277. Letter from Home

Wang Jue nodded, looking at the sky in the distance, although it was already spring, but Yanmen Pass was still very cold, and those camps were extremely unsightly under the gray sky, "It's really time for these Tartars to come, Hemei and I have already checked the horse market in recent years, and as a result, they have all been disrupted by this group!"

Speaking of this, Xia Mingchen was angry, "That's why I said that Wei Feng, it's just too cunning!"

Xiao Wei shook his head, "At the moment, the war is still important, and when this battle is over, it is not too late for the horse market to clean up slowly, the emperor has been waiting for thirteen years, presumably this time can still be endured." ”

Xia Mingchen originally wanted to say that he took advantage of this time to secretly touch the affairs of the horse market, but when he heard Xiao Wei say this, he had to swallow the words in his mouth again.

A soldier came up and handed Xia Mingchen a letter: "Vice General Xia, there is a letter from your family." ”

Xia Mingchen's eyes were wide open, he hadn't written a letter to his family these days, he didn't expect his family to write a letter.

He hurriedly took the letter and opened it at a glance.

It was a letter sent by Xia Mingche, which briefly mentioned some changes in Yunfu City, focusing on what happened at home, some of Chanyi's encounters, and the decision of the Zhu family living in his grandmother's house to buy real estate in Yunfu, as well as his marriage, and wrote four or five pieces of stationery.

Wang Jue looked at him with a solemn expression, and asked, "Hemei, what did the letter say?"

"It's something at home," Xia Mingchen handed the letter to Wang Jue, frowning and thinking, "Jinyu has always been cautious, he shouldn't be a person who can write about these parents, but I have read it several times, and I don't understand what he means." ”

Wang Jue took the letter and read it quickly, the letter said that because Mrs. Gu persecuted Xia Chanyi and was fined forty canes by the emperor, she died of serious injuries, and the governor of the Chinese army was replaced by General Xiao Rui, and after Chu Shaoyuan disappeared, the emperor and a number of officials were sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and then mentioned the matter of Chunqiu, his own marriage, and the dynamics of the Zhu family.

"Jinyu is really as careful as a hair......" Wang Jue's expression had a hint of realization, "It seems that the matter of the horse market cannot be delayed." ”

Xiao Wei looked at Wang Jue suspiciously, "You mean to say that you want to investigate the horse market first?"

Wang Jue nodded, "Hemei and I originally came here for this matter. ”

"Wei Feng will not let you go. Xiao Wei is very aware of Wei Feng's temper, how can Wei Feng cooperate at this juncture?

Wang Jue smiled and said: "Have you forgotten? The prince had already arrived at Yanmen Pass yesterday, and he should have gotten up at this time, with the prince here, even if Wei Feng was unwilling, he couldn't help it." ”

This is also the main purpose of Xia Mingche's letter, first to remind him that the current alliance between the two Gu Wei families has been broken, and then several patrol roads in Youzhou and Yanzhou have been sent to prison by the Ministry of Punishment, which shows that the Wei family has been isolated by the emperor, and then mention the mother family of Chunfu and the Queen Mother, the emperor has not ascended the throne earlier, he has also heard about the fact that the Zhu family does not come to the throne, but if he does not come out, the emperor will definitely give him a heavy responsibility, and the marriage is a metaphor for the Wei family may form an alliance with the ministers of the court at this time, he did not expect that the Wei family has reached the point of forming an alliance with others。

And at this time, they are in Yanmen Pass, what is the most important?

The first thing the emperor sent him over was to recover the horse market, even if there was a war, it was also a matter for Wei Feng and Xiao Wei.

I have to say that this letter came very timely.

"Hemei, let's pack up and go to see the prince, at this time, it is better for His Royal Highness the prince to have an idea. ”

Wang Jue patted Xia Mingchen on the shoulder and slowly walked down the city tower.

Xia Mingchen hurriedly followed, "Shuyun, do you have any good ideas, tell me about them." ”

Wang Jue said as he walked: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first came to Yanmen Pass, there must be many things that he didn't understand, we have been here for a long time, so naturally we want to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the situation, don't worry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise and martial, and will naturally make the most correct decision......"

Xiao Wei listened to Wang Jue's words, and the corners of his mouth were also filled with a smile, since this is the case, the matter of the war will be left to him.

The Nine Kings of the Tartars?

Xiao Wei looked at the rows of camps in the distance, a light smile appeared on Qingjun's face, and his bright eyes shone brightly.

Father's wish is to really beat the Tartar back into the Red Cloud Mountain, and let him finish what his father hasn't done!

At this moment, the prince had just gotten up from the bed, trembling and going to the clean room, and after a burst of water, he heard the sound of the copper basin falling to the ground, "Which dog slave has the washing water?

The maid who was waiting at the door hurriedly came in and bowed her head to clean up, and was kicked over by the prince, "You cheap maid, you still have to come in with the palace to call you, your shelf is big enough!"

