Raise an emperor as a villain

After Lu Hengxiu and Ming Jue made up their minds, they went back to look for Zhan Taihong.

"What?! My lord, you want to invite soldiers to chase after him?" Zhan Taihong was shocked when he heard the words: "This is absolutely impossible, how can the lord's rich body go to danger?" He waved his hands again and again: No way.

"General, the general is the pillar of the country. The people in Yancheng, Qizhou and the northern border all rely on the protection of the Jianjun, so the general should not be taken lightly. But this king is just an idle king. He has no merits in the country or family. He couldn't be more suitable for the candidate. What's more, in the face of national crisis, why would I die to repay the country." Ming Jue's words were well-founded, and he also gave Zhan Taihong a comfortable high hat, which was really hard to refuse .

"However, if the prince's personal conquest is to ask the emperor to ask for an order, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth, and I'm afraid it will delay the opportunity of the battle." Zhan Taihong said hesitantly. He naturally wanted someone to fight for him. With a son at home, I no longer dare to work hard like when I had nothing.As for Ming Jue's departure, no matter whether he succeeds or not, it doesn't do much harm to him.

"The general will not be accepted by the king's orders. After the king goes out, someone will naturally write a letter to the court on his behalf. I think I will not be blamed by the court if I kill the king first and then play. If someone really blames me, I will definitely take it wholeheartedly and never hurt the general." Although Ming Jue's voice was not loud, it was powerful.

"Okay...the prince has such ambitions, how dare he stop him." Zhan Taihong is not a scumbag, and at this time Ming Jue's words aroused his former pride, so he readily agreed.

"Since this is the case, please prepare quickly, general. This king needs five thousand horses, and the best equipment is enough to feed the army for a month. Don't be sloppy."

"Don't worry, my lord, it will be ready in two days." Zhan Taihong originally thought that Ming Jue would open his mouth like a lion, but he didn't expect such a simple request, and he agreed very readily while being happy.

"My king has one more request."

"Just say it, my lord." Zhan Taihong thought to himself: Sure enough, it's not that simple.

"I hope the general will send someone to protect Mr. Lu." After Ming Jue finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Lu Hengxiu who was beside her. Lu Hengxiu was astonished.Ming Jue said silently in his heart: Will I forget you?In short, why should you be so surprised.

Zhan Taihong saw that he still didn't open his mouth like a lion, so he put his hanging heart back into his stomach.He settled down and said: "My lord, don't worry, this is originally the duty of the last general. The last general will send Polu to protect Mr. Lu tomorrow." After speaking, he secretly exclaimed in his heart: I don't know who this Lu Hengxiu is. It actually made him value it so much.

Once the plan is established, every second counts to act.Lu Hengxiu took time out of his busy schedule to write up the strategy letter and sent someone to send it to the court.

The night before departure, Ming Jue and Lu Hengxiu talked sleeplessly.

"In short, life and death are unpredictable. If I die on the battlefield, you can follow Zhan Taihong as an aide." After Ming Jue finished speaking, he felt wrong, and said, "No, Zhan Taihong is a rough person. You follow Zhan Taihong." He probably won't be at ease. It's better to be a teacher. Teaching with your talent and learning will definitely make the world full of peaches and plums. Although the world is chaotic, it won't go to the south of the Yangtze River. Wouldn't it be a good place for you to fall to the south of the Yangtze River? "

Lu Hengxiu was displeased to hear Ming Jue's unrestrained words, and said sarcastically, "Your Highness left a last message before he died? Why is it as if the husband is about to die in battle and asks his wife to remarry?"

"It's so simple, don't be angry, if you are a woman, I will really marry you." Ming Jue said with a playful smile, hugging Lu Hengxiu in his arms.

"Who told you this?" Lu Hengxiu forcefully broke away from Ming Jue's restraint, blushing all over his face.

Seeing that Lu Hengxiu was really angry, Ming Jue put away his cynical face.He reached out and grabbed a red thread from his collar, and slowly pulled it out to Lu Hengxiu's eyes.

Lu Hengxiu raised his eyes and saw that it was the amulet he had given Ming Jue before.The amulet has been worn for a long time, and has long lost its original bright color.Lu Hengxiu moved slightly in his heart and said, "Has Your Highness always been carrying this half-new thing?"

"Hey! If you want a new amulet, the longer you wear it, the more effective it will be. I will carry what you gave me for the rest of my life." As he spoke, he put the dim-colored amulet back into his collar like a baby.

Lu Hengxiu smiled helplessly. He and Mingjue walked hand in hand all the way. Although they encountered many hardships, they were able to turn bad luck into good luck in the end. This time, I believe that Mingjue will also be able to make good fortune.

This time the number of people on the expedition was much smaller than before, only the [-] fine cavalry selected by Zhan Taihong and Ming Jue's personal guards with hundreds of people, the danger also doubled.But there is no one in the neat army to be afraid, they are determined to defend the land under their feet with the determination to die.

Zhan Taihong personally brought the high-ranking generals to see him off, and brought several carts of drinks.

"Soldiers, going to Guanshan thousands of miles, life and death are unpredictable. Are you afraid?" Ming Jue learned to mobilize morale before departure.

"Don't be afraid." The soldiers shouted loudly.

"From today onwards, you are my Mingjue's brothers, you will share the blessings and share the hardships, okay?"

"it is good"

"Brothers, defend your home and country, guard your land and open up borders, make contributions and make achievements, and become a marquis and pay homage to your ministers." Ming Jue said with arrogance, his voice was broken into a broken gong.

