Bandit report, always good

Yan Yan returned to Yongcheng first, and Pei Jiming took Huerle back to Shouzhou.

Pei Jiming left his post without permission, and Emperor Jin'an casually asked him for a few words. Because he brought back the son of Rouran, it was more than enough. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Emperor Jin'an intended to protect Dudu Pei.

Things progressed as expected, and Emperor Jin'an secretly threatened Wuhuan with Huerle. In order to save his son's life, Wuhuan had to withdraw his troops on the grounds that he was seriously ill. When Rou Ran retreated, the strength of the Thirteen Divisions of Beiyue was greatly weakened, and Jin soldiers took the opportunity to attack aggressively. , Beiyue retreated steadily.

The reason for the retreat of the other twelve generals was attributed to Rouran. The Wuhuan Khan led the Rouran tribe to move northward. Beiyue fought for the grassland left by the Rouran tribe, and civil strife broke out again. The Jin army took advantage of the victory to pursue it. So far, Beiyue was completely defeated. .

Emperor Jin'an went on a personal expedition in the first month, and the period lasted six months. The Jin army won a great victory, and the news spread back to the interior of the Jin State, and the whole country was jubilant.

The night wind was blowing, and Emperor Jin'an stood alone on the city, looking at the lonely grassland outside the city, with a gloomy expression.

Pei Jiming came up, he saw Emperor Jin'an standing alone, and the guards were standing a few feet away, he hesitated, Pei Jiming still walked over: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Jin'an turned his face slightly: "Pei Qing, you are back."

Beiyue negotiated peace with the state of Jin, and Emperor Jin'an sent General Feng Xu to negotiate. In order to prevent accidents, Emperor Jin'an also sent Liuhe Division to secretly protect Feng Xu.

"General Feng has properly handled the negotiation matters, and the contract is being drafted. I will ask His Majesty to review it later." Pei Jiming reported.

Emperor Jin'an smiled lightly: "Feng Xu is the most suitable for negotiating matters on the field."

Pei Jiming responded, and then stood at the side of Emperor Jin'an, obeying the arrangement.

Emperor Jin'an looked back and saw that Pei Jiming was a little far away from him, so he raised his hand and said, "Pei Qing, come over and talk to me."

Pei Jiming came over as promised.

"Beiyue and Dajin have been stalemate for a hundred years, and I have been on the throne for more than [-] years, and I am troubled by border issues every year." Emperor Jin'an looked at the grassland not far away.

"When Marquis Chongyu was alive, the Hu people retreated thousands of miles to the frontier, and they have not invaded for seven years. In those seven years, the Dajin River was clean and the sea was clean, and the country was peaceful and the people were safe." Emperor Jin'an raised his hand and made a random sign of seven.

"After the execution of Marquis Chongyu, the Liuhe Division relied on your father alone to stabilize the border for several years, but after all, it was not as good as the Chongyu Army back then."

"Everyone knows that Liuhe Division is the sharp edge of the Jin Dynasty. When Liuhe Division is mentioned, all Beiyue people tremble with fear. But if you mention the Chongyu Army back then, Beiyue people are not only timid, but also admirable." Emperor Jin'an said sincerely: "On Marching and fighting, your father is not as good as Chong Yuhou, and I am not as good as him."

Chong Yuhou?It was Chong Yuhou again.

Pei Jiming thought about it and asked, "Your Majesty, what did Marquis Chong Yu commit?"

Emperor Jin'an was silent for a moment, then said for a long time: "Your father said he was collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Collaboration with the enemy and treason?Your Majesty can clearly say these four words directly, why did you add the words "your father said"?Pei Jiming thought to himself, it seems that there was indeed something tricky about Chong Yuhou Yian back then, from Yu Mian, to Baili Mufeng, and then to Yang Kaitai, they were all related to the case of Chong Yuhou back then.

What happened back then, Pei Jiming did not ask, of course, he is not qualified to ask.

"Collaborating with the enemy and treason..." Emperor Jin'an let out a sigh: "The evidence is solid, what can I do?"

"After this incident, the generals of the Jin Dynasty declined, and the frontier was suppressed by the Liuhe Division. Beiyue and the Jin Dynasty had conflicts almost every year." Emperor Jin'an sighed again: "Now the war is over, but the war is not over yet. , how can I feel at ease?"

Pei Jiming said: "The Liuhe Division will follow His Majesty's orders."

Emperor Jin'an smiled helplessly: "Liuhesi is a sharp blade. Although a sharp blade is sharp, how can it compare to Beiyue cavalry?"

