pungent peasant girl

Chapter 425
It is rare to have guests in the consort's mansion, but it is much more lively.

At the dinner table, Luo Ziyan and his party chatted wildly.

Meng Qianyan also learned about the situation in Mingzhou.

Everything is fine in Mingzhou now, whether it is the Jinglin Martial Arts or Luoshi's silk shop, including the parents in their hometown, Lin Feng also went to see it before coming.

Everything is fine.

The family is fine, there are no worries, so Meng Qianyan is relieved.

This lunch was eaten until evening.

It was getting dark before Xu Chenyuan and Lin Feng left together.

The setting sun is like fire, and the autumn wind is rustling.

The branches are blown by the autumn wind.

The whole camp was quiet.

The soldiers were all exhausted, and many others were injured, and then they were bandaged by military doctors.

In the central tent, Mo Yun sat down on the couch and leaned to one side.

Daoist Liu Yuan, who had been sitting in the tent, looked at him, "I heard that the siege was not going well?"

"It's not very difficult." Mo Yun said indifferently: "If it wasn't for the behind-the-scenes words, maybe we would have injured fewer people."

Daoist Liu Yuan nodded, "I also know about that couple. Their strength should not be underestimated."

"I know."

"Xiao Yun, I want to remind you, especially Luo Ziyan, this person may not be as simple as you imagined."

"Really? He's not simple?"

Daoist Liu Yuan stood up, "He is a person who keeps secrets."

"I'll pay attention."

"That's all right. How are you? You're not hurt?"

"No, very few people in our entire camp were injured. What is really tragic is that the useless military mansion is as incompetent as I imagined."

"It seems that you know the situation in the capital very well."

"Naturally, Daoist, you have to know that I have been making arrangements in the capital all these years. The military mansion is a place where I have deliberately relaxed and never controlled it."

"What about the Ministry of War?" Daoist Liu Yuan asked straightforwardly.

Mo Yun paused, "I don't think the Ministry of War is capable of holding me, Mo Yun!"

"It's good if you have this confidence." Daoist Liu Yuan stroked his beard and sat back to his original position.

Mo Yun's gaze followed him, "Master Dao, you don't seem to be planning to help me? I'm very surprised why you are always by my side."

"Because my disciple, he asked me before he died, no matter what, you are the blood of Concubine Mei, and I will definitely protect your safety. I am a Taoist priest, and a Taoist priest should practice Taoism with a pure heart, so I will not really interfere in the government affairs .”

Mo Yun frowned, and there was a trace of puzzlement in his phoenix eyes, "Daoist, does that late uncle really like my mother and concubine that much?"

"of course."

"Even if my concubine mother is already the emperor's woman?"

"of course."

Mo Yun shook his head, "I really don't understand at all why there are men in this world who regard women as more important than life and country."

Daoist Liu Yuan was not too surprised by Mo Yun's words.

He didn't respond to his question, but said: "Xiao Yun, what you want is the throne, don't think about other things."

"I know, Daoist."

"My lord!"

The curtain of the camp tent was lifted, Ruo first walked in.

Mo Yun looked up at him.

"how?"

"Reporting to the lord, the subordinates have already lightened the camp. This time we have injured 3000 people, and now there are 5000 people who can be transferred at any time."

"What about the military casualties?"

"In the capital, news has also spread that more than 6000 people have been injured in the military mansion."

Hearing this, Mo Yun raised the corners of his lips, "Very good."

"However, my lord, my subordinates were thinking just now that it is Luo Ziyan who is in charge of the military mansion and the Ministry of War. This time, they have suffered a disadvantage. Luo Ziyan should not sit still. They will definitely work harder on defense The subordinate wants to ask the prince, should we wait for our other [-] reinforcements to arrive before attacking?"

"No need." Mo Yun didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Today, take a good rest for a day, and tomorrow night, we will attack again!"

"But my lord, my subordinates are afraid of an ambush."

"So what if there is an ambush? If there is an ambush, there will be one. At that time, we will send a team of vanguards to break his ambush first, and then attack the city after breaking it." Mo Yun sighed, "If you want to know first, not only We have reinforcements, and the emperor will also order the troops from outside to come in, and at that time, our chances of winning may not be great."

After listening to Mo Yun's explanation, Ruoxian suddenly realized, "It turns out that the prince planned it this way."

"Ah."

"Very well, the subordinates will prepare according to the prince's order, and attack again tomorrow night!"

Although the military government has been thinking about suppressing the news of the defeat.

But in the end there were so many wounded soldiers, this matter was still not covered.

When the news spread into the capital, there was another burst of panic in the capital.

Many timid businessmen dare not come out to do business anymore.

Day or night, the streets are deserted.

Mrs. Wu has always been worried about her new residence in the Luo family, and sent people to the son-in-law's mansion to greet her several times.

Meng Qianyan was afraid that she would be anxious, so at night, he took Luo Ziyan to the new house to sit for a while.

It was already night when they came out.

The street was deserted and there was no one there.

Only Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan were walking casually on the street hand in hand.

Just as they were approaching the gate of the son-in-law's mansion, suddenly the sound of galloping horses' hooves reached their ears.

The sound is getting louder and louder.

Luo Ziyan subconsciously stopped, and pushed Meng Qianyan behind him.

The horse appeared soon, and it was Qiying who rushed to him.

"Qiying, what are you doing here?"

When Meng Qianyan saw him, his heart sank.

"My son-in-law, princess, it's not good, the Seventeenth Prince's army is attacking again."

"So fast—" Meng Qianyan was surprised.

"Yes, the ditches and ropes that my subordinate set up last night have all been broken. My subordinates have made arrangements at the end of the rope. As long as the rope is passive, there will be bamboo poles falling over there. Now, the bamboo poles have fallen. "

After hearing this, Luo Ziyan nodded slightly, "Very good, Qiying, you did a good job."

"But, son-in-law, what shall we do now?"

"Qianyan, go and put on our armor, the battle is coming, we can only fight!"

The night was like ink, and the cold wind howled.

On the city wall, a group of archers rushed up, and the leader was Meng Qianyan himself.

Behind her are mostly the students she has taught.

She stood on the city wall, looking at the darkness coming from a distance.

With a low growl, "Listen to my order. After I count to three, we will shoot the arrows at the same time."

"One, two, three, let go!"

Feathered arrows rained down through the air, densely packed, and shot directly into the dark area.

However, there was a clanging sound in the distance.

Meng Qianyan frowned, grabbed the torch and looked down, the army that attacked this time was already prepared.

They raised all their shields, forming a protective shield.

All the feathered arrows were shot on the shield, completely unable to hurt the opponent.

And the opponent is still advancing in this state, and the speed is extremely fast.
