Madam, she always wants to run away

Chapter 54
No one expected that before Xuanping Hou's Mansion and Duan's family had finished the three media and six employments, the happy event was forced to be shelved-more than a dozen urgent military reports from eight hundred miles came from the frontier one after another. Ling's old enemy, the Kingdom of Jin that Da Ling once defeated with all his might, has invaded again!

The fierce battle between Da Ling and Da Jin more than ten years ago is still vivid to many people. It was this war that caused Li Ying's grandfather and two uncles to die in battle.

However, the peace that countless Daling soldiers exchanged their lives for was broken again when the new emperor of Daling was not even sitting in the dragon chair.

The imperial court felt as if it was facing a formidable enemy.All of a sudden, the crusade against Duke Zhen's eldest son, Zhang Zhi, who was not effective in defending the frontier, became very popular. Some people even accused Duke Zhen of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. ?This is simply a disgrace to the country!

Zhen Guogong couldn't argue with his mouth, so he had no choice but to take the blame and resign. How could the eight-year-old new emperor who had just ascended the throne have any ideas?When the court was arguing, Xiao Lian stood up.

"Everyone, let me say something." Xiao Lian's voice was not angry but arrogant, and the noisy court gradually quieted down.

"This king has stayed in the frontier for ten years, and I can say with certainty that the Kingdom of Jin did not come back to life overnight.

Everyone is far away in the capital, do you know how many times my frontier soldiers have resisted the harassment of Dajin and escaped their sneak attacks?You don't know, you all think that the frontier is peaceful, and you don't pay attention to the occasional military newspapers.

In the past few years, when the Dajin Kingdom is recuperating, recruiting troops, and preparing for the invasion of our Daling land, what are you doing?You are still complacent about the victory more than ten years ago, lying on the credit book and not thinking about making progress, you are still fighting for the reduction of tens of thousands of taels of military expenditure, and you are still trapped in the intriguing struggle between court and court!
Now that the frontier is in crisis, are you going to put all the blame on one general?I, Xiao Lian, were the first to disagree!

If there is a talent like General Zhang, it is my loss to Da Ling. Besides, my frontier soldiers have worked hard to defend the frontier for more than ten years. Now something happened, but they should bear all the blame?There is no such reason in the world!
Ladies and gentlemen, now that the former emperor has passed away and the new emperor is still young, if I am a general of the Great Jin, if I don't fight now, when will I wait?But this does not mean that Da Jin really has the strength to compete with Da Ling, let alone we should not be frightened by Da Jin's surprise attack and belittle ourselves. This king is still full of confidence in Da Ling's soldiers.

In the face of internal and external troubles, arguing about who is right and who is wrong at this time will not take back a city and a pool for Daling. We should work together to discuss strategies to deal with foreign enemies. "

Xiao Lian's impassioned statement, suppressed first and then exalted, was well-founded, and shut up the chattering courtiers.

Originally, they would not be happy when they heard these words, but whoever said it was Xiao Lian, he was a man who had been in the frontier for ten years.

"My lord is right. The most urgent task is to replace Zhang Zhi, choose a suitable candidate, and go to the frontier to take back our land in Daling!" Those who spoke were the civil servants of the former eldest prince's faction, and they managed to grab Duke Zhen's braid. , can not be easily let go.

Other civil servants echoed.

The new emperor raised his hand to signal them not to entangle this matter any more, and he said in a childish voice, pretending to be old: "Prince Zhong is right, General Zhang is wrong, but he has guarded the frontier for several years, and now it is a critical situation." At this juncture, don't cross the river and demolish the bridge, which chills the hearts of all frontier soldiers.

What I mean is to remove General Zhang Zhi from his position and order him to perform crimes and meritorious deeds. As for the new general, Prince Zhong, you are the only one who can take on this important task.

I am currently serving you as the Great General of Hussars, entrusting you with a heavy responsibility. I order you to take back the territory and make me great! "

The new emperor suddenly appointed Xiao Lian as the General of Hussars in the court, which was very unexpected, and even Xiao Lian himself did not get word of it.

Xiao Lian had made great achievements in water control before, and he had already stole a lot of limelight. If he were to go to the frontier at this time, if he really defeated Dajin, wouldn't his achievements be overwhelming?With this in mind, several courtiers who were already at odds with Xiao Lian kept silent and silently protested the emperor's decision.

