Chapter 282: Phoenix Room 11
Feng Lin was already standing and waiting, and the prince stepped forward to pour a full drink for the two. In the first cup, Feng Hua affirmed Feng Lin's meritorious work in quelling the chaos, and announced that he would add 1,200 stones and reward 240 servants. Feng Lin shouted long live and bowed down to thank you. The two drank a glass of wine, and Feng Hua poured another glass of wine.
This time, Feng Hua said: "King Ning, I still have a reluctant request, I don't know if you are willing to say it?" ”
A stunned look flashed across Feng Lin Si Wen Xianshu's face, he was noncommittal, and said with a deaf ear: "Brother is panicked, I don't know what Your Majesty is referring to?" If you do what you can, you will live up to Your Majesty's entrustment. ”
Bai Jinyu knew that this Fenglin was an old fox, and his answer sounded high-sounding and sounded very obedient, but in fact, the subtext was: I'll take a look at what things are going on, weigh them, and do them if it's cost-effective, and don't talk about it if it's not cost-effective.
"King Ning is humble, this matter must be within your ability." Feng Hua said sincerely: "This time the chaotic battle, the Jingshi guards suffered heavy losses, and now the general trend has just been decided, and the imperial court is the time to employ people, King Ning, why don't you go back to those soldiers who rushed under your command, let them stay in Chang'an to supplement the defense of the Beijing Division, and I will give each of them more than seven grades to be promoted by one level!" ”
The hall seemed to be quieter, and the princes in a row were sweating when they heard it.
Feng Hua's words should not be called sincerity, but should be called cheeky and black-hearted.
Feng Hua asked King Ning's troops to stay in Chang'an to enrich the guards, this is just a literal meaning, the actual intention under this face is to cut King Ning's military power!
King Ning was stunned unexpectedly.
Feng Hua smiled kindly, and said meaningfully: "There shouldn't be so many horses and soldiers in King Ning's mansion, right?" ”
When King Ning heard this, he immediately put down the cup, walked around the table, solemnly knelt down in front of Feng Hua, and said: "Your Majesty, the younger brother is missing, but there is a reason why the younger brother has raised so many soldiers. It is only because the Huai River floods every year, and when the flood peak comes, the water rushes down, which is unstoppable, and a lot of manpower is required for rescue and post-disaster reconstruction. The so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, if the younger brother waits for the flood disaster to come and then catches the strong men, I am afraid that the rescue time will be missed, so Ping Su raised some more people. ”
"Huh, some?" Not far from Fenglin, a person sneered.
Bai Jinyu turned her head to look, and saw that she had a little impression of the person who spoke, it was the person from the Zhongshu House who sent Feng Li to the chopping board that day, Qin Jian.
I still remember Qin Jian's handwriting last time, so when Bai Jinyu heard his sneer now, he immediately raised his eyebrows, knowing that he would not speak out for no reason.
As Bai Jinyu expected, Feng Hua did not stop a subordinate who was so unruly and mocking the prince, but stood still, waiting for him to continue.
Sure enough, Qin Jian said: "Before the Great Levy was founded, the land of Middle Earth was divided for more than 150 years, and dozens of countries coexisted side by side. In the early days of the founding of the country, in order to stabilize the situation of people's differences, Gaozu divided his seventeen princes into various parts of the world and gave them the right to garrison troops, in order to let them consolidate the royal power in various places to protect the phoenix family. ”
"However," Qin Jian said: "After more than a hundred years, the people of the state capitals have already surrendered to the great signs, so the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has issued an imperial decree, and the military defense in various places is gradually under the control of the governors of the local governments, and the prince's army shall not exceed 2,000 people from now on, and the violators will be punished for the crime of plotting rebellion." ”
After he said this, the air in the Yinghua Hall was frozen, and a murderous aura came out from all directions, in this special quiet, Bai Jinyu heard several pairs of chopsticks falling to the ground, and the sound of "clang" was very connotative every time.
After a slight pause, Qin Jian said: "Weichen has the courage to say bluntly, the 50,000 iron horsemen who came from Ning Wangfu this time should not be all, right?" In this way, the soldiers of His Royal Highness King Ning are probably more than two thousand......"
King Ning was prostrate at Feng Hua's feet, nodding his head to the ground, and no one knew what his expression was now.
Feng Hua bent over, and was about to help him up, when a cold voice sounded faintly: "Fifty thousand? Where are there so many, King Ning's soldiers were sent to death thousands of miles, and now there are 30,000 left? ”
Yinghua Hall suddenly became tense.
"Feng Ye!" Feng Hua stared at the person who spoke with condensed pupils, he handed the cup in his hand to the prince on the side, and had no intention of drinking it again.
Feng Ye, the king of Chu, looked a little heroic, sat diagonally with one leg bent in his position, and said coolly: "The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden." Only now does this king understand His Majesty the Emperor's good strategy of killing two birds with one stone and reaping the benefits of the fisherman! ”
Immediately there was a boiling discussion on the main hall, and many princes were asking "what does the king of Chu mean".
Obviously, this voice also entered Feng Ye's ears, he smiled as if he had seen some joke, stood up leisurely, pointed to the side, and pointed to the prince who had a whole circle and said, "You fools, haven't you woken up yet?" ”
"Who do you say is a fool?!"
"Feng Ye, please pay attention to your words!"
"You have the audacity to say it again!"
"You think we're afraid of you!"
……
Several princes were angered by Feng Ye, and when Feng Ye saw them denouncing him, he laughed loudly, and said, "I really haven't seen you so stupid, haha, including this king himself!" ”
As he spoke, he turned around, his gaze turned into a sharp sword and stabbed at Feng Hua, and said: "Chang'an is in chaos, you don't transfer the troops of the state capitals, and even the prince has shrunk in Luoyang before he arrives in Chang'an, but you called the princes' soldiers to come to Qinwang, isn't the purpose to expose the true scale of the princes' soldiers?" After we have helped you to kill the enemy and quell the rebellion, you now find another man to come out and say, 'The Prince's palace shall not exceed 2,000 soldiers, and those who violate it will be punished for plotting rebellion'...... How? Are you going to settle accounts with us now? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Yinghua Hall was in shock, Feng Hua and Feng Ye stood facing each other, and their eyes were already on the same fire and water in the electric light.
Feng Ye continued: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you have calculated a really good account! In this way, you don't need to spend a single soldier, so that the prince's soldiers and Fengli's border soldiers will fight for defeat, and you, now you have to sit on this endgame of the clam fight? ”
In the face of Feng Ye's aggressiveness, Feng Hua was very calm, he suppressed his angry look, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, have you drunk too much, are you drunk?" ”
Feng Ye smiled: "I'm not drunk, I have a wrong sentence and misunderstood, please correct His Majesty the Emperor!" ”
"You ......" Feng Hua was choked by his anger, and the reason why he was choked was precisely because what Feng Ye said was true, it can be said that he hit the nail on the head, and every key point was grasped by him.
"Feng Ye, let me tell you why you can mobilize the soldiers of the royal palace?"
Bai Jinyu saw Feng Chen, who had been right, stand up from his seat.
