Chapter 504 Rescue the beggar
Jin Yiwei led his subordinates and returned to the capital to resume his orders. By the way, he reported the battle situation in the south. Thirty-six counties of the two prefectures have been lost.
The emperor was as anxious as ants on a hot pot. The ancestors of their Xuanyuan family had said that it was the Chu family who guarded the south.
For hundreds of years, the Chu family has been guarding the border of Nanxuanyuanqi with great determination. Although there have been constant wars, they have never lost their territory.
Until Xuanyuan Qi ascended the throne, he was trying to weaken the power of the Chu family and slowly installed his cronies into the Chu family army.
Xuanyuan Qi thought that the arrangement of more than 20 years was mature, and it happened that Chu Lixuan was seriously injured and disabled.
In addition, the treasury was empty, and the emperor had the idea to confiscate the property of the Houfu. His royal sister kept the house frugally, and the property of the Houfu was countless.
However, in the end, there is no property at all, and now it is still in such a dilemma.
"Zhong Aiqing, how is the northern border? I have not received any good news from King Zhenbei, nor have I asked for support."
Xuanyuanqi just received a biography of flying pigeons from the commanding adults, saying that 300,000 flying horses from North Vietnam were overwhelmed by the situation, causing the emperor to sleep and eat.
And the King of Zhenbei did not send a letter to the emperor's brother, saying that Beiyue was attacking, so there was no need to report safety.
Anyway, there is no military salary for them, so what letter do you send! He is busy fighting with Chu Lixuan to deceive food!
Lord Commander: "..." The minister doesn't know either! That day, 300,000 flying cavalry from North Vietnam attacked the city.
After being repelled by their fierce Jinyiwei, I knew that North Vietnam would definitely fight back with all my strength, so I hurried away with my subordinates.
Also lost two fierce generals, especially Cui Guogong's third-family concubine grandson, what can you say!
"Reporting to the sage, the minister took his subordinates to repel the 300,000 flying cavalry from North Vietnam that day, and then rushed to the southern border with grain and grass. Since the King of Zhenbei did not call for support, North Vietnam should be scared off by the minister's Jinyiwei."
Even if he counterattacked, he probably didn't break the border gates, so Beiyue was really difficult to deal with. The King of Zhenbei probably didn't have time to write a memorial.
"Zhong Aiqing, my Dongchen can't be without you! Go find all the boys from the third house of the Chu family and let them lead troops to support the Lu family army." Xuanyuan Qi instructed weakly.
"My subordinates will send someone over immediately. Your Majesty, please take care of your dragon body. There is the King of Zhenbei in the north of Dongchen, and the army of Zhenxi in the west. As long as you solve the Nanman, you can sit back and relax."
Lord Commander knelt down to take orders, and his ability to slap rainbow farts was as strong as ever. The emperor was really in a better mood after hearing this.
"Zhong Aiqing is flat. Aiqing has been working hard all the way, so let's go back and rest." The emperor rarely cared about his loyal ministers.
"Thanks Lord Longen, Wei Chen retire." The commander felt that this task was okay, so he just went to the third house of the Chu family.
Since the Xuanyuan family is in the world, it is destined that the Chu family can protect the southern border, Xuanyuanqi kept an eye at that time, and turned a blind eye to the Chu family's three-family stay in the capital.
Now it can finally come in handy, but what Xuanyuan Qi doesn't know is that Chu Lixuan's grandfather doesn't like the third son.
Therefore, Sanfang did not teach any of the Chu family's martial arts and tactics at all, that is, they were more ordinary than ordinary generals.
The eldest son of the Chu family's third house, Chu Lijie is not even a military general at all, he has never been on the battlefield, how could he be able to turn the tide!
Xuanyuan Qi went to the doctor because of a sudden illness. The Xuanyuan royal family was reducing expenses, but the breakfast in the palace was still very rich.
Although there are no 81 dishes like before, there are still more than 30 dishes.
pity! The emperor had no appetite to eat, so he ate it into the belly of the **** palace maid. If the Zhenxi Army saw this, they would definitely be cursed.
The commander did not go back to rest obediently, but returned to the Jinyi Pro-Army to command the envoy and listen to the reports of his subordinates.
When he learned that the third prince actually brought the side concubine and the daughter of the prime minister to Youzhou to **** grain and grass, the leader of such a calm person widened his eyes in surprise.
"This third prince is also a ruthless man, not to mention the exhaustion of boats and cars outside, just to say that outside is so poor that it is a problem to eat."
"My lord, this is the strength of the third prince. The prime minister and his wife are so precious, they must eat and drink along the way." The deputy commander said gloating.
"Yeah, the Prime Minister's Mansion still has grain in the entire capital. I don't know why the Prime Minister thinks of storing grain. Every time the ministers donate grain, the Prime Minister's Mansion donates the most."
But according to their Jinyiwei spy, the Prime Minister's residence still has enough food, and the emperor does not ask about these things, and there is no need for them to say.
After all, it is not a good thing to offend the Prime Minister. They just listen to the situation in the Baiguan Mansion.
When the emperor needs it, they will report it immediately, and if they don't need it, they will always be kept in the archives of their envoys.
"My lord, there is a bigger matter, which is also from the Prime Minister's Mansion. According to the secret agent, the Prime Minister's wife bribed Man Jianghong's assassin to assassinate the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The only son of the Prime Minister's Mansion knows.
The young master got into a quarrel with the prime minister's wife in a rage, and threatened to tell him the prime minister's father, the prime minister's wife is also a ruthless person, so he imprisoned the young master.
However, that young master was not a vegetarian either, so he sneaked into the room where the prime minister's wife was talking to her eldest daughter in the middle of the night.
Don't know what you heard? A month ago, she ran away overnight. The Prime Minister's wife was afraid that the Prime Minister would know the truth, so she ordered a servant to pretend to be a young master and make a scene every day without seeing anyone. "
"What? The prime minister didn't see his son for a month and didn't find out?"
"That little servant is also a talented person, and he can actually imitate the voice of the young master. Every time the prime minister wants to see him, it is just that he wants to see the second sister. If he does not see the second sister, no one will be seen, and the prime minister will shake his head and leave with a sigh. "
The deputy commander's entourage is also a very gossip person, and he speaks with spittle.
The only son of the Prime Minister's mansion ran away with anger, but their Jinyiwei spies didn't hear it either, so he wanted to tell the commander.
If the commander is interested, he will send someone to investigate, which can also satisfy his curiosity.
"Don't worry about this matter. This seat only needs to know whether the ministers harbor bad intentions. Don't report these trivial matters to this seat."
personally bowed their heads in disappointment and stood aside, and the others also reported the important events in the other ministers' mansion one by one, such as the West Army in the relief town that went bankrupt in the Dingxihou mansion.
The expenses in the mansion dropped again and again, even the prince and the prince were eating two meat and one vegetarian meal, and the other sons and young ladies were eating one meat and one vegetarian meal...
Chu Lixuan and Jiang Xinyan were driving their carriages slowly on the official road, and there were no pedestrians on the road.
"Husband~ Look, there is a little beggar lying in front of him, let's save him."
