This mountain is mine

Chapter 262 The Crisis of Song Dynasty

"Is that crazy woman still following?" Zhao Chi asked sullenly.

The crazy woman is called Yu Miaomiao.

The guard driving the carriage glanced back. There were not many people on the official road, and there was indeed a carriage following in the distance. There were several guards on horseback guarding the carriage, and the sound of horseshoes could be heard.

"Go back to Your Highness, they are still following."

Zhao Chi angrily lifted the curtain of the car to look back, then looked back, and punched the car wall.

"What are these lunatics trying to do?"

No one could answer Zhao Chi's question, and they didn't know what the other party wanted to do.

From that day on, Zhao Chi led his army and was defeated by the rebels. He died or surrendered. Due to the situation, he could only decide to retreat back to Bianjing first, and at the same time, he sent to the imperial court to send more troops as soon as possible.

Afterwards, Zhao Chi left first with his cronies and guards. He thought that when he arrived in Bianjing years ago, he would be able to kill these rebels on the way.

Unexpectedly, Yu Miaomiao has been following Zhao Chi's car since then.

The rebels followed Yu Miaomiao all the way to conquer the city.

Zhao Chi took a long detour to Bianjing, and Yu Miaomiao also detoured, and the rebels followed suit. Even though the gates of Xiangzhou Prefecture passing by were strong and the defenders were strong, they followed suit.

Zhao Chi walked the country road, and Yu Miaomiao naturally followed like a ghost, eating and sleeping in the open.

However, the defenders of the cities in various places were really too weak, too disappointing, and they were dealt with without any effort.

After attacking the city, these rebels, in addition to supplying food and grass, and bravely replenishing their troops in storage boxes, hacked and killed officials and merchants who disliked them, leaving a mess, but they did not send troops to guard them. Continue to chase without delaying the journey.

Apart from the four powerful dark guards, Yu Miaomiao also brought hundreds of people with him.

Along the way, Zhao Chi has already been chased by Yu Miaomiao five or six times. Basically, the two sides will fight each other every other day. Seeing that the guards around him are gradually decreasing. There were originally four to five hundred people, but now they are sparse. There are forty or fifty people, and there are still seven or eight days away from Bianjing.

Zhao Chi is not worried that it is a lie. In the past ten days or so, he has suffered more than in the past 30 years. He can't eat well, sleep well, and is followed like a stray dog. He is in a bad mood, and his eyes are darkened. eye socket.

He was caught up again just now, and after a fight, he managed to get away under the cover of the guards, but now he thought of the way that crazy woman in Yu Miaomiao looked at him just now, and he felt uncomfortable. Years of caution made his With an exceptionally keen intuition, she always felt that Yu Miaomiao was plotting something.

But what is the conspiracy?Who knows what this mob of them is up to?
Just a bunch of lunatics.

The atmosphere in the carriage was a bit heavy, Eunuch Liu comforted: "Your Highness, the previous rush should have been delivered, and the reinforcements from the imperial court are coming soon, and it's time for Your Highness to take care of them."

Zhao Chi snorted.

The guard turned his head and glanced back. The two sides had fought a lot just now, and both were injured. Because of Yu Miaomiao's abdominal pain, the chariots and horses of the two sides separated a little.

On a cold day, the curtain of the carriage at the back is still open, and you can see Yu Miaomiao in the carriage, but you can't see her face clearly, let alone her eyes.

But it can be imagined.

They followed each other for several days and met face-to-face several times, but only once, he couldn't forget it.

Yu Miaomiao's eyes seemed to be poisoned, she clearly looked like a gentle and kind little woman, her black and white eyes were distinct, but there was a faint light, indifferent, ruthless, and violent.

Just like what Zhao Chi said, Yu Miaomiao has gone crazy.

The Gu worm she put on Zhao Man died, she woke up from a coma that day, and the winner had already been drawn outside the city, so she left the city.

Zhao Man is dead, she will not die for him, she is not a woman who cannot live without a man, not to mention she has a child in her belly, she is also reluctant to part with her and Zhao Man's knife.

It's just that she held back a fire of anger in her heart, and if she didn't vent it out, she felt that she would go crazy, and she would be driven crazy by her inner fire. For her own sake, she could only vent it out without finding a target.

This old Zhao family is her enemy, and the hatred of killing her husband is irreconcilable. Zhao Chi is right in front of her eyes, so she will naturally take revenge on him first.