"What?" The new emperor was still young and was not good at hiding his emotions. He said unhappily, "Is there any more suitable candidate besides Prince Zhong?"

Those courtiers buried their heads and remained silent again.

The new emperor snorted and said, "Since there is no such thing, then it is settled."

Xiao Lian came out and said loudly: "I will never give up if I die."

Yes, when he learned of the crimes committed by the first emperor and what Xiao Chun and Xiao Ling had done, he was really disappointed in Da Ling's royal family.But apart from them, Daling also has the imperial grandmother, the new emperor who needs to be guided when he is young, and the princess who is not familiar with the world... More importantly, Daling has thousands of people, including him. My favorite Yingying.

So he can't give up the royal family, the people, or the whole Daling.

Where the Tao is, even if thousands of people oppose it, I will go there.Even if some people don't understand, and some people doubt his intentions behind his back, he will fight to the end for Da Ling!
In this way, Xiao Lian took up the important task of Hushi General in the midst of controversy.

The soldiers on the frontier suffered a lot due to this raid by Dajin. Counting the less than [-] troops brought back by Zhang Jun, if they want to fight quickly and avoid a protracted war with Dajin, they must have an absolute number of people. Advantage.

Therefore, conscription was imminent, and Da Ling quickly issued a decree that all men who had reached the age of fifteen and were in good health must apply for the conscription.

As soon as this order came out, several families were really happy and some were sad.For young men who want to serve the country, this match against Daikin is naturally a great opportunity, but for Li Xuan, it was a bolt from the blue. The government order cried out.

"Brother-in-law, why is it 15 years old? Can you change it?"

Tomorrow is the day for the expedition. Today, Xiao Lian and Li Ying are at the family banquet of the Li family. At the dinner table, Li Xuan asked with a mournful face.

Xiao Lian smiled and said, "Of course it's because you can't resort to military action. You are the future pillars of Da Ling, so how can you go into battle easily?"

"I can't go this time, who knows when the next time will be?" Li Xuan was very dissatisfied with this age limit, he practiced martial arts hard, didn't he just wait for this day?As a result, at the age of 14, he didn't even have the qualifications to go to the battlefield.

It was just a little bit worse than killing him with a knife!
"Brother-in-law." Li Xuan leaned towards Xiao Lian with a flattering smile: "Well, aren't you the great general of hussars? Who can join the army and who can't join the army? It's not just a matter of your words? Can you... come with me? convenient?"

Before Xiao Lian answered, Li Huan next to him put down his chopsticks in displeasure: "Xuan'er, what are you talking nonsense about? That's going to the battlefield, and you're going to use real knives and guns. Like home?!"

It was as if a firecracker had been ignited, and Li Xuan immediately snapped at the case: "Who says I'm just playing house? I've mastered every move my brother-in-law taught me, so why can't I go to the battlefield to kill the enemy! Believe it or not, you come to compete with me, believe it or not, I can kick you away with one kick?"

"You..." Li Huan was so angry that he pointed his chopsticks at Li Xuan, speechless for a long time.

With a sound of "pa", someone hit Li Xuan's head hard, the pain made him burst into tears.

"Sister, why did you hit me!"

"Eat as soon as you eat, and if you talk too much, your brother-in-law and I will leave now."

"Don't, don't, don't." Li Xuan didn't dare to make mistakes when he heard it, so he obediently picked up his rice bowl, chewing the rice in his mouth angrily, thinking, no, he must not miss this great opportunity, he must Find a way and work for the country!

After lunch, Xiao Lian bid farewell to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and they had to go to the palace to bid farewell to the Queen Mother.

"Grandmother, grandson and grandson-in-law are here to see you." Xiao Lian led Li Ying to greet the Queen Mother in the warm pavilion. As soon as the two stepped into the warm pavilion, they smelled a strange fragrance of medicine.

"You guys are here, come and sit down." The Queen Mother leaned on the bed and waved to the two of them.

Li Ying pointed to the few incense sticks and asked: "Grandmother, what is this, it tastes so special."

"Oh." The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "It's a prescription developed by an imperial physician named Duan in the Imperial Hospital, and it is said that it can cure Ai's headache."

"The surname is Duan, Duan Yanlin?"

"It seems to be called this name, and she was born white and clean."

"That's right, Queen Mother, that's my brother-in-law."

"Why do you call me brother-in-law before you get married?" Xiao Lian pointed out with a smile beside him.

