Nightwatcher

Yang Gong and Li Mubai looked at each other, and the latter said:

"To be honest, this matter has troubled me for a long time. I always feel that the level of the rebels in Yunzhou should not be so high. But in terms of the current situation, unless Wei Yuan is alive, it is absolutely impossible to conquer Qingzhou within a month. .

"What do you guys think?"

The battlefield is like a chessboard, and it is even more treacherous than playing chess. Li Mubai and Yang Gong, as great scholars of Yunlu Academy, are not mediocre. .

Hearing this, all the staff began to speculate:

"In the current situation, it is extremely difficult for the rebels in Yunzhou to capture Qingzhou. Could it be that they actually have another main force, dividing their troops and trying to seize other places? And Qingzhou is actually mediating with us. , entangle the main force of the imperial court."

"But it's meaningless to attack other regions separately? Then you can't fight alone, become a hopeless soldier, and be eaten by me? Xu Yinluo's military book has a saying, to win with the right combination.

"This is just a surprise soldier, and it's nothing more than a surprise."

"Mr. Yang, I don't think it's surprising. It's not that we overestimate the Yunzhou rebels, nor is it that the Yunzhou rebels are useless. It's God's will. You might as well think about it, if it wasn't for Xu Yinluo who invited the elite of the Gu clan, the relief would be relieved." The pressure from Qingzhou allowed us to take a breather, thus mobilizing troops and generals to revitalize the whole situation. This second line of defense may have completely collapsed.

"If Xu Yinluo hadn't formed an alliance with the Southern Demon to hold back the coalition forces of the Western Regions and Buddhist monks, the current situation is that the imperial court is fighting on two fronts, unable to reinforce Qingzhou, and the front may have been pushed to the hinterland of the Central Plains.

"Therefore, it's not that the rebels in Yunzhou are ineffective, it's that there are all kinds of roads and various schemes, all of which were resolved and restrained by Xu Yinluo's operation outside the bureau."

After some in-depth analysis, even Yang Gong and Li Mubai admitted that this statement was the most reasonable.

Because the two great Confucian scholars could not think of other possibilities.

After the discussion was over, Li Mubai drank the tea in the cup, cupped his hands at the former staff member who suggested "eating people" to solve the problem of food and grass for the flying beast army, and said:

"Brother Lingzhan, take a step to speak."

The staff member with the goatee got up and went out together with Li Mubai.

The two went out of the lobby and were walking in the chief envoy's yamen, when Li Mubai suddenly said:

"I want to trouble brother Lingzhan with something."

The staff member cupped his hands: "Brother Chunjing has something to say."

Li Mubai nodded and said:

"I hope brother Lingzhan can write a letter to Songshan County, telling Xu Bijiu to do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. But not in the name of Duke Yang."

Suddenly, the staff said in a deep voice:

"Ling Zhan understands."

The capital city, the Temple of Yangshen.

In the quiet afternoon, Emperor Yongxing woke up on the dragon couch, refreshed, and had not had a good night's sleep for a long time.

The first thing he did when he woke up was to summon Zhao Xuanzhen, the eunuch with palm prints, and ordered:

"I remember that the Spring Festival will be in another month.

"Notify Dali Temple that it should be held more grandly, and I will pay homage to the ancestors and heaven and earth."

After the Spring Festival, the earth returns to spring.

The cold disaster that almost brought down Dafeng finally came to an end.

In the season of recovery of all things, first of all, the cold can no longer threaten the people, and secondly, even though there is still a lack of food, there are mountains and plains, and if you go around the mountains and dig the fields, you can always find something to eat.

A few days ago, the royal study room discussed the matter. Based on the situation in Qingzhou, the princes made an in-depth analysis and agreed that the Yunzhou rebels would not be able to capture Qingzhou before the Spring Festival.

However, based on the fundamental gap between the two sides, the Yunzhou rebels will only become more and more tired after fighting hard, and a raging fire that wants to start a prairie fire will gradually decline until it is extinguished.

