I can tell fortunes, so I’m not easy to mess with [Cross Book]

Xie Xi's heart skipped a beat, and the gloomy look that remained between his brows was replaced by an unexpected panic. He wanted to speak, but he was speechless for a while.

He didn't know how to face it, but he couldn't let it go completely, so he was entangled in every possible way and worried.

Bai Yiling also stopped, and the two faced each other for a moment, when Bai Yiling suddenly threw the things in his hand towards Xie Xi: "Go on."

Xie Xi subconsciously raised his hand to copy it, only to feel that the touch was warm and heavy, and it turned out to be a jar of Sophora japonica wine brought from Kyoto.He has been at the border for a long time, and he only stayed in Kyoto for a few days when he went back to deal with family affairs, and then left in a hurry. Naturally, he was not in the mood to pay attention to other things, and he hadn't had a drink for a long time.

This wine was warm in nature and soft in the mouth, Xie Xi was worried that he didn't know what to say, so he unsealed it and took a sip, but for some reason, his eyes were slightly red from choking.

Bai Yiling himself had a jug of wine in his hand. He walked up to Xie Xi and sat on the ground, his gorgeous clothes spread out on the grass. He also raised his head and took a sip, saying: "Although this battle was a small victory, with Sang Hongxian's Personality, he is bound to refuse to stop at this point, his army is in disarray, and he must calm down and regroup when he returns. With our current strength, we may not win if we fight head-to-head, but it would be better if we can minimize casualties. "

Xie Xi was slightly taken aback, he and Bai Yiling hadn't spoken to each other calmly before, and now they met each other with so many things going on, they didn't know where to start.He didn't expect Bai Yiling to talk about things on the battlefield when he opened his mouth, so he felt a little more at ease.

He also thought of this, and he was also a little annoyed, and said: "The army of King Youzhou is currently stationed in Yuema Ridge. I heard that Sang Hongxian built an altar there, and every time before sending troops, his My daughter worshiped the mountain god to boost morale. I once wanted to send people out to burn the altar, but I was trapped in the city of sorrow, and there was no one available, so it failed."

During this meeting, Bai Yiling felt that Xie Xi was much calmer than before.Xie Xi was two years younger than him, and Bai Yiling was sent away when he was one year old. The two had limited interactions when they were children. On the contrary, after Bai Yiling was transferred out of the secret guard, Xie Xi hadn't gone to the army yet. I often look up and see down in Kyoto.

He remembered that the first time he saw Xie Xi after he grew up was in the summer, he went to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing on business, just in time for a group of honorable children who had just been sent to practice martial arts and were practicing swords with their shirts off.

One of the young men's sword was picked up by someone, and it landed right in front of Bai Yiling.At first glance, the sword looked like a sword that cut iron like mud, its green light was shining, and it looked like a pool of clear water under the sun. Fortunately, Bai Yiling was quick and agile, otherwise he might have half his head cut off.

The two teenagers were startled, and hurried over to pick up the swords. Bai Yiling heard someone complain, "Xie Xi, don't use the Qingfeng sword that Master Hou found for you. Such a sharp blade can easily hurt people."

Bai Yiling immediately realized who the handsome young man in front of him was, and at this moment, Xie Xi had already run up to him, with beads of sweat still hanging from his forehead, and smiled apologetically at him: "Brother, I missed it all at once. , I'm sorry."

Facing the sun, his smile looked very dazzling. Bai Yiling narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Xie Xi with a cold face. He couldn't understand why he was born with the same father and the same mother, but his life could be so carefree.

At that moment, he was very, very resentful and jealous.

Bai Yiling ignored Xie Xi's apology, kicked away the long sword he had landed beside him, and walked away.

Later, Xie Xi must have known his identity, and because he didn't know what his parents said, when the two saw each other again, they became sarcastic.But it has to be said that no matter how they are not hostile, in their hearts, for nearly 20 years, they think that the other party is a brother they can't get rid of in this life, and a blood relative they can't cut off.

At this time, the childish boy has grown into a silent and stern man in front of him, and the traces of the vicissitudes of time are inevitably left on his brows, and when he thinks about the past, it seems like a lifetime away.

