He Ye had already gotten the news one step earlier, and originally didn't want to make Eleven Niang feel troubled, but this decision was very difficult, he had to think carefully, in order to avoid Eleven Niang from seeing the clues on his face and asking, he had to "hide" in Zhangtai Garden, not wanting to just have a decision, Jiang Huai came to ask to see, originally found a high-sounding excuse was "the princess suddenly felt unwell", He Ye believed it was true, and rushed to visit Yuguanju in a hurry, only to know that He Zhan actually told Eleven Niang about this urgency, and he couldn't hide it, and he could only admit it.

"On the same day, the five Turkic troops forced Ganzhou, the Empress Dowager Wei was afraid of the war and advocated peace talks, completely abolished the Anbei capital protection, and granted the five officers and soldiers to control the civil affairs in the domain, in fact, the Hui Hui, the servant bones and other departments were assigned to the five Turkic departments, and the Han people in the northern region of An'an were all reduced to five slaves, the original Youling assassinated Shi He did not return, and died under the Turkic knife, leaving a daughter He, because of her beauty, she married a concubine for Ashina Tu Jinba, and did not want to be in May, He assassinated Tu Jin, resulting in Tuo Jin being seriously injured, and the Turkic military and government were then controlled by the prince Ashina Qisang, and Qisang used the excuse that He was instructed by my Zhou Ting, plotted to assassinate the Turkic Kehan, tore up the peace treaty and forced Ganzhou again, and now the situation is indeed critical. ”

Eleven Niang said angrily: "The history of the Youling Assassin was originally a foreign race of the ancient tribe of Baye, because of the submission to the Zhou court, Wuzong gave the country the surname to allow him to guard the Youling, but when Emperor Yingzong, the Youling Department actually did not respect the decree of the Zhou court. ”

"When Emperor Mingzong, in order to envelop the Youling Department, a palace maid was descended and kissed in the name of Princess Zhou Ting, so the He family does have Han blood, and this He family is around, and there is no shortage of Han maids, one of them is determined to be instructed by my Zhou Ting, Qi Sang took her as a witness, and the excuse of raising troops is not completely unreasonable." He Ye frowned: "Moreover, this barbarian clan has always been unruly and benevolent, and Ashina Qisang has long coveted my Huaxia country, but the opposition of the Tujin regime has been suppressed, and since the coup has seized power, even if there is no banner, it is inevitable that the soldiers will force Ganzhou to point the sword at Chang'an." ”

Eleven Niang took a deep breath: "The war is regenerating, the war is imminent, after the battle of Youzhou, Pan Bo's vitality has been greatly damaged, even if Yuguan has not been conquered, and the Anton Army will not dare to commit Youzhou again for a while, the Queen Mother is very likely to order the Duke of Yan to conquer the five Turkic departments, and His Royal Highness should make plans as soon as possible." ”

Since Mingzong, the military defense has been neglected, and Yingzong, Suzong and other "carry forward", now the imperial court has not too many generals to take on heavy responsibilities, although An Ning Bo is familiar with the situation in Anbei, but now Hengzhou is not in turmoil, Empress Dowager Wei is bound to refuse to give up halfway and transfer away from An Ning Bo, compared with Qin Buyun, although she trusts Yao Qian more, but Yao Qian's waste How can he resist the Turkic Five Divisions? On the contrary, after the battle of Youzhou, if Yingzhou was to explore the bag and take things, it was very likely that Empress Dowager Wei would transfer Qin Buyun, the Duke of Yanguo, to conquer Anbei, and transfer the great achievement of pacifying Yingzhou Pan to Yao Qian.

Yao Qianruo is in Youzhou, of course, it is harmful to the great cause of the Jin Dynasty.

"I have received information that to this day, Empress Dowager Wei still has the heart to endure humiliation and peace talks with the five Turkic tribes." He Ye was furious: "Although she concluded that the Tubo and the Turks are not of the same heart and mind, it is not bad, and the Tubo Zanpu Solang Phuntsok may not be willing to raise troops with Ashina Qisang, but she has repeatedly endured humiliation and humiliation, but she is just exposing her fear of cowardice and giving the Turks time to gather the barbarians to grow stronger, and the decisive battle between Hu and Han is inevitable, and it is better to do it sooner rather than later, so I am determined to order Chengtai to promote the start of the war, if the Queen Mother orders the recruitment of the Duke of Yan as the main general, there is no need to hinder it." ”

Shi Niang heard that the Queen Mother was still happy until this time, and she just felt ridiculous, and then heard that the King of Jin had made a decision, and then turned into worry, and said half-loudly: "But if the military power of Youzhou falls into the hands of Yao Qian......"

