The emperor is always bullied and crying [wearing books]

On the day of Pan Yu's departure, Gu Xuantete went to see him off. The little things that he hadn't collected deliberately during the year filled a box, and they were given to Song Chen by Pan Yu's help.

Song Chen's eyesight is bad, and he hasn't written to him in this year.

The battle was busy, and he didn't send him anything.

The thoughts in my heart are already like hunger and thirst.

But he had to stay in Northern Xinjiang, after all, it was hard for him to gain a firm foothold in Northern Xinjiang.

As for what Pan Yu said, the war in the north was about to be settled, but Gu Xuan didn't think so. The northern barbarians have been cultivating their lives for decades, and this battle has been going on for a year.

Although the northern barbarians were defeated and retreated last time, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. The northern barbarians will not let it go, and I believe they will make a comeback soon.

After Pan Yu bid farewell to the group of people, after walking for a while, when he was taking a break, he asked his servants to open the box that Gu Xuan had given to Song Chen.

There is a mess of everything in the box.

Even yogurt lumps and edamame that smell worse than porridge are prepared.There are also sea buckthorn fruit and royal jelly here...

Pan Yu looked around casually, but didn't see anything valuable, so he covered it.

Without any valuables, would Song Chen like these messy things?

This is really bullying Song Chen blindly, otherwise he guessed that Song Chen would never like Gu Xuan.Where is it like him, who gave him a piece of topaz last time, this time he plans to give him a good wild horse colt bought with a lot of money.

Gu Xuan didn't know that Pan Yu had two faces.

He gave Pan Yu off on the front foot, and then went back to carve his sympathetic pendant on the back foot.

Two months later, Pan Yu returned to the capital, first repaired it, and then took the box of gifts to Song Chen. Of course, he didn't say that the box was prepared by Gu Xuan, only that he prepared it himself. , and then put his own gift in the last appearance.

Song Chen asked Yuan Bao to take steamed buns to eat with fermented bean curd, and said while eating, "I don't want horses. I can't see, so I don't want to ride horses. Besides, I'm allergic to cats, dogs, and other furry animals. I'm so quiet here, but birds I don’t even have one, I’m afraid I’m allergic to Maomao. Pan Yu, thank you for your horse, you can raise it yourself!”

When Pan Yu came back, Song Chen was very happy. He asked for a mouthful of steamed buns dipped in fermented bean curd. Song Chen's eyes widened involuntarily, and he said vaguely, "It's delicious—Pan Yu, you really understand me."

Pan Yu was so smelly that she wanted to vomit.

Looking at Song Chen who was eating deliciously: "..."

On the other side of northern Xinjiang, although Fenghuo Pass is remote, with few people and a large land, the atmosphere of the New Year in Fenghuo Pass is still very strong.However, when the whole family was reunited for the New Year's Eve dinner, the northern barbarians attacked Fenghuo Pass again by surprise.

This time, the city gate of Fenghuo Pass was lost, and the iron cavalry stepped through Fenghuo Pass, and the team stationed at Fenghuo Pass was rushed to pieces.The northern barbarians took advantage of the trend and went south. As soon as the Fenghuo pass was lost, they immediately went south to ten pass cities, and all of them fell in just three months.

In another two months, two important border cities with a population of several 10 fell. Guan Xichang would rather die than surrender, and finally died in battle at the gate of the city.

Gu Xuan's heart injury did not heal from the last time, and he brought Wang Dazhuang to gather the remnants all the way, and went deep into the grassland.

The northern barbarians trampled through the mountains and rivers, and the officials in Kyoto were panicked. Most of them asked the old emperor to cross the river and go down to avoid the northern barbarians' iron hooves.Only a few people asked the old emperor to stay in order to boost the morale of the army.

There is a lot of noise in the courtroom every day, and there is no serious idea.I can only ask the soldiers guarding the city to give some strength.

At the same time, Gu Xuan successfully entered the interior of the grassland, where only a bunch of old and weak women and children remained.

While Gu Xuan intends to "encircle Wei and save Zhao", he is also preparing to make hot weapons.