"Defend the home and defend the country, defend the land and open up the frontier, make meritorious deeds, seal the marquis and pay homage to the prime minister." The shouts of the soldiers echoed in the sky over and over again.

The same is true of the targets of the soldiers fighting on the battlefield, although most of them ended up dying on the battlefield and burying their bones in the yellow sand.But when it comes to 'making contributions, becoming a marquis and worshiping a minister', does that aspiring man not yearn for it?

"My lord, drink this bowl!" Zhan Taihong asked Ming Jue with the wine he had poured long ago. Seeing Ming Jue working so hard, he knew in his heart that Ming Jue was not something in the pool, and he admired him even more.

Ming Jue took it and drank it down, and the more than 5000 soldiers behind him also took up the wine in their hands and drank it.After drinking, Ming Jue raised his hand and slammed the wine bowl on the ground, saying: Let's go.

The soldiers on the city tower blew their horns with a forceful tone, and the soldiers jumped on their horses one after another, and the army turned around and set off.

Lu Hengxiu, who had been standing silently by the side, didn't say a word to Ming Jue. He stood for a long time and watched Ming Jue's army leave.Ming Jue and his party were cavalry, so their speed was naturally very fast. It didn't take long before they became a black shadow on the distant horizon, and gradually even the black shadow disappeared.

"Master Lu, don't look, let's go back!" Zhan Taihong waited with Lu Hengxiu, even the dust raised by the horseshoes of the army had settled, and reminded Lu Hengxiu when he saw that Lu Hengxiu had no momentum to go back.

He reminded Lu Heng of the scriptures before he realized his gaffe, and quickly returned to God and said, "I made the general laugh at you." After saying that, he followed the crowd back to the city in a daze.

About half a month later, the letter of invitation written by Lu Hengxiu was delivered to King Qing's desk.

Since the death of Prince Xiao Yan, there have been many wars.Emperor Mingrui was exhausted by the general affairs of the court and the two or three consecutive battle reports, plus the recurrence of old injuries from his early battles, he couldn't afford to fall ill.Later, the condition finally got better, but Queen Li passed away again.Excessive grief combined with the strain of holding on to preside over the funeral.Completely defeated Emperor Mingrui who was already sick, and now he can lie awake for less than three hours a day, even if he doesn't want to let go of the power in his hands, he can't help it.

Emperor Mingrui's crown prince has gone, and he has no other sons.Therefore, as the eldest son, King Qing supervised the country, and the cabinet assisted the government to handle state affairs.So the letter of invitation to fight that should have been sent to Emperor Mingrui's imperial case was now lying on King Qing's table, waiting for Zhu's approval of the decision.

King Qing opened the booklet, and saw that the cabinet's vote was intended to agree to the matter.After thinking about it, he didn't have any reason to refuse. Anyway, Ming Jue, the former crown prince, would never have another chance to compete with him for the throne.Now that he was willing to foolishly go to the front line to work for himself, why didn't he agree.Thinking of this, he mentioned that Zhu Bi had added the word "agree" to the restoration of the cabinet.

He now has the power to oversee the country, acting as the emperor's Zhu Pi, but he is still unable to get the title of prince, which makes him feel resentful every time he thinks about it.He hated his father, who promoted him with one hand but refused to simply hand over the throne to him to inherit, but no matter how much he hated him, he would go to the palace every day to pay his respects, pretending to be someone who was looking forward to his father. A speedy recovery son.

"Is father awake today?" Prince Qing walked to Emperor Mingrui's bedroom with his hands behind his back and asked the guarding chief eunuch.

"Hey, His Royal Highness King Qing has arrived." The old eunuch exclaimed, wiped away tears that did not exist and continued, "It's really hard for His Royal Highness to be filial, and to take time out to see the Emperor every day with all kinds of opportunities. I just woke up, feeling fine."

"Sure, I should go in and have a look." King Qing raised his foot to go in, and said through the bright yellow dragon tent, "My son, pay respects to Father, is Father okay?"

"It's King Qing! Come and sit down." Emperor Ming Rui lifted the curtain, patted his bed and said.

"I dare not." King Qing did not sit on Emperor Mingrui's dragon bed as promised, but got up and sat on a nearby stool.

"You are always so cautious," Emperor Mingrui said, and no one could hear the compliments. "Is there any major event recently? Are you still fighting with the Mongolian army?" Emperor Mingrui cared about political affairs as soon as he got better. , but he didn't have much interest in the hard-working King Qing.

However, although King Qing was dissatisfied, he didn't show it well, and answered Emperor Mingrui's questions one by one.Then he opened his mouth to beat Emperor Rui and said: "Father, many ministers have written to ask for the appointment of a crown prince, saying that the country cannot live without a king. However, they were all reprimanded by the son-in-law. The son-in-law said: Father is in the prime of life, how dare they dare?" It is really bad intentions to say that a country cannot be without a king for a day."

"You are right." Emperor Rui said.In fact, King Qing had already blatantly reminded him to make himself the crown prince, but he still chose to ignore it.

King Qing didn't get the response he wanted, so he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "You don't want to make me the crown prince, so will someone else succeed you after you die? The heir you expected is dead, and your favorite King Rui is just a waste, and now he is just a common man. As for your other sons, hmph, if you make a yellow-haired boy the crown prince, I am afraid that your wolf-like brothers will snatch the throne like you In the past. Father, father! Do you have a better choice besides me?"

He also thought that he had nothing to worry about, he was just waiting for his father to come to heaven.Sooner or later, it will be your own thing, so don't worry too much.
