Mrs. Mo said he would not agree
Chapter 110
Whether Emperor Zhengshi was crazy or not is still unclear.
But Mo Jingchun was really confused by His Majesty's words, and subconsciously took a step back.
Behind him was the screen of sea waves. After his back was pressed against the cold screen, Mo Jingchun's voice had regained his composure, and he said calmly: "Your Majesty, do you think that Tao Niang wants Chen Wenxiu and Chen Wenxiu to be together?" Together?"
He restrained himself from calling Chen Wenxiu's name directly to avoid the emperor's vigilance. On the other hand, combined with Chen Wenxiu's haste last night, Tao Niang took the initiative to bring up the matter of remarriage, and His Majesty came out of Beijing rashly this day. Unrestrained killing intent... Based on the combination of these points, Mo Jingchun came to such a conclusion.
But when he guessed this point, Mo Jingchun felt that this matter was ridiculous.
Tao Niang will not be limited by the idea of being in the same family, but her consideration of Chen Wenxiu cannot be concluded in a day, at most she is stimulated by Chen Wenxiu, and she has such a small idea.
But it's just an idea, and it may not come true.
As for Chen Wenxiu, not to mention that she was an ambitious girl, just looking at her Congxin in front of the emperor before, she could tell that Chen Wenxiu would never let herself fall into the trap again.
She is not stupid, at least from several encounters, it can be seen that the emperor attaches great importance to Mo Jingchun.
Chen Wenxiu didn't dare.
This one dare not, and the other is random. You can deduce it clearly just by thinking about it.This may be the reason why Emperor Zhengshi was furious, but did not take any real action.
"It's not a 'thinking'," Zhengshi Emperor and Mo Jingchun were only a fist apart, "it's a fact."
Mo Jingchun retorted, "Tao Niang at most has such thoughts, but after thinking about it for a long time, she will definitely consider her family background and the wishes of the minister. It is even more impossible for Chen Wenxiu to be tempted by the minister, whether it is the two of them Who among people should be innocent.
"Why should His Majesty be angry about this?"
Emperor Zhengshi thoughtfully played with the little puppet in his hand, and Mo Jingchun could feel the feeling of being pinched all over his body again.His majesty's strength is not heavy, but it's a bit like teasing and harassing, so that people don't feel angry, but they also feel a little helpless.
"The widow didn't kill them, did he?"
However, what he said didn't seem like the calmness he showed.
"Master, do you want to defend them?"
Mo Jingchun laughed angrily, "This is not an excuse, it's the truth." He didn't even try to hide Tao Niang's thoughts just now.
According to Mo Jingchun's guess, it does exist.
Emperor Zhengshi's eyes were bright, and he looked a little frightening and unnaturally crazy.He moved closer, the tip of his nose moved slightly, as if he was sniffing Mo Jingchun's body.At such a close distance, the movements of each other are like white cranes crossing their necks, or tigers and beasts obsessed with each other. In the sticky contact, the tall shadow almost enveloped Mo Jingchun.
Mo Jingchun hadn't felt such condescending coercion from Emperor Zhengshi for a long time.
He raised his neck unconsciously, revealing his fair and delicate skin.
Emperor Zhengshi's breath rushed over, making Mo Jingchun uncontrollably tremble a few times, like a frightened bird.
Emperor Zhengshi seemed to be obsessed with the breath of Mo Jingchun's neck, the smell that belonged to the master was wrapped in Yunluoxiang, and under the warm body temperature, the smell became more thick and warm.
He subconsciously wanted to catch the smelly gas, and subconsciously took a deep breath.
It took a long time for Emperor Zhengshi to stand up straight again, and looked at Mo Jingchun carefully, with a terrifying sense of joy in his eyes, as if he was weighing what to say.
How to divide and how to eat is the ultimate way.
After all, the cakes brought back were originally meant to be eaten.
Mo Jingchun's scalp was numb, he hadn't felt such a trembling for a long time.
The feeling of danger rushes from the limbs to the apex of the heart, silent screams spread throughout the body, and there is a desire to move and collapse on the heels.
If Mo Jingchun hadn't forcibly suppressed those thoughts, maybe in the next moment, Mo Jingchun would turn around and run away without hesitation.
He licked his mouth stiffly, "Your Majesty?"
Emperor Zhengshi hadn't spoken for a while.
He just looked at Mo Jingchun carefully and seriously, the black eyes were full of hot light, almost scalding to the point where the scalding temperature was unbearable, like a burning flame .
Emperor Zhengshi said stickily: "Whether you justify it or not, it all shows one thing. The master and Sui Zhizhen don't know how many people care about them."
Mo Jingchun was angry and funny, what with Sui Zhizhen?
And who will miss him?
"Your Majesty, you think highly of me, no one would..."
Mo Jingchun was trying to convince Emperor Zhengshi with the facts, but he saw him staring at him with particularly weird eyes that sent chills down the spine, the kind of cut inch by inch, as if to peel people apart, so naked and terrifying The sight made Mo Jingchun's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched into a fist, like an unconscious move.
Emperor Zhengshi grinned slowly, like a beast about to prey, "No?"
Without hesitation, he dropped the little doll into his mouth and swallowed it whole.
Even Mo Jingchun only had time to reach out his hand, as if to stop it, but it was too late, he just let out an extremely miserable scream from his throat, and fell to the ground, unable to stop that brutal, devastating, An almost insane touch.
Except for the scream at the very beginning, the limp figure made no more sound.
When Emperor Zhengshi lowered his body and hugged the poor Mo Jingchun who shrunk into a ball, he realized that the master was clenching his fingers into fists and then covering his mouth.
Under that hasty movement, this unusually rude behavior blocked the whimpering sound.
Only dull, heavy breathing remained.
Emperor Zhengshi wrapped Mo Jingchun in a quilt, and after making sure that there was no trace left, he carried Mo Jingchun under the wrap and went out.
As he walked, his tongue moved, as if turned over by something in his mouth.
The thing in the bedding squirmed twice, like some kind of uncontrollable bouncing reflex.
The action of Emperor Zhengshi alarmed the people who were already in the courtyard, but the people in the study room in the outer courtyard were basically dismissed by Mohen and Wei Yi, and the rest were only the secret guards hiding in the dark and the guards outside the door. two people.After they heard the movement, they hurried over from the door, but they only saw Emperor Zhengshi alone.
And the big thing in his arms... It looks like a person.
Mo Hen's face changed slightly, he just felt that this behavior was crazy and shameful, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Wei Yi's face was already pale, and the sweat couldn't stop rolling down from his forehead. He didn't know how he made himself so terrified in such a short period of time.He stretched out his hand to stop Mohen, and said humbly: "Your Majesty, this is the Mo Mansion. I certainly don't want to be bumped into by others. Please give me a little time to clean up the people on the way, so as not to Hit."
Emperor Zhengshi looked a little weird, he didn't know if he was eating something in his mouth, he was slowly chewing...or licking, no one could tell the difference just from a rough glance.
His Majesty nodded slowly and did not speak.
Wei Yi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, dragged Mo Hen forcefully to retreat, and then walked out with big strides, while asking people to stop everyone on the only way to go out, and he wanted to rush to the palace, The people there are also temporarily transferred.After all, it was good for them to watch Emperor Zhengshi come in, but if they watched His Majesty go out with that ball of things in his arms, it would be easy for rumors to spread.
Originally, this matter should be done in two ways by him and Mohenbing.
But looking at Mohen's appearance, Wei Yi might as well carry him with him, lest he get agitated and run to His Majesty to die.
Mohen said hurriedly: "Wei Yi! You just let His Majesty take Lang Jun away like this?"
