[], provide free reading of the full text of the truly completed novel!
On the third day of February, the fourth prince Guangshuo ascended the throne, and the new emperor succeeded to the throne.
After Emperor Zhaokang ascended the throne, he dismissed the Uto people's request for reconciliation, thoroughly investigated Xu Xiangyu's party, chased Wei Xuanzhang, the owner of the Xianchang Pavilion, and nicknamed it "Wenzheng". The truth of the Mingshui case is known to the world.
Xu Jingfu has been in control of the dynasty for so many years. He and the people of the Prince's fish and meat have been together. Now that Emperor Zhaokang has taken the throne, the Xu Party who followed the prince naturally will not miss any one.
The only exception is probably the proud pupil of Xu Jingfu, the fourth son of Chu in Shi Jinbo. Not long ago, Emperor Zhao Kang granted Chu Zilan's resignation. After Chu Zilan resigned, he left the Chu family and disappeared in Shuojing City. I heard that someone had seen him at a post outside the city, but probably left Shuojing. As for where to go, no one knew. However, no one saw the stunning maid beside him.
In the yard, Ome is feeding Ermao with the cooked bones.
He Yan looked at the two of them and looked happy, a little dazed.
"Wouldn't you like to nibble on that bone?" someone asked from the side, seeming to sneer slightly.
He Yan turned to God and saw Xiao Jue walked in from the outside. He went out early in the morning today. The four princes...should be called Emperor Zhao Kang now. After playing the throne, he called him frequently.
He Yan understood the plans of the four princes. There are still prince Yu Dang in the middle of the DPRK. Xiao Jue and Yan He are the people that Zhao Kang decided to reuse.
This should have been a good thing, but He Yan felt a little uneasy.
"Having something?" Xiao Jue raised an eyebrow.
"After the emperor ascended the throne, things seemed to come to an end." He Yan looked at the sky, "but those Uto people should not be willing to give up. Since they have been planning for so many years, they have cooperated with the prince Xu Jingfu, and now the prince and Xu Jingfu have fallen. Will they be reconciled? You also know that generation after generation, when the new emperor succeeds to the throne, is the most dangerous time."
With the change of power, the position of the seat is not stable, especially the hearts of people in the center of China are different, and it is the easiest way to be vacated. He Yan has also dealt with those Uto people, how they look, they don't seem to be willing to retreat Sanshe's temperament.
"I know." Xiao Jue said softly.
He Yan looked at him: "How did the emperor deal with those utopian messengers?"
"The prince released those people before, and now part of them have been captured, but the news should go back to Uto."
"You mean, they will start soon?"
Xiao Jue rubbed the corner of his mouth: "Not bad."
He Yan sighed silently in his heart. Although she is a military commander, she does not like to fight, and fighting means bloodshed and sacrifice, and there are no hundreds of wives. Especially at this juncture now.
and……
She looked at the people around her, and the man's gaze fell on the yellow dog in the courtyard, slightly raising the corner of her mouth.
This is a rare moment of tranquility.
After all, she swallowed her mouth, and after a moment, she reached out to hold Xiao Jue's arm and solemnly said: "Xiao Jue, I want to eat braised pigeon at night."
"..."
...
Calm days are always exceptionally short.
Less than ten days after Emperor Zhaokang ascended the throne, the Uto people led troops to attack the Wei, and went north along the Xinghe all the way.
After decades of planning, this war between the Uto people and Da Wei finally started.
The four cities of Jiuchuan, Jijun, Yunzi, and Pingjiang were inadvertently arranged by the princes due to their lack of military power, but they were occupied by the Uto people in just three days. After the Uto people broke through the city gates, they slaughtered the city. According to those who had escaped, the dead bodies along the river piled up like mountains, and the blood stained the river bright red.
Emperor Zhaokang was furious and immediately made people go to fight the enemy. However, for so many years, Dawei has emphasized restraint and restraint. Apart from General Feng Yun and General Feihong, not many people are available. At present, Feihong General He Rufei is still fake, and the military power of Fuyue Army is returned to the royal family.