The maid lay on the ground trembling, and pleaded urgently: "His Royal Highness the Prince's forgiveness, the slave maid is worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will rest, so he doesn't dare to come in and disturb, the slave and maid have been waiting outside, the water in the copper basin was prepared for you to wipe your face last night, the slave didn't expect you to sleep without wiping your face yesterday, if His Royal Highness the Prince wants to wash, the slave and maid will go to fetch water." ”

The prince kicked her again, "What a sharp-toothed maid, someone is coming!"

Immediately, two attendants came in and knelt in front of the prince, "What does His Royal Highness the prince command?"

The prince commanded angrily: "Pull this out to hit twenty boards, and there is nothing in your eyes!"

The attendant immediately put the maid out, and the sound of beating the board sounded in the courtyard, and the woman's cry of pain, the voice was sharp, and it sounded very poignant, the prince frowned, and stood lazily in the room, and before the sound of the board outside fell, a beautiful maid walked in to serve him and dress.

The prince looked at the beautiful face of the maid, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he reached out and rubbed the maid's body fiercely, "You are on duty tonight, don't make the same mistake as her again." ”

The maid immediately lowered her head and said yes.

"Your Highness, the Marquis of Dingguo and Vice General Xia have something to see. The guard at the door said respectfully.

"Keep them waiting!"

The prince slowly got dressed, cleaned his face, and let the maid comb his hair, and then went to the outer hall.

Xia Mingchen and Wang Jue sat here and waited for half an hour, and even the tea had been served several times, but the people who didn't see the prince were extremely impatient in their hearts, but Wang Jue sat there and didn't move like a mountain, and he couldn't show any strange looks, and he was uncomfortable for a while.

The prince was late, Wang Jue and Xia Mingchen got up to salute, and the prince hurriedly helped him up.

"Don't be so polite to me outside. ”

Wang Jue's face was cold, he looked very strict, and his voice seemed to be clear and clear like penetrating ice: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just arrived at Yanmen Pass yesterday, and originally the minister planned to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rest for a few days before mentioning it, but during today's morning exercise, when the minister and Xiao Xianfeng were looking at the city tower together, they found some abnormalities, and they were afraid of delaying His Royal Highness the Prince's major affairs, so they came to tell His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

The smile on the prince's face retracted, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"Please also ask the prince to retreat!"

The prince was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the guards guarding the outer hall, "You all go down, the palace will pass on to you if there is something." ”

The guards commanded, and came out respectfully, the door of the outer hall was tightly closed, and the guards stood in a row outside the door, and there was no slight sound in the room.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from inside the room, mixed with the prince's angry voice: "Wei Hechang!"

The guards looked at each other, General Wei's expression was Hechang, and I didn't know what the Marquis of Dingguo said to the prince, and His Royal Highness the prince would call General Wei's name in such a hurry.

After a long time, the prince summoned someone in, and there was no anger on the prince's face, as if the roar was not from him, but only broken porcelain scattered on the ground, showing how angry the people in the house had been not long ago.

"This matter is also up to the prince to decide. Wang Jue had an indifferent smile on his face.

The crown prince nodded, "You go back first, and I will discuss this matter with General Wei before making plans." ”

Wang Jue retreated with Xia Mingchen.

Xia Mingchen looked at Wang Jue's angry face, and couldn't help but admire: "I didn't expect Wang Shuyun, who is known as the cold-faced marquis, to compliment a person like this, tsk, although you have a smile on your face on weekdays, there is no smile in your eyes, but it is not as good as me, so I simply don't laugh, but it is intimidating." ”

The corners of Wang Jue's mouth went up, and after walking out for a long time, he said: "The success or failure of this matter depends on the prince, we must be energetic." ”

"I know this, so we still have some things in our hands, and I'm not afraid that the prince won't believe it. ”

Xia Mingchen pointed in the direction of the guard.

Wang Jue nodded, and there was a dim and unknown light condensed in his dark eyes.

He looked at the low clouds in the sky and sighed: "It's spring, this winter is finally over." ”

……

Wei Feng held the secret letter from Yunfu in his hand, read it carefully, and then threw it into the brazier.

A guard whispered at the door: "General, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent you over to discuss matters." ”

Wei Feng replied, pulled out a map from the bookshelf, and got up to go to the prince's current residence.

The prince sat on the chair in the hall, with a brazier burning under his feet, and a large coat tightly wrapped around his body, and the whole person looked like a thick bear, but he still felt the cold air constantly rushing up from the soles of his feet.

When Wei Feng saw it, he smiled softly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, did you sleep well yesterday?"

He didn't mention this, but when he mentioned this, the prince couldn't help but complain: "The bed board is too hard, and I slept all night...... I was sore

Wei Fengyu apologized: "There is indeed a shortage of materials here, since I know that the prince is coming, it has only been prepared for less than three days, it is indeed a little inappropriate, the minister has already sent someone to buy some brocade quilts made of cloud brocade and mulberry silk from Yunzhou, you will arrive in two or three days." ”

[Kavin, I thought about the plot all night last night, and I didn't fall asleep until the morning, o(β•―β–‘β•°)o, Xiaoyi felt that he was so tragic!]
