Capital.

As soon as the court meeting ended, the courtiers' faces were full of sadness, the war in the northwest had not stabilized, and there was another accident in the north.

King Jian's party rebelled, Li Xu of the Criminal Department turned out to be King Jian's party, and it is very likely to be the heir of King Jian.

It was eventful, the imperial court wanted to send troops to northern Xinjiang, but there was no suitable candidate for the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War.

"What if you really let the Tatars call?"

"Those traitors must not join forces with the Tatars, it would be bad if it really did."

"How long has it been since King Jane's affairs, thanks to King Jane's death, otherwise it would have been a good idea...... The consequences are unimaginable. ”

When it comes to this incident, everyone has lingering palpitations.

Hong Chuanting sighed: "An Yihou's son, daughter, and son-in-law are all in northern Xinjiang, and the humerus of the country is really admirable, but it's a pity......"

Everyone knows what Hong Chuanting's sentence of pity means, but no one dares to answer the second half of Hong Chuanting's sentence.

Hong Chuanting looked at the officials who gathered together to discuss countermeasures, but it was a pity that the emperor trapped Marquis An Yi in the capital, and the imperial court gradually abandoned the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, and the Liaodong Metropolitan Division had not seen the commander for a long time, and only a Ma Dudu had drifted into the palace like a snowflake every year.

The court was unwilling to spend more money on such a bitter cold place as Nuergan, so Ma Dudu's twists and turns have not been answered.

Every time the military department mentions Nuergan, everyone says that if you lose Nuergan, you will lose the barrier between you and the Tatars, and you will not be able to control the northern tribes, and I am afraid that it will become the biggest worry of the Great Zhou.

But there are too many words, and no one cares about it after a long time, this time the beacon tower is really lit, after Li Xu raised troops in Yongping Mansion, the displaced people suddenly poured into Kaipingwei, and if this continues, even if you win this battle, if you don't manage it well, the national strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty will inevitably decline.

Obviously, the emperor can only deal with the things in front of him, and has no energy to think about anything else, as for the one in Cining Palace, he is even more like watching a play, waiting for the opportunity to make the Zhang family make a comeback.

Hong Chuanting shook his head, King Jian really saw the Queen Mother and the Emperor clearly.

"Lord Hong," the King of Shunyang stepped forward, "have you heard?" ”

Hong Chuanting frowned, what did he hear? Think about a painting pasted in front of the Chengwang Mansion a while ago, a person with a head full of ears, which is very consistent with the appearance of the king of Shunyang at this moment.

"What?" Hong Chuanting asked solemnly.

The king of Shunyang County said: "It is said that the imperial court has been delayed in sending troops because the imperial court suspects that Song Chengxuan is the prince of the king of Wei?" Is it true?

Lord Hong first saw Song Chengxuan in the southeast, was he interrogated by the imperial court? ”

"The prince of the county should not listen to those rumors," Hong Chuanting said, "At such a time, it will undoubtedly be worse to be deceived again." ”

The King of Shunyang County looked sad: "Prince Wei was framed and killed by King Jian, and now he is still being used by King Jian's party, not to mention that this matter is impossible."

Even if the prince of Wei is still alive, the imperial court will recall him to carefully try the case of King Wei back then, and will never draw conclusions in vain. ”

Hong Chuanting nodded, what the king of Shunyang said made sense, if the prince of Wei was still alive, the court would presumably deal with it like this.

Hong Chuanting suddenly found that he was taken crooked by the king of Shunyang County, what does the war done by the slave do now, what does it have to do with the king of Wei, and besides, the king of Wei's family is in trouble, there can be no such situation.

The king of Shunyang County continued: "Lord Song came to Beijing to capture thieves, and Lord Hong can see clearly the hardships all the way, and now he is leading troops to quell the chaos in Nu'er, and his loyalty to Da Zhou can be seen, and at such a time, he can no longer be slandered by people with a heart." ”

Before the words of the king of Shunyang County were finished, an official next to him said: "What General Song has done is obvious to all, I hope that General Song can quell the rebellion of Nuergan as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, the king of Shunyang County hugged his fists to the people around him and walked quickly towards the palace.

Hong Chuanting looked at the back of the King of Shunyang County, and he always felt that the words of the King of Shunyang County were a little strange.

"King Jian's party is really doing everything, and the King of Wei's rebellion has been used by them for many years, and now they are still trying to disturb people's hearts."

"Even if the prince of Wei is alive, what can he do? The case of King Wei back then was already strange, and it may not be possible to restore the name of King Wei. ”

"As long as the court ignores these, King Jian's people will be helpless."

Listening to these words, Hong Chuanting's heart sank, a few words from the king of Shunyang County played a role, is the king of Shunyang really just worried that Song Chengxuan was framed? Or is there something else in mind?

Hong Chuanting frowned, he had no time to think about this now, the slave was in the middle of the war, and he had to guard against the Tatars attacking Xuanfu, and it was becoming more and more difficult for this military department to do.

The king of Shunyang strode towards the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, some things have to be paved slowly, so that everyone will not be surprised when it happens, and everyone thinks that the life of the prince of Wei is not necessarily a bad thing, then it will never become a bad thing.

……

When Li Xu returned from his tour of the camp, he immediately ordered Zhang Hu and others to enter the Chinese army's big tent to report the war.

"I'm afraid that the Yu family can't hold out for long, Master Yu and Uncle Yu didn't come to the slave to do it, the second master Yu has been seriously injured, and the soldiers and horses brought out by the Yu family have long been dead and wounded, all relying on our people to support them."

Zhang Hu paused after speaking: "Ma Dudu has led people to occupy twelve guards, and the scouts have carefully checked them, and trenches have been built in front of those guards, and some guards have also transported artillery. ”

Li Xu frowned slightly when he heard this.

Zhang Hu said: "I didn't expect that Ma Dudu would dismantle the big ships of Jinzhouwei, I heard that Ma Dudu was very precious about those ships and firearms. ”

Li Xu thought of Song Chengxuan, Song Chengxuan served in the southeast, so he naturally knew the ship very well, it should be that he persuaded Ma Dudu to take out all the money on the ship, but he had miscalculated before and did not think of this.

In the past, Ma Dudu was afraid that the Japanese would invade, and he refused to use the soldiers and horses and baggage of the Jinzhou Guard, but now it is different, the court knows that the slaves have started a war, and Dengzhou Mansion and Weihaiwei will definitely gather troops and horses, and the Japanese dare to take the opportunity to make trouble, and Weihaiwei will inevitably send troops, so Ma Dudu naturally does not have to think about this, and can rest assured and boldly empty the entire Jinzhou Wei, I am afraid that before the Yu family sends troops, Ma Dudu has already started to do this.

Li Xu narrowed his eyes, although there were not many guards occupied by Madu, they all did a solid job of fortifications, so that he couldn't take those guards for a while, and he couldn't enter the guards, so the military funds would not be replenished, and he would be trapped here for a long time.

"Where is Song Chengxuan's army?" Li Xu looked at Zhang Hu.

Zhang Hu said: "It's not far from us, but it's ...... We have a lot of soldiers and horses, and Song Chengxuan should not attack directly. ”

Not necessarily.

Li Xu looked at Yutu, he always felt that Song Chengxuan was menacing this time, as if he was going to settle a grudge with him.
