Xue Chen smiled: "Your Highness and Brother Chen, can you take me with you then?"

Wei Wu said to Chen Qi: "Just now I just talked about me, and I forgot to tell you and Miss Ding his true identity." ”

Xue Chen said with a smile: "I am His Highness's guard, now and in the future, so please bring me with Your Highness when you fight the sword rivers and lakes." ”

Wei Wu said to Xue Chen: "You are the guardian of my Great Wei, it is too big to be my own guard. After speaking, he turned to Chen Qi again, "Xue Chen is the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan in my contemporary Wei Dynasty, born in Jiangmen, familiar with the art of war since childhood, went out with his father at the age of 16, took command at the age of 20 to pacify the Sichuan and Shu Rebellion, and was awarded the title of General of Huben Zhonglang the following year, and at the age of 25, he worshiped the general of Xiaocai. ”

After hearing this, Ding Muxi looked at Xue Chen and exclaimed, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful!"

Xue Chen said with a smile: "Miss Ding has won the award, and her martial arts are not worth mentioning compared to Miss Ding and Brother Chen. ”

Ding Muxi smiled: "We have our own strengths, but in general, you are stronger than us." ”

Chen Qi also said: "Brother Xue has such a ability, if he fights with us, it will indeed be a huge loss for the imperial court." ”

Xue Chen said: "The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooked, the high birds are exhausted, the good bow is hidden, the enemy country is broken, and the ministers are dead." Our Great Wei has not had any major wars in recent years, such as me, these generals have been neglected for many years, if it weren't for the emperor's treatment of my Xue family, it would have been a chaotic situation in the imperial court, and I would have resigned and gone into hiding. ”

Chen Qi said: "Brother Xue's quote of the ancient saying, although there is a certain truth, but not all kings will treat their subordinates like this, don't be chilled by this, the three armies are easy to get and hard to find, like Brother Xue, born in a general's family, and has such a talent in military affairs, you really shouldn't be discouraged because of a moment of discouragement." ”

Xue Chen said: "Brother Chen is right, but you are not in it, watching the country you sacrificed your life to defend being ruined by a ** villain, looking at those loyal ministers and good generals, being suppressed, banished, depressed, I believe you will also have the same mood as me." ”

Chen Qi said: "I have a question, since the emperor is on the throne, they are so reckless, can the emperor tolerate it?"

Ji Xuan said: "My father was seriously injured by my imperial uncle, leaving a hidden disease that could not be cured, and he would have attacks from time to time, and he would be in a coma for a long time every time he had an attack. ”

"My father had a total of nine sons, but for various reasons, only me and the second emperor brother remained. I have been away from the court since I was a child, and I am no longer suitable to be the heir to the throne in my father's heart, and I have also expressed to him the idea of not returning to Beijing, so only my second brother is the most suitable successor to the throne. ”

"Because the second emperor brother has been in control of the government for a long time, it is difficult for the father to know the real situation in the outside world in the end. The reason why my father asked General Xue to take me back to Beijing this time was because General Xue explained to my father the crisis of the entire court situation in an unexpected time when he was alone with his father. Although my father had also received some real voices before, he didn't expect that things had reached such a critical situation, so he decided to let me go back to Beijing immediately. ”

Ding Muxi said: "Your second brother is really incomprehensible, knowing that sooner or later this country is your own, and you still waste it like this." ”

Ji Xuan said: "My father can't figure it out, and he has talked to him, but he just promised that it will change in the future." My father, the Emperor, said that as long as he changes, the throne will remain his. ”

Xue Chen said: "All the people who care about Great Wei are looking forward to him changing. ”

Ji Xuan said: "We'll wait and see, but the important thing now is to do a good job in disaster relief." ”

Xue Chen said: "Since Brother Guo has returned, and Brother Chen and Miss Ding have also arrived, tomorrow I will personally go to Luoyan Mountain, kill those mountain bandits, and take back the robbed grain." ”

Chen Qi asked, "The food for disaster relief has been robbed?"

