She didn't have many things, so she packed them quickly. Qing Fei was nowhere to be seen while she was carrying the bundle. She frowned and walked out, only to find Qing Fei standing in front of Wei Ning, talking anxiously.
Wei Ning lowered his head and listened carefully to what she said, nodding from time to time.
Shen Yinxiao called her, and Qing Fei hurried over and took the bundle in her hand.
Wei Ning also strode forward, glanced at the bundle in Qing Fei's hand, and said, "I heard from Qing Fei that Madam Shen is leaving?"
She said "Hmm" and said, "Brother Wei, could you please lend us two horses?"
Wei Ning did not answer well: "Madam, wait a moment, I will ask the general for instructions, and then I will make arrangements for my wife."
He walked a few steps and then turned back: "I guess the general won't have time for a while. Madam, please put down your baggage first and go back to the tent to rest and wait."
Shen Yinxiao was too lazy to wait any longer, so she planned to take Qing Fei away first. On the way, she would meet a donkey cart rental store and rent another one. As soon as Wei Ning left, she pulled Qing Fei out.
Yesterday, everyone in the army watched their coach come back with a woman in his arms. Today, when they saw the woman coming out of the Chinese army's tent, they all pretended not to see her. Shen Yin, who was returning from patrol, happened to bump into Shen Yin, who didn't look good. Xiao came out and had a meal.
Shen Yinxiao walked straight past him without squinting.
Sheng Qi wanted to speak, but didn't know how to stop him. After pondering for a while, he asked the soldiers beside him where the general was now. When he learned that he was in Guo Sima's tent, he strode towards Guo Yan's tent.
There was a lot of excitement in Guo Yan's tent.
On weekdays, everyone always went to Wei Cheng's big tent for discussions. Suddenly, everyone came to his place today, which made him a little flattered. He didn't even have enough tea to greet them, so he asked people to borrow some from other tents. , make tea for Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng drank the freshly brewed tea with an expressionless face, read the letter brought by Shen Yinxiao, stuffed it into the envelope, and handed it to Guo Yan.
Guo Yan reached out to take it.
The envelope still retains the faint fragrance of the woman, including the fragrance of soap locust, jasmine, body fragrance on the woman's skin, and the bitter fragrance after rolling among the grass and trees. The various smells are intertwined and mixed into a faint fragrance. , a faint sweet fragrance.
Wei Cheng paused and immediately retracted his hand.
Guo Yan was confused and looked at him blankly, his hands frozen in the air.
Could it be that the letter contained secrets that even he couldn't read, so that the general didn't want to give him a look?
A slight frustration welled up in my heart. I had followed the general for almost ten years, but I didn't expect that he was not the general's confidant.
Although he thought so in his heart, he just coughed with a calm expression on his face, and with some embarrassment, he took back his hand and took a sip of the tea in front of him.
After Wei Cheng retracted his hand, he took the letter out of the envelope and handed the letter over again with his other hand.
Guo Yan paused. Although he didn't know why, he still took it with both hands.
He glanced at ten lines: "It seems that Zhang Yao was afraid that the lord would not agree, so he specially opened the way for the eldest son, and wanted the eldest son to persuade the lord. Zhang Yao had a big appetite, and he was in a stalemate with the lord in person, while secretly convincing him The lord raises a flag to rebel against Dong, but he is afraid that he will surrender on the surface, but secretly he is ambitious and wants to see the lord and Dong Yan quarrel with each other, and he will benefit. If the lord wants to cooperate with him, I am afraid he must be more careful. "
"Being ambitious is not a bad thing." He said calmly, then turned around and asked Wei Ning to go to his tent to get some better tea and give it to Guo Yan.
Wei Ning nodded and turned around to go out.
"When Liu Min died and his adopted son with an unjust reputation came to power, the people below were naturally angry. It is indeed a wise move to rush to find a backer at this time."
Guo Yan nodded: "What my lord said is true."
"My lord, do you mean to accept Zhang Yao's proposal? Otherwise, the news that Youzhou was besieged by Jizhou and Heishan would not be spread." Guo Yan stroked his beard and knew that the young man in front of him had more ambitions than Youzhou. , I was even more glad that I had chosen the right person.
"In this case, what banner should be raised? Zhang Yao's proposal is to use the banner of Hejian or Zhongshan King to raise troops to rebel against Dong, and then promise heavy profits to the Xiongnu, South Vietnam and other countries, and join forces to fight against Dong. Dong Yan's men except Sili There are still 300,000 soldiers and horses from Xiliang. I’m afraid there will be a lot of fierce fighting, so my subordinates will have to prepare more food and military supplies in advance.”
