Empress and Empress

Shen Bing took the lead and rushed to the front. He only held a long sword, followed by the well-equipped black-clothed army. Looking from the city wall, the black-clothed army headed by Shen Bing stabbed into the dog's army like a sharp sword. In the army formation.Shen Bing kept waving the long sword, mercilessly harvesting the lives in front of him.

The silver-white armor was stained with blood, like a killing god. Suddenly, the long sword in his hand stopped, and Ye Lihe's long spear appeared in front of him.

Ye Lihe was the only one who could fight Shen Bing in the dog army. The two did not pause at all, waving their weapons hoping to repel each other.But after coming and going, the offensive of the black army stopped suddenly. The military division watched the battle from a distance and made a gesture to the people below.

Then the people around kept waving military flags, and the dog army quickly surrounded the black army.Pei Shiyuan led the cavalry to block Quan Rong's encirclement, and met with Ye Liji, the leader of the army.

Ye Lihe's purpose was very simple. He wanted to entrust Yuan Xingye in Youzhou City. When the generals and soldiers of Daqi couldn't bear the severe cold in the north in winter, he could slowly find a way.

Yuan Xingye looked at Ye Lihe who was fighting under the city. Ye Lihe used to be like a sword, showing his sharpness. Anyone could see his ambition and vitality.Today's Ye Lihe has become more settled, with a bit of hostility removed from his body, and a bit more calm.

But more is indeed exhaustion.

Yuan Xingye smiled, "Zhao Guang, take people out of the city and besiege Ye Lihe together."

"Yes." Zhao Guang had been gearing up for a long time, and now he was naturally happy. He heard Yuan Xingye's order and left with his lieutenant general.

Ye Lihe heard the sound of horns from Youzhou City, and then the gate of Youzhou City opened again, and a general in indigo armor galloped out, followed by countless soldiers, and an indigo banner that read With a big "Zhao" character.

"Brothers, fight with me!" Zhao Guang roared angrily.Then naturally, he rushed out in the first place.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Ye Li's eyes, he only brought 8 people with him, and now he stayed in the barracks for a share, and only less than 6 people fought against him.Originally, Shen Bing and Pei Shiyuan only had 7 people, but now that Zhao Guang came, he was in a doomed situation.

The military division had someone blow the horn to retreat, and Ye Li said angrily, "Retreat."

As soon as Zhao Guang led the people to meet the dog army, the opponent withdrew. He wanted to chase after him, but the horn of retreat also sounded on the city wall.Zhao Guang had no choice but to take people into the city.

"His grandma's, Ye Lihe, is this a joke? I haven't beaten him yet." Zhao Guang said angrily.As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yuan Xingye coming down from the city wall. Yuan Xingye glanced at him indifferently. Zhao Guang immediately fell silent, handed over the horse to the deputy general, and followed Yuan Xingye to the central army tent.

Pei Shiyuan rode his horse and came to Shen Bing. Shen Bing was not injured, but was a little out of strength, his eyes were still cold, and there were a lot of bloodstains on his face, but the bloodstains not only did not make him lose color, but also looked a little more evil.Seeing Pei Shiyuan, his eyes softened a little.

"Brother, are you okay?" He took off his helmet and asked.Shen Bing shook his head and put away his long sword, "I'm fine." He looked around at the black-clothed army. Although the black-clothed army was brave and Yuan Xingye gave them the best equipment, many people died after the first battle.

The other soldiers in black silently put away the capes, bows and arrows of their dead companions, and then burned the bodies.

"Marshal should wait for us." Pei Shiyuan was afraid that he would be sad.Shen Bing nodded, and the two rode into Youzhou City.

This battle lasted for two hours, Concubine Xian got the news early, looked around for Zhou Lang but did not find him, only saw Yan Fei patrolling with the forbidden army.Then he took Yan Fei to the city wall.

Concubine Xian was somewhat curious about the war, and also wanted to see if she could get any useful information.The most important thing is to see if Cheng Jing is really by the side of the dog Rong army division as Yuan Xingye said.

So an hour ago, Concubine Xian came to the city wall.She was an imperial envoy, so he didn't dare to stop her.When they got on the city wall, they saw Yuan Xingye standing on the city wall in military uniform, looking down.Xia Zimo was not there.

Several generals stood behind Yuan Xingye with respectful expressions.Looking at Yuan Xingye, a trace of jealousy flashed in Concubine Xian's heart.Then walked over.Stand beside Yuan Xingye.

