The Guanlong rebels once again increased their troops, and the war in Taiji Palace gradually escalated. The two sides started fighting to the death around every palace and tower. They fought for every inch of land and fought to the death. A small half of Taiji Palace was reduced to scorched earth, and the rebels poured in from Chengtianmen.
, fought to the death with Donggong Liu for a whole day and night around the Taiji Hall, and the battle was fierce.
It's just that although the rebels increased their troops again, they were exhausted. The sixth rate of Donggong at the end of the battle was supported by Youtun Guards. Three thousand elite soldiers entered Taiji Palace from Xuanwu Gate and Cheng Chubi, who stood guard on the front line of Taiji Palace and Liangyi Palace.
The troops changed their defenses, and Cheng Chubi's troops withdrew from Taiji Palace and went to the Youtunwei camp for repairs.
The addition of new forces increased Donggong Liu's combat power, and they refused to retreat after losing the Taiji Palace. The battle situation once again fell into anxiety.
However, the situation of the war has completely reversed. Although the Guanlong army has a large number of people, the Youtun Guards and the Anxi Army are all elites who have fought in hundreds of battles. The combat power of the Guanlong army against the ragtag army is much greater. The only thing the Guanlong army can rely on is
With the numerical advantage, starting from the capture of the Imperial City, every step forward was taken at the cost of human lives.
But how long can an army that only has family self-interest in its eyes and no faith support be able to persist in the face of increasing battle losses?
After Fang Jun led his troops back to reinforce and arrived outside Xuanwu Gate, Xuanwu Gate, which could only be defended by half of the Youtun Guards, became even more solid. Guanlong's army had almost no chance of capturing Xuanwu Gate. If Dong Gong made up his mind, he would
If the war drags on, as long as the Xuanwu Gate is firmly guarded and a large number of soldiers are transferred into the Taiji Palace to fight fiercely with the Guanlong army to defend the palace city, it will be difficult for the Guanlong army to gain a local advantage, even if they have more troops.
There are more and more opinions inside and outside Chang'an that the East Palace is about to turn defeat into victory.
*****
Hundreds of private soldiers with helmets on their heads, carrying swords across their waists, patrolled back and forth around more than a dozen tents, forming a "camp within a camp", surrounded by a series of military camps on the right.
In the tent, Princess Gaoyang washed herself under the service of the maid, and changed into a set of black palace clothes. Her skin was even more white than snow, and she was exquisite and charming, but her expression was weak. When she sat on the couch, she wore a snow-white dress.
Covering the small mouth of the cherry with her delicate hand, she yawned.
The whole person is lazy and charming, exuding an elegant style.
Wu Meiniang and Jin Shengman had breakfast, entered the tent one after another, and sat on the chairs beside them. Their eyes looked up and down at Princess Gaoyang with great interest.
Red, I couldn't help but feel a burning sensation in my heart when I saw your pitiful face.
She was already a beautiful person, but now, after being moistened by wind and rain, she has a completely different style that is breathtaking...
Princess Gaoyang, who was suffering from severe lack of sleep and was feeling unbearable, held her sore waist and cursed in her heart that the scoundrel was shameless and had to do those weird postures, which made her feel like she had lost bones... Suddenly she felt something abnormal, and her eyes
Opening his eyes wide, he met two pairs of meaningful and envious eyes...
"What are you looking at? It's weird."
Princess Gao Yang blushed, took back the hand that was massaging her waist, and glared at the two of them, not saying anything nice or angry.
Wu Meiniang blinked and said softly: "It's the twelfth lunar month of winter. Your Highness should keep warm at night and never step on the quilt. Otherwise, you will catch the cold and wind chill, and you will be unable to sleep from tossing back and forth in the middle of the night. This is no joke."
Jin Shengman never dared to say such words, but he just couldn't help it and covered his lips and smiled.
Princess Gao Yang blushed even more and glared at Wu Meiniang fiercely. She looked around and said, "It's snowing heavily today and the weather is getting colder. I'll find some fox furs later and send someone to the army to deliver them to Lang Jun. Return them to me."
"Yes, Lang Jun returned from the Western Regions all the way. He was lightly dressed and ate very little food. He must have not brought any tea with him. Drinking is not allowed in the army. You can send some good tea to General Gao Kan."
Wu Meiniang hurriedly agreed and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, I have already prepared my body. I just wanted to wait until the husband comes back in the evening. Since Your Highness is concerned, I will send someone to send it over later."
