Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Yun Shang nodded lightly, yawned and said: "Well, this time, because I wanted to settle the matter before leaving Jincheng, I was really in a hurry. If you are caring, you can deduce that this matter is my decision. hand. However, even if they know it well, without definite evidence, no one would dare to make irresponsible remarks.”

Qian Zhuo nodded, with a serious expression on his face: "This crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason will implicate the family members. I'm afraid those few people will regret it in their hearts before it's too late."

"Do you think they really have nothing to do, and ran to the early court to remonstrate with the empress? Since they chose to stand by Xia Houjing's side, the result was doomed." Yunshang said lazily.

Qianzhuo nodded lightly, walked to Yunshang's side and took off her clothes for Yunshang. Yunshang went to the soft couch and lay down, and fell asleep after a while.

When he woke up, he saw Qianzhuo standing by the bed playing with the flowers and plants in the vase, Yun Chang looked at the flowers in the vase, and laughed: "This is just like cutting the imperial garden when it is open." Come back with one."

Qian Zhuo smiled and said: "The maidservant is fine, so she said that the vase in the house has been vacant for a while, and went to cut some flowers, but she didn't know what kind of flowers the empress likes, so she cut some. "

Yunshang sat up, turned around after Qianzhuo, put down the scissors in his hand, took the clothes and stood on the edge of the collapse, waiting, while saying: "Sister Qinyi sent a message earlier, saying that Concubine Wan Due to the short time, according to some brochures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Concubine Nawan was originally a court lady who served by the side of a deceased concubine. The nineteenth prince was born and promoted to the throne. The time is a bit rushed, and more detailed information has not been found, and Sister Qin Yi said that she would try to find out."

Yun Chang nodded slightly, but there was a bit of clarity in her expression, the maid was in charge. If the younger sister Qi Ruihai mentioned really existed, it would most likely be Concubine Wan.

But, what exactly is the pill he gave to the nineteenth prince? Could it be to cure the disease of the nineteenth prince? But the Nineteenth Prince's disease, even if Xueyan or the ghost doctor is there, I'm afraid there is no way to deal with it. It is absolutely impossible for a pill to have such a miraculous effect.

Yunshang squinted her eyes. Although the nineteenth prince was young and sick, Yunshang didn't dare to take it lightly. After all, he is the youngest son of the late emperor, and Luo Qingyan said that as the eldest brother, it would not be appropriate to underestimate Ding too much. But if the nineteenth prince was a normal child, Yun Shang would feel worried again.

Yun Chang was thinking secretly in her heart, when she heard footsteps in the outer hall, the footsteps were a little hurried, the door curtain was lifted, Luo Qingyan walked in from the outside, her brows were tightly locked.

Seeing this, Yunshang was about to speak, but Luo Qingyan had already said: "Lingxi's situation is not good now. Now that the army is assembled, the food and grass are almost ready, and we will leave the city tomorrow."

"What happened?" Yun Chang asked quickly.

Luo Qingyan sighed lightly, and his brows never stretched: "A spies appeared in the army and stole the military defense map. Zhao Yingjie failed to find out in time, and Cangjue Qingsu seized several hidden points. Our army Nearly 80,000 soldiers were lost."

"How could something as important as the military deployment map be stolen? Can it be found through careful investigation?" The ** team was completely exposed under the eyes of Cang Jue Qingsu. However, it takes time to rearrange troops, and during this period, Cangjue Qingsu has a chance to attack.

Luo Qingyan shook his head: "Zhao Yingjie said that he has always kept the military defense map close to him, and never showed it to anyone, but it was stolen for some reason."

"In this way, the morale of the officers and men in Lingxi City may be even more depressed, so we should leave earlier." Yunshang sighed softly, "The things we should bring were packed early in the morning, and we can leave at any time. Tomorrow A few concubines will tell you about the affairs in the harem one by one, and then you can set off."

Luo Qingyan nodded lightly, sighed softly, his brows never stretched, Yunshang wanted to ask, how did Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and others deal with them, seeing Luo Qingyan like this, he didn't mind Open your mouth.

On the second day, Yunshang called Qin Yi, Qian Zhuo, Concubine Li, Concubine Cao and other principals together and gave simple instructions. On the morning of the third day, she went out together with Luo Qingyan the palace.

The personal conquest of the emperor and empress has been regarded as an extremely grand event from ancient times to the present. Early in the morning, Luo Qingyan showed that he took Yunshang to sacrifice to the sky, and then all the civil and military officials sent the emperor to the gate of the city to say goodbye. Chang and Luo spoke softly before setting off together.

