Chapter 623: Death (I)

In fact, the right to mobilize troops in the entire Beijing Division is still in the hands of the Ministry of War and the Cabinet, and Jiajing also knows that even if he wants to send troops to save people, it is impossible for him to bypass the Cabinet and act. However, after several cabinet ministers arrived, even Yuan Zonggao vetoed Jiajing's proposal.

The opinions of several ministers were highly unified, and even the emperor could not forcibly order him to go out of the city to fight. Yuan Zonggao, as an old minister of An Lu, can be regarded as the most able to speak among everyone. After several ministers returned to the duty room, he did not leave, but started a family affair with Jiajing.

"Long live, what Houzhai Gong said, no war, no peace talks, the words are still in our ears, we can't mess up because of one person."

He is used to living in Huguang, and the climate here in Beijing is not suitable for him, and since he entered Beijing, Yuan Zonggao's health has never been very good. Now that he has entered the cabinet, he has more errands, and his illness has become heavier and heavier. If he didn't really want to make a career, he would have cultivated at home now.

While coughing, he comforted the young Son of Heaven, "Yang Tishuai and I fought side by side when guarding the palace, although we are both literate and martial, but the relationship is really close. He is in danger, and the old man is also anxious, and if it is possible, the old man is willing to do everything in his power to save him. However, the current situation does not allow us to act in this way. You are the Venerable of Ten Thousand Times, and you are responsible for the safety of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and you cannot be emotional. Our personal emotions will eventually give way to family and national affairs. ”

With a violent cough, Yuan Zonggao's body curled up violently, but he still tenaciously expounded his opinion.

"Yang Ge, Liang Ge and the others may have some opinions about Chengzu, but they are all ministers who know the importance of the matter, and they will not affect their decisions because of this prejudice. In fact, our troops do not have the ability to fight the Mongols outside the city. Even if you use a lot of money to labor the army and let the army go out to fight, there is no certainty of victory. After killing Jiang Bin and the rest of the party, now we have no suitable general to lead the whole army. It is impossible to win the war without soldiers. ”

"At present, we are relying on these Beijing camps to scare the Mongols, once this faΓ§ade cannot be supported, then not to mention saving people, it will be very problematic to even maintain the defense of the Beijing Division. Besides, this inspection of the Beijing camp has harmed many people, and they have resentment in their hearts. When employing people, it is uncertain whether they are really willing to die for His Majesty. So much time has passed since last night, maybe ...... In short, what should have happened has happened, if you are lucky enough, hide in the mountains or in the people's house, and wait until the arrival of King Qin's army, you can turn the crisis into safety. Therefore, for the sake of an illusory goal, to take the risk of fighting, I think that even Yang Yizheng, who is here today, will resolutely oppose His Majesty's sending troops. ”

Jiajing nodded, "Old Yuan, you are my teacher, and I have always believed the truth you say." Since you support Yang Ge's arrangement, it must be reasonable, but ......"

"Your mood is also very clear. At that time, my youngest son was infected with smallpox, and he was willing to scatter all his wealth and save his young son's life. But in the end, there was still no way to return to heaven, and when Lang Zhong told me that the medicine stone was ineffective, the mood of old decay was the same as that of long live. Human power is exhausted from time to time, everyone has things that they can't do, and all we can do is to take into account the overall situation. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, I won't be emotional and delay the overall situation. Teacher, go and rest, your body ......."