"It's worth it for a while, but it's not worth it for a lifetime." Emperor Jin'an smiled faintly.

Emperor Jin'an shook his head lightly, and said with a smile: "Forget it, let's not talk about it, the negotiations are going smoothly now, with Feng Xu's talent, it is no problem to find stability for the border for two or three years. The Jin Dynasty is full of talents, and the generals... will have of."

"En." Pei Jiming nodded.

Pei Jiming looked at the slightly lonely back of Emperor Jin'an, and his heart was troubled.

What does the emperor want in his life?How to ask for it?

In life, what do you want?How to... ask for it?

"Your Majesty." Pei Jiming said harmoniously, "I want to leave."

When Emperor Jin'an heard Pei Jiming's words, he didn't react much. He turned around slowly and looked at Pei Jiming.

Pei Jiming looked at him quietly with a calm expression.

"Do you know?" Emperor Jin'an squinted his eyes and smiled, continued to look at the grassland outside the city, and said unhurriedly: "I have been waiting for you to say this."

Pei Jiming was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

Emperor Jin'an said with a light smile, "Pei Qing, have you heard the story?"

No one told stories to Pei Jiming, Pei Jiming truthfully said: "...never."

"Jiming, I'll tell you a story, okay?" Emperor Jin'an looked at Pei Jiming like an elder.

Pei Jiming nodded: "Your Majesty, please tell me."

Emperor Jin'an's thoughts were pulled far away by the night. This story...where do we start?

In the story, there is an emperor who was not a crown prince when he was not enthroned, but a prince, but the prince was better than the prince in everything, so he made the queen jealous. The queen conspired with the prince to frame him, and he was killed. The father was demoted to the frontier.

The prince was not depressed because of bad luck. During those years at the border, he made many close friends. Among them was a young general. Conspire to retreat from the enemy.

The two were young and frivolous, and they didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth. The old general guarding the border at that time warned them to be cautious, but the two took the old general's words as deaf ears and didn't take them into their hearts.

Until one time when they were in a crisis and their lives were dying, the son of the old general led Qingqi to rescue them. But the girl is informal and has a bold temperament. She often drinks happily with the general and the prince. On the prince's suggestion, the three become brothers and sisters.

The old general died in battle, and the Holy One thought that he had made great contributions, so he named his daughter the princess, and the princess left the border after that.

The war will not end because of the death of one person. Later, the prince secretly disguised himself as a businessman and sneaked into the enemy army, intending to cooperate with the general. When he was visiting the slave market, the prince saw a slave owner beating a slave. The slave resisted desperately and was beaten. It was very miserable.The prince couldn't bear it, so he bought the man as a servant.

Under the cooperation of the inside and the outside, the general defeated the enemy army, and the prince returned to his homeland safely.During the period of lurking inside the enemy army, the prince was in crisis several times, and it was the servant who sacrificed his life to protect him. The prince thought of his life-saving grace, except for his slave status, and wanted to set him free, but the servant insisted on staying with the prince , the prince had no choice but to agree.

The prince and the general gradually became famous. The general was good at leading troops to fight. The prince established an organization to collect intelligence. The two cooperated with each other. As long as the enemy heard their names, they would be terrified, and the young man became the prince's close friend guard.

The lord found that the boy was very talented, and he could remember any martial arts just by teaching him once, so the lord promoted him to be the leader of that organization. At that time, he never thought that this would last a lifetime.

The servant has become a guard, the guard has a gloomy personality, and he doesn't care about others, but he is loyal to the prince, helping the prince to get rid of many enemies, and the prince is paying more and more attention to him.

The prince and the general made great military exploits, and they were summoned back to Beijing to receive the title. That day, the prince rode a tall horse through the market, and met the princess, whom he had not seen for a long time.

The prince and the princess went to a restaurant for dinner to reminisce about the old days. The prince noticed that the princess was peeping at the guards behind him from time to time, and he suddenly understood that although he felt sorry, he still hoped that the princess would be happy.

So the prince secretly matched the princess and the guard. The guard had a good impression of the princess. The two looked like a man and a woman, and they were a good match. The prince was very pleased.

Later, the emperor was seriously ill, and when he was dying, the emperor abolished the prince and established the prince. There was an uproar in the court. At the cusp of the crisis, it was the general who tried his best to support the prince as emperor, and the guards also removed many opponents for the prince.

The prince became the emperor, and the guards became the governors under one person and over ten thousand people, and they only obeyed the emperor's orders. What about the general... The general is still a general, and the emperor wanted to reward the general, but the general didn't want anything.

