When many people are young, they often think that they are the center of the whole world. When they cry, everyone is anxious, and when they smile, everyone is happy. But as time goes by, they gradually understand the difference between crying and laughing.
In fact, it is not that powerful, and many things will not change just because of crying or smiling.
Zhen Mi cried for ten days after her father passed away, but after ten days, her father was still dead and still not resurrected. Then Zhen Mi realized that her crying and laughter can only be expressed by those who love her.
It is only useful on the body, and the rest is of no use. But her beauty is coveted by many people.
Tears can only vent emotions and cannot save anything.
When one's own strength cannot protect oneself, beauty becomes a sin, an unforgivable sin even if it is revealed unconsciously.
The government office of General Hussar of the Han Dynasty is located to the west of Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City. This area actually originally belonged to the area of Weiyang Palace, but it was burned down during Wang Mang's period. The Weiyang Palace that was later restored was not that big and its area was also reduced.
Half, this half of the area was called the office space of other government offices, and various central government offices were set up. But strictly speaking, it turned out that Weiyang Palace was also the main office area of the Han emperor. These government offices originally also existed, but later because of the emperor's decision
Since they were all in Luoyang, the officials who stayed behind in Chang'an were no longer suitable to wander around the palace every day, so they simply erected a wall in the middle and divided it into two to save worry and effort.
Zhen Mi has no official status, so she can't go to the big square in front of her. Instead, she has to go to the side door, and then enters the backyard of the General's Mansion. Next to the Cang Pool, she meets Xijun of the General's Mansion, Huang Yueying.
.
Zhen Mi lowered her head, followed the maid who led the way, and walked forward cautiously.
Zhen Mi deliberately chose an extremely simple piece of clothing to wear today. Apart from the sachet around her waist and the jade hairpin on her head, there were no luxurious items, such as carved silver and jade.
Of course, they didn’t have any of them, they were all left in their own courtyard.
Because Zhen Mi heard that Huang Yueying, the wife of the Hussar, likes simplicity and does not like prosperity. Even if you may not like her, at least don't like her.
Huang Yueying sat in the Cangshui Pavilion, looking at Zhen Mi who was approaching Yingying, her eyes could not help but roll upward diagonally, and then returned to their original position.
"A folk girl pays homage to Mrs. Huang..."
Zhen Mi bowed her eyebrows and saluted Huang Yueying.
"...No courtesy, please take a seat..." Huang Yueying said. After Zhen Mi sat down, she signaled the maid to serve refreshments, and then said, "It's hard to come all the way from Jizhou?"
Is it hard...
It seems that it is not easy to answer in ordinary words. If you answer that it is not hard, it will give you a false name. Everyone knows whether it is hard to travel through mountains and rivers, and if you answer that it is hard, why bother if it is hard?
Coming here? Doesn't it show that he has a plan?
"With Mrs. Huang's care, I won't feel the hard work..." Zhen Mi replied.
Huang Yueying smiled and said: "She can talk..." and then invited Zhen Mi to have some tea.
Zhen Mi thanked Huang Yueying first, and then raised the tea bowl smoothly and steadily. The movement was gentle and smooth, which made Huang Yueying even doubt that the tea soup in the raised tea bowl would not even ripple at all...
Zhen Mi covered it slightly with her sleeves, drank a little, and put it down. The tea soup still didn't seem to move at all, as if it had solidified in the tea bowl.
"..." Huang Yueying looked at her tea bowl and suddenly didn't want to say anything.
The Zhen Mi in front of her looked well-behaved and courteous, but Huang Yueying didn't know why some troubles arose in her heart, and she felt that facing this Zhen Mi, it was better to go back and face the wood in her small courtyard.
Iron blocks are comfortable.
"Now that we've arrived in Chang'an, let's rest for a few days..." Huang Yueying said, "I'll make a decision on the rest of the matters after the hussars return..." After chatting for a while, Huang Yueying became less and less interested and ended it.
topic.
Although it is said that Zhen Mi has nothing wrong with her words, deeds, manners and appearance, Huang Yueying always feels like she is facing a beautifully sculpted puppet. Watching Zhen Mi salute again and leave slowly, she can't help but feel...
Frowning.
Although when Huang Yueying was young, some people said that "yang is strong as virtue, yin is soft as function, men are strong as noble, women are beautiful as weak", and there are other "four elements" and so on, but at that time Huang Cheng
Yan didn't use any "Female Commandments" to control her at all. Instead, she walked around the wood and iron blocks all day long, climbing up and down...
All the current etiquette standards are just because she is the wife of a hussar general and she has to hold them up. But in fact, Huang Yueying doesn't like it in her heart. As a result, she saw a woman who seemed to be extremely in line with the so-called "Female Commandments".
