Xu Zhiqing frowned. As soon as she entered the barracks, Gao Qiu and the others became anxious. Old Gao hurriedly pushed Hu Bugui beside him. "Old Hu, go ask Miss Xu if there is any news of brother Lin?! Whether he is dead or alive, there must be news. This is really making me anxious. "
Hu Bugui looked into the distance, then shook his head in disappointment. "Ask fart. Don't you see the expression of the Military Advisor? If there is news of General Lin, won't she be happier than anyone?! "
Sure enough, Miss Xu was speechless and almost bumped into the yurt next to her. Gao Qiu couldn't help but sigh.
Hu Bugui took a brush and carefully brushed the hair of the ferghana horse beside him. This ferghana horse was given to him by Lin Wanrong before they set off from the capital. Among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, there was only one ferghana horse. It was worthy of being a treasure.
Gao Qiu stroked the horse's soft mane and sighed. "Old Hu, do you think this ferghana horse and China's good horses, one Turkic and one Chinese, can they really give birth to a good horse?!"
"That's natural." Old Hu patted the horse's back and said proudly. "This breeding was proposed by General Lin, how can it be wrong? Just wait, next spring, you can see a foal. "
"That's possible?!" Old Hu nodded his head and said to himself. "What if brother Lin and crescent moon breed? It should be even better! "
Hu Bugui was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed. As he laughed, his eyes turned red.
When they entered the tent, they saw the white-haired General Li Tai with a worried face. He paced back and forth in the tent. As if there was a very difficult matter. Miss Xu secretly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. "Marshal, you were looking for me?!"
"Zhi 'er, you came at the right time." The General handed over a golden silk book. He sighed. "It's about our negotiations with the Turks. The emperor's imperial edict has arrived. "
Xu Zhiqing took the silk book and opened it. The imperial edict was simple and clear. There were only four words: "Lin San decides!"
Miss Xu's face turned pale. He was on the verge of tears. Doesn't His Majesty know that he … "
Li Tai shook his head and said, "Princess Chu Yun is pregnant and will give birth next month. She cannot be agitated. The matter regarding Lin San had to be kept a secret. I have already sent a secret memorial to His Majesty. In the imperial court, only His Majesty alone should know about this matter. I just don't know why Your Majesty still wants to issue this imperial edict? "
He suddenly remembered that he was going to be a father soon. But where was this father now? Was he alive or dead? Was he warm or cold? Miss Xu could no longer restrain herself. Silent tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Zhi 'er –" General Jiang sighed. But he didn't know how to comfort her.
"It's nothing." Xu Zhiqing hurriedly wiped away the tears on her cheeks. He closed the imperial edict. Then, she softly said: "Lin San's decision. In Zhi 'er's opinion, there is only one meaning in the emperor's imperial edict. They had to find him. Dead or alive. "
"Dead or alive?" Li Tai frowned and said: "If Lin San is still alive, then everything will be fine. He should have the final say in this negotiation. But if he is not here – "
"Then it will truly be 'Lin San's decision'. All the lives of the Turks will fall on him!" All of it fell on him alone! "Xu Zhiqing's eyes flashed with a cold light. She gritted her teeth and said.
What a 'Lin San's decision'! The emperor wanted to use Lin San's life and death to decide the fate of the Turks. If Lin San was no longer here. These Turks, whether it was the Little Khan or the Right Prince, there was no need for them to live. China will fight the Turks to the end at all costs.
His Majesty was truly furious! Li Tai slightly nodded his head: "Zhi 'er, do you think Lin San will still be alive?"
"He will definitely be alive. He is so bad – "Miss Xu lowered her head. She was speechless.
Li Tai smiled and said: "That's right. Lin San was always laughing and joking all the time. He had never suffered a loss before. You want to say that he is dead? I don't believe it! "
Xu Zhiqing gritted her teeth: "We have already ignored the Turks for more than a month. If we continue to delay without giving them an answer, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive. Since the emperor has given the decree, why don't we start a negotiation with the Turks. We will talk for a few days and stop for a few days. On one hand, we can wait for Lin San's news. On the other hand, we can probe the Turks and give them some hope so that they will not dare to start a war. What does the marshal think? "
"Good. Let's do it! "Li Tai heavily snorted:" Even the emperor has made up his mind. If Lin San does not come back, we will let the Turks pay with blood! "
…
"Are you going back on your words again?! No way! "With a coquettish voice, a slender hand suddenly stretched out. She grabbed the evil hand that was secretly changing the chess pieces. She rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
"Ah — — Sister has wronged me. I'm just changing the steps I took just now to do an experiment. "
"Isn't that still going back on your words?! I will remember it for you. This is the tenth time! "The fairy laughed and patted his hand.
"Is it, the tenth time? I clearly remember it is only the eighth time! "He smiled mischievously as he took the chess piece back:" Life is already very boring if there is no turning back. If it is the same on the chessboard. Then what is the point of living? Just let me regret it once more, sister?! "
This person could even regret a game of chess in such a righteous and emotional manner. The fairy smiled and pushed the chessboard forward: "No more, no more. This China chess was clearly taught to me by you, but you still can't beat me! "
The little thief laughed and pulled her hand: "That is because sister fairy is smart!"
