I heard that the bamboo horse has a crush on me

"I went to Luzhou with his brother and sister-in-law. Why, miss him?"

Ji Beicheng shook his head, with the same expression as usual, "Just ask. I heard that he is good at painting when I was in the academy, and I want to ask him to take two paintings back."

Shen Bi didn't take it seriously, "He left me a few pictures in the guest room of another courtyard. Go and see what you like, and you can take it. I thought the Marquis would even be jealous of him?"

Ji Beicheng didn't want to talk about this at first, but when he heard Shen Bi mentioned it, he said, "I don't believe that Lord Hou can't see that he has unreasonable thoughts about you."

"You're thinking too much. I took him in because I was grateful for how much he took care of me in Changsong."

"I'm afraid the other party won't think so."

Shen Bi didn't speak.

Three days later, Ji Beicheng left for Dali, and Shen Bi sent him out of the city.

Ji Beicheng took two steps and turned his head, reluctant to leave.

Standing at the gate of the city, Shen Bi blew the northwest wind for a long time, wrapped her mink velvet cloak tightly, and urged Ji Beicheng, "Are you still going?"

I thought that urging him would work, but Ji Beicheng got off his horse and walked towards him.

Looking at the scene, Yuan Qi knew that he couldn't leave for the time being, so he said to his followers, "Turn your faces away, and walk a hundred meters forward!"

Seeing Ji Beicheng, Shen Bi smiled in relief, and sighed while touching his forehead.

Ji Beicheng held his frozen face in the cold wind, forcing him to look at himself, "They all walked away."

Shen Bi blushed, "So what?"

Ji Beicheng scratched his frozen red nose, and said with a smile, "I'm leaving too, won't Master Hou express it?"

Shen Bi turned his head away and muttered: "If you have something to show, go quickly!"

Ji Beicheng sighed in a low voice, with a helpless and indulgent tone, "I really can't do anything about you." He pulled Shen Bi towards him, bowed his head and kissed him for a long time before releasing him satiated.Then he rubbed Shen Bi's nose with his nose, and said aggrievedly: "Master Hou, I'm really leaving!"

"En." Shen Bi raised her head and kissed him back proactively for the first time. "Be careful on the road."

Only then was Ji Beicheng satisfied, he got on his horse and rode off with his whip.

Four days after returning to Dali, Ji Beicheng received a letter from Yuanqi. "This is what we found from the messenger."

"How did the reporter deal with it?"

Yuan Qi said: "Don't worry, general, we have detained the people and the boat together, and we will only wait for the general's orders."

Ji Beicheng nodded, "Grinding!"

After thinking for a long time, he wrote back a letter, handed it to Yuan Qi, and said, "Release him in half a month, and ask him to bring this letter to Fu Zhuo. Tell him what to say."

Yuan Qi put the letter away, and asked one more question, "General, don't you plan to tell Lord Hou about Old Master Shen? You can't hide this matter for too long."

Of course Ji Beicheng knew that he couldn't hide it, but if he told Shen Bi now, he might go to sea again, and Fu Zhuo might rebel at any time. At this time, he could not leave Yunchu no matter what.

"I've already sent someone to find out the news, let's talk about it after these things have passed!" It's been seven or eight years, and these few months are not bad.

After Fu Zhuo received the reply, he was very angry.He didn't expect that Prince Renhe would cut off his cooperation on the eve of his rebellion.Fortunately, he had made extra preparations, and King Wen of Yandan Kingdom could use it.However, he no longer has the extra energy to deal with Shen Bi. Firstly, he is far away from the troubled places in the capital, and dealing with him will only get twice the result with half the effort. Secondly, he has more important things to do—secretly gather troops.As long as the rebellion is successful, it will be a matter of time before Shen Bi is cleaned up.

Not long after the beginning of spring, Northern Zhou's Princess Heqin was stabbed to death in Yunchu. With this, Northern Zhou raised an army of 20 and approached Hanguan.Immediately afterwards, a plague broke out in the three counties in the western region, and it was fierce. Fu Zhuo invited him to go to control the spread of the epidemic.But Shen Bi knew that if he went, it would be the opposite.

All of a sudden, Yun Chu was in dire straits, with internal and external troubles.

What will the emperor do?What will Ji Beicheng do?Ever since Shen Bi got the news, he was worried every single day.

Seeing that he was depressed every day, Lu Lin deliberately came to comfort him.

"The general must trust the emperor, no matter how serious the situation is, it will be fine in the end."

Shen Bi smiled at his blind self-confidence, "What do you think the emperor will do to turn the crisis into a turning point?"

Naturally, Lu Lin has not reached the point where he can guess the holy will.

Seeing that he couldn't speak, Shen Bi asked himself and answered: "Once Fu Zhuo starts trouble, the emperor will definitely send Ji Beicheng to the west to attack He Lianjin back and forth."

Lu Lin was startled and said, "But didn't the Northern Zhou Dynasty send 20 troops to station outside Hanguan? Once General Helian leaves, they can't immediately attack the city?"

Shen Bi knew beforehand: "So, after he leaves, I will immediately go north to Hanguan to join General Luo Yu."

