Fengqi crabapple

Chapter 73

By the way, there are a few handsome young men with outstanding appearance. You chased me to the martial arts field.Everyone stopped and felt a long-lost sense of joy spreading from every pore.

They walked into the first level of the equestrian arena and walked the horses while watching.

This time, some new obstacles have been replaced compared to the last time, and it seems to be more difficult.Xie Ruitang nodded and praised: "It is indeed a good place to kill people! The obstacles are enough to block the sight of others."

Xie Yuanfang remained calm, but his heart exploded: This Xie Ruitang came with bad intentions. Could it be that his father's plan was leaked?Or did Xie Ruitang sense something and try to trick me?

I heard Xie Ruitan say again: "It's a pity that the people who died in this level will be resurrected in the next level." He smiled at the corner of his mouth and glanced at Xie Yuantang: "Unless... the corpse is resurrected!"

At this point, Xie Yuanfang can basically confirm that Xie Ruitang already knows about their plan to kill the prince in a martial arts performance. It doesn't matter whether he guessed it or leaked it!
He originally did not support his father's plan.Although the prince is mediocre, he has no bad intentions towards their brothers and cousins.But his father was bewitched by King Xian and promised to help him replace the prince. In exchange, King Xian would kill Concubine Ji together with his father and eradicate Ji's gang...

However, to eradicate the Ji Party, does it have to be replaced by the crown prince?Of course Xie Yuanfang knew that it was the easiest way for his father, who had no power in the capital, to use King Xian to get rid of Concubine Ji.

Xie Yuanfang stopped and stood with his hands behind his back, but did not look at Xie Ruitang.

"What do you want me to do?"

"My cousin is indeed a smart man!" Xie Ruitang didn't beat around the bush, stopped and looked at Xie Yuanfang and said, "All I need is that my brothers and sisters are as safe as ever."

Xie Yuanzhu turned around and was about to get on his horse: "The track ahead has not changed significantly from last time. I will ensure that the martial arts performance goes smoothly, don't worry."

Xie Ruitang stepped forward quickly, took his reins, and said seriously: "I have one more question."

Xie Yuanhu looked at him doubtfully.

"You really go to see Haitang every day?"

Xie Yuanhu shook off his hand that was holding the reins and said calmly: "She's not yours yet, can't she?"

Xie Ruitang refused to let go: "You like her, does she agree?"

"Joke! I like her, it's my business, why do I need her to agree?" Xie Yuanzhen sneered, pulled back the reins, turned the horse's head, whipped it down, and the horse started to run quickly, heading towards the racecourse in a hurry.

Ling Feng and Ling Xue, who were following from a distance, saw the Crown Prince leaving angrily, and came forward to ask Prince Duan worriedly: "Your Majesty, have you not reached an agreement with the Crown Prince?"

"There's no need to talk about this matter!" Xie Ruitang also angrily mounted his horse and ran away.The two guards were left looking at each other in confusion.

The Beijing army's military exercise has not yet arrived, but the good news from the border has arrived.Recently, Tatars have frequently invaded the border, and the border troops have complained endlessly.This is the first good news the emperor has received recently: a great victory at Xuanfu Pass!Xuanfuguan used the self-created flying dragon artifact array to destroy nearly [-] of the main invading Tatars!
Master Fan, the minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, General Cheng defeated the Tatars, which greatly enhanced the power of our army! He also presented the flying dragon artifact formation for the use of the entire army. This is a great achievement, and I am willing to declare it for you." The generals of the prefecture and town ask for merit to boost the morale of the army!"

"Okay!" The emperor looked at the "Flying Dragon Artifact Formation Diagram" in his hand, and Long Yan was delighted: "What a good formation! Even I want to personally supervise the formation and experience the style of killing the enemy! Guo Kuan, pass on my will and make Cheng Yu the leader. From the second rank general, I was granted the title of Cheng Hanbai..."

"Report to the Emperor!" Shen An, the Minister of Civil Affairs, came out and interrupted the Emperor:
"Cheng's father and son are both brave and good at fighting. Now that they are stationed in the same town, it is a waste of talents. Moreover, the Cheng family is not prosperous and they only have an only son. It is better for the emperor to take advantage of the Cheng family's meritorious service and let Cheng Hanbai return to the capital to serve as a representative of the emperor. Showing sympathy to the generals will enrich the strength of the Beijing army." The emperor nodded.He himself has no heirs. Having only five sons is enough trouble. Cheng Yu is even more pitiful. He has only an only son and follows him to the front line every day!According to the military law of the Celestial Empire, both father and son were on the front line, so the only son should indeed be allowed to return to Beijing.It just so happened that Shen An, the Minister of Civil Affairs, mentioned to him yesterday that the commander of the Jingwei was transferred to the Southern Zhili Guard, and there happened to be a vacancy in the Jingwei.

