The Peach Blossoms of the Lone Star of Tiansha

Summer noon is the hottest time of the day.It was Liancheng's turn to be on duty today, but he thought it was too hot, so he hid early in the shade of the loquat tree in the backyard to take a lunch break in the cool.

He didn't sleep well, and when he woke up, he saw Nangong Huang sitting beside him at some point, holding a book and reading vaguely.Seeing that he was awake, he looked over lightly.

"When did His Highness come here?"

"Come here for a while. Mo Chu is very angry. You are not here, and he is covering you again."

"Tsk tsk tsk, isn't he willing to do this? I don't want to steal his limelight, he should thank me."

Liancheng got up while talking, patted the weeds behind him, and suddenly saw Nangong Huang stretch out his hand, and naturally picked off the dead leaves on his head.He also spoke, with a very light tone:

"Why don't you count your monthly report to Mo Chu? After all, he did everything for you."

"That won't work!" Liancheng refused straight away, plausibly saying:

"I still have to pay my father's food expenses. Without this monthly bill, I'll go drink Northwest Wind?"

After all, he looked at the sky.Seeing that the sun had already set in the west, he immediately said happily:

"It's time, and my class is over. Let's go first, Your Highness."

Nangong Huang looked at his back helplessly, sighed, but smiled faintly.

Liancheng returned to Lianfu, but hadn't had time to drink tea.Sixi handed him a letter.

It was sent by Yin Moxun from Hulao Pass. In the past few years, the letters have been intermittent.

At first it was Liancheng who wrote the letter to Mo Xun, but Luo Li babbled a lot to no avail, and only lightly mentioned at the end: the old friend Chu Ci is coming soon, if you have time to spare, you can take care of him.

Not long after, Mo Xun's letter came back.The whole letter didn't say anything else, only the recent situation of Chuci was written in detail.Then, every two or three months, there would always be a letter sent, which might contain a few words or a long essay, but it was all about Chuci.

Sometimes Liancheng really admires Mo Xun, as expected of his close friend who knows him best.Even if he didn't say anything, Mo Xun could detect his hesitation and hesitant to speak the fastest, and thoughtfully give the most appropriate arrangement.

Chu Ci has been very prestigious in recent years.I thought that without the aura of a prince, he would definitely be embarrassed if he went to a place where the battle was tight like Hulao Pass.

But in Mo Xun's description, this little overlord still maintains his demeanor as always no matter where he goes.

Although it was true that many provocative generals and soldiers made trouble for him, they were beaten black and blue by him without exception.A pair of fists hit all over the barracks.

The notoriety has spread far and wide, and it has reached the point where people are frightened.

However, he went to the battlefield and was extremely willing to work hard. After fighting big and small, he made a lot of military exploits.The soldiers under his command also enjoyed a lot of sweetness, not to mention that he protected his weaknesses tightly, as long as he went to the battlefield, he had to bring back as many people as he took out.

Afterwards, rewards for meritorious deeds must not be short of his share of soldiers, otherwise, whether you are a marshal or a general, they will all dance with you.So in just a few years, he was very popular, and he raised a loyal army of soldiers.

What really made him famous in the first battle was the Battle of Qingping. The people he led were responsible for attacking from the left, but they didn't expect to fall into the trap of the enemy Yuezhi Kingdom.

The main forces of the Yuezhi Kingdom are all in ambush here, waiting for him to come to their door.It is said that it was because he heard that he was the youngest son of the current emperor and wanted to capture him to negotiate terms.

After he was deeply surrounded, General Song, the chief general, immediately organized a rescue.After all, the emperor's own son can't really be folded here, but this rescue came back without success.

It is said that because the enemy army invited many demons and ghosts to help out, they couldn't even get close to the encirclement.

Just when everyone was at a loss and was in a hurry, General Yueshi sent someone to pass on a message, threatening to cede all the six cities north of Hulao Pass to them if he wanted to save His Highness the Sixth Highness.

Of course, General Song didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent a fast horse back to Beijing to report the matter.

But the emperor's reaction was very flat. He only said that there must be no compromise on the important matters of the family and the country, and that he should do his best in other matters.

As soon as the decree arrived, General Song's heart sank.

It is said that tiger poison does not eat its offspring, but the royal family relationship is really too cold.

The emperor didn't want to take care of his own son, but General Song couldn't bear to bury a fierce general in vain.So I discussed with Yin Moxun and organized several offensive support, but each time they returned without success.

The team of 3000 people led by Chu Ci was trapped for a whole month. Seeing that they were unwilling to compromise, the Yuezhi Kingdom threatened to kill the Sixth Highness and use his head as a sacrifice to the flag!

Just when everyone thought that Chu Ci had no way out this time, he broke through with only 3000 people.

Not only broke through, but also directly picked the enemy general.With a mere 3000 people, they defeated 7 lions of the Yuezhi Kingdom, ambushed and recruited nearly [-] people, and then conquered seven cities in one breath. Not only did they regain the territory that had been lost for nearly ten years, they even robbed the important strategic points of the Yuezhi Kingdom. ground, cut off the enemy's supplies.

