Although he is old now, he is not going to die immediately. His son is so impatient that he has already cultivated power in the DPRK.

waited until the people of these two factions were no longer admonishing one by one, and the emperor opened his mouth, "Let King Xi go, after all, the princess is the princess of the Xiongnu clan, and King Xi can only play a role in appeasing when he goes." ”

The emperor's words had already spoken, and although the prince was not convinced, he still did not squeak again under the signal of Zhou Ze's eyes.

Cangxi stepped forward and knelt down, "Erchen took the order." ”

This early dynasty Fu Qian's heart was frightened, he was afraid that the people around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would ask the emperor for his life without knowing the sky. How can the prince's hands be placed in the barracks, let alone 200,000 elite soldiers?

After getting off the court, the prince seemed to be waiting for someone at the gate of the palace, knowing that Fu Qian had come to Zhou Zecai and bowed, "Father-in-law." ”

Fu Qian was naturally ashamed, and hurriedly returned the salute, "The prince is serious." ”

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Ze also went straight to the point and asked, "What does my father-in-law think of this matter?" ”

Since he chose to take refuge in the prince, Fu Qian also knew everything, "The old minister thought that the prince's hand would not be stretched out to the barracks for the time being. ”

A heavy rain washed the streets of Jinling City very clean, but the downpour could not wash away the disgusting atmosphere that permeated the court.

Fu Ci learned from Fu Qian that King Xi was going to go on an expedition. She became more and more convinced that King Xi was a good move to take revenge on Zhou Ze, but did she really have to design to marry King Xi in order to take revenge? The memories of her previous life told Fu Ci that she did not have much intersection with King Xi.

Aunt Sun called the distracted Fu Ci back, "What is the master thinking?" ”

Fu Ci sent out the people left and right, and said to Aunt Sun, "You go out earlier today to buy some needlework for me, go to King Xi's mansion by the way, and hand over this letter to Lord Xi by hand." With that, Fu Ci took off the token from his waist and handed it to Aunt Sun.

"What does the master want to do?" Aunt Sun glanced at the letter in her hand and asked.

Fu Ci pursed his lips and smiled, "Let King Xi accept my love." ”

Aunt Sun has never been able to guess Fu Ci's thoughts, so she has to act according to Fu Ci's intentions.

When she came to the door of King Xi's mansion, the guards didn't dare to stop Aunt Sun when they looked at the sign, but they didn't dare to take the liberty of putting her into the mansion, so they had to invite Cang'er. After asking, Aunt Sun said that she was Fu Porcelain's person, and Cang'er went to report to Cangxi.

"Interesting." Cang Xi tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Bring her in." ”

Cang'er got the order and brought Aunt Sun to Cangxi.

Aunt Sun didn't say much, and handed over the letter with a bow, "What my master explained, I want to hand it over to the prince by hand." ”

King Xi glanced at the letter, and did not open it, but asked, "How is the rabbit that your master brought back last time?" ”

Aunt Sun couldn't figure out what medicine these two people had bought in their throats, one asked to deliver the letter, and the other asked the rabbit.

But the master still had to answer respectfully about the things he asked, "The master took good care of the rabbit, and it was a lot bigger than when he brought it back." ”

Cangxi nodded and didn't speak, "Go back." ”

Since King Xi issued an eviction order, Aunt Sun didn't want to stay long, so she had to leave after saluting.

After Aunt Sun left, Cang Er asked, "Master, what is written in the letter?" Isn't this Third Miss Fu Fu taking a fancy to you? ”

Cang Xi ignored Cang Er, and threw it into his arms after reading the letter, "Look for yourself." ”

Cang'er took the letter and read it for a long time, but there were only two words on the letter, which was very incomprehensible in Cang'er's opinion.

"Master, who are these three young ladies asking us to watch out for?" Cang Er asked.

"Naturally, he is the one to watch out for."

Hearing this, if it weren't for the fact that Cang Xi was the master, Cang Er would have the heart to slap him twice. What's the difference between that and not saying it?

But seeing that Cang Xi's face was serious and it was not good to ask again, he had to repeat it twice, "Who should be warned?" ”

Cangxi didn't pay attention to this confused little follower and entered the house alone.

