Chapter 281: Departure
Out of the palace, Xiaohua felt relaxed, and a big stone in his heart was put down. But for some reason, Wu Zheng looked worried, and seemed to be still thinking about the affairs of the court.
Seeing this, Xiaohua patted Wu Zheng's shoulder, and said with a straight face: "Wu Gongzi, now you are half a rich man, don't you want to have a big meal?"
Xiaohua's tone had a hint of humor, trying to make Wu Zheng happy. However, Wu Zheng still didn't react, only pouted and said, "No appetite." Then, dragging his tired body, he walked forward.
The streets are not peaceful now, and even though the traitors have been eradicated, the common people are still terrified. There was even a phenomenon that some people began to snatch food. It is also true that it is now a time of war, and at the same time the rebellion has just been put down, and it is impossible to recover all at once.
In the next few days, the war on the border became more and more fierce, and according to the express report, more than half of the second prince's troops had been killed and wounded, and they were in urgent need of support.
After reading it, the emperor also frowned deeply. He knew the strength of his second son. Above the court, except for the military department, I am afraid that there is no one who can lead troops to fight stronger than him. That's it, it's about to be impossible to resist, and the front line is in danger.
So on the same day, the emperor convened his ministers again to discuss how to deal with it. Because of the urgency of the situation, Wang Chaopeng, the secretary of the military department, who was recuperating at home, was also unable to live in peace, and was directly carried into the imperial study.
In the imperial study, the atmosphere frequently fell silent, and the emperor's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and then looked at Wang Chaopeng. Wang Chaopeng was lying on the wooden shelf, and suddenly felt a chill on his back, damn, could it be that it was on the old man's head again?
His Majesty the Emperor first cleared his throat, and then said, "Wang Aiqing, how is your body?"
When Wang Chaopeng heard this, he knew that it was not good, and hurriedly said: "Thanks to Your Majesty Hongfu, the minister's body is much better than yesterday." ”
"In that case, how about the Qing family leading the troops to attack this time?" The emperor seemed to feel that he was a little unconscionable when he said this.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has more than enough heart but not enough strength!" As he spoke, Wang Chaopeng began to cry with a handful of snot and tears, "Your Majesty, the old minister's broken body is now true." ”
"Alright, you don't have to say it. The Emperor sighed, sat down in his seat, sighed, waved his hand, and dismissed everyone.
After everyone was gone, the emperor said, "Come out." ”
As soon as the words fell, a sloppy little old man came out from behind a pillar, holding the dust with one hand and picking his nose with the other, and rarely gnawed on the chicken legs. Before the emperor could speak, Wong Tai Sin opened his mouth first.
"When will the roast chicken restaurant open, Ben Daxian's chicken thighs are almost out of supply. ”
The emperor snorted, and had some doubts about whether he should ask for help like this old thing, how could he feel so unreliable? Forget it, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor. Thinking like this, the emperor finally said slowly: "That senior Huang, the border is in an emergency. ”
"Oh. Huang Daxian didn't care, and sat directly on the ground and complained, "Why don't you even have chicken legs in this imperial study, what if you are hungry in the middle of the process?"
The emperor is full of black lines of melon seeds, the imperial study, the chicken legs, is there any direct connection between the two, how does he feel that there is no relationship at all?
"That, Senior Huang, do you have any good ideas?" The emperor said this sentence stubbornly, thinking that he was dignified and respectful, where could he whisper so lowly.
"Oh?" Huang Daxian raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and then said, "Isn't it okay to find that loser from the flower family." ”
"Hua family, loser?" the emperor didn't even think about it for a while. After thinking about it for a long time, he barely reacted, "The kid who was rewarded today?"
Wong Tai Sin nodded with a smile, and then left without looking back.
"Where are you going?" the emperor hurriedly asked.
"Ben Daxian went to the imperial dining room to have a look, you don't have to entertain. With that, he left secretly.
The emperor sniffed again, don't ask next time, if you ask, you will go to find the chicken legs. This Wong Tai Sin is good at everything, but it doesn't look so reliable. The emperor thought about it for a long time before he finally made up his mind.
On the second day, Xiaohua was woken up by the holy decree. didn't have time to get dressed, and Gonggong Qi had already entered the lobby of the Hua family with a large number of small eunuchs. Then Luoli also walked out, and the four of them stood together and waited for the decree to be issued.
When Gonggong Qi saw that everyone was together, he was just about to read it, but he felt that something was wrong. So he spoke: "Receive the holy decree, and kneel on the ground reverently." ”
However, after he said this, the four Xiaohua still didn't react. Even Wu Zheng dozed off and said, "Then you go first, I'll go and sleep first." "Anyway, I'm going back with my shoes in tow. Luochen and Luoli were also not very interested in the emperor, so they didn't say a word, turned around and left.
