Chapter nine hundred and twenty eight: loneliness

This New Year was the most boring time for Qin Feng to live. Although there were many people in the huge palace, without Min Ruoxi and a pair of children, he suddenly became deserted. After taking Xiao Wen Xiaowu back to Yuejing City, the monk's wife Yu Xiu'e took Xiao Wen Xiaowu to the mansion to take care of him. Qin Feng was too busy and really had no energy to take care of these children. In the past, Min Ruoxi and Yinggu had always taken care of Xiao Wen Xiaowu personally and handed them over to the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace to take care of him, but Qin Feng was not willing and was not relieved.

In the past, when we celebrated the New Year, we either had to eat meat and drink with our brothers, or we could reunite with our family to enjoy a rare holiday. However, Qin Feng had to spend this New Year alone. Min Ruoxi was going back to Chu, but when the New Year bell rang, the Taiping she was riding was still drifting on the sea, and she didn't know how far she was from Quanzhou.

The relationship with Qi suddenly became tense. Qin Feng didn't want to see Chu being beaten so hard that he could not turn over. At Zhaoguan, Wuling had already begun to provoke, and Li Xiaoya's cavalry crossed the border many times, putting great pressure on Xian Bisong, forcing him to ask Chang'an for reinforcements one day with memorials. In Lingchuan County, the Pili Camp captured the city, Wu Teng immediately led tens of thousands of Xinning District to the northwest of Qi, conquering the city and plundering the land. The army rolled from the northwest to the hinterland of Qi. The Zhuifeng Camp led by Yu Chao protected Wu Teng's food route in the rear.

Qin Feng knew very well that he was dancing on a sharp knife. If it was not good, he would have the possibility of cutting himself. It was pursued by the Ming Dynasty. It would hurt Chu's vitality but also have a certain ability to fight against Qi. This degree is quite difficult to control.

Of course, this also depends on the determination of Qi to completely eliminate Min Ruoying's main force. If Qi withstands the pressure, the Ming Dynasty's plan would fall into space and make the already tense relationship between the two sides more dangerous.

Cooking oil with fire is nothing more than that.

As the Minister of War, Xiaomao was not in Yuejing City at this moment, but went to Zhaoguan. First, she inspected the troops there and controlled the harassment against Qi. Qin Feng was a little worried that Wu Ling would make a big deal. He didn't want to start a full war with the Qi people now. Second, it was a big deal to reward the meritorious soldiers with the land of Yiyang, Wuling and Taoyuan. This was a big deal, and Xiaomao also needed to supervise it. This was related to the morale and combat effectiveness of the army soldiers. It was absolutely sloppy.

The war ahead was tense, so it was naturally impossible for the monk to come back. The Ruijin Camp, which was originally planning to withdraw its troops, has now entered Yiyang and is ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

The only wild dog in Yuejing City has been particularly excited since Qin Feng agreed to his marriage with Xu Yu. He has not yet healed, so he enthusiastically devoted himself to work. The first thing in front of him is the reorganization of the City Gate Army. The City Gate Army is reorganized into the Yulin Army. It not only needs to ensure their loyalty, but also improve their combat effectiveness. It is not feasible to use the City Gate Army as a gilded place for wealthy and powerful people. If you want to stay, you can, but you have to show your true skills. Whether it is a poor family or a wealthy and powerful person, the Wild Dog is treated equally, and in his stubborn head, there is no room for sand.

So Qin Feng looked around during the Chinese New Year and had nowhere to go.

The monk is not at home, the kitten is not at home, and although the wild dog is at home, it is not appropriate for him to come to his house with his wife, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law. At least it will make people feel uneasy in their New Year.

So Qin Feng could only stay in the palace honestly. Although Zi Luo enthusiastically invited him to go to the heaven and earth to watch the large dance they had just re-arranged, Qin Feng also politely declined.

When my wife was not at home, she went to visit the heaven and earth. She was in the yellow mud-lossed trousers, either shit or shit. Besides, the censors in the Censorate are gradually becoming more and more like that. They are not the people in the Supervision Department, and they follow their orders. Many of these people have just graduated from the Beijing University or came out of the Ming Dynasty for the scientific examination. They have the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and serving the country. If they go to the heaven and earth, they will be afraid that there will be a memorial to persuade them the next day. Although they can't hurt themselves, Qin Feng can't stand the thugs of this face.

After the Sui Pass alone, Yu Xiu'e brought Xiao Wen Xiaowu and her own baby to the palace to pay New Year's greetings. After Qin Feng gave New Year's money as usual, Yu Xiu'e left the palace with three little guys like a gust of wind, claiming that she did not dare to delay His Majesty's life, but Qin Feng knew that this female Tyrannosaurus had taken the baby to the Wild Dog's house again.

Looking at the empty palace, Qin Feng could only sigh, sit alone behind the big desk, and start reading the memorial.

