Chapter 806: The Situation in Northern Xinjiang
Weiyang Palace, East Warm Pavilion.
The emperor listened to the report of the commander of the inner guards, saying that the wedding was held after the general Chen Ran woke up, the emperor pondered for a moment, looked at Dai Fangzhou and ordered: "Go to the inner library to pick up something auspicious and send it over, in addition, let Shen Leng enter the palace after his busy work, don't be in a hurry." β
"The slave obeys."
Dai Fangzhou hurriedly went out and went to the palace to choose a congratulatory gift.
The emperor looked at Yan Bai: "How is the crown prince?" β
"After His Royal Highness returned to the East Palace, he closed the door, and in the first two months, His Royal Highness changed the guards around him, saying that it was a routine replacement replacement, but at that time, all the guards who had never been selected from the Yang Palace were excluded, and no one could stay close to His Highness, so His Highness's ministers in the East Palace could not investigate."
"Hmm."
The emperor nodded without any expression: "Yesterday you asked you to check who is the most suspicious in the East Palace, but there are clues?" β
"Back to Your Majesty, there are no clues yet, in the East Palace, the people who are often around His Royal Highness are suspicious, Cao Anqing, the head of the inner chamberlain, Lin Dongting, the prince's companion, Wang Yayan, the commander of the East Palace guards, Wu Dong, the general of the left guard, Li Sicheng, the general of the right guard, the Menxia Fang, the Dianshufang, and the Tongjia Order, as well as the left and right rates of the Ten Mansions, plus the Chongwen Pavilion, except for the Zhan Mansion where the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wang Huaili is also in charge, everyone else has to be screened, and there are also the prince's guests......"
Yan Bai glanced at the emperor: "There are too many people, and many of them come and go with the prince every day, and now the guards in the East Palace are no longer easy to arrange, and they need to arrange people to enter from the new one." β
The emperor nodded: "Let's start with the people close to the prince, first check the origin of everyone, and mainly identify who had dealings with Mu Zhaotong in the first place." β
Yan Bai bowed his head: "The minister will do it with all his might." β
The emperor was silent for a while and then said: "This matter is not allowed to be spread to anyone, not even Wei Lan, except for you and your cronies, the less people know about it, the better." β
"I understand."
Yan Bai said: "The minister will retire first." β
The emperor waved his hand: "Go ahead." β
After Yan Bai went out, the emperor was the only one left in the Dongnuan Pavilion, he got up and walked to the window, pushed the window open, and the cold wind outside poured in, and the emperor's hair fluttered back.
The temperature in the warm room dropped suddenly, and this cold wind made the emperor shiver involuntarily.
The emperor has never felt physically and mentally exhausted because of national events, he just arrived in Chang'an from Yunxiao City more than twenty years ago, he was unprepared at that time, Li Chengyuan died of illness, he suddenly became an emperor, how could he have thought that he would become an emperor before.
At that time, it was really difficult.
When he first arrived in Chang'an, there were few civil and military officers in the Manchu Dynasty who showed enthusiasm, six ministries and nine qing, those who could resign resigned, and those who could go, everyone was worried about being involved in what whirlpool would never recover, at that time, Mu Zhaotong's words were definitely more effective than his words as the emperor.
The internal worries have not been solved, the external troubles are coming again, the black army is coming, the frontier is in an emergency, the emperor has transferred all the people who can be dispatched around him, the most important thing is that he was still suffering from the loss of his son at that time, he didn't know what happened to his child, he couldn't find it, he couldn't find anyone, he couldn't see the dead or the corpse, even in this case, he still survived.
Before he became the emperor, Daning has always been quite passive to the black army, more than 20 years later, the black force was counterattacked and did not dare to move troops easily, this is his strength, the strength of the army, because of the improvement of people's livelihood, the treasury has no more income where can support the successive wars.
Twenty years after his accession to the throne, Daning has reached an unprecedented height both militarily and economically
Che, all in preparation for his personal expedition to the Black Army, on the first day of his ascension to the throne and emperor, he set this goal, and he fought for this goal for twenty years.
But now, he is still ambitious, but he feels physically and mentally exhausted from time to time because of the prince's affairs.
When Han Zhaozhi was there, he told Han Zhaozhi that he had to give the prince a chance...... Only he knows what this opportunity is, no matter what happens, he will not change his decision, this decision is the time of the pro-conquest, Chang'an City must be handed over to the prince, and the court will be handed over to the prince, this is the last chance he gives the prince, if there is no accident, although he feels that the prince is only the master of the shoucheng, he will not change him, if ......
The emperor felt the cold wind rushing in front of him like a knife.
If the crown prince took advantage of his northern expedition to do something wrong in Chang'an City, could he still stay in the position of the prince? But that's the eldest son he grew up watching.
National events have never made the emperor feel so powerless, family affairs are always more irritating than state affairs, first the queen is constantly demonic, once and again, he endures it again and again, the queen is dead, then Mu Zhaotong, then the prince......
The emperor let out a long breath, and Shen Leng's appearance appeared inexplicably in his mind, and he once again carefully and seriously thought about it, can he pass the throne to Shen Leng?
In the end, it was also a sigh.
He couldn't.
Welcome Building.
