In a daze, a man quietly walked to Zhao Bohu, and only one sentence woke Wei Duoyou up: "Duke, the king summons you to enter the palace to quickly discuss the plan to conquer the sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred

At this moment, both Zhao Bohu and Wei Duoyou were confused: "Yuan? Where is this with? Why are you going to fight again?

Zhao Bohu felt it was normal for him to be strange. Since the Zhou Dynasty and the King of Mu became mortal enemies, war broke out almost three to five years later, but it was usually in spring. The grassland had just thawed in spring, and the stored food and property had been consumed after a cold winter. The herdsmen could only continue to survive only when they came out to plunder. In order to protect themselves, the Zhou Dynasty also had to hold a halberd to defend themselves.

But that was spring! It was autumn now, the grassland was rich in water and grass, cattle and sheep were growing fat, and the nomadic people were fat and strong. If the war was unfavorable, it would be winter. Then the weather was cold and the logistics supply could not keep up, and the army was trapped in the snow and ice, so what should I do?

Everyone knows that autumn is not conducive to fighting with Yuqi, but King Yi of Zhou was determined to be the one who persuaded him. Zhou Gong decided to offer the head of Prince Nizixi, and felt that his back was a little tougher, so he came out to persuade him with confidence: "If Yuqi is firm and does not fight and makes up his mind to drag it to winter, then our army will be in a dilemma. It will be difficult to withdraw at that time!"

Ji Xie glanced over the wooden house on the desk, where his cousin Ji Xi was in the head, and he squinted at Duke Zhou and said, "The Duke made such a great contribution to our Zhou royal family. This time he went to war, he would go with the other person. You have always been a blessed person. Our army will definitely be able to use your power to turn bad luck into good fortune and return to the court with great victory!"

"Why, is the king going to personally expedition again?" Zhao Bohu was also shocked: "Last year, the king had just personally expeditioned and returned to victory. Now the palace has undergone a major change, and the king is exhausted. How can he bear the pain of trekking? If the king insists on going to the battle, I would like to be the commander and lead the army to the battle!"

A trace of warmth flashed through Ji Xie's eyes, and he calmed down and said, "Zi Mu, I know you are polite. But this expedition is not a trivial matter, and if you fail, you will be able to be virtuous. You need to stay and assist the prince in supervising the country and guarding Fenghao and the two capitals. The country is the most important thing, and the prince cannot live without you!"

Seeing that Zhao Bohu was still trying to argue again, Ji Xie made up his mind not to let him speak again. He stood up and said, "This time I went to the expedition, the entire Western Sixth Division was dispatched, with Duke Guo Changfu as the assistant, Qin Jun assisting, Duke Zhou as the assistant. The soldiers are very fast. After three days, I will raise my troops and ask Duke Mu to join the expedition of food and grass. Guyi has decided, so you don't have to say more!"

Duke Zhou Ding secretly complained: I will take me with me every time I go to war, because I am afraid that I will restrain the prince! I don’t know if I will be so lucky this time.

Seeing that the matter had come to this point, all the ministers could only shake their heads and sigh and retreat from the hall. However, King Yi of Zhou left Zhao Bohu and instructed alone: ​​"If we cannot defeat the army of Taiyuan this time, we will swear to return to the capital. If something goes wrong, you must protect the prince ascend the throne, and the prince's father-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zhao Bohu couldn't help but feel sad, and knelt down and cried, "King, don't say this unlucky remark before going to war. I will definitely assist the prince in supervising the country and wait for the king to return victoriously!"

Because he wanted to take Wei Duoyou to the Eastern Palace to send letters to Mr. Wei and his family, he lingered until the moon rose eastward. Zhao Bohu left the palace. Although it was autumn, the capital city felt extremely cold at night, as if it had winter in an instant. The north wind was walking fast among the trees, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, hissing the core.

Zhao Bohu looked up at the sky. The night was as dark as ink, the moon was dark, the stars were sparse, and endless darkness shrouded the sky. The street market was curfew, and the surroundings were quiet enough to hear the sound of needles.

Just as I was about to get on the bus, I suddenly heard a voice: "Zi Mu, wait!"

Seeing the visitor, Zhao Bohu was stunned: "Dude?!" He looked around and hesitated: "Do you have been waiting for me here after you scattered?"

Duke Zhou smiled bitterly and nodded. Zhao Bohu was quite shocked and calmed down: "The Duke must have something important, but it doesn't matter. If Hu really has something to do his best, he will definitely not refuse."

Duke Zhou bowed and solemnly bowed to Zhao Bohu. Zhao Bohu returned the gift: "You and I are both royal ministers, and your seniority is still above the tiger. There is no need to be like this, it's a tragic destruction for me!"

"Zi Mu is a smart man. You should know that the king went on this trip with the will of dying, right?" Zhou Gongding looked worried. The subtext is that the dead wife doesn't want to live, so don't drag the Western Sixth Division to be buried with him, he still wants to live!

Although Zhao Bohu also had the same feeling, he could not speak out and instinctively refuted: "The king is the emperor, and he will turn bad luck into good fortune and be protected by heaven; in addition, the soldiers are brave enough to take the lead, and the battlefield is unpredictable, and they can often survive in a desperate situation and turn defeat into victory. Why should the prince be so pessimistic?"

Duke Zhou waved his hand: "Is it another thing to say if I am sad or not. Zi Mu asked me to eradicate the abolished prince. Now I have done it, it's Zi Mu Jian's turn to make an appointment."

