MTL - Raising Wolves-v2 Chapter 90

The Mobei Rebellion was completely as expected by Lu Qingze and Ning Juan, and everything was arranged in advance.

But the Southwest Rebellion was a little unexpected.

The King of Shu intends to assassinate the Emperor, and the evidence is conclusive. Not only the King of Shu, but also his lineage will be implicated. The imperial emissary responsible for going to the land of Shu only set out with the imperial edict a few days ago, and is still on the way.

Even if the Prince of Shu got the news in advance and knew the situation of the King of Shu in the capital, according to his character, he would not be able to react so simply and neatly.

- Unless, this person is not as stupid and incompetent as rumored.

In the billowing cloud that was thick like heavy ink, the cold electricity suddenly tore a crack.

Lu Qing was a little stunned, Ning Juan reached out his hand in time, took the falling colorful rope, held the broken rope with two fingers, and stretched out his hand to throw it away.

The cut rope was thrown far away, fell into the ditch, washed away along the rain, and soon disappeared.

Lu Qing took a slight breath, put down the scissors, took two urgent reports, handed one to Ning Juan, and opened it for a look.

The report on the letter should be written more clearly.

Three days ago, Jiaozhi sent troops, and the king of Yundian, who was guarding the southwest, was caught off guard. He was betrayed by the people around him, pushed down the city wall and fell to his death.

However, in a few days, the Jiaozhi army and Ning Sheng's private soldiers gathered across Yun and Yunnan, recruiting troops and recruiting horses along the way, forcibly recruiting people into the army.

The southwest was already chaotic, but now it has turned into a pot of porridge.

The flat-headed people were powerless to resist. Now that they heard the news of the rebels, they hurriedly fled to Qianzhong. However, the troops in Qianzhong were weak, and they would not be able to withstand the private soldiers of Jiaozhi and the King of Shu for long.

Ning Juan glanced at Mobei's report, then came over to look at the situation in the southwest, he pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "Mobei's good news, the Tartar and Oara army suffered a great loss, losing tens of thousands of troops, But Ulihan is not stupid, after suffering a big loss, he probably won't make a second mistake again."

When General Shi was around, Tartar and Oara became angry when they heard his name.

And now the commander of Mobei is Shi Xice, the son of General Shi.

Even the Tartars knew that the son of General Shi Da had been lost for more than ten years before he found it, so naturally they would not be afraid.

Lu Qing said calmly: "The combination of Tartar and Oira cannot be underestimated. Even if Daqi has the upper hand, the guards in Mobei cannot be transferred."

And the military generals in the DPRK are often old and weak, and it is inconvenient to expedition to the southwest.

Both of them are very clear about this.

Ning Juan didn't hesitate: "Huaixue, I'm going to go to the southwest myself to quell the rebels."

He could not let the war in the southwest go unnoticed.

Lu Qing opened his mouth, but his mind was blank for a few moments.

He didn't want Ning Juan to go to the battlefield, but under the current circumstances, Ning Juan had to go.

The battlefield is unpredictable and dangerous. Even if he believes in Ningjuan's ability, the ending of Ningjuan in the original book also leaves a lingering shadow on his head, but there is no way to talk about those things.

After a long while without hearing Lu Qingze's response, Ning Juan looked away from the emergency report, only to find that Lu Qingze was looking at him with a complicated look in his eyes, not always calm and calm.

"What's wrong?" Ning Juan shook his hand, and found that it was a little cold, so he simply held his hand with both hands.

Lu Qing was quiet for a while, without revealing those messy worries, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, the situation is urgent, call the ministers to discuss immediately."

The five cabinet ministers, the Ministry of War, the Minister of the Household and other important ministers, as well as a group of generals braved the cold rain, quickly rushed to the South Study Room.

When he arrived, His Majesty the Emperor stood by the window with his arms and hands, looking to the southwest.

