Chapter 1277 Chapter 583
I don't know how long it took, Nangong Yue suddenly woke up in the dark, the first thought was, what time is it now?
The goal of entry was darkness and dead silence. The darkness was originally disturbing, but the next moment, the familiar body temperature of someone clinging to her skin, and the familiar smell lingering in her nose calmed her down immediately.
Ai is here.
Head to head with myself, shoulder to shoulder, skin to skin, breath entwined with each other, heartbeat thumping to a rhythm...
I was born in the same quilt and died in the same coffin. That's how it felt. Nangong Yue smiled sweetly and leaned on his bare chest, just as she was about to close her eyes, but a slight movement of hers woke Xiao Yi from her sleep.
"What's wrong?" He hadn't woken up yet, and his voice was a little hoarse and confused. While speaking, he tightened his arms and hugged the girl in his arms tightly into his arms, feeling contented in his heart. Sigh, the misty eyes gradually sober up...
Nangong Yue didn't intend to wake him up, especially since he was about to go on an expedition, and now was the time when he needed sleep and rest the most, so he hurriedly reassured him: "It's nothing. Ayi, the time hasn't come yet, just sleep a little longer. ."
Xiao Yi blinked, but he was completely awake in an instant. He is a martial arts practitioner, and he is at the most energetic age. He just rested for a while, and the whole person was in good spirits.
At this moment, it was dark all around, but his jet-black eyes shone brightly in the darkness, flashing with the brilliance of cold stars.
"Stinky girl, are you thirsty?" He propped up his body and lit the shofar palace lantern beside the couch. The candlelight emitted a dim yellow light in the palace lantern and sprinkled softly on him, which was originally bound to him. The ribbons on his hair became loose at some point, and hung on his hair vainly. His black satin-like hair was half loose, draped in a messy manner on his shoulders, and slid down against his smooth skin...
Nangong Yue's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she nodded dumbly.
Seeing her cute appearance, he couldn't help but pecked at the corner of her mouth, then sat up, picked up a teapot from the desk beside the couch, poured her a glass of water, and handed it to her hand.
Nangong Yue also sat up holding the thin quilt, holding a small white porcelain cup, her heart was warm...
At this moment, there was a loud roar of roosters outside, which broke the calm of dawn and caused Nangong Yue's hand holding the cup to pause in mid-air.
The young couple looked at each other, and when they both knew they were parting, they took another step closer.
There was silence in the room, and Nangong Yue said gently, "Ayi, I'll take care of you..."
When the cock crowing at the fifth watch, the sky outside showed fish belly white, but all corners of the garrison were already brightly lit.
Everyone in the mansion knew that the prince was going to lead the army today, so they prepared accordingly.
Nangong Yue carefully and personally served Xiao Yi, put on the gold inner armor over the coat, then put on the outer robe, and then the silver armor...
It was obviously a simple matter, but it became difficult because of Xiao Yi's obstruction. For example, just as she put on the left shoulder armor for him, Xiao Yi kissed him on the left cheek, and then got tired of it. Greedy hugged her slender waist obstructing her next step.
"Ayi!" Nangong Yue reluctantly raised her voice slightly, it took a long time for a stick of incense, and she hadn't even put on her clothes. Dajunchen is about to set off, and if they continue to grind, don't they even have time to eat a good breakfast!
Xiao Yi reluctantly sucked on her other cheek again, and finally took a half step back obediently, flattening her mouth in grievance, she was even more pitiful than a little girl who couldn't eat candy... No, she is not candy!
Nangong Yue shook her head in her heart, she was really not careful, she would be led astray by this guy Xiao Yi.
She tried her best to put a face on the floor, and this time, she finally put on the silver armor for him without anyone interfering.
Nangong Yue took a step back, looked at Xiao Yi with satisfaction, the corners of her mouth raised slightly... Suddenly, the eyes turned dark, Xiao Yi had come to the front, bowed her head and took the corner of her mouth to teach him to be nostalgic smile...
The room was quiet, only the sound of breathing and the heartbeat of the two of them blended together...
boom! boom! boom!
...
Inside and outside, the three maids have been waiting for a long time. They knew that Xiao Yi was going to go on an expedition. After calculating, the masters would probably get up at the time of the rooster and waited in the main room early.
The candles in the inner room lit up as they expected...
However, the time it took for the masters to get up, wash, and change clothes far exceeded their expectations. Lily counted the time silently in her heart. It must have been about half an hour.
Lily moved her lips, wanting to ask her cousin if she would just warm up her breakfast, but she swallowed the words again, to save her cousin from disliking her for talking too much, but she didn't know that Baihui would also think about it for a while. .
