Looking to Chang'an from the North

"I'll ask someone to ask Big Brother later, and I'll hand over the search to him."

Xia Yizheng has an inexplicable feeling for Xia Beixiu. He vaguely knows that his eldest brother may have some opinions on him, but he doesn't believe that he, as a member of the Xia family, can do such a thing anyway.Entrusting this matter to him to investigate can be regarded as a trial and final trust in him, and I hope that my eldest brother will not let me down.

Lin Chuhuai also had some guesses in his heart, but it was not easy for him to say some things, so he could only nod his head slightly.

Xia Beixiu's efficiency was also very high, within three days the traitor was caught out, and he confessed to what he had done.

It was impossible for Xia Yizheng to let this kind of thing go lightly. He personally rewarded this man with eighty army sticks in the school grounds as a warning to others, and this matter was finally exposed.

Lin Chuhuai always felt that the matter was resolved too smoothly, but Xia Yizheng thought that he was overthinking, or he was unwilling to delve into it.

After delivering Guan Heng's coffin, Si Nanxian dispatched troops from the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty to prepare food, and set up camp outside Hankou City. It seemed that he failed somewhere and wanted to win back from here.

However, Tianyu's military rations have not arrived for a long time.

"Your Majesty, all the military rations sent to the northern border have been loaded."

It's not that Xiao Yu didn't prepare the army rations, and he didn't even give Lin Chuheng a chance to force him. On the surface, he, a virtuous gentleman, wanted to be blameless.

"Xue Aiqing, I have given you the full power to transport the food this time. It's a very important matter. Aiqing must be absolutely safe."

He distributed the military rations according to the usual practice, but it is not certain whether they can be shipped to Xia Yizheng smoothly.

Although the emperor's words were cryptic, but in the end it was his confidant who had followed him for many years, how could he not figure out the emperor's mind.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this food will definitely go where it should go."

Where should I go?After all, it will not be the North.

"Well, let's go." Xiao Yu played with the jade seal on the table, a stern look flashed in his eyes.

Xia Yizheng, it's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice, but I'll see what you do without food and grass.

But Xiao Yu's words today reached Lin Xinhe's ears without saying a single word. Since the last time he went to the Qing Palace, Lin Xinhe had arranged for his own people in the imperial study, of course not just the servants.

After all, it's not unreasonable for the Lin family to be feared by Xiao Yu. Some things are just because the Lin family doesn't want to do it, but it doesn't mean they can't do it. What's more, there are too many people who are dissatisfied with the emperor in this world, and they are too easy to bribe.

Although she didn't understand what Xiao Yu really meant, she knew that this person probably didn't want the northern border to be safe.Although Chang Yun has never exposed Xiao Yu's true face in front of her, Lin Xinhe is not stupid, she is very aware of the ruthlessness of the person next to her pillow and the suspicion of the emperor, she has to pay more attention.

Lin Xinhe asked the palace people to retreat, recalling what she had just heard, wrote it on the letter herself, and found a trustworthy person to take the letter to the prime minister's mansion. If she couldn't figure out some things, it would be appropriate to leave it to her father to decide But that's all.

When Prime Minister Lin received the letter, he was holding his wife's shoulders. This was probably something unknown to outsiders between the couple, but it was well known that Mrs. Lin's status in the prime minister's residence was much higher than that of Prime Minister Lin.

Seeing that it was a letter from her daughter, Mrs. Lin immediately snatched it up and opened it to read, but after realizing that what was said in the letter was serious business, she threw the letter to Xiang Lin.

Lin Xiang reluctantly accepted it, and his face became a little dignified after reading a few lines.It is naturally a good thing that His Majesty is willing to take the initiative to deliver food and grass to the northern border, but he always feels that things will not be so simple, at least based on his understanding of His Majesty, it should not be so easy to let it go.

"What's wrong?" Although Shen Jingting didn't read anything wrong from the letter, she could tell something was wrong from her husband's expression.

"It's okay, just tell me, probably because we are worried about Chang Yun's side." Madam thinks that things are always simple, so there is no need for her to worry about it.

Lin Chuheng lit the letter on the candle, not showing it on the surface, but he already had a care in his heart. When the food and grass were delivered, he should send some people to follow along to see.

Si Nanxian camped outside the city, but he was not in a hurry to attack the city, or he just wanted to trap them in the city and wait for the day when they ran out of food and grass, and then went out of the city to surrender.

It's beautiful to think about.

It is true that there is not much food and grass left in the city, and this is already the tenth day that Si Nanxian has been waiting for a rabbit. It is impossible for Xia Yizheng to be trapped in the siege of the city anymore, and now he has to take the initiative to attack.

Even though Si Nanxian might have been prepared for the night attack, he had to face up to it.

The soldiers were organized at night, and the soldiers were extremely fast, but they were still ambushed halfway. It was not just a chess mistake, Si Nanxian seemed to know their movements like the palm of his hand.

There are still secret operations in the army, or the person caught before is not the real traitor, but just a scapegoat.

Xia Yizheng is rarely embarrassed, and the loss of soldiers and horses this time is also immeasurable. After all, if he is not a god, even a victorious general on the battlefield will inevitably stumble.

When he led the troops back to the city, there were only half of the troops left. Before Xia Yizheng had time to regret and blame himself, Zhong Qi was a little surprised and puzzled and said, "General, you are back."

But before Zhong Qi could be happy, he said, "It's bad, just now someone came to report that you were attacked, General, and Master Lin brought a team of people to rescue you."

