Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 178 Autumn Hunting (10)

With a "click" sound, the bamboo tube rolled out of his hand. The messenger carefully looked at Gu Qinghong, who was like a god in front of him. After a long time, he saw him tightly holding the letter in his hand and turning to look at the Qin army camp ahead.

"Master Xiangguo?..." The messenger wanted to ask, but didn't know what to ask.

Gu Qinghong waved his hand and said tiredly: "Go down." His voice was no longer clear and smooth, but was hoarse. The messenger did not dare to guess his thoughts any more and quickly retreated. When he stepped off the city wall, he turned back and looked at Gu Qinghong standing in the wind, feeling that his back was desolate and lonely for no reason.

This was the scene when the young boy Zhuying went up to the city wall and saw Gu Qinghong. The wind blew the green brocade cloak he was wearing, and it moved wildly, while his much thinner figure was as thin as if it had been carved by a wind knife. He stood motionless, like a blue crane that had gone through vicissitudes of life, lonely. Looking into the distance.

Zhuying only felt a soreness on the tip of his nose. His master should have been a handsome man who could walk through trees and flowers. His hand holding the pen should not have picked up the sword, and the sword was allowed to wear calluses on his palm. His elegant eyebrows should not have been stained by the wind and frost of the frontier. He didn't have to deal with a group of rude generals to discuss how to launch a surprise attack and suppress the enemy.

But here he comes. It was none of his business. After several days of sleepless nights, he wrote to the emperor requesting to go to the front line to supervise the battle.

When he arrived in Tongzhou, the Qin army was already devastated and devastated when it swept through thirteen counties in Lingzhou. Frightened refugees poured into Tongzhou City in droves, and the entire Tongzhou City fled further south in fear of the arrival of the Qin army. The people's morale was dispersed, and the military's morale became even more unstable. The general who failed in the previous battle committed suicide. People committed suicide to sacrifice their country, people abandoned their weapons and surrendered to the enemy. Rumors were heard everywhere. To say it was a chaotic war was simply not enough to describe the scene at that time.

But here he comes. Gu Qinghong is here! The first prime minister of Qi State was ordered to come to supervise the war. Qi State, which was caught off guard by Qin State's sudden attack, finally came to its senses and realized the fact of starting a war after experiencing the tragic defeat at "Yunling Pass". The Qin State no longer only robbed food on a small scale as in previous years, snatched people and took them back as slaves before leaving. The tough Qin people have set their sights on the rich Qi State and want to swallow it up!

Gu Qinghong is here! Rectify the army and rectify local political affairs that have been paralyzed. Let everything return to normal when the Qin army pounces on Tongzhou. What followed was a continuous war. Every day, the Qin army attacked the city, and then the Qi army cut them into two sections from the Han River with great difficulty, and struggled to encircle and suppress the Qin army who crossed the river.

Every day when you open and close your eyes, you see dead people, dead people; corpses, corpses...

However, as long as Gu Qinghong's figure in a green robe stepped onto the tower, the exhausted Qi soldiers felt that this battle could be won! We will definitely win! But only he knew that his Prime Minister was so tired that he vomited blood in the middle of the night for the sake of the tranquility of the stalemate between the two countries after the war.

Thinking about it, Zhuying couldn't help wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, stepped forward and bowed and asked: "Master Xiangguo, please go back and rest for a while. It's windy here."

After a long time, Gu Qinghong slowly turned around. Zhuying couldn't help being shocked when he saw the look on his face: "Master Xiangguo, what's wrong with you?"

I saw a sad look on Gu Qinghong's handsome face, and his temples, which were as sharp as a knife, were faintly gray. In the ancient times, Wu Zixu's hair turned gray overnight. Why, after he had not seen his master for a long time, he was surprised to see that his hair was gray on his temples.

Gu Qinghong touched his face and waved his hand tiredly: "Let's go."

As soon as he raised his hand, the letter was blown to the ground by the wind. He stepped forward to pick it up. When he saw the word "Nie", he couldn't help but feel suffocated. After a long time, he suddenly asked: "What kind of person do you think Madam is when she is in the house?"

"Madam?!" Zhuying heard this and stayed for a long time before realizing that he was not referring to the false Mrs. Shen in the West Garden, but the real mistress of the former Prime Minister's Mansion - Nie Wushuang.

"What kind of person is she?" Gu Qinghong repeated again, his voice so soft, as if the wind blew her away. It was as if he was asking himself: What kind of woman is she?

A servant cannot comment on his master at will. Zhuying originally planned to brush it off, but looking at Gu Qinghong's serious expression, he finally couldn't bear it and lowered his head: "Madam is a person who understands rewards and punishments. The servants in the house make mistakes and merits. , she can see clearly and be impartial. Madam... Madam is a good person. "

"Good man..." Gu Qinghong held the letter paper in his hand, almost crushing the thin letter paper into powder. He knew she was a good person, a good woman, but...