Why did Fu Ci help him? What can this girl know without leaving the door, and why would she give him such a note?

Although she couldn't understand it, Cangxi felt more and more that this was the third lady of the Fu Mansion and not an ordinary boudoir daughter. She must have known something, otherwise she wouldn't have let the maid beside her hand hand over the letter to him.

"It's getting more and more interesting." Cangxi muttered.

Since I saw this bullied third lady in the Guogong Mansion, I felt that the beauty was born in the wrong place. When he saw the little white rabbit start to bite back, he just sighed that there was one more person in this world who lacked innocence. It wasn't until I saw her wisdom and patience that I felt that this play was good.

But who can tell whether the real and the false on this stage are sacrificed or not?

"Master, the soldiers and horses of the Holy Upper Point are already waiting in front of the door," Cang'er reported.

"Give the order to go down, and leave in a quarter of an hour." After Cangxi finished speaking, he entered the bedroom unhurriedly and changed into a military uniform.

The silver armor and the holding of a long sword in his hand, the hilt of the sword is red and a small seal is engraved on it, which shows the identity and momentum of the sword bearer.

As soon as Cangxi walked to the door, he saw Fu Yuyue standing outside the door.

Fu Xuanyue had only seen Cangxi reading and playing chess in the palace before, and that feeling of politeness made her engrave it in her heart just by looking at it. Now, this uniform has a little more heroism.

Cangxi ignored Fu Xuanyue and walked straight over, in Cangxi's eyes, Fu Xuanyue was like a passerby. If you have to do anything to do with it, I've met one or two times over there.

"Lord Wang!" Seeing that Cangxi ignored herself, Fu Xuanyue couldn't take care of her daughter's shyness, so she snorted.

Hearing the call, Cang Xifang stopped, "I don't know what the county lord is looking for me?" ”

Fu Yuyue walked up to Cangxi, "Can you take a step to speak?" ”

"There's no need for that, is it?" Cangxi's sentence sounded like a rhetorical question, but it was as if it was determined.

"King Xi!" Fu Xuan called out, "Isn't the King of Kung Fu who has a few words of Kung Fu also refusing to give him an appointment?" ”

Cangxi didn't pay any attention to Fu Xuanyue, and the three thousand iron horses set off, and Fu Xuanyue watched these horses move forward step by step. The man at the head didn't look back and whipped the horse to urge him, which was really ruthless.

Fu Xuanyue watched the people gradually move away, and gradually could no longer see the leader, and cried in front of the Xiwang Mansion.

The grandmother beside her refused to give up no matter how comforted her, holding the sachet embroidered for Cangxi in her hand, "Is he really a ruthless person?" ”

Fu Yuyue knew that Cangxi was not close to women, and she never wore sachets or other gadgets, but she just wanted to try it and see if she could be the first person to impress Cangxi.

After the army walked away, Cang Er asked, "Master, why don't you say goodbye to the county lord?" ”

Cang Xi glared at him, "You also want to ask about the master?" ”

Although Cangxi is an indifferent person, he is not a ruthless person. On weekdays, Cang'er still dared to joke with him, so he said, "Also, the future princess of the lord, the slave should not ask." ”

"More and more unruly", seeing that Cang Xi's face was a little gloomy, Cang Er had no choice but to shut up.

After Cang'er closed his mouth, Cang Xi began to think about it, Cang'er's words were good, and he could feel Fu Xuanyu's affection. It's just that people who are destined to have no fate don't have to pay attention.

Thinking of this, Cangxi felt that her attitude towards Fu Yuyue was correct. gave her hope, and then put it away ruthlessly, it would hurt her.

Walking and walking, seeing that the sun was moving southward, Cangxi thought that it should be noon, so he gave an order to let the soldiers stop and rest and eat something before hurrying.

It was rare for the soldiers to meet such a considerate master, and they thanked Dade one after another, and then dismounted to set up camp tents and cook things.

Cang Xi shook his head, maybe his parents had led the troops like this before.

Cangxi smiled, reminiscing, trying to find a little shadow of his parents from his memory, but was interrupted by Cang'er-

"Master, our grain and grass have been burned?"

