When Li Xiong appeared in front of her with big strides, Queen Ren couldn't believe her eyes. She couldn't help but rub her eyes and shook her head. Now she was really not dazzled! The book is so magical?

Just now, he walked out sideways and looked like he was going to die at any time, but when he came back, his face was red and his steps were steady. How could he look like a sick person?

Facing the shocked look of the new queen, Li Xiong was in a good mood. He didn't say anything, deliberately trying to show off, stroking his beard and smiling slightly.

After standing in a daze for a long time, Empress Ren came back to her senses and quickly moved to give her a blessing: "I congratulate Your Majesty on your return to health. I guess there must be some happy event?"

Li Xiong smiled happily and said: "Haha, the Jin army outside the city has nothing to worry about."

"Oh?" Although Queen Ren didn't understand, she was ecstatic in her heart. If the country was not destroyed, Li Xiong would not die, and she would not have to be buried. She could continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, so she quickly moved forward with a hint of teasing.

He took off his imperial robes for Li Xiong and said with a chuckle: "Your Majesty is destined by fate, how can a mere Jin army be your enemy? However, I am very curious, how did your Majesty order the Jin army to retreat?"

"Zitong, please take a guess." Li Xiong looked over with a joking look. This man's interest was quite high.

Queen Ren frowned, and several possibilities emerged in her mind one by one. After a while, she guessed in disbelief: "Could it be that the Jin army has been defeated outside the city?"

"Huh?" The corner of Li Xiong's mouth twitched. He defeated the Jin army? He was almost defeated by the Jin army. He suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head. Most of his interest was gone. He was no longer in the mood to tease the queen. He shook his head and said

: "It was the idea of ​​the Grand Tutor to make Princess Xuan'er Wuyang marry Yunfeng." Next, Li Xiang explained Li Xiang's reasons again.

Queen Ren pondered for a moment, then opened her lips and said, "I feel somewhat confident after hearing what the Grand Master said. It's just that it's hard for Xuan'er. She has to shoulder such a heavy responsibility at such a young age."

Li Xiong sighed and said: "I have no other choice. It is not enough to retreat the Jin army. Besides, it is better to marry Yunfeng than Meng Gulu. After all, I am still a Han. I think Xuan'er will be content, so why not take advantage of it?"

At this time, how about we call Xuan'er over and explain it to her?"

Queen Ren shook her head: "Your Majesty, Xuan'er was originally dissatisfied with Xu Yinan Yi, so I think it would be better for us to go there in person."

Li Xiong thought about it. After all, he wanted his daughter, so he agreed: "That's fine, let's go right away."

Queen Ren changed Li Xiong into casual clothes, and the two of them left the dormitory together.

Soon a quiet small courtyard appeared in front of us, and the faintly audible tinkling tinkling sound of the piano came to my ears. Flowing in the wind, there was also a sad song: "....No days and no nights.

Don't miss my hometown, my talent is full of energy

There is nothing more miserable than me! Book* Natural disasters, the country is in chaos, people have no masters, but I am miserable, there are no soldiers, my mind is different, my body is in trouble, my taste is different, who can talk to me, I have gone through many hardships

, the four shots become more and more sad..."

But it is Cai Yan's "Eighteen Beats of Hujia" with its sad melody and Sao-style poems that are sincere and touching. It tells the story of Cai Yan's life of chaos and humiliation, which makes people heartbroken.

Li Xiong couldn't help but feel a little apologetic in his eyes, waved his hand to stop the maid's greetings, and walked in lightly with Queen Ren.

A 13-14-year-old woman wearing plain dark clothes sat upright under the tree, stroking a lyre on the table with her slender fingers, her expression focused and unaware of the visitor, as if there was nothing in her world except music.

There was nothing else to look at carefully, but there was a trace of tears in the corner of the woman's eyes.

