Quick Wear Host, She is Beautiful and Sweet

Chapter 789: Lord Hou is sick and disabled (49)

The performance of the court officials was not much better than him, they were all surprised.

Even the young prime minister breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he knew in advance that everything that happened today was planned by Xie Jinglan, but the reputation of the barbarian army is extremely strong today, and it is raging everywhere.

Especially that general, Kubito, who fought countless battles in these years without losing a single battle, and was named the "God of War" in the barbarian territory!

Although Xie Jinglan showed his sharpness when he was young, but for the past five years, he has been silent in Cheng Enhou's mansion as a useless person. Can such a him really beat Kubituo who is in the limelight?

The young prime minister also secretly doubted it.

Until today, when the good news came, Xie Jinglan directly defeated Kubituo's army! The whole country cheers! !

After many years of silence, he is still that amazing and talented general. All these years, his sword has been covered in dust, and once he leaves his body, he is still invincible!

The courtiers also had various doubts in their hearts, but Xie Jinglan could defeat the barbarian army, the people would not have to be displaced, and the capital would not fall, that would be good.

For a while, there was also a bit of joy.

Only the emperor and university scholar Su Liangqin felt his heart sink.

Su Liangqin's expression was a little stiff;

And the emperor?

As the lord of a country, he was looking forward to the victory of the Jin country, so even though everything went against what he had imagined, no matter how unhappy he was, he could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

He hated himself for giving Xie Jinglan 30,000 soldiers and horses, after all, it was still too much, and even more hated that Xie Jinglan had been pretending all this time!

Otherwise, how could he go all the way to the west battlefield smoothly with his weak body, and command a victory?

Even if he couldn't play in person, it would take a lot of energy to line up troops in the rear. With Xie Jinglan's appearance in front of him in the capital...

Totally impossible!

At this moment, the emperor's mentality was completely distorted. He never thought how unreasonable it was for him to give Xie Jinglan only 30,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the barbarians' tens of thousands of cavalry.

I hate the hunting ground even more, and even earlier, when Xie Jinglan came back with his last breath, why didn't he get rid of him!

"Good! Good! Good!!"

The emperor said three times in succession. Compared with being overjoyed, the voice was more like gnashing of hatred, but except for a few people, no one else noticed it.

He quickly decreed:

"Now that our army is victorious, the morale is so strong that Xie Jinglan takes advantage of the victory to pursue and take back the remaining seven cities that fell to the west!"

the seven cities,

Two were lost in the hands of the previous general, and the other five were lost in the hands of Xie Jinglan's father five years ago.

"Xie Qing must also want to take those cities back to wash away her husband's shame!"

There was silence in the hall.

Some smarter courtiers have figured out something.

They were not on the battlefield after all, Xie Jinglan was able to win once, maybe it was because the barbarian general Kubituo underestimated the enemy, which made his surprise attack successful.

With such an arrangement, both Xie Jinglan and the soldiers are extremely energy-consuming, and Xie Jinglan only has these soldiers and horses in his hands, which can't match the hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops at all.

The best way now is to rest in the camp and make arrangements slowly.

But the emperor directly ordered to take advantage of the victory and pursue it... Is it really possible? Can you really keep winning like this and take down all the cities?

That's tantamount to snatching meat from a tiger's mouth!

But when Kubituo realized it, the only way to meet Xie Jinglan was a dead end.

If he is lucky enough to survive, our army will be defeated, not only the emperor will condemn him, but he will also face the accusations of countless people.

In this way... the last remaining prestige of Cheng Enhou's mansion was completely gone.

However, the emperor not only issued an order directly, but also brought out the deeds of the old Cheng Enhou, Xie Jinglan's father, saying that he would wash away his humiliation.

Since ancient times, the state of Jin has paid attention to filial piety, and Xie Jinglan couldn't refuse this hat even if he wanted to!

The young prime minister is even more clear.

The emperor wanted to force Xie Jinglan to death!

— Didn’t you win a battle by luck? Then see if you can keep winning! Even if you only lose one game, what awaits you is forever.

not to mention……

Xie Jinglan, can your body really hold up?

This is completely a conspiracy.

Thinking of this, the young prime minister also felt chills.

Now that there is a large army of foreign enemies, what the emperor thinks is not how to defend against the enemy, but to solve his own serious problems. He is also the only general who can fight against the enemy.

As the emperor of a country, he is praying for others to win!

While stabilizing his dragon chair in this way, he also completely abandoned the comfort of the people's life and death!

Such a ruler...

The young prime minister lowered his hands, and a dark look flashed across his eyes, which strengthened a certain idea in his heart.

-

The many disputes between courts and courts are unknown to the common people.

"Great victory, great victory!"

"what? What?"

"Young Lord led 30,000 troops to defeat the 200,000 troops of the barbarian general Kubito!"

In fact, Xie Jinglan's army is about 60,000 to 70,000, while the barbarians don't have 200,000, only about 160,000.

These are not what the common people care about.

"Ah? This young master won the battle within a short time? Or is it possible to win more with less? The young master is really amazing!!"

"You all suspected before... If you want me to say, such a stunningly talented and brilliant person is always the existence that crushes everyone! What kind of barbarian war god Kubituo, he was beaten to death by our young master!"

"I heard that Kubiluo is thirty-three years old now, and our young master is just a little behind!"

"Young Master, you did a good job. Take down all the cities in the west, so you can avenge your father!"

"The ancestors of the Marquis of Cheng'en have guarded our Dajin territory for generations. It is impossible for the Marquis of Cheng'en to betray us and Dajin! They have always been great heroes who defend their home and country!!"

"Young Lord has been dormant for many days, just for such a day, let the barbarians relax their vigilance, and then kill them directly!"

The people in the capital were full of joy, and gradually different voices sounded.

"Little Marquis has such a demeanor at this age. I heard that his father Cheng Enhou was also a famous figure when he was young, and he is not inferior to his son."

"Then how did you lose in the first place? At that time, Marquis Chengen had four generals in the battle. Although the young master was outstanding, the two elder brothers were not inferior at all, and the old master was in command!"

"this……"

"Keep your voice down, I heard from my cousin's second aunt's nephew's wife's natal family that someone set up and framed the old Hou Ye at that time!"

"what?!!"

"It's not enough to kill people, but to pour dirty water on them, hey, hey, what a vicious person this is, God kills him!"

...

In the streets and alleys.

The past impressions about Chengenhou's Mansion are also changing day by day. Only one battle has washed away the stigma of Chengenhou's Mansion over the years.

Although there are people here to guide, it is more of the kind of protection that the Chengenhou Mansion has given to the people from generation to generation.

However, at this moment, the emperor does not know yet.

His eyes were all on the western territory, waiting day and night for news of Xie Jinglan's defeat or death.

-

Thousands of miles away, inside the tent.

Xie Jinglan, who was supposed to be exhausted with all his energy and blood, stood facing the candle, his face was still a little pale, but his eyes were bottomless.

No longer will anyone think that he is weak.

"Master Hou, we have caught several spies sneaking around. They should be sent by him. How should we deal with them?"
