Chapter 457
"Then these 30,000 people, is it difficult to let them go?" Shi Hu asked.
"Of course not!" Shi Min said: "Weichen is willing to lead the wolf cavalry captain to the expedition!" Attack this group of Huns with Shi Yong on both sides and kill them! ”
Shi Min said, and asked Shi Zhan for his meaning: "Father, what do you think?" ”
Before Shi Zhan could speak, Shi Hu asked, "You take someone with you!" So what to do here? ”
Shi Min didn't dare to make his own decisions anymore, but looked at Shi Zhan's face and wanted to ask for his opinion.
Shi Zhan thought for a while and said to Shi Hu: "Father, Xiao Min's analysis is not unreasonable.......
Hearing Shi Zhan say this, Shi Min breathed a sigh of relief. Shi Zhan paused, and then said: "Now as long as we block the road of the Xianbei people to the south, the Huns and the Xianbei people can only go their own way, and they will not be able to join forces. Next, defeat them one by one, but it is not advisable to fight for a long time, and it is necessary to fight quickly. ”
Shi Hu looked at the father and son, obviously not fully understood. So Shi Zhan explained: "Erchen thinks that if you can let the wolf cavalry captain go, the 30,000 Huns are a big hidden danger, and it should be solved as soon as possible!" In such a situation, there is no better fit than the wolf knight! ”
"But Xiao Min is gone, how do the Xianbei people deal with it?" Shi Hu seemed a little uneasy.
"Father, rest assured, there will be no problem with his sons! What's more, your descendants are too! Shi Zun said first.
Shi Zhan glanced at Shi Zun and said, "What the prince said is right! ”
Shi Hu thought about it again and again, and finally ordered: "Shi Min listens to the order!" ”
"The minister is here!"
"I order you to lead the wolf cavalry captain and set off immediately to conquer the Huns who have entered the customs!"
"Command!" Shi Min kowtowed.
Shi Min's departure is what Shi Zun is most willing to see, so that Shi Zhan is alone here, and he can deceive his superiors and subordinates, covering the sky with one hand.
......
Liu Guifei looked at the child in the swaddling clothes, her weak and pale face showed a look of joy, she seemed to see her mother's world on this child's face, and saw that this child would dominate the country in the future.
"Niangniang, the little prince is so good-looking!" The maidservant on the side flattered.
Liu Guifei smiled slightly, and said quite proudly: "That's nature, the flesh and blood of this palace are at least one in a million!" ”
Suddenly, Liu Guifei seemed to remember something, the smile on her face was fleeting, and she asked, "Is Xiaoxiang's girl dead?" ”
Hearing Liu Guifei suddenly mention Xiao Xiang, everyone's faces changed instantly, because Xiao Xiang's fate made them feel creepy.
"Hui Niangniang...... Xiaoxiang...... It's already dead......"
"Little slut! It's really hateful to do such a disobedient thing without telling this palace! In vain, this palace regards her as a confidant! Liu Guifei scolded and scolded.
The maidservants did not dare to speak, but obediently knelt beside them, bowing their heads.
"Lu An can't get out of this matter!" Liu Guifei gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "Lu An! The prince was born, he is His Majesty's personal attendant, and now that His Majesty is not in the palace, there is no reason why he is not waiting in Huilan Palace! Go! Call this dog slave to Hongu! ”
"Back to Niangniang, Father-in-law Lu hasn't been to Huilan Palace for several days!"
"After Niangniang gave birth to the little prince, the slave maid went to Hongguang Pavilion to find Father-in-law Lu, but I don't know where Father-in-law Lu went, and the slave maid didn't find it."
Hearing everyone say this, the maidservant who had seen Lu An that night was a little puzzled and said, "Father-in-law Lu? On the night when Niangniang gave birth to the little prince, Father-in-law Lu was in Huilan Palace! ”
Liu Guifei felt that something was wrong, so she asked, "That night, did you see Lu An?" ”
The maid nodded seriously and said, "The slave has seen it!" At that time, the slave maid was about to go to the Taiyi Pavilion to get medicine, and happened to meet Grandpa Lu, who was about to go to the back kitchen to turn on the water, and you were waiting by Niangniang's side, haven't you seen Grandpa Lu? ”
"......No," said the other maids, shaking their heads.
