Chapter 478 King Sheng requests permission to inspect Huainan
"Strange, since when did Dali have heavy cavalry?"
"The news from Qingyun Hou Mansion...the information is absolutely correct."
"What on earth is this Dali doing?"
Emperor Yu frowned and said calmly: "What do you think?"·
"Your Majesty!" Ji Sui bowed his hands and said, "If Dali really launches troops against the Southern Barbarians, could this matter... be related to His Highness King Yong?"
"Um?"
Emperor Yu understood what he meant instantly, and there was a hint of realization in his eyes. Didn't the second brother get close to Dali some time ago?
Not long after this, Dali launched troops against the Southern Barbarians. Is it a coincidence?
Or, did Lao Er and Da Li secretly reach an agreement?
Emperor Yu suddenly felt a headache. This bastard never made anyone worry.
"His Majesty!"
Lin Qiushi also raised his hands and said: "What Ji Shangshu said is not unreasonable. If His Highness King Yong is secretly fueling the flames behind this, then his intentions are worthy of scrutiny."
"What does the Prime Minister Zuo mean?"
Emperor Yu looked at Lin Qiushi calmly, but his tone was full of unkindness.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty King Yong is now sitting in Huainan, and His Majesty has granted him the right to recruit troops to build a palace. King Yong has a group of proud soldiers, powerful generals, and strange people under his command."
"If you are bewitched by some people, you may do something outrageous."
"Therefore, your majesty is requested to send an imperial envoy to Huainan. Firstly, it is to inspect the south of the Yangtze River and sympathize with the people's sentiments. Secondly, it is also possible to investigate the mobilization of troops and horses in Dali and find out its intentions."
"During this period, His Highness Prince Yong must have been having a difficult time in Huainan, otherwise he wouldn't have sued Da Li."
"Your Majesty is sending someone over at this time to let His Highness King Yong know that you are caring about him!"
After hearing Lin Qiushi's words, Emperor Yu fell into deep thought with a serious look on his face. After a moment, he looked at Lin Qiushi: "In your opinion, who is the most suitable person to send to Huainan?"
"Your Majesty!" Lin Qiushi smiled on his face and said softly: "Why don't you let Mr. Shen do the work himself?"
"Mr. Shen has a close relationship with His Highness King Yong. He lived in seclusion in Jiangnan for many years in his early years. He is familiar with the customs and customs of Jiangnan and other places. If other officials go there, I am afraid..."
"With the temperament of His Highness King Yong, it is difficult for him to exercise the power of imperial envoy. I just wonder if Mr. Shen is willing to do it?"
As soon as Lin Qiushi finished speaking, Emperor Yu's eyes narrowed, and Shen Li strode forward: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go!"
"Mr. Shen, you are old and should not be tired of traveling and traveling!"
"Yes, Mr. Shen is old. This place is far from Huainan. He has to travel for several days and the fatigue of traveling and traveling may be too much for his body."
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I am willing to make a trip and return in one month."
"this……"
Emperor Yu was also in a dilemma. His original intention was to wait until spring and go to Huainan in person. But now, the old minister asked for help. Duke Shen was indeed old, and he couldn't bear it.
"His Majesty!"
Just when Emperor Yu was struggling, he saw a little Huangmen walking in with big steps and bowed respectfully: "His Royal Highness, King Sheng, please see me!"
"who?"
Ji Sui suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at the small yellow door in horror. Shen Li also trembled, with an incredible look in his eyes, and Lin Qiushi's expression was extremely complicated.
"King Sheng..."
Emperor Yu didn't expect that King Sheng would actually go out...
Watching a figure gradually appear in front of the hall, or to be precise, there should be two. King Sheng was sitting on a pure wooden wheelchair, being pushed by a young man, and walked into the center of the hall.
"His Royal Highness Sheng... Sheng!"
After seeing Ning Chen's face clearly, Shen Li and Ji Sui both looked inexplicably excited. They strode up to him and trembled when they saw that there was no movement in the legs.
"You...are still alive."
"what on earth is it?"
"His Majesty?"
Both of them looked puzzled and looked at Emperor Yu who was sitting at the top.
"My son, I would like to pay my respects to my father."
"No need to be polite."
Emperor Yu stood up, came to King Sheng, knelt down, gently kneaded Ning Chen's legs, patted them lightly, and asked with a hint of hope: "Do you feel it?"
Ning Chen smiled and shook his head: "Father, the imperial doctor has said that these legs are already necrotic and may need to be chopped off soon."
"Now it can be used as a decoration and hung on the body, which is already good."
"I just heard everyone talking about sending an imperial envoy to Huainan?"
"Um!"
Emperor Yu nodded and said without any concealment: "I have just received an urgent report from Marquis Qingyun in the southern border that Dali has sent 100,000 troops to the grassland."
"Some time ago, my second son went to Dali."
"I don't know what they are trying to do. Now that the DPRK and China are undergoing drastic reforms, it is not easy for war to break out on the border."
"So, Prime Minister Lin suggested sending an imperial envoy to inspect the south of the Yangtze River and also go to Huainan to do some hammering."
Ning Chen glanced at Lin Qiushi, nodded slightly and said, "Father, let me go!"
"you……"
"Father, my son, minister, and younger brother have not seen each other for a long time. I just want to take this opportunity to appreciate the beautiful scenery of my Dayu."
"Well, it's not impossible."
Emperor Yu thought seriously and said softly: "In that case, you will be the imperial envoy to Huainan."
"My son, I obey!"
…
On the grassland.
Ning Fan and Mu Qingcheng rode side by side, followed by the generals behind them. The army was divided into four groups and marched in different directions.
"Feng Xiao, it will take five days to get to Guanshan from here. Can your body handle it?"
"Yes!"
Guo Jia smiled, holding a chicken leg in his hand, and said with a smile: "When I was in Lingzhou, I asked Mr. Hua to take care of me. I drank Chinese medicine for three months and my body is much stronger than before."
"That's good."
Ning Fan was also relieved. He was going to bring Jia Xu out this time, but the operation of the Black Ice Platform and the Jinyiwei could not be separated from Jia Xu. Di Renjie and others had their own important matters, and only Guo Jia was a big idler.
In his previous life, Guo Jia was weak and indulged in alcohol and sex at a young age, and ended up dying young.
In this life, Ning Fan said that he would let Guo Jia live another thirty or fifty years.
"Where is General Huo?"
"My Lord, General Huo led 3,000 light cavalry out of the camp with General Ran and others early in the morning."
"Hmm?"
Ning Fan frowned and said softly: "He is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, how can he lead the army to charge into battle personally."
"My Lord!" Guo Jia explained with a smile on the side: "This morning, General Huo handed over the power of the army to Xu Chu."
"Don't forget, charging into battle is the job of the general!"
"Now that he is on the grassland, how can he sit still?"
"Haha!"
Guo Jia smiled, and there was a bit of expectation in his eyes.
