[Strategy of Yanxi Palace] Another year of spring

Niu Hulu Mansion.

The ladies who heard the news rushed to the front yard, and saw a group of people in uniform standing at home, all standing on one side in an orderly manner, with their heads slightly lowered.All the servants in the courtyard were confused, and when they saw the master coming, they all backed away or came forward. The ladies considered the situation uncertainly, but the person who walked in the front hurriedly walked over, his eyes wandered around the crowd, and suddenly freeze.

There was a person lying on the ground where the house slave retreated, swearing constantly, trying to break free from the rope on his body, when he heard the movement, he raised his head, met the woman's gaze, and immediately yelled: "Er Niang! Let them let go!" Let me go!"

Mrs. Niu Hulu saw that not only was there a lot of bruises on his face, but also bloodstains on his body. He could hardly see his eyebrows and eyes. It was too horrible to look at. She was furious and turned her head: "Who? Who beat my son like this? "

"It's me." A female voice sounded, and the group of people dressed as servants spread out, giving way to a slender figure.

The eldest madam was distracted by the only son all the way here, so she never noticed the group of strong men guarding her. Now that she recognized her, her brows frowned, and the sternness in her eyes faded a little. Ask openly:

"Young Madam, what is the meaning of this? What mistake did my son make, so that you beat him like this in the street regardless of his face? Even if his Ama made a mess, Niu Hulu is still there, and our mother and son are still alive." As for being reduced to the point where everyone can be bullied!"

"Ma'am, I haven't said this yet, how can you say it so confidently?" Shi Chun stepped forward with a cold face: "You might as well ask your son, he is speaking in front of my Fucha family today. said something."

Before the eldest lady could turn her eyes on her son, Duowang, who was being cared by several aunts at home, gained confidence again. With anger and shame intertwined, he cast his gaze viciously, as if poisoned: " The Lord is right! I, Ama, was dealt with by the emperor. In the final analysis, it was because of that villain Fu Heng. Jinchuan was originally a land of tigers and wolves. Is it all Ama's fault for losing the battle? I just can't get angry. Open your eyes, if the retribution falls on Fu Heng, who can you blame?"

The faces of the wives of Niu Hulu's family changed drastically, and the aunts immediately scolded Duowang, but Duowang didn't care, he panted a few times, and showed a distorted smile, his face was dripping with blood, showing a bit of ferocity .

The eldest lady was taken aback, no wonder the young lady of the Fucha family, who had always kept a low profile, would make a big fuss today.Duowang has been pampered and pampered by her since he was born. In addition, he is the only son of Neqin, and everyone in the house obeys him, so he developed his domineering temper today. In addition, Ama's conviction was too sudden to accept it. It's normal to do this with resentment.

In fact, she already knew that Duowang had done too much, and if it was reported to the emperor's ears, she might not escape punishment, but after all, she was the only son she loved the most, so her heart instinctively turned towards Duowang.What's more, if you think about it carefully, what is the difference between Fu Heng's life and death when he said that he is dead?Even though the death of her husband Neqin had nothing to do with Fu Heng, it was still inextricably linked, and the clan members were more or less muttering in their hearts.What's more, the words have been said, and people have been beaten like this. As a mother, she has never done anything to her parents and children. It is enough for her junior to beat the young master of the Niu Hulu family. What else do you think, is it possible that you still want to send Duowang to prison?Even if the emperor sees that Ahma has no credit and hard work in his life, he can no longer touch Niu Hulu's family and Neqin's lineage, let alone let a younger generation of her Fucha family step on the door and press his head to force her. Bow down to the prestigious wives?

Because of this, she apologized, holding a disapproval in her heart that she was not afraid of any consequences: "Duowang is used to being outspoken and offended the young lady, but he just lost his father not long ago, and he was in grief. Fainted. I will strictly discipline him and prevent him from going to the streets to cause trouble again. I hope that the young lady can see my shame and not care about him. "

It's just a pity that the person who came to the door today has never thought of being kind.

There was the sound of panic-stricken blocking from the servants, and a group of people dressed as guards appeared at the promenade, with cold blades in their hands. The servants of Niu Hulu's family chased after them all the way but did not dare to approach.Twenty or so tall men stopped behind Shi Chun, their bodies were unusually strong, and the discipline and uniformity in their movements made the wives of Niu Hulu's family choke.Seeing the scene in front of them, they stared wide-eyed, almost in disbelief.

Ruyi trots back to Shichun's side.

The eldest lady finally changed her expression. Now that things are up to now, it is almost impossible to settle the matter quietly. The young lady of the Fucha family must have planned to be serious with her at the beginning, otherwise why would she call this group of obvious origins? The people who discussed it came to demonstrate.

