Chapter 236

In the middle of August, Tianjiao entered Zhili and stationed troops in Baoding Prefecture, followed by the so-called "Qin Wang's division", which took over Zhending Prefecture, which was defeated by Tianjiao with great efforts.

Baoding is only half a day away from the capital.

It must be in the southeast of Baoding, a little far away from the capital, but it is also less than half a day away from Baoding.

When Yan Lin and others led their troops to the real time, the Tianjiao volunteers stationed in the city could not resist the attack. They were tired and had only fought against the imperial court. Before they could catch their breath, they had to fight against Xinzhou army and Huangzhou army. How could they resist?

It doesn't take two hours for Kaicheng to surrender.

When you enter the city, you can see all the damage caused by war and chaos everywhere.

Wan Xiuzi is not a good friend either. He knows that if he stops to defend every city he has laid down, he will inevitably face the situation that there are wolves in front and tigers behind him. He will be attacked by Xie Wei and the imperial court, and there will be no way to survive at that time.

So in the last two months, I have come up with some ways to "weaken" Xie Wei.

For example, when they get into the city, they burn, kill and rob the rich families of squires and bureaucrats. They take what they can and burn what they can't. They don't want to leave any food and grass to Xie Wei. Even if there are still young people in the city, they are either forcibly captured and incorporated into their own rebel forces as the sacrifice of the next siege; or they are killed on the spot, so as not to make them join the Xinzhou army camp.

Therefore, ten cities and nine empties are the places where Tianjiao volunteers pass.

In the early stage, Wan Xiuzi ordered the people to plunder and clean up. In the later stage, the people fled early before the war to avoid danger. They would not return to the city until general Yanlin's Qin Wang's division arrived.

In contrast -

Wan Xiuzi is the devil, Xie Juan is the sage;

the rebel army is the bandit, Xinzhou army is the king division.

But who can know that the so-called "Master Wang" and the so-called "sages" are behind all this?

Yan Lin led the battle, Xie Wei planned the overall situation, and LV Xian coordinated the food and grass. Of course, Jiang Xuening was also involved. After all, after taking over the south from Tianjiao, the business between central Sichuan and Jiangnan naturally came back. Even if Zhou Yinzhi stole the keepsake, it was just robbing tens of thousands of taels of silver stored in the bank.

Money is a dead thing, but it is rare to make money.

She didn't have a spare time. She stayed behind the army all the way and took along Wei Liang who didn't take part in the imperial examination. When you go to a city, you must first ask about the people's livelihood, adjust measures to local conditions, and arrange agriculture and mulberry, which has played a great role in pacifying the people.

It's just

Jianshu pinched the letter from the capital in his hand and walked forward. He thought of the silly Wei Liang Wei, and then he turned his mouth gently. In fact, I'm not interested in this young master. He's not a good person.

But it's also bad here.

Who let him be under the hand of Ning Er girl?

He always follows Ning ER and talks with her. Once his husband watched them squatting in the field with sweet potatoes in their hands for an afternoon, and their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot.

But this man can't understand.

One time when Ning ER was away, he happened to meet him and left him to sit down for tea. He spent a few words beating him. Wei Liang Leng didn't understand, and he didn't know the world at all. He also asked confusedly: "can't you go with me? But she is in charge of money. Everyone likes her. She has to nod her head in everything. She has to go and have a look. Where can we do the work and plant the land through the account book? "

That may be my husband's worst day.

Together with Ning Er, the next day she had bad luck. When she was learning to play the piano, she lost her mind and said Wei Liang. When she was picked up by her husband, she broke her heart and cried. In the end, she didn't understand why he was so angry that day.

Jianshu thinks that his husband is silent and jealous. He thinks his hair is cool behind his neck, but he doesn't dare to talk too much.

Fortunately, my husband knows.

If you're jealous, you'll be jealous for a while.

After all, Miss Ning ER and Mr. Liang of that Wei were innocent before. They didn't really have anything to do with farming. If they didn't like it, they would have to go back.

