Chapter 435: The Dream of the Qin People in the Northern Expedition
Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the soldiers of the Qin army to the northern expedition and defeat the Fu Jian thief army! Then recover the Central Plains, restore the old capitals of the two capitals, recover Shenzhou, and rebuild China!
As soon as Qin Feng's sonorous words came out, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty praised everyone! They said that the king of Qin had such ambitions, why should he worry that the thief army would not be destroyed? Why worry about Hu Lu not dying? The soldiers of the Qin army are unparalleled in combat power, and this battle will definitely be a success, and the traitors will be defeated!
The faction of Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and the faction of Fengyuan on the left and right, they all seemed to be reasonable when they spoke out to support the Qin army to send troops to the Northern Expedition! It's just quite puzzling that Taiwei Huanwen's faction actually agreed with Qin Feng to lead his troops to the Northern Expedition!
Above this court, the unexpected word of the people, not only Qin Feng frowned slightly, but Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, was even more puzzled, and he couldn't understand at all, what was Taiwei Huanwen's plan? What the hell is he trying to do?
According to common sense, at this time, the northern Hulu invaded the border, and Taiwei Huan Wen should take the initiative to ask Ying, fight with Qin Feng, and grab the Northern Expedition! Because only in this way can Taiwei Huan Wen truly hold all the military power of the Jin Dynasty firmly in his own hands!
But at this time, not only did he not fight, but he smiled and praised: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin has commendable ambitions, and the soldiers of the Qin army will definitely make contributions and rebuild Xuanhuang!" ”
Saying that, Taiwei Huan Wen said to Sima Dan, Emperor Mu of Jin on the dragon throne: "Your Majesty, the northern Hu cavalry is powerful, and the Qin army's strong bow and crossbow are invincible in the world, just enough to restrain those Hu Lu iron cavalry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info said that the King of Qin was bent on the Northern Expedition, and Weichen suggested that His Majesty adopt the advice of the King of Qin, and let him lead the soldiers of the Qin Army to the Northern Expedition, recover the Central Plains for our emperor, and let my Great Jin Dynasty return to the old capital of the two capitals! ”
Taiwei Huanwen's words are extremely high-sounding, completely starting from the overall situation, not thinking about personal honor and disgrace, and a good faction of elders who are virtuous and do not avoid revenge! Jin Mu Emperor Sima Dan, although he looks mediocre and incompetent, but he is not stupid, seeing Taiwei Huan Wen like this, Sima Dan also lowered his head and thought, muttering undecided!
At this moment, I heard a shout from the inner supervisor outside the hall: "The Queen Mother has arrived!" ”
Emperor Sima Dan of Jin Mu and Taiwei Huan Wen, as well as Sima Yu, King of Huiji, as well as Qin Feng and other courtiers, hurriedly left the palace after hearing this, and welcomed the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic into the main hall!
The Empress Dowager Chongde has approached the palace, and she sits on the dragon throne that only the emperor can sit on, and Sima Dan, the Emperor of Jin Mu, was held in her arms by the Empress Dowager Chongde, like a little baby, with endless love and mercy!
In this situation, Taiwei Huan Wen, who was standing under the jade steps, and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and a group of courtiers seemed to be accustomed to it, and they didn't show the slightest surprise at all!
And Qin Feng saw his eldest brother of righteousness, Rugao, a talented man, who risked the frontier, and was held in his arms by the Empress Dowager Chongde like a baby, smiled bitterly, and didn't say anything!
Qin Feng's wry smile, others may not think much about it, but when he was seen by Emperor Sima Dan of Jin Mu, his extremely rare face turned red, as if he was embarrassed, he broke away from the arms of the Queen Mother, and sat on the dragon throne with the Queen Mother Chongde!
Seeing Sima Dan break free of his embrace, the Empress Dowager Chongde was quite surprised, glanced at Sima Dan beside her, and looked at Qin Feng who was standing at the foot of the jade steps with great meaning. Empress Dowager Chongde smiled slightly, thinking to herself that I'm an idiot, since I married Qin Feng, I seem to have made great progress, and now I have begun to have a little temperament!
After listening to the courtiers' reports, the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic looked at Qin Feng under the jade steps and said, "King Qin, are you really willing to lead the soldiers of the Qin army to defeat the invading enemy and ensure that my Great Jin Dynasty will be forever?" ”
"Empress Dowager Qi, raising troops for the Northern Expedition and recovering Shenzhou has been Weichen's long-cherished wish for many years! The alien Hulu entrenched in the north not only poisoned my Chinese sons and daughters, but also occupied Xianyang, the former capital of our Qin people, and at this time they came on a large scale. Whether it is as the commander of the Qin people or as a courtier of His Majesty, in public and private, Weichen is duty-bound! ”
As soon as Qin Feng's words fell, the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic sighed: "King Qin, what you have done for the mourning family and Your Majesty, the mourning family and Your Majesty will not forget!" What you have done for my Great Jin Dynasty, the soldiers and people of the Jin Dynasty, will not forget it either! ”
Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager Chongde ordered: "King Qin, the mourning family allows you to raise troops to the Northern Expedition to defeat the invading enemy!" All the civil and military officials of our court, as well as soldiers and soldiers from all over the country, you can choose! ”
As soon as the Empress Dowager Chongde said this, Taiwei Huan Wen frowned when she heard this, thinking that the Empress Dowager was going to take the opportunity of Qin Feng's Northern Expedition to weaken her own strength! The civil and military officials of the government and the opposition are secondary, most of the soldiers and horses in these places are under the jurisdiction of the Taiwei Mansion, and now the Queen Mother has let Qin Feng choose at will, which makes it clear that she wants to slowly empty herself!
