On November 11, the lunar calendar, Zhu Gaoxu led his troops to leave Longquanyi to travel south and arrived at Taipingchang that afternoon.
The vanguard and his soldiers had already requisitioned many local houses, and each house was given five houses, which meant that it showed the attitude of the Han Wangjun.After Zhu Gaoxu's main force arrived, he stationed on the spot.
Today, the marching route of the Han Wang Army is along the western foot of the Longquan Mountains, heading south to west; and Huayang County is also southwest of Longquanyi.
So the Han Wangjun walked for a day, and the distance from Huayang County was almost unchanged, and it was still about fifty miles!
There have been many frictions between the two armies...
When the Han Wangjun arrived at Longquan Post yesterday morning, Xue Lujun was already in Huayang County.
Today, until Zhu Gaoxu received the last report from the scout, there was no movement in the official army camp in Huayang County.
From this point of view, Xue Lu did not seem to want to enter Chengdu City. The troops were watching outside the city, and perhaps they had plans to find Zhu Gaoxu to fight in the field.
Xue Lu was waiting in Huayang County, and the two armies were fifty miles apart, a very ambiguous distance.
The Han Wang Army, which has a small number of people, also has nearly 70,000 people. It takes at least one day for a large army of this size to travel fifty miles; if they suddenly approach each other, the road will be almost dark, and there will be no more people and horses.
Therefore, it is difficult for this distance to break out immediately, leaving a considerable buffer time.
But it's already so close, so there's no need to worry about going to war.
When Zhu Gaoxu talked about the relationship between each other, he said that he wanted to be friends first.
Zhu Gaoxu moved in a green tiled house in a wealthy family. There was a yard in front of the house and there were many loquat trees planted around it.But now is not the season to eat loquats, so it is inevitable that there is a bit of a pity.
He was joking, but he was actually a little nervous.The number of enemy troops may be 100,000, and the opponent is right in front of you. It would be strange if you can feel relaxed.
The person who cares about himself the most is often the enemy. Zhu Gaoxu has been thinking about Xue Lu, but he really doesn't know much about it.However, Zhu Gaoxu had dealt with Ji Gang, who was competing with Xue Lu for the female Taoist priest.
Ji Gang has a very bad reputation, and many people say that behind the scenes is a bad person.
But from Zhu Gaoxu's experience of dealing with many times, Ji Gang is not at least a mad dog, but rather is very familiar with the current affairs.
Therefore, in those years Ji Gang was favored, most of the people dealt with were civil and military officials left by Jianwen Dynasty.
Xue Lu is not an old minister of Jianwen, but a hero of Jingnan!
Even if he is not as good as Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, he is still a general who has made great contributions to the late emperor.
Ji Gang almost beat Xue Lu to death just for a female Taoist priest?
The process was vague, but Zhu Gaoxu guessed that Xue Lu might also be very excited, which aroused Ji Gang's great anger. That thing was just an impulse act.
Such a person who even did not give in to the commander of the Jinyiwei, the favorite minister of the late emperor, had no sign of retreating into Chengdu City for stability at this time, would Zhu Gaoxu understand... Xue Lu wanted to work with Zhu Gaoxu head-on?!
Zhu Gaoxu didn't say a word and thought about it for a long time in the yard.
When he came to his senses, he heard a rustling sound.
He followed the sound and saw Miao Jin sitting alone on a bench next to a square table, holding a bowl with his left hand and grinding something in the bowl with his right hand.
He walked into the main hall and saw Miaojin still thinking about grinding things, so he got closer.I saw Miao Jin holding a white thing in his right hand, as if it was a pearl, rubbing against a whetstone.
What is the graffiti of the Miaojin? Zhu Gaoxu asked.
Miaojin didn't stop her hand and looked up and said: Grind pearl powder. While in Longquanyi, I found a local doctor and asked him if he was not easy to fall asleep and what to eat. The doctor talked about several medicinal herbs, the best one was pearl powder. But I can't find pearl powder. Fortunately, there was a small string of pearl chains on my body, so I ground it into pearl powder.
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he felt unprepared and felt as if he had just taken a big sip of hot water, which spread warmly throughout his stomach.
He has indeed had poor sleep these days and often has insomnia. I guess he has thought too much, and once he has more thoughts, his mind will not be able to calm down.
He was stunned for a moment and blurted out: Miaojin, you are so nice to me.
Miao Jin showed a smile, looked up at Zhu Gaoxu and shook his head gently.
Zhu Gaoxu sighed and murmured: I am the prince, and I always say that others are approaching me for glory and wealth. But I thought I didn't give you anything, but instead let Miaojin be imprisoned for a few years in her best years, and asked you to save me...
Miao Jin smiled again and said softly: The prince is a person who is easy to remember others' good things.
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu thought about it. Miao Jin should mean that he had helped her in Peiping.But she didn't mention those things, and Zhu Gaoxu didn't mention them.
Miao Jin said: During the years when I was locked in the palace, not only did I not blame the prince, but I also had to thank you.
Zhu Gaoxu said a little confused: Thank me?
Miao Jin glanced at him, grinding the pearls rustled, while looking a little embarrassed and whispered: Prince, can you tell that the palace is very cold and deserted.How could I come over if I didn’t even have someone to think about for so long?
Zhu Gaoxu looked thoughtful.
Miao Jin's face turned a little red, and her voice became as soft as a mosquito flapping its wings. However, when I thought about seeing Gao Xu, maybe I would see Gao Xu soon, my heart felt like the spring sunshine was shining in. With hope, my mood improved...
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, his eyes became hotter.At the same time, I felt the afterglow of winter shining in from outside the door, and the house was facing east and west.
There are indeed so many beautiful things in this world, like the setting sun in winter.
He also felt that the living people close to him were very nice to him.
If you fail to fight for power and profit, and you will cause everyone to go to hell, you will probably die with your eyes open and your resentment will never be at peace forever!
Zhu Gaoxu was clumsy in his words for a while and it was difficult to express his enthusiasm accurately, so he had to swear: I will treat you well in the future, and I will treat you well.
Why does this sentence sound so easy?Maybe because he had no choice but to confess, he said too many times.
Miao Jin said a um, and her beautiful eyes brushed across Zhu Gaoxu's face, and she continued to bury her head and grind the pearl powder.
Zhu Gaoxu stood there blankly, and at this time he thought of another woman who saved his life, Ma Enhui.
She was locked in Fengyang, which was even quieter than the palace, and her family was dead. Now it was as Miao Jin said that there was no situation for even a person who could think about it!
...I don’t know if it’s the psychological effect or the pearl powder is really effective in treating insomnia. Zhu Gaoxu slept very sweetly that night and didn’t even have a dream.
