[Datang Glory] Mountains and Rivers

["Recover Chang'an, wipe out the rebels, so as to revitalize our great Tang Dynasty!" Adapted from "Old Tang Book·Li Jing Biography"]

☆, seem to have nothing

"The minister, Shi Siming, kowtows to His Majesty."

An Qingen was still young, and even though he was wearing imperial clothes, he didn't dare to make any noise, so he could only look timidly at An Qingxu and Xue Xunying, and when he saw An Qingxu nodding, he opened his mouth and said, "Aiqing is flat. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The original plan of An Qingxu and Xue Xunying was that Shi Siming refused to go to Beijing to meet him, so they directly sent troops to attack Shi Siming. They didn't expect Shi Siming to be an adventurer, and he was willing to go to Beijing to meet An Qingen. They arranged for people from Beijing to assassinate Shi Siming.

While the banquet was underway, An Qingxu suddenly said, "Shi Jiedu used to be his father's love in his lifetime. I personally think that Shi Jiedu's martial arts skills are so outstanding that he should be crowned king. I don't know what your Majesty thinks?"

An Qingen was startled when he heard An Qingxu call his name suddenly, and then said in a low voice: "I...I think Brother Huang is right, yes..."

Shi Siming attended the kowtow again and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

An Qingxu and Xue Xunying looked at each other.

Speaking of assassination, the two of them didn't expect to succeed in one blow, but just wanted to test it out to see if Shi Siming had placed people in the court.

After the imperial banquet was over, people left the palace one after another. An Qingxu sent Xue Xunying to the carriage and said, "Be careful on the road."

Xue Xunying understood what he meant——

Success or failure, tonight.

Once the assassination of Shi Siming is successful, An Qingxu will immediately remove An Qingen from the throne, replace it with the banner of the Tang Dynasty, and work with Li Chu to put down the rebellion; if not...

"I know, you have to be careful."

Xue Xunying sat on the carriage back to the Jin Palace, feeling a little uneasy, and the maid Qingyuan thought she was worried that An Qingxu would not return at night, so she comforted her: "His Royal Highness Jin must have business to do, the princess need not worry. "

Xue Xunying was taken aback, looked at her, and said with a smile, "I know."

Worrying about An Qingxu was one of them. She was more worried about whether Shi Siming was really unprepared?

The horse's hooves stepped on the stone slabs, making a "da da" sound, and dim lights could be seen from time to time through the curtain, and there was a decaying moisture in the air.

The incense burner was lit inside the carriage to dispel the cold, and there was still a little steam in the tea cup. There were all kinds of supplies in the carriage, which were not available for ordinary people.

Xue Xunying was in a trance when the carriage suddenly stopped, almost throwing Xue Xunying out, and then there was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, the air suddenly fell into a strange silence, and the horse let out an uneasy snort.

The maid, Qingyuan, looked nervously at Xue Xunying.

She is still young, where has she seen these.Xue Xunying gave her a reassuring look, and casually picked up the incense burner on the table, but the hand holding the incense burner could not help but tremble, and the other hand was holding the whistle that An Qingxu gave her in the cuff— —As long as the whistle is blown, Qin Feng and others will come to rescue her immediately.

After a while, the curtain of the car was lifted a little, and Xue Xunying had already seen the sharp blade flashing a gleam of cold light under the moonlight, but he still tried his best to hold his breath and control his fear.

Noticing that there was someone inside, the man opened the car curtain completely, raised the knife and was about to stab Xue Xunying, Xue Xunying threw the ashes in the incense burner at him, the man backed up a few steps, and was about to stab her again, Xue Xunying hurriedly threw the censer in his hand and hit it on the horse's back. The horse was frightened, neighed, and immediately galloped forward.

Xue Xunying carefully supported the handrail of the carriage to move forward, stretched out his hand to grab the reins barely, and hurriedly controlled the direction of the horse, letting it run towards the Jin Palace.

"princess……"

"Drive!" Xue Xunying looked back at her and said, "Don't be afraid, you'll be fine in a while." She took out the whistle in her sleeve, put it to her mouth, and blew the whistle with all her strength.

The whistle rang through the sky.

Xue Xunying threw the whistle to Qingyuan, and he steered the carriage towards the palace, but there was a trace of concern in his heart.

