With her dual plant and beast-mastery superpowers, Lu Wanyin is reborn back to her wedding night. Her husband is a general, strong and well-built. Unfortunately, the next day the new emperor orders...
Chapter 389 Heaven Wants to Destroy Dasheng
Hou Yuanji was stunned.
yes.
So what else is he worried about?
The time has come to make achievements.
Lu Wanyin pondered for a moment: "However, you can't go directly to ask for a fight, you have to go around it.
Otherwise, the Hou family's attitude would change too quickly, which would easily arouse suspicion."
Hou Yuanji was so happy that his mouth almost stretched to his ears: "Master, you say it, whatever you say, I will do it."
Seeing his smile that showed his lack of intelligence, Lu Wanyin thought for a long time and decided to explain it to him in more detail.
An hour passed by the time she finished discussing with Hou Yuanji.
Hou Yuanji then remembered.
His grandfather was still negotiating with Xie Jingci over there.
Think about the state of the two of them when he left. After so long, they kept arguing and quarreling, and they were about to fight.
Hou Yuanji was anxious: "My grandfather is not in danger of death, right?"
He definitely can't beat Xie Jingci.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Wanyin stood up calmly: "It won't break."
Hou Yuanji hurried back to the original yard, and before he even entered the door, he heard a burst of hearty laughter.
As soon as he walked in, he saw his grandfather, who had a scowl on his face when he left, grinning at him with the same unintelligent smile as him and laughing heartily: "Good boy, I knew you were a good boy. That little bastard of mine is nothing compared to you."
Hou Yuanji felt unwell.
It's a pity that he was worried all the way.
As soon as he arrived, he heard his grandfather praising Xie Jingci while belittling himself.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Didn't you just..."
"Shut up, adults are talking, you little kid have no right to interrupt"
Old Master Hou, who had been cheerful just now, suddenly frowned: "If you don't do your job, all my hard work will be in vain if you are as promising as General Xie."
Hou Yuanji was stunned.
No, what did he do?
I got scolded for nothing.
Lu Wanyin was not surprised at all.
Xie Jingci is also of the royal bloodline of Dasheng.
If he succeeded to the throne, at most he would appoint another wise ruler.
Dasheng is still the same Dasheng.
If there were no better candidate, based on what the emperor had done in the past six months, Mr. Hou himself would have wanted to overthrow him.
Old Master Hou looked at Xie Jingci and said, "Now the capital is ruled by you young people.
I am old now and cannot get involved in these matters. From now on, let this boy be the boss of the Hou family."
The meaning is very clear.
Hou Yuanji now listens to Lu Wanyin in everything he does.
Letting him make the decision is equivalent to letting Lu Wanyin make the decision.
Xie Jingci smiled and stood up: "I will definitely live up to your trust. Within a year, I will definitely return a peaceful and prosperous era to you."
"Okay, okay, I believe you."
The old man was so happy.
In just a few months, the wilderness has changed dramatically.
He believed that Xie Jingci could do this.
"Thank you for your trust, old man."
The two smiled at each other and reached a consensus.
"Then wait for the future. See you in the capital."
"See you later."
The old man looked at Lu Wanyin happily and said, "This is the wife the general married in the wilderness."
How could he not know that there are such powerful women in the wilderness?
It’s a pity for Lu Wanyin.
That poor child must have suffered a lot and died on the road to exile.
Lu Wanyin was stunned for a moment, then noticed Mr. Hou's admiring gaze and smiled: "Grandpa, this is the junior Lu Wanyin."
"What"
Mr. Hou’s smile froze on his face.
*
Xie Jingci was fighting a war there, so Lu Wanyin borrowed it and had to return it quickly.
The two sides reached a complete cooperation in a way that Hou Yuanji could not understand.
The next day, Da Sheng went to court.
The emperor was furious and scolded all the ministers again.
Unfortunately, several senior officials who have been at the forefront have been imprisoned or placed under house arrest.
He always feels powerless when he trains.
A light cough was heard beside me, which was very inappropriate.
When the emperor looked over, he was stunned.
When did this old man come?
Under the stunned gazes of the ministers, Old Master Hou lamented, "At the time when our Great Sheng is declining, there is no one to serve. This is truly heartbreaking, truly heartbreaking."
Even the word "decline and fall" was used.
One has to suspect that the old man came here on purpose to laugh at their jokes.
A sinister look flashed across the emperor's eyes. "Old Master Hou is truly devoted to the people. Since you are so heartbroken, let the Hou family lead the troops in this battle in the wilderness."
He has already fired me, why is he still so arrogant?
The old man seemed to be enraged. He dragged his weak body and angrily slapped the pillar beside him twice: "I will go. Although I am old, I am better than those good-for-nothings under your majesty's command!"
The old man feels relaxed and happy.
I finally said what I had been holding back for so long.
The emperor's face turned pale. "Okay, okay, my subordinates are all good-for-nothings. Since you have agreed to this, don't regret it."
Just when I was worried about having no one to vent my anger on, he came right to me.
The old man's face turned red, obviously he was angry.
He was about to continue speaking when Hou Yuanji, who had followed him, interrupted him: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Grandfather is also very anxious and angry. How can he really lead the troops to fight?"
“I regret it now.”
The emperor snorted coldly: "Since he can't go, then you, as his grandson, should go in his place."
Nothing good ever happens when you meet the Hou family.
Hou Yuanji wished he could kneel down before Lu Wanyin.
The master is really smart.
She actually got all of them right.
With just a few simple words, the emperor took the initiative to send them to lead the troops.
Hou Yuanji struggled to suppress the smile on his face, sighed, and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to go, it's really our situation, you know.
The house at home hasn't been built yet, so I really don't have time.
and……"
Hou Yuanji started to cry: "Our military pay is still the same as what was allocated last year.
It's not enough to travel all the way, let alone fight against the wilderness."
The emperor's heart moved.
Hou Yuanji's words reminded him of another thing.
Intelligence reports say there is plenty of food in the wilderness.
In such a comparison, the chances of winning are definitely slim.
There are still many people in the army who are loyal to Xie Jingci.
Just send them all out as cannon fodder.
After teaching Manhuang a lesson and most of those people and the Hou family are dead, he can let his own people come back with the remaining troops.
On the way back, they could also plunder some gold, silver and grain to enrich the national treasury.
The emperor became more and more excited as he thought about it, and his tone became more relaxed: "Don't worry, my dear minister. We will pass through many cities on the march. I allow you to collect this year's taxes in advance."
A burst of discussion was heard in the Golden Palace.
How could you say such a ridiculous thing?
Mr. Hou's hands were hidden in his sleeves and clenched tightly together.
With such a tyrant ruler, how could Da Sheng not perish?
Fortunately, there is Xie Jingci, and God bless our Dasheng.
Everyone could hear something wrong in these words, except Hou Yuanji, who looked completely unaware.
"Really? Thank you, Your Majesty."