Cangxi was startled, but there was no wave on his face, and he squeezed out eight words from between his teeth: "Take someone to extinguish the fire and find the real murderer!" ”

Could it be that this is what Fu Ci asked him to beware?

Cang'er led people to extinguish the fire in time, and the soldiers were not killed or injured, but most of the grain and grass were burned to ashes.

Cang Xi had never been so angry, although Cang Er tried his best to tell the good things when he came to report, he could still feel how much anger was hidden on Cang Xi's calm face.

Cang Er let the left and right retreat, and then said his conjecture, "Master, there are people from the crown prince or the eldest prince in our team." ”

Cangxi had already thought of this layer since the fire started, but there were too many people close to the convoy escorting grain and grass, and if they were investigated one by one, it would not only waste time but also make the army discouraged, and the gains outweighed the losses.

"Don't startle the snake, keep an eye on it." Cangxi commanded.

"Master, why don't we set up camp here tonight? The soldiers were also tired. Cang Er said.

Camp here?

Cangxi was a little suspicious that his little follower didn't come out with his brains. Since the people of the crown prince or the eldest prince have a way to place people in the army, why can't they send people to ambush? Encamped here, his 3,000 people did not occupy the right time and place, could they all accompany him to die here because of this battle for the throne?

"Twenty miles ahead to the water's edge, where to go."

Cang'er wanted to say to his prince that it was not easy for the soldiers in the army to move forward if they were unstable, but when they thought of the grain and grass being burned, if they were delayed, they were afraid that most of the soldiers would starve to death on the way.

Cang'er told Cangxi's thoughts to the soldiers, and the soldiers naturally complained bitterly. Those who are bold even want to trespass into the camp of the king of the seal. One or two people can still stop them if they want to break into Cang'er, and ten or twenty Cang'er will be a little lacking.

When he was fighting with the soldiers, Cangxi suddenly came out of the tent, "Which one wants to break in?" ”

Everyone paused, and only a general in his early thirties knelt in front of Cang Xi, "The last general, Cheng Yue, dared to ask King Xi, at the moment, our army is disheartened, how to protect yourself if you continue to move forward if you encounter a surprise attack?" ”

Cangxi personally helped up the general named Cheng Yue, "Stay here, if you encounter a surprise attack, you can't hide." ”

Seeing that Cheng Yue was not convinced, Cangxi said again, "This king will naturally not gamble with the lives of three thousand soldiers, and I hope the general can rest assured." ”

Cangxi was so sincere, Cheng Yue didn't say much, and said with a wave of his hand, "The last general will listen to the prince." ”

"Keep goingβ€”"

After Cang Er gave the order, he immediately returned to Cang Xi's side, "Ye wants to promote him?" ”

King Xi smiled, "There are your own people in the army, and you will live longer in the future." ”

Cang Er naturally knew what Cang Xi meant.

Although the emperor is not convinced of old age, the dragon body has been deteriorating in recent years. Although the crown prince was established, the eldest prince was still eyeing the tiger, and the third prince held the military power. If there is a real fight, it is good that the Cang family can choose the right master, but if the new emperor is not chosen to ascend the throne, how can he be kept?

Even if Cangxi has a sign in his hand to avoid death, what about the two hundred and three people of the Cang family? have become the stepping stones of the new emperor?

Every time I think of this, Cang'er feels a chill in my heart!

Nothing like this can happen!

Twenty miles is not a long distance, but because of low morale, Cangxi and his party still walked for an afternoon.

When he arrived at Shuize, Cangxi gave an order to set up camp. This season should not have been hunting, but the food and grass in the army were really limited, so Cangxi had no choice but to take the responsibility of ignoring the national law and ordered the soldiers to hunt in the forest.

When the camp tent was set up, Cangxi summoned Cang Er and ordered, "Go and call General Cheng." ”

"Yes", Cang'er got the order and quickly brought Cheng Yue to King Xi.

"The last general will knock on the prince!" Cheng Yue knelt down.

"General Cheng, please hurry up," Cangxi said and stepped forward to help him personally.

