Chapter 485: The more frustrated the stronger, the stronger the party is, the better the hero

The first time Zhang Chao, who faced the saint alone, was already sweating profusely. Although the carrot charcoal was burned in the palace early, it was indeed very hot, but the reason why he was sweaty and heavy was because of the emperor's anger. Although he once made a lot of limelight in the martial arts training field of Jingwei Dabi, so he was personally praised by the emperor and was quite important, but since that time, he has only been able to enter the palace to thank the public, etc., and he doesn't even need to participate in the court meeting, where have you seen such a scene?

What made him even more palpitating was that at that time, he didn't dare to hide it a little, and 1510 said those things at the beginning, but Zhu Di actually smashed the lid of the tea bowl with his hand. He didn't dare to dodge at that moment, and although the lid didn't hit him, the sound of the clatter and the roar that followed seemed to still ring in his ears.

"Bastard thing! Your Lao Tzu has been in Jiaolu for more than ten years, and it is easy to go back to the court to take care of his birthday, and he is stunned to go out of town again in places that no one else wants, not for his son! You're good, remember to hug yourself when you lead the army! Why did Zhang You raise such a useless thing as you, no matter how high your martial arts are, you don't know the general situation and don't know how to advance or retreat? Your younger brother is a civil official who is more bloody than you, and I can't wait for you to be the one who is trapped in Xinghe Fort now! Get out of here, I can't see you like you have no interest and no responsibility! ”

"Little uncle, hurry up, this is not a place to stand and be stunned at the gate of the Qianqing Palace!"

Liu Yongcheng, the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch, went up the last step, and when he passed by Zhang Chao's side, he gave a faint reminder, and then entered the main hall. Knowing from a few serving little eunuchs that the emperor was in the Dongnuan Pavilion, he slowly tidied up the robes on his body, and then followed the corridor to the door, and made a report through the curtain, and when there was a response from inside, someone picked up the corner of the door curtain, and he hurriedly bowed in.

"The old slave knocks on the emperor's ......"

"What's going on over there in Xinghe?"

In the face of this extremely impatient tone, Liu Yongcheng couldn't help but glance at Zhu Di quietly, and seeing that his face was dull, he immediately put away his habit of beating around the bush, and said concisely: "Just now Haishou sent a messenger from Xuanfu, and it is said that Xinghe only sent a messenger to Wanquan to ask for help at the beginning, and there has been no news since then. Wan Quan sent five groups of scouts in a row, but only one group came back by luck, saying that the Tartars were so powerful this time, at least tens of thousands of people. Since the specific situation is not yet accurate, Xing Anbo is worried that he will rashly attack the trap of the Tartars, so the fortresses around the Outer Great Wall have been strictly guarded. ”

"He's cautious!"

Even if Liu Yongcheng was an old man who had been following Zhu Di since the Yan Wangfu, after hearing such a simple five words at this time, he couldn't figure out what the emperor meant. Although Xing'anbo Xu Heng is only the grandson of the first generation of Xing'anbo, his favor over the years is still very good.

"What else did the first say that Aru fled from Taipei, and there were many internal disputes in Tatar, since he fled north and there was civil strife, how could he disturb Kaiping first, and then go straight to Xinghe so quickly? What are the benefits of taking over Xinghe, which is worthy of Arutai's mobilization? Speaking of this, Zhu Di slapped the handrail heavily, but he didn't expect Liu Yongcheng to answer at all, but ordered in a deep voice, "Let the left guard of Xuanfu go out of Zhangjiakou Fort, and the right guard of Wanquan go out of Yutailing, to ensure that the Tartars will not enter the Great Wall." Ordered the British Gong Zhang Fuwu An Hou Zheng Heng An Yuan Hou Liu Sheng and the six ministries to immediately discuss the peace affair, and let Zhang Fu come to see me after the discussion. ”

When Liu Yongcheng retreated, Zhu Di stood up angrily and came to the desk. Seeing the pile of twists and turns that were as high as a small mountain, he couldn't help but feel angry again, and simply pointed to the thick stack of things and ordered: "Move all these things to Duanben Palace, and tell the prince that except for military affairs, these cumbersome affairs will be handled by him in the future, and don't bother me with everything!" In addition, let the Jinyi guard command Yuan Fang come over as soon as possible, I don't believe that he has to delay for so long for a trivial matter! ”

Seeing that the desk was quickly emptied, Zhu Di felt a little more comfortable. At this time, the little eunuch next to him cautiously reminded him that it was time for dinner, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, and directly picked up the Zhu pen and wrote a Zhu character on the paper. Squinting his eyes at the big Zhu character, he gradually showed a thoughtful expression, and then put down his pen and turned around, but he was staring at the map in front of him that covered half of the wall.

It was easy for Arutai to bypass Xinghe, and it was not impossible to attack Xinghe before transporting supplies and weapons, why was it so coincidental? It is true that the Mongols are not afraid of the wind and snow, but on a cold day, they suddenly make a big move against an earthen fort, what do these predatory guys think? Although Zhang Yue commanded Wang Zhao to accompany him on this trip, Xinghe was not a strong city, so could he hold it? It is easy to send reinforcements, but it is good for his generals to make a small fight, and if they rush to help but fall into an ambush, it will be more than worth the loss. But if Xinghe loses, won't the gains outweigh the losses?

At this moment, Zhu Di, who has always been conceited and brave, was a little confused. There were also a few people under his command who could be called generals, Qiu Fu was counted as one, Zhu Neng was counted as one, and Zhang Yu was also counted as one. But Zhang Yu died in battle, Zhu Neng died early, and Qiu Fu simply did not protect the funeral teacher and humiliate the country in the later season. Zhang Fu is naturally the first person in the younger generation, but in addition, he can't find a talent who can be a general on his own, but he can't entrust Zhang Fu to everything, and he has to keep the position of employing people for his son and grandson.

