After this matter was decided, Fu Dong and Yu Nian led an army of 100,000 to the west to support and resist the Xia army. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On this day, Xia Wanfeng came to Chengguang Hall to meet Xi Ze, Xi Ze sent out all the palace people standing in the hall, sat at the top, and looked at Xia Wanfeng deeply.

Xia Wanfeng said: "Emperor Shengming, Fu instigated the emperor to send the star guard to the west, I'm afraid he has other plans!" ”

Xi Ze smiled coldly: "The wolf ambition of the Fu clan has long been revealed, they want to take advantage of the war accident to support the defense of the stars, how can I fall for their plan!" The Xia army attacked with poison, and before the battle was fought, a lot of our troops were consumed, and all the generals were in danger, and few of them really dared to face the battle, which was really disappointing to me! ”

Xia Wanfeng frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that they want to take this opportunity to get rid of the star guard?" That's why the star is so unanimously recommended as the head coach? ”

Xi Ze continued to sneer: "What kind of calculation did the Fu family make, don't I know it in my heart? Since Fu Dong had made military exploits in the southwest and was familiar with the situation in the west, I naturally sent him and promised a heavy reward, as long as he could come back with his military exploits, I would definitely be rewarded! Besides, Xiao Guo's letter of requesting the alliance to fight against the Xia army has been delivered to me, and there shouldn't be too much of a problem in the western war! ”

Xia Wanfeng raised her eyebrows: "Xiao Guo has already allied with our army?" This is really good, the two armies are flanked and resisted together, and the chances of the Xia army winning are much smaller! It's just that the emperor has promised Fu Dong too many rewards, if he really succeeds in coming back this time, I am afraid that his merits will be high, and the Fu family will only be more rampant after the end! ”

Xi Ze smiled: "You don't have to worry, no matter whether he has made this battle exploit or not, the Fu family is the same rampant, besides, I sent a confidant imperial doctor to go and tell him to wait for the opportunity to move, Fu Dong will not come back this time!" ”

When Xia Wanfeng heard this, her eyes lit up: "It turns out that the emperor has already made arrangements, my emperor is Shengming!" If all this can be blamed on Xia Jun this time, the Fu family will not be able to find fault! ”

Xi Ze sneered: "Isn't he a military general?" Wouldn't it be the best ending for him to die on the battlefield? What can the Fu family find wrong! So, I have my own arrangements, you don't have to worry, right now, I have one more thing to do, I want you to do it secretly! ”

Xia Wanfeng was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Please also ask the emperor to make it clear!" ”

Xi Ze looked at Xia Wanfeng deeply, lowered his voice and said: "I order you to go to Huzhou, Wanzhou and Ruzhou immediately, that is, several prefectures and counties around the capital, and secretly mobilize the most elite troops of these three prefectures and counties to be secretly stationed in the suburbs of Gyeonggi. ”

Xi Ze opened the box on the table, took out the tiger talisman and the secret decree from the box and handed it to Xia Wanfeng, and said: "You can put away the tiger talisman for the transfer of troops, in addition, this is a secret decree written to the Taishou of these three states and counties, you secretly declare the decree, if there is anyone who does not obey, you will be killed immediately!" ”

Xia Wanfeng cautiously took the tiger talisman and the secret decree, carefully put it away, and asked: "The emperor can rest assured, it's just that this time the emperor transferred troops, how many troops are he going to let his ministers transfer?" ”

Xi Ze closed his eyes, carefully calculated the situation in front of him, knocked on the table with his right hand unconsciously, and said after a moment of silence: "The forbidden army in the palace has a total of 20,000, which is led by Fu Dong, and it may not be loyal to me, the Imperial Forest Army is personally led by me, they are all well-trained elite soldiers, they can block ten with one, but there are only five thousand, and the number of troops in the hands of the star guard is 20,000, you can send another 20,000 elite soldiers into the suburbs of Gyeonggi, remember, after the elite soldiers enter the suburbs of Gyeonggi, they cannot wear military uniforms, they must pretend to be ordinary farmers to farm in the suburbs, The message must not be leaked! ”

Xia Wanfeng replied cautiously: "The minister obeys the order, please rest assured!" ”

Xi Ze suddenly opened his eyes, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he asked directly: "Wan Feng, if Fu Dong really dies in the west, I am afraid that Fu and Fu will have to confront each other head-on, are you ready?" ”

Xia Wanfeng said: "The minister is always ready!" ”

Xi Ze suddenly asked, "How many elite soldiers have you trained?" ”

Xia Wanfeng was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "The emperor is Mingjian, the ministers are trained to protect the guards of the Xia Mansion, not elite soldiers, the ministers are not military generals, without the emperor's orders, how dare the ministers train the army privately, the ministers are loyal to the emperor, and they will never dare to do such a rebellious thing!" ”

Xi Ze smiled, as if the clouds were light and light, he said: "Wan Feng, you don't have to be in a hurry to show your loyalty, I naturally believe in your loyalty, but I am a little worried, I want to ask you about your specific situation, after you go back, you must strengthen the guards, protect yourself, beware of someone sending assassins to assassinate, at the same time, you must also protect the safety of Qi Ye, this is an extraordinary time, you must not take it lightly!" ”

Since the body of the night was recuperated, he returned to the summer mansion to live. So here, Xi Ze told Xia Wanfeng to protect the safety of the night.

Xia Wanfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Thank you for the emperor's reminder, you must be more careful when you go back!" ”

Xi Ze nodded and said, "You also remind Shouxing to strengthen his vigilance, and he can't relax his vigilance at night, and be ready to deal with it at any time!" ”

Xia Wanfeng replied loudly: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Xi Ze was very satisfied, and said: "You will leave tomorrow to handle the transfer of troops, and tomorrow I will claim to the outside world that I will send you out of Beijing to raise food and grass, you act carefully, you must avoid all eyes and ears!" ”

Xia Wanfeng said loudly: "The minister obeys the order, the emperor can rest assured!" ”

The next day, Xi Ze issued an order to send the right prime minister Xia Wanfeng out of the capital to raise grain and grass, and Xia Wanfeng took the most elite guards out of the capital early in the morning.

At the beginning of March of the sixth year of Daxing, a war report came from the west, and Fu Dong died on the battlefield in the war against Xia due to excessive exhaustion.

When Xi Ze received the battle report, he was naturally happy in his heart, but he did not show anything on his face, but immediately posthumously named Fu Dong as the king of Nan, and ordered the western generals to transport Fu Dong's body back to the imperial capital for burial, and rewarded a lot of things to comfort the Fu family, and issued an order to canonize Xiang Shuyi as a concubine, and the kind words comforted a lot.

On this day, Xi Ze stayed in Fenghua Palace.

The next day, Xi Ze came to Weiyang Palace, and after dinner, Xi Ze sent off the palace people and came to the dormitory to sit down.

Yun Tian looked at Xi Ze gently, and said: "During this time, when the war was going on in the west, you seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but there were too many political affairs, and you didn't have time to rest?" ”

Xi Ze smiled: "You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine!" ”

Yun Qian frowned slightly, and said: "Don't be too tired, let the people below do some unimportant things, don't put so much pressure on yourself, the body is heavy, without the body, everything is empty, and it's useless!" ”

Xi Ze sighed and said, "It's okay, now that Fu Dongzhan is dead, I can be regarded as getting rid of the trouble in my heart, and of course I won't be as nervous as before!" (To be continued.) )
