She didn't have much appetite for food, but she ate a little in order to live.
The food in the capital is no more exquisite than the big prayer. Just a few pieces of meat and a few cakes can fill your stomach.
After that, she lay down and fell asleep.
As soon as she went to sleep, she began to dream, sometimes about Xiao Baoshan, sometimes about two children, sometimes about Li Hongmei and Baozhu in the capital, and Li Chengru who became the emperor.
These are the best people in her life.
Later, she also dreamed that she was dead and hacked to death by Beiqing people.
She suddenly opened her eyes.
Although she was in the cold of Beiqing, she still had a cold sweat.
After that, she couldn't sleep anymore.
……
Ye Xiaoxian is in Shangjing.
Although it is Shangjing, it is only a small city, because most Beiqing people are nomadic, and the city is mainly used for trading.
During the day, ye Xiaoxian will open the window and look at the street below.
People come and go in the street. Their clothes are different from Beiqing. People here will be dotted with wool and wolf hair everywhere. They also like to wear gold and silver. Their clothes are usually long. People here are tall and rough in general.
On the street, there are both men and women, which shows that the idea of men being superior to women is not serious here. Women can also walk in the street, including some women in noble clothes.
She has been brought here by Qin Ming for more than a day. People in the store regularly deliver meals every day, and someone will clean up the Yexiang pot. However, Qin Ming and lenghua did not appear.
She thought, has she been forgotten?
The waiter was polite to her at first, but after the third day, the waiter sent the food up, no longer with a pleasant face, but with a straight face, and threw the food on the table at the same time.
It seems that I have a deep hatred with her.
Of course, ye Xiaoxian doesn't care about him. She just feels something different.
……
There is a very luxurious palace in the northernmost part of the capital. It is separated from the surroundings. The wall is ten meters high. Empress dowager Xiao of Beiqing lives here.
The emperor of Beiqing is still young, so the Empress Dowager takes care of everything in Beiqing. Because of this, Beiqing women will have a high status.
At this time, all the officials of Beiqing gathered in the hall, and the Empress Dowager sat side by side with the little emperor.
What they are discussing now is the annihilation of the army led by Jing Feng by xiaobaoshan.
When empress dowager Xiao first learned about it, she was very angry.
Later, I learned that it was because Jing Feng kidnapped xiaobaoshan's wife that xiaobaoshan led an army to destroy Beiqing's military camp outside Daqi Mobei city. Empress dowager Xiao couldn't help sweating all over again.
For one thing, she is not ashamed of Jing Feng's practice.
You fight when you fight. What are you doing with a woman?
Second, in the past, xiaobaoshan was only stationed in Mobei city and never took the initiative to attack Beiqing army. Empress dowager xiaobaoshan always thought that xiaobaoshan dared not, and Daqi army had no strength to compete with Beiqing.
However, facts have proved that xiaobaoshan has this strength, and Daqi army has this strength!
If xiaobaoshan still wants to attack north, how should Beiqing army deal with it?
Beiqing had a bad living environment. It was empress Xiao's ideal to enter the Central Plains. If they occupied Daqi, they would not have to live a nomadic life and could enjoy the prosperity of the Central Plains.
Unfortunately, this dream was finally dashed.
"You must know why xiaobaoshan attacked Beiqing. This is because Lengfeng kidnapped his wife. He wants to avenge his wife. Now his wife is in the capital. What do you Aiqing want to say?" Empress Dowager Xiao asked the following officials.
A Minister stood up and said, "there is a saying in the central plains that beauty is a curse. Then, the lady of xiaobaoshan is this beauty curse."
Empress Dowager Xiao said coldly, "if you say it's a disaster, it's a disaster? I'm sorry. Daqi Dynasty was robbed of a woman. Because of this woman, Daqi Dynasty won a war. This woman is clearly the blessing star of Daqi Dynasty."
The minister was a little ashamed and dared not speak again.
Another proposal was made: "empress dowager, the reason for this is because of this woman. It's better to cut down this woman and hang her head on the wall, so that we Beiqing people can vent our anger."
Empress Dowager Xiao still looked at the minister coldly, and then said, "hang an unarmed woman on the wall? You can vent your anger? What are we Beiqing people? If someone bullies you in the future, you will kill someone else's wife? Injustice has a head and debt has a master. You have the ability to defeat Xiao Baoshan. Who can complete this task?"
The ministers were ashamed and dared not speak again.
They all know that empress dowager Xiao has ambition, courage, strategy and aboveboard occupation. She will do it, but she will never do anything to bully a woman.
Qin Ming is also inside.
Empress Dowager Xiao asked, "didn't the lady of Xiao Baoshan bring her back now? Where is she now?"
Qin Ming said, "settle in the post station and wait... The Empress Dowager will fall."
Empress Dowager Xiao asked, "how do you want to mourn her?"
