So, the princes and ministers who had just returned to the palace for a long time were summoned into the palace again.

This news is undoubtedly a muffled thunder for the Daxing Dynasty, it comes quickly and fiercely and it is impossible to guard, the guard will be seriously injured, and naturally someone will take over, so some ministers proposed, "Marquis Wucheng has rich experience in warfare, and has fought side by side with the emperor many times, although he has not been on the battlefield again for many years, but his kung fu has never fallen, and the minister thinks that he can take on this heavy responsibility." ”

The emperor glanced at the recommended officials and silently wrote them down.

Then someone recommended Dingguo Gong, and someone recommended Su Yuanhou.

Marquis Wu Cheng took the initiative to ask for his life, "Your Majesty, if the minister can lead the troops, he will definitely be able to recapture Ganzhou within half a month, and the minister is willing to guarantee the head of the minister." ”

The emperor's expression was a relief, "Don't you know your skills?" But I have other plans for you. ”

Wu Chenghou stopped talking suddenly, there are other arrangements? Could it be that he was going to Youzhou to escort grain and grass?

Next, the ministers in the palace continued to chatter, and after a long time, the emperor finally made a final decision.

"The matter of Ganzhou will be handed over to the Marquis of Suyuan, after all, the Marquis of Suyuan has fought against the Xirong State and has rich experience.

Can Marquis Su Yuan be confident that he will take Ganzhou City within half a month? ”

Marquis Su Yuan immediately came out of the ranks: "Back to the emperor, the ministers will not disgrace their lives." ”

"Okay, the proposed decree, Feng Su Yuanhou is the general of the expedition to the west, and immediately set off and go to Ganzhou to collect the lost territory. The 150,000 troops under the original General Liu were all under the command of General Zhengxi. ”

After that, the emperor handed over a piece of tiger talisman to Marquis Su Yuan, who stepped forward to take the tiger talisman, and then saluted and retired.

Next is the matter of grain and grass, half of the grain and grass that was originally going to be sent to Youzhou was to be sent to Xirong, but there was a disagreement among the people who sent the grain and grass.

The emperor originally wanted to send a military general to be responsible for escorting grain and grass, but the prince came out to ask for orders to go to Youzhou to deliver grain, and the prince came out of the princess and discussed with the staff for a long time, feeling that the princess's proposal was very good, and the prince went to Youzhou There are absolutely advantages and disadvantages, who would have thought that only a few hours have passed, and Xirong has started a war with Daxing Dynasty again.

Originally, if the county lord of Furou didn't reconcile with Xiao Shu, the Marquis of Su Yuan should be his own person, and now it would be good if he didn't make a feud, so he naturally had to seize the errand of escorting grain and grass to Youzhou, otherwise how could he get closer to Uncle Zhanhuang?

The emperor understood the prince's mind almost without thinking about it, but he still persuaded: "There are no eyes on the battlefield, can the prince think clearly?" ”

The prince said: "Erchen has thought clearly, the generals are fighting on the front line, Erchen as the prince naturally has to contribute to the Daxing Dynasty, the supply of grain and grass on the front line is the top priority, and the son will be able to safely transport the grain and grass to Youzhou within the specified time."

The emperor thought about it for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, then it's up to you, Dingguo Gong will go to Youzhou with the prince, and the two of you will prepare for the escort officer and set off tomorrow." ”

Dingguo Gong hurriedly came out of the ranks, saluted and received the order, and saluted the prince, and both the prince and the prince retreated to prepare.

After the two left, the seventh prince took the initiative to ask for an order to go to Ganzhou to transport grain and grass, the emperor looked at the ministers in the palace, and saw that a few people came out to echo the old seven's wishes, and also arranged for him an experienced veteran to go to Ganzhou to transport grain and grass.

Xirong and Beiliang fought against Daxing together, which no one would believe if there was no cat, the emperor was worried, a few days ago a batch of grain and grass was raised, and then we had to continue to raise, fortunately, not long after the new grain came down, every family had grain in stock, so there was no need to worry about not being able to buy food.

But the people will panic for sure.

Especially after Xirong captured the city of Ganzhou, the focus of the people's discussion after tea and dinner was almost all about this matter.

"Then Prince Xirong is too much of a thing, Concubine Xue is his own sister, didn't he think that once the war started, Concubine Xue's status would be worried?"

"Hey, in order to complete the hegemony of the ambition, what is a sister...... "My father can be killed, not to mention just sacrificing a sister, the royal family is the least affectionate place."

"Now, the Daxing Dynasty is not having a good time, the two countries are waging war against us at the same time, and I don't know when this war will end?"

"There is a war king in Youzhou City, there is definitely no need to worry about this, General Liu was seriously injured by Prince Xirong, although Marquis Su Yuan took over the position of General Liu, but the morale must be low, it is estimated that in a few months, this battle will not end so easily."

"My family has a young son who joined the army in Youzhou, and his mother has been crying to death for the past two days."

"Who hasn't had a kid join the army yet, it's useless to cry, I just hope that the war will end as soon as possible, and only the common people will suffer.

I just bought a bag of grain in the morning, and it went up another three cents per catty. ”

"Hey, I also bought it in the morning, our family bought a bag of it, anyway, there is spare money at home, so prepare a little more, and I can't afford to suffer a loss."

……

The capital of the Northern Liang Kingdom.

Inside the Royal Palace.

The old emperor really didn't expect that the eldest son, who had been missing for many days, would come back by himself, Chu Heyu's explanation for this was that he was scattered in the chaos, and after leaving the border, he rushed back to the capital by himself, because he was penniless, so he was delayed on the road for a few days, and he didn't meet any of the prime ministers.

After Chu Heyu returned to the palace, he was naturally attacked by other princes, and he didn't refute it, but the princes who looked for him were attacked the next day, and it was still irreparable.

First of all, the fifth prince was injured while sleeping with his own woman, and he will not be humane from then on.

Then the three princes were reported to have hidden dragon robes, the emperor did not believe it, but he still ordered someone to inspect the Three Princes' Mansion, and as a result, those soldiers not only found the dragon robe, but also found evidence that the three princes colluded with the minister and accepted nearly one million taels of silver.

The emperor looked at the evidence and was furious, the third prince was thrown into prison, in fact, 90% of the secret dragon robe is fake, the old emperor didn't believe it at all, but colluded with nearly half of the important ministers in the court, and accepted bribes, which the old emperor couldn't bear.

Beiliang is not as rich as Daxing, the annual financial income is not as good as half of Daxing, so much silver should have gone into the treasury, but it turned out to be in the pocket of the third child's private person, and this is only part of it, more I don't know where the third flower went, where would the emperor let the three princes go?

The three princes were confined in the prince's mansion, and all the assets in the palace were filled into the treasury, in short, the three princes were finished.

In addition, the war between Beiliang and Daxing also entered a stalemate.

Youzhou City has been handed over to Jiang Chen to be responsible, and three or four small battles have been fought these days, both sides have won and lost, but the losses are not large, and the Northern Liang people have defeated Jiang Chen and will not send people to chase them, in case they fall into the treacherous tricks of the Northern Liang people.

At this time, the king of war was camped outside Raozhou City, and he was thinking about how to clean up the Northern Liang people in Raozhou City.

There are about 80,000 Northern Liang soldiers in the city, and there is a steady stream of Northern Liang soldiers outside the North City Gate.
