The Four Concubines

Yun Xiao took the dark satellite and rushed to Shanping Pass day and night. The original five-day journey was shortened by Yun Xiao to three days.

On the evening of the third day, Shanping Pass was close at hand, Yun Xiao dismounted outside the pass, and pulled A Liang to look at the neighbor behind him.

"Ah Liang." Yun Xiao called out.

"Huh?" Aliang couldn't stand the turbulence for several days.

"I'm leaving, kowtow three times to Gobi." Yun Xiao said softly.

Although Ah Liang didn't understand why he had to kowtow after leaving the Gobi, he still heard Yun Xiao's words, knelt down respectfully, and kowtowed three times devoutly to the Gobi.

Yun Xiao took one last look at Gobi, turned around and mounted the horse, and was led by the dark guard to walk across Shanping Pass.

A group of people came out of the small road, and Pingcheng was already close at hand. Compared with before, Pingcheng has also undergone obvious changes. The soldiers on the city wall are fully armed and patrolling. Outside the city, there is a post every three steps, and a sentry post every ten steps. They are obviously in a state of combat readiness. .

It seems that Changsun Wuchen has completely taken over Pingcheng.

The soldiers guarding the city recognized Yun Xiao, and while calling to open the city gate, they announced the return of the emperor to the city.

Arriving at the gate of the prefect's mansion unhindered, Yun Xiao dismounted, and Changsun Wuchen and Chen prefect were already waiting behind the gate.

Ah Liang was pulled by Yun Xiao, looked at the people who were standing, and knelt down towards the people around him.

"Uncle Xiao, why are they all kneeling down?"

Yun Xiao looked around, "Because... I am the emperor."

Ah Liang, "Wow, is the emperor so powerful? Then shall I kneel down too?"

Yun Xiao glanced at Ah Liang, knelt down and supported his shoulders, smiling, but said in a very serious tone, "You don't need to kneel to anyone except your parents, ancestors, and the world, you are mine. Nephew, if someone asks your name when you go to the capital, you can tell them openly that your surname is Yun and your name is Yun Liang."

"Okay, I got it!" Ah Liang answered bluntly, but the people around were terrified. Yun Liang... With this surname, when did the royal family still have such a bloodline.

Yun Xiao got up and looked at the others, "Get up."

Yun Xiao saw Chen Wei who was looking at her in the crowd, and nodded to her, "This child has worked hard with me for a few days, you can help prepare something to eat."

Chen Gui nodded, turned and left.

Yun Xiao looked at Changsun Wuchen and said, "General Changsun, come with me, the others should do what they want."

After finishing speaking, he dragged Ah Liang to the small courtyard arranged for her earlier.

Chen Wei prepared quickly, Yun Xiao asked them to take care of A Liang, went back to the house and changed his clothes, and carefully put away the Guangxia clothes on his body.

Ah Liang was arranged in Yunxiao's courtyard, followed by two hidden guards.

Yun Xiao called Changsun Wuchen and Chen Wei to the study, and began to ask about the situation these days.

Kepler was even more anxious than Yun Xiao imagined. In the past half a month, he organized nearly ten attacks, large and small. Changsun Wuchen followed Yun Xiao's rumors, only defending but not attacking, and restrained himself angrily. Buller yelled outside every day.

Although they didn't understand what they were scolding.

"Well, he must be in a hurry." Yun Xiao said lightly, "We are guarding a Pingcheng, and we have plenty of food and grass, but they can't do it. They are holding a Shanping Pass, and there is no decent city for hundreds of miles behind them. Don't be in a hurry."

Changsun Wuchen: "What does His Majesty mean, is that we wait until they run out of ammunition and food before attacking in one fell swoop?"

Yun Xiao shook her head, "Rabbits still bite people when they are in a hurry, if they are really pushed to that point, they will kill them with red eyes."

After clicking on the desk, Yun Xiao then asked, "Have you arranged all the people I asked you to arrange?"

Changsun Wuchen nodded, "It's all arranged. 3 people will be led by my confidant lieutenant general. Our side will use the sound of arrows as a sign, and they will cooperate in the attack."

"Yeah." Yun Xiao nodded thoughtfully, "Choose any day, just call."

"Ah?" Changsun Wuchen felt that he might have misheard, so, is it so easy to fight a war?

Yun Xiao raised her eyebrows, "Isn't this all ready? With rockets and heavy crossbows, Kepler will definitely come to provoke again. When you pick a day when you are in a good mood, you can hit it with real swords and guns. Attack it if you don't understand it."

Yun Xiao looked at the bewildered grandson Wuchen, and explained in detail, "If Kepler attacks with the whole army, we will stand in a stalemate with them, and then issue the order, and then the soldiers outside the pass will rush to the pass. If he didn't attack with the whole army , when the rocket is fired, as many people come and eat as many people."

Yun Xiao frowned and looked at Changsun Wuchen, "You are a general and you want me to teach you how to fight?"

