Chapter 698: Surprise

After this battle, the morale of the Jiangnan generals increased greatly, and the imperial court folded two lieutenant generals in a row, and the emperor was furious, and then two generals were recruited from nowhere to replace them. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

These two people are even worse than the previous two, relying on the emperor's personal faction, not listening to orders or speaking, and dispatching troops at will.

No matter how powerful Li Zongze is, he can't withstand these idiots.

Besides, Shen Zhuo, that day Li Zongze wanted to beat him up for acting without authorization, but when he finished dealing with the two damaged lieutenants and went to look for him again, he heard that he was gone.

The big war was imminent, and he didn't care much, so he had to lead the troops to fight first.

The Jiangnan army was much braver than before, and the army of the imperial court was not vegetarian, so naturally, the two sides were in full swing.

When the army went to war, the navy army naturally did not lag behind, and fought all the way to Liaocheng, and the emperor thought that with the strength of the Liaocheng defenders, it was enough to block the Jiangnan army. Who knows, the prefect of Liaocheng actually opened the city gate and welcomed the Jiangnan army to settle in.

It is the spring of March, the sky is bright, and the green willows by the river are breezing, like a girl dancing.

The army entered the city gate, and at that time, Gao Dongliu was smiling and leading a few officials to greet the Jiangnan army, and the grandson also came, followed by Shen Zhi and Chen Ning, one literary and one martial.

The grandson got off the horse and personally greeted Gao Dongliu, who was busy avoiding it, but he did a great salute to the monarch and the minister.

"The minister Gao Dongliu was entrusted by the first emperor and is willing to assist His Highness." The people behind him also knelt down and said, "I am willing to assist Your Highness!" ”

Zhu Zhanwen stood in the wind, looked at the person kneeling on the ground, and finally said: "Your loyalty, I saw it, and when he returns to the capital one day, he will definitely reward his merits." ”

"Your Highness!"

"Let's get flat!"

Saying that, he personally helped Gao Dongliu up and said, "I said that Chen Yu said that there was a surprise waiting for Lone in Liaocheng, but it turned out that it was Master Gao." ”

Gao Dongliu had a letter with Chen Yu early in the morning, so he naturally knew about it and admired Chen Yu a lot.

"The old minister is ashamed, I heard that Huai'an Mansion won a small victory, and the old minister congratulated His Royal Highness."

Zhu Zhanwen also had a faint pride on his face, and said, "Gu is very grateful to the emperor's grandfather for leaving so many virtuous ministers to Gu. ”

The two people behind him both frowned and bowed their heads, but the corners of their mouths were slightly curved.

Kyoto, in the East Warm Pavilion, was devastated, and even the emperor's favorite inkstone on weekdays was broken in half at this time.

There were several ministers kneeling on the ground, and the eunuch in charge did not dare to say anything.

After a long time, the emperor rubbed his faint head and said gloomily: "Give me an order to investigate, who else is a traitor, you don't have to report it if you find it, you can cut it first and then play!" ”

The leader raised his eyes slightly, pursed his lips and said, "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

At the order, the people of the DPRK and China were panicked, and there were many people who benefited from the fishermen, and even more people who stirred up peace. In short, Kyoto is in chaos.

Xu is has been working too much recently, and the emperor always feels dizzy, and sometimes he has a headache, which makes him extremely irritable.

In the warm pavilion, he rubbed his eyebrows as usual, but in a few months, his eyebrows were pinched out of a purple trace.

"Haven't the children of the clan entered Beijing yet?" He suddenly spoke, which startled the eunuch in charge, and then replied cautiously: "Back to the emperor, I heard that it will be almost there, at most a day or two." ”

"A day or two? It's been more than half a month since my decree was delivered, and they won't be able to do it in a couple of days! ”

Listening to his obviously angry voice, the eunuch in charge immediately knelt down, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

After a while, the emperor seemed to suppress his temper and said: "That's it, pass on my will, and order the old general Qin to set off on the same day, lead 100,000 troops, and help fight in Dezhou." ”

The eunuch in charge immediately agreed, but he was panicked in his heart, the old general Qin was over sixty years old, let him fight, this is no one in the court!

If this continues, it will not be far from the grandson to Kyoto, and at that time, will this imperial city still be the winner?

With a sigh in his heart, he straightened his robe and hurriedly retreated.

In Yangzhou Mansion, the Wu family and Shen Kun had just passed the seventh year, and Xie Chen came to the door with Mrs. Xie.

The white flags in her eyes are just like what she saw when Xie Shuyuan left and she rushed to Xie Chen with her.

At that time, what mood she was in, how many years have passed, I can't remember clearly, I only know that the hatred of these years is still clear.

The Liao family is a junior, so they naturally have to welcome her in, in fact, as in-laws, they have already reported the funeral to the Xie family, but they only came to the door today, which is a little unruly.

Old Madam Xie stood still and looked at the coffin in front of her, although it was still empty, she felt extremely comfortable.

Her daughter's revenge has finally been avenged, and this negative man has finally died, how can she not be happy?

Shen Jingyi lowered her head, and after saluting, she didn't speak again.

Xie Chen went over to put on the incense, and then looked at Old Madam Xie, "Grandmother! ”

She nodded and said, "The old body has a few words to say to Jingyi." ”

Seeing this, Liao arranged for someone to clean up the front hall, invited them in, and went out with the maid himself.

Old Madam Xie sat down, looked at the position of the head in front of her, and asked Shen Jingyi and Xie Chen to sit down facing each other.

"When your mother went, I also arrived just too late, and the mourning hall was not yet today, which shows how much they neglected your mother."

Shen Jingyi vaguely remembered what she said, Gu was still there, she had just given birth to Lin'er at that time, and she didn't want Xie Shuyuan's funeral to be too big, so she suppressed it.

At that time, she was still young, about four years old, and she didn't quite understand what death was. They only knew that there was a coffin in front of her, and she wanted to kneel beside the coffin, and they all said that her mother slept in it, and if she was disobedient, she would not play with her in the future.

Then, Mrs. Xie came over, and she couldn't remember exactly what happened.

"Your mother is famous, and since she was a child, there have been matchmakers who have been busy talking about marriage, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she has stepped on the threshold, but I married her to Kyoto. It's my fault, if it weren't for that, she wouldn't have died, leaving you alone. ”

"Grandmother doesn't have to be like this, Mother has never blamed you, she blames, just a person."

When Old Madam Xie heard her salutation, her cloudy eyes lit up, and she nodded: "It's good not to blame, it's good not to blame." ”

Shen Jingyi raised her eyes to look at her, but she was taken aback. However, I haven't seen her for a few months, and Mrs. Xie has not only lost a lot of weight, but her face is not as good as before.

What had been a silver thread had become dull, like, like ......

She looked at Xie Chen, her eyes were inquiring, but she saw him purse his lips and slightly aside.

Her heart trembled, she took a deep breath and said, "Grandmother's face is not good, but she is not feeling well?" ”

Old Madam Xie smiled, "When people are old, everything will come out, and they were indeed sick a few days ago, but now they are all better." ”

said that everything was fine, but Shen Jingyi didn't look like that. There was a faint uneasiness in her heart, which was somewhat similar to her grandmother before she died.
