There was silence in the dormitory of Qianqing Palace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this time, everyone else wanted to avoid the question, but Xie Qian did not flinch and came out to play: "Your Majesty, the Bauhinia Pass was ...... yesterday Fall! ”

A simple sentence directly points out the theme, that is, the Bauhinia Pass, one of the three major passes of the Inner Great Wall, has been lost, which means that the capital will be directly under the front of the Tatar iron cavalry, and the Beijing division has no passes to resist except for the four city walls.

At present, it is the Hongzhi period, the capital has not yet built the outer city, that is, the southern city, the area is far from the scale of the later generations, once the city is lost, it means that the Ming Jingshi has fallen, and the Forbidden City can not be used as the last barrier at all.

"Hmm...... Uh......"

Zhu Youji's previous physical condition was acceptable, and when he heard this, he stretched out his hand, as if he was struggling to sit up, but he couldn't sit up for a long time.

Xiao Jing hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhu Youzhu lie down, put the futon in place, and comforted: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said, you have to rest more, and you must not work for state affairs!" Your Majesty...... Don't worry, it's not as serious as you thought it would be, woo ......"

Xiao Jing and Emperor Hongzhi have a deep relationship, and they are kind-hearted, so they actually cried bitterly when they said this.

When the ministers present heard this cry, they all moved, Li Dongyang, Zhang Mao and others all glared at Xie Qian, as if to say, Xie Yuqiao, can you speak? Your Majesty's reaction is so big, in case there are three long and two short, can you be responsible!

Xie Qian didn't seem to be a good person, he didn't pay attention to the cold eyes of others at all, he just lowered his head, but he was wondering whether Shen Xi was still alive or not.

Since the imperial court decided not to send troops to rescue Tumubao, Xie Qian's mood during this time was extremely complicated, and he had thought of all the ways he could, but he had nothing to do, so he could only resign himself to fate...... He even thought about mourning for Shen Xi, because no matter how he looked at it, Shen Xi would never come back alive!

Liu Jian stepped forward to check the emperor's situation, and finally determined that Zhu Youzhang's physical condition was indeed not optimistic, and hurriedly sent the imperial doctor to come for treatment, and several advisers and ministers could not stay in the Qianqing Palace to disturb the rest of the holy driver, so they could only resign and go to the Wenhua Palace.

The crown prince Zhu Houzhao, as the prisoner, has been notified that he needs to preside over an emergency meeting, and presumably the East Palace has also learned about the loss of Bauhinia Pass.

Along the way, the ministers were all silent, although they had also thought that Emperor Hongzhi was not in good health, but they did not expect the situation to be so bad.

When his life was in danger before, Emperor Hongzhi's situation was already very bad, but this time the situation seemed to be even worse than the time when he was in danger.

When the group entered the Wenhua Palace, several people didn't notice that the prince was sitting on the dragon chair, Li Dongyang frowned, and opened his mouth to reproach: "Yu Qiao, you have seen that Your Majesty's dragon body is not proper before, how can you bring up this matter without concealment?" ”

Ma Wensheng also said: "Yes, Yu Qiao, what you said is a little out of place!" ”

Xie Qian's expression was in a trance, and he was thoughtful when he heard the words+: "Otherwise, what should I do?" Could it be that such a big news of the loss of Bauhinia Pass was allowed to be concealed from His Majesty? Who is the person in the world who should know this best? ”

Zhang Heling echoed: "The world is Your Majesty's world, the Great Wall is critical, and the Bauhinia Pass is lost, of course, you must tell Your Majesty as soon as possible, what is wrong with Xie Shangshu's move?" ”

When Xie Qian was attacked by the crowd, someone actually stood on his side, and even Xie Qian himself didn't expect it, but this person was a relative, and Xie Qian, who also boasted of being a high man, was a little embarrassed.

It is not the first time that Zhang Heling has supported Xie Qian's remarks in public, and Xie Qian can't say anything about this blatant overture, and his mood is becoming more and more depressed.

Liu Jian finally entered the Wenhua Hall and said, "Things always have to be said, but you have to consider the words, Yu Qiao, where is your ability to speak well before?" ”

Xie Qian lowered his head and didn't bother to answer, his colleagues didn't discuss the impact of the loss of Bauhinia Pass, as well as the next military arrangement, but grabbed his pigtails to talk about things, Xie Qian was very speechless, he thought that he just did the right thing at the wrong time.

