Tang Ge

Chapter 64
Xiaohe felt a cold chill on the back of her neck for a moment, and looked behind Li Shimin behind him, only to see Fang Xuanling staring at the sky, as if the person who winked at her just now was not him.Xiaohe's teeth were itchy with hatred, and his heart was beaten by this old fox again.For a moment, she felt two cold gazes digging fiercely at her face, and had to force herself to face the reality and turned her head to face Li Shimin's sharp-edged face, forced a smile and said, "Hey, you Do you think you are a little too impulsive, everything is easy to discuss. Why do you fight and kill when you have nothing to do?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I couldn't help but want to slap myself, what the hell are you talking about?He couldn't help saying a dirty word in his heart, and sure enough, Li Shimin's face became more and more gloomy, and after a while, he slowly said, "Get out of the way!"

It's far scarier for him to speak like this than for him to curse loudly.For a moment, Xiaohe only felt chills on his back and his whole body, but he had to pull himself together and reluctantly said: "A hero doesn't suffer from immediate losses. You ran out rashly like this, and the enemy's morale is just right. You are a dignified nobleman , It is not worth it to lose your life in such a muddleheaded way. Besides, you would rather kill Princess Pingyang than let her go, because you were afraid that she would get angry and mess up. Can't hold your breath?"

Seeing that Li Shimin's frown eased slightly after speaking, he stepped forward and grabbed his arm, and said softly: "You have always been shrewd and capable, but today I am afraid that you are also very angry and confused, this revenge must be avenged, King Yong'an and others It must also be rescued. But there are so many soldiers here, why do you need to go in person? Can you not even trust yourself in the person you have chosen?"

Li Shimin frowned and said nothing, but his hand holding the saber gradually relaxed.Xiaohe quickly took advantage of the situation and took off the armor that was draped over his shoulders.Handed it to Fang Xuanling who was following behind, and then winked at Qin Qiong and the others who were still kneeling on the ground.These people are goblins who have been in the officialdom for a long time. Of course they have sharp eyes and ears. I saw Qin Qiong hurried forward with small steps, bowed to Li Shimin and said: "It is not convenient to move troops here. If the prince trusts me, the last general Go forward, and the enemy will surely be defeated."

Yin Kaishan also ran up and expressed his willingness to go together.Li Shimin's eyebrows gradually eased, he turned around and helped the two of them up, and said in a deep voice: "The two generals are willing to go, it is better than me. Now that the bandits have won, they must return to the army. can be victorious."

The two took their orders with a bang.Li Shimin said: "Time does not wait for me. It is best to lead the troops forward immediately. I will not say more. When the two generals return from victory, I will invite the two generals to drink three hundred cups of celebration wine." .”

Qin Shubao and Yin Kaishan laughed loudly, bowed to Li Shimin again, turned around and were about to go out.Xiaohe breathed a sigh of relief just now, thinking that she should be fine now.At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, as if a large number of people were coming, everyone was stunned, and saw the tent move, and a soldier came in and reported: "Princess Pingyang's tent is under the leadership of General Ma, and he said that he has something important to report to the King of Qin. "

Li Shimin frowned, thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Let him in."

Everyone felt that something was wrong. Since Li Xiuning crossed the river that day, he brought his troops to Huizhou to rescue Chai Shao. There has been no news these days.However, Princess Pingyang has been leading the army alone since she joined the army with her father and brother, and she has never lost anything.His resourcefulness and military talent can no longer be measured by ordinary women.So everyone is not worried.Now when they heard that her close general Ma Sanbao led the troops, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, thinking that something must have happened.

After a while, I saw a black-faced man in military uniform walking in hastily. When he saw Li Shimin, he knelt down suddenly, with a weary expression and a sad voice: "The last general is not good at protecting the frame, and the tired princess is now being captured by others." .It’s a real loss to the King of Qin.”

Everyone was shocked, Li Shimin grabbed his shoulders and said in a deep voice, "What's going on, please explain clearly."

Ma Sanbao replied: "These days, we have been sneaking carefully, not daring to reveal any rumors. However, no matter whether we searched openly or unannounced, we couldn't find the shadow of the son-in-law. The princess was anxious, and happened to meet Yu Chigong and Xunxiang. The army, the princess said that Yuchi Gong was brave and good at fighting, and it was not appropriate to face him at this time, so she avoided it. But just after walking not far, she heard that King Yongan was leading troops to attack Lu Chongmao. The princess estimated that Yu Chigong and others would go to help, afraid King Yong'an led General He Panren and more than 20 people to report to Xiaolu when he made a mistake. I waited to retreat to Meiliangchuan to wait. But we waited for two days without seeing them come back. Later, we sent troops to check. The whole army was wiped out, all the generals were taken captive, and the princess was even missing. I don't know if she was taken captive too. It's just that we have been hiding all the way from Chang'an, and we are unknown to outsiders. Even if they If we catch the princess, we probably won’t know her identity for a while, so we won’t dare to go directly to rescue her. We are afraid that the princess’s identity will be leaked, which will make it even more dangerous. So we came back and begged the king of Qin for help.”

Li Shimin pondered for a while, seeing that he was still kneeling on the ground and refused to get up, he went up to help him up and said: "You have done a good job, what I am most afraid of now is that the third sister's identity will be leaked. If Lu thief I found out that, as a princess with golden branches and jade leaves, not only will she suffer a catastrophe, but I, Tang Yi, will be ashamed of it. The blow to the morale of the army is even more immeasurable."

Fang Xuanling said slowly: "The plan for now is to spread false news that Princess Pingyang is still in the prince's camp. Even if they find out that there is a woman in King Yong'an's tent, they will not suspect that it is Her Royal Highness. Then lead the army to step up Attack Xia County and try to rescue the princess as soon as possible."

Li Shimin shook his head slowly and said, "It's useless, it's more obvious this way, and it has attracted the attention of others."

Ma Sanbao said anxiously: "Should we just wait like this without doing anything?"

Li Shimin was slightly taken aback, but did not speak.Fang Xuanling pondered for a while, then nodded heavily and said: "It seems that this is the only way to do it."

Ma Sanbao was furious, and suddenly bowed to Li Shimin, and said in a deep voice: "In this case, the last general will lead the Niangzi army into Xia County to snatch the princess back. My life is given by the princess, live a long life!" These years are enough, even if I die with that thief today, I still have to save the princess."

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, as if impatient, Li Daozong hurried forward when he saw this.He grabbed Ma Sanbao's arm and persuaded him: "General, don't be reckless, don't fail to save the princess but hurt her instead." Then he said to Li Shimin: "I have a method, and I don't know if it will work."

Li Shimin gave Ma Sanbao a cold look, and replied, "Say it."
