Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 248 My Wife is a Big Boss

Shuangxiong closed, Yu Shan was watching from the tower.

In Tu Nu's camp, horses and horses came in and out without a break all day, Yu Shan frowned and said, "What kind of things are you going to transport, and you never sit idle for a moment?"

Bai Zihe said: "Naturally, it is transporting armaments. A [-] army is costly. One arrow per person costs [-]. The big battle is imminent, so we must speed up the transport."

Yu Shan shook his head and said, "Since transporting ordnance can be done with ordinary carriages, why are there so many vans?"

A box car is a carriage with a carriage, which is generally used to transport people.

Bai Zihe said: "Tu Nu must have sent a lot of reinforcements."

Yu Shan frowned and said, "Isn't one hundred thousand soldiers not enough?"

Bai Zihe sighed: "Tu Nu paid his blood, this battle may be quite tragic."

"How many troops do they have?" Yu Shan stretched his neck, wanting to stick his head into Tu Nu's camp.

"Why? You're scared!" Bai Zihe smiled, "When the big battle starts, just follow me closely, and I'll take care of you."

Yu Shan sneered and said, "What's the air? It's your first time going out, but you just fought a few more battles with General Cheqi."

Bai Zihe snorted: "After all, I have more knowledge than you."

"It would be great if Xu Zhiqiong was here. This guy is quick-witted and can sneak into the enemy camp to see what's going on."

"Xu Zhiqiong is not here, let's go find his wife, that girl covered in peach blossoms is quite capable."

Yu Shan smiled and said, "That person may not be his wife."

"Isn't the lady still so sticky?" Bai Zihe asked in surprise, "That day on Mount Xuyu, I saw them kissing me, and there was nothing on that Peach Blossom Girl that Xu Zhiqiong hadn't touched."

"There are too many women who are clingy to Xu Zhiqiong, that guy is not a good person, you must stay away from him in the future."

There was some jealousy in these words, Bai Zihe smiled and said, "Why? Are you afraid that I will run away with him?"

Yu Shan said seriously: "I'm kindly trying to persuade you, he's really not a good person!"

Bai Zihe sneered and said, "Are you a good person? I've heard that when you were in the capital, you married a wife. It is said that the woman has the appearance of overwhelming the country."

Yu Shan said angrily: "It's a rumor, I just made an appointment, and I called off the engagement without getting through."

Bai Zihe said with a playful smile, "Does this count as a messy beginning and an abandoned one?"

"There was no chaos at the beginning, so if there is no chaos, it is considered abandoned. Forget it, don't mention that woman again. When you mention her, you will feel full of resentment!"

Bai Zihe curled his lips and said, "To hate her is to miss her. After all, you still have her in your heart."

Yu Shan looked at Bai Zihe seriously: "Let me swear in front of you, if I have her in my heart, then call me..."

Bai Zihe gently blocked Yu Shan's mouth: "What are you doing? This is a battlefield, so don't dare to talk nonsense!"

While speaking, a group of chariots and horses left the Tunu camp, and Yu Shan's expression became more serious.

Bai Zihe said: "Don't panic, I heard that Elder Shengwei has dispatched [-] troops from Pingzhou, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also gone to Yuanzhou to dispatch troops."

"I always feel that something is wrong!" Yu Shan shook his head again and again, "But I can't tell what's wrong!"

……

Before Liang Jixiong led the army out of Pingzhou, a snowstorm blocked the journey.

This was the first snowfall in Pingzhou, the snow came so hard, the fine snowflakes sandwiched water droplets, instantly tore through the clothes, forcing the army to set up camp halfway.

When more than [-] people marched, an onmyoji set up a magic circle, and they were able to walk seventy or eighty miles with the camp overnight.

There are still more than [-] Onmyoji in the army, but this is an army of [-], and the magic circle is fully functioning, and they only traveled [-] miles overnight.

The next day, when the wind and snow did not stop, Liang Jixiong ordered to march. Fang Shichen said: "Elder, marching in such weather, I am afraid that the soldiers will catch the wind and cold. If the wind and cold spread in the barracks, the gain will not be worth the loss."

Liang Jixiong was very anxious. In the afternoon, when the wind and snow subsided, Liang Jixiong ordered to march again. After walking for a day, the ground was icy and slippery, and the soldiers marched slowly, but the soldiers were exhausted.

……

The crown prince talked for two days and two nights in Yuanzhou, and finally persuaded Chen Yunrui, the magistrate of Yuanzhou, to ask for [-] soldiers and leave immediately in the morning.