After watching for a while, Concubine Xian felt that she couldn't bear it.Blood splattered, limbs flew, and people's screams kept coming into her ears.The blood flowed into the ground, and the owner of the blood was lying there, and people kept stepping on him.It seems that what is under the feet is not a human body, but sand.

She just felt something churning in her stomach, and several of the maids beside her couldn't help throwing up.Concubine Xian kept her identity and hurried to the back, enduring the desire to escape from here.

Yuan Xingye noticed Concubine Xian, but she didn't pay attention.People who come to the battlefield for the first time are like this, and some veterans will wake up in the middle of the night because of nightmares.

It was also the first time Yan Fei saw this scene. Although his face was pale, he still stood here without moving.He also dreamed of being able to fight in the battlefield, but he was not born to learn martial arts since he was a child, so he turned to learning and passed the palace examination to enter the military department.

Seeing that no one paid attention to her, Concubine Xian asked her maid to help her to leave.When he left, his face was pale and he was sweating coldly, as if something serious had happened.Yan Fei stayed behind on the pretext of checking the news.

After the horn for retreat sounded, Yan Fei followed Yuan Xingye and the others down the city wall. When they went down, they heard someone yelling, and then saw Zhao Guang.

He had some impressions of this general, his face was rough, and he looked like a reckless man.But unexpectedly, with Yuan Xingye's look in his eyes, Zhao Guang would be silent.Then, he saw two generals coming in on horseback, a silver-white armor covered with blood, and a chill all over his body, as if he was Shura who climbed up from hell.

One is white armor, the helmet has been taken off, holding a spear in his hand, and talking to Shura beside him with his head tilted.There was a touch of gentleness in his face.

Watching them leave, Yan Fei was suddenly envious.

When Concubine Xian returned to the prefect's mansion, she felt that she was seriously ill. She was so frightened that the maid repeatedly called for the accompanying imperial doctor, who prescribed some tranquilizing medicine.Concubine Xian fell asleep after drinking a little.

When she woke up, she was frightened awake by the dream, Concubine Xian wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Although she had seen life and death in the harem, she still couldn't accept facing death like this. Looking at the sky, it was already night, so she asked the night watch maid to bring a glass of warm water to drink.Only then did I feel better.

"Did Zhou Lang find it?" Concubine Xian asked.

The maid next to her was Cui'er, and Cui'er said, "Commander Zhou came twice when the empress was resting."

"Send him here." Concubine Xian said, getting up and putting on her coat.After a while, Zhou Lang waited outside the door, summoned him into the outer hall, and saw Concubine Xian sitting upright with a pale face.

"I'll pay my respects to my empress, I'm going to drink too much, please punish me." Zhou Lang said.Concubine Xian really wanted to punish him, but at this time she had to rely on Zhou Lang, so she said, "General Zhou has been guarding my palace, this time I won't be held accountable, I'm not an example."

"Yes, thank you, ma'am." Zhou Lang arrived. "Your Majesty, Yuan Xingye has punished Zhang Duanran thirty times."

Concubine Xian was a little pleasantly surprised, "It's so good. You bring medicine to visit Zhang Duanran tonight." Concubine Xian said. "Just say that my family is very satisfied with General Zhang, and my sister also admires him very much."

When Zhou Lang came out, Yan Fei was waiting outside. Seeing Zhou Lang, he hurried forward a few steps, "Brother Zhou, my mother blamed you. It's all because I want to drag you to drink." Zhou Lang smiled and said, "Brother Yan is serious. Thanks to Brother Yan for telling me about General Zhang.”

A cold light flashed in Yan Fei's eyes, and then he smiled and said, "That's good. General Zhang was also implicated by my younger brother, and I hope Brother Zhou will plead guilty on his behalf." I don't know if it will go along with the flow and have a falling out with Yuan Xingye.

What's more, Zhang Duanran's background is not high, so the children of the aristocratic family can't ask for it. How many people can let go of such an opportunity?Yan Fei sneered, if there was no such environment now, he would also be envious of Zhang Duanran's good luck.It's just that this good luck might become a guillotine.

Zhang Duanran was resting among his battalion commander, when the door curtain was raised, Pei Shiyuan walked in.Before Pei Shiyuan came, there were only tens of thousands of guards in Youzhou, and Zhang Duanran was the guard at that time.Among all the generals except Zhang Duanran's lieutenant general, they have had the longest contact.

