Li also smiled and pointed.

"Hahahaha~~ I didn't expect my granddaughter to be able to write, okay!" Ji Guogong strode into the study and took the paper on which Luo Ning was writing.

"Dad, why are you here, and I didn't tell you in advance, so I can go out to pick you up." Li was a little surprised to see his father coming.

Luo Heng hurriedly stepped forward, "Father-in-law, my son-in-law has seen my father-in-law." ”

"yes, okay." The old man didn't have time to take care of these two at this time, so he stepped forward and hugged Xiao Luoning, "Ning'er, do you want to think about grandpa, let grandpa see if he has grown taller!" ”

Luo Ning hugged the old man's neck, "Grandpa, Ning'er misses you, Ning'er has grown a lot taller!" Luo Ning's face was happy, his grandfather loved himself the most, and he kissed his grandfather's face after speaking, "Grandpa, your beard is really prickly!" ”

"Haha~~ Then my grandfather shaved it, saving me from stabbing my Ning'er." The old man laughed.

"Heng'er, I'm here today to discuss something with you." The old prince turned his head and said to Luo Heng.

"Oh, madam, you take Ning'er to the yard to play, and I'll talk to my father-in-law about something." Luo Heng saw that the old man was holding Xiao Luo Ning to his wife, so he said.

Li walked out of the study with Xiao Luo Ning in his arms, Luo Heng closed the door of the study and asked, "Father-in-law, if there is anything to call me to the house, why do you come in person?" Isn't this tormenting the son-in-law? ”

"Sit down first, it's urgent, don't care about this." The old man sat down on the Taishi's chair.

Luo Heng also sat down on the chair and instructed the servant to serve tea, "Father-in-law, what is so urgent for you to come in a hurry." ”

"Your Majesty just sent someone to pass the decree that there is an enemy country in the East China Sea to cause chaos and intends to declare war on our border, and Your Majesty will send me to lead 50,000 troops to make peace with the 20,000 East China Navy stationed on the border, a total of 70,000 troops to quell the border rebellion." The old man said slowly.

"This~~~ Father-in-law, there are still a few generals available in the court now, why did Your Majesty let you lead the troops? What does that mean? Luo Heng thought for a while, but had no clue, "Father-in-law, what does Brother Maode think about this matter?" ”

"Maode" is the character of Li Guang, the elder brother of the Li family.

"Maude is busy with the transfer of troops in the military department, and he hasn't had time to discuss this matter with me yet." The old man sighed and continued, "Heng'er, I always feel a little strange at this time, I haven't led the troops for a long time, and now there are many people in the court who lead the troops, and there are also generals with both wisdom and scheming, why do you want to send me, an old man?" Although I have been on the battlefield for a long time and have some strategies, the war in front of me is not big, and it is just right to train young generals, so it is not beautiful for me to go. ”

"My father-in-law is right, and my son-in-law also thinks that this matter is not simple, what is the attitude of the other generals? Also, I wonder when my father-in-law will leave? Luo Heng asked.

"Your Majesty explained, set off in five days, it seems that this year will not be able to be spent at home, as for the attitude of other people, we will only know after Guang'er returns." The old man sighed and took a sip from his teacup.

Luo Heng also shook his head and sighed, in previous years, it was a big family to get together for the New Year, not to mention how lively it was, but this year, hey~~, the old man is old, and he has to lead troops to the front line, and I don't know what His Majesty thinks, is it really a great achievement, is it a threat to Your Majesty? Luo Heng thought of the dispute between the crown prince and the eighth prince, because the eldest son of the emperor died early, and now the prince and the eighth prince are both born to the concubine, and they are not concubines, so the situation of competition is becoming more and more serious. But then shook his head, the Luo family and the Li family have always been neutral and do not get involved in party disputes, so what is the reason? Could it be that the war situation is urgent, and it must be my father-in-law? Luo Heng couldn't figure it out.

The next morning, Luo Heng received the order to go to the household department to be responsible for the allocation of grain and grass materials, after the next dynasty, Luo Heng hurriedly came to the household yamen to get busy, at this time the concierge informed the military department of the Shangshu Li to come to negotiate the relevant matters of sending troops to the East China Sea, Luo Heng just wanted to go to Li Guang, heard that he was coming and went out to greet him.

"Master Lee."

"Lord Luo."

After the two of them saluted, they came to the inner room, and after closing the door, Luo Heng asked, "Brother Maode, why did Your Majesty let your father-in-law lead the troops in the East China Sea?" My father-in-law hasn't led a soldier for a long time. ”

"Hey~~ Wen Yuan, this matter was personally decreed by His Majesty, and the king's heart is unpredictable, and I can't guess why Your Majesty is this, thinking about it, it can only be the same as when you were taken out of prison some time ago, Your Majesty is afraid that my two families are powerful!" Li Guang couldn't figure out why, so he could only guess out of thin air.

"Wenyuan" is Luo Heng's word.

Luo Heng thought left and right, the only thing he could think of was this, the Luo family and the Li family were both national princes, and Li Kun, the prince of Ji Guogong, was the former generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and was named the Shangzhu State by the first emperor, and his influence in the military was unparalleled, now many young generals are Li Kun's disciples, and his son Li Guang is also both civil and military, and he serves in the military department, and now the old emperor is still alive, once the old emperor returns to heaven, if the new emperor can't suppress the Li family all the time, it is difficult to guarantee that the Li family will not do anything that threatens the country.

Besides, the Luo family, the literati family, the ancestors were the founding heroes, and they were the first strategists under Taizu, it can be said that if there was no Luo family ancestor to give advice, there would be no such a big country now, and Emperor Taizu could not be the lord of the world, and then the dynasty, Luo Heng's father Luo Chuan, although he died, but Yu Wei can be described as not small, the elders of the two dynasties, both the prime minister and the emperor, and the disciples are all over the court and the opposition, and they are also the great Confucians who are extremely respected in the hearts of today's literati.

And the two are in-laws, and hold the two lifelines of the country, if they are united, it is the wind and fire meet, the wind helps the fire, the fire borrows the wind, and the trend of the prairie fire, if you want to overthrow the emperor and stand on his own, it is as easy as a snap, so the emperor will be so jealous of the two families, and want to suppress the two families, although the two families are not involved in party disputes, but it is inevitable that they will not be driven by interests, if the two families support a certain prince, then the prince will become the king of the world in the future, no matter what his character is, what he does, he will become the king of the world in the future, this is by no means the situation that the old emperor wants to see.

Luo Heng sighed when he thought of this, "With such a heavy mind of our Majesty, our two families can be described as two sharp swords hanging in Your Majesty's heart!" Brother Maude, I think we're going to have to keep a lower profile in the near future! ”

Li Guangshen nodded approvingly, sighed and stopped talking, Luo Heng didn't say anything, the silence in the room was suffocating, and the air was filled with the smell of nervousness and some disappointment......

Five days later, outside the Chaoyang Gate, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military came to see off Li Kun, the Duke of Ji, and after Li Kun said goodbye to everyone, he urged the war horse to go to the East China Sea with 50,000 soldiers.

Ten miles outside the city, Li Kun saw a carriage parked by the pavilion in front of him, and two people were sitting on two other horses......
