fluttering night wind

In February of the seventh year of Jingning in Daxia, the Guoyun Building after the snow was clean and clean, with carved beams and painted buildings, and continuous corridors and verandahs.The Shangshu ordered Li Zhiyuan to come over from a distance holding a dozen documents in his hand. When he saw the green pines and green bamboos in the garden, which were hardened by the snow, he stopped to watch.

That is to say, more than ten years ago, when Lei Taijun and the old Shu king were still there, there were often theaters in the courtyard, and the towers were suspended in thousands of shapes, with thousands of rows of pearls and emeralds. It's not as good as it is.

Up to now, the human face is unknown, and the green wave is still flowing eastward.

While he was in a daze, Mrs. Biyuan, the concubine of the King of Shu, came down the corridor. Li Zhiyuan stood beside him early on, bowing his head to avoid it.Bi Yuan walked up to him, paused slightly, sighed softly, and scattered into the wind: "Master Li, please persuade the prince. Life is like light dust perching on weak grass, why do you suffer so much?"

Hundreds of flowers and golden skirts passed by, Li Zhiyuan looked ahead, a pool of ice and snow, a small bridge flying north and south, cotton curtains were put down on three sides of the warm pavilion on the bridge, only the side facing the promenade was open, inside A figure sat motionless.When he came to the front, someone had already lowered the warm curtain for him, so the cold air along the way finally disappeared a bit.

The prime minister and general, Meng Ziyou, the king of Shu, saw him coming, and there was a slight smile on his pale face, but there were two will-o'-the-wisps in his eyes, and a few words came out of his mouth: "Calculate the time, you It's time to come."

Knowing what he was referring to, Li Zhiyuan looked at this former colleague and today's mainstay of Xichuan, the awe and precaution accumulated over the years surged into his heart, even though he was dressed in casual clothes, he still respectfully saluted him.

I haven't seen you for a month, and Mencius lost some weight again. He frowned and said nothing at this moment. He pointed with his right hand to the spring stool in front of him covered with a thick brocade mattress. It should not be handed over.

Years ago, when discussing matters in the Honghui Palace, Shen Yizhou, the general of Qingche, invited the King of Shu to be the emperor, which caused an uproar. Dragon chair, how do you know who is in the world of Shu today?All the ministers wanted to climb the dragon and become the phoenix and establish fame, so the memorials to persuade Jin rushed to the Shangshutai like snowflakes, so that Li Zhiyuan's case files piled up into a hill.However, the king of Shu said that he could not recover from his illness, and he had closed his door without seeing visitors for a month.

Mencius poured a glass of wine with one hand to Li Zhiyuan, an old friend and minister. When the latter took it, he accidentally touched the cold fingers of the King of Shu. Not scattered.Li Zhiyuan unconsciously shifted his gaze to his hanging right arm, the sleeve embroidered with dark lotus flowers of the same color was empty, so his heart tightened and his eyes stabbed.

I only heard the person ask lightly: "Did you know beforehand?"

Li Zhiyuan nodded, Shen Yizhou had personally come to the Li Manor to discuss with him, he knew it was impossible but he couldn't persuade him, but these words now seem to be trying to cover up, so he also went all out, and said softly: "Your Majesty should also Knowing Yizhou's true intentions, is he greedy for the merits of support? Since your Majesty left that day, there has been no owner of the temple for three years. Today, the world is in chaos, heroes rise together, the prince is young, and the country depends on the elder. Yizhou is the land of abundance, If you are not the master of chaos, you cannot live in it. How can the prince plan so far, and it will fall short.”

The king of Shu's hair on the temples is already gray, and the time is so hasty.Li Zhiyuan thought to himself, one drink and one peck, could it be pre-determined, three years ago Mencius left the city after seeing the death of General Xuzhou, the only person in front of him who still believes that Emperor Shu can come back alive is probably the only one in front of him.As a result, a sense of responsibility arose spontaneously, and he further said: "People's hearts are scattered, thinking about the master, the prince avoids suspicion and keeps righteousness, and fears that he will lose the hope of everyone."

