Weicheng snow

The disciples did not expect to wait for such a long time, but in the end they only got such an answer, they all returned disappointed, but Yi Qingchen did not leave until all the idle people around him cleared up before turning to look at Mr. Dugu , and Mr. Dugu had already set his eyes on Yi Qingchen, seeing Yi Qingchen looking over, he smiled lightly and said, "You two, please come inside the tent."

As soon as Fang entered the commander's tent, he could see Yu Mu fiddling with something on the sand table. Yi Qingchen and Hua Shenchi walked over and saw that Yu Mu was clearing away the chess pieces on the sand table. Once he left Yaozhou today, this Yaozhou Your sand table will not be used for a long time.

Mr. Dugu followed in, saw Yu Mu was still cleaning up the sand table, and smiled lightly, "Shuai Yu, everyone is here, whether to punish or not, don't let it go."

Yu Mu glanced at a few people, continued to pack up the things at hand, and said calmly, "Punishment must be punished. If you don't punish, you can't convince the public. But the original intention is to save people, and you won't punish severely..."

Yi Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, Yu Mu packed up the things at hand, took out a bundle of scrolls from the bookshelf, and spread them out on the cleaned sand table, a map of southern Xinjiang appeared in front of them .

Putting his hands on the table, Yu Mu checked the map several times before pointing to one of them with Yi Qingchen and said, "I heard that Mr. Yi is from southern Xinjiang?" Yi Qingchen nodded, and Yu Mu said again, "Because Mr. Dugu has repeatedly guaranteed that the commander will allow you to come in, the terrain here is used for troops, if Mr. Yi were to arrange the troops, what would you do?"

Yi Qingchen took a rough look at the map, and he understood most of it in his heart, so he said truthfully, "Murong's army is far stronger than the Imperial Forest Army when using troops in southern Xinjiang. There is still a big difference between the mountains and the plains. Therefore, if you arrange your troops, you will definitely draw up tactics centered on the Murong family army."

Yu Mu didn't speak, Mr. Dugu just sat on the side shaking his folding fan, Yi Qingchen waited silently, hoping someone would answer a word, after a long while, Mr. Dugu said, "Don't be brave, Shuai Yu. What happened in the valley last night, why don't you talk about it like a gentleman in the same clothes."

Yi Qingchen showed a curious gaze, and Yu Muyu struggled for a long time before he let go and told about the capture of the valley last night.

It turns out that the attack last night was not smooth. Just as Yi Qingchen said, the Imperial Forest Army is used to fighting on the plains. Facing the terrain of the valley, the ability to adapt to changes will be greatly reduced, so even if the ones guarding the valley last night were just young men, The Royal Forest Army also fought very tight.

No matter how well-planned the original plan was, when climbing the valley, an accident still happened. A guard accidentally slipped and fell from the cliff, killing his life and injuring more than ten people. Not only that, but also alarmed the guards. The marrow-eating sect members on the cliff had plans to make waves suddenly, and the traces of the imperial forest army that had been slowly approaching to outflank were also exposed. In desperation, Yu Mu had to temporarily change an ambush into a strong attack, and forcibly fought up.

As we can see right now, Yu Mu won the victory by suppressing the number of people in the end, but he still lost a lot of people. Casualties could have been avoided in this battle.

Yu Mu was very worried about this, thinking that it was the result of his own improper thinking, "Although we have won the victory by relying on the number of people, but in the southern border, the advantage in numbers will no longer exist, and the terrain is also unfavorable to us. If something like this happened, it would be a huge loss.”

What made Yu Mu feel even more frustrating was that while he was fighting outside, his hometown was stabbed by the enemy. This is a great shame for a general who has experienced many battles. In addition, he lost his lieutenant some time ago. Yu Mu had already had deep doubts about his combat ability.

"When I was five years old, I was sent to the palace with Xiao Zhao, studied under the same master, learned martial arts together, and grew up together. Later, I was selected to join the Imperial Forest Army, while she stayed in Da Nei." Yu Yu When Mu talked about this, he sighed helplessly, "In terms of resourcefulness, I am inferior to Xiao Zhao since I was a child, and in terms of force, Xiao Zhao is hard to beat me, but after many fights, the victory between me and Xiao Zhao is almost [-]-[-]. Xiao Zhao always said that I have no brains and only have brute force. If I want to lead the army to go out, I will suffer a big loss if I don’t have a lieutenant general who can advise me. After many years of victorious campaigns, Ruan Yu is always there to advise me. Now Ruan Yu is no longer here. , Am I no longer suitable for this command?"

