I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 100: Rise and fall
Mu Mingtang's long hair was scattered on the pillow, and the beauty seemed to be extremely tired, and even the long hair was too late to gather, so she fell asleep deeply.
The crimson brocade was weakly dragged with strands of black hair, still faintly wet, like a begonia after the rain, bright and charming, just looking at it, it was infinite reverie.
Mu Mingtang fell asleep extremely tired, and suddenly woke up after not knowing how long he slept.
After she woke up, she found that Xie Xuanchen was not there. She turned around with strength and touched the bed next to her with her slender fingers. It was cold.
It seems that he has been out for a long time. Or, it didn't come back at all.
During the curfew today, Zhu Yang Hong suddenly visited the house. After sitting down, he talked about the situation outside.
The east road fell, Yeluji had led a 100,000 army of Chen Bing riverside, and the capital was in danger.
These words I wish Yang Hong must not just talk about it casually, and even if he visits the door today, he is not doing it at will.
Zhu Yanghong served in the Privy Council. Although he was in an embarrassing situation because he was neither civil nor military, he was in the center of power and had close contact with civil officials every day. Since the news of the defeat came yesterday, officials from North Korea and China have been arguing all day, arguing about how to resolve the situation.
In fact, it's not that they couldn't discuss it. After everyone heard the news, an answer immediately appeared in their hearts. However, no one dared to say.
To wish Yang Hong to come to the door this evening, most of it was a temptation from North Korea. Zhu Yanghong has served as a military attache and once worked with Xie Xuanchen. I heard that Mrs. Zhu still has a lot of friendship with Princess An. It is really appropriate for him to serve as a pathfinder.
Xie Xuanchen did not speak after hearing it.
But Mu Mingtang knew that although he seemed calm and ignored the temptation thrown by the court represented by Zhu Yang Hong, he was actually not at peace. He couldn't see any mood swings when he was eating, but when he went to bed with Mu Mingtang, he was a little out of control.
Mu Mingtang was very tired. Xie Xuanchen had been vigorous in bed, but today was a little too tough. Mu Mingtang was tired only the first time. As soon as Xie Xuanchen finished, she fell into a deep sleep.
After she fell asleep, she didn't feel anymore, thinking about it, Xie Xuanchen didn't sleep after the end, but went out again.
Mu Mingtang sat on the bed for a while, resigned himself to his fate, got out of bed and went to find Xie Xuanchen.
She didn't wake up the maid this time, but carrying the lamp alone, she went straight to the martial arts field. The Wangfu West Road is very large, with a special horse farm, martial arts field, weapons depot, and a main courtyard, Zhenqintang, which contains military books, maps, and Xie Xuanchen's armor and saber.
Yulintang is actually only Xie Xuanchen's sleeping hall, and Zhenqintang is his place of external activities.
When Mu Mingtang approached, Zhenqintang was quiet, dark and dull, as if there was no one. But Mu Mingtang didn't hesitate, and directly pushed open the door of Zhenqintang.
The moonlight entered the house, and the illuminated ground was empty and clear. Mu Mingtang paused and asked softly: "Are you there?"
Silent for a long time. After a while, a soft sigh came from the innermost: "Why are you here?"
Mu Mingtang knew he would be here. She was relieved and turned to close the door. There was no light in the room. After the door was closed, the moonlight was blocked outside, and the room returned to darkness. Only the light in Mu Mingtang's hand gave out a small piece of light. Mu Mingtang stayed on the spot to adapt for a while, and after he could vaguely see things, he carried the lamp and walked carefully inside.
"I can't sleep, so I came to you."
The room was drowsy, with weapons, swords, and maps hanging around, as if a giant beast lurked, and there was a silent depression in the darkness. The lamp in Mu Mingtang's hand shook, and in the depressed abyss, only this one was bright.
Like a lighthouse on the way home, but also like a fox fire that deceives people in the middle of the night.
It was silent for a long time, and suddenly I heard Xie Xuanchen smile slightly, seemingly pointed: "It seems that it is still not tired enough. I am afraid you can't stand it, and I will show mercy. It seems that it can be longer next time."
Mu Mingtang ignored his rogue behavior, Xie Xuanchen spoke aloud, Mu Mingtang found his place and bumped and fumbled to him.
Xie Xuanchen was standing in front of a map at the moment, not knowing what he was thinking. Beside him is a pair of silver armor.
The armor was the same height as the person, and at first glance it seemed as if a person was standing, and the black helmet stared at people shockingly. Mu Mingtang was taken aback, and when he looked closely, he realized that it was just a pair of armor.
Mu Mingtang opened the lampshade and lit the candlestick with the fire core of the palace lantern in his hand: "Just stay alone, why don't you even turn on the lamp? The black lamp is blind and you are not afraid of hurting yourself."
The fire core flashed a few times, the light gradually expanded, and finally half of the house was put under protection. Mu Mingtang put out the fire in the palace lantern, placed it in a safe place, and walked slowly towards Xie Xuanchen.
