Yao Zhiyue said, Mrs. Yao knows the risks, where is it as easy as she thinks?

At present, the war situation in the north is unclear, and the internal political situation in the DPRK is unstable. The magnates and ministers who were good friends with the prince in the past all clamped their tails and behaved, which was an eventful time.

Now that Feng Mingxian has fallen, the prince's family is dominant.

When King Qi was still the crown prince, when he was on a par with Feng Mingxian, the martial arts stood on the side of King Qi clearly, and suddenly let King Qi gain the initiative in the situation.

Although Mrs. Yao is a woman in the back house, she also knows that behind the deposed prince, there must be the handiwork of King Qi.

The martial arts family is a veteran noble, and the prince ascends the throne on the other day, and the martial arts family is even more prosperous, and there is a dragon merit. At this time, everyone wants to hide as deep as possible.

Only the Wu family is more and more proud. Even the people who came out to buy walked on the street with their backs extra straight.

At this time, to murder Wu Zhengxiang's wife? Mrs. Yao simply felt that she was looking for death.

However, if she didn't go, Yao Zhiyue told Yao Shangshu about the old thing. In this back house, I am afraid that I will lose my ownership.

Mrs. Yao was so worried that she didn't know how to choose.

……

After Mrs. Yao left, Yao Zhiyue slowly got up, picked up the tortoiseshell ivory comb on the dressing table, and combed her long hair again and again.

She looked at the girl in the mirror and smiled brightly.

Compared with the past, her smile hides a little innocent and ruthless, and a little less girlish sweetness.

Quan Moxian, no matter what kind of man he is, whether he is a stepfamily or not, she will never marry him. Her heart was already full of Wu Zhengxiang, leaving no gaps.

As long as she can marry him, she can overcome all difficulties and eradicate those who stand in her way!

Xiang Han cautiously came in with a tray and placed the tea and pastries on the table. Madame had just left, and she had expected to see Miss Six, who was very angry, but at this time, she was secretly relieved to see that her eyebrows and eyes were smiling.

……

That night, a post soldier covered in wind and dust, with three poles and eight hundred miles of urgent order flags behind his back, rode his horse to the capital with thousands of miles of smoke and dust, and entered the capital at night.

Early the next morning, an astonishing piece of news spread in Beijing.

The prince led the army to advance greedily, and was attacked by the Bajia army outside Jinyang, and the army suffered heavy losses. The imperial army broke and fled, scattered into several groups and survived. Donggong Wei led the guards of the palace to escort the prince and fled into Jinyang City, defending it.

The rebels colluded with the traitors in Jinyang City, attacked the city and burned the granary. After a night of fighting, the rebels were driven out of the city, but the city suffered heavy losses, and the prince was seriously wounded.

Only Jinyang City was left too defended, leading the army and civilians to defend the city. However, the lack of food and clothing was difficult to last, and the military situation was like fire and asked the imperial court to immediately increase troops to help.

It is said that Emperor Qinglong received this news and was so angry that he vomited blood in the palace.

Rumors blew through Luoyang City like the wind. In the streets and alleys, people lowered their voices, and spread the news with their noses and eyes, as if they had seen it in person.

Emperor Qinglong urgently recruited important ministers to discuss matters.

Headed by Prime Minister Zhu Zihou, he led Guan Jinghuan, a scholar of Xianyuan University, and six Shangshu to gather in the Xuanzheng Palace.

Emperor Qinglong was furious and ordered the military department to immediately draw up a countermeasure, transfer the Gyeonggi battalion, the six guards of the southern ya, and the two armies of the northern ya, and go north to meet the enemy.

Seeing that Emperor Qinglong was not energetic, he coughed again and again during the discussion, and everyone below started their own little Jiujiu.

The crown prince has been seriously injured and lost in Jinyang City, and as the military situation shows, the situation in Jinyang City is in danger.

Even if the troops are transferred immediately, from the preparation of grain and grass to the start of the army, it will take half a month at the earliest. When the army arrives in Jinyang, even if the Bajia army can be wiped out, it will not be able to save the prince.