In recent days, the dignified atmosphere in the capital has melted like a glacier, suddenly relaxing.

The cabinet issued three announcements in succession to encourage the hearts of the people.

Just as Zhao Xuanzhen was about to step back and pass on a message, Emperor Yongxing waved his hand again and said:

"Forget it, just call the princes to come to the imperial study to discuss matters."

He smiled a little: "Continue to discuss the situation in Qingzhou."

In Fengqi Palace, Huaiqing led two personal maids into this cold palace, but it was the dream of countless women in the harem.

The charcoal fire was blazing, the curtains were hanging down, and the magnificent queen mother sat behind the desk, eating the pastries she made herself, holding a book, and reading quietly.

"Queen!"

Huaiqing gave a salute, very clear and cold.

The queen mother nodded slightly, not much more enthusiastic than her daughter, and said:

"A few days ago, His Majesty bestowed a marriage on Lin'an and Xu Yinluo.

"I suddenly remembered that I neglected your marriage in the past. When the late emperor was still there, you daughters could still talk about it in your boudoir.

"Now that the new king has succeeded to the throne, your seniority has been raised, and it is not appropriate to continue to stay in your boudoir.

"The reason I called you here today is to ask, does Huaiqing have someone he likes?"

Huaiqing smiled, not sure whether it was ridicule or disdain, and said lightly:

"The queen mother doesn't have to worry about her child's marriage. If she meets a lover, she will marry naturally."

The Empress Dowager did not insist, she nodded:

"Stand back."

Huai Qing gave a heartfelt salute, and left Fengqi Palace with the maid.

The palace walls are heavy, locking people away from their dreams.

Huaiqing suddenly stopped on a certain road, looking at the blue sky.

The person she likes she murmured these four words in her heart.

Returning to Dexin Garden, Huaiqing suddenly lost her mind to study, she planned to take a nap, but suddenly felt heart palpitations, she quietly retreated from the maid and took out fragments of the ground book.

[Two: I saw a notice in the city saying that the war situation in Qingzhou was very good, and the rebels were at the end of their strength, so I was very angry. This group of dog officials with corpses and vegetarian meals is deceiving the people. 】

Huaiqing, who was in a bad mood, was almost amused.

The sons and daughters of Tianzong should be considered in terms of cultivation talent, but they are only acceptable in terms of wisdom.

[Four: It can't be said that the people are deceived. Since ancient times, the imperial court has always sung good songs and not bad ones. Another month will be the spring festival, the earth will return to spring, and the cold will pass. The court survived the most difficult time.

[The Yunzhou rebels were dragged in Qingzhou, the longer they dragged, the more powerless they were. Although the imperial court has internal and external troubles, its foundation is still stronger than that of Yunzhou. 】

[Seven: Then, aren’t we training for nothing? 】

Sure enough, Huai Qing, a brother and sister of the same school, watched quietly and did not participate in the conversation.

[Four: Brother Li, how do you say this? The Yunzhou rebels have accumulated for twenty years, so it is not so easy to deal with them. I said that after the spring festival, they will be powerless to return to heaven, but I don't mean that after the spring festival, the Yunzhou rebels will be defeated.

【We should prepare our troops as soon as possible and arrive in Qingzhou before the Spring Festival, which may be the last straw that crushes the rebels in Yunzhou. Speaking of which, if Xu Ningyan hadn't been involved in all kinds of maneuvers to solve the two major hidden dangers of the Gu clan and the Western Regions, Qingzhou might have fallen a long time ago. 】

Ah, you can't let brother Yang see this sentence! Li Lingsu wrote:

[Senior Sister Caiwei and Senior Brother Yang of Si Tianjian are in my village, and Senior Brother Yang also intends to gather refugees, compete in the Central Plains, and become a famous figure in history. 】

[Two: It's to suppress Xu Qi'an. 】

[Four: It's to compete with Ning Yan. 】

[Six: It is aimed at Mr. Xu. 】

Li Miaozhen, Chu Yuanzhen and Master Hengyuan sent letters successively.

