Raise an emperor as a villain

"At the beginning, Zhan Taihong wanted you to go to his side, but I blocked it. Because I want to implement the New Deal, I need the military forces in the capital to support me, so I keep you here. This time I encountered a crisis , I want you to come forward again..." Lu Hengxiu confessed his "evil deeds" to himself, but Ning Yuanhang interrupted him.

"My lord, please don't say that. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't know where I am now. My lord has saved my life, so I don't need to mention these details." Ning Yuanhang said excitedly. He knew from the beginning that Lu Hengxiu was like this. The purpose of promoting himself is to balance the power of the court, but he is not angry because he is being used, but happy that he is valuable and can help.

"My lord, I came here today to tell you that tomorrow I will take the initiative to ask the emperor for orders to go to the army to relieve my lord's urgent needs."

Lu Hengxiu remained silent, he had nothing to say, although he didn't want Ning Yuanhang to leave from the bottom of his heart, but he had to make a sacrifice.

After a long while, Lu Hengxiu said, "Okay, but don't wait for tomorrow, you will return to the palace tonight to Bingming Emperor, and I will try my best to recommend you tomorrow morning."

"Yes, then I'm leaving."

"Come back to my mansion in a few days. I'll hold a banquet for you to practice, and you and I will never get drunk." Just as Ning Yuanhang was about to walk out, Lu Hengxiu suddenly stopped him and said.

"Okay." Ning Yuanhang agreed with a smile, but he came a few times later, but he didn't see Lu Hengxiu.

Hongyu told him that Lu Hengxiu stayed in the palace, and sometimes it happened like this, Mr. Lu would stay in the palace for half a month without returning home.Sometimes I will send someone to send a letter back, and sometimes there is no news at all when I am busy.

"I'm really sorry, but I let General Ning make your trip in vain again." Hongyu said awkwardly.

"It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Lu's heart is attached to the country, I can understand, then I won't bother Madam." Ning Yuanhang turned his head and left, and came back halfway, "I'll keep this jar of wine, save it I'll take it again next time, if Master Lu comes back, please send someone to let me know."

Ning Yuanhang left behind his 50-year-old daughter Hong, but in the end he never found a chance to have a drink with Lu Hengxiu.When the Lu family sent people to look for him, it happened that he had to go to the Peking University Camp to inspect the military affairs, so the two sides had to let this opportunity go.

On the day of the expedition, the emperor personally brought hundreds of officials to practice for him, and he was flattered by the greatness of the emperor's grace.

"I personally offer you a toast, and wish you a triumphant return in advance."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ning Yuanhang raised his neck and drank a large bowl of wine, and when the wine was hot in his ears, he also gave birth to a bit of arrogance.He felt that going to Guanshan was not a hard job, but being able to leave this cloudy and treacherous capital made him feel happy.

He has a pure mind, and it is a bit strenuous to walk around in this capital city full of traps. On the contrary, it is more enjoyable to fight in the desert and the long river, where the sky is high and the sea is wide.

"The queen of the horse has peach blossoms and the snow before the horse, and I won't turn back when I leave the customs." He knew that he would bid farewell to the wealth and wealth of the capital, but after experiencing it once, he didn't miss power, fame and fortune.It's just that there is one person who is deeply trapped in the mud of the capital, which makes him worry uncontrollably.

Ning Yuanhang glanced at Lu Hengxiu who was standing behind the emperor, opened his mouth and did not speak.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's go back, the army should set off." Lu Hengxiu reminded, and brought all the officials back to the city with Ming Jue.

Ning Yuanhang also set off with a mighty army.

"Official circles are far more dangerous than battlefields. Hidden arrows are always more vicious than open swords. Let adults be careful in the future." That night, Ying Shisan brought Ning Yuanhang's words, "He has no time to talk, so he just entrusts his subordinates to adults." With this sentence."

It turned out that Lu Hengxiu sent Ying Shisan to follow him to say goodbye to Ning Yuanhang for him. His status is not good and he has a close relationship with generals, so he adopted such a compromise method.

"Thanks for your hard work, Thirteen, he is also a caring person, alas~" Lu Hengxiu sighed, and couldn't tell what it was like.He has sacrificed too many people along the way, it stands to reason that he should have been numb by now.

