Section 259 Yongning Sets Up a Banquet and Asks the Bureau, and the military adviser talks about three defeats
Shen Mu suddenly fidgeted, he didn't expect Wanqing to be there, let alone that she would bring snacks in person.
"Almond crisp", Shen Mu has eaten it many times recently. I often wonder why girls always like to make such a snack. I still remember Zeng Roushui, Yu Yu, and even Avril, and now it's late sunshine.
Perhaps, the shape of almonds is one of the reasons why girls like it.
Shen Mu hurriedly thanked: "Your Royal Highness Princess Lao!"
Wanqing smiled without saying a word, and sat down on the wine table by herself.
Shen Mu was about to say something to resolve the embarrassment, when he suddenly saw another person walking into the hall with Wanqing behind him.
When Shen Mu saw the person coming, the whole person was stunned for a moment, and then he hurriedly leaned down and knelt down, and congratulated in his mouth: "The last general will meet the saint, long live long live!"
The person who came was Emperor Yongning, he was dressed in a light gray robe today, his white hair was only stripped, and he inserted a flying dragon hairpin, which was very simple, simple like a clerk after retiring from the court, with a scholarly temperament, but without losing the majesty of the Son of Heaven!
Emperor Yongning walked in with his hands in his hand, and said with a "hmm": "Flatten!"
Shen Mu trembled, as if he was on the edge of an abyss.
At the royal night banquet again, Shen Mu had seen Emperor Yongning, and when he saw him again at this time, he felt that this ancient old man was unfathomable. Although his body had slowly stood up, he was thinking about the purpose of Emperor Yongning's trip.
Emperor Yongning saw Shen Mu's silent side, and smiled: "Okay, I will go to the banquet today, Shen doesn't have to be rigid when he joins the army, take a seat!"
Shen Mu accepted the holy decree and sat on the chair gently, but only half of his butt sat on the chair, facing Tianwei, he didn't dare to do how to be comfortable and natural!
Emperor Yongning sat down and beckoned Zhang Xian to sit beside him: "King Yu said to me today that he wanted to set up a banquet to worship the teacher, I thought about who could attract the emperor's attention so much, but I didn't expect it to be you, Shen Mu, Shen join the army!"
When Shen Mu listened to Emperor Yongning's final roll call, his tone was quite solemn, and he secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, this Emperor Yongning was afraid that he was going to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger to give himself a brilliant heavenly might.
Sure enough, Yongning took a sip of tea, and his smile faded away: "The people of Zhenjiang Mansion, the military division of Wulongshan, the shopkeeper of Fuchao Yinzhuang, the salt mine of Dingzhou, the white tea of Xingzhai, the army of Murong Wangfu, and even the people praised by my Nanzhen Fusi and the celebrant supervisor, today I have the opportunity to really see the real face!"
Emperor Yongning came up and unveiled Shen Mu's hand, and the atmosphere in the hall plummeted to freezing point.
As a saint of Yunzhao, it is not difficult to know Shen Mu's identity at all.
Seeing this, Wanqing hurriedly called softly: "Father, the emperor's ......" There was pleading in her eyes.
Today's banquet was nominally set up for King Yu's apprenticeship, but in fact it was a meeting carefully arranged by Emperor Yongning.
Wanqing knew that the saint was back, and what she said was just to palm the eyes of the seventeenth brother, this kind of thing could never be hidden from the saint!
This does not bode well.
Zhang Xian was confused, he didn't know what his father's unprovoked words meant, but he understood the last "Shen Mu", so he raised his voice and said: "Father, this is General Shen who wants to learn from the child, father, you should speak softly, don't let the child's master be frightened." ”
Shen Mu had another thought, since Emperor Yongning knew his identity, he came to the banquet in person, looking at the appearance that he was not asking his own master. Otherwise, the lord of a country, why should he talk about people like himself!
