Hua Nianrou, who looked tired, was still working at her desk. Since the war expanded, she had to help process a lot more information every day.
Working in the study room could no longer meet her work needs, so she also moved to the City Lord's Mansion to help Lu Yuanhua handle some confidential matters.
After working so hard every day, Hua Nianrou looked very haggard.
But her mood was so exciting that she became busy and full of passion.
Not long ago, the famous generals of the Northern Wei Dynasty, He Lan and Zhang Yue, launched an army to attack Tongguan. Xiao Yue defended the city and had a stalemate with them, but the situation was very unfavorable.
Although Xiao Yue's power has two more strongholds in Qinzhou and Jingzhou, this is a retreat and cannot provide Xiao Yue with any support.
Only Xiao Yue's army fought against the Northern Wei Dynasty. Unless Xiao Yue created another miracle, it was only a matter of time before Tongguan fell.
At that time, Lu Yuanhua had already started preparing to implement the second plan, which was to abandon Tongguan and march westward.
Both the westward advance and the eastward advance used the same strategy, using space tactics to overwhelm the Northern Wei Dynasty.
The core of this strategy was because the Northern Wei emperors were relatively ignorant and incompetent and did not have the ability to control their subordinates. Therefore, they only needed to maintain their vitality. No matter whether they were victorious or defeated, they would not lose.
Lu Yuanhua has already prepared the mobilization. The people of Chang'an can evacuate westward with the army at any time, and Xiao Yue can definitely buy enough time to protect these civilians.
However, at this moment, a big piece of news came.
Before the Emperor of Nanliang was firmly on the throne, he mobilized 50,000 elite troops to launch the Northern Expedition against all objections.
Okay, this is kind of a joke.
There are about 500,000 troops that can be mobilized in the northern and southern borders of Liang, including some logistics personnel and auxiliary personnel. The number of truly capable warriors is about 300,000.
This kind of force is not weak, it can even be said to be stronger than before.
Xiao Zhao's investment in the army has never been small, and this is also the most precious legacy he left to Xiao Se.
Of course, he didn't want to stay.
The battle between countries often does not start easily. Once it starts, it will inevitably involve a large army to charge together.
It is a taboo for military strategists to gradually increase the number of troops.
Lu Yuanhua originally thought that the Emperor of Nanliang was joking with him, 50,000 soldiers and horses to fight the founding of the country?
Are you joking around here?
However, these 50,000 soldiers and horses, led by an unknown ghost-faced general, marched all the way from Eastern Yuzhou to the Northern Wei Dynasty, attacking cities and villages with overwhelming force. In just half a month, they actually reached Sizhou.
Intimidating Luoyang.
You must know that Dongyu Prefecture is an important border between the north and the south. The Northern Wei Dynasty had 200,000 troops guarding it, and the guard Tuoba Shou was also a relatively capable royal general.
He cannot be a mole, he is also very powerful, and his 200,000 troops are all good warriors.
However, in that battle, General Ghost Face won with a quarter of his troops, and even killed the general Tuoba Shou.
Just two words, outrageous!
This battle frightened the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the point of peeing. He Lan Zhang Yue was dispatched with several military orders, and Helan Zhang Yue had to mobilize his troops to return to defense. The siege of Tongguan had just begun, but it was already over.
And Xiao Yue did not disappoint. After noticing Helan Zhangyue's movements, she boldly took the initiative and followed Helan Zhangyue's army all the way, constantly harassing them, intercepting a lot of baggage, and killing countless enemies.
These two groups were not the only ones to receive the good news. Liu Jian, who had been hiding in Yizhou and developing in a low profile, didn't know what was wrong with him. He actually launched an expedition to the north, from Baishui to outside Longxi County, and fought with Xiao Yue's expedition to the west.
The generals moved from the south to the east, forming an outflanking trend against Longxi County.
The effect of gathering this information together is that Lu Yuanhua's strategy is useless again.
He simply doubted his life.
As an ambitious and idealistic scholar, Lu Yuanhua often followed Kong Ming as an example and vowed to become Xiao Yue's Wolong.
After following Xiao Yue, he managed the internal affairs in an orderly manner, and Chang'an prospered under his governance.
But in military strategy, every time he has a plan, there will be good news that ruins his plan.
This is all good news.
Aren’t you happy that you don’t have to move anymore?
Lu Yuanhua wanted to complain, but of course, he was also very happy.
Perhaps in his lifetime, he could really see the grand scene of expelling the Tartars and restoring the Central Plains.
When he saw the three battle reports, Lu Yuanhua couldn't help but burst into tears.
The Northland has been occupied for hundreds of years since Yiguan crossed south, and now there is finally hope of recovery. How could he not be excited?
Equally excited are the Han people living in the north who have been oppressed by the barbarians.
People rushed to tell each other, and the army was also as powerful as a rainbow.
The three armies are three camps, but at this moment, they all have a tacit understanding and are facing the outside world in unison.
Good news comes frequently these days, and Hua Nianrou's daily job is to organize information, summarize needs, and cooperate with publicity.
