Your Majesty, after he played stupid and overturned the car

After the summer, Yu Bei was so hot that he was dry. Ming Yelan hid in Changyuan and was placed in the Qi family's ancestral house. This house has not been renovated for a long time, and there are not many servants, so it looks desolate and dilapidated.

Just after noon, Qi Chaoce got off his horse outside the old house, and Ming Yelan was sewing military uniforms with the old woman under the shade of the trees in the courtyard.

"Ah, your lord is here." The old woman raised her head just in time to see it, and said with a smile.

Ming Yelan raised her head when she heard the sound, she was not dressed in brocade robes like in Yijing, she was only wearing a plain shirt, her hair was tied up with jade hairpins, she looked more beautiful.

"Master Hou." Ming Yelan stopped sewing, "Why are you here at this time?"

Qi Chaoce said concisely, "There is news from Yijing."

Ming Yelan was stunned, and his smile slowly faded away, as if he had instantly transformed back into the eldest princess who was still calm after hearing about the fight in the carriage.

She got up and went to the house with Qi Chaoce, and said calmly: "How is Yijing?"

"The Lu family has been removed." Qi Chaoce exhaled slowly, and said, "Now that the son is in charge, Your Highness, don't worry."

Ming Yelan was really stunned for a while, since she knew that the emperor was pretending to be stupid, she guessed that Ming Wanzhao would attack the Lu family sooner or later, but she also knew that the three generations of emperors before that had all been defeated by the aristocratic family.

The Lu family has been removed.

It's only four words, but there are too many dead bones hidden in it, how many people regret it for life?Ming Yelan lowered his eyes and laughed a few times, his eyes were quietly red.

"it is good."

Her voice was very soft, and she said good words without beginning or end. After a while, she asked with a tearful smile: "Your Majesty, is he okay?"

Qi Chaoce was at a loss for a moment because of the beautiful woman's tears, and said stiffly: "There are Second Uncle and Shen Song, Your Majesty's holy body is safe." After answering, he said: "Your Majesty also sent a message that the border has not been stable recently, Your Highness the Eldest Princess If you wish to return to the capital, the capital is now stable and you can welcome Your Highness."

Ming Yelan suddenly fell silent, she twitched her fingertips lightly, bowed her head in silence.

Qi Yanxing lowered his eyes and saw her slightly red and swollen fingertips, opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally said softly: "Your Highness has a golden body, there is no need to do this."

When Ming Yelan was in the palace, she was raised by Ming Rongzhou's side. She was taught how to manage the harem, and what she heard were all the political affairs of the previous dynasty.When she was in Yijing, she saw everyone was glamorous, but these days at the border, she really saw what is suffering in the world.

The common people just want to eat and clothe themselves warmly, and the soldiers who defend against foreign enemies even value a pair of new shoes. In this bitter cold place, they don't talk about intrigues.She used to feel bored in the palace, but after leaving the palace, she found that she would stab herself even when she sewed a pair of shoes.

Ming Yelan said softly, "The body of a thousand pieces of gold is a living person."

Qi Chaoce was slightly stunned, he was an unsmiling person, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty is right, the border has not been peaceful recently, since His Majesty has pacified Yijing, it will be safer for His Majesty."

Before Ming Yelan could reply, there was suddenly a heavy drum sound outside, one after another.

That was Yu Bei's battle drum representing the enemy's attack!

Qi Chaoce didn't have time to say more, leaving a sentence of "resignation, my minister" and hurried away.

Ming Ye chased out the door without knowing it, only saw the back of Qi Chao galloping away on horseback, she was worried, and the old woman's long sigh came from behind.

"Grandma, why are you sighing?" Ming Yelan asked.

The old woman lowered her head and was doing her needlework, sighing: "The sound of the drum is unlucky. Every time it echoes, people will die."

"What?" Ming Yelan's beautiful eyes widened, "What is this drum?"

The old woman raised her head in silence, her eyes were a little red, and she seemed to be absent-minded as if she was remembering. After a while, she said: "My son fought with the old Hou Ye. After the sound of the drum, the old Hou Ye and the Qi family The second son didn't come back, and my son didn't come back either."

Ming Yelan's heart trembled, feeling a little sour.

She understood what the drumming meant.

That year, the old Hou Ye and the second son of the Qi family died on the battlefield, and the bodies were found by Miss Lu. She had heard that the lady of the Lu family in Lingxi had worshiped heaven and earth on the grassland with her fiancé's relics in her arms.

The sound of Yu Bei's drum is a harbinger of unknown and death.

After midnight, it was already halfway through the night, and the sound of horseshoes alarmed the guards on the corner tower of Yijing City.

"Who is it?!" The visitor reined in the horse abruptly, and after the steed raised its head and neighed, the man said loudly: "Yu Bei is in a hurry! Open the city gate quickly!"

The city guards looked at each other, and then opened the city gate wide, and the flying sand and dust suddenly rose, disturbing the night birds.

The news was sent directly to the Qihua Palace, the lights came on suddenly, the emperor got up in his robes, read the letter paper reporting the military situation, his face remained unchanged, he passed the military love letter to Lu Yunchuan, and called out: "Baitan, call Su Jinhuai, Xing Ye and Qi Yan hurried to Chengming Pavilion."

The three came from outside the palace successively, later than Ming Wanzhao and Lu Yunchuan.

"Give a seat."

Ming Wanzhao's face was calm, and after the three of them had taken their seats, he said: "Yubei is in a hurry, Chinu King Banu led an army to attack Changyuan City, which disturbed the three of you in the middle of the night."

Xing Ye was surprised when he heard the news, "Banu wants to start a war with us?"