Judging from the last time I dealt with him, Cheng Yue is a rough person, and there are some things that don't need to be said around the bush.

"This king called the general to come because he wanted to entrust him."

Cheng Yue was about to kneel again, but Cangxi hurriedly stopped, "This king doesn't care about these etiquette. ”

"Yes, but at the behest of the king." Cheng Yue said respectfully.

"This king expects that there are dissidents in the army, and they will definitely attack us tonight while we are not back."

Cang Xi's tone when he spoke was very firm, more than half of the three thousand light horsemen were brothers who had fought with him on the battlefield for many years, and they had no second thoughts about the court and him!

Although Cheng Yue didn't believe Cangxi's words, he was still cautious, "Please make it clear." ”

"This king ordered you to take a thousand light horsemen from the north of the forest to detour to the west side of Daze Lake, and then this king will personally lead the troops, and the two sides will use fireworks as a signal to give him a copy."

Seeing that Cangxi had already planned, Cheng Yue could only receive the order, "The last general will obey the order." ”

"There's General Law."

"Then we will go down and prepare first."

Cangxi nodded, and after Cheng Yue left, he shouted outside the tent, "Cang'er come in." ”

Cang Er entered the camp lightly, for fear that his master would be angry with him.

"You follow Cheng Yue tonight."

Hearing this, Cang Er immediately retorted, "I follow him, who will protect the master?" ”

Cang Er's words amused Cang Xi, in the eyes of his little follower, he didn't move his hands and feet for a few days, and his martial arts regressed so much?

"You can rest assured that you will follow him, and by the way, see if this person is available."

"Yes", Cang Er took the order and asked again, "Master, my subordinates have something to ask." ”

"Why did this king know about the enemy's attack tonight?"

Cang Er nodded, "If they don't sneak attack tonight, our soldiers will be tired, how can they hurry tomorrow?" ”

In fact, Cangxi was not sure, but he could only give it a go. There must be many enemies in the shadows, and only those who have more people will bring food and grass. Right now, for him, no matter how little grain and grass he has, it's a life-saving straw, and he can't let it go!

Although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, Cangxi still looked very determined, "The geese like water and often live together near the lake." On the way we came, the geese suddenly chirped, and we will be frightened. Therefore, judging from it, it is highly likely that there are enemy forces nearby. ”

Cang Er was still a little unwilling, and asked, "The beasts in the forest will also frighten the wild geese." ”

"Geese often live in this area, how can the fright brought by wild beasts be so great?" Cang Xi glanced at Cang Er, and in the face of Cang Xi's gaze, Cang Er had no choice but to shut up.

"My subordinates are going to prepare."

Cangxi was alone in the camp tent, holding the note that Fu Ci sent to her, who did this girl ask him to watch out for?

Cangxi thought about the people involved in this matter, the eldest prince would never put his hand in the barracks, he knew very well, although the second prince had a little military power in his hands, but he was not so bold to let people do it in Gyeonggi, who would it be?

Cang Xi was thinking about it, when his hand accidentally touched the teacup, and the tea soaked the note that Fu Ci passed to him. Cangxi hurriedly took care of it, but was surprised to see the three words in red on the note - three princes!

Cangxi didn't care about cleaning up the mess on the table, and pinched the note and looked at it.

Chengzhou has a method of writing without words: writing on white paper with a weakly acidic liquid, and when the paper dries, the handwriting disappears. When encountering another liquid that contains a weak alkaline substance, the handwriting will reappear.

All the information was spinning quickly in Cangxi's mind: the three princes, notes, grain and grass......

After thinking about it, Cangxi decided to believe Fu Ci. Cangxi believes that this woman who has been rescued by him again and again has no reason to harm him!

"Cang'er come in", Cang'er, who was waiting outside the door, heard this shout and hurriedly entered the camp.

"What does the prince command?"

Cangxi, who has already decided to gamble, decided to make a big bet!

He is the king, not only to have food and grass, but also to live.

"Let the generals drink the horses with salt water."

As soon as these words came out, Cang Er only felt trembling, "Master, blood-drinking horse?" ”

Seeing that Cang Xi did not object, Cang Er was even more convinced of his guess.
