Chapter 1144

This night, the moon and stars are sparse, and the night wind is blowing. The light of the moon is slanting on the high wall of Huiling city. On the wide land around, there is also an eucalyptus forest which can't be seen at the end of a mile from the gate of Huiling city

This luxuriant forest is just beside the official road. It not only blocks the dust on the official road, but also blocks the burning sun from the shade of trees in the daytime. The northwest side of the forest is close to Huiling River, which is wide and swift, so it is very difficult to cross the river.

For the Nanliang army, it is suitable to camp here: it can avoid the sun in the daytime; the side near the river is not easy to be attacked by stealth, and it can provide water; in addition, this eucalyptus forest is in the right position, which is only one mile away from Huiling City, which can not only observe the trend of Huiling city nearby, but also facilitate them to arrange night attack at any time.

Now, ten thousand troops of Nanliang have been encamped here for nearly half a month. Banners are fluttering, and thousands of tents are stacked. Looking far away, there is a bright fire.

In the center of the camp, a large group of bonfires were burning, sparks were jumping, and the sound of "Ziba Ziba" was issued.

From time to time, two soldiers from Nanliang, who were guarding the campfire, added firewood to the fire.

Not far from the front came the cry of the woman who was unwilling to torture, despairing and sad, and shivering.

Before long, two soldiers in Nanliang, dressed in rags, came out of the camp carrying a corpse wrapped in straw mats. They threw the rolled straw mat on the ground. One of them scolded: "what a bad luck!" With that, they went back to the camp.

The corpse fell heavily on the ground, so that the straw mat was slightly loose. A naked arm obviously belonging to a woman was hanging outside the mat. You can see that the white skin is full of blue and purple mottled marks, as well as a lot of whip marks and blood marks, which makes people hardly bear to look directly.

But the two soldiers of Nanliang by the campfire just glanced at them indifferently, and then drew back their sight. The thin black man looked up at the sky and said, "is it the third watch day now? In another hour, we can Hey, hey

The beard beside him added a firewood and said, "look at your virtue. However, general Elida said that as long as Huiling city is captured, we will not be closed for seven days. Are you afraid there won't be a better woman

Since ancient times, slaughterhouses have always paid attention to the idea that "seven days are the end". General Elida is willing to say that he should not seal the sword for seven days. Obviously, he has already felt impatient with the battle of Huiling city and intends to improve the morale of the soldiers.

Qiu beard rubbed his hands and said, "last time in Yanding City, we only allowed us to kill the city for three days. It's not fun at all! However, the girl of Da Yu is really beautiful, and the woman whose skin is cooler than us in the south, tut tut... " He tutted in the aftertaste.

The black thin man pointed to him and said jokingly, "ah, I say you, be careful which day you are planted on a woman!"

Qiu bearded Hu laughed with disapproval: "hey hey, they have a saying that the peony died under the flowers, and they became ghost wind..."

"Ah, what is that?" The thin black man suddenly interrupted his roommate and pointed to the sky road behind him.

"What..." Qiu bearded Hu looked at the past suspiciously.

I do not know when the night sky flashes a cluster of fire, dazzling.

"Whoosh -"

"Susu --"

bursts of air breaking sound mixed with the sound of swaying branches and leaves came closer and closer, and saw the countless rockets shooting closely, just like meteors flying across the sky, lighting up the night like the day, clang Zheng Zheng Zheng, one by one rockets fired strongly on the barracks in the forest On the trees.

Boom -

those tents and trees were burning rapidly, thousands, no, tens of thousands of fires, and then gusts of night wind quickly connected into a piece, like a wildfire burning wildfire, spread around rapidly, thick smoke around, and gradually blurred the vision.

The whole camp was boiling in an instant, with voices, shouts and screams coming and going

"Enemy attack!"

The two sentries in Nanliang and several other sentinels in the camp yelled at their voices, trying to wake up their sleeping Companions to fight against the enemy.

Then, Nanliang soldiers in the camp poured out like a tide. They didn't even have time to put on their armor, and they didn't have time to pick up weapons. Some even caught fire and rolled on the ground wailing

The red light of fire shocked all the chariots in the camp. They broke free of the reins, ran and hissed. They even trampled on some soldiers, making the surroundings more chaotic and out of control!

