Chapter 32: Master and Apprentice Father and Son (II)

"Call Brother Huan over!"

"Official, it's so late this day, Brother Huan'er ......" An old eunuch outside the door bowed slightly, although no one saw it, he still showed his respect meticulously.

When Emperor Xuanhe heard this, he suddenly became unusually irritable, directly picked up the teacup on the table, threw it on the ground, and shouted angrily, "I said to let you call him over!" Do you want me to repeat it a third time? ”

"Yes, the official, the villain will go in person!"

It didn't take long for Song Huan to come to the door of the imperial study.

You must know that this East Palace is actually in the Forbidden City, but the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty generally serves as the governor of Tokyo City. Therefore, the prince's actual permanent residence is the Tokyo Prefectural Government. It is also fortunate that today, Song Heng, as the crown prince, went to congratulate the national teacher Lin Jing's Shenxiao Wanshou Palace on the opening of the Shenxiao Longevity Palace, and then returned to the East Palace.

Fortunately, this prince has never been liked by Emperor Xuanhe, and he has always been trembling and walking on thin ice, which can come so quickly.

"Official, Brother Huan is here." The eunuch was very clever and did not go in, but said softly outside the door. Having lived in this palace all his life, he certainly understood what it was like for the official family to come back tonight, so he didn't want to touch his head at all.

"Let him in!"

At this time, Song Huan paused, tidied up his clothes, and then pushed open the door and walked in.

Just a light glance, he saw the fragments of the teacup on the floor of the room, stepped forward very cautiously, and saluted respectfully, "Erchen greets his father, and his father is Jin'an." ”

Emperor Xuanhe saw that his prince was so detained, he was a little disdainful, as an emperor who could have a high level of education, Emperor Xuanhe was actually a literati, calligraphy was good, Danqing was also good, good poetry, so he had the common problems of literati!

This is also the reason why he has always looked down on the prince, too old, too restrained, and not a little bit of his style. Flowing chic bearing.

This matter is known to the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, but no one dares to propose to abolish the crown prince, because the eldest son inherits the crown prince as the prince, which is a fact that no one can change. Emperor Xuanhe was originally the younger brother of the first emperor, if it wasn't for the fact that the first emperor died without a queen, how could it be his turn to inherit the throne.

Even so, his next generation still follows the ancestral law, and his eldest son Song Huan was made the crown prince very early.

"Brother Huan, I ask you, if one day Wei Lu Iron Horse goes south, what will you do?" Emperor Xuanhe didn't have the patience to say anything to Song Ji at all, but asked such a question directly.

Song Huan was stunned, he never thought that his father would ask him this kind of question, not to mention this kind of national policy, that is, he rarely participates in the official affairs of Tokyo City Mansion Yin, just because this father does not like him, for fear that his behavior will be suspicious.

What's going on today?

stood up, looked up at Emperor Xuanhe, and saw that he had always been indifferent and chic. Liu's father, today's expression seemed to be a little panicked, and the anxiety between his eyebrows and eyes made him feel a little puzzled, but in the face of his father's question, how could Song Huan dare not answer.

"How many people should Wei Yu have, how many men and horses can be dispatched, my Great Zhou Dynasty, there are 800,000 forbidden troops alone, can you still resist it, even if he is all cavalry, good mobility, we still have the Yellow River Heavenly Immortals, enough to stop him in the north of the Yellow River, to keep my Great Zhou safe."

Song Huan is actually not a straw bag, just looking at him for so many years standing as the crown prince, it can be seen, and this person's mind is meticulous, and the depth of the calculation of the city is that Lin Jingjing dare not underestimate it. These words can be described as the golden mean, there are not too many advantages, but the victory is to be old and serious, and there are no mistakes.

A prince who has been able to fight against Lin Jing for several years is so light.

But now he had made up his mind in his heart to find out what the father and Lin Jing were talking about tonight.

Knowing the father is more than the son.

Song Huan understood that the question asked by Emperor Xuanhe today would be the key to determining his future status.

Emperor Xuanhe's nervousness eased slightly, but the horror in the depths of his eyes still flashed from time to time, of course he knew that Song Huan was right, because this was his idea in itself, in fact, he was also skeptical about what Lin Jing told him. You must know that the current Wei Yu is just a land that has just been founded, and its territory is only a few states, and it is in the bitter cold land of Liaodong outside the Guan.

The most important thing is that they have a hostile feud with the big business in the sea.

The Great Shang has been established for hundreds of years, which is longer than the Great Zhou. The national strength is strong, the soldiers are at their peak, even if they are as strong as the big Shang who is a big country with a strong armor of millions of dollars, they are not afraid of the Great Zhou, and even in the battle of the Shang and Zhou Dynasty, the Great Shang drove straight into it several times, but only reached the edge of the Yellow River, and was defeated by the Yellow River and the Great Zhou army.

Therefore, he actually didn't believe that a Wei Lu with only one or two thousand troops would go south to herd horses and destroy the country and the Yi clan in less than ten years!

"What if they crossed the Yellow River? South of the Yellow River, the Central Plains, flat and fertile, can be said to be the best battlefield for their cavalry, thousands of miles across the city, rushing to Tokyo City? Out of trust in Lin Jing and the loyalty that Lin Jing had always brought him, Emperor Xuanhe couldn't help but ask again.

Although I don't know the specific way, since Lin Jing foresaw it, then Wei Yu may really have a way to cross the Yellow River quickly!

Song Huan's eyes moved slightly, and he just thought for a few breaths and said with a smile, "Even if he can cross the river quickly, how many soldiers and horses can he cross?" Could it be that I didn't take precautions at all in Da Zhou? ”

"Even if the soldiers are coming to the city, my Tokyo City is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, standing in Kyushu for one or two hundred years, since Taizu has been strengthening the defense of this Tokyo City, I dare not say anything else, close the city gate, and it is not difficult to protect Tokyo City from breaking down in March. With millions of residents in Tokyo, enough food in stock, sharp armor, and 800,000 forbidden troops as the backing, can the battle to defend the city still be won? ”

Speaking of this, it seems that Song Huan was also inspired to be proud, and after waving his sleeves, he said a little passionately, "To defend the city to thwart his bravery, there is a forbidden army inside, and there is a box army outside. ”

Although Emperor Xuanhe had regained his composure, he listened carefully to Song Huan's words, and sometimes nodded involuntarily, to be honest, he thought so too. Although Zhang Xianggong once said that he was not as good as a human monarch, but after so many years of emperor sitting down, he also had a little vision in his heart. It's no longer the idle prince who relied on a few righteous brothers and a few military ministers to support his ascension to the throne!

"Well, that's a good point."

Emperor Xuanhe nodded, but expressed his attitude expressionlessly, without appreciation or refutation, just such a sentence, he waved his hand, and said slowly, "It's late at night, Brother Huan'er should go and rest early, there will be a big court meeting tomorrow, you can also participate!" ”

Song Huan said goodbye almost calmly, and then left. He was used to Emperor Xuanhe's attitude, but he didn't have too much resentment, after all, he also knew that he was not the prince that his father liked, but he was the crown prince!

When Song Huan, who had been walking all the way, returned to the East Palace, he really couldn't help jumping up all of a sudden, and the surprise on his face was beyond words.

No refutation is appreciation!

What's more, at tomorrow's court meeting, he, Song Huan, the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, will be in the court!
