The spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River is continuous, with warm moisture in the air, which is particularly cold in the morning and night.

This is especially true in Hangzhou City. In a quiet courtyard, the small windows are closed and the room is a little dark.

A candle was lit at the head of the bed. With the faint light, Du Luorui, known as the number one talented woman in the Southern Tang Dynasty, leaned against the head of the bed.

Although the Du family is in dire straits, it is still an elegant bedroom with elegant decorations, with all the curtains and curtains. Chen Shou is right. No matter who loses and who wins, Du Luorui will at least not be a problem. Because she is the prey pursued by all men, the winner outside will be able to possess her in a noble way.

In the warm tent, the lotus embroidery collapsed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

I felt my chest was stuffy, my body was weak and soft, and my spine hurt a little

Luo Rui is only thirteen years old now, because she is too young and has not been included in the palace by Emperor Yuhui.

Although she is young, she has a clear understanding of the world and people. Although her father, Scholar Du Cheng, was the top scholar and married the daughter of his grandfather, who was the prime minister, he did not know the knowledge of the officialdom and was ultimately just a third-rank minister.

Du Cheng was not angry, but he didn't want to give birth to two daughters too outstanding, which became the turning point in his career. Emperor Yuhui was promoted with all his strength, and in just one year, he had already been promoted to the Central Secretariat.

This is the foundation for the Du family to cause trouble. As for the limited level of poetry under the pillow, it is just an introduction.

Thinking of his father, I don’t know how he is in prison now, but I feel a few crystal tears slowly flowing down again. I quickly wiped it, coughed a few times, shook my head and wanted to sleep again.

With a squeak outside, my sister came in with an umbrella, holding a medicine jar in her hand. When she saw her sister lying on the bed, she asked, "Is it better today?"

"Why are you here? It's raining and it's cold. Qing'er is so unreasonable. Before our house collapses, we can't instruct her?"

Du Luoying is more heroic than her sister, but she is not as delicate as her sister in appearance, but she is also a rare beauty.

"I asked Qing'er to go out and explore the wind. Now there are a hundred more Yulin Army in the mansion, and only three people are allowed to go out to buy vegetables a day." Speaking of this, Du Luoying snorted coldly and said, "A group of traitors in the navy are incompetent and want to interfere in the war in Jiangbei. They are beaten to pieces. Instead, they want to come back to their nest. It is really despised."

Du Luorui sighed and said, "It's all my fault. I was caught and hurt my father."

"Hey, without this, they will also look for something else. It's because my father's promotion is too fast and he won't change his mind. I don't know how many people he offended. These pickled villains, if they are in a mess, they will all depend on my father's luck."

Du Luorui was a little haggard, not sure if she was sick or she had too little sleep. The yellow eyes were slightly red with red silk, and she was stunned for a while, "I don't know if his Majesty can hold on and protect his father."

"All the kings under the world are kings, and all the kings and ministers are kings. If even the ministers under them cannot be restrained, they cannot protect their loyalty and good people, and they cannot suppress treacherous people, what is the wise ruler?"

"Shhh... I dare not talk nonsense. Don't ask for trouble for my father again."

Du Luoying knew in her heart that she was a little unspeakable, but she still snorted coldly, poured a bowl of medicine for her sister, and fed her with a spoon.

She glanced at the corner of her eyes to the paper exposed under the pillow and asked curiously: "What is this?"

Du Luorui smiled bitterly and said, "This is the collection of poems in that box."

Du Luoying took it out, looked it through the light, and smiled and said, "It seems like you practiced writing when you were seven or eight years old, but unfortunately you lacked the aura you were from then on."

"Sister, don't make fun of me. I know people by writing. This woman should also be a... kind girl."

Du Luoying stood up, took off her wet clothes, only wore a floor-to-ceiling gauze skirt, and exposed her shoulders and said, "I'm squeezing with you today, the room is too deserted."

Du Luorui twisted her body and wanted her to sleep in a warm place. Her sister held her down and said, "Don't move, that's it."

Du Luoying blew the candle and pulled the curtain on the bed. The two sisters were sleeping on the same bed, covering a brocade quilt. They have been in touch with each other since childhood, and they look at each other more than themselves. They are actually better than each other.

If the two in Chen Shou's mansion saw it, they would definitely ask in surprise: Is there really such a sisterly relationship in the world?

The news of the complete destruction of the Huai Army soon spread across the river, and everyone in the Southern Tang Dynasty already knew about it.

The two Huai Rivers have always been very familiar with each other as the place directly bordering the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Many wealthy merchants and tycoons in the Southern Tang Dynasty even had their own industries in Yangzhou, although they were entrusted to others.

The Huai Army was destroyed so quickly that all the Tang people were worried. Did the royal army of Daqi have the domineering spirit that swept the world back then?

If this is true, would they choose to cross the south?

You should know that although the Yangtze River is dangerous, it is not difficult to transport people to land at the current level of warships.

It is impossible to completely lock the Yangtze River, after all, there is a vast ocean outside the continuous river water.

The one who feared the most was the Southern Tang Navy, who had formed an alliance with the Huai Army and directly became enemies with Chen Shou.

Now they are fighting with Emperor Yuhui. If there are any foreign enemies, then there will be a situation where both sides are not human.

Xu Mu, the spokesperson of the Navy in Hangzhou and the Minister of War of the Southern Tang Dynasty, just received instructions from the Navy headquarters today to stop being aggressive.

Xu Mu has been in the limelight these days, and he is simply a verbal fight in the court. Many officials with higher ranks than him can't raise their heads and dare not retaliate.

He walked out of the War Department's office, got into a carriage, and sighed worriedly.

The carriages were driving on the busiest streets in Hangzhou, and the restaurants and tea shops on both sides were almost full.

For the Tang people, as long as the Qi army did not arrive for a day, they would not be able to give up this wonderful enjoyment.

Picking up a newspaper from the seat, which contained the latest battle report from Lianghuai. The more Xu Mu looked, the deeper his brows frowned.

"Waste! A bunch of waste!"

When the newspapers in Jiangnan were reported to Northern Qi, they were sarcastic and randomly fabricated. They were surprisingly not joking about this matter, and they were very rigorous.

The more this happens, the more they see their fear, and even more so is Xu Mu.

I don't know whether he was calling the Huai Army incompetent or blamed his own timidity, so he threw the divine newspaper and lay in the car with his eyes closed.

Suddenly the car was beaten up, and Xu Mu started cursing before he opened his eyes.

"What's going on when the dog kills me!"

The answer to him was a few sharp arrows. I don’t know how many assassins came up from both sides. I made an appointment and started at the same time.

Xu Mu was hit by four arrows and finally died of excessive bleeding.

As the news spread, Hangzhou City, which was already full of wind and rain, suddenly fell into greater panic.
