Qingchuan History

Chapter 899
It was just taken over, and there was no time to plan fortifications. The garrison of the new northern border still followed the regulations of the Wei Kingdom.Guard Jiang Chao, formerly Ji Qi's colleague and friend in the riding camp, was one of Chunfeng's opponents when Chunfeng participated in the spring competition. 【1】

"It's you." Gu Xinglang looked at Jiang Chao after being bowed down by the soldiers.

"Yes!" Jiang Chao was very excited when he saw that the lord had quite an impression of him, "General Qi said that the northern border has just expanded, and many matters still need to be decided by the lord, and he will lead 5000 people to be stationed here at the end of the day!"

"Qi Guang is in the old northern territory right now?"

"Yes! The general is stationed in Huama Town!"

"When was the last call-off? How much?"

"Return to Your Majesty, seven days ago, with the addition of five thousand from the headquarters, there are still nearly forty thousand available!"

The meaning of the word available is to exclude seriously injured soldiers.

Gu Xinglang nodded, "Immediately send an order to call [-]. You must be elite." After a short pause, he asked again:
"Can you receive Jidu Xinbao, or any news or instructions?"

In extreme times, unless Ji has big news that spreads throughout Qingchuan, with Jiang Chao's official rank, he won't get any reports, let alone orders.

So this is a question that sounds simple, but can judge the general situation based on the answer.

Jiang Chao's expression changed slightly, he backed away from the left and right, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the rumors are just rumors." That look, the eyebrows were mouse-eyed, "Ji has closed the gates of the city, and it hasn't been opened for several days."

Ruan Zhong has already said this, so most of it is true.And Ruan Zhong's news was better than that of Jiang Chao, who was a little younger—in other words, there was no bigger news, even if there was, at least it didn't reach the ears of most soldiers in the northern border.

"Understood. Let Qi Guang personally lead the troops."

Jiang Chao took the order and was about to deliver the order. He responded that he had to resettle Junshang's family, so he just turned around and turned back.

"I remember that there is a small town nearby—" Gu Xinglang knew what he was thinking, and was about to talk about it.

"Rose Town."

Gu Xinglang was stunned, he didn't remember that town had such a pretentious name, and he felt that Jiang Chao must be blind when he blurted it out. "There is a two-story inn in the town, and the food is not bad—" he continued to describe.

"Rose Inn." He was picked up by Jiang Chao again, and then he responded that he had intercepted the Lord's words twice, "The last general will overstep! Please punish me!"

Gu Xinglang felt a little more reliable, but he was still not sure and asked, "Have you always been called this name?"

"Mr. Mingjian!" Jiang Chao laughed, "Because you stayed with Mr. Wei and the concubine and princess that winter, the inn is already famous; and because you put the New Year's roses in rows on the roof, Therefore, from the inn to the town, everything was renamed accordingly. So when the king mentioned it, the general guessed it was it."

Gu Xinglang had no idea that there was such a story, and his dark clues all over Qingchuan had always only collected "business matters", so it was impossible for him to report such "small matters".

I have mixed feelings for a while, and I can't reply for a long time.On the contrary, Jiang Chao was clever, and hurriedly said: "Let's arrange it now!"

After entering Qi Realm, Ruan Xueyin went to Cangwu wholeheartedly.Gu Xinglang was able to receive Xiu Luan's secret letter a few hours ago, which means that Shangguan Yan started several hours before that. After such a long time, there should be results, right?
Last night Gu Xinglang asked her to guess, who will be waiting for her when she arrives in the north, isn't that what she meant?
She really hoped to wait for someone—it meant that the winning party would let the losing party go, and no matter how bad it was, the losing party would be able to escape—after all, no one would die, and Jing Ting Ge would not be too sad.

And once the loser escapes, he can only flee south and enter the Qi Realm to be able to be comprehensive.

She fully thought that Gu Xinglang would go directly to the new border between the two countries and wait there.

But waiting for news from the inn.

"Send Chao Chao off? You and I—"

"I sent someone to keep an eye on it, and I will report it immediately if there is any movement." Gu Xinglang saw her thin and pale, which was very obvious in the morning light, and his heart ached, "Go back and get some rest, eat something, and sleep again -"

"Where did all this time come from?" Ruan Xueyin frowned.

"I said yes. It's better to have." Gu Xinglang said softly, but his expression was serious, "I really came at this moment, I'm not ready."

Ruan Xueyin woke up, "Are you dispatching troops?"

Seeing her frown, Gu Xinglang reassured her, "Don't think too much. There are only 5000 people here, which is too small. I have to arrange more to keep my daughter safe."

Everyone in the world knows that Gu Xinglang is cautious, but Ruan Xueyin knows that all those who can achieve success are more or less gamblers, and he is no exception.

Jidu may have fallen, and he should have rushed back to Annei—but he had already arrived in the northern border, and there was a drastic change in Cangwu. How about a quick decision to complete the unification?

As soon as this thought came out, she felt a chill down her spine.It must have been a slight shiver, but when Gu Xinglang noticed it, he stretched out his arms and hugged him, "Is it cold? This is in June. Did it catch the wind last night?"