As a result, only Xiaohua was left. Qi Gonggong's face was flushed, and he said in his heart that he, the red man next to the emperor, had suffered this kind of anger when he went back, and he must sue when he went back.
"Father-in-law, do you still read?" At this moment, Xiaohua's impatient voice sounded.
Although Gonggong Qi was angry, he still unfolded the holy decree, regardless of whether Xiaohua knelt down or not, and read out: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said." ”
"Eh, it's really ink, and the urgency has been delayed. As she spoke, Xiaohua snatched the holy decree and looked at it with a dull head.
Father-in-law Qi's face turned pale, and he pointed at Xiaohua's nose and began to pant heavily, "You, you, you dare." ”
"Piping and pulling. Xiaohua impatiently pushed Grandpa Qi, then turned around and went back to the room.
At this time, a few little eunuchs around Gonggong Qi hurriedly came up, and you said word by word: "Look at what kind of people are here." ”
"Ah, isn't it, if you want me to say, these people deserve to die. ”
"Yes, yes. ”
"Okay, you guys, why didn't you say it just now? Now that everyone is gone, there's still a piece of. Father-in-law Qi taught these little eunuchs a hard lesson, and then spat in the direction where Xiaohua left, and said, "Let's see." With that, he left in a huff.
Xiaohua glanced at the content of the holy decree, which probably meant that she wanted to go to the border by herself, and then made herself a general at random to help defeat the enemy. Good guy, the emperor is sick and goes to the doctor, and he has already put his hope on himself.
He woke up Wu Zheng, called Luoli over, and the four of them got together and began to ponder.
"What do you think, what does the emperor mean by this?" Xiaohua asked first.
Wu Zheng, as the first to speak, didn't even think about it, and said almost without thinking about it: "I must think that I have a meritorious role in saving the driver, so I am particularly valued." Wu Zheng's words were not ashamed, it was rare that Wu Zheng's mood had recovered a lot, and Xiaohua simply didn't say anything.
Luochen didn't say a word, drinking his wine, and the prime minister's good wine yesterday had already been delivered. Then Luochen began to be drunk and dreamed of death, playing one all the time, Jiu Mengzi.
"I think this matter has nothing to do with the Zodiac. Luoli's words are straight to the point, if it is Wong Tai Sin's meaning, it is a little intriguing.
The trip was supposed to take a turn for the worse. In the afternoon of the same day, an urgent report came from the palace that the border had been occupied by the enemy, and the second prince was retreating. When the emperor heard this, he was so anxious that he called one on fire. It is said that Gonggong Qi was also scolded by the emperor for chewing the ears of a few people by the emperor's side. At this moment, I was kneeling and reflecting on it! This incident was together, and Xiaohua had to embark on the trip in advance.
The emperor sent not many troops, only about 30,000 men. In fact, most of the soldiers and horses had been sent to the front line as early as the beginning of the war, and now this little force can be said to be squeezed out of the teeth.
Xiaohua rode on a horse, majestic. Wu Zheng is listless, going to the battlefield, why does this kind of thing have anything to do with him.
Luochen put the wine at Hua's house, and Xiaohua specially instructed him not to drink it again. But whether this kid has a private collection or not, it is unknown.
Luoli seemed calm, there was not the slightest wave in his heart, and no one knew what he was thinking.
When the men and horses were gathered, they set out. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Wu Zheng." ”
Wu Zhengyan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and when he looked back, he found that Mo Han was waving at him. I can't tell what Mo Han is thinking in his heart, but Wu Zheng is sincerely happy. He raised his horsewhip and gestured to the princess. Then, the distance starts to get farther and farther away until the display is gone.
Xiaohua frowned, surprised that the princess would come here. But at this moment, I accidentally noticed the smile on Luoli's face. Xiaohua raised her eyebrows, as if asking, "You arranged it?"
Luoli didn't answer, but the answer seemed to be self-evident. This woman always makes Xiaohua guess and can't see through, but it's very interesting!
Wu Zheng completely recovered his previous headlessness and brainlessness, and rode to the front of the whole team with a big grin, shaking the horsewhip like joy. That's like a candy kid, smiling sweetly.
The atmosphere, being surrounded by Wu Zheng, is indeed a lot better. However, Xiaohua has never forgotten her mission. He went this time to defeat the enemy. The list on his shoulders is very heavy!
In the blink of an eye, the summer had passed. In late autumn, yellow leaves fall all over the ground. The gloomy weather gives people a sense of unease. Xiaohua faintly felt that the process would not be too easy to go this time.
Looking up at the sky, midwinter is coming. Perhaps this battle will be fought for a long time until next spring, and it may not be known. The current situation is unknown, but it is reported that the situation is not optimistic. Xiaohua never thought that she would lead this large group of people to fight.