Zhuying looked at his devastated expression, eyes filled with water, and choked with sobs: "Sir... don't think about it anymore! My lord, I know you have no choice, so..."

"It's a last resort?" Gu Qinghong smiled bitterly: "What a last resort..."

He thought that everything in the past could be completely over, but he didn't expect that this was the real beginning of a catastrophe. What on earth did he do? What did you really get?

Her eyebrows and eyes are still in front of him, and it seems that if he turns around, he can still see her standing under the peach blossom tree with a smile, calling him softly, "Qinghong..."

In an instant, everything was turned upside down. He saw her crying and smiled: "...You forced all this! How many scandalous things I have done and how many sins I have committed are all because of you in the end!"

"Sir?..." Zhuying called tentatively: "It's time to get off the city wall. Several generals are still waiting."

The paper in Gu Qing Hongjiang's hand was slowly torn into pieces. When he raised his hand, the pieces of paper were like snowflakes, flying in the wind, and instantly disappeared without a trace in the strong autumn wind.

"Call some generals to come quickly for discussion!" Gu Qinghong looked at the swarming Qin army on the other side of the river, as if finally

Yu Hen made a determined decision: "I want to go to Yingguo!"

"Bah!" Nie Wushuang paused and looked up at Xiao Fengming in front of him: "The emperor has lost."

Xiao Fengming laughed and threw away the hot black piece in his hand: "Shuang'er is really good at chess, and now he is on par with me."

Nie Wushuang smiled softly and stood up: "It is up to the emperor to accept the concession, so that I can win the beauty." The palace people saw that the emperor and the concubine were enjoying themselves playing chess, so they stepped forward to deal with it.

Nie Wushuang held Xiao Fengming's hand and slowly walked towards the garden behind the palace. Autumn is the most pleasant of the four seasons in Yingguo. Although it is a bit cold, the weather is fine. Xiao Fengming took the cloak from the palace attendant and tied it on for her naturally. Nie Wushuang raised her head and smiled at him. He was always like this, gentle and attentive to her.

"I heard that Mr. Han, the envoy of Qi State, made you angry?" Xiao Fengming held her hand and asked casually.

Nie Wushuang knew that things in the palace always escaped his eyes, and whispered: "Yes, he accused me. So I am no longer polite."

Xiao Fengming glanced at her: "They are indeed impatient."

"That's because they have nothing to do." Nie Wushuang said leisurely, a trace of joy flashed in his beautiful eyes: "Otherwise, how could they find my concubine?"

Xiao Fengming said calmly: "Anyway, after the autumn hunting, they should go back."

When it comes to Autumn Hunting, there are countless topics. Nie Wushuang thinks of the Autumn Hunting Festival that will be held the day after tomorrow, and there is a faint expectation in his heart. In Yingguo, autumn hunting and worshiping heaven are important festivals. Xiao Fengming talked endlessly about the grand occasion of autumn hunting in previous years.

Nie Wushuang listened with a smile on the side. At this moment, the palace attendant came forward with a somewhat panicked expression: "Inform the Emperor, someone from Mingfu Palace has come to report that Yun Chongyuan... Yun Chongyuan... seems to be having a baby." Giving birth..."

Xiao Fengming was startled, then frowned, with a stern expression: "What's going on? Is it a miscarriage or not? What does it mean like!"

The palace attendant was frightened by his stern tone: "The people from the imperial hospital who heard the report said that Concubine Yun has seen redness... The imperial doctors mean that the fetus cannot be saved."

Nie Wushuang was also surprised when he heard this. Although Concubine Yun was demoted to Yun Chongyuan, she was given food and clothing according to the previous regulations. The queen never neglected her. In order to make Yun Chongyuan more open-minded, she also specifically allowed her mother to take care of her. Such treatment is a blessing among misfortunes for a concubine who made a mistake, but why did she suddenly become famous?

Nie Wushuang was puzzled. Seeing Xiao Fengming's brows furrowed, he couldn't help but consider and persuade: "How about your Majesty... go over and have a look?"

Xiao Fengming glanced at her with an unprecedented cold expression: "How can I go at this time?"

Nie Wushuang didn't know why, at this time? Can't we go see it at this time? Before she could figure it out, Xiao Fengming's tone had already softened: "Go, report to the Queen and ask her to take care of her."

He paused for a long time, then slowly said: "Let the doctors from the Imperial Hospital do their best! Make sure mother and child are safe!"

The palace man raised his head cautiously and responded quickly: "Yes!"

After the palace man withdrew, Nie Wushuang saw that Xiao Fengming had turned around and continued to walk deeper into the garden without any haste. Knowing that Xiao Fengming had made up his mind not to visit Yun Chongyuan, he had no choice but to continue to follow.

Xiao Fengming walked alone in front for a while, turned around and saw Nie Wushuang following closely behind him, and sighed: "Do you also think I am heartless?"
