The prince does not fight for the heir

After so many years of fighting, the Darong Empire has only controlled a large area of ​​the Central Plains. The north of the Great Wall is controlled by the Oara Khanate and the Mohe tribe, all of which are the confidants of the Darong Empire.

In addition, in the northwest, there were the Seven Guards of the Hui and Qiang who nominally belonged to the Darong Empire, and in the southwest, there were Tubo chieftain tribes who bowed their heads to the Darong Empire.

As for other regions, they did not belong to China until later generations, such as Korea and Fusang in the northeast, Siam, Annan, Myanmar, Luzon in the south, and so on.

In order to reach the prosperous territory of Fu Xuechen's previous life in the Qing Dynasty, the Darong Empire had to stabilize the northwest and southwest, wipe out Wala and Mohe, and then make all the surrounding small countries surrender.

Fu Rong didn't know where the urgent report of the [-]-mile border crossing came from today, so Fu Xuechen could only guess whether the Oara Khanate had committed crimes?Those nomads always like to launch southward invasion in autumn, plundering many supplies and population from the Central Plains to help them survive the cold winter.

However, in the successive years of battles before the founding of the country, both the Central Plains and Oirat were severely injured. In comparison, Oirat suffered more serious injuries, but Oirat can recover so quickly. Has it become an enemy of the Central Plains Darong again?
In the afternoon, Fu Xuechen became a little restless. Fortunately, she only had one class in the afternoon, so she simply reported to Zhu Jiuniang and left the Jinghua Garden in advance.

Fu Rong ran to the stables to look for her coachman. Fu Xuechen was waiting at the gate, when she heard the sound of hoofbeats, she looked up and saw Yun Zuo leading the eunuch Li Zhen and several Qingwei on horseback.

Seeing Fu Xuechen downstairs from a distance, Yoon Zuo's originally dignified expression eased instantly, stopped the horse, threw all the entourage outside the gate, dismounted and walked towards Fu Xuechen who was waiting for the carriage downstairs.

"Your Highness!" Fu Xuechen was also slightly happy when he saw him, and he would know what happened just by asking him.

As the secretary of the girls' school, Yun Zuo would occasionally come to Jinghua Garden. Basically, every time he came, he would ask Li Zhen to call Fu Xuechen to the office dedicated to offering wine, and report to the residence recently. Give Fu Xuechen the news that the girls' school can repost on the Internet, and exchange questions with Fu Xuechen about the production and sales of various industrial products.

Fu Xuechen has long been accustomed to regard Yoon Zuo as his closest business partner, and has received a lot of dividends from him in the past two years. He is not surprised to see the other party rushing towards him, but it is the first time that the two have met outside .

Yun Zuo didn't have time to enter the Jinghua Garden, and Fu Xuechen went to the office to meet and chat privately like before, so he could only take her for a walk along the inner wall path of the Jinghua Garden.

"Northwest Qiang Qiwei rebelled!" Yun Zuo didn't take a few steps, and answered Fu Xuechen's questioning expression: "Just three days ago, Babaili sent an urgent summons to Yuqian who just arrived this morning."

"Going back to Qiang in the northwest? It's okay, okay!" Fu Xuechen was slightly relieved to hear that it wasn't the Oara Khanate in the north.

Yunzuo nodded, then shook his head and said: "Father was furious, and immediately appointed Marquis Zhenxi as the vanguard, and sent troops within three days. My second brother was in command, with Duke Li and Duke Yi as assistants. The army will go out in ten days. The Marquis of the North is also on the expedition."

Fu Xuechen's eyes widened, and she knew that peace was over, but if there was a war, the entire Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies had to be mobilized, and most of the Wu Xun who still maintained their fighting strength in the court would not be able to escape. It's time!However, what Yoon Joo said next surprised her even more.

"I will also go to this battle, my father asked me to join the army with my second brother to hone, so..." Yoon Zuo said with apologetic face: "...your brother will also go with me."

Fu Xuechen blinked, so cruel?The father is going to the battlefield, so is the son?
Yun Zuo paused and said again: "If you don't want your brother to go too, I can decide to let him stay in the capital, and lead the troops of the Qingwei Camp who stayed in the Jinghua Garden to continue to patrol the Jinghua Garden."

Fu Xuechen shook his head: "Your Highness, you don't have to worry about my thoughts, my brother is willing to go, so let him go!"

Yun Zuo didn't say anything more. Of course Fu Yuchen was willing to go. As the leader of the Qingwei battalion and the post-general, after two years and so many days of torture, how could he miss the opportunity to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield.

In other words, that guy has gradually grown in the past two years, and his stature has grown rapidly. Thanks to eating and training with the Qingwei in the Qingwei camp every day, he has quickly faded from the exercise of two years ago. Delicate and handsome, from skin color to figure, she is less and less like a twin with Fu Xuechen.

