The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1258 The imperial decree to the border

"What? You said that Daxing's army attacked the border at night?" Wang Baihu grabbed the soldier by the collar, his face full of disbelief.

"Yes! According to the news just now, reinforcements are heading to Yuhe Pass, and even Yumen Pass has sent troops to support it!"

Wang Baihu panicked, he looked at Gu Chengyu who was also surprised on his face, and a year suddenly popped up in his heart, this time he finally saw a different look on Master Gu's face.

"What's the truth? Do you know?" Gu Chengyu was a little flustered when he thought of Yin Kun who was still in Yuheguan.

"I didn't explain it in detail, I only heard this!"

"General Yuan is injured. There is no one in the Wujun Mansion. You are guarding here. The matter is urgent. I will discuss with General Yuan and leave the token to you for the time being."

After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he told Mingmo: "Pack up your things now, let's go to the border!"

"My lord, I have to go to Yuheguan for a lowly position!" Wang Baihu hurriedly stepped forward to stop Gu Chengyu from leaving, he couldn't stay here to guard.

"Don't worry, follow the plan drawn up by the officer before, and the enemy will not attack again in the near future." Gu Chengyu pushed Wang Baihu away and was about to go down the tower.

"My lord, I have to go to the border for a humble job, let's go together!" Wang Baihu looked anxiously at Gu Chengyu, his eyes full of pleading.

"Master Gu, Lord Wang's father is General Wang Changhe, the deputy general guarding Yuhe Pass." The soldier stepped forward and explained softly.

Gu Chengyu turned to look at Wang Baihu's reddish eyes, and said after a long silence, "Since you are an official of the imperial court, you understand that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to balance."

Wang Baihu's tears flowed down instantly, "Father was injured when he faced the enemy last time. Although he has recovered now, he still has a hidden illness. If even General Huaiyuan is attacked at night, then father."

Wang Baihu couldn't help crying when he said this, he is only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy after all!All his martial arts are taught by his father. To him, his father is a mountain and the pillar of the family. His father cannot fail.

"Wang Baihu, General Yuan has not recovered from his serious injury. He really cannot bear this burden. Now the border gate is too busy to take care of itself, and it is impossible to send reinforcements. If you and I both leave, what will the Wujun Mansion do? ?”

"I still have a follower, if he finds it, let him go to Yuhe Pass to find me!"

"Wouldn't it be better for Mr. Gu to sit in Wujun Mansion? The lowly position is just a hundred households, how can he take on this great task?" Wang Baihu still doesn't give up, how can he still have the intention to stay in Wujun Mansion?

Gu Chengyu didn't reply to Wang Baihu's words, he turned around, raised his internal strength, and flew down the tower.The black cloak floated down in the bright red flames, and when the people on the tower reacted, the slender figure had already landed on the ground.

Wang Baihu was stunned by Gu Chengyu's skill, he opened his mouth wide and watched the black figure fly away into the distance.

"I didn't expect Mr. Gu's martial arts to be so strong? It's really impressive!" The soldier just now was shocked, and the movement of flying down from the tower was so handsome.

"I have to study and take the imperial examination, and I also need to practice martial arts. I heard that Gu Da is only 16 years old. He is really amazing and talented!"

Wang Baihu glanced at the admiring soldiers, why didn't he know that there are some scholars who can chew on words among these people?
But he was still relieved after all, since Mr. Gu is so skilled in martial arts, it is the best choice for him to go to the border.But he was still worried about his father, but he had a heavy responsibility, so there was nothing he could do!

"I'll go and explain a few words to General Yuan. After the salutes and coachmen, find some soldiers to escort them to Yuhe Pass. Let's take only two clothes and go to the border pass on horseback!"

Gu Chengyu dropped his words, then turned and went to Yuan Bin's room.

To Wang Baihu, he could only say sorry.Wang Baihu has someone to protect, and he happens to have one too.He couldn't just sit and watch his brother in danger, he had to go to the border as soon as possible.

"You send this imperial decree to the border, hurry up without delay! I will send the commander, Tongzhi Baiguan, to accompany you!" The emperor said to De'an, who was kneeling on the ground.

De'an immediately replied tremblingly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this old slave will definitely bring the imperial decree to the border as soon as possible!"

Pang Chugong was standing ten steps away from the two of them. At this moment, he only felt a little embarrassed.

After all, De'an is still the head of the palace.Because De'an was the person who served the late emperor personally when he was alive, if the emperor treated him too harshly, there would inevitably be gossip.

And although he is inferior to De'an, but now he is the one who is reused by the emperor.

In fact, according to the old rules, De'an is generally only concerned about his rank, and he should have given up his heavy responsibilities long ago and was allowed to go out of the palace, or find a side hall in the palace for the elderly.

But the emperor entrusted De'an with the task of going to the border to read the imperial decree. This move is really intriguing!
"Pack up and set off immediately!" Now the situation at the border is unknown, the emperor is anxious, but he also knows that it will take a few days for the news to arrive.

"Yes! That old slave will leave first!" De'an took the imperial decree from Pang Chu, got up tremblingly, and retreated respectfully.

Looking at the black boots in front of him, De'an felt a sour feeling in his heart.

He was the one who stood in the imperial study and waited on him before. When the late emperor was still there, when the servants and maids saw him, which ones were not respectful and greeted him with smiles?
Now that things are changing and people are changing, and the glory of the past is gone, how can he feel better?In just one month, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of human feelings.Before people left, the tea was cold.

The late emperor's voice and smile appeared in his mind, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little sore.After being together for many years, there is always some affection.

A court lady came towards him, he hurriedly cleared up his mood, straightened his back, and assumed a proud posture.

"My servant has seen Mr. Chen!" The maid slightly bowed her knees as a salute.

De'an has seen this maid before, she should be the second-class girl next to a side concubine in the Prince's mansion.However, the other party's attitude of saluting was so perfunctory, which made him very dissatisfied.

De'an didn't argue with this court lady, after all, today is different from the past.He went straight down the steps, and when he was leaving, he heard the maid snorting coldly behind him, muttering, not knowing what to say.

He didn't hear it clearly, but he could guess that it must not be something pleasant to hear.Clenching the imperial decree in his hand, De'an's eyes showed firmness.Go to the border?Just what he wanted!
"Your Majesty! Do you want to rest for a while?" Seeing that the Emperor's face seemed a little pale, Pang Chu couldn't help asking worriedly.

Today, because of the national mourning, the emperor didn't have much rest at all.What's more, he has to deal with the memorials accumulated by the previous court. It has been three consecutive days and he only sleeps for two or three hours a day. How can this be unbearable?
The emperor suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and an itchy throat.He coughed violently, but he couldn't control it as soon as he coughed out, and coughed several times in a row, as if something was going to climb up his throat.
