Get on the wrong sedan chair and marry the right wolf

A man arrived on a horse, and the raised iron hoof smashed the barrier under the chest of the leader of the southern border, and crushed the soft flesh and blood without the protection of the ribs into the soil under the city of Longxi.

"The main general of Southern Border is dead, why don't you just catch him without a fight?!"

Qin Guangmo reined in the horse and the sound of the horse was like a bell, as if it shook the Longxi City.While shouting the words, he quickly drew out the arrow behind his back and put it on the bowstring, and shot/shot decisively.The three feathered arrows chased after the figure who grabbed the cantilever rope and quickly climbed towards the city wall.The moment the arrow pierced the enemy's chest, Wei Yueyan also jumped onto the city wall neatly.

The defenses on the city wall were already weak, and Wei Yueyan broke into the backyard of the farm like a jackal when it came up. A group of armored Southern Xinjiang soldiers seemed panicked like farm poultry, but they were still somewhat stronger than poultry, critical At the critical moment, he knew how to form a formation to surround Wei Yueyan.The two lieutenants bound by the end of the unmanned cantilever decisively cut off the ropes on their bodies and fell back to the ground, grabbing the horses and rushing to kill.Wei Yueyan didn't bother to take care of them, threw away the two spear shafts that she had chopped off in the middle, and took out the soft sword wrapped around her waist and held it in her hand.Just when she was caught by the tiger-toothed halberd at a critical moment, it was she who cut off the spear/spear decisively with one palm, and split her hands and turned her wrists to cut off a pair of arms of the opponent neatly.

On the battlefield on the border of Great Xia, everyone had heard the name of Wei Yueyan. Even if they had a city wall, facing Wei Yueyan, they could only say that there was only a pile of earth and stones neatly piled up.Wei Yueyan twisted the tip of the sword with one hand and wrapped it around his wrist twice, and looked at the Southern Xinjiang soldiers who surrounded him tightly, with a bit of inappropriate leisure.

The blood droplets splashed on the face during the fight slowly slid down, soaking the dry lips as if a dab of good cinnabar was touched, but this brilliant red color had a light but pungent fishy smell, very much like her The arc drawn by the corners of her lips is reserved but sinister, unrestrained and arrogant.

The twinkling red lotus blooms from the end of hell and spreads all the way to the world, blood bursts from the hot cavity and splashes on the crimson cloak and disappears instantly, leaving only speckled deep marks.The setting sun covered the corpses like blood, and the smoke-burning city finally ended a battle that had been waiting for three months.

In other words, it was a one-sided killing.

The remaining two lieutenants in southern Xinjiang were considered figures, leading a group of remnants to fight their way out of the shackles and flee towards the main city of southern Xinjiang.Yang Zisu led the troops to pursue and was stopped by Wei Yueyan.

"Don't chase the poor." Wei Yueyan blew his whistle, and Pang Yanju neighed cheerfully, and ran up to Wei Yueyan with a "da da da".

"General, both lieutenant generals of the enemy army are here. If you don't pursue it, what's the difference from letting the tiger go back to the mountain?" Yang Zisu was obviously dissatisfied, and took two steps forward with the rein in hand.

"Yes, General." A soldier beside Yang Zisu agreed, "There is wilderness outside the city, and the enemy army can't set up an ambush at all. Why don't we take advantage of the victory and pursue!"

Wei Yueyan stroked the mane of Layan Ju, "So what if both lieutenants are here? It's not just a mob. The besieged city ran out of food in March, morale was low for a long time, and after another day of fighting, there were heavy casualties. Already exhausted, if you keep chasing in this state, before you can capture the enemy, you will be killed by the Jedi."

"That's right, the enemy army has nowhere to go. If they continue to pursue, they will definitely fight back. What's more, our mission is to recover the lost land. The people in the city have yet to be appeased, so there is no need to waste our troops." Qin Guangmo spoke from the side, and finally wanted this group. Taking advantage of the wind of victory and pursuit, he pressed down.

The so-called bandits are like a comb, soldiers are like a grate, and officials are like a shave.However, Wei Yueyan's rule was extremely strict, and there was almost no incident of oppressing the people. The only incident was when a certain important person in Jinling City arranged for a gilded young master to fight in the military camp. The innocent body of a civilian girl.After being cut off by Wei Yueyan on the spot, there has never been any bad news about violating military discipline.

Wei Yueyan captured Longxi City and rescued the people, allowing them to recuperate, and his reputation in the field was extremely high for a while.

