Chapter 411: The lesser of two evils
Zhao Jinghuan was reading the secret report from the Western Regions, and when he saw Chu Yunzhao barging in without saying hello, he motioned for Rong Jiu to retreat, Rong Jiu walked out of the study with an expressionless face, and thoughtfully closed the door for the two of them.
With his understanding of Chu Yunzhao, he must have quarreled with Zhao Jinghuan for a long time.
He was in no hurry to go in and deliver tea.
"Because you're better suited to stay in the capital than I am." Zhao Jinghuan looked at the secret report repeatedly, and said without raising his head, "The patrol battalion and the forbidden army are in the hands of you and the prince of Chu, with you here, I have no worries." ”
After Xu Pei left, the king of Chu commanded the forbidden army.
With their father and son here, that's why he can walk with peace of mind.
"It's enough for my father to be alone in the capital." Chu Yunzhao sat down in front of him very angrily and glared at him angrily, "You said that you were going to go together, why did you go back on your word and talk nothing?" ”
He knew all about the Western Regions that Zhao Jinghuan had invited.
What's even more infuriating is that Zhao Jinghuan actually hid it from him and didn't reveal any news to him in advance.
"I never said I was going with you." Zhao Jinghuan said calmly, "You are not my princess, why should I go in and out with you?" ”
"It's useless to talk about it." Chu Yunzhao's attitude was very resolute, "Anyway, I'm going to go to the Western Regions, if you don't agree to pull it down, what is the love, your legs are on me, you can't care about it." ”
The grasslands of the Western Regions are vast, and horses are galloping.
It's much more fun than the capital, and more importantly, he doesn't have to face the lord of Nanping when he goes to the Western Regions, and he doesn't want to marry her.
"I'm going because my princess is pregnant......" Seeing his unreasonable look, Zhao Jinghuan couldn't help but shudder in front of him, and it was difficult to hide his joy between his eyebrows, "My child will be born next fall, and I will be a father." ”
"Really?" Chu Yunzhao was also a little surprised, "When did it happen?" ”
It's just that this has anything to do with going to the Western Regions?
"I just found out yesterday." Zhao Jinghuan said proudly, "So I can't let you go to the Western Regions, you have to protect the safety of my wife and children in the capital, the matter over there in the Western Regions, don't worry, I promise to fight Di Er for a hundred years and not dare to attack Daliang." ”
"I keep your wife and children safe?" Chu Yunzhao blinked his eyes and said incredulously, "Why don't you protect yourself?" ”
"Do you know Diar better than I do?" Zhao Jinghuan asked rhetorically, "Do you know Di Er's birthday?" Do you know if he likes to eat sweet or salty? ”
"Even if I don't know that, I can be your helper." Chu Yunzhao strongly recommended himself, "You know me, although my skills are not as good as Rong Jiu, and my calculations are not as good as Zhou Yi, but I can talk to you or something, and I have a lot of discussion when I encounter anything, so I am better than those subordinates of yours!" ”
From childhood to adulthood, they mingled all day long.
Even except that they couldn't enter the cave room together, they had done everything together, and they were closer than brothers.
"Why don't you understand?" Zhao Jinghuan crumpled the secret report into a ball and slapped him with a look of disgust, "It's not what it used to be, do you think you can continue to visit Qinglou and eat flower wine in the capital?" From today on, you have to strengthen your defense, and strictly guard against those dark lines that have slipped through the Western Regions, Nightshade is still imprisoned in the palace, do you think those people in the Western Regions can give up? Look at this, you'll be busy in the future. ”
A few days ago, a group of tea merchants from the Western Regions entered from Fancheng.
There is a hidden line of Tianxiang Pavilion lurking inside.
Chu Yunzhao unfolded the secret report and couldn't help but slap the table: "This is not endless!" ”
"So you have a great responsibility and can't leave the capital." Zhao Jinghuan said seriously, "Only if you stay in the capital, I can go to the Western Regions with confidence, after I leave, my Jingwang Mansion will be entrusted to you, remember, you have to be strict against King Qin, although he said that he was sick, but now that we are not here, if he has a different heart...... The stakes of this matter, you should know. ”
Except for Chu Yunzhao, he didn't trust anyone.
"If he is like that, this side of the capital will be dangerous......" Chu Yunzhao realized the danger of the situation and said busily, "Then you are still going?" ”
What if the king of Qin took advantage of the absence of the three kings in the capital to kill the king and rebel?
"The lesser of two evils." Zhao Jinghuan pinched his brows and said, "If we can win the battle in the Western Regions, maybe the capital will be stable, so at this time, I have to go to the Western Regions, you can't make trouble from it, you have to listen to me." ”
Chu Yunzhao was relieved at this time.
sighed, and said after a while, "You can rest assured that you will go, there is me here in the capital, as long as I am here, I will definitely not let them succeed, and I will also send more people to protect your Jingwang Mansion strictly, and I will not let outsiders take advantage of it." ”
Zhao Jinghuan nodded: "I believe in you." ”
"When are you leaving?" Chu Yunzhao asked.
"Although the emperor didn't speak, I can't wait any longer, and I'll leave in five days." Zhao Jinghuan said and took a key from the drawer and pushed it in front of Chu Yunzhao, "This is the key to my study, you can come in at any time, I will clean up all the official documents and send them out in the next few days, this is just a study." ”
"You better hand it over to Princess Jing for safekeeping!" Chu Yunzhao pushed back.
Anyway, it's also the key to King Jing's mansion.
He's not good with it......
"No, my princess is pregnant, so she has to raise the baby in the backyard with peace of mind, and she can't come to the front yard." Zhao Jinghuan pushed back, "And when I'm not there, this place will also be closed, the house is empty, I'm worried that she will hurt the scene...... Just when you came, help me clean up, you know, I don't want outsiders to come in this study. ”
Chu Yunzhao: "......"
Well, he just asked him to help clean up.
Hearing that Zhao Jinghuan would leave in five days, Xie Jinyi couldn't sit still, so he immediately asked Ziyu to go to the medical hall and pharmacy to get all the ready-made pills, put them in cloth bags, and mark them so that Zhao Jinghuan could take them to the Western Regions.
Dr. He was with the army before and had the most experience in going on expeditions.
It is said that the weather is gradually getting warmer, and more medicines such as mosquitoes, insects and scorpion venom should be made in case of emergency, because the marching and fighting are all in tents, and it is normal to encounter a snake or a scorpion or something, and many soldiers are not killed on the battlefield, but are bitten to death by these poisons.
Ahem, isn't it because of this that Prince Xian died young!
Xie Jinyi felt that Dr. He's proposal was very pertinent.
After repeatedly considering a few prescriptions for deworming, he simply called Meilan, Zhuju and Atractylodes ginger to Jingwangfu to make deworming powder, and Xuankong also came...... It's just that he didn't come to make medicinal powder, but to ask the master: "The princess still couldn't take your master back after all, maybe she forgot it?" ”
"I haven't forgotten, but there have been too many things that have happened recently, and it's not a good time to pick up Master back." Xie Jinyi said apologetically, "Don't worry, Your Highness will go to the Western Regions this time, and I will let him pay attention to this matter." ”
Originally, she wanted to ask Emperor Xianqing to recall Master Shanren in the name of the imperial court.
But now that both sides are going to fight, this matter is simply impossible.
