5. King Guangling is confused

This person is none other than Hanlin Wang Shuwen.

Wei Zhiyi didn't recognize him, so he could only get up and salute, but the prince was very happy and took the initiative to introduce Wei and said, "This is Mr. Wang, a person from Yuezhou." ”

Wang Shuwen also returned the salute to Wei: "A certain Suzhou Sigong joined the army, and because he knew a little chess, he was able to stay in Zhaodong Palace." ”

The prince stood between the two and said to Wei Zhiyi very excitedly: "Bachelor, Wang Shixue has lofty aspirations, high talents, and good at judging affairs. ”

Since even the prince values Wang Shuwen so much, Wei Zhiyi did not dare to slack off, after the ceremony, Wang Shuwen said that the bachelor is here, is it just to send the praise of the Buddha statue? How can we ignore the current state of affairs?

Wei Zhiyi was both frightened and ashamed when he said this, and hurriedly apologized to the prince.

"As long as you can hand over this note of the widow to the Holy Lord when you are on duty, then it will be fine." At this time, the prince propped up his weak body, took a locked small letter from Wang Shuwen, handed it into Wei Zhiyi's hands, and said sincerely, "Although everyone is soft-spoken, as long as it can make the high-ranking guests come back, I have to try it anyway." ”

Wei Zhiyi was inexplicably moved, accepted the small letter, and then bid farewell to the prince.

After the departure of this bachelor, the building of Shaoyang Academy, Wang Zhongyan, the envoy of Shaoyang Academy, Wang Shuwen and Wang Ling, as well as the crown princess Xiao, and the imperial grandson Li Chun's biological mother Wang, as well as a cow beauty, immediately gathered in the pavilion.

"Master Wei is really a pure character, but is Your Majesty really willing to let Ji Gong make a comeback?" The prince still had doubts in his mind.

Wang Shuwen replied with a smile: "The servant thinks that Your Majesty asked Master Wei to send Zanwen, but he has actually told His Highness the answer. ”

"Oh?"

"Wei Zhiyi is a bachelor of commitment, if the high-ranking guest really wants to lose his phase, how can he finish alone? Everyone in the court knows that this Wei Zhiyi was carried by a high-ranking guest in Xingyuan Mansion, and now the holy lord called Wei Zhiyi to send a tribute, in fact, he tactfully conveyed to His Highness that it is good for this high-ranking guest to make a comeback, but I hope that Your Highness will make this suggestion. ”

The prince understood this sentence, he was very moved, wiped his tears, choked up and said to the people around him: "The widow is not virtuous, and he actually makes His Majesty worry about this." ”

The people around also wept and raised their hands to congratulate the crown prince.

"Grandfather wants Father to go to this way, and then push the boat down the river and use Gao Yue - so that Gao Yue will be like that Zhuge Wuhou, not only to assist Grandfather, but also to assist Father in the future." In the corridor next to the pavilion, Li Chun, who was already fourteen years old, handed over the "Huang Ting Jing", and when he heard the plan of the people in Shaoyang Academy, he asked the little yellow door on his side.

"King Guangling, you guessed correctly, Your Majesty is doing this for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Tutu Chengxuan hurriedly replied.

"Good means, good means." Li Chun, who has been canonized as the king of Guangling and is about to marry his wife from the Fenyang Palace, couldn't help but say this.

I don't know if it's Emperor Li Shi's good means, or his father's good means, or someone else......

But the young Li Chun's expression immediately became melancholy, he was worried that if his grandfather was there, he would flatten the entire country, so what opportunity could he leave to create performance for himself?

"If in the future, I don't have grace anymore, the city is in Gaoyue, then how should I ......," Li Chun pondered.

At night, in the east hall of the Jinluan Palace, the emperor was overjoyed, with one hand on his arched knees, and the other hand reading the notes sent by the prince, and then after closing them, he said to Wei Zhiyi: "I know this matter, you know, the prince knows, and it must not be leaked out." ”

Wei Zhiyi hurriedly agreed.