Shen Mu bowed respectfully: "Back to the saint, the grass people are born in the cold, and they start from the grass, if it were not for the battle of Ninghai, the grass people may not be able to enter Beijing in this life, and they will not have the opportunity to see the face of the sky." To be able to speak in the same hall with the saint is really a blessing for the grass people, and it is also because the saint is eclectic and the clouds shine on the peace of the world! Thanks to the love of the saint, the grass people are grateful, and they don't know how to express it, but they can only bow down and do their best to die for the power of the clouds!"
Shen Mu looked at him left and right, and praised the saint again, how could Emperor Yongning not be happy, and secretly said in his heart: This young descendant, he really knows it, he wants to make it difficult for him today, but he can't!
Emperor Yongning smiled heartily: "Okay, I was born in the cold, Shen Mu, I still remember your sentence "Zhou Gong spit and feed, the world returns to the heart", your poem I have asked the painter to engrave the words, and it is hung on the side of my couch! Good words and good sentences...... I wondered why such a talent couldn't enter my Yunzhao court early. Shen Mu, I know that your official title is a trick of the King of Zhennan, why don't I personally give you the position of the commander of Xishan Road to join the army, and receive the third rank?"
As soon as the sage Chrysostom opened, it was a holy decree, and Shen Mu knew that if he refused, he would have committed a heinous crime.
But if you take this errand, won't you be in more danger?
If they don't accept it, Murong Huan and Shen Mu will be guilty of bullying the king, and if they do, Shen Mu will become a chess piece in the temple...... It's a real headache.
Emperor Yongning was quite puzzled when he saw that Shen Mu was silent and did not answer. But if anyone he has seen, if he can ascend to the sky in one step, he will already be grateful and the whole family will celebrate.
As a man, who doesn't want to be a high-ranking official and return home.
This kid is an exception.
The more exceptional they were, the more they aroused the interest of Emperor Yongning.
"What's the matter? Shen joined the army because he disliked this official position being too low......"
Shen Mu got up and knelt down: "Minister, thank you Lord Longen!"
So far, I can only bow my head and be a subordinate. Otherwise, it is still unknown whether you can step out of this restaurant!
Wanqing didn't know Shen Mu's wishes, but when she saw that he was given an official position by his father, she was very happy: "Thank you, father!"
Emperor Yongning smiled with his eyebrows: "I have sealed others as officials, why do I thank my son for the evening sunshine!"
Wanqing blushed shyly: "Father...... You're embarrassing your daughter again......"
Emperor Yongning's robe sleeved and his hands rested on the seat: "Okay, look at your face, it's like a cloud in the evening." Come on, serve food!"
The eunuchs outside the hall listened and hurriedly whispered orders. In Russia, all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas are presented to the tables and chairs one by one.
Emperor Yongning waited for the wine and food to be served, and said: "Today's preparations are a bit hasty, and the ice palms of the Northern Wilderness are too late. Shen Mu, my King Yu is a little impatient, he wants whatever he wants, and he looks like me when I was young, does it make you laugh?"
Shen Mu said respectfully: "Yu Wang Tianhui is smart and has an extraordinary appearance, and the ministers will never dare!"
Emperor Yongning raised his glass and said, "I know, you must be very curious why I came to the banquet...... In the battle of Ninghai, you planned to burn down the outer city, right? The matter of the palace was also your plan for Murong Huan, right? As for the plan to use the Snow Country to encircle Wei and save Zhao, I'm afraid it was also your handiwork, right?"
Shen Mu didn't dare to deceive, leaned over and half-knelt down and said, "The minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!"
Emperor Yongning smiled indifferently: "What is Shen Mu's crime?
Wanqing covered and said, "Father, Mr. Shen, he ...... Xiantong rules, facing his father Tianwei, I don't know how to speak for a while, please don't worry about my father!"
Zhang Xian didn't know why, but he wanted to defend Shen Mu even more, and puffed up his mouth and said: "Father, the master was invited by me, you ......"
Emperor Yongning was puzzled for a while: "When did I say that he was guilty, you two, who is your closest relative!"