Just now the coachman fell to the ground without making a sound. It didn't look like he was killed close by, but rather...

Xue Xunying's pupils shrunk slightly, and the sound of piercing the air was already heard in her ears. Based on her first reaction, she turned slightly to the left, only to see the arrow feathers passing through the horse's belly and landing on the ground.

"Princess...dangerous..."

Sure enough, there was an ambush, and even the archers were hiding in the city.

Xue Xunying's heart tightened, and she scolded Qing Yuan: "Go back quickly, don't come out!"

"Princess, it's better for Qing Yuan to drive..." Qing Yuan climbed out of the carriage, wanting to take the reins from Xue Xunying's hand.

Xue Xunying was disturbed by her and became more and more flustered. She thought why Qin Feng hadn't come yet, and she had to protect her. She was flustered when she suddenly saw a cold light flash in Qing Yuan's hand, and it was too late for her to avoid the attack. He had no choice but to avoid the vital point as much as possible, and was hit by her in the left arm.

Assassins pay attention to one move to win, and after one move, there is no way to attack, Xue Xunying knows this very well.

Qingyuan didn't expect Xue Xunying to be killed on the spot by the blow, so she pulled out the hairpin from her hair and was about to stab her in the throat.

Xue Xunying didn't care about other things, so he pulled out the dagger reluctantly, blocked her hairpin with his backhand, and cut off her right hand with the dagger.

Qingyuan wailed, and Xue Xunying took advantage of this moment to push Qingyuan off the carriage, and continued to drive forward with the reins in one hand.

She could also hear the sound of bows and arrows piercing the air.

The galloping horse suddenly wailed and fell to the ground. The carriage was also thrown forward and lost its balance in the air.Xue Xunying had already exhausted his physical strength, so he could only shrink his body into a ball as much as possible and protect his head with one hand.She was thrown to the ground by the fall, and she felt that her bones were about to be broken, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

In a daze, she saw Li Chu and Li Xuan flashing in the cold light again.

"Donglang... Liancheng..."

She can't fall here...she has to see her husband and children...to see...

The assassination of Shi Siming failed.

It seems that Shi Si clearly has someone in Chang'an, but he doesn't know how deep this person is hiding.

An Qingxu's complexion was not good, the wind was blowing under his feet, and he walked quickly into the palace. The servant suddenly came over and said, "Your Highness, the princess has been assassinated!"

An Qingxu was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "How is she doing now?"

"General Qin has invited the imperial physician to give the princess an emergency treatment."

An Qingxu gave a "tsk", and walked quickly to Xue Xunying's room.

As soon as he opened the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood, and Qin Feng who was on the side bowed and said: "The humble job has already caught that assassin."

An Qingxu sneered, and said, "Torture to extract a confession until he reveals who is behind the scenes!"

"Yes!"

"What poison did she suffer from?" An Qingxu looked at the imperial physician with a dark face.

"This... I haven't..."

An Qingxu's complexion became more and more bad, and he said: "You useless thing, get out!" He sat beside Xue Xunying's bed, pressed his index finger and middle finger on her wrist, took off the bandage, and carefully inspected it. The wound on her left arm—has turned black, it seems that the wound has been invaded by poison, but he can't tell what kind of poison it is for a while, but Xue Xunying's wound is not waiting for anyone.

An Qingxu made a decisive decision, pulled out the dagger he was carrying with him, burned it on the candle, pinched her cheeks with one hand, forced her to open her mouth, and then put the gauze beside her into her mouth. Only then did he hold her arm tightly, and cut off the poisoned flesh on her arm very quickly, the wound was so deep that bones could be seen.

Xue Xunying also felt severe pain in the coma, and opened his eyes in an instant, as if his body was going to bounce, and tears overflowed from his eye sockets uncontrollably.

Although she suffered hardships when she was young, she never cut flesh and bones. An Qingxu's knife really made her suffer.

An Qingxu pressed her body, took out the antidote he made earlier from his bosom and sprinkled it on it. Although the medicine could not completely detoxify, the spread of the toxin would not be as serious as before.

