What Li Qi didn't expect was that Yan Yunzhou hadn't gone to the court until today, he thought that all the foreign clans had already come to Suizhou City, and with Yan Yunzhou's style, even if he didn't need the courtiers to speak today, he would go to the bottom of the stairs to ask for battle, didn't he come? Could it be that Yan Yunzhou is really dying?

"Your Majesty, the Flame King's Mansion is responsible for guarding the northern border, and Prince Yan has been stationed in the northern border for many years, and there is no one in the court who is more suitable to take command than Prince Yan."

"Master Li, Prince Yan is seriously ill, and everyone in the capital knows about it, do you have other intentions for persecution like this, or does it reflect that there is really no one in my court?"

"Lord Song, don't spray people with blood, I'm just talking about things."

In the council hall, everyone was arguing with their own little calculations, and Su Beicheng and his father Su Taiwei glanced at each other and then came out to play:

"Your Majesty, this northern border is indeed lacking a commander, but now it is not only a lack of a commander, as the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, the military expenses of the 120,000 soldiers in the north are still detained by the household Li Shilang, how can we talk about resisting the enemy? For the sake of the present plan, it is necessary to immediately raise food and wages from the Ministry of Households, and now transport it to the north. ”

After speaking, he glanced at the vacant position of the Tobe squire, and spoke again:

"Your Majesty, Lord Li, the head of the household department, is sick, but the affairs of this household department cannot be left undone, and now that the war is imminent, Lord Li may not be able to take on the heavy responsibility, and the minister thinks that another person should be selected to be responsible for the raising of military salaries."

After saying this, there were many courtiers who reconsidered, Li Kun has been sick in the mansion since he lost such a big person in the Yanwang Mansion, and the household servant is fat and poor, and this time is the best time to pull Li Kun down.

Li Kun's affairs in the Flame King's Mansion naturally couldn't be concealed from the one sitting on the dragon chair, and his heart became more and more unscrupulous and disgusted with Yan Yunzhou's actions, he originally thought that Yan Yunzhou would never sit idly by and ignore the war in the north, as long as he invited him to fight, he would naturally be able to push the boat along the river, but now that he has not even gone to the court, if he rashly ordered the seriously ill Prince Yan to go on the expedition, I am afraid it will not be reasonable.

At this moment, in the Flame King's Mansion, Ning Yi was changing the dressing for the wound on Yan Yunzhou's leg, and the allicin was naturally applied to the wound again, Yan Yunzhou tilted his head sideways, his eyebrows were slightly twisted, and his face showed patience:

"Do you want to use this thing every time?"

Because of drinking that allicin this morning, Yan Yunzhou has no appetite for anything now, and now he doesn't even let go of his legs?

"This thing is very precious, and I need to use it every day before removing the stitches."

Someone kept reporting the situation in the court, and Ning couldn't help but ask after changing the medicine:

"The court and the central government are fighting so hard over whether you can go on an expedition or not, can the emperor directly order you to go on an expedition?"

Yan Yunzhou looked at him:

"Naturally not, he expected that I would take the initiative to ask for battle, and when the time comes, he will agree to push the boat along the river, and he can also get a good reputation as a compassionate hero."

Ning Qi also figured out the twists and turns here, after all, Yan Yunzhou was said to be sick in the mansion, and it was also the kind of illness that was sick in the eyes of others and needed to be happy, in this case, as long as he didn't take the initiative to speak, even the emperor couldn't give a direct order.

After all, it is unreasonable for a foreigner to send a dying prince to the expedition, so this matter can only be said by Yan Yunzhou first:

"So you're waiting?"

Yan Yunzhou leaned on the couch and nodded slightly:

"The war between the two armies is not child's play, since the lives of the border soldiers are in my hands, I cannot let them die because of fearless fighting, and I will not fight for a day if the DPRK and China are not well prepared."

"Then aren't you afraid that Suizhou really won't be able to survive for so many days?"

The idea of the one in the palace was to make Yan Yunzhou and the foreign clan lose both, or he was very confident that Yan Yunzhou would defeat the foreign clan, he wanted to let the foreign clan exhaust Yan Yunzhou's life, and it was best to fight the 120,000 northern army left, this was his real purpose.

Yan Yunzhou sighed deeply:

"Suizhou is the last city outside the Wuzhou Mountain, the place of fortresses, I left a barrier in that place, even if it is a last resort, there is always room for contention."

Ning guessed that what he left behind was probably gunpowder, and now he finally understood why Yan Yunzhou held such a terrible thing in his hand but never handed it over to the imperial court, as far as the current emperor was...

