So Tang Ning decided to stay, although he had never seen his mother, but he could feel his mother's heavy maternal love, and he received so much from his mother's legacy.

Tang Ning found Fan Wencheng: "Now that the old Khan King is likely to have been poisoned, the birthday celebration will be over, you can return to the Great Zhou!" ”

Fan Wencheng said: "What about you, general? Now that the grassland is so chaotic, and the temple is colluding with King Zuoxian, you are very dangerous on the grassland! ”

Tang Ning said: "I want to stay, but this is my private matter, not official business, you don't need to accompany me on an adventure, I can pick out my own soldiers to send you back to Da Zhou!" ”

Fan Wencheng was a little entangled in his heart, if he wanted to say that it would be very dangerous to stay on the grassland, but the problem was that even if he returned to Da Zhou, it would not be peaceful on the way.

Whether you choose to stay or choose to leave, there is danger, just when Fan Wencheng hesitated, he suddenly remembered something.

Fan Wencheng patted his forehead and said: "General Tang, when the lower official left Beijing, the emperor also gave me a bag, saying that if something big happened in the grassland, he would give this bag to the general." ”

Tang Ning couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, what kind of trick is the emperor playing?!

Fan Wencheng hurriedly searched for it in the baggage, and finally found a bag and handed it to Tang Ning with both hands.

Tang Ning looked at the bag in his hand and was speechless, he felt that this bag was probably something that the emperor asked him to give to the Khan, the problem is that now that the old Khan King has passed away, what is the use of this thing?

Although there was some slander in his heart, Tang Ning still opened the bag, and when a long cry fell out of the bag, a golden thing fell out of the bag.

Tang Ning took it in his hand and looked at it, and his eyes immediately narrowed.

This is a token for troop transfer!

The emperor gave him a token for troop transfer!

In addition to this token for the transfer of troops, there was also a secret letter sealed on oiled paper in the bag, which Tang Ning immediately opened, and there were only a few lines in it, which was the emperor's imperial pen.

The Nanshan battalion commanded Tang Ning to control the dispatch of soldiers and horses in Jizhen with a token.

Although the center of gravity of the Great Zhou defense has always been the barbarians, it is impossible not to be wary of the grassland at all, and Jizhen is a military town that defends the grassland.

It's just that there has been no war in the grassland and the Great Zhou, and Jizhen is inevitably a little lonely and not valued by the monarchs and the people.

A troop mobilization token, a royal pen for the control of troops and horses, Tang Ning wanted to find something else in the bag, but unfortunately, there was nothing else in the bag.

Although the emperor didn't tell him anything, Tang Ning still couldn't help but think about it, and the feeling in his heart was mentioned, if there were not so many people around him, the dirty words would have blurted out of Tang Ning's mouth.

Seeing the contents of this bag, Tang Ning had only one thought, all of which the emperor had expected! The emperor expected a rebellion in the steppe!

The question is, why didn't the emperor inform him in advance? Even, the emperor did not inform the old Khan?

Thinking deeper, did the emperor already anticipate that the old Khan would be killed? In other words, the emperor asked him to come to the steppe not to congratulate the old Khan on his birthday at all!

Otherwise, why would the emperor give him a token to transfer troops?

What's more, Tang Ning was speechless, what was the use of the emperor giving him a token? Jizhen has always been not valued by the imperial court, although it is also a border army, but the border army of Jizhen is far worse than the border army of Shuozhou in terms of strength and elite.

The emperor will never let him dominate the grassland with the little soldiers and horses of Jizhen, right? This is really too much!

Let him take his soldiers and horses to avenge the old Khan? If the emperor had this in mind, why didn't he inform the old Khan in advance?

After reading it, Tang Ning took the emperor's handwritten letter and token into his arms, but all this was in Fan Wencheng's eyes.

Although he didn't know what the emperor wrote in the secret letter, Fan Wencheng, the token in Tang Ning's hand, saw it very clearly.

The trick given by the emperor turned out to be a token for troop transfer? What does that mean? Fan Wencheng was a little confused.

Tang Ning frowned and asked, "Master Fan, do you know the strength of Jizhen?" ”

Fan Wencheng was stunned and replied: "Jizhen originally had more than 60,000 garrisons, including 20,000 cavalry, but some time ago, the emperor mobilized 20,000 cavalry to Jizhen. ”

Speaking of this, Fan Wencheng suddenly had an idea in his heart, the token of troop transfer will not be aimed at Jizhen, right?

It is very likely that Jizhen is the closest to the grassland, and the emperor happened to send troops to reinforce Jizhen.

In fact, what Fan Wencheng and Tang Ning didn't know was that after they left Shuozhou, the emperor's will then arrived, and Sun Hu immediately rushed to Jizhen with the soldiers and horses of the Nanshan battalion.

Although he opened his mouth to ask, Tang Ning didn't have much hope, after all, Fan Wencheng was a civil official, but he didn't expect Fan Wencheng to answer in such detail.

Tang Ning was slightly surprised: "Okay, Lord Fan, you actually know so much about Jizhen!" ”

Fan Wencheng said with a slight bitterness in his mouth: "General Tang, did the emperor give General Tang the token to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Jizhen?" ”

Since Fan Wencheng saw it in his eyes, Tang Ning did not hide it, nodded and said: "Yes, the emperor gave me the will and token to control the mobilization of Jizhen's soldiers and horses." ”

Finally understood why the emperor wanted him to be this deputy envoy, Fan Wencheng smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from General Tang, my father is the chief soldier of Jizhen." ”

Tang Ning couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the emperor's arrangement was really meticulous enough!

No wonder Fan Wencheng is so familiar with the situation in Jizhen, it turns out that his father is the chief soldier of Jizhen! No wonder Fan Wencheng can ride so well, a civil official also practiced two hands, it turned out that he was born as a general.

Fan Wencheng smiled bitterly: "Since I was a child, I was frail, although I worked hard, it was difficult to achieve anything, so I studied for the imperial examination and became a civil official, but I didn't achieve anything." ”

Tang Ning asked, "Now that the grassland is so dangerous, Lord Fan should go back to Ji Town, right?" ”

Now that he finally knew why the emperor would send him as a deputy envoy, how could he possibly return to Jizhen? Don't think about it for the rest of your life.

Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "Where is the general, since the emperor sent me to follow the general, whether it is in water or fire, I will follow the general!" ”

Tang Ning was not surprised, he understood why the emperor would send Fan Wencheng as his deputy envoy, Fan Wencheng was not stupid, how could he not guess?

After saying this, Fan Wencheng stepped forward and said mysteriously: "General, since the emperor has given the general a tip for transferring troops, it means that the emperor has long foreseen that King Zuo Xian will rebel and King Old Khan will encounter accidents!" ”

"Now the general can also blow the horn of the golden family, and there is a clan left by the princess, as long as the general mobilizes the army of Jizhen and defeats King Zuoxian, it will definitely be expected by everyone at that time."
