Peerless buns

Chapter 39

More than half a month has passed since the battle in the imperial mausoleum, and Jiangyun City has shaken off the gloom, gradually returning to its former prosperity.Hua Xiqi also ascended the throne the next day at the age of 23, and later changed her reign to Yinwu, and her mother Zhang Guifei was promoted to empress dowager.Then he married Zhao Man'er, the daughter of Taiwei Zhao Qian, and canonized her as queen.

At this time, the sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone into an inconspicuous small courtyard.Hua Xichen was wearing an ordinary black shirt, layers of white gauze wrapped around her chest could be faintly seen through the skirt, and she was limping towards the door with a wooden stick in her hand, and then Leaning weakly against the door, his dark eyes were calm and deep, just staring blankly into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking about, and after a long time, he heard a shallow sigh from him.

After a month of recuperation, the injury has healed a lot, and occasionally he can get out of bed and walk around. It would take at least half a year to recover.Although half a year is not a long time, many things must be settled by then, and it will be extremely hard to fight for it after that time, so we must prepare to rush back to Fengshan as soon as possible to meet Xie Xiangsheng and the others.It's just that the establishment of Fengmen at the beginning and years of forbearance were all for Hua Mofei.But now that Mo Fei is gone, what's the point of what he did before?What's the point of fighting again?He had never imagined this world, even if he was allowed to rule the world, the taste would definitely be uncomfortable.

However, if Hua Xiqi does not die, how can this enmity and hatred be healed!

Hua Xichen frowned, when did he, who has always been decisive in dealing with things, become so indecisive and hesitant.

It's just that Fu Tongxi's whereabouts are unknown now, so how can he leave with peace of mind.As long as he thought that Fu Tongxi's life might be in danger, Hua Xichen wished to exchange his half-dead life for his safety.

Holding the medicine she just bought, Meng E stood quietly at the entrance of the small courtyard, observed for a while, and only after making sure that there was no suspicious person around, opened the door and walked in.As soon as I entered the yard, I saw the person leaning against the door, and I was shocked.

"Sect Master."

Hua Xichen nodded, turned around and leaned on a wooden stick and walked towards the table with difficulty, asking, "What's going on in the city today?"

Meng E put the medicine on the table, poured a cup of cold tea for Hua Xichen, and then replied, "This morning, Hua Xiqi has decreed that the Zhao family brothers will lead the army in the name of annihilating the rebels, and encircle Fengshan .”

Hua Xichen frowned, counting the days, it has been more than ten days since Hua Xiqi ascended the throne, and today's move is also in line with his impatient personality.

"When are you leaving?"

"Three days later."

Hua Xichen murmured, "Three days, so fast."

Meng E nodded, "Sect Master, don't worry, Xi'er and the others should be here tomorrow."

Hua Xichen lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said, "Go and stop them tomorrow, and don't let them enter the city." After a pause, he asked again, "Meng E, can you find out who was kidnapped?" Who is the son?"

"It should be from the Wen Kingdom."

For some reason, when Hua Xichen heard this answer, she was relieved and smiled slightly.Maybe because he knew that person would not hurt Fu Tongxi.In this way, he will have enough time to do other things, and after everything is settled here, he will go to pick him up in person, and he will never be separated again.

Hua Xichen suddenly remembered something, and sneered, "Where's Gong Mingxuan?"

Meng E shook her head, also very curious in her heart, how could Gong Mingxuan disappear suddenly without being seriously injured in the battle at the Imperial Tomb.

Hua Xichen raised her eyebrows, could it be that the two have turned against each other?

"After you stop Xi'er and the others outside the city tomorrow, go to Jiangyun City again and gather the remaining disciples to see how many are still available. After three days, we will also set off."

Hearing that they would leave in three days, Meng E frowned, with a worried expression on his face, and stood motionless by the side.

Hua Xichen glanced at him, and then said to him, as if saying to himself, "I tried my best to calculate, but I didn't want to get this fiasco, and I haven't got what I want so far. I lost .”

I think he established Fengmen since he was eight years old, and he has walked steadily every step of the way.Intentionally indulging Hua Xiqi, who has become more and more ambitious, unexpectedly everything is ready, and he wanted to attack both inside and outside, annihilating Hua Xiqi and Zhao Qian in Jiangyun City in one fell swoop, or driving them out of the city. After the position, send troops to crusade.But he didn't want fate to play a joke on him at this time, because of his benevolence, he was poisoned by Li Yinger's medicine and didn't even know it, causing the situation to reverse.

However, if you lose, you lose.

After finishing speaking, he smiled faintly, his smile seemed a little self-deprecating, and a little helpless.

"I've always been indifferent, I don't seek fame and wealth, and I'm not a good person. There are not many things and people that can make me care. Except for assisting Mo Fei to ascend the throne, it is Tong Xi. It's just that I have suffered from you. Over the years I have been following me around, through wind and rain all the way, but in the end I couldn’t end well. But now, fate seems to be against me, everything is not going well, and things are counterproductive.”

As soon as the words fell, he held his chest and coughed again, a stream of bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and then saw him calmly raised his slender white fingers, wiped them off gently, and continued, "Even if you have the ability, you can No match for the so-called fate."

"However, even if God's will arranges it this way, then I will fight hard to change the so-called fate. I know the worries in your heart, so don't worry too much..."