Noticing that Lu Qingze was also in the south study room, everyone suddenly felt a little sullen. The south study room is usually the place where His Majesty convened all the ministers to discuss matters. Why is this vase here?

But in front of His Majesty, everyone did not dare to say anything, and saluted in a proper manner.

Seeing that His Majesty had no intention of opening his mouth, Fan Xingyan deliberately opened his mouth and asked cautiously, "I don't know if His Majesty has summoned ministers, what is the important thing?"

Ning Juan turned around and raised his fingers slightly.

Chang Shun, who was waiting on the side, bowed and handed the two urgent reports to several cabinet ministers and let them circulate them.

Seeing the above content clearly, everyone's face changed dramatically.

They all knew what was going on inside Daqi.

For a while, everyone looked at each other and whispered: "Who has the ability to pacify the southwest?"

"General Wei may have the strength to fight."

"General Wei only relapsed due to an old injury last month, and now he is still lying in bed, unable to move. I only visited Wei's mansion yesterday, and he doesn't know much about his lower body. How can he go on the battlefield!"

"If Mobei can be pacified sooner, maybe General Shi Xiao can..."

"Nonsense, not to mention when Mobei will be stabilized, even if Mobei is stabilized and the Tartars and Oirats are repelled, there can be no defenders!"

"I have always heard that the Prince of Shu and the Prince of Shu are in the same blood, and they are both ordinary... I didn't expect..."

"Alas, just now I have cultivated my life, the people have settled down, and the war has broken out again!"

Everyone had a headache discussing for a while, but they couldn't figure out who was most suitable to lead the battle.

Even those veterans in the DPRK, on ​​the way to the southwest, will make people worry that their old bones can't stand it.

Ning Juan looked at a few people discussing it lightly, and tapped lightly on the table with his knuckles rhythmically. When he saw that they had calmed down, he said calmly, "I have already decided to go to the southwest by myself."

When one sentence landed, all the ministers were shocked and their scalps numb.

Suddenly, everyone knelt down without hesitation, and persuaded in unison: "Your Majesty, please think again!"

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

"The southwest is dangerous, your Majesty's daughter, don't take risks!"

Swords on the battlefield don't have long eyes, so dangerous, what if something happens?

Daqi has waited for three generations, and it is so easy to wait for a Mingjun!

Ning Lian lowered his eyes and looked at the important officials who were kneeling on the ground: "I have made up my mind, or can you find a more suitable general?"

One sentence made everyone speechless.

They have only discussed for a long time, and there is no suitable candidate.

His Majesty the Emperor goes out in person, which naturally boosts morale, but...

Fan Xingyan sighed in his heart.

Back then, when Jiangyou was flooded, flooded, and epidemics spread, His Majesty dared to go deep into Jiangyou and personally put the chaotic Jiangyou into order. Now that there is war in the southwest, how could His Majesty allow the ministers below to hesitate and delay the war opportunity.

He glanced at Lu Qingze, who was holding the tea cup silently beside him, and guessed in his heart that before summoning them, His Majesty and Lu Qingze should have discussed it.

Even Lu Qingze couldn't persuade His Majesty, or even agreed, how could they persuade him?

Fan Xingyan kowtowed silently: "Wei Chen understands that if Qianzhong falls again, the rebels will win three victories, and it will be hard to resist. My minister, support Your Majesty's decision."

With Fan Xingyan speaking, the others were silent for a long time, and they had to kowtow.

They just accepted the news reluctantly, and Ning Juan continued: "I have issued an edict to appoint the prince Ning Siyue as the heir, the ceremony will be simplified, and I will pay tribute to the ancestors when I return. , the cabinet ministers will assist you."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's brains began to buzz again, and they even ignored His Majesty's respect and blurted out: "What?!"

Even Lu Qingze, who was silent and sipping tea by the side, was stunned.

This was not negotiated in advance.

In addition to being shocked, the rest of the people were also angry, and the eyes they looked at Lu Qingze changed.

