From eunuch to emperor

"The queen mother ordered me and the second princess to go to Yanmen Pass. The government will be presided over by Lao Zhuguo and assisted by six ministers."

Di Yuwei's voice was clear and clear, and it spread throughout the court hall of the Daming Palace, and all the ministers could hear it clearly.

Di Xingwan glanced at the ministers in the hall, everyone had suspicious expressions on their faces.

It was obvious that they were puzzled by this sudden order.

Di Xingwan said: "My lords, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the battle on the front line. The queen mother ordered the two of us to go to Yanmen Pass for other reasons."

People all over the world are paying attention to the battle at Yanmen Pass, if they lose the battle, everyone will be in bad luck.

The two princesses are going to go to Yanmen Pass suddenly, and everyone is inevitably suspicious.

No one asked about the specific matter, this was the order of the empress to the two princesses, and it was inconvenient for them to ask.

"Old Zhuguo, can you speak to the ministers?"

Seeing that the ministers were silent, Di Yu turned his head and said to Gongsun Yun.

Gongsun Yun stood up and said to the ministers: "My lords, the Holy Majesty has just sent a letter back and needs two princesses to go to Yanmen Pass. I don't know what the specifics are."

"But there is no need to worry about the frontline battle. King Wu and His Majesty are both there, and there was good news a few days ago."

"King Wu unsealed an army in the ghost clan. This army was Long Yuan's subordinate 400 years ago. General Yu Wenkai once fought with Long Yuan and fought against the ghost clan."

This news is only circulated in a small area, and most people don't know it.

Gongsun Yun said it today in order to stabilize the morale of the army and tell the ministers not to panic.

"Yongyeon's general? 400 years?"

Bai Anning, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, asked in shock.

They heard that the ghost fetus has lived for two hundred years, which is unbelievable, but there are actually people who have lived for four hundred years?

Di Yu said slightly: "That's right, the army led by veteran general Yu Wenkai is called the Demon Dragon Camp, which specializes in killing ghosts."

"Don't worry about the battle on the front line. Your lords are in the capital to help Laozhu Kingdom and the Six Departments handle the government affairs well, so that the front line has a stable rear."

After everyone was convinced of the news, they were surprised and their spirits lifted a lot.

"Let me just say, the ghost clan has 400-year-old monsters, and we have them too."

Xu Ming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, smiled happily.

The ministers of the DPRK and China agreed one after another, saying that the Great Zhou had a national destiny and would not lose to the ghost clan.

Seeing that the minister's spirits improved slightly, Di Yu said: "We will leave tomorrow, and from today onwards, Laozhu Kingdom and the Six Departments will assist the government. Ministers, please go back."

All the ministers saluted and exited the Daming Palace, while Gongsun Yun and the six ministers stayed behind.

"Lao Zhuguo, my lords, let's go to the Imperial Study Room to hand it over."

The two princesses got up, and everyone returned to the imperial study, and immediately handed over the affairs of the court.

The biggest thing now is the war in the north. The household department, the military department, and the engineering department are the big heads.

"The problem with Xixia is the defense of the northern border. The queen mother said that the ghost clan may bypass Yanmen Pass and invade from the direction of Xixia Yuncheng. Donna has already stationed troops in Yuncheng, but judging from the battle situation at Yanmen Pass, Tangna may not be able to defend it."

"So, it is best to send more troops to strengthen the defense of the northern border of Xixia."

Di Xingwan showed the Queen's will to Gongsun Yun.

Gongsun Yun shook his head and said: "We must first ensure the strength of Yanmen Pass for the troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As for Xixia... just recruit troops on the spot."

Wang Wei, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, agreed with Gongsun Yun's opinion, saying: "This matter is related to the life and death of the Xixia people themselves. They must contribute their own efforts. It is better to recruit troops on the spot."

Both of them thought so, and Di Xingwan also agreed, saying: "The Nanliang side is temporarily stable, and several rebellions have been suppressed, please trouble Lao Zhuguo."

It was Gongsun Ming who stayed behind in Nanliang, so Di Xingwan said so.

Gongsun Yun said: "Princess, don't worry, Nanliang will be stable."

After handing over other matters one after another, Di Yuwei and Di Xing returned to the palace in the evening to prepare things.

The next morning, Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan set off for Yanmen Pass in a carriage.