If the wound just now felt like being exposed to the cold wind, the pain was piercing to the bone, but now it is like being burned by a raging fire, quickly skipping the brain, and clearly expressing bitter crying.Xue Xunying bit the gauze in her mouth tightly, her brain was occupied by a burst of crying information, and she couldn't think anymore. With tears in her eyes, she seemed to feel that this person in front of her was overlapping with someone else, and she almost instinctively shouted: "Dong Lang ..."

As soon as the words fell, she passed out.

An Qingxu helped her bandage the wound. Seeing her sweating profusely, he suddenly felt pity in his heart, and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief beside him.

He had just put down the handkerchief in his hand when Xue Xunying coughed suddenly, and blood flowed down the corner of his lips again.

"His Royal Highness Zheng Wang, you have come, His Highness has locked himself in the pharmacy for several days."

An Qinghe just got back from the battle report from the front line.

Shi Siming left Chang'an the day after he was unsuccessfully assassinated, probably because he was afraid, or maybe he went back to find an excuse to attack Chang'an.

Once the smoke of war fills the air, it is most taboo to have internal responses.

"What's the matter? Ma'am?"

Qin Feng shook his head and said: "Madam was assassinated on the way back to the palace from the night banquet before. The dagger was poisoned. Madam, she..."

An Qinghe was taken aback for a moment, then asked: "Then how is Madam now?"

"I haven't woken up yet. Your Highness has been studying it for several days. Your Highness, please go and have a look."

An Qinghe nodded, and went to the door of An Qingxu's pharmacy by himself, and kicked the door open, only to see An Qingxu inside, pounding some medicine, with something beside him.

An Qinghe took a closer look, and it turned out to be a piece of meat, with an ominous black color and some signs of decay. Even if he felt disgusted, An Qingxu was probably the only one who could look at this meat with fascination.

After a little thought, An Qinghe could also guess that this piece of meat probably came from Xue Xunying's body.

After an unknown amount of time, An Qingxu let out a breath, put the few pitiful pills into a small bottle, picked up a glass bottle at the side, and left without looking at An Qinghe.

An Qinghe was taken aback for a moment, then saw An Qingxu's back and shouted, "Second brother, wait for me!"

Xue Xunying just woke up, wearing only a jacket, leaning on the pillow and drinking medicine with one hand, when she saw An Qingxu walking in hurriedly, she was slightly taken aback.

An Qingxu couldn't help frowning and said, "Why don't you ask someone to come in and feed the medicine?"

Xue Xunying was confused by his angry tone, and asked, "Why are you angry?"

Even An Qinghe felt embarrassed for An Qingxu, and it was wrong to stand there or leave.

Xue Xunying didn't know her relationship with him.

Only then did An Qingxu realize that his behavior was inappropriate, he turned around and went to the door, and said to the maid outside, "Come in and help her apply the medicine."

Xue Xunying looked at An Qingxu's back, and couldn't help but start thinking again.

Why did An Qingxu treat her so... well.

Suspiciously good.

Xue Xunying couldn't bear to think about it, and felt itchy throat after taking the medicine. He was about to talk to An Qingxu, but couldn't help covering his mouth with his hand and coughing.

An Qingxu was startled, and said, "You..."

Xue Xunying spread out his right hand, quietly looked at the sticky bloodshot palm, and remained silent.

"I can last a long time, can't I?"

An Qingxu didn't speak.

The author has something to say: this author is going to take an exam, everyone enjoys reading~

I feel like this cp can’t stand anymore, kneeling down _(:з」∠)_

General, I'm sorry for you.

Dongrou, I'm sorry for you.

Donglang: Shut up, you!

☆, fighting openly and secretly

Xue Xunying's left arm could not be moved for the time being. The news of her assassination spread throughout Chang'an, and the rewards from the palace were continuously sent to the Jin Palace.An Qingxu also wrote a letter to Li Chu, Xue Xunying was far away from him, I don't know what his expression will be when he sees it, I'm afraid he will secretly blame her for not caring about his body.

Thinking of the way he frowned, Xue Xunying couldn't help but smile.

When An Qingxu saw Qin Feng's confession over there, he couldn't help frowning.

How could Shi Siming have the secret guard of Li Heng's concubine Zhang?

"Shi Siming has an affair with Zhang." Xue Xunying explained: "Li Bi is the 'proud work' of the two of them. I am afraid that the two of them have cooperated secretly. It is no wonder that I was assassinated last night. I am afraid it is also because of Zhang Shi's people are causing trouble."

