Chapter 161: Autumn Wind and Autumn Rain Sorrow Kill

In late autumn, it is not yet winter.

Bad news from all sides reached Jingshi.

First of all, Peng Chengbo went.

Peng Cheng Bo is the maiden family of the Empress Dowager, and the current Peng Cheng Bo is the nephew of the Empress Dowager. His death made the Empress Dowager even more sad.

Within a year, King Yue died and Peng Chengbo died. King Xiang is far away, and there is almost no day to see each other again in this life.

The Empress Dowager is absolutely pressing. With the gradually cooling weather, my body and bones fell ill again.

Since then, the bones of the body have been good and bad, lingering on the sickbed.

Of course, although the Empress Dowager is sick, the disease is not so serious that she can't get out of bed, and it is normal for the elderly to feel uncomfortable.

It's just that the Empress Dowager didn't want to interfere with Zhu Qizhen's handling of the government, so she simply got sick.

No one was seen again.

There is only one thing to do, and that is to choose an empress for the emperor.

The Empress Dowager was very dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, although Empress Dowager Sun had already bowed her head to the Empress Dowager and asked for peace every day, which was extremely filial in form.

But the Empress Dowager is still haunted by what happened after the abolition of the year.

It's not that I grasp this matter, but I feel extremely uncomfortable that there is such a big stain on the name of Emperor Xuanzong behind him.

So, she put a lot of effort into this matter.

Zhu Qizhen encountered something and went to ask the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager diverted the topic to the post-election. even deliberately said to the people in the palace: "I'm old and don't want to take care of things anymore, and the emperor has grown up, so I will enjoy a few years of happiness." ”

These words naturally reached Zhu Qizhen's ears.

Zhu Qizhen believed that the Empress Dowager really didn't want to take care of things.

Of course, even if Zhu Qizhen knew, he couldn't change the form, and the folds he reviewed every day were placed in Cining Palace that night.

Wang Zhen said that these folds were almost where they were placed, and the next day, they were moved from somewhere. I didn't even move.

The Empress Dowager also said that she would not let Wang Zhen move this thing around.

But Zhu Qizhen insisted.

However, Zhu Qizhen didn't want to spend more time on this matter. Because of all kinds of bad news, Zhu Qizhen has long been buried.

There are three main pieces of bad news, one of which is that Uliangha is unstable.

Although Uliangha is subordinate to the Watts, they are an independent tribe under the Watts. Or more accurately, it was the dehuan that Uliangha surrendered to at the beginning, not the first.

With the death of Tuohuan, the influence of the tile spur was greatly reduced. Uliangha doesn't know how loyal he is to the Watts.

Of course, Uliangha is not very loyal to the tile spur, let alone the Ming Dynasty.

So this autumn, Uliangha began to harass the border frequently.

Because in the spring, Jinyiwei's intelligence network in the tile spur suffered a major setback, and Jin Yiwei's intelligence monitoring of the tile spur has been rebuilt, and it has not been figured out.

Uliangha's southward behavior is the grassy valley of Uliangha itself, or the instigation of the tile spur behind it.

However, it is not too late to find out after these circumstances.

The most important thing now is to fight.

Second, it is the resurgence of chaos in Guangxi.

Guangxi was not a stable place, especially in the area of Datengxia, which was repeatedly chaotic, and it was only in the Chenghua period that it was completely pacified.

During the Xuande period, the servants led by Datengxia in Guangxi rebelled repeatedly, and the imperial court took a lot of effort to settle down.

Among them, the hero who guarded Guangxi was Huaiyuan Boshanyun.

The reason why Guangxi is chaotic is also directly related to Huaiyuan Boshanyun.

It's not that Huaiyuan Boshanyun did anything wrong.

It's that the veteran is gone.

Yama Yun died in the third year of Orthodoxy. It has only been a year now, and the various ministries in Guangxi have sprouted their old ways. If there were mountains and clouds, it would not be so.

It's just that the famous generals are withering, which is so cruel.

The third is that the Songpan chaos has arisen again.

Seeing the resurgence of the Songpan war, Zhu Qizhen had a big headache.

Because the Songpan chaos is not one or two times, and if you think about it, this is the third time. There were two in the Xuande period, as mentioned above.

Jiang Gui stood out in the Battle of Songpan and was appreciated by the imperial court.

Zhu Qizhen is not afraid of big battles, like Luchuan, hundreds of thousands of troops are arrayed to fight, Zhu Qizhen is relaxed, but Songpan is located here in the junction of Sichuan and Gansu, between the mountains, and only one or two thousand horses can be used.

