Verse 11: The Ten Day Covenant
Emperor Tianwu, accompanied by the eunuchs, slowly walked into the Ming Palace, and saw the old prime minister Wang Cheng at first sight. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Emperor Tianwu was a little surprised that this guy he was most afraid of actually came.
Emperor Tianwu sighed in his heart.
For this old minister who served the emperor, grandfather, and his father, he had to give him some face.
But presumably the old guy must have come here for the matter of Xu Ziying. Emperor Tianwu naturally knew that many of the silent officials below knew the news of the complete destruction of Xu Ziying before himself.
can make the old prime minister who has long been out of court mobilize the people, it seems that this matter has to be dealt with well, but Zhang Zhiyuan's death is an exciting thing.
Sitting high on the dragon chair made of pure gold, Emperor Tianwu seemed to be enjoying all this.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live......" the ministers worshipped.
The old prime minister Wang Cheng bowed slightly to show his respect for the royal family and his majesty the emperor.
Emperor Zhao Taifu is the same, bowing slightly, but unlike the old prime minister, he is proud in his heart, in the current court, who has such courtesy?
Of course, even the arrogant national pillar Feng Zhaoran had to bow his head.
But that pillar Feng Zhaoran is a madman, a guy that even His Majesty the Emperor is afraid of.
With three military and criminal departments in hand, just one military department can make Feng Zhaoran run rampant, not to mention the terrifying criminal department.
Guozhu Feng Zhaoran bowed his head, because he wanted to bow his head, if he didn't bow his head, how many people would dare to talk nonsense?
Unless he doesn't want to be on the head.
Two years ago, Wu Zhuangyuan Yue Xiao showed the top ten crimes of Feng Zhaoran, but Feng Zhaoran just smiled slightly, a sentence can you do everything to me, even Emperor Tianwu didn't dare to say anything, who else dared to fight Feng Zhaoran?
"Zhong Aiqing is flat!" Emperor Tianwu seemed to be particularly excited, the news of Xu Ziying's total annihilation did not hit him, for him, the news of Zhang Zhiyuan's death was a god-sent gospel.
The hundred officials got up and didn't dare to speak, everyone knew what was happening, but no one was the first to say it.
There was silence for a moment, and the first to break the silence was the eunuch beside Emperor Tianwu.
"Something to start, nothing to retreat!" The eunuch just routinely made his own accusations, he knew very well that what he said was in vain, but this group of officials underneath, which one is not an old and refined figure?
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the Northwest Wilderness. "In the end, this matter has to be said by the military department.
"Is there news in the Northwest Wilderness? Xu Ziying has made another military exploit?" Emperor Tianwu pretended to be stupid and still kept smiling.
"This ......" The military department Shangshu was a little incredulous, presumably His Majesty the Emperor should know the news, but why did he pretend not to know?
After being silent for a moment, the military department Shangshu couldn't guess the thoughts of Emperor Tianwu, and the military department Shangshu no longer hesitated.
"The Xu Zi Battalion was wiped out under the large-scale invasion of the vassal army, and Zhang Zhiyuan, the leader of the Xu Zi Battalion, was killed in battle!"
There are quite a few officials who know about this, but there are still some who are not clear.
Those who knew were calm enough, and those who had not yet learned gasped.
The entire army of Xu Ziying was wiped out?Could it be that the feudal army really wanted to start a war with the Heavenly Spirit Dynasty?
"Oh, the Xu Zi Battalion is completely wiped out, and the domain army has such a strong combat power?" Emperor Tianwu pretended to be very similar, his surprised expression was beyond words, and his frowning brows seemed to be because of the annihilation of the Xu Zi Battalion and the death of Zhang Zhiyuan.
"Back to Your Majesty, a demon girl suddenly appeared in the feudal army, and everyone in the vanguard camp of the feudal army seemed to be enchanted, and they even bit people when they caught them, like a group of crazy guys. Under the leadership of General Zhang, the Xu Zi battalion fought bravely to kill the enemy, although the Xu Zi battalion could be one enemy and ten, but it was only 3,000 men and horses, but it was never the opponent of the vanguard battalion of the feudal army that did not want to charge forward, and finally ....... "The military department Shangshu is obviously very familiar with the news of the total destruction of the Xu Zi battalion.
