After falsely claiming to be pregnant, the whole court came to claim it

General Pioneer called for a soldier from the Northwest Army.

The soldier was already stunned by the poisonous smoke, and the vanguard general stabbed him in the face with a dagger, and the man suddenly woke up from the pain.

"General Yu!" Seeing Yu Xingzhi being restrained, the soldier stepped forward to save him, but was kicked over by the vanguard general and stepped on the ground.

"The purpose of saving your life is for you to pass on a message to this general." The vanguard general said, "Try to find a way to tell Liu Linxi that after seven days, I will bring his good brother to wait in the valley where he defeated me for the first time." If he dares to fight me one-on-one, I will let him go no matter whether he wins or loses. If I don’t see him after seven days, he will see the dead body of this dead man, and it’s not the whole dead body.”

After saying that, the vanguard general raised his hand and knocked the soldier unconscious to prevent him from disturbing the others, and then disappeared into the night with a group of men in black and Yu Xingzhi.

Da Zhou had a truce for a long time before, firstly because the army was exhausted from long-term fighting.The number of their troops is far less than that of the banquet, and they cannot take turns to fight, so the pressure brought by continuous combat is very direct.After several months, the whole army fell into a state of extreme fatigue.

In addition, the sudden joining of Ju State greatly shocked them.Although the military strength of Ju State is far inferior to that of Da Yan, they have always been brave, and the new army's fighting momentum is unstoppable, which will naturally make Da Zhou feel jealous.It can be said that the joining of the Ju State Army is like adding wings to a tiger to the Northwest Army.

What made Da Zhou's situation even worse was that the Qingyi Kingdom could not withstand the pressure and was reluctant to send troops again.

The disintegration of the alliance with the Qingyi Kingdom became the last straw that crushed Da Zhou.

They didn't dare to send troops easily, but they didn't want to accept that the fierce battle for several years ended in this way, so they created a situation where they were neither advancing nor retreating.But Li Yan had already made up his mind to end all of this, so he did not give Da Zhou any more time to hesitate, and led the main force of the Northwest Army, together with the flank of the Ju State Army led by Xing Hu, launched an attack on Da Zhou's main battalion. attack.

Although Da Zhou's army was unwilling to surrender, the whole army had no fighting spirit, and it was only a matter of time before they were captured by Li Yan's men.Therefore, the Northwest Army, which had been suppressed for a long time, finally found a chance to vent. In addition, the commander is the king of a country, which greatly boosted the morale of the entire army.

It only took Li Yan two days to defeat Da Zhou.The coach of the Great Zhou Dynasty was hacked to death by the Northwest Army during the fierce battle. The rest of the generals were killed, wounded, and finally alive became prisoners of the Northwest Army.Xing Hu led people to directly take over the food and grass of the Great Zhou Army, and gave them a drudgery.

"The Qingyi army left just in time." A captured Da Zhou general smiled wryly, "That day I tried hard to persuade the general to stop the war and negotiate peace earlier. If he hadn't been stubborn, Da Zhou wouldn't have come to where he is today."

Li Yan glanced at him, and said: "You, a captured person, in front of the enemy commander who captured you, slandered your old master who had just died, it seems that you are very concerned about your own life."

"Since ancient times on the battlefield, there have been heroes who are not afraid of death, and there are also cowards who are greedy for life and fear death." The man said: "I believe that I have never acted cowardly when I went to battle. Now that I have been defeated, there is no shame in asking for a way out. There are wives and children at home, and I don’t want to be separated from them forever.”

Li Yan's eyes fell on him, raised his eyebrows and said: "You are honest. Since that's the case, let's listen and see if there is any bargaining chip that can save your life, so that I can spare your life."

"The Qingyi army was timid on the spot and betrayed the alliance between the two countries. Many of our generals in the Zhou Dynasty couldn't swallow this breath." The man said: "If the banquet allows, they can attack the Qingyi army on their behalf."

The army of Qingyi Kingdom abandoned the alliance before this battle. Although it was not the only reason for the failure of the Great Zhou, many soldiers of the Great Zhou did hate it deeply, and that kind of resentment even surpassed the hatred for the Great Banquet.