Just when several advisers and ministers were emotional and the scene was extremely embarrassing, a slightly childish voice came from their ears: "Hey, gentlemen, what are you talking about?" Why don't you talk about it with Hongu? ”

Everyone turned their heads to look over, only to find that the prince had already sat on the dragon chair, and everyone came into the hall for a while, but no one paid attention to the prince.

Xie Qian took the lead and walked over and saluted respectfully: "I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"What's the matter with you, as soon as you come in, you don't stop talking, don't you see this palace, when this palace is transparent?"

Zhu Houzhao looked very angry, slapped the armrest of the dragon chair hard, and made a "bang" sound - Xie Qian spoke to him the first day, but in the end he changed his mind and stimulated him to the core.

Zhu Houzhao has always felt that he has the ability to handle the government, but unfortunately these important ministers don't think so, and they don't discuss everything with him, feeling that they are being suppressed.

Liu Jian said: "Back to the prince, I got an urgent report before, and the Bauhinia Pass was lost...... The matter is too important, the ministers went to ask Sheng Ann first, and after coming back, they were still worried about His Majesty's dragon body, and inadvertently snubbed the prince, please forgive me! ”

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "You obviously didn't take this palace in your eyes...... Since you are going to see your father, why don't you inform the palace in advance? I haven't seen my father in front of him for a few days! ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't see his emperor's father, and the ministers didn't know about it. In their opinion, the emperor is sick and does not receive his courtiers, but his son can see him no matter what, even if he is afraid that his son will know his illness and worry, he will always have to deal with the prince's government and government, in addition to exercising his psychological endurance, he can also lay the foundation for inheriting the throne.

I don't know that even the crown prince was isolated outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and the queen didn't have a chance to see the driver, and the emperor's situation was puzzling...... Could it be that Zhu Youzhu is really sick and delirious?

Xie Qian said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, now is not the time to discuss these trivial issues, the Bauhinia Pass has fallen to the thieves, and the Beijing Division will be attacked by the thieves in the near future." In the areas around the Beijing Division, all the soldiers and horses should be withdrawn to the Beijing Division to be defended! ”

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly asked, "How is Mr. Shen Xishen doing there?" ”

One sentence made the ministers present frown, thinking: "When is this, the prince still remembers Shen Xi?" Can this be close to strengthening the defense of the Beijing Division? ”

Xie Qian replied: "There is still no news from Tumubao, but there is a news from three sides that Liu Shangshu's soldiers and horses will be withdrawn to the Beijing Division in half a month!" ”

"Half a month? It's just a joke! Half a month later, Jingshi said that it may not be all lost......"

Zhu Houzhao stood up from the dragon chair, paced back and forth, frowned and analyzed: "Bauhinia Pass is not far from the Jingshi, and the Tartar strikers can kill the city in one day, and if they wait for the follow-up siege equipment to be transported, it will only take two or three days at most." That is, when the time comes, the Tartars will launch a siege. The Tartars are fierce, and they have received a lot of food, grass, and weapons and equipment from the land on my border, and this city is very difficult to defend! ”

"Mr. Xie, you said that the surrounding areas of Jingshi are now under martial law, but the strategy of clearing the wilderness has been implemented?"

Xie Qian was stunned by the question, he glanced at Li Dongyang, and waited for the latter to nod before replying, "Yes." ”

"That's good, that's good, at least the Tatars can't be replenished from the land of Gyeonggi! What the palace is worried about now is that the impact of this incident will be too great, affecting the people's perception of the imperial court. ”

"Alas, it would have been nice to listen to me at the beginning, if you could send troops to rescue Tumu Fort in time, Mr. Shen would have already led his troops through Juyong Pass at this time, and he happened to meet the Tatars head-on. With Mr. Shen here, he doesn't even need a strong wall, he will definitely be able to turn the tide......"

The more Zhu Houzhao spoke, the more engaged he became, and between his words, he simply worshipped Shen Xi as a god.

Li Dongyang was a little angry when he heard this, and reminded: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Shen Hanlin's soldiers are trapped in Tumu Fort, and now that the Tartars have captured the Bauhinia Pass, they must have been defeated and died......

"Now that the soldiers and horses on the three sides are retreating, the top priority is to guard the Beijing Division, strengthen the vigilance before the arrival of the army of King Qin in various places, and ask the prince to issue an order to reward the three armies and fight to the death with the Northern Kou!"
