Xue Wanche was not only summoned into the palace, but also other generals who were going to go on the expedition, all of whom were summoned into the palace by Li Er to encourage him, and Xue Wanche went into the palace early in the morning, but when he came back, he was a little wilted, because he knew that the emperor wanted him to guard the grain and grass, and he Xue Wanche had never guarded the grain and grass for so many years, because he was a fierce general who charged into battle, and it was not overkill to guard the grain and grass? Although the emperor summoned a group of generals who went out with the army to encourage, he did not tell everyone all the military strategies that had been set, so Xue Wanche didn't know that he had become a bait with Li Yong, if he knew, he would definitely jump up with joy, because for him it meant a happy fight, Princess Danyang was in a particularly beautiful mood today, eating melons and fruits, while waiting for Xue Wanche to come back.

"Princess, princess, the colt is back!"

The maid came to report, but the expression on her face was a little strange, Princess Danyang slowly got up to greet her, Xue Wanche was about to go on the expedition, and she also wanted to give him some encouragement, so she stood up specially, I have to say that since she was pregnant, she has more maternal brilliance, so people have become gentler, seeing Princess Danyang standing up to greet her, Xue Wanche, who was striding over, hurriedly said.

"What are you doing standing up? You're pregnant! ”

Seeing Princess Danyang stand up to welcome him home, he was really a little unaccustomed, but Princess Danyang didn't care about this, she saw Xue Wanche's expression a little wilted at a glance, and he didn't have the excitement when he left in the morning.

"What's wrong? Didn't you go to the palace? What happened? ”

Princess Danyang frowned and asked, Xue Wanche wilted.

"The saint ordered me to guard the grain and grass!"

Princess Danyang raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said coquettishly.

"What? Let you protect the food? Are you a world-famous general? Isn't that overkill to let you protect food? ”

Xue Wanche also thinks so, he likes to charge into battle, but the emperor doesn't give him the opportunity to charge into battle, but asks him to guard the grain and grass, but Princess Danyang doesn't think that Xue Wanche likes to charge into battle or not, she just thinks that what credit can be given to guarding the grain and grass? There is no merit in guarding the grain and grass at all, only hard work, but once the grain and grass are lost, it is a great responsibility, Princess Danyang frowned.

"What about the Rongfu Jungong? You are a descendant of the Duke of Rongfu, and you are so capable of fighting, shouldn't he transfer you to his command? ”

Xue Wanche explained.

"I'm under the command of the Duke of Rongfu."

Princess Danyang wondered.

"Guarding grain and grass under the command of the prince of Rongfu?"

Xue Wanche patiently explained.

"This time, the Duke of Rongfu took the Shenji Battalion to the expedition, not to fight, but to protect the grain and grass, and the sage asked me to take 10,000 foot soldiers to guard the grain and grass with the county prince."

Princess Danyang frowned when she heard this, just now she thought that it was not a good thing for Xue Wanche to be sent to guard the grain and grass, but now that she heard that Li Yong led the Shenji Battalion to guard the grain and grass, her opinion suddenly changed, because Li Yong is Changle's concubine, and he is the most important courtier of the saint and the queen's mother, even he guards the grain and grass, so Xue Wanche naturally said that it is not a good thing to protect the grain and grass, even if there is no merit but hard work, it is nothing, as long as Xue Wanche follows Li Yong, because Li Yong has never treated his own people badly, A smile reappeared on Princess Danyang's face, and she smiled and said with relief.

"I know you want to charge into battle, and you feel aggrieved to protect the grain and grass, but isn't the Rongfu County Duke powerful? Isn't the Shenji Battalion powerful? The Duke of Rongfu County took the Shenji Battalion to guard the grain and grass, what else do you have to complain about? And if it weren't for the Rongfu County Prince, you wouldn't even have the opportunity to protect the grain and grass! The Duke of Rongfu County is your Bole, if there is no him, you are still idle, now that the Duke of Rongfu County guards the grain and grass, shouldn't you help him? ”

Xue Wanche nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, of course it should be, I will always remember the kindness of the county lord to me, and I am not only sorry for myself, but also for the county lord."

Princess Danyang said angrily.

"Regret what? The prince of Rongfu County must be willing to protect the grain and grass, otherwise the saint can still force him? Let me tell you, don't be wilting after the expedition, and behave well in front of the Rongfu County Prince. ”

Although he was a little unhappy with guarding the grain and grass, since the matter was a foregone conclusion, he would not ignore it, and took a step back and said, even if he went out to protect the grain and grass, it was better than staying in Chang'an to live a life that could be seen but not eaten! Moreover, maybe the Tubo people really came to rob the grain, it must be a big war, a hearty war, Xue Wanche nodded.

