Liu Fu sat quietly in the hall, thinking about Zhou Yifeng's words repeatedly, it seems that Zhou Yiyun was not in a hurry to seek merit, and when he did not understand the enemy's situation, he only made defensive preparations, and if he chose to attack first, he was afraid that he would be defeated now. Liu Wu thought for a while, and beckoned Xiao Ya: "Please come over, Manager Ma." ”

When Manager Ma hurriedly came, the catkins dispersed the people in the house, leaving only Xiao Ya and Wang Fan at the door to guard them. "Sit down, you and I don't have to be formalized now."

"Xie 11th Prince and Concubine sit down."

Liu Xu said bluntly: "At the beginning, the eleventh prince went on the expedition because it was recommended by other princes, and now the saint wants to send support again, and it must be elected from among the princes, do you say?" "The approach of the other princes is to drive Zhou Yiyun to death, but unfortunately they can't control the battle situation in front, it is they who mention yì, and now the form has changed, and they can only carry it around in the future, so as to show that Zhou Yuhuang is impartial.

After hearing this, Manager Ma looked at Liu Wu with a little surprise, and immediately replied after reflecting his faux pas: "The eleventh princess is really smart. ”

Liu Wu said softly: "No one in this mansion knows more about the affairs of the palace than you, and I called you here just to know what the character of the princes is." ”

"This ......"

"I said that there are only you and me now, who you live in, I don't want to know, but I am now the master of the house, I don't want to go around those crooked intestines, it is more suitable for me to go straight, you just have to say, you don't have to worry about other aspects."

"The old slave has been out of the palace for many years, and I don't know what has changed now, if the princess wants to know, then the old slave can only talk about what he knew a few years ago." Seeing Liu Fu nodded and continued: "The queen of the dynasty has two sons, one is the former prince, who is now imprisoned in the palace outside the palace, the other one is the third prince, the third prince is also one of the princes who holds military power, the mind is meticulous, and the personality is a little more ruthless than the previous prince, the second prince is weak, the fourth prince is happy, and the fifth prince is the prince of the dynasty, this ......"

"Let's move on." Liu Wu saw his hesitation and didn't want to embarrass him, and the possibility of the prince going on an expedition was completely ruled out.

"The six princes and the seventh princes, one manages the Ministry of Rites, the other manages the Ministry of Households, although the Eighth Prince led the troops, but due to an accident, he was disabled, and the Nine Emperors were named the capital to temporarily guard the northwest. The tenth prince and the eleventh prince have been friends since childhood, and they love business and have no intention of politics. ”

"Needless to say, the rest are still young. What is the relationship between the third prince and the eleventh prince? ”

"The former crown prince was cut off, and he has a very slight relationship with the eleventh prince."

Although the words were subtle, Liu Wu already knew the meaning of the words.

"If the Eleventh Prince does not return, as long as he has a meritorious reputation, the secret enemy will target the Eleventh Prince's Mansion, because he has a son-in-law and will inherit it. If they are defeated due to personal reasons, then the fate of the people in the house will be imprisonment and beheading, or they will be ruined for the rest of their lives, without merit and no name. ”

Manager Ma nodded: "Princess, and the Holy ......"

"Father's thoughts ultimately depend on everyone's attitude."

Liu Wu did not say it explicitly, it is conceivable how many people are waiting for Zhou Yiyun in this battle and there is no return, the dead will never be able to open their mouths, the blame is determined by the living, Liu Wu believes that after Zhou Yiyun goes on the expedition, those few people will definitely monitor the eleven mansions, but I am afraid that as soon as their ideas come true, the people in the mansion will immediately become prisoners, and Liu Wu thought of what Zhou Yiyun said to himself before he went on the expedition, is he too worthy of his wife.

Liu Fu propped his forehead and asked, "How long is the journey from the capital to the battlefield?" ”

"Less than 20 days' journey."

"Manager Ma, what do you think of the Eleventh Prince?"

"The old slave doesn't dare, but if the war is about to start, the eleventh prince will be able to defend until the convergence of reinforcements."

