Chapter 028: Boping

When Qiao Gongshan came in with a sandalwood box painted with gold and phoenix patterns, Yuan Zheng and Wei Chongye were holding black and white in the warm pavilion and talking to the window.

He silently put down the box in his hand, took the plum blossom incense spoon of the crane head, took out the honey-colored incense pill from the box and added it to the Boshan furnace next to the couch, while listening to the dispute between the two, he first pursed his lips and smiled, holding the box and standing silently behind Yuan Zheng.

"Although your infantry formation is exquisite, it is still very difficult to deal with strong cavalry. I entangled your right flank with a thousand armored cavalry, and I brought three thousand light cavalry to quickly rush into your left flank in a wedge-shaped array to threaten the Chinese army, and at this moment your left and right flanks were tripped by me, and then I sent a thousand elite cavalry to outflank you......"

Wei Chongye said his steps to divide the troops, and at the same time quickly picked up the white seeds and placed them in the left and right directions of the sunspots.

Dachen Huaiyuan army perennial against the enemy Tu Xilu and Tulun nomadic cavalry, field combat experience in the enemy, Huaiyuan cavalry is also the whole Dachen rare brave journey, his two parents are the leaders of the Huaiyuan army.

At this moment, Yuan Zheng gave up holding on to the infantry formation, and chose to go out of the city to fight with the cavalry, and the chessboard simulation battle between the two of them was too simple, thinking about this, Yuan Zheng sighed greatly, "I have many soldiers and generals, and the formation is exquisite, you only have thousands of elite cavalry, and you may not have the certainty of victory." ”

Tulun and Tuxilu are still a major threat to the north and west of Dachen, and every year when the grass and horses are fat, they have to go south, and plunder on the border line of Dachen, which is called "beating grass valley", and the border people are unbearable.

Decades ago, Mingzong had sent the old general Zhang Huai to the west to conquer Tuxilu, and a few years ago Wei Jinglin also went to Tuxilu to quell the rebellion of his tribe, which caused Tuxilu's vitality to be greatly damaged and had no time to look eastward.

However, Tulun was not conquered, and even joined forces with the Li clan to disrupt the government, so that the Huaiyuan army lost its main general, and the army was almost wiped out.

After Yuan Zheng ascended to the pole, it was urgent to rebuild the scale of the cavalry and reshape the combat strength of the cavalry, and the topic of less cavalry made both of them lose interest in "fighting" again, not to mention that the reconstruction of the cavalry also involved the past of the two people who lost their loved ones.

Qiao Gongshan, who was standing behind Yuan Zheng, looked at the dejected appearance of the two, sighed heavily in his heart, but pretended to be relaxed on his face, "Your Majesty hasn't been to the school for a few days, I heard that General Guo is quite good at training, and the riding and archery kung fu of the brothers of the Yulin Army is really first-class, and a living creature two hundred steps away can also hit with one blow......"

Although they knew that the other party was deliberately exaggerating and comforting them, the corners of their mouths still involuntarily smiled.

Although Dachen's horse bow range was less than 200 steps ahead of the armies of neighboring countries, they believed in Guo Xiaoyi's training strength, after all, he was one of the most powerful generals under Wei Jinglin's command.

Seeing that Yuan Zheng noticed the box he was holding in his hand, and his eyes showed a look of inquiry, Qiao Gongshan immediately stopped dancing and touting, bowed down and held the box in front of Yuan Zheng, and explained with a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"It's Li Gongling next to the Empress Dowager, her old man sent a few incense to His Majesty early in the morning, all of which the Empress Dowager likes very much on weekdays, and the name is also very delicate and elegant. The most wonderful thing is the incense bait that the villain just put in the stove and lit, and the empress dowager named this incense Hanhai Boping. ”

"Turning to the Yellow River to cross the Yellow River, there is a lot of joy in the truce. The depression is clear, and the sea is silent. Grandmother's name is very satisfying. ”

At this moment, I got up and paced slowly in front of the couch, and I smelled the shallow but distinct fragrance of autumn grass from my breath, and stopped to smell it, but the grass fragrance was faintly mixed with the cold golden armor breath, as if I could touch the coolness of the autumn breeze outside the plug and the sand and gravel in the sun.

The cool breath poured in from the end of the nose, spread to the top of the skull in an instant, and then to the limbs, and the whole body was permeable and clear - it was indeed a wonderful fragrance!

Yuan Zheng deeply felt that his grandmother's incense name was agreed, and the imagination brought out the long-hidden youthful pride brought out by the fragrance, and unconsciously swept away the blocks that had accumulated in his chest.

"As long as the two people in the palace and outside the palace in front of you stop a little, the aftermath of Hanhai will be at least half subsided." Yuan Zheng smiled bitterly.