Chen Ran's face looked better than before, after the ceremony, it was good to say that he didn't eat nonsense, and after being in a coma for two days, he was indeed hungry, and the two bowls of porridge failed to fill his stomach.
was talking to Shen Leng, suddenly the abdominal pain was unbearable, he ran to the toilet with his stomach covered, Shen Leng didn't feel at ease and followed him, squatting in the thatched toilet Chen Ran groaned in pain, Shen Leng asked outside if there was anything wrong, Chen Ran was sweating in pain, a smell came out of the toilet, and Shen Leng felt a little unbearable.
A small stray dog slipped into the latrine, came out a moment later, and vomited when he went out.
Shen Leng asked again: "How is it?" β
Chen Ran said: "It should be to pull out all the poison." β
Shen Leng sighed: "I don't know if it's detoxification, anyway, you stinked and vomited the dog, you know that the dog is a magical thing that can quietly watch you pull poop, and the things that are so quietly watched are stinky and vomited by you, you can imagine it......"
Chen Ran: "Shut up, I'm about to throw up." β
After a while, Chen Ran came out of the toilet with his support to the wall, and it seemed that he was really about to collapse: "Mr. Shen, this medicine is a laxative." β
Shen Leng saw that although he collapsed, his face was not very bad, and helped him to walk back: "No matter what kind of medicine it is, it is a good medicine that can clear your poison." β
Chen Ran said: "Cover the toilet for a while, and then poison the dog to death." β
Shen Leng glanced at him: "Shut up......"
"Look at the puppy just now, you don't want to smell it......"
Shen Leng helped him back to the welcome building, and after sitting down, he drank a cup of hot water, Chen Ran's face looked better, and he let out a long breath: "Where are you now?" β
"The ceremony is over, the banquet is being restarted, there are more and more guests, and the tables have been set outside the welcome building."
Shen Leng said: "You don't have to worry about these things, I and the guests have also said that I will go out to toast for you in a while, and you can rest." β
Chen Ran said: "Then what steps do I have that I haven't completed?" β
"Into the cave room."
Shen Leng glanced at Chen Ran: "A very critical step." β
Chen Ran smiled wryly: "Now this physical strength ......"
The two of them were talking, Dai Fangzhou came over with His Majesty's congratulatory gift, Shen Leng hurriedly helped Chen Ran to take it out, and arranged for Dai Fangzhou to sit down, and Mr. Shen and Mr. Chen Da Boye and they had a table to eat, Dai Fangzhou rarely had the opportunity to attend on this occasion, but he felt novel and happy, and always felt that the food on this big banquet was much better than the food in the palace.
At the same time, Northern Xinjiang.
In the wind and snow, a team of Daning scout cavalry in white robes returned, the eyes of the people who were blowing in the wind were not easy to open, the snow was swept by the wind, and it hurt a little to hit the people, and the snow on the ground was also sent back into the air by the wind, which no longer looked like snow, but a thick fog.
The person at the head was a general of the Wupinning Army, one-armed.
He pulled down the cloth covering his face, turned around and shouted loudly: "It's all followed, and it will be more than ten miles to the Xifengkou camp." β
The scout beside him said: "General Bai, such a big snowstorm, or take your brothers to find a place to take refuge." β
"Can't stop."
This one-armed general was Bai Fang, one of the two heroes of the original Liuyun Society, and he looked around: "The news of the North Courtyard of the Black Martial Army this time is very important, there are still Black Martial Army chasing soldiers behind him, there are only a dozen miles left, everyone hold on a little longer." β
The scout nodded, and with difficulty raised the flag in his hand and shook it, the surrounding area was white, the ground was white, the sky was white, and the people were white all around, and the red flag in his hand was the target that everyone followed closely.
In the strong wind, I faintly seemed to hear the sound of a whining horn, which was the horn of the black warriors.
White Fang's face changed, and he ordered loudly: "Rush forward!" β
Dozens of scouts saw the people in front of them speeding up, and they all urged their horses to follow forward, it was easy to get lost in such a strong wind, and there was no reference around at all, but the horn of the black warrior sounded nearby, and no one knew how many people would chase after them.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, and White Fang immediately reined in the war horse and took off the repeater in an instant.
Directly in front, a group of black cavalry was lying there, it seemed that the number should be no less than three or five hundred, these black cavalry had also raised their crossbows and bows and arrows, no one spoke, but it seemed that the wind was the roar of death.
The cavalry of the Black Warrior Kingdom suddenly separated from each other, and a man in armor behind him urged him to come up and pull down the mask on his face, and it turned out to be a very beautiful woman.
White Fang was stunned: "His Highness Qinse? β
Kuo Kedi frowned slightly: "You are Meng Changan's subordinate?" β
"Yes."
Qin Se hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you looking for news about the army of the North Courtyard?" β
"Yes."
White Fang slowly pulled out the horizontal knife: "Your Highness, I am offended." β
Qin Se was silent for a moment, and with a wave of his hand, the team of the black warriors immediately separated.
"Go back and tell Meng Changan that the person who took over the 300,000 army of the Northern Courtyard this time is Du Gang, the nephew of Su Gai, the former general of the Southern Courtyard...... SambrΓΌ has given me an ultimatum that if I don't hand over the cities of Gedi and Sulla, he will fight them first. β
After saying that, Qin Se turned her horse away, and hundreds of black warrior cavalry escorted her into the wind and snow.
White Fang breathed a sigh of relief and thrust the knife back.
It seems that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is having a worse time.