Chen Yunrui went out of the city to see him off: "Your Highness, don't blame me for being stingy. I have unspeakable reasons for stationing at the border."

The prince smiled and said: "Who blames you, I know your difficulties, it is really not easy to get [-] soldiers and horses."

Chen Yunrui nodded and said: "Your Highness is sympathetic to the suffering of this humble minister, and I am so grateful, Chen Beixuan, the eldest son of this humble minister, will be entrusted to His Highness!"

It's not that the prefect Chen didn't want to send troops, the frontier army really couldn't be easily mobilized, but seeing that the crown prince personally took command and fought to the death with Tu Nu, the prefect Chen made no ambiguity and ordered his eldest son Chen Beixuan to go out with the army.

Covered in military uniform, Chen Beixuan bid farewell to his father: "Father, wait for the child to triumph!"

Chen Yunrui nodded and said: "Even if there is one soldier in the army, you must not take half a step back in front of Tunu, don't insult the name of Yuanzhou, and live up to the prestige of Daxuan!"

Leaving Yuanzhou, the crown prince asked Chen Beixuan to lead troops to Luzhou, and he went to Xianzhou from the French formation to borrow troops.

With Chen Yunrui as an example, the magistrate of Xianzhou was also unambiguous, and immediately sent [-] troops, led by the famous general Ji Qi himself.

Ji Qi's identity is not simple, he has a fourth-rank military cultivation and is very famous in the Western Regions.

The crown prince stayed in Xianzhou for two days, and when Ji Qi prepared food, grass and weapons, the army set out immediately.

With an army of [-], according to Chu Xin's analysis, Tu Nu can be severely injured, making him dare not invade Daxuan within ten years.

Although it is a bit reconciled not to be able to fight Tunu's homeland, but at the time of the overthrow, being able to fight this battle to the point of desperation and rebirth is also considered a great victory to turn the tide!

During the march, the prince told Ji Qi about Chu Xin's analysis of the battle situation. He thought it would arouse the fighting spirit of the famous general, but he didn't expect Ji Qi to speak very carefully.

"Your Highness, the general has been in the Western Regions for a long time, dealing with the monster clan all day long. The monster clan uses troops treacherously. The general has suffered a lot and has become more cautious.
General Cheqi has experienced hundreds of battles, he dare not point fingers, I heard that General Cheqi has repeatedly won many with less in Yongzhou, I just hope that General Cheqi will not underestimate Tunu because of this. "

The prince was taken aback, is it possible for Chu Xin to make the mistake of underestimating the enemy?
Probably not, that is the famous chariot general!
But Chu Xin really looked down on Tu Nu.

……

A peach blossom rain fell, and Tao Huayuan appeared in Jasmine Village.

Liu Jiaqi stepped forward to welcome her with a face of joy: "Sister, you are finally here!"

Tao Huayuan pinched Liu Jiaqi's face: "Who is going to take over your cottage?"

Liu Jiaqi said: "One is called Zangdao Juzi Zhang Shen, and the other is called Xiaochi Bafang Yuan Weiji. I heard that they are both famous mountain kings in Yongzhou!"

"Zangdao Juzi?" Tao Huayuan frowned, "Is this man named Zhang Shen a Confucian cultivator?"

Liu Jiaqi thought for a moment and said: "From the looks of it, the person who speaks is polite, it should be Confucianism!"

"What's the origin of that Yuan Weiji?"

"I don't know why, but I know that this man loves to laugh, always smiles, and especially loves to eat chicken. When he came to my cottage, he always held the roast chicken in his hand."

"Are the two of them going to join forces to occupy your cottage?"

Liu Jiaqi thought for a while and said, "They came on the same day, so I don't know if they want to join forces."

"That's it?" Tao Huayuan frowned.

Liu Jiaqi nodded and said, "I just met them once, and that's all I know."

Tao Huayuan said: "Bring the board, let me beat you up, beat you like a peach blossom!"

Liu Jiaqi was surprised: "Why did you hit me?"

"Two strongmen want to rob your cottage, you don't know anything about them, but what's the difference between being slaughtered by your neck?"

Liu Jiaqi was not convinced and said: "I have planned it. My place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. I also set up a bow tower according to what my sister said. Anyway, I have a lot of people, so I just have to fight with them."

"How to beat them? Let these old and weak women and children bring rolling pins to beat them? You can figure it out!"

"If you can't fight, then discuss it with them. I'll invite them to come to the cottage for a meeting. It will be tomorrow. I'm afraid that I don't understand the rules of Taoism and say something wrong, so I ask my sister to come and guide me."

