Emperor's Trophy

When Yang Dongfu of the Nine Borders Governor's Mansion received the letter of credence sent by Yun Jiangning Yuxue, he was a little surprised.

But he just said: "Is that the son of Prince Changguang of Beiqi? I will send someone to send the letter of credence to Beijing immediately. As for when to send troops to rescue, I have to wait for the king's order."

Yun Jiangning said: "The Royal Court of Beiqi is in critical condition. I also ask Dudu Yang to send troops to the border immediately. Once the emperor's order arrives, he can send troops immediately. Finally, the general is willing to lead the team to lead the way."

Yang Dongfu said casually: "How can I be so rash in dispatching troops? Besides, I don't know if it's true. What if I lie about the military situation, or the enemy provokes dissension, wouldn't it be deceiving the Holy Majesty? Let's send scouts to investigate first, and then decide. .”

Yun Jiangning raised his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, please return the letter of credence to Dudu Yang, and I will personally send it to the capital."

Yang Dongfu looked down and saw bloodstains on the other party's body, and his blue eyes were cold and cold, he couldn't help being startled, thinking that this son of a wolf is watching the eagle, maybe it wasn't Bei Qie's trick to lure me into a trap, he couldn't believe it even more, he knew it on the surface "No, today's envoys are also on the nine sides. After I discuss with the imperial envoy, I will make up my mind. You can stay in the Dudu's mansion."

The problem is that Lord Yun has gone to the Wuxiong tribe!He didn't know when he would be able to return, let alone if he was caught by Ji Huaisu, Yun Jiangning said: "Dudu Yang is worrying, the royal court is in danger and there is no need to delay, let's send the letter of credence to Beijing at the end."

The military adviser beside Yang Dongfu scolded: "You barbarian is so ignorant! Our court has its own laws and regulations, so you can do whatever you want?"

But I saw a person at the gate of the Dudu Mansion asking: "Is it Yun Jiangning, the son of Prince Changguang?"

Yang Dongfu looked up and saw that it was Ding Dai, his heart stopped, but he saw Yun Jiangning turned his head and took a look, but suddenly knelt down on his knees and bowed to him.

Before, he was obviously arrogant like an unreasonable wolf, but now he pays homage to an eunuch like this?Did he think that this eunuch was his savior?

Yang Dongfu was both disdainful and mocking in his heart, but he saw Ding Dai sideways and bowed deeply, making way for a tall man behind him.The man stepped in, with a handsome appearance and a noble bearing, and a five-clawed golden dragon was embroidered all over the black robe.

Yang Dongfu's blood rushed to his head, he jumped up almost in a daze, and then he quickly stepped forward, knelt down on the ground with unprecedented agility: "My minister Yang Dongfu pays homage to the emperor, long live, long live! If you can welcome me from afar, I deserve death!"

All the generals and staff members in the hall were so frightened that they knelt down to pay respects.

Ji Bingyuan took the seat first, and said calmly: "I just arrived, this time is a secret patrol, don't let it out, get up."

Yang Dongfu got up tremblingly, but he heard the Holy Majesty directly asking, "What's going on with Beiqi?"

He bowed and was about to answer, but he saw Yun Jiangning on his side stepping up and answering: "Six tribes including the Wuxiong tribe and the Wa snake tribe set up a new king, gathered tens of thousands of rebels to besiege Beiqi Wangcheng, and Beiqi Wang Yuanzhao presented his credentials , ask the emperor to send troops to rescue, may the generations pay tribute, conclude marriages, do not engage in swords and swords, and make peace forever."

Yang Dongfu was very surprised, but he saw that Ding Dai didn't stop, so it can be seen that the Holy Majesty was really asking that Hu Er something.

Ji Bingyuan continued to ask: "Where is Marquis Zhaoxin?" Yang Dongfu was surprised, isn't Marquis Zhaoxin sick?

Yun Jiangning replied: "Master Hou and King Qingyang followed the Zhou's caravan to investigate the situation of the Wuxiong tribe but have not returned. The situation is unknown."

Ji Bingyuan continued to ask: "How many people did he bring?"

Yun Jiangning said: "A total of 300 people entered Beiqi in batches. I left 50 people at my command and took 250 people away."

Ji Bingyuan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, turned around and told Ding Dai, "Bring Zhu Jiang here."

Ding Dai bowed and said: "I have sent someone there. He is Chang Lin's guard. It will take some time to rush over to meet the saint."

Ji Bingyuan nodded slightly, then turned to Yang Dongfu and said, "Yang Dongfu."

Yang Dongfu hurried forward: "The minister is here!"

Ji Bingyuan said: "Send three thousand cavalry immediately, and go to Beiqie to break the siege with the prince of Changguang, and prepare another three thousand elite soldiers as reinforcements. Order the nine border military towns to be under martial law. All soldiers will be on guard in rotation and obey orders at any time."

Yang Dongfu cheered up and said: "I listen to the order!"

