The happy life of the devil and the devil

With the whistle, the messenger's eyes lit up, but he shook his head again when asked by Ling Yucheng.Ling Yucheng waited patiently for him for a long time before hearing him recall hesitantly:

"Like, but not...much louder than that."

"how?"

"At that time, the mountains and rocks were falling down, and the people in the camp were screaming and neighing. The noise was so loud that even the little man could hear the voice clearly..."

"Changed my voice, couldn't you hear clearly at that time?"

"This..." The messenger stammered again, peeking at Ling Yucheng's face before speaking the truth hesitatingly: "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, there were 800 people shouting at the sound just now, so they suppressed it." .”

After he finished speaking, he quickly buried his head deeply, crouched his neck and waited for Ling Yucheng to get angry.Unexpectedly, after waiting and waiting, he heard the sound of military boots stamping on the ground for a few steps, and then the voice that had been asking him just now sounded again, but it was directed at a person who was not expected by everyone present:

"Princess, don't be sad. I think General Habayashi may not be in danger."

Princess Qinghe's body trembled, and she suddenly raised her head.However, tears were blurred in his eyes, and he couldn't even see Ling Yucheng's expression clearly, but Kang Wang, who had been supporting his sister, asked urgently, "What? My brother-in-law is still alive?"

"It's just possible." Ling Yucheng nodded slightly to meet his gaze, calmly, with a sense of certainty, "The first time I saw His Majesty, there were cavalry passing by five miles away, and His Majesty immediately went to see him." Waking up from sleep. Such a large-scale landslide, even if His Majesty was drunk that night, it is impossible to be unaware of it, and let it be buried by earth and rocks. Therefore, the strange noise that the messenger heard, I guess, is probably because His Majesty heard that there was danger. , Chang Xiao warned the whole army—”

"Then why didn't Brother Huang simply call out that the mountain is about to collapse and tell everyone to run quickly?"

The one who interrupted hurriedly was His Highness Duke Huai who broke away from his two elder brothers and rushed forward.In contrast, although King Kang was also curious, he didn't dare to interrupt Ling Yucheng's analysis. He just grabbed the girl's arm and stared at him without blinking.

"Because it's useless." Ling Yucheng glanced at Duke Huai, thought for a while, and swallowed the detailed explanation. "It's dark in the middle of the night, even if you shout, the whole army will trample on each other in a panic, and there will only be more dead, not less--but this long howl, ordinary soldiers may not know what's going on, the commander of the army, for example General Jinwu and General Habayashi will definitely come out to see."

Duke Huai's expression was still a little disbelieving, but looking around, he saw a few important officials who were former generals, Zuozhu Guozong, stroking his white beard and nodding his head slightly. That's it" expression.Most of the other generals also looked in agreement, knowing that what Ling Yucheng said was probably the truth, they lowered their heads, stepped back, and stopped asking questions.

Seeing him stop, Ling Yucheng took a breath, and said in a low voice, "No matter how high your majesty's martial arts are, you can't save the entire army. However, General Jinwu and General Yubayashi, as long as your majesty has a little spare power, he will not fail to save you. So Yubayashi The general may be wounded, but most likely he will not die—”

"Hey, sister! Don't fall, old girl! Hey girl!"

Kang Wang yelled, and desperately dragged the limp Princess Qinghe up.Before he could stand up straight, Princess Qinghe suddenly opened her eyes, gritted her teeth and threw off her elder brother who was supporting her, stood up stubbornly, and bowed to Ling Yucheng:

"Thank you, my lord. I want to send someone to find my father and my lord, but I don't know my lord... my lord..."

She was still on the verge of falling just now, but after this ceremony, her body is upright and her ring is silent, not even the stamens of the beaded flowers on her temples are shaking.Ling Yucheng secretly praised his good manners and demeanor, took a step back, and slightly raised his hand in return:

"Princess, you don't need to be like this. Your Majesty is in danger, and it is in the deep mountains at the junction of Jin and Yong. Most of the families of Habayashi's children are in Jin, and they are going to rescue His Majesty. Habayashi Guard is about to make a big move-I don't know if General Habayashi has ever told the princess. , Habayashi Weizhong, who are the mainstays?"

"Don't worry, my lord. Mr. Lang usually said that several uncles in the clan can be relied on, and the lieutenants of Habayashi Wei are also familiar with it. They will definitely not miss the job. If you are worried that there will be no one to sit in the town, there are still a few elders in the Yun family. , even if this princess goes in person, she can hold her ground!"

