Chapter 704: War is Complicated
Ling Ruo smiled and said silently, and sighed after a while: "Speaking of singing, Ye Xiu was pleased by the emperor with that voice and appearance, although he gave birth to a son, he was favored by the queen, and his blessing turned into a disaster. ”
Wen Ruyan didn't have her feelings, "Ye is not a good person, her death is deserved, there is nothing to be sorry for." ”
"It's a pity that it's all more than ten years ago, and now we just need to know that her death can be used to make a fuss." Speaking of this, she stood up and said, "Okay, the play is about to start, let's go over." ”
Wen Ruyan smiled slightly, and walked to Changyin Pavilion hand in hand with her, just as they were each admiring the chrysanthemum and listening to the play, Yinzhen stood in the south study with a gloomy face, his eyes staring at the ninja word hanging on the wall, which was given to him by Huang Ama, so that he should remember it at any time and time, and never forget.
At this time, someone walked in, and then a voice sounded in the south study, which had been silent for a long time, "Chen Yunxiang knocks on the emperor, the emperor is auspicious!" ”
Yin Zhen took a deep breath and turned around, "Get up." ”
Yun Xiang stood up cautiously and said, "I don't know what the emperor is trying to summon his ministers to do." ”
Yin Zhen said with an ugly face: "Only a secret agent came to report to me, saying that there was a cavalry army of about 1,000 people who entered Beijing from Chengde Gate, and I did not call the Fengtai battalion. ”
Yun Xiang was shocked and blurted out: "The emperor means that someone sent the army without authorization?" After a pause, he categorically vetoed: "This ...... This is impossible, the Fengtai camp has always been in charge of the minister, and the minister has absolutely no ......"
"I didn't say anything about you, have you forgotten that there is also an army stationed outside the capital?" Yinzhen's voice sounded much cooler than the cold dew in the autumn night.
Yun Xiang immediately understood what he meant, but his shock did not decrease but increased, and he said in shock: "The emperor is talking about Nian Qianyao? Does he really want to rebel? ”
"The rebellion is not enough, because the army went to Nian's house and then immediately left the city, and only stayed in Beijing for half an hour. The spies also saw that they were carrying dozens of water trucks to the last year's house, which should have been ordered by Nian Qianyao to fetch water from a distance. ”
Yun Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was not a rebellion, after all, the number of tens of thousands of troops was too terrible, even if the Fengtai battalion and other garrisons were all added, it would be difficult to reach, as for the troops in other places, far water could not quench the thirst, and when they came to the escort of King Qin, the capital would have been chaotic a long time ago.
"So, Nian Qianyao just sent someone to fetch water?" As soon as Yun Xiang's words fell, Yin Zhen punched on the table covered with light gold embroidered longevity characters, and said: "There is an example in this dynasty, no army has been edicted, and it is not allowed to trespass, otherwise it will be regarded as complicity." Nian Qianyao turned a blind eye and privately sent the army to fetch water, and there was no edict to enter Beijing, which was really daring. ”
Yunxiang was silent, he understood Yinzhen's anger and worry, the army supported by the power of the country should have kept the peace of the country, but now it has become a thorn, a thorn that threatens Yinzhen at all times, no one dares to guarantee whether one day, when he wakes up, the capital and even the Forbidden City have been occupied by this group of people, and then Nian Qianyao took a knife and smiled at Yinzhen to abdicate and help Hongsheng ascend the throne.
"Then what is the emperor going to do now?" Nian Qianyao's arrogance has crossed Yinzhen's bottom line, and it has also begun to make Yinzhen gradually feel frightened, and it is imperative to deal with Nian Qianyao.
"Let him go back to the northwest, right away!" Yin Zhen gritted his teeth and said this, his eyes kept on the word forbearance, trying to calm himself down, "After he arrives in the northwest, he will start to cut his military power step by step, and Yue Zhongqi will replace him." ”
"What if Nian Qianyao refuses to hand over the military power, or if he perceives the emperor's intentions?" Yun Xiang asked in a deep voice, now the ministers of prime minister affairs on the face of the court are Long Keduo, Zhang Tingyu and even Nian Qianyao who is temporarily in Beijing, but in fact, there is only one minister of prime minister's affairs, that is, Yun Xiang, and many things are handled by him in secret for Yinzhen.
"Phew!" With another punch slamming on the table, with this loud noise, he said word by word: "If Nian Qianyao dares to resist, even with the strength of the whole country, I will also destroy him!" ”
Raising a tiger is a problem, it is really a tiger to be a problem, but now it is too late to regret it, and I can only try my best to remedy it.
"Yes, I understand." Yun Xiang lowered his head, and he had already calculated how to deploy the defense, as well as how to restrain Nian Qianyao's troops in the northwest, and Yinzhen also meant this, "This matter is up to you, and before you are completely sure, try not to let Nian Qianyao find out." ”
"Minister......" Yun Xiang just said a word, and was interrupted by a knock on the door, but it was Sixi, and said through the door of Jiaohua Palace: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report of the military situation for eight hundred miles." ”
Yinzhen and Yunxiang were both shocked, they would use the 800-mile emergency report, it must be 100,000 urgent military intelligence, is there no peace anywhere?
"Come in!" With Yinzhen's words, Sixi pushed the door in, holding a book of folds in his hand, without waiting for him to speak, Yinzhen had already snatched the fold with his hand, and as his eyes moved on the open fold, his face became more and more unsightly.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?" Yunxiang asked, with an unconcealed eagerness in his eyes.
"Qinghai Guo Luoke took advantage of the opportunity of the return of the young Qianyao class to Beijing, launched a rebellion, and now has successively occupied Ledu, Ping'an, and Hualong, which is almost equivalent to half of Qinghai Province." What is the house leak happened to rain overnight, this time Yinzhen is deeply experienced, the drought in the capital has already burdened the country, the silver in the treasury is spent like flowing water, and Nian Qianyao is a very unstable factor, but at this time, Qinghai is in war again. Not to mention who will lead this soldier to fight this battle, let's just say that the treasury is also stretched, especially since the grain from several granaries in the south of the Yangtze River has just been transported to the capital. Even if Jiangnan Huguang is a rich place, there is no way to supply food endlessly.
There was a deathly silence in the south study, and Yun Xiang quickly turned his mind to find a solution from it, after all, Guo Luoke's rebellion was a fact, and if it was ignored, the northwest would be in danger; Therefore, it was necessary to fight, and the Qing Dynasty would never submit to any foreign clan of the vassal state.
Not to mention the grain and grass, the most important thing at the moment is who will lead the army, Nian Qianyao or Yue Zhongqi, or...... Himself?
"Your Majesty ......" As soon as Yun Xiang spoke, he was interrupted by Yin Zhen, "I know the meaning of Lu Dao, and you also know that I will not allow it, not to mention, the most suitable person for this expedition is not you, but Nian Qianyao!" When he said these three words, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Yinzhen's face, which made people shudder.