Although almost all the ministries and government offices are closed for rest during the New Year, this does not mean that there is nothing wrong. The information and memorials that should appear on Qin Feng’s desk will still appear in front of him normally.

This emperor was quite boring. While criticizing the memorials, Qin Feng lamented.

"Your Majesty, Commander Guo is asking for a meeting!" Eunuch Le was not there, and another old eunuch was waiting in front of him. This was recommended by Eunuch Le to Qin Feng when he accompanied Min Ruoxi. It was because of his honesty. Because he was old, he had no ideals and just wanted to take care of his old age in the palace quietly.

"Let him come in." Qin Feng, who was bored, couldn't help but feel happy. Finally, someone who could talk to him was here.

"Your Majesty." Walking into the study, Guo Jiuling bowed to Qin Feng.

"Old Guo is here, sit down quickly." Qin Feng happily pointed to the chair in front of his big case and said, "You must have entered the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Is it a good or a bad thing?"

Guo Jiuling smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this is really not a good or a bad thing? It's about Yu Anruhai and his Western Army."

"An Ruhai!" Qin Feng's mind looked like this. To be honest, he was not familiar with An Ruhai, and he had only met once. That was when he first arrived in Shangjing City, he was trapped by this guy and threw him into the heavenly prison. Since then, he has never met again. After the Shangjing Incident, he traveled thousands of miles away, and the former commander of the Inner Guard of Great Chu went to Anyang to rebuild the Western Army. In a few years, he created a huge momentum and stabilized the Western Front for Chu. "What is his plan now when he entered Qi State?"

"After the sutra, when An Ruhai was out of Luoying Mountains, there were more than 8,000 people. It was normal for him to make wind and rain in Qi territory, but through Chu domestic guards, he also made a request to help him. Without the permission of His Majesty, the leader of the Eagle Nest in Qi territory ordered all the Eagle Nest in Qi territory to help An Ruhai, collect information from the garrisons and stations for him, and even some helps them raise food, etc. "Guo Jiuling said: "So Your Majesty, I am here to apologize today. This guy is really too brave."

Qin Feng laughed loudly: "Commander Guo, you are not here to apologize for him, you are here to seek credit for him, right? What is this guy's name? It's very good. With such decisiveness and such action, he is a good seedling."

"His name is Ma Zhaoxu. He was originally a member of the city gate army. He was implicated because of the incident of Wu Jing escape from Tonggong that year. Later, he went to the Eagle Nest and gradually emerged. He was just appointed as the leader of the Eagle Nest in Qi." Guo Jiuling introduced.

"Tonggong Wujing incident!" Qin Feng smiled. It was originally a shocking conspiracy planned by Eagle Nest itself, but because many of his own people died in this matter, it has always become a secret. The core figure of that matter is now the largest spy buried outside the Ming Empire. He played an important role in the extermination of barbarians. Now he has occupied a good position in the Qi army, and the future is promising. People like Ma Zhaoxu are all people who are implicated by innocent people. The Eagle Nest finally brought him in is nothing more than a compensatory mentality. However, being able to rise like Ma Zhaoxu so quickly in a few years shows that this person is quite capable.

"This Ma Zhaoxu is not very good at leading troops, but he is like a fish and water when he does this. He is quite decisive. If he follows the normal procedures this time, he will probably even be cold." Guo Jiuling said: "The State of Qi has put a lot of effort into the domestic guards of Chu earlier, but it has made us cheaper."

"What is An Ruhai's plan? You should see it now, right?" Qin Feng asked.

The smile on Guo Jiuling's face disappeared. When he was in the inner guard, An Ruhai was the commander and he was the deputy commander. Although the two had little personal relationship, they had been working together for twenty years. "He was afraid he didn't want to live anymore. He burned, killed, looted, and never stopped in every place. Now his subordinates have all armed with the stolen mules and horses, and they have gone straight east."

"Let's go east?" Qin Feng said in amazement.

"Yes, Ma Zhaoxu has seen him once." Guo Jiuling said: "What An Ruhai is thinking is to fight to Chang'an City. Your Majesty, are you crazy?"

Qin Feng also fell silent, "He is not crazy, he is putting pressure on the whole country of Qi. As you say, I am afraid that no grass will grow wherever his army passes."

"It's almost the same. He plundered food, burned it all, drove out the crowd, burned the houses, and killed a lot of people. However, these were all the gentry and powerful Qi who were caught by him. Now his troops have all the strength and speed is faster. After hearing about his plan, Ma Zhaoxu was also actively preparing information along the way for An Ruhai." Guo Jiuling shook his head and said, "But now his situation is not optimistic. There are blockages in front and preparations in the back. Anyway, he is surrounded by enemies from all directions. Even though there are not many elite troops, most of them are county soldiers and county soldiers, this time they are also trying to catch him."
