The cannon fodder is back [Quick Transmigration]

In the tent of the commander of the northern border garrison.Ying Chen sat on top of the main seat, while Yan Dan and his son sat below Ying Chen respectively.

"The victory in this battle is thanks to the prince." Yan Dan sighed, looking at Ying Chen with eyes full of admiration, "It's just that the officials should report this matter to the capital according to the rules."

Yan Dan paused for a moment, his brows were slightly frowned, and he felt a little melancholy in his heart.

This battle caught them by surprise. Without Ying Chen's guidance, even if they could hold this place, they would have suffered heavy losses in the end.If it is a report, Ying Chen's existence must be written truthfully. Maybe he can hide his identity and write it as a soldier, but after all, there is such a person that cannot be concealed.This is tantamount to exposing him to the light, which is too risky.But if they don't report it, they can't hide what happened in the northern border.

Considering various forms, Yan Dan couldn't make up his mind for a while.He has only just come into contact with Ying Chen, and in detail, he has no idea of ​​the temperament of the master he chooses to follow.

"You don't need to worry too much, the general, just report the truth, just hide my identity in the report, I'm just a commoner, the general understands."

"Yes." Yan Dan cupped his hands, "I understand."

He understood what Ying Chen meant after being an official for many years, it was nothing more than downplaying the opponent's sense of presence in this battle, but with so many people watching on the battlefield, it might be difficult to hide it from the emperor's eyes and ears.

Thinking of the series of possible follow-up situations, Yan Dan felt a headache. He is just a general, and although intrigue is common, it is indeed not what he is good at.

Ying Chen took Yan Dan's concerns into consideration, but he never thought of hiding them completely, he had to have a reason to return to the capital, no matter what the reason was, and no matter what identity he came to Beijing with.

Whether it is a commoner or a powerful person, it is enough for him to achieve his goal.

Waved his hand to let Yan Dan and his son back down. Ying Chen watched the back of the two leaving, and waited until the two completely disappeared from sight. Xia Hong poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Ying Chen, waiting for Ying Chen to calm down. After holding it back, Xia Hong bowed and took a step back.

"Master, if it is exposed at this moment..." Xia Hong still hesitated, this move was still too risky for them.

Ying Chen lowered his head and stared at the surface of the water where the tea cover was wiped off, with a slight smile on his lips, and what he said was a little mocking: "So what if you are exposed, so what if you don't, it's just that the process has changed, but the result is Same."

"What's more, do you think the person sitting on the dragon chair can really find out? Doubt... maybe there is, and it's just a trial or two."

The military report was quickly sent to the capital. On the way to wait for the reply, Ying Chen became familiar to the soldiers, making them remember him as a new military adviser successfully, and gained a lot of goodwill.

A few days later, the new imperial censor, a celebrity beside the emperor, came to the barracks with an imperial decree of rewards.

Yan Dan looked at Su Yushi standing in front of him, with a friendly smile on his face, speaking in an official tone with the visitor.

"General Yan, you're being polite. I'm just grateful for the favor of the Holy Majesty, and I have the opportunity to come and see the lives of the soldiers." Su Ming took the imperial decree that was being held upright in the hands of the attendant, facing Yan Dan with a little disdain in his eyes, "In terms of merit, General Yan's hard work is the most important. No, after receiving the good news, the Holy Majesty asked the subordinate officials to bring rewards to reward the soldiers."

"This... this is true." With a hearty smile on Yan Dan's face, he bowed his hands to Su Ming and said, "This is our duty. I am here to thank the emperor for your kindness on behalf of all the soldiers."

"General, don't worry too much, the Lord knows the punishment, don't you think so?" Su Ming looked at Yan Dan with a half-smile, no one knew what the other party meant.

"Of course." Yan Dan nodded slightly and agreed.

Su Ming looked at him silently, trying to see from Yan Dan's face whether he was telling the truth. He came here with a mission this time, not just passing on a message.

The Holy Majesty suspects that Yan Dan has a heart of disobedience. It is said that the news came from the hidden guards, and I don't know where he got it from. Those people always seem to be elusive.

This time, in addition to bringing rewards, the Holy Majesty also hoped that Yan Dan could return to the capital to report on his duties. When he arrived in the capital, it would not be that simple for him to return to the northern border.

Of course, Yan Dan, as the general guarding the northern border, wanted him to return to the capital. It was not that easy. The Holy One knew this, so he gave him another order.

If Yan Dan was unable to return to Beijing, he would let his son Yan Zheng take his place, but it is hard to say whether it will be a Hongmen Banquet at that time, and it is beyond their ability to ask.It's not good for them as courtiers to think too much about the mind of the Holy Majesty.

After staring at Yan Dan for a while, Su Ming couldn't see anything from his face. He cursed the old fox in his heart, then retracted his scrutiny, and unfolded the imperial decree in his hand.

"Following the fate of heaven, the emperor said: Because General Yan Dan led the soldiers in the northern border to fight bravely and defeat the enemy army, he won the sincerity. I will go to Beijing today to receive the reward. I respect you."

Su Ming handed over the imperial decree in his hand, lifted Yan Tan who was kneeling on the ground, and smiled.

"Congratulations to General Yan, this is a great honor."

Yan Dan lowered his eyes: "What Master Su said is that he is just busy with the affairs of the lower officials, and I am afraid that he will fail the good intentions of the Holy One."

