Bright moon out of Tianshan

Xiao Jian stretched out his hand to press the wound, and in anger, he chased after him recklessly. The soldiers of Zhao State retreated slowly, resisting the attack of the Eastern Qi soldiers all the way, obstructing his actions, and seeing the man in black gradually go away. Go, disappeared in the rebellious army.He snorted bitterly, but in the end he was helpless.

Zhao Guo's soldiers and horses retreated across the Yellow River, and Yang Baozhen did not dare to let go of them to chase after them. Now the number of soldiers and horses in the Eastern Qi Dynasty is not much larger than that of Zhao Guo, but it is just a bluff. , avoid the whole of the United States, and the poor will not chase after them. It is imperative to organize the navy to strengthen the guards along the Yellow River."

Seeing that Gao Huai nodded in agreement, he ordered some soldiers to garrison along the Yellow River, and the rest rang the gong to withdraw.Gao Huai ordered: "Although it is a small victory, the soldiers are brave, but they must be rewarded. Tonight I will entertain all the generals, and it will be in the tent of the Chinese army. The soldiers also need to be rewarded. Tomorrow, Luoyang will be slightly rectified. It also needs to be rectified and drilled before continuing to advance north." Yang Baozhen agreed to stay, and when he passed the order, there was a burst of jubilation.

Everyone retreated and returned to the camp in the north of Luoyang City. Xiao Jian brought his [-] light cavalry back in despair. .”

Xiao Jian failed to kill Baili Rong, so he came to Gao Huai full of sorrow, and said, "Third Highness, I was careless this time, next time I will... definitely not miss again."

Gao Huai glanced at the injury on his arm, slowly lowered his face, and said, "Come with me!" He led him into the Chinese army tent, dismissed the rest of the people, and asked, "Is your injury not a problem? "

Xiao Jian shook his head, Gao Huai continued, "It's not a big deal whether you can kill Baili Rong or not. But you are so courageous. On the battlefield, you even flirted with Zhao Yuancai! What do you look like?"

Xiao Jian raised his head suddenly, and said in shock: "Third Highness, I... I don't have it! Is that really Zhao Yuancai? How can I flirt with him? You can't slander me like this!"

Gao Huai's brows and eyes were full of anger, and he said coldly: "As Zhao Yuancai's minister, Bailirong, with thousands of troops and horses, under the watchful eyes of everyone, who would dare to hold him in his arms? Except Zhao Yuancai himself! Xiao Jian, you Just pretend to be confused! Just pretend!"

Xiao Jian was stunned for a moment, tilted his head in thought, recalled every move of the man in black, and indeed he was full of kingly spirit in every gesture. It seems that Gao Huai's deduction was correct, remembering Zhao Yuancai's words before leaving, but suddenly couldn't help it He smiled and said: "Oh, it turns out that he is indeed the monarch of Zhao, what a bastard!"

Seeing his bright and comfortable smile, Gao Huai seemed to be pricked by a needle, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and said, "Xiao Jian, do you look like a general who went to war! The battlefield is just for fun. Son? You are so happy to let go of the enemy's monarch for nothing. You really...look at you, and you still laugh! Are you so frivolous and vulgar?"

Xiao Jian saw that his face was ugly, and his scolding was ugly, and his face turned red.Although Gao Huai's treatment of others is not considered a warm breeze, he can generally get by, but he is so harsh on himself.The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, then his face darkened, and he said: "Third Highness, I am not his opponent, even if I wanted to capture him, I would be powerless. The Third Highness is so angry, I am afraid that it is not because I dislike me for not killing Baili Rong , but I hate that I don't know how to guess and measure your thoughts. I didn't snatch Baili Rong back for you, did I? If the Third Highness feels regretful, I will take someone to continue snatching people with an order. If you can't get it back, Just let me die in the hands of Zhao Yuancai!"

Gao Huai said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!" Suddenly he grabbed Xiao Jian's face, Xiao Jian was startled, thinking that he was going to hit someone, he quickly covered his face and took a step back.Gao Huai hadn't raised his hands yet, but when he saw his panicked actions, he took a deep breath, barely suppressed his anger, and said slowly after a long while: "Xiao Jian, you don't have to attend tonight's celebration banquet, Facing the wall and thinking about the past."

Xiao Jian fought with him for such a long time, went through untold hardships and was injured, finally won a small victory, but he didn't have his own share in the celebration banquet, he felt very wronged for a while, and his anger rushed He raised his head, and shouted unbearably: "If you don't go, you won't go! I don't care about it, young master!" Turning around, he went out of the account and left angrily.

The celebration banquet was very lively. Except for the soldiers on duty, the rest of the soldiers were rewarded with two catties of wine and one piece of meat.All the generals, big and small, gathered in the tent of the Chinese army, set up a banquet, and toasted Gao Huai in turn. The voice of the command rings together.But Yang Baozhen asked at this moment: "Your Highness, where did you drive Xiao Jian?"

Gao Huai said, "Don't worry about him."

Yang Baozhen said: "Your Highness, how can you keep everything perfect on the battlefield? Xiao Jian's contribution to breaking the city and ambush is indispensable. Be more lenient to him."

Even though Gao Huai said so, amidst the hustle and bustle, he felt a faint regret in his heart.Thinking of Xiao Jian's fun and excitement, it was so lively here, but he walked alone to the wall, and indeed he felt a little wronged.Then he called Ding Wuxia out of the tent, and ordered: "Go and call your wife and brother to the banquet, just say forget it today, and face the wall tomorrow."

Ding Wuxia faltered, and said after a while: "Your Highness, he...he probably doesn't want to come."

