It was too late, Yun Yuhong still didn't find an open shop to buy food, and in the end, she could only steal into the kitchen of a wealthy family and find two cold steamed buns to temporarily fill her stomach. Yun Yuhong didn't feel sleepy, thinking that it would be better to go to the military camp of Jinghui Army to have a look, or go to see Hu Lewen, the second son of the Marquis of Jinghui, to find out the details.

Not far east of Peicheng City is Koda Pass, behind the pass is the camp of the army, a piece of houses made of earth and wood are neatly arranged, in the dead of night, only some patrolling soldiers in the military palace are still awake, and the others have fallen asleep. Yun Yuhong sneaked in, thought about it, or decided to go to the kitchen to take a look, she was hungry again, no matter how powerful she was, she couldn't control her stomach, which was very unfavorable for her to hide her whereabouts.

At the back of the camp, Yun Yuhong found the kitchen with rows of cauldrons, but, apparently, there are people like Yun Yuhong who don't sleep in the middle of the night to find food, a table is set up outside the kitchen courtyard, and a general with a big waist and a round waist eats a big bowl of noodles given to him by the chef, and shouts to the chef: "This is not enough to eat, Lao Zhang, give the next bowl." ”

Chef Lao Zhang said: "General Chen, what are you doing here, why are you so hungry?" You're in the third bowl. ”

General Chen looked at no one for a while, and said to Lao Zhang: "I went back to Beijing to inquire about the news, the Hou Ye and the eldest prince failed to rebel, and now the family has been imprisoned, and I heard that they will be beheaded in two days." Also, our brothers who entered Beijing some time ago are all dead. ”

Lao Zhang was taken aback: "I have heard some about the rebellion of the Hou Ye in the past two days, but I didn't say that the 50,000 people are dead, and the emperor's hand is too ruthless, that is 50,000 lives." ”

General Chen shook his head and said: "It's not the emperor, it's the eldest princess, don't you know, the famous ghost king is our eldest princess, she went out of the palace since she was a child, and actually formed a ghost king army of no less than 50,000 people, I heard that that night, the ghost king army only used 10,000 horses to kill all of us 50,000 people." ”

Lao Zhang opened his mouth wide, and it took a long time to come back to his senses and say, "Then what should we do, what does the second son say?" ”

General Chen sighed and said: "The second prince is also hesitating, and no one originally told him to rebel, but the eldest prince wrote a letter, saying that he was ordered by the marquis and the third prince died unjustly, and he was afraid that someone would be unfavorable to the Hu family, so he asked him to send troops into Beijing privately in case of emergency." He felt that it was wrong at the time, but with the Hou Ye's instructions, he could only follow it, but now the facts are different from what the eldest prince said. If he leads the troops back now, what will he do here, but if he doesn't go back, the Hu family will be finished. This afternoon, several lieutenants quarreled for a long time, some wanted to return, some insisted on not returning, and the second son was also embarrassed. It wasn't until I came back and said that when the imperial court sent the ghost king, that is, the eldest princess, to take over the Jinghui army and military affairs, everyone stopped, and the Jinghui army was the army of the Hu family, which could not be changed. ”

Lao Zhang also sighed and said, "That means there is another battle to be fought!" ”

General Chen did not answer Lao Zhang's question, so Lao Zhang went back to the next noodles, and after General Chen finished eating the big bowl of noodles, he sat there and waited, probably too tired, and fell asleep after a while. Lao Zhang put the noodles on the table, and did not wake up General Chen, but went back to the house to sleep.

Yun Yuhong walked out, picked up the noodle bowl and started eating, not to mention, Lao Zhang's craftsmanship is good, the noodles are very sweet, and soon a bowl of noodles was solved by Yun Yuhong. Putting down the bowl, Yun Yuhong touched her stomach, thinking that since she came, she would go to meet Hu Ergongzi, and listen to the conversation between the two people, maybe there would be a better way to solve this matter.

After touching the barracks for a long time, Yun Yuhong found a relatively large room in the middle with a few soldiers guarding. According to experience, the main general generally lives in the middle of the house with more soldiers, so Yun Yuhong guessed that this house should be Hu Ergongzi's. Clicked on the guard's acupoint, Yun Yuhong flashed in, the people in the house may not be asleep, but they are very alert, Yun Yuhong woke up as soon as he entered, but he didn't move.

Yun Yuhong felt the change in this person's breathing, and knew that he had woken up, so she smiled and said: "Since you wake up, get up, I have no malicious intentions, I just want to talk to Hu Ergongzi." ”

The person on the bed sat up, Yun Yuhong saw that it was a son in his twenties, with a square face, a calm and capable atmosphere, and he couldn't help nodding in his heart, the sons of Jinghui Hou, only this one looked like a soldier.

Yun Yuhong moved a chair and sat down like a familiar person, and asked, "Are you the second son, Hu Lewen?" ”

Hu Lewen nodded, he was a little surprised to see that the person who came was a girl, but he quickly came back to his senses and asked, "Is Your Excellency the eldest princess?" ”

Yun Yuhong smiled, "I am not only the eldest princess, but also the new ghost king, I have heard about my affairs." ”

Hu Lewen sat opposite Yun Yuhong and said: "The eldest princess is not small, she dares to come to my camp alone, I don't know what the eldest princess has to say." ”

Yun Yuhong took out a letter and said: "I'm here to be a messenger, this is a letter written by Jinghui Hou to the second son, the second son might as well read it." ”

Hu Lewen was surprised, the eldest princess sent a letter, or her father's letter, what is going on, took the thick stack of letters and took a closer look, it was the handwriting of Marquis Jinghui, and the letter wrote in detail the process of this incident and Marquis Jinghui's instructions.

