Chapter 925: Expectations
Ever since Bai Qingyu said that he was going to leave Liang Guo, Shen Haoran had been making a bitter face, his usual coldness and calmness were gone, and the problem of talking a lot when he saw Bai Qingyu was completely changed. He frowned tightly, as if he had a thousand words to say to Bai Qingyu, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Just sighed heavily.
No matter how calm Bai Qingyu was, he was also annoyed by the abandoned gaze of a resentful woman like him, and coughed lightly and said, "If you really can't bear me, you can go to the dense forest to find me." ”
"Jungle?" Shen Haoran remembered this place, Feng Changqi had told him Bai Qingyu's origin before, and said that Bai Qingyu lived in an inaccessible forest, which must be the so-called dense forest in her mouth! His eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly, "I'll definitely go back." ”
Somehow, Bai Qingyu had an ominous premonition.
At this moment, Shen Ming and Shen Zhiwen walked out together.
Shen Zhiwen walked in the front, he was carrying a lantern in his hand, and Shen Ming followed behind, the dim light shining on the faces of the two of them, giving people a feeling that the years were quiet. Who would have thought that the two people who came out of the woods one after the other at this time would be the main reason for the Liang Civil War, originally standing on both sides of the opposite? If they were seen by their subordinates, they would have lost their jaws.
Judging from the expressions and movements of the two, their conversation should be quite good, at least there is no saber rattling to the point of fighting, and Bai Qingyu is still very satisfied with this.
She stood up from the stone, yawned, and said, "Now that you're done talking, go back to your own house." You young people have vitality, but I don't have an old man, I can barely maintain my strength by going to bed early and getting up early, and I want to go back and rest as soon as possible. ”
It's really not early.
Shen Zhiwen saluted Shen Ming and said goodbye, and then took Shen Haoran out of the woods.
Because Bai Qingyu was going to leave Liang Country in two days, Shen Haoran was full of reluctance, but he could only press this emotion in his heart and look back.
"White girl, I will definitely go to the jungle to find you."
Under the moonlight, Bai Qingyu's silver hair was like wearing a thin veil, and she gently hooked the corners of her lips, revealing a gentle smile.
It wasn't until he couldn't see Bai Qingyu anymore that Shen Haoran reluctantly withdrew his gaze. Seeing this, Shen Zhiwen on the side couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "I didn't expect that our General Shen would also fall in love sometimes, and sure enough, the gentle township hero mound, the current General Shen is really not like the General Shen I know, but it seems to be a different person." ”
The smiling words did not arouse Shen Haoran's anger, he snorted and turned his face away: "Your Highness, you have never been tempted by people, so you can't understand the mood of the last general, the last general understands, this kind of thing will naturally be understood when you meet a girl who can tug at your heartstrings one day in the future." ”
"Is there really that day?" Shen Zhiwen muttered to himself.
Due to the distance between the two and the relatively strong wind at night, Shen Haoran, who was following behind, didn't have time to hear his words clearly.
"Your Highness, what did you just say?"
"No, nothing, I'm just curious." Recalling that when they met in the small pavilion just now, Shen Ming talked about the princess's gentle expression and everything he had done for the princess, Shen Zhiwen fell into confusion, "Why are you two willing to give up so much for your feelings?" Shen Ming is like this, and so are you. ”
Shen Haoran sensitively captured something important: "Your Highness, you said the regent, what's wrong with him?" ”
Shen Haoran is Shen Zhiwen's best friend and confidant, and there is no secret existence between the two, so Shen Zhiwen did not hide it, and directly told him the reason why Shen Ming gave up power.
The listener was dumbfounded, and it took a while to realize what it meant: "This regent really dares to love and hate, he is so deeply affectionate." It's rare in the world, and if I sat in his place, I wouldn't necessarily be able to make the same decisions as he did. ”
"Oh? Are you sure? Shen Zhiwen was very skeptical.
Facing Shen Zhiwen's questioning, Shen Haoran looked cramped: "I'm different from the white girl!" ”
"Ahh
On the way back, Bai Qingyu suddenly sneezed.
