Chapter 414 The imperial commander’s personal expedition
It is a wonderful thing to pick Xiangyun peonies among these peonies.

Afterwards, Jia Wei carried Xiangyun back to the house, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and they went to sleep together.

On the next morning, Wang Ziteng's army was defeated, shocking the government and the public. Some surrenderists even proposed to negotiate peace with the pseudo-court in Nanjing.

Emperor Xuanwu was furious and put him in prison and interrogated him, and only then did no one dare to surrender.

There was also endless debate about the rebellion. Some people said that the general Wang Ziteng should be replaced, but who should be replaced was another new debate. Some prudent people thought it was inappropriate to change the generals in the middle of a battle...

Jia Wei did not participate in these debates. Instead, he waited until the court was dismissed to find Emperor Xuanwu and said that he had accidentally obtained a miraculous medicine from the Western Regions and wanted to present it to the palace to cure the emperor's illness.

Emperor Xuanwu had been bedridden for nearly a year and was already in great pain. He would not let go of even the slightest chance.

Moreover, he trusted Jia Wei much more than the Imperial Medical Bureau, so he was overjoyed and ordered Jia Wei to bring the medicine into the palace that afternoon.

Jia Wei had a clear view of the situation in the world. Now that Mongolia had invaded the border, the pseudo-dynasty in Nanjing had dealt a heavy blow to the anti-rebel army, and the rebel king was at the height of his arrogance. It was time to give Shenjing a shot in the arm.

Nothing can boost morale more than the recovery of a seriously ill emperor...

In the afternoon, in a quiet room in the Yangxin Palace, Jia Wei took out the elixir and asked Dai Quan to cut off a small piece for testing.

After Emperor Xuanwu took the medicine, Jia Wei used his internal strength to help him digest the medicine. Emperor Xuanwu knew that Jia Wei was a martial arts expert, so he trusted him even more.

Medicine and martial arts are inseparable. Jia Wei also knows a little about medicine. He can see that Emperor Xuanwu is seriously ill and cannot be cured with his medical skills. This pill is just an ordinary tonic.

The focus was on transmitting internal force afterwards. Jia Wei placed his hands on Emperor Xuanwu's back and used the Nine Yang Magic Skill supplemented by the Great Shift of the Universe to stimulate the acupuncture points throughout Emperor Xuanwu's body and unleash his physical potential.

Of course, all the gifts from fate have already been secretly marked with a price.

Jia Wei used the method of Qiankun Da Neng Yi to stimulate his physical potential. Although it made Emperor Xuanwu recover, his body would be overdrawn in two or three years at most...

Jia Wei was also very clear about this. Two or three years was not only the countdown of Emperor Xuanwu's life, but also the last time for his development.

Immediately, Emperor Xuanwu felt a warm current running through his body, and his pale face instantly glowed red...

A quarter of an hour later, Emperor Xuanwu felt his extremely light body and strong hands, and he was almost crazy with joy.

"I'm cured...?"

Dai Quan kowtowed immediately: "Your Majesty, may the heaven bless us!"

Emperor Xuanwu was very happy: "Mr. Jia is truly a pillar of the country and my backbone. I will reward you well..."

"I have risen from a humble official to a marquisate, all thanks to your Majesty's promotion. I shall serve you wholeheartedly."

Jia Wei also secretly used the soul-transferring technique to influence Emperor Xuanwu's mind in order to increase his trust and favor in his heart.

"Although this method is very effective, it requires a stable source of energy. Your Majesty must not visit the harem within three months, otherwise your source of energy will be lost and your illness will recur. It will then be difficult to cure. I just hope Your Majesty takes good care of your health."

Emperor Xuanwu did not dare to be careless and immediately agreed solemnly.

Jia Wei smiled secretly in his heart. When he was transferring his internal energy just now, he had already sealed all the acupuncture points around Emperor Xuanwu's kidneys. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't use any strength.

Jia Wei cured Emperor Xuanwu and asked him to do the work. Jia Wei had not yet taken over Empress Zhou, so of course he had to be on guard against the emperor.

Although Jia Wei was trying to decline the credit, Emperor Xuanwu certainly could not have failed to express his opinion.