The general meaning of the letter is: He did not know in advance about the transfer of troops into Beijing this time, and Hu Dagongzi did it all without him, and it was Hu Dagongzi who really had the intention of rebelling, but he did not stop it after the incident. Now, the rebellion failed, the 50,000 Jinghui troops sent have been wiped out, and the Hu family has been imprisoned. Originally, he and Liu Xiang wanted to threaten each other with two forces, but the emperor was determined to tolerate the two of them. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Liu clan expelled Liu Xiang and his family from the family, and the coercion no longer worked. The emperor has decreed that the eldest princess should take over the Hu family's army. He is a sinner of the Hu family, and he doesn't want the Hu family to be wiped out because of him, so he finally compromised with the eldest princess, he exchanged the Hu family's 100,000 army for a way out of the Hu family, and the eldest princess promised him that as long as the second son of Hu cooperated, the power of the Jinghui army was handed over to the eldest princess, and the eldest princess would come forward to protect the second son of Hu, and the Hu family would only be exiled and would not be executed. In the end, Marquis Jinghui said to Hu Ergongzi: His father disgraced the first generation of heroic names left by the ancestors of the Hu family to protect the family and defend the country, and hoped that the second son would stop being reckless, retain a trace of blood for the Hu family, and revive the prestige of the Hu family in the future.

Hu Lewen saw tears welling up, he didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this, the eldest brother was ambitious, risking the lives of the family, ignoring the hundred-year reputation of the Hu family, and making such a big mistake, but how could he watch his father and brother die and live alone?

Hu Lewen asked: "Eldest princess, it is not difficult for Hu to hand over the military power of the 100,000 Jinghui army, but this matter has nothing to do with my father, can you also leave him with his life?" ”

Yun Yuhong shook her head, "When he rebelled, he was in full view of everyone, and he was the head of the Hu family, so he couldn't get rid of this matter." Saving your life and the lives of the rest of the Hu family is my biggest concession. ”

"Don't forget, eldest princess, this is the border pass, and Jinghui Army is also related to the gateway of a country." Hu Lewen threatened.

Yun Yuhong frowned and said: "A dignified general guarding the border, he actually used the lives of the people as bargaining chips, and you did it." Let me tell you, it is already an extrajudicial favor to the Hu family, you don't have to think about anything else, and you don't accept the big fight. But don't worry, since I, Yun Yuhong, have come here today, I won't let the soldiers of the Ruifeng Kingdom step into Moyun. ”

Hu Lewen's face turned red, he knew that he was wrong, but he still couldn't save his father's life, he just looked at Yun Yuhong and begged: "Eldest princess, I lost my word, but I can't help my father, I would rather die for my father, and hope that the eldest princess will be fulfilled." ”

"Your filial piety is commendable, but this matter cannot be changed, give you a few days to think about it, and give me an answer before the arrival of the Ghost King Army. But before that, I've heard that there may be changes in the Ruifeng Country, and I hope you can still guard this Moyun portal. ”

"Yes, eldest princess, don't worry, as long as my Jinghui army is here, the Ruifeng soldiers will not be able to enter. It's just that I ask the eldest princess to think about it again, if I can't save my father, I will never hand over the military power of Jinghui to the eldest princess. Hu Lewen insisted.

Yun Yuhong saw that there was no point in talking about things any longer, so she said goodbye and left. Leaving Hu Lewen to read the letter over and over again, he couldn't sleep all night.

In a medical hall in the east of the city, after taking the medicine, the boy in brocade still felt that there was no pain in his body, and the servant had always wondered how the three princes' martial arts were not weak, how did it become like this, and the three princes are also suffering now, he will never tell others, he was beaten by a woman after peeking at a beautiful woman playing in the water and was discovered, it was too embarrassing.

It turned out that this brocade prince was Duanmu Tiancheng, the third prince of Ruifeng Kingdom, and he was also the commander who was ordered to attack Moyun this time, and he originally intended to go into the city to inquire about the situation, and then visit the second prince of Xia Hu tomorrow to see if he could plot against the Jinghui army. Jing Huijun is in an embarrassing situation now, either he is absorbed or destroyed, and the Hu family will not be able to escape death, so the third prince is very confident that he can persuade the second son of Hu to surrender. It's just that he didn't expect such an accident, he was beaten by a woman and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, how could he go to see Hu Ergongzi with this look, not only Hu Ergongzi, he was a little embarrassed to even go back to the camp.

The old doctor came over and explained: "Childe has also suffered some internal injuries, it is best not to move in the past two days, and take care of it." There are several pairs of medicines here, and Childe must take them on time. ”

The servant came over to pay the consultation fee, helped the third prince out of the medical hall and asked, "Shall we go back to the inn or go back?" ”

The third prince thought about it, he couldn't do anything about plotting against Jinghui's army, so he should send someone else. So he sighed and said, "Go back to the inn first, and go back tomorrow." ”