It's a lot of work, but she doesn't feel tired at all.
But in the dead of night, she couldn't help but think of Lin Yi.
It has been almost a month since Lin Yi and his wives left Chang'an.
Although time flies by without Ji Yi around, sometimes Hua Nianrou feels that it goes by very slowly.
She knew that Ji Yi already had a wife, so she probably wouldn't have any chance.
Even if she were to be Ji Yi's concubine, I'm afraid he wouldn't be willing.
Although she has some beauty, a man as stalwart as Ji Yi would never be fooled by beauty.
"You are like the moon in front of the court, approaching and then looking into the distance. The bright moon is still in the window, but the person here is already confused."
Hua Nianrou looked at the full moon outside the window and couldn't help feeling worried.
Little did she know that outside the study, there were people who were also feeling miserable.
"My stupid brother is probably hopeless."
Gu Tinglan, a melon-eating expert, glanced at Gu Tingxuan, who was independent from the court, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Hua Nianrou looked at the moon by the window, missed Ji Yi, and read poems.
Her stupid brother was watching Hua Nianrou missing Ji Yi downstairs, and heard the poem she recited.
How heartbreaking this is!
It's a pity, she thought about it.
Hua Nianrou doesn't have a deep bond with her brother, but she has a deep marriage with Ji Yi.
We are not together now, but we will meet again in the future.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Is this guy Lin Yi transformed from a peach tree spirit? He is really disgusting with his peach blossoms.
Thinking that she would become a flower on the tree in the future, Gu Tinglan suddenly lost her mood to eat melons.
It's better to bring your brother home. Boys must not be addicted to feelings. They must improve themselves. If you bloom, butterflies will come!
Gu Tinglan was about to lead Gu Tingxuan away when she saw a figure suddenly appear on Hua Nianrou's pavilion.
Gu Tinglan took a closer look, good guy, isn't this Lin Yi?
After not seeing each other for a month, Lin Yi has undergone new changes.
He looked a little ordinary.
He is still so handsome, but he no longer looks sharp.
She felt danger when Ji Yi stood in front of her before, but now she looked like an ordinary person.
Gu Tinglan was shocked. She didn't think that Ji Yi's cultivation had regressed.
On the contrary, he must have made great progress and reached the state of returning to his original nature.
"I don't think I can beat him. Even if this person goes around killing people, he can't possibly practice so fast, right?"
Gu Tinglan really didn't understand what was going on with Lin Yi.
At this time, Ji Yi actually had no need to hide it.
Even if I tell everyone in the world that I can kill people and level up, so what?
No one can stop him anymore.
It's just that there is no need to expose this matter.
It has been half a month since Lin Yi left Tianmu Mountain for hunting.
The income in this half month was not high. He only earned 100,000 years of Taoism. He was not particularly satisfied.
Moreover, those judges have become smarter. After killing them several times, no matter how the Pluto of the Jingtian Sect summons them, they cannot summon a single judge.
In desperation, Ji Yi had no choice but to kill all the Plutos, Pluto candidates, and even the two Celestial Eyes.
As for the secret general altars scattered all over the world, Ji Yi didn't have time to clean them up one by one.
It just wasn't appropriate to leave them alone, so Lin Yi thought of coming to Chang'an to ask Hua Nianrou for help.
The Qinghong Gang is originally a gang force, so they will know more about this aspect.
If they take action, the Jingtian Sect, which has lost all its high-level combat power, is already vulnerable.
After breaking through to the millions of years of Taoism, Lin Yi did not feel any obvious changes, but vaguely felt the barrier between heaven and earth.
There are barriers between the human world and the fairy world, and the same is true between the human world and the underworld.
Moreover, there are places where they can connect with each other.
Lin Yi can find the door by concentrating on the induction.
Maybe if he opens the portal, he can go to another world.
Lin Yi had this conjecture, but did not dare to verify it.
After all, whether it is the fairy world or the underworld, it is not something that the human world can resist. If the door is opened and those immortals and ghosts can come, then he will be cheating.
And going to another world, with his strength, may not be safe.
It's better to hide in the world and be a Shilipo Sword God.
Therefore, the only thing that has been added to the Million Years of Taoism is this useless function, and Ji Yi is not very satisfied.
However, the Taoist practice has actually increased. If I see Master Miaofa again now, I can probably grab him and crush him to death as soon as he raises his hand.
After gaining strength, Lin Yi had the leisure to deal with some things that had been put aside before.
Destroying the Jingtian Sect is one, visiting the disciples is two, and rescuing Hua Nianrou is three.
After solving these matters, it was time for him to go find Fatian Treasure House.
This thing may not be useful to him, but it may be useful to others.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he found Hua Nianrou, he heard her reciting poetry. Fortunately, he asked the little fox to contact Lu Yuanhua, otherwise the jealousy would definitely explode.
Ji Yi had no choice but to pretend not to hear, and showed up after a while.
"Flower girl, long time no see."
