Hero Tomb

Lu Yao going to the Western Regions, even if he rushed fast, it would take at least four months. What's more, before going to the Western Regions, the Mongolian army in Guanzhou City had not yet achieved results, and it seemed impossible to let it go. Yuan must have waited for the imperial reinforcements to arrive, so he wrote a piece of letter paper in the room with only three simple words on it - drive away foreign bandits, and handed it to his attendants.

He Lanyuan watched suspiciously, couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Is there really no problem with you like this?"

Bai Huachen smiled lightly at him: "You just have to rest assured, I guarantee that when you save your brother and come back here, Guanzhou City will still be recovered."

Seeing Bai Huayu's confident look, He Lanyuan didn't ask any more questions, after all, he was more worried about his brother's safety at this moment.After explaining everything, Bai Huajiao only chose two people, Du Yi and Yantai, and He Lanyuan only brought two people, Pan Yu and Shen Da, and the six of them rode lightly and kept their horses straight to the direction of the Western Regions. .

At the same day, the letter paper written by Bai Huachao was quickly sent to Yujian Villa in Guanzhou City. The head of Yujian Villa was a young man who was only [-] years old, and his surname was Wanqi (mòqí) A character named Ye, although he is young, everyone in the world calls him Mr. Suyi.

After receiving Bai Huajiao's order, Wan Chengye frowned slightly: "Where is Master Shaozhuang?"

The sender was a little helpless: "The young master accompanied Mr. Yuheng to the Western Regions."

Wan Chengye raised his eyebrows: "Yu Heng? Is it his new beauty?"

The sender sighed in his heart, but his face was serious: "She is a rare and beautiful woman, but...cough...the young master has not yet arrived..." Although these words are somewhat disrespectful, they are also true.

Wan Tengye laughed loudly: "No wonder, you can't enter through the door. It turns out that it is to win the heart of the beautiful woman." He hissed, and said: "It seems that this young master Yuheng is not a vulgar person. , I would like to see you if I have the opportunity, lest the young master don’t know how to cherish it, I can remind you by the side.”

The sender complained in his heart: You clearly want to poach someone, okay?It's not like you haven't dug the foot of our young master's wall, and every time you dig it, you throw it away. It's simply worse than our young master!

After receiving Bai Huajiao's order, Wan Qiye also took a look in his heart. To be honest, Wan Qiye wanted to deal with these Mongolian Tartars who invaded his country, but the result was still his own. Some losers, not to mention other things, once the outbreak occurs, whether Yujian Villa has the possibility to resist the Mongolian army is not for the time being, if the people in the city suffer again and are used as hostages by the Mongolian Tartars, it is really not worth the loss, so, He had to wait for an opportunity, preferably to wipe out these foreign invaders in one fell swoop without hurting the people in the city, and the imperial court's reinforcements were the opportunity he wanted.

Although the courts of the rivers and lakes have never interfered with each other, if the survival of the country is at stake, it is not impossible for the two sides to join forces.

He Lanqing was defeated this time and was falsely accused, and the He family army was almost in a state of being refrigerated by the emperor.After the news of the fall of Guanzhou spread to the capital, the emperor was furious and banned the He family, and then ordered the fourth prince, Shangguan Qingmo, to lead the army to go to Guanzhou to recover the lost land.Most of the civil and military officials responded to this incident with a cold-eyed attitude. The He family army, which was a fortified wall of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was defeated this time. How can Shangguan Qingmo, a pampered prince, turn the tide?Except for a few veterans who were still begging the emperor to release He Chengyi and let him send troops to avenge his crimes, there was no one in the big court who spoke.

In the court hall, Shangguan Qingmo knelt down to receive the decree. After returning to his palace, the fourth imperial concubine heard the news and came to serve him tea and water. I heard the news from the previous court that the emperor ordered you to lead the army to go out, but is it true?"

Shangguan Qingmo said: "Of course it's true." Seeing his wife's worried eyes, Shangguan Qingmo grabbed his wife's hand and patted it: "Don't worry, I will return safely this time."

The fourth imperial concubine sighed: "Since it was the imperial father's decree, I dare not say too much, I just hope you can remember that no matter what happens, the children and I will wait for you in the palace."