"Don't worry, I won't ignore it, as long as I go on an expedition, whether it's guarding grain and grass or charging into battle, I may encounter the Tubo people at any time, so I can't ignore it."

Princess Danyang said with a smile.

"It's good if you can understand, quickly change into court clothes, and then go to Lijiazhuang to see what else the county prince has to say."

Xue Wanche strode to change his clothes, Princess Danyang tilted her head slightly and was a little puzzled, how could Li Yong go to guard the grain and grass? How much credit can you take to guard the grain and grass? How could Li Yong give up such a good opportunity to get credit? He really couldn't figure it all out. In the palace, Li Lizhi walked into the Lizheng Hall with a slightly bulging belly, and the eldest grandson Empress gently held her beside her, and said with satisfaction.

"The complexion is very good, and the person is a little rounder."

Li Lizhi smiled sweetly.

"Don't worry, mother, I'm fine."

Empress Eldest Sun smiled: "You two have always been good at mixing oil in honey, what can the queen mother worry about?" ”

While speaking, Empress Changsun pulled Changle to sit on the soft collapse and said with a smile.

"You don't have to worry if Li Yong is going to go on the expedition, he is just guarding the grain and grass, there will be no danger, you can just wait for the birth."

Li Lizhi nodded slightly.

"I heard that General Xue will send troops with Lang Jun? And also brought 10,000 foot soldiers? ”

Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"The queen mother also talked to your father last night, Xue Wanche is also a fierce general, can't he still protect the grain and grass? Why bother with Li Yong's expedition? But your father said that after all, the last time after all, the battle was lost, and the people of Longyou were panicked, Li Yong and the Shenji Battalion made great contributions in the Eastern Expedition, and going to Longyou can stabilize people's hearts. ”

Li Lizhi listened and said suddenly.

"Huh? I see! ”

Li Er, who was striding in the meteor, couldn't help but feel a little weak when he heard this, the queen did ask him last night, he just hesitated for a moment and found a reason to stabilize people's hearts to prevaricate the queen, and did not tell the queen about Li Yong as a bait. It's not that Li Erxin kept it secret from the queen because of the queen, but after thinking about it seriously, he felt that if he told the queen the truth, the queen would definitely be very worried, and even complain about him, and in the past few months of Li Yong's expedition, he will complain more and more about him over time, which is related to his happy life for a few months! If the queen accidentally revealed this matter to Li Zhi or Yuzhang, and then revealed it to Changle, then it would be a big trouble, Changle was pregnant, how could she withstand the shock and worry? Li Er coughed dryly and nodded.

"That's right, a certain is borrowing Li Yong's name, Li Yong's kid is not small now, and after experiencing the Eastern Crusade, Li Yong and the Shenji Battalion are famous all over the world, let Li Yong take the Shenji Battalion to Longxi, which can calm people's hearts, and moreover, the grain and grass are indeed very important, and there is no room for loss, with Li Yong and the Shenji Battalion to take care of it, it will be foolproof, it just so happens that Danyang is also pregnant, so I thought about simply letting Xue Wanche also lead 10,000 foot soldiers to take care of the grain and grass with Li Yong. I never want to see the Tubo people come to Chang'an to show off their might. ”

Li Li said with a smile.

"This time the imperial court attaches so much importance to it, it will definitely defeat the Tubo people!"

At the beginning, Li Lizhi was still a little suspicious, wondering why her father sent Xue Wanche to lead 10,000 foot soldiers to guard the grain and grass with Li Yong, but now seeing that her father attaches so much importance to it, her doubts have been solved, and she feels very happy in her heart, because Xue Wanche is a fierce general who has been in battle for a long time, and he led 10,000 foot soldiers under Li Yong's command. But Empress Changsun stared at the emperor without blinking, the emperor explained so much just now, but it made him feel a little abnormal, the emperor is not a person who talks a lot, isn't it just to let Li Yong guard the grain and grass to calm people's hearts? As for the long-winded explanations, is there so much explanation? After all, they have been sharing the same bed for so many years, if you want to say who knows Li Er best in this world, it is naturally Empress Changsun Undoubtedly, Empress Changsun asked with some confusion.