Wei Yi's footsteps were fast, and he still had the energy to cast a sideways glance at Mohen, and said with a sneer, "Otherwise? Are you trying to rush to His Majesty to stop him? Then when Lang Jun comes back to his senses, he will find that you are already dead." Already!"
Mohen scratched his neck, "That's different. So, such a move, it's really..."
Wei Yi sighed, shook his head and said, "According to Lang Jun's strength, he may not be able to defeat His Majesty, but if he wants to fight for a period of time, let us know by sending out some movement, perhaps to summon the hidden guards." Going in, that's all possible. However, from just now, can you feel any trace? Even His Majesty swaggered out, but you didn't see Langjun make a sound, maybe, this should be the... hobby of the two of them?" Said When the last word was uttered, Wei Yi's face couldn't help but twisted a bit.
It's fine for others, but Mr. Wang?
That really doesn't fit.
But apart from this speculation, Wei Yi really doesn't know why the gentleman keeps silent?
Mo Hen was reluctantly persuaded by Wei Yi, and erased the memory of this matter from his mind.
After watching the strange group of carriages and horses leave, Wei Yi took a deep breath and collapsed in the dark room, almost kneeling down.Mohen held him by the arm, pressed more than half of Wei Yi's weight on his shoulders, and said strangely: "Are you feeling unwell?" Why did your feet suddenly go limp?
Wei Yi breathed heavily, waved his hands and said, "No, it's not."
He's just, scared.
When Emperor Zhengshi passed by him and strode into the carriage, Wei Yi could only feel the thick and dirty darkness.His throat seemed to be choked violently, and he was hung up. The terrifying aura made him tremble, and he almost made a big fool of himself.
It wasn't until the carriage went away, until those silent people followed up, that he felt weak all over and almost fell down.
Mo Hen frowned and looked at Wei Yi. They had been together for several years, and they knew each other's characters long ago.If Wei Yi wasn't sick, then why... His eyes fell on the place where he could no longer see the chariots and horses, he gradually became serious, and he grabbed Wei Yi's shoulder suddenly, "You, you noticed it , that one..." His voice was fast and anxious, as if he remembered something terrible.
Wei Yi nodded softly, and said silently, "Dangerous."
There is only the danger of making his scalp tingle and wanting to retch.
Mohen was so angry that he grabbed his hair. If Wei Yi was not still pressing on him, he would have been pacing back and forth anxiously, "Since it is so dangerous, how can you just watch Langjun go..."
The word "send to death" was firmly pressed on the root of Mohen's tongue, not daring to spit it out.
Wei Yi smiled wryly and said, "Which time did you not rely on the Lord to calm down?"
He let out a breath, and had another guess in his mind, but looking at Mohen, he didn't say it, but shook his head and said: "Don't think too much, what you and I should worry about is my own life instead. And Lang Jun... How could Your Majesty hurt Lang Jun?" He slowly stood up straight, "But Lang Jun may not be able to come back in time tonight, when the time comes, Da Furen must have a suitable reason."
Mohen glanced at Wei Yi silently, but couldn't help but want to curse.
At this moment, at the end of the street, there was an old man and a young man walking unhurriedly.As he got closer, he could tell that the young man following behind was carrying a medicine box in his hand. It was the medicine boy.
This is Dr. Qin and his drug boy from Ren Shan Tang.
Mohen and Wei Yi, who were going back to the mansion, did not rush back when they saw Dr. Qin, but stood there waiting for them to come.
"Doctor Qin, why are you here?"
Doctor Qin said with a smile: "Ma'am asked me to come over and show the body to the people in the house, in case it's cold and cold, and I don't notice it in time because I have a hot head and aching feet."
Wei Yi nodded in his heart, this feeling is like asking for the peace pulse in the palace, more like preventing it in advance, rather than seeing a doctor after getting sick.
The two happened to be in the locker room, so they took the place of the doorman, made it easier for Dr. Qin, and brought him in.It's just that on the way, I told him that Mo Shangshu, who lives in the family, happened to be away on business.
Doctor Qin didn't care too much, and said with a smile that he would do it next time when he was free.
When Dr. Qin was sent to the main courtyard, Mo Hen stopped, stood there silent for a moment, wiped his face, and hurried to the direction of the gate just now.
In addition to what Mo Jingchun had ordered earlier, Mohen still had one more thing to do.
...
"Your Majesty went to see Mo Jingchun again?"
It was already half afternoon when Zheng Tianhe received the news.Those who are watching the whereabouts may not dare to get too close, nor dare to confront the Mo family and His Majesty unscrupulously.What they can do is to follow the traces left behind step by step, and then dig out the results they want.
"Yes, but the carriage is not going to the palace, but to the east of the city." The man said in a low voice, "However, it is not certain whether Mo Jingchun is in the carriage, and after going to the east of the city, Our people don’t dare to follow too closely for fear of being discovered, so we only know roughly which neighborhoods we might be in.”
Zheng Tianhe shook his head, "There is no need to follow, be careful."
He ordered people to keep an eye on Mo's family, not to send them all to be buried with him.It is enough to only need these general information, so as not to be followed by Emperor Zhengshi, but to be uprooted instead.
He was silent for a moment, got up and went to the desk, wrote a few numbers on it with a pen, and then called the housekeeper, "Send this letter to Jiao's house."
The Jiao family, not the Jiao family.
The butler bowed and walked out silently.
After watching him leave, Zheng Tianhe paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and occasionally he could hear him coughing lightly.In the evening, a low-key and simple carriage stopped outside Zheng's residence. Jiao Lian'an got out of the carriage slowly and was welcomed in by the steward who had been waiting for a long time.
When Jiao Lian'an arrived at the Zheng residence, Zheng Yunxiu also received the news.
She had already asked the maid beside her to find a few young maids, and went to the gatehouse and the Hanging Flower Gate to keep an eye on them. If there was any news, she would report it directly.
Before Zheng Tianhe publicly expressed his attitude, Zheng Yunxiu could still instruct the people around him.
After receiving the news that someone came to see her father, Zheng Yunxiu's face changed slightly, and she sat in front of the vanity mirror, looking at herself indistinctly inside.Although she still had that pretty face, she was worried all the time.
Vaguely, she seemed to see Kang Yujia's blue and white face.
Zheng Yunxiu couldn't help shivering every time he thought of her swollen body after swallowing too much water.
"Wu Niang, why don't you eat something?"
The maid next to her persuaded, Zheng Yunxiu couldn't eat for several days, and it was even more obvious today, she refused to even eat.
Zheng Yunxiu covered her face impatiently, to block the depression.
She doesn't want to go to the family temple.
The horror of the family temple, Zheng Yunxiu has been very aware of it. Going there is not only poverty and poverty, but also endures endless humiliation. The Wuxin master who is in charge of the family temple happens to be a cruel monk and nun. The house girl died under her hands.
The most frightening thing is that this is the tacit consent of the Zheng family.
In other words, this was the purpose of the Zheng family sending people there.
Only the daughter of the Zheng family who made a mistake, had an accident, and was abandoned to go home, would suffer this kind of ordeal.As for her words... Zheng Yunxiu believed that her father would never allow herself to be tainted with such a stigma.Therefore, he will definitely not declare his crime on the surface, but will only quietly send her to the family temple after everything is settled, and then explain in Zheng's house that she suddenly fell ill and died suddenly, or other words...
Zheng Yunxiu's face was wrinkled into a ball, and she sat up straight suddenly.
An impossible idea flashed in her mind, she suddenly jumped up from the desk, and paced back and forth.Zheng Yunxiu suddenly remembered the reason why she went to Jiao's before, that "fundraiser", or something... that woman, what's her name?
Zheng Yunxiu thought for a long time, then sat down suddenly, took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, then hurriedly wrote a letter, and then asked the most trusted maid to take it out.
