The next day, when Jun Lixuan was going to court, Ling Qiyang was still asleep. In the messy bedding, the quilt is exposed on the bare shoulders, which is quiet and moving. Jun Lixuan pulled up the quilt for him, looked at Ling Qiyang quietly for a while, and then quietly left.
Sometimes, just looking at him quietly like that, Jun Lixuan would feel very at ease in his heart, with an indescribable joy. There is no need for any gorgeous promises between him and Ling Qiyang, nor is there any need for deliberate intimacy, as long as they care for each other like this, they will feel extra comfortable. Life has also become more interesting, unlike before, I was busy with official documents and wars, but I didn't see the meaning of home with my heart.
"What are you thinking? So happy?" Jun Liyuan, who came over to wait for the morning court together, touched him. Although the expression on Jun Lixuan's face was very shallow, the smile in his eyes was still obvious.
Jun Lixuan came back to his senses, smiled and said: "It's nothing."
Jun Liyuan sized him up and said, "If you stay with Qiyang for a few more years, maybe you will lose all your hostility, and you will be able to be called Mr. Pianpianjia like the sixth child."
"How is it possible?" Jun Lixuan laughed.
"You can figure out if you have laughed more times in your eighteen years than after marrying Qi Yang, you will know." It is rare for Jun Liyuan to make fun of his younger brother, so naturally he cannot let it go.
Jun Lixuan shook his head helplessly, "You can't scare him with a cold face." He naturally knows how much he cares about Ling Qiyang, but it's better to restrain himself in front of his brother.
"I can't say much about the way you get along with my younger brother." Jun Liyuan smiled. In fact, since Mo Qingge entered the mansion, he has been in a much happier mood. It seems that he has something to look forward to every day and lives a fulfilling life.
After the morning court, Jun Lixuan and the two elder brothers first went to Yakun Palace to finish their breakfast, and then went to the Imperial Study Room together.
After seeing the ceremony, Emperor Yanxi, who changed into court clothes, said: "Get up. I sent Xuan'er to discuss with you yesterday. What do you two think?"
"Report to the emperor." Jun Liyuan stepped forward and said: "Yeguo is a vassal state of Daye, and Daye should ensure its stability so that it can be included in the property of Youguo for a long time. This is beneficial and harmless to the society. Yes. The sons and ministers are in charge of the battle. The ruler of Chize is unpopular and will be overthrown sooner or later. And it is logical for Daye to go to war with him to protect the vassal state and conform to the will of the people. The people of Zeguo have been oppressed by life for a long time, and there are many rebels, which is actually troublesome."
If Daye can repel Chi Ze, he can take the initiative. However, if there is an anti-military rebellion in the country of Chize, it seems that they are fighting against the current royal family with the country of Ye, but once the royal family is defeated, then with the minds of the people of Zhize, there will definitely be more people who support their own people than those who support the governance of the country of Ye. By that time, Daye would not only have toiled the people for the war and lost money, but would also be thankless, and would not be able to take advantage of it.
Emperor Yanxi was also aware of this, and after responding, he asked Jun Liche, "Where's Che'er?"
"I want to report to my father, my son and my third brother have the same idea. This battle must be fought, otherwise the Youguo will feel cold towards Daye, and I am afraid that Chize Kingdom will also think that Daye is afraid of them. If the country of Yau is captured by him, then with King Chize's ambition, the next one will definitely be Daye. It would be too passive to think about defending at that time." Jun Liche said his thoughts, "Just like what the third brother said He said that it is indeed not appropriate to spend time fighting this time. Ye Kingdom has been fighting for a long time, and the people in the country will inevitably panic, people's hearts will be unstable, and people's livelihood will be in trouble. And since there is going to be a war, it is best to solve the problem thoroughly to avoid further disturbances."
Emperor Yanxi looked at Jun Liche, then at Jun Liyuan, and nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, you are very thoughtful." Then he asked Jun Lixuan, "What do you think of this battle? If you are sent Go ahead, can you be sure of a quick battle?"
Emperor Yanxi didn't question whether he was sure of winning, but asked whether he could win as soon as possible, which was enough to show that he had confidence in Jun Lixuan.