"Hey..." Li Ying sighed: "Speaking of this, if it weren't for that ruthless Da Jin, their marriage wouldn't have been delayed halfway."

The queen mother frowned when she heard the words, she took Xiao Lian's hand and said: "Lian'er, you have been in the frontier for ten years. As the queen mother, the Ai family has a lot of confidence in you, but as your grandmother, No matter how powerful you are, you are just a child in Aijia's heart... Aijia doesn't want you to go, in case something happens to you, how will you let Aijia survive, what will Yinger do..."

After the queen mother finished speaking, two lines of tears fell from her yellow eyes.

"Grandmother, don't cry." Xiao Lian wiped away tears for the Queen Mother: "The grandson promises you, he will definitely return safely."

In fact, such words are also deceiving one's own people. Everyone knows that there is no certainty when going to the battlefield?Life and death are but a fine line.

But the Empress Dowager just wanted to listen to this lie: "Lian'er, grandma will feel at ease with your words. You have to remember, grandma is waiting for you to come back. If you don't come back, grandma won't die in peace."

"Grandmother." Li Ying hurriedly persuaded: "Don't worry, it's not just you, I won't allow him to make mistakes. With the two of us waiting in the back, I don't think he dare not be disobedient."

The queen mother was coaxed by the two of them, so she temporarily put her worries behind her.

After a while, the queen mother fell asleep in the scent, and the two quietly exited the warm pavilion.

After coming out of the palace, Xiao Lian had time to be alone with Li Ying for a while.He has been preparing for the expedition for the past few days, leaving early and returning late, it is rare that he is free today, he ran two places, leaving only tonight for the two of them.

In fact, Li Ying has been a little depressed these few days, because the fact that Xiao Lian is going to the frontier to lead the army to fight is too sudden.She originally thought that after surviving the flood, the plague, and the palace catastrophe, there must be a happy life waiting for the two of them ahead, but who knew that he would go to the front line again without a single day of this good life. up...

Tonight is the last night of their togetherness. She felt reluctant and sad, but she didn't want to leave him with any unhappy memories, so what Xiao Lian saw was her beautiful wife deliberately deflated. Mouth, eyes blinking, raised his head aggrievedly and complained to him: "Husband, can God not see us well? This husband and wife are always in a few days of peace, and you will leave again..."

As soon as Xiao Lian exerted his strength, he hugged Li Ying and sat on his lap, and the two sat on the edge of the bed. Xiao Lian embraced her from behind with both hands, and comforted her in a soft voice: "My dear madam, what are you doing?" What stupid things are you talking about, if God doesn't see us well, how can I meet you in the dark and marry you again?"

Li Ying turned around and put her arms around Xiao Lian's neck: "What my husband said is, I am very glad to meet you and marry you."

Seeing the bewildered and yearning look on Xiao Lian's boundlessly handsome face, Li Ying pecked his slightly parted lips unexpectedly.

Now, Li Ying has stabbed a hornet's nest.

Xiao Lian quickly realized that he turned his back on the guest, grabbed the back of Li Ying's head with his right hand, and kissed Li Ying deeply without any explanation.

"Yingying..." Xiao Lian's voice became hoarse and deep, "Is it okay?"

In an instant, everything that happened in the previous life, and the little things that Xiao Lian did for her in this life, all flooded into Li Ying's mind like a tide.

Although Li Ying has never figured out why Xiao Lian obeyed Xiao Chun's order to kill her family members in the previous life, but that doesn't seem to be important anymore, because everything has changed in this life.

He is her husband, for her, he can abandon everything, he can give up his life, and he can be an enemy of the world.

You can't deceive people with sincerity, and you can't fake actions. Li Ying really felt Xiao Lian's warm and deep love for her.

She didn't hesitate any longer.

The moment Xiao Lian saw Li Ying covering his face and nodding, his whole blood boiled!
He felt like he was going crazy with joy!
He wanted to tear her apart and crush her, to swallow her whole, to possess her all, but in the end all his wild thoughts turned into soft kisses one after another.

His kisses fell on Li Ying's face and body densely like raindrops. His eyes, which were always calm and calm, became eager and crazy. His eyes were hot, and every time they fell on her, it seemed to be able to shake her body. Skin burns.His expression is pious, he wants to kiss every inch of her skin, remember her every expression, and listen to her every voice.