Gao Huai said: "He won't come if he doesn't want to? Go and call him!"

Ding Wuxia continued to hesitate: "He didn't face the wall in the tent, he went to face the wall elsewhere."

Gao Huai frowned, and said, "Elsewhere? Fianbi needs to change to another place? Where did he go? Tell me, let me invite General Xiao personally."

Ding Wuxia panicked, and said with an apologetic smile: "No, actually His Highness really doesn't care about him. On behalf of my brother-in-law, I thanked the Third Highness for his great kindness."

Gao Huai squinted at him coldly, and said: "Ding Wuxia, you are so courageous, you dare to let your wife and brother run around, and if you talk too much, I will take you and him together to question the crime! I have serious matters to discuss with him. Discuss, tell me where he is!"

Ding Wuxia was startled by him, so he could only say: "Feng... Fenghuang Terrace, he named it himself, but it is actually a big rock in the middle of Luoshui River. It is three miles up the river from Luoshui Shuimen in the west of Luoyang City, and you will arrive there. He...he is there...that..." Gao Huai sneered, and said, "Isn't this the first time I went there? Did you go into the water again? Let General Yang know, it's still twenty army sticks!"

The Luohe River in the night, the river flows eastward quietly, there are faint fishing fires, and the cool night wind blows gently, bringing a scent of fragrant leaves.Gao Huai walked up the river for three miles, looked around, and saw the Phoenix Terrace they were talking about.

Gao Huai asked the fishermen on the shore for a small boat and rowed over to the rock. The boulder was ten feet long and six feet wide. Ruyin, I don’t know who planted a few hibiscus flowers on it, but they are blooming lushly, emitting a faint fragrance in the dark night.

Seeing Xiao Jian sitting on the boulder with his back to him, he seemed to have just climbed up from the water, his hair was still dripping, and he was wearing a black robe casually, like Lin Zaichun's, very wide, Fluttering in the wind.He seemed to be holding a big wine jar in his hand, but he drank to the moon, which was very comfortable, and obviously had nothing to do with facing the wall and thinking about the past.

He stood on the edge of the boulder, silently looking at Xiao Jian.Xiao Jian faintly felt something was wrong with the natural vigilance of martial arts practitioners. Looking back, he said, "Xiao Jian, are you facing the wall?"

Xiao Jian became flustered, and hurriedly said: "No...Third...Third Highness, I am facing the wall here, it is cool here, it is easy to calm down, and it is of great benefit to reflect on one's actions."

He looked at Gao Huai's face, but he couldn't see it clearly in the moonlight. He judged the situation and began to beg for mercy: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, and I won't dare in the future." Struggling to get up, Gao Huai said: " No need, just sit down. Why is this stone called Phoenix Terrace?"

Hearing his kind tone, Xiao Jian was relieved, and he didn't dare to make trouble with him. He apologized and said with a smile: "I made up the name randomly. Third Highness, don't you think this big stone statue is like a phoenix flying in the river? And this The river water hits and beats the cave under the stone. Does the sound sound like someone playing a musical instrument? So I named this stone, Fenghuang Terrace. Sitting here is like returning to the Phoenix Terrace in Jinling. I Just now I also learned from Taibai Immortal and wrote poems to commemorate it."

Gao Huai stood on the edge of the boulder with his hands behind his back: "Still writing poems? It's very comfortable. Let me listen to the reading?"

Xiao Jian slowly rolled his eyes, but he was already half-drunk and a little confused. He thought for a long time before he read: "In the cold mountains and clouds outside the river, the fish swimming in the river return by the tide. The boats on the river cross the river, and the yellow leaves fly in the autumn forest by the river. The phoenix soars above the stream, and the moon and flowers turn back. If I am sentimental while I am young, I will not wait for my gray head to do nothing. Nian Jun is as graceful as the bright moon, and I hope that I will be with you for thousands of years." He slowly turned his head and looked at Gao Huai, greatly His eyes were shining brightly, and the brilliance flowed, and he suddenly changed his voice and shouted: "Third Brother, when you were hanging out in the rivers and lakes, your name was Yan Huaiyue, right? I used the word "month" between the lines in this poem. Your name is out." He paused, then smiled and said, "This poem is not finished yet, and you interrupted it. But I think this is enough, what do you think?"

Gao Huai stretched out his hand and put his sleeve against his forehead, and the gentle wind from the river disturbed the hair on his forehead.He paused for a moment, then said: "Xiao Jian, I'm here to tell you something. In a few days, we will organize our troops to cross the Yellow River. Don't follow me. Stay in Luoyang and take charge of organizing Deliver food."

Xiao Jian was stunned, and his breathing gradually became difficult. After a while, he got up and said: "Why? Third... Third Highness, I will not dare in the future. I must listen to you. Don't throw me in Luoyang. If I want to go on the battlefield, I really dare not in the future!"

Gao Huai said: "It's not because you are disobedient. I promised your elder brother that I will take you back home. You have been injured, and the next battle will become more and more difficult. I am afraid that if you make a mistake, I will not The law and the lobby master will explain."

Xiao Jian turned his head to look at the river in the night, and said, "Third Highness, I insisted on participating in the military test and joining the army. Even if I died in the battle, I chose it myself. My elder brother will never say anything about you. Therefore, That's not your reason." He paused, and said, "Are you disliking me? After disliking me as a second minister, disliking my grandfather and my father for opening the gate of Jinling, which caused Prime Minister Sun's family to be ruined. You You have always had a grudge against me, right? But look at my elder brother's face, so please bear with me. In fact, I know everything. I found someone to find out, including your wandering in the rivers and lakes for ten years. "
