Empress Chu

The sound entered the sky and shook the heavens and the earth.

Chu Zhao looked at Mili's soldiers, how nice they were, they were all alive and not dead, she laughed, let go of the reins and let the horse gallop.

When I drove into the camp, I saw the chief generals of the two groups of soldiers and horses, listened to them talk about the many movements after the farewell, and also learned about the situation in the capital.

"The king of Zhongshan's soldiers and horses are extremely hateful. Using the people as shields, half of the city was killed or injured."

Hearing that Chu Zhao didn't speak, he nodded.

"Your Majesty, don't be sad." A general hurriedly said, "Fortunately, you stopped in time to avoid greater casualties. You have done well enough."

Chu Zhao shook his head: "I'm fine, I'm fine, I understand everything, it's already great to be able to do this."

Sitting in the deep palace in that life, she could often hear the imperial court fighting with the Xie family. She lost a city and a county. At that time, she had no idea. Now she has personally experienced the night chaos in the capital, the fighting in the border counties, and the siege. In Zhongshan County, she knew that the so-called one city and one county represented countless lives.

Chu Zhao told them to wait for Master Huang's dispatch and then came out.

"Xiaoman Xiaoman." Chu Zhao shouted.

A Le came over from the side: "Miss, you forgot that Xiao Man and Captain Bai went to Xiao Xun's side."

Chu Zhao smiled: "I forgot."

Before I knew it, I got used to Xiaoman being by my side.

"Miss, what are you looking for from her?" A Le asked, "Xiao Man explained everything before she left, and someone else—"

She stopped before she finished speaking, and looked in one direction. Not far away, a woman stood still and looked at them.

Ah Le hurriedly said, "Oh, it's Aunt Ding."

Ale still doesn't know the true identity of Mu Mianhong. Although she can't see that she is Ding Dachui's wife, she doesn't investigate further. They are all bandits.

Mu Mianhong came over and said: "I heard Xiaoman called, Xiaoman told me before leaving, so I came to see, you—" Her eyes froze on Chu Zhao, "What do you want?"

Chu Zhao nodded and shook his head: "No instructions." Then he hurriedly said, "I just want to ask about the latest things. I only know the general idea in it, and I don't know the details. Everyone is okay, after all, what you did very dangerous."

Mu Mianhong said with a smile: "Everything is fine, everything is going well. Although Mr. Chu Lan was frightened, he is fine. Ms. Chu Tang is also very alert. Xiao Man will take them back to the capital personally."

Chu Zhao nodded.

Mu Mianhong said again: "The battle situation in Bian County is also good. The battle was fierce, but it did not fall."

Chu Zhao nodded again: "It's good, I knew it, there's nothing wrong with it."

Mu Mianhong looked at her and said, "With you, you are so brave, and everyone is full of energy."

"I'm not that brave." Chu Zhao shook his head hurriedly, and said, "This time I can turn the danger into a bargain and get what I want, thanks to you."

Mu Mianhong hurriedly said: "Without you, everyone would not, dare not do this."

Although what the two of them said was normal, it was completely abnormal. A Le, who was standing by the side, was inexplicably nervous, and couldn't help but interrupted: "How about, miss, you guys, let's sit down and talk about it in detail." ?”

Sit down and talk about it, Chu Zhao was silent, and Mu Mianhong didn't speak, and A Le pinched his fingers, which seemed to make the atmosphere even more tense——

"cough!"

At this moment, a heavy coughing sound came from a distance.

Hearing this voice, Chu Zhao turned his head instantly, and saw a young general standing in front of the tent behind him at some point.

Seeing Chu Zhao looking over, he leaned over and saluted: "My lord, my regards—"

Chu Zhaoha interrupted him before he finished worshiping, and Ah Le also shouted excitedly: "Ah Jiu!"

Following Ah Le's shout, Chu Zhao raised his foot and ran towards him, stopped after running a few steps, and looked back at Mu Mianhong.

"Aunt Mu." She said, "Lieutenant Xie Du is here, I'm going to ask about the details of Bianjun."

Mu Mianhong smiled and nodded: "Go quickly."

Chu Zhao didn't say any more, turned around and hurried towards Xie Yanlai, stood still in front of Xie Yanlai, and asked anxiously, "Why are you here? When did you come?"

