Chapter 29 Serious Injury
Chapter 29 Serious Injury
Xiao Junye galloped over, wishing he could not see Xiao Wuchen immediately.
However, he swept his eyes around, only to find that there was no figure of Xiao Wuchen among the crowd.
Xiao Junye's face suddenly turned ugly.
But the beard on his face completely covered his ugly face, leaving only a pair of dark sharp eyes.
Ningyanghou was riding a horse for days, and he was not too young, so he was very tired.Now seeing King Zhao's expression again, he felt dizzy for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "King Zhao."
Xiao Junye was about to ask this person where Xiao Wuchen had gone, when he saw the curtain behind the carriage was lifted, revealing a figure.
"Uncle Emperor?" Xiao Wuchen slightly raised his voice and called out to Xiao Junye. Seeing Xiao Junye's big beard, he was about to smile with the corners of his lips raised, when he saw Xiao Junye hastily rode his horse and looked at him for a moment. At the same time, he started to block the car curtain back.
"It's cold outside, Wuchen don't come out, the emperor just go in." Thinking like this, Xiao Junye got off his horse immediately, brushed the dust off his body, and quickly decided not to care about the outside affairs, and directly lifted the curtain of the car , and Xiao Wuchen got into the carriage together.
Because Xiao Wuchen knew that he was not in good health, and also knew that the journey would be hard, just before he came, Tete had someone build this extremely large and comfortable carriage.Not only can a few people sit in the carriage, but it can also be packed so that Xiao Wuchen can lie in it to rest and so on.
As soon as Xiao Junye got into the carriage, he looked at the layout inside the carriage, knowing that Xiao Wuchen had not treated him badly, so he shifted his gaze to Xiao Wuchen's face again.
"You've lost weight again." Xiao Junye began to look at Xiao Wuchen seriously, and said after a while.
But in his heart, he couldn't help adding another sentence, he was really thinner, but he also became more beautiful.
In the past, Xiao Wuchen was still young, and his face and body didn't grow. Although he was pretty, he was still a little immature.
But now Xiao Wuchen...
The 17-year-old boy, with a face like a crown of jade, looks better than Pan An, and a pair of peach blossom eyes is very attractive.
Ordinary people can't help but look at it a few more times when they see it, let alone someone like Xiao Junye who has already hidden his thoughts in his heart.
But Xiao Wuchen only thought that Xiao Junye was still the uncle who took care of him since he was a child. Although he was only a few years older than him, he was an elder in identity, so he only touched his face and said with a smile: "Hurry up, you have to be thinner. Fortunately, now that I'm here with Uncle Huang, I think Uncle Huang won't lose me, and he will definitely make me fat again."
This was originally just a joke, but Xiao Junye nodded seriously after listening to it, and said, "Wu Chen is at ease. Uncle Huang will definitely make you fat."
Xiao Wuchen didn't care too much when he heard the words.In his previous life until his death, he had never been fat.When the body is at its best in this life, it's just that it's not so thin, and it's far from the word fat.
But since Uncle Huang said so, Xiao Wuchen didn't bother to explain, just saw that there was a stove in the carriage, so he asked Xiao Junye to take off his big clothes, and leaned over to warm up together.
The stove is extremely delicate, and the entire body of the stove is wrapped. Even if the carriage moves too much and the stove turns over, the charcoal inside will never fall.
Xiao Junye took a look that the stove was very safe, and there was no possibility of hurting Xiao Wuchen, so he opened his dark eyes and sat beside Xiao Wuchen with some awkwardness and excitement.
But just as he sat down, Xiao Wuchen suddenly turned his head and approached him.
Xiao Junye's breathing stopped suddenly.
Xiao Wuchen was extremely close to him at this moment, so close that he could even kiss Xiao Wuchen just by turning his head slightly.
Or Xiao Wuchen kissed him.
so close.
However, Xiao Wuchen didn't kiss him, but curiously stretched out his hand to pull the beard on his face, and seeing his brows wrinkled, he said with a smile: "I'm still the emperor's uncle, this beard is fake, it turns out it's all real Yes. It's just that the emperor's uncle has always been handsome, but now that he has grown these beards, he looks a few years older. If the daughters of Luoyang City know what the emperor's uncle looks like now, they will probably cry a lot. Then, one by one, I gave razors to Uncle Huang."