Baihui glanced in the direction of the door curtain, and was about to open her mouth when she heard the sound of the curtain being lifted, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue finally came out of the room.
Lily's sharp eyes stayed on Nangong Yue's slightly red and swollen lips for a moment, and she thought: Sure enough...
As soon as the master came out, Baihui and Thrushi neatly took out the prepared meals from the food box and placed them in three or two.
Originally, breakfast didn't need to be too real, but considering that Xiao Yi was going to go out today, it is estimated that today's lunch and dinner would not be able to eat anything good, so Nangong Yue had told the kitchen yesterday to prepare a hearty breakfast this morning. meal.
Stewed pheasant with mushrooms, fish casserole, roasted rabbit meat with cumin, scrambled eggs with leeks and shrimp skin, wild vegetables with sesame salad...
The pheasants and hares were caught by Xiao Hui, and the fish were caught by Lin Jingchen on purpose.
When Xiao Yi saw it, he knew that this was specially prepared for him by Nangong Yue. He glanced at Nangong Yue with a smile on his face, and then expressed his support with the most direct action. He picked up his chopsticks and ate.
Nangong Yue also picked up the chopsticks and ate gracefully.
I saw that at the dinner table, one was devoured, the other was gentle and elegant, and the latter also prepared dishes for the former from time to time.
Baihui couldn't help but curl her lips slightly. The masters are still like this. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it seemed that the two were very different in temperament and behavior, but they always inadvertently revealed a wonderful sense of harmony.
The three maids stepped aside wisely, not disturbing the master's meal.
By the time Xiao Yi finished his breakfast, it was already over half of the hour.
It was only half an hour before departure, even if Xiao Yi was reluctant to part, he had to stand up, and the two walked towards the gate together.
Guan Yubai and Fu Yunhe were already waiting at the gate. Although they did not go out with Xiao Yi's army this time, they were going to see him off in person outside the city gate today.
Bamboo had already prepared Xiao Yi's black cloud to ride on the snow, and was also waiting there. He also changed into a battle robe and armor, and his usual youthful face looked a little more heroic.
Xiao Yilily got on his horse, and then couldn't help but look back at Nangongyue, Nangongyue smiled slightly, still as before, telling him with his eyes and smile: Yi, I'll wait for you to come back!
Xiao Yi also laughed and replied silently: Wait for me!
He took the horse's belly, and no longer loved his sons and daughters, he took the lead out of the house, Guan Yubai, Fu Yunhe, and Zhuzi followed closely, and the horses' hooves flew.
Although he didn't look back, Xiao Yi also knew that Nangong Yue had been watching him leave until he abducted Yong'an Street...
After turning the corner, the dark clouds and snow under Xiao Yi's crotch galloped faster, almost taking the lead.
Fu Yunhe and Zhuzi in the back looked at Xiao Yi's slightly stiff back, and exchanged glances, especially Zhuzi, they really wiped away tears of sympathy for their eldest son: Since they got married with the eldest son, the days together have been absurd. It can be counted, this God has also treated Shizi badly... No, God bless the Shizi to marry the Shizi, it's all to blame the damn Nanliang people!
Thinking about it, Zhuzi suddenly shuddered for the people of Nanliang. With his understanding of Shi Ziye, he would definitely put the blame on the people of Nanliang and start killing people!
Seeing that the distance between himself and Xiao Yi was getting farther and farther, Zhuzi didn't dare to continue thinking about it any more, so he accelerated his horse and chased after him.
Several people did not stop all the way, and when they reached the gate of Yanding City, there was still a quarter of an hour before Chenshi. A lot of people from Yanding City were surrounded by the city gate. They also heard the news that Shizi was going to go on an expedition, and they came to see them off one by one. Everyone's eyes could not hide their excitement: Shizi led his troops to fight. Dengli City is not only to regain their territory in the southern border, but also to avenge the people who died in their Yanding City!
When Xiao Yi's steed drove through the street, he didn't know who was the first to kneel down, and then, the other people also knelt down, all of them fell to the ground, their expressions were so pious and tragic.
They are kneeling on Xiao Yi and God, hoping that God will help Shizi to defeat Nanliang in this trip.
On the other side of the city gate, all the generals were waiting there. Some of them wanted to go out with Xiao Yi, while others stayed behind or guarded the city or stood by.
The army of 20,000 people dressed in bronze helmets and iron armors has been lined up to stand by, neatly lined up in a huge square, with almost no end in sight, just standing there, releasing a fierce murderous aura. Get ready, get ready to fight the enemy on the battlefield, and take back their southern Liang city...