Yan Dan's answer was within Su Ming's expectation. Since the founding ancestors of the country, the Yan family in the northern border has a tradition of refusing to return if something happens. This is why they set their target on Yan Zheng. It is a privilege that comes from the Yan family's ancestors.

It has only been a few years since the Holy Majesty officially ascended to the throne. Although he has hated this privilege held by the Yan family for a long time, he is still not fully sure that he can abolish it in one fell swoop. There is nothing he can do about it.

"General Yan's words are serious. It's just a good intention from the Holy Spirit, but the general rejected it. This..." Su Ming smiled slightly, "It seems a bit unreasonable, isn't it? General Yan, don't you think so?"

Yan Dan looked at the playful expression on Su Ming's face, fell silent for a while, and smiled politely at others, but thought about the meaning of Su Ming's words in his heart.

It seems that this does not mean asking him to return to Beijing, there is still room for negotiation, but the other party's words do not lack the meaning that he must go to Beijing. If the meaning of this sentence is followed, they must go alone, and this The status of a person cannot be low, and he looked at Su Ming strictly, unable to guess who the other party wanted to go.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Yan Dan had already thought of something, Su Ming had a decent smile on his face, and he seemed to explain his doubts kindly: "General Yan, you must understand the meaning of this. If you don't have anyone in mind , I have someone to choose here, Xiaguan."

"Your Majesty heard that your only son and a little brother contributed a lot to this great victory. If you can't return to Beijing, sending these two people is probably enough to express the hearts of the soldiers in the northern border to the Holy Majesty." Su Ming nodded slightly at him, and turned his back to him, "You might as well think about it carefully, and give the next official a reply in three days, and the next official will take his leave first, and the next official will wait for the general at the Jiuwei Building."

Yan Dan bowed to bid farewell, and after the person left, he glanced at the direction the person was leaving, frowned slightly, turned around and returned to Ying Chen's tent, just as he was about to be notified, a figure walked out of the tent.

Xia Hong opened the curtain of the tent and nodded to him: "General Yan, you are back, the master is here to invite you."

When Yan Dan entered the camp, he saw a chessboard in Ying Chen's hand, holding a black chess piece in his hand, thinking about the next move.

Yan Dan bowed respectfully, and waited at the side under Ying Chen's signal, lowering his head and thinking about how to report what happened just now.

The camp suddenly fell into silence, except for Ying Chen's occasional chess pieces colliding on the board, only the sound of Xia Hong intermittently changing the tea was left.

When the last chess piece fell, Bai's defeat was decided, Xia Hong put away the game, and Ying Chen took a sip of tea: "I already know the purpose of General Yan's coming, and returning to Beijing is only a matter of time, as for Little General Yan ..."

"It's General Yan's family affairs, it's inconvenient for me to participate, the general is in charge."

There is nothing that Yan Dan doesn't understand about the meaning of Ying Chen's words. This master has thought of it a long time ago. Thinking of this, Yan Dan can only bow and say: "Young son is young and vigorous, so it's good to go out for some experience. This time The trip to the capital is inevitable, and it is a great honor for Quanzi to have the honor to accompany His Highness."

"So it will be as the general wishes." Ying Chen faced him with a smile.

The two of them settled Yan Zheng's future arrangements in a few words, and Yan Zheng, who was still resting in his tent, didn't know anything about it.When he received the news, it was already close to departure, and he couldn't help it even if he had any opinions.It's just that he himself didn't have much opinion, but he was a little apprehensive when facing Ying Chen.

Who would have thought that he had guessed all kinds of possibilities for Ying Chen's identity, but the other party was the person he least expected. The more he knew about the Prince Regent, the more complicated his senses towards the Prince Regent became. He was really respectful and afraid.

No matter how disturbed Yan Zheng was, he had no reason to refuse. He had to leave for both public and private trips, but as soon as he stepped into the carriage, he involuntarily shrank to the corner farthest from Ying Chen, trembling uncontrollably. Dare to do more.

Ying Chen looked at the restrained Yan Zheng who wished to disappear from his eyes, wanted to tease him, and said with a smile: "Little General Yan, am I scary?"

Hearing Ying Chen's question, Yan Zheng didn't have time to think about his meaning in his mind, his body sat upright by reflex, and a forced smile appeared on his face: "No, how could it be?"

"Really? Then what are you doing sitting so far away?" Ying Chen asked jokingly, wanting to see how Yan Zheng would answer.

Yan Zheng's mind was spinning wildly, but he had no idea: "This...then what..."

Seeing his performance, Ying Chen chuckled and waved to Xia Hong, who handed a rectangular box to Yan Zheng.

Yan Zheng didn't understand why he looked at Ying Chen, why did the painting style change suddenly, what does it mean?

Ying Chen raised his eyebrows: "Young General Yan, don't mind, I was just joking with the little general earlier, this is considered an apology, please don't mind the little general."

Without waiting for Yan Zheng to say no, Ying Chen asked Xia Hong to open the box, and when he saw the contents of the box, Yan Zheng swallowed the rejection that Yan Zheng just wanted to say, but he swallowed it back abruptly.

A sword deserves a hero. Who hasn't dreamed of being a hero these days, thinking of owning a sword of his own, even Yan Zheng is no exception in this regard.

He looked at the treasured sword lying in the box in surprise, with a tranced expression. He would never be mistaken. This is the Zhanyu sword, which ranks ninth on the world's weapons list. There was no trace of it anymore. Some people said that it was sleeping with its owner on the bottom of the sea. They didn't expect that he would see it here one day.
