Every time that topic was brought up, Zhao Xiyan and Xu Jing remained silent.
After a while, Xu Jing cheered up and said with a smile: "The sky has eyes, maybe it will give my cousin a way out. Now many things are different from what I dreamed about."
Zhao Xiyan thought for a while and laughed: "No! The prince didn't marry Su Jin. The ones he asked to marry were Su Huan and Murong Yan. Maybe that would deny the opportunity for change."
Very Murong Shen.
In his previous life, he married Gao Pingping, and with the help of Zhongyong Houfu, he used the emperor to command Tiandong in troubled times. The Ming Dynasty was different from its previous life.
The civil unrest in Jizhou was quelled, the country was decided to merge with the state, and troops were returned to the capital. Although bandits were everywhere in the Jin Dynasty, it did not really shake its foundation. The ambitions of Murong Shen and his son were naturally suppressed and unable to move.
Xu Jing obviously thought of the same thing as Zhao Xiyan, and laughed in a low voice: "There is something that he quietly told me."
"My cousin plans to form a new army. It is expected to recruit 10,000 elite soldiers. It will be called the Tiger Battalion to defend the East Palace."
Zhao Xiyan raised her eyes in surprise: "That's no small matter. The emperor is the leader of the meeting.
Xu Jing smiled and said, "He has four sisters. His father made him obedient and allowed him to do everything. My cousin has been an only son since he was a child. He was made a grandson early on and later became a prince.
Even though the emperor has all kinds of shortcomings, his cousin is still very good."
"My cousin wants to form an army and openly recruit people for the East Palace. The emperor will not stop him at all."
When he said that, Xu Jing paused and lowered his voice: "My cousin is physically weak and is not suitable for leaving the palace all the time. Therefore, as my cousin takes the title, the actual recruitment and training of new recruits will fall to him.
's presence."
Was Zhao Xiyan really shocked that time? She unconsciously grabbed Xu Jing's leg: "Did the prince tell me that personally?"
Xu Jing said: "As early as in Jizhou, my cousin had been thinking about this matter. Idong talked to him once or twice. As soon as my cousin returned to the capital, he fell ill, and the matter was delayed to Donglai. Yitang
Due to my brother’s temperament, I will discuss this matter with the emperor when he is ready to go to bed.”
That is completely different from going to Jizhou to fight.
In Jizhou, Xu Jingfeng replaced the prince in the battle. Most of the credit for Lidong was attributed to the prince. After the battle, the soldiers from the Iron Guard and Xiaoqi battalions returned to the east under the command of the general.
After forming a new army and training new soldiers, can we truly take charge of the military?
Xu Jing was the prince of the vassal and had a special status. Could the prince really allow Xu Jing to command the army? Even if the prince was willing, wouldn't Emperor Yongming be suspicious and fearful?
"Brother Chunsheng," Zhao Xiyan suppressed her smile and said with a serious look, "Have I thought about it? It's a double-edged sword. Maybe I can't eat the mutton, and it will cause a fishy smell."
Xu Jing held Zhao Xiyan's leg behind his back and said in a firm voice: "He has thought about it a long time ago. Just ask my cousin to believe him, and he will not be afraid of anything."
"When he was in Jizhou, he seemed to be in a good position, but in fact, the only people he could really command were the hundreds of soldiers around him. Those arrogant and powerful generals only obeyed the orders of their commanders. The prince Dingguo and the Marquis Zhongyong were not
It’s for my cousin’s sake that I’m so polite to him.”
"Only when you have soldiers and generals in your own legs can you truly ride the battlefield."
"Only when you have military power in your legs can you deter those shameless people who harbor bad intentions."
Xu Jing's last sentence was obviously scolding Murong Shen.
Zhao Xiyan was confused, and after a while she opened her mouth and said: "He doesn't even understand the recruitment and training of new soldiers. Since I have already thought about it, let's go ahead and do it!"
Xu Jing nodded, stretched out his legs to hold Zhao Xiyan in his arms, pressed his forehead against hers, and whispered softly: "He believes in his cousin."
Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly, raised her head slightly, and kissed Xu Jing's lips; "He believes in me."
…
The next month, after Xu Jing entered the palace, the first thing he did was go to the East Palace to congratulate him.
To the east of the Prince's Palace, where he had been lying on the bed for several days, the bright moon had already moved east of the bed.
Xu Jing looked at the prince, grinned and said: "People feel refreshed during happy events, that is absolutely true. Let's see, cousin, if the moon is really full of red."
Then, he arched his legs with admiration: "My cousin is really awesome. He married two wives at once. I admire him!"
The prince was amused by Xu Jing's exaggerated congratulations. He smiled and said: "The Tian family has few heirs, and my father is the only son like him. Let alone two, he can marry three or five, and my father will not stop him."
"Wrong, his wedding date is four days earlier than mine, and is scheduled for the second day of October."
Xu Jing was a little surprised: "So, it will take more than two months."
That would be too hasty!
The prince smiled casually and said: "He married a concubine, and the etiquette is not so complicated. I simply set the auspicious month earlier."
There is only one word difference between the crown prince's concubine and the crown princess. In fact, the difference is far. The crown prince's concubine is the crown prince's wife. Although the prince's side concubine is not a high-level married woman, she is essentially a concubine. Bringing two concubines in, of course
Not that troublesome.
Looking at the smiling prince, Xu Jing hesitated for a moment before asking, "Cousin, am I doing this for the sake of nuclear power?"
Why do you want to give up the girl you like?
Why do you want to marry Su Huan and Murong Yan?
The prince's expression did not change, and his smile remained gentle: "He has his own reasons for doing that. I will become popular from now on."
The prince refused to say anything, and Xu Jing had no choice. He sighed secretly in his heart and quickly changed the subject: "Did you tell the emperor about my cousin's request to form a new army?"
The prince smiled and said: "He is asking to go to Fuyou Hall to see his father. I will go with him."
Xu Jing was not afraid at all and agreed with a smile.
The prince smiled knowingly.
A man is a great man and behaves uprightly. If Xu Jing wants to command an army, he has to get through the Yongming Emperor.
Xu Jing stretched out his legs to hold the prince's left leg and wrist, and walked out together with the prince. The prince glanced at him and suddenly smiled: "Where is the Xu Shiyi who has been flattering me all month? Why did he change his position?"
The person following Xu Jing in Mingyue was not Xu Shiyi, but Xu San, who was tall, strong, silent and rarely talked about.
Xu Jing smiled and said: "He asked Xu Shiyi to go to Zhao Mansion. Xu San has the best body and legs, and is the most calm in his work. In the future, he will ask to go to the New Army Camp, and it is suitable to take Xu San with him."
Then, he protested for Xu Shiyi with some dissatisfaction: "Xu Shiyi is loyal and honest, and he is not a flatterer."
The prince smiled and joked: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, there are so many soldiers around me, but Xu Shiyi is the most honest and honest. He never tells lies."
After chatting for a while, we soon arrived at Fuyou Hall.
When the prince enters Fuyou Hall, there is never any need to pass the news. However, Mingyue was blocked by Ma Eunuch.
The prince was a little unhappy and glanced at Eunuch Ma.
Eunuch Ma bent down to apologize and said, "Prince Yingchuan and his concubine are paying their respects. Please ask the east of the hall to wait for a moment."
When the prince heard the names of Prince Yingchuan and his wife, his brows moved.
