Chapter 419: Shocking news
readx;
Qin Xianglian no longer has a little hatred for Chen Yuan in her heart, she also occasionally walks on the street during her time in Bianjing, and from the mouths of those Bianjing people, she knows that her husband is a person who does great things. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xianggong is helping the emperor to govern the country, and helping the emperor solve those major matters ranging from the war between the two countries to the relief of disaster victims.
She even regretted a little, why did she bother him?
Why do you have to leave such a troublesome family matter to him to solve? He is a person who does great things, and he is just an ordinary peasant girl, if he has no appearance, if he has no ability, he can't help him with anything, why bother him?
As long as he remembered himself in his heart, Qin Xianglian felt very content.
If Chen Yuan said the last sentence: "The princess will not allow you to come in." ”
Then Qin Xianglian will turn around and leave, and will definitely not cause him any more trouble. It's just that Chen Yuan won't say such a thing, of course he knows Qin Xianglian's thoughts, but he can't let Qin Xianglian leave, if this woman is accepted by Zhao Yi, a stone in his heart will fall to the ground, and he believes that he has the ability to deal with these now.
Just walked to the bottom of the mountain, I saw Liu Yong sitting on the wheel of the carriage with sweat, as soon as he saw Chen Yuan coming down, Liu Yong ran over quickly: "Master Horse!" Why do you still have the leisure to play in the mountains and rivers now? ”
Chen Yuan let go of the arm that was holding Qin Xianglian's shoulder: "What's wrong?" ”
Liu Yongyi clapped his hands: "Something is wrong!" Something big is happening at the border! Li Yuanhao secretly attacked six cities in Western Xinjiang and slaughtered nearly 5,000 people of our Great Song Dynasty! ”
Chen Yuan's face immediately changed: "What's the matter?" Master Fan, didn't they go to beat Li Yuanhao? ”
Liu Yong shook his head: "Lord Fan is beating Li Yuanhao, but Li Yuanhao has come to our western frontier!" I don't know what's going on here, but now the whole court is exploding, and the emperor told you to go back, go back immediately! ”
Chen Yuan immediately jumped into the carriage: "Let's go, let's go back immediately, Han Qi, hurry up." After speaking, he looked at Qin Xianglian again: "Lady, go back by yourself." ”
Qin Xianglian nodded, and some pride suddenly rose in her heart, this is her own man, when the emperor has a problem, when the country is in danger, the emperor thinks of his own man, and he is willing to rush there immediately.
Qin Xianglian watched the carriage leave her sight, although she was left here by Chen Yuan, she didn't have the slightest complaint in her heart, she smiled.
Just as he was thinking about this happy thing, suddenly a carriage stopped in front of Qin Xianglian, and a kind face stretched out from the carriage: "Sister-in-law is going back to the city?" Won't you take a ride? ”
Qin Xianglian saw that it was the kind-hearted Prime Minister Wang who accidentally bumped into herself on the street.
The affairs of the Western Xinjiang have already made Renzong furious! Five thousand! Six cities! This number was enough to make him now determined to kill Fan Zhongyan.
When Chen Yuan rushed to the palace, he found that many ministers had already arrived. Pang Ji and Xia Zhu obviously seized this opportunity, brazenly advocating the so-called necessary peace talks, trying their best to persuade Renzong to make Renzong believe again that the only way to protect the Great Song Dynasty was to let the warriors put away their swords and let the tongue of their scholars persuade Li Yuanhao to retreat!
Fu Bi and Ouyang Xiu argued with reason, but now the ironclad facts are there, many officials who were clamoring to implement the new policy before chose to be silent at this time, and the voices of the two of them are obviously not as strong as Pang Ji and Xia Zhu.
"Long live, Li Yuanhao attacked my six towns in one day, and the defenders of the border defense line have been brought to the party by Lord Fan, if Li Yuanhao rode straight down, now I'm afraid Yanzhou has been broken!" What Xia Zhu said was what Renzong was most worried about, and with the worried look on his face, it really had a strong appeal.
Pang Ji continued: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that he must contact Li Yuanhao immediately, and only by letting him withdraw from the army can he keep the peace of the Great Song Frontier." ”
Renzong's chest rose and fell sharply, and after hearing this, he nodded.
Fu Bi hurriedly stood up: "Long live! Now we must not seek peace, such a peace, that is, we have signed another alliance under the city, Li Yuanhao will inevitably make excessive demands, I am afraid that it is the Liao State that will not fall behind! ”
Pang Ji angrily reprimanded Fu Bi: "Fu Bi! Do you want to put the people of Western Xinjiang on fire and water? ”
Ouyang Xiu stood up suddenly: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that although the Western Xinjiang has been attacked, the situation is unknown, and it is not appropriate to make a decision in such a hurry!" ”
Xia Zhu sneered: "The situation is unknown? Thousands of people were killed and said the situation is unknown? Ouyang Xiu, do you want Li Yuanhao to call Bianjing to show you? ”
Renzong shook his head slightly and waved his hand: "Don't say it!" I have made up my mind, Fu Bi, I have ordered you to be the envoy, go to the western Xinjiang immediately, and ...... with Li Yuanhao"
didn't finish speaking, only heard Chen Yuan outside: "Long live!" Li Yuanhao's defeat is imminent, this is his last dying struggle, and the minister guarantees that within a month, there will be good news in Western Xinjiang! ”
Renzong put away the rest of his words and looked at Chen Yuan, who walked straight up to the main hall. Pang Ji next to him scolded angrily: "Chen Shimei! You roar outside the temple like this, and do you have any courtesy? ”
Chen Yuan knelt down on one knee, ignored Pang Ji, and said to Renzong: "Long live, although the minister doesn't know what plan Master Fan has, but the minister is sure that Lord Fan will definitely be able to hit Li Yuanhao hard!" ”
Xia Zhu sneered: "Chen Shimei, you use your head as a guarantee, will your head pay for the Western Frontier of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”
Chen Yuan knelt on the main hall, and his upper body stood up straight: "It doesn't matter if you can't afford to lose, because I firmly believe that Master Fan will definitely win!" If you lose, the minister is willing to die! ”
Ouyang Xiu suddenly knelt down: "Long live, the minister will also die with Chen Shimei!" ”
Renzong glanced at Chen Yuan: "Chen Shimei, why do you say that?" Do you think I won't kill you? ”
What did Chen Yuan say? To be honest, he really wasn't sure. But his surname is like this, he has done so many things just to defeat Li Yuanhao! Now you are asking for and? Then Chen Yuan would not agree to die.