Xie Xuanchen only felt his back sway, and then the darkness faded like a tide. The familiar fragrance gradually approached, and finally stopped by his side, and asked softly: "Since it's here, why not put it on and take a look?"
Although Zhenqintang displayed majesty and oppression, it was useless for a long time after all. Mu Mingtang noticed that many places had accumulated a layer of dust along the way. But this armor was shining coldly and spotlessly clean.
Obviously, someone dusted it off meticulously just now, and even the saber beside the armor seemed to have moved.
Mu Mingtang knew that Xie Xuanchen was probably stuck with himself again. Xie Xuanchen couldn't pass the hurdles in his own heart.
He naturally yearned for the battlefield, which was where his fame and ambition began, but he also used this armor and hands to ruin the lives of his comrades.
Mu Mingtang watched with him for a long time, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Prince, since I married you, it seems that I haven't had anything with you. Can you realize my wish?"
"Ok?"
Suddenly, Mu Mingtang stood on tiptoe, wrapped around Xie Xuanchen’s neck, and said with a smile: "When I was young, my parents asked me what kind of husband and son I wanted, but I couldn’t figure it out. Later, when I met you, I felt that if I wanted When you marry someone, you must marry a world-famous hero like my savior, who can protect my family and the country, and also protect me. Because of this, I have always liked military uniforms. I also secretly learned how to wear armor. Unfortunately, I I can't wear it myself."
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he looked at Xie Xuanchen's eyes seriously: "This is my girl's most daring wish when she is pregnant. Can you help me realize it?"
Xie Xuanchen looked down at her, and was literally captured by the light in her eyes. There was no way to avoid it, and there was no way to retreat, so he could only catch with his hands: "Okay."
Mu Mingtang let go and took the armor from the shelf. Because it was too heavy, it almost fell to the ground. Xie Xuanchen stretched out his hand to hold it for her, but Mu Mingtang shook his head and refused, resolutely put on Xie Xuanchen's armor, shoulders, armguards, and belts one by one, and finally put a scarlet cloak on him.
When she fell to the ground, panic and helpless, almost waiting to die, it was such a young man with a silver armor and a red cloak that fell from the sky and stabbed the Jie Ren in the throat. He killed all the foreign enemies who made the chaos, and his expression remained indifferent, as if everything was what it should be.
When he lowered his eyes, there was nothing in his eyes for saving people, and he didn't even tell Mu Mingtang his name. Mu Mingtang only remembers her heroic boy, Baima Yinjia, with a mole on the corner of her eye.
Now that the young man is tall and tall, the man's valiant fortitude has been revealed between his eyebrows, but his eyes are the same as before, bright and dazzling, and he is moving forward.
Mu Mingtang blinked vigorously, and tears burst into his eyes. Seeing the sigh, Xie Xuanchen gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "What are you crying? Am I still here?"
The youth is not old, the hero is still there. Mu Mingtang's tears burst out, and Xie Xuanchen couldn't finish it, so he had to leaned over and hugged her hard through the cold armor.
Mu Mingtang couldn't help it anymore, burying it in his arms, crying wantonly. Xie Xuanchen's armor was made of fine iron, and his skin hurt when he leaned closer, but Mu Mingtang felt extremely relieved when he leaned on it.
Xie Xuanchen encircled Mu Mingtang's waist and hugged her tightly. Xie Xuanchen’s armband was tied on his hand. The armband was cold and hard. It was engraved with a dragon and a tiger, teeth and claws, and a murderous look. However, now the cold and hard armband bypasses the layers of brocade, which will obviously be the red of women’s clothing. Luo Jinxiu tightened firmly.
He took the saber in his other hand, and the silver guard and hilt reflected each other, reflecting a cold light.
The next day, early in the morning, a message spread all over the city.
Yeluji is about to cross the river, and the court deliberately revives Xie Xuanchen, the **** of war who once stood still.
This morning, a rare visitor also ushered in. Early in the morning, the ministers stood in front of Xuande Gate, all faces were heavy, and suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes behind them. They turned their heads unpreparedly and saw a slender figure turning over from the horse in the morning light.
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise, Xie Xuanchen also said nothing, strode towards Xuande Gate, and people on both sides avoided.
A moment later, when the morning drum arrived, Xuande Gate opened wide, facing the talents of the world.
The emperor was really surprised when he saw Xie Xuanchen. No one in the entire dynasty dared to go with Xie Xuanchen, and no one dared to stand in front of Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen took the place of Xie Xuanji as it should be and ranked first.
After the emperor's initial surprise passed, he basically knew what would happen next. Sure enough, after Prime Minister Song routinely said some scenes, the topic turned to Xie Xuanchen.
The emperor said: "Yelüji watched and displayed it outside the river. What countermeasures could all Aiqing have?"
After the emperor finished speaking, the needle fell in the Wende Hall and no one spoke, but everyone's eyes quietly looked at Xie Xuanchen.
Someone came out and said: "Your Majesty, for the present plan, it is necessary to ensure the safety of your Majesty, or you can move the capital. However, moving the capital is not an overnight effort. I am afraid that someone needs to stop Yeluji and other Rong thief by the river. Your majesty and the princes fight for evacuation time."
