The sharp words were like whips, lashing out one after another.
Eunuch Yang's face turned red, and he raised his eyes to look at the furious Feng Shaojun: "San'er, we can understand your anger and unwillingness. But you are too arbitrary when you say this to the emperor."
"You only saw the disadvantage of going to the frontier army, but you never thought about the emperor's painstaking efforts."
"The emperor has long wanted to weaken the power of the Yuan family. He sent General Meng first, and then Shen You. It is reasonable and the ministers will not be suspicious. This is to use Shen You. Do you want to see Shen You be killed? Are you sent out of Beijing at will and become the laughing stock of everyone?"
Without waiting for Feng Shaojun to respond, Eunuch Yang continued quickly: "Also, the emperor has also considered everything you have thought of. He ordered Shen You to pick fifty personal guards of the emperor to accompany him. These people were all from the general family and had extraordinary skills. , the lowest one is one hundred households of Jinyiwei. Once in the border army, he can quickly serve as a general."
"The emperor is setting up a team for Shen You. Why is it an exile? Why is it insignificant? This is the best arrangement. Let Shen You show his talents and become an unparalleled general in Daqi! This is Shen You's true want."
"We won't tell the emperor about your angry words just now. You should think about it carefully yourself."
Eunuch Yang is well-known for his smiling face. He is usually very kind and cheerful and cheerful to everyone he meets. He has never been so angry as now, with his face turning red.
Feng Shaojun was full of evil spirits and was not able to get rid of it so easily. He said coldly: "It's just that our positions are different. You only think about the emperor. I only feel sorry for my husband. He was abandoned since he was born and has never known his own destiny for more than twenty years." The biological father is still alive. Now that his identity may be exposed, he will be given up again without hesitation."
Eunuch Yang: "..."
Eunuch Yang was speechless.
Everyone understands the truth. But whoever this knife cuts hurts.
Emperor Qing'an really felt sorry for Shen You.
Feng Shaojun's eyes were as cold as ice: "I know the purpose of my adoptive father's visit. Shen You will go to the border and will definitely beg the emperor to allow him to take his wife and children with him."
"The Emperor is afraid that I will be angry and unjust, so he specially asked my adoptive father to comfort me."
"I, Feng Shaojun, am not a person who is attached to power. I surrendered to King Yan that day to avenge my father. In the past few years, I have made a lot of achievements. The emperor has not treated me badly and has given me trust and power. Now, Shen You is leaving, and it’s time for me to leave too.”
"I will hand everything back to my adoptive father now and leave the palace tonight."
Eunuch Yang felt his brain pounding and smiled bitterly. He deliberately slowed down his voice and said, "San'er, I know you are unhappy. It's useless to say anything at this point. Shen You is leaving Beijing, you go with him. No matter what, the husband and wife are together."
"The Emperor will never forget the merits you have made. He will always give you an explanation. The Emperor ordered me to ask you if you have any unfulfilled wishes. As long as you open your mouth, the Emperor will definitely grant it."
After a pause, he reminded in a low voice: "San'er, you are a smart man. Don't get angry at this time. If you have any requests, just ask."
Thunder, rain, and dew are all your grace.
The whole world belongs to Emperor Qing'an. It is absolutely impossible to turn against the emperor. In the future, Shen You will have to work as a errand in the border army, and he will need the support of the imperial court!
Feng Shaojun slowly exhaled: "Please ask my adoptive father to report back to the emperor on my behalf. In five years, I want to see Prince Fu fall."
Five years was enough time for Emperor Qing'an to sit firmly on the throne and free up his hands to take care of Prince Fu.
Eunuch Yang nodded: "Okay, I will accept it on behalf of the emperor."
"San'er, before you leave the palace, do you want to say goodbye to the emperor? After all, the relationship between the king and his ministers..."
"No need." Feng Shaojun said expressionlessly: "I changed my appearance and disguised myself to enter the palace. I will never see the light of day. How can I be regarded as a minister? I would like to express my respect to my adoptive father and hope that we can meet again one day."
Eunuch Yang's nose suddenly felt sore, and the corners of his eyes were moist.
Feng Shaojun said no more, stood up, opened the door and walked out.
…
At this time, Shen You was surrounded by a group of emperor's personal guards.
The news that Shen You would be sent to the border army quickly spread among the emperor's personal guards. The emperor's personal guards were shocked and surprised, and quickly considered the pros and cons.
The advantages and disadvantages of working in the border army are obvious.
The advantage is that once you go there, you will be able to lead troops, train and fight to kill the enemy. The frontier army is the hardest and most dangerous, but it is also the easiest place to make military achievements. A man should gallop on the battlefield and make achievements, so that his life will not be wasted.
The disadvantage is that the border crossing is too painful and dangerous. Many people had followed Shen You to the border army and climbed the city wall before, and some stayed there forever.
If I go back this time, I won't be able to come back in a few months. I have to stay at the border for a long time... This is a bit difficult. If nothing else, it will be difficult to see my wife and children in the future.
Until Shen You announced the emperor's decree: "The emperor is particularly gracious. Anyone who is willing to go to the border army this time can bring his family members with him."
Everyone was overjoyed to hear it.
What is there to hesitate about? Hurry up and sign up, there are only fifty places, so there is so much!
Shen Jia squeezed tightly around Shen You and shouted loudly: "I'll sign up, I'll be the first."
Fang Peng shouted without saying anything: "I'll sign up too, I'll be second in line."
The other guards also shouted: "Count me in."
"Don't forget to take me with you."
Shen You was a little helpless: "How can I record the list in such a mess? You should line up first and come one by one. Also, everyone can go home tonight and have a good discussion with their families. If you are sure to go, then come to me .”
Shen Jia nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right, if you can't convince your wife at home, please leave quickly and make room for others."
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter and curses.
After working for an hour, Shen You recorded more than a hundred names on the list in his hand.
Among these people, eliminate some whose family members are not willing to do so, and some who cannot bear the hardship. Selecting fifty is more than enough.
Shen You calmed down and went back to the house to clean up. In fact, there wasn't much to clean up. He took off his duties as commander of the Jin Yiwei and had to keep the soft armor on his body. He changed back into his own clothes and left.
Shen Jia looked on and murmured in a low voice: "Why are you suddenly sent to serve as a border army officer? This is too sudden. There was no news at all before."
Shen You didn't look back, and said while packing his clothes: "General Yuan and his son entered the palace to make a speech to the emperor."
"The border is bitterly cold, and military training is also a hard job. Moreover, if the emperor wants to weaken the Yuan family's power in the border army, of course he must send someone trustworthy. The emperor thought about it a lot and chose me. I have been in the capital for so many years. , Being on duty in the palace all day long, although safe and wealthy, is boring. I would rather go to the border to lead troops."
Having said this, Shen You turned around and said, "Third brother, you'd better not go, stay in the capital!"
