Jia Jing, national teacher of the Red Chamber

As mentioned earlier, there is a vast sea between Qianxiang Country and Daqing Country, and it takes about 40 days to get there by boat.Of course, this is very likely due to the fact that Qianxiang Country is located in a remote area with few products and cannot build large ships.According to previous experience in trade and pilgrimage, the population of Qianxiang country is only about [-], so the [-] troops can be said to be the strength of the whole country.

The army had already set off from the capital, and marched on the road for three days, because they were rushing to fight, so they marched in a hurry all the way. If it hadn't been for Jia Jing's elixir, the emperor would just sit on the Luanjia and be dragged before him every day. Okay, bones are falling apart.

That night, after the camp was set up, several people sat in the camp and listened to the military minister carefully analyze the battle report.

To be honest, [-] troops is really nothing, so the few people who know how to do it didn't make too many entanglements in the court. They sent troops first, and the rest of the things could be done on the way.The emperor's personal conquest, and the whole family of the national teacher followed, it was obvious that he was going to grab the military exploits.After so many years of peace, it is not easy to have this credit.

However, it is still necessary to understand why Qian Xiangguo came to commit the crime.

There is a map of Daqing Kingdom hanging on the shelf. Qianxiang Kingdom is almost out of the map in the southeast corner, because no one has been there, so based on speculation and history books, a small circle was used instead.

The Minister of the Ministry of War held a stick in his hand, pointed to the circle representing the Qianxiang Kingdom, and said: "Your Majesty, the strength of the Qianxiang Kingdom and our dynasty is very different, so they will not dare to attack unless it is absolutely necessary. Therefore, I speculate that they must be evil. An irresistible natural disaster."

The emperor nodded, feeling that what the Minister of War said made a lot of sense. "No, according to what Aiqing said, the invasion of Qianxiang Kingdom must have a purpose, how..." The emperor has been the emperor for more than a year, and he has been gradually getting closer to a qualified emperor, so he thought I think this statement is very wrong.

The emperor pondered, but no one dared to speak out. When the emperor cleared his mind, he said again: "The army has been on the road for three days, the battle report was delivered three days ago, and it was two or three days before the battle report was delivered from the southeast. If Qian Xiangguo has encountered a natural disaster, and these few days are enough for them to plunder supplies and return to the sea."

The emperor looked around, the two overseers were silent, the servant was sweating, and looked sideways at Jia Jing from time to time.

What does it have to do with the national teacher?

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Jia Jing tidied up his cuffs unhurriedly, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, I watch the sky at night. The sea has been very rough these days, so I can't get out of the sea, so I think they The plundering of the city is for a short rest, as long as I hurry up, I will be able to stop the people before the storm subsides." The first few days of the storm can be said to be destiny, but later it was the result of Jia Jing's hard work, and his sons and grandsons brought After coming out, Qian Xiangguo must not be allowed to escape back.There are also a few relationships that are seeking to come to the door, all of whom have become national teachers, how can people be disappointed and return?

The servant was relieved now, and wiped the sweat that had already flowed from his eyes while the emperor was not paying attention.

Hearing these words in the emperor's ears, he gave the national teacher a credit in his heart. The emperor didn't ask any more questions, and said: "Since that's the case, let's rest early today and step up the march tomorrow. We can't waste the painstaking efforts of the national teacher."

"Slow down, I have something to report." The emperor's second elder brother stopped him again after the emperor clearly said "everyone rest".When the old emperor was alive, he was always the general. This time, it is possible that the general was replaced by an emperor who didn’t understand anything, or he accompanied a large number of second-generation ancestors who obviously came to gain military merit. After interfering with too many national teachers, he finally couldn't help it.

The emperor boasted that the corporal, a virtuous man, could listen to all kinds of opinions, and it was the second brother who spoke, so he patiently let him speak, but his second brother wanted to say more than one thing, maybe it was because he was holding back too much. After a long time, the second brother spoke out all the thoughts that had been accumulated in his belly for a long time like pouring dumplings.

"Your Majesty's trip is very inappropriate." As soon as the second brother opened his mouth, the corners of the people standing below twitched, and they all moved back half a step.

"From ancient times to the present, no emperor has personally commanded for such a small matter. This kind of war should be handed over to my Ministry of War." The second elder brother spoke a little aggressively. But as soon as he opened the words, he was a little out of his control.

The emperor was also a little unhappy when he heard this, but he thought that I have come out, what can you do to me, so he nodded and said: "Second brother is right, but I want to boost morale, but I also think about it." Take advantage of my youth to see how great my country is, and besides, there will be no danger in this battle, so I left the capital."

The second brother started shaking his head again. "Your Majesty, military speed is so valuable. If it weren't for..." The second brother paused, always choking back the following words. "Our army is already at war."

The emperor's face sank, and the ministers moved back half a step.

Jia Jing coughed twice and said, "It's getting late, let's leave everyone."

Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, the one who spoke was the national teacher, one after another hurried out of the camp, and in a blink of an eye, there were only four people left in the camp, except the emperor, the second child, Jia Jing, and another deputy envoy , King of Nan'an County.

"Why is the national teacher still in the camp?" The second child suddenly wondered.

Before Jia Jing could speak, the emperor spoke first, "National teacher, national teacher, of course you can participate."

"Your Majesty!" The second child said bitterly, "How can this man participate in the military's decision-making, and bring his son and grandson with him, two useless trash!"