Lin Yi suddenly appeared, which startled Hua Nianrou.
When she saw Ji Yi, she thought she was dreaming. Why did he just appear when she was thinking about him?
Rubbing her eyes to make sure that the person was still in front of her, Hua Nianrou felt shy but happy at the same time.
"Master Lin, why are you here?"
"I was passing by Chang'an City for some business, so I stopped by to see you. I see that you look tired. Have you not had a good rest recently?"
Hua Nianrou was still happy, at least Ji Yi would stop by to take a look at her and care about her health.
"There has been too much good news recently. I am so happy that I can't sleep. It's not a big deal."
Ji Yi nodded. Although he was hunting the gods of the underworld, he also heard about things in the human world.
Neither Xiao Se nor Xiao Yue disappointed him, but Liu Jian surprised him.
He had met Liu Jian and felt that he was too thoughtful.
It's not that I'm unkind, but my interests definitely come first.
In such an era, this kind of thinking is not wrong, Lin Yi just doesn't like him.
He didn't expect that after staying in Yizhou for such a long time, he would actually take the initiative to attack. It really made him look high.
Now that the three families are unanimously open to the outside world, the humiliation of the Han people is probably about to end.
If nothing else happens.
Getting back to the subject, Lin Yi could understand Hua Nianrou's mood. She had a blood feud with the Hu people. If she hadn't been so weak, she would have picked up a sword and mounted a horse.
When she has a clerical job, she will definitely not be lazy.
"I can understand why you are so excited, but a healthy body is the key to fighting. You don't want to wait until you see victory, right?"
Hua Nianrou knew that she was wrong, and because she was educated by Ji Yi, she still felt a different kind of joy in her heart, so she naturally would not refute.
"I will take a good rest in the future."
Only then did Lin Yi stop preaching and felt Hua Nianrou's pulse again.
He could directly open his Third Eye and observe everything about Hua Nianrou, but that would be really explicit and inappropriate.
"Your pulse has stabilized a bit, but it's still not a long-term solution. You still have to go to bed early and get up early, and go out more often."
Mr. Lin, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, began to miss his old self. At that time, a drop of blood was the best tonic and the effect was very good.
That won't work now.
The power contained in his blood is too powerful. If someone like Hua Nianrou, who has no cultivation level, takes one sip, he will probably die on the spot.
Now he has no good way to take care of Hua Nianrou's body, so he can only take care of it slowly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When he originally wanted to let Hua Nianrou and Jiang Linglong reconcile the yin and yang to break the curse, he promised Hua Nianrou that he would cure her, and now he naturally cannot break his promise.
There were also a lot of prescriptions for healing. He had killed people to seize treasures before, and he also left some elixirs for Hua Nianrou.
After all these days, she was still so sick.
It's really strange that nothing can be found even if I check my pulse.
Lin Yi was puzzled, so he could only ask her to go to bed early and get up early.
Seeing this, Ah Qi couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
A person with the blood of a true demon will naturally become ill if the blood of humans and demons is incompatible. No matter how many tonics he takes, it will be of no use.
Even if Ji Yi uses extremely yang substances, it can only temporarily relieve the symptoms at most, but cannot cure the disease.
Only by completely giving up her demon blood or human blood can she be completely healed.
But of course she would not tell Ji Yi about such a thing. She had been Ji Yi's spy for so long, and Ji Yi turned around and destroyed the Jingtian Sect without giving her any benefit.
There is hard work without credit, right?
If she hadn't been trapped by her previous oath, she would have wanted to take Hua Nianrou's body. How would she tell Ji Yi the truth now?
"One day, I will break my oath and return to the position of Demon Ancestor. I will repay today's shame a hundredfold!"
Ji Yi didn't know that the little demon maid he took with him had such ambitions. If he knew, he would definitely be very happy.
After all, after taking Ah Qi in, it would be hard to kill her again without a suitable reason.
Little leeks also have emotions.
But if she rebels on her own, then he will have a reason to take action.
At the moment, Lin Yi was puzzled and did not hide it. He just asked tactfully: "Girl Flower, do you usually feel that you are different from ordinary people?"
Lin Yi suddenly asked this question, and Hua Nianrou didn't know the reason. She thought about it carefully and felt that there were actually many things about herself that were different from ordinary people.
She is relatively weak, but she is smarter than ordinary people and can remember things quickly. These are special features, but they are probably not what Ji Yi wants to know.
"If there's anything special about it, it's probably a dream. Every April 14th, I dream about a dark pool. I don't know how deep the pool is, and something seems to be crawling out of it.
It's been like this for all these years, but nothing has happened, and I don't know if it counts."
Hua Nianrou didn't know what it meant, and Lin Yi didn't understand it either.
April 14th is an unlucky number, but what does it mean to dream about a pool?
Could it be that her sick body is related to that dream?
Neither of them had much knowledge, but they didn’t know that after Ah Qi heard this, the whole devil became excited...
"Her dreams can actually communicate with the Demonic Well of the Abyss. My chance is indeed with her..."