"Are the two of them coming together?"

Liu Jiaqi nodded and said, "It's agreed, we will come at night!"

"If there was any collusion in advance, let me meet these two great village masters."

……

At nightfall the next day, Zhang Shen, a Tibetan knife master, and Yuan Weiji, who laughed and ate Bafang, arrived as scheduled.

Zhang Shen was wearing a Confucian crown and a Confucian robe. He was about thirty, with a gentle manner, and he didn't look like a reckless man.

Laughing and eating all directions Yuan Weiji is just like his nickname, he always has a smile on his face, but he can't tell whether the smile is real or not.

Tao Huayuan hid the yin and yang aura on her body with medicine powder, and together with Liu Jiaqi invited Zhang Shen and Yuan Weiji into the cottage.

The two of them each brought more than a dozen followers into the village. Their daring to come in proved that they didn't take Jasmine Village seriously at all.

Liu Jiaqi chose a fairly spacious wooden house to entertain the two of them, and the host and guest were seated. Seeing Tao Huayuan sitting next to Liu Jiaqi, Zhang Shen asked, "I don't know what the girl's name is?"

Liu Jiaqi said: "This is my sister! The famous hero is the real leader of my Jasmine village!"

Tao Huayuan shook her head and said: "Don't listen to her teasing, my name is Tao Qiongqi, Village Master Liu is my righteous sister, Yongzhou is constantly fighting, I am a weak woman who has nowhere to make a living, I heard that my righteous sister has fallen, so I came to join her. "

Yuan Weiji smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you are a righteous sister or a righteous sister, let's talk about who is in charge of the two of you?"

Tao Huayuan said: "The person in charge is naturally my sister."

"Let's say she is the head of the house, we came all night and didn't eat any food, so we stopped talking to you. We have taken a fancy to your place. If it makes sense today, we will settle the matter. From now on, I will count this place as Yuan If you can't agree on a branch under a certain person, tomorrow we will go to war!"

Tao Huayuan looked at Zhang Shen and asked, "Is this what Zhang Zhaizhu wants?"

It was freezing cold, Zhang Shen opened the folding fan and fanned it twice.

This is not heat, but the demeanor of a Confucian.

"Master Liu, Miss Tao, Zhang did not come here this time to occupy your village, but for the people in Jasmine Village.

Forgive me, the head of Village Liu doesn't understand military affairs, and the village of Jasmine is very fragile. If it falls into the hands of thieves, the people here will be in trouble. "

Tao Huayuan said: "If Jasmine Village falls into the hands of Zhang Juren, can the lives of the people be saved?"

"One word from a gentleman, one quick whip, and since Zhang agrees, the people here will live in peace and security under Zhang's name!"

Yuan Weiji sneered when he heard the words: "What kind of gentleman are you talking about? Could it be that you are not a thief?"

Zhang Shen said coldly: "After all, there is some difference with you and other grassroots!"

Tao Huayuan said: "This is embarrassing for our sisters. Which village leader should we follow in Jasmine Village?"

Yuan Weiji smiled and said: "Little pump girl, don't make such a estrangement! I have my own differences with Zhang Zhaizhu. Today I just ask you, would you like to join us? If you don't want to, we will fight tomorrow. Empty stomach, let's not waste our tongue here!"

Tao Huayuan smiled and said, "It's my fault that our sisters didn't greet well, sister, haven't we prepared the food and drink?"

Liu Jiaqi ordered the dishes to be served. There were not many ingredients in the cottage, so Tao Huayuan prepared a few simple dishes. Tao Huayuan raised her glass and said, "Little sister, I would like to offer a cup to the two village owners first!"

Zhang Shen picked up the wine glass, smelled it, and then drank it down in one gulp. After a long time in the rivers and lakes, ordinary poisons can't fool his nose.

Yuan Weiji was more cautious, and ordered his subordinates to bring the wine bag: "I will bring the wine, so I won't take advantage of you!"

After drinking a glass of wine, Yuan Weiji asked someone to bring another chicken, hugged it in his arms, and gnawed it. He didn't move a bite of the food and wine prepared by Liu Jiaqi.

This is a real quack.

He really loves to eat chicken. Every time he tore off a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, he chewed it happily.

Tao Huayuan was fascinated by watching, and Yuan Weiji smiled and said, "Little pump girl, why are you so hungry? If you don't mind, I'll share some with you?"

After speaking, he handed the roast chicken to Tao Huayuan.

Tao Huayuan smiled: "Little sister is really greedy."

After finishing speaking, she tore off a chicken leg, tasted it, and exclaimed, "This taste is really unusual!"

