Chapter 687: A Naughty Smile
"What? Will you go too? Why are you a girl going to such a dangerous place in the paddock? Murong Qing was taken aback and looked at Jiarou suspiciously.
Jiarou smiled mischievously.
Jiarou had already begged her father and mother, and her father relented and said that as long as any of the royal brothers were willing to accompany Jiarou in the paddock, Jiarou would be allowed to participate in the autumn hunt.
The eldest brother, the third brother, the sixth brother and the seventh brother will definitely be busy in order to win the title of autumn headhunter at that time, the fourth brother is too timid and quiet to be funny at all, the ninth brother is too young and I have to take care of him, only the fifth brother is the most suitable to accompany Jiarou.
Since the fifth brother has agreed to go to the hunting ground, the fifth brother is not interested in pleasing his father anyway, so it is better to take Jiarou to play together. ”
Murong Qing was made to laugh and cry by Princess Jiarou, so he could only shake his head and admit that he had been cheated.
"Fifth brother agreed to play with Jiarou? Then I can go back to the palace and tell my father, the fifth brother can't go back, otherwise it will be the crime of bullying the king. ”
Murong Qing smiled bitterly, but he was helpless to take this young girl.
"Princess Jiarou, rest assured, Murong Qing doesn't dare to bear such a big crime."
Seeing that Murong Qing was completely obedient to herself, Princess Jiarou clapped her hands happily like a child and jumped up, circling around Murong Qing.
She jumped in front of Mo Xuan again, lowered her head and asked a little shyly.
"Will Prince Mo Xuan go to the autumn hunt together?"
"The Huainan Royal Mansion has received the will of the Holy Autumn Hunt, and Mo Xuan will go with him."
Hearing that Mo Xuan would also go, Jiarou suddenly smiled, and her pink carved face was like a peach blossom blooming.
In the palace, Murong Tuo frowned, and anxiously paced back and forth in the upper study.
"Li Shuyu!"
"The old slave is here!"
"Quickly go and notify the right and left ministers, the military department, Shangshu and all the generals above the second rank, and the middle hall of the Wuji Palace."
"The old minister takes the order!" Murong Tuo's personal attendant Li Shuyu, who had been his personal attendant for many years, realized the urgency of the situation and quickly took the order.
He has followed Murong Tuo for many years, and he has never seen his master so anxious, it seems that this time the situation is serious and urgent.
About an hour later, a group of high-ranking officials and important ministers of Tianli Kingdom gathered in the Wuji Palace, waiting for Murong Tuo.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Zhong Aiqing is flat!" Murong Tuo came out anxiously, he didn't even bring his court clothes and crown, and after completing the etiquette simply, he went straight to the point.
"I received an urgent report from the border pass today, the Northern Wei Dynasty raided Yanbei City, broke through the city, robbed grain, baggage, cattle and sheep, and killed all the men in the city, and many women and children were taken captive.
According to the information sent back by the spies, a large number of Northern Wei troops were found north of the Pingxing grassland, with a large number of people and a rough estimate of about one million, which seemed to be heading in the direction of our Tianli border.
It seems that the ambition of the wolf son of the Northern Wei Dynasty is not dead, and this time it seems that he is going to fight to the death with me. ”
"Your Majesty, Emperor Longsheng of the Northern Wei Dynasty has been prosecuting the throne, and several princes have openly fought to seize the throne.
In recent years, I have only heard that the Northern Wei Dynasty has been in turmoil for many years, and the people are not living, how can they recover their troops so quickly and covet our Tianli, should this matter be investigated more? Zheng Yiqian, the left minister, said as he held the wat board forward.
The hussar general Wan Lide clasped his fists and saluted, and stepped forward to speak.
"Your Majesty is aware that the minister will rush back to Lingyang City from the north today, and there is still something to be presented to Your Majesty."
Murong Tuo made a gesture of grace, and the chamberlain waiting outside the hall brought in a scroll, which turned out to be a banner after it was spread out, and I saw that the flag was embroidered with a black goshawk totem with wings spreading.
"Black goshawk? Isn't this exactly the hallmark of the Northern Wei royal family. ”
Yu Tingyan, the secretary of the military department, recognized this sign and said in surprise.
"Where did General Wan get this?" Wan Lide waved his hand to Murong Tuo.
"Your Majesty, this thing was obtained from Yanbei City.
It seems that the surprise attack on Yanbei City this time was not the Northern Wei Dynasty rangers, but the organized Northern Wei elite soldiers. ”
Shen Wenzhen bowed to Murong Tuo and stepped forward to say.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has led the troops at the border for many years, and it is rare to see this black goshawk totem, it is reported that there is a force in the Northern Wei army that only waits for the emperor himself to move, and it is to use this black goshawk as a banner symbol.
This team is the most elite and invincible, and its whereabouts are mysterious and unpredictable, which is really difficult to deal with.
