"The fighter plane is fleeting, so please make a quick decision, Your Majesty!"
At this moment, Qian Zerui, Prince Zhao Yi of Wuwei County and others also stood up and advised Emperor Shaolong to obey the public opinion and make a quick decision instead of causing any trouble.
Not to mention Pingliang County Duke Xu Huai's extraordinary skill and impressive achievements that can be called a miracle in recent years, Liu Yan and Yang Qiye, who are in charge of the Xiaosheng Army on the left and right, and Gu Fan and Deng Gui, who are in charge of the Huaidong Army, have all been publicly or semi-disclosed.
Publicly siding with Beijing and Xiangzhou, the government and opposition parties have become completely unbalanced and tilted towards Beijing and Xiangzhou.
In addition to the Dongchuan and West Qin troops at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, Dayue had a total of 250,000 elite soldiers between Jinghu and Jianghuai.
Not to mention whether the Jingxiang troops and horses should be more elite and powerful, whether the equipment should be better, and whether the generals' will to fight should be firmer. In terms of sheer numbers, the scale of the troops controlled by the Jingxiang clique is already five.
There are four of them, and the Qiandi system only accounts for one of them, so what else can cause trouble?
Needless to say, Zhao Yi, the king of Wuwei County, Qian Zerui, Xu Wei, and Wen Hengyue became famous as guards in Taiyuan. Later, they were deeply trusted by Emperor Jianji and served as privy councilors, Zhizhigao, and Shangshu Zuocheng.
Deep down in my heart, I don’t want to see earth-shaking civil strife and drastic changes in Dai Viet.
Especially now, the Red Guards' iron cavalry are still trampling and trampling on the land of the Central Plains. Countless Central Plains people are still struggling under the Red Guards' iron hoofs, suffering from ravage and destruction.
If this matter is not resolved within the framework of the court, do we really hope that Jingxiang and Xiang will use other means to achieve their goals?
Qian Zerui didn't know how the situation would change in the future. For him, it was time to withdraw from the court, but he didn't want the last layer of window paper to be ruthlessly torn apart at this moment.
"Okay, okay, okay, you guys..."
Emperor Shaolong looked at the ministers in the palace standing up to excuse Xu Huai's unauthorized use of troops. He was so angry that he said several "good" words, but he didn't know how to continue.
"Your Majesty, I think back then Chihu made an appointment with us and the DPRK to join forces to attack the Khitan, and when we were about to achieve success, he brazenly tore up the alliance and shamelessly attacked our Yan army, leaving hundreds of thousands of generals dead. Why does Dai Viet need to fight with cruelty and no purpose?
Faith, what kind of faith can the unrighteous bandits say? But the Holy Emperor Tianxuan is still trapped in Mobei, his homeland in the Central Plains, and hundreds of millions of common people are still struggling under the iron cavalry of the Red Guards to drive out the barbarians, recover the Central Plains, and welcome back the Holy Emperor Tianxuan.
It is a great righteousness. Your Majesty must not be deceived by the captors and become benevolent to women and forget the fundamental righteousness of the world..."
Zhu Hang knew that if he stood up and spoke at this time, it would only intensify Emperor Shaolong's resentment towards him, but there were some words that he kept in his heart and would not say them out. At this time, he stood up and advised them.
In his heart, he still hoped that Emperor Shaolong would wake up and understand that as long as he held high the banner of "driving out the Hulu and recovering the Central Plains", he could still restrain Beijing and Xiangyang.
After all, this is also the banner held by Jingxiang. At least at this time, Jingxiang will not cut down this banner by himself.
He often visited Zhu's house when he was young. He heard people say that Zhu Hang had a chivalrous spirit, and secretly thought to himself, if those people back then saw that Zhu Hang could still put on a serious face and seemed to be full of sincerity, would they feel sorry for him back then?
Feeling ashamed of being judged?
Maybe when the anger reaches the extreme, people will become calm.
What's more, Emperor Shaolong has had a yin character since he was a child.
He still holds his chest tight after all
The imaginary anger did not show up again.
