Riding the Pheonix Chapter 718: Battle report
Ji’s house.
Ji Xiaowu burst into tears while stuffing the cake into his mouth.
"Wow, the cake made by my mother is delicious, but I miss you so much!"
Mrs. Ji felt distressed: "A few pieces of steamed cake, do you need this? Eat slowly, you will have to eat later!"
Ji Xiaowu said: "No! I want to eat all I can!"
Mrs. Ji is angry and funny.
Ms. Dong hugged her son and said with a smile: "My uncle has suffered a lot on this trip. Look, he has lost so much weight. Tomorrow you go to Xuandu to pay homage to the master, take leave and come back to stay for a while. Have a good time. Make up for it.”
"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Ji said repeatedly, "You and Xiao Qi both make up for each other. Hey, where is Xiao Qi?"
"I said I was too sleepy and went back to sleep."
"Hey! This kid, after all, eat something before going to sleep!"
Ji Xiaowu took the time to say: "Mom, just leave her alone. She fell asleep along the way. I don't know why she is so sleepy."
"I'm too tired..." Mrs. Ji suddenly paused and asked him, "You said your cousin wants to sleep every day? How long has it been?"
Ji Xiaowu thought for a while: "How many months has it been?"
Madame Ji was horrified and asked again: "His Royal Highness, King Yue, has been with you all this time?"
"Yes! He was the one who brought us back!"
Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Dong looked at each other and saw fright in each other's eyes.
"Mom, let me go and take a look." Ms. Dong did what she thought of, handed her son to her mother-in-law, and hurried to see if Mingwei was awake.
……
Mingwei slept until nightfall and got up to have dinner.
Only then did I know what my aunt and cousin were thinking, and they dragged Duofu into interrogation for a long time.
She laughed and patiently explained to them: "It's nothing like that. It's just that I was injured during this trip, which made me mentally depressed. It was before winter that I started to feel sleepy. If that was the case, I wouldn't notice it now. ?"
The two women calculated the dates carefully and then breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Ji complained: "This Xiaowu can't speak clearly!"
Ms. Dong said: "Cousin, even if you are not, you should be married by now, right? This year has passed, and you are already twenty. No girl in the family has been delayed to this age."
Mrs. Ji echoed: "That's right, if you hadn't gotten engaged, others wouldn't know what to say."
Twenty years old, a real old girl. If she were single right now, those matchmakers would dare to come over and try to make a deal with any crooked person.
After all, in the eyes of the world, the most valuable thing about a woman is her youth, which loses value when she gets older.
As for what kind of person she is, who cares?
Ming smiled and said: "That's what I was about to say. It's just that I was kidnapped this time and accepted his order to suppress my wife. I don't know if the Holy One will allow it."
While he was talking, Duofu came to send a message: "Miss, Mr. Hou wants to see you."
Mingwei apologized and went to see Hou Liang first.
As soon as Hou Liang came in, he said: "Miss Ming, it's not good! Your Highness is in jail."
Mingwei frowned and said: "He ran away like this for a year and even went to the northwest. It is normal for the emperor to be angry. Now, do you think there is any hidden secret in it?"
Hou Liang was so anxious that sweat appeared on his forehead: "I thought so at first, but later I received the news and realized that something was wrong. Miss Ming, please go to Yubaozhai!"
Tell her to go to Yubaozhai, then the person who sent the message is either Fu Jin or Guo Xu, which cannot be ignored.
Mingwei immediately packed up and quietly walked out of the back door.
In the Imperial Treasure House, these two people are actually present.
Mingwei took off his cloak and asked, "Mr. Fu, Mr. Guo, why are you two free today?"
"Be free even if you don't have time." Guo Xu said, "His Royal Highness is in danger."
Ming Wei looked at his serious expression and couldn't help but wonder: "Is there something inside? Isn't the emperor trying to vent his anger?"
Guo Xu shook his head: "There is news that has not been announced yet."
"What?"
"The Chu army attacked at night, and there may be a battle."
Mingwei was shocked: "What's going on? Shouldn't Nanchu be in chaos now? Who will use the army?"
Fu Jin took a stack of paper and handed it to her: "This is the information about Chu State over the past year. Take a look."
Mingwei took it and looked through it one by one.
This information was organized according to date and clearly showed the changes in the situation in Chu State.
At the end of June, Tang Luo, the eldest son of the Duke of Dai, returned to Nan'an to accept his title.
In July, Tang Luo alleged that Tang Shao had brought thieves into the house and that he was inseparable from Tang Jing's death. To express his repentance, he should go and guard his father's tomb.
Then a series of attacks were intended to drive Tang Shao out of the Tang family.
Finally, Tang Shao couldn't bear it anymore and turned against him.
Tang Luo had military power in his hands, and the support of Mrs. Tang. He was also the legitimate Duke of Dai. Logically speaking, Tang Shao had no chance of winning.
However, no matter what Tang Shao did, the Emperor of Nanchu actually sided with him.
So a **** cleanup ended with Tang Luo's defeat.
When Tang Luo returned to the military camp, he wanted to compete with Tang Shao.
In the end, he fell into Tang Shao's trap and was completely defeated and lost his life.
As soon as this incident came out, the Tang family was in an uproar.
Tang Shao used iron and blood to clean up the Tang family and finally became the new head of the Tang family.
Mingwei couldn't believe it: "What's the secret in this? The Nanchu royal family got help from Xinggong, and the Tang family was at a time when it was weak. Why did Tang Luo compete with Tang Shao? Are they brothers or enemies? ?"
Fu Jin said slowly: "To outsiders, they may be brothers, but in their own eyes, they may be enemies. There is indeed a hidden secret, but our spies haven't been able to find out such a detailed inside story."
"And Tang Shao is also weird. ~IndoMTL.com~ He even resisted, but he joined forces with the Emperor of Nanchu? And he also killed Tang Luo and cleaned up the Tang family. His temper was not so cruel!"
Mingwei is puzzled. According to her observations during this period, Tang Shao had deep feelings for the Tang family, otherwise he would have taken action before Tang Luo came back.
"So, there is something hidden here." Fu Jin looked at her and said, "I don't know how close Miss Ming was to Tang Shao during that time, but now, you'd better treat him as a stranger. What he has done in the past six months is difficult to understand with common sense. I am afraid his personality has changed drastically."
Mingwei was silent for a long time and nodded.
"One more thing," she said, "There is no civil strife in Qi State, so why did Tang Shao start a war? His personality changed drastically. You should understand this."
Let's just say that now that the war is about to begin, Qi has a greater chance of winning. Isn't Tang Shao going to end up with someone on his deathbed?
Guo Xu spoke: "It is still unclear about this matter. The Chu army only attacked a guard post at night. But when the war breaks out, can't we just ignore it?"
"Then what does this have to do with His Highness being imprisoned?"
Guo Xu said: "His Royal Highness once made great contributions in the northwest. If there is a war, it will be an opportunity to fish in troubled waters. And Your Majesty..." He paused and said, "Maybe there is not much time left. He is going to die. Before that, all possible threats should be eliminated to ensure that King An ascends the throne smoothly."
