Broken wings

"I shouldn't have bothered you to make this trip, but Qian'er is still young, and he hasn't officially entered the barracks, and there is a familiar person by his side, and if something happens, there is someone to discuss. You should be sympathetic to me, the father, and the right to protect the calf. "

Gu Shi laughed softly: "What are you polite to me?" Okay, then I'll go." "

Yuan Zhen hugged his fist at Lone Shi and thanked him.

The group hurried to the frontier, along the way Ouyang Qian had been taking care of the imperial doctor, and after walking more than a hundred miles to an inn, they stopped and went in to drink saliva and rest for a while. Ouyang Qian saw that the faces of the older imperial doctors were tired, and he said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid that this road will take several months, the boat and car are tiring, and I am afraid that I will have to sleep in the open on the road, Ziyi is really ashamed." But the frontier warriors are our brothers and sisters, and they are protecting our territory with their lives. "

did not call himself 'this king', but humbly called 'Ziyi', which means that he gets along with everyone on an equal footing.

How dare the imperial doctor be such a courtesy to him, but he also knew that the prince's etiquette was thorough, so he hurriedly bowed down and said: "It's not hard, it's not hard, the son is not hard, how can we ......work hard."

walked for more than 300 miles in a row, but there was not even a tea shop on the road, everyone was tired from the journey, Ouyang Qian let everyone rest in place, went to fetch water for them to drink, and went with him when he was alone.

"When you are lonely, I said that I will come by myself, why do you have to run this trip? After all, it is inconvenient for your legs and feet to be old......" Ouyang Qian carried a lot of water bottles, walking quite hard, and did not forget to amuse Lonely, that naughty posture really looked like a monkey head that had not grown up.

"I think you're beating me up again. Gu Shi raised the corners of his mouth and glared at him, and then asked with interest, "What did Qian'er go to the frontier for?"

"Send food and grass to the soldiers, let them get food and clothing, and observe the lives of the soldiers by the way. Actually, I really want to experience life in the barracks, and when my martial arts can satisfy my father-in-law, I can enter the barracks, I can guard the land of the Yuan Kingdom, and protect the people of the Yuan Kingdom, don't you think it makes a lot of sense?" Ouyang Qian looked at Gu Shi with his eyes seeking approval.

"Marching and fighting is not only about martial arts, the most important thing is to be able to arrange troops, have brains, and it is an errand that will lose your life if you are not careful, are you ready?"

"The soldiers guarded the land of the Yuan Kingdom all day long, rain or shine, and they never shouted tired, they are all heroes I admire, they are all my role models, and they are all my examples...... Since ancient times, who has not died in life? Death is valuable, and if you can die to defend the Yuan Kingdom, it can be regarded as a worthy death. Ouyang Qian found a place to draw water as he spoke, and squatted to fill the water bag.

Lonely Shi looked at Ouyang Qian with relief, Qian'er was well educated by the emperor, and she had already become a responsible adult.

After fetching water and going back, Ouyang Qian distributed the water bags to everyone.

Ouyang Qian and

Gu Shi rode side by side, and Ouyang Qian's vigor infected Gu Shi with vigor and vitality, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's good to be a young man, it's really energetic." "

"When you are lonely, do you want to go back to your hometown this year?"

"I can't go back in time this year, and my family has written that everything is fine, and they will come here for a while after the New Year. "

Ouyang Qian said happily: "That's great, this year Long Ting also came to the palace for the New Year, let's all spend it together, how lively." It's a pity that Aunt Long has always disliked the excitement, so she was alone at home, and Long Ting said that he would go back to accompany her for the New Year after eating and playing for a while. "

Gu Shi smiled and sighed: "When you children get together, you can turn the entire palace over." "

Because Ouyang Qian took good care of everyone, he won the hearts of the people along the way, and these people who accompanied him liked him very much.

When they arrived at the frontier, all the soldiers were already waiting early in the morning, and when they saw people and horses coming, their faces showed joy.

Ouyang Qian dismounted, and everyone also dismounted together, and Marshal Zhong Xiao led all the soldiers to kneel down together: "The last general greets His Royal Highness King Qian!"

Ouyang Qian picked up Zhong Xiao: "Marshal, please don't be polite." "

Ouyang Qian raised his voice and said: "Everyone, please get up, let everyone wait for a long time! This time, the military salary was delayed by a few months, not because the emperor had not paid it, but because there was another hidden situation. Please don't worry, this king will definitely find out who is behind the ghost. Turning around, he commanded, "Bring all the grain and grass down and distribute them to the various military camps." Seeing this, Zhong Xiao hurriedly motioned for the soldiers to move.

