The eighth year of Qianyuan.

Jiang Huai sat in front of Emperor Qianyuan with his hands folded on his chest, his eyes widened and his face wary.

Emperor Qi Yuan glanced at Jiang Huai, his hand holding the teapot paused, and he was so angry that he piled the teapot heavily on the table.

"You stinky boy, what's your attitude? You're just drinking a cup of tea with me, why don't you show me this stinky face?"

Jiang Huai snorted, reached for the teapot, poured Emperor Qian Yuan a cup of tea, poured himself another cup, raised his eyebrows, and said, "You said it yourself, just drink tea!"

Emperor Qi Yuan choked, and a ball of hot air got stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down.

After a long while, he took a deep breath, suppressed the suffocation in his chest, and said angrily: "Just like your uncle, he has a bad temper! No, you have followed your mother's bad temper, you are smelly and hard. !”

Jiang Huai shouted that he was wronged, "Your Majesty, my mother is really more wronged than Dou E! The majestic wife of a first-class Duke of the country is exposed in public all day long, and the reason for that is..."

"Who is Dou E?"

Emperor Qi Yuan's words that were neither salty nor bland made Jiang Huai fall into a rare silence.

The chief eunuch looked on and silently retreated to the screen, breathing even three cents lighter.

After all, Jiang Huai couldn't calm down, waved his hand and said helplessly: "Okay, Your Majesty, just tell me, what are your orders?"

Emperor Qian Yuan raised his eyebrows, glanced at the eunuch chief beside him, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Jiang Huai completely lost his temper, sat upright, and waved to the head eunuch to give him a snack.

The snacks were almost finished, and Emperor Qi Yuan also put down his tea cup.

"Border Pass sent an urgent report a few days ago. Qingniu Pass is about to be lost!"

Jiang Huai's eyebrows twitched, and his black eyes looked at Emperor Qi Yuan dimly, his eyes full of silent accusations.

"Uncle is not in Beijing! I don't know where he is!"

Emperor Qi Yuan pinched his brows and sighed: "Your uncle doesn't serve as a general or receive military talismans. All the civil servants in the dynasty are turning to him, so I can't just issue orders! But Qingniu is very important for border defense. Your uncle is in the three battles at the border." Three wins, the enemy generals tremble when they hear Jiao Xian's name! Your uncle has been away from the border these past few years, and they are back again, and General Yang can no longer hold on!"

Jiang Huai's expression gradually became serious.

My uncle is the champion of martial arts, and his ability in leading troops and forming formations is unrivaled in the court!
But he was also the scholar champion. Which civil servant in the Manchu Dynasty would be willing to let him fight against the enemy outside?
Even for the sake of the old teacher, you can't force him to take charge, right?It’s not like there are no generals in the DPRK!
My uncle went to the border to lead troops to fight just to temper himself, but he never thought about relying on military merit to get ahead!

On the first day he returned from the border, he returned the military symbols and resigned from the post of general, in order to travel around the country and do what he wanted to do.

Their whole family agrees with this!
Thinking of this, Jiang Huai rubbed his face hard and said as if he had a toothache: "Your Majesty, my adoptive mother will not let me lead troops to fight. If she knows that I went to the border without telling her, you have to think about the consequences. , she won’t talk to you like my mother does!”

Emperor Qi Yuan's eyebrows jumped twice. At this moment, he fully realized the helplessness of being an emperor.

But the next second, his expression suddenly turned ferocious, and cruel words burst out from his teeth: "Then I will send General Rong to defend Qingniu Pass! Let's see if she can't let go of her husband or her son!"

Jiang Huai took a deep breath, leaned back, and looked at Emperor Qi Yuan's seemingly twisted face in shock.

"Being born into the royal family, this is a choice she must face. At worst, I will go and plead guilty to her! If the border is lost and Nanchen Kingdom sends its army southward, I, as the emperor, will not have to do anything!"

Jiang Huai swallowed, and the tea cup in his hand tightened, and it broke with a "bang".

Emperor Qi Yuan looked at Jiang Huai, and Jiang Huai looked at Emperor Qi Yuan. "Oh, the prince's hand is bleeding!"

The head eunuch exclaimed, and the palace maids and Fu Li outside the door ran in, and the imperial study suddenly became a mess.

After a while, Jiang Huai raised his hand that was wrapped into a rice dumpling and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, your move is too damaging! It's so shameless!"

Emperor Qi Yuan looked away with a guilty conscience, cleared his throat, and said: "I can hardly defend my country and territory, so why do I need any more dignity?"

After coming out of the palace, Jiang Huai looked up at the bright blue sky and white clouds above his head, and sighed leisurely.

Fu Li glanced at his master, frowned, and asked, "Sir, what did your Majesty tell you?"

"Nothing. Get ready and follow me to the border."

Fu Li's eyes narrowed and he responded calmly.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Huai suddenly stopped and looked sideways at Fu Li.

"You are not allowed to tell Grandpa and Second Grandpa, and you are not allowed to deliver news to the mountain. Master...forget it, let's just tell Master! Don't say anything to Master Second and Master Three!"

An Er and An San both have families and families, so don't join in the fun with him, lest the two mistresses worry about it!

Fu Li looked at his nose with his eyes, and his nose with his heart. He responded to what his master said, and he was extremely obedient.

Jiang Huai said sternly: "This time I am leading the troops to support the border. It is Rong Guogong who is flying the royal banner and has nothing to do with Qingcheng Mountain. The imperial court and the rivers and lakes have always been in harmony with each other. Don't be confused. Remember what I said." !”

Fu Li paused and looked up at Jiang Huai.

Jiang Huai put his hands behind his head and said as he walked: "My uncle's kung fu is not as good as mine. When he was young, he went to the border and won three battles. He made great achievements in the border. I may not be inferior to my uncle."

"Why do you want that military exploit? Don't you think it's a burden?" Fu Li's face was full of disapproval.

Jiang Huai smiled and said disapprovingly: "I don't mind it! I inherited the title of my adoptive mother, so I have to do something for my adoptive father and my eldest brother. My adoptive father is old and can't bear the wind, snow and cold at the border. Shuang, I will continue the military merits of Duke Rong’s palace for my adoptive father, this is my responsibility!”

"How do you convince Princess Liyang?"

Jiang Huai chuckled and said nothing more.

After leaving the palace gate, he rode his horse and went directly to the eldest princess's house.

Li Yang just returned to Beijing from Jiangling more than half a month ago, and she didn't see Jiang Huai for much time. Now that her adopted son came to greet him, she was extremely happy!
The gifts brought to Jianghuai from Jiangling were also brought out, and they were spread out in a pile.

Jiang Huai opened his mouth wide and kept moaning, holding everything in his arms like a baby and smiling so hard that he couldn't even see his teeth.

Li Yang looked at Jiang Huai with great satisfaction, grinning widely, and didn't pay much attention to the crow's feet sneaking out from the corners of his eyes.

Jiang Huai rested his head on Li Yang's shoulder, hugged her neck and sighed sincerely: "My adoptive mother is the best to Huai'er. Huai'er has decided that this time she will help her adoptive father and adoptive mother solve this big trouble no matter what!" "

Li Yang smiled, his eyes narrowed, and he slowly turned his head to look at his adopted son.

"Huh? Trouble? What trouble?"
