Chapter 637
At this time, Li Hanyao fell into the quagmire of love and wanted to confess to Wang He several times, tell him his identity, and surprise him.
However, her wisdom and past life experience turned into reason and ran to stop her, reminding her: After Wang He knew her identity, he could no longer just think that she was a little maid, but Li Hanyao, and would inadvertently reveal clues, increasing the danger of her exposure. Even with his protection, struggle would be inevitable.
The result of the struggle is likely to make her lose herself and eventually be hidden by Wang He's golden house - not the golden house built by Emperor Wu of Han for Chen Ajiao, but a house built with his tenderness and love. She was imprisoned in it. All efforts and struggles were just to preserve the glory of the queen, becoming vulgar and becoming more ordinary. Perhaps one day, she would become the same end as Chen Ajiao.
Such a house is something other women dream of, but she will not be satisfied.
She is an ambitious woman!
She never wants to be ordinary!
If she were willing to be ordinary, she would not have reached this point today.
If she was willing to be ordinary, she would have married Luo Wuchen long ago, and would not have chosen a son-in-law publicly, nor would she resist the order and escape from marriage, nor would she mention rebellion.
She wants to lead the women in the world to undergo an unprecedented change. When everything is calm, it will be when she and Wang He stay together.
So she decided to continue hiding it.
She comforted herself and thought: "He loves me as a person, whether I am a lady or a maid, and what name I am is not important to him. Besides, for the sake of convenience, I have exchanged identities with Guanqi since I was a few years old, and I did not intend to deceive him. If I tell him in the future, he will definitely forgive me."
Although she found many reasons for herself, she still felt guilty when facing Wang He. She asked in a low voice: "Will the young master blame me?"
It seems that the question of supporting him was raised again.
Wang He stared at the black eyes and gently wiped his eyelashes with his fingers, as if he wanted to erase the guilt and worry floating inside, and smiled and said, "No wonder. I like independent women! If you are mediocre, you will not make me love deeply. I don't want you to change your opinion, it will make me lose my lover."
His comfort made her feel even more guilty.
She looked at him in fascination - would such a man make women desperately? Did God deliberately use him to test her will? She felt tormented, tested and tempted at all times.
Fortunately, a chaotic sound came: horse hooves, laughter, noise and excitement. From far to near, they looked up at the official road, and saw a group of people and a long convoy from the other end of the official road...
That was the person sent by Wang He to pick up the grain team.
The subsequent food team is here!
The Jin Yuan, Xiao Jia, Xiao B, and the snails... are all here.
Wang He and Li Hanyao looked at each other and stood up together.
Li Hanyao picked up Wang He's cloak from the ground and looked carefully. There were only a few traces of frost soaked in the air and a few grass clippings. Then she patted it, shook it open, and covered Wang He's shoulders. Wang He hurriedly bent down to cooperate with her.
She tied a cloak strap for him.
He saw her smile on her lips and exhaled a burst of milky white mist from her mouth, but her face was pink and bright, and asked, "Is it cold?"
Li Hanyao said: "It's not cold."
The sun shone brightly, and the wind was on the back of the hillside, which was much warmer than when they first came out, but he still touched her face and felt a little ice. So he used the heat from his palm to warm the cold cheeks and take care of them all.
He didn't think that a woman who had the means would not need his care. He thought that the reason why she was powerful and capable was because she had good talents; the other was that the men around her were too mediocre and could not take responsibility for things. Now with him, he would take responsibility for her and take care of her.
Of course, caring does not mean confinement.
He won't imprison her.
Confinement will make her lose her vivid colors and become like those women who are closed in the boudoir, which is something he cannot tolerate; his care will only make her bloom with more brilliant brilliance and vivid colors...
After tying their cloaks, they walked down the hillside, walked up the official road, and greeted the convoy, and Xiaojia, in front of them, greeted him loudly.
Wang He shook Li Hanyao's hand, conveyed his appreciation and gratitude, and said, "All the food has arrived. Now the prisoners can be released. I dare not put them before, because there is nothing to feed them if they are released."
Li Hanyao turned her face, nodded proudly at him, and said, "There is still a surprise."
Wang He hurriedly asked, "What surprise?"
Li Hanyao said: "Guess, young master?"
Wang He smiled and said, "How can I guess this?"
He said that, but he pondered.
Li Hanyao didn't want him to be too anxious and was heartbroken before he could come out and said, "Military uniform!"
Wang He said in surprise: "Have the military uniforms been shipped?"
He couldn't help but be surprised. After hearing the food collection, he felt that the planning was clever; but the military uniform was too conspicuous. How could Li Hanyao hide the truth and load one.5 million military uniforms on the car and drive on the official road? He couldn't wait to know.
Li Hanyao said: "I don't know if the luck comes. I have to ask about Jin Yuan."
She took Wang He's hand and went forward.
Jin Yuan indeed brought the news about military uniforms: he was ordered by Li Hanyao, and after the situation stabilized, he passed the message to several textile merchants arranged in advance - these textile merchants were all under the name of the Murong family - and ordered them to start work in full and make military uniforms. Whenever they were made into a batch, they would immediately send them to Xuanwu Pass.
Military uniforms are not as good as food. They will attract the attention of the outside world as soon as they start work. Therefore, Li Hanyao dared not produce them blatantly, so she could only prepare the fabrics and other things. When the battle situation is stable and the military is protected, she dared to start work.
After hearing this, Wang He praised: "This idea is stable."
Murong family?
A young scholar with a modest expression appeared in front of him, Murong Hui. Because Li Hanyao was beside him and the scene was in a mess, he slipped over.
King Suzaku and others all looked at Li Hanyao with admiration and felt worried: Is such a woman willing to surrender to Wanghe?
It is precisely because external troubles have just subsided, and internal troubles have risen again.
From this day on, under the command of King Suzaku, Zhang Jinyan and others opened Xuanwu Pass and released countless An army, counted, formed, guarded, and treated wounded... They were busy day and night; the increasing number of prisoners made the Xuanwu Army tense up and down, and were fully alert, for fear that the prisoners would cause trouble.
The north and south were completely connected, and Wang He immediately notified the envoy of Anguo: Immediately send someone out of seclusion and contact Qin Peng, and ask Qin Peng to hand over Pan Zihao, otherwise he would not have any peace talks, let alone redeemed Emperor An and his wife and the soldiers of Anguo.
The envoy of Anguo hurriedly followed suit.
Li Hanyao was also busy receiving food and military uniforms, and they were delivered one after another. She also took a break from her busy schedule to enter the pass with Wang He, surveying the terrain and remaining buildings in the pass, helping him draw artworks, and preparing to rebuild Xuanwu Pass.
Three days later, the number of prisoners came out: a total of 286,593 people. It was originally far more than this number, and the rest were all killed on the day of the Xuanwu Pass explosion. Some were killed at that time, and some were injured and died. Queen An could not see anyone alive and could not see the corpse. This was not true. She should have been killed in the tunnel and her body was buried in rocks.
When Emperor An heard the bad news, he was extremely silent.
The Xuanwu Army was extremely powerful, and when facing the prisoners, they would also show a look of pity. However, when they thought that if An Guo won, their fate might be even worse, this pity turned into anger and ridicule.
Seeing that everything was ready, Wang He was about to start negotiating with the envoy of Anguo. A team of men who sent military uniforms arrived. Two civilians asked to see Prince Zhang, saying that there was an important military report, and were then taken to Zhang Jinyan.
"Father!"
Zhang Jinyan cried with joy.
