Chapter 530: Hot Potato
It has been a year since the six princes ascended the throne.
In the cold winter, Dugu Yin sent Yu Zhuoqi to support the border thieves, wanting to attack the Shengguo.
Since the death of the first emperor, the soldiers stationed at the border pass have been even more demoralized, and no one has been demoralized, so that when they were attacked, they were broken by the enemy in just one night.
In order to prevent the destruction of the city from continuing, the general sent soldiers back to the capital overnight to convey the news to His Majesty, the Sixth Prince.
The six princes sitting on the dragon chair clenched their hands into fists tightly, and the anger on one face was on the verge of exploding, as if they would spill out the anger in their hearts anytime and anywhere.
The hundred officials above the hall were silent, and no one dared to say anything at all, so they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
The sixth prince still tried his best to contain the anger in his heart, and sank his breath, before looking at this group of people and asking coldly, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if any of you are willing to go to the border pass to support?" ”
On weekdays, there are many people who are courteous to the six princes, but now when they really encounter something, no one dares to stand up to solve the most critical matter at the moment, and even those generals who have no one in their eyes are silent at this time.
If the original six princes still wanted to calm their anger as much as possible and deal with this matter calmly, but when he saw the current situation, he couldn't swallow this breath, he directly raised his hand and slammed it on the table, and his whole body exuded anger.
The officials and courtiers didn't dare to say a word, or even gasp.
"Waste, a bunch of waste, I don't want you to eat for nothing, if you can't come up with a solution, no one will want to leave here alive today."
Maybe the former six princes could barely pretend to be a Ming Jun, but now he didn't hide the anger in his heart at all, and directly reprimanded him fiercely.
When the hundred officials heard this, they realized the seriousness of this matter.
If it is really because they can't find a suitable way to be beheaded, in the face of this situation, everyone is afraid in their hearts, and it is impossible to die willingly.
But with such a hot potato, no one dares to stand up and take over.
After all, no matter what, everyone knows that the border thieves can capture three cities in one fell swoop, which also shows that they are becoming more and more reckless, and because of the successive victories, they have already boosted their morale, but now they are regressing again and again, and even losing three cities, in this case, it is impossible to defeat and repel the enemy.
Everyone look at each other, you look at me, I look at you, but no one dares to go out and take on such a heavy responsibility.
The sixth prince naturally understood the current situation, but as the emperor, it was impossible for him to sit idly by and ignore this matter.
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten General Hui, who has always been a heroic killer on the battlefield? They have always been fearless of hardships and dangers, and presumably now, even in such a difficult environment as the border pass, they are still able to win the battle and recapture the three ruined cities for the emperor. ”
The person who said this was a celebrity around the six princes in the court.
Not only did he not offend everyone present, but he also chose a suitable candidate for the Six Princes.
When he said this, the others chimed in, thinking that his words were all right.
"Yes, Your Majesty, according to Weichen's point of view, General Hui is the most suitable person immediately."
"General Hui and General Wu have been killing enemies on the battlefield for many years, and they are full of experience, and they will definitely not be able to defeat the battle."
Hearing so many courtiers speak like this, the sixth prince couldn't help but clench his hands tightly again, he was an enemy everywhere because he was afraid of the Hui family, but according to the current situation, the only people he could send out to solve this tricky matter were probably only Hui Yuzhong and Wu of the Hui family.
But after thinking about it, if Hui Yuzhong hadn't solved this problem, it would have been impossible to escape alive.
The sixth prince sneered, quietly put away the careful calculation in his eyes, and ordered this matter to continue.
Hui Yuzhong obviously didn't expect that the six princes would treat their Hui family like this.
Compared with the Wu family and Hui Yuzhong, who had a calm face, the most angry was Hui Shangxian, who was young and strong.
He clenched his fists and slammed them on the table, and scolded without any cover, "Why, why have good errands never been our family's share, and now that we are in trouble, there is a hot potato that is thrown to our family." ”
Looking at Hui Shangxian's appearance, Wu's face sank, and he rebuked a little seriously, "Shangxian, you must know that the wall has ears, and this kind of thing must not be mentioned again in the future." ”
No matter how indignant Hui Yuzhong was, he was a person who had gone through all kinds of hardships after all, and his edges and corners had already been smoothed out.