Qianli Yunyan fluttered into the sky with the good news of the border crossing. When it was halfway through the flight, it suddenly shook and disappeared in a mysterious forest.

Jinling, Mansion of the Generals of the Twelve Guards

The moment Ling Qiufan saw Zhan Jin stumbling in, the white jade hibiscus hairpin that had just been removed from the bun shattered on the ground.

The most worrying thing finally happened.

"Ma'am, ma'am, please slow down!" Lu Chen, who quickly redressed Ling Qiufan's makeup, held a cloak in his hand and chased after the madam who was walking towards the gate, always looking for a chance to put the cloak on her shoulders However, Ling Qiufan hadn't even straightened the top of his body, and Luo Chang's corner was scratched by the flowers and branches by the courtyard wall because he walked in a hurry, so he didn't have time to replace it, and it was broken in the wind like a butterfly with a broken wing. Dancing, every part of her body showed that this lady who was not dressed neatly and did not go out of the house on weekdays was all messed up.

Zhan Jin also hurriedly followed Ling Qiufan, the sword at her waist kept bumping into her thighs so that she had to hold her waist the whole time, "Ma'am, Mrs. Tang hasn't been added to the carriage yet, so please slow down. "

"It's unnecessary if you don't add it." Ling Qiufan said quickly, walked around Shiping and walked to the gate of the General's Mansion, took the cloak from Lu Shen's hand with one hand, and before he had time to wrap it, he was already out of the gate, stepped on the mat and got into the carriage , Zhan Jin gave a few instructions to Lvchen and then jumped into the carriage to urge the coachman to get on the road quickly.

The rotation of the wheels brought up countless dust, Ling Qiufan stretched out his hand to hold down the wind-blown car curtain, her heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the valley, listening to the bustling streets outside the car, she suddenly felt as if everything she was experiencing was unreal .

The geese startled, and the evening smoke sank.

Suddenly surprised, autumn is already deep.

Minister of Justice

"Master Shang, go slowly, my lord has said that he will come to the door to make an apology in the future."

The old housekeeper of the Shangshu Mansion saw off the fifth group of visitors today, and after watching the carriages drive away, he turned around with relief, tucked his sleeves and wiped the sweat that oozed from his forehead at some point.Jiji, who was waiting on the sidelines, walked over and offered tea, "Abbe is working hard."

The old housekeeper took three or two sips and drank it, shook his head and sighed, "This group of people, when your lord lost power, they didn't come to beg for offerings, but now they want to take advantage of you, and they scramble to come over to be the mole that snatches food. "The last two words are submerged in the breath, even though it is on our own territory now, but it can't stop the walls have ears, and we should be more careful in extraordinary times.

Ji Ji also sighed, "Because of this, Madam and Sir have not spoken for several days."

The old housekeeper took a look at the collection, pulled him into a corner and made sure there was no one around, and then said in a low voice, "What? Has this matter affected your lord and madam?"

Ji Jin took back the teacup from the old housekeeper, lowered his head and rubbed the lid of the cup unconsciously in his hand, "Now the whole court is spreading rumors that the generals are embracing their own dignity, and the places they have passed are quite popular, and they have a high prestige in the field. It’s a good time to throw trouble at the opponent’s family. We all know that our lord is at odds with General Wei, but we can’t always find him to be the first bird.” The more Jiji thinks about it, the more wronged he is, “Those people’s half-persuading, half-begging, and half-pressing methods are open and secret. Come on, it’s just bullying the adults who are now losing power. Just this point is enough pressure on the adults, but who is General Wei? It’s Madam’s sister-in-law. If General Wei falls, Madam’s sister will also suffer. Madam misses sisters the most Love is deep, but I can't bear to make it difficult for adults, and adults feel distressed when they see Madam, the two of them have been frozen like this for several days..."

The old butler also sighed secretly after hearing this.

The people in the court acted as demons, causing disaster to the Shangshu Mansion.

Ling Xueji looked at the light that was still on in the study room, and stood outside the door for a long time holding the crispy cheese that she specially bought from Jiangling in her hand. At the same time she was about to give up and turn back to the house, the door of the study room opened behind her. up.

"Xue Ji?" Qu Quan put down his hands that were about to rub his brows, and tried his best to fade away his tired face and put on a long-lost smile, "Did you prepare something for me to eat?"

In fact, when it comes to their recent "cold war", Qu Quan is indeed a little wronged, because Ling Xueji unilaterally avoided her, and she didn't have too much energy to think about how to coax people well under the mixed feelings, so she had to get through it for a while.Seeing Ling Xueji eagerly bringing over some snacks, his spirits were lifted.