Before he spoke, Wei Chongye had already gotten up from the couch and stood behind Yuan Zheng - even though he had heard Yuan Zheng mention countless times that he did not need to deliberately maintain the courtesy of a monarch and a minister in front of Qiao Gongshan, he had been taught by the elders in his family since he was a child, and he was used to seeing the family family in a high position and being pampered and arrogant, causing the mansion to collapse overnight, and he knew that he should not go too far.

Qiao Gongshan carefully watched Yuan Zheng's face turn from dark to clear, breathed a sigh of relief, then bent down and took a step forward to approach Chongye's side, and whispered to the two of them: "There is another important thing to show the emperor, do you remember the strange things you encountered when you stayed in the dormitory of the Imperial Palace on the night of the enthronement ceremony?" At present, several suspects have been touched, and one of them is extremely interesting, it is Cui Xi, the little apprentice who often follows behind Zhang Ping! ”

The Emperor's Palace has always been the place where the emperor deals with daily government affairs, and the night eunuchs in his dormitory are of a higher level, which is not something that ordinary people can bear. Therefore, there are only a few suspicious people who have been locked, and it is not difficult to investigate and test them one by one.

It is difficult to be difficult for Yuan Zheng to ascend the throne is an accident, because in the past, he did not pay attention to the dots, resulting in Yuan Zheng's master and servant in the palace and no connections, and this time it is the time when the forces of all parties in the palace are intertwined, and it is more necessary to be cautious in the verification, so as not to take a wrong step to startle the snake, and it is to investigate the people of the night Qiao Gongshan and Guo Xiaoyi took great pains.

Yuan and Wei glanced at each other, and they both saw the same reaction in each other's eyes.

First of all, those who can quietly enter the dormitory that night must be old men with some power in the palace.

Moreover, those who can know that the new emperor who has just ascended to the throne is in danger must be close to the conspiracy and the center of power, know some about the secrets of the palace, and even have the opportunity to participate in it.

Finally, those who can know that the emperor is in danger and are willing to warn them must not be those who have a vested interest in the previous events.

It is speculated that the person who meets these three conditions at the same time may indeed be Cui Xi.

"It seems that Zhang Ping is not a bowl of water for these three apprentices, Yao Gui is in charge of everything in the palace, and he doesn't know how much oil and water he has to catch every year. And although Cui Xi is Zhang Ping's most painful, he is only taking care of his diet and daily life at the moment. After a long time, this little apprentice inevitably had other thoughts in his heart. ”

Qiao Gongshan saw the surprised and understanding expressions on the faces of the two, and explained one more sentence.

When he first entered the palace in his early years, he heard that there were conventions in the palace, such as Yao Gui was in charge of the affairs of the internal supervisors in the palace, and the fixed amount of silver collected from the foreign city department and the eunuchs of the local superintendent army every year alone had more than 10 million taels of silver, not to mention the rewards of the emperor in the palace, as well as the bribes of the foreign ministers and subordinate small internal eunuchs.

Yuan Zheng stood up and paced to the Boshan furnace where two wisps of mist were slowly spitting, took a deep breath, turned around and walked in front of Chongye and Qiao Gongshan, and said loudly:

"It seems that we have to take two steps, one is the strategy of doubting the army, the most important thing at the moment is to deliberately win over Zhang Ping and make him relax his vigilance, and Yanling County will also doubt the sincerity of his alliance, and the alliance between these two forces will not be so solid. At the same time, if you try to break the enemy's method, you may have to be wronged in the future, and we need to use more than one bitter trick to alienate you, and create an opportunity for you to deliberately contact Cui Xi and test it. It is not difficult to kill Zhang Ping, but what is difficult is to find out the intertwined forces behind him. ”

"As for my domineering uncle, since he can't be moved for a while, of course I want to add grace to show honor!"

Yuan Zheng stretched out his finger and pressed his finger towards the ethereal smoke on the Boshan stove, and a cold bright color flashed in his eyes.

He silently looked at the high-spirited side face of his young brother and friend, the current young son of heaven, and his chest suddenly gave birth to infinite pride and pride.

Third Brother Zheng...... He's never been so wanton! entered Beijing at a young age as a hostage, and under the advice of his father, he blindly forbears and hides so that the emperor will not pay too much attention to himself, and then let his family go.

Since he was a child, he has never shown his wisdom and strategy in front of others, even in front of his close friend, he plays the role of a generous brother most of the time. Only on rare occasions, in order to protect himself and the people around him, will he slightly reveal his planning and decisiveness that do not belong to the youth.

"Now, he finally doesn't have to be deliberately obscure, so hard to survive!" He sighed in his heart, sincerely happy for Yuan Zheng.
