Chapter 83 The heart is not ancient

People living in the capital looked at Zhongshan, looking at the clouds and mist, and the mountains stood like fairy mountains, so they fascinated them and wanted to climb the mountain in person.

Xu Huizu and Fang Xiaoru were no exception. After they made an appointment, they climbed Zhongshan on the occasion of their ten-day vacation.

"Huh, Huh..." When Fang Xiaoru bent down and climbed up, his breathing was like a bellows, pressing his hands on the ground, as if he was climbing up, and finally straightened his waist.

Xu Huizu only gasped for a while, then looked calm and looked at Fang Xiaoru with a smile: "Dr. Fang is in poor physical strength!"

Fang Xiaoru waved his hand and almost sat down. He glanced at Xu Huizu and saw that Xu Huizu was nothing, standing there with a tall body straight, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

After a while, Fang Xiaoru stood on a high place and looked at the entire capital, with a look of joy gradually showing her face.

Xu Huizu saw it and smiled, "The fun of climbing is here. You have to climb by yourself to experience the state of mind at this moment."

Fang Xiaoru was still breathing, and didn't want to say much, just nodded in agreement.

Men in green robes stood everywhere on the mountainside. They didn't come up, but just silently observed the surrounding scenery. However, there were not many people climbing the mountain today, not to mention that this place is not the road leading to a certain temple, and there is nothing bare, and it is even less popular.

The two stood on the top of the mountain, looking down at the beautiful scenery between the sky and the earth with great enthusiasm.

At this moment, Xu Huizu said without turning his head: "I heard a strange story from the countryside a while ago..."

Fang Xiaoru said, "Why don't Mr. Xu say it?"

Xu Huizu said, "What I mean is that there is an old rich man in the village who has accumulated a family business for a lifetime. He has a wealthy family, and has children. He is envious of others. But once the eldest son wanted to take a concubine and asked about the money, but the rich man didn't give it to him. The eldest son was annoyed and said to his father: You will be buried sooner or later, and you will have no choice at that time! His father was even more angry and scolded: Do you want me to die sooner or later? You can get your property quickly..."

Unexpectedly, Fang Xiaoru was also angry and cursed: "It's so ruthless! It's so unfilial. Such an unfilial son should be caught and questioned by the government!"

"Dr. Fang, calm down." Xu Huizu looked at him, feeling that it seemed a bit too much to tell Fang Xiaoru and others about this matter. Fang Xiaoru was still a bit pedantic and could not tolerate such immoral things.

Xu Huizu hurriedly advised: "It's just a hearsay thing. I don't know whether it's true or not. Why should Mr. Fang be on the verge of punishment? If he really took his son to punish him, then the old rich man would be willing to do it. It's hard for a clean official to make a decision!"

"Oh..." Fang Xiaoru sighed.

Xu Huizu said calmly again: "What are you worried about with the old rich man's family business? But... if he had wealth that is rich in the world, a high position of honor, control the authority of all directions, and his son could inherit it, how would he think?"

Fang Xiaoru was stunned and silent thoughtfully.

Xu Huizu sighed and said slowly: "Some people will never fight for power and profit just for others. Even if they are sons, they should not think too quickly. They will have to wait until the father can't take him away. That's when."

...

The rain in Peking has stopped, but the ground is not dry. The sky is still gray, and the clouds block the sun and there is no sunlight at all.

There were still water droplets dripping down the eaves in the Gaoyang County Prince's Mansion. Zhu Gaoxu was walking on the eaves and could vaguely hear the metal striking sound of the "ding-ding-dang" in the yard of the overturned house. The armor had not been repaired yet, but I wonder if it could be repaired before going to war.

Zhu Gaoxu thought about what happened a few nights ago. Gao Sui originally wanted to make a big fuss about the "Crown Prince's Secret Letter"; but when he arrived at the Yan Prince's Mansion, Gao Sui was unwilling to say it himself and changed his words temporarily... He was still like that, always wanting to let his second brother play the striker so that he can hide behind him!

However, Gao Sui did not hide well this time. When Zheng He came to pass the message that day, Zhu Gaoxu had already said, "The third brother wants to overthrow the prince"; Zheng He is the confidant of the King of Yan, how can you not tell the King of Yan about such an important matter? Gao Sui did not expect to have a shield in this matter, and he would also bear some of the consequences!

At that time, Zhu Gaoxu also suggested to win over Zheng He, but Zheng He declined with the words of being loyal to the King of Yan... This person had already understood the struggle between the princes of the King of Yan and was unwilling to get involved too early.

In contrast, Huang Yan was timid and angrily criticized the prince when he had a chance, and his butt was set up early. From this point of view, Zhu Gaoxu felt that Huang Yan's vision and scheming were still a little worse than Zheng He.

At this moment, Wang Gui came in from the gatehouse and saw Zhu Gaoxu standing on the eaves, he accelerated his pace.

"Prince..." Wang Gui whispered, "I go to the north gate of Prince Yan's Mansion every day to stare at it. I have not found anything for so many days. Otherwise, how many more people will be found?"

"No!" Zhu Gaoxu refused without hesitation, "This matter is confidential, and it is better to be useless than to make a rash move."

"I understand." Wang Gui said.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "You try another place and go to Chi Yueguan to have a look. There is no need to worry about this. I may go on a war in the next few days. You can stay in Peiping and find out slowly."

Wang Gui clasped his fists and said, "I obey the order."

After a while, Cao Fu also walked into the gatehouse and said, "Prince, someone has come to the Yan Prince's Mansion. I'll ask the Prince to go to the front hall of the Yan Prince's Mansion to discuss matters immediately."

