How many buildings are in the mist

"I've been tired of you recently." Feng Zihuan raised his head and drank the fourth glass, carefully put down the glass, looked at Cui Xuanji with his chin in his hand; looked at it and laughed again: "This is nonsense. These few days In the past year, what has not tired you? Originally, I hoped that you would recover from your injury and rest for a while, but now..."

Cui Xuanji lowered his eyes, and said something like his duty. "What are you supposed to do?" She interrupted, "I won't believe that you are really just because of these things. Huh?" Seeing the person in front of her blushing, she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart, and smiled to persuade her to drink. Drink it yourself.After drinking this, she asked Cui Xuanji again if the wound on his body still hurt.Cui Xuanji said a lot better, but occasionally itches.

"I see that your complexion is not very good, have you stayed up too late lately?" Cui Xuanji nodded slightly, which was a bit cute in Feng Zihuan's eyes, "Then you have to be careful. It's okay without others, I Without you, without Zizhang, without Cui Xiang, there is no other way. You Qi, You Qi cannot be without you."

She looked at Cui Xuanji, and the remaining rationality knew that her eyes were not squinted or her tongue was not stiff, but her mind was gradually losing control, as if there was a strong desire flowing in her body, impacting her only defense.

As long as the mind is weak, all defenses are weak.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will always be with you."

"Always?"

"Always."

Cui Xuanji spoke seriously, Feng Zihuan smiled.How nice this word is, if you don’t talk about the start and end points, it doesn’t matter when it will end.At that time, as long as the notification is made, it will be considered.So she asked again, "Forever?"

"forever."

Seeing that Cui Xuanji answered without even thinking about it, she was taken aback, and her mind froze for a moment.

"Things in the world don't always go as we think, Xuanji, it won't." She shook her head and poured herself another glass of wine, but Cui Xuanji didn't stop her.

"It's because it's not as good as you want, so you have to do your best. Even if your majesty is the emperor, you still live in the mortal world. Sometimes the destiny cannot be violated for your majesty. We can only do what we can, so we must do well what we can do. .”

She looked at Cui Xuanji for a long time, until Cui Xuanji looked away, Fang smiled and said, "Why did you come out of the Cui family? You, Xiang Cui, and your father are different. It's like your uncles."

Cui Xuanji laughed, saying that his uncle also said the same thing when he was a child.She sat up straight when she heard the words, and said: "Speaking of which, I will occasionally recall the impression I had of you when you were young. As a result, I can remember too little."

"Your Majesty has everything to do every day, so it's understandable to forget me."

Cui Xuanji's words were somewhat sarcasm, Feng Zihuan refused to agree, and leaned forward and said, "Then tell me, when you were young, what did you remember about me?"

Cui Xuanji was taken aback for a moment, then his face turned red, he lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "I remember His Majesty was so heroic and radiant, like..."

"Like what, huh?"

In order to hear clearly, Feng Zihuan leaned closer, his breath almost touching Cui Xuanji's cheek.

"Like an eagle ready to soar at any time, a leopard ready to hunt at any time; like a legendary god, charming, powerful, beautiful, and sacred. It makes people dare not take a second look."

Cui Xuanji must have drunk too much wine today, Feng Zihuan thought, Cui Xuanji who drank too much wine is so cute, so cute that she lost her mind.

"Why don't you dare take another look?" She continued to ask, almost forgetting what she was asking.Cui Xuanji raised his head and met her eyes.She saw that Cui Xuanji's eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

"Because if you look at it one more time, you can no longer look away and think about other things."

"Oh?" Her eyes fell from Cui Xuanji's.

Then he leaned forward and kissed Cui Xuanji's mouth.

This person in front of me is mine, and I want to own her completely, from every inch of skin to every drop of bone and blood, she is mine.She is faithful to me, she knows me, she protects me, she is protected by me, she will find my love in me, and she will give me all her love.

She is my person, my harbor, my sword, and my treasure.

When Feng Zihuan reacted, he was already on Cui Xuanji's body, with his hands where they shouldn't be, and Cui Xuanji's official uniform had been pulled away by her.She opened her eyes, and so did Cui Xuanji, Cui Xuanji's eyes were blurred, even somewhat pitiful.Both were panting.

Her movements stopped, and she got up from Cui Xuanji's body.The bedroom was eerily quiet.Cui Xuanji's eyes fell from panic to despair like fireworks, and her eyes dodged like a frightened deer running away in the jungle on a moonlit night.

At the other end of the palace, Duan Qichen and Zhu Xianwan waited until the guards came to report that the princess was well again, then ordered the door to be closed and prepared to rest.The debate about where the two of us should sleep has continued from dinner until now, Zhu Xianwan is already tired, and Duan Qichen still wants to argue with her: "I said we should sleep at my place, because the maids at my place are from Brought from the hometown of Xianbei. Although you can’t say that you can fight against the enemy with martial arts, compared with the female officials here, those Xianbei girls are well-trained and have keen hearing, so they should be safer.”