"As far as the border terrain of the country is concerned, it is not complicated. But because it is not complicated, neither offense nor defense can gain an absolute advantage. I think it is best to hit with one blow and break Chize's morale. It can turn the world around." Jun Lixuan knelt down and said, "I am willing to lead the troops there, and I will certainly live up to my father's entrustment."
In the memory of his previous life, the country of Ye had never fought against the country of Chize, and Chize had always been stable, but the war in this life was imminent. But even if he has no experience in fighting against Chi Ze, it doesn't mean that Jun Lixuan will lose.
"Okay, get up." Emperor Yanxi nodded for him to stand up.
"Father, my son is willing to go with Li Xuan." Jun Liyuan solemnly asked for orders.
But Emperor Yanxi shook his head, "It's enough for you Xuan'er to go, Chi Ze is not worth sending two direct princes from Daye. Besides, when Xuan'er goes to the front line, you will always be there to take care of the safety of the capital. Che'er is not good at martial arts, so I can only feel at ease if I entrust this matter to you."
"Yes, the father is thoughtful, and the son will definitely do his best." Jun Liyuan replied. Presumably, although he was worried about Jun Lixuan, if he went with him, only Jun Liche would be left in the capital, which would be even more dangerous. It would be better for him to stay in the capital, so that he can take care of everything, and Jun Lixuan can be at ease in the front line to meet the enemy.
"Xuan'er is the main general, as for the candidate for the deputy general..." Emperor Yanxi looked at the three of them, and said, "Chengrong has been grounded all the time. Yesterday, the imperial concubine asked me to ask Chengrong to make up for it with merit and share my worries." During the period of confinement, Chengrong also wrote an apology. After all, he is my son, your elder brother. Seeing that he really knew his mistakes, I couldn't bear to be too harsh and wanted to give him a chance to make meritorious deeds. .”
Listening to Emperor Yanxi's words, none of the three showed any superfluous expressions on their faces, as if they were only listening to Emperor Yanxi's family talk.
"I thought about it all night and decided to let Chengrong be one of Xuan'er's lieutenants. I believe that with Xuan'er watching, he will not be so reckless again."
"Yes, my son complies with the order." Hearing that Emperor Yanxi's meaning had already been decided, Jun Lixuan also simply agreed. Even if he didn't want to, he didn't want to go against the emperor's wishes at this time.
"That's very good. I will discuss with the veterans about the rest of the lieutenants and tell you. As for how many troops, food, grass and supplies are needed for this expedition, you can also write a note to me, and I can make arrangements." Emperor Yanxi was very satisfied with Junli Xuan did not object to Jun Chengrong being the deputy general, so other aspects were left to him to decide, and he would not interfere any more, and at the same time, he made a new decision.
"Yes, my minister will present the notebook tomorrow." Jun Lixuan said.
"Yeah. I know you're going to fight, and Qi Yang is the one who worries me the most. I've granted you permission to take him with you. With him here, I'm also relieved. You also have to take good care of him, and don't make any mistakes." Seeing the surprise on Jun Lixuan's face, Emperor Yanxi deepened his smile.
Jun Liyuan and Jun Liche were also very surprised by the emperor's decision, but with this younger brother by their side, they don't have to worry too much, and Jun Lixuan must be at ease on the battlefield.
"I thank you, father, for protecting Qiyang thoroughly." Jun Lixuan knelt down and bowed, feeling very happy. Emperor Yanxi's decision was surprising, but it was so good that he had nothing to say.
"Okay, let's all step back." Emperor Yanxi smiled and waved his hand.
The three of them saluted and left.
When Jun Lixuan returned home, Ling Qiyang just woke up. His body was sore, so he lay lazily on the bed and didn't get up. Jun Lixuan took off his coat, lay down under the quilt, embraced the naked Ling Qiyang, pillowed it on his shoulder, and stroked his smooth skin with his fingers.
Ling Qiyang's ears turned red, and he wanted to get up, but was pressed in Jun Lixuan's arms. I had no choice but to open my mouth to find a topic to avoid this embarrassing embarrassment, "Why did you come back? Have you had breakfast?"
"I've eaten. I discussed the war with my father in the imperial study. My father sent me to go to war." Jun Lixuan said in a low voice. Ling Qiyang's hoarse voice made him very attractive.