Yi Qingchen listened to these words one by one, feeling that something was wrong with Yu Mu's state, he was silent for a while, and looked thoughtfully at Mr. Dugu, who was sitting alone beside him. Smiled at the latter, obviously didn't say anything, but Yi Qingchen suddenly realized Mr. Dugu's intention.

Let Wuliang and Yeluo enter the camp to make trouble, it is not that Mr. Dugu can't control it, but he deliberately didn't control it, the purpose is to make Yu Mu suffer, as for why Yu Mu should be hit, Yi Qingchen can also understand Guess out of ten, because Yu Mu has always been stubborn, except for the words of the lieutenant back then, he would not listen to other people's opinions.

After the death of the lieutenant general, he has been suppressing his emotions, and his condition is very poor. He will go straight to the southern border after leaving Yaozhou, and every battle after that will not be tolerated, so it is extremely necessary to suppress Yu Mu here. Let him completely collapse, break and stand up.

If it fails because of this, such a commander will not be able to lead the army to victory, Mr. Dugu will think of a way to change the commander then.

The longer he gets along with Mr. Dugu, the more Yi Qingchen can understand why Murong Qian chose this person as his teacher in the first place, and only then looked at Mr. Dugu meaningfully, before turning his gaze away, looking at Yu Mudao, "So why doesn't Shuai Yu consider choosing another military division? I think Mr. Dugu is very suitable."

Mr. Dugu laughed lightly when he heard the words, Yu Mu glanced at the former, shook his head and said, "Mr. Dugu is indeed far-sighted, but he is not in the same way as me, and his ideas cannot be integrated at all."

Yi Qingchen nodded understandingly, "Choosing a military adviser is not a one-day matter, you have to meet someone who is destined, and after a long time of running-in, during this period, why not listen to the opinions of people around you and make your own decision?"

"I think what Mr. Yi said is true." Mr. Dugu echoed, "Why don't you throw away these burdens and think about how he would decide on this matter if Vice General Ruan was still around?"

Yu Mu fell into deep thought for a long time, walked to the cabinet, took out a brocade box from inside, sat back on the main seat, stroked the surface of the box, raised her head and frowned thinking.

For a moment, Yi Qingchen actually saw a young man in silver armor standing beside Yu Mu with his hands behind his back, with a gentle face and a light smile. Smiling politely, Yi Qingchen stared at the brocade box in Yu Mu's hand with a complicated expression for a moment, roughly guessing what was in it, and sighed helplessly, not wanting to say more.

Yu Mu thought for a long time, and after a long time, there were guards outside the tent asking for orders to enter the carriage. Yu Mu just sat up straight, looked at Yi Qingchen and said, "Young Master Yi, you are Xiao Zhao's friend, and you belong to Major General Murong. Elder brother, he is also recommended by Mr. Dugu..." Yi Qingchen thumped in his heart, and the next moment, Yu Mu really said, "Can you take the position of this military adviser for now?"

Even if Yi Qingchen wanted to refuse, Yu Mu said first, "If he refuses, it will be a bit difficult to take the members of the Food Marrow Sect back to the camp..."

Yi Qingchen heard the threatening meaning in Yu Mu's words, and turned his head to look at Hua Shenchi's complexion in confusion. Hua Shenchi didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, as if he didn't exist at all. Chen looked at himself, and looked like he was asking for help. Just now, he reached out and rubbed Yi Qingchen's head, and said softly, "As long as you don't get involved in danger or participate in the war, you can do whatever you want."

Yi Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said in command, "I will... follow orders."

When he raised his eyes again, Yu Mu's originally tightly locked brows had relaxed a lot, and the young man standing beside him also bowed to Yi Qingchen gratefully, and mouthed, "The general will trouble you son in the future."

On the way back from the handsome tent to Huachenchi's camp, Yi Qingchen held the military commander's token wrapped in silk and satin, but he still didn't remember it. He subconsciously felt that he should be plotted by Mr. Dugu. Where did this plot begin? Although it is unknown, but fortunately the result is not too bad, he can still do it if he just makes suggestions.

And he also made an agreement with Yu Mu in three chapters, requesting that he must never reveal his identity as a military advisor to the outside world. After all, if the Marrow Sect wants to break the South Marching Alliance from the inside of the camp, the top priority to eradicate should be the high-ranking members and military advisors of each sect. , and the high-ranking members of various sects possess unique skills and are often surrounded by guards. In comparison, I have neither the ability to show it nor many guards. It seems that it is not too easy to kill.

Back in the tent, there was a carriage waiting outside the tent, Shen Sheng, Shen Yihe would stand in front of Hua Chenchi's tent, if they would see Hua Chenchi and Yi Qingchen coming back, they said first, "Elder, young master, we All the luggage has been moved! If you have anything that needs to be moved, just ask!"

