Chapter 738: The war is heating up
Amber saw that Long Xingche was a little tired, looked up at the time, and said to Long Xingche: "Your Majesty, it's not too early, you should rest early!" ”
Long Xingche nodded slightly, got up from the dragon chair, and was about to go to bed when the sound of horses' hooves came from outside the Zichen Palace!
Long Xingche smiled bitterly: "Amber, it seems that tonight is another sleepless night!" ”
Under normal circumstances, ordinary people were not allowed to ride horses through the palace. However, since the beginning of the civil strife in Chen, Long Xingche allowed the post envoy who reported to the military affairs in front to come directly to the palace on horseback.
"Report - report the war ahead!"
"Hurry up and bring it up!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
As soon as the envoy's words fell, the door of the Zichen Hall was opened. Then the envoy entered the Zichen Hall with a bamboo tube in both hands, and handed the bamboo tube to Long Xingche's hand.
Long Xingche opened the bamboo tube, and after seeing the content of the battle report inside the bamboo tube, his face turned pale, and he hammered the dragon case with his fist fiercely and said: "Li Renchuan is really a toast and doesn't eat and drink!" ”
Amber saw Long Xingche's reaction after reading the content of the station report, and knew that something very serious had happened.
"Your Majesty, do you want to pass Prince Fu and Prince Yi and others into the palace to discuss matters?"
"Go ahead! By the way, go to the Qingxin Hall and call the queen mother! ”
So, in the middle of the night, Prince Fu's father and son and Long Xiche, along with more than twenty civil and military ministers trusted by Long Xingche, were summoned to the palace.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Let's all get even!"
"Emperor Xie!"
"I originally thought that the people of Dawn would be unnecessarily harmed by the war, but now it seems that this idea is only to embolden Li Incheon and his rebels, and it's time to make a move!" Long Xingche deeply felt that there was no reason to drag on this inevitable war again!
"The Queen Mother has arrived!"
At this time, after receiving the notice, the Queen Mother hurried to Long Xingche's Zichen Palace.
"The son knocks to see the queen mother!"
"Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose!"
Because the queen mother came in a hurry, she didn't dress up, and she rushed to Zichen Hall with a cloak outside.
"Let's all be even, now that the country is like this, these false courtesies will be waived! Emperor, this is a talisman given to me by the first emperor, and I will give you all of them now to use to quell the rebellion. As she spoke, the Queen Mother took out eight talismans with dragon patterns from her sleeve pocket and put them in Long Xingche's hand.
Long Xingche knelt down on his knees and took the talisman given to him by the Queen Mother: "Thank you to the Queen Mother, the sons will definitely use these hidden forces to control the situation!" ”
The Queen Mother took out a map from her other sleeve pocket and put it in Long Xingche's hand: "I still have something to give you, you and you get up and open it to take a look, and then study with the ministers how to control these forces that are equivalent to the ability of the talisman in my hand!" ”120
Long Xingche listened to the Queen Mother's words, hurriedly got up and spread the paper on the dragon case, and his eyes widened in shock.
Long Xingche saw the map given to him by the Queen Mother, which had a lot of troop deployment maps circled in red to protect the important checkpoints of the Chen Kingdom.
"Mother, what's going on with the forces in these places? Why do you circle it with a red pen? ”
"The main reason why the mourners did this is that they want you to pay strict attention to these places when quelling the rebellion. The mourning family suspected that the emperor not only gave me a talisman, but also gave Long Yunche's biological mother, Concubine Jin. And the location of the red circle is the place where there is a possibility of rebellion! Don't pestle you all go there, when is it! All come over to see if there is anything to understand? ”
As the Queen Mother spoke, she beckoned those civil and military ministers to gather in front of the dragon case. When the ministers saw the location of the red circle on the dragon case, they began to talk about it.
However, what made the Queen Mother feel incredible was that Long Xingche was still in a daze there!
The Queen Mother actually always knew that the current situation of Chenguo was very difficult to clean up, but as a woman, Chenguo has always had the rule that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so when Long Xingche took the ministers to discuss things, she could only be in a hurry.
Therefore, when the Queen Mother found Long Xingche in a daze there, she scolded anxiously: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and discuss with them what to do! ”
Long Xingche's hand on the dragon case clenched: "The queen mother is angry, in fact, the places that the queen mother said have begun to rebel, this is the battle report ahead, everyone take a look!" Just passed it on! ”
After Wang Ye Fu picked up the battle report and read it, his eyes widened in surprise: "The Queen Mother is like a god, these are really restless forces." Your Majesty, I don't know where the soldiers are the soldiers given by the Queen Mother? ”
After carefully looking at the geographical location marked on the talisman, Long Xingche was much more relieved: "Don't panic, everyone!" I now understand the painstaking efforts of the first emperor. ”
Long Xingche said and put the talisman on the table: "Ladies and gentlemen, please see, the eight positions of Gan Mao, Zhiqi, Huantai, Guizhi, Xinyang, Zeli, Huitai, and Qiyue are exactly aligned with the position at the red circle!" Do you see any reason? ”
Fu Wenxi glanced at Long Xiche meaningfully: "The first emperor means that they should supervise each other, and they can also check and balance each other, so that if one of the people holding the talisman rebels, they can use people who are equal to their strength and ability to subdue them!" ”
Long Xiche felt Fu Wenxi's gaze, and then smiled at him. pursed his lips, then walked to Long Xingche and knelt down beside him: "Although my father has explained that this matter should not be said now, but if the younger brother does not say it again, I am afraid that he will lead to trouble." ”
Long Xingche thought of the time when he took out the talisman given by the Queen Mother just now, Fu Wenxi glanced at Long Xiche. felt that there must be a story in this, and got up to help Long Xiche up: "Xiche, what do you mean by this?" ”
However, Long Xiche stubbornly did not get up and continued to kneel there and said: "Brother Chen, please atone for your sins, because Brother Chen also has eight talismans in his hand. Moreover, the total number of troops is stronger than that of the imperial brother and the king of Huaijun. ”
"You even have a talisman in your hand?"
These are the words that Long Xingche and the Queen Mother shouted at the same time because of shock!
Long Xiche knelt there and nodded: "That's right! That was exactly what my mother, Concubine Hui, gave me on her deathbed, and then told me some of the words that my father had confessed. ”
"What did my father say?" Long Xingche suddenly felt very frustrated, although it has been more than ten years since he ascended the throne and became emperor, there are still some things he doesn't understand!
"Brother Huang, don't be in a hurry, and listen to the younger brother slowly......"
It turned out that the first emperor was worried that Long Xingche and Long Xiche would fight for the throne, which would put the entire Chen Kingdom into an uncontrollable situation. The heavy troops of the eight most important troop deployment points of the Chen Kingdom were all divided into positions.
Then, he gave the eight talismans to Long Xiche's biological mother, Concubine Hui, and secretly passed on the decree that seeing the talismans was like seeing him. The soldiers under the jurisdiction of the talisman must swear to act according to the orders of the person who holds the talisman in his hand!
The first emperor secretly ordered Concubine Hui to let Long Xiche when Long Xingche and Long Yunche made the Chen Kingdom uncontrollable because of the throne. Long Xiche, who had no intention of fighting for the throne, took out the talisman and sent troops to stop them, and elected a wise person as the king, or replaced him!
