Chapter 140 If you are harmful to Chang'an, I will not keep you
After General Night finished speaking, several generals sitting beside him nodded slightly.
General Li said: "I agree with the general's meaning, if you don't have to fight a battle, we don't need to cause unnecessary casualties for the sake of a moment of righteousness, and besides, my Chang'an has always been a state of etiquette, and attacking 10,000 people in southern Xinjiang with 80,000 people seems to be a bit of a victory." ”
Everyone pondered and nodded, but the prince's eyes grew redder and redder, and the anger on his face grew stronger.
"Yehan!" He roared angrily: "You are delaying the fighter!" I see that you, like Qingyi, are harboring evil intentions! When I return to Chang'an, I will definitely show my father that the emperor will condemn you with a serious crime! ”
Ye Han looked at the prince helplessly, this arrogant and unreasonable person without the slightest military acumen made him have no way, it is estimated that before me, the prince has argued with General Ye many times.
Ye Han shook his head and said solemnly: "What happens after arriving in Chang'an, let's talk about it after arriving in Chang'an!" ”
"You! ......" I didn't expect Ye Han to pay so little attention to his opinion, the prince was almost angry, he pointed to the night general's nose and said, "You wait for me!" With that, he shook his hand and went out.
"Prince! The prince ...... "The old minister ran out after him.
Ye Han looked at the angry prince, and did not panic in the slightest, he waved his hand and said to everyone: "You all go down, I have something to ask Princess Qingyi." ”
The two rows of people in the military tent retreated together, and only me and General Yehan were left in the big tent, his brows were still tightly furrowed, and the look on his face was inviolable heroism and bravery, so that anyone in front of him could not help but want to be afraid of submission.
"Princess Qingyi, you said that the noble concubine Niangniang wants to join forces with Southern Xinjiang to make the prince die in this battle, is this really true?"
"General, Qingyi's words are true!"
Ye Han nodded, "His Royal Highness King Yu, are you still recuperating in Huizhou?" ”
"Yes!"
Ye Han said quietly: "If the facts are according to what you said, I am afraid that His Royal Highness King Yu is not safe to stay in Huizhou, I will send someone to protect King Yu, and after his injuries are healed, he will be brought back to the barracks." As for the matter of the concubine, there is no evidence, I will not believe you so easily, and I hope Princess Qingyi can understand. ”
"I understand, I understand!" I hurriedly said, "The purpose of Qingyi's coming to Southern Xinjiang is to prevent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from reading the edict and save the prince's life, Southern Xinjiang and my Tang Dynasty have always had no grievances, Qingyi doesn't want to see the people of the two countries suffer for me, I can stop this war, I can make them stop and stop fighting." I just want the general to give me such an opportunity, if the crown prince is killed, the grudge between Chang'an and southern Xinjiang will become deeper and deeper, I'm afraid, once the war burns, it will be difficult to stop......"
There was a strange look in Yehan's eyes, "You really think so?" ”
"Yes!!"
"Then do you know why Nanjiang wanted to save you? You are not in any danger, isn't it just a cover for Southern Xinjiang to save you? ”
"Qingyi doesn't know......" I shook my head, I really don't know the reason for this incident, "I really don't know why they want to save me, I'm afraid I'm really in some danger without knowing it, but we don't need to do such a big fight for such a nonsensical thing!" The people are innocent......"
"Haha" General Night looked at me and laughed, "You're quite smart, this bit of courage is very similar to your mother......"
This is the first time I have seen General Ye's smile since I entered the barracks, and the only thing he said with a smile was about my mother, when he mentioned my mother, his eyes were full of gentle soft wind, not at all like the roughness just now.
"It's good that you can have a smart premonition that you are in an unaware danger now, and I know your innocence, but if the fundamental purpose of getting rid of you is beneficial to Chang'an, then I won't be on your side, do you understand?" The Night General instantly hardened, and his eyes turned into two sharp blades again, trying to pierce me.
Looking at him, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my bones, I knew that I was an outlier after all, from the Northern Desert and had something to do with Southern Xinjiang, I am afraid that the most intolerant of me is Chang'an......
However, Chang'an is my uncle's house! Originally, a person who had a relationship with all three countries should be honored, but now, why did I fall into such a situation of suspicion and suspicion?
However, I fully understand Lord Ye's position, I nodded, although I was sad, but I had no complaints, if I was really harmful to Chang'an, I am afraid that not only Ye Han, but Ye Linghan would not let me go. Killing a prince is a small matter, and it is a real big thing to endanger his people.
