Soon, Zhang Yan was hurriedly admitted to the palace by the eunuchs.

Before this, he had already heard the news that the northern captives had broken through the pass and went south, and after entering the palace, he saw Emperor Zhizheng in a coma, and suddenly Zhang Yan had no master.

But then, he realized what it meant to be introduced to the palace at this time.

Wu Xingbang just wanted to speak at this time, but who knew that Queen Xie had already taken a step ahead of him and said: "Prince, the emperor has said several times in front of the palace that the eldest son of the emperor is benevolent and magnanimous, rational and obedient to the people, and now there are Tatars outside, and there are Zhu rebels inside, the emperor is working on state affairs, and he is unconscious, this palace wants to draw up a decree, please ask the prince to supervise the country!" ”

As soon as Xie Shi's words came out, Zhang Yan's heart felt as if someone had hit him with a heavy hammer in his chest, he had a premonition just now, and when it was confirmed at this moment, he still couldn't believe his ears.

Empress Xie saw him standing in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time, so she asked again: "Prince, are you willing!" ”

Zhang Yan came back to his senses at this time, knelt on the ground and said, "Erchen is willing!" The son thanked the queen. ”

He was really moved by Empress Xie.

Queen Xie was originally quite good to them on weekdays, but at this critical time, he did not help his own son Shu Wang Jianguo, and he did not expect his younger brother Zhang Can, who had the highest voice from the government and the opposition, to supervise the country, but found himself, the abolished prince.

When Empress Xie saw him agree, she finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

The words of selling a good child were all preemptively said by Empress Xie, and Wu Xingbang couldn't ask for credit at this time, so he could only give his hand and say: "Prison country, now that the northern captives have arrived near Tongzhou, please ask the prison country to ask the emperor's seal to mobilize three battalions of soldiers and horses!" ”

When Zhang Yan heard this, his face was solemn and said: "Wang Ji, quickly send someone to the Tai Hospital to summon the Tai Doctor to meet you!" ”

Everyone's hearts were cold, yes, the dynasty ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, no matter how hot the eyebrows were, the emperor was still lying here in a coma.

Before everyone could think about it any more, Zhang Yan continued: "Wu Shoufu, please ask the Empress Yizhi to quickly go and let the Zhongshu draft the decree, and then take it to Shang Baosi, take the Empress Yizhi and the edict, and let Shang Baosi use the seal!" ”

Wu Xingbang hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Yes!" ”

After Zhang Yan finished dealing with the urgent matter, he sat on the edge of the couch, held the hand of Emperor Zhizheng and cried: "Father! The son was guilty, but the son didn't expect his father to be in a coma......"

Although Empress Xie is a woman, she also knows that she can't give someone a handle, especially at this critical time, so she explained: "Prison Country, Your Majesty didn't want the foreign court to know about this before, and she didn't deliberately let a few princes know!" ”

The abolished prince cried: "I also know that my father's hard work for the court is just that I feel unfilial and have not fulfilled the responsibilities of the son of man!" ”

Queen Xie persuaded him again, and finally asked Wang Ji to help him up.

Then, Empress Xie said: "Prison country, now that the northern captives are in the Kou, you should discuss this matter with the ministers, Your Majesty is here, the Free Palace will take care of it, if Your Majesty wakes up, I will go to find you." ”

Zhang Yan respectfully bowed deeply in front of Queen Xie: "The queen's grace, Zhang Yan is grateful in my heart!" ”

A lot of words don't need to be pointed out, both sides know what each other's hearts are.

After Zhang Yan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xu Song and said, "Please come to the side hall for the elder Xu Ge!" ”

Xu Song looked at the waste prince with mixed tastes and followed him to the side hall.

As soon as he sat down, Zhang Yan got up and came to Xu Song, and said with a wave of his hand: "The court is up and down, and everyone knows the old soldiers of the pavilion." Now that the Beiyu is coming again, please tell me how to resist it! ”

Xu Song hurriedly stood up and said, "Jian Guo is polite, please take a seat." ”

At this time, Wang Ji had already asked the little eunuch to bring a screen, on which was the map of the Emperor Wei's official unification of the two capitals and thirteen provinces that Emperor Zhizheng often checked.

