Chapter 3747 The good concubine Xu
Concubine Xu Xian blinked her clear eyes and stared at Princess Changle curiously, as if she wanted to get feedback from Princess Changle after she praised Fang Jun.
In the Sui and Tang dynasties, the political power that dominated the world all came from the Guanlong clan, and Guanlong clan was traced back to their origins and they were all from the Hu people. The heroic and unrestrained style of the Hu people in the grassland was in their blood. After running the country, it was inevitable to be infected from the top down. Such an eclectic and open atmosphere.
There were constant secrets in the palaces of the two dynasties, and there were constant affairs between the royal family and the noble families. The ethics that the Han family paid great attention to were often not taken seriously, and the atmosphere of the entire society was affected. It can be seen that women can show themselves in public and their status rises. A spot.
It is precisely this kind of social atmosphere that created the only queen in Chinese history. Otherwise, if there were so many people in the past dynasties who were as powerful as Wu Zetian in palace scheming, why would there be no second queen?
Therefore, Concubine Xu Xian did not find it unacceptable for the scandal between Princess Changle and Fang Jun that had already spread all over the world.
Moreover, Princess Changle has not yet remarried, so there is no negative criticism of "not abiding by women's ethics". As for Fang Jun, there is no way to criticize him. A man has three wives and four concubines, and several confidants are also romantically involved. For an upright man like Fang Jun, it would only be normal for women to flock to him.
It is an eternal truth that pink and pink match heroes. Although Concubine Xu Xian is over 10 years old, she was born in the Xu family of the Great Wall since she was a child. She is a lady from a famous family. She is innocent and untainted by the worldly world. After entering the palace, His Majesty Li Er was very She has a high doting status and still maintains the romantic heart of her girlhood. She is naturally very interested in heroes like Fang Jun...
……
Princess Changle was a little unable to resist Concubine Xu Xian's scorching gaze. Her pretty face, as white as jade, was slightly rosy. She slandered the stick in her heart, deeply hating that she could even capture her father's concubine as a "supporter", and said calmly. : "The so-called 'time' "Heroes are created by momentum," that's all. When the situation is urgent and the country is in danger, there will always be heroes who will step forward to help the building that is about to collapse and turn the tide. Even if there is no Duke of Yue, there must be other outstanding people. This is It’s the law of heaven.”
"Haha..."
It was Princess Changle who was sneering just now, but this time it was Concubine Xu Xian who was sneering.
The beautiful face of this talented girl from the south of the Yangtze River and the beloved concubine of the emperor showed a playful smile like a girl, and she deliberately lengthened her voice: "Your Highness is right, these men are basically the same, even if there is no Yue Kingdom Sir, there must be other men who will capture the heart of His Highness..."
"Oh, what crazy things did the empress say!"
Princess Changle's pretty face flushed, her face turned red, and she spat.
Previously, Wei Nizi had mentioned the matter between her and Fang Jun in a non-verbal manner. She was relatively calm and calm, but now that she was being teased by her usually gentle and dignified father and concubine, she felt her face was burning and she was overwhelmed. .
Princess Yuzhang on the side also covered her lips and smiled softly.
Concubine Xu Xian held Princess Changle's slender hand with a bright smile and a gentle tone: "The world always pities you and is jealous of you. There are rumors and slanderous remarks, so you don't need to worry about him. Life is our own, as long as we live comfortably, don't worry about him. How are others? Said? Women are weak, and it is increasingly difficult to be born in this world. As long as we find the hero in our hearts, we will follow him wholeheartedly. If we live in different places, we will die in the same cave. If you don't believe me, it's like the sun!"
The tone is gentle, but every word is sonorous and comes from the heart.
Princess Changle felt warm in her heart and held her back with her hand...
Suddenly there was a burst of noise outside the door. It was not loud at first, but gradually became one, covering up the sound of raindrops dripping on the eaves.
Princess Changle frowned and asked in a loud voice: "What happened outside?"
At the moment, there is a battle outside the city, and the situation is tense. The difference between the winner and the loser is like an abyss, and the slightest movement will tighten the heartstrings.
The door opened, and the maid walked in from the outside with a look of joy on her round face, and said in a brisk tone: "Your Majesty, there are scouts from the Xuanwu Gate who came in to report the military situation to His Majesty the Crown Prince... They said it was Vietnam. The Duke won a great victory, first defeated the Yuwenlong tribe, and then defended the Daming Palace, defeating the eldest son Jiaqing, and killing the enemy. Naturally, the imperial guards and inner servants outside were overjoyed and spread the news everywhere. "
< br>
"Seriously?"
Princess Yuzhang exclaimed, she couldn't hold back her ecstasy, she put her hands on her hands and laughed loudly: "The Duke of Yue is indeed an unrivaled hero. How many people in the past and present have done this great job of protecting the country? Hehe, no wonder, sister, you are willing to commit yourself to him. , I also like her very much, and I will definitely invite him to toast him with a few glasses of wine one day.”
