I didn't intend to be a Fairy

In the mountains of Luozhou.

The Taoist sat on the bluestone next to the official road to rest, and there were still patches of swallow rice fields on the roadside.

At this time of year, the oatmeal is already ripe, but not yet old. Each fruit has purple-red or brown whiskers hanging on it. This seems to have triggered some of Sanhua Empress's hobby - while the Taoist was resting, she walked alone. When I got to the edge of the ground swallows, I used all the green, red and purple whiskers of the swallows as hair, and carefully braided various hairstyles.

Due to height limitations, I sometimes have to stand on tiptoes.

Single twist and double twist;

Single ponytail, double ponytail;

Single meatball, double meatball.

Whatever the Taoist priest had braided for her, she would braid for these swallows, and each one was different.

Song You sat and thought.

It has been a few days since I entered Luozhou.

News from Luozhou did come faster than from Yuzhou behind him. There are often discussions at tea stalls on the roadside and in wine shops in the city.

Sure enough, there are all kinds of opinions.

Emperor Dayan originally gave birth to three sons. The real eldest son died young, leaving two, the eldest was the second prince and the younger was the third prince. Now the younger one is designated as the crown prince, and the older one is named the Shun King.

Some people say that the emperor originally wanted to make Prince Shun the crown prince, but the young prince, relying on his status as the legitimate son and the support of civil servants, tampered with the edict, and later hijacked the emperor. Prince Shun led troops to Beijing under a secret edict. Some people also say that King Shun was simply treason. With the support of his mother's family, the old emperor ran out of gas and was in a coma all day long. He was dissatisfied with the emperor's decision to appoint his third brother as the prince, so he rebelled.

Whether it is true or false, no one knows.

Anyway, King Shun has already led his troops into Beijing.

The army entered the city and marched for three days.

The prince and the emperor fled.

I think Changjing should be in chaos at this time.

Not only Changjing, but all the states in Dayan are being affected one after another from near to far.

Just like Luozhou at your feet.

It seems calm, but in fact there is an undercurrent.

The Luozhou officials and defenders were either nervous or excited. They each speculated on the situation, thinking about ways to protect themselves, or ways to gain profit.

Not to mention those with strong interests such as the powerful and the generals, there are also the bandits and bandits on the roadside. Obviously Luozhou is not in chaos at all. Those rumors from Changjing are no different from the myths and stories from thousands of years ago. Now they have nothing to do with them. Even though they couldn't get enough of it, they became inexplicably excited. As a result, the number of passing business travelers who were robbed increased significantly.

Even the price of rice and noodles in the city began to rise.

And this is just the beginning.

"..."

Song You actually doesn't care who becomes the emperor. He is not a fortune teller. He doesn't know which of the two princes is better for the world as the emperor. Even the emperor himself couldn't choose, let alone him.

It's just that there has to be an emperor.

Only in this way can the world be stable.

If this chaos continues, I'm afraid it will cause more conflicts. The situation will soar at any time, and even the prosperous times will turn into troubled times, and it will really be on the verge of changing dynasties.

This is not what Song You thought.

"I'm not done with this world yet." Song You muttered to himself while sitting on the roadside.

I just hope that the turmoil will settle down soon.

"Taoist, what did you say?"

"nothing."

Song You sighed and stood up with a stick.

The field of swallows behind him is still lush and green. In the troubled times, people's hearts are in chaos. The passing business travelers broke off a lot of swallows near the roadside, leaving empty branches or shells. Only the Three Flower Empress All the swallows that were touched had their hair braided, and their hair was rosy red and purple, which was so beautiful that people fell in love with her when they saw her.

As soon as the Taoist left, she followed him.

As the Taoist walked, he stared at the north——

Song You couldn't catch one of the two princes, put him on the throne, and kill the other. This was neither what he wanted to do, nor what the world wanted to see.

Chen Ziyi does have this ability.

But I don't know how he will choose.

…

The northern border, Yuanzhi City.

The gathering drum was beaten a quarter of an hour ago, and now the tent was already filled with military advisors and generals.

Chen Ziyi sat in the main seat and fell into deep thought.

The people below were discussing in confusion.

"Still no order has been sent?"

"Good news, the transfer order arrived today."

"The transfer order is coming? What do you say?"

"Bad news, both sides are coming. In compliance with His Majesty's order, the king ordered us to stand still and stay here. Everyone will be upgraded to the next level. The Crown Prince also issued an order on behalf of His Majesty, ordering us to quickly lead the troops south and attack Changjing. Welcome back the orthodox, and there will be a great reward."

"this……"

"Who should I believe?"

"Who knows who to believe, but now, all the major military towns and soldiers and horses in the world are looking at us." Military Master Zhang said, "Don't talk about the far ones, let's talk about the nearby ones. Except for the armies and horses of the five towns in the north of Zhenbei, they are all looking at us." Except for our second town of Shuofeng, the other three towns should have received the same order, and they did not act rashly."

"this……"

Many generals and advisors were stunned.

He had no choice but to look at Chen Ziyi who was in charge.

Chen Ziyi was also silent and did not make a sound.

"How's the situation now?"

A counselor below asked.

