Quick Wear Host, She is Beautiful and Sweet

Chapter 788: Lord Hou is sick and disabled (48)

As the year approached, there was turmoil everywhere, and even the people living in the capital felt a little uneasy.

Those who are well-informed already know that the general who went to the west to quell the barbarian rebellion is dead, and now the court has replaced another one.

This information quickly spread among the people.

"Who is who?"

The people in the capital are all curious, let me ask them who doesn't want to live a good life, if there is peace in the west, they live far away in the capital, and they will have a good idea in their hearts.

Not many days.

"Hiss, why...how could it be that one?"

"Old Xu Tou, are you telling me who it is?"

"Marquis Cheng En!"

This time, the others were also shocked and said strangely.

"Marquis Chengen, isn't that the Marquis who defeated the barbarian army five years ago and lost all the five cities to the west? I heard that he secretly conspired with foreign enemies... If the emperor is not benevolent, look at the history of Marquis Cheng's mansion. In terms of meritorious service, believe them, they have already killed everyone by now!"

"It wasn't that one. That one went back then, and his two sons went with him. The current Marquis Cheng En is his last youngest son. Let me put it another way, the good-for-nothing Marquis...you know?"

"Ah, it was him."

"Collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, why didn't he die together? Is His Majesty really benevolent?"

For a while, the group of people pointed at Cheng Enhou, showing contempt on their faces, and suddenly an elderly man next to him couldn't stand it any longer.

"enough!"

Everyone looked.

The old man said angrily: "How dare you talk nonsense here without evidence? If you are really collaborating with the enemy, how can the emperor bypass Cheng Enhou's family?"

"That is……"

"With the heroic spirit of old Cheng Enhou, he was set up by the traitor and framed to death!"

hiss--

Everyone gasped.

"You young people are just copying what others say, so what do you know?"

The rest of the people saw that he spoke loudly, and there seemed to be raging fire burning in their eyes, and their arrogance instantly dropped a little, "This... please tell the old man clearly."

The old man snorted, "You only know the current peace. If you want my old man to say, if this land hadn't been guarded by the old Marquis Cheng En and the previous generations, the foreign cavalry would have leveled our capital long ago!"

"I was lucky enough to meet old Cheng Enhou when the class teacher returned to the court.

I saw that he had a righteous face, and the rest of them were all arrogant, and they would definitely not do such a thing! "

"Don't you look at these generals now, and those who were sent to quell the chaos last time. It is said that they were suppressed and killed as soon as they entered the battlefield. They are just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags? If you really rely on them, you are probably slaves under the barbarians now. For a slave!"

"..."

The old man spoke loudly, and when the onlookers heard this, they seemed to be convinced by him gradually.

After all, as long as you have experienced everything.

Even though there are many bad rumors about this Marquis of Cheng En in recent years, they still remember it in their hearts.

Besides, if it is true treason, no matter how benevolent the emperor is, how can he bear it for the sake of the world and the common people?

I also blame the emperor for setting up Mingjun's personality.

Someone found the key.

"Then...who spread that rumor?"

Another middle-aged man stepped forward, and he snorted, "Who knew? We don't know about the affairs of these big men, anyway, they are all rotten asses. Are there not many dog ​​officials who take their salaries and do nothing?"

"Then is it possible for Marquis Cheng En to return after winning the battle?"

"I don't know, hey, in the battle a few years ago, the old Marquis Chengen and his two sons sacrificed their lives for the country. Even the younger son survived, but he lost all his martial arts and his legs were crippled. The useless person has changed his temperament since then."

"I saw him once. He was riding on a tall horse and smiling towards us... Ah~ Then he is really a handsome young gentleman. I heard that he was once a young genius."

"Wang girl, I'm afraid you once admired him?"

The woman blushed when she spoke.

"I'm afraid I can't."

Seeing everyone's gazes on him, the man lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the emperor only sent him 30,000 soldiers and horses, and there are 100,000 more from the last one. I'm afraid he doesn't believe in the strength of this Marquis Cheng En." .”