If you want to take you, a delicate girl, to climb mountains and move rocks, His Majesty will have to beat me when he comes back—— before Ling Yucheng could say anything to stop her, Kang Wang jumped up beside him: "Sister! How can you survive the journey of thousands of miles? Stay! I'll go! Anyway, I'm your brother too!"

"Nonsense! My sister-in-law is about to give birth, how can you walk away at this moment! I'll go!"

"The wife is more important than the father! What's more, you should go for my sister! You are a sister, don't fight with me as a brother—"

The two brothers and sisters exchanged one sentence with another, and almost started arguing on the spot. Ling Yucheng just wanted to put his hand on his forehead—or give them both a good blow to make them all shut up.Is now the time to debate these?On the other hand, the prince held his breath and listened for a while, and finally saw the gap, so he quickly stepped in:

"Shut up! It's all about mobilizing Habayashi Wei, and there is no need for the emperor to go there in person, and you, the fourth child, calm down for me too! Stay well in the capital!"

One sentence silenced the two of them, the prince thought for a while, turned to Ling Yucheng, frowned and added:

"The mountains between Jin and Yong are hundreds of miles long, and the Habayashi Guard alone may not be enough. Should we send Xiongwuwei and Shenwuwei to search the mountains together from all directions?"

When he spoke, he was still a little apprehensive, but when Ling Yucheng heard the words, he just smiled slightly.The black eyes rolled up and down, and with just one glance, the prince felt a chill all over his body, as if his internal organs had been seen through.However, this feeling was only for a moment, Ling Yucheng then nodded lightly, and only responded with one word:

"it is good."

Soldiers are expensive and fast.Ling Yucheng and the crown prince quickly exchanged a few words of opinion, and then picked up their pens separately to draft the imperial order.After finishing writing in a short time, he passed around in the hands of Prince Edward, King Kang, Princess Qinghe, Zong Zheng, and Zuo Zhuguo, and then returned to the case. Ling Yucheng stamped the two gold seals of "Emperor's Treasure" and "Queen's Treasure" in turn. Immediately, he took off the brocade pouch that was worn on his body, stroked the "Longevity" jade seal with great care, and sealed it upright.

The decree was in triplicate, and one copy was handed over to Feige, and immediately sent to the settlements of the children of Habayashi, Shenwuwei, and Xiongwuwei, and asked them to send people to search the mountain immediately—as for this copy, how many copies should be copied, That's another topic.In fact, Yuan Shao also brought carrier pigeons with him when he traveled, reporting safety to the capital every day, and only the memorial documents were delivered by post horses.If the pigeon coop and the sergeant raising the pigeons hadn't been buried under the mudslide, the news wouldn't have been cut off for three days.

The second copy was sent out from Ling Yucheng together with the soldier talisman left by Yuan Shao in the dormitory, and handed over to Princess Qinghe and Xiongwu General Yi Lishu, and the copy of Shenwuwei was delivered by express horse at the post station.The last copy is hidden deep in the palace dedicated to the collection of important edicts. Unless someone questioned the first two copies as false edicts, it would never be opened again.

In fact, it is impossible for these decrees that have been drafted and completed in full view to be questioned one day—there are no. 30 people in Zhaoxin Hall!

Although there are a large number of people, there are only a dozen people who are qualified to participate in the discussion, and the final decision is just a touch between three or five people.Lord Zongzheng, Prince Huai, Qin, Zhou and other princes who are not in charge of soldiers, were dragged here, in fact, they were just spectators, and each of them went home with a bottle of soy sauce.

Even so, Yuan Shao still kindly reminded Ling Yucheng before leaving: "It's fine if you don't encounter a major event, but if you do encounter a major event, it's better to find them all. These people may not be enough to succeed, and there is definitely more than enough to fail. One person doubts In a word, just arguing with them is enough for you!"

Once the edict is issued, the day's discussion will come to an end.Ling Yucheng sent the crown prince and all the kings and important officials away, and went back to the study room at the west end of Zhaoxin Hall alone. Facing the memorial that was full of cases waiting for his approval, he couldn't read a single word.After walking around twice, he managed to calm down and sat down, brushed the paper and rubbed the ink, and as usual, began to draft the memorial to be presented to Yuan Shao that day.

"...After hearing the news, I immediately invite the prince, Zongzheng, King Kang, Princess Qinghe, Zuozhu Kingdom...etc. to discuss matters....Princess Qinghe asks for orders, and wants to go and lead the children of Habayashi Guards to search the mountains and rescue people...Kang Wang said ...the prince said..."

He didn't embellish the scene at all, relying on his excellent memory, he recorded every word of everyone present.After finishing writing a booklet, spread the ink on the desk to dry, Ling Yucheng sighed suddenly as he looked at the sharp ink color on the white paper.

