After the matter was decided, Yue Shaoan no longer delayed, and on the way back to Hangzhou, he walked very fast, and returned to Hangzhou City in a few days. Today's Hangzhou is different from Yue Shao'an's departure, there are no longer so many military camps in front of the city, it is empty, the same as when he first came to Hangzhou.

At first glance, Yue Shao'an was still a little uncomfortable, however, as soon as he walked to the city gate, he saw a eunuch hurriedly coming forward: "Emperor, you can come back, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

"Huh?" Yue Shaoan was slightly startled, what is the situation? The fact that he came back did not alarm too many people, although he said that he had reported a letter to the emperor, but the person who sent the letter was not necessarily much faster than himself, how could the emperor send someone to wait for him here?

Yue Shaoan was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Father-in-law, what is the emperor looking for me?" ”

The eunuch showed a helpless wry smile: "The slave will know the meaning of the saint, the emperor can ask the slave......"

Yue Shao'an knew that the eunuchs in this kilometer were very sleek, and he would definitely not cause trouble because of himself, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, where is the emperor now?" ”

"The emperor should be in the imperial study!" The eunuch saluted Yue Shao'an and said, "The saint said, after the emperor comes back, just go directly to the imperial study." ”

Yue Shaoan nodded, waved his hand and said, "Let Father-in-law Lao lead the way!" After that, Yue Shao'an explained a few more words to Gao Chong, and the little county lord took Gao Chong and Hong Meng back to the Emperor's Mansion first, and Yue Shao'an followed the eunuch to the palace alone.

He was really a little depressed, he originally planned to go home and see the wives first, Ning'er was almost born, he had been over there, he hadn't seen her since he left, and he didn't know, how is she now, has she given birth......

"Emperor, the imperial study has arrived, you go in, and the slave will retire first." Yue Shao'an was a little distracted when he thought about it, and the eunuch reminded him softly. He came back to his senses, nodded, and after the eunuch left, he took a deep breath before pushing the door and stepping in.

Entering the imperial study, the emperor raised his head and looked over, the two looked at each other, Yue Shaoan noticed that the emperor was a little happy, but his spirit did not seem to be very good, his eyes were slightly red, bloodshot, obviously he had stayed up late.

"Mr. Yue, are you back?" The emperor beckoned to Yue Shao'an and said, "Come here, the battle situation in the north has changed......"

Yue Shao'an was suddenly shocked, the battle situation in the north, isn't that Liu Bonan? Yue Shaoan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, something happened to Bonan?" ”

The emperor waved his hand and said: "That's not it, it's just that Bernan came with news that he intercepted the secret letter from the Jin State to Zhang Xianrang, according to the content of it, the Jin soldiers will go south in a few days, and our secret agents in the Jin State also came with news that the fourth prince of the Jin State Wanyan Man led an army of 100,000 to the south, and it was less than five days away from Bianliang City. ”

Yue Shao'an frowned: "In this case, Bernan will be in danger." ”

"Hmm!" The emperor nodded: "I am also worried about this matter!" Now Niu Hongzhi has been transferred to go, but when Niu Hongzhi was the first emperor, he never won every time he fought with Wanyanman, and I was really relieved to hand over this matter to him, so I was about to ask Mr. Yue to return to Beijing, but I learned that you were on the way, so I sent someone to greet him. ”

Yue Shao'an nodded, but he was still a little embarrassed: "It's just that I only brought a team of pro-soldiers this time, and the number of people is less than 10,000, if the soldiers and horses from Xuancheng are transferred, the time is not enough......"

The emperor frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "What if Niu Hongzhi's men and horses are handed over to you to take charge?" ”

"No!" Yue Shaoan shook his head and said: "The change of generals in the battle will hinder the morale of the army, and even if I take charge, those soldiers under my command may not be convinced, and it will not be good if there is an accident at that time." ”

The emperor nodded, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Then what does Mr. Yiyue mean?" ”

Yue Shaoan looked at the emperor's expression, affirmed his guess in his heart, his answer just now was very satisfied, sure enough, the emperor would not rest assured that the military power would be handed over to one person, if Yue Shaoan took over Niu Hongzhi's soldiers and horses, then in this way, there are too many soldiers and horses in his hands, it will be difficult to check and balance, the emperor will not let this kind of thing happen, the reason why I said this just now, obviously, Yue Shaoan's actions in Xuancheng made the emperor have any scruples, but now it seems that he took the initiative to shirk just now, It has made him dispel this scruples.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this matter should be like this, you just need to make a holy decree and let General Niu fully cooperate with me, and the rest, it is not easy to make a conclusion now, and Yue Shaoan can only do his best."

Yue Shaoan's tone was very pertinent. The emperor nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered someone to draft the holy decree, and after all this was ready, the emperor dismissed the attendants, patted Yue Shao'an on the shoulder and said: "After leaving for so long, you should be homesick, as soon as you come back, you will be allowed to enter the palace, will you complain about me in your heart?" ”

Yue Shao'an smiled and talked about family affairs, the atmosphere in the imperial study eased a lot, and he was a lot more relaxed when he spoke: "State affairs are important, and Yue Shao'an is naturally in a hurry." ”

The emperor also smiled and said: "It's just the two of us here, and we don't have to care about the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, this time you don't have to complain about me or not, I have to send you out, no discussion." I will send someone to ask them to speed up the journey, but the team of nearly 10,000 people is not as good as a single horse, and it is estimated that it will arrive at noon tomorrow at the earliest, and you can go home and have a look during this time. ”

Yue Shaoan nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something I want to ask you to agree to." ”

"Oh?" The emperor was puzzled: "What's the matter, let's hear it." ”

"I want them all to move to Xuancheng, and as you know, I have made a lot of enemies in the court, and I don't want to ...... them because I have affected them."

"With me here, who dares to touch your family?" The emperor didn't wait for Yue Shao'an to speak, then interrupted his words and raised his head to speak. However, after saying that, he saw Yue Shaoan's eager face, and said with a smile: "However, these are your family affairs, you can do what you want, I won't think much about it." ”

Yue Shaoan glanced at the emperor "gratefully", then smiled again, and said, "There is just one person, and you must nod." ”

"You mean Yuqian?" The Emperor was surprised.

"Exactly!"

The emperor did not agree as simply as he agreed this time, but bowed his head and pondered for a while before saying: "I am such a sister, you have taken her so far, I am really a little reluctant, but if Yuqian agrees to this matter, let her go with you, but if you want to get married, you must come back here." ”

"This is natural." Yue Shao'an's face was overjoyed, he didn't expect the emperor to agree so easily: "Your Majesty, can I go and see Yuqian now?" ”

"There you go!" The Emperor waved his hand.

Yue Shao'an bowed, exited the imperial study, and headed towards where Yin Yuqian lived.

The emperor looked at Yue Shao'an's departing back, his face showed a little smile, in his opinion, Yue Shao'an didn't understand politics/governance, he only knew women and war, besides, he cared so much about his sister, so there was nothing to worry about.