Li Lingsu almost covered his face, and wanted to complain about Yang Qianhuan, but when he changed his mind, he said:

【Brother Yang is a real and pure person. However, he and Junior Sister Caiwei were exiled by the prison. 】

After explaining the reasons why Yang Qianhuan and Chu Caiwei were exiled, Shengzi concluded:

[This pair of brothers and sisters is really embarrassing and speechless. 】

Everyone in Tiandihui, who were originally quite emotional in their hearts, saw this sentence and silently complained in their hearts:

The brothers and sisters of your Tianzong are not much better.

[Two: None of the prison disciples are normal. 】

Seeing this sentence, everyone in the Heaven and Earth Association became emotional again.

At this time, Daoist Jinlian showed up and said:

[Everyone, Pindao has returned from retreat. 】

The inside of Tiandihui was quiet for a few seconds, and then the frying pan exploded.

[Two: Ah, Daoist Jinlian, you have finally left the customs. You don't know, there are ever-changing things outside, and many things have happened. 】

Yes, there are so many things that make the poor Taoist think that he has been in seclusion for ten or twenty years. Taoist Jin Lian sent a letter with emotion:

[Pindao has already heard from his disciples that there is no sun and moon in the mountains, and it has been thousands of years in the world. 】

[Four: Daoist, what you know is only some things that have already spread all over the world. There are some secret news inside the Tiandihui, which you don't know yet. 】

Chu Yuanzhen sent a letter.

Daoist Jin Lian's heart moved, he knew that Xu Qi'an had stepped into the Transcendent Realm and participated in many major events, so he must have come into contact with a lot of high-level secret information.

And with Xu Ningyan's character, most likely he would show his holiness in front of Tiandihui insiders, just to exchange news.

Daoist Jin Lian immediately sent a letter to ask:

【Nine: Are there any insider information? 】

Chu Yuanzhen sent a letter and said: [Four: I will tell you something that can be said. As for the secret that Xu Ningyan announced, we will tell you after he agrees. 】

After Chu Zhuangyuan retreated Jinlian, Wei Yuan died in battle, everyone joined forces to kill Yuanjing, traveled around the rivers and lakes, and killed Buddhist King Kong in Jianzhou. Let me tell you in detail.

But the relationship between Xu Qi'an and Xu Pingfeng was hidden, and the secret of the Buddha was not mentioned.

[Nine: Wei Yuan sacrificed his life for benevolence. As for the matter of Joan of Arc, I'm really sorry, it's not what I want. It's all Heilian's fault, everyone must help me eradicate this beast. 】

Daoist Jin Lian was in a complicated mood, but he didn't forget to shake the pot.

Given the current situation, Daoist Jin Lian will bear half of the blame, while Xu Pingfeng will be the other half.

Back then, if Taoist Priest Jinlian's evil thoughts had not taken the opportunity to pollute Joan of Arc, there would not have been so many bad things that followed.

Everyone in the Tiandihui tacitly did not go into details. After all, this incident is not glorious, and the cause and effect are too heavy. It is an indelible scar in Taoist Priest Jinlian's heart.

Seeing that the members of the Tiandihui did not insist on this matter, Jin Lian was relieved.

At this time, Lina passed on the letter:

[Five: Daoist Jinlian, where did you go wrong? 】

Priest Jinlian: "."

Daoist Jinlian, why did you recruit Lina into the Tiandihui in the first place? The members of the Tiandihui are slandering.

[Nine: This matter is a long story, and I will tell you in detail when we meet again someday. 】

Daoist Jinlian could only shirk like this.

[Nine: There is one thing, Pindao thinks you should be vigilant about the war in Qingzhou. 】
