It is not good to be too smart. Zhao Bing easily cracked this shocking "conspiracy", which also made him confused. If he did not find out the "master hand" behind the scenes, the matter might become more and more serious. But if the lid was opened, would he arrest these "good-minded people" or be removed from office and investigated? Obviously, it was not appropriate. Therefore, he could only take passive confrontation, reduce the chances of leaving the government and exposing it, and secretly sent spies from the Bureau of Affairs to arrest several small leaders, intending to shock the tiger so that they could understand their meaning and not cause trouble on their backs. But no matter what, he had been pushed to the forefront of history.
After February, Zhao Bing ordered the navy to increase the patrol density of the straits and drive out all ships near the Qiongzhou military port. He carried out reconnaissance of the enemy troops in Qinzhou and Lianzhou to prepare for harassment. At the same time, the infantry and cavalry also entered spring training, focusing on anti-mountain 6 combat training and maneuvering drills across the island so that the enemy troops can quickly concentrate their forces while holding on to Qiongzhou. Since he had no intention of landing in Qiongzhou, he used all the baggage troops that expanded the new city to renovate the post road and the military station, and strive to complete the construction before the rainy season.
Chen Yizhong, who had been to Cham City for more than a month, still showed no sign of returning. The news came that as Zhao Bing had expected, Cham City was not interested in Xingchao's plan to come, and was also very cold to the prime minister of the sect leader, let alone send troops to help, which made Chen Yi who was confident of going to Cham City. The good news was that Wang Daofu and Ling Zhen, who broke through after the fall of Guangzhou, took advantage of Liu Shen's defeat and retake the city, so that Xingchao was temporarily exempted from being attacked by the flanks.
However, the good times did not last long. Ali Hague, a political official in Guangxi Province of the Yuan Dynasty, suddenly sent troops to attack Leizhou, and Zeng Yuanzi lost to Leizhou. What made it worse was that he was wandering in the waters of Leizhou waiting for Chen Yizhong's journey to the convoy. Suddenly, he was hit by a strong wind and fell into the water. Jiang Wanzai tried hard to rescue His Majesty, but he was swept away by the waves and disappeared. The convoy also suffered heavy losses, and two or three of the storms were destroyed. The convoy was forced to turn to the island of Juzhou to board 6 for a while...
"Now Ali Hague has collected all the prefectures and counties on the south road of Guangxi, and the straits are confronting us. The court suffered heavy losses in the hurricane, the palace commander died, and took refuge in the island of Zhuzhou. What do you think?" The situation suddenly deteriorated, and Zhao Bing summoned all the officials in the mansion to discuss matters, and he informed the situation straight to the point.
"Your Highness, the emperor wants to go to Zizhou Island to collect the bones of his uncle, move the coffin and retire to Ding You. I hope your highness will be right." Jiang Yu stood up and bowed and said hoarsely, and handed over the document.
"Sir, I am also very sad. It is normal for you to go to pay tribute to your close relatives, and I want to go to pay tribute together." Zhao Bing informed Jiang Qi as soon as possible after receiving the news. Now he could not refuse his grief, but he still put the documents aside and persuaded him, "But I think about the matter of resignation. Now, the state is difficult, and it is time to use people. Moreover, Jiangnan has been trapped in the enemy. Returning to the hometown to maintain filial piety is not the time. It is better to ask the palace manager to return to his hometown to be buried with a grand funeral."
"Your Highness, the situation is tense and complicated. Qiongzhou still needs your highness to preside over it. Just go to Zhizhou Island alone." Jiang Xu said in a daze.
"The Jiang Transportation Envoy's words are reasonable, Your Highness should not leave you easily." Ying Jieyan took the speech and said, "The Palace Commander is righteous and sacrifices his life for the country. Now he is martyred to save His Majesty. He will definitely not want to see his children abandoning the state affairs for him and guarding the tomb for him. Let's listen to Your Highness!"
"The Palace Commander died in a martyrdom, and the country lost its pillars, and the heaven and earth were both sad. Lord Jiang also asked for mercy. But since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved at the same time. Lord Gong should still put national affairs first. I would be very pleased to think that the Palace Commander is in the sky." Deng Guangjian sighed and tried to keep him.
"Mr. Jiang, the battle in Qiongzhou is coming soon, and the affairs in the mansion are complicated. Please mourn me for the Lord." Gao Yingsong also advised.
"Thank you, Zong Bao has been with his uncle since he was a child, and when he was born, he was devoted to his teachings. I was extremely guilty of not being able to fulfill my filial piety in front of me, so I could only burn incense in front of my tomb and clean up my filial piety." Jiang Qi bowed to everyone.
"I would like to ask the sir to think more. The palace commander is a talent of the country. I also receive more favors. For the sake of emotion and reason, I need to go to worship. Let's go tomorrow!" Zhao Bing knew that the ancients had many rituals. Even if they wanted to stay, they had to resign repeatedly to show their filial piety. He had to keep them again and again to show his respect. Finally, he ordered not to be allowed to worry about things that were in accordance with the rules. However, it was not too late to go to the court to pay condolences. It was also a good time to see the reactions in the court, and of course, it was mainly to see if the young emperor was frightened and ill as recorded in history.
However, Zhao Bing was still very sorry for Jiang Wanzai's death. He secretly blamed in his heart that Jiang Wanzai still did not obey his advice. When leaving Jiazi Town, he secretly told Jiang Wanzai that he had dreamed that he had fallen into the water in the storm and was swept away by the wind and waves. Therefore, he must not leave the cabin in the storm, and arrange for his good guard to accompany him at all times to avoid business accidents. But he still could not block the rolling wheels of history, which made Zhao Bing feel very depressed, and doubted whether he could really shake history.
What made Zhao Bing even more uneasy was that Chen Yizhong's departure from Chameng City had broken the situation of the three-legged rank in the court. However, Jiang Wanzai was highly respected and deeply trusted by the empress dowager, so Zhang Shijie still had to take his attitude into consideration when he acted. Now that Jiang Wanzai died, he completely lost the checks and balances, and the court was the only one. Zhang Shijie was a pure martial artist who lacked the overall situation and the experience of handling political affairs. If he acted freely, he would not know where he would lead the court.
"Your Highness must not go. Now our General's Mansion and the imperial court have become evil. If we go, I don't know what will happen!" Zhao Mengjin said anxiously when he heard His Highness insisting on going. He didn't want those literati to speak in a roundabout way, and to hint you indirectly, clenched his fists and let people guess, but said bluntly that the conflict between the General's Mansion and the imperial court is difficult to reconcile.
"What Zhao Dutong said is exactly. Those people have coveted our general's mansion for a long time. When the palace commander is there, they can still restrain themselves. If Your Highness takes risks, it is tantamount to falling into the trap!" Liu Zhu also firmly opposed it.
