"The old minister knocks to see Your Majesty!"

It was already past noon, but Zhang Khan Zhi did not go to rest, Wu Zi led a group of officials of the East Palace to be busy in the study, and when he saw Li Xianda walking in, he stood up busily, knelt on the ground, and bowed in a choked tone.

"Mr. doesn't have to be like this, I can inherit the treasure, Mr. is the first merit, I have issued an edict, Mr. Feng is the protector of the country, and he will enter the political hall to do errands, you and I have a chance to meet a minister, and we must have a good life to do something big, start and finish well, and it is not easy to show it."

Looking at Zhang Cambodia, who was so excited that he couldn't help himself, Li Xian's heart couldn't help but fluctuate, there was nothing else, the monarch and the minister had been together for more than ten years, and there were countless turmoil, if it weren't for Zhang Cambodia's loyal old minister to help him, Li Xian didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to spend it safely, and now, the fruits of victory have been ripe, and it is indeed the time for the great hero, at this point, Li Xian has never been stingy, and it is impossible to do even the stupid thing of unloading the grind and killing the donkey.

"The old minister bows to His Majesty Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Zhang Cambodia was only forty years old when he was admitted to the Jinshi, and he was a late bloomer, and he worked hard to support Li Xian, in order to be able to enter the picture one day in the future.

"Sir, please get up, although the overall situation has been decided, the aftermath is not over, and I still need Mr. to help me from the side."

Although Li Xian's mood was excited, he would never miss the right thing, after all, although the matter of forcing the palace was over, but the hearts of the people in Luoyang City were still undecided, and the army of the King of Yue was coming, Li Xianshi did not have time to feel more about the difficulties of the past years, so he stretched out his hand to help Zhang Cambodia up, and said with a solemn expression.

"Your Majesty's words are serious, and the old minister thinks about it as a Zen spirit, and he will never dare to disappoint the grace of the saint."

Zhang Cambodia is a wise man in the world, although he is excited by the fulfillment of his wish for many years, he will not delay the business, take a small step back, and replied with an impassioned expression.

"Well, that's fine, sir, please take a seat, Zhuang Yong stays, and the rest are busy with their own work."

Li Xian was worried in his heart, and he didn't want to waste time, so he walked behind the first copy, waved his hand, and all the subordinate officials withdrew, and then lifted the hem of his robe and sat down.

"Your Majesty, Zhuang Zhang always has an urgent military situation to report."

Zhang Cambodia did not sit down at the lower end as in the past, but bowed slightly, stood at the bottom, and reported cautiously.

"Well, let's talk about it."

Seeing that Zhang Cambodia was no longer as calm and casual as in the past, but was very restrained, Li Xian unconsciously frowned slightly, but at the end, he didn't say much, but secretly sighed in his heart that the ravine of the monarch and the minister had been completed, and it was difficult to have the opportunity to sit and laugh and talk together in the past.

"Your Majesty, according to the Caizhou line report, the Xiangzhou army totaled 120,000, has arrived in Caizhou, is rushing to Mengjin, its forward department a total of 5,000 cavalry, led by Caizhou Thorn Shi Li Qian, has taken advantage of the Yellow River to freeze the time, seized the old estuary, Mengjin Zhixian Tang Jian heard the wind and fled, Mengjin is afraid that it has been lost, in addition, according to the urgent report sent by Cuishan, the avalanche of Cuishan, the road was blocked, our army in Hexi was blocked in front of the pass, General Lin has requisitioned the people to dredge the road, however, the disaster is serious, I am afraid it will take five days to dig the road, again, The officials ordered Pei Shoude to secretly meet with Jin Wuwei Zhonglang and more than ten ministers such as Lu Qisheng, who wanted to cause chaos in the city to meet the army of the king of Yue, and his subordinates have sent people to closely monitor them. ”

The situation was urgent, Zhuang Yong couldn't care a lot, and hurriedly bowed down and reported the news summarized by "Ming Di" one by one.

Avalanche? Damn, it's a big problem this time!

As soon as he heard the avalanche at Kunshan Pass, Li Xian's heart couldn't help but sink, not for anything else, just because Li Xian originally pinned all his hopes for defeating the Xiangzhou army on the arrival of the Hexi army, and now under the avalanche road closure, the Hexi army's itinerary is destined to be delayed, as a result, the pressure on the eastern capital has suddenly increased a lot, and whether it can hold on to the arrival of the Hexi army is really unknown - even if it takes five days to pass, the Hexi army will travel day and night, and it will take ten days to reach the city at the earliest. And the Xiangzhou army crossed the frozen Yellow River is a matter of time, even if in Mengjin slightly adjusted, it will not be more than three days to arrive under the city of Luoyang, so calculated, in the face of the siege of more than 100,000 troops in Xiangzhou, with the 12,000 troops in the city, to hold the lonely city for seven days, the difficulty is obviously not small, in case the Hexi army can not arrive in time, the consequences are really unimaginable.

"What does the gentleman think about this?"