Of course, before Emperor Shaolong convened a meeting with ministers, he also listened to Wang Boqian, Wei Chujun and others' persuasion. Wang Boqian, Wei Chujun and Ning Ci all earnestly advised him on many truths.
But at this moment, I suddenly learned from Dong Cheng that Zhu Zhi had been exiled to Lizhou for more than two years as a punishment. He had completely fallen into the trap that Jingxiang and the Zhu family had planned long ago. I couldn't hold back my heart for a while.
The evil fire is also human nature.
At this time, everyone in the palace stood up to defend Xu Huai. Wang Boqian, Wei Chujun, Ning Ci, Zhang Xin and others were sitting there like dogs in water, with no sign of any intention to struggle to the death. Emperor Shaolong also couldn't help it at this moment.
Feeling desolate, he waved his hands in despair and said:
"Just do as the ministers have agreed, I am a little tired!"
There are two systems in operation when Dai Viet drafts and issues edicts:
One is that the palace directly calls Hanlin scholars to prepare edicts and promulgate them, which is an internal system; the other is that Zhongshu Sheren or Zhizhi drafts the imperial edicts, and then the imperial edicts are promulgated and promulgated by all the road supervisors through Zhongshu's sect, which is an external system.
Of course, Xu Huaijia conferred the power of appointing and recruiting soldiers and horses across the world, and it was only issued in the form of imperial edicts outside the political hall. This was slightly insufficient, but it added
You can leave the sealing of the emperor's seal to the last step, there is no need to dwell on it at this time.
Everyone stood up and respectfully sent Emperor Shaolong back to his palace.
Later, Zhou He stood in the hall, looked at everyone and said:
"Perhaps Your Majesty is really tired. I cannot disturb Your Majesty's tranquility with trivial matters. However, the military situation is urgent, and we must come up with specific provisions as soon as possible to support Duke Pingliang in encircling and destroying the enemies on the south bank. This matter is the most urgent and cannot be delayed -
- Sir, will you follow me to the political hall now to discuss all matters?"
Zhou He served as his servant Zuo She and his servant, also known as Zuo Xiang. He was the actual prime minister and the prime minister above other prime ministers. Of course, he had the power to summon ministers to discuss military and political affairs.
Leave it to the emperor to decide.
A group of people followed Zhou He to the Political Affairs Hall to discuss the plan. When they saw Ning Ci, Zhang Xin, and Qian Shangduan standing in the hall in a daze, Wei Chujun raised his hands to the three of them and said: "You three, also go to the Political Affairs Hall first.
Once you hear it, the Prime Minister and I will come later."
Ning Ci, Zhang Xin, and Qian Shangduan guessed that Wei Chujun might have something else to say and wanted to take Wang Bo to tell His Majesty secretly. They didn't want them to know, so they immediately got up and left the Chui Gong Hall.
"Old Zhou He's attitude of 'disease is over like a mountain' is really disgusting, but in this situation, we must fight for this righteous status!" Wei Chujun said to Wang Boqian.
"You think those words were said by that bitch Zhu Hang?" Wang Boqian asked in a daze.
Wei Chujun nodded and said: "We don't care who said this, but Holy Emperor Tianxuan is still trapped in Mobei, his homeland in the Central Plains, and hundreds of millions of common people are still struggling under the iron cavalry of the Red Guards. This is a fact that no one can deny.
.And Dayue established its dynasty with filial piety, expelled the barbarians, regained the Central Plains, and welcomed Emperor Xuan Sheng back to heaven. This has become a great righteousness that no one can easily deny. Jingxiang said this through Zhu Hang's mouth. I guess Jingxiang meant this.
At that time, we should not have dared to ignore our righteousness and do things that were rebellious, so we blindly urged us to make concessions so that we could further seize military and political power. However, if we say that there is still a chance to curb Xu Huai's ambition, what can we actually do at present
, and indeed want to fight for this rightful name, and even hold on to this rightful name, hold Jingxiang up high and trap them."