It's just that the Queen Mother took advantage of the Northern Expedition, and no matter how reluctant she is, it's hard to speak out against it! Taiwei Huan Wen thought to himself, he was vain in claiming to be scheming, and he actually gave the Empress Dowager Chongde a chance to take advantage of this matter, it seems that this woman was still too contemptuous before!
Knowing this, he shouldn't have approved of Qin Feng's Northern Expedition, if he had just fought and put the burden of this Northern Expedition on his shoulders, although he couldn't weaken the strength of the Qin army for a while, he could at least ensure that his strength would not be damaged!
Just when Taiwei Huan Wen was depressed and thinking about how to oppose it, so as not to cause violent criticism from the government and the opposition, he only heard Qin Feng say loudly: "Queen Mother, the matter of driving out Hu Lu and raising troops for the Northern Expedition, my Qin army officers and soldiers can bear it with all their might!" As for the civil and military officials of the court, as well as the soldiers and soldiers from all over the country, let them perform their duties and protect the territory and the people! ”
As soon as Qin Feng's words came out, Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and other old ministers showed surprised looks, they all couldn't understand, since ancient times, the two armies have been fighting, isn't the more soldiers and horses? Why did Qin Feng refuse?
And Taiwei Huan Wen heard Qin Feng's words, he was overjoyed and a little puzzled, he thought to himself, didn't this Qin Feng understand that the Queen Mother's move was to weaken his own strength? If he didn't understand the deep meaning of the Queen Mother's move, Huan Wen wouldn't believe it! But why did Qin Feng refuse? Could it be that his eyes are above the top, except for the soldiers and horses of the Qin army, the other soldiers and horses are like mustard in his eyes, they are all useless things?
When the Empress Dowager Chongde heard Qin Feng's words, she was also a little unhappy in her heart, and she wanted to take the opportunity to weaken the strength of the Taiwei Mansion, such a good opportunity, you actually refused to mourn the family? What's going on in your mind? Which end of your Qin Feng is from?
Seeing that Qin Feng refused the Queen Mother's kindness, there was a look of worry in his eyes, and then he smiled slightly, thinking that since the second brother refused, then there must be a reason for him! If you talk about filling in the words, Qin Feng is not his opponent, but if you talk about arranging troops and leading the army to fight, ten of them are not as good as one Qin Feng! Even so, under Sima Dan's smile, there was still a trace of worry, worried that Qin Feng was too big, and this Northern Expedition would suffer!
In the entire hall, everyone was puzzled why Qin Feng refused the Queen Mother's kindness, but their worries were all due to political struggles, and no one was really worried about Qin Feng's safety! The only person who was really worried about Qin Feng's safety was the Jin Mu Emperor Sima Dan who was sitting on the dragon throne, that is, Qin Feng's righteous eldest brother, who ventured to open up the territory!
The Queen Mother wanted to take advantage of the Northern Expedition of the Qin Army to weaken the authority of the Taiwei Mansion and further control the Taiwei Huan Wen, which Qin Feng knew very well! As a courtier of the Great Jin Dynasty, it seems that Qin Feng should push the boat down the river, help the Empress Dowager Chongde, and jointly deal with Taiwei Huan Wen and his party!
But Qin Feng, who is the general of the Qin army, can only refuse the olive branch extended by the Queen Mother! There is no other reason, just because of these soldiers and horses, Taiwei Huan Wen is extremely strict, even if they follow them to go on the expedition, not only will it not help the Qin army, but it will hinder everything! If someone has any bad intentions, a soldier of the Qin army who is not careful, and fights bloodily in front, is in danger of being overturned!
In view of this, Qin Feng did not use all the civil and military officials and all the soldiers and horses of the Jin Dynasty! This Northern Expedition, in Qin Feng's view, was not so much to defend the Jin Dynasty against foreign humiliation, but to say that the Qin people drove out Hulu and returned to the old capital Xianyang! Since it is the matter of the Qin people going home, then why do they need others to help!
As for what Qin Feng thought, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic, is naturally not very clear. But since Qin Feng refused, the Empress Dowager Chongde had no choice but to nod and agree!
But let the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic give up this God-given opportunity to weaken the power of the Taiwei Mansion and control the Taiwei Huan Wen, how can she be willing? Therefore, although the Empress Dowager Chongde agreed to Qin Feng, she still crowned Qin Feng as the governor of the world's soldiers and horses, at least nominally, suppressed Taiwei Huan Wen!
In this way, the soldiers and horses in various parts of the Jin Dynasty had two top bosses, one was the Taiwei Huan Wen who was in charge of military strategy, and the other was newly canonized, and Qin Feng, the governor of the world's soldiers and horses.
