Xiao Jiuqi entered the palace, and as soon as he told the matter, His Majesty vetoed it.

"What are you doing in the Northwest? That group of horse bandits is fierce and ferocious, and the government has offered a reward for arrest and has not yet been brought to justice, what can you do? The emperor feared for his son's safety and refused to agree.

Xiao Jiuqi looked at the old man and sneered, "Do you know who the leader of this group of horse bandits is?" ”

The emperor glanced at Xiao Jiu and always felt that he was going to say something angry with him.

Sure enough, I listened to Xiao Jiu say: "Mei Chengchuan, the uncle of Xiao Ting's concubine, is the one who ran away in Peach Blossom Town, do you remember?" ”

Emperor:......

"I just said that Xiao Ting is not a good thing, look at what he did, is this called a human thing? Privately raising horse bandits, plundering caravans, and besieging the yamen are all done by rebels, right? The more Xiao Jiuqi spoke, the more angry he became, "No matter how bad my temper is, I have never done such a thing that harms the people!" ”

"Little Jiu!"

"What are you doing to me? I'm poking you sad, right? Look at your son who has been partial for so many years, such a bastard, it's crazy to collect money. ”

Emperor:......

The more Xiao Jiuqi spoke, the more angry he became, "Anyway, whether you agree or not, I must bring Mei Chengchuan's head back this time, such a dog thing is arrogant outside, and I can't sleep when I think about it." ”

The emperor sighed, he didn't expect Xiao Jiu to be so angry, glanced at his son, and said, "You can go if you want, but you have to listen to my orders, and you can't act without permission." ”

Xiao Jiuqi's eyes rolled, and he agreed to come down first, anyway, when he got out, that was his biggest, and it was not up to him to decide what to do when the time came.

Will not be subject to military orders abroad.

Anyway, it wasn't the first time to do this kind of thing, Xiao Jiuqi readily agreed.

The emperor glanced at his son again, and then said, "Then you go back and prepare, and you will set off in three days." ”

Xiao Jiuqi left without being verbose, the three days were quite tight, and it seemed that the old man was not worried about things in the northwest.

As soon as Xiao Jiuqi left, the emperor looked at Luo Changying, "Xuan Lu Bai." ”

"Yes." Luo Changying bent down and retreated.

Soon, Lu Bai arrived, "Your Majesty." ”

"Get up." His Majesty looked at Lu Bai, "Lu Bai, you have been by my side for twenty years, right?" ”

Lu Bai didn't know why His Majesty suddenly mentioned this matter, the expression on his always serious face eased, and he said with a slight smile: "It's been twenty-two years since Your Majesty's words. ”

"I still remember that when you were selected to join the Dragon Guard, you were still a hairy boy, and you were just an umbrella pole by my side."

"Yes, thanks to His Majesty's appreciation, otherwise how could his subordinates have stood so easily." Lu Bai said.

It was not easy to enter the Dragon Guard back then, but it was even more difficult to gain a firm foothold after entering, at that time he was a little young, and it was easy to be bullied before he grew tall, but His Majesty once saw that he presided over justice for him, and transferred him to his side as a guard, so he was able to breathe a sigh of relief and climb up step by step.

Now twenty years have passed, he is in the prime of life, and he is the leader of the Dragon Guard, which is the heyday of the Guardian Majesty.

The emperor smiled, "These are all trivial matters, Lu Bai, I have a matter entrusted to you, King Jin wants to go to the northwest to investigate the case of horse bandits, you follow him, and your youngest son Lu Chi will be placed next to Xiao Chong on an errand." ”

Lu Bai's face changed, "Your Majesty...... Wechen can't leave you. ”

"This is my order." The emperor looked at Lu Bai.

Lu Bai looked solemn and solemn at His Majesty, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, "Yes, Weichen obeys." ”

"Lu Bai, this time is different, Xiao Jiu's life is in your hands."

Lu Bai didn't dare to breathe, and lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, as long as Weichen is here, King Jin will never be allowed to miss in the slightest." ”

"I am the most reassuring to you." The Emperor smiled lightly, "I will give you the right to cut first and then play, and if there are local officials who obstruct the case, you can be executed on the spot." "At this point, His Majesty paused." You can also mobilize the local garrison to coordinate, be sure to go early and return early. ”

"Yes, Weichen takes the order." Lu Bai said.

The emperor handed a token made of red gold to Lu Bai, "Follow King Jin out of the city in three days, go down." ”

Lu Bai carried the gold medal in his arms like a furnace, although the matter of the northwest horse bandits was a little tricky, but it would not let King Jin go in person.

Even if King Jin asked, His Majesty could have a way to stop it, but His Majesty not only did not stop it, but also asked him to follow and protect him, and even promised to put his youngest son next to Xiao Chong.

His youngest son is twelve years old this year, and he is already very good at martial arts, so he put it next to Xiao Chong...... Lu Bai had to think about it.

Your Majesty sent King Jin to the northwest, is there any big move to make King Jin mixed up in Shangjing?

Lu Bai didn't dare to think about it anymore, and went home with a calm face to arrange the trip.

In late autumn and early winter, the queen mother fell ill, and Sa Yuezhu lived in Fengyi Palace for a long time to recuperate the queen's body, and now she lies in bed for half a day.

Fu Yuanling is pregnant, the queen does not allow her to enter the palace to serve the sick, Xiao Jiuqi is diligent, now Fu Yuanling is in better health, and he doesn't want Xiao Chong and Xiao Yi to continue to live in the palace and let the queen mother worry, Xiao Jiuqi plans to let the two children go back and forth in the house to study.

When the queen heard this, she looked at her son, "Your daughter-in-law is in better health, don't let her worry about it, you don't know the queen mother's illness, and you have to toss every year when the seasons change." Sa Yuezhu's medicine is very useful, and it will be fine in a few days. Besides, there is comfort and harmony, so I don't have to worry about it. Speaking of this, the queen looked at her son, "How dangerous this trip to the northwest is, you kid is too impulsive, how can you risk yourself." ”

Xiao Jiuqi was a little weak-hearted, "I should be filial under your knees, it's my son who is not filial, and I have to travel far at this time." ”

Xiao Jiuqi's eyes were red, holding the queen's hand and refusing to let go, "But I don't worry, Mei Chengchuan is too cunning, he slipped away from my hand several times, I have experience with him, and this time he will definitely be brought to justice." ”

"The queen mother knows that our little nine have great love in our hearts."

Xiao Jiuqi: ......

Seeing that her son's face was red, the queen patted his head like when she was a child, "Go, it's the eagle that always spreads its wings and flies." It's just that you have to remember that the queen mother still has your daughter-in-law and children waiting for you to come back, don't be impulsive. ”

Xiao Jiuqi agreed, "Don't worry, I know everything." ”

"Go ahead."

Xiao Jiuqi glanced at the queen again, and then got up and left.

As soon as Xiao Jiuqi left, the queen slowly closed her eyes.

"Niangniang, don't worry, the prince will definitely return safely."

"This palace knows that if a person like my son is so good, God will definitely bless him." The queen said this, but her heart was uneasy, and she struggled to get up, "This palace is going to see Your Majesty." ”
