New Dream of Red Mansions

Xia Yuntian asked the supervising army in a deep voice: "What should I do if I don't obey the military orders when I go to battle?"

The cold sweat on the back of the supervisor slipped down, and he glanced at Xia Yuntian with a serious face, and replied: "Behead!"

General Liu and General Yuan looked at each other, their hearts skipped a beat, and when they were about to speak up, Xia Yuntian ordered directly: "Come on, drag General Liu and General Yuan down and behead them!"

The King of Nan'an was taken aback, and quickly stopped him: "General, although General Liu and General Yuan have violated military discipline, but now is the time to employ people, it is better to let them make up for their mistakes."

Xia Yuntian snorted coldly, "If we hadn't sent another team today, I'm afraid that none of the people led by General Zhang would be able to come back, and the lives of so many soldiers would not be enough to deal with them?" Xia Yuntian looked coldly Looking at them, he said coldly: "Even when I am employing people, I will never use people who are only harmful to our army but not good."

General Liu and General Yuan blushed, "What does General Xia mean by this? Although we may not be victorious in all battles, we are definitely not the ones who lose all battles."

Zhang Shicheng came in just in time, and when he heard the words, he sneered and said, "Can those two generals tell us why we didn't obey the command flag at that time?"

General Liu stiffened his neck and said, "We misread the command flag."

Several people laughed on the spot, and Zhang Shicheng laughed even more: "General Liu and General Yuan made a mistake together, but I remember that the order flag on the city wall was held down at that time. I don't know how General Liu regarded it as It's the flag order to attack."

General Liu and General Yuan looked at each other. They didn't even think about giving a reasonable excuse. One-third of the soldiers who participated in the battle this time were from Lingnan. They didn't believe Xia Yuntian. It will kill them because of this, at most it will be over with dozens of boards.

Even now they are still not sure whether Xia Yuntian really wants to kill them, or just pretending.

Xia Yuntian looked directly at the guards on both sides, "Why, what I said doesn't work?"

The guard had no choice but to press down General Liu and General Yuan.

The people from Lingnan all stood up, and Zhang Shicheng brought Xia Yuntian's people to stand beside Xia Yuntian.

Xia Yuntian just sat and looked at them indifferently, "Why, you want to rebel?"

The few people who stood up looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, just clasped their fists and said: "I also ask General Xia to forgive me and spare their lives."

King Nan'an also became nervous and pleaded for them again and again.

"If you want to spare them, you can wait until you change the rules of the three armies. When you don't respect the military order, you don't have to die. The general will naturally spare them."

A few people stopped talking immediately, isn't this going to disrupt the army?

Zhang Shicheng looked at the guards sharply, "Hurry up and detain them!"

Naturally, Xia Yuntian would not just kill them like this, but called all the soldiers of the three armies to watch the ceremony. He looked at them coldly, and said coldly: "I will issue a military order in front of the emperor on your behalf before departure. Who is there?" If you want to die, report to the general first, I will send you on the road, don't stay and drag down the three armies and the prince of Nan'an."

King Nan'an was taken aback, and looked at Xia Yuntian in astonishment.But after thinking about it, it became clear that if he was really defeated, although he would not die, the county king had achieved his goal.

The soldiers below all looked at Xia Yuntian complicatedly. When they learned that Xia Yuntian had made this military order, they were not without complaints against Xia Yuntian in their hearts. It was just that Xia Yuntian came back from helping the emperor to relieve the disaster and pulled down the Zhen family. The emperor said he would send him to southern Xinjiang, and he felt a little sympathetic to him in his heart, and he also felt a little sad for the death of a rabbit.Even the Ou family was complained by them.

Now that the enemy is in front of them, they are in chaos first. If King Nan'an has that ability, they would not want to get involved in these struggles no matter what.

The generals in Lingnan are just like the generals in the north. Eight out of ten are inclined to the Au family. General Liu and General Yuan are not low in rank. Two of them died at once. Two of the people over there came up.

King Nan'an had a complicated heart. His territory was in the southwest, which was close to Lingnan, so some fights were inevitable. Now that his people directly joined the Lingnan Army, he felt joyful but also worried.

The district general was simply annoyed.

He got so many favors, and it took so much effort to persuade several princes to help transfer the errand to Xia Yuntian, but Xia Yuntian kicked the ball back to him directly. If he loses this time, he will send People who go out will not be able to come back, and then the middle level will be empty. If the emperor sneaks in, will the Lingnan Army still be the leader of their district family?So when he heard that Xia Yuntian beheaded two of his generals directly, he widened his eyes, crushed the cup in his hand, and said in a hateful voice: "Good Xia Yuntian, ignorant boy, if you dare to fight this general, this general will fall!" Let's see, what can you do if you go back!"

Xia Yuntian's good news kept coming back to the capital, the emperor heaved a sigh of relief, and the queen put her palms together to recite the Buddha's name and said "Amitabha".

The Supreme Emperor laughed loudly when he heard about it in the palace, and said: "Marquis Pingyang has lived up to the reputation of his ancestors, this battle was fought well, but the small country of Nanman dares to keep provoking!"

The queen mother laughed and said, "That's something the children should worry about. Why are you bothered? I was thinking that the heat is so hot these days, and I want to go to Chengde to escape the summer heat. Why don't you go with me?"

The emperor was moved, he was very old, but the older he was, the more he was afraid of heat, and he also felt that this year was very hot.

