"The decree from Beijing is to destroy the entire rebel army in time for autumn."

Qu Hongqi slapped the imperial decree on the table with an annoyed expression on his face

"This year's midsummer is extremely hot. Many soldiers in the army have suffered from heat stroke, and there has been a severe drought that has not been seen in decades in various places. The people are poor. If there is another war, it may cause injustice among the people."

Qu Hongqi said worriedly

Wen Renling did not move. If he sent troops without authorization, no one knew whether Wen Renling would die with everyone. In addition, Beijing had issued a death order not to attack Yanzhou without authorization. Many ministers and generals could not figure out Wen Ren for a while. Jing's thoughts

Wen Shuojing glanced at the imperial decree on the table, but he couldn't see any thoughts in his eyes. Qu Hongqi sat beside him and pulled his hair irritably

"Yueqing, do you know what His Majesty is thinking?%3F It was Your Majesty who ordered me to lead the army in Yanzhou, and it was Your Majesty who later ordered me to attack the Huns..." Qu Hongqi frowned

"It stands to reason that the hussars led by old general Lin can completely wipe out King Jing's rebels, or just stand still. The rebels trapped in a strange place will surrender sooner or later. Why let you and me lead the Northwest Army to cross dozens of miles deliberately?" To annihilate the rebels?"

Qu Hongqi's analysis like this is not unreasonable, and it seems that he is not such a stupid person. He was wrongly blamed in the first place. Wen Shuojing glanced at him with a little appreciation, and then said with a little disgust in his eyes.

"Think about it for yourself, come and discuss it with me after you think it through!"

Qu Hongqi:? ? ?

Wen Shuojing sighed when Qu Hongqi walked out without knowing what to do, and Ming Lu brought him a plate of fresh lychees from the side, and Wen Shuojing looked over with joy road

"Master, eat some lychees, Mr. Wen specially ordered them to be brought to you."

Wen Shuojing's eyes softened. He looked at the imperial decree on the table, took it out, unfolded it and put it aside after reading it. After a while, Wen Shuojing finished his affairs and asked

"Where is Shu Shu now?"

"Return to master, Mr. Wen is visiting the garden with Mrs. Wen." Ming Lu said, he came here on behalf of Ming Shu who was still managing affairs in the military camp, and he did a lot of homework. Among the four of them, his aptitude was the lowest. Therefore, he does not see many things as thoroughly as the other three, and the master is not too close to him

Therefore, this time, we must grasp this hard-won errand

Wen Shuo nodded, and after accepting the lychee, asked him to find Ming Fan and come over to ask questions

After the person pushed the door to go out, Wen Shuo's eyes instantly became deep, and his hand clenched the brush in his hand

Wen Renjing had a good plan, but he didn't know that the other party would use this method to deceive Qu Hongqi

The emperor's ruthless reputation is really well-deserved, even if he knew that Wen Renjing had gradually become a stranger to him, he never knew that he would be so ruthless, let alone Qu Hongqi who had surrounded him before.

Although it is true that Qu Hongqi is greedy for power, he is the only one in the world who is loyal and wholeheartedly regards Renjing as His Majesty. It is only loyal to Wen Renjing, the meaning is of course different

Wen Shuojing's purpose is not in this, and Wen Renjing's swaying will not be too disgusting. The most chilling thing for Wen Shuojing is that he has not let people protect Wen Shu. Wen Shuojing was most annoyed that the promise was not mentioned at all.

Shen Qingshui told him to go back to the mountains and forests after paying off the cause and effect, which means that after he took over the last one, he would have no restrictions on him, so Wen Renjing shifted his target to Qu Hongqi

From the bright side, there is nothing wrong with sending generals to attack the rebels. Now that King Jing is in decline, and Ji Qianjue hated Wen Renling for hurting Wen Shu earlier, he entrusted Jiang Zhuliu to disrupt the situation. It stands to reason King Jing's side has already started to be chaotic, but now there is no news of it

It is unavoidable to make people suspicious. They are located in a barren hill on the outskirts of Yanzhou. The place is surrounded by mountains three times, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The only exit is guarding the army of old general Lin Shangwu.

Now old general Lin has sent a message that someone has spread messages in the army recently, and all the soldiers in the army are excited, wanting to single-handedly go into the mountains to get Wen Renling's head. He himself has never been so humiliated in his life as a soldier. Just as he was gearing up and preparing to send someone into the army to rub the temper of these rebels, he received a letter from Beijing

What Wen Renjing thinks? Wen Shuojing watched it carefully, but unfortunately Wen Renjing calculated that he would receive the imperial decree but didn't calculate whether he would follow the path he guessed

Wen Shuojing shook his head, saying in his heart that he was not disappointed would be a lie. Back then, the three young people traveled together and struggled together. It has long been a thing of the past. Among the three, only Qu Hongqi still insisted on a sincere heart. It's a pity that the person on the high seat didn't appreciate it, and even wanted to see Qu Hongqi die.