Ling Xueji hesitated for a long time, and took two steps forward to stuff the crispy cheese into Qu Quan's arms, "I...I heard that you didn't eat much for dinner, so I'll bring you something to eat."

"Wow, the crispy cheese from Jiangling." Qu Quan happily scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth, smiling with crooked eyebrows, "Sweet."

"Then you eat, I'll go back to rest first." Ling Xueji had never thought that she was the stupidest at this moment, she didn't know what to say, so she had to leave first.Unexpectedly, Qu Quan called to stop him.

"Huh?" Ling Xueji turned around and looked at Qu Quan in a daze, fascinated by the stardust in those eyes.

"Xue Ji."

"Accompany me to court tomorrow?"

————————————————————

"Ma'am, the Shangshu Mansion is here." Zhan Jin lifted the curtain of the car and said to the people inside, and handed over his hand.

Before the coachman had time to get his feet ready, Ling Qiufan jumped out of the carriage with Zhan Jin's hand, and hurried to the door of Shangshu Mansion to ask to see Qu Shangshu.

The old butler felt dizzy the moment he saw the person. The person in front of him was a very special person in an extraordinary period, and he was never seen if his lord ordered him to die.While he was running around in a hurry, Ji Jin, who was watching by the side, walked in front of him at some point.

"Madam Wei, my lord is sick, please go back."

Ling Qiufan was not overly surprised, because this answer was already in her expectation, she had already sorted out her thoughts on the way, and she had already calmed down in front of the Shangshu Mansion.She was very clear about her real purpose of coming here this time.

"Please tell Qu Shangshu that I am visiting this time, and it may be the last time. Please let her meet me."

Ling Qiufan's steadfastness made Jiji look at her with admiration. Mrs. Jiuwen's sister Bingxue is smart, and she knew it when she saw her today. She is indeed a character. "The reason why Mrs. Wei wants to see the lord, the lord has already expected. The answer that the lord gave to Mrs. Wei is: Please go back."

Zhan Jin immediately exploded when he heard this, "You——"

"Zhan Jin." Ling Qiufan said coldly, "Don't be rude." Yan Luo turned around again, bowed to Ji Jin, and Ji Jin returned a big gift. "Thank you girl."

"Madam Wei is serious."

Ling Qiufan let out a long sigh of relief, as if the burden of the journey was finally unloaded at this moment, he walked towards the carriage without looking back, "Zhan Jin, let's go back home."

"Ma'am?!" Zhan Jin took a hard look at Ji Jin, and got a look from the latter who was neither humble nor overbearing, and could even be said to be inexplicably a little arrogant. With the posture of throwing the dust of the whole street into the nose of the big servant girl just now, he slammed down the long whip, and led the carriage away.

On the way, Zhan Jin was very angry, but rather than being angry, she was more puzzled why her wife gave up in front of a servant girl in the Shangshu Mansion, so she got into the carriage and asked the question directly in front of his wife.

"The general will not escape this time... I will not be alone." Ling Qiufan looked at the tea smoke rising from the small table, his eyes stained with a layer of tiredness, "The wind and rain are turbulent in autumn, and I I just hope that Qu Shangshu can protect Xueji and prevent her from getting involved in this storm."

Zhan Jin was taken aback for a moment, completely unaware that there was such a riddle hidden in a few polite words, "What is the answer from Naqu Shangshu?"

Ling Qiufan smiled knowingly, "She replied that she asked me to go back. Actually, there are two meanings. The first one is to let me go back on the surface, so that I can feel at ease, and the second one is to tell me secretly that I mean that she will come back again." Clearly, the farther away I am from them, the better, as long as the people and things in the General's Mansion are far away from them, she will be more confident in protecting Xueji."

After Zhan Jin listened to it, her already chaotic emotions simply gathered together and crushed into a stone, and she fell heavily in her heart. For a moment, she didn't know whether to say that they were horribly calm or terribly rational.From the moment she followed Wei Yueyan, she knew that the imperial capital was stormy and the general was in a high position with such a suspicious monarch, the future would not be easy.At that time, she would never have imagined that the general's future wife would be willing to put herself on her own and accompany the general in this catastrophe.

The king is like a rock, and the concubine is from Pu Wei.

The pampas grass is as tough as silk, and the rock has no transfer.

Fortunately, you know my heart.

----------------------

When she got back to the General's Mansion, Ling Qiufan wanted to sit in the Book Pavilion, this was a habit she had developed since Wei Yueyan went to war.On the way, I ran into a man who I hadn't seen for many days but was also in the mansion.

