Chapter 6: The fickle Zhao Zheng

Jiang Yuyan's face was blushing, like a peach hanging on the treetops.

The white face is full of crimson, which makes people salivate, and the coquettish voice is also an endless ecstasy.

Zhao Zheng, who heard this, did not stop, but his face showed a playful look.

"Aifei, if your hands are shaking, why don't you find a doctor to help you diagnose and treat you?"

Zhao Zheng's face full of playfulness suddenly became cold, and he held Jiang Yuyan's hands tightly.

Seeing such a cold face, Jiang Yuyan suddenly felt that she didn't know the emperor in front of her, it was like a different person, and her heart was extremely cold all of a sudden.

As if he would be killed by the strange man in front of him in an instant, his originally delicate face immediately turned pale.

"Why did Your Majesty say this? The concubine's hand was not shaking, but she couldn't grasp the imperial pen. ”

Jiang Yuyan said with a little embarrassment.

The corners of Zhao Zheng's mouth, who heard this, rose as if he was joking.

grabbed Jiang Yuyan's hands tightly with one hand and pressed them on the table with his backhand.

"Concubine Ai's hands and feet are cold, and she is very distressed, why don't you and I rest earlier, just leave these trivial things to Jiang Aiqing to do, why do you care for Concubine Ai?"

Zhao Zheng looked confused, looking like an infatuated species, infatuated with Jiang Yuyan in front of him, but he was wary of the woman in front of him in his heart.

Jiang Yuyan, who heard this, was a little confused for a while.

I watched the man in front of me return to his original appearance, not like what I saw just now.

Then he closed his eyes and opened his lips slightly.

An hour later, Zhao Zheng, who got up from the bed, looked at Jiang Yuyan, who was already asleep, and felt uneasy.

"How so? This is obviously a dead end, and the slightest negligence will be life-threatening! ”

Zhao Zheng, who was full of sadness, said secretly in his heart.

At this time, Jiang Yuyan, who was still sleeping delicately and soundly on the bed, didn't know that the man in front of her had become wary of her.

In late autumn, the western capital belongs to the northwest of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and the cold wind is biting.

Xiao Ponu held the letter written by his sister, and his face turned pale.

"General, this matter is very important, if you really lead the army back to the Western Capital, I'm afraid it will cause trouble!"

The lieutenant on the side reminded in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Ponu held the letter tightly in his hand and closed his eyes.

Then, his eyes were blazing, looking at the location of the southern and western capitals.

"It seems that His Majesty is really awake."

Xiao Ponu's face was full of excitement, and he didn't seem to care about the reminder of the deputy general next to him.

It just felt like the letter in his hand had brought him back to life.

"General, don't be impulsive, this is just a secret letter, and this is not a real edict that you can't bring troops back to Beijing at all, if so, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and no one will be able to save the general at that time!"

The adjutant general persuaded with a sad expression.

Hearing this, Xiao Ponu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He knew that the content of the letter in his hand was not what his sister said, but the meaning of the current emperor Zhao Zheng.

"We wait for the courtiers to eat the king's fortune, the matter of loyalty to the king, and the worries of the king, where do you come from looking left and right, looking forward and backward, since there is the emperor's secret edict, then I must go back to the western capital to wait for the summons."

Xiao Ponu's expression was solemn, and he looked very resolute.

At the same time, the adjutant general on the side bowed his head and remained silent, knowing full well that if his general decided on one thing, he would never be dissuaded.

"General, the matter has come to this point, and the last general will not persuade him to stay, but 30,000 tigers will be pulled out overnight, and it will take at least seven days to return to the Western Capital, passing through Humen Pass on the way, Pingyang Pass has not received a real edict, General, how can you pass through the two Xiongguan?"

The deputy general made the last insistence, and it seemed that he didn't want Xiao Ponu to lead his troops back to the capital.

Xiao Ponu, who heard this, also knew in his heart that what the deputy general said was not groundless, and it was definitely difficult.

After all, the secret edict in his hand is not a real holy decree, if he sends the border guards back to the imperial city to capture the king, without a real holy decree, it is tantamount to rebellion.

"Now that the situation in the court is so turbulent, Jiang Yong controls the government, I believe that even His Majesty the Emperor's holy decree will not be able to leave the imperial city!"

Xiao Ponu said with a sigh.

Seeing Xiao Ponu's worried look, the deputy general also felt that what he said had played a role, and he couldn't help but feel a touch of pride in his heart.

"General, in the eyes of the last general, although this matter is very important, it cannot be rushed, after all, the number of 30,000 tigers is too large, but if there are only 5,000 people and horses, it is another matter."

The deputy general looked at Xiao Ponu with a look of concern.

But in his heart, he was thinking about waiting for the other party to leave, and then directly control the Mingshui Fortress.

Xiao Ponu, who was very anxious, also felt that this was reasonable, but when he looked at his lieutenant, he was still a little worried.

After all, the person in front of him was not trustworthy, he was just a prison soldier who had been arranged here by the imperial court a long time ago.

Although on the surface, the deputy general in front of him has nothing to do with Jiang Yong, and even two hostile forces.

It's just that everything is centered on interests, and as long as the interests are enough, then hostility can become allies.

"Okay, according to what you said, only 5,000 soldiers and horses, but you will take the lead first, and I will follow."

Xiao Ponu smiled indifferently, and after finishing speaking, the deputy general, who was still very proud in his heart, suddenly became half cold.

He has no real power in front of him, he is just a prison soldier placed next to Xiao Ponu.

In the final analysis, I still have to listen to Xiao Ponu, and I have no power to resist at all, so I can only passively accept it.

In this way, all the calculations just made will be in vain.

"The last general commands!"

The lieutenant didn't say much, and there was no complaint on his face, and he started to act after leaving.

looked at the departing deputy general Xiao Ponu, his expression was solemn, and he also understood that the Xiao family was already in danger at this moment.

"Sister, wait for me, when I get to the Western Capital, everything will be solved."

Xiao Ponu walked out of the military tent with a resolute face.

In the imperial city of the Western Capital, Zhao Zheng, as usual, was like a bee picking flowers, frolicking surrounded by countless bewitching concubines, looking like a debaucherous king.

At this moment, Jiang Yuyan did not feel surprised when she saw this scene, but was very pleased.

Until now, this king has not changed.

At this time, the father-in-law who was accompanying Jiang Yuyan also saw such a scene, and showed a flattering face.

"Guifei Niangniang, it seems that Your Majesty did not take it to heart because of yesterday's incident, but rose more than ever."

The father-in-law whispered in Jiang Yuyan's ear.

"Father-in-law Chen, this matter is over, you should inform my father now and tell him that everything is okay as usual."

Jiang Yuyan smiled coldly, and then stepped forward, and at the same time, Zhao Zhengzheng was blindfolded and grasping the concubines around him.
