Chapter 246: Pretending to be crazy and stupid
"Your Majesty, we haven't found a reason to abolish King Yan, so we can't directly send Li Jinglong to drive the army to Beiping for the time being."
Under Zhu Yunwen's acquiescence, Qi Tai directly began to discuss the strategy of dealing with Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
"King Yan has always been cautious. In order to please him, Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu gave precious and rare objects many times, but they were all returned by him one by one. During the Hu Weiyong case and the Lanyu case, tens of thousands of people were implicated, and the royal family was not spared, but King Yan was left alone. The king of Jin, Zhu Yi, was at odds with him when he was alive, and in order to seize his handle, the king of Jin sent people to infiltrate the palace of the king of Yan, but found nothing for several years. The depth of the Yan King is unfathomable. The minister thought that he must not startle the snake when dealing with King Yan, otherwise not only would he not be able to hit the snake, but he would also be bitten back. ”
"Well, Qi Shangshu has a point!" Under Qi Tai's affectionate and lucrative explanation, Zhu Yunwen completely left Zhu Di's crying behind.
He quickly adjusted his state and set his sights on the most difficult and urgent matters, which were essential qualities of being an emperor.
He wasn't good enough, but he knew he could do better.
"The art of slashing, the way of heaven and earth. If you want to close it, you will be secret. In the name of official transfer, he replaced the administrator of Beiping and secretly spied on the truth of King Yan. Zhu Yunwen put forward his own opinion.
"The emperor is wise! The minister thought that the imperial court must seize control of Beiping, but it must be done in stages. First of all, the imperial court appointed the political envoy of Beiping and the commander of the capital. This move can not only suppress and deter King Yan, but also reduce part of King Yan's military power. ”
After that, he sent officers to garrison Kaiping, and transferred the troops under the jurisdiction of King Yan in the Northern Plain out of the fortress; sent officers to train troops in Shanhaiguan and Linqing; Transferred the Beiping and Yongqing Second Guards to Zhangde and Shunde, so as to be foolproof. King Yan's wings were all removed, and the imperial army surrounded him again, even if he had three heads and six arms, he would no longer have the power to return to the sky! ”
"Shangshu's plan is clever!" Mei Yin, the commander of the horses, praised it.
"The soldiers said that they knew themselves and their opponents, so they first sent our people over to monitor King Yan's every move, and then took advantage of the situation to seize his military power and surround Beiping. Preemptively, then preemptively. Those who control people will hold power, and those who control others will lose their lives! ”
As the secretary of the military department, Qi Tai naturally knows the most about the scheduling of military affairs. Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru nodded frequently, they didn't expect Qi Tai to come up with a complete plan in such a short period of time, and they couldn't help but throw themselves into the five bodies that Qi Tai admired.
"Well, Qi Shangshu, let's do it! Do you have the right person in mind? Zhu Yunwen asked.
"Zhang Hao, the squire of the Ministry of Works, can be appointed as the political envoy of Beiping. Both commanded Xie Gui and Zhang Xin to go together, and served as the commander of Beiping. Song Zhongtun, the governor of the capital, was stationed in Kaiping, Geng Rong trained his troops in Shanhaiguan, and Xu Kai trained his troops in Linqing. Qi Tai replied fluently.
Not only the military department, but the names of all the court officials had a place in his mind.
Zhu Yunwen hurriedly approved the holy decree, and the military force of the imperial court quickly rushed to Beiping, dotted around Zhu Di.
Midsummer is half a month earlier than usual, and the lotus flowers happily open their petals, revealing the delicate stamens and proud lotus canopy.
Bees and butterflies flocked to the pool, glancing over the pool countless times, waiting for the moment to come.
Zhu Di was wearing a dirty and torn cotton jacket, which was incompatible with the fresh summer.
He had been wearing this padded jacket for several months, and he had never left his body for a moment, eating, sleeping, walking, and even if he was alone in the room, the thick padded jacket still weighed heavily on his body.
He didn't care, it wasn't bitter at all.
He was in no hurry to escape from the torn jacket, and waited patiently from beginning to end.
"County Lord, go and take a look! His Royal Highness refused to eat, he dropped the bowl, and scolded the maid and cried! Generals and masters can't help it either! ”
A maid hurriedly ran to Xu Miaojin's room, out of breath, dancing with her hands.
Xu Miaojin's hand holding the brush shook, and a huge ink dot smeared on the rice paper, blending with the word "ancient" that she had just written.
"Where's my sister?"
She put the pen on the pen holder haphazardly, and the round brush had not yet secured itself, and she was already out of the door.
"The princess is sick, and the slave doesn't dare to call her!" Tears in the maid's eyes will burst out at any moment.
"Don't cry! Brother-in-law will be fine! Xu Miaojin grimaced.
She didn't know Zhu Di, Hongshi and Daoyan's plan to lure the enemy, how long Zhu Di was crazy, she was worried about it for as long as she was a brother-in-law, and also for her sister.
Sister Xu Miaoyun stayed by Zhu Di's side every day, her round face became thin, and her charming smile gradually disappeared.
She took the trouble to talk to Zhu Di, although every word she said was a torture, in exchange for silence and madness.
Xu Miaojin can't help, even Hongshi, a miracle doctor, can't cure her brother-in-law's illness, what else can she do?
However, she did not leave Beiping because of this, and accompanied them to suffer, which was the only thing she could do.
"Brother-in-law!" Xu Miaojin rushed into the house, her body shook a little, and the chaotic threshold tripped her.
"Be careful!" Redstone screams.
Zhu Di, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, was stunned, but did not raise his head, and continued to concentrate on stuffing the rice grains scattered on the edge of the bed into his mouth one by one.
The floor and bed were full of rice, and the maid with tears in her eyes was squatting on the ground to clean up.
Hongshi's face was bitter and worried, but his astute eyes did not let go of any subtle expressions of Xu Miaojin.
He knew that Zhu Di's inner pain at this time was no less than Xu Miaojin's, which made him feel pleasure.
Although Redstone laughed at himself and warned himself from time to time, he still couldn't get rid of the love of men and women.
"Your Highness, Miaojin has come to see you." Hongshi walked up to Zhu Di and whispered.
"Let's go! Walk! She's the bad guy and she hits me! ”
Zhu Di picked up a grain of rice and threw it at Xu Miaojin, trying to get Xu Miaojin to leave here quickly, making a fool of himself in front of Xu Miaojin was the only thing that annoyed him.
Hongshi bit his lip, deliberately not letting Zhu Di be satisfied.
"Myojin is a good friend of ours, and we used to play together, hunting, kemari, sumo, and pole climbing...... Your Highness, do you remember? ”
"Brother-in-law! I'm Miaojin! Xu Miaojin's tears burst out of her eyes.
She sat opposite Zhu Di and reached out to dust off the scattered grains of rice.
None of the rice grains were willing to listen to her, so she was angry and smacked the bed board heavily.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you? What is the strength of a bowl of rice? Shouldn't you eat when you're hungry? If you don't want to eat it, don't eat it! Sister, because you're sick, you can't go on like this! ”
"Go away! Go away! Zhu Di shouted hysterically, summoned up his unique courage, pushed Xu Miaojin away with one hand, pushed away the red stone with the other, turned around, hugged the head of the bed against the board, and buried his head in the crook of his arm.
