Chapter 231: The border is in chaos

In the early dynasty of the Hanquan Kingdom, Li Quan had just sat on the dragon chair, and it was not yet warm!

"There is a book to start playing! There is no book to retreat from the court!" The eunuch shouted! Before the words fell, the courtiers reported it!

"Your Majesty, yesterday the Great Desert Qiang State invaded the border of our Hanquan Kingdom overnight, and General Wang's family stationed in Jingzhou has sacrificed their lives for the country!

The person who spoke was none other than Mu Shan, who looked very worried, his brows furrowed.

"What?

"The Qiang Kingdom has been at peace with our dynasty for many years!

This desert has not moved for many years, but this time, it is a blatant disrespect for the Son of Heaven!

The emperor asked with a gloomy face, "When will General Wang give his life?"

Mu Shan: "Returning to the Holy Lord, it was two days ago! None of General Wang's family survived. ”

Li Quan looked at the courtiers below, the civil officials were trembling at this time, and they inevitably panicked in their hearts, you must know that they had subdued the Qiang State as early as the time of the first emperor, and they had not rebelled for many years!

"How are they doing now, do you have any ideas for the next step?" said the Emperor.

Mu Shan: "This... But this is not known. ”

Zhao Wenzhi: "Before the eight-hundred-mile expedited twist was delivered to the Holy Table, you already knew? It's really a divine power! But I don't know what they will do next? Could it be that they don't want to say it?"

On the top of today's hall, Li Yuduan, the king of Shu, was present, and King Kang was naturally there, and this Li Kangduan disappeared for a while.

Li Yuduan handled some government affairs for the emperor, but he was handy and praised.

When it came to fighting at this time, Zhao Wenzhi naturally knew that this was Mushan's specialty, so he only said this.

Li Xunduan stood aside with gloomy eyes, and his sixth son, Li Chuduan, also stood aside and listened.

Li Quan's mind changed a little, but in fact, he received the news last night!

Jingzhou is the lifeblood, if the Qiang country passes through Jingzhou, you can go all the way up, directly to the capital, is the lifeline. Location matters.

Over the years, they have sent Mushan to garrison and secretly quell many wars, but now they have only transferred him back for a few years, and they are so restless!

The Qiang State is different from the Goryeo Xiongnu State. It can't be beaten far away, but there is a fast way to reach the Central Plains.

"Prime Minister Zhao, what are you talking about? This official has been stationed in Jingzhou for many years, and General Wang is the descendant who came out of my subordinates, so I naturally knew it first. ”

Mu Shan choked mercilessly. In this kind of thing, no one dares to hit him.

The emperor said: "Don't quarrel, if the Qiang Kingdom is against you, do you want to help me surrender?"

At this time, what are these two arguing about?

Zhao Wenzhi: "Your Majesty is angry!"

Mu Shan: "Your Majesty is angry!"

"The emperor is angry!"

The two of them together, and the hundred officials also said in unison.

Mu Shan, however, glanced at Zhao Wenzhi and immediately said: "At this moment, the Qiang State has occupied Jingzhou, we should immediately send troops to recover it!"

"Holy Lord, there is no time to delay!"

"yes, you have to act fast!"

The military attachés have the same caliber, and the civilian officials are also patriots. Shouting, fighting, shouting, and killing without mercy.

Li Quan was silent.

Zhao Wenzhi looked at Li Quan's face and guessed a thing or two.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is inappropriate to send troops to go now!" Zhao Wenzhi said.

Mu Shan: "Prime Minister, what are these words? The Great Desert Qiang State has already made a huge noise, but it is not going to be allowed to go unchecked?"

"yes!

"Wait! Why did the prime minister say this?" asked Li Quan.

Zhao Wenzhi turned to Li Quan unhurriedly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Jingzhou is remote, and it really belongs to the territory that is easy to defend and not easy to attack, so you really can't send troops lightly!"

Li Quan squinted, obviously careless. His eyes were cautious: "Is it? If you don't send troops, then you don't have to wait for the Qiang State to attack the capital?"

"Prime Minister, can you tell me?" Mu Shan asked with Li Quan's words.

His eyes fell on Li Kangduan.

"Then Rong Chen said that it is suspicious that this Qiang State took Jingzhou. Maybe it's going to be a trap! We shouldn't rush to send troops, we should first send spies to see what Jingzhou is real!"

Zhao Wenzhi said confidently, even if anyone could think of this, Li Quan was comfortable listening to it.

Mu Shan: "Your Majesty, that Jingzhou was originally garrisoned by ministers, and how many traps and ministers fell asleep came together!

Zhao Wenzhi: "How does General Mu know if General Wang has changed in the past few years? Has this general taken refuge in the Qiang Kingdom?"

