Chapter 72 The woman in red
Yue Fei led Bei Wei for a lap around Crescent Moon Bay, and then he rode back and sighed: "Outsiders only know Baitupo, but they don't know there is Crescent Moon Bay."

The strategic location of Crescent Bay is like a natural barrier. There is a situation where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. What's more, the most troublesome thing for Yue Fei is the two isolated peaks.

Although Yue Fei didn't take a closer look, but under the deafening roar of war horses and shouts of killing, not a single bird flew up, indicating that there was a hidden secret inside, and someone might have been ambushing inside, that's why it was so quiet.

Now that the spring grass is green, it is impossible to burn these two isolated peaks with one fire, but if these two vital points are not pulled out, once they go deep into the Crescent Bay, it will be like being caught in a pinch from two sides, and they will surely seek their own death.

"General, you are back! When will we send troops!"

Yuchi Jince immediately stepped forward and asked.

Yue Fei shook his head, and asked Yuchijin, "Is there any news about my lord and General Dianwei?"

Yuchijin replied: "General Dianwei is only ten miles away from us, but it's the Lord's side, and he hasn't come back yet."

"The whole army retreats five miles and joins General Dian Wei."

"retreat?"

Yuchi Jin looked at Yue Fei in surprise, he never expected that Yue Fei would order to retreat, and when he came, didn't he say he wanted a quick battle?
Yue Fei explained: "That's right, what happened suddenly, we know too little about the Hu people, we don't know the terrain of the mountains and rivers, and we don't know how many enemies are there. Unexpectedly, this Crescent Bay has ruined our strategy, so we can only plan slowly."

"Oh!"

Yuchijin responded, but stopped answering, turned around and walked back, and ordered his troops to move closer to Dianwei's troops.

Crescent Bay, Li Wenhou's tent.

"Li Qiu, I heard that you let the Han people slip away from your nose?"

Li Wenhou looked at Li Qiu seriously.

At this time, Li Qiu had already wrapped the white striped package on his left arm, and said with a deep expression: "My lord, the last general is incompetent, he failed to capture the enemy general alive, and even damaged hundreds of brothers, he is willing to be punished!"

"Humph!"

Li Wenhou snorted coldly, and shouted: "Killing you won't help. Remember, on this grassland, only us Hu people are the real hunters. They are all prey, understand!"

Li Qiu quickly replied: "The general will understand!"

Li Wenhou ordered in a loud voice: "Send the order, open your mouth, let the Han people enter Crescent Bay, and I will wipe them all out."

"As ordered!"

Li Qiu took orders and was about to turn around and leave when a centurion ran in and said, "My lord, the two cavalry of the Han people have joined up and are camping in place to build a camp."

"Oh?"

Marquis Li Wen was startled, thinking about his heart, he called Li Qiu to stop again, and ordered: "Tomorrow morning, lead the troops to the camp of the Han army. They are only allowed to lose, not to win."

Li Qiu suddenly understood, and bowed his hands to accept the order.

……

Dingxiang County, Shanwu County.

Inside the prefect's mansion, a hundred flowers are in full bloom, a magnificent scene, Zhen Tuo is playing and playing with Xiao Hong and Xiao Cui under the flowers, the girl's heart is bursting.

"Miss, I heard that a new shop opened recently in the city. The rouge and gouache in it are very precious, and the starting price is [-] yuan."

Xiao Cui said.

"fifty thousand!"

Xiaohong was taken aback, and muttered: "This is not Jizhou. Who would spend this money to buy it? The owner of this shop is strange."

Xiaocui said again: "That's true. In this city, except for the Zhao family in the west of the city, no one else would spend such a lot of money. However, it is said that the rouge powder is indeed rare. There are rumors that it is a palace thing. Can't compare."

Xiaohong smiled lightly and said: "I'm afraid you are tempted, deliberately fanning the lady's ear and asking the lady to help you, Xiaocui, you are really bad!"

