Chapter 34 Mood
A torch was burning, making crackling sounds, and the flames swayed, illuminating Yuwen Wen's face with a shady cloudy moment. At this moment, he sat down on the edge of the couch in the palace and the bedroom.
According to the palace maids, this is the bed where the emperor slept, and Queen Zhu also slept with her.
The emperor is Yuwen Wen's prince Yuwen Weicheng, and Queen Zhu is his princess Yuchi Chifan.
Yuwen Weicheng is still a child. Although he had already slept alone when he was in the palace, after being promoted to be the new king (pseudo-emperor), there were strangers everywhere. Of course, he had to accompany his mother to sleep at night.
Yuwen Wen sat dejectedly on the couch where his wife and children had slept, without saying a word, closed his eyes and sniffed gently with his nose, wanting to smell the smell of his wife and children. However, except for the residual fragrance and medicine, he could not smell the familiar smell.
The fires flashed outside the hall, shouting, fighting, and wailing gathered into the sea, but it had nothing to do with him. Opening his eyes, looking around, looking at the bedroom where his wife and children lived for several months, Yuwen Wen was speechless.
When he came in just now, he ran around like a headless fly, trying to find traces of his wife and children's life to relieve the pain of longing for love.
However, no useful thing was found. According to the palace maids, when the emperor and Queen Zhu left, they took away all their clothes and common utensils, and the rest were large items that were not needed to be taken away.
There was no bedding covered by his wife and children. Yuwen Wen touched the couch several times, trying to find some small toys left by his son, and trying to find some jewelry left by his wife, but found nothing.
He felt sad in his heart. He had already worked very hard and took a huge risk to plan a night attack, and tried his best to attack the enemy camp. He came to the palace. He thought he could save his wife and children, but he unexpectedly lost it.
Yuwen Wen clenched his fists and panted: Mingming... Mingming was already working very hard, why...
Zhang Yu stood not far away, silent. Yuwen Wen's behavior was extremely abnormal after entering the palace. He no longer looked energetic, like a poor man who lost his wife and a son in his later years. He was desperately looking for the relics of his relatives, trying to leave a thought.
He didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only stand silently, but his mistress and the little husband just went to Yecheng and would definitely have the chance to save him again in the future.
Now, there is a war outside and you cannot stay here for a long time. Zhang Yu feels that as the commander of the entire army, Langzhu cannot stay for too long, so as not to be taken advantage of by others.
Just as he was about to say something, footsteps came from outside the hall. Zhang Yu turned his head and saw a team of soldiers coming outside the hall. He was stopped by the guards at the door. After a few whispers, the soldiers walked in with a man.
Zhang Yu walked forward with a knife, and he would not be fooled easily. The man in a bad mood and in a trance at this time. He had to check who would approach at this time, so he had to interrogate carefully.
Both sides approached, and after Zhang Yu saw the man's face clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Sima Zhang?"
Zhang Dingfa, who was tired, smiled at Zhang Yu, and walked towards Yuwen Wen without hesitation, and knelt on one knee near the front and back: "I am not aware of Zhang Dingfa's position as a princess, and the prince is not good enough. I'm here to apologize to the king!"
Yuwen Wen was distracted. Hearing the words, he raised his head and looked at the other person blankly. It took him a while to come to his senses: "Uh... Zhang Sima?"
"I am in a humble position."
"Why are you here? That's great!"
Yuwen Wen pulled Zhang Dingfa up and looked at the other party and asked again: "Why are you here?"
"King, I'm humble and incompetent..."
"Long story short, time is urgent, this is not a place to talk."
Yuwen Wen recovered his spirits, and Zhang Dingfa was not the kind of mother-in-law. He briefly explained why he was here, and then informed Yuwen Wen of a message: Somehow the traitor actually brought the emperor north back.
"I know, I'm a step late..."
"Don't worry, the traitor prime minister is quite strange this time. I think something happened in the court?" Zhang Dingfa guessed that his news was obviously not effective enough. He fell into the water and suffered a cold in Chai Village. Later, his condition worsened. He thought he was afraid of an accident and slipped back to Yecheng."
"So that's it, no wonder I suddenly returned to the north."
Yuwen Wen's source of information is palace maids. Although the palace maids have a humble identity, there are many sources of information. It is not comparable to Zhang Dingfa's "young and strong army" like that. In fact, most people in the military camp are not unclear about the illness.
Zhang Dingfa's identity is "Accompanying the Junior High School". He had no way to get close to the core figure. He only knew that the emperor (the prince) and the prime minister returned north, and the team was vast. He and his subordinates who also pretended to be "Accompanying the Junior High School High School" had no reason to accompany him, so he stayed in Beidaying.
Someone attacked at night tonight, and the noise was very loud. Zhang Dingfa and his subordinates thought about it and felt that he could not follow the prince back to Yecheng anyway, so he might as well "return" it.
It was just that the camp was in chaos and was full of fire. The chaotic army was easily injured by friendly troops in the attacking camp. Zhang Dingfa took the risk to contact the soldiers of the Anzhou army who were killed, but at least he was not killed by random knives.
What else can Yuwen Wen blame for Zhang Dingfa and his subordinates for doing their best? It is a blessing that Zhang Dingfa and others can save their lives in the Yecheng Incident. As for the princess and the prince was under house arrest, it was helpless.
Zhang Dingfa saw Yuwen Wen's lonely appearance just now. It was the first time he saw Yuwen Wen like this, putting his heart in his heart and empathizing with him. If his wife Liu Caiyun and his son were arrested, he would be restless.
But Yuwen Wen was so lonely and helpless, Zhang Dingfa advised: "King, there is Wu Dianwei in Yecheng, so don't worry, the king."
Yuwen Wen nodded when he heard this, patted Zhang Dingfa on the shoulder and smiled: "Since you have returned to the team, let's go back to the city together!"
After adjusting his mood, Yuwen Wen walked out of the hall and was attracted by the sky-sky fire in the north. When he turned around, he saw that the dock on the Rushui River and the granary where the grain was hoarding had turned into a sea of fire.
This time, Yuwen Wen led his troops to attack at night, but he was unable to save people and was not beheaded, but he burned the granary and turned the Beida Camp into a sea of fire. It was a great victory only from a military perspective.
The Beida Camp was only disrupted, but in fact, it could not kill many people. Many enemy soldiers just fled and could be collected afterwards. The enemy also had three camps in the east, south and west, and the cumulative force was still quite large, so the threat faced by Xuanhu still existed.
But after burning the other party’s food and grass, the situation will be different. No matter how many soldiers there are, there will be no war without food and grass. However, the siege army that mainly relies on the upper reaches of the Ru River to transport food and grass. How long can the surplus grain last after the main granary is burned?
Zhang Yu approached and whispered: "Master Lang, it's getting late."
"Then let's go and act according to the plan."
Yuwen Wen walked a few steps and suddenly turned around and looked into the hall. Looking at the couch where Zhang's wife and children had slept, Zhang Yu thought the man was mainly taking the couch away, but he didn't know that what he heard was the order to burn the palace.
The wooden structure is easy to burn. Yuwen Wen looked at the sky-high fire without any regrets. What if he took the couch back? It was so unlucky.
He didn't die with his wife and children, he had to rely on the relics to remember him. This time he couldn't save anyone, so what if he returned to Yecheng next time, he must attack and save people.
Thinking of this, Yuwen Wen looked north and sneered several times.
