151. Chapter 151
Xiao Qiao paused for a moment, closed the window quickly, and was supported by Wei Yan's palm. She was as quick as ape, and had already entered the window and stopped in front of her.
The moonlight flowed down and fell on the windowsill behind him, drawing a figure outline, but his face was like the back of the moon, hidden in a complete shadow.
Only a pair of eyes were left, with a slight dark light.
A scream of "Ah--" suddenly arose behind him.
Wei Yan took a quick step and took a palm down. Chunniang, who had just woken up and sat up, groaned and fell back.
Wei Yan hit Chunniang in a daze, walked to the candlestick, lit the candlelight, and slowly turned around.
He wore ordinary Chinese clothes in blue, which he hadn't seen for several years. Apart from raising short moustaches, his face was similar to what Xiao Qiao remembered.
It's just that the feeling that comes from head to toe is not much the same.
Xiao Qiao seemed to smell the bloodthirsty breath of a wolf on him.
Seeing his eyes flashing towards him, her heart pounding, her whole body tensed tightly, staring at him with caution, slowly retreating, and protecting the sleeping Philippi behind her.
Wei Yan's eyes swept across the small bed behind her, and his eyes moved slightly.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
He spoke, his voice low.
In the flash of lightning, Xiao Qiao gave up the idea of calling people.
There are only me and Philip in this room, and there is a Chunniang who was knocked unconscious by his clench.
Even if she opened her mouth and called someone up, it would be easy for him to be unfavorable to him or Philip.
She slowly calmed down.
"What do you mean?" she asked directly.
She didn't ask him how he got in.
Although Jia Wei arranged patrols and guards, it was not impossible for Wei Yan to avoid patrols and break into the inner courtyard with his familiarity with the environment of the Wei Mansion to cover the night.
Wei Yan did not make a sound, and two eyes were cast on her again, staring at her, without blinking.
The cool breeze seeped into the window, swaying the lights, swaying the dim candlelight, and his eyes seemed to be unstable.
Stopped on her face for a moment, slowly falling along her neck.
Xiao Qiao was still wearing a thin moon-white shirt that she had just slept with, the neckline was slightly wide open, revealing a jade neck that was smoother than snow.
She turned around, took a light purple garment from the bedside hanger, wrapped it tightly, lowered her head and tied her belt, turned around and faced him again.
"Why should I call you? Brother? Or maybe the Huns gradually rush to slaughter the king?"
Her cold eyes turned to him.
Under the tent of the Shanyu king, in addition to the wise kings on the left and right, there were also six generals on the left and right, forming a hexagonal force.
During the years when Wei Yan went to the Huns, he showed his strength and helped his grandfather, Lao Shanyu conquered the Donghu people who had occupied the Pamir Mountains for many years, killed the Donghu King, and gained all the people and livestock. In this battle, he saved Lao Shanyu, avoided a crossbow that had originally penetrated his chest, and was appreciated by Lao Shanyu. He was named the right general king and led the territory of the Donghu Pingling.
A few months ago, Xiao Qiao went back to the north room. When the servant saw her coming, he did not inform her like outsiders. When Xiao Qiao entered the room, he accidentally heard Mrs. Xu and Mama Zhong talk about Wei Yan at the door, which happened to be the matter.
At that time, Mrs. Xu's tone was both longing and seemed to bring hidden worries.
Wei Yan pulled the corner of his lips slightly, walked slowly towards the small bed, and finally stopped beside the small bed and leaned down slightly.
"Is this your and your second brother's daughter?"
He looked at Philippians who were sleeping soundly.
"It's so beautiful... it looks like you..."
He stared at Philip, said softly, slowly stretching out his hand, as if he wanted to touch Philip's cheek.
"Wei Yan!"
Xiao Qiao suddenly raised a voice.
"You broke into the inner courtyard in the middle of the night, and I won't care about you if you are rude. I know you must have something to do, what do you want?"
Wei Yan's hand stopped, slowly retracted, turned around, and walked towards Xiao Qiao step by step.
Xiao Qiao did not retreat.
Wei Yan finally stopped in front of her, the two were only one arm away.
He seemed to smell a faint fragrance from her near.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
He looked at her steadily, his eyes gradually seemed confused and his expression was strange.
Xiao Qiao sneered: "This is my home, why am I afraid of you? Although you rely on your familiarity and avoided the post set up by Jia Wei and broke here, you just don't forget that the residence of the Lord and the Marquis are here! If I shout, if you can still escape unstoppably, the word Wei can be written in reverse later!"
Wei Yan was silent for a moment, his eyes gradually became clear, and he suddenly said, "What you said is right, I'm here, there is something wrong."
He paused for a moment: "Liu Yan sent an envoy to the king's tent, promising to exchange the Hetao land to attack the south to ease his urgent needs in Langya. The Shanyu may not take his words seriously, but he is old and old. The only regret in his life is that he failed to regain the Hetao that he lost from him. Therefore, he was persuaded. Soon, he would take this opportunity to go south and launch a surprise attack on Yunzhongbai climbing the valley..."
Hetao includes the Huangshui River, Taoshui River, Sangqian River and other rivers. Since ancient times, the water and grass are abundant and fertile land. For hundreds of years, since the rise of the Huns in the north, Hetao has become a coveted place for the Huns.
One of the greatest achievements of the old Shanyu in his life was that when he was in his twenties, he took away Hetao from the Han Dynasty of the Liu family with a thunder and iron-blooded manner and asked the Huns to go south to herd horses and herd sheep for twenty years.
