Chapter Ninety-Five: Teasing the Snatchers

"I see that the momentum of the army outside the city is like a rainbow, Yang Qing thinks it is worthy of a battle?"

Yang Sichang entered the palace to face the saint is to identify Haoge's matter and had eyebrows, and he just wanted to report it but heard the emperor ask such a sentence without a head. Yang Sichang, who has always been very sensitive, suddenly felt an extraordinary pressure, whether he could fight or not, he had to feel the holy will before answering, and all kinds of thoughts were spinning rapidly in Yang Sichang's head.

Cao Huachun's recital Yang Sichang has already read it, and he also knows that this is not the real Shandong army, but a homeless person. To tell the truth, it is already a rare victory for such a rabble to shake the Tartars so that they no longer attack the city, and if they take the initiative to attack the Tartars, wouldn't it be an egg to a stone? But since the emperor can raise this question, it must have its deep meaning, can it or not......

"Qi Gong Xià, the minister is not very good about the army outside the city for a while, it is all up to the Holy Judgment!"

Yang Sichang finally played a trick, he is not stupid, if he says that he can't fight, he will definitely disobey the holy will and offend the emperor. If it is said that it can be warned, defeat is a sure thing, and it is inevitable that you will have to carry this black pot when the time comes.

It was obvious that Zhu Youzhen was not satisfied with this answer, and he snorted almost inaudibly in his nose, and finally spoke after a long time.

"I have made up my mind, Yang Qing is a cabinet scholar and leads the soldiers and horses outside the city, and he will fight the Tartars in three days!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Cao and the others were stunned, and the air in the hall suddenly became tense. Li Xin's chest was not as excited as before, Zhu Youzhen's motive for insisting on this was already clear to him, and then looked at Cao Huachun on the side with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, like an angry little daughter-in-law, as if these things had nothing to do with him, his heart was even more cold, it seemed that this matter was difficult to change.

Sure enough, Yang Sichang bowed to receive the order, this time he acted according to the order, even if he was defeated, the emperor would carry him. Emperor Zhu Youzhen, who was on the throne, looked around the hall and took in their expressions and movements one by one.

This matter is settled, Zhu Youzhen's order for Yang Sichang to lead the troops is equivalent to receiving Li Xin's military power, everyone knows this, how Li Xin doesn't know, but he is not even a military attaché, what qualifications does a person have to speak out against this Wenhua Palace, I am afraid that even being in the palace is an exceptional grace.

Zhu Youzhen saw that there was no more opposition, and hummed lightly to express his satisfaction.

"Yang Qing still has something important?"

Yang Sichang then remembered the original intention of entering the palace this time, raised his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Your Majesty, the Jiannu people in Beijing include Guo Luo, Luo Clan, and Niu Gulu Clan, all of whom have confirmed that the person brought by Li Xin is the eldest son of the slave chief, Haoge!"

Before the words fell, he heard the sound of a sparse uproar, Li Xin raised his head slightly, only to see Zhu Youzhen standing up, maybe the movement was too big, and the chapter documents were scattered all over the ground, "Yang Qing's words are serious?" Even his voice trembled slightly, which showed his excitement.

"It is true that several Jiannu people were identified without being informed of their identities."

Yang Sichang has always been serious, and he is not completely sure that he will not make a judgment on one thing lightly, since he can say so, he must have been sure. Zhu Youzhen, who was originally suspicious of Haoge's identity, began to become excited, since the opening of the country, it is needless to say that Taizu and Chengzu have great martial arts, and who can capture the crown prince of the enemy country alive in the subsequent emperors and Yidi battles? It was definitely a big win, a big win. Hauge's capture may not have changed much militarily, but its impact on the political situation was immeasurable.

Yang Sichang was overjoyed to see the emperor and continued to add fuel and firewood.

"This is a great achievement that has not been produced in 200 years, and the court needs to perform the gift of Kai as a prisoner!"

Zhu Youzhen agreed with Yang Sichang's opinion, "How to do it, Yang Qing will draft a charter first!" ”

Yang Sichang replied: "Chen Jianyì, the gift of playing Kai to offer prisoners should be sooner rather than later." ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"It's an eventful autumn, and it's just a big boost to my morale!"

Zhu Youzhen nodded frequently, "What Yang Qing said is very true!" ”

Li Xin is not qualified to participate in the discussion, and he can only listen, Cao Huachun is still low eyebrows, Zhu Youzhen glanced at him, and asked, "What does Cao Gong think?" ”

Zhu Youzhen has great respect for his companions in the palace, regardless of his words and deeds, so that he can also call him Cao Gong.

Cao Huachun immediately bowed to the ground and said excitedly: "Old slave congratulations to His Majesty, congratulations to His Majesty, His Majesty to Shengming!" ”

This excitement may not be all for show, and there may be some personal emotions mixed with it during the period, Li Xin saw that Cao Huachun, who has always been high-spirited on weekdays, was so coy, and he speculated in his heart.

Zhu Youzhen's gaze finally turned to Li Xin, he was just Sun Chengzong's teacher who recruited the people, and he didn't have an official body but made such a contribution, how to reward him really had to be carefully considered, what position should be given to a reckless martial artist?

