Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

Chapter 466: Not a child anymore

Pei Shi was surprised when he heard Wu Xiu's words.

At that time, Wu Quanzhong threw more than thirty ministers into the Yellow River and hanged nine princes of Zhaozong in Jiuqu Pond, including King Xin.

At that time, King Xin's son was still in his infancy.

Wu Xiu was the long history of Xinwang Palace at that time.

"Are you sure?" Pei Shi stared at Wu Xiu, this was no joke.

Wu Xiu was stunned and shook his head: "I'm not sure. But he looks very similar to my sister and brother-in-law."

Pei Shi let out a sigh of relief: "You can't do it just by looking at it. You can't do this as a joke. You can't make excuses. Now the people of Zhenhai live and work in peace and contentment, but there won't be any trouble."

Wu Xiu was a little unwilling: "I have investigated and found that Master Lu's eldest son is indeed not the biological son of Master Lu and Mrs. Su. Back then, Master Lu was under the command of Cui Sheng of the Fengxiang Army, Wu Quanzhong plotted to usurp the throne, and the princes and princesses all fled Chang'an. In the nearest Fengxiang, Wu Quanzhong ordered the army to surround Fengxiang. Lord Lu divided the troops and sent the emperor's grandchildren out. I later went to Hedong to inquire and found out that if Zhigao was not in the team, he must have been hidden by Lord Lu. "

Pei Shi frowned tightly.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head: "This is impossible. Your Excellency indeed dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers to send the emperor's grandchildren to Hedong, but you did not join them, but stayed in Fengxiang to fight until the last moment. The city was broken and Marshal Cui fled with him. . And Wu Quanzhong posted notices everywhere looking for him and Marshal Cui, so he had no chance to hide. "

Wu Xiu was unwilling to give in: "But Mr. Lu's eldest son is indeed not his biological son.

"That alone proves nothing."

"But he looks a lot like my sister."

Pei Shi narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Then what do you want to do? What can you do?"

"If he is indeed my nephew, then the throne in Chang'an City will naturally belong to him."

"Why should he? Or what can you do to help him? Do you have an army of millions in your hands, or do you have a lot of gold and silver in your treasury that he can use? Or do you have something in your hand that can answer the call? A capable person?"

Wu Xiu choked.

Pei Shi added: "I don't care what you think. Now Zhenhai has finally reached its current situation. The soldiers and horses are strong, the food is abundant, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. All of this is hard-won. If others want to destroy him, I will be the first to do so." disagree!"

"And you don't have any evidence that he is your nephew. Even if he is, I hope you can think more about him and whether he wants to live the life of being roasted on a rack as you said."

After Pei Shi finished speaking, he went out. I didn’t drink any wine and didn’t eat any food.

Wu Xiu sat alone in the private room. There was a long silence.

Do nothing?

But his brother-in-law and his sister died tragically. His Wu family also died tragically.

Pei Shi returned to the house, thought about it, rushed into the study, spread out the paper, picked up a pen and wrote a letter. He planned to ask his disciples to investigate the descendants of King Xin.

But the letter had just been written. Pei Shi thought about it, crumpled the letter into a ball, put it on the candlelight, and burned it.

So what if we find out?

Today's Zhenhai is calm and peaceful, and now Zhenhai is prosperous. Isn't that what he wants?

Another person might not be able to achieve the current world situation. Just look at Liang and Jin. Now the Liang Dynasty is in the sunset, and Jin is getting bigger. But what if Jin captured the Central Plains?

Along the Huaihe River are Wu, Yue, and Zhenhai; south of the Yellow River are Chu, Nanping, and Shu; further south are Min and Southern Han; south-west are Nan Zhao; northwest are Tubo; and north are Khitan. Internal and external troubles.

Seizing the Central Plains was like being roasted on a fire.

Zhenhai is doing well as it is now. Stabilize the people internally, defend externally, and not be afraid of foreign enemies. Zhenhai develops people's livelihood economy internally, and has the ability to defend against enemies externally. It is a steady and steady attack, just like a paradise.

That's good, he doesn't allow anyone to destroy it.

Pei Shi burned the letter he had written and left the study.

"Where's the young lady? Let her come and have dinner with me, an old man." Pei Shi said to a servant with his hands behind his back.

"It's the master. I'll call the young lady right now."

Dabao, who had no idea that he was at the center of the storm, was excitedly leading an elite cavalry force with his younger brother to launch the final attack on Caozhou from the two gates of Caozhou, one from the south and the other from the north.

Although the two brothers are young, they have already established prestige in the military. Lu Bocheng also carefully selected some people to follow his two brothers.

After surrounding Caozhou for several days, Caozhou could no longer resist. Today, Lu Bocheng is willing to let his two brothers lead the troops to call for formation, just to do the finishing work. It won't be very dangerous.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the city gate to be breached. Caozhou's defenders opened the city gate and welcomed Zhen Haijun into the city.

From then on, there was another Caozhou under Zhenhai's jurisdiction.

"Dad, dad!"

"What's the matter?" Seeing Xiaobao running towards him excitedly, Lu Bocheng was smiling in his heart, but his face was serious.

"Dad, can my brother and I select some soldiers from Caozhou to join our team?"

Dad said that they are still young and it is not appropriate to give them orders now. Without ranks, they cannot lead a team. There are only some guards and personal guards.

Except for some people selected by Lu Bocheng for them, if they want to add people to the team, they have to find people by themselves and train people by themselves. If someone in the army wants to follow them, other generals will let him go.

Whether they can subdue the soldiers and make them follow them depends on the abilities of the two brothers.

Unable to choose anyone from his own army, Dabao Xiaobao focused on the Caozhou army that surrendered this time.

Lu Bocheng looked at the excitement on his youngest son's face and couldn't help laughing.

Looking at Dabao who was following behind, he was also looking at him expectantly, so he couldn't bear to refuse.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Each army leader has insufficient troops, I'm afraid it's not your turn to choose."

Xiaobao jumped up and down: "Dad, why don't you keep your word? You said that as long as we take Caozhou, you can let my brother and I choose people from our own team!"

"You each have more than a hundred people now. Train them well in normal times. If they can fight ten with one, it will be enough." Lu Bocheng couldn't open the door to his two sons.

"Dad! You treat us like children! Which general has only a hundred people under his command!"

"Then you are not generals yet."

Xiaobao choked.

Unwilling to give up: "Dad, you said that if my brother and I made contributions in this battle, you would let my brother and I choose people! You can't suppress our merits, right? Not only are you unwilling to grant us positions, but you also don't give us additional troops!"

Humph, Dad doesn't keep his word.

Seeing his two sons looking at him with accusatory faces, Lu Bocheng had a headache.

The youngest son will not be thirteen in a few months. If he lets him join his team, who knows what else he will do to embarrass him.

If his wife knows that he has sent her son to the front, he might not even be able to enter the room.
