Chapter 33: Quick Battle!
In this world, people should always fight for themselves, especially those like you who have no heirs, and they should plan ahead. Hou Guifei waved her hand to stop Du Yingzi, who wanted to interject, "Even if you have an heir in the future, what can a young child fight for you." β
Du Yingzi shook her head, wanting to shake out these voices in her head, but the concubine's voice just lingered.
"Haha, tell the Queen? Who in this palace doesn't know that I am incompatible with her, do you need to talk more? It's you, you can figure out what you want. To be honest, those who rushed to carry shoes to the palace were lined up at the gate of the city, and the palace did not have to be you, but the palace just couldn't see the queen happy. This palace has no other skills, but what you promise others will do, as long as you promise this palace to go to the queen to make eyeliner for this palace, when my son is successful, you will be a concubine, and you can move out of the palace to live. β
It was this last promise that made Du Yingzi completely shaken, freedom is something that every woman who enters the palace cannot have, even if she helps the queen more, it is impossible to give her such a reward with the queen's temperament.
In these days when Du Yingzi was entangled, the previous dynasty reached an agreement on sending troops to suppress Haikou, but there was a dispute over the choice of the coach. The prince's faction recommended Du Anhou as the coach, while the Yipin general's faction opposed it in order to help the second prince win the position of coach. Da Sima was in charge of the Chinese army, and this time Pinghai Kou used local foreign troops, so he stood aside and did not make a discussion. The captain was in charge of the soldiers and horses in the world, but he never spoke up, so the argument became more and more intense.
The crown prince advocates the way of loyalty and forgiveness, maintains the theory of 'compassion, everyone has it', and treats the courtiers who have made mistakes with a heart of benevolence and righteousness, not to mention that Du Xiao is not Du Anhou, the prince thinks that if Du Anhou is given a chance at this time, he will be more loyal to the emperor, and this matter will also be conducive to the Jin Kingdom to recruit wise men. The general's faction opposed it, believing that the imperial power was supreme, and the Du family had violated the imperial power and provoked the majesty of the royal family, and must be severely punished to set an example.
Just when the stalemate was at a stalemate, Sima Yan wanted to come out to help the fire, so that Cheng Ningqian could accompany the army, but as soon as he had an idea, he heard Emperor Wu of Jin interrupt them and asked if there were other candidates for Taiwei. Taiwei pondered for a moment and replied, "Baekje Castle is a good place." As soon as he heard what he said, the prince's faction and the general's faction were a little anxious, and they fought for a long time, but they didn't expect to be thrown out by the captain halfway. Baekje City is close to the sea, adjacent to Fengzhou, when it comes to naval warfare, Jichang must be more experienced, just when they were thinking about how to deal with it, they heard Taiwei say: "But killing chickens with a knife, now that no one in my Jin country dares to go to the sea, these pirates will definitely risk going ashore to loot, Pingbei General Duan has rich experience in land warfare, and he is the commander." But I am a little young now, training more young generals is a top priority, the second prince is talented, can be the deputy marshal, if the second prince also begins to fight, presumably there will be more young children of the family inspired to join the army. β
Although these words made the second prince miss the position of commander, it solved the problem of Hou Haofan, the general of the first rank, that is, how to push the second prince out logically, Hou Haofan cast a grateful look at the captain, but the captain ignored it. After the next court, the prince and Hou Haofan both wanted to spy on the Taiwei's tone in the name of gratitude, but unfortunately the Taiwei didn't give them a chance to leave the court. Like him, there was also the Imperial Doctor.
Taiwei and Yushi Dafu arrived at the gate of the palace one after another, and when they were waiting for the carriage, Yushi Dafu came to Taiwei's side and whispered: "My father-in-law is so calculating, hehe." β
The lieutenant glared at him: "What do you mean by this?" β
Doctor Yu Shi proudly raised his head and said: "Father-in-law, you are giving the crown prince and the second prince a favor, for the sake of the in-laws, I advise you not to do what you shouldn't do, eat the king's luck, be loyal to the king, if you are involved in the party struggle, don't blame me for not recognizing your in-laws." β
Taiwei was poked in the center of thought, a little angry, of course he didn't want to get involved in the battle for the throne, but his only son died on the battlefield, and Emperor Wu of Jin deliberately suppressed it, and now the whole family has no one who can hold up the faΓ§ade except for him, he just wants to earn a life for the family. Although he will always be on the side of reunification, who can guarantee what will happen in the future.
Sima Yan looked at the Taiwei and the imperial history, although he didn't understand the Taiwei's intentions, but if there was a rift in the prince's camp, he would be happy to see it. Not long ago, Jiang Weicai tried a lot of effort to persuade him to promote Cheng Ningqian to a military position, but he didn't want the opportunity to suddenly float in front of him. Since ancient times, the prince must not lead troops, otherwise there will be a suspicion of rebellion, Cheng Ningqian is in charge of the army, and the prince's party should not be able to sit still.
After the commander and deputy marshal were set, the day of the expedition was quickly set, and Emperor Wu of Jin repeatedly told him that he must fight quickly, and let him hear the good news before the envoy left, so as to show the prestige of the country, if he was defeated, he would be dealt with according to the military situation and military law. Du An and the second prince took the order and galloped to Fengzhou with a team of guards transferred by the Chinese army.
It didn't take long for the envoys of Daxingguo to arrive, and Emperor Wu of Jin arranged for a few imperial doctors to accompany them. As soon as the news spread, the countries were suspicious of each other, and it was not clear why.
"Bastard!" Jiang Wei had just learned the truth from the spy, kicked over the chair and said hatefully, "If you do it at this time, he is afraid that others will not know that there is internal strife in Daxing State." β
Jiang Xunxue's cousin stood aside, looked helplessly at the chair that was kicked over, and said, 'Good yellow rosewood', and felt Jiang Wei's knife-like eyes. He laughed twice and said: "This Cai Yu is probably in a hurry, and he can't deal with you in Daxingguo, so he chose to do it far away from your sphere of influence, but unfortunately he didn't expect that 'you' in the team was an impostor." β
"Old horseman! Rampant ambition, madness! It's hateful! I thought he would think about Daxing's prestige anyway, but it seems that I was wrong. β
At this time, someone outside the door came to report that a son who called himself 'Gu Xiaoyu' was making a fuss to see Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei was stunned for a moment before he reacted that Jiang Xunxue used his mother's surname for the convenience of travel. Jiang Xunxue stared at him for a while after coming in, and then said, "I'll just say, how can you get hurt so easily, and the person in the palace is not you at all." β
When Jiang Xunxue's cousin heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Have you seen the envoys of Daxing?" β
"Well, I just saw it, the injury is really miserable, there is no good one, I heard that there are several dead, and they have been transported back."
