Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 800 The Strange Huns
Having fun in bitterness, it is estimated that they are talking about the two of them.

It is obviously very abnormal for the Huns to send troops at this time.But after waiting for five full days, King Lin did not see any reaction. At this time, Marquis Jingwu finally arrived at the border to confront the Xiongnu.

According to reason, the Xiongnu's previous letter of state asked Dalai to cede the city, and the tone was so loud that they almost wanted to capture Dalai. This time, they should go all out.But after Rong Yu led his troops past, the opponent's coach suddenly ordered his troops to withdraw.

It was really strange, Jing Wuhou originally thought that the opponent was just bluffing, but when he saw their army coming to support him, he became timid, so he chose to retreat.Now that the opponent has retreated, there is no need for them to stay here.

After staying for two days, Marquis Jingwu ordered his troops to return to the court, but he didn't expect that the group of bastards would attack the door again just after the army was reorganized. It was to make fun of him.

Marquis Jingwu was in a hurry, and he didn't mention the matter of going back. When he thought of the Huns being so rampant, he directly changed the battle plan, and Rong Yu led a small team to ambush him secretly, while he led the troops to cooperate.

Naturally, this strange move of the Huns was not reported back to the capital.Xia Shengqing flipped through the memorial, squinted at the Minister of the Ministry of War who was kneeling on the ground, and glanced at the ministers one by one, "Why do you think the Xiongnu did this?"

Xia Zijin was sitting on a chair, drinking tea, and his eyes were stern. What else could there be? I am afraid that the Xiongnu did not come here for Da Lai's supplies in the first place. Their behavior seems to be deliberately attracting Da Lai's troops. Damn it, it's a pity that they don't know what the hell they want to do.

But among them, Lin Wang's handwriting was indispensable, she subconsciously looked at Lin Wang who was standing among the courtiers, but unfortunately, Lin Wang lowered his head and looked respectfully at this moment, but she couldn't find anything wrong.

When she was looking at King Lin, King Lin noticed it, and kept supporting himself to let her watch, until she looked away, King Lin heaved a sigh of relief, and secretly clenched his fists.

As long as Xia Zijin doesn't move him at this time, in two days, when the army overwhelms the city...

A gleam of light flashed across Lin Wang's cloudy eyes, and he thought with a little complacency.Xia Zijin didn't know what he was thinking, if he knew, he would definitely find it strange.After all, he didn't have a soldier talisman in his hand.

"My lord, my eldest princess, this old minister thinks this is a trick of the Huns. The Huns are greedy and cunning by nature. Now they are wandering around while fighting. They are obviously playing tricks on me. It looks like they are holding back..." I don't blame this old minister. It can be guessed, but the Xiongnu's move is too obvious, "The old minister is worried that they are deliberately grinding the temper of Lord Hou and Shizi, so that they will make wrong decisions on impulse."

It's not impossible, Xia Zijin applauded, "Master Fu is reasonable, but he seems to have forgotten one thing. This way of fighting is very resource-intensive. Although Dalai has experienced two wars, many places have died. They suffered a disaster, but they are far richer than the Xiongnu, so they are looking for death in this way of fighting?"

The old minister who spoke before immediately shut his mouth, unable to utter a word, his face flushed, stammering, and finally he could only sigh, "What the eldest princess said is that the humble minister has not thought carefully."

"No, Master Fu, your idea is very good." Xia Zijin had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes lit up, "It's just that we have to change the direction, for example, who secretly provided supplies to the Huns."

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Fu didn't turn the corner for a while. After realizing it, she immediately widened her eyes, "The eldest princess means that someone secretly provided military pay to the Huns? But who would do this? ? What benefits can he get?"

Even if the Xiongnu got the military salary, it would be impossible to win Dalai, at most it would be a matter of a few pieces of cloth and silver, but if it was about capturing a city, even if the Xiongnu had the ability, they would not do so.

The Huns were extremely conceited, calling themselves the eagles of the grassland, so how could they be willing to stay in the city?

"That's right! I'm also very surprised about this, and I can't explain it." Xia Zijin glanced at King Lin, and smiled slightly, "I wonder if Uncle Lin Huang knows why?"

Being called by her at this time, no matter how you look at it, it looks like something tricky, King Lin's body froze for a moment, and then he laughed dryly, "This king has never been involved in military affairs, but I don't know why."

He said without saying a word or humble, and pushed the matter away with one sentence.But since just now, Xia Zijin has been paying attention to his demeanor and movements, and he is keenly aware that when he just called him, his body froze for a moment. Although it is not certain that the matter is caused by King Lin, it is almost the same.

Xia Zijin pursed his lips, and uttered another piece of news that made him shudder, "I heard that Uncle Lin's adopted son has disappeared recently?"

King Lin suddenly raised his head, and met her provocative eyes. He didn't understand that Lin Chuying must have run to the eldest princess's mansion. Thinking of what Lin Chuying heard before, King Lin couldn't restrain his killing intent Come on, it took a long time to suppress the killing intent in my heart.

