Looking at the green branches in the distance, Yulan's heart was like a dark cloud, extremely depressed. She thought that Yuxin's life was uncomfortable, but she didn't expect her to have such a difficult time. She has never had sex with the prince, and the prince's relationship with her is also very cold.

It stands to reason that as the crown princess, she is also the master of Yuqing Palace, and she should be in charge of the palace affairs of Yuqing Palace. But the prince refused to support her, and the servants below were very disobedient. These days, she has stumbled when she takes over the power of Yuqing Palace, coupled with the special status of Yuqing Palace, many servants are still rewarded by the emperor himself, Yuxin, the princess, and they have added some lack of confidence in front of them, for these things, she doesn't know how much idleness she has suffered in the past ten days, and how many grievances she has suffered.

Yulan sighed secretly in her heart, she felt that Yuxin was not suitable to be this princess from the beginning, and now there is no side concubine and concubine by the prince's side, just the slave will make her anxious, and in the future, the palace fight will be unfolded, how can Yuxin live!

Come back to see her in a few days, and persuade her to give her an idea!

Yulan packed up her mood and came to the gate of Jingyang Palace. As soon as the palace maid in front of the door went in to report, after a while, Ye Minzhao personally greeted her. In the main hall of Yulan, I saw Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui is as warm and gentle as ever, making people feel like a spring breeze, only saying something homely to her, but Yulan Concubine Hui is not as relaxed as when she gets along with the little prince, and she gossiped with her carefully for a while, and got up to say goodbye after drinking a bowl of Biluochun. Ye Minzhao personally sent her out of the palace gate, and Yulan turned back to Yang's mansion.

Ye Minzhao thought about it in his heart, and in the end he didn't say a few words to Yulan, so he had to sigh and go back to the palace. Now in this situation, if he wants to go out of the palace in micro-service, he doesn't have to think about it anymore.

At this time, the Xie family was in chaos. In the main house, Xie Zhiyuan, dressed in military uniform, knelt at Geng's feet, his face full of heroism. Geng's face was full of anger, and his hands trembled: "You rebel, who told you to make your own decisions?" Datong is in chaos, why don't you listen to your mother? How can you rest assured that your mother? As he spoke, tears flowed.

Originally, according to Geng's thoughts, the Xie family should have decided on the marriage with the Yang family at this time, and in a few months Xie Zhiyuan will be able to marry Yulan, and then participate in this year's martial arts exam.

Who knew that the queen mother died, the marriage could not be concluded, and the spring festival was canceled. A few days ago, because of the urgency of the war in the northwest, seeing that a big battle was about to be fought, the Ministry of War issued a conscription order, and the twelve regiments and battalions in the capital were expanded. In the past few years, he has practiced martial arts diligently, and on the other hand, he has learned the art of war, and he is determined to be a hero like Wei Qinghuo Quai.

Now that the war is in the ascendant, it is the time for him to serve the country, Xie Zhiyuan's heart is hot, he is also a man of action, without saying a word, he immediately asked his father. Ask his father to help him get a military position, even if it is a military commander, and then send him to the northwest, he wants to fight the barbarians and make contributions.

The Xie family's family style is rigorous, if it is a change of usual, Xie Zhiyuan makes such a request, Lord Xie will definitely beat him out of the study, but now is different from the past, although Lord Xie is worried about his son, he still appreciates his ambition, a good man stands up to the sky, and he can't come out of a real famous general on paper, Lord Xie has a heart, and remembers that he has a distant nephew who is in the Military Department of the Military Election Division, and he can just do this.

As a result, before the matter was done, Geng learned the news. Geng has always been virtuous, respectful and obedient to her husband, and takes good care of her son, and never cares about external affairs, but this time when she heard that the old man was going to send his son to the front line to fight behind his back, it was immediately like a powder keg lit. Geng's attitude is extremely tough, the Xie family has no heirs, he gave birth to three sons, and there is only this one to stand, how can he be willing to let him go to the front line to fight now?

She is a motherly heart, but Xie Zhiyuan has made up his mind, Lord Xie is also a principled and bottom-line person, on the one hand, he comforted his wife, on the other hand, he did not give up to the Ministry of War to activities, at this time the Ministry of War is worried that no one is available, Xie Zhiyuan is a real martial artist, very ordered to come down, Xie Zhiyuan was appointed as the deputy Qianhu of the left guard of Datong, and he will go to Shanxi to take up his post on the same day. Now the battle clouds are dense on the same line of Xuanfu, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers of the Abrupt Khan Zuoyan Chen, and war may break out at any time.

Xie Zhiyuan was very happy to get the letter of appointment from the imperial court, and he was about to set off, but at this time, he couldn't hide it from his mother anyway, so he had to go to the inner courtyard to resign with his mother.

Sure enough, Geng's family immediately burst into tears when he heard this, and Xie Zhiyuan's father also sat down at this time, and when he saw his wife like this, he also began to persuade: "Since the child has such ambitions, why can't we be parents to fulfill him!" What's more, Yuan'er is seventeen years old this year, and he is an adult, so it's time to make a contribution. Since you have chosen the path of military attaché, it is inevitable to fight on the battlefield......"