And Fu Xuechen has also gradually grown in the past two years, gradually showing the outline of a girl, her face gradually lost her childishness, her brows and eyes became more pure and charming, from a young girl to a young girl, like a lotus half-opened, slim and graceful.

Almost 15 years old!Yun Zuo secretly regretted that he wanted to wait until the end of the year when the other party turned fifteen years old, and then go to reveal his intention to marry the other party to his mother, but unexpectedly, the Northwest War suddenly came, and this matter had to be delayed again.

Fortunately, the Northwest Huiqiang is not strong, and it is not as difficult as the Oara Khanate. It is very hopeful that it can be resolved within two years, and it will not be too late to mention it when the teacher returns to the dynasty.

Looking at Fu Xuechen reluctantly, Yoon Zuo said again: "The battle is imminent, maybe I won't have time to come again after today, I came here this time just to tell you that after I leave, Li Zhen will stay here, those factories built before, He is also watching, if you have something, you can ask him to solve it."

Fu Xuechen was startled when he heard the words: "You... are you here to say goodbye to me?"

Yun Zuo nodded, turned around and was about to mount his horse and leave, Fu Xuechen called out quickly: "Wait!"

"?" Yoon-joo turned around.

Fu Xuechen took out a newly made peace knot from her sleeve pocket, the whole body was made of orange silk, and there was a small purse of the same color on top of the knot, which contained a peace talisman, which she made for herself The peace talisman was given by her mother, Mrs. Xie. There must have been five or six such amulets given to her one after another by Mrs. Xie.

"Give it to you! It's a peace talisman inside." Fu Xuechen handed the peace knot to Yun Zuo, but unfortunately the other party left in a hurry, the only small gift she can take out now, the color is not the golden yellow commonly used by the royal family, if not It is very likely that they will not see each other in the next few days, and she will not send blessings to the other party in this way in a hurry.

"Thank you!" Yoon Zuo was overjoyed, and quickly took the safety knot and pinched it in his hand, and seemed to be able to feel a bit of body temperature brought by the safety knot on the safety knot in a trance.

Fu Xuechen told him seriously: "Remember to take care of yourself!"

"I will!" Yoon Zuo nodded, got on the horse, stared at Fu Xuechen for a few more times, and then rode away.

Fu Rong looked for it, and accompanied Fu Xuechen into her carriage, and drove back to Fu's residence.

Fu Xuechen was a little silent, Fu Rong couldn't help asking softly: "Miss, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince came to look for you again just now?"

"En!" Fu Xuechen nodded: "I know what you just said about the [-]-mile emergency report. The Northwest Huiqiang Seven Guards rebelled. The imperial court has decided to send troops to conquer. Your Highness is here to say goodbye to me, and he is also going to the battlefield. "

"What?!" Fu Rong was stunned for a moment, before she couldn't help saying: "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is also going to fight?"

Fu Xuechen smiled wryly: "This time the matter is a bit serious, my father was appointed general by the emperor, and my brother has to go too!"

"!!" Fu Rong's jaw almost dropped.

Fu Xuechen sighed softly. She wasn't too worried about Yunzuo and Fu Yuchen. The dignified prince was not the commander in chief, but just followed him to study and exercise. Among the thousands of troops, there must be no danger. Fu Yuchen was just as safe with him.

What is worth worrying about is that his father, Fu Chuanyi, was actually sent into the vanguard army. He must be fighting on the front line. Although he is a general, he is always protected by his own soldiers, but as long as he goes to the battlefield, he will inevitably be in danger. , maybe there is a flying arrow somewhere, and if you can't dodge it, you will be injured.

Back home, even Mrs. Xie had received the news that everyone in the Fu family was busy under her command, which was more than Fu Yuchen's departure ten days later, and Fu Chuanyi's expedition within three days.

The personal weapons he put in the mansion need to be taken out for maintenance, and the armor also needs to be carefully inspected, oiled and polished when it needs to be oiled. In addition, several sets of clothes, boots, and various medicines need to be prepared, all packed well. .

The more than a dozen family guards kept in the mansion were also divided into two groups this time, one group followed and protected Fu Chuanyi, and the other group followed and protected Fu Yuchen. Their weapons, armor and other luggage would naturally be provided by Fu's house.

Before the army was deployed, the general's home was filled with an atmosphere of war preparation, but this was the family of the general and the residence of Wu Xun.

Fu Xuechen followed closely beside Xie, silently learning Xie's methodical, busy but not chaotic arrangements. If she also married into the Wu Xun family in the future, how to prepare her husband for the expedition is what she should learn Unless the next hundred years are peaceful, or she is married into a literati family.

