How so?

Sitting on the dragon luan, when the luan drove towards the heart cultivation hall, Xianfeng asked himself over and over again in his heart.

At this time, the sky was gloomy, and his heart was also gloomy, he was afraid that he would become a dead king like Chongzhen, and he knew that he didn't have the courage to hang himself on the coal mountain like Chongzhen.

Now what?

In the confusion, Yi Su came to the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, although he was terrified in his heart, but he still maintained the emperor's dignity, sitting on the throne of the emperor with carved dragons and gild. The ministers of military aircraft have been waiting for a long time, waiting to be summoned.

In fact, at this time, all military planes are also in a cold sweat, reporting one bad news after another - the Fengtai camp has collapsed! It was not the partial division of the Cantonese bandits who fought Fengtai, but the main force of tens of thousands of people.

In other words, the capital is now in danger!

The ministers had already prepared for the emperor's seizure, but this time, in the face of such a serious situation, the emperor did not react!

In fact, it's not that Yi Su didn't react, but he didn't know what to do, after a few years of military tests, although he thought that he was handy in deploying troops, and the front guard was well arranged, but the emergency documents still flew like snowflakes. But in fact, he was already a little overwhelmed.

Every time there is an emergency, Yisu's heart will appear cowardly, shaken, and regretful, which is almost his born character. In the face of the urgent documents and the news of the arrival of Cantonese bandits in the city, all Yixi's mind was thinking about one person-Chongzhen, thinking that he was hanging alone in the coal mountain, and there was only one eunuch by his side.

It's useless to think about these things, and now he must think of ways to get through this difficulty, otherwise he will become Chongzhen, that is, in order not to be this Chongzhen, he will summon the Minister of Military Aircraft in the Palace of Cultivating Hearts, and let everyone think of a plan for him to retreat from the enemy.

Present at the discussion meeting were Mu Yin, the secretary of the military department, Kuang Yuan, the left attendant of the ministry, Du Han, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Jiao Youying, the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, Chen Fuen, the secretary of the ministry, Wenxiang, the left attendant of the household department, and Zhou Zupei, the secretary of the household department. In addition, there are also Prince Hui Mianyu, Prince Cha Zaiyuan, Prince Zheng Duanhua, Prince Alcohol Yiyun and others, naturally in early October to walk in the military aircraft department, since then breaking the Qing Dynasty prince is not allowed to interfere in government affairs of the ancestral system Prince Gong Yixun is naturally here.

As soon as he came back to his senses, Yi Su couldn't wait to say:

"The princes of all families love Qing, now that thieves are rampant, and the capital is in danger, I summoned you and others to come here to discuss the plan to retreat from the enemy and the strategy of defending the city, and ask the princes and ministers to give me advice, express their opinions, and speak freely."

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one wants to speak first, and there is really no good plan, if there is really a good plan, how can you wait until now to not come up with it? Yi Su wants them to come up with a strange plan, which is to catch the ducks on the shelves.

Seeing that everyone was just standing there stupidly, but no one spoke, Yi Su became annoyed at once, and slapped the royal case and reprimanded:

"As the saying goes, raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while, and you are all important ministers of the court and pillars of the country, how come when the enemy is at present, they all become dumb, if it is really a poor donkey, Jiang Lang is exhausted?"

As soon as Xianfeng said this, a few people couldn't sit still, knowing that they wouldn't be able to speak again.

Mu Yin, the head of the household who had just joined the military plane on duty a month ago, hurriedly spoke.

"The minister thinks that the current situation, the thief rebels with tens of thousands of soldiers to drive straight in, all the way to attack here, must have been tired and tired, although it seems that the soldiers are unstoppable, in fact it is already the end of the strong crossbow, now the emperor transferred the division of the king of Qin is on the road, just wait for the army of the king of Qin, the thief will be defeated, and I have hundreds of thousands of flag soldiers in the capital, and there are high walls and strong cities as a screen, and there are millions of stone of grain, enough to last for several months, in the opinion of the minister, the top priority is to take the soldiers of the eight banners of each battalion in the capital, to guard the capital, because of the slow, I don't know what the emperor thinks?"

Mu Yin's words made Yi Su feel very reasonable when he heard it, but he was afraid of being afraid, more precisely, he was afraid that he couldn't keep it, what if he couldn't keep the capital? But he didn't want to take the initiative to say this, he wanted the ministers to say this first, after all, there are some things that he can't say as the emperor, if the ministers say it first, then even if there is infamy in the future, it can be pushed on the ministers.

But no one among the ministers understood the emperor's thoughts, and Mu Yin's words did have his truth, this Qinwang's soldiers had not arrived, so they could only use the banner soldiers of the capital, and no matter how bad it was, it was not their own people. Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, everyone thought that the emperor was worried that the Eight Banners would not be useful, so Peng Yunzhang hurriedly said.

"Although it is a superior strategy to wait for the division of King Qin in various places, don't forget that there are still hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Beijing and Tianjin areas, and in the opinion of the ministers, you can first transfer the monk king into Beijing to consolidate the defense of the capital."

Without waiting for Peng Yunzhang to continue, someone immediately asked:

"Transferring the monk king to Beijing, what should I do in Tianjin? There is no monk king to block Lin and Li's two thieves, in case he joins forces with Zeng Thief, what will he do to resist at that time? ”

Peng Yunzhang immediately refuted.