Meng E was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "From the moment the sect master rescued Meng E, Meng E's life is the sect master's."

Hua Xichen shook her head slightly, but didn't speak any more, just closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair weakly.

Meng E was taken aback for a moment, then took the medicine on the table, "Sect Master, my subordinates go to decoct the medicine first."

Hua Xichen lightly raised her hand and said lightly, "Go."

Three days later, Hua Xichen took the remaining Fengmen disciples in Jiangyun City to Fengshan day and night.

The Zhao family's [-] troops also marched out of Jiangyun City in mighty force, heading towards Fengshan.

Hurrying all the way, the journey that originally took more than ten days was shortened by half by Hua Xichen.It was already late at night when they rushed to the Fengshan military camp.

Wang Zping, who was watching the night, heard the roar of horseshoes, and mistook it for the enemy's surprise attack, so he hurriedly assembled soldiers to prepare for the battle.

In the dark night, as the figure of the person in front of the team gradually became clear, Wang Ziping, who had always claimed to be a tough guy, fell off his horse excitedly.

Wang Zping knelt down on his knees excitedly, and said loudly with a slightly choked voice, "My minister, Wang Zping, led all the soldiers in the army to welcome the third prince back to the camp."

In an instant, the soldiers knelt down and shouted in unison, "Welcome the third prince back to the camp."

Xie Xiangsheng, who was reading the military book in the tent, also rushed out after hearing the sound, stumbled towards Hua Xichen, and called softly, "Xichen?"

Everything in front of me is like a dream, and I am afraid that if I speak louder, I will wake up from it.

Hua Xichen on horseback smiled weakly at Xie Xiangsheng, "Second brother."

Xie Xiangsheng froze on the spot, and after a while he recovered, smiled and nodded, "It's good to be alive."

Hua Xichen nodded, dismounted slowly, and said a few words to the soldiers before returning to the camp with Xie Xiangsheng.

inside the tent.

Hua Xichen leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes.The continuous rush for the past few days has already made him tired and afraid, but when he arrived at the military camp, he felt at ease.

Xie Xiangsheng saw that his face was pale, and remembered that he fell off the cliff after being pierced by a sword. The pain he suffered during this process must have been beyond his imagination, so he couldn't help asking, "Xichen, are you feeling better?"

Xie Xiangsheng's first sentence was not to ask how he was saved, or how he had been there for so long, nor why he didn't come to the imperial tomb.

Now he is just a friend and a brother, simply greeting, caring, and simply wanting to talk to him.

"Well. Don't worry, just rest overnight."

Xie Xiangsheng sighed, in just two months, things have changed.

"Xiangsheng, where is Mo Fei buried?" Hua Xichen slowly opened his eyes and asked.

When it comes to Hua Mofei, the expressions of the people in the tent are much darker.

Hua Xichen glanced at Xie Xiangsheng, and said, "Mo Fei has his own destiny, we should try to protect this place instead of being sad here."

Xie Xiangsheng looked at him in astonishment, "Could that... be true?"

Hua Xichen smiled faintly, and said vaguely, "Maybe."

Xie Xiangsheng understood a little bit, and asked about his anxiety. "I heard that Hua Xiqi has sent the Zhao family brothers to attack, Xichen, did you have a good plan to defend against the enemy by coming all night?"

"Camp up tomorrow and set up camp at the back of the canyon ahead." Hua Xichen nodded.

Wang Zping was puzzled and asked, "The canyon in front of us is surrounded by mountains on both sides. It is extremely difficult to defend and difficult to attack!"

Attack, enter and exit a road, enter is Dadu, retreat is Fengshan, how to talk about attack?Guarding, relying on mountains on both sides, with no way to retreat, wouldn't it be like a turtle in a urn, how can we talk about guarding?

Hua Xichen shook his head, "If you don't defend, you won't attack. It's very difficult for them to attack us because there is only one way in and out. After their army arrives, we will go to sneak attack and burn their granary. It's like losing their lifeblood. If they retreat and withdraw to the direction of Dadu, then we will just go south in one fell swoop and slowly fight towards Jiangyun City. If we stay where we are and wait for Jiangyun City to deliver food and grass, we will definitely die. No matter what, It’s all in our favor.”

Moreover, he has another more important thing to do, so he must delay the Zhao family for half a month, so that they cannot send troops to fight during this period.

Hua Xichen snorted coldly, thinking, Hua Xiqi, the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind.It is too early to judge who will win and who will lose.

Xie Xiangsheng didn't quite agree, "If they lie in ambush on the mountains on both sides, wouldn't we be the turtles in the urn?"

"What if we are the ones ambush on the mountain???" Hua Xichen asked back.

Xie Xiangsheng understood in an instant, "We camped behind the canyon, and the road in the canyon is the only way to Fengshan. If they want to attack us, they will definitely enter the valley. We set up an ambush earlier. As soon as they enter the valley, That is certain death."

Hua Xichen nodded, she was already exhausted after talking so much, now she just wanted to close her eyes and have a good rest.

Xie Xiangsheng and the others looked at each other tacitly, and they all exited the tent.

After everyone went out, Hua Xichen slowly opened his eyes, stared at the ceiling, and murmured, "Tong Xi, Tong Xi!"

The author has something to say: Xiaosan is back, and I will go back immediately to pick up Tong Xi.
