Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 875
Shen Yuan and several generals were drinking tea when Ji Xun and Qi Hengdi came in, and everyone hurriedly stood up.

"I'm hungry, let's eat." Emperor Qi Heng said directly, and Ah Qin and Jiang Yuan hurriedly arranged to go.

And here Shen Yuan just had a bet with Niu Zhi, and wanted to know the result.

Shen Yuan turned her gaze to her husband, raised an eyebrow at him, and wanted to get a winning call from him.

But Ji Xun came directly to hold Shen Yuan tightly in his arms, buried his face in her neck and shoulders and did not speak for a long time.

He broke the dead game and saved his son. No one knew how excited he was at the moment.

If he can break this situation today, he will definitely be able to break the theory of the witch boy tomorrow, just wait and see.

"Ah Xun, it's okay to lose. How can there be any reason to win back through the ups and downs of life?" Shen Yu'an thought that Ji Xun worked so hard but lost, and felt uncomfortable if he didn't succeed, so he patted Ji Xun on the shoulder to comfort him.

At this time, Emperor Qi Heng was meaningfully answering the words beside him.

"That brat won, I~~ lost."

Shen Yuan was very happy when he heard that, he pushed away his husband's handsome face, and stretched towards Niu Zhi with one hand on his waist and the other.

"Haha, I've won, General Niu, bring me ten taels of silver."

Convinced by the defeat, Niu Zhi returned the 100 taels and the ingot of silver to Shen Yuan, and then everyone ate together.

After dinner, it was already dark, so Ji Xun listened to the reports from several lieutenants in his tent.

Niu Zhidao, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the battlefield has been cleaned up. According to statistics, Zhu Xiangyu took away 38 soldiers."

Both the emperor and the night king nodded. 38 soldiers, if the river can break through the ice, is enough to defend Jinzhou.

Lin Yi continued to report.

"Our side killed more than five thousand soldiers, and their hometowns were from the south. The remains and pension money were arranged to be sent back to their hometown.

"My native place is too far in the north, so I can only be buried locally, and the pension can't be delivered right now, so I can only wait after the war is over."

"En." Ji Xun nodded, "Remember to erect a monument and engrave all the names of the soldiers who died in battle on it. "

"Yes, my subordinates know." Lin Yi took the order.

"Then Zhu Xiangyu's soldiers who died in battle should erect monuments? The subordinates have already sent someone to bury them together." Niu Zhi asked.

"The same monument." Ji Xun nodded firmly, "They are also soldiers of our Dasheng Kingdom, although they lost their lives innocently."

"Okay, the subordinates know." Niu Zhi nodded heavily, thankful that the Night King was surrendered at the beginning, otherwise the Night King is probably telling his subordinates to erect a monument for him and his soldiers now!
He Mang also opened his mouth to report, "The distribution of food to the victims is not so fast, and many of the victims who have traveled a long distance may have not arrived yet, so it is estimated that we should set up a point here."
"Yes, then set up a point here." Ji Xun said, looking at Emperor Qi Heng, and asked for instructions, "Father, the minister there thinks that the camp can be allocated in a few days, and advance to Jinzhou while doing disaster relief."
"Well, it's up to you to decide. You know more about the battlefield than I do." Naturally, Emperor Qi Heng would not have any objections, and he was happy to relax.

Now, I am really looking forward to Princess Ye giving birth to a grandson, he is so fond of grandchildren.

Three days later, the Night King's army marched northward, and the people lined the road to welcome them.

Zhu Xiangyu burned, killed and looted in the front, while the Night King distributed food and rescued the people in the back, winning the hearts of the people.

Capital, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wei Xuanyuan was sitting in the study drinking tea and reviewing the memorial.

During this period of time, he was reviewing memorials in the prime minister's mansion during the day, and went to the palace to play with Xia Luoluo at night. He lived a very nourishing life and became fatter.

Although Yi Yirong looked like a middle-aged man, the exposed part of his neck was delicate and firm, especially those hands were clearly the hands of a young man.

In the memorial, it is all about the itinerary for the winter solstice festival, which is quite extravagant and wasteful.

"These dog officials, what sacrifices to heaven, are just exploiting layer upon layer, and they all want to get a fortune out of it."

"National affairs are still undecided, the traitor of the Night King has not been eliminated, what is the sacrifice? Hmph."
Wei Xuanyuan re-patted the memorial in his hand on the table, picked up a pen and began to write "imperial decree", canceling all activities of worshiping heaven.

After writing this, I stamped the jade seal and laughed.

"Wait for Laozi to get rid of all the people and sit on the throne, and then the whole country will celebrate, and then come to sacrifice to heaven, hahahaha!"

Just as he was smiling smugly, the door curtain was raised, and Zhou Qian hurried in with a robe in his left hand and a letter in his right. "Master, a letter from General Zhu."

"Hurry up and bring it." Wei Xuanyuan stood up abruptly, with an eager look on his face.

His great cause, his country, and his throne are all in this letter, I just hope it is a good news!
However, after he opened the letter, he suddenly took three steps back and fell down on the armchair.

"Defeated? Actually lost? This~~This is impossible! Impossible!"

With a shocked expression on his face, Wei Xuanyuan picked up the letter and read it several times before leaning back weakly in his chair.

When Zhou Qian took the letter from Xinshi, he already knew about Zhu Xiangyu's defeat and retreat to Jinzhou, so he was not too surprised at the moment.

Gritting his teeth, he cursed angrily, "Night King is really cunning, he actually launched a surprise attack, otherwise General Zhu would not be defeated."

Wei Xuanyuan stood there with a sluggish face. During this period of time, he was dreaming of Zhu Xiangyu's victory and returning home every day, dreaming of enthroning as emperor, but what he couldn't imagine was such a thunderbolt from the blue sky!
Zhou Qian was afraid that Wei Xuanyuan would vent his anger on himself, so he quickly comforted him.

"Master, don't worry, General Zhu said in the letter that the Jinzhou River can break the ice, so there is only one bridge to pass through."

"So what if the Night King has more soldiers? It's useless. Unless they grow wings, how can they get into Jinzhou? How can they get into the capital?"
"That's the case, what can the master do to win you when he ascends the throne as Dita Night King? At worst, give him the Southwest."

"Send him off? Impossible." Wei Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes fiercely, "After Lao Tzu ascends the throne, I will definitely recruit troops and personally lead troops to eradicate this traitor! Take back the Southwest."

His face looked a little bit better, and even a smug look appeared on his face.

"If the King of the Night can't attack the capital, he will bite me? In this way, wouldn't the capital and the throne still belong to Lao Tzu?"

Seeing that Wei Xuanyuan had come to life after listening to his words, Zhou Qian hurriedly climbed up the pole.

"The master is right. After you sit on the throne, you will recruit troops and expand your army."

"Wait until the day when you are strong enough to regain the lost ground and eradicate the traitor Night King."

Having said that, I kept muttering in my heart, I was afraid that you would become a traitor after assuming the throne~~ The Night King would become justifiable.

But he didn't dare to say this, for fear that Wei Xuanyuan would end him with a sword.

Wei Xuanyuan seemed to see through his mind and snorted.

"What? Are you worried that I will become a traitor? It's okay, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. As long as you have swords, soldiers and strength, who would dare to say that you are a traitor?"

"Write a letter to Zhu Xiangyu, telling him to guard Jinzhou well." Wei Xuanyuan got up while talking, "I'll go to the palace to have a look, pick a day to think of a way, and I will be enthroned as emperor."