Shen Bi predicted things like a god, and within a few days, he received Lin Rongchen's secret decree.

The night before his departure, Lu Lin came to his room with food and wine.

At this time, Shen Bi was sitting on the steps of the courtyard, staring at the bright silver full moon in a daze.

Lu Lin arranged the food and wine one by one, and passed the chopsticks to Shen Bi's hand, "General, what are you thinking?"

Shen Bi took it, "Nothing."

Lu Lin sighed regretfully, "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight, but unfortunately, I shouldn't be the one here."

Shen Bi shook her hair, the long hairband fluttering under the moonlight. "Who is that supposed to be?"

"General Ji!"

Shen Bi poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and said with a sad tone, "I don't know if I will have a chance to see him again."

"There will be! General Ji is brave and good at fighting, the old thief Fu Zhuo is not his opponent, and Hanguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it will be no problem if you go, General."

"A sword has no eyes." Shen Bi only said four words, and went to drink with all her heart.

Lu Lin took out a letter and pushed it in front of him, "General, this was sent by General Ji just now."

"Why didn't you take it out sooner!" Shen Bi opened the envelope as if he had found a treasure——

Qi said without clothes?Go with the child.Master Wang Yuxing, repair my spear.Have hatred with the son!

……

The letter reads "The Book of Songs · Qin Feng · Wuyi".

After reading it, Shen Bi carefully folded the letter and put it in his chest.

Ji Yan, I will live, and you will live too.

At dawn on the second day, Shen Bi went straight to Hanguan with [-] sailors.

Fortunately, Hanguan was guarded by Lin Rongchen. Although he was forced to defend the city and wait for reinforcements, his morale was still high.When Shen Bi arrived at Hanguan, the Northern Zhou Dynasty had already sieged the city for seven days. Compared with the soldiers who traveled overnight, the Northern Zhou Dynasty's troops were already exhausted.Shen Bi took a short rest before leading an army of [-] to attack the enemy.

In less than half a day, eight thousand enemies were killed, and the 20 men and horses in the Northern Zhou Dynasty were beaten and fled.Of course, there is also the credit of the generals who defended the city.

Shen Bi led his men to chase for more than 50 li before withdrawing his troops and returning to the city contentedly.It's a pity that when the two armies were fighting, Lin Rongchen was hit by an arrow and fell into a coma.

With Shen Bi's reinforcements, Northern Zhou suffered a great loss again, and for a while did not dare to attack the city rashly, and Hanguan was at peace.

While Lin Rongchen was in a coma, they received a battle report from the western region. Although Ji Beicheng had summoned 10 King Qin soldiers, the battle between the two sides fell into a stalemate, and the fight was inseparable.This is not a good thing for the people in the western region. The longer the war lasts, the greater the losses they will suffer.Ji Beicheng wanted to make a quick decision, so he was inevitably a little impetuous, and his cooperation with He Lianjin was not so seamless, so far, they have not found a way to draw salary from the bottom of the pot.

After reading the memorial, General Luo Yu asked Shen Bi, "General Shen, how do you think this battle should be fought?"

"Fu Zhuo has 22 people, and the combined strength of Ji Beicheng and He Lianjin is less than 15. In addition, they are in the western region. The plague is raging at this moment, and the right time, place, and people will not take advantage of it. If you can't make a quick decision, you will lose. Undoubtedly." Shen Bi said, "The two armies are fighting, and there are two commanders, does General Luo Yu think this is reasonable?"

Luo Yu nodded, "What General Shen said is true."

Shen Bi frowned and thought for a long time, then got up and said, "General Luo, I plan to go to the western region. If the emperor wakes up, please tell him."

Luo Yu refused, "How could General Shen leave without the emperor's order?"

Shen Bi said: "Don't say that the emperor is injured and unconscious at the moment, even if he is awake, this general will still go. Don't worry, the Northern Zhou Dynasty will not make a comeback in a short time. You just need to defend the city for me. I will bring a team of elite soldiers Just go ahead!"

After Shen Bi said this, Luo Yu could only agree.

On the battlefield, timing is everything.It only took two days for Shen Bi to travel from Hanguan to the western region.

As soon as he arrived in the army, he was surrounded by people.

The other party scolded: "Who is here? How dare you trespass into the barracks!"

Shen Bi jumped off his horse and asked, "Where's your general? Tell him to come see me!"

Perhaps it was Shen Bi's aura that overwhelmed the other party, and he showed a timid look on his face, "Wait here for a while, and I will report back to the general!"

Not long after, He Lianjin came out of the tent, saw Shen Bi, and was taken aback, "Hey! Who am I? It turned out to be General Shen! It's been a long time!"

Shen Bi said, "Where's Ji Beicheng?"

He Lianjin gave a thumbs up and pointed to the military tent on the left.

Shen Bi handed over the cavalry brought to He Lianjin to settle down, and then entered the tent.

Ji Beicheng was pondering over the topographical map on the wall, when he heard someone coming in, he thought it was He Lianjin, "General Helian, if necessary, capturing the thief first and capturing the king will have unexpected results, not to mention such rebels, As long as there are no rebels, it will naturally be a mess."

"I think so too." Shen Bi replied behind him.
