Chapter 10 Critical Illness
Wen Ruyi, who has always advocated Feng Xianji to go out of the southwest, also voted against it this time, and he thought to himself, "I still remember the demeanor of Brother Baisheng, Brother Zhou Qi, and General Su Yong, which of them is not a victorious general who is undefeated on the battlefield with one enemy and ten times?" But now that the grass on their graves is half a man's height, do you still hope that our majesty will change his mind? ”
Feng Xianji understood that they were right, which was why he didn't like to leave the southwest for so many years. He already has a reputation for being a good fighter, so he can't put any other good name on himself, otherwise he will be a thorn in the side of His Majesty. His Majesty's spies were placed in the palace and treated politely, and the women His Majesty stuffed, he also slept obediently...... What is all this for? Isn't it just to be able to exchange for peace on one side?
"The king knows what you think, and he understands your kindness to him. If it is a power struggle in the court, this king will never interfere, and they will love which one is on which one. But this time it's different......" He sat there, as if he had a thousand pounds, looking at everyone heavily, "With the flames of war, it will only be the people who will suffer, not those high-ranking clan nobles." This king was born from the grassroots, and he has no family background that he can handle, and it all depends on your hard work to get to where he is today. ”
Everyone looked at him, silent and helpless.
"This king joined the army back then because his hometown was affected by the war and couldn't stay anymore. Brother Yum and Brother Zhou Qi also came with us like this, and the three of us chose to join the army to protect our family and defend the country, not to worship the prime minister. Feng Xianji looked at everyone deeply, "This king thanks you for your kindness, but if you ignore the people in dire straits for your own gains and losses, this is definitely not my Feng Xianji's personality." ”
Everyone looked at each other, although they already knew that this was the result, but they still couldn't help but persuade them.
After being silent for a long time, Wen Ruyi stood up, put away the worried face just now, and quickly said, "Okay, since the prince has decided to send troops, then we will naturally follow with all our might." Next, why don't you discuss how to fight this battle, and how to deal with the aftermath after the battle? ”
"Yes, although we can't follow the prince on the battlefield, we can always work together to ensure that the prince has no worries about his life after the chaos."
"That's right, the prince's strength can't be in vain, let the people of the world know who is the one who abandons selfish desires and has the world in mind."
The strategists said it word by word, and they rarely refuted Feng Xianji's decision, even if he disagreed with them. What they want to do is to push Feng Xianji to a wider place, so that more people can see that he is different from those who are vying for power and profit.
Feng Xianji stood up in the midst of this discussion, he knew that this battle was about to change the pattern of the world. Perhaps, he will step into a higher position and set foot in that field that he never thought of. So what's the fear? Did the centurion of that year think of the day when he sat in the southwest today?
For a moment, many images of the past flashed in his mind, and one of them was one he would never forget.
- "Does the King of the Southwest think this palace is pretty?" The man had looked at him haughtily with raised eyebrows, as if he was sure that he would not give a second answer.
- "Beautiful. ”
He had never seen such a good-looking woman in his life, so much so that he remembered it firmly in his heart at a glance. Feng Xianji only hoped that she was really the arrogant and domineering imperial concubine, at least she could protect herself.
On August 10, Feng Xianji, the king of the southwest, led 80,000 Shu troops to attack the hinterland of King Qing.
——
"Boom!"
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a deafening thunderclap, like the dull wrath of God.
Tang Feng stood at the door of the main hall of Chengqian Palace, leaning against the door frame to enjoy the pouring rain outside. Such a heavy rain seems to submerge the heavens and the earth and return to chaos. She crossed her arms and leisurely looked at the rain scene, hoping that this day would be the end of everyone, there would be no fighting, no war, no intrigues, and everything would return to the original appearance of the world.
It would be great if the dream came true.
"Mother, it's not good!" In the distance, Little Gold quickly approached with an oil-paper umbrella. Such a devastating rain umbrella is naturally useless, and when he approached the umbrella, the whole person was dripping, and after a while, a puddle of water gathered under his feet.