Mencius glanced over lightly, and his words were unpredictable: "Xiyao Huaide gentleman, also persuade Gu to enter the emperor's throne?"

From Li Zhiyuan's ears, it sounded like accusing him of not keeping the righteousness of a monarch and his ministers.

Li Zhiyuan left his seat and knelt down, grabbing his head heavily and said: "Zhiyuan is a minister and a country, and he dares not spare his heart. There is Liu Xie in the east, who often hides tigers, and Xianbei in the north. Every time he wants to swallow it, he procrastinates for a long time." , but it was calculated by others. The lord is in charge, so that everyone can feel at ease, and it must be passed on to the prince after the great cause is settled. Besides, Zhou Gong also has a day of fear of rumors. Xiangshi died at the beginning, so who can be loyal Know?"

Mencius You heard his cry of blood could crack gold and stone, helped him up with one hand, and sighed: "It's not because of suspicion, Xiyao and I have a deep friendship, and we are not better than others. Lu Yao knows horsepower, and he can see people's hearts over time. It's just that there is no need to mention this matter again. After three years of no military service, these messy things happened due to the ease and laziness of the court. What Xiyao said is very true. When a man lives in the world, he should make meritorious deeds. The whip is the first. If you don't take it today, It was eventually taken by others. I want to lead the crowd north to Xiangyang and east to Jiangling after the spring, and I hope Xiyao will help me."

Li Zhiyuan immediately beamed with joy. Since the first battle in Jiangling, Shu has recuperated and recuperated, but it has been a long time to raise soldiers. If you don’t fight, you will be lazy. Liu Xie is weak and lost the two arms of Bai Yansheng and Lu Zhe. when.Although the king of Shu was unwilling to advance to the throne at this time, he would not be allowed to refuse to advance to the throne if he made a contribution of not rewarding him at that time.

So he bowed and said: "Li Zhiyuan is at his disposal, I wish the prince prosperous martial arts, take Yongjing as soon as possible, and rule the world."

Li Zhiyuan came out of the Guoyun Tower, and saw a palace carriage parked in front of the Wangfu, and an old mother dressed as a palace lady got out of the carriage and hugged a boy who looked like a dough ball. The child was about three years old and was covered in brocade. Yuxue is cute, and Mrs. Bi Yuan waited at the door early to reach out and hug her. The child happily hugged her neck and fluttered in her arms, asking one after another: "Is Weng Weng here today? Ai Ai wants to build a snowman..."

A snowflake floated into Li Zhiyuan's eyes, fascinating his sight.

In March of the seventh year of Jingning, Mencius, King of Shu, divided his troops into two groups. One went north from Xiangyang to Wanluo, and the other went east to Jiangling to approach Yongjing. 20 troops were dispatched. The Great Xia court was in danger. Emperor Jingning Liu Xie simply claimed to be sick He abdicated, and the ten-year-old prince Liu Polu became the emperor, and he ordered the four directions to serve the king.

This autumn, outside the city of Xuzhou, it was clear and clear, and when the wind came, what was not commensurate with the beautiful scenery was a large group of refugees with their families and their families, who were filthy and pickled, coming from the southern plain, meandering towards the city gate.

Guards have been set up at the gate of the city to make inquiries. Under the city wall in the distance, a young man in armor sat on a wooden bench with a big horse and a golden sword. He was drinking tea, and a polished pole leaned against the wall. long gun.After a while, he came out of the city to ride. The man on the horse was dressed in blue cloth and dressed as a scribe. He got off his horse at the gate of the city, looked around, and came to the young man who was sitting and drinking tea.

The young man was less than twenty years old, with red lips, white teeth, tiger body and ape arms. He threw away the tea bowl long ago, stood up and greeted him with cupped fists, "Brother Sun, what's the matter?"

The scribe was none other than Sun Shuye who joined the army in Xuzhou, but the young man in front of him was Bai Yanfeng, younger brother of Xuanwei General Bai Yansheng.

