Chapter 1588: Glass Purple Star 127
t."What's wrong with Mother"Feng Lingxi questioned Dugu Cheng, "Did Dugu Yan attack your mother"They imprisoned the imperial concubine in the Prince's residence, and the mother-in-law was also confine..."Your Majesty, the most urgent matter now is to find a way to defend Lixi County. Once that county falls, the other cities will also be conquered one after another."
The King addressed the Empress Dowager, noticing the anxiety in her eyes, and suggested, "I believe we should have the General of the National Guard lead the troops out to quell the rebellion. We must absolutely prevent Huangfu Qingyun from attacking."
"Wind Transmission Pride of Heaven."
The Empress Dowager immediately summoned someone. In just a moment, they returned with news that Feng Aotian had fallen from the roof while repairing tiles this morning and broken his bones, making it impossible for him to enter the palace.
"This fall was way overdue."
"I will dispatch someone to investigate and see if it's a forgery."
The King asked his father-in-law to investigate while looking at the Empress Dowager's anger, he comforted her, "Empress Dowager, this Huangfu Qingyun must be furious because Feng Lingxi refused him, so he wanted to attack Linxi County out of spite. After all, Linxi County is where Feng Lingxi lived for several years."
"Of course I know about her connection to that woman, but right now we can't afford to worry about who's involved. We need to solve this as quickly as possible."
The Empress Dowager rubbed her temples, "Your Majesty is like this now, he simply can't handle these matters. This old woman is truly at her wit's end. Of all the officials in court who could lead an army for me, I fear only Prince Yu remains. But this old woman really doesn't want to send you into danger."
"Your Majesty, although I have no experience leading armies into battle, I did help suppress bandits several times while serving in Liangzhou. If Your Majesty needs me to go on campaign, I will do my utmost and will certainly defend Linxi County, so as not to disappoint You."
"No, if you go to war, this chancellor will take advantage of the situation and attack me. The emperor is already like this; the Jiangshan of the Yuan Dynasty cannot fall into the hands of others."
The Empress Dowager immediately denied, refusing to allow King Yu to go on the adventure.
With a flicker in his eyes, the King of Honor suggested, "Your Majesty Empress Dowager, perhaps it would be best if Prince Chen went instead"
"No, if he were to go, wouldn't all the Great Yuan army fall into his hands again Although Feng Aotian can't go himself, this empress has heard that his sons are all brave and skilled warriors. Wasn't there a Feng Yumò serving beside King Chen back then Pass down the imperial decree, have Feng Yumò take up arms, fight in place of Feng Aotian, and quell this rebellion."
King Rong frowned, "Empress Dowager, this Wind Feather Ink has been missing for five years. To suddenly summon him now is probably futile."
"With Wind Ling out in the open, Wind Yu Mo will naturally appear as well. You may just pass on the decree. This Empress believes that Wind Yu Mo will come." The Empress Dowager's eyes were filled with calculation. She didn't believe that besides Prince Chen, there was anyone else in the Great Yuan Dynasty who could lead troops into battle.
The imperial decree arrived quickly at the General Feng's Mansion. Wind Aotian limped to receive it, and upon hearing that he was to be sent out on campaign in his place, he was stunned. He hurriedly explained to the eunuch who delivered the decree, "Zhang Gonggong, my son Yu Mo is not at home. I can't make him come out to receive the decree."
"The Imperial General, the Empress said that since you are unable to go on campaign now, she would have Feng Yu Mo take your place. As for his current whereabouts, perhaps you should ask Feng Ling Xi, she certainly knows."
Feng Aotian heard his father-in-law's words, his eyes filled with doubt. Could Yu Mo have returned
But during this time, he also went to look for Feng Lingxi. He didn't see Yu Mo, and he didn't have any news at all.