The northern barbarian general who received the news turned his horse's head back on the spot on the spot to hack Gu Xuan to death.Others were extremely angry but did not move, to see what the leader thought.

The idea of ​​the leader is...

It didn't take long for Gu Xuan to receive a few boxes of ears, eyes and noses that had been marinated with lime powder.

Gu Xuan was silent for a long time at that moment, and then sent a few boxes of their specialties, dried meat strips, and sprinkled a lot of chili noodles.

finally!The leader of the northern barbarians said: "I can take this Daqian territory for the first time or for the second time, but if my hometown is gone, there will be nothing left!"

So they temporarily stopped going south, and sent thousands of people back to the prairie to strangle Gu Xuan.

There are really a lot of saltpeter mines in northern Xinjiang. Gu Xuan used the local saltpeter mines to make medicine. That day, it was as if thunder exploded, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Tragic and abnormal.

The [-] troops of the northern barbarians immediately turned their heads when they got the news, and wanted to deal with Gu Xuan who came from north to south. Gu Xuan broke out with thousands of people.

The imperial court named him the Grand Marshal of the Army and Horses, and commanded the three armies to resist the northern barbarians.

It took more than two years to recover more than a dozen checkpoints including Fenghuo Pass, and regained two cities with a population of several 10.

At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Xuan's side Wang Dazhuang, Cao Wei and more than [-] cronies gathered together to look at the sand table.Wang Dazhuang said to Gu Xuan: "General, the Beiman finally retreated now, and we can take a breath."

Gu Xuan didn't speak.

The others didn't speak either.

Finally, the candles burned one by one, and I don't know how long it took. Gu Xuan raised his head, with the burning flames of the candles in his eyes, and said: "Prince and general, would you rather have a kind?"

Wang Dazhuang was extremely astonished.

The rest of the cronies stared at Gu Xuan with burning eyes.

Then he stood up and knelt down on one knee in front of Gu Xuan, "I am willing to die for the general!"

Wang Dazhuang, who has never read a book and does not know how to read, only followed Gu Xuan through life and death, who was able to use his head to carry a knife for Gu Xuan, and his mouth trembled violently for a long time.

"Your...Young master." Are you planning to rebel?

Gu Xuan looked at Wang Dazhuang, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "How many times have you blocked open guns and hidden arrows for me with your chest and back? You can't count it yourself, right? What? Is it your life that is worthless or mine?" Gu Xuan's life is worthless? When we return to the capital in two years, don't you want to be Ding Beibo? Could it be that the days when Ye Xiang fell in the East Courtyard are worth remembering?"

Wang Dazhuang's eyes were red, and he knelt down with a puff.

How dare he think?

The son's father, Gu Lizhao, is also Ding Beibo, how can he be Ding Beibo?

Gu Xuan let out a long sigh and said, "Finally, the clouds have opened to see the moon."

A few days later, Gu Xuan sent the Tongxin Pei to Pan Yu and asked Pan Yu to forward it to Song Chen on his behalf.

-

After signing the armistice treaty with the northern barbarians, Gu Xuan granted him a first-class Duke, who enjoys the honor of a king, was granted a purple coat and a yellow belt, a mansion, and acres of land.

It is not an exaggeration to attract the attention of the world.

But when the people in the capital were waiting for Gu Xuan, an upstart, to return to the capital to thank the emperor, Gu Xuan did not go back. Land, which lasted a year, was killed to the imperial court of the northern barbarians, the royal family and the Yi family.

Following the example of the Tang Dynasty in his original world, two divisions were set up to govern.Incorporate the northern barbarians into the territory of Dagan, pay taxes every year, and open up business routes to communicate with each other.

At the same time, within the scope of more than a dozen cities under the jurisdiction of the lost land and military power without decentralization, the Four Books and Five Classics were changed to Chinese subjects, and astronomy, geography, chemistry, biology, history, mathematics, foreign languages... subjects were added, and a new government affairs system was established...

The people in Kyoto were dumbfounded - Gu Xuan, is this the opposite?Or, no?

