Qing Ping Le · Double Songs

It was the rainy season again, and the heavy rain came and went, which really affected the pace of the march. It had been two days since we left the city, and there was another heavy rain in the evening today. Rong Ling saw that the sky was dark and gloomy, not like ordinary showers, so she ordered to go to the forest Zhazhai.The towering ancient trees covered the sky and the sky became even darker. The soldiers found some dry firewood and lit several fires. Wei Changdong arranged for the sentry post and just returned to his tent when he saw Rong Ling inviting someone to invite him.

In Rong Ling's tent, Rong Che had already changed his clothes and sat quietly in it. It was only when Wei Changdong came into the tent that he heard a voice. Rong Ling asked, "Do you have any countermeasures against the rebels this time?"

The case is an open map of the Eastern Xia Dynasty. Wucheng is near the north of the Dongjiang River, which is where the Jiangbei Camp is located. When King Jingyuan crossed the river, he was bound to confront the Jiangbei Camp head-on, but the rebels marched all the way from south to north After a long time of exhaustion, the Jiangbei camp is waiting for work. If the rebels face the enemy head-on, they will lose their troops and lose their generals.

Wei Changdong said, "Wucheng is the key point. The general thought that Wucheng had already surrendered to King Jingyuan. When the rebels were about to reach the south of the Dongjiang River, the prefect of Wucheng could deliberately confuse the Jiangbei battalion and let the rebels cross the river smoothly. "

"I guess the same way." The Dongjiang River is vast and turbulent. Although the road chosen by King Jingyuan is dangerous, there is only this natural moat in the hunting ground from Nanjiang Road. It is the best strategy compared to directly attacking the capital. . "Jiangping Tianjing sails across the ocean, unless the Jiangbei Camp is controlled, the Dongjiang River must not be easily crossed."

"Sister Huang." Rong Che said, "Any news from Gu Chengfeng?"

Rong Ling raised her eyebrows lightly and her eyes moved, "It seems that Che'er has different news."

Rong Che replied, "The cousin cut off all the news exchanges between the capital and King Jingyuan, and then sent all the intercepted news to me, because the emperor suddenly transferred Gu Chengfeng to Wucheng to sit in the town, and the [-] rebels are already here. The south of Dongjiang slowed down the marching speed."

"So Che'er thinks?"

"The last general thought that if the emperor's sister didn't follow the plan, he would plan to lure the rebels across the river."

Wei Changdong's eyes lit up and he immediately received, "We can go to Wucheng first and garrison at Ming Jiangbei camp to ambush the riverside. When the rebel army crosses the river and is suddenly attacked, we will be in chaos if we don't deal with it. Then [-] elite soldiers will come from behind This battle is sure to be won.”

Rong Ling thought carefully and looked at the map, then nodded, "This plan is feasible, so why not fight on the river? The river is swaying like fire, and it doesn't cost a single soldier to attack."

"The general thought that Ah Che had guessed that King Jingyuan had experience in fighting on the river. If the fire attack could not be wiped out in one fell swoop, the rebels would turn around and flee south on the river. It would be even more difficult for us to cross the river and fight south."

Rong Ling frowned, her gaze stayed on Dongjiang, "Che'er means that?"

"There is only one dangerous obstacle for the rebels to go north. I think carefully that King Jingyuan will strengthen his training on the water. Based on my understanding of him, even if everything is safe, he will leave a way out for himself."

"Whether it's fighting on the river or on the north bank, the rebels must cross the river first. The general thought that His Highness should send an order to Mr. Gu as soon as possible, and let him pretend to let the rebels cross the river first."

Rong Ling frowned and called out, "Come here." The one who came in was Zhao Shouyi, who had survived the disaster at the Sword Trial Villa. He approached the big tent and first saluted one by one. Rong Ling said, "No, come closer." Zhao Shouyi stepped forward After a few steps, she whispered a few instructions in his ear, and Zhao Shouyi received the order and retreated.

Rong Ling said again, "When we go ashore to fight, we will win in danger with [-] against [-]. When the time comes, I will lead [-] forbidden troops to meet the enemy, and you two will lead the [-] elite soldiers of the Jiangbei Camp to attack."

Rong Che said lightly, "No."

Wei Changdong also said, "Your Highness, think twice."

"Since Bengong has come, is it just a display?" Rong Ling's face turned serious, not angry, "I would like to hear what you two can say."