Zhu Gaoxu immediately said: "I urged Zhang Junjiang to repair the remaining damaged areas too well. I need to repair them for a while first, and then repair them carefully. This time I will wear that armor, which is strong enough!"

"Yes, Prince."

Zhu Gaoxu called the servants and maids to change into martial arts uniforms, and first wore only a set of chain mail. When he was ready, he went to discuss matters.

He took his followers and rode all the way to the Yan Prince's Mansion.

When he was about to arrive at the front hall, Zhu Gaoxu met Zheng He and exchanged greetings. At this time, Zhu Gaoxu thought that Xu Kong's family had also been killed before, so he asked casually, "Is the Jinyiwei who sent the letter dead?"

Zheng He was silent for a moment and said quietly: "I'm dying, my legs and feet are chewed by hungry dogs. I'm bony and sprinkled with salt. I haven't howled this morning."

Zhu Gaoxu felt his scalp numb and his legs seemed to feel very uncomfortable.

Zhu Gaoxu knew about the cruelty of the King of Yan in his previous life, such as massacre of the ten clans, putting oil pans, and letting soldiers take turns to humiliate other people's families, and other things. It seems that there are also stories of killing thousands of palace maids with hands... However, where did an Jinyiwei who delivered a letter arouse the furious King of Yan?

"What did the secret letter be written?" Zhu Gaoxu raised his courage and couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Zheng He shook his head. Seeing two more military generals coming here behind him, Zhu Gaoxu also shut up.

When we arrived at the front hall, more than a dozen civil and military officials came one after another, and everyone stood in order. Soon, the King of Yan, wearing military uniforms, also came in and sat down on the throne above, and everyone came forward to salute.

King Yan looked at Zhu Gaoxu first and said, "This time I will lead my army to attack Sheng Yong, so Gao Xu won't have to go."

Gao Xu was stunned and was very surprised. Before he left the door, he urged the craftsmen to repair the armor quickly, and never thought about the problem of not having to go to war.

But Zhu Gaoxu did not plan to challenge the authority of King Yan at any time... He always asked the evil dog to bite off other people's lower body, which was so fucking terrible! Zhu Gaoxu felt that he should be glad that he was the eldest son of King Yan.

He didn't think much about it, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Son Master!"

At this time, the big mouth Zhu Neng shouted: "Prince, why don't you let King Gaoyang go? King Gaoyang is so fierce! The official army is afraid of him, so the momentum is weaker when we see King Gaoyang. Our soldiers have a high morale when we see King Gaoyang."

Although Zhu Neng was a big-mouthed person, he was also considered a confidant general of the King of Yan, so it should be fine to say a few words.

Then he said with a mouthful of hair, Zhang Yu, also said: "Your Majesty should call King Gaoyang. Look at his armor and armor, he probably has nothing to do in Peking."

The King of Yan said in a calm tone: "No need, let Gao Xu rest in Peking for a while and recruit more soldiers. After the war in the past two years, the soldiers have been killed and killed, and fewer and fewer soldiers have been killed or killed."

He paused and said, "The official army was defeated twice in a row, and each time it lost its troops, and the elite troops were almost gone! I received the news that Sheng Yong had no decent cavalry. This battle was not as difficult as before. In comparison, it was more important for us to replenish the troops. Gao Xu trained troops many times, so it would be best to do this."

Zhu Neng and Zhang Yu were also very tactful, and after hearing this, he also said, "The prince is wise!"

The King of Yan has always been kind and powerful, which is very awe-inspiring. It is difficult for his subordinates to have the kind of person who has to follow his own advice.

At this time, Yao Guangxiao took two steps forward and looked back and said, "In this battle, the commander of the official army was Sheng Yong. He was appointed by the court as General Pingyan, and Chen Hui, Ping'an, Ma Pu, Xu Zhen and other generals as deputy. Tie Xuan has been promoted to the Minister of War, and is in charge of military affairs in the front, mainly responsible for supervising the transportation of grain and grass."

After hearing this, everyone nodded and agreed. This was also a military newspaper before leaving.

Yao Guangxiao also said: "Although Sheng Yong is the head commander, he does not have the authority of Li Jinglong before. Another general Xu Kai was stationed in Cangzhou, and the army's baggage was also in Cangzhou, or it may not be controlled by Sheng Yong. Sheng Yong's army was in Dezhou and formed a junction with Xu Kai."

At this time, the King of Yan said, "Xu Kai is my defeated general. This time we will attack Cangzhou first. If Xu Kai is dealt with as soon as possible, then attack Dezhou, Sheng Yong will not be able to rely on reinforcements! Do you have any objections?"

The generals bowed and said, "The prince is a good idea, and the last general will obey the order!"

Then everyone discussed enthusiastically, and had their own opinions on the comments on the generals of the government army this time, such as the situation, and these had nothing to do with Zhu Gaoxu, so he would not go this time.

After arriving until the end of the show, Zhu Gaoxu didn't say anything and went out with the generals.

...Zhu Gaoxu returned to the mansion and immediately took off his mail, and suddenly felt like he had nothing to do.

All kinds of military training are empty talk. The only places where the Yan Prince’s Mansion can be dispatched are only a few other prefectures such as Beiping. What are the sources of troops now? Could it be that the farmers can be used as the army by gathering them together, sending some weapons, and practicing them?

He thought about how many days to rest at home before talking, but soon gave up the idea. If he treated it negatively, would the King of Yan feel that he was dissatisfied?
