The county horse is a medicine jar

The stone steps leading to Qinzheng Palace seem to have no end in sight at first glance, and there is a forbidden soldier in armor standing two steps away. The whole palace is shrouded in a solemn and solemn atmosphere, which makes people feel fearful .

Those around him were all high-ranking officials in official uniforms and jade belts, among them were some uncles whom Lin Sishen had known since childhood, after a few polite greetings, Lin Sishen followed General Lin step by step without saying a word.

Everyone knew that Lin Sishen was about to go to the front line, and they looked at her with extremely dark eyes, with sympathy and gloating.

The battles on the front line are retreating steadily, and I heard that even General Wen, who has experienced many battles, has been injured. If Lin Sishen, a noble young man who looks as weak as a chicken, goes to the battlefield, he will most likely follow her. Following in the footsteps of the two older brothers.

Apart from the useless Eldest Young Master, Lin Sishen is the only one left in the General's Mansion.

Following the eunuch's sharp upturn, everyone took turns walking into the hall without haste, and Lin Sishen, who was dressed in white casual clothes, was particularly conspicuous among the crowd.

Lin Sishen was standing beside General Lin, and standing in front of him was the prince wearing a golden python suit. The prince's life has not been easy for the past half month. Ever since Duke Qing was imprisoned, the Holy Majesty has been suppressing the power of the princelings.

The prince, who was always high-spirited, seemed to have weakened a lot, staring blankly at the floor without saying a word.

But soon, he turned around and glanced at Lin Sishen thoughtfully, and then hastily averted his gaze, obviously not wanting to meet her in the court.

On the contrary, the second prince, who was wearing a purple robe and had a face like a crown jade, was talking and laughing. After looking sideways at Lin Sishen, he nodded to her with a slight smile on his lips, which was regarded as a silent greeting.

Lin Sishen closed his eyes, and nodded slightly in return.

In fact, just from the looks of the two of them, one can see which of the two of them is more valued by the emperor now. I heard that the emperor has given some power to the second prince in recent days. It is a sign that the prince made the second prince the crown prince.

After waiting for a long time, a golden bell hanging on the corridor outside the hall was rang, and then the emperor appeared on the stage.

Lin Sishen followed General Lin and knelt on the ground, shouting together with the crowd: "Welcome, Your Majesty."

In the center of the hall, the emperor in a dragon robe with white beard and hair stepped forward with his hands behind his back, and walked towards the dragon chair step by step with the support of the eunuch.

The emperor sat down on the dragon chair, glanced at the kneeling officials in the main hall, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Everyone loves you."

The courtiers all know that the most important thing today is the border war, and no one dares to mention other trivial matters, so the second prince took the lead in taking a step forward and bowed: "Report to Father, a few days ago, Father ordered my son to Responsible for the delivery of military supplies, my son has already prepared a thousand stones and three thousand horses, and the food and grass will be sent to the front line immediately if the emperor orders it."

Hearing the words, the old emperor stroked his beard, and the second prince completed what was supposed to be done within five days. The old emperor was very satisfied with this, and praised: "It's done well, and the food, grass and military supplies It's ready, and it will be sent tomorrow."

Seeing that the second prince was praised, the prince couldn't help being a little impatient. Before the second prince could take orders, he hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "Father, I heard that the general led the army to fight the Lao army this time, and they were defeated in the first battle. My son thought that he would The general is still too young and energetic, and the old general Lin has been in the field for a long time, and he has rarely lost against the Lao army all the year round. According to Erchen, it is better for General Lin to put on armor to fight against the Lao army."

The voice fell, but the emperor was expressionless, instead he turned his head to look at the second prince, and asked, "What do you think?"

Seeing that the emperor asked the second prince's opinion when it was clearly suggested by him, the prince's expression froze immediately.

After pondering for a moment, the second prince glanced at General Lin, and then said loudly: "I think that although General Lin has been brave in battle for a long time, he is already old."

In the court, Lin Sishen witnessed the tit-for-tat confrontation between the prince and the second prince for the first time. The prince wanted to remove Wen Xingren and let General Lin join the battle, but the second prince's tone was tactful. Raise General Lin.

Just relying on verbal confrontation, the prince has already lost completely.

After the emperor listened to the courtier's suggestion, he set his sights on Lin Sishen who bowed his head and kept silent.

He waved his hand to signal everyone to silence, and then signaled Lin Sishen to step forward: "Lin Sishen, what do you think?"

Lin Sishen stepped forward slowly, bowed and cupped his hands, and said in a deep voice neither humble nor overbearing: "I think that although General Wen is young and vigorous, he has read the art of war and fought steadily. A little rest can restore morale. Conversely, if General Wen is removed because of a single defeat, General Wen may be hit hard."

Lin Sishen's remarks coincided with those of the Second Prince.

The prince's eyes sank, and he stared at her back with great dissatisfaction, while the second prince lifted his lips and smiled quite complacently.

The emperor squinted his eyes at her, laughed and said, "I mean the same thing. After all, General Lin is old, and he is going to fight the enemy with an old bone. The people should say that the emperor is too inconsiderate." Veteran, it's better to give such a high-spirited young man like General Wen one more chance."

As soon as the conversation changed, the emperor said again: "However, I heard that the general sent back a military report yesterday, saying that the Lao army had gathered a group of stragglers and sent them to the front line. I implore me to send troops to reinforce it. I plan to send [-] Yulin troops to the front. Join up with General Wen to fight against the Lao army. It's just that I haven't made a decision yet on who will lead the army, Lin Sishen, who do you think is capable of this job in the court?"

The old emperor was really cunning, he didn't directly ask Lin Sishen to lead the army, but asked Lin Sishen to recommend a general.He had signaled to everyone early and secretly that he wanted Lin Sishen to lead his troops to the battlefield, but now he asked hypocritically, which was clearly forcing Lin Sishen to recommend himself.