Shangguan Qingmo smiled: "I will remember" the topic changed, and suddenly remembered something: "Where are Wu Hai and Wu Yi?"

These two are the sons of Shangguan Qingmo. The eldest son, Shangguan Hai, is now eighteen years old and married two years ago. The second son, Shangguan Yi, is now ten years old. Both of them are blood relatives of the Fourth Imperial Concubine.

The fourth imperial concubine sighed softly: "Zhilan is not feeling well, Haier accompanied her back to the Grand Duke's Mansion, Yier must still be in class at this hour."

Shangguan Qingmo nodded, and sighed with a smile: "Zhilan's body is already eight months old now, maybe the child will be full moon when I come back."

When it came to his daughter-in-law's pregnancy, the fourth imperial concubine's worried expression also became relieved. It has been almost three years since Shangguanhai married Liu Zhilan, the daughter of Duke Taiguo, and now they have their first child. Naturally, people are very relieved. It's just that at this time, Shangguan Qingmo led the army to go out again, which is really unpleasant. If you can return within a year after leading the army, it is already the fastest time. The child's full moon gift, a hundred The daily banquet is destined to miss Shangguan Qingmo in this life.

On the wild road with flying yellow sand, the Dada sound of five horseshoes galloped past, splashing dust...

It has been more than two months since he left Guanzhou. He Lanyuan has been rushing towards the Western Regions non-stop along the way. He is worried about the safety of his parents in the capital and worried about the situation of his brother who is trapped in the Western Regions. After two months, he is getting better and better. The hair is thin and weak, as if it might be blown away by the wind at any time.

It was dark at midnight, and it was really not suitable to continue on the road in the forest. Bai Huajiao pulled the reins, turned his head to look at the crowd, and then directly ordered to rest where he was. The complexion of the person is not easy to force, so he can only get off the horse, but this heart has become more and more uneasy recently.

Du Yi and Yantai tacitly went to the forest to find some wild animals to satisfy everyone's hunger, while Shen Da and Pan Ming were responsible for collecting firewood. On the bonfire, six people gathered together to rest in place.

Bai Huajiao was sitting beside He Lanyuan, and after everyone fell asleep one after another, he also reached out to hold He Lanyuan in his arms. He Lanyuan was visibly stiff, and subconsciously looked up at him.

Bai Huajiao just hooked the corners of his mouth lightly, changed He Lanyuan's position into a more comfortable position, and said in a soft voice: "Let me sleep for a while, I'll call you again when it's dawn."

"But..." He Lanyuan hesitated, and seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted softly by Bai Huajiao: "Shh... everyone is tired, don't talk, close your eyes and sleep for a while, we still have a long way to go to rush"

Sighing lightly, He Lanyuan nodded, no longer being pretentious at the moment, leaning against Bai Huajiao's arms and closing his eyes, these days the journey was too ferocious, so he closed his eyes, within less than half a cup of tea, He Lanyuan Lan Yuan had already fallen asleep, Bai Huajiao put his arms around him lightly, leaned against the tree trunk, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Some things, □□-love, only need money, love and debt are light, a bit boring.

Some things still need some time to grasp slowly. Although the process is long, it is also a kind of fun.

The person in his arms, maybe... is the latter?

The next day, just before dawn, Bai Huajiao woke up everyone, cleaned up casually, got on his horse and continued on his way.The Western Regions are far away, and I'm afraid they won't be able to return in a short time after this trip, and two months later, when Shangguan Qingmo led the reinforcements to Guanzhou City, they were stopped before entering the city.

Not long after the army was stationed outside the city, Wan Chengye came alone outside the army and handed in a letter of worship. Shangguan Qingmo hesitated for a moment before ordering him to be let in.

After entering the main tent, Wan Chengye looked at the prince of the Tian family without kneeling, but just clasped his fists at him as a salute, and watched the generals shouting at him rudely, Wan Chengye just chuckled and didn't care , looked at Shangguan Qingmo and said, "Guanzhou City is now under the control of the Mongolian army. If there is no one in the city to respond, it will be difficult for the fourth prince to attack the city. I'm afraid it will affect the city." The common people are suffering from the disaster again, and I come here at this time, there is only one thing I want to discuss with the fourth prince, whether we can easily regain Guanzhou, it depends on whether the fourth prince is willing to talk about it or not."

