Chapter Twenty-Three: Secretly Transferring Troops

King Chenjun nodded approvingly when he heard Wanxi's words, he got the news of the spies planted in the Northern Wei Dynasty, so he was sure that this war was inevitable, Wanxi actually thought of these only by the time when the crops in the north were ripe, and the ridiculous thing was that these ministers in the court who were holding the royal palace were not as good as a woman in the boudoir, so he then said to Wanxi: "That's right, I got the news, recently Emperor Wen of the Northern Wei Dynasty was infected with a strange disease and could not govern, and now his younger brother Wei Wuhou is in charge of the court, this Wuhou is very close to the Western Xia Emperor, So I sent people to keep an eye on it, and I was secretly transferring troops at the same time.

Wanxi asked, "It's been arranged now?" ”

King Chenjun nodded and said: "The emperor's grandfather is now old, he is bent on peace, it is difficult to transfer troops from the military department, I can only secretly transfer some people from the west, fortunately, Fengming Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and can resist for a while for the time being, and once he starts a war in the future, he will transfer troops from the capital, I am afraid that I am only afraid of ......", King Chenjun paused, and said gently: "Besiege but not attack, pretend to seek peace?" King Chenjun nodded solemnly: "So this time I plan to go with Lord Luo and stay in Fengming Pass for a period of time, once the situation changes, I can deal with it in time, but, Xi'er ......"

King Chenjun hesitated and didn't know how to speak, Wanxi knew that he didn't know how to say goodbye to him, so he said, "When do you plan to leave, and when will you return to Beijing if it goes well?" ”

"Today's dynasty is finally scheduled for three days later, your father Lord Luo as an envoy from the capital will not be a country, set off, I plan to discuss with you and then go to ask for a decree, three days later with Lord Luo set off, if it goes well, the month will return to the capital."

Although Wanxi was reluctant in her heart, when she heard King Chenjun say that he came back to discuss with him first, her heart was filled with warmth, so she said, "If I don't agree, won't you go?" ”

King Chenjun nodded and said, "As long as you are happy." ”

Wanxi shook her head and said: "Under the white bones and horses' hooves, everyone has a home, the most bitter thing in the war is the people, but if you don't fight, blindly retreat, the country will not be a country, and the people are the bitterest, the county king has been stationed in the west for seven years, and now the people in the west live and work in peace and contentment, how can I let hundreds of people be trapped in fire and water because of my own selfishness", said with a smile and said: "But make the dragon city fly general, do not teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain." Don't disgrace me. ”

King Chenjun was very moved by Wanxi's words, silently pulled her into his arms, and said softly: "When I come back, will Miss Luo be willing to marry me?" Wanxi was stunned for a moment, although she had made her mind clear in the past few days, but she hadn't thought about this question yet, was it a bit fast, so she was speechless for a while, and she didn't know how to answer, King Chenjun knew that she hadn't thought about it yet, so she said: "Don't rush to answer me, I'll tell me the answer when I return to Beijing." ”

The graceful little face leaned against King Chenjun's chest, feeling his undulating and powerful heartbeat, and said sneeringly: "Then you have to come back soon." The corners of King Chenjun's mouth raised into a smile.

Seeing Wanxi fall asleep, King Chenjun climbed over the wall and returned to his courtyard, saw the light in the study on, and knew that Zhan Feng was inside, so he pushed the door in.

Zhan Feng and the other county kings were about to fall asleep, and when they saw the county king enter the door, he said angrily: "I said prince, it's too early for you to take care of anything else, isn't it still two days before you leave, you guys are good, kiss me endlessly, I will be trapped to death." ”

King Chenjun ignored him, sat directly behind the table and asked, "How is Xiao Jie's arrangement?" ”

Zhan Feng also became serious and said: "Xiao Jie has sent several groups of people over in a row, and the personnel are relatively scattered, all of them pretending to be Huazi, farmers, merchants, etc. to go out of the city according to what you said, and for the time being, it has not aroused the suspicion of the Western Xia side and the imperial court, but are these three thousand people enough?" ”

