Chapter 249: You stay in Jiankang and keep an eye on someone for me
A chuckle suddenly came from behind the screen.
A lazy and indifferent female voice then sounded: "Avoid war and seek peace, slowly figure it out...... But do you have to wait until the iron cavalry of the northerners is under the city of Jiankang, and then slowly try to figure it out? By then, will it be too late? ”
The crowd looked.
Through the tulle embroidered screen, it can be vaguely seen that the beauty in gorgeous clothes and high crowns is sitting on the Hu bed, gently shaking the fan with one hand, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are contemptuous and cold.
It is the eldest princess Sima Bao makeup.
The old man's expression was uneasy: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the eldest princess is just listening, but she still dares to express her own opinions, but do you take the ancestral training in your eyes?!" The country in my south was probably defeated like this! ”
Cui Yuan, the head of the Cui family, was not happy.
The eldest princess is his wife, so naturally there is no reason for others to scold him in public, otherwise he will be hit in the face.
He stroked a jade Ruyi: "The family and country are scattered, embattled on all sides, seeing that it is the end of the road, Wei Lao is still in the mood to worry about such trivial things as whether the harem can do politics...... As for how the country is gone, why should Wei Lao blame women? If you have the ability, you can put on your horse and go into battle to kill the enemy. ”
"I ...... I'm already in the year of the sixtieth year, how can I go into battle to kill the enemy?! ”
"Lian Po is still able to eat, in the year of Wei Lao's sixtieth year, why can't he go into battle to kill the enemy?"
"You-"
Seeing that the imperial study was plunged into a meaningless quarrel, a noisy and sharp piano sound suddenly pierced the air.
Everyone was silent, and they all followed the sound of the piano.
Xiao Heng sat upright, his fingertips holding down the gently trembling strings.
He raised his eyes: "Xihai City is located at the junction of the north and the south, and the place where the rivers converge, so it cannot be easily handed over. In my opinion, it is time to send troops north and retake the city. ”
"It's easy for you to say, this time the northern army is going south, and it must have made all the preparations! If we can't beat it, this country will really be gone! Who can afford to lose the country at that time?! Can Xiao Jungong afford it?! ”
"Makes sense! Now our army is still weaker than the north, and rashly sending troops will only lead to defeat, so it is better to simply cut the land and sue for peace, don't they want silk, grain and gold? Give them that is! ”
“……”
For a time, the officials who advocated seeking peace were in collusion and crowded Xiao Heng one after another.
In the huge imperial court, only the officials of the Cui family and the Xiao family faction did not speak.
Xiao Heng plucked the strings for a while, as if he noticed something, and suddenly glanced at the corner.
The thin and introverted young man sat quietly beside the flowers.
The pottery plate on the flower table is inserted with plants such as flower leaf holly, bamboo, Nantian bamboo, etc., the young man is full of clear clothes, and the skin is very fair, and the hand that rests on several cases is slender like jade, when sitting there, there is a little bit of the unparalleled taste of the child.
It's Cui Shen.
He has not yet entered the palace, and this time he only came to the palace with his father.
Facing Xiao Heng's gaze, he smiled mildly and said softly: "I also thought that it was better to fight." ”
The study was silent, and his voice was particularly abrupt.
Wei Lao immediately scolded: "Where did you come from, little rabbit cub, what do you know, what kind of battle-"
Before he finished speaking, he noticed that the other party was Cui Shen, the son-in-law of the Cui family, and he hurriedly silenced him.
Everyone didn't expect that the Cui family also supported the Northern Expedition, so the voice of avoiding war and seeking peace couldn't help but weaken.
Cui Shen was unhurried: "Although I have never participated in the political affairs of the court, I have also read history books and know the humiliation suffered by my family and country in the past hundred years. We have lost our old capital, and the people of the past have become vassals and captives of the enemy, suffering from discrimination and oppression. Whether it's the territory or the people, we can't afford to lose it anymore. ”
He looked at Xiao Heng: "Xiao Jun's public soldiers are like gods, and they have conquered Shu in just one year, which can be described as a rare general in a hundred years. With Xiao Jungong leading the troops to fight, presumably Na Yuan Cheng is definitely not an opponent. Instead of avoiding the war and seeking peace, it is better to make a desperate bet and ask Xiao Jungong to lead the army to recapture Xihai City! ”
The crowd was silent.
Although this statement is reasonable, the war is so cruel that in case the army is defeated......
Their current prosperity, wealth, and comfort and pleasure are all in vain!
Just as he was hesitating, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's voice was majestic: "I also think that I should lead the army to the battle." If you give in and go, you will only make the other party gain an inch. If we don't ask for peace, if the other party opens their mouths, what should we do to fill their endless desires? Are you willing to donate your own assets? ”
The crowd was silent again.
Donating your own assets, of course, is impossible.
After a moment of silence, someone suddenly said: "The loss of Xihai City this time is Xiao Rong's sin. Xiao Rong defected to the enemy and committed treason, and he deserved death. If Xiao Jungong is asked to go on the expedition, who knows if he will join forces with Xiao Rongli and betray the court together? In my opinion, your Xiao family can't be trusted! ”
Everyone nodded their heads, thinking that he had a point.
Cui Yuan stroked his long beard and proposed: "Since everyone is suspicious of the Xiao family, then it is better for my Cui family to send a general, Xiao Jungong as the deputy general, and lead the army to recapture Xihai City together, what do you adults think?" ”
At this point, everyone looked at each other a few times, and was forced to nod.
The council of the Imperial Study is gradually dispersing.
The light and shadow are clear, and the grass and trees are sparse.
Xiao Heng plucked the strings and watched Cui Shen's father and son leave together.
"Xuan Ce—"
Lu Ji hurriedly walked over: "I will also go out with you, leave Sister Daozhu in Xihai City to suffer, I am very unhappy in my heart, you have to give me a chance to make up for my mistakes!" ”
Xiao Heng took the long qin and got up slowly.
He said lightly: "You stay in Jiankang and keep an eye on someone for me." ”
"Who are you targeting?"
"Cui Shen."
Lu Ji was stunned: "He advocates the Northern Expedition like you, he is a person of the same faction, what are you staring at him for?" What's more, he didn't join the company, so there's nothing worth paying attention to! ”
"Let you star, you star, what's the nonsense?" Xie Nanjin slipped Lu Ji unhappily, and immediately turned to Xiao Heng, "Don't worry, we will definitely keep an eye on Cui Shen carefully!" ”
After Xiao Heng finished explaining to the two of them, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Sima Bao makeup who stepped out of the imperial study.
His eyes moved slightly, and he quietly chased after him.
Walking under the eaves, he whispered: "The eldest princess can borrow a step to speak?" ”