Ling Qiyang was silent for a moment, then stretched out his arms to hug him, "When are you leaving? I'll make you some medicine and bring it with you."
"Didn't I say I would put you in a box and take you away?" Jun Lixuan said with a smile.
Ling Qiyang stared at him, "Don't think of such a strange method."
Jun Lixuan pinched the tip of his nose, "You little thing, don't you want to go with me?"
"Think." Ling Qiyang buried his face in his arms, his voice muffled.
Jun Lixuan ran down his hair and said, "Then let's go together."
Ling Qiyang raised his eyes to look at him, Jun Lixuan said with a smile: "Father has allowed you to go with me."
"Really?" Ling Qiyang sat up in surprise, not expecting the quilt to slide down, the entire upper body was exposed in Jun Lixuan's sight, and the lower body was also faintly visible between the arms. Seeing this, Ling Qiyang hurriedly pulled up the quilt, as a wife, it's one thing to be in love with Jun Lixuan, but it's another thing to let Junlixuan see it indiscriminately.
Jun Lixuan pulled him over with a smile, and lightly bit his ear that was so red that it was bleeding, "Of course it's true."
"How could the emperor..."
"Probably because I am afraid that I will be distracted on the battlefield."
Ling Qiyang leaned on Jun Lixuan relaxedly, smiling more and more intensely.
"There is one more thing." Jun Lixuan said: "Father pointed out Elder Brother to be my lieutenant general, saying that it was the imperial concubine's request."
Ling Qiyang frowned slightly, his mind turned quickly, "Imperial Concubine?"
"Yes. Although I don't want to take him with me, it's not easy to refute my father's intention." Jun Lixuan felt the warm skin on his hand, and couldn't put it down.
"What do you think?" Ling Qiyang asked.
"I want to hear what you mean." Jun Lixuan threw the question back to him.
Ling Qiyang thought for a while, then snorted, "The imperial concubine has a plan."
"How to say?" Jun Lixuan became interested.
"If the eldest prince goes with you this time, in case of an accident, who do you think is responsible?" Ling Qiyang continued without waiting for him to answer: "If the eldest prince really has an accident, even if it has nothing to do with you, Concubine Ying Aizi is eager, and you will be the first one to blame. Regardless of whether the emperor believes it or not, if Concubine Ying thinks so, then even if she has separate plans with the concubine, she will stand by the concubine wholeheartedly by then side."
Jun Lixuan listened quietly without interrupting.
"If Concubine Ying loses her son, she will be at odds with you. On the one hand, Imperial Concubine got rid of the Eldest Prince and removed an obstacle for her own son, and on the other hand, Concubine Ying made you die. Regardless of whether you killed her in the end. Concubine Ying, whether it is Concubine Ying who defeats you, it is all beneficial to the imperial concubine. If this makes the emperor dissatisfied with you, even if you defeat Concubine Ying, you will lose the emperor. Heart, maybe it will also involve the emperor's mother, the third brother and the sixth brother. With such a double-edged sword, the imperial concubine can reap the benefits of the fisherman. Without any effort, she can establish the position of the fifth prince, which is equivalent to establishing her own position From this point of view, if I were the imperial concubine, I would definitely do everything possible to make the eldest prince go and never return." Ling Qiyang held Jun Lixuan's hand, and was very disgusted with royal fights.
"You're still smart." Jun Lixuan clasped Ling Qiyang's fingers, sometimes firmly and sometimes lightly.
"It's not that you don't understand, but let me explain it to make the context clearer." Jun Lixuan's intelligence has always been hidden very deeply.
Jun Lixuan laughed, "With you here, I'm too lazy to use my brain."
Ling Qiyang snorted softly and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
"I didn't think of it for the time being. It is imperative to take the big emperor brother out. Let's talk about it after leaving Beijing. It will be convenient to do whatever you want at that time." A strategy can only be regarded as a strategy when it has not been seen through by others. He is not moving now. The sensuality only made the imperial concubine think that he had entered the game, and waited for her to relax her vigilance before fighting back.
"Yeah." Ling Qiyang closed his eyes, but the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened a bit - being with Jun Lixuan always made him feel very at ease.
— Even if you go to the battlefield, you are not afraid.