Li Xiong and his wife stopped aside. After the song ended, they were still immersed in the touching singing. The woman had tears slowly sliding down her cheeks for a long time. Li Xiong came back to his senses, applauded and praised: "Xuan'er's piano skills are getting better and better."

He is proficient, his singing can make people cry, and he already has everyone’s style.”

Princess Wuyang was shocked. Her father, who had been ill a few days ago, stood in front of her with a glowing face. She quickly wiped her face with her sleeves, stood up and saluted: "Xuan'er has met Aweng and my mother. May I ask?

Has Awen recovered his health?"

Li Xiong nodded: "Yes, my father is in good health."

Princess Wuyang's pretty face lit up with joy, and she saluted again: "Xuan'er, congratulations to Aweng."

Li Xiong said happily: "Xuan'er has such filial piety, it's not in vain for me to love my father." Then his voice changed: "My father heard that you were a literary concubine in your singing. I must be still thinking about marrying you."

Are you still worried about Meng Gulu?"

Princess Wuyang's face instantly turned gloomy, and she said calmly: "Xuan'er doesn't dare."

Li Xiong laughed and said: "The barbarian king Meng Gulu has died in the rebellion. Xuan'er no longer has to worry about this matter. However, your father has found a good family for you. He holds a high position as a shepherd in Liangzhou, so he can be with you."

You match”

Although Princess Wuyang had already heard about the fall of Jiange and Fucheng, she still didn't know that Meng Gulu was dead. When she heard Li Xiong talk about it, she just breathed a sigh of relief, but then she heard that another door had been found for her.

Dear, my little heart is on the rise again

Where is Liangzhou? Who is the Mu in Liangzhou, a barbaric land? Isn't he the one who led the troops to invade? No need to ask, my father must have made plans to get married again

She clearly remembered that at the beginning, her father was planning to send an envoy to Jiankang to propose marriage to the prince of Jin Dynasty, Sima Shao, when she was old enough.

Later, when the Jin army from the northwest invaded, in order to win over the southwest barbarians and send troops to retreat from the enemy, her father promised her to the barbarian king Meng Gulu. Meng Gulu was barbaric and vulgar, ignorant of etiquette, and shared his wife with his tribe. This kind of humiliation would probably make it difficult for Cai Yan to be reborn.

Compare with it

Fortunately, the good news that Meng Gulu was defeated and died suddenly fell from the sky, but there was also the bad news that she was to be promised to Liangzhou Mu. In her eyes, the northwest warlords all had the image of Dong Zhuo, with a cruel temperament, a big belly, and radiant hair all over his body.

Unpleasant fishy smell

Princess Wuyang stood in a daze, a deep sadness welling up in her heart. She even wanted to die. None of the husbands her father found for her were decent men, they were all unsightly.

But what can my generation do? As a woman, especially a royal woman, she must shoulder the responsibility of saving the country and the clan. This is fate. No one can resist the blame. We can only blame the wrong person for being cast into the royal family.

Seeing Princess Wuyang's dejected look, Queen Ren couldn't bear it. She stepped forward and held her little hand, smiling and saying: "I heard your majesty say that the Liangzhou shepherd has beautiful eyebrows and beautiful eyes. He is young and romantic. He is indeed unmatched by Meng Gulu.

If you see me, you will be satisfied."

If Yunfeng were present, he would definitely be scolding. Why do you always compare yourself with someone like Meng Gulu? Is there any comparison? For him, who has always been proud, romantic and unrestrained, this is a call to call others naked.

facial behavior

Princess Wuyang took it all as words of comfort. The kind of person Queen Ren said should be a gentleman. How could he be a rich warlord from Liangzhou? She sighed secretly in her heart and smiled slightly: "Xuan'er, but

It’s up to Aweng and Grandma to make the decision.”

A worried look appeared on Li Xiong's face, and he sighed: "You haven't arrived yet, and as a father I know that I have wronged you. However, the Jin army has already arrived at the city and will break into the city at any time. By then, as a father, I will always love you."

