MTL - I Thought I Was Straight-Chapter 123 I got off the dragon bed and the minister panicked 14
No matter how much they resisted, they couldn't stop Yan Ge's army from marching forward. The once mighty Liu Chonglin was still defeated. He lost too fast. Just when he was preparing to cross Khmer and other countries with his last cronies and flee to Southeast Asia by boat, he did not know how the news leaked. The Khmer king was afraid of being blamed by the court, so he actually caught Liu Chonglin , tied him up and sent him to the imperial army.
When Yan Ge sat on the palanquin and was carried to Liu Chonglin, Liu Chonglin looked at Yan Ge with a very complicated look, and said bitterly: "Do you think you are very smart and powerful?"
Yang Ge raised his eyebrows, thinking that that's right?
Liu Chonglin suddenly smiled and said, "If you want me to say, you are the most stupid person in the world. Originally, you could be successful, at least more successful than me, but you personally sent yourself to a dead end...Ahahahaha...Yange I'm waiting for you below!"
Yan Ge twitched the corner of his mouth, there is always no shortage of such smart people in this world, let alone such unwilling people.
He waved someone to take Liu Chonglin down, then called the military division to his side, and told him that the army could prepare to leave.
The military advisor stood beside Yan Ge, he was no longer young after serving two generations of the Yan family, his white hair fluttered in the wind, the military advisor said: "General, I have something to say."
Yan Ge probably knew what he wanted to say, and he heard the military adviser say: "General, don't you want to go back to the northwest?"
Yan Ge hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Sigh." The military commander sighed, and said: "You are old and young, and you don't need to be taught what to do and what not to do. Let me ask you, do you know what you are doing?"
Yan Ge said: "I know, I've already thought about it."
He looked at the military division's tired face, looked at the busy soldiers around, and said, "I have a way to keep you from being implicated by me."
"Do you want to die?" The military division looked at him indifferently.
A military adviser is worthy of being a military adviser, and he knows what he wants to do as soon as he guesses.
Seeing that he didn't deny it, the military master was a little excited. He said with red eyes: "When I followed your father, you were not born yet. I still remember the day you were born. I knelt in front of your shaker with a group of old brothers and swore I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life. Since ancient times, military generals who hold great power have only had two paths to go, and we have tried our best to let you live and sit in the most honorable position."
Speaking of this, the military adviser seemed to be unable to continue. He seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, but he still looked at Yan Ge stubbornly and said, "I want to know, when did you change your mind? You would rather die than take a step?"
Yan Ge also knew that if he didn't give him a reasonable explanation today, he probably wouldn't let it go, and it didn't fit his future plans. After thinking about it, Yan Ge raised his eyes to look at the military adviser, and said sincerely: "To be honest, I only changed my mind after I came to the capital."
"Oh?" The military adviser asked, "What is it for?"
"For love." Yan Ge said with lingering eyes, as if a peerless love: "Since I first saw His Majesty, I have fallen in love with him deeply."
The military division took a step back in shock, unable to believe his ears.
"But I know that there can be no result between me and him." At this point, Yan Ge closed his eyes, two lines of tears rolled down his cheeks, and he said: "But it is absolutely impossible for me to hurt him. And you are my closest people. If there is any way to make His Majesty and you both safe and happy, I will definitely do it without hesitation. "
The military adviser said bitterly: "So before you came to the southwest, you were ready to die?"
Yan Ge was almost moved by himself, he nodded sharply, "Yeah."
He had carefully considered this remark, because after he left, the military advisers and the old troops would not resent Li Xiu, and they could live in peace with Li Xiu and live a good life.
The military division never expected this answer, but after thinking about it, there is really no more reasonable explanation than this. It's just that I can't accept the thought that the child I watched growing up is going to die. But he also knew Yang Ge well, and knew that no one could change the decision he made.
Just in the military division's painful reluctance, the army triumphantly returned.
On the day of the triumphant return of the army, Li Xiu personally led all the ministers to meet him outside the city, but was forced to die by the ministers in the end, so he only retreated to the next best thing. Instead of being greeted outside the capital, we were greeted outside the palace instead.
Yang Ge pretended to be dead in the carriage, the army stopped outside the city, and then his personal guards led the prisoners and surrounded Yang Ge's carriage slowly into the city. Along the way, officials from the Ministry of Rituals greeted him, and both sides of the road were crowded with common people.
No matter how suspicious the courtiers were of Yan Ge, the common people were much simpler. In their view, those who could help the country win wars were good officials and heroes.
The common people brought out delicious food and put them on the side of the road for the returning heroes to enjoy. Along the way, they looked at the team slowly passing by with warm and reverent eyes, and cheers resounded through the sky.
Li Xiu was wearing a court dress, sitting upright and looking forward eagerly.
Finally, Yuanwailang from the etiquette department trotted over and said, "Here we come!"
