Chapter 143: Expedition
said, "Brother Wang, you go back to the house and settle down, I will arrange all the grain and grass for you one by one, and I won't let you have any worries." ”
"You can go to this battle with confidence, I have my backing for you, if anyone dares to do anything about this, I will punish him for the nine clans, in order to comfort General Xia and his wife's heroic spirit."
"Yes, Emperor Xie is sympathetic, and Weichen retires."
The emperor looked at him worriedly and said, "Fu'an will send Prince Jing quickly." ”
"Hey, old slave obeys! Lord, slow down. King Jing stumbled at his feet and almost fell to the ground again.
Most of his body was leaning on Fu'an, slowly walking more and more firmly, and the whole person seemed to come to life.
He knew in his heart that only he could avenge his eldest son's revenge.
In the future, he is the only one who will sincerely seek the blessing of his eldest grandson, and now his poor child is still looking forward to the border, and he must sort out his mood and set off for the border as soon as possible.
King Jing was choked brightly and was sent out of the palace gate by Fu'an.
He knew that tomorrow the border military would spread throughout the capital, and the emperor would also issue an order tomorrow to let him leave for the border.
Fu'an kept sending him out of the gate of the inner courtyard of the palace, and the prince turned over and got on the horse neatly, and the sound of the horse's hooves gradually faded away.
Staying next to him, looking at him from afar, praying for him in his heart, this old prince has been fighting all his life, hoping that this time he will be able to turn evil into good fortune and bring back General Xiaoxia safely.
He stood in front of the palace gate and watched until the figure of the old prince could no longer be seen, and he did not move.
The little eunuchs passing by next to him all bent their waists to breathe lightly and lowered their footsteps, for fear that they would disturb Fu'an.
Thinking back then, who was he with the emperor, he met the wise and martial old prince, who was a half-grown child and had not yet started a family.
Every step he took showed the style of a martial artist, which made him can't help but admire, and even thought about how good it would be if he could be entrusted with such a person in his next life!
Even if he could learn half of his demeanor, it would be enough for him to be happy for a long time.
Later, as the prince Jing and the emperor who was still the crown prince at the time became more and more familiar. Every time the prince brought some gadgets to the prince, he would bring him something too.
Slowly, his admiration for the old prince deepened, and the past few decades have passed peacefully, and he can't help but sweat for the old prince, how many people have come with the emperor.
is still his best friend when he was the prince, and it was for one reason or another that he was separated halfway.
The better ones were sent by the emperor to be officials outside, and they were never allowed to return to Beijing, and they were almost beheaded, and there were not a few people who were punished by the nine clans.
In the first ten years of the emperor's ascension to the throne, he was never worried.
Because the court was not stable at that time, the old prince was needed to guard the emperor both inside and outside, but from the eleventh year of his reign, the emperor showed his majesty more and more.
The more he worries about the old prince, for fear that one day he will also annoy the emperor, and he is soft-spoken.
Even if he is trying to serve the emperor by himself, he may not be sure that he will let the emperor release him after so many years, not to mention that the old prince still has a family member, if he just saves him, I am afraid that he will live in regret for the rest of his life.
He didn't want the handsome young man he saw when he was young to get such an end.
For many years, he has been acting as a lubricant between him and the emperor, but fortunately, the emperor has always trusted this brother who is eleven years older than himself.
Grandpa Wang knows that he is already in a state of cooking oil, he has been cautious in his words and deeds, and has never caused any big trouble, and the two sides have always been at peace with each other, until now the war has broken out again.
The news that General Xia and his wife died in battle on the frontier will not spread until tomorrow, and it will be a pity, but it is a pity that the old prince has been fighting horses for a lifetime.
At this time, there is still a march. Cleaning up the mess for the children at home, he was both a little angry with General Xia's anger, and a little sad and lamentable, the person has died in the hospital, what's the use?
It's just that General Naxia has been on the battlefield for more than 20 years, and he will never make such a mistake, and there must be traitors here.
His eyes became more and more determined, and he must secretly investigate in the capital to see who had a grudge against the old prince and wanted to kill him.
If he finds out, he will not be soft, and he will definitely avenge General Xia and his wife with his enemies.
It's just that at the moment, in this capital, there are many ears and eyes, and there are factional disputes, and he also has to think about the old prince, if he goes on an expedition, who will settle the hearts of the army in this big rear.
He thought about it, the county lord of Qingqing is so smart and clever, it must be more reassuring to hand over this matter to him, after all, his identity is here, if he is too close to Prince Jing, it will inevitably attract the suspicion of the emperor.