At that moment, these people had other thoughts.

Emperor Qinglong took Wu Guangqi's handkerchief on the ground and wiped the saliva caused by coughing. Covered it with a handkerchief, and looked at the pillars of the country in front of him with gloomy eyes.

When the national crisis is at hand, he wants to see what these people are thinking.

The military situation is urgent, and Zhu Zihou can no longer pretend to be confused. As Prime Minister, he has to show attitude.

"Your Majesty, the South and North Ya are guarding the imperial city, and they are suddenly transferred out, and I am afraid that the palace will be empty of air defense." He said, "It is better to gather the soldiers of the government nearby and let them assemble at the Gyeonggi camp." ”

His suggestion was very decent. Neither fell into the well, nor did he mean to be anxious for the prince.

The last time the government soldiers were transferred, they were already transferred nearby. This time, the soldiers will only come from farther away, and the time will only be slower. But he is full of thoughts for the emperor, and he is pressed by the name of righteousness, but he seems to be selfless and impartial.

Emperor Qinglong smiled in his heart, even if he passes today, this old fox.

"Yao Aiqing, you are the secretary of the Ministry of War." Emperor Qinglong took the roll call: "You come." ”

Yao Shangshu arched his hand and said: "Lord Zhu's performance is reasonable, but it takes time for the government soldiers to gather, so I'm afraid that the war in the north will not be able to wait so long." In addition, before the soldiers and horses moved the grain and grass, how long did it take for the household to mobilize money and grain? ”

This is to kick the ball to Tobe.

"The last time we mobilized grain and grass, we have used this year's new autumn grain. The year before last, the Yellow River was flooded and plagued rampant. The emperor was lenient and ordered to open a warehouse and release grain to reduce taxes for two years. ”

"In the past two years, the imperial court has relied on Jiangnan and salt taxes to support. At present, the granaries in various places are only enough to use, and the granaries in Beijing are empty, and if they are moved, they are afraid that it will affect the fundamentals. "Gong Yuanwei, the head of the household, replied.

Hearing that the imperial court was so difficult, everyone immediately began to discuss. After a short time, they split into two factions.

One faction was headed by Guan Jinghuan, and Gu Shangshu and others from the Criminal Department seconded the proposal. He advocated shrinking the defensive line, abandoning the imperial army led by the prince, and defending the capital with the Hangu Pass.

The other faction, headed by Liu Bocheng of the Ministry of Officials, and Wu Shangshu and others of the Ministry of Rites seconded the proposal, advocating that a team of elite soldiers should be sent north to aid Jinyang. Later, the army will be slowly gathered to regain the lost territory.

Zhu Zihou and Gong Shangshu remained neutral and only expressed their feelings and did not fight the team.

The two factions had different opinions, and after a short time, they quarreled red-faced. On the one hand, it is said that the lone army is going deep, and it is a waste of troops in the mouth of a sheep. On the one hand, he said that every inch of land must be fought for, and the prince must be protected.

Emperor Qinglong watched the two factions arguing, and his face was not divided into joy and anger. Under Wu Guangqi's service, he slowly tasted tea.

The courtiers knew that the emperor was watching, and no one gave in, and they all quoted scriptures and argued with reason, and spit in front of the throne. Just listening to them, the righteousness is awe-inspiring and selfless.

"That's it!" Emperor Qinglong said: "Tomorrow, the military department plans to show them one by one." ”

He didn't make a decision, and only asked Yao Shangshu to draw up a plan. couldn't figure out his mind, and everyone was confused for a while.

"Stand down."

Everyone came out of the Xuanzheng Palace, and they were all worried, especially Yao Shangshu. He was instructed to draw up a statement, but was it war or defense? Emperor Qinglong's attitude is really incomprehensible.

Guan Jinghuan took a few steps behind, and when Yao Shangshu passed by, he said, "If Lord Yao has time, you might as well walk together." ”4610
