Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination - Chapter 97
Pei Yunxiao seemed to lie in the cotton pile, but also seemed to be lost in the thick fog.
She stumbled to find a way out, but couldn’t find it.
Suddenly, a little coolness came from the ankle, as if the tail of a dragonfly touched the ripples in the pool.
Pei Yunxiao opened his eyes abruptly and saw Tang Hang sitting by the bed, leaning over, smearing something on her leg with his hand.
Pei Yunxiao looked down. Her two calves were bare, bare, and exposed outside the quilt, and Tang Hang’s breath even fell on her skin from time to time.
“Brother.” She was startled and curled her legs subconsciously.
Tang Hang reacted very quickly, and pressed her leg: “Don’t rub off the medicine you just took.”
Pei Yunxiao’s cheeks quietly turned red with the warm touch of the palm of her hand from her calf.
“Wake up?” Tang Hang put down the ointment in her hand and sat down next to her: “How do you feel? Would you like to eat something?”
Pei Yunxiao touched her empty stomach, hungry for too long, as if too hungry: “Well, I want to drink some gruel.”
“The outside has been prepared for you, I’ll let someone bring it.” Tang Heng walked out quickly, seeming to have a few words with the people outside, and then quickly turned back.
“This is… the General’s Mansion?” Pei Yunxiao only then looked at the surrounding environment.
“Yes.” Tang Hang replied, “I don’t worry about you living elsewhere.”
“Then House Pei?”
“There is nothing major in the Pei mansion, that is, Pei Yunji died of a sudden illness. Madam Mu Linghou Ji cut off her father and daughter from Patriarch Pei, and Mu Linghou Shangzhezi scolded Pei Nao.” Tang Hang said calmly.
“You killed Pei Yunji!” Pei Yunxiao was taken aback.
Tang Heng seemed to not want to say more, just as a maid served the porridge, Tang Heng helped Pei Yunxiao to sit down, picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew it, and handed it to Pei Yunxiao’s lips.
“I…I’ll come by myself.” Pei Yunxiao wanted to pick it up, but Tang Hang avoided it.
She felt sweet for no reason, and the corners of her lips twitched, and she drank the rice porridge.
She did not ask Tang Heng about Pei Yunji again. Since he didn’t want to say it, let him do it. Anyway, she believed that Tang Heng must have done a good job of the aftermath and don’t have to worry about it by herself.
After drinking a whole bowl of gruel in one mouthful at a time, Pei Yunxiao felt his body warmed up.
“Brother…”
“Xiaoxiao.” Tang Hang interrupted her.
“Do you remember what you called me before you passed out?”
Pei Yunxiao was taken aback, and then lowered his head somewhat shyly, before repeating it in a low voice: “Ah, Ahang.”
Tang Heng leaned forward and gently embraced her in his arms: “Xiaoxiao, I blame me for not protecting you.”
“It has nothing to do with you, I was careless.” Pei Yun said dullly.
“By the way, I haven’t had time to ask you, this time I went to Beijing for errands, but it went well?” She cleverly diverted the topic.
“Successful.” Tang Heng let go of her: “This time, I have dug the foundation of the family directly. Your Majesty is very satisfied.”
Pei Yunxiao is a little worried: “The family has been entrenched for many years, and the power should not be underestimated. A hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff.”
“I’m afraid, they will get tangled together and come back.”
“I also thought of this.” Tang Heng said, “But it’s okay. Soldiers will come to cover, and water will come to cover. We see tricks.”
Pei Yunxiao nodded. Now that Tang Heng was prepared, she didn’t say much.
However, Tang Xing paused, and some hesitated to say: “Xiaoxiao, I… have some words, I don’t know you, will you listen to me.”
“Say, what else are we avoiding?” Pei Yunxiao asked in confusion.
“I…I want to say, are you willing to restore your identity? Not later, but as soon as possible.” Tang Heng said, considering it.
Pei Yun listened quietly, she wanted to hear Tang Heng’s reason.
“I didn’t interfere with your decision. I also know that you are different from the girl next to you. You are not willing to marry someone early, to be a husband and a child, and to be imprisoned in the back house. But this time, I am really a little scared.” Tang Heng continued Said.
“I dare not think, if something really happened to you, what should I do? I can’t be by your side all the time. The only way I can think of is this.”
“A Heng.” Pei Yunxiao held Tang Heng’s hand and smiled: “I know what you mean and what you want.”
“Well, I promise you. As long as I’m not with you in the future, I will let Jinnian and the others follow me overtly and secretly, so you can rest assured?”
Tang Hang thought for a long time, and finally sighed: “Okay. I respect your decision.”
A wave of warmth melted in Pei Yunxiao’s heart. She was really lucky to get a lover who respected and understood her and cared so much in this era.
The two were relatively speechless, but the warm atmosphere lingered around them.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and then a human voice sounded.
“General, the servant in the palace ordered the general to enter the palace urgently!”
Tang Hang and Pei Yunxiao were both surprised.
“What do you know?” Tang Hang’s tone condensed slightly.
“King Rong, it’s the opposite!”
Pei Yunxiao looked at Tang Hang, as expected, he also saw a huge shock in his eyes.
King Rong, the King of Xiaoyao, who is known as his brother and friend, has actually rebelled?
This is a plot not in the original book.
It must be because of the change in the plot, and many things have also changed.
