MTL - Raising Wolves-v2 Chapter 93
Considering his own physical condition, Lu Qing did not insist, and took some people to take a boat from the ferry.
After landing on the shore, Lu Qing did not stop, and joined the rest on the road. After counting the number of people, he ran to the southwest day and night.
Along the way, in contrast to the urgent action, Lu Qing had a divided calm.
He clearly knew what he should do and what he was doing. He took the medicine prescribed by Xu Shu on time every day, and went to bed at the time to rest and sleep enough. It seemed that he was not affected in the slightest.
If Ning Juan was injured when the mudslide rolled down, and was staying in an unknown corner at the moment, then Ning Jing's arrival would likely bring great danger to Ning Juan.
If the worst happens, he must also help Ning Juan solve this messy situation.
Go with him again.
When Lu Qingze went to the southwest, Ningjing, the king of Jing who was closer, first set foot on the boundary of Shuzhong.
As early as the time of Emperor Chong'an, he sent private soldiers to a remote island for training, and he never approached them on weekdays. The people under him disguised themselves as ordinary merchants and went to the island to transport rice grains and weapons.
Have been holding back, waiting for today.
The close relatives beside him reported the situation: "My lord, the 'eyes' in Beijing received a secret report, and they should have passed the news to Mobei."
Ning Jing casually stroked the jade finger on his thumb: "What's the situation in Beijing right now?"
"The news came that everything was running normally in the DPRK and there was no chaos," said the vassal. "That male emperor still has some skills."
After Ning Juan left the capital, some disturbances in the capital came, and Ning Jing also remembered who the so-called "male queen" was, and said leisurely: "It's been a few days, the news of the little emperor's accident. When it spreads to Mobei, the military will be in chaos, Shi Xice is not Shi Rongfeng, and if he wants to turn the tide, he is still a little tender."
The genus scratched his head and was really puzzled. Thinking of the generosity of the lord in the past, he couldn't help but ask: "My lord, in case the Tatar-Wara coalition really breaks through the Mobei defense line and slaughtered the capital, then the prince's plan..."
All the benefits are taken by the Tartars?
Ning Jing didn't think it was contrary, and answered with a pleasant face: "What are you panicking about? Now that His Majesty is missing, this king came to the southwest to help out and kill the rebel minister Ning Sheng. Coincidentally, Mobei fell, and this king led the army to the north, expel the foreigners, and settled in the capital. Upholding the danger and turning the world around, isn't it a long-term achievement?"
Everything is in order, and no one will disagree.
The genus was stunned for a long time before he praised: "Your Highness is a good plan!"
In my heart, I couldn't help but murmured, that Tartar and Oara were savage and ferocious. The brave cavalry had to deal with even the defenders of Mobei carefully. How could you be so confident that you could expel them?
Naturally, Ning Jing could see the little Jiujiu in his heart that he didn't dare to say. If you fall, you will see a corpse."
Although the eyeliner in the camp reported that the little emperor was in the middle of the team, and the possibility of surviving was not high, he was still afraid of the little emperor, and he could not feel at ease unless he saw the corpse with his own eyes.
What if the little emperor was just alone and injured?
He came from the fief and tore off the low-key mask that had been disguised over the years. His ambitions were so clear that it was impossible for Ning Juan to let him go.
The genus replied in a low voice, "Your Highness, what if you find a living emperor?"
Ning Jing made a gesture with a smile on his face and said in a calm tone, "Then, give him a ride."
Daqi's army was stationed at the intersection of Shuzhong and Qianzhong, and it took Lu Qing more than ten days to lead troops from the capital to the southwest.
Before the person arrives, the letter arrives first.
When they were about to arrive at the garrison, someone from the army came to support him.
It's an old acquaintance, Xiao Jin.
The season is approaching autumn, and the southwest is under the chilly cold rain.
Seeing the approaching team, Xiao Jin, who led the people waiting by the road, hurried forward, turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Xiaguan has seen Lord Lu."
Xiao Jin knew that Lu Qingze was weak, and when he learned that he personally led the elite troops to help, he was terrified. Even though he knew Lu Qingze well, the moment he heard the news, a thought came to him: You are not here. Confused?
As he saluted, he took a peek at him, lest this Master Lu would have to fall for half a month as soon as he arrived in the southwest.
