Chapter 799 The Waiter Is Eating the Emperor's Food!
What impression did the King of England leave on everyone before he left the palace?
He was quiet, gentle, and kind.
The Duke of Anguo looked at the eldest prince in front of him, who looked a little older.
After being granted the fief of Guanzhou, he remained unknown. Just when everyone was about to forget the King of England who was guarding the northern land, he suddenly killed the Northern Rong in one fell swoop and fought with the former King of Qi for Leshan Prefecture, becoming the first king to be granted two prefectures since the establishment of the dynasty.
After the rebellion of the rebel king, he immediately sent troops to attack, captured the rebel prince, drove back tens of thousands of invading troops, and annihilated his city twice.
Since the war began, he has taken care of civilians and accommodated refugees from Xizhou.
There is also Qishan Prefecture, which has been hit by drought for two consecutive years.
Many people fled to the north and were accepted by the King of England.
His reputation for benevolence spread throughout the world.
In the court, some people began to speak up for the King of England.
The originally low-key King of England has transformed himself into a popular candidate for succession.
Military merits and civil affairs.
Compared with him, the other princes' insignificant achievements were far inferior.
His Majesty summoned him to the capital, and the emperor summoned him repeatedly.
It seemed to indicate something.
People who were friendly with the Duke's Mansion and his disciples and old friends wrote to him to inquire about his intentions.
After all, the King of Wu was his son-in-law.
What Pan Guogong had never expected was that the King of Ying chose a time suitable for a secret talk, and came to visit him with a light cavalry, and his every word was about the war to suppress the rebellion.
Before leaving, he asked him politely and courteously, saying that he had been away from the capital for a long time, and was unfamiliar with the customs of the capital, so he might not be polite to communicate with others. He also asked the Duke to tell him what was popular in the capital recently and what taboos were there in the various mansions.
An Guogong was stunned for a moment, and then politely pointed to a personal attendant to send to the King of Ying.
He said that this person was familiar with the various mansions in the capital. If His Royal Highness the King of England could use him, he could keep him by his side. If he felt that this person was useless, he could just send him back to the Duke's Mansion.
Duke Anguo personally escorted the King of England out of the room.
He took a careful look at the people waiting outside.
His eyes swept across the guards and fell on a man dressed as a scholar.
The scholar was wearing a crescent-white robe and stood sideways.
He put his hands behind his back and looked up at the moon.
He seemed to have heard something and turned his head.
His eyes first fell on the King of England, and his smile was light and warm.
Then he looked into his eyes.
There was no surprise, no panic, but peace and leisure.
He bowed from a distance, and his appearance was standard and there was no fault to be found.
Duke Anguo laughed.
He guessed that this was Mr. Yan, who wrote for the King of England and had a long spiritual relationship with him.
Suddenly, a small head popped out of the carriage window.
The chubby little face, covered with a layer of light moonlight, became even whiter and tenderer.
The eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Mr. Yan.
When looking at the King of England, he smiled and showed two rows of cheerful little white teeth.
The eyes, which were also full of stars, were about to turn around, but Mr. Yan pointed a finger at his forehead and gently pressed it back.
The Duke of Anguo compared the ages.
He silently said in his heart: Yan Jiajun, General Yan, and Yan Xiaoer.
"Father, what did the King of England say to you?"
Looking at the old man who was also hiding and suddenly appeared.
The smile that just appeared on the face of the Duke of Anguo disappeared.
Corrected: "It's His Highness."
"I know, father. What did His Highness say? Did he want to win over father?"
Duke Anguo looked at him for a while and asked, "Why are you here?"
"The Yan family army suddenly formed a battle array. I sent someone to inquire and found out that the King of England, uh, His Highness the King of England had come. I also found out that His Highness the King of England was coming to visit you, and Yan Xiaoer followed him. I secretly rode a fast horse to take a detour, but I didn't expect to be one step slower than them."
Panda muttered unwillingly: "They didn't even rest in the middle of the journey, and their pace was so fast."
"Without military orders, they left their posts without permission." Duke Anguo looked up: "Come here, twenty military sticks!"