This is too much. Although Jia Jing also felt that his son and grandson were trash last year, this can only be said by his own family, and he can't give people a chance to reform.

"Your Highness, be careful!" Jia Jing raised his head, his eyes brightened. "The ancestors of my Jia family also made their fortunes by relying on military exploits, and they were made generals." As soon as the words fell, there were several lightning flashes outside the camp, and thunder rumbled.

"How do you say that?" Nan'an County King hurriedly stood in the middle and said, "Don't be angry, the national teacher, how about keeping the thunder and beating the thieves in Qianxiang country?" He kicked the second child again, and glared at him , don’t hurry to admit your mistake, the face of the emperor turned black.

The second child flicked his sleeves, and said: "Your Majesty, think about the elder brother, the fifth and the seventh, which one has nothing to do with the national teacher, and what will happen in the end!"

Pa, the paperweight on the table was thrown by the emperor, and it hit the second child's armor.The emperor pointed at his nose and said angrily: "The eldest brother rebelled, the seventh brother also rebelled, and the fifth brother is not a good thing! Why, you want to make trouble!"

The king of Nan'an County tightly pulled the sleeve of the second child, the second child was breathing out of his nose, turned his head for a while, strode out of the camp, and said: "At worst, I will guard the imperial mausoleum!"

"Your Majesty, I will follow you to have a look." The King of Nan'an hurriedly followed out.

The two left the tent, the second child strode forward, Nan'an Jun Wang trotted along and said: "Why are you so impulsive, the national teacher is also the one who can blame you, this high-ranking minister is eating his family The elixir produced, and think about the prince who is about to land in the queen's stomach, who will stand by your side."

"National teacher! I think he is a demon!" The second child spat hard on the ground and said: "My subordinates reported that the demon first took the pill and stayed in the house for two days. How can an angry body come back to life! You have all been deceived!"

Hearing the words "you have all been deceived", Nan'an Junwang also felt unhappy, how could he be so easily deceived. "Then you can't say it so directly in front of the emperor, you have to figure it out slowly."

The second child suddenly turned around and said: "If I don't strike like this suddenly, how can I leave doubts in His Majesty's heart, and when the army returns, his family will have military merits, how can I overthrow him? I will say twice if I can't do it once. The emperor only has me as a brother left, if he can't demote me to the imperial mausoleum, then his reputation will be ruined."

Hearing his words, the King of Nan'an became more and more frightening, and wanted to avoid it, but he was afraid that others would hear his words and cause more troubles, so he reluctantly followed the second child, and even went all the way to the tent with distraction and vigilance.

Only Jia Jing and the emperor were left in the main tent. The emperor was still panting, Jia Jing comforted him: "Don't be angry, Your Majesty, Second Highness must be unwilling to be robbed of the position of general." Fortunately, His Highness the Second Highness has held back her grievances for a long time, and said so much all at once, but it is really a bit tricky to talk about him alone.Now it's just a matter of citing the topic casually.

"He is unwilling, he is unwilling!" The emperor slapped the table heavily, and said again: "Isn't it just taking his credit? He has so many military achievements on him, and he is so unwilling to let one go." .”

"Alas." Jia Jing sighed, "I thought that the invasion of Qianxiang Kingdom was not a big deal, but let me practice with the younger generation of generals, so that I can have successors for the third generation of the middle, old, middle and young, and I can protect myself." My dynasty will last forever, but the Second Highness will..." I don't need to say the rest of the words, this way it all depends on the emperor's own imagination, and the effect is better.

The emperor nodded and said: "The national teacher has been wronged, I understand the national teacher." The national treasury is empty, and there are only soldiers sent but not enough to pay for the army. The second brother only knows that he doesn't care about the rest of the battle, and only the national teacher contributed his family property. Compete with each other.

The second child is in his 40s, or is this kind of personality raised by the old emperor. He originally thought that he would only be able to fight, and the rest of his intestines would not touch him at all. Who would have expected that the old emperor would not come to explain it. The wonderful use of the emperor's second child died, and now it has become the situation it is today. It can only be said that the world is unpredictable.

The emperor came out from behind the table, patted Jia Jing on the shoulder, and said, "National Teacher, don't worry."

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, the sea is full of wind and rain, and Qianxiang Kingdom cannot escape." Jia Jing thought for a while, and then said: "I think that they have occupied the city now, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is better to wait until the army is fast." When the day comes, let the wind and rain slow down a little, so as to lure those thieves out, and catch them all in one go."

The emperor said three good things in a row, and said bluntly: "With the national teacher, why worry about the big things not being done!"

The next days were spent on a quick march, but with the elixir of the national teacher and the pleasant weather along the way, the soldiers didn't feel too bitter.Especially seeing that the national teacher healed a horse that accidentally broke its leg within a quarter of an hour, my confidence was greatly increased.

Only King Nan'an and His Highness the Second Highness felt strange.

The King of Nan'an listened to the words of His Highness Second Highness, always felt that something was wrong with Jia Jing, and was distracted by the emperor, wanting to see if he had listened to His Highness Second Highness's words in his heart, with one mind and two purposes, several times he was listening to the battle report He was almost caught by the emperor when he was in the middle of the day; and the Second Highness could be said to have torn skins with Jia Jing, but he didn't expect that Jia Jing would still treat him with the same expressionless face as usual when they met the next day, and felt rather awkward.

Seven days passed in a blink of an eye, and there was only one more day to go to the southeast. The weather had completely cleared, the sea was calm, and it was a good day to go out to sea.
