Amazing talent through time travel

Chapter 15

The moon is full and short, and the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms and withers. In a blink of an eye, autumn is far away.

Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed.

"It's snowing." Qinglilili stretched out her hand, and the snowflakes fluttered and fell into Qingli's hands, but turned into snow water in an instant. There were ice hangings on the eaves and iceflakes hanging from the trees, the whole world Wrapped in plain silver, Qingli stood by the window and chanted, "Thousands of peaks and stones, thousands of jade plants, ten thousand pine trees and ten thousand clouds."

Yucai walked into the room, took off her cloak, shook off the snowflakes on it, hung the cloak on the shelf in the corner of the room, gasped, and stomped her feet again, "It's really freezing to death in this weather." Walking into the house, seeing Qingli standing by the window, catching the snowflakes, he hurriedly strode over, pulled Qingli into the house and sat down by the fireplace, complaining, "Oh, my little ancestor, you said What would you do if you caught a cold?"

"How could it be?" Qingli said with a smile, "how could it be so easy to catch wind and cold."

"It won't be too late when it gets infected!" Yucai said angrily, "Master really doesn't care about his body."

Qingli had no way to refute, but let Yucai stuff a delicate sleeve stove into his hand, and listened to Yucai nagging him to keep warm.

"Master," Liu Guang walked in quickly, before he had time to shake off the snowflakes on his body, "Ah Fu who is next to the master is here, and he told you to go to the study now, the master is waiting for you."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Qingli put down the book in his hand.Yucai walked over to Qingqing and put on a silver-white cotton cloak embroidered with green bamboo at the hem. Thick rabbit fur rolled around the collar of the cloak, making her look even more clear and delicate, with a face like a crown jade.

Liu Guang held up an umbrella, followed Qingli, and walked out of the house. Ah Fu was still waiting under the eaves. Qingli smiled gently, "Thanks for your hard work, Ah Fu," then turned to Liu Guang and said, "Sister Liu Guang, Go and get an umbrella for Ah Fu, I'll go there by myself, it's cold, you don't have to follow."

Liu Guang's heart warmed up, "No need, young master, you go first, Ah Fu and I will rush over together later."

"Thank you, master." Ah Fu bowed his waist and smiled shyly. The young master is really the gentlest person in the house, and he is gentle and considerate to everyone.

"Well, you're welcome, then come back later." Qingli accepted Ah Fu's thanks, and did not reject Liu Guang's proposal.

After receiving the umbrella from Liu Guang, Qingli strolled into the snow.

I don't know if Tingxia is going down now, but I suspect that the forest flowers bloomed last night.

……

study

Qingli put away her umbrella and walked into the study, "Father, are you looking for me?" Qingli said.

Yan Xiang raised his head, "You're here," he said and left his seat, walked to a small table beside him to sit down, and signaled Qingli to sit down too.

"A Li, is there any confusion recently?" Yan Xiang picked up the tea.

"No."

"That's very good. It's important to prepare well for the general and imperial examinations after the spring." After a pause, he continued, "The emperor called me into the palace last night." Yan Xiangxiu took a sip of tea and pressed his temple, "Qiang Yue Gong They are here, they have already attacked near Jiayuguan a few days ago, and the frontline soldiers are resisting."

"How could it be so sudden?" Qingli was puzzled, "I've never heard of Qiang Yue showing signs of attack before."

Although Qiangyue is located in the northwest, it is arid and cold, but at most it is just making small noises on the border, grabbing some food and grass for the winter. How could it suddenly attack our border with such ferocity?

"Not suddenly," Yan Xiang shook his head, "According to the reports from the spies, the Qiangyue Kingdom should have planned this for a long time, and the food and grass should have been prepared. Brave and resourceful, this attack was planned by him alone."

Qingli has also heard about this eldest prince, Yeluqi, who has become famous in the past two years. It is said that he is brave and good at fighting. In his hands, Qiangyue has annexed all the nomadic peoples in the northwest, making Qiangyue a grassland The king of the Qiang Yue people became the undefeated God of War.

"This Yeluqi is really talented," Qingli sighed, "What about me, Dachu, do you have a countermeasure?"

"Today I was arguing endlessly about this in the court." Yan Xiang put down his teacup and looked at Qingli, "In the end, the second prince recommended the fourth prince to lead the army to go out."

Qingli was a little startled, "What about Yunqi, did he agree? No, should the emperor agree?"

"Hey, A Li," Yan Xiang placed Qingli's hand on the back, "After the second prince proposed, the fourth prince stood up and volunteered to go to the border, and His Majesty also agreed."

"How could this be?" Qingli frowned, "No matter what, it's not Yun Qi's turn to play. In terms of status and experience, he is not enough to be the coach this time."

"My court has always valued civility over military affairs. When I was employing people, I realized that the talents were withered. There are quite a few who can fight, but there are not many who can make the emperor feel relieved to hand over the military power. Therefore, His Majesty divided the military power into two. The second prince and The four princes each get half, and the two sides are constrained to balance their strength. Once the four princes are in decline, the second prince will send troops to help. Although the four princes have no family roots in the imperial city, the second prince's mother family is in the hands of His Majesty. In this way, The general situation of the world is still controlled by His Majesty."

"So, let Yun Qi be the victim of this internal and external struggle?" Qing Li clenched his fists, a little sullen, and more helpless.what else can we do?Born in the royal family, but without the support of a strong maternal family root system, isn't it ready to be sacrificed at any time?

