Seventy-Sixty-Five: Confused Monarchs and Ministers
Yin Ziqi was blocked by An Qingxu before he could speak, but he came here to advise An Qingxu not to act willfully, at this time, the Tang Dynasty soldiers were approaching the city, and the situation in Dayan was not as prosperous as it was at the beginning. However, how could he say this? Tell An Qingxu directly, the current Dayan is already in decline? With An Qingxu's perverse character, it is strange that he must immediately burst into a rage, let alone discuss important military affairs.
"Tang Bing tried to break the heart of my Great Yan Army with cunning, and the minister is here to remind Your Majesty that you must not let it succeed!"
An Qingxu patiently did not have a seizure, waiting for Yin Ziqi to tell the real purpose of this.
Yan Zhuang said:
"General Yin's words are very incredible, Your Majesty is wise and powerful, how can he let the Tang people succeed? The old man only reminded the general that he had to plan a foolproof plan to retreat the Tang soldiers!"
Yin Ziqi sighed secretly, and secretly scolded Yan Zhuang for misleading the country. But now Yan Zhuang seems to have won the sacred heart, and if he tears his face with him at this time, it will do more harm than good to the current situation.
"Yan Xianggong, please listen to Yin's words, hold Luoyang, and force the Tang soldiers back, there are two ways. First, delay time with the help of strong cities. Second, the elite troops of Hebei were transferred to the south. In this way, it has become a situation of internal and external attacks from the north and south, and the Tang soldiers will not be defeated!"
His plan is to stick to Luoyang for a long-term plan, on the one hand, most of the supplies of the Tang soldiers come from Guanzhong, the supply line is long, and the longer the time drags on, the greater the consumption. On the contrary, Hanjiacang in Luoyang City has food that cannot be eaten for more than ten years, as long as the soldiers are sufficient, he can be sure to defend the city until he is old.
Under the advantages of the other, it is not easy for Tang Bing to easily break the city. The most important thing now is to reinvigorate the morale of the army and clear the panic of the court.
Yin Ziqi is sure of the former, but the latter is beyond his ability and authority. The only thing that can be relied on is An Qingxu and solemnity.
However, looking at what An Qingxu and Yan Zhuang did, he didn't think that he would let his plan be implemented smoothly.
"What should Yin Qing do here? This plan is good, it is better to draw up a specific article, so that I can make a decision after discussing with Yan Xianggong......
He was upset when he looked at Yin Ziqi now, so that he wanted to send him away with a few words, but he was only halfway through the words, but he heard Yin Ziqi say loudly:
"The situation is urgent, and there is no room for slow discussion, the minister has put the plan into writing, and now I will ask Your Majesty to take a look!"
After that, Yin Ziqi took out a silk book from the leather bag on his waist and offered it with both hands.
An Qingxu didn't know many words, and as soon as he heard that he was going to read the official document, he felt that his temples hurt, he looked at Yan Zhuang, and then he couldn't bear it and said:
"Yan Xianggong took a look first, and thought it was okay, so he said and listened to me!"
Unexpectedly, Yin Ziqi insisted on his own opinion.
"It's a matter of survival, please ask Your Majesty to ...... immediately"
Syllable!
An Qingxu finally broke out in anger, slapped the royal case fiercely, and scolded:
"I don't need you to point fingers at how I do things, and I have lost all the responsibility of the elite, and I haven't figured it out with you yet. What's the matter, now you're thinking about it again?"
Seeing this, Yan Zhuang hurriedly pretended to persuade An Qingxu to extinguish the fire.
"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, General Yin is also a public heart, but he is a little anxious when he speaks....."
An Qingxu glared at Yan Zhuang angrily.
"You don't have to mix mud with him, I know it in my heart!"
This rebuke really pierced Yin Ziqi's heart like a dagger, he closed his eyes in pain, all of this is irrefutable, only by holding Luoyang and forcing the Tang soldiers to retreat can he be ashamed.
An Qingxu saw that Yin Ziqi was silent, knowing that he had poked at his weakness, his anger was vented, and half of his liver fire was immediately gone.
"Well, I said that as long as you can be faithful, even if you are at fault, I may not be punished!"
"Your Majesty!"
Yin Ziqi was speechless, and even his voice became trembling. Originally, he wanted to persuade An Qingxu not to accept the tricks thrown out by the Tang soldiers, because once he admitted that the head was the emperor of Daxing, the morale of the people in the army and the opposition would be extremely serious.
"I know that you are trying to persuade me to deny the remains of Emperor Daxing. But ask yourself, how can you, as the Son of Man, endure it?"
As he spoke, An Qingxu pretended to raise his hand to wipe away his tears, and howled twice like thunder.
Yin Ziqi knew that it was impossible for him to persuade An Qingxu to change his mind, so he had to sigh secretly.
"But in this way, it will bring immeasurable variables to the defense of the city!"
In this regard, An Qingxu seems to be very optimistic.
"Is Yin Qing too timid, Luoyang is a strong city, and the soldiers are good enough to eat, although the Tang soldiers are under the city. However, as you said, as long as the elite soldiers of Hebei Province go south, they will die without a place to bury!"
Yin Ziqi said in his heart, if fighting a war is as simple as he said, then what is so difficult? But in the long run, it is indeed this trend, and I don't know how to refute it for a while.
