v2.Chapter 308

Chi Fei leads his army to take refuge with Gu Shubai, and everyone is happy about it.

At the same time, the rebel troops stationed in the south of Lin'an are full of grief.

Many of them have never seen snow before. The south of the five ridges is like spring all the year round, and they may not see snow once in decades.

At the beginning, people were very novel when they saw such a fluffy snow. Later, they found that the snow seemed beautiful, but it could make people die silent.

It's like a gentle knife. It cuts people's lives.

Yan Shuo didn't care much about this. He made a strict military order that the soldiers should not leave their posts without permission, and even if it was cold, they should stick to their posts to prevent Gu Shubai's army from sneaking attack.

As long as the overall situation in the army is not chaotic, it doesn't matter what's next.

"Have you made it clear that Lin'an didn't really mean to open the gate?"

Yin Shuo was standing in the snow, with a few dead branches covering the solitary grave. He was weak in white robes, and stood in front of him with a bow.

"Yes, sir. Emperor Ning was afraid of Gu Shubai. In order not to let him lead his troops into the city, he even turned away the Zhenjiang garrison. Now Zhenjiang's 1000 garrisons have thrown themselves into Beili, and Emperor Ning is even more unpopular. "

Yin Shuo nodded slightly, "it's expected that emperor Ning would not open the city gate. In this way, the situation in Huzhou will be safe, and there's no need to worry about Gu Shubai's military raid. If the gate of Lin'an doesn't open for a day, we will have an advantage. "

His subordinates slowly raised their heads and worried: "but our soldiers are not stable. They are not only under the pressure of Beili army for a long time, but also under the cold weather. Twelve more soldiers were killed by freezing in today's military report. Young master, should we add some cotton padded clothes and quilts to the weak soldiers

"The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled can freeze to death. They can also reduce some rations."

Not moved, Yin Shuo waved his hand to sign him to step back and walk towards the snow covered grave.

The subordinates stood behind him and shivered unconsciously.

There are many ownerless graves on this mountain. Most of them are civilians who haven't been able to escape after the war. When they die, they can only be buried on this mountain without a tablet.

People have heard that this mountain is still a geomantic treasure land. A noble man from the imperial court is also buried here. There is no way to know exactly what his identity is and where he is buried.

In this time of war and chaos, it's good to have a place to hold bones. Who cares if it's a geomantic treasure land?

After listening to the people's comments, Yin Shuo sent someone to inquire about the specific location. It was deep in the slippery mountain road, where there was a small valley.

In winter, the valley is warmer than the outside. The snow doesn't cover the whole ground. Some places have begun to melt.

From a distance, Yan Shuo picked up a branch from the side and continued to walk towards the valley.

Until we reached the deepest part of the valley, a tall tomb appeared in front of us, on which stood a stone tablet, roughly engraved with the words "Tomb of Ning's royal family women taboo Danyang".

Such a nondescript epitaph made her a disgrace all her life. She was not even qualified to be buried in the imperial mausoleum. On the tombstone, there was only a hidden "Royal daughter" --

not even a princess, the eldest princess.

If it were not for the word Danyang, Yin Shuo could not believe that the once noble and matchless woman was lying in the small valley with an unknown epitaph.

He squatted down slowly and brushed the empty place in front of the monument with his sleeve to remove the snowflakes.

There is a small censer on the side. It seems that it was originally put here for sacrifice, but it was knocked down by the snow. He picked up the censer and stood upright in front of her tombstone, but there was no incense to respect.

He couldn't help laughing bitterly.

"I came here to find you, but I didn't bring any incense. I can't provide one for you. I don't know if I subconsciously don't want this tomb to be yours, or if I'm not willing to give it to you. "

There was no reply from the cold grave, and there was only the howling wind in the valley.

He simply sat on the ground and said to himself with his back against the tombstone of Princess Danyang, "this mountain is full of ownerless tombs. Compared with them, your tombs are tall and well repaired. But I think you are not satisfied. Because this is not a royal mausoleum. The tombstone does not indicate the noble identity of your Royal Princess, nor does it even dig an underground mausoleum. Compared with the real Mausoleum of the descendants of the royal family, it is extremely shabby. "

The chill came to him from the tombstone on his back. He trembled unconsciously. Then he took a pot of wine from his waist and poured two mouthfuls into his mouth.

"Cough..."

As he covered his mouth and coughed softly, he poured the wine from the jug on the snowy place in front of the grave, where the hot wine could reach, and the ice and snow melted.

Yan Shuo coughed and laughed, "what am I talking about? You have long been dead. Where do you know what your tombs are like? How can you be satisfied or dissatisfied? If you have feelings about your death, the most dissatisfied thing is to marry me. You are in a hurry all your life. Even if you die, you have to suffer from me and lie here alone. "

He was smiling, tears seeped from the corners of his eyes, and his pale face fell to the corners of his mouth, penetrating his dry lips.Far away, several subordinates were waiting for him on the edge of the dead wood outside the valley, worried that he would have something unexpected, but they did not dare to approach him.

