Zhang Nai's sudden appearance startled Zhengde, but since he had already arrived at Xuanfu, watched the fireworks display, and even met Xie Hong, Zhengde was already very satisfied, and he didn't care about revealing his identity at this time.

He has not been on the throne for a long time, but he is already quite familiar with Wenchen's routines, and these lines, if he wants to, can also be memorized backwards, so he didn't want to listen to it more, so he hurriedly interrupted Zhang Nai and said: "Okay, Zhang Aiqing is exempt, I know what you said, I must pay attention to it next time." ”

Zhang Nai got up and waited for thanksgiving, and when he heard Zhengde's last words, he almost bit his tongue, what do you mean to pay attention next time? Do you want to have a next time for this kind of thing? The crown prince ascended the throne and became the emperor, but he is still so stubborn, which is really worrying.

"Your Majesty, now there are Tartars rampant under the city, Your Majesty is in the land of ten thousand gold, you must not stay in such a dangerous place, the matter of retreating from the enemy can be handed over to Weichen and Zhang Zongbing, please Your Majesty return to the palace immediately, and after the ministers retreat from the enemy, it is only right to return to Beijing as soon as possible." You must know: Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and if you are not in Beijing, the world will be uneasy. ”

Xie Hong found that Zhang Nai seemed to be a little similar to Ma Ang, they were both talkative, but what he said was quoted from the scriptures, and it was righteous and sage-based, very methodical, much stronger than Ma Ang's wild way.

"There is no hurry to return to Beijing, but the enemy situation outside is more urgent." Zhengde waved his hand impatiently, turned his head to Zhang Jun and said: "What Xie Hong said just now makes sense, the Tartars should not have an ambush in the east of Xuanfu, Zhang Jun, you quickly lead the troops out of the city and annihilate the Tartars outside in one fell swoop." ”

"Your Majesty, by all means." Zhang Nai was shocked when he heard this, and shouted: "The minister has heard that the Tartars are cunning, what if it is a plan to lure the enemy and lure out the soldiers and horses in the city, and then take the city?" Since Your Majesty is in the city, the soldiers and horses of the Xuanfu should focus on defending the city, and they must not go out lightly. ”

Zhengde was stunned, "Zhang Aiqing, it's not as serious as you said." He pointed to the outside of the city and said: "There are more than 1,000 people outside, doesn't the Xuanfu have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, can't they still fight?" By this time, the formation of the Tartars outside had been scattered, and there were even sporadic men marching eastward.

Zhang Nai didn't look outside the city, he fell to the ground and cried, and the old tears were rampant: "The old minister is on behalf of the heavenly governor, but he can't serve the king, so that His Majesty doesn't know his own respect, and the white dragon fish suit, he went to the border town lightly and fell into such a dangerous situation; He can't shepherd the people, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and his heart is to the way of the saints, and the old minister is ashamed......"

If you want to say that the most depressed person in Xuanfu City now, it must be Zhang Nai. Yesterday, he was forced by Zhengde to agree to many conditions to appease the people, and even took down the envoy. Although this matter was forced by the situation, no one would understand it when it was spread, and he was bound to become a laughing stock of Shilin.

The scholars and doctors were proud to be able to advise the king, and even if Zhang Naiken lowered his face to explain the reason, no one would listen. The emperor's will has not gone through the cabinet, it can be returned, not to mention that it was not the emperor's official decree at that time, and no one can understand Zhang Nai's distress.

Zhang Nai was also born in the imperial history, and he was also known for his outspokenness, but he didn't expect that his reputation would be ruined in this Xuanfu City, how could he not be depressed? Who is to blame for this? That's Xie Hong!

If he hadn't made some strange silver tricks to publicize it, His Majesty would not have come to Xuanfu with the intention of running to Xuanfu; If he hadn't incited the people, His Majesty wouldn't have run under the bell tower and shouted; If he hadn't led the way, how could His Majesty have come to such a dangerous place as the city wall?

Thinking of this, the old man became more and more excited, beat his chest and said: "Thousands of mistakes are the fault of the old minister, the old minister is not effective in governing the people, resulting in the rampant villains in Xuanfu, Sven sweeping the ground, and because of personal friendship to be laissez-faire, causing His Majesty to be confused by the annihilation of the people, to put himself in danger, the old minister to ask Your Majesty, for the sake of the common people, please quickly take the annihilation of Xie Hong to the correct law, in order to set an example." ”

Xie Hong was stunned, he was obviously talking about the enemy, why did the topic suddenly turn to his brother? Could it be that Old Man Zhang is also like Zhengde, who likes to teleport when he speaks?