Geng cried: "Master, I am such a son, my son has been raising him for so many years, and he has never left me a step, you sent him to the battlefield at such a young age, how can you bear to call me a mother?" It is to take the road of military attaché, and in the future, his son will be admitted to the juren, and he will be awarded at least a third- or fourth-grade general, and at that time there is a large army to protect him, even if he goes to the battlefield, he is much safer, but now he ...... "At this time, she even hated her husband.

When Lord Xie heard this, his face was a little unpleasant; "According to what you say, everyone must be completely safe before they dare to go to the battlefield, then won't my Da Chu have no available generals?" Geng has always been reasonable, but when it comes to his son, he is a little entangled.

Xie Zhiyuan hurriedly interrupted: "Mother, it's not right for your son to hide that you are a son!" But the matter has come to this point, the letter of appointment and the transfer order of the Ministry of War have come down, and the son has to go if he doesn't go. Thou hast fulfilled thy son. My son assures you that he will take care of himself. Wouldn't it be good to wait for his son to make meritorious contributions outside, and come back to marry the girl of the Yang family? "Xie Zhiyuan has seen Yulan, she is so high-profile, and she has a beautiful face and elegant temperament, although Xie Zhiyuan doesn't say it, he has always felt that he is not worthy of others, and this time he is ready to fight for a fame on the battlefield, and there are also factors in this regard.

Geng also knew that the matter had come to this point, and it was useless for her to cry no matter how much she cried, so she carefully told a few words, and seriously helped Xie Zhiyuan take care of the door. Xie Zhiyuan only took two small men with him the next day, and followed the grain transportation team of the military department to Datong to perform his duties.

Geng's three incense sticks a day, only asking for the blessing of the Bodhisattva, the abrupt Khan retreated without a fight, and it was good that this battle could not be fought. A few days later, Geng came to see the eldest lady with gifts of medicinal herbs.

The eldest lady is still sick, Yulan returned to Yang Mansion to report the eldest lady is also good news and not bad news, the eldest lady got the news □of Yuxin and relaxed, and her condition was better. The eldest lady didn't care much about the Xie family, politely condoled a few words, and praised Xie Zhiyuan's lofty ambitions.

Geng's also saw at this time that the eldest lady was not very interested in Yulan's concubine, but she had seen Yulan a few times during these days, and she was satisfied with it once she saw her, she didn't care much about the eldest lady's attitude, as long as she was willing to marry her daughter into the Xie family.

After chatting a few more words, Geng got up to say goodbye, visited the old lady, and then went to the fifth wife and Chunxuan. The fifth wife is lying on the bed to raise the fetus, a few days ago the fifth wife went to the palace to cry, and when she came back, she shouted that her stomach hurt, and scared the five old men so much that half of the three souls and seven spirits flew away, and immediately invited the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat, and the entire Yang Mansion was like a great enemy.

After drinking the prescription, the doctor prescribed it, and the fetus gradually stabilized. The fifth master put his heart in his stomach at this time, because in less than three months, he still raised her like a giant panda. Although the old lady was sick, she still sent people to ask three times a day.

When Geng saw the fifth wife, she was flushed, and her face looked a little rounder. Geng asked about the situation of the fifth wife, and told her about Xie Zhiyuan. The fifth wife couldn't help but comfort her: "Ambition is not old, my cousin has this ambition at a young age, and he will become a great weapon in the future, and my aunt should be happy for him!" Besides, the chapter in front of me can be fought, and it can't be fought! ”

The son is gone, and the Geng family has now accepted his fate. Finding someone to talk to is just to solve her worries, and she also knows the relationship between Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yulan, and telling Mrs. Wu is equivalent to telling Mrs. Yulan, so she deliberately went to Mrs. Fifth to talk about it. After a short sit, he left.

In the afternoon, Yulan came to see Mrs. Five, and Mrs. Five told her about it, and she was also full of praise for Xie Zhiyuan. Yulan listened to it, and also had a little appreciation for Xie Zhiyuan. A motivated husband is better than a muddy life. On the way back to Lujingzhai, the two maids were worried about their future uncle.

In the evening, Guozijian went to school to Chengzong to visit his sister, and he heard about Xie Zhiyuan out of nowhere, and he also talked to Yulan. He praised the future brother-in-law's approach, saying; "Light life and death, great righteousness, Fang is the true character of a man, and the husband should be bloody and the horse leather shroud in the city of Xinjiang has won the name in history! My wife found a good family for my sister this time! He hadn't commented on the marriage before, but it was the first time he had said so.

Yulan smiled: "The Great Chu military system has always been based on civil and military systems, and in the future, if you become a high-ranking official like the trilateral general system, you can also command thousands of troops and horses to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Chengzong Zhengse said: "There should be such a day!" ”

The funeral of the Queen Mother has come to an end, and the streets and alleys are talking about the war in the northwest for a while.