In less than a cup of tea, the camp turned into a sea of fire, a hell on earth, filled with a disgusting smell of barbecue

Nanliang soldiers are frantically running to the forest, even if their superiors are shouting and lining up, but at this critical moment of life, who can listen to them? But when they cover their noses and rush out of the smoke covered Fire Sea, they are waiting outside. They are thousands of cavalry in uniform armor, layer upon layer surrounded the forest, and the front row of cavalry He raised his crossbow and aimed at them with a burning rocket."Whew, whew --"

the rocket shot at these Nanliang people who escaped from the fire forest like a rainstorm.

Behind the archers, there was a loud voice:

"kill!"

In the thunderous shouts of soldiers, the sound of horse's hooves trampled on the ground. The cavalry held up their silver swords and attacked these fish, just like the angry waves on the sea. Wave after wave, the bright red flags were flying in the air. The originally quiet night was full of murderous spirit!

Seeing the enemy attack, Nanliang soldiers certainly will not wait to die. They will pick up the weapons that can be used on the ground and flee and fight. Everyone is fighting for their own lives. Nobody wants to die!

The knife rises and falls. In the blazing fire, blood splashes everywhere and flesh and blood flies.

There was the sound of weapons colliding, the sound of knives cutting into bones and flesh, the crackling sound of fire burning The ensemble became a cruel and heroic elegy.

The blazing fire stained the dark night sky with a touch of red, and the hot air came, with a scorching smell. The wind also brought rolling smoke, choking people a burst of coughing.

Such a move, Huiling city can not be unconscious, the city wall immediately stirred up, a middle-aged man wearing armor rushed with several people on the wall.

"Master situ!"

The soldiers on the wall were busy holding fists and saluting people.

As early as the rocket suddenly hit, those sentinel soldiers had found out that they thought it was another night attack by Nanliang army, but they didn't expect that the Rockets aimed at Nanliang people's camp.

The night watchman Chen Xiaowei quickly sent someone to inform situ shoubei. Since Huiling city was besieged, situ shoubei has been sleeping with his clothes. He has never had a good sleep, for fear that the enemy will attack the city suddenly.

He came as soon as he received the report.

Chen Xiaowei said happily: "master situ, can it be our reinforcements?"

However, he could not be optimistic.

In fact, after Huiling city was besieged, he sent several teams of people to Luoyue city to report the news. However, none of them could survive the siege. Even their bodies were hung high on the flagpole by Nanliang people for ten days.

The nearest to their Huiling city are Lanjia city and Huayi city. These two cities are small cities, and the garrison in the city is only three or five thousand. Let alone that the garrison can not leave the city at will without the order of the Lord. Even if they come, they will be in the vanguard of the ten thousand Nanliang army.

Who are the comers

Situ shoubei took the Qianli eye from his own soldiers and looked at the direction of Nanliang military camp.

Through the eyes of thousands of miles, the situation of a mile away is clearly shown in front of situ shoubei's eyes. The camp of Nanliang army is on fire, smoke is billowing, and countless Nanliang soldiers are trapped in the sea of fire. It seems that there is no fake

Situ shoubei slowly turned his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the waving flags among the cavalry. His eyes were slightly open, and he blurted out: "it's shiziye!" That is clearly the banner of the prince Xiao Yi!

"Prince!"

Chen Xiaowei also widened his eyes and raised his voice subconsciously.

The soldiers on the wall all looked excited and relieved. They had worked so hard with the people in the city to hold on for so many days. They thought that they would not be able to support the day when the army came. Unexpectedly, shiziye arrived with his soldiers. Now they are fighting with Nanliang army.

"We are saved!"

"Great, shiziye has come to rescue Huiling city!"

“……”

The atmosphere on the wall became more and more warm, but situ's heart was not so relaxed.

In the light of the fire, it was hard to estimate the number of the cavalry. However, after looking at it for a while, situ shoubei guessed that the number would not be very large. Otherwise, the Nanliang army was in a state of panic, and it was clear that they could carry out encirclement and suppression. However, they just wandered and attacked suddenly and deliberately avoided confrontation with them. Obviously, their military strength was insufficient.

It takes time for the army to March. It should be the vanguard army that comes to support first.

