080(2/3)

Chen Jin smiled proudly and said, "Take the thing over here is the right thing, but you are doing very well, brother."

Chu Xiuming listened to the two of them praising each other and served two bowls of soup to their hands. Chen Jin and Chu Xiuyuan stopped and started eating. After Chen Xi took the initiative to find Chu Xiuming, he threw it into the military camp by him. Everything was trained with the soldiers and there was no special care at all, so he was not in the general's mansion during this period.

After using up the meal, Chu Xiuyuan asked the kitchen to make some braised meat and steamed buns and left. He also wanted to go to the military camp for a walk, at least to visit Chen Xi.

At this time, Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin went to the small study room. After he made a decision, he spent a while to draw a map. The two of them sat together. Chu Xiuming carefully told Chen Jin about the situation of the Tianqi Dynasty, and asked Chen Jin to recognize the place next to it. In addition, there were situations around Tianqi.

Chen Jin was stunned when he heard this. Chu Xiuming didn't always talk about terrain and other situations, but also often talked about specialties and folk customs, so that Chen Jin could specifically connect the location and the situation.

It took three days to let Chen Jin remember everything clearly. When discussing the matter every morning, Chen Jin couldn't understand it from the beginning to the later one.

In the conference hall that day, Chu Xiuming's face was gloomy but he didn't say anything. He just handed the letter in his hand to Chen Jin first. Chen Jin has not brought anything to him since the first day. He took it apart and looked at it. If Chu Xiuming's face was gloomy, then Chen Jin was stunned, with disbelief and frightened face.

After Chen Jin finished reading it, he gave it to Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming asked someone to give it to Chu Xiuyuan. Chu Xiuyuan's face changed when he saw the whole face. He looked at Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming nodded. Chu Xiuyuan handed the letter to General Manager Wang and asked them to circulate it next to each other. He suddenly poured a few cups of tea, which suppressed the indignation in his heart.

There are not many words on this letter. In Shu, the second prince was used as the subject, and he killed 8,000 soldiers, and a certain prince was alone.

Killing...

Because of the second prince's capture, tens of thousands of people have died. Now, the eight thousand people have added... Not to mention these, I don't know much food, grass and supplies to those anti-civilians. This really makes the anti-civilians use the food, grass and weapons they sent to kill their soldiers.

"I wonder if the court has any reaction?" General Manager Wang asked with a frown.

This time, not only ordinary soldiers died, but also an earl prince. Such things cannot be hidden, it depends on how Emperor Cheng wants to appease him.

Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, Manager Zhao sneered, "What else can he do? At most, he will recall all the sons of the princes and powerful people and order people to rescue the second prince."

"The matter of the King of England has been confirmed." Chu Xiuming did not say this again and said, "I will go out with Xiuyuan next month."

Chu Xiuyuan had known about this for a long time, so he was not surprised. Everyone looked at Chu Xiuming, "No matter what else, after all, ensure the stability of the border and re-arrange the defense."

Chu Xiuming was not even planning to send the defense to Emperor Cheng this time.

Everyone also knew that this was a serious matter. It was less than thirty years since the tragedy, and they still remember it freshly.

"Leave all the affairs of the border town to my wife." Chu Xiuming looked at everyone and said, "You help."

Many people frowned. It was not that they did not trust Chen Jin, but that the border town was particularly important. Chen Jin had never been exposed to such things at all. They didn't know how capable Chen Jin was. Although when Chu Xiuming brought Chen Jin to the meeting hall for the first time, everyone had speculations, but they didn't expect that so soon. If Chu Xiuming could take Chen Jin for a year and a half and let Chen Jin take over slowly, they wouldn't have hesitated so much.

Chu Xiuming didn't say anything else. Manager Zhao was the first to stand up and said, "Yes, my subordinates will do their best to assist his wife."

Manager Wang then responded, and Chu Xiuyuan said, "Sister-in-law, I'll bother you behind you."

Seeing this, the rest of the people were no longer silent and responded.

Chen Jin stood up and said to everyone, "I will rely on you then."

As soon as these words were said, many people felt much more comfortable. Over the years, many things in the border town have been improved. Although they do not have clear official positions like the court, they also have their own divisions. Everyone has their own understanding of wherever they care. So when Chu Xiuming dared to leave for more than a year, this time he dared to take Chu Xiuyuan and leave here to Chen Jin. As long as Chen Jin did not interfere randomly, the border town would not be in chaos.

The next day, everyone found that Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin had changed their positions. When discussing the matter, the person in charge became Chen Jin. Chu Xiuming sat aside and didn't say much, because Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan were going to lead their troops away. These days, they were discussing food and grass. Chen Jin didn't say much, just watched everyone discuss and arrange in an orderly manner.

