Yiman cleared his throat and hid his smile, "Food and grass can last for a few days, but reinforcements cannot be delayed any longer."

Zhou Yu glanced at the continuous heavy rain outside, stood up, took the cloak from the side, and put it on Yiman.

Looking at Zhou Yu, Yiman quickly looked away and glanced at everyone in the study.

Yiman took out a map from under the desk and unfolded it on the desk. "Master Jin, I am not familiar with the military and the frontier. Please point it out to me and explain it to me."

"Yes"

The rainstorm stopped for the first time, and everyone who had been discussing the military situation all night finally took a breath.

After everyone left, Lu Bo, who was seeing Jin Xiao out, suddenly heard the sound of a galloping horse resounding through the quiet street.

"Princess, princess—"

Yiman and Zhou Yu walked to the backyard and heard the sound of horse hooves. They hurried forward to greet them, "What happened?"

Lu Bo's face turned pale, "Tan's army was seriously injured except for the ten-year-old General Tan, and the Tan's army was destroyed."

Yiman staggered back a step and was caught by Zhou Yu.

"The Tan family's army is 10,000+, 10,000+, it's only been a few days, how can the whole army be wiped out?"

Lu Bo shook his head like a rattle, "I don't know, I heard on the street just now that Minister Jin has already rushed to the palace. I heard that it was Mrs. Jin of the Jin family army who returned to Beijing to report the letter in person. The horse that just ran was Jin." Madam and her party.”

Yiman's throat moved slightly, and he quickly calmed down, "What about Luo City, who is defending it, or has it been lost?"

"The slave does not know."

Yiman squeezed Zhou Yu's hand tightly, and Zhou Yu's hand firmly grasped Yiman's cold hand.

"Relax, Mrs. Jin returned to Beijing to ask for help. It should be General Jin who went to Luocheng to rescue and caught up with the defenders."

Yiman looked at Zhou Yu with red eyes, "10,000+ soldiers."

Zhou Yu frowned, hugged Yiman from her side, and patted her back gently.

After taking a few deep breaths, he pulled Zhou Yu's arm and said, "I have to enter the palace. Madam Jin doesn't know what's going on in the capital. The people in the army are generous. If she gets angry, she will directly anger the emperor and the officials, which will not benefit the overall situation. "

Zhou Yu stopped hurried Yiman back and said, "I'm going back to my house to collect news. You're not in good health, so don't be impatient."

When they arrived at the palace gate, they saw a group of horses parked at the palace gate, being led by the guards towards Fengchu Garden.

Yiman walked quickly towards Hanyuan Hall, and before he reached the door, he heard hoarse and indignant words.

"How could your Majesty bear to have 16 loyal souls ruined like this?"

The emperor was about to get angry when he heard the little eunuch reporting outside shouting: "Princess Feiqing has arrived——"

"I see you, Your Majesty."

After taking a long look at Mrs. Jin, who was dusty and weathered, she stood in the hall with her head bowed.

"Stand aside."

The tense atmosphere in the palace was as if a volcano would erupt at the slightest spark.

The Tan family has been destroyed. Even if the emperor wants to use the Jin family for a while, he will not take action against Mrs. Jin. There is no guarantee that he will not kill the donkey. After the fall, he must save her.

Yiman bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that there was a war in Luocheng and I was anxious. I wonder what the current situation is on the border?"

The emperor's tone was impatient, "This is none of your business, stand down."

Mrs. Jin was wearing armor and looked suspiciously at the eldest princess who appeared in the court and stood at the head of the officials.

Yiman glanced at her, took a step back, and stood to one side.

"I am deeply saddened by the 10,000+ soldiers in Luocheng, but due to the sudden brutality, I can only order the army to avenge General Tan and his family."

Mrs. Jin was panting like an ox, obviously very dissatisfied with the emperor's prevarication.

Seeing that Mrs. Jin was about to open her mouth again, Yiman sighed in his heart, stood up and bowed again.

"Your Majesty, Tugui has gone too far to deceive others. I am willing to serve as a military supervisor and go to the border to supervise the war. I swear to avenge our Daling soldiers, and I will also attack Tugui."

