Chapter 202
Since the war at the border, Fang Ze's escape from prison is no longer important. The barbarian cavalry are very fierce. Although the border has not been lost, the guards stick to it, which is obviously not objective.In the past few days, Emperor Yanxi stayed in the imperial study room at night, and did not visit any concubines. During this day and night, he was still discussing state affairs with Tai Fulin, and the voice of the chief eunuch came from outside the imperial study room.

"The servant kowtowed to the imperial concubine. Your Majesty is discussing important matters with the Tai Tuo. It is not convenient to see your majesty. If you have any orders from your majesty, you can ask this servant to pass them on to your majesty." The Chief Eunuch Xishun said respectfully.

Wei Qingyin was a little displeased, but still ordered Linglong to hand over the food box to Xishun, with a soft voice: "I know that Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, and this ginseng chicken soup is cooked by me, so I ask my father-in-law to pass it on to the emperor."

"Slave to send you off!" After Xishun sent Wei Qingyin away, he knocked on the door of the imperial study room and delivered the food box. Although there was also night food from the imperial dining room, Wei Qingyin took advantage of it. Naturally, Xishun wanted to serve the chicken soup.

"The imperial concubine really has a heart." Taifu Lin said, these days have been chicken soup every night.

Emperor Yanxi's expression was slightly gentle, and it was getting late at night, so he said: "Maybe the Grand Tutor will come with me?"

"No, no, I don't dare. I suggest we discuss it tomorrow. What do you think, Your Majesty?" Lin Muyuan declined.

Emperor Yanxi didn't force it, he just said: "Then Taifu will think carefully about who is the most suitable to send to guard the border this time."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will give the emperor an answer tomorrow." Lin Muyuan said.

Drinking the still hot chicken soup, Emperor Yanxi thought of Wei Qingyin's graceful figure and beautiful face in his mind, and felt that this chicken soup was also extraordinarily delicious. "Come here, drive Chen Palace!" Feeling warm in his belly, Emperor Yanxi had the urge to hug Wei Qingyin into his arms, so he ordered.

When Emperor Yanxi arrived, Wei Qingyin was taking a bath, as if she had guessed that Emperor Yanxi would come, a smug smile appeared on her beautiful face. "Your Majesty, the concubines are not dressed yet!" Seeing Emperor Yanxi coming in, Wei Qingyin said shyly.

Emperor Yanxi smiled, turned everyone away, stepped forward and said: "Then let me help my concubine get dressed?"

The woman smiled sweetly, and got up from the bathtub, the snow-white Miaoman's body was wet, Emperor Yanxi felt his body was burning hot, so he pulled a dry cloth to wrap Wei Qingyin up, and then carried him to the bed.The candlelight is flickering, the red tent is full of spring scenery, and then there is a room full of obsession.After the cloud and rain, Wei Qingyin rested her pillow on Emperor Yanxi's chest, paddling with her small hands dishonestly.

"Is the emperor very troubled recently?" Wei Qingyin said softly, panting delicately.

"My concubine, don't worry, I'm fine." Embracing Wei Qingyin's weak and boneless body, Emperor Yanxi felt the tranquility of this moment.

"Your Majesty, don't blame Qingyin for being troublesome, but His Majesty is worried about the border war?" Wei Qingyin said.

"Why, can my concubine have a good understanding?" Ladies in the harem are not allowed to engage in politics, but after hearing Wei Qingyin say this, Emperor Yanxi didn't feel disgusted, instead it was just a casual chat.

"The concubine has nothing to say. When the concubine is in Weiguo, there will be small border countries that disturb the people. The father and the emperor often conquest by the emperor himself. The concubine is afraid that the emperor will have this intention." Wei Qingyin said worriedly, yes Standing up, he looked at Emperor Yanxi and said.

Royal conquest?Emperor Yanxi never thought about it.

"My father said in the past that if the king of the country can fight with the soldiers at the frontier, it will greatly boost the morale of the whole country. But when the father goes out, the mother and the concubine will have trouble sleeping and eating, and they are very worried. , Qingyin is also afraid that the emperor will do this." Wei Qingyin frowned, with worry on her small face.

Emperor Yanxi's heart skipped a beat. This Xia Kingdom has been peaceful for a long time. Li Qing used to be the great general protecting the country of Xia, which made the barbarians frightened, but he was too pedantic, so he had no choice but to act.After losing this general, Fang Ze, Jiang Hao, and Du Fang can stand up to Li Qing.The general who was going to guard the frontier, the court could not find him, the veteran was old, and the young general had no actual combat experience, so it was a good idea for the imperial conscript to march in person. "My concubine, it's late at night, let's rest!" Emperor Yanxi said.

Wei Qingyin wanted to say something else, but seeing that Emperor Yanxi had closed her eyes, she just lay down on the side as if aggrieved.

In the morning court on the second day, whether it was recommended by other officials or self-recommended, Emperor Yanxi felt that there was something lacking. Xia Guo hadn't fought a war for ten years, and these people were too unfamiliar. "I want to conquer in person, what do you think?" After thinking about it, Emperor Yanxi asked.

Lin Muyuan was a little surprised, why did he suddenly have such an image? "Your Majesty, the situation at the border is unclear, please think twice, Your Majesty."