After Sun Shuye coughed for a while, he rubbed his chest and said in a hoarse voice: "General Bai, just now there is another order to come to the mansion. His Majesty ordered you to act as General Xuzhou temporarily, and urged you to go south to serve as king."

Bai Yanfeng frowned and said: "Brother Sun, call me Yanfeng when there is no one else."

Bai Yanfeng came to Linxi when he was ten years old, and grew up under the eyes of the Sun brothers. He was born in troubled times and grew up in the army. In just a few years, he became a tiger and wolf general who was exactly like his brother Bai Yansheng. Compared with his bright and clear demeanor, his personality is quite weird and dull. There are rumors in the army that "dare to shout at Dabai, dare not laugh with Xiaobai", which means that he is serious, has too strict integrity, and fears him like the king of Hades.

Bai Yanfeng looked at the remaining veins of Cangshan Mountain shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance, and suddenly asked: "Brother Sun, what color is the mountain?"

What a Baiyan Peak!Sun Shuye was startled, he touched his chest with one hand, a sweet smell came out of his mouth, he suppressed it for a long time, panted and said: "It's as blue as blood."

Bai Yanfeng turned to look at his pale and uncertain face, and suddenly smiled, his eyebrows were picturesque, just like the sound of geese alive: "Then let me see the color of his Liu family's blood. He just came to reward him now." Aren't I too late? Brother Sun answered for me. After Xiangnan helped Fu Xi capture Xiakou, he begged him to send troops to Jiangling to rescue my brother. What Fu Xi said that day is now verbatim. Give it back to them."

"Yanfeng", Sun Shuye heard him mention the battle in Jiangling three years ago, his face was like gold paper, this battle is also his inevitable hatred.At that time, he was staying in Xuzhou, and the sound of white geese was about to attack Jiangling.Then he trembled and said: "There is no need to mention the past. After all, is it the king's land under the whole world, and the king's minister on the shore of the land."

Bai Yanfeng smiled slightly, he naturally knew that if his brother Bai Yansheng was here, Sun Shuye would not say these clichés, and when he wanted to speak again, Sun Shuye suddenly coughed.Bai Yanfeng looked at his increasingly thin body shaking like a leaf in the autumn wind, and couldn't bear it, and said in a low voice: "Brother Sun, don't worry about it anymore. My brother is definitely not dead! Whoever dies, he won't die either!"

Sun Shuye raised the ground to stop his cough, and the two pairs of eyes in his sunken eye sockets were frighteningly bright. He used to think about this kind of thought all the time, but three years passed slowly, hope became more and more elusive, and despair gradually took over. upper hand.

Bai Yanfeng said calmly: "Trust me! Even if he goes to the underworld, Yan Rong will scold him back! Before that, we have to look after Xuzhou for him, no one can borrow troops!"

After the young general finished speaking, he picked up the spear leaning against the wall and walked straight into the city gate.

Cheng Menlang was still in the process of registering refugees one by one, Bai Yanfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and saw a middle-aged man in common clothes leading a ten-year-old child with a waist card and was about to enter the city, so he stepped forward and stopped him for questioning with a whip : "You come from Chao County? There has been a three-year famine in the Jianghuai area, and you look good."

The middle-aged man was white and beardless, and although he was dressed in rags, his face was plump. The child he was holding in his hand also had pretty eyes, and he hid behind him, and heard the man screaming: "My lord, the villain's complexion is born." So, it’s just a vegetarian diet all year round.”

Bai Yanfeng nodded, and walked around the child a few times, a cold smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When Bai Yanfeng was speaking, Yongjing, thousands of miles away, was already in chaos. Soldiers approached the city, and four gates of fire burst into the sky. The emperor was protected by Sangong and fled to Yangzhou. The biggest catastrophe since Lidu.

