Zhu Zaijiang sat on the dragon chair, motionless.

People grow up in different environments and experience different people and things, and the speed of growth will be different.

Although he has just turned seven years old, Zhu Zaijiang's speech and demeanor are not far from those of eleven or twelve-year-old children. Even if he still has the naivety, naivety, playfulness and ignorance of a child, but at this moment, Zhu Zaijiang, who is sitting on the dragon chair, straightening his waist and looking at the civil and military officials seriously, has begun to show the bearing of an emperor.

The five ministers sat under the quadrangle and listened to the hundreds of civil and military officials lined up in a phalanx below playing various matters.

Some of those who could be decided on the spot, the five ministers who took care of their lives made a decision on the spot. If it is impossible to make a decision on the spot, the fold will be collected, and it will be discussed in the Qianqing Palace for a while, and then the method of handling it will be decided.

The early dynasty dispersed, and the five ministers accompanied Zhu Zaijiang back to the Qianqing Palace.

Then the five of them began to discuss the reported recitals. At this time, Zhong Bin, the new commander of Jinyiwei, personally entered the palace and went to the Qianqing Palace.

Seeing Zhong Bin breaking into the Qianqing Palace, Yang Tinghe frowned and said, "Presumptuous, this is the Qianqing Palace, can you break into it casually?"

Zhong Bin glanced at Yang Tinghe and didn't say anything, he bowed slightly, and raised a battle report with both hands: "Report to your lords, Suzhou is eight hundred miles urgent." The Turpan army invaded Jiayu Pass, and Jiayu Pass had been broken. Hou Zhang, a guerrilla general at Jiayuguan, was captured, and the Northwest Frontier Army and the Beijing Battalion suffered heavy casualties. ”

Every word that Zhong Bin said in his mouth was actually earth-shattering, but he had the ability to do it, but he was very plain and said these words expressionlessly.

"What?" Yang Yiqing heard this, and first patted his chair and stood up. He looked at Zhong Bin and asked, "Did the battle report say how many soldiers and horses were dispatched from Turpan?"

Zhong Bin replied: "Less than 80,000." ”

"Less than 80,000?" Yang Yiqing was so angry that his beard fluttered, he looked at Yang Tinghe, and said meaningfully: "It's really a good skill, my own 100,000 soldiers and horses, plus nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses in the border army." 150,000 people against 80,000 people, and they were beaten like this!"

Yang Tinghe's eyelids were slightly raised, and after glancing at Yang Yiqing, Yang Tinghe's eyes drooped, and he took a slight breath and said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, now is not the time to investigate who is right and wrong, let's take a look first and discuss how to deal with it, Jiayu Pass is broken, and Suzhou may not be able to resist for long." ”

"Report! The military department asked Xia Yan to see him in the middle of the matter!" The guards guarding outside the Qianqing Palace entered the Qianqing Palace to report.

When Wang Qiong heard this, she immediately showed a shocked expression. Yang Tinghe's eyelids jumped and said, "Pass him in." ”

Soon, Xia Yan walked into the Qianqing Palace, saluted Yang Ting and them, and said, "See the five adults." ”

"What's the matter?" Yang Tinghe asked.

Xia Yan made a movement that was not much different from Zhong Bin, bowed his body and sent out a battle report with both hands, and said: "Report to your lords, Suzhou has been broken by the Turpan and Warat coalition forces, and now the Jingying reinforcements and the Northwest Frontier Army are retreating to Liangzhouwei!"

"What?" This time, including Yang Tinghe, he was also surprised, and he couldn't help but scold: "Yan Song, this ......"

The word "waste" had not yet come out of Yang Tinghe's mouth, and Yang Tinghe forcibly swallowed the two back into his stomach.

If it is only said that Jiayu Pass has been broken, then Suzhou can resist it again. But now that Suzhou is also broken, it means that the door of the Ming Dynasty has been torn open by the people of Turpan.

Now the Turpan army can be said to be advancing and retreating unhindered. There is no longer any natural danger to defend, and the only hope is that the officers and soldiers of each city will do their best to resist the enemy, so as not to let the Ming Dynasty suffer too heavy losses.

However, Suzhou is broken, and there are too many places where the Turpan army can go, and the Ming Dynasty has suffered heavy losses now.

There are still 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp, but do these 100,000 soldiers and horses really dare to move?

Once moved, in case the war is unfavorable, Jingshi is equivalent to an empty city. Anyone who sends a troop of troops and horses will immediately be in danger of being broken.

Yang Yiqing turned his head to look at Yang Tinghe, and shouted angrily: "Yang Tinghe, you picked a good candidate!"

After speaking, Yang Yiqing directly flicked his sleeves and walked out of the Qianqing Palace.