Ouyang Qian turned around and said loudly: "Everyone go to practice, please stay if you have chilblains and injured soldiers, this king has brought the imperial doctor to treat your injuries." "

"Thank you for your compassion and compassion to His Royal Highness King Qian!"

Ouyang Qian bowed slightly and returned the salute, and Zhong Xiao led the way for him to check on various places.

"Your Highness has traveled thousands of miles to the frontier, and you have worked hard along the way......" Zhong Xiao smiled innocently, he is the type of rough man, and he is usually very casual in managing people, so everyone likes to train with him, in contrast, when the new detachment enters the battalion, they all want to be assigned to his battalion. Bi Zhoucheng is more serious, usually not smiling, full of majesty, and extremely strict in training, so the brothers are more afraid of him, but there are few soldiers he brings out who do not stand out.

"It's not hard, it's the soldiers who have suffered, Ziyi feels ashamed, and he can't wait to replace him. The emperor was anxious when he heard that the frontier soldiers were working hard and that food and clothing were a problem, and the emperor was going to come in person, but he was too busy with affairs to get out of his way, so he ordered me to come and asked me to apologize to the soldiers on his behalf. Ouyang Qian was really ashamed to talk about this, and he also had a lot of emotion, he lived a chic and wanton life in the palace every day, they were hungry and cold here every day, and they had to stick to their posts ......

"The emperor is a rare benevolent monarch...... Zhong Xiao said with emotion, "He once led our brothers all the way to the south and the north, and never flinched, over the years, many countries have coveted the territory of our Yuan Kingdom, but because of the majesty of the emperor, they dare not act rashly, his great military exploits are enough to make all countries fearful." Some monarchs who are not afraid of death provoke in vain, and they all shoot themselves in the foot, and they will only become the laughing stock of the people. "

Ouyang Qian pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "The emperor is benevolent and righteous, and never takes the initiative to attack other countries, but if they dare to attack the idea of the Yuan Kingdom, the emperor will definitely not let it go easily." Speaking of this, he smiled and bowed his hand to Zhong Xiao, "The two marshals have been fighting for more than 20 years, and the first emperor has already had great military exploits when he was in power, and he has great prestige in various armies. "

Zhong Xiao

hurriedly bowed and saluted back, and said, "Your Highness is serious, if Your Highness really has the opportunity to command the three armies in the future, I, Zhong Xiao, will be the first to support you!"

"Thank you, Marshal. "

Ouyang Qian sent some food to the wounded and expressed his condolences: "Brothers, how do you feel about suffering?"

"Thank you for your concern, we are much better...... "The frostbitten soldiers thanked one after another.

"The emperor has sent a bounty to your family, and if you have a high hall and children in your family, you don't have to worry about life. In the future, the barracks will also leave some more doctors to take care of you, as well as medicinal herbs and chilblain medicine, so that you can relax and recuperate. "

"Thank you to the emperor and the prince for your compassion ......".

Condolences to his frostbitten brothers and elderly veterans, Ouyang Qian told Zhong Xiao and Bi Zhoucheng about the theft of grain and grass.

"Two marshals, the last time I came to the frontier, I guessed that the people who smuggled grain and grass, I don't know what the marshal thinks?"

Zhong Xiao arched his hand at him and said, "There is already enough evidence to prove that it is them, but His Highness ordered it first, and the last general did not expose it first." "

"I waited so long last time, and they showed a little bit of their feet, they are not smart people, there must be someone behind them to give advice, and we still have to catch the real mastermind. "

Bizhou Cheng said: "Your Highness means that through this transportation of grain and grass, the grain and grass were deliberately placed in a place that was easy to steal, so as to attract thieves to come and steal?"

"Grain and grass, like military war preparation, are all for the needs of the military camp, even if they are traded, they must be sold to the army, with this direction, we only need to start to investigate, which country's army they are selling to. "

Bi Zhoucheng nodded and said: "It makes sense, our purpose is not to deal with these scapegoats, but to find out who is behind the scenes, and to prevent this incident from happening." "

"Please ask the marshal to prepare a soldier's outfit for me, and I will go with them to see who is buying and selling the grain and grass of the Yuan Kingdom without permission. "

"The last will go with you. Zhong Xiao opened his mouth, Ouyang Qian shook his head, "You have been in the military camp for so many years, others know what you look like even if they close their eyes, the more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed, so I will go alone." "

"But......" Zhong Xiao worried, "In case His Highness is trapped in the enemy camp and is discovered by the enemy, and there is no one around to support him, how will His Highness escape?"

"I have the signal flare of the hidden guard

on me, and if it is really a last resort, I will light the signal flare, and there will be a hidden guard to come to support, and the marshal does not have to worry. "

"In that case, then there will be no choice but to obey fate. "
