While the soldiers and horses of the Ming army were setting up tents, they began to dig pits in the north and east of the camp, and they were working on the front and back at the same time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Dongyang looked at it for a long time, then looked back...... He was waiting for Xie Qian to come back, and in Li Dongyang's opinion, the person in the cabinet who knew the most about military affairs was none other than Xie Qian, and Xie Qian was not there, so he didn't understand what the Ming army was doing outside the city at all.

Zhang Mao was more direct, and asked Zhu Houzhao, who was dancing with his eyebrows: "What is this?" ”

Zhu Houzhao pointed out the maze: "This is digging trenches to prevent the Tatar cavalry from raiding...... Hey, I don't understand what I told you, you still said that this palace is shallow before, and the result is worse than me! ”

"Do you think Mr. Shen's skills are all blown out? He is a victory after victory, and this palace has won his true biography, and his level will naturally not be low. Well, it seems that today the Tartars don't dare to make a fuss about Xizhimen anymore, and the palace will go back to the palace to meet his father now, and ask his father to decide on the matter of sending troops! ”

Zhu Houzhao refused to return to the palace before, but now that the battle in Xizhimen is over, Shen Xi, whom he has always admired, has also led his troops back to Beijing to Shiqin Wang, Zhu Houzhao let go of his worries and couldn't wait to return to the palace.

Although Li Dongyang had a lot of confusion in his heart, he still hurried to catch up with the prince and fulfill his duties.

Li Dongyang was also waiting for further instructions from the palace at this time, he did not support sending troops outside the city, but the brave and good fighting of King Qin's soldiers and horses was what he saw with his own eyes, so he was a little entangled at this time.

Is it better to send troops or not to send troops? Li Dongyang planned to go back and see what Emperor Hongzhi meant, and then discuss it between the cabinet and the military department to formulate the most reasonable plan.

……

……

In the palace, Xie Qian came directly from Daming Gate, and after arriving at the Qianqing Palace, he waited outside the palace for more than an hour, but he still didn't see Zhu Youji's face.

Xiao Jing asked Xie Qian to "wait a little longer" every time he came out, and the more Xie Qian waited, the more anxious he became, for fear that Shen Xi would have something to do when he came over to ask for troops, but he didn't want to give up halfway.

In Xie Qian's opinion, no matter how small his hope is, he must win the soldiers and horses for Shen Xi to go out of the city to respond to the battle, instead of letting Shen Xi fight alone outside the city.

Xie Qian thought to himself: "Now that I go back to the city, it will be useless, there is no order from the military department, even the prince has no right to transfer troops." As for the military department, everything has to be decided by the cabinet, Young Master Liu will definitely not be on my side, it is better to ask Your Majesty directly, as long as Your Majesty knows Shen Xi Xiao'er's ability and agrees to send troops, the battle situation in the capital will be reversed, and Shen Xi Xiao'er's safety can also be guaranteed. I can't give up ......"

After that, Xie Qian waited for almost an hour, but still did not wait for the emperor's order, but waited for the prince to come back.

But seeing Zhu Houzhao rushing all the way to the Qianqing Palace, Xie Qian was a little surprised, the bear child ran like a gust of wind, incredibly fast.

"The prince's legs and feet are not bad!" Xie Qian pondered.

Zhu Houzhao rushed to Xie Qian, grabbed Xie Qian's arm, and came up with a burst of laughter, which made Xie Qian confused.

Zhu Houzhao's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Mr. Xie, don't you know that after you left, Mr. Shen led his troops to start a desperate battle with the Tartars, killing a dark ......."

Hearing this, Xie Qian's heart immediately hung up, he didn't think that Shen Xi could entangle with Tatar soldiers and horses several times his size without getting a response from the soldiers and horses in the city, after all, he was the elite of the Tatar Khan Department, even if the prince's face was full of joy, it couldn't dispel his doubts, because the ghost knew if it was a bear child who had a nervous attack.

In Xie Qian's eyes, the prince was moody, and he couldn't understand what was going on in his little head.

But listening to Zhu Houzhao continue, "...... The Tartars attacked Mr. Shen's Chinese army several times, but they all returned in vain, but Mr. Shen's infantry phalanx was successful, and there were fierce generals under him, who led the troops to rush to kill the Tartar Chinese army's position...... It took a long time for the war to end, and Mr. Shen was already camped outside the city by this time! ”

Xie Qian thought about it for a moment before he asked in astonishment, "What...... What the? Camp? ”

Zhu Hou said as a matter of course: "It's camping, is there anything wrong with Mr. Shen staying outside the city?" Do you want him to lead his troops into the city and return the good situation to the Tartars? Mr. Shen's choice is not wrong, and it coincides with my previous repeated emphasis that there must be soldiers and horses outside the capital! ”

Xie Qian's face was full of bitterness, he never expected that Shen Xi would choose to lead the army to stay outside the city regardless of his own safety.

