Volume 1: When the Wind Rises Chapter 30 Death in Retribution

The suburbs of Yandu, Yishui Courtyard.

Tang Xiujin drank a cup of tea without hesitation, and slowly looked at Yu Qing, the commander of the shadow guard in front of him: "Everything is done?" ”

"Back to the young master, the person has already done it."

"Do you know where your brother is?" Tang Xiujin's slender fingers picked up a piece of pear blossom cake, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

"Back to the young master, I know."

Tang Xiujin said quietly: "Eleven years ago, it was my Tang family who rescued you on the edge of the cliff of death, and at that time you said that you were willing to go to the soup for the Tang family and swear to die to revenge, what do you think now?" ”

"Back to the young master, my loyalty has not changed."

Tang Xiujin chuckled: "Okay, if the Tang family wants you to kill your brother and then kill his master, will you do this?" ”

Yu Qing was silent.

Tang Xiujin shook his head and sighed: "The heart is not ruthless enough, the means are not hard enough, you are not suitable to be a dead soldier." From now on, stay with me. ”

Suddenly, the shadow guard at the door hurriedly came to report: "Young master, Ning Gongzi is here." ”

Tang Xiujin stuffed the remaining pear blossom cake into his mouth and said vaguely, "Let him in." ”

When Ning Fengzi came in, he didn't see Tang Xiujin eating pear blossom cake, but he saw Yu Qing kneeling on the side.

He frowned slightly: "Tang Xiujin, what are you doing here?" ”

Tang Xiujin waved his hand to let Yu Qing retreat, and then said slowly: "In the next family matter, Ning Gongzi smiled." ”

Ning Fengzi smiled lightly: "It's okay, I didn't come to you today for this matter." ”

Tang Xiujin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Three things, three people."

Tang Xiujin stared at Ning Fengzi's face, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "I'm a little curious, in another thousand years, will your face still look like this?" ”

Ning Fengzi smiled: "I'm also curious, what did you say to Shen Ying, why is he willing to die for you?" ”

Tang Xiujin poured a cup of tea for himself and Ning Fengzi, "You drink tea first." ”

Ning Fengzi picked up the teacup and smelled it, and the next moment he raised his sleeves and lifted the teacup: "The tea is poisonous, Tang Xiujin, where is your sincerity in inviting me?" ”

"I don't think I can hide anything from your eyes." Tang Xiujin sighed a little regretfully, "This teacup came out of the Jingde kiln, and it is precious." Ning Fengzi, since you dare to fall, you have to pay me a teacup today. ”

Ning Fengzi: "......"

It's good that I didn't poison your whole family.

"What you just asked me is actually quite simple. I told Shen Ying that either he would die, or I would send the shadow guard to kill Gu Huaixia. Tang Xiujin smiled softly, "Shen Ying is not a smart person in the first place, but when I say this, he still believes it." ”

"I don't want to go on a killing spree, but I can't help it, he knows too much, and if he falls to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, it won't be a good thing for me."

"The second thing, Lixia's injuries have healed, and she is now by Su Jiumo's side."

Tang Xiujin raised his eyebrows: "Su Jiumo wants to enter Beijing?" ”

Ning Fengzi nodded: "Luoyin Building will also be reopened." ”

Tang Xiujin suddenly remembered something: "What's the matter with Lixia's injury?" ”

Ning Fengzi explained: "She blew up the altar in southern Xinjiang and wanted to assassinate the eldest princess, but she also injured herself. ”

Tang Xiujin commented: "Stupid girl with dead eyes. ”

Ning Fengzi rarely agreed with him this time: "She looks more like a dead soldier than those people around you." ”

"So, the third thing?"

"Shen Ying is a pawn who crosses the river, and if he dies, he will die, but we must find an obedient chess piece again." Ning Fengzi said with a solemn face.

Tang Xiujin was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "I have a candidate." ”

"Who?"

"Prince of Chu, Shen Qiao."