After all, Princess Danyang is the only wife in his name. It's not a matter for others to intervene whether they love or dislike this wife.

"Fortunately, this tombstone is written on the royal family, not my wife. Just like what this tombstone says, let's assume that we have never met before and have nothing to do with each other. If I see you again in the next life, you will torture me, you will force me to die How are you

Yan Shuo supported his numb body and sat up slowly from the ground.

Wine can warm the body, but it can't warm the heart. His heart is colder than this tomb and harder than this tombstone. So many soldiers in the army have never been able to figure it out.

With stiff legs, he walked slowly out of the valley.

"Young master, do you want to build a new mausoleum for the eldest princess, or Change the tombstone? " The subordinates waiting outside the valley saw him come out and asked.

Yan Shuo didn't pay attention, his face was as cold as ice and snow, looking at the valley far behind, the tomb was out of sight.

"No, it's good."

……

"General, I think the rebels are too cold to fight? What's more, it's almost new year's day. I think they are going to wait for the Spring Festival to fight again? "

The war had not stopped, but Gu said that there was peace in the White army. The soldiers also prepared Spring Festival couplets and new year goods to spend a simple new year in the army.

Gu Shubai didn't stop them. Zhang Chi and Du Fang were the way to manage the army, but he didn't agree with Yan Zheng's words.

"You're wrong. The more everyone knows that the rebels can't stand the cold, the more likely Yin Shuo is to use this opportunity to fight back. You have to understand that he is a politician, not a military general. He will only lead the troops for the purpose of fighting with the court officials, and will not care for his soldiers to die of frostbite in this season. Do you understand? "

Yan Zheng was stunned, "what the general meant was that we thought they were too cold to send troops, so Yan Shuo deliberately let us think so. When we relax, he will attack Lin'an secretly? "

"When we relax?"

Gu Shubai smiles and points to the soldier who pastes Spring Festival couplets outside the tent, "do you still need to wait? Are we not relaxed enough in the army? "

Yan Zheng encouraged the idea of pasting Spring Festival couplets. Originally, everyone just wanted to prepare peanuts and melon seeds for tea in the oven. However, Yan Zheng ordered the Chinese book of the army to write Spring Festival couplets on red paper, and asked the kitchen maid to cut the window flowers.

Fortunately, the servants were too clumsy to do this, otherwise the army would not know what they would be dressed like.

Yan Zheng suddenly blushed, "then I quickly told them not to stick, careful, ready to fight at any time!"

Then he rushed out and was stopped by Gu Shubai, "no need. Let them post as much as possible. If Yan Shuo wants us to relax, let's relax and show him. Only when he sees our relaxation will he relax. "

Fortunately, Yan Zheng followed Gu Shubai for a long time. After thinking about the logic of his going around for a while, he understood it and immediately said with a smile, "so, I've done something wrong, right?"

Gu Shu gave him a glance, and his proud tail immediately put away.

He said slowly: "what you did is right. The soldiers of Beili came all the way to Dongling, but they couldn't go home to reunite with their parents after the Spring Festival. There is always homesickness among the wanderers. It's good for you to take them with you. That's the way to show sympathy for the soldiers. "

Yan Zheng only touched his brain with a smile, a little embarrassed.

Gu Shubai continued: "but don't let everyone play too much. What should be alerted should be alerted and what should be prepared should be prepared. Only when Lord Chen persuades emperor Ning to open the gate of Lin'an, can he turn the defense into an attack. "

Hearing this, Chi Fei said, "general, what if your majesty refuses to open the gate at the end?"

"Then use the second trick you've prepared."

Gu Shu didn't change the color of his white face. Obviously, he had already considered all the possibilities. He raised his eyebrows, Yan Zheng and Chi Fei were both thoughtful.

He couldn't help smiling, "what are you still doing? The Spring Festival couplets of the big account have not been hung up yet. "

……

"What's the situation with Dongling?"

When it comes to the end of the new year, Yu Fu is more concerned about Dongling's situation, so he has to ask it every three or five times.

This morning, when Chen Jingxing came forward to play the newspaper, his face was very ugly, "Your Majesty, Emperor Ning is too much! I tried every means to persuade him to open the gate of Lin'an and let the army pass through. He refused to say anything. He pointed out that Beili intended to capture Lin'an. Your majesty acted in an open and aboveboard manner. Apart from the ten important towns and their surrounding areas promised to Beili, we didn't take more than one city. Emperor Ning insulted Beili so much

Yufu knows that Chen Jingxing is a practical person. If he had not used all kinds of means, he would not have put forward this matter in court and exposed his incompetence.

It seems that Ning Chengzhi is determined not to let Gu Shubai lead his army into the city.

Yu Fu nodded slightly. As he was thinking about how to deal with this matter, he saw tianyunpo stand up and said: "Your Majesty, there is another matter related to this. I want to put forward it together so that all the ministers can discuss and your majesty can make a ruling.""Taishi, please say."