"Fubing?" She still couldn't believe it, she couldn't understand where the arrogance of this little woman without a pillar came from to challenge Niu Hulu: "The Fucha family, you have made up your mind to tear yourself apart from the Niu Hulu clan." Have you broken your face? Gouzi made a mistake, I feel ashamed as my mother, and I feel sorry for the many shocks that have happened to the Fucha family. If you insist on taking advantage of Duowang's momentary fault to make trouble here unreasonably, then it's beyond your control."

Since it is obvious that you want to tear your face, why bother to say these words to whitewash the peace.Shi Chun helped Yuyan on her head. If she took a step back here today, then in the future, the entire Manchu family in Beijing would dare to step on Fucha's family.

She said calmly:

"Now that the eldest lady has mentioned Mrs. Neqin, the younger generation wants to clear things up with you, so as to save the Niu Hulu family from blaming my innocent husband for the cause and effect, and splashing our husband and wife with dirt for nothing. The water has stained the lintel of my Fucha family."

The eldest lady was shocked, she did not expect that she would exaggerate this matter to such an extent, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at the young woman across from her seriously.

Nalan Shichun's face was shrouded gracefully by the shadow of the high eaves, and Yubai's face was gloomy and quiet, showing a kind of glamorous chill.

She said softly: "My husband Fu Hengyuan went to Jinchuan. Since he arrived at the front line, he has dealt with the problems left by Mr. Neqin and arranged his ranks. He has never settled down for a day. Sha Luoben attacked at night, and he is also the first. No, life and death are unknown, but as a commander, he took the lead; as a subject, he did his best. So far, he is worthy of the emperor and the Qing Dynasty. Even if he died because of this, it would be shrouded in horse leather. I don’t ask him He enjoys such a good name and praise, but those who are protected by him in Beijing should not have the face to talk about his life or death."

She looked at the people in front of her, her eyes swept over Duowang who had a hateful face, and her tone gradually became colder.

"Neqin was deeply favored by the emperor, but he did not make any achievements in the Jinchuan campaign for two years. He came to rule the army, commanded too much, and would only damage the soldiers. The rats could not get out, but he was self-willed. Jinchuan can develop to today's situation. Your Excellency deserves a lot of credit. Even the emperor only hates to the extreme. Returning to the capital to ask him to kill him is already the greatest kindness. I don’t know why the young master has the face to resent Fu Heng? Don’t you think Mr. Neqin has made a great contribution to all the sufferings you have suffered? Why is right and wrong turned upside down now, black and white are indistinguishable, isn’t this kind of behavior extremely shameless and ungrateful?”

"You—" The young lady's complexion was beyond description of simple anger, and the surrounding Mrs. Niu Hulu also showed anger, but Shi Chun sneered and interrupted her with a loud voice.

"It was my husband who took over the mess left by Mr. Neqin when he was in a hurry, it was my husband who reversed the losing streak of the Jinchuan Campaign, it was my husband who took the lead in going deep into the enemy's hinterland, or it was my husband who lured the enemy alone and died unknown The sky is watching, and so is Your Majesty. When the soldiers approach the city, Da Furen, who is the rat who is greedy for life and fears death, and who is the loyal and brave general who will sacrifice his life to serve the country?"

Fucha Fourth Young Madam's eyes were sharp, and she glanced at the Niu Hulu clan's people without any other meaning, but people dare not look directly at that gaze.

"I, a son of the Fucha family, serve the country with blood and stand upright, so I am fearless. I will enter the palace and tell the whole story to the Holy One. I have my own conclusions about whether it is right or wrong. I don't want to entangle you too much about this matter. Although you have betrayed my husband, I don't want to be compared with you again."

she said calmly.

The cold wind swept through, and there was a deathly silence in the courtyard.Embarrassment and unwillingness intertwined in the eyes of the eldest lady, she opened her mouth to argue, Shi Chun's eyes met her, the eldest lady opened her mouth to meet her gaze, glanced at the guards behind her, and took a step back with a little fear.

Shi Chun didn't want to stay here any longer, she finished what she had to say, and turned around to leave.There were some noises in the corridor, and she looked up to see that it was Niu Hulu Ali Gun striding over.The surrounding Niu Hulu women seemed to see the backbone, and called "third brother" and "little uncle". Ali Gun glanced at the several relatives who were embracing him, then looked at Shichun in a blink of an eye, and walked towards her.

"Uncle!"

The eldest lady frowned and shouted.

