The messenger bowed his head and began: "Your Majesty, when Zuowei General Zhao Changyuan led his army through the territory of Mozhou City, he was surrounded by Liao generals Yeluqi and Han Zhang..."
Before he could finish his words, the emperor couldn't sit still: "What? What's the situation now?" Not only the emperor, but also most of the military attachés, especially Zhao Xiong and Han Chenglie, turned pale.
The messenger then raised his head and said loudly: "Both Yeluqi and Han Zhang were killed on the spot by General Zhao. Our army captured more than 10,000 Liao soldiers and killed 2,000 enemy soldiers. This is a personal letter from Marshal Zhao!"
Please read it to the emperor!" After hearing this, the emperor was overjoyed. He took the letter, read it, pinched his beard and said, "Master Pan, what a good thing your son has done!" Master Pan didn't know why, but his face turned pale with fright, and he immediately stepped forward and knelt down.
Discount: "Your Majesty, forgive me!" Unexpectedly, the emperor laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, forgive me? What crime do you forgive? Your son has made a great contribution this time! See for yourself!" After saying that, he asked Eunuch Tong to write the letter.
Pass it to Master Pan for review.
Pan Yu took a closer look and found that the letter explained his son Pan Jingyuan's achievements in rescuing Cao Rui's troops.
The emperor felt very comfortable, and most of his fear of the Liao army faded away in an instant: "It is my decree that the victory in the first battle at the border is due to the soldiers. All the generals who participated in the war were promoted to one rank, and Pan Jingyuan, a Forbidden Army soldier, was granted the title of fifth-grade regimental training envoy.
, Zhao Changyuan was granted the title of General Huaihua of the third rank!" After saying that, he turned to look at Tong Xian: "Eunuch Tong!" "The slave is here!"
"I order you to rush to the border immediately to announce the reward!"
"Slave, I obey!" Eunuch Tong was extremely happy. Going to meet his male god with an imperial edict, what else could make girls more excited than this?
The emperor's uncle rubbed his palms and couldn't help but praise Zhao Xiong with a bit of envy, jealousy and hatred: "Zhao Xiong, Zhao Xiong, you are really good at giving birth!"
Back at the Zhao Mansion in Luoyang, Han Chenglie told the story of what happened at the Jinluan Palace at the dinner table. He knew that Zhao Xiong was happy and wanted to share it with his family, but he was too embarrassed to say it, so he did it for him in a considerate way.
Ichiban.
Apart from Zhao Xiong, the one who is most proud is of course Liu. When she heard the last words spoken by the emperor, her eyes widened with a look of pride that could not be concealed on her face: "Really? Did the emperor really say that?"
"Yeah! Not missing a word!" Han Chenglie answered her with a smile.
Mrs. Liu immediately started to cry: "Oh, my son..." The lively sixth aunt was not to be outdone: "Oh, my good nephew... you really save our family's face!"
Gong Yueyue was the only one at the dinner table, and she was not happy. Because after she heard that Zhao Changyuan was surrounded by the group of Liao people, she couldn't listen to anything else: "The pretty boy... was beaten... then...
Is he injured?"
Han Chenglie saw that her face was not very good, so he quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, judging from the emperor's expression, he probably didn't mention the injury in his letter."
She had no appetite at all: "Mom, Dad, I'm full... I want to go inside and rest for a while."
Mrs. Liu was a little worried: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? You don't look good..."
"No...no..." She actually just wanted to go back to the house and cry. Her worry at the moment could not be described in words. When Du Ruotong came to visit her a few days ago, he also burst into tears in front of her. She also
Pretend to be strong to comfort others...
Aunt Six stood up and supported her: "I'll take you back to the house."
"Thank you Aunt Six."
As soon as she reached the door of the dining room, Tian Hai ran in ecstatically and said to her: "Young Mistress! Young Mistress! There is a letter from the young master!" Gong Yueyue's originally gloomy face lit up instantly: "Ah, really?" Tian Hai nodded straightly:
"The young master specially sent someone to ride a fast horse to deliver it to the door of our house!" Everyone left the dining table and leaned over. She hurriedly opened the envelope. The moment she opened it, disappointment surged into her heart: "
This... what is all this he said? Why can't I understand a word of it? I mean... this is all a mess..."
The Sixth Aunt beside her knew her details. She must not be able to understand this kind of ancient and serious family letter. After all, she had stayed here for so many years, but she was much better than her. She hurriedly took the letter: "I
Look, yo, this is for his parents."
Mrs. Liu suddenly became energetic: "Oh, Master, come and read..." Everyone in the dining room was excited because of a thin piece of letter paper. When Gong Yueyue left, no one even noticed: "Mom and Dad, I'm going back to the house
Already..."
As he talked, tears of grievance overflowed from the corners of his eyes. He usually used sweet words to her around him. As soon as he left the house, he ignored her and heard nothing from her at all. It really drove her crazy.
He pushed open the door angrily and closed it with his backhand. He was about to walk to the bedside and cry loudly. Suddenly he felt a strange aura behind him. Just as he was about to turn around, someone covered his mouth from behind: "Ah wuwu..."
