Hairpin Phoenix - Chapter 709
Chapter 709
The Xingyang Army acted quickly and efficiently, and in just seven days, it was properly placed.
The rest of the army were young and strong, no more or no less, exactly fifty thousand.
The Marquis of Puyang kept staring at the movements in the Xingyang army. After learning that Lu Lin had left more than 1,000 veterans and chose 300 elites for the empress, he couldn’t help but twitched the corners of his mouth.
This Lu Lin has all his face, and he also takes care of Weng and his son-in-law. It’s really hateful to act so thoughtfully, even if you want to pick on the thorns.
But being a human being, the most important thing is mentality. Once the battle is over, it is the Xingyang army who will charge the most with the most casualties. He who relies on nepotism and figuring out the sacred heart to become the Marquis of Puyang, why should he compete with Lu Lin?
That’s all, being the number two person in the army is enough.
The Marquis of Puyang comforted himself and relieved himself, and he was soon relieved. At the great court meeting, a memorial was given, which greatly promoted the loyalty and sincerity of Xingyang King Gao Fengliangjie.
The numbness of his words made all the ministers get goosebumps on the ground.
was the emperor on the dragon chair. He listened very well and said with a smile: “The words of the Marquis of Puyang are very much in my mind.”
The ministers resisted the urge to rub their arms, and then praised!
Xingyang King Lu Lin, as the head of the generals, stands at the front of the line of generals. . He was also the closest to the Son of Heaven. As soon as he looked up, he could see Li Jingyi’s shining black eyes and the raised corners of his mouth.
It can be seen that the emperor is really happy today.
Lu Lin also felt relieved.
It is a great blessing for a courtier to meet a wise monarch.
As a father-in-law, having such a son-in-law is also something to be happy about.
After had dispersed, Li Jing returned to the Jiaofang Hall with a face full of spring breeze.
At this time, the children have not left school. The couple were able to be alone for a while. Li Jing chuckled in a low voice: “Father-in-law did things neatly, without procrastinating at all. In just a few days, the veterans were properly placed. Today, the Marquis of Puyang made a memorial and slapped his father-in-law hard.”
Lu Mingyu laughed dumbly: “This Marquis of Puyang, the wind is turning really fast.”
With the eyes of the Marquis of Puyang and the clear heart, he can see the wind and turn the rudder, and he will be able to stand stably and not fall.
Li Jing smiled casually: “As long as he is safe and honest, I am also happy to see him hold Zhao Jiajun well.”
is the cousin who has been called since childhood. As long as the Marquis of Puyang did not have the heart to raise troops to rebel, he would also like to be the second general in the army.
The husband and wife were joking for a while, and Lu Mingyu said suddenly, “By the way, my father specially selected the elite among the 300 veterans and sent them to my farm. Lu Yi was very happy to get these 300 veterans.”
Li Jing said with a smile: “A veteran can bring more than a dozen new recruits. Your personal soldiers have always been 5,000 people. With these veterans, you can recruit more new recruits and train them for three years and two years, and you will be an elite soldier. The number of people is too large to be eye-catching, and those civil officials in the court will also be murmuring, so in the future, your personal soldiers will be controlled by about ten thousand people!”
Lu Mingyu smiled and glanced at Li Jing.
With this opening, the strength of her troops doubled.
Moreover, her personal soldiers are all elite, good at formations, and extremely powerful. These ten thousand people can serve as thirty or forty thousand soldiers in the future. Almost caught up with the Royal Forest Army.
With such a huge force in hand, can Li Jing really rest assured?
Li Jing looked back with a candid face: “Xiaoyu, if I don’t want to, I won’t take the initiative to open this mouth. You send the order to Lu Yi, let him let go and recruit his own soldiers!”
Nothing can give you is more secure than having soldiers in your hands.
In that case, I will give you what you want most.
Lu Mingyu looked at Li Jing, his nose was sore.
Li Jing stretched out his hand, put Lu Mingyu in his arms, and whispered, “Don’t just focus on being moved. In fact, I also have my own selfishness in doing this.”
“You have such a personal soldier in your hand, which is also a deterrent to the Imperial Forest Army and the Zhao family’s army. In the future, when there is an emergency, it may be of great use. The soldiers in your hands are no different from mine.”
The difference is huge.
Li Jing said this to protect her from the wind and rain, and she can use such reasons to block the mouths of courtiers in the future.
Lu Mingyu sniffed and whispered, “Li Jing, you are so good to me, you will spoil me.”
Li Jing laughed softly: “I’m happy, no one cares.”
Lu Mingyu was amused again, raised his head, and kissed Li Jing forcefully: “Okay. You dare to give it, I have nothing to dare to accept. Later, I will send orders to Lu Yi to let him expand his personal troops to 10,000 people. Anyone who comes to me in the future and wants to speak loudly will have to weigh one or two.”
Li Jing responded bluntly: “Including me.”
Lu Mingyu couldn’t help laughing and raised the corner of his mouth.
Li Jing bowed his head and placed a light kiss on the corner of her mouth.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and soon a knock sounded: “Father, Queen Mother!”
This loud boy’s voice was none other than Li Cong. Li Jue and Li Xuan also came over from school. The two of them took a few steps and came over.
Li Jing smiled and took Lu Mingyu’s hand to open the door. A family of five went for lunch together.
The husband and wife are very tacit, and keep silent in front of the children.
…
This matter has not spread, and neither Li Jing nor Lu Mingyu have any intention of making a statement.
After all, it is unprecedented for the queen to have ten thousand elite soldiers in her hands. Let the courtiers know that it is necessary to have trouble with words, and it will also push Lu Mingyu to the forefront. It is better to hide it temporarily, Lu Yi quietly trains his troops.
After waiting for three years and two years, all the soldiers have been trained, and it is useless for anyone to talk too much.
After receiving the secret order, Lu Yi was overjoyed and immediately began to recruit troops.
This matter is hidden from others, and it will not be hidden from Lulin.
Lu Lin received Lu Mingyu’s letter in the barracks. After reading it, his brows stretched, and his smile was extremely relieved.
Lu Fei became curious and asked in a low voice, “What did the Queen Mother write in the letter, why is the foster father so happy?”
Lu Lin gave the letter to Lu Fei: “You can see if you look at it.”
Lu Fei swept his eyes, and when he saw half of it, his eyes widened in shock and looked at Lu Lin. Lu Lin laughed and motioned Lu Fei to calm down with his eyes.
Lu Fei closed his wide-open mouth unconsciously and quickly read the letter. Then he sighed and said, “The emperor treats the niece like this without ignoring the true feelings of the niece and everything that the righteous father has done for the court.”
Lu Lin also smiled and sighed: “This incident also exceeded my expectations. The emperor is more ambitious than the previous emperor.”
“How can this be compared.” Lu Fei immediately picked up what he said: “The late emperor was great at leading troops to fight, but he was very indifferent to his wife and children. The emperor was ten times stronger than the previous emperor in this regard.”
Emperor Yongjia was really good to Concubine Meng’s mother and son, but not a single star to his wife and son.
deserved to end up there.
Lu Fei secretly slandered in his heart, but he finally didn’t say it.
Lu Lin stared at the direction of the palace with ease.
In a few days, it will be the canonization ceremony of the crown prince.
