Chapter 56 The Emperor and His General 18
After Mu Zecang left, Xu Chenlun felt empty all the time.The war can’t be finished in a short while. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it’s the first time he has to part with his lover for such a long time. It was a modern life before. When he misses the other person, he can make a video call or book the nearest plane. Tickets, you can see your lover in a few hours.
However, this was simply not feasible in ancient times when technology was backward and communication was inconvenient.
Xu Chenlun sent the best martial artist in the shadow team over, besides secretly protecting Mu Zecang's safety, he was also responsible for the communication between the two.At the beginning, there was a letter every three days, which happened to be the time when the pigeons flew from the border to the palace.
Mu Zecang always reported good news but not bad news, so Xu Chenlun asked Ying Yi to send the report in an envelope.Every time he read the letter Mu Zecang wrote to himself, and then went to see the records of Mu Zecang, it was usually the general who was worried about the war today, and discussed the military situation with everyone until late at night, and stayed up all night.Or maybe the Huns came to invade today, and the general was injured in time to dodge.
Every time Xu Chenlun read Mu Zecang's letter, he would smile when he felt the tenderness and tenderness revealed between the lines.Looking at Yingyi's real feedback, he would often be furious, and the reply letter was not polite.
Later, Mu Zecang learned to be good, he knew that it was useless to hide those things, anyway, Yingyi would expose him sooner or later, so he honestly wrote a letter to Xu Chenlun.Sometimes I would complain to him when I was worried about the military situation.
Xu Chenlun knew that he had his own strategy to deal with the enemy, so he didn't want to disturb his thoughts, besides, when the letter was delivered to Mu Zecang, the day lily was cold.Therefore, he often does not offer advice, but only comforts with gentle words.
Later, Xu Chenlun learned from the military newspaper that the border war was tight, and Mu Zecang was powerless to think about it. The letters changed from one letter every three days to ten days, and then to half a month.When he was busy going around, Mu Zecang took time to read the letter Xu Chenlun wrote to him.
Xu Chenlun's handwriting is unrestrained and unrestrained, and the turning point of the pen is sharp and sharp, but the words he writes are lingering and tender. Sometimes Mu Zecang really can't tell whether his kindness to him is just a whim or not.
If so, how could anyone do it so true?It almost made him think that the two really love and know each other, rather than his one-man show alone.Every time Mu Zecang thought of this, a sense of loss and sorrow would fill his heart, like a child who couldn't find a home, confused and hesitant.
After winter, border wars are tense. Xu Chenlun has not received a letter from Mu Zecang for a long time. If the battle reports of victory did not come from time to time, which stabilized his heart, he was really afraid that he would leave everything here and go to the battlefield .
When people are free, they think a lot. Xu Chenlun tried to keep himself busy so that his mind would not be filled with the shadow of Mu Zecang every day.
The war between Xu Chenlun and Xu Xuanming has officially begun.The two sides can now be said to be evenly matched.Many old ministers from the previous generation, especially the grand master and grand master entrusted by the former emperor, came out of the mountains one after another, and stood firmly on Xu Chenlun's side.
The capital has already been filled with a chilling and tense atmosphere, not only because of the tight border wars, but also because of the rapidly changing court today.Almost every two weeks, someone was asked to be beheaded or ransacked their house, maybe it was Xu Chenlun's person, or it might be Xu Xuanming's person.
Even ordinary ordinary people in the capital could smell this unusual smell, and went home early after nightfall, not daring to wander outside.
Xu Chenlun used scheming to play chess, and he had a ruthless spirit of breaking the cauldron and never ending his retreat.People like him are ruthless to others, and even more ruthless to themselves. They never leave any room for retreat, like a sharp sword without the protection of its scabbard, revealing boundless killing intent.
He wants to use all his strength to keep Beichang country free from worries, and provide the strongest backing for Mu Zecang who is on the front line, so he can't lose. He wants to play all his trump cards to contain Xu Xuanming, so that he has no time to care about the border war. In order not to cooperate with the Xiongnu inside and outside, and put Mu Zecang in danger.
Xu Xuanming's temperament is not as ruthless as his. He has been sleeping in the gentle and rich village for a long time, and he inevitably has some indecision in his temperament, but his methods are becoming more and more cruel.The two held back for several months, and Xu Chenlun's side gradually showed an advantage.
On this day, Xu Chenlun was writing a reply to Mu Zecang, when he suddenly felt palpitations in his chest, that terrible feeling was very similar to the pain Xu Chenlun felt on the day Mu Zecang went to war.
He frowned and covered his heart. The ink on the brush was affected by gravity, and fell down with a "click", staining the word "Amu" with ink, and the ink gradually penetrated into the paper. Until I can no longer see what I wrote.
In a daze, Xu Chenlun seemed to see Mu Zecang's red tassel buried in yellow sand.
"Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?" Eunuch Li handed over a cup of tea, Xu Chenlun reached out to take it, and was about to drink it, but paused.
"Go down first, I want to be alone." Xu Chenlun ordered with a blank expression.
Eunuch Li glanced at the cup of tea that Xu Chenlun was holding, and seemed worried.
"Your Majesty, it's better to drink it while it's hot." After finishing speaking, he bowed his head and backed away.
After he left, Xu Chenlun snorted coldly, and casually poured the tea brewed with Biluochun into the green plant in front of him.
Eunuch Li, after all, rebelled.
