Chapter 9: Winning the Command (4)
Chapter 9: Winning the Command (4)
After the storm, the sky is clear.
In the Cangzhou military camp on the bank of the Boji Canal, Chai Rong and Fu Ying took more than a dozen guards and ran all the way to the handsome tent of Zheng Ziming, the envoy of the Zhenji Festival.
When the soldiers on duty saw this pedestrian, they all got out of the way and bowed down. The moment they lowered their heads, everyone's faces were filled with unconcealable sympathy.
The prince has no arrogance, and he is usually very friendly to his brothers. It's just that his fate is too much!
Four years ago, the whole family was killed by Liu Chengyou's minions; as soon as he became the crown prince, he was regarded as a thorn in the side of the privy envoy and the prince; he finally survived until he was bitter, married a virtuous and beautiful daughter-in-law, got a big fat son, and had his own lineage by his side. Bianliang is there, but the warning signal is prominent!
The Cangzhou army is strictly disciplined, and unfounded words cannot be spread randomly. You can't guess what you have seen with your own eyes. But before the half-pillar of incense, Han Chongyun rushed into the camp covered in blood, but he had faintly proved everything.
Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Guo Wei, the prince's father-in-law, I am afraid that there will be more than one bad luck!
"No, no, no!" Feeling the strangeness in everyone's eyes, Chai Rong's heart became more and more heavy as if it had been pressed against several mountains. As he strode towards the center of the camp, he whispered to himself to embolden.
Although he always said that his father-in-law Guo Wei was prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, he actually knew very well in his heart that Guo Wei's body and bones had been worse in the past two years. If the government and the opposition are safe and sound, they may be able to rely on the recuperation of the medicine stone and persist for a few more years. If there is a sudden chaos in the DPRK and China, or if the place suffers another catastrophe such as the bursting of the Yellow River, I am afraid that the oil will run out immediately!
Not only Chai Rong himself, but also his cronies and entourage around him were all anxious. Han Chongyun, as the direct deputy of Zuo Bandian, actually rode alone and braved the storm and suddenly appeared on the bank of the Boji Canal, and there were still blood stains all over his body! What happened in Bianliang City, could it be small? If Wang Jun, Wang Yin and the others jumped over the wall in a hurry, they suddenly ......
"Your Highness, everyone is looking at you! No matter what time it is, you have the second uncle, the third uncle and the concubines by your side!" At this moment, the only thing that can keep calm is Fu Ying. found that her husband's breathing was getting faster and faster, and the expressions of the people around him became more and more panicked, and they decisively held one of her husband's palms and reminded him softly.
"Look, what are you looking at?, yes, alone, alone is not alone. Ziming is here, and Yuen Long also happens to be there. Chai Rong's body shook, his steps slowed down, and the red in his eyes quickly began to fade.
Shuai is the soul of the three armies, no matter when, the handsome person can't mess up. Besides, I'm never alone. By his side, there are Zheng Ziming, Zhao Kuangyin, Gao Huailiang, Fu Ying, and Fu Zhaoxu. Since three years ago, when Ying began to govern the Yellow River, the two righteous brothers and a group of close friends have been secretly accumulating strength for themselves.
"You might as well listen to the third uncle's thoughts on everything. Although he is young, even my father almost fell in touch with him a while ago!" Feeling that her husband's hand was trembling, Fu Ying tightened his fingers and added in a low voice.
"Hmm!" Chai Rong and Fu Ying's hands also tightened, trying to make their legs more stable.
Don't complain about the sky, don't accept fate. If there is a road, try to move forward, and if there is no road, step on a path with your feet. For three consecutive years of fighting with the sky, fighting with the flood, fighting with the local princes and local tyrants and inferior gentry, Chai Rong once saw with his own eyes how his good brother Zheng Ziming could create miracles in a difficult situation. And although this disaster came suddenly, it may not be impossible to break the situation.
No matter how brave Wang Yin is, he can't be as brave as Gao Xingzhou. No matter how cunning Wang Jun is, he can't be cunning against his father-in-law Fu Yanqing. Even Gao Xingzhou and Fu Yanqing were convinced. Brothers work together, why should they be afraid of the two old foxes in Bianliang City who only dare to play conspiracy and tricks, and they don't have the courage to openly provoke anti-flag until now?
Thinking like this, his beating heart finally slowly returned to its normal rhythm. shuttled all the way, and soon came to Zheng Ziming's handsome tent. Before I could enter the door, I smelled a strong medicinal fragrance. Immediately after, I heard a tired voice say intermittently: "Roughly, that's the general situation." His Majesty was placed under house arrest in the palace, and Wang Jun, Wang Yin and Li Chongjin held the ministers hostage and plotted against him. Ziming, I don't, I don't ask for anything else. I, my father, is an old fool, and this time I'm afraid that I will become a knife in someone else's hand again. If, if it is possible in the future, please also, please also ask you in front of the prince, give, he begs for a favor. Let's just say, let's just say that I, Han Chongyun, am willing to exchange everything around me, for ......"
"General Han doesn't have to worry, he believes that Ling Zun is just confused for a while. Lone agreed, it's important for you to recover your body first!" Chai Rong took a sharp breath, lifted the curtain, and walked in quickly.
"Your Highness!" Zheng Ziming, Zhao Kuangyin, Pan Mei, Tao Dachun and others were surrounding Han Chongyun to treat his wounds. Hearing Chai Rong's voice, he quickly turned around and saluted.