Shen Yi raised her hand and tapped Ruhui's head, and said with a wry smile, "How did you talk to the elder? It's not big or small."

Ruhui stuck out his tongue, Yi Qingchen chuckled when he saw this, went to open the curtain of the camp tent, and said to everyone, "Go ahead, sit down and talk."

Yi Qingchen invited a few people to sit down, poured tea, and then went to the bookcase to bundle some small things together, while Hua Shenchi sorted out his medicine list in front of the bookcase, because he still needed to accept Yaozhou medicine this morning. Residents' consultations, so some things can't be cleaned up for the time being.

Seeing this, Shen Yi was quite worried, "Eldest brother, I will go for you for today's medical consultation. Some time ago, the Medicine Sect was busy, but I was hiding away, and I feel really sorry."

While arranging the books in hand, Hua Shenchi said indifferently, "So much leisure that you are exhausted?"

Shen Yi paused while holding the teacup, and said awkwardly, "However, checking the dead body is really not that busy. The reason why I fell ill is all my fault that I didn't arrange a good time for rest and meals."

Yi Qingchen tied up the few small items on hand, held them in his arms, and said with a smile, "You have just recovered from your illness, so take a rest when it's time to rest, you will have a lot of busy days in the future."

Shen Yi buried her head even lower, "The corpse can be inspected faster, it's all because I can't adjust my mood, I'm always distracted..."

Ruhui shook Shen Yi's arm worriedly, and said in relief, "Senior Sister, I really don't blame you, if it were us, we wouldn't be much better than you, you've done a good job."

Shen Sheng held his chin, drank the tea in the cup, and said with a smile, "Who doesn't have any troubles? If you break yourself down, the gain will not be worth the loss. You are the second senior sister, and you should always keep these principles in mind." Forget it, raised his eyes to look at Hua Chenchi, and asked for praise, "Isn't that right, senior brother?"

Hua Shenchi withdrew his meaningful gaze, and gave a faint "hmm".

Yi Qingchen bundled up the small items one by one, Hua Shenchi also sorted out the books that don't need to be carried into the carriage for the time being, Shen Sheng, Shen Yi and Ruhui will help carry the rest of the things, and when everything is tidied up, Ruhui propped himself up on the table, gulped down his tea, and gasped, "Next time I will make a Yanjia that can carry bookcases and beds!"

After they laughed, Hua Shenchi, Shen Sheng, and Ruhui were going to prepare for the consultation of the residents of Yaozhou. Hua Shenchi was worried about letting Yi Qingchen stay alone, so he asked Shen Yi to stay with him on the pretext of recovering from a serious illness. Waiting here, Shen Yi didn't refuse, waited until Hua Shenchi and the others had gone away, just now sipped the tea in the cup and sighed, "I really envy you, Mr. Yi..."

Yi Qingchen was squatting on the ground with Shen Yi's back to pick up the leftovers, and said with a light smile, "Why do you envy me?"

Shen Yi said casually, "Being able to fall in love with senior brother, even if you cut off your sleeves, there is no one around you to obstruct and oppose."

Yi Qingchen looked back at the expression on Shen Yi's face at the moment, and said thoughtfully, "Are you thinking about Ruying?"

Yi Qingchen wanted to be more tactful, but when he saw Shen Yi staring at the tea in the cup with a worried look, he knew that the longer this matter dragged on, the more knotted he would be.

Shen Yi squeezed the teacup tightly when she heard the words, and sighed, "Daddy, because of his fame and fortune, he got involved in the disputes of high-ranking officials and ruined the whole family. Pushed to this point, although my mother said she could understand, I still can't forgive such a father. I just wanted to be an ordinary girl since I was a child, learn from my father's skills, inherit the chess game, and marry a well-matched person... ...In my heart, I really just want such an ordinary life..."

"As soon as you enter the Hou family, it's as deep as the sea, and ruthless is the emperor's house. Every day, you have to worry about whether you have said or done wrong things, whether your unintentional actions have caused their misunderstanding..." Shen Yi sighed a long time, "I was also careless at first, it's really tiring to live like this..."

Yi Qingchen packed up the sundries on hand, washed his hands, walked to Shen Yi and sat down, resting his chin and quietly listening to Shen Yi's explanation of his thoughts, "Mother handed my hand to senior brother's hand." For a moment, I had a feeling of being abandoned by that family. I cried for a long time on the road and couldn't understand my mother's behavior. If my father didn't come back, she and I could still support each other and go on, but she chose Leave me like this..."

"I cried for a long time, and I was tired from crying. The Lingshan Mountain has also arrived. The senior brother took me to the disciple's room and asked Sister Duanyue to teach me how to wear a disciple's uniform. She personally led me up and down the Lingshan Mountain and told me that in the future I will What should be done, what should not be done, and later, I did what they said..."