Even if Xu Chenlun made good use of people's hearts, he still couldn't grasp everyone's thoughts. This person's heart is the most important thing, because it is dirty enough and terrifying enough.Xu Chenlun gave this Eunuch Li who grew up with Yuanshen a chance, but he still chose more practical money and status.
The sudden turning point happened in the afternoon three days later, when a secret report disrupted all of Xu Chenlun's rhythms.Sitting in the imperial study, he creased the thin paper, his fingertips turned white, and his hands were shaking so badly.
"Can you say that again."
His voice was low and hoarse, almost unable to utter a sound, as if someone had scratched the rough sand with a knife, it was harsh and unpleasant.
Kneeling at the bottom was a soldier under Mu Zecang's command. He rushed to the capital day and night after running two horses to death.He lowered his head, holding back the hot tears that wanted to burst out of his eyes: "General, it's too bad."
Xu Chenlun could read, and he could see clearly what was written in the secret letter in his hand.
"On October 3000th, General Mu led [-] Qingqi troops to raid the enemy army. Unexpectedly, they were tricked on the way back. So far, they are still dead. None of the more than [-] people has returned. Tentatively, they are missing."
Ying Yi hadn't conveyed the news for a long time, presumably he was already dead.
But today is the fifth day of Dongyue, and there is no news so far.
How could this be so... Xu Chenlun thought blankly, the progress of the war was almost over now, and the Xiongnu already had the intention of retreating.It will be the new year in a month, and he still thinks that when Mu Zecang's class teacher returns to the court, the two of them can have a good New Year's Eve dinner and let Mu Zecang taste the dumplings made by himself. Ready……
"How come..." Xu Chenlun lowered his head and muttered to himself.
"Your Majesty." The Tai Tuo on the side looked worriedly at the person sitting on the dragon chair, as if all the strength had been taken from him in an instant, and his eyes were loose.
Unexpectedly, General Mu could have such influence on the emperor.Taifu pinched his beard and sighed unceasingly.He should have thought about it long ago. Xu Chenlun treated Mu Zecang differently. The unfavorable rumors about Ze Cang spread.
Xu Xuanming's people wanted to make a fuss about this matter, but Xu Chenlun suppressed it with thunderous tactics, so that they could not cause any trouble.
It's just that now is not the time to think about the relationship between the two, the Taifu frowned, thinking that Mu Zecang would be really unlucky... Who would be better to be the general?That Xiao Yang seems to have been shot by Old General Mu himself.
The Taifu was thinking about it, when he heard Xu Chenlun say calmly: "I want to deal with Xu Xuanming as soon as possible, and go out to fight in person."
If Qing Piao Piao didn't even have a trace of strength, it was like a thunderbolt hitting the Tai Tuo, scaring him and tearing off a few of his beards.
Ignoring his pity for his well-maintained beard, the Taifu dissuaded Xu Chenlun with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you are the king of a country, how can you go to the battlefield so easily? You went to the front line, what should you do with the affairs of the DPRK and China? Ministers So what?"
In fact, there is a more secret worry in Taifu's heart. Xu Xuanming must be eliminated. Xu Chenlun has no heirs and no brothers. If something happens to him on the battlefield, the huge Beichang Kingdom will be in chaos. ?
Isn't there no successor for this throne?
"I have made up my mind, so there is no need for the Taifu to say more."
Xu Chenlun turned his head to look at the elderly Taifu, the veteran of the two dynasties.
I don't know if it was the Taifu's illusion, the moment Xu Chenlun looked at him, he seemed to see a gleam of water in the eyes of this cruel and forbearing emperor.
On the second day, there seemed to be dark clouds over the government hall, and the atmosphere was so heavy and oppressive that the ministers were silent.And it was the emperor sitting in a high position that brought this atmosphere.
"If there is something to play, if there is nothing to do, leave the court—" Eunuch Li's sharp voice still rang above the court hall.
Ministers look at me and look at you, and they dare not be the first to stand out.His Majesty was furious when he saw it, and no one dared to touch the tiger's whiskers.
"Report-"
"There is a military report on the northern border!"
"Xuan." Xu Chenlun opened his lips and said a word coldly.
A soldier in armor came in from outside the hall. He came only one day later than Mu Zecang's personal soldiers. He must have been on the road for a long time, weathering the wind and rain.His body was so dirty that he could no longer see his original appearance, but no one scolded him for being impolite, so everyone looked at him with bated breath, even Xu Xuanming was no exception.
"Report to the Emperor, General Mu Ze Cang Mu, he, he is dead."
Xu Chenlun suddenly squeezed the armrest of the dragon chair tightly.
It was only later that he learned that in Beichang country, especially on the war-torn border, as long as they are missing for fifteen days, they will be classified as dead. After all, there are so many people who died in the war, and there are broken arms and limbs everywhere. Who belonged to whom, and those whose bodies could not be found were all entered into the death file.
Chao Tang thought that a drop of hot oil had fallen into the boiling water, and the pot exploded.
The corner of Xu Xuanming's mouth raised a secret arc.
However, this was simply not feasible in ancient times when technology was backward and communication was inconvenient.
Xu Chenlun sent the best martial artist in the shadow team over, besides secretly protecting Mu Zecang's safety, he was also responsible for the communication between the two.At the beginning, there was a letter every three days, which happened to be the time when the pigeons flew from the border to the palace.
