In the imperial study, there was a written holy decree in front of the table, and the empress hesitated for a long time with the jade seal, but finally covered it.

"Come on, go to the county king's mansion to deliver the decree."

Then a eunuch came and respectfully received the decree, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After the eunuch left, Chen'er walked out from behind, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The county lord is young and vigorous, so it's good to go out and hone and hone. ”

Chen'er can't wait for the county lord to leave Beijing, their Shangshu Mansion is now gaining momentum, and he can't let the county prince's mansion be his way.

It can be said that the empress was able to make a decision so quickly, and Chen'er contributed a lot to this.

At this moment, the empress lamented in her heart, over the years, she has become more and more incomprehensible to what the county lord is doing, and Xuan'er has really grown up.

Chen'er watched the empress worry about the county lord on the sidelines, and felt very uncomfortable.

He learned from his sister that the Junwang Mansion had a faint momentum to suppress the Shangshu Mansion.

Now, the county lord is gone, and General Chen has lost his backer, and the next ......

Seeing that Chen'er was silent, the empress patted his hand, "I haven't been to you these days, you haven't blamed me, right?" ”

Chen'er turned to a smile, "Her Majesty the Empress has a lot of opportunities, and the slave family is worried that Her Majesty the Empress is too late, so how can they blame it?" ”

The empress was very relieved to see that Chen'er was so sensible and so generous and decent.

"Your Majesty, the slave family made lotus seed soup with their own hands, I want to invite Your Majesty to taste it, I wonder if Your Majesty will have time?"

The empress wanted to come to the county lord and be punished to the frontier to suffer, and the rumors outside would be self-defeating, and she also gave an explanation to the hundred officials.

Now that the matter is settled, it is better to go out for a walk and relax.

So, the empress replied, "It's okay at noon, I'm just going to try Chen'er's craftsmanship."

Immediately afterwards, Chen'er took the empress to the Shuangyun Palace.

……

The county king's mansion, the door of the mansion was wide open, and the county lord brought Chen Ziwei to receive the order.

"Carried by heaven, Her Majesty the Empress summoned and said: Shao Xuan, the county lord, has many bad deeds, I am deeply saddened, and I am sending troops to the frontier to set an example. Chin this. ”

The county lord took the holy decree with both hands, "Thank you Aunt Empress, Xuan'er received the decree." ”

After receiving the decree, the county lord asked, "Does the empress's aunt have anything to explain?" ”

The eunuch shook his head, "Her Majesty didn't say anything. ”

"Okay, the county lord knows."

After the eunuch left, the county lord said to Chen Ziwei: "You can go back with General Chen today." ”

Chen Ziwei's eyes were red at the moment, "County Lord, are you leaving today?" ”

The county lord nodded, "If you leave one day earlier, Kyoto will be peaceful one day earlier." ”

……

Outside the city gate, there were snowflakes, the county lord sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain, she looked at the snow white all over the ground through the car window, and her heart was unhurried, but soon, the county lord calmed down.

Because, here, will be her starting point, a year later, she will return with a million male soldiers.

At this time, the county lord had less than ten retinues with him, but these ten people were all carefully selected by the county lord, with top martial arts and absolute loyalty.

Seeing that everyone was on their horses and ready, the county lord said, "Let's go, let's go." ”

In this way, the county lord embarked on the road to the frontier, and before leaving, no one came to see him off.

……

At this moment, there were two carriages parked at the gate of the county king's mansion, and when they saw General Chen coming, the guards guarding the door immediately opened the gate. Obviously, this was explained by the county lord in advance.

General Chen walked into the mansion and went to Xingchen Yuan under the leadership of Xiao Si on the side.

However, Chen Ziwei was not seen in the Xingchen Garden, so General Chen asked Xiao Si in the garden, "Where is the horse?" ”

Na Xiao Si saw that the woman in front of her had white hair in the green silk, but she could still see that she was a martial arts practitioner.

That Xiao Si suddenly remembered that General Chen was coming today, and this noble lady came to the county king's mansion at this time, and he guessed that she was the mother of the concubine, so he hurriedly replied: "The concubine is in the county lord's dormitory at the moment. ”

So, General Chen, under the leadership of Na Xiao Si, walked towards the county lord's dormitory.

This was the first time General Chen came to the County King's Mansion, and Na Xiao Si took her around the large and small pavilions of the County King's Mansion, and finally came to the County Lord's Bedroom.

General Chen was out of breath at the moment, and he seriously suspected that Xiao Si deliberately took her around in a circle, but as everyone knows, that Xiao Si took her to the nearest road.

General Chen has no time to take care of anything else, she is here to pick up her son today to go home.

So she stepped forward and pushed open the door to the dormitory.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the county lord holding a painting in a daze.

General Chen stepped forward and called, "Ziwei? ”

Chen Ziwei was not surprised when he heard his mother's call, because he knew that his mother was coming to pick him up today.