"Mr. Ma, I want to see the Holy One." Liu Wu looked at Manager Ma with a firm gaze, and his tone could not be refused.

Qingping Pass

"General, who do you say the Holy Lord will send to support?"

Zhou Yiyun looked at the topographic map in front of him: "I don't know." ”

"If the general is the third prince, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

"You're worried about my back? Li Jin, there is no way to stop the soldiers, the water will flood. ”

Li Jin looked at the general's indifferent face, and said anxiously: "General, you have to think of a way, let the Holy Lord send someone else to come." ”

Zhou Yiyun shook his head: "At the beginning, my father intended to reject their request, but I insisted on accepting it, how could my father think about his children's private affairs at this time." He looked out of the camp, but no one knew what was in his head.

"Xuan Eleventh Prince Concubine enters the palace."

"The eleventh daughter-in-law, Zhou Liuxu, has seen her father."

Zhou Yuhuang frowned, the holy decree in his hand had not yet been issued, and at this moment, this eleventh daughter-in-law came to add chaos again. "Get up, anxious to see what is the matter?"

Liu Wu did not get up: "Ask the Holy Lord for permission and let Zhou Liu Wu lead troops to support General Wu." ”

Zhou Yuhuang was slightly angry: "Zhou Liuxu, are you a child's play when you are my court?" You asked me to order one of your brothers to be the general of the reinforcements? ”

"Back to the saint, the court did not specify that the brother could not be a general, and the saint could not refuse Zhou Liuwu's request with his usual senses."

"Hmph, the first time I saw you, I knew that you were very eloquent, and I wanted to see what reason you had to convince me to gamble with the lives of the soldiers."

"The reason is trust, just like the saint trusts the eleventh prince, Zhou Liuwu has no big goal, only does his best for his family, if he wants to protect it, if he can't keep it, he won't leave one, the saint, for hundreds of years, the identity of the elder brother is despised by people, even the wife of the eleventh prince is the elder brother, all of which are laughed at, the grandfather looks down on the elder brother, because the elder brother is not as strong as the grandfather, although he is the body of the father, he can give birth to offspring like a woman, and the woman despises the elder brother, and feels that the elder brother does not have the temperament of the lord, not as soft as the woman herself, and is a waste wood in their eyes, Why do my brother do what both grandfather and woman can do, but they are still the third type of people they are ashamed of? Have no name and no place all your life, and be a slave? The daughter-in-law has always been familiar with the book of soldiers, and she doesn't want to talk about the war on paper, so she proves to the saint and the people of the world that her brother is not small, on the contrary, the third type of people they despise are very powerful. ”

Zhou Yuhuang took a deep breath, he has been trying to solve this problem since he entered politics, and his father has never forgotten this matter, not to look down on this kind of person, but also because they have no way to take it lightly, just like the education of women's three obedience and four virtues, the concept that my brother was instilled is also deep-rooted. Staring at the catkins, Zhou Yuhuang swayed and was cornered, can he be bright?

"Give me a deadline."

"It doesn't take half a year to add trips and deployments."

"Are you defeated?"

"I was a prisoner of my own free will be alive, and I will be thrown into a mess when I die."

"Okay." Zhou Yuhuang tore up the holy decree that had been prepared: "I will fulfill you."

"Thank you, Father." Liu Wu bowed his head and then spoke: "Father, the eleventh daughter-in-law still has something to ask for." ”

"Oh? Now she has become my eleventh daughter-in-law? Go ahead! "Zhou Yuhuang now has no good impression of this stubborn and hard-tempered daughter-in-law.

"There is still a son-in-law in the Eleventh Prince's Mansion, and the daughter-in-law is really not at ease, so she asks her father to settle it properly. Please fulfill your father. ”

"Get up, rest assured, tomorrow morning I will take the emperor and grandson to the palace, and I will take care of it personally, is it feasible?"

"Thank you, Father."