"I can't care about so much anymore!" He Ye got up and paced to the window, outside the window was still a scenery of autumn air and clear clouds, but there was haze in his eyes, as if he had seen through the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and reached the wolf smoke and ferocious Anbei, his voice was unprecedentedly low, and his determination was unprecedentedly firm: "If Ganzhou is broken, Chang'an is in danger, and the barbarians invade my China, can I be partial to Jinshuo?" Even if I could, I would sit back and watch the people being humiliated and killed by the barbarians, and I would be a descendant of the surname He in vain, abandoning the people and the community, and only seeking petty power and selfish desires, what is the difference between me and the Empress Dowager Wei and others? ”

So even if this decision will make the road more bumpy in the future, and may even be a complete failure, must we first chase the barbarians?

Eleven Niang looked at the man's back in a daze, intellectually she couldn't agree with his decision, but emotionally she had to agree, she tried to stand on the same position as He Ye, but was distressed to find that she couldn't make up her mind at all, but she knew that the undead of her father and ancestor would inevitably agree with He Ye at this moment, if their selfishness could be a little more, the Pei Zheng clan would not be able to go to the desperate road of clan annihilation, she finally closed her eyes, and subconsciously put her palm on her lower abdomen, and her child in her body was extremely quiet at the moment, maybe with such an attitude, silently supporting his father.

"In this case, I will write to the fourteenth brother and ask him to do his best."

Hearing Eleven Niang's words, He Ye lowered his eyelids.

He didn't look back, because he was thinking about it, He Zhan regarded the princess as a sibling, knowing that the princess was pregnant, why did he have to tell her about it? He Zhan clearly has no choice, perhaps it is because he thinks that the princess will not approve of the transfer of Yan Guogong, just the ambition of the king of Jin is not enough to make He Zhan obey, but what is the princess's ambition?

——

In the late autumn of the ninth year of Chengde, Chang'an rained a lot, and the winter seemed to come in a particularly hurry, which caught people off guard.

Although He Zhan held the letter in his hand, although the sentence was long, the intention was very concise, and it was clear at a glance, but he read it carefully word by word, and it took a long time before it was destroyed in the charcoal fire, and the thin page of notes was destroyed by the flames.

The sky outside the window was already dark, but the torrential rain still showed no signs of stopping, and the momentum was so great that it wanted to destroy the city, but He Zhan's mood was clearly relaxed, and he sighed: "Jin Wang Ye, in the end, you made the right decision." ”

The gloomy canopy of heaven has no stars and no moon, only a faint silver thunderbolt from time to time, but the roaring explosion is not heard for a long time, as if it is brewing under layers of haze, if it sounds, it will be a thousand pounds, enough to destroy heaven and earth.

He knew that Master Jiang's fortune had been gradually fulfilled and that the catastrophe was coming, but he was not sure whether the efforts he had made would be able to save the country from this catastrophe.

You still have to do your best, step by step to get to where you are today, how can you give up halfway?

This night, the cold wind extinguished the lights of the corridor, but He Zhan lingered for a long time in the forest and darkness that filled the heavens and the earth, silently planning and waiting for the dawn.

In the high wall deep house, I don't hear the sound of the market, but there is a lamp that is held by the woman, Wanluo didn't expect her husband to stay awake all night, she is a little annoyed by her dereliction of duty, knowing that Ganzhou is in danger, and the government affairs are heavy, the husband is sad and uneasy, although she can't help, she can't persuade her to rest, and she should prepare food and drink at night, and she shouldn't let him survive this long night alone.

