Chapter 281: Border Conflict



Emperor Xuan is finally safe and sound, but after this rebellion, it is also a big injury, especially the death of the queen, the blow to him is particularly big, and it doesn't take a few days to become old Longzhong, it seems to be older than the queen mother, and the palms of his hands will tremble from time to time, and even the pen is trembling and can't write.

In this case, if he is asked to continue to be the emperor, it is obviously incompetent, but who dares to say to the emperor that you are old and can't do this job, so you should quickly abdicate and make way for Xian, isn't this purely idle and looking for death! Therefore, in the speculation that the ministers were worried about, Emperor Jinxuan finally made an order, ordering the sixth prince Nangong Yan to assist in handling the affairs of the court, and the Marquis of Zhenbei to assist, if there is nothing big, there is no need to alarm the emperor.

Obviously, this is a signal from the emperor, the next emperor will be the sixth prince out of ten. The ministers secretly discussed, these six princes are not simple, they were demoted to concubines at the beginning, and now they actually turned over, and they led the army to save the king and won the favor of the emperor, the position of the prince has been fixed, and he regrets in private why he looked away at the beginning, and feels that these six princes have no future, and now they feel feverish if they want to go up.

Zhenbei Hou was a little depressed, thinking that he could pat his ass and leave after the matter was over, but he was actually left as an auxiliary minister? Don't look at how big the six princes are, they don't need a nurse for a long time, oh no, they don't need a daddy, adding someone by their side to point fingers will only make people feel bored.

Zuo Zhan's little rabbit cub ran fast, and a woman who didn't pay attention to him disappeared, and he didn't mean to help at all.

Therefore, the Marquis of Zhenbei, who has made great contributions and is particularly trusted by the old and new emperors, has become a strange man who stands and sleeps every day, and the ministers of civil and military affairs say that they have a toothache, as for the six princes. In addition to feeling a little funny, I am generally very satisfied, and it is no wonder that the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is still beautiful after so many years. People are just sensible and knowledgeable, can you not like being an emperor?

Nangong Fan conspired to rebel, although he later discovered a secret passage in the Queen Mother's small Buddha hall. The corpses inside confirmed that Nangong Fan was dead, but this great crime of rebellion was not something that could be ended by one person dying. The Hou Mansion of Zhenbei did not follow Nangong Fan to rebel, but swore to save King Qin, naturally he was not a traitor, the Cui family who helped Nangong Fan was dead, Nangong Min's whereabouts were unknown, and the sea fishing documents had already been issued, and it was not difficult to arrest her. Although the Marquis of Zhenbei cherishes this daughter a little, since he has made such a big mistake, even he is irreparable, and the six princes are already extremely magnanimous if they do not anger the others.

In addition, in the process of Nangong Fan's rebellion, whether it was controlling the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, or plotting to kill the two imperial heirs of the prince and the eldest prince, and finally forcing the palace, the Cui family did not fall, and the Anguo Mansion also took advantage of Xiao Huang's little kinship with the Zhenbei Hou after the fall of the prince to get on the line with Nangong Fan. There is also Nangong Fan's Yue family, the Lu family, which was naturally settled by the Autumn Queen, and several families were almost wiped out without any resistance, and the prince Liangdi and Song Lianxin were already famous on the royal jade. is considered a royal person, and he was not killed together on the open side of the net, but the crime of escaping without permission is not small, and once he is caught, he will probably be imprisoned for a lifetime.

The eldest prince's concubine Yang Jinzhi, murdered Cui Guifei first, and fled for his life to abandon the emperor, which can be described as a great rebellion, disloyalty and unfilial piety, although it later fell into the hands of Zuo Zhan and explained the situation in the palace, which can be regarded as a meritorious service, the six princes considered it a little bit, and it was extra generous to leave a whole corpse, and they no longer pursued the Yang family who were far away in Qinghe Town.

After a series of big moves, there are many forces that have been purged in the capital, and many forces have been reshuffled, and everyone in the capital is reflecting on whether they have anything to do with the rebellion in a daze, and if they are not touched, they are naturally shouting luck, glad that they are calm and wise enough, and they find that they are unconsciously involved in the relationship is scared out of a cold sweat, and secretly move around to find out the news in an attempt to get by.

Zhenbei Hou didn't see it as a matter, and mentioned the six princes, at present, there are frequent rebellions everywhere, and many ill-intentioned people take the opportunity to take advantage of the shareholders to rise up, rather than spending those efforts to deal with these officials who are like grass on the wall, it is better to give them a chance to make meritorious contributions, let them go to fight against the rebels, on the one hand, show their loyalty, and are willing to put that face to train by the way, these people are rich one by one.

The six princes suddenly opened their mouths, worthy of being a perennial leader of the troops, this brain immediately thought of this, that is, to deal with those people have to do it themselves, directly ask them to fight, two dogs eat dogs, he is worry-free, so he asked Emperor Xuan, with a wave of the pen, he sent these troublesome people to quell the chaos.

As for whether these people will fight against the water, he is not worried, those rebellions among the people are all petty fights, and he now has the assistance of Zhenbei Hou and Lin Zhiguo, two generals in the army, as long as they are not stupid, they will understand what to do.