Bai Yiling took a sip of his wine and said, "Don't blame yourself, you have worked hard in this battle, and the next thing should be everyone working together."

Xie Xi leaned on the tree trunk, and when he heard Bai Yiling's words, his nose suddenly felt sour, and he quickly raised his head slightly, staring at the clear autumn sky, and said for a while, "I'm sorry."

He smiled bitterly and said: "I have thought a lot about this year, and I have always wanted to tell you about my family's affairs... I know that they are to blame for themselves and have nothing to do with others. It is I who owe you, it is my whole family who are sorry for you When I left, I made up my mind that I will meet you again one day and I must be a good brother to you, but I didn’t expect that so many things will happen later... In fact, I have always admired you for many things you have done. Yes. And now it has come to this."

When the accident happened at home, Xie Xi learned the truth of everything, and had resentment and pain, but time cannot be forgotten, but it can let some emotions slowly settle after years of training, and see the true self in tears .

After Xie Xi finished speaking, she closed her eyes and leaned her head against the tree trunk behind her.

Bai Yiling glanced at him, thought for a while, and didn't say anything else. After drinking the wine in one gulp, he took off a leaf beside him, put it to his lips and blew it.

The sound of leaves was simple and clear, and several kingfishers in the grass started up, spread their wings, and flew towards the blue sky.

When Bai Yiling and Xie Xi were talking, Sang Hongxian had just escaped the pursuing Jin army and returned to his tent exhausted.

He returned in a big defeat, in a very bad mood, especially because another important reason for this failure was the leakage of secrets.He couldn't find out who leaked the explosives, so he didn't care about his health at the moment, scolded several important generals bloody and then blasted them out.

Seeing this, everyone was so frightened that they didn't even dare to breathe.Under such circumstances, the only one who dared to approach Sang Hongxian was Sang Hongrui, his favorite daughter.

When Sang Hongrui went in, Sang Hongxian stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back and looked at the scenery outside. Sang Hongrui didn't say anything, and stood behind him silently to accompany him.

After a while, Sang Hongxian finally turned his head and glanced at his daughter: "What did your husband say about what happened on the battlefield today?"

Sang Hongrui said: "What the lord means is that since we can't attack Wagga City, we have to seize another city as a stronghold in order to fight against the Jin army. The most suitable place now is the Tibetan forest in the northeast."

When she said this, she quietly looked at her father's expression, saw that he nodded slightly, and knew that she had the same idea, so she continued with confidence: "The sergeant has already made inquiries, and if you want to attack Tibetan Forest City, you must pass through Tongtian Ridge. The prince said that since he thinks this way, the emperor must also think the same way, so if we planted an army in Tongtian Ridge in advance and waited for the Jin army to pass by, we could catch them by surprise."

Lu Qi is indeed extraordinary. Even at this time, he has never panicked. Seeing that there is still a suitable city to occupy, the first thing he thinks of is not to capture it quickly, but he has not forgotten to analyze the possibility of Luyu first. Action, and finally calculate the enemy again.

Even a scheming person like Sang Hongxian would have nothing to say when he heard Lu Qi's plan.

Sang Hongrui said, "Father, what do you think?"

Sang Hongxian glanced at her, did not answer, but suddenly asked: "How is Linzhang King treating you recently?"

Sang Hongrui froze for a moment, then nodded hesitantly.

She has been through quite a lot of ups and downs these days. After being locked up by Lu Qi and Sang Hongjin for a while, she was released again. Sang Hongrui almost cried with joy, but before she could be happy, someone hurriedly told her that it was Sang Hongjin who was arrested. Catch, Lu Qi was about to go to Youzhou, and Sang Hongrui was taken away in a daze.

During these days of being locked up, she felt resentment and fear in her heart, but Sang Hongrui knew in her heart that even if she arrived in Youzhou, she couldn't expect her father to help her.

After all, it was not Lu Qi who secretly locked her up, but the decision he and Sang Hongjin made together, which shows that the trouble he caused was indeed not small.

After she calmed down for a while, she also struggled out of the almost fanatical resentment, and her mind became much clearer.In addition, after returning to his hometown, Lu Qi had a few in-depth talks with her sincerely, and Sang Hongrui finally forgave him.

