Cao Yukun, who suffered the emperor's thunderous wrath, was escorted back to the mansion by the imperial guards, and because of his current situation, he was imprisoned in the mansion.
In addition, there was a big commotion in the house because of Han Surong's miscarriage. Under this double blow, he fell ill.
But when the people in the mansion went to the Huichun Hall to invite Gu Muyun, they found out that the ancient miracle doctor had already left the capital, and the imperial hospital sent him only a young imperial doctor to treat him. The treatment was immediate.
And Han Shangshu knew better and took Han Surong back to the Han Mansion directly. He wanted to distance himself from this relationship with him so as not to be implicated.
The eldest mistress of the Cao family also immediately ran back to her parents' house, thinking of ways and countermeasures. It would be good if she could save Cao Jiliang.
Lin Haoxuan had already reported to the Ministry of War that he wanted to go out for military training and received permission.
Lin Haoxuan had just walked out of the Yamen of the Ministry of War and was about to get on his horse when he saw a dejected Cao Jiliang also walking out of the Yamen.
"General Cao!" Lin Haoxuan took the initiative to greet him.
When Cao Jiliang saw that it was him, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face: "It turns out to be the Young Marquis of Yanyang."
"What's wrong?" Lin Haoxuan asked deliberately showing concern.
Cao Jiliang glanced at him again and shook his head slightly: "Young Master, are you making fun of me?"
Lin Hao
Cao Jiliang also felt that he was too sensitive. Too many things happened during this period, which made him unable to do what he wanted. Moreover, he still had a slight concern about Lin Haoxuan, mainly related to the Zhennan Army.
"It's better to meet by chance than to meet. It's rare for me, the general, to return to the city. Let's go have a drink together. Du Ziheng has already booked a seat in Qingfeng Tower anyway, so you don't need to treat us." Lin Haoxuan joked with him easily.
Cao Jiliang's mind was not slow, and he immediately agreed and got on his horse and walked with him.
When I arrived at Qingfeng Building, I saw Du Ziheng standing at the door, looking downstairs with his hands on his hips. When he saw the two people coming in together, he immediately waved his hand.
After he got upstairs, he still complained: "Why did you come here?"
"You have to listen to the trembling words from the Ministry of War. You should still be the original Yanyang Army. I have the final say. If you want to go out, you are not allowed to report to the Ministry of War. If you don't follow the same procedures, it's just that group of people.
, you have to make trouble for me." Lin Haoxuan complained in turn.
Cao Jiliang couldn't help but ask: "Is the young Marquis going to leave the capital?"
Lin Haoxuan nodded without hiding anything from him: "Yes."
Du Ziheng curled his lips in envy: "No, this is the reorganization of the Zhennan Army. A lot of new soldiers have been recruited. He thinks they are all lazy in this capital, so he insists on taking them out for training.
"
Cao Jiliang's face showed embarrassment again and he said: "Oh...that's it."
Lin Hao
There is no other way. Let’s save this army first. Later, when you recover, I can ask for a decree and return it to you.”
Cao Jiliang stared at him blankly, and then a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, little Marquis, but... maybe it won't work..."
"Why!" Lin Haoxuan didn't understand the question.
Du Ziheng immediately helped to speak: "You don't know what's going on in the city, so don't ask. It's rare for us to get together to have a drink, so don't mention it."
"What happened?" Lin Haoxuan was still confused.
Du Ziheng once again advised Cao Jiliang, who was hanging his head: "General Cao, don't blame the young marquis. He is in the military camp in the outer city and doesn't know what's going on in the city. Don't be surprised."
"Of course not, but I still can't believe it. How could this happen? It was so sudden." Cao Jiliang shook his head sadly.
"General Cao, didn't you ask Prime Minister Cao? What did he say?" Du Ziheng asked.
Cao Jiliang shook his head: "My father has fallen ill. Someone from the hospital has checked him out. He is safe for the time being, but he falls asleep from time to time. I also asked him, but he...he said that it had nothing to do with me. He was unjust and refused to let him go.
I participate, even if I don't participate, my current position will still have to be returned."
"Return it? Why! You didn't understand anything, you didn't know whether you were guilty or not, so you were dismissed?" Du Ziheng asked in a louder voice.
Lin Haoxuan's eyes swept across the two people's faces, then he slapped the table: "What are you talking about? What's going on?"
Du Ziheng looked at him and said: "Prime Minister Cao was accused of being related to the case in Shezhou City Circle. The emperor was furious and ordered him to stay in the palace until the people sent to Shezhou to investigate came back before making a decision. Moreover, before that
, General Cao just lost a son, and it was Su Xiaoniang and Miss Cao who caused this. All these blows fell on General Cao, it’s no wonder that he is not sad. "
"Ah? So that's it... I really don't know, General Cao..." Lin Haoxuan was shocked.
Cao Jiliang shook his head sadly: "The matter has come to this, it is useless to say anything. I miss my father and am loyal to the Holy Qin. I will not do such a thing. I believe that the emperor must have made a clear decision and will not be unjust.
Father."
Lin Hao
"That's true, but where are you going to practice this time? You won't continue to recruit troops along the way." Du Ziheng looked yearning.
"We will definitely recruit again. The current Zhennan Army has not recruited enough people. Moreover, I still believe that actual combat is faster than practicing against dead objects in the military camp every day." Lin Haoxuan spoke directly to Lin Haoxuan.
He explained.
"I really envy you, I want to, but my brother won't let me go to Haocang Army, so I stay in Dali Temple all day. It's really boring." Du Ziheng complained again.
Lin Hao
"You see my joke, right? I'm fined with alcohol!" Du Ziheng glared at him angrily.
Lin Haoxuan picked up the wine and took a big sip without caring. When he put it down again, he was still grinning with his teeth bared.
Du Ziheng suddenly thought of something and asked him: "By the way, Xiaohou, have you heard that banditry is rampant in various places now, and the largest one is in Fanjia Mountain in Yi'an County, where there is a village called Fanli Village
He is particularly arrogant, and the county has sent out several encirclement and suppression campaigns, but nothing happened. If your newly formed Zhennan Army is suppressed, let alone, it will be a very happy thing."
Lin Haoxuan's eyes lit up, but he frowned again: "Yi'an County? That's going to the southwest, but our original route was to go south. This is not going well."
"Just think of a way." Du Ziheng rolled his eyes at him.
"Okay, let me think about it." Lin Haoxuan raised his glass and nodded with him, but his eyes glanced again, and he still quietly put the glass to his lips, but Cao Jiliang didn't drink a sip. The two of them couldn't understand each other anymore.
Xuan's eyes met and he raised his eyebrows.
After Cao Jiliang finished drinking with them, they went directly to Prince Qi'an's Mansion.
