Chapter 261 Share the worries for the emperor

I hesitated, but walked towards him step by step.

His eyes always fell on the scriptures. Only when I stood in front of him, he raised his head and glanced at me lightly, and said with a chuckle: "Are you awake?"

His glance was as if he were looking at a stranger, with a look of alienation and indifference that could not be concealed.

Infinite sadness suddenly surged in my heart.

But just for a moment, he lowered his eyes and looked at the scriptures again. His thick long eyelashes moved slightly, his expression was handsome and calm, like a scholar who only read the books of sages.

I said "Yes" and said softly: "Your Majesty, do you want to change your clothes?"

Liang Xianyi put down his book, got off the couch, and stood in front of me and said, "The war is about to begin. I will fight it myself, not at home. Whatever you want, just tell Eunuch Du to do it."

"it is good."

He was startled for a moment, then slowly stretched out his arms to hug me, and his cool lips fell on my ear: "When I come back, we will go back to the palace."

His breath was like a breeze, and his arms tightened more and more, as if he wanted to embed me into his body.

I suddenly realized that I was just worrying in vain last night.

Daying is going to fight with Wala. It is the time to hire people. Fan Li is brave and good at fighting. Even if Liang Xianyi finds out something, he will not deal with Fan Li easily.

As long as Fan Li doesn't do anything special, as long as I am willing to return to the palace.

After the war, the commander returned to the court, and I also returned to the palace. Fan Li continued to serve as his border guard general. In the future, he would marry a wife and have children, and live a safe and smooth life.

That's fine, that's the most satisfactory result.

I want nothing more.

I pruned the fallen flower branches in the yard.

Linghua went to the room to get my cloak and came back with a pale face. While tying the brocade ribbon on me, she whispered: "I'm afraid General Fan is in trouble. When I entered the room just now, Cui'er and Lianxin were talking. It is said that the emperor sent General Fan to lead the vanguard army. Yesterday, news came that the vanguard army was almost wiped out. Fortunately, the Longmen Guards were captured. Cirrus, I don’t know how to march and fight, but I thought, Longmen Guards It was originally occupied by the Mongols, and the cities were easy to defend and difficult to attack. Didn't the vanguard army die at the end of their journey? The whole army was wiped out... I don't know whether General Fan is alive or dead..."

With a strong hand, a large blooming lotus chrysanthemum was cut off.

"Cirrus." Linghua leaned over and picked it up, her words already choked with sobs.

I took the chrysanthemum, put it to my nose, smelled it, and said, "Ask Eunuch Du to come over."

Eunuch Du came very quickly and said with a respectful smile: "Master, what are your orders?"

I was extremely disgusted with his flattering face, not to mention that when Xing'er died, he was there, so I didn't even look at him. I just said, "I want to see Zhu Qing, the emperor's personal attendant. Go and tell him. I have a few words." If it's important, tell him face to face."

Eunuch Du was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Zhu Qing went to the expedition with the imperial commander."

After thinking for a moment, I asked, "Is Commander Liang here?"

"Commander Liang is responsible for the security of the house, so he is naturally here."

I was in a daze.

Zhong Ming was a powerful martial artist and commanded the Imperial Guard, the emperor's bodyguard. I thought he must have gone with the army, but Liang Xianyi ordered him to stay.

I sighed softly and said, "Then please ask Commander Liang to come." Zhong Ming was not wearing his bright red Feiyu suit, but was wearing light armor and a long sword at his waist.

When he saw me, he didn't even look at me. He saluted seriously and said, "I wonder why Miss Lin told Wei Chen about it?"

I said, "Is Fan Li still alive?"

Zhong Ming said: "It has been three days since the imperial commander personally marched. Now the war has reached a stalemate. Doesn't Miss Lin care about your majesty's safety?"

I said: "The emperor has many personal guards around him, as well as the Beijing camp army, and General Fan is the leader of the vanguard army. After capturing the Longmen Guards, will the vanguard army still be there?"

Zhong Ming was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Wei Chen feels that Miss Lin's concern for General Fan will only put General Fan in danger. The night before the expedition, General Fan knelt outside all night to meet the Holy Lord. Miss Lin must have known Why did he come?"

"Wei Chen also tried to persuade General Fan in the same way and wanted to ask him to leave as soon as possible, but he insisted on going his own way. Fortunately, the emperor did not summon him, but only ordered him to assemble the army and go out."

"When soldiers arrive on the battlefield, they are going to kill the enemy and leave it to fate whether they live or die. But right now, Wei Chen has not received any news about General Fan."

No news is good news.

In fact, before meeting Zhong Ming, I felt that if Fan Li broke through Longmenkou, nothing would happen to others.

He is a brave general, and no matter how powerful the Wara cavalry is, he is no match for him.

I asked Zhong Ming: "How is the war going now?"

Zhong Ming looked serious: "Although we have many times more soldiers than the enemy, the Mongols have strong soldiers and horses, and our horses are obviously weak. Even if the two armies are in close combat, it will be difficult to win for a while. This battle is very difficult to fight."

I said: "I have a plan that can increase our chances of winning. Princess Sudiya of the Tumote Tribe and I are sisters, and the Tumute Tribe has always been on good terms with us. So Princess Sudiya has a weapon in her hand. A private army of ten thousand people is very capable. If we have that elite army to help us, why should Wala be afraid?"

Zhong Ming looked at me in surprise. Although his eyes were sharp, he gradually became hopeful.

He was very loyal to Liang Xianyi. If Liang Xianyi had not given the order, he would have rushed to the battlefield immediately.

Once upon a time, Liang Xianyi was taken hostage by the Tumote tribe. He openly followed Fan Li's arrangements, secretly pretended to be sick, sneaked out of the military camp, and found some martial arts masters to go to the Tumote tribe to rescue Liang Xianyi. At that time, Xing'er also in it.Unexpectedly, Liang Xianyi had his own plan to get out of trouble, and there was no need for them to rescue him.

I was suddenly a little lucky that Zhong Ming stayed. If it were Zhu Qing, I might not be easily persuaded by me.

Sure enough, Zhong Ming said: "It is impossible for the Tumote tribe to help Daying. They and Wala are both Mongolians."

I said: "Other people will tell you that it won't work, but I can persuade Sudiya to send troops. You take me to find her."

Zhong Ming shook his head: "I have been ordered to protect Miss Lin's safety. There is a war going on outside, so it is not appropriate to leave the house."

I said coldly: "What's more important, the emperor's safety or my safety? You just said that the enemy has strong troops and horses, and we can't take advantage. Now the war is in a stalemate. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be to us. If we call that Wala has won, so where else in Xuanhua City can stop Nawala from plundering?"

Zhong Ming raised his eyes to look at me: "It's hard to violate the sacred command, but I'm sorry for not daring to do so."

I looked at him and smiled, then stood up and walked straight to him.

He hurriedly lowered his eyes and saluted.

I reached out and pulled out the sword from his waist, put it against my neck, and said, "You don't want to knock me out again, do you? What you just said is very true, and I feel it deeply. On this trip, I I just want to share the emperor's worries. After persuading Sudiya to send troops, I will follow Liang's command and return home. Hurry up and prepare your horses!"

After riding out of the pass, the endless grassland in front of me was so vast and friendly, and the sun was dazzling but not too hot. I squinted my eyes slightly and rode forward.
