Chapter 168: The Wind Fills the Building
"Bastard," Zheng Qingluan stretched out his hand and threw the holy decree in his hand directly to the ground, "It's okay to transfer the Xiao family's army, but can you also use the Ming decree to send it over with such a force, just send an edict to the world, those adults in the court are eating dry food, and their brains were kicked by a donkey."
"The master dissipates his anger" Baiyi stepped forward to stroke Zheng Qingluan's back, knowing that the master was really angry this time. I don't blame the master for being angry, it's really that these people don't have a score, and the deployment of troops is absolutely a confidential matter, so arrogantly sent from the capital to the border city, isn't this the hole card to the enemy to show the truth, even she understands this truth, I don't believe those ministers don't understand
Li Zhiqian has always been known for his elegance, and rarely scolds his mother, and he trembles angrily, "What do you want to do, those bastards who just move their mouths, do you know, this will make us completely passive." It's not impossible to secretly transfer 50,000 horses, as long as we arrange it well, there will be no big problems in the border city. But now, I'm afraid that the whole world knows that the border cities are short of troops, so how can they rush over?"
"Now, no matter how it is arranged, the weakness of our insufficient troops and the excessively long front has been exposed to the forefront. Not only is the border city difficult to defend, but Ping'an Prefecture is also difficult, I don't believe that Beihu will only watch dryly, and will not come up to get a piece of the pie. Liu Zhike sneered, "What kind of mind is the person above, the big guy also knows it in his heart." ”
"This bit of malice is not something that only exists now," Yang Zhihe frowned, "What I'm afraid of is that our 50,000 horses will be stationed in Ping'an Prefecture, which will cause a chain reaction." Don't forget, the dog Rong also has a part of the border with Ping'an Prefecture, and our 50,000 army is pressing the border, and the dog Rong will not react. It is estimated that before we can garrison the army, they will already send troops over. Damn, it's not an enemy, once the war starts, we have to face the pressure of the three parties at the same time, and the rear still wants to stab the knife from time to time. This battle can't be fought."
Zheng Qingluan listened to the words of a few people, but his heart slowly calmed down. Several of them are veterans and see the problem accurately and sharply. Zheng Qingluan also fully agreed with their words.
But when she looked back, she was a little confused. Emperor Tai'an will not be good and put his true thoughts about Xiao Jiajun so on the surface. This is ridiculous and stupid today.
Zheng Qingluan was almost certain that Emperor Tai'an did not have a good intention to draw troops. But the Holy Decree was never his intention, and this self-righteous emperor was put on the table by people in the shadows again. not only put the Xiao family army in danger, but more seriously, it provoked the dissatisfaction of the Xiao family army officers and soldiers. This was simply fatal to the imperial court.
So where should Xiao Jiajun go?
Zheng Qingluan pacified the three generals and told them to actively prepare for battle and wait for orders.
The three of them retreated, only to find that the master did not follow the holy decree and planned to send troops to Ping'an Prefecture. The three of them looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In their eyes, the decree is a puphensical matter, and it is not a thing
"Doesn't the master send troops" Baiyi asked in a low voice, "The eldest princess and the Zheng family are both in Beijing." If the matter of our resistance to the decree spreads to the capital, the emperor's head will be hot, and it will be troublesome. ”
Zheng Qingluan nodded, "You're right, but I know it's a trap, I can't push my brothers into the pit." ”
"Then what should I do" Baiyi also frowned, "You can't go in and out"
"You called Xiao Er. Zheng Qingluan gritted his teeth, and could only be presumptuous again.
Baiyi turned around and went out, his steps seemed a little hurried. Xiao Er came quickly, he should have come running. He looked at Zheng Qingluan's eyes full of worry, "The master just orders, I'll do it immediately."
"I'll have an excerpt in a while, Mingfa Beijing. You arranged for our own people to secretly escort the excerpt into Beijing safely. Zheng Qingluan began to sharpen the ink, "I'm afraid that the fold will be replaced on the road." ”
"Okay" Xiao Er turned around and left, "I'll arrange it." ”
When Xiao Er turned back, he took the fold handed over by Zheng Qingluan, opened it and looked at it, almost not scared to death. This paper is full of insults to the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and even insinuations, pointing directly at the emperor on the dragon chair.
"Master" Xiao Er's head was sweating, "I really want to send this explicitly." ”
"Some people are just cheap, you are respectful to him, he is always suspicious that you harbor evil intentions, you don't lie to him, but he thinks you are true temperament. Zheng Qingluan had a cold face, "Since this is the case, then what's the matter with scolding that the court has made such a big mistake, we have to swallow our anger, do you think he thinks that we have endured it so far, he must be planning something." ”
"The master scolded him, and he thought that we had sent out our anger. On the contrary, it is not a big deal. Xiao Er asked uncertainly.
"That's right," Zheng Qingluan sneered, "It's such a strange brain circuit." ”
Therefore, the eldest prince took the initiative not to move and dared to quarrel with the emperor, Xiao Yunfeng dared to be unruly in front of the emperor, and Prince Rui is said to often snort coldly at the emperor. The style of these people who know the emperor is actually a weather vane. It's just that ordinary people don't have the courage to do this.