Gongsun Yun and the court officials did not see him off. This is the meaning of the two princesses, telling them to keep quiet and do their own thing well to stabilize the government.

...

Yanmen Pass.

A letter eagle landed at the pass, and the soldiers in charge of intelligence immediately sent the secret letter to Wu Xiangyun.

Now, the highest general at Yanmen Pass is Wu Xiangyun, who is in charge of all military affairs.

After opening the secret letter, Wu Xiangyun felt puzzled after reading it.

The words in the letter are very simple: Immediately submit it to the sage, Taoist priest Xuanzhen said that there is no other way.

These words were endless, and Wu Xiangyun was confused.

"what happened?"

Seeing Wu Xiangyun's puzzled face, Zhao Ying walked over to read the secret letter, and asked, "What do you mean? How did you get involved with Taoist Xuanzhen?"

They all know the three Taoists Xuanzhen, they are said to be descendants of the ancestors of the Long family.

"I don't know, the princess ordered us to give it to the Holy Majesty, but the Holy Majesty is still outside the pass."

Wu Xiangyun scratched his head, the Empress and Long Chen were both in the grassland, it was unrealistic for Feiying to pass on the letter, so I had to send someone to deliver the letter.

"Find three waiting riders and send them to the Holy Majesty immediately."

Wu Xiangyun ordered, and Zhao Ying immediately found three mature and prudent waiting riders, and immediately sent the secret letter out of Yanmen Pass.

...

Ice Field, Army Camp north of Storm Canyon.

Wearing animal skin clothes, Wu Sheng walked in the barracks and watched Qin Hao, the general who broke the formation, train the army.

These [-] ghost soldiers are Wu Sheng's most elite army, under his direct command, after a short training, their combat effectiveness has recovered.

Before freezing, these ghost soldiers were not injured, so they recovered quickly.

A woman came in from the north gate of the camp. The soldiers guarding the gate saw a woman and immediately took her to see Wu Sheng.

"Meet your majesty."

The woman saluted respectfully.

Wu Sheng ignored it and continued to watch the army training.

People from the ghost clan, especially those from the Moon Palace, are respectful to Wu Sheng's appearance but disrespectful, and this woman is the same, so Wu Sheng doesn't bother to talk to her.

"The Queen and the Holy Son have led [-] troops, and they are coming to the barracks soon."

The woman stood for a long time, Wu Sheng never left the meeting, and finally had to take the initiative to speak.

Wu Sheng didn't turn his head to look at the woman, but asked coldly, "How much longer?"

The woman immediately replied: "Quickly."

Ice fields have no sun and moon, no day and night, and with their longevity, they are very insensitive to time.

Wu Sheng knew that the ghosts were like this, so he changed his words and asked: "How far is it?"

The woman replied: "More than 100 miles."

Originally, the ghosts didn't care much about the distance, but after Wu Sheng came, the concept of how many miles was introduced.

Wu Sheng continued to watch the army training. After half an hour, Wu Sheng called Qin Hao and a group of generals out of the north gate, and saw the ghost girl's sleigh cart arriving.

The ghost soldiers pulling the chariot stopped, the priest demon opened the curtain, and the ghost girl came out from the chariot, wearing a silver crystal armor with a cold demeanor.

Seeing the appearance of the ghost girl, Wu Sheng was in a good mood. What he liked was the beauty of the ghost girl, and of course the ability of the ghost girl to live forever.

"The madam has arrived."

Wu Sheng stepped forward and took the ghost girl's hand, and the ghost girl was also very happy to see Wu Sheng, and said, "Here we are, how is your side?"

The demon ordered the army to enter the barracks, and the ghost looked at his loving parents, feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

Wu Sheng and Gui Nu are true love, and the ghost fetus seems to be an accident, or even a defective product and useless waste.

"I sent Xia Feng out to find out the news, he should be back soon."

Wu Sheng calculated the time, he should be back soon.

The ghost girl said with a smile: "A mere junior, isn't your husband being too cautious?"

The two lived to be four hundred years old, Long Chen was only in his 20s, compared to him, he was indeed a proper junior.

"A lion must do his best to catch a rabbit, and a thief has some tricks."

The two entered the barracks and stayed in a large igloo.

Outside the storm canyon, the three of Wei Ying rode horses to the outside of the canyon.

Zhu Zhen looked at the canyon and said, "I wonder if General Xia has returned?"
