The Way of Favors

???? On the court, Emperor Jiahe was furious.

The Hu people have repeatedly committed crimes. Ten years ago, in a great war, the Great Wei forced the Hu people to move north to the king's court. He took the initiative to seek peace, willing to surrender to the Great Wei, and offered Liangju gold and silver every year, and made a covenant not to invade. , Unexpectedly, only ten years later, the Hu people came back in a big way.

"This time, the Hu people led 300,000 iron cavalry to attack our Dawei, and the Shaanxi government stationed a total of 200,000 troops. It will take time to mobilize all of them. I am determined to send 150,000 troops from Shanxi, Henan and Huguang to reinforcements. Who will lead you? Is there a suitable person to recommend?"

The courtiers whispered to each other and nominated one after another.

Wang Cheng lowered his eyes to listen, and at a certain moment he closed his right sleeve.

Soon someone said loudly: "The emperor, the minister recommends Qiu Duo, the former Shangshu of the Ministry of War. Master Qiu fought with the Hu people many times when he was young, and he was very familiar with the Hu people's fighting methods. When the two armies fought, the minister suggested that the emperor seize the favor Qiu Duo is the handsome man, but he rejects the Huns."

Emperor Jiahe glanced at him, nodded, pondered for a moment and stroked his beard: "Qiu Duo's mother has passed away less than half a year, and Qiu Duo is deeply saddened. I can't bear to mistake her for keeping filial piety. Could it be that we have no more generals except Qiu Duo? King Su, what do you think?"

Xu Jin stood before King Kang and became king. At this time, he said loudly: "Father, the Hu people led a large army to attack the Northwest Digital Guard at night. Only Suzhou and Zhenyi were defeated and retreated due to the enemy's passing. Everyone led the soldiers to resist and failed to give the Hu people a bit of advantage. This shows that the governor of Shaanxi Guo Lu was able to supervise the army in time and responded in a timely manner. Guo Lu guarded Shaanxi for several years and knew everything about the dangerous terrain. The old minister recommended Guo Lu. Command the whole army."

Qi Chongming, the father of Qi Ce in his previous life, served as governor of Shaanxi, and he was not strict in his imperial power. When the Hu people attacked, he lost more than a dozen fortresses. The military situation was much more dangerous than today. His father was furious and sent him to prison and ordered him. Personally led the reinforcements with the sixth brother. Xu Jin has been in the northwest for more than half a year, and he is very familiar with the generals of the northwest camp. After rebirth, he first withdrew the official of Shaanxi governor Qi Chongming when avenging Fu Rong, and then secretly planned and promoted truly talented people. Of course, he is just a prince, and it is impossible for anyone who wants to be promoted. Fortunately, he changed all of them, so this time the Huren did not take much advantage. The sneak attack failed, and then based on his understanding of the Huren's tactics in his previous life, it would only be easier to repel the opponent in this life.

Xu Jin predicted that this battle can be closed at least two months in advance.

Comparing the two phases, Guo Lu is indeed more suitable than Qiu Duo.

When Emperor Jiahe saw the courtiers' approval, he nodded in satisfaction. In terms of military affairs, the fourth of his sons was indeed the most talented.

Xu Jin did not go back, and offered to ask: "Father, my sons and ministers, please order to supervise the transportation of grain and grass, and to cheer for my great generals."

Cheng Wang and Xu Hao listened, and at the same time stepped forward: "My father and my sons and ministers are also willing to go to the battlefield in person to cheer for my great generals!"

Only King Kang turned his head to look at them, then looked up at the Emperor Father on the dragon seat, touched his nose, and lowered his head.

Emperor Jiahe couldn't help but glared at his hopeless son.

His eyes fell on the three heroic sons below, and Emperor Jiahe thought about it. The fourth child is definitely not allowed to go. That is the prince he is optimistic about. Although he believes that the fourth child will only end the war faster, but what if it happens? Emperor Jiahe didn't dare to gamble with the prince.

The fourth is not good, there are two remaining. It is reasonable to say that the five-year-old is the most suitable, but the fifth has made military merits, and the courtiers will have to have some thoughts, even the fourth will have lumps in his heart. Wasn't the fourth oldest being feared by the queen just because of his military exploits?

"Go with the king. Your kungfu was taught by General Qin himself. This time I went to the battlefield to experience it. Otherwise, it would be just a matter of talking."

The sixth child is the fourth child’s brother, so it doesn’t matter if he has some military exploits.

After hearing this, Xu Hao couldn't help straightening his back, and said in a loud voice: "My son takes orders, and I will never let my father down!"

Emperor Jiahe smiled and nodded.

Cheng Wang patted Xu Wei's shoulder encouragingly, and returned to his original position with him, and Xu Jin also silently returned.

Su Wang Mansion.

Fu Rong sat on the couch blankly, staring at Qiujing outside the window.

It’s today, and her last life was today. She was relaxing in the backyard as usual. She ate her own meal in the evening and she had to go to bed. Xu Jin sent someone over and said that he was coming, and then the two of them ate together and went inside. Just when she was about to get into the bed and wait for him, Xu Jin told her that he was going to march.

He left Beijing the next day and never returned.

Anyway, it was her husband. How could Fu Rong not remember such a day? When Xu Jin was outside, she had worshipped the Bodhisattva with several incense sticks for him, praying that the Bodhisattva would bless her Lord Su to return safely and not let her be a widow all her life. As a result, Xu Jin did not come back, and she was not a widow...

The scenes flashed in my mind one after another, the peony flower banquet fell into the water, and when I opened my eyes, I returned to the thirteen cardamom years, and met him who was out on errands by chance.

