I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law

After Mu Mingtang diagnosed the happy pulse, the atmosphere in the house changed drastically, and everyone was beaming. The maids were still sad during the day, why the princess had no appetite, and now everyone is happy. The maid exchanged hot tea for Mu Mingtang, and put a soft pillow behind Mu Mingtang's waist with her hands lightly: "Be careful, princess, you are pregnant with your little master, so you can't get tired."

Mu Mingtang didn't know how to do tiring things, but now the maids are like enemies, more nervous than her righteous master, but Mu Mingtang can't laugh or cry: "It's not that exaggerated. Xiaodaochang also said this afternoon. , I just have a deficiency of qi and blood, I usually move around more and raise it well, and I will be fine."

"That can't be careless." The maid was still persistent, and she even refused to let Mu Mingtang serve a cup of tea. Mu Mingtang has someone to take over everything. She has nothing to do, so she can only caress her lower abdomen like a grotesque: "It's really tossing people."

Although she said so, her eyebrows were full of joy. This is the child of her and Xie Xuanchen, Mu Mingtang couldn't help thinking, whether this child is a boy or a girl, who has a more temperament, and whoever has more eyebrows.

Xie Xuanchen's temper is noisy enough, and if a smaller version of him is added to the family in the future, I am afraid it will be too much.

Mu Mingtang was in a daze before, and since he learned that he was pregnant, his mood instantly became high. Seeing Mu Mingtang's eyebrows and smiles, the maids were both gratified and regretful: "It's a pity that the prince has gone on the expedition and he is not in the house. If the prince knows that the prince has a little master, I don't know how happy it would be. ."

When Mu Mingtang thought of Xie Xuanchen, he was also slightly depressed. But she quickly cheered herself up: "It's okay, it's not too late to tell him when he comes back. Maybe then, the child can understand the outside world."

At this moment, the front line knows nothing about the rear.

There is no moon tonight, the stars are gloomy, and the broad and flat horizon is hidden in the darkness, like a giant beast, swallowing people on the road.

Yeluyan looked at the endless darkness and sighed deeply.

He repeatedly won the battle against the Ye dynasty and almost overthrew the Ye dynasty's capital. Victory boosted his self-confidence, and Yeluyan was pretentious, convinced that he was the one who should accomplish his ambition.

So Yeluyan secretly arranged for someone to shoot Yeluji in front of the formation, and in turn planted the money on Xie Xuanchen and provoked the war. Yeluji caused such a big trouble for Beirong, and there was no face left in the world. If it weren't for Yeluji, Yeluyan would now have Tokyo in his pocket. It's a pity that Queen Mother Xiao dotes on her younger son, and regardless of Bei Rong's long-term hegemony, she forces Yeluyan to retreat.

Empress Dowager Xiao accumulates great prestige and is no different from a half master in the court, and even the emperor must give in. Although Yeluyan has emerged in recent years, he did not dare to fight with the Empress Dowager Xiao. He even relied on marrying the Queen Mother Xiao's niece, Xiao Siyi, to please the Xiao family.

The Queen Mother ordered him to retreat, but Yeluyan did not dare to retreat. The credit for his handover just flew, Yeluyan was not reconciled and determined to find a place here at Yeluji.

Yeluji is a waste, even if he can't beat Xie Xuanchen, he will be ashamed of the Khitan people. One hundred thousand people were chased and beaten by Xie Xuanchen's eight thousand people, and they all returned to Bei Rong in the end. They were still picked up by Xie Xuanchen from the camp of twenty thousand people.

Yeluyan gritted his teeth with hatred, and his ambition, a big family plan, was on the body of Yelu. Otherwise, waiting for Yeluyan to capture the capital of the Ye Dynasty and capture Emperor Xie's alive, he will be the unique heroic overlord in the history of Khitan.

Yeluji should have been extinct and apologize to the Khitan ancestors. Since he himself refused, Yeluyan had to come.

Yeluyan shot Yeluji and solved a powerful rival to the throne for himself. When she returned to Shangdu in the future, Queen Mother Xiao asked, and Yeluyan could also push Xie Xuanchen.

Anyway, Xie Xuanchen chopped off Yeluji's finger, and he had hatred with Queen Mother Xiao. The sword has no eyes in front of the battle, who knows, where did the chaotic arrows come from?

Yeluyan solved his strong enemy, and was able to take advantage of the situation and attack the border. Ye Luyan always felt that he had a long-term vision, and this time he would surely defeat Xie Xuanchen severely and give Bei Rong a sigh of relief. He also always felt that it was Yelvji's cowardice and stupidity that would have repeatedly succeeded Xie Xuanchen. If he were replaced by himself, it would not be the case.