King Chenjun nodded: "If it is not a problem to resist for a while in a war, how is the arrangement of grain and grass?" "There is a way that the soldiers and horses have not arrived, and the grain and grass go first, Zhan Feng said: "There are two thousand defenders in Fengming Pass, and the winter is about to end, and the preparation of grain and grass should be very substantial, Xiao Jie is afraid that he will not be able to transport grain and grass." King Chenjun pondered for a while and said: "I will find a way for the grain and grass of our three thousand people, during the period of peace talks, we will not be able to transport the grain and grass from Fengming Pass." ”

On the morning of the second day, the emperor and the ministers discussed the specific details of Lord Luo's envoy, the king of Chenjun knelt on the ground and asked to go with Lord Luo, and the deputy general Zhan Feng seconded the proposal, the emperor thought about it and readily agreed, on the one hand, the king of Chenjun went with him to show that the Liang attached great importance to this peace talks, and with the prestige of Chen'er on the border, it could also deter and deter the Northern Wei Dynasty.

After the next dynasty, the emperor continued to speak in the imperial study, and the emperor took a sip of tea and said, "How are you and the girl of the Luo family?" King Chenjun replied, "Very good." ”

"Your aunt and grandmother came to show me the embroidered picture that the girl gave her, and I am very disappointed." The Emperor sighed deliberately.

King Chenjun deliberately pretended to be puzzled and said, "Grandfather Huang likes that embroidery?" Seeing that the emperor nodded, he continued: "Then just ask my aunt and grandmother." ”

The emperor looked at his imperial grandson deliberately diverging, so he had to say: "I told you last time, when did you bring that girl to show me?" ”

King Chenjun replied: "Wait until you come back from Fengming Pass this time." ”

After chatting for a while, King Chenjun said goodbye and came out of the palace, and at this time, Wanxi was arranging for Zipei to go to Muyun Tower to find Yunmo.

King Chenjun quietly came to Wanxi's door, knocked on the door, Zijin opened the door and saw that it was King Chenjun who was stunned, and was busy kneeling down to give a salute, King Chenjun said with a false support: "Don't be polite, your young lady is in the room?" ”

"Here, please come in, prince." Zijin turned sideways and invited King Chenjun into the house, turned around and went out to prepare tea.

The brazier burned the room very warm, Wanxi was lazily leaning on the soft collapse by the fire, embroidering a purse in her hand, seeing King Chenjun come in, she raised her face and said with a smile: "You are here, sit here, warm your hands." ”

King Chenjun sat on the small chair opposite Wanxi, looked at Wanxi and asked, "What are you embroidering?" Wanxi blushed and said, "Embroider a purse for you", thought about it again, sank his face and said, "The king of the county won't dislike it, right?" King Chenjun smiled: "Miss Luo's words are wrong, and this king can't ask for it." After laughing for a while, Wanxi asked, "Last night you said that you secretly transferred troops to Fengming Pass?" ”

King Chenjun replied, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

Wanxi smiled and said, "Dare to ask how many people are there in the county king, and where are they stationed?" "The question asked by Wanxi can be big or small, if you let others know that the king of Chenjun transferred troops privately, it is a big crime to bully the king. But when Wanxi asked, he replied without hesitation: "Three thousand soldiers and horses, stationed in Fengming Pass for fifty miles, deep in Xiagu Mountain. ”

"Is the grain and grass ready?" Wanxi asked again.

"There are a lot of cottages near Xiagu Mountain, I sent someone to check, this year's harvest is quite abundant, it is not a problem to buy some at a high price, and when I set off from the capital, I will find a way to arrange people to transport grain along the way." The king of Chenjun was also very distressed about the matter of grain and grass, the grain and grass of three thousand soldiers and horses was not a small number, if it was transported in batches from other places, it would be too eye-catching, and he could only find a way in the local area first.

Wanxi smiled and said, "If I can share the worries of the county king, how should the county king repay me?" ”
