Chapter 86: Sharing the Credit



Just as he thought of this, he heard the servant announce that the Prince Consort had arrived. The father and son hurried out to greet him. Zhao Xiaofei came to the main office and bowed and asked, "Mr. Hu! How is Haoge? Can he be saved?"

"No problem! He is fine now! He will probably wake up tomorrow!" Doctor Hu said happily.

"Yes! My father and I stabbed him together to save his life!" Hu Wen said.

"Great! I just came down from the city! I guess the Tartars won't launch a large-scale attack on the city! At most, they'll just pretend to attack! Brother Hu, you can write a memorial to report the victory!" Zhao Xiaofei said with a smile.

"I don't know how to write this memorial reporting the victory? Brother Zhao, please give me some advice!" said Hu Wen.

"It is written that under your command, Lord Hu, the military and civilians united as one to resist countless attacks from the Tartars. You led the troops and captured Hauge alive even though the enemy chief was injured. When the Tartars retreated, Lord Hu personally escorted Hauge to the capital to surrender the prisoner!" After Zhao Xiaofei finished speaking, County Magistrate Hu and Doctor Hu could not believe their ears.

Hu Wen stuttered, saying, "This, this, this is not good! What about you? You have done a great deed, can't you just give it all to me?"

"Brother Hu, I, a son-in-law, led so many people to capture Haoge alive. Do you think the emperor will be happy to hear it?" Zhao Xiaofei deliberately emphasized the word "son-in-law".

Hu Wen understood immediately. Zhao Xiaofei was afraid of his achievements becoming too great for the emperor, and secondly, he was afraid that leading troops himself would violate taboos. Imperial Physician Hu stroked his beard and nodded, but Hu Wen understood, yet still felt a little uncomfortable. That evening, while writing a memorial, he still mentioned that the prince consort should send troops to help defend the city.