Ali Gon seemed to have never heard of it, and he looked sideways at Duowang who shrank towards the female relatives, his eyes were cold.

Duowang suddenly shuddered.

After Ama's death, the third uncle was the most promising member of the family, and the ancestors loved and relied on him. Duowang was afraid of him, so now he dared not act presumptuously in front of him.

Ali Gon looked away, looked at Shichun in front of him, lowered his head, clasped his fists and said, "It's been a long time since we left in Taiyuan, how is Young Madam?"

Shi Chun softened his expression, nodded at him, but didn't say anything.

Ali Gun felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, he paused, and changed the subject: "I've heard about Duowang, and it's all his fault, even a beating is fine." He glanced warningly and his face changed. The eldest lady fixed her in place with her gaze, and turned her gaze back: "I just don't know, what kind of explanation does the young lady want?"

Shi Chun: "Don't bother, I have decided to tell the emperor about this matter, and how to deal with it is entirely up to the emperor."

Ali Gon was silent for a moment. After all, he was the only son of the elder brother. He asked, "That's the only way?"

Shi Chun: "My lord, don't bother to discuss it."

Ali Gun sighed inwardly, nodded, and stepped aside to get out of the way.

When Shichun walked out, Ali Gun turned around and followed her to send her out of the mansion.

When he reached the gate, he stopped.

"Although I want to apologize to you, I'm afraid you don't want to stay here any longer. Duowang, I will bring him into the palace and be punished. He has to blame for everything this time. No matter what the Holy Majesty decides, Niu Hulu's family will not There is a second word, don't worry about the Queen Mother, it's because we didn't discipline him well."

After a pause, he pursed his lips: "Fu Heng...I'm sorry."

Shi Chun smiled: "What does it have to do with you? Thank you today. It's just that Duowang is your nephew after all. If you do what you do today, won't it be difficult in the clan?"

Ali Gun shook his head: "When the eldest brother was here, the people in the mansion pampered him too much, so he developed such a temperament. It's good to let him suffer a lot through this matter, after all, Niu Hulu's family can't protect him for the rest of his life. If it continues, it will lead to catastrophe."

Shi Chun nodded, not very interested in this topic, she said goodbye to Ali Gon, turned and returned to the carriage.

Ali Gon stared sideways at the group of government soldiers coming out of the gate, his gaze was thoughtful and probing.When the carriage started to move, he turned his gaze away, watched the carriage disappear into the distance, and then looked away.

"Third Master, I'm afraid that you just offended the eldest lady, and the situation inside must be ugly now." The close servant said.

Ali Gon turned and walked back, his face was as cold as water: "A loving mother is a loser, my brother failed to correct it before, today I will help him to fix the family."

While speaking, he reached out for the horsewhip in the servant's hand.

On the second day, Shi Chun hadn't handed over the invitation, someone from the palace hastily brought her into the palace.

She followed the grand lady into the hall, and the imperial concubine greeted her.

"Okay, how could such a thing happen? That Duowang is really outrageous. The emperor was furious when he first heard about it. Don't worry, Young Madam, I will give you an explanation for this matter, so that Mr. Fu Heng won't suffer such grievances for nothing. "

Shi Chun raised his eyes and looked at the imperial concubine who was holding her hand with pity on her face.

Last year, the noble concubine Xian Huifanara was officially promoted to the title of imperial concubine, and she was in charge of the six palaces alone. She defeated all the heroes and had the last laugh. Now she is the most powerful woman in the whole palace, no different from the queen.

Shi Chun followed her words and thanked the emperor and imperial concubine. Later, he understood that what happened yesterday has already been recorded in the imperial history. After all, it was a big event that the Niuhulu family and the Fucha family used government soldiers to fight in the street, and the rumors had spread all over the capital. .When the emperor saw the memorial in the early court, he smashed a white jade paperweight on the spot, and ordered Ali Gun to come to see him on the spot.

This matter alarmed the Empress Dowager, at first she was anxious to find the emperor to mediate, but in the end she didn't know what the emperor had said to her, so the Empress Dowager returned to the palace and vowed not to interfere in this matter.

The news came back from the front hall that Duowang was thrown into the clan mansion for cursing the generals on the battlefield, and Niu Hulu's family was also severely punished. Shichun exhaled and smiled in response to the smiling face of the imperial concubine.

After all, he was Neqin's only son, and the royal family could never kill him like this, but if he was thrown into the clan's mansion, Duowang would have to grind his skin if he survived.What's more, the eldest lady was deprived of her imperial order. With the temperament of people in Beijing, it is inevitable to make trouble, and Ali Gun is determined to ignore it, so the life of this young master must not be easy.

