Volume 1 The Towering Great Day Chapter 71 The red sleeves of the painting hall leaned on the clear heart
Seeing Xiu Zhao's thoughtful look, Mu Changan didn't know that he was recalling the past, and she was still angry when he was still angry because she said that she didn't want him to take care of Fang Ge.
So she simply looked directly at the young general, and said directly without avoiding the sharp edge of his body.
"There are some things that I shouldn't do, not to mention that I am not the third prince, nor have I ever been ranked in the ninth state, and I can't do anything about talent and wisdom."
After a long time, Xiu Zhao responded in vain, looking as if he had listened to it, but as if he hadn't heard what she said at all.
"You're pretty self-aware."
As soon as this sentence is said, it can be understood.
At least Bai He's eyebrows frowned slightly after hearing this.
However, Mu Changan's eyebrows widened for a while when she heard this, although she didn't quite understand why Xiu Zhao was suddenly annoyed with her, but she couldn't be more familiar with him talking like this.
This is the state that the two of them have been accustomed to since they met.
In the past, Mu Changan always provoked Xiu Zhao's anger, and then as long as he mocked her intentionally or unintentionally, it meant that this matter was over and completely over.
After that, the two of them will not talk about the same thing again.
At this time, the county lord of Chang'an had already understood the compromise that the young general had not said directly, so her voice was full of laughter.
"Ah Zhao, don't worry."
She said.
But I saw that the young general, who had never sunny, heard her words, and looked even more depressed.
Xiu Zhao said angrily, "I have nothing to worry about." ”
After that, he quickly got up and said to Chang'an, "I'll go back to the house first." ”
With that, he walked to the door.
When he was about to walk to the door, the young general finally turned around and threw down a sentence, "If you have something, remember to come to me." He turned and strode away.
In and out of the words, he was full of reassurance and helplessness for her.
When the Major General had already gone far away, and Ai Jia, who was outside the door, closed the door again, Bai He spoke, "Major General Xiu cares about you very much. ”
After listening to Bai He's words, Mu Changan raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Bai He for a long time before he replied slowly, "He has always been like this." ”
Every word is full of warmth.
Xiu Zhao looked like an excellent talker at first glance, but after getting close to him, he knew that he was really a bad person.
And Xiu Zhao's temperament has never been hidden in front of her, he has a temper, and he rarely hides it, he and she have always been sincere to each other.
Naturally, because of such and such reasons, Xiu Zhao's temper in front of her occasionally seemed extremely fickle, and her temper came up at every turn.
And every time Xiu Zhao lost his temper, it was almost because Chang'an annoyed him.
And His Royal Highness the county lord is also a very discerning and intelligent person, so naturally every time he provokes him, he has to speak softly and gently to her brother.
So the occasional sudden bad temper of the major general comes and goes quickly.
Bai He had just heard the "father-in-law" who had just heard it, and his heart was already in the ring, but he had always been a point-to-point character, so the master didn't speak, and he didn't continue to ask.
Just said, "General Zhongyong had a separate visit to the current saint a few days ago, and on the second day of the emperor's Xuan minister's entry into the palace to discuss General Fang's private return to Beijing. ”
Fang Xiu Zhao was here, and Bai He had any concerns, so he didn't say this.
Who knew that Mu Chang'an only bowed his head slightly when he heard it, and he didn't say anything, and he didn't ask anything further, looking like he didn't want to talk about this matter more.
Hakutsuru was such a seeker, so he immediately moved on to another matter.
"It is reported that the king of Yingqu did not bring the queen with him on this trip."
Yingqu country, although the national strength is not strong, but almost all the adults in Yingqu can fight, regardless of men and women.
In addition, Yingqu is located in the southeast of the Dayi Empire, and its domestic terrain is flat, which is especially suitable for military exercises in Yingqu's own country.
In the long run, the cavalry trained by Yingqu is really brave.
It is precisely because of its strong military force, but its domestic products are poor, so looking at the entire Yingqu country, compared with Dayi, it seems to be very backward in all aspects.
Therefore, for the sake of the fertile land, generation after generation of Yingqu people who advocate force have insisted on harming the Central Plains border for hundreds of years, stirring up the panic of the people in the frontier and not being at peace all day long.
During the reign of Renzong, Prince Jiuzhang took command to personally conquer Yingqu, took the head of his regent Xiang Shang, and annihilated hundreds of thousands of elite divisions of Yingqu Wangting, and Yingqu was forced to defeat and sue for peace.
Only then did it finally bring a brief peace that lasted for several years to the southeast of Dayi.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and Renzong gradually began to be suspicious of the palace with different surnames, and all sides of the court were checked and balanced, and the hundreds of officials had different thoughts, and the factions of the families were clearly distinguished.
What's more, during the Tiande period, the emperor on the throne did not establish the prince of the East Palace for a long time, which caused the ambitions of the princes to gradually arise, so that the court battles even spread to the imperial harem.
And because Renzong was afraid of the palace, and at the same time, he wanted to suppress the family at the same time, and he was in the middle and late stages of the reign of Mu Renzong.
It was at this time that the surrounding countries of the empire, which had been severely suppressed and defeated and sued for peace, gradually began to indulge their desire to plunder the vast land and abundant products of the hinterland of the Central Plains.
Therefore, in the thirteenth year of Tiande, the Dayi Empire chose to make peace with Yingqu at the time of internal and external troubles.