"Your Majesty, the commander of the Jinyi Guard asked Yuan Fang to see him."

Hearing this low announcement, Zhu Di immediately came back to his senses, and then nodded and ordered Xuanjin. When the others had come in and saluted, he gestured with his eyes, "How is the matter going?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Mu Sheng, the prince of Qianguo, was indeed selfish when he matched Zhang You and that Yi girl. The Duke of Qianguo succeeded his father and brother in Yunnan, and he was not good at using soldiers, but relying on the residual power of the Mu family, the chieftain had to be subdued. Mangshi Tusi has only one daughter, and only one nephew. Because this Tusi has always been arbitrary and in excellent health, he is ready to recruit a son-in-law for his daughter, and his grandson inherits the position of Tusi, so the nephew bribed the Duke of Qianguo with a lot of money, and tried to make the Tusi of Mangshi pay tribute to the gold by one percent, promising that he will add another three percent after the Tusi in the future. It just so happened that the Yi girl had saved Zhang You a few times by chance, as if she had fallen in love, and Qian Guogong used some means. ”

Seeing that Yuan Fang didn't say any more, Zhu Di couldn't help but snort angrily, where did he not know what this was next. He has long known that Zhang You can endure it, and even if he provokes women outside, he will not rush to bring it back. If it weren't for Mu Sheng's frequent speaking for him in the recital, because Zhang Fu wanted to avoid suspicion, Zhang You would not have been promoted all the way to the general, and then became the deputy commander-in-chief. At this moment, he was angry in his heart, thinking of the words that Ma Qi had said when he came back from Jiaolu and cried bitterly in front of him, his heart was even more shaken.

Yuan Fang, who is good at observing words and feelings, can't see the change in the emperor's expression, but after all, he can't reverse black and white, he just doesn't do this thing, and the emperor has another way, so he just stands there and doesn't say a word. It was a long time before he heard a faint voice from above.

"Come on, go to Wenyuan Pavilion to summon Yang Rong, and then go to Hanlin Academy to call Shen Guo."

This is the meaning of the purpose. Yuan Fang, who knew this well, hurriedly retired, and waited until he came down the steps of the Qianqing Palace and came to the gate of the Qianqing Gate along the avenue, and he thought of an important question - the emperor did not ask Zhang Chao about the life or death of the suspicious outer room! It's all a good thing done by that guy who doesn't know the severity, and now that woman is not good to kill, it's even worse to keep, it's a hot potato!

I don't know what happened to Zhang Yue, who was trapped in Xinghe...... Even if this side can negotiate a resolution as soon as possible, even if it sends troops to help immediately, this back and forth will have to be delayed for three days, will it be able to hold on?

When Zhang Chao returned home with a calm face, it was already evening. As soon as he saw him come back, the porter who was waiting for the stars and the moon on the door hurriedly sent someone to report inside, but no one dared to make do with Zhang Chao, lest he touch the mold. And Zhang Chao was not in the mood to pay attention to the situation of these subordinates at all, he just cared about walking with his head down, and when he was about to reach the second gate, he saw his younger brother Zhang Qi waiting there, and his face changed slightly.

"Second Brother ......"

Zhang Qisan rushed up in two steps, and asked nervously, "How is it, have you explained it to the emperor?" ”

"Explanation...... To do it wrong is to do it wrong, and it is useless to explain anything. Zhang Chao smiled bitterly, and even hugged Zhang Qi's arm with both hands, "Second brother, I am not angry, not only harming myself, but also harming my family, and maybe my father." I'm afraid that my future will be limited in the future, second brother, don't be as confused as me and do wrong things. ”

"Big brother, what did your mother-in-law say this, what did the emperor say!"

Zhang Qi was so angry at this time that he broke free from Zhang Chao's hand. Seeing his dejected smile, he was even more angry, so he grabbed his shoulders and shouted: "Even if it's demotion and exile or something else, you have to have an explanation!" Don't talk about mother, even grandmother seems to ignore it, but she is actually worried about you! Now that my father and uncle and third uncle are not here, and the third brother is also outside, no matter what setbacks you have, you have to be a big brother to show everyone! ”

"It's just that there is no way to be a hereditary official in the future, it's nothing...... I really wish I had my third brother and I swapped. Do you know, the third brother has an accident. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Zhang Qi was stunned on the spot, but even Gu Bin, who had just quit Gu's family not far away, and Zhang Zhen, who sent him out, were also stunned. Gu Bin almost stepped forward, and asked Zhang Chao: "The eldest cousin is more plain, what does it mean that the third cousin has an accident?" ”

Seeing that several younger brothers were looking at him, Zhang Chao hesitated for a moment before explaining: "The emperor said that the Arutai army surrounded Xinghe, and the third brother was trapped inside. ”

"How is this possible! What if the third brother has something to do with his younger siblings, and besides, Jingguan is only a few months old! ”

Zhang Qi, the most anxious child, couldn't help but stomp his foot hard, and everyone else was silent. After a while, Gu Bin arched his hand and said, "I'm going to see the teacher to inquire about the news, go first!" ”

Seeing that Gu Bin was in a hurry, Zhang Zhen came to his senses in an instant, and said to Zhang Chao word by word: "How long can this matter be hidden, grandmother can't withstand this blow, and the third sister-in-law can't withstand this blow!" Big brother doesn't have to be discouraged, he can't be a hereditary official, so he will earn one for himself in the future, don't you still have a martial art? The more frustrated and stronger, the better the man! ”
