Princess and the General

Chapter 453: Donate two silver (two more)

Chi Fei led the army to Gu Shubai, and the matter was a joy.

At the same time, the insurgents stationed in the south of Lin'an were sorrowful.

Many of them have never seen snow before. Lingnan has four seasons like spring, and it may not be possible to see snow once in decades.

At the beginning of seeing such a crowd of goose feather snow, the crowd was very novel, and later the freezing disease was added, only to find that the snow seemed beautiful but could make the silent silence.

Like a gentle knife, a knife cuts human life.

Yin Shuo didn't pay much attention to this. He set a strict military order requiring the soldiers not to leave the post without permission. Even if it was cold, he must stick to his post to prevent Gu Shubai's army from attacking.

As long as the overall situation in the military is not chaotic, it doesn't matter what's next.

"You can find out, is there really no intention to open the gate in Lin'an?"

Yin Shuo stood in the snow, with dead trees covering the lone grave. When he was white and weak, he stood in front of him.

"Yes, son. Ning Di avoids Gu Shubai. In order to prevent him from entering the city, even the original Zhenjiang garrison was turned away. Now the thousand garrison in Zhenjiang voted for Beili, and Ning emperor was even more unpopular. . "

Yin Shuo nodded slightly, "It is also expected that Ningdi would not open the city gate. In this way, the situation in Huzhou will be safe. Don't worry about Gu Shubai's surprise attack. We will have an advantage if the city gate of Lin'an is not opened for a day. . "

His subordinates slowly raised their heads, worrying, "But our generals are not stable. Not only have they been suppressed by the Beili Army for a long time, but they also have to suffer from the frost in the severe cold weather. Twelve more people were frozen to death today , Son, should n’t we add some coats and quilts to the weak soldiers? "

"Those who are old and sick are frozen to death and frozen to death, and some rations can be reduced."

Yin Shuo was unmoved, and waved his hand to signal his retreat and walked deep into the snow-covered grave.

The subordinates stood behind him, shivering unconsciously.

There are many lonely graves on this mountain, mostly civilians who have not been able to escape after the war. When they die, they can only be buried randomly on this mountain, without a monument.

The people heard that this mountain is still a treasure of feng shui, and a nobleman from the imperial court was also buried here, and it is impossible to know where they are buried.

In this rough and troubled season, it is good to have a place to hold the bones. Who cares if it is a treasure of feng shui?

Yin Shuo also listened to the people's discussions. After sending people to inquire, he learned the specific location. There was a small valley in the depths of this mountain road.

In the winter season, the valley is warmer than the outside, the snow has not covered the entire ground, and some places have started to melt.

Looking at it from a distance, Yin Shuo picked a branch from the side and propped it up into the valley.

Walking all the way to the deepest part of the valley, a tall tomb appeared in front of him, with a stone monument standing there, roughly carved with the words "Tomb of Ning's Royal Family Taboo Danyang".

Such a nondescript epitaph, her life is disgraceful, and she is not even qualified to be buried in the tomb. Only one vague "royal daughter" remains on the tombstone-

Not even a princess, long princess.

If it weren't for the word Danyang, Yin Shuo couldn't believe the woman who had once been honorable and unparalleled. Now he was lying in this little valley where no one cares about, wearing an unknown epitaph.

He squatted slowly, brushing the vacant space in front of the monument with a sleeve and the snowflakes on it.

On the side was a small incense burner, which looked like it was originally placed here for sacrifice, but was overwhelmed by heavy snow. He lifted the incense burner upright in front of her tombstone, but there was no respect.

He couldn't help laughing.

"I came here to find you, but I didn't bring incense and I couldn't offer you one. I don't know if I subconsciously didn't want this tomb to be yours, or I didn't even want to give you this affection."

There was no reply from the cold tomb, and there was only the roaring wind in the valley.

He simply sat on the floor, leaning against Princess Danyang's tombstone, and said to himself, "This mountain is full of lonely tombs. Compared to them, your tomb is tall and repaired very firmly. But I think you are about Dissatisfied. Because this is not the emperor's mausoleum, the noble identity of your princess is not written on the tombstone, and even an underground mausoleum is not dug. Compared with the real tombs of the descendants of the royal family, it is shabby. "

The chill passed to him from the tombstone against which he was leaning. He shuddered unconsciously, then took a jug of wine from his waist and drank two into his mouth.

"Keke"

While covering his mouth and coughing, he poured the wine from the jug on the snowy place before the grave, and the ice and snow melted wherever the hot wine was.

Yin Shuo coughed and laughed, "What am I talking about? You have long died, where do you know what your tomb looks like, and how can you be satisfied or dissatisfied? If you die, you will feel it. I am most dissatisfied with marrying me. I am so eager in my life that I will lie here alone and lonely.

He smiled, tears oozing from the corners of his eyes, and his pale face slipped to the corner of his mouth, seeping through his cracked lips.

In the distance, several subordinates stood by the dead wood outside the valley and waited for him, worried that he would be unpredictable by himself, but did not dare to approach.