Princess Hui'an, the eldest daughter of Emperor Mu during the Tiande period, was chosen by Prince Yingqu, so she resolutely married away from Saiwai and has never returned to the Central Plains so far.
The gentle and elegant princess Hui'an married the then prince of Yingqu, Hu Yankang.
Now Hu Yankang has succeeded to the throne and become the king of Yingqu, the former crown princess, the eldest princess of the Dayi Empire, has also become the queen of Yingqu today.
"Big sister will be back." Mu Changan replied to him softly.
Although to Hakuzuru, it sounded more like a promise that he didn't know what it came from.
So he just asked, "I have already sent people to guard near the Amber River, and if there is any other movement in the country, they will report it back as soon as possible." ”
Amber River was originally known as Yinjiang, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the first emperor personally changed the name of Amber River on the way back to Beijing for the first time in the south.
Moreover, this Amber River is the dividing line between the northeast and southwest of the Great Yi Empire, passing through eighteen main cities and counties such as Jinling City, Langya County, Shengjing City, Xunyang City, and Yuzhang County.
"Whatever happens at the border, remember not to ignore it."
"Yes!"
The meaning of Mu Chang'an's words is to let people stare at the movements of the border cities of the Great Yi Empire.
Although the white crane didn't know what to do, he immediately responded.
If you follow the thoughts in your heart, Bai He actually thinks that most of the lords or princes of the barbarian countries have already come to Beijing to worship at this time, and there will definitely be no movement on the border.
After all, as long as the countries do not want to replace their kings for the time being, the garrisons of the countries in the four realms of the empire will inevitably only stand still.
In the four realms of Dayi, there were four main generals in the past dynasties.
The west side is Jia'an Pass, guarded by the Rong family Erlang in the past dynasties, leveling the city, that is, the place of Rong Wangfu Sangzi.
To the east is Zhangye Pass, Dingrong City, that is, the place where the main general of the eastern border discusses the arrangement of troops and issues military orders when defending against the enemy.
Next to Dingrong City is Anquan, which is the place of Sangzi of the descendants of Anwangfu.
Because of the eastern border of Dayi, it was first ordered by the first emperor to be divided into the sons of the Anwang Mansion of the past dynasties.
The south was the fief of Prince Gong's Mansion at the earliest, but Prince Gong's Mansion had already handed over the military power and lived in Shengjing for generations.
Therefore, after the Li family, the Huinan City in Jianyang Pass was ruled by the sons of the Mu royal family in all dynasties.
The first person stationed in the north of Juyongguan was the Xuanyuan clan, and later when the emperor was happy, Prince Rui threatened to clear the side of the monarch, and raised troops from the fiefdom of Handan, all the way through the pass and beheaded the generals, and was once invincible.
Later, after King Rui defeated the imperial city, the emperor issued an order to garrison the northern border with the Fang clan for generations.
Later, Princess Rongchen, who was still Princess Huining at that time, entered Yanbei, and then brought all forces to live in Yanbei.
It's just that there's one thing that's very strange and a little incomprehensible.
Emperor Xi personally said in the court that the Fang clan must be the descendants of the Fang family who have been stationed in Yongguan for generations, and the young general of the Fang family and the current head of the Fang family cannot stay in the north at the same time.
Since the founding of the Mu Empire, under the influence of the founding emperor, the descendants of the Mu family have paid special attention to the distinction between the descendants and the descendants.
The royal family and nobles are still like this, up and down, and in the long run, although the entire Dayi Empire can be said to be more and more open to the people, and the culture is more and more diverse.
But there is one thing that has never changed, and that is the difference between the two generations.
This is embodied in the fact that Emperor Mu has a characteristic that once the marquis and other hereditary positions are divided, he must be strictly decreed in the holy decree to inherit the title by the descendants, otherwise he will not inherit the title.
Moreover, throughout the dynasties before the Great Day, there has never been a precedent for a family of military generals to be allowed to hold hereditary positions by those in power.
However, the successive monarchs of the Great Yi Dynasty were able to carry forward such a tradition without hesitation.
Even when Renzong, who was very suspicious, was alive, there were endless methods to suppress the big families, but he was very tolerant to those military generals.
This is the case with the cultivators, and so is the Fang family.
What is rare is that whether it is the Xiu family or the Fang family, the descendants of the past generations have all produced the talents of generals and handsomes, and almost never produced unworthy descendants who insulted the prestige of the family.
In this way, there are Rong Jiajun and Silver Armor Cavalry guarding the frontier in the west of the Dayi Empire, which is naturally safe.
There is also a prince of the clan in the south, Prince Jiuzhang, the son of Emperor Wu, who guards it all the year round, and he is famous for his stable military heart and the border city of unity between the army and the people.
Naturally, the East was also guarded by the generals stationed at the border personally appointed by the emperor, and the guards of Zhangye in the past dynasties were all confidants of the emperors.
It's just that the ability of the eastern border guards to arrange troops is far from comparable to that of the main generals of the second southwest realm, and at the time of crisis, only the loyal and brave generals in Shengjing City led the army thousands of miles to help.
The northern border guards are a family of military generals in the Great Yi, a loyal Fang family.
It was only because of the period before the Holy Emperor ascended the throne and the period when the court was unstable after he ascended the throne, Rong Chen went to Yanbei City.
At that time, some of the forces of the Holy Ying Emperor, who was still the fourth prince, were also installed in Yanbei City.