Now, Yeluyan ran away in the dark, he finally realized that he had imagined things too simple.

It's not that Yeluji is useless, it's not that Yeluji's command made a mistake, or that Yeluji did not make any mistakes. The enemy is too terrible.

This feeling was so familiar, Yeluyan couldn't help but think of the fear of being hanged with one hand by Xie Xuanchen on the polo field last year. At that time, he thought he was only inferior to Xie Xuanchen in fighting alone. Now after being beaten up, Yeluyan finally realized that he was inferior to Xie Xuanchen in every aspect.

Xie Xuanchen is really a nightmare.

At this moment, Nightmare himself was looking at the sand table in the main tent, the camp tent was brightly lit, and General Xu and General Chang were all around the sand table, discussing with Xie Xuanchen what to do next.

Yeluyan collapsed, and the hinterland of Beirong was exposed to them like never before. Xie Xuanchen had long prevented Yeluyan from crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, so he wrote to General Xu and the General General in Hejian to bring troops to the border to support him.

Zhongshan and Hejian have fought with Bei Rong for many years, and they most understand each other's viciousness. General Xu Lao and General Chang knew the importance and did not dare to delay, they immediately brought people together with Xie Xuanchen and displayed them on the border.

It was proved afterwards that Xie Xuanchen really didn't wrong Yeluyan.

Xie Xuanchen raided a lot of manpower from the Forbidden Army, Enzhou City, Zhending Mansion, etc. along the way, and his military strength gradually increased from 8,000 to 40,000. Although Xie Xuanchen deliberately picked good players when he left, these people were formed temporarily. Compared with the soldiers trained in Zhongshan and Hejian for more than ten years, their combat effectiveness is far worse.

So Xie Xuanchen unceremoniously called the Xu family and the Chang family. Zhongshan and Hejian had a total of 300,000 troops. Although only a small part of it was transferred, it was enough for Xie Xuanchen's support. Dealing with the 60,000 people in Yeluyan was just like playing around.

Under the light, the Xu family and Chang's lieutenant were arguing fiercely. Xu Qilang advocated victory and pursuit, but the generals of Chang general felt that the poor would not be pursued. They were lured into the enemy's hinterland, and they might lie in ambush.

The two parties couldn't help but look at Xie Xuanchen together.

Each of them is a general guarding one side, each with rich experience and different marching styles, and no one is willing to convince anyone. Only Xie Xuanchen has been able to convince everyone with contact over the past few days.

Others say they don't believe it, but if this person is Xie Xuanchen, they believe it.

When Xu Qilang quarreled with General Chang's lieutenant, Xie Xuanchen listened quietly, without comment, just fiddled with the flag in the sand table. Now the two parties are arguing, and both look at Xie Xuanchen: "Master, what do you think?"

Xu Qilang's voice fell behind, and the eyes of other people in the camp fell on Xie Xuanchen, and they all waited for Xie Xuanchen to make a statement. Xie Xuanchen seemed to have heard enough at last, and said unhurriedly, "Going deep into Beirong's land may be ambushing, what about our own?"

All the people present were startled: "The Lord..."

Suddenly Xie Xuanchen picked up the red flag representing the destination, threw it at will, and inserted it deeply into the large area of ​​land after Zhuozhou: "Youyun Sixteen Prefecture has been in the hands of outsiders for nearly 30 years, and the thing should have returned to its original owner."

Xu Qilang was stunned. After a long time, he seemed to react, and his blood exploded in an instant: "My lord, you mean to capture Youyun Sixteen Prefecture?"

"It's not a capture." Xie Xuanchen corrected. "It's a recovery."

This is Xie Xuanchen's real purpose. There is only Yeluyan, Xie Xuanchen can pack him back to his hometown with 40,000 people on his own, why bother to call Xu Jiajun and Chang Jiajun together? He assembled the northern forces, and at the beginning, his goal was Youyun Sixteen Prefectures.

Since the Youyun Sixteen Prefecture was cut out, the Guangjin, Houjin, and Zhou dynasties have tried to take it back, but they have not succeeded. After Xie Yi succeeded to the throne, the first thing was to regain the Youyun Sixteen States on the agenda. At that time, Xie Xuanchen calmed down the various small courts in the south. They originally planned to recover the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures after calming down the rear area, cultivating for a few years.

Calculating the time, this year has come to the year Xie Yi planned.

