Dingbei City.
Wei Shuo, who was replaced by Xiao Dingwu, came to Wei Wenzhong's General Zhenbei's Mansion with the imperial edict given to him by Emperor Wen.
"Brother, do you think His Majesty knows about my private contact with the Crown Prince?"
Wei Shuo asked Wei Wenzhong anxiously.
He has been guarding Beilu Pass for more than five years!
Emperor Wen could have replaced him at any other time, but he chose to replace him at this time. It just doesn't seem right!
Wei Wenzhong glared at his brother angrily, "Why are you panicking now? What were you doing before?"
"I……"
Wei Shuo choked slightly and said in annoyance: "Wasn't I confused before? Big brother, please help me think of a solution!"
"Use your brain!" Wei Wenzhong slapped Wei Shuo on the head. "If His Majesty really knew, you would have been escorted back to the Imperial City by now! Would he still let you guard the Jing'an Guard?"
...
...
He couldn't even understand such a simple truth, and he didn't know how his younger brother became a general!
Wei Shuo was slightly stunned, then he slapped his head suddenly, and his worry turned into joy in an instant: "That's right! How come I can't even figure out such a simple question, and I've been scaring myself all the way!"
Are you scaring yourself?
Are you scared now?
Why wasn't he afraid when he was having an affair with the prince's people?
Wei Wenzhong looked at him unhappily, and sighed heavily, "Your Majesty replaced you with Xiao Dingwu. He must be on guard against us brothers. In addition, he should also be trying to appease Xiao Wanchou..."
"Appease Xiao Wanchou?"
Wei Shuo frowned slightly, "Why would His Majesty comfort Xiao Wanchou for no reason?"
Xiao Wanchou is in the imperial city, right under Emperor Wen’s nose!
What's there to comfort?
“Are you a pig?”
Wei Wenzhong's anger rose immediately, and he said unhappily: "It must be because Xiao Wanchou wanted to lead the expedition to Beihuan, but the emperor did not allow it, so he asked his son to replace you to guard Beilu Pass..."
This battle is to decide the fate of Beihuan in one fell swoop!
If successful, all the generals, big and small, who participated in this battle will definitely be rewarded!
In every family, who doesn’t want to gain credit?
If His Majesty does not allow Xiao Wanchou to come to Shuobei to lead the army, and does not give the Xiao family the opportunity to come to Shuobei to earn military merit, isn't that clearly an attempt to suppress the Xiao family?
“So that’s how it is!”
Wei Shuo suddenly realized, and frowned again, "Apart from Xiao Wanchou, who else can take charge of the court?"
Although Wei Shuo was not smart, he knew that when the army went to Beihuan in the spring, his elder brother would definitely not have the opportunity to lead the army.
To be in charge, one must have seniority!
Moreover, by the beginning of next spring, Shuobei will probably have to gather an army of more than 500,000!
The person in charge must be someone trusted by Emperor Wen and whose entire family remains in the imperial city!
Otherwise, if these hundreds of thousands of troops turned against him, Emperor Wen’s throne would be unstable!
Wei Wenzhong said in a deep voice: "Apart from Xiao Wanchou, I'm afraid there are only Xue Che and Zhao Ji."
Wei Shuo thought about it and nodded in agreement.
After a moment of silence, Wei Shuo asked in a low voice: "Brother, what about Yun Zheng..."
"Don't worry about that."
Wei Wenzhong shook his head slightly and said sternly: "Just guard the Jing'an Guard and our right wing! Remember, we know nothing! Whatever happens to Yun Zheng has nothing to do with us!"
Hearing Wei Wenzhong's words, Wei Shuo couldn't help but feel happy.
Since big brother said so, it means that arrangements must have been made!
The rest can be left to Bei Huan!
"I see!"
Wei Shuo nodded with a look of understanding, then frowned and asked, "Your Majesty is so wary of us, could it be that he has something against us?"
