Empress Zhang had been waiting patiently for an hour, and Chen Yi hurried to Jing'an Palace under the leadership of the palace people.

After a few brief words, Chen Yi left.

He did not go back to his mansion, but went directly to his big tent in the forbidden military camp, and quickly summoned all the generals here.

"All the generals know that His Majesty's expedition to Wujun has not returned, and General Ma Chun of Hanzhong is also with His Majesty, and Hanzhong is temporarily under the management of his lieutenant. I intend to send people to Hanzhong and the counties under its jurisdiction to carry out labor troops, with the intention of calming the hearts of the army and the people there, all kinds of materials have been prepared, I don't know which general is willing to go? Chen Yi asked.

No one answered.

Chen Yi sighed deliberately.

His Majesty often lamented that there was no one around him, and those who gained strength were all after the old ministers who were in the time of the ancestors, whether it was Zhang Shao and Zhao Tong who were far away in Chencang, or Ma Chun, who followed His Majesty's side, this is the case. Today, I can only complete the important task entrusted by His Majesty only after using such a femoral humerus. ”

The crowd remained silent.

"Where is General Huang Yuan?" Chen Yi suddenly shouted.

Huang Yuan, who was standing in the last row, was a little surprised, and he didn't even believe that Chen You's name would be his name. It wasn't until he saw that Chen Yi had been staring at him that he suddenly woke up and hurriedly walked to the bottom of the steps.

"General Huang Yuan is the former veteran of my Shu Han Dynasty, Huang Zhong, Your Majesty has always been very concerned about you, but because of the busy state affairs, he did not have time to summon him. Before leaving, he also asked the official to take special care of you, and bluntly said that after he returned, he would definitely treat the general seriously. Chen Yi said.

"General, thank you and Lord Chen." Huang Yuan was a little flattered.

Chen Yi waved his hand at the people under the steps, signaling that they could go back separately.

Everyone left, and a few people turned around and deliberately cast envious glances at Huang Yuan.

Seeing that there was no one else in the big tent, Chen Yi leaned forward.

"Did General Huang Yuan hear what the official said? At present, there is only one general who can be used around the official. ”

Huang Yuan's eyes quickly rolled a few times.

"Thank you Lord Chen for your trust, the last general will definitely live up to his mission and send all the materials of the labor army to Hanzhong and the counties under his jurisdiction."

"Definitely." Chen Yi waved his hand again and again, "This official doesn't want you to go to the labor army, as long as this official sends a middle officer." ”

"If so, Lord Chen left the last general, is there another use?" Huang Yuan was a little puzzled.

Chen Yi nodded and leaned forward again.

"General Huang Yuan didn't know that the official had to report that His Majesty and General Ma Chun and others were fighting with Cao Wei's men and horses in Wujun was very unfavorable, and more than half of the soldiers and horses had been lost. His Majesty and the Empress said that this important task was not up to General Huang Yuan. It's not that other generals are incompetent, but ......" Speaking of this, Chen Yi deliberately lowered his voice again, "but I am worried that there will be people such as Chen Ji and Liu Heng in our army again." ”

Huang Yuan's body shook.

"According to what Lord Chen said, Your Majesty may retreat from Hanzhong in the near future?"

"Although this official does not dare to make assumptions, he guesses from His Majesty's letter that this possibility is extremely high." Chen Yi replied.

Huang Yuan's eyes rolled a few times again.

"How many men and horses does General Huang Yuan command now?" Chen Yi changed the topic and asked.

Huang Yuan stretched out five fingers.

Chen Yi seemed to be a little unconvinced, and asked, "Five hundred? ”

Huang Yuan nodded.

"After the dignified old general Huang, he only commanded five hundred soldiers, if this matter is known to His Majesty, he must blame the official for not being able to reuse the general." Chen Yi said deliberately and thought about it, "In this way, this official will order that the officers of the middle school should select five hundred strong soldiers from each camp and transfer them to General Huang Yuan." From tomorrow, you will be stationed outside the palace, and if there is any change, you can immediately send people into the palace to protect the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother and others from the palace safely. ”

Huang Yuan didn't expect such a heavy responsibility to fall on his head.

From this point of view, the war of the later lord Liu Yong in Wujun should be extremely unfavorable.

"Thank you Lord Chen for your trust, I will go back to prepare for this, and I can bring people to strictly guard the palace early tomorrow morning."

"General Huang Yuan must not take such a major event lightly, when the forbidden army arrives, he still needs to use good words to appease the people in the palace, and do not cause panic." Chen Yi admonished.

"When the last general knew, he said that it was to prevent the people in the city from causing trouble." Huang Yuan said.

Chen Yi nodded.

Imperial Palace, Jing'an Palace:

Empress Zhang is also in full swing.

"Has the gift sent by the palace to Concubine Ju have been delivered?" Empress Zhang asked Xiyuedao.

"Niangniang, don't worry, the slave is worried that other people will be careless, so she specially asked Sister Qinglian to bring someone there, and she should come back at this time." Satsuki replied.

Empress Zhang smiled.

"That's fine, don't ask Qinglian to go back to do those rough jobs in the future, stay by your side and me, it can be regarded as a good sister."

"I know that the queen mother has this kind of mind, otherwise the slave and maid would not dare to place it next to the queen mother without authorization." Tsuki said.

As he was talking, footsteps sounded, and Qinglian walked in with another palace maid.

"The slave maid was ordered to deliver the gift from Niangniang Chitose to Concubine Ju Niangniang, and Concubine Ju Niangniang was very grateful, and specially sent Miss Ru'er next to her to thank the queen in person." Qinglian said.

Ru'er knelt in front of Empress Zhang.

"The slave maid was ordered by Concubine Ju to thank the queen."

Empress Zhang was not interested in Ru'er and Qinglian's words.

"How long have you been following my sister Jufei?" Empress Zhang asked suddenly.

Ru'er didn't dare to look up.

"Back to the queen, the slave maid entered the palace earlier, and has been serving by Concubine Ju's side for five or six years."

"In this way, she is also a trustworthy person by Sister Ju's side." Empress Zhang nodded, but said, "Even so, the palace is still a little worried, in the future, I will wait for my sisters to have contacts, and I need Sister Ju to write a handwritten letter to inform me of the receipt." ”

"Yes, the slave will tell Concubine Ju as soon as she goes back." Ru'er didn't dare to refute, but the boss was unhappy in her heart, it must be suspected by others for no reason like this, which is a very bad thing.

"Well, go ahead." Empress Zhang said, and instructed Qinglian, "Send Miss Ru'er on behalf of the palace." ”

"The slave and maid are gone."

Accompanied by Qinglian, Ru'er withdrew.

"Miss Ru'er, don't be careful, my queen is usually generous and never asks about these little things, maybe the gift to Concubine Ju is extraordinary, so it will be like this." Qinglian saw that Ru'er was a little unhappy, so she explained.

Ru'er is also refreshing.

"The slave maid has followed Concubine Ju Niangniang for so long, and there has never been a matter of overstepping the courtesy, Concubine Ju Niangniang treats me like a sister, how can the slave and maid have the idea of greedy for money." Ru'er said.

Qinglian patted Ru'er on the shoulder.

"Sister Hugh is thinking about this, I just need to have a clear conscience."

"That's what my sister said." Ru'er nodded, "I must be my sisters all subordinates, no matter what we do, we can only be regarded as a dog in the eyes of the master." When you're in a good mood, give you something to eat, and when you're in a bad mood, you'll be whipped away. ”

Qinglian hurriedly waved her hand: "If you say something like this, my sister won't say it again in the future." ”