Emperor Zhaokang asked who would lead the troops to the chaos in Chaotang. No one came forward except General Gui He, General Yan He, and Governor Xu Jue. To be precise, it is not that there is no one, and there are also veterans who are willing to carry a knife to the horse. Unfortunately, he is too old to return to the battlefield at all.
The evils planted by the royal family of the Wei Dynasty for many years were finally revealed at this moment.
In the palace of Jin Luan, Emperor Zhaokang looked at the hundred military and military officials under the steps, and his face sank like water, and sighed: "People are incompetent and cannot protect our Daweihe Mountain."
However, some people came out in a quiet, clear voice, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the Yue army and go to Jiuchuan to fight the enemy."
The woman in the red kimono stood in the hall, looking very tall and heroic. She looked up and looked at the emperor on the high seat, her eyes were clean and firm.
This is Wu An Hou He Yan, and also the wife of General Feng Yun.
Emperor Zhaokang paused slightly.
In the contest with the prince, the Xiao family stood on his side. Xiao Jue was also very smart and did not participate directly. Emperor Zhaokang intended to reuse Xiao Jue, but he could not give him too much power. After thinking about it, he was promoted to He Yan's official.
He Yan is a woman in the end, but now there is only one place. Sheng Heyan's officials not only gave Xiao Jue a reward, but did not make the Xiao family's power so disturbing. As the empress dowager once said, don't underestimate women. Sheng Heyan's officials, in a way, are a check and balance against Xiao Jue.
But Emperor Zhaokang did not expect that He Yan would stand up at this time.
He looked at Xiao Jue subconsciously. At this time, he tried to catch a little emotion on Xiao Jue's face. It's a pity that the famous right military governor of Dawei has a calm look and hasn't seen any waves.
Did he know about it early in the morning? But now that you know this, why not mention it in private first, but wait until now?
He Yan leaned over and said: "Chen and Uto have fought several times, and dared to ask His Majesty to allow Yunchen to take his troops to Jiuchuan."
When it comes to dealing with Uto people, she is indeed experienced. Whether in Jiyang or Rundu, otherwise Emperor Wenxuan would not enter her official. But if we are talking about leading troops...
Before Emperor Zhaokang spoke, a clerk said: "Wu Anhou, you are just a woman, how can you lead troops to fight the enemy?"
"I'm afraid I forgot," He Yan's tone was neither humble nor overbearing. "General Feihong, who was a tremendous force, was originally a woman."
The minister was speechless.
Yes, the real General Feihong is not just a woman.
Emperor Zhaokang remained silent for a while, and said: "This matter is important. I can't decide at will. After I think about it, I can make a decision."
He looked at Xiao Jue.
So far, Emperor Zhaokang was not sure whether Xiao Jue knew He Yan's plan. If Xiao Jue also supports He Yan's decision, then he will find himself in private. If Xiao Jue spoke, Emperor Zhao Kang would consider agreeing that if He Yan really didn't have that ability, the Wei Wei's right military governor would not easily let his wife die.
Of course, the most crucial point is that, as Queen Gui said, the Dawei is gone. There are very few generals with excellent combat capabilities. Even if He Yan does not go, who can?
He smiled secretly in his heart, only to feel that the bright yellow dragon crown on his head was really heavy to wear.
...
After heading down, He Yan went out with Xiao Jue, and Yan He couldn't help but followed from behind.
He stopped He Yan: "Hey, do you really plan to take soldiers to Jiuchuan?"
"Why?" He Yan had something in her heart, looking at the absent answer of Xiao Jue's back in front.
Yan He looked forward with her eyes, thought for a while, and asked, "Don't Xiao Huaijin know what happened today?"
He Yan didn't speak.
"He Yan, you are so powerful." Yan He came to understand and looked at her in amazement: "No wonder I see Xiao Huaijin looking so angry. You don't discuss with him about such big things, play first and then play? Okay, you want to say You can make Xiao Huaijin so angry. It seems that even if you really go to Jiuchuan, those Uto people are not your opponents." He was going to pat He Yan's shoulders, holding his hands up to the general, and probably thinking that He Yan was a The woman, she shrank back and looked at He Yan fortunately and said: "Xiao Huaijin is so angry, Wu Anhou, good luck." After all, he flicked his sleeve and went forward.
