A Thousand Hills

Chapter 289

Many years later, when historians analyzed the First World War in the South of the Yangtze River, they believed that Feng Feiyu's failure did not lie in his decision-making. In fact, there was nothing wrong with Feng Feiyu's decision-making. Of course, many people said that Feng Feiyu could bring more troops to copy the king's lair. , but in fact, at that time, there were 10,000+ troops on the front line to contain Liu Fufeng's army. Huguang, Jiangsu and Zhejiang all needed troops to be stationed. .Even the battle of Feng Feiyu's attack on Min'an Prefecture can be regarded as a classic in the siege battle. In the process of chasing the King of Fujian together, Feng Feiyu made no mistakes.

The reason why King Min was able to escape with his life, apart from the loyal escort of the army around him, it can only be said that King Min's luck was really good.Some people also said that most of His Royal Highness King Min's fortune in his life was spent on marrying a wife, and the lesser half was spent on this great escape from Fujian.

The Soul-Breaking Knife is a rare master, but Jiang Xingyun is in Feng Feiyu's hands, and although Feng Feiyu intends to compete with the Soul-Breaking Knife, after a few rounds, Feng Feiyu immediately gave up this stupid approach and greeted him. The guards went up together.As for the Tingzhou Army who came to help, Feng Feiyu's army felt that they could finally rest after chasing and killing all night.They took a break in the middle, killed most of the Tingzhou army and continued to hunt down the king of Fujian.

But the soul-breaking knife that failed to kill Feng Feiyu could only be tied to Feng Feiyu's side with a fast horse. The soul-breaking knife completely explained the influence of personal force on war-almost no impact.Especially when facing a coach with the same superb martial arts skills, even the soul-breaking knife is far inferior to Jiang Xingyun in delaying time, because Jiang Xingyun knows how to cooperate with his subordinates in battle, while the soul-breaking knife can only single-handedly kill several Jingjiang troops from time to time That's all.

The Tingzhou army failed to hold Feng Feiyu back. When King Min was caught up by Feng Feiyu for the second time, King Min looked at the green hills on both sides, and he felt that maybe the sky was going to kill me.King Min is ready to confess his last words, yes, last words.

King Min has never been a strong character, but he has the dignity of a prince of a country, and he would rather die in battle than be captured alive.

The King of Min looked at the hundreds of people around him, pulled out the sword from his waist, and ordered without losing his identity, "Fight to the end!" Reward the marquis, bestow a thousand gold!" Attack from all directions!
The Jingjiang army rushed over almost screaming.

King Min didn't think about what people would think before they died, he could just kill someone.

However, Princess Ningrong, who was far away in the imperial capital, obviously thought a lot, and Princess Ningrong was almost dying.

When Xie Moru heard the news, he was slightly surprised.She doesn't have a deep friendship with Princess Ning Rong, but she has a deep impression. Princess Ning Rong has embarrassed her, and Xie Moru has also picked up Princess Ning Rong's face.In short, for Xie Moru, although Princess Ningrong is not a likable existence, she is definitely not a passerby.

However, it has nothing to do with Xie Moru whether Princess Ningrong is dead or not.After all, following King Jingjiang's rebellion, Princess Ning Rong lost political power. These years, she has never had much contact with Prince Min's residence.

However, Xie Moru was a little surprised that the fourth concubine came to invite her personally.The fourth prince and concubine said with a haggard face that could not be concealed, "The imperial doctor said that the grandmother's body is only a few days away. She really wants to see her younger siblings."

Xie Moru was puzzled, and asked the fourth concubine to drink tea, and said bluntly, "Sister-in-law also knows that the eldest princess and I have always... had some misunderstandings." Even if the eldest princess Ning Rong confessed her last words, it would not be her turn to thank Moru. .

The fourth prince's concubine looked very earnest, and said in a low voice, "When a person is about to die, his words are also kind. Brothers and sisters should visit a dying old man."

Speaking of this, the Fifth Prince's Mansion has always been on good terms with the Fourth Prince's Mansion, even if Xie Moru didn't want to visit Princess Ningrong, he would still give the Fourth Prince this face.It is usually in the morning to visit patients. Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Moru said to the Fourth Prince, "It's getting late today, and I will go to visit the Eldest Princess tomorrow morning."

Hu originally wanted to say that Princess Dachang didn't have such rules.But thanking her was nothing like her expression, Hu still swallowed her words.If it's someone else, Hu can naturally ask them to go now, Xie Moru is not someone else after all, because of the rift between Xie Moru and Duke Cheng'en's house, if she doesn't go, no one else can say anything.Xie Moru was willing to go, Mrs. Hu quickly thanked and thanked, and made an appointment to go to the Dachang Princess' mansion together early in the morning, and then left.

