When the news reached the Sixth Palace, Xiao Yi was in the East Warm Pavilion, Emperor Jianheng was sitting behind the dragon case, and Xiao Yi, Xiao Yan, Yan Weizhang in the cabinet, Gu Zhengde, Tan Wuzhen and Yan Houzhao in the cabinet, the room was serious and silent at the moment, Emperor Jianheng was holding an urgent report from outside the customs in his hand, his brows were slightly frowned, and the people below were all standing there calmly, not raising their heads, not even moving the slightest.

After a long time, Emperor Jianheng's hand holding Western glasses was slightly lowered, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and he glanced at the people below, and then said indifferently: "Cabinet-"

The people in the cabinet all froze when they heard this, and quietly heard the voice of Emperor Jianheng from above.

"Have you read all this urgent report?"

Yan Weizhang paused slightly when he heard this, then walked out slowly, bowed down and said extremely respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers have already seen it." ”

"Hmm. ”

Emperor Jianheng nodded, folded the emergency report in his hand unhurriedly, put it back in, and raised it in his hand to the courtiers under the seat: "Then you tell me, what do you have to say." ”

Yan Weizhang's eyes raised slightly, and he glanced at the urgent report that was put on the dragon case by Emperor Jianheng, and then lowered his eyes again and said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers think that this time it should be a battle." ”

Emperor Jianheng closed his eyes slightly, rubbed his temples with his thumb as if he was tired, and said without a trace of tone in his words: "Xuanfu is in danger of being left and middle, Nanping Jingshi is the throat of the northern Tatars, in the past, the Tatars harassed the border only in winter, but this time it was a heavy force pressed into Xuanfu, if you don't fight, I'm afraid that no one will come, you will all escort me south." ”

"We're terrified—"

It was obviously a flat tone, but the ministers could hear a different anger, and at this moment they didn't dare to just stand there and brush their mouths, they all knelt down in their robes and buried their heads on the ground.

Emperor Jianheng glanced at everyone coldly, and finally returned his gaze to the cabinet, and said unhurriedly: "Then tell me, how should this battle be fought, who should be sent to fight?"

As soon as the words fell, the hall was quiet again, Guo Shenzong and Xiao Kang were both dead, if it was really said that there was experience in fighting with the Tatars, and there was only one Gu Jingming and Gu Zihan at the border pass, it seemed that this question was not difficult.

The difficult thing is that these two people are both members of the Gu family, Gu Zhengde, as the second assistant of the cabinet, naturally wants to avoid suspicion, and the cabinet is Yan Weizhang and Yan Houzhao father and son, if they are asked to recommend, I am afraid that they are dreaming, so Tan Wuzhen at this time raised his eyes and looked, but he straightened his back slightly, leaned out his feet without hesitation, and walked forward.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the two Gu adults who captured the right general and the general army of Liaodong are worthy of this war, and Weichen implores His Majesty to issue a decree and order the two of them to rush to Xuanfu to resist the Tatars. ”

When everyone saw Tan Wuzhen walk out, but Yan Weizhang's voice sounded in their ears, they couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and for a moment they actually felt that there was something wrong with their ears, whether it was in the cabinet or in the court, when was Yan Ge Lao and Gu Ge Lao, who were fighting openly and secretly, so good?

Gu Zhengde, who was originally silent, couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, and when he raised his head, he was facing Yan Weizhang's serious eyes, and for a while, he couldn't even notice what the old fox in front of him was doing.

Emperor Jianheng glanced at the first and second assistants in front of him, and looked at Yan Weizhang with a bit of meaning in his eyes: "Yan Ge Lao's words are so righteous that I can't refute them. ”

When Yan Weizhang heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand in fear: "Weichen doesn't dare, Your Majesty has lifted it." ”

Emperor Jianheng waved his hand, and then said, "Get up." ”

When Yan Weizhang slowly got up, Emperor Jianheng glanced at everyone, and then gradually became serious and solemn in his words.

"If you talk about the understanding of military affairs outside the Guan, it is none other than the two of them, since Yan Ge Lao has been recommended by me, do you still have other opinions?"

The emperor has already said this, if there is any more opinion, it is obviously blind, so everyone did not even have the slightest, so he bowed down and said: "Weichen seconded it." ”

"Good. ”

The emperor's voice was extremely calm, and then he looked sideways at Feng Weidao on the side: "I will make Gu Jingming the general of Zhenshuo and the governor of Xuanda, and Gu Zihan as the general of Shanxi, and order the two of them to rush to Xuanfu to sit in the town and fight against the Tatars." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was expected, but they were unexpected, although they knew that this recommendation would definitely be promoted, but they didn't expect that the emperor would give such a hot military power and status.

Gu Zihan sat on the position of the chief soldier of Shanxi at a young age, and Gu Jingming became the governor of Xuanda, and when he heard his name, he knew that the governor of Xuanda was in charge of Xuanfu and Datong, and Xuanfu and Datong belonged to the nine-sided towns of the current dynasty, and Datong was the head of the nine-sided towns.

This expedition, the Gu family, is really infinite, and it can no longer be stopped.

It can be seen that in the end, it is the in-laws, especially the in-laws of the East Palace, and the emperor's heart can't help but go astray.

But even if they think so, they have to obey, who can't make them have a person in the house who can fight.

"The slave obeys. ”

Hearing Feng Wei's response, everyone came back to their senses, Emperor Jianheng turned to look down, swept the changing expressions of everyone, the corners of his lips moved slightly, when he saw Yan Weizhang and Gu Zhengde's indifferent appearance to each other, his eyes raised slightly, and then he said again: "This is a big war, there can't be only one person in the affairs of the soldiers, but you can talk about it, who can take the position of this deputy chief soldier?"

After all, the chief soldier and the governor make decisions, but they also need the deputy chief to make appropriate suggestions; in the past, there were many incompetences as deputy commanders-in-chief, who clearly knew that the decisions of their superiors had made mistakes and turned a deaf ear, and eventually caused a big mistake in delaying the military aircraft. However, there are also those who disagree with their superiors, resulting in defeat, so this deputy commander-in-chief must not only have excellent judgment, but also have the ability to communicate with superiors, and such a person also needs a person with sufficient military experience.

Weichen thought that Master Zheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, was worthy of this position. ”

Hearing Tan Wuzhen's sonorous and powerful voice, everyone suddenly remembered that this position was really none other than Zheng Wen, the waiter of the Ministry of Etiquette.

Standing in the crowd at this moment, Zheng Wen, who was originally silent, suddenly moved in his heart when he heard this, and the hand hidden under the sleeve couldn't help but squeeze tightly, no one knew how long he had been waiting for this moment.

Zheng Wen, if you look at the name, is more like a weak scholar, but Zheng Wen is indeed a scholar, but he is not weak. The 35-year-old Shu Jishi was awarded the review of the Hanlin Academy in 38 years, and then he was transferred to the Hanlin Academy as a lecturer, and now he has been promoted to the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet Scholar.

This sounds more like the history of a Wenchen's fortune, but Zheng Wen showed his extraordinary military ability when he followed the south to quell the rebellion.

And Zheng Wen is the capable person among their ministers.

Emperor Jianheng's gaze quietly fell on the originally inconspicuous Zheng Wen, and his calm eyes gradually glowed with a little joy.

"Meng Zhong should be in charge of this. ”

Meng Zhong is Zheng Wen's character, and the emperor called it so, and everything seems to need no longer be declared.

At this moment, Zheng Wen walked out quietly, saying words of gratitude, but the pride and ambition in his heart were incomprehensible to the world.

He had finally waited for this day.
