Chapter 5: Find a helper

"Brother-in-law! Thank you so much! At a critical time, you can only rely on your own people! ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to say thank you! In fact, there is not much I can do to help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, at most I can only try my best to ensure His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to Tokyo safely, and I really can't help with the counterinsurance! ”

Cao Sheng smiled bitterly.

Although he is the general of the left guard, he is a lord, he has no real power, and he is also stared at by the imperial history, he can do too little, at most is to protect Zhao Huan closely, saving Zhao Huan from losing his life.

Zhao Huan's biological mother, Queen Wang, has a total of two children: son Zhao Huan and daughter Zhao Jinnu.

Zhao Jinnu is three years younger than Zhao Huan, and he married Cao Sheng not long ago, and Cao Sheng became Zhao Huan's cheap brother-in-law. Cao Sheng is one year older than Zhao Huan, so the two are almost the same age, and they usually have a good relationship.

In addition, Cao Sheng is affectionate and righteous, and his wife Zhao Jinnu are now like glue, and today he saw his eldest brother Zhao Huan being bullied in the court, as a representative of the Xungui faction, of course he couldn't stand it, and immediately stood up and spoke up.

Coming out of the Zichen Palace, Cao Sheng said goodbye to Zhao Huan and returned home, and told his wife Zhao Jinnu about the events of the early dynasty, and Zhao Jinnu was also angry about the injustice his brother encountered.

"My father is eccentric King Yun, so I don't want to let the emperor's brother get into trouble!"

"Shh Cao Sheng hurriedly comforted his wife, "Don't talk nonsense about the emperor in the mansion, our Xungui family is sensitive and easy to be targeted, and the family will be implicated when the time comes." ”

"Then I'll say it too! It's been more than ten years since my mother died, I'm just such a relative, and my eldest brother is also the only one relative, if I don't speak for him, who else can he count on! ”

When Zhao Jinnu said that he was sad, tears appeared in his eyes, which made Cao Sheng feel distressed.

"Beloved wife! Don't worry too much, isn't it time for a husband to protect the prince! Even if you can't win the battle, it's still okay to escape! ”

"Big brother is really, why do you want to suppress bandits? How dangerous! I heard that those grass cowards are very fierce, and they are all cannibals! ”

Zhao Jinnu was still very excited, and after complaining about Zhao Ji, she began to complain about Zhao Huan again, she couldn't figure it out if she wanted to break her head, how could the eldest brother, who had always dared not dare to do anything, suddenly dare to fight Cao Kou!

Is leading troops to fight a war just a joke? Give him a knife, will he dare to cut someone? What can I do?

"Don't blame the prince, he has no choice but now." Cao Sheng explained to his wife, "King Yun is now in power, and almost all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are people who support him, if the prince doesn't do something, I'm afraid he won't be the prince soon." What happened to the deposed princes in history, you know! ”

Cao Sheng's simple words, Zhao Jinnu immediately fell silent.

If the eldest brother is abolished, he will either die, or life is worse than death, and the left and right are not what she wants to see.

Worry, helplessness, and anger made Zhao Jinnu's beautiful and refined face frown, and he lost his former demeanor.

Cao Sheng sighed, he really didn't want to see his wife like this, he was very distressed!

I can't say, I'm going to fight hard this time!

"Don't worry! Although it is difficult for our noble family to make a difference, they are all sincere people who serve the country, seeing that the war in Liangshan is not going well, and the prince is not afraid of hardships and dangers, he will not sit idly by! I'm going to ask the elders to see if there is a suitable person to pull over and help, after all, the emperor promised to use the Xiang Army! ”

"Husband! You're so nice! Big brother, I'll leave it to you......"

Zhao Jinnu immediately burst into laughter, and his husband was still reliable at the critical moment!

Cao Sheng comforted his wife again, and the little couple kept warm for a long time, and it was not until noon that Cao Sheng went out to run for his eldest brother.

One person is looking for death, and the whole family suffers, and there is no way.

……

In the forbidden military academy, Zhao Huan was carefully selecting the person he wanted, while Yang Jian, Tong Guan and Tan Zhi were staring at him nervously.

Tan Zhi is also a eunuch who controls military power, but his status is below Tong Guan and Yang Jian.

The main way they control the forbidden army is to install henchmen, as long as they keep their henchmen, they can maintain their supremacy in the forbidden army.

If Zhao Huan forcibly picked up their henchmen, although it would not let their military power fall, it would seriously damage their existing structure, and at least they would have to go to great lengths to retrain other henchmen.

Therefore, at this time, I am afraid of this crown prince, worried that he will retaliate against this matter, and if they don't obey at that time, it will be a protest, and this kind of trivial matter cannot be made in front of Emperor Daojun.

Zhao Huan had already noticed their expressions, and he had guessed what they were nervous about, and he was a little unimpressed.

As far as their henchmen are concerned, they are entrusted to the positions on the back door one by one, and there may not be ordinary soldiers who can be used to pull them out, and this prince is not rare!

"Two lieutenants! Prince Ben is not very familiar with these forbidden soldiers, why don't you have two lieutenants to do it for you? ”

Zhao Huan looked at Tong Guan, Yang Jian, and Tan Zhi with a smile, the three old foxes were surprised and embarrassed by Zhao Huan's heart, and it was very strange why Zhao Huan's temperament suddenly changed.

Of course, the main thing for the three of them at the moment is to be happy.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looks down on the three of us, the slaves and maids must pick out the five hundred forbidden troops with the strongest martial arts for His Royal Highness the Prince!"

After Tong Guan finished speaking, the three great eunuchs hurriedly gathered their henchmen and selected five hundred of the most disobedient thorns.

"Wait!"

Zhao Huan suddenly stopped the three of them, which made the three of them lift their hearts again, and they were very worried that Zhao Huan would regret it.

"Don't be nervous! I just suddenly remembered a few people recommended by Cao Yuma, you give me those people, and pick the rest! ”

Hearing Zhao Huan say this, the three of them raised their hearts even higher.

"Who does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want?"

The three eunuchs asked in horror.

"Don't worry! It's all petty officials! ”

Zhao Huan chuckled, and then handed Tong Guan a list he had written:

Kaifeng Wang Yu, Security Army Liu Yanqing, Suide Han Shizhong, Deshun Army Wu Jue Wu Xuan Brothers, Qinzhou Liu Zhongwu.

Call! OK!

When the three eunuchs saw it, they were relieved, not only did they have no worries on their faces, but they all showed strange smiles.

"Whew! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has good eyesight! ”

Yang Jian couldn't help but boast, "These six people are all first-class elites in the forbidden army, and the slave will send someone to find out the six of them!" ”

Scold! It turns out that none of these six people and the three major eunuchs know each other, which is good news!

Zhao Huan's face was expressionless and silent, and when he had acquiesced, the three eunuchs immediately sent someone to find these six people in the forbidden army, and someone came to report after about two quarters of an hour:

The commander Wang Yu, the team general Wu Jue, and the sergeant Wu Ling have all been found and are in the forbidden army; Han Shizhong is a subordinate of Liu Yanqing, the head of Yanyan Road, and now both of them are in Yanyan Road; Liu Zhongwu was the envoy of the Luchuan Army, and he was not in the forbidden army.

Wipe!

Liu Yanqing and Liu Zhongwu turned out to be local generals!

Embarrassed!