But regardless of whether it is against or not, the balance between the imperial court and Gu Xuan is very delicate.

On one side is the imperial court with weak soldiers and weak horses. If they really want to fight, they can only go south to the south of the river.

On one side, there are strong soldiers and horses, and the entire grassland is supplied, and there are more than a dozen city checkpoints, which can be attacked or defended by Gu Xuan.

The imperial court was a little numb.

In the imperial palace, in the brightly lit imperial study, Eunuch Gao said to the old emperor, "Don't worry, the emperor, the nine clans of the Gu family are with us, even if Gu Xuan wanted to rebel, he would not dare to act rashly."

The fourth prince who originally lived in the palace, and the fifth prince Song Chen who had not been back to the palace for a long time were also there.

Originally, it was not Song Chen's turn to do this kind of thing, but at that time the northern barbarians were about to attack the capital, and the emperor was struggling between fleeing and not fleeing.

It was Song Chen who took the initiative to say that he was willing to guard the capital as the prince to avoid low morale.

The emperor's imperial decree to make Song Chen the crown prince was issued, but the northern barbarians stopped attacking and turned their horses around.

However, golden mouth and jade words are not child's play.

Therefore, Song Chen is now a crown prince with no reputation.None of the princes sitting here looked straight at him.

The emperor worried: "Really? Will he really not rebel just because the Gu family is there?"

Eunuch Gao also wanted to swear to comfort the emperor.

However, Song Chen said: "Father, Gu Sihe... the life before Dingbeibo Mansion was worse than that of a dog. If he rebelled and came to the capital, to put it bluntly, he would be the first to be hanged." The absolute surname of the one who died at the city gate was Gu."

Everyone was shocked physically and mentally.

Speechless!

The old emperor let out a long sigh, exhausted physically and mentally, feeling powerless and exhausted.

"Is there no one he values ​​in the whole of Kyoto who can be controlled by us?"

Everyone was speechless.

Song Chen thought in his heart: Compared with the world, even the person you love the most can't stop him from ascending to the top, right?

When the discussion in the Yushufang did not yield any results, and the fear of Gu Xuan could only be increased for no reason, and everyone dispersed, Song Chen returned to the bedroom.

Yuan Bao handed him a cup of tea, and after he took a sip, Yuan Bao said to him, "Just now, Imperial Physician Pan came over."

Song Chen: "Really? When did you leave?"

Yuan Bao said: "Waiting for you for a while, I don't know when you will come back, so I left."

Song Chen: "Did you leave anything?"

Yuan Bao said: "No. However, I heard that Imperial Physician Pan is a bit tight recently. Last year I borrowed money from you to provide free medical consultations and medicines to the common people in Kyoto. Now I am afraid that I will have to..."

Before finishing speaking, Song Chen lowered his eyes, raised his hand to interrupt Yuan Bao, and said, "I see, you can give him a box of bank notes tomorrow, 2000 taels. I only have so much .”

Yuan Bao was a little unhappy, he pursed his mouth and then curled it.

Then he reluctantly answered yes.

Ever since Pan Yu gave His Highness a piece of concentric jade, His Highness and Pan Yu have been extremely close.If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people in the palace, His Highness would be accompanied by palace people in everything he did. His Highness and Pan Yu didn't know what was going on.

Yuan Bao felt uncomfortable.

An imperial doctor, why do you deliberately get close to His Highness and charm His Highness just by taking His Highness's pulse?

To be an imperial doctor is not to study medical skills well, but to hook up with His Highness.He always borrows money from His Highness, and then goes to free clinics to administer medicines to fulfill his good reputation.

Now who in the capital doesn't praise Pan Yu's benevolence?

Who wouldn't praise Pan Yu for his superb medical skills?

Yuan Bao gets angry when he thinks about it.

After Song Chen put down his teacup, he took out a piece of Concentric Jade from his bosom. This piece of jade was in the shape of a ring, and the disc inside could be moved.

Song Chen felt a little melancholy when touching this piece of jade.