How could Xiao Junye care about what the daughters of Luoyang City think?
After listening to Xiao Wuchen's many words, he only remembered one sentence: "Wuchen really thinks that Uncle Huang is handsome?"
Xiao Wuchen: "..." Shouldn't the emperor be able to hear the meaning behind his words?What he wanted to talk about was clearly the daughter of Luoyang City.
"Of course." Although the uncle could not understand what he meant, Xiao Wuchen still nodded and said, "Although the uncle is older and has more beard, his appearance is still excellent, and he must be favored by many daughters .”
Xiao Junye didn't understand the meaning of Xiao Wuchen's words at all, he only felt that his Wuchen praised him for his good looks, which was a great happy event for him, naturally the corners of his lips turned up immediately.
It's a pity that the beard on his face was really an eyesore, Xiao Wuchen didn't see Xiao Junye's smile at all.
The two chatted a few more words, and Xiao Wuchen asked about the situation on the border.
Xiao Junye was aware of Xiao Wuchen's plan, so he told Xiao Wuchen about the situation on the frontier one by one, and finally said: "The Xiongnu Shanyu thinks too much about his big prince, so it must be a fraud if he wants to come to negotiate. It's just that the marshal has been guarding the border for many years, and now that he has won a rare victory against the Huns, he was so happy that he didn't think about other things. Therefore, what Wuchen hopes in his heart should be able to come true this time."
Xiao Junye said that it was naturally because the Xiongnu might suddenly repent when they were negotiating and send troops to Daxing to start a war again.He had noticed this before, he was hesitating to find evidence in his heart, and when he told the marshal, he received a letter from Xiao Wuchen, knowing that Xiao Wuchen's life in Luoyang City was not very easy, since he had such an opportunity , Xiao Wuchen wanted to seize the military merit, Xiao Junye received the letter, knowing what Xiao Wuchen was thinking, he naturally suppressed the matter, just waiting for Xiao Wuchen to come this time, and take the military merit into his arms.
After Xiao Wuchen heard this, he really said: "That's very good. It's just..." He thought for a while, and then said, "It's just that I have read a few military books before, and I have never actually used soldiers to fight. I want Uncle Huang to help me..."
"This is what it should be." Xiao Junye suddenly reached out his hand, placed it on Xiao Wuchen's slender and tender hand, and said, "No matter what Chen'er wants, Uncle Huang will help you. No matter what."
When Xiao Junye put his hand on Xiao Wuchen's, when he said these words, his whole body was stiff and nervous.He could even hear his own heartbeat.
When he left Luoyang City in the past, Xiao Wuchen was still in his filial piety, so he couldn't say anything at that time, so it's not convenient to say anything.But now, Xiao Wuchen has become a filial piety, he is getting older, and now he has traveled thousands of miles to see him while taking advantage of his military achievements, Xiao Junye couldn't help but want to show his heart.
He didn't ask for anything else, but at least, he needed to let Xiao Wuchen know his intentions.
However, Xiao Wuchen's thoughts were not on this at all. When he heard the words and thought of the things in Luoyang City, he smiled wryly and said, "Where did the emperor think? Your father treated me with such kindness and love... In the past, there was no Reserving the pity, although the current father Jun is afraid of me, he still treats me very well. At least, among the other children of father Jun, he treats me the best."
What's more, the previous Emperor Chengguang treated him well.Therefore, although Xiao Wuchen's current crown prince had a hard time doing it, he never thought of doing such treasonous things against Emperor Chengguang.
Xiao Junye didn't realize that Xiao Wuchen had misunderstood his words, and felt a sense of loss in his heart, so he had no choice but to hold back his thoughts and talk about other things for the time being.
After all, the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Xiao Wuchen was eager to know the situation on the border in order to deal with the war in the negotiations a few days later. Therefore, although Xiao Junye regretted it, he also followed Xiao Wuchen's wishes, not discussing personal matters, only talking about business matters .
It took Xiao Wuchen more than a month to set off from Luoyang City.
When Emperor Chengguang was staying in Luoyang City, Xiao Wuchen saw that Xiao Wuchen was getting better and better, and he was getting bigger and bigger. He remembered that he was only in his [-]s, and his sons and daughters died for the sake of winning the heir apparent. Fighting each other, even in the end, among his several sons, only the only eldest son was left.