Sneezing is a common thing for other people, after all, people who eat whole grains will always get sick! But when it fell on Bai Qingyu, it seemed a little unusual, Shen Ming's face was surprised, and the gaze cast by him was as if he had seen a ghost, in his eyes, Bai Qingyu was a monster: "It turns out that you will also be sick?" ”
"No, you're wrong." Bai Qingyu frowned and shook his head, "I won't get sick, this sneezing, I guess someone is arranging me behind my back." ”
While speaking, the two of them had already come to the gate of the capital, and at this time, the gate was closed, and the soldiers guarding the city cast vigilant glances, but soon, their eyes changed, just because Xuan Bing came. He trotted all the way to the city gates, ordered the soldiers to open the gates, and then rushed out to inspect the situation as soon as possible. After searching up and down to make sure that Shen Ming was not injured, his heart was completely relaxed: "Your Highness, you must not do such a dangerous thing in the future, you don't know how worried I was during the time you left the city....... I'm afraid you won't be able to come back, the chaos in this capital can't be suppressed by soldiers and horses! ”
Shen Ming smiled helplessly: "Isn't this coming back?" The plan with Shen Zhiwen's side has also been negotiated, just waiting for the time to come. ”
"Understood, understood!"
Xuan Bing instantly set his eyes on Bai Qingyu's body again: "The white girl has worked hard all the way, if it is too late today, presumably the white girl, you are also tired, right?" Do you want me to send you back? ”
"I understand the general's intentions, but compared to me, he is another person who needs more escort."
They came by night and broke the ban that the capital city should not open the city gate at night, and it was Xuan Bing, the general, who personally ordered the door to be opened. Let Shen Ming return to the palace alone, I'm afraid that rumors will spread in the community tomorrow.
Xuan Bing glared at Shen Ming, who had a calm face next to him, and had to accept the reality: "Okay then, the white girl is careful all the way." ”
Meng Liguo, Broken Leaf City.
Yu Wuwang wrinkled his brows, his eyes swept over the table, and his expression was a little more confused: "There is still no news over there?" ”
Lu Ming shook his head: "Maybe those county guards still need time to think about it slowly, after all, it's not a trivial matter, it's normal for them to look ahead and look back." He narrowed his eyes slightly, "At a critical time, maybe we can use other methods to convince them, such as directly using force or something." ”
In the territory of Meng Liguo, there are many wall grasses who choose to surrender for peace, Lu Ming has been stationed in Broken Leaf City for many years, and he has already figured out the character of the neighboring county guards, if there is no news, they can do it directly, the soldiers of Fangzheng Broken Leaf City have always been warlike, even if the forces under the county guards are added together, they may not be able to beat their army, at this time, only force can explain the problem. “
The adjutant general next to him agreed with this, they were all mixed under Lu Ming, and they were really not afraid of anyone on the battlefield.
There is no doubt that this is a good way, but Yu Wuwang does not agree, the most important thing for them at the moment is not to expand their power, but to make a name for themselves, and to send troops under a name in order to win people's hearts, just like before they specially planted a trumped-up charge for Lu Ming in order to attack Broken Leaf City, they also need a reason.
The deputy general looked puzzled: "The prince who is now sitting in the capital is not the prince of our Meng Liguo, but a villain who occupies the magpie's nest, isn't this name enough?" ”
Yu Wuwang took the next word without hesitation: "Not enough." ”
It is difficult for the people to have a sense of approval for the blood reunification, after all, no matter who sits in that position, it has nothing to do with them, as long as the person sitting on the throne has a little brain, can govern the country well, and will not make the people's life too sad, they will not choose to oppose. And it turns out that the Yan does have such an ability, but Feng Changqi has never shown her ability from beginning to end, and she is relatively young, so people are generally suspicious of her.......
Just when several people in the camp were silent, a young soldier hurriedly came to report: "General, there is a person who claims to be the envoy of Jiangcheng and wants to see the national teacher!" ”
Jiangcheng?
Hearing this name, Lu Ming's eyes lit up: "Jiangcheng is the most prosperous city on the northwest border, and the Jiangcheng County guard is quite prestigious here, he sent a messenger here, maybe he has the will to support us." ”
Yu Wuwang was also very happy: "Please come and see the messenger." ”
The young soldier who gave the order withdrew again, and after a while, he brought back a middle-aged man with a thin figure and a face full of shrewdness.
"The grass people meet the national teacher and the generals."
Yu Wuwang nodded, and his eyes turned around on him before asking, "Your Excellency is a messenger sent by Jiangcheng, dare to ask if the county guard has made a decision?" ”
The status of the people in the entire camp is higher than him, but the middle-aged man is neither humble nor arrogant, and said respectfully and politely: "The stakes are very high, the county guard does not dare to make a choice directly, and is still considering it." ”
There was a deputy general who was more anxious, and he was upset enough to hear the words of the scholar Wen Crepe, and the answer was not the one he wanted, so he became more and more annoyed: "Since you are still thinking about it, then what did your county guard send you to do?" Come and see the excitement? ”