Zhao Bohu frowned: "Do you want me to come forward and leave you in Haojing?" This matter is probably difficult.

"It's not true." Zhou Gongding stroked his beard and said, "The king has made up his mind. He wants to use the hand of a sage to remove me to relieve the hatred in his heart. Others still have vitality, but I will never survive. I only hope that Zi Mu can protect my descendants' safety, I wonder if it is possible?"

His tone was almost begging, and Zhao Bohu couldn't bear it for a moment: "The Zhou family has been a noble family for generations, and the status of the dynasty is respected, not to mention that the old Duke has established a son. Don't worry, if there is any accident, I will definitely advise the prince to protect the safety of the old and young people in the Zhou Duke's Mansion."

"Thank you, Zimu." Zhou Gongding breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Bohu got in the car and felt very upset. Everyone seemed to be asking him to entrust his funeral. It was really unlucky. Why was it him? He was the queen before, but now he was the King of Yi and Duke Zhou. Does he really look so reliable?

In early November, King Yi of Zhou ordered Taishi Bu Yi to visit the parade outside Haojing City, and ordered the generals to sacrifice blood to the sky. Then, he led most of the troops of the Sixth Division of the West to run west. The army was magnificent, with flags covering the sky, and swords and armor standing in front of him, and murderous aura soaring into the sky.

Prince Ji Hu stood on the wall of Haojing and looked straight at the scene under the city, feeling very resentful: "My father never brought me with me in the expedition. It has been several years since he attacked Jingchu. I have never left this Haojing city, and I am so depressed!"

"Come on!" Wei He joked: "Which king has you seen who went to war with the crown prince? The crown prince is the foundation of the country and cannot be shaken." He shook his head in an old age, which made everyone laugh.

"By the way!" Ji Hu asked Wei Duoyou who was leaning against the wall with his head tilted: "Brother Duoyou, why don't you go to the battle with him? With your ability, you can be a general in front of the account. Isn't it a pleasure for a man to make contributions on the battlefield and win his wife and son in the future?"

"It's like accompanying the king, I won't go!" Wei Duoyou threw away the wine gourd in his hand: "Besides, I have no wife or son and I feel relaxed, and I have no worries in this world, wouldn't I be at ease?"

Zhao Bohu seemed to be inspired by this words: "Many friends, you are nineteen, and it's almost time to start a family. Since you and I have become sworn brothers, I should take care of your marriage for you. If you get married sooner, you may have some concerns, right?"

Unexpectedly, Wei Duoyou seemed to be really angry when he heard this, and blushed. He stamped his feet and snorted, and left resentful.

Sometimes when God makes trouble, there is no bottom line. As Zhao Bohu expected, King Ji Xie of Zhou Yi personally fought against the emperor with the ambition to die. The central army king flags he led were waving, with strong soldiers and horses, and all the way to the upper reaches of the Jing River, fearing that others would not know that this was the main force of the central army that King Zhou personally fought.

But such a swaying sight really scared the Rong people. Not to mention that the sway did not dare to plunder the edge of the enemy, even the bandits who had been operating on both sides of the Jing River for decades temporarily closed down and avoided them. Naturally, there was no gain in the process except for losing food and grass.

It was lost in the east corner and it was obtained in the mulberry corner. On the contrary, the Guo Gong Changfu gained a lot on the side. Somehow he actually touched the military horse farm of the silence and seized thousands of good horses in one fell swoop. You should know that in the Western Zhou Dynasty, horses were a precious strategic asset. These thousands of horses could be equipped with a cavalry regiment or at least three hundred chariots. What's more, if they were captured from the enemy, the silence was huge, and it would be impossible to launch a large-scale effective attack on the two capitals within at least two or three years.

In the early October of autumn, he went on a war, and he returned in less than a month. Zhao Bohu received the military report and calculated the days. In another three to five days, the King of Zhou would return to the capital. He had to prepare for the triumphant victory. He was preparing here in full swing, but he didn't expect another group of people to arrive from the south.

As soon as he entered the Eastern Palace, he saw the prince, and the monk burst into tears and bowed to the ground: "I am so disloyal and disrespectful, so I can't catch up with the ceremony of the Queen's funeral. I am guilty!"

Ji Hu recalled her deceased mother and was also sad. She quickly helped Fanzi up and said, "Uncle doesn't have to blame himself. Fanguo and Haojing are thousands of miles apart, and the road is blocked. It is normal for his uncle to not be able to get there. Why should he blame himself so much?"

Fan Zi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and sighed: "If I hadn't had to wait for the young girl and the hairpin, I wouldn't have set off so late. I would have been able to come soon!"

"What? Did my uncle bring his cousin this time? Could it be that he came to find a family for them?" Perhaps the atmosphere just now was too sad, Ji Hu wanted to change to a more relaxed topic.

"Well." Fanzi's expression was a little unnatural: "I heard that the king is going to return to Beijing with triumph?"

"Yes. The father's death was very rich when he went to the expedition. The tutor of Guo was the first to be the first, and the king of Qin was the assistant. The father's death had ordered him to be promoted to the throne of viscount-----"

The nephew and uncle were chatting for a while, and then the monk returned and went to the Duke Zhao's mansion to visit his daughter. Ji Huyi saw him off at the door, and he was quite puzzled: "Why did you say that your uncle brought his cousins ​​to Haojing?"