The fifteen-year-old August got married. In a blink of an eye, they have been married for four years, and Brother Ju is three years old.

The current Su Wang Mansion is no longer the one in my memory. The Su Wang Mansion in my memory is just a cage. She lives in it like a canary. Today, Su Wang Mansion is her home, and he has led almost everywhere. She walked through and admired them together, and then there was a little brother between the couple.

The eyes were sore, tears fell.

Fu Rong quickly wiped his tears and raised his head.

She can't cry, because she has no reason to cry. When Xu Jin looked back and asked her, she couldn't say that the prophet knew he was leaving, right?

The most important thing right now is how to remind him of the dangers of this trip.

Fu Rong went to the inner room and lay on the bed to sleep.

Dreaming, she has no other way except dreaming.

It seems to be sleeping, but it's just a false sleep. How can you fall asleep at this time?

Brother Zhu was tired from playing outside, and ran back, opened the curtain and saw his mother lying on the bed. The little guy blinked and walked to the bed curiously. Mei Xiang followed, leaning over and whispering: "My son, the princess is asleep, shall we continue to play outside?"

Ge Er stared at her beautiful sleeping face for a while, gently touched her right wrist on the edge of the bed, and said to himself: "Mother is sleeping, you can't bother your mother." When it was over, Mei Xiang was led away obediently.

Fu Rong turned around slowly, tears raining down.

Tomorrow there will be only their wives at home.

Feeling sad, when Xu Jin finally returned, Fu Rong didn't have to pretend, crying silently on the bed with his eyes closed.

She cried so quietly that Xu Jin sat on the bed crookedly and found her crying when she looked at it.

He felt tight in his heart, supported the bed with one hand, and reached out to wipe her tears with the other, calling her distressedly: "Dongren, why are you crying again?"

Fu Rong was about to pretend to have a nightmare, as if he hadn't heard it, and continued to cry silently.

Xu Jin didn't know what was going on, so he carefully helped him up, let her lean in his arms, and took out the veil to wipe her tears. At this moment, Fu Rong opened her eyes. Seeing him, she was stunned, "The prince is back?"

Xu Jin kissed her and asked, "Why are you crying? You have been crying like rain recently, and I'm almost drowned by you..."

"You are not allowed to say that word!" Fu Rong covered his mouth, suddenly unable to control, buried in his chest crying: "Master, I just had a nightmare, I dreamed that the father sent you to the battlefield with your sixth brother. , Neither you nor your sixth brother came back... Lord, I’m afraid!"

"Nong Nong really dreamed that we went to the battlefield?" Xu Jin held her shoulders and asked her to look at him, wondering: "Which battlefield to go? Strange, I did receive the battle report today, Huren..."

Fu Rong nodded again and again, crying with tears, "It's Hu Ren, prince, Hu Ren really entered the army? Has your father sent you out? Then you must be careful. Brother Wei and I are waiting for you..." The more sad, the more wept.

Xu Jin didn't let anyone pass the news in, but expected that Fu Rong would probably remind him in this way, and wanted to take the opportunity to ask her if she had "dreamed" about what happened after his death with his sixth brother. At this time, I saw her crying. In this way, Xu Jin couldn't bear to hide her from her and make use of her reluctant words. It should be reminded, she has reminded, the rest is up to him, she just needs to wait to be her queen.

"Don't cry, I won't go. Father only asked his sixth brother to transport grain and grass. You are just a nightmare. How can you take it seriously?" After trying to understand, Xu Jin held her face and looked at him helplessly. Doing girl.

Fu Rong prepared something to say. For example, let him go out to wear more clothes and cover tightly at night... Unfortunately, he was so unworthy, he cried when he opened his mouth, and heard Xu Jin say he would not go. battlefield.

If the half-falling rain suddenly broke, Fu Rong's tears broke too. He raised his head and asked him incredulously, "Won't the prince go?"

Xu Jin smiled and wiped her tears, "Why, would you rather believe your nightmare than me, a living person?"

Fu Rong was dumbfounded. For a moment, he suddenly wondered if he was really dreaming, and had a dream that Xu Jin didn't have to go to the battlefield. Unable to tell the truth from the fake, Fu Rong stared at the person in front of him, put his finger in front of his mouth, and said, "Master, please bite me."

Xu Jin grabbed her slender jade fingers, and said strangely: "Why bite?"

Fu Rong was anxious, "Don't ask, just bite me!"

Xu Jincai was reluctant to bite, holding her finger and sucking frivolously.

Fu Rong's body softened, the throbbing was too real, and Fu Rong finally believed that this was not a dream.

"The prince really doesn't need to go?" She embraced him excitedly, looking forward to it.

Xu Jin nodded and laughed. Seeing that she stopped crying, he explored her dream again, "You can dream of this war, it’s also a miracle. That Nongnong can dream of what happened in the capital after the accident with my sixth brother. ?"

He didn't leave. Fu Rong quickly recovered his senses and shook his head while wiping his tears: "I don't know, I dreamed that the prince had an accident, I kept crying, and when I was crying, I was awakened by the prince."

The prince has been abolished and will not rebel. If the prince does not rebel, Wang An should not have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Moreover, Qiu Duo on Wang An's side was taken from office by Xu Jin and his son. Xu Jin has been wary of Wang An again, Fu Rong. Besides, Wang An's succession to the throne is meaningless, but it is easy for Xu Jin to wonder why she can dream so specific.

Xu Jin's chin pressed against the top of her head, and a wry smile appeared.

He doesn't leave, and his tears are thick and he immediately becomes the original little fox.

Fortunately, he likes them all.