As the first person under Guozhu, the military department Shangshu is obviously a talent, he actually knew the news three days ago, and it was very detailed, but according to Feng Zhaoran's instructions, he did not start it.
Feng Zhaoran had a plan, he sent seven groups of men and horses to the northwest wilderness, so he confidently said outside the noon gate that the feudal army would retreat within ten days, but he didn't have all the hopes pinned on that group of people in the rivers and lakes, but said that after ten days, the feudal army would not retreat and he would personally conquer and fight.
Guozhu Feng Zhaoran can get to his current position, how can he not have some wisdom?
Can you say domineeringly in front of the emperor What can you do to me, why don't you have a few brushes?
Emperor Tianwu listened to the explanation of the military department Shangshu and nodded, but he had an understanding of some things in the northwest wilderness.
"The Xu Zi Battalion has guarded the Northwest Wilderness for my Tianling Dynasty for more than 50 years, and has a great record, and now it has been destroyed, and I am very sad, and I am specially named the Xu Zi Camp as the first battalion of my Tianling Dynasty. ”
"In addition, General Zhang was posthumously named the protector of the country of my Tianling Dynasty. ”
Emperor Tianwu said slowly, his voice extremely sad.
"Your Majesty is wise!" the hundred officials praised in unison.
"Your Majesty, the feudal army has invaded this time, and my Heavenly Spirit Dynasty should deal with it. The old prime minister looked at the Tianwu Emperor who only knew sorrow.
"Lord Wang, I haven't seen you for a while, I don't know if your body is still healthy?" Emperor Tianwu didn't care about Wang Cheng's words, but asked the old prime minister's physical condition.
"Thanks to Your Majesty's concern, the old minister's body is still acceptable. When the old prime minister heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile, and then stepped aside and said no more. He knew Emperor Tianwu's intentions.
It's just that I have a little more appreciation for this hairy boy in my heart.
Wang Cheng, who has served three generations of emperors, saw this guy born with his own eyes, then grew up year by year, and then ascended to the throne.
The little guy who seems to be idle on weekdays, but he won the final victory, it was a bloody decisive battle, this guy was ruthless, and killed all his brothers and brothers with his own hands.
Afterwards, it was just a sentence, the winner is the king, and the loser dies!
That scene, only this old prime minister, who is a very popular minister, knows that this little guy who calls himself Emperor Tianwu has a ruthlessness in his bones, and even the national pillar Feng Zhaoran has to bow down in front of Emperor Tianwu, but he always buries this matter in his heart, otherwise, he would have returned to dust and dust a long time ago, how can he still stand in this Ming Zheng Hall and discuss with hundreds of officials?
It's a pity that the old prime minister is wrong at the moment, the Tianwu Emperor in front of him is not the one he was back then.
"Your Majesty, I have something to tell you. Guozhu Feng Zhaoran took a step forward and arched his hand.
"Oh? "Emperor Tianwu is very important, or he is very afraid of this pillar of the country who holds the military power in his hands.
"The feudal army has invaded the wilderness in the northwest of our country this time, it must have been prepared for a long time, and the ministers who got the news must also know that the commander of the feudal army this time is the princess of the feudal country, that is a strange woman, who holds the military power of the feudal country, and it will only take one year to defeat the barbarians and obey them, what I want to say is, if this expedition, which general can be the commander of this important task to face the princess of the feudal country?" Feng Zhaoran turned around and looked at Baiguandao.
"It's not that I look down on you, it's just that even I am not a little sure that I can say that I can defeat that strange woman in leading the troops in battle, everyone present, you pat your heart and ask yourself, who can be the opponent of that princess?" Feng Zhaoran continued.
Silence, the silence of death in the Ming main hall.
The princess of the vassal kingdom is like Feng Zhaoran, the current national pillar, holding military power.
However, unlike Feng Zhaoran, the strange woman of the vassal country is the princess of the vassal country, and she is a person who can rightfully inherit the unification of the vassal country, but because of a female stream, it has added countless difficulties to her.
Feng Zhaoran has no ambition to be the emperor, this is a well-known thing, if he had that ambition, he would have ascended to the throne a long time ago, but he never had it.