After all, Princess Danyang is the only wife in his name. Whether the wife loves or dislikes it is not something others can do.

"Fortunately, this tombstone is written about a royal woman, not my wife Yin Yin. Just like this tombstone, when we have never met in this life, there is no relationship. If you see you in the next life, you Come to torture me, how about you forcing me to die? "

Yin Shuo supported the sour body and sat up slowly from the ground.

Wine can warm up but not his heart. His heart is colder than this tomb, and harder than this tombstone. No one in the army can understand it.

He stiffened his legs and slowly walked out of the valley.

"Son, would you like to rebuild a mausoleum for the elder princess, or change the tombstone?" The subordinates waiting outside Gu saw him coming out and asked.

Yin Shuo ignored it, his face was as cold as ice and snow, and looking at the valley far behind, the tomb was invisible.

"No, it's fine."

"General, I think those people in the rebels are too cold. Where can I still have the strength to fight? Not to mention Chinese New Year, I think they are planning to shrink back and wait for the Spring Festival?"

The war has not stopped, but Gu Shubai's army is peaceful. The soldiers have also prepared the Spring Festival couplets and New Year's goods, and they are ready to spend a simple year in the army.

Gu Shubai did not stop them. Zhang Chiyoufang was the method of governing the army, but he did not agree with Yan Yan's words.

"You are wrong. The more everyone knows that the insurgents can't stand freezing, the more likely Yin Shuo will use this opportunity to fight back. You must understand that he is a politician and not a military general, and he will only bring his thoughts to the court fight Bing, you don't care about his soldiers freezing to death in this season, do you understand? "

auzw.com Yan Yiyi said, "The general means that we thought they would not dare to send troops, and Yin Shuo deliberately made us think so. When we were relaxed, he secretly attacked Lin'an? "

"Wait when we relax?"

Gu Shubai smiled, pointing at the soldiers who posted the Spring Festival couplet outside the account, "Are you still waiting? Isn't our army relaxed enough?"

Yan Chun was encouraged by posting the Spring Festival couplets. Originally, everyone just wanted to order some peanuts and sunflower seeds to drink tea, but Yan Huan ordered the Chinese calligraphy to write the Spring Festival couplets in red paper to post, and let the cook's servants cut the windows. .

Fortunately, those servant women couldn't do this, otherwise the military didn't know what they would be dressed up for.

Yan Zheng blushed immediately. "Then I told them to stop posting and be prepared to fight at any time!"

He said that he would rush out and be stopped by Gu Shubai, "No need. Let them post as much as possible. Yin Shuo wants us to relax, then we will relax and show him. Only when we see our relaxation, he will Will relax. "

Fortunately Yan Yan followed Gu Shubai for a long time, and after a while thinking about the logic of his lingering and understanding, he immediately smiled and said, "So, I'm crooked and doing a good thing, right?"

Gu Shu gave him a vain glance, and his cocky tail lifted up immediately.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "You did the right thing. The soldiers of Beili came all the way to Dongling, but after seeing the New Year, they could not go home and reunite with their parents. You always feel homesick, and you bring them to live It's very lively, and that's exactly what compassionate soldiers do. "

Yan Zheng only smiled and touched his own head, a little embarrassed.

Gu Shubai continued: "But don't let everyone overplay. The alert should still be alert, the preparation should continue to prepare. Only wait for Master Chen to persuade Ningdi to open the gate of Lin'an, and then he can turn to defend."

When Chi Fei heard this, he said, "General, what if he would not open the gate in the end?"

"Then use the second strategy you have prepared."

Gu Shu doesn't change his color. Obviously, he has already considered all the possibilities. He lifted his eyebrows, Yan Yan and Chi Fei both thoughtfully.

He couldn't help smiling, "What are you still thinking about? The Spring Festival couplet on the big account hasn't hung up yet."

"How is Dongling's situation?"

As the year approaches, Yufu becomes more concerned about the situation in Dongling, and he will ask him every three minutes.

On the morning of this day, when Chen Jingxing came forward to play the newspaper, his face was very ugly. "Your Majesty, Ning Di is too much! The court tried every way to persuade him to open the gate of Lin'an to let the army pass. He refused to live or speak. Pointing directly at my Beili's intention to capture Lin'an. What happened next was bright and clear. Except for the ten major towns and surrounding areas that were promised to Beili, we did not take more than one city. Ning Emperor even insulted me Beili so much! "

Yu Fu knows that Chen Jingxing is a hard-working faction. If he can't do all he can, he won't raise the matter in the court, exposing his incompetence.

It seems that Ning Chengzhi was so stubborn that Gu Shubai led his army into the city.

Yufu bowed his head slightly, thinking about how to deal with this matter, and then saw Tian Yunpo stand up and say, "Your Majesty, there is another thing related to this, and the minister wants to put forward a proposal for the ministers to discuss and to make a ruling."

"Teacher, please."