If it's just him, he doesn't care if he's doing his best, and if he implicates the old prince at that time, how can it be good?
His mind turned a thousand times, and he kept standing in front of the palace gate, never moving, and listened to a small eunuch in the distance shouting, "Ancestor, ancestor!" The emperor called your ancestor! ”
He looked back and saw a little eunuch running over in a panic, his face covered with beads of sweat. Fu'an Laocheng said, "How many times have you told you about the little things that don't worry?" Loud noises are forbidden in the inner courtyard of the palace, and you will be sweaty and unseemly. ”
The little eunuch pounced, knelt on the ground, and said, "Ancestor, the emperor is summoning you, looking at the big temper, the little ones dare not decide, and they specially came to ask the ancestor what to do?" ”
Fu'an shook off the dust and said, "Let's go, follow me to see Long Live Lord." ”
Fu'an quietly walked to the front of the main hall, took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, put on the smile of the sister on his face again, bent over, and carefully pushed open the door of the hall.
He saw that the emperor seemed to be drained of his mind, sitting on the dragon chair, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is the best tea to calm the nerves, you can drink some!" ”
The emperor looked at the person who had accompanied him for many years and said, "You say, who wants to harm Brother Wang?" ”
"Brother Wang, who has had no grudges with others for so many years, why can't some people see him well, why can't some people see the Iron Frame Dynasty well?"
"That Turkic barbarian is an animal that drinks human blood and eats human flesh, if this kind of person is really allowed to step into our country, then how can our people have good fruit to eat?"
"Why are there such wolf-hearted people? , I Qixia Dynasty gave birth to them, raised them, and turned to the head but they wanted to bite us in turn, I. The emperor lamented silently, and remained silent.
Fu An chuckled in his heart, understanding that the emperor, this is already the latest news, it must be a thief's business, with eyebrows, he lowered his voice and asked, "Your Majesty, you know the ins and outs of the matter." ”
The emperor snapped the fold in his hand, threw it into his arms, and said, "See for yourself," he sighed, rubbing his forehead irritably.
Fu'an hurriedly opened it, read it at a glance, and immediately fell to his knees with a thud, "Your Majesty, you have to make decisions for General Xia and his wife!" ”
"The poor old prince is so old, and he has to rush to the border to rescue the poor little grandson, who has lost his parents at such an age, and the blow must be big enough."
"You must be aware of everything, this matter must have nothing to do with General Xiao Xia, it is his parents, he can't cut off this hand."
"Even if you don't believe him, you should believe in the old prince, his eldest grandson is the most precious of the old prince, the old prince was in his arms wherever he went, and he hurt like a jewel for several years."
"Until Xia Jingrui was three years old, he had never left the old prince half a step!"
"How many times, when you passed on the old prince, he also brought that grandson to show you, saying that he wanted to touch your dragon energy, which shows how much he expects from Xia Jingrui."
"I also know what you said that Brother Wang has very high expectations for his grandson, and every trick and style of his grandson is taught by him personally."
"Later, when his second grandson and third grandson landed, they were not treated like his eldest grandson."
"But the military newspaper said that the group of people who followed General Xia out of the city was because they saw General Xiao Xia, who was robbed by the enemy, so General Xia led his troops out of the city regardless of it, wanting to save his son in person."
"Thirty miles out of the city, he was ambushed. The soldiers who followed General Xia were all dead, and he was the only one left with a few cronies holding on, and finally waited for reinforcements. ”
"At this time, Xia Qiu came to the rescue with his own soldiers and most of the soldiers left behind in the city."
"At that time, General Xia also asked his wife if she had seen her son."
"Mrs. Xia also said that when he heard that his husband was captured, he hurried out of the city in a hurry, and also sent someone to look for this Xiao Xia General, but he didn't find it."
"Only after the death of General Xia and his wife in battle, this Xiao Xia appeared in the city again and led everyone to the rescue, but he was a step too late. only snatched back the bodies of General Xia and his wife. ”
"There are a lot of doubts in this, why didn't General Xia find General Xiao Xia when he led his troops out of the city."
"And when Mrs. Xia led the troops out of the city to rescue, she didn't see General Xiao Xia."
"It's just that after these two people died in battle, General Xiao Xia appeared, leading everyone to the rescue, everything developed too coincidentally, I can't help but be suspicious!"
"Your Majesty, it will definitely not be General Xiao Xia's poisonous hand. The old prince has held him like a jewel for so many years, if this is the case, how do you call the old prince to deal with himself? ”
"His grandson killed his son and daughter-in-law. Moreover, General Xiao Xia has a very good relationship with his father and mother. ”