A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Tianhe, who was seeing off the visitor, tilted his head, "Let her go."
He casually covers the blanket over his lap.
...
Outside Zheng's house, the low-key carriage when it came, and the plain carriage when it left, moved gently.
It was Jiao Lian'an who was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed and resting his mind.
Jiao Lian'an and Zheng Tianhe were good friends when they were young.
At that time, although making friends also cared about their backgrounds, but only Jiao Lian'an and the others would not ignore the sick and weak Zheng Tianhe, no one could have imagined that in the end it was Zheng Tianhe who took control of the Zheng family.However, this friendship has continued until now, even though the two have gradually drifted apart because of their different ideas, they seldom contact each other.
But Zheng Tianhe believes that as long as he writes, there is still an [-]% chance that Jiao Lian'an will come.
Looking at it now, Jiao Lian'an is indeed here.
Jiao Lian'an, who was sitting in the carriage, sighed deeply, and opened his eyes again.
His originally dark sideburns had turned gray, and he looked completely different from the energetic one a year ago. Jiao Lian'an looked a little old-fashioned now, as if his energy had been swallowed by something, and even his movements were a little sluggish.
Losing Jiao Mingxiang and Jiao Shicong one after another, such a blow made Jiao Lian'an feel depressed, and it was difficult to get out.
It was precisely because the Jiao family was involved, so when Jiao Lianan found out that the Zheng family was among those who were beheaded, he knew that the Zheng family also had a share.
If it wasn't for His Majesty's other plans, it might not be the current situation.
Therefore, even though Jiao Lian'an came to Zheng's house in person, he pretended to ignore Zheng Tianhe's hints.
In a way, this is also a reaction.
Jiao Lian'an sighed, no matter who is sitting on the throne, as long as he is the emperor, as long as he does not bring the crisis of overthrowing the country, to him, it doesn't matter who is sitting.
Naturally, Jiao Lian'an was unwilling to cause more killings.
However, he knew that Zheng Tianhe had no such plan.
One failure is enough to deter them.
In a short period of time, five years or ten years, they will definitely not have such thoughts again.
But what Zheng Tianhe wants to do right now?
Jiao Lian'an was a little worried. It seemed that he had to keep an eye on the Zheng family.
...
"Boom--"
The cannonballs were raging all over the sky. Just two days after the new year, King Mingchun rushed like crazy for a day, and didn't come to a halt until that night.
There are scorched black marks on the outside of the city wall, and there are some leaks everywhere, but the city wall still stands firm and has not fallen down due to the bombardment of the past few days.
Listening to the number of casualties, Mo Guangsheng exhaled slowly and smiled wryly.
"Fortunately, as expected."
The lieutenant general sat under him and said in a low voice: "General, these days, the rebels have been stimulated and bombed continuously. This doesn't seem to be their style."
King Mingchun was very cautious.
For them, weapons like the Fortress are definitely not weapons that can be seen everywhere. They used them with restrictions before, but in the past few days, they have been swaying like they don’t want money, and there is a vicious momentum. It made them somewhat confused.
Under the attack of the rebel artillery, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court were also seriously damaged.
But this is a siege battle after all, and the defenders still have some weak advantages.
Mo Guangsheng stroked the beard on his chin. When he was marching, he didn't care about these miscellaneous things at all. Now the beard has become a big beard, a little frizzy.
"Remember? The address someone sent you before."
Mo Guangsheng said suddenly, making the other officers and lieutenants a little confused. After a while, an aide recalled the incident and said loudly, "It's the place where the rebels smelt their weapons!"
"Yes, we have already grasped the relevant information, but the rebels here are dragging our footsteps, making it impossible for our army to attack in time, but we are unable to move, which is equivalent to the main force of the rebels, and we are also delayed Here. Isn’t this another level of stalemate?” Mo Guangsheng shook his head and said, “In the past few days, the successive attacks of the rebels are not right, I guess they are going to run away.”
"run?"
An aide said aloud: "The general's meaning... Could it be that the rebels plan to withdraw their forces and maintain this stalemate for the time being?"
The lieutenant frowned, with a knife still on his knee, "Could it be that someone surrounded their rear, and the rebels wanted to retreat in time to protect their smelting site, and then use this opportunity to get rid of the stalemate with the imperial army? Rest for a while..."
The staff member sitting closest to Mo Guangsheng said in a deep voice: "We have the news that was sent to the general at the beginning, and the court will naturally have it. When the general can't spare manpower to deal with it, there will be someone who comes after him. The army's recent actions are indeed wrong, if you look at it zoomed in, it may be that before we left, we were maimed and wounded, making us lose the strength to catch up... In this way, they couldn't fulfill their wish."
Mo Guangsheng snorted coldly, "So what? According to our previous inference, their artillery fire should be silenced in three days at most. If the rebels take advantage of this opportunity to retreat, let's call in a team of surprise soldiers to chase after them." go up."
One of the staff said helplessly: "General, you have forgotten the problem of food and grass."
Mo Guangsheng shook his head with a smile, "Just doing a detailed investigation, the speed of their army may not be as fast as ours. If there is a lot to do, then send people back." According to his meaning, it is to go into battle lightly and only do spying. Do not engage in combat.
"What if they only withdraw half?" The lieutenant frowned, "That may not be obvious."
Mo Guangsheng patted the lieutenant's shoulder with his bear paw, and said amusedly, "What's wrong? We've been staring at them for so long, can't we even see their suspicious formation?"
Another staff member shook his head, "General, what if they don't leave after three days?"
Mo Guangsheng showed a strange smile, "Then it's their turn to be unlucky. According to the news I received, our reinforcements will arrive in three or four days."
All the soldiers were stunned, with smiles unconsciously showing on their faces.
After the meeting was over, Mo Guangsheng hurried back to his place of residence, swallowed the cold rice in two or three bites, and then walked out with the map in his hands.
enemy camp.
King Mingchun sat at the top, and on the left and right were familiar confidantes.
However, Xu Liu was gone.
In an enemy attack, in order to save King Mingchun, he blocked an arrow himself and was killed on the spot.
Now the armor on King Mingchun's body is bathed in blood, which is enough to show that they fought fiercely, but this has improved in the last half month.
After King Mingchun ordered not to be stingy with artillery fire, the successive bombings almost flattened the entire city.Although most of the cannonballs fell on the city wall, a few of them fell into the city. The sound and movement of the explosion were enough to show the power.
Judging from the fact that the number of people rotating on the city wall has decreased in the past few days, this has indeed dealt a certain blow to the soldiers and horses in the city.
such a pity.Yang Tianhe sighed in his heart, if they could produce more artillery fire in another one or two years, they would not have to be limited by the shortage of production, and they would be able to wage war on a large scale.
What the little princess said was good.
"Build walls high, accumulate food widely, and become king slowly."
Sometimes, the little princess can always say something very reasonable.
It's a pity, it's a pity for them to raise troops in such a hurry.
Although they were indeed able to suppress Mo Guangsheng with artillery fire, he was extremely talented in command. When he was at a disadvantage, he was able to drag their main force to death here firmly, so that King Mingchun could not split his mind to deal with it. somewhere else.
Now the territory they have laid down can only be barely maintained, but it cannot be operated by itself.
After what happened to the Heng family before, the aristocratic families on the land they laid down, no matter how big or small, would rather take refuge in the imperial court or take the risk of crossing south than stay.
And another big thing...
It was the matter that made King Mingchun extremely anxious these few days.
Something happened to his rear.
The most recent information sent was very clear. It seemed that the probing enemies were faintly detected around the "hometown", but they were very cunning and cunning, leaving no trace.Of course, the "hometown" side also said that it may be too sensitive, which is why the illusion occurred.
