Chapter 21: The Free "Maid" (21)
The imperial capital is lively here.
When the newly released uncle Zhang Feng of the Protector and the Protector of the Kingdom went to court three days after their wedding.
The emperor also threw out a major news, and the protector was dizzy.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a happy thing to share with you today."
"Some time ago, the general of the protector led the troops to the southwest, changed the guard, and took the initiative to attack, attacked Xirong, the head of the general of Xirong, Xirong has surrendered, and submitted the document of the minister, and the general of the protector has also returned to the court."
This news directly blew up the entire court.
What's going on?
Changing guards? When did this happen? What about the protectors?
You won't be killed by the Protector General, right?
And how many people did the general take with him? There must be no less, otherwise how can you take down the people of the 100,000 garrison protectors? Then why didn't there be any movement at all, they didn't receive any news?
If all the 100,000 horses left behind by the Protector are killed, it is absolutely impossible, although the Protector is arrogant and domineering, but those soldiers are all heroes of the country.
If you do that, whether it is the emperor or the general who protects the country, I am afraid that the reputation will not be good.
Many of the ministers' faces began to turn pale.
The military department Shangshu is also anxious, he is originally a member of the Protector of the Country, one is prosperous, and one is lost.
He walked out directly: "Your Majesty, the general led the troops to change the guard, why don't the ministers know?" Also, where did the soldiers who were originally stationed there? ”
The emperor looked at the military department for a long time, this person, who used to be a martial champion, was personally promoted by him, but in more than ten years, he fell to the protector.
Now seeing this person's impatient appearance, the emperor felt inexplicably comfortable.
"The general of the protector went to the southwest, he was ordered by me, I don't know, I do things, I have to inform you of the military department, and also, you were questioning me just now?"
"Weichen doesn't dare!"
The emperor didn't care about this trivial matter at this time: "The original garrison has asked the general to escort him home, and those generals have been sent to the northern frontier. ”
"The 100,000 soldiers and horses have also been rewarded for meritorious deeds by the general of the Protector of the Country, and they will be sent to their hometowns to be escorted back to their hometowns, arranged to work in the yamen or other places, or go home to plow the fields."
"Lord Shangshu is so anxious, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will kill those people? I have never been a donkey killer, and since I ascended the throne, don't you know how to behave? I will be unhappy to question me like this, and my patience is limited. I am willing to give you a chance, and you must not spoil my good intentions. ”
"All along, it has never been me who is pressing step by step, I am grateful to every soldier who fought for the country, and I hope they can live a good life, and I hope not to disappoint me."
"By the way, fifteen days later, the general of the protector will return to the court, and everyone will welcome our god of war at the gate of the city."
The emperor laughed and announced his retreat.
He just felt refreshed.
After being an emperor for so many years, for the first time, I felt that there was nothing to suppress above my head.
At this time, the protector of the country, the whole person seemed to have lost his spirit.
He knew that he had lost this battle completely.
Xirong is not easy to fight, otherwise he would not have been grinding in the southwest for five years, it is not that he is not able to work, but people have scared the other party in such a short period of time and scattered it, which is enough to show that this general who protects the country is really a little capable.
He didn't have any soldiers in his hands, so he was simply set up as an empty shell?
Although Zhang Feng didn't have much knowledge, when he saw the expression of the protector and what he had just heard, he knew that his father-in-law was only afraid that he would lose power.
This made him frown slightly.
After all, he pressed the treasure on the body of the protector before, so he married Guan Jinglan.
Otherwise, the emperor intended to recruit him as a concubine, and he should have chosen the princess.
Damn, if this had been earlier, he wouldn't have married Guan Jinglan.
However, Zhang Feng also knew that even if the Protector lost power, he would still be a behemoth, and he would clean up his mood, so naturally no one could see it.
On the same day, Guan Jinglan was called back to the Protector's Mansion.
The Lord Protector is not worried, since the emperor has already hinted at some words in the court, he will naturally not touch him.
But I know my own affairs.
Over the years, some of the things he has done have not been good.
The children of the family are acting recklessly in the imperial capital, and from today onwards, they will definitely be restrained.
Otherwise, when the time comes, I am afraid that I will make trouble and fold one into it.
And at the beginning, he was worried that King Jing would share the emperor's worries, and a few people along the way, but they were all good seedlings, and they were all threatened by him when they were cultivated and became generals.
He was worried that he was getting older, and people would train a group to replace him, so he arranged it early and killed everyone, and at that time the news came back that Fu Mingzhu was also there, and he issued a killing order.
But in the end, none of his subordinates came back, and Fu Mingzhu and Lu San came back.
That's enough to say it all.
These handles are very deadly.
In the family, his daughter is the most wanton, so he naturally wants to tell him personally, so that he will not be able to save his daughter if he gets into trouble.
Guan Jinglan and Zhang Feng have been blending oil in honey these days, with ruddy faces and smiles.
Seeing his daughter's words, the protector was also relieved.
"Lan Lan, Daddy called you back today because he has something to tell you."
"In the early days of the dynasty today, the emperor said something, Daddy has no soldiers under him, even your uncles and uncles have all been transferred to the north, which is not Daddy's territory, although Daddy now has a military talisman in his hand, but it has been hollowed out."
"Lan Lan, your temperament, Daddy knows, you are the most straightforward, and you can't stand it, but Daddy wants to tell you that from today on, we have to endure more, think more, and live a peaceful life."
Guan Shanhe looked at Guan Jinglan deadly, wanting her to know the seriousness of the matter.
Guan Jinglan was stunned at first, and then her face turned a little pale.
Over the years, she has been rampaging in the imperial capital, and she naturally knows what she relies on, that is, the princess and county lord, and she doesn't pay attention to it all.
But if Daddy doesn't have the same scenery as before, she is also the daughter of a duke, how can she compare with princesses and county lords?
As soon as she thought that she would attend a banquet or something in the future, and she would be ridiculed by those people, she felt uncomfortable.
The whole person seemed to be in a trance.
Guan Shanhe's heart ached, when did his daughter have been wronged, but in the future, some things, even if they were wronged, they had to endure it.
In fact, His Majesty is Mingjun, over the years, if he is not so rigid and self-serving, so there is no one in his eyes, An An is divided into troops, and His Majesty wants to take back the talisman, he will hand it back quickly, will he not end up in such a situation?
The family will not be so lawless?
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.