Cangjue Qingsu heard the news of Luo Qingyan's personal conquest, so he wanted to see Luo Qingyan's panic when he saw his parents being imprisoned by his opponents, but he never thought of killing Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling, and it was considered Above is courtesy.

One and a half months, from Jincheng to Lingxi, the army marched for nearly a month and a half, and finally arrived at Lingxi City at the end of May. When Yun Chang got off the carriage, he saw Zhao Yingjie greeted him at the gate of the city with his personal guards.

Due to the continuous war, almost all the people in Lingxi City have left their homes and fled. This city is completely different from when Yunshang came last time. Almost all the shops on both sides of the street were closed. From the city gate to the city guard's mansion, there was hardly a pedestrian on the street.

Yun Shang sighed lightly, and put down the curtain of the carriage: "In a war, no matter whether you win or lose, it is the common people who suffer."

This time, it was Hua'er and Pei Lan who came to Lingxi with Yunshang. Hua'er seemed to realize something when she heard the words, and she sighed softly: "The slaves also lost their relatives because of the war. Let the war end soon."

When they arrived at the city guard's mansion, Luo Qingyan didn't stop for a moment, and rushed to the camp with Zhao Yingjie, and Yun Shang commanded the soldiers to help move the salute into the city guard's mansion.

This is the second time that Yunshang has stayed in the city guard's mansion of Lingxi City. Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked around. I am afraid that the city guard's mansion will not be taken care of for some days. It is also overgrown with weeds.

"I hope there won't be a third time." Yunshang sighed softly. Every time she came to Lingxi, it seemed that it was because of the war.

The suitcase was moved into the yard, Pei Lan and Hua'er were busy tidying up the house, and Yun Shang was wandering around the mansion with Bao'er in his arms. In the entire city guard's mansion, Yun Shang had never seen a single servant, only a housekeeper. The person in the room carefully glanced at Yun Chang, and then followed behind Yun Chang in silence.

Yun Chang wandered around for half an hour before opening her mouth: "General Zhao usually doesn't live in this mansion?"

The middle-aged man shook his head timidly, and replied softly: "The generals are all living in the camp. The city guard's mansion has been deserted for a long time. There are frequent wars, and there are no people in the city. What's the use of the city guard?" use."

Yun Shang nodded, turned around and said, "Go ahead, I'm back in the yard."

Back in the courtyard, Hua'er and Peilan were making the bed, and when they saw Yunshang, they said softly: "Your Majesty, wait for a while, the bed will be made soon, the servant just took a look, it seems that this courtyard is a little cleaner in this mansion. However, the kitchen is also full of dust, and Artemisia annua has already been cleaned."

Yun Chang nodded slightly, and sat down on the chair with Bao'er in his arms. The desire to end this war quickly became stronger.

Bao'er's eyeballs rolled around, as if she was also looking at the room. Yun Shang put Bao'er on a chair beside her, and Bao'er sat steadily, turned her head to look at Yun Shang, and then looked away again.

Luo Qingyan came back almost midnight, Baoer had already fallen asleep in the crib, and Yunshang was looking at the map under the lamp.

Luo Qingyan took off the cloak on his body, put it on the chair, walked to Yunshang and sat down, picked up the tea that Yunshang put on the table, took a few mouthfuls of tea, and then said softly: "The situation is a little better than I expected. Although 80,000 soldiers were lost due to the theft of the military defense map, Zhao Yingjie reacted very quickly and quickly re-arranged the troops. Taking advantage of the terrain of Lingxi City We won in several small-scale hand-to-hand battles. Before that, our army had a total of 230,000 people, and lost 80,000, and now we still have 150,000."

Yun Chang heard the words and nodded lightly: "The enemy army is about 350,000 people. This time, we brought 60,000 soldiers here, and there are still 100,000 on the way. Before the reinforcements arrive, we can do what Zhao Yingjie did before." That way, spread out all the soldiers, and don’t give Cang Jue Qingsu a chance to kill them all. When the reinforcements arrive, Cang Jue Qingsu won’t be able to take advantage of the numbers of the two armies.”

"I think so too." Luo Qingyan's eyes were full of approval, and he poured himself another cup of tea, and poured it full: "Zhao Yingjie is a soldier training material, I just walked around in the camp , The soldiers are very disciplined, and their spirits are also good."

Yun Chang laughed: "When I went to Kangyang City before, I found out that Kangyang City under the jurisdiction of General Zhao is much better than Qi Lang at that time, and everything is in order."

