"It's a pity to be a minister, and I don't know the general situation." Wei Chang, who was beside Lai Xing'er, couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Liu Yi smiled slightly, and arched his hand at the emperor sitting in the center: "What the minister said is the way of the monarch and the minister, and Lord Lin is not ignorant of the policy of governing the country, but he really does not want to. The study of Confucius and Mencius is the same way, and I hope that Your Majesty will observe it. ”

The emperor was obviously angry, and said to Lin Shu angrily: "How can I not know what you said? I summoned you here to discuss military affairs at the front, and to discuss a good strategy to counter the rebellion, but at this time, you advised me to advocate frugality and luxury, and open a new dynasty, so that the rebels will take the initiative to retreat? When I was in the East Palace, I felt that you had a pedantic atmosphere, and it is rare that you have not changed it so far, but don't mistake my business. Wait for the time being, drop back, hand over the guilty fold, and wait for it to be issued. ”

Jing Yuncong knew that the emperor was angry with Lin Shu because of the loss of the river, he didn't say a word since he came here, but now seeing that the emperor wanted to deal with Lin Shu heavily, he hurriedly got up and stopped: "Your Majesty is angry, Lord Lin is a scholar, although the answer is not what he asked, please read his sincere heart, and punish him carefully." ”

"He's going to quit the dine-in, so I'm just asking him to let him out of the phase, can't he?" The emperor was so angry that he even refuted Jing Yuncong's words.

Seeing that the emperor was about to depose him, Lin Shuduan was not afraid, but said unhurriedly: "The loss of the river is not because the rebels are unstoppable, but because of the poor coordination of the officers and troops of all walks of life and the lack of unified command. If the emperor wants to recover Hezhong, he only needs any general to give him the right to command the three armies. ”

"People say that Lin Shu is as bold as a fight, and when I see it today, I believe it!" Wei Chang let out another light sigh.

When the emperor heard Lin Shu's words, the color on his face softened unexpectedly, he glanced at Jing Yuncong from the corner of his eye, and asked Lin Shu: "Jing Gong said that you are a scholar, and I may not be pure in my opinion." Let's talk about it, who can be the general in the DPRK and China, and lead the army to recover the river? ”

Jing Yuncong didn't wait for Lin Shu to answer, and replied with a fist: "The old minister is willing to go." ”

"Jing Gong is expected by everyone, and he does not wait for his ministers. However, according to the minister, a battle in the river does not need Lao Jinggong to go out in person. Lin Shu still said unhurriedly.

Everyone understands the meaning of the emperor's urgent summoning of Jing Yuncong into the palace, but he didn't expect Lin Shu to say this. This time, even Liu Yi set his eyes on him in surprise.

The emperor was interested, leaned forward, clasped his hands, and listened intently to Lin Shu's words.

"The minister dared to ask His Majesty to issue an edict, so that the Guan army allowed Yu Chengen to lead the Shenhe army to move to Huazhou first, and appointed Fu Yi, the deputy envoy of Hebei Province, as the general manager of the marching army of all roads, and gave him the right to specialize, and ordered him to lead the army to recover the river." Lin Shu's words were very firm, as if he had already made a draft.

"Oh, I see. Sure enough, he was a son of heaven and a courtier. Wei Chang sighed for the third time.

Lai Xing'er finally couldn't help but ask, "Master Wei, what's going on?" ”

Wei Chang smiled mysteriously, lowered his voice and said, "The emperor and Lin Shu are acting, don't talk, and then look down." ”

"What does Gong Jing think?" After listening to Lin Shu's words, the emperor did not say anything, and asked Jingyun Congdao instead.

Jing Yuncong also seemed to realize something at this time, and was thinking about how to reply to the emperor's question, when he heard a commotion outside the hall, and a forbidden army captain ran into the hall after Li Jinzhong.