Qin Ming: "
Isn't this what Jing Feng wants to catch? He also listens to Jing Feng. Now that Jing Feng is dead, how does he know how to start?
Qin Ming didn't speak. The Empress Dowager only felt a headache.
Take ye Xiaoxian to threaten xiaobaoshan?
Let xiaobaoshan hand over Mobei city?
Now that this woman is still in their hands, Xiao Baoshan can lead his troops to attack Beiqing's barracks, which shows that he is not a threatened person at all. At that time, he may be angered and let him lead his troops north?
Empress Dowager Xiao held her forehead and then said, "well, just think that woman hasn't been to the capital. Let her live and die."
Naturally, the ministers dare not have any objection.
……
Big prayer, palace.
Li Chengru looked at the memorial in his hand. His mood was complex. He was angry, sad, but there was a trace of happiness.
Anger, sadness, because ye Xiaoxian was abducted by Jing Feng, life and death unknown.
Fortunately, Xiao Baoshan was caught off guard when he killed Beiqing, which shows that the military strength of Daqi Dynasty is also OK, no weaker than that of Beiqing army.
But how sad should Xiao Baoshan be when his wife is gone?
Is the leaf dead or alive?
Li Chengru looked at the memorial carefully. Xiao Baoshan did not apply to continue the war north.
The reason is that after so many things before the Daqi Dynasty, the national strength is insufficient and there is not enough funds to continue to fight north. If it is forced to attack, it is likely to run out of food and suffer even more heavy losses at that time.
Li Chengru sat stunned. On the one hand, he sympathized with Xiao Baoshan. On the other hand, he lamented that Xiao Baoshan took the overall situation into account.
He thought for a while and then ordered his father-in-law: "listen to my order and pass Mu Ziyun of the secret Pavilion into the palace."
The secret Pavilion is a secret organization of Daqi Dynasty. It specially trains spies. Their spies are distributed in all corners of countries and specialize in some secret operations.
People in the secret Pavilion can easily not see the emperor unless they have important information to report.
Mu Ziyun is now an old man in his fifties. As soon as he heard the emperor's call, he entered the palace overnight.
When Li Chengru saw Mu Ziyun, he handed him the memorial in his hand.
"Mu Aiqing, do you know this information?"
Mu Ziyun opened the memorial and saw the words "Xiao Baoshan", "Jing Feng", "Mrs. Xiao missing" and so on.
He hurriedly replied, "I already know about it!"
"Is there any news about Mrs. Xiao Hou in the secret pavilion?" Li Chengru asked again.
"Not yet!" Mu Ziyun said, "however, Weichen can send someone to investigate. If Mrs. Xiao is in Beiqing, it will be found out. Once it is found out, then send someone to secretly rescue Mrs. Xiao."
Li Chengru said, "then go and find someone."
Mu Ziyun took orders and then withdrew.
Li Chengru leaned on the Dragon chair and thought about the woman.
When he first met him, he put the knife around her neck. She was fearless. She said that she and xiaobaoshan had long lost the love between husband and wife. If you want to kill them, kill them.
When we meet again, everyone is fleeing. It was originally an unbearable road of suffering. Because of her, days can bloom flowers in suffering.
Later, he saw the infinite energy hidden under her petite body. He was virtually infected by her and became optimistic.
Such a woman, no matter where she is, should know how to protect herself?
……
Mobei.
Xiao Baoshan just came back from the barracks.
After the current battle, the soldiers are different from the past. In the past, everyone's face was full of unknown confusion. They always worried that one day the Beiqing army would kill them, and there would be no way back.
But after this battle, they suddenly settled down.
Xiaobaoshan is indeed a well deserved God of war!
The Great Prayer people won a great victory over the Beiqing people, and more than 10000 troops and horses won a great victory over their 15000 troops and horses.
From today on, I'm afraid the Beiqing army won't dare to commit it again in five years.
Yesterday, Beiqing army sent envoys to make peace with xiaobaoshan.
Xiao Baoshan only asked, "where is my wife? Where is she now?"
The envoy expressed empress Xiao's meaning: "it was Jing Feng who took your wife, not empress Xiao's will. Empress Xiao is willing to make amends for this. As for Mrs. Xiao, no one knows where she is."
Xiao Baoshan thought of what Jing Feng said before he died. He said that ye Xiaoxian was dead.
He was so angry that he was cut down.
Since Ye is not here, he refuses them to make peace. One day, he will lead his troops to flatten Beiqing.
……
"What? Xiao Baoshan actually cut down envoys?"
In Beiqing palace, Empress Dowager Xiao was shocked when she heard the minister's return.
The two armies did not kill envoys in the war. Now they are seeking peace.
Xiao Baoshan killed all the envoys, that is, he wrote down the account unless she could return ye Xiaoxian.
Empress Dowager Xiao leaned back on the back chair and forced herself to think coldly.