It is like being betrayed by an allied brother, and that hatred is often deeper than the hatred of the enemy.

"Qingyi Kingdom is enjoying a peaceful life, but you have bewitched them into this chaotic battle. You hate them for fighting cowardly, so why don't they hate you for dragging them into the water?" Li Yan said: "Your personal enmity will have its own conclusion. , but the Qingyi Kingdom has worked hard to fight us in the past few months, so Wei Yang has brought his men and horses, and set up an ambush on the only way back to Qingyi Kingdom."

The man was startled, he didn't expect Li Yan to even plan to let Qingyi Kingdom go.

"If the banquet were to stop here, I don't know, I thought that anyone could beat us and run away." Li Yan said: "Since they chose to form an alliance with you at the beginning, they have to expect what will happen today."

On the way back, the Qingyi army was ambushed by tens of thousands of horses led by Wei Yang. All the generals were captured or hacked to death, causing heavy casualties.Only a small number of people fled back without armor and armor, but the journey was far away, and those who could return to Qingyi Kingdom alive were probably extremely limited.

In this battle, Dayan and the Ju State united and won completely and beautifully.

"There is one more thing, which may be of some value to you." The man said to Li Yan again.

"You might as well talk and listen." Li Yan said.

The man said: "There is another reason why our army was defeated like this. The day before your surprise attack, our vanguard general defected with his own soldiers."

"Defected?" Li Yan asked.

"Yes." The man said: "He is the vanguard every time he goes out to battle. With him around, there will be a war drum in Dazhou. If he defected, half of the morale of the army will be lost."

Li Yan asked, "Why did he defect, and where did he defect?"

"No one knows." The man said: "But he is not a person who is afraid of death. Unlike me, he didn't think he came here to survive."

Li Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, since he didn't want to survive, he probably wanted to make a big noise before he died.

Li Yan immediately sent an order to the whole army to be vigilant and guard against this person's rebellion.

In the afternoon of that day, soldiers from the camp informed Li Yan of the vanguard general's whereabouts.

The person who came was the soldier who was stabbed in the cheek by the vanguard general that night. He was unconscious that night, and rushed to see him early the next morning. When Li Yan saw him, the blood on his face hadn't had time to wash off. , Now it has dried up, and it looks very shocking.

"That man broke General Yu's tendon and took him away." The soldier said to Li Yan, "He sent a message to His Majesty in a humble position, saying that he would meet General Liu in the valley where he fought for the first time in seven days. As long as General Liu fights against him, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will let General Yu go, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Li Yan asked.

"Otherwise, he will dismember General Yu and send the body to General Liu," said the soldier.

Everyone was indignant when they heard the words, and they all expressed their intention to capture this person.

Li Yan thought for a while, but did not give an order.

"Since he was the vanguard general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he was even accused of defecting in order to secretly capture him when the army was dispatched. It can be seen that he has made up his mind to die." Li Yan said: "Even if you find him, you will not It is possible to capture him alive, at most he will bring back a corpse, but at that time he will be killed as well."

A general said: "Then what to do, we can't really let General Liu fight him one-on-one, can we?"

"That's right, he's not worthy." Someone said again: "He's been defeated by General Liu for so many years, how can he have the confidence to challenge General Liu single-handedly?"

Li Yan naturally knew that this person's request was ridiculous.

But Yu Xingzhi was in his hands, if Liu Linxi didn't know about this matter, how would Liu Linxi face it in the future?

"The seven-day agreement he said, now there are only five days left." Li Yan thought for a while and said, "Look for the hidden guards and send a letter to Kuguzhuang."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, they didn't expect that Li Yan would really call Liu Linxi back.

But since he had already spoken, everyone naturally had no room to comment.

The Northwest Army's victory in this battle was originally something worth celebrating for several days, but because of Yu Xingzhi's capture, everyone was a little angry, and they didn't even have the mood to celebrate.

The dark guard hurried on, and arrived at Kuguzhuang two days later.

When Liu Linxi received the letter, his heart sank, and he even asked someone to prepare a horse.

