old attack difficult

In a damp cave, Wu Shi cleaned the wound of Chang An, who was unconscious. Chang An's face flushed obviously because he had a fever.

Wu Shi tore cloth from his clothes, folded it into a cloth towel, dipped it in water and put it on Chang'an's forehead to cool down.

Chang'an led 50 guards in front of the temple to secretly follow Zhang Yi's main force, but he was ambushed because he was not familiar with the terrain.

Of the more than fifty people, only Wu Shi and Chang'an were left, and Chang'an was seriously injured.

Now Wu Shi didn't dare to think about how he would explain to the powerful families of the guards when he returned to the capital as the captain. He only hoped to bring Chang'an back to Tianyi Mansion alive, at least so that Emperor Wei could save his life.

After tossing and tossing for most of the time, Chang'an's condition finally stabilized. He slightly opened his eyes to look around, then slowly closed them and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, I was awakened by the smell of Wu Shi's cooking soup. Before I opened my eyes, my mouth moved, and said weakly:

"What's the smell?"

Wu Shi knocked on the pot:

"Snake meat soup, I will make up for Your Highness."

The corners of Chang'an's mouth twitched when he saw what Wu Shi used to cook the soup. It was his helmet.

Seeing Chang An's twitching face, Wu Shi smiled and said:

"No way, the minister lost it."

After the two of them had enough to eat and drink, Wu Shi carried Chang'an back to Tianyi Mansion.Not long after he was in the woods, he encountered the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty who came to search and rescue.

After Emperor Wei and Xueyi received the news of Chang'an's return, Chang'an had been lying in Tianyi Mansion for three days, and Liu Yiyi waited by Chang'an's side for three days with his clothes untied.

Chang'an sighed in his heart, this girl was indeed much better at taking care of people than those old men and soldiers around him, she stretched out her hands for clothes and opened her mouth for food.

Half a year later, under the command of Li Zheng, Chang'an led troops to wipe out Zhang Yi's rebel army. Zhang Yi was killed in the rebellion, and his nephew Zhang Yifu led the remnants into the depths of the Yunnan forest.

Emperor Wei sent Tian Hua, the son of Taishi Tian, ​​as the appeasement envoy of Yunnan to appease the people after the war.

After Tian Hua, the new appeasement envoy of the imperial court, took office, Chang An set up a few tables in Qingshan Building to welcome Tian Hua. Many of the people in the seats were from the same class. Ji also found military officers to wait on them.

Behind the bead curtain, there is a separate list of Chang'an and Tian Hua drinking together.

Standing behind Chang'an was Liu Yiyi, adding food and wine to Chang'an from time to time, as gentle and considerate as if a pool of water reflected the shadow of flowers.

Tian Hua picked up the wine glass and smiled at Chang'an ambiguously:

"soulmate?"

Liu Yiyi blushed and covered her face with her sleeves and left quickly.

Chang An drank the wine in his glass, slowly shaking his head:

"I promised her that I would find a trustworthy lover for her."

Liu Yiyi, who opened the bead curtain, paused after hearing this, then closed her eyes and backed out.

Tian Hua made fun of Chang'an:

"Why do you have to speak so thoroughly in front of others?"

Chang'an touched a string of white and translucent beads on his wrist and said silently: "Why hang on to others if there is no such meaning."

Chang An saw through the bead curtain that all the military officers were having a good time at the banquet, and only Wu Shi was drinking alone.

After returning to Kunming, Young Master Li, who had rescued Wu Shi from Xianbei, was imprisoned by Master Li. It was difficult for Wu Shi to take a look. Now that everyone has a beautiful woman in his arms, Wu Shi inevitably looks lonely.

Until the corner of Chang An's eyes caught sight of Wu Shi leaving in a hurry, with a smile on his face, he personally poured a glass of wine for Tian Hua and chatted with Tian Hua with a smile:

"Did Mr. Tian bring anything new when he came out of Beijing this time?"

Tian Hua is the son of Tian Taishi, a young talent, and he is a high official in Xinjiang at a young age. Apart from his own ability, another important reason is that Tian Hua is an old man in the East Palace.And Chang'an made friends with Xueyi, the prince of the East Palace.

Tian Hua accepted Chang'an's wishes with a smile and then retreated everyone around him.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard that His Royal Highness was caught in an ambush by Zhang Yi and almost died. In front of the Emperor, he became very angry with the soldiers who came back to deliver the military report. He blamed the soldiers around you for not doing their duty and causing you to be injured."

Chang An remained silent, took the wine glass and did not speak, the string of beads on his wrist shone warmly under the candlelight.

How can Xue Yi's gentle and generous temperament not know that his own soldiers are innocent, and the soldiers who passed the military report are innocent.

"What else?" Chang An regained his composure and continued to ask Tian Hua.

Tian Hua blinked his eyes narrowly:

"The empress intends to let Lord Liu Xun's daughter enter the East Palace, but the crown prince has already rejected it. As for you, the emperor is very happy to know that your highness is safe and sound, and ordered the empress to find a young lady from Xun's family for you to be made a concubine."

Now Chang An couldn't even laugh.

After the dinner, Tian Hua took people away. Before leaving, he said to Chang'an with a half-smile:

"I heard that Lord Li Qingzhang has resigned from office and returned home."

Changan blinked:

"Oh, yes, that's a pity." Chang'an read Changxi's letter, but he didn't believe that Xue Yi did all these things. Now that he heard that Li Qingzhang resigned from office, Chang'an knew that it was Xue Yi who gave him the letter. explanation.

Tian Hua laughed loudly, waved his fan and led people away.

Tian Hua was responsible for the suppression of Zhang Yi's remnant army who remained in Yunnan, and Chang'an, who had stayed in Yunnan for more than half a year, was finally able to return to Beijing.