"I've heard about the general, girl, don't worry too much." Granny Xi sat down with Ling Qiufan in the pavilion, she placed the piano in her arms on the table, and stretched out her hand to hold Ling Qiufan's icy hands Hold it in the palm of your hand that is no longer delicate.

Wei Chengxu is the only elder in the General's Mansion, but Wei Chengxu is the only elder in the Wei clan, but this second master has a weird temper and lives in seclusion, and because of the difference between men and women, Ling Qiufan naturally won't get too close to him.Regardless of the young maidservants around, Zhan Jin and Luchen are sensible, but after all they are inexperienced, and it is difficult to express their thoughts to them. According to Ling Qiufan's temperament, he will definitely not talk about everything with the maidservant—even if He is Wei Yueyan's confidant.

Perhaps due to fate, the arrival of Granny Xi really made Ling Qiufan find a good listener, so she poured out the depression of the past few days, while Granny Xi listened quietly, waiting for Ling Qiufan to say Then he sighed.

"The general was half dead before the battle, and there are still people in the court who want to frame her. The consciences of these people have been eaten by dogs."

"Mother-in-law trusts the general?" Ling Qiu smiled slightly.

Granny Xi nodded, "Naturally I believe it." Some nostalgia gradually appeared in her no longer clear eyes, "My old husband died in the battle for the country, and he was stigmatized, and he has not been wronged so far. See It is a pity that the general and madam are like this."

Ling Qiufan didn't expect Granny Xi to have such sad things, and he felt a bit like a fallen person in the world, "I also have a younger sister who married the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and that Shangshu Qu was the general's political enemy. But she is reasonable. There is nothing wrong with her, but because of this brother-in-law relationship, the situation is quite embarrassing now."

Ling Qiufan said this to express his emotions, but Granny Xi suddenly raised her head after hearing this, and held Ling Qiufan's hand vigorously at the same time, "Qu Shangshu? Qu's surname is considered a common surname in Jinling River, I don't know this Shangshu Who's the name?"

"Qu Shangshu, the full name is 'Qu Quan'." Although Ling Qiufan didn't know what it meant, he still replied.

Granny Xi pondered for a moment, her eyes were a little complicated, full of emotions that Ling Qiufan couldn't understand.

"Qu Quan?...Maybe."

————————————————————

On the next day, Wei Yueyan's self-respecting remarks broke out in the court, and the mountain of reference books and sea water of advice almost overturned the entire court.If it weren't for this group of people who still cared about their own glory and wealth, they would be able to beat those who opposed their remarks to death in the court hall immediately.

Several political factions came and went without showing any weakness, fighting with each other and destroying eardrums.Wei Yueyan led the army outside, and was listed as nine serious crimes by the court just because of a sharp victory, and there was very little opposition, except for a few political factions who were torn apart by the interests of the whole court. He was arrested and returned to court for punishment.

At the scene of this farce that was enough to be recorded in the annals of history, Qu Quan nodded and lowered his eyebrows, and stood upright on the spot holding a wat board, without saying a word.

However, since she is standing here today, she is destined to be pushed to the forefront.As soon as the subject changed the subject, it was as if it was a rehearsal, and the head of the speech fell on Qu Quan.

"Qu Shangshu, you have impeached Wei Yueyan for violating military orders three times in the palace, and you are the most clear about his actions of forming a party and private affairs. Why don't you play it together in front of the emperor today."

"Qu Shangshu once found out Wei Yueyan's actions to privately monopolize salt merchants. I wonder if there is any verification?"

"Master Liu's words are interesting. Doesn't Lord Liu know that Master Qu is related to General Wei?"

"Although Qu Shangshu and General Wei have a brother-in-law relationship, how can the court deceive the saints? The veteran believes that Master Qu can play it truthfully."

"..."

Emperor Yulong Liumian covered his face and couldn't see his expression clearly. Only then did he raise his head slightly, and said the first sentence he said in court today, "Qu Qing, that's up to you."

Qu Quan stepped out slowly, bowed to Emperor Yulong, and when he stood up straight, his back was as straight as a green bamboo.

Qu Shangshu, who always has a lotus tongue, only said two sentences today.

"I think that no matter how ruthless a sword or gun is, it can't be as ruthless as the mouth of the speaker, and no matter how sharp the sword and halberd are, it can't match the pen of your colleagues."

"Wei Yueyan's loyalty to the emperor and the heart of serving the country can be learned from the sun and the moon. I am willing to guarantee it with my life."