With Yu Xingzhi's life in danger, it is impossible for him to sit idly by.

Li Yan naturally understood his thoughts, so he sent the message to him.

"Are you going to the northwest?" Chu Yunfeng asked after learning about this.

"Yu Xingzhi has a lot of friendship with me, so it's impossible for me to ignore him." Liu Linxi said: "Besides, the other party arrested him, and the purpose was originally on me. General Yu was just implicated by me."

Chu Yunfeng asked: "Do you know each other?"

"I have been defeated all year round." Liu Linxi said.

Although he had never fought against that person, in the memory of the original owner, he knew that that person was dealt with by the original owner quite ruthlessly on the battlefield. He probably held a grudge all the time, and wanted to make a comeback in his lifetime.Unexpectedly, Liu Linxi would not go to the battlefield this time. He waited for more than half a year, and when the war was about to end, his desire to fight Liu Linxi to the death became stronger and stronger, and in the end it even got a little distorted.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to bear the charge of rebellion just to threaten Liu Linxi once.

"If this person can do such an extreme thing, I think he has made up his mind to kill you this time." Chu Yunfeng said: "The place where he invited you to go may have already prepared an ambush, and it is extremely dangerous for you to go there .”

Liu Linxi said: "Now there is not much time left. I will go to the northwest first, and then I will think about something on the way. Since His Majesty sent me a letter, he must have taken precautions. He will never watch me go to die."

"That's true." Chu Yunfeng said.

Fortunately, Liu Linxi has almost recovered after giving birth, and these days he accompanied Chu Yunfeng to practice kung fu, and even made some progress.It's just that whether he can beat that person, Liu Linxi really has no confidence in his heart. After all, after he passed through, the number of real fights with people is very small.

Liu Linxi prepared the horses and prepared to set off on the same day.

Before leaving, he went to see Shifang and the two children.

When Shifang heard that he was going to the northwest, he was very nervous, as if he realized that something had happened.

Liu Linxi was afraid that he was preoccupied and didn't want him to worry, so she didn't tell him the truth.

"This time the Northwest Army won a big victory. Your mother won the battle. Dad is going to pick him up." Liu Linxi said: "After we return from the northwest squadron, I will come to Kuguzhuang to pick you up. Let's go back to the capital together with your mother." Pro reunion."

Shi Fang asked, "Has your injury healed yet?"

"It's been healed for a long time." Liu Linxi opened his stomach to show him, the scars from the caesarean section had already healed.

Shi Fang hugged him and said, "Then you go, I will take good care of the girl and the baby, and don't let them cry."

Liu Linxi said: "Okay, then Daddy will hand them all over to you."

Liu Linxi hugged Shifang, then took the two children over and hugged them.The little prince was very face-saving this time, it was rare to be hugged by Liu Linxi without crying, and even grinned at him.The little princess was as obedient as ever, and she stretched out her hand to pull Liu Linxi's hair, having a great time playing with it.

Usually they are together every day, but they don't feel much intimacy, but now that they want to leave suddenly, Liu Linxi feels a little bit reluctant.But in front of Shifang, Liu Linxi didn't want him to see his emotions, so he hurriedly put the child down and went to pack his bags.

On the other side, Chu Yunfeng went to Yan Xu's residence.

Yan Xu hadn't seen him for a few days, and when they met, she still ignored him.

If it were different, Chu Yunfeng would probably have nothing to do with him again.But today, when Yan Xu slammed the door and wanted to shut him out, Chu Yunfeng stretched out his hand to block the door firmly. Fortunately, Yan Xu didn't use too much strength at first.

"I came to look for you today because I have something for you." After saying that, Chu Yunfeng took out a needle bag.

Yan Xu glanced at it, and said, "Didn't I tell you, if you don't want it, you just throw it away? Why are you returning it so fast, is it over?"

Chu Yunfeng opened the mouth and said: "This pair of silver needles was given to me by my father when I was 12 years old when I first performed acupuncture for others."

As Chu Yunfeng said, he handed the needle bag in his hand to Yan Xu. Yan Xu looked down and found that the needle bag was not his own, and it looked a bit old.

