Chapter 651 Home and Books

The gardenias and peonies planted in the courtyard have already bloomed, with a faint fragrance.

The osmanthus tree has not yet bloomed, and it will wait until September. Gao Mingyue told Li Xia that the osmanthus flowers will be more fragrant, and then they will make osmanthus cakes.

Li Xia looked at the flowers and trees along the way, and after passing through the courtyard gate, he saw four wives and concubines standing by the path.

A while ago, he was used to seeing the blood and fire on the battlefield, and now he feels more and more...beautiful girls are really pleasing to the eye.

The veil skirts swayed slightly, and they wrapped them around and talked.

Most of the time it was Han Qiaoer's voice.

"Brother Li is really back. Yesterday it was said that Hanzhong was at war, but I didn't feel it at all. Also, Sister Gao has... Ah, can you tell me?"

Gao Mingyue smiled and said, "I'll talk to him in private."

"..."

Talking and laughing, back to the hall, Li Xia washed up, changed clothes, and sat down to eat.

Han Qiaoer put her hands on her chin, very happy, and asked, "Brother Li, is he back from the battle?"

"That's not true, I just came back temporarily, and I have to go back to Longxi tonight." Li Xia pinched her mouth and said, "Don't pout, I'll be back in a few months, then it won't be so busy I will play with you more in the future."

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Han Qiaoer has a good memory and is closest to Li Xia, so she narrates all the major and minor events that have happened in Hanzhong recently, like an empty basket.

Afterwards, Tang An found out what was interesting, and dragged her and Nian'er down first, leaving Li Xia and Gao Mingyue to talk alone.

~~
"Four months?"

"Well, the clothes aren't too thick."

"let me see……"

Li Xia squatted down and put her face on Gao Mingyue's belly, feeling guilty.

"I'm afraid of having a baby because I'm afraid of this kind of time. You are pregnant, but I am away from home and don't care about it."

Gao Mingyue held his head tenderly, and said: "It's okay, there are many maids at home, Liu Niang and An'an are busy every day, and they take good care of me. You are the hero who calmed down the troubled times , don't worry about me..."

She whispered for a long time, trying to ease Li Xia's heart.

Li Xia squatted there for a long time, as if falling asleep.

It seemed to be feeling the blood he left behind in this world...

Finally, Gao Mingyue said softly: "If you squat again, your legs will go numb. You have to go tonight again. Go to sleep for a while, okay?"

"It's okay to sleep on horseback, a newly learned stunt. I was thinking just now, that is, these days, you can tolerate me like this."

Gao Mingyue didn't understand what he meant, and pulled Li Xia up, refusing to let him stick to her belly again.

Leaning in his arms, she asked, "Can you come back before the end of the year?"

"If you can subdue Liu Heima, it should be possible. Otherwise, with my strength, even if I can take the opportunity to win a few battles, it will be difficult to capture many cities in Guanzhong, or if I can't take them down, I won't be able to defend them. For a long time... I'm talking about the situation with you again. In short, this time is a rare opportunity, I have to grasp it, if I can win Guanzhong in one fell swoop, I will slowly accumulate in the next three to five years."

"I understand, take Guanzhong, let the people recuperate, and we... also recuperate." Gao Mingyue replied.

She consciously said a very powerful love story, quickly changed the subject, and asked: "Then you came back this time, did you make a trip in vain?"

"I won't run in vain." Li Xia refused to admit it, and said: "It's good to come back, understand the situation for yourself, and have a solid foundation in your heart, and then fight Liu Heima decisively, and you can stabilize him in terms of momentum."

"It's just too hard."

"The enemy invaded yesterday, did you get scared?"

"Actually, I had a long sleep and didn't get up until the afternoon." Gao Mingyue said, "Liu Niang came here on purpose and said it's all right, Mr. Wu has expected everything."

"That's good. When it comes to Wu Qian, I was caught and scolded by him just after I entered the city. It was nothing more than saying that I supported the current stupid emperor and told me not to be disobedient."

"What should I do?"