An Qingxu choked, and said, "You know everything."

Xue Xunying said proudly: "That's natural."

An Qingxu gave her a white look: "What's there to be proud of? No wonder you got killed."

Xue Xunying snorted, but did not speak.

Although Dugu Jingyao had gathered many remnants of the Dugu family, after all, he had no rear supplies, so he could only fight guerrillas and drive out the barbarians who harassed the people.

Yunnan is far away, so it is obviously impossible to continue to consume without supplies. After thinking about it, Dugu Jingyao decided that it would be more appropriate to go to Li Chu.

Dugu Jingyao wanted to seek refuge with Li Chu, and Li Chu was also looking for traces of Dugu Jingyao.After all, the treasury of Dugu's family in Yunnan is not fake, and Dugu Jingyao herself is definitely not an idle person. If she can be won over, it will be very beneficial to the situation of the battle.

Coincidentally, the two bumped into each other.

"General Dugu."

Dugu Jingyao sat at the head, took a sip of tea, but did not intend to give Li Chu a good look.

It is one thing to seek refuge with Li Chu, but another to Xue Xunying.

Li Chu and Feng Shengyi looked at each other, while stroking the Qilin Token in their palms, while thinking about Dugu Jingyao's thoughts, the camp fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Li Chu made a gesture to Feng Shengyi, Feng Shengyi made a slight bow to Dugu Jingyao, and silently backed out.

"General Dugu, I don't know how to patrol..."

When Xue Xunying was mentioned, Dugu Jingyao no longer pretended to be polite with Li Chu, and said directly: "Are you still willing to ask?"

Li Chu was taken aback for a moment, his face was a bit embarrassed, like a son-in-law who was caught by his natal family to ask his teacher for a crime.

"Forget it, I won't embarrass you."

Thinking of Xue Xunying's obsession with Li Chu, Dugu Jingyao suddenly sighed.

"Xun Xun her... You also know that it is a tactic to delay the attack. You should understand Xun Xun's feelings for you."

Hearing what Dugu Jingyao said, Li Chu's heart tightened, and he couldn't help clenching his hands.

Dugu Jingyao was sitting at the top, and she could see his expression and movements clearly. She remembered Xue Xunying's way of supporting her sick body, and scolded Li Chu: "Xun Xun is willing to sacrifice his life for the Tang Dynasty, and he is also willing to die for you. ,do you understand?"

Although he believed that Xue Xunying was sincere to him, he still couldn't help but feel bitter about Xue Xunying's "remarriage".But after thinking about it, if he can stay by her side and take good care of her, why should she compromise?

Thinking of this, Li Chu couldn't get angry no matter what.

He finally nodded and said, "I know."

The two were in a stalemate, when Dugu Jingyao's deputy came in suddenly, Dugu Jingyao waved his hand and said, "If it's military, let's talk."

"Yes. To report to the young master, Shi Siming raised the banner, saying that An Qingxu was rebellious and sent troops to rebel against Yan."

Dugu Jingyao was slightly taken aback, and Li Chu and Li Chu looked at each other, both of them saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

How could such a thing happen suddenly?

The incident of Shi Siming's rebellion has also spread to Chang'an. For a while, people were panicked, and everyone was worried that there would be wars.

Xue Xunying was dressed in green, with his right hand resting on his left arm, with a haggard face, but he still neatened his clothes and sat quietly by the sand table, wondering what he was thinking.

An Qinghe talked for a long time, seeing Xue Xunying's distraught look, he felt helpless, but he didn't dare to speak directly, and could only look at An Qingxu who was on the side.

An Qingxu noticed An Qinghe's eyes, and said: "Since Shi Siming's reputation in the army is not lower than An Lushan, if he summons troops—"

"There must be dissatisfied people in his army?" An Qinghe said: "There are always a few people under his command who don't want to 'rebel'?"

"Although there are people who are loyal to An's family and Qingzong, if Shi Siming lures them with benefits, there will be no one who will not be tempted."

The two brothers talked for a long time, only then did they realize that Xue Xunying on the side had been silent all the time, Qiqi looked at her, An Qinghe was afraid of scaring her, and asked softly, "Ma'am?"

