After Su Xubai returned, as soon as he sat down, he received a letter from the capital. The person who wrote the letter was his father. The border pass that his father obeyed unexpectedly encountered very serious attacks and raids. He wanted his father to protect the border pass.
city wall, but he himself was seriously injured.
Because he was worried that there would be no way to properly heal his wounds on the battlefield, under the arrangement of the emperor, the Marquis of Wuchang, who had been guarding the border, was secretly sent back to the capital.
The border cannot be left without generals for a day. Although the southern border is currently guarded by Su Xubai and his concubine brothers, although his concubine brothers are somewhat capable of fighting, they are very poor in strategy. Wuchang
Hou knew very well the abilities of his sons, so he wrote to Su Xubai at this time.
The purpose of the Marquis of Wuchang is very clear. The prince of Wuchang Marquis is a stupid man. If he is allowed to go to the border, he will only be able to go and not come back. And now, there are disputes everywhere, and Chaotian can't send anyone at all, so
After much deliberation, the Marquis of Wuchang decided to let Su Xubai return to Beijing and then ask for orders to go to the border.
Su Xubai looked at the letter in his hand and his expression became a little unkind: "I have never heard of anything happening in southern Xinjiang. How could it suddenly cause such a big fuss at this time?"
Isatis, who delivered the letter, had already inquired about what was going on with the messenger. The attack in southern Xinjiang this time was very big. I heard that the city was almost broken, but the Marquis of Wuchang still fought to the death.
Only then could the city gate be saved. The two sides fought and both sides suffered losses. No one gained the slightest advantage.
"I think our Lord Marquis has no other choice, so he wrote to the Fifth Lord, hoping to let the Fifth Lord go back and take charge of the overall situation." Silan Lan's face was a little solemn.
"I am the youngest son, and all my elders above me are my elder brothers. What should I do if I go back to make the decision? Even if I really go back, will they be willing to listen to a kid like me?" Su Xubai sighed, "The entire Su family,
I am the youngest. Normally, the eldest brother would consider himself a brother and would listen to a few words from me, but none of those bastards are always quick to show off. If I go to southern Xinjiang at this time, wouldn’t it be a big deal?
A living target for these boys?"
Silan didn't know what to say for a moment. In fact, Su Xubai was the most talented among the five brothers. He had a photographic memory no matter whether he was studying or practicing martial arts. He would remember things he had been taught very firmly.
, nothing can be forgotten.
In fact, they all know very well that the person who is really suitable for the title is not the boss, but Su Xubai. If a person wants to be a marquis, he must not only be good at martial arts, but more importantly, he must have a brain. Su Xu
Bai has read poetry and books since he was a child and is familiar with all the art of war. Among the brothers, no one is more suitable for this title than him.
It's just a pity that Marquis Yongchang has his own plans. He always feels that the eldest son is not smart because when he was about to be raised, the family was in trouble and his enlightenment was late, so he has never been very smart. If such a child does not have a title, he will not be smart.
If there is no way to inherit the family business, the days to come will definitely be miserable.
As for those concubines, they have no energy at all. No matter how hard we try to get them to study, they can't learn. There is no way to take them with us to fight. It's better to do it. There is nothing they can do in the capital.
Eat together.
That is to say, due to the incompetence of the brothers above, Su Xubai was favored by the Marquis of Wuchang since he was a child. Reading, writing, and taking the imperial examinations, Su Xubai's journey was very smooth. Only when he became an official did he succeed.
There were some stumbles, but now the young man is already the Young Minister of Dali Temple. Apart from being slightly worse than his eldest brother who is about to inherit the title, he is already much better than the other brothers.
The Marquis of Wuchang took everything into consideration, but he never thought that when the dynasty was at its peak, someone would attack the dynasty at this time, so he never considered whether these boys were capable of suppressing the dynasty.
Guarding the border, he always felt that he was still young and could hold on until they were able to guard the border.
It's just that in this world, people are not as good as God. Everything in his family is fine, but he didn't expect that he would be seriously injured, let alone that when I had enough food and grass for my horse, all the things in his family would be fine.
There was actually a commotion on the border at the same time.
Suddenly, no one could go to Nanjiang to guard the city. The Marquis of Wuchang had no choice but to write to Su Xubai, urging him to return to the capital.
After all, Su Xubai's external errand was inspection, which sounded like a very simple and unimportant errand, so the Marquis of Wuchang wanted him to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
But Wuchang Hou probably didn't expect that Su Xubai's real mission was to capture the rebellious seventh prince, so he couldn't go back yet.
Su Xubai was about to write a letter. He lifted the pen and finally put it down. He really didn't know how to tell his father that he couldn't go back now because his errand was a secret from the royal family. If he told this matter,
, the heads of the whole family are almost no longer around their own necks.
But the current border crossing was indeed very difficult, and he really couldn't let it go, so he didn't know how to write in reply to this letter.
After hesitating for a long time, Su Xubai finally wrote a letter to His Highness the Prince. He had no way to tell his father directly that he could not go back now because he did not have a very smooth reason at hand, so he could only
Please ask His Highness the Crown Prince to help him with this!
At the same time, Meng Lingjing also received letters of harassment from the border areas, which also included the places guarded by several disciples of the Yongchang Hou Mansion.
Meng Lingjing felt more and more that this matter had become a bit strange now. It was not that they looked down on the seventh prince. He was just a prince with no real power and had no ability to provoke so many people to help him rebel. So this incident
Things became so weird that he even began to wonder if the Seventh Prince was really still in Lingnan.
The most troublesome thing for them is that they have no way to confirm whether the Seventh Prince is really in Lingnan. They even begin to suspect that this matter was not planned by the Seventh Prince alone. But at the moment, they don't have any evidence.
Those who can turn their eyes black, rely on intuition, and crawl forward.
But just when they were both doubting this matter, someone secretly sneaked into Meng Duiwan's yard with a knife.