Recently, there have been many rumors about the emperor in Beijing, which has brought back memories of many people. The emperor is kind to many people, has extensive knowledge, is generous and benevolent, and when he was in the court, His Majesty also knew how to act restrained, not too much. The sword goes sideways.

The more you miss the emperor, the worse everyone's impression of this male queen will naturally be.

The origin is unknown, the identity is unknown, and there is a good skin bag, and it is also a bit similar to the emperor's teacher, which confuses Your Majesty!

I heard that on the night of the Qianyuan Festival, several courtiers couldn't bear it and mocked him face to face, but he didn't understand.

Such a beautiful idiot, what does he know, His Majesty asked him to come to supervise the country!

Could it be that Your Majesty was really confused by this demon queen?

Except for Fan Xingyan, he knelt on the ground again with a plop, and everyone poignantly persuaded: "Your Majesty, please think twice, Her Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness may not know political affairs, the affairs in Beijing are messy, he..."

He knows shit!

The Mobei and Southwest fronts need dispatching assistance from the rear. The power is in the hands of such people. Are you not afraid of the fire in the rear?

Ning Juan was still unmoved: "I have prepared an edict, so there is no need to say more."

The others were dying of anxiety, seeing that Fan Xingyan didn't say a word, and desperately winked at him.

Fan Xingyan has a good relationship with the emperor, and maybe His Majesty can listen to his words for three points!

In the eyes of everyone's expectations, Fan Xingyan glanced at Lu Qingze, and bowed: "Wei minister leads the way."

Everyone: "…"

It's black in front of you.

His Majesty's wrist is strong, and everyone knows it.

Now that the decree has been drawn up, it is impossible to change His Majesty's meaning.

Everyone looked like a wandering soul, and the eyes that stared at Lu Qingze became more and more bad.

Except for Fan Xingyan, who was the first to agree, no one was convinced by this new queen.

But dare not say anything.

The ministers discussed the details of the personal expedition with Ning Juan in the south study room. When the sky was getting darker, they left the south study room with a worried look on their face.

A few days ago, the vassal king and the Tartars came to Beijing, and all parties in the capital were dispatched. The three battalions had been gaining momentum for a long time. Because the Mobei was not peaceful, they did not withdraw immediately. A catastrophe.

Your Majesty's personal expedition, naturally no one dared to neglect, tonight the three major battalions ordered troops overnight, tomorrow morning, Ning Juan will be able to lead the army and rush to the southwest.

Before that, food and grass had come first.

As soon as the rest of the people left, Lu Qing, who had been quiet for a long time, finally couldn't help but frown and said, "When you just came here, you didn't say that you wanted me to assist the crown prince to supervise the country."

Ning Juan didn't think there was anything wrong with him being executed first and then replaying. He was His Majesty the Emperor, and he even spoke up and was quite reasonable: "Huaixue, apart from you, no one is more suitable, and no one can make me feel more at ease."

Lu Qingze and Ning Juan's dark eyes looked at each other for a moment, and he could see that Ning Juan was sincere, and sighed softly, "I see."

He had thought a few times before, maybe he could accompany Ning Juan to the southwest to fight in the southwest as he did when he went to Jiangyou with Ning Juan.

Not looking at Ning Juan, he felt uneasy.

But Ning Juan seemed to have sensed his thoughts, so he simply did not discuss with him, and directly informed the minister that he would supervise the country.

He can't stay if he doesn't.

Ning Juan turned around frankly, patted his thigh, and motioned him to sit here: "Come here and tell me."

Lu Qing ignored him, walked to the desk, looked down at the real Daqi defense map on the table: "I wrote a letter when I left the capital, you should have seen it, the letter asks you to improve the fire. Gun, are you listening?"

Daqi is not very clever in the military use of gunpowder. Fire guns are old and backward, with many restrictions, and no one has thought of improving them for many years. Emphasizes the importance of firearms.

