Chapter 1355

I am afraid he won't have many days in Chang'an City this year.

Although he has taken Hedong Commandery and Hongnong Commandery, Luoyang is right in front of him.

But breaking through the eight passes of Luoyang is obviously not that easy.

Hedong Commandery is adjacent to Bingzhou.

Bingzhou must be taken next year, otherwise Hedong Commandery will be threatened by the flank at all times.

And there is Hanzhong.

Hanzhong is the only way to Bashu, and it is also the only way out of Bashu.

It must be attacked and defended.

Therefore, next year, he will likely face splitting his troops into three routes.

One is to garrison Hanzhong, one is to attack the eight passes of Luoyang, and the other is Bingzhou.

Under these circumstances, he naturally cannot stay in Chang'an for long.

After Duan Yu finished speaking, He Lingsi's eyes were slightly resentful.

On the imperial path leading to Jiaofang Hall, in addition to palace maids and eunuchs, there was also the Yuanwei Battalion wearing red leather armor.

And Wang Yi, the commander of the Yuanwei Battalion, also wearing red leather armor, with a slightly old cloak behind her, stood in front of the gate of Jiaofang Hall.

When she saw He Lingsi and Duan Yu, Wang Yi immediately lowered her head and bowed.

"Get up." Duan Yu looked at Wang Yi and asked: "How is it, are you used to Chang'an?"

Wang Yi, with her head lowered, had a slightly complex look in her eyes: "Reporting to the Marquis, everything is fine."

He Lingsi, standing on the side, smiled and looked at Duan Yu and Wang Yi.

At this moment, the intuition of being a woman was infinitely magnified in He Lingsi.

On the way to Jiaofang Hall, He Lingsi said with a smile: "This commander named Wang Yi... is probably also your admirer, right? I heard that you killed her fiancé, and then took her in."

"If you don't take her in now, she probably won't be able to get married for the rest of her life."

Duan Yu ignored He Lingsi's whispering and went to the cradle of his youngest son.

After staying in Jiaofang Hall for a while, Duan Yu received news from Li Ru and returned to the Marquis of Ji's residence in Chang'an City.

And not long after Duan Yu left.

He Lingman ran into Jiaofang Hall with her black skirt in her hand.

"Sister..."

After coming in, He Lingman looked at He Lingsi, panting.

"Sister, why are you so panicked?"

He Lingsi, who was holding little Duan Tian, asked.

"Sister, don't you know? I just heard that the evil empress sent someone from Luoyang to Chang'an, saying she wanted to confer a title on Duan Yu."

"What?"

Hearing this, He Lingsi was shocked and got up from the soft couch, looking at He Lingman, furrowing her eyebrows and asking: "Is what sister said true?"

He Lingman nodded hurriedly and said: "It's absolutely true. It is said that the person who came is Cui Lie."

"Sister, that evil empress is preparing to win over Duan Yu. Sister, you must not be careless."

He Lingman stepped forward to explain the pros and cons: "That evil empress must want to use this method to win over Duan Yu. If Duan Yu accepts the title from that evil empress, how should sister conduct herself?"

A flash of panic immediately flashed in He Lingsi's beautiful eyes.

No wonder Duan Yu left the palace immediately after receiving the news just now.

Did Duan Yu also learn this news just now?

"Duan Yu... should not, right."

He Lingsi muttered to herself.

Xinfeng County, near Xiting, a team of carriages and horses is moving along the official road toward Chang'an.

The team consists of dozens of cavalry and hundreds of people.

There are also more than a dozen carriages.

At the head is a huge black carriage.

Inside the carriage, Cui Lie, wearing a black official robe, sat in the carriage, looking out through the window.

The expression on Cui Lie's face in the carriage was as ugly as if a close relative had died.

"Where are we?"

Cui Lie, looking through the window, asked the deputy envoy accompanying him outside.

"Reporting to the Minister of Works, ahead is Hongmen Pavilion. We should be able to arrive at Hongmen Pavilion by evening." The deputy envoy said.

When he heard the three words Hongmen Pavilion, Cui Lie's brow jumped involuntarily.

There was a faint feeling of unease in his heart.

Hongmen Pavilion.

It seems that it is not a place with a good implication.

This place is where the Hongmen Banquet took place back then.

"Pass the order down, let the team speed up and arrive in Chang'an as soon as possible." Cui Lie said. ===== CHAPTER 1357 =====