Chu Xiuming gently held the hand under the table of Chen Jin and felt that Chen Jin's hand was wet. It was obvious that she was still nervous, but she looked like she listened carefully to others.

Time passed day by day. Even if the two of them cherished this period of time together, it was the day when Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan left. Chen Jin took the thing from Chu Xiuming's arms, watched the servant change into a suit of armor for Chu Xiuming, and then personally sent Chu Xiuming out of the city gate.

"I gave Dongdong a name." Chu Xiuming looked at Chen Jin and Dongdong and suddenly spoke.

Chen Jin didn't ask anything when he heard this, but just said, "You promised me."

"Yeah." Chu Xiuming reached out and held Dongdong's little hand and said, "I will come back. I will tell you Dongdong's name when the time comes."

"Okay." Chen Jin pursed her lower lips and smiled, but her eyes turned red, "I'll wait for you to come back."

Chu Xiuming nodded, looked at Chen Jin and Dongdong again and turned over the horse. Chu Xiuyuan said, "Sister-in-law, we're leaving."

"Okay." Chen Jin smiled, "You must return safely, too."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law." Chu Xiuyuan smiled.

Chu Xiu clearly waved his hand and rode his horse directly towards the direction of the military camp. Chu Xiuyuan also chased after him.

Chen Jin slowly let out a breath, looked down at his son who didn't understand anything, and said, "Madam, let's go back."

"Yes." Madam Zhao responded respectfully and said, "Madam, don't worry, the general and the major general will definitely return safely."

Chen Jin heard this and said, "Yes, I just...is not used to it."

In fact, after Chu Xiuming left, Chen Jin's daily life did not change much. He just had no one around him. He had to go to the conference hall every morning and sat in Chu Xiuming's seat at that time, listening to the people below talking about various news and solutions, and then nodding and using seals.

Until this day, news suddenly came from the capital, Emperor Cheng issued an order to ask Chu Xiuming to send troops to Shu to save the second prince. At this time, the envoy who announced the decree had already left the capital.

Manager Zhao frowned and watched everyone discuss how to deal with it. He thought of the things Chen Jin did in the capital and said, "What do you think about this matter?"

In fact, because Chen Jin didn't speak easily during this period, he spoke more about asking everyone's meaning, so many people ignored the fact that the person who was in charge of the border town was Chen Jin. It was not that they did not respect Chen Jin, but that they did not recognize Chen Jin's ability. At this time, when they heard Manager Zhao's words, they stopped and looked at Chen Jin.

Chen Jin said for granted, "Of course I have to accept the order when I arrive."

General Manager Wang frowned and said, "Then really want to send troops to Shuzhong?"

Emperor Cheng said that the second prince was unharmed. Although he cared about his son, it was like giving those anti-civilian gold medals, which made the soldiers of the Apocalypse restrained.

"I won't send you." Chen Jin said, "Unless Emperor Cheng abandons the second prince, it will be difficult to rescue the second prince." Chen Jin was reluctant to let these soldiers from the border town die.

Manager Zhao said, "How do you reply to the envoy?"

"As long as the envoy cannot arrive, there is no need to reply." Chen Jin said.

Manager Zhao's eyes illuminated and understood Chen Jin's meaning. It was true. They could not resist Emperor Cheng clearly now. If the imperial edict was reached, Chu Xiuming was not here, so it would be difficult to explain. Even if they fooled it, should they send people or not to send people after receiving the edict? If they don't send people, they would be disrespectful to resist the edict. If they sent people, they would use the lives of the soldiers in the border city to fill the pit. How would they be willing?

Mr. Wang narrowed his eyes and said, "If this is the case, why not arrange it here..."

"Oh, you can discuss it." Chen Jin took a sip of sour plum soup and said, "I don't really understand the murder."

It seemed as if they understood it very much. Manager Zhao and Manager Wang looked at each other and were both amused and crying.

Chen Jin continued, "But I heard from my husband that there is not a group of robbers in Yucheng?"

General Manager Wang thought about the location of Yucheng. In order to restrict the border city, Emperor Cheng specially arranged a confidant in Yucheng. At that time, Fujian was not their territory, so it didn't matter. However, since Xi Yunjing secretly took control of Fujian, the location of Yucheng made them feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, that group of robbers are extremely vicious." Manager Zhao said with a smile.

Chen Jin nodded. There was nothing wrong with him today. After the matter was settled, she stopped talking again. After everything was handled, Chen Jin left first.

When Chen Jin left, someone asked, "Manager Zhao, why don't I know what robbers are in Yucheng?"

"Madam said there is certainly, there is certainly." Manager Zhao laughed and said, "Even if there is not, they can still arrange for them to have it. However, these robbers are really brave. They even dare to rob His Majesty's imperial edict and even the envoy dares to kill..." After saying that, he sighed.