"Your Highness, if you appear, you will force King Jingyuan to jump over the wall in a hurry, and you will die with His Highness, so the last general thinks that His Highness should stay in Wucheng to calm the army."

Rong Che bowed his head in silence, Rong Ling's eyes stayed on her, and he asked, "You think so too."

"Emperor Sister has been estranged from King Jingyuan for a long time, so it's normal not to know his behavior." Rong Che continued, "Besides, Huang Sister is the crown prince and the Eastern Xia community, so she must never put herself in danger."

Rong Ling lowered her gaze to hide the fluctuating emotions in her eyes, and now she hears the words "you are the crown prince" most often, which is harsh to her ears.In the past, she walked recklessly and arrogantly in the rivers and lakes, but since she returned to the palace, it was as if she had been planted close to a gorgeous cage. She had to think twice about every step she made and every word she said. Hands are tied.

Rong Che invited her to fight to sweep away her haze of the past few days. She thought it was a hearty battle to kill the enemy, but she could exercise her restrained muscles and bones for a long time, but she didn't expect that Rong Che would use these four words to trap her into another little girl. The cage of Wucheng.She is the crown prince and the future king of Great Xia, but she has already experienced involuntary and lonely heights.

She was meditating, but she heard Rong Che shout loudly. "Who is coming here?" After seeing that clear shadow flying out, Wei Changdong showed anxiety, bowed and said, "His Royal Highness seems to have an assassin, and he will go to help the Princess." After speaking, he ran out.

Rong Ling also ran to the tent door without thinking, but stopped abruptly when she touched the curtain, and suddenly remembered the phrase "you are the prince" and you should not put yourself in danger.She turned around and walked back to the map to look at it quietly. Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers can be described in an inch, but the owner of the mountains and rivers can't control everything. She is really helpless and lonely.

There is a hunting wind in the treetops, like a bird of prey waiting for the wild, and the rainstorm does not know when it will stop.Orderly footsteps came from the sentry post outside the tent, resolute and orderly, everything seemed normal.

Rong Che chased all the way to the deep forest without seeing anyone. As soon as he landed, Wei Changdong also chased after him. The moon was covered by dark clouds and it was dark and his face was difficult to distinguish.Wei Changdong said, "Did you hear it wrong? I asked the guards and they said they didn't see anyone, maybe it was the noise made by the birds and animals in the deep mountains."

Rong Che's eyebrows suddenly appeared, but he said, "It may be someone from the camp."

"Your Highness is still in the tent, you and I should go back quickly."

Rong Che disappeared before Wei Changdong's eyes like a flash of light and shadow. Rong Che didn't dare to stop all the way and ran all the way to Rong Ling's tent. Seeing her, Rong Ling hurried back again. Smiling, "It's rare to see you so restless, but what did you find?"

Rong Che shook his head lightly, "I'm worried that there will be a response from King Jingyuan in the army."

At this moment Wei Changdong also rushed back, opened the curtain and bowed first, "Your Highness, we have strengthened our vigilance and will definitely find out this internal response."

Rong Ling smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about doing it, you don't have to report it, I'm not as good as the two in marching and fighting, and I need your advice from the two of you."

Wei Changdong hurriedly said, "The general dare not, if there is no other order, the general will leave first."

After Wei Changdong left, Rong Che was not in a hurry to leave. Rong Ling looked at her with a smile and raised her brows slightly and asked, "Is there something else for Che'er?"

Rong Che didn't dodge his gaze, which was rare, but also looked back at her and said, "Sister Huang, Qing Ping's recklessness has offended Sister Huang, and please punish Sister Huang."

Rong Ling's eyes lit up and her smile became even worse. Rong Che was actually concerned about her, and she was upset for a moment. She said, "How do you want to punish you? It's obvious that you brought me here for me, and it's you again Don't let me fight by your side."

"Sister Huang, Qingping is willing to be punished."

"Okay, I told you that you don't need to be too polite when you and I are alone." She approached Rong Che and took her hand, and gently brushed the calluses she had worn out from practicing swords with her fingertips. Dodge was pulled back forcefully by her, "If you make trouble again, I will beat you." After speaking with a smile, he added, "I know you are worried about me, and I also know that your purpose of doing this is to give me military power. I also wanted to I understand, Wucheng can be regarded as the last line of defense, and it won't be useless wherever I defend it."

