The Villain, The Quack, Poisons The Two Protagonists At The Beginning

"The emperor wants to lead the expedition in person? Is this necessary?" Baili Changhui expressed confusion.

Gu Shixian said sternly: "The border defense came to report that Gu Kui's tens of thousands of troops were marching south to threaten the capital. However, the main force of General Tang was fighting Lou Zhen on the eastern front and could not return to the defense. Only by my personal expedition can we defeat Gu Kui as soon as possible. Kui, resolve the crisis!"

In the north of the Yan Kingdom, there are many foreign forces, the most powerful of which is the Lou Zhen Kingdom.

The war between Yan State and Lou Zhen has been going on for more than ten years, with both sides winning and losing. Today you capture a city of mine, and tomorrow I will seize a piece of your land. The fight goes back and forth, endlessly.

As for Na Gukui, his power is not too strong, and he usually only does things like harassing the border and taking advantage of the situation.

In recent years, Yanguo changed its strategy and sent Gukui a lot of gold and silver to buy him off, and also instigated him to find trouble with Lou Zhen.

Gukui was very happy to get the benefits. Although he did not pose a substantial threat to Lou Zhen, he no longer harassed the Yan Kingdom. He would send envoys here every year to give the emperor some local products as gifts in return.

But now, I don’t know what happened, but Gu Kui suddenly turned his back and gathered an army to kill Yan Guo!

"Don't we always have a good relationship between Gu Kui and us? Shouldn't we use troops for no reason?" Baili Changhui also couldn't figure it out. "Your Majesty, we should first send envoys to negotiate peace, and then consider the matter of the imperial commander's personal expedition. …”

"The barbarians have no faith! Peace talks will only waste time!" But Gu Shixian was in a hurry to leave the capital. "Now the war on the eastern front is tense, and we do not have the advantage. If Gukui and Lou Zhen join forces, they will form a pincer attack on General Tang. , the entire northern border is in danger! I must defeat them completely before Gukui takes action!"

"This..." In fact, Gu Shixian's analysis was right, and Baili Changhui couldn't refute it.

In the past two years, Tang Wei's record has become worse and worse, from often winning battles to often losing battles. Most of the time, he does not dare to face the enemy head-on, and will only hide in the city to defend;

And Lou Zhen became more courageous as he fought, and could defeat Tang Wei at any time and break through the eastern defense line.

If Gukui really joins forces with Lou Zhen at this time, I'm afraid the entire northern border will fall!

Gu Shixian couldn't afford the gamble, so he could only mobilize the capital's imperial army to go north, trying to defeat Gu Kui as quickly as possible and resolve the crisis.

"But... the imperial commander needs to be fully prepared for his own expedition. How can just a few days be enough?" Baili Changhui thought about it, but still felt that it was too hasty, "I have to prepare until after the Qiuxi Festival..."

When Gu Shixian heard about the Qiuxi Festival, he felt weak in his waist and knees, and waved his hands quickly: "No need to wait! I will only take 50,000 of the most elite cavalry in the capital, and the food and grass will be supplied from the border. There will be no problem in a quick battle!"

"Only 50,000 soldiers and horses!?" Baili Changhui was shocked when he heard this, "Isn't it too risky?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Guo. The spies have already investigated clearly. The Gukui army only has 30,000 to 40,000 people, and its equipment is very poor. It cannot be compared with our elite." Gu Shixian said that he was sure of victory. "In addition, I can also use Tang Dynasty's If the general has 50,000 more people, he will have an absolute advantage. With just one battle, the barbarians will be defeated and return in triumph!"

It sounds like Gukui's combat effectiveness is indeed not very good, and he will not pose a fatal threat to the northern border...

The emperor just wanted to escape from the capital in the name of his personal conquest, right?

Hiss, no!

Not only that! The emperor also wanted to take this opportunity to establish military exploits while weakening Tang Wei's military power!

That's right, suppress the Tang family! This is the biggest conspiracy of Gu Shixian's personal expedition!

Baili Changhui gradually understood the emperor's thoughts and said no more.

Wei Lang and Tang Yu also guessed it and remained silent.

"This battle is a must-win battle. It won't delay our celebration of the Autumn Eve... Queen, just go out with me and just go out to relax!" Unexpectedly, Gu Shixian had other ideas, "By the way, Wei Lang, you can also find dozens of imperial doctors from Tai Hospital to accompany you for protection!"

"Let's go together?" Wei Lang couldn't help but frown.

Gan, Gu Shixian really has some tricks up his sleeve!

He was worried that Prime Minister Tang would cause trouble in the capital after leaving, so he deliberately took the Queen and Wei Lang with him as hostages!

This move of "imperial conquest" was really clever, so I asked Prime Minister Tang how to take it?

...

Tang Yu did not stay in the palace. She wanted to return to the Tang family immediately to discuss countermeasures with her father.

Sitting in the carriage returning, Tang Yu looked solemn and said nothing.

Wei Lang rubbed his forehead and said, "Our plan...is it going to be cancelled?"

"Huh?" Tang Yu tilted his head and glanced at Wei Lang, "You can't forget this, can you?"

"Yes." Wei Lang admitted shamelessly, "I've been waiting."

"You..." Tang Yu's eyes showed some confusion again, "You were not like this before, you have really changed..."

The former Imperial Physician Wei treated the Queen with great respect and did not dare to think anything wrong.

But now Wei Lang is too proactive...

Wei Lang smiled calmly and said: "I used to be young and ignorant and didn't understand my sister's kindness, but now I have a clear understanding. Why, don't you like the way I look now?"

Tang Yu hesitated for a while before responding: "Actually, I haven't thought about this issue seriously before... I only know that you are the person closest to me, and I am used to living with you... If I were If you choose a man, I will definitely choose you.”

"Ah? That's it..." After hearing this answer, Wei Lang felt a little complicated.

Tang Yu was born cold, and because of Prime Minister Tang's special training model, he brainwashed his daughter to be a queen since she was a child... As a result, she was emotionally different from ordinary people.

"However, I like you better the way you look now." Tang Yu suddenly added, very sincerely, "Yes, that's right."

"Okay, your words are enough." Wei Lang smiled slightly, "Just give me some more time, and I will handle it."

Tang Yu didn't understand: "What to deal with?"

But Weilang didn't give an answer.

Because he wants to kill the emperor!

But this idea could not be told to Prime Minister Tang because he would not agree.

Of course, it is very difficult to kill Gu Shixian. He is a master close to the heavenly realm, and he has a big boss like Baili Changhui beside him...

I wonder if I can find an opportunity to make a move during this expedition?

While Wei Lang was thinking about it, he heard Tang Yu talk about another topic: "Today I got to know Ruan Ning. She is not only superb in medical skills, but also very courageous... The key is that she is also very beautiful, and she also likes you..."

"What!?" Wei Lang was shocked, "What do you like!? Impossible!"

"Everyone can see it, but you don't know it?" Tang Yu teased Wei Lang in a playful tone, "It doesn't matter if our plan is cancelled. You can go to Ruan Ning to practice. She won't refuse."

"Ah! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Wei Lang would never accept a transvestite.

Tang Yu asked again: "You don't like her?"

"Of course I don't like it! I don't like it at all!" Wei Lang vowed, "She is my subordinate! I just let her work for me!"

"Oh...since you don't like her." Unexpectedly, Tang Yu's tone suddenly turned cold, "Then just kill her."

"!?"

Wei Lang was stunned for a while before he realized...

I seem to have overlooked a big problem...

Ruan Ning and Tang Yu are destined to be mortal enemies!