Shangguan Qingmo sat behind the desk, pointed out his hand, and a soldier beside him lifted a chair and stepped forward. Wan Tengye also brushed his clothes and sat down generously, without any affectation.

"If it wasn't for the people in the city, Mr. Suyi wouldn't bother to come to our army alone if you want to come. If you are so sincere, how can I not talk about it?" Shangguan Qingmo smiled: "Mr. Suyi just said yes."

Wan Chengye smiled and said: "In this case, I would like to ask all the generals to go out first and stay three meters away from the tent."

As soon as they heard this, someone couldn't calm down and scolded angrily: "Bastard! We will all leave the tent, if you want to harm His Highness..."

"I'm also a citizen of Dazhou!" Before the bearded general finished speaking, Wan Chengye turned to look at him with a smile on his face: "Seeing that foreign barbarians invade our territory and oppress our people, I don't think so Inhumanity, I do this because I don't want the fourth prince to become the second He Lanqing." Turning his eyes, he looked at Shangguan Qingmo, and Wan Chengye's eyes were vaguely contemptuous and provocative : "Or the Fourth Prince doesn't dare to talk about it at all?"

Shangguan Qingmo didn't take it seriously, but ordered to the generals at the side: "You all get out of the tent, and don't come near without permission."

The generals wanted to say something more, but seeing Wan Chengye's posture that everyone didn't leave and he didn't intend to speak, they had no choice but to turn around and leave one by one.

After there were only two people left in the tent, Wan Chengye suddenly smiled and said: "As expected of the prince of the Tian family, he really does not disgrace the royal demeanor."

People in the Jianghu have always spoken recklessly, Shangguan Qingmo didn't care about him, he just said: "Mr. Suyi didn't come here this time to flatter and gossip with me, right?"

Wan Chengye nodded: "Of course not." He stood up and looked down at the map of the border of Guanzhou on the desk. Wan Chengye took a brush and marked a place on it.Shangguan Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly after taking a look.

Putting down his pen, Wan Tengye said: "Although Guanzhou is now the place with the most Mongolian Tartars, the commander's command camp is no longer in the city. Now it is Temur who is in charge of Guanzhou City. As for the commander's iron tower, it is in the city. Here, Zaozhuang is behind Guanzhou City."

Shangguan Qingmo frowned, but said nothing.

Wan Tengye replied: "I have explored before, and the Mongolian army in Zaozhuang basically all turned into ordinary people of Dazhou, leaving only 1000 troops still wearing Mongolian military uniforms and stationed in various passages. Let everyone think that the commander-in-chief has already entered Guanzhou City, and secondly, if Guanzhou City is attacked by foreign enemies, the Mongolian army in Zaozhuang can reinforce it at any time, so you who miscalculated the Mongolian army might be defeated again because of this." , Wan Chengye chuckled: "Even if you are undefeated, you will definitely not get any benefits. If you want to take back Guanzhou, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult."

Shangguan Qingmo smiled: "If this is the case, it will really take a lot of work, but..." Turning to look at him, his eyes were a bit suspicious: "What I am more curious about now is that the Mongolian army has full control Under such circumstances, why is Mr. Suyi so familiar with the affairs of Zaozhuang, why does he leave Guanzhou to come and go freely?"

Wan Tengye chuckled twice: "My Yujian Villa has been standing in the Wulin for nearly a hundred years. If I can't even do such a small thing as checking the situation, I don't know how many times I deserve to die in the Wulin."

Shangguan Qingmo chuckled, did not continue this topic, just nodded: "Mr. Suyi's meaning, this Palace already understands, Mr. Suyi is at ease, the people in Guanzhou City are not only the people of Yujian Villa, but also the people of my elder brother." The subjects of the state of Zhou, what to do, this palace already understands."

Only then was Wan Chengye satisfied: "Then I'm in the city, and I'm just waiting for news from the fourth prince."
