my wife is mulan

These brothers started to make trouble for Mu Liyan. They had few troops and fast maneuvering speed. They used the flexibility of the small number of troops to lure Mu Liyan and his soldiers and horses around. Mu Liyan and his soldiers were a little exhausted.

In the first ten days of April, Juqu Wuji began to be dishonest. He ordered the beheading of the eunuch sent by the Qianguo court to announce the decree, and then he and Juqu Tianzhou led 5000 troops from Dunhuang to attack Jiuquan.

At this time, there was a famine in Jiuquan City, and many people died of starvation. The soldiers under the guard of the Qianjun He Liangui were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, and they had no strength to fight. Taboo and Juqu Tianzhou took Jiuquan effortlessly, and captured more than [-] of the Qianjun guard Helian Guiji's men!

Afterwards, Juqu Wuji continued to attack Zhangye with his division east. Zhangye's defenders stood by and waited for reinforcements.

In the last ten days of April, Zhao Junsheng ordered General Wei Chi Yandong to lead an army to attack Juqu Wuhu.

In the middle of May, Juqu Wuji besieged Zhangye again, but still failed to take it. The general Wei Chi Yandong had already led his troops to Zhangye, so Juqu Wuji had to lead his army to withdraw and retreat to Linsong to defend. .

This time, Yuchi Yandong did not have many troops, only more than [-] people, and they were lacking in offensive capabilities. Bring these people to rescue Zhangye.

In the case of insufficient troops, Yuchi Yandong sent envoys to meet Juqu Wuhu and ask him to surrender.

This time Juqu Wuji did not kill the envoy. Ten days later, he found that the reinforcements of the Gan army to the Liangzhou area had increased. He felt frightened. Strength and vitality will deal with Qianguo again.

On May 23, Juqu Wuji sent his lieutenant Liang Wei to see Yuchi Yandong, expressing his willingness to release the captured Qianjun general Heliangui and hundreds of soldiers under his command. Canonized.

Yuchi Yandong wrote a letter to report the matter. On the first day of June, Zhao Junsheng and the ministers were going to court, and the [-] Lijia horse sent by Yuchi Yandong sent the report.

"Oh, Juqu Wuji is willing to release our captured generals and generals? Willing to send them to Jiuquan City?" Zhao Junsheng was a little surprised when he opened Yuchi Yandong's letter.

But Zhao Junsheng immediately understood Juqu Wuji's intentions, "I'm afraid Juqu Wuji didn't really submit to him by doing this? I guess he has reached his limit and can't fight anymore, so he has to compromise with our country. Zhu Qing What do you think about this?"

Cui Hao stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I thought that Juqu Wuji could be conferred, but now both sides can't fight anymore, we need time to mobilize troops and transport supplies, and Juqu Wuji is powerless to succeed, after canonizing him, we can Reassure him, we will send envoys to meet Dunhuang prefect Juqu Tang'er, bribe him, cause trouble for Juqu Wuji, and let them kill each other!"

Zhao Junsheng adopted Cui Hao's strategy. On the next day, he sent an envoy to Jiuquan to confer Juqu Wuji and sent a secret decree to Yuchi Yandong, ordering Yuchi Yandong to send a secret envoy to Dunhuang to meet Juqu Tang'er.

On the eighth day of July, envoys from the Qian State arrived in Guzang, Liangzhou. Yuchi Yandong also received a secret decree from Qianjing. The envoy went to Dun to see Juqu Tanger.

Juqu Wuji accepted the canonization of Emperor Zhao Junsheng of the Qian Kingdom, sent back the captured generals of the Qian army, and the two sides also formally ceased fighting.

Ten days later, Yuchi Yandong's envoy arrived in Dunhuang secretly. He brought a large amount of treasure to Juqu Tang'er and made a big promise. Juqu outspoken.

Juqu Tang'er spent two months preparing, and on the third day of September, he rebelled.

After the news spread, Juqu was furious and left Juqu Tianzhou to guard Jiuquan. He and Juqu Yide led an army to Dunhuang.

When Juqu Tang'er heard the news, he personally led 1 troops to fight against Juqu Wuji and Juqu Yide. The two sides fought outside the city. At the beginning, Juqu Wuji pretended to be defeated and retreated [-] miles to find a high ground to station.

