Chapter 42: Zhao Yinglin's Plans

In the blink of an eye, the old beggar had been in the Lu family's pharmacy for almost three months. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old beggar also gradually got used to life here, and he could understand people.

But he himself could not speak.

Every day when he got up, the old beggar would take a broom and sweep the whole street.

If someone greeted him, he smiled at them.

He was in good spirits, but he had a poor recovery in speech.

Li Yan knew that he had forgotten the feeling of speaking, and he had no desire to speak.

"Dumb grandpa, just let me come." Li Huan came out of the house and snatched the broom from the old man with a smile.

The old man held on tightly, and with his other hand, pointed to the house, and asked Lihuan to go back to the house.

The old man was very fond of Lihuan, and all the work of Lihuan was on him.

Li Yan didn't stop it, he originally let Lihuan do those odd jobs, just because children can't develop the bad problem of laziness.

So Li Yan arranged a new task for Lihuan to talk to the old beggar.

Li Huan likes this job very much, in his eyes, every elderly person is a treasure trove of endless wealth.

It's just that the dumb grandfather is a treasure trove, and he doesn't have the key to open him.

The old beggar had some problems with his legs and feet, but Li Yan helped him heal, and Lihuan had been taking care of him in those days.

The old beggar also liked to leave.

Every time he sweeps the house, as long as Lihuan is reading and writing.

His broom will be very light.

The old beggar had forgotten all his previous memories, where he was from, and what his name was.

He only heard people say that only when he was helping the neighborhood did he know that children who read would have a good life.

He really wanted to tell these neighbors that he often read books when he left Huan.

That was the first time he longed to speak.

When the old beggar had finished sweeping the floor, he returned to the drugstore.

Lihuan is reading a book, and Li Yan has not yet returned to the court.

At this time, there was already a lot of noise in the court.

The officials of the prince's family, headed by Wang Xiangda, the secretary of the Ministry of War, accused the southern army of inaction.

The bandits from Longshan have been fighting with the Nanxu army for three days.

At first, the Nanxu army had some concerns, but later, for some reason, they desperately attacked the mountain like crazy.

More than half of the people from Yongsan have been killed or wounded.

At this time, there was no news of Wu Chang.

So Wang Xiangda and others began to accuse the southern army of inaction, and proposed to let the imperial court order to attack Conglongshan.

Li Yan looked at all this coldly and did not speak.

Chao Xingge did not come to the court, and the rest of the generals of the southern army were already red-faced.

Wang Xiangda and others not only pointed the finger at the southern army, but even Wu Chang was viciously criticized by them.

scolded Wu Chang for inaction, scolded Wu Chang for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and scolded Wu Chang for being famous......

In short, they scolded everything they could.

At this moment, Zhao Yingwu suddenly interjected: "It turns out that the Impermanence Sword guards Longshan because he took the silver from the imperial court. ”

Originally, it was just an unintentional remark of a child, but it made Wang Xiangda and several others ashamed.

Yes, Wu Chang guards Longshan, when will he ask for the silver of the imperial court?

Even if the prince said to take out 10,000 taels of silver, Wu Chang didn't pay attention to it at all.

In this case, how can these people be embarrassed to accuse Wu Chang?

In the entire hall, there was a deathly silence, and Wang Xiangda was best at reversing black and white.

If it was the generals of the Southern Army who spoke, Wang Xiangda and they would have a hundred reasons to shirk and confuse.

But it's just a child who speaks, how can they use these methods on a child.

Zhao Yinglin saw Zhao Qi's thoughtful appearance towards Zhao Yingwu, and a wave of irritability rose in his heart.

Zhao Yinglin said: "Father, Lord Wang is not accusing Wu Chang, but worrying about the defeat of the southern army from Longshan, after all, after Longshan, there is only the plain area left, which is very unfavorable to our army, once the southern army is defeated again, the consequences will be unimaginable......

"Is the prince going to surrender?"