"Understood" Xiao Er nodded, "As long as the emperor is relieved, the talents of the eldest princess and the Zheng family are safe." ”
Zheng Qingluan nodded, then smiled bitterly, and waved his hand to let Xiao Er go down, "Let's do it immediately." ”
The plan has to be overturned and started again, Zheng Qingluan stroked her forehead, if she continues like this, she will definitely not live long, it is too much effort.
Let Baiyi invite the three generals over again, and we have to continue to discuss.
Baiyi went out, and kicked the holy decree into the corner with his foot, his eyes full of disgust.
Emperor Tai'an has been in a good mood for the past two days. No matter how fierce the trouble was in the north, there were 100,000 Xiao family troops on their backs, which had little impact on the imperial court. And the money that Xiao Yunfeng seized from the pirates has now arrived in the capital. For the treasury that is about to dry up to the bottom, the seizure sent by Xiao Yunfeng is simply timely rain Emperor Tai'an felt that for a while, the sky was blue, the grass was green, the concubines in the harem were more delicate, and even the uneasy sons looked much cuter.
As soon as the mood is good, even the appetite is better. Thinking of the silver and white fish produced in Xishan, the eldest princess's territory, I am hungry again.
I'm afraid the eldest princess is dissatisfied with the matter of drawing troops this time. He didn't feel comfortable coming to him.
I just wanted to go out of the palace to find Prince Rui, go shopping, and listen to music. I saw Prince Rui come in with a calm face.
Emperor Tai'an chuckled in his heart, what happened here
"Uncle Huang, what's wrong" Emperor Tai'an saw that this uncle's eyes were not good, and his anger weakened by two points, "Who made you angry, I will be angry for you"
"Dispatch 50,000 horses from the Xiao family's army," Prince Rui said with a suppressed anger.
"Uncle Huang" Emperor Tai'an also sank his face, this matter has been decided, and the will has been issued, and he still keeps thinking about what it means, and his tone also cooled, "Fifty thousand is a bit much, but the safety of Ping'an Prefecture cannot be lost." I did this to be foolproof. I have a clear conscience, and I am not afraid of criticism. ”
Prince Rui was angry, "You didn't say how many troops were drawn, you let me finish speaking." ”
Emperor Tai'an was also startled when he saw that Prince Rui's face was indeed not good-looking, "Don't worry, you speak slowly." "It's really angry with Uncle Huang, and he can't bear it.
"You've sent down the matter of the troops," Prince Rui confirmed in a low voice.
"No," Emperor Tai'an said with a smile, "I'm not a stupid soldier, and you've made everything clear, and I'm not a faint king." ”
Prince Rui sneered twice, and looked at the emperor with complicated eyes.
Emperor Tai'an finally realized something, he looked at Prince Rui in surprise, "No, how can it be a clear order?"
"It's really not you," Prince Rui looked inquiring.
"Unless I'm crazy," Emperor Tai'an's face turned pale, "It is rumored that the will of the Cabinet and the Military Aircraft Department was planned by them, I want to ask what they want to do"
Prince Rui's eyes closed fiercely, "Do you still need to ask, those officials won't make such a big mistake with their eyes closed, this is a calculation." ”
"Who" Emperor Tai'an was about to split, "it is the remnants of the previous dynasty again"
"I've already said that I should first understand the things around me and then think about other things. Prince Rui gasped, "You go in one ear and out the other." Now it's a good thing, the emperor of a dignified country, even the holy decree has been manipulated. Do I have to be glad that people didn't come more ruthlessly? I wouldn't be surprised if a Zen edict suddenly came out one day. ”
Emperor Tai'an sat on the chair dejectedly, "I didn't expect their hands to stretch out so long"
"I didn't expect that it was just in the border city, you felt that everything was worry-free, and the decree was issued for so many days, and we didn't receive any news, just think about it, you should know how many secret hands are hidden around us. Prince Rui sneered, "What is on your side naturally has to be used at a critical time, just like the first emperor." If you don't move, it's a foregone conclusion. ”
Prince Rui's words made Emperor Tai'an say in a cold sweat, and he knew that this was not alarmist. But the more true it is, the more unsettling it is. "Now, we have to stabilize the border city first. The fierceness in Emperor Tai'an's eyes flashed, "Let the Praetorian Guards surround the Zheng family first"
"Who are you going to surround around" The eldest princess of Jiangyang walked in with a frosty face, "Why don't you just surround me"
"Nonsense" Emperor Tai'an instantly exploded, "Military affairs, how can you speak"
The eldest princess of Jiangyang picked up the fold on the imperial case and threw it towards Emperor Tai'an, "I don't want to make up for the mistake, just thinking about coercion, is this something that can be coerced, people want to fight, they want to contribute, you force others, can people do their best?"
"Give me a stop," Prince Rui shuddered angrily.
At this time, the palace talent came in tremblingly and reported, "The border city is eight hundred miles expedited, and it is presented to the emperor." ”
Emperor Tai'an hurriedly took it, opened it, and let out a sigh of relief