"Yes. The eldest princess asked this question, but do you know where the dog is?" Lin Wang raised a fatherly smile.

Xia Zijin gagged while watching.She felt it was funny in her heart, obviously he was the one who hurt her son like that, but now he looked concerned and didn't know who to fool.

Xia Zijin rolled her eyes, feeling uneasy, and put down the teacup in her hand, "Uncle Lin has really done his best for this adopted son. If I see him, I will definitely take him back to the mansion and send someone to inform the uncle, uncle You can rest assured."

The implication is that he is now in her eldest princess's mansion, if Lin Wang has the courage, he will come to her mansion to pick him up.

Such an obvious trap, Lin Wang would not believe it unless he was stupid.At that moment, he smiled hypocritically, "Then I would like to thank the eldest princess."

Seeing his bland smile, Xia Zijin's back was covered with a layer of fine bumps, and the chill continued to grow.

Xia Shengqing watched her confrontation with King Lin in silence, and seeing that she didn't take advantage of it, she became displeased, and snorted coldly, "King Lin, the important thing is now the war, as for your son, it will be fine if you lose it for a while, you should Focus on big things."

Being reprimanded by him suddenly, Lin Wang couldn't react for a while, looked up at him in surprise, saw that his eyes were squinted, his face was stern, his chest seemed to be stuffed with a ball of cotton, so he had to bow his head to respond. yes.

This damned Xia Shengqing was clearly finding fault on purpose to vent his anger on Xia Zijin!Lin Wang thought bitterly.

If it wasn't for the arrival of the army soon, the two of them would have no capital to be arrogant, and he would definitely argue back.

Seeing that Lin Wang gave in so easily, Xia Shengqing slowly narrowed his eyes, and the murderous intent in his pupils almost burst out.Lin Wang suffered such a secret loss but did not refute, it is really not his nature.

This point was not only clear to him, but Xia Zijin was also well aware of it.Therefore, Xia Zijin couldn't help but look up at Xia Shengqing, and it was not surprising to see suspicion in the eyes of both parties.

"It's good that the prince understands. As for the Xiongnu, no matter what they want to do, if they pass on the order, it will change if it is too late. Let the Lord Hou and the others step up their offensive and repel the Xiongnu as soon as possible." Xia Shengqing gave the order directly.

He always had a feeling that the Huns sent troops at this time to attract Dalai's troops so as to expose the capital.The traces of this thought in his heart became heavier and heavier, disturbing him uneasy.

That's why he gave the order just now, but now that the capital is guarded by the Imperial Forest Army, it is not so easy to attack it.Thinking of this, Xia Shengqing calmed down a little.

It is precisely because the commander of the Imperial Forest Army has long been replaced by his people, so when Jingwuhou asked to lead troops to the border to fight against the Huns, he let Rong Yu go with him. Things still need younger generals.

After retiring from the court, Xia Zijin and Xia Shengqing went out of the palace together, and happened to meet King Lin at the gate of the palace. Xia Zijin and Xia Shengqing looked at each other, and walked over hand in hand, "What is Uncle Lin doing these days?"

When Lin Wang thought of Lin Chuying in her hands, he felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly. Fortunately, Lin Chuying only heard a short passage of what he had said to Lin Runyu, even if he heard it all, it was useless, he didn't know what a chess piece was.

King Lin raised the corners of his lips and cupped his hands, "It's nothing, it's just a walk in the mansion. This king is old, and young princesses like you have to worry about things in this community."

Hearing his words that he didn't covet fame and fortune at all, Xia Zijin almost cried out of emotion.It's a pity that no one can believe that Lin Wang has no ambitions.Seeing that he couldn't get his words out, Xia Zijin lost the interest to continue talking with him.

After returning to the mansion, Xia Zijin rushed to check on Lin Chuying's situation. Lin Chuying had been unconscious since she was rescued last night. According to common sense, there was very little hope of waking up.

She was a little worried when she went to see him, worried that he would die just like that.One is that he broke his promise, and the other is that King Lin has already known about his affairs in the Princess Mansion. If he just died in the mansion, it is impossible for King Lin to use him to attack her.

Xia Zijin rubbed the bracelet on her wrist, raised her hand to signal the saluting maid to stand up, opened the door and went in, only to see that the person who was lying down with her eyes closed was sitting on the bed and was being fed porridge by the maid beside her. .

She was stunned for a while before she realized, suppressing the excitement in her heart, she stepped forward, "Are you awake? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

Lin Chuying was about to stand up and salute when she heard the sound of breaking in, but Xia Zixu held her up, "You are injured, so there is no need to salute."

"Eldest Princess, what happened before was wrong." Lin Chuying was full of shame. He was in vain of his self-esteem, but he was deceived by King Lin, and he went to assassinate Xia Zijin without even knowing who killed his mother. It's a shame!