This battle made him famous and powerful all over the world.

None of the soldiers who had personally experienced this battle dared to mention this unforgettable experience again. Those iron-blooded men who were used to seeing life and death on the battlefield would always keep silent when they talked about it. Seeing Chuci was more like a mouse seeing a cat. As creepy.

No one knows exactly what happened, but since then, Chuci has gained another name—Ghost Face Evil General!

Ghost Face, General Chu Ci, is a name that almost makes everyone inside and outside the Hulaoguan terrified.

When Liancheng saw his name on Mo Xunxin, he immediately smiled.

Compared with the little overlord in the capital, Ghost Face Shajiang is really too majestic.

Just by the name, he knew that he was not easy to mess with, but the Chu Ci in the letter seemed to make him more and more unfamiliar.

The person in his memory still seemed to be the man who was irritable and irritable after he teased him a few words, and he tore off his red underwear.

It is too far away from the majestic general in the letter.

Later, the reputation of Chuci grew bigger and bigger, and the ghost-faced general was famous and invincible.

Perhaps even His Majesty the Emperor himself never imagined that the son of the little overlord who used to beat up the princes of the family and make troubles in the capital would be so good at fighting!

Piles of rewards were gradually passed on. After all, he is his own son, and he is so upbeat, so of course he should reward him.

But Chu Ci didn't seem to be rare at all, and the rewards were received as they were, but he never asked anyone to bring back a good word to his old father in the capital.

Moreover, he repeatedly emphasized that his surname was Chu, but he was unwilling to change back to Nangong's surname.

This completely angered His Majesty the Emperor, and he hit the nails several times.Gradually, I no longer make fun of myself.

However, Chu Ci's influence in Hulao Pass is growing. Hulao Pass has always been led by General Song, a veteran of the dynasty, and Yin Moxun, who has been with him for several years, is his deputy.

Because of his repeated military exploits, Chu Ci accumulated and became a lieutenant general.But the personal soldiers he can use are twice as fast as Yin Moxun's.Just because every time he defeated the enemy generals, he collected prisoners, and these prisoners were also subdued by him.He comes and goes, but he is in control of the army, and his reputation is much higher than that of General Song.

With such a heavy army in hand, of course, his father and brothers who are far away in the capital are not at ease.

Another great victory in the battle, the emperor issued a decree to the third prince Nangong Huang, sending him to Hulao Pass to express condolences to the generals.In addition, a secret decree was added - asking him to find a way to bring his sixth brother back.

After Liancheng knew about it, he immediately felt that His Majesty must be looking for trouble. Among all the brothers, Chu Ci should be the third brother who is least liked.Even sending the First Prince there is better than sending Nangong Huang!

However, following the imperial decree, Nangong Huang could only accept the decree.In a few days, he took Liancheng, Yin Mochu and a group of guards to Hulao Pass.

Hulaoguan is located in the northwest, and the further you go, the more you go to the Gobi Desert.

Liancheng used to always hear Yin Moxun talk about the scenery of the desert, which is desolate and picturesque.He always hears only vaguely, and often jokes that Mo Xun is sad for the spring and autumn.It wasn't until I saw it with my own eyes that I understood Mo Xun's exclamations.

It was almost time for Hulao to be closed. It stands to reason that General Song should send someone to pick them up. After all, they were entrusted with the emperor's orders, and Nangong Huang had a high status.

But they traveled all the way without seeing even half a ghost.

Yin Mochu was a little dissatisfied, and he was upset and irritable from eating sand all the way, so he immediately said angrily:

"Is there no one who understands the rules in Hulao Pass? After all, we are sent by His Majesty, and we dare to be so negligent."

Lian Cheng was riding on the horse, and he yawned casually when he heard the words, without even looking at him:

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a grand style. When I heard this, I thought it was you who was appointed by His Majesty."

"Lian Ziyu, you!"

"What am I? Who do you think you are? The border war is tense, and the generals are busy fighting against the enemy. How can there be time to deal with you!?"

Yin Mochu blushed with anger at being robbed by him, and after a while he gritted his teeth and said bitterly:

"It's okay to neglect me, but His Highness was hand-picked by His Majesty, representing the face of the emperor. They dare to neglect me like this, but they didn't take His Majesty seriously!"

"Mo Chu—" Nangong Huang interrupted him lightly:

"Ziyu is right. The generals are busy defending their homes and the country, and we were the same in the past."

"That's right. Second Young Master Yin's skill in sowing discord is really getting longer and longer."

"Ziyu, don't say a few words."

Each played [-] boards to appease the two, but Yin Mochu held his breath in his heart, still unwilling:

"Where the war is tight, it is obvious that we came here because of the great victory in the war. The group of barbarians in the Yuezhi Kingdom have all been driven away, so how come the war is tight."

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, dozens of figures appeared from nowhere on the deserted desert.All of them are fair-skinned and dark-eyed, and they are soldiers of the Yuezhi Kingdom.

Liancheng really wanted to slap Yin Mochu to death, and said in a hateful voice:

"Yin Mochu, where did you open your crow's mouth!?"
