"Dig a lake?" Peilan's eyes were full of disbelief, and he repeated it again, as if he wanted to confirm it with Yun Changzai.
Yun Shang nodded: "Yes, even if you dig a lake, I don't know if there are lotus flowers in Lingxi City. If there are, after digging the lake and transplanting it, you can enjoy the lotus flowers."
After Yun Shang finished speaking, he walked into the room, leaving Peilan alone in the main room, confused as to what Yun Shang's intention was.
It was already Haishi, but Bao'er was not asleep yet. He was sitting on the couch where Yun Shang was sleeping, playing with a rattle. He quickly turned his head when he heard the footsteps. When he saw Yun Shang, his eyes suddenly lit up.
, clapped his hands and opened his hands towards Yun Shang.
Yun Shang quickly stepped forward to hug Bao'er and said with a smile: "I heard that Bao'er was very good today and didn't even cry. Mother is really happy. Our Bao'er is really sensible."
Baoer laughed "hehe", with a sly look in his eyes.
Peilan's voice came from behind: "Your Majesty, do you want your servant to prepare dinner?" Peilan seemed to have woken up from the fright, and walked into the room and asked softly.
When Yun Shang heard Peilan ask, she realized that she had only eaten one cake today, and had eaten nothing until noon. Suddenly she felt a little hungry, so she nodded and said, "Let's prepare some food."
.”
Peilan responded and retreated again.
Yun Shang hugged Bao'er, put the letter under her pillow, and pressed it with a jade pillow. She thought in her heart that Xia Houjing went to Jincheng for the throne. Luo Qingyan and she were neither in the palace. Indeed,
It's a good opportunity.
But this matter, for Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan, is also an excellent opportunity. In order to guard against Yun Shang and his people, Xia Houjing will definitely sneak into Jincheng quietly. In this way
, it is definitely impossible to bring all the soldiers stationed in Liucang City into Jincheng. The fewer people around Xiahou Jing, the easier it will be for Ning Qian and the others to succeed. Just counting the days, Ning Qian seems to be about to give birth.
Already.
Yun Shang frowned slightly. With Ning Qian's temperament, if Yun Shang left this matter in her hands, she would definitely get it done regardless. But...
Yun Shang was silent for a moment, then put Bao'er on the couch, called Hua'er to guard him, then walked behind the desk, unfolded the paper, rubbed the ink, and wrote a letter to Qianyin.
When Peilan came in with the food, Yun Shang had already written the letter, took the envelope and sealed it, then handed it to Peilan: "Send someone to send the letter back to Jincheng, to Qianshui Yiren Pavilion, and hand it over."
In the hands of Qianyin."
Peilan responded and went out.
Yun Shang sat down, looked at the table full of food, turned to look at Bao'er who was staring at her on the bed, and then asked Hua'er: "What did Bao'er eat before?"
"The porridge that the little prince eats is boiled with some minced meat and vegetable leaves." Hua'er said with a smile: "I heard from the wet nurse that children will generally be extremely uncomfortable when weaned, but when I look at the little prince, I seem to like it more
Now I have something to eat.”
After Yun Shang heard this, her eyes fell on Bao'er, and she smiled and said, "Maybe the cook did a good job and it suits Bao'er's appetite."
Yun Shang had dinner, washed up, and then took Bao'er to sleep with her.
Early the next morning, Yun Shang still got up very early. Although he decided to use the formation to defeat the enemy, the essence of the formation lies not only in the changes and cooperation of the soldiers in the formation, but also if he can find a favorable terrain,
But it definitely gets twice the result with half the effort.
The mountain to the west of Lingxi City is called Phoenix Mountain. According to legend, you can see the phoenix spreading its wings when watching the sunrise on the top of the mountain. However, although the legend is extremely beautiful, it is not a small test to climb Phoenix Mountain.
Compared with Langya Mountain yesterday, Fenghuang Mountain is steeper and the mountain road is difficult to navigate. As soon as Yun Shang reached the foot of the mountain, he knew that the horses would definitely not be able to go up today, so he asked all the secret guards to get off.
She sent two people to watch the horse at the bottom of the mountain, while the others followed her up the mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, mist was already lingering, and Yun Shang's hair was already half wet. Yun Shang stopped, took out the map from his sleeve and looked at it. There were only three garrison points on Fenghuang Mountain, and they were all
In places where the mountains are relatively gentle, it must be because the terrain is too steep.
The further up the mountain went, the fewer the birds chirped in the forest, and Yun Shang saw the footprints of wild beasts on the muddy ground more than once or twice.
"Master, if we go further up, I'm afraid it will be a little dangerous, and it's already getting late. If we go up further, I'm afraid we'll have to rest in the mountains today." Walking beside Yun Shang.
The leader of the secret guards spoke, with a hint of persuasion in his words.
Yun Shang looked at the map. The place where they were currently was indeed still some distance from the top of the mountain. Moreover, a smart person like Cang Jue Qingsu would not let the army go to Phoenix Mountain. Once they got to Phoenix Mountain,
If the Xia army had not launched an attack, their soldiers would have been greatly reduced.