"She could only make a sound like a puppy begging for mercy.
First, a familiar smell rushed into my nose, and then, a familiar voice that I could hear clearly even if I pressed my throat: "Shh... it's me... it's me."
She thought she was dreaming, until she turned around, saw her husband's face, stretched out her hand and touched his skin, and then she believed that it was not a dream: "It's you..." She almost screamed out with joy.
Zhao Changyuan quickly made a silence gesture: "Shhh... we can't let others know that I left my post without permission, and I will be executed."
She was shocked: "Then why are you back?"
A warm smile bloomed on his face: "Send a letter to my parents...give it to you..."
Due to his excitement, his panic breath blew on her face, making her almost dizzy: "Mr.
"Are you okay?" he asked and she nodded.
"Do you miss me?" He asked again, and she still nodded desperately.
"Are you okay?" she asked, lowering her voice and crying delicately.
But he shook his head: "No. I miss you."
Seeing his bright eyes and the smile on his lips, Gong Yueyue was so happy that she hooked her neck and started to peck him lightly.
When Zhao Changyuan came back from this adventure, he really didn't come back out of lust, he just wanted to see her and express his love for her. After all, she was pregnant with a baby, and he knew how to measure things.
"Madam... Madam... let's have a nice conversation. If you do this, I..."
She seemed as if she hadn't heard anything, and just wanted to use her gentle lips to relieve his painful longing...
After spending a long time, she was already more exposed. She rested quietly on his arm, and rubbed the thin layer of moss on his chin back and forth with her little hands. The fatigue in his eyes was covered by a thick smile, and his eyes
Her shadow is printed all over.
Suddenly, a crisp call from outside the door startled them both: "Yueyue, are you in there?"
Gong Yueyue subconsciously covered Zhao Changyuan's head with the quilt: "Oh, Sixth Aunt, I'm asleep." After she said hesitantly, she herself wondered why she was sleeping with her husband if she wasn't stealing from him.
So nervous?
Outside the door, mother-in-law Mrs. Liu's concerned greeting came again: "Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to find a doctor for you?" "Uh, no need, Mom, I'm much better, I'm just a little sleepy."
"If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you must tell us." Seeing that the lights in her room were all out, Mrs. Liu probably fell asleep, so she didn't ask any more questions.
"Yes, I will, don't worry mom."
"Hey, you should have a good rest."
After the shadow outside the door walked away, Gong Yueyue pulled back the quilt covering Zhao Changyuan's face, pinched his chin, and said angrily: "Mom misses you too. You are so heartless when you avoid her like this."
He smiled and said: "There is no way, if my father finds out, he will beat me to death."
"Are you hungry?" she asked with concern, and at the same time, she consciously scratched his stomach with her little hand.
"I brought my own dry food." As he said that, he took out a bag of dry food from his robe beside the bed.
"Is this the legendary military ration?" She said with curiosity on her face.
He heard a "gurgling" sound from her stomach and knew that the child was hungry again. He smiled and tore a piece of dry bread into her mouth: "Well, try it."
"Hey, it's quite delicious." She was hungry now, and everything she caught tasted delicious.
Seeing that she ate it deliciously, he tore it into pieces and fed them to her: "In more than a month, you will go to me, right?"
She nodded, chewed the bread, and said in a unclear voice: "Yes, I will. When I give birth to the baby, I will be wherever you are. I won't let you take such a risk again."
He was very satisfied with her obedient and cooperative attitude: "I will remember what you said. If you dare to be lazy and refuse to follow me in the future, I will..." "Bite me to death, I know. You won't
Any other tricks?"
The two of them laughed and quarreled for a while under the quilt like silkworm chrysalis. They felt that sparks were rising again, so they had to tuck in the quilt and talk side by side. "By the way, I didn't even talk about you. I heard that you were surrounded and beaten again this time.
Really?" Gong Yueyue recalled what Han Chenglie said at the dinner table and couldn't help but frown and question her husband.
Zhao Changyuan grabbed her hand from under the quilt and squeezed it while playing with it. He said with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, this is all a trap I deliberately set. It's not too dangerous." He told her roughly what happened that day.
Once, but concealed the fact that he almost died during the duel with Yeluqi.
"It's best that this is the case. You behaved well this time and didn't cause any new injuries." At this point, she became energetic again. She turned sideways and lifted the corner of the quilt, letting his chest be fully visible: "Look at you.
, is there any place on the body that can be damaged? It will look like an abstract painting by Van Gogh." After saying that, he quickly covered him again.
He was confused by what he said, and frowned and asked: "What... trouble... what kind of bad words? Oh, I haven't been back for a few days, and you are already disgusted with me."
Her fingers began to restlessly play the piano on his skin: "I don't think I dislike him."
"What is that? Tell me what it is." He deliberately refused to let her go, insisting on hearing a soft word from her.
"Feeling sad..."
Her careless sweet words made him feel comfortable from head to toe. But suddenly he remembered the nightmare he had had that night, and his happy mood was instantly wiped away.
"Madam, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask." She tore another piece of bread into her mouth and chewed it. (To be continued)
