Chapter 191: The Old and New Xijing Coup (3)
Lu Qingchen was born as a literati, and then took charge of the army, the characteristics of a literati were born in his bones, he thought that the envoys of the Three Kingdoms would not change when they negotiated with him, but he forgot that war has always been about timing, and it happened that Xuan Song seized this opportunity.
Now that the soldiers are approaching the city, Lu Qingchen has to make a choice as soon as possible, the envoy of Yuzhang has given up, the facts are in front of him, Yuzhang has no chance, and the envoy of Jinling is still insisting, after all, their army is almost here.
Lu Qingchen's staff suggested to him that he ask Long Tingfei to send troops to help, but Lu Qingchen refused, and Long Tingfei was powerless even if he had the heart.
Now it seems that Daxuan has the upper hand, but Lu Qingchen is still hesitating, from the bottom of his heart he is more inclined to the Xiao family, Xiao Yu's dependence and respect for the scholar is obvious to all, and although Daxuan maintains enough respect for the scholar, but does not rely on it, they rely more on the talents they cultivate, the poor scholar and the wealthy lord are treated the same in Daxuan.
Lu Qingchen is a traditional person, he believes that Daxuan's practice is to destroy the thousand-year-old system, in his perception that the sergeant doctor is the most important pillar force to rule the Central Plains, and the people are the people, and it is their duty to plant good fields and make good grain.
"Report! General, the enemy army has begun to attack the city! ”
The urgent report outside the city gate made Lu Qingchen not give Lu Qingchen time to continue to hesitate, he sorted out his armor and got up and strode towards the city tower.
The soldiers and horses under the city were very strong, and although their faces were tired, their spirits were very high.
Xuan Song and Tan Ji immediately pointed to the city tower in front of them, their faces relaxed and happy.
"Auxiliary marshal, today's battle is just around the corner for me to declare the unification of the Central Plains!" Tan Ji said excitedly.
"Old Tan, Your Majesty has worked hard for the unification of the Central Plains for more than 20 years, and now you are finally able to step into the north of the Great River, it is really a blessing for me to be able to follow Your Majesty and make such an immortal achievement!" Xuan Song looked at the ancient and dilapidated city wall and relieved the dull atmosphere hidden in his chest for many years, and Meng Zhao's death had been pressing him back then.
"Yes! Your Majesty has made a big decision this time, the prince, the king of Hanzhong, Qingshuai, the Duke of Beichuan, plus you and me, the generals of the half dynasty have arrived, if you can't take Kaifeng, I Tan Ji has no face to meet Your Majesty's kindness. Tan Ji said with emotion.
Xuan Song nodded vigorously in approval, and then said: "Old Tan, let's join the circle, don't give Lu Qingchen a chance, take Kaifeng as soon as possible, otherwise Teng Han will arrive." ”
Tan Ji stopped talking, just arched his hand, turned the horse and left, Xuansong sat in the Chinese army, and Tan Ji commanded Kaifeng, which was a manifestation of determination and strength.
Just when he was encircling Kaifeng, Quan Qing in Xijing secretly summoned Li Bow.
"Li Gongzi, Ling Zun has figured it out?" Quan Qing's eyes are picked, and the style is infinite.
Li Bow suddenly indulged in it, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said: "My father said that he would fully support His Highness to succeed, and Li Jing on the right side of Longyou has basically controlled it, and the day Your Majesty returns to Luan is the time to succeed." ”
"Hahaha!" The silver bell-like laughter was very stinging for Li Gong, too tempting, Quan Qing's figure, a smile was too seductive, and she just heard her say: "Then thank you for your support for this palace." ”
"Don't dare, the Li clan will do their best." Before I knew it, I was already sweating profusely, and this woman was too abrasive.
Finally got this woman, bowed out of the palace, and the servant hurriedly caught up.
He bowed and blushed and said, "You go and get the Wu Niang of Chunfeng Lou back to the house, the master is very angry today, and the master will have a big reward for serving well!" ”
The little guy who grew up with him immediately understood what it meant, and ran away as soon as he slipped away.
