After King Anjun and Li Jingrong led their troops to northern Xinjiang, the emperor sent General Fuyuan to lead some troops to join them.Such a battle made Li Jingrong very excited. He asked several times to lead the army first, but was rejected one by one by King An.

Li Jingrong couldn't figure it out, his father asked him to wait patiently before sending out troops, now that the army has been dispatched, food and grass are sufficient, and there are many soldiers, why are you still hesitating?

Faced with the increasingly impatient eldest prince, King An also had difficulties to speak of.The soldiers in the barracks mostly think about making meritorious deeds on the battlefield, while the emperor focuses on the ultimate benefit. Now that the imperial order has not arrived, who would dare to act rashly?

The battlefield is a confrontation of knives and swords, as long as there is a battle, the winner can be determined; while the imperial court issued a series of decrees, it is a game of wisdom and strategy, and it depends on who can seize the opportunity.

Nine days later, the emperor sent envoys to Baiwuli with the vanguard.

Li Jingrong knew that the envoy's trip this time was not only as simple as negotiating, but also took on the important task of inquiring news. He wanted to go with him no matter what he said, but he was intercepted by the emperor's decree.After this period of time, Li Jingrong's patience was almost exhausted.He couldn't understand King An's thoughts, let alone accept the emperor's reasons.

Just because he is not a general or a commander in chief, he cannot order the army to act; just because he is the prince, the emperor's nobleman, he cannot inquire in depth about the news. This is far from the battlefield life he imagined.In the front, he was constrained by King An's various restrictions; while in the rear, his father fell ill on the way to the conquest.

……

After the emperor dragged his exhausted body to discuss the military deployment with the ministers, he returned to his tent, picked up the memorial and prepared to review it, but he was in a daze.

"Cough, cough, cough..." He put one hand on his mouth, and the other hand pulled the cloak behind him.Dang Xiao stood aside, hurriedly brought a cup of tea to him, and carefully helped him breathe.

After coughing for a while, the emperor picked up the memorial, ready to continue giving instructions.

"Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body!" Dang Xiao said worriedly.

"I'm fine, you step back first!" The emperor ignored him and continued to study the maps and memorials seriously.While Dang Xiao ordered his attendants to light the lamps in the emperor's big tent, he was busy with the emperor's imperial meals and medicines.

The next day, the ministers and guards who accompanied him found that the emperor's physical condition was worse than yesterday, and jointly signed a letter, hoping that the emperor could return to the mainland to recuperate, but he vetoed it.

"Your Majesty, Prince Anjun and General Fuyuan have already joined forces. Don't worry, it's important to take care of the dragon's body!" Seeing the emperor standing outside the big tent, looking at the distant battlefield absently, Dang Xiao stepped forward and gave the cloak to him. He put it on and comforted him carefully.

"I'm just a little worried...I'm worried about this kid, Boss."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is brave and mighty. This time, you will definitely be able to make great achievements on the battlefield. Don't worry about it." Dang Xiao comforted him respectfully as he followed him.

The emperor glanced at him, and then turned his gaze to the distance.Dang Xiao stared blankly at the emperor's back, which looked so lonely and helpless... Dang Xiao rubbed his eyes, tapped his forehead, and thought to himself: What is he thinking about?That's the emperor, how could he be helpless!

The emperor's eyes swept back and forth in the distance, with the battlefield on one side and the capital on the other, and his position was exactly in between.He has always felt that no matter where he is, he can plan strategies and grasp the dynamics of all parties, because he is the master of the world.But at this time he didn't have such self-confidence, perhaps because he was getting older and he was becoming more and more careful.

The emperor clenched his fists and smiled self-deprecatingly. How could he feel confused when he was so surrounded?

"Your Majesty, the Vanguard Battalion is here to report!"

While the emperor was in a trance, a guard brought Li Jingrong's memorial.The emperor looked at the guard with sharp eyes, turned around and returned to the big tent after a while, "Come in and answer."

The guard followed behind him tremblingly, not daring to make a sound.

Sitting on the main seat, the emperor picked up the memorial and glanced at it. After a short while, he slapped the memorial on the table, scaring the guard to kneel down hastily.

"Tell me, what does the eldest prince mean by that!"

The emperor over there was questioning the guards sent by Li Jingrong, and the king of An Jun also came to Li Jingrong's big tent here.He was writing something with a pen at this time, when he sensed someone, he raised his head and glanced at King An, and continued his business, which made King An very dissatisfied, and snatched Li Jingrong's pen, Li Jing Only then did Rong stand up slowly and salute, and asked arrogantly, "I don't know what the general is talking about coming here?"

"What's the matter?" Hearing Li Jingrong's words, King An was furious, "Do you know that you disobeyed the orders of the army and sent troops to harass Bai Wuli without authorization, which will ruin the big thing!"