Hui Yuzhong stretched out his hand and patted Hui Shangxian's shoulder, but sighed lightly, "Shangxian, you must know that our Hui family has been suppressed countless times now, and what the current emperor wants is to rely on us to solve this problem, so no matter how difficult it is, we have to do these things, otherwise it will be a crime of disobeying the holy decree." ”
As a last resort, Hui Yuzhong and Hui Shangxian, father and son, still went into battle with scarves.
Seeing Hui Yuzhong and Hui Shangxian pack up their things and leave the Hui family directly, Qi Zhen, who was waiting next to him, couldn't help but have red eyes, and tears fell directly, "Where is the emperor asking them to solve the problem, it is clear that he threw such a hot potato to them." ”
The Wu clan could fully understand the meaning of Qi Zhen's words.
But she had always lived on the battlefield and knew that if she lost, it would be the people around her who would suffer.
Instead of trusting others, it is better to trust Hui Yuzhong, who has always been experienced.
Wu gently stretched out his hand and patted Qi Zhen on the shoulder, just mentioning her, "Qi Zhen, maybe this is indeed a hot potato for our family, but only if our family goes out to fight the enemy, will it be possible to win." ”
When Hui Shangyi learned that his father and younger brother had set off from the capital to fight the enemy, he wanted to follow him to help.
Xiao Li had been in contact with Dugu Yin, and she knew how despicable and despicable Yu Zhuoqi was beside this person, she couldn't wait to kill this person to relieve the hatred in her heart, but because of many obstacles, she had to swallow this breath.
Seeing that Hui Shangyi was about to leave after packing up, Xiao Li still stepped forward and hugged him with some reluctance, "Shangyi, you must pay attention to safety along the way, be careful in everything, I will wait here with Yue'er for you to come back." ”
Yue'er, who was lying in the small cradle, seemed to have woken up, and she grinned at Hui Shangyi, wanting to reach out for Hui Shangyi to hug her.
Seeing this, Xiao Li hurriedly went to hug Yue'er over, and said to her softly, "Yue'er, your father is now going to the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely, and your father will definitely come back safe and sound." ”
Even if Hui Shangyi was always concerned about Monk Xiao Li's infant daughter, he had to solve the current problem.
Now, Hui Shangyi not only wants to drive out the anti-thieves, but also wants to test the current combat strength of Shen Mo and the others, after all, he has made many improvements before, and he has not experimented so far.
Xiao Fan wanted to follow Hui Shangyi to go into battle to kill the enemy, but Hui Shangyi had already seen through his thoughts.
He stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Fan's shoulder, and said to him with a serious face, "Xiao Fan, I know that you want to go with us to kill the enemy and avenge those innocent people, but you should also know the current situation very well, no matter what, you have to stay here to protect the safety of Li Li and Yue'er, and no one can stay here." ”
Besides, Xiao Fan is still very young, and Hui Shangyi doesn't want Xiao Fan to make a living in any danger.
Hearing these things explained by Hui Shangyi, Xiao Fan nodded heavily, and responded without the slightest hesitation, "Brother Shangyi, don't worry, as long as I am still by my sister and Yue'er's side, I will definitely protect their safety and not let anyone get close to them." ”
Looking at Xiao Fan's sensible appearance, Hui Shangyi smiled with satisfaction.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Fan's head, and after explaining something, he was about to set off with everyone.
When Hui Shangyi left, Xiao Li couldn't help but stop him who wanted to leave.
"Shang Yi, you wait, I still have something to give you."
Hearing this, Hui Shangyi was inevitably a little curious, he stopped his steps, turned to look at Xiao Li, and asked about the situation with some confusion, "Li Li, what else do you have to explain?" ”
It's not that he explained anything, but Xiao Li couldn't rest assured.
She handed all the pills she had developed during this time to Hui Shangyi, and came with him carefully and seriously, "Shangyi, this is the medicine for external application of abrasions, those are all internal medicines, you go this time, I don't know what danger you will encounter, I can't be by your side all the time, no matter what, I can do very little, I can only give you all these medicines." ”
Looking at Xiao Li's serious appearance, Hui Shangyi gently stretched out his hand to rub her head, and smiled helplessly, "Li Li, I know that you are concerned about the safety of our big guys, but you should also know that we are here to kill the enemy......"
Xiao Li pursed his lips, but couldn't help but say a few more words, "Shangyi, you still have to take it, you can rest assured if you take me." ”