Ruan Xueyin stopped thinking when she reached the entrance of the inn.

When she entered the town, she noticed that it was a revisit of the old place, and the old place had become a bit gaudy and no longer simple and simple.Although she was emotional, after all, her heart was heavy, so she didn't think too much about it.But the inn in front of me - the simplicity is still there, but it has been superimposed, not only the word "rose" on the plaque is out of place, but also the decoration is redundant and even gaudy.

"Changed the club?" The brows that were already frowning frowned.

Gu Xinglang smiled but didn't say a word, he led her into the courtyard and turned around to look around.

Ruan Xueyin followed his gaze and saw the entire row of potted roses on the roof.

It is in the flowering period, red, purple, yellow and white powder, extremely bright in the midsummer morning light.

"It's really still there." He sighed.

"You knew earlier?" She was stunned.

"I just heard about it. I want to surprise you."

"Scare me." Ruan Xueyin looked at the furnishings in the courtyard again, they were even more gaudy than the front door.

"But the rose is still yesterday's rose." Gu Xinglang smiled, "It's outstanding, and it overshadows all the vulgarities."

Ruan Xueyin focused on this sentence, then turned her head and saw the corridor not far away.

On that night, they stood in a row under the porch and made a wish to the roses.

Ruan Zhong was the only person who bought New Year's Eve roses on the Ning'an Glacier that year.

He is still not here.He has been obsessed with half his life, mixed with ambition and affection, and has paid a lot for her, but the time spent with her is very little - only the days and nights of curing diseases and detoxification are for memories.

Seeing her in a daze, Gu Xinglang guessed, "I sent another team to the west to meet him, or to rescue him. Don't worry, he has a great favor for me this time, and I will do my best to protect him."

Ruan Xueyin forced a smile, "Thank you."

Gu Xinglang frowned slightly, "It's just you, after five years, I still have to thank my husband."

"Not five years." Ruan Xueyin revealed it with a smile.Counting from December of the sixth year of Jinghong, it has only been three and a half years.

"It starts from when you enter the palace." Gu Xinglang was serious, "Everything will be different when you come."

Ruan Xueyin didn't refute anymore.

"No thanks in the future."

"it is good."

At this time, Chao Chao was carried in by Yunxi, calling her parents in a childish voice.Gu Xinglang hurried to pick him up, and ordered Xia Yaoniu to be escorted into the inn and sent to a room in the northwest corner of the second floor.

It was that year, according to the year and night, where Shengjun lived with her mother and daughter, and for her, it was also a revisit of the old place.

"Are you saying it's strange? Some things are tightly linked because of everyone's planning. Others," Gu Xinglang walked in with the child in his arms.

"But it's God's will. For example, if you return to this town and enter this inn again, you will still be the same group of people." Ruan Xueyin continued.

Will Jing Ting Ge come again, and who will he bring with him?

Gu Xinglang's eyes were piercing, but he smiled when he heard the words, "I hope. I hope everyone will seek benevolence and benevolence."

The room of the three of them is also on the second floor, Zhengbei Dawu, where everyone kept watch and pushed dominoes together.

She was dressed up in a particularly gorgeous way, and she was also named Longyinju.

"Because you and Murong were here and talked?" That's why it's called Longyin.

"Don't. It's as if I live in this room with him." Gu Xinglang carried his daughter around to look around, pointing at the peach blossoms on the window paper, but it was still the same one from previous years, even the position of the card table under the window was different. Unchanged.

Meals arrived quickly, piping hot and mouth watering.Yunxi entered the house to feed Chao Chao, and was told to eat, drink and rest by herself.Ruan Xueyin rolled up her sleeves and took good care of her daughter. Gu Xinglang couldn't see her not eating for a long time, so the scene became:

Ruan Xueyin feeds her daughter, and Gu Xinglang feeds Ruan Xueyin.

Chao Zhao was amused by this scene, as if he had comprehended a certain pattern, he grabbed a piece of cake and handed it to Gu Xinglang, "Daddy, eat!"

The young parents couldn't help laughing. "At such a young age, I already know that everything is intertwined! In the future, people in the world will not be frightened!"

But Ruan Xueyin was worried by what he said, "I don't know if there will be an equally frightening young man who can be matched."

Gu Xinglang suddenly became serious, "Then you really have to choose carefully." After finishing speaking, he was afraid that there would be none, so he said calmly: "There will be talented people from generation to generation! There will always be a few in each generation, so why worry about it."

In the hearts of parents, they probably agree that their children will become talented and outstanding, and they are afraid that they will not be able to find a spouse in the future.

No news report after dinner, Zhao Chao began to droop her small eyelids, because she was sleepy.Gu Xinglang and Ruan Xueyin then cleaned up and took their children to bed for an afternoon nap, one inside and one outside, with the daughter lying in the middle.

Both of them faced her, and each made up the same story sentence by sentence.Chao Zhao didn't hear a few words, and fell into a deep sleep.This child was born happy, but never sleepy, but Ah Yan was quiet and sensible, and often cried when he was about to sleep.