Tianyun broke: "This time the army was stationed outside the city of Lin'an, the grain and grass were worn out. It is extremely cold this winter, and the front has been stretched too long. It is not easy to transport grain and grass from Lin'an to Lin'an. Is it possible to supplement the forage with other quicker and more effective methods? "

One is the inability to pass through Lin'an City, and the other is the difficulty in transporting grain and grass.

Yufu nodded and said, "Lin'an is the East Emperor's capital after all, and Ning Emperor has such concerns. He is not incomprehensible. As a prince, Hong Chen has always been good at diplomacy. If there is no way for him, this matter only I'm afraid to step back and ask for it. "

Tianyun broke: "How to step back and ask for it?"

The book of the Ministry of War was about to be listed, and I only listened to Yufu said, "It's very simple, bypassing Lin'an City. I know that the terrain of Lin'an will take a lot of painstaking work. By the way, General Gu's rich experience in battles, he must have the best Routes and decisions are detoured, and this battle is won. "

She spoke with ease and clarity, and she clearly believed in Gu Shubai's ability.

The Ministry of Propriety and the House of Government have successively been preparing for the wedding, and the Ministers of North Korea and China also heard about it, so it is not surprising to hear Yufu's words.

How could he have entrusted his life if he did not trust his ability?

Tianyun broke down, and the book of the Ministry of War has already listed: "Her Majesty, His Majesty's thoughts are the same as Gu Jiajun's thoughts. This is the report that the court has just received. General Gu's intention is to detour Lin'an City. In Huzhou, the army is ready. His Majesty and Gu Jiajun really have a sense of conscience, thinking of going somewhere! "

Tianyun Po suddenly glanced at him, Shang Bingshu regretted his words, busyly bowed his head and retreated.

Yu Fu smiled, "Since General Gu has been prepared, it can't be better. As for the transportation of grain and grass that Taishi just raised, does Taishi already have an idea?"

Tian Yun broke his gaze and arched his hand: "Chen means that you can buy it from the Eastern Ling Dynasty. Now the southern part of the Eastern Spirit is actually controlled by the insurgents, and the northern part is controlled by our Beili. The area that really belongs to the Eastern Ling Dynasty is only Lin'an. And some small cities around Lin'an. However, Lin'an has a large number of grains, and those in the city may not be able to eat them for three years. It is not only convenient to purchase grain from the Dongling court, but also mutually beneficial, which will enhance the friendship between the two countries and maintain the temporary Partnership. "

Yu Fu looked at the ministers, "What's your opinion, Ai Qing?"

Bao Taifu said with a smile: "His Majesty, the old minister thought the proposal was very good. The old minister heard that many family members of wealthy people have come to the Beilibian City one after another, and they are very eye-catching. After sending people to ask carefully, I learned that Those are the relatives of the Dongling courtiers. The building is going to die, and now for them silver is more important than grain. Once a request for grain purchase is made, the Dongling court will surely answer soon. "

Yufu was silent for a moment, and her heart was sad. "I have heard of this, not only the families of ordinary Dongling officials, but also the families of members of the third grade and above. Even the ministers of Chaozhong did not believe their court. Their monarch, can Dongling survive? "

Speaking to the Ministry of Households Shang Shu Xue Yan, "Although He dislikes such courtiers, their family members still need to take care of them, just like the Li family who had migrated to the clan. Only the families of those ministers should be secured. Only when the ministers consider issues in the Dongling dynasty will they be more biased towards me.

Xue Yan was startled when she heard her first sentence, and she said that she had not dared to accept corruption or bribes anymore. Why did Her Majesty look at her again?

He was relieved when he heard it, and he was busy arrogantly saying, "Yes, the minister must do it, and he will never let down His Majesty's expectations."

Yufu's gaze was quite profound, the corner of his mouth slightly tilted away from his eyes, and landed directly in front of him.

"That being the case, the purchase of grain should be done according to the words of Taifu and Taishi. Right, there are few people in the palace, except Ning'an and Ningping, so you don't have to be too extravagant in the year. It is better to allocate these money to In military expenses, the soldiers can have a good year in a foreign country. "

The ministers quickly persuaded, "Your Majesty, this is not possible! This is the first year of Her Majesty's return to Beili. It should have been extraordinarily solemn. How could he simply be aggrieved by His Majesty?"

"I don't feel wronged. When there is a war in the country, you should be diligent and thrifty as a master. Although the war is not in Beili, my tens of thousands of children in Beili are fighting hard in front of me, and I can't bear to enjoy it alone."

Yu Fu said something, the officials could not help but be moved, and some people couldn't help tearing up their tears.

It is the honor of the courtier and the glory of Beili that there is a prince.

Bao Taifu took the lead: "His Majesty said that His Majesty's young age is at the age of pleasure, but he can do so with restraint. The old minister is ashamed and is willing to emulate His Majesty's donation of half of the Chinese New Year's expenses for generals.

He took the lead, and the ministers naturally responded one after another.

Yu Fu laughed secretly in his heart, and only moved on his face. "This is what Ai Qing is, and he is very relieved. Your contribution to the army will be remembered in your heart."