Lin Sishen naturally understood what the emperor meant. She took a deep breath, knelt on the ground, and clapped her hands together and said loudly: "My subject, Lin Sishen, would like to recommend myself to lead troops to the front line to fight against the Lao army with General Wen."

As Lin Sishen expected, the old emperor couldn't help stroking Longyan Dayue when he heard the words, and immediately praised General Lin for having no sons, and then praised Lin Sishen a few words, and appointed her as the captain of the Habayashi Army. front.

After coming down to court, Lin Sishen and General Lin walked out of the hall side by side, the crown prince stood outside the door waiting for the two of them, but there were many courtiers coming and going, the second prince did not leave, and he didn't say anything else.

Just now in the court hall, he clearly heard that Lin Sishen was in collusion with the second prince, and he clenched his fists in anger, but now he has a gentle appearance, carefully telling Lin Sishen to take care, and he will wait for the good news from the front line in the capital. At that time, I will definitely ask for credit and reward for Lin Sishen.

After all, just leave.

On the way back to the mansion, General Lin looked worried, thinking that he didn't know how to speak to the old lady Liu Qingyun, and told Lin Sishen that he was going to the front line tomorrow.

Lin Sishen knew what was on his mind, but he didn't say anything to comfort him. Instead, he reminded: "Father should avoid contacting the crown prince and the second prince less in the future."

General Lin nodded when he heard the words, sighed and said: "The prince originally wanted to lead the army in the battle for the father to replace General Wen's Tiger Talisman, but the old wounds on his father's many years of fighting, it is really powerless."

In the past, General Lin always felt that Corporal Lixian, the crown prince, was quite wise, but since he learned about the two things about Duke Manxianglou Qing, he was also very disappointed in him.

Lin Sishen took the opportunity to persuade: "The crown prince is eager for quick success, and only wants to claim credit in front of the holy majesty. Since father knows his intentions, it's better to have less contact with him."

General Lin said with a dazed expression, "It seems that my father is really old."

As soon as he arrived at the General's Mansion, Lin Sishen couldn't wait to jump out of the carriage, ignored General Lin's stomping and roaring behind him, and hurried to Liuguang Pavilion.

The anger on the grandmother and mother's side should be left to the father first.

As soon as she entered the Liuguang Pavilion, Lin Sishen saw Mo Zhu watering the flowers in the courtyard, and she hurried forward to ask Shen Qinghou's whereabouts.

Seeing her dusty appearance, Mo Zhu felt a little dissatisfied that she went looking for Shen Qinghou as soon as she entered the courtyard, but she pointed to the study room helplessly, and told her: "The princess has just returned, and she is currently in the study room."

Lin Sishen turned around and glanced at the closed door of the study, then said softly: "Mo Zhu, I ask you to do something for me."

After finishing speaking, she whispered a few words into Mo Zhu's ear.

Mo Zhu's delicate and fair face turned red a little, Lin Sishen slapped her in the ear as soon as he moved away, and said in a low voice, "My lord really intends to do this?"

Lin Sishen nodded, and said seriously: "You just do as I tell you, it's best to go right now, if it's too late, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"The servant knows, let's do it now."

After Mo Zhu left, Lin Sishen breathed a sigh of relief. Time was running out and she had to leave the capital tomorrow. There were still many things she needed to order one by one, but the most important thing right now was to inform Shen Qinghou of her departure tomorrow. thing.

Lin Sishen walked to the door of the study and raised his hand to knock on the door, but for some reason he didn't knock on it.

Today, she came and went in a hurry and all she could think about was the border war. Now that she finally calmed down, the frivolous behavior of Shen Qinghou to her on the bed last night appeared in her mind.

The faint touch on her lips last night, that joyful whisper made her calm heart start beating inexplicably faster again, her raised hand slowly fell down, and she couldn't help but feel a retreat in her heart.

Perhaps she was not ready to face Shen Qinghou again, and she didn't know how to speak, nor what expression to make.

Lin Sishen stood by the door of the study for a long time, then sighed with a complicated expression, turned around and planned to leave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, the closed door behind her was pulled open, and Lin Sishen turned around to look.

I saw Shen Qinghou in a snow-white dress leaning against the door with a cold expression. He glanced at her lightly, then raised his eyebrows, and opened his lips and said, "I wanted to see, what are you planning to do at the door?" How long did you stand on the sidelines, but I didn’t expect you to be so gutless.”

Seeing Shen Qinghou, Lin Sishen hurriedly lowered his head, his ears hidden in his hair turned red instantly, and the hand hanging by his side couldn't help clenching the corners of his sleeves, and whispered: "Princess."

Shen Qinghou tilted his head slightly, looked her up and down with his long and narrow eyes, and curled up a strand of hair with his fingertips stained with ink: "Next time you stand in front of the door and hesitate like this again, I won't help you." The door is open."

Lin Sishen pursed his lips and smiled softly, "Tomorrow, I should go. Even if I want to stand in front of the princess's gate, I don't know when I will have the chance."

The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. I don't know how long he will stay there. Lin Sishen can't even guarantee that he will come back alive.

Shen Qinghou frowned slightly, bit her lips lightly with her white teeth, and the expression in her eyes was quite complicated: "Tomorrow?"

Lin Sishen touched the jade pendant on his waist, looked up at her, shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Well, the Holy Majesty has ordered me to lead a forest army of [-] feathers tomorrow to escort food and supplies to the front line."

Hearing this, Shen Qinghou lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Sishen's wrist, gently pulled her into the study, then closed the door tightly, turned around and looked at Lin Sishen with an inexplicable expression. .

With a mellow gaze, he lightly opened his mouth and said, "Take off your clothes."
