A brief exchange of pleasantries showed the worldliness of people.

It is easy to see from their deliberate dress, speech and behavior that Wuning King Liu Xinwu did not put on airs by relying on his old age, while Chen Huaian was also humble and polite, acting like a late-born descendant.

While chatting and laughing, the conversation between the two got down to business.

Liu Xinwu said: "My dear nephew, we have a secret report from Youzhou. The 200,000 Japanese soldiers led by Emperor Zhao Qian arrived in Youzhou yesterday and will rest in Youzhou for three days before setting off."

"How about it? The Longcheng Jingnan army under your command has only one day of rest for this long-distance attack. Can the morale and combat effectiveness of the army be guaranteed?"

Chen Huaian said: "Your Majesty——"

"Nephew, stop it!"

Before Chen Huaian could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Liu Xinwu. He said angrily: "My dear nephew, there is no bullshit prince here, only a rotten old man who is half buried in the earth!"

"Logically speaking, you are the eldest son of Prince Jin and should inherit the title of prince. I am just the prince of Changshan County. If you call me the prince again, shouldn't I pay you the courtesy of the court?"

"I'm sorry, from now on you and I will be treated as uncle and nephew, call me Uncle Shi!"

Hearing this, Chen Huaian smiled awkwardly, and in his heart, he was spitting out the fragrance to the black-robed old monk Dongfang Xiao.

I thought to myself that it was all because of the old monk's suggestion of a marriage that when he was talking to King Wu Ning, he always had the illusion that the new son-in-law was meeting his father-in-law.

However, this conversation must continue.

Chen Huaian cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Shi!"

Um!

Liu Xinwu nodded with satisfaction and motioned for Chen Huaian to continue.

Chen Huaian said: "Uncle Shi, those who are going to Wuzhou via Mobei this time are the elite of Longcheng Jingnan's army under my nephew's command. On the way north, the infantry is equipped with two horses, the light cavalry is equipped with three horses, and the heavy cavalry is equipped with four horses. ”

"Now, the horses are full of energy, the soldiers' morale is high, the generals are fearless in fighting, and the soldiers are not greedy for life——"

At this point, Chen Huaian changed the topic and said domineeringly: "It's as easy as flipping the palm of a hand to flog the second generation of foolish kings and intercept and kill the traitors in the court!"

Hahaha!

"good!"

"very good!"

"very good!"

Liu Xinwu laughed and shouted "hello" three times in a row, then stood up from the chair, walked around the study room, looked at Chen Huaian with an expression of approval and appreciation, and continued:

"A man is born between heaven and earth. He should be so heroic and domineering, and he should have the courage and courage to defeat thousands of people!"

"Xian Huai'an, when I meet you today, Uncle Shi is even more convinced that he did not make a mistake. How can the golden scales be an object in the pond? When the storm changes, the dragon will change -"

"You, Chen Huaian, are not the good-for-nothing prince in the eyes of those powerful generals in the Daxin Court!"

"Rather, those talents who have experienced the world have the ability to turn things around, the unpredictable plans of ghosts and gods, and the ambition of heaven and earth!"

At this point, Liu Xinwu's eyes were as bright as fire and he said in a firm and sincere tone: "My dear nephew, I will leave Prince Wuning's Mansion and the little Nu Shujun in your hands. Uncle Shi, don't worry, don't worry, hahaha!"

Chen Huaian: "..."

...

In Youzhou City, inside the temporary camp of Emperor Daxin II, Zhao Qian.

Sun Heling, the imperial groom, braved the biting cold wind and struggled to carry fodder into the stables. He shook his head and sighed as he looked at the emperor's camp, filled with the sounds of warblers and swallows, laughing and playing.

The newly established Emperor An completely treated the imperial commander's personal conquest as a child's play.

Since the expedition to the imperial city of the capital, they have not forgotten to have fun along the march. They have drafted girls everywhere to join the camp, playing and singing every night, and they are drunk and dreamy.

Local officials along the way, in order to flatter the emperor, carried out large-scale construction projects in their territories, deliberately creating the illusion of prosperity and peace for the people.

For example, Youzhou City under the rule of Flying General Li Jingyu is now a bustling scene with merchants gathering.

Sun Heling didn't even bother to expose it. It was clearly approaching winter. Where could there be so many merchants and tourists on the streets that had been deserted in previous years?

Under the brocade clothes and satin, there were clearly faces that had become insensitive, like puppets on strings.

Another example is the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal project built by Emperor Zhao Qian, which was intended to rival the Qin Emperor and Han Dynasty. As the cold winter was approaching, the project still never stopped for a moment.

Countless civilians and laborers were starved of food and worked day and night in the cold wind. Countless people died of serious illnesses.

And all of this is just a matter of local officials catering to the preferences of Emperor Zhao Qian, regardless of the life and death of the people in the world.

In this regard, Sun Heling, who had long been reduced to the imperial groom, could only pity in his heart over and over again: In prosperity, the people suffer; in death, the people suffer!

Several times, Sun Heling unconsciously compared Chen Huaian, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty, with the current emperor Zhao Qian.

Compared with Chen Huaian's benevolent attitude towards the people in the Jin Dynasty fiefdom and the city occupied by the Longcheng Jingnan army, Emperor Zhao Qian's personal expedition this time can be summed up in eight words - the tyrant conquers and the people suffer!

Various experiences during the expedition had begun to gradually shake Sun Heling's belief.

Many times, the emotional person in him was in his heart, silently cheering for Chen Huaian, hoping that the Longcheng Jingnan Army could defeat the imperial army to suppress the rebellion, and let the cruel reality deal a heavy blow to the dim tyrant.

Perhaps, only in this way can Emperor Zhao Qianban wake up and change his past, right?

at the same time.

In the temporary camp of Emperor Zhao Qian, a group of orioles and swallows selected from various places were still performing hard in the splendid and extravagant camp.

There are all kinds of music, playing, singing, music, chess, singing and dancing.

Emperor Zhao Qian had a look of enjoyment on his face, leaning in the arms of his beloved concubine Wen Renyu, enjoying the fine wine and indulgent sex.

Outside the camp, Shen Guangming, Minister of War, has been waiting here for a long time, but has not been summoned by the emperor.

At this time, Shen Guangming, who had urgent military information in hand, finally couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up from kneeling on one knee and made a gesture of rushing into the emperor's camp.

"Master Shen, what are you trying to do? Rebellion!"

A sharp voice sounded, and the popular eunuch Liu Zhen beside Emperor Zhao Qian raised his hand to stop Shen Guangming, the Minister of War, who wanted to break in.

"Eunuch Liu, there is an urgent military situation in the four towns of Anxi. There is no time to delay!"

Shen Guangming looked anxious and said with a cry in his voice: "Just let me go to see the emperor first!"

snort!

The great eunuch Liu Zhen snorted coldly and said with a look of disdain: "Master Shen, what is the urgent military situation? Is it important to have the emperor rest?"

"Forest Guards, escort me!"

"Anyone who disturbs the Holy One will be killed without mercy!"