Xie Yanlai gave half of the gift but didn't finish it, she raised her eyebrows: "Aren't you relieved to see me?"

Chu Zhao looked at him, smiled, put his hand on his heart and let out a long breath.

"Yes, seeing you, Ah Jiu." She said, "My heart fell to the ground."

Why does it sound weird?Xie Yanlai frowned: "Don't say weird things."

Chu Zhao raised his eyebrows at him: "You were the one who said it first. You first said how much you are trusted in my heart. When I see you, I don't worry about anything."

"Nonsense." Xie Yan said, "I'm clearly talking about you standing with Mu and the village master, and the embarrassment is about to go underground. Once I show up, you don't have to stumble with others anymore, and you can breathe a sigh of relief. .”

Chu Zhao laughed: "You're just talking nonsense, you obviously only said one sentence, how could there be so many words."

Xie Yanlai snorted and didn't bother to expose her.

Chu Zhao glanced again at the direction where Mumianhong was. Mumianhong had already turned and walked away. She let out another breath and lowered her eyes slightly.

"I don't actually resent her." She whispered, "I didn't have a mother since I was a child. I'm used to not having a mother. I don't know how to get along with her."

Xie Yan looked at the distance: "You are asking the wrong person. Although I have more time with my mother than you, I have forgotten how to get along with my mother. Our son's family is all aiming far away, and mother-in-law and mother-in-law are never concerned. care--"

Chu Zhao was amused again, and raised his head to look at Xie Yanlai, yes, there are no mothers in this world, and there are many people who don't know how to get along with mothers.

"Why are you here?" she asked again, "When did you arrive?"

Xie Yanlai looked at the sky: "The Empress has won a big victory, Bian County has also benefited a lot, the pressure has been reduced a lot, Deputy General Zhong is worried about you, and urged me to take a look three times a day. It didn't take long, and I didn't say anything, I was waiting for you outside the camp, and then I saw that you had something to discuss with Mu Zhaizhu, so I didn't dare to disturb you."

His last two words draw out his voice.

Chu Zhaosu said: "Captain Xie, you are an important minister of the imperial court. Don't be polite in the future. You must disturb me anytime and anywhere."

Xie Yanlai couldn't help raising her head and laughing loudly.

Laughter came from behind, Mu Mianhong looked back and saw the young man standing like a bamboo and the girl standing beside him, she also smiled slightly.

Although her daughter is extremely uncomfortable facing her, there are still people in this world who make girls willing to laugh, which proves that her daughter is not alone.

Even without parents, if you still have love in your heart, if you dare to love, you can live a happy and comfortable life.

Chapter 1 and Four

"It's not easy for you, Uncle Zhong."

Xie Yanfang declined Chu Zhao's invitation to talk in the tent, and sat on the ground directly.

"The king of Xiliang is beating like crazy, and not everyone in the frontier army's five-way general is so obedient and has his own thoughts."

He glanced at Chu Zhao with a half-smile.

"You, Uncle Zhong, are much worse than your father."

Chu Zhao sat down beside him and nodded: "I know, Uncle Zhong is my father's lieutenant general after all, and his status is definitely not comparable to my father's. He took over hastily, but give him some time, his talent Don't lose to my father."

In the last life, Uncle Zhong also hastily took over, not only able to defeat Xiliang, but also to fight against the Xie clan.

Of course, Xiao Xun also used the queen's name to support Uncle Zhong.

It's just that this support is not to stabilize Uncle Zhong's position, but to consume it, let him be a sword, hack and kill everywhere, whether it is the Longwei Army or the frontier army left by his father, they will be split and taken away. Besieged on all sides, he died in the chaos.

Seeing the girl's eyes drooping, Xie Yanlai thought for a while, forget it, let's not say too harsh words, just as the thought flashed across her, Chu Zhao looked up again and smiled at him.

"Besides, I asked you to help him on purpose." She said with a smile.

Don't be obedient, Xie Yanlai scoffed: "The Xie family's name is both a blessing and a curse, you don't have to be so happy."

As a child of the Xie family, he sits in the frontier army. Many people flatter the Xie family and give him face, but the Xie family's reputation also makes many people hate, and they wait for the opportunity to take a bite.

Chu Zhao smiled again: "I use you, don't be afraid of the others."