Xie Xuanchen annoyed Xie Yi since he was a child, and when he grew up, he didn't even send Xie Yi for the last time. It is really unfilial to do this for the Son of Man. Let him fulfill his last wish for his father.

Tokyo, Hanging Arch Hall.

The emperor looked gloomy at the Dibao coming back from the front.

"Hejian and Zhongshan's 300,000 troops, who issued the documents to allow them to transfer troops?"

Standing at the bottom, Prime Minister Song, Honghao Jiang and others held their breaths and said, "It's King An."

"Xie Xuanchen?" The emperor's expression became worse and worse. "Isn't he already relieved of his military power, where does he have the power to mobilize the frontier army?"

Prime Minister Song and Jiang Honghao bowed their heads, neither of them spoke. The emperor had long ordered the removal of Xie Xuanchen from his post. At first, he received the threat of Yeluyan. Later, the imperial envoy who accompanied the Beirong people to Zhongshan City returned and said that Xie Xuanchen refused to deliver and seemed to be disrespectful to the court. At that time, the emperor really became suspicious, and the subsequent transfer orders were all really to lift Xie Xuanchen's military power.

Even if we take a step back, what Xie Xuanchen did was for the court. Now that the crisis in Tokyo has been resolved, Yeluyan has returned to Beirong, everything has returned to the right track, and Xie Xuanchen is still resisting the decree. What is the purpose?

Not only did he hold on to the power of Zhending Mansion, he even mobilized the 300,000 defenders in Zhongshan and Hejian to move around the border. Military commanders only have the right to train but not send troops. Without the central government's dispatching orders and civilian supervision, they are not allowed to send troops.

But now, without the imperial government knowing nothing, the 300,000 troops in Beizhen moved frequently along the border, and even went abroad. So ignoring the discipline, is it possible to rebel?

During the siege of the city a few days ago, Prime Minister Song, Honghao Jiang and others were scared to death. Later, I heard that Xie Xuanchen had arrested Yeluji and did not hesitate to anger the Beirong people to force Yeluyan to retreat. The princes and ministers of Tokyo complained that Xie Xuanchen was too reckless. Later, I heard that Xie Xuanchen could kill Yeluyan and rebuild the capital. Anyway, he would never hand over the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan and Hejian.

In fact, everyone knows that it is common to talk ruthlessly at the negotiating table, and it is easy not to expose your bottom line. But these words fell in the ears of Song Jae and others, and they still offended the senior officials in the capital.

The more senior officials, the more afraid of death. Xie Xuanchen offended many officials in the capital at a time, and he also hoped that the chief executives would have any kind words in front of the emperor. Prime Minister Song was not very happy, and said, "My Lord, I heard that King An said a few days ago that he will not be subject to orders from foreign monarchs. When he said these things, he was in the presence of imperial envoys and the soldiers. The minister knows that you have high hopes for King An, but the tigers eat their mothers, and the wolves kill their fathers, you must guard against it."

Jiang Honghao kept his sleeves closed. Hearing what Song said, he and Xie Xuanji looked at each other. Weng and his son-in-law went out together and said: "Prime Minister Song is very true. The ambition of Wang An's wolf is exposed. Your Majesty must not prevent it."

Xie Xuanji also said: "My son knows that his father wants to see his second brother, but now the second brother is too eager to understand, and he has gone astray. Please father the emperor make up his mind to pull the second brother back to the right path and let him rein in the precipice."

Under the persuasion of the people, the emperor finally said with great pain: "I have high hopes for him. For many years, I have been deliberately letting him inherit the Datong. Unexpectedly, he did such things, which really disappointed me. Dang Duan has been constantly fighting against the chaos. He has done so many mistakes. If I don't punish him, I am afraid it will make the world feel cold."

The others in the case all gave their hands together: "Your Majesty said that."

The emperor said with a sullen face, and said, "If you come, you must pass the decree immediately. King An has repeatedly resisted the decree and despised the emperor. He violated his duties as a minister. This time, he has not mobilized the frontier army and left the border privately. Big bogey. I watched his youth and ignorance, and I endured it, but I didn’t expect him to become more vigorous and do not know how to repent. I immediately removed all rights of King An and summoned him to return to Beijing alone, otherwise he would be punished with conspiracy. Zhongshan, Hejian The defending general knowingly committed the crime, but did not report it, and immediately resigned from his post and waited for the court to issue."

Prime Minister Song, Honghao Jiang and others bowed their long sleeves, "Your Majesty Shengming."