At this time, the magistrate of Zhending Prefecture had already replaced the people of Xinzhou army, and the courtyard was full of soldiers in armor.

When Tianjiao came to the city a few days ago, Wan Xiuzi cut off the head of the former magistrate. Most of the other bureaucrats were killed, and the rest of them were gone.

So the Yamen is empty.

Just moved to Xie weiyanlin and others to live.

The courtyard of Ning Er girl is certainly the best one in this mansion.

When autumn comes, maple leaves gradually dye.

On the corridor came the sound of the spring, which seemed to be flowing. I felt the way, and gradually felt comfortable.

When he saw the envelope, he could not help but smile.He entered the courtyard.

The window of the courtyard is open. Jiang Xuening sits at the piano table and fondles the strings. Xie Wei stands beside her, watching and listening in silence.

At the end of the song, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she was overjoyed and said, "how about it? All right this time? I'll have a rest in the next half an hour. "

Xie Wei heard the speech and pulled the corners of his mouth.

His thin and cool eyes passed her expectant eyes. Although he knew that she was gambling with herself and that if she played the right song, she would be able to rest for the next half an hour. In fact, he was talking about conditions and wanted to be lazy.

It's just a long way to go.

One day learning will not continue to learn one day, Ning Er this little fool is not understand.

He did not embarrass her. He said with a smile, "let's practice here today."

Since the last day, Ning Er did what he said, but he really followed him to learn the piano. Over the past few months, if there is no war on that day, he does not go to discuss and plan, and she is not busy with business, she will stay in her room, teaching and learning piano.

It's just that Ning er's mouth is a liar.

She didn't like to be quiet by nature. She was tired and lazy when she stayed in the room, and she could go out of the door and jump around. He said that he wanted to learn to play the piano, so he could play it for him later. It's true to learn, and it's true to make progress, but I can't sit still. After half an hour there, I feel sick all over. I have to jump left and right, and I'm naughty and lazy.

Xie Wei has always been a strict teacher. If he had been studying piano with FengChen hall in those years, he would have carried a ruler to beat her.

But now

She didn't practice; he was angry; she worked hard, and he was distressed.

Mingming asked Jianshu to prepare two rulers, but they are still brand-new up to now. Let alone interrupt, there are few scratches on them!

It's just that Jiang Xuening doesn't know how to speak.

It's not that she doesn't want to practice at this time.

After all, when she made a commitment to Xie Juan, she was serious; only when she saw the development of the war and was about to hit the capital, those things of the old year came to her mind one by one. It's better to wait until you have a clear mind to practice. That's why you play with him.

After sitting for a long time, my neck is sore.

She heaved a sigh of relief and turned her head.

Xie Wei stood behind her, and when he saw this, he laughed and put his hand on her back neck. His slender fingers made him pinch it for her bit by bit: "just like you've been fishing for three days and drying your net for two days, I'm afraid that you may not be able to learn seven or eight points from me. I'm tired at that time..."

Jiang Xuening rolled his eyes.

However, when I looked back, I saw the sword book outside the door and his face at the same time. The relaxed smile on his face slowly gathered, and he only asked, "is the news coming?"

Enter the sword book and present the letter.

He bowed to himself and said, "you will not be helped by the young master. Dao Qin has taken people out of the city safely. I will arrive at Zhending tonight."

Jiang Xuening took the letter, opened it and looked at it. After sitting for a long time without expression, she raised her eyes to the red leaves outside the window and said to Xie Wei, "in the blink of an eye, it's time to kill all the flowers in autumn again..."

*

rarely, Zhou Yinzhi didn't want to ride a horse or a sedan chair. He just walked on the way back home with his hands on his back.

Just now, the scenes of the discussion in the court passed through my mind.

It is clear that today he was just given the position of nine gate governor, but he and Xiao Yuan, the Duke of Ding, led their respective troops to defend the capital. It can be said that they were only a step away from the most important officials, but he was not at all happy.

