Chapter 47: Zuo Bingfan

That night, Yuan Luo stepped on the moonlight and once again came to the corridor behind Yuxiu Palace.
As expected, the young man was silently staring at the lights in the distance under the corridor.
Seeing Yuan Luo coming with a smile, she quickly greeted him: "Why are you here?"
"Just looking at these suspended lights, I can't help but think of the flames of war ignited at the border gates. Looking far away, is it so bright." Recalling the description on the battle report, it was straightforward but accurate. People can't help but wonder what a shocking picture it would be.
Gu Yi laughed: "Lian Niangniang has also heard of it."
"It's spread all over the capital. Go and ask, who doesn't know?"
Gu Yi followed her gaze and said in a low voice: "No matter how bright the flames on the battlefield are, they can't get rid of the blood. After all, they are not as quiet and peaceful as the palace."
"But it is the flames that guarantee these quiet and peaceful lamps." Yuan Luo said with a smile.
It was the countless bloodshed and sacrifices at the border that brought peace to the world and the people to live in peace.
Yuan Luo looked at the joyful face of the teenager, and suddenly asked, "Don't you feel a little depressed? Speaking of which, you planned this battle behind the scenes. Now you can't get any credit."
Compared with the well-known Zuo Bingfan who became famous because of this battle, Gu Yi, as the true creator of this great victory, can only be unknown. Think about it, Yuan Luo feels that it is difficult for him. .
According to the original work, Gu Yi rose step by step in the battle to recover the lost ground. When he regained the Tiange Pass, "Cai Yunheng" was already one of the emerging generals in northern Xinjiang. Now he has to be trapped in the palace, because he has embarked on a completely different path.
Gu Yi didn't see depression on his face, "All those who do meritorious service are brothers, so why bother about this." His eyes are bright and clear, and he really doesn't care at all.
Yuan Luo nodded, yes, Zuo Bingfan is also your good buddy anyway.
In the original book, Zuo Bingfan is also an impressive name for her. This guy, like Cai Yunheng, is also a good brother of the male protagonist who grew up with him. Compared with Cai Yunheng who died young, Zuo Bingfan fought with the male protagonist. He is his most trustworthy left and right arm. Even in the comment column of the original book, there are many readers of the socialist brotherhood of yy.
Gu Yi gave him the key to the entire strategy, which was also full of trust.
Gu Yi turned his gaze on Yuan Luo and said sincerely: "In fact, the biggest credit for this big victory should be the empress. If there were things like hot air balloons, I wouldn't be able to make this round."
"I just put forward a concept, it's you who really do it." Yuan Luo shrugged.
To complete this plan, they need to repeatedly improve the hot air balloon and accurately calculate the flight speed and fuel. Then comprehensively consider the wind direction and distance, and choose the right weather. There are also places of ambush, the trend of soldiers and horses. A victory is a brilliant achievement, but before the result, I don’t know how much effort is needed to pour it out.
"Not only this, but thanks to the knowledge Niang Niang taught me, mathematics is really useful." Gu Yi couldn't help laughing.
"Otherwise, how to say it, learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, and not afraid to travel around the world." Yuan Luo muttered.
"What is mathematics, physics and chemistry?"
"Uh, it's a certain school of knowledge..."
Under the curtain of night, there was a clear sound of insects from the lake, and the night wind blew through, and Yuan Luo felt that the entire sky became clear.
Luocheng's great victory made her feel more comfortable than ever.
Looking at the teenager next to her, she was in a delicate mood, because it was the first time to observe him with such new eyes.
During this time of getting along, she always felt that Gu Yi was still a half-year-old child, but because of the family disaster, he was more mature and stable than others.
A mature and stable child is also a child.
But after experiencing this incident, she truly realized that in this era, he is already an adult. He has been on the battlefield, killed the enemy, experienced calculations and tactics, and is also calculating others.
He was in the vortex of the palace, but he still controlled the situation thousands of miles away, from the business in northern Xinjiang to the adjustment of the layout of the battlefield.
From this point of view, there is essentially no difference between him and Prime Minister Wei, who often intrigues himself in court.
In response to Yuan Luo's gaze, the young man suddenly leaned over.
Yuan Luo looked at his bright eyes, and her heart beat faster.
Gu Yi raised his hand and wiped it from the top of her head, and a petal fell. Summer is here, and more and more flowers bloom in this palace.
The night breeze blew, looking at the endless palace rooms, and the lights of the stars. At this hour, many people in the palace haven't rested yet.
Standing side by side, Gu Yi took out something from his arms and whispered: "There is something to give to the empress."
