Seeing Jiang Hong come to ask for a decree, Yuan Kangdi smiled.

It seems that Xing Guogong has regained control of the situation, otherwise with the experience of the crown prince and Li Xing, he would not be able to understand his intentions at all.

"How is Xing Guogong's physical condition?"

In order to make his guess official, Yuan Kangdi asked Jiang Hong.

Jiang Hong naturally did not hide anything from Emperor Lao Tzu.

1510 said: "Father, Xing Guogong should have recovered from a serious illness, his face was pale, and when he spoke, he kept coughing. ”

"Is there anything unusual in the Li family?"

Jiang Hong subconsciously wanted to say no, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he thought of something.

Only then did he ask tentatively: "Except for the gatekeeper and the housekeeper, there are only a few nurses and maids, I haven't seen anyone else, it doesn't look like the Guogong Mansion at all, but like an ordinary big family, I don't know if this is abnormal?" ”

"Looks like he's made his choice."

Yuan Kangdi suddenly said this.

Jiang Hong was a little puzzled, and subconsciously asked, "Father, what do you mean?" ”

Emperor Yuan Kang shook his head and said: "It's nothing, my father is just talking to himself, remember that this time the bandits must win, this is related to the majesty of my royal family and the future fate of Great Xia." ”

"Father, don't worry! Don't dare to say anything else, in the area of war, Erchen has never been afraid of anyone, 20,000 Xishan guards, killing the rogues, and capturing them. ”

When it comes to marching formations, Jiang Hong said that he couldn't finish talking about it for three days and three nights.

However, Emperor Yuan Kang reminded at this time: "The suppression of bandits is not to kill, but to deter, so that the people can trust the court again, so that the rebellious land can resume production and long-term stability." ”

"Father, you are a woman's kindness, if you don't use the fastest speed to quell the bandits, just consider deterrence, the consequences will only be more serious."

"If the retainers only take one day to capture Hedong City, kill all the rebellious leaders of the White Lotus Sect, and then apply benevolent governance, spare the people, and solve the smallpox plague for them, then they will be truly grateful to the imperial court."

When Jiang Hong said this, Emperor Yuan Kang seemed to know his son for the first time.

Unexpectedly, in just two years, the prince has grown to such a point, and he is very relieved.

"What the prince said is reasonable, I don't care about the process of this expedition, as long as the result is peaceful in Hedong, I will send someone to receive it as soon as possible."

Jiang Hong was very clear about what the emperor meant.

It's just that taking power from the wealthy family in this way is still very slow for Jiang Hong.

But Jiang Hong also knows that now with the control ability of the royal family, it is already very good to do this step.

It seems that the northwest side must be controlled as soon as possible.

When the time comes, you can train another batch of troops who will be loyal to the imperial court.

If the local and central governments echo each other, they can completely deter those big families.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Father, if there is a big victory this time, Erchen still wants to return to Lingwu with Li Xing, looking for an opportunity to completely control the northwest, and when that time comes, my father's plan can be implemented." ”

"My son has really grown."

Emperor Yuan Kang became more and more satisfied with the crown prince, and reached out and touched Jiang Hong's head.

Jiang Hong remembered that since he was twelve years old, his father had never spoiled him again, and now he felt his father's love again, and his heart was warm.

He smiled innocently and said, "It's all taught by the people sent by my father, especially Commander Ouyang." ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Kangdi was a little embarrassed.

"Prince, if you can understand my distress, this time to suppress the bandits, I will send you two shadow guards to protect you, remember, there is no emergency, you can't leave the army and act alone."

"It's good to have Li Xing by Erchen's side, and the shadow guard will forget it."

Jiang Hong hurriedly refused.

With the shadow guard, those guys will definitely follow their father's orders strictly.

can't be on the battlefield anymore and kill all sides, what's the point of him leading his troops to the battle?

"No, the shadow guard is by your side to protect you, this is not negotiable."

Yuan Kangdi also disagreed.

He is such a son, and he wants to regain the rights of the place to the royal family for so many years, isn't it for this son.

If something happens to my son, what's the use of him doing so much?

Do you want to make wedding dresses for other clans?

"Then they are not allowed to restrict the freedom of their sons, but they must obey them with full authority."

Jiang Hong made a small request at the right time.

Although Yuan Kangdi knew the true intention of Jiang Hong's request.

But thinking of Ouyang Xiong's saying that the prince's kung fu has achieved some small success, the general generals are not the prince's opponents.

So he agreed to Jiang Hong.

However, he still reminded: "I can promise you, but I can't do anything. ”

"Erchen understands."

Jiang Hong was relieved when he saw that the emperor agreed.

Qin Jin watched from the side, just quietly listening to the conversation between father and son.

I was actually very relieved in my heart, but I didn't expect that the doll who always liked to ride his neck when he was a child could now stand alone and share his Majesty's worries.

The revival of Great Xia is hopeful, and the first emperor can turn a blind eye.

"Big companion, go to the draft, and the two armies of Xishanwei will accompany the prince to suppress the bandits."

After Emperor Yuan Kangdi finished speaking, Qin Jin hurriedly went to get it.

Then Yuan Kangdi took out a tiger talisman from the pocket lined inside the yellow robe and handed it to Jiang Hong.

"Prince, this is Xishanwei's troop transfer tiger talisman, remember to keep it well."

Jiang Hong changed his previous babbling appearance, knelt down and bowed very seriously, and then raised his hands to take the tiger talisman.

"Father, rest assured, even if there is an accident and the life of the son is lost, this tiger charm will be returned to the father intact."

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Kangdi's face instantly fell.

Glaring at Jiang Hong: "At this time, don't say such unlucky words, as the prince of Great Xia, you must be blessed by the heavens and ancestors, nothing will happen, even if there is an accident, I would rather not have a tiger talisman, but also let my son be safe." ”

I feel a strong father's love.

Jiang Hong is now sure that he didn't pick it up.

Leaving the palace again, Jiang Hong had two more shadow guards and a eunuch who passed the decree by his side.

When I arrived at Xing Guogong's mansion, I saw Li Xing and Xing Guogong waiting at the door for a long time.

Xing Guogong's state at this time was much better than before.

In Xing Guogong's words, Li Xing learned the method of acupuncture and moxibustion from classical books, and unraveled all the poisons in his body, so he could barely walk.

Li Xing complained in his heart, Dad, who looks honest, comes when he opens his mouth.