She followed Zhao Chi endlessly, and she didn't care about the war. Zhao Man had handed over everything to Zhou Xiuwu earlier, but Zhou Xiuwu led his troops to follow her, thinking about what she said to go to Bianjing to meet Zhao Man.

Li Sijin also led people to follow him not too far away.

In addition to chasing and fighting, Yu Miaomiao kept sending people to inquire about the news along the way.

Even if the Gu worm died, she still hoped that there would be an accident, maybe he was hiding in a corner, but he couldn't pass the news to her, maybe he was planning to make a move later.

But after exploring so much, there is only a little news about the Jurchens.

Jurchen has now sent envoys to Bianjing to discuss the ownership of Youyun Sixteen States, and the envoys have entered the city of Bianjing.

In addition, the court already knew about the battle of Fangling, and the court and the public were furious, and hurriedly summoned the Northern Song Army to return to defense.

For the rest, no news came.

Yu Miaomiao was a little disappointed, these two pieces of news had nothing to do with Zhao Man, and now they didn't even give her any hope.

The closer to Bianjing city, the more soldiers and horses stationed in the city, these few days Yu Miaomiao has distanced himself from the soldiers and horses behind him.There were only about fifty people around her, and Zhao Chi only had a few bodyguards.

This day is already the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and Zhao Chi hid in Yingtian Mansion.

This place is already very close to Bianjing City, guarded by heavy soldiers, Zhao Chi heaved a sigh of relief, now that he is in his territory, he doesn't even care about resting, so he leads the army to look for Yu Miaomiao, killing this woman will not relieve his hatred!

Who would have thought that after searching the whole city, there was no news of Yu Miaomiao, but when Henji returned to the city, he suddenly fell off his horse, his stomach ached so badly, he hugged his stomach and wailed endlessly, the pain was so painful, if Zhao Chi hadn't been tough, he might have committed suicide .

After the most powerful doctor in Yingtian Mansion checked his pulse, he came to the conclusion that "there is no serious problem. Your Highness is just tired from the journey and overwhelmed with worry. You can recover after a few days of rest."

Before Zhao Chi got angry and beheaded these quack doctors, he fought back with the pain in his stomach. When the pain came, his face was pale, his veins were exposed, his eyes protruded, and he was very hideous. Back to normal, no different from ordinary people.

After seeing Zhao Chi's tragic illness, all the doctors dared not say that he was fine, but there was nothing abnormal when they took the pulse.

Among these doctors, one of them guessed the reason, "Has your Highness eaten any weird things these days?"

Although Zhao Chi was impatient, it was a matter of his own life and death. He still thought about it carefully, then shook his head. Even if he was chased by Yu Miaomiao, in the wilderness, the food he ate was absolutely clean. The attendant tastes it first, and he eats it only if it is safe, according to the rules of the palace.

Eunuch Liu also quickly assured and denied that Zhao Chi ate everything he tasted and sent it up, and there was nothing unusual about him, but something happened to Zhao Chi. If so, wouldn't everyone suspect him?

In addition to guarantees and denials, Eunuch Liu also carefully recalled that he had to cleanse himself. This memory, he faltered and reminded the angry Zhao Chi: "Your Highness, there was a game outside Yingtian Mansion yesterday. Rain, that crazy woman poured water on His Highness..." Did His Highness drink some of the dirty water?
Eunuch Liu didn't dare to ask the latter sentence, but Zhao Chi's face became even more gloomy, obviously remembering this, this matter was his shame, and he naturally didn't want people to mention it.

The doctor didn't dare to ask more questions, he just said: "I heard that the Miao people have a kind of Gu, when refining Gu, they used a small drum to control it, this Gu insect often moves when it hears the sound of the drum, and it is controlled by some kind of secret method. As long as someone beats the drum, no matter how far away it is, the Gu worm will writhe crazily in the abdomen, and the symptoms are similar to what His Highness just experienced."

This Gu insect is a very common species in Miaojiang, and ordinary Gu doctors can expel Gu.

Yu Miaomiao got this from her tenth cousin in Lanjiazhai. The method of refining Gu is simple. She refined the semi-finished product by herself. It happened that while refining Gu, she took a special rattle to coax the knife to play with. The movement is also very interesting, Xiao Dao likes to watch Gu worms dance very much.

This is also the most vicious Gu worm in Yu Miaomiao's hands, but it can only make Zhao Chi hurt, or die. Of course, if he can't stand the pain and commits suicide, that's another matter.