However, he saw that Lu Qing was wearing a rain-proof cloak and a bucket hat. Except for his pale face, he did not show a tired and sick face.
He rode on the horse, his thin waist was straight, he clenched his fist to his lips, coughed twice, and his eyes were lightly shrouded: "Jin Tongzhi, have you found your majesty?"
Xiao Jin recovered from his surprise and shook his head with an ugly face: "Commander Zheng ordered to block the news, only saying that His Majesty is injured and needs to rest. Before you sent the letter, Commander Zheng personally led the team out to search, and so far It's been more than ten days...no news yet."
Lu Qing clenched his fists and was silent for a moment, without continuing to ask: "How is the current situation in the camp?"
These days, Xiao Jin's heart is worried, a heart seems to fall into the running water, it fluctuates, and it can't reach the bottom.
He thought that Lu Qing would continue to ask questions about His Majesty's affairs, but he was stunned for a while before replying: "After Commander Zheng leaves, the two generals appointed by His Majesty will be in charge of the camp for the time being, but even if the blockade is blocked. After receiving the news, His Majesty has not shown up for a long time, rumors have begun to spread in the camp, and the soldiers below have a commotion.
"Well." Lu Qing turned to ask, "Where's King Jing?"
When King Jing was mentioned, Xiao Jin's face became even more ugly, and he said in a low voice, "Five days ago, King Jing led his army to the camp, and after arriving, he pretended to be the head coach and wanted to take over the power in the camp. Wan Dajun is stationed ten miles away."
No matter what Prince Jing said, he was also His Majesty's uncle, a member of the royal family.
Now that His Majesty is missing, even if everyone knew about King Jing's wolf ambitions, they had to be crushed by him.
Therefore, the two guards had to swallow their anger, try to maintain a balanced relationship, and dare not break it at will.
As expected, Lu Qing nodded: "Take me there."
Xiao Jin responded, got on his horse again, led the way, bypassed the roadblocks on the road, and arrived at the camp.
The camp where they were temporarily stationed was rather simple. The patrolling soldiers stood at almost every three steps. The lights were on in the main tent. Hearing the movement outside, Ning Jing and the two generals walked out together.
Seeing Lu Qingze, the two generals breathed a sigh of relief, but Ning Jing's face sank.
Didn't the little emperor's queen stay in the capital, why did he come here?
Why didn't he send a letter from his eyeliner in the capital?
Could it be that Fang Xinlu has...
Without waiting for Ning Jing to think too much, Lu Qing lightly turned over and dismounted, landed steadily, and took out a secret order: "All generals listen to the order and pass on His Majesty's secret order."
The two soldiers knelt down without thinking.
The surroundings suddenly knelt down with a rush.
Ning Jing was still in shock and doubt, so he had to kneel to answer and listen to Lu Qing's message.
The secret decree in Lu Qingze's hand has a very simple meaning.
As long as Ning Juan could not lead the military affairs for the time being, most of the power would be handed over to the Empress.
After listening to the decree, the rest of the people naturally accepted the decree without hesitation, but Ning Jing did not eat this set, and got up slowly, smiling without laughing: "I heard that when His Majesty left the capital, His Highness was in charge of the power in Beijing, and now Your Highness is not staying in the capital, why did you come to the southwest? This king is really curious, when did His Majesty leave this secret decree to His Highness?"
Lu Qing understood the implication.
Ning Jing was suspecting that he forged the secret decree.
Lu Qingze's attitude was still calm, and he turned the secret decree to let Ning Jing see the jade seal on it: "Everything is stable in Beijing, and Mobei is victorious. I came to the southwest at the request of Your Majesty, why not? However, His Royal Highness King Jing came here specially from the fief, so he is very loyal."
The jade seal on the secret decree is clear and unmistakable.
Ning Jing's eyes became darker and he had to speak again, but Lu Qing slowly took out another thing: "If it's even His Majesty's will, His Royal Highness King Jing doesn't believe it anymore. When you see this, do you believe it?"
Seeing the things in Lu Qingze's hands, the rest of the people let out a sigh of relief, and even Ning Jing choked on what he said, feeling a bit absurd and shocking in disbelief.
Tiger talisman!
Is Ning tired crazy? !
When I was out on the march, I didn't even take the Tiger Talisman with me, but left it to Lu Qingze!
