For the good news of Xuanfu, some people are happy, some are sad, and some people grit their teeth with hatred.

After dusk, the imperial historian Wu Shichang worriedly came to find the second assistant Zhang Fu, because the battle was won in the direction of Xuanfu Town, Emperor Tianyou was even more determined, regardless of the advice of the cabinet and the household department, he still supported the tactics of Zhenguo Bull Jizong, and dragged the main force of the grassland coalition army in the direction of Juyong Pass, and let Jia Jue and the three of them attack the rear grain road of the grassland coalition army in the direction of Xuanfu, forcing them to divide their troops, so as to win the war.

This is completely contrary to what they had conceived before, according to the previous plan, the two sides should break out in the vicinity of Huailai City, more than 200,000 elite troops and the three clans alliance army fought together, Zhen Guogong and others with the advantage of weapons and armor to the three clans caused huge casualties, at this time, the chess pieces in the ambush in the army will show flaws at the critical moment, so that the three clans alliance army to the army to a heavy loss, in this way, not only weakened the three clan alliance, but also can once again hit the Xungui group, without the support of these people, The emperor will obediently stay in the imperial city, and the Ming Dynasty is still their family to decide.

Wu Shichang entered the door directly without informing, and the housekeeper of Zhang's Mansion stepped forward and said, "The master is in the study." ”

"Got it, I'll go by myself."

In the study, Zhang Fu did not sit in front of the bookcase to deal with affairs as in the past, on the chair in the window, Zhang Fu held a book and looked at the book seriously in the light.

Wu Shichang walked in, looked at Zhang Fu's demeanor, shook his head, and said while walking to the table to light the lamp: "Second assistant is good Yaxing, the sky is about to fall, and you can still sit here and read the sage book peacefully." ”

Zhang Fu's eyes stared at the book, "This Ming surname is Zhu, whether it collapses or not is not something we have to worry about." ”

Wu Shichang was stunned.

Zhang Fu put the book in his hand on the coffee table, "There is news from Juyong Pass, Niu Jizong is tracking down the detailed work in the army, focusing on the main generals and deputy generals of each battalion. ”

Wu Shichang: "The news has been revealed?!" ”

Zhang Fu stood up, walked to the door, and looked at the sky outside, "Not many people know about this matter, it definitely didn't leak out from my side, and it can't be from your side, the only possible thing is the Zhou Mansion and Song Qian's side, I checked it, the head of the Shu Mansion, Shi had been to the Song Mansion, and then the King of Shu entered the palace, you know, Song Gan has always disagreed with our approach, so..."

This is news that everyone has heard, and Wu Shichang's eyes flashed.

Wu Shichang was about to speak, but Zhang Fu continued: "The battle situation in Xuanfu has been decided, and our plan has failed. ”

“.... Minor auxiliary. ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Fu responded casually, glanced back at Wu Shichang, pointed to the side and smiled: "Sit down!" ”

Wu Shichang sat down on the chair in front of the window, Zhang Fu ordered someone to serve new tea, for a while, he waved his hand and let everyone go down, for a moment, only the two of them were left, Zhang Fu sighed and said: "More than ten years and twenty years of hard work is not worth a sentence, your surname is Zhu!" ”

"Inexplicable!"

Wu Shichang was anxious, "He has already offended the nobles, and without our support, he is nothing." Once King Liang ascended the throne, he didn't even have a chance to live, but it was King Liang who he ordered to be intercepted. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Fu couldn't help but look straight at Wu Shichang and examine him.

"What? Am I wrong? ”

Wu Shichang was a little uncomfortable with his gaze and asked.

"No, you're quite right."

Zhang Fu looked out the window, and after a while, Fang said, "I understand." ”

Wu Shichang was a little surprised, looked at Zhang Fu, and waited for him to finish speaking.

Zhang Fu smiled: "This is the art of the emperor!" The way of balance. ”

"What then?"

Wu Shichang looked at Zhang Fu in a daze.

Zhang Fu groaned: "We have to withdraw from this war, the palace has already targeted us, just waiting to wipe us out." Also, we are on the wrong path, Wu Lao and they did not meddle in the military back then, but they were able to control everyone in their hands, which shows that we can influence and even influence the situation of the war through other ways..."

"What does the second assistant mean is that logistical supplies such as military salaries and grain and grass?"

"Not bad."

Zhang Fu nodded, "Your Majesty has obviously discovered this as well, otherwise, how could you send King Liang to be in charge of the household department." ”

Wu Shichang smiled, "King Liang is still a shallow city, and he doesn't know anything if he is offered there like a bodhisattva by the officials below." ”

Zhang Fu took a sip of the tea bowl and said slowly: "What if Song Qian helps him?" ”

"He dares!"

