Little Lingyin is seven years old this year. Like her mother, Li Shishi, she is a little aloof to others, but she is very affectionate towards Murong Fu. As soon as she saw Murong Fu come in, she ran over and threw herself into his arms.
Murong Fu picked up the little girl and put her on his lap.
Master Li looked at this scene with a happy smile on his face.
When Murong Fu asked why it was so busy today, all the girls started talking to each other one after another.
It turns out that it has been a long time since everyone has been together like today. Thinking that there are only a few days left before the Crown Princess is due to give birth, and now that the Crown Prince is able to take charge of her own business, the most asked question among the girls is what are their plans for the future?
Murong Fu did not hide his intentions from them, saying that after the world was pacified, he would abdicate in favor of the crown prince, and then he would take his daughters back to Peach Blossom Island to live a secluded life without fighting against the world.
Li Qinglu's eyes moved slightly, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. She was also looking forward to this day.
However, what she is looking forward to is not the happiness of just a few decades, but the eternity that is out of reach.
After hearing Murong Fu's promise, all the girls were very happy. ?.?????.???
Most of them were born in the Jianghu and were not infatuated with the power and scenery in the palace. All they wanted was to live unrestrainedly with their loved ones without too many rules and restrictions.
"Wherever daddy goes, I will go!"
At this time, the little Lingyin in Murong Fu's arms said playfully, her voice soft and waxy, but very firm.
Murong Fu touched her little head and asked, "Don't you want to stay in the palace and be a princess?"
Xiao Lingyin shook her head and said, "I don't like living in the palace. I want to go to Yanziwu and Peach Blossom Island, which my mother mentioned."
Murong Fu's eyes moved slightly and he glanced at Master Li who was sipping tea. Suddenly, he felt a trace of sadness in his heart. Facing the little girl's longing gaze, he nodded and said, "Okay, from now on, daddy will take you back to Yanziwu and to Peach Blossom Island." "
Xiao Lingyin was very happy after hearing this. She picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
Murong Fu's heart was filled with warmth, and his eyes became gentler when he looked at the little girl.
It was a very lively lunch, and if he hadn't been unable to get out of his way, Murong Fu would only wish it could be like this every day. Now as long as he passed the last hurdle, he would be able to clear all the obstacles in front of him.
The world is already in his hands!
…
The Jin army arrived very quickly, and in less than a day, they had already gathered outside the city.
In addition to the 7,000 Xuanjia troops, plus the remaining Yanlin troops and the city gate defenders, Longcheng could barely make up about 10,000 people.
When the people in the city heard that the Jin soldiers were invading, they spontaneously formed a militia to help defend the city.
After hearing the news, Murong Fu's face was filled with relief, but he did not want civilians to be involved in the war, so he just mobilized all Yanlin troops and city gate defenders, and left the rest to himself.
As the saying goes, soldiers are expensive and quick. The person leading the army this time was Wanyan Aguda's half-brother Wanyan Sheng, who was also the Jin Taizong who succeeded Wanyan Aguda after his death in history.
After the Jin army rushed outside Longcheng, they only repaired on the spot for half a day, and then planned to attack the city overnight. Even if they piled the corpses of Jin soldiers into a human wall, they would still capture Longcheng in one go.
Just when the Jin army blew the horn and prepared to attack the city with all their strength.
At dusk, two slanting shadows reflected by the setting sun appeared in front of the army. The two horses at their crotches were walking slowly, looking particularly calm.
Wanyan Sheng's face darkened, and he originally planned to directly order the entire army to charge, but when he saw the appearance of the person coming clearly, he was suddenly startled and broke the flag in his hand.
The two men who came on horseback walked to the front of the formation, but Wanyan Sheng remained silent. This made the soldiers in the front army a little at a loss. They clenched their spears tightly in their hands, neither killing nor surrendering.
"What? My father and son have both come to your door. Don't you, Wu Qimai, dare to invite me to the military camp for a chat?"
Wu Qimai was Wanyan Sheng's Jurchen name. Murong Fu had known him for almost as long as Wanyan Aguda, so he could be considered an old friend.
Although Wanyan Sheng didn't know what Murong Fu was up to, he saw that there was no army guard behind the two of them, and the two of them came alone without weapons. He thought to himself, even if Murong Fu has great martial arts skills, Don't even think about escaping from this 200,000-strong army. Even if the other party plans to approach you and capture you to threaten the army, it will be useless.
Because he had issued a military order long before he launched the army. The entire army would fight to the last man. Even if he died, he would attack Dragon City until the last soldier was left.
Moreover, if he could trade his own life for the lives of Murong Fu and his son, he thought it would be a good deal.
Thinking of this, it was not that Murong Fu wanted to see him, but that he wanted to lure the two of them deep into the army so that they would never come back.
"Bring them into the big tent and put the entire army on alert!"
Wanyan Sheng smiled contemptuously and turned back to the military tent.
Murong Fu and his son were led by the deputy general through the army and arrived outside the military tent.
Just as the two were about to enter, they were stopped by guards outside the tent and wanted to search them.
How could Murong Fu, who was now the emperor of Yan, be searched by a mere soldier? He frowned coldly and just glanced at the two of them. The other person seemed to have seen something very terrifying, and he sat paralyzed in fear. On the ground, my buttocks felt hot and something flowed out.
"waste!"
The deputy general felt very embarrassed when he saw the two men in such a bad state, and immediately ordered someone to take them away.
But looking at the two swaggering people, he hesitated and still didn't dare to search each other's bodies.
Entering the military tent, Wanyan Sheng couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother Murong arrived just in time. If it had been any later, my brother's wine would have been spilled on the ground."
Murong Fu smiled when he heard this and was not upset about it.
Murong Chengze, on the other hand, was also calm, unfazed by honor and disgrace, and dealt with it calmly.
Seeing that his provocation method didn't work, Wanyan Sheng didn't feel embarrassed and invited the two of them to sit down.
Murong Fu poured himself a glass of wine without any scruples and drank it all in one gulp.
Wanyan Sheng knew very well that Murong Fu would not throw himself into a trap. Seeing that it was him who came to find him, Wanyan Sheng did not say anything when he saw him. He asked angrily, "I didn't know that Brother Murong Fu came to our camp before the battle between the two armies. What's the matter?"
Murong Fu said, "Of course I want to persuade Brother Wanyan to retreat!"
Wanyan Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled coldly and said, "Persuade me to retreat? Brother Murong is probably just talking nonsense. Shouldn't you wait for Kaicheng to surrender? I'm afraid that Dragon City can't even gather a hundred thousand troops at this moment, right?"
Murong Fu raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes were terrifyingly calm, and he said without any tone.
"I can destroy a mere 200,000 troops with a snap of my fingers, so why do I need a hundred thousand?"
Wanyan Sheng's expression changed slightly. He knew clearly that the other party was telling lies, but when he met Murong Fu's eyes, for some reason, a bad premonition suddenly welled up in his heart.