"Manager Xu asked the servants to pass the word, saying that His Majesty's wound is infected and he is not awake from the fever!" Xiao Jinzi spoke very quickly and authentically.
Sure enough, a stable and ordinary life does not belong to her. Tang Feng stood up straight, although she didn't have any pity for Xu Kangdi, but this was not the time for him to die.
"Is it dangerous?"
Xiao Jinzi nodded constantly, and even crossed it once, leaned into Tang Feng's ear, and said nervously, "Manager Xu asked the slave to tell Niangniang, Your Majesty may not be able to survive this time." Xu Zhong had already secretly fallen to the imperial concubine, and such a major change would naturally try his best to tell her.
Tang Feng was stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses and shouted loudly, "Lotus root, bring the cloak of the main palace!" ”
If the emperor dies at this time, the successor must be the eldest prince, everyone knows that the eldest prince has a long-standing grudge against Tang Feng, and Tang Feng's fate can be imagined.
When he was walking in the rain, Tang Feng no longer felt that the rain had nothing to do with him. Countless situations flashed through her mind, each corresponding to her own fate. As an arrogant and arrogant favorite concubine, all her confidence was given by the man who was lying in the Heart Cultivation Hall and wandering at the Ghost Gate, if he left, her years of business would be wiped out.
Wait a minute.
The lotus root almost hit the person in front of her headlong, and when she stopped abruptly, she was startled, "Master, what's wrong?" ”
Tang Feng stood in the rain, letting the big raindrops lap on her body, and she suddenly remembered something.
The people who single-handedly concocted the tragedy of exterminating the clan back then have been cleaned up by her one by one, and now the murderer behind the scenes is also lying on the bed and life and death are unpredictable, what is she panicking about? Her revenge has been avenged. As Feng Yu's mission, it has taken her seventeen years to completely complete it.
"Lotus root."
"The slave is here."
"Let's go back." She looked up suddenly, and the light that had been hiding her eyes was extinguished.
The lotus root was stunned, she didn't know why the person who was still running forward a moment ago had changed his mind in an instant.
Tang Feng turned around, her shoulders completely collapsed, she knew it was time to meet her end. Xu Kangdi, Xu Hua, Song Ren...... The culprits who killed her relatives have been punished one by one, and it is her turn. She, a wicked person in the eyes of others, cannot escape the fate of being punished.
After taking a step, she was suddenly pulled by a reverse force. Tang Feng lowered her head, and on her wrist was a white and tender hand, looking slender but powerful, she looked up in the direction of her fingers-
The lotus root bit her lip and looked at her, even though the bean-sized raindrops blurred her eyes, and her eyes had to be opened very hard and hard, but she held her master's hand firmly without any slackness.
"Lotus root?"
"Master, you can't go back." Lotus Root's eyes were red, she knew what she would face once she went back, and she also knew what her master had decided to make when he decided to turn around and walk back.
"Master...... You said you want to find me a good family. "The tears of the lotus root fell together with the rain, and I couldn't tell where the bitterness in my mouth came from," ...... Don't you still want to go outside, how can you give up so easily? ”
Tang Feng seemed to know her personal palace maid for the first time, she looked at those reddened eyes, stubborn, persistent, and unwilling to admit defeat...... The most important thing is that she is preventing Tang Feng from going to her "fate".
The lotus root almost used all her strength to put it on her right hand, she knew that it was not in line with the palace rules to do so, and she would even be bored by her master. But after being with her master for so long, she didn't want to see her have a bad end, she didn't want to see that there was no light in those eyes that were amorous at every turn, and she didn't want to watch her admit defeat to fate so easily......
Tang Feng lowered her head and broke her fingers one by one, and when despair filled the lotus root's heart, she heard her say, "I know, I will continue to move forward." ”
She hadn't done a few good things in her life, but now she suddenly thought that she wanted to protect these people who treated her sincerely under her wing, and wanted to be a person who would be liked by a few people.
The lotus root closed her eyes, her nose fluttered, and soon, she raised her hand to wipe her tears, and continued to follow her master to trot towards the Heart Cultivation Palace.