"How can the emperor be useless? In the future, the emperor will be the king of the Great Xia, and she will definitely make the country under the rule of the Great Xia peaceful and peaceful, and the people rich."

"It's hard for you to say so many words just to comfort me." Rong Ling was in a happy mood, and joked with a smile, "How can a thousand miles of rivers and mountains be governed by one's own strength, but each has his own position and responsibility, Che'er , Since ancient times, kings have called themselves widows, will you stay by my side in the future?"

Rong Che was taken aback, but he was a little flustered and afraid, but fortunately he was used to indifference and said, "I will definitely guard the southern border for Miss Huang."

Rong Ling smiled again, and glanced at her, "You, you are stubborn and rigid, go back and rest as soon as it gets late, the weather will be fine tomorrow after the rain."

Rong Che saluted, "Miss Huang also needs to rest earlier, so I will retire first."

Back in the tent, Dafu was carefully cleaning her armor. When she saw her coming back, she hurriedly turned around to salute. She wandered around and didn't move her expression. Dafu stepped forward and asked again, "Master is going to rest?"

"Where's Xiaofu?"

Dafu replied, "Xiaofu just went out to fetch hot water for the master." At this moment, Xiaofu returned to the tent with a bucket of hot water, looked at the master and lowered his head in panic, and asked, "Master Are you in a hurry?"

Rong Che stared at the two of them and said, "It's okay, just step back."

Erfu was about to leave the big tent, Xiaofu still kept his head down and remained silent, Dafu hesitated to speak a few times but just looked at him, and finally turned into a sigh, "It's getting late, hurry up and get some water back."

"I'll go right away." Xiaofu said and left quickly.

In the morning of the next day, the rain was over and the weather was fine, and the heat was swept away by the heat again. The scorching sun was still on the march, and Rong Ling's sweat continued to flow down her temples.Glancing from the corner of the eye, the indifference between Rong Che's brows on the side remained undiminished. She has been trained for a long time and can naturally be calm and not disturbed by the heat.

Although Rong Che had sensed Rong Ling's impatience early in the morning, she was afraid of being delayed on the way, so she didn't say much. She didn't say anything until the soldiers arrived at noon, "Sister Huang, it's already noon and the sun is too poisonous to leave."

Rong Ling said as if she had received an amnesty, "General Wei ordered the three armies to suspend their march and go to the forest to rest."

"Yes."

Rong Ling found a shady place to lean against a big tree and close her eyes to rest. Rong Che approached her and handed her a water bag and sat down beside her. of?"

With steady eyes, Rong Che said, "You can't relax in the slightest when marching and fighting."

"Che'er, what does Nanjiang look like?"

"There are thousands of miles of wild clouds without city walls, and the rain and snow continue to reach the desert." This is the southern border in Rong Che's memory, the endless wilderness, the wild geese fly south in a row, and the vastness and magnificence unfolds before his eyes.

Rong Ling felt that her eyes seemed to be able to see the end of the world, so she couldn't help praising, "It's so beautiful."

"If there is a chance, Miss Huang can go to Nanjiang to see her."

Rong Ling smiled and said, "It's a deal."

After arranging the garrison of the three armies, Wei Changdong came back and reported, "General, the general thinks it's too hot to march at this time, why not just rest in the forest and march at night after sunset."

Rong Ling nodded, "I will listen to General Wei."

After Wei Changdong took the order, he left and ordered to set up camp. Rong Ling said again, "When you moved to southern Xinjiang with the army, I often saw you off at the places you passed by. Later I found out that Ah Cheng also cried and saw you off all the way."

In the past few days, Rong Che has been guessing that Rong Cheng should also know all about the reasons for the Taishan Rebellion. Nanjiang must also have such considerations, but now King Jingyuan's rebellion against the Queen is bound to be dragged into Changning Palace.

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "If Your Majesty makes things difficult for the Changning Palace without reason, what will happen to Miss Huang?"

"Why did Your Majesty embarrass King Chang Ning for no reason, not to mention that King Chang Ning has not asked about government affairs for more than ten years, and has very little contact with courtiers. How could His Majesty do this?" She paused, then smiled, "Are you afraid of Jing?" Yuan Wang's rebellion will make His Majesty suspicious and implicate Chang Ning Palace? Che'er, you are overthinking."

Rong Che stretched his brows and said unhurriedly, "I just want to ask how Sister Huang will do it."