Meng Yan couldn't stay in Chengdu anymore, he was having a temper with Gu Qingfeng, the waste paper on the table was already scattered all over the ground, and there were three big characters on each piece of paper "I want to go", and there were also three words "disagree" from Juanxiu Xiaokai.
Gu Qingfeng was very patient, Meng Yan wrote a letter and she signed it, this repeated action has lasted for more than an hour, only Yan Que was on duty outside the hall, and Yan Que sent people away early when Meng Yan began to lose his temper.
Meng Yan finally took the lead in surrendering, threw the pen, lay on his back on the chair and did not move, Gu Qingfeng picked up the pen and put it back in place with a slight lift of his eyebrows, and said softly: "Your Majesty, are you tired?" If we're tired, let's rest for a while and continue later? ”
"Tell me, what conditions can I be released?" Meng Yan looked like a rooster was defeated.
"Don't think about it, even if the concubines agree, the courtiers won't allow it, there are many famous generals in my court, and there are many important ministers on the Heluo battlefield alone to do things for you, where do you need you?" Gu Qingfeng said a little proudly.
"Shall I go out on patrol? Is Xichuan still looking for Zhuge Xingchen? Shall I help the head office? Meng Yan retreated and deliberated.
"How did you get the four of them to do with themselves?" Gu Qingfeng retorted.
Meng Yan stood up suddenly, and then sat down and said playfully: "I don't care, I just want to get out of Chengdu, and if I don't go out, I'll suffocate to death!" ”
Gu Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, the concubine will accompany you to Emei Mountain?" ”
This is perfunctory, Meng Yan stiffened on the chair like a corpse and didn't move, and it didn't work to let Gu Qingfeng tease, but he didn't react, Gu Qingfeng was quite helpless, and said: "Yanque, go and ask the imperial doctor, Your Majesty is sick!" ”
"Obey the order!" Yan Que's answer was uncompromising.
I saw Meng Yanteng get up and shout: "Yanque, you come back!" Do you understand the obedience and listening? ”
Yan Que half-knelt on the ground and didn't speak, Gu Qingfeng stood up and said, "General Yan, don't pay attention to Your Majesty, you go and prepare, Luan's travel is not a trivial matter." ”
Yan Que immediately left the palace after replying with a glance, but the careful Gu Qingfeng still found that Yan Que secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Meng Yan suddenly jumped over, hugged Gu Qingfeng, spun around, and said happily: "I know that you have already arranged it, where are we going?" ”
Gu Qingfeng was taken aback, gently patted Meng Yan's shoulder and said, "Quickly let me go!" ”
Meng Yan hugged him tighter, Gu Qingfeng was helpless, the behavior of such a child at such an age was really shy, but Meng Yan never cared about this, so he said helplessly: "Let's go to Jiujiang first, and then go to Jiangxia." ”
Although he was not satisfied, he was able to go out anyway, which was good, so he slowly put Gu Qingfeng down and said, "You mean to prepare for the marriage of the two girls?" ”
"With this meaning, the girls are all older, the attitude of Zhou Ce and Huo Youjian is very important, I don't have the practice of giving marriage, I still have to understand their mentality, of course, I went to Jiujiang and Jiangxia to give Xiao Yu and Zhong Roulan some pressure."
Meng Yan spread his hands and said: "Understood, otherwise how could you prepare for Luan with great fanfare, you still rarely do such a swaggering thing to disturb the people." ”
"It is the duty of the concubine to prepare for Luan's trip, but the matter of staying in Chengdu and the accompanying matter still have to be decided by you." Gu Qingfeng never crossed the line.
