Chapter 325: The Death of the Suzaku

It was the time of the supper, Emperor Dade stayed in the West Palace to eat, and while eating, the eunuch Chunxi quickly came to report, saying that the news of the Jiangnan rebels was urgent, and Emperor Dade put down the dishes and chopsticks to say goodbye to the queen mother, and left in a hurry. Looking at the back of the emperor leaving, Tang Guifei got up to see him off, and was secretly sad after sitting down.

When Empress Dowager Zhang saw it, she took Tang Guifei's hand and said: "Your Majesty has been much more tired than before this year, and the queen will definitely be embarrassed by you when she enters the palace in the future." You must be of the same mind as the emperor, don't make trouble for him, and don't work against the queen. ”

Tang Guifei wept and said: "Queen Mother, you know that Your Majesty pities me the most, how can I distract him." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang sighed, Tang Guifei is the wife of Xuanyuan Zixiao, she is knowledgeable, virtuous and filial, and Xuanyuan Zixiao is also husband and wife, and she will never make any trouble for her son. Although Tang Guifei was born in a small family, and her father is now only a husband, the Tang family has an excellent family education.

Empress Dowager Zhang also knew that her daughter-in-law was wronged, so she treated her better and better.

Emperor Dade returned to the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Shi Yong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, Zhao Bu, the right attendant of the Ministry of War, and the four members of the Ministry of War, Shi Taien. Emperor Dade hurriedly said: "What happened?" ”

Shi Yong stepped forward and said: "The Vermilion Bird Legion, the commander, Heyuan Bo Zhao Jie, was assassinated. ”

Emperor Dade's body was in a trance for a while, and he took two or three steps back, and Chunxi hurriedly supported the emperor. Zhao Jie led the 50,000 Suzaku Legion to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan, even if there was a great change in Longdu, Zhao Jie did not dare to leave Jiangnan, lest once he left, the rebels in this place would become bigger and sweep the whole country. But Emperor Dade never expected that He Yuanbo would be assassinated, and he hurriedly asked, "Who assassinated him?" ”

"The assassin is unknown, but he must be a traitor of the Heavenly Fire Sect behind the scenes." Gu Hongzhen said.

Emperor Dade said: "Who is the leader of the Vermilion Bird Legion now?" ”

Gu Hongzhen said: "Deputy Marshal Hengyang Hou Liu Yi." ”

Emperor Dade asked, "How is this person?" ”

Shi Yong said: "This person is an old and serious person, although he has no ability to fight for merit, but there is a law to defend the land, after the accidental death of Heyuanbo, the Marquis of Hengyang immediately restrained the three armies, contracted the front, and did not give the rebels a chance to counterattack. ”

Emperor Dade frowned tightly and said, "It seems that I can't rely on this Marquis of Hengyang, so I have to find another good person to command the Vermilion Bird Legion." ”

Shi Yong said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a strategy to quell the Jiangnan rebellion." ”

"Aiqing said it."

"Your Majesty can implore Dushan Bo to lead the White Tiger Army to quell the chaos and transfer the Vermilion Bird Legion back to Longdu." Shi Yong said, "The Vermilion Bird Legion has been away for five years, and its troops are tired, so it must be repaired. ”

Emperor Dade nodded and said, "Chunxi, send someone to urgently summon Dushanbo into the palace." ”

"Whoa."

Dushan Boben was resting at home, and at this time he was urgently summoned into the palace by the emperor, knowing that there must be something important, so he took his two righteous sons, Yang Zhen of the double-sword tiger and Luo Xiu, the blue-eyed tiger, into the palace. The commander of the forbidden army was the three-eyed tiger Li Canglan, who learned that his father-in-law had entered the palace overnight, and immediately stepped forward to ask for peace. Dushanbo asked what happened while walking, Li Canglan didn't know, but all the important members of the military department rushed to the palace, and it must be a major military event.

Entering the Heart Cultivation Palace, Emperor Dade hurriedly stepped forward, his eyes red and said, "Uncle Dushan, you are here, how is this good?" ”

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

"Heyuan Bo Zhao Jie, assassinated."