Saying that Li Xin is a reckless martial artist, Zhu Youzhen is not groundless, in this era of divine monarchy, the emperor is the sky, and anyone, regardless of his background and status, has a sense of awe in his heart when he first contacts the emperor. But he couldn't see the slightest shadow of awe in this martial artist who was born as a horse thief, the perfunctory when he saluted, and the confrontation when he disagreed, no matter which one was done by a reckless man, otherwise ordinary people would be frightened and speechless when they saw the emperor, even when they saw the local officials.

This kind of spirit is unruly when placed on the literati, and unruly when placed on the martial arts. Obviously, Li Xin belongs to the latter, so this kind of person must be a scourge if he doesn't use it well.

Zhu Youzhen is unmatched, he has decided to put a halter on this fierce horse with his own hands, but he has to take the school exam before he hedges the halter.

"Li Xin?"

Li Xin heard Zhu Youzhen call his name, and hurriedly knelt down, with the experience of the previous salute, this time kneeling was relatively smooth.

"The grass people are here!"

"It's a great credit to capture Hauge, but I don't know what reward I want to give you?"

Hearing Zhu Youzhen ask like this, Cao Huachun's smiling face twitched imperceptibly, the emperor was suspected of teasing when he asked like this, but he didn't know what the holy intention was? He peeked at the emperor who was back on the throne, but he couldn't guess what he was thinking.

Li Xinyan couldn't see that Zhu Youzhen didn't ask any questions, he rushed to Beijing Qinwang, but in exchange for disdain and teasing, the negative feelings were constantly fermenting and expanding. Since the time of the crossing, both Sun Chengzong and Dolgon have respected him, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who he was bent on saving is like a cat playing with a mouse. So he looked directly at Zhu Youzhen on the throne.

"The grass people were originally horse thieves in the mountains, and they and a group of brothers were originally going to be executed after the autumn, but now they have made an inch, and they only ask for forgiveness for the capital crime and let me return to my hometown."

Li Xin's request was neither humble nor arrogant, and Zhu Youzhen, who thought that he was wise, had the illusion of being out of control. According to common sense, if someone is questioned by the emperor like this, short-sighted people will ask for money and officials, and this kind of best deal is to give him one by one. Those with a little foresight will certainly be humble and shirk the reward. And what does this martial artist mean by only asking for forgiveness of capital crimes and asking to return to his hometown? Isn't this an embarrassment to the emperor?

Zhu Youzhen, who was on the throne, was choked, and he was really pardoned for capital crimes and let him return to his hometown, how will the world view the imperial court as an emperor in the future? At least one jealous and jealous notoriety is indispensable. But it is obviously inappropriate to let Zhu Youzhen take the initiative to add officials to him and become a knight, where does the face of the dignified emperor go?

At the critical moment, Yang Sichang came forward to solve the siege.

"Your Majesty, let the department discuss the reward, and all of them will be serious."

"It's good!"

Zhu Youzhen spit out two words dryly. He was just about to drive this group of people out, but he heard Yang Sichang say again: "When the minister came, he had already checked the Yellow Calendar, and the day after tomorrow was an auspicious day for the prisoners, and it would be inappropriate for the month after tomorrow. ”

Cao Huachun raised objections at this time.

"The gift of the prisoners is very important, and it has only been two days since today, how to prepare?"

Yang Sichang waved his sleeves and refuted: "It's easy to do things in a hurry!" He thought for a moment and then said: "Chen Jianyì, this time the prisoner should raise the specifications to show grandeur." ”

"Long live the words, what about the three-day decisive battle? Yang Xiang won't be cowardly, and he intends to shirk it, right? ”

"Hmph, the Tartars have invaded the Jingshi, Yang has long held a heart of death, and he will sacrifice the prisoners first and then fight the decisive battle, so what's the difficulty!"

Li Xin knelt under the jade steps, he didn't dare to get up without the emperor's order, at this time he didn't want to stay in this Forbidden City for a moment, and the expectations when he first entered the city turned into a sense of disappointment and anger, why is the emperor such an unreliable emperor, even if he Zhu Youzhen can be half pragmatic as Dolgon, he actually engaged in some conspiracy tricks, so sooner or later he has to make this central court a miasma, and the people's hearts will be lost.

As for the rest of the three gentlemen and ministers discussing hotly, he just turned a deaf ear.

……

Outside the city of Daming Jingshi, for several days, the Qing army finally stopped attacking the city, and both the city and the city enjoyed a rare afternoon sunshine. An uninvited guest came to the military tent in Dolgon, with a black gauze and green robe, and a large white pheasant on his chest, all of which showed that this person was a five-rank civil official.

Dorgon didn't know what he was trying to do.

"Elder Yang Ge? How strange it is to send people to invite them! ”

The green-robed civil official smiled and said: "The distinguished guest came from afar, coinciding with the grand ceremony in the city, how can it be reasonable to be slow." However, Yang Xiang also said that if King Rui is inconvenient, it is okay to send a messenger into the city on his behalf, how about it? Aren't you cowardly? ”

Dolgon laughed loudly, and said to Duo on the side: "Your envoy's words are so sharp, the big husband is vain, believe it or not, the fourteenth brother raised troops to enter the city in person to attend the meeting!" ”

The green-robed civil official proudly waved his sleeves and arched his hand, "This envoy will wait and see!" With that, he threw a letter on the case in front of Dorgon.

"The letter has been delivered, it's up to you to go or not! Leave! ”