"No, absolutely not, I just want Miss to dress up well, so that we can have a good idea when the lord returns in the future."

Xiao Cui sighed.

What these two said to each other really distracted Zhen Tuo a bit. As Zhao Feng continued to fight in all directions, there must be more and more women around him. As he grew older, what would he do? fight with them.

"There is nothing left and right, let's go and have a look."

Zhen Tuo said casually.

Xiaocui was overjoyed, and said quickly: "I'll let someone prepare the carriage."

"Ok!"

Zhen Tuo nodded, and then a group of people left the prefect's mansion and went to the Yanzhi shop in the south of the city. It was a large store, inserted in the downtown area of ​​the south of the city, and it felt like it stood out from the crowd.

"Miss, this is it!"

Xiaocui pointed to the plaque of Wang's shop and said.

Zhen Tuo lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a look, only to see that although the interior was exquisitely furnished, there were no customers.

"Come on, let's go in and have a look."

Zhen got out of the carriage and walked in, the guy inside hurried over and complimented: "Please come inside!"

"Go and take out the best rouge in your shop and show it to my lady."

Xiao Cui opened her mouth to order.

"okay!"

The clerk responded, then turned around and went into the back room. After a while, a man over forty years old came out and said with a smile on his face: "I am the owner of this shop, Wang Fu, the girl is really right." In other places, the rouge and gouache in my Wang's shop are all sold from the Chang'an area of ​​Luoyang, and they are absolutely genuine."

"Come on, let's take a look at the treasure of our shop first, the drunk peach blossom in March. This is an authentic palace product, and it's safe for everyone."

Zhen Tuo took a closer look, then held it in the palm of his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, a light fragrance instantly poured into the brain, making people feel calm and happy, indescribably comfortable.

"Boss, make an offer!"

Zhen Tuo put down the rouge box in his hand, and said softly.

Wang Fu stretched out five fingers, and said with a smile: "I see that the girl is kind-hearted, so I reluctantly parted with her and gave it to the girl at a low price."

Xiao Cui replied immediately: "My lady is not short of your money, it's just fifty thousand."

After finishing talking, Xiaocui wanted to go out to get money from the carriage, Wang Fu said with a smile: "I'm afraid this girl may have misunderstood it. She doesn't want five baht, but fifty taels of gold."

"what……"

Xiao Cui was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect that the rouge the size of a baby's fist would cost 50 taels of gold, which is a sky-high price.

"You're asking for a lot of money."

Xiaocui complained that it wasn't that she couldn't get 50 taels of gold, but that she was fighting against the master.

Wang Fu smiled at Zhen Tuo with a simple and honest face: "It's genuine, seeing that the girl is from everyone, I should take care of it."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhen Tuo's eyes, he shook his head, stood up and said, "Excuse me, Xiaohong, Xiaocui, let's go back."

Xiaocui hurriedly asked: "Miss, we don't want this rouge anymore?"

"No more!"

Zhen Tuo replied, and then said flatly: "Master doesn't like to put on makeup, so there's no need to waste this money, it's better to use it in the right place."

"But……"

Xiao Cui wanted to continue talking, but Zhen Tuo stopped her, with a bitter face, and then walked out.

Before Zhen Tuo boarded the carriage here, Wang Fu chased him out again, still smiling, and said, "Miss, go slowly, you forgot to bring something."

Wang Fu took out another box of rouge and handed it to Zhen Tuo respectfully.

Zhen Tuo opened it and said hastily, "This is the Drunken Peach Blossom in March. Boss, I'm afraid you are wrong. We didn't pay you."

Wang Fu said with a smile: "Young lady and my young lady hit it off, and my young lady is willing to give this box of rouge to the young lady."

"Your lady?"

Zhen Tuo and the others were startled at the same time, and looked inside, only to see a woman in a red robe smiling at them.

"I hope the girl stays, my lady invites you to go up to the attic!"

Wang Fu spoke again.

Zhen Tuo nodded slightly, and walked in again.