Tang Heng had just returned from Jiangnan in order to search for tenants and arrange for Qimin. Could it be that this is the counterattack that the family intends to set off?
“Xiaoxiao, I’m going to the palace, so you have a good rest.” Tang Heng hurriedly changed court clothes.
Pei Yunxiao was also particularly anxious for a while. He opened the quilt and helped Tang Heng get dressed quickly without regard to his shirt. Only then did he watch him stride out.
This will be another **** storm!
When Tang Heng came back, it was already late at night.
Pei Yunxiao was not sleepy, sitting on the side of the bed and waiting for him to come back.
The door was pushed open, and Tang Heng looked gloomy.
“A Hang, what’s the matter?”
Tang Heng took off his shirt and closed his eyes: “The King Rong instigated the soldiers from many places in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as the soldiers and horses that he personally hid. He turned the other way around as soon as I left.”
“In less than half a month, I went down to the six cities in the south of the Yangtze River with no effort. Almost every time the city official Kaicheng surrendered. He also blocked the channel to report to the capital, which wasted the opportunity.”
“Your Majesty’s will, let me take the Gyeonggi Guards to counter the rebellion, and leave now.”
Pei Yunxiao’s heart sank: “Is it because of the search for tenant tenants?”
Tang Heng shook his head: “This is at best an excuse, Rong Wang has already prepared.”
“The memorial report sent by the local official at the risk of his death mentioned that King Rong’s command was full of good soldiers and good horses. The monks and priests in his fief were not only to escape the commission and service of the government, but also the private soldiers he trained. As for the horses…”
Pei Yunxiao’s mind suddenly felt aroused: “Ma Chong! He swallowed the horse at the Luozhou Racecourse? Right!”
Tang Hang nodded.
“That’s the case. It’s no wonder that Ma Chong committed suicide inexplicably fearing crime and let all clues be cut off. It turned out that he was afraid of finding King Rong’s body. It turned out that the great prince fell on the horse, and they planned it in order to kill His Majesty’s oldest heir. .” Pei Yunxiao finally connected the previous things together.
“Xiaoxiao!” Tang Hang suddenly grabbed Pei Yunxiao’s wrist: “This time, I always feel that it is not that simple. It is impossible to guarantee that nothing else will happen in the capital.”
“Xiaoxiao, you have to follow me, I can’t keep you in the capital.”
Pei Yunxiao was extremely surprised: “You mean, you want to take me to counter the rebellion? But where is your Majesty…”
“Your Majesty only knows that you have applied for leave due to illness. I will let Brother Rong Qing and Mu Yuan cover this matter for you.” Tang Heng insisted.
“Xiaoxiao, if I choose to take someone out of this place of right and wrong, that person can only be you, understand?”
Pei Yunxiao’s heart shook, and finally nodded: “Okay, I’ll go with you!”
The autumn night is light and cold, the crescent moon is like a bow, and the night wind is like a knife.
Tang Hang is wearing silver armor and holding a long gun. Behind him are hunting banners and neatly lined up soldiers. Chi Yuan, Zhou Bi and a group of lieutenants were guarding the horse behind him, and Pei Yunxiao was also in light armor, hiding in the night.
“Set off!”
Horseshoes lined up, heading south.
After running for three days and three nights, Tang Heng commanded the Gyeonggi Guards to cross the river during the night, and happened to encounter the imperial army that had been defeated by the Rongwang rebels in a row.
This army is extremely chaotic. It is composed of the army that was repulsed and broken up by the King Rong rebels.
As for their original army, some people took refuge in the rebels, some died in battle, and some took advantage of the chaos and became deserters. They were torn apart, like a pile of scattered sand, piled up casually. The number was quite large, but the combat effectiveness was basically lacking.
These people are no different from a group of miscellaneous soldiers in front of Gyeonggi Guards, who is trained by Tang Heng himself and has a clean military discipline.
Even the Rongwang rebels on the opposite side were more like them than they looked like.
As soon as Tang Heng encountered this army, he immediately discovered their problem. This is also a common problem for the soldiers in the Dali territory.
The defenders at the border sometimes think of training from time to time in the war, and they have to rely on themselves if they want to survive.
But these people, they receive the royal government’s military pay, but they have nothing to do for a long time. Bet some money today, and tease a girl tomorrow, it’s so cool.
Therefore, when King Rong’s rebels came over, they were completely powerless to parry.
If Tang Heng wants to settle this trouble, he must first solve these people.
“General.” When Pei Yunxiao entered the account, Tang Heng was deducing something at the table.
“I heard that you have set up a competition platform in the school field. What are you doing?” Pei Yunxiao strode over and asked in confusion.
“The rules in the military always speak with strength. The rebels are close at hand. If we don’t regain this group of stragglers early, we still have to lose the battle!” Tang Hang said.
“This is the fastest way.” Pei Yunxiao agreed: “But even if they listen to you for a while, they may not be convinced. After all, they are all in different military camps, and each has a superior.”
“If you don’t accept it, you have to hold back!” Tang Heng said, “There will be opportunities for them to do it in the future. Now the rebels are about to fight across the river. If they can’t hold the ferry in a small area, then you have to serve it, just jump in the river!”
Pei Yunxiao couldn’t help being so handsome. She suddenly discovered that Tang Hang, who was leading the army, looked very different from usual.
There is a touch of a different kind of heroic and domineering.