For a while, she was living a good life, with her father's love and her husband's company, Sang Hongrui felt the satisfaction she had never had in her life.Sometimes she even hoped that Lu Qi would not return to the capital, and just live like this forever.

Sang Hongxian flashed his eyes, and said: "But I heard that you have been trying to make things difficult for that girl of the Qiu family these days. If you really hate her, father will naturally make her disappear without a trace when there is a suitable time in the future." Wuji, you should also be smart, don't touch yourself."

Lu Qi wasn't heartless to the end, but when he evacuated, he remembered to bring all the family members of the Linzhang Palace with him, naturally, his concubine Qiu Zhen was also on the list.It's just that for Qiu Zhen, it's hard to say whether it's good or bad.

Because she was the main wife in name, but lived in the land of the concubine, on the third day after leaving the capital, his biological father announced that he would sever ties with her and remove her from the family tree of the Qiu family.

All this made Qiu Zhen's situation extremely difficult, and Sang Hongrui was not a good person, so he derogated and humiliated her from time to time.If it weren't for the fact that she had learned some lessons after being locked up for a while, her temper had calmed down a lot, and seeing Lu Qi would sometimes protect Qiu Zhen a little, this woman would have died long ago.

Hearing what his father said, Sang Hongrui didn't take it seriously, but said: "It's okay with her, I just blow my temper sometimes. Father, when do you think our battle will end?"

Sang Hongxian glanced at her and said, "I'm afraid it won't take too long. But by then, you may have to go back to Kyoto again. Are you still willing?"

Sang Hongrui was taken aback. If she would return to the capital one day, there was only one possibility, that is, Lu Qi could ascend to the throne.This was a great thing for her, but Sang Hongrui suddenly didn't know what to say.

She lowered her head, thinking of the domineering and lawless days she had spent in Youzhou since she was a child, and the grievance and humiliation she had suffered in the capital, a surge of resentment suddenly surged in her heart.

But it's not without reason that she likes Lu Qi. That person once patiently stayed by her side, picking flowers for her and praising her beauty.

He came from a noble family, but he once took him to the streets, ate at the roadside stalls, and entered the rather elegant taverns deep in the alleys.She is obsessed with Lu Qiyan's gentleness and grace when he smiles, and also appreciates his ambition and lofty ambition that he occasionally reveals.

Although a lot of changes happened in the later relationship, those feelings are slowly fading away.But this time, the relationship between them has eased a lot, and Sang Hongrui vaguely found that familiar and unforgettable feeling again.

And for some reason, she always had an inexplicable feeling deep in her heart, that she was born to be with Lu Qi, and the position of queen also belonged to her. Although she didn't know where this conviction came from, but Sang Hongrui felt that it was a kind of omen in the dark.

She thought for a while, and Sang Hongxian waited patiently. Finally, Sang Hongrui asked: "Father, then... If it comes to that time, will you go back with us?"

Sang Hongxian was very disappointed with her answer, but he didn't show it on his face. He sighed: "Silly girl, don't you understand? You can live well only if Dad is here."

He looked at the rolling hills outside the window, and said: "I have been a soldier for half my life, and it is not that I am not without lofty ambitions, but I am not forgiving at the end of my age. Now the situation is forcing me to do my best for the court, but they intend to cut off my prince , There is no such reason in the world, even if I want to win this breath, I have to give Lu Yu, a brat who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, a little bit of color."

"However," Sang Hongxian turned around and looked at Sang Hongrui gently, "you are the child my father loves the most. When you are old, what you want to see is the good fortune of your children. I am busy fighting, and my children are few. Your brother is so smart. It's a pity that he died of drowning at a young age. Your elder brother is now in the enemy's hands again. I don't know what the situation is. I have already discussed with the king of Linzhang. I am willing to do my best in Youzhou to help him return to Beijing, but there are three conditions .”

Sang Hongrui raised his head suddenly, Sang Hongxian focused on her, and said lightly: "First, we must send your eldest brother back to Youzhou safely; second, we must make you the queen and your son the crown prince; Changhanguan is the boundary, separate and rule, and the two will not violate each other."

When he was young, he was not a womanizer, and he often ran around on the battlefield, so he only had five children, the second daughter and the youngest son died of illness shortly after birth.