There is some truth in what he said, and he won some support in an instant.

Li Yuduan also came out and said: "Father, Jingzhou has indeed been firmly guarded for many years, and this time it was suddenly breached, there must be other reasons!"

Li Quan's eyes rolled, and he seemed to believe it.

"Your Majesty's words! That Wang Xin is the minister's deputy from birth to death, and he is absolutely loyal to His Majesty!

The emperor looked at everyone, and it was not that he was unwilling to show his heart, but whether he said it or not, these old guys could guess one by one.

Li Quan said slowly: "I don't like the Qiang country, the rules they set at the time of the first emperor were 10,000 cattle and sheep each year, but in recent years, they have become less and less, and they are often in arrears, and they don't seem to take me seriously!"

"That's it! If the Qiang country commits a crime, you must give them some color to see!" Mu Shan said angrily.

He is obviously indignant today because General Wang was destroyed!

After all, it was the person who was born and died together, and killing him was tantamount to annoying Mu Shan!

He has been galloping on the field for so many years, how can he tolerate this insult?

Zhao Wenzhi said: "Your Majesty, the majesty of the Celestial Empire naturally cannot be lost, but in recent years, the world has been peaceful, so it is better not to provoke war lightly!"

Although he felt that what Li Quan said seemed to be going to crusade against the Qiang State, Zhao Wenzhi always felt that this was not the case.

The emperor: "What do the Qing family think? The prime minister said that the delay will first explore the truth, and what the general said is that he will set off on the same day to crusade against the Qiang State and regain the lost territory!"

"Tell me, my lords, what do you think?" said the chief eunuch beside the emperor, your father-in-law!

His shrill voice is not unfamiliar, Li Quan has always been not light and loud, and all the majesty is just enough in his eyes.

The words have always been spoken by this eunuch.

Li Quan's eyes were cold, but the yellow robe was fast, and his movements were fast and accurate!

"Oops!"

At first glance, I knew that this kick was not light, and my father-in-law's face was purple, and he was busy kneeling down and kowtowing!

The hundreds of officials in the upper court were also shocked, but they knelt down consciously!

shouted in unison: "The emperor is angry." The emperor is angry! The emperor is angry!"

Li Quan smiled: "What's the matter? Why don't you fight? I see that you are all-for-tat, and I am glad that you have the support of good ministers!"

Li Xunduan glanced at Li Yuduan.

He was also puzzled.

When foreign enemies came to attack, it could be seen that Li Quan was upset in his heart, first, he was worried about the instability of the country. Second, he was terrified of his rule.

At this time, the hundred officials did not speak in unison, resisting the enemy with one heart, and still entangled and fighting here, he was really angry!

"Slave should die! slave should die!" your father-in-law kept shouting. Tears and snot came down.

Li Quan cast a disgusted gaze and said puzzledly: "Today, your voice is ugly, and the noise is very loud! Get down! The people of the Qing family get up quickly, and they still have to discuss countermeasures, right?"

Mu Shan and Zhao Wenzhi both hesitated for a moment, and then they got up, but no one said anything.

Indeed, they all guessed wrong.

Li Quan asked in a cold voice one by one: "What? What does the Zhongqing family think? King Shu, King Kang, and Xun Duan?"

But no one answered, and the crowd just bowed their heads and remained silent.

Li Kangduan, as the first person to discover this matter, was silent at the moment.

"Your Majesty, the virtual and the real can be explored. The people of Jingzhou are in dire straits, and if the imperial court does not rescue them in time, I am afraid that they will lose the support of the people!"

An old hoarse voice came, and Li Quan looked down.

Everyone also looked back, it was none other than Mrs. Zuo.

Mu Shan said happily: "Taifu Gao, the people are in need of help!"

Looking at Zuo Taifu, who slowly walked forward, he was very thin, a little shy, and his face was thin and scathing. A pair of eyes are spiritual.

Zhao Wenzhi frowned, and couldn't help but glance at Li Yuduan.

This Zuo Taifu is not Yuduan's father-in-law, how can he help others speak?

If this is the case, what is the significance of the emperor's marriage?

The emperor said with concern: "Mrs. Zuo, it's rare to see you." Are you alright?"

"Your Majesty, the old minister is blessed by the emperor, and his body is acceptable. Mrs. Zuo replied.

Li Quan looked at him meaningfully and asked, "What does Taifu mean, to send troops as much as possible?"

Didn't he just give his daughter to Yuduan a few days ago, but at this time he didn't speak for his son-in-law?

Mrs. Zuo said, "Yes, Holy Lord." Just like General Mu Shan's words. Jingzhou is the gate of life, and the gate of our Hanquan must be taken back as much as possible!"