The more Liu Guifei listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, so she ordered: "Go and call everyone in Huilan Palace!" Hongu wants to ask! ”
"Yes......."
Soon, dozens of people up and down the Huilan Palace were called over and stood outside the house waiting.
A maidservant girl walked out and asked, "Niangniang asks you, who saw Lu An in Huilan Palace on the night the little prince was born?" ”
Hearing this question, everyone immediately talked about it, and soon someone replied, "I haven't seen it!" ”
"People in the back kitchen, has Lu An ever been to you?"
"No! There were only a few of us in the kitchen all night, and I hadn't seen Grandpa Lu! ”
"And what about a few of you?"
"No ......"
"Think about it! Have you ever seen it? Will you ever see it and forget it? ”
Everyone thought about it again, but still shook their heads.
The maid frowned slightly, turned around and walked into the house, and then knelt down and said, "Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid has just asked, that night, I have seen this girl, and no one else has seen Lu An." ”
Liu Guifei frowned slightly, stared at the servant girl kneeling beside the bed, and before she could speak, the servant girl kowtowed in fright and said, "Niangniang! The slave didn't lie! The slave has really seen Grandpa Lu! At that time, he said that he was going to the back kitchen to fetch water, but the direction he walked was to go to the courtyard where the slaves and maids lived, just in the opposite direction, and then the slaves and maids showed him the way......"
"You said he was going to fetch water and went in the wrong direction?" Liu Guifei asked.
The maidservant was almost frightened, and replied tremblingly, "Yes......"
"Lu An has been to Huilan Palace so many times, it is impossible not to know where the back kitchen is, there is no reason to go to the wrong place." Liu Guifei said.
"Mother, the slave really doesn't talk nonsense......"
"Don't be noisy!" Liu Guifei scolded.
The servant girl was so frightened that she immediately shut up, and her whole body only trembled.
At this time, Liu Guifei had basically determined that she gave birth by herself that night, and Lu An must have done something in Huilan Palace. If he really went to the back kitchen to fetch water, there is no reason why the people in the back kitchen didn't see him, except for the servant girl in front of him, no one up and down the Huilan Palace saw Lu An appear, then if what the servant girl said was true, there was only one explanation for this matter, that is, Lu An didn't want others to know that he came to the Huilan Palace that night.
But what is Lu An doing in Huilan Palace so sneakily? Liu Guifei really couldn't figure it out.
"You just said that when you bumped into Lu An, the direction he went was the courtyard where you usually live?" Liu Guifei suddenly asked.
"Yes......"
Although Concubine Liu Guifei didn't know what Lu An had done, she had a very bad premonition in her heart, so she instructed the people around her: "Send someone to Hongguang Pavilion, and then see if Lu An is there, if not, go to Commander Wen, and ask him to find out Lu An to the palace, and then bring it to Huilan Palace!" ”
"Yes......"
"And!" Liu Guifei couldn't help but squeeze the quilt tightly, and coldly ordered: "You two, go and turn Xiaoxiang's house inside and out, and if you find anything suspicious, bring it to the palace immediately!" ”
The two of them could hear that Liu Guifei's tone had changed, and they didn't dare to be careless, so they hurriedly responded, and then turned around and ran out.
"Wait!" Liu Guifei suddenly shouted.
The two hurriedly stopped.
"Keep quiet! Watch your heads! ”
"The slave understands ......"
When the maidservants left, Liu Guifei looked at the two little eunuchs standing by the bed, her eyes were very cold, and the two little eunuchs stood there and didn't dare to move.
"That night, Hongu wanted you to kill that little slut, are you sure she's dead?" Liu Guifei asked.
Hearing Liu Guifei ask, the person immediately "pounced" and knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "Slave is sure...... She...... She is indeed dead......"
"What about the corpses?"
"Throw it in the dry well in the back garden......"
