Chapter 668: The Great Water Washed the Dragon King Temple

Liu Daxia didn't stay in the camp for too long, as the governor of the three sides, he had too many affairs to deal with, and it was already very face-saving to be able to find time to meet Shen Xi.

Guard Lin sent Shen Xi to the outside of the medical center, with a grateful face: "I didn't expect that I, Lin someone, would one day be able to follow Lord Shen to make a contribution, thinking about yesterday's events, it was like having a dream, it was really happy." ”

The two of them sat down in front of the bonfire together, Shen Xi looked at his handsome face and asked, "Brother Lin, I still don't know your name." ”

“…… What is the shame of a guilty person? Lord Shen should not ask. Guard Lin's eyes were flushed, and he lowered his head gloomily, probably because of his life experience.

Shen Xi nodded slightly: "Does Brother Lin have relatives in his family?" I mean...... Before Brother Lin was convicted? ”

"This ......"

Lin Guard was a little embarrassed, after all, he didn't want to mention too much about the past, but seeing Shen Xi's concerned expression, he finally said it, "When my father was guilty, the contemptible person was only twelve years old, and his parents Gao Tang and his uncle were separated, but there was a little sister who was young, and I don't know where she and her mother are now." ”

Little sister, surnamed Lin.

Shen Xi suddenly laughed.

The reason why he asked so carefully was because he had always felt that Guard Lin's appearance seemed familiar, but he never remembered where he had seen it.

Now if you take a closer look, isn't it very similar to Lin Dai in childhood? At that time, the two childhood sweethearts slept together every day, and they saw that little face many times.

Even when I woke up early in the morning, the first thing I saw was her quiet sleep.

It's just that after Lin Dai grew up, the eighteenth female college changed, and her appearance became more pretty, especially after getting married, she was a little rich, and Shen Xi didn't associate the young man in front of her with Lin Dai when she was a little Lori for a while.

Shen Xi asked, "Brother Lin's sister, does she have a maiden name?" ”

"Lord Shen asked what this is for?"

Guard Lin looked at Shen Xi with a puzzled face, but when he thought that the benefactor in front of him was his benefactor, he replied calmly, "At that time, my father was an official in Lingnan, and our family went with him...... Who would have thought that because of his father's mistakes in governance, he was attacked by Shangguan, and finally his father died tragically in prison, and even his mother and little sister were also assigned. ”

"She was only nine years old when she was separated from her sister and her mother, and now she ...... I'm afraid it's no longer in the world. Her maiden name is a 'Dai' word, her father once said that she was born at a young age with abnormal beauty, and the six palaces have no color, so she gave her this name when she was six years old, hoping that she would be prosperous and rich in the future, but unfortunately ......"

Shen Xi remembered that when Lin Dai first revealed her heart, she had a brother who was three years older than her and was imprisoned with her father.

The Lin family is scattered all over the world, Lin Dai's father died, and her mother's whereabouts are unknown, most of them are no longer alive, in the hearts of the two brothers and sisters, although they also want to find each other, but they dare not have any extravagance.

Lin Dai has become accustomed to being her scheming "Second Lady Shen" in the Shen family, and Lin Guards have also made contributions in Northern Xinjiang, and now has the position of deputy president.

"Brother Lin, what is your name?" Shen Xi asked.

Lin Guard recalled his memories and sighed lightly: "Lin Heng, the word Bozhi, the word is a ...... given to me by my father in prison"

Shen Xi wanted to tell his sister directly, but after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head again, and now saying it just made Lin Heng have more worries in his heart, with his status as a military officer, he can't return to Beijing in a short time, so it is better to hide it for the time being, so as not to make him think cranky.

But when Shen Xi returned to the guest room in the backyard of the governor's yamen, he felt that this was too selfish.

Perhaps because Shen Xi regarded himself as Lin Dai's only reliance, he was somewhat worried that Lin Heng's appearance would make Lin Dai's heart less single-minded.

But he is not a stingy person, he is glad that the Lin Dai brothers and sisters can finally be reunited, which is his biggest gain from coming to Yulinwei.

But before Lin Heng returned to the capital, this matter still had to be temporarily concealed.

However, Shen Xi will find a way to bring Lin Heng with him when he returns to Beijing this time.

