Chapter 289: The Huns Stir
The palace guards are an abbreviation, and they belong to the sword and halberd battalion, one of the eight battalions of the guards, along with a large number of honor guards in the palace, but they are not under the command of the general of the guards, and the so-called guards actually only have seven battalions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The official position of the guard Wang He is the captain of the left gate of the sword and halberd battalion, the sixth grade, the level is not very high, and the number of guards under him can reach 200 when the staff is full, and he is directly ordered by the eunuchs in the palace, usually the middle supervisor, or the imperial horse supervisor, and the middle permanent attendant.
Like the other guards, Wang He had an innocent family background and went through many tests to obtain the qualification to protect the emperor and become one of the five major guards leaders.
Yang Feng trusted this person and once recommended it to the emperor very seriously, and Han Ruzi also had great expectations for him, so after the second watch, he asked Zhang Youcai to call Wang He and bypassed Liu Jie, the central supervisor.
"Nine times out of ten, the treasure seal has fallen into the hands of Wang Jianhuo, you go and get it back, you can bring as many people as you need, and the deadline I give you is before midnight the day after tomorrow." Han Ruzi couldn't put all his hopes on the torturers.
"Yes." Wang He was a taciturn man who knelt on the ground and received his orders.
"Be confidential."
"Yes."
"Baoxi was in the hands of a female guard, you may recognize her, her name is Meng E, if possible, find her whereabouts." Han Ruzi still didn't understand why Meng E absconded with Yin in the first place, "You have to live." He added.
"Yes." Wang He withdrew from the tent and didn't ask a word, nor did he mention how many people he was going to bring.
Zhang Youcai served the emperor to change his clothes, "This ugly king is too bold, he refuses to return the treasure seal, and he dares to make a bet with His Majesty, even if he wins, His Majesty can still kill him, right?" ”
"Some people want to be famous, and I have to win against him." Not long after Han Ruzi regained the throne, it was the most sensitive time for imperial power, he was not in a hurry to kill people and establish power, he just wanted to find out as soon as possible what the emperor "could do".
After a night of speech, Han Ruzi didn't sleep very well, got up early, and looked at the copy of the piece sent by the capital for a while, Yang Feng's reply was in good order, and it was basically in line with the emperor's wishes.
The previous unfortunate puppet emperor was buried with Concubine Cui and Champion Hou, and his identity was Xiaoyao Hou.
At the beginning, some officials played, proposing to set up the emperor's biological mother as the second queen mother, but the reply was not agreed, Han Ruzi knew that this was also the meaning of his mother himself, and he was not in a hurry, and after he toured the world, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces would compete to ask for the queen mother, and then it would be more deserved.
There is a copy of Yang Feng deliberately marked "Yulan" with a red pen, the chapter is from the Ministry of Rites, the matter is not big, the Xiongnu envoys have been stranded for a long time, several times asked to leave Beijing and return to the grassland, the Ministry of Rites felt that it could be agreed, Yang Feng's approval was to put back most of them, leaving four people to be sent to the emperor's camp.
The Huns were going to war again.
Da Dan Yu seems to be sincere in his desire to ally with Da Chu, but the Huns have long been accustomed to bullying the soft and afraid of the hard for many years, once Da Chu shows a little weakness, the Hun cavalry can't help but want to go south to loot, the ugly king is right, the Huns must be defeated, and the border must be kept peaceful for three or five years before peace talks can continue.
Han Ruzi planned to take this as an agenda item at this morning's court meeting, and discuss it with Chai Yue and others in the afternoon.
Time is pressing, and there are so many things to do, Han Ruzi can't be busy even if he doesn't eat or sleep alone, when he meets with the accompanying officials, he asks Liu Zeqin, the head of the household department, to preside over the daily morning court, this is not an appointment, nor an official title, but it means a great future, Liu Zeqin thanked him, and tried to suppress the excitement in his heart.
Han Ruzi hopes that this will make Liu Shilang more active when he oversees the opening of the warehouse and the release of grain.