"Taifu, but this Jingzhou is really remote, we don't know anything, rashly send troops, if you fall into the trap?

He was so nervous, because when the emperor sent King Kang to suppress it, and when he came back with military merits, the popular support that Yuduan had just won was afraid that it would disperse.

Not to mention the fact that the daughter of the Taifu was poisoned yesterday, this is clearly asking the saint to change his mind!

Li Quan looked at Mrs. Zuo with great interest, this person used to be the one who taught himself to find Mushan to fight the world and find the Xiao family as a friendship!

"Prime Minister, you and I are just civilian officials, no matter how much we talk about leading troops to fight, there will be no real military achievements, why not hand it over to the military attaché?"

As soon as Mrs. Zuo said this, Zhao Wenzhi really didn't know how to answer.

Looking at his calm demeanor and easy appearance, who would have thought that he would lose his beloved daughter yesterday?

Zuo Taifu said again: "Your Majesty, don't say whether there are traps or not, they should all be handed over to the army, a good general, why be afraid of him?"

Li Quan's face couldn't see any change, and no one saw any clue to his anger just now. This kind of thing of a king hiding his feelings is not something that ordinary people can see.

For a long time, Li Quan just looked at the people below with a pair of eyes, and even Mu Shan's heart was a little empty.

Zhao Wenzhi wanted to say something, but in front of Zuo Taifu, who was thirty years older than him, he was like a child and couldn't speak.

Li Quan: "What Taifu said is very reasonable. Who wants to lead the troops into battle?"

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Yuduan had a cold face.

"Father, the son is willing to serve Hanquan as a dog and horse! Lead the troops forward!" Li Kang stepped forward unexpectedly.

Li Quan: "King Kang is willing to go?"

He followed Mu Shan's thoughts......

Mu Shandao: "The minister is already old, and he is willing to send his eldest son to help King Kang!"

Mu Mu immediately knelt out, he was full of military merits, and he was relieved to go.

"The minister is willing to serve the country!" Mu Mu only said four words!

Li Quan looked at the people below with an appreciative look in his eyes, among the military attachés, the only people who could be used by him were the Mu family......

There was only a slight flash of disappointment in Li Quan's eyes, but he was captured by Li Xunduan and remembered it firmly in his heart.

The emperor: "Okay, let King Kang be the general of Zhenyuan, Mu Mu will be the general of Zhenzhan, lead 50,000 troops, and set off for Jingzhou to suppress it on the same day!"

King Kang: "The sons obey the order!"

Mu Mu: "Thank you, Lord Longen, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

Hundreds of officials worshipped: "The emperor is wise, long live long live long live!"

"May the two generals triumph as soon as possible!" and defeat the Qiang country!" Zuo Taifu said slowly.

Li Quan looked at him, as if he had something unspeakable.

Soon he retired from the dynasty, and hundreds of officials talked about it, and some were very optimistic about King Kang's expedition to suppress it!

There are also sighs that King Kang has never been in command alone! This time, Mu Shan will not go, and I don't know if he can win!

It's also worrying!

Before he walked out of the main hall, the King of Shu walked towards Zuo Taifu, he really had some doubts, originally didn't say that he wanted to ask for an explanation for Zuo Le Aya today!

Why did he single-handedly send Li Kangduan and the people of the Mu family to the battlefield?

"Taifu!" Li Yu stepped forward.

Taifu Zuo said a little coldly: "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"Le Aya's matter, have you already played it?" Li Yuduan said with a concerned look.

It seems very human......

"It's been played, and the Holy One hasn't replied yet. Come to think of it, after all, it is a marriage given by the Holy God, and it must be the will of the Holy God. Mrs. Zuo said miserably, with tears in his eyes and no light in his eyes.

Li Yuduan said: "Also, if there is any progress, I will definitely tell the king!

is another word of comfort, and only then will they go away.

Originally, he wasn't going to ask about this!

It should be, why did you help the Mu family?

Why don't you support the prime minister to delay for a few days, so that I can prepare countermeasures?

But now, he doesn't ask anything.

Mrs. Zuo is not simple.

The painful old man who lost his daughter that I saw in Zuo's house was not the person he is now!

He defends himself!

Sure enough, the old fox one!

"Taifu, go this way!" The person who spoke was none other than the noble father-in-law who had been kicked.

He limped to lead the way for Mrs. Zuo at the moment, and the two came to the imperial study not far away!

Your father-in-law: "Please come in! The emperor is waiting for you!"

As soon as Mrs. Zuo entered the door, he saw that Li Quan had already slammed a table in anger!

The mouth shouted: "It's reversed! It's reversed!" (To be continued.) )