》A standard woman suddenly felt uncomfortable everywhere in her body.
Huang Yueying always thought that the women mentioned in "The Female Commandment" did not exist at all and were characters in an ideal state. However, what she did not expect was that she actually saw some shadows in Zhen Mi, which made Huang Yueying feel unhappy.
I know why I started to feel uneasy.
Back in her small courtyard, Huang Yueying suddenly thought of something, stretched out four fingers to pull at it, and then her face became worse and worse. In the end, she was so angry that she didn't have the time to think about the half-made armor.
, went straight to the room and said he was tired and wanted to sleep...
On the other side, Zhen Mi walked out of the backyard of General Hussar's office and was muttering in her heart. In her opinion, Huang Yueying, the so-called wife of General Hussar, was obviously incompetent.
Although the backyard has been cleaned, you can still see some oil stains remaining on some stone joints and brick surfaces, and even some traces of smoke...
This kind of superficial cleaning would be enough for an ordinary family, but for the palace of the majestic Han Hussar General...
In addition, there are many years of moss on the pillars on the water surface of Cangshui Pavilion. It is obvious that no one has cleaned it at all...
Yes, it is normal for the water surface to rise in spring and summer and fall back in autumn and winter. However, it does not mean that we should not clean up the pillars just because they are outside the pavilion and cannot be seen from inside.
Also, the servants and maids had no rules. When they saw the guests coming, they knelt down and saluted by the road without understanding. They just stepped aside for a moment and continued to do their own things...
What's even more frightening is that when Huang Yueying eats cakes, crumbs will fall down!
If this were in the Zhen family...
No wonder some people in Jizhou say that the people of Shanxi are as barbaric as the barbarians. Now it seems that they are not entirely wrong. What I didn't expect is that such people who don't know etiquette forced the gentry in Jizhou and even
Have yourself...
Zhen Mi exhaled a low breath, and then closed her eyes silently.
……┑(￣Д￣)┍……
At this moment, Cao Chun was also sighing silently.
Chen Liu.
A big man sitting cross-legged in the tent, with his armor lifted up by his muscles, was slapping the table in a dull manner, "Why don't you march now?!"
Cao Chun's face turned slightly blue, and he forced a smile and said: "Brother Miaocai, this is the Lord's order..."
"I know it's the Lord's order!" Xia Houyuan's voice was still loud, "If not, I would have led the troops out long ago! I just asked why they didn't march!" Two days ago, Xia Houyuan couldn't help it anymore.
Now I've been holding it in for two more days, and I really can't bear it anymore.
Cao Chun really wanted to jump up and yell, "Are you asking such a damn thing? It's almost the same as blaming the lord!"
But now, Cao Chun could only sigh silently in his heart, and persuaded again: "The Lord will definitely have arrangements, Brother Miaocai might as well wait patiently..."
"My lord may not understand the situation..." Xia Houyuan said matter-of-factly, "What's more, we are so close to Luoyang, only a day or two away. If there are any changes, how can we wait for the lord's order? Isn't that right?
Is everything too late?』
Cao Chun became alert, stared for a while, and then said, "What exactly does Brother Miaocai want to say?"
Xia Houyuan wanted to have a showdown with General Hussar's cavalry very early on. The last time he was pulled back by Cao Chun, it was like a stone weighing on his heart. Now he finally had the opportunity to face each other.
It's like carrying a dozen kittens in your arms, with hundreds of paws scratching your heart every day. How can you sit in Chenliu and wait for orders?
But Xia Houyuan knew that if Cao Chun did not agree, he would not be able to lead the soldiers out. After all, Cao Chun had Cao Cao's sword in his hand, so if Xia Houyuan wanted to lead his troops out, the first person he had to deal with was Cao Chun. Of course, not
He said he wanted to kill Cao Chun, but he wanted to persuade Cao Chun.
Xia Houyuan said categorically: "The Hussar General is stationed in Luoyang, so he must have follow-up measures!"
Cao Chun couldn't help but want to roll his eyes. For you, this must be the case...
"General Hussar also knows that we are here!" Xia Houyuan pointed outside and continued.
"This..." Cao Chun touched his beard and pondered. Although he and Xia Houyuan tried their best to control the surroundings, there was no guarantee that they would not be noticed by the hussar general. After all, there were a large number of troops near Chenliu, indeed.
It's also difficult to cover up completely.
Xia Houyuan made another dubious sound and patted the table, "Logically speaking, if the Cavalry General defeats us, doesn't it mean that he can basically move around freely and no one can catch up?!"
Cao Chun took a breath.