Wanqing knew that she was a little speechless, and hurriedly turned her face to Zhang Xian's funny side, letting go of this embarrassment.
This is not the moment for the two of them to interject. The two of them interjected, and it could only get more and more chaotic.
This is probably the standard good intentions for bad deeds.
Shen Mu said continuously: "The minister had the courage to lie about joining the army, but this matter was because the minister was too impulsive at that time, and wanted to see the face of the sky, but the prince of Murong couldn't be stubborn, so he ...... The minister knows that pretending to be an official of the imperial court is really a crime of deceiving the king!
Emperor Yongning leaned back in his chair: "Do you know why I gave you the post of commander-in-chief to join the army? Since you have already claimed to have joined the army, I will give you to join the army, so that the name is deserved, what is the crime?"
When Shen Mu heard this, his heart was a little calm, and he kowtowed again and again: "Minister, I am sincerely afraid, and I am grateful." ”
Emperor Yongning waved his left hand: "Get up." As I have already said, this is a small talk, I just have to speak, you just have to listen and answer. Don't do the courtesy of the monarch again, if this is the case again, my two treasures will probably hate me to death......"
Wanqing was shy, and then when she put the dishes in the bowl in front of Emperor Yongning, she used a voice of "Father, please taste" to resolve the embarrassment!
Emperor Yongning paused for a moment, glanced at Shen Mu, and then said, "Shen Mu, do you want to know why I just asked those questions?"
Shen Mu knew that this was Emperor Yongning's self-examination, and said calmly: "The sage wants to ask Shen Mu about the situation of the two kings of the northwest!"
Emperor Yongning bowed his head, and it was not surprising that Shen Mu could guess his thoughts. After all, if this person couldn't guess what he wanted to ask, how could he be worthy of Murong Huan risking the crime of bullying the monarch to bring to the enclosure palace, how could he withstand the praise of the commander of Nanzhen Fu Sishi, and how could he bear to come here to have dinner with him!
"You're right, I'd love to hear your opinion!"
Shen Mu is respectful rather than obedient, and only by showing himself can he be safe and sound, so that the saint will have a heart of love and talent.
"The minister thinks that the two kings are not to be afraid. Throughout the ages, those who want to start things will be cautious and strategize early. The second king hurriedly raised his troops, and he must have been ill-prepared. The two kings should have three defeats, one of which is the weight of grain and grass, the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. Marching and fighting are not fought by a large number of people, but by economic foundation and logistical support. The ancients said that "build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become kings", emphasizing this point. The two kings chose to move their troops at this time, when the green and yellow were not in stock, and the grain and grass used were hoarded in previous years, and the ministers thought that the grain and grass hoarded by the two kings could barely supply the 400,000 army for more than two months. After two months, if there is no food and grass supply, the army's morale will be in turmoil. ”
Shen Mu paused and continued: "In addition, there is a problem with the attack route chosen by the two kings, and it is a big problem. As the saying goes, if you don't succeed in fortifying a city, you can use the road to cut it down. The two kings chose to die in Maozhou City, and there was an undefeated gift. Although the minister did not come to Maozhou, he knew that this city must be extremely strong. With all due respect, the court has long been wary of the kings, just as Zhenjiang Mansion is stuck in the entrance and exit of Xishan Road, there is a big river and natural dangers, and there are many passes, and Maozhou must be the same. The two kings have many generals, and they can be besieged but not attacked, so they send strange soldiers to quickly intersperse with the surrounding state capitals, as long as they take the left and right states and counties. Maozhou is a lonely city, and it will definitely be self-defeating. What's more, taking the nearby states and counties, and getting food and grass supplies, this is the best choice. The two kings chose to camp step by step, because they were afraid that they would be attacked by the enemy on their backs and would be difficult to support, but they did not know the purpose of "soldiers, treacherous ways!" so that it was dragged down by Maozhou...... This is the second defeat!"
