Even though the fourth prince is arrogant and arrogant, he has not read military books less since he was a child. Now he is being beaten by the king of Huainan, and there is no room for him to fight back, which shows the means of the king of Huainan. When the crisis is at hand, everyone knows that only King Cheng can compete with him, so the entire court is the voice of King Cheng's expedition.
"I will pass on my will, and the fourth prince Jingyu will immediately hand over military power to Lu Zhanpeng, the chief soldier of Jiangnan, and Cheng Wang Jingshao will lead his own soldiers to go to Huainan!" Emperor Hongzheng took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and issued a series of orders, asking Lu Zhanpeng to be sure Jing Shao defended Pingjiang City before rushing over, and by the way recalled the Fourth Prince to let him return to the capital immediately, so as not to be embarrassed in front of the King of Huainan.
Jing Shao only smiled when he received the order, and asked General Duofu to prepare Mu Hanzhang's carriage immediately, pack the two's luggage, and let Hao Dadao go to Qixian first, and bring his personal soldiers to the south of the city to stand by.
When Mu Hanzhang came back, he saw Jing Shao who was ready to go, and the carriage that was packed.
"Wow!" Of course, there was Xiao Huang who consciously wanted to follow in the carriage.
"What are you doing with a tiger?" Mu Hanzhang looked at the tiger lying on the jade mat with a blanket, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Although Jing Shao made an appointment with Gu Huaiqing, this battle was just a pretence. Taking him to Jiangnan can be said to be on the way. What are you going to do with a tiger
"I heard that the king of Huainan has a fierce lion, and this king may not be able to restrain it, so he brought a fierce tiger to fight the battle." Jing Shao said solemnly.
Tigers? Mu Hanzhang stretched out his hand and poked Maohu's head, and the tiger immediately pulled out its white fluffy belly and looked up at him. Counting on this guy to hold the line, it is estimated that the entire army can only be wiped out...
Mu Hanzhang had to go to the palace again to explain that he and Jing Shao went to Jiangnan by the way. This time the maritime business was just a trial. There were not many officials to be sent, and they had already gone to Jiangnan first, so Mu Hanzhang had to go to Jiangnan first. Just one person. Emperor Hongzheng didn't say anything. He felt that this weak and weak daughter-in-law would not need to send another person to protect him when he followed Jing Shao, which was a relief.
Because the war was tense, and there was not even an emperor to see him off, Jing Shao ran directly to the camp in the south of the city and left with his troops.
The imperial decree in the capital was rushed to Jiangnan for 800 miles, and it arrived in the hands of the fourth prince within three days. By the time Jing Shao arrived in Jiangnan, the fourth prince had already left in despair. Lu Zhanpeng personally defended the Huainan soldiers in front of the battle. attack.
"You're here." Lu Zhanpeng gulped down a sip of tea before he was able to relax.
Seeing Lu Bird's unshaven beard, Jing Shao couldn't help laughing at him: "Why are you like Jing Yu, a king of Huainan beat you to the bottom of your shit?"
"You're just like Jing Yu!" Lu Zhanpeng rolled his eyes at him, "You don't even know how incompetent that kid is and how many troops he has lost! When I took over this mess, King Huainan's giant siege tree had already reached the city gate. Down!" Thinking about the scene at that time, I still have lingering fears.
Mu Hanzhang took Xiao Huang around the house. This house was the new house that Lu Zhanpeng helped to buy. Layer upon layer is just dazzling.
Xiao Huang took a fancy to the large garden with a bamboo forest and rushed over to take it for himself, so frightened the servants in the garden screamed in surprise.
After driving away the chattering Lu Zhanpeng, Jing Shaohuang went to the garden to look for his own princess, and saw the gurgling water flowing around the wooden water pavilion, a beauty in Tsing Yi casually leaning on the railing and reading a book quietly, the black and yellow tiger crouched at his feet. Side, holding a calf and sleeping soundly. The setting sun reflected on the handsome side face, looking peaceful and beautiful.
Jing Shao walked over slowly, the wooden water pavilion was smooth and smooth, there was no seat, and there were a few soft cushions and a low table scattered on the ground. When I got closer, I found that my princess was sitting on the ground with bare feet, a tender white foot stepped on Xiao Huang's belly, and the soft fur covered the instep, making the round toes look a little pink.
"How's the war outside?" Seeing him coming, Mu Hanzhang put down the book in his hand.
"It's getting late, the Huainan Army is back for dinner." Jing Shao said indifferently.
"Luzhou is only 30 miles away from Pingjiang. I'll be there early tomorrow morning, and I'll be back in the evening." Mu Hanzhang removed his sweaty calf from the tiger, and was immediately caught by Jing Shao and pulled him to him. around yourself.
"No, wait two more days, and I will accompany you when I drive Gu Huaiqing ten miles back." Jing Shao looked at the foot in his hand with interest, grabbed a soft sleeping paw, The soft soles scratched lightly.
Mu Hanzhang ticklishly retracted: "Luzhou has officials sent by the imperial father, won't people recognize you when you go there?"
"I'll pretend to be a servant to see you for a day, and then I'll let them move the affairs to Pingjiang," Jing Shao had already planned. "The front yard of this house is still empty, just for you to be the yamen envoy."
"But... ah..." Mu Hanzhang wanted to refute, but was carried by Jing Shao on his shoulders.
"It's getting late, shouldn't Marquis Wen Yuan perform his duty as Princess Cheng?" Jing Shao held down the person who was struggling to get down, and slapped his ass.
The next day, Jing Shao repeatedly explained that Mu Hanzhang was not allowed to go to Luzhou, and rode Xiao Hei to the front.
With nothing to do, Mu Hanzhang took out a booklet to read. This was written by Ge Ruoyi when he wanted to write the maritime business charter. The Ge family has been engaged in maritime business for generations, and naturally knows a lot about the way of doing it. Originally, I wanted to bring Ge Ruoyi over, but the scales were still small and the North Weihou Mansion was not peaceful, so I had to keep her there.
Not long after, I heard someone coming to report that someone asked to see Marquis Wen Yuan.
"Do you know who is coming?" Mu Hanzhang frowned, he didn't know a few people in Jiangnan.
"That person claimed to be the magistrate of Luzhou." The servant replied honestly.
Luzhou magistrate? How can a small magistrate be so well informed? Mu Hanzhang got up: "Let him wait in the main hall."
When Mu Hanzhang changed his clothes and went to the main hall to see the so-called magistrate of Luzhou, he couldn't help being stunned on the spot: "Brother Zhaoran!"
It was none other than Qin Zhaoran, the champion of the new division this year. Mu Hanzhang hadn't seen him since the first time he saw him at the Qionglin Banquet. He heard that he had asked him to be a parental official, but he did so unexpectedly. Luzhou magistrate.
Qin Zhaoran stared at him for a moment, and then came back to his senses, hiding the bitterness in his eyes, and bowed in salute: "Xiaguan has seen Marquis Wenyuan."