Another courtier heard frowning and said: "Moving the capital will easily cause turmoil in the people's minds. When the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy gets out of the way, I am afraid I will be taken advantage of by the military people. The minister boldly offered advice and Tong Shao took away 100,000 forbidden troops. There are still one hundred thousand in the capital. Yelu has a chance of crossing the river with one hundred thousand people, equal to the strength of the capital, and then there will be teams of kings from all over the world. If there is a reliable coach, I might not be able to fight, perhaps, there is no need to move the capital."
The emperor still has one hundred thousand forbidden troops in his hand, but this is the emperor's final trump card, and he dare not hand it out easily if it is not foolproof. The emperor sat on the stage so that the officials below could not see clearly. He asked with a deep voice, "All Aiqing, who wants to lead troops to fight against Yeluji and save millions of people in Tokyo from fire and water?"
The emperor's voice lags behind, and the whole hall is quiet. In a depressed silence, Xie Xuanchen took a step forward, his expression faintly said: "The minister Xie Xuanchen, I would like to ask for a fight."
Xie Xuanchen remembered that he was in the Wende Hall two years after the founding. He also stood in this position and said, "Chen Xie Xuanchen, I am willing to fight."
Only at that time was Xie Yi, and the courtiers discussed it, and it was also the small court of Nantang who lived in the south of the Yangtze River.
It turned out that so long has passed. It took a long time to change the dynasty, and it took a long time to turn the world upside down, until he was ruined and fell from the peak.
Fall from here, then get up from here again. Since he can fall from a height, he can climb back again.
All his fame was created by himself, and that was the case, it was just a repeat.
After Xie Xuanchen's words were finished, no one spoke, but everyone should be so relieved that something was born in their hearts. They were really afraid of Xie Xuanchen, but it was also because Xie Xuanchen was in the capital, so the northern army was near the city, less than ten miles away from the capital. The court officials still dared to stand here and argue about whether to move the capital. The people outside the imperial city should do what they should do. Although nervous, they did not panic.
When King Qiyang was still there, the walls of the Ye Dynasty were indestructible.
When the emperor heard it at the top, it was no surprise. Now the whole dynasty is silent, waiting for the emperor to make a decision. Xie Xuanchen's comeback was expected by everyone, and the only thing everyone was afraid of was the emperor's secret and public despicable thoughts.
The emperor did not speak, and the people below were tense. The emperor finally compromised in the silent persecution of the people: "King An is worried about the country, and I am very relieved. But King An's illness these years is volatile. You are sick. Will fighting affect your recovery?"
"It's okay." Xie Xuanchen's eyes were half drooping, and he didn't swipe in the direction of the emperor at all. "The accident in the second year of Jianshi was all because I accidentally scammed a man and lost my mind after being poisoned. Now I have found Edan who did the cleaning The descendants of the genius doctor, after a year of detoxification, are no longer a serious problem. Now, even if the same poison is placed in front of my eyes, I will not be manipulated again. Regarding this matter, your Majesty can rest assured."
The courtiers vaguely heard the smell of gunpowder in this passage, but their attention was quickly diverted. Xie Xuanchen suddenly went crazy back then and turned out to be poisoned. This was the first time they heard about it.
Someone inevitably asked why this was poisonous, Xie Xuanchen spoke about Wu Yufei openly, and also listed Wu Yufei's habits, place of origin, and efficacy. Everyone knew that there was something happening, not Xie Xuanchen's mystery.
Xie Xuanchen dared to come out and say that it must be true. He has now revealed Wu Yufei to everyone, and this is no longer his weakness. If it is not cured, how dare Xie Xuanchen say such things publicly.
The emperor sighed suddenly. He looked at Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen's eyes were originally half-down. At this moment, it seemed that he had another pair of eyes, and he raised his eyes accurately to meet the emperor's sight.
The eyes of the two were touched in the air, and the emperor had determined that Xie Xuanchen's poison was completely resolved. It's a pity, only a little bit, but still failed.
No one knew of the battle between the emperor and Xie Xuanchen, and the other people's tone of voice became more and more relaxed. In fact, when they heard that Bei Rong attacked Suicheng, they thought of letting Xie Xuanchen go. Everyone knew it well, but no one dared to say that the unpredictability of the emperor's heart was one aspect, and Xie Xuanchen's madness was also one aspect.
Now that the emperor temporarily put aside his suspicion in front of the overall situation, Xie Xuanchen's madness also proved that there was a reason. Both worries are resolved, then the next thing is simple.
The courtiers all breathed a sigh of relief. The capital was full of food and grass, and armor and weapons were all readily available. Xie Xuanchen could set off as long as his troops were assembled. There was really nothing to worry about. The emperor also temporarily restrained his complex mood and focused on the current crisis of national extinction: "King An is committed to serving the country, and he was ordered to be in danger. It is a great service. I have always distinguished rewards and punishments. I don't know what rewards King An wants, as long as he is harmless with the society. , I have nothing to say."
Xie Xuanchen said: "The minister has nothing to ask for. There is only one condition. I want to take the princess with the army."