Although shiziye has disturbed the enemy camp with fire attack and caused a lot of damage to the enemy, when the Nanliang army reacts and controls the remaining soldiers, there will be a tough battle to fight

At this time, situ shoubei suddenly looked awe inspiring. At the same time, Chen Xiaowei's voice sounded in his ear, "master situ, it's the flag language!"

Semaphore!

Shiziye's flag is being held by a man, waving it rhythmically, which is clearly the sign language!

Did the prince let him lead the army out of the city?

Situ shoubei put down his eyes, raised his voice and decisively ordered: "ring the drum, call the whole army, open the gate! We will fight nanlianggou to death

"Yes, master situ!"

Chen Xiaowei and the soldiers felt the blood boiling, and a sense of killing and fighting rushed from the chest, and they immediately took action.

At the same time, the forest where Nanliang camp is located almost turned into a huge bonfire. The trees were burned, snapped and cracked, crushing on the burning camp, breaking, crashing, falling, cracking as one falls.The bodies of Nanliang army can be seen everywhere. The death forms are different. Those who were burned, those who were shot by arrows, those who were cut down by knives, and those who were crushed by trees Blood into a river, almost all the ground around the red, forming a world of fire and blood.

In succession, the remaining soldiers of Nanliang escaped from the woods in several ways. Xiao Yi didn't order to chase them. There were only 3000 vanguard soldiers. It was the key to solve the difficulty of Huiling city. It was not wise to pursue them.

Xiao Yi takes a look at the direction of the city wall, and the garrison of Huiling city should have received the flag.

With 3000 cavalry trying to wipe out the 10000 Nanliang army, it is a fool's dream talk. However, Huiling city has not yet been broken. Huiling city should have had 8000 garrisons. After many wars, Xiao Yi estimated that there were at least 35000 people left, which could be a trap for Nanliang army!

Otherwise, if the delay continues, once the Nanliang army arrives, I'm afraid Huiling city will be really dangerous.

"Prince!" At this time, Wu Chenming wiped the blood on his face and reported, "the gate of Huiling city has been opened."

"Good!"

Xiao Yi picked up the heavy bow hanging on the side of the horse and put a long arrow on the bow string.

The bow string was easily pulled open until it was full of bows. His hand suddenly let go, and the long arrow roared out with a burst of air breaking sound

Bang!

The banners and banners of the commander of the Nanliang army broke, and the cheers and Thunders of Huiling city were heard.

Morale has been boosted.

"Kill!"

Xiao Yi drinks violently and comes out with the help of his men

……

At this time, nangongyue, who was far away in Luoyue City, suddenly woke up. She felt a burst of heat. She sat up from her bed and wiped her back neck. It was already wet with sweat.

The night was silent, only the cicadas outside came from time to time.

When the thrush on duty heard the movement in the inner room, she got up in a hurry, came in and asked in a low voice, "are you OK, Princess Shizi?"

When Xiao Yi was in the mansion, the maids didn't need to be on duty at night, but now nangongyue is the only one. Several big servant girls take turns to arrange shifts.

The voice of thrush made Nangong Yue wake up a little, and said, "I'm ok, just wake up from the heat..."

Thrush busy into the inner room, to nangongyue poured cold boiled water, and went out to change the ice basin, the room is gradually cooler.

He sent the thrush out, but Nangong Yue still couldn't sleep, so he went to the beauty couch in front of the window and sat down.

She opened the window and looked southeast.

That's the direction of Huiling city

It was only at dawn that Nangong Yue fell asleep again. Thrush knew that she didn't sleep well last night and didn't dare to disturb her in the early morning. So she got up a little later than usual. After having breakfast, she moved to the director of Xihong hall.

As soon as he got out of the room, he felt that it was just the end of the day. However, the sun was hanging high in the sky, baking the earth like a ball of fire. A powerful breeze was coming. It didn't feel cool. On the contrary, it made people feel more hot.

"It's getting hotter and hotter this day." Nangong Yue frowned slightly.

"Yes, Princess!" With the thrush in the side can not help complaining, "not moving all a sweat, these days there are several small servant girls in the summer heat."