The inside of the city was horrible, and among the fleeing people, there was a young man in black walking through the gorge like a reverse wave.At the beginning, he rode a horse, but later the horse was taken by refugees. He gritted his teeth angrily, soared out of the crowd, and sprinted on the eaves. After a while, he found a family in Wuyi Lane in the south of the city. In front of the hall.

Outside the eaves of the Buddhist hall are mountain pools, pine, bamboo, orchids, and terraced courtyards, containing wind and dew, and flowing fragrance.There are dense swallow nests under the eaves, which is the "Swallow Hall" of Xie's family.The young man searched all the way and saw that there was no servant guarding the door, and his face was already pale. When he saw a woman in plain clothes with disheveled hair kneeling under the ancestral tablet in the hall, he was overjoyed and rushed to the front of the hall, saying anxiously: "Sister , Shu soldiers are coming in soon, you follow me quickly."

The woman raised her head, her eyes were bright and her teeth were shining brightly. She was in her twenties and she hadn't spoken yet. The young man suddenly saw a pair of scissors in her hand, and his expression changed immediately. He snatched it and threw it into the pool outside the house, saying : "Sister, what are you doing?"

That woman was Xie Lianbi, at this moment she burst out laughing, and said: "I just want to ask you, I want to cut the hem of the Dao uniform, what are you doing so rough, quickly pick up the scissors for me."

Xie Liancheng noticed that his sister was wearing a blue Taoist uniform on her lap. Knowing that it was a misunderstanding, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but he still asked suspiciously: "Why are you changing the Taoist uniform? I heard from my uncle that you don't want to follow Yujia Let's go, why?" The bandits are powerful, the crown prince Xie Kun is in charge of supervising teachers, leading 3 Yongjing guards to stay at the city gates, the country's veins are like silk, tied to one person, and there is no time to take care of the orphans at home .

Only then did Xie Lianbi lower his head and remained silent. Xie Liancheng realized that even her hair was disheveled, and instantly understood something, and his voice trembled with anger: "Are you still twisting your hair? You entered the swallow as an unmarried It’s nothing more than guarding the ancestral tablet for Xie’s family, why…” He suddenly understood at this point that once the city is broken, jade and stone will be destroyed, entrusting the life of wolves and committing themselves to the tiger’s mouth, women are always more dangerous than men.

But Xie Lianbi said indifferently: "Little brother, don't blame sister, I have a bit of selfishness. In the past, when the country was ruined and the family was destroyed, there was a pool under the eaves, and you just jumped into it. Why twist your hair?"

The woman remembered that in Xuzhou many years ago, the Xianbei army besieged the city, and her father led troops south to King Qin. She insisted on staying in the city to appease the people. The Beiming Hall, hand in hand under the steps, is full of splendor.So two lines of tears finally flowed down his face, and he said softly: "How can I die before my lover returns?"

There was a moment of silence, the two sat opposite each other as they did when they were children, Xie Liancheng's thoughts were confused, he didn't know how to persuade him, and unconsciously remembered that when he was a child, he broke the magic weapon while playing in the Buddhist hall, and the elders of the clan punished the two of them to kneel opposite each other here, and the corridor was cloudy and rainy Continuous, wind and rain, flat land becomes river.

In June of the seventh year of Jingning, Shu soldiers besieged Yongjing. In July, Tai Fu Duan Hui and Da Sima Fu Xiyong led hundreds of officials to leave Beijing to escape to Hangzhou. The emperor appointed Liu Mi, the king of Qinghe who was one year old, as emperor.

Yongjing was besieged for several months, but the armies of the four directions did not move, and the soldiers could not save them. In September, the soldiers of Shu broke through Yongjing for the first time, and the crown prince and Taifu Xie Kun died for the country. looting.

The author has something to say: What Xie Lianbi said means that the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. According to the three obediences and four virtues, I will die for the country, but now I use the way of twisting my hair to become a monk to avoid death, because I still have a person in my heart, who lives and dies every day. If I don't know, I will die with my eyes closed.

Pray for the people on the missing Malaysia Airlines flight, may the world be peaceful and the songs will not stop.