"General Zhen Guo, have you had a doctor take a look at your injuries What did the doctor say"
Feng Aotian regained his senses and hurriedly replied, "I broke some bones and need time to recover. It's really strange. I was just repairing a tile on the roof when suddenly someone ambushed me. I fell down without knowing how."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"Being played"
Feng Aotian nodded, “This matter cannot be told to outsiders. It's just that the more this general thinks about it, the stranger it becomes. Who would scheme against this general”
"We will report back to the Empress Dowager when we return home, and we will definitely help the General find out the truth. General, please take good care of yourself, we will bid you farewell for now."
Zhang Gonggong led the messenger away. Feng Aotien lowered his head to look at the imperial edict in his hand, then at his broken leg. It seemed that it had something to do with this edict, but who would be so cruel to him
"Go to Lord Lu's residence and invite the fourth Miss back. Tell her that this general has something important to discuss with her."
Feng Aotien ordered Zhao Shi to come over. She glanced at Feng Aotien's leg and hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "General, the Emperor has decreed that Yu Mo go on campaign. This is clearly a sign of favoritism towards him. This is a good opportunity."
"What a great opportunity! Do you know who he's facing this time It's the Crown Prince of the Arah Xia Dynasty, Huangfu Qingyun. His martial arts and intelligence are no less than those of Prince Chen. The Arah Xia Dynasty has always been peaceful these past years. If they really fight, do you think Yu Mo can be his opponent"
Feng Aotian had been campaigning and fighting for many years, and he had met with Huangfu Qingyun many times. He was also well-acquainted with him.
Back then, Huangfu Qingyun liked Xi'er. Coupled with the Emperor and Empress of Aoxia Dynasty and Yao Wan'ying's relationship, this Aoxia Dynasty had always been a policy of "non-aggression unless attacked." But now, Xi'er refused his marriage proposal again. If Huangfu Qingyun truly turned against them out of spite, he would be a formidable opponent to deal with.
This ink doesn't work, otherwise let Yi Xuan try He also followed the former emperor on expeditions.
"No."
Feng Aotien didn't hesitate to refuse, "Yi Xuan can't go on the expedition. He can only stay in the capital. His body isn't good enough for military campaigns and battles. Besides, the General's Mansion is not short of people who can go on expeditions. Anyone can do it, except him."
Mentioning Feng Yixuan was like poking Feng Aotians's sore spot. As a protective father, he couldn't let Feng Yixuan go on adventures. He only had this one son now, and if something happened to him, the General's Mansion would truly be finished.
"The general is too biased! They are all your sons, why can Feng Yumo go, but Feng Yixuan can't If my son Yihao were here, I would definitely send him to relieve the emperor's worries." Zhao's words were met with a slap from Feng Aotien. This scene happened to be seen by Feng Yuxi, who was out playing with her children.
"Dad."
Feng Yu Xi hurriedly stepped forward, glanced at his beaten mother, and quickly pleaded, "Mother, what did you do wrong You want to beat her If it's because of me, I can..."
"It has nothing to do with you, you mere woman. If you can't speak, just shut your mouth and don't talk nonsense." Feng Aotien's face was ashen, footsteps came from the door, and Feng Lingxi walked in with someone, and this person was Feng Yumo, who had been summoned by the imperial decree this time.
"Yu Mo."
Feng Aotian saw Feng Yu Mo return, overjoyed. He hurried over with his cane. Feng Yu Mo coldly looked at him, without moving forward to help him.
"You broke your leg What happened"
Feng Lingxi looked at Zhao Shi, the suspicion in her eyes made Zhao Shi hurriedly explain, "What are you looking at It wasn't me who did it."
"I didn't say it was you, why are you so quick to explain"
Feng Lingxi's words blocked Zhao shi's mouth. Thinking that she couldn't argue with Feng Lingxi, she simply didn't speak.
"I was fixing the roof tiles when I was ambushed and fell, breaking my leg."ickly. "Who""It was me."Li Wuyan walked out from the shadows, and seeing him, Dugu Cheng was surprised, "How are you here"Feng Lingxi followed him out and saw Li Wuyan say faintly, "Come in.""Xier, he...