The queen mother saw his intentions, so she made a decision directly: "Okay, then it's settled. In the past, it was you who made the decision. Now, it's my turn to be the master. Let them pack their things. We Let's go on the eighth day."

The Supreme Emperor laughed and said: "I originally wanted you to be the master once, but it's a pity that I can't do it without me watching from the side. It's already the fifth day, how can I make it in time for the eighth day? Or go on the tenth day Right. We are not in a hurry, we just swim slowly from here, this time we don’t take anyone with us, just the two of us go there to play freely.”

The Queen Mother nodded happily.

The emperor and the empress heard that the emperor and the empress dowager were going out, so they hurried over to greet them, and said, "Why don't you ask the prince and a few brothers to serve by your side?"

The queen said: "The daughter-in-law should follow the mother to serve her."

The queen mother waved her hands again and again, "You don't need to follow this time, and no one else needs to follow. It's just me and the emperor, and we don't feel comfortable taking you by our side."

The Supreme Emperor nodded.

The emperor and queen persuaded for a while, but seeing that the two old men were determined, they stopped mentioning it.It's just that although there are only the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager this time, there are a lot of things to prepare. Almost half of the people in the two palaces have left, and there are also guards.The emperor was worried about the Taishanghuang's health, and brought nearly half of the imperial doctors in the Taishang Hospital to the Taishanghuang. After a few busy days, he finally sent the Taishanghuang and the Queen Mother out of the palace.

At the beginning of June, when it was the hottest time, good news came from southern Xinjiang. Most of the lost land had been recovered, and now there was only one city that had not been recovered.

The emperor was overjoyed, and after he came down to court, he rewarded Pingyanghou's mansion with many things, and Pingyanghou once again became a celebrity in front of the emperor.

When Chunlan and Dongmei heard the news from Zhuang Sheng, they rushed to tell Xiyan, and said with a smile, "Our uncle is really good, and now he can't even lift up those southern barbarians."

Xiyan frowned. She vaguely remembered that King Nan'an was captured because of his defeat. It seems that this period of history has also changed.

It's just that the Ou family is uniting with several families to deal with the Xia family. Now that the emperor rewards Xia Yuntian so generously, I'm afraid it will make those people feel uneasy, and I'm afraid they will jump the wall and do something in a hurry.

Xiyan thought for a while, picked up a pen and wrote a few words to seal it, and said to Chunlan, "Go and call Zhuang Sheng, and ask him to give this letter to Steward Xia."

Seeing that her girl's face was not happy, Chunlan murmured in her heart, carefully took the letter and put it next to her body before going out.

Housekeeper Xia received Xiyan's letter, opened it and looked at it, secretly applauding in his heart, he called Xia Yuan, and said: "These days, the house is closed tightly, the subordinates are restrained, and you are not allowed to cause trouble. Take precautions."

Xia Yuan didn't know what happened, but he knew what to ask and what not to ask, so he agreed and went down to make arrangements. After that, he checked every day, for fear that the people below would cause some trouble.

Mrs. Zhou is sensitive, she noticed something, and called Steward Xia to ask, but Steward Xia never reported to her about outside affairs, and this time he only talked about daily inspections, and nothing happened.

Zhou smiled and did not press any further questions.

After Steward Xia went out, Nanny Liu said unfairly: "Butler Xia's score is too big."

Mrs. Zhou shook her head and said, "Our Xia family's external and internal affairs have always been separated."

"But when the eldest lady was here, she took care of the outside affairs with the uncle..."

Mrs. Zhou lowered her eyes, it was the uncle who asked Mrs. Zhang to take care of it, the second master had a simple mind and never thought about it, and Mrs. Tai had a heart for her...

Zhou shook her head to shake off the thoughts in her mind, and said: "We also restrain the inner house like the outer courtyard, and don't let them go out to cause trouble."

Grandma Liu responded with some injustice.

The Zhou family knew it all, so naturally they couldn't hide it from the old lady, she vaguely knew that it was Xiyan's reminder.Before his son left, he had told her that he had handed over the secret forces left behind in the family to Xiyan, because he was afraid that if something happened in the mansion, there would be no one outside to support him.

The old lady thinks about it too, if something really happens to Pingyang Hou's mansion, their orphans and widows are trapped in the mansion, and only Xiyan outside can save them.

The old lady has been restless these past few days. Although there are frequent good news, she always feels that something will happen. She went to the Buddhist hall with some restlessness, hoping that the Bodhisattva can bless the Xia family once or twice.

The old lady didn't expect something to happen so soon, but at night, word came out from the palace that the Fifth Prince ate a bowl of iced pears because he was greedy for cold, and his diarrhea started in the afternoon, and it hasn't stopped until now.

Eunuch Wei stood in front of the old lady with his head down, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is really in a hurry. The prescription prescribed by the imperial hospital is useless. Now that the fifth prince is still taking it, I want to ask the old lady to see if I can help you." Can't find any good recipes outside..."

The old lady felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and asked him with a wooden face, "What did the emperor say?"

Eunuch Wei lowered his voice, "The emperor will kill all those who served beside the fifth prince."

Even though she was as gentle as an old lady, anger flashed across her face when she heard the words, "What does he mean?"

Eunuch Wei quickly knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Madam, you can't get angry. Your Majesty has quarreled with the Emperor over this matter. Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is copying the "Book of Rites" in the East Palace, and His Highness the Third Prince has been sent to Madam Li. take care of……"

The old lady hit a life