Without Jiang Xia's presence, just Yang Yiqing and Li Dongyang have no role at all, and it doesn't matter whether they are there or not.

Yang Ting and Tie blushed and sat back on their chairs with blank expressions.

It is true that he likes to fight for power, but now the problem is not about power, but about the safety of the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty is dispersed, what is the point of him Yang Tinghe sitting on the throne?

Yang Tinghe was not familiar with military affairs, he turned his head to look at Wang Qiong and asked, "Wang Shangshu, how should I deal with it now, is there a good plan?"

Wang Qiong was slightly stunned, he looked at Yang Tinghe, this was the first time he felt that Yang Tinghe was still so incompetent. Isn't it obvious how to deal with it now?

Among the six ministers, Li Dongyang, who had rarely spoken, finally spoke at this moment, and he said: "The Ministry of War immediately urgently issued an order to let the soldiers and horses of the Shaanxi Xingdu Division assist the Suzhou army. ”

"Yes!" Wang Qiong replied.

Li Dongyang looked at Zhong Bin again and said, "Jinyiwei's side immediately used the flying pigeon to pass the news of the destruction of Suzhou City to the prefectures and counties along the road, and ordered them to prepare to defend against the enemy. If the chief official loses the city, he will be beheaded without forgiveness! Those who abandon the city without a battle will be punished by the nine clans! Those who have made meritorious deeds and successfully defended the city will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds and promoted to one level. ”

"Yes!" Zhong Bin replied.

Li Dongyang finally looked at Yang Tinghe, sighed and said, "Let people go to Jiangxi immediately to pass the order, and let Wang Shouren immediately lead the troops to Liangzhou to support the guard." ”

"Yes......" Yang Tinghe also responded.

However, Yang Tinghe was stunned after he finished, compared with Li Dongyang's official position, it was almost equivalent, and he shouldn't have responded like Wang Qiong and Zhong Bin.

Yang Tinghe coughed, deliberately maintained his dignity and said: "When the matter comes, only the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth, everyone should not panic, deal with it calmly, and tide over the difficulties together is the ...... of the moment."

Before he finished speaking, Zhong Bin turned around directly and spit out four words lightly: "Nonsense." Then he walked out of the Qianqing Palace.

Yang Tinghe was so stumped by Zhong Bin's four words that he couldn't say anything anymore, his face was pale, but he didn't know how to vent his anger.

Wang Qiong still gave Yang Ting and face, and said: "What the lord said is that the lower officials will do it immediately." ”

After speaking, Wang Qiong also left.

Yang Tinghe knew that this time things were bad, after leaving the Qianqing Palace, the first thing Yang Tinghe did was to think about how to explain these things to the "Phoenix Lord", after all, Yan Song was recommended by him with all his might.

Yang Tinghe did not return to the palace after leaving the palace, but hurried to Yazhu.

When they arrived at the door of Yazhu, two masters of the Fire Hall stopped Yang Tinghe and said, "Lord Feng said, he knows what you want to say, he doesn't want to see you, let you ask for more blessings, I hope you can tide over the difficulties this time." Otherwise, you are a sinner of the Ming Dynasty. ”

When Yang Tinghe heard this, the whole person was stunned, standing in place like a deflated ball, and the whole person felt a lot older in a trance.

At night, it suddenly began to rain in the capital.

A carriage entered the Jingshi and was walking in the direction of Xiaoyao Villa. The people sitting in the carriage were Jiang Xia and Li Ruliu.

Knowing that something had happened to Jingshi, Jiang Xia sped up and rushed to Jingshi. Finally returned to Jingshi in this night.

After arriving at Xiaoyao Villa, Jiang Xia didn't have time to go back to the backyard, but first sent Li Ruliu to Yi Crab's medicine house.

After a tiring journey, Li Ruliu basically only had his last breath left. In the past, she was vomiting blood, but now she is lethargic.

I slept from morning to night, and each time I woke up, I lasted less than five minutes at most, and then I started to sleep again.

Li Ruliu, who was originally overpowered, now has basically gray hair, and his body is also skinny, looking like a person who is about to die.

sent Li Ruliu to the medicine house, and Yi Crab quickly came to the medicine house from the room where he lived. After seeing Li Ruliu, Yi Crab did not diagnose her immediately, but first opened a secret compartment under his Danding and took out a sandalwood box inside.

There were two pills in the box that seemed to be the size of a baby's fist, Jiang Xia smelled them as soon as he smelled them, he looked at Yi Crab in surprise and said, "Uncle Yi, this is the dragon's blood silver flower that you regard as the root of your life?"

Yi Crab nodded and said, "I knew that your kid would bring people back to me, so I prepared in advance and refined that dragon blood silver flower into these two dragon blood pills."

