The war in Ha Phuoc County started suddenly, as if overnight, the entire city of Bai An no longer had the prosperity it used to be.

The number of people defending the city has increased several times, and at the Yichuan Pass, which is a hundred miles away from Bai'an, Helan Zhuo and Helan Yuncheng personally led 10,000 Dongying soldiers to defend it.

Old Man Weng's birthday banquet finally ended with the ringing of the bell of Bai'an City, and Liao Yihuan had long forgotten the matter of hunting with others that he was still discussing before, and he did not come back after returning to Helan's house directly.

Feng Qiao has been staying in the Spring Snow House, not leaving an inch, but the news from the outside has been sent over in a steady stream.

Wu Shijun rebelled and fought with Helan Yunjing outside the city of Quning, intending to use the power of Western Xinjiang to take Hefu County directly, but it coincided with civil strife in Western Xinjiang... South Vietnam took advantage of the chaos to enter the customs, and Li Zhenchuan, the general of the South Vietnamese garrison, led his troops to Yichuan in person, wanting to attack Bai An......

……

The situation in Bai'an City is tense, and Jingzhong is also in chaos because of the sudden change of Yang Juni.

In the palace, Emperor Yongzhen looked at the battle report, his chest was constantly rising and falling, and his face was full of hideous color.

"200,000, a full 200,000 people, where did Wu Shijun get so many troops, and how could so many people suddenly appear in Yanghui!? You tell me every day that the world is peaceful, and that there is nothing strange happening, until Wu Shijun rebels, I don't know that Yangjun's troops are about to catch up with the Southwest Army. ”

"You are good, you are very good, you eat the salary of the court, and you hold the money of the court, but one by one you only know how to whitewash the peace with me, do you have to wait until they all enter the capital and take my head, I know that there are such capable people in my court, ah?!"

"What's the use of what I want you to do?!"

The fold "brushed" and smashed towards the following people, the Southwest Governor's Mansion bore the brunt of the inspection, and was directly smashed, he trembled and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but Emperor Yongzhen didn't listen to his explanation at all, and directly opened his mouth and said angrily: "Come on, drag him out and behead him!"

"Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life......"

The entire Dragon Terrace was filled with the man's mournful cry for mercy, and when Chen An entered with the news, he happened to staggered with the person who was gagged and dragged down by the guards, and he walked directly from the side to the side of the holy car without the slightest emotion on his face, and whispered to Emperor Yongzhen: "Your Majesty, there is another battle report from the southwest." ”

"Bring it on!"

Emperor Yongzhen directly opened the battle report in his hand, and after reading it at a glance, he slapped it on the table: "A good South Vietnam, a good one to rob while the fire is burning, I see that they are all impatient!"

The eldest prince, Xiao Xianhong, stood not far away, and when he heard this, he said: "Father, this time Wu Shijun suddenly rebelled and led the army to besiege Quning, and Nanyue took advantage of the fire to loot and try to attack Bai'an. ”

"Yes, father, now it's just Nanyue and Yangjun, if Xijiang takes advantage of the chaos to intervene in it and conspire with Wu Shijun, then ......"

Xiao Yanxu, the fourth prince, did not finish his words, but everyone in the palace already knew the meaning of his words.

If the three parties come out together, and Wu Shijun opens the gate of Yangjuni and joins forces with the Western Xinjiang, then the land of Yangjuni will be like a no-man's land, even if Helan Mingquan uses troops like a god, how can he hold the tripartite attack, and if Wu Shijun and Nanyue trap Helan Mingquan and drag all the southwest army in the south, the western Xinjiang department will take advantage of the chaos to go north, it will invade the hinterland of Dayan, and then the war will expand to the entire territory of the Dayan Dynasty, and it will be out of control.

Emperor Yongzhen's face was extremely ugly, and Xiao Minyuan suddenly said: "Father, the sons have always felt strange, although Wu Shijun is the Taishou of Yanghui, it is not an overnight thing to recruit 200,000 soldiers, and if you want to feed so many private soldiers, it is impossible to rely on Yangjun's taxes and the grain and grass allocated by the imperial court alone." How could Wu Shijun alone be able to sustain such a big situation and expenses?"

"And Yangjuni, like Bai'an, is the most important city in the southwest, so the DPRK and the central government specially sent an envoy to inspect once a year, but now until Wu Shijun rebelled and led the army to Hefu County, we didn't know that there were so many troops hidden there, and it was impossible to say that no one had a comprehensive decision. ”

"Lord Feng, what do you think?"

Feng Qizhou listened to Xiao Minyuan's meaningful words, knelt down with a calm face and said: "This matter is indeed a dereliction of duty by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which did not notice the matter of Wu Shijun's troops as soon as possible, let alone that the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate colluded with Wu Shijun privately and deceived the superiors and subordinates. ”

"Wechen has been in office for half a year, and he should have personally gone to Yangjun to inspect, and all kinds of things here will definitely appear early, so how could he be caught off guard today. Weichen is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!"

Feng Qizhou didn't even shirk the slightest bit of blame, and directly took the blame.

Guo Chongzhen frowned when he heard this: "Your Majesty, it's no wonder that Lord Feng has only been in office for half a year, and it takes too much energy just to sort out the affairs in the Imperial Procuratorate, and then he has encountered a fire in the Hyogo Division, an assassination in the palace, and a fraud in the scientific examination, how can he have time to go to Yanghui to inspect?"

When Emperor Yongzhen heard Guo Chongzhen mention the fire in the Hyogo Division, he instantly remembered Xiao Minyuan's imprisonment that day, and his face suddenly became cold.

Xiao Minyuan's heart jumped, and he hurriedly said: "Father, the emperor ......"

"Alright. ”

Emperor Yongzhen glanced at Xiao Minyuan, remembering that when Xiao Minyuan was imprisoned, because that incident involved the Wen family and the Zheng Guo Mansion, he gave full authority to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to investigate, and Feng Qizhou also knew about Xiao Minyuan's embarrassment, and Xiao Minyuan lost a lot of wings in the court because of that incident.

Emperor Yongzhen only thought that Xiao Minyuan was deliberately embarrassed by Feng Qizhou, and said coldly: "This matter has nothing to do with Feng Qing, Feng Qing, get up." ”

Feng Qizhou had no sadness or joy on his face, he was not at all wronged by Xiao Minyuan's deliberate false words just now, nor was he too happy because of Emperor Yongzhen's trust, he just kowtowed to Emperor Yongzhen and said respectfully: "Your Majesty." ”

Xiao Minyuan looked at Feng Qizhou, who had retreated to the side, and his face had not even changed at all, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

Father is obviously a suspicious person, and he has never trusted anyone too much, even Chen An is suspicious from time to time, but why, why does he believe in Feng Qizhou so much, and he has never even had the slightest suspicion?

If someone else had something to do with it today, how could he be spared?

If it was someone else, it was possible to collude with Wu Shijun, even if it was only a little suspicious, his father would definitely temporarily remove him from his official position and wait until the truth was found out before appointing him, but why did he refuse to be suspicious of Feng Qizhou at all? !
