On the endless prairie, the autumn grass was withered and yellow, swaying in the wind, horses neighing, and the two sides faced off nervously.
Not far away, Jia Fang was leading his troops to come quickly and surrounded them tightly, but no movement was seen.
Jia Fang stared at Concubine Zhuang and said loudly: "People in the carriage, please come down, otherwise I will hurt you with my swordsmanship."
But at this moment, the Jurchen Eight Banners were holding weapons and sitting on the saddle, holding the weapons at their waists and paying close attention to the movements of Han troops and horses in the distance.
Concubine Zhuang was sitting in a spacious and elegant carriage, listening to the conversation of several generals outside the carriage, taking a deep breath and forcing herself to calm down.
She is the daughter-in-law of the Aixinjueluo clan and the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty. Even if she faces a life-or-death crisis, she must remain calm and composed.
She is the mother of a country, and they will never dare to insult her!
"Put down your weapons." Concubine Zhuang, with a faint face, said loudly in the carriage.
Immediately, he moved his plump body and gently opened a bamboo mat curtain hanging on the carriage. As he spoke, he raised his beautiful head and looked calmly into the distance.
The beauty was dignified, with a natural nobility in her movements and movements. She got out of the carriage, stared at the Han cavalry who were surrounding her in the distance, and said: "I, the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty, are here, and you are not allowed to be here."
rash!"
The Han army knights who were slowly approaching gradually showed a worried look in their eyes.
At this moment, Jia Fang drove her horse forward and stared at Concubine Zhuang, but she couldn't help but feel a little surprised on her face.
Concubine Zhuang's crisp voice had a hint of coldness as she said, "Where is the general leading the Han army?"
At this moment, Jia Fang took the reins of a maroon horse under his crotch, drove the horse close, and asked: "I am General Jia Fang, but the opposite is the fake Qing Empress Dowager?"
Concubine Zhuang couldn't help but have a hint of arrogance on her face, and said loudly: "How could our Qing Dynasty ever be a fake Qing Dynasty? We are equal enemies of your Han country, how can you dare to be so presumptuous?"
Jia Fang gave a cold shout, but did not argue with him. He said loudly: "I don't care whether you are a fake or not, so where is Fulin? Come, search the carriage and bring him out."
Concubine Zhuang's crystal-clear jade face changed a little. Under her two willow-leaf slender eyebrows, her clear eyes were faintly sinister, and she scolded: "You must not make any mistakes!"
Jia Fang raised her eyebrows, but ignored it. She waved her hand and said loudly: "Search!"
Immediately, all the knights from the capital camp came forward on horseback and began to surround the carriage with its shaft raised high.
A young man with a ferocious face and burly demeanor opened the hanging curtain and stared at the carriage inside.
At this moment, Concubine Zhuang's jade face, as crystal clear as snow, was suddenly as pale as paper.
The saying that a scholar encounters a soldier cannot be explained clearly.
Concubine Zhuang was clearly at a loss at this moment.
Fulin, who was in the carriage, was so frightened that he shrank back to the inner compartment when he saw the ferocious gaze.
Although he is the king of a country, he is still just a child. When has he ever seen such a battle?
"Pull it out." At this moment, Jia Fang's voice suddenly sounded, like an extremely sharp steel knife, cutting through the void and penetrating all the way into the car, making Fulin instantly hit.
Shivering.
Then, the soldier stretched out an arm, like an eagle catching a chicken, took Fulin's arm, and lifted Liu'er out of the carriage.
"Let him go!"
At this moment, Concubine Zhuang was like an eagle protecting its calf, as if she was about to pounce on the young primary school student.
Jia Fang gave a deep shout, with sharp eyes, looking around, and said in a deep voice: "You are already a prisoner under the command, and you still can't handle yourself like this?"
However, he waved his hand to signal the Han Army Major to stop his rude movements.