He Yan was so robbed by Yan He that she didn't get angry. Today, she didn't discuss with Xiao Jue, she asked directly at Jin Luan Temple, it was estimated that Xiao Jue was also angry. But... there are a lot of scruples, and she really does not know how to speak to Xiao Jue.
At this time, Xiao Jue had already walked to the Xiao family's carriage outside the palace. He Yan was busy catching up and entered the carriage by himself, sitting with him. The coachman drove the carriage, and on the way back to Xiao's house, she raised her head from time to time to look at the person beside her. Xiao Jue's expression was calm. The more calm, the more He Yan could feel his anger at the moment.
He Yan did not speak, she had to think about what to say.
After the carriage stopped at the door of Xiao Fu, Xiao Jue got out of the carriage and walked in without looking back. He Yan jumped down afterwards. Perhaps the atmosphere in the carriage was too stagnation. The kind driver also reminded He Yan: "Young lady, young master is not in a good mood today. Please comfort him."
He Yan smiled and said: "Sure."
After she followed Xiao Jue all the way into Xiao Mansion and returned to the yard, Ome was drying the quilt in the yard and saw He Yan said with joy: "Young lady--"
"Hush." ​​He Yan made a mute gesture to her and followed Xiao Jue into the door.
As soon as she entered the door, she closed the door, facing Xiao Jue's slightly cool eyes.
Without saying anything, He Yan hugged him in the past, "You calm down first."
Xiao Jue stood in the room, letting her hug him without moving, and said coldly: "Don't use the same move every time."
Although it's nothing new, it just works. He Yan sullied her heart, she didn't want to use this trick every time, but Master Xiao Er ate this set, then there was no way.
"Let me explain." He Yan clutched the belt of her predecessor with a sincere tone. "I wanted to tell you, but every time I wanted to speak, I always felt very destructive, and later dragged, It’s dragged on today. I’ll say first, I definitely don’t cut first, then even the first one is the emperor, not you. Today I’m afraid I don’t say, the emperor ordered someone to lead the soldiers and had to speak first. Xiao Jue,
she looked up. To the other party, "I didn't mean it on purpose."
Xiao Jue avoided her gaze, her tone was cool, "Miss He, are you even so deceitful now?"
Even the words "Miss He" are spoken, it can be seen that they are really angry. An excited spirit in He Yan's heart quickly said: "Xiao Jue, you are the main general, how can you be the first, I really did not lie to you."
She really wanted to talk about it, but during this quiet day, whenever she saw Xiao Jue's rare ease, she didn't want to mention these things.
"Well, I'm a bit worried." Seeing Master Xiao Er's attitude is still cold, He Yan honestly admits his selfishness, "I...I don't know how to tell you."
She loosened her hand holding Xiao Jue's belt. If the child who made a mistake looked down at her toes and hesitated, "The Uto people are so chaotic, you are going to lead troops to Yunzi, Yunzi and Jiuchuan are not here. One direction. If I take the initiative to ask the emperor to go out, and if the emperor agrees, I will take the soldiers to Jiuchuan alone."
"You must be worried."
With a glance at Xiao Jue's face, she saw that Xiao Jue was looking down at herself, her eyes lit up, and the man turned sideways quickly, He Yan had a bottom in her heart, grabbed his hand, and looked up at him, With an emotional opening, "After I got married to you, seeing all the men in this capital city is not as considerate as you. What you do as a husband and gentleman is unique, and you must be worried that a lovely wife like me will be alone. If I am true 'S lead soldiers to Jiuchuan, you are afraid that you will miss me every day, worry about me, maybe you will lock me in the house, I am such a delicate daughter's house, I don't see the sun..."
She started to talk nonsense again, Xiao Jue was angry and looked at her: "Lock you in the house?" He sneered: "There is no one in the world who can smash the door lock. "
"You misunderstood me," He Yan pointed to his chest. "Although I look strong and powerful, my heart is very fragile. For example, when you were angry, I was sad and my heart was broken. ."