"Huh?" Dushan Bo was taken aback, and couldn't help but hold the hand of Emperor Dade and said, "This ...... When did this happen? ”

"It happened three days ago, in Luyang City." Shi Yong, the secretary of the military department, stepped forward and said, "The Suzaku Legion is tired of three horses and passed back the urgent report. ”

Dushanbo took a deep breath and said for a long time: "I have been close friends with Zhao Jie for many years, when he went to the south to quell the rebellion, I also asked him to enjoy the snow and drink in the thunder mountain when he came back. Who is so bold? ”

Shi Yong said: "The case is being investigated, probably it should be the rebels' so-called, the evil beast of the Tianhuo Sect." ”

"Humph! If the Heavenly Fire Sect is not eliminated, the empire will be unstable. Dushan Bo said, "Poor Heyuan Bo, when he was in his old age, he ended up dying in a foreign land......

Everyone burst into tears, compared to Heyuanbo and Dushanbo, who are called the two pillars of the empire, how could they have imagined that now Heyuanbo would die in Jiangnan, and the sky of the empire would change color.

Including the emperor, the ministers were silent, but the little eunuch Chunxi saw that everyone was tired, and hurriedly asked people to send chairs. The emperor beckoned everyone to sit down, and after everyone was seated, no one spoke.

After a long time, Dushan Bo sighed, and finally spoke first: "You can't be without a commander in the army for a day, presumably at this time, it should be the acting marshal of Hengyang to govern the army." ”

"What Uncle said is exact." Shi Yongdao.

Du Shanbo shook his head and said: "Liu Yi, Marquis of Hengyang, this person is good at defending and not attacking, and the important task of pacifying Jiangnan cannot fall on his head." ”

Emperor Dade hurriedly asked: "Uncle thinks, who can be the handsome of Suzaku?" ”

Du Shanbo frowned, thought about a few people in his heart, and felt that it was inappropriate to turn it over and over, so he could only sigh and say: "If the king of Nanyang County has no disease in his legs, he should be able to take on this important responsibility." ”

Shi Yong and the others scolded in their hearts, who didn't know the king of Nanyang County, if the king of Nanyang County had no disability in his legs, he was afraid that he would pick the four forbidden army commanders. Du Shanbo turned his head to look at Shi Yong and asked, "What are the regulations of the Ministry of War?" ”

Shi Yong said: "The military department can't come up with an idea for a while, this Jiangnan rebel army is cunning and cunning, and the Vermilion Bird Legion has spent five years looking for a decisive battle, but it has never been able to find their main force." It's been five years, five years, and the Jiangnan rebels are like loaches, every time they escape from the Suzaku Legion, let alone a decisive battle. ”

Dushan Bo said angrily: "What do you do with all that nonsense, is there no way for the military department?" He looked at the people in the military department, and suddenly saw Shi Taien raise his head, then lowered his head again, and hurriedly pointed at Shi Taien and said: "Shi Shangshu, I think Ling Gongzi seems to have an opinion, people say that Shi Gongzi is the second Gu Yong, I want to listen to Shi Xiaozi's method." ”

Stein was about to be modest, but he heard Du Shanbo say: "If you can't help it, I don't think you need to be a member of the military department, lest others say that the corpses of the people in the military department are vegetarian meals, you say yes?" ”

Stein was not angry, smiled generously, stepped forward and bowed to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, uncle, the kid really has an immature little suggestion, and it will be fun to tell it to everyone." ”

"You say." Emperor Dade said busily.

Steyn said: "The rebels in Jiangnan are hidden in the people, my 50,000 Suzaku army is in the open, they are in the dark, as long as the army is in Jiangnan, the rebels will always be hidden underground." If the army released the rumor that it would withdraw to the camp of Longdu, the thieves would be ecstatic and think that they had won the court. In this way, the thieves will definitely not be at ease hiding underground, and they will definitely be exposed to the surface one after another, and then send a capable general to lead thousands of elites, and the Jiangnan thieves can be punished. ”