While Concubine Zhuang pulled the child over, she raised her beautiful head with green hair like a waterfall. She saw all kinds of anger in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "I want to see the great Han Dynasty Duke Wei."
Jia Fang said in a deep voice: "My prince is now in Shenyang City. You can get on the carriage and follow me back to Shenjing."
Just like that, Concubine Zhuang and her son, who had just gotten off the bus, were driven back into the car again.
In this way, Jia Fang led a group of soldiers and horses, escorted the carriage where Concubine Zhuang was, and rushed towards Shengjing City.

Shengjingcheng
It was in the evening, and the sunset was shining brightly, shining on the city of Shengjing that had just experienced a tragic sword battle, as if it was covered with a layer of golden gauze.
The cool breeze in autumn has brought a bit of chill, blowing through the black tiles on the roof, and a faint "screaming" sound can be heard, and the Han army flag that has just been erected is rustling, making it look desolate and desolate.
Groups of Han soldiers were walking back and forth on the city wall, holding weapons and looking inexplicably wary.
This city has been completely controlled by the Han army.
At this moment, Jia Heng had finished writing a memorandum in his hand, and placed a wool brush in his hand on the Sanfeng pen holder beside him.
The young man's clear eyes flickered dimly, and a look of thought appeared on his face.
At this moment, Chen Xiao was reaching out behind him to squeeze Jia Heng's shoulders, staring at the boy in the python suit, and asked: "Have you finished writing?"
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow I will have someone use a fast horse to deliver the military report to Shenjing."
It is mainly a summary of the war, or it mentions the subsequent governance of Liaodong.
Chen Xiao responded softly and asked: "Shengjing City has been captured, what to do next?"
Jia Heng nodded, his clear eyes flashing fiercely, and he said loudly: "There are thousands of things in the city that are still waiting to be sorted out."
Chen Xiao said: "That Sun Shaozu is now in prison and wants to see you."
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "I'll go see him tomorrow."
As he said that, he reached out to touch Chen Xiaosu's hand on his shoulder, pulled it over, and looked at the face as beautiful as jade. Under the beautiful eyebrows, there seemed to be some hot flames surging in his eyes.
Marching and fighting along the way, sleeping and sleeping in the open air, I did have some thoughts at this moment.
Chen Xiao's face, as beautiful as frost, was also blushing as red as clouds. Under her eyebrows, which were as curved as willow leaves, her beautiful eyes were crystal clear, and she said, "It's not dark yet?"
The couple is already an old married couple.
Jia Heng gently took Chen Xiao's bare hand, hugged the beauty in his arms, and brought her soft lips close to her, his soft breath hitting the beauty's face.
After a long time, the lips parted.
A silk thread that seems to be broken but not broken seems to be crystal clear under the sunlight, and seems to be glowing with a bright and shining luster.
Jia Heng held Chen Xiao in his arms at this moment, feeling the plump and delicate body, reaching into the lapel of his clothes, and gently picking the big snow pears. He felt that the fatigue of several days of battle seemed to be swept away at this moment, and he gathered together
He reached the beauty's ear and whispered: "How is the situation in Beijing now?"
Chen Xiao's face was already red, and his face as white as snow was covered with a slight blush, which seemed to be as red as blood, and under the curved eyebrows, it seemed to be moist with shining waves, and said softly: "Recently
There wasn’t much movement.”
Chen Yuan should be about to take action in Beijing, if he doesn't take any action.
Jia Heng's expression paused slightly, he stared at the beauty and said, "Let's go to the inner room to talk."
In March, I don’t know the taste of meat, but the lingering sound lingers endlessly.
Chen Xiao's beautiful face, flushed as if drunk, and her delicate, straight nose, seemed to snort, and then followed Jia Heng towards the inner compartment.
Obviously during this time, this person was also thinking about something.
At this time, it was already dusk and the lanterns were starting to come on.
next day
At this time, Jia Heng, accompanied by a large number of Jinyi Mansion guards in Feiyu uniforms, first went to inspect the Hubu treasury of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The treasury was locked and surrounded by soldiers and horses to guard it.