"The emperor is really here, I thought that the group of monkey cubs in the Lin De Hall lied to me." Li Jinzhong walked towards the emperor and shouted loudly, "Gong Jing and Brother Liu are also there, it seems that the news of the loss of the river is true." ”

Wei Changhuo stood up and shouted at the captain: "Who dares to trespass on Yanying? Don't take it for me yet. ”

The lieutenant pointed at Li Jinzhong, and his tongue was so anxious that he fought: "He, he ......"

"Wei Chang can't be rude, I thought that the Duke of Jin had another envoy with him, and he didn't invite him, but now that the Duke of Jin is here, let's sit aside and discuss it together." The emperor motioned for the lieutenant to step back and said to Li Jinzhong with a smile.

"Jin Guogong?" Wei Chang stared at Lai Xing'er with wide eyes, and when he saw Lai Xing'er nodding at him with a smile, he sat down like a deflated ball, and sighed in a low voice, "True power minister." ”

Li Jinzhong didn't sit down immediately, he stood beside Lin Shu, and arched his hand towards the emperor and said: "The old minister led a group of new palace people to meet the two noble concubines in the Linde Hall today, and listened to the private discussions of the servants on duty in the Linde Palace, saying that Hezhong fell into the hands of the rebels yesterday. As the secretary of the military department, the old minister is in a hurry, and he is in a hurry to see the emperor to discuss countermeasures, and if he is reckless, please forgive your majesty. ”

The emperor laughed and said, "It's okay, it's okay. The Duke of Jin is anxious and righteous and can be a model for the ministers, how can I blame him? Only then did Lin Shu recommend Fu Yi as a general and lead the army to recover the river, I don't know if the Duke of Jin thought it was appropriate? ”

Li Jinzhong glanced down at Lin Shu, then raised his head to look at Liu Yi and Jing Yuncong, and said with a smile: "The old minister came non-stop, his tongue was very dry, and he wanted to ask the emperor for a glass of water to drink, so it was not too late to slow down." Jing and Liu, two great experts, are here, and the old minister also wants to hear their opinions first. ”

Jing Yuncong couldn't get used to seeing him so casual and presumptuous in front of the emperor, so he didn't wait for the emperor to ask again, so he clenched his fists and said: "The minister originally wanted to wear armor and be sharp and share the emperor's worries." However, General Fu Yi recommended by Lord Lin is actually the best of the leading generals from all walks of life, and the minister has no objection to General Fu Yi as a general, and is willing to personally lead an army to be stationed in Tongzhou as a backup. ”

Liu Yi was far away from the court a few years ago, and he felt very unfamiliar with the name Fu Yi, and he really couldn't remember who he was, but when he heard Jing Yuncong say this, he thought that he must be a general, so he didn't raise any objections, and just sat aside and watched Lin Shu think about his thoughts alone.

"Fu Yi is the emperor's guard when he is in the East Palace, and his loyalty has nothing to say," Li Jinzhong also expected that Jing Yuncong would personally take command of the expedition, and when he heard that he actually supported Ren Fu Yi as a general, he couldn't help but have the heart to fight for merit, and said, "But the marching formation is not child's play, if the emperor worships Jing Gong such a long-term battle-hardened and prestigious general, the old minister has nothing to say, if he wants to appoint a hairy boy who has never commanded the three armies as a general, the old minister is not talented, and he is willing to go together to supervise his army." ”

"The troublemaker is coming, this time the emperor is going to make it difficult." Wei Chang, who was sitting on the side of the hall, muttered again unwillingly.

The emperor really couldn't hold his breath: "The Duke of Jin and the Duke of Jing are both important ministers of the country, how can I work for the two of them to recover a projectile of land?" Jing Gong stationed in Tongzhou as a backup, in case of contingencies, it seems to be acceptable. It is very inappropriate for the Duke of Jin to serve as the supervisor of the army, not to mention that there is also an envoy to the army in front of Yu Chengen, that is, to raise and allocate food for the three armies, and it is also thanks to the contribution of the military department, and it is not appropriate for the Duke of Jin to leave me. ”