"What do you mean?" Yan Xu didn't answer, but asked.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time these days, and I really don't know what to give you, so that I can be both unobtrusive and decent." Chu Yunfeng said: "But I have been away for a long time, and I really don't have anything on me that I can give you, so I thought I will give you this pair of silver needles that I have carried with me since I was a child."

Yan Xu took it reluctantly after hearing the words, and said, "It's as if someone lacks your stuff."

"If you don't lack it, you can naturally throw it away." Chu Yunfeng said teasingly.

Yan Xu didn't lose it, she held the needle bag in her hand, with an uncomfortable expression on her face.

Chu Yunfeng looked at him for a moment, and reached out to grab his hand, but Yan Xu hid his hand behind him and avoided it.

"Your temper... is always so duplicity. These days, I didn't bother to say a lot of things to you." Chu Yunfeng said: "Today you still reject me thousands of miles away. By then, I'm afraid I'm already out of your reach."

Yan Xu was startled, and asked, "You want to go?"

"General Yu's hamstring was broken by someone in the northwest. I was an old acquaintance with him. I thought that if I went, I might be able to save him." Chu Yunfeng said.

"You are kind." Yan Xu said.

"Why can't you be kind once?" Chu Yunfeng said and stretched out a hand towards Yanxu.

Yan Xu's hand holding the needle bag was still behind his back, Chu Yunfeng really lost his temper when he saw this, he stepped forward to grab him, leaned against the door and kissed him.Yan Xu stretched out her hand to push him, but she raised her hand and put it down after all, allowing him to entangle with her lips/tongue/interaction/entanglement.

After a while, Chu Yunfeng let go of him and whispered in his ear: "When I come back from the northwest..."

After Chu Yunfeng finished speaking, he turned around and left. Yan Xu looked at his back with a smile in his eyes.

Liu Linxi packed her bags and was about to leave, only to realize that Chu Yunfeng was also following.

"What are you doing next?" Liu Linxi asked in surprise.

"General Yu's hamstring was broken. If you don't treat him in time, even if you rescue him, he may have trouble walking in the future." Chu Yunfeng said.

Liu Linxi said: "You are thoughtful, but have you talked to the young master?"

"I said it." Chu Yunfeng said: "He didn't even give me a word, he has no conscience."

Liu Linxi laughed and said, "You two are more proud than the other, isn't that the old saying that one thing lowers one thing?"

"That's reasonable." Chu Yunfeng said: "I'm used to being tortured by him on weekdays. If one day he treats me with obedience, I'm afraid I won't be used to it."

The dark guard led the horse over, and Liu Linxi and Chu Yunfeng got on the horse.

After everyone left Zhuangzi, Chu Yunfeng realized that there was an extra person among the hidden guards.

Chu Yunfeng rode his horse up to that person, wanting to see his appearance clearly, but the other person clamped his horse's belly, leaving only a back view for him.Chu Yunfeng followed closely, but the other party was always one step ahead of him, never giving him a chance to see himself clearly.

Until after traveling for most of the day, when everyone was resting in the post house.

Chu Yunfeng finally seized the opportunity, pulled the man to a corner and tore off the mask, and was stunned for a look.

"Nonsense, what are you doing here?" Chu Yunfeng said to the man.

The man pulled up the scarf to cover half of his face, and said, "I came with General Liu, not you."

Yan Xu once again put on an air of fearlessness, as if Chu Yunfeng had predicted that he would have nothing to do with him.

Chu Yunfeng was angry and impatient, and he couldn't suppress his anger for a while.

"Yan Xu, can you stop acting like a child? Although the war in the northwest is over, it is still a border gate. If you insist on following, what will you do if you encounter danger?" After Chu Yunfeng finished speaking, he realized something was wrong.He used these words to stop Yan Xu from following. Didn't the other party follow him because he was afraid that he would be in danger?

Thinking about it this way, Chu Yunfeng himself felt that it was unreasonable.

"That's all." Chu Yunfeng compromised: "You never listened to me."

