The Crown Prince’s New Female Staff - Chapter 45
Breaking the gate means that Wang Yue disclosed to the Xiongnu the military situation near the inside and outside of Daqiguan without any cover. The layout directly blocked Amur Khan’s prying eyes.
However, outside the customs, the military center near Wang Ji did not change much, and Amur Khan also got an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Wang Yue’s thoughts coincided with those of the Xiongnu, but in this battle, the Xiongnu had always been in a position of being despised, and even Xie Yu believed that even if the Xiongnu was difficult to deal with, there was still a way to make the Xiongnu retreat.
Therefore, the strength of the Huns themselves was ignored.
But this invisibly increased Wang Yue’s bargaining power, and also caused a lot of trouble for Qi Liangye, Xie Yu and others.
.
Xie Yu has always been a person who takes one step and sees three steps. She took the secret letter from Saibei, and after looking through it a few times, she said to everyone: “The Xiongnu has assembled an army, and all the refugees from the refugee camp opened by the Xie family army have been recruited back.”
Because of the successive droughts of the Xiongnu, Xie Jiajun had previously opened a refugee shelter to accommodate the refugees who came from the Xiongnu.
Now that the war has started, many refugees have been recruited back. For Xie Jiajun and Xie Yu, this is not good news.
“There shouldn’t be any movement so early,”
Xie Yu pondered, she had a faint uneasiness in her heart, but she didn’t know where the unease came from.
Now they are about to reach the Jiaoliang Plain, which is only a few dozen miles away from Qianduling. Now that he has left Beijing and passed through Liuzhou, it is still Huo Shijun’s hometown.
But they just passed by, Xie Yu spread out the pen and paper, and wrote down the contents of the letter one by one in front of everyone.
“On March 19, the 22nd year of Xuande, the minister Xie Yucheng saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. On the way to Qianpai Mountain, an unknown person appeared to block him. The ministers and others were worried and doubtful. I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not miss any doubts in the capital, especially Be careful, Wangyue, pay attention to the military deployment around the king’s city, and be fully prepared. Yours sincerely, Xie Yu.”
After eloquently writing a piece of paper, Xie Rongruo, the male servant entrusted with the important task, whistled, and a black figure circled from the horizon.
It turned out to be a bird of prey, hovering above everyone’s heads and slowly falling, Xie Rongruo took out a piece of meat from the back basket, and after it was finished eating, he tied the envelope to the bird of prey’s legs, whistled again, and the bird of prey flew away. The figure disappeared after a few breaths.
This is an eagle falcon kept in captivity by the Xie family. It is specially used to deliver urgent reports. If Xie Rong is one of the eagle keepers, he usually travels with at least two eagles by his side.
Usually, the Xiongnu assembled their troops in mid-April, but now it is a month earlier, which is really not like Amur Khan’s style.
After another day, Xie Yu and others entered Qianduling, while Xie Rongruo ran straight to the inn of the Xie family.
The killer behind him in the distance changed his expression and immediately asked his superiors.
“Prince! It’s not good!”
The tall, tall, bronze-skinned man held a telescopic mirror and scolded the subordinate in the Hun language, “Stupid!”
The man’s face is young, his eyebrows are gloomy, his eyebrows are deep, and he has a killing aura that is not like an ordinary Huns. Seeing the traces of Xie Yu and others, the corners of his mouth lift slightly, “This woman is very smart, Tahange, You lead a group of people to ambush at the entrance of Qianduling, so you don’t need to follow them.”
“I heard my father talk about Xie Yu many times. I thought she was a hero in women’s middle school. Who would have thought that she would only play such low-level tricks.”
Qianduling is rugged and difficult to navigate, and ordinary horses can only stand up slightly.
“See, that kid who ran away is calling for help.”
Pointing to the thin figure who had parted ways with everyone, Wendurger squinted slightly, stared at the group of black figures, and smiled smugly.
More than a dozen miles away, Xie Yu and the others entered Qianduling and had been leading the horse for a long while, but unexpectedly, no pursuers caught up.
“The situation is not right, go back the same way.”
Sure enough, after a while, Wendurge saw a group of people coming out with horses.
“Don’t do it yet, ask people to withdraw and follow their movements.”
The spring breeze roared, and the head-on was painful. Fortunately, everyone wore masks on their faces, obeyed the instructions, and returned on their horses. But after leaving the Thousand Withering Ridge, there was still no movement.
When Xie Yu’s face tightened, she immediately took someone to the official road, and Xie Rongruo, who hurriedly brought the rescuers, looked at Xie Yu who suddenly appeared, and everyone was shocked.
“master!”
Xie Rongruo shouted strangely, Xie Yu felt chills in her heart, and said with the deceased Xie family who came over, “Go to the station first.”
Wendurge smacked his lips, “Follow them closely along the way, don’t make a sound, there is a stronghold in front of them, we can’t beat them.”
If you can’t beat it, run away. This is the rule of survival for the Xiongnu for thousands of years.
However, the task of Wen Durg and others on this trip was to understand the terrain outside the Qi Dynasty Pass, which was definitely a difficult task for Wen Durg and other Huns.
If the enemy starts attacking and then lurks in the back, what exactly does the enemy want?
Cats and mice have always been aimed at success, but without so many detours and calculations, Xie Yu was sure almost instantly that the secret enemy would not kill them in an instant.