Xie Moru personally sent Hu Shi.

In the early morning of the second day, Xie Moru had just finished his breakfast when Mrs. Hu arrived.

Xie Moru ordered people to prepare presents yesterday, boarded the car with Hu and went to the Dachang Princess' mansion.

Princess Ningrong was not loved by Emperor Mu Yuan. There were reasons for her background and her personality.However, as the king of a country, Emperor Mu Yuan is full of tolerance and self-cultivation. Even if he doesn't like the eldest princess, he will not treat her badly in terms of the treatment of the eldest princess. Therefore, the regulations of the eldest princess Ningrong's mansion are called God. The first place in Princess Du's Mansion, Princess Wenkang's Mansion is slightly inferior to her.

However, under the shining sun, such a majestic and magnificent mansion, for some reason, gives people an indescribable sense of decline.

The fourth concubine and Xie Moru are both princesses. After the concierge came out to greet her, he opened the middle door, and the carriage drove directly into the Dachang Princess' mansion.

Xie Moru and his entourage went directly to the main courtyard where the eldest princess lived. Apparently, the eldest princess's residence had already made preparations. There were not many maids in the eldest princess's room, only Mrs. Nan'anhou, the mother concubine of the fourth prince, served by her side.Because of the good weather, half of the carved windows were opened in the room, and the fresh and elegant hibiscus incense was burning in the incense burner. If Xie Moru hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Xie Moru would not have believed that the old woman with white hair lying on the bed would have died. It was the eldest princess Ningrong who always liked to be self-righteous back then.Eldest Princess Ningrong is very old, but her hair is pale but neatly combed, her complexion is withered and yellow, and she is also very clean. It can be seen that her children and grandchildren are very considerate in serving her.

"Your Highness, Your Highness." Mrs. Nan'an Hou whispered a few times, the princess' eyes moved slightly, and after a long time she opened her eyes, Mrs. Nan'an Hou continued to whisper in Ning Rong's ear, "Your Highness, Princess Min is here. "

The eldest princess' eyes rolled slowly, looking at Xie Moru and the fourth concubine, and finally fixed on Xie Moru's face.The Eldest Princess said in a low but clear voice, "Soup."

Mrs. Nan'an Hou ordered someone to fetch ginseng soup, and served the eldest princess to drink a dose.The eldest princess's withered complexion improved obviously, and Xie Moru knew that this must be the ginseng soup made by more than a hundred years old ginseng. After a dose of ginseng soup, the eldest princess seemed to gather some strength, and said, "Go down, I will Talk to Princess Min."

Mrs. Nan'anhou and the fourth concubine went down, the eldest princess signaled with her eyes, Xie Moru went to sit in the grand teacher's chair where Mrs. Nan'anhou sat first, Xie Moru looked at the eldest princess, but did not speak.In fact, she didn't have much friendship with the eldest princess, and she just said some nonsense "take care of your health" greetings.Xie Moru believed that the eldest princess did not invite her to say these things.

Seeing that Xie Moru sat down, the eldest princess averted her eyes, turned her head to stare at the dark-pattern brocade tent above her head, and said softly, "In my life, there will be no lack of prosperity and wealth, and it is also a blessing to be able to start well and finish well."

Xie Moru didn't respond, and Princess Ning Rong didn't seem to need any response. She murmured like she was talking to herself, "I was able to start well and end well because I was empty-handed from the beginning to the end. People offered me, like offering an archway. I The reason why my mother was able to die well is because she never let go of the power in her hands. People fear her like the gods of heaven and earth... I really hate Sister Fusheng. When she was alive, I seldom felt happy. When she died, I'm even more unhappy... I'm actually sorry for her, hey, you are more annoying than her... But, who told you to have a life... You guys, one day you will control the world... Back then, when my mother was dying A while ago, there was a secret decree given to Sister Fusheng. After she passed away, His Majesty ordered people to search her mansion, but the secret decree has not been seen. Many years have passed, and His Majesty’s rule is as solid as gold, and no secret decree will have any influence on His Majesty. ... If the King of Min defeats Jiangnan, this matter need not be mentioned... If the King of Min pacifies Jiangnan, the situation has already been achieved... Your Majesty will not treat his son badly, but Princess Min may not be the Crown Princess... This matter , sooner or later someone will bring it up again...you know what you have in mind..." Princess Ningrong finished speaking intermittently, with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

Xie Moru frowned slightly, as Princess Ning Rong said, this secret decree is of little significance to Emperor Mu Yuan. Emperor Mu Yuan has been on the throne for many years, but there is a secret decree. Not even a fart.According to Emperor Mu Yuan's current prestige, how could he take an outdated secret decree into his eyes.However, Xie Moru still said, "I accept His Highness's wishes."

