Happy day for the little general

14. The emperor finally decided to marry the eldest princess. Along with the marriage team, there were spies who did not know who sent them, and burned the few remaining food and grass.

"It's the sixth prince," I said, looking at Yan Lu who was squatting on the ground with black hands.

The Sixth Prince is the eldest son of Concubine Zhao, and now that Concubine Zhao is about to be crowned Empress, the Sixth Prince should hide his strength and bide his time. It is estimated that he did not plan to do it so early, just because Yan Lun snatched away Zhao Zhishu's close confidant and let the Sixth Prince do it in advance.

Once married, a direct princess can keep the frontier peaceful for at least ten years, and the Yan family's army will return to Beijing if there is no war in the frontier. This is not a good thing for the princes who intend to seize the throne.

The sixth prince wanted Yan Lu to die, maybe not only the sixth prince wanted so much, but he did it first.

The sixth prince's original intention should be to force Yan to kill. Maybe the soldiers were dissatisfied and let him die in a mutiny, or he was not good at governing the army so he could go back to court for trial, but no one thought that the barbarian heard from the marriage team that the food and grass of the Yan family's army had been burned. That night, he beheaded the princess, tore up the letter of surrender, hung her head on the flagpole, and called for battle against the city.

Now not only Yan Lu will die at the border, but the [-] soldiers and countless people in Jingzhou will also be buried together.

The morale of the army is low, and they dare not go out of the city to fight. Everyone knows that it is over.

Zhao Min found me that night and wanted to take me away first.

That night Yan Lu brought me his war horse and asked me to go first.

"You and I are not a real husband and wife, why are you here waiting to die with me? How miserable it is to be hungry before you die." He may still think that he is quite humorous, but his expression is too sad.

"Lingnan is not short of money, and I am not short of money either. You just fight. With me, the Yan family army will not be hungry."

I took out the Lingnan King's token and spent the only food in the private property in several nearby cities, but it was just a drop in the bucket.

In order for this group of men who defended their home and the country not to be so useless to bury their bones in a foreign country, I still bid farewell to Yan Lu and prepared to return to the capital alone.

The day Yan Lu saw me off, his eyes were red. He might not want me to go, or he might want to go with me.

But he has no choice, behind him are the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the lives of thousands of innocent people.

I hugged him tightly, and pulled off the ancestral jade pendant worn by the general's wife that day and threw it on him: "If I come back alive, you can put it on with your own hands. I don't want to pay homage to the rooster this time."

You have to live, we get married, really get married.

I didn't finish my sentence, but I believe he can understand.

Instead of looking at him, I got on my horse.

Well, I can ride a horse, I don't usually ride, but now I can't help it, I can't help it.