Zhang Nai's attitude towards himself, Xie Hong was not surprised, when Hou Defang opened, Zeng Jian had already told him once. Last night's incident, Xie Hong still had doubts at the time, but now he fully understands that if Zhengde is not here, I am afraid that Zhang Naiji will still do all the way with Shen Xun, and he is not a friend or foe.

However, he suddenly said this at such an urgent time, it was really a bit insignificant, right? The Tartars outside the city seemed to have confirmed that Xuanfu City would not send troops, and the whole team began to march eastward.

Zhengde naturally didn't take Zhang Nai's words to heart, the people around him, except for Hongzhi and Empress Dowager Zhang, the rest included Liu Jin, Gu Dayong, and Qian Ning, all of them were annihilated in the mouths of the courtiers, and the better the relationship with him, the more evil it was, and he had long been used to it.

He and Xie Hong only met for the first time, but the two were extremely close to each other, Xie Hong was scolded as a annihilator, which was also the proper meaning, Zhengde waved his hand impatiently, and said: "Zhang Qingjia, I know what you said, but now the most important thing is ......."

Before he finished his sentence, Zhang Nai got up violently, his hair was stretched, and he said sadly: "Your Majesty refuses to accept the advice of the old minister, what is the point of the old minister's life?" I hope that after the death of the old minister, His Majesty will be able to understand the hard work of the old minister, and wake up, and the old minister will also be comforted under the nine springs. With that, he rushed out of the city walls, apparently trying to jump down.

Of course, there were all sergeants on the side of the city wall, and the old man was naturally stopped, but this posture was really scary, and Zhu Houzhao was a little dizzy.

In the six months after Zhengde ascended the throne, the relationship with Wenchen was still very good, and he was rewarded if he had nothing to do. Therefore, he really hasn't experienced such a battle, and he doesn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he just gently persuades him.

"Then Your Majesty has promised the old minister to play?" Zhang Nai was still struggling, but after listening to Zhengde's persuasion, he turned his head and asked.

"This ......" Zhengde will definitely not agree, it is so easy to find a playmate who is so deed, how can he give up because of an old man. However, he saw that Zhang Nai was about to jump again, even if he knew that he couldn't jump, it would be a headache.

Xie Hong is very angry at this time, this old man is also a governor of one party and a second-class official, and he actually played this trick of crying, making trouble and hanging himself. If you want to die, you don't have to come to the city wall, wouldn't it be better to find a place where no one is hanging the southeast branch? It's obviously pretending.

Seeing Zhengde's face full of embarrassment, Xie Hong decided that he couldn't bear it, and after tossing for a while, I am afraid that the Tartar outside would not even be visible.

"Lord Zhang, you keep saying that Li Min is alive, but the Tartars outside have already begun to move, seeing that Li Min is about to suffer, you don't think about the enemy, but you are crying and making trouble here, is this your way of being a saint?"

"Bold, Xie Hong, you are a little child, how dare you talk about the sage knowing?" Facing Xie Hong, Zhang Nai's face quickly changed, and he shouted coldly:

"But all things in the world, there are no minor and serious illnesses, and now it is said that Your Majesty's golden body is here, and it should be to ensure the integrity of Xuanfu City. Not only does the official think like this, but also the thousands of people in Xuanfu, are you like this? It must be known that under the rule of this official, even if it is promoted to millet, it also has the heart of retribution. ”

This old horseman represented the people outside the city? Xie Hong laughed angrily and sneered: "In this case, Lord Zhang is the governor, why don't you go out of the city to serve the court with the people?" ”

"This official has the heavy responsibility of keeping one party safe, and he has to protect His Majesty, so he can't go out lightly." Zhang Nai's arrogance was straightforward, and he was not moved by Xie Hong's ridicule at all, "But Xie Qianhu, since you say so, you must also have the heart of retribution, as a military attaché, why don't you go out of the city to fight with the Tartars, and let Your Majesty and this official see Xie Qianhu's bravery?" ”

This old man is really shameless, Xie Hong sneered: "Lord Zhang really looks down on Xie Mou, let Xie Mou fight against a thousand?" It's a pity that Xie doesn't have such a thick face as Lord Zhang, I'm afraid he can't resist so many Tartars. ”