Yan Xu used to be annoyed that he refused to give in, but how could Yan Xu ever give in in front of him?

When it comes to judging people, Yan Xu can't lose him at all.

When I was in Juwang City before, people just appeared without saying hello.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Yan Xu reached out and pinched his fingertips.

Chu Yunfeng was startled, and his heart softened. This was the first time Yan Xu showed his favor in front of him.He immediately grabbed Yan Xu's fingers, and interlocked his fingers. After a while, Chu Yunfeng said, "It's my fault, I shouldn't suddenly say that I want to leave. If you want to follow, then follow."

Yan Xu's fingers interlocked with him slightly, Chu Yunfeng was very happy in his heart, and wanted to do something else to him, but everyone was still busy on their way, and even the time to rest was very limited, so he had to give up.

They traveled day and night, and arrived at Northwest Camp in less than two days.

Li Yan had already been waiting for someone, and as soon as Liu Linxi and the others arrived, he greeted them.

The two hadn't seen each other for several months, and now they suddenly saw each other, and their eyes were red.

Liu Linxi had thought about how he would feel when he and Li Yan reunited many times before.He thought how excited he would be, unable to restrain his feelings, or how he would hug each other and cry bitterly.But today, when he saw Li Yan's figure striding towards him from a distance, Liu Linxi felt very peaceful in his heart.

That kind of calm is not due to the absence of waves, but the sense of steadfastness when he finally sees that person appearing in front of him safe and sound after running around for a long time.It seemed that as soon as he saw this person, all the fear and apprehension would collapse in an instant.Only the long-lost steadfastness remained, which made him feel appropriate and at ease.

Wearing a big cloak, Li Yan stepped forward and hugged Liu Linxi heavily, then let go a little and looked him around.Now Liu Linxi's lower abdomen has become very flat, and there is no abnormality at all. He has recuperated properly in Kuguzhuang, and his complexion has recovered a lot, and he looks healthier than before.

Li Yan stared at him for a long while, full of things to say, but finally said four words in a hoarse voice: "I miss you so much."

Liu Linxi was startled when he heard the words, and stretched out his arms to embrace Li Yan, buried his head in Li Yan's neck, and said, "I'm here."

Li Yan stretched out his arms to hug him, and felt that the part of his heart that had been empty for several months was filled up in just this moment, as if the previous parting was just an unreal dream, and the only way to embrace him was to hold him in his arms. When you are in your arms, everything seems real and believable.

He had dreamed of this person in countless nights, dreamed of the hug and kiss of the other party, or dreamed of the situation that made him uneasy and anxious.During the days when there was no news from Liu Linxi, Li Yan even thought that if he could never see each other again in this life, then what is the difference between everything in front of him that has nothing to do with the other party and illusion?

It only makes sense when you see this person.

"From today onwards, you will never be allowed to leave half a step. I will follow you wherever you go." Li Yan kissed Liu Linxi on the forehead as he spoke. He was busy fighting in the Northwest recently, and his chin was already covered with green stubble, but he didn't have time Shaved and pierced Liu Linxi had an itchy forehead.But Liu Linxi not only didn't want to avoid him, but even leaned close to him and rubbed against him.

After these months of separation, Li Yan finally realized what it means to scratch the heart and scratch the liver.

Now that he finally met Liu Linxi, he no longer wanted to recall how he survived these past few months.

It's a pity that the situation is urgent now, and they didn't even have time to be gentle after meeting, and now there is only the last day left before the seven days agreed by the other party.In the remaining time, they must discuss a feasible way to rescue him.

Li Yan dragged Liu Linxi into the big tent, even though there were others present, he had no scruples, and he never let go of Liu Linxi's hand from the moment they met.Liu Linxi's fingers hurt from being pinched by him, but she knew how he felt at the moment, so she let him hold it.

"The place agreed by the other party is the valley where General Liu and him fought for the first time. It's called Snow Valley." A deputy general of the Northwest Army took a map and spread it on the table, then pointed to one of the places, and said: " Because of the terrain, this snow-covered valley is very cold, and it is covered with heavy snow for more than half of the year, so it is not conducive to fighting."