Xia Yizheng's face changed drastically when he heard this, "Nonsense, he is a person who doesn't even have the ability to protect himself, why is he joining in the fun, he is ignorant and you don't understand either."

This is just weird, Zhong Qi can't stop Lin Chuhuai from doing what he wants to do, but Zhong Qi didn't make any excuses but just listened to the training with his head down. He knew that Yun Ji was just too anxious and didn't intend to blame him.

"Which direction are you going?"

Xia Yizheng also knew that now is not the time to pursue responsibility, the most urgent task is to bring Chang Yun back safe and sound.

"Go to the position of the Northern Qi tent."

As soon as Zhong Qi finished speaking, Xia Yizheng turned around and went to the school grounds. He couldn't imagine what kind of torture Chang Yun would suffer if he fell into Si Nanxian's hands this time.

This is a battlefield, Si Nanxian will never treat Chang Yun with the same courtesy as before.

But the reality is often helpless, the more you are afraid of something, the more things will happen.

Lin Chuhuai was captured alive by Meng Lingsu, or he was tricked by his own people and the enemy.

Meng Lingsu did not treat him as courteously as Lin Chuhuai had treated him before, because he knew very well that kindness to the enemy is softness to himself. If the person in front of him had killed him back then, he would not be in the situation he is today. It turned out to be a defeat. The kindness given to oneself is ridiculous.

He had someone tie up Lin Chuhuai and send him to Si Nanxian's big tent. He didn't want to interfere with how this person would deal with it, and it was better to leave it to Ye Lin.

When Si Nanxian saw Lin Chuhuai, a trace of surprise flashed across his face, but he just glanced at Meng Lingsu unobtrusively, but Meng Lingsu just raised his eyebrows and smiled at him and left.

There were only the two of them left in the tent.

It was Si Nanxian who spoke first, "I really didn't expect that you would fall into my hands one day."

I don't want to say any more nonsense, and when I speak, I am merciless.

"Why do you need to talk too much, the Regent? If you want to kill him, let him know what you want." Lin Chuhuai's face was very calm, and it was almost impossible to see what was going on in his heart.

As a member of the Lin family, he can die without giving others a chance to humiliate him. If it had changed in the past, Lin Chuhuai would have committed suicide by biting his tongue, but he didn't. He still remembered what he promised Xia Yizheng, he wouldn't Enduring humiliation and stealing life, but he will not spare his life as before.

Si Nanxian smiled when he heard the words, this scholar still has a bit of blood, but that's not enough to see.

"Keeping you can get you more than killing you." Si Nanxian wanted to see how much this person was in Xia Yizheng's mind.

"Come here, take him into the dungeon and wait for him."

The water prison is a place where serious criminals are held. They are both in prison and under torture. Although people are immersed in water, they will not suffocate to death in a short period of time, but people in the water prison cannot sleep or rest. Losing strength and drowning in the water is as painful as drowning directly.

Si Nanxian didn't bother to use means to torture his rival in love, but right now Lin Chuhuai was just a somewhat useful captive to him, as long as he kept his breath alive, it would be fine if he couldn't die.

Xia Yizheng arrived very quickly, but Si Nanxian ignored his calls, as if he was determined to torture Lin Chuhuai first.

It wasn't until the second day that the person was tortured by him until he was dying, so he sent people out of the camp to negotiate with Xia Yizheng.

After soaking in cold water for a day and a night, Lin Chuhuai had already lost consciousness from the cold, his skin wrinkled, and in some places, the skin was directly peeled off from the soak, which looked very miserable.

He was taken into the big tent and thrown directly on the ground, still trembling, he didn't look like a bright moon at all.

Si Nanxian squatted in front of Lin Chuhuai and looked at him like this, feeling an unspeakable joy in his heart, so what if he was held in Xia Yizheng's hands, he was still in such a mess.

"However, after only staying in the water prison for a day, I couldn't bear it anymore. Mr. Lin is really delicate."

These words were both sarcastic and a bit harsh that Si Nanxian shouldn't have.

"Heh." Lin Chuhuai tried his best to stretch the corners of his lips into an inconspicuous arc, and sneered.

He raised his head to meet the man's mocking eyes, "If you like him so much, why don't you just kill me?"

Si Nanxian pinched his chin as if he had been stepped on a sore spot, "You think that this king dare not kill you."

But the man's eyes were too indifferent, as if he was really not afraid of threats, and looked down on life and death.

Si Nanxian threw him away, calmed down and said, "You don't have to provoke me on purpose. If I said I wouldn't kill you, then I won't kill you. Besides, Xia Yizheng is outside the camp, and the king fell Let's see what he can do for you."

Lin Chuhuai's Gujingbubo eyes flashed a touch of emotion when he heard Xia Yizheng's name. He was pleased with the arrival of this person and hoped that he would not be stupid because of himself.

Really contradictory.

Si Nanxian also caught the deep panic hidden in this man's expression, and Dang even laughed wantonly, "Ling Su, go ask the Marquis of Zhenbei for this king, I don't know that he is so talented and gorgeous. Madam may be able to exchange for a Hankou city."

Based on that person's deep affection, it's not necessarily impossible for it to be just a city.

Lin Chuhuai suddenly raised his head when he heard this sentence, "Despicable."

But Si Nanxian didn't think it was disobedient, and said with a light smile, "Despicable? This is just a transaction between you and me, just like I am willing to exchange grain and grass with you for Li Song. Whether the transaction can be completed depends on the Marquis of Zhenbei. choose."