Ji Bingyuan nodded to Yun Jiangning: "You go down with Dudu Yang——If you have news from Marquis Zhaoxin, order someone to pass it on immediately."

Yun Jiangning kowtowed, stood up and retreated with Yang Dongfu.

The holy driver was called, and Zhu Jiang arrived soon, bringing back Ji Huaisheng and Fang Luyun.

Ji Bingyuan's eyelids twitched slightly when he saw Ji Huaisheng: "Isn't Qing with Zhao Xinhou?"

Ji Huaisheng knelt down and replied: "It is true that the minister and Marquis Zhaoxin used a caravan to cover up the visit to the Wuxiong tribe at the beginning, and found that the strong and strong men of the Wuxiong tribe are no longer there. Only the old, weak, women and children are left in the tribe. It was very large, so it should have been prepared for battle. Later, when the ministers hurriedly evacuated late at night, they realized that Hou Zhaoxin's plan was to lure the enemy. Hou Zhaoxin used his own risk to lure the master envoy out, and then led his troops to risk the enemy overnight. Yu went to hunt him down, but the rain was too heavy at the time, so I could only obey the arrangement and return to Changlin under the escort of Deputy General Fang."

Ji Bingyuan asked: "Who is behind the scenes?"

Ji Huaisheng's face was pale: "Hejian Wang Ji Huaisu, he admitted that he didn't become a feudal clan at the beginning, and sent a substitute to become a feudal clan. Now, the Beiqi rebels call him a military adviser. Yichen and others speculate that the rebels should have gone to the royal court. .”

Ji Bingyuan made up his mind, and out of the 250 people, at least three or forty people were assigned to escort Ji Huaisheng. That is to say, Yun Zhen brought two hundred private soldiers trained by himself, and dared to chase the treacherous people in unfamiliar places. The wise Ji Huaisu, still braved the rain, took advantage of the night.

He took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions: "Send three thousand cavalry, and I will lead people to look for it myself. Is there a guide?"

Ji Huaisheng said hastily: "The old guide brought by the minister caravan who is familiar with the terrain is still resting in Changlin City and can be a guide."

Zhu Jiang stepped forward, her eyes were bloodshot: "The final general is willing to accompany you. Vice-General Fang led the troops to set up an ambush last night. He should also remember the terrain."

Ji Bingyuan stood up: "Sure, let's get ready, I want to set off immediately."

He had already stepped out, and saw that the sky had cleared, and the blue sky stretched as far as the eye could see. In the distance, Yang Dongfu had personally ordered soldiers to set off with Yun Jiangning, and the vanguard had already galloped away.

Jun Yubai came over and said, "There is still no news?" To be on the safe side, Ji Bingyuan specially brought him with the army this time.

Ji Bingyuan shook his head.

Jun Yubai was slightly worried: "Master Hongxu said that this child is the fate of a lonely phoenix. He was born lonely and has no pity. There will be a catastrophe before the crown. If someone with great luck helps him to overcome the catastrophe, then he will be able to survive the catastrophe." From then on, it will be smooth and smooth, without any worries and difficulties.”

Ji Bingyuan was silent, he didn't believe in fate, but at this moment he hoped that he really had the great luck of a real dragon.

He has experienced hundreds of battles and victories, but he has never been so afraid.

He was even furious.

He easily burned the imperial decree, easily said such words as burial, and wasted his life like this, but he never thought, what would happen to him if something happened to him?

He closed his eyes, yes, his auspicious son has died twice, and each time I did avenge him, but he lived on.Therefore, he feels that his life is insignificant, that no one cares about it, and that it can be quickly forgotten. People can sacrifice him, abandon him, ignore him, forget him, continue to live, move on, and the flowers are still the same. Open, the sun still falls as usual.

So you can throw it away easily, you can give it up easily, and you can exchange it for other things.

He puts a lot of things lightly on his own life.

It's just Ji Huaisu, why should my queen personally risk her life to lure him out?

Of course he knew that Yun Zhen was actually afraid of the unknown future, the future where his royal conquest disappeared, so he wanted to erase the signs of war no matter what.

He is for me.he knows.

His auspicious son has always had the idea of ​​contemptuous life, he can want to be buried casually, he can not cherish it, he is always greedy for joys and sorrows, and he can do whatever he wants, as if there is no tomorrow if he has the present, so once he wants to, he must be happy and be with him He also only thought that he was happy and comfortable, but when he left, he was so straightforward and without any worries.

He realized early on that he underestimated himself, but he didn't pay attention to it, and didn't correct him properly.

He forgot that his parents died young, there was no elders to teach him, and he never met someone who cherished him in two lifetimes.No one told him that there were people in this world who loved him and respected him, and taught him not to throw it away lightly.

No one told him that there are people in this world who love him more than anything else, that he will be afraid when he is in danger, that he will be distressed when he is injured, that he will be sad when he is sick, and that if he dies... he will follow him.

No one is more important than him, and nothing is better than being alive.

He gritted his teeth and thought: When he gets it back this time, he must teach him this truth until he will never forget it for the rest of his life.
