Hairpin Phoenix - Chapter 686

   Chapter 686 Brothers

   If the words were run on this, the Marquis of Puyang could not be unhappy.

   It is polite to say borrowing soldiers. Emperor Yongjia was about to be buried, and Prince Li Jing was only one step away from the Dragon Chair. The words spoken are not far from the imperial decree.

   If he resists, what kind of “loyal minister” is he?

  The Marquis of Puyang was not reconciled, he thought about it and said, “Your Highness has an order, so I am willing to borrow troops. Why don’t I personally lead 20,000 soldiers and go to Yanchu with King Xingyang to quell the chaos.”

  Hao Lai can also be divided into half of the battle.

  Li Jing said: “It is also a last resort to send King Xingyang to leave the capital. With so many changes in the capital, there must be someone sitting in the military camp, and people’s hearts can be settled. This person is none other than the loyal and lofty Marquis of Puyang.”

   Such a tall hat was brought over, and Marquis Puyang could only hold his nose and admit that he was unlucky, with a look of gratitude and gratitude on his face: “His Royal Highness trusts me so much, I will definitely repay His Highness.”

   The matter of “borrowing soldiers” was thus settled.

   Li Jing sent a letter to the Ministry of War, and sent a letter to the Zhao family army.

  The Marquis of Puyang was in the palace and could not return to the barracks to arrange arrangements, so he sent a private soldier back to the barracks to deliver the letter. No matter what, the clan brother must go with him. He can’t get any benefits, and it’s good that the credit goes to the Zhao family.

   Marquis of Puyang’s little action, Li Jing and Lu Lin knew what they knew, but did not stop them.

  The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry. Zhao Jiajun has already let Zhao Jiajun cut his flesh and let his blood, so don’t force it too hard.

   After receiving the prince’s will, the noble book of the household department was so anxious that he immediately summoned everyone in the household department and was busy raising military funds.

   Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of War immediately picked up a pen and doubled the number of food, grass, weapons, weapons and horses. The officials of the Ministry of Household and Ministry of War, who were originally kneeling, went to their respective official offices to work.

   There were suddenly a lot fewer people kneeling.

  The remnants of Yanchu are in chaos, which is a major event related to the stability of the country. Come to think of it, even if Emperor Yongjia in the coffin knew it, he would agree to send troops first to quell the chaos.

   Three shifts, the tired Li Jing got up and quietly exited the mourning hall.

   A figure also came out: “Second brother, please wait a moment, I have something to tell you.”

   is the fourth prince.

  Li Jing paused, turned his head and looked over: “What’s the matter with you?”

  Li Jing was very hard working. In comparison, the Fourth Prince is much more leisurely. Kneeling in the mourning hall every day. He doesn’t need to worry about government and military affairs.

   In terms of complexion, the fourth prince is stronger than Li Jing, but it is not much better. A handsome face with a miserable white face complements the white filial piety on his body: “Second brother, I also want to go to Yanchu with King Xingyang to quell the chaos.”

   Li Jing’s brows moved, staring at the fourth prince, neither agreeing nor shaking his head.

The fourth prince approached two steps, the two brothers were close at hand and looked at each other, their voices so low that only each other could hear: “The sixth brother is still young, the fifth brother died, and the eldest brother committed a monstrous mistake and was killed. My brother is trapped in the Xingyang military camp. My second brother is going to sit in the palace, and now the only one who can help is me.”

   “If the second brother trusts me, let me go with you! The army goes on an expedition, and there is a prince to supervise the army, and there can be less right and wrong in the army.”

The fourth prince paused and lowered his voice again: “If the second brother can’t believe me, then treat me as I didn’t say these words. When the father is buried, I will be the first to file a memorial and ask the second brother to succeed him as the new emperor. .”

   A hand fell on the shoulder of the fourth prince.

   “Fourth brother,” Li Jing’s mood was extremely complicated, and thousands of words poured into his mouth. In the end, they only converged into a short sentence: “How can I not trust you.”

The fourth prince’s nose was sore, his eyes were red, and his voice was choked: “If you don’t believe me, I don’t blame you. The things that the third brother and the fifth brother did, and the eldest…Second brother, our brothers grew up together. Although they compete with each other, they are siblings. How did it become like this?”

   Li Jing’s heart was full of obscurity, and his voice was a little hoarse: “I didn’t expect it to be like this.”

  Li Hao and Li Chang, two brothers, he has been on guard in every possible way.

   He never thought that it would be Li Yi who really caused the disaster in the end.

   Li Yi died early in his previous life. In this life, Li Yi was lucky not to die, only his right leg was crippled. He also thought that as long as Li Yi was honest and safe, he wouldn’t even be able to tolerate a lame brother.

   Who would have thought that Li Yi’s heart was dark and twisted, and he could kill his own father. General Liang also couldn’t escape the calamity. The capital was in turmoil, and there were countless casualties, all of which had to be counted on Li Yi’s head.

   The fourth prince blushed and cried in a low voice.

  Li Jing turned his head aside. Two tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

   After a while, the fourth prince wiped his tears with his sleeves, and said in a hoarse voice, “Second brother trusts me, I will definitely serve as a messenger with all my heart, and I will never lose my second brother’s trust.”

  Li Jing turned his head back and his expression regained his composure. Only his red eyes revealed his true emotions: “The wounds on your body have not healed, can you resist traveling thousands of miles?”

  The fourth prince said: “My little injury is nothing. The big deal is to ride a carriage.”

   The Fourth Prince’s supervisor is indeed the most suitable.

   The Xingyang Army and the Zhao Family Army sent troops together, and Lu Lin, the King of Xingyang, was the main general, so he could naturally suppress the Zhao Family Army. With the four princes accompanying, the generals of the Zhao family, big and small, can also be more peaceful.

   “Thank you for your hard work.” Li Jing whispered.

The fourth prince pretended to be brisk and said, “I’ll stay in the capital, but I won’t be able to use it. If I can leave the capital and go to Yanchu, I can make a contribution to pacifying the chaos. Maybe I can get some credit back. The second brother can come back. Treat me well!”

   “You don’t have to reward me with gold, silver and jewelry. When the time comes, you will reward me with a small or small feudal land. Don’t be too remote. I will lead my wife and children, and my mother and concubine, and go to the feudal land together.”

  Li Jing frowned: “You said just now that the only person who can help me now is you. You have to stay in the capital for five or eight years, and then mention the matter of leaving the capital.”

The fourth prince looked at Li Jing and said in a low voice, “That night, my eldest brother and I drank together. I told him that I would enter the palace the next morning and beg the emperor to grant me lands. I want to leave the capital sooner rather than later. .”

   “I never thought about it, the eldest brother went crazy that night and caused a catastrophe!”

   “Second brother, I’m not trying to coax you, I’m just going to join the vassal if I really want to.”

   “I was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. Over the years, I have left the capital only a handful of times. I want to go to my fief earlier to take care of the business and live a quiet and comfortable life.”

   “Second brother, if you feel sorry for my younger brother, please fulfill me!”

   Looking at the sincere eyes of the fourth prince, Li Jing couldn’t tell what he was feeling.

  Why did the fourth prince want to leave the capital?

  Because there are people living in the capital who are unhappy and unhappy, they show that they do not have the heart of imperial power. It is because he wants to leave this right and wrong place and does not want to be involved in the fight again.

   After a long time, Li Jingcai opened his mouth: “Okay, I promise you.”