Wu Shichang stood up suddenly, and at this time, Tie Qing's face was blue, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If he dares to do this, I will destroy his entire family." ”

Zhang Fugang took a sip of tea in his mouth, squirted out, frowned, and scolded in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense!" It's a multi-year relationship. ”

Wu Shichang calmed down a little at this time, and thought for a while, "Forgive him and don't dare, otherwise..."

"Alright."

Zhang Fu cut him off, "Things have to be done one by one." ”

"So what do you say?"

"Now Your Majesty has become suspicious, we must protect ourselves in order to plot great things."

Wu Shichang was stunned, "Is that it?" ”

Zhang Fu couldn't hold back any longer, and stood up suddenly, "Lord Wu, Doctor Wu!" I'll tell you the truth, it's clear that the battle is a game, a game that will fit all of us in, and the rope that ties the pocket is in His Majesty's hand, just waiting for us to jump into it. Let's put it this way, our previous conspiracy was revealed, and His Majesty guessed everything, but he was suffering from no evidence, otherwise he would have done it a long time ago. ”

Wu Shichang was stunned, and it was only at this time that he knew why Zhang Fu asked him to clean up the mansion.

Looking at Wu Shichang, who was stunned, Zhang Fu scolded in his heart: Waste, I don't know how Wu Lao has such a son.

Thinking of this, he snorted heavily and said: "He guessed what to do, it is unknown who will die in the end, this battle is estimated to last a few months, this is our opportunity, we must seize it." ”

Listening to Zhang Fu's tone, it seemed that there was a countermeasure, Wu Shichang perked up, and hurriedly asked, "What is the plan for the second assistant?" ”

"Plan?"

Zhang Fu sneered, "Of course there is, but the key is Yangmou, only Yangmou can force His Majesty and the military to act according to our plan, and only then can we stay out of the matter." ”

“....”

Wu Shichang's brain couldn't keep up, and he couldn't keep up with the conversation, so he rolled his eyes and thought nonsense there.

Zhang Fu glanced at him and said with a mocking smile: "The 200,000 army, people eat horses and chew, and the daily food needs are as high as four or five thousand stones, and these 100,000 stone grains alone can't last long." ”

Wu Shichang was stunned for a moment, this time he suddenly realized, he patted his head and said with a smile: "Baoling Hou has only pacified the Jurchens in Liaodong, the victims there need relief from the imperial court, 100,000 stone is the least, and Henan, well, Shaanxi didn't send a letter saying that Yan'an Mansion in northern Shaanxi had suffered a little disaster, so after calculation, no two or three hundred thousand stone grain would not be able to save the disaster...."

"Sit, sit down."

Zhang Fu beckoned and sat down, "It's just that this is not enough, not to mention that the household department has more than 10 million taels of silver, that is, His Majesty has the money copied from the Bai family in his hands, so we must find a way to make the grain have a price and no market, and if there is no food, see what he Niu Jizong does, as long as he moves, he will definitely be able to reveal flaws, and when the time comes.... Hehe. ”

Wu Shichang hesitated, "I'm afraid the grassland people won't be able to hold it in the first place." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Fu felt tired for a while, and said directly: "I told you, aliens are not credible, you didn't read that letter, Ah Faux Rude is not very good, but his ambition is not small, he dared to give birth to the idea of attacking Gyeonggi and breaking Shenjing, we are really defenseless." ”

Speaking of this, he thought about it for a while, and said: "Not to say that they must be prepared, but they are not prepared, and they are defeated, which is what we are willing to see." ”

Wu Shichang nodded silently, "The matter of grain still needs those merchants to come forward." ”

Zhang Fu: "People must be reliable. If you reveal the news, it's a matter of life and death. ”

"I know this, I don't need you to remind me, by the way, Nanzhili has news, the Jia Family Chamber of Commerce is buying a large amount of grain, saying that it has obtained a method of making wine from the ancient recipe, and the wine brewed is pure and strong, and it is about to be brewed in large quantities, which is just an excuse to hoard grain."

Speaking of this, Wu Shichang smiled faintly, "When the time comes, the imperial court will not be able to buy grain if it has money, see what Your Majesty will do, if you don't deal with the Jia family, he won't be able to deal with other grain merchants." ”

"Do it like that, and you must keep it secret."

Zhang Fu said, immediately felt footsteps outside the door, and hurriedly looked towards the door.

After a while, the old housekeeper walked to the bottom of the stone steps, "Master, the third young master has entered Beijing, and he has just gotten off the boat, and he is already on his way back to the house...."

Zhang Fu's eyes lit up, he has three sons, the most important thing is these three sons, this time to enter Beijing is for next year's Spring Festival, if there is no accident, Yijia will not be able to run, immediately smiled: "Quick, tell the kitchen quickly, prepare a banquet." ”

He looked at Wu Shichang again and said with a smile: "Don't leave today." ”

Wu Shichang: "Then bother." ”