The guard of the Jinyi Mansion who was originally guarding came forward with a solemn look on his face, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen the governor in my humble position."
Jia Heng nodded and asked, "How is the situation in the treasury?"
At this time, a man surnamed Hu from the Jinyi Mansion's Experience Department reported: "Captain, this is the reserve book of the treasury. There are 124,500 taels of gold and 130 taels of silver hidden in the treasury.
Ten thousand taels, more than 3,000 hu of pearls, 350,000 bolts of various brocades and silks... Please also ask the governor to take a look."
Because the Jurchens had previously used a large amount of gold and silver to encourage generals to fight to the death, a lot of gold and silver in the treasury was consumed.
Jia Heng reached out to take the book, put it in his hand and started to read it, saying: "These must be filed and kept in a book, and people will be strictly guarded. There must be no missing one, two, or one centimeter!"
Mr. Hu responded and asked: "Captain, do you want to open the warehouse door?"
Jia Heng said: "Open the warehouse door, I will go in and take a look."
Then, with a "squeak" sound, several people quickly opened the warehouse.
Jia Heng made a general inspection tour, mainly counting gold, silver, pearls and other items, and then went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
The Ministry of War Yamen mainly displays some ordnance, bows, crossbows, arrows and other items. In addition, Jia Heng also visited the manufacturing process of the Hongyi cannon in the treasury.
After everything was settled, Jia Heng returned to Prince Rui, which is also the hall where Jia Heng is holding meetings.
At this time, a Jinyi palace guard came quickly and said: "Captain, Sun Shaozu is waiting in the hall of the palace."
Jia Heng looked surprised and entered the hall without saying anything.
At this moment, Sun Shaozu was sitting on a lacquered pear-wood chair, his majestic and rough face full of uneasiness.
At this moment, I heard a sound of footsteps coming from outside. I stared at the young man in the python suit. He quickly got up, raised his hands towards the young man in the python suit and said, "I have met Duke Wei in my humble position."
Jia Heng looked noncommittal, glanced at Sun Shaozu, nodded, and said: "No need to be polite."
While talking, he came to a table in the middle and sat down, saying: "This time Shengjing City was destroyed, you acted as an internal response and adjusted things around. You did a good job."
There is a saying that without the lurking Zhongshan Wolf, the three granaries would not have been burned down.
Sun Shaozu seemed to have a flattering smile on his face and said loudly: "The Duke of Wei is so complimentary. It's just the duty of a junior general to be loyal to the country and perform his duties diligently."
Jia Heng said: "After returning to Beijing this time, I will commend your achievements to the Holy One."
When Sun Shaozu heard this, his face almost tensed up, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
It can be said that after waiting for so long, he had been waiting for something like this.
Sun Shaozu's face became solemn, he quickly raised his hands and said loudly: "Thank you for your support, Lord Wei, for your humble position."
Then, he quickly walked to the hall and sat down.
Jia Heng said: "Do you have any idea of the resumes and attitudes towards the court among the surrendered Han officials?"
Sun Shaozu said: "When I returned to defend my country, I have been friends with them for a long time and have learned a lot about them."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Let Jinyi Mansion inquire later."
Sun Shaozu nodded and sat down.
At this moment, a guard in Jinyi from the outside entered the palace and reported: "Captain, General Jia Fang sent people to send flying pigeons to pass the message, and they have captured the Jurchen false emperor and the Queen Mother."
When Jia Heng heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he asked, "Have you all been arrested?"
The Jinyi palace guard said: "General Jia Fang said that both of them were arrested."
Hearing this, Jia Heng's face also showed a hint of joy, and he said with emotion: "Both of them have gained, it can be said that they have achieved full success."
When Sun Shaozu heard this, he couldn't help but feel envious in his heart.
