Chapter 068 flirting with the army 2
What Changsun Wuji said is not unreasonable. If Li Shimin is angry about this incident, he will fail Changsun Wuji's loyalty and win into someone's heart. Whether I leave or not, the relationship between Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji will be stiff, which is not good for Li Shimin.
In desperation, I had to worship them and say, "Your Highness and Lord Changsun, don't hurt your peace for me. I know that I will cause trouble to Your Highness and Lord Changsun. Lord Changsun, please rest assured that the march will not be suspended this time.
I didn't decide to say so. Changsun Wuji looked at Li Shimin. I secretly pulled Li Shimin's sleeve. Li Shimin finally nodded his head and looked at me with doubtful and worried eyes. I smiled and said to Li Yuanji and Changsun Wuji, "Your Highness has nodded and promised not to suspend the march. You two should go back first to calm down the soldiers, and we will arrive later."
Li Yuanji and Changsun Wuji said goodbye to Li Shimin and rode away in a hurry. Li Yuanji turned around and looked at me secretly, unable to hide his unwillingness and puzzlement. I turned my head and stared at him secretly. Li Shimin beside me didn't notice this. He only held my shoulder with a worried face and said angrily, "Changsun Wuji is getting bolder and bolder. Is he fighting for his sister?"
I shook my head helplessly and said sadly, "There are three wives and four concubines in the palace. How could Lord Changsun fight for Princess Qin because of me? Your Highness, I'm really afraid now because I've blindfolded you. Your Highness, please don't delay big things because of me in the future, otherwise I will really become a sinner that everyone spits on.
"But your injury... or, according to Wuji, you go back to Chang'an first." Li Shimin said, and I shook my head and said firmly, "This wound will only heal for a period of time, but if there is a wound in my heart, it will be difficult to heal. Although I am a woman, I can also make suggestions and solve problems for Your Highness. I can do what Your Highness can do!"
Li Shimin couldn't help laughing: "I admit that you are smart. But this war is different from that in the palace, and making suggestions is not so simple.
I said, "A failure in the palace is to kill one; a failure in a war is not only a thousand lives, but also a loss of the land saved with blood and sweat. The maidservant understands."
"Okay, I want to see how smart you are!" Li Shimin faced the hillside and whistled loudly. The wind came from a distance, which seemed to have calmed down. Li Shimin wanted to help me on the horse. I dodged him and grabbed the rope and climbed onto Yufeng's back: "I have to find a horse quickly, otherwise I'm afraid that your Highness and I are both good at Longyang." Seeing me like this, Li Shimin had to jump on his horseback to protect me in his arms. His eyes paused in my blood-printed chest and made a sound of the horse galloping.
The army marched ahead, and the wind quickly caught up. Changsun Wuji finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw us. When Qin Shubao saw the blood on my chest and looked at me worriedly, I smiled and said, "It's okay. It's the same if you wrap it again. It's better to let it go."
After three consecutive days of marching, he finally arrived at the Luoyang border. Li Shimin ordered the garrison to camp. The soldiers were determined not to lose their spirit and were wholeheartedly ready to fight. The nerves of the whole army collapsed tightly. Li Shimin discussed military affairs with Changsun Wuji and others all day long and left me alone in the account. He didn't believe what I said that day. Is it true that the woman can't give advice in his eyes?
But I still believe in Li Shimin's strength. In addition, there are wise men such as Changsun Wuji, as well as Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie, Yu Chi Jingde, Huo Changsun and other fierce generals. At the beginning, this battle was very concisely arranged.
Wang Shichong established himself as the monarch of Zheng. When Liu Wuzhou and Song King Kong were annihilated, he had expected that Tang would take Zheng as his next goal, so he had already prepared for mobilization. At this time, compared with the military of Tang and Zheng, although Zheng was slightly weak, he won the local battle and took advantage of the defensive posture. For him, there should have been a relatively tragic seesaw scene. Unexpectedly, as soon as the war began, his situation deteriorated rapidly. The five generals of the Tang army were about to attack, and the defenders from all over the State of Zheng actually surrendered without a fight.
