Mountains and rivers are in her palm

Chapter 7

After hearing this, Mrs. Sun pursed her lips. She is not a woman who only knows how to fight and fight in the backyard. Duojishao... She turned pale when she thought of this.

Suddenly, I felt a heat on my hand, and saw my little and delicate daughter holding her hand that was turning the prayer beads quickly.

"Mother, there is one more thing." Yan Wanqing moved closer and lowered her voice: "My daughter has been in poor health, not because of the cold... but because of poison."

The moment the last word fell, the candles in the room suddenly made a crisp sound.

"Yes..." Mrs. Sun looked at Yan Wanqing hesitantly, guessing but not sure.

Yan Wanqing nodded: "Yes."

"Confused!" Sun burst into tears, and she grabbed her daughter's hands with her backhand: "How can you father and daughter be so confused?"

Yan Wanqing showed a wry smile and fell into memories.

On the way back from Saibei four years ago, she was repeatedly assassinated. The methods were ruthless, but the tricks were not fatal. They just wanted to seriously injure her. The closer to the capital, the more assassins, and the locusts crossed the border continuously.

She was attacked from the front and back, and only one of the eighteen dead soldiers around her died, and finally carried her back to the gate of the Zhenguo mansion.

That night, the mansion of the Duke of Zhen was brightly lit, and the maidservants carried pots of blood out of the lotus garden, and Yan Wanqing, who was revered by the people in Dawei, was directly dragged off the altar with the flood of morning light. .

Yan Wanqing, can no longer practice martial arts!
During the five years of highlight moments, she was like a shining shooting star across the sky of Dawei, leaving only a halo in the end.

That year, the emperor happily canonized her as Princess Anping.

Under the high rank, her father Yan Guozhong held her shoulder firmly, forcing her to bow her head and accept the canonization.

My father said that as a subject, one must be loyal to the king and serve the country. If the king wants it, the minister knows it and does it.

The father also said that the emperor was angry and the world fell, and their Yan family has been pure and good for generations, defending the family and the country. If they can't be loyal and filial to protect the people of Li, it will violate the precepts.

So he administered a poison called Qianji to Yan Wanqing with his own hands, which ruined the kung fu she had practiced in ten years of cold winter and scorching heat overnight.

He also told her that only he had the antidote for Qianji, and he would give it to her only after waiting for a suitable opportunity.

"What is the right opportunity? This old fool!" Mrs. Sun was so angry that she wept. She felt sorry for her eldest daughter who had suffered for five full years.

Sun wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and forced himself to be calm: "You never blamed your father, it was his stupid loyalty that caused you..."

"No, my daughter is from the Yan family, and I understand it in my heart." The Yan family is now a thorn in the side of the royal family, so how could she not know the reason why the tree attracts attention.

Mrs. Sun had a sore nose and was about to cry again. She quickly took a deep breath and stood up: "Your father didn't tell me where to put Qianji's antidote, but don't worry, mother will definitely find a way to detoxify it for you."

"No need for mother, daughter..." Before Yan Wanqing finished speaking, Mrs. Sun had already opened the door and went out. Then Congge brought the maids in and arranged for Yan Wanqing to wash up.

Yan Wanqing: "..." It was the first time she saw Mrs. Sun in such a hurry.

Soon the time came, the sixth day of February.

Every year, the empress invites the female family members of officials and eunuchs to appreciate the plum blossoms in Nanshan. In previous years, there were only female relatives. Even His Royal Highness, who is busy on weekdays and does not touch the ground, has to accompany him in person. It is conceivable how much Dawei attaches great importance to this princess.

The men and sons of the official family are eager to fight, and the daughters are not to be outdone. This is a rare opportunity to see the prince who is rumored to be a fairy. You have to groom yourself well and strive to win the eyes of the prince of the East Palace.

So when the fragrant chariots gathered one after another, the front of the foot of Nanshan Mountain was already full of beautiful flowers, competing for beauty.