Previously, if he hadn't wanted to lead the army into the city, he would have been able to lead people to capture this man. With these two skills, how could he be granted the title of Marquis?

Shenjing City, Palace Garden
Since the weather has entered autumn, the vast land of Guanzhong has been covered with continuous autumn rain, and the weather is somewhat gloomy and gloomy. The rainwater slaps on the eaves, and the eaves tiles are wet, which makes it clear and moving.
Emperor Chongping's health was getting worse. At this moment, he was lying beside the warm pavilion at the west window of Kunning Palace. He was holding a handkerchief in his hand, covering his mouth and coughing non-stop.
The mist of dusk rain outside the window is still beating on the window lattice, and a rhythmic "ta-da" sound can be heard, which is shocking and lingers in the ears.
"Your Majesty." At this moment, Empress Song held a cup of tea and said softly: "Your Majesty, this is today's ginseng tea. Your Majesty, please use some."
Emperor Chongping coughed violently a few more times. The coughing sound was almost like coughing out a person's lungs, which sounded quite terrifying.
Emperor Chongping put down the blue-covered book in his hand, looked at Empress Song with clear eyes, and said loudly in a rough and hoarse voice: "Zitong."
"Your Majesty, if you are not feeling well these days, please stop reading and rest more." Empress Song sat down nearby, the spoon in her hand gently shaking the red dates and glutinous rice porridge in the soup bowl.
Emperor Chongping nodded and said: "My body has become increasingly weak recently."
At this moment, the handkerchief was covered with bright red blood, which was dazzling and alluring, making people feel chilled.
Empress Song also saw the bloody handkerchief, her heart skipped a beat, but she didn't dare to look any further.
He could only say with relief: "Your Majesty, take good care of yourself and there is still time to recover."
At this moment, Dai Quan walked quickly and took the handkerchief from Emperor Chongping's hand, then handed him a new one and said: "Your Majesty, this is the handkerchief."
Emperor Chongping took a handkerchief over, his sunken and dark cheeks looked haggard, and then wiped the red blood from the corners of his mouth.
"Your Majesty." Empress Song held the jade bowl, her crystal jade face paused slightly, her soft eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "Have some ginseng tea."
The appearance of His Majesty's dragon body is really heart-wrenching.
Emperor Chongping smiled and said in a hoarse and weak voice: "It's been cold these days, so I'm a bit coughing and out of breath."
When Empress Song saw that Emperor Chongping, who used to be harsh and powerful in the past, was now weak, she felt her nose tingle and there was a trace of worry in her eyes.
After all, they have been married for many years. At this moment, my conscience discovered that it was inevitable that I would feel a lot of guilt in my heart.
At this moment, Emperor Chongping picked up the tea cup and took a sip of ginseng tea. His thin cheeks turned a little rosy and asked: "Zitong, what time is it now?"
"Your Majesty, it's the sixth day of the Lunar New Year." Queen Song was stunned for a moment and said softly.
Emperor Chongping put down the jade bowl and said with emotion: "One autumn rain and one cold."
Empress Song took the jade bowl, handed it over, and said softly: "Your Majesty, please rest for a while."
Emperor Chongping sighed again and asked: "Where is Ziyu in the north? I don't know what's going on?"
Empress Song handed the soup bowl to the maid standing beside her and said softly: "Your Majesty, your son Yu should be still fighting at this moment."
Emperor Chongping said worriedly: "October is about to enter. If there is heavy snow in Liaodong, the war will be difficult to fight."
The empress of Song Dynasty smiled brightly and said softly: "Your Majesty, Ziyu is sitting on the front line, so it shouldn't be delayed until next month."
At this moment, a burst of cheers suddenly came from outside the palace. The sound was so loud that Emperor Chongping in the palace was shocked.
On the streets of Shenjing City, on the wet bluestone street after the rain, you can hear the sound of "da da da" coming from far to near.
Several red-feathered messengers wearing black armor, riding fast horses, galloped from the city gate, shouting almost hoarse: "Great victory, great victory in Liaodong!"