Xue Xunying looked at him and asked, "Why did Shi Siming turn against Yan?"

"Isn't it because the second elder brother wanted his dog's life?" An Qinghe said in a low voice, as if thinking of something again, he said, "No, if that's the case, why did he say 'big rebellion'?"

"Although he has Fan Yang as his base, there are many people who are loyal to the An family. With him alone, can he really reach Chang'an?" Xue Xunying asked back, looking at An Qingxu who had been silent all this time. "If His Highness takes advantage of the fisherman's advantage and attacks from behind when he and you are weak..."

An Qingxu was silent for a long time before saying: "He is testing, testing me, and testing Li Chu."

"Your Highness cannot refuse, and there is no reason to refuse." Xue Xunying looked at the sand table, and said softly: "Luoyang, the eastern capital, is an important place in the Tang Dynasty. If Luoyang is captured, Chang'an will be within easy reach."

"If Shi Siming wanted to show his sincerity to King Guangping, he would definitely not think less about it."

An Qingxu thought for a long time, and said: "I will arrange for reliable people from Fan Yang to take orders from Shi Siming for the time being, and let him take Luoyang as smoothly as possible."

If Shi Siming "surrenders" to the Tang Dynasty, it will be a face-saving project. Naturally, he must show sincerity and return the sovereignty of the territory south of Fanyang to the Tang Dynasty, so that Li Chu can justifiably recover the lost land without spending too much effort.

The next step is to see what Li Chu does.

As long as Shi Siming is allowed to attack Chang'an, and An Qingxu and Li Chu will attack back and forth, it doesn't matter whether Shi Siming really surrenders to Datang or not.

After that, An Qingxu took over Fan Yang's army, reorganized it, dispersed it and submerged it into the Tang army, and other armies were also reorganized in this way, and the hidden danger of supporting troops could be slightly alleviated.

In order to show the kindness of the court, no matter the royal family or the ministers, they will never easily touch An Qingxu and An Qinghe.As long as An Qingxu doesn't make a big mistake and unloads these burdens on his body, not only can he save his life, but he can also leave his name in history.

It's just that this move is a little risky. If An Qingxu can't support it and let Shi Siming invade Chang'an, he will very likely use Chang'an as his base, and it will be difficult at that time.

Therefore, An Qingxu had to find a way to maintain a delicate balance between the strengths of the two sides - to let Shi Siming beat him, but not to let him really succeed.

Xue Xunying dismissed all the thoughts in her mind, and said: "This is the best, you..." She thought for a long time, and finally said: "Qingxu, Qinghe, don't worry."

An Qinghe was a little surprised, and looked at An Qingxu who was beside him, only to see something passing in his eyes, and finally disappeared.

Perhaps some people are born to be each other's nobles. An Qinghe is An Qingxu's younger brother. Naturally, he knows that An Qingxu and Xue Xunying have changed a lot during the time they were together. At least, he is no longer as paranoid as before. .

An Qinghe was grateful to Xue Xunying, otherwise he was really worried that his second brother would not be able to get out. Now that Xue Xunying was willing to treat the two brothers frankly, An Qinghe was also very pleased.

Xue Xunying is indeed a unique woman.

In name, they also called her cousin.

It's just that An Qingxu didn't want Xue Xunying to know about it, so An Qinghe didn't point it out.

After all, the identities of the two of them are tricky, and if they recognize each other rashly, it may be detrimental to Xue Xunying's future.

"Sister Xue." An Qinghe bowed.

An Qingxu's expression was not as cold as before, and he said, "Just call me Renzhi."

"Benevolence." Xue Xunying showed a warm smile.

In the 18th year of Tianbao, Generalissimo Guangping Wang Li Chu and the surrendered rebel Shi Siming sent troops to conquer several cities one after another and regain the eastern capital Luoyang. The Yan army was forced to retreat. For a while, the Tang army surrounded the Yan army. Tang Jun's morale was immediately boosted.

Li Chu raised his wine glass and said: "You generals have worked hard. Recently, we will repair in Luoyang for a period of time. After Shuofang Army and Lu Ben Army can recuperate, we will prepare to conquer Chang'an."

From Luoyang to Chang'an, the march will take at least one day and one night, and it is not too far away, so there is no need to rush.Now that Luoyang has just been recovered, at least Luoyang must be settled first.

