Chang Anqing

Following Zhao Yi's overnight rush, but in just seven days, Zhao Yi rushed to the besieged Yanmen with lightning speed. The defenders of Yanmen could only use shattered bricks and stones to make up for the broken city wall. Even in this short repair, countless compatriots among them were killed by the enemy's violent attack. They lost their lives, but the movements in their hands did not stop for a moment, because they knew that there were countless compatriots and relatives behind them. Once the last line of defense in front of them was broken, the Turks would drive straight in, trampling their land and ravaging their relatives.

Seeing that the group of prey surrounded in front of him was so tough, the Turkic Great Khan Ashina Yushan naturally refused to give up. He also let the Turkic soldiers attack day and night, and refused to give the soldiers in Yanmen a moment's rest.

Until one day at dawn, when the Turkic people did not know how many times they had launched an attack, a low but ear-splitting horn sounded soaring into the sky. When they followed the sound, they saw the unique banner flying in the sky. On the hilltop not far away, a sharp-eyed person trembled and said in the next moment: "Yes, it is Yuling King, it is Yuling King!"

"The King of Yuling is here to help, the King of Yuling is here to help!"

This cry of joy and tears resounded through the entire Yanmen Tower, inspiring everyone to be shocked and cheered for it. They all firmly believed that as long as there was Yuling King Zhao Yi, their city would not be broken, and their home would be safe. will not die.

"Great Khan, Yuling King, Yuling King is here—"

Hearing the reminder from the people around him, Ashina, who was standing on horseback in the formation to oversee the battle, stared at the place where the flag was flying, squinting his eyes immediately and said: "Formation, no matter who it is, it can't stop my army!"

Almost at the same time as the Turkic people changed their formation, the horns of the charge flew up, and the next moment, Zhao Yi, who was wearing a silver armor, took the lead and rushed towards the Turkic people with a group of Daxing warriors.

The sound of horseshoes suddenly resounded through the mountains and the earth, and the compatriots who came to help were fighting the Turkic people under the leadership of Zhao Yi. Liu Bi, the prefect of Yanmen who was guarding the city gate, was so excited that he immediately pulled out the knife in his hand. Gao shouted: "Open the city gate and meet the enemy!"

As the words fell, countless Yanmen defenders followed Liu Bi's footsteps, regardless of life and death, regardless of fatigue, and rushed out of the city gate together, joining the battle of life and death in an instant.

Because the previous siege battle was very easy, at this moment, I suddenly met the frightening King Yuling. Looking at him and everyone under his command, I wish I could stand up to everyone, and see the defenders who couldn't shrink back before the Yanmen Gate. The Turkic people were gradually panicked, Zhao Yi took advantage of this gap and immediately ordered a change of formation, but in an instant, the Turkic people were rushed to pieces, and at this moment, Zhao Yi saw In the eyes of the formation, the Turkic Khan Ashina Yudan was heavily protected by the Turkic people.

At the same time as his eyes were locked, Zhao Yi had already tightened his grip on the reins, and headed towards the distraught Ashina Yudan with his horse's belly.

"Trash! Trash!"

Seeing the panicked Turkic soldiers, Ashina Yu Shan cursed furiously, but at this moment, a gust of fierce wind suddenly hit his side, when he dodged instinctively, he saw that Zhao Yi had broken through the siege by himself. He comes.

Ashina's fighting spirit was aroused in his heart, and he immediately blocked him with a knife, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yi, who came here day and night, was so powerful that he didn't lose the wind at all, and killed him against the wind with one move.

Seeing that the situation was not right, a Turkic soldier immediately shot at Zhao Yi with an arrow under Ashina's gaze. Caught Ashina on the belly of the horse under the single seat.

As the horse neighed in pain, Ashina Yu Dan was thrown down heavily by the horse. Seeing Zhao Yi attacking again, countless Turkic people swarmed up, forcing Zhao Yi to retreat steadily.Under the cover of his subordinates, Zhao Yi led his cavalry to chase and intercept him again. No matter how unwilling Ashina Yudan was, he was thrown off his horse at this moment, and his morale was already shattered, so he could only order to retreat.

Seeing that the Turkic people were evacuating quickly, Yang Xiao wanted to lead his troops to continue chasing, but Zhao Yi raised his hand to stop him and said, "Don't chase after poor bandits, beware of traps."