But King Mingchun felt that this would not be an illusion.
If it was an illusion, they wouldn't have written such a letter again.
At least in the eyes of the person in charge of the "hometown", the danger has far exceeded expectations, and he has to report back to him.
After hesitating for half a day, King Mingchun made up his mind to withdraw his troops.
The Mingchun army planned to retreat, stick to the ground that had already been conquered, temporarily recuperate, and rush back to the rear at the same time, so as not to catch fire in the rear and make it difficult to return to the reinforcements.
"My lord, if you give me another five days, I might be able to capture this city."
On the right side of Cheng Feng, there was an unusually sturdy and tall man kneeling on the cushion, frowning and talking.
King Mingchun glanced at him, said with a faint smile: "General Ma, time is the most important thing. I think you can see clearly which is more important."
Five days?
This cannon fire will last for at most three more days.
Yang Tianhe said: "My lord, many aristocratic families are going south now, and they probably won't come back in a short time. The population of many towns has been lost, and the future harvest may not be good." Although the territory has expanded, if there is no If people farm, those fields are nothing but waste.
Mingchun Wang Hun said indifferently: "When we go back, we will plunder some refugees and force them to go back. Now there is a lack of other things, but are there still shortages of refugees?"
People will die in war, but Mo Guangsheng and King Mingchun were very restrained before.
Except for the shelling in the last two days.
King Mingchun wanted to completely maim the soldiers and horses of the imperial court before leaving, so as not to catch them up.It is enough to delay for three to five days.
"My lord, do you want to leave some soldiers and horses to set up a suspicious battle, so that they won't find out?" Cheng Feng said with a frown.
Yang Tianhe shook his head, "It's not right, they have been fighting us for a long time, even if they are suspicious, they may not be able to see it. And leaving such a large number of tents is not worth the gain, why not take them away together."
Cheng Feng: "What if they send people to chase after them?"
King Mingchun smiled faintly, and looked at the tall general, "If Mo Guangsheng thinks that I will push out all the cannons, then he is very wrong."
How could King Mingchun play all the trump cards left behind for deterrence?
Yang Tianhe said with a smile: "There is nothing else, such things can still be saved to some extent."
Cheng Feng also had a smile on his face, except he was worried about the danger in the rear, he didn't care about it.Right now, the territory controlled by King Mingchun has doubled in size compared to before.Although there are not many, there are also many. As long as you can fight steadily, you may not be unable to succeed.
King Mingchun restrained his smile, looked at the four or five confidantes in the camp, and exhaled, "Chen Wenxiu has found it."
"what?"
"Little princess?"
"She's not dead!"
The three consecutive questionings were enough to show their surprise.
They originally thought that Chen Wenxiu had died long ago.
Yang Tian and the fat man suddenly realized that what King Mingchun was talking about was not the concubine, but Chen Wenxiu.He frowned and said, "Could it be that the princess betrayed the prince?"
King Mingchun said expressionlessly: "The spies saw a suspected figure of Chen Wenxiu during the case of Tan Qingshan. When they investigated further, the person they found was Chen Xiang, who is now in the women's academy run by Princess Menghuai. As the dean, although she looks different from Chen Wenxiu, the time she appeared happened to be some time after Chen Wenxiu disappeared."
Then, he said a few dates.
Yang Tianhe quickly thought in his mind, "This time, if you hurry back to the capital, this time may be just right."
"Prince Menghuai... I remember that this prince is very cautious and timid. Let alone a rebellion, he was taken to the Xuhuai Palace by Emperor Zhengshi before, and he must have been scared out of his wits. If Chen Xiang is really Chen Wenxiu, That matter should have nothing to do with him."
"My lord, are you sure?" Yang Tianhe said calmly.
Because from the obvious point of view, the Women's Academy has nothing to do with Emperor Zhengshi.
According to their previous speculation, Chen Wenxiu should have been taken away by Emperor Zhengshi's people.It was precisely because of Emperor Zhengshi's extremeness that King Mingchun was sure that Chen Wenxiu would definitely not be left alive.
King Mingchun nodded slowly, "The spies followed her for a while and found that she had been in the Military Weapons Supervision." For this special information, King Mingchun used all the last buried stakes in Beijing.
Now that the Dark Chess has basically been abolished, it is only then that the news is barely dug out.
Ordnance Superintendent...
Yang Tianhe's face darkened, and when this place was involved, the probability of Chen Xiang being Chen Wenxiu increased significantly.
Cheng Feng slapped the table, gritted his teeth and said, "It would be great if Tan Qingshan's actions were successful." They already knew about Tan Qingshan's failure as early as the end of last year.
Boss Lei's dark move is completely gone.
Thinking of Boss Lei, Yang Tianhe suddenly understood why King Mingchun insisted on going back. If Boss Lei fell in the capital, he might not hide his secret after being caught and interrogated.
But the secret that Boss Lei is carrying happens to be related to the rear!
"My lord, do you want to..." Cheng Feng gestured.
King Mingchun shook his head, "The dark chess in the capital is almost lost, and we can't make any more moves. Moreover, the collapse of the Lin family in Yingchuan has frightened the aristocratic family, and no one will act rashly for the time being. And the capital has been in the past six months. It is impossible to relax the guard inside, and if you want to send people in, it is impossible."
Whether it is Mo Jingchun or Chen Wenxiu, there must be someone protecting them, and they have to break through and shoot from the heavy protection...
King Mingchun shook his head, and said slowly: "Don't think too much, let's go back and rest first, and let the army go out after three days."
"Yes!"
Three days later, Mo Guangsheng saw an unexpected person in addition to the supplies he knew.He patted the man on the shoulder in surprise, looked him up and down, "what are you, why are you here?"
This is a talent that Mo Guangsheng has been begging for for several years, and even thought he would never get it again.
The man was pale, coughed a few times as if he was just recovering from a serious illness, and said with a smile: "Will the general not let me in?"
"Hahahahaha—" Mo Guangsheng laughed loudly and welcomed him in.
With him, why worry about adding wings to a tiger!
...
Turn the time back to the fourth day of the fourth day.
The foggy sky looks a bit dark. Usually, the sun should have been high, but at this time, there is only a thin layer of light left on the horizon. The thick and cold fog is oppressive and cold, accompanied by Hearing the sound of rooster crowing in the early morning, people couldn't help shivering from the cold.
Just like the season of early spring, only the name is worth talking about, and there is no recovery at all.
In such a cold weather, Ji Mansion turned on the lights early.
The silent, ambiguous light shines through the mist, exuding a dim warmth.There are some unpredictable dark colors, covering the whole house, only a few different places can be vaguely seen, and there are people walking around with lanterns, as if they are patrolling or doing morning exercises Prepare.
And sitting in the center, the quietest courtyard where no one dares to disturb...
The light, however, never went out all night.
It should have been the quietest and most peaceful place, and there were strange and struggling movements all night long, with occasional groans, or embarrassing howls, like the final mourning of a fragile prey.
But in the silent Ji Mansion, it seemed that no one could hear the faint, almost cut off cry for help.
When a cool wind blew away, blowing away the gathered mist and exposing the cold and clear sky, I heard the owner of the yard calling for water slowly.
Originally, it was better to go to Tangquan, where Mo Jingchun could relax, but now Emperor Zhengshi, who was sitting next to him, felt that if he really hugged Mo Jingchun, the current soft wife would probably end up in Tangquan. Will it be completely melted away?
Even after calling for hot water, it was still a torment for Mo Jingchun.
Every touch evokes a reaction from him.
His eyes were terribly red and swollen, as if the corners of his eyes had been stained red by constant crying, the corners of his mouth were a little torn, and his fingers were densely covered with horrible bite marks...
