Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi finally fell asleep with the help of medicine.

Empress Zhong Shuyun was very worried, and her face was worried.

She looked at the sleeping Xiao Chengyi, her cheeks were thin and out of shape, and she was very distressed.

She asked Luo Xiaonian, "Your Majesty, how long has it been like this?" ”

Luo Xiaonian was cautious, bowed down and replied: "Queen Qiyu, Your Majesty has not rested well for half a month, and is always awakened by nightmares. ”

She frowned, "Is the situation so bad?" ”

Luo Xiaonian shook his head, "The old slave doesn't know!" ”

She sighed and was silent for a moment, "I will serve Your Majesty, and the palace will come back later." ”

She left Xingqing Palace and ordered someone to invite her mother, Princess Chengyang, into the palace.

……

Princess Chengyang happily came to Weiyang Palace.

Zhong Shuyun was a little unhappy, "The thieves are about to hit the capital, and my mother can still laugh." ”

Princess Chengyang was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Who made you angry and made you angry at the palace." Is there another who is talking nonsense in your ear? ”

"Mother misunderstood! I apologize to my mother. ”

After speaking, Zhong Shuyun sighed and said worriedly: "Your Majesty has not slept well for half a month, and I really can't hold it up today, so I let the imperial doctor prescribe medicine to fall asleep." I'm worried that if I continue like this, Your Majesty's body will be dried up sooner or later. Mother, is there any way to help Your Majesty? ”

Chairman Cheng Yang sat down and snorted coldly, "How else do you want this palace to help him?" There is a shortage of food, and the palace offers food. Shaofu has no money, and your father has tried his best to open up sources and reduce expenditure, borrowing money from east to west, so as to gather the grain and grass needed by the imperial army.

Inevitably, there will be a rebellion again, and you can't bear to delay the spring ploughing, your father gave up his old face, borrowed people from major families, borrowed chariots and horses, and delivered grain and grass to the north. Do you know how much favor your father owes since he took the position of Shaofu family commander? These favors will need to be repaid by your father in the future! ”

Zhong Shuyun opened her mouth, but she still asked cheekily: "In addition to collecting money and food, is there any other way to share your majesty's worries!" ”

Syllable!

Princess Chengyang slapped it on the table, "Do you want to hollow out the princess's mansion and use it to make up for the emperor?" You're just confused! Since ancient times, there has never been a war, and it is necessary to rely on the courtiers to use private property to supply money and food. ”

"The imperial court can't make ends meet......"

"That's not the responsibility of this palace either! Besides, your father and I have done our part, doing our best to help the emperor share his worries, and you are still not satisfied, do you have to force us to death? Has the Tao family done anything to share the emperor's worries? Did Empress Dowager Tao say anything? Your brother is ready to go to the front to fight, what else are you going to do? ”

Princess Chengyang was annoyed.

Zhong Shuyun was taken aback, "Big brother is going to the north to fight?" What did he think? It's a good errand, why do you suddenly want to go to the north to fight? ”

"What else! Isn't it because I rejected Yan Yunge's marriage with your father, and he is angry with us. ”

Speaking of this, Princess Chengyang is angry.

"This palace doesn't understand, what is the charm of Yan Yunge, so that your eldest brother will not marry her. Everyone has clearly rejected him, and he still can't let go. At the beginning of spring, he said that he would go to the northern front to fight and serve the imperial court. He farts! He just doesn't want to stay in the capital, he doesn't want to face this palace and your father, in the end, he is running away! ”

Princess Chengyang was so angry that she drank a cup of tea in one go.

Zhong Shuyun's brows furrowed, "Big brother is confused! There is no grass at the end of the world, and he is clearly drilling the tip of the horns. If you can't get it, you keep thinking about it in your heart, and the more you think about it, the more you want it. ”

Princess Chengyang sneered, "Not only is your eldest brother confused, but even Xiao Yi's little bastard is also worried about Yan Yunge." I don't understand, in addition to knowing how to manage money, what is good about Yan Yunge, everyone is thinking about her. ”

"Xiao Yi is also thinking about Yan Yunge? How would the mother know? Could it be that when others are in the capital, they are not afraid that the Queen Mother will kill him? ”

Zhong Shuyun was confused.

After entering the palace, he did not pay as much attention to things outside the palace as he did in the past, and the information lagged behind a lot.

Princess Chengyang sneered, "Of course, Xiao Yi invited someone to go to the county lord's mansion to propose marriage, but Zhuyang refused." He does not give up, he blindly stalks, and his skin is thicker than the city wall. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and such a big thing naturally can't be hidden from the palace. ”

Zhong Shuyun was a little unhappy, "I haven't seen Yan Yunge for a long time, I don't know what she has become, she actually provoked the eldest brother and Xiao Yi, and I was fascinated by her." Could it be that these days, men don't like virtuous and gentle girls, but like spicy and irritable wild girls? ”

Princess Chengyang laughed, and Zhong Shuyun's words amused her.

After laughing, she said, "If you want to talk about Yan Yunge's appearance, it is first-class good." Even the main palace can't find fault. If you insist on finding fault, you are too heroic and not gentle enough. Speaking of her temper, compared to when she first came to the capital, she has changed a little, not as irritable as she used to be, but she is not virtuous and gentle.