The Su family can be regarded as bitter and sweet, for so many years hiding in Nangong Xiao's backyard to seek perfection, waiting for this day, but unfortunately the Su family is not high, although she used to be a daughter back then, but unfortunately the family has already fallen when the six princes were convicted, and now there are not a few people to come, she naturally can't become the concubine of the six princes, so she became the concubine of Su.

The original intention of the six princes was to bring Luo Shi together, and the quota of the two side concubines was exactly one person, and when he was leaving, he sincerely asked Luo Shi, but unfortunately he was rejected by the latter, and would rather stay in the bitter cold land of Liaodong for the rest of his life and never return to the capital.

Speaking of which, there is also a great relationship between the Luo clan and the six princes, the biological mother of the six princes gave birth to a pair of twins, this matter is a secret, and it was suppressed by Emperor Jinxuan, the twins are ominous symbols in the royal family, and their own flesh and blood are reluctant to hurt, so they raised one of them out of the palace and raised them outside, this matter was handled by the Marquis of Zhenbei at the beginning, so Nangong Xiao is clear. This child grew up and got acquainted with Luo, and the two had a very strong relationship, but it was a pity that when the eldest prince and the crown prince designed the six princes, they mistakenly killed him exactly the same as the six princes in the process of chasing and killing him again, and the six princes were immediately demoted to concubines soon after.

At that time, the sixth prince knew that he had a fellow brother, and he thought that he had died in Huangquan. Therefore, for the Luo family, the mentality of the six princes is very complicated, admiring her beauty and intelligence. And because of that person's relationship, she was full of guilt, and Roche may have seen it and alienated from him. Nangong Xiao took her into the Zhenbei Hou Mansion in order to take care of her, and she lived there for so many years.

Roche was unwilling. Although the sixth prince felt very regretful, he was unwilling to go against her will, after all, he still felt guilty in his heart, so he went with her as if the two of them had no fate.

When the form of the capital is unpredictable, the war in the north is also more and more in full swing, and Warat is fighting against the water this time, and the snow disaster losses received in winter are too great. They started the war with the strength of the clan, if they were not successful, I don't know how many people on the grassland would starve to death, the war was extremely tragic from the beginning, and Nangong Xiao was so busy that he couldn't spare time to go home and have a look.

A cauldron was set up in front of the tent, and the tongue of fire licked the bottom of the pot that had turned black, and the inside of the pot was steaming, the boiling water was tumbling, and the white gas coming out made people feel warm. If you sniff in carefully, you can smell the enticing aroma of meat coming from inside.

A group of soldiers in armor waited with bowls in their hands. If you look closely, there will be such a big pot on the fire every few tents, and there are people lining up with bowls next to it, which looks interesting.

Standing next to the cauldron was a firehead with a white apron. Holding a long-handled spoon in his hand, he stirred in the pot, and with each stirring, the tempting taste became more and more intense, and the soldiers who were waiting for the meal to be served on the side were full of laughter.

Nangong Xiao opened the tent door wearing a bright armor and walked out, seeing this lively scene, he couldn't help but smile knowingly, and a general who followed behind couldn't help laughing: "Ge Laozi, these days I've been busy fighting, those straight thieves in Wara have launched a surprise attack every three or five times, and Lao Tzu hasn't eaten seriously for a long time!" He laughed and ran to grab a bowl and went to line up with the soldiers.

Because the Zhenbei Army has a strong reserve of grain and grass, it is not short of the soldiers' food and drink, even the meat is enough, next to the deep mountains and old forests, those beasts will come out of the capital to wander, there is no shortage of meat, that is, the Wara people always run over from time to time, and the soldiers who are harmed have no time to eat and grab weapons to go to the battlefield, so after a few times, Nangong Xiao simply asked the Huotou Army to make a large number of easy-to-store dough cakes, dried meat and other things directly distributed to the soldiers, and quickly took them out and nibbled a few bites when they had time, Who knows when the Warats will come again.

So it's really been a long time since I've eaten seriously, and looking at the steaming cauldron and smelling the broth is really mouthwatering.

Seeing that it was almost cooked, the Huotou Army grabbed the green onions and coriander that had been prepared long ago and sprinkled it in, stirred well, and the soldiers over there were already impatient, and they came over in line one by one, and the Huotou Army spoon was busy pouring hot soup.

This way of eating is still Dong Liang inadvertently mentioned a very famous eating mutton steamed bun in later generations, Nangong Xiao thought of it, although there is no mutton, but there are still other meat or bones or something, simply put a big pot to cook the broth, and the soldiers themselves broke the hard dough into small pieces and put it in the bowl, and then added the broth to eat it hot, saving trouble and fast.

The fragrance drifted along the wind above the camp tent, and soon spread to the side of Warat, because of the lack of food, the Warat people can eat a lot of things every day, basically half-full, fighting is a hard work, no matter how capable people can not always be hungry, this fragrance is like a hook straight into the noses of those hungry soldiers, causing a large group of people to keep swallowing saliva, guessing what the Central Plains people are eating again, and all eyes are glowing green.

Finally, someone couldn't help it and stood up: "No, Lao Tzu is starving here, but the Central Plains pigs are delicious and delicious, brothers, let's rush again and grab all their food!" ”

I have to say that the taste of this hungry stomach is really uncomfortable, a group of big men, at the beginning, they still wanted to defeat the Central Plains pig to rob and save the clansmen through the crisis, but now it is completely because of hunger that it has become a hungry wolf who only wants to eat, and this goal has slipped more than one notch.
