There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 234
"Over there, I have already arranged everything, plus the Tang family is loyal and swears to serve the country to the death, this battle will never be lost!"

"I can only rest assured if I teach you in this rear area. Besides you, who else can be used in the court?"

King Ning went to the fief early, King Ping broke his leg, and has long since stopped asking about government affairs. The fifth younger brother was spoiled since he was a child, like a dude who knows nothing about government affairs.

Only Xia Houjing, on the surface, he traveled to the mountains and rivers, a gentleman with six arts of piano, chess, poetry and painting.

But Xia Houjue knew in his heart that he had some ambitions, and he never forgot the people of the world.

"Sixth brother, you are the only one who can handle this court affairs!"

"No!" Xia Houjing still refused.

"You don't have to go to the imperial conquest yourself, and my younger brother can go for you. Brother Huang, although my younger brother is not talented, he has studied a lot in recent years. Although he is not good at martial arts, he can still fight with his brother on a tie. If he can be trusted... "

"Sixth brother!"

"Brother Emperor!"

"If you are worried about this court situation, I can introduce someone to you. He must be much better than me."

"Who?" Xia Houjue narrowed his eyes.

"Second Brother Ping Wang!"

"Second brother was both civil and military back then, and I don't know how much more support than the mediocre eldest brother. Unfortunately, because of the persecution of the queen mother, the second brother broke his leg early, ending his glorious first half of his life. But after so many years, the second brother The ability is still outstanding!"

"Brother Huang is really worried, you can hand over the court to the second brother, and as for the front line, I will let my younger brother accompany you!"

The image of King Ping appeared in Xia Houjue's mind. Concubine Chen Gui had been highly valued in the past few years, and King Ping's status had been raised a little bit, but he had long been behind closed doors, regardless of the court situation, would he agree?

"If the emperor is at ease, I will leave this matter to me, and I promise to live up to the expectations of the emperor!"

"Forget it!" Xia Houjue thought for a while, then waved his hand.

Although their brothers were not born of the same mother, they all had to beg for their lives under the Queen Mother Qin.

It's just that his only worry is that King Ping has not asked about political affairs for many years, will he be familiar with the various procedures of the government?
……

Five days later, Xia Houjue went to the villa to bring Tang Wanning back, and prepare for the royal conquest by the way.

However... As soon as he settled down, Tang Wanning came to the imperial study room, and saw two people kneeling at the door of the imperial study room.

King Ping's face was slightly pale and determined, while King Jing's face was guilt-ridden, and his eyes were a little helpless.

"Get up, what's the matter?"

"Brother Huang..." King Jing was a little helpless, but he still told Xia Houjue honestly that he had failed his expectations, because Prince Ping also had ambitions hidden in his heart, and he also wanted to go to the front line.

King Ping's temper was even more stubborn than the emperor's, and he couldn't pull back nine cows when he made a decision. He was sure to comfort him, but he lectured him instead.

It's embarrassing that what he promised was not done, but he clearly remembered that the second brother was very talkative in the past!
"Your Majesty, I have not asked about government affairs for many years, so I am absolutely incapable of governing the country. However, I have been studying the art of war all these years. It is still feasible to be a military advisor on the battlefield. I hope the Emperor will help me!"

"Your Majesty, my ministers must go too. I am good at leading troops and fighting wars, but I am also incapable of managing the country!"

Like kicking a football, the two kicked that hot potato back and forth that was about to fall into their hands, but neither of them would pick it up.

They all know that the right to supervise the country is the crown prince's right, and whoever stays must be at the rank of prince prince, and if something happens to the emperor, he can directly ascend the throne.

Hehe, how is that possible?

King Ping never had this kind of thought. When he was supported, he just wanted to be a good king, assist the prince well, and make a contribution to this country.

After all, the crown prince is an orthodox descendant. He has the ability and means, so he will definitely be a wise king and seek the greatest benefits for the people of the world. He knew this clearly from the very beginning.

Xia Houjing didn't even think about it, to be the emperor?That's impossible, there's no reason, it's just not the idea.

Xia Houjue was helpless: "None of you can be regarded as a royal conquest, and it can't boost morale!"

"Second brother, sixth brother, I beg you, take good care of the people while I am away from Beijing!"

"No!" The two said in unison.

Xia Houjue: "..."

……

This situation was never expected by Xia Houjue, and he absolutely did not want to see it. Unfortunately, it just happened right in front of his eyes.

The three brothers discussed for a long time, but none of them wanted to stay, and they all said that they could do it, and they wanted to go to the battlefield.

One wants to be a military adviser, while the other has the intention of being a human shield and wants to die for him. Xia Houjue is caught in a dilemma that has never been seen since ancient times.

Xia Houjue hesitated for a long time, and after a long time of intense discussion, he finally bowed down.

"you……"

"You don't need to say more, brother, hurry up and make an order!"

"Brother Huang, you should still listen to the second brother. This idea is very good. I will be the striker and he will be the military adviser. We will definitely win this battle for Brother Huang!"

The two were talking, and there was still the intention to issue a military order, Xia Houjue was upset and stopped quickly.

"Go! Let me go, I want to be quiet!"

"Yes!"

Xia Houjing and King Heping looked at each other and left as quickly as possible.

Xia Houjue was stuck on the dragon chair, helpless, the throne was indeed a prison, and he had to listen to other people's every move?hehe!
……

In late July, 20 barbarian troops pressed the border and approached the city of Yongguan in the northwest.

Xia Houjing was named King of Pingbei, and went to the battlefield with [-] soldiers and [-] shi of grain.

On the day of leaving the city, Xia Houjue took all the civil and military officials to see him off at the gate of the city.

After all the soldiers swore to serve the country to the death and drank the oath wine, they took up their shiny long knives and spears, and marched out of the city in high spirits, heading for the northwest.

On the way, King Ping had bad legs and feet, so he could only ride in a carriage, but he chose the lightest carriage, and the marching speed was so fast that the carriage almost fell apart.

That day.

Tang Wanning stood beside Xia Houjue and watched the army leave with her own eyes on the tower. She couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. After returning that night, she fell ill.

I have been having a high fever, having nightmares, and talking nonsense.

Xia Houjue was very distressed, so he simply moved all the papers to Fengyang Palace, and accompanied her while criticizing the papers.

"Your Majesty, I always feel that things didn't go so smoothly this time, and they won't let you go!" When she woke up, Tang Wanning always burst into tears.

"No! They're just afraid of what happens!"

"But……"

"No but, we will definitely win!"

……

When Tang Wanning's heart was broken like a knife, Ansaiya was also having a hard time.

Before Xia Houjing left, she sent a group of men in black to put her under house arrest, and she was so angry that she jumped in the small post house.

"Xia Houjing, why don't you let me go? Why?"

"Xia Houjing, you bastard, I will never talk to you for the rest of my life!"
