Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 688: Let’s go

The next day, the army set off.
Emperor Yongjia has not been buried yet, and the city is full of veil. The soldiers on the expedition tied a white cloth to their left arm. When riding the horse forward, the white cloth fluttered in the wind, showing a strange tragic and solemnity.
Li Jing was on guard in the palace and was unable to see off the army in person.
The King of Xingyang took the lead. The fourth prince had not recovered from his injuries and was sitting in the carriage. The horse pulling the cart galloped with four hooves, and the speed was not slow at all. The carriage was bumpy back and forth, and the fourth prince was dazed and unwilling to endure it.
50,000 troops left the capital, rushing all the way. In one day, I ran more than 100 miles and nearly 200 miles. When it was dark, the soldiers had to dismount and set up camp.
There is no hot food to eat, two dry biscuits per person, and cold water.
The fourth prince had never suffered such hardships in his life. He ate a dry pancake and drank a half-pot of cold water, and he couldn't eat any more. Stuffed the remaining dry biscuits to the personal soldiers beside him.
"Fourth Highness," a tall shadow appeared in front of him: "It's hard to travel, can your Highness hold up?"
This is Lu Lin, King of Xingyang.
The fourth prince hurriedly stood up and greeted him: "I can hold on, and General Lu will be thinking of you."
Lu Lin's eyes swept across the haggard face and red eyes of the fourth prince, and he gave a heartfelt praise.
Several princes, dead dead dead dead, and one Li Hao locked up in a military camp, will not end well sooner or later. On the other hand, this fourth prince has a clear head and makes the most correct choice at the critical moment.
Lu Linwen said: "If Your Highness can't hold it up, tomorrow His Highness's carriage will be a little slower. I will lead the troops to go first, and it will be fine for His Highness to catch up a few days later."
Of course the fourth prince refused, and immediately said: "Don't take care of me like this, I can keep up."
The fourth prince has his own dignity and decency to take care of, so Lu Lin will not say more.
After Lu Lin left, the fourth prince lay down in the simple military tent. Through the gap in the tent, you can see the stars in the sky, and a half-bend moon.
The fourth prince watched silently for a while, then quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
On this side, solemn and cheeky slept in his father-in-law's tent, and asked in a low voice, "Father-in-law, this Fourth Prince looks at the fairness and delicacy, but he has a lot of backbone. I cried out bitterly."
Lu Lin hummed.
He solemnly muttered again: "With the Fourth Highness here, the people of the Zhao family should be honest and calm."
The fourth prince's biological mother, Concubine Qin, was raised in the Zhao family, and the fourth prince married the daughter of the Marquis of Puyang. It can be said that the relationship between the fourth prince and the Zhao family is very close. With the presence of the fourth prince, the Zhao family's army can be shaken.
Lu Lin hummed again.
Zheng Zhong was still waiting to speak, and then he heard his father-in-law say, "I will get up at the 5th tomorrow and go to bed earlier."
Seriously snorted, closed his eyes, and snored after a while.
Lu Lin: "..."
Lu Lin was angry and funny. This eldest son-in-law was solemn, charged forward in battle, and was very brave. In private, he is lively, his mouth is very smooth, and he does not have much scheming.
Seriously fell asleep, but Lu Lin was so full of thoughts that it was difficult for him to fall asleep for a long time.
He was full of thoughts about his daughter Lu Mingyu, who was in the East Palace recovering from a couch.
Li Jing's affection for Lu Mingyu is not fake. But once you sit on that dragon chair, no one can say what will happen in the future.
Emperor Yongjia is a lesson from the past.
Sit on the dragon chair, hold the imperial power in hand, and decide life with one word. With such power in hand, how easy is it to maintain the original intention?
He led troops to the land of Yanchu, and it was as short as half a year. If the war was not smooth, it was not unusual for him to spend a year or two. He is not in the capital, so Xiaoyu should not suffer any grievances.
Lu Lin couldn't help but sighed and turned over.
I slept for about three hours, and before dawn, the military whistle sounded in the tent.
The soldiers of the Xingyang Army are well-trained, but after a stick of incense sticks, they each got up and packed their tents. Zhao Jiajun's movements were much slower.
Zheng Zhong must have whispered a few complaints: "The Marquis of Puyang stayed in the barracks all day, and he didn't practice well. Look at the people from the Zhao family, who are in the barracks of our Xingyang army, and they have long been on the sticks. ."
Lu Lin glanced solemnly: "Don't say a few words, don't pass it into the ears of General Zhao Can, and cause the two armies to be at odds."
He proposed to borrow troops from the Zhao family's army, both to strengthen his own momentum and to weaken the Zhao family's army. Now that Zhao Jiajun's movements are a little slower, he can only bear it for a while, so as to avoid conflicts from the beginning.
Sternly shut up immediately.
The fourth prince was not so polite, and called General Zhao Can over with a sullen face: "The Yanchu rebellion, we are going to pacify the rebellion, and we must hurry as quickly as possible. Zhao Jiajun is so dawdling, it will only delay The hind legs of the Xingyang Army."
"You are not ashamed, I will blush for you."
"Since the action is too slow to catch up, tomorrow will be an hour earlier than the Xingyang Army. Whoever dares to delay, I can't forgive him!"
Zhao Cang will be scolded with shame and bow his head again and again to admit his mistake.
Zhao Can will be the uncle of the fourth prince concubine Zhao Yu, and he is the elder of the fourth prince in terms of kinship. However, at this time, the Fourth Prince was showing the majesty of an overseer, and General Zhao didn't even dare to let go of a fart.
The fourth prince had a handsome face, without the slightest smile: "Next time~IndoMTL.com~ I will only ask you first!"
General Zhao replied humbly: "The last commander will send the order and let them get up early tomorrow."
The next day, Zhao Jiajun was much faster. He got up a stick of incense earlier than the Xingyang Army, and moved quickly to pack up the tent and salute. and Xingyang Army set off almost at the same time.
Looking at it, Lu Lin nodded secretly. His affection for the Fourth Prince was a little more.
……
The army is on its way, no need to go into details.
In the palace, Emperor Yongjia's funeral is almost over.
Finally survived the forty-nine-day suspension. Next, the coffin of Emperor Yongjia was sent to the imperial mausoleum for burial. Li Jing, the crown prince, will personally help the coffin to go to the imperial mausoleum. Again and again, another four or five days.
The sixth prince was still a child crawling around, and he would carry him back to the mourning hall every day to show his face. There is no need for him to join in the fun for such things as funerals.
[To tell the truth, I have been using Mimi to read and update books recently, switching sources, and reading aloud tones, which can be used on both Android and Apple. ]
The fourth prince went on an expedition with the army, and only the third prince, Li Hao, was qualified to carry the coffin with the prince for the funeral.
However, Prince Li Jing never mentioned Li Hao.
The ministers were also very sensible, and they kept silent.
The Marquis of Puyang couldn't help but said, "Is it too deserted to send the emperor to the imperial tomb, only the Crown Prince alone? Why don't the Third Highness also support the coffin together!"
Li Jing glanced at Marquis Puyang and said lightly, "No need, I'll be enough to support the coffin alone."
Li Hao has been imprisoned in the military camp, and even Emperor Yongjia did not let Li Hao enter the palace. At this time, how could Li Jing allow Li Hao to show up?
The Marquis of Puyang hit a hard nail and immediately shut his mouth, giving himself a slap in his heart.
