Chapter 45: The Early Dynasty (2)
It's just that he never thought that this teenage boy not only did not die on the battlefield, but returned victorious.
Everyone sighed that King Ling's young talent, if it weren't for the good of Longyang, he wouldn't be able to have a queen, I'm afraid that the throne would be his.
Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Yang's lips hooked up a sneer, how simple the four words were when he returned from victory, but only he knew that he couldn't convince the crowd when he was young, and how difficult it was to overwhelm the heroes and establish the spirit of the army. Only he knew how to deal with those barbarians to win the final victory.
Just looking down at the ground, Xu Yang could feel the coercion coming from above his head, and the light flashed in his narrow eyes. It's just that he still dares to put the army in his own hands.
At that time, there were already ministers who came out to play: "Your Majesty, five years ago, King Ling went out to fight, in exchange for a few years of peace in my north, King Ling's heroic martial arts are unmatched, it is better to send King Ling to fight again, I must be able to protect my northern territory." ”
Everyone in the court and the central government looked at each other, and those with discernment naturally knew the stakes in it. If King Ling is really allowed to go on the expedition, he will definitely be able to keep the northern border, but the current King Ling may not be as easy to deal with as when he was young, and if the military power is in the hands of King Ling, I am afraid it will not be so easy to hand it over. But if King Ling is not allowed to go on the expedition, I am afraid that no one will be able to deal with those barbarians in the north.
The courtiers were thinking about it, when they saw another person come out and play: "Your Majesty, King Ling has been the prince of the court for many years, and he has not been at war for a long time, if he lets King Ling go, I am afraid it will be inappropriate." Besides, if we can only send one King Ling to fight, I'm afraid that those barbarians will think that I am a dignified dynasty and there is no one in the country. ”
As soon as this minister played, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also began to discuss one after another.
The high-ranking Xu Rong always had a cold face and did not speak.
After a long time, Xu Rong's gaze fell on Xu Yang again, and his voice was cold: "I don't know what King Ling wants?" ”
The moment he raised his head, the ridicule in Xu Yang's eyes dissipated, and he changed to his usual bohemian look. He hooked his lips and smiled with a hint of ruffianism: "Your Majesty, as Lord Zhang said, the minister has been in the court for many days, and he really can't adapt to the battlefield career, so it's better to let General Song go, General Song was originally the deputy general of the former Qin general, and then he exposed General Qin, he is really loyal, and he will definitely share the emperor's worries." ”
Everyone in the court was silent when they heard this, and they all understood in their hearts that this Song Songbai was originally General Qin's adjutant general, but he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and it was precisely because he reported General Qin that he got the position of general, and if he went to the battlefield, he would definitely lose the battle.
Sure enough, as soon as King Ling's words fell, he saw General Song standing up tremblingly, and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen once fought with that barbarian, and the barbarian is not only arrogant, but also good at horse fighting, which is really difficult to deal with." ”
Hearing this, Xu Rong's brows furrowed slightly, and a look of disgust appeared in his eyes. After a slight pause, he refocused his gaze on Xu Yang's body, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
After a long time, Xu Rong spoke again: "Wait for Gu to think about it for a while, and then make a decision." ”
As soon as the words fell, the sharp voice of the father-in-law next to him sounded: "Retreat." ”
Xu Rong got up and went to the imperial study, his face was blue along the way, although countless spies came to report that King Yi had the good of Longyang, and since it was good with Longyang, he would definitely not be able to have a queen and inherit the unification, but he still couldn't rest assured. What's more, he always felt that although that person behaved debauched, he couldn't see through his eyes, such a person, his intuition told him that there was a hidden crisis.
