Zhao Duan, who was in Bianjing at the moment, had no idea that he was already being cared for by some unjust son for no apparent reason.
At this moment, he had just received news that the few masters he had sent to protect Lao Liu had returned to Beijing.
When he heard the news at first, he couldn't believe it. Why did he suddenly come back?
At this time, the Tatars were already besieging the city.
?
They should also be protecting Lao Liu.
Why did they come back suddenly?
Is it possible...
A bad idea appeared in his mind, and he quickly called a few people over.
As soon as this person came over, his original guess was immediately confirmed!
Although these people were neatly dressed, it was obvious that they had changed after coming back. Each and every one of them had injuries more or less on their bodies. What's more, when they left, Zhao Duan clearly remembered that they were better than the concubines in the palace. The concubine’s face is tender, but now?
Good guy! There were several scars on his face, and it looked like the scars were caused by arrows passing through his face.
Zhao Duan couldn't imagine what kind of arduous battle they went through before finally returning to Bianjing alive.
At the same time, there was also a feeling of sadness in my heart, fearing that my sixth child had...
It was also because I thought too highly of him. He was only twenty-four. Even if he secretly discovered some power of his own, how could Yunzhou County alone be able to stop the Tatar army that dominated the entire Tatar grassland? Where to live?
I am afraid that if the Tatar army charges, his army of two or three big cats and kittens will be overwhelmed.
It can really block the Tatar attack there.
Now it's better, even his life has been sacrificed.
Although I don't pay much attention to this son on weekdays, he is his flesh and blood after all, and he is the child of that gentle woman.
A feeling of sadness surged up involuntarily, and his face became extremely ugly.
However, his performance confused several of the ministers!
Your Majesty, what's going on?
Why did they sigh at first when they saw him, then turned pale, shook their heads and then showed such ugly expressions.
Look around at yourself and others, there is nothing wrong with you! Why does His Majesty's face change like the paint in a dyehouse?
They had no idea that their Majesty was already thinking about how his sixth son died miserably in the army.
How many of them had narrowly escaped death, but in the end they still failed to rescue their miserable sixth son from the siege of the army. In the end, they had no choice but to return to the capital and return to their lives.
A big drama kept reappearing in Zhao Duan's mind like a slideshow, even down to some details.
Where was my sixth child cut with a machete, how much blood was spurted, and which direction he fell!
He had even imagined the scene where the Tatars cut off their heads as trophies to show off their strength!
Naturally, the few worshipers didn't know how rich their Majesty's imagination was, but looking at His Majesty's face, they knew that it might not be appropriate to stay any longer, so they thought of quickly reporting on the situation of this mission and then retreating. .
So, at that moment, someone stood up and prepared to report: "Your Majesty! This time we are going to Yunzhou County..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Duan suddenly raised his hand to stop him.
He waved his hands and said with a sad face: "You don't have to say anything. I know that you have tried your best. If Jun'er can't be saved, it's his fault. I don't blame you.
The injuries on your bodies don't look all that serious. I think you've been through a long and fierce battle this time, so you should go back and rest first.
I will make arrangements for Yunzhou County. "
After saying this, Zhao Duan couldn't help but start to fall into memories again, recalling what Lao Liu looked like when he was a child.
Although I haven’t seen him much, I still have some impressions of him. What a well-behaved child!
My father is sorry for you!
They sealed you to a desolate place like Yunzhou County, and placed so much hope on you that they didn’t even send you reinforcements, leaving you to be humiliated to death by those damn Tatars!
Father! Father will definitely avenge you in the future!
Rest in peace under the Nine Springs...
"Well……"
Hearing His Majesty say such words, several worshipers were dumbfounded, but then they understood that His Majesty might have misunderstood.
But looking at His Majesty's gnashing of teeth, they hesitated a little. Can they tell the truth now?
Will His Majesty get angry and silence them?
But...if I don't tell the truth and wait to be discovered by His Majesty, there seems to be no good end.
Sigh...it's so hard to have an imaginative monarch!
Several of the priests looked at each other and exchanged glances with each other. Finally, the priest with the most scars on his face stood up awkwardly and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Prince Yun is not dead. He is alive and well."
“Okay, okay!
I know he is not dead, so go down.
My poor prince..."
Everyone worshiped: "???"
Zhao Duan was already a little impatient. He even felt that these worshipers were all from eunuchs. Aren't they the ones who knew how to watch their actions in the past? Why are you so clueless today about whether to advance or retreat?
As they put it, of course I know that my prince is not dead! Do they still need to say this?
My emperor...eh?
Zhao Duan: "???"
Zhao Duan raised his head suddenly, looked at several people and asked in astonishment: "What did you just say?"
Several worshipers looked at each other again, and finally the one with the scar on his face whispered: "The slaves just said that Lord Yun, he is not dead, he is still alive and well."
rub!
Zhao Duan's expression changed instantly, and the grief that had just accumulated in his chest was instantly swept away, replaced by endless embarrassment.
The relationship has been turbulent for a long time. Is it something I made wrong?
Am I being sentimental? !
The worshipers watched His Majesty's expression change rapidly and remained silent for a long time. Then they cautiously called out, "Your Majesty?"
Zhao Duan suddenly woke up from the embarrassment, came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth twitched, his face darkened, and with a straight face he forced himself to calm down his embarrassing mood and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
He is the emperor, how could he be wrong?
He can't be wrong!
You can’t admit that you’re wrong!
Um! That's right! that's all!
Seeing that he had returned to normal, several priests hurriedly told everything and everything they had experienced when they went to Yunzhou County.
And Zhao Duan finally learned the true situation in Yunzhou County through their mouths.
Zhao Duan didn't pay much attention to the prosperous Yunzhou City that these worshipers said. It was just that Lao Liu had good governance skills. There were many prosperous cities in the Song Dynasty, and there was no shortage of them.
However, he was so shocked that his sixth son actually repelled the Tatar army, and he almost couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear!
That's more than 300,000 Tatar cavalry!
How on earth did Lao Liu defeat these Tatars with the soldiers and horses of a single county in his hands? !
What happened in this that I don’t know about!
Zhao Duan couldn't understand it!
I can’t even imagine how my sixth child did all this!