Xie Qian secretly thought: "From a strategic point of view, there is nothing wrong with Shen Xi'er camping outside the city, but the problem is that you are the husband of my little granddaughter, it doesn't matter if your son dies outside the city, do you want my precious granddaughter to be a widow just after passing the door?" She is a concubine given to you by the old man, even if you die, I can't get people back from your Shen family! ”

Thinking of this, Xie Qian was extremely angry, he was angry with Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others before, and now he began to complain that Shen Xi didn't understand the old man's suffering.

After Zhu Houzhao finished talking to Xie Qian, he didn't see Xiao Jing's people, so he rushed directly into the Qianqing Palace without saying a word, and then rushed to the dormitory behind, shouting while trotting: "Father, the son is back!" ”

Because the sound was too loud, it directly scared Xiao Jing out of the dormitory.

Xiao Jing pulled Zhu Houzhao, who was shouting, to the gate of Qianqing Palace, and said nervously: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are you doing, Your Majesty...... Resting! ”

Only then did Xie Qian realize that he was "shabu" by Xiao Jing, and he felt that he was waiting outside before, and the emperor might not even know the news.

Zhu Houzhao is not as angry as Xie Qian, he has just seen a hearty battle that suits his heart, and he is still killing a Tartar with his own hands in the city, and he is on the rise, how can he not give up the opportunity to invite credit in front of his father, he puffed up his chest majestically, and said loudly: "Don't stop this palace, this prince has something important to do with his father!" ”

"You don't know, the battle in Xizhimen has just ended, and our reinforcements have finally arrived, and after a fierce battle, the Tartars were finally defeated and fled. Now the reinforcements are outside the Xizhi Gate, if there is no response from the soldiers and horses in the city, they can only defend the situation empty, and the palace comes to ask the father to allow the child to lead the troops out of the city! ”

Xiao Jing basically didn't hear what Zhu Houzhao was talking about, he only knew that it was related to the Xizhimen War, and he said in a pleading tone: "Little ancestor, you can take it easy, Your Majesty's body and bones are not well yet, what do you have to wait for Your Majesty to rest properly?" ”

Zhu Houzhao was furious: "Now my Daming Jiangshan is being invaded by foreign countries, the palace is the crown prince, as the crown prince has no power to dispatch the three armies, now I come to ask my father to send troops, what are you a eunuch here?" Hongu now orders you to get out of the way! Otherwise, people will drag you out of the temple gate and beat you to death, believe it or not? ”

When these words came out, Xiao Jing was stunned.

Xiao Jing thought to himself: "I am dedicated to the royal family, and everything I do is to give priority to the interests of your father and son, and you actually said that you want to beat me to death?" Do you have a conscience? ”

Xie Qian saw that the atmosphere at the scene was tense, and there was a posture of tearing his face without saying a word, so he hurriedly stepped into the gate of the Qianqing Palace, came to the two of them and persuaded him: "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't be angry, or ask Gonggong Xiao to go in and pass the ceremony once, and your Majesty will decide whether to see or not!" ”

After Xie Qian finished speaking, he also glared at Xiao Jing fiercely, as if to say, "You left me outside and waited for nearly two hours, and now you finally met your nemesis, right?" ”

Xiao Jing drooped with a bitter gourd face, and could only go in to talk to Zhu Youji, because Zhu Youzhu was still asleep, even if he woke people up, he was careful to speak.

In the main hall of the Qianqing Palace outside, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said to Xie Qian: "Mr. Xie, thank you very much, otherwise Gonggong Xiao's elm head doesn't know how to perfunctory the palace!" Speaking of which, Mr. Xie has the ability, and he can actually marry Mr. Shen, tsk! ”

No matter how Xie Qian listened, he didn't think it was right, I married Shen Xi Xiao'er, obviously it was Shen Xi Xiao'er who climbed me, why did it sound like I was clinging to that kid?

But for some reason, Xie Qian suddenly felt that his waist was much stiffer, as if he was really stained with Shen Xi's light.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the inside of the dormitory, and after a while, Xiao Jing came out.

Xiao Jing said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty's spirit ...... Still not good...... Don't worry, the prince, and listen to what our family says, Your Majesty is sick, but I heard that the prince and Mr. Xie came for the Xizhimen war, so let our family come out to pass it on. You must be patient when you go in, Your Majesty's body will not be stimulated! ”