Yan Wanqing didn't catch up. She was sleepy yesterday, and she got up in the morning feeling heavy. She was so anxious that the maids in the yard came and went. It was not until noon that the carriage of Yan's family arrived at the foot of the mountain, waiting for them When people entered, everyone began to eat vegetarian food.

"Mother, my daughter is a little sleepy, I'm going to rest first." Yan Wanqing is not hungry, Nanshan's fast noodles are excellent, but she has no appetite at all.

Mrs. Sun saw that her eyes were slightly blue, so she nodded distressedly: "Go."

The eldest daughter is good in everything, but her bones are a little weaker. If it wasn't for Sai Bei's injury back then, how could she have waited until Nineteen and hadn't married yet, plus that thousand poisons... The more Mrs. Sun thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. It's not tasteful either.

All the good men in the capital are here, but I don't know which one will be the home of the eldest daughter.

"Sister, I heard that the Queen's Empress ordered that all the younger generations of the family should attend tomorrow's New Year's Eve banquet. The eldest lady should keep her spirits up so that she can participate in the evening." Said: "Mrs. Beijiang Hou, who had been in correspondence with you before, has also sent your son over."

"Oh?" Mrs. Sun became interested. Madam Hou of Beijiang has always given her a handkerchief, but she has been married for many years and has not seen him: "Which son is here, if it is Huaiyu, we can meet."

"I will ask someone to come over later, and my sister will know when she asks." Aunt Song was relieved to see that Sun was no longer worried, so she joked: "Back then, my sister had a baby with Mrs. Beijiang Hou. dear."

Mrs. Sun smiled a little when she thought about the things she had done when she was young, and she seemed to be a little more lively, and the two of them talked a little more.

Cong Huan outside the door had a heavy expression on his face.

I never thought that the eldest lady would make a baby kiss with the young master of Beijiang. I heard that the young master is also a man of influence. If this really happens, what will the Seventh Prince do?What should she do?
For the sake of the Seventh Prince's great cause, Yan Wanqing said that he could not marry the little prince of Beijiang. Thinking of this, Cong Huan quickly turned his head and ran towards the door.

She has to inform the Seventh Prince!
Yan Wanqing, who returned to the wing room over there, did not rest immediately. She lay down in front of the desk and painted. If someone who is proficient in national defense saw it, they would recognize it as a map of the Yanmen Pass city defense. All of them are depicted on the paper, especially the careful thought of the person who composed the picture.

Even Yan Guozhong, the Duke of Zhen, had to marvel at the detail of this picture when he saw it.

Yan Wanqing put down her pen. She frowned and looked at the city defense map in front of her. She always felt that something was wrong. This was slowly presented on the paper based on the memory of her previous life.

In her previous life, when she came back from going to the south of the Yangtze River to deal with floods, she received bad news. She absolutely did not believe that her father and uncle could not even defend a small Yanmen Pass, let alone the entire army of Yan and Sun's two children.

So she studied the city defense map all night, and the flowers and trees on it had been firmly engraved in her mind.

Yanmen Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. What is the reason why the father and uncle brought all the children out, knowing that the other side lured the enemy deep, but also fought to the death?

This is a question entangled in the late Yan and Qing Dynasties.

Kyoto is on the southernmost side of Dawei, and Yanmenguan is on the northernmost side. There are no less than three mountains between the two cities. One person and one horse have to run for more than a month to get there without eating, drinking, or sleeping. It takes more than three months for normal driving, and it is only a one-way trip. .

This is also the reason why Yan Wanqing refused to visit Yanmen to care about Si.

One is that the time is too late, but the body does not allow it. If she leaves, the entire Yan family will be old, weak, sick, and lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

But even so, Yan Wanqing wanted to try.

She picked up the pen and repeatedly mentioned Qiong Kou Mozhui on the small note, then carefully rolled it up and stuffed it into the bamboo tube that was less than half of her little finger.
