Chapter 423: Adjutant General
Lu Qingrong was embarrassed.
I saw that she nodded again and again, promising that she would definitely put away those dowry paintings.
After a long time, she has long been accustomed to falling asleep with someone, and occasionally alone, it is really difficult to sleep.
She was afraid that Jiang Xuan would really go to the study and stay for a few months.
Jiang Xuan looked at her eagerness, he didn't know how happy he was, and he nodded his head.
Lu Qingrong relieved himself and asked casually: "Then why didn't you come back to eat in the morning?" ”
As soon as the words came out, Lu Qingrong felt a little awkward.
In the past, she would never deliberately ask Jiang Xuan's whereabouts.
just learned that she was pregnant, and the willfulness that followed caught her a little off guard.
Lu Qingrong secretly laughed.
Jiang Xuan replied seriously: "Blame me for not making it clear, it was Jiang Ling who came over in the morning, and I saw that he hadn't eaten yet, so I left him to eat with him." The little maid who came to pass the word also saw him, and I thought she would call you back. ”
How did he know that the little maid was first frightened enough by Lu Qingrong's words, and after trembling in front of Jiang Xuan, she was like being pardoned. The ups and downs of the feeling made her unable to remember anything, and she didn't mention the fact that there were guests in the study when she came back.
"Then she passed the word in front of Jiang Ling?" Lu Qingrong was slightly annoyed, she didn't know that there were others in Jiang Xuan's study.
"Not really!" Jiang Xuan laughed at himself, "It's as if he didn't hear it, I'm afraid that he can't laugh anymore!" ”
Lu Qingrong blamed himself even more: "It's me who is bad, I don't know ......"
Jiang Xuan's fingers lightly pressed against her lips. blocked her back words.
Soon put his hand down again, and said softly: "What does it have to do with you!" If you want to blame me, I made you angry first. ”
Lu Qingrong couldn't help but have a sour nose. I wondered if he was coaxing himself like this because he was pregnant......
Jiang Xuan immediately saw the clue, and simply told her the reason why Jiang Ling came over today, and finally didn't forget to add: "So you don't have to worry, I was exaggerating just now." Maybe he really didn't hear it, after all, he had been thinking about Mobei. ”
Lu Qingrong was no longer entangled, and instead sighed: "I didn't expect it." He also has the ambition to fight on the battlefield, which I think is a good fit! Over the years, he has stayed in Mobei longer than in the capital. ”
"That's right." Jiang Xuan smiled and added, "I'm afraid that he has little hope of making it." You know that, too. Someone tried their best to get Cui Yan back. The replacement is certainly ready. ”
"I know that I know, but I've also thought about this these days, and on the side of An Lebo, I can't imagine that there is anyone close to me who can take on this responsibility!" Lu Qingrong was very puzzled.
Jiang Xuan inadvertently glanced in the direction of Feng Yuan......
Maybe I guessed wrong, I don't know.
Jiang Xuan only said: "Although it is more difficult to take command, Jiang Ling said that it is okay to follow as a deputy general, so it will come." Maybe there's some hope. ”
Of course, Jiang Xuan was very worthless for him. But for the sake of the overall situation, he hopes that the situation in Mobei can be calmed down as soon as possible.
Lu Qingrong was surprised: "He didn't even know who was in charge, so he dared to make such a decision?" ”
Jiang Xuan said: "Jiang Ling is a smart person, what we can guess, he can also guess." Come to think of it, he has his own plans. ”
Lu Qingrong didn't seem to understand: "But we didn't guess who it was!" In case the boss is a wine bag and rice bag who is idle all day long, and the emperor orders him to be a deputy general, he can't regret it if he wants to! ”
Jiang Xuan hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Eighty percent, it's Jiang Ke." ”
"What?!"
Lu Qingrong was about to jump up, feeling incredulous: "Won't it?" In order to steal the merit, Mrs. Wu didn't even want her son's life? Besides, the emperor can't agree to it! ”
"I'm afraid the emperor has been persuaded a long time ago." Jiang Xuan was helpless, "For many years, the emperor really wanted to revive the prestige of the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion. The emperor once said in front of me that he originally hoped to send me to Mobei to capture Satosheng again, but he was worried that it would be overkill, and the front-line officers and soldiers would be noisy, and the grass and trees would be soldiers, which would backfire. In and out of the words, there is a trust in the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion. ”
Halfway through speaking, Jiang Xuan paused, and then told the truth: "Actually, the emperor mentioned Jiang Ke at that time, but I blocked him back, saying that he was still young and didn't know anything about the art of war. ”
"Then the emperor should always believe you, right?" Lu Qingrong couldn't figure it out for himself.
"I'm afraid not." Jiang Xuan's premonition at that time was very bad, "The emperor looked disapplieving, thinking that I was avoiding my relatives." It seems that someone must have promoted Jiang Ke in front of the emperor before and said something exaggerated. ”
Lu Qingrong finally heard the clue.
Originally, I thought it was ridiculous, but recalling that back then, just to use the banner of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion, the emperor was able to send the Marquis of Jingyuan to lead a large army to the northwest to quell the rebellion, and was almost wiped out by the whole army, and after returning to the capital, he fell ill again. In the past two years, Marquis Jingyuan's health has become more and more poor, and Jingchun Hall has become more quiet.
Even when Jiang Xuan conquered Mobei, he was not sure in advance.
Although Jiang Xuan returned victorious in the end, it could not hide the emperor's reckless move to catch ducks on the shelves.
If Jiang Ke is really chosen this time, who knows if he can be as triumphant as Jiang Xuan or as Marquis Jingyuan......
"This is all Mrs. Wu's plan?" Lu Qingrong asked again.
"That's for sure. Jiang Ke has been an idealess since he was a child, he only knows that following behind Mrs. Wu, he is only promised, where can he be up to this great task! Mrs. Wu is also obsessed, and she regards leading the troops to fight as child's play, and her father's painful lesson can't stop her eagerness to grab the credit! ”
For some reason, after listening to Jiang Xuan's words, Lu Qingrong always seemed to feel a little strange about his evaluation of Jiang Ke.
Jiang Ke, is he really out of ideas......
The next day, Jiang Xuan's guess was confirmed.
The holy decree has been issued, and Jiang Ke, the deputy commander of the Beicheng Terracotta Division of the Five Cities and Horses, made Jiang Ke the chief officer of the Mobei Army, and set off for Mobei on the same day to replace the Hou Shizi of Wuding.
Cui Yan, the prince of Wuding, and the deputy general of Yiying, returned to Beijing immediately after the handover, and there must be no mistakes.
As for the adjutant general accompanying Jiang Ke, there is also a conclusion.
Even if Jiang Ling didn't seek to steal credit, he was willing to be a deputy general if he couldn't become a commander, but he was still not selected by the emperor.
In the holy decree, Jiang Ling's name could not be found at all.
The adjutant general of the army is Lu Chengjie, a new science and technology jinshi.
When Lu Qingrong heard the news, he was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
Jiang Xuan was far less surprised than her.
chose Lu Chengjie as the deputy general, and what calculations they made was obvious to them. (To be continued.) )