Nangong Yue pondered for a moment and said, "thrush, you'll tell me to go down and let the servant girls and women in Bixiao hall stop cleaning in the courtyard at noon and avoid the heat. It should be done before sunrise or after sunset

Thrushu quickly thanks Nangong Yue for those rude maids and goes.

When Nangong Yue arrived at the Xihong hall, several Nangong maids in charge of silk and silver were already waiting under the eaves. When he saw Nangong Yue, they all bowed their knees and saluted: "I've seen the imperial concubine."

Nangong Yue motioned that they should be exempted. A group of people took her as the center and entered Xihong hall.

Nangong Yue sat down on the imperial chair. After he was given a seat, several stewardesses sat down on the machine brought by the servant girl.

First of all, mother Lu reported that the ice consumption was larger than expected due to the hot weather recently. Nangong Yue only told housekeeper Zhu that the ice in the rain Pavilion and Yunli hospital should not be less.

Then, the other women in charge also reported one by one. When it was mother Qu's turn in the sewing room, she sat there in a daze, for a long time, as if she were in a trance.

A fat mammy beside her stealthily pulled her sleeve, and she suddenly regained her consciousness. However, when she stood up, she bumped into the machine behind her and made a "clattering" sound, which was particularly harsh. All the other responsible moms looked at her in unison.

Mother Qu said respectfully, "princess, the sewing room is about to start summer No, autumn clothes. In the past, the autumn clothes were all one and two for each servant girl. The maid wanted to ask the princess whether she still came as usual? "

Nangong Yue thought for a while and said, "autumn clothes will come as usual, but I think the summer will be a little long this year. Maybe it will be hot in early October. Your sewing room will mend the summer clothes for you first, and then start to sew autumn clothes."

A few small servant girls in the hall heard that they had a new suit of summer clothes. They were all happy and exchanged a look.Mother Qu's blessing body should say: "yes, the son and concubine, the maidservant ordered the people under her to start to measure their bodies to make autumn clothes for everyone..." With that, her eyes were a little straight, and she didn't realize that she was wrong.

Mother Lu coughed anxiously, trying to remind mother Qu.

Looking at mother Qu's absentmindedness, Nangong Yue frowned slightly. She is not the first time to deal with this mother qu. on weekdays, she is still a very capable person. What's wrong with her

Nangong Yue asked in a deep voice, "mother Qu, what do you want to report?"

Mother Qu stirred her spirits, and then she came back to her senses. She was afraid of being punished. She knelt down in a panic and asked for her sin: "please forgive me, princess.". The little granddaughter of the maid has been ill recently, and she is a little worried, so she is distracted for a moment She said, trembling.

Looking at mother Qu's appearance, Nangong Yue guessed that it was not a simple cold and cough, so he asked again, "what's the disease?"

Mother Qu felt uneasy and worried. She could not hide her trembling voice and said, "I'd like to tell you, my granddaughter may have been caught in the heat and vomited up and down. She took some wormwood water last night, but she still vomited this morning." Seeing her granddaughter almost spit out jaundice, mother Qu frowned tightly.

The servant girl's face was a little bit heavy recently These days, the weather is really getting hotter and hotter. The old people and children are weak. I'm afraid this summer will be difficult.

"You get up first." Nangongyue ordered, "Baihui, go and get some antipyretic medicine I made for mother Qu...."

Baihui is busy with his life.

"Thank you, my servant!" Mother Qu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the princess didn't blame her and gave her medicine. It's said that Princess Shizi is a miracle doctor. This must be a miracle medicine?!

Nangong Yue said again: "mother Qu, since your granddaughter is seriously ill, you should go back early and call for a doctor for her. Don't delay the illness and turn a minor illness into a serious one."

Baihui went to mother Qu and said politely, "Mammy, go to the corner gate and wait for me. When I take the medicine, I will send it to you."

"Thank you very much, Miss Baihui." Mother Qu was grateful and left Xihong hall with Baihui one after another.

Then, the other mother in charge continued to report to nangongyue for instructions, and then took the right card After about a stick of incense, at last they had dealt with these trifles, and the women in charge retired together.

Nangong Yue yawned a little tired. It was getting hotter these two days. Although there was an ice basin in Xihong hall, she felt a burst of sultry after sitting for a while.

