The people who are powerful in the north can only be the former generals of the Liang Kingdom.

Xiao Yuan only thought about it for a moment, and then understood who he was talking about, but there was obviously a trace of worry on his face.

Seeing this, Shangguan Wenruo said: "Tang Yue, after the real famous general, his grandfather Tang Yuchun, followed Liang Jinggong, but Rong Di in the north, after forty-two battles of all sizes, none of them were defeated, the official went to the north of the town, and when he arrived in Tang Yue, he was in the battle of pacifying the Northern Desert, driving hundreds of miles, and the Beidi who fought was frightened, so that the Rong Di tribe only listened to its name and was unable to form a division. ”

"The three generations of the Tang family, as far as the nation is concerned, have immortal merits, they guarded the north gate of the Central Plains, and the king should abandon the previous suspicions and reuse Tang Yue."

Xiao Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Why doesn't this king want to reuse Tang Yue." ”

Shangguan Wenruo understood what he meant, and immediately said: "Don't worry, the king, although Tang Yue is unruly, he has national righteousness in his heart. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

But at this time, another minister stood up and said respectfully: "King, Weichen thinks that what Lord Shangguan said is really ridiculous, Tang Yue was originally a Liang general, and when he attacked Liang, Xue Wu led his troops to surrender, and only he led 3,000 horsemen to fight out of the encirclement, which shows his heart." ”

"That's why it's even more useful." Shangguan Wenruo retorted.

The minister said: "Tang Yue refuses to submit to my king, how can he be reused, not to mention, he is still in Chu State, and he is worshiped as a guest by the king of Chu." ”

"None of this is important, the important thing is that with Tang Yue in the northern Xinjiang, it is enough to defeat an army of 100,000." Shangguan Wenruo said.

"One general can defeat a thousand armies, and it is still credible, but one person can defeat a hundred thousand troops, Lord Shangguan, it is too exaggerated." The minister was unimpressed.

"The King." Shangguan Wenruo was a little anxious.

"Alright." Xiao Yuan waved his hand and stopped the argument between the two: "Tang Yue's matter, this king agrees with what Lord Shangguan said, Beidi is different from others, and Tang Yue must guard the northern frontier." ”

As the so-called name of the person and the shadow of the tree, Beidi may not be afraid of the Qin army, or the king of Qin, but for Tang Yue, they are definitely afraid from the bottom of their hearts.

After saying this, he frowned slightly and said: "But what this king is most worried about now is not Xirong and Beidi, but the ghost clan's side, with the character of King Huan, Sun Qi has been excluded again, and I am afraid that the Huan army is not the opponent of the ghost army." ”

Seeing him mention this, someone immediately answered: "Now the 400,000 ghost army is rapidly encroaching on the territory of Huan State, no matter whether King Huan can stop it or not, the war will not affect our country, even if Huan Country is destroyed, the next target of the ghost army will only be the Spirit Kingdom, therefore, my king can not pay attention to it." ”

"This is the real absurdity!" Liu Changqing said in a solemn voice: "The ghost clan is a foreign enemy, after entering the Central Plains, the places where they pass are like mountains, full of evil deeds, and people and gods are angry!" The kings of the Central Plains, all of whom are one in China, how can they watch their compatriots of the nation being slaughtered and ignore them! ”

"And if the kings stay out of the matter, they will die with cold lips and teeth! At that time, once the ghost clan occupies the Huan country, it will definitely respond to Beidi, and then even Xirong, and foreign tribes will enter one after another, and Huaxia will be destroyed in one fell swoop! ”

As he spoke, he also looked at the minister with cold eyes: "Lord Wei said that it has nothing to do with the Qin State, dare to ask the foot, is it from the Huaxia clan?" ”

When the minister said this, his old face immediately blushed, and he laughed, and stood back again.

This is no longer a question of the civil war in the Central Plains, but a question of national security.

Liu Changqing's words also made many ministers present silent, and then, Liu Yuzhi came out of the ranks, arched his hand and said: "The minister agrees with Lord Liu that the struggle for hegemony among the countries is the internal contradiction of our nation, and how can foreign enemies invade it, at this time, the king should be the first to stand up, announce to the world, show the position of Qin, and invite the king of heaven to put aside the past contradictions, and work together to drive away foreign enemies!" ”

As soon as his words fell, Liu Changqing immediately surrendered his hand: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

Regarding this kind of thing, even Jiang Yi, who has always been at odds with Liu Changqing, also stood with him, and said: "Regarding the invasion of the ghost clan, I won't say anything about whether my Qin State will send troops or not, but the attitude must be clear!" ”

"Yes." After listening to this, Xiao Yuan nodded and said: "Put the nation first, there is nothing to say about this, immediately use the king's edict to announce the world." In addition, this king will enter the palace and meet the Son of Heaven. ”

Next, after discussing the defense of Qin Pass, Xiao Yuan also waved his hand to disperse the court.

In the afternoon of the same day, the palace of the king of Qin.

Xiao Yuan was not wearing a royal robe, but a casual dress with a hosta in his hair.

However, the forbidden army of the palace is his guard, and he is a veteran under him, so they all know him.

"See the King!" In the palace, the commander of the forbidden army clenched his fists and bent down.

Xiao Yuan waved his hand, and as he walked forward, he asked casually, "Where is the Son of Heaven?" ”

"Back to the king, you should be in the concubine's bedroom." The Commander of the Praetorian Army followed respectfully.

"Oh." Xiao Yuan responded, and asked again: "Nothing has happened in the palace recently, right?" ”

"There is no circumstance, all is ...... peaceful"

The two chatted and walked towards the palace.

The concubine's bedroom.

Shang Rui, the son of heaven, was beside the concubine, half-hugging and half-coaxing something.

The latter sat in front of the dresser, with a look of resentment:

"Your Majesty, are you going to do it forever?"

"This, isn't this very good, concubine." Shang Rui said: "We eat well, live well, and are carefree, so why think about that." ”

"But the concubines want to go out of the palace to see, but they are all blocked by the forbidden army, I am a dignified concubine, and I still need to inform the king of Qin and allow him to agree!" The concubine said dissatisfiedly.

"Oh, concubine, don't be angry......"

Shang Rui didn't know what to say, so he could only keep persuading.

The last time Dong Hua's conspiracy was revealed, King Qin was furious, involving so many people, I don't know how many imperial ministers were beheaded all over the house, but Shang Rui was scared a lot, and during that period of time, every time he saw King Qin, he would almost unconsciously break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, Xiao Yuan has been busy recently, and he hasn't seen him for many days, which also makes him feel a lot more at ease.

He tried his best to please him, but he coaxed and coaxed, but the concubine still snorted dissatisfiedly and turned away.

"Oh, concubine......" Shang Rui was in a hurry, leaning beside him, and couldn't help but smile smiling, where is there an emperor.

"That King Qin is arrogant and arrogant, and he kills people at every turn, who dares to provoke him, but fortunately, he has not entered the palace during this time, and I really hope that he will never come for the best."

But as soon as he said this, the old eunuch who had been in the imperial court for many years hurriedly asked to see him, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, King Qin is here." ”

"What!?" When Shang Rui heard this, he was shocked, he was really afraid of something, but the concubine was obviously bright.