"I have a question, if I ask, don't blame the prince?"

When Yan Yunzhou opened his eyes, he saw that Ning Qi's eyes were full of irrepressible curiosity:

"Just ask."

Ning Zhi organized the language as follows:

"I have heard that the first emperor recovered the Western Regions, sent troops to the south, fought more than ten small countries in the south called the minister Nagong, the southern conquest and the northern war laid the foundation of today's Liang, the first emperor is eloquent, and the martial arts are very good, but compared to the first emperor, it is really... Why did the emperor make him the crown prince? ”

This is really the point that Ning Yi can't understand the most, he has been in this era for a while, and he has heard a lot about the merits of the former emperor from others, he can resist the enemy outside, open the territory and secure the territory, and he can select talents and talents inside, and the politics is clear, such an emperor is enough to be called the holy lord of the Ming monarch even in the history he knows, why did he choose such a son to succeed him?

Yan Yunzhou didn't expect him to ask such a question, Ning Ji looked at him, this was indeed a bit too much in ancient times:

"You said I was going to ask."

Yan Yunzhou spoke directly:

"The emperor never made him the crown prince."

Rather blame the head:

"Not the Prince?"

Yan Yunzhou looked at him and slowly spoke as if he didn't know anything, and there seemed to be regret in his eyes:

"The first emperor has a total of four princes, and now this one on the dragon chair is the third prince, Jingde eight years, the first emperor has not yet established the eldest son of the Yuan Hou as the crown prince, called Prince Duanyi.

The first emperor was frail, and died when Prince Duanyi was less than ten years old, Prince Duanyi was raised by the first emperor, quite a prince, the name is outside, the outside can be the world, the inside can set the hearts of the people, the government and the opposition are naturally convinced, the first emperor was in bed when he was relieved to supervise the country, but no one thought that Prince Duanyi would die because of a typhoid fever that was not treated in time. ”

Ning Qi was quite sorry when he heard this, and Yan Yunzhou sighed:

"In those two years, the first emperor's health gradually deteriorated, and the death of Prince Duanyi made his body worse, the second prince Li Ran broke his leg when he was young, and he was naturally unable to inherit the unification when he was disabled, and the fourth prince Li Chong was only ten years old at the time, and he was still young, so the first emperor had almost no choice but to make an edict to succeed to the throne of the third son Li Qi."

Ning Zhi had mixed feelings after listening:

"This, isn't this a bargain?"

Yan Yunzhou was amused by his statement, but it was indeed the same truth:

"Today's His Majesty's mother was not in a high position, and she was not favored, there was Prince Duanyi in front, and the former emperor had never taught other princes the way to be kings, and when His Majesty ascended the throne, his maternal family, the Wei family, had no foundation in the court.

Over the years, the Wei family has risen step by step, and everyone in the clan is on the rise, naturally this majesty is now promoted, Wei Zhenhe is not a decent person, he has formed a party wantonly, and many courtiers in the court dare not provoke the people of the Wei family, but this majesty still does not know moderation, and his relatives are autocratic, how can the society be stable? ”

Ning Qi also sighed, this emperor is simply missing the upper position, and his virtue is not worthy of the position, no wonder he can play a stupid trick to make the border army and foreign tribes die together, his throne is picked up, and he is naturally afraid of losing it all the time, in his eyes, the people of Daliang, the subjects of the world are not as important as him sitting on the throne.

The first emperor had four sons, one was disabled and one was young, and the disabled must still be disabled now, but the young one should have grown up now:

"That King Jingjun, is he the fourth son of the emperor?"

When Yan Yunzhou saw him ask like this, he knew that he had figured it out:

"That's right, after ascending the throne today, the fourth son of the emperor who was only ten years old was sent to the bitter cold Yanzhou, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing without a call, and for so many years, the king of Jingjun has never returned to the capital."

Ning Ji remembered the map he saw in Yan Yunzhou's study yesterday, although Yanzhou is not like a border city like Suizhou, but that place is far away from the center, and it can be regarded as a barren place in this era, so this emperor is also guarding against this younger brother.

So now it seems that if Yan Yunzhou really rebels, I am afraid that he will support this King of Jingjun.

On the evening of the second day after the operation, Yan Yunzhou said something that made Director Ning angry:

"Yu'an, I want to go to court tomorrow."

Ning Yao's eyes widened:

"What? Going to court? The wound on your leg has only been stitched up for two days. ”

Yan Yunzhou also looked down at the wound on his leg:

"This matter can't be dragged on forever, and the quartermaster king can't just ask, just once, and he won't go to the morning after tomorrow."

