Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 881: Time To Mature

At dusk, Xiao Wuyou's fever finally subsided completely.

Only then did Nanny Gui feel completely at ease, but seeing the tired look on Tang Huanxi's face, she immediately became worried.

"lady?"

"Has Xiao Baorui come back yet?"

"Not yet." Nanny Gui replied truthfully, "There is still a quarter of an hour left before we reach the station. General Yang has ordered everyone to rest at the station and wait for the general to gather."

"En." Tang Huanxi nodded lightly.

The reason why Yang Jing was taken to the prison that day was a trap from beginning to end.

Yang Jing is upright, loyal and patriotic.

This point, Murong He is also well aware.

Originally their plan was to lure the snake out of the hole, but they didn't think the other party was too forbearing.

In desperation, Xiao Baorui had no choice but to ask Murong He to release Yang Jing and let him take the blame and make meritorious service.

If they can cooperate seamlessly this time and completely solve the banditry in Longhu Mountain, it will be another military achievement.

Tang Huanxi leaned back in the carriage, closed her eyes and rested for a while.

She opened her eyes immediately when the sound of horse hooves came from far and near.

"My lady, it's me!"

"Mom, and me!"

Tang Huanxi immediately opened the curtain, and when she saw the people outside, she smiled slightly.

At that time, Xiao Baorui and Xiao Yijin, father and son, were riding on the same horse, looking at her with a smile on their faces.

"Why did it take so long?" After the father and son got into the carriage, Tang Huanxi quickly handed the mountain spring water he had prepared in advance to Xiao Baorui, "Drink first."

"it is good!"

After Xiao Baorui regained his energy completely, he couldn't help holding Tang Huanxi's hand, and his tone was full of rejoicing, "My lady, you are right."

"?"

"Now the sky in Kyoto has completely changed."

After Xiao Baorui dispatched troops to leave the capital, Han Jianming led three thousand imperial troops to completely surround the palace, and revealed the mystery of Murong Ze's life experience. It turned out that Murong Ze was not the blood of the former emperor at all. A person born from a female stem.Because Han Gong used this to attack Murong Ze!

"It turns out that Murong Ze is not of the royal blood?" Such a royal secret is indeed inconceivable.

"Well, now Han Jianming has controlled the entire court."

"No matter how you say it, Mr. Han is just a courtier. Even if he wants to make things right, he still needs an appropriate timing and an excuse." Tang Huanxi thought about it seriously, and asked with a frown, "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple."

"That's right, Han Guogong and Wen Huairen have colluded for a long time, and now the entire court is under control. I suspect that he wants to push the third prince born by Concubine Xian to be emperor." Xiao Baorui analyzed the current situation, his expression also changed. He became more and more serious, "However, the military power of the imperial court has been divided into five parts. Even if Han Jianming has one part, the other three generals have not received any news so far."

"Xiao Baorui, now is actually a good opportunity for you." Tang Huanxi looked him in the eyes and said after careful consideration, "If we can quickly solve the banditry in Longhu Mountain, then you can also Completely establish your prestige in the imperial court. You have made a lot of military achievements on the battlefield before. Xiao Baorui, I think the time is ripe."

Compared to Murong Ze, who has a dishonorable name, Xiao Baorui is the real blood of the Murong royal family.

"My lady..." Xiao Baorui looked at her and called out in a low voice.

Tang Huanxi held his hand instead, and smiled, "Actually, since I knew you were the third prince Murong Chen who was born by Concubine Lan Gui, I have already figured out a lot of things. I have imagined what our future will look like I also know that you care about my thoughts very much. The reason why you refuse to restore your true identity today is because you don't want me to be involved in the vortex of power. You know that I don't like to live a life of intrigue, That's why you're worried. Right?"

Meeting her clear eyes, Xiao Baorui nodded slightly.

"Xiao Baorui, or I have already called you Murong Chen. No matter what your name is, I only know that the man in front of me is my husband, a man who can protect me from wind and rain."

"If Murong Ze is still the blood of the Murong royal family, then you can't stand by and watch this situation. Xiao Baorui, I support you to take back everything that belongs to you!"

"……it is good!"

At this moment, Xiao Baorui's last hesitation in his heart disappeared.

That night, Xiao Baorui went to Yang Jing's room with two jugs of wine. After the two had a long talk, Yang Jing also understood his reason for coming.

At the same time, Tang Huanxi wrote three secret letters overnight, which were clearly sent to the other three generals of the imperial court.

Qin Xiao, who was guarding the northwest, Guo Changlin, who was guarding the southeast, and Chen Zheng, a famous general of the imperial court, all received a secret letter five days later.

When they finished reading the contents of the letter, everyone was shocked!

At that time, Xiao Baorui had already led elite soldiers to Longhu Mountain.

Tang Huanxi frowned tightly as she looked at the topographic map spread out on the table.

"The terrain of Longhu Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In just two days, our casualties have exceeded [-]." Yang Jing said a little discouraged, "I have been immersed in the battlefield for many years, and I have fought countless battles on large and small battlefields." A hundred times, this time the opponent was only two thousand mobs, and they were able to defeat our attack so completely, it is really..."

"Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. Uncle, there is no need to be sad." Xiao Baorui said in a deep voice, "These bandits are powerful. If we continue to confront them head-on, the situation will be too unfavorable for us."

"Uncle Yang, Xiao Baorui, don't you think the two battles in the past two days are a bit strange?" Tang Huanxi, who had been observing the topographical map, suddenly said, "Every time we send troops, the other party will be prepared to detect the time and us. The location to attack..."

"There's a ghost inside!"

Yang Jing and Xiao Baorui said in unison!
"The top priority is to find out this ghost." Xiao Baorui said in a heavy tone.

"I think, I have a good idea." Tang Huanxi suddenly raised his lips and smiled slightly.

An hour later, Xiao Baorui held another meeting.

It was finally decided to set fire to the mountain near the north slope of Longhu Mountain at midnight tonight, and General Yang led [-] vanguard troops to the south slope for a sneak attack!

"The northern slopes of Longhu Mountain are all cliffs, while Nanbo is a plain area. If my guess is correct, these bandits will definitely concentrate their firepower to reach the southern slope." In the evening, under the supervision of Tang Huanxi, Xiao Baorui , and obediently used up a large bowl of noodles, "Lady, do you think we can catch him out this time with all the fuss?"

"It's definitely possible." Tang Huanxi looked at him and smiled confidently.
