jue Yun frowned, and quickly pulled out the broken arrow while speaking. Don’t worry about food and grass, don’t go into the mountains blindly.”

King Huai immediately flattered, "The general really cherishes soldiers and horses, and he is respectful to corporals. This king really admires him."

The team was seriously injured, Jue Yun said in a low voice: "The last general underestimated the enemy, I thought they were just desperate poor people, but I didn't expect them to be so vicious and dare to kill the people of the court."

"The general doesn't know that the mountains and rivers in the South of the Five Ridges are poor, and there are many vicious foreigners living in the mountains. They don't know how to read, and they have even experienced cannibalism. How can they tell the imperial convoy apart? They must think they are passing merchants." King Huai suddenly realized something, and took the opportunity to say: "The general also saw that the imperial court withdrew the domain, and I agreed with both hands and feet, but the situation in Lingnan is complicated, and bandits have been committing crimes for many years. For this matter, I think I have to wait a little longer..."

After he said this, he immediately winked at the generals around him, and those people also echoed: "Your Highness is absolutely right."

"The prince is right. The final general is not an unreasonable person. We should wait for the bandits to be removed and the surroundings to settle down before we can recruit the soldiers." The soldiers are the capital of King Huai's army. It was a good excuse, he patted the injured soldier on the shoulder, "Go and rest first, the bandits are dangerous, I will go in person."

The soldier didn't speak, just nodded his head heavily, and in the afternoon, the sun became more and more fierce, Jue Yun said: "My lord, your body is precious, why don't you go back and rest first, and then go to the mansion after the general has finished dealing with this matter." Get together."

King Huai longed to leave Jue Yun, he immediately nodded and said: "This king is old, he is indeed in poor health, he is not as brave as a young general."

King Huai hurried away in a soft sedan chair, Jue Yun untied the chain when he walked to the stable, he pulled Pei Jiqing up with a cold face, but instead of taking him back to the main tent, he went to a nearby stream.

The deputy general in the main tent was watching, but he was not used to saying anything. Fortunately, there are many wildernesses in the south of Lingnan.Although Mingzhou City is a plain, the outside of the city is surrounded by mountains towering into the clouds. When you look up, you can see the green color. Jue Yun took out a handkerchief from his body and wiped the chili sauce off his face. When the handkerchief was close to the corner of his eyes, Pei Yun Jiqing couldn't help but burst into tears, and Jueyun followed him with tears in his eyes. The two stood facing each other, but they couldn't help laughing.

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there are only a few insects chirping between the heaven and the earth, as if there are only two of them in this world.Pei Jiqing suddenly had the idea of ​​molesting Jueyun, he looked at Jueyun pretending to be pitiful, "General Lang, please do me a favor, don't lock me up."

"I'm not afraid to lock you up. You smell like garlic." Jueyun didn't answer his criticism, turned around and took off his coat, "Go in and wash it, it stinks to death. Put garlic in it."

Pei Jiqing's eyes widened angrily, and he had no choice but to take off his clothes and dive into the stream. Jue Yun threw away his coat and sat on the rock beside him. He lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something.

"There are indeed unreasonable mountain people in the world, so we have to think long-term." Pei Jiqing turned around in the water, raised her hand to untie her hair, "Don't dare to act recklessly when dealing with those foreigners who don't pay attention."

"I know." Jue Yun nodded, and took out the map from his body, "Although I have never been to southern Xinjiang, I have asked the locals to draw a detailed map. I just asked you to come out, and I also wanted to discuss it with you."

"Although these bandits are vicious, they are just taking advantage of our underestimation of the enemy. The mountain where they are located is complex in terrain, but if they are blocked from here, they can only go down the canyon. This place is narrow, and then..." Jue Yun sat on the rock Looking at it carefully, his brows became more and more wrinkled, "This place is not big, and there will not be many bandits. Compared with dealing with the Liao people in Saibei, this is not a difficult idea. Why have bandits... ..."

Pei Jiqing said in a low voice: "You mean that King Huai let himself go and worked with bandits..."

Jue Yun stared at the map closely, and remained silent for a long time.