"There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to be polite. "The more crowded the occasion, the more Chai Rong can calm down. Changing the appearance of the wind and fire on the road, he waved his hand, and strode towards Han Chongyun, who was reclining on a Hu bed, "How is Brother Han's body? Don't move, don't move, you just said, Gu heard it." Lone promises, as long as Ling Zun doesn't resist to the end, he will let you take him home to live for the rest of your life."
"Thank you Your Highness for your grace!" Han Chongyun's most painful thing in his heart before was that once the prince returned to Bianliang to quell the rebellion, his father would be beaten into a fellow thief, and it would be difficult to escape. At this moment, when he heard Chai Rong's promise, he immediately struggled to roll off the bed and kowtow to His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Get up, get up, you risk your death to send a letter to Lone, Lone, how dare Lone accept your gift?" Chai Rong was also a military general, and as soon as he bent down, he pulled Han Chongyun up directly and pushed him hard to the Hu bed. "You just continue to rest, and leave the rest to Gu and Ziming. ”
"Your Highness, don't worry, my brother-in-law is just tired and out of strength, and his body will not be very patient!" Not wanting the two of them to be tired of trivial matters, Zheng Ziming smiled on the side and whispered.
"It's okay. Chai Rong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, leaned down sideways, didn't see anything outside, sat next to Han Chongyun, looked around, and said in a low voice: "It's all my own brothers, I'm welcome." What happened in Bianliang City? I, my father-in-law, how is his old man's safety?"
Although he tried to pretend to be calm, when asked about Guo Wei's situation, there was still an obvious tremor in his voice. When Han Chongyun heard this, he quickly sat up straighter and reported in a low voice, "A while ago, Wang Jun and Wang Yin, two old thieves, joined forces to block the palace on the grounds that His Majesty was seriously ill and needed to recuperate. It is rumored that they want to force His Majesty to change Li Chongjin as the crown prince. But what the specific inside story is, the last general whispered lightly, and he didn't hear it clearly. It's just that late at night the day before yesterday, in the library of the palace, the purple and gold eight-treasure glass lamp suddenly shined brightly. Then, and then it was quickly extinguished again, and immediately, all the gates of Bianliang City were also blocked by the forbidden army, and those who dared to forcibly break out, no matter who their sons and nephews were, and their official positions, would be killed on the spot!"
After all, it was a high-level talent cultivated by Fat Fox Changsi, and Han Chongyun only used a few words to summarize the changes in Bianliang City. Immediately, he took a deep breath and stabilized his mood, starting from Guo Wei's sudden illness a few days ago and he couldn't come to the court, to the rapid blood change in the forbidden army and the army in front of the palace, to the palace prohibiting any officials from entering, and the situation that his father was co-opted by Wang Yin's faction, and the blood flowed in the middle of the night at the west gate of Bianjing City.
"Then what are you waiting for? Your Highness, let's immediately set up our troops and horses, kill Bianliang, slaughter Wang Jun's old thief, and rescue Your Majesty!" Gao Huailiang was anxious, and before Han Chongyun's words fell, he pressed his sword and rose.
"No, never!" Everyone present, except for Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin is the oldest and the most cautious. Before Chai Rong was provoked by Gao Huailiang, he stopped loudly, "Although Your Majesty has always trusted you, eldest brother, it is also a big crime to lead troops into Bianbian without an edict. That Wang Jun and Wang Yin are worried that they can't get your handle from your eldest brother. In this way, there is no need to look for any more reasons, and you have delivered him to your doorstep yourself!"
"This ......" Hearing the two henchmen give two diametrically opposed opinions, Chai Rong's mind, which had finally stabilized, suddenly began to scatter again. Holding down the bed with one hand, he was ready to get up.
"Third uncle, what do you think?" Fu Ying understood him, and decisively turned his gaze to Zheng Ziming and urged in a low voice.
Zheng Ziming is holding a brush in one hand and writing and drawing on paper with the other. Hearing Fu Ying's urging, he had to stop first and said in a low voice: "So far, we have very little information. No matter what you do, I'm afraid it's not appropriate......"
"There is no best policy, the middle strategy and the lower strategy are fine!" Chai Rong didn't want to wait at all, and urged loudly in a hoarse voice. "As long as I have a clear conscience, I am not afraid of Wang Jun's old thief. But the righteous father is upright, and he will definitely not be false and wronged with the old thief. The two sides are at a stalemate, afraid, afraid that Wang Jun's old thief will try to see him!"
"Since His Royal Highness no longer cares about personal reputation, it's simple!" Zheng Ziming waited for Chai Rong's words. Immediately grab the brush and wipe it vigorously on the paper, overturning all the previous considerations. "Entering Bian, His Royal Highness led his own soldiers and all the Cangzhou cavalry to rush to Bianliang by land. As you go, collect messages and send them backwards. The last general sorted out the rest of the soldiers and horses at hand and went upriver from the waterway. Two of us, seven days later, we'll see you in Bianliang City!"
"Huh?" Fu Ying was persuading Chai Rong all the way, and he must listen to Zheng Ziming's opinion. But he never expected that Zheng Ziming was even more impatient than Chai Rong. Without saying a word, he was about to raise troops and enter the army, and he was stunned!
But at this juncture, she wanted to change her tone to dissuade Chai Rong from being cautious, but she couldn't pull it off at all. I saw that my husband was like drinking twenty bowls of ginseng soup in a row, and his whole body was full of fighting spirit, so he nodded his head sharply and announced loudly: "Okay, if you say seven days, you will have seven days." Ladies and gentlemen, who wants to accompany me?!"
