Shao Yunlang was silent, he couldn't refute for a while facing the two immature little faces.

He? Heartless?

It's true that Gu Yuanzheng was helping him "solve the problem" these days, but that dog obviously enjoys it, okay? Isn't it? !They couldn't talk to the two little? Zai Zai, and they were a little bit helpless to be dumb and eat coptis.

Before he waited for him, he stretched out his hand to pinch Yan Lingxu's face, and Atao, who was standing outside the imperial garden, walked over quickly with a frightened expression on his face. He? Almost knocked over the fruit plate in the hands of a palace man.

Shao Yunlang frowned, straightened up from the low couch, didn't blame him, just asked: "Why are you so flustered?"

"Your Majesty!" A Tao knelt in front of Shao Yunlang, kowtowed and said, "Eight hundred miles to the southwest, hurry up. When Commander Qin was patrolling the camp on the morning of the [-]th, he fell off his horse. I'm afraid... I'm afraid it's going to happen. alright……"

Shao Yunlang was stunned for a moment, he? Remember Qin Jingrong sent him a private letter in the battle report last month, complaining that there was no battle to be fought, her bones were going to rust.

They read the letter together with Gu Yuanzheng. Gu Yuanzheng smiled and said that Master is not too young anymore.

Although the two of them thought so, they both knew that Qin Jingrong would not want to come back. She had spent her whole life on the Shuofeng Plain from the time when she was young to when she was covered with frost.

She can't do without? Qiushuiguan.

Shao Yunlang got up abruptly, strode out of the pavilion, the black clothes brushed past A Tao's eyes like a dark cloud, just? Listen to him? He said in a deep voice: "Xuan Guxiang, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, and the Chengyun Palace to discuss matters! Hurry up! "

Atao quickly got up and ordered someone to deliver the order.

……

Gu Yuanzheng hasn't left yet, so he came back sooner. Along the way, he heard the palace people tell about Qin Jingrong's injury. When he entered the Chengyun Palace, he saw Shao Yunlang's serious expression, but today? The Minister of the Household Department, who is on duty, is already bowing down to report on the allocation of grain and grass.

When he came in, it happened that the Minister of the Household Department hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, although the Marquis of Qin is injured... But the barbarians may not take advantage of the situation and go north, right? If the grain and grass are transported in advance at this time, is it a little too hasty?"

"Master Duan, have you ever dealt with barbarians..." Gu Yuanzheng interjected, "It's summer, and it's a good time for the barbarians to have plenty of water and grass. And the grain in Dazhao has just started earing, and it's the time of shortage? If It's the best time of year to attack."

Hubu Shangshu hastily saluted and said, "Master Gu."

Gu Yuanzheng nodded, raised his eyes to look at Shao Yunlang who was sitting behind the case, cupped his hands and said, "There are many barbarian eyes and ears in the border town. Once the news of Qin Shuai's injury spreads, I'm afraid that the barbarians will make changes. Please also please Your Majesty." Make a decision early."

At this time, people from the Ministry of War also entered the Chengyun Palace one after another, and there was a lot of discussion below. Some people, like Gu Yuanzheng, proposed to elect a new commander-in-chief as soon as possible, and at the same time prepare food and grass, and prepare for the battle with all their strength. We must not wait for the barbarians to come to the door. It's too late to react.

But the people from the household department shook their heads, saying that the wind on the grassland hadn't blown to Qiushuiguan. If there was no movement, wouldn't it be useless?The barbarians were hit hard last year, how could they have the guts to harass them again?

Gu Yuanzheng heard them quarreling, but stood in front of them with a cold face and lowered hands. They met Shao Yunlang's eyes and had a tacit understanding for many years. They knew that before Shao Yunlang called someone over again, he had made up his mind. .

Sure enough, after listening for a while, Shao Yunlang raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows.

Everyone stopped talking and looked up at him one after another.

Shao Yunlang came in a hurry, and he was still wearing casual clothes in the bedroom. The single clothes with blue and white backgrounds were extraordinarily soft because they had been worn for a long time, and his long hair was only tied loosely behind his head, like a young man who went out for a spring outing.

