Chapter 196: It's the Xuanzhen Dao Leader again
Xie Li was suddenly stunned, turned around blankly, and looked at Shen Ji who was standing in the crowd from afar.
Shen Ji naturally heard Xiao Bing's words clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he pursed his thin lips.
The stakes were very high, and the officials beside them no longer shied away from anything, and hurriedly gathered together to discuss the matter.
"Isn't the Northwest trading with us? Why did you suddenly raise troops to attack? ”
"It has not been half a year since the two countries negotiated peace, how dare they!"
"Luan County has been lost so quickly, it's obvious that they have been prepared for a long time!"
The officials chattered endlessly, and the voice came into Xie Li's ears, making his already blue face a little darker.
In the Jinluan Palace, the atmosphere was very depressing, and the emperor sat on the throne, his face was like earth.
"It's a good northwest, I think Dayan can't be bullied!" The emperor slapped the table and stood up, his eyes sharp, like a cold pool.
The hundred officials below didn't dare to breathe, and only blindly persuaded the emperor to calm his anger.
The emperor's eyebrows furrowed, and he raised his voice to call, "Song Aiqing." ”
Seinfeld stepped sideways and stood in the center of the main hall, "The minister is here." ”
"The Northwest barbarians ignore the peace treaty, betray their promises, and take away my mountains and rivers, Song Aiqing is brave and brave, are you willing to lead the army to fight with that rat?"
The emperor's low and hoarse voice came from above his head, Seinfeld's face did not change, he clenched the wat board in his hand, and his voice was strong and powerful, "The king's life is strengthened, and the ministers should do their best to defend the northern border and recapture the city and county!" ”
The Emperor stood with his hands in his hands, his gaze fell on the top of Seinfeld's head, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, and he said in a deep voice, "Good! Song Aiqing is dedicated to the country, I am very pleased, and the special secretary is the main general, leading 50,000 troops, and going north with General Song Xiao. ”
"When Aiqing's class teacher returns to the court, I will personally pick up the wind and wash the dust for you!"
Seinfeld bent down and said in a deferential tone, "Thank you, Lord Long." ”
Hearing his father-in-law's words, Xie Li only felt that his heart was beating fast all of a sudden, as if something had deviated from his expectations.
Everything happened so fast, so fast that it was abnormal, he didn't even have time to react, and the heavy responsibility of resisting the enemy fell on the head of Yuezhang.
Xie Li just wanted to make a move, but he caught a glimpse of Shen Ji beside him, turned his face sideways, and looked back, but saw Shen Ji's thin lips pursed and shook his head towards him.
The foot that wanted to step out just stopped, Xie Li's face was a little pale, his heart was beating like thunder, and he stared straight at Shen Ji.
After getting off the morning court, Xie Li looked for the tall figure and raised his feet to chase after him.
"Master Yue."
Hearing the voice of his own good son-in-law, Song Fei turned sideways slightly, and when he saw that it was really Xie Li, he immediately raised a smile, "Virtuous son-in-law." ”
Xie Li followed his footsteps, the corners of his mouth tightened, and he said in a deep voice, "The northwest is making a comeback, the reason is unknown, isn't it too hasty for Lord Yuezhang to lead the troops out so easily?" ”
Seinfeld paused, then laughed, his palm fell on his shoulder, and patted him gently, "Virtuous son-in-law, I know you are worried, but the king's fate is difficult to disobey, since I am the general of a country, I must be able to take this burden." ”
Xie Li gritted his teeth, still insisting on his thoughts, "But it happened suddenly, the cause and effect are still unknown, if something really happens to Lord Yue......"
"Virtuous son-in-law." Seinfeld suddenly straightened his face, put his big hand around his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Fighting for the country, I will die without regrets." ”
"Our Song family is a military general, and we have assisted five emperors, and we have never had two hearts, and it is the mission of the Song family to keep this country."
Seinfeld raised his head, looked into the distance, and said slowly, "Every time I go on an expedition, I can't rest assured that Jiaojiao is the most important, and now that she is married to a wife, I have no worries about you by her side." ”
Looking at Xie Li's worried eyes, Seinfeld couldn't help but laugh a little, and comforted in a deep voice, "Don't worry about this, your father-in-law and I have been generals for many years, and we haven't been defeated." ”
"Those barbarians have always been my defeated men, and I haven't taken them seriously!"
Xie Li's eyes were slightly dark, and he was silent, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
As the afterglow faded, the four of them returned to the Dongcheng Courtyard and sat together, with a low stove in the middle, with warm tea and wisps of heat on it.
"Weird from the northwest." Yuan Chen played with the tea cup in his hand, and his tone was light, "The incident happened suddenly, and even I didn't react." ”
"Why didn't the boss investigate, but directly sent General Song to fight back?" Lu Qingfeng held his chin, puzzled, "There were wars in the past, and the emperor didn't do this!" ”
Shen Ji sat on the stone bench, his eyebrows were sparse, his eyes were fixed on Xie Li opposite, and seeing that he had been silent, he opened his mouth first, "Xie Li, do you also think that something is wrong with this matter?" ”
Xie Li bowed slightly, frowning slightly, "The northwest is short of materials, and the two countries are negotiating peace and trade, and they have taken a big advantage, I don't think he will be bored and send troops to Dayan." ”
When Shen Ji heard this, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he said softly, "Could it be the eldest prince?" ”
"Brother Emperor?" Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows, looking dazed, "How could Lord Shen think of him?" ”
"It's just a guess, my thoughts are the same as Xie Li's." Shen Ji shook his head slowly, his thin lips lightly opened, "The northwest will not send troops for no reason, they have already tasted the sweetness of trade, if they send troops to attack Dayan again, I am afraid that the people will not recognize it." ”
Lu Qingfeng thought of something, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly spoke, "Could it be that the eldest prince has made sufficient preparations, but because there is General Song in the capital, he is designed to take him away?" ”
Xie Li's mind was a little confused, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, "What about Luan County?" Is it in the hands of the Northwest or ......?"
"No one can say for sure right now." Yuan Chen lowered his face, clasped his hands on his shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Lord Shen, let's investigate this matter thoroughly, if it is really the eldest brother...... In any case, General Song cannot be allowed to leave Beijing! ”
Shen Ji nodded, his voice warm, "Yes." ”
The night shrouded the capital, and an inconspicuous carriage drove leisurely to Yongcheng Houfu.
"Madam, we're at the Waiting House." Dan Yun lifted the curtain, and because it was night, she deliberately lowered her voice.
Fang Xu woke up slowly, and with a soft hum, he woke up Miao Xuan on his side, "Mother-in-law, get up." ”
"Arrived?" Miao Xuan moved, sat up with his arms propped up, and said in a dumb voice, "What about Miss Fang?" ”
Fang Xu stepped on the footstool and got out of the car, and said softly, "It's here, my sister's house is close, Xu got out of the car first." ”
Miao Xuan answered, followed behind her, and let Danyun help her down.
"Mother?"
A voice came from behind him, Fang Xu paused, looked back sideways, and saw Xie Li's handsome face, and the long sail holding the lamp on his side.
Fang Xu looked at the sky and asked softly, "What time is this, why did you come back so late?" ”
"Stuck in a few things." Xie Li chuckled, his eyes fell on Miaoxuan on the side, and he was slightly stunned, "This is ......"
"The Xiangshi brought back from Qingling." Fang Xu hooked his lips and introduced softly, "Granny Miao Xuan, she is under the famous Xuanzhen Dao Master. ”
Xie Li's eyes widened, and he couldn't hide his surprise, "It's Xuanzhen Dao Master again!" ”
