The Child Emperor

The King of the East Sea pushed the door and broke in, glanced at Jin Chunzhong, waved his hand impatiently, and Jin Chunzhong quickly exited.

Have you heard? The Huns and the Great Chu went to war.

Han Ruzi nodded, Who did you listen to?

Uncle sent someone to inform me that the messenger has just arrived, and the situation is urgent... Has the Jin family's boy entered the city? Did you let him go?

Han Ruzi nodded again, and for a moment, he thought that the King of the East Sea and Jin Chunzhong had negotiated to deceive him, and immediately overturned this idea. He did not believe in the King of the East China Sea, but he believed in Jin Chunzhong more.

What are you still thinking about? King Donghai was a little furious. He had endured it for a long time, and finally showed his original temper, Da Chu belongs to the two of us. If we are attacked by the Huns, we will have nothing. Chu's life and death, do you know how she did it?

Um?

She is going to send Shangguan Xu to the northern border to fight the Huns. Of course, on the surface, Shangguan Xu took the initiative to ask for orders and said a lot of high-sounding words.

Why did the queen mother let her brother leave the capital? Han Ruzi didn't understand very well. There are not many people who the queen mother can really trust. Although Shangguan Xu is weak, she is one of the most important dependencies of the queen mother.

Not only Shangguan Xu, but also the three uncles of the pseudo-emperor. I don't know who was harassing them, and they all wrote letters and volunteered to join the army to fight the Huns. The king of Donghai blushed with anger, The queen mother has been waiting for this day, she has long been waiting for this day. Even if it's calculated.

Han Ruzi understood that Shangguan Xu and the uncles of the current emperor made a gesture for all the foreign relatives. Cui Hong was originally the commander of the fight against the Huns and returned to the capital privately. Now the frontier war is unfavorable, and he is the most responsible. If he wants to restore his reputation , it is necessary to imitate the practice of Shangguan Xu et al.

Your uncle...

What can he do? He can only submit a letter to fight, or he will be drowned by the saliva of the world. It is said that the champion Hou also submitted a letter. It must have been the Queen Mother who asked him to do so. If the Northern Army goes to war, my uncle will have nothing to do. I refused. King Donghai snorted heavily, he hated the Queen Mother more than he hated Han Ruzi, We can't wait any longer, it's our two responsibility to defend the Great Chu Jiangshan, and there's still time to depose the Queen Mother, wait for you to regain the throne. , just in time to fight the Huns.

Things were all over, but Han Ruzi still didn't make a decision right away. After thinking for a while, he said, Mr. Cui sent a messenger, why didn't anyone notify me?

It's such a time, you actually care about such a trivial matter? King Donghai blushed even more with anger.

The military law is like this. I have to know why the left and right generals did not report to me in time.

Han Ruzi got up and was about to go outside, but the East Sea King reached out to stop him, shook his head and said, Jin Chunbao wants to come to inform you, I said I will come, so... I am here to report the situation to you.

Han Ruzi accepted this statement, but was not satisfied, Jin Chunbao shouldn't...

What's the matter with you? The problem now is not Jin Chunbao, it's the queen mother! It's the queen mother! King Donghai raised his fist, as if he was going to pounce on him and hit him twice, so that Han Ruzi would wake up.

Let's set off early tomorrow. Han Ruzi said that he really couldn't wait any longer. Without Yang Feng's guidance, he had to make his own decision.

There are many dreams in the night, let's go now. The King of the East Sea couldn't wait.

It's already dark, so I can't go.

I asked, many of your subordinates are fishermen by the lake. They can sail at night without too many people. Three or four boats and a dozen people are enough. If you start now, even if you walk slowly, Tomorrow morning, I will be at the river too. It's not too late, I know you don't believe in the Cui family, but I'm already in your hands, and I don't even have a guard by my side, what else should you worry about?

Okay, summon the left and right generals and Chao Master.

The King of the East Sea immediately called for people. Since he had discussed it once before, he quickly worked out a plan. Han Ruzi mobilized most of the ships, there were 21 ships, and each ship could carry three to seven people, a total of one ship. There are more than 110 people, including outposts, central troops, and flanks...

The King of the East Sea was about to go crazy, but in front of outsiders, he couldn't be too frank and urged, so he could only keep winking at Han Ruzi.

Chao's father and son took command arrows to dispatch ships and righteous soldiers. Han Ruzi stopped Jin Chunbao and let him lead the way to see the Jin family. The King of Donghai also followed. He had decided to stay with Han Ruzi.

The Jin family were all there, and Jin Chuiduo reconciled with his father temporarily. They were discussing the important news that the second brother Jin Chunzhong had brought back from the capital. When they saw Han Ruzi coming in, they all shut up.

There was still a hint of excitement on Jin Chunzhong's face, and he lowered his head and concealed it embarrassingly.

The Huns in the north were at war with the army of Da Chu, and in front of Han Ruzi was a family who thought they were Huns.

Jin Chuiduo held the bow and looked at the two outsiders coldly.

The eldest brother Jin Chunbao broke the cold scene, Tinyhou is about to set off for the north, and he will not be able to return until tomorrow. Leave me to guard the riverside village. Second brother, you have to help me.

The Jin family was taken aback, they never thought that they would still be trusted at such a time.

For Han Ruzi, this was inevitable. The Jin family wanted to go to the grasslands to join the Huns, which had little to do with the upcoming changes in Great Chu, and was more credible than others.

He could only take away more than 100 people, and the remaining 600 volunteer soldiers had to be looked after.

The Jin family probably felt the same way. Marquis Guiyi was sitting on the stool, but stood up at this time and said unwillingly, I'll help too.