She now came out without shame, Xiao Jue was said to have lost his temper. After a while, it wasn't salty or lightly spoken: "Do you think that you will take troops to Jiuchuan, I will disagree?"
He Yan didn't speak.
He stared at the woman in front of him, a little anger, but in the anger, there was a trace of helplessness that was not easy to detect. Finally, he turned around: "If you tell me directly, I will not stop."
He Yan looked at his back, only the hippie smiled on his face, and whispered: "I thought that if you were, you would let me go to Yunzi with you..."
"Jiuchuan is close to Moxian. You are familiar with the terrain of Moxian. Naturally, you are more willing to take the Fuyue Army to Jiuchuan." Xiao Jue's voice was calm. "In Yunzi, you can't fully exploit your strengths."
He Yan was startled, he turned around, his eyes connected with He Yan.
Clear, frank, and plain like a mirror, reflecting all her thoughts.
He knew it all.
He Yan paused, re-stretched his arms and hugged the people before him, muttered: "How do you know everything..."
She was indeed more willing to go to Jiuchuan. She had never been to Yunzi in the past. If she went to Yunzi with Xiao Jue, then Emperor Zhaokang would definitely go to Jiuchuan with another general. But no one is more familiar with Jiuchuan than she is. She is not confident. It can even be said that no one knows how to win in Jiuchuan.
At present, Dawei has no one to use, but the battle is a bit slower in Bingjiang. Jiuchuan, Jijun and Yunzi are the worst. Even though she knows her own abilities in her own heart, but cares about chaos, Xiao Jue is now her husband, not necessarily willing to take her soldiers to dangerous places alone.
Just as Mrs. Xiao always blocked Xiao Zhongwu.
"I said," Xiao Jue's voice came from above his head. "Just do whatever you want, just do it."
He Yan raised his eyes and asked, "Do you believe I can do it?"
He snorted, "General Wo can do nothing."
He Yan looked at him awkwardly and laughed out loudly.
What I thought was difficult to make clear, but now it is so plain to say so. He treated her completely tolerantly, tolerating that He Yan even felt that some of his thoughts and concerns seemed ridiculous.
"However, the Emperor may not give me the military power directly." He Yan's smile only flashed for a moment, and he suddenly remembered another thing.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, she even got the name of Wu Anhou with a little light from Xiao Jue. Even in Jiyang and Rundu, there are Xiao Jue and Li Kuang. She has not fought a battle alone. If she directly gave her the military power, outsiders might not be convinced.
"I will go to the palace to see the emperor. The military power of the Fuyue Army should be handed over to you." Xiao Jue said: "But how to convince your people can only rely on yourself."
"What you said is true?" He Yan violently excited.
To convince her people that she has a way, if Xiao Jue can persuade Emperor Zhao Kang, this matter is really a sure thing.
"The emperor did not reply directly to you today, just to see what I meant." He twitched his lips. "He doesn't believe you, but believes me. If I were to guarantee you, he would believe in your ability to lead troops."
"It's a troubled autumn right now. Isn't His Majesty afraid to give me the military power? Our husband and wife have too much power in their hands and oppose his threats?" He Yan made a joke. At this juncture, whoever has the military power will have a chance of winning. Although the prince is no longer there, no one in the royal family can threaten the Emperor Zhaokang for a while, but the military commander has made too much credit... It has not been a good thing to be happy since ancient times.
"The eldest brother and sister-in-law are still in Beijing. Besides, the elder sister-in-law has Xiao family bones in her belly. Within a few years, the emperor will not doubt the Xiao family."
Another piece of stone in He Yan’s heart dropped, but... she looked at her predecessor and asked, "I still have a question. You said the emperor wanted you to come and assure me, Xiao Jue, you believe I will defeat those Uto people. ?"
It seemed that she asked this question really ridiculously. Xiao Jue couldn't help but smile. He turned his head aside and said lazily: "Heaven and the world, whoever sees you is not willing to worship the wind."
Although the teasing is like ridicule, in the tone, it seems to be with proud pride.
He Yan heard this very usefully. She stood on tiptoe and leaned into Xiao Jue's ear, whispering: "One another, Xiao Dudu."
"I also believe that you will win again and again and win the victory"
