"Xianggong, I didn't expect you to go out all morning, and so many big things happened. The matter of the sister-in-law is not a topic for the time being. Tell me, when exactly do you plan to leave for Gansu? Can you wait until the mother and daughter come back? If they can't see you when they come back, won't they fail their desire to come all the way to see you? ”

Wang Mang replied: "I shouldn't be able to wait, as for the specific time, it depends on the outcome of tomorrow morning." If nothing else, I will leave the imperial capital in about half a month. As for his uncle, he needs to go to Yumen Pass tomorrow to preside over the overall situation. ”

Wang Jingyan thought for a moment and proposed: "Otherwise, you will send someone to summon your mother and ask her mother to speed up the trip?" You have to see Yan'er and Shun'er before you leave, right? ”

"No, it's absolutely not going to work. Not only could they not come in advance, but they also had to continue to postpone it, and it was best to be able to return to Liaoning immediately. Of course, since the mother has already come, then she will definitely not go back. Jingyan, don't think about these things, I have a point. Now I mention these things to you, just in the hope that you will be prepared in your heart. ”

At that moment, after Wang Mang talked to Wang Jingyan, Wei Ziyao, and Qiu Tong for a while, he got up and went out of the door, went to Wang Xianzhi's house, conspired with him, and negotiated the battle plan.

In the early morning of the second day, Wang Mang didn't wait for Wang Jingyan to call, he woke up early, put on his official uniform, stepped on the sedan chair, and went straight to Weiyang Palace.

Along the way, Wang Mang saw many pedestrians dressed as spies hurrying by the window of the sedan chair, and their faces were not comparable to usual.

As soon as he saw these people, he knew that this must be a spy sent by officials from other states in Kyushu to inquire about the news in the imperial capital.

"Presumably, there are a lot of other people on the border who report the news of the war, and these spies have learned about the situation and are in a hurry to go back to report the situation. Hey, at the beginning of Kyushu's restlessness, it has already begun. I just don't know how many people will have to die this time to calm down. ”

When there was nothing to do all the way, Wang Mang and his party successfully passed through the ten-mile long street, crossed the nine dragon gates, and headed for the depths.

At about five o'clock, he arrived at Weiyang Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace, he saw that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had basically arrived, earlier than himself.

Even, Ji Yun and Ji Xuan, who had no official positions, also came, standing next to Feng Yi.

When the eunuch saw Wang Mang coming, he hurriedly shouted: "The early dynasty has begun...."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live," the ministers sang.

Liu Xin didn't have time to be polite with these ministers, and after saying a waiver, without waiting for the ministers to play, he took the lead in asking: "Ladies and gentlemen, the matter of the Kansai border, you must have heard about it." I wonder what you have to say about this? Is there a solution? How to repel the enemy?

This time, the Xiongnu united with the barbarians of all countries, invaded the Central Plains on a large scale, slaughtered the people and soldiers in the frontier, caused a monstrous disaster, caused the people to live in poverty, and the people complained. This matter must be resolved once and for all, and it cannot be delayed any longer. ”

After a night of consulting with their clansmen, the ministers already had some plans and arrangements in mind.

Now they heard Liu Xin ask, so they organized their words in their hearts one by one and prepared to answer.

At this time, Pi Tong was one step ahead of everyone and took the lead in speaking: "Your Majesty, the minister has the right to play." ”

"Huh? What's up? Liu Xin was surprised: "Could it be that Mrs. Feng has a good plan?" Can you keep the enemy out of the country? ”

"No, no!"

Feng Yi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has no good strategy to retreat from the enemy, and the minister has another important thing to play." ”

"Big deal? What's the big deal? ”

Liu Xin was very suspicious, and he didn't know what else could be compared to discussing the border at this juncture.

In this Weiyang Palace, not only Liu Xin was very puzzled, but other civil and military officials were also very puzzled.

In their opinion, Feng Yi is very stable and understands the overall situation. How can there be a change at the moment, ignoring the major affairs of the country, and talking about other things?

Of course, Liu Xin and the civil and military officials were puzzled, but someone knew. This person is none other than Wang Mang.

Ever since he heard Feng Yi speak first, a deep feeling of bad feeling came out. I feel that this morning will be an early day, and something big will happen. And this major event is about oneself.

At that moment, he didn't dare to let Feng Yi say it, and immediately scolded: "Mrs. Feng, you don't want to mess around." When's the time? It is the key to the survival of my Kyushu. All other foreign affairs must be put aside, and it is important to discuss the important matter of sending troops with peace of mind. You can quickly step back, reflect on your mistakes, and say no more. ”

"Hmph, General Wang is so powerful?"

Feng Yi ignored Wang Mang and said to Liu Xin: "Your Majesty, there have been clouds since ancient times, and you must first settle down inside. At present, the internal situation in Kyushu is unstable, and if we do not give priority to solving internal affairs, we will not talk about sending troops. ”

Liu Xin replied: "If that's the case, then I would like to ask Mrs. Feng to come and listen to it, and invite all the ministers to discuss it together." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Feng Yi smiled coldly at Wang Mang, revealing a mocking meaning, contemptuous that Wang Mang didn't know the height of the sky, and dared to fight with himself.

When Wang Mang saw this look, he couldn't guess what Feng Yi was planning, so he had to listen to it.

After Feng Yi coughed dryly, he said: "Your Majesty, the minister has heard that Empress Wei Ziyao has misbehaved and often violates the national system. Now she has lived in General Wuhou's Mansion for a long time, mingling with the servants of General Wuhou's Mansion, and does not take etiquette to heart.

This matter has spread all over the world and caused a huge repercussion, and it is said that the queen is the reincarnation of the disaster star. It was she who caused the government to be unstable and had many natural disasters. In the past few days, the minister has received a lot of admonitions, all of which say that they want to abolish the queen and put her on death row.

Of course, I believe that Lord Wang will never do anything unruly with the queen. But the queen is the mother of a country, how can she stay out of it? And she is messing around in General Wuhou's mansion, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not have adultery with other people there. Therefore, the minister suggested that His Majesty respect the people's wishes, put the queen on death row, and appease the anger of the people.

I think that as long as this matter is handled properly, the people will surely return to their hearts. Then we will use the strength of the whole country to conquer the Xiongnu, and we will definitely be able to exterminate them in one fell swoop and quell the war on the frontier. ”

"Abolish Wei Ziyao? Put her on death row? ”

As soon as Liu Xin heard this, he was immediately shocked on the spot, and his eyes showed a look of disbelief.

He knew that Wei Ziyao was staying in General Wuhou's Mansion to relax, and he also knew that Wei Ziyao and Wang Mang had some connections.

But in his eyes, Wei Ziyao and Wang Mang have absolutely nothing else to do except for a somewhat close relationship. And Wei Ziyao is arrogant, and she will not do anything rude casually.

Therefore, he didn't ask about it, and let Wei Ziyao go to relieve his boredom.

Now Feng Yi is attacking with this, which makes it a little difficult for him to respond.

He never wanted to abolish Wei Ziyao, let alone kill Wei Ziyao, he just wanted to have it.

"Mrs. Feng, this matter can be discussed later."

"No, it definitely won't work." Feng Yi refused: "Your Majesty, if Your Majesty ignores this matter, then the people of the world will definitely change." At that time, my great man will be in the midst of internal and external troubles. So where should the dynasty go? Of course, if His Majesty refuses to deal with Wei Ziyao, Nachen will die in the main hall of Weiyang Palace today. ”
