Chapter 301
Tone
Although the war at the border attracted a lot of attention, it had little impact on the lives of ordinary people in the capital.
I just didn't expect that the report of the Eight Hundred Miles Battle came that day, and the King of Jiujiang was defeated.
Even if they were defeated, what caused the most uproar in the court was that the King of Jiujiang was captured alive.
"waste!"
The people who scolded him were not only King Jin, but also King Qing, and even King Qing was even more angry. After all, he recommended the King of Jiujiang.
When Jiang Changning heard the news, he didn't care too much about the life and death of the King of Jiujiang. He only sympathized with the soldiers who had been tricked by the King of Jiujiang.
I am still worried about one thing, "Are you going to lead troops to rescue?"
King Jin said calmly: "If you don't go, whoever made the mess will clean up the mess."
He knew clearly that King Qing would never let him lead the army until the end was reached.
King Qing wanted to trap him in the capital and keep an eye on him, so he followed the trend and stayed in the capital.
Knowing that King Jin would not leave Beijing for the time being, Jiang Changning felt relieved.
The King of Jiujiang was arrested, and his life or death was unknown. The Princess of Jiujiang led her children into the palace crying, and faced the Queen Mother, who threatened her with death.
She didn't know who gave her the idea. She handed over the deeds to the land and the land deeds of the prince's palace. She didn't say anything else, just one sentence, "I just want to save my prince."
Even if the Princess of Jiujiang did not cause this incident, the Queen Mother would still order someone to rescue the Prince of Jiujiang.
After all, for so many years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, and when it was fighting for the world, no one with such a high rank and such a distinguished status was captured by the enemy.
"Don't worry, Princess, our soldiers will definitely rescue the King of Jiujiang." The Queen Mother promised seriously.
The Queen Mother also saved a sentence, even if the King of Jiujiang died, the body would be snatched back.
If the King of Jiujiang is left in the hands of the enemy, Da Qin cannot afford to lose face.
The Queen Mother summoned three regents, two ministers from the Ministry of War, and several generals to discuss sending troops to rescue the King of Jiujiang.
What King Qing was talking about was his consistent policy towards foreigners, "A two-pronged approach, first sending troops to deter, and then sending peace talks."
"If we don't fight a victorious battle, I'm afraid even sending troops will not be able to deter us, let alone peace talks." Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War said bluntly.
The troops must be sent again, but as for the people who will lead them.
"I feel that Prince Jin is the most suitable one. Prince Jin defeated the Di people back then. Prince Jin will definitely frighten the Di people when he leads his troops." said the right minister of the Ministry of War.
The Queen Mother moved, but King Qing did not agree and tried his best to oppose it, but King Jin remained unconvinced.
The left minister of the Ministry of War took the opportunity to recommend another general, "General Fan uses his troops like a god. He will definitely defeat the Di army and save the prince of Jiujiang."
General Fan was considered a neutral faction in the court. King Qing and King Yu looked at each other and agreed that General Fan would lead the troops to attack the Di army.
But what they didn't expect was that the person General Fan met in a secret room that night was the King of Jin. "I met the prince in my humble position."
"No need to be too polite." King Jin helped him.
"Your Majesty, I will leave for the border tomorrow. What are your orders?"
"You have led the army for many years. I don't need to say much about how to fight. I have only one policy. I can only win, not lose. No one can stop the Qin cavalry from attacking."
General Fan immediately understood that the King of Jin had no clear intention. If the Di people used the King of Jiujiang as a threat, there was no need to worry and there was no need to retreat. "I understand this."
After discussing the method of using troops, the two of them left the secret room and went back to their respective homes.
On the third day after General Fan led his troops out of Beijing, Xiao Chun brought back news: "The princess and the mother-in-law's youngest daughter-in-law gave birth to a son."
Jiang Changning said calmly: "Just tell Xiulan and reward her as usual."
"Princess, it's not that there's something wrong with the reward, but the stable woman who delivered the baby to my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is one of the stable women who delivered Song Yirou's baby."
Jiang Changning put down the small scissors for cutting nails and raised his eyes to look at her, "Did something happen when Song Yirou gave birth?"
"That Wen Po revealed her secret and said that when a small family has a child, there are not as many dirty things as a big family. The child was not born, and one of them lost two lives. How pitiful."
Jiang Changning frowned, "Are you sure she is talking about Song Yirou?"
"Mother-in-law Ji sighed a few words and asked her whose family she belonged to. Grandma Wen looked annoyed and changed the subject."
"She is quite alert." Jiang Changning said coldly.
Xiao Chun smiled, "Mother-in-law Ji is collecting news from the market. When she heard that her words were wrong, she poured her a few drinks. When she was half drunk, she started talking to her again and tricked her out."
"It was said that the child had already been born, but another stable woman forced the child back in and prevented the child from coming out. The delay lasted for a long time, causing the death of both mother and child Song Yirou."
Jiang Changning took a breath of air, "Didn't she tell the Song family about this?"
"She didn't dare to say it. The Wen Po who took action threatened her and said that if she dared to speak out, she would definitely die."
Jiang Changning was silent for a long time, and then said: "First check whether there is any enmity between Wen Po and the Song family. If not, try to find out the person who betrayed her. Be careful when checking and don't be impatient."
"Princess, don't worry, I know what to do."
The next day, Xiao Chun left the house and arranged for people to investigate Wen Po's affairs.
Although Zhao Xifang was ruthless and capable, she was not so rigorous in her actions because of her age, and her finishing was not clean.
Thanks to her not ordering to get rid of the Wen Po who did it, Jiang Changning's people found out the matter without much effort.
"Princess, under the instigation of Princess Yu, Po Wen was given a sum of money, and then Po Wen's children and grandchildren were arrested and threatened. Po Wen was ruthless to Song Yirou for the sake of her children and grandchildren, and because she was greedy for the money."
"Has Po Wen's family been settled?" Jiang Changning was afraid that Zhao Xifang would come to her senses and send someone to kill Po Wen.
"It's all set up so no one can find it easily."
"Things are being done well, and I am becoming more sophisticated." Jiang Changning praised with a smile.
After receiving the praise, Xiaochun happily left.
As for this matter, Jiang Changning turned around and told King Jin, "If General Song knew about this, he wouldn't join forces with King Yu again, right?"
"The man named Song is ambitious. The death of his niece will not affect the relationship between him and Prince Yu."
Jiang Changning pouted, "I'm so happy for nothing."
Prince Jin smiled and touched her belly, "If you work it out, you can still make them feel grudge."
"That's good, it won't be in vain for me to ask someone to investigate this matter." Jiang Changning said with a smile.
"The princess is a good wife, thank you very much." Prince Jin kissed the corner of her mouth to show his approval.
Jiang Changning didn't care about how King Jin used this matter.
A few days later, Princess Yu looked at Fang Youting, who had a bulging belly, and said to Zhao Xifang: "We are about to give birth. We should choose this stable woman. Please come into the house and take care of her, so as not to be in a hurry when she arrives."
"
"What the concubine said is, I will ask someone to invite Po Wen in right away." The reason why Zhao Xifang did not get rid of Po Wen was because she was repeating her old plan.
Seeing Zhao Xifang's expression as usual, Princess Yu couldn't bear it, "If she is lucky and gives birth to a boy, she will raise her for you. Don't worry, you are the princess, she can't get past you."
"Yes." Zhao Xifang had already made up her mind. If she adopted Fang Youting's son, she would never allow Fang Youting to be alive.
After being cured, my brain is still dizzy, my whole body has no strength, I lie in bed, groggy, and I have less waking time every day, which is even more uncomfortable than confinement.