Yuan Zonggao smiled with relief, "The minister's body is nothing, this age, even if he sees the old thousand years old under the nine springs, the minister has no regrets." Long live being able to think about it, the minister's wish will be fulfilled. When you arranged the old minister to the cabinet, you wanted the old minister to be a nail, and this attentive minister understood it very well. Lao Yu also thought that he was going to compete with Yang Tinghe and others. It wasn't until after entering the cabinet that the old man realized that in fact, Yang Ting and them were very outstanding ministers, and it was a blessing to live and a blessing to have such a virtuous minister to assist. The old people are old, and their bodies are useless, and they are the ones who can really accompany Banzai to go on. As for the ancestors...... Everything has a fate, and we can't do anything. ”

Jiajing personally sent Yuan Zonggao out of the Chengtian Palace, and the appearance of a faction of monarchs and ministers getting along with each other until this moment, including Huang Jin and others, thought that they must have persuaded the emperor. It wasn't until Jiajing returned to the main hall that he seemed to have put down the matter, and instead concentrated on dealing with a few twists and turns on how to requisition rice and grain to appease the people. It wasn't until more than half an hour later that he inadvertently called Zhang Zuo into the main hall and gave some orders.

At the entrance of the Yang Mansion in the Dengshikou, several women of the Yang family were all crying, their eyes were red, and Ruxian bit her lower lip tightly, issuing one order after another. The news of Yang Chengzu's fall outside the city, the inner house has already gotten the news, but under Ruxian's gag order, no one dares to tell the Liu family the news, and finally there is no big turmoil.

As time passed, the hearts of the women in the family were raised to the throat. Zhao Qiniang and several other women who knew martial arts had already packed up neatly, and Hao Qingqing put the big iron bow behind his back, inspecting his female soldiers and the guards sent from Qinglong Mountain.

"Ruxian, our people are almost ready, you take care of the old lady at home, and we will go and find Xianggong back."

"Although I am not familiar with the relationship between the Cao Gang, I can still contact some people, and now the people everywhere have fled into the city, as long as they are willing to pay, they can also raise some young people who are not dying. The real problem is weapons and horses, but this, this needs to go to the Beijing camp and buy it at a large price. A few days ago, Fujun was very familiar with those gentlemen, and they might have a way. ”

Iron Coral didn't say a word, just hugged the clown tightly in his arms, and the clown was now able to call his mother, and while calling his mother, he scratched his mother's hair with his little hands. Iron Coral's eyes were full of tears, he looked at his daughter, and finally put her into Miao's arms, "Miao...... Miao Niang, if I can't come back, you take good care of the big ugly for me. ”

Several of the Yang family's martial arts relatives, even Si Qin and Si Qi, the two women who confiscated the house, were ready to go on the expedition. Even though they knew that searching for their husbands with hundreds of guards was basically the same as sending them to death, these women were all scrambling, and none of them wanted to stay.

Ruxian glanced at them a few times, nodded and said, "To be honest, I've always wanted to clean you all up, so that I can monopolize my ancestor brother." But for today's matter, if you have the life to come back, maybe the old lady will let you have a little bit in the future. Wait, I'll go with you. ”

Zhao Miniang crossed her waist with her hands on her waist, and her face was full of disdain, "Let's go together?" Do you know kung fu? With a sword and a bow, you can catch whoever of them has three moves and two styles, and you can walk together. ”

Ruxian shook the paper bag in his hand with disdain, "I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of Tartar soldiers outside, will it be kung fu and have an egg?" Isn't it just going to die, as if any woman wouldn't, the old lady is with a crane top red, come and get it if you want. Our man is dead, let's go and accompany him, it's as simple as that, don't talk so much useless! ”

She also called Si Qin and Si Qi, and personally arranged the woman's bun for the two of them, although the two were not accepted into the house, but after the bun was coiled, it could be regarded as being accepted by Yang Chengzu, which was regarded as the inner family of the Yang family. Hongshao blushed and said, "Madam, I also want a ......."

Mei'e didn't know what was going on, she only knew that these sisters were going to find her brother-in-law, jumping over, shaking the hem of her skirt like a fairy, "I want it too, okay with me?" ”

"What are you fighting for? Is it compared to the head of the plate? In terms of this craft, it is probably better for the people in my house, so why don't I let my people do it? Appearing outside the door of the inner courtyard was Princess Zhu Xiuchang, who had changed into a man's costume, and her personal guard Luo Po, and in the back, a large number of guards from the princess's mansion.
