Wangfu little dumb wife

These gentle words are touching.

Lu Xingzhou's eyes softened.

Being able to hear his daughter recognize him with his own ears in his lifetime, he felt that no matter what he had done in the past few decades, it was worth it.

"Father and mother can't be around to take care of you, you have to take good care of yourself." He replied softly.

"Ah."

At the age of 22, Wen Wan felt paternal love from the second man.

This person is her biological father.

Holding his son's little hand to say goodbye to his parents and two-year-old brother, he turned gently and returned to his carriage.

Recalling the previous scene at the gate of the city, she was a little distracted.

Jin Bao suddenly asked, "Why is mother's younger brother younger than Jin Bao?"

Wen Wan almost choked.

This stinky boy is always asking silly questions.

She said patiently: "Yan Li is younger than you, that means he is older!"

The little guy was very unhappy, "Jinbao has to be senior, and he has to take advantage of others."

Wen Wan: "...you are only young and want to take advantage of others, can you learn something better?"

Little guy: "Huh~"

When she got home, Wen Wan had nothing to do and went to chat with her mother-in-law.

From the beginning to the end, Mrs. Song and Father Song didn't know anything about Wen Wan's biological parents, they only thought that she was going out to party with other officials' wives.

On the way here, Wen Wan also warned the little guy not to talk nonsense in front of his grandparents, otherwise he would only be given plain porridge every day, no meat or snacks.

This threat is extremely useful for the gluttonous little guy. When Mrs. Song asked him where he was going, he didn't even have to look at him gently for instructions, and just said that he went to the street.

Mrs. Song said: "The national funeral on the 27th day has not yet passed, and there are no people on the street. What are you going to do?"

The little guy lied in a routine way, facing grandma's unintentional teasing questions, he sat on the armchair and swayed his short legs, while digging cold melon with a spoon and eating his mouth full, he replied: "Just take it easy. "

Naturally, Mrs. Song would not doubt her grandson, she would believe whatever Jin Bao said.

Wen Wan looked at Jin Bao like that, and couldn't help but reflect, as a father, he was steady and practical, and he did everything in a disciplined manner, so how could his son be such a cunning guy, who did he follow?

-

Emperor Guangxi didn't know about Wen Wan and Lu Xingzhou's husband and wife meeting, so even if he knew that Song Wei was his niece and son-in-law, he never took the initiative to expose this relationship.

The mode of getting along between the monarch and his ministers, how it was in the past, is still how it is now.

However, Song Wei discovered that Emperor Guangxi's temperament had changed a lot since the empress dowager's funeral, becoming paranoid and suspicious.

He always believed that the Queen Mother's death was related to Lord Lu, so he completely ignored the Queen Mother's last words before her death.

Although it wasn't too obvious, Song Wei could easily detect it after following Emperor Guangxi for so long.

At this time, he had no way of persuading him. He only thought that Emperor Guangxi was unhappy because of the death of the Empress Dowager and wanted to defeat the people under his command. The Lu family just happened to suffer from this disaster.

Just after the national funeral on the 27th, news of the defeat came from the northwest.

The ruling and opposition parties caused quite a commotion.

Some people say that it is not surprising that the soldiers of Great Chu recuperated for 20 years and were defeated by the grassland army who were good at riding and shooting in the first battle.

Some people also said that the commander-in-chief didn't use the right tactics. Back then, Lu Xingzhou, the god of war, once set a historical record of defeating the enemy's 20 troops with [-] troops, relying on strict and precise tactics.

When this word reached the ears of Emperor Guangxi, he immediately became angry in the imperial study, "Open your mouth and keep your mouth shut Lu Xingzhou, how these people criticized him because of Lu Yanqing back then, wished they could eat his flesh raw Forgot about it for a few years? Now that the border is in chaos, everyone is acting as an afterthought. Could it be that without his Lu family, I still can't keep the great Chu Wanli?"

Apart from Emperor Guangxi, there is only one Eunuch Cui in the imperial study.

As a former imperial eunuch, Eunuch Cui felt the emotional changes of Emperor Guangxi more clearly than anyone else. How dare he answer at this moment, he could only stand aside with his neck shrunk, no matter how angry the emperor was, he would not respond.

Little did he know that the more he avoided something, the more he came.