After half an hour, the army gradually moved away under the leadership of Xiao Yi, leaving only the generals who saw off standing there, looking at the dust rising in the distance, unwilling to leave for a long time...
"Master Li!"
I don't know how long it took, Guan Yubai suddenly said.
Li Shoubei, Su Yuming, General Zheng Cang and others all looked at Guan Yubai, Guan Yubai pulled the horse rope to drive the horse to turn around, and indifferently instructed: "After half an hour, let Yanding stay behind. The generals of the city go to the garrison to discuss military affairs!"
Li Shoubei was stunned for a while, and before he could respond, Guan Yubai gave him a slight nod and took the lead in riding away. The little four next to him naturally rushed to follow him, and was always the most loyal shadow of the young master.
Li Shoubei looked at Guan Yubai's back with a heavy gaze, his face was as deep as water, but he didn't say anything, but those young generals were not so calm.
"Master Li," a square-faced young man clenched his hand holding the horse rope and said angrily, "As soon as the Shizi leaves, this Marquis Anyi blatantly summoned the generals, what do you mean by him!" The more he talked, the more angry he became, two flames ignited in his eyes.
"Captain Yu Qi, what else could this mean?!" Another young general sneered, "I don't want to take the opportunity to seize power!"
"This Marquis Anyi is really deceiving people too much! First, he forced the prince to hand over power to him, and now he is pressing him step by step..." A middle-aged soldier with a moustache frowned.
"Master Li, we must give this Marquis An Yi some color!" Yu Xingrui gritted his teeth and said. If you don't give this person a good blow, this Marquis of Anyi is afraid that he will fly into the sky!
Li Shoubei frowned, and hurriedly advised: "Xiaoyu, don't be impulsive... Have you forgotten the order of the prince before he left?" The affairs of the three cities are handed over to him, and it is always good to see how he behaves...
Yu Xingrui was silent for a moment, then nodded stiffly, "Master Li, I understand."
Yu Xingrui seemed to be persuaded and behaved like a child in front of Li Shoubei, but when he turned his head, he secretly exchanged glances with the people beside him, and all of them nodded knowingly.
Not far away, Xiao Si slowly got off his horse and looked behind him.
Those people did not deliberately suppress their voices, and the ears and eyesight of those who practiced martial arts naturally could clearly hear them clearly. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his dark pupils...
Feeling that Xiao Si behind him was behind, Guan Yubai also pulled the rope, slowed down the horse, turned to look at him, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Little Si?"
"Young Master..." Xiao Si hurriedly said, trying to tell Guan Yubai something, but was stopped by a knowing but indifferent smile from Guan Yubai.
"Let's go back."
Five words will soothe Xiao Si's slightly impetuous heart. Xiao Si likes these five words the most. For him, the place where the son is there is his home.
In his eyes, the son is omnipotent!
Since the son doesn't care, Xiao Si won't keep those outside disturbances in his heart, and he will go back to the garrison with Guan Yubai.
As soon as the two returned to the garrison mansion, they saw a young captain greeted him with a smile on his face, in stark contrast to the expressions of Li Shoubei and others.
"Master Marquis," the other party greeted Guan Yubai with a folded fist and salute, it was Li Yunqi, "Xiao Shizi has already set off?"
"Li Xiaowei is exempt from the ceremony." Guan Yu said with a smile, nodding in agreement, his attitude was gentle but there was a trace of alienation.
Li Yunqi, who was in a good mood, didn't care.
Today, Xiao Yi went on an expedition, and all the generals in the city felt heavy hearts, but Li Yunqi was quite relieved, clasped his fists and said to the official language: "Master Hou, you will be in charge of the affairs of Yanding, Huiling, and Yongjia next, presumably The affairs are busy, and if there is any use for the last commander's place, please feel free to give your orders." After speaking, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart: Although the prince of Zhennan has a stubborn temper, sometimes he can do things as he pleases. He took a slant, but he was quite abiding by the monarch's orders. When he set out on his own expedition, he let the Marquis of Anyi handle the affairs of the three cities. It is no wonder that the emperor would let this son of Xiao go back to the southern border...
Guan Yubai smiled lightly and said, "Thank you Li Xiaowei for your kindness. If there is a place where Li Xiaowei is needed, this marquis will not be polite." After a pause, he said again, "This marquis is the first to hold the third hand. As for the city and many other official duties, I will leave first."