"It's more than that. The grandson of my aunt's second wife in my village is a soldier. I heard that the 30,000 soldiers ordered by the emperor are all old and weak soldiers. Oh, how can they compare with the iron cavalry of the barbarians?"

"Ah? Isn't that just going to die?"

After this man finished speaking, he only slipped his words, how could common people like them can discuss in vain the matter of His Majesty, they tightly covered their mouths, and their faces were full of horror.

Fortunately, these people around are just discussing, and no one has thought of suing.

"Keep your voice down, who knows what the Holy Majesty means today? Hey, after that defeat, the capital was full of people who scolded the Marquis of Cheng'en's Mansion, but if you look at these generals today, which one is promising?"

"That said, it's not easy for the young master... the Cheng'enhou Mansion, which has been transformed for nearly a hundred years, is now the only one left. He was assassinated a while ago, and he survived by luck. But his wife is nowhere to be seen so far, and he himself has been crippled, so he is alone with him... Thinking about it this way, he is also a poor man."

"Those big officials in the capital are doing nothing with their salaries, but now that the country is in crisis, they have pushed out a young master. If it was possible for the young master to defeat the barbarians, but now... hey, no? Find someone to be a disaster for them?"

Hearing this, the people discussing it were all silent.

"That damn dog officer!"

"Cheng Enhou and his family are all good people!"

"Why doesn't His Majesty care?"

"Hush—keep your voice down, let people hear you, this is going to be decapitated!"

No matter how stupid the people are, they also know that their lives are important. Seeing that Xi Mian is hopeless, they feel a burst of despair, and they also feel pity for the young master who went to fight against the enemy with his sick and weak body.

Although there is little hope...

"I hope that the young master can inherit the appearance of his father and grandparents, successfully fight against the barbarians, and return safely."

"Hey, I hope."

...

Those who spoke for Xie Jinglan at first glanced at each other, and there were faint smiles in their eyes. Obviously, they who said these words came prepared.

The emperor wanted to use this incident to completely defeat Xie Jinglan or the last reputation of the Chengenhou Mansion among the people, but he didn't want to be used by Xie Jinglan, and the grievances on the lintel of the Chengenhou Mansion were washed away bit by bit. .

Thanks also to the emperor.

Back then, with the idea of ​​torturing him, he insisted on saving his life instead of killing him.

Now, he crawled out of hell.

The emperor was thinking that Xie Jinglan would soon arrive at the battlefield according to this time. He was lying on Chu Xiyue's bed. The concubine Duan in the past had now become a concubine. Even Xie Jinglan's fiancée was now Let him play with you!

The emperor even thought a little badly, with Xie Jinglan's body working so hard all the way, maybe he was about to die when he arrived at the battlefield.

pity.

Even though he was dead, it was considered to have solved one of the emperor's concerns, but things have changed, and now it is best for Xie Jinglan to come back alive after being defeated.

Then he can use this to completely shatter the last bit of prestige of the Hou Mansion, and Xie Jinglan, who is the last line of the Cheng En Hou Mansion, will also become a sinner through the ages, bearing the scolding and spurning of thousands of people.

He is still the wise king of the world! -

Three days later, in the court hall, Babaili was in a hurry.

Based on the current Xie Jinglan, the emperor knew that this must be bad news, but strangely, he didn't feel much panic in his heart, and still had a hint of a smile on his face.

However, there is still concern on the face: "How is the battle going?"

"Report—General Pingxi won the first battle, defeated the barbarian general Kubituo, led our army to kill countless barbarian troops, and took back Guanju City!!"

The emperor stood up with a bang, his wrinkled face was full of disbelief, "What?!"

...

[The author has something to say:

Starting from this chapter, the young master's career line probably won't be aggrieved anymore, he can cover the sky with one hand, and as for the relationship line... chasing his wife and crematorium XD

PS: This book should be able to go up to two million. Although I have been writing very hard recently, I still want to finish it completely according to the outline I set. I won’t be writing this book in the short term. 】

Good night.