She can be considered satisfied if she can do this.

Then she was summoned by the emperor, and when she entered the side hall of Qinzheng Hall, she didn't see Duowang or Niu Hulu's family, only the emperor sat on it, looking at her uncertainly.

Shi Chun was silent for a while, bowed his head and knelt down to salute.

The emperor's voice came from above: "I didn't expect that this fourth young lady, who has always been quiet, would have such a tough side."

Shi Chun lowered his eyes: "There is no news about Fu Heng, but this servant can't be depressed. If he hears these things after he comes back, how sad he will be."

The emperor was silent for a moment. These days, not to mention the people in the court, even he felt that Fu Heng had little chance of reincarnation.Fu Heng is the courtier he loves the most, and also a relative he regards as his younger brother. Hearing the farce today, he felt extremely angry. It is not uncommon for Niu Hulu to be severely punished in such a disregard of the empress dowager's relationship with his relatives. Sad and indignant at the injustice suffered by the martyrs.But it was rare that Fu Heng's daughter-in-law still firmly believed that Fu Heng was alive, the emperor couldn't help being moved, his stern expression softened, showing appreciation.

Such a strong character is the style of the Fucha family. This daughter-in-law, Fu Heng married very well.

Later, the emperor told the queen mother about this matter. Although the queen mother promised not to intervene in Duowang's disposal, she couldn't help sighing: "Emperor, the Ai family knows that Duowang must be punished severely, otherwise the hearts of the soldiers will be chilled. But the four There is something wrong with the young lady. It is also against the law to beat people in the street. Let the Ai family see that instead of receiving punishment, it is better to draw a line to let Niu Hulu's family and Fucha's family get closer and repair the relationship between the two, isn't it? better?"

The emperor said: "Do you want the two families to get married?" He smiled and shook his head: "The Fucha family will definitely not be willing, even if I propose a marriage, they probably will not be willing, that would be a feud. "

The queen mother was a little stunned: "Why? It's just a dispute between the family. The Fucha family has many branches. Why are they so united because of the grievances of the family?"

The emperor chuckled and sighed: "The Fucha family, regardless of the main branch, are all the same strong bones. If it is another family, I would like to be a peacemaker, but this Fucha family is fine."

The emperor shook his head, remembering Nalan's words.

The Fucha family is loyal, brave, courageous, and fearless.

If the style of the family is like this, it is no wonder that he can have such a backbone.

Jinchuan.

The scorching sun shines down, illuminating a barren area, the yellow sand reflects the light, and the surrounding fields are silent.

A mighty long line was walking on this barren land, with flags waving, with a big "Yue" character embroidered on it.

The first person rode the horse forward, slowed down a little, and lowered his head to study the map in his hand, obviously a little anxious.

"Chang Ming, you can see that this place is desolate. There is no human habitation, and it is obviously a desert. It is noon now, and it is difficult to judge the direction of progress, but looking at the direction of the map, there should be a swamp not far away. If we follow that direction, we will walk for half a day. Can go to camp."

He handed the map to the people around him, and his subordinates took it over to check it, and agreed: "Yes, we must be very close to the camp. General, we have been marching for two days, and the soldiers have not closed their eyes, and entered this desert again. It's really exhausting. Why don't we rest for a while, the water we brought should be enough to rehydrate before arriving at the camp."

Yue Zhongqi frowned, but when she looked back, the soldiers behind her were already exhausted. Although the lieutenants were better, they seemed to be supporting them by force.He sighed in his heart, knowing that haste makes waste, so he agreed.

Forced by military discipline, the soldiers were not overly overjoyed, but they all breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down in place one after another, recovering the physical strength that had been overdrawn earlier in the morning.

Only Yue Zhongqi was a little frowning, looking not far away, with indelible worry and eagerness in her eyes.

His lieutenant general and also his eldest son, Yue Changming, saw his expression and handed him a water bottle: "Father, let's take a rest. Before entering Sichuan, we encountered Sha Luoben's ambush, so we were delayed for a while. But now it is really not far from the camp, and now neither we nor Sha Jun have the upper hand, so you don't have to worry too much."

Yue Zhongqi took the kettle, took a big sip of water, and sighed: "Oh, although our army released the news that Langka was captured, Sha Luoben did not dare to act rashly, but I always suspect that this is what we released to confuse Sha Luoben." False news. This is the news that came when we passed by the last border town. It has been two days since we entered the battlefield. Although the orderly sent to the front line has not returned, we have not heard the sound of soldiers and horses. It should be The battle has not yet started, which means that the front line captured Langka and did not take any action. What's more, the coach chased Langka and disappeared. It stands to reason that Langka has been captured, so there should be news about whether Fu Heng is alive or dead. Occupying such an advantage but not taking advantage of the victory to send troops, I can't help but doubt the truth of the news that Langka was captured."