"I know that Lord Jia is also a blessed man. He is the wife of two wives, and his wife is Lord Lin's only daughter..." Emperor Xuanwu said with a smile, "Draft an edict to confer the title of First-Rank Imperial Consort on Lady Jia Lin."

After hearing this, Jia Wei thought that he could use this to cheer Daiyu up tonight, so he was very happy and hurried to thank him.

In the main hall, the emperor and his ministers once again discussed the matter of replacing the generals who were to lead the rebellion. What do you think, Lord Jia?

Jia Wei was moved by something, but did not answer directly.

"Your Majesty, the anti-rebel army has been defeated and the morale of the army is unstable. This has only emboldened the Jinling pseudo-dynasty... In addition, the Mongolian army has surrounded Xiangyang, and the nine borders are in turmoil. The Han Dynasty is in danger of extinction!"

Emperor Xuanwu knew this, of course. He was furious and slammed the imperial desk: "Wang Ziteng has betrayed the country and should be executed!"

Jia Wei said in a deep voice: "Now the attack and defense have changed. The anti-rebel army retreated to Hefei and was surrounded by the rebels. If they suffer another defeat, the army's morale will definitely be unstable, and Wang Ziteng is not useful. I am afraid that tens of thousands of soldiers will be burned to death."

"Does Jia Qing also think that we should change the generals? Then who should lead the troops?" Emperor Xuanwu's eyes suddenly lit up. "Would Jia Qing be willing to lead the troops to suppress the rebellion and capture the rebellious king and bring him back to the capital?"

Jia Wei quickly declined: "I am only good at military strategy and can command a small army, but I don't have the talent to lead the three armies."

Emperor Xuanwu asked suspiciously, "Who did Jia Qing recommend?"

Jia Wei said solemnly, "I propose that Your Majesty personally lead the army to the south to eliminate the false dynasty in one fell swoop."

"The emperor is going to conquer it personally?"

Emperor Xuanwu was young and full of vigor, and after being bewitched by Jia Wei, it was inevitable that his mind became uncontrolled...

Of course, such a big thing cannot be decided on a whim.

In the evening, Jia Wei finished his shift and returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

At this moment, the palace had sent someone to announce the imperial decree, and the news that Daiyu had become a first-rank lady was known to everyone in the marquis's mansion.

Although Jia Wei was the heir to two wives and both Baochai and Daiyu were his principal wives, originally only Baochai had the imperial edict. From this moment on, Daiyu was truly on an equal footing with Baochai.

It is normal for some people to be happy and some to be sad, some to be envious and some to be jealous.

That night, Jia Wei used this excuse to coax Daiyu and they had a great time.

A few days passed like this, and the court was still arguing over whether to replace the general.

On this day, news suddenly came from the palace that Emperor Xuanwu had decided to march south and lead the army in person. The Empress Dowager's persuasion was in vain, and everyone in the court and the country was shocked.

With the day chosen for the expedition, everything was settled and everything was being prepared intensively. Lin Ruhai was the busiest person in charge of preparing food and wages for the army to suppress the rebellion.

Jia Wei was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, so of course he had to accompany the emperor on his expedition, and he had been arranging various matters during these days.

Baochai is the director in the Marquis' Mansion, so Shen Lian is asked to stay in Shenjing, and the rest are the female members of the Rongguo Mansion who are under guard.

For Jia Wei, he recently discovered something big: Xiangyun was pregnant...

Xiangyun was a convicted criminal, so of course she couldn't do it openly. Jia Wei was about to leave the capital, so he could only find a chance to report the matter to Baochai and ask her to help take care of it. After all, they were good friends...

On this day, Jia Wei went to the imperial prison again to visit the two sisters Tanchun and Yingchun, and told the two girls that he was going to leave the capital to quell the rebellion.

He planned to find a chance to get Tanchun and Yingchun out after today and before leaving Beijing.

Otherwise, it would be hard to feel at ease letting them stay in the imperial prison.

At that moment, Jia Wei prepared a table of wine and food in the imperial prison, looking at Yingchun and Tanchun on both sides...