However, the accompanying officials were of relatively low rank, did not dare to express their opinions on major matters, and could not make any useful suggestions about the threat of the Huns.
At the end of the court meeting, the torturer Zhang Jing came to report the situation, he had dug up a lot of clues, and swore that he would be able to find the treasure seal before noon tomorrow.
There were too many copies of the chapter sent by the capital, Han Ruzi continued to browse, and the king of the East China Sea was sent in by the eunuch Liu Jie, and slowly approached, waiting for the emperor to free up to talk to him.
"How?" Han Ruzi asked without raising his head, these chapters are too trivial, Yuan Lin Jian wants to dig a pond, the Ministry of Rites thinks it is not very useful, the Ministry of Household claims that there is a problem with the cost estimate, and the Ministry of Industry says that it is too wasteful to only dig a pond, so it is better to take the opportunity to dredge the river......
All parties come and go, and there are more than 30 pieces of music accumulated, and Han Ruzi is very big.
"It was Tan Diao's idea to ask the ugly king for help, he wrote a letter, no, he sent a letter, there was not a word in the letter, and he asked someone to hand it over to the ugly king, probably everything is in plain sight."
Han Ruzi couldn't help but look up and smile.
"What's wrong?" The King of the East Sea asked inexplicably.
"It's nothing, this is the second wordless letter I've heard, it seems that the people of Jianghu like this." The last time Han Ruzi heard something similar from Yang Feng, Yang's father had written a wordless letter to a hero before his death, entrusting it to his wife.
"Well, no matter what, the Tan family bowed their heads to the ugly king, and they didn't hide it, the world knew it. From this point of view, the ugly king really can't kill the Tan family. The King of the East China Sea stared at the emperor, "The entire Luoyang City is boiling, and it is said that Your Majesty made a bet with the Ugly King to see who can find the treasure seal first, isn't it true?" ”
"The ugly king offered to make a bet, but I didn't accept it."
The King of the East China Sea was still staring at the emperor, "But the gamble still exists?" ”
Only the King of the East China Sea could understand the emperor's thoughts, and Han Ruzi waited for a while and said, "If it were you, would you refuse?" ”
"It's impossible to 'change it to me'." The King of the East China Sea cautiously avoided it, but he did have some thoughts in his heart, "But I can make a little suggestion, Your Majesty should not summon the Ugly King in the first place, although he is related to the clan, after all, he is just a grass people, and a summoning can hold him to the sky, as long as he opens his mouth, His Majesty accepts it or not, and it is not a refusal, and he is in a dilemma." Chai Yueke gave His Majesty a problem. ”
"It's better to be in a dilemma than to be in a light and a dark." Han Ruzi didn't regret summoning the ugly king, let alone being angry with Chai Yue, "That holy army master has been hiding in the shadows, I hope he can stand up and bet with me." ”
"Your Majesty is full of energy, and no one can match the enemy." There is always a little sourness in the touting of the King of the East China Sea, "What should you do after Your Majesty wins?" Kill the Ugly King's family or exile him? ”
The king of the East China Sea is actually inquiring about the Tan family, and the fate of the ugly king is the fate of the Tan family.
Han Ruzi was clear about this, and said with a smile: "The heroes of the rivers and lakes live by their names, and only kill them without going to their names, which can't solve many problems, Emperor Wu has killed so many heroes, but the result is that everyone is still chivalrous, and they are one after another, and it has only been a few years, and the heroes have been all over the world." ”
"This is also true, I think at the beginning, the Tan family was just a big family of horse herding and business, and the ugly king didn't have much chivalrous name in addition to being scary ugly, but as a result, Emperor Wu used his power to eradicate the old heroes, but they came out."
"Isn't the original chivalrous name of the Tan family coming from taking care of the dependents of the punished heroes? The Ugly King is probably the same. ”
The King of the East China Sea nodded, "It's a pity that these people are too obsessed with chivalrous names, or too stupid, and refuse to listen to my persuasion, so they have to ask for help from the other party's heroes, alas, the Tan family is really ...... However, the princess is very open-minded, she said that she is willing to gamble and lose, and if the Tan family and I lose, we will lose, and we should abide by the duties of our subjects from now on......"
