July 25th.

The troops, food, weapons and equipment, and all pre-war work are ready and troops are about to be sent.

Outside the city, Li Xun rode his horse and galloped.

The army is about to go out tomorrow. In the past few days, Li Xun has been practicing horse riding outside the city. He learned how to ride a horse a few years ago, but this time he went out not to travel around the mountains and rivers, but to fight with the army. The speed and time of riding horses are not comparable to that of usual. The horse Li Xun rode now was given by his cousin Zhao Xun. It is said that it flowed into the capital from the grasslands in the north of the desert, and was then purchased by Zhao Xun at a high price. This time, he heard that Li Xun also wanted to go out with the army, so he gave this good horse to Li Xun.

Horses are good horses, but they are also wild, and they are incomparable to those horses in the family that they have been tamed. However, after a few days of running-in and getting close to each other, Li Xun can control the fierce horse under him and use it freely.

After having lunch at home, Li Mancang was frowning. It was obvious that he was worried about Li Xun's trip this time, so Li Xun had to persuade him and enlighten the old man.

The father and son were talking when someone from the palace summoned Li Xun to enter the palace.

"Old man, my aunt asked me to go, would you go?"

Li Mancang shook his head and sighed.

Li Xun smiled bitterly, thinking that the old man was thinking too much, just going out for a trip! What's there to worry about?

When we arrived at Changle Palace, not only my aunt Li Yi was there, but Zhao Zhi was there too. Two eunuchs stood below them. Mu Gong Li Xun knew him, but another eunuch in his thirties was very strange and had never seen him.

"Dou'er kowtowed to the emperor's uncle and aunt."

Li Xun knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times.

"Get up."

Zhao Zhi had a smile on his face. He liked Li Xun quite a lot. Although Li Xun was a bit vulgar, carefree, had a low education, and often did words and things beyond etiquette, being with such a person makes Zhao Zhi often recall the life of a civilian in the past, and he would be so close from the bottom of his heart.

Li Xun stood up and said with a smile: "Uncle, what's the matter with asking dogs to come?"

"Nothing big is going to go to war tomorrow. I have a few words to tell you."

Zhao Zhi said indifferently: "In the army, you must be careful in your words and actions, read more and learn more, and speak less. You cannot do anything wrong in my name. If any bad or illegal violations come to my ears, even if your aunt pleads with you, I will never let you go."

Li Xun bowed and said seriously: "Gou'er must keep this in mind what the emperor's uncle said and dare not go beyond the slightest."

Zhao Zhi nodded. At this time, an eunuch trotted in and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the prime ministers from the Political Affairs Hall have arrived at the Mingzheng Hall."

"Yaya, I have something to do, so you can talk to Dog'er."

Li Yi helped Zhao Zhi get up and watched the emperor leave.

"Gou'er, I'll go to the army tomorrow. How do you feel?"

Li Yi waved her hand and asked Li Xun to sit down and talk.

Li Xun found a seat to sit down and laughed: "I'm not hiding it from my aunt, I'm really nervous."

Li Yi smiled faintly and said, "General Anguo Huang Xiang is a cautious and steady person. If you follow him, your aunt will be relieved."

"Aunt, what position does this military judge have?"

Li Xun knew that the position of military supervisor was usually held by senior eunuchs in the palace and the emperor's confidant. As for the judge of military supervisor, this was the first time Li Xun heard about it.

Li Yi explained: "The military supervisor does not have any official rank, it is just a temporary position, but it has great power. It has the right to supervise the leading general and record rewards and punishments. You, the military supervisor, are nominally the deputy of the military supervisor, but in fact you have no power."

Li Yi finally reminded: "You must remember that the purpose of your trip is to go through the motions. You don't need to do anything. You just need to stay honestly in the army and wait until the war is over."

Li Xun nodded, unable to help feeling a little disappointed. The military judge, his name sounds good, turned out to be just a false head.

"The eunuch who just stood with Mu Gong was Liu Congxi. The supervisor of the Pingnan army this time is the emperor's confidant. You have to establish a good relationship with him."

Li Xun said in surprise: "I know most of the eunuchs around the emperor's uncle. Since this person named Liu Congxi is the confidant of the emperor's uncle, why have I never seen him?"

"If you don't know too much, what's there to make a fuss about?"

Li Yi glared at Li Xun: "He used to be supervising the tax on salt roads in Jiangnan, and was transferred back to the capital just now."

Li Xun didn't care about these things. He glanced at Li Yi and said with a smile: "Auntie, you're going to go to war with the army soon. My nephew doesn't have a decent piece of equipment yet. There are so many good things in the palace. Can you send me two pieces?"

Li Yi smiled: "The military supervisor is a civilian and does not need to wear armor. You can just wear plain clothes and bring a few pieces of changing clothes to report directly to the military camp."

Li Xun smiled bitterly and said, "You must have a weapon in your hand! Otherwise, it would be a bit awkward to be in the military camp with empty hands."

Li Yi glanced at Li Xun and smiled lightly, "Don't hide what you want."

Li Xun rubbed his hands and laughed: "Didn't the emperor's uncle have a sword for my aunt's place! Let's lend it to my nephew for use!"

Zhao Zhi had a sword named "Dingtai" in Li Yi. He looked ordinary and did not have much fame. He was originally rewarded to King Zhao Xun of Qi, but Zhao Xun himself liked literature and was disgusted with martial arts, so he didn't want it, so he kept it in Changle Palace. Now that Li Xun wanted it, Li Yi thought about it and nodded in agreement.

After receiving the Dingtai sword, Li Xun was happy all over the sky and immediately said goodbye and left.

Walking in the imperial city, Li Xun thought that he would leave tomorrow. I don’t know how long it would take to come back. He thought of Zhao Yue in his heart. He met her half a month ago. At that time, Zhao Yue was in a bad mood and lacked energy. She was obviously sick. I don’t know if she has recovered now.

"Xiao Lezi, please go to Princess Yue's residence. After a message, I'm here and ask her if she can meet."

Li Xun could not go to the residence of Zhao Yue and the female royal family members. He was only allowed to enter and exit the two places in the palace, Jinmo Palace and Changle Palace, and he could enter and exit freely, and he had to be accompanied by eunuchs. In other places, the approval of Emperor Zhao Zhi, wandering around at will is a crime of disrespect and is very serious.

Li Xun stood there waiting. Zhao Yue lived deep in the palace. It was not until half an hour later that Xiao Lezi returned: "Princess Yue has been sick recently. When I went there, the palace maid who served said that Princess Yue had just taken medicine to sleep."

Li Xun shook his head and sighed. He suddenly felt that Zhao Yue was very pitiful. He was weak since childhood. Because of his mother Yang Guifei, he was not loved by Zhao Zhi. He had no friend in the palace and lived alone.

There was nothing to say all night. Before dawn the next day, Li Xun got up early, holding the Dingtai Sword in his left hand and the BMW in his right hand, and walked towards the door with great energy. As soon as he was about to go out, Li Xun looked back and suddenly found that his father Li Mancang was standing in the distance, looking at this side with reluctance. Li Xun's eyes were slightly red, and he bowed deeply to his father, then took the horse and walked out of the house without looking back.