Yan Zhuang took the opportunity to say again:
"General Yin should not be distracted, concentrate on Luoyang, and other matters will be handled by the political affairs hall. Could it be that General Yin doesn't believe in the political affairs hall?"
Yin Ziqi really doesn't believe in the political affairs hall, this political affairs hall is like a solemn backyard, black and smoky, how can it look like the center of the world.
"Your Majesty, Da Xi Xianggong asks to see you!"
When the three monarchs and ministers were in a stalemate, a eunuch suddenly entered the palace to report, and Da Xixun asked to see him.
Da Xixun, as the right servant of Shangshu, has the false name of the prime minister, but he has no power in his hands. However, in order to encompass the Tang Dynasty's subordinates, Da Xixun must stay in the political hall, which is also for the world to see.
An Qingxu made no secret of his disgust and contempt for Da Xixun.
"This old fox, I'm rushing to see me today, it's definitely not a good thing, let him in!"
Not long after, Da Xixun appeared in the hall with a handful of old bones.
"The right servant of the minister's book shoots Da Xi Xun to see that His Majesty the Emperor is safe!"
"That's it, that's it, they're all my important ministers, you don't need to make this false courtesy, let's say, what's the matter with me?"
"Minister, minister......"
I saw Da Xixun's face flushed, and he stammered for a while before he said a word.
"The minister heard that someone made rumors, slandered the ministers, colluded with the Tang Dynasty, colluded, the ministers, the ministers had nowhere to argue, so they had to come and ask Your Majesty to defend the ministers!"
An Qingxu originally thought that he had something big, but he never thought that it would be such a trivial matter.
"The rumors in the market, laugh at it, why should Da Xi Xianggong take it seriously?"
Yan Zhuangpi on the side didn't smile, and said coldly.
Da Xixun had a bitter face and replied seriously:
"Minister, minister knows, some people wish that there is no place for the minister to die, and now only His Majesty can ...... Cough...... Ahem......"
Maybe he was too emotional, Da Xixun coughed violently.
An Qingxu looked at Da Xixun and felt annoyed, and just wanted to send him away as soon as possible as he did with Yin Ziqi.
"I know everything, and I will order someone to investigate and punish the rumor-mongers later, so Da Xi Xianggong will go back and rest. ”
Unexpectedly, Da Xixun finished coughing, and two lines of muddy tears actually flowed from his old eyes, and he whimpered and said:
"The minister is wronged, and the minister is bitter. If you can't return justice to the minister, even if the minister is dead, if you die, you can't turn a blind eye......"
Yin Ziqi, who listened to this confession, had goosebumps all over his body, who was Da Xixun? After the Henan Yin army of the former Tang Dynasty and the Great Yan army went south, he immediately changed his court and voted for Dayan, which was a standard traitor. Now he actually ran to the Son of Heaven and cried and put on a loyal minister's appearance, which is really funny.
However, for an inconsequential character like Da Xixun, Yin Ziqi was reluctant to step in, so he just watched coldly to see what moth this old guy was going to toss.
It's just that An Qingxu eats this set very much, and when he sees Da Xixun confessing his heart like this, he can't help but sigh with emotion, and his good impression of him is also faintly more.
"Don't worry, I am here to make a package ticket with you, the rumor-mongers behind the scenes will not die well, and the old minister will be fair and innocent!"
Da Xixun was grateful for his words when he heard this, and he was even more in tears, as if he was moved beyond measure.
Yin Ziqi also knows a little about Da Xixun's situation. There are many people in Luoyang City who are interested in the Tang Dynasty, either openly or secretly, and Da Xixun has become the person with the highest official quality among the Tang ministers of the Yan Dynasty, so that he can be used as a target for attacks by people who cherish his homeland. At this time, he wantonly spread rumors and slandered Da Xixun, just to take advantage of the chaos to implicate this old guy, and it was best to be executed as a spy.
However, what kind of person is Da Xixun, the alias of the crystal fox is not given for nothing, and the ability to see the wind and rudder is not beyond the reach of ordinary people. Before everything is clear, how can they act rashly?
The reason why I came to cry and plead my grievances now is just for An Qingxu to see.
Although he saw through Da Xixun's thoughts, Yin Ziqi didn't want to ask, after all, keeping Da Xixun was beneficial to the overall situation.
The monarchs and ministers in the palace looked like they knew each other, Yin Ziqi watched coldly, but Yan Zhuang unexpectedly interjected:
"Da Xi Xianggong, do you know who created the rumors?"
"This ...... The old man only heard, but did not know who the Lord had served......"
Yan Zhuang continued to ask:
"Even if you don't know the mastermind, the person who spreads the rumor should always know it, otherwise how can you know about it?"
"This, this...... It's all rumors, let's let the old man say it......"
After a solemn reminder, An Qingxu also reacted, since Da Xixun wronged someone wronged him, there must always be someone who spread rumors and make trouble.
"Da Xi Xianggong doesn't need to worry, although it is said that who dares to be afraid that the world will not be chaotic at the moment of the great enemy, and he will destroy his three clans. ”
Yin Ziqi raised his eyebrows, the three clans of Yi can be said to be the most tragic punishment, the father's family, mother's family, and wife's family of the parties were all killed together, and it is inevitable that this kind of torture will be used to punish the rumor-mongers.
Da Xixun was immediately frightened and jumped up, and hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty must not, no!"