……

……

The next day, the counting of military exploits in the city continued, and ten Franc cannons were erected at the head of the city, becoming the treasure of Yansui Town.

All the soldiers and horses returned to the city one after another, and the battle exploits were reported at all levels, and as for the detailed military exploits, they had to wait for Liu Daxia to play the imperial court before making a decision.

After the war, Yulin City was still busy, and there were more white things in the city, Shen Xi went out for a walk, and he could see people hanging white silk and white cloth everywhere.

"Lord Shen, Governor Liu asked me to wait for the messenger to pass the word, saying that you would like to go to the General Military Mansion in the north of the city."

Now Shen Xi's prestige in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of Yansui Town is very high, and people who see Shen Xi will salute as long as they know his identity, no matter how big or small their official position is.

Although Liu Daxia did not ask Shen Xi for the first credit, at least he did not expose Shen Xi as a "fake Qincha", not that Liu Daxia's conscience found out, but that he felt that Shen Xi's status as a Qincha would help to spread the favor of the emperor and the imperial court to all parts of the border passes.

Because the soldiers respect and appreciate Shen Xi, they will also remember that this is the Qin mission sent by the emperor, Shen Xi saved them, saved Yansui Town, and it is equivalent to the emperor saving them with his own hands.

Shen Xi felt more and more that he was a superfluous existence in Yulin Weizhong.

At this time, it was the second half of winter, and Shen Xi wanted to return to Beijing a little earlier and strive to spend the Spring Festival at home, otherwise Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai would be guarding the cold pot and cold stove for the New Year, and they would not be reunited.

……

……

In the capital, more than 1,000 miles away, the haze accumulated in people's hearts this year has not yet dissipated, and the snow is even worse at the end of the year......

Entering the winter moon, Datong was besieged, Xuanfu was in an emergency, coupled with the continuous heavy snow around the capital, especially in the Taihang area, the roads from Zhending and Jingcheng to Guguan and Weize Pass were blocked.

The imperial court wanted to send troops to rescue Liu Daxia, but it was afraid that Liu Daxia's army would be wiped out, and the increase in troops would become a "food delivery" to the Tatars.

Because of the heavy snow and the Tatar cavalry, coupled with the fact that the Xuanfu and Datong military towns adhered to the consistent style of "rumors", warning signals were sent out from time to time, giving people the illusion that the Tatars were everywhere, which made the well-informed people in the capital shocked three times a day, and Emperor Hongzhi was also shocked and angry.

There were not many people among the Beijing officials who knew that Gaoming City was killed and the border pass was defeated, but because of the martial law in the capital and the tense atmosphere in the court, the ministers could probably guess that the current war did not seem to be ideal.

Emperor Hongzhi was angry, and did not hold a court meeting for several days, and he didn't think about tea and dinner, and he was worried about his country. After more than ten years of hard work, the Ming Dynasty is also considered to be a country and a peaceful country, but suddenly, the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse, making people wonder if it will repeat the nightmare of the former Song Dynasty's "Jingkang's shame".

"Could it be that the Tatars want to invade the Central Plains again and occupy our rivers and mountains?"

When Zhu Youzhu said this, he was in front of the gate of the East Palace, watching his son have a "snowball fight" with his mother.

Empress Zhang's health has been much better recently, and she can go out of Kunning Palace to walk around the palace from time to time, but today is still the first time she has seen her son in the Chufang Palace, and she is extremely happy.

Zhu Youzhu watched his wife and children having fun, and felt a little guilty in his heart, if Liu Daxia's army was annihilated, it was likely that the overall situation in Yansui Town had collapsed at this time, and once the Tatars drove straight in, Shaanxi and Shanxi would inevitably be in danger everywhere, and Gyeonggi would soon be in danger, repeating the embarrassing scene after the Tumubao Incident, and all this was only due to a wrong decision by him.

"Bang!"

Zhu Youzhu slapped on the porch, and the hatred for a person in his heart increased again, that is, Xie Qian, who advocated sending troops and even made a detailed plan.

At this time, Xie Qian was the most unlucky of the Beijing officials, although it was not his intention to send troops to deter the Tatars, but he was the initiator. After the incident, whether it was Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, or Zhang Mao and Ma Wensheng, they all intended to dissociate themselves from Xie Qian in this matter, as if Xie Qian was the culprit.

