The king of Yue was imprisoned, and the court was noisy for several days. King An was very worried, but the emperor remained silent.
A few days later, a battle report came from the Jiangyang camp, and there was a conflict with Nanchu, and the war was about to break out.
The two countries have not been at war for many years, and this news was like an earthquake, causing an uproar in the DPRK and China.
Two years ago, the Northwestern Army returned victoriously to the court, which aroused the ambitions that had been forgotten for many years in the court. Many people thought of Taizu's legacy and secretly said that if even the fierce Hu people were dealt with, then Southern Chu...
But fighting a war is not easy after all. Tang Jing, the Grand Duke of Southern Chu, was also a famous general of the generation. Everyone just turned this idea around in their hearts and swallowed it down.
I never expected that only two years later, I would actually have a conflict with Nanchu. When I think about Tang Jing's death, I can't help but make people want to take action.
Military generals asked for help one after another - in the battle in the northwest two years ago, all the credit fell on the Zong family. If we don't seize the opportunity this time, how long will we wait?
Moreover, I heard that Southern Chu was in civil strife and the command was unclear. This was an obvious opportunity to gain military glory.
As a result, the court was noisy again over who to send, and even several generals were about to fall out.
Amidst the commotion, the emperor finally issued an imperial edict.
The post of commander-in-chief was given to King An, and several generals were assigned important positions.
Everyone is happy with this result.
King An is about to become the crown prince, so why not be dissatisfied with working under him? Take this opportunity to build relationships quickly.
Although the great credit goes to King An, can the Holy One not know who the real military merit belongs to?
Subsequently, the decree to deal with the king of Yue was also issued.
He was ordered to go on an expedition with King An, and his merits would be reduced to his crimes.
Everyone is still very satisfied with this result.
The King of Yue had made great achievements in the northwest, so it was appropriate for him to go to war.
Your Majesty let me off lightly, and indeed you are still the merciful Lord!
…
Mingwei went to visit Jiang Wenfeng.
He is at home on leave.
It is extremely important to get Mr. Jiang, the crazy case judge, to put down his official duties.
——After being a widower for fifteen years, he finally renewed his marriage.
The young lady I married is the daughter of a minor official and will be fifteen years old.
The age gap is as big as twenty years, and they are a typical old married couple.
Fortunately, Mr. Jiang has a tender face and does not look old.
Mingwei waited in the hall for a while and saw Jiang Wenfeng and his newlywed wife coming together, looking high-spirited and high-spirited, as if they were several years younger.
She teased: "Mr. Jiang is really in high spirits during happy events. If you don't know, you might think you have turned back time."
Jiang Wenfeng smiled and bowed to her, and called his wife to greet her.
"This is Ah Yuan. We can be where we are today thanks to Miss Ming's help."
His new wife Luo Yuan is the reincarnation of Qian Niang.
Ming returned the gift with a smile.
Half of Qian Niang's soul had accompanied Jiang Wenfeng for ten years before returning to his reincarnated body. She had relevant memories, but they were vague and not clear.
"So Miss Ming looks like this. In the past few years, I always remember a girl who helped me, but I can't remember her face."
Luo Yuan's soul was incomplete and she was in a daze until she was ten years old. It wasn't until Mingwei sent her soul back that she regained her sanity.
Mingwei asked about her condition and checked her pulse.
Jiang Wenfeng asked nervously: "How is it?"
Mingwei said: "There is nothing better than a strong vitality in the body. Congratulations to Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, you are finally reunited."
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang looked at each other, smiled, and saluted her.
On the day they said goodbye, they never thought they would meet again in this way.
Mingwei joked: "Master Jiang, don't be too desperate in the future. You are much older than Madam. If you don't take good care of yourself, in a few years people will treat you as father and daughter."
Jiang Wenfeng smiled and said: "So I took a leave of absence and rested at home!"
Then he asked her: "Your Highness is going to go on an expedition with King An. Can Miss Ming accompany you?"
Mingwei said: "Don't say we are not married yet, even if we are really married, it is not easy to follow the army."
"That's true." Jiang Wenfeng, whose beloved wife was by his side, couldn't help but feel a little more sympathetic, "Your Highness can't live without Miss Ming, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Mingwei blinked at him: "I only said I couldn't join the army, I didn't say I couldn't go to the south!"
Jiang Wenfeng was stunned for a moment: "Miss Ming..."
"There is something evil about this matter." Mingwei said, "There may be a Xuanshi involved in it. I won't worry if I don't go."
Although Jiang Wenfeng took leave of absence, he had been to Yubaozhai several times and knew the inside story.
"What the girl is saying is that Tang Shao's behavior is so unreasonable that it makes people suspicious that there is something behind it."
The Jiang Mansion was not particularly safe, so the two of them briefly talked for a few words, then stopped mentioning it.
Mingwei prescribed a prescription to regulate Luo Yuan's yin and yang, and then left.
Later, she went to Xuandu to see Xuan Fei.
Xuanfei was not surprised at all: "What do you want me to do again?"
Mingwei said angrily: "Master Imperial Master is really cruel and ruthless. I haven't seen you for a year, why can't I come and see you?"
"Haha," Xuan Fei smiled, "Thank you!"
After all these years, does he still have illusions about this woman? What kind of character does she have that other people don’t know?
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. If it's okay, I'm going back to do some repairs!"
"Hey!" Mingwei stopped him, "Master, are you interested in going to Jiangyang?"
Xuan Fei frowned: "You want me to follow the army?"
"yes!"
Xuanfei shook his head: "Since I am in the position of national master, it is my duty to protect the capital."
Mingwei said: "There are many experts in Xuandu Temple, and you are not missing one."
Xuanfei asked her: "What's the mystery? Be honest."
"If it's not a big deal, can I ask you to leave the capital?" Mingwei told what happened in Nanchu, "...Mingxiao wanted to trick you into becoming a Qinglong Star Officer. Do you want to find out who Xing Gong is?
What?"
Of course Xuanfei thought. This star palace is mysterious and abnormal, and has deep entanglements with the previous royal family.
"So, come with me!" Mingwei encouraged, "They want to control your life, so they can't let it go so easily, right?"
Xuan Fei was very conflicted. Strictly speaking, Xing Gong did not hurt him. And since he knew his own life experience, he would have some empathy for people or things related to his previous dynasty.
"They are not good people." Mingwei said, "Look at the way they dealt with Tang Shao in Yidu, they were exactly the same as they used to deal with you. They want you to regain the former dynasty, not by making a good deal, but by putting you in trouble and forcing you to
You join their camp. By acting like this, you are treating others as playthings. Don’t feel sympathy, think about how they identified the Emperor of Southern Chu as the Qinglong Star Official, which may have had the same relationship with the previous dynasty."
Xuan Fei was moved, so he said: "The Holy One will not allow me to leave the capital..."
"What's the point?" Mingwei had already thought of a reason for him, "Isn't King An going on an expedition? Go and ask for an order to protect him."
"..." Xuan Fei said coldly, "Am I protecting him, or His Royal Highness the King of Yue?" (To be continued)