What the general wants is nothing more than a generation of Mingjun.

The general returned to the border and guarded the rivers and mountains for the emperor.

The situation in the court was unstable. In order to stabilize the emperor's power, the guards had won over many sects in the world, and secretly caught many ministers. The ministers of the court held grudges against the guards, but the emperor favored the guards, and the ministers had nothing to do.

After the emperor succeeded to the throne, he gave the princess and the guard a marriage. The guard sent the princess back to the fief after the marriage on the grounds that there were too many enemies in Beijing.

Five years later, the emperor received the news of the princess's death, and felt great grief. The guards were always by his side, comforting the emperor with gentle words, and often talked to him about the princess's trivial matters. The emperor gradually came out of his grief, and became more and more Trust the guards.

The guard's behavior was too extreme. In order to remove potential dangers for the emperor, he did a lot of unconscionable things. Everything is for him, for the stability of the court.

But later, what the guard did alarmed the general who was far away in the frontier. The general returned to Beijing immediately and begged the emperor to dismiss the guard, but the emperor only punished the guard a little.

In addition, the relationship between the general and the guards is also tense. The general often reprimands the guards in court, and the guards will also collect the general's inappropriate remarks about the emperor and report back to the emperor.

The emperor thought that the general was ignorant, so he punished the general a little, but the general had a tough attitude, and publicly declared in the court: If the guards are not removed, the country will perish!

The emperor was furious, so he cut off the general's military power. The emperor originally planned to leave the general idle for a few days, but unexpectedly, the guards collected evidence that the general wanted to rebel and communicated with the enemy country. This caused an uproar in the court.

The evidence is solid, the emperor must punish the general, but he couldn't bear it, and the ministers in the court also defended the general. The soldiers stood on their own, so the emperor hesitated.

The guard said that he would do everything for His Majesty, and the emperor believed it.

Unexpectedly, the general's family died tragically in prison overnight, and the emperor was stunned and shocked.

The general's case involved a lot, and many ministers were imprisoned. Many of these ministers were people who complained about the emperor on a daily basis. Is this the way... the guards paved the way for him?The emperor was terrified.

Are these ministers innocent?The emperor didn't delve into it, or rather, he didn't dare to delve into it. The matter has come to this point, and he can't help it anymore. He just wants to open this chapter quickly.

Because of the general's affairs, the emperor blamed himself very much, so he had some suspicions against the guards, but the guards worked hard and did their best for the emperor. Later, the emperor noticed something was wrong, and the guards looked at him...too hot, He had a vague guess in his mind, a guess that he didn't dare to think about deeply.

For so many years, the emperor has been inseparable from the convenience brought to him by the guards. Fortunately, the guards have always been extremely respectful to him and have never exceeded the rules. It's just his eyes that often make the emperor feel... uncomfortable.

Gradually, the emperor began to doubt the guard's original intention of marrying the princess. He pondered carefully. For so many years, the guards had eliminated those who were not enemies with him, or those who were close to him. This discovery shocked the emperor. Incessantly, he became more and more suspicious of the reason for the princess's death.

The emperor secretly investigated, and finally found out that there was another reason for the death of the princess. It turned out...it turned out that she had lived in such dire straits in the past five years...I didn't know that I was the one who pushed her into the fire pit with my own hands...

And the general... Was there really no room for maneuver back then?

Although those ministers often demanded harshly from him, how could it not be for this country?

He is not a faint king, the country is becoming more and more prosperous in his hands, but he is not a wise king, the princess died...the general died tragically...the minister was wronged...over the years, how much...has he done wrong?

Overnight, the emperor's temples were stained with frost, his heart was full of grief and anger, he was bedridden in a fit of anger, when the guards came to visit him, he just wanted to strangle the person in front of him to death!The man who did all the evil for him!

But he can't, he is the emperor, he is the emperor of Jin Dynasty!

He can't just fall down like this, he promised the general to be a generation of Mingjun, he has to make up for it, otherwise, after a hundred years, how can he make amends to the general and princess?

Finally, the emperor found an opportunity to send the guard out to perform a mission. Before leaving, the emperor asked the guard, does he love the princess?

The guard seemed to have guessed something, and said bluntly, no love.

"Then why did you marry her?"

"Because you love her."

"Stay by my side for so many years, do you regret it?"

"Three lives are lucky."

"...What do you wish for?"

"I hope that Your Majesty will be safe every year."

"No more."

"The minister will... do as His Majesty wishes."

Later, the guard did not return from his mission.