Ning Qi lowered his head and examined his wound, he stitched it neatly, and the healing was good:

"How long will it take? You can't stand for long. ”

"An hour."

Ning Yi is simply speechless, an hour? Two hours? This TM is longer than two large classes.

"What did the prince say to me? If I say I can't go, don't you really go? ”

Yan Yunzhou smiled:

"I still have to talk to the doctor."

Rather... Should he thank him and blame him for respecting him?

The next day, Yan Yunzhou didn't get up too early, Ning Ji got up early to check the wound for him again, and asked:

"How long does it take to get from the palace to the palace?"

"Two quarters of an hour."

Ning blamed the time:

"I'll go with you and help fix your wound before you enter the palace."

After all, Yan Yunzhou's injuries are not only flesh wounds, but also the muscles inside, so it is best to fix them.

The subordinates came in to serve the two of them to freshen up, Ning Ji looked at the waiter on the side and put on the court clothes, this was the first time he saw Yan Yunzhou wearing a formal first-class pro-dynasty dress, Liuyun court clothes were embroidered with four-clawed gold pythons, the embroidery was delicate and delicate, comparable to peerless handicrafts, covered with purple silk yarn, a gilded jade belt of the same color was tied around the waist, long black hair was tied up high, fixed with a jade crown, the body was slender and handsome, the momentum of Zhou's body was no longer able to hide the innate nobility, and even people did not dare to look directly.

Ning Qi sat on the frame of the palace and watched Yan Yunzhou enter the gate of the Zhengyang Palace.

Prince Yan, who has been ill for a long time, reappeared in the court today, Prince Yipin, standing in front of the hundred officials, and the controversy of the past two days has been extinguished again with his appearance.

Yan Yunzhou's steps were a little lame, and even his face was pale and scary, but no one dared to look down on him because of this, he looked directly at the people in the seat, Li Qi felt a little uneasy every time he was looked at by Yan Yunzhou like this, but he hated this uneasiness very much, he was the emperor, he was the lord of the Great Liang, but he had never seen his submission to him in Yan Yunzhou's eyes.

Yan Yunzhou arched his hand, and his voice resounded in the main hall:

"Your Majesty, Beimu and Chen Bing of the Qiang tribe are outside Suizhou City, and the ministers are willing to ask for war, but Your Majesty also knows that the ministers have been sick for a long time, so the ministers ask Your Majesty to send General Wei Changqing Wei as the deputy general of Weichen and go to the north together."

Wei Changqing raised his head suddenly, and even Wei Zhenhe's pupils shrank, Yan Yunzhou wanted Wei Changqing to be a deputy general, this was obviously to let Wei Changqing be a hostage.

The author has something to say:

Tomorrow will go on the expedition, there will be a high-energy plot

Now the prince knows that he has spoken to Director Ning, and he is still teachable

Chapter 39: If You Can't Go? I'll carry you

Everyone in the DPRK and China knows that in the assassination case against Yan Yunzhou a while ago, Wei Changqing was the biggest suspect in the Dali Temple, but because of His Majesty's pressure, this case has been dragged out again and again, and now Yan Yunzhou has named Wei Changqing as the deputy general, and the north is Yan Yunzhou's people, and no one can say whether Wei Changqing will end up with Li Hong if he really arrives in the north.

But this matter can't be delayed, in order to seize the military power, His Majesty has wantonly promoted the Wei family of the foreign family, and Wei Changqing is already a martial artist and the uncle of His Majesty today, and he is also in charge of the soldiers, the position of this deputy general is really not easy to refuse, Li Qi looked at the people below:

"It's okay, according to Prince Yan's performance, this way to the north in case of accidents, Wei Qing led a 10,000-strong city guard army to escort Prince Yan all the way to the north."

Yan Yunzhou's lips seemed to be a little cold, and he raised his eyes and spoke:

"Your Majesty, if the 10,000 soldiers are only to escort Weichen, it will be overkill, and there are less than 20,000 guards in Suizhou, so it is better for these 10,000 guards to stay in Suizhou."

Li Qi's mind is turning, it may not be harmless for 10,000 city guards to stay in Suizhou City, although the northern border is known as 120,000 troops, but in fact, it will not be too many to be assigned to individual cities, this 10,000 city guards have always been under the command of Wei Changqing, and they can be placed in the north just in case.

"Okay, just follow the performance of Prince Yan."

Yan Yunzhou finally said the most important thing:

"Your Majesty, who is responsible for the food, grass and military salaries in this war in the north?"