What's more, he believes in Di Qing, he believes in Liu Ping, and he believes in Fan Zhongyan! Chen Yuan firmly believes that no matter how sinister the form is, they will have a way to deal with it!
When Renzong asked him, Chen Yuan's head spun rapidly, he knew that the facts were already unfavorable to him, and if he wanted to convince Renzong, he had to use absolutely powerful reasoning to make Renzong doubt this fact!
The location of the city that was broken by Li Yuanhao was clearly presented in his mind like a map.
In a flash of inspiration, Chen Yuan suddenly thought of a very problematic doubt, and said at the moment: "Long live, please ask for the map of Western Xinjiang to solve the doubts in your chest." ”
Renzong nodded and asked the eunuch to bring up the map of the western frontier. This map is very large, two meters long and wide, and it is placed in the middle of the main hall, so that anyone can see it clearly.
Chen Yuan marked the six cities that were attacked one by one, so that those ministers could see more clearly, and also had a clearer idea for themselves.
"Long live, please look, the attacked cities are all concentrated in the west of the Dingbian Army's defense line, I don't know if you have seen it, if Li Yuanhao has really broken our defense line, then the attacked cities should be seven!"
When he said this, he tapped his finger on the position of returning to Yancheng: "Here, according to the route, this should be the first place to be attacked!" But my lords, which of you has any news of returning to Yancheng? ”
The court was suddenly silent, the intelligence agencies of the Song Dynasty were too bad, this is why Li Yuanhao was able to enter the border of the Song Dynasty for more than ten days without anyone knowing! It wasn't until Li Yuanhao went deep into the border and began to loot the cities of the Song Dynasty that the Great Song Dynasty came to its senses.
Similarly, it is also because the intelligence agencies of the Song Dynasty are rotten that Chen Yuan can talk about it here. If they knew the truth and knew that Li Yuanhao's army of more than 100,000 had been killed, I am afraid that Renzong would not give Chen Yuan a chance to speak, even if Chen Yuan really used his head to vouch, Renzong would not believe it.
Without knowing all the details, Chen Yuan's words left Pang Ji's Xia Zhu speechless, and Xia Zhu thought for a while: "Perhaps, the people who returned to Yancheng have been killed?" It's no surprise that we don't have any news. ”
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "Impossible!" Lord Taiwei has been in the western Xinjiang for many years, and I would like to ask Lord Taiwei, how many people of the Song Dynasty are in these six cities? ”
Xia Zhu stopped talking, but Ouyang Xiu realized what Chen Yuan wanted to say, and immediately stepped forward: "Long live, the largest of these six cities has 5,000 people, and the least has more than 2,000 people!" The combined population is more than 20,000, but only 5,000 of our people were killed, which shows that although Li Yuanhao broke the city, he did not have the ability to surround the city at all. ”
Renzong heard some truth from what they said, and asked again: "What happened to Yancheng then?" ”
Fu Bi took a step forward: "Long live, returning to Yancheng is the closest city to the border between us and the party, how can Lord Fan let that city be empty?" He must have left soldiers in Yancheng, so Li Yuanhao didn't dare to fight. ”
Chen Yuan smiled: "What Lord Fu said is reasonable, the emperor, and Weichen also think that the battle situation is not yet clear, and peace talks with Li Yuanhao at this time, as Lord Ouyang said, are inappropriate!" ”
Pang Ji saw that the situation was made vague by Chen Yuan's statement that there was no evidence at all, and he was very unwilling. looked at Chen Yuan with a vicious knife: "Shimei, everything you said is your speculation, if you guess wrong, once Yanzhou is lost, the rivers and mountains of the Great Song Dynasty will be dangerous!" Long live, the minister thinks that it is better to send important ministers to negotiate in Western Xinjiang! The party envoy Wu Hao is now in the Great Song Dynasty, which is just so that we can talk to Li Yuanhao without much trouble. ”
Xia Zhu said: "The minister agrees with the opinion of the Taishi, long live, if Yanzhou is really lost, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to send Li Yuanhao again." ”
Renzong was at a loss for what they said, and when he was hesitating, Chen Yuan suddenly said: "Long live, the minister thinks that the Taishi and the Taiwei have repeatedly made sense, in order to be foolproof, we can take Wu Hao to the Western Xinjiang first, and wait to find out the matter, if the Western Xinjiang is really in crisis, we can immediately make peace with Li Yuanhao." If the West Xinjiang is worry-free, don't talk about it. ”
Renzong nodded: "This is the best of both worlds." ”