So what is his purpose?
It is absolutely impossible to be from Miaojiang, they do not have this kind of strength.
The woman narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the caravan that was being refurbished next to the station, and told a dead soldier of the Xie family: “You pretend to be one of them and see if there are any suspicious people on the road.”
Immediately, he looked at Mei Xiu, “Put your tracking Gu on them.”
Miao Jiang’s tracking Gu was good at searching, and Mei Xiu released a dense string of Gu worms, some of which followed a few dead soldiers, and some of them followed the official road.
These Gu worms often return automatically within a hundred miles, but if the enemy is really nearby for at most two days, the Gu worm will send back news.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move, fleeing in the Gyeonggi area hundreds of kilometers away from the capital, I will definitely not dare to march with great fanfare.
The dead soldiers of the Xie family have all undergone extremely precise training. The master said a word, and they knew the meaning behind it incidentally. Xie Abao stuffed a bag of silver into the director of the caravan, and the director smiled and collected the money. They changed the caravan’s attire, and several people changed their previous demeanor, as if they were middle-aged men seeking a living in the caravan.
Looking at the group of people walking slowly from a distance, Xie Abao and Xie Ruyi couldn’t wait to surround Xie Yu, “Master, what’s going on?”
“Let me think about it.”
The woman rubbed her forehead tiredly. She was very tired recently, and she didn’t know whether it was because her body was too cold or something else.
The Frost Art did cause some damage to the woman’s body, but these injuries were far too insignificant compared to her life.
So everyone had to stop for one night, and with the handle of the post station, they finally fell asleep comfortably.
.
Qianjing, Prince’s House.
When Qi Liangye received Xie Yu’s letter, his eyes turned cold, and he called in Xiao Yi.
Recently, Jin Yiwei washed the imperial court with blood because of Wang Yue’s remnants. For a while, Xiao Yi’s suffocation became more and more heavy, and some officials from the family were so frightened that they walked away.
“Check out the Imperial Forest Army and the Imperial Guard.” At the end, the man remembered Xie Yu’s words, turned the wrench on his hand, and added, “And the cavalry battalion.”
There were 20,000 horses in Qianjing, of which the Xiaoqi battalion accounted for the largest part. The battalion commander, Di Xiangkun, was a third-rank Beijing official and a senior in the court. Logically speaking, Qi Liang’s night investigation should not have gone to him.
But the imperial power is high, and the subject is the subject after all. There is no reason for Qi Liangye to look at the subject’s face and act.
At this time, Eunuch Tokugawa quietly entered the study and said to Qi Liangye:
“His Royal Highness, what should I do with that eagle?”
“That’s Ayu’s eagle, ask someone to feed him some meat, don’t worry about it, if you’re willing to stay in the house, you’ll be able to take care of it.”
“Master Li from the side hospital wants to see you.”
Qi Liangye raised his eyebrows slightly, Li Aru usually stayed in the yard without taking a step, protecting the child in his stomach like a calf.
“What is she doing here?”
“I don’t know, the old slave only said that there is something important to report.”
Xiao Yi and Li Aru don’t usually meet each other very much, but now they are all his own, so Qi Liangye let her in without any scruples.
I saw a beautiful-faced woman with pale lips, supporting her high bulging belly, and entered the room awkwardly.
Qi Liangye and her are relatives of the family, and Li Aru was named a county magistrate when he was young. The two of them didn’t communicate much, but they couldn’t see her, a pregnant woman, standing with a big belly and talking to herself.
“How many months?”
“Twins, it’s almost three months.”
“Why is it so big?”
Li Aru supported her waist and said as usual: “Miao Jiang’s children are like this. Li Yichun and I both have Gu veins. They must have been born with natural Gu veins, and they will also be able to practice Gu veins in the future.”
Qi Liangye’s eyes paused slightly, “Do all pregnant women work so hard?”
“Naturally,” Li Aru glanced at him and knew what he was thinking, and immediately sneered, “Your Highness, you should first think about whether Ayu is willing to give birth to you a child.”
“Naturally willing.”
Qi Liangye couldn’t hold back his face, but he still said it in his mouth.
Xiao Yi wiped away the sweat for Li Aru inwardly, and felt that she was very courageous, and then heard Qi Liangye ask, “What’s the matter with you?”
“Miao Jiangmei’s family has a little girl, Mei Liu.”
“What’s up?”
Qi Liangye’s brows twitched, his intuition was not very good.
“She sent me a letter saying she wants to marry you.”
“puff–“
Qi Liangye and Xiao Yi spit out a sip of tea at the same time. Xiao Yi was alright, Qi Liangye stood up straight away, his usual calm demeanor was like descending from a divine altar, and he was extremely embarrassed.
“Let her go!”
Qi Liangye’s voice was a little gloomy, but Li Aru still sat in the same position, looking at Qi Liangye with schadenfreude, “She has already set off from Miaojiang, and she should be coming to the capital at this time.”
“I hope His Royal Highness will take care of you, Ayu’s jealousy has grown.”
Qi Liangye had a headache for a while, and then slowly sat down on the chair. Xiao Yi, who was beside him, also wanted to be happy, but he didn’t dare to be as arrogant as Li Aru.
In the end, he coughed a few times before calling Qi Liangye and Li Aru back to their senses.
The author has something to say:
