Chapter 249: Speak for the Prince?
"Hahaha, what did I say?"
"He Liu Qi thinks very highly of himself, and after some small merits, he began to become arrogant, and now he has finally fallen into a big disaster!"
Yang Wenyuan looked at the letter in his hand, with indescribable pleasure.
The ministers in the hall were in an uproar. looked at Yang Wenyuan with a puzzled face.
After Yang Wenyuan handed over the letter to the ministers to read, everyone was silent for a few seconds, and then suddenly boiled.
"Hahaha, Prime Minister Yang Cheng is really clever, the prince's stupid behavior has completely offended the Huns after all!"
As soon as Jia Siming finished speaking, another minister chimed in.
"Oh my God! Nearly 300,000 troops, which can be said to be all the soldiers and horses of the Huns, almost all of them have been dispatched, since the founding of my Daqing, this is still a situation that has never been before! ”
The other minister snorted coldly, showing a very indignant look.
"Hmph, for such a major matter, my military department has not received any news? He, Liu Qi, actually didn't let the scouts tell the court, and the prince's courage was too big! ”
"What is this, the prince this time, not only did he hide the news of the Huns' attack, but he actually ordered Wood's army in the north not to support Beiping Pass? Just by doing this, it's already a felony! ”
At this time, Jia Siming seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and was stunned. He immediately stood up from his seat.
"Not good! From Pingcheng to here, the news will take seven days at the earliest, so now Beiping Pass will not have been captured, right? ”
"I don't see it, the Huns are fierce, I'm afraid that at this time, they have already invaded the northern border of my Daqing!"
.....
Everyone was talking nonsense, constantly analyzing the danger of this emergency.
What northern territory has fallen, and the Xiongnu are now going to attack Beiping City.
There are even people who say that the army of the Huns will soon be able to fight to Qingdu.
After Yang Wenyuan coughed lightly twice, the noisy atmosphere in the room gradually became quiet.
"To be honest, this time it was also beyond the old man's expectations!"
"The old man's previous plan was to make everyone angry with the Huns, so that when he fought against the prince's army in the future, he would spare no effort to defeat him."
"I never thought that the Huns were so uncontrollable, and they actually sent out so many soldiers and horses to attack my Daqing, and based on this alone, the prince is already considered a sinner in my Daqing!!"
"But he, Liu Qi, is so stupid, such a big thing, he actually conceals it and doesn't report it? Hmph, if it weren't for the news from Yan Wenhu and the Four Princes, I am afraid that I would not have known what happened there until now. ”
When Yang Wenyuan said this, a minister couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"My lord, why did you say the prince did this?"
Before Yang Wenyuan could speak, Jia Siming answered his question.
"Do you even need to think about it? Of course, the crown prince knew that he had caused a big disaster, so he suspiciously concealed the military information and did not let the court know. In this way, when the Xiongnu broke through the pass and entered the north, the prince led the troops to resist, and when the imperial reinforcements arrived, after the Xiongnu were defeated, the prince not only did not pass, but would become a meritorious minister. ”
The ministers sighed for a while when they heard this.
"This prince doesn't take my people in Daqing too seriously!"
"Nonsense! It's just nonsense, for the sake of merit, it has reached the point of madness! ”
"Hmph, the prince is greedy for merit, hasn't it always been like this?"
At this time, Jia Simin spoke again.
"That's right, the prince clearly wants to take this opportunity to win another merit, so that in the eyes of His Majesty, he will become a great hero against the Huns!"
After speaking, his eyes looked at Yang Wenyuan.
"Sir, just say, what are we going to do?"
Yang Wenyuan took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and suddenly put the tea cup on the table, making a "bang" sound.
"Needless to say? Of course, he truthfully told the emperor, didn't the letter also say that the four princes had already written the chapter and came out with Yan Wenhu's letter, presumably now, it was already on the emperor's dragon case. ”
"Yes, report to the emperor, take advantage of this matter to abolish his position as the crown prince of Liu Qi!"
"Abolish the crown prince? Don't you forget, now in the court, but there is still Prince Su, won't he protect the prince? ”
"Hehe, shield the prince? The crime that the crown prince is committing now, but the evidence is conclusive, even if he has the dragon head staff given by the previous emperor in the hands of Prince Su, but don't forget that the role of the dragon head staff is to protect the members of the royal family, not to protect the members of the royal family. ”
"Now that Liu Qi has committed such a serious crime, if he Prince Su dares to take out the dragon head cane and come out, he will be guilty of the same crime as the prince, and at this time, no one can save him Liu Qi!"
"That's right! This time, the crown prince has given us such an opportunity, as long as we work together and make a joint statement to the emperor, we will definitely be able to abolish Liu Qi's position as the crown prince! ”
However, just when everyone was full of righteous indignation, what everyone didn't expect was that Yang Wenyuan, who was sitting on the Taishi chair, narrowed his eyes and shook his head.
