After hearing the new holy decree from the imperial court, Xu Qingyan suddenly became excited and asked, "Could it be that the imperial court has sent a holy decree to reward the young master?" ”

After Zhao Junchen pondered for a moment, he shook his head lightly and said: "It is absolutely impossible, since the end of the Weishui War, only ten days have passed, even if the imperial court has agreed on my reward, it is impossible for the holy decree of the reward to reach the Huamachi camp so quickly." ”

Between Huamachi camp and the capital, the distance is as long as more than 2,300 li, not only the road is far away, the road environment is also extremely steep, you have to pass through the fire screen many times into the battle range of the Kou, a little unlucky will encounter the Mongolian cavalry that goes south to plunder, but also includes a large number of rugged mountain roads, the slightest carelessness will sprain the horse's hooves.

If the Huamachi camp wants to transmit a message to the center of the capital, even if the messengers change horses along the way without any unexpected delays, it will take at least seven or eight days to reach the capital.

What's more, the decision-making efficiency of the imperial court center was not very high, and it often took many days of heated debate to make a decision.

Therefore, the message transmission between the center of the capital and the Huamachi camp has an extremely obvious lag and delay, which makes people very uncomfortable.

According to Zhao Junchen's estimate, if the imperial court has a will to reward him, he is afraid that it will have to wait another seven or eight days to receive the news, and the minister who passed the decree may have just left the scope of Beizhili.

After hearing Zhao Junchen's answer, Xu Qingyan's expression was a little disappointed.

He couldn't wait to see the moment when Zhao Junchen was glorified, and he couldn't wait to leave Shaanxi and Gansu and return to the center of the capital.

After seeing the disappointment in Xu Qingyan's expression, Zhao Junchen shook his head again and said solemnly: "As early as more than twenty days ago, I sent a secret letter to the center of the imperial court to discuss the matter of the imperial court sending troops to recover the Hetao...... According to the time estimate, this time the holy decree should be decided by the imperial court, and this matter is also very important and far-reaching, but it cannot be neglected. ”

After speaking, Zhao Junchen had already stood up and walked out.

*

When Zhao Junchen came to the lobby of the Governor's Palace, he found that all the civil and military officials in Shaanxi and Gansu had already arrived.

After seeing Zhao Junchen's appearance, all the civil and military officials hurriedly got up to salute one after another, and behaved quite enthusiastically, but Zhao Junchen nodded to everyone quietly, and then sat down on the right side of the main seat.

Soon, Liang Fuchen also appeared in the main hall of the Governor's Palace.

Seeing Liang Fuchen's appearance, all the civil and military officials also stood up and saluted, but their attitudes were obviously colder than when they saw Zhao Junchen.

During this period, Zhao Junchen peeked at the change in Liang Fuchen's expression, and found that Liang Fuchen's expression was still full of solemnity, but he was faintly excited and excited, so he had a speculation about the decision of the imperial court, and he couldn't help but be sure in his heart.

However, he said that after Liang Fuchen came to the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, he showed a resolute attitude and said directly: "Colleagues, this pavilion has just received the latest holy decree from the imperial court!" ”

After speaking, Liang Fuchen took out a bright yellow scroll from his arms.

After seeing Liang Fuchen take out the holy decree, including Zhao Junchen, all the officials in the main hall hurriedly knelt down to listen to the decree.

I saw Liang Fuchen read aloud after unfolding the holy decree: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: For more than 100 years, the Mongolian tribes have not known reverence, and have repeatedly gone south to plunder the Han people and offend the prestige of our Celestial Empire, and the officials and people in the northwest have suffered greatly!" I have decided that I will do my best in one battle, send troops to the steppe, punish the Mongolian right-wing departments, recover the Hetao Plain, and completely end the hidden border defense of Shaanxi and Gansu!

…… During this period, Liang Fuchen, the minister with plenipotentiary commission, presided over all border defense and expedition matters, and Zhao Junchen, the former deputy envoy of the envoy, was changed to the deputy envoy with plenipotentiary to assist Liang Fuchen in handling all military and political affairs in Shaanxi and Gansu......

…… The officers and men of the various armies in Shaanxi and Gansu should be the vanguard of this expedition to the grassland, and the specific arrangements will be decided by Liang Fuchen and Zhao Junchen......

…… After the Shaanxi and Gansu soldiers set out to conquer the grassland, they will be able to receive the full support of the imperial court...... I have issued an order that the Sichuan Baipole Army and the Hunan Sixth Battalion and the Third Army will rush to the three sides to support in the near future......

…… The matter of the national war should be the foundation of a hundred years, and I am very sincere, and I hope that the ministers of Shaanxi and Gansu will work together and spare no effort. ”

After Liang Fuchen finished reading this holy decree, the officials in the hall were in an uproar.

The imperial court changed its previous style of passive defense, and suddenly took the initiative to go out to the grassland, which naturally caused great repercussions.

Some people are excited, some are worried, some are nervous, and some are overwhelmed, and they have different reactions.

But in Zhao Junchen's eyes, among this holy decree, there are only three pieces of news worthy of his attention.

One is that the imperial court has finally made up its mind to send troops to recover the Hetao, so many of Zhao Junchen's arrangements can also play a role in the open.

The second is that he has changed from a deputy envoy who is only responsible for disaster relief to a deputy envoy with full powers who can meddle in all matters, although Zhao Junchen knows very well that his identity cannot be retained for a long time, but this change in status also reveals the concessions made by the imperial court to himself.

The third is that the center of the imperial court is very determined this time, not only mobilizing troops from all over the country to rush to Shaanxi and Gansu to support, but also investing a lot of silver and grain resources......

This also means that Zhao Junchen's savings for the imperial treasury over the years will soon be depleted.

This is certainly a good thing.

Because, this means that Zhao Junchen's temple status in the future will become more and more unshakable.

But it is also a crisis.

Because, as the Xiaochuan River gradually approached, after the treasury was depleted, it meant that the imperial court would have a large-scale natural disaster in the future, and there would be no relief at all.

In short, under the urging of Zhao Junchen, the center of the imperial court has walked on a dangerous tightrope.

……

PS: After grandpa's birthday banquet ended, the parents proposed to go to the attractions near their hometown, and the insect thought that he hadn't been with them for a long time, of course he couldn't refuse...... But by then, it was almost 10 p.m. and much later than expected.

Fortunately, the insect was clever yesterday and left a little manuscript, otherwise he would have entered the palace again today.

All in all, it's a short, concise, two-thousand-word miniature chapter.

Progress bar: 20/30