But Mo Jingchun was really confused by His Majesty's words, and subconsciously took a step back.
Behind him was the screen of sea waves. After his back was pressed against the cold screen, Mo Jingchun's voice had regained his composure, and he said calmly: "Your Majesty, do you think that Tao Niang wants Chen Wenxiu and Chen Wenxiu to be together?" Together?"
He restrained himself from calling Chen Wenxiu's name directly to avoid the emperor's vigilance. On the other hand, combined with Chen Wenxiu's haste last night, Tao Niang took the initiative to bring up the matter of remarriage, and His Majesty came out of Beijing rashly this day. Unrestrained killing intent... Based on the combination of these points, Mo Jingchun came to such a conclusion.
But when he guessed this point, Mo Jingchun felt that this matter was ridiculous.
Tao Niang will not be limited by the idea of being in the same family, but her consideration of Chen Wenxiu cannot be concluded in a day, at most she is stimulated by Chen Wenxiu, and she has such a small idea.
But it's just an idea, and it may not come true.
As for Chen Wenxiu, not to mention that she was an ambitious girl, just looking at her Congxin in front of the emperor before, she could tell that Chen Wenxiu would never let herself fall into the trap again.
She is not stupid, at least from several encounters, it can be seen that the emperor attaches great importance to Mo Jingchun.
Chen Wenxiu didn't dare.
This one dare not, and the other is random. You can deduce it clearly just by thinking about it.This may be the reason why Emperor Zhengshi was furious, but did not take any real action.
"It's not a 'thinking'," Zhengshi Emperor and Mo Jingchun were only a fist apart, "it's a fact."
Mo Jingchun retorted, "Tao Niang at most has such thoughts, but after thinking about it for a long time, she will definitely consider her family background and the wishes of the minister. It is even more impossible for Chen Wenxiu to be tempted by the minister, whether it is the two of them Who among people should be innocent.
"Why should His Majesty be angry about this?"
Emperor Zhengshi thoughtfully played with the little puppet in his hand, and Mo Jingchun could feel the feeling of being pinched all over his body again.His majesty's strength is not heavy, but it's a bit like teasing and harassing, so that people don't feel angry, but they also feel a little helpless.
"The widow didn't kill them, did he?"
However, what he said didn't seem like the calmness he showed.
"Master, do you want to defend them?"
Mo Jingchun laughed angrily, "This is not an excuse, it's the truth." He didn't even try to hide Tao Niang's thoughts just now.
According to Mo Jingchun's guess, it does exist.
Emperor Zhengshi's eyes were bright, and he looked a little frightening and unnaturally crazy.He moved closer, the tip of his nose moved slightly, as if he was sniffing Mo Jingchun's body.At such a close distance, the movements of each other are like white cranes crossing their necks, or tigers and beasts obsessed with each other. In the sticky contact, the tall shadow almost enveloped Mo Jingchun.
Mo Jingchun hadn't felt such condescending coercion from Emperor Zhengshi for a long time.
He raised his neck unconsciously, revealing his fair and delicate skin.
Emperor Zhengshi's breath rushed over, making Mo Jingchun uncontrollably tremble a few times, like a frightened bird.
Emperor Zhengshi seemed to be obsessed with the breath of Mo Jingchun's neck, the smell that belonged to the master was wrapped in Yunluoxiang, and under the warm body temperature, the smell became more thick and warm.
He subconsciously wanted to catch the smelly gas, and subconsciously took a deep breath.
It took a long time for Emperor Zhengshi to stand up straight again, and looked at Mo Jingchun carefully, with a terrifying sense of joy in his eyes, as if he was weighing what to say.
How to divide and how to eat is the ultimate way.
After all, the cakes brought back were originally meant to be eaten.
Mo Jingchun's scalp was numb, he hadn't felt such a trembling for a long time.
The feeling of danger rushes from the limbs to the apex of the heart, silent screams spread throughout the body, and there is a desire to move and collapse on the heels.
If Mo Jingchun hadn't forcibly suppressed those thoughts, maybe in the next moment, Mo Jingchun would turn around and run away without hesitation.
He licked his mouth stiffly, "Your Majesty?"
Emperor Zhengshi hadn't spoken for a while.
He just looked at Mo Jingchun carefully and seriously, the black eyes were full of hot light, almost scalding to the point where the scalding temperature was unbearable, like a burning flame .
Emperor Zhengshi said stickily: "Whether you justify it or not, it all shows one thing. The master and Sui Zhizhen don't know how many people care about them."
Mo Jingchun was angry and funny, what with Sui Zhizhen?
And who will miss him?
"Your Majesty, you think highly of me, no one would..."
Mo Jingchun was trying to convince Emperor Zhengshi with the facts, but he saw him staring at him with particularly weird eyes that sent chills down the spine, the kind of cut inch by inch, as if to peel people apart, so naked and terrifying The sight made Mo Jingchun's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched into a fist, like an unconscious move.
Emperor Zhengshi grinned slowly, like a beast about to prey, "No?"
Without hesitation, he dropped the little doll into his mouth and swallowed it whole.
Even Mo Jingchun only had time to reach out his hand, as if to stop it, but it was too late, he just let out an extremely miserable scream from his throat, and fell to the ground, unable to stop that brutal, devastating, An almost insane touch.
Except for the scream at the very beginning, the limp figure made no more sound.
When Emperor Zhengshi lowered his body and hugged the poor Mo Jingchun who shrunk into a ball, he realized that the master was clenching his fingers into fists and then covering his mouth.
Under that hasty movement, this unusually rude behavior blocked the whimpering sound.
Only dull, heavy breathing remained.
Emperor Zhengshi wrapped Mo Jingchun in a quilt, and after making sure that there was no trace left, he carried Mo Jingchun under the wrap and went out.
As he walked, his tongue moved, as if turned over by something in his mouth.
The thing in the bedding squirmed twice, like some kind of uncontrollable bouncing reflex.
The action of Emperor Zhengshi alarmed the people who were already in the courtyard, but the people in the study room in the outer courtyard were basically dismissed by Mohen and Wei Yi, and the rest were only the secret guards hiding in the dark and the guards outside the door. two people.After they heard the movement, they hurried over from the door, but they only saw Emperor Zhengshi alone.
And the big thing in his arms... It looks like a person.
Mo Hen's face changed slightly, he just felt that this behavior was crazy and shameful, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Wei Yi's face was already pale, and the sweat couldn't stop rolling down from his forehead. He didn't know how he made himself so terrified in such a short period of time.He stretched out his hand to stop Mohen, and said humbly: "Your Majesty, this is the Mo Mansion. I certainly don't want to be bumped into by others. Please give me a little time to clean up the people on the way, so as not to Hit."
Emperor Zhengshi looked a little weird, he didn't know if he was eating something in his mouth, he was slowly chewing...or licking, no one could tell the difference just from a rough glance.
His Majesty nodded slowly and did not speak.
Wei Yi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, dragged Mo Hen forcefully to retreat, and then walked out with big strides, while asking people to stop everyone on the only way to go out, and he wanted to rush to the palace, The people there are also temporarily transferred.After all, it was good for them to watch Emperor Zhengshi come in, but if they watched His Majesty go out with that ball of things in his arms, it would be easy for rumors to spread.
Originally, this matter should be done in two ways by him and Mohenbing.
But looking at Mohen's appearance, Wei Yi might as well carry him with him, lest he get agitated and run to His Majesty to die.
Mohen said hurriedly: "Wei Yi! You just let His Majesty take Lang Jun away like this?"
