Snowy Chang'an Road

Chapter 47 Disagreement arises
  Pei Ying spoke without intention, but Wei Shao listened with intention.

Lovesick? Who is she missing?

After getting caught up in this problem, he remained a little absent-minded during the rest of the rafting process.

Pei Ying also noticed that he was not in the right state.

"I'm a little tired, let's paddle back."

"it is good."

There was no communication between the two. Wei Shao rowed the boat to the shore, while Pei Ying drank by herself and enjoyed the scenery.

After nightfall, the soldiers set up a bonfire by the lake, and the fish caught from the lake today were sizzling in the flames. Although the weather was very cold, everyone's enthusiasm did not diminish.

As the coach, Wei Shao toasted and drank with the soldiers.

After returning from the lake tour, Pei Ying felt uncomfortable in her stomach and returned to her tent to rest early.

"Your Majesty, the porridge is ready."

"understood."

Wei Shao stood up, signaled Zhong Yang and Xiao Shen to continue, and picked up the porridge and headed towards the big tent.

Zhong Yang looked at his leaving figure and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Wei is really considerate to his younger siblings."

Xiao Shen took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is also very good to him. They are mutual."

In the big tent, Pei Ying fell into a drowsy sleep thanks to the alcohol, but she could still feel a vague discomfort in her stomach.

Hearing someone walking into the tent, Pei Ying opened her hazy sleepy eyes.

As the candlelight flickered, Wei Shao, dressed in black clothes, walked slowly towards the bed. He was tall and majestic. He was a handsome man in ancient costumes.

"How did you come?"

"I cooked porridge for you, do you want to drink it?"

"it is good."

Pei Ying sat up, took the bowl from Wei Shao's hand, and drank spoonful by spoonful.

Seeing her hair that was a little messy from sleeping, Wei Shao couldn't help but stretched out his hand to help her tidy it up. Pei Ying didn't refuse, or even paid attention to his action.

"Pei Ying, I have something to ask you."

"You said."

"Today when we were boating on the lake, you said that the wine made you sad and turned into tears of lovesickness. I want to ask you who are you missing?"

Hearing his question, Pei Ying didn't even take her eyes away from the bowl and said, "This is a lyric, and I don't know who the composer is missing."

"I'm asking you who you miss?"

Only then did Pei Ying raise her head. She heard something was wrong in Wei Shao's tone, looked at him and said, "I don't miss anyone, I just suddenly thought of this poem and blurted it out."

"Is this poem composed by a man?"

Pei Ying thought for a while and replied: "Yes."

"Does he admire you?"

Hearing his question, Pei Ying's little face was filled with big question marks.

"He is more than a thousand years older than me. If he looks up to me, should I get chills down my back?"

After hearing her answer, Wei Shao's tense heartstrings relaxed.

"Wei Shao, are you jealous?"

"No." "If you deny it so quickly, it must be true. No wonder Xiao Shen and others always call you a jealous person from Chang'an in private. I didn't expect you to be true."

"."

In the next few days, Wei Shao's mood improved a lot. He could not hide the smile on his brows and eyes, and even Bai Zheng, who had always been dull, noticed the clues.

In their eyes, Wei Shao is now like a male peacock who will open his tail to Pei Ying at any time.

Four days later, a large army was stationed fifty miles north of Changsha. Wei Shao and several others were in the military tent to discuss the next battle plan, but this time, they had differences.

Zhong Yang still insisted on the old strategy. He suggested that his Majesty's autographed letter to Han Zhu should be delivered first. If Han Zhu handed over Yun Zheng quickly and happily, everyone would be in peace. If Han Zhu had been bought by Yun Zheng, he would not want to If they hand him over, they will attack by force. At the same time, they can also recruit soldiers from Jiangxia County to support him.

Based on the terrain analysis, Xiao Shen found that the Changsha Kingdom was backed by Wuling Mountains and Xuefeng Mountains, surrounded by mountains, and the terrain was complex. If they were to attack by force, it would be counterproductive if they hid in the mountains.

Wei Shao believed that if we could fight without bloodshed, just like the previous two countries, it would be the best choice.

But Xiao Shen immediately raised objections.

"Brother Wei, Lu Yi surrendered without a fight because he still had illusions in his heart. Yun Zheng fled in a hurry because he wanted to preserve his strength. He fled to Changsha with tens of thousands of soldiers because he had already prepared a plan to deal with South Korea. Nagisa is ready to surrender. Now they probably have a hundred thousand soldiers in their hands. Although our number is twice theirs, this is their territory after all. If we blindly show our kindness, they are likely to kick us in the nose. Face."

"But we can't attack by force, the terrain is unfamiliar, and the food and grass are not that sufficient. The conditions are not favorable to us."

After hearing the debate among several people, Pei Ying said: "Wei Shao, have you read His Majesty's letter to King Linxiang?"

Wei Shao shook his head.

"Then take it and let's take a look."

"But this is what your Majesty gave to King Linxiang."

"Don't you want to know what His Majesty wrote to King Linxiang?"

Everyone was silent.

Pei Ying took the letter from Wei Shao and opened it.

The King of Linxiang personally expresses his gratitude to you for your hard work and dedication, so I have assigned the three counties of Nanhai County, Yulin County, and Xiang County to you, and you will take over the jurisdiction from now on. I see your words like my face. I hope you will cherish them and see you again in Chang'an next year. Meet.

"Whose territory belongs to these three counties?"

"Pang Yue, King of Southern Cang."

"His Majesty used only a few crosses to divide the family fortune of King Nan Cang. He is really nosy, fanning the flames and making decisions for others."

Everyone was a little presumptuous when they heard her words and kept their mouths shut.

"Since His Majesty has already said that you should send this letter to the King of Linxiang first, then I think your top priority is to act in accordance with His Majesty's decree. After all, resisting the decree will cost you your head. As for whether to attack Changsha Kingdom later, you still have to do it. It depends on King Linxiang’s reaction after reading this letter.”

Zhong Yang asked: "Then who should we send to deliver the letter?"

"Wei Shao, who do you think is the most suitable person to send this letter?"

Wei Shao looked at everyone, thought for a moment and said, "Me."

After hearing his recommendation, Xiao Shen was the first to stand up and object.

"You are the coach and cannot leave. If something happens to you when you deliver the letter, the morale of the army will be devastated."

Zhong Yang also echoed: "Yes, brother Wei, there are still us people blocking the front, it's not your turn to take action personally."

Bai Zheng also persuaded him with a sad face: "Your Majesty, let me go. Bai Zheng's life belongs to you."

Seeing their sad faces, Pei Ying said: "Everyone, Wei Shao went to deliver a message, not to die. Is this what you think? Who is he? He is the prince. King Linxiang will not dare to kill him unless he is tired of living. , I really don’t know what are you thinking in your heads?”

"Sister-in-law, Han Zhu is a low-key person and keeps aloof from the world. I guess he doesn't have any evil intentions. But when we were in Liu'an Kingdom, everyone saw what happened to the people and what Yun Zheng did. Yun Zheng has evil intentions, and it is difficult to guarantee many things. What if Wei Shaogui is the prince? Not to mention that he is as close as brothers to Qi Zhan and Lu Yi. Who can guarantee that he will not avenge his brothers? ?”

"Since you are all so worried about Wei Shao, then I will go with him."