"It's not allowed for the eldest princess." "How can it be allowed for the eldest princess's golden branches and jade leaves?"

There was an uproar in the palace, everyone was admonishing the princess not to go to the frontier.

"Princess Lian——"

Seeing Mrs. Jin speak again, Yiman lowered his head and sighed, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please allow me to express my feelings of serving the country."

After a long while, the emperor on the dragon throne finally spoke, "Princess, I understand, please stand aside."

At this point, Mrs. Jin also realized that the eldest princess was trying to stop her from speaking. She also saw that the emperor was trying to prevaricate, so she lowered her head and stopped talking.

Naturally, the emperor would not let her leave the capital. With her current reputation among the people and the staff of the Eastern Palace, she might have power that the emperor didn't know about.

What if the tiger returns to the mountain, what if she mobilizes troops to rebel. In the past, the emperor may have underestimated this daughter, but since she entered the palace with a sword, and with the political talent and life-threatening efforts she showed over time, the emperor gradually began to take her seriously.

And now foreign troubles are approaching the border. If internal troubles occur, Daling will be in danger.

After being interrupted continuously by the eldest princess, coupled with the admonitions given by the ministers just now, the atmosphere in the palace has relaxed a lot.

The emperor glanced at the eldest princess who lowered her eyes and said nothing, then looked at Mrs. Jin, "I understand what General Jin means. I will send the nearest Lancheng army to rescue Luocheng and garrison it with General Jin. Mrs. Jin is all the way After a tiring journey, let’s go to the post house to rest first.”

Seeing this official article, Mrs. Jin said nothing, rolled up her sleeves and left.

"Look, there are no rules, Your Majesty."

"What a rough guy."

"That's it."

The officials present criticized Mrs. Jin for not understanding the rules. The emperor on the dragon throne had a satisfied smile in his eyes.

After walking out of the palace, Lu Bo quickly helped Yiman onto the carriage.

"Princess, Mrs. Jin went directly to Guanyi, Minister Jin also went, and Lan Cairen also secretly left the palace."

Yiman shook his head slightly, "Everyone must be staring at Mrs. Jin now."

"Then let's go back home directly?"

"If I don't go back, I have to know what happened on the front line. 10,000+ people can't just disappear without a trace. Zhi Ge, take me to Guanyi from the dark. Lu Bo, take the carriage back to the house. .”

As soon as he entered Mrs. Jin's room in the post house, he saw Lan Cairen complaining indignantly to Mrs. Jin, while the male servant beside him couldn't help but sigh.

Mrs. Jin didn't seem surprised when she saw Yiman suddenly appearing outside the door. She was obviously someone who had seen big scenes.

"Princess."

Yiman looked solemn and asked, "Where is General Tan? Do you have enough medicine around you?"

Mrs. Jin's eyes suddenly turned red, "The eldest princess is the first person I asked about Xiao Tan after I entered the capital."

Seeing Yiman lowering his eyes and saying nothing, Mrs. Jin continued: "In Luocheng, my husband is watching and the medicine is still enough."

Yiman sighed, "I will lead someone to Luocheng to take care of Little General Tan."

Mrs. Jin glanced at Minister Jin and said, "Jin Xiaodu told me that I would like to express my gratitude to the eldest princess on behalf of the family hero."

Yiman quickly stepped forward to support Mrs. Jin, "It's still too late. I can't bear Mrs. Jin's kneeling."

Mrs. Jin shook her head, "If there is such a heart as the princess in the capital, it will be worth it."

Yiman sighed, "Today's Beijing is not suitable for straightforward people. What is Mrs. Jin going to do next?"

"Back at the border, I have clearly seen His Majesty's attitude. I am just worried about Shuya."

"Mom, I will go back to the border with you to kill the enemy."

"Nonsense, you are a concubine now, how can you get there?"

Seeing Lancai's mother and daughter holding hands tightly, Yiman continued to ask: "Tan's army is estimated to be at least 1 or 10,000. Even if the [-] trapped in Zu County are subtracted, there are still [-]+. Why are half of them so fast?" It was destroyed in less than a month?"