Wei Yi's footsteps were fast, and he still had the energy to cast a sideways glance at Mohen, and said with a sneer, "Otherwise? Are you trying to rush to His Majesty to stop him? Then when Lang Jun comes back to his senses, he will find that you are already dead." Already!"
Mohen scratched his neck, "That's different. So, such a move, it's really..."
Wei Yi sighed, shook his head and said, "According to Lang Jun's strength, he may not be able to defeat His Majesty, but if he wants to fight for a period of time, let us know by sending out some movement, perhaps to summon the hidden guards." Going in, that's all possible. However, from just now, can you feel any trace? Even His Majesty swaggered out, but you didn't see Langjun make a sound, maybe, this should be the... hobby of the two of them?" Said When the last word was uttered, Wei Yi's face couldn't help but twisted a bit.
It's fine for others, but Mr. Wang?
That really doesn't fit.
But apart from this speculation, Wei Yi really doesn't know why the gentleman keeps silent?
Mo Hen was reluctantly persuaded by Wei Yi, and erased the memory of this matter from his mind.
After watching the strange group of carriages and horses leave, Wei Yi took a deep breath and collapsed in the dark room, almost kneeling down.Mohen held him by the arm, pressed more than half of Wei Yi's weight on his shoulders, and said strangely: "Are you feeling unwell?" Why did your feet suddenly go limp?
Wei Yi breathed heavily, waved his hands and said, "No, it's not."
He's just, scared.
When Emperor Zhengshi passed by him and strode into the carriage, Wei Yi could only feel the thick and dirty darkness.His throat seemed to be choked violently, and he was hung up. The terrifying aura made him tremble, and he almost made a big fool of himself.
It wasn't until the carriage went away, until those silent people followed up, that he felt weak all over and almost fell down.
Mo Hen frowned and looked at Wei Yi. They had been together for several years, and they knew each other's characters long ago.If Wei Yi wasn't sick, then why... His eyes fell on the place where he could no longer see the chariots and horses, he gradually became serious, and he grabbed Wei Yi's shoulder suddenly, "You, you noticed it , that one..." His voice was fast and anxious, as if he remembered something terrible.
Wei Yi nodded softly, and said silently, "Dangerous."
There is only the danger of making his scalp tingle and wanting to retch.
Mohen was so angry that he grabbed his hair. If Wei Yi was not still pressing on him, he would have been pacing back and forth anxiously, "Since it is so dangerous, how can you just watch Langjun go..."
The word "send to death" was firmly pressed on the root of Mohen's tongue, not daring to spit it out.
Wei Yi smiled wryly and said, "Which time did you not rely on the Lord to calm down?"
He let out a breath, and had another guess in his mind, but looking at Mohen, he didn't say it, but shook his head and said: "Don't think too much, what you and I should worry about is my own life instead. And Lang Jun... How could Your Majesty hurt Lang Jun?" He slowly stood up straight, "But Lang Jun may not be able to come back in time tonight, when the time comes, Da Furen must have a suitable reason."
Mohen glanced at Wei Yi silently, but couldn't help but want to curse.
At this moment, at the end of the street, there was an old man and a young man walking unhurriedly.As he got closer, he could tell that the young man following behind was carrying a medicine box in his hand. It was the medicine boy.
This is Dr. Qin and his drug boy from Ren Shan Tang.
Mohen and Wei Yi, who were going back to the mansion, did not rush back when they saw Dr. Qin, but stood there waiting for them to come.
"Doctor Qin, why are you here?"
Doctor Qin said with a smile: "Ma'am asked me to come over and show the body to the people in the house, in case it's cold and cold, and I don't notice it in time because I have a hot head and aching feet."
Wei Yi nodded in his heart, this feeling is like asking for the peace pulse in the palace, more like preventing it in advance, rather than seeing a doctor after getting sick.
The two happened to be in the locker room, so they took the place of the doorman, made it easier for Dr. Qin, and brought him in.It's just that on the way, I told him that Mo Shangshu, who lives in the family, happened to be away on business.
Doctor Qin didn't care too much, and said with a smile that he would do it next time when he was free.
When Dr. Qin was sent to the main courtyard, Mo Hen stopped, stood there silent for a moment, wiped his face, and hurried to the direction of the gate just now.
In addition to what Mo Jingchun had ordered earlier, Mohen still had one more thing to do.
...
"Your Majesty went to see Mo Jingchun again?"
It was already half afternoon when Zheng Tianhe received the news.Those who are watching the whereabouts may not dare to get too close, nor dare to confront the Mo family and His Majesty unscrupulously.What they can do is to follow the traces left behind step by step, and then dig out the results they want.
"Yes, but the carriage is not going to the palace, but to the east of the city." The man said in a low voice, "However, it is not certain whether Mo Jingchun is in the carriage, and after going to the east of the city, Our people don’t dare to follow too closely for fear of being discovered, so we only know roughly which neighborhoods we might be in.”
Zheng Tianhe shook his head, "There is no need to follow, be careful."
He ordered people to keep an eye on Mo's family, not to send them all to be buried with him.It is enough to only need these general information, so as not to be followed by Emperor Zhengshi, but to be uprooted instead.
He was silent for a moment, got up and went to the desk, wrote a few numbers on it with a pen, and then called the housekeeper, "Send this letter to Jiao's house."
The Jiao family, not the Jiao family.
The butler bowed and walked out silently.
After watching him leave, Zheng Tianhe paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and occasionally he could hear him coughing lightly.In the evening, a low-key and simple carriage stopped outside Zheng's residence. Jiao Lian'an got out of the carriage slowly and was welcomed in by the steward who had been waiting for a long time.
When Jiao Lian'an arrived at the Zheng residence, Zheng Yunxiu also received the news.
She had already asked the maid beside her to find a few young maids, and went to the gatehouse and the Hanging Flower Gate to keep an eye on them. If there was any news, she would report it directly.
Before Zheng Tianhe publicly expressed his attitude, Zheng Yunxiu could still instruct the people around him.
After receiving the news that someone came to see her father, Zheng Yunxiu's face changed slightly, and she sat in front of the vanity mirror, looking at herself indistinctly inside.Although she still had that pretty face, she was worried all the time.
Vaguely, she seemed to see Kang Yujia's blue and white face.
Zheng Yunxiu couldn't help shivering every time he thought of her swollen body after swallowing too much water.
"Wu Niang, why don't you eat something?"
The maid next to her persuaded, Zheng Yunxiu couldn't eat for several days, and it was even more obvious today, she refused to even eat.
Zheng Yunxiu covered her face impatiently, to block the depression.
She doesn't want to go to the family temple.
The horror of the family temple, Zheng Yunxiu has been very aware of it. Going there is not only poverty and poverty, but also endures endless humiliation. The Wuxin master who is in charge of the family temple happens to be a cruel monk and nun. The house girl died under her hands.
The most frightening thing is that this is the tacit consent of the Zheng family.
In other words, this was the purpose of the Zheng family sending people there.
Only the daughter of the Zheng family who made a mistake, had an accident, and was abandoned to go home, would suffer this kind of ordeal.As for her words... Zheng Yunxiu believed that her father would never allow herself to be tainted with such a stigma.Therefore, he will definitely not declare his crime on the surface, but will only quietly send her to the family temple after everything is settled, and then explain in Zheng's house that she suddenly fell ill and died suddenly, or other words...
Zheng Yunxiu's face was wrinkled into a ball, and she sat up straight suddenly.
An impossible idea flashed in her mind, she suddenly jumped up from the desk, and paced back and forth.Zheng Yunxiu suddenly remembered the reason why she went to Jiao's before, that "fundraiser", or something... that woman, what's her name?
Zheng Yunxiu thought for a long time, then sat down suddenly, took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, then hurriedly wrote a letter, and then asked the most trusted maid to take it out.
