Comprehensive film and television: Female supporting role counterattack plan
Chapter 23: The Starry Sky He Zhaojun 23
Ever since Zimu defeated Ling Buyi two years ago, Emperor Wen happily handed over the Yulin Guard to Zimu.
Zimu also fulfilled the oath she made when she was one year old to become a female general, and the two sisters Zimu and Shaoshang did not let the emperor down.
Zimu was better than his male peers at fighting on the battlefield and against the enemy, and he was also able to defeat a group of warlike men from the Yulin Guard until they were convinced by them.
Shao Shang's archery and horsemanship were not as good as his sister's, but his skill in setting traps earned Zimu a lot of advantages. His weapons were improved several times and were used by the soldiers at the front. His military achievements were not much worse than his sister's.
"Ah Heng, you said Zimu was going to go to war, but Zirui didn't say anything. You just gave him two sets of armor, so why isn't he in a hurry at all?"
In the evening, Emperor Wen and Empress Yue had a long chat. Empress Yue couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Why is Zirui so anxious?"
"Why aren't you anxious? Look at Zisheng, he treated Zijin as his bride. Even though he's not in the capital, didn't all those boxes of spoils go into the hands of Zijin, the money-eating beast?"
"I think Your Majesty is overthinking it. Zijin is obviously not yet enlightened. With Zimu on his side, all Zisheng's enthusiasm has been wasted." Queen Yue wanted to laugh when she thought about Zimu guarding against Zisheng like he was guarding against a thief.
"So, we can't always let Zimu stand between them. Zirui is already an adult, why doesn't he have as many ideas as Zisheng?"
Empress Yue couldn't bear to hear Emperor Wen say bad things about Zimu, so she said coldly, "Your Majesty, you are also the father of Zimu and Zijin. If you were in their shoes, would you really be willing to marry your two daughters to Zisheng and Zirui?"
Emperor Wen suddenly thought, "No, no, Zimu is a talented man with both literary and martial skills, and he is also very good-looking. He is an expert in military tactics on the battlefield. Zirui seems to be inferior to Zimu in other aspects except his face. It's no wonder that Zimu doesn't like him since he has a bad face all day long."
Queen Yue nodded in satisfaction and said, "Continue, there are still Zijin and Zisheng."
"Neither of these two will do. Ah Heng, look at Zisheng, except for the two generals, there is no one popular around him. That guy is fussy and hard to get along with, and Zijin loves to be in the crowd. So this won't work."
Emperor Wen shook his head and said, "My two daughters are not even of marriageable age yet, and those two bastards are simply inhumane, beasts. How dare they covet my Zimu and Zijin?"
"Your Majesty is absolutely right. Your Majesty Cao Cheng is tired. Let's send Your Majesty to my sister's Changqiu Palace." After saying this, he locked Emperor Wen outside the door.
When Emperor Wen arrived at Changqiu Palace, he complained to Empress Xuan that the two young men were not behaving like human beings and were thinking about their two little girls...
What could Empress Xuan do? She was forced to do her job perfunctorily. Besides, Emperor Wen was obviously fooled by Empress Yue.
While Queen Xuan was perfunctorily responding, she was silently praising Queen Yue in her heart. Although she truly liked her adopted son and Zirui, she liked Zijin and Zimu more and felt sorry for them more.
After Empress Xuan had finished dealing with Emperor Wen, she asked Lady Zhai to find out if there was anything else she could bring to Zimu and Shaoshang and send them over early the next morning.
General He and his wife and three sons are now fighting outside, and the third and fifth sons of the He family have been sent to serve as officials in remote areas.
The two daughters of the He family went to the war with only two adoptive mothers and one adoptive father to see them off. She felt sad when she thought about it, but she couldn't stop them. As long as the children were capable and wanted to do it, she would support them.
Just like the Fifth Prince said that he loves reading travel notes and likes the customs and cultures of various places described in the travel notes, and he wants to see the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas described in the travel notes even more.
He doesn't like archery and horse riding, and doesn't like government affairs. He just wants to be a lazy prince in the future. But Concubine Xu doesn't want him to go out, and she and her sister Ah Heng also support him.
The two of them cooperated with him to lobby, while Sister Ah Heng was responsible for intimidation, and finally Concubine Xu agreed that the Fifth Prince could practice some archery and horse riding in order to pursue his ideals and work hard to go out.
Outside the capital, the Yulin Guards stood in high spirits, waiting for the emperor's final instructions.
"Zi Mu, you must protect yourself well when you go to the battle this time. And Zi Jin, you are not as good as Zi Mu in archery and horse riding. Swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield, so you must be careful."
This was Zimu's first time to go on an expedition to the border. He had never been to such a far place before. Emperor Wen talked about this and that like an old woman.
The second princess, the third princess, and the fifth princess all disliked their father's nagging manner, but they couldn't say anything.
In the past they envied Ling Buyi, Zimu and Shao Shang, but after they experienced it themselves, they felt really annoyed.
"Brother Zirui, don't you have anything to tell me?"
Emperor Wen looked at his third prince warily, fearing that he would suddenly eat the cabbages he had raised with great effort.
The Third Prince was puzzled by his father's gaze, and said to Zimu: "I have said what I should say last night. Father and the two queens have also explained a lot to you. I will wait for you and Zisheng to return triumphantly in the capital."
"When did you..." Emperor Wen was about to scold the third prince when he was stopped by Empress Xuan and Empress Yue.
The eldest prince didn't know how his third brother had offended his father today. He always felt that his father was very wary of his third brother and Zimu getting along well.
"Third brother, how did you offend the emperor? Why do I feel like the emperor has become a different person? Didn't the emperor try to match you and Zimu up before?"
"..." Wen Zirui glanced at his eldest brother, and sure enough, his eldest brother was the one who looked most like Queen Mother Xuan.
Unlike Xiaowu, who lost himself in Zimu's praises and was gradually forced to become like Xuanmu.
After Emperor Wen's blessings and the order to march out, Zimu and Shao Shang rode away on horseback.
Longyou battlefield——
"Your Highnesses pay their respects to Princess Jinyang and Princess Liyang."
"Comrades, we have been ordered to come to the Longyou battlefield to provide assistance. There are only generals and soldiers here, but no princess. You and I are all comrades, so there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."
Zimu and Shao Shang helped the Wan family soldiers up, and without much ceremony, they chose a place not too far away and let the Yulin Guards set up camp.
Wan Songbai and a group of generals looked at the two girls' orderly command, and then looked at their own girl who loved to wear gold and silver the most, and felt deeply moved.
"Brother Wan, aren't these two girls princesses? Why are there these words on the flag of the Yulin Guard?" Cheng Shi was very puzzled.
"These two princesses are the twin daughters of General He Yong, and are also the adopted daughters of your majesty and the two queens."
"When Princess Jinyang was one year old, she grabbed the sword that Concubine Yue carried when His Majesty went to war, and she said that she wanted to be a female general in the future. Because Concubine Yue and Madam He had a good relationship, she was later brought to the palace to be taught by Concubine Yue, now Empress Yue. Later, His Majesty took a fancy to her and the three of them taught her together. Don't underestimate these two, they were raised like boys since they were young."
Xiao Yuanyi, who was originally shocked that Shao Shang's face looked so much like Madam Xiao, became a little angry after hearing about the He family. When she heard that both of them had been raised in the palace since childhood, she was unsure of Shao Shang's identity for a while.