At this time, in the taverns on both sides of Shenjing Xuanwu Street, diners were gathering around a table and drinking drinks, hearing the hustle and bustle on the street.
They all stretched their necks and said in surprise: "What kind of victory?"
"It seems to be the great victory of Liaodong?"
"Didn't we just conquer Jinzhou last month? What great victory can we achieve now?" A porter carrying two bundles of firewood said.
At this moment, the red-feathered messenger wearing black armor held up a newspaper in his hand and shouted loudly: "Great victory, great victory, Duke Wei leads his troops to recapture Shengjing City, and the Jurchens are wiped out!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a white boulder thrown into a calm lake, and it immediately caused huge waves. Immediately, the people in Shenjing City spread the news to tens of thousands, and tens of thousands of people were waiting in the alleys.
Standing on both sides of the street, listening to the hoarse shout of the red-feathered messenger.
Then, the sound of "cracking..." firecrackers suddenly sounded, and the firecrackers hanging on the eaves of the corridor burned and exploded into a ball of scattered firecracker flowers.
At this time, in a restaurant with a plaque of "Taibai Restaurant" hanging, his hair was slightly gray. When the shopkeeper in his sixties heard what the waiter said, he suddenly burst into tears and said: "Liaodong has been pacified. San'er, your enemy
Reported."
It turned out that during the Longzhi period, the shopkeeper's son went on an expedition with the Beijing camp and died on the battlefield in Liaodong.
Not only the shopkeepers of Taibai Restaurant, but also some elderly people in the city were crying and hugging each other.
In the square courtyards, some elderly people, hearing the sound of joy coming from outside, were holding a locust wood token with tears streaming down their faces.
Palace Garden, Kunning Palace——
The deafening sound of firecrackers and cheers outside the palace also spread to the palace garden in an instant.
At this moment, Emperor Chongping's heart was already in his throat, and he felt his heart beating loudly, which was inexplicably more exciting than when he was crowned the great treasure.
Emperor Chongping raised his thin pine eyebrows that looked like dead branches, stared at Dai Quan, and said in a deep voice: "Go and see, what's going on?"
At this moment, Dai Quan also ordered the internal prison officer to go and inquire about the situation, and said: "Your Majesty, wait a moment."
After a while, I saw a young eunuch running into the palace out of breath. He ran all the way to the palace. He stumbled at the threshold of the palace door. He just fell down and got up again.
Then, the young eunuch quickly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Liaodong is a great victory, Shengjing City is destroyed, and the Jurchens are dead!"
At this moment, the young eunuch quickly summarized the good news spread by the outside world.
Under the thin and slack eyebrows of Emperor Chongping, his clear eyes were fierce, as if struck by thunder. His figure trembled a little, his voice trembled a little, and he asked in surprise: "The Jurchens have been destroyed?"
Although I had already expected this day, I still felt a little excited when I heard what the young inmate said.
The young eunuch said: "There is a red-feathered messenger outside reporting victory."
When Emperor Chongping heard this, his originally sunken and thin cheeks turned into two strange flushes, and he murmured: "The Jurchens are destroyed..."
The middle-aged emperor, who was nearly fifty years old, felt a huge sense of happiness hit him at this moment, which almost made Emperor Chongping shake slightly, and his expression was in a trance, and he was extremely excited.
The Empress of Song on the side was not aware of Emperor Chongping's agitated mood, and was also caught in an indescribable excitement.
The little fox has won the war again.
After this battle, there should be no more wars in the world.
The little fox should be back soon, maybe in time for the birth in Xianning.
At this moment, Dai Quan noticed that Emperor Chongping's sunken and thin cheeks were flushed. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted immediately.
"Your Majesty..." Seeing this, Dai Quan's face suddenly changed and he called out urgently.
"Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician..." Empress Song, who had been lost in longing, now realized what she was doing, her face was frightened, and she greeted her urgently.