Lu Hengxiu suppressed his chaotic thoughts and uneasy conscience, and soon threw himself into the struggle with the opposition. Ning Yuanhang's expedition eased the most acute contradictions of the New Deal and won him a rare breathing opportunity.He must step up the implementation of the New Deal.

Ning Yuanhang went for more than half a month, and won the first battle. Although it was not a particularly big victory, it played an encouraging role.Gradually, Mobei's decline was restored, and Lu Hengxiu further consolidated his power in the court, suppressing the opposition who had danced so hard before, and was in the limelight for a while.

one year later.

It has been a few days since the news of Mobei's great victory in the war came back, but Lu Hengxiu always felt a little uneasy in his heart.He has been restless for a few days, and now it's three o'clock and he still can't fall asleep, so he leans over the desk to read the official documents, and after looking at them, he can't help but pick up the good news from Mobei.

General Ning Yuanhang retreated outside the pass, killed tens of thousands of enemies, captured the Mongolian prince and a group of nobles, captured three major grain warehouses, and thousands of cattle and sheep...

The faint candlelight shone on the yellowed paper, every stroke was undoubtedly written by that person, there was really nothing to worry about.It would only be one month at most, and that man should return to Beijing triumphantly with a mighty army.

Reassuring himself in this way, Lu Hengxiu felt drowsy gradually, so he wanted to lie down on the desk and take a nap for a while, and unconsciously fell into a drowsy sleep.

While sleeping, he suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and he couldn't help feeling chills all over his body. Lu Hengxiu woke up in a jerk, and saw the window was wide open, and was kept opening and closing by the night wind.

He got up and closed the window, intending to clear the table and case before returning to the room to rest, but when he turned around, the window behind him was blown open again.At this moment, half of the candles in the room were blown out. Lu Hengxiu fixed the window, went back and lit a few lamps again, and was shocked to find a person appeared in front of him.

"General Ning?" Lu Hengxiu was shocked when he saw him suddenly, but he didn't know how to react. "When did you return to Beijing? Why did you come back so fast? I don't even know anything about it."

"I've just come back tonight. If I miss Master Lu, I'll take a look at him first. You can leave now after you've finished."

"Hey?! What are you talking about? There's no reason to leave as soon as you arrive. I'll ask someone to serve you tea."

"Don't bother, I have a few words to say to the adults, and I really have to leave after I finish."

Lu Hengxiu also sensed something was wrong, and seeing Ning Yuanhang insisted so much, he sat down with him.

"You said."

"Although the scourge in Mobei has been settled, it may not be a peaceful world. The scourge of the Xiao Ming Dynasty is not outside but inside!"

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Hengxiu didn't understand what Ning Yuanhang meant. Now that the power of the government is in his hands, and the implementation of the New Deal is going smoothly, what troubles are there in the court?

"Your Excellency, be careful of the people around you, and be careful of the people around you, Your Majesty."

"Who are you talking about?" Lu Hengxiu anxiously grabbed Ning Yuanhang's arm and asked, he was very strange today.However, when he grasped it, his heart jumped even more. Ning Yuanhang's hand didn't even have a trace of warmth, it was as cold as a living thing.

Ning Yuanhang didn't answer Lu Hengxiu's question, but just shook his head and shook off Lu Hengxiu's hand, then stood up and took two steps back to distance himself from him, saying: "Peach blossoms after the horse, snow before the horse, and you won't turn back when you leave the customs. Don't forget about it, my lord."

What he said was muddled, not like seeing each other after a long time, but like he was leaving.Lu Hengxiu wanted to ask clearly, but when he came back to his senses, he saw that there was no one in the room, so he hurried out the door. The dim lights in the courtyard flickered in the wind, and there was no one left.

"General Ning, General Ning..." Lu Hengxiu shouted twice, and the only response was the rustling night wind.

"My lord... My lord..." A gentle female voice called him, Lu Hengxiu woke up from a nightmare, half of his body was numb from sleep, and realized that everything was just a dream of his own.

"Did your lord have a nightmare? It was really scary just now." When Hongyu came in, Lu Hengxiu stretched out his hands and shouted, kicking his feet wildly, apparently caught by the nightmare.

"It turned out to be a dream, huh~" Lu Hengxiu took a deep breath