All the generals responded one after another, all with happy faces.

Shi Siming looked at Dugu Jingyao on the opposite side, and said: "General Dugu is really heroic and heroic. I often hear my daughter talk about the general, saying that she is envious of the general's demeanor."

Dugu Jingyao was impatient in her heart, but she didn't show it. She just put down her wine glass and said, "Mrs. Shi loves her so much, but Dugu dare not be her. Presumably, Mrs. Shi must also be born radiant and beautiful."

"General Dugu has won the prize."

Li Chu took a sip of his wine, thinking that it might not be that simple when Shi Siming suddenly mentioned his daughter.

as predicted.

"Nashi Siming's daughter is a child?" Li Chu frowned slightly.

Princess Yuzhen's complexion was also not good, it can be seen that she was very unhappy, but she still endured it in her heart.

"Shi Siming's wife Xin proposed that Xun Xun disappeared, Cui was insane, and the position of a child happened to be free,... it was nothing more than a temptation to you."

Marrying his daughter to him and taking the opportunity to let his daughter and wife stay in Tang Jun undoubtedly made Li Chu feel at ease with him.

"But how can I..."

How can I bear her affection again?

Even though Xue Xunying never said it, Li Chu still knew that feeling - the person he loves is with others, but far away from him, just like what he feels in his heart now.

Princess Yuzhen didn't speak, and said after a long time: "Chu'er, everything... ultimately must be based on the overall situation." Her voice was trembling slightly, and she clenched the corner of the table with one hand, as if thinking of Xue Xunying.

"Auntie..." Li Chu lowered his head and finally said, "The overall situation is the most important thing."

As long as Shi Siming enters this round...

It's only a few days, bear with it, bear with it, and I will be able to pick her up soon.

He wants her to stay by his side forever, stand at the highest place in the world, and enjoy the mountains and rivers and the world together!

Shi Chaoying didn't want to marry someone, and he married the leader of the Tang army—I heard that the man was from the royal family, or some kind of general of the world's soldiers and horses, who could be said to be above ten thousand people.Even so, she is still unwilling to marry. She is still young, and she is always thinking about the storybook's life-long love, how can she marry someone she doesn't know?

But all these unwillingnesses are all because of seeing that person turn into tenderness. The so-called life-long meeting is like that.

How could anyone else be like him, his eyes were full of affection, as if he wanted to take her soul away.

The original scolding also turned into a coquettish, Shi Chaoying said softly: "Husband..." Unconsciously clenched the round fan, and looked at him shyly.

Li Chu drank a lot of wine, but tried his best to stay awake. He glanced at Shi Chaoying, sat down at the table, shook the wine pot on the table, and said to the door: "Bring a pot of tea, I want Talk to Miss Smith."

"Here."

Shi Chaoying's heart trembled, she didn't know where she had offended him, so she dared to stand on the sidelines.

Li Chu looked at her and said coldly: "Mistress Shi is not sitting, is she waiting for the king to invite you to sit?"

Shi Chaoying had already read the intention of his visit from his eyes, and felt ashamed for a moment.

The author has something to say: I feel sorry for Chaoying girl, she will be cannon fodder when she comes out...

It is also a manifestation of Donglang's true determination. He does not need other people, and patrolling in this life is enough.

Chu Xun will meet again soon (?ω?)

Be careful when you stand on Xunxu, the empress will appear soon!

After taking the exam for three days, I feel that my body is hollowed out... The update is slower...

☆, overwhelming

Li Chu knows very well that if he still wants to stay with Xun Xun for this life, he will never be able to have any warmth for other women.What's more, now he doesn't have to be threatened by anyone.

So Li Chu didn't think about making a fuss with Shi Chaoying.

Rather than letting Shi Chaoying be deceived, it is better to reject her explicitly, and then it will be fine after being sad.

"Little... Ruren, what's the matter with you?" Qingzhi has been serving Shi Chaoying since she was a child. Li Chu just left the room this morning when Qingzhi came in. She didn't expect to see Shi Chaoying still in her wedding dress. The clothes were leaning against the window curtain, the makeup on his face was already smudged, his eyes were red and swollen, it looked like he had cried all night without resting.