Although Xia Houyuan said this, he was somewhat frustrated, but it was true. Cao Cao's army was short of horses.
If the troops are crippled by the Hussar General, it is indeed as Xia Houyuan said, and no one will be able to keep up with the movement speed of the Hussar General. You know, from Yanzhou to Xuzhou, it is near Taishan County
There are more mountains, and other places...
"This..." Cao Chun asked, "Brother Miaocai, do you have any ideas? You might as well say it clearly..."
Xia Houyuan waved his arms and said: "What is the most important thing about cavalry? It is not to be stationed somewhere like infantry! It should be moving! Only when it is moving, the cavalry is the most powerful! We are now
The number is obviously smaller than that of the Hussars, so how can we just stay here and wait for the Hussars to attack? We should move, move!"
Cao Chun hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything immediately.
The purpose of Cao Cao's cavalry stationing at Chenliu in Yanzhou is not very complicated, because Yanzhou serves as a link between the upper and lower areas. Whether it is going to Jizhou or Yuzhou, it only takes a day or two, and stationed in Yanzhou can also cover the depth, otherwise Piao
If the cavalry really goes crazy and attacks Qingzhou and Xuzhou, it will probably be too late to send troops and horses from Jizhou or Yuzhou to intercept them.
But just like what Xia Houyuan said, the troops stationed in Chenliu are also an obvious target for Fei Qian. If Fei Qian catches them and beats them up, even if they are replaced one by one, it may not have any effect on the overall situation.
Help, not to mention that Cao Chun didn't feel that his cavalry could defeat the skilled cavalry in Yongliang.
"What's more, the Hussar has many cavalry. Even if they are divided into separate places, how can we know?"
Are there 5,000 people under Luoyang, or 6,000, or 7,800? Or are they actually just those seen on the surface, and the rest of the troops have left? You must know that Luoyang can also divert to Hanoi, and then march to Jizhou
Yes! Yes, that’s right, maybe Luoyang City is just an empty shell! Lord... you and I have all been deceived!"
The more Xia Houyuan talked, the more he felt that he made sense. He stood up and walked around the tent like a trapped animal. "Even if the hussars have not divided their troops, then he must be waiting for the follow-up steps."
Soldier! If we do nothing, are we waiting for the Hussars to gather in large numbers? My lord, my lord, he is not here, he does not understand the situation on the front line! We should move now, move! At least we must understand Luoyang City
situation, isn’t it? Right?!』
"This..." Cao Chun frowned and couldn't say anything for a moment. What Xia Houyuan said made sense. If General Hussar divided his troops, then he and his men were just waiting there stupidly.
, it does seem quite stupid, but my lord, couldn’t I have thought of this? Or is there some other arrangement on my lord’s side?
"Waiting for a letter to my lord..." Cao Chun finally decided to write a letter to communicate.
Xia Houyuan jumped up, "A letter? How to write it? Just write some conjectures? If you succeed, that's fine. If it doesn't match the reality, wouldn't it harm the lord?!"
"After talking for a long time, Brother Miaocai still wants to send troops!" Cao Chun shook his head and said, "Hussars are accustomed to ambushes. If they advance rashly, they will most likely be ambushed again..."
"Ah ha ha ha..." Xia Houyuan laughed and said, "Who is so stupid? Still chasing after knowing that there is an ambush? If someone encounters someone who is pretending to be defeated, he will definitely not chase him. No matter how good the ambush is, what's the use?
Hahaha, besides, if you don’t go and see with your own eyes, how can you know what’s going on under Luoyang? What’s more, at present, only we can move, right?” Indeed, Xiahou Dun in the south is still Cao Cao in the north
, both are mainly infantry. If we talk about mobility, it is indeed not as nimble as Xia Houyuan's.
"Just take a look? No pursuit?" Cao Chun looked at Xia Houyuan, shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid Brother Miaocai won't be able to hold back..."
"This!" Xia Houyuan was furious and yelled, "I keep my word! If the hussar retreats after pretending to be defeated, we will never pursue him! We can issue a military order!"
Cao Chun thought for a moment. Although this move was a bit risky, as Xia Houyuan said, being able to find out Fei Qian's true identity was naturally better than doing nothing here. However, Cao Chun was still a little worried, so he said:
"In this case, Brother Miaocai leads a thousand soldiers and horses in front, and the rest of the order is behind. If there is a change, we can also support it, how about it?" Although it is said to be support, Cao Chun actually thought that if Xia Houyuan couldn't help it,
If he really goes after him, he can still pull him back to some extent.
Xia Houyuan curled his lips, although he was a little dissatisfied, but if he could go out and have fun, he would do anything!
"Okay! Everything is at your discretion! One thousand is one thousand!"