In July, Zhang Gongjin surrendered; in August, Dengzhou surrendered; in September, Tian Zan surrendered to his 25 states, and Shi Derui surrendered to his seven states; in October, Zhang Zhen and Zhou surrendered, Guo Qing surrendered to Guanzhou, Wei Lu surrendered to Xingyang, and Wang asked Han to surrender to Bianzhou. In just three months, all the counties around Luoyang fell into the hands of Li Shimin, and Luoyang became a lonely city.
At the end of the day and night, the sultry heat of the day made me sweat a lot. I finally endured that there were no soldiers to take a bath in the forest river, so I sneaked a little far away to cool myself down. Unexpectedly, as soon as I got into the water, the voices of soldiers came from the river not far away, and I immediately stiffened and dared not make a sound. Fortunately, it was dark at night. I faintly saw several soldiers stripping off their clothes and going down the river on the shore, as if they didn't notice it.
I came here like this the other day, and it's also far from the barracks. How could there be soldiers suddenly coming tonight? On second thought, it should be that Li Shimin won without a fight this March. These soldiers were relieved, and Li Shimin discussed the big plan to attack Luoyang and capture Wang Shichong all day long. It was inevitable that some management made these soldiers unable to resist the sultry and run to the river.
I quietly moved the river and looked at the bank. The crisp sound of water sounded in the moonlight. The soldiers seemed to hear the sound of water elsewhere and looked at this way strangely. I immediately stopped and didn't dare to move. I sweated nervously. At this time, an angry shout came from there: "It's already night. Why are you still outside? Don't you think we will neglect to manage these days? Go back and get the reward!"
is Changsun Wuji.
Hearing this, the soldiers immediately took up their clothes and rushed back to the barracks. There were still two figures standing on the shore, in addition to Changsun Wuji and... Qin Shubao. Changsun Wuji glanced at me and looked at me, and I was shocked. They knew that I was here.
The two people on the shore then turned around but had no intention of leaving. I hurriedly put on my robe and greeted me awkwardly. The two turned around, and Changsun Wuji frowned and said angrily, "Do you know that you are not careful in the army? Why are you so careless!"
Although this was harsh, it made me very comforted. I said, "My maidservant, thank you for your concern. But if you use water in the tent, I'm afraid it will a lot of doubts. At that time, not to mention self- Protection, even Your Highness will be involved. The maidservant knew that what Lord Changsun said was more than this, and there must be something else to come to me this time, right?
As soon as I asked, Changsun Wuji sighed, "You said you were careless, but in fact, I relaxed my management. You are so delicate that some things can't escape your conjecture. Changsun Wuji faced the sparkling river under the moon. "Although I won without fighting, my highness has been busy with Wang Shichong these days. I haven't closed my eyes for three days, and I have less food. In addition, the weather is hot and sultry... It doesn't sound good. Your Highness has a premonition. I'm afraid that I haven't fought with Wang Shi. How can I be bored? !"
So it is. I smiled and said, "I will definitely persuade Your Highness to rest for the eldest grandson to refresh himself so that he can fight." Indeed, I haven't seen Li Shimin for several days.
Changsun Wuji thanked me with his fists. His dissatisfaction with me was all for Li Shimin for this war! Qin Shubao, who was beside him, circled behind me and waved a knife at a big tree. The big tree fell across the river with a few bangs, and the lush branches and leaves blocked the river. I nodded to him and smiled, "Brother Xie Qin!"
Qin Shubao cut and covered one side of the river with a big tree. After that, it would be much more convenient for me to bathe behind this tree. Compared with Changsun Wuji, Qin Shubao treated me much more gently, and his mind was also very meticulous. He did not forget to solve this problem for me and came up with such a simple method.