It is not the Tan family that the king of the East China Sea wants to save, but the princess alone.
Han Ruzi didn't answer, and suddenly said, "Do you like the East China Sea?" ”
The expression of the King of the East China Sea changed, "Your Majesty ......"
"Don't be afraid, I'm wondering if to move you to the frontier, the Huns are ready to move again, and now the border is guarded by Yan, Zhao, and Dai, the two kings are old, and one king is young, they are not enough, maybe you can."
The King of the East China Sea was dumbfounded, his mind was spinning, thinking about the impact of this incident on himself, "It is a great honor to be able to gain His Majesty's trust, of course I have no opinion, I can go anywhere, I am afraid that I am not capable enough and will insult the holy will." ”
Han Ruzi just said casually, he hadn't made a decision yet, and he was not at ease when the frontier town was handed over to the King of the East China Sea, so he sighed, "The Xiongnu in the north, the bandits in the south, and the homeless people are everywhere, each of them is not difficult to solve, but it is a big trouble to bump into each other." ”
"Southern bandits? Your Majesty wants to eradicate Yun Mengze? ”
"Yun Mengze has become a place of refuge for heroes, the court can see it loosely, heroes invade Lu Lane, the court grasps it tightly, heroes enter Zeze as thieves, and they have to cut off their back roads in order to restrain heroes."
The King of the East China Sea laughed twice, "Your Majesty is really ambitious, I heard that Emperor Wu sent troops to clear Yunmengze several times, but they were not successful because of the treacherous terrain. ”
Han Ruzi sighed, "There are no generals in my hands, King of the East China Sea, I didn't expect that after becoming a real emperor, there are still not many people available in the Manchu Dynasty, but I can't see people?" Or will I not be able to use people? ”
The king of the East China Sea only had a dry smile left, the emperor's topic was too sensitive, and he didn't dare to answer.
Han Ruzi didn't expect to get an answer, "You have to hire people first, and then you can pick people, and after solving these three major troubles, there will always be some people who will be revealed." ”
"Clever plan." The king of the East China Sea praised, but he was wondering in his heart what the emperor's intention was in revealing these words to him.
Soon after noon, Han Ruzi summoned more than ten generals including Cui Hong, Chai Yue, and Fang Daye to discuss the matter of resisting the Xiongnu.
Cui Hong knew that he was not fully trusted, so he rarely spoke, Fang Daye's temper was even less to say and more to do, and even said it when he was doing, only Chai Yue talked eloquently, "In last year's battle of Broken Iron City, the Huns were not convinced by the loss, and they really need to fight another battle." However, the southern and northern armies have been fighting for a long time, and it is not appropriate to move again. His Majesty had already ordered all localities to recruit displaced people into the army, so it was better to collect more and send them to the frontier to fight with the Xiongnu. ”
"It's all civilians, can they fight so fast?" Han Ruzi knew very well that no matter how large the number of rabble, it was not as good as a few elite divisions.
"If you go deep into the grassland to pursue the Huns, these people can't do it, if you defend the city and wait for battle, you only need to use veterans to bring new soldiers, and you can still fight." Chai Yue had already planned how many troops were stationed in the cities on the frontier and how many recruits he could absorb.
The others could only listen and nod their heads.
Liu Jie, the central supervisor, suddenly broke in, Han Ruzi had already ordered that he should not be disturbed if he had to do something, and looked up at Liu Jie, hoping that what he brought was not trivial things such as digging ponds in the capital garden.
Liu Jie walked quickly to the table and handed an urgent document to the emperor, with a serious expression, obviously something really important.
Han Ruzi opened the paperwork and glanced at it, stood up and looked at the confused generals, "The King of England is the emperor in the East China Sea, and Shangguan Sheng calls himself a general, and he is marching towards the Qi Kingdom. ”
Everyone was taken aback, Shangguan Sheng was obviously dead, they all saw the head, how could another one suddenly appear in the East China Sea Kingdom? (To be continued.) )