"A Li," Yan Xiang patted Qingli on the shoulder, knowing that Qingli and Chu Yunqi have a very good relationship, he said in relief, "Be careful, maybe this is an opportunity for him."

"Well," Qingli squeezed out a smile, "Father, then I'll go back first."

"Well, let's go."

Yan Xiang sighed, because he knew that the child had a good relationship with the fourth prince, so he brought up this matter, and sure enough, the reaction was great.

Qingli walked out of the study, the snow had stopped, the sun was shining on the white snow, as if the whole world was dazzlingly bright, Qingli felt a little dazed.

"Master, are you out?" Liu Guang went up to meet him, seeing that Qingli was a little depressed, he asked worriedly and hesitantly, "Master, what's the matter?"

"Sister Liu Guang, go and ask Yu Cheng to prepare a carriage," Qingli turned to Liu Guang, a little anxiously, "Hurry up!"

"Okay!" Liu Guang didn't dare to delay, and walked quickly to the Ping'an Pavilion, young master, how long has it been since he lost his composure?The last time was the time when His Royal Highness was injured while trying to save the emperor, what happened this time?

Qingli went straight to the gate of the mansion, and waited for a while before seeing Yu Cheng driving a carriage, Qingli got into the carriage, "Go to the palace, hurry up!"

"Yes, young master." Yu Cheng replied, and hurried on the road.

The guards at the palace gate recognized Qingli and quickly let him go.

Imperial Palace, Zhaowen Palace

"Master, Mr. Yan is outside the palace to ask for an audience." A young eunuch walked in quickly to inform that Mr. Yan was very important to His Highness, and the Zhaowen Palace attendants knew how important Mr. Yan was, so no one dared to neglect him.

Hearing the announcement, Yun Qi's writing hand paused, and a smear of ink smeared under the brush, Yun Qi raised his head, "Outside the hall? It's freezing and snowy outside, don't you know to let him into the main hall?"

The little eunuch quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Master, it's really not a slave who refuses to let Mr. Yan enter the palace, it's Mr. Yan who refuses, saying he wants to wait outside."

"Then let people come in soon?"

"Yes, yes, the slave is going right away." The little eunuch got up from the ground and hurriedly trotted out.

Is it coming so soon? Yun Qi lowered his head with a complicated mood. It was clearly his own decision, his own choice, but why does he regret it now? If he leaves, he won't be able to see that person, and he will miss his smile. Missed his care, missed his high spirits when he walked into the examination room next spring, missed him riding a tall horse to see all the flowers in the imperial capital...

Not long after, Qingli walked in, still dressed in white and snowy, with an outstanding appearance.

Qingli only knew that he had to come here, but now when he was actually in front of Yunqi, he realized that he didn't know what to say. Walking on the road, Qingli had already figured it out. If he wanted to, with his resourcefulness, he could completely push it away, but he didn't, just like the conversation with his father before, without the support of his mother, Yunqi's chances are really rare, and now is an opportunity. Although dangerous, but It is the only opportunity to stay away from the capital and cultivate his own power, Yun Qi can't give up.

"I heard from my father that you are going to go to war." Qingli said a little shyly.

"Yes, the itinerary is set in three days." Yun Qi left his seat, got up and walked to Qingli's side, held Qingli's hand, frowned, "Why is it so cold? Come on, bring a hand stove!"

"No need, it will be warm in a while." Qing Li refused with a smile.

Yun Qi didn't sort out what Qing Li said, but just took Qing Li's hand, walked to the table and sat down, "I made a decision without discussing it with you, don't mind it."

"How come?" Qing Li smiled, "It's been so many years of relationship, you should know, I understand you, you can do what you want, don't worry, I will always support you, Chu Yunqi , is Yan Qingli's good friend, isn't he?"

Yun Qi also laughed, for a person who seldom smiles usually, when he smiles, it's like melting ice and snow, it's shockingly beautiful.Qingli was also dazzled by this smile, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that her heart had missed a beat.

Yun Qi looked at Qingli seriously, as if he wanted to engrave this person's appearance into his mind, in fact, after so many years of getting along, he must have already fused this person's smiles into his bones.

Being stared at by such eyes, Qingli turned her head uncomfortably with reddened ears.

"If," Yun Qi whispered, "if something happens to me on the front line..."

A finger rested on Yun Qi's lips, stopping what he was about to say, "Stop it," Qing Li's eyes were a little red, "Don't say such things, really, you will be fine, nothing will happen. "

Yun Qi looked at Qing Li, and solemnly promised, "I'll be fine."

The four eyes met, as if something flashed in the air, so fast that people had no time to catch it...

*********

The 13th year of Yongding, the twelfth lunar month

Eighteen

The capital is full of hustle and bustle. The fourth son of the emperor is about to go to the northwest.

Chu Yunqi rode on a war horse as an official to see him off.

If he really didn't come, Yun Qi smiled wryly, didn't he already told himself, why he was still looking forward to it.

Chu Yunqi turned his head and took a deep look at the imperial city, but at the next moment, he unexpectedly bumped into a pair of gentle eyes. Qingli was standing on a tall building next to the city gate, looking at Yunqi from a distance, his gaze handover.

Chu Yunqi turned around, raised the corners of his mouth, and drove his horse away.

Qingli, wait for me to come back...