Yuan Luo looked at the small slap-sized box he took out of his arms, and took it in surprise, "What is this?"
"Lingxi Pill is said to restore a woman's face as before. I don't know if the empress has ever heard of it." Gu Yi introduced with a smile.
Yuan Luo was taken aback. Of course she had heard of this. In the original book, Gu Yi found it in the second half of the story and restored Queen Wei's beauty. How could this be brought to me in a blink of an eye.
Gu Yi didn't hide her from her, and simply said: "It was something my father got in Northern Xinjiang. When he hired Webster for me back then, it was given as a bride price. Now the marriage contract is cancelled and this thing is returned. It’s useless for me to keep it anyway, just so I can try it."
"I don't need this." Yuan Luo said.
"I know that the empress' worries about her appearance will cause the imperial concubine's jealousy. I don't need it for the time being. But I promise that sooner or later in the future, the empress can walk in the sun at will, without being restrained by the imperial concubine." The young man smiled.
Hey, don't talk nonsense! Will provoke the murderous intent of this palace.
Yuan Luo murmured, and secretly rolled his eyes to him.
The two spoke for a while, and due to Gu Yi's persistence, Yuan Luo could only return to Yuxiu Palace with this special gift.

After a big victory, the atmosphere of the entire court and even the entire capital was different.
Before Tiangeguan and Luocheng fell into Beirong's hands, the government and the public were full of anxiety and panic. Now they have finally regained them, and there is a brilliant victory. For a while, even the theater troupes of the major restaurants were talking about the story of the shooting star falling into the high city in the dark night, and fleeing by barbarians, and the major general killing the enemy in the middle of the night.
"From this point of view, my Dayu is the destiny, and the foreign barbarians cannot invade. This is the vision of the heavenly descending to protect us from victory."
"Yes, throughout the past dynasties, the country is strong and powerful. Only when all nations came to the dynasty did this miracle appear!"
...
auzw.com Due to the need for military secrecy, the Ministry of War did not disclose the insider details of this battle. In folk legends, the meteors are regarded as real world visions.
Originally recorded in historical books, there are many phenomena that have fallen from the sky and changed the battlefield, such as the war between Wang Mang, the traveler, and Liu Xiu, the son of the plane, and the war between the ancient Huangdi Chiyou, but now they are just continuing. Just add an anecdote.
Yuan Luo now very much doubted whether the miracles recorded in the historical annals were also participated by new weapons, which were regarded by onlookers as a vision of the heavens.
This question fell to Lian Yanqiu's ears, just plainly saying: "These legends are no longer exquisite, but if they are recorded in this way, it can be seen that they are also popular. For example, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, supported by the people, praised by the family, is orthodox."
Yuan Luo glanced at him. Although these words were implicit, they also meant that Liu Xiu had created rumors to emphasize the legitimacy of occupying the world. The opponent is going to be condemned by the sky, is it still worthy to be an emperor?
Lian Yanqiu added: "Since ancient times, even if you are a king and a good minister, you must have a righteous status. If the etiquette does not exist, how is it different from the barbarians?"
Yuan Luo nodded: "It can be seen that the heroes are competing, but the world is changing with swords, guns and swords."
Lian Yanqiu glanced at her: "Niangniang, be careful."
Yuan Luo nodded with a guilty conscience. As a vested interest in the emperor's power, she is obliged to support this procedure.
After speaking, she felt that something was wrong again. She had discovered before that even Yanqiu seemed to have little respect for the royal family and destiny. Probably the closer you are to the imperial power, the shallower the thought influence of those illusory imperial powers.
But even a posterity thinks so, this guy is Chief Jin Lin! Didn’t it mean that the chief governor of Jinlin must be the who was most loyal to the royal family? Was he also such an indifferent attitude before Emperor Xianning?
Impossible, Emperor Xianning was suspicious and cruel, even if he was confused by beauty, it was impossible to give such an important task to someone who did not trust him. So in front of Emperor Xianning, this guy should pretend to be very good, and there is no need for himself and the fool emperor.
This cunning guy!

After the victory, Luo Cheng's defense arrangements were completed, and the soldiers and horses who had made great achievements in this battle returned to Beijing to receive the reward. At the same time, a grand ceremony for offering prisoners will be held.
Yuan Luo originally thought it was unnecessary, after all, the Tiange Pass was still in Bei Rong's hands.
But think about it as a necessary trick to gather people's hearts. After all, since Sikonglin took the throne, he has not done much inside and outside the country. Now that there is such a great victory, it is enough to sacrifice to the temple.
At the court, Yuan Luo saw Zuo Bingfan for the first time.