And after knowing the news, the three princes stood angrily in the smashed study, gnashing their teeth, obviously they had heard that their father had prepared a summons and sent him to support, but before the holy decree was issued, he was preempted by Zhou Liuwu, how could that brother He De make his father change his mind? Except for Zhou Yiyun, the frontier military power was in his hands, everything he expected, but he was taken away halfway, how could he not be angry.

It was only an hour after Liu Wu returned home, and Gonggong Liu came to announce the decree with a holy decree in his hand. Gonggong Liu looked at the kneeling Liu Wu and the others and cleared their throats and read: "The Jade Emperor of Zhou Zhou specially appointed Zhou Liuwu as the deputy general of Zhou, and led 50,000 troops to Qingping Pass to support General Wu, and he will be defeated and returned within half a year. ”

"Thank you Emperor Jinen."

Gonggong Liu handed over the holy decree to Liu Fu and helped this bold brother: "Vice General Zhou, the Holy Lord is very interested in this matter and is ready to inform the world." ”

Liu Wu smiled bitterly: "Father, how big of a stone is this going to press me?" ”

Gong sent off this big driver, Liu Wu looked at the stunned people in the courtyard, these are the people he wants to protect, Xiao Ya knelt on the ground and pulled Liu Wu's robe, crying with a sad face: "Master, you take Xiao Ya with you, please your master." ”

Liu Fu shook his legs: "Put away your dejected face, your master and I are not sent to death, tomorrow Bao Bao will go to the palace, and you must stay by Bao Bao's side, watch him for me, you can't be in a trance." Looking at the others, he explained: "After I leave tomorrow, the affairs in the house will be handed over to the side concubine to take care of, and if there is anything that can't be handled, go to discuss with Manager Ma, and the rest of the people are tightened, no matter what happens, don't mess up." ”

"Yes, master."

"Master, Wang Fan is willing to go with you for a while." "Master......" "Master......"

"Stop, stop, get a few sticks over there, you draw lots to go, and those who go will follow me, and those who can't go to the palace will do their part. I'm not hypocritical, I don't want to do good deeds, I don't want to leave a name, you have to remember, my brother asked to go to the battlefield today, for what, in my heart you are my family, I have to protect it, I hope you can also remember a little affection, take a good look at this acre and three points of land. It's all gone, Xiaoya went to find the bag. ”

A month ago, it was Liu Wu who saw Zhou Yiyun out of the city, and today Liu Wu rode a war horse on this street together, with a cold and sharp gaze on his demonic face and a battle robe, which amazed the crowd of onlookers on the street.

"Wow, is Vice General Zhou really a brother? Lie......"

"It's really beautiful, it's much more generous than the master......"

"It would be nice if I became a brother like Vice General Zhou."

"Don't think about it, he's the eleventh prince's concubine, although he is a deputy general, he has a national surname, it's amazing......"

……

Liu Fu stared ahead without squinting, listening to the gossip from all sides, and thinking with a little bad taste, if Zhou Yiyun saw the spectacular scene at this moment, would he cry when he thought of his loneliness?

During the trip, no one was allowed to use the grain and grass issued by the saint, no matter what age the materials were important auxiliary to the war, touched the crossbow hanging on his waist, he was really powerful and well-made, in the team, although there were 10,000 new weapons in each hand, it was also content, the bamboo shield on the back of the soldier was made by the willow catkins when passing through the bamboo forest, and the lack of weapons was the first thing to do was to save life, as Zhou Yiyun said, only alive can resist.

It had been 15 days since he had just entered the camp.

"Report to the general, the reinforcements have reached a hundred meters away." Li Jin rushed into the report.

Zhou Yiyun, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, opened his eyes: "I didn't expect it to be quite fast, let's go and greet it, the answer should be revealed." ”

Zhou Yiyun rode a war horse and watched Li Jin behind him, and slowly walked towards the large army they walked into, and when he saw the leader clearly, the corners of Zhou Yiyun's mouth curled, and Li Jin shouted in surprise: "What...... How is the eleventh princess. ”

One meter away, looking at each other, Zhou Yiyun smiled: "You really didn't disappoint me." ”