He never thought that the imperial court should be in such a situation.

Since the return of Xinzhou, Xiao Shu has a bright face, and Shen Lang also greatly appreciates him. He thought that although he paid much attention to you Fangyin, he offended Jiang Xuening, but it was not a loss.

But who would have thought that before he was happy for two days, Tianjiao would be reversed.

And then there's chaos.

Having been to Xinzhou and knowing the whole process of attacking Tatar, he naturally didn't think that Xie Yan and Xie Yan were really masters of the king Qin and good people.

But no one dare to tell the truth clearly.

As the Tianjiao fight gets closer and closer, the danger faced by the capital becomes more and more serious, let alone the reputation of Tianjiao. Many noble families in the city are not able to sit still. Some people secretly plan to run away to avoid the wind, and some even want to join the enemy.

How can Shen Lang ignore it?

Recently, the royal guards secretly arrested many people who wanted to escape and put them in prison. What's more, they directly assassinated them.

Now, without mentioning Xie Yan's "master of King Qin", we can still stabilize the situation in the capital. If we tell everyone clearly about this, the capital will be broken.

After all, who can believe -

this isolated city can resist the joint attack of Tianjiao army and Xie Yan?

In Zhou Yinzhi's opinion, today's court is like an egg hanging on the top of his hair. At any time, because of a small wind, it may fall down and smash!Tongzhou garrison, imperial city guard.

Is this really going to hold up?

When I think of the Emperor today, I left Zhang Zha alone to talk. It seems that he had something to explain, but he didn't ask the officials to listen in. It's really unusual.

He was getting restless and looked up to the door.

The newly built residence originally covers an extremely large area and is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings. Since the wedding of Chen Shuyi, hundreds of servants, coral, jade trees, gold and silver, are added to the house, which is very luxurious.

It's just that at the moment he's not in the mood to take a second look.

After stopping in the courtyard for a moment, Zhou Yinzhi thought about Chen Shuyi's posture. Disgusted, he turned around and went to the West courtyard.

There used to be maids waiting outside.

But today, I don't know why, there is no one outside, and there is no sound inside.

At that time, Zhou Yinzhi was a little strange.

But I didn't care.

However, just as he was about to step across the door, he saw a pot of golden dragon claw chrysanthemum on the side that looked at the sunshine well fell to the ground. His heart was suddenly awed, and he suddenly had some ominous premonition.

Walk into the door quickly, and you can see that all the servant girls are gagged, tied and thrown under the wall!

Zhou Yinzhi's eyelids jumped and immediately pressed the knife on his waist and rushed in.

There was some fear in his voice: "yaoniang -"

the room was empty.

On the ground lay a baby's garment that had not yet been embroidered.

A letter lay quietly on the desk.

*

at night, lanterns are hung in the corridor.

The candlelight in the house was shaken by the wind.

Jiang Xuening's beautiful face also flickered.

After several months in the capital, Dao Qin finally came back with a woman, a pregnant woman.

She has a pretty face and a shy face.

When Jiang Xuening first saw her a few years ago, her skin was much whiter, her clothes were made of silk, and her facial features were soft and warm. Looking at her now, she showed some fear and unconsciously gently stretched out her hand to protect her abdomen.

There's a bulge there.

Yaoniang has been pregnant for more than six months.

In the last life, Jiang Xuening had never seen her; in this life, it was just a two-sided relationship.

If it were not for Zhou Yinzhi, or for fear that she would not even remember her name.

Jiang Xuening gave an inexplicable smile, raised her hand and gently grabbed a bunch of her hair. Thinking about how much use this woman could bring, she said slowly, "don't be nervous. I'm not going to kill you."

If she didn't say this, it was OK. As soon as she said it, Yao Niang's face turned white almost instantly.

Naturally, she remembers Jiang Xuening.

She knew exactly why she was able to make a fortune. Later, when she went to Xinzhou, she was restless and couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. Now, the girl is back
