Chapter 268: Acting, turning danger into a disaster

The defeat of Hanzhong County made Tang Feng very annoyed, and after placing the wounded, he gathered the people of Hanzhong County, and even the soldiers of the family from all over the country got together.

All of a sudden, 5,000 men and horses were gathered, and under Tang Feng's order, they chased after Su Qi'an.

This time the pursuit completely gave up the previous step-by-step camp, as long as Su Qi'an's traces were found, he bit it unceremoniously.

Definitely don't give Su Qi'an any time to breathe, this attack, Tang Feng has already given an order, every time he pursues a place, the soldiers of the nearby counties and counties have to fully cooperate and actively send troops.

Under this kind of persevering pursuit, some results have been achieved.

So that Su Qi'an's Dongshan Army did not have much time to rest, and Su Qi'an originally planned to give full play to the advantages of the previous mobile warfare, and specially fight a single order to harass a small part.

But Tang Feng is obviously a master of learning, and this time the attack is not like before, scattering the troops, but integrating the troops.

Although it is difficult to act, it is a whole, like an iron bucket.

With Su Qi'an's 2,000 men and horses, it is a little difficult to eat the 5,000 men and horses pursuing in one go.

What Su Qi'an lacks is time, once he is entangled, the absolute follow-up army will follow up quickly, this is Tang Feng's calculation, Su Qi'an will naturally not do what he wants.

Therefore, the surprise attack failed, and the Dongshan Army began to circle around the territory of Xizhou and the pursuing soldiers.

Therefore, in the case of the two sides coming and going, biting to death, most of the previous relatively large fierce battles broke out.

The men and horses on both sides, just like this, launched a long chase in Xizhou, and no one would take a step back.

With the passage of time, such frictional battles in Xizhou also spread to the Imperial City of Kyoto at a very fast speed.

After receiving the news of Xizhou Mu Tangfeng's request for help, everyone in the imperial city was shocked, and Su Xuanyong attached great importance to it and quickly convened the ministers to discuss.

After all, who would have thought that Su Qi'an, who left Kyoto and returned to Xizhou, would do such a big thing.

In their impression, Su Qi'an left Kyoto, but he was quite embarrassed, and he had to face rounds of interceptions.

To be able to return to Xizhou safely, even if he is lucky, who would have thought that when he returned to Xizhou, he did not know that there were more than 2,000 so-called Dongshan troops in his hands.

Even in Xizhou, there was such a big fuss, not to mention the son of the captured state pastor, and he also fought with the Xizhou pastor.

If it weren't for Su Qi'an's royal status, how to look at it, Su Qi'an's various behaviors would be comparable to rebellion.

When, in the realm of Da Liang, the dignified marquis and the local state pastor directly used the army to fight, which is really unheard of.

Therefore, when Su Xuanyong summoned the minister to discuss, it was not surprising that most of them condemned.

Among them, Zheng, Zhao, and Chen were the most vicious, and they tried their best to hope that His Majesty could take back the soldiers and horses in Su Qi'an's hands.

And the same Xizhou Mu asked for the Xizhou soldiers to come back to help, forcing Su Qi'an to put down his weapons and surrender immediately, otherwise it would be difficult to do well in Xizhou.

They know very well what the combat strength of the Dongshan Army is, although they don't know how the two thousand Dongshan Army quietly left Kyoto.

But as a first-class duke, he can still guess some, so he was in trouble, and did not directly point to the appearance of the Dongshan Army, but asked His Majesty to withdraw the military power.

The two thousand Dongshan Army is commanded by Su Qi'an at any time, and it is also making trouble in Xizhou, if it is not controlled, who knows what will happen.

Therefore, based on various concerns, the request of the three princes is more reasonable.

There are condemnations, and naturally there are opponents, and the opponents are Wenxuan and Chu Xiong, two important ministers of the court who are also not weaker than the three princes.

The reason for their opposition is also very simple, first of all, what happened in Xizhou is just the words of the Xizhou pastor.

And Su Qi'an has military power, there is nothing unreasonable, he himself is the Hou Ye, and the Hou Ye has an army above the Hou Ye level, which is the grace of the imperial court.

It is impossible to withdraw the military power because of the conflict that broke out with Xizhou Mu, and if he really did this, it would not only hurt Su Qi'an's heart, but also make other Hou Ye

What to think.

When the time comes, who can afford to lead to chaos, so Wenxuan and Chuxiong advocate it.

It is best to come to Kyoto and face to face with Your Majesty, tell all the causes and consequences of the matter, and finally make a decision by Your Majesty.

This suggestion directly made Zheng Guogong let out a disdainful sneer, and he looked at Wen Xuandao.

"Hmph, Fumiko, you think this is a play house, let the two of them come to Kyoto? Face to face? One is a state pastor, and the other is a son of the royal family, and he is still a marquis."

"I really came to Kyoto, not to mention the long time on the road, and who can guarantee that there will be no accidents on the road, Dongshan Hou is okay, he has some skills, and he is okay to intercept and kill all the way from Kyoto, so don't worry."

"But that Xizhou pastor, as far as the old man knows, has no skills at all, if something happens to the state pastor on the road, can you bear it?"

"That is, Master Wen is still too ideal, he stays in the Hanlin Academy all the year round, he doesn't know the dangers of the outside world, and besides, this Xizhou pastor has been conscientious for so many years, he can still be trusted, and he will never make false accusations against the Marquis of Dongshan."

"I think Master Wen trusts his students too much, and Master Wen doesn't know that there is a saying that people's hearts will change."