The fairy tucked him in and jumped off the bed. She lightly flicked the candle on the dim oil lamp and the room became slightly brighter. She looked outside with shyness and joy. The dilapidated courtyard, the tightly bolted door. The muddy mud wall. The black tiled house, the occasional barking of dogs in the alley, the footsteps of people returning at night, the crying of babies, the laughter of the couple next door, everything was so real. Looking inside the house, the simple table and chairs, the teapot on the wall, the celadon with flowers, the dragon and phoenix pillows. Every stitch and thread on the little thief. They were all bought by herself. She could see it so clearly. In her eyes. But it felt like a dream.
Was this all real? She touched her burning cheeks and peeked at the little thief, shyness and indescribable gentleness.
"I have an appointment, but I won't come after midnight. I am idle and play chess. The taste of being a hermit is really different! "Lin Wanrong let out a long sigh, holding his head in his hands and staring at the ceiling. He smiled slightly.
"You are a fake hermit. No matter how you hide, you still hide in this Xing Qing Prefecture. "Ning Yuxi poked his nose. Ning Yuxi poked his nose with a finger. She looked at everything in the room. Every single drop was a condensation of their sweat. Tears welled up in the fairy's eyes. "Little thief. "Little thief, is this really our home? I can't believe it! "
"Although the cold kiln is broken, it can shelter us from the wind and rain. This is our home. I really want to live here for the rest of my life! "He held the fairy in his arms. Smelling the fragrance of her hair. It was indescribably intoxicating.
"Want to live here for the rest of your life?!" Ning Yuxi smiled and said, "Then today at noon. Who is secretly writing home letters? — Grand Mistress, I miss you! Ning 'er, have you painted? Qiaoqiao baby, do you miss me? Yushuang, have you grown up again? — Listening to you. It will make my teeth sore! "
Ning Yuxi was a little annoyed after saying so many girls' names in one breath. She couldn't help but hold his hand tighter.
The little thief sighed faintly. "I do miss them a little. I have been gone for a few months, and there was no news from them. I don't know how many stacks of letters they have given me. If the news of my death reaches them. That is unimaginable. I miss Qing Xuan the most. She is going to give birth next month, sister. Tell me, how can I not miss her?! "
She heard him mention Miss Xiao. Ning Yuxi felt complicated. After a long time, she stroked his hair. Softly, she said, "Tomorrow morning. We will find a place to stay. Send your letters back as soon as possible. So that they won't miss you! The taste of lovesickness. Not everyone can bear it! "
"En, sister is the best." The little thief was grateful. He buried his head in her arms and tried to squeeze.
So smooth. His heart swayed. He couldn't help but look at the two soft bumps. He blew a breath of fairy air.
The little thief's cheeks were like a brazier. It was reflected on his chest, and it kept sliding to and fro on both sides. Ning Yuxi's face turned red and her heart raced. She hurriedly spat and pinched his waist. She said shyly, "You. Your internal injuries have not healed. Don't act rashly. Don't think about messy things. "
"What messy things? I don't understand! "The little thief opened his eyes wide and said innocently," Sister, can you tell me? Can you tell me — although I can't move recklessly, you can! "
She knew this person's temperament. Ning Yuxi smiled and showed the silver needles in her hand. The little thief immediately nodded and said seriously, "En, sister takes care of me day and night, you are too tired. I will go through the books myself. Find out the messy definitions, I don't need to trouble sister to explain it. "
Looking at his resentful look, Ning Yuxi's face turned red, "You fool. How can you joke about your body. It should be yours. It's yours, can it run away?! "
I like to hear that. The little thief obediently lay on her chest. His body stopped moving — his hands started moving!
He couldn't be dishonest, he just had to make a few violent movements. His whole body hurt like it was falling apart! Only his hands could do some free movements, it was fine.
Can't hit. Can't scold. She had to love him like a treasure, touching even a finger of his would make her heart ache. Ning Yuxi had no other choice, she shook her head with a red face, "You, since you want to be a deserter, then be more straightforward. Go back to the capital. How direct and efficient. But now, he was running back and forth. You haven't even left Xing Qing Prefecture. "
"Sister, don't always expose me," Lin Wanrong said with a bitter face, "This movement is very painful!"
Perverted little thief! Ning Yuxi had been with him for a long time and could understand the meaning of his words. She fiercely pinched his waist and snorted, "I am reminding you! Do you know why you lost to me in chess just now? It's not that you can't beat me, it's that your heart is distracted, that's why you lost every step! "
He obediently nodded, lying on the fairy's chest and stopped moving. Even his demonic hands stopped moving around, firmly covering a soft bump.
Pretending to be pitiful! Ning Yuxi's cheeks turned red, her body went soft, she helplessly said, "Don't be mischievous, let me ask you something. That day in the Tu Jue palace, you clearly could have captured Yujia, why didn't you capture her?! "
"Sister, why are you asking such boring questions, can't we sleep together?!" The little thief lazily shook his head, rubbing her chest.