The crowd was startled and looked around for someone to speak.

For a long time, the southern army and the Nanxu army won and lost each other, but due to the existence of Conglongshan, as long as the southern army retreated, the pursuit of the Nanxu army would be blocked from Longshan.

Now that Wu Chang has no news, the combat effectiveness of the southern army is not as strong as that of Southern Xu.

It was a matter of time before Yongsan was lost.

Wu Chang's existence made them more dependent, if it weren't for the imperial court's attention to face, the military department would have withdrawn the southern army a long time ago.

So now, as soon as Wu Chang lost the news, the prince retreated.

In fact, the prince's thoughts are also the thoughts of many people, but the prince said it alone.

If Li Yan doesn't speak first, someone will echo him next.

Zhao Yinglin saw that the hundred officials were blocked by Li Yan's words, everyone knew what they knew, but they couldn't say it casually.

Zhao Yinglin said: "Everyone misunderstood, it's not a surrender, it's just a truce." ”

Li Yan said: "Truce, and then cede from Longshan, and then pay for the army?" ”

Zhao Yinglin's face turned cold, and Li Yan's straightforward words seemed to take off the pants of the prince and others in public.

"Your Majesty, after Longshan is all plains, the battle line is long, Nanxu's cavalry can plunder at will, and Longshan is the last barrier that cannot be lost."

Zhao Yinglin snorted coldly and said: "Everyone is a doctor and Taoist, not a master of the art of war, Nanxu has a strong army, but after our army shrinks its strength, even the Nanxu cavalry can fight, so what are you afraid of?" ”

Li Yan said: "Nan Xu has come to my court to pay tribute? ”

"Nanxu is strong, so naturally he will not pay tribute to our court."

"What's the matter with the golden silk soft armor on the prince's body? Could it be that Nanxu paid tribute to the crown prince? ”

As soon as Li Yan's voice fell, Zhao Yinglin secretly said that it was not good.

didn't check it for a while, and fell into Li Yan's plan to attack the west.

On the day of the banquet in the pond forest, he laughed and said that Nanxu paid tribute to the golden silk soft armor.

But where did this golden silk soft armor come from, he knew it in his heart.

Over the years, he has been in contact with Nanxu.

Nanxu's envoy told him that as long as Zhao Yinglin could give up Longhu Mountain, Nanxu would not go north for ten years.

Zhao Yinglin knew that the Canglan army was strong and it was foolproof to resist Northern Liao.

And the western desert, there is very little war.

The only unstable factor is Nanxu.

As long as there is a truce with Nanxu, Zhao Yinglin is confident that his prestige will reach its peak.

At that time, the Hua Dynasty will be in his hands.

His plan was very good, but he made the mistake of not understanding Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi is the emperor of the Hua Dynasty, no matter how much he loves Zhao Yinglin, he did not give up the throne to Zhao Yinglin after all.

But Zhao Yinglin didn't realize this, this time he had already violated Zhao Qi's bottom line by interacting with the envoy of Nanxu.

At present, they are still fighting against Nan Xu, and Zhao Yinglin dares to accept Nan Xu's spies privately.

Yes, it is a spy, who does not go to see the emperor, but goes to see the prince, how can he be called a messenger?

Moreover, in Zhao Yinglin's tone, he admired Nanxu even more, saying that Nanxu was strong, could it be that my Hua Dynasty was weak?

Although this sentence was true, the hundred officials did not react when they heard it.

But Zhao Qi was very angry, this was accusing him, he was the emperor of the Hua Dynasty, the Hua Dynasty was weak, wasn't he weak?

Zhao Qi's eyes glared at Zhao Yinglin, and he was about to say something, when suddenly he glanced at Li Yan again, and the anger in his eyes was forced down and said: "There can be no mistakes from Longshan, let the southern army quickly go up the mountain to support Conglongzhai, and in addition, send spies around Nanxu to find out Wu Chang's whereabouts." Retreat! ”
