The setting sun left a long shadow, blood-red.

Han Hao didn't know what was going on, since Grandpa Guo came back from the court, he stood in the courtyard, motionless, seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Han Hao walked over and said: "Grandpa Guo, the maid next to the old lady came over and asked, did Grandpa Guo go over to eat at night?" "After entering the palace, Grandpa Guo is like this, and I don't know what the emperor said to Grandpa Guo.

Han Jianming said: "Let's just say that I have a lot of things, so I won't go over to eat today!" "Well, he didn't want to see anyone, he just wanted to be alone.

It was dark, and Han Hao personally lit the lamp. Han Jianming looked at the orange light and said, "Go and call Mr. Zhao!" ”

Mr. Zhao had long known about Han Jianming's abnormality, but Han Jianming didn't call him, and he didn't take the initiative to come over. Mr. Zhao asked, "Grandpa Guo, what happened?" ”

Han Jianming said: "The emperor wants me to kill Yuxi, if I agree, the position of the secretary of the military department is mine." "This is a really good idea, Yuxi can't guard against his big brother.

Mr. Zhao opened his mouth, and after a long while, he asked, "What is Grandpa Guo going to do?" "On one side is the position of the secretary of the military department, and on the other side is the younger sister, this is really a dilemma.

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "I refused." "For the sake of a position in the military department, he wanted to murder his sister, he was not mad to this point, and the emperor looked down on him too much.

Mr. Zhao did not breathe a sigh of relief for this, but said: "The emperor will not give up lightly." "Since the emperor has spoken, he can't help Han Jianming refuse, it really comes to that point, the emperor will use the people of the Han family to threaten the grandfather of the country.

Han Jianming said: "Let's talk about it later!" ”

Mr. Zhao looked at Han Jianming's worried appearance and said, "The fourth aunt and grandmother have always been cautious, and it is not so easy for the emperor to kill her. "Yucheng, but Yunqing and the fourth aunt's territory. The emperor wanted to kill her, but he might not be able to kill her.

Han Jianming said with some concern: "Yuxi is still pregnant!" "It's going to be a pinch, and there's no room for it. Unfortunately, for the sake of the safety of his family, he can't do anything now.

Mr. Zhao said: "The fourth aunt and grandmother will be fine, don't worry about grandpa Guo!" Actually, Mr. Zhao didn't have a better idea. Although the emperor is controlled by others, it is still easy to want the life of the Han family, so it will not be possible to secretly Chen Cang.

I didn't think of a better way after struggling all night, but I didn't expect to receive the holy decree the next day, and the emperor appointed him as the secretary of the military department.

The news was transmitted back to the backyard, and the ladies in the backyard were all happy. The subordinates in the mansion are also honored. The military department is still the secretary, one of the six chief officers, and the real high and powerful.

Qiu Shi said happily: "Send someone to Deyue Tower to set two tables for the best table, and we will celebrate it today." "The son is promoted, and the mother is the happiest. However, this joy was gone when he saw Han Jianming who came back from the palace.

Knowing a son is like a mother, the Qiu family knows that his son has always wanted to glorify his ancestors. This will be promoted, but her son's face is half happy, and she knows that something is wrong: "Ming'er, is there anything wrong with the position of this military secretary?" ”

There is nothing wrong with the position of the secretary of the military department. It's just that what the emperor wants him to do, it's not very appropriate. Han Jianming shook his head and said: "Mother, now that there is a rebellion everywhere, the position of the secretary of the military department is equivalent to a hot potato, and whoever takes it is unlucky." Han Jianming didn't dare to tell the truth to the Qiu family, for fear that the Qiu family would worry.

Qiu said: "I said why such a good lack fell on your head, dare to love is a hot potato!" But it doesn't matter, we can do it if we can, and if we can't do it, we won't do it. ”

Han Jianming is bitter in his heart, now the problem is that if you don't want to be, you have to be! However, Han Jianming didn't show half a point on his face, and said, "Well, I'll do my best." ”

Seeing that his son was not in a good mood, Qiu changed the topic and said, "Count, the child in Yuxi's belly should be more than six months old." I prepared some children's clothes and other things for her, and sent them to the northwest after two ****. ”

Han Jianming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send it in two days." "Something must not be sent, otherwise the emperor will think that he has reported the news. However, the words of my mother cannot be disobeyed, so I can only let these things disappear halfway. Fortunately, this kind of thing happens often, and it won't make his mother suspicious. I just don't know if Yuxi hasn't received her mother's things for a long time, whether she will be suspicious. Han Jianming hoped that Yuxi would be suspicious, so it might be safer.

Qiu couldn't help but say, "I just hope this baby is a son." "If you give birth to two girls, it will be very stressful.

Han Jianming appeased the Qiu clan and said, "It will definitely be a son." "Sons and sons are secondary, and the most important thing now is to get through this difficult time. Han Jianming had a headache and didn't know how to pass the news to Yuxi.