Men like freshness. From childhood to adulthood, it is not uncommon to see gentle and gentle girls. Suddenly saw a woman with a temperament very different from the beauty of the capital, and curiosity was inevitable.

When they become relatives, they will know that it is better to marry a virtuous woman when marrying a wife, or a gentle woman is more suitable to marry home. Like Yan Yunge, as soon as the freshness passes, I am afraid that chickens and dogs will jump every day, punches and kicks, don't think about having a peaceful day. Your eldest brother just has too little experience to think through, and he has drilled the tip of the horns. Your father and I are so sad about him. ”

Zhong Shuyun hurriedly said: "The war is dangerous, don't stop the eldest brother, don't let him go to the front line to take risks." Just for a mere Yan Yunge, let his mother and father worry about him, doesn't he feel ashamed? ”

Princess Chengyang sighed, "He is now on the tip of the horns, and he can't listen to what we say." Wait, when he calms down, maybe he will figure it out. ”

"Is my mother going to watch my eldest brother go north to fight? Don't you be afraid of a whatever? ”

"There will be no just in case! Your father and I have made all the arrangements to send him a thousand men for the guards alone. The Northern Army also said hello and will not arrange too dangerous errands for your eldest brother. The best thing is to be a logistics officer, in charge of grain, grass and people, this errand is basically not dangerous. ”

Zhong Shuyun's brows couldn't be stretched, "Mother isn't worried about the eldest brother's disobedience?" ”

Princess Chengyang sneered, "The military order is like a mountain, I don't believe it, your eldest brother dares to openly disobey the military order." Okay, your eldest brother's affairs have Bengu and your father to worry about. As for you, take care of the harem, take care of Your Majesty's body, and don't worry about other things. ”

Zhong Shuyun smiled bitterly, "How can I not worry about it." Mother didn't see His Majesty's current appearance, he was about to lose weight, I was really worried that if it went on like this, he would ...... Untimely death! ”

As soon as the words fell, her eyes turned red, and her heart was extremely sour, and she was so uncomfortable.

Princess Chengyang was skeptical, "Is it really as serious as you say?" ”

Zhong Shuyun nodded heavily, "It's just more serious than I said." If the mother does not believe me, she can ask the father. The father must have known the specific situation. ”

Princess Chengyang's face was heavy, "It seems that the situation is not good!" The imperial court declared that the war in the north was going smoothly and there were great victories. Now it seems that the so-called great victory is also a pyrrhic victory. Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself.

Grain and grass are still easy to solve, and veterans who can fight can't replenish them. A group of recruits were sent to the front line in the north, and they couldn't stand up to it, and at most they defended the city. It's really not the right time for your eldest brother to go to the front line at this time. ”

Zhong Shuyun asked curiously, "Didn't my father mention these situations before?" ”

"You also know that your father doesn't talk much and doesn't like to talk about things in the court. The palace was too lax during this time, and he didn't pay attention to the situation in the world in time. After going back, Hongu had to ponder for a long time. ”

"Where is Your Majesty? Can Mother share His Majesty's worries? ”

"Bengong is not a general, and there are no generals in his hands, how do you ask Bengong to help him? At most, they will continue to donate food and grass. In addition, you have to count on the border soldiers and the group of arrogant soldiers. ”

……

Thousands of miles away, a slaughter!

Within a radius of 50 miles inside and outside the defense line of the imperial army, the walls were clear, and only the soldiers were seen, but the people were not seen.

Several armies converged, each divided the defense line, and each guarded the border pass and important city.

It's not going to be easy for everyone.

In a series of small battles, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

The Northern Army can still be replenished in a timely manner, and other generals will inevitably be perfunctory and delayed.

Among them, the weakest and most difficult is none other than Youzhou soldiers and horses.

Yan Shouzhan was full of war breath, and the whole person was like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and he wanted to kill anyone when he saw it.

He slapped the table, his eyes like a ferocious beast.

"This battle can't be fought! Ben Hou's soldiers and horses are almost gone, and the northern army still wants Ben Hou to continue to contain Wuheng's soldiers and horses. Why didn't he say it directly, let Ben Hou go to death! ”

Yan Shouzhan gritted his teeth.

If the general of the Northern Army was here, he would have to kill the other party.

Let the general of the Northern Army command all the soldiers and horses, this is the decision made by the former Emperor Yongtai.

Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi firmly carried out this order and never wavered from the idea of removing the general of the Northern Army.

Since the Northern Army had lost one, the subsequent battles were very difficult, but they were not defeated.

A crushing victory is a victory!

The Northern Army has limited troops, and it needs the cooperation of soldiers and horses from all walks of life to contain the Wuheng soldiers and horses.

The main force of Wuheng, the Northern Army to solve.

Wuheng soldiers and horses, fighting for several years, are veterans of a hundred battles, and they are not easy to fight.

Even if it is just a soldier and horse, it will take ten percent of its strength to push the enemy back.

For Yan Shouzhan, who was bent on preserving his strength and wanting to expand his army, but suffering from lack of resources, he was never able to expand his army, this battle was too difficult, too distressing, and too uncomfortable.

The veterans of a hundred battles who were finally raised, seeing that they were gone one by one, Yan Shouzhan was distressed!

If the fight continues, the soldiers and horses of Youzhou should be completely crippled, and I don't know how long it will take to recover.