Studying these is not for the purpose of invading the surrounding area or expanding territory, but for self-protection.

Seeing that he ignored him, Ning Jian decided to satisfy himself and stretched out his hand to catch it, while Lu Qing was still looking at the border defense map, and was caught off guard and fell into his arms and sat on his lap.

"...Your Majesty," Lu Qing said coldly, "We are talking about business."

"It's not the same where you sit?" Ning Yan hugged him tightly, put his head against his shoulder, sniffed the good smell on his body, and whispered, "We're going to see each other for a long time, I miss you so much, do you miss me?"

Before Lu Qing could speak, he said to himself, "Why would you be reluctant to part with me? You were annoying me so much that last night I didn't let me hold you to sleep and kicked me. ."

Lu Qing was still struggling, trying to get off Ning Lan's legs, and when he heard him cover himself with a pot inexplicably, he was immediately angry and funny: "Which eye do you think I'd give up on you? It was so hot last night that I could hug me out. You’re sweating, but you’re too embarrassed to say—speaking of business.”

Ning Juan snorted aggrievedly, as if his ears were drooping: "I listened to your words and improved."

In the past few years, the three major battalions have been reorganized, and they are already a strong and sharp personal soldier in his hands.

Lu Qing has made suggestions on the improvement of fire guns. He prefers to be tired and recruits wizards. Now the fire guns have been improved, with less consumables than before, but much higher mobility than before.

It's only been three years, and there are limited things that can be changed. The cost of training soldiers proficient in fire guns is too high. The Shenji Battalion has only 5,000 people. It has not yet been used in actual combat.

"I'll leave 5,000 elite soldiers for you." Speaking of this, Ning Juan's expression became serious. "These 5,000 soldiers are all dead soldiers, and I only follow your orders."

Five thousand people, staying in the capital, are enough to guard the safety.

Lu Qingze paused, nodded, no longer struggling to get out of the confines of Ning Juan's circle, his slightly stretched shoulders loosened, letting himself lean on Ning Juan, his lips moved, wanting to say something, In the end, he didn't say: "It's not early, you have to go out tomorrow, rest early."

Ning Juan stared at him for a while, then suddenly in this position, he easily hugged Lu Qingze and stood up.

Lu Qing was fascinated, slightly startled, and subconsciously wrapped his arms around his neck: "What are you doing? Put me down."

Ning Juan didn't speak, hugged him firmly, then walked out of the south study with his head held high. .

Lu Qing didn't dare to move. With his body bones, he was afraid that he would be paralyzed for half a month when he fell, and it was not good to scold Ning Juan in front of the rest of the palace servants. He could only endure the shame and let Ning Juan be Tuo hugged him, kicked open the bedroom door, stepped into the inner room, and put him on the dragon bed.

The bed curtain fell, and the strong body of His Majesty the Emperor was pressed down, and in a small space, he was tightly locked inside: "You have been restless these days. What are you worried about, Huaixue?"

Lu Qing was stunned for a moment.

He habitually restrained all his emotions, and his performance was so subtle that it was difficult to detect, and sometimes he didn't notice it.

But Ning Juan was very concerned about him, and found his complicated thoughts from the very beginning.

He tilted his head slightly, not wanting to admit that he would be disturbed by some ethereal things, but finally said: "It's just... a nightmare."

Ning Juan came over and lightly pecked his lips: "Tell me about it."

It's too strong, and it's strangely gentle.

Gentle and strong, not annoying.

Lu Qing had no choice but to take such Ning Juan, so he said helplessly: "It's not very lucky, you will go out tomorrow, so it's inconvenient to hear."

"I don't believe that."

Ning Juan pecked at his soft lips again, brushed away the messy hair on his temples, rubbed his calloused fingers against the tear mole at the corner of his eyes, rubbed that piece of skin red, and stubbornly asked: " Huaixue, what did you dream about?"