Soldiers and horses from all over the country, after having two top bosses, on the one hand, they can use the power of Qin Feng to restrain Taiwei Huan Wen. On the one hand, it can make the generals from all over the country who are not Huan Wen's dead party for the time being have one more way out and one more channel to be loyal to the country!
Empress Dowager Chongde did this, although in the short term, it will cause many drawbacks such as poor military orders, but in the long run, the various measures against Taiwei Huan Wen are undoubtedly one of the wonderful moves!
As for Qin Feng, after defeating the invading enemy and establishing immortal feats, will he be a master of high merit and become the second Huan Wen. This point Chongde Empress Dowager Chu Garlic is also a little uncertain in her heart, but at this time, the current urgent task is Zhuhu to commit, and the thorn in her heart is Taiwei Huan Wen, as for Qin Feng after returning to the dynasty after victory, how to control it, this is a matter to consider in the future, thinking about these now, it will not help the government at all!
This point is understood by the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic in her heart, Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and some old ministers of the Three Dynasties, they have been in the officialdom for a long time, and they have seen a lot of officialdom, so they naturally understand! Therefore, after the Empress Dowager Chongde issued an order, these people came to congratulate Qin Feng one after another, congratulating him on his appointment as the governor of the world's soldiers and horses!
Taiwei Huan Wen saw that the Empress Dowager Chongde couldn't make a plan, and she made another plan, and this trick can be described as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, which is really ruthless! was put on the spot by the Empress Dowager Chongde, although Taiwei Huan Wen hated it so much in his heart, he could only smile with a smile on his face, and followed a group of courtiers to congratulate Qin Feng, congratulating him on his appointment as the governor of the world's soldiers and horses!
If there is only this means, then the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic will not be able to listen to the government for more than ten years, and in the face of endless strong ministers and fierce generals, she is still as stable as a rock to ensure that the court situation is not chaotic!
In the main hall, while all the ministers congratulated Qin Feng, the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic, and then issued a decree, ordering Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and Taiwei Huan Wen, to work together to handle all matters related to the logistics supply of grain, grass and ordnance for the Northern Expedition!
In this way, it seems that the Taiwei Mansion, which was originally in charge of military affairs, can meddle in local government affairs, but let Taiwei Huan Wen and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, handle it in coordination, then invisibly, it is mainly Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, and Taiwei Huan Wen is just an auxiliary!
What's more important is that the grain and grass collection in various states and counties, although Huan Wen has not been able to interfere. But for a long time, the supply of food, grass and ordnance for soldiers and soldiers from all over the country, the imperial court and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, also couldn't get involved!
However, with this decree of the Empress Dowager Chongde, the affairs that were originally in charge of the Taiwei Mansion are now handled by Taiwei Huan Wen and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji! In this way, the Empress Dowager Chongde's control over Huan Wen and the imperial court's checks and balances on the Taiwei Mansion are undoubtedly tighter!
Seeing that the Empress Dowager Chongde issued a decree, and each one was more fatal than the other, Taiwei Huan Wen obediently obeyed the order, and at the same time, he looked at the Empress Dowager Chongde Chu Garlic sitting on the dragon seat, and a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and there was a strong hatred!
After the Northern Expedition was agreed, the Empress Dowager Chongde summoned Qin Feng into the palace, which was naturally another encouragement and reward, and expressed her ardent hope for the soldiers of the Qin army! As for Sima Dan, the son of heaven at the time, because of the Empress Dowager Chongde's side, although he had a lot to say to Qin Feng, he didn't have the opportunity to get along alone!
Finally, when Qin Feng retreated, Emperor Sima Dan of Jin Mu thought for a while and said, "Big brother, you have to be careful when you lead the army to the Northern Expedition this time!" I'm waiting for you to come back in Jiankang! I'm waiting to talk with you at night and talk about wine! ”
Seeing Emperor Jin Mu Sima Dan calling him eldest brother, Qin Feng knew in his heart that with the current age of the two, he was several years older than Sima Dan, and if he called himself his second brother, I was afraid that it would cause unnecessary speculation and incidents!
Seeing Sima Dan's worried eyes, Qin Feng smiled: "Brother, don't worry, my Northern Expedition will definitely be able to drive out Hu Lu and clear the world, so that brother, you can rest assured and be a peaceful prince!" ”
The two of them said these words in front of the Empress Dowager Chongde, which was to find out the matter of the two worshipping! Although the Empress Dowager Chongde knew it early on, she was quite relieved to see the deep friendship between the two at this time, and she was also a little less suspicious of Qin Feng in the future!
The Empress Dowager Chongde thought in her heart, maybe after a hundred years, there will be Qin Feng in the court, and she will really be able to rest assured and be a carefree Taiping Emperor!
It's just that the three people present don't know that this meeting is the last time they will meet! And Qin Feng and Sima Dan didn't know that although the Qin army's Northern Expedition was a complete victory, Qin Feng wanted to protect Sima Dan, the Jin Mu Emperor, but he couldn't escape the fate of history, and he was destined not to be at ease and be a carefree son of peace!