Yun Shang gently nodded, took the water bag handed over by the secret guard, and took a sip of water, his eyes never leaving the map. Phoenix Mountain runs from south to north, but the northernmost point is not far away from the Yelang Kingdom's army station.
Far away, but separated by a long canyon.
"Go north." Yun Shang put away the map, handed the water bag to the secret guard, and then led the secret guard to change direction.
When he arrived at the northernmost part of Phoenix Mountain, Yun Shang happened to see the sun setting. To the north of Phoenix Mountain was a cliff, and the mountain seemed to have been cut off by a knife. The canyon below was the dividing point between Yelang Kingdom and Xia Kingdom.
The east and west sides of the mountain were slightly gentler. It was getting late, so Yun Shang took the secret guards down the mountain. When they were about a mile away from the bottom of the mountain, Yun Shang saw a stone forest. Looking from the mountain,
The stone forest looks extremely spectacular, with many stones standing four or five people high, and the stones are also in different shapes.
When I got closer, I saw that the stones were all covered with thick moss, and the distances between the stones were different. Walking in, it was like walking into a maze. Yun Shang wandered around for a while, but couldn't get out of the way.
Go around the rocks.
The secret guards carried Yun Shang to the left and right, and jumped onto the stone. Only then did Yun Shang realize that the stone forest stretched for almost two or three miles, which was terrifying.
"Master, there are rocks everywhere, blocking the way, and the fog makes it difficult to identify the direction, making it easy to get lost. Let's avoid this place." The secret guard said softly.
To avoid it, Yun Shang looked around. There were cliffs to the north and dense forests to the south. To avoid it, they could only walk through the forest. They had also walked the road in the forest before. It was very muddy and there were various obstacles in the forest.
There are many kinds of ferocious beasts.
Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled: "This is an excellent place to set up the formation."
The secret guards didn't know why Yun Shang said this, and they all had some doubts in their eyes. Yun Shang raised his eyes and said, "Take me over these rocks. I'll take a closer look at the positions of these rocks, so that I can draw a picture after I go back."
.”
The secret guard responded and took Yun Shang to use Qing Kung Fu and jumped over the stone forest.
After going down the mountain and returning to the city guard's mansion, Yun Shang didn't even have time to eat, so she locked herself in the study, took pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and drew the positions of each stone in the stone forest one by one.
come out.
It was already late at night after the painting was finished. Yun Shang put the paper away and returned to his bedroom to sleep.
When I woke up the next morning, it was already bright. Bao'er was being held in Hua'er's arms and being fed breakfast. Yun Shang looked at it for a while before speaking: "Where's Peilan?"
Hua'er quickly said: "Peilan is in the kitchen, I will go find her now."
Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Nothing, just keep feeding Bao'er."
Bao'er seemed to be full, and turned a blind eye to the rice porridge Hua'er fed him, looking at Yun Shang with a smile.
Yun Shang sat up, took some clothes and put them on herself. Bao'er had already been tidied up and was sitting on the chair in an orderly manner, with one hand still holding the armrest of the chair.
Yun Shang couldn't help but laugh when she saw such a young person looking so serious. She picked up Bao'er and kissed her forehead with a smile: "Our Bao'er is so well-behaved."
Yun Shang and Bao'er played together for a while, and then Peilan walked in. Seeing that Yun Shang had already gotten up, he quickly walked to Yun Shang and said, "Why didn't you summon me when your Majesty woke up? This slave will be your Majesty's.
Tie up your hair." He then asked Yun Shang if he still needed to go out to check the terrain today.
Yun Shang shook her head and said with a smile: "Just put your hair in a simple bun."
Peilan agreed and helped Yun Shang sit in front of the bronze mirror.
Bao'er lay in Yun Shang's arms and was unwilling to let go. Yun Shang had no choice but to sit down with Bao'er in her arms. Her eyes fell on the bronze mirror and looked at Peilan: "The letter that was sent the day before yesterday can be sent to
Your Majesty?"
Peilan nodded: "It has been reported. The secret guard who sent the message said that Your Majesty said nothing."
Yun Shang nodded, took out Bao'er's finger from his mouth, and wiped it with a brocade handkerchief: "Have you chosen a good place to dig the lake?"
"After the selection has been made, the queen can go and have a look after breakfast. It is in the west garden. There is no one in the house now. There are a few guest rooms in the west, so they can be demolished directly. In this way, there should be several acres of
"Earth." Peilan smiled slightly, her voice calm.
Yun Shang said softly "Yeah" and responded.
Peilan then said: "But now the city has almost become an empty city, and there are no craftsmen to be found. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the empress to see lotus flowers in summer."
When Yun Shang heard this, the corner of her mouth raised slightly, she took out a very elegant wooden hairpin from the coffin and handed it to Peilan, and responded softly: "What kind of craftsman do you want? To dig a lake, you don't need to carve one."
For Hua'er, just let our secret guards do it. We brought nearly 300 secret guards to Lingxi. Normally we don't need that many, so let's allocate 150 people to do this."
When Peilan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he quickly said with a smile: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful, but I never thought of doing this. I even said that I would borrow some soldiers from the camp."
"Soldiers are not bad, but the war is urgent. If I call on soldiers again, it is wrong." Yun Shang said calmly. (To be continued)