Seeing Zhang Duanran lying on his stomach, Pei Shiyuan smiled and said, "Do you feel better? The marshal said that you can rest for two days." They are warriors. Although it is painful for them to be thirty, it is not unbearable, and neither is Pei Shiyuan. care.

Zhang Duanran ignored it, Pei Shiyuan was also a smart person, and soon discovered that something was wrong with Zhang Duanran.He took a few steps forward and sat down on a chair beside him.

"Why are you here?" Zhang Duanran asked.Pei Shiyuan said, "Shall I come and see you?"

"You didn't come with Shen Bing, haven't you been inseparable recently?" Zhang Duanran said, although his tone was normal, Pei Shiyuan could still hear the ridicule.He frowned, and then sighed, "It's reasonable for the marshal to punish you if you drink too much."

Zhang Duanran didn't speak. Yuan Xingye divided his men into four armies. He was also one of the four generals. It stands to reason that he shouldn't have any dissatisfaction with Yuan Xingye.

But among the four, Zhao Guang and Zang Qi are Yuan Xingye's direct descendants, and Pei Shiyuan and Shen Bing are very close.Only him --- when Xia Zimo was taken away, he was worried about Youzhou and the Northern Army.but?After Yuan Xingye left, he handed over the army to Luoyan.

And when Luoyan leaves the city, hand it over to Zangqi.Pei Shiyuan and Shen Bing followed Yuan Xingye to rescue people. Everyone had something to do, but he didn't.He was surprised when Concubine Xian said she wanted Xu Yi's younger sister.Because no matter who you choose, it is impossible to choose yourself, but you choose yourself.

Maybe it's not that I can't do it---it's just that Yuan Xingye and the others don't like themselves.Zhang Duanran thought to himself.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Pei Shiyuan remained silent for a long time, and finally said, "Heal your wounds well, and I'll come see you tomorrow." Pei Shiyuan walked out. At this moment, Zhang Duanran suddenly said, "Do you really not care? A few days ago, Yuan Xingye asked You accompanied Zhou Lang, and your military power was easily lifted. Are you afraid of another time?"

Pei Shiyuan said lightly, "You know that military power doesn't matter to me at all. It's just that Concubine Xian wanted to win you over. Otherwise, why would you say such things at this time. The big battle is coming, so don't think about it. After Quan Rong is destroyed, you can go back naturally Great marriage."

Zhang Duanran also understood in his heart that "what Concubine Xian has done will not affect the attack on Quan Rong."

Pei Shiyuan sighed inwardly, and left without looking back.Walking out of Zhang Duanran's military tent, he saw Shen Bing standing not far away. At this time, there was a rare light rain in Youzhou. Shen Bing stood facing the wind in white clothes, holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand.Seeing Pei Shiyuan walking over quickly.

"Today there is a temple fair in Youzhou, and there is also a night market at night. Do you want to go and see it?" Shen Bingwen asked.Pei Shiyuan nodded, and the coldness just now was dispelled.Walking side by side with Shen Bing.

Neither of them spoke, but Pei Shiyuan felt more comfortable than the silence of Battalion Commander Zhang Duanran just now. "He should vote for Concubine Xian. The matter of the prisoner being captured---"

Shen Bing turned to look at him, "The marshal will take care of it."

"Duanran should not have said it yet. If Concubine Xian finds out, the situation of the supervising army will be in danger." As long as everyone knows it, Xia Zimo can only prove his innocence by dying for the sake of the Xia family and the royal family.

Shen Bing said, "Marshal has her considerations, maybe this is the strategy she set for Concubine Xian." Pei Shiyuan couldn't help but said, "Why do you trust Marshal so much?" He knew Shen Bing, and Shen Bing had his own introduction to the art of war, It can be said that he is a handsome talent, but he is willing to resign.

Shen Bing suddenly covered his mouth and smiled, "Are you jealous?" When Shen Bing smiled, all the coldness in Shen Bing's body receded, and his eyebrows became more and more elegant, Pei Shiyuan was stunned.

The two walked out of the barracks and met Zhou Lang and Yan Fei head-on. "Brother Pei." Zhou Lang said.

Pei Shiyuan knew that the two came to look for Zhang Duanran, and also knew that they belonged to Concubine Xian, so he was unhappy and nodded without answering.Yan Fei smiled and said, "I have admired the reputation of General Pei and General Shen for a long time, and I am lucky to meet you today." He was surprised, the two of them looked nothing like the generals on the battlefield at this moment.

Especially Shen Bing, when he was wearing casual clothes, he looked like a rich man traveling around.