Then Li Xiu and the civil and military officials behind him saw a chilling team slowly approaching. This team finally walked in front of Li Xiu, and then collectively knelt down on one knee. The military adviser was at the forefront and said: "Yan Ge, the governor of Southwest China who conquered the southwestern rebel army, has lived up to the emperor's grace and has captured the rebel Liu Chonglin alive and offered it to His Majesty. Long live your Majesty!"
Everyone present shouted: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
"Okay." How could Li Xiu not be excited by this situation, and the Minister of War behind him said, "Why is it you? Why didn't Yan Ge come out in person?"
"That's right." Li Xiu said eagerly, "Where's the general?"
At this time, everyone realized that the victorious team had a dignified atmosphere, and there was no joy of victory at all. There were tears in the military adviser's old eyes, and he said: "Your Majesty atones, the general's injury has worsened, and he cannot salute His Majesty anymore."
Everyone was shocked when they heard the news. Although they knew that Yan Ge was injured, no one thought that Yan Ge would be injured so badly.
Li Xiu's hands and feet were cold on the spot, and the joy of winning the battle was swept away. He looked at the carriage behind with fear. Then he waved the support of the eunuchs and ministers, walked to the carriage step by step, then stretched out his trembling hands to lift the curtain, and saw a person in the carriage quietly wrapped in a thick quilt, the smell of blood and herbs was overwhelming come.
Li Xiu lost her balance and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he was supported by the people around him with sharp eyesight and quick hands. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for the majestic king of a country to throw a shit/shit in front of the people.
"Tell... pass on the imperial physician." Li Xiudao: "Let all the imperial physicians go to the general's mansion... no, no, send the general to the palace, I want you to do your best to heal the general!"
"No, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, this is against the rules!"
"How can this be..."
Hundreds of officials objected one after another, but Li Xiu never wavered. The military adviser who watched coldly in the noisy crowd finally felt a little relieved. General, your sacrifice is not without some rewards. At least this little emperor is not as ruthless as I thought.
Even though the ministers objected, Li Xiu still tried her best to get Yan Ge into the palace. Seeing that the man had already entered the palace, the ministers said to themselves that the emperor didn't have a concubine anyway, so let him go, Yan Ge had better go in alive and come out dead.
After Yan Ge was sent to the bed in Xinuange, Li Xiu saw Yan Ge's face clearly. He closed his eyes and his face was as pale as paper. He had never seen Yan Ge so vulnerable.
The imperial physician in the palace had long been bought by Yan Ge's subordinates who quietly returned to Beijing in advance. They surrounded the bed, and then tremblingly said: "Return to Your Majesty, the general is exhausted because of his unhealed illness and the long journey. Later, he was seriously injured, he was probably... afraid..."
Li Xiu's heart sank, and she said, "Speak! Explain clearly to me."
The imperial physician knelt on the ground and said, "General, I'm afraid that the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry."
Even though he was already prepared, Li Xiu's brain buzzed when he was hit by the news. If he knew today, why did he personally send Yan Ge away? He would rather that Yan Ge would stay in the capital forever and do nothing, and he did not want to see him die soon at such an age.
"Is there any cure?" Li Xiu said.
All the imperial physicians knelt on the ground, "Your servant is incompetent!"
Li Xiu felt a fire burning in his heart, and he really wanted to get angry, for example, if Yan Ge died, you would be buried with him and so on. But he didn't have the strength to say it anymore. After nineteen years in this world, is the only heartbeat going to end like this hastily?
"No matter what, we must try our best to treat it." Li Xiudao: "Go down and prescribe medicine."
The imperial physicians and court ladies and eunuchs all retreated, and the nightmare came true, Li Xiu could barely hold on. He sat by the bed, looking at Yang Ge's face almost greedily.
At this time, Yan Ge woke up, opened his eyes and looked at Li Xiu blankly, "Your Majesty?"
Li Xiu held back her tears and said softly, "Ziyuan, are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Are you hungry?"
Yang Ge found that this was not the General's Mansion at all, he asked strangely, "Where is this?"
"This is in the palace. I let you live in Xinuan Pavilion to recuperate." Li Xiu comforted, "Don't worry, no one will make irresponsible remarks."
Yan Ge said in his heart, do you think I will believe it? Li Xiu stood up and poured a glass of water herself, brought it to Yan Ge's mouth, and said, "Drink some water, come, I will feed you."
If Li Xiu told him that Da Lang should take medicine at this time, Yan Ge thought it was normal, but Li Xiu's appearance was really abnormal right now. Isn't he one of the people who most look forward to his own death?
Li Xiu fed Yang Ge water seriously and carefully, taking care of Yan Ge like a delicate flower. Yan Ge drank the water and said, "Your Majesty, I have not failed His Majesty's trust, and have wiped out the Southwest rebels."
After hearing this sentence, Li Xiu's face twitched violently, then quickly lowered his head, Yan Ge couldn't see his expression clearly. After a while, Li Xiu raised his head, but his eyes started to turn red at some point. He said to Yan Ge, "I know, I am very grateful to Ziyuan, Ziyuan...you must get better."