In addition, Sang Hongrui and Sang Hongjin have a younger half brother who was smart, humble and sensible since he was a child, and was very much loved by Sang Hongxian. When he was 12 years old, he accidentally fell into the water and drowned. Died, this is also Sang Hongxian's greatest regret.

Sang Hongrui's heart was beating fast when he heard these words.According to what my father said, for this battle, it was as if he was sure of victory, but he had just lost the battle, so why did he say that?Do you have other cards in your hand?

She said: "I remember my father said that one day later will be the auspicious day of divination. I will offer sacrifices to the oath master and I will offer incense to the mountain god. Is it going to be normal this time?"

Sang Hongxian said: "That's natural. Half of the reason for the defeat this time is that the Wu clan did not come at the agreed time. I have already sent someone to inquire. No matter what the situation is, this time the ceremony will be It must be as grand as possible to stabilize the morale of the army."

He patted Sang Hongrui on the back: "This is also good for your reputation. Now it's no different than before, and you should be sensible."

If it had been put before, Sang Hongrui might still be a little impatient with such instructions, but after going out for a while, compared with the malice towards her from outsiders, these instructions became cherished.

Sang Hongrui realized at this moment that her family is simply too kind, they will never harm her, they will always think of her.One side is Lu Qi, the other side is father, how to choose, it is embarrassing.

Sang Hongrui felt a little stuffy in her heart, secretly thinking about going to give Qiu Zhen a break for a while, and at the same time nodded to Sang Hongxian, and said seriously: "My daughter understands."

For the rest of Wagga City's life after the catastrophe, although the emperor personally led the army to relieve the predicament, Sang Hongxian only retreated temporarily. He has been operating in Youzhou for many years, and now there is one more Lu Qi to assist, so he can't take it lightly.

After a night's rest, just after dawn the next day, another urgent report came from ahead.

This was not about Sang Hongxian's movements, but a spies heard that Lu Qi sent a small army to infiltrate the Tibetan forest city in the northeast to investigate the situation yesterday night, and seemed to have the intention of attacking.At that moment, someone suggested to Lu Yu that before Lu Qi's army moved, he could secretly go to Tibetan Forest City to station in secret, and wait for Lu Qi's army to go.

Regarding this suggestion, Lu Yu was noncommittal, but he had other plans in his mind. After thinking about it, he ordered his generals to reorganize the army and be ready to go at any time.

After everyone retreated, Bai Yiling said to Lu Yu: "Sang Hongxian doesn't know what's going on there yet, I won't go this time, I'll defend the city here."

In fact, just now, the system suddenly popped up to remind him that an important target person ahead was about to arrive in Wagga City, triggering a new mission to make Bai Yiling ready.

Although Lu Yu didn't know the inside story, he also wanted Bai Yiling to travel less, so he said, "That's fine. I feel at ease with you here, so just wait for my triumphant return!"

He touched Bai Yiling's face, smiled and said, "I'll give you a nice gift when the time comes."

Seeing Lu Yu's treacherous smile, Bai Yiling's scalp tingled, and he couldn't help but think of his ambition of "living an extremely luxurious and corrupt life for a month" last time: "If it's wine pools and meat forests or something, you'd better save it."

Lu Yu laughed, without saying yes or no, he waved his hand smartly: "I'm leaving."

"Lu Yu!" Bai Yiling stopped him again, and said, "Be careful in everything, stability is the top priority. It doesn't matter whether you are triumphant or not, what matters is when you return."

He knew that Lu Yu had always had an affair with Lu Qi in his heart, and Lu Qi was a cunning person, and Bai Yiling was worried that Lu Yu would take risks, so he said this.The Son of Heaven went to war, and no one but him dared to say such a thing.Lu Yu was startled, then smiled again.

"Do not worry."

【Ding!Attention the host, your domineering general fox has gone to the mission site: "Tongtian Ridge", and is now upgraded to a domineering emperor fox!

Binding is enabled: Little Ghost Mode, Vicious Tongue Tear Mode, Heaven's Pride Fox Mode, please relax the host and complete personal tasks seriously. (￣▽￣)／】

The system is not combat-oriented, and it can usually be used for special effects and defense functions, but it is not substantially offensive. Therefore, Bai Yiling has not used it much since he went to the battlefield.