After Chen Jin went back, he went to see Dongdong. Dongdong had turned over now, but he didn't like to move. Unless Chen Jin came to tease him, he would give him a face. After Chen Jin returned, he fed Dongdong first, then hugged him and gently patted him on the back, and then put him on the bed with a smile.

Madam Zhao then smiled, "I'm afraid that the wife of today will make them all look at each other with admiration."

Chen Jin gently bit Dongdong's little hand and said, "They just like to think too complicatedly."

Madam Zhao said, "Who said no?" During this period, these people's neglect of Chen Jin made Madam Zhao feel particularly uncomfortable, but when Chen Jin was not arrogant or impatient, he felt even more proud.

"I don't know where my husband is now." Chen Jin's belly bulged.

Dongdong screamed, then kicked his little feet.

Chen Jin quickly carried his son into his arms, "Actually, I think it's a little strange."

Madam Zhao looked at Chen Jin and asked, "Does Madam think something is wrong?"

"Emperor Cheng asked someone to send an order from the capital to the border city. It will take more than ten days to go on the road. If the border city is sent to another army, it will take at least five days to prepare, and it will take dozens of days to get to the border city from the middle of Shu." Chen Jin frowned and said, "Does Emperor Cheng really want to save the second prince?"

When Madam Zhao heard Chen Jin say this, she also felt strange in her heart that the second prince is the legitimate son of Emperor Cheng...

Chen Jin was actually a little confused, so she didn't mention this point just now because she felt that it was impossible to explain. Did Emperor Cheng care about the second prince? No, he paid a lot for the second prince. "Does he think the soldiers in the border town are more brave and good at fighting?"

"Emperor Cheng won't feel this way." Chen Jin said with certainty. In Emperor Cheng's eyes, the best soldier should be his personal soldiers. "And Emperor Cheng knows that the matter in Shu is driven by the King of the King. If his husband really sent the generals, do you think the border generals would be restrained in order to avoid the second prince? Or for the sake of the second prince, thousands of soldiers were killed?"

"Absolutely not." Madam Zhao said with certainty.

Chen Jin nodded, "So I think it's very strange."

Madam Zhao also frowned and said, "I'm going to talk to Manager Zhao."

Chen Jin said, "Just like to remind me. I think Shuzhong must be a conspiracy! So we just don't get involved."

Madam Zhao was relieved when she heard this and smiled, "It's still the wife who is smart."

No matter how many conspiracies and tricks Emperor Ren Cheng had, why did he arrange these things? They just couldn't get over it, and who could do anything to them?

Chen Jin nodded. After Madam Zhao ordered Anping and An Ning to serve Chen Jin well, she went to find Manager Zhao and told them about these things. Madam Zhao frowned when she heard this. After sending Madam Zhao out, she immediately went to find Manager Wang and the others. After discussing it, the few people finally decided to stop moving as Chen Jin said.

In the Ruiwang Mansion, Chen Qi returned to the Yongle Marquis Mansion after the confinement period. The Yongle Marquis Prince has returned now. After staying at home for a day, he brought Chen Qi and his daughter here. King Ruiwang looked at his son-in-law who had lost a lot of weight and darkness and said, "It's good to come back, don't take this risk in the future."

Prince Yongle Hou said, "What my father-in-law said." For the first time, he knew that death was so easy.

"How did the second prince be captured?" Princess Rui asked softly, "How could there be so many people around him suddenly..."

Speaking of this, Prince Yongle Hou's expression was a little embarrassed. The memorials sent in the court were all decorated. It was really hard to say that the second prince was captured. They did not dare to explain in the letter, "After arriving at Shuzhong, the officials there gave away many beauties in order to save their official positions and reduce their responsibilities."

Chen Qi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Prince Yongle Hou. Prince Yongle Hou coughed awkwardly, "A few of them were naturally sent to the princes. The second prince got a pair of sisters... I don't know why the sisters touched the second prince, so I took them with them and many more soldiers, and went to pursue those anti-civilians privately..."

Then he fell into someone else's trap, and eventually led to a crushing defeat on Apocalypse.

Prince Yongle Hou said, "I heard what my third brother-in-law said. Sure enough, besides me, there were some other aristocratic families who were unwilling to emerge on the way. They hid back and didn't speak when they encountered problems. Gradually, we got together, but in addition to us, there were many people gathered by the princes." The dead prince was such a person.

"Have you seen the second prince after he was captured?" Princess Rui suddenly asked.

Prince Yongle Hou shook his head and said, "That's not the case. This matter was handed over to the other two princes. After all, it was involved in the second prince, so we didn't dare to get forward."

King Rui agreed with his face, "That's right. You should not go out during this period. It's better to stay in the mansion."