After Li Xian frowned and thought about it, he already had a plan in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to make a decision, but quietly threw the question to Zhang Cambodia.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the old minister thinks that those who are outsiders must first settle down, and this matter should be divided into four walks, first of all, Your Majesty must ascend the throne as soon as possible, change the yuan, and proclaim to the world, in the name of righteousness; secondly, to announce the rebellion of the king of Yue to the world, and to use thunderbolt means to cut off his wings in the city; third, to announce a general amnesty to appease the hearts of the subjects, especially those in the post-party; Fourth, the requisition of the people, especially the families of the prefectures and the city to assist in the defense, as for the specific war arrangements, not the old minister's director, I really dare not say anything, and I also ask Your Majesty to make a decision. ”

Long before Li Xian's return, Zhang Cambodia had already calculated everything, and when he answered, he was self-conscious and very organized.

"Okay, what Mr. said is very agreeable, so I will do it, Mr. Zhuang Zhang immediately sent a letter to Lin Chengbin, asking him to speed up the dredging speed, and be sure to arrive in Luoyang within ten days!"

What Zhang Cambodia said is exactly what Li Xian thinks - the party has no support from the Empress Wu, and it is already a group of dragons without a leader, and it can be cleaned up whenever it wants, so there is no need to rush for a while, first give it the will of amnesty, in order to calm his heart, and it is not too late to slowly calculate the general account in the futureIn view of this, Li Xianzi no longer hesitated, and made a decision when he made a decision......

On the eleventh day of the first month of the second year of Yonglong, the crown prince Li Xian sacrificed heaven and earth in front of the Deyang Palace, announced to the world, ascended the throne as the emperor, changed the yuan to "Qiyuan", which was the first year of Qiyuan, and even issued four edicts, one of which was to seal the crown princess Zhao Qiong as the queen, Princess Mingyue as the concubine, Shangguan Wan'er as the concubine Mei, and Yanhong as the concubine; Second, Pei Xingjian led the funeral, and Gaozong was the great sage of the Great Hongxiao Emperor, and the temple number: Gaozong; Third, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, was declared a traitor, and the edict ordered the world to discuss it, and ordered Li Duozuo, the general of the Zuo Yulin Army, to lead his troops to arrest Pei Shoude, Lu Qisheng and other traitors and thieves who participated in the rebellion of the king of Yue; Fourth, it was announced that Luoyang would implement a curfew and enter a wartime state, and the edict would conscript all the dukes, the families of the Hou Mansion and the people to assist in defending the city, with Li Duozuo, the general of the Yulin Army, leading 3,000 troops to guard the south gate, Pei Xingjian leading 2,005 troops to guard the north gate, Cheng Wuting, the general of the Yulin Army, leading 3,000 troops to guard the west gate, and Li Xianzi leading the East Palace Guard to lead 3,000 troops to guard the east gate.

At three o'clock at noon on the twelfth day of the first month of the first year of Qiyuan, more than 20 officials of the Yue Dynasty such as Pei Shoude and other Yue kings who were captured were all escorted to the city, beheaded and sacrificed to the flag, and hung their heads at the north gate to show the public, and more than 1,000 family members of the prisoners were all officials and slaves; At the end of the card, the emperor issued an edict to amnesty the world, the original party members, except for Jia Chaoyin in prison, the rest are not investigated, this edict, the original panic of the people's hearts are at ease, the preparations for war are in an orderly manner, until the night does not stop, under the unity of all people, the city defense has gradually solidified.

"Your Majesty, it's dawn, it's time for you to have breakfast."

In the city gate tower at the north gate of Luoyang City, Li Xianduan, who was dressed in military uniform, was sitting in front of the copywriter, and was burying his head in correcting the folds, Yingting's face was full of exhaustion, which made Gao Miao, who personally walked into the building with a food box, couldn't help but feel distressed, and walked closer with moist corners of his eyes, and reminded him in a whisper.

"Oh? Let's put it there first, and I'll use it later! ”

Hearing the sound, Li Xian raised his head, looked at the already bright sky outside the building, and after casually commanding, he first stretched his waist, and then stretched out his hand to rub his already stiff face, showing his tiredness.

Luoyang is known as a strong city, but in fact, in addition to the tall city wall, the city defense facilities can only be described by the word simple, there are only more than 20 crossbows on the huge city wall, and scattered on the four city walls, most of them are relics of the Taizong period, although the warranty is good, but the aging of the parts is inevitable, in order to strengthen the city defense, Li Xian has tried his best in the past two days, personally went into battle to command, and the dispatch for two days and two nights in a row has finally achieved initial results, and finally got a respite, However, he had to correct the backlog of twists and turns due to the lazy government of the military queen, and he really couldn't make Li Xian tired.

"Your Majesty, Niang Niang has explained, this porridge and cakes are all used while they are hot, you see ......"

Gao Miao has been loyal to Li Xian for more than 20 years, and he knows Li Xian's temperament, and if he doesn't finish his business, he will definitely not go to dinner.

"Heh, slippery!"

Knowing that Gao Miao was pulling the tiger skin as a banner, Li Xian was not surprised, just laughed and scolded, put down the red pen casually, and was about to reach out to get the chopsticks, when a feeling of palpitations suddenly came to his heart, and his hand couldn't help but stiffen.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

As soon as he saw Li Xian suddenly stop moving, Gao Miao couldn't help but be stunned, and just when he was about to say something and ask what was going on, he heard a terrible horn sound suddenly sounded, and his face turned white in an instant.

It's coming, it's finally coming!

Before Gao Miao came back to his senses, Li Xian's figure only flashed, and he was already standing at the city saucer, and when he looked at it, he saw that in the snow in the distance, the army of black crows and crows was rushing towards Luoyang City, and his heart couldn't help but sink......
