Chapter 142: The Huns Are Coming?
On the other side, in the imperial study, after reading the recital, the emperor was furious, and slapped the desk violently, shaking the pen and inkstone on the desk slightly, and said angrily: "Presumptuous! The Huns dare to invade our Daxuan border! Outrageous! ”
Below, on one side sat the crown prince, King Yu, King Chen, and several ministers of the first assistant, and on the other side sat Murong Jin, and several imperial historians were all Shangshu lords. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Seeing this, several people present were also angry.
His Royal Highness King Yu thought of the news he received last night, his eyes sank, he got up, walked to the middle, knelt down, his face was full of righteous indignation, and said: "Father, I am a big country, is it possible to be afraid of that little thief!" Erchen is willing to lead his troops to go, and he is bound to defeat the Xiongnu in one fell swoop."
Several ministers of King Yu's party immediately stood up and agreed, imploring the emperor to send troops to attack the Xiongnu.
The emperor had a calm face, his deep eyes stared at King Yu for half a salary, he didn't say good, he didn't say bad, King Yu, who was kneeling in the hall, couldn't wait for a reply, lowered his head, and was a little apprehensive in his heart, his palms were slightly sweaty, he gritted his teeth, and spoke again, begging the emperor for permission to send troops to attack the Huns.
Zhou Yuwen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, since the Marquis of Zhenguo led his troops to pacify Yanmen Pass fourteen years ago, the Xiongnu signed a hundred-year-old contract with us, and there are many economic exchanges, and they do not interfere with each other's territory.
Zhou Yuwen is iron-faced and selfless, his style of action is bright and upright, frank and open, loyal to the emperor, does not involve partisan disputes, is a rare clear stream in the court, after he stood up, the emperor's eyebrows raised slightly, and his eyes crossed the face of the prince who was sitting on the side and had not yet expressed anything, I don't know what he was thinking, and he still didn't speak.
King Yu was stunned, as if he didn't talk about Zhou Yuwen would stand up, and after listening to his words, a thin anger flashed on his feminine face, turned around, glared at Zhou Yuwen, sneered, and said: "Hmph, Lord Shangshu's remarks are ridiculous!" Those thieves are good at plundering and robbing and killing, they are a group of ruffians and hooligans, how can they have any credibility...... I'm afraid that the repaired document is just a piece of waste paper in their eyes, and they can't do it, when the first emperor was there, they came to attack many times, and now they have been stable for more than ten years, I am afraid that they are also secretly accumulating strength to prepare for this attack......"
Zhou Yuwen has a straight temper, he has always had one thing to say, two to say, and he didn't care about his face at the moment, and sneered: "His Royal Highness King Yu said so true, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, but as far as the minister knows, the Xiongnu A few years ago, the new Shan Yu Mu Lianying, is not like the deceased old Shan Yu with a cruel and cruel temperament, he has a gentle temperament, humble and modest, advocating the rule of virtue, since he took office, and our country has very close exchanges, whether it is economic, cultural, or political, there are exchanges, how can he rashly come to attack, Doing this kind of thing will do all kinds of harm and no benefit to them! ”
Wu Chengying, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, rolled his small eyes, and seeing that the emperor still didn't say anything, he looked at King Yu, who was full of anger, stood up, and said: "Lord Zhou, don't forget a word, in front of the country, there are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends!" ”
The officials of King Yu's faction reconsidered: "That is, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly!" ”
"I implore the emperor to give an order to attack the Huns!"
……
Seeing this scene, Murong Jin lowered his eyes and did not move, at this moment he did not wear a silver mask, and the red birthmark on his face was extremely ugly, making people dare not look at it directly.
At this moment, Prince Xuanyuan Che, who had not moved, slowly stood up, and the emperor's eyes flashed slightly when he saw him come out.
I saw the prince salute and said: "Father, the son thinks that Lord Zhou is reasonable, the border has been governed by Xiao Chengfei, the general who defended the city for many years, and he should be responsible for such a big thing, and I hope that my father will send someone to investigate clearly, if it is really the Huns who are attacking, then it will not be too late to send troops again", his voice was warm.
Xiao General Xiao Chengfei is the eldest son of Pingxi Hou, the uncle of His Royal Highness King Yu, in previous years, he was the town of Moheng guarding the frontier, since the town of the country returned to his hometown, that is, Mo Heng also resigned from the post of the general of the city, with the town of the marquis returned to the old house in the south of the Yangtze River, the position of the general of the city was vacant, this errand fell to Xiao Chengfei's head, or Pingxi Hou personally recommended.
At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought him up, and there is no need to explain what his intentions are.
King Yu immediately snorted coldly, his feminine face became more and more angry, and he said with words: "General Xiao has guarded the frontier all these years, and he has worked hard, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, and he is not afraid of chilling the hearts of the soldiers. ”
The crown prince and King Yu, the two forces confronted each other.
Murong Jin was silent, playing with the golden thread wrapped in his hand, his eyes were deep, and he swept lightly towards King Chen not far away, this prince, no matter where he went, he was unknown, as if he had been forgotten, even if the prince fought with King Yu no matter how powerful, it had nothing to do with him, just like today, he was sitting there from beginning to end, looking down at the rosewood square table on the side, as if the texture on the table was more attractive than this court thing, which was unusual.
"Once the war starts, it will be a major turmoil for the country, and it will be even more miserable for the people, and how many people will be displaced and live in the water and fire ......", the prince said, as if he thought of the scene after the war, a trace of unbearable flashed in his eyes, and then he bowed to the emperor again, and said: "Father, the son thinks that it is not possible to wave troops recklessly, or to find out the situation first, and then make plans, if the news is wrong, the Huns did not come to attack, then who will bear the war?" ”
Hearing this, the emperor Gu Lao, who was sitting on the side, raised his eyes, glanced at Prince Xuanyuan Che deeply, and nodded secretly, he was very satisfied with him, the prince has the talent to govern the country, and he is even more concerned about the world, worried about the country and the people, and has a benevolent heart, which is the luck of the country.
King Yu sighed in his heart when he heard the words "the news is wrong", he raised his eyes and glanced at the prince, who was standing there with clear eyebrows and a calm face.
He was a little hesitant for a while, he didn't know how much the prince knew, if he knew the truth of the matter, he would definitely break the matter until Xiao Chengfei died, instead of arguing with himself here, if he didn't know...... Why do you say such things again?
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in King Yu's eyes, and he secretly made up his mind, no matter what, he must protect Xiao Chengfei, he must not have an accident, and at the moment he put his hand behind his back and secretly made a gesture. (To be continued.) )