Lu Qing could only say: "I dreamed..."

He recalled the battle between Ning Juan and the protagonist in the original novel.

After so many years, he couldn't remember many details of the original book, but he still remembered the part about Ning Juan very well.

"When the two armies were fighting, you were shot through your shoulder by a cold arrow and fell off your horse."

"...The chaotic army marched past, and no one helped you."

Ning Juan slipped his fingers, stroked his lips, nodded calmly and asked, "Then am I dead?"

Lu Qing didn't even have time to slap his hand away. He heard the words and frowned, his face slightly serious: "Of course not! Don't say this word casually."

"It turns out that Huaixue is worried about this." Ning Juan thoughtfully said, "After all, if I can't come back, you will be a widow."

Lu Qing was angry and pushed him away.

Ning Juan didn't take much precaution against him, but was really overturned by Lu Qingze, turned over and stood beside the bed.

Lu Qing sat up and looked up at Ning Juan, but he was very imposing, and said coldly: "I'm not joking with you, Ning Jiwei, how did you go to the southwest? Come back, one hair less, and I won't even look at you again."

It was the first time that Ning Juan had seen such an impressive Lu Qingze.

But he was secretly untied by Ning Juan, his clothes were disheveled, his lips and the corners of his eyes were red, and he was cold and charming, but that demeanor made Ning Juan's heart itch, so he half-kneeled by the bedside, Help him take off the boots on his feet: "Don't worry, Huaixue, if I fall off my horse, no one will dare to help me."

He raised his eyes and said, his voice was slow and calm, but contained a heart-shattering confidence: "What's more, I will never lose to anyone."

Lu Qing met his eyes, his eyelashes trembled, and the faint worry in his heart disappeared suddenly.

Even the cold color on his face disappeared a little.

Ning Juan noticed the change in his mood, and slowly took off his boots and socks, and said with a smile, "Huai Xue's appearance just now is really domineering."

Lu Qing pursed his lips. Just now, he was irritated by Ning Juan's contemptuous appearance. It was rare that he couldn't control his tone. Tired of caring.

Who knows that Ning Juan's next sentence is: "I really like it."

Lu Qingze: "..."

Ning Juan's hand wrapped around his ankle and slowly rubbed it, reminding him of the previous time when Ning Siyue was being questioned beside him, and Ning Yan grabbed his foot to play with him.

I don't know why Ning Wan likes to play with his ankles so much.

...or Ning Juan just likes to touch any part of him, the moles on his lips, his lips, his hair, the tips of his ears, the back of his neck, as long as he can touch them, they are marked by his puppy. Leave your mark.

Lu Qing couldn't help but scolded: "Your Majesty, sometimes you really look like a pervert."

Ning Juan suddenly felt that at some point, Lu Qing called him Your Majesty, which seemed to be somewhat similar to his calling him Teacher.

He narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Huaixue, I haven't really shown you a pervert."

Lu Qing thought about Ning Juan's misdeeds and thought incredulously, aren't you perverted enough?

Seeing his somewhat frightened look, Ning Juan wrapped his ankles and stood up with a happy smile.

Lu Qing was forced to raise his legs and shrank his feet unhappily: "What do you do, let me go."

"Huaixue, I'm leaving the capital tomorrow." Ning Juan stared at him with burning eyes, and there seemed to be a tail wagging behind him, "This trip may be gone for half a year."

Only then did Lu Qing realize that the atmosphere seemed to be a little different.

He only agreed to accept that Ning Juan was not more than a month old, and the two would have to separate. He was used to having few desires and didn't pay much attention to this aspect. For His Majesty the Emperor, it seems a little cruel.

...The last time he promised Ning Juan to try again, Ning Juan was very gentle.

It doesn't really hurt.

Lu Qingze's ears were a little hot, but his face became serious: "Let go."