A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Tianhe, who was seeing off the visitor, tilted his head, "Let her go."
He casually covers the blanket over his lap.
...
Outside Zheng's house, the low-key carriage when it came, and the plain carriage when it left, moved gently.
It was Jiao Lian'an who was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed and resting his mind.
Jiao Lian'an and Zheng Tianhe were good friends when they were young.
At that time, although making friends also cared about their backgrounds, but only Jiao Lian'an and the others would not ignore the sick and weak Zheng Tianhe, no one could have imagined that in the end it was Zheng Tianhe who took control of the Zheng family.However, this friendship has continued until now, even though the two have gradually drifted apart because of their different ideas, they seldom contact each other.
But Zheng Tianhe believes that as long as he writes, there is still an [-]% chance that Jiao Lian'an will come.
Looking at it now, Jiao Lian'an is indeed here.
Jiao Lian'an, who was sitting in the carriage, sighed deeply, and opened his eyes again.
His originally dark sideburns had turned gray, and he looked completely different from the energetic one a year ago. Jiao Lian'an looked a little old-fashioned now, as if his energy had been swallowed by something, and even his movements were a little sluggish.
Losing Jiao Mingxiang and Jiao Shicong one after another, such a blow made Jiao Lian'an feel depressed, and it was difficult to get out.
It was precisely because the Jiao family was involved, so when Jiao Lianan found out that the Zheng family was among those who were beheaded, he knew that the Zheng family also had a share.
If it wasn't for His Majesty's other plans, it might not be the current situation.
Therefore, even though Jiao Lian'an came to Zheng's house in person, he pretended to ignore Zheng Tianhe's hints.
In a way, this is also a reaction.
Jiao Lian'an sighed, no matter who is sitting on the throne, as long as he is the emperor, as long as he does not bring the crisis of overthrowing the country, to him, it doesn't matter who is sitting.
Naturally, Jiao Lian'an was unwilling to cause more killings.
However, he knew that Zheng Tianhe had no such plan.
One failure is enough to deter them.
In a short period of time, five years or ten years, they will definitely not have such thoughts again.
But what Zheng Tianhe wants to do right now?
Jiao Lian'an was a little worried. It seemed that he had to keep an eye on the Zheng family.
...
"Boom--"
The cannonballs were raging all over the sky. Just two days after the new year, King Mingchun rushed like crazy for a day, and didn't come to a halt until that night.
There are scorched black marks on the outside of the city wall, and there are some leaks everywhere, but the city wall still stands firm and has not fallen down due to the bombardment of the past few days.
Listening to the number of casualties, Mo Guangsheng exhaled slowly and smiled wryly.
"Fortunately, as expected."
The lieutenant general sat under him and said in a low voice: "General, these days, the rebels have been stimulated and bombed continuously. This doesn't seem to be their style."
King Mingchun was very cautious.
For them, weapons like the Fortress are definitely not weapons that can be seen everywhere. They used them with restrictions before, but in the past few days, they have been swaying like they don’t want money, and there is a vicious momentum. It made them somewhat confused.
Under the attack of the rebel artillery, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court were also seriously damaged.
But this is a siege battle after all, and the defenders still have some weak advantages.
Mo Guangsheng stroked the beard on his chin. When he was marching, he didn't care about these miscellaneous things at all. Now the beard has become a big beard, a little frizzy.
"Remember? The address someone sent you before."
Mo Guangsheng said suddenly, making the other officers and lieutenants a little confused. After a while, an aide recalled the incident and said loudly, "It's the place where the rebels smelt their weapons!"
"Yes, we have already grasped the relevant information, but the rebels here are dragging our footsteps, making it impossible for our army to attack in time, but we are unable to move, which is equivalent to the main force of the rebels, and we are also delayed Here. Isn’t this another level of stalemate?” Mo Guangsheng shook his head and said, “In the past few days, the successive attacks of the rebels are not right, I guess they are going to run away.”
"run?"
An aide said aloud: "The general's meaning... Could it be that the rebels plan to withdraw their forces and maintain this stalemate for the time being?"
The lieutenant frowned, with a knife still on his knee, "Could it be that someone surrounded their rear, and the rebels wanted to retreat in time to protect their smelting site, and then use this opportunity to get rid of the stalemate with the imperial army? Rest for a while..."
The staff member sitting closest to Mo Guangsheng said in a deep voice: "We have the news that was sent to the general at the beginning, and the court will naturally have it. When the general can't spare manpower to deal with it, there will be someone who comes after him. The army's recent actions are indeed wrong, if you look at it zoomed in, it may be that before we left, we were maimed and wounded, making us lose the strength to catch up... In this way, they couldn't fulfill their wish."
Mo Guangsheng snorted coldly, "So what? According to our previous inference, their artillery fire should be silenced in three days at most. If the rebels take advantage of this opportunity to retreat, let's call in a team of surprise soldiers to chase after them." go up."
One of the staff said helplessly: "General, you have forgotten the problem of food and grass."
Mo Guangsheng shook his head with a smile, "Just doing a detailed investigation, the speed of their army may not be as fast as ours. If there is a lot to do, then send people back." According to his meaning, it is to go into battle lightly and only do spying. Do not engage in combat.
"What if they only withdraw half?" The lieutenant frowned, "That may not be obvious."
Mo Guangsheng patted the lieutenant's shoulder with his bear paw, and said amusedly, "What's wrong? We've been staring at them for so long, can't we even see their suspicious formation?"
Another staff member shook his head, "General, what if they don't leave after three days?"
Mo Guangsheng showed a strange smile, "Then it's their turn to be unlucky. According to the news I received, our reinforcements will arrive in three or four days."
All the soldiers were stunned, with smiles unconsciously showing on their faces.
After the meeting was over, Mo Guangsheng hurried back to his place of residence, swallowed the cold rice in two or three bites, and then walked out with the map in his hands.
enemy camp.
King Mingchun sat at the top, and on the left and right were familiar confidantes.
However, Xu Liu was gone.
In an enemy attack, in order to save King Mingchun, he blocked an arrow himself and was killed on the spot.
Now the armor on King Mingchun's body is bathed in blood, which is enough to show that they fought fiercely, but this has improved in the last half month.
After King Mingchun ordered not to be stingy with artillery fire, the successive bombings almost flattened the entire city.Although most of the cannonballs fell on the city wall, a few of them fell into the city. The sound and movement of the explosion were enough to show the power.
Judging from the fact that the number of people rotating on the city wall has decreased in the past few days, this has indeed dealt a certain blow to the soldiers and horses in the city.
such a pity.Yang Tianhe sighed in his heart, if they could produce more artillery fire in another one or two years, they would not have to be limited by the shortage of production, and they would be able to wage war on a large scale.
What the little princess said was good.
"Build walls high, accumulate food widely, and become king slowly."
Sometimes, the little princess can always say something very reasonable.
It's a pity, it's a pity for them to raise troops in such a hurry.
Although they were indeed able to suppress Mo Guangsheng with artillery fire, he was extremely talented in command. When he was at a disadvantage, he was able to drag their main force to death here firmly, so that King Mingchun could not split his mind to deal with it. somewhere else.
Now the territory they have laid down can only be barely maintained, but it cannot be operated by itself.
After what happened to the Heng family before, the aristocratic families on the land they laid down, no matter how big or small, would rather take refuge in the imperial court or take the risk of crossing south than stay.
And another big thing...
It was the matter that made King Mingchun extremely anxious these few days.
Something happened to his rear.
The most recent information sent was very clear. It seemed that the probing enemies were faintly detected around the "hometown", but they were very cunning and cunning, leaving no trace.Of course, the "hometown" side also said that it may be too sensitive, which is why the illusion occurred.
