Chapter 167 The Queen Arrives 56
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the King of Changping!" Marquis Anding saluted despite his injuries. When his forehead touched the ground, his heart tightened and his back became even more tense.
"I, Zhangye, pay my respects to Your Majesty, the Prince of Changping—" Zhangye also saluted with a serious expression.
"Stand up..." Chen Jia raised his hand and asked the two generals stationed at Jiaxing Pass to take a seat, and asked about the war at the border.
Marquis Anding is the main general, so it is natural that he should start first.
He frowned, "I have failed your majesty's trust. I have not been able to drive out the Tartars and enhance our country's prestige. Instead, I have fallen into a difficult situation because of some situations in the military camp. I have no choice but to switch from offense to defense."
It turned out that a few days ago, soldiers in the military camp fell ill one after another, and even the doctors in the army could not find the cause of the disease. They could only try to treat it as a last resort.
To date, a number of soldiers have died.
Having said this, Marquis Anding stopped and his expression became even more serious.
Zhang Ye saw the regent's eyes on him, and quickly added, "We will divide the remaining troops into three parts. One part will investigate the cause of the disease, one part will take care of the sick soldiers, and the other part will guard the city wall to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the fire."
It was really difficult for them to deal with the situation at the border with their remaining military forces.
Zhangye did not want to exonerate Marquis Anding. This incident happened unexpectedly, and Marquis Anding was seriously injured by the enemy in recent days.
The military situation was truly urgent, so he and Marquis Anding reached an agreement and then sent a letter to the Regent for help.
"The general course of events, Prince Changping and I already know. You've worked hard!" Chen Jia spoke slowly. "Marquis Anding is seriously injured. He doesn't need to stay on the battlefield. Go back and rest well. Try to recover as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am not in a hurry!" Marquis Anding replied quickly.
Chen Jia raised her hand to stop him, "Now that I and the Prince of Changping are here, what else is there for Marquis Anding to worry about?"
Seeing that Marquis Anding wanted to say something, she said calmly, "General Huang should be here in the next few days. With the troops he brought, it will be no problem to drive out the enemy. The most urgent task is to investigate the reasons why the soldiers are inexplicably sick. The good men of my Blue Bird Country did not fight bravely on the battlefield, but died of inexplicable diseases - it really makes me sad!"
Your Majesty's grief is beyond words, and this is definitely not a show to appease everyone.
"I obey your order!" Marquis Anding bowed and thanked His Majesty. He sat in his seat silently, listening to some details added by the Regent.
I selfishly made a small comparison between myself and the other person, and then painfully discovered that there is absolutely no comparison!
He became even more depressed!
The wounded Marquis of Anding staggered back to the mansion. Feng Fuliu, who was walking towards him, saw that he looked a little strange and asked with concern, "My husband, did something happen?"
When I went out this morning, I didn't look so heavy.
Marquis Anding waved his hand, "It's a good thing. His Majesty said that I was too tired, so he specially let me recuperate in the mansion. You don't have to worry about my safety in the future!"
As the saying goes, face is given by yourself!
After hearing this, Feng Fuliu's eyes lit up, "That's great, husband!" Now, she doesn't have to worry about becoming a widow!
Marquis Anding was already the best branch she could climb. If he were gone, wouldn't she have to endure the torture of Old Madam An in the future?
Naturally, she would not understand the hidden worries in the heart of the person opposite her.
How long will this injury last?
After the injury is healed, is there really a chance of reuse?
Marquis Anding walked into the house in silence. Now, Zhangye has become a big worry for him!
Zhangye has the support of the Regent behind him, and his position has risen so fast that he is only one level lower than him. After he recovers from his injuries, can he still successfully regain the right to speak?
Marquis Anding didn't know, but with so many worries on his mind, it was not easy for his physical injuries to heal. Without healing, he couldn't get out... It was a vicious cycle!
By the time General Huang Ce led his army to Jiaxing Pass, the Regent had already led his troops to repel the enemy once and firmly defended the city.
The enemy came with great force, but gained no advantage and retreated in disgrace.
General Huang Ce arrived without much greeting. He quickly took over the duties of Marquis Anding, guarding the front line of the battlefield and cooperating well with Zhangye.
The situation was reversed in an instant. Not only did they defend the city, but they also forced the enemy to retreat continuously.
Before, the enemy was stationed 50 meters away from Jiaxing Pass. Now, they have retreated 100 meters, 300 meters, 500 meters...
It is estimated that it will not be long before the enemy can be driven back to their lair.
At the same time, Xingnan led a force to visit the city and beyond, collecting information and verifying his inferences.
Once a definite conclusion is reached, it will be reported to His Majesty and the Regent immediately.
"…This is a poison made from poisonous grass from outside the Great Wall. After taking it, people will feel weak all over, cough constantly, and finally fall into a coma. Unfortunately, the poison is not easy to make, and there is not much left. After verification by my subordinates, the enemy should have sprinkled the poison powder into several water tanks in the military camp."
There was still some water mixed with poison powder left in the water tank. Xingnan took it out, packed it up, and handed it over to a specialist who was skilled in poisons for inspection.
As for why not all people were poisoned, this had something to do with the food in the military camp.
Generals like Andinghou and Zhangye also had their own residences at the border, and their daily meals were basically delivered from their residences. However, in the mess halls that provided meals for the soldiers, a large number of soldiers were poisoned.
It can be seen that the root of the problem should be in the kitchen. There was nothing wrong with the food in the kitchen, but the water source was found to contain poison residues.
It is obvious that there must be enemy spies in the army!
Xingnan acted quickly and cooperated quickly with Fuyun and Minghe. They captured several suspects in no time. After interrogation, they found the spies who were working with the enemy from inside and outside!
According to his account, this poison was not highly toxic and could not kill people immediately, but it was very difficult to make, so he did not have much on hand. He could only sprinkle a small amount of poison powder in a water tank every day in an attempt to gradually undermine the strength of the border troops.
Unexpectedly, before they could achieve the final victory, the strategy they thought was perfect was met with the arrival of two waves of people at high speed, which completely shattered their ambition to enter the pass in one fell swoop!
Xingnan reported in great detail and in a very calm voice. Only he himself knew how exhausted he had been these past few days!
The lady was delighted: "Good!"
Xingnan faced his master's dangerous gaze and retreated calmly. After leaving the tent, he found that his back was covered with cold sweat.
He smiled bitterly.
I don’t know what the master will do next.
Chen Jia didn't notice the confrontation between the superior and the subordinate. She excitedly approached the Regent and winked, "I didn't expect that Wuyang has so many talented people under his command!"
In a nutshell: Xingnan is a very talented person!
The Regent saw through her thoughts at a glance and said with a half-smile, "Xingnan has the talent to be a king's assistant, but he can only be an aide to me. It's really a pity..."
If the lady knew that she went south to rely on him in order to assist her and bring glory to the family again, how would she feel?
"If he is so talented, why doesn't he take the imperial examination? This should not be difficult for him!" Chen Jia was puzzled.
Generally speaking, for those who have talent but no power, passing the imperial examination is the fastest way to success. Why would they be willing to settle for the position of a staff member?
"Could there be a hidden story?" Chen Jia expressed his guess, hoping to get confirmation from his master's staff.
The regent sighed sincerely, "I see that Jiajia is the best choice for me!"
Chen Jia:……
Chen Jia had no way to respond and could only roll his eyes to express his speechlessness.