Meng Yan thought for a while and said: "King Yong stays behind, King Xiang, King Dongchuan County, Duke Zhuo, and Ye Bohuai accompany him, and Gu Yanfeng, Yanlan, Quartz, and Deng Ang are auxiliary politicians. ”
Gu Qingfeng frowned, and asked puzzledly, "Is Deng Ang's auxiliary government appropriate?" He is recuperating in Chengdu, but his father Deng Gong is also in Chengdu, is it appropriate? ”
"There's nothing inappropriate, Zhuo Gong and his gang of old people should also rest, Deng Ang's gang should also exercise, I wanted to take the quartz away, but the current rotating governor is Da Xi Qianbi, I'm still a little worried." Meng Yan was very open-minded.
"Do you want Yanlan to take over Shangshutai?" Gu Qingfeng discovered Meng Yan's intentions between the lines.
Meng Yan didn't intend to hide it, and said directly: "It's all old people, whoever takes charge of Shangshutai will be bound by love, Yanlan is different, he is more suitable, and the people in the cabinet have grown well in recent years, and they only need to experience the battlefield atmosphere to be useful, and this time is just an opportunity." ”
"Okay, since you have arranged for concubines, you won't say anything more, but let Yi'er stay behind and concubines have opinions." Gu Qingfeng's tone was firm.
"What are you worried about? The two things about their brothers were deliberately done by us. Meng Yan tilted his head and asked.
"It's not because of this, it's not that I'm worried about what will happen to Yi'er, if you want to make those concubines who jump out think it's better to leave them a Chengdu that looks full of loopholes."
Meng Yan fell into deep thought, paced back and forth, and said for a while before saying: "What you said is right, then let Ke'er stay in Chengdu, and let Yi'er go to Xichuan to practice." ”
During the Heluo Rebellion, Emperor Xuan took the queen and a number of important ministers to inspect all parts of Daxuan, and it was surprising that the one left behind in Chengdu turned out to be Meng Jingke, the king of Shu who had just walked.
On the fourth day after Luan Jia's departure, Deng Ang and other auxiliary ministers all gathered at the yamen of the two houses to worry about it.
Deng Ang was still young and couldn't hold back, and took the lead in speaking: "Lord Zhongtang, the bandits in Zhaonan have been plagued for many years, and I suggest that they be directly attacked with heavy troops to exterminate them." The words were full of dissatisfaction with Jingyi.
"Yingshuai, what is your opinion on Yan Lingjun?" Gu Yanfeng didn't pay attention to Deng Ang, this kid was too uninteresting, he had the lowest status among the four, but he never stopped when he spoke.
After the two glanced at each other, Yan Lan arched his hand at Gu Yanfeng and said: "Zhongtang, I thought it was not appropriate to mobilize troops on a large scale now, General Jing has been operating in Zhaonan for many years, since he has not asked the court for help, it means that everything is still in his control." ”
This is directly scolding Deng Ang, just when Deng Ang wanted to refute, Yan Lan continued: "But what General Deng said is also reasonable, the bandits in southern Zhaonan have been plagued for many years, and they have not been able to form support for western Sichuan, and most of the troops in southern Sichuan have been evacuated by the two places, I think that the reserve army in southern Sichuan should be replenished as soon as possible." ”
"Lingjun's move is very good, now His Majesty and Niangniang Luan are out on patrol, the prince and King Yong are supervising the battle in Hanzhong and western Sichuan respectively, and the Hushuai and Jiujiang areas must also ensure that the soldiers and horses are standing up, and the commander thinks that the focus now is to strengthen the reserve army, and as for the Zhaonan bandits, they can be annihilated in one fell swoop after the battle of Kaifeng is over." Quartz continued with Yan Lan's words.
Gu Yanfeng glanced at Deng Ang, saw that his chest was rising and falling a lot, and said: "General Deng, the affairs of the marshal in the Dadu Governor's Mansion are relatively busy, why don't you do the things of enriching the reserve army?" ”
Where is Deng Ang willing, but the three pairs of eyes are staring at him, and they are all old-timers, so they can only bite the bullet and follow this boring thing in his eyes.
He casually arched his hand and said, "The last general obeys!" ”