After all, Zhao Yi looked at Liu Bi who had rushed over and said, "How is Your Majesty?"

"The imperial doctor has cured the injury, and now I have to return to Chang'an as soon as possible to recuperate."

Zhao Yi heard the words and said: "Then please ask Feng Yi County King to escort His Majesty back to Chang'an as soon as possible."

Hearing what Zhao Yi said, Feng Yijun Wang Yang Xiao nodded in agreement, but then he looked worriedly at the direction where the Turks were fleeing and said worriedly: "The Turks are full of tricks, I'm afraid they will make a comeback—"

Zhao Yi smiled when he heard the words, but he said quite firmly: "Don't worry, the king, Ashina Yudan will catch fire in the backyard, I'm afraid there is no chance."

……

With Zhao Yi's timely support, the siege of Yanmen was finally resolved. When Feng Yijun Wang Yang Xiao escorted Yang Chongyuan back to Chang'an, he quickly understood what Zhao Yi's firm words were.

It turned out that when Zhao Yi rushed to Yanmen, he ordered his confidant generals Li Shen and Li Wei to personally take [-] Qingqi to the Northland day and night, and attacked the Turkic Yecheng at night. This Yecheng is the origin of the Turks. This place is an important place for sacrificial offerings. Because of the surprise attack on Yang Chongyuan this time, Zhao Yi predicted that Ashina Yudan would take away most of the Turkic elite, and the Turkic people could only predict that they would support Yanmen, and they would never Thinking that they will attack the distant Yecheng, the guards of Yecheng must be empty.

Sure enough, when Li Shen and Li Wei hurried to Yecheng, they almost easily captured Yecheng with [-] Qingqi. The Turks not only returned without success this time, but also lost an important strategic point. land.

When the news came back to Chang'an, Yang Chongyuan had already returned to Chang'an. Although the battle was thrilling, under Zhao Yi's blitz, he achieved unexpected results.For this reason, the uneasy people's hearts were greatly lifted, and the court was full of praise and compliments, completely obliterating the original criticism.

At the same time, Dali Temple also found out that whether it was the palace change in Chang'an City or the siege of Yanmen, it was the sinner Yang Xingjian who colluded with the Turks. Even the person who shot the arrow at the emperor was also Yang Xingjian. A detailed work inserted in the army.

This incident shocked the government and the public, and the memorials demanding severe punishment for Yang Xingjian piled up like snowflakes.

However, in just seven days, Dali Temple found out the ten crimes of Yang Xingjian, and all the officials jointly signed a petition to submit to the emperor to execute him Ling Chi. In the blood and family relationship of the old King Xuan, Yang Xingjian was given to commit suicide and keep the whole body.

When Li Sui heard the news, she didn't take it seriously. She knew very well that Yang Chongyuan, who has always been ruthless, would care about Yang Zhiyuan's favor?It's just earning the name of Gu Nian's blood with a whole body.

After all, the words "mean and ungrateful" don't sound good.

In the blink of an eye, it was the New Year's Eve of this year, but Zhao Yi hadn't returned yet because he was dealing with the follow-up in Yanmen.

"Princess, are you really not going to the New Year's Eve banquet in the state?"

Hearing Nian Nu's question, Li Sui put down the scroll in his hand and said, "I'm lazy and flustered, I won't go."

"Then, let's have a feast by ourselves. There are a lot of your favorite food made in the small kitchen."

Niannu and Yunu knew very well that since King Yuling left, their princess has become more unhappy, and she is no longer as free and easy as before.

Seeing that Li Sui was still not interested, Nian Nu thought for a while and said: "Princess, today's New Year's Eve, why not sit around and cut the window grilles and talk."

Seeing the jump in Nian Nu's eyes and the anticipation in Yu Nu's eyes, Li Sui swallowed his rejection and nodded.

Seeing that Li Sui finally complied, Nian Nu hurriedly ordered everything to be prepared and brought over, and then summoned all the maidservants to sit around, chatting and laughing one by one, cutting out the ones she liked.

But in a short while, the house was full of excitement. Just as Li Sui was cutting the dragon and phoenix flowers, he heard an excited voice from outside the soft curtain: "Princess, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is back!"