At this time, Yuxi, how did she know that the emperor was ready to put her to death! If she knew, she would definitely be more guarded. It's a pity that Yuxi doesn't know anything.

Yunqing said to Yuxi; "As soon as I got the news, the rebel army has now expanded to more than 42,000 people." In just over half a month, the number of people has doubled, and it also accounts for three states and counties, which makes Yunqing a little frightened.

Yuxi felt that it was normal and said: "The people are so oppressed by Ji Xuan that they can't survive, and they will die if they are rectified like this by Ji Xuan." If you follow the rebellion, at least there is still a way to live. "Rebellion is death, not rebellion is death, anyway, it's a death, it's better to fight.

For Yunqing's worries, Yuxi knows: "Peng Lianggong is short-sighted, narrow-minded and can't tolerate people, don't worry about him." After knowing that Peng Lianggong was the No. 2 leader of the rebels, Jun Yuanbo, she knew that Peng Lianggong posed no threat to them.

Yunqing was not worried that he would not be able to deal with Peng Lianggong, but that there were too many rebels, and they would pay too much price when they went to quell the rebellion. Today's Northwest Army is basically trained by him, and the losses are too great, and he feels distressed.

Yuxi was also worried before, but she was worried about Peng Lianggong, not how many people Peng Lianggong had: "The more people, sometimes, it is not necessarily advantageous." "There are more people, and rations and weapons are two big problems. Rations can be obtained by robbing grain merchants and wealthy households, but weapons are not so easy to have. As far as Yuxi knew, none of these rebels had a decent weapon.

As he was talking, Xu Wu suddenly shouted outside: "General, the army has an urgent delivery." "The letter sent with the word urgency indicates that the situation is urgent.

Yunqing strode out. Yuxi had a big belly and was inconvenient, so she immediately called Zi Jin and asked Zi Jin to help her to the front yard.

When Yuxi arrived at the study, he looked at Yunqing's gloomy face and asked, "What's wrong?" "Don't let something happen to the Feng army.

Yun Qing handed the letter on the table to Yuxi and said, "This group of rebels is really bold enough to have the idea of raising grain and grass. Although I was worried about this before, these people really came to snatch the grain and grass, and they were still unspeakably annoyed.

After reading the letter, Yuxi said with a smile: "More than 200,000 stone grains, everyone is tempted." However, these rebels are too arrogant, and they only sent 2,000 men to rob us of our food. "This time, they were ambushed. The speed of so much grain and grass is too slow, and it is still easy for someone to make a detour and ambush in front. It's just that 2,000 people want to rob them of their food, which is too unserious for the cavalry of the Northwest Army. You must know that the strength and combat effectiveness of these cavalry are several times that of ordinary soldiers. It was also these people who underestimated the enemy, 2,000 people, all of whom were wiped out by the Feng army.

Yun Qing said: "These rebels, thinking that after a few big victories, they will not be able to find the north. Speaking of this, Yunqing's stomach was full of fire. Each state and county has its own battalion guard, and these people will become a substitute for their Northwest Army in times of crisis. But these people, not to mention fighting, only heard that the rebels were coming, and they all ran away. This is why Peng Lianggong occupied three prefectures and counties in less than a month.

Yuxi said: "One soldier bears, one bear." The general fled in despair, and where would the soldiers below stay where they were and wait for death, they naturally ran away. In the final analysis, it is not in the soldiers, but in those who are officials. "Of course, this is true for military attachés, and it is also true for civilian officials. Officials in several states and counties near Nancheng have basically run out.

Yunqing agrees with Yuxi's statement.

Yuxi asked, "Yu Cong should be almost here at this time!" "After receiving the news that the counterinsurgency army was completely annihilated, Yunqing sent Yu Cong with 2,000 elite soldiers to meet the Feng army. In fact, in terms of combat effectiveness, 2,000 elite soldiers is actually a lot, but this is also for the sake of insurance. And for this decision, no one in the whole army felt that it was inappropriate. This is their ration, and if the rebels take it, then they will have to go hungry.

Yunqing said: "It will be here in a few days. "This time we didn't send more cavalry, we sent infantry, so the speed was slower.

Yuxi asked, "Before the convergence, there should be no problem, right?" Although she believed in the ability of the Feng army and the cavalry of the Northwest Army, she was still a little worried.

Yunqing said: "Don't worry about this. If something is wrong, the army will find an easy place to defend and wait for reinforcements. "The main thing is that there are eight hundred cavalry following, so Yun Qing is not worried.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Uncle Huo's vision is really good. "These are all people cultivated by Huo Changqing, and each of them is so good. Look at her again, Yuxi is embarrassed, so she cultivates a Zi Jin, and she is still a stupid girl with courage and no strategy.

Yun Qing said with a smile: "Uncle Huo said, those girls can be used for you after a period of training." This time, Huo Changqing also selected more than ten little girls to train together. These little girls were cultivated for Yuxi.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Then I'll wait." "In this regard, she is far behind Huo Changqing, so the three of them should give full play to their strengths! R1148