The face once described in the book is very vivid in my eyes.
Zuo Bingfan is very good-looking, with long legs and slender waist. He is a few years older than Gu Yi. His face is beautiful and clean, but his brows are naturally cold, as if the spirit of killing is condensed, and he wears that black armor. It seems that the whole person is elegant and cold.
I remembered that in the original book, he was Gu Yi's top warrior, with a literary appearance, but his style on the battlefield was more determined and ruthless than his boss. Gu Yi treated the enemy cruelly and took good care of his subordinates. He also paid attention to protecting the civilians on the battlefield. Zuo Bingfan was completely different. He was the kind of bait that allowed the civilians to be used as bait without hesitation for victory. A killer character with a headache for the enemy.
Probably a few years later, on a battlefield, his brother was captured by the enemy and pulled to the front, threatening to retreat. Not only was this guy not threatened, he also bowed his bow and shot his brother to death with one arrow. That was his only relative in the world, and he loved him very much on weekdays.
Wanting to be absorbed, watching the audience of the heroes finish.
He Zhaode, the official book of the Ministry of Rites, personally read out the rewards to everyone, and the hall was filled with joy.
Among them, Zuo Bingfan directly jumped three levels in a row, and was promoted to the rank of Xuanwei general. The military commander has this advantage. You don't have to wait for qualifications like a civil servant, and you can go straight up in a big victory on the battlefield.
In fact, Zuo Bingfan's award is still shallow in comparison. If it is a child of a noble family, the official position will only be higher, and it is even more of a noble title. As a poor student, he doesn't have so many preferential treatments, but he has rewarded a lot of gold and silver fields and other goods, which is a little compensation.
The other military and horse generals also have their own rewards, and everyone is happy.
After awarding the heroes, the grand ancestor worship and prisoner offerings were to be held outside the city.
So after leaving the dynasty, the civil and military officials and the concubines of the harem all went to the small square to the east, where the frame of honor was already prepared.
The size of the team is even more grand than that of the New Year's Day.

Zuo Bingfan followed a group of colleagues to the East Square.
Many people crowded around him with humble expressions and complimented the rookie general.
Zuo Bingfan dealt with it indifferently. He had a weak personality and didn't like the excitement.
The group walked to the East Square. He paused, and his eyes fell on one of the guards at the end of the team. Although wearing black ordinary guard costumes, he still had a graceful and graceful appearance.
Standing by the corridor, Gu Yi was checking a horse. Feeling the sight behind him, he stopped working and turned around.
Seeing familiar friends, smiles of joy, bright as a pearl.
"You're back."
Zuo Bingfan shrugged, "Yes, I finally didn't die at the border."
The people around were quiet, and most generals knew about the friendship between the two in the past.
"The war is fierce, how is the injury?" Gu Yi's eyes fell on his slightly lower right shoulder. He had seen the battle report sent by Gu's eyeliner before. During that battle, Zuo Bingfan's right shoulder was seriously injured. Judging from this stiff appearance, it was obvious that he had not healed.
"Your news is well-informed." Zuo Bingfan showed a slightly ridiculous smile, "Don't worry, but it's just a minor injury. Just raise it. I'm waiting for a rough person, not the same as the noble son who hides under a woman's skirt. ."
The surrounding air instantly stagnated.
Zuo Bingfan's colleagues, the guards around the carriage, all showed strange expressions.
Gu's family was guilty, and he started from scratch, but was left as a guard in the palace. There have been vague rumors in the palace. Why was the imperial concubine's concubine taking a fancy to her because she was born so well? Although the imperial concubine has never been summoned since then, she still can't stop the enthusiasm of the people for gossip, and has always been the focus of everyone's criticism of the beautiful and turbulent imperial concubine.
It's just that all of this can only be said in secret, the imperial concubine's methods are ruthless, but everyone knows. Now Zuo Bingfan raised the matter upright.
The attitude of General Zuo turned against his former friends?
Everyone was thinking quietly in their hearts.
This is also normal. After all, the Gu family only relied on Gu Liangyong to have such a prosperous and wealthy. Now the Great Tree has fallen, and only Gu Yi is an orphan who is not famous.
Zuo Bingfan has a bright future. Many people think that in a few years, he will surely be able to rise to the top and achieve the meritorious status of Gu Liangyong.
There are no two days, and there can be two masters in an army. Although the elite soldiers and horses left by Gu Liangyong are still worried about the affection of the old generals in the past, it is still uncertain who will lead them in the future. Now Zuo Bingfan is preemptive, to determine his right to speak in the Gu family army.
The author has something to say: 　　 There is a chapter in the evening