"Bad thing?" Li Jingrong provocatively said: "Uncle, if I remember correctly, this is a battlefield, and the competition is who is stronger, who is braver, and who has stronger troops. As for you, you hide in the barracks all day Here, what kind of battle is this fighting?"

Prince An said helplessly: "Eldest prince, I know you are impatient, but you have to consider the overall situation when fighting."

"Think about the overall situation? I've always only known that soldiers are expensive and fast."

"But what the emperor wants this time is not just victory in the war, but..."

"Uncle! General!" Li Jingrong interrupted him sharply, "These are things the emperor should consider, not those of us marching. We just need to ensure the victory of the war."

"Prince," Prince An said earnestly, "All our actions must be based on the emperor's decree. If you act rashly like this, it will destroy the emperor's overall plan. When the emperor blames it, who will bear it?"

"Enough!" Li Jingrong roared angrily: "Why do you always say that I will do bad things? We are the leaders, and we only have enemies in our eyes. As for the rear, Father will make arrangements. But, you know I don't know, Father's arrangement is also based on our report, if we do nothing, then how can Father take further actions?"

"Eldest Prince, you—" King An looked at the person in front of him in shock, his eyes were bright and firm, his body was upright, and his youthful spirit was like an eagle ready to go, but...

"Hey, you're still too young." Seeing that he couldn't convince him, King An sighed and turned to leave.

Li Jingrong looked at the somewhat lonely back of King An, and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. That feeling almost made him want to call out to this uncle whom he had always looked down upon, but he hesitated for a while, and finally gave up. up.

"Prince An Jun?" General Fuyuan, who had finished his camp tour, looked at the somewhat dazed figure of King An Jun, and hurriedly chased after him.

"General Zhan, what's the matter?" An Junwang looked back at General Fuyuan running towards him in a hurry, and asked calmly.

"What's the matter? This is what I should ask you, why is King An so out of his mind?" General Fuyuan carefully studied King An's face, then looked in the direction of King An, and asked carefully: " Did you go to see the First Prince? Did he get mad at you? How could the First Prince do this, you are also his uncle after all."

King Anjun usually has no airs, so the officials in the court talk to him more casually, and General Fuyuan has an old friend with him, so he is not so reserved at this time.

"Sigh." Anjun Wangchang sighed, and told him the conversation with Li Jingrong.

After General Fuyuan heard this, a look of approval appeared on his face, "Didn't I expect the eldest prince to think so? It's really rare to be straightforward, dare to think and dare to do it, he is worthy of being the emperor's son!"

"What do you know?" Prince An blamed, "So what if you're not wrong? Don't you forget who the eldest prince is?"

"The emperor's son." General Fuyuan didn't know why.

"Hey, it's true that the eldest prince is the emperor's son, but he is the emperor's courtier first. Do you think his disobedience is worthy of praise?"

"This..." General Fuyuan looked at King An's expression, and swallowed the words when he reached his mouth, thinking about how to express it, but finally made up his mind, and said solemnly: "King An, I think you Sometimes it is too strict, the emperor is the father of the eldest prince after all, so there is no need to be so careful between father and son."

King An Jun looked at the distant sky and said in a low voice: "The king of heaven and earth is a parent and a teacher. The king is in the front and the kiss is in the back. The emperor is the master of all of us first, and the father of the eldest prince and my brother next. If the prince has been so self-willed and presumptuous, I can't guarantee that something will happen to him someday."

General Fuyuan grinned, "I think, Prince An, you are envious of the eldest prince. I can see it these days. You also want to send troops. You dare to think about what the eldest prince said but dare not Did you mean it? These years, you have kept in mind that you are the emperor's courtiers, living carefully, is actually very tiring!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" An Junwang glared at him, feeling a little emotional: "It's not easy for the emperor."

"You don't need to remind me, I know it's not easy for the emperor," General Fuyuan said nonchalantly, "Actually, I think it's good for the eldest prince, for him, the emperor is just his father."

"Hey, I'm afraid it will be a disaster after a long time."

"The eldest prince is still young," General Fuyuan said meaningfully: "Young people can act recklessly and make mistakes at will, and they will always be forgiven, won't they?"

"Young people can make mistakes and can be forgiven, but we are royal people, and there is no small matter in the Tian family. Royal children have no right to make mistakes." Prince An said firmly.

"The king of Anjun can't help it." General Fuyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at the king of Anjun, "If you really think what you said, then did you tell the eldest prince what you just said? I guess not .Although you really want to remind the eldest prince that the emperor is the emperor first, and his father second, but you will definitely not say it, will you?"

King An Jun laughed at himself and looked into the distance, not knowing how to answer.