Princess Changle: "..."
I'm complaining in my mind: Looking at your posture, I'm afraid you just want to toast? It’s probably better to recommend one’s own pillow mat... But it doesn’t matter, that guy likes his aunt and sister-in-law the most, the more the merrier...
Concubine Xu Xian held Princess Changle's hand with one hand and supported her towering chest with the other. She took a long breath and said with a smile: "Your Highness Yuzhang's words are the same as mine. This victory is enough to reverse the situation. Even if the rebels will not If we are completely defeated, we will definitely have to restart peace talks, or maybe just stop the war.”
Although she is a concubine in the palace, Concubine Xu Xian is a talented woman with a far-reaching reputation. She is also involved in military and military strategies. She naturally knows the current situation well and clearly understands what this great victory means.
Immediately, he sighed deeply and said sadly: "It's a pity that Your Majesty is still in the army and doesn't know about the personnel. Otherwise, how would those rebellious officials and traitors dare to do such treacherous and unethical things, causing great harm to Guanzhong and causing disaster to the people? I don't know when Your Majesty will be able to do it again." Back to the palace..."
Feeling her sincere longing and admiration, Princess Changle's heart ached, and she held her delicate hand even more tightly, silently comforting her.
Although there is still news that her father is in coma until now, no matter what the truth she feels from the prince or Fang Jun, it probably means that her father is in danger... With Concubine Xu Xian's love and respect for her father, if I really can't bear to say what happened, but I don't know how I will live alone in this deep palace for the rest of my life?
As the saying goes, "Love lasts forever", I'm afraid it will be difficult...
……
Since the two armies started marching northward from Guanlong, the atmosphere inside the Neizhongmen became tense and turbulent.
The reason why Donggong has been able to sustain itself under huge pressure after the sudden uprising in Guanlong until now is that, on the one hand, Li Jing was in charge of the Taiji Palace and commanded the Sixth Army of Donggong to kill the enemy bravely and fight to the death, and more importantly, Fang Jun came from the Western Regions. The rapid return of aid not only opened up the channel between the East Palace and the counties in Longxi and Hexi, allowing troops and horse supplies to be continuously transported into the palace, but also stationed the Youtun Guard Camp and guarded the Xuanwu Gate, making it difficult for the Guanlong Army to cross the Leichi. .
Once the Xuanwu Gate falls and the Youtun Guards are defeated, the back door of the East Palace will be open without cover. At that time, the Guanlong army will attack from both sides. Even if Li Jing's military god is alive, he will not be able to escape defeat.
Therefore, in the current situation, it is not inappropriate to regard Xuanwu Gate as the "gateway of life and death" in the East Palace.
The ultimate goal of the rebels mobilizing the main force in two groups is to contain Youtunwei on one side, and directly break through Youtunwei's defense line on Chang'an City with the other group, and then approach Xuanwumen.
This is not a subtle tactic, anyone with some military talent can see it, but Guan Long relied on his abundant military advantage to divide it into two and use a two-pronged approach to openly bully the few guards in Youtun. This can be regarded as an upright conspiracy.
Conspiracy is the most difficult to guard against, because everything is on the surface, there is no opportunity for opportunism, and you can only fight for strength.
As for the officials and guards of the East Palace, they will naturally ascend to heaven after the prince defeats the rebels Kuang Fu Chao Gang. However, once the prince is defeated and the East Palace falls, all of their supporters will naturally suffer...
Naturally, he is always paying attention to the war outside the city.
In the early morning, General Gao Kan of the Youtun Guards led the main force and joined forces with the Tubo Huqi to fight against the Yuwenlong tribe and defeated them. When the news came back to Neizhongmen, although the crowd was excited and jubilant, they all restrained themselves, because if In addition, the Changsun Jiaqing tribe should not be used low on the road, allowing it to occupy the Daming Palace and even the entire Longshou Plain. With all the geographical advantages in its hands, it would only be a matter of time before the Xuanwu Gate fell.
And as the eldest grandson Jiaqing was kidnapped by Wuhua Da and escorted into Xuanwu Gate, the news that the Youtun Guards stood firm at Yamato Gate and severely damaged the Guanlong army outside Yamato Gate spread rapidly like wings. Everyone who heard it couldn't help but feel happy and could no longer hide it. The ecstasy in my heart makes me want to shout "Long live the Duke of Yue"...
In short, at this moment, in the inner gate, the gloom of the past depression was washed away by the pattering spring rain, and everyone was filled with joy. The news spread to the Tai Chi Palace. After hearing the news, the soldiers of the Sixth Army in the East Palace raised their arms and shouted on the battlefield, and their morale skyrocketed.
In contrast, the Guanlong army, which also received news of their defeat, was naturally dejected and demoralized...
After this battle, the advantage of Guanlong's army was almost gone. (End of chapter)