Li Sui paused in his hands, and both Nian Nu and Yu Nu stood up happily, but the next moment Li Sui's eyes returned to calm, and he said "Yes" indifferently, and said, "Got it."

Seeing everyone in the room standing up, Li Sui raised his eyes and said, "What's the matter? Continue."

Just as everyone was looking at each other, a hesitant voice sounded from outside the curtain again: "Princess, I heard that the king is injured—"

As soon as these words came out, Li Sui couldn't help standing up, and before Nian Nu and Yu Nu could react, he saw Li Sui going out like a gust of wind.

"Princess, the cloak—"

Li Sui ignored Niannu's nervous voice, and when she opened the last soft curtain and walked down the corridor, she saw that familiar figure in the snowflakes, without even changing her armor. Just standing in front of her porch hesitantly, like a child who has returned home after doing something wrong.

At this moment, for some reason, Li Sui's eyes were filled with tears, but his lips still said coldly: "What are you doing standing here?"

Zhao Yi, who didn't know how to enter the house, saw Li Sui now, and felt relieved when he heard her voice.

"Aman, I miss you."

In an instant, Li Sui's hard heart was smashed into pieces of armor, and she couldn't help but threw herself into Zhao Yi's arms with a smile and tears.

"Aren't you disappointed in me?"

Hearing the pretended indifference in Li Sui's words, Zhao Yi lowered his eyelids, hugged Li Sui tightly, put his face against Li Sui's side greedily, and said in her ear: "I'm sorry, I couldn't accompany you through the past. During that difficult time, I failed to protect the person you wanted to protect with you, and it will not happen in the future, never again."

"The ones you protect with all your might are the ones I will protect with all my might."

Hearing Zhao Yi's promised words, Li Sui smiled and shed tears. No matter how hard his mouth was, he held Zhao Yi tightly in his hands to make up for the longing, guilt, and fear of these days——

The moment he left, she knew she had loved him to the bone.

And at the moment when he left, he also clearly knew that he couldn't do without her every moment.

"My armor is cold—"

"You are hurt?"

The two suddenly let go of their arms at the same time. When they heard each other's words, both Zhao Yi and Li Sui couldn't help but smile at each other.

"It's okay."

Seeing that Zhao Yi didn't care much, Li Sui frowned and pulled him into the room, "How can it be all right?"

After Niannu delivered the wound medicine, everyone retreated, Li Sui was about to take off Zhao Yi's clothes, but Zhao Yi held his hand and said: "You are inconvenient, I will do it myself."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yi took off his coats one by one. Under the candlelight, Li Sui clearly saw a bloody wound from Zhao Yi's shoulder blades to his chest. pain.

"Since the injury is so serious, it shouldn't be necessary to rush back day and night."

Seeing the blood overflowing from the wound again, Li Sui couldn't help complaining even though he knew who Zhao Yi rushed back despite the pain.

Zhao Yi didn't say a word, just sat there quietly watching Li Sui's drugged fingertips gently rubbing his wound, feeling the relief brought by the coolness.

"Does it hurt—"

Feeling the tense muscles in Zhao Yi's chest, Li Sui asked softly. Although Zhao Yi shook his head, he could see Zhao Yi's forbearance frowning when he looked up.

Seeing Li Sui lowering his eyelids silently, Zhao Yi said, "What's wrong?"

"I'm the one who hurts you and hurts you."

Hearing Li Sui's words, Zhao Yi understood her self-blame, and the next moment he stretched out his hand to hold Li Sui's hand that was applying medicine to him.

"It's never like this between you and me."

Li Sui moved his hand lightly, and the next moment he raised his head, the eyes of the two met, shining with strange light and affection under the light of the candlelight.

Emotionally moved, Li Sui gently embraced Zhao Yi's neck, and pressed his lips to Zhao Yi's lips tenderly. The moment they touched Zhao Yi's lips, Zhao Yi couldn't help but respond enthusiastically, as if he wanted to use this to tell the short story. The deep-seated thoughts of a few short months.

"Does it still hurt—"

Hearing Li Sui's panting question, Zhao Yi smiled and said hoarsely: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

The next moment, a more direct offensive blocked Li Sui's words between the two touching lips.

Unlimited tenderness.
