Gong Dongning is the coach, there should be no danger with him by his side, right?

Eleven Niang let out a long sigh of relief and paid more attention to the battle ahead.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the Ganzhou battle report stated that Gong Dongning wiped out more than 10,000 enemies and trained new recruits with the help of captured war horses. Three thousand knights went straight to Datong with lightning speed, killing 2,000 enemies and another 20,000 Tartars.

The army fled to Jiayuguan to relieve Ouyang Ming's difficulties. In the middle of Wudan, another good news came. Gong Dongning left Sichuan Dusi soldiers and horses to guard Ganzhou. He personally led Guizhou Dusi soldiers and horses to Datong and surrounded and suppressed more than 20,000 Dazi people.

.

Xu Lingyi was overjoyed: he left Xuantong and went to Datong, cutting off Dazi's retreat, and then joined Ouyang Ming's troops to attack Xuantong, not only regaining the lost territory, but also relieving the danger of Yanjing. Then he shouted the lanterns and passed the sign, I want to

Entering the palace, the voice was loud and cheerful.

He hasn't spoken like this for a long time.

Eleven Niang also smiled: Is there a high chance of winning this war?

Xu Lingyi nodded, sat by the bed and said softly to her: So if I want to enter the palace, I have to convince the emperor to let Gong Dongning command the three armies. Otherwise, with one army and two commanders, something will happen.

In this case, the emperor should agree to Xu Lingyi's petition.

Eleven Niang suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.

Xu Lingyi gently brushed the few strands of black hair hanging by her ears behind her ears, and said gently: The weather is very good today, would you like to sit in the back garden?

She has been feeling uncomfortable since that day.

He knew that she was suffering from a mental illness, and he didn't ask a doctor. She would sleep when she wanted to sleep, and when she didn't want to sleep, he would let her do needlework or read a book. Everything went according to her wishes. Despite this, she still

He is getting pale day by day.

Maybe she was too depressed before, but now her mood suddenly became cheerful and she actually felt a little tired. Eleven Niang leaned on the big pillow: I want to sleep for a while. She feels lazy and lacks energy.

Xu Lingyi looked at her almost transparent face, his eyes full of love and pity: Then let's sleep for a while. The matters at home include Mrs. Jiang and Yingniang. He helped her tuck in the quilt and couldn't help but comfort her: Gong Dongningxin

As mentioned above, Brother Jin is very smart. He can learn things in a short time and master them in a short time. He likes it very much. Now he asks Brother Jin to help him organize documents. He is afraid that she will not know how powerful it is. He also explained, Brother Jin

What you are doing now is like a cabinet bachelor sorting out the official documents of each department and guard in the army and giving them to Gong Dongning for instructions, and then forwarding the official documents instructed by Gong Dongning to each department and guard. It seems trivial, but it can understand the military.

He can learn a lot about big things and small things, which will be of great help to him in the future. He also said that since Da Zi succeeded this time, the northwest will not be peaceful in the next few years. After the war, Gong Dongning will probably be appointed to the military department

With the title of Minister, he was appointed as the Governor of the Youjun Governor's Mansion to calm the northwest. He also had this idea, and wanted to keep Brother Jin by his side to train him for a few years, and then slowly let him go on his own.

The implication is that Brother Jin will not go to the battlefield this time, nor will he compete for military glory. There will be many opportunities in the future.

Lord Gong was extremely considerate. Eleven Niang felt a little more comfortable, and her eyebrows became a little brighter.

Xu Lingyi looked at it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his voice became softer and softer: "Then take a nap, get up at noon, and let's have lunch together, okay?"

Eleven Niang sighed, turned over and fell asleep.

Xu Lingyi sat quietly for a while, then quietly got up and went to the study.

Eleven Niang fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up, she found that the sun had turned westward and it was already past lunch time.

Why didn't you wake me up? She asked Leng Xiang, who was dressing her.

The Marquis was hesitating whether to call you, but a servant came from the palace and asked the Marquis to enter the palace immediately. The little maid came in with a copper basin, and Lengxiang put a big handkerchief around Eleven Niang's chest to help her.

If you have taken off your sleeves, Lord Marquis will ask the slaves to stop disturbing you.

Eleven Niang washed her face and said, "Then the Marquis didn't have lunch either."

Yes, Lengxiang said, bringing in the bird's nest porridge with a smile.

Or maybe you have been lying down for a long time and your body is still a little soft.

Eleven Niang ate the bird's nest porridge and snuggled into the bed again: Let the kitchen prepare it, and the meal will be served as soon as the Marquis comes back.

He left with a smile.

After a while, Xu Lingyi came back from the palace. He sat next to Eleven Niang without changing his clothes. He was still sleeping. Did he have lunch?

After using it, Eleven Niang smiled and said, I heard that the Marquis entered the palace without having time to have lunch. He must be very hungry. You go and change clothes quickly. I will let the little maids pass the meal. Xu Lingyi saw that she was in good spirits.

, smiled, turned around and went to the clean room.

Eleven Niang was secretly surprised.

Why does Xu Lingyi's smile look a little forced? Could it be that the entry into the palace did not go smoothly?