It was late, the study room of the Prince of Jin was brightly lit, it was early spring, the cold was unexpectedly steep, but the study windows were all propped up, and the cold air blew in, which made people feel shocked. Ye Yichen brocade robe and jade belt, in front of the bookcase with his backhand, his posture was as tall as a pine, his head hung slightly, his eyes stared at the huge map on the bookcase without blinking, and the expression on his face was extremely grim.

On the big rosewood book case is the map of the geographical situation of the mountains and rivers in the northwest that the military department has just drawn this year, which is extremely precious, and there are only three deputies in the entire military department. One was dedicated to the emperor, the other was in the lobby of the military department, and the latter was unceremoniously taken by Ye Yichen.

Ye Yichen is now a member of the Zhengyi Sect, and he is a member of the royal family, and he has a military department to lead the troops to fight, but no one knows where Ye Yichen likes it, with his outstanding military exploits and prestige in the government and the opposition, the people in the military department don't even dare to let go of a fart.

Ye Fengqi stood on the other side of the case, but he didn't look at the map on the case, but looked at Ye Yichen's expression. Ye Fengqi has frequently traveled between the two palaces in the past few days, so many years of operation, invested a lot of money, the intelligence network in his hands has been all over the inside and outside the Guan, these days the intelligence outside the Guanxi snowflakes are flying, there are special intelligence professionals to sort out the intelligence together, and he brought the information to the Jin Wangfu to hand over to Ye Yichen. It can be said that he knows the movements of the abrupt khan more clearly than the emperor or even the military department.

Ye Fengqi said excitedly: "Jiang Yue has arrived in Shaanxi, and now the governor has set up Xi'an Mansion, and he has fought steadily, and he has won a few battles." When the news came back to Beijing, the whole court and the central government were naturally jubilant. Ye Fengqi was a little worried about him, afraid that the kind of situation that Ye Yichen said last time would really happen. “…… It's just that Zuo Yan's movements are very suspicious, and he has gathered people so far, and he has not launched an offensive against the Xuanda defense line! This kind of patience makes people feel more and more suspicious! ”

Ye Yichen looked at the arrow moving on the left side of the map and pondered for a long time. Ye Fengqi said with a puzzled expression; "Zuo Yan dispatched about j□j0,000 troops and horses this time, which is almost all the forces that can be mobilized on the grassland. But he didn't move! Only Xuanfu is on the same line, why is this? ”

You must know that the Lu Dao march and fight pay attention to one drum and then three times and exhaustion, always leading his subordinates to run around outside the pass, as if giving Da Chu a chance to gather troops to beat them all, and I don't know what medicine Lu Dao sells in his gourd!

Ye Yichen frowned, he couldn't figure it out. Zuo Yanneng is a strong man who sits firmly in the position of Khan on the grassland, and he is definitely not an easy person to deal with. Knowing that he had a conspiracy, but he couldn't think of what the conspiracy was, Ye Yichen was also a little impatient in his heart.

Ye Yichen thought for a while and asked, "How about my troop transfer?" ”

Ye Fengqi's memory is excellent, he stretched out his finger and pointed on the map, "Shandong has mobilized Dengzhou Wei, Aoshan Wei, Lingshan Wei, and Da Songwei; Henan has mobilized ......" in detail, and then concluded: "Most of the army of the northern guard station was transferred, and the 48 guards of the Beijing army were also transferred to 32 guard ......"

Ye Yichen pondered for a moment, but his eyes turned to the northeast direction, and he pondered for a long time: "Is there any movement in the Northeast Jurchen?" ”

"Didn't receive a message!" After that, his expression changed and he said: "Are you worried that the Jurchens will take advantage of the situation and brazenly send troops?" Now that most of our troops are contained by Zuo Yan, if the Jurchens take the opportunity to break through the Liaodong defense line, and there are only 12 guards left in the Beijing Division, wouldn't it be very dangerous? ”

Ye Yichen nodded solemnly: "That's right!" If Tuwu and Jurchen really leave behind a hundred years of grievances and unite together, there is civil turmoil inside, and strong enemies are waiting outside, Da Chu will be really dangerous! ”

Ye Fengqi was really frightened at this moment, and said as if comforting himself: "The Jurchen and Abrupt Conquest have also been fighting for a hundred years, and Zuo Yan's father died in the hands of the Jurchens." The steppe people have heavy grievances, and they will definitely not form an alliance! ”

"I hope so!" Ye Yichen said lightly: "There are no eternal friends in the world, and there are no eternal enemies. For the sake of eternal interests, there is nothing impossible for Tuwu and Jurchen to form a secret alliance. Now they are both short of food and people, and both of these can be obtained from Da Chu...... Let's adjust the focus of intelligence from tomorrow, and we must pay close attention to the movements of the Jurchens. I will hand over a sign early tomorrow morning to ask the emperor to strengthen the defense in the northeast. The Jurchen threat must not be ignored! "Although Ye Yichen looks down on the emperor, the righteousness comes first, and the ancestral foundation is the most important, and those personal grievances can only be put aside temporarily.