It can be imagined that the common people will be even more miserable

Nangong Yue frowned slightly and said in a voice, "magpie, the weather is getting hotter recently. Do you know the situation in the city?"

Magpie immediately understood that Nangong Yue was worried about the summer heat. He reasoned his thoughts and replied in an orderly way: "huishizifei, I went to the teahouse of the eldest girl at your command yesterday. Miss Han happened to be there. She also gave me a cup of herbal tea, and the maid hid herself in the teahouse. These days, big girl's teahouse is often full, especially around noon, when the sun is at its peak, several helping women are hardly busy, so Miss Han went there to help. The sun at noon these days was really poisonous. The maidservant sat in the teahouse for less than a stick of incense. Four or five people on the road had symptoms of heatstroke and were sent to the teahouse to rest. Fortunately, it wasn't serious. Miss Han poured them two cups of hot herbal tea. After sweating, she slowed down. I heard from the passers-by in the teahouse that the tea givers are indeed of infinite merit and virtue! "

Nangong Yue was very thoughtful when he heard this. Next, he was afraid that the summer heat would become more and more serious. I'm afraid tea may not be enough Maybe there's something else to think about.

Thinking, listen to the voice of small servant girl salute outside: "see big girl!"

As soon as the voice fell, Xiao Fei, who was covered in a cloud pattern, came slowly into the room.

After they saw the ceremony, Nangong Yue said, "Fei sister, you're here just in time. I'm going to see my father. Why don't you come with me?"

See my father? Xiao Fei slightly a Zheng, but did not ask more, went with her to Town South King's outside study.

Their luck is not bad, Zhennan Wang today did not go to the military camp, is in the study to deal with business, Paeonia respectfully led them in.

After saluting Zhennan king, Nangong Yue said respectfully, "father, your daughter-in-law wants to use medicine in the city with Fei's sister-in-law..."

Zhennan Wang squints slightly and looks at Nangong Yue slightly.

Nangong Yue continued without any concern: "father Wang, yesterday, my daughter-in-law and Fu Liu went to the teahouse to have tea. I heard people talking about the Fang family and also mentioned our palace. The fangs are the in laws of the prince's house. No wonder... " She deliberately stopped and looked helpless. "Father and daughter-in-law will toss and turn all night long when they think of the damage to the reputation of the palace. The daughter-in-law thinks that she should do something good to benefit the people and to revive the reputation of our palace! "

Zhennan Wang saw her look really a little haggard, can not help but some moved.The Fang family's affairs were too ugly, disobedience and adultery, and even made the Zhennan Palace's reputation flawed, which became the topic of common people's leisure time. Although no one dares to chew his tongue in front of Zhennan king, there are some things he doesn't know.

He thought about it carefully and thought that nangongyue's proposal was really good. It was good to give medicine. It could not only improve the reputation and prestige of the palace, but also divert the attention of the people in the city from the Fangs' scandal

The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea. When he looked up to Nangong Yue, his eyes showed some appreciation. This princess is worthy of being a legitimate daughter of a well-known family. She has the demeanor of a hostess of the palace when she does things.

Xiao Fang's appearance is getting worse and worse recently. It's not appropriate for the imperial concubine to take charge of the imperial concubine. Maybe you can let the imperial concubine have a try

And Xiao Fei

Zhennan Wang quickly glanced at Xiao Fei and thought: Fei's sister only knew how to read, but now she has been with her son and concubine for a long time, but she has become a lady of the palace.

"OK, I'll do what you want, Princess Shizi!" Zhennan Wang said decisively, "later, I will send someone to go to the cashier's office to get one thousand taels of silver. You can use it first As for manpower and purchasing, you can do it by yourself. Your mother is still keeping her sick recently. Don't disturb her

Is this a complete failure of Xiao Fangshi? It is also true that the king of Zhennan has such a good face that he is disgusted with Xiao Fang. Nangong Yue thought so, then lowered eyebrow Shun purpose and Xiao Fei together blessing said: "thank you father king."

Two people look at each other, can't help but smile, even this originally dull study seems to be because of the two people's light smile has become more relaxed and natural.

Zhennan Wang stroked his beard with satisfaction. If he remembered correctly, the hairpin ceremony would be held in five days. Maybe he should give her some face