The eldest grandson Wuchen has a complex expression on his face. He is a general, but throughout history, he has never seen that general who fights like playing games, and chooses a good mood.

Chen Wei glanced at Changsun Wuchen sympathetically, with such an emperor, you are miserable too.

Changsun Wuchen looked at Yun Xiao with a complicated expression and saluted, "The minister stepped back to prepare his emotions..."

Yun Xiao nodded, "Go ahead, you don't need to tell me when you hit me, just watch."

Grandson Wuchen: "..."

Chen Gui: "..."

After Changsun Wuchen left, Chen Wei couldn't help asking, "You used to fight like this casually?"

Yun Xiao blinked, "I've never fought a war, this is the first time."

???

Didn't it say that Qin Emperor Yunxiao personally conquered Liaojiang...

"No, it's your first time fighting, just like this? Are you afraid of losing?" Chen Wei suddenly felt that Pingcheng was very dangerous.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Yun Xiao said indifferently, "There are rockets and heavy crossbows here, and the number of people on both sides is about the same, and our supplies are sufficient."

"This kind of battle situation where the opponent is coming, it is very difficult for you to lose."

"..." Chen Wei said unwillingly, "But the battle situation is always changing, and no one can guarantee that nothing will happen."

"Ang, I know, so I brought my eldest grandson Wuchen here, he's a general, to deal with emergencies." Yun Xiao said it as it should be.

Chen Gui: "..."

Emperor Qin's personal conquest of Liaojiang relied on her excellent eloquence to convince them to belong to them!

This is because Yun Xiao didn't hear it, if Yun Xiao heard it, she would really nod and say it seriously, that is to say, to belong!

Changsun Wuchen's mood adjusted quickly. On the third day after Yun Xiao came back, he heard the sound of horns from the gate of the city. It seemed that he wanted to have a good fight. Yun Xiao said that he didn't need to inform her, but It's also impossible to really not care, sitting in the yard with ears open and waiting for the sound of the arrow.

But all that was waiting was the sound of the troops withdrawing.

"What's going on?" Yun Xiao looked at the grandson Wuchen who came back to report and asked first.

The eldest grandson Wuchen looked solemn, "Kebler is very cunning, and he started to test it out. Seeing that he couldn't fight our army, he ordered to retreat, but he didn't retreat completely. He was stuck in the longest distance and confronted us."

"I visually checked the number of people coming from the opposite side. It seems that they are not all the Guangxia army. I was worried that they still had their hands at Shanping Pass, so they didn't shoot arrows hastily."

Yun Xiao nodded, "Then they are retreating now?"

Changsun Wuchen shook his head, "No, I camped at the same spot, and seemed to freeze there if I wanted to."

Yun Xiao's eyes widened, "With such a big heart, aren't you afraid that we will beat him?"

Changsun Wuchen cupped his fists and lowered his head, "I suspect it's a trap."

Yun Xiao had a playful look on his face, "Isn't everyone saying that Kepler is brave and foolhardy? I'm afraid there are some experts behind him for his sudden appearance."

Yun Xiao nodded at the table with her head down, and called after a while, "Number one."

Entering the room on the [-]st, he clasped his fists and saluted, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

"Tonight, you take the hidden guards to welcome the Guangxia army with rockets. You don't have to shoot into their garrison, as long as it's loud enough, you understand what I mean."

No. [-] took the order, "Yes!" Then he withdrew.

Yun Xiao turned her head to look at Changsun Wuchen again, and smiled showing a row of small white teeth, "After a while, you transfer all the soldiers on the city gate, and I will go up and take a look."

Changsun Wuchen looked at Yun Xiao's smile, and his scalp began to tingle. Every time Yun Xiao laughed like this, nothing good happened.

Yun Xiao looked at Changsun Wuchen's tone full of deep meaning, "This is the first time I came to Pingcheng, and I don't know much about Pingcheng. I heard that there are many century-old families in Pingcheng. I don't think anyone knows this place better than them. Why don't you tell them about Pingcheng? Please invite all the young talents from the family to introduce Pingcheng to me."

Changsun Wuchen looked up at Yun Xiao, and he knew that Yun Xiao would not let the family in Pingcheng go. Since she came to Pingcheng in person, it is impossible not to implement the New Deal.

The eldest grandson Wuchen retreated to prepare, while Yun Xiao strolled to find Chen Wei.

"Can you play the piano?"

Chen Wei didn't expect Yun Xiao to ask her this question.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Chen Wei's mother's piano skills are outstanding, and she is well-known throughout the West. Chen Wei has learned the piano since childhood, and her piano skills are not bad.

"That's right, go out with me tonight."

Chen Gui was puzzled, "May I ask what's the matter?"

Yun Xiao smiled mysteriously, "Go out and sing."

Chen Gui was even more puzzled, but Yun Xiao didn't say much.