But King Mingchun felt that this would not be an illusion.
If it was an illusion, they wouldn't have written such a letter again.
At least in the eyes of the person in charge of the "hometown", the danger has far exceeded expectations, and he has to report back to him.
After hesitating for half a day, King Mingchun made up his mind to withdraw his troops.
The Mingchun army planned to retreat, stick to the ground that had already been conquered, temporarily recuperate, and rush back to the rear at the same time, so as not to catch fire in the rear and make it difficult to return to the reinforcements.
"My lord, if you give me another five days, I might be able to capture this city."
On the right side of Cheng Feng, there was an unusually sturdy and tall man kneeling on the cushion, frowning and talking.
King Mingchun glanced at him, said with a faint smile: "General Ma, time is the most important thing. I think you can see clearly which is more important."
Five days?
This cannon fire will last for at most three more days.
Yang Tianhe said: "My lord, many aristocratic families are going south now, and they probably won't come back in a short time. The population of many towns has been lost, and the future harvest may not be good." Although the territory has expanded, if there is no If people farm, those fields are nothing but waste.
Mingchun Wang Hun said indifferently: "When we go back, we will plunder some refugees and force them to go back. Now there is a lack of other things, but are there still shortages of refugees?"
People will die in war, but Mo Guangsheng and King Mingchun were very restrained before.
Except for the shelling in the last two days.
King Mingchun wanted to completely maim the soldiers and horses of the imperial court before leaving, so as not to catch them up.It is enough to delay for three to five days.
"My lord, do you want to leave some soldiers and horses to set up a suspicious battle, so that they won't find out?" Cheng Feng said with a frown.
Yang Tianhe shook his head, "It's not right, they have been fighting us for a long time, even if they are suspicious, they may not be able to see it. And leaving such a large number of tents is not worth the gain, why not take them away together."
Cheng Feng: "What if they send people to chase after them?"
King Mingchun smiled faintly, and looked at the tall general, "If Mo Guangsheng thinks that I will push out all the cannons, then he is very wrong."
How could King Mingchun play all the trump cards left behind for deterrence?
Yang Tianhe said with a smile: "There is nothing else, such things can still be saved to some extent."
Cheng Feng also had a smile on his face, except he was worried about the danger in the rear, he didn't care about it.Right now, the territory controlled by King Mingchun has doubled in size compared to before.Although there are not many, there are also many. As long as you can fight steadily, you may not be unable to succeed.
King Mingchun restrained his smile, looked at the four or five confidantes in the camp, and exhaled, "Chen Wenxiu has found it."
"what?"
"Little princess?"
"She's not dead!"
The three consecutive questionings were enough to show their surprise.
They originally thought that Chen Wenxiu had died long ago.
Yang Tian and the fat man suddenly realized that what King Mingchun was talking about was not the concubine, but Chen Wenxiu.He frowned and said, "Could it be that the princess betrayed the prince?"
King Mingchun said expressionlessly: "The spies saw a suspected figure of Chen Wenxiu during the case of Tan Qingshan. When they investigated further, the person they found was Chen Xiang, who is now in the women's academy run by Princess Menghuai. As the dean, although she looks different from Chen Wenxiu, the time she appeared happened to be some time after Chen Wenxiu disappeared."
Then, he said a few dates.
Yang Tianhe quickly thought in his mind, "This time, if you hurry back to the capital, this time may be just right."
"Prince Menghuai... I remember that this prince is very cautious and timid. Let alone a rebellion, he was taken to the Xuhuai Palace by Emperor Zhengshi before, and he must have been scared out of his wits. If Chen Xiang is really Chen Wenxiu, That matter should have nothing to do with him."
"My lord, are you sure?" Yang Tianhe said calmly.
Because from the obvious point of view, the Women's Academy has nothing to do with Emperor Zhengshi.
According to their previous speculation, Chen Wenxiu should have been taken away by Emperor Zhengshi's people.It was precisely because of Emperor Zhengshi's extremeness that King Mingchun was sure that Chen Wenxiu would definitely not be left alive.
King Mingchun nodded slowly, "The spies followed her for a while and found that she had been in the Military Weapons Supervision." For this special information, King Mingchun used all the last buried stakes in Beijing.
Now that the Dark Chess has basically been abolished, it is only then that the news is barely dug out.
Ordnance Superintendent...
Yang Tianhe's face darkened, and when this place was involved, the probability of Chen Xiang being Chen Wenxiu increased significantly.
Cheng Feng slapped the table, gritted his teeth and said, "It would be great if Tan Qingshan's actions were successful." They already knew about Tan Qingshan's failure as early as the end of last year.
Boss Lei's dark move is completely gone.
Thinking of Boss Lei, Yang Tianhe suddenly understood why King Mingchun insisted on going back. If Boss Lei fell in the capital, he might not hide his secret after being caught and interrogated.
But the secret that Boss Lei is carrying happens to be related to the rear!
"My lord, do you want to..." Cheng Feng gestured.
King Mingchun shook his head, "The dark chess in the capital is almost lost, and we can't make any more moves. Moreover, the collapse of the Lin family in Yingchuan has frightened the aristocratic family, and no one will act rashly for the time being. And the capital has been in the past six months. It is impossible to relax the guard inside, and if you want to send people in, it is impossible."
Whether it is Mo Jingchun or Chen Wenxiu, there must be someone protecting them, and they have to break through and shoot from the heavy protection...
King Mingchun shook his head, and said slowly: "Don't think too much, let's go back and rest first, and let the army go out after three days."
"Yes!"
Three days later, Mo Guangsheng saw an unexpected person in addition to the supplies he knew.He patted the man on the shoulder in surprise, looked him up and down, "what are you, why are you here?"
This is a talent that Mo Guangsheng has been begging for for several years, and even thought he would never get it again.
The man was pale, coughed a few times as if he was just recovering from a serious illness, and said with a smile: "Will the general not let me in?"
"Hahahahaha—" Mo Guangsheng laughed loudly and welcomed him in.
With him, why worry about adding wings to a tiger!
...
Turn the time back to the fourth day of the fourth day.
The foggy sky looks a bit dark. Usually, the sun should have been high, but at this time, there is only a thin layer of light left on the horizon. The thick and cold fog is oppressive and cold, accompanied by Hearing the sound of rooster crowing in the early morning, people couldn't help shivering from the cold.
Just like the season of early spring, only the name is worth talking about, and there is no recovery at all.
In such a cold weather, Ji Mansion turned on the lights early.
The silent, ambiguous light shines through the mist, exuding a dim warmth.There are some unpredictable dark colors, covering the whole house, only a few different places can be vaguely seen, and there are people walking around with lanterns, as if they are patrolling or doing morning exercises Prepare.
And sitting in the center, the quietest courtyard where no one dares to disturb...
The light, however, never went out all night.
It should have been the quietest and most peaceful place, and there were strange and struggling movements all night long, with occasional groans, or embarrassing howls, like the final mourning of a fragile prey.
But in the silent Ji Mansion, it seemed that no one could hear the faint, almost cut off cry for help.
When a cool wind blew away, blowing away the gathered mist and exposing the cold and clear sky, I heard the owner of the yard calling for water slowly.
Originally, it was better to go to Tangquan, where Mo Jingchun could relax, but now Emperor Zhengshi, who was sitting next to him, felt that if he really hugged Mo Jingchun, the current soft wife would probably end up in Tangquan. Will it be completely melted away?
Even after calling for hot water, it was still a torment for Mo Jingchun.
Every touch evokes a reaction from him.
His eyes were terribly red and swollen, as if the corners of his eyes had been stained red by constant crying, the corners of his mouth were a little torn, and his fingers were densely covered with horrible bite marks...