I don't know if there is still trouble recently, whether eating and sleeping are all right.At the same time, the two began to miss A Yan, and raised them by their side since childhood, no different from their own daughter.

The bright sunshine of the northern country pours into the whole row of high windows.

They fell asleep one after another in this rare silence and dizzying light and shadow.

As the bright sun draws near and dusk approaches, there is a knock on the door.

Light but hurried, Ruan Xueyin opened her eyes first.

She pushed Gu Xinglang, and Gu Xinglang's feet touched the ground before he woke up.

His head hurt a little, he rubbed his temples and went to the door.

"Your Majesty, here we come!"

Ruan Xueyin heard it clearly, then sat up and waited for the next sentence.

But there was no more to say, only the rustling sound, it was Gu Xinglang changing clothes.

She hurried out of the bed tent.

"What about my daughter?" Gu Xinglang turned around and saw that she was fully dressed.

It was a question, but it was actually a hindrance, implying that she and Chao Chao would stay at the inn.

"You know I must go."

Gu Xinglang sighed, "I won't—"

"I know you won't. The goals are the same, so I'm here to help. With me, it's easier to achieve."

The same goal means: to win, or to pave the way for future victories, but without hurting the lives of those who matter.

And the difference between Ruan Xueyin's presence and absence is indeed very big.

"Go with Chao Chao." She didn't want to waste time, and said again, "My daughter has gone through the storm when she came out with us this time. A girl who will make people fearful in the future should experience it."

The carriage left Rose Town and headed north.The smoke and dust flew into the twilight, and the wheels pressed deep marks on the ground.

The two teams, going south and north, arrived at the border almost at the same time.The car hadn't come to a complete stop yet, and Jing Tingge's call came:
"Xiaoxue! Ruan Xueyin!"

His voice was anxious, but his breath was full. It can be seen that if something happened again, it would not be her accident.

Ruan Xueyin let go of half her heart, and immediately realized that Shangguan Yan was injured, she lifted the curtain and jumped down, only to see Murong Xun with a dark complexion.

"Come here yet!" Seeing that she hadn't moved, Jing Tingge urged.

This is the border between the two countries, Ruan Xueyin is the queen of one country, so one has to be extra cautious when taking a step.

"Mr. Jing has a request from His Highness, since Mr. Yi came here." Gu Xinglang in Jiang Chaode's car signaled and said loudly.

Whether Empress Qi enters Wei or Jun Wei enters Qi is a difficult problem, and the choice of Jing Tingge will also explain some problems.

"I can't move him alone," Jing Tingge only thought for a moment, "Bring four more people over, Mr. Qi will not refuse."

"Yes!" Jiang Chao had to signal again, and replied loudly.

Murong Xun was quickly carried to Ruan Xueyin.

"It's called Fanghua Temple. The Shangguan concubine can't understand it, and the Imperial Medical Bureau can't do anything. I always remember the teacher mentioned it, and I have an impression of the name. If you need anything, I have it in the car. I brought all the flowers and plants in Shenduyuan. Shangguan Banquet He is still alive, you treat him first, and I will tell you slowly."

Jing Ting's song was fluent, and he explained it in one breath, and asked Ruan Xueyin directly.

"But how can she treat him?" Gu Xinglang got out of the car just now, with a relaxed attitude.

Ruan Xueyin has already touched Murong Xun's wrist, Jing Tingge raised her eyebrows, "What does Mr. Qi mean?"

"The war in the northern border is over, and the troops of the state of Wei have killed countless generals and soldiers of the state of Qi. Why should the central palace of the state of Qi want to save the emperor of the state of Wei? We are in a different place. If it is me who is dying at this time, Mr. Jing , can you help me?"

Jing Tingge's face was paler than Ruan Xueyin's, and it matched the smoky purple skirt and shirt, giving it a kind of tumultuous beauty.

Through the gray twilight, she looked at Gu Xinglang for a moment.

"If Mr. Qi is still Mr. Qi, I won't save him." He spoke again, speaking very slowly but loudly.

This is the truth, very much in line with her style, and slightly weird.

"But if you are just my brother-in-law, I will save you. My brother-in-law knows about me, and the interests come first. If there are no advantages or disadvantages, I can also sympathize."

Gu Xinglang's heart twitched slightly, "So the meaning of Mr.—"

"He is no longer the emperor of the Wei Kingdom. Can't your Majesty see it?" Jing Tingge looked back at the team behind him, there were only a few dozen people, "Your salt and iron envoys have won, and the Wei Kingdom will establish a new system, promote new policies, A new generation is ushering in, and he and I will bring Ah Yan back to Pengxi Mountain."

Ruan Xueyin, who had been so calm for years, was also shocked.Even though both sides may lose, in all fairness, she and Gu Xinglang both think that Shangguan Yan is more likely to lose.

She paused for diagnosis and looked up.

Jing Tingge looked at her, "Now he is only your brother-in-law. Please help me, sister."