So the emperor said: "Guo Kuan. In Xuanfu Pass, all the generals have made great contributions in killing the enemy. They are awarded on the spot: Xuanfu Cheng Yu is promoted to the second rank town general, Feng Mingze is the third rank deputy general. Cheng Hanbai is made the third rank Jingwei commander. Envoy, he will arrive in Beijing and take office within three days!"

"Feng Guangcai, Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army, obeys the order." The emperor finished verbally drafting the decree and then said.

"I'm here!" Feng Guangcai came out.

"I order you to lead the five armies to practice this flying dragon artifact formation. Cheng Hanbai, the commander of the Beijing Guards, will direct the formation. When the Beijing army exercises martial arts, I will personally supervise the formation!" the emperor said with high spirits.

Soon, Cheng Haitang, who was still temporarily living in Sun's mansion, learned about the promotions of his father and brother and Mingze, and that his brother was about to return to Beijing to take up a post.

"From now on, your two brothers will be in the capital. Not only can they help each other, but you will not be alone anymore!" Mrs. Sun was also happy for Haitang.The matter of Haitang being framed and poisoned by her aunt is not over yet. Even though Ruyi is dead, she still has to wait for Cheng Hanbai to come back before she can find an explanation.

Sun Yanxi's wedding is scheduled for the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month this year, with three months left.After Yan Xi returned to Beijing, he personally carried the betrothal gift and the makeup for the bride from her husband's family.He was still very satisfied with Gu Mansheng. The wedding was approaching and he felt refreshed during happy events.

Besides, Xuanfu Town received the imperial edict, and everyone in Guan Town was rejoicing. Although they could not drink freely, each person was only given three bowls of water and wine, but they still celebrated the whole day happily.

Cheng Yu was the happiest. He received a letter from King Duan a few days ago and learned that the house was uneasy, that his mother had been poisoned, and that he had framed the blame on his daughter. As a result, her daughter almost died in the epidemic area!Although the poisoned girl is dead and the mother's poison has been cured, she still feels uneasy.

Cheng Yu looked at his son who had grown up and was about to take charge of his own business and said:

"Bai'er, when you go back this time, read more and talk less. The power of the Beijing army is complicated, and it is controlled by many forces of internal ministers. You are young, so don't listen to one side or the other when things happen. It is easy to mislead others. Your Majesty. There are imperial guards in the city, nine gates, and five military camps outside the city. You, the guards, are like sandwich cakes, and you must behave with your tail between your legs.

I think King Duan is quite steady in his work. If you are unsure about something, you can ask him for advice.Mr. Sun, the censor of Zuodu, is your sister's adoptive father. Even if you are not close to him, others will regard our two families as the same party.Sun Yanxi also returned to Beijing and served as the Minister of Dali Temple. He has been studying with the prince since he was a child. He has a good character and was raised by his father."

"Father, let's talk about other people's children, your son is not bad either!" Cheng Hanbai said with a smile: "I will go to the Sun Mansion to bring my sister back when I get back!"

"You just went back, what did you do about the poisoning case?" his father asked him.

Cheng Hanbai didn't even think about it and immediately answered: "Check! Find out who is behind that girl and hand her over to the Yamen. Either imprison or kill her according to the law."

"This is where you are not as smart as Duan Wang." His father shook his head and said, "Duan Wang has already caught the poisoned girl, so there is nothing wrong with him if he reported it directly to the official. But he insisted on waiting for you to go back to deal with it. He went to great lengths to transfer you back to Beijing because he knew your aunt must be involved behind the scenes!"

Cheng Hanbai lowered his head and stopped talking.

"It is difficult for an upright official to resolve a family case. My aunt is both your aunt and your cousin. She will not really harm your grandmother. She just wants to use this incident to drive away your sister for the sake of your concubine. If you really investigate this case The saddest thing is your grandmother." Cheng Yu shook his head, looked at his son and said:
"So, since the poisoned girl is dead, there is no need to investigate this matter further. If your aunt is found, how will your concubine get married in the future? Not for your concubine, but also for your grandmother. Again. Bear with it for two years, and when you get married and get a wife, I'll be your wife's tutor and feed her well, that's all."

Han Bai knew that his father had made up his mind, so he took the trouble to explain this.He had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and not think about revenge.

Cheng Hanbai was determined to protect his sister first. No matter what, he could not let his sister be bullied by his aunt again under his nose!