Xie Yanlai said coldly: "So you think that with me, a kind-hearted person protecting your Uncle Zhong, you can die together with others without any worries?"

Chu Zhao smiled: "I'm obviously brave and fearless, but you're talking like I'm looking for death."

"What is it not to seek death?" Xie Yan asked, "How dare you say that you did not seek death? Did you survive because you were brave? You survived only because King Zhongshan was afraid of death. What if King Zhongshan was not afraid of death?"

He sneered.

"If it were me and you threatened me alone, I wouldn't care what happens in the future, I'll kill you first."

Chu Zhao said loudly: "When I didn't threaten you, you would have killed me."

Xie Yanlai said angrily: "You want to talk about the riverside thing for the rest of your life, right? It's the same thing to talk about it every now and then?"

Chu Zhao shook his head, and said again: "The king of Zhongshan is not you."

She looked into the distance, leaned on her knees and smiled.

"Ah Jiu, there are not many people in this world who are not afraid of death like us. They have too much and have too many ties. We are different. We have nothing. We are lonely and fearless. When we die, we die. That's it."

"Don't blame me for thinking this way, people like us, if we are afraid of death, we won't be able to live."

Xie Yanlai snorted: "Don't take us one at a time, you are you, I am me, it's different." After saying that, she lay on her back on the ground.

Unknowingly, the spring grass has covered the ground, and it is green.

"Besides, I'm not overheated and looking for death." Chu Zhao pointed to him and said, "I have Xiaoman and the others. Their identities are hidden and no one knows. It's just awesome."

Xie Yanlai snorted, but didn't speak.

Chu Zhao rested his head on his hands and looked ahead again, lowering his voice: "However, I was a little surprised that this matter was really done."

After all, although Zhongshan King died early in that life, Xiao Xun and Xie Shi fought for ten years——

Does this mean that she snuffed out the signs of a ten-year war?

Of course, the matter was not over yet, and King Zhongshan's retreat was only temporary. Although he had confiscated [-] soldiers, King Zhongshan still had [-] soldiers and horses.

However, she defeated King Zhongshan and imprisoned Xiao Xun in the capital, which she did really well!

"I think I'm really good."

Xie Yanlai beside her didn't hum.

"How can you stop talking when I'm powerful?" Chu Zhao snorted, turned his head, and saw the young man beside him with his head resting on his arms, his eyes closed——

She was startled.

"Thanks—" she blurted out to shout, but covered her mouth again the next moment, watching the young man's chest rise and fall slowly, and his long eyelashes flutter slightly.

It is asleep.

He actually fell asleep.

Chu Zhao put down his hands and looked at the sleeping young man.

She asked him why he came earlier, and he said that because the matter was settled and the pressure from the frontier army was relieved and Uncle Zhong urged him, she asked him when he arrived, and he said he had just arrived.

It didn't take long before the matter was settled, and he must have been on his way day and night.

Earlier he said that Uncle Zhong's part was not easy.

Uncle Zhong is not easy, is it easy for him?

Uncle Zhong has been in the frontier army for decades, that is, it is not easy to sit in the position of the chief general and give orders. In fact, if you want people, you will do things.

As for Xie Yanlai, he is young, even if he is a child of the Xie family, but on this battlefield, swords and guns have no eyes, who will tell you who is the child of the family.

On the battlefield he is just himself.

You have to rely on yourself for everything.

Chu Zhao moved to his side and looked at his face. At first glance, his face was beautiful, but when he looked closely, it was covered with roughness, and there seemed to be scratches on his temples——

What about him?

Chu Zhao looked into his neck again, stretched out his hand and gently lifted his skirt——

A Le walked over on tiptoe, saw this scene, stood still, blinked and blinked, and whispered: "Miss, what are you?"

He had wounds on his body, and he had already been wrapped up. What she was doing to see this, Chu Zhao sat down awkwardly, and said, "It's okay, I'll just take a look."

Miss can watch it if she wants, Ale said: "Let me help you - he is not wearing armor, and the clothes can be easily undone."

Chu Zhao held back a smile and waved his hands: "Don't make trouble, he is asleep." After thinking for a while, "You bring a cloak, and I'll cover him."

Although the weather is warmer now, sleeping in the open air is going to catch the cold.

……

……

When Xie Yanlai slowly opened her eyes, she saw a sky full of stars.