"It doesn't matter. I regain my homeland and live with the people. As long as I do the right thing, they will support me, and they will gradually find that it is a good thing to follow my way of thinking. This is righteousness. I said to the Beiren I want to fight for supremacy in the world, but I only tell the people in the south that I want to help the country. It seems that the people in the north can easily expose me, but they can't, because righteousness means living a good life, and they will gradually be on my side..."

Li Xia likes to talk to Gao Mingyue from the bottom of her heart, so she unconsciously said this, thinking that she was pregnant and tired of listening, so she stopped and said, "Anyway, it doesn't matter if Wu Qian scolds me."

"It's Mr. Wu who is willing to remind you, which shows that he values ​​you very much, and you shouldn't be angry with him."

"Well, don't talk about this, don't get tired."

"I won't be tired. The stomach is only so big. On the contrary, everyone cares too much and is careful. I feel a little embarrassed."

Li Xia smiled.

Gao Mingyue also laughed and asked, "Didn't the Wang family give you their daughter as a concubine?"

"The Wang family was uprooted, not only because Wang Shixian entered Sichuan with Kuodan back then, and it was useless, but also to deter other generations."

"Father said, let you go to the Dragon Palace of the Li family to offer sacrifices. There are several Li clan members in Longxi, and most of the Shatuo people claim to be descendants of Li Keyong. This matter should be very important."

"I understand, wait until I finish this battle." Li Xia said.

"If you finish the battle, Dad will go to Longxi to offer sacrifices in person. At that time, will you bring An'an and Nian'er with you?"

"Why?"

"In case other women take the opportunity to come in." Gao Mingyue said with a smile, "You have no one to take care of you in Longxi, and your body stinks."

"Does it stink?"

"Well, I don't despise you..."

The husband and wife talked one after another like this, Li Xia relaxed his mind, and gradually sorted out his next train of thought.

He had to go back to Longxi, because the elite troops were there, and he had to attack from Tianshui instead of Dasan Pass.

But in order to take Guanzhong, Liu Heima still has to be subdued, otherwise the cities will be attacked one after another, and Sichuan and Shu can't afford such a battle...

After staying here for half a day, news came that Shi Jun had sent someone to report the victory.Li Xia knew that he couldn't stay in Hanzhong for too long.

"By the way, can Mingyue write a surrender letter for me?"

"What kind of surrender letter?"

"I met an opponent, and I plan to learn from him this time. Before the war, the advance envoy occupies morality."

Gao Mingyue was a little lazy, and asked: "Can you ask An An to help you write? She is very good at diction."

~~
"I plan to send the captives to Chencang Road in more than ten days, and pass this letter of surrender to Lian Xixian. There are several purposes. One is to let him know that Liu Yuanli has been wiped out, and he thinks that I am in Hanzhong. By then I happened to send troops from Tianshui, and caught him off guard. Second, let the Guanzhong officials and gentry understand that my king's division entered Guanzhong and did not want the war to spread to the people, but Lian Xixian did not surrender. Third, let the officials in the north suspect Lian Xi. Xian and I have a friendship, which can be regarded as a estrangement..."

Tang An'an spread the brush and ink on the hall, persisted in the brush, listened carefully to Li Xia's words, and asked, "Doesn't Mr. Lang really want to recruit him?"

"I want to, but I'm talking too much, and he won't surrender, so he can only achieve these goals."

"Okay." Tang Anan asked again: "Is it in the name of Langjun, or in the name of Song Ting to recruit him?"

Li Xia said: "I didn't ask great talents like Wu Qian and Lu Xiufu to help write it."

"understood."

"Of course, don't make it too obvious, lest Lian Xixian turn around and frame me."

"it is good."

"For me, you help me draft it and turn it into a more powerful diction. As for the title at the beginning, you help me draft it."

Li Xia said, took a few steps, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Lian Xixian, you were born in Uighur, changed your surname to Han, studied Confucianism, and your talent spread in the north. You can also be said to care about the suffering of the people when you govern Guanzhong. His ability must be due to his great ambition..."

Tang Anan frowned slightly, writing quickly.

"Gong Yun's study of the state, development of talents for the world, peace of mind for the people, support of the people in Qin and Long, planning to win on behalf of others, calming the chaos in the capital and sea, those who have the means to found a country, must have great achievements and brilliant ambitions ..."