Princess Ning Rong said, "The Marquis of Beichang and the governor of Shaanxi, Gansu and Li...the Fusheng Mansion was searched back then..."

Xie Moru's jaw.

After finishing what she wanted to say, Princess Ningrong turned her eyes and looked at Xie Moru again. That glance was not affectionate and deeply tired. Princess Ningrong said, "Don't follow the old path, go."

Xie Moru said goodbye.

Princess Ningrong's last words to her family were to keep the filial piety for 36 months.

When parents died, three years of filial piety was usually 27 months. Princess Ning Rong only asked her children to observe three years of filial piety. It must be said that Princess Ning Rong wanted her family to avoid the worries of the current situation.

Regarding the affairs of Princess Ning Rong, the royal family gave the princess the due courtesy, and Xie Moru also sent a memorial ceremony. She paid homage in the past, and when she returned to the mansion, Xie Moru couldn't help but secretly said that she was about to die. His words are also good.Rao is the Eldest Princess Ningrong, this death is actually a bit cute.

Concubine Xie lamented the death of Princess Ningrong once, but she didn't know that the fifth prince was also at a critical moment of life and death.

Feng Feiyu felt deep admiration for the fifth prince. Although this fifth prince, His Royal Highness the King of Min, knew nothing about military command and his subordinates were average, the tenacity and indomitableness shown by the King of Min and his party during the escape made Feng Feiyu even more impressed. I feel that even as an opponent, this is still a respectable opponent.

Because the opponent is respectable, Feng Feiyu looked at the remnant soldiers with broken armor and blood stains beside King Min, and sincerely persuaded him to surrender again, Feng Feiyu said, "Your Highness, if I have to do it, I don't want to hurt His Highness King Min. Life. In fact, His Majesty also wants to invite His Royal Highness the King of Fujian to be a guest in the past to make some preparations for the peace talks between the two countries in the future. Your Highness is a daughter of gold, a good man, a virtuous wife and a filial son, and a noble status. See you. As long as His Highness is willing to surrender, all the guards around His Highness will be preserved. It is Your Highness, if you can promote the peace between the two countries, it will be a merit in the present and benefit in the future. Good name."

The King of Min looked at Feng Feiyu and said in a deep voice, "Jingjiang was originally a vassal of our dynasty. How can there be a theory of two countries? As the prince of the current dynasty, a first-rank vassal king, how can he disregard his shame because of fear of death and greed for life, and surrender to the rebels because of the marshal's kind words. This king still said the same thing, Marshal Feng's character and ability, it is a pity to surrender to the rebels. But today, this king died at the hands of the marshal, it is not considered an insult to this king!"

Feng Feiyu sighed, "If Your Highness has anything to say, I can convey it to His Highness."

The King of Min really had his last words, he said, "This king's literary talent and martial arts are mediocre, and there is nothing to show off. Fortunately, this king has not failed his parents, wife and children in this life. I think it is God's will to bid farewell and leave today. This king met This catastrophe has nothing to do with the soldiers under his command. The generals of General Liu have repeatedly asked the king to guard the defense line. It is the king who has not listened to General Liu's advice. I asked Marshal Feng to convey to the king that there were heavy casualties in the Jiangnan war. The imperial court gives generous sympathy to the soldiers who died. When Jiangnan is pacified, I will ask my wife and children to stay in the feudal land forever."

Feng Feiyu really felt that the old enemy Liu Fufeng was not out of luck, and the King of Min wanted to excuse him before he died. With such a lord, it is no wonder that his subjects are loyal in return.After the King of Fujian's confession, Feng Feiyu's face turned solemn, and he waved his hand to issue the military order, "Archers, get ready!"

The archers are ready.

King Min is also ready to be a hedgehog.

But, suddenly, the earth trembled, and King Min thought it was shaking, thinking that dying in the hands of the thief would be better than being a hedgehog.But then, dust billowed in the distance first, and the sound of countless horseshoes trampling the ground came, and those wolf-like cavalry stepped on the dust on the dirt road almost instantly.Along with the cavalry, there was also a flag with a white background and a blue border. On the clan flag, there were two large characters embroidered on it: Nan'an!
Feng Feiyu's expression suddenly changed!