Juqu Tang'er was proud and complacent after winning a game, and led the army to attack on the next day. His soldiers and horses were far away from Dunhuang City, and lost the mutual horns in the city. Juqu Wuji launched a charge in a condescending manner, which was unstoppable.

Juqu Tang'er rushed to fight, and the army was quickly defeated, with numerous casualties. He himself was captured by Juqu Wuya and was soon executed.

Two days later, the defenders in Dunhuang City surrendered, and Juqu Wuji and Juqu Yide occupied Dunhuang City.

Dry the capital.

Zhao Junsheng was busy in the palace wine shop in casual clothes. He ordered the supervisor to build a set of distillation equipment according to his idea. Although this device can be used to distill high-quality wine, he is not using it for distillation at this time. High alcohol.

"Okay, put all these roses in it... Okay, put the lid on tightly so that no air can leak!" Zhao Junsheng ordered a few eunuchs.

The fire quickly boiled the water, and the steam came out along the pipe, and then cooled through the condenser, and drops of liquid with a strong fragrance kept dripping into a transparent glass pot.

"It smells so good!" Several eunuchs kept sniffling.

After half an hour, the liquid dripping from the condenser was divided into two distinct layers in the glass jug. The bottom layer was colorless and transparent water, and a thick layer of oil was suspended on the water, which was the floral essential oil.

Zhao Junsheng used a small spoon to scoop out the rose essential oil suspended in the glass pot and put them in small glass bottles, and then sealed the lids.

"Okay, pour out the residue inside, clean the pipe, steam all these flowers according to the method just now, put them in glass bottles one by one, and bring a bottle to me after it's done, no one is allowed Private possession, understand?" Zhao Junsheng ordered.

The eunuchs said repeatedly: "Slaves dare not hide it privately!"

Hua Mulan is chatting with the wives of several court ministers in the inner palace. Life in the palace is boring. When she is doing some needlework, she often sends people to the palace to chat with the wives of ministers and generals. They are idlers, and they are all happy to enter the palace to talk to the queen and get closer.

Hua Mulan also gave marriages to the children of several ministers and generals in the court.

Several women were having a good chat, when an eunuch came in and reported: "Report to Empress, Your Majesty is coming!"

The wives immediately stood up when they heard that, Zhao Junsheng had already stepped into the main hall, and they quickly bowed down: "My wife pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and raised his hand: "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Hua Mulan had already stood up and asked, "Your Majesty has no government affairs to deal with today?"

"It's all done!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and went to his seat and sat down. He said to the wives: "You are lucky. I will give the queen a gift. Since you are here, I will give each of you a gift. Come!"

A eunuch came in with some exquisite glass bottles on a tray. Zhao Junsheng reached out and took out a bottle from the tray and handed it to Mulan: "Mulan, open it and smell it!"

Suspiciously, Hua Mulan took a glass bottle, looked at it and said with a smile, "This glass bottle is quite exquisite, and it's worth a lot!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled: "Could it be that you still want to buy a basket and return the pearls?"

"Hey, you mean to say that the contents of this little glass bottle are worth more than it?"

"You'll know when you open it and smell it!"

Hua Mulan uncorked the bottle, and smelled a strong fragrance before she got it up to her nose, and only a few wives who stood far away could smell it.

"smell good!"

"What kind of fragrance is this? It's so fragrant!"

Hua Mulan and several wives were intoxicated.

Zhao Junsheng asked with a smile, "Is it fragrant?"

"Fragrant!" Hua Mulan and several wives replied together.

Zhao Junsheng said to Hua Mulan: "This is called perfume, Mulan, I gave you all of these!"

Hua Mulan was elated, remembering that there were a few wives next to her, and remembering that Zhao Junsheng said that he would give each of them a bottle, so she said to them: "Your Majesty also said just now that each of you will be given a bottle. Come and pick a bottle!"

The wives were overjoyed, and they all wished Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan their blessings: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Queen Mother!"

The wives didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and they didn't dare to choose. They each took a bottle from the tray, and they said goodbye quickly, leaving happily with the perfume given by the emperor.

Hua Mulan looked at the seven or eight bottles of perfume in the tray with joy and asked Zhao Junsheng, "Brother Junsheng, where did these perfumes come from?"

Zhao Junsheng said: "I did it! Last year I promised to give you a gift that satisfied you, but I have been busy with court affairs and have no time. I have some free time during this time, so I made these perfumes for you. Like it?"
