Empress and Empress

Zhou Lang looked at the generals in the military tent, everyone was calm and calm, it seemed that they were not facing the army of dogs, but a few people who were powerless.Everyone wants to make contributions, but not everyone has the courage to face life and death.Zhou Lang asked himself, he didn't know if he still had the courage to go to the battlefield after seeing today's killing.

The meeting dispersed, Zhou Lang followed the resentful Concubine Xian out of the military tent, and after a few steps, Concubine Xian suddenly asked, "Are the generals just now direct descendants of Yuan Xingye?"

Zhou Lang said, "The general only knows that Shen Bing, the leader of the black army, and Luo Yan, who is in charge of the scouts, are Yuan Xingye's confidantes. The others don't know, but Zhao Guangzangqi is also a former general of the Western Army, and he is probably on Yuan Xingye's side." , Zhou Lang smiled wryly in his heart, maybe Shen Bing was right, he was indeed a member of the Concubine Xian family.

Such a self, what qualifications do you have to criticize Pei Shiyuan?Maybe in the hearts of Pei Shiyuan and those generals, he is just a villain attached to his concubine.In the hearts of these frontier soldiers, those fierce generals are the objects of their respect. No wonder those soldiers have always been lukewarm towards them.

Concubine Xian nodded, she knew that the boss didn't want her to come, but she still wanted to attend this meeting, just to talk about military affairs, or to see if she could win over a general.

"General Zhou, who do you think can ask me what to use?" Concubine Xian's tone was very gentle. Zhou Lang knew it was because he could use him, but Concubine Xian was also the backer of his family, so he had to say, "If you choose, I will think that Pei Shiyuan and Pei Shiyuan will use it." Zhang Duanran and these two are feasible."

"I remember that you and Pei Shiyuan seem to have a good relationship," Concubine Xian said.

Zhou Lang thought in his heart that he and Pei Shiyuan had friendship before, few people knew about it, how could Concubine Xian know?He bowed his head and said, "I only met Pei Shiyuan a few times."

"That's good." Concubine Xian said, "I have a younger sister in my family who is already in the age of jade but has not yet left the cabinet. In terms of seniority, I should call you cousin."

Zhou Lang nodded and said yes, he didn't expect that Concubine Xian would marry his younger sister, but after thinking about it, Pei Shiyuan is a second-rank official and holds military power, such a person is naturally the object of concubine Xian's wooing.

Zhou Lang suddenly remembered that he and Pei Shiyuan had been drinking together in Beijing before, and he wanted to stay in the capital, while Pei Shiyuan was determined to lead the army to fight and defend Daqi.

At that time, he still laughed at Pei Shiyuan for thinking too simple, but a few years later, the person he laughed at has become a second-rank general, leading tens of thousands of people in bloody battles at the border. Although there is no great credit, he is also famous all over the world Everyone knows the general who was ordered to stop Quan Rong when he was in danger.

In the future when Quanrong is destroyed, he can go to Hanyuan Hall to be conferred and congratulated by all officials.And what about myself?He is also an unknown commander of the Forbidden Army.

Not knowing what was going on in his mind, Zhou Lang said, "Pei Shiyuan and Shen Bing have a very good relationship, and it is difficult to win them over. The general thinks that Zhang Duanran may be able to."

Concubine Xian thought for a while. She also heard that Pei Shiyuan and Shen Bing were sworn brothers, and whispered, "I heard that the two have sworn brothers. Is brotherhood so important?" After thinking for a while, she also felt a little risky, and said, "So let's try Zhang Duanran." !"

Yuan Xingye was looking at the topographic map of Youzhou on the sand table. The Dog Rong besieged city seemed menacing, but Yuan Xingye didn't pay attention to it. At that time, the residents of Heifeng City had been sent to the Central Plains by her. There is a lot of land waiting for them to reclaim.Now there are only tens of thousands of troops and a small number of residents left in Black Wind City, which is almost like an empty city.

Xia Zimo didn't bother her either, Luo Yan walked in, saluted and said, "Supervisor." Xia Zimo smiled and said, "What's the news?"

"Zhou Lang went to General Zhang's tent," Luo Yan said.Xia Zimo took care of Concubine Xian's matter, so she reported it directly to her. There are many spies around Concubine Xian during this period.

Xia Zimo smiled, and then said, "It seems that I am right, General Zhang should also step up investigation." Although he was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes.