Wei Wenzhong didn't take it seriously. "Since ancient times, which emperor didn't guard against the generals at the border?"
"All right!"
Wei Shuo shook his head, smiled bitterly, and sighed softly.
Wei Wenzhong stopped discussing the matter with him and continued, "The Baishui River is about to freeze, and the Beihuan cavalry may cross the Baishui River and attack our flank at any time! The line from Jing'anwei to Tianhu is the focus of our defense. You must send people to strengthen patrols! In addition, we are only on defense and must not take the initiative to attack!"
"good!"
Wei Shuo nodded heavily.
…
As time goes by, Shuobei becomes colder and colder.
Under Yun Zheng's order, Yu Shizhong divided his cavalry into two teams, sending one team of cavalry to patrol the Baishui River every day and report the ice conditions of the Baishui River to Yun Zheng every day.
During this period, Yun Zheng was not idle either.
Not only did he have to take care of military affairs, but he also had to be trained by Miaoyin every day.
After a period of time, his martial arts improved a lot.
But, sadly, he still couldn't beat Shen Luoyan!
Look, he was enthusiastically challenging Shen Luoyan to a duel, but was again held against the neck by Shen Luoyan's cloud pattern spear.
"Your Hehuan skill is just this good!"
Shen Luoyan moved the tip of the gun away from Yun Zheng's neck and looked at Miaoyin provocatively.
Miaoyin smiled indifferently, "You have been practicing martial arts since you were young, how long has he been practicing? If he can defeat you after only practicing for such a short time, it only shows that your martial arts skills are not good enough!"
The Hehuan Skill is not a magical skill!
The Hehuan Gong can only be considered as an auxiliary.
This is just a shortcut, not a direct route to the destination!
If you stay on the road and refuse to go on, no matter how short the road is, you will never reach the destination.
If you want to become a master, you still have to practice on your own.
This is also the fundamental reason why Miaoyin urges Yun Zheng to practice martial arts all day long.
Shen Luoyan was not convinced and raised her eyebrows and said, “You have also been practicing martial arts since you were a child, let’s compete?”
"I won't compete with you."
Miaoyin raised the corner of her mouth and sighed, "I've been tossed around by him all day long. My body is almost falling apart. How can I fight with you?"
"you……"
Shen Luoyan blushed when she heard this, "You slutty fox, you have no shame!"
"We are sisters, why should we be ashamed?"
Miaoyin smiled sweetly and said, "Besides, when our prince and I were having sex, he always said that he wanted to take you with us. We can sleep together in the same bed. What is there to be ashamed of?"
Shen Luoyan's face changed and he looked at Yun Zheng with flaming eyes.
“Ahem…”
Yun Zheng coughed twice and said seriously: "We still have to have ideals, what if they come true?"
"You...you shameless bastard!"
Shen Luoyan cursed loudly and immediately punched Yun Zheng with her fist.
Yun Zheng is no longer the same person he was before, so he decisively chooses to escape.
Shen Luoyan was not willing to let him go and immediately chased Yun Zheng to beat him.
Looking at the two people chasing each other, Miaoyin couldn't help but burst into laughter like a silver bell.
Just when they were making a mess, Xin Sheng came to report that Yu Shizhong had arrived.
Yun Zheng immediately stopped playing around and hugged Shen Luoyan who rushed over, "Stop playing around, there's something important to do."
Shen Luoyan snorted, "I'll let you go first, and I'll settle the score with you later!"
"well!"
Yun Zheng readily agreed and then let Shen Luoyan go.
Chen Luoyan followed Yun Zheng and walked out.
He had just taken two steps when he suddenly grabbed a handful of snow and, taking advantage of Yun Zheng's unpreparedness, threw it directly behind his neck.
“Ah…”
Yun Zheng was howling from the cold and tried hard to jump the snowball off his body.
"Ha ha……"
Seeing Yun Zheng's embarrassed appearance, Shen Luoyan suddenly laughed heartlessly...