When Emperor Qing'an was in power, courtiers had to wait for him every time he discussed matters? At least fifteen minutes, he would not appear on such an occasion without wearing a dragon robe.

Although Shao Yunlang is dressed loosely now, as long as those clear eyes glance over, the courtiers will bow their heads respectfully, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Tapping the table with his fingers, Shao Yunlang pondered for a moment, before he said slowly: "As soon as possible, the grain and grass should be prepared. The grain and grass for the second half of the autumn water pass should have been prepared, but it was only one month in advance."

Although Minister of the Household Department had some objections just now, he considered the grain and grass reserves in Qingzhou and Changzhou sincerely. It was not selfish, so he stopped arguing and agreed.

"As for the new commander in chief..." Shao Yunlang frowned, then turned to look at the Minister of War, "May Cui have someone to choose."

The military supervisor of Qiushuiguan in the past, now also holds the official title of the second rank, when Shao Yunlang asked about the candidate, Cui Ning showed embarrassment.

During the Qing'an period, culture was more important than military affairs, and the aristocratic families were more willing to let the younger generation enter the official ranks and get promoted faster. However, generals who were born as civilians were often impersonated as military leaders in the army. You are not too young now, and now the two generals Qiushuiguan Tang and Wei will retire in less than two years.

It turned out to be an unresolved situation.

It's not that Shao Yunlang is ignorant of the current situation. He and Gu Yuanzheng have also started to promote some new strategies, but that doesn't happen overnight. It takes at least five years to get a new look.

Seeing the embarrassment on Cui Ning's face, Shao Yunlang waved his hand, "Forget it, let me think about who is worthy of this job..."

"Your Majesty, I have someone recommending it." Gu Yuanzheng cupped his hands and said, "Miss Yuwen's family, Yu Wenlian."

The name sounded a little familiar, Shao Yunlang thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was such a naive girl in the confinement school, and he advised him to take the exam.

The Yuwen family was born in the army, and once fought the world with Mrs. Ancestor. Unlike other families whose ambitions gradually expanded, the old lady of his family retreated bravely at the most prosperous time, and threw all his children and grandchildren to the border. He is a rare person who does not marry with other aristocratic families.

Yu Wenlian is Gu Yuanqi's lieutenant in Northern Xinjiang. Gu Yuanzheng often hears Gu Er praise Yu Wenlian for being handsome, and he should let him out to be his own.

One must know that Gu Er is like a sour-faced monkey all day long, and it's not easy to get a compliment from him.

But Yu Wenlian is young after all, and his roots are in northern Xinjiang. This matter is yet to be discussed. Shao Yunlang was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "I have a more suitable candidate here."

Everyone thought about it, didn't they? Who was it?

Shao Yunlang said indifferently: "I can personally conquer."

Everyone was silent for a moment.

Then the pot exploded, and the two groups of people who were at war with each other just now immediately changed their faces and yelled as they twisted into one strand.

"Your Majesty! Don't do it! Don't a gentleman stand on a dangerous wall? Your dragon body is noble! How can you put yourself in danger?!"

"Now the country? There is no crown prince. After His Majesty leaves the capital, no one will sit in the capital. What's so great about it?"

"My minister agrees!"

Like a hundred? Ducks suddenly stretched their necks and screamed in their ears. Shao Yunlang was dumbfounded. He felt that his skin was rough and his flesh was thick. No? No idea how to argue.

After sending everyone away, he looked at Gu Yuanzheng.

This is the real difficulty.

"Ayuan." Shao Yunlang opened his mouth, and it took a moment for him to reveal the sadness that could not be shown in front of others, "Besides my family and country? Great righteousness, I also have some personal feelings. I want to see Master. You or I should have something Someone to send her off..."

If it weren't for Qin Jingrong's support and teaching all the way, he wouldn't have been able to sit in this position early. If he had followed his immature plan when he was young, it would have taken him 20 years to climb up from the bottom.