He didn't speak for a while, and now he greeted politely: "How are you doing recently?"

The system replied shyly: [The points have been spent. 】

Bai Yiling: "..."

For a moment, he almost had the feeling that he had raised a son, but then quickly dismissed the idea - neither his genes nor Lu Yu's genes could produce such a prodigal.

The system was probably really, really short of money. Before Bai Yiling could speak, he suddenly became excited again and reported to him: [The task trigger character has arrived, the host please get ready! ~(≧▽≦)/~]

After finishing these words, Xie Xi hurriedly came to look for him from the front.After Bai Yiling talked with him yesterday, although the two of them couldn't get along without any estrangement, Xie Xi's psychological burden was obviously much lighter. At least when talking about business affairs, he wasn't as uncomfortable as before.

He also had a lot of work to do, and after entering the door, he quickly said to Bai Yiling: "There is a woman looking for you outside."

Bai Yiling stood up: "Who is it?"

Xie Xi frowned and said: "I went to ask in person, but she was mysterious and refused to tell. She was wrapped in a cloak, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but she explained some things about you clearly. So I'll come and have a look, if you don't want to, you can go away."

Bai Yiling waved his hand: "Where's the person?"

"She doesn't want others to see her, and she's in the back garden now."

It was golden autumn and October at this time, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the grass was green and the trees were blooming. When Bai Yiling walked to the garden behind the government office, he saw a tall woman standing beside a tree hibiscus with her back to him.The delicate pink flowers are reflected in the pool water, the shimmering flowers and shadows complement each other, and the graceful back of the woman is a pleasing picture.

Xie Xi was probably afraid that this woman had other plans, so he sent two soldiers to stand by and watch.The woman heard the sound of the soldiers saluting Bai Yiling, and turned around hastily. Bai Yiling was a little surprised to see her face.

This person turned out to be Lu Qi's concubine Qiu Zhen.At the beginning, Qiu Zhen wanted to marry Lu Yu as a concubine but failed. Later, she also chose to marry into the Linzhang Palace, and even suppressed Sang Hongrui.

Who knows that fate is impermanent, feng shui turns around, Lu Qi failed in the rebellion, fled to Youzhou, Qiu Zhen followed him, this wife is nothing, presumably she has suffered a lot - otherwise she would not have come to see Bai Yiling today .

Seeing Bai Yiling, Qiu Zhen became excited.

Although the two of them didn't have much contact, and it can even be regarded as some small old grievances, but anyway, a few months after she left the capital where she grew up, she was bullied and had nowhere to ask for help. When I reached the hope of being able to save myself from being born, tears filled my eyes.

But now the other party is still handsome and radiant, but she is haggard and looks like ten years older. Qiu Zhen's lips trembled, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Bai Yiling then asked: "The princess came here on an adventure, did she have something to say?"

"Yes." Qiu Zhen came to her senses suddenly, and said eagerly without caring about anything else, "I beg you to save me. When the army retreats, please take me back to the capital too! You provide the king of Youzhou's next move!"

Bai Yiling was noncommittal, slowly plucked off a hibiscus flower, put it in his hand and looked at it, and said, "Let's talk about it first?"

Qiu Zhen said pleadingly: "Today's afternoon is the auspicious time they calculated. The king of Youzhou will hold a sacrificial ceremony to boost morale, and Sang Hongrui will come to the stage to offer incense. The soldiers and civilians of Youzhou believe in ghosts and gods. Is the sacrificial ceremony It goes well, it is very important for their next attack, I can write you the specific location, as long as you are willing to let me return to Kyoto."

Bai Yiling thought for a moment, then asked, "How is Sang Hongrui's words and deeds now?"

A trace of hatred flashed in Qiu Zhen's eyes: "After returning to Youzhou, her words and deeds are quite organized. She is no longer as crazy as before, but her viciousness and domineering haven't changed. I was tortured by her every day. At first, the king of Linzhang was still a little Retaliate a little, but these days he is often not in the camp, and Sang Hongrui gets worse, I really can't bear it!"