Yun Chang said, but there was worry in his eyes that could not be concealed: "Although we have not made a big show all the way, we have never hidden our whereabouts. I am afraid that Cangjue Qingsu will receive the news that we have arrived at Lingxi soon. I'm afraid he won't wait for us to recuperate. Father and mother, do you have any news?"

Luo Qingyan nodded: "Our detailed report in the Yelang army says that everything is fine for the two of them, but they are always in the Yelang army for a day, like a sword hanging over our heads. The Supreme Emperor He has been in power for thirty years, not to mention creating a prosperous dynasty, but at least the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the people and soldiers are very supportive. He can't have any accidents. At least, he can't have any accidents in the hands of the Yelang Kingdom. I have to find a way , rescue them first."

Yun Chang naturally understands this truth, but it is not as easy as it is said if she just wants to be rescued.

Luo Qingyan took a map and unfolded it to look at it. Yun Chang saw a lot of red dots marked on the map, so she leaned over her head: "These red dots are where we deploy our defenses?"

Luo Qingyan nodded lightly, Yunshang looked at it carefully for a moment, and almost wrote down the above points, then raised his head and asked: "Then Yelang Kingdom's marching troops, is there any news?"

"Yes, why not?" Luo said lightly, with a bitter smile on his face: "Cangjue Qingsu is very good, and now the whole army is here. He now has an army of more than 300,000, Knowing that we dare not attack rashly, if we disperse our forces, it will give us a chance."

Yun Shang's eyes fell on the point Luo Qingyan pointed at, which was a mountain called Agra.

"All the troops of the Yelang Kingdom are on this mountain?"

Luo Qingyan nodded lightly: "This mountain looks like nothing, but the side facing Lingxi City is extremely steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack."

Yun Chang frowned: "It's true that it's easy to defend and difficult to attack, but they can't just blindly defend. If they want to attack, they have to go down the mountain. After going down the mountain, if they are defeated, they want to withdraw. This mountain is It’s not easy. Isn’t this blocking your escape route?”

Luo Qingyan heard the words, frowned slightly, and remained silent for a long time, before saying: "Maybe it's because Cang Jue Qingsu feels that his army is strong, and there must be no time to retreat when he is defeated, but what Madam said is very true. , this is an opportunity."

After Luo Qingyan finished speaking, he put away the map: "It's too late today, and you haven't had a good sleep on the road these days, so you should rest earlier."

Luo said softly, put the map away, and began to undress: "From tomorrow onwards, I'd better live in the barracks, several generals often live in the barracks, live in the barracks, discuss things It's also more convenient."

Yun Chang was slightly startled, nodded, and then sighed: "The terrain of Lingxi is too flat, and there are mountains on both sides, which is not a favorable terrain. I will go for a walk tomorrow. Many places on this map are not perfect, and you can’t see anything without walking around yourself.”

Luo Qingyan turned his eyes to look at Yunshang, knowing that Yunshang had made up his mind, and he couldn't persuade him, so he smiled and said: "Thank you Madam, but Madam must be careful in everything."

Yun Chang agreed, walked to the couch and lay down, Luo Qingyan blew out the lights in the room.

Before dawn on the second day, Yunshang heard a voice from outside: "Report! Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation."

Yunshang turned over, Luo Qingyan quickly lifted the quilt and got up and went out, Yunshang heard a voice from outside: "Your Majesty, the emperor of Yelang Kingdom has come with troops to call for formation."

Luo Qingyan seemed to be afraid of disturbing Yunshang, so he deliberately lowered his voice, but Yunshang didn't hear what Luo Qingyan said clearly. After a long while, he heard Luo Qingyan approaching the room again, without holding the lamp, shaking Rusting as if wearing clothes.

Yun Shang raised her head, looked at the vague figure and said, "The concubine is awake, Your Majesty, please light the lamp."

"I'm already dressed, you can sleep a little longer." Luo said softly, took the saber hanging from the bedpost and left the room.

Yun Shang tossed and turned, worried about the war outside, and couldn't fall asleep, so she simply called Hua'er to get up and light the lamp, and put on a coat to get up. Bao'er also woke up, Yunshang asked Hua'er to make a bowl of corn paste to feed Bao'er, Yun Shang then handed Bao'er to Hua'er, stood up and told Peilan, "Go get Bring a set of men's clothes, prepare some horses, and ask dozens of hidden guards to accompany me to go out together, and I will personally explore the surrounding terrain."\u003c