"He was awarded the title of Hou Ye in one leap, and became the youngest Hou Ye in the history of Da Liang, who can be ranked in the top three, he can't grasp people's hearts, and he floats all of a sudden, which is normal."

Zheng Guogong's voice fell, and Zhao Guogong on the side also spoke.

The yin and yang weirdness of these two made Wen Xuan quite unhappy, no matter how he said it, he was also the dean of the Hanlin Academy and the leader of the Daliang literati, so he really couldn't be bullied.

Wen Xuan was not polite at all, and directly retorted, "Hmph, the old man trusts his own students, why is it wrong, Dongshan Hou was the old man's student before, and the old man still understands his conduct."

"As for the Xizhou pastor you are talking about? Why, this Xizhou pastor has a deep friendship with the two, and he speaks for him like this, I don't know, I still think that the Xizhou pastor is a student of the two."

"Master Wen, what nonsense are you talking about! Don't think that if you are a literati leader, you can just talk about it, what kind of friendship is deep, we are just standing on an objective point of view, absolutely not biased."

Zhao Guogong immediately retorted, and both of them had a little excitement on their faces.

Wen Xuan's words just now are actually quite ruthless, if they don't react and acquiesce, I'm afraid they won't be able to get through in front of His Majesty.

In Daliang, if the court officials and local officials walk too close, it is very likely to constitute a party for personal gain, which is a taboo for His Majesty.

Who would have thought that this always peaceful Wenxuan would be so vicious that he almost took the two to the ditch.

Chu Xiong, who was standing on Wen Xuan's side, also opened his mouth at this time, "Zhao Guogong, don't be so excited, Wen Fuzi is also worried about his students, what he said just now is a bit radical, don't take it to heart the two elders."

"However, Ben Zaifu has some questions, since the two of you have no friendship with Xizhou Mu, but what is your performance, there is a kind of meaning of putting Dongshan Marquis to death."

"Even according to what Xizhou Mu said, everything is provoked by the Marquis of Dongshan, but the Marquis of Dongshan is a royal family, even if it is disposed of, it will not be his turn, at this time, let the Xizhou soldiers go back, what does he mean?"

"In order to deal with the Marquis of Dongshan, tens of thousands of Xizhou soldiers were mobilized, which means siege? No matter how you look at it, the old man has a kind of meaning of killing them all."

"Don't the princes know this reason, but they just promote this matter, and Ben Zaisuke is very suspicious of the intentions of the princes."

Chu Xiong's voice was very soft, but it suddenly made the faces of Zheng, Zhao, and Chen change greatly.

If Wen Xuan was just standing on the side of protecting his students, they would still be able to understand it, but Chu Xiong's words directly roasted the three of them on the oil pot.

Isn't it suspected that the three of them colluded with Xizhou Mu, and took the opportunity to mobilize Xizhou soldiers to return to help, intending to rebel.

This is Chu Xiong, who has been sitting firmly in Zaifu for so many years, just so silently, and directly took them into the army.

Fortunately, the three princes were not white in the court, so they pounced and immediately knelt down.

The first to speak was Zheng Guogong, who kowtowed to Su Xuanyong again and again, kowtowing and explaining

Release.

"The old minister's loyalty to His Majesty and Da Liang can be seen from the sun and the moon, the old minister knows today's events, and he has gone a little too far, and he doesn't care about the identity of the Dongshan Marquis royal family."

"The old minister knows that no matter how much he says, it will not help, in order to prove the loyalty of the old minister, the old minister can only repay him with death."

"Your Majesty, Ministers, take care!"

After the words fell, Zheng Yuan got up, without any hesitation, and directly hit the rear coiling dragon pillar.

Seeing this, Zhao Guogong and Chen Guogong behind him followed one after another.

Just when the three of them were about to collide with the coiling dragon pillar and understand their lives, Su Xuanyong seemed to have expected this scene a long time ago.

The forbidden army standing in the hall to protect the safety quickly pulled the three of them with one step.

The three people who were pulled were struggling, still desperately slamming into the dragon pillar in front of them.

"Your Majesty, you just let the old minister die, the old minister can only prove his innocence with death, and he has no shame to live."

At this time, Su Xuanyong, who had not spoken, finally spoke.

"Okay, look at you, what kind of thing you look like, a good discussion of things, you have to make a fuss, do you want to see the joke of the widow?"

Su Xuanyong's voice was full of anger, and in an instant, the ministers in the hall knelt down one after another.

This time Su Xuanyong was really angry, for so many years as a courtier, Su Xuanyong's anger was only a handful.

was said by Su Qi'an, Zheng Guogong and the three did not struggle, and immediately knelt down and confessed.

"It's the old minister who is confused, making His Majesty embarrassed, the old minister confesses, how does Your Majesty want to punish him, the old minister admits it, I just ask Your Majesty not to be angry."

Su Xuanyong glanced at Zheng Yuan and said coldly, "Hmph, with you chattering like this, the widow will be angry with you sooner or later."

Su Xuanyong sighed, soothed his mood a little, and said softly, "Okay, get up, what happened just now, that's it, don't mention it to anyone."

"Anyway, I can't discuss anything if I ask you, so let's stand down first, let the widow think about this matter, and then give you an answer."

"Resignation!"

Su Xuanyong said so, and the two sides of the dispute could only know each other and leave.

But Zheng, Zhao, and Chen, who got up, glanced at each other, and they all admired Zheng Yuan.

Zheng Guogong, who knows His Majesty best, can always turn danger into disaster at critical moments.

This scene was not in vain, they knew that in front of His Majesty, the matter just now had ended here, and they were safe.