Your stepmother, your brothers and sisters-in-law, your children, nephews, descendants, and even the innocent people in the city will all suffer unexpected disasters. Alas, my father made this decision out of desperation."

Princess Wuyang said calmly: "In ancient times, Zhaojun went out to the fortress to bring peace to the Han family's border fortress. Now Xuan'er is also willing to share the country's worries.

Just welcome the Liangzhou Shepherd and try your best to get him to withdraw his troops and go north."

Li Xiong couldn't help but said with tears in his eyes: "It's rare that Fei'er understands the righteousness. In this case, I won't say more words of thanks to my father. I, the people of Dacheng, will always remember them in their hearts. Your uncle will send you off in person in three days."

Would you like to leave the city?"

Princess Wuyang nodded silently and said nothing, but tears could not stop filling her face.

Li Xiong was secretly feeling sorry for him. For the first time, he felt guilty and dared not see his daughter again. He turned around and said, "Xuan'er, take advantage of these few good days to prepare for the birth. I will say goodbye to my father and mother."

, and quickly walked away from the courtyard like Queen Ren was escaping.

"Congratulations to my mother..." A low sobbing sound came from behind the two of them...

The news that the Jin army promised the people to go out to harvest rice soon spread throughout the city. At first, everyone could not believe that such a good thing would happen. However, the land outside the city was the result of their hard work for a whole year.

sweat

I dare not go out of the city to harvest, and my heart hurts more than a knife. This is the source of livelihood for the whole family for the next year. If I go out of the city, I will probably be killed by the Jin army. But everyone has a sense of luck, and the Jin army made a grand and public promise.

Passed, so early the next morning, hundreds of brave people gathered at the gate of the city, demanding to go out to harvest rice.

The defenders did not dare to make any decisions without permission. They reported to each level, but Li Xiong waved his hand and opened a small door to let the people out. He was very relieved about Yunfeng.

Hundreds of people came out of the city in fear. Looking from a distance, they saw the Jin military camp standing ten miles north of the city. The barriers were so tight and the evil spirit was so strong that it made people feel chilly.

The common people did not dare to look too much, as if thousands of troops would rush out of the camp at any time. They all walked cautiously towards their fields. While working, they did not forget to take a few vigilant glances to the north.

However, when the sun set and I ran back to the city, nothing happened except that I frightened myself in vain.

Suddenly, one stone set off a thousand waves, and the city was abuzz with people talking about it. They all had an incredible feeling. Is this kind of besieging army an enemy army? How come they are more disciplined than the army of their own country? You know,

The city defenders often ask for cards.

Another day, thousands of people went out of the city to harvest rice. At this time, the Jin army camp that fell in their eyes was no longer so scary. Instead, it was quiet and peaceful, giving people a sense of peace. The people gradually became more and more popular.

Laughter and noise arose

When they got closer, everyone was instantly frightened and stood there. On the drying ground at the head of the field, there were hundreds of Jin army cavalry wearing helmets and armor.

One of the Jin soldiers smiled and said: "Folks, don't panic. Our general saw that all the fellow villagers returned to the city after yesterday's collection, and no one was left to guard the drying yard. How can this be done? What if we are killed by beasts and birds?

What should we do if we eat it at night? So, we sent some of our brothers to help everyone watch for a while. Now that everyone is here, we should go back. Fellow villagers, say goodbye."

After saying that, he stretched and said to himself: "Nainai, I haven't slept all night, I'm really damn sleepy." Then, he waved his hands and said: "Brothers, let's go back to camp."

The soldiers mounted their horses one after another, and like a gust of wind passed by the eyes of the dumbfounded people, they quickly disappeared into the depths of the horizon.

The people were really dumbfounded. Thousands of pairs of eyes stared blankly at the direction in which the cavalry disappeared. No one spoke for a long time. However, some people had tears in their eyes... (To be continued)