In 20 years, Emperor Qing'an will be able to live and die, and Shao Yunting will be able to inherit the rule of law. At that time, if he rises again, not only will his name be wronged, but he will also have many soldiers from Dazhao to fight with his compatriots. Swords face each other.

Gu Yuanzheng walked up the steps slowly, stood beside him and hugged his shoulders, "If there is one person who should go to the border, then the minister..."

"No." Shao Yunlang raised his arms and hugged his waist. Two or three days of cold war made him miss the white sandalwood scent floating on this man's body. He buried his head in Gu Yuanzheng's waist and took a deep breath. Cai said: "I know that being in the army doesn't mean you have to go to battle to kill the enemy. Does your body recover well? Is it bad? It doesn't have much to do with going to the Southwest, but I don't want you to go back to that place again. The knife is cutting... please forgive me."

He? wants to go on a personal conquest, one is to visit Qin Jingrong, and the other is to take Yu Wenlian to fight a few battles to help her establish prestige in the army, just like how Qin Jingrong brought them? and Gu Yuanzheng back then.

They also know that today is different from the past, there is no need to personally go to battle to kill the enemy, as long as they sit in the city, Qiushuiguan's army can be confident.

The slender fingers landed on Shao Yunlang's head, and Gu Yuanzheng gently rubbed it twice, and after a few breaths, he opened his mouth and said, "Go as soon as you want, with me behind you, there can be no trouble."

I thought it would take a lot of talking, but Gu Yuanzheng responded easily, Shao Yunlang blinked, stood up and said in surprise: "A Yuan, you..."

Before they could finish speaking, Gu Yuanzheng kissed their lips.

After a lingering kiss, he stared into Shao Yunlang's eyes, his voice was a little hoarse, "There is only one thing, you will come back the same way you went, and you can't break a single hair in the southwest, otherwise you will be in trouble in this life." Don't even think about leaving Yongjing again, remember?"

Shao Yunlang nodded heavily.

……

The day His Majesty left Beijing was a very fine day, with only a few clouds floating in the sky. The ministers watched them off from the outskirts of Beijing, and did not return to Yongjing until the banners could no longer be seen.

Listening to Gu Yuanzheng's words, Yan Lingxu didn't get close to him outside, it's just that both of them were of high status, so they naturally stood at the front, and at this moment, they subconsciously grabbed Gu Yuanzheng's sleeve , asked in a small voice: "Gu Da... man, why don't you want to take me with you?"

Gu Yuanzheng lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "Master Hou is young, and his skills are not yet solid. On the battlefield, swords and swords have no eyes, and following them will distract His Majesty, which is a burden."

Yan Lingxu: "..."

The little girl seemed to have received a blow, as if a group of small dark clouds appeared above her head, the hands that pulled her sleeves were all loose, and she lowered her head with her mouth flattened.

He heard that clear voice falling from above his head again.

"But your ability will grow every year? Years? Years. When you have calluses on your hands, you can do a few fifty tricks in His Majesty's hands, and you will probably be able to go to the southwest."

"Really?" Yan Lingxu's eyes lit up again, and he suddenly felt that that day might not be too far away.

The officials got into the carriage one after another. Ye Huan, who was at the end of the line, couldn't even see the hem of Gu Yuanzheng's robe, but he was still staring in that direction stubbornly. After a long time, he lifted the curtain and got into the carriage. .

He didn't look back at the small yard that Yuanqi rented for him. He walked around the city, and when he came to a bustling vegetable market, the carriage stopped.

He sat in the carriage with his eyes closed, and the servant jumped out of the carriage to buy vegetables, and put a small piece of paper into the vendor's hand when paying.

The note followed the vegetable vendor to the post station, and was sent out of the capital with a "letter from home" a few days later.

After several twists and turns, the note was already a little wrinkled, and the somewhat blurred handwriting could still be discerned:

The new emperor was suspected of splitting up before leaving Beijing, and this matter can be discussed.

The author has something to say: No knife, no knife, no knife

But after watching it, it’s time to close the tail. There are Xiaozhuang and his two modern sweet pancakes in the extra episode, as well as the story of the little prince struggling to survive in the hands of his own father.