A concubine reminded in a low voice, Master Hou, this is... a death penalty.

We already have the death penalty, what are we afraid of? Marquis Guiyi scolded, looking at Han Ruzi, I understand the rules, Marquis Juan can take a hostage from the Jin family, you can choose, you can choose me. .

Having said that, Marquis Guiyi, his two sons, and three wives and concubines all looked at Jin Chuiduo.

Jin Chuiduo's face turned cold, and the maidservant was also anxious, Hey, why are you looking at Miss? How can you take her daughter as a hostage? This kind of thing is said... But Miss has already been regarded as 'Queen Empress'...

Jin Chuiduo waved the bow, and the dragonfly immediately shut up.

I'm not a hostage. Jin Chuiduo said coldly.

I don't need hostages. Han Ruzi smiled, I came here just to bid you farewell and give you a promise. In any case, I will send you to the grasslands safely.

Jin Chuiduo snorted and was about to say something sarcastic, but her father and two older brothers had already opened their mouths to express their thanks, so she had to swallow the words.

After the second watch, Han Ruzi boarded the largest fishing boat and headed north with more than 100 nominal soldiers. The King of the East Sea and Lin Kunshan were in the same boat with him. It was a big boat, but it could only accommodate seven people.

The King of the East Sea finally calmed down a little, sat on the stern, clung to the boat gang with both hands, and began to worry about his own safety, Don't worry, just row slowly.

The boaters were two middle-aged fishermen. Compared to being a soldier, this is their specialty. One of them smiled and said, Don't worry, we often fish at night, um, the wind is a bit strong tonight, it's fine, even if you fall into the water. Now, we can get you out too.

The night wind was blowing, the fishing boat swayed violently, and the King of the East Sea was pale, but he came up with the idea, and he couldn't blame others, so he had to remind again and again: If the wind is strong, slow down, and don't go too far from the shore...

It is impossible to set the posture of a general on a small boat. Han Ruzi sat opposite the King of the East Sea, and he was a little worried. Looking at the fleet behind, he couldn't help thinking, what the hell is he doing? It's just him, and these followers...

This is not the first time that Han Ruzi has developed a heart of compassion. He immediately retracted his meaningless thoughts. These people are here for the emperor. If he encounters an undecided emperor, it will be the most unfortunate thing.

The night was getting darker and darker, but the wind was getting weaker, and the lake surface was only slightly rippling. Looking out through the moonlight, the lake in the distance seemed to be higher than the boat's gang, and it still felt unsafe.

The East Sea King's expression never returned to normal, and he muttered, I've been on a real building boat, and it's very stable. It's like walking on the ground.

A soldier on the boat said in surprise: Is our boat unstable? After walking for so long, no one fell off.

Han Ruzi stood up and shouted at the back, Is there a ship left behind?

Someone at the back replied: The bottom of the boat is leaking, I can catch up later!

Water leak? The King of the East Sea hurriedly observed the boat he was on, and felt that there seemed to be problems in several places.

The punting volunteer smiled and said, Don't worry, water leakage is a common occurrence. As long as it is not serious, you can walk while scooping water. If it doesn't work, just dock.

The King of Donghai looked at Han Ruzi, I know this is my idea, but if something happens to me, my uncle will not spare you.

Han Ruzi sat down and said with a smile, It's nice to have an uncle.

King Donghai didn't have the energy to quarrel, so his eyes turned to Lin Kunshan beside Han Ruzi, What are you laughing at?

Am I laughing? Ah, I remembered the scene of panning to Dongting Lake that night, and I accidentally laughed. Unfortunately, there is no wine or music here, and the scenery of Guizi Lake is not bad, but the name is a bit tacky.

The East Sea King looked forward, Is it almost there?

I'll be there before dawn. A soldier replied.

He was right, when the fleet docked, there was just a shimmer of light in the sky, and the stars in the sky were still clearly visible.

There were twenty-one boats in total, and only thirteen arrived in the end. The other fishing boats were either traveling too slowly or leaking water to be repaired.

Han Ruzi deeply felt the difficulty of leading troops, and even the simple thing of marching was full of surprises.

Chao Hua, who was on the other boat, landed first and led more than a dozen people to the front to inquire about the news. The King of the East Sea became more and more anxious, We agreed to meet here.

Lin Kunshan shook his head and said, Master Guangding said that even if his life is handed over to him, I can rest assured.

The King of the East Sea muttered: What is your life worth...

Lin Kunshan smiled at Han Ruzi, and he didn't need to feel sorry when he handed over the unknowing King of the East Sea to the mad monk.

Chaoyang was half-rising, Chao Hua and his party came back with more people.

Looking at the crowd, Donghai King breathed a sigh of relief, and Lin Kunshan also nodded, but Han Ruzi did not have the joy of a big event.

Hey, Emperor, I've finally caught up with you.

There was a brutish cry on the water, and everyone turned around in surprise to see that it was Martha who was rowing a small boat alone.

Ma Da jumped ashore, someone called him Donkey boy, he angrily denied it, and went straight to Han Ruzi, complaining: You sent me to run errands, but you weren't waiting in Chao's fishing village, and you were not there when you arrived at the riverside village. The figure, running so far all at once, do you want me to be exhausted?

Have you seen someone? Han Ruzi asked.

On the contrary, Ma Da stopped talking. After rubbing his body for a long time, he found a letter and handed it over, Here, this is it.

Han Ruzi received the letter, no matter how curious Donghai King and Lin Kunshan looked, he took a few steps to open the letter and watched.

The letter was very short, and after reading it, his expression changed.
