Chongxi [rebirth]

As I said before, Ye Fan grew up being held in the palm of his hand.Not only is the Duke's Mansion pampering him, but because of Mrs. Yin, the Yin family also dotes on him very much.The Yin family's foundation is in Yunrong, but because the two families are related by marriage, they often visit each other.

One year when Ye Wang went to Yunrong Yin's house as a guest, he brought back a falcon with a white nape and a light brown crown.This falcon was born strong and mighty, alert and fierce. It was originally the falcon king of the Yin family's falcon garden.

Northern Zhao Shangwu, the ferocious falcons are very popular among the noble families, and the falcons are rich in Weizhou, and more than half of the falcons in the Yin family's falcon garden come from Weizhou.

And the falcon brought back by Ye Fan is even more special, it was hunted by Ye Fan's eldest cousin on the grassland at the border of Weizhou and Xihuang. This falcon was originally a pair of brothers, one of which was captured by Ye Fan. The cousin brought back Yunrong to domesticate, and the remaining one was said to have been sent to the Northern Xinjiang Governor's Mansion.

These are what Ye Wang said when he brought Saker Falcon in front of him to show off. Ye Yunting had already forgotten about this, but when he saw Ye Wang, he suddenly remembered it.

Nowadays, the post stations at the gates of various states are heavily guarded and it is not easy to pass through.But this Saker, no one will come to check.

He still remembered that Ye Wan once showed off to him that when he begged for this falcon, his elder cousin was very reluctant, because this falcon king is not only good at hunting, but it can also travel between Weizhou and Yunrong by itself, often together It took a month or two to go to Weizhou, and he and his brothers stayed in the Northern Xinjiang Governor's Mansion to eat and drink, and when they had enough time, they returned to Yunrong by themselves.

But later Ye Wang brought Saker Falcon back to Shangjing, carefully raised it in the mansion, and never let it go out alone again.

Ye Yunting considered the possibility of letting Saker deliver the letter.

Yunrong belongs to Jizhou, and the west of Jizhou is close to Weizhou. The distance between the two places is not far. If you use manpower, you can take the official road and take half a month to reach it.If it is replaced by a Saker, it should be able to arrive in seven or eight days at most.

It's just that there is no guarantee that Saker can deliver the secret letter to Zhu Wen accurately.

Ye Yunting turned his mind a few times, and when he looked at Ye Wang again, his expression became softer.He raised his hand to pick up the teapot on the small table, poured two cups of hot tea, put one cup in front of Ye Wang, held the cup himself, and took a sip slowly.

Ye Wang looked at the tea in front of him and moved uncomfortably.

This was the first time for the two brothers to sit together and drink tea calmly. In the past, every time he came to the door arrogantly to make trouble, Ye Yunting usually let him finish the trouble, and then sent the guests off in a good manner.His temper is like that of a clay figurine, as if no matter what he does, he can't make the slightest disturbance in the other party's heart. In the end, he left angrily after saying some harsh words.

Rarely do brothers and sisters respect each other so much.

Second Young Master Ye is not used to it, but also... flattered.

But he didn't show it at all on his face. He picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp. He raised his chin and said proudly: "Did King Yong'an bully you? Why didn't you go home when the Three Dynasties returned?"

"My lord treats me very well." Ye Yunting put down his teacup, and said in a gentle voice, "As for returning from the three dynasties, my lord and I are both men, and we didn't follow the old rules of marriage between a man and a woman. In addition, I occasionally feel cold, so I'm afraid it will be a disaster when I go back. To make my parents worry, I didn't go back."

His complexion is three points paler than Xue's, and his appetite for taking medicine these days is also poor, and he is thinner than when he was in the Duke's mansion.It is quite convincing to say this.

Ye Fan didn't doubt it at all.

"Then when are you coming back?"

Ye Yunting smiled: "At least we have to wait until he recovers."

Ye Fan frowned, and was barely satisfied with the answer: "Then you will come back sometime when you recover from illness, both father and mother miss you very much." After speaking, he moved again, as if a thorn had been stabbed in his buttocks.

"Okay." Ye Yunting agreed, and felt that the time was almost up, so he refilled a cup of tea before getting to the point: "By the way, is your Saker still kept in the mansion?"

Ye Wang said "yes", the falcon is his sweetheart, and he specially borrowed two servants who are proficient in raising falcons from the Yin family to take care of it.

"Why do you suddenly ask about it?" Ye Wang looked at Ye Yunting suspiciously, seeing him lowered his eyes in embarrassment, suddenly his heart was filled with happiness, and he said proudly, "Have you taken a fancy to my falcon?"

He was more up-to-date than Ye Yunting thought, and Ye Yunting naturally responded when he heard the words: "Well, I read some idle books when I was recuperating, and suddenly I want to try taming falcons."

"It's fine to borrow from you." Ye Wan looked at him with a look of color on his face and said, "But you have to exchange things."

"what?"

Ye Wan pointed to a jade pendant on his waist: "Well, I want this jade pendant."

Ye Yunting lowered his head and looked at his waist, where only a piece of worthless gourd jade pendant hung.This jade pendant was bought as a birthday gift for him and Ji Lian when the nanny was still alive. It is not a good jade, and the carving work is not ordinary.That is, the meaning of "Fu Lu" in the picture of a gourd.He and Ji Lian are alone.Nothing special, not worth a few silver coins.

"Are you sure you want this?" Ye Yunting frowned, unable to guess the younger brother's intention for a moment.

"I don't want your piece." Ye Fan rolled his eyes and said, "A gentleman doesn't take what others like, doesn't your book boy also have a piece? Just give me his piece."