Panda's eyes widened, looking at his old father in disbelief.
"Father, it's not, I..." He looked at the guards who strode forward without hesitation, and skillfully held his arms and dragged him back. "Father, Yan Xiaoer is here too. He's also gone AWOL! I saw him. He's in the car, in the King's car! Father!"
"It's His Highness!" Duke Anguo corrected again in a low voice.
Unfortunately, Pan Zheng couldn't hear it.
After a while, the sound of "pa pa pa" came.
Duke Anguo sighed softly.
He ordered: "Send Master Zheng back."
...
In the carriage.
King Ying and Yan Huaiwen sat opposite each other.
In the middle was a low table, with seasonal fruits exuding a sweet fruity fragrance. A hand-sewn book was spread out, the paper was slightly yellow, and it was neatly gridded and filled with small characters.
"Uncle, look, I really practiced calligraphy. Although it's an account book, I wrote every stroke of the word. The content is not important, don't you think?"
The King of Ying smiled and said, "Teacher, please relax your requirements occasionally. Xiaoer has been leading troops outside, and she has not forgotten the homework assigned by the teacher. It is rare."
Yan Huaiwen said calmly, "Don't indulge her, my prince. I asked her to return to supervise the construction of equipment in the letter. Do you know how she replied?"
"How?" The King of Ying was curious. He really hadn't read this letter.
"She actually said that the letter was lost in Jiuxiao and she didn't see it!" Yan Huaiwen smiled, but soon suppressed it.
The King of Ying turned his head to look at Xiaoer.
Yan Yu looked at him innocently.
The King of Ying coughed lightly and said against his will, "Maybe Jiuxiao accidentally lost it on the way. It's inevitable. The pigeons of the Xizhou Army often lose letters."
Yan Yu: "Yes, yes, yes, sometimes the pigeons in Xizhou even lose themselves."
King Ying: "Really? Do they lose a lot?"
Yan Yu: "Quite a lot. There are too many birds in the sky at this time of year. Maybe they will be caught and eaten."
"Oh, then Jiuxiao should also be careful. There are still some birds of prey bigger than it." The prince looked worried.
"Jiuxiao is fine!" Yan Yu paused: "Well, but what the prince said makes sense. Jiuxiao may have been harassed by these birds of prey in the air and lost the letter."
Yan Huaiwen rubbed his eyebrows.
King Ying sided with Xiaoer, what could he do?
"Even if the letter is really lost." Yan Huaiwen's tone became heavier: "I'm telling you in person now, will General Yan disobey the order?"
"No, no!" Yan Yu whispered: "But uncle, Xiaoer has no official position, so the military order cannot punish me, right?"
The King of England chimed in again: "Yes, Xiaoer is a commoner, and it is because Huai'an is busy with official duties that Xiaoer has taken on such a heavy burden for his father. Xiaoer is sensible and filial."
Yan Huaiwen's expression slowed down: "Duke Anguo has steadily advanced and gradually conquered the lost cities. There are not many Western Rong wandering in the interior of the country. Only the remnants can be cleaned up, and the exchange of farmland with the people can also be handed over to others. "
Yan Yu responded aggrievedly: "Does it count as the credit of my Yan family army?"
The King of England couldn't bear it anymore, "Why not? It's the credit of you two, and I remember it! Sir, I know you are worried about Xiaoer and don't trust her to lead the army alone. I have the same thoughts, but Xiaoer, she is not like an ordinary child. She is a young eagle and will eventually spread her wings and soar into the sky!"
The King of England's eyes swept over Xiaoer's rough fingers and palms.
Yan Huaian left for a long time, and Xiaoer still led the Yan family army very well.
"Xiaoer, I will make an exception today and reward you with a small flag. Are you willing?"
The King of England did not make a sudden decision, but seriously considered it, but for various reasons, he never made a decision.
"I do! I do! I do!" Yan Yu screamed in surprise, and the sound almost overturned the roof of the car.
"Hahahaha! Thank you for the reward, Your Highness! Thank you, Your Highness! You are so kind! I will be a flag bearer now, hahahaha, I will also eat the emperor's food!" (End of this chapter)