Zhu Xianwan swiped her with a handkerchief to slap her, "You can't stop arguing with me? Cui Xuanji made the guards in the palace like this, not to mention people, if birds don't want them to enter, they can't enter either. There is nothing to worry about." What's the point of a maid? Besides, if there are thieves coming, what's the use of a court lady. It was obvious from Hualin Garden that night that they wouldn't come after us."

Duan Qichen said: "Where are they not coming after us? Nowadays, don't killing one count as one, and scaring another? Intimidation is also a strategic purpose."

Zhu Xianwan shook her head with a smile, and changed the subject: "You Xianbei people, what would you do if you encountered such a thing?"

"What kind of thing? To rebel or to be rebelled?"

Zhu Xian rolled his eyes tactfully, and said, "Rebellion. Will you kill people to intimidate each other?"

Duan Qichen said of course she would, and then talked about many things she had seen with her own eyes.Even if some of them were simple and vague, it was difficult to omit the bloody details. The more she said, the more scared Zhu Xianwan became, and she was told to shut up soon.

Duan Qichen closed his mouth with a smile, and soon began to prepare to continue the topic just now. Zhu Xianwan ignored her and asked, "Is this true for all Xianbei people? The same is true for Murong Yanguo in the north?"

"People from the Murong Department learned the customs of your Han region early in the morning. They also learned the clothes, the language, and the administrative system. I guess they just didn't learn the military system. If they didn't learn from you, how could they become so powerful so quickly? .As for this cruel thing, maybe it’s still done.”

Zhu Xianwan smiled and said, "I don't like to hear such compliments."

Duan Qichen said seriously: "This is not a compliment, it is the truth. I didn't think so before, at least I didn't believe it very much. Now that I have been in Jiankang for so many years, I finally understand that it makes sense. Some things, learning is like learning to make A complex and light tool, used to solve the same complex and delicate problem. The previous simple method cannot solve the problem. Some things cannot be solved by too complicated means, but can only become simpler and simpler. For example, the murderer knife."

"It's getting easier to kill," Zhu Xianwan sighed. "What's the benefit? Throughout the ages, most of the people who died were innocent people."

Duan Qichen said: "Everyone wants to 'subdue others without fighting', and everyone thinks that they should 'be mighty and unyielding'. There is always no way around this."

"Even if you can't kill people, is it so difficult for a general to restrain his subordinates with strict military discipline?" Zhu Xianwan expressed her protest in a low voice.Duan Qichen seemed to dislike her anger, and stretched out his hand to pat her on the back, but he did not give in verbally: "However, I think, what is the difference and difference between killing people and looting? Both are bad. Soldier When they go to the battlefield to kill people, they must be bloodthirsty. If it is not for this nature, it will be more or less distorted. It is difficult for the generals to obey orders and kill people. gone."

Zhu Xianwan looked at her for a long time before she said: "If my father is still alive, he may not agree with your point of view, but he will definitely like you."

Duan Qichen asked in surprise, "Like me?"

Zhu Xianwan nodded, "I like you as a Xianbei, but you have learned and used the Confucian classics well."

Duan Qichen laughed loudly: "I thought that the old man would like me as a son-in-law!"

Zhu Xianwan stretched out her hand to pinch her waist, and said while pinching, "How do you know it's a son-in-law, not a daughter-in-law?"

The two laughed for a while, Zhu Xianwan said seriously: "Speak seriously. Don't do what happened that day again."

"What kind?" Duan Qichen understood before he finished speaking, and said, "Hey, I was also in an emergency that day. Besides, in such a situation, if I don't protect you, why should I push you out?"

Zhu Xianwan sighed, and said: "I didn't mean that either. But... I don't want you to take risks or get hurt for me. You are not Cui Xuanji, so there is no need for that."

Duan Qichen stroked her cheek full of pity, but she continued: "I don't want you to die for me, I would rather be with you—"

Duan Qichen immediately covered her mouth with his hand, "Swallow it back! Swallow it back! Don't say such unlucky words!"

Zhu Xianwan was amused, and stretched out her hand to remove the hand that was tightly covering her mouth, saying: "Why, I said before that I would be my father's good son-in-law, but now I dare to share the happiness with me, but I dare not Huang Quan?"

Duan Qichen also smiled: "Live well, what are you talking about in the underworld! Besides, why dare not? Life is more severe than death. I am already very happy living with you. There is nothing to be afraid of death!"

Satisfied, Zhu Xianwan held Duan Qichen's hand tightly, and was pulled into Duan Qichen's arms obediently, and whispered softly: "I used to think that life was not fun, and it was not even interesting. I would rather live a shorter life. Now that I have you, I would rather live a shorter life." I want to live a few more years—"

Her next words were swallowed by Duan Qichen's kiss, because Duan Qichen didn't want to repeat similar words, and I thought the same thing.Action is enough, action is enough.

