Chapter 315 The prince guards the gate of the country, and the king dies
Ma's Mansion
Although Ma Jin spoke to comfort the indignant Yan Yuan, he disagreed with Yan Yuan's thoughts and even sneered at him.
Indeed, Yan Yuan's starting point is good. The young man was passionate and wanted to join the battlefield and kill the enemy to serve the country. It was very exciting and motivating. Without considering anything else, Ma Jin wanted to applaud him.
But then again, you can't think too one-sidedly about things. Although Yan Yuan's move was kind, he was still too immature.
Although the people in the frontier are also invaded by Mongolian cavalry, the losses are not much under the protection of the border troops.
Moreover, since a major war more than ten years ago, the two sides have truceeded and negotiated peace, started border trade, and stabilized the border. Even if there were occasional small wars, they were still controlled in the local area, and both sides would not easily break up.
………
But when Yan Yuan went to the frontier to join the army, it added a lot of unreasonable variables to this matter.
Not to mention the other person, Yan Yuan is the prince of a great man. He ran to the frontier to fight for a small Mongolian cavalry. He won the victory without any glory, but if something happened, then the face of a great man would be there.
If Yan Yuan comes back alive, it will be easy to deal with even if he loses, but if he dies in battle.
The prince is a mortal enemy, how can the court not take revenge?
Can Emperor Jingkang endure the pain of losing his son and remain indifferent?
Even if Emperor Jing Kang had many sons, Yan Yuan would not feel sorry for his death. Moreover, the court would endure this matter for the sake of the overall situation. But don’t forget that Yan Yuan also has a favorite brother who is in charge of the reserve position.
If Yan Yi ascended the throne, would he not avenge his brother?
Even if Yan Yi was the emperor and empress, he had a lot of thoughts, and the mother and daughter of Xian Concubine and Yan Yan had to instigate him to avenge his son.
Yan Yi is a son and a brother, can he withstand the pleas of his mother and sister?
Yan Yuan accidentally said that he was fine if he died, but it was very likely that the two countries would meet each other and never stop. Countless people were involved, and the frontiers were devastated and displaced.
Not to mention that if the prince Yan Yuan was captured by someone, the matter would be even more serious. The faces of the royal family and the court were dragged under the feet by the Mongols, Yan Yuan could not recover even if he committed suicide. It is very likely that even Yan Yi would be implicated in taking the crown.
………
Of course, Ma Jin did not curse Yan Yuan's defeat, was killed, and captured, but who can guarantee that Yan Yuan, who had just reached sixteen, would not have any accidents?
It would be fine if the above assumptions that Ma Jin had not appeared. Yan Yuan went out to practice and got the reputation of being a hero when he came back. But if one of them appeared, it would be a great event.
Ma Jin could see the consequences, and neither Jing Kang, Yan Yi, Yan Yan and others would be unaware of this, and even Yan Yuan himself might understand it.
However, the boy's own pride does not allow him to retreat to fear these things.
………
"My father said that if I wanted to enter the military, I would choose the two imperial guards, the four camps in the north and south, but I wouldn't let me go to the border. The fourth brother said that I could help him even if I stayed in the capital."
Yan Yuan was persuaded by Ma Jin for a while, and most of the resentment on his face faded away. In fact, he knew that his move was a bit nonsense, but how could the young man look at it from the perspective of an adult?
When Ma Jin heard his tone, he could see that Yan Yuan's attitude was a little soft. He felt relieved and smiled.
"Your Highness, don't be too upset. You are just sixteen now, and you will have a long time to go. Now you have been practicing in the army for a few years. When you learn a lot of good skills in the future, it will not be too late to work harder."
…………
Because of Yan Yan's relationship, Yan Yuan was very close to Ma Jin and often ran to Ma Jin. The uncle and the other two got along very well.
After all, there is no close friend around Yan Yuan. Emperor Jing Kang and Concubine Xian are old and have no topics with Yan Yuan. His biological brother Yan Yi is too busy, so he dare not disturb him.