"Father is saying that it's possible that this is just false news to stabilize Sha Luoben?" Yue Changming's heart jumped violently, in disbelief: "Because the whereabouts of the coach are unknown?"

Yue Zhongqi nodded: "General Wu Ya should be worried that Sha Luoben would take the opportunity to take the initiative to attack, so he would spread the false news that Langka was captured. Langka is Sha Luoben's only nephew. In our hands, we will ignore the current advantageous situation and stand still. That's why I want to arrive at the camp earlier. Two days ago, the imperial court's messenger gave me the privilege to temporarily hold the commander's seal when the commander disappeared, and the Eight Banners The army must first have a commander to stabilize the morale of the army, otherwise, when Sha Luoben reacts, I am afraid that our army will be in trouble."

Yue Changming also frowned. Just as Yue and his son were deep in thought, they suddenly heard the commotion of the soldiers in the front row.

Yue Zhongqi quickly stood up, squinted her eyes and looked forward, a deputy general got on the horse and rushed to the front of the team, shouting to the rushing troops: "Who is in front?"

No one responded, two war horses came running, and as they approached, everyone found that their hair had fallen off in large pieces, and their bodies were covered with mud and blood wounds.Before anyone can see clearly, the yellow sand rises not far away, the sound of horseshoes rolls in, and a small group of people breaks into sight.

Yue Zhongqi and Yue Changming had already mounted their horses, and the army was also on alert. General Yue paid more attention to the group of people behind who were obviously more powerful, and suddenly heard the general who was shouting in front just now exclaimed: "There's someone right away! It's the armor with the yellow flag!"

Ok?

Yue Changming was young, and he looked at the approaching horses with extraordinary eyesight. He recognized that the saddles were in the shape of Qing soldiers. One of the horses had a person crouching on its back, and the other came running along with it.The man on the horse was wearing the armor of the Eight Banners, so he ordered the general to cut off the man on the horse and carefully identify it.

Yue Zhongqi heard it too, and she reacted and immediately ordered the archers to shoot at the horses of the opposite team.Since the person being pursued is likely to be one's own army, then the enemy's army is undoubtedly on the other side.

As soon as the people on the other side saw this large army, they hurriedly turned their horses and prepared to flee, but Yue Zhongqi had a large number of troops, and they were reinforcements that had not been wasted. After the horse was shot in the leg, he immediately tried to run away using the familiar terrain, but was shot in the leg and shoulder by several stray arrows, fell to the ground, and was surrounded by the head of the Sento who rode up on horseback.

Suddenly, the head of the thousand households sounded a very surprised voice: "General Yue! This... this person looks very much like Langka in the album!"

Yue Zhongqi and the eldest son looked at each other. Most of the soldiers in the reinforcements had never seen Sha Luoben and Langka, but these rebellious portraits had been spread to the soldiers before the march. If Langka is really caught now, then At first the man...

General Yue rushed to the front to confirm the identity of the captured man, while Yue Changming took a few steps to snatch the man with the yellow flag armor from the deputy general, carefully checked his attire, and finally found the scarf sewn on the back of his neck in the internal test of the armor. Identity Information.

When the words "Fu Cha Fu Heng" jumped into his sight, Yue Changming's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stretched out his hand to the side of the man's bloody neck, almost delighted to feel that extremely weak pulsation.He raised his head immediately, Yue Zhongqi had confirmed the identity of the prisoner, and looked over.

"Father, it is Lord Fucha! He is still alive!"

Yue Changming shouted loudly.

General Yue restrained Langka who was in a coma and was tied up, and he couldn't hide his excitement and ordered: "The whole army mounts immediately! We rush to the camp at full speed! Now Langka is in our hands, and the commander has also found it. We must hurry up and get the news out." Bring back!"

Yue Changming helped the coach of the Fucha family to ride a horse together and moved forward rapidly. He seemed to lower his head and saw that the faintly breathing man opened his eyes slightly, revealing a glimmer of light in his eyes.

He opened his mouth: "I am Yue Changming, you have met reinforcements, and now we are rushing to the camp, Marshal, hold on!"

But Fu Heng didn't hear his words. With the last of his strength, he swept to the military flag not far behind. When he saw the word "Yue", he breathed a last sigh of relief, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and then completely lost. awareness.