He was bent on exterminating the martial arts, and no one knew why. So even if he offended countless people in the government and the opposition, even if he held the military power, no one wanted to destroy him, not only because he had strength, but also because he did not have the ambition to pursue supreme power, and the most important thing was that he would not attack the people in the government and the opposition, even Wu Zhuangyuan, who was listed as one of the top ten crimes of the national pillars, was not issued after only being imprisoned for two years, Feng Zhaoran would not kill anyone, to be precise, he would not kill people in the government and the opposition.
Although Feng Zhaoran's words are not good, they are the truth.
Even the emperor Zhao Taifu, who had been against the national pillar Feng Zhaoran, was silent.
"Then I wonder if the National Pillar will be able to go to the battlefield again?" asked Emperor Tianwu.
For Emperor Tianwu, he valued Feng Zhaoran very much, he was a little afraid of Feng Zhaoran, but he knew that he and Feng Zhaoran had the same purpose.
Destroy the forces in the rivers and lakes, he has been assassinated many times, all of them are done by the people in the rivers and lakes, Feng Zhaoran's purpose, everyone in the world knows, but no one knows the reason, but he knows it very well.
"Your Majesty, we might as well wait for ten days, I believe that even if the wilderness of the northwest falls, the army guarding the northwest can resist the feudal army for ten days, I will let the feudal army withdraw within these ten days, if the feudal army does not retreat after ten days, then I will personally take command and crusade against the feudal country." ”
Baiguan had heard these words outside the noon gate, and he didn't have any opinions, but Emperor Tianwu hadn't heard it, and he was silent for a while, maybe he was thinking about the pros and cons of gain and loss.
"What do you want to do?" Emperor Tianwu seems to trust Feng Zhaoran very much, of course, in the court, who else can he trust besides Feng Zhaoran? The old prime minister Wang Cheng is a capable minister who can rule the world, and he can arrange troops to fight? Zhao Taifu is a scholar, since he can't go to the battlefield in person, Shen Xuan Pavilion is the institutional department of the imperial court to govern the rivers and lakes, and it is impossible to go to the battlefield to meet the enemy, as for the three famous generals of the dynasty, outside the northwest wilderness, there is one, has been guarding there, 100,000 troops, in order to suppress the feudal state, as for the other two are in the South China Sea, east departure, each leading 80,000 horses to prevent barbarians, Di country.
There is really no one else in the DPRK who can take on this handsome talent, except for the national pillar Feng Zhaoran.
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you say it, as early as three days ago, I got a secret report about the complete destruction of Xu Ziying. As soon as Feng Zhaoran's words came out, he caused the Manchu Dynasty to be shocked.
Three days ago, if you look at it according to the fast horse, three days ago, the news at that time should have just spread in the Northwest Wilderness.
But Guozhu Feng Zhaoran got the news three days ago, how can this not be shocking?
"So what are you going to do?" asked the old prime minister, Wang Cheng, who was the first to wake up from the shock.
"In the past three days, I have found three groups of people from the rivers and lakes to go to the northwest wilderness to carry out assassinations. Feng Zhaoran said confidently.
"Three batches of assassinations, is it to kill the princess of the vassal kingdom?" the old prime minister asked in surprise.
Guozhu Feng Zhaoran smiled but did not answer.
Emperor Tianwu looked at Feng Zhaoran's confident appearance, but he felt a lot more relieved, although the princess of the vassal kingdom has sprung up, but my Tianling Dynasty has no shortage of strange people, the national pillar Feng Zhaoran, came from the fishing village ten years ago, and now under one person, above ten thousand people, it is not something that a little woman can resist.
"Okay, I believe in your national pillar, but the military department still has to be prepared for battle. "Emperor Tianwu finally made a decision.
"Your Majesty, Xie!" Guozhu Feng Zhaoran retreated after speaking.
And Mrs. Zhao, who had been fighting the main battle, originally wanted to put forward the opinion of the rest of the first battle, but when he heard that Feng Zhaoran got the news three days ago, he dismissed this plan.
As for Shen Xuange, who was standing behind the six Shangshu, the two of them had been silent, as if they had been forgotten.
The huge war, in the eyes of the national pillar, is just a trivial matter.
After the morning dynasty, the hundred officials dispersed, and the old prime minister was accompanied by Emperor Tianwu under the holy order of Emperor Tianwu to share lunch.
The military department Shangshu began to prepare for the war, while the national pillar Feng Zhaoran walked out of the west gate of the spiritual capital with one person and one horse, and went straight to the northwest wilderness along the official road.