Although there was no court meeting, Xie Qian knew his own family affairs and did not go to the Qianqing Palace for a few days, because he knew that his appearance would upset Emperor Hongzhi, so he obediently walked on both sides of the house and the cabinet, and even the six yamen were not patronized, so that the family members who did not know the truth smiled, thinking that their master had changed his sex.

At the end of the day, before Xie Qian walked out of Dong'anmen, he saw Ma Wensheng coming in a hurry with Xiong Xiu, the squire of the military department.

"Ma Shangshu, what's the matter?"

Xie Qian stood in the doorway on the south side of the east gate, and wanted to call Ma Wensheng directly, but when he saw Xiong Xiu present, he was also official.

Marven Sheng was in a hurry, and he didn't seem to see him, so he entered the palace through the doorway in the north, and even Xiong Xiu didn't say hello to him.

Xie Qian was stunned for a moment, why is it that he is a cabinet scholar, and now he still has the power to vote, so he ignores himself so much? Thinking about his current situation, he couldn't help but be secretly annoyed: "People are warm and cold, in the past, I'm afraid I didn't take the initiative to greet you, right?" ”

Ma Wensheng is true that you are a veteran of the Four Dynasties, but I haven't been removed from office yet, right?

Taking a step back, Ma Wensheng is more than 20 years older than himself, from the perspective of respecting the old and loving the young, it's just that you ignore me, but what kind of thing is your bear embroidery, you dare to "look down on people with dog eyes"!?

"Did I come up with this plan alone? Liu Daxia will definitely lose? Isn't there Shen Xi by his side? ”

Thinking of Shen Xi, Xie Qian suddenly became angry...... This kid dug a big hole, and I stupidly jumped down, and now it's okay, and I killed myself!

However, although Xie Qian felt that it was best for Shen Xi to die at the border pass to relieve the hatred in his heart, he felt very sorry, "Nothing really happened to this kid, right?" There has been no news for a long time, and I hope he can have an accident safely...... Stinky boy, I hope you are safe and sound, when you return to Beijing, I will definitely screw you over, and ask me well, what bad idea did you give the old man! ”

Xie Qian was able to support the boat in the prime minister's belly, and he scolded fiercely, but he was secretly worried about Shen Xi in his heart.

……

……

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Ma Shangshu has entered the palace and said that there is a major military situation!"

In the corridor on the right side of the door of the Fang Palace, a eunuch hurriedly walked in, this eunuch was not very old, about forty, and he was young among the eunuchs in charge.

This person's name is Zhang Yuan, his name before entering the palace was Shen Mingyou, and he is now the eunuch arranged by the queen to be next to Zhu Youji, responsible for the daily life of Emperor Hongzhi.

"Quick."

When Zhu Youzhu heard that there was an emergency military situation, his heart suddenly became nervous, and he even forgot about the fact that he was in the Chufang Palace.

Zhang Yuan didn't understand these very well, and was just about to turn around to pass the word, but was stopped by Zhu Youji.

"Help me clean up, I will clean up the palace."

Under Zhang Yuan's service, Zhu Youzhu tidied up his clothes, and he didn't even have time to say hello to Queen Zhang, and hurriedly went to Qianqing Palace.

When they walked away, Empress Zhang realized that there was one person missing behind her, glanced at it from a distance, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with the emperor?" ”

"Queen Mother, Father-in-law Zhang said that Ma Shangshu entered the palace and had an emergency military intelligence report." The attendant brought the words over, and these words were specially given to Empress Zhang by Zhang Yuanmian in front of the saint.

Empress Zhang showed a satisfied look and nodded: "It's still comfortable to use by your own people." Since the military department is still in the palace, the matter must not be small. Emperor, you play by yourself, the queen mother is going back to the palace, if your father has something to do...... Maybe I'll talk to the queen mother. ”

"Got it, Queen Mother."

Zhu Houzhao's little face was red from the cold, and there was a bright smile on it, "Queen Mother, can you tell your father that there used to be a ...... named Shen Xi It's Mr. Shen, he teaches very well, and the child wants to learn more from him. ”

Empress Zhang nodded Zhu Houzhao's little head complainingly, and said, "As soon as you pout your buttocks, you know where you want to fly, do you want to play with Mr. Shen?" (To be continued.) )