"Isn't Shengbao still leading 20,000 elites? Let him arrive in Jinghai as soon as possible, and control the two thieves of Lin and Li, but now the most important thing is to protect the Jingshi! ”

Prince Yi Zaiyuan also said on the side.

"It is important to keep the Jingshi, keep the tablet of the ancestors, you must not lose the Jingshi, if you destroy the tablet of the ancestors at that time, otherwise, we will be sinners for the ages, and we will have no shame to face the ancestors when we die."

For a while, everyone in this heart cultivation hall suddenly argued for a long time, and finally they were basically inclined to defend the city.

Everyone knows that this city is to be defended, but the problem is how to defend, although this place of Beijing and Tianjin claims to have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but in fact, if those soldiers can come in handy, Xianfeng will not order the provinces to be kings of Qin, with these hundreds of thousands of soldiers alone, how can they defend the capital.

Just when everyone was arguing, Shao Can, as the Minister of Military Aircraft, put forward his own opinions. He first glanced at everyone, and then said:

"Since the minister, now the imperial court must make three preparations, first, actively prepare for the defense of all the passages to the capital, and strive to defeat the thief, at least it should also deal a heavy blow to its arrogant flame, so that the long-haired thief will have to pay the price of blood for every step forward; second, strengthen the defense of the capital, stick to the capital to wait for the division of the king of the world; Third, it is also necessary to consider that in case the battle cannot be won, it is necessary to think of a way to retreat and ensure that the emperor evacuates the capital safely. ”

As soon as Shao Can's words came out, no one raised any objections, everyone was silent, and Qi Liaozao, who was the foreman of the military aircraft, looked at the emperor's face and seemed to change slightly, and immediately understood that the reason why the emperor did not express his position before was this-the emperor can't be in danger!

This will make Qi Liaozao regret that he was not figuring out the emperor's heart painting exhibition, and as a result, Shao Can stole the limelight, but it was useless to regret it, and he had to quickly find a way to remedy it.

Seeing that no one objected or agreed, it showed that his strategy had been accepted by everyone, and Shao Can turned to the emperor again and said:

"The top priority is how to carry out these three preparations at the same time, for the war, in addition to the monk king, Sheng Bao, Ruilin, Hengqi and others, and then send Prince Gong Yixun, Prince Hui Mianyu, Prince Qia Zaiyuan and Mu Yin and others to lead troops to garrison the outskirts of the capital to be responsible for the protection of the city. For the emperor's evacuation of the capital is still secondary, just in case, the emperor can temporarily live in the Old Summer Palace, can enter or retreat, and it is very convenient to enter and exit the capital. ”

Seeing that someone mentioned his younger brother, Xianfeng turned his eyes to Yixun, who had been silent, and at this time, he was a little undecided, so he asked Yixun and said:

"Sixth, what do you think of this time?"

Although Yixun has always been Xianfeng's biggest opponent in the competition for the storage position, he also understands that his sixth brother's talent is far better than his own, and this is the reason why he ordered him to walk on the military plane and break the rule that the prince does not participate in politics, that is, he wanted to borrow the talent of the sixth brother to keep the world of the Qing Dynasty. The great enemy is now the time to employ people, and everything else should be put secondary.

As for Yixun, although the relationship between him and the emperor became increasingly distant because of the dispute over the throne, it is now the state that is in turmoil, and some small grievances between private individuals should no longer be remembered, not to mention that now the fourth child is already the emperor, and he knows the reason of the monarch and the minister, and he naturally guards the courtesy of the monarch and the minister.

"No objection!"

Yixun stood up and responded.

"The emperor is the respect of the Ninety-Five, the body of ten thousand gold, you must not be in danger, now the enemy is current, the ministers should stay in the capital, it is the time to employ people, why not let Shao Junji stay in the capital to assist the ministers to defend the city? Moreover, Shao Junji is also very proficient in handling military affairs, which is conducive to strengthening the defense of the Beijing Division. ”

Yi Xun doesn't know the temper of his fourth brother, as long as the Cantonese bandits over there are close to the capital, they are bound to flee, according to the fourth brother's mind, he is determined to go to the Rehe Summer Resort, where there is the emperor's palace. But no matter what, the emperor's escape is not a glorious thing, if someone talks about this matter in the future, it is he who threatens the emperor the most.

And this is probably the reason why Shao Can proposed to let himself stay in the capital - this capital always needs a prince to stay, if he guards the capital, it is the emperor who uses people properly, but if he can't keep the capital, he will naturally die in the capital at that time. Naturally, it is impossible to threaten the emperor's throne.

As for his life and death, who is almost there?

That's why Shao Can would suggest like this, he is really a good courtier of the emperor! The emperor's worries have come to this point!

But the question is that he is not a person who is bullied by mermaids, so he left Shao Can behind, not to mention anything else, if he dies, then everyone will die together!

Although he was grateful to Shao Can for saying everything he wanted to say and couldn't say, but hearing the sixth child's request, Xianfeng knew that he couldn't refuse, so he just nodded and agreed.

The details were discussed again, almost in accordance with the previously agreed approach. (To be continued.) )
