Chapter 249: The New Army (1)

Every time this topic was mentioned, Zhao Xiyan and Xu Jing were silent.

After a while, Xu Jing cheered up and smiled: "The sky has eyes, maybe it will give my cousin a way out." There are many things that are different from what you dreamed of now. ”

Zhao Xiyan thought about it and laughed: "Yes! The prince did not marry Su Jin, but wanted to marry Su Huan and Murong Yan. Perhaps, this is the opportunity for change. ”

and Murong Shen.

In his previous life, he married Gao Pingping as his wife, and he was helped by the Marquis of Zhongyong, and he commanded the world with the Son of Heaven in troubled times. Today's Dajin is different from the previous life.

The civil unrest in Jizhou was quelled, the country was determined to be fair, and the state was merged, and the troops were already led back to Beijing. Although the Great Jin Dynasty was full of bandits, it did not really shake the foundation. The ambitions of Murong Shen's father and son were naturally overwhelmed.

Xu Jing obviously thought of one thing with Zhao Xiyan, and laughed in a low voice: "There is one more thing, I will tell you one person quietly." ”

"My cousin plans to form a new army, and it is expected to recruit 10,000 elite soldiers, which will be called the Tiger Battalion to defend the East Palace."

Zhao Xiyan raised his eyes with some surprise: "This is not a trivial matter, will the emperor approve it?" ”

Xu Jing smiled: "I have four sisters, and my father is obedient to me, and everything is up to me." My cousin has been an only son since he was a child, and he was named a grandson early, and later became a prince. Even though the emperor has a thousand shortcomings, he is very good to his cousin. ”

"My cousin wants to form an army and recruit people for the East Palace openly, and the emperor will not stop him at all."

Speaking of this, Xu Jing's voice paused, and his voice was lowered: "My cousin is sick and weak, so it is not appropriate to leave the palace from time to time." Therefore, my cousin will take the lead, and the real recruitment and training of new recruits will fall on me. ”

Zhao Xiyan was really shocked this time, she subconsciously grabbed Xu Jing's hand: "Is this what the prince told you personally?" ”

Xu Jing snorted: "As early as Jizhou, my cousin was thinking about this matter and told me once or twice in private. As soon as my cousin returned to the capital, he fell ill, and the matter was delayed. With his cousin's temperament, when he can get out of bed, he will discuss the matter with the emperor. ”

This is different from going to Jizhou to fight.

In Jizhou, Xu Jing went into battle on behalf of the crown prince. Most of the credit goes to the crown prince. After the battle, the soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion returned to the commander-in-chief.

Forming a new army and training new soldiers is truly capable of taking control of the army.

Xu Jing is the prince of the vassal king, with a special identity, can the prince really allow Xu Jing to be in charge of the army? Even if the crown prince is willing, can Emperor Yongming not be suspicious?

"Brother Chunsheng," Zhao Xiyan restrained his smile and looked calm: "Have you thought about it?" This is a double-edged sword, maybe you can't eat mutton, you will only get into a fishy shame. ”

Xu Jing held Zhao Xiyan's hand with his backhand, and his voice was firm: "I have thought about it a long time ago." As long as my cousin believes in me, I am not afraid of anything. ”

"When I was in Jizhou, I looked like a beautiful person, but in fact, the people who could really command were the hundreds of soldiers around me. Those arrogant generals only listen to the orders of their own commanders. The prince of Dingguo and the Marquis of Zhongyong were so polite to me because of his cousin's face. ”

"Only when you have soldiers and generals in your hands can you really gallop on the battlefield."

"Only with military power in our hands can we deter such shameless people with bad intentions."

Xu Jing's last sentence was obviously scolding Murong Shen.

Zhao Xiyan was in a state of turmoil, and opened his mouth for a while to say: "I don't know anything about recruiting new soldiers for training. Now that you've got it figured out, let it go! ”

Xu Jing nodded, reached out and hugged Zhao Xiyan into his arms, put his forehead against her forehead, and whispered softly: "I believe cousin." ”

Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly, tilted his head slightly, and kissed Xu Jing's lips; "I believe in you."

……

The next day, after Xu Jing entered the palace, the first thing he did was to go to the East Palace to congratulate him.

His Royal Highness the Prince, who has been lying on the bed for a few days, has already gotten out of bed today.

Xu Jing glanced at the prince and grinned: "People are in good spirits when they are happy, this is not true at all." Look at my cousin, it's really red today. ”

Then, he gave his hand with admiration: "It's still a cousin, and I marry two daughters-in-law at a time." Admire, admire! ”

The crown prince was amused by Xu Jing's exaggerated congratulations, and said with a smile: "The heirs of the heavenly family are thin, and my father is the only son like me." Not to mention marrying two, even marrying three or five, my father will not stop him. ”

"By the way, my wedding date is four days earlier than yours, and it is scheduled for the second day of October."

Xu Jing was a little surprised: "In this way, there are only more than two months. ”

This is also too hasty!

The prince smiled casually: "I married a side concubine, and the etiquette is not so cumbersome." The auspicious day was simply set earlier. ”

The crown princess and the princess are only one word different, but they are actually far behind. The crown princess is the prince's wife, and although the prince's side concubine is a high-grade inner wife, she is essentially a concubine. Carrying two concubines into the door is naturally not so troublesome.

Looking at the smiling prince, Xu Jing hesitated slightly, but still asked: "Cousin, why are you doing this?" ”

Why should you give up the girl you like?

Why did you marry Su Huan and Murong Yan?

The prince's expression did not change, and his smile was still gentle: "I have my own reasons for doing this." You'll understand later. ”

The prince refused to say it, and Xu Jing couldn't do it, so he sighed secretly in his heart, and quickly changed the topic: "Did my cousin tell the emperor about forming a new army?" ”

The prince smiled: "I was about to go to the Fuyou Hall to see my father. You come with me. ”

Xu Jing was not stunned at all, and responded with a smile.

The prince smiled knowingly.

A manly man who acts uprightly. If Xu Jing wants to take charge of the army, he has to pass the pass of Emperor Yongming.

Xu Jing reached out and grabbed the prince's left wrist and walked out with the prince. The prince glanced at him, and suddenly smiled: "Where is the Xu Shiyi who slaps sycophants all day long?" How did you change people? ”

The person who followed Xu Jing today was not Xu Shiyi, but Xu San, who was tall and strong, silent and silent.

Xu Jing said with a smile: "I let Xu Shiyi go to Zhao Mansion, Xu San has the best skills and the most calm work." In the future, I will go to the new army camp, and it is appropriate to take Xu San with me. ”

Then, with a little dissatisfaction, he protested for Xu Shiyi: "Xu Shiyi is loyal and honest, not a sycophant." ”

The prince smiled and teased: "Yes, yes, there are so many pro-soldiers around you, Xu Shiyi is the most honest." Never lie in your mouth. ”

After a few jokes, I soon arrived at the Blessing Palace.

When the prince entered the Blessing Palace, he never had to pass it on. Today, he was stopped by Ma Gonggong.

The prince was a little unhappy and glanced at Gonggong Ma.

Gonggong Ma bent down and smiled: "The prince and concubine of Yingchuan are asking for peace, please wait for a while." ”

When the prince heard the name of the prince and his wife in Yingchuan, his brows moved.
