Chapter 862: Jikang enters the city
() In the Jardine Palace of the Imperial Palace, the Empress Wang walked around the main hall with an anxious face, only Liang Wendao and Chen Ping knelt respectfully and came out, while the other courtiers knelt outside the main hall one by one, and no one dared to speak.
"Why haven't you come, why haven't you come. ”
The queen Wang couldn't sit down anxiously, she didn't know how many times she asked, but she still didn't receive the news from the west.
Liang Wendao, who was kneeling on the ground, was anxious, and could only persuade: "The queen mother, please be restless, just a few days, it should be coming." ”
"How can this palace not be in a hurry!" Empress Wang glanced at the outside of the hall again, but still didn't see the person who sent the message, and lamented: "You don't know, yesterday Lianshan sent someone to send an urgent report overnight, saying that according to Mu Yuntian and the Dongfang family, the army has been closed to the north of Qiuxi Gorge, a full army of more than 60,000 people, how can the more than 20,000 people under General Lian withstand it!"
"If Qiuxi Gorge is broken, then our 50,000 elites in Yongzhou will be in a dilemma!"
Speaking of which, the queen Wang family looked back at Wei Xi on the bed, but Wei Xi was still like that, there was no sign of waking up, she could only be fed decoction by herself every day to continue her life, the queen Wang family was simply exhausted these days, if it weren't for the harem and the ministers counting on her, she couldn't rest assured that Wei Xi, I am afraid that her body would have fallen down a long time ago.
Queen Wang has grown up with Wei Xi since she was a child, and she really has feelings, even if she knows that Wei Xi's heart is just Hua Feiyu, but she is still focused on Wei Xi, for her, Wei Xi is her own world.
Chen Ping knelt down and said: "Queen Mother, don't worry, you are relieved, you think so, if those rebels have begun to attack Qiuxi Gorge today, Lianshan will definitely send us a warning, now that it has reached Zhenwu, there is still no message from the direction of Qiuxi Gorge, obviously those rebellions have not made any moves, and today should be spent safely." ”
"Now whether it is Your Majesty or the ministers of the court, they are all counting on you, the queen mother, don't be impatient, you must take care of the phoenix body. ”
"Please take care of the phoenix body and don't worry. ”
"Please take care of the phoenix body and don't worry. ”
"Please take care of the phoenix body and don't worry. ”
......
The civil and military ministers who knelt down outside the hall also stood up and sang one by one, and now they have no other way but to pin their hopes on the elite of the dark fifty thousand Yongzhou.
At this moment, the gate of the Jardine Palace was suddenly pushed open, and the commander of the Praetorian Guards on duty outside the hall was shocked, and the Praetorian Guards under his command were even more subconsciously about to step forward to arrest this guy who didn't know how to be polite, but when they saw the comers, they hurriedly made way one by one!
Followed by
, The ministers who knelt down also turned their heads in unison in an instant, watching this figure rush all the way past him, and rushed directly to the Jardine Palace.
This is the herald! The herald from the west!
The herald hurriedly ran up to the Empress Wang, and after kneeling down and saluting, he said happily while dressing roughly: "Empress Niang, General Jikang has led 50,000 Yongzhou elites to cross the Guanhe estuary, and now he is constantly marching towards Yanjing, and it is estimated that he will arrive at Yanjing in the early hours of this morning!"
"General Jikang asked the villain to come first to report the news, so that the queen mother can rest assured!"
"Good! good!"
Queen Wang said three good words in a row, and the anxiety in her heart was finally put down, and she almost cried with joy, and the crystal dew swirled in her eyes, and a puff of water fell from the corners of her eyes.
"Queen Mother, this is the heavens protecting my Great Wei!"
Yan Zhendao's eyes were also filled with tears with emotion, and he said hurriedly: "Empress Niang, General Ji Kang was able to rush to Yanjing in such a short time, and he must have insisted on it day and night at any cost! Wei Chen suggested that it was better to promote Ji Kang to the city patrol governor of Yanjing at a critical moment, and the right to lead the defense of the outer city of the eye. ”
When the Empress Wang heard this, she hesitated slightly.
