Early in the morning, before dawn, your Majesty had already gotten up and was packing Qin Liang's personal belongings, changing clothes, etc. in the bedroom. Xuan Ji was busy nearby, helping Qin Liang put on two layers of armor.
The inside is chain mail, and the place punctured by Li Feng has been repaired. The outside is military black chainmail.
In the past, Qin Liang only went to the arsenal to pick up armor at short notice, but now he can keep one or two pieces of armor at home for later use. The outer layer of armor has been modified according to his body shape and has a waist-cinching area, so that all the weight does not have to rest on his shoulders.
It is more comfortable to wear.
It was still dark outside the door, it was very quiet at dawn, and almost no sound could be heard.
In Qin Liang's impression, every time he parted with Wang Lingjun and Xuanji, it was like a dark hour. But now Xuanji doesn't have to count the time and leave before dawn. She can always stay with Qin Lianglingjun.
Until Qin Liang went out.
Wang Lingjun looked a little sad and worried when he saw the armor on Qin Liang's body and the sword hanging on his baggage, "You are going into battle, I wish I could accompany you."
Qin Liang pretended to be relaxed and said: "I never go to the front to fight. I'm still wearing two layers of armor. It's okay."
Ling Jun suddenly asked: "In the attack on Dongguan last year, if my grandfather had asked you to lead the troops south instead of attacking Jiangling, maybe we wouldn't have to face the current situation?"
Qin Liang thought for a moment. No one could be sure of the good or bad of something that didn't happen. But if he were allowed to go, things would probably be a little different.
Although your daughter is the daughter of the Wang family, she is already married. It is unlikely that a woman will influence the family's decision-making.
Qin Liang looked at Lingjun and muttered: "It's useless to look into things that have happened in the past. Some things are human nature, there is no need to blame anyone. Your Majesty is just a woman, she is deep in the house, and she has nothing to do with you.
do not think too much about it."
Lingjun nodded silently. Qin Liang reached out and held her delicate hand.
I saw Lingjun sitting on the couch with her feet down. After giving birth to the child, her waist returned to its original slenderness and flexibility. She no longer wore loose clothes, but wore a deep-cut dress connected to the skirt, and her waist-to-hip ratio was correct.
It's very beautiful. When sitting, the hips and waist form beautiful undulating lines.
Qin Liang took note of her figure and thought that when he came back from the north, his confinement period would be over long ago and he would be able to get close to her again.
He once again remembered his previous wish, to be content with just the two of them every day without thinking about anything.
Qin Liang couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty and my aunt are waiting at home. When I defeat Guanqiu Jian in one fell swoop, I will come back to stay with you."
Ling Jun said hurriedly: "You don't have to worry about us, just do your own thing. After a while, my aunt and I can go back to the Wang family's residence to live for a while."
Xuan Ji's voice said: "Zhong Ming must be careful."
Qin Liang nodded and said a few words of relief. At this time, the sky outside had turned pale. He picked up his baggage and said goodbye to his lord. Xuanji sent him out, and the two of them walked along the corridor toward the gatehouse.
I don’t know if confinement is useful, but most people believe that Qin Liang also told Lingjun not to go out.
Only Qin Liang and Xuan Ji were walking together in the corridor. Xuan Ji lowered her phoenix eyes and looked a little sad. Qin Liang said as he walked: "A man must do something serious in this world to make a living. It is my job to lead the army.
As for the internal affairs, I will stay at home and take good care of you."
"Yeah." Xuan Ji responded, "When will Zhong Ming come back?"
Qin Liang thought for a while and said: "It will take more than two months."
Xuan Ji said softly: "It was already summer then."
The two walked slowly to the gatehouse side by side. Qin Liang stood still, turned around and said, "There is a long history in the front hall, Fu Gu. The generals are waiting for me. I don't need to send you off anymore, just come here."
Xuan Ji nodded in response and stopped. Qin Liang hugged her, and she immediately raised her arms and hugged Qin Liang's waist forcefully.
The maid who was following behind saw this and immediately turned her head away.
Only then did Qin Liang realize that he didn't need to wear armor just now. Now he would hug Xuanji through two layers of armor and could not feel her body temperature. However, he could still feel that Xuanji's body was very soft, especially Qin Liang's chest.
The location below the nail.
Qin Liang's expedition this time, at least in appearance, was completely inferior to Wang Ling's expedition last autumn.
Perhaps because Wang Ling was fighting abroad last year and Qin Liang was "garrisoning" at home, Emperor Cao Fang was unwilling to leave the palace to see him off. Although Cao Fang was not personally in charge, he was the emperor after all. What he didn't want to do was also difficult for others.
It's hard to force him. There's no need to force this kind of thing.
For example, the peaceful military parade at that time was mainly about etiquette and performance, and had no practical effect. After the military parade, many people did not leave the city at all, but returned to the military camp and waited for a few days.
Early this morning, many colleagues and friends, as well as Zhang Huan and others from the palace, escorted Qin Liang's men all the way to Jianchun Gate. The scene was very lively. However, there was no emperor to see them off in person, and the etiquette standards were indeed more than a little low.
Qin Liang even suspected that Cao Fang's refusal to give face was purely because he was dissatisfied with the conquest of Guanqiu Jian! Maybe Empress Dowager Guo guessed that Cao Fang's secret envoy had contacted Guanqiu Jian, and it might be true.
The idea of farming is just a rhetoric. After all, Guanqiu Jian has not yet rebelled, so there is no way to suppress the rebellion. At this time, the news can no longer be hidden from the world.
Because the cavalry unit led by Wen Qin took the Mengjinguan Ferry and crossed the Yellow River directly, obviously heading north.
Mengjinguan is located in the north of Mang Mountain, close to the river. Crossing the river is Hanoi County. That is one of the troops, and Qin Liang's army is also divided into several groups. They first go to Gaoguan to the east, and then choose ferries to cross the river.
People from all walks of life must go separately first, and then join together when they get close to Youzhou.
Qin Liang, with tens of thousands of cavalry, had just arrived at the crossing of the river. Before all the army had passed the pontoon bridge, he crossed the river first. At this moment, Du Yu, who was riding a horse, suddenly found the Chinese army.
Only a few horses came looking at the big flag. Qin Liang also reined in his mount and watched the people coming. Du Yu walked up from the side of the road, dismounted and bowed to him. Without even exchanging greetings, he said directly: "Guanqiu Jian rebelled!"
Qin Liang blurted out: "He is indeed a traitor, and he has already had his rebellious intentions."
He had already expected it, so when he suddenly heard the news, he was not shocked, but a little surprised. Guanqiu Jian was really decisive in taking action!
When Du Yu introduced the people around him, Qin Liang knew that among the people traveling with Du Yu, there was Cheng Xi! Qin Liang had never met Cheng Xi, so he didn't know him without introduction. However, when Qin Liang was in Luoyang, he naturally understood
The situation of generals in various places.
Cheng Xi didn't bring anything with him, and he ran away directly? With such a high official position, he definitely didn't need to listen to Du Yu's opinion when doing things. Qin Liang cursed secretly, and suddenly thought of Zhuge Dan.