Half of Princess Qinghe's tears were for her husband and son-in-law, that's all, after all, she was a married woman; King Kang was jumping up and down, although he was worried about his father, but he was not so worried that he wished he could replace him with his own body. Have the spirit to quarrel with the princess; most of the courtiers think about their own glory and wealth, even Zongzheng, most of the attention is about the imperial line, don't move aside...

As for the prince...the prince...

Hey!It's normal to be a little bit cautious.Otherwise, why did he agree lightly?After all, it won't get in the way of business, so why not give him a face.

But, but...

Your Majesty... Your Majesty...

How many people are there, wholeheartedly, just paying attention to your whereabouts alone, worrying about your life and death?

Close your eyes and think back over and over again, the fight between rabbits and falcons when we first met, he was held by the sword to leave the ancient temple, and he was embraced by the crowd and he jumped out - with your majesty's martial arts, with a person who can So light and swift, how about two people?With His Majesty's heart, he probably wouldn't care about ordinary soldiers, but General Jinwu and General Habayashi, he will definitely try his best to help...

The rocks are rushing like rain and mud, and the soldiers in the battalion are terrified and screaming, trampling on each other. Can you avoid it? Can you avoid it?

If you are safe and sound, why did you not show yourself before dawn?Injured, trapped, or someone nearby who is seriously injured and cannot move?

Or the scope of the landslide is too large, and when you run away in a panic, you will gradually drift away and lose your way in the deep mountains?

Thinking about it, he suddenly shivered, and instinctively got up and wrapped a cloak around his body.The copper buckle of the cloak pinched his knuckles, causing a faint but distinct pain, and Ling Yucheng stared at the flowing cloud pattern embroidered on the corner of the clothes for a moment:

Was the main hall of this imperial palace with only one person left unknowingly already so cold?

When Ling Yucheng was in a daze, Princess Qinghe's mansion was flying around.As soon as the two brothers and sisters came out, Kang Wang squeezed into the princess's chariot with a stern face, and called it to go to his sister's house for dinner-Princess Qinghe couldn't go away even if she wanted to.All the way to the Princess Mansion, as soon as the screen retreated to the left and right, Kang Wang couldn't wait to jump up:

"I said, sister, why don't you let me go today? Habayashi Wei, I usually go in and out like my own house, you don't know-this kind of hard work is tiring, with a man like me, I can still do it." Can you go?"

"Are you going?" Princess Qinghe sneered, looking up and down at her brother, who is usually unreliable but sometimes surprisingly reliable—of course, the so-called reliability is nothing more than changing from one point to five points at ordinary times. That's all. "Didn't you see that our prince didn't want you to go?"

It's all right if she doesn't say it's broken, but when she said it, Kang Wang shivered coldly, and immediately sat down on the chair.Princess Qinghe was still angry, Xian Xianyu pointed at him, and cursed:

"It's okay to argue at the beginning. It seems that being friendly to my sister is not a bad thing. Later, the crown prince spoke up. Are you still stubborn? If I hadn't dragged you, would you still have to quarrel with the crown prince? Didn't you see that the queen did not Are you against the prince?"

"Of course he doesn't think so, that's the crown prince—in case something happens to my father..."

The two fell silent suddenly.After a long time, Princess Qinghe said in a low voice:

"In case there is something wrong with the father, you rush over again, and a strange will will come out at that time, wouldn't the cooked duck from the crown prince fly away?"

"Impossible? With my father's martial arts, I really don't think it's possible for something to happen... Can the prince really think of me like that?"

"Otherwise, what do you think? My soul is gone, I just want to go to the place where the accident happened quickly, and see if the father and the prince are okay... Really worthy of our big brother, the prince entrusted by the father, he still Can you think about these things!"

"Alas..." Kang Wang, who was still alive and well just now, suddenly became depressed.Princess Qinghe squinted at him, only thinking that this elder brother—in fact, if King Kang hadn’t been born prematurely, she should have been born as a sister—if he had become the Persian cat under her feet, his ears and tail would have drooped by now.I couldn't bear it for a while, and wanted to comfort me, but I heard Kang Wang muttering to himself:

"It's better to let Xiao Shi take the position! Anyway, life will be easier!"

"You—" Princess Qinghe really didn't know what to say.I endured it, but in the end I still couldn't hold it back, I picked up a cushion and smashed it over:

"You think beautifully! You are willing, but others are not willing!"

The author has something to say: I’m sorry, I misremembered when I wrote it. Princess Qinghe is Kang Wang’s sister, not her elder sister.

(Actually, in terms of how the two act, the princess is more like a sister)