Seeing Qingzhi, Shi Chaoying couldn't help crying silently.

I'm afraid that all the tears in this life will be shed.

"Chaoying has met Princess Yuzhen, Princess Jianning, Princess Xiaocheng, and Sister Cui."

Princess Yuzhen took a sip of tea, but did not speak.Murong Linzhi and Shen Zhenzhu who were sitting on the side were a little embarrassed, they could only show a smile as much as possible, while Cui Caiping who was sitting next to Shen Zhenzhu said with a smile: "It's not pretty."

Shi Chaoying trembled, slightly raised his eyes to look at Cui Caiping.

Shen Zhenzhu patted her lightly and reprimanded her slightly: "Ping'er..."

"It's not good-looking, you're not good-looking, not as good-looking as Sister Pearl, not as good-looking as Sister Lin Zhi, and—" Cui Caiping thought for a while, and said: "Not as good-looking as Sister Xunying either!"

There is a portrait of Xue Xunying at Princess Yuzhen's place. When she was young, Princess Yuzhen specially invited a court painter to draw it for her. She has a beautiful face with a hint of gentleness, which is very beautiful.Now that Xue Xunying is not by Princess Yuzhen's side, she hangs this painting in her room. She often sees the painting and thinks about people, and prays to the God of Heaven in her heart that her patrol will be safe and sound.Cui Caiping once met Princess Yuzhen in the room.

Shi Chaoying lowered her head, suppressed tears and did not speak.

"Get up." Princess Yuzhen put down the teacup and said to the West Terrace, "Make a seat for Shi Ruren."

"Here."

Only then did Shi Chaoying sit down carefully.

"Auntie!"

As soon as Shi Chaoying sat down, a little boy ran over and stood in front of him, his face full of joy.

Shi Chaoying looked at this little boy who looked very cute, modest and polite, and said gently: "Little Lang, I'm not your aunt."

Seeing Li Xuan's disappointed look, Lin Zhi hurriedly said: "Xuan'er, this is not your mother... According to your seniority, you..." She choked and lost her voice.

Only then did Shi Chaoying realize that this was her husband's only heir—the child born to his beloved, the eldest son of King Guangping, Li Xuan.

She should have been jealous, but looking at that cute little face, she couldn't feel any jealousy, but more envious of Xue Ruren, whom she had never met before.

Princess Yuzhen said: "Xuan'er, you should be called 'Auntie'."

Li Xuan is very well-behaved and sensible, and said to Shi Chaoying: "Hello, Auntie, Xuan'er mistook you for Aunt."

Shi Chaoying's heart ached, but she still said: "It's okay, it's okay..."

Li Ruo hurried on, and finally rushed back to Chang'an with Beige.

Now that many roads have been blocked, they also took a long detour before arriving in Chang'an.

As soon as he entered the former Guangping Palace, Li Ruo couldn't wait to run to the familiar garden, and at a glance, he saw Xue Xunying who was pruning the flower branches, and shouted: "Sister-in-law!"

Xue Xunying didn't expect Li Ruo to come back, she was quite pleasantly surprised, but there was still some trembling in her words, and said: "Guoer... Ruoer..."

Seeing that she no longer had the calm look she had before, Li Ruo threw herself into her arms and sobbed softly, "Sister Yingying...Sister Yingying...I'm back..."

"Ruren." Beige was a little excited when he saw Xue Xunying intact, and saluted.

With tears in his eyes, Xue Xunying nodded, patted Li Ruo's back with one hand, and said, "Okay, okay, it's good to be back...it's okay, it's good to be back..."

Li Ruo seemed to have remembered something, raised her head and said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, I did it!"

Xue Xunying was a little puzzled, and said, "What did you do?"

Just as An Qingxu walked in, he saw his aunt and sister-in-law talking and was about to leave, but Xue Xunying had already noticed: "Benevolence."

Li Ruo didn't know who she was calling, but when she raised her head and saw that it was An Qingxu, she was a little embarrassed for a moment.

Fortunately, An Qingxu did not come to look for her, but said to Xue Xunying who was beside him: "Li Chu has successfully captured Luoyang."

Before Xue Xunying could speak, Li Yu couldn't restrain his excitement, and asked, "Really? Brother Wang, have they really arrived in Luoyang?"

