Chapter 450
Xu Lianguo wanted to say a few more words, but Prime Minister Song Jing shook his head gently at him.
Since the emperor has made up his mind to fight this battle, the food and supplies must be sent out and sent from Chang'an is soon to be allocated beyond the rest of the place.
So, although it is a bit far away, it is the best choice.
Xuanzong looked up at His Highness and ministers, "All my dear ministers, who is willing to carry food and grass to the border to retreat to the enemy."
this.
this.
A silence.
Everyone knows that escorting food and grass is a chore.
Although it is the end of the first lunar month now, it is still cold in the north. Who doesn’t want to be at home? His wife and children are warm on the kang.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Xuanzong felt a little disappointed.
I couldn't help but sigh slightly, hey, it's said that raising troops for a thousand days is a temporary moment, and no one stood up at the critical moment. It seems that the salary must be reduced again.
At this time, among the ministers of Your Highness and the Minister of War, Chen Junru, had a burst of blood rushing into his mind.
Since the official reinstatement, I can be said to have not made any achievements.
More importantly, his son is Shen Buyi and will soon become a son-in-law, but he is still a second-rank official.
Therefore, I must fight for a breath and strive for another level of progress.
For yourself and for your son.
Thinking of this, he flashed out and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go."
When he saw that it was Chen Junru, Emperor Xuanzong was very happy and said with a smile: "Okay, Chen Aiqing, I will grant you the governor of food and grass, and set out tomorrow and head to Hebei."
To put it bluntly, the governor of grain and grass was just a temporary empty position. Chen Junru didn't care much, but he was a little anxious when he set out tomorrow. The emperor was transporting all the grain and grass in the Ministry of War to Juyongguan, which means that Juyongguan was in urgent need.
But, after having dinner at Juyongguan, what should the Imperial Guard in the city do?
This problem made Xu Lianguo, the Minister of War, a little worried.
Originally, if Chen Junru was there, he would have had a helper, but now, as soon as Chen Junru left, the Ministry of War would be in short supply.
After going to court, Xu Lianguo headed straight to Shen Mansion.
I heard that the Minister of War was here, so Chen Buyi had to bite the bullet and come out to see him.
After all, the positions are placed there.
"Mr. Xu, please have tea," Chen Buyi brought a cup of tea and placed it respectfully beside Xu Lianguo.
Xu Lianguo quickly stood up, "I dare not be the one, the prince consort Shen does not need to be polite."
Chen Junru was very happy and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, you and my colleagues are not easy to be a junior at home, so it is worth serving you tea."
After the courtesy, both sides turned to the topic.
"Mr. Shen, I don't know when you will be able to return as soon as you leave. The food and supplies of the imperial guards in the city will become a big problem."
Xu Lianguo said and sighed repeatedly.
Chen Junru couldn't help but sigh, "I can only take one step and look at it."
Chen Buyi, who was standing beside him, started to laugh.
"Mr. Xu, Dad, why are you so pessimistic? Seeing the ice and snow melt, spring is coming. The wild vegetables in the fields are as numerous as cows, and they will always fill their stomachs."
Xu Lianguo smiled helplessly, "The thing has to be like this now. However, the dignified Imperial Guard went out to dig wild vegetables and spread it, which would probably make the court lose its vigor."
Chen Junru also shook his head.
"This is also a helpless move."
While the two of them were talking here, Chen Buyi quietly left the Shen family and headed straight for Xingqing Palace.
Emperor Xuanzong was stunned when he heard that Chen Buyi was looking for a meeting. This kid hadn't come to see him for a long time.
"Quickly announce."
Entering the imperial study room, Chen Buyi knelt down respectfully and kowtowed respectfully, "I am the uncle Chen Buyi, long live my respect, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Aiqing Chen, get up."
Xuanzong winked at Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi understood it and moved a round pier to let Chen Buyi sit down.
"Aiqing Chen, why did you come to my Xingqing Palace today?"
Xuanzong was straightforward and spoke out actively.
Chen Buyi bowed and said respectfully: "Go back to the emperor, I heard that my father was going to carry food and grass to Juyongguan, Hebei on the day, and I want to go on the battle on behalf of my father."
On the expedition on behalf of his father.
Chen Buyi wants to go to the war on behalf of his father?
Xuanzong and Gao Lishi were both stunned.
What is this operation?
"Your Majesty, my father is old," (actually only fifty years old,) "In ancient times, Mulan joined the army for her father. The weak minister was worried that his father would not be able to bear it, so he was willing to go to Juyongguan."
Chen Buyi actually had a little selfishness. The Khitan incident had a lot to do with his pursuit of Wanyan Yong, so since he had gotten into trouble, he would take care of it to the end.
Furthermore, although his father is not old, in one sentence, he has been separated from the battle formation for a long time. If he has a few shortcomings, he doesn't want to cry with his old lady Liu every day.
However, Xuanzong's idea was just the opposite. His daughter would marry Chen Buyi this year. If there was a big deal and a little bit of a problem, it would be fine if he died, but he would just choose another one. But if he was disabled and disabled, his precious daughter would not marry him.
Gao Lishi naturally understood Xuanzong's concerns, so he took a step forward.
He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the road to transporting food and grass is more difficult. There is no war in the Great Wall. It's just that we went on a war on behalf of our father. There is no precedent for our dynasty." Half of the words and half of them were left. This is the cleverness of Gao Lishi, but he knew that Xuanzong would definitely understand.
Xuanzong immediately understood what Gao Lishi meant.
There is no war in the Great Wall, that is, Chen Buyi escorts food and grass, and there is no risk. There is no precedent for going on the expedition on behalf of his father. That means that Chen Buyi is not familiar with military affairs, although he is the title of a quasi-son consort.
Xuanzong nodded with satisfaction.
"Aiqing Chen, you are not familiar with military affairs. It may be inappropriate to go on the expedition on behalf of your father. I am afraid that it is inappropriate to let you go on the expedition with your father and follow you to take care of your father. What do you think?"
Chen Buyi instantly understood what Emperor Xuanzong meant to go to war with his father. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to follow him and hang out.
As long as the food and supplies are delivered, the father and son will make a great contribution and be promoted, which is a must.
Well, since the emperor has spoken, don’t let the emperor down.
"I am not easy to be impressed, so I follow the order."
Seeing Chen Buyi leaving happily, Xuanzong turned to look at Gao Lishi, "You said, why is Chen Buyi?"
Gorix smiled and shook his head.
"I can't guess his intentions."
Emperor Xuanzong smiled while twisting his beard.
"He is a person who starts and ends well."
Chen Mansion, Chen Jun sent Xu Lianguo away with him, and then he had to treat Chen Buyi and went to Juyongguan with him.
He slapped the table in anger.
