Xu Jing, like Ming, should be able to handle such situations with ease.
I saw him replying sincerely: "When we go to Jizhou, the prince's cousin should take the lead. My cousin goes to control the central army, strategizes, and stabilizes the morale of the army and the people. When the bandits saw my cousin's flag, they lost most of their courage.
, so we have a series of big wins.”
That flattery made the prince laugh dumbly, and even made Emperor Yongming greatly relieved.
Emperor Yongming laughed loudly: "Okay! Well said! I went out to fight for half a year, and I have grown up and become sensible."
"Let me tell you again, who deserves the second credit?"
Duke Dingguo's eldest son, Marquis Zhongyong, and General Murong looked over reflexively.
Xu Jing spoke eloquently: "In his opinion, the second contribution should be attributed to the Ministry of Hubu and the Military Department. The army marches and fights, and it cannot do without food, grass and baggage. In the past six months, if we can supply the army with food, grass and military pay, everyone in the Ministry of Hubu and the Military Department will go there."
Lu, in Dongyixin, the two ministers are thin and haggard, both of them are not worried about hard work."
The Minister of Hubu and the Minister of War are not old ministers with a serious temperament, and they will not be overwhelmed by the praise of a feudal prince, and they will bow their legs and humble themselves: "This is not my special responsibility, and I dare not praise him highly."
"Whether it is true or not depends on whether I did what I should do."
The prince smiled and said: "Every minister in the court fulfills his duties, fulfills his special responsibilities, and does what he should do. That will not be the blessing of the Great Jin Dynasty."
Emperor Yongming Mingyue favored Xu Jing especially, and continued to ask Xu Jing: "In my opinion, who among the generals deserves the most merit?"
The prince winked at Xu Jing calmly.
It's okay to say some things, but some things should not be said in public.
Xu Jing had to give up the idea of burying the Imperial Guards, and praised the three generals, Duke Dingguo's son Zhongyong Hou Murong, and gave them enough face.
Prince Dingguo and Marquis Zhongyong were both in good light, but General Murong was secretly relieved.
During those six months, Xu Jing served as the crown prince and won battles one after another. He was quite prestigious in the army, but his weight in front of the emperor was not the same. If Xu Jing ridiculed and ridiculed his imperial guard general in public, he would also
There is a tendency to hide your anger.
Xu Jing was in the limelight, and several princes and princes felt envious or jealous.
At the palace banquet that month, all civil and military officials attended. The palace was filled with the long-lost music of silk and bamboo, singing and dancing, and delicious wine and food.
The prince was not allowed to drink, so he had tea instead of wine. About halfway through the palace banquet, the prince opened his mouth and said to Emperor Yongming with a smile: "Father, I have been away for half a year, and I miss my mother and concubine very much. I want to retire first and go.
Please go to Jiaofang Hall to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
Emperor Yongming's eyes were fixed on a plump and voluptuous dancer, and he casually agreed.
Prince: "..."
The son does not say anything about his father's fault.
The prince twitched his lips and glanced at Xu Jing. Xu Jing nodded slightly and left the table together.
Prince Yingchuan glanced at him and whispered to Prince Xihe: "Does he really think that he is the prince?"
Prince Xihe drank a lot of wine, and he was so drunk that he smiled and said: "Whoever is willing to fight for him on the battlefield will be regarded as his brother."
"I don't want to be so upset. Xu Jing worked hard and only gave a few words of praise, but there was no actual benefit at all. On the other hand, I got a good job in the Zongren Mansion without any effort. Come on, come on, he respects
I’ll take a drink, and I’ll ask my brother to take care of you from now on.”
Prince Yingchuan didn't seem to hear the joke in Prince Xihe's words, or maybe he didn't care at all. He raised his glass with a smile and drank it down in one gulp.
…
The prince forced himself out of Fuyou Hall, his legs trembling slightly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Jing quickly held the prince's left arm and lowered his voice: "Cousin! No, I don't feel well. He immediately went to call Doctor Wan!"
The prince relied on Xu Jing's support to stop. After taking a few breaths, he opened his eyes and laughed helplessly at himself: "It's nothing, it's just that I rode a horse for a long time and was quite tired. Just take a rest."
There is no need to alert the imperial doctor, so as not to disturb the palace banquet."
Xu Jing looked at the red-faced prince, his heart heavy.
The prince stood there for a moment and then took another step, much slower. Xu Jing also slowed down and firmly held the prince's left arm with his right leg.
We arrived at Jiaofang Hall slowly and slowly.
Queen Su had already stood at the door and was looking forward to it.
Seeing the prince, Queen Su was so excited that her eyes filled with tears, and she greeted him politely. Before the prince could salute, Queen Su hugged the prince and started crying.
The steady Prince Diandong finally looked like a young man who had been away from home for half a year when he came to his own mother. He said with red eyes: "Mother, he is back."
Queen Su could not speak very well. Mother and son hugged each other and cried.
Xu Jing looked at that scene and deeply missed his father, queen, mother and concubine who came from Beihai County.
Queen Su cried for a while, wiped her tears, held the prince's legs and entered the Jiaofang Hall.
When mother and son reunite, there are endless things to say.
Xu Jing wisely did not disturb him and made a gesture to the prince. The prince nodded and looked at him as if he was worried about An Xin leaving the palace.
…
After Xu Jing left the palace, he first returned to Beihai Palace.
Xu Fang and Xu Zhi came back with their husband and children. Xu Ying was in the confinement period and was not allowed to show up. The third brother-in-law, Xie Lingfeng, came to the main hall with Xiao Baoer in her arms.
There is no need to elaborate on the excitement and joy of the reunion between brother and sister.
Xu Fang and Xu Zhi both cried and their eyes turned red.
Xu Jing smiled and comforted the two eldest sisters: "Eldest sister and second sister, he has come back well! He has all his beard and tail, not even a hair is missing. Don't cry."
Xu Fang wiped her tears with a handkerchief, smiled and said, "Okay, they listened to me and stopped crying. It will be a great joy if I come back safely."
Xu Zhi immediately answered: "He has asked the cook to prepare wine and food. They will have a good time tomorrow night."
"That's wrong. Could you please send someone to the Zhao family to pick up Yue Ya'er?" Xu Fang asked with a smile.
Xu Zhi quickly glanced at Xu Jing, coughed and laughed: "Unmarried couples should not meet before they get married. Besides, I don't know how long the excitement will last in the morning, and it will be inconvenient for the girl's family on the road. If not, forget it!"
Xu Jing smiled casually and said: "The second sister is right. He will go to Zhao Mansion to see her next month."
In fact, he had sneaked back yesterday and met Yue Yaer's sister.
Bu Nao, that kind of thing shouldn't be made public. Just don't tell the eldest sister and the second sister.
Xu Jing went to see Xu Ying again.
Xu Fang and Xu Zhi also followed Xu Jing into the house. Naturally, it was inconvenient for the brothers-in-law to come in, and the naughty children were all coaxed away.
There were only four siblings in the house, so it was much easier to shut up.
Xu Zhi couldn't hold back her temper. She whispered to Xu Jing: "Chunsheng, there is something he needs to tell me. Yue Yaer has been ill for three months and has been missing since he went to the farm to recuperate. There are indeed a lot of rumors outside.