Chang'an's growth is obvious to all from the beginning of Xianbei to becoming the main force to pacify Yunnan. Since the founding of the Northern Wei Dynasty for more than 100 years, no one has been like Chang'an. He has experienced blood on the battlefield many times at the age of nearly 14.

For Emperor Wei, Chang'an is worthy of his pride, if there is no special report on his desk:

"On Qixi Festival, His Highness the Eighteenth Prince and the crown prince left the palace after being banned, and went to the Yuelao Temple in the suburbs. His Highness's love for the prince is like an affair between a man and a woman. This matter is a royal scandal...".

If this matter only involved one of the two, Emperor Wei would turn a blind eye, but now, it has become a question that Emperor Wei must choose who to protect.

In the Zhengde Hall at night, only the lights next to Emperor Wei's throne were on.Emperor Wei sat alone on the dragon seat, holding on to the golden dragon head on the chair without saying a word.

Chang Mitou quietly led Xueyi to Emperor Wei, and closed the palace door intimately when he left.

The moment the door was closed, Xue Yi turned her head to look at the crescent moon hanging high outside the hall. The figure of Chang An smiling at him seemed to be under the bright moon, and then slowly turned into a wisp of mist and disappeared into the night.

Xue Yi in Zhengde Palace asked Emperor Wei:

"Father, my son's affection for the eighteenth brother is definitely not more than that of brotherhood. Can you spare his life?"

Emperor Wei sighed:

"Xueyi, it has been more than a hundred years since the founding of the Great Wei. After the initial stabilization, we have reached a dangerous situation. I give you the right to trust you in the hope that we can cultivate a sage monarch for the Great Wei. Love is a thing I dare not let you bet."

Xue Yi shook his hands and lowered his head. He who accepted benevolence, righteousness, filial piety, governing the family, governing the country and the world since he was a child was speechless to refute.

What is it compared to the sacrifice of a country and a person?If Emperor Wei gave up on him today, he would have no complaints.But he didn't understand, what relationship does emotion have to the prosperity of a country?However, he cannot ask.

It's already a cold winter when the army returns to court, and the year is over.

The night before Chang'an came back from university, the capital was completely white, and the bright yellow glazed tiles of the imperial palace were covered with snow.

The chief stewards of the various palaces directed the young eunuchs to go to the rooms to remove the snow from the roof of the palaces. Everywhere was busy.

Xue Yi brought the python-patterned silver armor and cloud-chasing horse awarded to Chang'an by Emperor Wei. After Xuanwumen saw Chang'an, he lightly poked Chang'an's cheek and said with a smile:

"In a blink of an eye, the eighteenth brother is already this old."

Chang'an hugged Xue Yi fiercely in front of everyone, and whispered in Xue Yi's ear:

"Brother Prince, I miss you very much!"

Xue Yi's body froze, Wei Di's words seemed to ring in his ears: After ascending the throne, eighteen Liwei must be killed.

Full of horror, he wanted to push Chang An away, but seeing Chang An's contented expression, he moved his hands and stroked Chang An's waist, and said softly:

"So is Gu."

After Chang'an returned to the palace that night, Changjin and Changxi set up a table in the Huxin Pavilion of Huaying Lake to clean up the dust.

Chang'an called Xueyi, but Xueyi refused because there were many things in the East Palace.

On the shore of the Huxin Pavilion, there is a small road connecting the island on the lake. The small road is full of lights to illuminate the way for Chang'an.

Chang An, wearing a fox fur cloak, brought Liu Yiyi slowly and was almost kicked into the lake by Chang Jin:

"You are thick-skinned enough to make two brothers and a girl wait for you for so long!"

Chang An looked up and saw that Qi Yan was also at the banquet, looking at him with a smile on his cheek.

A charcoal fire was lit in the pavilion, Chang An handed the cloak to Liu Yiyi, revealing the navy blue robe inside.

Chang An lifted the hem of his robe and sat down, raising his eyebrows:

"Yo, little girl. Why are you here?"

"It is said that His Highness the Eighteenth Prince has a bright eye, a handsome face, and has repeatedly made military exploits. He is a young hero that everyone praises. Since ancient times, beautiful women love heroes. Of course, I want to take a look at the faces of heroes to see if they are really as heroic as in the legend. "

Qi Yan turned her eyes around Liu Yiyi who was behind Chang'an, crossed her hands and propped her chin, and tilted her head, making Chang'an disgusting.

Chang Jin almost spit out a sip of wine when he heard this, Chang Xi hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to Chang Jin, Chang An saw that Chang Jin felt uncomfortable for a moment.

Chang An glanced at Chang Xi with a smile, and glared at Qi Yan.

Qi Yan sticks out her tongue and picks up the wine glass, her face that was still smiling just now changed to a serious color:

"Congratulations on your safe return, Your Highness."

Changxi shook his head:

"We brothers let a little girl take the lead, come on, let's go together." After speaking, He Changxi stood up with a smile.

"Congratulations on your safe return."

Looking at the familiar faces, Chang An was a little emotional.

With a sore nose, he drank the wine in one gulp.

Under the dead tree by the lake outside the pavilion, Xue Yi led Wei Jie and some attendants standing silently holding wine and vegetables.

Laughter came from the pavilion from time to time, Wei Jie looked at Xue Yi carefully and said:

"Your Highness, are you not going in?"

Xue Yi waved her hand:

"Just send your stuff in."

Wei Jie looked at Xue Yi, looked at the pavilion, and waved his hand to lead the people towards the pavilion.

Xue Yi watched Wei Jie and the others leave before tightening the cloak on her body, stepping on the thick snow, walking towards the East Palace step by step.

The crescent moon hangs high, and when he comes, he usually walks alone on a dark road.