Seeing that Wang Boqian was a little confused, Wei Chujun continued to explain:
"At this time, not only can we not accuse Xu Huai of sending troops without authorization, but we should also give him a thumbs up and praise him for his 'soldiers never tire of deceit'. We must stand up confidently and say that there is no need to say anything to the Hulu who owe a lot of blood debt.
Morality and integrity. In this way, we can turn "Submit the enemy without fighting" into a part of "Soldiers never tire of deceit". At least we will not let Jingxiang use this matter to stir up trouble between the government and the public to attack His Majesty, let alone give Jingxiang an excuse to do so.'
The matter of Qingjun's side..."
"You mean, we should cooperate with that old man in everything at this time, and cooperate with Jingxiang in everything?" Wang Boqian said, "Jingxiang wants to mobilize Shouchun soldiers and horses to participate in the war, so we should allow it, and allow it?"
Wei Chujun nodded and said: "As long as Jingxiang still acts in the name of 'driving out the barbarians and regaining the Central Plains', we have to cooperate; and only in this way, even if Xu Huai can no longer hold back his ambition,
, If you want to act in the opposite direction, you can let more people see his true face clearly, so that they will betray their relatives and alienate them. At that time, the situation may be slightly improved..."
"Okay, let's just listen to your plan. Your Majesty, I will be able to enlighten you." Wang Boqian said thoughtfully.
Wei Chujun saw Wang Boqian's approval, and the two of them left the palace and walked to the Political Affairs Hall.
They rushed to the political hall. Zhu Hang, Qian Zerui, Wuwei County Prince Zhao Yi and others had already left. Ning Ci, Zhang Xin and Qian Shangduan were sitting aside, while Wang Fan, Dong Cheng and others were with Zhou He, Gao Chun
Nian Zheng was chatting and laughing - Zhu Tong, who had not been qualified to participate in the palace discussion before, also appeared in the political hall at this time.
Seeing Wang Boqian, Wei Chujun came over, and Gao Chunnian stood up and said: "Pingliang Gong has been given the task of raising soldiers and horses from all over the world, and recruiting soldiers and horses from all over the world. After the edict is drawn up, His Majesty still needs to seal it. It can be delayed for a few days, but Shouchun soldiers and horses
There was no delay in participating in the war. Fortunately, the Prime Minister could use his seal for this matter. Another thing is that after years of fierce fighting in Huaixi, the imperial court had any instructions. Many palace servants were sent to convey the decree, and the generals thought that the imperial court was neglecting them. Especially Yan
The imperial court had not known which Khitan generals were commanding the additional cavalry, so it was really unpleasant to hear this news. We were thinking that while Prime Minister Zhou's condition was getting better, Prime Minister Zhou went to Huaixi to work for the army on His Majesty's behalf.
It further demonstrates the imperial court’s support and approval for Duke Pingliang’s unconventional attack on the Hulu…”
Wei Chujun looked at Zhou He, Wang Fan and others suspiciously, secretly wondering if this was Jing Xiang reciprocating love to Zhou He, an old man?
If the enemy on the south bank of the Huaihe River can really be completely annihilated this time, it will definitely be a game-changing battle. Zhou He went to Huaixi to labor the army and supervise the war. This is destined to be recorded in history.
And Zhou He has such an aura, no matter whether there will be any new conflicts with Jingxiang in the future, Jingxiang will not touch him easily.
Just like Qian Zerui is not likable, but as one of the three lonely ministers guarding Taiyuan, after Emperor Shaolong succeeded to the throne, he even kicked Hu Kai out of the court and did not think about touching Qian easily.
Cheerui.
Wen Hengyue's health was indeed getting worse day by day. After allowing him to retire and return to his hometown, in addition to becoming the Duke of Jin Dynasty, Emperor Shaolong also sent envoys to Wen Hengyue's old home in Fujian to express his condolences during the holidays.
"The Prime Minister can also go together." Wang Fan cupped his hands towards Wang Boqian and said.
Xu Huai still has to do his best to win the current battle. As long as Wang Boqian, Wei Chujun and Emperor Shaolong don't break up with each other or lift the table, he will still do enough to save face. As the saying goes, "give face"...