After Li Xia finished these few sentences, her tone gradually changed.

"With your talent and learning, if you can meet a wise emperor like Han Gaozu and Tang Taizong, and help him pacify the world and establish achievements, you can also become a famous figure like Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui, and be recorded in the history. , Praise from later generations. However, you have turned to Kublai Khan secretly.

Kublai Khan said that he wanted to practice Chinese law, but he couldn't even speak Chinese. He didn't really admire Sinology. The so-called "Ancestor's Modification" is just a name, and his hypocrisy is evident.He believes in Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, as if he believes in everything, but in fact he believes in nothing, and the only thing he seeks is his own power.

Compared with the founding kings of previous dynasties, he was only born as a grandson of Temujin, who took advantage of the tens of thousands of lives slaughtered by his ancestors to become powerful and wanted to steal the Central Plains.However, since he betrayed his clansmen, practiced the Chinese law but refused to be thorough, his thoughts were repeated, and he couldn't even tell who he was, how could he be called a master?I dare say that he doesn't really have the ambition to establish a brilliant career..."

At this point, Li Xia frowned, and confessed: "In this paragraph, you have to help me quote the scriptures and scold Song Ting with the momentum that Yao Shu wrote to me."

Tang An'an is a little girl, but she wants to write to scold the emperor of the Northland. She is worried that she will lose her momentum, but in short, she writes according to Li Xia's words.

Li Xia continued: "It can be foreseen that the dynasty you have tried your best to establish for Kublai Khan will not only not have the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but in future historical reviews, future generations will only think that it is not as good as the Song Dynasty, which only has half of the country.

No one will regard you as Xiao He or Zhang Liang.Your name, Lian Xixian, will remain unknown in the history books, and future generations will not know you, Lian Xixian, even if they know Jia Sidao who fights crickets.How many people know about your grand ambition in life?
From this point of view, you are a loser, a complete loser.Your talents are let down, your achievements are obliterated, and it should be.Because your aspirations are completely contrary to what you have done. "

Li Xia paused, and solemnly added another sentence.

"Here, I need to add another 'pity' and 'sorry'."

After a long time, Tang An'an's slender hands stopped and read back what he had written, feeling a little less imposing.

She thought for a while, and wrote down the words handed down by Ban Que more than [-] years ago...

"The capital of Yao, the land of Shun, and the land of Yu."

"There should be one and a half shameful ministers!"

"Thousands of miles are so fishy, ​​the eternal heroic spirit is still there, when will the majestic pass?"

"Why does Hu Yun need to ask? He Ri is among them!"

~~
Half a month later, to the north of Dasanguan, the Mongolian army tent.

"Has Zhongmin not arrived yet?"

Lian Xixian and Liu Heima were sitting opposite each other, both of them looked worried.

It was midsummer, Liu Heima was wearing thick armor, his forehead was already covered with sweat, and he replied in a deep voice: "It's time, no matter what, he should have reached the back of Dasan Pass."

Lian Xixian pinched his fingers, and the worry in his eyes became more and more intense.

The reason why he dared to send Liu Yuanli there was firstly because he was helpless, secondly because it was not the first time that the Mongolian army had penetrated into the enemy's territory like this, and thirdly because he thought that as long as he broke through the Dashan Pass, at least he would not lose troops...

However, up to now, Dasanguan has been unable to attack for a long time, and he has gradually realized that it is not good.

"If something goes wrong, I am ashamed of Mr. Liu."

Liu Heima's complexion changed, he closed his eyes, calmed down, waved his hands and said, "Perhaps Wulang was greedy for meritorious service and hit Hanzhong first..."

Lian Xixian was about to speak when he heard shouts from outside the tent.

"Report! Dasan Pass sent envoys to ask for a visit..."

Lian Xixian got up and went out of the tent. Looking around, someone was staggering towards this side, unarmored, with loose hair, looking embarrassed.

After that, Liu Heima also got out of the tent, and his expression changed dramatically.

He clearly saw that it was Xiao Quan, the lieutenant next to Liu Yuanli, who came.

And it seems that Xiao Quan was clearly captured by the Song army...