While the hall was quiet, everyone's faces were full of doubts.
"No, no, no, according to the old man's opinion, this time we should not only not speak to Your Majesty and abolish Liu Qi's position as the crown prince, but also help the prince speak as much as possible."
"What!? Speak for the Prince? ”
The crowd was amazed.
This kind of opportunity can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the crown prince Liu Qi's crime has been decided, and no one can protect him.
Everyone didn't understand why they didn't take advantage of this time to immediately launch an offensive against the prince, but instead helped him speak.
Some people even think that Prime Minister Yang Cheng can't be wrong, right?
Looking at the puzzled expressions of everyone in the hall, Yang Wenyuan smiled.
"You don't understand this, the old man told you before, this is a plan to kill!"
"Killing?"
Yang Wenyuan stroked his beard and put on an unfathomable look.
"That's right, it's a kill!!"
"Heh, since the prince is now earning meritorious service, then we will follow his wishes, in order to gain our own selfish merits, we will ignore the people and my Daqing territory, this kind of unconscionable thing, if he Liu Qi does it, he will be the first sinner in my Daqing."
"As for what Lord Jia just said, there is no need to worry at all, when the northern border is shattered, we will let the reinforcements advance to exterminate the Huns."
"At this point, not only will the merit be ours, but the crime will fall on his head Liu Qi, at that time, there is no need for us to take action at all to persuade the emperor to abolish Liu Qi's position as the crown prince, and the scholars of Daqing will be punished by the prince, and the people of Daqing will also be angry at the behavior of the prince Liu Qi."
"When the time comes, hmph, even if the emperor has more methods, even if Prince Su has great power, can he still keep the crown prince?"
When everyone heard this, they praised Yang Wenyuan's cleverness.
In this way, he will not end up with a handle against the crown prince, but also establish the image of a loyal minister in the court.
Yang Wenyuan then cleared his throat and suddenly stood up.
"Okay, everyone get ready, we'll meet in Weiyang Palace in an hour!"
"Jia Siming, after leaving me, immediately ask your subordinates to tell the other ministers of the court what is happening in the north now, and what the prince has done at this time!"
......
Poria Palace.
After hearing what Zhang Dehai said, Yang Mi's face suddenly lost color, and the embroidery painting that was tattooed on her hand couldn't help but fall to the ground.
"What? Did the Huns invade my Daqing? For such a major matter, why hasn't the imperial court received any news! ”
Zhang Dehai sighed.
"Yes, Niangniang, this is also what the slave family didn't understand, but I heard that it was all ordered by His Royal Highness, and no one was notified to the court, and now the hundred officials of the court will have to meet the saint in a while, this time, His Highness has caused a big disaster!"
Listening to Zhang Dehai's words, Yang Mi hurriedly paced back and forth in the room.
"What to do? What to do? ”
"This Liu Qi, why didn't he get well for a long time, and he got into such a big trouble!?"
Yang Mi was anxious. Immediately ran to the side of the bookcase.
"Quick, Zhang Dehai, grind for this palace!"
Zhang Dehai hurriedly walked over, but he didn't do it, but bowed slightly and asked Yang Miyan.
"Mother, you are..."
"Do you need to ask? Of course, I sent a message to the prince and told him about the situation here. Now that he has caused such a big disaster, even the emperor can't protect him. ”
"It is imperative that he immediately send a sentinel to report the situation in the north to the imperial court, and just find a reason to say that it is delayed, which is better than him covering up the military situation, right?"
"In addition, let him hurry up and lead troops to support Beiping, and wait for the arrival of imperial reinforcements, if the Xiongnu army invades the territory of Beiping, then the prince will really die!"
Zhang Dehai is the identity of Liu Qi's secret agent, and Yang Mi has already learned about it in a letter with Liu Qi.
And the information that Zhang Dehai has found will not only tell the crown prince Liu Qi now, but also inform Yang Mi first. After Yang Mi's confirmation, he will turn to write a letter and tell Liu Qi, who is far away in Pingcheng.
At this time, before Yang Mi picked up the grinding stone. Zhang Dehai immediately stretched out his hand.
"Mother, don't do it!"
Yang Mi raised her head, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Why not?"
"Niangniang, now the prince's situation is unexpected, Yi Nu thought to herself, His Royal Highness is not a stupid person, he must have other purposes for doing this, and we will wait quietly."
"Now the whole court, especially... Lord Yang and the others are all staring at the crown prince, I am afraid that any news will be noticed by those who are interested. ”
"It's easy to pass on letters, but at this juncture, if this letter you sent is intercepted, won't the prince even have a backhand?"
When Yang Mi heard this, she felt that what Zhang Dehai said made some sense.
The retinue's brush is still on the bookcase.
"Then you say, what should I do? You can't just watch the prince ignore the danger, right? ”
However, Zhang Dehai smiled.
"Mother, the slave has a way!"