It wasn't until evening that Fu Chuanyi, Fu Yuchen and his son returned to the mansion one after another, and had a reunion dinner with their families.Later, the in-laws that Fu Rushuang was engaged to sent a bunch of high-quality wound medicines and antidotes to show their sincerity.

After the meal, Fu Xuechen took the initiative to go to Fu Yuchen's yard for the first time.

"Peace knot?" Fu Yuchen took a dark purple peace knot from his sister, a little surprised.

Fu Xuechen nodded: "There is a peace talisman that my mother begged for inside, but I tied this peace knot myself."

"Thank you very much!" Fu Yuchen smiled so much that his brows and eyes were curved: "It's still the color I like, so I have a heart!"

The two brothers and sisters didn't have much time to chat, and soon Fu An came to spread the word, saying that the master was waiting for the young master in the study, Fu Yuchen didn't dare to delay, and left in response, Fu Xuechen sighed secretly, and returned to his yard.

For several nights in a row, Fu Chuanyi also arrested Fu Yuchen to go to the study for a heated discussion. As a father, he wished to pass on the ancestral leading knowledge to his son, but Fu Yuchen occasionally had his own opinions and refused to accept them all. Whenever the whole family is close to the study, they can always hear their quarrels.

It's a pity that Fu Chuanyi still had to take a step first, and there was no time to argue with his son about many things. On the third day, before the sun was bright, he led his family guards out, completed the last formalities before the expedition, and left the city gate to the west. Go, because he is a vanguard army, he pays attention to the speed of soldiers, so he left quietly, and no one in the city saw him off.

But it will be different when the army is officially launched ten days later. The two princes who lead the army, the imperial superintendent, the commander-in-chief and the deputy, and the generals under their command accepted the imperial decree to go out in front of the emperor and held a grand ceremony. After the swearing-in ceremony, they will lead their respective pro-army guards, cross the long street, and march towards the west gate.

The army has already been purged, and they are waiting in the outskirts, waiting for the leaders to arrive before they can leave camp.

The people who had received the news in advance lined up to see each other off. Fu Xuechen and Fu Rushuang, under the leadership of Mrs. Xie, booked seats by the window in the roadside restaurant early and looked out from the window on the second floor.

It was an expedition, not a triumphant return, so there was no cheering or noise, and the flags passed, and the people on the side of the road just kept silent, silently watching the well-dressed generals riding past on horseback.

The sergeants were clearly armored, with swords and guns like a forest, and they lined up across the street at a relatively neat pace. They were mighty and murderous.

It has been almost three years since time travel, and this is the first time Fu Xuechen has seen such a scene. Compared with the military parade in the previous life, apart from the fact that the order is not as good, the chilling aura is more obvious against the cold light of the cold weapons. , It is worthy of being the hero who won the country by force. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the appearance of the army was far better than that of the long-lasting prosperity.

The team quickly passed halfway, and when several people saw the second prince riding a tall horse among the Chinese army guards, they also saw the sixth prince who was not far behind his horse, and behind the sixth prince, he followed Qing Wei in parallel. The battalion commanders Zhang Chuyang and Fu Yuchen.

The second prince is actually 21 years old, and he will be 22 in a few months. He is already an adult and has a very burly figure. He usually wears robes and doesn't show it. Now he is fully clothed, carrying a long spear, and he is full of domineering aura.

In contrast, the sixth prince who is carrying the Yanyue knife is relatively slender, but also full of agility. Zhang Chuyang, who is carrying a long halberd, has a much stronger figure. Fu Yuchen is almost the same as the sixth prince. long gun.

Fu Xuechen blinked in surprise, it was the first time she knew that these people were good at these long weapons, and she felt that Fu Yuchen was really weak!Probably compared to strength, he is better at moves.

As if there was a telepathy, when Fu Xuechen saw the sixth prince and Fu Yuchen, the two also raised their heads to look at the restaurant one after another, and met their eyes from a distance, pouring out a bit of surprise and reluctance.

It's a pity that it was only for a moment. As the team moved forward, the eyes of the three of them were wrong, and only Fu Xuechen was left, looking at the backs of the two people in the distance.

"If the Second Prince wins and returns triumphantly this time, the Holy Majesty will not be able to delay any longer and will have to establish the crown prince." Mrs. Xie couldn't help muttering softly.

Fu Xuechen knew why her mother said that. Emperor Yuan'an had dragged on for a year and a half to not set up a reserve, but it was a pity that man's calculations were not as good as heaven's calculations. When the frontier incident happened, the second prince, who had been in the army for a long time, had another chance to lead the army. If that is the case, Emperor Yuan'an can't drag it on any longer, he has to make the second prince the crown prince.

What a pity for the Fourth Prince!Fu Xuechen felt a little sympathetic to the current empress, because she was weaker than the second prince in the army, and also had a disadvantage because the fourth prince came of age later, after so long a stalemate in the fight, she finally lost to Tian Shi.