"hehe,"
Princess Gaoyang caught the clue, sneered, and said sarcastically: "Oh, look at this ability to know the cold and the hot. All eyes are on your husband. I'm afraid he didn't sleep a wink last night? I should have known that.
, I should call you over and wait on you."
Wu Meiniang couldn't resist these words, her face turned red and she didn't dare to say any more.
After all, this kind of thing has been done more than once before. If Princess Gaoyang talks about it regardless of anything, even if there is only Jin Shengman in front of her, it will be embarrassing enough.
His Highness went crazy, and even Wu Meiniang had a headache with his reckless energy...
I can only apologize: "You are a princess and a lady in charge of the house, why do you have to worry about it with a concubine like us? It's all my fault, I won't dare to do it again."
Princess Gaoyang snorted and raised her delicate chin slightly: "Of all the concubines in the world, which one has your status in our family? I don't know how many women inside and outside Chang'an City are envious.
It’s all red, don’t be dissatisfied.”
But as she said, Wu Meiniang's status in the family is really not comparable to that of ordinary concubines. Even she relies on her and obeys her words, so she won't beat too much, and she can't beat her...
Turning to look at Jin Shengman, he said warmly: "This time your husband returns to Beijing, he has a heavy responsibility, so he will not be able to stay in the camp for long. When your husband comes back tonight, I will ask him to go to your residence, and you must serve him well."
Stay tuned, work harder, and strive to give birth to Lin'er already, so that the Fang family can flourish."
Jin Shengman didn't expect that the topic would suddenly turn to him. He was at a loss and blushed: "Ah? I, I, I..."
"What's there to be ashamed of?"
Princess Gaoyang frowned slightly and scolded softly: "It is the duty of a daughter's family to have children. Our greatest responsibility is to raise the children for our husband and to expand the branches of the Fang family. Otherwise, what will happen to such a huge family business in the future?"
Pass it on? Furthermore, after the husband has conquered thousands of miles and returned, we women should serve him wholeheartedly and try our best to please him. If it is placed in another house, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear the rain and dew if you want to ask for it. "
After all, Jin Shengman had not been newly married for a long time. Although she knew that Princess Gaoyang was right, she still couldn't bear such harsh words.
However, the truth is correct. The head wives of other families are wary of concubines in almost every possible way. Whenever the male master stays in the house for a few days, he will beat and oppress him in various ways, and even threaten his status.
, the abortion pill Hedinghong takes turns to be used, concubines in aristocratic families are almost the same as livestock, and violent deaths are common...
Princess Gaoyang, who not only does not take precautions against persecution, but also tells you to serve your husband well and get pregnant and give birth to a child as soon as possible, is simply rare.
Jin Shengman was not ungrateful, he nodded with a blushing face: "If I know this, I will definitely serve you well and help the Fang family...as soon as possible."
Princess Gaoyang said happily: "This is right! Our daughter's family is dependent on men, so we should do our best to do our own things. We should not let men worry about the affairs of the back house. We can dedicate ourselves to national affairs and make contributions. I am magnanimous and will never do anything.
I will be wary of you and persecute you cruelly like other people. All I want is for your family and everything to be prosperous. I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts and serve your husband together with me, so that your family will be prosperous and harmonious.
."
These words were truly sincere. She had always been impatient with those intrigues and jealousies. Since God favored marrying the man she loved, her wish was fulfilled. She didn't care at all whether the man would sleep outside and play with flowers.
As for men, it is their nature to be drunk, lustful and wealthy. As long as they have the ability to make women throw themselves into their arms, then why not?
As for the wives and concubines at home, she was too lazy to be jealous. As long as they stayed calm and didn't cause any trouble, she wouldn't even look at them. With her status as a golden princess, no matter how much her husband pampered any of them, she would still be able to do it.
Can you climb on her head?
As long as her position as the wife of the wife is stable, no one will dare to make trouble. She is not a vegetarian...
Wu Meiniang smiled and said: "We are lucky to have a sister like Your Highness, so we should be content."
With her arrogant heart, she would naturally feel resentful when she was reduced to a concubine. However, while she was grateful for Princess Gaoyang's generosity, she also recognized and admired her. Putting herself in her shoes, she didn't think she could do that.
So generous...
Everyone has a destiny. Now that she has met a husband who is worthy of her deep love and has such a majestic wife, she has already appointed him, and she will not be unwilling to be lonely and cause trouble in the family.
The three girls were sitting together, drinking tea and chatting about private matters in the inner house, but the topic inevitably turned to the husband's "lovemaking"...