In so many years, Lao Chen has seen this totem twice.
One was in the Great War sixteen years ago, and one is today. ”
"Zhong Aiqing, my Tianli spies lurking in the Northern Wei Dynasty sent back the news that Gao Xu, the youngest son of Gao Changzhen, has ascended the throne as the emperor, and the year name is Qianding, Gao Xu has recently pacified the melee of the kings in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and executed several brothers and uncles and nephews who took the lead in making waves by thunderous means."
"Gao Xu, this person is said to have been talented since he was a child, and he followed the Northern Wei army to fight in the north at the age of ten.
Although this person is still young, not as weak as the crown, but he is tough and scheming, it seems that this time, Gao Xu wants to take advantage of the momentum of the new throne to deliberately provoke a war with my Tianli, so as to divert the domestic conflict. ”
The right minister Dugu Gong held the wat board and stepped forward and said.
"I heard that the new supreme commander of the Northern Wei army is Gao Xu's uncle Gao Changxin, who has done his best to help Gao Xu ascend to the throne, and is now entrusted with the important task by Gao Xu, holding a national military talisman.
Previously, my Tianli army did not fight against this person, and no one in Tianli knew the details of this person. ”
Shen Yi, the general of the cavalry, stepped forward and said.
"This tragedy in Yanbei City, if it was really committed by the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the intention is to be together? Yanbei is far away from the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, so it is probably another conspiracy to stir up the army and make a big splash.
What do you think? ”
"Returning to Your Majesty, like this, Weichen speculated that Gao Xu was sending a signal to Your Majesty that a major war between Tianli and the Northern Wei Dynasty was imminent."
Zheng Yiqian, the left minister, said.
"Gao Xu first ascended to the throne, the domestic situation was undecided, and the people's hearts were unstable, it seems that he wanted to take advantage of this war to establish a prestige in the Northern Wei Dynasty."
Yu Tingyan, the secretary of the military department, said.
"Gao Xu is vicious and cunning, I can't take it lightly."
Shen Wenzhen, the king of Zhengbei, stepped forward and said.
"What Aiqing said is very true, since Gao Xu wants to challenge Tianli, I will give him some color to see! Shen Wenzhen! ”
"The minister is here!"
"Return to Northern Xinjiang immediately, enter a state of combat readiness with the Wuwei Army, and keep an eye on the movements of the Northern Wei Army at any time."
"Weichen Command!"
"Yu Tingyan!"
"The minister is here!"
"I want you to secretly prepare for military supplies to provide protection for this war, and I have a lot of eyeliner from the Northern Wei Dynasty in the territory, so I must not let people find out about any changes.
If we startle the snake, our army will lose the opportunity to attack. ”
"Weichen Command!"
"Zheng Yiqian!"
"The minister is here!"
"The Yanbei tragedy will soon spread all over the territory of Tianli, and the mouth of the people should be sparse and not blocked.
However, we have been in a truce with the Northern Wei Dynasty for many years, and this sudden change may cause panic among the people, which is not conducive to the stability of the situation in our Tianli territory.
I have assigned you to be in charge of handling this matter, guiding public opinion in the country, calming the unrest of the people, and encouraging the momentum of hatred and hatred from top to bottom.
For those who deliberately spread rumors and disturb the hearts of the people, they will be decided! ”
"Weichen Command!"
"Wan Lide!"
"The minister is here!"
"This time Yanbei City suffered this catastrophe, my heart is painful, and the world will be shaken.
I have sent you to secretly investigate this matter, find out the real motive of the Northern Wei Dynasty for causing this tragedy, and give me the truth to the people. ”
"Weichen Command!"
"Shen Yi!"
"The minister is here!"
"The women and children in Yanbei City are now being taken captive by the Northern Wei Dynasty, and I have sent you to secretly search for the direction in which they were taken captive and try your best to rescue them.
I am a people, and I do not want to see anyone displaced. ”
"Weichen Command!" Murong Tuo gave an order to complete the strategic deployment against the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Tianli and the Northern Wei Dynasty will no longer be peaceful.
Shen Wenzhen retreated from the dynasty and returned to the palace, and began to prepare for returning to Northern Xinjiang, he did not say much about his family, only mentioned that the backlog of military affairs in Northern Xinjiang needed to be dealt with, after all, the return to Beijing to handle the princess's wedding has been delayed for a long time.
Shen Wenzhen went to the confinement room to find Shen Wenque, only to see Shen Wenque sitting alone in the room, his cloak was not combed, his robe was scattered, holding a wine jug and drinking with his head up, letting the old wine flow down his face and neck, staining the blood-like red robe, the red became more and more bewitching at the moment, as if he had gained life.
"Shen Wenque!" Shen Wenque heard someone calling him, so he raised his head, found that it was his father, and lowered his head to sip alone.
"Shen Wenque, you were stamped and drunk, where do you still look like the commander of the Wuwei Army?"