As the sun was setting, the disciples of the famous new generation family in Pingcheng stood on the city wall full of doubts.

They were all "invited" by Changsun Wuchen. Changsun Wuchen politely went to each mansion to explain his intentions. Of course, he brought soldiers. The family has private soldiers, but they are not as good as the army. Disciples can only "go to the appointment" honestly.

When Yun Xiao went up to the city wall, the children of the aristocratic family had already been blown by the wind blowing from the Gobi, and the faces of the little boys were all red.

Chen Gui, who was holding the piano behind him, was taken aback when he saw so many people on the city wall, and his body froze even more when he saw a certain figure.

Yun Xiao raised her brows and looked over inconspicuously, and locked on to the figure that made Chen Wei "fluctuate". Seeing this, Yun Xiao secretly thought that it was interesting. It is not an exaggeration to say that this person looks like Pan An, but this person is However, Yun Xiao didn't dare to compliment him because of his temperament. In both eyes, he almost showed that he was dignified. Not only did the little boy not get popular, but the disciples of the aristocratic family even stood in a group around him.

It seems that the status is not low.

"See the emperor." The children of the aristocratic family knelt down and saluted.

Yun Xiao smiled, "Get up."

After Yun Xiao finished speaking, he began to look at the Guangxia Army who had already set up camp on the opposite side. The children of the aristocratic family got up one after another, looking at Yun Xiao just looking into the distance, not knowing what to do for a while, you looked at me and I looked at you and you didn't make a sound.

"What do you want to hear?" Chen Wei first broke the silence on the city wall.

Yun Xiao turned her head and said casually, "Oh, it's fine, you can play whatever you want."

The dark guard brought up the low table and small chair, and Chen Gui ignored the probing and doubtful eyes on him, sat down calmly, and started playing the piano without distraction.

Liang Zigu locked his eyes on Chen Wei's face, trying to read something from her expression.

It's only been half a month, and Chen Wei gave him a very strange feeling. If it wasn't for the familiar piano sound, he would have suspected that it wasn't Chen Wei. Also, she dared to speak to the emperor in that tone just now. What is the relationship between the two of them?

The more Liang Zigu thought about it, the more he felt uneasy, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the look he looked at Chen Gui gradually changed from doubt to dissatisfaction.

"looks good?"

Liang Zigu was staring at Chen Gui to express his dissatisfaction with his gaze, when suddenly the scene in front of him turned into a black robe embroidered with dark patterns in the shape of a dragon, and Yun Xiao's voice came from his ear.

"The emperor forgives the crime." Liang Zigu immediately lowered his head.

The corners of Yun Xiao's mouth hooked up, and he walked to the city wall, looking at the densely packed tents, the majestic Shanping Pass behind them, and the Gobi Gobi submerged in the horizon, Yun Xiao understood that the poets of the previous life came up and became very popular with poetry. What does it feel like, if I don't recite a poem at this time, I'm really sorry for the scenery in front of me.

I don't know what Chen Wei behind him is playing, but the sound of the piano is clanging, full of chilling meaning.

Yun Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, she doesn't know how to write poetry, but there is a poem from the predecessors that she thinks is particularly suitable for this time and place.

"In drunkenness, light up the lamp to look at the sword, and dream of blowing the corner of the company's camp. Eight hundred miles of subordinates are burned, fifty strings are turned outside the fortress, and soldiers are ordered in autumn."

"The horse is fast, and the bow is like a thunderbolt. It is a pity that it happened for nothing!"

Ever since Yun Xiao opened her mouth, only the sound of the piano was left on the entire city wall. There are no words of this style.

The children of the aristocratic family stood quietly, without saying a word.

"I'm still young, and I still have a lot of things I want to do, but after I don't think about it, my hair grows gray after everything. The aristocratic family is the pillar of my Great Qin. It should be to share your worries. You are right."

Yun Xiao's tone was normal, more like talking to himself.

The children of these aristocratic families are basically the heads of the next generation of each family. They have read poetry and books since they were young. They naturally understand the meaning of Yun Xiao's word. Afterwards, they became frightened, how could they not understand what Yun Xiao meant.

"I would like to share the worries for the emperor." The children of the aristocratic family said in unison.

Yun Xiao smiled easy-going, "That's good, the Gobi is very windy at night, everyone should go back and rest early."

"I'll take my leave." The disciples of the aristocratic family saluted and left. Liang Zigu took a deep look at Chen Wei and walked down the city wall first.

After all the disciples of the aristocratic family had left, Yun Xiao heard the sudden stuttering sound of the piano, and said jokingly, "Okay, why play when your mind is in a mess."

When Chen Wei heard the words, he suddenly withdrew his hand, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. Yun Xiao leaned in front of Chen Wei, his eyes lit up, and the fire of gossip in his heart began to blaze, "Come, come, tell me, what's going on, I'll help you give advice." !"

Chen Gui looked into the distance quietly, with a gloomy expression.