Emperor Guangxi turned his eyes to look at him after throwing things down, "Cui Fuquan, tell me, do I have to rely on his Lu family for the rest of my life to secure the throne? It's all just that the queen mother was insane and talking nonsense before she died. Now the previous court is also one-sided. They have all advised to let Lu Xingzhou come back, I am the emperor, I keep my promises, and I personally made the decree to depose Lu Xingzhou as a commoner, how can I take it back so easily!"

Eunuch Cui was cautious, "The emperor calmed down, the ministers just didn't get used to it for a while."

Emperor Guangxi stared at him, "What do you mean by not adapting?"

Eunuch Cui said: "In the past 20 years, there was no war at the border of my dynasty. Whether it is the former veterans or the new nobles of the court, they are used to the peaceful and prosperous times. Now the sudden war made them feel panic, and then came the news of the defeat. Naturally, there will be people who can’t sit still.”

"If they can't sit still, they have to mention Lu Xingzhou?"

Eunuch Cui weighed his words: "Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing for them to make a fuss. The emperor has already promoted the seventh master of the Su family. If he is sent to send troops at this time, once the victory is complete, the former god of war will be defeated." Glorious deeds have to be turned over."

Finally, he said what he heard, Emperor Guangxi frowned a little, waved his hand, "Tell Su Qing to see me."

Eunuch Cui responded, and when he exited the Qianqing Palace, he immediately raised his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurried to the commander of the capital.

After a stick of incense, Su Qing came to Qianqing Palace.

Emperor Guangxi dismissed his ceremony, and cut straight to the point, "The army in the Northwest was defeated, have you heard?"

Su Qing nodded, "I just heard about it."

"I intend to let you be the main backup." Emperor Guangxi said.

Su Qing had already made preparations when he was promoted to the governor of the left army. He was not surprised at the moment, but he did not expect that the northwest side would lose so quickly.

Concentrating his thoughts, he cupped his hands, with a solemn expression, "The humble minister has been cultivated and promoted by the emperor. As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time, if the emperor has any needs, just give orders, and the humble minister will not hesitate to do so."

……

Knowing that Su Qing was going to lead troops to the northwest for rescue, Lin Xiaoyue was full of worry, "Do I have to go?"

Su Qing said: "The emperor's order must not be violated."

"But..." Lin Xiaoyue frowned, a little hesitant, "You have never led troops to fight before, how could the emperor let you go out without worry?"

Su Qing's movement of drinking tea paused, and when he looked up, the corners of his lips showed a bit of interest, "Is the emperor worried, or are you worried?"

Lin Xiaoyue's mind was pierced, and her face was burning hot. Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, she stared back angrily, "No matter who is worried, they are all worried. Is there any difference?"

Su Qing just smiled and said nothing.

Lin Xiaoyue was overwhelmed by his reaction, "Did the emperor tell you anything else?"

"It's nothing, it's just a military order." Su Qing said lightly.

"What!" Lin Xiaoyue's worried face suddenly turned pale.

She has no experience and knows what the military order means, but if Su Qing loses this battle, he will be able to die and apologize.

"How could this happen?" Lin Xiaoyue was upset, "Qi Ye, can you think of a way not to go?"

"In the face of a national crisis, as a general, I should lead troops to repel the enemy." He said, "Escape will not solve any problems."

"But..." But Qi Ye has never actually been on the battlefield, and he issued a military order the first time he encountered it. What if the time comes... Then what will she and Ah Nuan do?

The more she thought about it, the more uncertain Lin Xiaoyue felt, she pursed her lower lip, "When will we leave?"

"The day after tomorrow." Su Qing said: "The reinforcements need to make some preparations, and the food and grass must go first."

"It's only been two days, and I still want to make you a pair of wrist and knee pads!"

Su Qing shook his head and said no, "The imperial court will prepare."

"Then what can I do for you? Or, what do you want?"

"Sit first." Su Qing pointed to the seat beside him with his eyes, "I have something to tell you."

After Lin Xiaoyue took her seat, seeing his expression suddenly became serious, she thought of something, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she felt uneasy like never before, "Is there something I haven't done well enough? Tell me, I'll change it, and I will definitely change it from now on." change."

She once saw in the story book that before soldiers went to war, they were afraid that they would never come back, so they divorced their wives ahead of time and let her go back to her natal family.

She worried that Su Qing would do the same.