Xu Song found the pass pass and said: "About 100 miles outside this pass is the Tatar sweat tent, in previous years, the Tatars were looking for a gap near Daru City to enter the Great Wei to burn and loot. ”

"But in recent years, there have been thieves in Xuanfu and Jizhen, because the 30,000 households of the Mongolian left wing have grown stronger and stronger under the leadership of the thief chief Balsborot, not only squeezing out the pastures of Warat, but even the 30,000 households of the Mongolian right wing are trembling under its soldiers."

"Therefore, Balsborough is no longer satisfied with entering Gansu, Shanxi, and Shaanxi from the northwest in previous years, making small fights, they are becoming more and more arrogant, and they are aiming at this ......"

Xu Song pointed to the boundary of Shuntianfu Beizhili!

Zhang Yan cursed in a low voice: "This group of Menggou is simply bold!" ”

Xu Song said: "This time the northern captives went south, and they should have broken through the first line of the watershed Che River. ”

"There's already news?"

Xu Song shook his head: "Zhizheng local government and guard office have not yet come to Beijing, only the Beijing guard commands the envoy, and the commander knows that Xu He happens to be training in Zunhua, and he found out about this last night, when the Beiyu had just broken through the pass and went south, he made a non-stop detour to report!" ”

Zhang Yan sighed with "appreciation" on his face when he heard this: "It turned out to be Liangsheng, my brother-in-law is really honest, I remember, if you defeat the Tatars this time, Liangsheng will have a good job!" ”

Xu Song said: "Your Highness, the top priority is to ensure the safety of the Jingshi and no accidents!" ”

"The second is that the Tongzhou warehouse in transit of Tongzhou Caoyun can not have an accident, these days, it is already the autumn harvest season, the imperial court Huguang uses troops, the grain is already tight, the grain in the southeast provinces are directly sent to Huguang, the grain and summer tax in the Tongzhou warehouse, is the imperial court from the end of this year to next year's autumn harvest all the money and grain! If it is snatched away by the captives, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

The more Xu Song said, Zhang Yan's face became heavier.

But this is not over, Xu Song continued: "Although there are many garrisons near Shuntian Mansion, most of them are some tunken guards, and the Beijing camp still has the strength to fight, but the Jingwei is rotten, and I am afraid it will be useless. ”

"For today's plan, the only way to do this is to let the Tianjin Sanwei, as well as the soldiers and horses of Shanxi Xuanfu and Huailai and Yongning generals hurry into Beijing Gongwei, otherwise even if Beijing is not broken, Beizhili will be ruined!"

Zhang Yan frowned and said, "What about Jizhen?" Jizhen is the closest, why not send the border army of Jizhen to the south. ”

Xu Song said: "The new chief soldier of Jizhen Liu Gui is still on the way to take office, and the dragons have no leader, I am afraid that if something happens to Jizhen, I am afraid that the impact will be even worse!" ”

Zhang Yan nodded and said: "I understand what Elder Ge meant, you mean that if these Tatars fail to sneak attack the Jingshi, they may go around the rich land around Shuntian Mansion to fight grass valleys, and after grabbing a lot of money, they will calmly return to the grassland!" ”

Xu Song nodded and said, "Exactly!" ”

Zhang Yan said angrily: "Don't think! Your cabinet is going to use the seal of the prison to let the deputy general of Jizhen take the regular soldiers to seize the pass that was broken by the northern captives! They don't have the general army, they can't rescue the Jingshi, go and guard the gate for me, right? ”

The army directly under the general command of the border army, called Zhengbing, is the elite of a town, and the rest of the deputy general soldiers and the soldiers brought by the guerrillas from all walks of life are called reinforcements.

Xu Song nodded: "I'll do it now!" ”

When he left the Wanshou Palace, he looked in the direction of the side hall, and his heart was mixed.

Zhang Yan, through the contact just now, Xu Song found that he was the most dominant of the three princes.

But the feud between him and Xu He seems to be okay now, what about the future?

In case Emperor Zhizheng really can't do it this time, if Zhang Yan ascends the throne......

"Alas! Let's take it one step at a time! In this case, the crown prince is always better than the king of Qi...... Idiot! ”