Xue Chen said: "The relief grain sent to Chi County the day before yesterday was robbed by mountain robbers when passing through Luoyan Mountain, and the officers and soldiers sent there yesterday failed to capture it. Today I wanted to go in person, but I was worried about the safety of His Royal Highness, so I didn't dare to move, now that you have arrived, I have no worries, and I will go to Luoyan Mountain tomorrow. ”

"Leading troops to fight? This is very fun, can you bring me and Brother Qi?" Ding Muxi asked Xue Chen with a smile.

"I want you to stay and protect Your Highness......"

Ji Xuan said: "Just let them follow you, the mountains there are dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, besides, fighting with mountain bandits can't just be regarded as ordinary military operations, with Brother Chen and Miss Ding, it will be easier." You don't have to worry about me here, there is Senior Brother and Master Guo here, and the forbidden army brought, I think in this Yuezhou City, no one dares to do it. ”

Ding Muxi said: "Yes, yes, the guards here are so strict, no one dares to come, as long as he doesn't run around." ”

Xue Chen said: "Your Highness is here for disaster relief, how can you always stay in the post house." ”

Ji Xuan said: "Tomorrow I will hold a disaster relief meeting in the Yuezhou Mansion, and all the principal officials of the prefectures and counties under Yuezhou will attend, and I will listen to their views on disaster relief." Autumn planting is urgent, and these local officials know the best about the situation below, and they know very well what to do. ”

Chen Qi said: "Most of these officials were rich in their own pockets in the last disaster relief, so they caused today's situation, can they still believe it now?"

Ji Xuan said: "You also said that it is the majority, which shows that there are still some officials who are not involved, and the opinions of this part of the officials are particularly important, and those corrupt officials, in fact, the situation of each of them is different, some are corrupt and hopeless." And some are forced or first-time participants, these people have not gone far on the wrong path, and they can be redeemed. Now is the time for the imperial court to employ people, and it is impossible for me to kill all these officials who have made mistakes, and we must screen them. ”

Chen Qi said: "So tomorrow, you will take some corrupt officials to deter other officials, so that they will not dare to have evil thoughts anymore." ”

Ji Xuan said: "People's desires are endless, for greed, some people can control it, some people can't, so no one dares to guarantee that after I shock them tomorrow, everyone will no longer have evil thoughts." From ancient times to the present, corrupt officials have never disappeared, and what we can do is to minimize the number of such officials, instead of the prevailing corruption as it is now. ”

Ding Muxi said: "I suddenly want to stay and watch you rectify those corrupt officials." ”

Ji Xuan said: "There will be a chance in the future, our next stop is Qingzhou, where you can see, tomorrow you will go with General Xue to suppress the mountain bandits, with you and Brother Chen, things will be done faster, and we can also go to Qingzhou as soon as possible." ”

Ding Muxi said: "Okay." ”

Chen Qi said: "I think we should act separately and go to three states to carry out disaster relief at the same time. ”

Ji Xuan said: "I have already sent people over to the other two states and counties, but I am still a little worried, because these people were arranged for me by my second emperor brother." ”

Chen Qi said: "How can you let him arrange someone for you?"

Wei Wudao: "I returned to the capital, my father found the royal family, restored my identity, and named me the king of Qi, let me participate in the court politics, I briefly described the disaster situation in the three states above the court, and asked for disaster relief again, my father was gracious, and gave me full authority to deal with it, and gave Shang Fang a sword, which can be done cheaply." ”

Ding Muxi said: "Is this like the emperor coming in person." ”

Ji Xuan nodded and smiled: "Exactly." My second brother wanted to arrange this disaster relief errand as his own, but my father vetoed it on the spot, saying that I needed to be trained, and this was an opportunity. He couldn't fight, so he arranged for some of his own people to give me. ”

Chen Qi said: "I'm afraid these people won't really assist you." ”

Ji Xuan said: "It doesn't matter if they are really sincere or not, as long as they don't make trouble, otherwise they won't be able to go back to the capital." ”

Xue Chen said: "Such people are all his henchmen, it is better to clean them up as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble in the future." ”

Ji Xuan smiled, "I just said that as long as they make any changes, they will not be spared." Okay, let's all go and rest first, there is still a lot to do tomorrow. ”

The group nodded, and then went their separate ways.