After sending Li Yunqi away in a few words, Guan Yubai and Xiaosi continued to walk towards the main hall, one in front and the other behind, their shadows merged together on the ground...
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, but the main hall of the garrison was still empty and sparse.
Apart from Guan Yubai, who was sitting on the chair of the grand master, only Li Shoubei, General Zheng Shen, Fu Yunhe and a few sporadic generals got it, including Su Yuming, who lost to Guan Yubai last time.
Li Shoubei and General Zheng looked at each other and exchanged glances, both of them were worried.
Unexpectedly, Yu Xingrui and the others were so bold, and this is too shameful for Marquis Anyi... If Marquis Anyi becomes angry and has not officially started a war with Nanliang, their southern border army will fight within the first, so what is it?
Li Guard's brows were furrowed, and his heart was extremely heavy.
Guan Yu put down the tea cup in his hand calmly, then took out a golden token from his arms and placed it gently on the table.
Li Shoubei, General Zheng Shen, Su Yuming and others didn't recognize this token, their pupils shrank, and they almost stood up without gaffe.
How could the token of the prince be in the hands of Marquis Anyi? !
This is a token that represents the identity of the prince. There is only one piece in this world. Seeing orders is like seeing people.
Ignoring the astonished eyes of everyone, Guan Yubai's expression was still indifferent, and he said with a slightly raised voice, "Someone!"
A soldier in armor strode forward and gave a military salute.
The official language Baiyun lightly ordered: "At the order of the prince of Zhennan, we will gather all the generals here!"
Soldiers shouted their orders and left.
Everyone's heart was turbulent, and they didn't know whether they were surprised or suspicious. Li Shoubei and General Zheng looked at each other again. No matter what happened this time, Yu Xingrui and others were at fault. They thought that Guan Yubai would take advantage of it. This opportunity is powerful, but I don't want the other party to act in the name of the prince... What exactly is this Hou Huai's mind? !
Although the generals were in shock, no one asked.
And Fu Yunhe still had some understanding of Guan Yubai. He hesitated for a moment, then the casual smile on his face disappeared, and he asked, "Master Hou, how come my eldest brother's token is in your hands?" What are your plans? !
All eyes in the main hall moved from the golden token to Guan Yubai's face, and every pair of eyes were bright, waiting for him to give them an answer.
Li Shoubei, Su Yuming and others faintly raised an expectation that even they didn't know...
Guan Yubai said calmly, "There can only be one head coach of the Southern Border Army."
This sentence is meaningful, but the mere ten words express his attitude succinctly——
One army has no two masters!
The head coach of the Southern Border Army can only be Xiao Yi.
There is no doubt about that.
He came here to assist the Prince of Zhennan, not to decentralize power, nor to disintegrate the Southern Border Army.
In the main hall, it was quiet for a while, silent.
Several people in the hall couldn't help but looked at each other in dismay again, thinking to themselves: What does Marquis Anyi mean that he won't act beyond the emperor? But can they trust him?
But Fu Yunhe understood: no one can force Big Brother, this token was given to Guan Yubai voluntarily by Big Brother, which also represented his attitude. Big Brother was willing to believe Guan Yubai, and believed that Guan Yubai could help the Southern Border Army. A hand in hand.
That's easy.
Fu Yunhe hooked his lips, as long as he believed in Big Brother.
In this subtle and strange atmosphere, Yu Xingrui and other soldiers arrived one after another. They came because of the token of Shizi, and they could not but respect Shizi.
But they were all unwilling and unwilling, and even more resentful in their hearts.
Guan Yu's white eyebrows and eyes are gentle, and he does not have the slightest resentment because of the neglect of the generals. He has only been in Yanding City for more than a month, and he has no achievements. The battle in the sand table is just talk on paper. How can these people know Easy to believe in him.
Although Xiao Yi entrusted the affairs of the Three Cities to him in front of the generals, Guan Yubai knew that those soldiers were unwilling in their hearts, so he deliberately chose the day when Ayi went to war. The purpose of convening the generals is to let everyone face up to this matter and his existence, so as not to delay the military aircraft at a critical moment.
After Guan Yubai finished drinking a cup of tea, all the generals also arrived and sat down. Another half an hour had passed.
Yu Xingrui and the others were all laughing and not smiling, waiting for the official language to reprimand them with a fake tiger. Unexpectedly, the opening line of the official language turned out to be—
"Although the prince has led the army to go out, the main battlefield of this battle is in Yanding City, and it is you who need to fight..."
In the huge hall, there was an uproar, the soldiers couldn't believe their ears, and Su Yuming almost pinched himself.
This is too mysterious, right? !