Her heart became tense again.

After Xu Lingyi finished his meal, he said softly: What did the emperor say about Gong Dongning?

Xu Lingyi was stunned.

Eleven Niang said: Although I will be worried, Mr. Hou always sticks to his word. If you tell me, it will prevent me from hearing some gossip from other places and becoming even more frightened.

This is the general's army

Xu Lingyi smiled helplessly and had to admit that what she said made sense.

The emperor left 10,000 troops from Dengzhou Weininghaiwei and Jinanwei Pingshanwei from Shandong Dusi to Ouyang Ming. The rest of the troops were all under the command of Gong Dongning. Eleven Niang was stunned and soon understood: the emperor wanted Ouyang Ming to be punished and meritorious service.

Two-thirds of the 400,000-strong army was lost. Xu Lingyi said solemnly that Ouyang Ming could only avoid the death penalty if he achieved military merit.

It is only possible for the emperor to protect you like this. Eleven Niang felt depressed and suddenly thought of Fan Weigang: Then Master Fan

Xu Lingyi's eyes dimmed, and he said after a while: If he lived and died with Xuantong, he could just forget about it. Now he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Eleven Niang heard something in her heart: Mr. Hou, do you know the whereabouts of Fan Weigang?

Xu Lingyi was silent for a moment and whispered: He committed suicide.

Eleven Niang took a breath of air, and after a while she asked suspiciously: Why didn't you hear the news?

Xu Lingyi's voice became even lower: He had a personal entourage come to see me and asked me to help him plead with the emperor, hoping that he would not blame his family.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel disappointed: once the emperor, once the ministers, if it were the late emperor, maybe he would also have the opportunity to lead 10,000 troops, and have a chance to atone for his sins.

Xu Lingyi also expressed some emotion: So sometimes I think, either stay aside and don't get involved in the temple disputes; or I have the ability to turn my hands into clouds and rain, and I can survive many dynasties.

Seeing him caring about the country and the people, Eleven Niang couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled: How many dynasties has the Marquis gone through?

Seeing that she was in a rare good mood, Xu Lingyi of the Three Dynasties made her happy. His tone seemed a bit flamboyant. From Jianwu to Yonghe to Xining, I can be considered a veteran of the Three Dynasties.

Eleven Niang looked at his black hair and couldn't help laughing.

Xu Lingyi took the opportunity to pull her over: Get up, have something to eat and I'll go say hello to your mother.

Yes, Eleven Niang responded, lying on his shoulder and laughing.

His body was as soft as if there were no bones, and his whole person became gentle, different from the indifference of the past.

Xu Lingyi smiled and kissed her cheek, carried her to the big kang near the window, and helped her put on her shoes.

This is the first time.

Eleven Niang was a little embarrassed: I will do it myself

Xu Lingyi just looked at her with a smile: kicking her feet

There were the footsteps of the little maid outside: Lord Marquis, Madam, dinner is here

Eleven Niang hurriedly put on her shoes and glanced sideways at Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi laughed on the side.

The atmosphere in the room became warm.

The maids, daughters-in-law, and mothers-in-law all breathed a sigh of relief.

Lengxiang even repaid Amber: Madam and the Marquis have reconciled.

Amber's face turned cold: When did the Madam and the Marquis become angry? The Madam is only worried about the Sixth Young Master when she feels unwell. Don't talk nonsense.

Lengxiang hurriedly lowered her head: I know my mistake. I will never dare to do it again.

Amber hummed with satisfaction, but looked towards the main room, and saw Eleven Niang wearing a lake green mausoleum, a goose-yellow burnt cloth armor, red gold and ruby ​​earrings hanging from her ears, talking softly.

Then he walked out side by side with Xu Lingyi.

There are days when Eleven Niang is not in the mood to dress up. It looks like the weather has cleared up after the rain.

Amber unconsciously smiled.

Mrs. Tai was also very happy to see Eleven Niang: her face looked much better.

Eleven Niang smiled and helped Madam refill her cup of tea.

It’s good that your body and bones are well. Madam Tai did not drink tea, but picked cherries from the crystal plate to eat. You are not feeling well, and we did not have a good Dragon Boat Festival. Madam Tai said to the second lady, let’s go boating at Liufangwu tomorrow. I will also go boating this year.

I have never rowed a boat before, so I feel like a child.

The wife was no longer like before. When she went boating, she had to have Kong Wu's mother-in-law by her side to take care of her.

The second lady looked at Eleven Niang as if asking for advice: How about we go boating tomorrow?

Okay, okay. Before the Eleventh Mother could speak, the Fifth Madam had already smiled and said, "Everyone has been feeling nervous and depressed these days. While the weather is fine, let's have a lively life."

Eleven Niang felt that the weather was too hot, but everyone wanted to go, so she naturally accepted it with a smile and asked Mrs. Jiang to arrange the boating. On that day, she sat in the pavilion waving a round fan to enjoy the cool air, watching the second and fifth ladies Ying.

Brother Niangxian, brother Cheng, brother Ting, brother Zhuang, were rowing in Biman Lake with a smile.