Chen Ziwei raised his head, looked at General Chen with moist eyes, pointed to the person on the painting and asked, "Mother, do you see that this person in the painting is me?" I can't remember the events of my childhood. ”

When General Chen looked at this painting, his face suddenly changed, "Where did this painting come from?" ”

This painting was accidentally discovered by Chen Ziwei under the bed, out of curiosity, she opened it to see, who knows, as soon as she opened it, a sense of familiarity immediately invaded her mind.

The painting has a forest with a pond in the middle. A little boy struggles in the water, and a little girl reaches out to save him with a sword in one hand and the other. The edge of the pond was covered with large and small rubble, and the little girl's arm was bleeding from the rubble rubbing, but the little girl's hand was still holding on to the little boy.

If you look closely at this painting, you can see that the little girl's painful eyes are full of infinite tenderness.

"This is something I found by accident. Mother, tell me, is that little boy me? ”

Chen Ziwei seemed to be pressing, and General Chen nodded and admitted, "That's right, it's indeed you." ”

General Chen began to recall, "When I arrived that day, I saw you lying motionless on the edge of the pond, soaking wet. Since that overboard, you've been left with a trail of illness. ”

When General Chen took Ziwei back, he saw a little girl in the forest. At that time, she thought that the little girl was pushing her into the water, so she was going to send someone to arrest her and ask her, but who knows, it happened that the queen was passing by this place, so the little girl escaped. Later, she searched several times, but never found it again.

Now that she saw this painting, she realized that she had misunderstood her all along.

Hearing his mother's answer, Chen Ziwei said word by word: "Mother, do you know? The little girl above is the county lord, and she was the one who saved me back then. ”

Maybe it's destined in the dark, it turns out that they have known each other for a long time.

Chen Ziwei deeply remembers that night, when the county lord returned home drunk, she saw the scar left on the county lord's arm when she was serving the county lord.

At this moment, he regretted it so much, the county lord made trouble with him that night, and insisted on letting him say that he liked her, he was very perfunctory at the time.

If he had to do it again, he would have to make his heart clear to the county lord.

At first, he didn't like her. Now, he has engraved her deeply in his heart.

……

A mile away from the capital, a fast horse galloped to catch up with a carriage in front, "County Lord." ”

Then the carriage stopped, and the man dismounted and said, "County Lord, the horse has returned to the General's Mansion, and the side horse has also been sent to Xianyunju secretly. ”

Before the county lord left, she named Yi'er as the side colt of the county king's mansion, Yi'er was her relative after all, and now she is pregnant with her child, and being a male pet is really wronged by him.

This morning, the county lord sent someone to escort Yi'er to Xianyunju.

Xianyunju is located in a mountain outside the capital, and it is said that it was discovered by Shao Xuan's mother, Shao Xin, who saw that the environment was quiet, so he built a house here. Whenever he was free, Shao Xin took his father Yuxin to live here for a few days.

The county lord commanded: "During my absence, Xianyunju will be handed over to you." ”

"Yes, the subordinates will live up to the trust of the county lord."

Now that everything in Kyoto has been arranged, the county lord has lowered the curtains, and the carriage continues to move slowly.

Next, she had to think carefully about how to pull those generals from the frontier into her command.

Tianchen Kingdom is half mountainous and half plain, with Yao Mountain as a barrier to the south and Wu Kingdom to the north.

The Wu Kingdom believed in the Wu Sect, and their national teacher once prophesied that the south was shrouded in purple qi, which was a treasure given to them by the heavens, and that their emperor was ambitious, so the Wu Kingdom repeatedly invaded the Tianchen Kingdom.

Since the last time the mother of the county lord, General Shao Xin, pacified the chaos at the border pass, the Wu State was defeated, and since then he has never dared to invade the border of our country again.

However, in recent years, the country has begun to harass our people from time to time, and there seems to be a trend of resurgence.

The county lord was holding a topographic map at the moment, looking at it carefully.

After a while, the county lord said to the outside of the curtain, "Infernal, you go and get the list of courtiers in the back box." ”

Infernal is the personal entourage of the county lord, and the county lord of the frontier originally did not plan to take the infernal, but the infernal asked again and again, and in the end, the county lord finally agreed.

Infernals was following outside the carriage at the moment, and when he heard the county lord calling him, he immediately responded, "Yes, county lord." ”

Infernal walked to the back of the carriage and took out a roster from the box in the back, and he ran to hand it to the county lord, "County lord, is this the book?" ”

The county lord's hand reached outside, and through the window he took the list of courtiers.

Then, there was an "um" sound from the carriage, and Wu Jian knew that he had taken it right.

He has been with the county lord for so long, and it is not in vain. Although he couldn't remember the things of the county lord very clearly, he had some impressions.

In the carriage, the county lord took the list of courtiers and looked through them carefully, and then she picked up the pen on the table and wrote down the names of several people.

The county lord silently recited the names of these people in his heart, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

At this time, the weather gets colder and colder in the north, and the next road may be more difficult.

Along the way, the entourage rode forward in the wind and snow, leaving countless footprints that were submerged in the heavy snow, and there were also the upright backs of the Tianchen people.