Ye Yunting became more and more confused about why, but this jade pendant was a gift from the nanny, it's fine for him to give it to Ye Wang, but not for Ji Lian.

He shook his head, smiled and took off the jade pendant from his waist: "The two jade pendants are exactly the same, since you like it, I will give you mine." After speaking, he handed the untied jade pendant to Ye Wan.

"..." Ye Wu stared and became angry without warning: "I want his piece, it's different!"

"What's different?" Ye Yunting asked.

"Anyway, it's different!" Ye Wang's expression became more and more annoyed, he glared at Ye Yunting angrily, but he couldn't tell what was different.In the end, he could only reach out and grab the jade pendant and stuff it into his bosom: "Forget it, I don't care about you. I'll bring you the Saker Falcon later!"

After finishing speaking, you hurry up and glared at Ye Yunting with an expression that I don't want to see you.

Ye Yunting didn't understand why he was angry again, but Ye Fan's temperament was always cloudy, and his temper would come when he said it. Since he had promised to send the falcon, he didn't want to cause any more conflicts, so he said "thank you": " Then I'll go home first."

Ye Wan saw him lift the curtain of the carriage, get out of the carriage calmly,

Ji Lian, who was waiting outside, went to hold his arm, and the master and servant entered the palace by the door.

Ye Wan suddenly became even more angry, threw the curtain of the carriage, and shouted: "Go home, go home!"

Ye Yunting was supported by Ji Lian and walked towards the main courtyard. The two guards finally felt relieved when they saw that his illness did not seem to be a fake, and that he was peaceful from the beginning to the end.

The master and the servant did not enter the room until Ye Yunting put away his weakness and sickness, told Ji Lian to close the door, and walked into the room quickly.

In the room, Li Fengqi was holding a book of medical skills to study, when he saw him blowing in front of him like a gust of wind, his eyes flashed with excitement: "I have a way to send a letter to northern Xinjiang."

Under Li Fengqi's gaze, he explained the relationship between Saker Falcon and Northern Xinjiang: "It's just that there is no guarantee that it will be delivered to the deputy governor."

"It can be delivered." Li Fengqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and tapped his fingers on the pages of the book: "If my guess is correct, the other falcon is raised by Zhu Wen."

Weizhou is rich in hunting falcons, and the Northern Xinjiang Governor's Mansion is located in Weizhou, so naturally a lot of hunting falcons are also raised.

Although he has no free time, Zhu Wen likes domesticating the falcon the most, and has shown off his very brave falcon in front of him many times.

"Then it's easy to handle." Ye Yunting laughed, and then he was a little distressed: "The letter can be delivered by Saker, but just in case, the secret letter should not be written too clearly. I have read some encrypted letters in books. The method. But the deputy governor may not be able to solve it..."

He frowned thoughtfully, his expression very solemn.

Li Fengqi glanced at him, then glanced again, seeing that he had already brought a pen and paper to try to write out the secret language, and just now said: "I communicate with Zhu Wen in a secret language that others cannot understand."

After speaking, he took the pen in his hand and wrote on the blank space of the page: "There are many confidential and important tasks in the army, and the correspondence between letters is in danger of being intercepted and leaked. Therefore, before leading the soldiers to go out, they will agree on a set of codes for interrogation."

While talking, he wrote a song "March with the Army" in the margin of the book.

The beacon illuminates Xijing, and his heart is insecure.

Yazhang resigned from Fengque and rode around Dragon City.

The snow is dark withered and the flag is painted, and the wind is full of jumbled drums.

Better to be a centurion than a scholar.

Ye Yunting didn't understand what it meant: "How to explain this?"

"This is the key that I agreed upon before I came to Beijing." Li Fengqi put down his pen, and pointed at the poem with his fingers: "In the hands of the general of the Xuanjia Army, there are another forty items of military affairs, each of which can correspond to a word in this poem."

Ye Yunting heard the words, and said with knowledge and interest: "In this case, the secret letter is handed over to the prince." After speaking, he looked to avoid suspicion, took a step back, and lowered his eyes to stop looking.

However, Li Fengqi raised his eyebrows when he saw this: "You don't want to know?"

Not being fooled, Ye Yunting lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes: "It is a military secret, so naturally it cannot be disclosed to outsiders."

"You are not an outsider." Li Fengqi smiled very lightly and quickly, then suppressed his smile, and waved to him: "Come here, let me tell you what to say."

Ye Yunting raised his head in surprise, seeing his serious expression, he took a sip of his lips, and finally couldn't help but leaned forward curiously, sat by the bed and listened to him in detail.

The method of word verification has always been used in military communications, and he also has a little understanding of this.But these are just from the book, never used in practice.

"There are forty items in military affairs. The first is asking for bows, the second is asking for arrows, the third is asking for knives... the eighteenth is asking for perseverance... the thirty-ninth is all generals are sick, the forty is a small victory in battle." Li Fengqi lowered his eyes, every time he said One item, he added an item on the page, his handwriting is like a fly, very small, but still not concealing its vigor.

"Each of these items corresponds to a word in the poem in order." Li Fengqi circled the words "around" and "for" in the poem.

"Do you understand?" He raised his head to look at Ye Yunting, his eyes were deep and calm, even though he was bedridden, he was still the king of Yong'an who strategized and won the victory thousands of miles away.

Ye Yunting followed the forty military affairs he wrote one by one: 32th, please stick to it; [-]nd, thieves besieged.

It means that the crisis has been resolved and the soldiers will not move.
