Chapter 18: The Past

At the time of the founding of the country, the founding emperor Taiyuan Emperor and his founding heroes led a total of nine armies, which were led by the founding emperor and various princes, and together they fought down today's Daye Jiangshan, until the time of the dynasty, due to the increase and reorganization of the Jingshi Praetorian Guard, there were three more, so there were a total of twelve armies, known as the Daye Twelve Army.

The "Silver Armor Army" originated from one of the two armies led by the founding emperor, with a history of nearly 100 years, and is the only two armies that have undergone reorganization and still have few changes, and there are many famous generals who have gone down in history.

Later, when the emperor was crowned before the sixth prince, he temporarily handed over the military power of the Silver Armor Army to him, and asked him to conquer the south and the north to defend the country.

It is said that the sixth prince has been an active child since he was a child, so the current emperor hired the best martial artist to teach him martial arts, and saw that he was smart and let him learn a lot of military arts.

It is rumored that the six princes are angry, and they always toss the servants of the same age and the children of the nobles who practice with him miserably, so that the people in the palace do not dare to associate with him easily, and later the six princes' minds are put on hunting and military exercises.

When he was older, he didn't expect that the six princes, who could no longer be controlled, would not read sages and learn government affairs like other brothers, but took the initiative to ask the emperor for help and volunteered to go to the battlefield for training.

The emperor of the dynasty did not know which tendon was wrong, but agreed to put on armor from the emperor who had only reached the age of Zhixue, and then the six princes also lived up to expectations, repeatedly won surprising victories on the battlefield, and made many great contributions to the dynasty - and then, before the crown, he won the emperor's trust, and even got the silver armor army from the emperor himself, and officially took charge of this elite.

And this time Feng Xuhui met the silver armor army that returned to Beijing in triumph - after the six princes officially obtained the silver armor army talisman, they were ordered by the emperor to suppress the turmoil on the southern border, and it is said that it was handled very well, and the king of Nanxiang, who had always been arrogant, promised to suppress the "troublemakers" who had always liked to make trouble.

Feng Xu said to Feng Zhengdao: "Is the Zhan Mansion also busy? ”

Feng Zhengdao nodded: "Yes!" The military exploits of the six princes are great, but they don't care about those things outside the body, and every time they win a battle, they are recorded in the merit book and rewarded after pressing, this time it is a temporary solution to the trouble of the court's henchmen, His Majesty ordered a reward, and this time it will even be knighted. ”

Feng Xu's eyebrows moved, and he said, "Your Majesty wants to be knighted?" ”

Feng Zhengdao nodded and said: "This time, Your Majesty has discussed that in addition to adding titles to the six princes, he will also be allowed to buy another mansion in the capital and start his own business. ”

"This is a great grace."

Although Feng Xu said it indifferently, the emperor's actions were of extraordinary significance.

After all, since the founding of the country, the emperors of all dynasties have never given additional titles to the prince, usually just with the false title of a prince, calling him a certain king, and even his own palace is recorded in the name of the emperor.

And the princes of the prince can not let the descendants attack the shadow, the son of the prince will be reduced by one level every generation, and the rest of the sons will be reduced by two levels and the concubines will be reduced by three levels. But if the six princes can be additionally knighted, the title will be inherited from generation to generation and hereditary. Therefore, if the princes have the intention to protect their heirs, they will let them study and participate in scientific examinations, and find a way to make the descendants of the heirs and princes again......

Feng Zhengdao smiled bitterly and said, "Dad doesn't know, this is a pain for our Zhan Mansion." ”

Feng Xu hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "The behavior of the six princes has always been unpredictable, and this time the news has spread, I'm afraid that many princes are unwilling to settle down." ”

Feng Zhengdao showed a helpless expression: "But I was told by my father." ”

It was related to the government and the royal family, so the father and son did not say much in front of their daughters and grandchildren. After a pause, Feng Xu turned to ask: "Here in the capital, we only know the news that the Silver Armor Army has won military merits, how is it specific?" ”

Feng Xuhui saw Feng Xu asking about the Silver Armor Army, so he said from the beginning: "Grandfather, there were originally riots on the southern border, and my grandson went south this time to find a more secure silkworm farmer for the shop...... But there are always one or two floods in the south every year, although it is not as flooding as the spring floods in the north, but it is also scary enough! The silkworm farmers in the south are closer to the west, the more unaffected by the floods, and the more dangerous they are, the people below still want to try their best to protect the road to transport silk, but they can't imagine that the silver-armored army will really suppress the riots in the frontier as soon as they come, so the grandson's trip will be greatly smooth. ”

Listening to Feng Xuhui's words, Wang Chunqian couldn't help but be surprised: "Even the king of Nanxiang has relented? ”

"Yes! I was also surprised by this, and I also heard that the Sixth Prince personally led a strange army from the rear of the army of the Southern Xiang Kingdom to kill unexpectedly, causing them to be in chaos! They even captured the prince of their leading army once, and now the people in the south are singing about it! ”

Feng Xu said: "The six princes are also bold figures. ”

Looking at Feng Zhengdao's expression, he wanted to praise, but for some reason he calmed down again, and only said: "It's a pity that the six princes are still full of blood, and no matter how meritorious they are now, they can rarely be praised by the courtiers." ”

Feng Xuhui said: "Yes! When the son heard the praise in the south, he said that it was the Silver Armor Army, but it was the Sixth Prince who led the army, but he never mentioned it. ”

"Why?"

Feng Zhirong couldn't help but ask out loud, and her loud voice attracted everyone's attention. She knew she was too young to interject, but her bubbling curiosity couldn't be suppressed.

In Feng Xu's study, all eyes were cast on Feng Zhirong, and Zhou Youshao, who was standing next to Feng Zhirong, shook his fist slightly and put his hand on her shoulder.

What a stress!

Feng Zhirong didn't know what she should do for a moment, her expression was good, and her unfamiliar gaze seemed to drain all the oxygen around her, and she was about to be unable to breathe.

Maybe only a few seconds had passed, and she felt like the blink of an eye was suffocating enough.

However, she used to be an actress and was used to being watched by all kinds of eyes.

Just when Feng Zhirong wanted to say something, Wang Chunqian glanced at everyone left and right, and then said: "After all, this is a matter of heaven, and it is not easy to discuss." ”

Feng Xu nodded slightly, and Zhou Youshao saw that the topic was over, so he urged everyone to raise their feet and have dinner together, although Feng Zhirong felt that the atmosphere was wrong, but because she knew her seniority at home, she suppressed the doubts in her heart.

I thought that my doubts would take at least a while to have a chance to be answered, but I didn't expect that a few days later, Zhou Youshao led her out of the inner city of Beijing and went to the Buddhist temple in the outer city to worship the Buddha