This Dragon Blood Pill should be able to save her life for two years, and two of them are four years. If you can't find a better medicinal herb than dragon blood honeysuckle after four years, then I'm afraid it will really be a lack of magic. ”

Jiang Xia knew that this dragon's blood honeysuckle was the treasure of the Yi Crab, and it was also the thing that his dead wife had carefully planted after finding it that year, and finally left it to him.

Yi Crab asked Jiang Xia to break Li Ruliu's mouth, and then took out one of the pills and put it in Li Ruliu's mouth.

The pill is very large, and it is impossible for Li Ruliu to swallow it, but the peculiar thing about this pill is that it begins to melt as soon as it reaches Li Ruliu's mouth, and finally naturally turns into a stream of potion and is swallowed by Li Ruliu subconsciously.

Yi Crab stretched out his hand to follow Li Ruliu's pulse, and after waiting for a while, he nodded and said, "The pulse is starting to get stronger, let her rest for a while, her condition will definitely get better and better in the next seven days." You go and rest first, after being away for so long, it is better to come back and see your ladies first. ”

"Yes, Uncle Yi, I'll go first. ”

After speaking, Jiang Xia left the medicine house and returned to the backyard.

Before he could step into the entrance of the backyard, Jiang Xia suddenly heard someone shouting: "I heard that Jiang Xia's kid is back, what about the people?"

As soon as Jiang Xia heard it, he knew that it was Yang Yiqing.

The foot that he had already raised was retracted, Jiang Xia knew that Yang Yiqing had come to Xiaoyao Villa so late when he received the news of his return, it must have been for the loss of Suzhou City.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and Li Ruliu's situation here has not been straightened out, and Daming has such a big deal.

Jiang Xia walked over to meet Yang Yiqing's voice, and as soon as he arrived at the middle courtyard, he saw Yang Yiqing jumping on his feet and shouting: "Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia......"

"Stop shouting, I'm here. Jiangxia said.

Yang Yiqing turned his head to look at Jiang Xia and said, "You kid, don't bow when you see your father-in-law?"

Jiang Xia was not very interested, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know that you came to me for business, let's talk about business first." ”

Yang Yiqing glanced at Jiang Xia angrily, but his expression instantly became serious. "Okay, let's get down to business. ”

The two walked to the main hall and sat down, and the servants immediately brought tea and pastries.

Yang Yiqing saw that Jiang Xia looked tired, and his shoes were still stained with rain and cement, so he asked, "Just entered the house?"

Jiang Xia nodded.

Yang Yiqing said: "With your well-informed, I believe that you should already know about Suzhou, right?"

Jiang Xia nodded again and said: "I know, I said a long time ago that Yan Song is not good, and it is useless to change Mr. Yangming now, after all, his official position is too low to integrate the Shaanxi Army, the Jingying Army and the Suzhou Army, if you want to turn the situation around, I am afraid you have to go to a big man." ”

"yes, you talk a lot. I have to go to a big man, if you don't come back, I'm ready to personally ask for orders to go to Liangzhou Wei. Yang Yiqing said.

Jiang Xia looked at Yang Yiqing and knew what Yang Yiqing meant. After being silent for a while, he shook his head and said, "Father-in-law, I can't go out yet." ”

"Can't go out?" Yang Yiqing frowned, and said, "Or is it because of the woman who gave birth to a son?"

Jiang Xia nodded, "Ruliu's life is in danger now, I can't leave her out." ”

Yang Yiqing bowed slightly after hearing this, and said: "Since this is the case, then the father will not force you, the father will tell Yang Tinghe tomorrow, I will go out in person." ”

Jiang Xia shook his head and said, "Father-in-law, I have absolutely no doubt about your ability to lead troops into battle. But if you go this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover the situation. ”

"Why?" Yang Yiqing asked.

Jiang Xia looked at Yang Yiqing and said: "The reason for Yan Song's defeat this time is that he did not restrain the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp, so that the discipline of the 100,000 troops in the Beijing camp was slack, and finally it was too late to rush to the aid of Jiayu Pass, which caused Jiayu Pass to be broken."

At present, the soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp have suffered heavy casualties, not to mention the morale of the soldiers and generals. The first is that the soldiers have resentment against Yan Song and the imperial court, and the second is that the soldiers will be killed by the army of Turpan.

This is a problem that you alone will not be able to solve. ”

Yang Yiqing was immediately angry when he heard this, and shouted loudly: "If you don't go, I can't go like this, what can't I do." So what do you want to do?

Jiang Xia also ended his sentence for a while, to be honest, he knew very well that there was only one person who was most suitable to turn the tide at the moment, and that was himself.

But Li Ruliu's situation made him unbearable to leave Jingshi like this.

Jiang Xia sighed after thinking about it, let's wait for the Qianqing Palace to discuss politics tomorrow. rg