Wei Cheng sneered: "Uniting with the Hu tribe is tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house. If it is true as Zhang Yao said, the world will be in chaos. The Hu tribe from the north will march straight in, and the Han people can only move south to avoid the chaos. Zhang Yao is really ruthless. First of all, He killed his stepbrother by cooperating with me inside and outside, and seized his stepsister and family property, and now he makes such wild and ambitious remarks."
Guo Yan thought the same and was relieved to learn that Wei Cheng did not agree to lead the barbarians into the pass.
"Didn't Qiu Liang want to see me again?" Wei Cheng narrowed his eyes and leaned back. Wei Ning had already returned with the tea leaves. Wei Cheng raised his hand and pressed it, motioning for him to put it aside. "Find an opportunity and bring him here."
He raised his chin and called to Wei Ning: "What's wrong? What's going on?"
Wei Ning said: "It's nothing, it's just that Mrs. Shen said she was leaving, and my subordinate asked her to go back to the tent to rest for a while. When I went back to get tea, I didn't see her."
Wei Cheng's expression suddenly changed. Without even hearing a word, he suddenly stood up and strode out.
He walked with wind, stepped into the Chinese army's tent in two or three steps, opened the curtain, and found that it was empty inside.
There is still the shadow of that girl somewhere.
An inexplicable emotion surged up, overwhelming him.
Confused, anxious, puzzled, and angry all made his brow bones ache.
Walk?
Where to go?
Do you really want to leave?
I'm so used to just slap my butt and leave if I don't agree with you!
His arms were shaking faintly, his heartbeat was beating inexplicably fast, and his whole body was feeling hot.
His face was ashen, he pushed Wei Ning away who was catching up in a hurry, and shouted angrily: "Prepare your horse!"
Guo Yan stopped him: "Not so, general. If you want to pursue me, just let General Wei go. The general has a body of gold, so don't take risks!"
"Step aside!"
Wei Cheng used his backhand to lift him up and throw him aside, but as soon as his hand squeezed his arm, he let go.
With this throw, according to Guo Yan's body bones, half of his life would be lost if he did not die, so he stopped his strength, just gently opened it, and went straight to the Zhaoye Jade Lion.
One man and one horse galloped away and ran out of the military camp.
Just now, Sheng Qi said in a hurry that he had not seen them riding horses or riding in carriages. He thought they were going out. He couldn't help but laugh while sitting on the horse.
I really don’t know whether to say she has backbone or is cute and silly.
This mountain road has many twists and turns, and it would be impossible to walk for three days and three nights just by relying on those short legs.
When he reached a fork in the road, he reined in his horse and stopped.
One road goes to the hinterland of Jizhou, one goes to Bingzhou, and the other goes to Youzhou.
He thought for a moment, then with a sullen face, he galloped towards Bingzhou.
After half a cup of tea, he stopped under a big cypress tree and looked at the woman resting under the tree with a gloomy look.
It really is this way.
His jaw was so tense that the reins in his hands almost dug into his palms.
Shen Yinxiao was taking off his clothes and was about to look at the wounds on his chest when he suddenly heard the rapid sound of horse hooves behind him. He quickly tightened his clothes, stood up and pulled Qing Fei to leave.
However, the man and the horse stopped in front of the two of them in an instant. The Zhaoye Jade Lion snorted and breathed hot air. The horse's head was stuck in front of her eyes. Shen Yinxiao pursed his lips and had a cold face. Take half a step back.
"What are you doing here?" Her voice was cold and nasal.
"Where are you going?" A word came out of the man's teeth, his slightly upward phoenix eyes narrowed, and he looked at her coolly.
"You don't have to worry about it." She threw aside the mashed herbs she just picked from the roadside, clapped her hands, and tilted her head to signal Qing Fei: "Let's go."
Qing Fei followed behind tremblingly, shrinking his neck.
The two gazes above their heads were so intense that they almost stared into two holes.
Wei Cheng took a deep breath and warned himself not to get angry. He glanced at the medicine residue on the ground and frowned: "Where is it hurt?"
He jumped off his horse, grabbed her arm with a trembling hand, and glanced up and down.
"When did you get hurt?"
In fact, Shen Yinxiao didn't want to cry.
Everyone who should cry has cried, but I don’t know why. When he asked, the tears rolled down one by one as if they were broken.
Wei Cheng froze, and the strength in his hand was obviously reduced, but he still held her arm and refused to let go.
"Go back with me." His voice was inexplicably calm, and his black eyes looked at her face motionlessly.
"Go back, I don't care about anything anymore." He repeated, his hands trembling unconsciously again.
"Chen Yinxiao, you have to die by my side. If you dare to die, I will make your ashes into bracelets and wear them on you every day, so that you can watch how I starve your parents to death and then break their bones. Sweeping ashes.”