At that time, Emperor Chengguang fell ill with a heartache, and thought that there would only be one left.His eldest son is a dragon and phoenix among the people, Xiao Xiao Susu, letting the eldest son continue to be the crown prince and inherit the throne is naturally the best thing for the Daxing Dynasty.Therefore, Emperor Chengguang was extremely strict with his eldest son at that time, wishing that he could give all his lifelong learning to his eldest son.
However, his strict requirements on the eldest son made the eldest son mistakenly think that he was dissatisfied with him. After being provoked by the villain, he led many courtiers to force the palace against his father, trying to make him To abdicate and become the supreme emperor with no power...
Emperor Chengguang's face became distorted when he thought of what happened back then.
The table on the couch was suddenly dropped to the ground by his hand.
The palace people hurriedly knelt down on the ground, all pleading guilty.
Emperor Chengguang was originally a Mingjun, so if he vented his anger, it would be fine. Seeing this, the palace servants started to pack their things, got off the couch, and started walking around.
Before he knew it, Emperor Chengguang walked from his bedroom to the Jiaofang Hall, which he hadn't visited for a long time.
Emperor Chengguang's first empress was a wife he married when he was not yet an emperor. She was a simple person. When she became an empress, she saw that the Jiaofang Palace was dilapidated at that time. It also saves a lot of things.
Emperor Chengguang had just become emperor at that time, and the throne was not very stable. After hearing the words, he only praised the Empress Yuan, and really let the Empress Yuan move to another palace. Until his death, he never lived in the pepper house where the empress really should live. temple.
After the Yuan Dynasty passed away, Emperor Chengguang himself took a fancy to the daughter of Wei Yanghou's mansion and Xiao Wuchen's mother, so he ordered people to renovate the Jiaofang Palace and welcome her into the palace.
Therefore, when Emperor Chengguang came to Jiaofang Palace, the only person he missed was his successor Shen.
Emperor Chengguang believed that he loved Shen's family very much, so after Shen's death, all the furnishings in the Jiaofang Hall have not changed, even the eyebrow pencil on the subsequent dressing table is still in the same place.
As Emperor Chengguang got older, he liked to recall the past more and more.When he arrived at the Jiaofang Palace, he turned around a bit, recalling all the things he had with the Shen family back then, and gradually remembered that Xiao Wuchen was also born in the Jiaofang Palace.And Xiao Wuchen was born at the right time - at that time he already had six princes, one died young, four died in the struggle of the five kings, and the only remaining prince was forced into the palace because of his behavior. Abolished by him and imprisoned.
This also means that Emperor Chengguang had no sons at that time.This was not a big deal at first, but since the deposed prince was imprisoned, in the next two or three years, there were many newcomers in the harem, but still no heir was born.
Since then, Shen Shi has never been pregnant since entering the palace. At that time, Emperor Chengguang visited Shen Shi most often, but Shen Shi still had no children.At that time, news came from Weiyanghou's mansion, saying that another daughter of Weiyanghou's mansion was rumored to be destined to have children, and judging by her appearance, she was also a good child.In addition, Wei Yanghou's mansion was interested, and the little Shen never showed any rejection in his heart, and then Shen brought him into the harem.
It's just that she never thought that before Xiao Shen came to the palace, she was found to be pregnant, and after going through untold hardships, she gave birth to Xiao Wuchen.
"Wuchen." Emperor Chengguang looked at the courtyard of Jiaofangdian, thinking of Xiao Wuchen's frail body when he was young.The children next to him were able to jump around in the yard, but Xiao Wuchen could only lie on the window, looking pitifully at the others playing in the yard.
At that time, not only the successors, but also Emperor Chengguang himself wished he could give everything so that Xiao Wuchen's body could get better.
Unfortunately, when Xiao Wuchen's body really got better, he passed away, and Emperor Chengguang...
Emperor Chengguang thought of his previous indifference to Xiao Wuchen, and then thought that Xiao Wuchen was already 17 years old, and he was at the age to marry a wife and have children, but because of his indifference and fear, he had to say that he wanted to wait until after the crown. To marry a wife, even though he is not in good health, he still travels thousands of miles to the border.Even Xiao Wuchen endured Ningyang Hou who was placed by Emperor Chengguang to guard against him.