And because the Ming army did not do it authentically before.

Now, the people here in Songpan have long been at odds with the imperial court. As soon as the army arrived, it was naturally pacified, and as soon as the army left, the war would resume in a few years.

In the battle of Zhu Qizhen against Luchuan, he attached so much importance to the aftermath, naturally because of Songpan's lessons from the past.

These three things, almost rushed together, and passed into the palace.

After Zhu Qizhen saw it, the first thing he did was regret. Regretting letting Yang Rong return to his hometown and dealing with these things is Yang Rong's strength.

However, fortunately, Zhang Fu is still there.

Maybe Zhang Fu's understanding of the place is not as good as Yang Rong's, but his understanding of the army is still above Yang Rong, so Zhang Fu is enough to solve Zhu Qizhen's doubts.

So Zhu Qizhen immediately summoned Zhang Fu to enter the court.

Zhang Fu has been busy with martial arts for a while.

Zhang Fu had already made it clear that he had emptied a barracks in the capital as a station for martial arts.

Although the location has been decided, there is still a period of time for the officers who have come from the guards to take up their posts, so the start of school is also scheduled for next year.

Zhang Fu saw these three urgent reports and said: "Wu Liangha is not to be afraid, Yang Hong is enough to break it." ”

Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and said, "But the defender of the monolith fort? ”

Kaiping and Daning are the two fists of the Ming Dynasty that stretched out to the grassland, but they were all abolished during the period from Yongle to Xuande. Two internal moves.

Needless to say, Daning directly emptied hundreds of miles, but Kaiping left an elbow, and this elbow was the monolithic fort.

If you look at the map, you will know that in the planning of the Great Wall, the monolith fort is a prominent place, almost three sides are grasslands, but the south is the dragon gatekeeper.

Yes, it's the Dragon Gate Guard of the Dragon Gate Inn. Even the Dragon Gate Inn was inspired by the director because of the history After Yu Qian was killed, his son exiled the Dragon Gate Guard.

Therefore, this place is very important, and Yang Hong has been able to guard here for many years, and even Zhu Qizhen has heard of it.

Zhang Fu said: "Exactly, Yang Hong is hereditary from a hundred households, has been guarding the monolith fort for several years, brave and good at fighting, the best at riding and riding is a general, he is not afraid of Wuliangha." ”

Zhang Fu didn't care about Uliangha at all.

Because throughout the history of Uliangha, at least until now, the Ming Dynasty has almost never lost the war against Uliangha. Even Emperor Xuanzong went out of the fortress, and he broke Wuliangha.

Uliangha is even organized in the imperial court, and the so-called Duoyan Sanwei is also.

Zhu Qizhen said: "How old is Yang Hong this year? ”

Zhang Fu listened, silently estimated, and said: "The minister hasn't paid attention, it seems to be fifty miles away, the last time the minister saw him, it was when he was under the command of Marquis Yangwu." ”

"He's a good man."

Zhu Qizhen listened and sighed slightly in his heart. Fifty miles away.

This shows that Yang Hong doesn't know how many years he can play.

In fact, he had already expected in his heart, and all the people he could play were veterans. It's just Shanyun's death, but Zhu Qizhen's heart is full of a sense of crisis. There are mountains and clouds, Guangxi is as solid as a rock, and once the mountains and clouds are gone, chaos will arise again.

What if it happened again?

Zhu Qizhen pressed down the worry in his heart, and continued to ask: "Wuliangha is not afraid, and then the war in the southwest will start, and now that Songpan and Guangxi Tusi are in turmoil, will it cause Guizhou Tusi to also be restless." ”

"The battle for Luchuan is going to be delayed."

Zhu Qizhen was not only worried about delay, but also worried about the fact that this incident itself was the chain reaction of Luchuan's defeat of the Ming army in Yunnan.

Now it seems that there is no problem, because Guangxi, as well as Songpan, are not on the logistics artery of Zhengluchuan.

Whether from Sichuan or Huguang to Yunnan, you have to pass through Guizhou.

However, there are many toasts in Guizhou, no less than Yunnan. Once something really happens in Guizhou?

But it's hard to say.

Even if there is a problem with the grain road in Guizhou, but Yunnan is defeated, it is estimated that the southwest will be full of fires, not for me.

When the time comes, I want to settle down, but I don't know how much effort it will take.

This is the deepest worry in Zhu Qizhen's heart.