My sister Yan Yan is idle, but the two are of the same age, so they are somewhat taboo. The rest of my brother Yan Jie is just a little carrot, and Yan Yuan doesn't like to pay attention to him at all.
As for those princes, although they are half-brothers, Yan Yuanzhen has no relationship with them. In contrast, Ma Jin, the future brother-in-law, has become Yan Yuan's rare relative and close friend.
If you have any worries in your daily life, Yan Yuan also likes to nag Ma Jin and resolve the knot in his heart.
For example, Ma Jin knew that this kid fell in love with the eldest lady of the young master Hu family of the Guanglu Temple. The two young girls had met in private, and they felt good about each other and often wrote letters to each other.
However, Ma Jin always felt that Hu Shaoqing had already known about this, and probably had acquiesced privately. Even Emperor Jing Kang knew about it, but he kept Yan Yuan in the dark. This silly boy thought he had hidden it well.
………
Now Yan Yuan felt a little bored when he saw that even Ma Jin agreed with Emperor Jingkang and others' actions. He lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.
"Brother-in-law, do you think I'm too willful in this matter?"
Ma Jin was very happy to see this. Ma Jin was very familiar with Yan Yuan's appearance. He had seen it many times before, and it was typical symptoms of puberty confusion.
Ma Jin understood that it was his close sister again... his husband was here!
"Why did Your Highness say that?" Brother-in-law Ma's face had a fatherly smile.
"I ignored the overall situation of the court and insisted on going to the frontier to kill the Mongolian Tartars, which made my father angry, and my fourth brother and fifth sister annoyed. This is not willfulness, what is it." Yan Yuan looked depressed.
"This is a bad statement."
Ma Jin stood up with a passionate look on his face.
It is good to be a young man, but he cannot be without vitality. Ma Jin has to motivate his brother-in-law and not to let him be discouraged from now on.
"In my opinion, Your Highness's move proves that His Highness has the heroic and bloody nature passed down from the Daqian royal family.
I remember that Emperor Taizu fought east and west, ended the power of the princes of the Song and Yuan dynasties, unified the world, and established our Daqian for 200 years, and his achievements shook the world.
There is also Emperor Pingzong Houwu who attacked Mongolia in the north and spread the five barbarians in the south, causing the surrounding countries to surrender to our power of Daqian. He did not dare to be disrespectful for hundreds of years.
The former emperor Fengwen, and was brave and brave, killed all the Japanese pirates and barbarians who dared to invade our territory. He also went to sea to attack the enemy's nest directly, causing the small country to scatter the souls of the king and his ministers to scatter and quickly submitted their respects.
Also, your father, in the early years of the throne, the Mongolian attacked, and the emperor rejected the opposition and sent troops to meet the enemy. He succeeded in one battle, and the enemy who invaded was almost wiped out. The Mongolians have not yet recovered their vitality.
My Daqian now has a prosperous era, and the country is rich and the people are strong. It is precisely because of the wise kings of this generation who are brave and brave, they will never bow their heads and will fight against the invading enemies, so that they dare not spy on our territory.
As the saying goes, the prince guards the country and the king dies in the country. Your Highness, your actions today are worthy of the great glory left to you by the ancestor of Daqian."
After Ma Jin's words, he said that he was excited and his face flushed, even Ma Jin himself was a little excited.
Peng
Yan Yuan slapped the table, gritted his teeth, and shouted loudly to Ma Jin.
"My brother-in-law is right. The prince guards the country and the king dies in the country. I will be scared to death by mere difficulties. How could Yan Yuan dare to say that he is the descendant of Taizu in the future?
I will kneel outside the imperial study room and ask my father to go to the frontier to kill the enemy. If my father doesn’t agree for a day, I won’t get up for a day.”
After saying that, without waiting for Ma Jin to react, he turned around and went out. It seemed that he was going to the Imperial Study Room.
Ma Jin: “………”