"We can talk about sleeping later." Ning Yuxi's cheeks were hot, "Answer my question first."
The little thief raised his head. His eyes were straight, he sighed, "It's very simple. Capture her. We will never be able to return. "
"Why, did you capture both the Tu Jue and the Khan? Isn't that good?! "Ning Yuxi doubted.
The little thief shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's why, sister. I want you to be a fairy. These deceitful things. It's not suitable for you. Think about it. Yujia only has a few months left to live. I captured her, plus the Right Prince is also in our hands, who will benefit the most? "
"The Tu Jue's Left Prince!"
"Then. If you were him, what would you do? "
"You mean — take the opportunity to kill them all?!" Ning Yuxi was shocked, "Then won't we die together with Yujia?"
Lin Wanrong nodded, "That's the effect. We can push all the crimes of slaughtering the Great Khan and the Right Prince to China. This was a golden opportunity that came once in a blue moon. Who will let it go? And without these ties. The Tu Jue are more unified. At most two or three years, they can turn around. At that time, the border between the two countries will still be in a war. "
"And on the grasslands, the only one who really cares about Sa Er Mu is Yujia, only she is there. Badru doesn't dare to act rashly, and we can pass through the grasslands smoothly. And Sa Er Mu is in my hands. If the two countries have a good negotiation. It can ensure peace at the border for at least 20 years. "
Ning Yuxi said quietly, "What if the negotiation doesn't work out?!"
"Doesn't work out? It doesn't matter. " Lin Wanrong said lightly, "We have captured the Little Khan and Tusozo, and have returned smoothly. The Great Khan of the Tu Jue only has three or four months left to live. By then, the Khans will be destroyed, and the Tu Jue will still fall into Badru's hands. We still have to fight. The only difference is. We didn't sacrifice ourselves on the grasslands. We made a profit. "
After listening to his analysis. Only then did they know how many tricks there were. Ning Yuxi sighed softly, "Look ten steps ahead! No wonder you feel tired. You and Yujia are the same kind of people. "
"Yes, there is no difference between me and her." The little thief sighed tiredly.
Ning Yuxi stroked his hair, her heart aching, "I heard. The negotiation between China and the Tu Jue is between Wuyuan and Bayanhaote. It has already begun. Do you want to go and see — "
"Hoo, hoo." A light snore was heard. When she looked down. He had fallen into a deep sleep.
…
On one side, green grass. On the other side, the wind and sand were rolling, and the grasslands met the desert. Gradually, it spread to the distant horizon.
Within a few hundred miles of Wuyuan and Bayanhaote, the sound of swords could be heard. Warhorses neighed, and the two hundred thousand elite soldiers of China and the Tu Jue were gathered. The warhorses of the Hu were tall and strong. From afar, it looked like a desert storm that could be activated at any time. China, on the other hand, had weapons. They were disciplined, and more than forty new cannons were arranged according to the battle formation. They were ready to fire at any time. Both sides had retreated fifty miles, but they were still facing each other, staring at each other.
At the border of the two countries, the skilled craftsmen of China had put up a long wooden shed that was several miles long. It extended from the desert of China to the grasslands of the Tu Jue. From afar, it looked like a thin straight line.
It was a hot July day. The long shed was filled with fruits and tea. The fragrance was everywhere. If one did not look at the clear dividing line in the middle, one would think that the two countries were having a fellowship party.
According to the agreement between the two sides, the elite soldiers of both countries retreated fifty miles along the border. There were ten people from each side participating in the negotiation, and there were more than twenty guards. They were not allowed to carry weapons. In total, there were less than a hundred people on both sides.
The Turks appeared especially sincere. Lu Dongzan, Badru, and their entourage were all dressed in loose robes to show that they did not have any weapons on them.
Seeing the Chinese people coming from afar, Lu Dongzan was the first to greet them. He folded his arms across his chest and saluted, "Old General Li, Military Advisor Xu, Lu Dongzan pays his respects. This is our Turkic Left King Badru. "
Badru was a stocky man with a ferocious appearance. He glared at the China man and angrily harrumphed. The chief general, however, was not afraid at all. Smiling, he said, "You are General Badru? In the battle of Wuyuan, were the tens of thousands of soldiers of China your subordinates?! "
This was like touching a sore spot. Just as the Left King was about to fly into a rage, he heard a soft snort. Badru's expression tensed and he fell silent.
The two sides stepped into the shed. Lu Dongzan invited General Li and Military Advisor Xu to sit, but he and Badru stood facing each other.
"State Advisor Lu Dongzan, General Badru, why aren't you seated?!" Young Lady Xu asked with a faint smile.
The two Turkic officials lightly shook their heads, placed a palm on their chest, and bowed.
The entourage behind them scattered to the sides, revealing a slender figure in the middle. She silently stood there, the two patches of white at her temples like the purest kapok of the steppe.