The power in Beijing was handed over to Lu Qingze, and the tiger talisman was also left to Lu Qingze.
This is to take the two deadly knives, personally unsheathed them, and hand them to Lu Qingze, for fear that he will not rebel, right?
But if Lu Qing has a hint of ambition to sit on the throne, this country should change hands and change his surname!
Ning Jing had been here for five days, thinking about how to take over the rest of the army justifiably, how could he know that such a ridiculous thing would happen, and he stared at the tiger talisman, not knowing what to say.
Only then did he notice another thing.
Lu Qing brought thousands of elite soldiers, and there were soldiers from the Shenji Battalion following him.
The soldiers of these Shenji battalions have a new type of fire gun, and their combat power is greater than that of ordinary soldiers. Even a tiger can't stand a few shots of the fire gun!
Ning Juan even left this to Lu Qingze.
As soon as they met, they were shocked three times in a row, and Ning Jing was even a little numb.
He thought numbly, you might as well hand over the country of Daqi to this sick child.
Lu Qing put away the tiger talisman and smiled slightly: "Does His Royal Highness King Jing have any questions?"
Ning Jing stared at him gloomily for a long time, pressed the cold tone, and showed a slightly twisted smile again: "Of course not - Your Highness came in a hurry, do you want to visit Your Majesty first?"
After Ning Juan disappeared, Zheng Yao, in order to conceal the news, said that His Majesty was injured and needed to rest, so he set up a tent alone, and the Jinyi guards guarded him day and night. Except for a few confidants and Xu Shu, who was a doctor with the army, no one could enter.
Ning Jing knew very well that it was an empty account.
Zheng Yao is still taking people outside, looking for the little emperor's body everywhere.
It has been more than ten days, and Ning Juan has not been shown in front of people for a long time, and it is almost impossible to hide it.
Ning Jing originally planned to pierce the truth in two days and take the opportunity to take over the power, who knew that Lu Qingze would be killed in the sky.
He planned to test Lu Qingze's attitude towards Ning Juan's disappearance.
Contrary to Ning Jing's expectations, after he finished speaking, he stared at Lu Qingze's face, but there was no strange color on that face, and his tone was very flat: "It's so late, Your Majesty should go to bed, now that's past, only It will disturb Your Majesty, why don't we talk about military affairs first - what are you discussing just now?"
Ning Jing felt a little suspicious again.
Lu Qing came from the capital in a hurry, he must have heard the news of Ning Juan's disappearance.
In other words, the disappearance is just a nicer way of saying that, in the current situation, it may be difficult for Ning Juan to even find the body.
The attitude is so calm?
Ning Jing narrowed his eyes, and when he walked into the main tent, he thought about the relationship between Lu Qingze and Ning Juan.
It has been almost four years since the Emperor Shi was assassinated.
Ning Jing didn't believe those gods and ghosts, and speculated that Lu Qing either wanted to leave Ning Juan's side, or set up a bureau with Ning Juan to clean up the capital.
In any case, at present, the relationship between teachers and students is not so simple.
It seemed that the emperor Ning Juan was sticking upside down, but Lu Qing was very indifferent - it was unexpected.
Since Lu Qing has no ambition for power and seems to have no sincerity with Ning Juan, perhaps he was forced to stay by Ning Juan's side, it is not too difficult to turn against Lu Qingze.
Now Lu Qing has taken over the power in the camp, and there are thousands of elites around him. Ning Jing doesn't want to confront him.
What he wants is a logical, justifiable ascension to the throne.
After entering the main tent, Lu Qing took off his robe and hat, and took the first place.
The moment I got on the chair, the exhaustion from all the way, the pain caused by friction, and the drowsiness caused by the hardship, rushed into my body, and I fainted for a moment, and there was a buzzing in my ears.
The coldness of the cold rain made him almost want to curl up like that, take a breath, and let his body rest.
Lu Qing blinked his pantothenic eyes hard, adjusted his sitting posture calmly, suppressed the countless tiredness, his thin body was still straight, and he sat there quietly, as if he would never fall down.
This made Xiao Jin and the others, who were holding tight in their hearts, relieved.
Now that Lu Qing is here, it is impossible for Ning Jing to take over the power like before.
