Xie Yuan went to Nanchu first. When the old protector heard this, he was stunned for a long time.
After a while, he smiled and said: "That boy Chu Rong has become the most blessed one."
Zhen Min later fell in love with him without telling him, and gave birth to a good daughter for him. His good daughter abducted his good grandson, and then abducted Xie Yuan to Nanchu.
Hey, Daliang is so talented.
He asked Su Xingze: "You're not going to Nanchu, are you?"
Su Xingze sighed, "Seventh sister won't let me go."
The old Protector laughed loudly, "That's right. If you leave and the Su family leaves, her relationship with Daliang will be almost severed. Her mother sacrificed her life for Daliang, and she will not be with her.
Daliang is divorced. This is why she cooperates with the prince. She will make the prince believe that even if she inherits the throne of Southern Chu, she will never take action against Daliang."
Su Xingze nodded with a smile. He also understood what Qimei meant. It was most appropriate for him to stay in Daliang. The family business was all in Daliang, and the prince would feel free to use him, and he could also achieve great things. As long as the Su family is here
, no matter how long it takes, no one will think that she will break the relationship with Daliang, and she also has a reason to come back to visit relatives. Normally, she will not dislike her being stared at by him under his nose.
He ate the remaining sweet potatoes and shared them with Zhou Wei, and then walked out of the old Protector's military tent together.
Both of them had eaten too much, so Zhou Wei asked him, "Do you want to inspect the military camp with me?"
Su Xingze naturally agreed.
The two walked around, and Zhou Wei said to him: "Xingze, are you worried about Miss Su Qi?"
Su Xingze nodded and shook his head, "Seventh sister has the ability to turn danger into safety."
Zhou Weidao: "I am still a little worried about my fourth brother, but my grandfather said that I don't have to worry." He smiled and said, "My fourth brother is much stronger than me. I, the eldest brother, seem to have not understood him as well as the prince since he was a child.
."
"We don't get along too much. You've been staying in the army, and he stays in the East Palace most of the time." Su Xingze said.
Zhou Wei nodded, "I only found out after he left Beijing that the fourth brother planned to go to Nanchu and didn't want to come back."
Su Xingze said nothing.
Zhou Weidao: "Although I am in the army, I have also heard many rumors about Miss Su Qi. She and Young Master Ye seem to get along very well. When Young Master Ye left the capital, she even went to see him off, and my fourth brother
She didn't go to leave the capital. My fourth brother has been stubborn since he was a child, and I don't know if he will be able to fulfill his wish."
Su Xingze smiled, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much."
Zhou Gu will naturally get his wish, because his seventh sister is so soft-hearted towards Zhou Gu. This is a treatment that even his elder brother has never enjoyed.
Zhou Wei sighed, "Yes, I should worry about myself. My grandfather has recently felt that I still have a lot to learn."
He was helpless, "If my fourth brother doesn't come back, my pressure will suddenly increase."
He never thought that they would lose this battle. With his grandfather here, they would definitely win. Although he read a lot of books, in the end, most of them were military books. Those who view people based on history and fight in court
, guessing people's hearts, if the fourth brother does not stand in the court in the future and has no one to help him, he will have to learn from it in the future. Alas.
Su Xingze understood what the old protector had taught Zhou Wei along the way, not only in marching and fighting, but also in court matters, starting from ancient times to the present, and conspiracies. When he told him about it, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty,
Take your time, the prince is not your current majesty."
To have a wise king, a good general only needs to know how to march and fight, and does not need to plan in court.
Zhou Wei sighed clearly, "My grandfather taught me. Actually, he didn't want me to become a great person. He was afraid that I wouldn't teach his descendants in the future."
After all, if you want the lintel of the Duke Protector's Mansion to survive, your children and grandchildren must not be too foolish and stubborn.
Su Xingze understood, "That's it. Then the prince will have to work hard in the future."
He thought to himself that Qimei kidnapped Zhou Gu, which was equivalent to poaching the family treasure that the old Duke had painstakingly cultivated to inherit the lineage of the Protector. No wonder, when Seventh Sister went to break off the engagement, the old Protector didn't say anything.
I agreed to withdraw.
He glanced at Zhou Wei again and wanted to laugh. The burden on Prince Zhou's shoulders would indeed be heavy in the future.
Zhou Gu didn't know that his elder brother felt extremely stressed now. He went straight to Changzhou and marched all the way. Even after receiving a letter from Zhang Yun, he didn't dare to stop. He couldn't blame Zhang Yun entirely, what if there were changes?
He must do everything possible.
He nipped all eventualities in the bud, which he learned from the prince in the East Palace, and has been successful so far.
There were two other people who were marching in the same hurry as Zhou Gu. One was Zhou Shen, the second son of the Protector's Mansion, and the other was Zhang Yun who went straight to Longxi County.
Zhou Shen hurriedly hurried, and on this day, he met a large army head-on.
The spy came to report, "General, there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses coming from the front, and they are the military flags of the Nanping Marquis Mansion."
Zhou Shen was stunned, "Did you read that correctly? It's the military flag of the Nanping Marquis Mansion?"
"yes."
Zhou Shen asked again: "Isn't it the military flag of the Northern Hebei Army?"
"no."
Zhou Shen wondered, "Nanping only has 30,000 soldiers and horses, how can it be more than 100,000? Let's explore again."
The spies went immediately.
Zhou Shen was afraid that the Northern Hebei Army was flying the flag of the Nanping Marquis Mansion, and he also wondered whether Nanping was captured by the Northern Hebei Army. But if it was captured, it should be replaced by the flag of the Northern Hebei Army. Since Zhang Ping had already rebelled, he could not commit the crime again at this time.
Hiding it, unless it's to deceive him?
He immediately ordered, "Get ready for battle."
The three armies listened to the order and immediately prepared their formations.
After a while, the spy came back and reported happily, "Back to the general, there are soldiers and horses from Nanping in front of us. The person leading the troops is Miss Su Qi. She is the prince's employee."
Everyone knows that Su Rong cooperates with Donggong and is the prince's guest.
Zhou Shen's eyes lit up, "Really?"
The spy nodded repeatedly.
Zhou Shen breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
He immediately mounted his horse and walked to the front of the team, waiting for the army to arrive. Sure enough, when the army arrived, Fengling took the lead and handed over to Zhou Shen, "I'm Fengling, is Mr. Zhou in front of you?"
Zhou Shen quickly returned the greeting, "That's right, Mr. Feng."
The two met each other and exchanged polite greetings. When the carriage came near, Su Rong opened the curtain and smiled at Zhou Shen: "Thank you for your hard work, Master Zhou. The crisis in Nanping has been resolved. Zhou Gu and Master Zhou have brought 100,000 troops to Changchun."
Zhouzhou, I plan to go to Longxi County with these 150,000 soldiers and horses. The second young master joins me and goes together!"
Zhou Shen wanted to ask, what was going on, how could the crisis in Nanping be resolved? Didn't it mean that Northern Hebei sent 200,000 troops to Nanping to attack the city? And Nanping only had 30,000 troops, and his third brother led
If there were 100,000 soldiers and horses, it was only 130,000. Now those two men took away 100,000 soldiers and horses to Changzhou. Where did these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses come from?
He wondered if it was the conquered Hebei army? But he found it unbelievable.
Fengling knew that he was full of doubts. After the two armies met, he took a short rest and continued on his way, so he asked him to clear up his doubts.