"According to our intelligence, the Crown Prince and His Majesty fled to Yizhou, but they were intercepted on the way and were accidentally separated. Now the Crown Prince continues to pretend to be with His Majesty, taking refuge in Yizhou, and giving orders at the same time, but His Majesty has been captured by an army The guards fled to another place, probably to Yangzhou." Military Advisor Zhang said, "King Shun occupied Changjing and allowed the soldiers to hunt for three days, causing a lot of trouble."

"Yangzhou...is it true?"

"Mostly true!"

"Yangzhou is rich but weak, so it is a good place."

"From Zhang's point of view, this must have been an order given by His Majesty when he was awake. He went to Yangzhou not to find rich people, but to find that person." Military Advisor Zhang stroked his beard and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity, I'm afraid There is a high probability that that person will not intervene, and even if he intervenes, he will not help this foolish king."

"What about other places?"

"Edicts from both sides have been received in various places. Most of the border military towns are still waiting and watching, while several states in the belly are already ready to move."

"this……"

"You are all our own people, so I won't say much else. Everyone knows that the throne is to be passed on to the prince. Prince Shun was dissatisfied and conspired to usurp the throne." Military Advisor Zhang looked around, "Now in this world, Whether the situation is chaotic or stable, whoever sits on the throne is on us.”

Everyone met his gaze, but they were all very cautious.

"What does the military advisor think?"

"I'll wait and listen to the general's decision."

Everyone knows that this is a historical drama that is destined to be recorded in history, and they are not qualified to decide how to sing and perform it.

"From my perspective..."

Commander Zhang was very calm and said: "After all, this is the Lin family's own business. The emperor was already suspicious of the general, and now there are tens of thousands of forbidden troops guarding Changjing. If we send troops south, it is not easy to break through Changjing and welcome back. Orthodoxy, even if we welcome him back, I’m afraid it will be detrimental to the general.”

"The military advisor is saying that we should stand still?"

"Of course! Stand still, no matter how the Lin family fights for power, just pretend that they didn't receive these two transfer orders!"

As Commander Zhang spoke, he glanced at the coach in front of the commander's case.

Seeing Chen Ziyi's silence, he couldn't help but look worried.

"What does the general think..."

Military Advisor Zhang finally asked Chen Ziyi.

The rest of the people also focused their attention.

I saw Chen Ziyi sitting like a mountain, with a serious expression, and a hint of fatigue in his brows. He only whispered softly: "The two princes each hold their own opinions. His Majesty is living in Yangzhou, and the world's heroes are choosing sides to fight. If it is not settled earlier, This chaos may cause rivers to break and the people to live in dire straits..."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other.

Military Master Zhang immediately frowned.

I had already made a guess, but I still couldn't help but try to persuade him.

"General, think twice!" Commander Zhang solemnly said to him, "This is a thankless task!"

"..."

"After traveling thousands of miles from Changjing to Angzhou, you have to pass through several towns and passes. Does the general know how to choose the border guards? There are still natural dangers when entering Angzhou. There are tens of thousands of imperial troops guarding the capital and obeying King Shun!" Zhang The military advisor has followed Chen Ziyi for many years and supported him. Naturally, he understands him and dares to speak frankly, "General, have you ever thought about how we will pass the border? If we pass the border easily, how will we enter the capital? If we pass the border easily, we will enter Changjing with overwhelming force. , from now on, no matter the prince or the prince, who can tolerate us?"

These words are extremely accurate.

When the civil and military officials in the tent heard this, their eyes widened.

Chen Ziyi remained silent.

In fact, how could he not know.

But what I kept thinking about in my mind at this moment was the warrior who saluted the Taoist in Changjing a few years ago.

"We, as warriors, take the protection of our country and our country as our duty, and Chen must do the same. As long as Your Majesty does not take my life, we will do our best to protect Dayan's peace. If one day, Chen breaks his oath and will give Dayan peace." The common people have brought disaster. Sir, please kill me with one sword. There will be no resentment..."

This is the promise I made.

The warriors at that time were a few years younger than now, and a few years more frivolous than now.

It's strange to think about it, it's only been three years, but when I think back to what I said back then, it's already a bit far away.

"well……"

Chen Ziyi couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that the life of becoming the Marquis of Wu'an, defeating Saibei, and returning to Shuofeng Second Town in Yuanzhi as a local emperor was too comfortable.

Can't think about it anymore...

If I think about it further, I can no longer make a decision.

Chen Ziyi thought about the swallow that flew from afar some time ago and the elixir that the swallow brought, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

Then he brushed the brush, and Chen Ziyi's expression became solemn, just like him a few years ago, and he said in a deep voice: "We, the warriors, eat the people's food, and we should ensure the peace of the world, the peace of the country and the people! Who care about life and death?"

"General..."

"I've made up my mind!"

"yes!"

"Lu Dehui! Cao Yan!"

"The general is here!"

"Order 10,000 fine cavalry and follow me south!" Chen Ziyi raised his head and said, also looking around, "If one day, Your Majesty is suspicious of me again, Chen will have his own way to escape, and you will not be affected!"

The tiger talisman was thrown out by him and flew below.

"Snapped!"

The two generals caught it accurately and without hesitation, they followed the order and came out of the tent. Their armors collided with each other, making a series of dull sounds.

Although many advisers had objections, once the coach made a decision, he was united.

In a daze, it was like the time when he conquered Saibei.