"Zitong, is it my mistake?" Emperor Chengguang murmured, "Wuchen is the most filial, he is not a waste prince, maybe I shouldn't force him like this."
As soon as Emperor Chengguang finished speaking, he saw the servants beside him leading the maids from Concubine Shen's palace.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, our imperial concubine is happy!" the maid said happily, then paused, and then said, "The girl Luyi next to our imperial concubine was also found to be pregnant."
Emperor Chengguang suddenly thought of what the Taoist priest said, that he had one or two children who were "immortals from heaven".
He froze for a moment, then quickly walked away.
Concubine Shen was not surprised that she was pregnant, she was just annoyed and resentful that her close maid Lu Yi was pregnant.But she can't do anything, and she has to use Lu Yi's pregnancy to raise her status as a bargaining chip.
She originally thought that with the Taoist leader's words and her pregnancy with Lvyi, His Majesty would soon raise her status, even if she couldn't be raised to the queen's status all at once, at least... would let her To be an imperial concubine.
Unexpectedly, after the news that she and Lvyi were pregnant came out, Emperor Chengguang only asked people to reward her and Lvyi according to the rules, and gave Lvyi a small dressing place, and moved Lvyi out of the room. In her palace, and then gone.
When Emperor Chengguang was not handling political affairs, he was studying alchemy with Taoist priests in the Daoist Hall, and he never set foot in the headquarters of the harem.
Concubine Shen Gui almost gritted her silver teeth when she heard this.
Because the eighth princess was doted on by Xiao Wuchen for the past two years, her temper gradually grew. Seeing that Concubine Shen was so devastated, she couldn't help writing all these in a letter and sent it to Xiao Wuchen.
Luoyang City is far away from the border, when Xiao Wuchen received this letter, it was already more than half a month later.
At this time, the negotiation had already started and ended quickly, and Xiao Wuchen was on the battlefield.
Sure enough, the Xiongnu Shanyu's ambition was not to save his eldest prince, but during the negotiation, he suddenly launched an attack, and together with the neighboring Xianbei clan, he set fire to Daxing's granary, and called for war before the battle.
Fortunately, Xiao Wuchen had the memory of his previous life, and Xiao Junye was there to help him. The granary had just been set ablaze, but the soldiers found him and threw them into the fire, and caught all the sneak attackers. The loss was not big; Dare to fight together, it is obvious that they are well prepared.
Moreover, these two tribes are nomads, and it is now November. Since these two tribes dare to fight, it is obvious that they want to get a good fortune from them for winter supplies, so they are more aggressive than usual.
Whether it was the Marshal who stayed behind at the border, or the Marquis of Ningyang who came with Xiao Wuchen, at the beginning, they never wanted Xiao Wuchen to compete for military merit.
However, when the soldiers on the frontier were seriously injured and had to use the prince's personal soldiers, the two could only brazenly ask the prince for help.After all, although the reinforcements are already on their way, it may take three days to arrive. During these three days, they will definitely need the help of the prince.
I don't know that His Royal Highness is willing to help, but the only requirement is to let him go to the battlefield.
Ning Yanghou vetoed it on the spot, resolutely refusing to let the prince go to the battlefield.Even though military merits are hard to come by now, he still has to act cautiously, so as not to let the prince have the slightest chance of seizing military merits.
It's a pity that although Marquis Ningyang is resolute, King Zhao is also resolute.King Zhao insisted on letting Xiao Wuchen go to the battlefield.After discussing with King Zhao and Xiao Wuchen in private, the marshal finally allowed Xiao Wuchen to go to the battlefield.
And at this time, Xiao Junye took out all the troops and battle plans he had ambushed before, and these battle plans included Xiao Wuchen and the prince's personal soldiers early on.
Marquis Ning Yang was not proficient in military affairs, and could not see any way to do it, but the marshal quickly saw that Xiao Wuchen's position in these plans was not conspicuous, but in fact he was the easiest to get military merit. people.
Besides, the fact that the crown prince is willing to live and die with the soldiers on the frontier and participate in the war together is enough to motivate the soldiers on the border to run to the side of the prince.