As long as Lu Qing didn't fall, Ning Jing could only deal with them patiently.
The only thing to worry about is to beware of Ning Jing and Ning Sheng cooperating with each other and besieging the Daqi garrison.
In the sudden natural disaster, the Daqi army was scattered, and in the middle of the team were the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, and there were many casualties.
However, Lu Qing came here. Among the 5,000 elites he brought, there were 500 Shenji Battalion soldiers equipped with powerful fire cannons. Ning Jing wanted to do it, but he had to consider it a little more.
The main discussion tonight was how to deal with the frequent night raids and harassment by the rebels and the rotation of soldiers.
After tossing for so long, and faintly hearing that His Majesty seemed to have some unexpected news, the soldiers were a little depressed.
Ning Jing took the opportunity to let the private soldiers of King Jing's mansion come to the camp and be responsible for patrolling and changing the guard.
How could the other two generals agree, just now they were arguing about this matter, and they had to worry about Ning Jing's identity and dared not speak too loudly.
Lu Qing rubbed his temples, understood the cause and effect, and said lightly, "His Royal Highness Prince Jing's military training is different from the training of the regular army of the three major battalions. I'm afraid it will be difficult to reconcile. The five thousand elites I brought are just right for this. Location, don't bother Your Highness."
Reasonable.
Ning Jing had long expected that the final result would be like this, so she could only keep quiet.
Lu Qing smiled and said: "Since the concerns of His Royal Highness King Jing have been discussed, it is better for His Highness King Jing to go back to rest early. It is quite cold at night here, so don't freeze your highness."
The two generals were strictly guarding them. Ning Jing had not been able to detect too many military aircraft so far. When he saw Lu Qing, he immediately chased people away. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to avoid suspicion.
After a while, Xiao Jin went out to investigate, and came back: "King Jing and his people are gone, I told the others to stay away from the main tent. If there is anything Master Lu wants to ask, feel free to ask. ."
Lu Qing nodded slightly, first asked how the current battle situation was, and how the situation on the rebel side was, briefly flipped through the various records in the camp, and then arranged a new one with the two generals. Patrol route, only put down the pen, the voice is gentle: "It's not early, everyone should take a break from time to time, and cultivate enough energy to fight the enemy."
No one could fault his attitude.
The two generals were tense for several days because of Ning Jing's arrival, and they panicked in their hearts. After hearing Lu Qing's words, their hearts became calm again. They surrendered and left the camp one after another.
Including Xiao Jin, everyone couldn't help but mutter in their hearts.
They used to think that Lu Qingze was so sick, and he was so distracted to take care of him, but they didn't expect that a person who looked so weak would be a little more stable than anyone else.
The tent was empty, leaving only Xiao Jin alone.
Lu Qing exhaled deeply, stood up, and his legs softened involuntarily.
Seeing that his thin body seemed to be shaking, Xiao Jin's heart tightened, for fear that he would fall like that, he wanted to step forward to help him: "Master Lu? How is your health? Doctor Xu went to the wounded barracks during the day. He hasn't come back yet, do you want me to have someone find him immediately?"
"No need."
Except for Ning Wan, Lu Qing didn't like being touched by anyone, so he waved his hand, held the table, closed his eyes, and took a moment to relax.
The candles in the tent were dimly lit, and his face was pale and bloodless. Cold sweat floated between his tightly knitted brows. A few strands of jet-black hair were stained on his cheeks.
Lord Lu looks so good-looking... No wonder His Majesty likes him so much.
The thought popped into Xiao Jin's mind, and he quickly retracted his gaze, not daring to look any further.
After slowing down, Lu Qing coughed again and said slowly, "Take me to His Majesty's tent."
Xiao Jin lowered his head in response and led the way.
In the past few days, Lu Qing has been on the road to blow his hair, but there is no part of Lu Qing's body that does not hurt.
The pain of being rubbed by the saddle between the legs, the pain of being shaken between the bones, and the pain of being stabbed in the brain.
He could only slow down his steps so as not to be seen by others, and it took him a cup of tea to walk a short distance.
Ning Juan's tent was pitch-dark, with no lights on. The guards around him were guarded closely, all of whom Zheng Yao trusted the most.
Seeing Xiao Jin and Lu Qingze, Jin Yiwei, who was patrolling, stepped aside, and let Lu Qing go in alone.