At this time, the sky was still not bright, not even the faint mist, He Zhan saw Wanluo coming, only to know that it was time to get up and freshen up, he saw that she only held her black hair low, put on a half-used long robe, while taking the lamp and candle, while saying: "I said that I don't need you to come, and it's not that there are no servants and maids to serve, the weather is colder, why bother to go to the cold this time?" ”

How much care was there, but Wan Luo swallowed because of the tiredness of her husband's eyebrows, and she only smiled slightly: "If you don't go on this trip, you can't feel at ease." ”

He Zhan took Wanluo's hand and walked into the study, the husband and wife had breakfast in silence, he changed into court clothes, covered with a rain hat, and walked silently through the rain curtain and boarded the car into the palace.

These days, the atmosphere of the government everywhere is also solemn, Wei Yuanping has asked several times on the question of whether to go to war, He Zhan's attitude has been ambiguous before, of course, this is not because he does not know that war is inevitable, but he has not waited for the response of Taiyuan, and now that he has finally waited, he does not plan to speak freely.

Today is not a court meeting, waiting for idle officials do not need to enter the palace, so although it is raining heavily, the road is also smooth, get off outside the palace gate, just meet Xu Xiuneng, He Zhan did not study in detail whether it is a coincidence or inevitable, not only for colleagues, but even can be regarded as a "fellow party", a smile and a salute, cold and noisy to the ya.

"Regarding the fact that the five Turkic tribes are fighting or making peace, what does Chengtai think?" Xu Xiuneng suddenly asked.

Seeing that the court would discuss it in a few days, it would be finalized, Xu Shizi finally couldn't hold his breath, and even used this "chance encounter" to ask He Zhan what he thought.

It turned out that the "ambiguous" person was not He Zhan alone.

Of course, Xu Xiuneng is not unaware that this battle is inevitable, and he does not need to wait for the instructions of others, but what is more clear is that the Queen Mother did not realize that seeking peace is a matter of avoiding medical treatment, although Xu Xiuneng is unwilling to disobey the wishes of the Queen Mother, but after all, this is related to the survival of the society. Xu Xiuneng had to be cautious.

He Zhan, who was still in harmony with Xu Xiuneng just now, didn't hear this, and only lowered his face and blindly walked forward, seeing that the yashi was already in sight, it seemed that he had come to his senses: "I was rude, because I had something on my mind, I didn't hear the words of the prince earlier." ”

Without asking Xu Xiuneng what he said, He Zhan hugged him again, and entered the duty room with a sad face.

"This fox!" Xu Xiu can grit his teeth and whisper, but he is helpless.

However, when Wei Yuanping summoned his subordinate officials again for consultation, Xu Xiuneng finally heard He Zhan talk eloquently: "Although Xie Xiang and Yuan Xiang are both in the main battle, but in the current situation, although there is still enough forbidden army to recruit Ganzhou, it is difficult to choose the commander, An Ningbo is attacking Hengzhou, and he must not be transferred to Ganzhou, otherwise wouldn't it be wasted?" Although Yan Guogong recovered Youzhou, Yuguan has not yet been conquered, and it is not a good plan to change generals before the battle...... The battle of Ganzhou was a loss of troops, and the prime minister was only afraid that he would bear the brunt of the crime. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wei Yuanping was stunned: "Xie Raoping and Yuan Dezhi are both in the main battle, but Xie Raoping proposed Qin Buyun and Yuan Dezhi to protect Yao Qian, even if I will not second Xie Raoping, if Yao Qian is defeated, Yuan Dezhi will bear the brunt." ”

He Zhan glanced at Xu Xiuneng, as if he hesitated, and finally decided to say bluntly: "Xianggong tried to think about it, if Ganzhou is defeated, the Turkic troops are approaching Chang'an, and the survival of Sheji is in danger, can those orthodox factions take the opportunity to force the Queen Mother to resign?" What is the significance of the prime minister at that time, of course, the queen mother's brother is more powerful. ”

Wei Yuanping suddenly realized.

He Zhancai said: "Yes, it is a safe plan to avoid war, Tubo may not be willing to raise troops with the Turks, and it is not impossible for the Great Zhou and the Five Ministries to negotiate peace." ”

Seeing that Wei Yuanping was about to agree, Xu Xiuneng's mind was "buzzing", and he immediately stopped it: "Xianggong, I think that what the people of He She said is ridiculous!" ”