After Concubine Xian came to Youzhou, she hardly ever went out of the prefect's mansion, hoping to confuse the audience and make Xia Zimo think that she didn't check anything, but the people under her were not idle, and almost checked Youzhou to the bottom.It's just that there is still room for Concubine Xian, so I can only keep her at this time.

Concubine Xian has sent many letters to her family in the past two weeks, and she has read them, but the letters are just homely.Xia Zimo is from everyone, she knows that many families have their own unique code words, which cannot be imitated by others.Like that letter from her father.

After thinking about it, Xia Zimo said, "Any news from the spies in Beijing?"

Luo Yan shook her head, "Not yet, if there is any movement, it will take a few days to get to Youzhou quickly." Xia Zimo nodded, and Luo Yan bowed and retreated.

Yuan Xingye didn't look at the sand table either. He sat next to Xia Zimo and took a sip from her teacup. Xia Zimo shook his head and poured himself another cup.Then he asked, "What do you think Zhang Duanran will do?"

"My fair lady, gentlemen love to be gentlemen. What's more, the Yu family is a famous family." Yuan Xingye said lightly.If Concubine Xian and Zhou Lang were here, they would probably turn pale with shock.Yuan Xingye knew the content of their conversation just now.

Xia Zimo nodded, "This is indeed a good notice. Although my family doesn't have any female relatives, there are still many girls who have not left the court in the side branches. How about—"

Yuan Xingye laughed, "What are you thinking?" Xia Zimo said helplessly, "Isn't Pei Shiyuan---" Yuan Xingye smiled even more happily, and couldn't help but put down his teacup, "Don't mess with the mandarin ducks."

Xia Zimo was puzzled, "He and Shen Bing---" Yuan Xingye's expression became a little meaningful, "Is this? I can't tell, anyway, just wait and see what happens. Marrying a daughter means too much solicitation."

Xia Zimo was silent, and Yuan Xingye didn't say anything else. She just let nature take its course. She paid much more attention to Pei Shiyuan than Zhang Duanran. Will not embarrass him.

However, although Xia Zimo didn't pay Pei Shiyuan's attention anymore, he still felt that this method was good. The daughters of these big families seldom have marriages that they can decide on their own. They always choose a helpful family to marry when they reach the age of leaving the cabinet.In short, it is a rare scene of marriage.

She hadn't thought of this idea before, and she always felt that it's better to be happy with each other when it comes to feelings.

"What are you thinking?" Yuan Xingye asked.Xia Zimo frowned, "How many people do you think the court can win over?"

Yuan Xingye understood what she meant, thought for a while and said slowly, "Although the Xia family is a famous family, they are not from the same family after all. It is probably impossible for those famous families to get married. What does a married daughter-in-law do?"

"That's true, but what about some small officials?" Xia Zimo smirked, and took out a notebook from his pocket, which contained a list of all the officials in the capital and some basic information.

Xia Zimo said, "I happened to like a few people. I will write a letter in a while." Naturally, she was not writing to Xia Juzheng, but to her brother Xia Ziyun.Yuan Xingye shook his head.

Neither of them said anything, but strangely, they both knew what the other wanted to do?Although they didn't say it clearly, they worked hard together for that goal.

In the early morning of the second day, Yuan Xingye got up early and went to the city gate to check. The Quanrong side had not attacked the city, so Yuan Xingye nodded to Zang Qidao, "Put out the card for avoiding battle."

Ye Lihe was standing in front of the camp at this time, looking at Youzhou City shakingly, defending the city with 36 people and attacking the city with [-] people.This is obviously an impossible battle, but he has to fight it. If Yuan Xingye completes the correction and re-sieges Black Wind City, then it will be a man-made knife and a fish-meat.

Ye Lihe smiled wryly. In the past, in wars, if he was defeated, it would be a big deal to become a vassal, and Da Qi would generally accept it.After all, Quanrong Country is small and mostly mountainous, which is much worse than the splendid rivers and mountains of Daqi. Many emperors of Daqi didn't want to fight, so they accepted the peace.

Only this time, he had to fight.Because Yuan Xingye refused to accept the peace proposal, and blocked all the way to Chang'an.

"Khan." The military division appeared behind him, and Ye Lihe didn't turn his head back. "Military division, do you think the dog army will perish." The military division was silent, and he had no choice in this situation.We can only take one step at a time.

Ye Lihe smiled wryly, and he didn't understand why the situation was so good and how it came to be like this.Could it be that Quanrong's invincibility before was just because he didn't meet an opponent?