"Is there something the saint is hiding from his concubine?"

Listening to the queen's words, Li Er was simply a clever man, and secretly said in his heart, if the queen knew him so well, he would be happy in his heart, but now, he was cold in his heart, this is related to a happy life in the next few months, Li Er coughed dryly, and said with a straight face.

"What's the queen hiding from you?"

Empress Eldest Sun asked with a smile.

"Really?"

Li Er nodded.

"Not really!"

Empress Eldest Sun was a little puzzled.

"But why does the concubine think the saint is weird today?"

Li Er stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow, covering up.

"It's been too busy here for two days, and I'm choked by the popularity of Tibet."

Li Li said with a smile.

"Father doesn't have to be angry, the last defeat was because Zhang Liang was too light on the enemy, this time the court attaches so much importance to it, and the leader is a battle-hardened famous general, and he will definitely be able to drive the Tubo people back to the plateau."

Li Er said with a smile.

"Well, it's still Changle who knows best, Li Yong went on the expedition, you don't have to worry, this kid is a genius, and the muskets and artillery of the Shenji Battalion are invincible in the world for defending and attacking the city, so you just have to raise the fetus with peace of mind, give birth to a big fat son for him, and wait for him to triumph is double happiness."

Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"Your father is right, the most important thing for you now is to raise the baby with peace of mind, don't think about anything else, don't care about anything, and give birth to the child safely and securely is more important than anything else."

Li Lizhi pursed her lips and smiled.

"Father, queen mother, rest assured, I understand the truth."

Xue Wanche rode straight to the Shenji Camp, and Li Yong had just come out of the Shenji Camp when he saw Xue Wanche coming quickly.

"The Princess!"

Xue Wanche jumped off the horse with a sudden, Xue Wanche is a straight man, so Li Yong could see at a glance that the expression on Xue Wanche's face was a little strange, this guy is excited every time he goes out, why is it a little wilted this time? Li Yong looked up and down and asked with a smile.

"What? Princess Danyang doesn't want you to go on the expedition? ”

Xue Wanche shook his head again and again.

"No, no, the princess wants me to go on the expedition, the princess is pregnant, it's useless for me to stay in Chang'an, it's better to go on the expedition!"

"Princess Danyang is pregnant? That's a good thing! ”

Li Yong said with a smile, he also knew that Princess Danyang was pregnant.

Xue Wanche scratched his head and said.

"It was only diagnosed the day before yesterday."

"Princess Danyang is pregnant, why don't you look so happy?"

Li Yong asked with some doubts, at this moment, Li Yong couldn't help but wonder in his heart, carefully observing whether there was a green light above Xue Wanche's head, Li Er's princesses had a good reputation, but Li Yuan's later princesses had a bad reputation, probably because of negligent discipline, but he really hadn't heard of any debauchery rumors about Princess Danyang outside, although Xue Wanche did have some pockets before, but in recent years, his position in the court has also been stable, and he has a financial way, What's more important is that with Sun Simiao's ancestral elixir, Xue Wanche has also regained his strength, so Princess Danyang should not do anything out of the ordinary, to put it mildly, even if Princess Danyang doesn't care about others, then she has to take care of him Li Yong, right? In the past few years, Xue Wanche has followed him like a younger brother, there is no credit and hard work, Li Yong is a very protective person, it is impossible to watch his own people being bullied, Xue Wanche scratched his head and smiled.

"Happy, of course I'm happy, the princess said that I have to make more merit for my son to earn a family business."

Isn't this exactly what Xue Wanche wants? Li Yong thought about it, immediately figured it out, and said with a smile.

"I see, you're not willing to guard the grain and grass, are you? Think there's no credit for guarding the grain and grass? ”

Xue Wanche quickly shook his head and said.

"No, no, no, I don't want to, of course I'm extremely willing to guard the grain and grass with the county prince, as long as I follow the county prince to do anything."

In fact, Li Yong also understood in his heart that Xue Wanche must be very willing to guard the grain and grass with him, of course, he will inevitably feel some regrets in his heart, after all, this guy is simply born to fight, and his favorite thing is to charge into battle, Li Yong patted Xue Wanche on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Old Xue, believe me or not?"

Xue Wanche nodded repeatedly.

"Believe, of course!"

If you want to say that the person in the world who makes Xue Wanche believe the most, it must be Li Yong, Li Yong said with a smile.

"This expedition, don't be afraid that there will be no battle, I am afraid that you will vomit when you fight!"
