Only then did Song De remember the purpose of his trip. He immediately took out the imperial edict from his arms with a serious face, raised it high above his head, and shouted in a high-pitched voice: "The empress has an edict, and Zhenbei King Yang Xun will accept it." !”
I thought that Yang Xun would immediately dismount to receive the order, but I didn't expect that Yang Xun was still sitting high on the horse.
Song De was immediately embarrassed. Yang Xun did not dismount, let alone kneel down. What did this mean, did he despise the empress?
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has a decree, you..."
"Read it, I am listening!" Yang Xun said calmly.
As a modern man, Yang Xun would naturally not be willing to ask Yang Xun to kneel in front of the imperial edict, not to mention that Yang Xun had not yet paid any attention to a mere empress.
Although Beiyan did not openly rebel, and Yang Xun was still the king of Zhenbei in Daqian, it did not mean that Yang Xun would obey her empress's orders.
"Ah, this..." Song De suddenly lost his mind. After being an eunuch for so many years, this was the first time he encountered such a situation.
However, Song De is not stupid. Yang Xun's refusal to dismount is obviously dissatisfied with the empress, but Yang Xun asking him to read the imperial edict means that Yang Xun has no plans to rebel for the time being.
In addition, Yang Xun's father Yang Huai died in southern Xinjiang, so it is impossible for Yang Xun to cooperate with the rebel King Pingnan, which would be tantamount to siding with the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Song De felt relieved. The etiquette and impoliteness no longer mattered. As long as he coaxed this man and asked him to send troops for the court, what could he do even if he didn't kneel down?
I saw Sondra opening the imperial edict and reading loudly: "The Emperor of Daqian issued an edict: King Yang Huai of Zhenbei died for the country. I am very heartbroken. His son Yang Xuntianhui is intelligent and has both civil and military skills. He is allowed to succeed to the title of King of Zhenbei. I command Northern Yan and hope that he will work hard to govern and be loyal to the country. Today, rebels are rampant and the war ahead is tense. I order him to lead an army of 100,000 Xuanjia troops to go south to fight against the traitors. I appreciate this!"
After Song De finished reading, he looked at Yang Xun expectantly.
"No more?" Yang Xun frowned.
"Back to your lord, no more." Song De was a little confused. Wasn't the imperial edict clear enough?
Yang Xun didn't say a word, and started to leave.
What kind of bullshit empress is she? She's just kidding. She won the throne with real swords and guns. Does she need to be canonized?
With just one word, he would lead a hundred thousand Xuanjia troops south to fight against the thieves. How could such a good thing happen in the world? Do you really think that you are as stupid and loyal as your father Yang Huai?
The imperial court has already tricked Bei Yan once, and wants to trick him a second time?
Although Yang Xun also wanted to kill King Pingnan to avenge his father, Beiyan was thousands of miles away from southern Xinjiang, and the battle line was too long, spanning several states in the middle.
Now that the world is in chaos, there is no guarantee that the owners of these states will not have any rebellious intentions. If these people cut off Yang Xun's retreat, Yang Xun may end up like Yang Huai!
What's more, just one hundred thousand Xuanjia troops can't defeat King Pingnan!
As for the imperial army, Yang Xun didn't trust them!
King Pingnan will fight sooner or later, but if Yang Xun wants to destroy him on his own, there is no way he will cooperate with the court!
Yang Xun's idea was to let the imperial court and King Ping Nan fight to the death to buy time for the development of Bei Yan.
Although King Pingnan is very powerful, it will take one or two years to defeat the imperial court. One or two years are enough for Yang Xun to develop his own power.
When the court decided the winner of King Pingnan, Yang Xun then sent his army southward and wiped out King Pingnan in one fell swoop!
When Song De saw Yang Xun leaving, he quickly chased after him.
"Your Majesty, please wait! Now the rebels have raised 500,000 troops and have occupied the four states of Mu, Sichuan, Feng, and Kang in the south. Almost the entire south has fallen into their hands. Your Majesty, as the Prince of Daqian , shouldn’t we help Daqian put down the rebellion?”
Yang Xun glanced at Song De, good guy, are you kidnapping me morally?
"Eunuch Song, I think you have misunderstood. I fought for my throne, not you who canonized it. I am the Zhenbei King of Beiyan, not Daqian. Besides, one hundred thousand sons of Beiyan have died in the battle. In southern Xinjiang, we Beiyan have done enough for your court!" Yang Xun said coldly.
Song De was stunned. Is Yang Xun angry about Zhao Zhengxiong?
Indeed, when Zhao Zhengxiong rebelled, the imperial court had just experienced a major defeat and had no time to take care of Beiyan's affairs. It was tantamount to abandoning Beiyan and the Yang family!
If Zhao Zhengxiong had succeeded in his rebellion, Yang Xun would be a dead man by now, and it is reasonable to be angry.
Suddenly, Song De knelt down in front of Yang Xun's horse with a plop, and said with tears: "Your Majesty, I know that the court is sorry for you, but I beg you, please help Your Majesty, she is really unhappy. Easy, now there are less than 200,000 imperial troops left, and it will be difficult to hold on to the city. If you don’t send troops, the imperial court will be in danger!"
"My lord, as long as you are willing to send troops, I will definitely repay you by working as a cow or a horse in my next life!"
Yang Xun smiled slightly and did not answer Song De, but asked: "Eunuch Song hasn't eaten yet, has he?"
Song De was slightly startled, then nodded.
"Come here, bring two baked potatoes to Eunuch Song."
Just because Yang Xun does not plan to send troops does not mean that Yang Xun is impersonal.
Song De was able to travel thousands of miles to move reinforcements, and even though he was put in this situation, he did not complain at all. He even knelt down to beg Yang Xun, which shows Song De's loyalty to the empress.
Loyal people deserve respect wherever they go!
Jiang Wei immediately took out two potatoes from his arms and handed them to Song De.
Song De looked at the roasted black potatoes in his hands and was at a loss for a moment. What kind of thing is this? Can it be eaten if it is black?
With doubts, Song De still took a bite of the potato in his hand, and his eyes widened in the next second. Although this stuff was dark, it was very fragrant!
He was indeed hungry, so he ate the potatoes immediately. Jiang Wei was afraid that he would choke, so he gave him a pot of water.
After eating and drinking, Song De looked at Yang Xun pitifully: "Your Majesty, I beg you, help your majesty. By the way, the general Li Duo who commanded the battle before has been beheaded by your majesty. The current commander is The official is your father-in-law, and Marquis Tingyang has plans!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and Yang Xun's eyes widened. He was not even married. When did he have a father-in-law?
"What are you talking about? I'm not married yet, so where can I find my father-in-law?"
"Ah? My lord, don't you know that your father Yang Huai and Tingyang Houlan Youtu are comrades-in-arms, and they love each other like brothers. When you were born, your father made a marriage promise to you, and it was Tingyang Hou's eldest son. My daughter Lan Suisui." Song De said truthfully.
"What the hell? Is there such a thing?" Yang Xun was stunned. He had never heard his father say it before.
At least Yang Xun couldn't find any information about this matter from the memory of the original owner.
But Song De didn't look like he was lying. Yang Xun believed that Song De didn't have the guts to lie to him.
Could it be that Dad burped before he could tell himself?