Then the emperor cautiously asked: "When the crown prince handed it over to you, no one else was present, right?" ”

This question made Wei Zhiyi's heart froze, but he still lied to the emperor, saying that this performance was all done by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and there was no one to advise.

"That's good, you don't know, the prince is kind-hearted, but he is a little indecisive, lacks the ability to make decisions, and when the time comes, he may need a good assistant who can help him sit on the throne more than me, and I don't want him to obey the women of his courtiers everywhere now." The Emperor confided in him.

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of bells from the East Academy, and Wei Zhiyi hurriedly retreated, and after a while, he returned to the East Hall with a pale face.

"What, the official army suffered a crushing defeat at Xiaoli River?" When the emperor heard Wei Zhiyi's report, he couldn't help but be nervous and angry, and his fingers kept opening and clenching.

He also knew that the moment of truth had come.

In the West Hall, Zhao Jing, the new Chinese scholar, is trying hard to explore all kinds of news on the copy, wanting to clean up the "chess game" of the official army against the Huaixi rebels, he can no longer be a wordless tablet, if something goes wrong on the front line during this time, the emperor will definitely blame him.

But at this moment, the candles outside were blaring, "Everyone! With this shout, the emperor's face was grim, wearing a red and yellow robe, and he actually came to the west hall of the Jinluan Palace.

Zhao Jing hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Xiaoluhe, the defeat of the imperial court." The emperor's language was very short, but it was like a thunderbolt, and Zhao Jing was immediately covered with sweat and at a loss.

In the entire West Hall, all the calligraphers were also so frightened that they knelt on the ground.

However, the emperor did not intend to pour out his anger on others, but Wei Zhiyi stepped forward and told Zhao Jing about the general process of the defeat of the official army in this war.

"Xuan, Li Wanrong, the envoy of the Xuanwu Army, actually broke away from the battle line and withdrew to Songzhou by the trail when the Huaixi Army attacked?" Zhao Jing couldn't believe his ears.

It turned out that Wu Shaoyang and Dong Chongzhi led 15,000 Huaixi soldiers to confront various officials and troops at the Xiaopu River.

Although the number of officers and soldiers was large, the command was not unified at all, and the generals and envoys of each army were in the tabernacle as follows:

A and B have a contradiction, and A's military envoy and B's military envoy also make a fuss for this reason, and then everyone makes a lot of noise, eager to draw their swords and stab each other;

Out of consideration for the overall situation, they came to persuade peace, shouting, "Stop, stop, don't fight anymore." ”

So in order to ease the atmosphere, A, B, C, and D began to hold a high party again, and drank so much that his face was red, and it was really "half dead in front of the soldier army, and the beauties were still singing and dancing under the tent".

Wu Shaoyang, on the other hand, frequently dispatched mule soldiers to conduct armed reconnaissance of the official army camp on a small scale, and then took advantage of the early morning of one day to forcibly cross the Xiaoli River under the cover of dense clouds and raid the official army.

The arrows and arrows were exchanged sharply, and the 30,000 Xuanwu soldiers suddenly retreated, and the flanks of the officers and troops were completely exposed.

Subsequently, Dong Jin, the envoy of Shannan Dongdao, did not understand the military and did not care about his subordinates, and took the lead in defeat.

In the end, only the three armies of Longxiang, Zhongwu, and Zhenyi of the left battalion of the Shence Army, and the rear army of the Shenwei Palace of Liu Chang, Zhang Wanfu, and Ling Hujian stepped forward to fight to the death, and fired artillery guns from the other side, killing many Huaixi soldiers who broke through.

However, Dong Chongzhi led thousands of mule troops, attacked the rear camp of the official army from other roads, wantonly killed and burned, the Shence and Shenwei troops were defeated, and the baggage equipment was abandoned like a mountain, and the generals hurriedly collected the defeated troops and retired to the five-floor village.