Begging for joy was rejected, Ning Wan kept wagging his tail and drooping, and reluctantly let go of Lu Qingze's ankle.

After being separated from Lu Qingze for half a year, he wanted to lick every inch of Lu Qingze's skin and leave his own breath on him.

If it weren't for the fact that the front line was too dangerous, and the capital needed someone to sit in, how could he be willing to be separated from Lu Qingze? Even if he saw each other every day in the palace, he couldn't wait to hold Lu Qingze in his arms and not let him go.

They only had a three-year goodbye.

Lu Qing saw Ning Juan's whole body sinking down again, and was a little speechless.

He was just dragged on his ankle and forced to lift his leg, which was uncomfortable, and it wasn't a refusal.

Ning Guoguo, what about you?

Lu Qing was silent for a moment, not wanting to make Ning Juan unhappy before he left Beijing, he raised his foot and stepped between his legs: "It's getting late, there's not much time tonight."

Ning Juan's breath sank, his scalp was numb, and his muscles trembled slightly: "...Teacher."

Lu Qing slowly rolled his feet and looked at him with half-squinted eyes, like a cat that was making fun of people: "Or, your Majesty intends to rest?"

Lu Qing soon regretted it.

Taking the initiative to seduce this kind of thing, his spirit can bear it, but his body can't bear it.

The sound of rain outside the window was shrill, the night splashed into the house, a bright candle danced quietly on the table, and was vaguely reflected in the gauze curtain.

After a long while, the back of Lu Qingze's hand hung down weakly, and when he was about to slide out of the bed, he was suddenly held by another hand, and pressed his fingers back together.

It was cold and rainy outside, but Lu Qing felt that he was about to melt.

Before he fell asleep, he lowered his head into Ning Juan's arms, his voice hoarse: "Jiwei, I'll be waiting for you in the capital."

Ning Yan grabbed his hand and replied in a low voice, "Yeah."

Seeing that Lu Qingze still refused to sleep, he was both happy and helpless: "You don't have to send me out tomorrow, just sleep."

Lu Qing's eyelids sank, and in extreme exhaustion, he closed his eyes.

But with something in his heart, Lu Qing hadn't slept for too long.

Even though I was a little indulgent last night, my body was still uncomfortable, but it was only a little later than Ning Juan. When he woke up, Ning Juan had already ordered his troops. Before His Majesty left, there were still hundreds of officials who were on the city tower.

Lu Qing wanted to see him off in person, changed his clothes, and rushed over.

When they arrived, the officials who were seeing them off just came down. Ning Juan glanced over the tens of thousands of soldiers neatly below the tower, and was about to leave when he saw Lu Qingze coming, a little surprised: "Didn't you say you don't have to come to see them off? Why are you still here?"

Lu Qing calmly faced the gazes of countless people, walked to Ning Juan's side, and stared at him.

Ning Juan changed into his usual black dark clothes, wearing soft armor, a sword on his waist, and his cloak fluttering in the morning wind. Compared with the noble temperament of Tian Huang, he was a little more heroic and sassy. Such as torches, heroic.

Filled with the infinite vitality of this age.

Lu Qing suddenly felt that it was not a matter of life and death for Ning Juan to go to the southwest to fight the rebellion.

He was no longer so worried, stepped forward, and showed a faint smile: "I still want to see you again."

The morning light ushered in from the sky, and Lu Qing's eyes were soft and bright.

Ning Juan had never seen Lu Qingze's love for him so clearly in Lu Qingze's eyes.

It is pure love between them.

His chest swayed, he stared at Lu Qing for a long time, and suddenly raised his cloak.

In the countless sight lines under the city and above the city wall, as well as in the shocked sight of the officials beside the battlements, the flying cloak unfolded, Lu Qingze's line of sight was drowned in black, and the whole was blocked under the cloak.

Immediately, his lips became hot.

Ning Juan lowered his head, hid in his cloak, and kissed him quietly.