Yuan Weiji smiled and said: "I also ate the meat and drank the wine. If the two girls have figured it out, please tell me!"

Tao Huayuan sighed, "The Jasmine Village is my adopted sister's family business, so I don't want to hand it over to others."

Zhang Shen frowned and said, "Girl, think twice!"

"Why do you think twice?" Yuan Weiji swallowed a mouthful of chicken, wiped his mouth and said, "Since I don't agree, let's wait for tomorrow's battle!"

After speaking, Yuan Weiji got up to leave.

Tao Huayuan said: "Two village masters, please wait for a while, my righteous sister's foundation here is not stable, and there is a shortage of major generals under my command, if I fight fiercely with the two village masters, my chances of winning are slim."

Yuan Weiji smiled and nodded; "If you know you're not good enough, don't pretend to be a hero. What are you talking about? You have no chance of winning?"

Zhang Shen took the folding fan and said: "Zhang doesn't want to rely on the strong to bully the weak, so the two girls choose a strong general from the cottage, and Zhang will fight alone with him, so as to see the difference, I don't know what the two of you think how?"

When the voice fell to the ground, a surge of righteousness struck.

This is Zhang Shen showing his strength. He is indeed a Confucian cultivator with a sixth-rank cultivation. He is telling Tao Huayuan that even if he fights alone, no one in Jasmine Village can match him.

Tao Huayuan sighed: "Zhang Juren is so kind, Jasmine Village is willing to listen to Zhang Juren's orders from now on!"

"Wait a minute!" Yuan Weiji frowned, "You are the only one who can fight. Could it be that Yuan is a vegetarian?"

A burst of murderous aura struck, Yuan Weiji had the cultivation of the way of killing, looking at the aura, he seemed to be on equal terms with Zhang Shen.

Zhang Shen nodded and said: "Forget it, let's fight it out here tonight, so as to save troubles in the future."

Yuan Weiji shook his head and said: "Brother Zhang, it's okay to decide the outcome, but it's not here. Let's find another time, another place, and we can discuss it. Let's not do anything, lest others will reap the benefits."

This is really a man in the green forest, but he is much more cautious than Zhang Shen.

Zhang Shen nodded and said, "Alright, since the matter of Jasmine Village is settled, the rest is up to you and me. Master Yuan, let's talk in another place, please!"

"Master Zhang, invite you first!" Yuan Weiji was worried that Zhang Shen would sneak up on him from behind.

Zhang Shen smiled, took a step ahead with his subordinates, and walked to the door, suddenly felt his feet sink, and a few peach petals slowly fell from his eyes.

There is a yin and yang magic circle!
Tao Huayuan had prepared the yin-yang magic circle long ago, and it took so much trouble to test the cultivation of the two of them.

Zhang Shen was careless and stepped on the magic circle, but he didn't panic. He is of the same rank as Confucianism to overcome Yin and Yang, and he still has the skill of innocence.

But he didn't expect that his innocent skills couldn't dispel Tao Huayuan's magic circle, they were not of the same rank.

Tao Huayuan's cultivation was higher than his, and she was good at magic circles.

It doesn't make sense, this woman has such a high level of cultivation, how could she appear in a place like Jasmine Village?
The petals fluttered towards the mouth and nose, Zhang Shen rolled his eyes and passed out.

More than a dozen followers under him stepped forward to rescue him, but they all fell into a peach blossom formation and fell down with Zhang Shen.

Yuan Weiji looked at it sincerely, and said with a sneer: "What a vicious woman, judging by your methods, your cultivation level is not low!"

With a wave of his hand, his men drew their swords and prepared for battle.

Tao Huayuan sighed, "Master Yuan, save your energy, you are poisoned."

Yuan Weiji smiled and said: "Little pump girl, I have been extra careful, I didn't eat a single bite of the food and wine you prepared."

"It doesn't matter if you eat it. There is no poison in the food and wine. When I pulled the chicken leg, I smeared the poison on the chicken."

Yuan Weiji put the roast chicken in his hand aside: "Little pump girl, do you think you can fool me with two lies?"

Tao Huayuan smiled and said, "Just treat it as me lying to you, Village Master Yuan, please!"

Yuan Weiji put away his smile, and said with a drink, "I'm leaving now, let's see who of you can stop me."

He walked towards the door, but Tao Huayuan didn't stop him.

Two steps away from the door, Yuan Weiji's body softened and he fell to the ground.

Tao Huayuan raised her sword eyebrows, and said with a drink, "Come to my village, and leave if you want? Tie me up!"