"How could this official mean that?" Zhang Nai pretended to be stunned and said: "Since Xie Qianhu insists on going to war, the official thinks that his courage is commendable, so he agreed, as for whether Xie Qianhu brings his subordinates, it is Xie Qianhu's own business, what does it have to do with the official?" ”

Xie Hong also understood that the old man was in a hurry to save people, so he forced himself into a corner in a few words. When it comes to sending troops, you have to find your own way, otherwise you have to keep quiet, and your image in Zhengde's mind will naturally be reduced. Xie Hong sighed slightly, he is worthy of being born in the imperial history, and the word is really powerful, but there is no way for my brother.

"Commander Jiang, Governor Zhang has already agreed to go to war, are you willing to lead your troops to go with Xie?" Xie Hong turned to the group of generals downstairs in the city and asked loudly.

"Somewhere in my life."

The generals under the city tower could only see the commotion on the city tower, but they didn't know what was happening. Seeing that the Tartars were rampant outside, Jiang Bin couldn't hold back for a long time. It's just that he usually said that he could come nonsense, but he didn't dare in wartime, otherwise General Zhang would have looked at him unhappily and killed him through military law, and there was nowhere to cry out for injustice. At this time, Xie Hong suddenly ordered the general, and Jiang Bin did not hesitate and gladly agreed.

Zhang Nai thought that Xie Hong would not back down, and then he could take advantage of the situation to suppress the other party with words, but he didn't expect Xie Hong to really dare to fight, and he really found someone who was willing to go with him. He was stunned for a moment, and then sneered.

A commander of only a thousand soldiers and horses, and the Tartars outside the city also have more than a thousand cavalry. Since the surname Xie is looking for death, the official just pushed the boat down the river and went to this scourge, Zhang Naifu said: "Since this is the case, General Zhang, then open the city and let Xie Qianhu and others go to war." ”

Zhang Jun's mind was a little complicated at this time, knowing Zhengde's identity, he was shocked and more thinking about his own affairs. You know, I just scolded the emperor, although Your Majesty doesn't mention it now, but what if you look for trouble in the future? Besides, last year, he fell for the Tartars' trick to lure the enemy, and the fiasco he incurred, His Majesty remembers it very clearly!

When Zhengde and Zhang Nai argued, he was even more worried, he didn't dare to offend either of these two people.

Disobeyed the emperor, Wenchen did what was called Fenggu, and the military general did it to resist the order, and what happened just now, he naturally didn't dare to offend Zhengde; But the governor is his immediate boss, which must not be offended, otherwise it is not unusual for the governor to impeach a general soldier and then dismiss him from office.

Zhang Jun couldn't wait to jump off the city, but fortunately, the two big men didn't notice him, but Xie Hong attracted Governor Zhang's attention, and Zhang Zongbing breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Bin will help Xie Hong, Zhang Jun is not surprised, when it is said that the matter of asking for military salaries is quite strange, he now understands a little. It's just that now, not only did he not plan to turn over old accounts, but he was thinking about whether to help Xie Hong and sell his favor to the other party.

Zhang Jun is a smart person, he has never had a major conflict with Xie Hong, but today, after seeing Xie Hong's endless skills and backers, Zhang Jun is even more glad of his caution. Now, seeing that Xie Hong has soared to the sky, where would he think of looking for trouble?

Therefore, he did not remind Zhang Nai, Jiang Bin's department, and also took the opportunity to say: "Commander Jiang, the Tartars have gone a little far, so in order not to catch up with the enemy, you should bring more war horses from this general." ”

Jiang Bin was overjoyed when he heard this, and even Xie Hong was surprised, he knew that although Jiang Bin's troops were cavalry, there were not enough horses. This is also normal, military salaries have been in arrears for a long time, and people can't eat enough, so how can they have money to raise horses? Zhang Zongbing suddenly sent the horse, how can this combat power increase by one and a half percent?

Zhang Nai, who was a civilian official, did not understand the military, and did not find the strangeness in it, but felt that what Zhang Jun said made sense, if Xie Hong took a group of infantry out of the city, and then delayed for a while, and waited for the Tartars to go away, his calculation of killing people with a knife would be in vain. Therefore, he bowed his head slightly, and he did not object.