A few days later, Feng Zizhang was lucky enough to receive a piece of information, saying that he seemed to have discovered the place where the rebels led by Feng Zibai hid their warships.Feng Zizhang asked Feng Zihuan, Cui Yi and Taiwei for instructions, then sent the news to Cui Xuance, and gave him a chance to directly contact this "eyeliner" along the way.Cui Xuance lived up to the entrustment, got the news, personally led people, went back and forth hundreds of miles a day and night, and damaged several ships of Feng Zibai's fleet.These several ships became the burial of the rebel navy who was defeated by Cui Xuance more than ten days later.

When the news reached Jiankang, the court's morale was greatly boosted.According to Cui Xuance's battle report to the court, Feng Zibai's main force has basically lost the ability to go downstream to intimidate Jiankang.At this time, the rebels either choose to fight for a longer period of time, or choose to fight the official army head-on on land.

At this juncture, Feng Zizhang decided to hold a party.Although there was no Xie Yan's help this time, the servants were naturally proficient at most of the things because they did too much.Huiyu came to ask for an invitation card, but Feng Zizhang said that I would write it myself.Huiyu was surprised, and said that His Highness doesn't have to be like this, although Master Xie wrote it before, but now we can do it for her when she is not here.

Feng Zizhang refused, because she knew that only the invitations written by herself would have certain coercive power.

In the afternoon in mid-October, the invitees arrived on time.They looked at each other and were surprised to find that the host family invited almost all the poor officials who were officials in the court, just like at the beginning.Some of them have said that they are ill and will not go to court, so as not to speak out to cause trouble;

When Feng Zizhang came, everyone stood up and saluted.A piece of tea was served, followed by many teas and foods.Different from the past, everyone got slightly different food this time.Whether it is the same or two, everyone has a dish of food from their hometown in front of them.Seeing these humble officials who live poorly on weekdays, are reluctant to buy exquisite food, and live very tight during wartime, the mild ones sighed, and the severe ones shed tears.

Feng Zizhang took the lead and drank a cup first, and then persuaded everyone present.After eating a round, Feng Zizhang said: "My lords are invited to come here today. It's been a long time since I came here. I think this kind of thing must be done during the chaos of war. It is not good to deal with official duties. Secondly, I see that all the adults are depressed recently, and I want to use the recent good news to cheer everyone up."

Those present were whispering.Feng Zizhang then said loudly: "Everyone must have known about Cui Xuance's defeat of the enemy army. I think this incident is enough to prove the ability of the imperial court. When the rebellion first broke out, the imperial court will inevitably be in a hurry. Now that the layout is in order, food and grass are dispatched. It is capable, and the news and intelligence are endless, and it is only a matter of time before the enemy army is dealt with."

There was silence again.Feng Zizhang smiled, and said: "I know that you may also think that when you first came to the court, you made so much effort for the reform that His Majesty wanted to implement, and it was for the progress of the country, but I didn't expect such a result in the end. Yes, I also believe that this rebellion is the result of our attempts to reform. It is a testament to the difficulty of our reforms and the difficulty of implementing them. Because we did the right thing and they stubbornly insisted on their mistakes, so we You have to decide the outcome on the battlefield! You don’t need to make any other understandings, this is an all-or-nothing, life-or-death battle! Whether it’s on the front line or in the court, it’s the same, no one can be an exception!”

The audience was still quiet, but Feng Zizhang felt that he could vaguely hear their heartbeats.

"Everyone who is worried about the safety of your relatives and friends in your hometown, the ancestral graves of the old house, and the safety of your wives and children in Jiankang, you must know that the rebel army will never tolerate you. How can the rebel army join forces with the Gu family? What about a glimmer of life? The only way to protect what you want to protect is to serve the court! It is to advise the court and defeat the rebels! Other than that, there is no way out!"

At the beginning, some people turned their heads and looked at her with eyes like torches.She was overjoyed, and said generously: "Based on my knowledge of you adults, I have absolute confidence in your abilities. I believe that you adults are ten times stronger than those rebels. Understand real life, be rich in common sense, and understand the detailed conditions of each state and county. With these, you can be regarded as good at the battle, and you can also participate in the war! Make contributions and settle the country. If it’s not now, when will it be?”

Her voice was rarely so impassioned, like a golden stone falling to the ground, echoing in the living room.

In an instant, two or three people who were infected by her impassioned enthusiasm came out to respond, and gradually more and more people responded, and finally everyone was mobilized and reached a consensus to resist the enemy.She breathed a sigh of relief, satisfied, and began to guide everyone to discuss the current situation.For a while, the mouth was foaming and noisy.

At the same time, Xie Yan, who is very familiar with this scene, stood in front of his horse, ready to lead his army to attack, and make a surprise attack in the dark.

"Wait until Feng Zihuan reacts" has actually been revised.Guess what?Anyway, it's not below the neck.