Before entering the tent, Lu Qing turned his head and said, "Wake me up tomorrow morning at 90 o'clock."
Xiao Jin bowed his head and said, "Go in and have a rest."
When he opened the curtain and walked in, Lu Qing was still imagining, if all this was just a trap for Ning Juan to lure Ning Sheng into sending troops.
He wanted to see Ning Juan sitting in the tent like he was in the palace last time, and when he saw him, he looked over with bright eyes, impatiently looking for a kiss.
But the expectations were still in vain.
The tent was cold, and there was no trace of popularity.
Ning Juan did not lie on the bed as he expected, waiting for him to come over, showing him a familiar smile.
Lu Qing stumbled under his feet and walked to the bed wearily, letting his heavy body fall on the bed. In the icy darkness, he could not restrain a bit of anger.
"Ning Jiwei." He rolled over, buried his head in the bedding, his voice was hoarse, and he threatened vaguely, "...you better not have an accident."
Since His Majesty the Emperor has spoken, how can he not do what he promised.
Lu Qing was really tired.
When he closed his sour eyelids and was about to fall asleep hazy, he turned his mind, almost frozen, and recalled the deployment map he had just seen in the tent, and the camp that Xiao Jin gave him. Booklet of all provisions, ordnance, personnel.
He was so tired in the camp before that his eyes dazzled, but he hurriedly flipped through it without thinking about it.
Now that I think about it, I realize it's not right.
Of the 5,000 people in the Shenji Camp, Ning Juan allocated him 500, and there were still more than 4,000 people left. In the booklet, there were only 1,000 people still in the camp, so why not even have firearms?
It has been raining continuously recently. According to the battle report below, it has been raining for half a month. Now the fire gun is not suitable for use in the rain. Who doesn’t feel bad for such a precious thing? When the army is out, it is natural to stay in the camp.
The more Lu Qing thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He opened his eyelids, and even swept away a lot of exhaustion. Huo Ran sat up and walked to the tent again, his eyes that were always quiet and clear were so bright that he didn't dare to look at him: "Xiao Jin, Bring me all the dispatch records in the general."
Xiao Jin originally stayed outside honestly, wondering if he should invite Xu Shu over.
When he saw Lu Qingze's face just now, he was really worried that he would not be able to hold on, so he was shocked when he bumped into Lu Qingze's eyes, and he didn't know how he suddenly swept away his exhaustion and had energy: "Yes, Please wait."
Lu Qing came with His Majesty's secret decree and tiger talisman. If he wanted to see these things, no one would stop him, and the things were quickly sent to the tent.
Lu Qing put on a robe, sat at the table with the lamp in hand, and read a book locally.
The subtle movements everywhere are basically consistent with his conjecture.
Ten days ago, Zheng Yao led his troops out secretly—not even secretly, everyone who knew it knew that he was going out to search for His Majesty the Emperor along the mountain.
But in fact, he brought out more than just a few people and more than a few things.
After hearing that Ning Juan disappeared more than ten days ago, Lu Qing showed a sincere smile for the first time.
As he expected, Ning Juan was on a nearby mountain at the moment, leading the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, patiently waiting for Ning Sheng to send troops.
However, Ning Jing's unpredictable action, leading troops to appear here, is a trouble.
After analyzing those subtle changes, Lu Qing suddenly felt relieved and heaved a long sigh of relief.
He covered his eyes, leaned back in the chair, swallowed with his snow-white Adam's apple, breathing shallowly, and almost fell asleep like that.
After a long while, Lu Qing sat up slowly and glanced at the messy books on the table.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Qing didn't hand the things back to Xiao Jin, and hid them in the tent properly, blew out the oil lamp, and sat quietly in the dark for a while before slowly turning back to the bed and lying down again.
He had to keep his spirits up, spend a few days with Ning Jing, cooperate with Ning Wan, and give him a suitable opportunity to do it.
After Ning Juan came back, he would settle the general ledger with Ning Juan.
Before falling asleep completely, Lu Qing thought coldly in his heart.
Ning Juan is not the only one who knows how to use shackles.
The author has something to say:
Ning Juan (frozen): ? shackles?
Lu Qingze: I'm afraid.
Ning Juan (excited): Teacher locks me! !
Lu Qingze: ?