Tianyun said: "this time the army stationed outside Lin'an City for a long time, and the grain and grass were wasted seriously. But this winter is particularly cold, and the front has been stretched too long. It is not easy to transport grain and grass from the capital to Lin'an. I thought, "can we use other faster and more effective ways to supplement food?"

One is the inability to pass through Lin'an City, and the other is the difficulty in transporting grain and grass.

Yu Fu nodded and said, "Lin'an is the capital of Dongling emperor after all. I can't understand why Ning emperor has such worries. Mr. Chen, as the Minister of Honglu temple, has always been good at diplomatic means. If Mr. Chen can't help it, I'm afraid he will have to step back and ask for it. "

The sky cloud breaks a way: "how to step back to seek it?"

As the Minister of the Ministry of war was about to go out, Yu Fu said, "it's very easy to bypass Lin'an City. I know that it takes a lot of effort to make a detour in Lin'an, but general Gu is experienced in many battles. He must have the best route and decision to make a detour, and he can still win this battle. "

She said cloud light wind clear, obviously to Gu Shubai's ability very trust.

The Ministry of rites and the Ministry of internal affairs have been preparing for the wedding one after another, and the Minister of the central court has also heard about it, so it's not surprising to hear Yu Fu's words.

If you don't trust his ability, how can you entrust your whole life?

The sky cloud broke, and the Minister of the Ministry of war reported: "my Lord, your Majesty's idea is the same as that of Gu's army. This is the reward that the minister has just received. General Gu's intention is to bypass Lin'an City and attack Huzhou. The army is ready. Your majesty and Gu's army really have an idea. They want to go together! "

Tianyunpo suddenly took a look at him. The Minister of the Ministry of war regretted his blunder and quickly lowered his head to retreat.

Yu Fu laughed, "since general Gu has been ready, it's better. As for the problem of grain and grass transportation just put forward by the Grand Master Does the grand master already have an idea? "

Tianyunpo took back his eyes and said, "I mean, you can buy it from Dongling court. Today, the southern part of Dongling is actually controlled by the rebel army, and the northern part is controlled by Beili. It was only Lin'an and some small towns around Lin'an that really belonged to the control of Dongling imperial court. But Lin'an has a large amount of grain, and those people in the city alone may not be able to eat it in three years. If you buy grain from the Dongling court, it will not only be convenient, but also benefit each other, enhance the friendship between the two countries and maintain a temporary cooperative relationship. "

Yu Fu looked at the ministers and said, "what's your opinion?"

Bao Taifu said with a smile: "my Lord, I think this proposal is very good. The old minister heard that many wealthy families came to Beili border town these days, which attracted great attention. After sending people to inquire carefully, they knew that they were all the dependents of Dongling courtiers. Now silver is more important to them than grain. Once the request for grain is put forward, Dongling court will agree to it soon. "

Yu Fu was silent for a moment, and his heart was sad. "I've heard about it, too. It's not only the family members of ordinary Dongling officials, but also the family members of senior officials above grade three in the court. Even the ministers in the court don't believe in their court and their monarch. Can the East spirit survive? "

After that, Xue Bi, the Minister of the Ministry of household, said, "although I hate these officials, their family members still need to come forward to take care of them, just like the Li family who migrated to the Ju family. Only when the family members of the ministers are stable and the ministers consider the problems in the Dongling Dynasty, will they be more inclined to Beili. "

Xue Bi was shocked when she heard her first words. She said that she had been afraid of taking bribes for a long time. Why did your majesty look at her and talk about it again?

After hearing this, he was relieved. He quickly stepped out and said, "yes, I will do it. I will never live up to your Majesty's expectations."

Yu Fu's eyes are quite deep, and the corners of his mouth are slightly tilted. He doesn't open his eyes and falls in front of him.

"In that case, the purchase of grain should be done according to what Taifu and Taishi said. By the way, there are few people in the palace. Except for Ning'an and ning'ping, there is no need to decorate too extravagantly at the end of the year. It's better to spend the money on the military so that the soldiers can have a good year in a foreign country. "

Hearing the words, the ministers quickly persuaded him, "Your Majesty, it's impossible! This is your Majesty's first year back in Beili. It should have been very grand. How could you have wronged your majesty? "

"I am not wronged. When there is war in the country, you should be diligent and thrifty. Although the war is not in Beili, my hundreds of thousands of sons are fighting in front of me. I can't bear to be alone and enjoy myself. "

Yu Fu's words moved all the ministers, and some even began to wipe their tears.

It is fortunate for the courtiers and Beili to have a lord like this.

Bao Taifu took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty is right. Your majesty is young and at the age of pleasure, but he can exercise such restraint. I'm ashamed, and I'm willing to follow your Majesty's example and donate half of the new year's money to the soldiers. "

He took his head, and all the ministers responded one after another. At one time, the voice of donating money was higher and higher.

Yu Fu smiles in his heart and looks moved. "I'm very relieved to have Ai Qing like this. I'll keep your contributions to the army in mind."