Rong Ling looked at her complexion carefully, and there was no abnormality, so she replied, "If King Chang Ning is indeed guilty, then I will act according to the order, and if I am implicated for no reason, I will also intercede for the Uncle Wang's family in front of His Majesty. "

Rong Che knew that there was nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime, even if the eldest princess interceded, it would be difficult to turn things around, but it was better to make preparations early, she said, "Sister, you order people to always pay attention to the movement of Changning Palace, I am worried that something will happen. "

Rong Ling heard that her words were sincere and did not seem to be fake, so she said solemnly, "Okay, don't worry." She summoned her entourage to order things, and then felt that Rong Che really cared about Rong Cheng, and felt sour in her heart, so she teased, "Ah Cheng It was not in vain to cry all the way, let you remember this time in your heart."

Rong Che's eyes dodged, and he said helplessly, "If sister Huang has something to do, Rong Che will definitely do his best."

"You." Rong Ling felt that the two of them got along so awkwardly, which was very funny, and said, "I can't do anything with you, you don't listen to what I say, but I can't beat you, sooner or later I will be angry with you dead."

"Miss Huang, don't talk nonsense."

After Wei Changdong gave all the instructions, he came back and stayed on the other side of Rong Ling. When he came back, the two sisters were silent for some reason, one continued to close their eyes and rest, and the other held the water bag and looked into the distance.Xiaofu brought back the horse that Rong Che had fed, and Dafu followed closely behind him, and the whole afternoon seemed to pass leisurely.

For two days in a row, [-] imperial troops went out day and night, and the silent night always echoed with the sound of orderly and dull footsteps. At dawn, the march stopped and set up camp. Rong Che returned from the main tent to his own tent, but he did not find Dafu. Where did Xiaofu go? These days Dafu and Xiaofu are always inseparable.

Just as he was about to sit down, he heard Xiaofu outside the tent say, "Master, the meal is ready, do you want to use it now?"

"Bring it in."

Xiaofu walked in holding the food box with his head down, his expression was deliberately concealed, Rong Che had no doubt that he picked up the military book that he had read half of yesterday and continued to study, Xiaofu slowly arranged the bowls and chopsticks by the table, Rong Che's brows were furrowed Yizheng was about to ask, but saw a light and shadow stabbing at her from the side without warning.

Xiaofu was holding a short dagger and brushing the hair beside her ear, but fortunately she dodged swiftly and in time the stab only broke a few hairs.

Rong Che's eyes darkened, his sleeves swung lightly, and a strong internal force was thrown out, hitting Xiaofu's chest, Xiaofu immediately flew backwards and broke the wooden support that supported the tent, followed by a mouthful of blood spraying out.Although the big tent was damaged, it could barely support it. Rong Che walked over step by step and looked down at Xiao Fu who was lying on the ground, and asked coldly, "You were also that night?"

Xiao Fu wanted to get up and fight again, but he couldn't support himself and fell back to the distance, "I am the prince, so naturally I want to get rid of you, a traitor, for the prince."

"What did you do to Dafu?"

Xiaofu froze for a long time before saying, "Master, it is Xiaofu who is sorry for master, but my brother doesn't know anything, so please spare his life."

"Come here." Rong Che called, and the guard outside the door promised, "Go and check the whereabouts of Dafu." The guard outside the tent took the order and left.

Xiaofu was already very flustered, "Master, please spare my brother."

Rong Che only said expressionlessly, "Are you going to kill yourself or let me do it myself?"

Xiaofu knew that there was no way to recover, not to mention that he had betrayed Rong Che and Dafu's life and death were beyond his control, so he raised the dagger and cut it towards his throat, the blood flowed profusely and he was paralyzed in an instant.

Rong Che watched him coldly until he was completely dead, then called, "Come here." After a short pause until the guards outside the tent entered, Fang said, "Bury him."

Wei Changdong knew it was not good when he heard Rong Che's people looking for Dafu, so he rushed to the tent, and saw Xiaofu's body coming out of the tent, so he asked, "What happened?"

Rong Che only said, "You came just in time to send an order to leave, I'll go invite Huang Jie."

Wei Changdong looked around and knew that there was a reason for the incident, so he hurried out to order without asking, Rong Che's eyes dimly fell on the map Dongjiang, and the setting sun outside the tent shone like blood on the ground.