If they go to Yanzhou immediately, not to mention the long distance, there will be many accidents during the march

In the severe drought that has not been seen for several years this year, most of the soldiers suffered from fever. In addition, most of the soldiers were resting after a big battle. Not long after the head of the Xiongnu leader was cut off, Wen Renjing was in a hurry. It can be said that the imperial decree has no regard for the life and death of soldiers

Marching and fighting is a waste of money and time. This time, the nationwide battle will not only cost a lot of money. I heard that not long ago, the old leader of the Xiongnu tribe, He Lianxiao, personally brought a mission to Beijing to seek peace. No matter what happens, the people here things can finally be let go

The people in Qingzhou are returning home one by one, and a large number of refugees are coming in from the Jade City on the border. Wen Shuojing has been so busy recently because of this matter.

It is not only to organize the evacuation of the Liu people, but also to resettle the huge captives of the Huns, waiting for the Huns to come to redeem them. The daily meals of this large number of people are also a considerable expense.

Ji Qianjue did not just use any method to persuade the saintess to take out their food reserves, so that they could survive for a few days, but this will not work. Although Wen Shuojing wants to apply for funding from above, the court needs a certain process to issue it

Before the food and grass were distributed and so many refugees had not been evacuated, he could not rashly let so many soldiers march on the road. This is not a big battle, it is killing compatriots!

But the secret letter sent to him by Old General Lin was actually a message from Shangjing asking their teachers to return to Beijing.

Thanks to the friendship between the old general and Wen Lian, when he saw Wen Lian being exiled by the whole family, he felt a little sympathy for each other, and he even valued Wen Shuojing, the leader of the general this time, otherwise he would not have allowed his grandson Lin Qingyu to join the army The Northwest Army, so after learning that the imperial decree was issued, he ordered the entire army to suspend and rectify for a few days

So they led people to send a letter here to discuss at a high speed, and five horses ran away and died before they arrived. Wen Shuojing had asked Ming Lu to take people down to take care of him.

Right now, Wen Renjing is clearly trying to trip them up

If the command is to march immediately, the soldiers in the army will have no food and grass to support them, and under the scorching sun in midsummer, they will easily suffer from heatstroke on the road. If the refugees in Jade City abandon them like this, it will easily arouse the resentment of the people and cause even greater damage. turmoil

But if you don't respect the decree, if you can't eradicate King Jing's rebel army in early autumn, then it is a major event that violates the imperial decree and implicates the nine clans

This is really a good show, Wen Shuojing smiled coldly

Leaving aside what Wen Renjing thinks, there is a venomous snake staring at the situation outside behind this. People laughed out loud, Wen Shuojing thought about it for a moment, and then came up with a countermeasure

Ming Fan pushed open the door and came in, Wen Shuojing put the scroll on the table, Ming Fan bowed his head and saluted

"Has the soldier's fever improved?" Wen Shuojing rubbed his forehead and asked

"Most of them are getting better, as long as they don't get too much exposure to the scorching sun these few days." Ming Fan smiled, glanced at the indigo color that appeared in Wen Shuojing's eyes, and was a little worried

"Master, you must pay attention to your own rest, don't forget to be tired"

Wen Shuo nodded, and asked some about the refugees in the city, and then he let the other party back out. He sent someone to chase after Ji Yan's trace in the dark, but there has been no movement yet

Isn't it Yunzhou?Wen Shuo Jingsi Cableway

At this time, the door of the room was opened from the outside, and a burst of gentle steps came, Wen Shuojing said without raising his head.

"Is there anything else?"

He thought Ming Fan came back to ask questions again, but he waited for a long time before the voice of the person coming, he frowned and raised his head, after seeing the person coming, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face, stood up and greeted him

"Didn't you go to the garden with your aunt? How about it? Are you feeling better?"

He asked several questions in succession, and Wen Shu who asked directly was amused, and he glanced at the unmoving lychee on the table with a smile

"I sent my mother back to the yard. I came here after serving her to rest. She is much better." He replied carefully, his voice as gentle as jade, with slight ripples

"But it's not to your liking?" Wen Shu pointed to the lychee on the table, and was taken to the seat by the other party to prepare

Wen Shuojing followed his line of sight and looked over, the fresh and tender lychees were hanging with fine water droplets and big thorns on the tray, irritating the eyeballs

Wen Shuo lied without changing his face

"certainly"

Seeing Wen Shu raised his eyebrows, he looked over with a surprised face

"It's only delicious if you peel it yourself"

Wen Shuojing was expressionless, his eyes were shining, he bent down and looked at Wen Shu, his eyes were full of heat

Wen Shu blushed all of a sudden, and said angrily, "Can't you talk properly?"

Ever since the two met each other sincerely that day, this man seemed to be opening his heart, and his movements became more and more violent. Sometimes he would still move him when there were people outside, making him messed up, but the other party took the time to tease him he

Wen Shuojing responded seriously

"What I say is true"

Wen Shu's earlobes were red, and Wen Shuojing's eyes were gloomy, and he couldn't help but hugged the other's waist and went to the couch in the back

After a lot of rain, Wen Shu finally let Wen Shu lay in his arms and peeled off the lychees one by one to feed him.

Good times are always so short...