Ever since Pan Yu revealed his identity to him and gave him a token of love, Song Chen felt that his love for Pan Yu seemed to fade little by little.

He didn't know why.

In short, after being with Pan Yu, no matter what he did with him, Song Chen felt that it was no longer the same as before.

He even wondered if he just liked the taste of meeting under the moon, smelling the fragrance of gardenias, and talking freely.

Now there is no such sneakiness, but everything has faded away?

Song Chen shook his head lightly, telling himself not to think too much, love will tend to be as flat as family affection in the end.Want to open up a little bit.

Putting aside the fact that Pan Yu wanted to borrow money from him again, Song Chen couldn't help but think of Gu Si.

Even though Song Chen couldn't see it, in getting along with Gu Si, Song Chen always felt that Gu Si should be an extremely bright gentleman.

Such a person, he has finally reached the pinnacle of power, and no one can make him kneel down to be a slave and a dog anymore.

However, the imperial court will be very jealous, right?Alas...the world will have a peaceful day?Even a blind man can't stop worrying.

Once Gu Si comes back, the Gu family will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

Not only Song Chen thought so, even the fourth prince and others thought so too.

But just when everyone thought that if Gu Xuan rebelled, the first one who couldn't afford to go around would be Gu Xuan's own family, but the whole Dingbeibo mansion didn't think so.

The old lady and Gu Lizhao felt that Gu Xuan was a very filial child, and even though he had a delicate relationship with the imperial court, he would not rebel.The great man's contribution lies in the country, he just made the choice that a man who wants to make a contribution will make.

Zhao Wenjia felt that Gu Xuan had already been recorded as his son-in-law, so he would call her a mother. Even if he treated him badly, he should abide by ethics and respect her.

The other concubines in Dingbeibo's mansion are different. They always feel that Gu Xuan is now a first-class prince, and they can also have shelter in the future.

Everyone has their own thoughts, and there are so many.

But in Gu Xuan's heart, these people are irrelevant.

The person sent out to scout for him has returned, and he doesn't give much hope.After all, many people have been sent out before, and a lot of manpower and material resources have been spent, but in the end there is still no good news.

However, the person who came back told him good news—the prairie was still going north, on Damingyue Mountain, and some herdsmen had vaguely seen Chongming lotus blooming in the glacier rift.

The medicine of Chongming lotus is an earthen prescription of the northern barbarians. The leaves are green, the flowers are spherical, and the flowers are purple.It is used to treat animal eyes that get angry.

It is rumored that in the snow mountain, there is a top-quality Chongming lotus with leaves as bright as ice flakes and spherical flowers like frost flowers, which can restore sight to the blind.

Gu Xuan thought it might be a mutated herb.

And... I don't know if it's useful or not.You have to find it first, then try it out.

Gu Xuandang even planned to set off.

It took a month and a half, and finally arrived at Damingyue Mountain.The cold wind is precipitous, the ice and snow are capped, and a glacier is split between Damingyue Mountain and the mountains below, and there is still a faint blue light coming out of the glacier at night.From time to time, there was the sound of avalanche snow and collapsing stones and ice.The wind whimpered like a ghost crying.

This rift valley glacier is not easy to walk.

Too dangerous.

It's still night!

But the ordinary Chongming lotus only blooms in the middle of the night, and it will have a little bitter taste.I don't know if the Chongming lotus here still retains this habit.

Wang Dazhuang said to Gu Xuan: "My lord, let me take some people there, it's too dangerous here."

A slightly louder sound might cause an avalanche, and even the slightest movement in the rift here would cause stones, ice, or collapse. In short, the risk factor is too high to allow Gu Xuan to take risks.

Gu Xuan waved his hand and said, "I'll just bring one or two people in. The more people there are, the easier it is to cause a collapse."

Wang Dazhuang refused: "It's the same if I go!"

Gu Xuan shook his head: "I'm sensitive to the taste of medicinal materials, I will get twice the result with half the effort, and you will get twice the result with half the effort. Besides, if it collapses, you can come in quickly to rescue."