War is imminent.
In Luoyang City, the border war broke out again, and when the news came that the prince would live and die with the border soldiers regardless of his weakness, the war had already started for more than half a month, and even if the people in Luoyang City wanted to stop it, it was too late.
How noble is the prince?What's more, this prince is not an ordinary prince, but a person who is already weak.This kind of prince is willing to live and die with the soldiers, and goes to the battlefield without hesitation... When the news came out, many courtiers who originally cared about the prince's health changed their minds and began to favor the prince, and the people felt that the prince was benevolent and kind. Resolute and responsible.
When Emperor Chengguang knew about it, he only felt that it was a coincidence.After all, when Xiao Wuchen left at that time, all the news from the border was good, the battle was settled, and there was no merit to claim, so Xiao Wuchen went to the border.
However, the Xiongnu and Xianbei have always been at odds. They have not fought for the grassland several times before, and this time the two clans have joined forces to deal with Daxing. Emperor Chengguang thought in his heart that the prince's battle this time may really be a coincidence.
After all, under such circumstances, no matter if any princes were changed, no matter whether their bodies were really weak or not, those people had no choice but to fight for the dignity of the royal family.
What's more, Xiao Wuchen is still the prince.
Emperor Chengguang thought so, so he also put the matter on hold, and then took up a pen and sent more people to help the border. After finishing writing, he was silent for a while, and finally took up a pen again, and canonized Concubine Shen as the imperial concubine.
Once a war breaks out on the border, it can range from several months to several years.
However, Xiao Wuchen knew in his heart that this war did not last long, and with him as the crown prince here, the reinforcements everywhere did not dare to delay the time, so this war only lasted from November in Chengguang's 33rd year. In March of the 34th year of Chengguang, the war ended with Daxing's victory.
And at this time, the military spirit and military achievements that Xiao Wuchen wanted to obtain were all in his hands.
But even so, Xiao Wuchen really couldn't be happy.
Xiao Junye was injured.
It was still on the battlefield, in order to protect him, the prince who went to seek military merits, he was injured.
When Xiao Wuchen ascended the throne in his previous life, Xiao Junye was already very powerful, able to stand alone for him and help him secure the throne.
Xiao Wuchen felt in his heart at that time that this uncle, who was only a few years older than him, was an omnipotent person in this world.
But no matter how omnipotent a person is, he will be injured if he meets someone like him who not only wants to grab military achievements but also be dragged down on the battlefield.
Xiao Wuchen knew that he didn't have much effort, and his health wasn't considered good.Therefore, although it is said to be on the battlefield, it is still mostly when going to the battlefield with the soldiers and then sitting in the rear.The best he can do is advance and retreat with the soldiers.
It's just that today is the last battle, Xiao Junye intends to let Xiao Wuchen's credit be confirmed, so that Xiao Wuchen's position in the hearts of the soldiers will be more stable, so he wants to send more people to protect Xiao Wuchen on the battlefield.
Xiao Wuchen also had this intention in his heart, so he really went to the front line, but in the end, Xiao Junye was dragged down, causing Xiao Junye to protect him, he was shot in the shoulder, and now he is being treated in the tent by Doctor Zhang and the military doctor together.
Xiao Wuchen anxiously walked back and forth outside the tent.
He couldn't even remember how long he had been walking back and forth, only to see Ah Yao, who was sent by him to take care of Xiao Junye, suddenly walked out with an ugly expression.
Xiao Wuchen clenched his fist and walked into the tent suddenly.
Inside the tent, Doctor Zhang and the military doctor saw him coming in, they all knelt down with ugly expressions.
Xiao Wuchen's lips trembled slightly.
He was about to ask a question when he heard Xiao Junye who was lying on the bed calling him suddenly.
"No dust."
Xiao Wuchen suddenly walked towards Xiao Junye, opened his mouth and said: "Uncle Emperor, I am here."
"No dust."
"Dust."
Xiao Junye didn't wake up, but kept his eyes closed, calling Xiao Wuchen's name from time to time.
When Xiao Wuchen found out about this, he was stunned for a while, and finally understood why the imperial doctor Zhang and the military doctor who were taking care of Xiao Junye in the tent knelt down to him without saying a word.
"No dust."