"Before I succeeded to the throne, I also went to the East China Sea. After succeeding to the throne, I also fought against the Hu people. This time the Hu people invaded. I want to fight by myself and defend the border with all the soldiers. What do you think is wrong?" Yan Yan The more Emperor Xi thought about it, the more he felt that going to war was the best choice. He was in his prime, the crown prince was not yet crowned, and there was no one available in the court. Who else could be more suitable than him?
After Fang Ze's downfall, all his direct influences were uprooted. These officials were all promoted from the local area, and some of them were disciples of the Son of Heaven.Most of them were fresh faces, and most of them were young. Hearing that Emperor Yanxi said that the royal conquest was a personal conquest, it also aroused the blood of many people. The veterans were all against it, but the court actually agreed with it.

"The emperor's personal conquest is undoubtedly the greatest encouragement to the soldiers at the border. I am willing to go out with the emperor." The one who spoke was last year's champion of martial arts. When Fang Ze was here, he was not reused. If it is removed, he is the superior.

Lin Muyuan was a little helpless. Although Yujia's personal conquest can indeed boost morale, it is also true that the border is dangerous. However, he is a civil servant after all, and all the military officers whose morale has been aroused are all high-spirited, which makes him speechless.

Emperor Yanxi felt that from this point of view, his decision was correct, and he became more certain in his heart. The decision was made at the moment. After retiring from the court, he asked Lin Muyuan to give the list of generals who will go out this time.

"Your Majesty, what made the Emperor make this decision overnight?" Lin Muyuan was very puzzled, and wanted to persuade him.

"I'm just lamenting that there is no one in court right now." Emperor Yanxi sighed, this country of Xia has always valued culture over military, and when Fang Ze was here, he excluded dissidents, which resulted in no one available during the war.

"Has the emperor really made a decision?" Lin Muyuan was also helpless, if there was someone, it would not have been discussed for so long.

"Yes, I have already decided."

"Then invite the emperor's quasi-ministers to follow." Lin Muyuan said, if he had a suggestion, it would be twice the result with half the effort.

"It's better for Taifu to stay in Beijing to teach the emperor." Emperor Yanxi said, "The prince is young, and I only hope that he can become a qualified prince."

However, Lin Muyuan said in opposition: "Your Majesty, the prince is generous and sensible. The prince learns quickly what the minister taught me. I believe that the prince can continue as before when the minister is away. Only the war is tight. Although the minister I don't have the strength to restrain a chicken, but it can help the emperor strategize, and I ask the emperor to allow it."

Emperor Yanxi thought for a while, then nodded and said, the next step is to determine the date.

Wei Qingyin soon found out about Emperor Yanxi's decision, and she was happy in her heart, and the next step was about to take place.That night, when Emperor Yanxi came to Xingchen Palace, Wei Qingyin was kneeling on the ground, sobbing softly.

"Why is this dear concubine?" Emperor Yanxi asked a little puzzled.

"Has the emperor really decided to take the imperial conquest? It's all Qingyin's fault. If Qingyin doesn't mention it, the emperor won't go." Wei Qingyin raised her head, her eyes dim with tears.

Emperor Yanxi lifted Wei Qingyin up, wiped away her tears, and said in a doting tone: "What does this have to do with my concubine, I should thank my concubine for doing me a great favor."

"Your majesty, take your concubine with you and let your concubine go out with the emperor." What Wei Qingyin said next caught Emperor Yanxi by surprise.

"My concubine, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm going to fight, how can I take you with me?" Emperor Yanxi said.

"Your majesty, the concubine is one of the emperor's relatives in the palace. When the emperor goes out to fight, the concubine must be restless, thinking about it day and night. Instead of letting the concubine wait in the palace, you might as well take the concubine with you." Wei Qingyin looked up at Emperor Yanxi, her eyes were moist, and tears welled up in her eye sockets, as if they would fall in the next second.

"Nonsense, how can I bring you, my concubine, you can rest assured and wait for my triumphant return." Emperor Yanxi frowned slightly, a little serious, but his tone was comforting.

"Your Majesty, my concubine will really be worried." Wei Qingyin still begged a little.

"Does Concubine Ai feel that I can't return in triumph?" Emperor Yanxi asked with a straight face.

"No, the emperor will definitely be able to defeat the barbarians, and when he returns victorious, it's the concubine who is reluctant to part with the emperor!" Wei Qingyin threw himself into Emperor Yanxi's arms, crying.

Holding Wei Qingyin in his arms, Emperor Yanxi comforted him softly: "Silly girl, be good, wait for me in the palace with peace of mind."

Wei Qingyin seemed to be suppressing her grief, leaning against Emperor Yanxi, choked up and said: "Your Majesty, can I go to Ciyun Temple to pray for the Emperor tomorrow?"

"Well, I also pray for my generals and soldiers of the Xia Kingdom." Emperor Yanxi's heart softened. Although Wei Qingyin was small, she was charming and charming, and she could best give him a sense of stability.

"The concubine still wants to ask for a peace talisman for the emperor, and the emperor must carry it with him. This is the concubine's wish." Wei Qingyin said again.

"Okay, when you ask for it, I will definitely carry it with me."

The news of Emperor Yanxi's imperial conquest spread quickly, and it really encouraged the people. On the day he issued his certificate, the people lined the road to see him off.Shen Qingzi and Ji Wuye were on the upper floor condescendingly looking down at Emperor Yanxi and his party escorting food and grass, but they didn't have much emotion. "Emperor Yanxi's personal conquest, do you think this is normal?" Shen Qingzi couldn't help asking Ji Wuye.

"Normal is not normal." Ji Wuye said: "Emperor Yanxi also fought in all directions back then. I just sigh, is there so no one in the Xia Dynasty?"

"Who knows, I just hope that our Majesty can return in triumph, and then I will settle my Li family's debt with him!" Shen Qingzi said, looking at the long line with a dignified expression.