Ning Fengzi bowed slightly: "I will send someone to contact him." ”

Tang Xiujin shook his head and said, "No, if you come forward to contact, I'm afraid this matter will be even more difficult." At the beginning, Shen Ying was used because of his status as a concubine, Shen Qiao is a sister-in-law, what did you use to tie him to our ship? ”

Ning Fengzi frowned, "What do you want to do?" ”

Tang Xiujin hooked his lips and smiled: "I want to give him a white hat." ”

——

Within the palace walls, two urgent military reports were quickly transmitted between the east and west palaces.

"Dunhuang is lost, Hexi is lost, and Yangguan changes hands!"

"Fushun has fallen, Tieling is besieged, and Liaodong is in danger!"

Shen Heng, who was sleeping in Changle Palace, was so shocked that he turned off the couch when he heard the news, and he didn't even have time to put on the clogs before he ran to Hanzhang Palace.

Shen Zhixi received the military report, and also rushed with Mingqing, and met Gu Yuan under the eaves of Hanzhang Palace.

"How's the situation in the temple?" Shen Zhixi asked as soon as they met.

Gu Yuan shook his head: "It's not good, those people inside have been arguing for half an hour, and the emperor sees that the time has come, let me come out to greet you." ”

Shen Zhixi nodded and walked into the main hall with Gu Yuan.

Seeing that several radicals from the main peace faction and the main battle faction were about to fight in front of the little emperor, Shen Zhixi said sharply: "Stop! This is in the court, not on Suzaku Street! They are all old people in the court, what kind of system do they have one by one? ”

As soon as the eldest princess became angry, everyone who had the vision was silent.

Shen Heng saw that his sister was coming, and finally regained a little aura of dominating the world: "Can't you hear my will?" Shut up! ”

Shen Zhixi stood on top of the Danqi, a pair of phoenix eyes swept at the ministers below, and said coldly: "The enemy is now, those who shake the hearts of the army will not be forgiven!" ”

Yang Yi, who was originally sitting, stood up trembling with her back trembling, "Your Majesty, eldest princess, please let Lao Chen say a few words." ”

Shen Heng nodded, "Pavilion Elder, please speak." ”

Yang Yi said in a deep voice: "Shouyan must guard Liao, and Fulong must be peaceful." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Shen Heng frowned slightly.

He wanted to be a good emperor, but he was not good at learning art, and he basically went in and out of his left ear and out of the right ear what Taifu taught when he was young.

Yang Yi analyzed one by one: "First, the minister thinks that it is the best policy to send troops to Liaodong first. Li Xuanyi is arrogant, Zhang Xuanliang is small, Zhijiao is good at life, and small is not far-sighted. Therefore, he sent troops to Beiliang first, and Li Xuanyi will definitely pour the strength of the whole country to aid Beiliang; Sending troops to Liaodong first to map Mobei, Zhang Xuanliang will definitely watch from the wall. ”

Shen Heng bowed slightly, "What the elder said is very true. ”

"Second, the emperor also has two strategies to send troops to Liaodong, one is to rush to the aid of Tieling, and the other is to march to Mobei, and the minister thinks that these two strategies can be carried out at the same time. First transfer the men and horses of the Liaodong headquarters to save Tieling, and then transfer the elite of the three battalions to Mobei, so that the northern army will be exposed to the enemy and take care of itself, so as to take the initiative to withdraw the army. ”

Shen Heng hesitated at the most critical time.

Admittedly, this plan was too risky, and once the north left and returned to defense, it was uncertain whether the Jokhang army could be withdrawn.

But Shen Zhixi tried her best to disagree with the public and handed over Yang Yi's strategy to the military department for long-term consideration.

Because she keenly felt that Yang Yi's words were not finished.

This hunched old man had single-handedly taken on a temple, and his plan could not have been so rash.

At this time, Ming Qing rushed into the hall regardless of his identity and whispered to Shen Zhixi: "Your Highness, the suicide note of Shen Ying." ”

Shen Zhixi frowned and opened the letterhead.