The Lan clan forbids giving such vicious things to people. The clan's refining this Gu is just for fun. The basic learning for a few children to enter the industry is to see whose Gu insects twist more vigorously when fighting Gu. That's all.

Yu Miaomiao used to think it was just for coaxing children to play, but now she doesn't care about it, if there are more vicious ones, she will call on Zhao Chi, no matter whether it is to give Zhao Man the carousel Gu, or send troops to encircle and suppress Zhao Man , this prince can't get rid of his relationship, let alone if she doesn't kill Zhao Chi, Zhao Chi won't let her go.

Although this doctor knows it, he doesn't know how to dispel the Gu.

Moreover, since the Zunyi Army was transferred to besiege Fangling a month ago, there was a small chaos in Bozhou, and the imperial court issued a decree to condemn Yang Hong for his ineffective governance. Now the Miao people can no longer go out at will, and even those who go out hide their identities. How dare they reveal themselves? .

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to find a doctor who can dispel the Gu, so I can only send someone to Bozhou overnight to find a Gu doctor.

Before that, Zhao Chi could only suffer.

Yu Miaomiao was lying on the couch in the carriage to Bianjing, shaking the rattle in her hand from time to time, and the guards driving the carriage only thought she was coaxing the child in her belly.

Now that she had found the opportunity to put a Gu on Zhao Chi, she would not foolishly expose her whereabouts and follow her into Ying Tianfu to die.

What's more, in the past few days, she has received news that the negotiations between the Jurchen envoys and Da Song broke up unhappy, and now the envoys have gone back, and the people she sent found these people in a hurry, and these people almost ran for their lives.

Looking again, it was the Jurchen who made frequent moves at the border after the negotiation collapsed, as if they knew the negotiation would not work.

Yu Miaomiao knew that it wasn't that he knew it would fail, but that he planned it long ago, but he used the negotiation as a cover to delay the time and make Song Ting relax his guard. Now everything is probably ready.

Now the troops have been divided into two groups. The West Route Army attacked Taiyuan from Datong Mansion in Xijing, and the East Route Army attacked Yanshan Mansion from Nanjing Youdu Mansion. The resistance was changed to a long-term siege.

The Eastern Route Army had already entered Yanshan Mansion, and the Song defender Guo Yaoshi surrendered, and the Jurchens, guided by Guo Yaoshi, went down the Yellow River and went straight to Bianjing.

She has been asking people to search for Zhao Man's whereabouts on the border between Song and Central China. This news is one step earlier than Song's military emergency report.

This year, Bianjing must be quite lively.

On the way to Bianjing, Yu Miaomiao was thinking that although Tang Kuo Tesiha disrupted the rhythm of history, he still wrote the history of the Jurchens completely. Guess, this fellow countryman wants to dominate the world.

However, Tang Kuo should be from the civilized age just like her. I don’t know if there will be a horrific siege of Bianjing like in history, driving the people of the old Zhao’s family back to the north like livestock and serving as slaves , as a military prostitute.

Yu Miaomiao didn't even know whether she really wanted the Northern Song Dynasty to end in such a miserable way and let the stupid emperor and courtiers be punished in order to relieve her hatred, or whether she hoped that something would change.

None of this matters to her.

She just wanted to see if that person would come back to stop him, the siege of Bianjing was definitely not what Zhao Man wanted to see, as long as he was alive, he would definitely come back, she wanted to see him sooner.

Thinking so, she still passed on the situation to Zhou Xiuwu who was one step behind her, and she didn't want to interfere with what Zhou Xiuwu planned to do.

On the evening of New Year's Eve, Li Miaomiao saw the majestic and majestic city walls of Bianjing City.

The city is full of hustle and bustle, with the sound of firecrackers from far and near, the carriages are walking on the street, only occasionally you can see people rushing home with wine or fireworks, the laughter of children comes and goes, like So far away, yet so close.

She sniffed hard, and could smell the aroma of wine and vegetables everywhere, which was the smell of New Year's Eve.

She used to enjoy it too, slapping the back of the hand of the man who was stealing vegetables, watching him continue to steal food in front of her without hesitation, refusing to change it, and stuffing it into her mouth, and then dipping it in vegetable juice His fingers shared with the knife.

Seeing her angrily stopping her, he said solemnly, "Miaomiao, don't make trouble, the food in the pot is going to burn."