"Although I always feel that something is missing in my heart, I still live happily in Lingshan. I try my best to make myself ordinary, avoiding every opportunity to be outstanding, and even the entrance exam, I deliberately add more I added some medicine to make the quality of the medicine worse, in order to make the elders stop paying so much attention to me..."

Shen Yi lowered her head even lower, "But after all, I can't escape the eyes of the senior brother. He talked to me several times, but he never exposed me. I am very grateful to the senior brother. It was his protection that allowed me to To be able to live an ordinary life for so many years..."

"It wasn't until after the Marrow Cult attacked Lingshan and a series of things happened that I realized... maybe I should do something for the elder brother. I can't be so selfish. The elder brother said 'outstanding talent It exists to protect the people around me, so I will compete for the position of the second senior sister..."

"The pressure is really great, but I have to do something for the big brother..."

"I'm very tired from doing it, and sometimes it's thankless. I was talked about by my disciples. I once wanted to jump off the cliff... But when I think about the elder brother who has endured it for so many years... ...Hahaha...what are my sufferings worth?"

Shen Yi covered her head and let out a long sigh, "Suddenly one day, when I was standing on the edge of the cliff in a daze, Shen Sheng brought a boy over and said to me, 'No one in the whole Lingshan can control him, I really can't help it, why don't you try?' I thought at the time, wouldn't those who can't control them all be kicked out of the school? But when I saw the young man's eyes, there was arrogance, contempt, alienation, and Desperation was deeper than mine, so I inexplicably accepted Shen Sheng's request..."

"Now that I think about it, the reason why he was sent to Lingshan should be that the emperor hoped that his departure would reduce the threat to the eldest princess. In fact, he was also the one abandoned by his father..."

There was a slight smile on the corner of Shen Yi's lips, "I take him by my side every day, try to encourage him, untie him, and hope that he can untangle his heart... Now that I think about it, this is actually a I subconsciously want to save myself, right? He is really powerful, handsome, good at swordsmanship, good at medicine, and very steady in doing things. He can also prepare what I need first. Gradually, I found myself like Some can't do without him..."

After Shen Yi finished speaking, she put the teacup on the table and said with a wry smile, "But he is not only a prince, he is also younger than me. Compared with him, I am like a joke, so I can only pretend that I don't care about everything." I don’t know, just stay with him in peace like this...But it’s impossible after all, everything will end, so I can only be cruel and drive him away..."

"But after being separated for so long, I still can't let it go. I didn't think about it often, but after seeing him in Weicheng, my regrets continued unabated. I wanted to talk to him, but I was afraid that I would lose my mind while talking. cry out..."

"He is the prince. In the future, he will marry a strange woman who is well-matched. This woman can help him handle political affairs. She should also have power in the family and can strengthen his position. I have nothing..."

After saying this, ripples fainted in the tea, Yi Qingchen did not expect that Shen Yi, who has always come to look at the heartless, would be as careful as a friend, after thinking about so many twists and turns, no wonder the world always says that a woman has a heart Unfathomable.

But most of what Yi Qingchen can think of, Shen Yi has thought of. She is very thoughtful and realistic. Although it is cruel, it is the most sensible way. Although it is painful, long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain. In comparison, He and Hua Shenchi are indeed very lucky to come, at least they haven't encountered a situation where they have to part ways.

No amount of relief is futile, because the girl has already thought clearly, she just needs a place to talk, so Yi Qingchen didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and patted her on the back, hoping that she would get rid of all this sooner. lay down.

"Young master Yi, have you seen a prescription from senior brother? It says... huh?" Ruhui rushed into the tent, confused by the situation in front of him, and could only keep looking at him. Yi Qingchen winked, Yi Qingchen shook his head, walked out of the tent with Ruhui, and went to the carriage to find the prescription.

Because the carriage was a little far away from the tent, Ruohui dared to ask Yi Qingchen, "Why are you crying, Senior Sister?"

While searching for the prescription, Yi Qingchen said helplessly, "Hey, don't ask."

Ruhui rolled his eyeballs, and asked tentatively, "Isn't it because of Ruying?" Yi Qingchen's reaction was obvious, "I knew it."

Yi Qingchen asked subconsciously, "How do you know?"

Ruhui curled his lips, showing a somewhat distressed expression, "Because when I came... I just saw Ruying running away from here... I wanted to ask him to come in and sit around, But he ran too fast... didn't stop shouting..."

Yi Qingchen opened his mouth in astonishment, and immediately felt that this might be some kind of fate, those words that could not be said, were all said for her by God, as for what will happen in the future, it is not up to them, the bystanders Worry about it.