"Now, our most important thing is to save King Yu back, King Yu can be my witness, this conspiracy will naturally be exposed!"
General Ye nodded and said, "I'll send someone to pick up King Yu, Princess Qingyi, you take a break in the tent first, tomorrow, I want Princess Qingyi and the prince of Southern Xinjiang to meet and explain all the unnecessary misunderstandings, what do you think, princess?" ”
"Good! I do! I replied.
I was led by some soldiers, and in a short time I came to the tent that had been prepared for me, and the march was rudimentary, and there was nothing in the tent except a bed, a thin quilt, and a small log table. I know that this is already good, and the marching is mixed in the outer tent, and it is already a luxury for me to live in a military tent alone.
As soon as he entered the tent, someone shouted softly outside the door: "Is Princess Qingyi here?" ”
Who will a female voice be? I opened the curtain and looked at it, and I couldn't help but be surprised, wasn't this the old personal maid beside the prince?
"The slave maid meets Princess Qingyi." She carried a food box in her hand and leaned over to salute.
"No need to be polite, why are you also in the army?" I welcomed her into the tent, marched into battle, and there was never a woman in the barracks, and I could not help but wonder if she did not look like she had just come to pay her respects.
"The slave and maid came with His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness was not used to eating the coarse grain in this army, the slave and maid followed, and made some food for the prince. She replied as she placed the food box on the table.
Oh, this prince is really pampered, he will enjoy it!
"Here are some snacks I made, and I sent them to Princess Qingyi to taste, the princess is a daughter, I'm afraid I will be a little unaccustomed to eating the big pot of rice in the barracks." She bowed her head and said respectfully.
"Thank you for bothering, Qingyi is not so delicate, what the night general can eat, Qingyi can eat." I don't think I had suffered any hardships when I was wandering, and the rough food in the barracks was not a big obstacle.
"Yes......" she replied in a slurch, the look on her face tangled.
"But what else?" I asked tentatively.
The maid looked up at me and knelt down, "Princess Qingyi, the slave knows that there are some things that the slave and the maid are not qualified to ask, but the slave and the maid are really not at ease with the prince, and the slave and the maid beg the princess to tell the slave and maid, what is the so-called matter of the concubine?" The slave maid only overheard some after the prince returned to the tent after scolding a few angrily, but the slave maid wanted to know, and begged Princess Qingyi to tell the slave maid what was going on. ”
After she finished speaking, her head fell hard.
I can't help but feel sorry in my heart, a personal maid of the prince's mother, was ordered by her own young lady to serve the prince, and regarded him as closer than her own children, however, the prince is so ignorant and stupid and reckless, it is estimated that he can still keep his position as the prince, and he must have half of the credit of the woman in front of him! And the other half of the credit goes to his mother who is favored by the saint!
I sighed and shook my head, it's really a pity for the old minister's heart, her friendship with the prince, when will the prince understand, when will he grow up and fight a little bit......
I leaned down and pulled her up, I'm afraid that there is only such an understanding person left by the prince's side, and if I don't say these words to her, I'm afraid no one will say it.
I told her what had happened, and she just listened, didn't say a word, didn't ask a word. has been in the palace for decades, not to mention her strategy and scheming above the prince, but also on par with several concubines in the palace. When I had finished, she thanked me softly, got up and took off, without expressing any opinion or resentment.
I leaned outside the tent door, looking at her no longer plump body and a somewhat rickety back, a woman, who had devoted all her best years to a person who was not her own child, watching for him, praying for him, for some reason, I could see the shadow of my mother in her, in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, she was more like a mother than any concubine.
This ridiculous prince is really lucky, there is such a dutiful maid who protects her with all her might, and there is a concubine who has nothing to do with him. Perhaps, he should not have died!
I turned around, and went back to the tent to get ready to sleep, this southern Xinjiang is damp, there are many insects, the wind blows on the body is not as refreshing as the north, I looked up at the stars in the sky that are gradually brightening, I don't know how the king of Yu is now? General Night's soldiers, they should be able to reach Huizhou tomorrow, right?
And Ye Linghan, who is far away on the other side of the sky, what is the situation at this moment?
Perhaps because I was so tired, I slept very deeply that night, and the next day, while I was still in my dreams, I heard chaotic shouts outside.
"Princess Qingyi! Princess Qingyi! Big things are wrong! ”
I quickly got up from the bed, put on my coat and walked out, "What's the matter?" ”
The maid ran towards me in a panic, her eyes were red and swollen, and her hair was scattered, "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took Princess Qingyi's edict early in the morning and went to the southern Xinjiang military camp!" ”
What the!