Did An Qingxu glance at Xue Xunying, Xue Xunying said, "What did you lie to?"

Li Ruo smiled and said, "That's great..."

"Little firecracker, haven't you told me what you did?" Xue Xunying asked after straightening her broken hair.

Li Ruo rubbed his nose embarrassingly, knowing that if he spoke out, he would inevitably be scolded, but in the end he said seriously: "I'm going to Huihe, and I invited Brother Mo Yan Chuo."

Xue Xunying was slightly taken aback, feeling a little complicated in her heart, instead of blaming her as Li Ruo thought, she remained silent for a long time.

My son, I have finally grown up...

Fortunately, it's not such an exciting growth...

An Qingxu glanced at her, but didn't speak.

"Sister-in-law?" Li Ruo stretched out her hand and carefully pulled Xue Xunying's sleeve.

Xue Xunying came back to his senses, changed his attitude towards her like a child before, and looked at her with a more respectful attitude.

This is an affirmation.

Li Ruo suddenly felt relaxed.

Maybe now she can understand the brothers better.

The three sat in the study, and An Qingxu asked, "Where is the Huihe army now?"

Li Ruo pointed to the map and said: "I entered Chang'an after traveling day and night. They should still be behind, but according to their speed, it will not be slow. In my opinion, since the time between Tubo and Huihe Turning around through the gap, it should already be near Jingzhou."

An Qingxu thought for a while, looked at Xue Xunying, and said, "Is Jingzhou a little far away?"

Xue Xunying thought for a while, and said: "It's a bit far away. Although it is a surprise attack, if the timing is not right, it may lose a good opportunity to take Shi Siming down in one fell swoop."

"what do you mean?"

Xue Xunying drew a place name with a pen and said, "Luzhou."

An Qingxu frowned, and said: "This is a little close, if Shi Siming notices..."

"You've cleaned up the spies in the city, haven't you?" Xue Xunying asked back. "Scatter in Luzhou, attack from both sides, surround Shi Siming, and see how much strength he has!"

An Qingxu paused and said, "If..."

"Anyone who behaves suspiciously should be killed! Reporting will be carried out in the city, and rewards will be given to those who report meritorious deeds."

An Qingxu hesitated, but finally nodded.

Xue Xunying looked at Li Ruo, who was at the side, and said, "Guo Er, you just came back, and there is one more important matter that can only be handled by you."

Li Ruo blinked, feeling a little confused.

Since An Qingxu seized power, Xue Xunying has been implementing the policy. It was originally just a rainy day, but now it has come in handy.

To implement a recuperation policy for Chang'an and its surrounding towns, one is to comfort the people, and the other is Xue Xunying's original unintended role—it explains An Qingxu's identity better, and it is precisely because he is a general of the Tang Army that he can comfort the people .

Although they joined forces secretly to resonate the mountains and rivers, they still played tricks, which was disgusting. At least An Qingxu had to have a good reputation, so he couldn't be the main general.

Among those present, only Li Ruo has this qualification. She is a sage who loves her grandson, the younger sister of Li Chu, the commander-in-chief of the army and horses in the world, and the princess of Dening County.

——They fought as subjects of the Tang Dynasty, for the glory of the country!

In less than half a month, the Tang army continued to advance. To show his loyalty, Shi Siming left his wife and daughter in Luoyang, took the lead in the charge, and soon conquered the small towns around Luoyang, and came straight to Chang'an.

In fact, he has his own calculations in his heart - as long as things can be done, what are his wives and daughters?Let's see if this last battle is successful, it will be famous forever!

And An Qingxu, Xue Xunying and Li Luo were also ready.

Li Ruo took a deep breath, walked up to the military platform, looked at the soldiers in red-striped black armor below, and said:

"Today is the day to regain the glory of my Tang Dynasty. You are the hope of my Tang Dynasty. Now is the time of troubled times. You and I are both disorganized people. There is no difference. We are all based on our flesh and blood. Those who are righteous in defending the country and repelling the rebels, in today's battle, if they don't kill the historical thieves and regain the glory of our Tang Dynasty, there will be no return! I only hope that the country will prosper and the world will be safe and healthy!"

"The country is prosperous and the world is healthy!"

Xue Xunying stood outside the barracks, listening to the shocking