Lu Yunchuan handed over the military love letter with the official seal of Yubei Jiedu envoy and Qi Chaoce's private seal, and said in a deep voice, "After many provocations and temptations, I can't bear it anymore. This military report is in a hurry, and there is no victory or defeat. It can be seen that something happened. Sudden."

"From Yubei to Yijing, it will take six to seven days, even if the post station is urgent." Su Jinhuai said, "At this moment, we don't know how the outcome will be, but what should be given must not be less. There must be places where money is used in battle."

Xing Ye echoed: "What Su Gong said is that fighting a war is like eating money. The national treasury is considered to be rich at the moment, and the soldiers are on the front line, so they cannot be short-changed."

All of you here are smart people, not like Lu Zuoxian and Ge Tongqian, they discussed this matter in a few words.

"After dawn, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry will count the silver and weapons. The grain and grass will be delivered from Jiangdong, escorted by the Ministry of War, and must be delivered to the Changyuan battlefield as soon as possible." If we move, Lingxi should also prepare for the battle, in case of a surprise attack by the Shago tribe."

"Your Majesty is right." Qi Yanxing's expression darkened, "The internal turmoil in Yijing has been calmed down, how can foreign enemies be allowed to rampant! If it hadn't been for treacherous ministers who misled the country these years, all the ministries in northern Xinjiang should have bowed their heads to our beams!"

Ming Wanzhao knew that there would not be peace between Beijiang and Daliang for too long, so he was not panicked. Seeing that the matter had been settled, he said: "It's still early, and there are still some hours before the morning court. The three of you will rest in the palace. Come down."

All three should be.

Ming Wanzhao did not go back to the Qihua Palace, but took a rest in Chengming Pavilion, Lu Yunchuan naturally accompanied him, and said softly: "Qi Chaoce has been fighting with the Chinu tribe for so many years, so he won't suffer at the hands of these barbarians. "

"I know." Ming Wanzhao leaned on the soft bed, completely lost sleepiness, and said, "Lu Yunchuan, do you believe me?" Lu Yunchuan didn't know why he asked this question, but still replied, "I'm already sleeping on your couch. , who do you believe if you don’t believe me?”

Ming Wanzhao pursed his lips and was silent for a while, before he said softly: "You said that in the past, the soldiers in the west of the mausoleum wore single clothes in winter and had no rice to cook. At that time, treacherous officials were in power, and the emperor had nothing to do, but now it is my own government."

"I assure you, even if all officials in the court and central government cut down on food and clothing, there will be no shortage of frontier soldiers."

The emperor's promise is clearly and solemnly promised.

"This is a large sum of money." Lu Yunchuan stroked Fuming Wanzhao's slightly cool fingertips, and then warmed them in his palm, "The aristocratic family claims to have occupied Yijing for thousands of years, and it's time for them to bleed when foreign enemies are present. "

Ming Wanzhao looked at him with downcast eyes, a little tiredness appeared between his brows and eyes, and he spoke softly: "Let's wait for news from Yu Bei."

Lu Yunchuan knew that he was really tired. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Daliang, who had been eaten away by the family until now, was waiting for prosperity. Ming Wanzhao was busy with political affairs and hadn't slept for an hour tonight. Get up.

He was even afraid that such a heavy girder would crush the thin and frail Son of Heaven.

"Yubei has Qi Chaoce to take care of it, Azhao, you should rest." Lu Yunchuan was a little helpless, and seemed to be coaxing him, "It's hard to get to this day, if you are exhausted, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Ming Wanzhao smiled silently, and whispered like a whisper: "It's resting."

Lu Yunchuan was a little distressed, he had no choice but to hug him, stroked the thin back, and couldn't hide the pity in his eyes, he said: "There are so many courtiers below, isn't it just for running errands? You are a big man, you do everything by yourself, even if you are exhausted, you will not be able to keep busy."

"I know." Ming Wanzhao was rarely obedient, and restrained his indifferent and self-sufficient appearance of a monarch, snuggling in Lu Yunchuan's arms, and said softly, "Let me rely on you, don't make noise."

"..." Lu Yunchuan sighed silently, but didn't open any more, only kissed the corner of the little emperor's eyes lightly.

Chinu and Yubei really started fighting, and all the ministers in the early court heard about it, and there were many people who were afraid of war, saying: "Yijing has just undergone a palace change, and has not recovered its vitality. This is definitely not the time to fight Chinu!"

Ming Wanzhao sneered in public, stretched out his hand and dragged his chin, and the diadem was shaken, cold eyes seeped from it.

"Isn't it the time? The iron hooves of Beijiang have stepped into the territory of Daliang. Do we have to wait until the people of Beijiang hit outside Lingyang Pass! Just like in the past, it is time to fight back when we step on the power of our great power?" The resounding resounded in Chaolu Hall, Ming Wanzhao sat up straight suddenly, his eyes swept over the officials as if they were real, and he spoke loudly in the silence.

"The soldiers in Yubei are fighting with their lives. If there is a peacemaker, go to the front line and speak to the enemy! Say it to the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles!"

The peacemaker didn't dare to make a sound anymore, for fear that the young emperor would order him to throw him to the Yubei battlefield.

The emperor in front of him looked too young, but no one dared to underestimate this young emperor who had endured for 20 years without leaking water. When he publicly beheaded Wu'an Hou Yue Tinggu, he had already made all the officials fear and respect him.

After a while, Qi Yanxing lifted up his official robe and knelt down first, and said loudly: "Mingliang, Jiangshan, don't give up an inch of land to the barbarians!"

The civil servants headed by Su Jinhuai also knelt down and shouted: "Mingliang, Jiangshan, don't give up an inch of land!"
