Pet wife Imperial Examination Road

"What's the matter? Even if something really happened, we can't be found out. Besides, we didn't take any medicine or do anything."

"This son-in-law sees that the emperor's face is not very good, and he heard that he fell ill a few days ago, and he always feels uneasy."

"Since ancient times, father died and son succeeded, so don't think too much about it."

Nan Rong Zehan felt relieved when he thought about the same reasoning.

The next morning, Nanrong Zehan just walked in from the gate of the palace, and a group of people surrounded him, nothing more than to congratulate him for being an expert in leading troops. He won the battle so quickly and returned to the court. Excellent general.

Ding Guogong walked behind those people and said, "It was really a big loss when we didn't encounter a war before, but why didn't I know that His Highness Fourth Highness still has this ability. Ten years ago when the Southern Qiang Kingdom attacked our court vigorously , I have never heard that His Highness Fourth mentioned a single word about the war. Oh, Your Highness, don’t blame the old minister for being confused. Ten years ago, His Highness was still a kid. How could he know anything about the battlefield, and he can advance by leaps and bounds within ten years? Your Highness is really a good-looking talent, but the old minister was blind before and really didn't realize it."

Nanrong Zehan heard Duke Ding's loud noise, and was afraid that others would not hear him, so he had no choice but to say with a smile on his face, "Duke Ding, I was only a little educated when I was young, and I only worked hard to read some books in the past few years. Duke Ding, at this age, naturally you don’t need much, after all, you will reach the age of seventy in a few years, and when the time comes, this hall will tell the emperor to let you retire and return to your hometown, and will never let you spend your old age alone in the capital.”

"Hmph, a half-grown boy is not sensible." Ding Guogong understood the sarcasm in it, and didn't want to make this a big deal, so he shook his sleeves and walked to the side.

Zheng Shangshu heard the conversation between the two, moved closer to Ding Guogong, and talked to him softly, "Why do you bother, how many people are facing him now, even if you don't want to, don't say it blatantly."

Duke Ding didn't take it seriously, "You are not at the age of a bad old man like me, if you don't talk about it, the bad old man will be this villain."

"Mr. Ding, although we don't say anything, we know it clearly in our hearts. It's just that it's really not a good time to talk about it. It depends on the emperor's attitude."

Emperor Xuande praised the four princes for their achievements in repelling the enemy, rewarded a hundred taels of gold and hundreds of silks and satins, and ordered the reconstruction of the four princes' mansion in the capital, but did not say a word about whether to establish a prince, which made everyone doubt the emperor's attitude .

"Tu Zhuo, are you ready to prepare everything?"

"Father, my son is ready to go, just waiting for your word."

Tu Lu nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, "The last time, without my permission, why did you go to Angzhou City without my permission? I'm not afraid of being recognized by others."

"Father, my son deliberately wore the clothes of the Northern Dynasty and asked his servants to make the hair accessories of the Northern Dynasty. Walking in the crowd, there is no distinction between the people of the Northern Dynasty."

That's why Tu Lu didn't bother with him, "Stop going out for wandering in the future, you are very playful at your age, and you can understand as a husband, just don't delay the plan."

"My son, thank you father for your understanding."

After Tu Zhuo walked out of the room, he kicked his entourage, "You said this?"

The entourage replied tremblingly, "Master, the general will ask you where you have been every time, I dare not answer."

"It's not that you don't want to answer, but don't say it so clearly. Maybe even such trivial things will make father worry."

"Little remember."

"Follow me to the barracks to inspect the officers and soldiers again to make sure everything is safe."

Feng Lanxiao said before that he wanted to take Yun Yun out, but Yun Yun didn't take it to heart at all, he just thought it was a joke, and after Feng Lanxiao led the horse over, he realized that he was serious.

"Ayun, pack up your things quickly, I told you to take you out."

Yun Yun hesitated and said again and again, "Let's not go out, Cheng Mu said these few days are a special period, it's best not to walk around, in case something happens."

"It'll be fine, besides, the place I'm going to is not far from here, and I can come back by riding a horse in an hour or two."

It was not easy for Yun Yun to refuse other people's invitations. After leaving a note for Cheng Mu, the two left the barracks on horseback.

On the other side of the training ground, Cheng Mu was patrolling back and forth to watch the soldiers practice swords, but unexpected news came from the front.

After Cao Yan read the message, Cheng Mu understood that the final confrontation was coming.

"All officers and soldiers can leave camp and go to Bianzhou. The army of the Southern Qiang Kingdom is attacking."

The sudden battle made the entire army camp panic. Less than a month after the victory, the Southern Qiang Kingdom made a comeback. In the past, the Southern Manzis never attacked immediately after their defeat.

When Cheng Mu returned to the camp, Yun Yun was nowhere to be seen, only a line of words on the note on the table, "Let's go to Bianzhou with Fenglan and come back before night."

"Damn it!" Cheng Mu crumpled the note into a strip and threw it into the brazier, before packing up the things in the tent.

When everyone packed their things and was about to leave, Cheng Mu and Nan Rong Zeyu met to discuss this matter.

"When did they leave?"

Cheng Mu replied, "It should have been nearly three hours. We just went to train in the morning, and Mr. Feng took Ah Yun away."

"The Southern Qiang Kingdom attacked the city more than an hour ago, which means they are probably in Bianzhou City."

"Don't worry, Lan Xiao is very skilled in martial arts, and there's no problem with Yun Yun. Right now, we need to speed up."

"Report, there is news from the front that Bianzhou City has been captured."

Cheng Mu and Nan Rong Zeyu looked at each other and said, "It's only been more than an hour, why did they suddenly attack the city, where are the officers and soldiers defending the city!"

The spies said, "Our people didn't see anyone guarding the city, and the people from the Nanqiang Kingdom directly broke into the city gate and entered."

"understood."

"Based on your years of experience, what should we do now?"

Cheng Mu took out a map from his pocket and said, "The top of Bianzhou is Qingzhou, and then all the way north will directly reach the capital. This time, the Nanmanzi's ambition is not small. We must catch up with them before they leave Qingzhou, and then march north Annihilation in the process, we must not let them get close to the capital."

"Then we should catch up with their troops now."

"Find someone to send news to Qingzhou quickly, and we must defend Qingzhou, as long as it lasts, as long as we can catch up."

Once the war breaks out, the lives of the people will be miserable.After Bianzhou City was conquered, Nanmanzi set fire to a large area, drove all the refugees together, and locked the city gates tightly to prevent anyone from passing through. Except for some of the 20 troops left to guard the city gates, the rest continued to go north to Qingzhou.