Later Wei Shao's grandfather guarded the north and after several battles, he regained the occupied Hetao. In the past twenty years, although the Shanyu intended to attack Hetao several times, he had been blocked. Even if the iron cavalry stepped on the Eastern Hu of the Western Regions, he was inevitably unhappy.
Xiao Qiao's face changed drastically.
Wei Yan raised his left hand to his face and looked at his little finger wearing a black iron cover.
"Before I left the Wei family, I sweared that I would not kill a Han person for the first day of my grandmother's lifetime. Although I am a despicable and shameless person, I still remember the oath I made. I will not invite a fight during this raid in the south."
His eyes fell on her beautiful face that had lost its blood: "I resigned from the Wei family that day and returned to the Huns, and now I am a member of the Huns. Even if I don't ask for a war, Japan should not report the news. But my grandmother finally has the grace of raising me. Therefore, I will send me a message and make a break with the grace of raising the Wei family. From now on, I will no longer be a Han person. As you said just now, I am the Huns Huns Hu Tukun."
Chunniang fainted from the neck when she was hit on the bed, and gradually woke up and made a few vague sounds.
Wei Yan glanced at Xiao Qiao deeply, turned around and walked quickly towards the window he had just flipped into, and climbed out of the window.
Xiao Qiao returned to Shen'er, chased after him, and said to the figure under the moonlight: "Since you left, my grandmother has been missing you. Since you are here to report the news, why don't you see my grandmother tell her in person?"
Seeing the back of the front pause, he continued to move forward, and then he was a little surprised and disappeared into the night.
Chunniang finally woke up, sat up suddenly, looked around, and saw the lights in the room. Xiao Qiao was in front of the window, looking nothing unusual, relieved, rubbed the back of her neck, which was still painful, and said: "The lady was talking to someone just now? I was just sleeping, and it seemed that I saw a black shadow coming into the room. I was about to shout, but I didn't know... Am I dreaming, or something happened?"
Xiao Qiao turned around, picked up her pen and wrote a letter in a hurry.
After a while, Jia Wei hurried over and said, "The lady suddenly called me, do you have any instructions?"
Xiao Qiao handed the letter to him: "Go to Jinlong Temple quickly to hand it to the old lady! You can't delay it for a moment!"
...
As soon as it was dawn, Mrs. Xu returned from Jinlong Temple.
As soon as he came back, Xiao Qiao immediately followed and told him about the news that Wei Yan came to report last night.
Of course, I skipped the front and only mentioned the content of his report.
Mrs. Xu didn't speak, just closed her eyes and sat down.
A moment later, Lei Yan, who was ordered to stay in Yuyang, hurried to arrive with two detached generals and several deputy generals.
In addition to the border military towns, Wei Shao also left 5,000 garrisons in Yanmen and Fanyang.
Mrs. Xu arranged to dispatch troops and generals. After finishing, she said: "With meteor horses, we can climb the guards of the three places in the valley, and take strict precautions. If the Huns attack, be sure to defend themselves. When the reinforcements arrive, the rest of the military towns will respond to each other. If there is any news, we will report to me immediately!"
Lei Yan was ordered and took people away in a hurry.
After the group left, Mrs. Xu pondered for a moment and suddenly coughed non-stop.
On the side, Zhong Mai hurriedly handed the parison and rubbed her back.
Since Wei Yan and poisoning were released one after another that year, Mrs. Xu's health has been much worse than before.
Xiao Qiao hurriedly poured a cup of warm water, and after Mrs. Xu finished coughing, she handed it over to serve it.
Mrs. Xu took a sip of water, put a cup, waited for her breath to calm down, and smiled at Xiao Qiao and said, "Don't be afraid. I have already sent a message to Shao'er in the morning and will be able to return soon. Although the Huns' Iron Cavalry is coming with great force, I, Wei'er Lang, have experienced many battles and will definitely be able to pass this level!"
Zhong Moe looked solemn.
Xiao Qiao asked: "Grandmother, husband will return as soon as possible, how long will it take?"
Mrs. Xu pondered for a moment: "Travel with elite soldiers and send the news for half a month."
"In other words, for at least twenty days, grandmother, with 100,000 defenders against the 300,000 cavalry of the Huns, plus the remaining military forces of Yanmen and Fan Yang, even if she defended her desperately, it would probably be a tough battle."
Mrs. Xu looked at her with one eye: "Do you have something to say?"
Xiao Qiao knelt in front of her.
"Grandmother, if I borrowed help from the Qiang soldiers in the Huangshui area and arrived here, how many days would it take?"
"At most ten days..." Mrs. Xu suddenly raised her eyes: "What do you mean?"
"Why not go quickly to borrow troops from the Qiang people in Beihe to help? I think that as long as I speak, the leader of the Yuanwang tribe will definitely send troops. The Qiang people are brave and good at fighting, not inferior to the Huns. If they are willing to come to help, even if they cannot defeat the Huns, they will at least help the defenders to resist their husbands' return."
Mrs. Xu actually knew very well that with a defender of more than 100,000, it was indeed difficult to resist the 300,000 cavalry of the Huns and hold on for more than 20 days.
Just do your best to minimize the losses.
She said that to Xiao Qiao just now, mostly to comfort her.
In Mrs. Xu's heart, she had already thought about it. To be safe, she would send her mother and daughter out of Yuyang as soon as possible.