Chen Ping stepped up and said: "Queen Mother, I know that you are worried, but it is urgent, and what Lord Liang said is not wrong, and now Yanjing's patrol and defense order is taken by His Majesty himself, so naturally there is no need to transfer it again." But after all, Master Chang was born recklessly and cultivated to a high level, but if he talks about marching and fighting, he may not be able to compare with General Jikang. ”
"Isn't there still General Lianshan?" said the queen Wang.
"Yes, so it's just to give General Jikang a city patrol governor, and the city patrol governor order will continue to be handed over to General Lianshan, so that the two can cooperate with each other, so that Your Majesty and the queen can sit back and relax. ”
"Besides, after all, the soldiers under General Jikang were brought out by him. ”
Chen Ping said that Liang Wendao also nodded frequently, but in the end, it still depends on the decision of the queen Wang.
It stands to reason that the promotion of these generals must be handed over to His Majesty personally, and if His Majesty cannot dispose of it, it will be handed over to the Prime Minister and the ministers to discuss and decide, and the Empress is not allowed to interfere in politics. But out of respect for the Empress Wang's family, Liang Wendao and Chen Ping still asked the Empress Wang's for instructions on everything, which made the Empress Wang's very satisfied with this these days.
According to the laws of the Great Wei Dynasty, the defense power in the palace was handed over to Xu Changhe, the president of the palace Praetorian Guard, and the patrol guard order was to lead the defense and daily stability of the entire Yanjing inner city, and the city patrol governor order was to order the defense of the entire Yanjing outer city.
The Governor of the City
is a cut shorter than the three of them, and he is only the deputy of the city patrol governor's order, and he can't even interfere in the defense of the inner city, so his position is slightly lower. Before, because there had been no war near Yanjing at all, even the position of city patrol governor was a little idle, not to mention the city patrol governor, which was directly concurrently held by Lian Shan.
In today's situation, it is not impossible to give him a patrol captain.
Thinking so, Empress Wang nodded: "Lord Liang, this matter will be handled by you, and General Ji Kang must understand that His Majesty and the palace attach great importance to him, and he must not slack off." ”
"Yes, Wechen understands. Liang Wendao responded.
The night came as scheduled, and Liang Wendao, Chen Ping and a group of Wenchen generals came to the city gate tower of the west gate of Yanjing City early after dinner, so as to look at the west.
I don't know why, the sky is dark today, and there is still a bright moon in the sky like last night, as if there are thick clouds covering the bright moon tightly, and there is not a single star and a little bit of light.
Ascending to the heights and looking into the distance, there is only an infinite darkness.
When he finally got the son, just when many of the Wenchen generals had begun to doze off, they suddenly heard a shout from Chen Ping!
"Look, look!"
Liang Wendao is very old, and someone has already made a reclining chair and futon for him to sleep on the city gate. Now that he heard Chen Ping's surprise call, his whole body bounced up from the recliner in an instant, and he was so agile that he didn't speak at all!
Following Chen Ping's gaze, Liang Wendao looked into the distance, only to see a light like a spark emerging from the darkness in the distance, like a firefly, misty and vague. Then, more and more lights came from afar, and finally converged on the road to the Yanjing City.
The countless comings seemed to converge into a long river, even if they were far away, but also let many civil and military generals sketch in their minds the magnificent scene of the march of 10,000 people.
For a while, everyone on the city gate tower cried with joy, and many Wenchen couldn't help hugging each other. After so many days of suffering, they finally waited for reinforcements from Yongzhou, and finally they didn't have to worry about it anymore.
At this time, no one is unhappy, even some people with other thoughts are happy from the bottom of their hearts at this moment. As for whether you want to make a big splash here and write your ambitions, or if you just want to be rich and prosperous for a lifetime and enjoy wealth and glory, none of this matters!
The important thing is that no matter what, Yanjing is saved, and their future is also saved.
Liang Wendao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Come on, open the city gate for me and welcome General Jikang into the city!"
